Maxine Waters Calls For CDC To Extend Eviction Moratorium: ‘Who Is Going To Stop Them?’
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) on Monday attempted to persuade the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to extend its eviction moratorium but inadvertently revealed how Democrats view their power.
Toward the beginning of the pandemic, the CDC enacted a moratorium on evictions, meaning landlords couldn’t evict tenants who didn’t pay their rent. Now that moratorium has expired, and Democrats waited until the last minute to try to extend it. Waters on Monday tweeted that the CDC should just extend the moratorium without Congress or any legal authority, because there’s no one to stop them.

Clean, Green and Absolutely Sustainable
One of history’s most valuable lessons is that much of what is widely believed at any one time will later be viewed as nonsense, and it is vanishingly unlikely that this does not still apply. On the contrary, our current system of education is now actively pursuing an indoctrination in postmodern thought which seeks to deny, demean and dismiss the all-too-brief ascendancy of reason and evidence as embodied in the scientific method. The impetus for this is simple. Reason and evidence threaten established careers, status and beliefs held dear in academia, and it is they who determine the content of education.

Researcher DESTROYS The Myth Of “Legal Lockdowns” In An Interview The Media Is Burying

Conservative Academics Endorse A Progressive History Against Progressives Who Call Canada Racist
In a recent article at The Epoch Times, “Erasing, Misrepresenting Canada’s History Erodes Foundations of Society,” a group of well meaning and harmless conservative historians are cited at length expressing concerns about the tearing down of statues, renaming of buildings and streets, and overemphasis on Canada’s “racist past” without an acknowledgement that this nation has been “constantly improving” away from its “racist past”. I don’t wish to speak slightingly of the historians interviewed for this article. They seem sincere in their angst about the obliteration of Canada’s past from the public sphere. But these historians speak from a defeatist standpoint and they readily accept the premises of the “progressive” Left. Their argument is essentially that Canada’s “historical trajectory” can’t be categorized as purely racist since this past eventually produced a non-racist Canada that welcomes millions of nonwhite immigrants. Canada is now a nation of “justice,” “prosperity,” and “equal rights for everyone”.
