Psaki: There’s ‘No Question’ Trump’s ‘Wuhan Virus’ Rhetoric Sparked Threats Against Asian Americans

The myth of President Donald Trump inspiring harassment against Asian Americans just simply won’t die. Joe Biden attacked him for it during the 2020 election and his administration keeps repeating it after the horrific mass shooting in Atlanta this past week. Vice President Kamala Harris repeated this accusation in remarks on Friday and White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki made the claim explicitly on Wednesday.

Chris Selley: Canadians suffered unnecessarily under COVID because officials got one big thing wrong

Dr. Eileen De Villa, Toronto’s chief public health officer, rarely if ever errs on the side of incaution. So it was interesting this week to see her suggest lightening up a bit. She said the city should remain in “lockdown,” as the province calls the package of restrictions currently in effect in Toronto and several other Ontario jurisdictions. But she recommended some tweaks to the “lockdown” rules. Outdoor activities such as patio dining and group exercise might be fine, she averred.

Largest North Carolina school district tells teachers to ignore white parents’ concerns over critical race theory in curriculum

City Journal’s Christopher Rufo reports that the Wake County public school system, which operates in the state’s Raleigh area, recently held an equity training session that advised teachers on the inclusion of critical race theory in curricula.

A Dyson Sphere Could Bring Humans Back From the Dead, Researchers Say

Here’s how it will go down: A megastructure called a Dyson Sphere will provide a superintelligent artificial agent (AI) with the enormous amounts of power it needs to collect as much historical and personal data about you, so it can rebuild your exact digital copy. Once it’s finished, you’ll live your whole life (again) in a simulated reality, and when the time comes for you to die (again), you’ll be transported into a simulated afterlife, à la Black Mirror’s “San Junipero,” where you’ll get to hang out with your friends, family, and favorite celebrities forever.

The Return of the One-room School

And not only might it be in your own living room, but it could become an excellent pathway toward taking back our beloved Republic from the insidious forces which have lurched us to the left for decades.

There are compelling reasons for parents to yank their kids from the typical school, especially for those who love America and its founding values and principles: the rampant teaching that the United States is a racist and evil country and has been from its very beginnings, the precipitous decline in academic rigor and results which has increasingly plagued our schools for generations, and the evolving gender-dysphoric unisex-education courses with their abhorrent bathroom and locker-room policies which imperil female pupils in particular.

All this is the outcome of our public education system having been hijacked by the radical Left. (As an aside, when you see the term “public” school, think “government” school, with all its attendant implications and drawbacks.)
