Jewish World Review April 27, 2021 Rogue Report By Argus Hamilton

The Academy Awards ceremony was held in downtown Los Angeles Sunday night at Union Station. No one in the entertainment industry turns down a ticket for this gig. Every year, the Oscars has more stars gathered in any one place except at the Betty Ford Center.
• Caitlyn Jenner called a press conference in Los Angeles Friday to announce a decision to join the recall race and run for California governor. That took balls. Only in California would the first female governor be the stepfather of the Kardashians and the Male Athlete of the Year 1976.
• Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced Thursday she's set to order a new policy that bans the police from pursuing a suspect who runs away from arrest. Anyone who runs away, gets away. How is it going to look at the Olympics this summer in Tokyo when all our sprinters are from Chicago?
• The New York Times conceded wearing a mask is not necessary if you're vaccinated. However it said wearing masks is polite to the unvaccinated and it shows national solidarity. So let's vote, everybody in favor of mask wearing, gun control and allegiance to the New York Times, raise your right arm.
• Los Angeles parents protested L.A. schools teaching critical race theory to their children rather than the traditional educational curriculum the parents demand. The children just want to go back to school. The new 1st grade reading books are out featuring Dick and Jane in First Knife Fight. • Tesla CEO Elon Musk will host Saturday Night Live in May, cementing his place as a modern folk hero both as automaker and as a space explorer. His new self-driving Tesla can diagnose itself and even pre-order parts. Just as cool, if you miss two payments, it drives itself back to the dealership. • Fox News pundits said Biden's taxing, spending and open borders will make America a Third World country. Suddenly I see Biden's logic. The problem is, people from Third World countries want to come to America, so if we make America a Third World country, it will save them a long walk. • The Wall Street Journal noted last week that more companies are joining Coca-Cola and Delta Airlines and the Big Tech companies in playing along with the Democratic Party's liberal social agenda. How far could it go? Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream just introduced a new flavor, Be Less Vanilla. • Joe Biden recognized Turkey's massacre of Armenians a century ago Saturday. I can't accept Turkey's explanation that Stalin would've killed them a few years later anyway, however true. Biden became the first president to recognize the Armenian genocide and the first to not recognize his wife. • Climate Czar John Kerry insisted on big cutbacks in fossil fuel use at the White House virtual climate summit Thursday. He cuts quite a figure. Only Democrats could designate a guy with six houses, twelve cars, two yachts and private jet to tell you that you should take the bus to stop pollution. • Greece hosted NATO war games in which sixty U.S. fighter jets buzzed the ancient Acropolis in Athens. Those ruins identify a glorious era. In 2,000 years, when archaeologists dig up our ruins, they will discover a society weirdly obsessed with photos of themselves and the softness of toilet paper.
