Oldest surviving newspaper William Lawrence Sr Omnibit 3-25-19

No Anthony, the oldest surviving newspaper is neither the Maryland Gazette nor the Hartford Courant, but the Post-och Inrikes Tidningar of Stockholm, Sweden which started in 1645. OK, since Jan.1, 2007 it’s been internet only but let’s not rain on the Swede’s parade. The oldest still circulated on dead trees is Haarlems Dagblad of the Netherlands which began in 1656.

GM will invest $300 million in the plant. The reason for the switch given by GM CEO Mary Barra is President Trump’s pledge to end NAFTA and replace it with the still-to-be-ratified U.S.-Mexico-Canada Trade Agreement.

AOC Congresswoman Casting Call

AOC Congresswoman Casting Call — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had been a waitress and barmaid before the residents of New York’s 14th District picked her to be a lawmaker after a well-financed campaign orchestrated by the Justice Democrats.

So what made these this bunch think she had what it took with regard to wisdom and knowledge and such?

They didn’t. They picked her because she was reasonably attractive and personable and would do as she was told.

It was literally a casting call.

Justice Democrats is the creature of Cenk Uygur, a Turkish immigrant who apparently dreams of turning this country into Turkey.

Or some kind of third world paradise anyway.

AOC’s chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, is such a hater of America he wears a shirt featuring the image of Subhas Chandra Bose who was a supporter of the Nazis and just as brutal Japanese in World War II.

America is besieged by traitors from within.

If you have seen this video describing what we are facing please watch.

Hat tip Bunny.

Spring 2019 Starts Now

Spring 2019 Starts Now

Spring 2019 Starts Now –According to our server’s clock it is now 5:58 p.m., EDT, March 20, which means the vernal equinox just happened and Spring 2019 has begun.

Equinox is Latin for “equal night.” Days and nights are approximately equal everywhere and the Sun rises and sets due east and west, explains The Old Farmers Almanac. At the equinoxes, the tilt of Earth relative to the Sun is zero, which means that Earth’s axis neither points toward nor away from the Sun.

Vernal comes from the Latin vernalis which means spring.

Goolag Archipelago For Patrick Moore

Goolag Archipelago For Patrick Moore — Patrick Moore’s environmentalist creds are beyond dispute.

Moore, a Canadian with a Ph.d in forestry, was with Greenpeace at the start. He was president of Greenpeace Foundation in the late 1970s and largely responsible for reorganizing it as Greenpeace International during a time of controversy, crisis and debt.

He is considered one of the founders of the group.

Or had been anyway.

On March 2, Moore blistered “The New Green Deal” plan broached by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the feckless and extremely stupid new congresswoman from New York’s 14th District, calling her a “pompous little twit” and pointing out her bizarre fantasy would bring about “mass death”.

He doubled down a week or so later on Fox & Friends adding that “The whole climate crisis is not only Fake News, it’s Fake Science. There is no climate crisis, there’s weather and climate all around the world, and in fact carbon dioxide is the main building block of all life.”

This quote was tweeted by President Trump on March 12.

Anyway, Moore noticed on March 16 that his photo which had long appeared in Google searches for”Who are the founders of Greenpeace” had been removed.

It had been there two days earlier.

Google’s action was something Moore had expected as he had saved screenshots, which are included below.

Moore did not seem particularly upset with the loss of credit but was alarmed at the implications of “Tech Tyranny.”

As all who love freedom should be.

The wannabe kings and queens of Silicon Valley and Wall Street have no problem disappearing someone who is an impediment to their vision of a harshly regulated progressive paradise.

We suspect they’d have no problem forcing them from their job, stealing their home and even stealing their life if they should feel they could get away with it.

Google is a treasonous enemy. It should be broken up — at the least — as Standard Oil was in 1911. There is no reason for the largest search engine, the largest internet video service (YouTube),the largest mobile operating system (Android) and the most used browser (Chrome) to be under the same roof.

If you don’t feel like waiting for the law, here are some steps you can take yourself.

For Millennials who might miss the allusion in the headline it is to The Gulag Archipelago by  Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn that describes the horrors that existed in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

Note the word “socialist”.

Yes children, “the power of the collective through community” means slavery and misery for you and those you care about.
