Month: February 2023

As is my usual habit on Sunday, I tell a story of a true hero, someone we can all admire.

From Good News Network:

On Jan 31, when a Massachusetts woman lost consciousness at the wheel of her car on the highway, she can thank her lucky stars she did it in view of Adolfo Molina.

The tall and powerful Dominican sprinted across a 4-lane highway in the snow to try and stop her car as it brushed against the guardrails while continuing to accelerate on the shoulder of the road.

A nearby driver recorded the rescue attempt and put it up on TikTok where the images of Molina trying to slow the car by grabbing the door handles went viral.

“I was surprised [at first] but at the end of the day I wasn’t, because he’s a helpful person,” his wife Maytee Pena remarked to CBS Boston. “Something in his mind just said ‘go help’ so he got out of the car and did what he needed to do, it was like a sign of God. God sent him to do that mission.”

At one point another person came to give Molina a hand, and together they tried to use sticks to stop the still-moving car which was beginning to move back towards the highway. They tried to push it into the guardrails to at least slow it down.

The video doesn’t include the eventual end of the pursuit when her car hit a divider and stopped. State police later revealed the driver was a 57-year-old woman from New Hampshire who had indeed lost consciousness for unknown reasons. She was transferred to a nearby hospital.

Molina, who was honored for his heroism at the Dominican consulate in Boston, hopes to be able to meet her someday.

ALDOFO MOLINA IS A TRUE HERO FROM THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.

This was written two years and still holds true today.

Why ?  

Here in California we are use to practices that hurt the poorest among us. For the most part these are initiated and subsequently pushed by the liberal Sacramento politicians here in our state. But why?

First, Increasing the minimum wage.

From Forbes, 2017:

The restaurant industry is the most intensive user of of minimum wage labour. A useful, although not wholly accurate, rule of thumb is that 50% of those making minimum wage are in restaurants, and that 50% of those working in restaurants are on minimum wage. So, whatever the employment effects of a minimum wage rise are they’re going to show up in the restaurant industry. Meaning that if w want to study the minimum wage effects on employment then restaurants are a great place to go looking.

The evidence suggests that higher minimum wages increase overall exit

rates for restaurants. However, lower quality restaurants, which are already closer to the margin of exit, because of very slim profit margins, are disproportionately impacted by increases to the minimum wage. Estimates suggest that a one dollar increase in the minimum wage leads to a 14 percent increase in the likelihood of exit for a 3.5-star restaurant (which is the median rating), but has no discernible impact for a 5-star restaurant (on a 1 to 5 star scale).

In other words not only are those that work medium rated restaurants more likely to lose their jobs, but restaurants in the less affluent neighborhoods that are frequented by less affluent patrons are also more likely to disappear. Furthermore the effect of Covid on restaurant closings is only going to aggravate this situation. 

Second, raising the gas tax.

Without question here in California the poorest among us cannot work from home, and so they are the most likely ones that have to commute to their workplace. On a national level the scuttlebutt is that there is proposal in the works to institute a “gas tax” based on miles driven, ergo the main effect of this would be on those who must commute longer distances because they cannot live in the more affluent city areas where their jobs are.

Third, raising the price of gas even before a tax kicks in.

Doing things like closing pipelines will inevitably cause the price of gasoline to go up. Surprise, surprise it is already happening! Likewise the fracking moratorium on federal lands will only increase the cost of heating homes in the next year or so. Who will suffer the most from this? Predictably, the poorest among us for a variety of different reasons.

Why do Democrats promote policies that are seemingly intended to hurt those who can least likely afford them?

Next the Dems will be going after the Costco $5.00 chicken.

What does the title of this piece mean, and what does it imply?

The phrase ‘Houston we have a problem’ literally means that the speaker has a problem with something or a situation. 

A few days ago I wrote a piece entitled, “It just keeps getting more bizarre.” The gist of this essay had to do with Damar Hamlin’s sudden death on Monday Night Football, and why all of the secrecy surrounding what the final diagnosis is. Initially, because of all the hush-hush, I suspected that this episode was related to vaccine induced myocarditis and a potential NFL cover-up, as years ago the NFL had taken a hard-ass, somewhat vindictive approach to the so-called “anti-vaccers.” Now the NFL is essentially saying, “Houston, we’ve got a problem?”

