What to Do About the Department of Justice and more | Newt Gingrich

Very recommendable! His new 16 minutes long speech has already 14,000 views on YouTube! Gingrich is a smart cookie, but his age is catching up with him. I think, I have viewed/read similar speeches by him before.

The Great COVID Cover-Up by Rand Paul

Very recommendable! Why is Dr. Fauci still not indicted! The Chinese had already a vaccination by early 2020. How was this possible? The U.S. government financed gain of function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and Fauci lied about it.

The Business of Transgenderism | Christopher F. Rufo

Very recommendable! Learn e.g. about Governor Pritzker (of the wealthy Pritzker family) of Illinois and his cousin, the first billionaire transgender woman.

Do We Have a Constitution Anymore?

Recommendable! The speaker delivers another example of what an awful Majority Lead of the U.S. Senate Chuck Schumer (D) actually is!!!!

The President’s Advisory 1776 Commission Report

Unfortunately, I have had no time yet to read it! However, I bet most of its content is to my liking! 

None other than Larry P. Arnn (president of Hillsdale College) was the chair of this commission. Victor Davis Hansen was another member of it!

"... The Commission issued its 1776 Report this past Monday. The report calls for a return to the unifying principles stated in the Declaration of Independence. It quotes the greatest Americans, black and white, men and women, in devotion to these principles. It acknowledges the many ways we have fallen short of them even as it celebrates, following Abraham Lincoln, the influence for good that they exercised to the benefit of all. It acknowledges the way we fall short of them today and argues that it is only by returning to them that our current evils can be corrected. It calls for a civics education that fosters reverence for these principles, beginning with an accurate and honest teaching of American history. It is not a partisan document. ..."

A few quickly picked excerpts:
  1. "The Declaration of Independence is the ring-bolt to the chain of your nation’s destiny; so, indeed, I regard it. The principles contained in that instrument are saving principles. Stand by those principles, be true to them on all occasions, in all places, against all foes, and at whatever cost."
    Frederick Douglass"
  2. "History underscores the overwhelming importance of religious faith in American life, but some today see religious practice and political liberty to be in conflict and hold that religion is divisive and should be kept out of the public square. The founders of America held a very different view. They not only believed that all people have a right to religious liberty but also that religious faith is indispensable to the success of republican government. “The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time,” Thomas Jefferson once wrote. “The hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them.” The idea that faith sustains the principles of equality and natural rights is deeply rooted in American society and proven through human experience."
  3. “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, Religion and morality are indispensable supports,” George Washington observed in his Farewell Address. “In vain would that man claim the tribute of Patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great Pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of Men and citizens.” He went on to warn: "Let us with caution indulge the supposition, that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that National morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."
  4. [Racial, sexual, and gender group] Identity politics divide Americans by placing them perpetually in conflict with each other. This extreme ideology assaults and undermines the American principle of equality in several key ways.

Adam Andrzejewski: Depth of the Swamp

Very recommendable! Incredible waste of taxpayer money! Makes you puke! Before Trump, Reagan was perhaps the last president who tried to do something about it! More transparency of government spending thanks to Open The Books!

Big Tech and Political Manipulation with Robert Epstein

Very recommendable! Very concerning! Learn among other things about hard to prove in the court of law ephemeral manipulations of voter behavior by Google. The speech is actually only 37 minutes long. Unfortunately, Eppstein did not use any presentation material or visual aides etc.

To give you a little idea what those ephemeral manipulations look like here is what Google YouTube is doing or days now to all videos critical of the outcome of the November election (right below each video Google reminds who won). Is this not pernicious or what?:
