A Nanny State Idiocracy: A Tale of Too Many Laws and Too Little Freedom“Whether the mask is labeled fascism, democracy, or dictatorship of the proletariat, our great adversary remains the apparatus—the bureaucracy, the police, the military.”—Simone Weil, French philosopherWe are caught in a vicious cycle of too many laws, too many cops,
and too little freedom.It’s hard to say whether we’re dealing with a kleptocracy (a government ruled by thieves), a kakistocracy (a government run by unprincipled career politicians, corporations and thieves that panders to the worst vices in our nature and has little regard for the rights of American...

A wife has been jailed after a judge deemed the abuse of her husband "the worst case of controlling and coercive behaviour" she had ever seen. Sheree
Spencer, 46, would repeatedly threaten to go to the police claiming her innocent husband, Richard Spencer, 47, was abusing her throughout their 20-year marriage. She would even scream for help from their home near York to try to back up her story and trick neighbours into thinking it was true, reports the Mirror. Sheree was only jailed after Richard's friend found nanny cam footage of the abuse and sent it to the cops....

A California male nanny smirked as he was jailed for 707 years for molesting more than a dozen young boys in his care. Matthew
Antonio Zakrzewski was convicted of sexually assaulting 16 boys aged two to 14, as well as showing another child pornography last month. The 34-year-old babysitter carried out the sordid campaign of abuse from 2014 until his arrest in May 2019. Many of his crimes were filmed and played in court. 'We watched you turn molestation into a game,' Orange County Superior Court Judge Kimberly Menninger told him on Friday. During his sentencing, the grandmother of one...

When candidates run for public office — local, state, or federal — they campaign on some careful blend of their résumés, their personalities, and their political issues. Thus
it has always been, and thus it will always be, in a republic. "Vote for me because I have the experience to do it well," or "Vote for me because I'm so much like you, I'll represent your interests," or "Vote for me because we agree on these twenty or thirty specific issues." But there is something going on that we don't usually expect, and while it's been in process for a...

America Out Loud ^

Until Trump and his MAGA movement showed Americans what America was and could be again, the GOP elites chose to feed at the Democrat’s feet under the table of their free droppings. After
Trump, the GOP elites, like those few still in the Senate that voted for the $1.7 Trillion Omnibus Spending Bill, continued the GOP’s treasured tradition of “go along to get along!” Do we accept that GOP leadership is rotten to its core or just off course? By what standard did Senatorial Republicans abandon their duty to stop government growth, limit spending and stop providing more funds to...

Winter 2020 was the season of Zoom holidays. By
2021, the omicron surge spoiled end-of-year plans. So far, the 2022 holiday season is off to a bumpy start with an early, sharp surge of flu and respiratory syncytial virus cases with an expected wave of Covid-19 cases on the horizon. With a lack of national and local precautionary guidance, individuals are now on their own to gauge risk and protection. However, Americans have more tools in their arsenal when it comes to protecting themselves against Covid this holiday season: vaccines, boosters, tests, masks, knowledge of how the virus spreads. ...Make...

Today in Liberal NinnyNanny News, we have sad tidings for Canadians with unapproved hobbies:In recent years shipping swords around the world has become increasingly difficult and complicated – and most recently CANADA seems to have singled out swords as 'dangerous goods' and have started returning our shipments sent from the US to
Canada, even singling swords out with their own 'dangerous goods' checkbox along with air shocks, guns, ink cartridges, knives, liquids, swords and the dreaded 'other' category. The merit of this spurious decision is a topic for another time, but least to say that lumping swords in with Airshocks,...

For many Americans, the summer of 2022 has been a blistering hot and humid miserable existence. It’s
just one of those years when one truly appreciates the comfort provided by something as simple as an air conditioning unit. How did we live without them? But for some 22,000 Xcel Energy customers in Colorado who wanted to be a little more comfortable on Tuesday when the thermometer was pegged at 90+ degrees, a bizarre message flashed on their thermostats indicating they’d lost the ability to control the temperature in their own homes.According to KMGH-TV, “Energy Emergency” was part of the message...

Victoria Police are a disgrace. They
roam safe streets in groups of five when there is absolutely no public danger or crime happening, while there are not enough nurses in hospitals or teachers in schools. They are arrogant or stupid. Or, at best, ashamed of what they are. When they commit crimes against people (false imprisonment, assault, perjury, to mention a few), they are rarely held to account. They dont get charged with these crimes and put on trial but are the beneficiaries of secretive "professional standards" investigations. Australia was a strong creative much freer society but ridiculous progressive misuse...

"Meanwhile, flash mob robbers hit a Los Angeles gun store…and get away in BMWs. California is experiencing a disturbing wave of flash mob robberies, a cargo ship crisis, and is tied with Nevada for the highest unemployment in the country. However,
what do our politicos squander time trying to control? Food waste. Banana peels, chicken bones and leftover veggies won’t have a place in California trashcans under the nation’s largest mandatory residential food waste recycling program that’s set to take effect in January.

My wife and I are scrambling to find daycare for our 16-month-old son. We’ve
had a “nanny share” up until now, which means we and another couple employ a nanny for both couples’ kids and split the cost. Our nanny is wonderful, and she lives just a few blocks from us. But a few weeks ago, someone walked up her street spraying bullets into random houses. One of the bullets found its way into her living room, as she and her family ducked for cover. At that moment, she and her husband decided they were moving their family out of...

BUTLER, Pennsylvania — A longtime nanny to Pennsylvania Republican Sean Parnell’s three children testified on Tuesday that she had never witnessed Parnell abuse his children, an allegation Parnell’s wife leveled against him last week as part of a bitter custody battle. Lori
McGoogan said under oath during the final day of custody hearings at the Butler County Courthouse that she has provided child care for the children for about a decade — including in-home care starting about five years ago, overnight care, and completion of household tasks like laundry and dinner preparation — and that she never witnessed Parnell become...

As Vaxx-Nanny Garth Brooks Moves Tour to Dive Bars, He Shows He’s Out of Touch with His Fans

Country singing legend Garth Brooks really, really wants everyone to get vaccinated. He’s
so adamant about it that he canceled his sold-out tour playing in big venues, opting instead to do a “dive bar” tour. The reason he’s doing this is absolutely ridiculous. “The dive bars are vaccinated, that’s how you get to do it,” Brooks explained of his reasoning for resuming shows at smaller venues. “So, the great thing about this is, [the fans are] vaccinated or they have to show a 3-day negative in-advance test.”

China’s nanny state: why Xi is cracking down on gaming and private tutors

New restrictions reflect Beijing’s desire to maintain social control, but they also provide a window on to the strains of urban life. The
additional lessons Wang Gang bought to help his only child prepare for China’s rigorous university exam, or gaokao, were not cheap. In addition to group courses from a private education company, he also paid Rmb6,000 ($927) for his daughter to take one-on-one math and physics sessions with a retired teacher over the month-long winter school break. “We are just an ordinary family but we cannot have any regrets when it comes to our daughter’s education,” says Wang,...
