Biden says his goal is to "cut American cancer deaths in half by 2020"

4:58 PM · Aug 13, 2024 //

Kamala Harris was on board with Biden's policies; she knew about all this. She can't disassociate herself from all these failures and issues. But even he is more open with the press than she is.

Big government. Big spending. Big tax increases. //

IRS data showed that Minnesota loses “about ten households earning more than $200,000 for every six that it gains, which is the fifth worst ratio among the states.”

The Obama administration was terrible to Netanyahu. Somehow, Joe Biden has managed to be even worse.

From Tablet Magazine:

“He is the first president to form an interagency team dedicated to imposing sanctions on an ally, namely, Israel.”

https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/israel-middle-east/articles/biden-harris-anti-israel-sanctions-machine

Harris said she was going to be focused on the economy when she gets around to putting out policy positions. But she's occupying office now; what has she done in that capacity? Biden-Harris has only made everything worse. So why would anyone believe anything about what she says she wants to do in the future? //

If she can't even deal with the regular press pool, how is she supposed to deal with hostile world leaders? This is nuts, she isn't even answering the press as much as Biden is.

But one man's accomplishment is another corporation's impending financial loss.

The corporate media was not happy about the conversation that happened on X, and I can't say I blame them. The conversation should give them a sense of terror, and not because it allowed Donald Trump to speak uncensored and without any boundaries. Yes, seeing Trump talk about plans for the future, the corruption in Washington, and the lies of the left was not something they wanted anyone to hear, but it goes deeper than that.

For as long as they can remember, the press has been the gatekeepers of information and narratives. The internet introduced some very real complications to that, but thanks to many of the overlords in Silicon Valley being just as radically leftist as they were, controlling information wasn't that hard to do. Censoring, blacklisting, and silencing wasn't just easy, they considered it a noble pursuit. //

And then Elon Musk bought Twitter after a lengthy struggle against its board members, and discovered just how deep the rabbit hole of government collusion and cooperation went. This information was released via the "Twitter Files."
https://redstate.com/tags/twitter-files //

All of this led to the moment where Donald Trump, the once banned former president, spoke to the world's richest man in a live conversation anyone could listen to about everything from the border to electric cars, the economy, and plans to shrink the government. It was unfiltered, uncensored, and terrifying for the information gatekeepers of the modern era.

Trump didn't have to fight them here. He didn't even have to go around them. He completely ignored them. //

The Leftists thrive on group think and the hive mind. They can't accept the idea that we could all simply talk to one another directly, instead of through them.

That's what Trump did last night, and they are scared to death that people listened. //

They're scared to death that not only did people listen, but they might have started questioning all the narratives that the propaganda media has been pushing for decades. And questioning all the narratives/smears regarding Trump.

And that is what scares them most of all. The idea of people critically thinking and questioning instead of just accepting the narrative/agenda.

But the most impressive part is the number of people who ultimately tuned in to listen to the conversation. X posted that from the time they went live to the time they ended, 73 million people viewed the space, while four million people posted about it, amounting to a total of just over one billion views.

Combined views of the conversation with @realDonaldTrump and subsequent discussion by other accounts now ~1 billion

X @X
Between 7:47 PM and 10:47 PM ET, President Donald Trump's Space post received 73 million views. During the same period, there were 4 million posts about Elon Musk and President Trump's conversation on 𝕏, generating a total of 998 million views.
2:43 AM · Aug 13, 2024 //

Here in the States, the mainstream press did not like the fact that Trump was effectively getting around them, and a Washington Post reporter asked Karine Jean-Pierre if there was a way to stop the conversation from happening at all. Mainstream media figures on CNN threw a very professional temper tantrum about their loss of narrative control as well.

It's very clear that this wasn't supposed to happen like this. Trump was supposed to be confined to friendly interviews from center-right networks and Fox News, which the left has programmed the public to be wary of or outright hate. The conversation on X was more proof that the corporate media is losing its grip on the narrative. //

How can Harris please both her base and independents when they have such conflicting desires on these and so many other issues? The short answer is she cannot pull this off. At some point in the near future, Kamala will finally have to come clean with voters and make it clear where she stands on these pressing issues.

