OUR FUTURIST THOMAS FREY IS ON TO TALK SWARMBOTS The very word "swarmbots" is rather intimidating but Thomas says they can be transformative in our daily lives. We're talking about how swarms of tiny robots can both be used as weapons and tiny helpers that can do everyday tasks for us. He's also going to tell me that we don't need to worry about AI killing us all. That's going to take some convincing.

GOOD GRIEF THE DENVER PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARD IS TRASH A listener sent me the video of last night's school board meeting where Michelle Quattlebaum went on a rant about white supremacy where she said that traits like "perfectionism" and "objectivism" were symptoms of white supremacy. She was also confronted by surveys of students and parents and staff that showed they are OVERWHELMINGLY in favor of SROs in schools and she responded that was just because black students were too afraid to say no. Then Sochi Gaytan cut her mic because she would not shut up and TayTay called Gaytan a racist. These people are absolute idiots who are very invested in perpetuating victim ideology over student safety and student achievement. Then Tay tried to butt his opinion without asking for the floor so she cut his mic too while he yelled about racist systems and the crowd applauded. Why aren't there more parents there to shout HIM down? Why can't he follow proper procedure? Oh, it's probably a symptom of white supremacy to have an organized meeting with rules. What a dumpster fire. Watch it here, just jump to about 1:25:00 to watch the chaos.
BUNCH OF WHITE WOMEN DO PERFORMANCE ART AT THE CAPITOL A bunch of liberal women who want to show all their friends HOW MUCH THEY CARE are in the middle of a sit in at the Capitol demanding that Jared Polis issue an entirely, sure to be struck down immediately, complete ban of all guns. They want to repeal the 2nd Amendment and ban all guns, but as far as I can tell, they don't have an idea of how to get guns illegally owned by criminals so they can go pound sand.
FBI DIRECTOR WRAY IS ABOUT TO FAFO and if you don't know what that means you can google it. He met with Rep. James Comer for ninety minutes yesterday and produced the FBI report where a known informant accused Joe Biden of selling access and taking bribes while Vice President. So far it is uncorroborated, but what is unclear is if it was ever investigated. Comer wants to show the document to Congress so Congress can investigate and says the American people have lost faith in the FBI's ability to investigate it properly. He's right about that last part. The fact that Comer is moving forward with Contempt of Congress charges against Wray says there is some juicy stuff in this document. This article is designed to remind you that Wray was appointed by two Republican presidents so he's a great guy, amiright? I don't care who appointed him, he's been shown to be unfit for the office in my opinion. This is the most laughable part of the story:
Comer has claimed the form contains information related to “an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions.”
Tyson said inquiries like that are among the most difficult for the FBI to respond to, even as it strives to give Congress information to which it is legally entitled.
“That’s exactly the time when the FBI really clams up and gets worried about its information being used for political purposes,” she said. (emphasis mine)
“To the extent that there is some sort of narrative that Congress wants to push forward that may be political in nature, and they’re trying to get, for example, law enforcement information to further their narrative, that’s a very, very dangerous place for the FBI to be.”
Remember all the leaks from the FBI during the Trump investigation? Remember those? The part about the FBI really "clamming up" is patently ridiculous and counts on us forgetting the entire fake Russian collusion investigation. What a joke they have become.
TIME TO BUY LITTLE JOHNNY HIS STARTER WHIP A television station in LA decided to air the "family friendly" West Hollywood PRIDE parade and this is what passes for family friendly in LA:
Do you remember when you sat on the side of your kids bed and told them about sexual fetishes like people wearing dog masks and men getting whipped in the back of a pickup truck? Good times...good times. But wait, there's more! The Tempe Arizona PRIDE event featured a guy singing to a crowd of families and children about anal sex. But hey, you do you with your kids. Just don't come after mine. He also urged people to vote Democrat.
WHEN A GAY RIGHTS ATTORNEY HAS HAD ENOUGH I know several gay people who are moving quickly to the "LGB without the T" movement. They recognize that the trans movement, especially with kids, is simply working to eradicate gay kids and turn them into trans kids unnecessarily. This is an interesting column about a gay rights attorney who is speaking out about the "Q+" in the former movement, and pointing out that within that movement there are pedophiles trying to argue that they just have a sexual fetish that needs to be recognized and respected. Hard no from me and from this attorney, who points out as Valdamar did yesterday that the gay movement has had to battle accusations of pedophilia for years, and now the pedophiles are highjacking their space.
MINNESOTA BRAVELY SHOT DOWN XCEL'S CHARGING STATION PLAN And I sure hope ours does too, but without the cash grab from Minnesotans Xcel seems to be stymied and has withdrawn the plan. It wasn't just ratepayers who howled, it was businesses in the business of building charging stations, who rightly pointed out that using other people's money they are FORCED to fork over gives Xcel an unfair advantage. They are right.
CHRIS CHRISTIE JUMPS IN THE RACE And I am not a fan, HOWEVER if this article is correct, I welcome him. He seems to be going after Trump hard as his strategy and I welcome that. Read more here if you subscribe to the Wall Street Journal.
ROBIN NICETA'S NUTTY BRAIN CANCER CON IS BEING USED AGAINST HER The woman who filed a false child abuse complaint against Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky lied about having brain cancer in a bid to get out of going on trial, and now the prosecutor is going to use her false claim against her. Good. She's obviously nuts or an idiot. She used images from Google images to "prove" her claim.
BAD REVIEWS = BOX OFFICE SUCCESS? That's what a new study out of California shows. From this article:
“We contend that it’s essential to differentiate among movie critics, arguing that the influence of reviews on box office performance isn’t uniform across all critics,” says the study’s lead author, Pantelis Loupos, assistant professor of marketing and business analysis for the Graduate School of Management, in a university release. “In our analysis, we demonstrate that not all positive or negative reviews necessarily signal a movie’s success or failure, respectively.”
I contend that the more politically bent the reviewer is, the less I care about his or her opinion. That's why I rely on Christian Toto's reviews which you can always find here.
NEW TEETH IN COLORADO'S EQUAL PAY LAW Colorado has a very stringent equal pay for equal work law, but it largely untested as of yet. One of the reasons is that women who allege workplace discrimination face the prospect of a very expensive legal battle they may not win. Now in Colorado women can get legal assistance when they file a claim and the claim has to be heard by the Colorado Department of Labor. This is a big deal. Trust me on this.

WILL TARGET'S COLLAPSE WAKE UP OTHER BOARDS? There isn't a fine line separating support for diverse peoples and alienating your audience. It's pretty clear that the line is shoving the trans agenda into everyone's face, especially on children. This article shares comments by Shark Tank investor Kevin O'Leary about how boards and corporations need to know EXACTLY what they are doing with their dollars and to understand the instantaneous nature of social media. In the meantime, Target has lost about $16 BILLION in market capitalization. Not as much as Bud Light, but close.
