The Morning Report — 3/19/24

Good morning, kids. There can never be a national emergency or crisis situation, be it a war, civil unrest or a plague, when it is permissible for the government to take away our right of free speech. It, along with the Second Amendment, are the one-two punch intended as the firewalls that are or were supposed to protect us from tyranny. And yet that is exactly what is being debated right now in the Supreme Court, specifically concerning that bit about "plague." And the legal eagles that are reading the tea leaves based on the justices comments are not exactly exuding strength and confidence that the First Amendment will prevail.

[Justice Kentanji Brown-25] Jackson had earlier presented a hypothetical situation in which social media platforms were allowing a dangerous trend to circulate in which children were encouraged to jump out of windows “at increasing elevations.” She asked whether government authorities could not “encourage social media platforms to take down the information that is instigating this problem.”
Aguiñaga suggested that the government could use the “bully pulpit” to push back against the content of the information, but could not call the social media platforms to encourage them, or coerce them, to take down the information.
Jackson objected, saying that it was not enough to say that the government could post its own speech. There were situations, she suggested, in which the government could “encourage or require this kind of censorship” necessary for public safety.

To say "just fucking wow" in reaction to this, considering what we know the anti-American left are by bitter experience is a waste of breath. Remember that this is someone who, at her confirmation hearing couldn't articulate the definition of a woman.

Meh, not so much couldn't but wouldn't, as to do so would make her the instrument by which the mass forced psychosis of transsexualism would've been exposed for all to see. In fact, had Marsha Blackburn (IIRC she was the one who sort of cornered Brown 25 on this) gone just a step further, she could've twisted her into knots trying to defend the continued necessity of the 19th Amendment and really caused heads to explode, but I guess that was expecting too much even for someone who I consider one of the few GOP Senate stalwarts.

In any case, logic, reason and tradition should – should – dictate that even a plague, real or in this case as we now know, the intentionally hyped fear of a plague, does not allow the quashing of the First Amendment, even and really especially in cases where the citizenry, scientists, medical professionals and real journalists raise serious doubts as to the government's official story about all the aspects of the alleged "emergency."

The bitter irony here is that even this government's own ideologically-driven, inept bureaucracy, the CDC, which hyped and lied about the origin, cause, and dangers of the disease, ditto the effective treatments and the snake oil that was the vaccines, finally admitted that what was supposed to be a humanity-ending Andromeda strain strained only their own credibility. That is, it was merely a worse-than-usual flu, that commonly available, cheap therapeutics like ivermectin and HCQ were indeed effective, masking, lockdown social distancing and the much ballyhooed vaccines and multiple boosters were worse than useless, and that our own government in the form of mini-Mengele Fauci funded and helped the Chi-Coms create and perhaps unleash this Franken-virus.

Even more bitterly ironic is the fact that the government went after anyone and everyone who challenged their narrative to the point of stripping doctors and researchers of their licenses to practice medicine. Which is why this case has come to the Supreme Court in the first place!

But putting COVID aside, the estimable Margot Cleveland made this cromulent observation, which pace my aforementioned logic, reason and tradition should all by itself rule in favor of the First Amendment:

[Tweeting on "X"] Federalist Senior Legal Correspondent Margot Cleveland called the government’s response “horrible” for three reasons. “1) because an emergency doesn’t trump 1st amendment,” 2) it happened with elections, 3) it happened with Hunter Biden.
Federalist Executive Editor Joy Pullmann reported last summer that “the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, a federal agency, set up a private entity to ban and throttle election-related online speech Democrats dislike.”
“Much of the information choked by this algorithmic censorship operation is true, such as the legitimacy of Hunter Biden’s laptop,” Pullmann wrote.
The federal government also sought to suppress information during the 2020 election implicating the Democrats’ presidential nominee in his son’s potentially criminal overseas business schemes. . .
. . . Biden-appointed Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson asked if the government conceded whether platforms were coerced into speech censorship.
“I’m interested in your view that the context doesn’t change the First Amendment principles,” Brown said. “I understood our First Amendment jurisprudence to require heightened scrutiny of government restrictions of speech but not necessarily a total prohibition when you’re talking about a compelling interest of the government to ensure, for example, that the public has accurate information in the context of a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic.”
Jonathan Turley, a George Washington University law professor and frequent Fox News legal analyst, called the question on X “chilling for free speech advocates.”

