A majority of Americans would rather have a wall sealing America's southern border than the Green New Deal, according to a poll released on Wednesday.

Fifty-one percent of Americans say that they would rather have a border wall on America's southern border, compared to 31 percent who say that they want a Green New Deal, according to a poll released by Remington Research Group.

Republicans said that they would prefer a border wall by a 68-point margin, while Independents said that they would prefer a border wall by a two-to-one margin.

Overall, a majority of Americans, or 51 percent, said they oppose a Green New Deal, 51 percent of Democrats support the radical environmental program, while Republicans and Independents overwhelmingly oppose Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (D-NY) idea outright.

Comment: The Green New Deal contains a list of unfeasible and outlandish proposals that, under the eye of serious scrutiny, don't add up:

Russian social media video jokes that Elon Musk is a spy...US media investigates (really)

RT
Thu, 28 Feb 2019 20:42 UTC

When a video of a rear-driving car cruising around Russia's Stavropol region appeared online recently, one TV channel tweeted to ask Elon Musk what he thought. When Musk replied, people joked that he might be a Russian spy.

"How do you like this?" asked the NTV channel in a tweet, prompting a response from Musk (in Russian): "Haha awesome." Naturally, the exchange triggered some joking online about how the billionaire might be a secret Russian spy - the key word there being "joking."

RT's editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan even commented that "Agent Musk" had been busted.

But the light-hearted (and definitely not serious) speculation was all a bit too much for Polygraph, the "fact-checking" outfit of the US government-funded Radio Free Europe, which sprung into action to investigate.

The green spiel: Why renewable energy technology cannot save the planet

When I was a boy, my parents would sometimes take my sister and me camping in the desert. A lot of people think deserts are empty, but my parents taught us to see the wildlife all around us, including hawks, eagles, and tortoises.

After college, I moved to California to work on environmental campaigns. I helped save the state's last ancient redwood forest and blocked a proposed radioactive waste repository set for the desert.

In 2002, shortly after I turned 30, I decided I wanted to dedicate myself to addressing climate change. I was worried that global warming would end up destroying many of the natural environments that people had worked so hard to protect.

I thought the solutions were pretty straightforward: solar panels on every roof, electric cars in every driveway, etc. The main obstacles, I believed, were political. And so I helped organize a coalition of America's largest labor unions and environmental groups. Our proposal was for a $300 billion dollar investment in renewables. We would not only prevent climate change but also create millions of new jobs in a fast-growing high-tech sector.

Comment: Of course a lot of what the author states is based on the premise that climate change A/K/A global warming - is even a valid reason for wanting to 'go nuclear'. When in fact this hoax of monumental proportions should be taken out of the equation altogether.

Russian Orthodox priest says abortions 'scarier than the Holocaust'

RT
Thu, 28 Feb 2019 14:20 UTC

A senior cleric has compared the amount of abortions in Russia to the losses suffered during WWII as the Russian Orthodox Church continues to push for an abortion ban.

How many (people) did we kill ourselves? More than during the Second World War.

That's what Dimitry Smirnov, head of the Patriarchy Commission for Family, stated at a forum on reproductive health.

He said high abortion rates were a "mass murder of Russian children" and "worse than the Holocaust."

The cleric also called for public opinion on abortions to change, saying that a tolerant attitude to the issue will lead the Russian nation to "suicide."

Playboy model who went public with knowledge of elite pedophile ring, found dead

A Playboy model who uncovered evidence of an international elite pedophile ring has been found dead just weeks after publicly stating that she was fearing for her life and would "never commit suicide."

Model and actress Natacha Jaitt, 41, said that if she was found dead in suspicious circumstances it would be due to her attempts to expose the pedophile ring.

Ms Jaitt shot to fame in Europe after travelling to Spain from Argentina to find her fortune with just ten dollars in her pocket. Soon she was socializing with some of the wealthiest and most powerful people on the planet - and learning their secrets.

In 2018 the mother of two young children accused high-level politicians, sports stars, and entertainers of being involved in an international "evil beyond your worst nightmares" pedophile ring that systematically kidnaps children before plunging them into a life of depravity and ritual rape and torture.

'Child protective services' in the US lose 18,000 children a year - many aren't even reported missing

This year, an estimated 18,000 American children will disappear, but their families will not be looking for them. Neighbors will not canvas the streets. Our Facebook feeds will not show their pictures. And after six months, the records of their existence may close entirely.

