Neera Tanden OMB Nomination Goes Up In Flames, Biden Accepts Her Withdrawal (Details)
A big win for the GOP!


Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. And because of her vehemently anti-Republican, anti-American past, Neera Tanden will never be confirmed to what would’ve been the highest appointment of her political life.
From Breitbart:
March 2 (UPI) — Neera Tanden withdrew her name from consideration to be director of the Office of Management and Budget after facing scrutiny over her past tweets critical of lawmakers, President Joe Biden announced Tuesday.

The decision came after Biden lost enough votes in the Senate to confirm Tanden’s nomination. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., announced Tuesday he wouldn’t vote in favor of her.
CONTINUED:
“I have accepted Neera Tanden’s request to withdraw her name from nomination for director of the Office of Management and Budget,” Biden said in a statement.
“I have the utmost respect for her record of accomplishment, her experience and her counsel, and I look forward to having her serve in a role in my administration. She will bring valuable perspective and insight to our work.”
Check out some of these tweets…
Watching @neeratanden delete all her negative tweets about Republican Senators is hilarious. Her nomination is already a funeral.

Nothing has made me like this recount more than the response it has elicited from Trump. https://t.co/GljkNYdATj

Even if this is true, hasn’t the dossier been mostly proven to be true? It’s amazing how comfortable the likes of @ByronYork are happy to run interference for Russians intervening in our elections. https://t.co/zbRORm2f0Q

Amazon Rolls Out Creepy ‘Pay By Palm’ Hardware at Whole Foods
Is this one of the harbingers of a cashless society?


Throughout much of modern history, Americans and their cash were two separate things. One was a human being, breathing and walking about, earning money. The money was an inanimate commodity of varying value that we used to keep the organism alive, fat, and happy. But in the future, it seems as though we may find ourselves intrinsically, and anatomically indistinguishable from our bank account. In fact, it appears as though Amazon is banking on it. Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O) said it is rolling out biometric technology at its Whole Foods stores around Seattle starting on Wednesday, letting shoppers pay for items with a scan of their palm. The move shows how Amazon is bringing some of the technology already in use at its namesake brick-and-mortar Go and Books stores to the grocery chain it acquired in 2017. The system, called Amazon One, lets customers associate a credit card with their palm print. It offers a contact-less alternative to cash and card payments, Amazon said. Of course, the move is being regarded as a terrifying leap into Orwellian territory by privacy experts, as it appears to push us ever closer to a cashless society where hackers and power failures could doom us all to poverty in the blink of an eye.


The politicization of American sports has been ongoing for some time, perhaps decades, but the most recent acceleration of this melding has come thanks to the power of social media and the blurring of the line between celebrity and athlete. At the forefront of this movement has been the NBA, and, more specifically, superstar LeBron James. This week, James came under fire for a tweet in which he referenced the Derek Chauvin trial’s guilty verdicts, with a photo of another officer who was involved in the shooting of a young black girl and text stating “you’re next”. The tweet was seen as a threat by many, including the Fraternal Order of Police who responded harshly. On Wednesday, James tweeted a photo of the officer involved in the shooting with a caption reading “YOU’RE NEXT #ACCOUNTABILITY.” The tweet has since been deleted. James was reacting to the deadly police shooting of 16-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant. Hours later, the National Fraternal Order of Police tweeted a photo of James’ original tweet, saying: “[email protected], with his vast resources & influence, should educate himself and, frankly, has a responsibility to do so, on the facts before weighing in. This is disgraceful & extremely reckless. The officer saved a young girl’s life. No amount of gaslighting will change that fact.” James attempted to walk back the tweet after deleting it, by issuing an explanation that garnered only a lukewarm response online.
