Premise: Incentives drive all human behavior. The corollary: How to destroy a country: A vast social security and support system that serves as a magnet for those who would rather not work. An open immigration policy that does not screen immigrants to determine their ability and willingness to provide for themselves and their families. An open immigration policy that does not screen for political and/or religious ideologies that are a threat to the country. Economic incentives large enough to incentivize immigrants on the state dole to have large numbers of children, but insufficient for educated and economically productive mothers to be able to quit to raise a family. The declining fertility of the most educated and productive women due to their delay to begin a family as a result of their desire and/or need to advance their careers, among other reasons, to live a life they deem consistent with their educational achievements and/or to repay their student debts. Amnesty programs that give citizenship and voting power to illegal immigrants without consideration of their economic productivity or their threat to the country due to their religious or political ideologies. The changing demographics and increased population due to the above factors. The state responding to protests by increasing social support. The continued failure to punish and hold accountable violent and looting rioters. Government managed by a massive and growing unelected bureaucracy. Government fraud, waste, and abuse contributed to ballooning budgets. Anti-business legislation that makes it difficult for businesses to compete in a global marketplace being disrupted by AI, including restrictions on firing even poorly performing employees. Overly burdensome, globally uncompetitive, corporate taxation. Continuous increases in personal taxes to raise funds to provide for the rapidly growing welfare state. The substantial majority of the tax burden levied on a small percentage of the population. A growing percentage of the electorate paying no taxes and receiving welfare. The introduction or threat of a wealth tax including the taxation of unrealized gains, i.e., taxes on paper wealth. The flight of the most productive business builders and highest taxpayers to lower tax countries with lesser security concerns. A growing percentage of the electorate voting for candidates that support increased welfare and laws favorable to, and/or that match the cultural and ideological needs and desires of a growing unproductive immigrant population. The rapid rise in anti-semitism and inadequate efforts to address this hatred. Increased borrowing by the state to fund the growing social burden. Higher sovereign interest rates due to all of the above. The resulting need to reduce expenditures to make the math work. Increasingly violent protests that make life less livable for the productive and law abiding citizens leading to their accelerated departure. And so on…

Dr. James P. Miller is not describing a few bad apples. He is describing the operating system. Hospitals inflated COVID numbers. They pushed remdesivir they already knew was dangerous. They denied care to the unvaccinated. Then they tried to destroy the doctors who would not play along. Read that last sentence again. “The head of infectious disease medicine at my hospital privately told me that he was working with the state government to restrict the civil rights of unvaccinated people.” That is not a protocol dispute. That is a physician admitting he was coordinating with government to strip patients of rights based on vaccination status. In an American hospital. Let me speak as a doctor who has actually stood in those rooms. When administrators decide a patient’s civil rights are negotiable, medicine has already ended. What remains is ideology in a white coat: count the cases the way the money wants them counted, give the drug the hospital is paid to give, isolate the unvaccinated, and punish any physician who treats the person in the bed instead of the spreadsheet. We said this in 2020. We were called dangerous for saying it. Early treatment existed. Informed consent existed. The doctor-patient relationship existed. They replaced all three with a federal playbook and a smear campaign against anyone who remembered their oath. This is not an isolated whistleblower. It is a pattern. History is catching up. Hospitals exist to treat patients. The moment they partner with the state to restrict civil rights, they have ceased to be hospitals. Never again.
Whistleblower Dr. James P. Miller tells Sen. Ron Johnson hospitals inflated COVID numbers, pushed remdesivir they knew was dangerous, denied care to the unvaccinated, and then tried to destroy the doctors who told the truth. “The head of infectious disease medicine at my hospital privately told me that he was working with the state government to restrict the civil rights of unvaccinated people.” x.com/AaronSiriSG/status/210…

Every glib, arrogant, virtue-signalling celebrity who’s broadcast the lie that kids will kill themselves if not allowed to transition deserves to have this read aloud to them non-stop through a megaphone for a year.
A landmark Finnish study has found a sharp rise in psychiatric illness among adolescents following sex-alteration procedures. The peer-reviewed study, published in Acta Paediatrica, tracked every young person under 23 who contacted Finland's gender clinics between 1996 and 2019. A total 2,083 individuals were studied, with 16,643 matched controls. They were followed for up to 25 years. Finland's health registers are mandatory, which means no one opts out — this is the complete national picture. The numbers: psychiatric morbidity rose from 9.8% to 60.7% in adolescents who underwent feminising reassignment, and from 21.6% to 54.5% in masculinising reassignment. Even after adjusting for prior psychiatric history, gender-referred adolescents faced five times the risk of male population controls, and three times the risk of female controls. "Psychiatric needs do not subside after medical gender reassignment," the authors concluded. Referrals after 2010 arrived sicker. 47.9% had already needed psychiatric treatment before their first clinic visit, against 15.3% among controls. The authors' read: for some adolescents, gender distress may be secondary to other mental health challenges. The evidence keeps mounting. The silencing continues anyway. How many more adolescents will be told this is "care"?

🚨 JUST IN: Sheridan Gorman's angel mom just dropped this raw truth nuke straight to Democrat members of Congress "I don't understand why it's only the REPUBLICAN side that cares about our American children!" "Basically what you just did, what you said was, 'I'm so sorry for your loss. I have a daughter too. I have a son. I feel your pain...'" "You DON'T feel my pain. Because the next words out of your mouth were, 'BUT.'" "There's no 'BUT' when your child is in a coffin!" "And I need you to understand that. And if you ever want to talk about it, I'm here, I'm going to buy you a bench. I'm going to buy. You can put that on the record. I'm going to buy Congress the bench. And they can come and sit and hold my hand and look me in the eye and explain to me why illegal immigrants are more important than my daughter. I really want to know what because I don't understand!"

This Administration will not stand idly by while some in the medical community harm our children in search of profit. That is why today I am referring this matter to the Department of Justice to launch a federal criminal investigation. We will stop this fraud and restore trust in public health. Thanks to @SecKennedy, @ADM_Christine and @AGToddBlanche for their tremendous work to shed light on the disastrous consequences of these radical practices. I look forward to working with @TheJusticeDept to ensure we hold anyone who has violated federal law accountable.

Dear Seattle leaders, Friday was magical. I saw families bonding, children playing soccer in the street, strangers high-fiving, fans celebrating, and contagious camaraderie everywhere I walked. You know this doesn’t have to be temporary, right? You really can choose to just keep our magnificent city a safe place for all of us to enjoy year round. Enforce the laws. Clean the streets. Get the addicts into treatment and the mentally ill into compassionate care. It’s time to restore this broken city. No more excuses. It’s really not complicated. 🇺🇸

The Nowak case clearly highlights that we need to stop treating racism as an ~infinite evil, not because Nowak was racist (no evidence of this) but because any time you create a social superweapon like accusations of racism are now, it’ll be misused horribly. What is racism? Ask 10 people and you’ll get 12 opinions. Historically, it meant someone who treats people badly in interpersonal interactions because of their race. Which is just, like, kinda annoying and slightly boorish. It’s not the apocalypse. There are many personal traits that are equally or more annoying. Now the definition has been ludicrously expanded to include a bunch of things even less objectionable than that, including belief in very plausible scientific claims and policy preferences that were near-universal for almost all of human history. Racism just isn’t a big deal. We have to take it off its pedestal. If Nowak had said something racist, it would morally change exactly nothing about the horror of what happened to him. He didn’t, but I feel over-focusing on that distracts from the fact that it wouldn’t matter if he had. Murder is worse than racism. Hell, shoplifting is worse than racism. Enough. Who cares.
