Governor Cuomo recently announced that he wants to treat gun violence "like a public health issue," adding, "we want to do with gun violence what we just did with COVID."
"Check on your grandparents, there’s a killer on the loose," Woods reacted, referring to how Cuomo’s administration handled the state’s nursing homes during the Wuhan virus pandemic.
Woods was not the only one to slam the New York governor over his claim that he will take on gun violence in the same manner he took on the coronavirus.
"Kill more people, lie about the death toll and then write a book about it?" tweeted Fox News meteorologist Janice Dean, whose husband lost both of his parents — who were living in long-term care facilities — to the coronavirus last March and April. Several more excellent jabs at Sonny at the link.

[American Thinker] Before I get to the bad news, let me start with some good news. Christopher F. Rufo tweets that the revulsion against Critical Race Theory being taught in schools is showing results. Nine states have already banned it: Arizona, Texas, Tennessee, Florida, Arkansas, Oklahoma, New Hampshire, Iowa, and Idaho. As more people realize this effort to divide us into what Scott Adams calls "losers and assholes" I expect we will see more states banning the teaching of this perfidious, noxious, baseless nonsense. On the other hand, there seems no backing off of it in the military, where it can do nothing but weaken our defense capabilities.
Other good news is that courts are rejecting efforts to scrap voter reform. Voter Reform is winning, and it’s what the voters want:
Scrolling down to the 'bad news.'
The bad news this week, is that the media is still feeding us baloney, the surveillance state is growing and we now have -- with judicial acquiescence -- a group of political prisoners in D.C. and a lunatic FBI dragnet against everyone who was anywhere near the Capitol on January 6.

Before returning to Afghanistan in 2002 he was a scholar of political science and anthropology. He worked at the World Bank working on international development assistance. As Finance Minister of Afghanistan between July 2002 and December 2004, he led Afghanistan's attempted economic recovery until the Karzais stole all the money... met with US President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect hacked up by the World's Greatest Deliberative Body.... in Washington on June 25, 2021 in a bid to convince him and the US Administration to reinforce the classic politico-military failure despite guzzling billions of dollars of American taxpayers’ money for a long time without delivering positively on anything. Ashraf Ghani’s last ditch effort was yet again based on faulty assumptions and a request for more economic and military support with US Air Force and drone attacks on the fast winning Afghan Taliban

[Townhall/Bongino] The message was clear, we are all suffering so anyone who complains just needs to suck it up and take the medicine the federal and state governments were prescribing like good little boys and girls.
But were we really "all in it together?" United States Labor Department Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows that we weren’t.
While the private sector lost 22 million jobs from February 2020 to April 2020, and state and local government cut about 1.6 million jobs in response to the pandemic, one group of people prospered during the pandemic — the federal government workforce. The federal workforce actually grew slightly during the pandemic never dipping below the 2.63 million employed at the employment high water mark of the Trump administration and indeed our nation’s history in February 2020.
That’s right, the very people who were so earnestly leading the "we’re all in it together" chant, were not in it at all. And quite frankly, were major beneficiaries of the economic shutdown. Well, dip me in gravy! But wait! There's more!
And of course there is that "famous" federal bureaucrat work ethic. Since the pandemic, a June 10, 2021 memo from the federal OMB and the federal Office of Personnel Management reports that 60% of the federal workforce is telecommuting, while praising the "many thousands of Federal employees with responsibilities that could not be performed remotely have continued to undertake mission-critical duties at their workplaces and on the frontlines of the national response, day-in and day-out through the pandemic." Heroes, all. Raises and bonuses all around.
Anyone who has been in Washington, D.C. in the past few months knows that the once busy, bustling downtown remains a virtual ghost town as the hundreds of thousands who would normally inhabit the dozens of federal buildings in the city remain at home, presumably working.
State and local governments, which cannot just print money to pay employees, cut payroll positions pretty aggressively, as the federal government just rolled along as if nothing was happening — employees unaffected with the exception that they did not have to go into the office. So what does it mean?
The hidden effect of this perverse situation was that the very federal government bureaucrats making recommendations about the balancing act between the economic and public health needs of the nation never felt the economic consequences of their decisions. They had no skin in the game. Science!

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
