Stanley Druckenmiller says the Fed is endangering the dollar’s global reserve status

• • Fed policies could end up threatening the long-term health of the U.S. dollar, investing magnate Stanley Druckenmiller told CNBC.
  • “I can’t find any period in history where monetary and fiscal policy were this out of step with the economic circumstances, not one,” the chair and CEO of Duquesne Family Office said.
  • Though he agreed with the early steps the Fed took during the pandemic, he said the policies have continued for too long.

Liz Cheney and the ‘Big Lie’

“…Trump’s enemies are going to have to face the facts: They defeated him with a tainted election—assisted by the abdication of the judiciary from its constitutional status as a coequal branch of government with the executive and the legislature, and with a sandbag job from almost the entire media. The attempt to hang January 6 around his neck has been a complete fiasco, led, appropriately, by the director of the much-diminished FBI, Christopher Wray. The dawning awareness that Trump or a candidate approved by him can only be kept out of the White House in 2024 will, on past form, lead his enemies to an even more frenzied assault. It won’t fly. This is an incompetent administration seriously mismanaging the most dubious mandate any president has ever had. (Hayes and Tilden reached a compromise in 1876.) When Cheney gets the high jump this week the real loser will be the attempt to suppress any real examination of what happened last election.

There were a lot of other improprieties in the 2020 election; if 42,000 votes for Biden in three states had shifted to Trump, he would have been reelected. These are the indisputable facts and the Democratic propaganda machine will not succeed in exterminating the truth which is that 2020 was rivaled only by 1876 as the most dubious presidential election result in the country’s history. Here, the thieves are the self-righteous. Trump isn’t the problem, his enemies are…”

Biden Proposes $2 Trillion Bill To Study What’s Causing Inflation Rates To Rise

Facebook Used UN Speech Codes to Ban Trump

Daniel Greenfield:

“…In 2018, the Trump administration pulled out of the United Nations Human Rights Council. That same year the administration cut funding to the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) which had repeatedly attacked America and the Trump administration.

The administration dismissed these attacks as impotent, but the UN’s human rights apparatus had more power over Americans, including President Trump, than most people realized…

…When Facebook’s Oversight Board issues a ruling censoring the President of the United States using UN guidelines, that’s a fundamental conflict between the UN and the Constitution.

The only way to resolve that conflict is to force Big Tech to stop interfering with free speech.

Private companies have the right to remove calls for violence and other violations of their terms of service, but when a platform controls more than half the political speech in the country and actively discriminates against the views of half the country, that makes free speech a dead letter. Silicon Valley’s speech cartel has already colluded to suppress the political opposition, but it’s now applying UN regulations to American political speech and destroying the Bill of Rights.

The Founding Fathers did not envision a scenario in which a cartel of private companies could control the mail and eliminate all letters that were not loyal to the British Crown. The Supreme Court of the 1950s did not envision Ma Bell deciding to prevent Americans from making phone calls if their views clashed with those of the UN. But that’s the threat that has now arrived.

Woke companies aren’t just sending out emails or threatening boycotts, they’re eliminating the Bill of Rights and subjecting American political speech to the dictates of the United Nations.

This isn’t a clash between private enterprise and government officials, but a struggle between two governments, the legitimate government of the United States and the illegitimate umbrella association of tyrannies of the United Nations. If Big Tech and the UN prevail, freedom dies.

If American free speech doesn’t apply to the internet, United Nations speech regulations will…”

Fauci must answer for his role in Wuhan’s COVID lab

There are details emerging about the Wuhan Institute of Virology that merit further exploration.

“…We still don’t know the origins of COVID-19, a full year and a half out from the start of the pandemic. The Chinese government initially claimed that the virus was spread through a wet market in the Wuhan province or that it perhaps came to China from parts of Europe in frozen food trucks. Almost immediately, any inquiries into how the outbreak started beyond the CCP’s original story were brushed aside and dubbed conspiracy theories by the US’s corporate media. Quite why is a question that should trouble any independent-minded person.

When Sen. Tom Cotton, after viewing intelligence, suggested that perhaps the virus leaked from the Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory, the largest bio safety laboratory for studying BSL-4 coronaviruses, news outlets such as the Washington Post declared his comment a ‘debunked conspiracy theory’ even as some of its own journalists raised the same questions. When a World Health Organization team visited Wuhan earlier this year, the Chinese government was uncooperative. An investigative team that had been largely sympathetic to China — nothing to do with Beijing’s support and contributions to WHO director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, of course — could not rule out the possibility of a lab leak, either accidental or deliberate.

There are now more connections emerging from the Wuhan Institute that should be explored further. These connections involve the United States government, the National Institutes of Health and Dr Anthony Fauci — and he should have to explain them before Congress.

These questions could of course pose complications to the mainstream media storyline that Fauci is a great hero, a man lionized, even fetishized by the political left for being the antithesis to then-president Donald Trump. If the NIH and Anthony Fauci played any role in financing or assisting the Wuhan Institute, including outsourcing the study of BSL-4 novel coronaviruses, the good doctor should have to answer for it…”

Male or female is just a thought.

Woke stupidity.

The Democrats will make you believe – through their intense focus on nonsense.

The Biden Administration is negotiating with these terrorists to get back into the Obama JCPOA. Biden offers to ease Trump’s sanctions. The Iranians spit in Biden’s face. Thank goodness the adults are back in charge. Return to normal!

France bans gender neutral words

France bans schools from teaching ‘gender neutral’ words with full stops in the middle because they are ‘a threat to the language’

• • Academie Francais, which guards the French language, has told school teachers to stop using ‘gender neutral’ word spellings in classrooms
  • New spellings use full stops to break up words and include both male and female endings in an effort to make language ‘more inclusive’
  • For example, word ‘amis’ meaning ‘friends’, would be spelled ami.e.s to include the female ‘e’ ending – though it would be pronounced as usual
  • Academie says changing the rules represents a threat to the French language

Woke is pure stupid. Refined, concentrated liberal nonsense. I reject it totally.

Biden’s DOJ Hired Full-On Russia Collusion Hoaxer Susan Hennessey To Its National Security Division

“…The Biden administration’s newest addition to the Department of Justice’s National Security Division, Susan Hennessey, is a Russia collusion hoaxer who deleted hundreds of tweets boosting lies about the Trump administration before she announced her new position….

…Hennessey, who formerly worked for Democrat think tank and Russia collusion hoax organization the Brookings Institution, deleted hundreds of rants peddling lies about Michael Flynn, Carter Page, and FISA, boosting the Steele dossier, and pushing other leftist collusion talking points.

Not only did Hennessey openly adopt and echo corporate media narratives alleging that former President Donald Trump colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election, but she also accused the Republican and his team of lying to the public while encouraging trust in the Intelligence Community that falsified information on spy warrant applications…”

Another way to think about this: a principal driver of the Trump/Russia conspiracy fantasies that dominated US political and media culture for 4-5 years was just rewarded for her efforts with a powerful role in the actual National Security State apparatus.

Laurel Hubbard, a 43-year-old weightlifter from New Zealand, will compete against women at the Olympics this summer, becoming the first ever transgender athlete to compete in history of the Games.

Tracey Lambrechs, a former Olympic weightlifter who won a bronze medal for New Zealand in 2018, is pissed about it. “I’m quite disappointed for the female athlete who will lose out on that spot,” Lambrech told TVNZ. “We’re all about equality for women in sport, but right now that equality is being taken away from us.”
