WH monkeypox coordinator Demetre Daskalakis: We're "signaling to people who are in the gay/ bisexual/other-men-who-have sex-w/-men communities, & also transgender people who have sex w/ men, that it’s really important to have awareness that it's circulating."
Picture I found when googling him
Possible ensembles for his next monkeypox presser:

1) the classic mesh tank top w/ hot pink daisy dukes
2) Nothing screams "expert coming through!" like a black leather biker hat w/ matching leather chest straps. Shirts are overrated anyway.
3) Look who found the other side of the rainbow and came out looking fabulous!
4) When Demetre's not dropping science on monkeypox he's happy to give your soul a spin cycle w/ this trendy goblin getup

At the UN's taxpayer-funded #COP29, self-appointed philosopher kings are ordaining we plebes be forced to eat vegetarian; meanwhile, what do you think is on the menu at their confab? You guessed it!

The following images & video reports come via my friend Marc Morano (@ClimateDepot), who is on the ground at COP29.Image

Marc reports that despite demanding taxpayers start paying extra for the crime of eating meat, at COP29 there is no such "meat tax"
At #COP29, while not lecturing about the horrors of livestock, delegates enjoy dining on beef & chicken burgers

THREAD: In addition to his military career & drunk driving arrest, there’s another topic about which @Tim_Walz has been lying for political purposes —the conception of his own children. Since IVF treatments entered the news earlier this year, Walz has been repeatedly claiming he & his wife owe their two children to IVF. But today both CNN & the NYT confirm the Walzes did not in fact use IVF.

Here’s Walz a month ago on Chris Hayes’s show: “Today is IVF day. Thank God for IVF, my wife and I have two beautiful children.”
Here’s Walz two weeks ago in Philadelphia talking about IVF: “This gets personal for me and my family”
Here’s Walz in Wisconsin two weeks ago again claiming his kids were conceived thanks to IVF: “Some of you may have heard this. [IVF] is personal for my wife and I. When Gwen & I decided to have children, we went through years of fertility treatments. The phone would ring, tenseness in my stomach, & then the agony when you heard the treatments hadn’t worked. So it wasn’t by chance that when we welcomed our first child, our beautiful daughter, we named her Hope.”

REVIEW: Jake Tapper has always been a far-left partisan.

1) In August 2020, Tapper asks fellow liberal Democrat Charlie Dent, "Is it possible the Republican Party is now the party of deranged bigots?"
2) Tapper is an anti-science mask shamer 
3) In August 2019, Tapper asks fellow liberal Democrat Beto O'Rourke: "Do you think it's racist to vote for President Trump?"

As usual, Justice Thomas is the only justice who seems to have read the U.S. Constitution. The 2nd Amendment prohibits the federal govt from restricting an individual's right to bear arms, regardless of how politically unpopular they may be. As Justice Thomas notes, Americans can now lose their 2nd Amendment rights without due process.Image

Justice Thomas: The majority cites 17th century English law to justify disarming citizens, without acknowledging the 2nd Amendment was specifically intended to protect Americans from laws like this Image
Justice Thomas also mocks the majority for having to rely on proposed constitutional amendments that were ultimately rejected — as if their original proposition carries more weight than their being voted down.

Lest there be any doubt, the role of “fact checkers” like CNN’s Daniel Dale (@ddale8) is to create smokescreens & distractions whenever the public starts getting too close to facts.
Take the Biden WH’s engineering of the DoJ’s case against Biden’s chief political rival. Dale has regularly taken to the airwaves to insist there’s “no evidence” the Biden W.H. had anything to do with the administration’s case against Trump. Like this clip from June last year:
Despite his ostensible role as a checker of facts, we could have given Dale the benefit of the doubt, presuming perhaps he was too busy eating bear-claws to do any research.

However, I helpfully sent him a link reporting an admission from FARA that the Biden WH was in fact coordinating the anti-Trump operation.
One might expect a professional arbiter of truth to thereafter quickly take to the airwaves to issue an apology & clarification.

Instead, the unrepentant Canadian has returned to the air, spreading the same misinformation (and according to what I’ve learned from America's Ministress of Truth, Nina Jankowicz, if you knowingly spread misinformation that makes it “disinformation”). @wiczipedia

Seven books everyone should read to make the world a better place:

1) "Politics of Prudence" by Russell Kirk. One of those books w/ impenetrable logic. Kirk argues there is no ideology that’s better than every other, and that conservatism, at its core, is the negation of ideology. Permanent things like creed, culture, & customs are how civilizations take shape & perpetuate themselves, enabling individuals to live in peace while orienting themselves toward excellence & beauty. Especially dangerous is the revolutionary impulse; its hard to create civilization but very easy to destroy. The book is an excellent intellectual foundation for today — when the barbarians are not only inside the gates but commandeering our institutions. If everyone became less ideological & dogmatic, the world would certainly become a happier place. amazon.com/Politics-Prude…
2) "How an Economy Grows and Why It Crashes," by @PeterSchiff . An illustrated story explaining in the simplest possible terms basic economics. "I wrote it for 3rd graders so even Congress can understand it," Peter used to joke. I have bought this book for many people as it’s one of the easiest ways to learn what many intuitively presume is complicated terrain. If only our elected leaders were required to understand basic economics … we’d avoid so many of the problems plaguing our modern world. Sadly that will never happen, so the next best thing is for the people themselves to learn so that at least we can try containing politicians’ destructive impact on our lives. amazon.com/How-Economy-Gr…
3) "Primal Blueprint" by @Mark_Sisson , or “The Pristine Blueprint” by Dr. Beth McDougal, or “Death by Food Pyramid” by @deniseminger, or … really there are now countless books that do well explaining the basics of nutrition. In short, our bodies thrive on food nature designed us to eat — meat, fish, fats, healthy carbs (including salt & dietary cholesterol). Once you learn the basics you’ll realize that everything the government is telling us about staying healthy is not only wrong but dangerous — to thrive, doing the opposite of what the govt advises is usually a good rule of thumb. (I've been geeking out on this topic for the last few years and have many more recs, if anyone's interested … DM me.) The key point is for people to assume responsibility for their own health & start learning what it takes to thrive. Because as we saw during Covid, if you outsource your health to "experts," you can easily end up dead.
