Lead: White Refugees?

A group of refugees was welcomed to the United States on Monday by the State Department and the media is upset that they are white people from South Africa.

The media’s main beef is that these people were deemed victims of racial discrimination in their home country and the media has a hard time admitting that white people can face discrimination. They refute that their lives are that hard. They claim that they are skipping the line over other groups, even though it was a small group of only 59 people who applied when the President opened up refugee status to farmers so there is no proof that they took anyone else’s spot.

MSNBC put the word “refugees” in quotes, denying that this group ever faced any danger at all. CNN says that South Africa has a good court and justice system that could have protected them. Lol. They also say that they are of German descent and Afrikaners are not. They are of Dutch descent and have had claim to their lands for as long as, if not longer, than many Black tribes which were themselves colonisers.

To be fair, Blacks are also at a high risk of violence in South Africa. The violence and corruption is horrible for everyone. We should open this same program with the burden of proof to all skin color and not be scandalized when they show up.

Also, I’m so confused because this is the same media that celebrated Ukrainian refugees skipping the refugee line because they were white.

Democrats Eat Their Own

The Democrats knocked down one of their party’s hopefuls on Monday, voting to void activist David Hogg’s election to vice chair of the party.

Hogg is a school shooting survivor and one of the more promising Democrats. He won a leadership role in the DNC but unfortunately so did two other men. Both the DNC and RNC have gender balance provisions so the wins were disqualified. They will now move to a runoff election.

This was explained by Nancy Pelosi’s daughter Christine Pelosi who is a member of the credentials committee.

It does seem that establishment Democrats are intimidated by Hogg. He is young and well spoken and – his greatest sin so far – is that he refused to sign a pledge calling for DNC officers to stay neutral in primaries.

How much do you want to bet that they Bernie Sanders him?

FDA Warns About Chikungunya Vaccine

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning adults over 60 not to get the chikungunya vaccine after two patients died.

What is chikungunya virus? It is a mosquito-borne virus much like Zika and dengue, more common in tropical areas.

The FDA reports that it found at least “17 serious adverse events, including two that resulted in death, in individuals 62 through 89 years of age” from the vaccine brandnamed IXCHIQ.

The vaccine contains the chikungunya virus so the people who had the vaccine died from the symptoms of the very virus they were trying NOT to get.

The vaccine was clinically trialed on 3,500 people over the age of 18 but if participants reacted this poorly, it wasn’t disclosed to the public.

News By The Numbers

$47.6 million. That is how much this painting by Dutch modernist Piet Mondrian sold for at auction on Monday.

1.08%. That was the odds that the Dallas Mavericks would win the NBA draft but…never tell me the odds. They did win and jumped 10 spots to get the top pick.

7%. That is the rate the IRS announced it will charge for for tax overpayments and underpayments in the calendar quarter beginning July 1. That is unchanged from last year.

Who downed MH17?

The Netherlands and Australia have asked the Council of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to force Russia to cooperate with its investigation of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 which was shot down in July of 2014.

This was the flight that was shot down over Eastern Ukraine, killing 298 people. In 2022, the court found three people guilty and sentenced them in absentia to life imprisonment. They have not been detained or extradited because Russia refutes the court’s legitimacy.

Russia did participate in this investigation until June of 2024 when the Kremlin decided that the investigation was politically motivated. Russia accused the ICAO of ignoring evidence and accused Ukraine of continuing the war in the region in 2014, which they did in violation of the Minsk Accords.

Also, the ICAO ruling on guilt was not really a trial. It was a voting session by United Nations member states.

The investigation was led by representatives from Australia, Belgium, Malaysia, the Netherlands and Ukraine. Russia was not allowed representatives to assist.
