The Quotes of The Day

Quote I

Wokeium is the opiate of the jackasses. And our garbage Establishment is the pusher. Kurt Schlichter

Quote II

"If we erect new structures, we must have a definite knowledge of the old foundations." Calvin Coolidge (1872 - 1933), 30th President of the United States, March 4, 1925
(H/T Isophorone Blog)

Quote III

“He admitted to smoking, just before driving. He kind of started to realize that maybe he was impaired.” Billings, MT Police Officer Eric Schnelbach


Quote IV

‘Yes, there really are a lot of trash men, but I think I’d really got it in my head to the point where I didn’t really like men and I thought that most of them were d*cks, to be honest. I was like, “How can I bring another man into the world?” I really had to work on my own issues in a way.’ Ashley James, former Made In Chelsea star

Quote V

"It's quirky and charming and great for entertaining and will appeal to someone who feels there is more to life than two up, two down,"David Myers, real estate agent

My knees disagree. Vehemently.


Quote VI

"We'll be getting a Covid-19 shot just like we would a flu shot. What that shot is going to be comprised of, I don't think we know today. But I think we could all imagine a future where we're living with this. But where we can keep the science at pace with the virus, so that we can keep on living our lives" Johnson & Johnson, Alex Gorsky

Great, I can just hear the TSA agents saying, "Show us your papers."


On Sunday, Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said that the Biden administration is in active conversations with the CDC about requiring Americans to have a negative COVID-19 test before traveling by plane to another U.S. state.

Buttigieg made his comments during an Axios interview when the Democrat was asked what he thought “of requiring a COVID test before someone flies even domestically?”


I wonder if he's in favor of anal swab testing.


No, I won't denounce myself.

An in-depth look at the January 6th, capitol riots.

The storming of the US Capitol last month left five people dead, over 100 police officers injured and millions of dollars in damage to the building.

Most of the rioters were allowed to leave the building without facing arrest, but a month-long search for offenders has resulted in charges against a reported 221 people.

Among those arrested, there have been state lawmakers, military veterans and even a gold medal-winning Olympian.

Here's a closer look at who conducted the siege and why.

David Hogg's Pillow Company Is Proceeding Nicely

Last week I told you about former teen and current gun-grabber David Hogg starting his own pillow company to take down My Pillow founder Mike Lindell. You can almost see the cartoon thought-balloon over Hogg’s adorable little head: “Hey, if a crazy crackhead can become a multimillionaire by making pillows, how tough can it be?” Unfortunately, young Mr. Hogg is quickly discovering exactly how tough it can be. And thanks to the modern miracle of Twitter, we can watch him sink into a pit of disillusioned despair in real-time.

Just another reason to poke fun of Non-Horde attorneys.

A flustered lawyer tried desperately to turn off a kitten face filter during a virtual court hearing. Rod Ponton, from Marfa in Texas, could be heard panicking as Judge Roy Ferguson drew the cute filter to his attention during a contraband case held over Zoom on Tuesday.

The augmented reality feature saw the kitten’s eyes and mouth move as Ponton spoke, with two other lawyers looking bemused on their own webcams as the bizarre incident unfolded.

The Religion of Peace Pieces is obviously not the Religion of Science.

An Iranian cleric has claimed that the Covid-19 vaccine turns people gay.

Ayatollah Abbas Tabrizian made the claims on messaging platform Telegram, where he has almost 210,000 followers, The Jerusalem Post reported.

According to the publication, Tabrizian wrote on the platform: 'Don't go near those who have had the COVID vaccine. They have become homosexuals.'

I have watched every Super Bowl ever played, until this past Sunday. Besides the biggest football game of the year, it also had some awesome commercials. Not so much anymore. I hear Bruce Springsteen was in a commercial that isn't being received very well. Mollie Hemingway takes a look at it.

The 3 Worst Things About That Terrible Jeep Super Bowl Ad

How could a major corporation not see how propagandistic it comes off to suggest that when Republicans win a national election, that's divisive, but when Democrats win one, that's unifying?

In a generally weak year for Super Bowl commercials, Jeep’s stood out for being particularly obnoxious and tone-deaf. Called “The Middle,” left-wing political activist and world-famous singer Bruce Springsteen narrated and starred in the ad about how the country has been divided, but now it has a bright future as the “ReUnited States of America.”

