2. RIP Mickey Gilley & A Quick Note about Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductees
By Pat Reeder, Huckabee Staff-writer
There's been so much news the past week that it's almost overwhelming, but I can't let the passing of country star Mickey Gilley go unmentioned. Gilley died last weekend in Pasadena, Texas, at 86 of undisclosed causes.
https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/mickey-gilley-dead
Gilley was best known for his '80s hits that were associated with the "Urban Cowboy" craze kicked off by the John Travolta movie (the country flipside of the disco boom Travolta sparked with "Saturday Night Fever.") Gilley not enjoyed huge chart success with such pop-country hits as "Stand By Me" and "Don't the Girls All Get Prettier at Closing Time," he also became famous for his Gilley's club, the "world's biggest honky-tonk," with its mechanical bull, as seen in the film. Even after the hits dried up, his name was still associated with the Mickey Gilley Golf Classic and live venues. He had a theater in Branson, and there was a Gilley's to the west of us in Fort Worth (now Billy Bob's Texas) and still a Gilley's to the east in Dallas (not his, but named after him.)
Those who know only his '80s "Urban Cowboy" years might be surprised to learn that he'd been plugging away for quite a while before that. His first record, "Ooh We Baby," came in 1957 (the label was "Minor Records"); his first charted song was "Is It Wrong" in 1960 (the uncredited bass player was Kenny Rogers); and his first album was "Lonely Wine" in 1964. He overcame a number of setbacks, including two fires that destroyed his venues and an accident that paralyzed him for three months and ended his ability to play piano. But he kept performing as a singer and storyteller.
Mickey Gilley was a member of a famous trio of singer/pianist cousins from Ferriday, Louisiana, that included "The Killer" Jerry Lee Lewis in the rock field, and Jimmy Swaggart in the gospel arena. Both cousins are still alive (yes, even Jerry Lee.)
A few years ago, Mickey Gilley visited the "Huckabee" show along with fellow "Urban Cowboy" star Johnny Lee ("Looking for Love in All The Wrong Places.") You can relive that moment here.
Rest in peace, Mickey.

Just a quick note on this year's inductees into the "Rock and Roll" Hall of Fame. In the performer category, they are Pat Benetar and Neil Geraldo, Eurythmics (both deserved), Duran Duran (not my choice, but okay), Carly Simon, Lionel Richie (wait, wasn't this supposed to be rock?), Dolly Parton (who unsuccessfully asked that her name be removed because she's never even made a rock record) and Eminem (okay, this is definitely no longer a rock music Hall of Fame. Some of us would argue that that's not even music.)
The Hall's CEO defended Eminem's induction by claiming he "emits the same feeling" as heavy metal does. If that means he induces headaches, I'll grant that, but it's not rock. Actual metal pioneers Judas Priest finally got a "Musical Excellence Award," but weren't inducted as performers.
As has become a yearly tradition, here's my very incomplete list of artists who have NOT been inducted into the alleged "Rock and Roll" Hall of Fame so they can make room for people like Eminem, Jay-Z, Dolly Parton, etc.:
Jethro Tull; The Monkees; Mott the Hoople; The Jam; Ted Nugent; Dick Dale; Herman's Hermits; Blue Oyster Cult; The Guess Who; King Crimson; Thin Lizzy; Robin Trower; Emerson Lake & Palmer; Iron Maiden; Devo; Paul Revere and the Raiders; Styx; Tommy James and the Shondells; Boston; Steppenwolf; America; The Grass Roots; Jan and Dean; Motorhead; Neil Sedaka; Badfinger; the MC5; The New York Dolls; Grand Funk Railroad; Slade; Joe Walsh; Three Dog Night; Warren Zevon; Link Wray; Meat Loaf; Vanilla Fudge; Blood, Sweat and Tears; Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers; J. Geils Band; Bad Company; neither Johnny nor Edgar Winter; Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels; Peter Frampton, Johnny Burnette; Ten Years After; Johnny Rivers; The B-52s and many more.

4. 2,000 MULES: What must be said about media blackout
On May 5, when Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote went on Tucker Carlson's FOX News show to discuss election fraud, she very strangely did not mention the name of the movie, 2,000 MULES, she had produced with Dinesh D'Souza. The movie she thought she was there to promote, the one premiering that week.
Apparently, she'd been instructed not to.
The resulting conversation was bizarre. According to D'Souza, just before the interview, Tucker and producer Justin Wells quickly got with Engelbrecht and, incredibly, told her she couldn't say the name of her film on the air. And she was forbidden to say the election was stolen. So if her speech during this interview seemed a little halting and unsure, it's likely because she was self-editing on the fly.
