A New ‘Broken Windows’ Discovery? Violence Linked to COVID Relief Fraud

Posted on | September 16, 2023 | Comments Off on A New ‘Broken Windows’ Discovery? Violence Linked to COVID Relief Fraud

A very interesting article from WBAL-TV:

Maryland’s U.S. attorney found a big connection between violent crime and COVID-19 pandemic fraud.
Maryland U.S. Attorney Erek Barron told the 11 News I-Team that his office found that 60% of violent criminals are also committing some type of COVID-19 fraud, and because of that, his office investigates every single violent crime target to see whether they’ve committed pandemic fraud.
Barron told the I-Team that the 20% reduction in homicides and the 10% reduction in nonfatal shootings in Baltimore City can both be explained by his office prosecuting COVID-19 fraud. Barron said that if his office can’t lock up violent offenders for those crimes, there’s a good chance his office can prosecute them for pandemic fraud.
Barron said the bottom line is to get violent criminals off the streets by any legal means necessary.
“They should know it’s a top priority for our office, and a big enough priority that we’ve also leveraged it as part of our violent crime strategy here in Baltimore City,” Barron told the I-Team. “And, you know what? Those who are also doing that and committing violent offenses in our communities, they should be held accountable doubly.”
When asked abouty the I-Team’s ongoing reporting about the now 280 Maryland residents who have contacted 11 News to report their Medicare cards have been charged for COVID-19 tests they never ordered, Barron said he couldn’t discuss any potential investigations.
However, he was able to be more candid about the work his office does investigating vehicle thefts, telling the I-Team that his office has found two big hot spots for car thefts in Maryland are in Baltimore City and Prince George’s County.
“Any case that meets the federal statute, we will prosecute. But even outside of that, we’ve been involved in helping to put together a joint local, state, federal task forces. So, there’s one here in Baltimore City and Baltimore County, and there’s also a task force working in Prince George’s County and the D.C. border,” Barron said.
“Our violent crime investigations, we found that upwards of 60% of those have at least a preliminary indication of also being involved in some form of pandemic fraud,” Barron said.
By prosecuting those violent criminals for pandemic fraud, Barron said it’s “getting violent criminals off our streets by any legal means necessary,” and he said those efforts have contributed to a 20% drop in Baltimore homicides and a 10% drop in nonfatal shootings compared to 2022.
“It’s become an automatic part of our violent crime strategy,” Barron said.

This illustrates something about the “broken windows” theory of crime prevention pioneered by George Kelling and James Q. Wilson: Criminals are not specialists. That is to say, the drug dealer is often also the rapist, and the car thief is also often the armed robber. Habitual criminals have a general disposition toward lawlessness and antisocial behavior. This insight was proven conclusively in New York City when Bill Bratton launched a crackdown on subway “fare beaters,” miscreants who would avoid paying fares by jumping over turnstiles at subway stations. Once the transit cops started arresting the people engaged in this misdemeanor crime, they were shocked to discover that dozens of the turnstile jumpers were carrying illegal weapons or had outstanding felony warrants for serious crimes including aggravated assault. Simply by enforcing laws against “minor” crimes, you end up arresting lots of dangerous felons, and why? Because people who don’t obey laws against robbery and murder also don’t obey laws against less serious offenses.

Sometimes when a criminal gets shot by cops, and the media does one of those “family demands answers” stories, the situation will be framed as a black man getting killed by police because of a “routine traffic stop.” And then the police bodycam video is released, and we discover not only that the suspect tried to run over a cop, but also that they had the proverbial criminal record “as long as your arm,” they were a felon in possession of a firearm, with outstanding warrants, etc. In other words, the “routine traffic stop” — pulled over for expired tags or failure to signal a turn, whatever — was simply the occasion by which the criminal came in contact with police. The media, amplifying the “family demands answers” message, are obscuring the basic truth involved, i.e., criminals don’t obey traffic laws. This is directly related to what the Maryland U.S. Attorney has discovered about the perpetrators of COVID relief fraud. These swindlers are also implicated in many of the violent crimes that have plagued Baltimore, so when you put them in prison on fraud charges, there are fewer shootings in the city. The determination to “get violent criminals off the streets by any legal means necessary” reflects what I’ve been saying for years: Crime is a people problem. Identify the criminals and lock them up, and you solve the problem. It doesn’t matter what charges send them to prison. What matters is getting them off the streets.

