And this is an EPIC move on Elon's part. Twit hiding information from Elon, but they must disclose this in court. Prepare to have some information sealed when it does go to court.
I am sure they will say it is a privacy issue with their fake users...

Good News Friday


Dear Patriots,


We found numerous places this week where we are seeing good news.

1- It is always good to see states fighting back against federal overreach and coercion.
Breitbart

Biden Administration Sued for Tying K-12 Gender Ideology to Lunch Money
QUOTE: The Biden administration's drive to link the provision of federal school lunch money to compliance with gender identity ideology was challenged Tuesday by 22 states saying they would take the matter to court. As Breitbart News reported, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) last month announced in order for schools to receive funds for student lunches, breakfasts, and other food items, they must comply with its interpretation of the ban on discrimination based on sex in Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and other food-related programs, which includes sexual orientation and gender identity.

Schools awarded money from the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), an agency within USDA, must specify in their policies that discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation is prohibited, the department confirmed. It also said allegations of such discrimination must be investigated.

Now states are pushing against the demand for "correct" ideology to be linked to state provision of food and nutrition.

"We all know the Biden administration is dead-set on imposing an extreme left-wing agenda on Americans nationwide," Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita, who is leading the 22-state lawsuit, said in a statement as seen by UPI new outlet. "But they've reached a new level of shamelessness with this ploy of holding up food assistance for low-income kids unless schools do the left's bidding."

The 22 states, which are mostly Republican-controlled, named in the lawsuit are Indiana, Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia and West Virginia.

2- People who got the Clot Shot are contagious longer than those who resisted being injected.

(STUDY) 'Unvaccinated' Covid patients contagious for 'shorter period of time' than 'vaccinated'
QUOTE: A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that people vaccinated against Covid-19 remained contagious with the virus for a longer period of time than their unvaccinated counterparts.

The disparity in contagiousness was particularly pronounced between the unvaccinated and individuals who did not receive a booster shot.

The findings were published in a letter to the editor signed by dozens of doctors from a variety of hospitals in Boston, Massachusetts in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine in June.

When the data was separated into the categories "unvaccinated," "vaccinated," and "boosted," individuals who did not receive a Covid-19 vaccine were contagious for a shorter period of time.

3- Even the Beverly Hills leftist elites have figured out the mask mandate grift.

This needs to be a national reaction to corrupt blue-state governors, blue-city mayors and blue-city and county councils who try this again.

Beverly Hills votes unanimously not to enforce potential LA County COVID mask mandate
QUOTE: The Beverly Hills City Council has voted unanimously to not enforce a COVID-19 mask requirement, as Los Angeles County considers whether to reinstate the policy.

"I feel it is our job to lead, and I support the power of choice," Beverly Hills Mayor Lili Bosse said Monday evening after the vote, Fox News reported. Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger also opposes universal mask mandates."The current COVID-19 wave is different from other ones: many people are getting infected, but the majority are not becoming seriously ill," she said in an open letter Monday.She also said mask mandates are "polarizing and unenforceable," and are not supported by the data.

4- Many people who were vilified by the left over Covid-CCP are being proven to have been correct from the start.
Washinton Examiner

QUOTE: Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has been heavily criticized by those on the Left for fighting back against mask and vaccine mandates. He was censored by Big Tech and vilified by Democratic politicians who claimed Paul's efforts to not "trust the science" was detrimental to the country. Yet, over time, as more and more data have become available, it is evident that it was the Democrats who were harmful to the country, not the Kentucky Republican. Consider the recent admission by Dr. Deborah Birx regarding the efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines.
Birx, the former White House COVID response coordinator, stated in an interview with Neil Cavuto on Fox News that she knew the vaccines wouldn't stop infections. Birx's comments align with what Paul was saying last year regarding the vaccines and the sycophantic nature in which Democrats were pushing them on the public.

"I knew these vaccines were not going to protect against infection," Birx said. "And I think we overplayed the vaccines, and it made people then worry that it's not going to protect against severe disease and hospitalization. It will. But let's be very clear: 50% of the people who died from the omicron surge were older, vaccinated."

Consider Paul's comments in an exchange with Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra last September. Paul challenged Becerra on the efficacy of vaccines compared to natural immunity. At the time, Paul was one of only a few people who challenged those in charge, and he was criticized, condemned, and vilified by many left-wingers for it. Some even claimed Paul's words were causing people to die. As it turns out, Paul was right, and they were wrong.

5- Even families in New York are diving out of the public school system.

