NOTABLE QUOTES
Ray DiLorenzo contributor to Canada Free Press reflecting on election night 11/3/2020 wrote: The moment the counting stopped was the moment our country became a third-world nation.
Christopher Roach contributor to American Greatness wrote of the coming military purge: In the years ahead, we cannot rely on the uniformed military to resist Biden’s and Austin’s efforts. During the Trump years, many of the high-level military and civilian leadership actively or passively joined #TheResistance. But then, as now, they were merely following the political winds. Left-wing ideology is now becoming mandatory for the military and everyone else working for the government.
Theodore Malloch contributor to American Greatness wrote: In just 11 short days the guy who supposedly got 81 million votes from his basement in Delaware; the guy who truly cares so much about the “soul of the nation”; the guy who said he would work day and night to unite us; has quite literally ruined America. It is an amazing achievement. And all in just 11 short days. No dictator, social movement, civil war, or foreign invader has ever succeeded at destroying America before.
Bret Hume Fox News commentator: This particular impeachment … seems especially half-baked to me, in the sense the House acted in desperate haste to try to get it under the wire before the president had actually left the office, and it’s a single count. There was no investigation, no hearings, no witnesses called, no nothing, and they sent the whole thing over to the Senate, where there is no indication that enough Republicans would join Democrats to create the two-thirds needed to convict.
Bruce Castor President Trump’s defense attorney: Let’s understand why we are really here. We are really here because the majority in the House of Representatives does not want to face Donald Trump as a political rival in the future. That is the real reason we’re here, and that’s why they have to get over the jurisdictional hurdle, which they can’t get over, but that’s why they have to get over that in order to get to the part of the Constitution that allows removal.
Michael Cutler contributor to FrontPage magazine, challenging the call from Democrat and Republican leaders for the world’s best and brightest to come to America wrote: Where I come from (Brooklyn), we have a term for the world’s “best and brightest”- we call them Americans!
GOP
Zukerman: Calling out the Unholy Six Republican senators who voted to advance Trump’s impeachment trial
The Unholy Six have previously made clear their loathing for a now private citizen and have placed their personal disregard of former president Trump far above their duty to the Constitution and their responsibilities to their constituents. It is worth speculating that these sad excuses for Republicans — call them CRINOs (Craven Republicans In Name Only) — were emboldened by the example of Liz Cheney, who has shown that she can vituperate against the former president with the worst of Democrat anti-Trump propagandists and get away with it. What profit is there in turning to Republicans for succor against the self-aggrandizing, tyrannical Democrats if they lack the will to call to account the GOP turncoats in their own ranks? It is to be expected that the power-mad Democrats will place themselves not only above the law, but above our Constitution. It is unforgivable for elected Republicans to ignore people in their own ranks who are no more committed to the rule of law, to the Constitution, than the malevolent Democrats.

CHINA: AMERICA’S MORTAL ENEMY
Chang: China Is Creating a New Master Race
U.S. intelligence shows that China has conducted human testing on members of the People’s Liberation Army in hope of developing soldiers with biologically enhanced capabilities,” wrote then Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, in a December 3 Wall Street Journal op-ed titled “China Is National Security Threat No. 1.” All these Chinese moves are meant to obtain “biological dominance.” “There are,” as Ratcliffe noted, “no ethical boundaries to Beijing’s pursuit of power.” The experiment evoked the eugenics program of the Third Reich to create a “master race.” […] In a communist society with unrestrained ambition, researchers are pursuing weird science. What happens when you mix pig and monkey DNA? Chinese experimenters can tell you. How about growing human-like organs in animals? Yes, they have done that as well. Moreover, Beijing may already be engineering “super soldiers.” “U.S. intelligence shows that China has conducted human testing on members of the People’s Liberation Army in hope of developing soldiers with biologically enhanced capabilities,” wrote then Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, in a December 3 Wall Street Journal op-ed titled “China Is National Security Threat No. 1.”

Goodenough: WHO Investigators Discount Wuhan Lab-Leak Theory, Won’t Pursue It Further
A World Health Organization-convened team of experts investigating the source of the coronavirus ended a four-week visit to Wuhan on Tuesday discounting as “extremely unlikely” the theory that the virus may have leaked from a laboratory in the city. […] The Chinese Communist Party paper Global Times said the team’s decision to discount the lab hypothesis “completely refutes the conspiracy theory raised by some anti-China hawks, like former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who has been accusing the Wuhan Institute of Virology of leaking the virus.” Pompeo told Fox News on Tuesday that “not a thing” has changed in his views about the lab.

Renck: EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Cotton Slams World Health Org ‘Chinese Communist Stooges’ In Renewed Call For Independent Investigation Of Wuhan Labs
Cotton has questioned the origin of the coronavirus outbreak early in the pandemic, saying, “The reason I have raised these questions from the very beginning is because of China’s statements and their actions,” Cotton told the DCNF. “After concealing the virus for many weeks in December and then minimizing its severity for most of January, they then peddle an origin story about the food market in Wuhan.” “The mainstream media are largely apologists for Chinese communists and they will accept Chinese communist propaganda,” Cotton said. “They immediately try to accuse anyone who raises these reasonable questions as conspiracy theorists that are accusing China of creating a biological weapon.”

