  • Mayo Clinic does a 180 on hydroxychlorquine

     Three years too late. Via Gateway Pundit.. Previously the Mayo Clinic claimed Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine were “malaria drugs authorized for emergency use by the FDA during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the FDA withdrew that authorization when data analysis showed that the drugs are not effective for treating COVID-19.” But now Mayo says:  “Hydroxychloroquine may be… Continue reading

  • Rest in Peace David MaCallum

     David MaCallum of The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and NCIS fame has passed at the age of 90. I thought this was a fantastic nod to his previous work on NCIS back in the day. They did it again more recently as well, not quite as well, and a little forced, but they tried. Continue reading

  • Let them eat cake: Part Deux

    I’m not sure where Marie Antoinette was when she said ‘Let them eat cake.’ but if she was anywhere, it was probably at the Palace of Versailles. And again in the modern day.… Just in🔥 Footage emerges from the Palace of Versailles at last night’s sickeningly opulent event with WEF Charles and Macron. These are… Continue reading

  • Fun Movie Friday–The Cannonball Run

     Based, albeit loosely, on the real Cannonball run (one time someone did use an ambulance for example), it’s my thought that it was a great time to party, drive, and drink for some of the biggest stars of the time.  There were so many that they just did the credits in alphabetical order. And they… Continue reading

  • The kids are now standing up for what's right

     We need more of this… In Pennsylvania, hundreds of students walked out of class protesting the school board’s decision to allow boys and men into girls’ and women’s spaces. Board members voted against the bathroom ban last Monday, sparking fury among some parents and students. High schooler John Ott who organized the walkout told Fox… Continue reading

  • School choice is bad, unless you are a higher-up in a teachers union

     The Chicago Teachers Union president, who has gone on record saying things like school choice is fascist (the liberal response to anything they don’t like), sends her son to a private school.  Let’s compare what she says vs the reasons for what she does: “We will continue to oppose siphoning public school resources off to… Continue reading
