TRUE: Unnecessary Relics: The Surgeon General and the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps. “Neither entity is necessary. Eliminating them and reassigning legitimate public health activities to other agencies would improve public health and the federal budget outlook.”

The Surgeon General is a national nanny — and, as the example with LBJ, eggs, and cholesterol indicates, a dishonest political one — and the public health service hasn’t exactly covered itself with glory.

I was right. @EssexPoliceUK DID take masked, left-wing thugs right to the protestors at the Bell Hotel, Epping (Telegraph).

We might conclude that the authorities were trying to provoke trouble in order to discredit peaceful locals protesting as ‘far right’. If so, this is a…

Police escorting masked agitators toward peaceful protesters isn’t crowd control folks, it's literally provocation. You don't steer gasoline toward a lit flame unless you're banking on ignition. This is crazy! 😖

UNSURPRISING: New study vindicates eggs, says they don’t hike bad-cholesterol levels.

Well, the egg/cholesterol worries stem from an LBJ political move designed to drive down egg prices amid growing inflation. “Shoe prices went up, so LBJ slapped export controls on hides to increase the supply of leather. Reports that color television sets would sell at high prices came across the wire. Johnson told me to ask RCA’s David Sarnoff [RCA was then a major TV manufacturer] to hold them down. Domestic lamb prices rose. LBJ directed [Defense Secretary Robert] McNamara to buy cheaper lamb from New Zealand for the troops in Vietnam. … When egg prices rose in the spring of 1966 and Agriculture Secretary Orville Freeman told him that not much could be done, Johnson had the Surgeon General issue alerts as to the hazards of cholesterol in eggs.”

HE’S A MASTER TROLL: Don Surber: Getting media to cover Obamagate: Crazy Like A Fox Trump did it again with a fake but accurate video.

The media refused this weekend to cover the story of the century, in which Obama personally helped create and promote Russiagate which tied the first presidency of Donald Trump up in knots for years and also served as a cover story for Obama using the FBI to spy on Trump.

Watergate was for suckers. Obama called in the pros to spy because they had experience and had the deep-state judiciary’s approval through FISA.

In his second presidency, Trump’s attorney general has the evidence and the will to take the case to a grand jury. No excitement without an indictment, of course, but we will laugh it up when they lawyer up.

It would b helpful if the media told the story but the media is a subsidiary of the intelligence community. All that fat talk about fighting government censorship masks the real role of the media to peddle the lies from the FBI and the rest. . . .

Trump’s video—which shows Obama being arrested and dragged into prison—not only entertains the half of the nation that voted for Trump, but his posting the video makes the possibility of Obama being dragged to prison newsworthy.