As I've been writing over the past few Morning Report editorials, it's not about speech or words per se; it's about who gets to decide what speech is acceptable, what isn't and what happens to those who violate the rules laid down by whoever the gatekeepers-du-jour happen to be. And not just about hypotheticals regarding trends "encouraging kids to jump out of windows." As an aside, this steers us into the debate about the censorship of TikTok, which is a ChiCom tool that is being used to brainwash America's youth into everything from swallowing Tide Pods to rallying in favor of slaughtering Jews in Israel and right here at home.

Like everything else, the "cure" proposed by government seems to be far worse than the problem itself, seemingly setting up Patriot Act 2, Internal Security Boogaloo. When Donald Trump and Titty-Caca AOC both agree that what's being proposed is bad, it kind of makes you sit up and take notice.

But Psaki-Psircling back to Murthy, aside from the now in-your-face, naked will to power of the anti-American Left and those who support it for fun and profit, what the government is seeking in winning this case is having the veneer of legitimacy in openly demanding that any voices contra its own be squelched.

As of right now, they have a propaganda industrial complex that will eagerly do their bidding automatically, or with a nod and a wink. Still, it's not 100% effective since much of the internet as well as talk radio to greater or lesser extent is beyond their reach because of that pesky First Amendment. Brown-25 and other two Marxists are for sure a lock. The problem with the Roberts court is not only primarily Roberts but the mercurial and unpredictable Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Coney-Island.

Outrageously, the government claimed its purported right to speech would be under threat should the court side with the plaintiffs — a right it acknowledged is not constitutional but part of “democratic governance.”
It lamented it would be subjected to “sprawling audits” if the standards in the case held and it is subjected to oversight and accountability when it threatens our most basic rights.
Our ruling regime, that is, played the victim. . .
. . . Roberts, for example, questioned whether the government was monolithic, insinuating multiple agencies might have different views, diluting its coercive ability. He asked if a hypothetical “We encourage you to take it down” message from a government official constitutes coercion.
Kavanaugh alluded multiple times to the idea government frequently challenges traditional media the same way it does social-media companies — to sit on or correct stories — without it rising to the level of a First Amendment case.
Barrett seemed to question the clarity of the plaintiffs’ position altogether.
Witnessing oral arguments from inside the room, I thought Aguiñaga was put on his back foot, conceding that if the court took issue with the injunction’s terms or breadth, the plaintiffs would accept narrow tailoring but pleading it “has to say something in our favor on the merits.”
If the court does not, we can kiss what remains of our First Amendment goodbye.

Go long on smoke signals and oatmeal cans with string, I guess. But Trump said "bloodbath!"

10 social media platforms were allowing a dangerous trend to circulate in which children were encouraged to jump out of windows “at increasing elevations.” She asked whether government authorities could not “encourage social media platforms to take down the information that is instigating this problem.”

If you, as a parent, haven't raised your child/children to understand that this is f*cking STUPID and life has more value than a f*cking Tiktok challenge, then you will rot in Hell for your failure to teach them well and give them the blessing that is life under God.

I'm just going to say that Sullivan's claim is pointless and, while he may be anti-Semitic, the claim as stated in the headline doesn't necessarily fall into that category.

We live in a globalist world, like it or not, every country "interferes" in the politics of other countries, particularly rich, powerful, obnoxious ones like the US which like to throw their weight around.

Some of Paul's tribulations;
"Are they servants of Christ? (I am out of my mind to talk like this.) I am more. I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again. Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false believers. I have labored and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked. Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I do not feel weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not inwardly burn?"

90 I heard part of Laken Riley's father interview this morning on radio. Maybe it was edited by NBC but he didn't take a very strong stand against illegal immigration and seemed to be more upset at the people using his daughter murder to end open borders than outrage at the open border zealots that enabled the murderer. He had a chance to make fire breathing attack on this insanity and missed it, instead sounding very cautious and political correct, lest any of the newcomers be offended.

I understand their grief but what is wrong with these parents of the dead that they can't clearly and plainly denounce the evil policies and politicians that killed their children? How have people become this beaten down?

I have to note families of George Zimmerman and other dead thugs were never too upset by grief to loudly and repeatedly blame police, Republicans and white/institutional racism for their death. They never tried to sound moderate or reasonable, just attack, attack, attack.

