   You supported Trumps war in Iraq and since you did you should applaud Biden’s support of the war.
   Let us not mock the senescent…….

   And AOC said you can’t carry a gun in DC. To think she represents a large number of Democrats….well, birds of a feather and all that Jazz.

   ‘FBI’s desperate pretext to keep spying on Carter Page: He might write a book!‘
   Newly declassified FISA application shows FBI, without proof, portrayed First Amendment-protected activities as Russian plot.
   “Nine months into a relentless effort to spy on Carter Page with the most awesome surveillance tools the U.S. possesses, the FBI had no proof the former Trump adviser had colluded with Russia to hijack the 2016 election.
   In fact, the bureau hid from the FISA court the fact that it knew Page was actually a U.S. asset who had helped the CIA and that in a secret recording with an informant he had denied all the core allegations against him with significant proof.
   But it wanted to keep spying on its target for another three months. So what did the FBI cough up to the FISA judge to keep up its surveillance and its now-debunked claim that Page might be a Russian agent of influence?
   The FBI actually argued that Page’s lawful exercise of his First Amendment rights — he was giving media interviews and considering writing a book — might be proof he was carrying out a Russian plot, according to a newly declassified version of the final FISA warrant reviewed by Just the News.”
   “It offered no proof for such a dramatic allegation. No source. No document. No intercept. Nothing. Just the affirmation “The FBI believes …”

   It’s all related, but correlation does not equate to causation….or does it?

   ‘The Americans did this very well’: Trump administration’s vaccine effort wows the world’
   “When a French president offers public praise to the United States, it’s bound to turn heads.
   Emmanuel Macron, who several times publicly squabbled with former President Donald Trump over the course of Trump’s presidency, openly expressed admiration of the Trump administration’s Herculean efforts to develop, test, manufacture and distribute a coronavirus vaccine on a national and eventually global scale.
   “The Americans did this very well,” Macron told media in January. He confessed at that time that he was “very admiring” of the Trump administration’s “extremely innovative model” of vaccine production.“…..
   “Macron himself last month admitted that the European Union was less equipped than Washington to mobilize such a logistical effort. The European Commission, he admitted, had been called upon “to do something that isn’t within its competence,” in contrast to the relative proficiency of the U.S. government.
   Warp Speed was buoyed by billions of dollars in funding, the mobilization of large swaths of the federal government, a partnership with major drug companies, an aggressive development and trial schedule, and countless scientific workers, public health experts and civil servants, all in order to realize Trump’s stated goal of a viable vaccine by December 2020.
   That optimism was not widely shared at the outset of the project. Even some of Trump’s closest pandemic advisers at the time were dubious. Anthony Fauci, who at the outset of the pandemic was a regular presence at the White House, intimated in April of last year that a successful vaccine program might take “a year to a year and a half” to come to fruition.
   The Washington Post reported that same month on significant doubt among medical experts and Trump administration officials that the vaccine would be available by the end of the year. Peter Jay Hotez, the dean for the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor University’s College of Medicine, told the paper that a “reasonable timeline” of vaccine rollout would be the “second half” of 2021, the Post reported.
   The first non-trial COVID vaccine injection was administered in the U.S. in mid-December, five months ahead of Fauci’s more optimistic timeline and nearly a year ahead of his more pessimistic estimate. “

   I think the French miss Trump already. Even the friggin French reluctantly agreed that Trump’s policy towards Iran was the correct one…because it worked.
   Now, Iran is demanding concessions from Biden! No happy face icon to insert when Biden runs foreign policy. Back to anti-Israel and pro-Iran. And Democrat anti-semitism is picking up the pace.

   Starlink (Elon Musk) sent out sales offers today… for me at least. I took the bait.
   “During beta, users can expect to see data speeds vary from 50Mb/s to 150Mb/s and latency from 20ms to 40ms in most locations over the next several months as we enhance the Starlink system. There will also be brief periods of no connectivity at all.”
