Emperor Sisolak to Rural Nevada: Up Yours!
January 31, 2021
(Chuck Muth) – The worst beating you’re likely to get as a kid is when a bully tells you to do something, such as hand over your lunch money, and you reply, “No.” Bullies will not tolerate being defied.
Which naturally brings us to Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak.
On Thursday, the Lyon County Board of Commissioners bravely defied the Emperor by
UNANIMOUSLY (5-0) passing Commissioner Ken Gray’s “Revolution Resolution” declaring that the governor has abused his authority in dealing with the CHINA-19 endemic.
The resolution went on to state that “all independently owned businesses are essential” and urged those in Lyon County to operate “within the Governor’s ‘emergency directives’ in good faith,” but allowed them “to determine how and if to implement those directives relative to their business model.”

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) was founded in 1978 as an educational trade union to act as a collective pressure group on behalf of all public universities. This was in the heady days of the 1970’s when trade unions had enormous powers and held governments to ransom. We recall that it was the unions in the United Kingdom that brought down Edward Heath’s government in 1974.
Strikes have been a constant feature of ASUU, accounting for about 30 percent of their total existence being lost to strikes which have greatly eroded the value of Nigerian education. A typical Nigerian student spends about six to seven years for a four-year course. Most public school students know when they commence their studies but are clueless as to when they will graduate due to no fault of theirs due to the strikes.

The two nations have been, for some time, exchanging barbs over pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong in 2019, and 2020. London says Beijing is trying to silence dissent in Hong Kong.

Starting Sunday, Hong Kong residents can apply for a special visa which offers them the opportunity to become British citizens. The move by UK has come as a response to Beijing’s imposition of a national security law in the Asian financial hub last year.
