UK journalists could be jailed for printing info not ‘in the public interest,’ under new amendments
The current Official Secrets Act, last updated in 1989, makes provisions for whistle-blowers who leak sensitive information that they consider to be in the public interest, distinguishing their actions from espionage.

The Home Office has also proposed a dramatic increase in prison time for breaking the law, going from two years to a possible fourteen years behind bars.

Scientific American jumps the shark on racism
Ghenghis Gary, one of our wonderful American Thinker cartoonists, sent me a cartoon (reproduced at the bottom of this post) that was clearly meant to parody a Scientific American cover. I almost dismissed it out of hand, thinking it was too broad a parody of the leftism Scientific American has been selling of late. I was wrong.

The cost of shipping a container from China to the USA has risen from $4,000 to $17,000 and is expected to rise more.

The group’s website states that “talk is not enough” and that sacrifices need to be made to make up for centuries of “injustice.” This group has declared that not sending your kid to the likes of Harvard is a good place to start, as it opens up spots that a person of color can take.
