Random links of interest, concern or curiosity from the past week or so, that deserve at least a SHORT mention:
The ‘Unknown Person’: For six years, a man who refuses to identify himself has been held in a Canadian maximum-security prison ~ This dude is amazingly tenacious, but this story also speaks volumes about the impotence of Canadian law enforcement ~
The only thing the government seems sure of is that the man is not who he claims to be — a French citizen named Herman Emmanuel Fankem […]
In a remarkable display of defiance, over four-and-a-half years he refused to attend 51 detention review hearings. Each hearing ordered his continued detention.
After Making Bernie Sign Loyalty Pledge, DNC Hires Anti-Bernie Finance Chair ~ They’re at it again. One almost feels sorry for the old Commie ~
The decision by the Democratic National Committee to bring in a man who has questioned whether presidential candidate Bernie Sanders is “dangerous to the future of the Democratic Party” has some questioning whether the party will be able to maintain neutrality in 2020.
Madonna: I refuse to boycott Eurovision ‘to suit someone’s political agenda’ ~ While I generally don’t have much good to say about her, Madonna is to be commended for standing up to the BDS bullies who were trying to intimidate her into cancelling her appearance at a concert in Tel Aviv.
Moonbats Start Purging Classic Movies ~ As the progressives push us closer and closer to totalitarianism, have you noticed they’re becoming increasingly intolerant? ~
Given that there is no sector of society more rigidly controlled by leftist Jacobins than entertainment, it is only a matter of time until the War on History turns its attention from tearing down statues of Robert E. Lee and Christopher Columbus to purge our cultural history of classic movies.
Anything filmed earlier than last week probably violates some aspect of ever-evolving political correctness.
Report: Obama White House Orchestrated Clinton Email Cover Up ~ The mainstreams missed this one ~
According to newly released emails obtained by Judicial Watch, the Obama White House was tracking a December 2012 Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) records request concerning Hillary Clinton’s unsecured, private email server. These new emails prove that the Obama White House knew about the scandal earlier than previously admitted, and attempted to cover it up.
23 Kids and Counting: The Game of Drones ~ As Dov Fischer at the American Spectator points out, the number of Democrat candidates has now reached comedic proportions. So he’s helpfully assigning them numbers for future reference ~
The Democrats’ Presidential field now has reached baseball proportions, with 23 Kids and Counting. It is time for them to wear uniforms with numbers […]
Why Are So Many Mediocrities and Parasitic Drones Running for President?
The answer really is quite simple: The vast majority of them are not running for President. Rather, they are running for book deals, TV news analyst gigs, higher speaking fees, and — if it falls in their laps — a cabinet position. In the case of de Blasio, he just needs an excuse to beat an exit out of the New York City he has run into the ground.
Burkina Faso: 5 leaders killed in 3 months as Islamists continue to target churches ~ Islam marches down the African continent, murdering more infidels along the way (Burkina Faso is in northwest Africa, south of Mali, west of Niger) ~
At least ten more Christians have been killed as a spate of attacks on churches continues in northern Burkina Faso. The ten, who died in two attacks on 12 and 13 May, include another Catholic priest, Siméon Yampa.
On Monday, 13 May, a procession of four Catholics was attacked while they returned a statue of Mary to their church in Singa, 25kms from Kongoussi, reported Fides. The armed men let children go before killing four adults and destroying the statue.
Irish health service approves patients flushing their aborted babies ~ Disgusting. (Although in the UK a few years ago they were actually incinerating fetal remains in ‘waste to energy’ plants) ~
DUBLIN, May 15, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) — The Irish Health Service Executive (HSE) noted on its website five points for mothers to keep in mind after an abortion, including that they’re welcome to flush “down the toilet” the remains of their babies.
“Can’t flush a baby wipe, but can flush a baby. The sick irony. Just horrific. No dignity, only contempt for these children.”
Marie Stopes: the air-brushed heroine of birth control ~ Hadn’t heard of her before, but she sounds like the Margaret Sanger of Britain, where today she’s practically a secular saint ~
‘(I)t is the urgent duty of the community to make parenthood impossible for those whose mental and physical conditions are such that there is a certainty that their offspring must be physically and mentally tainted…’ She wants their sterilisation made immediate and made compulsory otherwise there will be an: ‘…ever increasing stock of degenerate, feeble-minded and unbalanced who will devastate social customs…like the parasite upon a healthy tree.’ (1920)
Her views were not a passing fad. In 1934 she publicly stated that ‘the half-caste’ should be sterilised at birth. In 1956, two years before she died, Marie Stopes asserted that one-third of British men should be forcibly sterilised, ‘starting with the ugly and unfit’.
Psychologist Warns Lawmakers Against Marijuana Legalization ~ (Illinois. Unfortunately it’s too late for us here in Michigan.) With video ~
“Any change in drug policy should reduce drug use, not increase it,” states Dr. Aaron Weiner, licensed clinical psychologist and Director of Addiction Services at Linden Oaks Behavioral Health in Naperville.
Dr. Weiner succinctly details the facts that refute Illinois politicians’ erroneous claims that legal and readily available, high THC concentration marijuana would be “positive for health and community restoration.” He also exposes the real motivation behind liberal legislators’ push for highly addictive, legal weed in Illinois.
Extreme Fine Tuning in Body Cells, Part I and Part II ~ Considering the complexities evidenced in just these two examples, I’m sorry to tell Darwin, but his theory of evolution is utterly impossible ~
(Both examples describe similar systems) involving ion channels or transportation networks (which) likely have their own appropriate mechanisms to maintain tolerances within strict levels. Notice that these are all-or-none situations.
In the ear, without the appropriate springiness of the tip link protein, dynamic control would be lost: all sounds would be heard at the same level, or not at all. In the cellular skeleton, without the appropriate stiffness brought about by acetylation, people would die of cancer or waste away with degenerative diseases.
Think about these awesome wonders in your body that you probably didn’t even know about till now. Aren’t these causes for worship and gratitude?
President Trump invites conservatives whom social media have censored to tell your story ~ This is excellent. Various congress creatures know about the massive social media censorship, but they don’t seem to have the courage or motivation to do anything about it. Maybe the president will (Fellowship-of-the-Minds has an especially Kafkaesque experience to share) ~
President Trump is finally doing something about the toxic practice of social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) and blogging platforms like WordPress censoring, suspending, banning and outright de-platforming conservatives and Christians.
This blog, Fellowship of the Minds (FOTM), has repeatedly been victimized by the social media tech giants in their continuing effort to silence us.
Tech Bias Story ~ No matter your views, if you suspect political bias caused such an action to be taken against you, share your story with President Trump.
