France's Ministry of the Interior found that one Covid vaccination or screening center has been vandalized per day on average since mid-July, with around 20 such sites across the country attacked, local media reported on Tuesday.

Information gathered from the Ministry of the Interior shows that there have been 20 attacks on vaccination hubs and Covid testing centers nationwide from July 14 to August 9.

A vaccination center in Landes, southwestern France was reportedly defaced on July 19, with vandals writing 'Nazis' and 'collaborators', alongside dozens of swastikas. Meanwhile, the word 'genocide' was painted on the floor of another hub in Vendôme just over a week later.

Comment: Macron's government is plowing ahead with vaccine and lockdown policies despite the clear will of the citizenry. How long before they blow up in his face? The French are not a patient people.

The elite Beltway pedigree of Jan. 6th's Officer 'Redneck'

The only question now is which book publisher will give Fanone a multimillion-dollar advance.

Officer Michael Fanone plays the part well.

He speaks with what most Americans would consider a rural drawl. He wears flannel shirts during CNN interviews and photo shoots. Large tattoos bedazzle his neck and arms; he has a beard. In a swooning front-cover profile for Time magazine, Fanone told Molly Ball he considers himself to be one of the "rednecks" who voted for Donald Trump.

But a few overlooked yet eye-popping details in Ball's piece undermine Fanone's public persona as the besieged D.C. undercover narcotics officer who donned an official uniform for the first time in 10 years to help rescue his colleagues from bloodthirsty Trump "insurrectionists" on January 6. Fanone has been on a nonstop publicity tour for seven months, stalking Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill and confronting his police union for its lack of support.

Comment: There are some who have compared the the Jan 6th 'riot' to the Reichstag fire; a trumped up pretext for implementing sweeping political change, with the requisite show trials and silencing of potential witnesses.

Ben Shapiro masterfully breaks down critical race theory on real time with Bill Maher

Daily Wire editor emeritus Ben Shapiro masterfully dismantled Critical Race Theory in just sixty-five seconds during his appearance on "Real Time with Bill Maher" on Saturday, breaking down the concept, which those on the left are trying to integrate into K-12 curriculum, in a concise explanation.

Shapiro was asked about Critical Race Theory during the "Real Time" panel, where he faced off with MSNBC contributor Malcolm Nance. In an apparent effort to avoid being accused of "redefining" the concept of CRT, Shapiro took the audience through the theory, which he studied in law school.

Comment: James Lindsay hit the nail on the head in his article on Critical Race Theory:

It is against liberalism and the liberal order upon which Western societies are founded, and it rejects both equality and neutral principles of constitutional law (these were the backbone of both the abolitionist movement that ended slavery and the Civil Rights Movement). It also rejects legal reasoning and Enlightenment rationalism. This makes Critical Race Theory unreasonable, illiberal, against equality, and anti-American, by definition.

[...]

They begin with the assumption of racism and look to find it.

The French president has called on all people to get jabbed as he spoke of his concern about the trajectory of the Covid-19 pandemic in France as the increasing prevalence of the Delta variant drives up hospitalizations.

Speaking on Wednesday at the opening of the Health Defense Council, French President Emmanuel Macron reiterated his aim that all French people who can get the vaccine, elect to do so.

The president's call came amid what he described as a "more than delicate health situation" in France, largely due to the increasing prevalence of the Delta variant.

Virginia teacher resigns at school board meeting, denounces 'highly politicized agendas'

A Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) teacher in Virginia resigned in front of the school board Tuesday, stating in a defiant and emotional speech that she refused to continue pushing their "highly politicized agendas."

"Within the last year, I was in one of my so-called equity trainings that White, Christian, able-bodied females currently have the power in our schools and 'this has to change,'" teacher Laura Morris said during the public comment period of the board meeting.

"Clearly, you've made your point. You no longer value me or many other teachers you've employed in this county. So since my contract outlines the power that you have over my employment in Loudoun County Public Schools, I thought it necessary to resign in front of you."