This is the fate awaiting children who vanish while in the care and custody of America's child-protection system. Some run to escape abuse. Some follow false promises of love and security. Still others are kidnapped outright.

No matter the reason for falling off the grid, many of these boys and girls will resurface on the black market as child sex slaves. According to the FBI, more than half of trafficked children in America were in the care of social services when they disappeared. That is a damning statistic for a system whose sole purpose is to keep children safe.

According to left, the ridiculous lesson of the Jussie Smollett hoax isn't to be more skeptical of hate crimes, but to be more unquestioning!

On his FOX News program, Tucker Carlson said the official story that people will be told of the Jussie Smollett saga is that a hate crime may not have occurred in this specific case but hate crimes overall are common and on the rise.

"So this is the new official story, the one you are going to be hearing for a long time, the one your kids will be learning about in school and it's this," Carlson said Friday. "A specific hate crime may not have happened in this case, but hate crimes overall are incredibly common and the incidence of them is rising, so the lesson of Jussie Smollett isn't to be more skeptical of hate crimes, but to be more credulous."

"CNN wants that to be your take away from the whole thing. It doesn't matter that its anchor slandered and defamed almost half the country over a lie. There is a much more important point here, listen," he said.

"Hate hoaxes are so common that you could write a whole book about them and people have, it's all public," Carlson said. "You ought to look it up. Spend an afternoon reading the stories before they get scrubbed off the internet. It's an education. You will never believe CNN again. Trust me."

A Harvard law professor is representing Harvey Weinstein, but students say this makes them feel unsafe, and are demanding his resignation

Ronald Sullivan's choice of clients is "not only upsetting, but deeply trauma-inducing," according to activist students.

Ronald S. Sullivan Jr. is a law professor at Harvard University and faculty dean of Winthrop House, one of the college's 12 residential houses. He was the first black man to serve in such a position, and also directs Harvard's Criminal Justice Institute and Trial Advocacy Workshop. In 2008, he advised the campaign of then-Sen. Barack Obama on criminal justice issues. He represented Michael Brown's family in their suit against the city of Ferguson, Missouri, and his work has led to the release of over 6,000 wrongfully incarcerated people.

You might expect Sullivan to be in good standing with the progressive activist community at Harvard. You would be wrong.

Earlier this month, more than 50 students attended a protest demanding that Sullivan resign his position as dean over alleged #MeToo failings. The Association of Black Harvard Women also wants him gone. "What has been made especially clear is that you have failed us," they wrote in a letter. "You have failed the Black women in this community, not only as one of the few Black Faculty Deans on campus but also as a community leader-someone who we respected and looked to for guidance."

Cashless society: Danish government moving towards eliminating all cash

The Local
Wed, 27 Feb 2019 00:00 UTC

The government is considering giving stores and gas stations the option of becoming cash-free as a measure against crime.

Lawmakers are to consider easing current rules which make it compulsory for the vast majority of stores to accept cash payments, DR reports.

Suggested changes to the rules would allow businesses such as petrol stations, convenience stores and clothing shops to choose to only accept card and online forms of payment.

Such a measure would provide additional security for stores, Business Minister Rasmus Jarlov said.

"Fewer people use cash today, so we think there should be a balance between the difficulty and security risks placed on business owners and the benefits of accepting cash," Jarlov told DR.

Political bias is destroying people's faith in journalism

Lara Logan, former correspondent for "60 Minutes," caused a stir last week when, on a podcast called "Mike Drop," she said that too many in the media have become "political activists." Here, she explains to The Post how one-sided reporting has undermined the credibility of the press.

I was a working journalist before I could legally drink. On Saturday nights in Durban, South Africa, when most kids in high school were partying with friends, my last job was to hand deliver first-edition copies of the Sunday newspaper where I worked to the police station, the fire station, the hospital and the morgue.

It was a violent time in South Africa. The people had risen up against the injustice of Apartheid to fight for freedom and the region where I grew up was one of the bloodiest. So I persuaded the guys on night shift at the morgue to break the rules and tell me how many dead bodies they had received. I asked so many questions, they gave in and let me count the bodies myself. It mattered because no one knew how many people were dying every night in the political violence. The police had a habit of clearing the dead from the streets so the government could hide the truth.

But on that one night, every week, in that one place, I knew the truth. And no one could take it from me because I learned it first hand.
