BIDEN’S NOMINEE TO LEAD ATF PUSHED DUBIOUS CLAIM ABOUT WACO SIEGE TO CALL FOR BLANKET BAN ON “ASSAULT” RIFLES: “David Chipman claimed in a post on the social media site Reddit that Branch Davidian members shot down two government helicopters using .50-caliber Barrett rifles.”
WHY ARE LOCKDOWN PROMOTERS SO RACIST? People of color more adversely affected by COVID-19 lockdowns, study finds.
UPI HAS THREE STORIES ON VACCINE RISKS IN ONE DAY: NIH to study allergic reactions to Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines.
EU regulator says ‘possible’ blood clotting risk with AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine.
Case study finds no proof COVID-19 vaccines can trigger Guillain-Barre syndrome.
I’m not particularly concerned about the risks of these vaccines, but the risks aren’t zero, and the idea that people who are concerned are kooks seems dubious.
LISA, IN THIS HOUSE, WE OBEY THE LAWS OF THERMODYNAMICS! Infrastructure Bill: You Can’t Ignore Physics, Joe. “Yesterday, in another sales pitch for his infrastructure plan, Biden said, ‘. . . what we’re really doing is raising the bar on what we can imagine. Imagine a world where you and your family can travel coast to coast, without a single tank of gas, or on a high-speed train close to as fast as you can go across the country in a plane.’ This is almost physically impossible, even if we make the most optimistic assessments about advances in rail technology. Commercial airliners usually travel 550 to 580 miles per hour.”

ANALYSIS: TRUE. Joe Biden Cements His Legacy as the ‘Atlas Shrugged’ President.
Still, the most ominous parallel between Joe Biden and Atlas Shrugged is missing from this piece.
In the book, there is no “President of the United States.” Instead, there’s a not-too-bright and ineffectual “Head of State” in the person of Mr. Thompson. The country is actually run behind the scenes by a cabal of Big Business, Big Labor, and Big Bureaucracy.
Ayn Rand called it in 1957.

JOHN HINDERAKER: The Derek Chauvin Trial So Far.
THE FORCE MULTIPLIER’S FORCE MULTIPLIER: Valkyrie combat drone launches another drone during test flight. “It wasn’t that long ago that robotic aircraft were confined to long-endurance reconnaissance flights and occasional missile ground strikes. However, as autonomous systems and artificial intelligence have grown increasingly sophisticated, their capabilities have expanded until the missions that drones and piloted aircraft carry out have not only blurred, but continue to change as the concept of individual aircraft gives way to networked teams working in concert.”
Its networking abilities make the F-35 more than the sum of its expensive parts. Allow the pilot to control a few networked armed-drone-carrying armed drones, and the possibilities get really interesting.
