Pierre Poilievre said no to Joe Rogan. That’s left some bruised feelings

Right-wing podcasting heavyweight Joe Rogan isn’t the first non-traditional media figure to claim they’ve been snubbed by Pierre Poilievre, although he might be the biggest.

Speaking on his podcast Tuesday — a long-form interview show to which almost 20 million users subscribe on YouTube alone — Rogan pivoted from talking about the Canadian election results to mentioning that “that Pierre guy” wouldn’t appear on the show because he, at least in Rogan’s telling, thought it was “too problematic.”

States Are Using This Absurd Metric to Hand Out Aid Based on Race

In 2021, states had to choose how to distribute a scarce number of Covid-19 vaccines. One approach was to do so based on individuals’ risk of death from the virus. Another was to do so geographically, based on “equity.” More than two dozen states did this, using something called the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI)—a race-based formula created by the federal government.

The index, originating with the Centers for Disease Control in 2011, supposedly measures each county’s likelihood of suffering adverse consequences from natural disasters or other emergencies. In theory, the SVI allows relief workers effectively to triage scarce resources. In practice, it enables federal agencies and state governments to justify denying aid to neighborhoods because of race.

Arkancide?

A star witness in the Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs trial is reportedly MIA, throwing the disgraced Bad Boy mogul’s sex trafficking case into chaos.

Opening statements are set to begin next week. But federal prosecutors have been left scrambling.

They can’t find one of the female victims who is central to their case. She does not live in New York where the Combs’ trial is being held.

The Fate of America’s Plutocrats

In what can only be described as the most astonishing turn of events in American political history, the Democrat party over the past twenty years has evolved into a previously unimagined alliance of super-rich plutocrats and their two-century-old mortal enemy, the far-left or Marxists.

Many years ago, while participating in a voter registration drive, I came upon a grizzled and disheveled old man sitting in the overgrown and weed-infested yard of his paint-starved house calmly smoking his pipe. Despite his gruff demeanor, Ully (Ulysses) was very pleasant and loquacious as we talked for over an hour on topics ranging from the weather to the innate foibles of mankind.