To heighten my suspicions, on the same day as my piece, a 25 y/o Belgian soccer player died suddenly on the soccer field during a game. In addition, I had my recent piece, ‘it just keeps getting more bizarre,’ reviewed by three different cardiologists, who all agreed that my “cardiac logic” was spot on, and thus, I continue to feel very comfortable with my speculative theory concerning Damar Hamlin. 

Let’s assume that my thinking is indeed correct. After thinking more about it, then certainly “Houston has a problem,” … but a different problem, and potentially a humongous problem. We know that the Covid vaccine can cause myocarditis, especially in young males. If the NFL actually came out and admitted that Damar Hamlin’s sudden death episode was related to vaccine induced myocarditis, a general national panic could ensue. Consider how many young males fit into this category, as the vaccine was mandated across the board in high schools and colleges in addition to professional sport’s teams. 

Concerning the Damar Hamlin situation, giving the benefit of the doubt to the treating physicians, presumably in conjunction with input from the NFL, could it be that their silence is designed to avoid panic? 

In addition, rumor has that the NFL Players Association is considering having the players screened for myocarditis. If that is so, then a total mess would follow. If players refused the screening test, what would happen to them? Would they be designated as “anti-screeners,” and treated similarly to the  previous “anti-vaxers?” If a screening test were to be positive on an individual player, would that player’s career be over? 

Hmmm! … Yes, indeed, “Houston, we have a problem!”

There is at least one question that needs to be answered about Terry Newsome, a Chicago area dad who found himself placed on a flight watchlist by federal law enforcement.

From the Epoch Times:

On Dec. 16, 2022, he and his family attempted to board a plane en route to Turning Point USA’s “America Fest” convention in Phoenix, Arizona.

Newsome, who travels a great deal for work, was shocked to learn that he had been placed on a watchlist and had to get substantially more screening before being allowed to board, causing him to miss his original flight.

Initially, Newsome was told that he had been placed on the list by the FBI. On his return journey from Phoenix, he was informed that the classification originated from the Department of Justice (DOJ).

Despite having been a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) pre-check-approved flier for over a decade, upon his family’s arrival at O’Hare International Airport, Newsome learned about the new designation.

It was only later that Newsome learned he had been given the dreaded “quad-S” designation on his ticket, an acronym standing for Secondary Security Screening Selection (SSSS).

Compared to the normal security guidelines for boarding, those with boarding passes marked SSSS must get far more screening.

Following this experience, Newsome sent a Freedom of Information (FOIA) request to the FBI, seeking more information about his newly discovered status as an alleged terror risk.

The FBI refused to discuss details with Newsome.

In the letter he received replying to his request, the FBI wrote in part: “The U.S. Government can neither confirm nor deny whether a particular person is on any terrorist watch list.”

Why would either the FBI or the DOJ put a typical family man from Downer’s Grove, Illinois on such a terror watch list? It appears that there are two possibilities, and my question is “which is worse?”

In July 2021, Newsome attended his first school board meeting at Downers Grove’s Community High School (District 99). Newsome immediately began a crusade on several hot-button topics, ranging from mask mandates to critical race theory, becoming the unofficial spokesman for several concerned mothers who were more hesitant to speak out.

Newsome’s most controversial activism came with his opposition to the book “Gender Queer” by Mia Kobabe, a book containing sexually explicit images that teaches children about oral sex and controversial notions of gender identity.

After Newsome began speaking out against the book and the left-wing ideology that had inundated his children’s schools, he began facing attacks from all corners, ranging from threats by Antifa to opposition by Rep. Sean Casten (D-Ill.).

So perhaps he was put on this no-fly list because he spoke out at school board meetings. If this is the reason for his being placed in a Quad S category, it is truly amazing and despicable as our U.S. Attorney General, Merrick Garland guaranteed that there would be no retaliation against anyone who spoke up at school board meetings.

But there is another possibility. 

Newsome was present at the Jan. 6, 2021, “Stop the Steal” rally.

Newsome said his only reason for attending the rally was to hear President Donald Trump speak and to ensure people were safe.

“I went to January 6, with my friend, a retired police officer,” Newsome said. According to Newsome, the FBI previously investigated his friend who attended the event, a retired Cook County police officer, and had cleared him of any wrongdoing.

Newsome said he had left by the time order broke down at the rally, which he vindicated by providing time-stamped photos. Newsome’s photos and time stamps from that day show that he did not trespass on Capitol grounds and was gone before the Capitol breach began.

