CHINA HARVESTED ORGANS FROM LIVING PEOPLE, DOCTORS HELPED WITH EXECUTIONS, ISRAELI RESEARCHER CLAIMS: “Ethan Gutmann, a researcher and human rights activist…estimated that China murders at least 25,000 people each year in Xinjiang for their organs. He described fast tracks to move the organs in local airports, and crematoria built to dispose of the bodies. Customers for organs these days, he said, are mainly wealthy Chinese. However, he noted, there are also ‘organ tourists.’ They included Japanese, South Koreans and Muslims from the Gulf States who prefer ‘halal organs’ taken from Muslims like the Uighurs, he said. But despite the extensive evidence on organ trafficking in China, no ‘smoking gun’ has been found yet in the form of official documents that could prove the state is behind the illegal, immoral and profitable industry. Until now, apparently.”

JUST THINK OF THE MEDIA AS DEMOCRATIC PARTY OPERATIVES WITH BYLINES, AND IT ALL MAKES SENSE: Barack Obama and Company Dishonestly Lecture UChicago Students on ‘Disinformation.’

And inadvertently put on quite a show in the process:

● Brian Stelter flails as college freshman confronts him on CNN’s ‘disinformation’ on Hunter Biden, Russia hoax.

● Atlantic Magazine Editor Jeffrey Goldberg Touts Disinformation Conference, Skips Hunter Biden’s Laptop.

● Atlantic journalist Anne Applebaum: I still don’t care about Hunter’s laptop.

FROM A. PALMER:   Troubled Poems for Difficult People.  #CommissionEarned

This is a book of troubled poems
For difficult people.
The first of those people is me
I write them to myself
I write them about myself
But I don’t write them for myself.
If reading them helps, I am grateful.

“Troubled Poems for Difficult People” is a body of just under a hundred poems about philosophy, pain, and humility before God from a Christian perspective. It concludes with “Book of Weekdays,” intended as a meditation on mornings and evenings for each day of the week.

STOP OR YOU’LL GO BLIND: US insurance claims show strong link between erectile dysfunction medications and vision problems. “The risk of developing one of three serious eye conditions increases by 85 percent for regular users of common erectile dysfunction (ED) medications such as Viagra, Cialis, Levitra and Stendra, new UBC research has found. . . . ‘These are rare conditions, and the risk of developing one remains very low for any individual user. However, the sheer number of prescriptions dispensed each month in the U.S.—about 20 million—means that a significant number of people could be impacted. . . . Regular users of these drugs who find any changes in their vision should take it seriously and seek medical attention.'”

The businesses that were destroyed by lockdowns? The cities killed? Where do we go? Who is going to pay?

He hears things, aggregates them to himself. He’s a patchwork kilt of lies and idiocy.  And what we have to ask ourselves — particularly the presstitutes in the main stream media — is how did it get this way? Other than by the media completely covering up for and refusing to report anything bad about one party?  And what I have to ask, guys, is what profits a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?  Much less if he gains the right cocktail parties but loses his soul?
