The Feds are renewing the COVID-19 hospitalization reporting requirement effective Nov 1 despite an actually lower current infection peak than in previous years

 I couldn't believe it when I saw it, but it's true.

The pandemic emergency ended in May 2023.

Required reporting of hospitalizations expired in April 2024, after which "The number of hospitals regularly reporting data decreased by nearly two thirds." 

Are the Feds preparing for the general?

Trend for Oceanic Nino Index 1951-2024

The 2023-2024 season ended with the May-June-July measuring period. The last two measuring periods of the season came in at .4 and .2, which were not anomalous.

The sum of the season's anomalies was 15.4, not to be confused with size of the actual El Nino.

The El Nino lasted twelve months, ending in March-April-May 2024, overlapping with the 2022-2023 season by two periods and measuring a total anomaly of 16.1, or 1.34 on average. The El Nino was still considered strong (1.5-1.9) however because there were at least three consecutive such anomalous measuring periods measuring between 1.5 and 1.9. There were six such consecutive periods this time, and only one was 2.0 (in the very strong category).

The new season has begun with a .1 reading, also not anomalous.

The overall long term trend for the eastern tropical Pacific sea surface temperature anomaly still lands just slightly below 0 since 1951.

The trend of ever-higher warm anomaly seasons looks broken, but the trend of ameliorating cold anomaly seasons looks intact.

 How Kamala Harris Can Prove She’s Not a Flip-flopping Phony

Ed Kilgore, New York Magazine

Kamala Harris’s effort to depict herself as a candidate of safe but forward-looking change (as opposed to the decidedly unsafe and reactionary change represented by Donald Trump) has unsurprisingly spurred a host of GOP attacks on a cherry-picked assortment of unpopular or at least questionable-sounding policy positions from her past, ranging from support for a single-payer health-care system and sympathy for undocumented immigrants to opposition to fracking and to aggressive policing tactics.

 

Is Chris Cillizza, formerly of CNN, WaPo, Meet the Depressed, and PMSNBC cherry-picking?

 

I mean, most of these lists are incomplete because Harris' has left a LONG trail demonstrating her extreme leftism in speeches, interviews, tweets, policy statements from 2019, et cetera, and it's a daunting task to list them all. Any list of them will show an editor's bias about what's important in the editor's opinion.

But the idea from James Carville endorsed by Kilgore that Harris can just say she learned in the White House that spending $800 billion over ten years in the misnamed Inflation Reduction Act to reverse climate change was good enough when in 2019 she said it would take $1 trillion PER YEAR for ten years is just laughable.

 

LAUGHABLE.

That's hardly going to fly with the climate change left, let alone anyone else.

 

Ed Kilgore's just pretending that isn't the case. He's an enabler of Harris' silence in the face of the flip-flops.

 

 

 

 

After all the brouhaha about Kamala Harris' race, there's NOTHING in this Wikipedia entry about her being black in 2004-2011

CBS News lies about heat deaths, now AP Obama blatantly lies about what JD Vance said

It's almost like you can't trust the news 😏 .

 

 

CBS News just lies through its teeth about heat deaths

 Extreme heat is the No. 1 cause of weather-related deaths in the U.S., a risk that grows as temperatures rise.

From the story here. 

This isn't even debatable in the slightest degree:

Cold-related deaths outnumber heat deaths in all countries

What’s consistent in these studies is that cold-related deaths vastly outnumber those from heat.

In the Global Burden of Disease study, cold-related deaths were around four times higher than heat-related ones.

The study that estimates that 7.7% of deaths were attributed to temperature found that 7.3% were from cold temperatures; 0.4% were from heat.

In the “5 million death” study, 9.4% of deaths were related to sub-optimal temperatures. 8.5% were cold-related, and 0.9% were heat-related. This skew was true across all regions.

You can see these results in the chart below.

Globally, cold deaths are 9 times higher than heat-related ones. In no region is this ratio less than 3, and in many, it’s over 10 times higher. Cold is more deadly than heat, even in the hottest parts of the world.

German party Alternative für Deutschland wins in Thuringia, comes in close second in Saxony, still frozen out of governance by CDU member who heads German intelligence

 For the first time ever, the right-populist Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) won a state election. In Thuringia, the party gained 32.8 per cent of the votes – nearly 10 points ahead of the conservative Christian Democratic Union (CDU), which came in second with 23.6 per cent. In Saxony, the AfD won 30.6 per cent and came just 1.3 per cent behind the leading CDU. ...

Meanwhile, the three parties of the ruling coalition government lagged far behind. Combined, their vote share amounted to less than 15 per cent in Saxony and just over 10 per cent in Thuringia. ... The AfD’s gains are not a one-off slip-up, but a continuation of its successes. The party was already the second-strongest force in both federal states in the last state elections in 2019. On a national level, the AfD came second in the EU elections this June. ...

The attempt to combat the AfD by merely dismissing it as beyond the pale clearly isn’t working. Even those who don’t like the AfD, but are principled democrats, can see the problem with freezing out a party that just won a democratic election. ... The polls are crystal clear about which topics matter most to voters – rising crime rates, unregulated migration, a sinking standard of living and the growing influence of radical Islam. These are all real, rational concerns.

Harris-Walz campaign uses anti-democratic tactics against the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in the name of saving democracy

 In Philadelphia on Aug. 6, an enormous crowd of supporters exulted in the announcement of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate for the White House. But at the same time, another much quieter drama unfolded: A reporter for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the second-largest news organization in the most important battleground state, was being denied access to the venue. ...

The Harris-Walz campaign continues to take measures to exclude Post-Gazette reporters and photographers from its events due to an ongoing, and very unusual, labor action at the newspaper. The journalists’ strike is unusual because it has gone on so long — nearly two years, making it the longest ongoing strike in America — but also because it has only ever attracted the support of a small minority of the bargaining unit. ... the more anti-democratic tactics we tolerate in the name of saving democracy, the less democracy there will be left to save.

Democrat former chief counsel to the House Judiciary Committee says Harris cocooning herself is an affront to democracy

 

If the polling errors favoring Democrats in 2020 and 2016 persist, then Trump is probably still in the lead.

Further, the focus of the fall campaign will increasingly move from “joy” to policy — and Trump leads on most issues because of a Biden-Harris record of which most voters disapprove.

The cocooning of Harris is an affront to the transparent principles of democracy. It invites a return of the Bush-era chicken mascots.

Most importantly, it feels dangerously close to a reprise of the failed 1988 Mike Dukakis presidential campaign that never came out of its left-leaning bunker.
