BIDEN WATCH: 9.3.22 - FBI and CIA credibility

 FBI and CIA credibility - Bill Wilson – www.dailyjot.com An August poll of 1,335 adults by Technometrica Institute of Policy and Politics (TIPP) indicated 79% of Americans believe PresidentDonald Trump likely would have won reelection if voters had known the truth about Hunter Biden’s laptop—that it was real and not “Russian disinformation,” as intelligence officials aligned with Joe Biden falsely led the public to believe. TIPP revealed thatthe vast majority of those following the issue said they believe that the laptop is real, while only 11 percent still believe it was created by Russia. On October 19, 2020, 50 current and former CIA operatives wrote a public letter saying that the Hunter Bidenlaptop story was a Russian operation. The media believed them. Censorship followed. Technometrica President Raghavan Mayur said, “Terming the laptop ‘disinformation’ by the FBI, Intelligence Community, Congress,and the Biden campaign, along with Big Tech, impacted voters. A significant majority—78 percent—believe that access to the correct information could have been critical to their decision at the polls.” He said that in fact, 47 percent said that knowing beforethe election that the laptop contents were real and not “disinformation” would have changed their voting decision—including more than two-thirds (71 percent) of Democrats. The poll also found that 51 percent give the media failing grades (D or F) for theircoverage of the topic of the laptop. Can anyone say “Complicit.” Enter Meta/Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg who let it slip on the Joe Rogan Show that the FBI was signaling to media giants thatthey should be careful of information on Hunter Biden’s laptop. He said, “The background here is the FBI I think basically came to some folks on our team [and] were like, ‘Hey, just so you know, you should be on high alert. We thought that there was a lotof Russian propaganda in the 2016 election, we have it on notice that basically there’s about to be some kind of dump similar to that, so just be vigilant.’” This prompted the FBI to issue a statement saying “routinely notifies U.S. private sector entities,including social media providers, of potential threat information…to help them protect their platforms and customers from abuse by foreign malign influence actors.” Translated in practical terms, this means censor information. Just the mere insinuation by the FBI that they want companies to “protect” customers from abuse by foreign actors would generatea massive censorship of anything that smacked of what the FBI was against—in this case, the Hunter Biden Laptop story. Who would want to invite the FBI or CIA wrath upon their company by carrying stories that these deep state agencies would not want them tocarry? Well, these billionaire kids and leftist media were complicit in the deep state’s plan to bury the truth. And they remain so today. John 3:20 says, “For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should beexposed.” Now the truth is coming to light. The FBI and CIA are shown to have conspired to undermine a sitting president. Those affording the CIA and FBI credibility are practicing…say it with me…Stupidocrisy. ------------------------------------ Let�s Talk About The Current State Of Public Education In The United States- by Michael Snyder - http://endoftheamericandream.com/lets-talk-about-the-current-state-of-public-education-in-the-united-states/ America�s public schools have never been worse than they are right now. Test scores are falling, and many of our kids cannot read, write, speak or do basic math effectively. Asa result, each level of education has had to be �dumbed down�, because each year the next incoming class has been woefully unprepared at the previous level. This is one of the big reasons why many tests these days require only answers that are true/false ormultiple choice. Our kids are simply not equipped to handle much more than that. Sadly, this is true even at the college level. I spent eight years earning three degrees at a couple of the best public institutions in America, and the level of education thatI received was exceedingly poor. Even at that time, the family pet could have passed most of the �college courses� that I was forced to endure. Of course things have only gotten far worse since then. This week, we learned that test scores for our 9-year-olds have declined dramatically since the beginning of the pandemic� Test scores for the country�s 9-year-olds suffered significant declines early this year when compared to early 2020, according to federal data released Thursday that willreinforce the worries of educators and politicians over Covid-19�s impact on children. Students who took National Assessment of Educational Progress long-term trend tests this past winter scored an average of seven points lower in math and five points lowerin reading when compared to 9-year-olds who took the same federal exam in 2020 � just before the pandemic was declared a global health emergency and physical