When this day finally comes, and Kamala outlines where she currently stands on everything from the economy to the border, a reckoning will occur. At this point, I believe Kamala and her campaign team are desperately trying to prolong the honeymoon. However, all honeymoons must end at some point. //

Elections are popularity contests these days. Particularly, who looks young and vibrant versus who doesn’t. Biden is out because he looked old and decrepit and finally, his senility became publicly displayed.

Harris appears youthful by comparison and that’s what the D’s are selling. It doesn’t matter how vacuous or radically progressive she is. It’s all imagery. It’s all Hollywood. Or You Tube for that matter. //

Actually, most "self-obsessed rich guys" are Democrats today because being a Democrat is much more lucrative, is less risky and creates much less friction. For anyone who is self-obsessed and chasing money and power, the choice is simple.

Being a Conservative, or even a classical liberal today, requires holding principles more important than their own self-interest. It requires personal responsibility, courage and sacrifice.

Any coward can be a woke regressive. That only requires the willingness to point the finger of blame anywhere but your own actions.

The Kamala Harris campaign has been editing press headlines and putting the fake versions in ads as a way to spread disinformation. That's according to a new report that found multiple instances of Google ads being manipulated without the consent of the various news organizations linked to the false headlines.

There is no doubt in my mind that this would be a major scandal if the Trump campaign were involved. Could you imagine the screams of "disinformation" and threatened lawsuits from press organizations? It'd be non-stop. Because it's Harris, though, it's no big deal. //

Have you ever had a teacher who was very smart but terrible at teaching? An expert who used so much jargon you could not follow their explanation? This is called the “curse of knowledge”, a term coined in 1989 by economists Colin Camerer, George Loewenstein, and Martin Weber.

It’s a cognitive bias that occurs when someone incorrectly assumes that others have enough background to understand. For example, your smart professor might no longer remember the challenges a young student faces when learning a new subject. And the expert might overlook the need to simplify concepts, assuming everyone knows what they know. //

You can avoid the negative effects of the curse of knowledge by constantly questioning your assumptions as to how much exactly your audience knows.
Curse of Knowledge - Mitigating Strategies

• Get to know your audience. Try to know how much they know. If you’re talking to a friend or colleague, assess the extent of their knowledge before starting your explanation. If you’re talking to potential customers, ask a few questions before starting your sales pitch.
• Simplify your language. Don’t hide behind jargon and complex terminology. Use simple language and clear examples to make your point easier to understand even with limited knowledge.
• Use storytelling. Stories can make information more relatable and memorable. Relate complex concepts to familiar experiences. Analogies and metaphors can also make abstract ideas more concrete and understandable.
• Show, don’t tell. A picture can be worth a thousand words. Instead of a lengthy explanation, see if you can create a visual, a graph, or an illustration that conveys the same content in a more accessible way.
• Engage in active teaching. Encourage questions and discussions. Pause at every step to ensure the person is following. By engaging your audience, you can better gauge their level of understanding and adjust your explanations accordingly.

What’s great about simplifying your explanations is that it reinforces your own knowledge. If you can’t explain something without using complicated jargon, you’re probably not as familiar with it as you think. Making the effort to explain concepts in simpler terms ensures you truly understand them.

Normally you wouldn’t expect the New York Times to pursue a story that contains negative information about top-echelon Democrats, but lo and behold, on Tuesday evening the outlet dropped an article revealing that First Son Hunter Biden requested help from the U.S. Embassy in Rome to secure a lucrative deal for the Ukrainian gas giant, Burisma, whose board he famously sat on. Here's the kicker: this was in 2016 while Joe Biden was vice president. //

The timing of this document release certainly raises eyebrows—coming less than a month after Joe dropped out of the presidential race—but the Times and the State Department assure us it’s all just a coincidence. Sure. How convenient: //

There is, we may very well remember, an old saying about people who live in glass houses.

