1. I'm going to go through a few issues with the NY Post article on Biden, which I won't link to, but you will probably see on Twitter today.

Follow along if interested.

2. First the information comes from a laptop that was allegedly "dropped off at a repair shop in Biden’s home state of Delaware" and never picked up.

The "shop owner," who is not identified, "couldn’t positively identify the customer as Hunter Biden"

3. The "shop owner" thinks it was Hunter Biden because of a Beau Biden sticker on the laptop.

This makes no sense. You drop off an expensive Mac laptop at a repair shop and don't leave your name or contact information?

4. But then, after claiming the shop owner couldn't identify the customer, the piece includes a receipt that was issued to "Hunter Biden" and includes an email and phone #

So why would the shop owner produce a receipt for Hunter Biden if he didn't know the ID of the customer?

5. The piece claims the shop owner then alerted the FBI to the existence of the laptop and it was later subpoenaed by a grand jury.

But the grand jury subpoena shown does not connect the laptop to Hunter Biden.

Reading this article (in which I'm quoted near the end), I realized why I have such a strong visceral reaction to some of the negative coverage of @ProfEmilyOster's work on #COVID19 and schools...https://t.co/lE0qHDIJ8v 1/

..The treatment of @ProfEmilyOster reminds of 2016 press coverage of @HillaryClinton! An outsized focus on that woman's flaws had big long-term consequences.(I'm not a media studies or communications person, so I may be totally off, but I swear there's a PhD thesis in here! 2/

On to my promised tweets on #epitwitter data about #SARSCoV2/#COVID19 among children and particularly in school settings. It's less comprehensive than I hoped, but I'm trying not to let the perfect be the enemy of the good... 3/

First, I disagree with the premise of many articles that we don't know enough to start making some conclusions about schools and risk. In particular, @DFTBubbles updates its amazing comprehensive literature syntheses on a regular basis 4/

The studies with the strongest scientific designs are consistent in a few respects: young kids (<10 yo) seem less likely than older children & adults to get & transmit #SARSCoV2 even in settings of close contact like households. It's not zero risk, but much less than adults 5/

Four years ago yesterday, I woke up believing this country was ready to elect its first woman president. I challenged anyone who'd listen not just to defeat her opponent, but to defeat the conditions that gave him rise.

I admit: I underestimated the depth of US misogyny.

The current administration wasted no time slathering insults on political injuries. In the past four years, the breathless whispers through clutched pearls of "that's not who we are" can be matched only by the wails in the past 24 hours of "I thought we were better than this."

This is who this country has always been.
It has never been better than this.

If you are Black in the US you are ill-afforded the luxury of racial naiveté. We know this country better than it knows itself, because we've had to.

Being hyper aware of authoritarian tendencies is just part of how we've survived centuries of oppression.

We learned history that was never taught to us, occupied spaces, (including the Oval Office) never designed to accommodate us.

We have consistently fought for the equality that's been denied to us, under law.

If you are white and you're reading this, it's time to admit:

You. Have. Got. To. Stop. Underestimating the depth of US racism.

.@JoeBiden’s ‘Dark Winter’ Is A Warning About His Economy, Not The China Virus

Should President Trump’s election challenges fail, it’s a certainty that bleak days are ahead. We’re staring into the barrel of 4 years of sclerotic economic

Six days after the election, Biden, employing the Democratic Party strategy of sowing fear whenever possible, warned that the country is facing a long night.

CNBC:

“‘We remain in the midst of one of the worst economic and job crises in modern history,” said the man who as vice president oversaw one of the weakest economic recoveries in U.S. history.

Apparently it never occurred to Biden and his handlers that government intervention, not the virus, caused 2020’s downturn.

Nor have they even begun to understand that Democrats’ economic policies, filled with steep, punitive taxes, and impossible-to-jump regulatory hurdles, are a slow-motion march of the economic lockdowns that almost instantly paralyzed the economy this year.

🚨 Thread: Color (Colour) Revolution:

1. The definition shown in the pics. It’s not really about color, but is all about division. In case you didn’t know, it began in America when Donald Trump was elected in 2016.

2. The goal of a color revolution is regime change. Our C_A 🤡 has used it effectively in many foreign countries. In the US, their goal is also to destroy our Constitution, as well as our status as a military & economic super power in the world.

3. Who is funding the color revolution in our Nation? It’s more than Soros. It’s funded by our own corporations (the ones getting rich while small businesses suffer), MSM, Big Tech, etc. There’s also $ from China, Iran, Russia, etc.

4. If you’ve been paying attention, similar actions have been taking place In Europe & other countries. Link to 12 min video & written

5. This is further facilitated by radicalization & propaganda in our public schools & universities. Ironically, it’s the same method used to groom terrorists including suicide bombers. From 2009:

@NPR your story “Trump Supporters Storm U.S. Capitol, Clash With Police” is date-stamped January 6, 2021 at 9:30 AM, which is 2.5 hours BEFORE President Trump spoke at the Ellipse and 4 hours BEFORE any procession to the Capitol. #fakenews

January 6, 2021, at 11:44 AM Eastern Time: The President arrives to speak.

January 6, 2021 at 12:05 PM, an hour past the scheduled start time, the President took to the podium. Again, your story was posted before anything happened. Why and how?

The crowd was reverent, not violent, mostly taking photos to capture the historic moment after waiting in frigid weather for so long.

