Sources close to and within the intelligence community tell Spectator author Cockburn that Ashli Babbitt was actually shot by then vice-president Mike Pence’s protective detail. The VP’s detail is provided by the US Secret Service, not the Capitol Police. One person asserted to Cockburn that this is “an open secret” in the intelligence community.
Law enforcement sources suggested that the Capitol Police Department and Department of Justice have publicly identified the shooter as a Capitol Police officer in order to protect the reputation of the Secret Service. Cockburn also wonders if this isn’t an attempt to protect Pence from further anger or threats from capitol rioters who wanted him to refuse to certify the results of the election on January 6.

I'm behind & trying to catch up, perhaps someone else has discussed this but I doubt it.
I have had this covid thought for awhile and this thread seems a good place to put it out there. We all know the death rate is complete BS, and we all know about comorbidities and "dying of" vs "dying with" covid. However, I think this argument loses alot of people in the weeds. Also, many of those comorbidities are covid related, or could be. Certainly pneumonia and blood clots, for example, are common comorbidities that are often related to the person having covid. Many of the listed comorbidities are not covid related, but again...getting in the weeds.
I say all that to say, my newest argument against the death rate is something like this. Someone mentions the survival rate for their age being, say 98%. I reply, yeah but it is actually much higher than 98%. That number is factoring in all the deaths since last spring(2020), when we were horribly mistreating people, and generally the outcomes were much worse than they are now. Just at the couple of hospitals I deal with at work, last summer we were full of covid patients, and almost out of vents. Now we almost never admit anyone with covid. I bet if you took even the BS cdc numbers, from just 2021, the rates would be right in line with the seasonal flu.

Blazing Saddles is one of the GOAT comedies, and everyone saying it couldn't get made is correct, and tells you so much about the times we live in. Everyone looking to be offended...
You are right that it mostly made fun of white people, hilariously so. One of me & my girlfriend's favorite shows is like this. Another Period ran for 3 seasons on Comedy Central. It was about a rich, aristocratic family in Newport, RI around 1900. We find it hysterical because of the humor they get away with, being that they are making fun of white people 120 years ago. So many racist, sexist, incest jokes. My Avatar is one of the crazy servants from that show.

Speak nicely about grey haired pony tail men. Only mine isn't grey yet.
In other baseball news, I hate the pitch clock and the plate umpire sucked with his calls and attitude.
