Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus is NOT an actual medical doctor.

He's not:  Tedros was elected as Director-General of the World Health Organization by the World Health Assembly on 23 May 2017,[becoming the first director-general who is not a medical doctor.[Wiki footnote #58].

You have to wonder, why Dr. Anthony Fauci is so enamored with this corrupt phony doctor.

Paging Dr. Nick...I'd feel safer with Dr. Nick running the WHO.

Joey Pacs Biden now accepting PAC Cash.

Washington Examiner: Biden reverses course to accept help from super PACs.

With campaign cash coming into Joe Biden's coffers more slowly than his 2020 Democratic rivals, the former vice president reversed a long-standing position and will now welcome help from outside, free-spending super PACs.

"In this time of crisis in our politics, it is not surprising that those who are dedicated to defeating Donald Trump are organizing in every way permitted by current law to bring an end to his disastrous presidency. Nothing changes unless we defeat Donald Trump," Biden campaign spokeswoman Kate Bedingfield said in a statement.

Last month, a different Biden campaign spokesperson, T.J. Ducklo, told reporters his campaign is committed to rejecting any super PACs that may join the race.
[.]
Voicing opposition to super PACS has long been a point of pride for Biden, who wrote in his 2017 book Promise Me, Dad that if he ran in the 2016 race, he would have rejected any help from a super PAC.

“I knew there was big money out there for me. But I also knew people were sick of it all… rejecting super PAC money wasn't a hardship for me," he wrote.

The flip-flop is a tacit admission by the Biden campaign that it's growing concern that it may not have enough money to compete in Democratic primary. Should outside groups begin fundraising on behalf of Biden's candidacy, the former vice president would be the only candidate in the race to have a super PAC on his behalf.

"In this time of crisis in our politics..." - yeah, that's why Joey Pacs needs the campaign cash. Not because his candidacy is hemorrhaging and imploding. No....

God is gay; Swarthmore College course.

RT: US college suggests ‘God is queer,’ heaven forbid you challenge it!

Another liberal institution is challenging an age-old dogma – this time on hallowed religious ground – with radical new ideas. This would not be worrisome if dissenting voices were invited, but that is not the case.

Hell hath no fury than a liberal scorned, and if Swarthmore College, situated on a lush, tree-lined campus in the state of Pennsylvania, teaches that God might be experiencing some doubt over his (her?) sexual identity then who are we mere mortals to doubt it? Perhaps the liberal college might even consider extending an invitation to God the Almighty, who micromanaged the Creation in just seven days, to enroll in this course, which promises to “stretch the limits of gendering, and sexing, the divine.”
[.]
...with ultra-liberal classes like the one being offered by Professor Gwynn Kessler, entitled ‘Queering God: Feminist and Queer Theology,’ religious doctrine threatens to be turned on its head to such a degree that what is left bears no resemblance to Christian teachings.

Swarthmore course description:

 Who is Gwen Kessler?

From Campus Reform:

[Professor Gwynn Kessler] is an associate professor of religion at Swarthmore College. She received her Ph.D. in Rabbinics from the Jewish Theological Seminary and has taught at various universities in the U.S., including the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and the University of Florida. Kessler has taught many different courses, some of which are on Jewish History, Judaism and Gender, Judaism and Ecology, Feminist Theology, and Religion and Gender. In her university bio, it says that her work fits the categories of “postmodern, feminist, and queer theoretical approaches.”

Campus Reform reached out to Kessler for comments regarding her course but received no response in time for publication.

Swarthmore seems to create its own problems and craves attention:

NPR: Swarthmore Fraternities Disband Over Leaked Documents That Detailed Misogyny:

...campus publications Voices and The Phoenix released anonymously leaked internal documents from Phi Psi, dating from 2010 to 2016.

The trove of files included minutes, detailing graphic sexual encounters with female students, lists of fraternity hazing challenges, and intimate videos and photographs of women that appear to have been taken without their consent. (In most instances, the papers report, the women have their backs to the camera.) One entry refers to an alleged "rape tunnel" and a "rape attic" in one of the fraternity headquarters.

