THESE PEOPLE WOULD BE AN EMBARRASSMENT TO AMERICA: Biden State Dept. Spox Calls Cops ‘Blue Klux Klan,’ and Largest Threat to U.S. National Security’.
That is, they would be if it were even remotely plausible we elected this junta, and if any of them could find America on a map given three tries.

THEIR LEGAL EXPERTS ARE AS GOOD AS THEIR JOURNALISTS: CNN Legal Analyst: ‘You Don’t Have A First Amendment Right To Lie’.
First, who determines if you’re lying, or mis-remembering or misinformed?
Second, what about telling your kid there is Santa Claus?
What about not revealing your politics in the age of cancel culture?
What about fiction?
WHO is in charge of saying this lie is allowed and that one isn’t?
Also, why shouldn’t I lie to people who have no business knowing the truth?
When it comes to the busybodies of the left, I stand with Leonard Cohen:”Bless the statement by whoever it’s made: “Sir, I didn’t see nothing, I was just getting laid””

VIRTUAL CONFERENCE: How to watch Space Settlement 2021 from the National Space Society this week.
The focus is the people, organizations and technology that are thinking ahead to settlement options in space, NSS said in a statement. A big focus lately in the space industry has been moon missions, as NASA continues to shoot for a 2024 astronaut landing along with a plethora of commercial vehicles through the Commercial Lunar Payload Services program. . . .
Invited speakers cover a span of space settlement options, ranging from astrophysicists who examine potentially habitable exoplanets to engineers working on planetary exploration. A few of the speakers include Janet Ivey (president of Explore Mars, Inc.), Alan Stern (principal investigator of the New Horizons mission that flew past Pluto) and Karlton Johnson (chair of the National Space Society’s board of governors.)
It’s tomorrow.

JOHN KASS: ERASING CLASSIC LITERATURE FOR KIDS:
Classic Western literature, from Homer to Shakespeare, Mark Twain and even Harper Lee, is now being canceled, much in the same way that the Islamic State group and early Christians destroyed ancient statues that offended them.
There is something quite barbarous about it all.
Just a few days ago, zealots in San Francisco began stripping “offensive names” from public schools. Names such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and even Democratic U.S. Sen. Diane Feinstein, who is a living witness to her own cancellation.
The stripping of names are public events. They pit aging, worried traditional liberals against a radical leftist movement that will devour them as surely as the relentless Bolsheviks devoured the more moderate Mensheviks.
But the purging of great literature often takes place quietly, among woke teachers and librarians. If the classics aren’t exactly banned outright or burned, they have another way:
To place offending literature on the back shelf, out of the reach of the young, where they’re lost to gather dust in the shadows.
Author Padma Venkatraman wrote an essay titled “Weeding Out Racism’s Invisible Roots: Rethinking Children’s Classics” in the School Library Journal. She supports this purge.
The woke are barbarians, and libraries — already facing obsolescence — are killing themselves.
KURT SCHLICHTER: GameStop Lets You See the Matrix.
People are getting woke – the red pill is socio-political anti-Ambien because it keeps you from falling back asleep and not seeing that everything is rigged.
They see how the ruling caste allows you this little band of autonomy, and how you are allowed some leeway to improve your material life, but the instant you try to assert power that threatens the status quo, the Matrix kicks in and its immune system reacts to snuff you out.
That was the revelation of the GameStop Revolution. You’re allowed to put your money into Wall Street and they might let you take some pennies out, but if you try to go big and play at the same level as the anointed, oh no. You don’t get to. The system shuts you down – literally. You can’t buy the hot stock. Does that apply to the hedge fund guys? You think they can’t play after you’ve been sidelined? Come on. It’s blatant market manipulation, but Wall Street owns the Asterisk Administration – Treasury Secretary & Lord High Protector of the Masters of the Universe Janet Yellin took nearly a million bucks to “speak” to the lever-pullers behind the RobinHood app – and the Administration owns the SEC, and do you think it will investigate the hedge funders who changed the rules? No, but look for FBI SWAT teams to be hitting the basements where the Reddit rebels live. That is, right after they bust more conservative meme guys for illegal memes.
