Even Application Of The Law

“The media is the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent.”

– Malcolm X

“Dear Attorney General Garland: We represent investigative journalist James O’Keefe and the not-for-profit news media company Project Veritas in defense of your Justice Department’s protracted attack on them. … You and I both know that if the New York Times gained possession of the diary of former President Trump’s adult daughter, it would have published it page-by-page for weeks on end, selectively editing the content to publish the most salacious entries in the diary, without regard to the harm it would have done to the person in question. Mr. O’Keefe and Project Veritas took an additional step that further affirmed their responsible journalism. Through an attorney, the journalists turned Ms. [Ashley] Biden’s diary and personal effects into local law enforcement in the jurisdiction in which the source had indicated the items were found. … The facts and law here lead to the inescapable conclusion that your prosecutors in the Southern District of New York have engaged in an unprecedented and politically motivated attack on the free press, without factual or legal justification, and in violation of DOJ’s regulations, guidelines, and your pronouncements. … How on earth can you allow the attack on Project Veritas and its journalists to continue, and avoid being fairly tagged as a partisan, political hypocrite who wields your power in defense of an adult child of the President? There appears to be no adult supervision in the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York. It is for you to decide whether to allow your prosecutors to continue to set dangerous precedent, gut First Amendment protections, and facilitate the decline of a free and independent press, or to put your money where your mouth is, demonstrate that your memorandum was not a petty political ploy aimed at the prior administration, and terminate this abhorrent action that threatens a free and independent press.”

——

“These are dark times for our Nation, as my beautiful home, Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, was raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents.

Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before, and it’s important that you know that it wasn’t just my home that was violated – it was the home of every patriotic American who I have been fighting for since that iconic moment I came down the Golden Escalators in 2015.

I stood up to the Radical Left’s corruption. I restored power to the people and truly delivered for our Country like we have never seen before. The establishment hated it.

Now, as they watch my endorsed candidates win big victories and see my dominance in all polls, they are trying to stop the Republican Party and me once more. The lawlessness, political persecution, and Witch Hunt, must be exposed and stopped.”

1939 – “Greenland’s Glaciers Melting, Scientist Says”

“CEDAR RAPIDS GAZETTE, MONDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1939.

Greenland’s Glaciers Melting, Scientist Says

STOCKHOLM, Sweden (INS)—
All the glaciers in eastern Greenland are rapidly melting, declared Prof. Hans Ahlmann, Swedish geologist, in a report to the Geographical society here on his recent expedition to the Arctic sub- continent.

“Everything points to the fact that the climate in that region has. been growing warmer during recent years,” the professor said.

“It may without exaggeration be said that the glaciers—like those in Norway—face the possibility of a catastrophic collapse.”

1941 – Glaciers Rapidly Disappearing

“THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1941,

Melting Glaciers Threaten Beauty of Parks in Rockies

Ice Rivers Retreating 25 to 100 Feet Yearly, Scientist Reports

By THOMAS R. HENRY,

Glaciers in the United States and the Canadian Rockies are retreating at a rate of from 25 to 100 feet a year, threatening the scenic beauty of Glacier National Park and some of the favorite tourist resorts of Western Canada.

They also are growing thinner, so an accelerated retreat can be expected in the future.

This was the substance of a re- port submitted to the American Geophysical Union here today by Dr. F. E. Matthes, chairman of the Glacier Research Committee.

Few of these glaciers are more than three miles long. This means that within the present generation they may disappear. The same general picture is presented by the European and New Zealand Alps. In the former, the ice rivers are much longer, so they can be expected to persist for centuries.

Warmer Climate Responsible.

Perhaps the fastest retreat is that experienced in Mount Rainier National Park where the rate is between a mile and a mile and a half each year. Most of the Alaskan glaciers are melting rapidly, although a few of the larger ones actually are advancing.

The Backup Scam

Without any evidence, academics have been claiming that increasing levels of CO2 are causing the oceans to acidify and dissolve corals.

This never made any sense because corals evolved when CO2 levels were fifteen times higher than now.

Measured data never provided any evidence in support of the scam.

The Backup Scam

“The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness. As one participant put it, “poor methods get results”

Lancet Editor Richard Horton
