‘They’ Is Madness
Ok, this is nuts. I was listening to my local NPR station this morning. (Yeah, I know.) It did a story on the Winchester Mystery House–the big creepy old house built by the widow of the heir to the famous rifle company. The reporter mentioned the theory that Sarah Winchester’s building obsessions were rooted in her deep personal losses early in life, most particularly, the loss of her only child. But in describing the death of that child, the reporter said, “they died in infancy.” My brain froze for a second. “They” died? Hadn’t the reporter just said “only” child?” Did she say “twins,” and I missed it? Then the fog lifted, this is trans-ideology creeping in.
Well, I had to look it up. Sarah Winchester’s only child, the one who died at six weeks, was a girl, Annie Pardee Winchester, named after her deceased aunt.
Harvard ‘Doxxing’ Truck

I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, it doesn’t seem right if people have their names publicized who don’t want them publicized. Yet the students signed public petitions, and the far-left campus newspaper published their names, so I feel they hardly have grounds for complaint. Are they upset because they are realizing that they became open supporters of terrorism by signing?

Join Jim and Greg as they serve up three good martinis to close out the week! First, they cheer CNN contributor Scott Jennings for calmly but firmly confronting American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten over her absurd lies that she was pushing harder than anyone to reopen schools in the midst of the pandemic when she was loudly persistent in keeping them closed. They also welcome the news that West Virginia GOP Gov. Jim Justice is running for U.S. Senate in 2024, giving Republicans their best chance yet to knock off Sen. Joe Manchin or maybe even convince him not to run for re-election. Finally, they welcome the news that Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel is planning to sit out the 2024 cycle after backing and bankrolling multiple weak candidates in the midterms.
