The REAL Numbers

 Meanwhile, deaths at home attributed to conditions with symptoms that look a lot like COVID-19 — heart attacks, Alzheimer’s and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease — increased. “When it comes to COVID, we don’t do a test,” Jordan said, “so we don’t know if someone has COVID or not.” [More]

Yeah, I've always felt deaths of COVID-infected one-year-olds committing suicide with "self inflicted gun shot" wounds have been way underreported. Speaking of which, for some reason since I took that screenshot I can no longer reach those results...

In related Vaxnews (might as well start getting used to Newspeak), it's looking like as far as Omicron is concerned, third time's no charm, and we might be able to stop chasing after that hard-to-obtain "horse paste" and go straight to Benadryl and milk (no idea on safe dosages for the former and what the lactose intolerant can do about the latter).

Shoot, don't they have licensing and registration?

Ah well, no worries. Speed governors will follow after we've all gotten used to breathalyzers.

I'm waiting for some hysterical control freak to demand that car GPS be used to identify and incriminate noncompliant drivers. And then for AI drive mandates until they outlaw private vehicles and force all non-elites to use pubic transit.

Something to Watch

 On December 16th, anti-gun leaders Senator Feinstein and Senator Durbin joined arms with Republican Senators Ernst and Murkowski to announce: “After nearly three years of negotiations, we have reached an agreement… “We are committed to introducing a bipartisan, modernized VAWA reauthorization next month.” Senator Feinstein went on to brag that this compromise would expand the misdemeanor gun ban. Given the makeup of the Senate, there is NO REASON that gun control should pass this Congress. And to be sure, Senators who were elected on a pro-gun platform have no business HELPING the Biden Administration enact its gun control agenda. [More]

I'd send the email but my "Republican" Senator Portman is an on-his-way-out Vichycon lump with nothing to lose and Democrat Sherrod Brown is a flat-out cultural Marxist.

Right now they're making lots of noise and puffing themselves up. I want to see if the needle moves over at GovTrack, which currently gives this a 2% passage prognosis. That will determine if it's worth writing another column.

The bigger issue here is dumping those traitorous hags Murkowski and Ernst, and that's mostly up to their constituents.

Getting Down to Caseys

Nope. Absolute waste of my time. He's one of the most obnoxious-about-it gun-grabbers out there.

Some of us have been suggesting workaround alternatives for years and we keep seeing this. Sorry, GOA, if you don't like our ideas, come up with superior ones of your own.

Going UP...

 The Second Amendment Foundation and Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms have petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court for review of their challenge to Maryland’s ban on modern semiautomatic rifles. [More]

What the court does (or doesn't do) with it will confirm Mr. Kennedy's assertion.

If words have no meaning they can mean anything.

Maybe that's what Orwell meant by "perfect" language.

UPDATES (I guess I'll use this post as today's Covid aggregator):

CDC panel downgrades J&J vaccine due to blood-clot deaths [More]

I'd retitle this "Government Admits Using Citizens as Guinea Pigs." Just remember, you can't sue.

UPDATE:

Researchers there have been checking the wastewater and found something interesting. Omicron is suddenly prevalent — but Omicron patients at local hospitals are not. [More]

Is that why the usual suspects are trying to scare everybody sh!+less?

UPDATE:

It’s time to abolish ‘emergency’ COVID-19 powers [More]

Presuming the type to usurp them are the type to surrender them...

I wonder if the same provocateurs who didn't get arrested after 1/6 will be there...?
