MY LATEST SUBSTACK ESSAY IS ON THE CHARLOTTE STABBING: From Rabble-Rousing to Rabble-Snoozing: Journalists do whatever the narrative requires at the moment, but does it still work?
FOLLOW THE SCIENCE:
RFK didn't link Tylenol with autism.
The dean of Harvard's School of Public Health did. https://t.co/GkSW5DULkO pic.twitter.com/s7w8hR8dlX

FOLLOW THE SCIENCE: Blockbuster sea level study may turn climate change orthodoxy on its head. “Global sea levels have not continued to rise at the rates predicted by many scientists — and there is no evidence that climate change has contributed to any such acceleration, a new first-of-its-kind study has claimed.”
JOURNALISTS STILL THINK THEY REFLECT PUBLIC OPINION:
I don't have to be a Trump fan to find it hilarious that all the tweets predicting that he would get booed at the US Open aged really, really badly.
As usual, the best argument in Trump's favor is the character of his enemies. https://t.co/Ni7gFJsMH0

#JOURNALISM:
If you search MSNBC, CNN, NY Times or Washington Post, you won't find any mention of this news story about Iryna Zarutska.
The Democrats on the Charlotte city council tried to block the release of the video footage.

UPDATE:
This media blackout on the Charlotte killing is insane.
It's not that they're just giving it minor coverage…
Google her name on Google News. No mainstream coverage at all. Just the Hindustan Times.

FUNNY HOW THAT WORKS:
RE: Concealed Carry
Funny thing about the United States of America.
In the regions where it is legal to carry concealed, you generally feel safe and really don't need it.
But in the areas where you feel totally unsafe, concealed carry is illegal.
Funny that.

LOL:
Looking for black people in this video. Not finding them.
See, in DC the worst crime is in predominantly black neighborhoods. 41% of the DC population is black.
So where are all the black people in this "protest"?
I'll tell you why there are so few: DC's black population is… https://t.co/xo1waaFtpA

🚨 BREAKING: Anti-Trump "free DC" protestors were just spotted loading INTO BUSES to travel out of the city because they don't live there.
The left said these "mass protests" were "sporadic," but they were PAID and mass-transported in.
WHO'S FUNDING IT? They aren't DC… pic.twitter.com/TUCnrvxVZ1

Why did blueskyism become so common on the academic left? A lot of educated people live in a perpetual state of weary, smug, humorless neuroticism the primary aim of which is apparently to create the smallest but most morally self-assured political coalition. https://t.co/ZtcCBCB6TR pic.twitter.com/GpDNLyQIw2
