Monday Overnight Open Thread (1/17/22)

Quote I

The reckoning begins in the House. We must have our vengeance, both to satisfy the reasonable craving for justice on the part of the base and to teach the Democrats that there is a price for crossing us. Kurt Schlichter

Quote II

"It's devastating and heartbreaking. People are saying let nature take its course, but when it's right in the middle of a city, in a public area, it's kind of a big pill to swallow, to just kind of let it go, that it's a normal, natural occurrence.Maryrose Carson

Quote III

“Their absence will be a significant loss to the mission of the Office of Attorney General,” Charlotte Gomer

We constantly hear about the need for masks, for social distancing and the various pricks when it comes to avoiding the Kung Flu. We certainly don't hear as much when it comes to treating the Kung Flu.

A doctor in Maine wants to treat her patients with Kung Flu. Per the powers that be in Maine, she's treating her patients incorrectly and will be made to care.

Doctor loses license, ordered to have psych eval for Ivermectin scripts, sharing Covid ‘misinformation’

A 25-year Maine doctor has had her license temporarily suspended and been ordered to submit to a psychological evaluation for the alleged offenses of treating her patients with Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin, in addition to sharing so-called “misinformation” about the coronavirus and its associated vaccines.

The State of Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine issued the 30-day suspension (minimum) last Tuesday on the grounds that Dr. Meryl J. Nass’ medical services would constitute “an immediate jeopardy to the health and physical safety of the public.”

I hope Dr. Nass has a damn fine attorney on retainer.

Anne Frank betrayal suspect identified after 77 years

A new investigation has identified a suspect who may have betrayed Anne Frank and her family to the Nazis.

The Jewish diarist died in a Nazi concentration camp in 1945, aged 15, after two years in hiding.

Her diary, published after her death, is the most famous first-hand account of Jewish life during the war.

A team including an ex-FBI agent said Arnold van den Bergh, a Jewish figure in Amsterdam, probably "gave up" the Franks to save his own family.

The team, made up of historians and other experts, spent six years using modern investigative techniques to crack the "cold case". That included using computer algorithms to search for connections between many different people, something that would have taken humans thousands of hours.

Van den Bergh had been a member of Amsterdam's Jewish Council, a body forced to implement Nazi policy in Jewish areas. It was disbanded in 1943, and its members were dispatched to concentration camps.