CNN’s Fake ‘Fact Check’

Posted on | September 16, 2023 | Comments Off on CNN’s Fake ‘Fact Check’

My friend Matt Vespa at Townhall highlights how CNN, in its role as Democratic Party propaganda machine, produced a disgustingly deceptive “fact check” of Joe Biden’s foreign influence-peddling scandal.

As I’ve said before of the evidence in the case, it’s a smoking gun next to a bloody corpse. If I could get in the face of any of these CNN propagandists, I’d destroy them with a single question: Why did these “shell companies” exist? The only answer an honest person can give is, “To conceal the bribery money.” If the millions of dollars received from foreigners by Hunter Biden and his associates had any legitimate purpose — if it were something other than bribery — they would have no need to hide it. And what was it that Hunter Biden and his associates were selling? What service did they have to offer, except the influence of the then-Vice President? Isn’t the nature of this arrangement self-evident in the fact that Ukraine prosecutor Viktor Shokin, who was investigating Hunter’s client Burisma for corruption, was fired in 2016 on the demand of Joe Biden? Joe Biden publicly bragged about this.

REMEMBER THIS?

When Joe Biden OPENLY Bragged About Getting A Ukrainian Prosecutor Fired

BIDEN: “I said, ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re NOT getting the money.’ Well, son of a b*tch. He got fired.” pic.twitter.com/rT2CBOPEMB

Is everyone at CNN so stupid that they are incapable of adding 2+2 and finding the sum of 4? Or do they think their audience is that stupid?

But the last-place cable news network — which routinely gets beaten by in the ratings by Paw Patrol cartoons on Nickelodeon — is just one of many media operations engaged in trying to help the Biden administration shut down a congressional impeachment inquiry. Do a Google search for “without evidence + impeachment” and you’ll see how obediently they’re following White House orders:

The Biden White House sent a letter to its media allies Wednesday, directing them to intensify their “scrutiny” of House Republicans after Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced an impeachment inquiry into the Biden family’s influence-peddling operation.
“It’s time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies. Impeachment is grave, rare, and historic. The Constitution requires ‘treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors,” Ian Sams, a spokesperson for the White House Counsel’s Office, wrote in the letter to top U.S. news executives, according to CNN. “After nearly 9 months of investigating, House Republicans haven’t been able to turn up any evidence of the President doing anything wrong,” Sams added inaccurately.
In reality, Republican investigators have produced a mountain of evidence in the form of bank records, suspicious activity reports, wire transfers, text messages, whatsApp messages, emails, voicemails, photos, along with the testimonies of whistleblowers, and Hunter Biden’s former business partners, not to mention Joe Biden’s admission on tape that he got the Ukrainian prosecutor general fired by withholding $1 billion in US loan guarantees in exchange for his ouster.
Democrats, on the other hand, launched an impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump in 2019 based on the complaint of one then-anonymous Democrat operative (who was aware of Biden’s corruption) who blew the whistle after Trump asked Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to look into the Biden family’s shady business dealings in a phone call.

The media’s Trump Derangement Syndrome pandemic was not cured when Biden became president. Instead, we’re living through something akin to the Stalin era, where the purged Trotsky became a propaganda bogeyman used to frighten the public and justify repression.

The Jan. 6 protesters are sentenced to federal prison, Biden’s opponents are censored on social media platforms, and dishonest spin about the Biden bribery scandal is published as “fact checks,” all because liberals live in dread of what is to them the worst possible nightmare, the return of President Trump. How can they cope with the cognitive dissonance caused by having to pretend to be independent truth-tellers, when they know damned well that they’re telling lies on behalf of a corrupt old fraud like Joe Biden? No intelligent person believes a word they say.

And as for Joe Biden, he is GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY!

Unwanted and Unloved: Younger Americans Are Facing a Lonely Future

Posted on | September 15, 2023 | Comments Off on Unwanted and Unloved: Younger Americans Are Facing a Lonely Future

When my children were little, I quickly discovered a cause for concern that most people never seem to notice: What was the point of raising my children properly, if everybody else was raising their children wrong?