So here we have it. Two possibilities as to why he was placed on a flight watch list … either he was viewed as a school board meeting rabble-rouser, or he was viewed as a Trump supporter by the FBI/DOJ.

In a supposed free country with a First Amendment, which is worse?

As many of us recall the Covid vaccine was rolled out in mid-November, 2020, and was initially made available to us common folk in February, 2021.

A lot  of what follows is from a piece by Jeffrey A. Tucker in the Epoch Times:

“On Nov. 13, 2020, just as the vaccine was being rolled out the World Health Organization (WHO) made a hugely significant change to its website.

It pertained to the section on herd immunity—the concept theorizing how a new pathogen goes from pandemic to endemic, from socially disruptive to manageable. It is about how a society gets back to normal. Previously the website said it happens with immunity upgrades through exposure plus vaccines.

On this day, the WHO changed its website. The science had not changed. But the body presuming to guard and govern world health changed anyway. The website suddenly struck out natural immunity and even put it down. The new text said: “Herd immunity is achieved by protecting people from a virus, not exposing them to it.”

Back in the day when I was in med school, I was initially leaning toward being a pediatrician. However after a few pediatric rotations, I decided not to become a pediatrician because during those months I was constantly sick with one cold after another. No way could I go through the rest of my life being consistently sick. How could pediatricians do it? They exposed to sick kids with viral runny noses and coughs all the time? … the answer is “natural immunity.” Basically, natural immunity is that protection that an individual develops against a virus after that individual has already had that particular virus.

In other words, practicing pediatricians are not constantly sick, because they develop a natural immunity to certain viruses through exposure to those viruses. For many years since med school, I have been aware of the concept of natural immunity. The question is why were all of the so-called experts, Dr. Fauci, the CDC, the WHO, etcetera not aware of this. As many of my regular readers are cognizant, I have been steadfastly questioning why Dr. Fauci, the CDC, the WHO, etcetera have never alluded to natural immunity. 

To me the answer to this relatively easy question is basically simple … either they were not aware of the concept of natural immunity … balderdash!

or

they purposely avoided the topic of natural immunity … but why?

More from Jeffrey Tucker:

“On 11/13/20, the WHO announced that now scientists and their potions would protect the whole of humanity from everything! Astounding. And unbearably false. It just so happened that this grand reveal happened just as COVID vaccines were about to hit the market.

The month before the WHO came out with its preposterous claim, British medical journal, The Lancet had more-or-less trumpeted the same blather. The Memorandum in question was supposed to be a response to the Great Barrington Declaration. They called it the John Snow Memo. Today it is nothing if not embarrassing.

Of course the evidence rolled in from all over the world over the coming months that natural immunity to this pathogen works exactly as one would expect. It is robust and broad and lasting.”

So was this avoidance by “experts” to the possibility of natural immunity with Covid due to their incompetence or to some other more devious reason? I have my opinion … what’s yours?

Jeffrey Tucker closes his piece with:

“Will you ever regain your trust in public health? You should not, not until there is full accountability and open admissions of wrongdoing.”

The Super Bowl has been completed and thus the football season is now completed for this year. Even though a controversial call from a zebra played a significant role in possibly determining the outcome  of this season’s final game, it was a great season. It was an especially great season for Damar Hamlin, because he is still alive. As most everybody is aware in January, 2023, Damar Hamlin died on the football field, and was resuscitated on the football field. A miracle of modern medicine as Damar Hamlin was in the right place at the right time.

However, in Hamlin’s first interview since the incident, it just keeps getting more bizarre! Hamlin was interviewed on ABC News’ “Good Morning America” by Michael Strahan, who is himself a retired NFL football player.

Strahan asked, “You’re 24. Peak physical condition [that] could run circles around me right now. How did the doctors describe what happened to you?” 

[So are we finally going find out what happened? Actually, NO, … as it just keeps getting more bizarre.]

Hamlin stated that he would not comment on what doctors told him. “That’s something I want to stay away from,” Hamlin said in response, which was not included in an ABC News article about the interview.

[Is there some sort of ‘gag order’ in play here? It sure sounds like it … but by whom?]

Strahan then asked: “I know from my experience at NFL, they do more tests than anything. And in the course of you having your physical, did anybody ever come back with any, say, you had a heart issue or anything that was abnormal?”

