While mainstream pro-government “news” claims July 4 was earth’s hottest day, all recognized data indicates we are living in a cool period.

All western “mainstream” (meaning government-supported and supporting) media have been trumpeting the notion that mankind is currently experiencing the hottest days on record. But true global temp records (meaning satellite measurements) have only existed for around 40 years.

Prior to the satellite era (mid-1970s and beyond) the earth was covered very spottily by long-term thermometers. Most long-term thermometer stations were found in the United States and western Europe.

So government data manipulators have simply made up temperature data for other parts of the world.

The great data analyst Tony Heller has produced an informative video on this topic.

Harvard survey: Most Americans don’t want to live in states with strict gun control

A new Harvard Center for American Political Studies/Harris poll of 2,000 Americans finds the vast majority of respondents don’t want to live in states with stricter gun control laws.

 66% of survey respondents told pollsters they’d prefer to live in a state that doesn’t treat their right to keep and bear arms as a criminal offense.

California State Dental Director deleted data indicating fluoride in water lowers IQs

Scandals arising from government “public health” officials’ harmful impositions keep coming. Now there is evidence that California’s “State Dental Director,” Dr. Jayanth Kumar, published a meta-analysis in the journal Public Health that purported to show that fluoridated water is not associated with reduced IQ.

But an expert who works with Dr. Kumar noticed that Dr. Kumar had knowingly removed references to data which indicated that typical levels of fluoride in drinking water IS, IN FACT associated with reduced IQ scores. The State “Dental Director” was thus CAUGHT RED-HANDED providing false information designed to harm the public.

As of this writing, there is no information regarding whether this evil official faces any repercussions or accountability at all. (We predict he’ll soon be promoted to the highest levels in “public health.”)

Hollywood celebs scramble to dodge taxes they themselves promoted

The miserable socialist state of Los Angeles, California recently imposed a measure to tax the city’s wealthiest residents for the supposed purpose of providing housing for the homeless. But “[e]ven before voters passed the measure,  bringing a 4% transfer tax on all property sales above $5 million and 5.5% on sales above $10 million in the city of L.A.,” according to the LA Times, many of the very pro-government extremists who promoted the measure were already plotting ways to get around the additional taxes.

Brad Pitt, for instance, sold his Hollywood Hills home for $39 million in the last days of March. By doing so, he avoided a $2.145-million tax bill.

Mark Wahlberg unloaded his Beverly Park mega-mansion for $55 million in February, saving $3.025 million in taxes by selling it before April 1.

Other big names whose real estate deals avoided the tax include Colin Farrell, who sold his Los Feliz villa to a YouTuber for $5.25 million in March, and “Big Bang Theory” star Simon Helberg, who hauled in $7.8 million for a 1930s Spanish Colonial-style retreat. The deal closed on March 31, the day before the tax took effect.

Endeavor CEO Ari Emanuel sold his traditional-style home near Brentwood Country Club in February for $14.5 million, staggeringly shy of his original asking price of $25.9 million.

By selling before April, he saved roughly $800,000 he would have owed under ULA. In May, The Times reported that Emanuel has made around $347 million in total pay over the last five years and donated millions to charity.

“In the long term, if the accountants, attorneys and financial advisors employed by the rich can find ways to skirt the tax, revenue from the measure will be far shy of the $900 million annually that was originally projected,” according to the Times.

Most voters want budget cuts, prefer temporary government shutdown to more debt.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 54% of U.S. voters would prefer a partial government shutdown until Democrats and Republicans can agree to either cut spending or keep it at its current level.

These finding contradict the claims of the government classes that federal spending and debt limits must be increased. See here.

Efforts are underway to nationalize “news” in the U.S.

Every government that ever existed has sought to control and regulate “the news” about itself. Untold thousands have died on gallows or chained in dungeons for publishing or spreading news or information which governments didn’t like.

In the United States there has traditionally been greater freedom of speech and press than in other societies. But the increasing pro-government bias in news (often secretly paid for by government itself) has led to fewer and fewer Americans paying for news content. According to a 2022 report from Northwestern’s Medill School of Journalism, the US loses newspapers “at a rate of two per week.”

