Politi"Fact" has done the most important "fact" check of the new year.

Not a lizard. Not a liar.

81% of all political "jokes" on late night "comedy" shows targeted conservatives.

A new study from the Media Research Center found that 81% of all political jokes told on major late-night comedy shows in 2023 targeted conservatives.

The media watchdog analyzed each of the 9,518 political jokes told between six major daily late-night shows from January 3 through December 22, 2023, and found that 7,729 of them took aim at "someone or something on the right side of the political spectrum."

The shows analyzed were ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!," Comedy Central's "The Daily Show," NBC's "Late Night with Seth Meyers," NBC's "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon", CBS's "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and "The Late Late Show with James Corden" (until its cancelation in April).

MRC also put together a video of some of the "worst late-night moments of the year" to showcase several examples of late-night comedy's bias against conservatives.

Jimmy Kimmel had the highest rate of anti-conservative "jokes."

Wayne LaPierre has resigned as head of the NRA.

LaPierre cited health reasons for his resignation, effective Jan. 31, which NRA president Charles Cotton accepted. Head of General Operations Andrew Arulanandam will serve as the association's interim CEO and executive vice president, the release said.

The announcement comes before trial proceedings begin Monday in New York attorney general Letitia James's (D.) lawsuit against the NRA. James, who has accused the organization of diverting money to LaPierre and other leaders, was seeking LaPierre's removal, among other remedies. LaPierre stands as an individual defendant in the trial.

I missed this last week: The AP admitted that their article, claiming that conservatives had "discovered a new weapon against professors -- plagiarism," didn't meet AP's standards.

Well, you published it, assholes. It did meet your standards.

"Plagiarism charges downed Harvard's president. A conservative attack helped to fan the outrage," the AP's new headline reads.

"American higher education has long viewed plagiarism as among the most serious of offenses. Accusations of plagiarism have ruined the careers of academics and undergraduates alike," the AP's updated lede reads.

Gay resigned following several allegations of plagiarism on Tuesday, and claimed any attacks against her were fueled by "racial animus" in a letter announcing her decision.

...

"Reviews by conservative activists and then by a Harvard committee did find multiple shortcomings in Gay's academic citations. In dozens of instances first published by The Washington Free Beacon, a conservative website, Gay's work includes long stretches of prose that mirror language from other published works," the AP's original piece said.

A paragraph placed high-up in the updated version read, "Reviews by Harvard found multiple shortcomings in Gay's academic citations, including several instances of "duplicative language." While the university concluded the errors 'were not considered intentional or reckless' and didn't rise to misconduct, the allegations continued, with new ones as recently as Monday."

The updated report included a paragraph pinning the original allegations to "conservative activists," and cited the Washington Free Becaon's report on the allegations.

Some took issue with the AP's definition of "scalping" in the original report, which called out Christopher Rufo, who wrote "scalped" on social media after Gay announced her resignation.

The original report read,"As if Gay was a trophy of violence, invoking a gruesome practice taken up by white colonists who sought to eradicate Native Americans."

"On X, formerly Twitter, he wrote "SCALPED," as if Gay was a trophy of violence, invoking a gruesome practice taken up by white colonists who sought to eradicate Native Americans and also used by some tribes against their enemies," the updated version read.

...

Washington Post columnist Megan McArdle said the AP "buried the lede" and added, "the GOP stole this weapon from colleges, which for years punished people for plagiarism with little to no input from conservatives."


Billionaire former Harvard donor Bill Ackman is on the absolute warpath. In this very long tweet, he says he wants to use AI to start scanning the papers of all professors in the Ivy League and other elite universities to find plagiarism, and is willing to fund a company to do just that.

Bill Ackman @BillAckman

Last night, no one at @MIT had a good night's sleep.

Yesterday evening, shortly after I posted that we were launching a plagiarism review of all current MIT faculty, President Kornbluth, members of MIT's administration, and its board, I am sure that an audible collective gasp could be heard around the campus.

Why? Well, every faculty member knows that once their work is targeted by AI, they will be outed. No body of written work in academia can survive the power of AI searching for missing quotation marks, failures to paraphrase appropriately, and/or the failure to properly credit the work of others.

But it wasn't just the MIT faculty that did not sleep last night. The @Harvard faculty, its governing board members, and its administrative leadership did not sleep either. Because why would we stop at MIT?

Don't we have to do a deep dive into academic integrity at Harvard as well?

What about Yale, Princeton, Stanford, Penn, Dartmouth? You get the point.

While we are going to do a detailed review of plagiarism at MIT, we are not going to be the only ones who do so.

Every college and university in the world is going to have to do the same for themselves. They will do so because they will need to validate all plagiarism accusations, or someone else will do it for them.

The best approach, however, is probably to launch an AI startup to do this job (I would be interested in investing in one) as there is plenty of work to do, and many institutions won't have the resources to do it on their own. Perhaps more importantly, the donors are going to demand that the review is done by an independent third party.

For who today is going to trust higher education to review itself?

The Gestapo Media dug up flimsy claims of plagiarism against Bill Ackman's wife and then gave her 90 minutes to go through them all before publishing.

She has 15 patents. I don't think you can plagiarize a patent application. The Patent Office strictly scrutinizes all patent applications for novelty. If it's not new, you can't patent it, period.

He says he will not be bowed:

Bill Ackman @BillAckman

I will pursue these societally important issues including problems with how our media operates, the ideological take over of our education system, discrimination in all forms, and free speech to the end of the earth. It is the most important battle I have ever taken on.

And for investors who are concerned about my time management, other than words and ideas, the 'fuel' for my efforts comes from investment success.