While advertisements that appeal to virtues in order to increase sales and profits can work — see Toyota’s beautiful ad about the joy in adopting a child with special needs — this one fell flat and faced mockery and opposition from many viewers. Here are the three main reasons the ad didn’t work.

RIP Mary Wilson of The Supremes


AND



On this day: 9 Feb 1964
The Beatles made their US live debut on CBS-TV's 'The Ed Sullivan Show'; they performed five songs including their current No.1 'I Want To Hold Your Hand'. Never before had so many viewers tuned-in to a live television program, which with 73 million viewers, was three-fourths of the total adult audience in the United States.The show had received over 50,000 applications for the 728 seats in the TV studio. via thisdayinmusic.com


AND



On this day: 9 Feb 1997
American Delta blues singer and guitarist Jack Owens died aged 92. In 1995 he appeared in a TV advertisement for Levi's jeans, showing him seated on his front porch. He was a recipient of a 1993 National Heritage Fellowship awarded by the National Endowment for the Arts, which is the highest honor in the folk and traditional arts in the United States via thisdayinmusic.com

If you are caught with a fake ID and not reported to LEO. Consider yourself lucky. If you contact the LEO well, you are a Genius Award Winner.

EBRUARY 4--After her fake ID was seized at a bar, an 18-year-old Oklahoman called police for help in getting the illegal item returned, according to cops who instead arrested her.

Investigators say that Blakelee Sands sought admittance Tuesday evening to a bar in Edmond, a city outside Oklahoma City. But she was turned away by a bouncer who confiscated her phony Texas ID, which carried the name “McKamie Queen.”

When her demands for the ID’s return were rejected by bar personnel, Sands (seen at right) made the mistake of dialing police.

Cops responding to the 911 call were met by Sands, who recounted the seizure of her ID and the bar’s refusal to return it. The teenager insisted that the ID was authentic and that she was, in fact, “McKamie Queen.”

There are a couple of parents who should be proud of the job they did. Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

Haley Bridges' friend and fellow Chick-fil-A employee, Hokule'a Taniguchi, 19, was commuting to work in the Wisconsin winter by bicycle.

"I was biking here every morning, so it was a little rough," Taniguchi said. "Because I'm from Hawaii, I was like, 'It's kinda cold!'"

But the fiercely independent Hawaiian native braved through it. She may have underestimated the hearts of her fellow coworkers though.

"It was kinda like the rumor at Chick-fil-A that there's gonna be a car at the giveaway," Bridges said. "We all put one in and we're like, ‘If one of us gets it, it's gonna go to her, like no matter what.' It was not a second thought."

I pulled on my pants and ran to the door. Looking through the peephole, I saw no one there. With the chain on the door, I opened it a crack and peeked out. No one around. I Unchained the door and looked up and down the road. Nothing to be seen.

Then I looked down at my feet and saw it, carefully folded into a protective plastic bag: the Overnight Thread had arrived....

We do know that one was murdered though.

26 "comprised of"

I love solecisms, and a passive construction of the verb "to comprise" takes pride of place.

Something "comprises" something else. To say something "is comprised of" something else is a solecism of the ignorant trying to appear erudite.

A commie give-away organization, a subdivision of the Ministry of Truth.

True art is not supported by government grants. If the government supports it, it isn't art. If it's art, the government doesn't support it.

NB: Renaissance patrons of the arts, even if politically powerful, supported them out of their own pockets, not out of the public purse, i.e., not from money coerced out of the peasantry.

53 those bigger and bigger wrenches - reminds me of a few years ago, bitterly cold evening, a pipe for watering froze in the back yard and broke, yard was flooding. I had to get the water cut off at the meter, in front, but it wouldn't budge. So I got a heavy duty water tool a friend welded together once, it still was stuck. So I got a 24" pipe wrench, put it on the tool and hit it with a hammer. Suddenly there was this big POP!!! and all this water started burbling up out of the meter box.

so I called up the utility company and said "hey I just looked out in my front yard and I see all this water coming out of my meter box and I don't know what happened!!!!" Those poor guys were out there at 11 that night, about 28 degrees out, digging up and fixing my meter.

