Insanity Wrap needs to know: Remember journalistic standards?

Answer: Neither does the Washington Post. Or the New York Times. Or CNN. Or…

Before we get to the sordid details, a quick preview of today’s Wrap.

“THIS IS NOT A CRISIS, THIS IS A FULL-BLOWN DISASTER”: Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick On Biden’s Border Crisis. ‘We were able to relax under the Trump Administration because he actually did his job and we were in good shape on the border, before Biden got elected. We were in good shape. The protocols were working, keeping the asylum seekers in Mexico.’

FOOLING NOBODY EXCEPT FOR THOSE WHO FIND IT CONVENIENT TO PRETEND TO BE FOOLED: China-Backed Confucius Institute Rebrands to Avoid Scrutiny. “The rebranding has allowed the Beijing-backed influence program to continue to shape the education of students from kindergartners to college students. According to a new report by the American Security Institute, more than 100 ‘Confucius classrooms’ that cater to the K-12 system are now rebranded as the Asia Society Chinese Language Partner Network.”

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: Ron DeSantis Is the Perfect Antidote To Republican Squishism. “This is a most opportune time to reflect upon what DeSantis has accomplished this past year since it’s the first anniversary of the world’s plunge into the COVID madness. For much of that year, the American mainstream media regaled us with stories about their Holy Trinity of American governors: Democrats Andrew Cuomo, Gretchen Whitmer, and Gavin Newsom. Per the MSM, virtually every move each made was redefining real leadership. When they did write about DeSantis, it was to say that he had blood on his hands for keeping his state open.”

HE’S LYING AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT: Biden Wants Migrants to Stay Home – Maybe He Should Tell Them That Might Be Safer.

EXCLUSIVE: Biden Admin Halts Navy Operations, Orders Soldiers to Undergo ‘Chilling’ Stand-Down Training. “Extremism was narrowly defined as ‘supremacist’ beliefs only. That’s it. Nothing else. Nothing about anarchism, nothing about any group that might be found on the left. Everyone in the room – of every race, incidentally – had a collective hush as the chilling effect of this clearly biased definition dawned on our team. As one person on our team put it, ‘Why does the DoD only care about one kind of extremism? Why do they refuse to talk about antifa? Why is it extremist to attack a Capitol police officer, but not extremist to attack a Portland police officer?’”

You know why. And do read the whole thing.
