American Opinion of George Floyd Changes Drastically as Support for BLM Implodes

By Steve Turley

The city of Minneapolis – along with the entire nation – is bracing for the trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin. Chauvin has been charged with second degree murder and manslaughter in the death of George Floyd, which incited massive race riots in urban areas across the country. George Floyd’s death also sparked the ascension of Black Lives Matter as the premiere political movement of the far left. At the beginning, public sentiment soared for Floyd and BLM; now, it appears that support for both is crashing. In view of the upcoming trial and the rising tensions associated with it, the results of a new USA Today/Ispos poll came out showing a dramatic shift in opinion over George Floyd and BLM. [more...]

Unprecedented Government Spending

By Antony Davies, Co-Author of COOPERATION AND COERCION

The federal government has pumped $4.8 trillion into the economy over the past 11 months. Imagine what the U.S. would have looked like had the government just divided that $4.8 trillion among U.S. households. What would that have done? There are 123 million households in the U.S. Given income cutoffs, the stimulus checks have been going out to around 80 percent of those households. Had the government simply divided that $4.8 trillion evenly among the 80 percent of 123 million households, each would have received a check for almost $50,000. Now think about what the U.S. would look like right now if 80 percent of households had received a check for $50,000. For one thing, and for the first time in the history of the human race, a country would have entirely eradicated poverty. [more...]

America May Finally Be Corona-Weary

By Cheryl Chumley

A Morning Consult tracking poll just found that for the first time in a year, when the Coronavirus hit, more Americans than not feel comfortable eating at a restaurant, inside, at a table, seated among friends and strangers both.... with face masks, without face masks, what have you - but inside, and eating. If that sounds lame, it’s not. It shows America may finally be hitting the stage called Coronavirus-weary. [more...]

The Police De-funders Have a Lot More Cops Than the Taxpayers Whose Police They Want to De-fund

By Daniel Greenfield

Washington D.C. has the highest ratio of police to people of any major city in the country. There are 650 officers for every 100,000 residents in D.C. That’s 40% higher than any other major city in America including Chicago and Baltimore. It has a 58% higher police ratio than New York, more than double that of Boston, and triple that of L.A. But that’s nothing compared to the private police force dedicated only to protecting Congress. The Capitol Police, which has been in the spotlight since the Capitol Riot, has over 2,000 sworn officers. Pelosi’s private police force is the 19th largest police force in America. [more...]

TV Shows Push Gun Control Myths - in Sync with Biden

By Dr. John Lott

The Biden administration promised gun control groups that it will soon roll out a massive push for limits on firearm purchases and other measures. And the television networks aren't waiting to lay the groundwork for this effort. CBS is in a full-court press for gun control on its evening entertainment television shows. The bad guys are always white supremacists who use machine guns - supposedly AR-15s - to commit mass public shootings. Criminals in Mexico supposedly get machine guns from the United States. A father's desire to protect his family only leads to tragedy when his daughter gets into the gun safe and uses the weapon in a mass public shooting. And guns in the home pose a danger for children. Gun registration is necessary for solving crime. [more...]