65 Mom was reading, IIRC, Time Magazine, and she mentioned that those Beatles boys were going to be on Ed Sullivan. Young me said, who? what? I mean, Ed Sullivan is the home of Topo Gigio, that hand-with-a-wig pervert, and the dullest variety acts ever carried on teevee. Yeah, he hosted Elvis, but, well, Elvis was old school, my older sister's era. (I came to appreciate him better, later.)

We watched.

How can I describe it? Something had just happened, a door opened and the future burst in. These guys were no Topo Gigio. Only later did I parse out the elements that made them outstanding, right from the start, but that night, I was just amazed.

A 1" drive impact wrench fed with 120psi through a 3/4" hose, couldn't budge it. Used a breaker bar over six feet long and a non-petite, well nourished corn fed mechanic. Broke the breaker bar.

Flame Wrench, FTW! I've got a compact barrel torch body, which is just perfect for *not* melting off a nut, unless you really want it to. But putting it through a couple heat/cool cycles can really break through the rust and get 'em turnin'. Gobbles up less gas in the doing, too.

I usually eat a few peanut butter and saltines every night before I go to bed. And if it's cold, as it has been lately, I've been known to wash them down with hot cocoa.

199 Properly hydrating and taking an over the counter anti-inflammatory generally helps me when I get gout. I usually get gout when I've 1) gotten dehydrated like from walking all day around an "amusement" park with the family without drinking, then 2) having a few beers later. Beer and dehydration seems to be the trigger for me. I can prevent it if that night I down a bunch of water and take some ibuprofen. But if not then later the hydrating and ibuprofen will at least shorten the symptoms. Sucks while you have it though.

While he was making the movie M*A*S*H, he wanted a really over-the-top depressing song for its theme. None of the pro songwriters he'd tried to work with could quite get the sound he wanted.

Then he thought, hey, you know what? I have a teenaged son at home! He should know all about depressing. So, he tried asking his thirteen-year-old emo brat to write a really emo song. And that brat busted out what came to be known as Suicide Is Painless.

That song ended up also being the theme of the M*A*S*H TV series, and with the royalties from that, Altman's kid ended up making more money from M*A*S*H than Altman himself did.

I have thyroid issues and used only Kosher salt in cooking for decades. But in the modern American diet, Iodine deficiency is pretty rare. It would be nice if some Iodized salt could fix it, I wish that were so. I do use it sometimes for the hell of it, mostly if I am dissolving salt in water for pasta or the like.

237 >>> 206 After my husband died, I've had the pleasure of going through all of his hobbies. I swear, there has got to be at least ten of every tool known to God.
Three years later...I'm still sorting them.
Posted by: COMountainMarie


I friggin love tools. I had this idea for a store once. One half would be all women's fashion, clothes, purses, etc.. and the other half tools, but all sort of tools, hobby, automechanic, construction, machinist, more than what you would have at homedepot. So while the wives shopped the husbands would check out the power tools and stuff. In the middle would be a cafe.

I thought this through one of the many times I was stuck at a mall trying to figure out what to do with my self while my wife tried things on. And I know the whole idea is misogynistic as hell and would never be allowed.

Not if you didn't try to discriminate, I don't think. As long as lesbian drywallers and roofers were allowed in the tool side, and guys like David Hogg were allowed in the purse and shoe side, you'd be fine.

Just don't explicitly label the sides as for men and women. Let the customers figure it out for themselves.

I've got a plastic ball with something like a churn inside. You have to keep an insert in the freezer. When you're ready you put the ice cream ingredients in the insert, put the insert in the plastic ball, and then give the ball to some kids to roll around for a while until the ice cream is ready.

One screw would not budge and rather than mess w/ it more I just tore the plate off. That worked!

Won't detail more, suffice it to say I drove our remaining vehicle thru the snowsrom by then. It's a 20 yr old Mustang that is worthless on ice and slick snow. We really needed dog food was why it couldn't wait. Lucky that made it w/out getting stuck. Crap day all around.

I understand! When you're young, you hear an idea and it just sounds so profound, man! And you tell everyone about it, and ask why aren't we doing this?, and you feel so smart! Then you proudly bring this idea up your dad, and he says, "We don't do this because (X, Y, and Z)."

And you're all, like, "Fuck you, old man! I think I know more about how people think and how society functions than you do!". And then you get older and you realize Dad was 100% right.

Young adults today have grown up without a dad, so they didn't get that same sort of guidance, and they may never realize how wrong they were until the real revolutionaries line them up in front of that wall.