Science is all too often wielded as a weapon. Whenever anyone claims, "science says," they are betraying a very real lack of understanding as to how the scientific method works; science is not a body of people or an authority — it is a tool, a method of looking at data, drawing conclusions from that data, forming hypotheses, testing those hypotheses, and seeing if others can reproduce the results. And when new data becomes available, all of the conclusions previously drawn must be evaluated, dispassionately, against that new data. Science should not — must not — be cited in support of an agenda, as that drives people claiming to be doing science to act in contradiction to the scientific method — working backward from a conclusion, discarding inconvenient data, and so on.

All of these things are happening right now in the arena of climatology.

On his Substack, science journalist Roger Pielke Jr. has described five such cases, and they merit consideration, as they show how science is being abused in pursuit of this particular agenda. Let's look at a couple.
... //

Too many people, especially people with an agenda, are not interested in the scientific method. They aren't interested in the truth. They aren't interested in decoupling science from politics. That's how we have come to this pass, where a loud, vocal, and at some times criminal element is demanding economic ruin, the end of our modern, technological society, and the return of mankind to the 19th century, all in the name of human-caused climate change that the data just doesn't support. The problem here lies not with the people who are doing science; it lies with the Al Gores, the John Kerrys, the Greta Thunbergs, the people who wave the term "science" like a battle ensign, and the vast majority of whom, like Al Gore, like John Kerry, have the carbon footprint of a medium-sized Third World nation.

This isn't science. This is the opposite of science. And these people are willing to destroy our modern lifestyle because of this — because of the bugaboo of anthropogenic climate change. //

More recently, scientific theories have become bandwagons, on which research grant grifters jump to get money. Right now, a lot of scientific research in the U.S. is being dominated by the paradigm of human-caused climate change. Into this maelstrom, faulty data and outright falsehoods are being swept around, and overwhelming responsible scientific research which attempts to find truths about earth's ecosystems. Without a framework of adherence to truth, scientific research is crowded out by political pressure exerted by ignorant advocates. //

Sadly, science is often like this; called in to support a pre decided position. Or, an old theory hanging on in the face of new data until the men whose reputation were built on the old theory have retired; continental drift is supposed to have been adopted only father a mechanism for it was established, but the truth seems to be that it was accepted by the young blood, and became official after the old guard were no longer blocking it.

My late father was a Professor of the History of Science and Technology, so I gat a lot of this over the dinner table.

Yes, in theory, when the data contradicts theory, the theory gets junked. Seldom happens that directly, though.

Climate Change activism is a particularly squalid case. It doesn’t help their case that their proposed ‘solutions’ are mostly fairy tales. Wind, solar, and battery powered cars will not help, and may cut ally harm the environment more than what they are supposed to replace. I would, in particular, like to see somebody, ANYBODY, taking a hard look at what having wind and solar farms taking energy out of the environment does in terms of side effects. The enviroweenies act like that energy is free, and There Ain’t No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. //

There are so many “climate science” articles that are almost immediately outdated by real-world observations it’s almost funny.

Case in point: I just ran across a recent study that showed that the Great Barrier Reef had rebounded from its 2009 lows to an unprecedented level (30% higher than standard levels of coral colonies) in just 15 years. Remember how all the coral was “dying” and being “bleached” because of CO2 and ozone blah blah blah? Not so much.

Turns out those lows in 2009 (and they were pretty low then) were due to a cyclone that passed almost directly over the entire GBR a year before. Causing widespread damage to the corals (which happens from time to time).

Rest assured, the GBR is not going anywhere, and in fact seems to be sticking a big middle finger to the climatistas by rebounding to far greater numbers than were thought possible. //

Some decades back I made the observation that at least half the ‘environmental emergencies’ talked about would vanish if we executed the board of directors of The Sierra Club, Greenpeace, and the like. I think a fair proportion of the others - runaway wildfires spring to mind - could be solved by taking large tracts of land away from various governments and making them privately owned. In the developing world, too much damage is done because the companies working the land have leases from the government instead of owning, and know they have to make all the money they are going to get before tge lease runs out.
