Of course they do!  We know it’s true because they say so, and they’re the most ethical administration in history.  They wouldn’t lie about a thing like that.  How, gentle readers, could a multi-billion dollar illegal drug enterprise–something in great demand–possibly go bankrupt?  Easy: let government run it:

California’s effort to save its floundering cannabis industry brings to mind an adage from Ronald Reagan (himself a major proponent of the War on Drugs) on the misguided (and sometimes comical) efforts to regulate the economy.

‘Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases,’ Reagan once quipped. ‘If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.’

As ridiculous as this sounds, this is precisely what California has done.

By all means, take the link, where you’ll discover that a combination of over regulation and oppressive taxation has actually made selling legal pot unprofitable.  California has actually made the Black Market more profitable, because legal pot is available, but too expensive.  All of the California bureaucrat’s revenue projections turned out to be false.  Perhaps they were smoking the product?

Still not convinced our military is going to hell in a handbasket?  You will be after reading this:

Nellis Air Force Base and the 99th Air Base Wing hosted its first-ever drag show Thursday, June 17, at the Nellis Club. The event was sponsored by a private organization and provided an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the history and significance of drag performance art within the LGBT+ community.

What could possibly be more important to men and women learning how best to kill the enemies of our nation?  Here’s what the pajama boys and sissy girls in charge of Nellis AFB see as a priority:

Ensuring our ranks reflect and are inclusive of the American people is essential to the morale, cohesion, and readiness of the military. Nellis Air Force Base is committed to providing and championing an environment that is characterized by equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion.

What about an environment characterized by such fearsome warriors no enemy would think about pissing us off?  Of course not!  Real military readiness, morale and unit cohesion is characterized by guys outrageously dressed as twerking women.  Perhaps the Air Force is planning to include drag queens?  I can hardly wait to see the uniform proposals.

Nellis Air Force Base is home to the service’s Warfare Center where Air Force pilots undergo the most demanding advanced air combat training in the country. ‘The crews do not come to learn how to fly, but instead how to be the best combat aviators in the world,’ the base website said.

Oh.  Well then of course drag queen shows are essential to excellence in diverse and inclusive combat aviation.

And speaking of diverse and inclusive, those merry pranksters at the Wuhan Bat Institute of Virology have pretty much included all of mankind in their hijinks, so of course, they deserve the Nobel Prize:

The Chinese Communists are nothing if not brazen in furthering their propaganda. While much of the rest of the world is screaming at them to come clean about what went on at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in late 2019 and early 2020, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) nominated the lab for a Nobel Prize in medicine.

Why not?  If Al Gore can get it for yammering endlessly about global warming, and Barack Obama can get it for being Barack Obama, shouldn’t people who killed millions get one too?  I’m sure Gropin’ Joe will put in a good word with the Nobel Committee…

Did you know not only our solar system, but the galaxy, even the universe are RAAAAAACIST!!!?  It’s true, because it’s SCIENCE (and comparative literature), and you don’t want to be a racist science denier, do you?  Thought not.  Heather MacDonald at City Journal explains:

Physicists at MIT and SUNY Stony Brook recently announced findings that the total surface area of two black holes was maintained after the two entities merged. While this research was a welcome confirmation of both Stephen Hawking’s work and the theory of general relativity, it failed to address a crucial matter: what were its racial implications?

That is a lacuna that an astronomy course at Cornell University aims to prevent. ‘Black Holes: Race and the Cosmos’ asks the question, ‘Is there a connection between the cosmos and the idea of racial blackness?’ Anyone familiar with academia’s racial monomania knows the answer: of course there is! Though ‘conventional wisdom,” according to the catalog description of “Black Holes: Race and the Cosmos,’ holds that the ‘black’ in black holes has nothing to do with race,’ astronomy professor Nicholas Battaglia and comparative literature professor Parisa Vaziri know better.

And who would possibly know more about the cosmos and the nature of everything than a “comparative literature professor?

Battaglia and Vaziri puncture the ‘conventional wisdom’ by drawing on theorists such as Emory University English professor Michelle Wright. Wright’s book, The Physics of Blackness: Beyond the Middle Passage Epistemology, invokes ‘Newton’s laws of motion and gravity’ and ‘theoretical particle physics’ to ‘subvert racist assumptions about Blackness.’ The Cornell course also studies music by Sun Ra and Outkast to ‘conjure blackness through cosmological themes.’

See?!  All those “black” holes and “dark” matter are white supremacist plots!  Unless we can figure out how to change the very nature of the universe, we’ll never shed our systemic racism!  Hmmm.  One might almost think that’s just what they want…

And speaking of discriminatory plots…

Rep. Rashida Tlaib Tweets ‘Freedom of Speech Doesn’t Exist for Muslim Women in Congress’ to her 1.4 Million Followers

Someone needs to send this Muslim woman in Congress a dictionary with a single entry: “irony.”