111 Saint of the Day

St. Joseph (1st c.) was a descendant of Israel’s King David and a carpenter by trade. Scripture tells us that he was a just and virtuous man who was betrothed to wed the young Blessed Virgin Mary. Upon finding her pregnant with the Son of God, Joseph, after a time of uncertainty, was encouraged by an angel to continue with the marriage plans. Because of his complete faithfulness and obedience to the will of God, St. Joseph was chosen to become the spouse of the Mother of God and the adoptive father of Jesus Christ. As the divinely-appointed earthly guardian and protector of the Holy Family, St. Joseph provided and cared for the material needs of Mary and the Child Jesus. St. Joseph is the patron saint of many causes, especially fathers, families, married couples, children, pregnant women, workers, craftsmen, against doubt, the dying, and a happy and holy death. He is also the guardian and protector of the Universal Church. He has two feast days: St. Joseph the Husband of Mary on March 19th, and St. Joseph the Worker on May 1st.

(I often wonder why St. Joseph has no words attributed to him in the Bible)

Therfore, I had a break from news. Instead, I went to a Mediterranean restaurant and had a lovely Moussaka lunch and then I went-by myself-to see-Cabrini-which is a movie made by the some studio that made "Sound of Freedom"_Angel Studios. I say it's really a chick flick because it's a about a strong woman-although if you're RC and a person of Italian ancestry-you'd probably appreciate it too. There are some men who are sympathetic to her work. Frances Cabrini helped Italian immigrants in NYC in the early 1900's and her mission work spread across the globe. Much of the film is in Italian with English subtitles and the Italian actress who plays Cabrini is amazing as is the rest of the cast. It was neat to see "Giancarlo Giannnini" who was in "Swept Away" in the 70's here playing very nicely Pope Leo who supported her work. He has a wonderful face and must be about 81 now.

113 Good morning!

Naomi Wolf making some good points/observations:
Now that effort of participation seems to have simply been dropped in many quarters. I don’t know how or why cultures suddenly shift in these ways or why the prestige of English suddenly collapsed; but the fact that many people in the City now have given up trying to communicate in English, and tend to ignore those who do not speak their languages, creates an anomie, a fractured civitas; atomization. . .
Almost no young women are wearing dresses, or pretty blouses or skirts. “Pretty” seems pretty unfashionable right now. And “feminine” is totally out of the window. . . the change in the city was like seeing a beloved friend, who had formerly been beautiful and enchanting and witty, in a hospital bed, on an IV drip, half-unconscious.

There is a marked degradation in what can only be called aesthetics, and a great deal of erasure of what had been the presence of the treasures of Western culture.

He was only caught during the plot because a CI turned and informed on him. Here is the kicker. After knowing he was an AQ asset, likely was responsible for the deaths of our guys, plotting to kill the former president he only received a sentence from the DoJ of 14 years.

That multi-trillion dollar charge has much to do with the acquisition of land and the vast amounts of conductive material that moves the occasional product of the wind and solar fields to where the power is needed hundreds, if not thousands of miles away.

Basically, the urban areas want to ugly up the rural areas with monstrous bird choppers, low albedo solar heat collectors and miles and miles of high voltage power lines, keeping their suburbs free of the power plants and other aesthetic costs of electricity.

Then make us all pay for it with a destroyed environment and the high costs of moving generated electricity from our backyards across the country to their urban pods.

167 “I’m interested in your view that the context doesn’t change the First Amendment principles,” Brown said. “I understood our First Amendment jurisprudence to require heightened scrutiny of government restrictions of speech but not necessarily a total prohibition when you’re talking about a compelling interest of the government to ensure, for example, that the public has accurate information in the context of a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic.”

And what makes this particularly easy - and dangerous, of course, but that's the point - is the definition.

"Accurate information" is "government-approved and preferred information." They are one and the same. It's a self-squaring circle. It doesn't matter whether something is *actually* accurate, just whether something is "government accurate."

BLS lies about the unemployment rate? Well, throwing out speculation about the real number is "inaccurate." Better censor it. After all, the economy is awfully important. Censorship is justified to avoid significant economic damage to the American People!

188 Happy Tuesday all and applause to JJ on another beautiful but brutal Morning Report.
Lest it get lost between all the more noticiable headlines, the statement made by departing Congressman Ken Buck (R-Colorado) has generated concerning speculation regarding 3 more possible resignations in the GOP House. Of course, GOPe sites like RedState.com took up the story but - in usual RS fashion - made it a swipe at Matt Gaetz. With all due respect to the writer of the piece (streiff), it seems to me that he missed the real story. The actions of McCarthy, Buck and others "retiring" before their term is up, smacks of the mass retirement announcements of the 39 anti-Trump Republicans, including then-speaker Paul Ryan, right before the 2018 midterm elections. So the same anti-Trumper in the GOP House are essentially at it again, DELIBERATELY sabotaging their own party and likely at the behest of the usual suspects, the US Chamber of Commerce, the Kochs and other big monied interests. But hey, RedState doesn't like Matt Gaetz, so it's all his fault!