During his speech, @POTUS says “I will march with you to the Capitol.” Here are 4 images of the President during that speech. He clearly told the crowd they would go together, peacefully but firmly, to make sure Congress did its job.

Wendy (?) Thread
1.I’ve been noticing some similarities over the last couple of days, enough that I’ll go ahead and start a thread on it.
It’s so cool how everything starts clicking together!

(1,19) I AM COPYING FROM A BRILLIANT POST I SAW ON FB ON HOW TO QUESITON BARRETT. I HOPE THAT THE SENATE DEMOCRATS ARE PAYING ATTENTION!!!
If Democrats do attend the hearings, they should not focus on Barrett's views on any future cases. She'll just dodge those questions anyway.

(2,19) They're hypothetical. She should dodge them. Don't even mention her religion. Instead Democrats should focus on the past four years of the Trump administration. This has been the most corrupt administration in American history. No need for hypotheticals.

(3,19) The questions are all right there. “Judge Barrett, would you please explain the emoluments clause in the Constitution. [She does.] Judge Barrett, if a president were to refuse to divest himself of his properties and, in fact, continue to steer millions of dollars of tax

(4,19) payer money to his properties, would this violate the emoluments clause?” Then simply go down the list of specific cases in which Trump and his family of grifters have used the presidency to enrich themselves. Ask her repeatedly if this violates the emoluments clause.

(5,19) Include of course using the American ambassador to Britain to try to get the British Open golf tournament at a Trump property. “Judge Barrett, does this violate the emoluments clause?” Then turn to the Hatch Act. “Judge Barrett, would you please explain the Hatch Act to

Anuhassan- Daughter of Chandrahassan

Chandrahassan- Elder brother of Kamalhassan

😡😡😡😡😡

The same Anuhassan during His Father's (Chandrahassan)Funeral in Church has said, "Her Father was a Born British Citizen "
"Was always British/Christian in Heart "
"Loved the British Culture "

Then can love any culture but how dare
they insulted/degraded our Indian Culture 😡

Kamalhassan's own Confession

“Jeffrey Epstein companion” - right.

Meanwhile, China can't seem to stop throwing its citizen journalists in jail. Never mind the Muslim concentration camps.

"much of the social history of the western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good"

-thomas sowell

"hold my beer and watch this"

-andrew cuomo

though i suppose none of us should be surprised.

we live in a time when epidemiologists said that mass protests during a pandemic were OK so long as they were for "social justice"

massively delaying vaccine rollouts for the same reason seems like the next obvious policy.

how about this?

"anyone who needs to go protest racism, sexism, the patriarchy, or the police gets vaccine priority"

i hope i am joking.

i fear i may not be.

Hey trump supporters and apologists. Please read:

I'm sick of trying to convince people that humanity and decency is more important than their cult leader and their cowardly political party
You still support trump? Still making excuses?
Congrats.

You'd be making excuses for Jews disappearing off the streets of Poland and Germany. You'd be informing the SS of where your former neighbors were hiding with their families. 6 million deaths wouldn't faze you because your leader told you the Jews were taking away what was yours.

You'd be saddling up to fight to keep your slaves. Defending centuries of racism upon which this country was built. This is your place in history.
I'm not being mean. I'm telling you. This is who you've proven yourself to be and it's heartbreaking for the rest of us to watch.

We don't take pleasure from watching your moral decline. We mourn the loss of you. Or who we thought we knew.
This is who you are. You've proven it time and again. Nothing is too outrageous or egregious from your guy. You excuse every word and action by deflecting blame.

You were OUTRAGED when Black people protested police brutality and the murders of Black Americans by police.
How dare they kneel during the National Anthem? How dare they peacefully protest or cause damage in their own neighborhoods as an outlet for centuries of pain and rage?

Thread on White House Transition process:

On March 4th 1801 the second president of the United States - John Adams - refused to hand over office to his main rival at the 1800 election, Thomas Jefferson.

The rule of "midday January 20" had not yet been written.

Despite his stubbornness, THE OFFICE SIMPLY LEFT HIM!

Adams was the first president to reside at the new official residence

After Jefferson's swearing in - which the incumbent refused to attend - White House staff began removing Adam’s belongings from the WH.

All security organs ended all official communication.

All presidential staff stopped taking instructions from Adams – THE OFFICE MOVED.

Since then, all WH incumbents prepare early to leave in case they see signs of losing,

to avoid humiliation by the independent organs of state.

The Military, The secret Service, The CIA, FBI and all White House staff, all operate under a code - that of serving a man/woman who has carried the WILL of the people at an election.

Biden has clinched the 270 votes, and when he is officially declared president by all returning officers in the states, the following is going to happen:

☀️ @PunchbowlNews AM: Problem Solvers Caucus grows

One of the trends we’ve noticed in this Congress is that middle-of-the-road caucuses are getting larger and attempting to grab more power.

We noted yesterday that the bipartisan Senate group that helped lay the groundwork for a Covid deal grew to 16 -- the Senate Sweet 16™, as we’re calling it.

News here from the House: The Problem Solvers Caucus has grown to 56 members, evenly split between Republicans and Democrats. @RepJoshG and @RepTomReed chair this group

@RepTomReed News here from the House: The Problem Solvers Caucus has grown to 56 members, evenly split between Republicans and Democrats. Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-N.J.) and Tom Reed (R-N.Y.) chair this group.

@RepTomReed I have dogged the Problem Solvers Caucus a good deal, but both of these groups have an opportunity here if they play their hand right.