Eventually, you see, my sons and daughters would grow up and find spouses, and what were the chances they could find a decent spouse who shared the values with which we tried to imbue our children? Could it be that, in striving to raise our kids properly, we were at risk of making them misfits, who couldn’t relate to their peers? Perhaps it was from consideration of such factors that I first became interested in what is known as “The Culture War.” Sarah Hoyt at Instanpundit recently linked to an article by Tom Knighton, in which he contemplates what he calls “a fraught landscape for young men,” the root cause of which is the so-called “empowerment” of women in our society. Knighton first cites further evidence (as if more evidence were needed) that “our educational system actually favors women in many ways,” creating “a situation where young men are disfavored and operating at a disadvantage from day one,” so that “it’s not surprising that women graduate college at a much higher rate than men.” Knighton then references an article by Olivia Reingold in the Free Press about “a growing number of young men who are withdrawing from the dating pool”:

More than six in ten men aged 18 to 29 are now single, up from about five in ten in 2019, according to data from Pew Research Center. Respondents give a range of reasons for their singlehood, including having “more important priorities,” the fact they “just like being single,” or that they’ve gotten “too old” to keep trying. . . .
“The traditional markers of adulthood like buying a home, completing college, and getting married, are all becoming far harder to achieve,” [sociologist Jess] Carbino said. “Many men perceive themselves to be far less marriageable. And in turn, many women perceive them to be less marriageable, too.”
She says it’s never been easy to be Joe Average on the dating market but things are rougher now that the average man’s salary, which hovers just above $61,000 in the U.S., is hardly enough to afford rent in most major American cities. Yet still, many women hold out for men who make not just as much or more than they do, but are also wildly attractive.
While the sexual revolution freed women from depending on men for income or stability, it also means they can privilege more “frivolous” qualities in a mate, says Rob Henderson, a psychology PhD with a Substack on social mores.
“People used to care a bit more deeply about moral character and hard work, and whether the person was an ethical and upstanding citizen,” he tells me. “And now, you don’t have to worry about that quite as much. And you can sort of focus on things that are just, like, more immediate, like attraction.”
The result? Men at the tip-top of the dating pool get everything. And the men who don’t have it all get nothing.

This is a blunt assessment of the real-life impact of women’s “empowerment.” Perceiving themselves to hold all the cards — to possess every advantage in life, compared to men — college-educated women feel that male companionship, per se, is without value. Such women are, therefore, only interested in high-status men who are wealthy and/or extraordinarily attractive. This is the toxic stew of contemporary dating culture that so-called “red pill” analysts like Rollo Tomassi describe.

Most parents of my generation are clueless about the problems facing their children in the world of 21st-century relationships — and their kids know it, so that most young people never listen to parental advice on such matters. Why should they? All the moral and cultural norms that existed 30 or 40 years ago have been destroyed by the subversive forces of “progress,” to say nothing of how technology has altered the dating world in the era of Instagram, Tinder, etc. Adults who came of age in the 1980s or ’90s generally cannot understand or relate to the problems affecting young people, and if I have any greater understanding of these problems than most of my generational peers, it’s simply because (a) it’s part of my job, as a journalist, to pay attention to cultural trends, and (b) having raised six kids, I’ve had an unusually large opportunity to observe changes in the way young people view relationships.

Remember the case of Mackenzie Lueck, the University of Utah sorority sister who was murdered by a guy she met via “sugar daddy” dating sites? That a college girl from a respectable middle-class background should have been engaged in such behavior was shocking, but her friends refused to condemn her behavior, saying that criticism was “hurtful.”

Hey, kids, you know what’s more hurtful than criticism? Getting murdered because you were whoring around. But these “empowered” young women, like Mackenzie Lueck’s Alpha Chi Omega sorority sisters, have been raised with the attitude that they should be exempt from criticism, no matter what they do. Feminism has become a sort of carte blanche, an license to do as they please, with the assurance that any negative consequences of their behavior are not their fault.

Women are always blame-free, not responsible for (entirely predictable) outcomes of their ill-advised decisions. Remember Ella Dawson, the young feminist who made her name a synonym for herpes?

“The fact is the ‘respectable girl from a nice family in Connecticut’ ship has already sailed.”
— Ella Dawson, July 2014

Why would a woman deliberately publicize the fact that she’s infected with an incurable sexually transmitted disease? To reduce “stigma,” was the defense offered by Dawson and her feminist comrades, as if there were no reason why herpes should be stigmatized. The syllogism of “empowerment” tells such women that anything they want to do is OK, including whoring around until you catch herpes, and therefore the predictable consequences should never be viewed negatively.

Being a “respectable girl from a nice family” is wrong, Ella Dawson is saying. Young women should never even think about trying to be “respectable” or “nice,” because this would prevent them from becoming “empowered” (and herpes-infected) like her. It is not enough that she is free to be a self-proclaimed “slut.” Everyone else must be slutty, too.

