dishonest language clouds thinking
Honest language. From: Eric Peters Autos. It is silly to refer to the party that imposed the choice of party insiders on the party as the Democrat Party. It is akin to referring to what people are forced to pay into Social Security as a “contribution.”
🤥 The staggering death toll of scientific lies. From: Kelsey Piper/Vox. Should it be illegal?
The media's reaction to Kamala Harris' speech and the DNC was both surprising and vomit-inducing. Matt Vespa/Townhall. Rachel Maddow: “You are going to remember where you were on this night. This was an inflection point in history."
⭐️ Votes for handouts. From: MN Gordon/Economic Prism. The case for Kamala Harris.
Yes, Kamala's price controls lead to socialism. From: David Harsanyi/Creators. There isn't a scintilla of evidence that "price gouging" — a conveniently elastic term, to begin with — exists.

🚩 Albuquerque's police chief says cops have a 5th Amendment right to leave their body cameras off. From: Jacob Sullum/Reason. Do cops have a constitutional right to refrain from recording their interactions with the public whenever that evidence could be used against them?
Back to barbarism. From: Sheldon Richman/Libertarian Institute. Has Kamala Harris inadvertently done free-market advocates a favor? Let's not get too hopeful, but maybe.
🤔 Is there nothing the BBC won’t blame on climate change? From: Andrew Montford/Spiked. The state broadcaster has swapped factual journalism for breathless eco-activism.
US natural gas is America's clean energy standard. From: Jason Hayes & Timothy G. Nash/Real Clear Wire. America’s increasing population will need more electricity in the future.
😮 Girl to be fined for defending herself against would-be rapist? Welcome to Europe! From: Eric Utter/American Thinker. Care to riot, vandalize statues and other cultural icons, and burn down parts of major Western cities? Rape — or gang rape — our young girls?
