Saturday Links

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

From National Review, the costs of the euro zone's energy "transition" won't be "transitory".

From Townhall, even Democrats are fed up with President Biden's gasoline policies.

From The Washington Free Beacon, taxpayers get to foot the bill for a terrorist's sex change operation.

From the Washington Examiner, major retailers undergo a shortage of.....tampons.  (In Oregon, you can find them in public school restrooms, including those for boys.)

From American Thinker, it's not a good idea for the Gooblets to be proud.

From LifeZette, neither the Democrats nor the media will talk about the death of Ashli Babbitt.

From NewsBusters, MSNBC host Tiffany Cross says nothing about the attempted assassination of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, but reports on the need for strippers to form unions.

From Canada Free Press, war might be hell, but mass murder by government could be even worse.  (As explained by the fictional Colonel Hawkeye Pierce of MASH, the phrase "war is hell" isn't really true.)

From TeleSUR, a secular tyranny and a theocratic tyranny sign cooperation agreements.

From TCW Defending Freedom, we can blame our ability to catch the coronavirus on......Neanderthals?

From Snouts in the Trough, the more people in Israel get coronavirus shots, the more cases the country seems to have.

From Free West Media, the German national soccer team will probably not take a knee before kickoff when they play against the Hungarian team.

From EuroNews, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz fails to get Bulgaria to drop its objections to E.U. accession talks with North Macedonia.

From The North Africa Post, according to E.U. official Valdis Dombrovskis, Algeria's move to freeze trade with Spain violates the E.U.-Algeria Association Agreement.

From The New Arab, militias clash in Tripoli, Libya.

From OpIndia, death threats and violent posts continue on Instagram against an Indian woman who allegedly insulted the Islamic prophet Mohammed.  (Aren't such posts banned under Meta's rules against hateful and violent conduct?)

From TimesNow, according to Indian sabhacritter Imtiaz Jaleel, the woman who insulted Mohammed should be hanged.  (The Indian parliament is divided into two chambers respectively called the Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha, both names being accepted by my spellchecker.  Thus, a sabhacritter is the Indian equivalent of a U.S. congresscritter.)

From Gatestone Institute, Iran's mullahs score a victory for their nuclear program.

From The Stream, a tale of two alleged "incitements".

From The American Conservative, the meaning of the recall of San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin.

From The Daily Signal, "conservatism and the American future".

From The Western Journal, Senator Maggie Hassan (D-NH) finds it "frustrating" that Biden is not willing to follow her plan for reducing gas prices.

From The Daily Wire, Home Depot wins its case against the National Labor Relations Board over restricting BLM messaging on the uniforms of their employees.  (Just as Twitter, Facebook and other platforms can restrict content because they are private entities and thus not bound by the 1st Amendment, the private company Home Depot also has the same prerogative.)

From the Daily Caller, TV host Bill Maher rips Hollywood for romanticizing gun violence.

From the New York Post, former Masters champion Charl Schwartzel wins the inaugural LIV Gulf event, held near London.

From Breitbart, Russian bombers have reportedly been using 1960s-era anti-ship missiles against land targets in Ukraine.

And from Newsmax, lawyer Alan Derschowitz discusses advocacy and incitement.