“Honestly, no. I’ve always been a healthy, young, fit, energetic human being, let alone athlete. So it was something that [we’re] still processing, and I’m still talking through my doctors to see what everything was,” Hamlin said in response.

[So here Hamlin basically confirms that he has no underlying structural cardiac abnormality. Hmmm!]

Strahan then asked Hamlin what he remembers before he collapsed during the game. He took a long pause before responding.

“That’s something I don’t really want to get too deep in the details of,” Hamlin stated. “That’s something I’m still trying to work through, you know, why that happened to me.”

[This is even more incredulous and more bizarre. Why the long pause? The details in this case are the key to his diagnosis!]

When asked, Hamlin said that he “eventually” wants to play professional football again.

“Eventually. That’s always the goal. Like I said, as a competitor, I’m trying to do things just to [keep] advancing my situation,” Hamlin said. “But I’m allowing that to be in God’s hands. I’m just thankful he gave me a second chance.”

[A nice answer … what sounds like a nice scripted answer.]

I challenge anyone to explain why Damar Hamlin does not have a defibrillator (AICD). In everyday medical practice if someone young suffers a cardiac arrest, he/she gets an AICD. Although no one has specifically stated, Damar Hamlin does not appear to have a defibrillator. [Bizarre, again!] 

In some circles the rumor is that the cause of Damar Hamlin’s sudden death episode was “Commotio Cordis.” (Commotio Cordis refers to the sudden arrhythmic death caused by a low/mild chest wall impact. Commotio Cordis is seen mostly in athletes between the ages of 8 and 18 who are partaking in sports with projectiles such as baseballs, hockey pucks, or lacrosse balls.)

Even though Commotio Cordis is possible, think of all the hits to the chest a football player gets during the course of a single game. Think of the number of hits to the chest an entire football team gets during a full season … during a full season with daily practices. Certainly while Commotio Cordis is possible, the odds against this having been the cause of Hamlin’s cardiac arrest are infinitesimal. 

Furthermore Damar Hamlin said that he wants to play football again. 

[Again a very bizarre statement, as he died once on the field. Apparently, some medical authority must have told him that it might be safe for him to play football again in the future.]

Does anyone know if Commotio Cordis recurs? To me this is an unanswerable question as most individuals that have a sudden death episode due to Commotio Cordis are either dead or have a defibrillator placed. I can find no medical studies that address this issue.

In conclusion, let’s think about this situation logically:

Damar Hamlin basically died on the football field on a nationally televised  Monday Night Football game.

He was resuscitated and had a multitude of cardiac tests, the results of which are seemingly being kept secret.

As best we know, no fixable cardiac issue was found. Again for whatever reason this continues to be “hush-hush.”

If any abnormality was found on cardiac testing it can be presumed that it must be a possibly temporary thing, because Damar Hamlin did not receive a defibrillator, and is considering playing football again.

Could it be that Damar Hamlin had something possibly temporary … like myocarditis? As most myocarditis resolves, further future testing could indeed document that his myocarditis had or had not resolved. At that point it could be safe for Damar Hamlin to play football again. The most common cause of myocarditis is a viral infection. As best we know, Damar Hamlin did not have a symptomatic viral infection. If he was feeling poorly prior to that game, he would have remembered it, and possibly would not have even played.

Using only logical thinking, could it be that Damar Hamlin had myocarditis due to his Covid vaccine/booster? As that myocarditis will probably resolve with time, he did not need a defibrillator, and in the future could possibly be cleared to play football again? If this were the case, there would be multiple entities that would want this kept quiet , very quiet.

I am aware that many are tired of my harping on this same subject. However, there is a very simple resolution … Have the cardiac doctors, Damar Hamlin, and the NFL open up and tell the truth!

Until I read an article by Anders Corr, I was not aware that China was involved in the competitive field of Electric Vehicles. On the surface, in a rational world the concept of China producing EVs seems oxymoronic, as China is one of the world’s worst polluters.

Why is China increasing its footprint in the present field of EV production? If you think that Beijing has only the good of mankind in mind, then your middle name might be either “Naivé” or Robinette. … Anders Corr’s middle name is neither. (FYI, Anders Corr has a bachelor’s/master’s in political science from Yale University (2001) and a doctorate in government from Harvard University (2008). He is a principal at Corr Analytics Inc., publisher of the Journal of Political Risk.)

