Monday Newsfeed: We’re Living in the 21st Century Pompeii

Posted by Maggie on May 2, 2022 in From the editors

Good Monday morning, fellow Spectators.

Yes, the mentality of our culture is thus at the top of this post. Well, the “influence” factor of our society, at least.
The question is, who or what will be the volcano that ends it all? There are many candidates. Our own current government perching to radically roll over us all on every level. Russia’s neo-Soviet czar rattling their nukes like a feisty toddler and his toys. The gathering multitude of human lava awaiting our illicit administration’s last blast on a remaining border policy that’s been a pinky-finger in the flooding dam. So many volcanos, so little time left as the foundation of our republic is tremoring and quaking in warning of the coming destruction.

CAPTION THIS:

“Not a joke, man, but who the Hell is this guy that keeps high-fiving me?”

Reading a teleprompter and acting lucid for a couple minutes does not erase the last 2 years.
Something is seriously wrong with Joe Biden. https://t.co/XsJZKepoUa

I’m for student loan forgiveness if the colleges are the ones paying for it.
Make colleges and unis accountable for their overpriced degrees that don’t provide an appropriate ROI.
— Carol Roth (@caroljsroth) April 28, 2022

If you’re going to cancel college loan debt, raid the tax-free college endowments to pay for it, not the taxpayers paid their bills on time.
Universities have become little more than hedge funds and REITs that churn students to maintain their tax free educational status.

Just a reminder that the bulk of Biden’s administration are recycles from the Obama administration, at all levels. Also, a reminder that one of the very high-end house purchases of the Obama’s was a house in Washington DC. And Obama has said that Biden is ‘finishing the job’ of his presidency. Maybe Barry’s not directly running the show, but it is undeniable that the cabal is, and not puddin’-head Joe.

Biden official Samantha Power celebrates fertilizer shortages that will force farmers to “hasten transitions” to “natural solutions, like manure and compost.”

Kristine Parks: Biden official says food shortages will push farmers to green energy: ‘Never let a crisis go to waste’: She echoed other Biden officials viewing Russia’s war with Ukraine as opportunity for their energy agenda

“Never let a crisis go to waste,” U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Chief Samantha Power told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on “This Week.”
Speaking of the global consequences of Russia’s war with Ukraine, the Biden official said that fertilizer shortages would provide farmers the opportunity to “hasten” their “transition” from fertilizer to more “natural” resources.
“Fertilizer shortages are real now because Russia is a big exporter of fertilizer. Even though fertilizer is not sanctioned, less fertilizer is coming out of Russia,” she explained. “As a result we’re working with countries to think about natural solutions like manure and compost and this may hasten transitions that would have been in the interest of farmers to make eventually anyway. So never let a crisis go to waste.”
Power added that the administration was still asking Congress to pass more relief. Last week, President Biden requested an additional $33 billion from Congress for military and humanitarian assistance for Ukraine.
“But we really do need this financial support from the Congress to be able to meet emergency food needs, so we don’t see the cascading deadly effects of Russia’s war extend into Africa and beyond,” she said…

Yet another elitist that never held a real back-breaking job to produce something far more of sustenance than her furrowed highbrow opinion of disapproval that the common man/woman multitude are a pain in her collective’s ass.

Matt Margolis: I Wonder Why Hundreds of CDC Employees Aren’t Vaxxed

But while the CDC officially recommends all of us to get jabbed for eternity, as of April 12, there are nearly 400 employees at the CDC who have refused to get vaccinated. According to a report from the Epoch Times, 382 workers at the CDC are unvaccinated. Another nine have only had one dose of Pfizer or Moderna, meaning they’re technically not “fully vaccinated.” These unvaxxed employees account for 3.2% of the CDC’s workforce.
Okay, one could argue that a 96.8% vaccination rate is pretty darn high—and sure it is—but this is the CDC we’re talking about here. These people are (in theory) experts in the field and have access to more information than most … so why doesn’t the CDC have 100% vaccination?…