How mainstream is this sort of feminism? Ella Dawson’s immoral message was endorsed in 2016 by none other than Hillary Clinton:

When leading public figures are encouraging and praising such behavior by young women, what are the chances that your son can find a “respectable girl from a nice family” to marry? Even if your son is the kind of high-status male who doesn’t have a problem attracting female companionship — tall, handsome, athletic, extroverted, etc. — there simply are not many young women nowadays who have anything like good moral values. Young women are encouraged to be selfish, materialistic pleasure-seekers, the type of immature hedonists that no intelligent parent would want their son to marry. Just look at Susanna Gibson, the Democrat running for a seat in the Virginia House of Delegates who whored herself out in “HotWifeExperience” videos.

In a world where women are encouraged in such behavior — Gibson is endorsed by Virginia’s former governor, Richmond’s mayor and U.S. Rep. Abigail Spanberger, among others — is anyone really surprised to learn that “a growing number of young men . . . are withdrawing from the dating pool”? Love becomes impossible, when people become unlovable. Doesn’t love require respect and admiration? How could any man respect or admire Mrs. “HotWifeExperience”? Clearly her husband (who participated in those videos with her) has no respect for her.

When people cease even to try behaving in such a manner as to deserve respect — when they not only act immorally, but openly encourage and celebrate immorality — what are the ultimate consequences? An increase in loneliness is certainly among these consequences.

In this degenerate age, simply being a good person is an act of rebellion. Fortunately for my kids, they come from a long line of rebels. And, strange to say, all my kids are quite popular. Weird how that works.

You Stay Classy, Virginia Democrats!

Posted on | September 13, 2023 | Comments Off on You Stay Classy, Virginia Democrats!

The best part of this scandal involving Susanna Gibson, a Democrat running for a seat in the Virginia House of Delegates (and there are many good parts) is that Luke Rosiak of the Daily Wire apparently got paid to watch the candidate’s “HotWifeExperience” videos:

A Democrat candidate for state office in Virginia appears to have been raising money for a “good cause” by performing graphic sex acts online, where she told viewers she liked “being choked” and said they could watch her urinate for the right price, according to material reviewed by The Daily Wire.

(“Material reviewed” = watching porn, because “research.”)

Susanna Gibson, who is running for a seat in the narrowly divided Virginia statehouse, was as recently as last year posting as “HotWifeExperience” on the website Chaturbate, where men could pay tokens to get her to perform specific sex acts. In one video recorded shortly after she launched her campaign last year, she told her husband, “I’ll let you f— me in the a– doggy style in a private room if someone wants to pay. That’s the deal.”
In another video, she appears to say that for the right price, viewers could watch her urinate. “Y’all can watch me pee if you tip me and some tokens,” she said. “Again, I’m raising money for a good cause.”
“I like being choked. I like being hit. I do,” she said in one video posted exactly a year ago, on September 11, 2022. . . .

(A video which Luke Rosiak got paid to watch.)

In the videos, she appears to be filmed with her husband, lawyer John David Gibson, who ensured that the raunchiest acts were reserved for the biggest spendings, saying “no anal outside of private.”

(Democrats have such high standards, you see.)

The Washington Post first reported the story on Monday afternoon, and The Daily Wire independently obtained the videos.

Gibson did not return a request for comment from The Daily Wire asking whether the “good cause” was her Senate campaign. But she appears to acknowledge to The Washington Post that the videos are authentic, claiming that they are “an illegal invasion of my privacy designed to humiliate me and my family.”

(When you post videos of yourself to the Internet, how is it an “invasion of privacy” for people to watch them, as Luke Rosiak did?)

Though she posted the videos online for her nearly 6,000 followers on Chaturbate, she now claims it to be a “sex crime” to shed light on the existence of her account.
“My political opponents and their Republican allies have proven they’re willing to commit a sex crime to attack me and my family because there’s no line they won’t cross to silence women when they speak up,” Gibson told the Washington Post.

We don’t yet know whether the videos will hurt or help the chances of Mrs. “HotWifeExperience” getting elected, because as Democrats have demonstrated, they can manufacture 81 million votes for a senile dimwit notorious for plagiarism, corruption and groping little girls. Shouldn’t be too difficult for them to steal a mere state legislative election.

My podcast partner John Hoge offers some free public relations advice: “Don’t put anything on the Internet that you don’t want other people to find.” As for me, I’m still wondering how I can get one of those Daily Wire jobs so I can be an investigative journalist who gets paid to watch “HotWifeExperience” like my new hero, Luke Rosiak.

She said Repubs were being creepy by wanting to monitor what teachers do in the classroom. She also said

“Oh God I want to f—ing get railroaded by all of you… I like being choked”