Most of the following is from Anders Carr’s article in The Epoch Times titled: “China’s Electric Vehicles Could Destroy America”:

“China uses its weak environmental regulations and lousy labor policies to outcompete U.S. car manufacturers on price. 

In 2021, Japan led in passenger vehicle exports, Germany and China were neck-in-neck for second place, and the United States and South Korea trailed behind.

Since 2020 as the EV revolution hit, China is gaining fast. The output of all its competitors is either stalling or, in the case of the United States, falling.

Japanese car companies are slow off the block from hybrid vehicles to pure electric. According to Reuters on Jan. 23, ‘Lapping them are Chinese firms, which appear best-positioned to keep their pole position, both at home and internationally.’

On Jan. 24, The Wall Street Journal reported that Ford was in talks to sell one of its plants in Germany to BYD, China’s biggest EV maker. BYD outsold Tesla in 2022, and already sells electric cars and buses in Europe. Buying the Ford plant in Germany “would give BYD a stronghold for further expansion on the continent,” according to the Journal.

The tightest choke point in the EV supply chain is battery manufacturing. BYD has it covered. China manufactures 56 percent of all EV batteries, and the CCP will put China’s EV makers first in line.

An added advantage to Beijing from the world moving away from oil is that China has very little of it. The United States has a lot, so the shift is particularly painful for relative U.S. economic strength.

China’s defeat of America’s oil and vehicle industries, after so many others have already gone, will put downward pressure on good American jobs.”

Think about it … every dollar that China makes can be turned by Beijing into military aggression and human rights abuse, up to and including genocide of the Uyghurs.

The next time you consider buying an EV to save the planet from global warming, keep in mind that China is taking advantage of the present EV situation, but not for the good of mankind. A lot of the future China profits from EVs will only serve to further weaken the U.S, and in practical terms will contribute the the killing of another Ugyhur.

Let’s say that for the sake of discussion there is a new potentially deadly disease. A disease that we have not seen before. A disease for which there is no known treatment. If you were a physician, what would you do? … nothing or something? If you do nothing, nothing changes, and people will continue to die. If you try something like using a drug off-label that has a proven safety profile, you may help some. In fact you may help many. To me, as long as the side-effect profile is good (safe), you obviously need to try this drug off-label. This is a no brainer! … a no-brainer apparently except to Dr. Fauci, and to those on multiple state medical boards.

Many months back when the “esteemed” Dr. Fauci was asked about using a certain combination of meds to treat the coronavirus, he responded that any treatment modality would need to be validated by controlled studies. 

(BTW his answer was a totally impractical answer! Think about it … at that point were there controlled studies on masks, lockdowns, social distancing, or a vaccine? No. No. No, and No!)

How many people died in the USA, because Dr. Fauci refused to give a reasonable practical answer? How many people died in various states because the state’s medical boards acted like sheep? … acted like vindictive sheep, no less. Threatening physicians with taking away their medical licenses if they did not kowtow to those non-elected state medical boards.

At present there are multiple legal cases in many states involving medical boards who inserted themselves into what is supposed to be a personal physician-patient relationship.

“There have been a lot of medical boards harassing physicians over ivermectin, also hydroxychloroquine. Also, some of their public statements against mask mandates and questioning the vaccine,” Andrew Schlafly, a lawyer who’s filed several lawsuits on behalf of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, told The Epoch Times.

On Feb. 11, 2022, South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson released a statement saying doctors in his state have the authority to treat COVID-19 by prescribing “off-label” drugs. Off-label prescribing is a legal and widespread practice among doctors.

Despite that on Feb. 1, 2022, Dr. Yusuf Saleeby, a medical doctor in South Carolina with over 30 years of experience, received a letter from South Carolina’s medical board detailing that it’d received a complaint that he prescribed ivermectin to one of his patients. The board stated it was opening an investigation.

What Saleeby experienced is typical of many state medical boards’ behavior across the country.

“Medical boards know that if they discipline a physician based solely on ivermectin, that may cause political problems,” Schlafly said. Some state legislators are proponents of patients having access to ivermectin.

“So, what medical boards do instead is find the target physician who prescribes ivermectin, and they look for some other basis to discipline their physician,” Schlafly said.

“So, they go on a fishing expedition, and they’ll try to find some other graph to discipline that physician. And the real reason is they’re retaliating against the physician for using ivermectin.”