classrooms shuttered. Those results mean notably fewer students could carry out simple reading tasks or understand texts, or handle arithmetic and early math problem solving. Whatever we are doing, it is clearly not working. Over the past couple of years, there has been a mass exodus out of the public schools. And that is actually a really good thing, because we have gotten to a point where homeschoolers substantially outperform public school students on standardized tests. There has also been a mass exodus of good teachers, and as a result many public schools around the nation are now facing severe staffing shortages. For example, in Arizona they have actually been importing teachers from the Philippines in order to plug the gaps� Situated between Phoenix and Tucson, Casa Grande has struggled to find teachers for years, hiring roughly 30 from the Philippines each year to fill the gap. But that alarmingtrend is hitting a more dire point. Jennifer Kortsen, a district spokesperson, says, in her 29 years here, she�s never seen a shortage like this. �I�ve never had a school year start where we�ve had so many vacancies, and it�s really sad,� Kortsen said. �We have it posted, we�ve gone to job fairs, and there�s simplyno teachers out there to be had right now.� After two years of weathering pandemic health concerns, learning loss, and tense public scrutiny, teacher burnout is surging nationwide. But this is what we get for allowing the left to completely take over our system of public education. They have done things their way, and now we have a giant mess on our hands. Instead of teaching our kids to read, write, speak and do basic math, these leftists are relentlessly pushing their twisted social agenda. Let me give you a perfect example of what I am talking about. In California, one school district is now teaching high school students that there are eight different genderidentities and 10 different sexual orientations� A California district called Newport-Mesa�s health education textbooks claimed there are over 10 sexual orientations and eight genders, Fox News Digital has learned. A textbook ordered by the Newport-Mesa district called �Comprehensive Health Skills for High School� claims that there are eight different gender identities, including androgynous,bygender, gender-nonconforming, gender questioning and nonbinary. The Newport-Mesa school district�s curriculum also said that there were 10 different sexual orientations including androsexual, polysexual, skoliosexual, demisexual and gynesexual. Are you kidding me? I had no idea what �skoliosexual� means, and so I had to look it up. Apparently it means �attraction to people who are transgender or nonbinary�. When they were asked about the textbooks, this is how the school district responded� Newport-Mesa Unified School District responded to the report, stating �We follow the state-adopted standards for health education, which includes sexual health. We use a state-approvedhealth curriculum with select modules, taught by credentialed teachers.� In other words, they are saying that this is perfectly okay because the same curriculum is being used all over the state. Isn�t that wonderful? And as this radical social agenda is being pushed, there is often a tremendous amount of pressure for students to conform. For instance, one professor at Texas A&M University is offering an extra credit boost if every single student in the class �properly wears a surgical grade mask during theentire class session�� A Texas A&M University- Texarkana fall course syllabus, obtained by Campus Reform, shows an instructor is offering students 15% extra credit if the entire class wears a surgicalface mask for the whole lecture period. �If the entire face to face class � everyone � properly wears a surgical grade mask during the entire class session (over the nose and mouth, not taking it off to talk) there[will] be a 15% extra credit boost (1 percentage point per week). If 19 out of 20 students do it? There will be no extra credit,� the American Film History syllabus reads. I was stunned to hear that this is happening in the state of Texas. But of course the far left has taken over our public universities even in the reddest of the red states. And in the blue states, the level of indoctrination has reached extremely bizarre levels. At the University of Michigan, there are now 126 diversity bureaucrats, and they collectively make 15.6 million dollars each year� How is this even possible? This is one of the reasons why tuition costs have soared into the stratosphere, and most Americans have no idea that this is going on. Of course many parents will just continue to ship their kids off to such schools so that they can get a �good education�. One of the themes that I keep writing about over and over again is the fact that our culture is rotting right in front of our eyes. And our absolutely horrible system of public education is one of the biggest reasons why it is rotting. This is a crisis that we must address, but right now there is not much short-term hope on the horizon.
