1. WSJ: Biden Retracts Facebook Mass-Homicide Claim
After rebuttal from social media company, president repudiates his misinformation.
2. What an ingrate. Facebook limited the spread of accurate and disturbing stories about Biden family business in the heat of the 2020 election campaign. And how does President Joe Biden return the favor?
3. Now safely ensconced in the White House, Mr. Biden accused the company of mass homicide on Friday—and didn’t retract his statement until Monday.
4. To make this sad tale of modern leftist media and governance even more disturbing, some pundits spent the weekend treating the initial outrageous Biden allegation as a serious argument. In other words, spreading misinformation.
5. Democrats and their servile handmaidens in the media (NYT, WaPo, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, CNN, MSNBC, to name a few) are the most prolific misinformation spreaders in the United States. They are dumping on Facebook only because FB has not fully joined the club ... yet!

1. This is what has the legacy media wetting their pants.
2. Ben Shapiro drives more engagement on Facebook than all the legacy media outlets combined. And that is making liberal media apoplectic.
3. Not only Ben Shapiro. Look at this chart and you will know why Facebook is now in White House's cross-hairs.

'Vaccine misinformation' is the excuse they are using to torpedo Facebook, just as coronavirus was the excuse they used to torpedo 2020 election with mail-in voting.

1. Vaccination Rates and Political Affiliation

While I find the enclosed thread well argued and intelligent, I believe the author (@NGrossman81) has his own ideological blinders on. I invite him to an intelligent debate.

Nick, read this thread and respond if you will.
2. First off, I admit this graph is devastating on the face of it and, consequently, very persuasive in support of Nick's argument provided one concedes two fundamental assumptions:
3. a) Covid vaccinations are an unmitigated good
b) Residents of red counties base their Covid vaccination decisions exclusively, or even predominantly, on what they hear from influencers on the right, like Tucker Carlson

1. The Lessons Lost When Critical Race Theory Arrives in Class

WSJ: Will American teachers stand up and reject the destructive ideologies backed by their unions?
2. The conceit at the heart of the campaign to embed critical race theory in American education is that U.S. schools have been teaching a whitewashed version of our nation’s history, a nationalistic rendering that ignores the country’s flaws.
3. But of course anyone educated in the U.S. knows that left-leaning academics who are highly skeptical of American tradition have been dominating the field for generations.

1. Another Progressive Dark Money Outfit: North Fund
An obscure progressive nonprofit called the North Fund has scaled up operations during the last two years, allowing the group to quietly work in high-profile legislative fights in Washington and state capitals.
2. Do As I Say, Not As I Do
The North Fund's structure make it the latest progressive nonprofit to operate in ways that obscure key financial information from the public, even as it pushes for legislation to limit the role of so-called dark money in politics.
3. Founded in late 2018, the North Fund's budget shot up from $9.3 million in 2019 to nearly $50 million last year. It doled out nearly $18 million to other progressive groups — primarily other nonprofit advocacy groups, but with some going to outright political organizations.

Read the below thread and cry. All this resulted in GOP losing the presidency and the Senate. Why? Because:
a) Dems and MSM always define the terms of the debate.
b) GOP cannot highlight their own successes for shit. They spent all their time futilely talking down mail-in voting.
Watch GOP now stand by and let the Democrats destroy the economy with higher tax rates, while the kooks in the GOP drag the party down the rabbit hole of futile audits seeking vindication for the bruised ego of a fallen idol who was outwitted by Democrats via mail-in voting.
How hard is this for GOP to understand? Always, always focus on what is good for the people of these United States of America, and explain again and again what makes good ideas good. Ideas never explain themselves.

1. The (Not So) Invisible Hand of Tax Cuts

In 2017, Congress reduced the corporate tax rate to 21%, lowering the highest rate in the industrialized world and putting American businesses on a more level playing field with their global competitors.

Let's what ensued in 2018-2019.
2. In the next two years, after the tax cuts went into effect, the U.S. economy boomed, with increased capital investment, more jobs, and more income growth. Workers benefited tremendously, with record-breaking wage increases, lower unemployment rates, and falling poverty levels.
3. Let's review how the 2017 tax cuts benefited working people. In 2018-2019, real wages grew 4.9%, the fastest two-year growth rate in real wages in 20 years. Real median wages increased $4,400 in 2019, the largest one-year increase in U.S. history.