This movement began two days before election day, and they have printouts for each transaction that shows time, date, where the hacker was located, where they hacked into (i.e., precinct) and the result of the hack, which was all minus votes to the Trump column.

I used a recipe for smoked salmon, and didn't realize it was "lox" instead of just smoked salmon.

Was it the recipe or is lox that salty? Never ate lox advertised as lox.

Everyone should make bacon. Use the buckboard bacon cure kit and some cheap boneless spare ribs for starters. Kind of meaty, but delicious, especially cooked in leftover lard. If you don't have a smoker, try some liquid smoke in the cure.

One time I went to an Einstein's Bagels for breakfast and ordered my usual turkey sausage with egg and cheese on a potato bagel. I like that their sausage is made from turkey, because I feel a little weird about putting pork on a bagel.

Anyway, on this day they got something mixed up and I got someone else's order of that classic salmon and cream cheese and onions and capers. It was still good! I hope whoever ended up getting my sandwich liked it, too.

It isn't just that. When I was younger, you were a bit naive and idealistic in college and your early twenties. Then you got a real job and started paying taxes. You also noticed that there were people around who were lazy, criminal, or freeloaders. So, you became more realistic and more conservative.

What I see with some people in the generations younger than me, is that they hang onto their naive, liberal views. I think a lot of that is due to indoctrination from the media. I'm seeing this with most of my nephews and their wives. They're all for programs that promote laziness and freeloading. Of course, they make sure they don't live anywhere near the lazy freeloaders.

If the author contradicts a single sentence 300 pages later, it just jumps out at me. It has to be a combination of (what used to be) a great memory, and how my brain catalogs things. It's like I'm every author's nagging wife.

I heard about that and thought, well, personality-wise, he's a pretty good fit! At the time, Justice League was an unusually humorous superhero comic. This was right before most comics started getting really grim and dark.

Alex Karras and his wife wanted to make a sitcom starring themselves as just a happy married couple. They got into talks with a producer who wanted them to adopt a black kid because of Diff'rent Strokes. They agreed to it, and then Emmanuel Lewis got himself named a co-producer and he ended up being an absolute tyrant on the set.

456 You want slow pacing? Try some of the British TV from 25 or more years ago. Holy crap. They took procedural to a whole different level. My wife says it give you time to "think".

So what happens is the investigators will come up with an idea. Say to go look in a file in a basement somewhere. (Mind you this is the polar opposite of American shows, where someone - a minority woman or a gay - comes up with a brilliant idea to look at a file and five seconds later they've used the file to immediately catch the guy and then have a trial and he's convicted and another 30 seconds pass and it's the next day or whatever.)

So, anyway, they have this idea to get this file. Not only will they show the journey to the building where the file is, but they will show the detective having a conversation going into the building and down the stairs, meeting new people. Cue dramatic music as they turn on the lights, slowly approach the filing cabinet, open it and start flipping through different files.

After 45 minutes have passed, they have digested the file and then it's finally on to interviewing their new suspect. Cue dramatic journey to the suspect's house. Rinse, repeat. Very granular.

461 Here's a fun story about The Fall Guy. Glen Larson was looking to create a TV show about stuntmen, because stuntmen were really popular at the time. Sort of like how truckers had been really popular a couple of years earlier.

He was friends with David Somerville, the lead singer of The Diamonds, and the two of them went out to lunch one day. Somerville mentioned that he was writing a song about a stuntman. Larson wanted to hear it, so they went back to Somerville's house and he played the song for Larson.

Larson loved the song, and he cajoled Somerville to go with him to ABC immediately for an impromptu meeting with the executives. Somerville played his song, The Unknown Stuntman, for the executives, and Larson said, "That's my pitch. That's my show." The executives loved it, too, and gave Larson the go-ahead to move into production just based on that song.

That reminds me of another Frasier episode. I guess people can tell i like Frasier. Anyway, there is the famous "monkey episode" I have seen people comment on the episode in podcasts etc. But to me the funniest part is they keep using different terms for the species. In a single episode they mention monkeys , apes, orangutans, etc. it is some pretty clever dialogue.

Well-prepared liver is yummy; ill-prepared, not so much.

I was in Greenland, at a rig site, and the cook and camp crew were all Greenlanders. Cook was about 6' 6" tall, too. And a Euro-trained chef.