DiLorenzo: Macbeth in the White House
Biden, like Macbeth is a tragic figure, an antihero long ago promoted to his level of incompetence, and just good at hanging on. Joe Biden and his Democrat operatives may think they put one over on the American people, but did they? The Democrats want you to believe the impossible. An elderly man, never known for any noteworthy achievements, not even one (except for being corrupt and a letch), suffering from an apparent case of dementia or even onset Alzheimer’s disease, with a wife that puts his health and well-being second to being First Lady. It wasn’t working. Their algorithm broke. Too many votes were coming in for President Trump Biden, who couldn’t attract 20 people to a rally, and can’t complete a coherent sentence, won an election with more votes than any candidate in presidential election history. This is what they want us to believe. And to top it all, decides he needs, after his win, thousands of troops standing guard outside the White House. Yes, this is the man that beat Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States. He beat a man that oversaw the greatest economic recovery in our nation’s history, […] The media and the Democrats say Biden won the election, but let’s take a look at his great victory. We’ll concentrate on just election night.

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S WAR ON AMERICA’S CHILDREN
Greenfield: Unions Win, Parents and Students Lose Thanks to Democrats
There’s a grim humor in all those frantic suburban moms who voted for Biden and Democrats because they thought he would fix this. The political cluelessness implicit in thinking that a party in hock to the very unions that have refused to return to in-person teaching would get their kids back to school is hilarious. This isn’t the fox watching the hen house. It’s the rabid weasel. Biden ran on reopening schools. Then the moment the CDC director said schools could reopen, Jen Psaki rushed to shut her down and the current plan is to get kids back into school. Someday.

Berry: Democrat Lawmakers Push Bill to Teach Children Difference Between Fake and Credible Media
“Whenever somebody starts off a sentence with ‘I read somewhere that this happened’, you think, wait a minute,” State Rep. Barbara McLachlan said, according to the local CBS affiliate in Denver. “I think we all need to be a little distrustful about where people are getting their information.” McLachlan, . . ., say lawmakers need to help school children identify fake news and disinformation, . . . […] According to CBS, McLachlan and Cutter observed a Stanford University study that found 82 percent of middle school students are unable to differentiate between an online ad and a news story. “We don’t want to teach kids what to think,” Cutter said, elaborating: . . . […] The bill would establish an online bank of media resources in the Colorado Department of Education from which teachers can learn how to build media literacy into their curriculum. McLachlan said the goal is to incorporate media literacy into every subject area. […] Common Core champion education nonprofit West Ed prepared the report to advise the Colorado Media Literacy Advisory Committee on how to incorporate media literacy education into the state’s Reading, Writing, and Civics standards.

Kim: Report: Reducing CO2 in Atmosphere Would Require COVID-Like Lockdowns for Decades
study by researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute for Technology (KIT) in Germany showed that because of the lockdowns imposed by COVID-19, CO2 emissions worldwide were estimated to be 8% lower in 2020, but measurements so far have revealed no CO2 decrease in the atmosphere. In addition, the study said that reaching the Paris Accord goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius would require similar COVID-like lockdowns every year.

WUHAN FLU: IT’S POLITICAL
Tennyson: CDC Exposed: Inflated Covid Deaths By 1600% Throughout The Election, “Violated Multiple Federal Laws” Peer-Reviewed Study Finds…State, Local Governments Must Act
Throughout the election, Donald Trump was battered by CCP Virus statistics in order to hurt the American economy and his political campaign. We know that it was shamelessly wielded as a political weapon to prevent President Trump and his supporters from rallying as Antifa and Black Lives Matter burned progressive poor and minority neighborhoods to the ground throughout the entire year. Now that Biden has been installed into the office of president, he promises to increase Covid lockdown measures and extend them further into your ability to travel and force unscientific mask-wearing for at least 100 days. But, a new peer reviewed study has been released that finds the CDC numbers to be so wildly unsupported as to be pure propaganda that is based on wholly unscientific practices that were needlessly created on-the-spot. […] The study is 25 pages long with over 100 citations. However, the main points can be summarized. A major point is that . . .

Sandberg: Recall Fever in California
Recall fever is heating up in California. Key leaders are in trouble, starting at the top, with Governor Gavin Newsom, who faces a near-certain recall election. To date, more than 1.4 million state residents have added their names to the petition to oust him, as individuals, families, and companies flee to states like Arizona, Texas, and Nevada. […] Here in San Francisco, “kick the bums out” increasingly applies to city officials. District attorney Chesa Boudin, who has promoted a philosophy of restorative justice that has led to greater danger in every neighborhood, is on course to be expelled. After a New Year’s Eve disaster in which a career criminal, high on meth, killed two women while driving a stolen car, Richie Greenberg, a political commentator and 2018 candidate for San Francisco mayor, distributed a petition requesting Boudin’s immediate resignation. In just two weeks, it hit the 15,000 signatures necessary to proceed with a full recall. Residents, who are overwhelmingly to the left politically, had finally had enough. Discontent with Boudin dates back to the beginning of his term in January 2020. […] Members of the San Francisco Unified School District’s Board of Education may be next on the chopping block. The city’s public schools remain closed for in-person instruction, and the board marches in lockstep behind the teachers’ union to keep it that way. Board members remain focused on their quixotic effort to rechristen 44 public schools named after such historically “problematic” figures as Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and . . . Dianne Feinstein.
