Anyone can become angry; that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way; this is not easy.

Yeah, Biden’s handlers have him repeatedly saying that inflation can’t be fixed overnight… and he normally inserts some variant of our needing to stay the course for the sake of the “war effort.” Yet, they fixed an election in 12-16 hours, admittedly after 5 years of laying the groundwork for it.
Thanks to Biden and the rest of the Dems’ utter mishandling – if it was unintentional – of every facet of the American economy, especially fuel prices, don’t be surprised if women turn to prostituting themselves in order to fill their gas tanks. It’s not as if it’s that rare of an occurrence and tends to happen in these situations.
The CDC, both bowing to the reality that COVID-19 vaccines don’t work and striving to maintain their magisterium, have decided to go full-on Humpty Dumpty and decide that words mean just what they choose it to mean – neither more nor less.
The CDC use to defined “Vaccine” as “a product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease.”, while “Vaccination” was defined as “the act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease.”
Now, however, the CDC defines “Vaccine” as “a preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases,” and “Vaccination” is now “the act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce protection from a specific disease.”
What it comes down to is that they were forced to admit that the “preventative” medications that they were touting – and other parts of the government were forcing us to subject ourselves to – didn’t meet the CDC’s own standards for “Vaccines.” But, being what and who they are, their solution was to simply change their – and therefor de facto the government’s – definitions of “Vaccine” and “Vaccination.”
It’s a small change in verbiage. A minor and more honest definition change if one is speaking of anything coronavirus-related. But, it’s a change that opens the doors for massive and tyrannical government overreach.
Think about it. If a vaccine no longer has to provide a reasonably level of immunity to a disease, just some level of protection from it or its effects, what other medications can the government, with its long cultural and legal history of being able to demand people get vaccinated, force us to take?
Just a simple interlude that I hope you find beautiful. One that showcases the toned, hard bikini babes that, in these para/post-ish COVID times are fewer and farther between and, hence, hard to find.
Recently, Creepy Uncle Joe was ranting and railing to fellow Democrats a 10-year-old girl from Ohio who allegedly had to travel to a different state to get her rapist’s baby aborted.
This isn’t some imagined horror. It’s already happening. Just last week, it was reported that a 10-year-old girl was a rape victim in Ohio — 10 years old — and she was forced to have to travel out of the state, to Indiana, to seek to terminate the presnency [pregnancy] and maybe save her life. That’s — the last part is my judgment. Ten years old. Ten years old. Raped, six weeks pregnant. Already traumatized. Was forced to travel to another state. Imagine being that little girl. Just — I’m serious — just imagine being that little girl. Ten years old.
— Joe Biden
Karine Jean-Pierre, Biden’s Press Secretary, later went so far as to claim that Biden “spoke to that young woman just to show how extreme the decision on the Dobbs decision was and just how extreme it is now for American public, the American families when there is no exception at all.” Not, mind you, that anyone should have much confidence in her assertion.
Of course – and, like most things coming out of this attempt at an administration – the poor, little girl is nowhere in evidence, not even on paper. And, from what we can gather to-date, she also isn’t in any legal database despite both Ohio and Indiana being Mandatory Reporting States.
In point of fact, the only reference we have of this girl is a reporter in Indianapolis writing of an abortionist, Dr. Caitlin Bernard, in Indiana who supposedly claimed that an Ohio doctor called her hours after the Dobbs decision, claiming he had a six-weeks and three days pregnant 10 year-old and asking if she could help her.
The required confluence of implausibilities in this story are staggering, though not as staggering as the White House’s promulgation of it. A perfectly timed at three days past the de facto cut-off point under Ohio’s abortion laws pregnant preteen rape victim and no legal investigations or known reports in either Ohio or Indiana? Not likely. Not likely at all.
No, what probably happened was some Dem operative among the White House staff found the story in the IndyStar and fed it to Biden, knowing he’d get appropriately emotional over it as he read it off the teleprompter. But, in regards to Jean-Pierre’s statement, I’ve got nothing. Either she made it up out of whole cloth or was fed it by her superiors.
But then, these are Democrats, and facts aren’t what’s important to them.