The steam table had a tray with slabs of meat in gravy, and onions. Looked like liver and onions; smelled like liver and onions. So I took a slab, and commenced chowing down on it. Tasted like liver and onions, too. One of the other hands said, "Do you know what you are eating?" I replied, "Liver and onions, it appears." "No, you're eating whale. Local hunters killed a pilot whale, and sold some meat to the camp." Me, "Oh, well, it's damned good whale, then. I'm going to have seconds." And I did.

485 Bitter Clinger, never feel bad about liking what you like.

You may have heard C.S. Lewis's famous quote about "putting away childish things", but it's often taken out of context. He loved children's books, and he was a little embarrassed about it for a long time. But one day he decided it was time to put away childish things... and he was specifically thinking about his fear of people judging him for his tastes.

So, he started proudly telling people he loved children's books, and you know what? For the most part. they didn't think less of him at all. If anything, they respected him more for being so enthusiastic about something. The few people who did lose respect for him, eh, they weren't really worth bothering with, anyway.

If you want to enjoy PB&J sandwiches as a grown-ass man, do it! Don't worry about anyone who might look down on you for it. I respect your choices, and I'm sure most Morons and Moronettes would agree with me on that.

Doing this guide, to the letter, is not for everyone. I learned quite a lot I didn't know in the process. It took me exactly twenty days, from the day I initially asked the Old Farts for help, and they pointed me to this guide. Getting 688 mods to all play nice, with no bugs, is kinda like building a car. I'm pretty stoked that I did it. The project literally improves every aspect of the game, and the folks on the forums (the Old Farts) are experts, and always patient helpers.

I like to use an electric welder to free stuck, or broken-off bolts. Normally the MIG welder, but for very large bolts, a stick welder would work fine. Even bolts broken off below the surface of the threaded part can be released. Basically, one builds a little pinnacle of weld metal on the broken face of the bolt; when the pinnacle gets big enough, place a nut over it, and weld the nut to the pinnacle. Let it cool. Wrench on the nut. Most likely, the pinnacle will break free of the bolt. Simply repeat the exercise as many times as needed. The repeated heat/cool cycles act to crush rust crystals between the hot (and therefore expanded) bolt, and the cooler part, into which it was threaded.

Got a smithing question for you. A friend asked me to try to fix a S&W model 10 revolver, made maybe 1960-something. The cylinder does not advance when the trigger is pulled, or when the hammer is cocked; well, it does sometimes.

Anyway, I found the problem. The hand torsion spring is missing completely. Plain not there, and not rattling around inside, either. Gone.

Now, for the question: there are two types of this spring, one for the forged trigger, and one for the MIM trigger. Brownells has them. Question is, which trigger does this gun have? My inclination is to order both springs, which are very cheap, and use the one that fits. One has a straight end to seat in the trigger, and one has a 90-degree "L" shape on that end. Whole thing is about a half-inch long.

Order two of the pre-MIM springs, and count your blessings. That 1960s Model 10 is entirely made of forged and machined steel, and with much hand-fitting in the lockwork in the bargain.

It is quite simply, one of the finest high-quality handguns ever produced for a high-volume market, period.

I'd wager that it's Muffler Paint or some other "heat proof" spray from a can. Work your paint stripping magic, and see what remains after. We can't fix the pitting, but we can certainly see to it that it gets a proper Dura-Coat or similar finish to launch it into a 2nd century of service.

If it looks like it, it probably is. Taking it down to bare steel, even with soda-blasting, is permittable here. There is NO collector's value remaining, but you can make a HANDSOME shooter of it, again.

My grips are a $75 + shipping set. Near perfect condition. But they do not cover the bottom of the frame, you'll see the frame perimeter around the entire profile. Like I said, Factory Original.

Both Cerakote (preferred) and Dura Kote, make a "factory blue" tint, that comes pretty damn close to being the right finish. And if the pitting is THAT dorked? Go with a Coyote Tan, Desert Bronze or Flat Dark Earth. It'll never look "original". But it'll look GOOD.

When you are constantly fed "us vs them", the idea of a non-binary actor such anarchists seems alien.

650 If Froot Loops came out with an LGBTQ+ messaging campaign and said the rainbow of colors was in their honor, would SJWs celebrate it for being woke, or denigrate it for the negative historical connotation of the word "fruit" in relation to the gay community?