New York school officials pointed to national trends of decreased enrollment, attributing that to diminished birthrates, a lack of affordability, and relocations during the pandemic.

Why do they never mention CRT, leftist indoctrination, or sexually grooming kids? Nor do they mention arrogant teachers, union goons, and administrators who have tried to remove parents from their children's education.

NYPOST

QUOTE: Projections from the Office of Student Enrollment, shared with The Post Friday, showed the city Department of Education expects to enroll roughly 28,100 fewer students this fall, and another 2,300 students by the end of the school year.
"We have a massive hemorrhaging of students — massive hemorrhaging. We're in a very dangerous place in the number of students that we are dropping,"Mayor Eric Adams said.
Roughly 120,000 students have fled the public school system over the last five years, according to the DOE.
Officials also pointed to national trends of decreased enrollment, attributing that to diminished birthrates, a lack of affordability, and relocations during the pandemic.

6- Shocking story from a teacher who refused to bend to the propaganda. We need more teachers this strong and determined!
Legal Insurrection

Victory – I'm A Teacher Who Blew The Whistle On CRT In Schools, Suffered Retaliation, But Now I've Prevailed
QUOTE: After spending 9 months in a windowless basement after involuntary transfer to a school that didn't want me, the Providence School District has given up fighting my legal grievance. Starting September I will have a permanent classroom assignment. Now, I can continue to teach children the truth about this great nation.
QUOTE: On July 13, 2021, I blew the whistle at Legal Insurrection on how a new Critical Race curriculum in the Providence, Rhode Island, middle school where I taught was creating racial hostility, turning students and staff against me because I was white, and turning students against their country.
My students, almost all of whom were minority, started calling me "America" because I was white — You are America, they would say, we are not. How could I keep silent seeing what the Critical Race curriculum was doing to the students and our society?
My story gained national print and television coverage, and even international media attention.
What followed was a year of retaliation, harassment, intimidation, and involuntary transfer to another school where there was no teaching position for me. I was forced to spend a year alone in a windowless empty school basement resource room, as students and staff passed by and gawked at me like I was some strange caged zoo animal, audibly mumbling how I was that 'racist' teacher they had been warned about.
I fought the district legally with the help of James Peterson at Judicial Watch, and I am emerging from the basement victorious, with a full-time regular classroom assignment. I am unbowed, and more committed to fighting the CRT scourge than ever before.

7- This is good news. However, do not be lulled into complacency. Research your candidates, work for them.
PJ Media

Republicans Increase Generic Congressional Ballot Lead to Double Digits
QUOTE: As the 2022 midterms loom ever closer, Republicans have increased their generic ballot lead by two points in the last fortnight. The latest Rasmussen Reports poll, released Friday, reveals that voters are ready to cast a ballot for Republicans over Democrats by a 10-point margin — 49% to 39%. This is a two-point improvement from the July 9 survey, which had generic Republicans up over Democrats by eight points (47% to 39%).
The last time control of Congress changed hands, in 2018, Democrats held a seven-point generic Congressional ballot advantage among likely voters in July (47% to 40%). The spread tightened to a statistical dead heat by Election Day. When the dust settled, Republicans had increased their hold on the Senate while Democrats had won a slim majority in the House.

But things are looking decidedly redder going into the 2022 midterm season.

The Republican lead on the congressional ballot is due both to greater GOP partisan intensity and a 17-point advantage among independents. While 89% of Republican voters say they would vote for their own party's congressional candidate, just 79% of Democrats would vote for the Democratic candidate. Among voters not affiliated with either major party, however, 44% would vote Republican and 27% would vote Democrat, while 10% would vote for some other candidate and 20% are undecided.

Lonestar Comeback! Texas adds greatest number of oil, natural gas jobs in recorded state history
QUOTE: Texas added the greatest number of jobs in the oil and natural gas industry in June in recorded state history.
More than 6,100 jobs were added in the upstream oil and natural gas sector from May to June, the highest monthly increase in recorded state history. The Texas Workforce Commission has been recording job data since 1990.
The last monthly industry jobs report record was broken in June 2011 when it added 5,600 jobs.
"U.S. policymakers are placing undue demands on energy producers," Texas Independent Producers and Royalty Owners Association (TIPRO) president Ed Longanecker said. "If we want price stability, and if we want to ensure a secure domestic energy supply, we need a stable regulatory environment in the U.S. Policymakers and the current administration must stop vilifying our industry and should work collaboratively with operators to develop a coherent federal energy policy strategy, including opening federal leasing, approving permitting for energy infrastructure and again providing the regulatory certainty needed to support long-term investments that are necessary to address our own energy needs and those of our allies abroad."