Is there any question why so many college graduates have no marketable and appreciable real-world job qualifications? There are so many employment opportunities that hinge on God's gender and sexual orientation as opposed to asking a prospective employee, "can you create Pivot Tables?"

And DEM presidential candidates want to forgive student loan debt? For students majoring in courses like the above, the amount they owe should be doubled.

Michigan resident Richard Zelasko wins $80 Million lottery. HAS TO give half the winnings to ex-wife.

The Independent via Yahoo: Man who won $80m in the lottery must give half of winnings to estranged wife.

A man who won $80m playing the lottery while going through divorce proceedings will be required to give half his winnings to his ex-wife, a court has ruled.

Richard Anthony Zelasko, 50, has been told he must split the money with his estranged wife Mary Elizabeth, 48, after an arbitrator deemed the winnings part of the “marital estate”.

The couple, from Pontiac, Michigan, were married from 2004 until September 2011, at which point Elizabeth filed for divorce, according to court documents.

Two years later, Zelasko won an $80m Mega Millions lottery jackpot, which amounted to $38m after taxes and deductions.

Despite being separated at the time the ticket was purchased, the arbitrator deemed the winnings should be shared jointly because “that was probably not the first lottery ticket that defendant purchased during the marriage, and ‘as losses throughout the marriage were incurred jointly, so should winnings be shared jointly’”.

According to court documents, Elizabeth earned between $100,000 and $120,000 annually while Zelasko earned $36,000 annually during their marriage.

Ya think Elizabeth is hearing from her old boyfriends, telling her, "they really liked her a lot and never got over her,"? I'm sure she's lovely...anyone have her phone number?

Heavy.com is NOT reliable. Reports John Earnest "open lettter filled with references" to 4Chan.

Heavy.com is unreliable.

Case in point, their story of John Earnest: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know, item # 3:

John Earnest posted a link his manifesto on 8chan, an imageboard-style forum, and his “open letter” is filled with references to the far right and other dark corners of the Internet. He also referenced 4Chan’s /pol/ message board.

Earnest's "open letter / manifesto" never once mentions 4Chan. He mentions 8Chan once, referring to how others will post on 8Chan writing, " 'Feds are talking to me guys because I post on 8chan, it’s so spooky’ are ‘organically’ popping up.' What a load of shit [.]"

He's writing about the postings of others on 4Chan and 8Chan, not himself.

WTF Heavy? What and who are the "Other Dark Corners of the Internet"? The only reference Heavy makes is PewDiePie as their example of a "Dark Corner"? PewDiePie (PDP) a "Dark Corner"? AYFKM?

Earnest's manifesto does mention /pol/ but both 4Chan and 8Chan have their versions of a similar sub using /pol/ and simply, /p.  I don't know what point Heavy.com is attempting to make. That Earnest was radicalized by what he read or viewed on 8Chan, 4Chan or PDP?

I haven't looked today, but I'd imagine John Earnest and his terrorist actions are mentioned all over The Chans. I spent some time at 4Chan last night and found nothing referencing him prior to the shootings.

According to Media Bias, Heavy.com skews politically Left. Please, no - I'm not saying "we can't ever trust Left-leaning media sites."

I can't remember the exact story, but it was recent. I read various reports on the issue. Again, wish I could remember the topic but I can't. Essentially, what I read were conflicting information the likes of:

One story said, "the car was heading east."

A second story said, "the car was heading west."

That kind of thing.

Heavy.com is known for it's "Five Fast Facts You Need to Know About [Insert subject or issue]." Heavy.com is like Wikipedia. Both are okay, below mid-level, sources for general, casual information and knowledge on any subject. For reliable and factual information, it is up to all of us to dig deeper.

DNR Officer who died not wearing life preserver?