Maybe that drone knows someone in the IC with your Board of Directors on speed dial. Maybe you get audited next year if you don't.

The federal lawsuit filed by the Heartland Institute, Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT) and National Legal and Policy Center seeks to stop the construction of Dominion Energy Inc's (D.N) Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project...lawsuit alleges that the NMFS analysis, known as a biological opinion, did not adequately consider the combined impacts of all the offshore wind projects planned along the Atlantic coast on the right whale population.

I am trying to figure out why a windmill above the ocean would hurt a whale. Are they worried about the "noise cancer" that TFG claimed was a thing with wind power?

their whole argument is there's not enough evidence that wind turbines don't hurt whales. Like any legit scientist is going to do a study on a ridiculous hypothesis like that. Also you know what does hurt whales that lots of studies have been done on? Global warming.

Corporations and rich people are all bad, except Elon Musk, who is a deity. Pharma are the worst companies, and vaccines are poison. The surveillance state is unacceptable. War is not the answer. You can't hug a child with nuclear arms. And so on.

They "believed" all those things my whole life, and with a frothy passion. They'd tell ya all about it, ad nauseum, and unprompted. Today, they "believe" even more passionately that free speech is a danger to Our Sacred Democracy, and corporations must regulate it. They should also own everything and rent it to us, and you should have the logo of the drug company that forced a needle in your arm in your Twitter profile. The only bad plutocrat is Elon Musk, and he should be burned alive. General Ripper was too moderate. War is the answer to everything, and we should consider nuking the Russians.

What good is a container ship when there is nothing to ship? What good is a oil refinery when there is nothing to refine, no one to do the refining and no customers?

Having billions of dollars in stock, the stock only has value when there is a market for it. The elite bring nothing to the table except hubris and a common contempt for humanity.

Almost everything the CDC/government claimed was a fact was proven false, and almost everything the CDC/government claimed was misinformation proved true and yet we are STILL having this discussion imagine where we would be if the government was actually right?

I have a different take on that. At the beginning, it was unknown and we were able marshal tremendous resources for predicted hotspots to ensure surge capacity in case the worst-case scenario was realized. There were two errors, a lesser and a greater error.

The lesser error was using that surge capacity only for non-COVID patients. The surge capacity should have been used for COVID, with the mainline infrastructure relieved for regular duty.

The greater error - and I don't think it was an "error," it was when it became an op - was not standing down the whole thing when it became clear that the medical system would *not* be overwhelmed by COVID. The worst-case scenario was *not* realized. It was actually okay.

348 The greater error - and I don't think it was an "error," it was when it became an op - was not standing down the whole thing when it became clear that the medical system would *not* be overwhelmed by COVID. The worst-case scenario was *not* realized. It was actually okay.
Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at March 19, 2024 09:11 AM (HnUIn)

But they turned further into the Op, they kept breathlessly reporting the number of people dead, the hospitals overwhelmed, need for beds, ventilators, etc.

I kept telling people at the time that this level of hysteria might have been warranted in 1346, but that is with entire towns being wiped out- really wiped out, not just funning.

Everyone kept telling me all the people they knew who died, but the only person close to me who died was my great uncle- who died of a stroke, blind and fucking alone in a fucking senior home because no fucking asshole would let us see him.

The DoD leak from 2021 said:

COVID came from the Wuhan lab
The clot shots do nothing positive for COVID
IVM reduces the severity of COVID if given early in the infection

Now this was from the DoD. One presumes the CIA/NSA had more information and earlier. So to your point the government knew from the get go and WE KNOW this is the case.

They weren't misled or "moving at the speed of science". They were lying. The only question is whether it was to steal the election, to hide their own guilt, to kill heritage Americans or all of the above is the only question.

But that wasn't generally known at the time, even within most of the areas of the government that were taking the actions. A handful of people knew the truth, some of them the shot-callers able to misdirect lots of others. Most people were playing blind man's bluff.

But it became obvious by mid-April that this wasn't the worst-case scenario, and that the invasive response was unjustified. I don't think the overall response was an op from day 0. I do think it is impossible to argue that it had not become an op by mid-April (late April at the outside), when it was clear that we would be okay but that Big State doubled and tripled down.

