Saturday Stuff For Beethoven's Birthday

On the birth anniversary of my favorite classical composer, which is also the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, here are some things going on:

From National Review, 250 years after the Boston Tea Party, its spirit lives on.

From Townhall, reactions to a Democrat staffer getting caught [bleep]ing in a Senate hearing room are about what you'd expect.  (Reader discretion is most definitely advised.)

From The Washington Free Beacon, more about the Democrat staffer, who was featured in a Biden campaign ad in 2020.  (Again, reader discretion is advised.)

From the Washington Examiner, two watchdog groups call for former Trump attorney Jenna Ellis to be disbarred.

From The Federalist, the participants in the Boston Tea Party knew government tyranny when they saw it, and Americans still do today.

From American Thinker, the Biden administration pays and coerces media outlets to toe its left-wing line.

From NewsBusters, when then-President Obama (U.S.) embraced the communist dictatorship of President Fidel Castro (Cuba).

From Canada Free Press, Obama was right when he said "elections have consequences".

From TeleSUR, Foreign Minister Yván Gil (Venezuela) tells Foreign Minister David Cameron (U.K.) to take his hands off Latin America.

From TCW Defending Freedom, First Minister of Wales Mark Drakeford may be going, but the area's new 20 mph speed limit isn't.

From Snouts in the Trough, the American mainstream media is deranged over the possible return of former President Trump to his old office.

From Allah's Willing Executioners, Germany extends basic income support to second wives.  (If you read German, read the story at NiUS.)

From Gatestone Institute, the Biden administration empowered the Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen.

From The Stream, families who decided against abortion despite diagnoses of T18.

From The American Conservative, the college football bowl season ain't what it used to be.  (For a long time, I've been sick of having the names of corporate sponsors being included in the names of bowls, which is exemplified by the "Radiance Technologies Independence Bowl" mentioned in the article.  In some cases, the bowl's entire name comes from of the corporation, such as with the "Pop-Tarts Bowl", which has had many former names.)

From The Western Journal, is congressional candidate Mazi Pilip, nominated by Republicans to replace former congresscritter George Santos (R-NY), really a Democrat?

From BizPac Review, a professor allegedly dismissed for his political views gets to tell the board who dismissed him that "by now it is painfully obvious that you made a mistake".

From The Daily Wire, a nationally recognized law firm will end its on-campus recruiting at Harvard University after its president's testimony on antisemitism.

From the Daily Caller, in the Red Sea, the USS Carney 14 - Houthi drones 0.

From the New York Post, according to a study, the reason we like to eat junk food might be traceable to the Black Plague, which broke out about 700 years ago.

From Breitbart, what President Biden might be accused of if he's impeached.

From Newsmax, China defends the bounties it has offered for the capture of dissidents from Hong Kong.

And from SFGate, Emeryville, California has gone from "rotten" to a place for a "surprisingly great day trip".
