Joe Biden is doing everything he can not to get elected in 2024.
We need to go over one of the more stupid stories I’ve see in a while and that’s saying a lot.
And JJ Redick responds to Kendrick Perkins comments about Nicola Jokic winning the MVP because of racism.
News
Here is some news:
- Medicare, a federal health insurance program intended for senior citizens, is partially funded by a 3.8% tax on investment income for individuals earning more than $125,000 or married couples filing jointly and earning more than $250,000. The White House contended in a Tuesday statement that “modestly increasing” the tax rate to 5% for those earning more than $400,000 would extend the solvency of the Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund by at least 25 years.
- Biden scrapped family detainment policies in 2021 as part of an effort to build an immigration system that is “orderly, safe and humane.”
- Bringing back family detainment is one of the proposals officials have floated for tightening border security despite the administration’s previous position that the practice was inhumane and harmed illegal immigrant children.
- Officials have proposed limiting the time a family can be detained to two weeks, or setting no limits at all,
- Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell warned lawmakers on Tuesday that the central bank would continue to increase the target federal funds rate as inflationary pressures remain elevated.
- Target interest rates presently sit between 4.5% and 4.75%.
- Prepare for a housing crash as rates are getting so high no one will be able to buy a house.
Peter Doocy made Kari n Jean Pierre look stupid again.
Here he is asking KJP about the drug deaths in the United States and Americans dying in Mexico. She give a complete BS answer. Listen:
KJP: “Because of the work that this President has done, because of what we've done specifically on fentanyl at the border, it's at historic lows, historic levels, that we have been able to record a number of personnel working to secure the border” pic.twitter.com/k76CK0SP8r

She just completely lying. There enough fentanyl coming over the border to kill every American many times over. This administration is doing nothing to stop it.

Good for Him
Yesterday, I played a clip of Kendrick Perkins, a former NBA star, whining that Nicola Jokic was going to win the NBA MVP because he was white. He was referring to an analysis by JJ Redick who said Jokic should win the MVP because he is averaging a triple-double for the entire season.
JJ Redick responded and it was delicious. Listen:
The only thing missing from this is Redick calling Perkins a racist which he should have done.
I’m sure this is going to piss off the big guys at ESPN because they love this type of narrative. I hope Redick doesn’t apologize because he was absolutely correct.
Dumb Story
A huge hate crime occurred in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. This is from News 7:
"A community hit by hate" – local residents are reportedly "saddened" by some tire marks on the road. pic.twitter.com/e7UoBuBWHV

So, they paint a pride flag on the road and it is now a hate crime for driving over it. What are they going to do? Give him a traffic ticket for $50 and 20 years in prison a hate crime?
I’m not even sure what he did was even a traffic violation. If you don’t want your stupid little flag being driven over, don’t paint it on the f-ing street.
What’s really ironic here is these are the type of people who would say it’s OK to burn an American flag.
Less Work Is Always Better
The need for black activists to be seen as victims continues.
According to Fox News:
Angel Jones is a visiting professor at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville whose work is grounded in critical race theory and critical race feminism.
Jones argued that Black faculty should be granted special paid time off and mental health therapy to deal with events of alleged police brutality in an article published in Times Higher Education on Feb. 23.
Jones did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether she supported bereavement leave for all minorities in oppressed categories.
“I am a proud educator who loves what I do. But before that, I am a Black woman,” she wrote. “A Black woman who is expected to return to ‘business as usual’ on Monday after seeing a member of my community murdered on Friday. Although it is customary for employees to receive support and understanding while grieving the loss of a loved one, the same care is rarely shown to the Black community when we lose someone in horrific and traumatic ways. Where’s our Black bereavement leave?”
She called campus-wide statements to students in the aftermath of racial events in the news as “obligatory” and “performative,” adding it didn’t go far enough to address Black faculty’s “trauma,” which they need to “process.”
“Where are our counseling services? Where is our grace for missed meetings and deadlines while we mourn? Yes, we have jobs to do and students to support, but we also have trauma to process.”
In order to deal with “racial battle fatigue,” the professor said funding should be allocated to the mental health of Black staff.
Racial battle fatigue refers to the “psychological and physiological consequences of experiencing racism.” Jones said the proclaimed psychological phenomenon “has been well documented and can have ‘deadly’ symptoms, including ‘suicidal thoughts.’”

Color Me Shocked
Rebel News came out with a profile of the group, and the individual, who are going out there and rewriting the great books of Western Civilization. Apparently, this is a pretty big group and have been doing it for a while.
The group is called Inclusive Minds and it has been around since 2013. This is what they say on their About page:
Founded in January 2013, Inclusive Minds is an organisation that works with the children’s book world to support them in authentic representation, primarily by connecting those in the industry with those who have lived experience of any or multiple facets of diversity.
When Inclusive Minds launched over 10 years ago, it played a valuable role in helping to raise awareness of the importance of better and more authentic inclusion in children’s books. The organisation has always evolved with the changing needs of the industry and as awareness of the need for diversity and inclusion has dramatically risen in recent years there is less need for Inclusive Minds to campaign for books to be inclusive, and a greater need for the practical services we offer in terms of helping ensure authenticity.
Inclusive Minds do not edit or rewrite texts, but provide book creators with valuable insight from people with the relevant lived experience that they can take into consideration in the wider process of writing and editing.
Over the years, many children’s book publishers in the UK (from small independents to members of the big five publishing houses) have contacted us to be connected with our network of Inclusion Ambassadors. This is a network of young people with many different lived experiences who are willing to share their insight to help them in the process of creating authentically – and often incidentally – inclusive books. They are not sensitivity readers.
We encourage book creators (usually publishers and sometimes authors and illustrators) to ask to connect with the network at the earliest possible stage of a book’s development, so that Inclusion Ambassadors can share nuances related to their lived experience as characters are created and plots are developed. This makes it very different from sensitivity reading. Involving our Ambassadors is not about cutting potentially controversial content but rather about including and embedding authenticity and inclusive voices and experiences from the outset. These connections provide valuable insight that complements the many other forms of research an author will use to ensure authentic inclusion.
We know half of what they say is BS. They do edit texts, working with publishers, and they do have sensitivity readers. These people are contracted by publishers and sometimes authors and poets, and they give their opinions on how to edit texts to be more “inclusive”. I put “Inclusive” in quotes because they exclude the author’s ideas. To be inclusive means they need to exclude.
They have a profile on the gal the is editing the Dahl books. According to Rebel News:
Jo Ross-Barrett, who describes themselves as a “non-binary, asexual, polyamorous relationship anarchist who is on the autism spectrum,” is believed to have been in charge of the secretive project to deliver a large-scale, comprehensive review of inclusion issues and potential solutions for copyright holders and publishers of one of the most famous classic children’s book collections in the world, according to National Review.
Color me shocked.
