Jester Politics News Roundup For March 8, 2024 Biden and gang’s open border policies are responsible for this “Bloodthirsty Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua sets up shop in US as border authorities sound alarm”.  These are not “newcomers,” they are illegal-migrants.  And do not play semantics with me and argue they’re not illegals because people cannot be “illegal.”  Everyone who has come across our borders illegally are illegal-migrants and need to go back home.  If they still want to come to the U.S., then they can apply to come her legally. Only the best and brightest idiots get to run the ATF: ATF Director Faces the Nation with His Ignorance of Firearms.  Both Steve Dettelbach, the ATF Director and one of his “leading firearms and ammunition experts,” Agent Chris Bort, appeared on Face the Nation where they demonstrated an amazing lack of knowledge, expertise, and honesty.  And people wonder why our federal “law enforcement” organizations are so out of control. Bummer, Timothy Leary the 60’s ‘High Priest Of LSD,’ missed his time: FDA designates LSD-based drug as possible breakthrough treatment for anxiety. Is this a good idea or one of those “what could go wrong” ones?  20 Megawatt Nuclear Reactors That Can Fit In a Truck.  I’m not concerned about the safety of the reactor, well not much.  However, I am concerned that terrorists and other less than stable people will really like the ‘let’s drive away with a nuclear reactor’ idea. Free speech is very broad, but it is not let’s spit on people broad.  That is not free speech – it’s just disgusting, unlawful, and in this case another example of antisemitism run wild on our campuses:  Tufts Jewish students report being ‘spat’ on during student gov meeting. The economy is so good under Biden that US salaries are falling.  But don’t worry, Biden is going to reduce credit card late fees so those who had to max them out in order to buy food and gas in his less than booming economy can get some breathing room.  I think those who voted for Biden should have to pay damages to those of us who did not… Oh my, I do not think this is what Georgia expected: Rivian Pauses Construction at Factory That Costs Georgia Taxpayers $1.5 Billion.  I have no empathy for states who lose money by engaging in selective corporate welfare.  Why not just you know, make your state more attractive to all businesses in general? Been hearing a lot about Shrinkflation, which Is Real—and It’s Largely Biden’s Fault.  When faced with inflation companies have three choices: (1) Increase the price for the same amount of a product;  Keep the price the same and reduce the amount of product; or (3) keep the price and amount the same and go broke.  Solving “shrinkflation” requires the government to rein in inflation. A major network or maybe Tucker Carlson needs to hire this woman to do political commentary! It’s a good gig if you can get it, probably unethical, but heh it involves Harvard, one of its “overseers,” and the overseers’ law firm, so what do you expect? “Ethics probe launched into Harvard overseer whose law firm billed school $42 million” This is not only a travesty but also unlawful: UNLV cops shut down Israeli professor’s lecture rather than remove anti-Israel protesters.  The Heckler’s Veto, which this is, is not free speech and the authorities are required under constitutional law to remove those attempting to shut down the speaker, not force the speaker to leave. What’s more, the speaker – Professor Asaf Peer, who is Jewish was discussing the topic of black holes, not anything related to politics, and was targeted for being a Jew.  There can be no place in our universities for antisemitism.  For any that are interested, Bible Believers v. Wayne County (2015)(6th Cir) has an excellent discussion of the Heckler’s Veto and why it is not free speech. One of our nations supposedly top universities – Columbia “taps pro-Hamas, ‘anarchist interdisciplinary activist-scholar’ to teach intersectional history.”  And people wonder why college graduates don’t make enough to pay their student loans… This seems to be common sense: “Rand Paul’s Bill Would Require NIH Scientists To Disclose Royalties They Receive From Drug Companies.” Of course, many on the left are upset, ok, freaking out that the Supreme Court has interfered with their plans to interfere in the 2024 election.  In response to the Supremes deciding to hear Trump’s Presidential Immunity claim in April 2023 the NY Times ran this head line “This Could Well Be Game Over” – referring to Biden’s chances of winning a second term.  As Thomas B. Edsall writes: “It increases the likelihood that neither of the two federal indictments of Trump will come to trial before the November election. A failure to hold at least one of these trials before Nov. 5 would undermine a key Democratic goal: to expand voters’ awareness of the dangers posed by a second Trump term.” The Times article is behind a paywall, but there is a good summary of it at PJ Media. Let’s start with getting Hunter to pay his taxes: “Biden Says He’ll Make the Wealthy Pay More To Fix Social Security.”  Jester Politics thrives on the generous contributions of people like you.
