Interestingly, Dr. Michael Fine is against non-vaccination shaming, mainly because he isn’t very confident in the vaccines we have against COVID. One gets the impression, however, that he makes that concession in order to promote his real goal: If everyone stops going to bars and restaurants TODAY, and stops shopping TODAY, we’ll see a drop…
One can’t fault individuals for making the best career decisions for themselves at each step, and we should assume that every professional is doing the best he or she can to do a job well and honestly in the moment. Still, every time a Rhode Island journalist proves that a job in government communications is…
In some alternative reality, the Western world is having an intelligent, informed, science-based discussion about biology and the appropriate measures to take against COVID-19. In that world, an article like this, by Joseph Mercola in the Epoch Times, isn’t limited to a relatively unknown publication but is being widely discussed on all forms of major…
This isn’t exactly a difficult political opportunity to identify, but it’s fun to wonder whether somebody on Seth Magaziner’s campaign team listened to my weekly segment with John DePetro, yesterday: We must address the dangerous hospital staffing shortage that has created a state of crisis in emergency rooms and other care delivery facilities across the…
The question derives from New Neo suggesting that thinking installing a figurehead president would simply leave the country to run itself was “hubris squared.” Is that hubres? Our elites stoked a sense of panic to seize control, with this underlying reality: Whether or not you think Biden won fair and square in 2020 or because of…

They found that DEI staff “tweeted, retweeted, or liked almost…
In separate incidents, Woonsocket arrested two 12 year olds. The photo accompanying Lauren Clem’s Valley Breeze article is worth a glance. It shows a child being led away in handcuffs by a much larger police officer while another carries his backpack. One of the children (although I don’t know whether it was this one) involved a…
The musical innovations must have been compelling at the time, but the arrangements are so narrative, I feel like I’m listening to a Bugs Bunny soundtrack or something.
What can one say? John’s questions are exactly on point, but nobody is surprised about what’s going on: Why is an unelected official making all the Covid decisions? Governor Dan McKee seems content to allow Dr. Nicole Alexander Scott to make all Covid decisions including decisions that are different than Massachusetts. Why is testing so…
This is worth remembering, especially because so many people charged with keeping an eye on things want to forget it: We found out about the 14,000 abandoned Americans almost two months ago, of whom the State Department only shows 900 exfiltrated thus far. We also knew that the US had abandoned tens of thousands of…