Chambers agrees. “If you’re turning over the complete medical history of patients, there’s probably going to be other places where you didn’t dot all your I’s and cross all your T’s. That’s the nature of human record-keeping.”

So who are the “bad guys?” The experienced practicing physicians like Dr. Saleeby, who are actually on the battle field, or Dr. Fauci and the vindictive members of state medical boards, many of whom have little or no practical experience treating patients?

I have made my choice … have you?

As is my pattern on Sunday I bring attention to someone we can all admire. Nineteen-year-old Delivontae Johnson, is an East Arkansas Community College student. He had hit a pothole in Memphis on the way to church 11 days prior and on 1/12/23 had pulled into the Walmart parking lot in his hometown of Forrest City, Arkansas to use the ATM en route to the mechanic. That’s when he spotted something in a shopping cart.

That something happened to be a wallet belonging to Dee Harkrider.

What to do?

From Epoch Bright:

“After seeing the name on the license, I searched it up on Facebook, and let Miss Dee know that I had her wallet,” said Delivontae. However, when he didn’t get an immediate response to his message, he went through her photos, found a picture of Elaine Keown, and texted her to let her know about the missing wallet.

Ms. Keown then contacted Dee Harkrider to let her know that her wallet had been found. At this point the sixty-one year old grandma had not even realized that her wallet was missing, and was in the adjacent town of Palestine.

Learning that Harkrider was not at home in Wynne, but in Palestine, Johnson took a detour and drove over 20 miles out of his way to reach her. He called Harkrider on the way and met her in a CR Smalls and Company restaurant parking lot.

“He told me he wanted to make sure I got my wallet back,” Harkrider said. “Everything was in it! I was so grateful for what he had done, so I had a $20 bill tucked in my wallet, and gave that to him to show my appreciation. I wish I had had more to give him.”

The grateful grandmother took a selfie with Johnson and shared their story on Facebook. The post went viral.

She told The Epoch Times: “I wanted him to be recognized for what he had done, plus wanted to share the goodness of God … I do believe God puts people in our lives, and in my case, it was for good that Delivontae came into my life … at only 19 years old he showed honesty, compassion, and integrity for another human being.”

I agree! Delivontae Johnson is certainly someone we can admire for his honestly and his willingness to literally go the extra mile. Kudos to Delivontae and his single mother of four, Rachel, who had obviously instilled these virtues in her four children.

From BlazeNews:

“Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who delivered the Republican address to the nation on the heels of President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on Tuesday 2/7/23, asserted that the president and his party have ‘failed’ Americans and that the divisions in the nation today are ‘between normal or crazy.’”

With Biden’s approval numbers in the tank, it appears that those that are “normal” disapprove of Joe, and those who are “crazy” approve of Joe’s performance. If Joe was a businessman, he would soon be an out-of-business businessman. You just can’t piss off a lot of the population with “woke” nonsense, and expect them to like you. … and that segues to Disney. Over the last few years it appears to me that Disney has done its damnest to try to alienate a large portion of the population with its woke nonsense. 

I just read a piece by Karol Marcowicz that pointed out the insanity of what Disney is doing to itself. The major difference between the actions of Biden and Disney, is that if Biden tanks, no me importa to him as already over 60% of the crazies do not want him to run again, whereas if Disney tanks, the revenue tanks which makes its stock price tank, which makes stock holders unhappy, etc. a continuing cascade.

In the last year or so, Disney inserted itself into the political debate over Florida’s Parental Right’s Law, and then they were caught discussing “adding queerness” into children’s programming. Both were just downright stupid. Why would any business purposely piss-off half of its potential customers? Disney even continues to still try to placate its woke critics with disclaimers before many of its classic films, e.g. Dumbo and Peter Pan. 

So guess what happens  when the California Disney execs push their “woke” agenda on  “the normals?” … The CEO was replaced. The Disney stock price dropped about $25%, and Disney just announced that it was laying off 7,000 workers. Recently the Magic Kingdom closed Splash Mountain, because it offended some “woke” individual or group.

As Karol Marcowicz pointed out in her op-ed, if Disney continues to try to please the woke (the crazies), we may be witnessing the collapse of Disney as the normals take their entertainment dollar elsewhere. As we are witnessing the continuing collapsing of Joe Biden’s approval numbers, the Magic Kingdom is no longer “magic!” The question is “can Disney change course?”
