“Dixie-cide”
The term “Dixie-cide” came to mind, for some unknown reason, early this morning while I was still in bed. It was too early to get up for the day, and, being a night owl (when I do much of my research and writing) I am not noted as an early riser.
Wanting to assure myself that this term was not original with me, I checked it out on the internet and found that this term had been used in an excellent article by Dissident Mama back in 2017 that was published by the Abbeville Institute. I don’t recall seeing the article at the time, but with my faulty memory, I may have and just don’t remember.
I’ve read some of Dissident Mama’s articles on various topics over the years and have usually found myself pretty much in agreement with the sentiments expressed in them. We are, as some would say, pretty much on the same page. So as I went back and read the Dixie-cide article I had to agree with the sentiments expressed therein.

The New Jewish Exodus, by Lewis Regenstein
Via Billy
This Passover, it would not surprise me if some Jews left a place at their table for Elijah – Elijah Cummings that is, the House Democrat who chaired the recent hearings where President Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, spilled the beans.
Many Jews have traditionally been attracted to liberal, leftist and “progressive” causes and leaders, having voted for Democrats at rates of 70 to 79 percent in recent national elections. But there is now a movement afoot to make an “Exodus” (or “Jexodus” as some millennials call it) from the Democrat Party, prompted by its welcoming into its ranks anti-Semites, haters of Israel, and supporters of Louis Farrakhan. Not just low-ranking radicals like representatives Ilhan Omar (Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.), but until recently Deputy Democratic National Committee head Keith Ellison, a former associate of Farrakhan.

Liberals leaving the Democrat Party don’t have to become Trump supporters or even join the Republicans.

Right to Know: A Historical Guide to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
Via Alex
Information has taken on a whole new meaning in the digital age, a time when sensitive data is either too easily accessible or not accessible enough. This issue of access to information encompasses fundamental human rights – specifically the freedom of speech as well as the right to privacy.
Because it’s a primary means of maintaining transparency and accountability within government policies and decision-making in both the United States and around the globe, information is more valuable than ever to both government agencies and our individual lives. This guide takes an in-depth look at FOIA history and the importance of exercising your right to know.

Sen. Jim Perry: NC state audit reveals $800 million in overpayments for Medicaid
Via Cousin John
A recent audit of how the how the state of North Carolina managed Medicaid payments over the last three years has left me shaking my head in disbelief.
The audit, conducted by Democratic state auditor Beth Wood and the subject of a recent presentation to stakeholders, concludes that the state Department of Health and Human Services massively overpaid providers, failed to monitor whether Medicaid beneficiaries were even eligible for the program, and missed hundreds of thousands of dollars of Medicaid funds spent on luxury resorts and lobbyists.
Forget, for one moment, the idea about placing blame, or criticizing DHHS. Let’s focus on understanding the issue.

Yesterday’s Country: Not to Worry, They Can’t Innovate
Conclusion
The list could be extended at length to cover numbers of patents awarded, scientific papers published, quantum communications, investment in education and technological research and development, supercomputers and chip design and many other things. Beijing is clearly bent on Making China Great Again–as why should it not? Meanwhile America focuses more on transgender bathrooms and whether Bruce Jenner is a girl than on its endless and draining wars. China sends its brightest to the world’s best technical school while America makes its universities into playpens for the mildly retarded. The country crumbles but spends drunkenly of defective fighter planes it doesn’t need in the first place.
This won’t work a whole lot longer.

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis Signs Gun Confiscation Bill: More than 50% of County Sheriff's will Refuse to Enforce it.
Via John
Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) signed into law on Friday the Democrats’ gun confiscatory Red Flag legislation.
The legislation allows courts to issue orders for the confiscation of individuals’ guns.
Tribune Ledger News reported that the legislation, House Bill 1177, did not garner a single Republican vote. And more than half of Colorado’s county governments have voiced opposition to the bill, making clear they have no plans to enforce it.

Update 2: Ever careful to watch for false-flags and conspiracy theory concerns, video is emerging of a Gilets-Jaunes in black clothes at one of the two towers half an hour after the start of the fire at Notre-Dame...
One definite way to disenfranchise the yellow vests - as they crush French autocracy - would be to set them up as the fall-guys for this national disaster. Surely that is not possible!
