BREAKING – BIDENS, BRIBERY, BURISMA: MTG holds emergency press conference.

 

DB received this postcard in the mail. He wasn’t happy about it. Note the fine print.

 

THE FUTURE OF HEALTH BEGINS WITH YOU: Who doesn’t want to improve healthcare? You don’t need a degree or research skills, all you need to do is sign a consent form, answer some health surveys, and donate a “biosample.” You’ll join a community of one million Americans who are doing something to improve healthcare. And they’ll give you $25 totally free money. What could possibly go wrong? Now, now, you’re being paranoid and antisocial again. I’m sure this is totally legit and the government would never misuse the information.

FINE POLICE WORK: So, let’s say you’re an officer with the Prince George’s County PD, and you get called to a house for a wellness check on an old person. You and your partner smell decomposition, and find trash bags containing what appear to be human remains. Do you immediately secure the scene and call backup, or do you just wander away leaving the (living) occupants of the house unsupervised access to a potential crime scene and evidence? “While walking out of the basement, officers said they noticed a knife on the ground. When they returned, the knife was allegedly missing.” So, no body cam footage and nobody even photographs the scene? Long-time Glibs will remember from TOS that PGPD is the same fine police organization that raided a village mayor’s house and shot his dogs.

THE WAR AGAINST MERITOCRACY CONTINUES GAINING GROUND: Colleges ditching use of standardized tests for admissions. “Admissions offices increasingly recognize that test requirements, given their negative disparate impact on Black and Latinx applicants, are race-conscious factors, which can create unfair barriers to access higher education.” They also come right out and say they are doing this in case SCOTUS strikes down affirmative action for college admissions.

GROUNDS FOR (NATIONAL) DIVORCE? I’m sure you’ve already heard this, but California Governor Gavin Newsom wants to amend the US Constitution to enact “commonsense gun control.” I’m unable to locate the text of this proposed amendment, but all sources say he wants to ban assault weapons (definition not given), raise the minimum age for all gun purchases to 21, mandate universal background checks, and institute a “reasonable” (again, not defined) waiting period.

SOME, I’M SURE, ARE VERY FINE PEOPLE: Muslim parents join protests against woke indoctrination in government schools. These protests have traditionally been spearheaded by socially conservative Christians. Liberals, who tend to fawn over Muslims and ignore the anti-gay views of many Muslims while taking conservative Christians to task for similar views, are confused and afraid. “This issue has unfortunately put some, not all of course, some Muslim families on the same side of an issue as white supremacists, and outright bigots. However, the folks I’ve talked to here today, I would not put in the same category as those folks, although it’s again complicated.” –Montgomery County (Maryland) Councilcritter and unintentional comedian Kristin Mink

 

 

For some reason this song popped into my head today.