A 2018 study from the University of North Carolina found 1,800 local newspapers had shuttered in the US since 2004.

Now there are efforts to turn “news” into a type of religion or charity, as in other countries.

Steven Waldman, co-founder of Report for America, said a new initiative, called Rebuild Local News, wanted to revitalize hundreds of local news outlets across America decimated by changes in the industry, shifts in the sector’s advertising revenue structure and more recently, the pandemic.

The Rebuild Local News coalition is pushing for a comprehensive list of tax credits to keep afloat local newsrooms, such as a tax refund for local news digital subscribers, payroll tax credits for hiring and retaining local reporters, and a tax credit for small businesses to advertise in local news outlets.

Waldman and his coalition estimate that it would bring in $3.5bn of relief to the local news economy via “philanthropy, businesses, consumers and the government”.

Reason is finally publishing some decent stories–about the Deep State’s drive to deplatform it.

Reason magazine is the monthly print magazine of “free minds and free markets.” Founded in 1968, the magazine became a mainstay of libertarian, anti-government thought, news and commentary.

But libertarian critics of Reason have long noted certain blind spots in Reason’s coverage. Reason never, ever delved into any “conspiracy theory” questions or analysis of deep-state agendas which might extend beyond conventional politics on display in mainstream news sources. Never did Reason question official narratives regarding climate change, the JFK assassination, 9/11, the 2020 election, or other taboo topics.

Reason’s “science” editor Ronald Bailey makes sure to never write about NOAA’s fabrication of temperature data, or the possibility that COVID-19 was just a strain of flu that was trumpeted by an orchestrated agenda to impose global digital ID mandates.

But it seems that the deep state’s social-credit agenda has caught up with Reason; and Reason is now threatened with serious consequences for simply offering any libertarian content. On February 14, Reason’s Robby Soave reported that a global disinformation spotting’ institution (one of dozens that seem to have suddenly popped up in the last 5 years) had labeled Reason one of the “ten riskiest online news outlets.”

And the alleged ‘disinfo tracker,’ is government funded. Specifically, the “Global Disinformation Index” (GDI), a British organization that “evaluates news outlets’ susceptibility to disinformation” with the aim of persuading online advertisers to blacklist dangerous publications,” is funded with millions of dollars from the U.S. State Department.

Robby Soave pointed out that GDI’s alleged criteria for identifying ‘disinformation’ is less than objective and contradictory. And every single one of the “riskiest online news outlets” share a common trait: they produce anti-government content. Thus, while the “index” purports to be a tool for evaluating the accuracy of news, it is actually a tool for deplatforming information sources which governments disagree with.

500,000 Californians flee within 2 years

California’s beautiful shores, mountains and landscapes have historically been naturally inviting to millions. But in recent decades, the State government has sought to transform the Golden State into a socialist utopia. California has some of the world’s highest taxes, and some of the most onerous business regulations.

During the 2020 COVID-19 panic, California government officials imposed some of the most extreme lockdowns and mandates found anywhere on earth. Schoolchildren are still not allowed to attend public schools unless they submit to injections of government-approved “vaccine” products.

More recently, the California legislature has discussed imposing extreme wealth taxes on millionaires and billionaires.

The result is that hundreds of thousands of the most creative and productive Californians have pulled their kids out of public schools and fled to freer states. This flight of productivity is cratering California’s tax revenues, and the state public pension funds will soon be in dire straights.

Stay tuned!

100,000 nurses left the industry from 2020 to 2021

The Bronx. Jan. 16. America’s 3 million nurses were on the front lines of the alleged COVID-19 “pandemic” over the past three years. These nurses likely became the most naturally-immune segment of the population from the earliest months of the outbreak in 2020.

Then came December 2020, when the government and Big Pharma rolled out alleged mRNA “vaccines.” Soon President Biden issued executive orders mandating vast swaths of the industry must submit to experimental MRNA injections. Thousands more quit, were fired for refusing, or became injured from the shots.

Now it is reported that 100,000 nurses left the U.S. medical system between 2020 and 2021.
