2) Court holds that the City of Philadelphia violated the 1st Amendment by trying to make a Catholic charity certify same-sex parents as foster couples.

As we await the results of the John Durham investigation, remember - we've seen John Durham and Robert Mueller cross paths before.

When Durham uncovered how the FBI - including Director Hoover - framed 4 men for murder.

And when Mueller's FBI disputed the innocence of the men the FBI framed.

On that curious NSA "denial" of targeting Tucker Carlson:

The NSA, while stating that Tucker “has never been an intelligence target,” does not categorically deny having (or reviewing) his electronic communications.

Here are the newly unsealed documents in the Ghislaine Maxwell case. (There's nothing groundbreaking, but for those who like to look at the actual documents.)

Something we'll be watching for -

There is an ongoing case against Saudi Arabia for its participation in 9/11. Some records (a court order) will hopefully be unsealed in the coming weeks.

This looks like confirmation of Tucker's allegations that the NSA intercepted his communications.

It would be Biden administration officials who unmasked Tucker and leaked it to the press (starting this whole chain of events).

Michael Avanatti has been sentenced to 30 months in prison for trying to extort Nike.

The Judge: "Mr. Avenatti's conduct was outrageous. He hijacked his client's claims, and he used those claims to further his own agenda."

On the latest Fusion GPS/Alfa Bank developments we posted:

Fusion GPS attorney is risking sanctions to try to settle the case with Alfa Bank. Why the desperation?

It could have to do with the "500 critically important documents" Alfa Bank demands to see - including internal Fusion correspondence.

Expansion of the Supreme Court is really a threat against "conservatives" on the Court: stay in line or there will be changes.

Does this explain Justice Kavanaugh and Barrett's lack of fortitude?

This isn't about the "truth."

It is about seizing power over what can be said.

“The only way to win at this scheme is not to play; to go on the attack; to continually point out how intensely political the motives are, then start applying massive amounts of ridicule upon the House Democrats.”

A deeper dive into the history of the CDC:

After the Vietnam War, tens of thousands of Veterans and their children reported diseases and birth defects caused by Agent Orange.

The CDC responded by twisting the science on Agent Orange to deny their benefits.

To follow friend BAP:

Hello frends. Just saw about Twatter suspension. I'm looking into it. But even if I can get account back, you see it is unstable situation there. Therefore I will be poasting on here for a bit, at least until situation is resolved. I will poast here regularly from now on.

If I can provide context on current developments -

NYC mandates vaccines for restaurants. The press calls for banning the unvaccinated for travel and blames the unvaccinated for our current situation.

The unvaccinated have become the scapegoat.

To paraphrase Rene Girard, their accusations make it possible to blame disasters on people who are blameless.
