DAILY BIBLE VERSE

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

James 3:17-18 KJV

 


Plexiglass 

By Mike Huckabee

Is there ANYTHING the “experts” told us about COVID-19 that was actually true? The latest domino to topple is the idea of putting up plexiglass barriers to keep the virus at bay. Turns out they were about as useful as big, see-through cloth facemasks.

https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/victoria-taft/2021/06/11/plexiglass-theater-to-fight-covid-is-being-given-the-hook-n1453751

Americans spent $750 million in 2020 to put plexiglass shields up between each other. Now, a Harvard researcher says that was mostly “hygiene theater” because the threat wasn’t from large droplets that a shield could stop but from airborne particles. They might help a store clerk who’s completely enclosed by the panels and dealing with strangers all day long. But a sheet of plexiglass between two desks is basically useless. Meanwhile, a study in the journal Science reports that if you put enough shields into a room, they could actually make conditions more dangerous. The best way to avoid the virus is through good ventilation, and the plexiglass panels can block air flow.

Ironically, as Victoria Taft notes at the link, the places with some of the best ventilation systems anywhere are Las Vegas casinos, and they shut all of those down. Or, of course, the great outdoors, where the experts told us not to go; just stay home and breathe the same air as everyone in your family.

What would we do without experts? Aside from live longer, that is?


About That G7 Photo

By Mike Huckabee

World leaders at the G7 summit posed for a weird, socially-distanced photo. The idea was to show a return to normal and in-person meetings – indeed, they had already fist-bumped and even hugged before the photo – but they stretched out for the picture to, as this story puts it, “placate their respective nations’ popular opinion.”

https://www.westernjournal.com/fully-vaccinated-world-leaders-space-awkward-g7-group-photo/

First of all, if they were actually “leaders,” they wouldn’t find it necessary to make believe to placate popular opinion. They’d be leading popular opinion. Second, all of them are fully vaccinated. If they wanted to show the world how cool it is to get vaccinated and return to normal, why are they sending the message that vaccinations might not work so you’d better keep social-distancing?

We learn from this that the G in G7 doesn’t necessarily stand for “Genius.”


She Built A Wall

By Mike Huckabee

Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors recently stepped down amid a barrage of criticism over her spending millions of dollars on expensive homes in upscale, mostly white neighborhoods. Now, a new controversy has arisen after it was revealed that she spent an extra $35,000 on fencing, a call box, cameras and other security measures for her new $1.4 million home to, as one neighbor put it, “keep the riff-raff out.”

https://www.westernjournal.com/black-lives-matter-founder-builds-expensive-wall-around-newly-purchased-upscale-house-report/

To be fair, you can’t expect her to put up with any violent, threatening protesters who might show up and want to trespass or take her property. And she can’t rely on calling the police; for some reason, they’re taking a lot longer to show up these days.

 

G7 Feedback

By Mike Huckabee

Isn’t it a relief that we no longer have President Trump to “embarrass” America on the world stage? As you can guess, that’s a sarcastic set-up to this story about President Biden’s first overseas trip. Thursday, he signed a New Atlantic Charter that reads more like the Democratic platform or the top hashtags on Cher’s Twitter page.

https://www.westernjournal.com/biden-signs-new-atlantic-charter-lists-climate-crisis-disinformation-among-biggest-threats-world/

And he’s not exactly making friends and influencing people in the UK.

https://www.westernjournal.com/bidens-g-7-trip-gets-off-bad-start-lawmaker-says-senile-wont-remember-told/

https://issuesinsights.com/2021/06/10/g7-is-more-a-g6-5-with-the-cognitively-challenged-biden-in-attendance/

The writer of that story asks, if our friends are saying things like that about Biden, imagine what our enemies are saying about him behind closed doors.

On the other hand, a Pew survey in 12 foreign nations found that approval of America and faith in the US President to “do the right thing in world affairs” has skyrocketed since Biden replaced Trump.

Frankly, hearing that people in foreign nations are happier about who’s in charge in the USA than people in the USA are doesn’t strike me as good news for the USA.


Accused Of “Blocking Democracy”

By Mike Huckabee

West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin and Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema are taking a barrage of bile from leftists for refusing to agree to do away with the Senate filibuster. They’re accused of “blocking democracy,” because “democracy” means using a single tie-breaking vote to force a radical partisan agenda down the throats of half of America that wants nothing to do with it. I don’t think this word “democracy” means what they think it means.

But it’s possible that, as is often the case, the screeching leftist Twitter mob is just fooling itself and doesn’t comprehend reality. That reality is that there are other Democrat Senators who also don’t want to lose the filibuster.

https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2021/06/10/dems-melting-down-because-its-not-just-manchin-and-sinema-objecting-n394858

They may or may not support the radical agenda, but they know it’s a bad move to kill the filibuster to try to ram it through and infuriate voters. That’s a surefire way to lose Congress to the Republicans and then find themselves in the role of powerless minority. Unlike “progressives,” they have the ability to think beyond their next move and consider the consequences of their actions.

Those other Senators aren’t speaking up because why bring the mob’s attacks on themselves when Manchin and Sinema are taking all the flak for them? But that doesn’t mean that if those two cave, there would be 50 votes to kill the filibuster.

Meanwhile, Manchin shows no signs of caving. In fact, his latest pronouncement is almost guaranteed to make the leftists’ heads explode like watermelons at a Gallagher performance.

https://www.westernjournal.com/moderate-democrat-pledges-uphold-hyde-amendment-bans-use-federal-funds-abortion/

Manchin no doubt understands what the hysterics on Twitter don’t: he’s from a heavily red state, and if the Dems threaten him too much, he could switch to the GOP and not only get reelected but return the Senate majority to the Republicans. So they might want to think twice before calling him nasty names. If they tick him off enough, he could crush their power-mad dreams in a nanosecond.

A One Day Difference

By Mike Huckabee

President Biden has largely dismissed and denigrated President Trump’s vaccine distribution plan and taken credit for having enough vaccinations for all Americans by the end of last month. But an analysis by the America First Policy Institute found that not only did Biden’s vaccine distribution closely mirror Trump’s, but the Trump plan would have produced the same number of vaccinations by June 1. That means all of Biden’s efforts made a difference of precisely one day.

    I am no fan of Pres. Biden, but I think it is nitpicking to say he made a "gaffe" about the 15 months of the pandemic. He said, "Since January 20", which I would assume means "January 2020", not the 20th of January of this year, C'mon, man, cut him a break. He makes enough gaffes that we don't have to manufacture one.
