Saturday Stories

On a cool and mostly cloudy Saturday, here are some things going on:

From National Review, reporter Hannah Dreier investigates child migrant labor.

From Townhall, Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) suddenly wants to protect Montana's residents from fentanyl.

From The Washington Free Beacon, "woke nonsense panels" at the corporate propaganda music festival South by Southwest.

From the Washington Examiner, woke censors find another target.

From The Federalist, Virginia House Republicans stop their Democrat colleagues from putting a right to partial-birth abortion into the state's constitution.

From American Thinker, academia's latest invention is the idea of "petro-masculinity".

From NewsBusters, MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart and author Christine Emba admit that abortion is about sex without consequences.

From Canada Free Press, to really go green "recycle the White House".

From TCW Defending Freedom, a tale of two films about the war between British colonists and Zulu natives in South Africa.

From EuroNews, the sunniest, snowiest and rainiest cities in Europe.  (Of all the cities listed, I've been to two of them - Glasgow, Scotland and Milan, Italy.)

From The North Africa Post, Algeria has the responsibility to allow humanitarian access to the Tindouf camps.

From The New Arab, representatives of the Yemeni government and the Houthi rebels discuss possible prisoner exchangers in Geneva, Switzerland.

From OpIndia, a young man shoots a Hindu girl for talking to a boy on her cell phone.

From EuroWeekly, a Moroccan who called himself "Allah's hitman" is sent to prison by a court on the Spanish island of Mallorca.

From Gatestone Institute, the Biden administration is allowing the Iranian mullahs to join the "nuclear club".

From The Stream, "when science become a religion".

From The Daily Signal, an Orthodox Jewish rabbi debunks the left-wing claim that conservatives want to force "Christian values" down all our throats.

From The American Conservative, transgenderism isn't just coming for your kids, but in the end, for reality.

From The Western Journal, a major shift in the balance of world power takes place under President Biden's nose.

From BizPac Review, after viewing footage from the Capitol riot, the Chief Twit calls for the "QAnon shaman" to be released. (I still can't believe that he wasn't charged with any dress code violation.)

From The Daily Wire, Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Donald Trump the Younger slam White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre over her false claim about right-wing commentator Michael Knowles.

From the Daily Caller, Securities and Exchange Commission officials met with representatives of a Swiss firm which allegedly sold "fictitious" carbon credits.  (I've sometimes wondered about what happens if I were to buy a carbon credit, which really should be called a "carbon dioxide credit".  Would the money I pay go to planting trees, which take carbon dioxide out of the air, or maybe go into research on ways to decrease greenhouse gas emissions, or would I be merely paying for the privilege of emitting more of my own carbon dioxide?  The Bigfootmobile, which is my biggest carbon dioxide source, and the instrument of my aforementioned "petro-masculinity", wants to know.)

From ABC News, Dutch farmers and anti-establishment demonstrators protest in a park in The Hague, Netherlands against the Dutch government's plans to reduce nitrate emissions.  (I'm happy to read the term "nitrate", which identifies the compounds that are being targeted, instead of "nitrogen", whose elemental form constitutes almost four fifths of the atmosphere, thus avoiding some confusion.  The story comes via the Daily Caller.)

From Catholic News Agency, Pope Francis calls gender ideology "one of the most dangerous ideological colonizations" going on today.  (I've got a feeling that the aforementioned Michael Knowles might agree.  This story comes via the New York Post, who got it from Fox News.)

From Breitbart, the collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank causes "international fallout".

From Newsmax, three women go missing in Mexico after entering from Texas last month.

And from the New York Post, the March ice cream flavor of the month at Baskin-Robbins is "Chick'n & Waffles".