9- A win in New Mexico for voter transparency.
RSB Network

Judge issues an election integrity win in New Mexico
QUOTE: A federal judge has allowed an election transparency initiative to publish voter registration records publicly online to move forward despite objections from New Mexico election regulators.

Granting the preliminary injunction Friday, District Judge James O. Browning blocked defendants New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas and New Mexico Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver from prosecuting the plaintiff, Voter Reference Foundation (VRF), for publishing information it has already obtained as the case moves forward.

Following the judge's ruling, VRF issued a press release Monday stating that New Mexico's voter registration list would be republished on its VoteRef.com website, where most other states' voter registration data is publicly available.According to the release, VRF initially published the New Mexico data in December 2021 but took it down in March after Oliver referred the organization for prosecution and alleged via social media that VRF had broken the law.

In response, the election integrity group filed a lawsuit. "We won't be intimidated by politicians who, for some reason, don't want to give the people of their state easy access to election records they pay for," said Doug Truax, founder and president of Restoration of America, which created VRF. "We're committed to publishing the voter rolls in all 50 states, so the public can scrutinize the most important function of their government – running fair and accurate elections."

American Hero Jim Harbaugh Says He'll Raise Any Of His Staff, Players' Surprise Babies
QUOTE: University of Michigan head football coach Jim Harbaugh understands actions speak louder than words, which is why the former quarterback told ESPN this week that he and his wife will gladly raise any of his family members, staff, or players' surprise babies.

"I've told [them] the same thing I tell my kids, the boys, the girls, same thing I tell our players, our staff members. I encourage them if they have a pregnancy that wasn't planned to go through with it, go through with it. Let that unborn child be born, and if at that time, you don't feel like you can care for it, you don't have the means or the wherewithal, then Sarah and I will take that baby," Harbaugh said.

Harbaugh, a practicing Catholic whose top priorities are "faith, family, and football," said that to just ignore the truth about abortion would do a serious injustice to a "life-or-death type of issue."

"I believe in, and I respect, people's views. But let's hear them. Let's discuss them because there's passion on both sides of this issue. So when you combine that with respect, that's when the best results come. ... [I'm] just contributing to that conversation and that communication, which I think is really important, in my opinion," Harbaugh said.

Harbaugh's decision to walk the walk instead of just talk the talk is something thousands of Christian families in America have done. But not even the coach's generous offer to open his "big house" to any child who needs a place to grow and learn was enough to evade criticism from pro-abortionists in sports media.

Charlie Kirk & Kash Patel discuss the fact that the Hunter Biden & Durham investigations are happening simultaneously. Kash explains, “this Hunter Biden investigation is very expansive. It involves the current POTUS. It doesn’t get more direct linkage to the Oval Office than that… Who are the other cast of characters that helped them do it, because these two guys didn’t do it on their own… Once indictments start coming, people get thrown under the bus… and you will quickly learn how expansive this investigation is, once the first indictment happens.”

When does a bird sing?

Why do the red lines trend up, but the blue lines trend down? Are republicans not really the “fiscal conservatives” they claim to be?

Can we bring back Clinton or Obama again?
Fiscal policy is a fair criticism. Now throw out the 2020 COVID year as an outlier, and I'm with you. It's a bullshit graph trying to insinuate the spending in 2020. It also doesn't take into account that it takes TWO (parties) to do this fiscal tango.
 
Why do the red lines trend up, but the blue lines trend down?

There is a reason why it looks good when the democrats are in control. When democrats are in the spending goes up. When republican's are in control, they reel in the spending and put in the controls like tax cuts and corporate taxes that takes time for the deficit to be reflected in your chart. That is why all the democrat spending takes so long to take effect as it falls under a republican. The only difference in your chart is that the "huge" Trump jump in spending was due to COVID

So if we had two different democratic presidents back to back ( ie 16 years ) you will see the chart will prove me correct.
 
There is a reason why it looks good when the democrats are in control.
Well here I am feeding the troll again (not you Gargoile).
The reason is that it's more liberal propaganda claiming opposite of reality.

