The Will Smith-Chris Rock Oscars slapping incident is as overplayed (4 days now) as the race card in a closely-contested Democrat election … a little ironic since both these grandstanders are African-Americans.

It Dribbles Out
More suggestive evidence of 2020 voter fraud has come forward … see: Powerline Post. Pilgrim, may I suggest that this analysis is important not because the 2020 election can be redone … but because the flaws need to be corrected before we vote again.
John Hinderaker makes the same point I made after the Maricopa, AZ audit … once the mail-in ballot is separated from its envelope … any amount of fraud discovered with the envelope after the fact … cannot be corrected.
Like that movie “Liar, Liar” where Jim Carrey is compelled to blurt out the unvarnished truth … and as we have seen much of lately, Biden’s dementia seems not to allow him to suppress the truth from off-the-cuff comments (Russian regime change, 82nd Airborne into Ukraine, etc., etc.) suggests to me his pre-election bragging about Dems voter fraud preparations was not a slip of the tongue.
As I have said in my blog, why can’t the Biden gang run the country as well as they stole the election?
Even more important … is not the Jan 6 Pelosi Star Chamber just an attempt to squash this inquiry into and correct this massive voter fraud by labeling it an attempt to “overturn the election?” Now you understand … the fraud continues …

Sin of Omission
If you avoid seeing it or hearing about it, it doesn’t exist. — Fletcher
Pilgrim, have you noticed a major difference between the media on the right versus that on the left? Well, the media on the right is continually showing video clips of the media on the left saying ludicrous things. Whereas the opposite is seldom true from the left. Could this be because the left does not want its unquestioning audience to get a glimpse of the honest truth? Your faithful blogger thinks so.
STAND UP AGAINST SINS OF OMISSION!
Ukraine Deal?
Russia will not lose this war … no matter what it takes.— Vladimir Putin
As of this moment it looks like an agreement might be reached between Putin and Zelensky as to the future of Ukraine. The terms are vague, but it seems Russia will pull back from the siege of the west and Ukraine will guarantee its neutrality and not attempt to join NATO.
This seems a result of America’s and NATO’s preference that this conflict end in a stalemate rather than Russia being humiliated in defeat. This preference has been demonstrated by their slow-walking of military aid to Ukraine (where are the switchblade drones?) And we say Putin is duplicitous!
Based upon Putin’s past (non)adherence to his pacts, Meta (née, Facebook) has decided to deem this a virtual agreement!
POOF!
Afterward: Pilgrim, are you suspecting, like I am, that Biden (and a few other NATOites) might secretly be pulling for Russia? (Blackmail … or maybe even retribution?)

Make-Believe World
Facebook has taken a dramatic turn in its corporate direction … investing possibly billions into the world of the make believe … cryptocurrencies, electronic fungible tokens, virtual reality, computer games and other ephemera … that which lives entirely within that electronic cage called the computer. And Facebook has even changed its name to “Meta” to emphasize the degree of its commitment to this metaverse.
Those of us who grew up in the real, non-virtual world find this transformation a little strange and unlikely to succeed. But for that sizable population of our youth who spend many hours a day with eyeballs glued to a computer screen … this move makes perfect sense.

Reader Contribution
"The danger to America is not Joe Biden, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of a Biden presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Biden, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Biden, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their president." — Translated from a Prague, Czech Republic newspaper

Barr the Door
Recent Headline: Barr calls progressives ‘dangerous,’ indicates he could support Trump in presidential rematch
Recent Headline: Former AG Barr accuses Joe Biden of lying to the American people about Hunter’s laptop
Paradox thy name is Bill Barr. The AG under Donald Trump is conflicted. Like many of us, he was very much behind Trump’s policies but bemoaned his personality. He didn’t like his “petty” tweets. He thought Trump was too quick on the trigger when responding to a slight.
And, most of all, President Trump’s persistent claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen was too much for Barr. These piques in the late months of his presidency soured Barr to the point that he publicly broke with his boss. Parts of the book and his comments on his book tour suggest he might be trying to mend these fences.
I am unable to read Barr’s book, but, as a footnote, here is a review: The American Greatness. It is somewhat of a scattershot and doesn’t clearly differentiate between Barr’s and the author’s opinion … but it does hit the high points.
I once greatly admired Bill Barr. Now, I am not so sure. His FBI had Hunter Biden’s laptop for 18 months before the left media called it “Russian disinformation” right before the presidential election. At this critical juncture, Barr stayed mum.