MN Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Conservation Officer Eugene Wynn Jr. died on April 19.  He and another officer were were responding to a call of something suspicious in the water on a lake near Pine City.

KNSI: DNR Officer May Not Have Been Wearing Life Jacket.

Emergency dispatch audio shows an officer on shore asking if 43 year old Eugene Wynn Jr. had a life jacket. A response a short time later said, "I don't believe he had it on."
[.]
Friday evening, Wynn and another officer from the Pine County Sheriff's Office were responding to a call of something suspicious in the water on a lake near Pine City. Within a minute of launching a boat to get a better look, the pair were thrown into the water.

The deputy was rescued by nearby boaters, but Wynn slipped under the surface and never came back up. His body was recovered around 1:30 a.m. Saturday morning.

The object in the water which sparked the original call was never found.

Officer.com: Conservation Officer dies after being thrown from boat.

“The original call was about a body in the water, a potential body in the water,” said Joe Albert, a Department of Natural Resources (DNR) spokesman. “Like any law enforcement people, [they] [sic] jumped on it and got out there as quick as possible.”

Details after that point are scant, Albert said. About 7:45 p.m., Wynn and a Pine County sheriff’s deputy got into a boat to check on the floating object [.]

The Sheriff’s Office and DNR declined to say whether Wynn was wearing a life jacket.

Page 15 of the 2019 Minnesota State Boating Guide:

Had this same situation happened to John or Jane Q. Pubic, I can only imagine the overkill campaign of hyperacuity undertaken by the DNR, the MN Nanny State in general, and the media in an endless stream of Public Service Announcements (PSA) and "Awareness Campaigns" telling us how important it is to always wear a life preserver when boating.

It's only a matter of time until some group, (the DNR?), seeks billions of dollars of additional taxpayer money investments for a promotional and wide-ranging campaign making us "aware" that life preservers need to be worn when boating, swimming, bathing, running through a water sprinkler, drinking a glass of water - or other liquids.

The DNR declines to confirm that Officer Wynn wasn't wearing a life preserver.  Had the officer been wearing a life preserver, it would have already been confirmed and stated as such. We can reasonable presume he wasn't and are again treated to another chapter of hypocrisy and double standards in a Nanny State where, "do as we say, not as we do" is The Mantra.

It never surprises me when I'm on the road and make it point in noticing how many police driving in their squad cars aren't wearing their seat/shoulder belt. I've noticed the same behavior by those in law enforcement, in their vehicles during rain without their squad car headlights turned on - which is law in The Peoples' Republic of Minnesota (TPRoM). 

TPRoM just passed the Distracted Driving law, which goes into effect August 1, 2019. I can only imagine the magnitude and massive amount of PSA's and "Awareness Campaigns" that will bombard us under the guise of "educating the public on the dangers of Distracted Driving." Surely there must be a need for millions and millions of taxpayer money investments needed by TPRoM for funding this "Awareness Campaign" because none of us know that distracted driving can cause deathly consequences.

Signage is needed. Cutesy radio jingles and television ads are compulsory. Time and money must be spent for "free" community events informing us that distracted driving is dangerous. New, mandatory government websites will be created. All of these mass "Awareness Campaigns" will, of course, be powered by renewable energy.

The funny part about TPRoM's Distracted Driving law is that it is an offense for a driver to be holding a cell phone or electronic device. How is "holding" (not using) a cell phone any different from someone driving while holding a mug of coffee, a can of soda or worse - those who drive while eating burgers, fries and/or tacos?

It's probably a good idea that we all wear a life preserver all the time, even if we have no intention of being near a body of water. We never know when one of those Noah-age floods might rain down upon us without notice.

Our condolences to the family and friends of Officer Wynn. This is not a post that is critical of him or his service. This is about hypocrisy within the institutional and governmental bureaucracies where equal standards are not applied for political optics and selective enforcement is...well...selective.

What caused the boat to lurch remains under investigation. It will be interesting to find the answer.