The caption appearing onscreen was just "A Look Into What Happened in the 2020 Election."
https://twitter.com/realLizUSA/status/1522410956395098114?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed
D'Souza himself has a similar story: he'd been booked on Grant Stinchfield's Newsmax show but was abruptly canceled. "...why isn't this a legitimate news story?" he tweeted. "How can so-called news networks pretend it doesn't exist?"
Unlike FOX News, Newsmax did respond, with this statement:
"Newsmax has covered '2000 Mules,' including airing its trailer dozens of times, airing President Trump's comments on it, and featuring '2000 Mules' in our daily podcast. Also covered it on Newsmax.com.
We've allowed the for-profit '2000 Mules' to run their ads on @Newsmax. We've extensively covered the 2020 election, its results, and President Trump's challenges to the race. Voter integrity issues are of national importance."
Why, yes, it is. Still, it would've been nice for them to explain the cancelation.
https://waynedupree.com/2022/05/znewsmax-2000-mules-dinesh/?yptr=yahoo
Needless to say, the left is loving this. I'll spare you links to stories from Newsweek, The Daily Beast and other leftist outlets that call D'Souza a "far-right conspiracy theorist" (and worse) and his movie a "bizarre flick that baselessly claims the 2020 election was stolen," and a "propaganda film peddling a wholly flawed and faulty premise about ballot fraud in the 2020 election."
Really? We've read the so-called "fact"-checks and found them to be amusingly insufficient. Word to the not-wise: SAYING a claim is "debunked" is not the same as actually debunking. Some left-leaning news outlets are linking to the "debunk" from PolitiFact as if it were definitive. Their "fact"-check is laughable.
Yes, there are questions we'd ask about the claims in the film. We'd like to get experts on to go on record about how closely the geospatial cellphone tracking corresponds to a person's movements. We'd also like to know if the filmmakers ever got security video of the same person at multiple drop boxes and if not, what the explanation for that would be. Of course, the same story is told when one cellphone ID shows up at different locations, but think how effective it would've been to see one person show up repeatedly!
If there weren't such a media blackout on the movie, all this could be discussed in the light of day, on, say, FOX News. (Full disclosure: I'm a FOX News contributor.) That's what the producers of this movie wanted. But as David Burge (Iowahawk) famously tweeted, "Journalism is about covering important stories. With a pillow, until they stop moving."
My understanding is that most –- perhaps all? –- states require security cameras at drop boxes, but that many states ignore that requirement. Some states that do have cameras are withholding their video. And Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) requests are being ignored, as is typical.
But in other states, such as Arizona, there's action. The sheriff of Yuma County, who was in the film, says his office is teaming with the county recorder to investigate 2020 election fraud. They announced Wednesday that as of March, they had 16 open voter fraud cases. Not only are they looking at 2020, but they've seen evidence of a "pattern" of fraudulent voter registration forms ahead of the 2022 primary election. Engelbrecht at True the Vote is encouraged.
"What has been happening in Yuma County is happening across the country," she said. "The targeting of vulnerable communities and vote abuse must be stopped."
Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich has already indicted half a dozen people for illegal ballot harvesting. And D'Souza told investigative reporter John Solomon that the alleged Yuma County "mule" interviewed in the movie is cooperating with authorities. "It seems to be a direct response to the work of both True the Vote and the movie," D'Souza said.
Solomon goes on to report that despite the lack of media and being relegated to alternative platforms such as Locals and Rumble, 2,000 MULES has made over $10 million. D'Souza told him that in just five days, a million people have seen it, "which, for a political documentary, is like downright insane."
Finally, for weekend reading, David Horowitz and John Perazzo have a must-read article about Mark Zuckerberg's funding of that tax-exempt foundation, the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), largely to pay for drop boxes. For Biden to win, by the teensiest margin in history, all they needed to do was spend his strategic influx of cash on "harvesting" ballots and getting them dropped into artfully-placed boxes. $350 million went to their "Safe Elections" Project --- as in, safe for the Democrat candidate? --- and another $69.5 million went to the Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR), whose founder had been a director of People For The American Way. The money to both these foundations was funneled through yet another one, the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, which supports get-out-the-vote campaigns for the Democrat Party.
The article goes into much more detail about how they use these funds. They claim to be nonpartisan, but, clearly, that is a joke. In 2020, it was easy to use COVID as an excuse to do elections the "safe" way, which coincidentally made cheating safe, too, as easy as pie.
Read the whole thing and be shocked. The list of grants goes on and on, obviously targeted to help Democrats. As The Federalist has noted, "The practical effect of these massive, privately manipulated election-office funding disparities was to create a 'shadow' election system with a built-in structural bias that systematically favored Democratic voters over Republican voters." It "essentially created a high-powered, concierge-like get-out-the-vote effort for Biden..."
And as the Internal Revenue Code unambiguously states, partisan political activity by non-profits is illegal.