Among the things Donald Trump accomplished was to make insulin and Epipens much more affordable.  Obviously, such cruel, anti-democratic and non-woke life-saving oppression cannot be allowed to stand:

The White House this week gave President Biden the greenlight to move forward with removing a Trump-era health care policy designed to bring down the price of insulin.

Biden’s bid to retract the rule was approved on Monday, as reported by Politico, with the expectation that the Department of Health and Human Services could publish the retraction within the coming days.

The measure, signed off on under the previous administration in December, aimed to require some 340B community health centers to deliver savings to low-income patients for insulin and epinephrine in a bid to bring down unaffordable prices.

Wait a minute.  The White House gave Biden the green light?  Isn’t the White House synonymous with its occupant and his policies?  So Biden is giving Biden the green light?  Does Biden know he’s done that?  And does Biden know he’s done this?

President Joe Biden’s administration agreed Thursday to give nearly $1 billion in federal money back to California that President Donald Trump rescinded in 2019 after Governor Gavin Newsom canceled the state’s high-speed rail project.

That would be the high-speed rail to nowhere project that will likely never be finished, and even it if is, will be a black hole for taxpayer dollars forevermore?  Ooops.  Forgot “black hole” is racist.  Not sorry.  And does Gropin’ Joe have any idea he’s done this?

Well of course.  Nothing says diversity, inclusion and respect for democracy and human rights like supporting illegal alien murderers and rapists and ignoring their victims!  And speaking of respect for the United States:

CNN’s Don Lemon says he doesn’t know whether the United States views black people as fully human.

Lemon argued black and white people are ‘living in two different realities,’ saying former President Donald Trump was ‘the necessary wake-up for America to realize just how racist it is.’

‘I don’t think America has seen enough people like me. I don’t think America intimately knows enough people like me. I would love America to see black people, especially black gay men, as, and I hate this word, normal, and as human beings, and as part of the culture. … I don’t know if America sees black people and especially black gay men as fully human, and as deserving of the American dream,’ he told the Washington Post.

I suspect America has seen more than enough people like him; his premise is racist lunacy.  The problem is Lemon is an arrogant asshat and idiot.  And speaking of arrogant asshats and idiots:

BMX Freestyle rider Chelsea Wolfe, who qualified as an alternate to represent the U.S. at this year’s summer Olympics in Tokyo, said last year that her goal was to win an Olympic medal ‘so I can burn a US flag on the podium.’

‘My goal is to win the Olympics so I can burn a US flag on the podium. This is what they focus on during a pandemic. Hurting trans children,’ Wolfe wrote on Facebook on March 25, 2020, along with a link to a PinkNews story about the Trump administration’s stance on transgender girls in female athletics.

Oh yeah.  That’ll really sway Normal Americans to the trans cause.  They just love people who burn the American flag at the Olympics, as much as they love faux adults riding children’s bikes (please save the outraged comments about how cool and manly riding children’s bikes is for BMX magazines and websites).  Pity poor Chelsea:

‘I searched for so long trying to find out if there had ever been a professional trans bmx rider to show me that who I am would be okay and unfortunately I found no one,’ Wolfe wrote on Instagram on June 12.

Gee, maybe that’s because there are very few trans people in general, and obviously no trans BMX riders and the world isn’t going to adapt to you and do whatever you want? And of course, the Biden/Harris/Whoever Administration– Joe Biden, Temporary President–is determined people like Wolfe get to burn the flag, and that trans children will actually be harmed:

The United States has a significant interest in ensuring that all students, including students who are transgender, can participate in an educational environment free of unlawful discrimination and that the proper legal standards are applied to claims under Title IX and the Equal Protection Clause,’ the DOJ claims in a ‘statement of interest’ supporting a challenge to the West Virginia law protecting women’s sports, the Daily Mail reported.

‘A state law that limits or denies a particular class of people’s ability to participate in public, federally funded educational programs and activities solely because their gender identity does not match their sex assigned at birth violates both Title IX and the Equal Protection Clause,’ the DOJ argues.

The DOJ filed a similar brief in Arkansas, arguing that it is unconstitutional for that state to ban experimental transgender ‘treatments’ for minors.

Let me see if I understand this: somewhere in the emanations of penumbras of the Constitution and federal law, it’s unconstitutional for women to expect fairness and sanity in sports, and chemical castration and surgical mutilation of children is a constitutionally protected right, enforceable on everyone?

And if you harbored any delusions there was a molecule of sanity left in Portland, read this PR release that recently appeared in the Seattle Times:

“You can be yourself here.”  Yeah, unless “being yourself” means being a sane, law-abiding, normal American.  I’m just wondering: who, besides socialists, communists, anarchists, BLM racists, Antifa arsonists, sociopaths, psychopaths and lunatics in general would be tempted, by this kind of appeal, to visit Portland?

Too stupid to survive…