Trick question! They'd complain it wasn't woke enough, because that's what they always say. They'd need black and brown pieces to represent the BIPOC community, and pink for the ladies. Maybe + shaped pieces for the + community.

Nothing for the indigenous and Asian demographics, though, because Dems don't get enough money or votes from them.

Lol....that was the intended reference. On a similar note, in my international deployed environment, the dining facility has large pots of warm milk available at breakfast. I haven't experimented with it much, but a fellow officer has been using it on the Muselix that's also offered, and said it's great.

Back in the US, he never liked it because it was hard, but the warm milk softens it up just a little more, and enhances the flavor a bit, making it a completely different experience. I usually skip breakfast, so I may have to make an exception and give it a try.

I remember when the worm Chirac was once considered to be on the so called right. I remember when they called Sarkozy "The American". But some say the socialist Mitterrand was more pro American or at least more in line with the USA, than both of them. And I have heard Trump and Macron got on pretty well.

I remember during the Clinton impeachment, Henry Hyde was delivering his remarks and alluding to all kinds of history. I still remember the line he quoted from de Gaulle. He said, "France can not be true to itself, unless it is involved in some great enterprise". I always liked that line, though I never thought much of De Gaulle or any French leaders. The line has been translated differently, into a more succinct version, but I still recall that line he said all those years ago.

For sure France thinks too much of itself. It is an also ran that thinks it is our equal. But at least they still care, that counts for something.

There was a big discussion over at Democratic Underground about the pillow. Apparently it's called the "Good Pillow", because they're going to donate to good causes, hire the underprivileged, use union workers, have a diversity board, etc. I have a feeling they'll get some initial interest from rich libs, but it'll quickly fizzle out as the pillows will be ridiculously expensive. Despite all the help from supportive media and sympathetic retailers.

709 Everything looks easy, till you try it. Business and marketing especially.

A college perfesser was once waxing eloquently in class about knit sweaters made from recycled milk jug plastic. Not necessarily a bad idea, but they were $150 or something like that. I helpfully pointed out that in order to be competitive, the sweaters should not be expensive, since they are after all, made from garbage, something we have to pay to get rid of. She "circled back" a day or two later and dissembled about how it's a good cause or some nonsense like that. No clue how the world works.

Only the advertisers should care about the actual viewership.

But even the watch dogs get corrupted. Who really believes Moody's or S&P's ratings on cities like Chicago?

After a while, people just sort of acclimate themselves into putting a bias value in any numbers that are reported - like Wind Chill and Heat Index. We hear of the Unemployment Numbers, Graduation Rates or the Number of Votes and immediately recalculate those numbers according to the source.

713 So it's time for a shameless product plug..

Been looking for weeks for a socket storage rack for in the garage. Everything I looked at either was too clunky, didn't hold the sockets well, or just didn't seem right.

Then I wound up in of all places, the store where every serious tool owner shops for tools.

WalMart.

Yeh, you read that right, Walmart. And they have a series of 12" long socket rails with revolving clips to allow one to turn the socket on the rail, to see the size, AND an actual spring loaded detent ball on each clip to retain each socket.

And on top of that, the 1/4' and 3/8 inch clips are mixable and interchangeable on the individual rails. I never would have expected to find something that works this well at WalMart. But, there you go.

779 With regards to Trumps lawyers performance, all I will say is he's doing fine for something that is unconstitutional sham and pointless exercise is DemoTechnoFacist dickmanship.


My defense would have consisted exclusively of pictures and videos of bags of dicks with Xi Jianping's face pictured on it being consumed by fill ins for representatives and senators and a boom box playing, This is all bullshit, sung in Gregorian Chant.

Over at Gateway Pundit I see that Ashli's lawyers are looking for assistance in identifying three suspects. They look like associates of John Sullivan of 'Insurgence USA'.

No request for financial assistance - which is huge tell.

783 Proof that COVID is all fake:

Carlson said that the Biden administration is "releasing thousand of foreign nationals" into American neighborhoods without making sure that they are COVID-free before doing so.

He noted that people from countries with high infection rates "are being sent forth into the population as though COVID isn't real." This, he says, is the policy of the Biden administration.

Well, it is bs. but Gregorian chant which is lovely and as you know focuses on the liturgy of the church is about God and Christ, not about State religion.
