How about the science that says that the average IQ of black people is 80? Will that science be at the forefront of the Biden administration? Or will it be a case of ‘some science is more equal than others’?

The Lincoln Project is a Democratic-aligned super PAC founded by schlubby white dudes with inflated egos and an unhealthy internet addiction. Despite raking in millions of dollars from wealthy libs in 2020, the group’s efforts to unseat incumbent GOP senators were not successful.
Lincoln Project cofounders such as Steve Schmidt, the former Republican strategist whose most notable achievement was persuading John McCain to choose Sarah Palin as his running mate in 2008, believe they are on the front lines of a noble crusade to defend American democracy.
Schmidt, a multimillionaire, regularly appears on MSNBC to attack Republicans from the comfort of his gaudy mansion. During one such appearance on the left-wing network, Schmidt went so far as to compare the Lincoln Project’s efforts to annoy Donald Trump and elect Democrat politicians to those of the actual heroes who risked their lives during the American Revolution, the Civil War, World War II, and the civil-rights movement.

Radical liberal activists are in your head. They’ve conquered what passes for “mainstream media.” They’ve infiltrated Hollywood, social media, academia, and the Democratic Party. Now they’ve co-opted Madison Avenue. You cannot escape. Not if you watch television. Every ten minutes? A four-minute commercial break. Four minutes of clamoring, yammering, coaxing, cajoling, pandering in seven-, ten-, fifteen-, thirty-, and sixty-second spots. You think they are pushing insurance, breakfast cereal, gymnasiums, or chef-prepared home-delivered meals. You are only 25 percent right.

“I lost two legs for Jake Tapper’s right to say whatever the hell he wants,” Mast told the Free Beacon in response to Tapper’s Wednesday remark. “But that free speech also protects the Republicans he is so eager to condemn for asking constitutional questions about the election.”

The Democrats having a lot of elderly leaders like Pelosi and Biden means they aren’t thinking terribly far ahead about the long term impact of their racist hate speech. They will already be dead and gone when their chickens come home to roost.

America’s public schools are owned lock, stock and barrel by the Democratic Party, so it is no surprise that they are now echoing their party’s line on last week’s events. I have seen several partisan emails from school districts; this one comes from my own district….

The Other McCain blows the whistle.
In 1998, University of Wisconsin historian David Henige published Numbers from Nowhere: The American Indian Contact Population Debate, in which he examined how, during the late 20th century, academics began arguing that the indigenous population of the Western hemisphere before the arrival of Europeans was much larger than previously estimated. This origins of this argument can be located rather precisely, with the 1966 publication of an article by Henry F. Dobyns in the journal Current Anthropology. Dobyns cited evidence that the native population had been devastated by pandemic diseases — particularly smallpox but also influenza, diphtheria and other contagions — brought to the Americas by European explorers and colonists.

David Director Friedman blows the whistle.
Poll information about how many Americans would take a vaccine is not evidence about how many people must be immune to achieve herd immunity. By Fauci’s own account, his changed statement reflected not what the scientific evidence showed but what he thought it prudent to tell people it did. He had just publicly admitted, in the New York Times, that he was a liar.

In the front rank of the cast of heroes and villains of 2020 is Andy Cuomo, the feckless Governor of New York, a villain. He preened while New York burned. His policy of sending covid-infected patients into nursing homes killed thousands, while he tried to obscure the disaster by misleadingly reporting covid deaths.

The CBS Evening News was proud of the double standard they applied to Republicans and Democrats. During their Monday newscast, national correspondent Manuel Bojorquez chided Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) for threatening to take vaccine doses from hospitals not distributing them fast enough. But in the same report, he touted New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) for threatening to fine hospitals $100,000 for the same thing.

Guess which state has been more successful fighting back COVID-19—Florida or New York? According to the media, the answer is obvious: New York, on account of its totally awesome Gov. Andrew Cuomo. In fact the death rate per 100,000 people in Florida is about half that of New York (96 per 100K for Florida, versus 188 per 100K in New York).
Over on Twitter, DC communications pro Drew Holden has put together a terrific thread showing the appalling press favoritism for Cuomo alongside the obvious media hostility for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Here are a few of the samples he has juxtaposed.

As the Trump era draws to a close and not a single journalist has ever been jailed or probed in leak investigations like Team Obama probed reporters and their leakers, some journalists can admit it’s been a pretty rewarding gig to oppose President Trump furiously.
McKay Coppins of The Atlantic – a very partisan magazine – penned an article headlined “The Resistance’s Breakup With the Media Is At Hand.” He admitted “In the Trump era, many Washington reporters became resistance heroes, showered with book deals, TV contacts, and Twitter followers.” Journalists couldn’t be distinguished from protesters, and the fame and fortune was irresistible

Whether it was parroting the Democrat’s overt lies or even touting his wife’s so-called medical qualifications, the candidate could always count on the talk show hosts to volunteer as his PR team.

In the last several weeks, now that the election is over, MSNBC production teams have been struggling to keep track of which of the network’s pretend Republican analysts are actually still identifying as Republicans.
Most recently, on Sunday’s PoliticsNation show, host Al Sharpton incorrectly identified MSNBC political analyst Elise Jordan as a “Republican strategist,” as did the chyron, even though she has previously admitted on the network that she is no longer a Republican. But, on the Sunday show, Jordan did not even bother to correct him.
They’ll even let Mitt Romney claim to be a Republican, which is like claiming that Bernie Sanders is a conservative.