396 The people advocating for the transition to EV's look at the current infrastructure and think, "No problem because we already built most of it" and "how hard can it be?' without understanding it took a century to build existing.

Because no one gives a thought to when they get the electric clothes dryer, the A/C, the electric water heater and the oven on all at the same time that they can get away with it because there is a level of resiliency in the system. That level of resiliency disappears when everyone in the neighborhood does the same thing at the same time. Plugging in an EV is like attaching another house to the grid. The built in resiliency disappears.

People understand large numbers only when they show up at the Costco thinking that they can grab a flat-bed cart loaded full of toilet paper and shortly discover that everyone else is attempting to do the same thing.

403 Yes, NYC had both a navy hospital ship (to handle non-covid medical care to prevent in-hospital infections) *and* a temporary tent clinic set up by Samaritan's purse.

They refused to use either one, because they were dead-set on putting covid patients in nursing homes. It's just a total coincident that Governor Cuomo's top aid had a parent, siblings and husband who ALL represented the interests of nursing homes that profited from the nursing home mandate to accept covid patients (and be protected from lawsuits).

414 There is and always will be one and only one entity that is always free to lie without consequences, whether moral, legal or spiritual: Government.

And that's why they always lie about everything. Even when they don't have to.

But, a huge class of Americans are so stupid, so poorly educated, so completely indoctrinated, they believe that Government is Good.

This is why I'm not a conservative: I want to conservative nothing of the current order.

418 I remember getting the tetanus vaccine when the government started trying to force everyone to take the clot shot.

I did a little research on the tetanus shot and the contrast between the two is stunning.

The tetanus shot always makes me pretty sick and prior to the clot shot was considered one of the least pleasant ones to get...but...it gives you sort of a sick feeling for a couple of days. No heart damage, no strokes, no turbocancer. And once the tetanus shot was introduced deaths from tetanus almost went to 0 in the US (the documentation seemed to hint it was illegals who did not get the shot that were dying from it...). And finally you need a tetanus shot maybe once a decade...not a "booster" once a quarter.

So...a dangerous enough disease to close down churches but NOT dangerous enough to stop people coming from all over the globe to the US and then travelling where ever they wanted...

And of course then someone asked Fauci why he wasn't having the illegals clot shotted when they crossed the border and his answer was "they have rights unlike Americans"

I don't think that answers the accusation, because PDJT did go along.

But, unlike Kurt/Paul, Trump is devoted to freedom and now he's learned that the Deep State will take full advantage of every crisis to kill freedom, as they did, and he will not fall for the crap sandwich again.

Kurt will. Hell, Kurt probably wears a mask to the gym.

Part of my gig is delivering DME (Durable Medical Equipment) like wheelchairs, walkers, canes, etc. to VA Clinics.

The Clinics refused to touch them and demanded they be returned for fear of contracting the virus from surfaces -- which at the time was yet another in the long list of PsyOp lies (that the virus survived on surfaces) spread (pardon the pun) by the feral goverment & MDM-MSM.

No, that's pretty well figured out because humans have been working on that for a long, long time. I think watching to know how to maximize was probably more likely.

450 COVID was just a name for the type of flu we had last year. In 1919/19 we had a major flu epidemic but I don't know if they gave it a name. And now had bird flu, chicken flu and a few others. And we have had deaths from the flu in every one of the flu epidemics.

Funny that the flu deaths decreased at the same time the COVID came in.

"Jackson had earlier presented a hypothetical situation in which social media platforms were allowing a dangerous trend to circulate in which children were encouraged to jump out of windows “at increasing elevations.”

Of course. Can we ever forget, i.e., CNN Business, 'Mark Zuckerberg apologizes to families over social media harms in contentious Senate hearing,' Jan. 31, 2024. Or even more importantly, PBS org, 'EU investigates X over potential violations of social media law,' Dec. 18, 2023, AND PBS org, 'Everything you need to know about Europe’s new Big Tech regulations," Aug. 22, 2023.

We've seem to become a nation of, or at least many, elitists plagiarists all the while the underclasses are perpetually distracted by real life worries and work, and truly great minds are set upon by thugs & like-minded imbeciles.

Jack Lew (Side Q: The current Ambassador to Israel?), Director of the Office of Management and Budget, said that "enormous progress" has been made towards making all government services available online by October 2003." Or see the now archived, original White House FACT SHEET: The Clinton-Gore Administration: Leadership for the New Millennium -- A Record of Digital Progress and Prosperity.