Not that I wasn't incredibly motivated before, but if it is possible, I am even more motivated now.

And yes I am posting while on the elliptical for better time management.


US intelligence: Yes of course that hospital in Gaza is a Hamas terror base.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The U.S. is "confident" that Palestinian militant groups used Gaza's largest hospital to hold "at least a few" hostages seized during their bloody Oct. 7, 2023, attack and to house command infrastructure, an American intelligence assessment declassified Tuesday and shared by a U.S. official found.

The assessment offers the firmest U.S. support for Israeli claims about the Shifa hospital complex, which was raided by Israeli forces in November in an operation decried by global humanitarian organizations and some members of President Joe Biden' s party. Yet the information released doesn't fully back some of Israel's most significant allegations that the hospital served as the central node for activities by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad. The U.S. official shared the assessment on the condition of anonymity.

"The U.S. Intelligence Community is confident in its judgment on this topic and has independently corroborated information on HAMAS and PIJ's use of the hospital complex for a variety of purposes related to its campaign against Israel," the assessment states. It continues that it believes the groups "used the al-Shifa hospital complex and sites beneath it to house command infrastructure, exercise certain command and control activities, store some weapons, and hold at least a few hostages."

The U.S. believes that Hamas members evacuated days before Israel raided the complex on Nov. 15 and that they destroyed sensitive documents and electronics before Israeli troops entered the facility.

U.S. officials had previously pointed to classified intelligence, obtained independently from the Israelis, to offer support for Israel's raid.


PJ Media: Boy the media's doing a great job of hiding Biden's nuclear waste czar and felonious nonbinary Puppy Pervert Sam Brinton.

Fox News reported Sunday that Brinton, who "made headlines in mid-2022 after being appointed to lead nuclear waste policy at the Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy as a nonbinary gender-fluid person," has "avoided jail in two criminal cases, while a third criminal case and a related lawsuit remain ongoing."

...

Now imagine for a moment that Brinton were, instead of a "they/them" perversion enthusiast with a taste for women's clothes, a family-first, devout Christian Trump administration appointee who had likewise been accused of several thefts. Do you think that proceedings in his case would, in that scenario, have been delayed multiple times? Do you think that he would still be a free man with nothing but a 180-day suspended sentence levied against him? Neither do I.

The failure of Biden's Iran containment policy, as with his border and economic policy is being driven by catastrophic results and not as spuriously alleged, by 'bigotry'.


These disasters are being exploited by Republicans, conservatives, libertarians and even civilization's foes. But they are not its cause. Institutional incompetence and madness are primarily to blame. Reality is striking back.

Menendez, Santos, Hunter, Epstein, the porn shoot in the Senate, the emergence of weird cults in academia are symptoms of an underlying condition. Despite our denial the system is bound for the ER of history. Ignore the intellectuals who insist that we're alright. We're not.

Women boxers are standing up to rail against new rules which will permit men to physically pummel them and perhaps murder them in the ring.

As Bounding Into Sports recently reported, USA Boxing has announced a new "transgender policy" that allows biological males to compete against women in a combat sport. While there are some conditions on eligibility, the main, horrible point remains: the U.S. governing body for Olympic competition is now OK with men hitting women.

This must please Ray Rice.

The move faced vehement opposition from some of the most outspoken voices for protecting women's rights and women's sports, including Riley Gaines and Dana Loesch. But now, women's boxing champions are making their voices heard as well. And those voices are saying, "Hell no!"


...

As the example of Fallon Fox demonstrates, allowing this injustice in women's boxing will definitely result in women getting seriously injured, and possibly even killed.



The anti-white racist and pro-jihad Muslim extremist Mehdi Hassan has been fired by MSNBC. He's the Don LeMon of Islamists.

Mehdi Hasan announced Sunday he is leaving MSNBC entirely just weeks after it was announced his show was canceled.

Hasan told the audience during his final episode of "The Mehdi Hasan Show" that it was also his last day on MSNBC.

...

"Yes, I've decided to leave. To be clear, I am so proud, so, so proud of what we've achieved on this show on this network, and I can't thank you enough for tuning in and for your support and for your feedback. But as they say, new year, new plans."

...

Hasan has recently come under fire for his takes on the Israel-Hamas war and has frequently blamed Israel for the rise of Hamas.

Back in 2009 Hasan called non-Muslims "animals" and compared homosexuals to "pedophiles" and "sexual deviants."

You can see Mehdi Hassan saying that non-Muslims "live like cattle" and branding gays as pedophiles, here.


Christopher Rufo always says he went to the Harvard Extension School. This claim they're making, that he tries to "trick" people into thinking he went to the "Real Harvard," is something they just made up in their stupid pointed heads.

Harvard just doesn't have prestige enough any longer for people to lie to associate themselves with it.

Andy Ngo has outed the woman who insanely accused McDonalds' of a Zionist Conspiracy over their blue and white burger wrappers, which she claimed was obviously a propaganda campaign in favor of Israel.

The video, stripped of context and recently reposted across multiple social media platforms like TikTok and Twitter, was originally posted on Instagram on Oct. 19, 2023 by a Chicago Palestinian-American woman running the business account "@makeupbylaureen." The account is run by Laureen M. Zureikat, a 47-year-old woman based out of Park Ridge, Ill. who was previously known as Laureen Zanayed.

What do you guys think of outing this woman? I'm not really comfortable with it.

It is good to know that we are continuing to import people into this country who believe in bizarre tribalist conspiracy theories and who wish to turn America into the same bloody battlefield that they fled.

Come to the US, turn it into the same backwards violent shithole you left.
