Tragic Comedies

By Tammy Derouin

My cable subscription covers a couple hundred channels so this past week I decided to step beyond the few networks I typically watch. I was hopeful that I would find something new and appealing in the entertainment world. I was hopeful. I was so hopeful.

Comedy is usually my first choice. After I eliminated networks which showcased tragic comedies such as the main stream media and their laughable news networks, I moved on hoping to find something along the lines of more traditional comedy. I knew the so called late night comedy shows wouldn't provide anything entertaining. They've become left-wing hired jokers, puppets on strings. When the comedy search failed, I looked for a drama. Well, that search failed too. I was unable to find anything worth watching on 200 plus channels.

I found a lot of shows I could label as new, odd and different but little which seemed appealing. I found men parading around as women in some sort of competition. It was very disturbing. I do not enjoying watching what is considered reality TV because in many cases it encourages hostility and highlights the dark side of emotions. There's always so much yelling and screaming on these shows. If that kind of behavior is your true reality, it's time to make some changes.

Bad behavior has become acceptable.......

Study: Some public pensions funds could run dry in downturn - CBS News

Study: Some public pensions funds could run dry in downturn - CBS News:
"Many pension funds for public workers already owe far more in retirement benefits than they have in the bank, and the problem will only grow worse if the economy slows down, according to a report released last week.
The study from The Pew Charitable Trusts found that the New Jersey and Kentucky public pension funds are in such perilous shape that they risk running dry.
"Even after eight years of economic recovery — eight straight years of stock market gains — the public pension plans are more vulnerable than they've ever been to the next recession," researcher Greg Mennis said in an interview..."

Study: Multivitamins, Other Common Supplements Have No Health Benefits - Study Finds

Study: Multivitamins, Other Common Supplements Have No Health Benefits - Study Finds
TORONTO — Taking multivitamins or other commonly consumed vitamin and mineral supplements won’t actually provide you any health benefits, but they won’t harm you either, a new study finds.

Researchers from the University of Toronto and St. Michael’s Hospital conducted a review of 179 studies on popular vitamin supplements that were published between January 2012 and October 2017.  

Taking multivitamins or other commonly consumed vitamin and mineral supplements won’t actually provide you any health benefits, but they won’t harm you either, a new study finds.

...The research team concluded that the most commonly consumed supplements — multivitamins, vitamin D, calcium, and vitamin C — had no effect on a person’s risk of suffering a heart attack stroke, heart disease, or early death.

“We were surprised to find so few positive effects of the most common supplements that people consume,” notes Dr. David Jenkins, the study’s lead author, in a statement. 
“Our review found that if you want to use multivitamins, vitamin D, calcium or vitamin C, it does no harm – but there is no apparent advantage either.”

...The authors say it’s best to stick to a healthy diet that includes plenty of fruits and vegetables which naturally provide our bodies with vitamins and minerals...

London cyclists too white, male and middle class, says capital's cycling chief in vow to tackle diversity 'problem' | The Independent

London cyclists too white, male and middle class, says capital's cycling chief in vow to tackle diversity 'problem' | The Independent:
"Too few women and people from ethnic minority groups cycle in London and more must be done to promote diversity among a largely white, male and middle class biking community, the city’s walking and cycling commissioner has said.
Grand schemes, such as the Cycle Superhighway network of partially-segregated routes linking the suburbs with the centre, are too often perceived as simply a way of getting “middle-aged men cycling faster around the city”, Will Norman acknowledged.
He said he was considering setting diversity targets for London’s cycling population to ensure progress was achieved."...

Fake news or simply LIES!-----Obama officials explain viral photos of immigrant children 'in cages' - Business Insider

Obama officials explain viral photos of immigrant children 'in cages' - Business Insider

• Several 2014 photos of detained immigrant children resurfaced on Twitter over the weekend and went viral. 
• Former Obama administration officials tried to explain the context behind the photos, which appeared to show migrant kids locked up in cages. 
• The former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau had shared the images on Twitter, mistakenly believing they were taken during Donald Trump's presidency. 
• The former officials doubled down on their criticisms of Trump's immigration policies, and said the 2014 photos showed unaccompanied children the government had been attempting to place with family members. 

Several former Obama administration officials took to social media and news outlets on Tuesday to explain a gallery of years-old photos that showed immigrant children sleeping in shoddy conditions at a government-run holding facility in Arizona.

The images, which were first published by the Associated Press in 2014, resurfaced over the weekend for reasons that remain unclear, and quickly prompted viral outrage on Twitter. 

