HACKING AWAY
QUOTES OF THE DAY
About those 600,000 Barrels . . .
If you think gas (and food) are expensive now, give it a week.
That’s all it may take for the thing styled the “media” to whip up enough hysteria about the Danger of Putin to cause something far worse and even more idiotic than the pouring out of Russian Vodka into the sink.
That thing being the turning off of the Russian spigot.
America currently imports something on the order of 600,000 barrels of Russian oil every day – an amount about 200,000 barrels shy of the number of barrels America would not have to import from Russia, had the Biden Thing not cancelled the Keystone Pipeline, among other things. 
The deficit of those 200,000-something barrels per day – along with the other things of-a-piece done by the Biden Thing to reduce the supply of oil available to Americans – has helped to almost double the price of a gallon of gas over the course of a little more than one year since Orange Man Bad. And while he may, indeed, have been very bad – as by declaring (and continuing) an “emergency” when there wasn’t one and by turgidly Warp Speeding dangerous drugs not merely into existence but facilitated the forcing of them into the bodies of tens of millions of Americans – he was very good on the energy front.

The Glorious Flop of New Zealand Virus Control
An infuriatingly consistent aspect of the mainstream media’s COVID coverage was their determination to prematurely credit a country with a wildly successful set of policy interventions.
While there has been no track record of universally accurate predictions or expectations, the desire to claim victory as far back as spring 2020 has led to subsequent embarrassments as trends change.
Naturally, New Zealand is no stranger to such untimely praise, with the BBC in July 2020 doing an in-depth look at how New Zealand became “COVID free.”
Of course, it was because New Zealand “…locked down early and aimed for elimination” and achieved “effective communication and public compliance.”
This is really the whole problem in a nutshell, isn’t it?

Xi Tells Macron & Scholz China Opposes Russia Sanctions, Warns Crisis “Spinning Out Of Control”
Caught between the West and its growing closeness over the years with Moscow, China is facing a dilemma on Ukraine. On Monday Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi emphasized that “The China-Russia relationship is valued for its independence.” Wang added: “We are determined [to keep the relationship] free from interference or discord sown by third parties.”
On Tuesday President Xi Jinping held a virtual meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, wherein the Chinese leader urged “maximum restraint” in Ukraine to prevent a humanitarian crisis and said China is “pained to see the flames of war reignited in Europe.”
Further Xi warned that a spiraling economic war would result in blowback as sanctions over Russia “will deal a blow to the stability of global finance, energy, transportation and supply chain, dragging down the world economy amid the pandemic,” according his words, for which immediate stabilizing efforts must be taken by Europe’s leaders.
