SHUT UP, THEY EXPLAINED: Jason Whitlock Gets Twitter Jail After Criticizing BLM for Buying Large Mansions.
I LIKE THE CUT OF HIS JIB: NFL Legend Brett Favre Slams Woke Sports Leagues And Athletes Kneeling: ‘It’s A Shame.’ “I think both sides, for the most part, want to see it just remain about the sport, not about politics. At least that’s my interpretation. I know when I turn on a game, I want to watch the game. I want to watch the players play and teams win and lose and come from behind. I want to watch all the important parts of the game, not what’s going on outside the game. I think the general fan feels the same way.”
If TV ratings are anything to go by, Favre nailed it.

HE NEEDED TO REST UP: Get the Popcorn Ready, Joe Biden Is FINALLY Going to Address Congress.
GOOD: New conservative group wields unorthodox tactics to block Biden agenda, nominees.
A new conservative opposition research group is using unorthodox, and controversial, tactics to throw what it describes as “a big handful of sand” in the gears of the Biden administration — tactics it claims have been used effectively by the left for years.
“I see the group right now as getting up every morning and with the goal of making it as difficult as possible for the Biden administration and their allies on the Hill to implement their agenda,” Tom Jones, founder of the American Accountability Foundation (AAF), told Fox News in an interview.
“Our goal is to take a big handful of sand and throw it in the gears of the Biden administration, and that’s what we’re going to do every day,” he said.
Jones – who has worked in a number of research groups, as well as a legislative director for Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., and for the 2016 Ted Cruz presidential campaign – said the AAF differs from other opposition groups by not being client-based, and instead is focused on causing trouble for the new administration.
It was set up only in March but has already made headlines, in part due to its guerilla-style tactics.
This is Trump’s legacy: More Republicans who fight like the Democrats always have.
BRYAN PRESTON: Woke British Leftist Says the Horrible, Genocidal Part Out Loud. “That Naziesque tweet wasn’t a one-off. Webbe followed it up with a thread outlining why she believes the rich should be ‘abolished.'”

VODKAPUNDIT PRESENTS YOUR DAILY INSANITY WRAP: AP Plays Big Brother, Abolishes the Word ‘Mistress,’ Hilarity Ensues.
Insanity Wrap needs to know: Could we please just go one whole day when the Left isn’t using 1984 or Brave New World as an instruction manual?
Answer: Nope.
Before we get to the sordid details, a quick preview of today’s Wrap.
- Just wait until Facebook’s automated censors learn about Boysack, Scotland
- America would have to destroy Baltimore to save it, except Baltimore is doing a fine job of the first part all on their own
- Patrisse Cullors can smear anyone she wants without repercussion — call it Marxist privilege
Bonus Sanity: You’ll love reading how people set the AP straight.
And so much more at the link, you’d have to be crazy to miss it.
THE TRUTH HURTS: Chinese state media is not happy after university think tank reveals CCP’s human rights violations. “The report concluded that the People’s Republic of China bears responsibility ‘for committing genocide against the Uyghurs in breach of the 1948 Convention.’ Pointing to the Chinese Communist Party’s deliberate actions in killing members of the group, inflicting serious bodily harm, and preventing births, the report concluded that China has the “intent to destroy, in whole or in part’ the Uyghur ethnic group under the framework of the Geneva Convention.'”
KRUISER: Prince Philip Totally Seemed Like a Fun Guy to Party With. “Prince Philip always seemed like the kind of royal who spent his privileged days dreaming of being a regular guy who could go to the pub and get drunk watching sports with his mates. You know, just be ‘Phil’ rather than Philip and enjoy a pint or ten.”
WHAT COULD GO WRONG? You can now appeal for Facebook’s Oversight Board to take down bad posts. “The Facebook Oversight Board will now allow users to appeal for posts to be taken down from the platform, a significant expansion of the Oversight Board’s scope. For the first six months of the Oversight Board, users could only appeal to have content restored to the platform after it had been removed by Facebook moderators. Now, the board will also hear appeals for content that Facebook moderators have left in place.”
Twitter’s Woke oversight board turned the once-fun platform into the world’s nastiest leftwing echo chamber. Facebook has been speeding along the same path, and this will speed things up even more.
Have you tried MeWe? It’s basically Facebook without the censorship.
DO YOU HAFF YOUR PAPERS? Hawaii to roll out ‘vaccine passport’ program by summer. “The vaccine passport program is seen by tourism officials as a way to speed up the state’s recovery, Forbes notes.”
I’m guessing it will have the opposite effect.

OH: Funeral aid program allows death certificates to be altered for those who ‘may have’ died of COVID. “Relatives of individuals who died in the ‘early days’ of the coronavirus pandemic will be able to seek amended death certificates that show COVID-19 as a contributing cause of death in order to receive reimbursement for funeral costs under a new FEMA program, according to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.”