One particularly disturbing image showed two children sleeping on mattresses on the floor inside what appeared to be a cage.
A number of prominent liberals — and even a former Obama administration official — shared the photos in outrage, mistakenly believing they depicted the Trump administration's treatment of immigrant children who were forcibly separated from their parents.
Jon Favreau, who worked as a speechwriter for former President Barack Obama, tweeted, "This is happening right now, and the only debate that matters is how we force our government to get these kids back to their families as fast as humanly possible."

Favreau said Tuesday he later deleted the tweet after social media users pointed out that the photos were taken during the Obama administration. 

But by that point, critics had already rushed to accuse him of concealing Obama's own harsh immigration tactics while condemning Trump's..."

UN knew about African sex-for-food scandal at charities 16 years ago, leaked report claims
"Workers from more than 40 charity organizations exploited refugee children and women in West Africa by trading food for sex, according to a leaked report — that the United Nations has known about for 16 years.
The disturbing scandal is laid out in an 84-page report produced in 2001 by researchers for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and Save the Children working at refugee camps in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia.
The report was handed over to the UNHCR in 2002 but only a summary of the allegations was published.
Identified in it are 40 organizations “whose workers are alleged to be in sexually exploitative relationships with refugee children,” according to The Times in the UK, which obtained a copy of the full report.
Aid workers were “among the prime sexual exploiters of refugee children, often using the very humanitarian assistance and services intended to benefit refugees as a tool of exploitation.”
They allegedly traded basic needs — like food, oil, access to education and plastic sheeting for shelters — for sex."...

How to Fail Today's Starbucks Racial Sensitivity Training

How to Fail Today's Starbucks Racial Sensitivity Training:
"...when a couple of black people a few weeks ago wanted to use the restroom at a Starbucks in Philadelphia without buying anything, and they refused three requests from employees to leave and three more requests from the cops to do the same, Starbucks took the only action open to it: give the black people lots of free stuff, then hold a racial sensitivity training session for 177,000 employees of Starbucks.
This may be the biggest, but it is hardly the first seminar in America where white people have to learn more about their evil racist ways.

 Over the last several years, more than 100,000 teachers have gone through the same kind of training to learn how much white people suck.
In most schools, it begins with an invitation to have a "Courageous Conversation" about race. 

Tip for the soon to be enlightened 177,000: If you want to keep your job and think you are not racist, don't let anyone know about it, or you will meet the same fate as the teachers who said the same thing in their seminars. 

 They get fired.
So there is no conversation – just monologue...
...Chicago was forced to pay $22.5 million for its role in a group of black people tossing a young white woman out of a tall building. 

 A Harvard sociologist told the judge and jury that anytime a white person is in a black neighborhood, he can expect to experience Routine Activity Theory – i.e., black people routinely visit violence on white people.
The judge made it part of his ruling.
Question 1: Why is black-on-white violence so routine that they even have a name for it?
Question 2: Why are black-on-white crime and violence 6, 10, even 1,000 times greater than white-on-black violence?
Question 3: Why do black people – like Michelle Obama – get special preferences for college admission based on race?

The Three Stooges of Spygate-The American Spectator

The Three Stooges of SpygateThe American Spectator:
"Brennan, Comey, and Clapper have been caught in a big fat wringer.
Bret Baier, in his April interview with Jim Comey on Fox News, asked him if he had seen John Brennan and Jim Clapper together since his firing.
“No, no,” Comey replied at first, then said, “Actually, I had dinner with the two of them together with our spouses.”
Baier asked him if they discussed “Trump cases” on the triple date.
“No, we did not,” he answered.
Add that to Comey’s voluminous record of whoppers. 
The idea that the three stooges of Spygate, whose red-hot antipathy for Trump is nothing if not all-consuming, went out to dinner without discussing the investigation of him strains all credulity.
No doubt one of their anxieties at the dinner was: When will the American public find out about the spy we sent to infiltrate the Trump campaign’s ranks?...

Trump inherits Reagan's wind - Washington Times

Trump inherits Reagan's wind - Washington Times:

"But even that difference is often overstated. While the media focuses on Mr. Trump’s hot condemnations of the evils arrayed against America, he is more often sunny and funny and entertaining. And, don’t forget, Reagan was no squishy cupcake when it came to enemies wishing harm to America.
When it comes to leadership in this big, nasty world, Mr. Trump is more like Reagan than any other president since."

Who Was the Biggest Mass Murderer in History? - Foundation for Economic Education
"Who was the biggest mass murderer in the history of the world?
Most people probably assume that the answer is Adolf Hitler, architect of the Holocaust.
Others might guess Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin, who may indeed have managed to kill even more innocent people than Hitler did, many of them as part of a terror famine that likely took more lives than the Holocaust.
But both Hitler and Stalin were outdone by Mao Zedong. 
From 1958 to 1962, his Great Leap Forward policy led to the deaths of up to 45 million people—easily making it the biggest episode of mass murder ever recorded..."