This is the sort of conversation a movie like 2,000 MULES should be sparking in TV newsrooms. That would be real reporting, the lack of which is shameful. The political hacks at CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, and CBS won't permit it, and now we see they're not the only ones who won't. If this is some sort of "collusion" or "conspiracy" or "joint venture" among the powers that be, to maintain the illusion of an honest election process when we have something very different, then a REAL newsroom would distinguish itself by refusing to be a part of that.

5. More proof of Orwell's dictum that there are some ideas so absurd that only an intellectual could believe them
The journal "People and Nature" declared virtually every name in the US Parks system, such as Yosemite Valley, to "perpetuate settler colonial mythologies, including white supremacy." Therefore, the names must all be changed, which is, of course, just a first step toward returning all the land to indigenous peoples.
Why do I get the impression that the closest these idiots have ever come to a national park are the cannabis plants under the Grow-Lights in their dens?
6. Despite national shortage: plenty of baby formula at this border detention center
I hate to raise your blood pressure, but this has to be shared: Florida Rep. Kat Cammack released a photo she says was sent to her by a 30-year veteran border agent. It shows that while American mothers are frantically searching stores to find baby formula (the agent said his own kids can't get it for his grandchildren), the Biden Administration has been sending pallets of baby formula to a migrant processing center in McAllen, Texas, where it's being provided free to illegal immigrants.
I wonder if Mexico would be willing to trade Presidents with us? Biden seems far more concerned with helping citizens of other nations than Americans, and I can't imagine that the President of Mexico would do a worse job as our President than he is.
7. What a surprise!
Another federal agency under the direction of the Biden White House has found an excuse to try to block Elon Musk from buying Twitter, eliminating its leftist bias, and bringing back freedom of speech.

We've asked Science to retract the Bangladesh mask study
We've asked Science to retract the Bangladesh mask studyThe key study relied upon by the CDC and IDSA to justify mass mask wearing worldwide is wrong. We've asked the journal to retract the study. If they don't, we'll go after the journal.
People think masks work, even though they don'tEven after the Federal transportation mask mandate was rescinded, judging by the behavior I observed in multiple airports, it appears that somewhere around half the public still thinks that masks work. The mask study in Finland showed if there is an effect, it's negativeThe best science shows that, if anything, the masks are more likely to be harmful than helpful; see this excellent video by UCSF Professor Vinay Prasad on the mask study done in Finland. The Bangladesh study was widely hailed by experts as the definitive study that "proved" masks workOne of the key reasons that people think masks work is the Bangladesh study that was done by Stanford and Yale and was relied upon by both the CDC and IDSA. In fact, it's the only randomized study that we are aware of that claims masks work. The other randomized trial, the one done in Denmark, was deliberately re-written to suggest masks work because the medical journals wouldn't publish a negative study since it was counter-narrative. The BMJ courageously documented the scientific misconduct by the medical journals. What if the Bangladesh study proved nothing?So if we can show that the Bangladesh mask study actually shows that masks DO NOT WORK and we can get the paper retracted, then we've made an incredible difference. We can:
The Bangladesh mask study actually didn't prove anythingWe've shown that there is nothing shown by the Bangladesh study previously. We challenged the first author to defend his study and he failed. Badly. But the nail in the coffin is this new analysis by UK Professor Norman Fenton. Yale Professor of Economics Jason Abaluck, the first author of the Bangladesh study, reviewed Fenton's analysis. Abaluck self-determined that Fenton was incompetent so he could justify no longer talking to him. Abaluck also noted that the reason they used cluster randomization in the trial is because they weren't testing whether masks worked on individuals, but whether community masking as a health policy would make a difference: would people comply and would it subsequently reduce the rate of infection. This subtle distinction is irrelevant. At the end of the day, Abaluck's cluster-randomization study showed that there wasn't any difference in infection rate between the groups. In fact, Fenton showed that Abaluck's study was roughly equivalent to this experiment:
Fenton asked Science to retract or correct the paperOn May 2, 2022, Fenton wrote to the journal that published the paper (Science) and requested that the Bangladesh mask study be either corrected or retracted since it incorrectly states that masks work. Here is the conclusion of the paper:
The only thing that is true is that the intervention to ask people to wear masks did, in fact, increase mask wearing. The rest is wrong and needs to be retracted. What happens next is the true test of characterEveryone makes mistakes. But what they do about the mistake after it is clearly pointed out is telling. We will soon see how trustable the editors of Science are. If the journal does nothing, it will implicate the journal. Which means you shouldn't trust it in the future. Secondly, the medical community (and mainstream media) should now quickly assess whether they made a mistake in promoting a false narrative. If they publicly fail to admit their mistake at this point, they are even more deplorable than I imagined. What do you think will happen?
