BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY
Hopeful Virus News
By Mike Huckabee
Dr. Marty Makary, a professor at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and Bloomberg School of Public Health, predicts that at the current rate of infections/recoveries plus vaccinations, the US could reach herd immunity to COVID-19 by April, so we can get back to normal within a few months.
I predict that this means President Biden will call for lifting the mask mandates and reopening schools as early as 2025.
FEMA Helps And Texans Make Do
By Mike Huckabee
FEMA is getting emergency backup power to Texas by sending the state diesel generators and, for some reason, not windmills and solar panels. Guess they just hate the Earth.
Of course, being Texans, many of them are powering their homes with their Ford F-150 pickup trucks with built-in mobile generators. Try that with a Nissan Leaf.
Democrats Wasting Time
By Mike Huckabee
Proving once again that even after more than two years in control of the House, Democrats still have no idea how to lead, a group of them are wasting time on a bill of attainder targeted at preventing President Trump from having any legacy at all, including banning him from being buried in Arlington National Cemetery. This is allegedly because he’s guilty of inciting an insurrection which the evidence shows he didn’t incite, for which he has not been found guilty in any court, and for which he was “impeached” and found not guilty.
Hilariously, they’re calling this the “No Glory for Hate Act,” even though, as Matt Pollard notes at the link, it’s born entirely out of their own four-year mindless hatred of Donald Trump. There are some other reactions there you’ll also enjoy reading.
Since there’s no way this will ever pass the Senate, or if it did, hold up to a court challenge, it’s really just yet another way to waste the people's time on the Dems’ never-ending anti-Trump hissy fit. But when you look at some of the legislation they actually are working on passing, I say, keep it up! The best thing that could happen for America and its people would be for the Democrats to piddle away the next two years on their Ahab-like pursuit of Trump instead of actually inflicting their toxic agenda on the rest of us.

Gun Propaganda
By Mike Huckabee
If you’ve been stuck at home due to the pandemic or the winter storm, watching a lot of cop, doctor and legal shows on the TV networks, you might have noticed a bizarre trend in many of them: plots that incorporate false narratives taken straight out of gun control pamphlets. Gun researcher John Lott has been watching this propaganda disguised as entertainment so you won’t have to.
For instance, shootings would be so much easier to solve if only we had a national gun owner registry (because most shootings are done by law-abiding gun owners who follow the rules, not criminals and gangbangers using black market weapons, right?) Or the heroes have to deal with America’s #1 terrorist threat: mass shootings by white supremacists with AR-15 automatic machine guns (no part of that is true: 72% of mass shooters have no political affiliations; left- and rightwing extremists commit about the same percentage of mass shootings, both well below the 10% committed by Islamic extremists; the AR-15 is a semi-automatic hunting rifle; and only two murders, neither mass shootings, have been committed with machine guns since the 1930s.)
And then there are the heartrending hospital shows about kids killing each other with guns they found lying around their parents’ homes. See how unsafe it is to have a gun in the house?! Tragic, yes, but in 2019, there were only 39 gun deaths in the US among victims under age 11, and almost all were committed by adult males with criminal records and drug or alcohol addictions.
If you’re going to watch any new TV show (and as long as there are reruns of “The Andy Griffith Show,” I wouldn’t recommend it), you should read the entire article lest you be so bamboozled into believing wild claims, such as that America has so many guns that our murder rate is higher than Mexico’s, that you actually back the Democrats’ upcoming assault on the Second Amendment. (For the record, about half of Americans are legal gun owners compared to 1% of Mexicans, and Mexico’s murder rate is six times that of America’s.)
If there are any good writers left, this story could inspire a terrific novel about a repressive government that tries to control people by forcing them to stay home and watch big screen TVs that pump pro-government propaganda directly into their living rooms. You could name it something like, oh…”2021.”
A Judge Who Applies The Law
By Mike Huckabee
If you’re unfortunate enough to see any of the hateful social media comments about Rush Limbaugh’s death, just take them as a reminder that social media gives a platform to literally anyone, just like a soapbox in the park is open both to great orators and ranting drug addicts. The spewers of hatred and bile actually think they’re morally superior, which somehow gives them license to be nasty, rude, inhumane jerks. Read these stories and consider if any of the Rush haters ever has or ever will do as much for others as Rush did. And this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Why Nobody Trusts The News Media Anymore, Part 11,392
By Mike Huckabee
CNN’s Chris Cuomo tried blasting Sen. Ted Cruz for his actions during a public emergency. It did not go well for the fawning brother of Gov. Andrew “Hide the number of nursing home COVID casualties” Cuomo:
And in a related story, ABC’s “World News Tonight” devoted four times more airtime to Sen. Ted Cruz flying to Cancun during the ice storm than to news of a federal investigation and impeachment calls against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for alleged corruption to cover up thousands of COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes.
“Think Before Pressing Enter” Dept
By Mike Huckabee
A writer for the liberal site the Daily Beast was razzed for tweeting criticism of Tucker Carlson for putting “googly eyes” on a photo of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Uh, dude?...Those are AOC’s actual eyes. Some of the responses will make you laugh until your eyes pop.
Lucky for him, the real AOC was too busy to care, since she was dealing with the response to her own dumb tweet:
“The infrastructure failures in Texas are quite literally what happens when you *don’t* pursue a Green New Deal.”
As was loudly pointed out to her, the power outages in Texas were a direct result of transitioning from oil and gas to getting 25% of Texas energy from wind, and the wind turbines froze. This is so obvious and predictable that even if you couldn’t guess it was coming, you could look to Europe or California for previous tragic examples of what happens when government mandates replacing necessary, reliable forms of energy with unreliable, yet-developed “green sources,” as if the facts of physics can be changed by man’s laws.
If anything, the actual “climate crisis” in Texas gives us a horrible example of why nobody should ever mistake AOC for a scientist. And a reminder that the only reliable source of never-ending wind is Washington, DC.
