Chris McGovern, chairman of the Campaign for Real Education, said: “This attack on Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is shameful, unreasonable and despicable. A form of intellectual lunacy underpins this attack on Parton’s commendable enterprise.”

Launched by Parton in 1995. The singer has invested millions into Imagination Library and has said: “If I’m remembered 100 years from now, I hope it will be not for looks but for books.”

The scheme was extended to the UK in 2008 and has benefited thousands of children in areas including London, Lincolnshire, Wakefield, Manchester, Rotherham and Bradford.

Parton’s inspiration for the programme was her father, Robert Lee Parton Sr., who never attended school or learned how to read. He played a major role in the organisation until he died in 2000.

Imagination Library has been awarded the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval and the Best Practices award from the US Library of Congress Literacy Awards.

Insanity is On the Table

Just because it is evil, insane, and impossible doesn’t mean they won’t try to do it. Col Douglas Macgregor points out that RFK Jr is absolutely correct about the clowns and neocons still trying to force Americans to go to war with Russia, Iran, and apparently China too: RFK JR is spot on regarding Washington’s […]

"The UK is one of the countries that has prohibited the export of quantum computers with 34 or more quantum bits, or qubits, and error rates below a certain threshold. The intention seems to be to restrict machines of a certain capability, but the UK government hasn’t explicitly said this. A New Scientist freedom of information request for a rationale behind these numbers was turned down on the grounds of national security."

"Einstein stopped submitting work to the Physical Review after receiving a negative critique from the journal in response to a paper he had written with Rosen on gravitational waves later in 1936. That much has long been known, at least to the editors of Einstein’s collected papers. But the story of Einstein’s subsequent interaction with the referee in that case is not well known to physicists outside of the gravitational-wave community. Last March, the journal’s current editor-in-chief, Martin Blume, and his colleagues uncovered the journal’s logbook records from the era, a find that has confirmed the suspicions about that referee’s identity. Moreover, the story raises the possibility that Einstein’s gravitational-wave paper with Rosen may have been his only genuine encounter with anonymous peer review."

Biden-bot Malfunction

Biden #5 is observably on the fritz. Biden calls Zelensky ‘President Putin’ to his face in biggest gaffe yet then calls his No2 Kamala Harris ‘Vice President Trump’ – as Ukraine leader cancels press conference and more top Democrats urge 81-year-old to end White House race. It’s fascinating to see how they keep rolling out […]

There’s something GLORIOUS about watching CNN read this Trump quote live on air.

CNN viewers just got a truth bomb, and it is hilarious.

“Whatever else can be said about crooked Joe Biden, you have to give him credit for one brilliant decision: picking Kamala Harris as his vice president was the greatest insurance policy of all time. If Joe had picked someone even halfway competent, they would have bounced him from his office years ago.”

Boeing Starliner Return Delayed Until August

Astronauts Barry Wilmore and Sunita Williams will remain on the International Space Station (ISS) at least until August, as the Boeing Starliner spacecraft is unable to undock and retrieve them sooner. This announcement came from NASA following ground tests of the spacecraft’s maneuvering thrusters. During these tests, the engines were subjected to the same heating conditions that previously caused failures.

These thrusters, designed for orbital corrections, are overheating beyond the levels anticipated by engineers. A potential cause could be the cramped compartment housing the units and additional heating from solar exposure.

There Are No Studies

As I have been pointing out for literal decades, there are very few, if any, actual scientific studies that have been performed on vaccine safety. Not for any vaccine, not for any age group of recipients. The pro-vaxxers have always begged the question and assumed the conclusion by claiming that it would be unethical to […]