Why is the deficit attributed to somebody (the current president) who does not have the final authority over the budget? The spending is controlled mainly by the house, with agreement by the senate. Yes the president can and does spend much of the money, but he can only spend what congress has given him to spend. Why are there all of the "deficit by president" graphs out there, yet it's almost impossible to find a "deficit by house majority party" graph? The answer is again that it's liberal propaganda controlled by the liberal press. If there were a deficit by house majority party published, it would look damning for the democrats. That Clinton budget surplus is of course BS, attained by counting funds in the mythical social security trust fund. But if the liberals want to believe the surplus fantasy, they should also admit that who really controlled the budget those years, congress, was republican majority and give all the credit to them.
 
I wasn't in doubt, maybe they teach it differently now, but Communists were on the Left, Nazi's/Fascists on the Right. I don't look to YouTube for many "Facts", but as the old saying goes "opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one".

Were the Nazis Socialists?

Hitler himself Identified the NAZIs as socialists ... as did the leadership of the party .. just go to the primary sources, and if you have courage and conviction for knowledge you can go to the historians who themselves spent countless hours going through the primary sources and actually fact checking it ( not bs political "fact checking" Orwellian stuff we see today .. ) ( note: TikHIstory is a great example of a historian who goes to the primary sources and does a good job evaluating and analyzing the information .. better than all the educators below college level I had, and better than most of the professors I have had .. )

Honestly, the leftist in college also taught me that "Nazi's" were on the Right side of the Left-Right spectrum.

Truth is, once you start to really dig into that narrative you find that that current myth is not served well when you inspect it.

Analyze Communism vs Nazism.

What is the real difference? .. basically, Nationalism .. otherwise same socialist stuff ..

Personally I do not think the Left-vs-Right line is useful anymore as it has been misused and corrupted. A 2-d representation is better.

Change Article on Recessions to Match Biden Talking Points


An edit war broke out on Wikipedia this week over the definition of “recession,” as the Biden administration and the corporate media take the unprecedented step of denying the U.S. is in recession even after two consecutive quarters of negative growth. More than 70 edits to the page about recessions were made before the site locked the entry preventing further changes. The edits successfully de-emphasize the broad consensus definition of recession — two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth — instead parroting the Biden Administration’s talking points.

Editors of the leftist-dominated online encyclopedia are pushing a definition of “recession” that is unusually broad and favors the Biden administration’s claims that no recession has occurred. This definition, from the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), claims that a recession is a ” significant decline in economic activity spread across the market, lasting more than a few months.”

What was until recently the broad consensus on the definition of a recession — two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth — remains at the top of the page, but editors have been attempting to remove it. This definition is also described as the United Kingdom’s definition.

Bruh pic.twitter.com/qpY4Nd10Ns
— Edvard (@le_edvard) July 28, 2022
The article continues to note, further down the page in a section on the definition, that “in a 1975 New York Times article, economic statistician Julius Shiskin suggested several rules of thumb for defining a recession, one of which was ‘two down quarters of GDP.'”

In response to the edit war,senior Wikipedia editors have locked the page on recession, preventing users from making further snap edits to it. Articles that become the subject of contentious “edit wars” are often locked in this manner by Wikipedia administrators — but the lock comes after leftists successfully muddied the waters.

The new prominence of the NBER’s definition comes after the Biden administration began citing it in its arguments, backed by a sycophantic media, that the U.S. is not in recession.

Via Breitbart News:
White House advisers have repeatedly refused to define what a recession is, but they frequently cite the definition outlined by the National Bureau of Economic Research.

The Republican National Committee also dug up old quotes from Biden’s other economic adviser.

In May, Chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers Cecilia Rouse said during a CNN interview that “Typically, economists date a recession as being at least two quarters of negative growth, and other factors, which we have not seen at all.”

That NBER definition is now littered throughout the Wikipedia page on recessions.

Mexico’s president taunts Biden over energy policy trade fight: ‘Ooooh, I’m so scared’

There’s a brewing trade dispute between the U.S. and Mexico on energy policy, and it’s getting ugly fast.

“Ooooh, I’m so scared,” Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) said at a Wednesday press conference, referencing a popular Mexican song and taunting the Biden administration by ordering his staff to play it.

When reporters asked him how he proposes to solve the policy spat, AMLO was defiant: “Nothing will happen.”

What is going on here?

It started early on Wednesday, when U.S. officials argued that AMLO’s energy policies favor Mexico’s state-run electrical utility and oil companies and undermine American business.

The U.S. said it was seeking “dispute settlement consultations” under the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USCMA), a trade agreement meant to ensure balanced, reciprocal trading between North American nations. It was a first step in a process that could lead to tariffs on some Mexican products.

2. Now even the Mexican President is laughing at Dementia Joe. Same as Putin and China.
