WNBA Coaches Stumped As To What The ‘W’ Stands For buff.ly/2jhvVjA

A news network that refuses to air opposing voices isn’t informing you — it’s programming you. Real journalism gives you the raw information so you can decide. Anything less is telling you what to think.

Atlas Shrugged made simple: 1. Society runs on a small number of highly capable producers – industrialists, inventors, engineers – whose work everyone depends on but takes for granted. 2. The system starts rewarding need over achievement: the more capable you are, the more you’re expected to sacrifice for those who aren’t. 3. Success gets treated like a debt – taxed, regulated, resented – until the most capable start asking why they bother trying at all. 4. One by one, led by a man named John Galt, they simply withdraw – walking away rather than keep propping up a system that punishes them for producing. 5. Without them, the whole structure collapses, revealing that the “automatic” prosperity everyone assumed was actually being generated by specific, irreplaceable people. 6. Atlas is the Titan from Greek myth, condemned to carry the sky on his shoulders forever – Rand’s stand-in for the producer class, holding up civilization while getting blamed for it. 7. “Shrugged” is the whole argument in one word: Atlas doesn’t fight, doesn’t protest – he just quietly sets the weight down. Nobody realized the sky was being held up by anyone in particular, until the day it isn’t. You don’t want us? We just go…🤷🏻‍♂️

The Road to Serfdom made simple: 1. Plan the whole economy: someone must decide what gets made and who gets what, since people don’t naturally agree on one set of priorities. 2. These decisions are too big and detailed for normal democratic debate, so power shifts to a smaller

“To ‘discharge the duties of his trust,’ the President must have the assistance of officers he can trust. Although it is up to the Senate to decide whether to confirm those with whom the President would prefer to work, neither Congress nor the courts may saddle him with those with whom he cannot work. Subordinates who exercise the President’s power are subject to removal by him. Then, and only then, can they remain accountable to the President, and the President to the people.” George Washington

@RandPaul You are the federal government @RandPaul !?

@Milajoy @grok what happened to the guy who sprayed Ilan Omar?

@adamcarolla Shiffrin

Here is the statement that I was going to read today at the hearing, but the time was cut from 3 minutes to 90 seconds so I had to adjust. I posted the following on the written record. SB 5974 Statement In the interest of time, I’ll skip the fake pleasantries and get right to it. Elections have consequences, and I acknowledge that. Democrats have a super majority in the house, the senate, governor, and every statewide executive office. You have it all except the office of sheriff, and once you have control over sheriffs you think you can impose your will on people like me. Some of my colleagues naively believe that they can come here and reason with you. They think you don’t understand what’s at stake here. They don’t understand you like I do. You know what is at stake, and you are acting on it. You are not dumb, you are evil. But I am not surprised. You are going to pass this qualifications bill for law enforcement, but you will not hold yourselves accountable. You say, “We have to hold the chiefs and sheriffs accountable because they enforce the law.” That’s just the excuse you use for the low information people that vote for you. If you really wanted accountability, you would have qualifications for anyone who runs for office. You write the laws that we enforce so why should you not have the same qualifications? I propose that everyone who runs for an elected office go through a background check, a social media review, a polygraph, and a psychological test. Democrats won’t agree to that because you have convicted felons who are elected officials, and you want more. I represent almost one million people in Pierce County, many more people than any of you do. I wasn’t elected chief of police. Being sheriff of Pierce County is much more than just police work. Citizens reach out to me all the time regarding overreach of the government by you. Some say they finally have a voice because of me, and you want to silence my voice. If I towed the Democrat line, you would not have any issue with me, but since I know what a woman is and I know transgender women are men, you want me silenced. You want to give an un-elected bureaucracy the ability to de-certify me and remove me from office because you don’t agree with my speech. You Democrats hate President Trump so much, yet you do the very things you accuse him of doing such as imposing these types of controls over other independently elected officials. Also, just for the record, my deputies don’t wear face masks, but once you pass the law that they can’t, I will not only allow them, but I will also encourage them to do so. I don’t recognize your authority to impose these controls over me, and when you try to remove me from office before my term expires, thousands of Pierce County residents will surround the County City Building in downtown Tacoma and not allow that to happen. I hope it doesn’t come to that, but I and they are prepared. Are you prepared? Finally, anyone who votes for this will never have an audience with this sheriff.

@Ikennect Not real!

Fact of the day: •America is a constitutional republic-power comes from the people but is exercised through elected representatives, and government is strictly limited by the Constitution to protect individual rights from majority rule. Not a pure democracy!

Quote of the day: "A true patriot would keep the attention of his fellow citizens awake to their grievances, and not allow them to rest till the causes of their just complaints are removed" Samuel Adams.

@Chicago1Ray Community notes ??

NEW: Independent journalist @nicksortor has been vindicated. Portland prosecutors dropped the disorderly conduct charge against him today. But now Sortor and his legal team are going on the offensive and planning to sue the city's police department in federal court. They accuse the agency of "selective enforcement" against Antifa activists. Watch the full presser here. @choeshow @TPUSA

@KatieDaviscourt Time for police to act Threats to Kill Specifically: Under RCW 9A.46.020(2)(b), a threat to kill automatically elevates the offense to a Class C felony if the prosecution proves the victim reasonably feared for their life. This applies even without additional aggravating factors.