"School board, I quit," she said. Choking up, she added: "I quit your policies, I quit your training, and I quit being a cog in a machine that tells me to push highly politicized agendas to our most vulnerable constituents - children."

Federal judge blocks Biden mandate requiring hospitals to provide gender transition surgeries

A federal judge has blocked the Biden administration from enforcing a mandate on several religious organizations that would have required them to perform gender transition surgeries or abortions.

Judge Reed O'Connor of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas permanently blocked the Biden administration from applying the mandate to all plaintiffs in the case. Those plaintiffs include the Franciscan Alliance, a Catholic hospital system that operates twelve hospitals in Indiana and Illinois, in addition to numerous other health facilities in those states.

The administration may not enforce the mandate on plaintiffs "in a manner that would require them to perform or provide insurance coverage for gender-transition procedures or abortions," O'Connor wrote in his ruling.

Wisconsin governor vetoes GOP voting bills and tells counties to ignore subpoenas from GOP audits

Wisconsin's Democratic Gov. Tony Evers vetoed a series of six election security bills Tuesday sent to his desk by the state's GOP-controlled legislature.

Republicans do not have the votes to override Evers' veto, as no Democrats supported the legislation in June.

The governor also said that two Wisconsin counties should not comply with subpoenas to turn over ballots and voting equipment as part of an investigation being led by the Republican head of the Assembly elections committee.

'Hell no,' Evers said when asked if the local election clerks should comply. 'You´ve seen what´s going on in Arizona. It´s a clown show.'

Arizona's partisan election audit has been full of embarrassing revelations, the suspension of the audit's account and one of its early supporters describing the process as botched.

Stephen Colbert grills Brian Stelter on CNN's Chris Cuomo scandal, calls out network's 'odd conflict of rules'

The Late Show host pressed Stelter about the 'boundaries' CNN set for the Cuomo brothers

The Late Show host Stephen Colbert held CNN's left-wing media guru Brian Stelter's feet to the fire on Tuesday night over his network's "odd conflict of rules" regarding its star anchor Chris Cuomo following the stunning resignation of Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

"In a small way, your network is involved in this story because, of course, the governor's brother Chris Cuomo has his show," Colbert began the exchange before pointing to the New York Times' recent reporting about the CNN star advising the governor to resign. "How does that create any conflict over at CNN behind closed doors? Are people mad at him? Or is he in trouble?"

Comment: Why the pile-on now, when all of Cuomo's atrocious behavior has been on display for years? Is the spectacle of an impeachment over sexual harassment meant to distract from his murderous Covid nursing home policies? Is the choice of resignation a lesser evil for Cuomo personally than some unspecified consequence?

Mattel, the manufacturing company behind the iconic toy Barbie, is facing fire from the social media-driven cancel mob purportedly for not including an Asian Barbie doll in its new line of dolls commemorating the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

Mattel collaborated with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Tokyo 2020 organizers to release the new collection, according to a report by CNN.

"#Barbie is committed to empowering girls to participate in sports by capturing the fun and friendship of the season, and inspiring kids to find the athlete within," Barbie tweeted, showing off its five new "#tokyo2020" dolls, none of which appear to be Asian.

Governor Kate Brown signs bill ending requirement for reading and math proficiency to graduate high school in Oregon

She doesn't want to talk about it.

For the next five years, an Oregon high school diploma will be no guarantee that the student who earned it can read, write or do math at a high school level.

Gov. Kate Brown had demurred earlier this summer regarding whether she supported the plan passed by the Legislature to drop the requirement that students demonstrate they have achieved those essential skills. But on July 14, the governor signed Senate Bill 744 into law.

Through a spokesperson, the governor declined again Friday to comment on the law and why she supported suspending the proficiency requirements.

Comment: Speechless . . . .

"No" should be sufficient reason.

That cop deserves the harshest sentence and the other cops should be clamoring for it.
