Episode 1050 – Crime Pays!

What a surprise! The Democrats and media (but I repeat myself) have been lying about Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the illegal alien gang member deported to El Salvador.

Karmelo Anthony, the murderer of a white track athlete in Texas, not only got out of jail but got a new car. His life is looking up.

And we have a serious mental health problem in this country. I have another couple of stories that show that.

News

  • A now-deported illegal alien accused of being an MS-13 gang member that was living illegally in Maryland has a record of being a “violent” repeat wife beater, according to court records filed in a Prince George’s County, Maryland, district court by his wife.
    • The police department’s Gang Unit MS-13 Intelligence Squad conducted an interview with Abrego Garcia and contacted a “past proven and reliable source” who identified him as an active member of MS-13 with the “Westerns” clique, with the rank of “Chequeo” and the moniker of “Chele.”
    • He was stopped and suspected of human trafficking because he had seven people in his car.
    • The police contacted the FBI under Biden. They were told to take pictures of everyone in the car and let them go.
  • The Texas teen accused of fatally stabbing a high school football star at a track meet allegedly lives in a $900,000 home with his family inside a luxurious gated community — despite requesting that a judge lower his $1 million bond because of financial difficulties, according to a report.
    • Karmelo Anthony, 17, is holed up with his family at the pricey home inside the gated community of Richwoods in Frisco, Texas, after he was released from jail Monday on a reduced $250,000 bond for allegedly killing Austin Metcalf earlier this month, the Daily Mail reported.
    • They are paying $3500 a month in rent.
    • “He got a new car,” the resident told the outlet. “If you look at the license plate, it’s got a paper tag and it says it expires June 4.”
  • District Judge James Boasberg has issued an opinion stating that he has found probable cause that the federal government was in criminal contempt by refusing to comply with his order prohibiting certain deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.
    • “The Court ultimately determines that the Government’s actions … demonstrate a willful disregard for its Order, sufficient for the Court to conclude that probable cause exists to find the Government in criminal contempt,” Boasberg said in an April 16 opinion.
    • Boasberg’s order came after the Supreme Court vacated his orders and said the case was brought in the wrong court.
    • “The fact that the Supreme Court determined that this Court’s TROs suffered from a venue defect does not affect—let alone moot—the compliance inquiry presently teed up here,” he said.
  • Cody A. Balmer, the suspect charged with arson at Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro’s residence, was motivated by his perception of Shapiro’s stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, specifically regarding Gaza. According to multiple search warrants and police documents, Balmer targeted Shapiro because he believed the governor’s actions or policies were contributing to the suffering and deaths of Palestinians12345678.
    • Balmer called 911 after the attack, identifying himself and stating that Governor Shapiro “needs to understand that he will not be part of his plans for what he intends to do to the Palestinian people”12345678.
  • Don’t feel bad for Harvard.

More Proof We Have A Mental Health Crisis

Nikita Casap, a 17-year-old from Waukesha, Wisconsin, has been charged with the murder of his mother, Tatiana Casap, 35, and his stepfather, Donald Mayer, 51. Authorities allege that these killings were part of a broader extremist plot to assassinate former President Donald Trump and overthrow the U.S. government. Federal court documents reveal that Casap aimed to secure financial resources and autonomy to carry out his plan, which included purchasing explosives and a drone equipped for weapon delivery123.

Casap’s phone contained antisemitic writings advocating violence, a manifesto praising Adolf Hitler, and communications with neo-Nazi groups such as the Order of Nine Angles. Investigators also found evidence of his plans to destabilize the government through targeted assassinations and incite chaos. He allegedly shared his intentions on platforms like TikTok and Telegram and communicated with individuals in Russia about his plans125.

The bodies of Casap’s parents were discovered in their home on February 28 after being deceased for over two weeks. Casap reportedly lived with the remains before fleeing in Mayer’s vehicle, taking $14,000 in cash, passports, and other valuables. He was apprehended in Kansas later that day during a traffic stop468.

Casap faces multiple charges, including first-degree murder, conspiracy to assassinate the president, and attempted use of weapons of mass destruction. He remains in custody with a bond set at $1 million and is scheduled for arraignment on May 7137.

About Time

Idaho has recently enacted House Bill 380, making it the first state to legalize the use of firing squads for executing individuals convicted of aggravated lewd conduct with children under the age of 12. Governor Brad Little signed the legislation into law, which will take effect on July 1, 2025136.

Key Provisions of House Bill 380:

  • Death Penalty Eligibility: The law allows the death penalty for pedophiles convicted of aggravated lewd conduct with minors under 12 years old. Prosecutors must prove that defendants meet at least three of 17 aggravating factors, such as committing multiple acts of lewd conduct, using force, or transmitting a sexually transmitted disease to a minor18.
  • Mandatory Minimum Sentences: For cases involving minors under 16 that do not meet death penalty criteria, the law imposes mandatory minimum prison sentences of at least 25 years23.
  • Execution Method: Idaho has also made firing squads its primary method of execution, becoming the only state in the U.S. to do so. This decision follows challenges in obtaining lethal injection drugs and concerns about botched executions57.

Legislative and Public Reaction:

The bill received overwhelming support in the Idaho Legislature, with only a few dissenting votes. Proponents argue that it serves as a strong deterrent and aligns Idaho’s laws with stricter penalties for child sexual abuse seen in other states36. Governor Little stated that such crimes are “sickening and evil” and merit the ultimate punishment10.

Critics, including some lawmakers and advocacy groups, have raised concerns about equating justice with retribution and questioned the constitutionality of applying the death penalty to non-homicide crimes, citing past U.S. Supreme Court rulings like Kennedy v. Louisiana (2008)39.

This landmark legislation reflects Idaho’s tough-on-crime stance and marks a significant shift in criminal justice policy regarding child sexual abuse cases.

Just Why?

The city of Northglenn, Colorado, has passed a new ordinance limiting the number of pets per household to four, effective August 1, 2025. This restriction applies to a combination of dogs and cats, with a maximum of four animals allowed in total per residence124.

The ordinance was introduced following complaints from residents about excessive noise and pet waste caused by large numbers of pets in certain neighborhoods. The city council conducted extensive research and discussions before implementing the regulation24. Northglenn was previously the only municipality in Adams County without pet ownership limits45.

Residents who already own more than four pets can apply for a “previously owned pet exception” before the ordinance takes effect. This exemption requires submitting a form listing each pet’s name, breed, age, sex, and acquisition date. Failure to comply with the new law or disclose extra pets by the deadline may result in enforcement actions, including court orders mandating pet removal135.

The ordinance does not apply to puppies or kittens under six months old from the same litter living in the same household5. Similar pet ownership limits are already in place in nearby cities such as Arvada, Aurora, Brighton, and Broomfield5.

The Truth Is Out There

Summary of the Declassified CIA File: Soviet Soldiers and the “Alien Stone” Incident

A recently resurfaced, declassified Cold War-era CIA document has gone viral for its extraordinary claims: it details an alleged incident in which Soviet soldiers were turned to stone by extraterrestrials after a confrontation with a UFO, according to a report originally compiled by the KGB and later obtained by the CIA after the Soviet Union’s collapse1357.

The Alleged Incident

  • Time and Place: The event reportedly occurred in 1989 or 1990 during a Soviet military training exercise, with sources variously citing Ukraine or Siberia as the location1357.
  • Initial Encounter: Soviet troops observed a “low-flying spaceship in the shape of a saucer” hovering above their unit. For reasons not fully explained, a soldier fired a surface-to-air missile at the UFO, causing it to crash nearby1357.
  • Alien Response: Five short humanoids with “large heads and large black eyes” allegedly emerged from the wreckage. According to the two surviving soldiers, the beings quickly regrouped and merged into a single, spherical object that began to emit a buzzing and hissing sound before flaring up with an extremely bright light1357.
  • Aftermath: The explosion of light reportedly turned 23 soldiers into “stone poles” or limestone-like pillars. Only two soldiers survived, shielded by shade from the full force of the blast1357.
  • KGB Actions: The KGB is said to have transported the petrified remains and the wrecked UFO to a secret research facility near Moscow. Soviet scientists allegedly concluded that the soldiers’ molecular structure had been altered to resemble limestone, caused by an unknown energy source beyond current scientific understanding1357.

The CIA’s Assessment

The CIA document, which summarizes the KGB report and media coverage from Canadian Weekly World News and the Ukrainian newspaper Holos Ukrayiny, describes the case as “a horrific picture of revenge on the part of extraterrestrial creatures, a picture that makes one’s blood freeze.” The CIA’s commentary concludes:

“If the KGB file corresponds to reality, this is an extremely menacing case. The aliens possess such weapons and technology that go beyond all our assumptions. They can stand up for themselves if attacked.”13567

Authenticity and Skepticism

  • Source of the Document: The CIA file is not an original intelligence report but rather a summary of foreign media and KGB documents, some of which were open-source and not independently verified by the CIA2358.
  • Skepticism: Former CIA officers and analysts have expressed strong doubts about the story’s authenticity, noting that the tale has likely been distorted through multiple retellings and resembles science fiction more than credible military reporting1268.
  • Media Origins: The story was first reported in the early 1990s by sensationalist outlets and has resurfaced periodically, most recently gaining attention through podcasts and renewed public interest in UFOs358.

Broader Context

The incident is part of a broader wave of renewed curiosity about UFOs and unidentified aerial phenomena, especially following recent U.S. government disclosures and the establishment of official task forces to investigate such reports58.

I Love This!

Grizzly Pines, a private gay nudist campground in Navasota, Texas, is facing backlash for its policy excluding transgender men. The controversy began when the campground reaffirmed its cisgender-only policy in a now-deleted post on Trans Day of Visibility, citing the need to preserve “comfort” and a “shared lived experience” among cisgender men. Critics argue this exclusion contradicts LGBTQ+ values of inclusion and body positivity124.

The Houston Bears and other groups have severed ties with the venue, canceling events in solidarity with trans men. Critics within the LGBTQ+ community have labeled the policy as transphobic, questioning its justification and timing24. This incident has reignited debates about exclusion and community definitions in queer spaces124.

Episode 1049 – Another Example of a Two-Tiered Justice System

These district court judges will not stay in their lanes. It’s time for thew Supreme Court to get involved.

We have another example we have a two-tiered justice system.

And Taylor Lorenz, who was so crazy the Washington Post canned her, goes on a rant defending a murderer.

No Justice Under the Law

A judge in Collin County, Texas, has significantly reduced the bail for Karmelo Anthony, the 17-year-old high school student accused of fatally stabbing fellow student Austin Metcalf at a Frisco track meet on April 2, 2025. Originally set at $1 million, Anthony’s bond was lowered to $250,000 following a hearing on Monday, April 14. The decision came after the judge considered testimony from Anthony’s parents, his lack of prior criminal history, his age, and his ties to the community2134.

Anthony, who faces a first-degree murder charge, was released from jail after posting the reduced bond. As conditions of his release, he is under house arrest, must wear an ankle monitor, can only leave home with the judge’s permission, must check in weekly with the court bailiff, and is prohibited from using social media214.

The defense argued that the original $1 million bond was financially oppressive, noting the family’s inability to pay and the stress the case has placed on them. The judge agreed that bond should not serve as punishment but rather ensure the defendant’s appearance in court and the safety of the community. Prosecutors opposed the reduction, citing the severity of the crime and the substantial funds raised for Anthony’s defense through crowdfunding, but the judge ultimately sided with the defense214.

The incident occurred during a dispute at a high school track meet, where witnesses say Anthony stabbed Metcalf after a confrontation over seating. Anthony has claimed self-defense, but the case remains under investigation and will be presented to a grand jury1234.

If convicted, Anthony cannot face the death penalty or life without parole due to his juvenile status, in accordance with Supreme Court precedent1. The case has drawn significant public attention and debate, with both families urging the community not to politicize or escalate tensions surrounding the tragedy21.

It Gets Worse

Karmelo Anthony’s family, following his charge in the fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf at a Frisco, Texas, track meet, has announced plans to use a significant portion of the more than $400,000 raised through online donations to purchase a new home and hire private security. This decision comes amid what the family describes as a wave of “graphic and racist threats” after their home address was leaked online in the aftermath of the incident51112.

During a recent court hearing, Anthony’s father, Andrew Anthony, confirmed that the funds—originally raised for legal defense—would also be allocated for the family’s relocation and security needs. He cited the threats and the family’s inability to safely remain in their current residence as the primary reasons for these expenditures51112. The family’s attorney, Mike Howard, emphasized that the money is not a bond fund but is necessary for the family’s survival and safety, especially as Anthony’s father is currently on leave from work12.

The threats against the Anthony family reportedly escalated after their address was posted online, with some messages containing violent and racist imagery. In response, both the family and their legal team have prioritized moving to a safer location and securing private protection, in addition to preparing for Anthony’s legal defense451112.

As of April 15, 2025, the online fundraiser for the Anthony family had surpassed $420,000, with the stated intent to cover legal fees, relocation, and security costs. The case has drawn significant public attention and backlash, with some questioning the use of donated funds for purposes beyond legal defense, while others have expressed concern for the family’s safety in light of the threats received5612.

Here We Go Again

A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from revoking the legal status and work permits of more than 530,000 migrants who entered the United States under the Biden-era CHNV (Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, Venezuela) humanitarian parole program. This program, launched in 2023, allowed migrants from these four countries to fly directly into the U.S. with the support of a U.S.-based sponsor, granting them temporary legal status and work authorization for two years12345678.

Key Details

Who is affected?

  • Over 530,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela who entered the U.S. legally via the CHNV program12345678.

What did the Trump administration attempt?

  • The administration sought to terminate the CHNV program and revoke the legal status and work permits of these migrants, instructing them to leave the U.S. by April 24, 2025, or face deportation235.

What did the judge decide?

  • U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani ruled that the government cannot revoke the legal status of these migrants en masse without conducting individualized, case-by-case reviews12345678.
  • The judge stated that “early termination, without any case-by-case justification, of legal status for noncitizens who have complied with DHS programs and entered the country lawfully undermines the rule of law”24.
  • The ruling temporarily halts the administration’s plan, preserving the migrants’ legal status and work permits while legal challenges continue12345678.

Legal and Humanitarian Rationale

  • The court cited due process concerns, emphasizing that mass deportations would deny migrants a fair opportunity to challenge removal and could cause significant harm, including family separation and danger upon return to their home countries14567.
  • The judge also granted class certification, meaning the order applies to all CHNV parolees as a group58.

Broader Context

  • The CHNV program was designed to provide a legal pathway for migrants from these countries, aiming to reduce unlawful border crossings and allow for better vetting235.
  • The Trump administration argued the program was an overreach of executive authority and contributed to system strain, but the court found the administration’s approach to be legally insufficient5.
  • The Department of Homeland Security has not yet announced whether it will appeal the ruling1.

Implications

  • Migrants in the CHNV program retain their legal status and work permits for now.
  • The ruling is a significant setback for the Trump administration’s efforts to quickly dismantle Biden-era immigration policies.
  • The case will continue in court, and the migrants’ status is protected at least until a final decision is reached12345678.

The President will State It Himself

The X post by The Post Millennial captures a meeting on April 14, 2025, in the Oval Office where El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele told U.S. officials he would not deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national accused of MS-13 ties, back to the U.S., citing concerns over smuggling a terrorist into the country (Axios, 2025).

Bukele’s stance follows a controversial U.S. deportation of Abrego Garcia, despite a 2019 court order granting him “withholding from removal” status due to potential harm in El Salvador, an action the U.S. Justice Department later attributed to an administrative error (Axios, 2025).

The meeting coincides with U.S. discussions on deporting gang members, as Secretary Marco Rubio recently noted the transfer of 250 gang members, including 23 MS-13 members, to El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center, highlighting Bukele’s hardline anti-gang policies (Newsweek, 2025).

Episode 1047 – No Wonder This Was Never Reported!

A new study is released that states the obvious about Leftism.

Microsoft does what it needs to do to keep order within their company. It’s about time.

And The manifest of the Covenant school shooter is out and now we know why it was hidden for two years.

What a Shock!

A recent survey conducted by the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) and Rutgers University’s Social Perception Lab has revealed troubling levels of support for political violence among certain segments of the U.S. population, particularly those identifying as left-of-center. The survey found that 55% of self-identified leftists believe it would be at least somewhat justified to murder President Donald Trump, while 48% expressed similar views regarding Elon Musk, who currently serves as Trump’s government efficiency adviser126.

The report highlights the emergence of what it terms an “assassination culture,” characterized by the normalization of violent rhetoric and actions targeting political figures and public figures like Trump and Musk. This trend is reportedly amplified through social media platforms like BlueSky, which the study links to radical ideation and the spread of memes glorifying political violence67.

The survey also uncovered broader support for property destruction, with nearly 40% of respondents (and 57% of left-leaning participants) considering it at least somewhat acceptable to destroy Tesla dealerships in protest. These findings align with a broader pattern of hostility toward Musk and his enterprises, which have faced increased vandalism and threats since his appointment by Trump14.

The NCRI report warns that unless political and cultural leaders explicitly condemn these trends, there is a growing risk of real-world escalation. It also notes that this phenomenon is not confined to fringe elements but reflects a broader shift in public attitudes among some left-leaning groups67.

This Is How To Do It!

Microsoft recently terminated two employees, Ibtihal Aboussad and Vaniya Agrawal, following their protests during the company’s 50th anniversary celebrations. The protests centered on Microsoft’s alleged involvement in supplying artificial intelligence technology to the Israeli military, which the employees claimed contributed to human rights violations in Gaza123.

Details of the Protests:

  • Ibtihal Aboussad interrupted a keynote speech by Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman, accusing the company of selling AI weapons to Israel and being complicit in the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinians. She threw a keffiyeh scarf—a symbol of solidarity with Palestinians—onto the stage before being escorted out156.
  • Vaniya Agrawal disrupted a panel featuring Satya Nadella, Bill Gates, and Steve Ballmer, accusing Microsoft of enabling genocide and celebrating profits made from military contracts258.

Both employees were affiliated with an internal activist group called “No Azure for Apartheid,” which campaigns against Microsoft’s cloud services contract with the Israeli government38.

Microsoft’s Response:

  • Aboussad was dismissed for “acts of misconduct” that were deemed disruptive and inappropriate by the company47.
  • Agrawal had previously submitted her resignation, but Microsoft expedited her departure following her protest27.
  • In an internal memo, Microsoft emphasized its commitment to open dialogue but stated that disruptive behavior undermining business operations would not be tolerated411.

The firings have sparked broader debates about corporate ethics, employee activism, and freedom of expression within tech companies. Critics argue that Microsoft’s actions reflect a prioritization of business interests over addressing ethical concerns raised by its employees38.

No Wonder This Was Hidden

The Covenant School shooter was identified as Aiden Hale, born Audrey Elizabeth Hale, a 28-year-old transgender man and former student of the school.

  • In a passage read by Kelly on her show, dated June 6 2021, Hale wrote that Columbine shooters Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold were “gods. All those little dumb sh*ts in other school shootings during the 1990s were not gods, just cowards, even if maybe they had a reason, they left it a mystery. I realized that after knowing Columbine, I immediately became attached to it, not just the notorious outcome but the preceding evidence leading up to it.”
    • “I feel I am the reincarnation of Dylan Klebold. My thoughts of depression are forever linked to his and my experience as well.” 
  • Another entry stated, “kill all the white kids. Kill my own race” and “destroy all the white people who are teachers. Let all the black kids go unless, if I don’t like you.” 
    • One entry written months later said, “black people were given fate, given nothing, while white people get power in the White House, have all the privileges, even to white people like me. White people are born with privileges. Black people aren’t.” Hale later added, “being white sucks, but being black is so cool. Black people should rule. White people should fall, every white person who lived and died. I hate you all.”
  • In one entry dated April 12, 2022, titled “let kids choose their sex,” Hale wrote, “I only wore some nice girl clothes as a cover-up from the truth, which I denied myself all these years. And I hated all of it. It was miserable being raised a girl because I had no choice. There was lack of education, research, and medicine to help society or parents better understand transgender.”
    • The entry continued, “I didn’t know trans existed. I thought you could only be gay or bi and that’s the fate you had. But transgender is transcending way deeper to the core. There is still medicine to be approved by the FDA, and so little research has been done. If I had puberty blockers back then, I would have transitioned a long time ago, but I didn’t know you could possibly change your sex.”
    • “I’m mad that no one told me until I was 22. I feel I’m too old and too late to become a man. Now, the process takes months to years. By the time that happens, I’m 30, and then 10 years later I got a bald spot on my head and looked like an old man. Hell no. It’s best to start at 16 for shots, but my youth is over way past now, and it’s over.” 
  • “How dare God hand me a training bra when I didn’t know WTF it was? As a kid, I hated it much more. I’d like to dispose my vagina. We should all choose our gender.”
  • The next page was titled “trans man,” Kelly said, with the passage reading, “I knew I was a boy the moment first memories and development formed. Being a tomboy wasn’t a phase. Parents forced children into which the way (sic) they were biologically born. I don’t care what authority says, but no adult is fair when they don’t let their children want to choose being a boy or girl, because they think children don’t know anything.”
  • One page was titled “killer list,” and was a list of those who perpetrated the Columbine, Sandy Hook, and Parkland school shootings as well as the DC snipers, Jeffrey Dahmer, Tim McVeigh, Jim Jones, and others. 
  • The writings also included printed-out pages taped to the journal titled “I hate the American people,” with Hale writing, “white people who want to take away instead of adding more. What do you call that? America is not the land of the free, it’s a land full of idiots. It will only get worse in this country, not near enough gods like me. America and its people all destined to soon be destroyed.”

Episode 1044 – The Uncomfortable, Necessary Conversation

Let’s have an uncomfortable and necessary conversation about race relations.

Let’s Have That Uncomfortable Conversation

On April 2, 2025, a tragic stabbing at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas, claimed the life of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf, a junior at Memorial High School. The incident occurred during the UIL District 11-5A track meet at Kuykendall Stadium, where students from multiple schools were competing. Austin’s twin brother, Hunter, was present and attempted to save him after the stabbing, but Austin succumbed to his injuries shortly after being transported to a hospital126.

Details of the Incident

The altercation began under Memorial High School’s team tent when Austin reportedly asked Karmelo Anthony, a 17-year-old student from Centennial High School, to leave the tent as he did not belong to their team. Witnesses stated that Anthony responded by opening his bag and warning, “Touch me and see what happens.” When Austin pushed or grabbed him, Anthony pulled out a knife and stabbed him once in the chest before fleeing. He was later apprehended near the stadium349.

Aftermath and Reactions

Hunter Metcalf described holding his brother as he died, saying he tried to stop the bleeding but was unable to save him. Their father, Jeff Metcalf, expressed anguish over the loss and questioned how such an event could occur without adequate security measures in place67. The family has received an outpouring of community support but is focused on grieving and honoring Austin’s memory3.

Anthony was charged with first-degree murder and is being held on a $1 million bond. According to arrest reports, he claimed self-defense during his initial statements to police but admitted to stabbing Austin48. The investigation is ongoing as authorities work to piece together the full circumstances of the incident.

Community Impact

The tragedy has deeply affected students and staff at Memorial High School and raised concerns about safety at school events. The track meet was postponed and relocated, with Frisco ISD promising updated security measures moving forward59.

What is wrong with black people and people in general (some of this is not just a black problem):

  • The get-rich-quick mentality (education is not important).
  • The hip-hop culture (thug mentality).
  • The destruction of the nuclear family.
  • The loss of self-respect.
  • The loss of religion.
  • Loss of community.

I Thought You Couldn’t Do This?

A GoFundMe campaign has been launched to support the legal defense of Karmelo Anthony, a 17-year-old charged with murder following the stabbing death of Austin Metcalf at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas, on April 2, 2025. The incident reportedly began with a dispute over seating, escalating into a fatal altercation. Anthony’s family and supporters claim he acted in self-defense, while Metcalf’s family disputes this narrative128.

The crowdfunding efforts have raised significant amounts across multiple platforms. A GiveSendGo campaign has collected over $85,000 as of April 6, while GoFundMe campaigns have also been organized by supporters under titles such as “Support Karmelo Anthony’s Legal Defense” and “Support Karmelo Anthony’s Fight for Justice”234. These campaigns emphasize Anthony’s academic achievements, lack of a criminal record, and the family’s need for financial assistance to cover legal fees and other expenses13.

Colorado is currently considering House Bill 25-1312, known as the “Kelly Loving Act,” which proposes significant legal protections for transgender individuals. The bill aims to address issues such as misgendering, deadnaming, and gender-affirming care, particularly in contexts involving family law, education, and public accommodations.

Key Provisions of HB25-1312

  1. Misgendering and Deadnaming as Child Abuse:
    The bill classifies misgendering (using pronouns inconsistent with someone’s gender identity) and deadnaming (using a person’s birth name rather than their chosen name) as forms of “coercive control” in child custody cases. Courts would consider such actions when determining parental responsibilities and the best interests of the child146.
  2. Anti-Discrimination Protections:
    Misgendering and deadnaming would be explicitly defined as discriminatory acts under the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act. This would prohibit such behavior in places of public accommodation, including businesses and schools. Violators could face penalties such as fines or mandatory anti-discrimination training146.
  3. School Policies:
    Schools would be required to adopt inclusive policies regarding chosen names and gender-neutral dress codes. They would also need to accommodate any reason a student might use a name different from their legal name356.
  4. Public Entities’ Use of Chosen Names:
    Public agencies would be mandated to provide space for both legal names and chosen names on official forms. Once a chosen name is listed, it must be used on all future documentation administered by the agency67.
  5. Parental Rights Protections:
    Colorado courts would be prohibited from enforcing out-of-state laws that penalize families for supporting gender-affirming care for minors36.

Criticisms and Concerns

Critics argue that the bill could infringe on free speech rights by compelling individuals to use specific names or pronouns, even if doing so conflicts with personal beliefs. Some opponents also view the classification of misgendering and deadnaming as child abuse as overly broad and potentially harmful to parental rights15. Additionally, concerns have been raised about the administrative burden on public entities required to track chosen names5.

Broader Implications

If passed, HB25-1312 could set a national precedent for transgender protections, reinforcing Colorado’s position as a sanctuary state for gender-diverse individuals37. However, it remains controversial due to its potential impact on free speech, parental rights, and business practices.

The bill is still under consideration in the Colorado legislature, and its final form may include amendments addressing some of these concerns.

They Won’t Listen

Major corporations, including Amazon, Costco, Microsoft, and Nordstrom, are warning Washington state lawmakers that proposed tax increases could lead to a corporate exodus and harm the state’s economic stability. These companies, alongside others such as Alaska Airlines, Zillow, T-Mobile, and Puget Sound Energy, co-signed a letter urging the legislature to reconsider payroll and wealth tax proposals aimed at addressing a significant budget shortfall of $12–16 billion134.

Key Concerns Raised by Businesses

  1. Economic Impact of Taxes:
    • The proposed taxes include a statewide payroll tax modeled after Seattle’s 2020 “JumpStart” tax. This tax would impose a 5% levy on employee wages above the Social Security wage limit for companies with annual payrolls exceeding $7 million2.
    • Critics argue that these measures would increase operational costs, making Washington less competitive compared to other regions. For example, it is reportedly 30% cheaper to employ software engineers in Vancouver, Canada, than in the Puget Sound area12.
  2. Threats to Job Growth:
    • Business leaders warned that higher taxes could drive jobs out of the state. Microsoft President Brad Smith highlighted that Amazon has reduced its Seattle workforce by 10,000 jobs since the implementation of the “JumpStart” tax, while adding 25,000 jobs in Bellevue16.
    • Smith also pointed to historical examples in Europe where similar wealth taxes were abolished due to negative economic consequences, including job losses16.
  3. Unsustainable Spending Growth:
    • The letter criticized Washington’s spending trends, noting that the state’s operating budget has more than doubled over the past decade, growing by 37% in just the last four years—far outpacing population and income growth13.
    • Businesses argued that even without new taxes, existing revenue sources are projected to grow by 6.8% in the 2025–2027 biennium and 7.7% in the following biennium13.

Legislative Context

Democratic lawmakers have floated various revenue measures to address the budget gap, including payroll and business taxes. However, Governor Bob Ferguson has stated he would veto any bill containing a wealth tax due to concerns about its economic impact34. While proponents of these taxes argue they are necessary for funding public services like education and housing, opponents—including Republicans and business leaders—believe spending cuts should be prioritized instead45.

Broader Implications

The business community has warned that these tax proposals could lead to long-term damage to Washington’s economic competitiveness. Companies have already begun shifting jobs to more business-friendly regions like Idaho or British Columbia. Additionally, some wealthy residents have reportedly moved out of Washington to avoid higher taxes23.

In summary, corporate leaders are urging lawmakers to reconsider these tax hikes, emphasizing their potential to undermine entrepreneurship, discourage job creation, and harm economic stability across the state134.

The Trans Thing Just Keeps Marching Forward

Here’s is some trans news that we can’t skip. That’s because it is being ignored by the media and is really becoming a problem for women.

  • Stephanie Turner, a female fencer, was disqualified from the Cherry Blossom Open in Maryland on March 30, 2025, after refusing to compete against Redmond Sullivan, a transgender woman. Turner protested by kneeling and removing her mask prior to the match, stating that she would not fence against Sullivan because she believed it was unfair for a transgender woman to compete in a women’s event. This act of protest resulted in her receiving a black card, which disqualified her from the tournament135.
  • The governing body for high school sports in Washington State has announced that it will not ban men from women’s sports following legal threats from Democratic officials.
    • Washington state law currently requires educational agencies to allow students to participate in interscholastic sports “that most closely aligns with their gender identity.”  The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA)  previously announced that it had proposed two bylaw amendments that would limit participants in girls’ sports to students who were born as females and prevent students who were born male and now identify as female from competing in girls’ sports following multiple headline-grabbing victories by boys in Washington competing in girls’ events.
  • A transgender athlete took home first place in a varsity high jump competition at an Oregon high school meet Wednesday, roughly two years after finishing last while competing against junior varsity boys, according to a report. 
    • Lia Rose, who reportedly used to compete as Zachary, won the high jump at the Portland Interscholastic League Varsity Relays with a height of 4 feet, 8 inches, beating the second-place finisher by two inches.
  • A trans-identified male is lashing out against the New York City Tennis League Network after being banned from competing against women. Cameron ‘Cammie’ Woodman, 25, is now on a crusade to have the Network banned from using public courts by complaining to city officials.
    • Last week, Woodman played two sets against female opponents in the Lincoln Terrace Park tennis courts of Brooklyn and was victorious in both matches. One of his opponents then contacted the Tennis League Network’s CEO, Steve Chagnon, to alert him about the presence of a male in the women’s matches. The Tennis League Network is an amateur recreational league with branches nationwide.
    • Chagnon, head of the Tennis League Network, forwarded the complaint to Woodman with the accompanying message: “Can we move you over to an appropriate level Men’s Division?”
    • Woodman refused the offer, stating: “I am a transgender woman who has been medically transitioning for the past four years. I believe in my integrity as a woman player, as I play women often… I am not willing to join a men’s league where I would have a disadvantage due to my medical transition.”
    • He went on to name the woman who had sent in the complaint, and slammed her as “a very inexperienced player who wouldn’t even have rated as high as a 3.0 based on her skills,” and added that he found it “offensive” that she had brought the matter to Chagnon.
    • Woodman additionally shared a series of posts further demanding action to “fight transphobia on NY courts” and stating that the Tennis League Network “should be removed from our city’s courts for violating NY Human Rights Law”. He is calling on the New York City Parks Department and the New York City Commission on Human Rights to investigate.
  • Professional disc golf athlete Abigail Wilson walked off the tee in protest over the inclusion of a trans-identified male in the women’s competition this week. Wilson found herself being expected to compete against male participant Logan ‘Natalie’ Ryan in the Music City Open held in Nashville, and refused in an act of defiance being celebrated by women’s rights advocates the world over.
    • Wilson posted a video of her protest to her Instagram account, saying: “Females deserve to have their gender protected division be protected. This is unfair. I have worked so hard to get to this point to play on the DGPT, but the sacrifice of my career and my hard work is worth it if it means I can make a difference for other women, daughters, nieces, and the future of our sport. If you feel how wrong it is to have biological males be competing in female protected divisions in sports, now is the time to speak up and stand your ground.”
    • She added that she had been having “anxiety” about playing against the trans-identified male because of “threats of violence” at last year’s competition, referencing a terrorist threat that had suspended the Music City Open last year.
  • When Ultimate Pool crowns a women’s champion for the Pro Series event on Sunday, the winner will be a biological male. That’s because both the finalists, Harriet Haynes and Lucy Smith, are males who “identify” as women.

That’s Not Enough Justice

Anjela Borisova Urumova, a 20-year-old woman from Bristol Township, Pennsylvania, was sentenced on April 1, 2025, to 45 days to 23 months in the Bucks County Correctional Facility after filing a false police report about an alleged attempted rape and kidnapping. The incident occurred in April 2024 in the parking lot of a Redner’s grocery store in Middletown Township. Her false accusations led to the wrongful imprisonment of an innocent man, Daniel Pierson, for 31 days before her claims were disproven through a thorough investigation by law enforcement126.

Urumova initially alleged that Pierson attacked her from behind, attempted to pull down her pants, punched her, and tried to abduct her. However, inconsistencies in her account were uncovered through surveillance footage and forensic analysis of her cellphone data. Confronted with the evidence, Urumova admitted she fabricated the entire story. She later revealed that she had targeted Pierson because she found him “creepy” after seeing him and his truck in the area previously27.

In January 2025, Urumova pled guilty to seven misdemeanor charges, including filing false reports, tampering with physical evidence, and unsworn falsification to authorities. She faced a potential sentence of up to 17 years but received a reduced sentence due to her plea deal. In addition to jail time, she was ordered to serve one year of probation, undergo a mental health evaluation, pay $3,600 in restitution to the victim, and avoid any contact with him or his family368.

The case has drawn significant attention due to its impact on the victim and broader societal implications. Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn emphasized that such false accusations can erode public trust in the justice system and jeopardize legitimate cases of sexual violence16.

Episode 1039 – This Is Pure Evil!

We are going to go over a story that just broke and is hardly being covered. If you still aren’t home schooling your kids, this might convince you.

Pure Evil

According to the Daily Wire:

An LGBT activist teacher in Colorado and her trans-identifying male husband are housing a 17-year-old girl who identifies as a boy. Police say they are unable to intervene to bring the teen home to her mother.

JoAnn Smotherman, a former math teacher at Durango High School, took the teen, one of her students, into her Durango home in December when the girl left home after a fight with her mother. JoAnn is married to Vivian Smotherman, a trans-identifying man who ran for Colorado State Senate as a Democrat last year.

I’d like to know Why she is a “former” teacher.

The teen’s mother, Cynthia Stein, has gone to the Smothermans’ home and attempted, unsuccessfully, to take back her daughter. She called in the police, but the officers who responded to the scene said they would not force the teen to go home, according to the police report and body cam footage of the incident obtained by The Daily Wire.

The situation is the culmination of months of outside influences on the vulnerable teen, her mother told The Daily Wire.

The 17-year-old girl has identified as a boy since the fall and now uses a unisex name. She has been diagnosed with autism, ADHD, an eating disorder, depression, and anxiety, according to medical records provided by her mother. At school, the teen was seeing a counselor, without her mother’s knowledge, who advised the girl to terminate parental notification and encouraged her to participate in LGBT support groups, her mother said.

The turn to radical gender ideology came amid difficult times at home. Stein underwent treatment for an aggressive cancer in 2023, and believes that crisis deeply affected her daughter, who became “very withdrawn” from the family.

I am amazed that a school cannot give an aspirin to a kid without permission but a school can give psychiatric care without permission. These are people who are educated to manipulate people. A young girl with emotional problems can be easily manipulated like believing she is the opposite sex.

“Smotherman stepped in and took advantage of my kid,” Stein told The Daily Wire. “She’s just inserted herself into my family, and I still can’t get her out.”

“I just can’t stress to you enough how floored I am that this woman has gotten away with what she has, and that there is nothing that I can do to make it right or hold her accountable,” Stein said.

This, by definition, is grooming.

On November 2, the teen ran away from home after her mother told her they were moving to Denver to be near family, and to put some distance between the teen and local influences. Law enforcement and Child Protective Services got involved, and the child ultimately went home to her mother.

However, the girl left home again on December 21 after a fight with her mother. This time, she went straight to the Smothermans’ house, her mother later discovered, although she initially did not know where her daughter was and filed a runaway report with the police.

On January 5, Stein went with two friends to the Smothermans’ house and tried to retrieve her daughter. Stein called the police, and two deputies with the La Plata County Sheriff’s Office responded and conducted a welfare check on her daughter.

In the police report, the first officer wrote, “Being that [the teen] is roughly two months from turning 18, has filed for emancipation, has had recent involvement with CPS including investigations into the difficulties at Cynthia’s home, did not wish to return home, has stayed with Jo Ann when experiencing problems at home in the past and appeared to be of sound mind, in good health and spirits in what appeared to be a safe place, engaged in constructive activities and was not in distress, I did not force [the teen] to leave.”

Before the police incident, Stein was also served legal documents to emancipate her daughter from her custody, a move she believes JoAnn Smotherman was behind.

On February 23, Smotherman posted on Facebook asking for money to continue paying a lawyer for a “young transman.”

“Hello Friends. I need your assistance again. Some months ago we raised the needed funds to provide a lawyer to a young transman,” Smotherman wrote. “The lawyer has successfully protected this young man from his abusers. However, our retainer ran out a couple weeks ago. Dispite [sic] the lack of funds, the lawyer continued working on the case, which is now coming to a successful close. We need to raise another $1000 to pay for services that have already been provided. Anything raised beyond what is owed to the lawyer will go to updating the young man’s gender marker and name so that he can be further protected from the coming challenges. If you are able to help, please message me for how to contribute.”

The emancipation request was ultimately denied. A “small victory,” Stein said.

JoAnn Smotherman did not respond to a request for comment. The lawyer who filed the emancipation petition likewise did not respond.

Asked why law enforcement was unable to return the teen to her mother, Sergeant Chris Burke with the La Plata County Sheriff’s Office pointed to law enforcement’s policy on juvenile non-offenders, which states that juveniles may be taken into custody for their own safety if they are abused, neglected, under the influence of substances, or an illegal alien.

JoAnn’s Facebook page is chock full of posts promoting LGBT activism. Her profile picture shows her at “Drag Bingo in Denver.” Other posts ask for volunteers for Pride and Transgender Day of Remembrance events. A cartoon she posted accuses parents of pushing their gay kids away and then accusing the LGBT crowd of “grooming” them. She also posted to “protect the pride flag” in public schools. Recently the Durango school district had a months long saga over the Black Lives Matter and “progress pride” flags, and the school board ultimately decided both are allowed in schools.

Vivian Smotherman has been a public figure since last year when he ran for Colorado State Senate. He was promoted by local Democrats but ultimately lost to his Republican opponent.

The teen’s mother had at least one advocate in her corner — the Colorado Parent Advocacy Network (CPAN)​ spent months supporting Stein as she navigated the situation, reaching out to the police, lawyers, and the media.

“CPAN has supported Cindy since she first filed her incident report. This case is a devastating example of what happens when schools and state systems bypass parents. We’re calling on lawmakers and citizens to demand accountability and protect families,” Lori Gimelshteyn, CPAN’s executive director told The Daily Wire.

The situation has caused Stein and her family a world of “chaos and hurt,” Stein said. Her daughter has not contacted her since she left the house, although the teen did come by to get some of her stuff in January.

The teen’s mother said she had been giving her daughter Hallmark cards telling her she loves her through friends of hers who are employees at the local grocery store, where the teen worked. However, Stein said she recently heard her daughter quit that job.

The teen’s lawyer has demanded Stein stop contacting her daughter and turn over the account numbers for the college fund and inheritance set up by Stein’s parents, the teen’s grandparents, she said.

“Because I love my child, I have honored that request,” Stein said.

The teen turns 18 on Tuesday, and is still living with the Smothermans.

“I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that I’m heartbroken not to be able to share this milestone with her,” her mother said. “She and I actually share the same birthday so it’s a double whammy for me. I’m devastated at the idea that she thinks I hate her and never want her in my life again.”

Episode 568 – How Low Can He Go?

The White House continues to support violence against the Supreme Court members.

Biden approvals craters and the media is trying to figure out how to avoid the red wave that’s coming in November.

And justice appears to be non-existent in New York City.

 

Kamalaisms

Poor Kamala can’t seem to get through one interview without making an ass out of herself.

Here, she is being asked if the Biden administration missed the boat with trying to codify Roe versus Wade even though they knew that it was going to be overturned a month before the ruling was released thanks to the leak which has yet to be discovered (I wonder why). She gives the type of answer we have grown accustomed to:

Wow, I have nothing to say. I just hopes she keeps doing these interviews because I am highly entertained.

 

It’s On Them

So, last week, Justice Kavanaugh was having dinner with his wift at Morton’s Steakhouse (a very good but over-rated restaurant). While there, protestors gathered out front and started getting loud. Kavanaugh decided to leave the restaurant thought the back to escape the crowd.

Many online thought it was a rather cowardly act but let’s not forget he was with his family and someone did try to assassinate him only a couple of months ago. Karin Jean Pierre was asked about this and her response was as tone-deaf as usual:

This is big talk from her because no one on the right does this crap. No one is forcing her to leave a restaurant because they’ve assembled in fron. No one has tries to assassinate her or her family.

But it wasn’t just her.

Pete Buttigieg’s husband, Chasten, released a tweet

“Sounds like he just wanted some privacy to make his own dining decisions.”

Again approving of the protests that are affecting every moment of his live and approving os the potential violence against Kavanaugh and his family. Again, nobody is protesting him and no one attempted to assissinate him. Of course, he was ravaged online.

But Pete was asked about this. Again, these people just don’t give a damn even though all this protesting is illegal! Listen:

He just contradicted himself. He said they should be free from harassment and intimidation but the people have a right to protest. If they are “protesting” at his house or while he’s eating at a restaurant isn’t this harassment and intimidation? Of course, Pete’s opinion would be different if he was protested while he was at a restaurant or at home. I’m sure he would have a different opinion if someone had attempted to assassinate him or his family.

Anything that happens is now on the Democrats hands. If one hair on any of these justices heads is harmed, it will be on them. But I’m sure they don’t care. I have said it before and I’ll say it again that I think they want someone to assassinate a justice or two so Joe Biden can pick a couple of Leftist justices and change the balance of the court. That’s a cynical opinion but someone is going to have to show me evidence that changes my mind.

Here We Go Again

Joe Biden’s approval ratings have plummeted in a couple of polls this weekend.

The Civiqs Poll’s daily tracking survey of registered voters found that his approval is at 30% while his disapproval is at 57%. All age groups and special interest groups had him under 40%. The worst group was ages 18-34 which had it at 21%.

In a separate poll, Interactive Polls, has him down to 29%. Biden’s approval rating is historically low. According to Gallup, five presidents have sunk into the 20s. Those presidents include Harry Truman (22 percent), Richard Nixon (24 percent), Jimmy Carter (28 percent), George H.W. Bush (29 percent), George W. Bush (25 percent).

The New York Times ran a poll that says more than two-thirds (69%) of independents disapprove of Biden’s job performance — with nearly half (48%) disapproving “strongly.” Only 26% want Biden to run again in 2024. It found 77% thought the country was in trouble with 13% thinking the country is on the right track.

Here’s the thing, Biden doesn’t have a floor. His approval rating could be in the teens. His base (which is the Left) is tired of him and you see it in the newspapers. Moderate Democrats, Independents and minorities are struggling the worst and see nothing is getting better. He has a 36% approvals from Hispanics and a 56% with blacks (down from 88%). With Democrats, he’s down to 58% from 92% when he was elected. So expect this to be in the teens when the news comes out that we are in a recession, which is coming.

Biden is not helping himself here. This weekend, he released a tweet (well, his intern did) that got a lot of flack:

He got skewered over this tweet.

This is coming from a guy who said the buck will stop with him when he became President but all he’s been doing is blaming everybody. He’s blamed Russia. He’s blamed Trump. He’s blamed Republicans. He’s blamed big business. He’s blamed small business. He’s blamed the people.

This obviously is not sitting well with the public looking at his polls. People know Democrats run the Presidency, Senate and House but nothing is getting done.

And, of course, he’s being mocked because he went to Delaware again this weekend.

Abortion is not working. In a few polls, abortion is shown to be tenth on the list of important issues at 5% of people are concerned about it.

So with all this happening and an election approaching and nothing to run on, what are they going to do? How about start another pandemic?

The media is really pushing monkey pox but this one doesn’t seem to be going really well. Apparently it’s only spread by sex between gay and bisexual men. That’s means most of the country is not going to have too much of an issue with this.

Omicron now has a fifth variant that the media is pushing will be much worse than any variant. China is even shutting down again (remember, they said they only had 5000 deaths). Well, they’re pushing it and no one seems to care.

Everything Democrats keep pushing is going nowhere. If Biden wants to save the party in November, and he’s running out of time, he’s going to have to change his policies.

This is Justice?

In an absolutely horrid story last week. A bodega owner in New York City defended himself from a career criminal and is now facing second degree murder charges. Here’s the story:

  • A 61-year-old bodega employee, Jose Alba, who is an immigrant from the Dominican Republic and a naturalized citizen with three children was working late one night.
  • A woman came into the store to by chips but her EBT card (yep, she is on food stamps) didn’t have the funds to buy the chips.
  • The two got into an argument and the woman left to get her boyfriend who turns out to be an unemployed ex-con.
  • The man was Austin Simon, 35, who had served prison time for assaulting an officer.
  • Simon goes behind the counter and starts assaulting Alba with Simon’s girlfriend cheering him on.
  • Alba grabs a knife and stabs Simon three times, killing him.
  • All this was caught on camera. The video was made public.
  • Alba was arrested, put in Riker’s Island and given a $250,000 bail.
  • The Left-wing DA, Alvin Bragg, wants to charge him with 2nd degree murder.
  • A judge did lower the bail to $50,000 and Alba was able to make bail but he did have to spend time in Riker’s Island.

With crime being what it is and criminals being released without bail, this seems incredible to me especially since it is so obviously self-defense from a human being that probably should have never been on the streets because of DAs like Bragg.

This is not being taken well:

  • The bipartisan group of City Council members said the DA’s controversial, progressive approach to law enforcement was “rewarding the guilty and punishing the innocent.”
  • Mayor Eric Adams also condemned the arrest, stating: “My heart goes out for this hard-working, honest New Yorker that was doing his job in his place of business, where a person came in and went behind the counter and attacked him.”
  • United Bodegas of America officials announced Saturday they would meet with the prosecutor on Tuesday to discuss Jose Alba’s case.
  • United Bodegas of America posted his bail since Alba couldn’t afford it.

The DA is still investigating the incident but the pushback is so hard, I doubt he will be prosecuted.

Episode 518 – When the Narrative Crashes

What happens when a crisis goes against the narrative? Let’s talk about the Sacramento mass shooting.

 

Never Let a Good Crisis Go to Waste

A tragedy occurred in Sacramento, California last weekend. Of course, there is a narrative that could be wound around it by the Leftists. As usual, it is another story that was actually created by bad Leftist policy. Let’s take a look at it.

According to the The Sacramento Bee:

Six people were killed and 12 others were injured in a mass shooting in downtown Sacramento early Sunday, transforming a section of the city normally teeming with nightlife into a horrific crime scene of blood, shattered glass and grieving relatives. The death toll, and the number of wounded, made the bloodbath in the vicinity of 10th and K streets the worst mass shooting in Sacramento’s history.

Here’s what happened:

  • The shooting happened just after 2 a.m in an area with a bunch of dance clubs.
  • There was a a large fight that started among multiple people.
  • The suspects started shooting at each other.
  • The shootout took place in a 2 by 4 block radius, so this was a huge fight.
  • There were hundreds of rounds fired.
  • Here’s what the police didn’t know:
    • How many shooters there were.
    • Why the shooting took place.
    • Whether the shooting was targeted or indiscriminate.
    • Who the shooters were.

Needless to say, it is hard to really report on anything about this shooting or come up with any conclusions, right? It took 18 hours before police even removed the bodied because they had no idea what was happening. They were collecting videos from phones to get clues.

But this doesn’t stop the media from going off.

 

The Narrative.

The first narrative is that this was a mass shooting. This does fall under the definition of a mass shooting but most people think of one person who is pissed off at someone and then just starts shooting. This wasn’t the case here. At all.

Of course then the media spit out how there are 12,000 mass shootings in the United States this year. That’s an exaggeration. But they did say there were around 120 mass shootings. Of course, when you look at each of case, one one would shrug at whether or not that case would be a mass shooting. For example, a father got into a fight with his in laws, shot them (they survived) and then shot a police officer in the leg (he survived) and was arrested. This is considered a mass shooting. Gang violence, including drive-by shootings, is considered a mass shooing.

Why does this matter? Because there is a big difference between some nut job taking out 10 people versus a gang member  shooting at other gang members and hitting innocent people. With the nut job, it is hard to argue against gun control (sort of). With the gang member, no so much.

The media went off on gun control. President Biden said he is going to sign an executive order limiting ghost guns and magazine sizes. California is looking at implementing an additional 100 laws restricting guns. Mind you, California has some of the most strict rules on guns second only to New York.

CNN, MSNBC, the AP, New York Times, the Washington Post all had articles about how “gun violence” is a disease in this country. Even the Sacrament Kings head coach, Steve Kerr, said we need some “common sense” gun control. Of course, no one defines what “common sense” gun control is. My guess it’s banning all guns.

This is what they were talking about all Sunday and half of Monday. Then, it just stopped.

 

The Truth

The Post Millennial revealed:

On Tuesday, Sacramento police arrested 27-year-old Smiley Martin, who remains in the hospital for injuries he sustained during the shooting, and faces charges of possession of a machine gun and possession of a firearm by a prohibited person.

  • Martin has a lengthy criminal record.
    • Robbery.
    • Carrying illegal firearms.
    • Lying to police.
    • Resisting arrest.
  • In 2017 he was given a 10 year sentence for beating his “girlfriend” within an inch of her life.
    • They were fighting and she ran out of the apartment they were in.
    • He followed her to the street and beat her.
    • She ran back into the apartment and followed.
    • In the apartment, he beat her again.
    • He dragged her by the hair and put her in his car and beat her again with a belt.
  • He applied for parole in 2021 and the parole board recommended he stay in prison because of his violent nature and he would offend again.
  • He was released a year later after serving only four years.
  • He was a gang member and got into some argument with rival gang members and that’s when the shooting started.

Oh, I forgot, he is black. Now do you see why the media stopped reporting this?

Now, let’s take a look at the shooting itself:

  • The people he was shooting at were black.
  • He was illegally carrying a gun (felons can’t carry firearms).
  • The gun was modified to make it an automatic. That’s illegal.
  • He was out on parole serving less than half of his sentence even though the parole board said he should stay in prison because he is violent and would commit more crimes.

The system failed in this one. Gun control would have done nothing to stop this. Instead of pointing to the real problem; which are gangs, crime and a loose justice system, it is better to just ignore it.

Do you know who knows that? Sacramento County District Attorney Anne Marie Schubert. She was on the Lawrence Jones’ show this weekend on Fox News and she had some really common sense things to say. She had written a letter to keep Smiley Martin in prison. Here’s what she said:

Do Something NOW!

Because of this crime in Sacramento, Democrats have been saying that ghost guns are the primary reason for gun violence. A ghost gun is defined as a gun that is put together from a kit and has no serial numbers. But there’s a problem. The government defines ghost guns as weapons with no traceable serial numbers. The government claims that there were 24,000 ghost guns recovered.

So what is the problem? The government considers a gun which had its serial number scraped off. In other words, a criminal makes a non-ghost gun into a ghost gun. That’s illegal. That report of 24,000 ghost guns doesn’t discuss the number of guns that were acquired and built from kits.

I also want to point out that California, where the “mass” shooting takes place, already the most restrictive gun control policies and requires the serialization of legally obtained kits to create a ghost gun.

This rule has been in the works for months, but the Left is getting impatient. Chuck Schumer said in a statement:

“It’s high time for a ghost gun exorcism before the proliferation peaks and before more people get hurt — or worse. My message is a simple one: No more waiting on these proposed federal rules.” Ghost guns are “too easy to build, too hard to trace and too dangerous to ignore.”

Do you notice the answer for everything to a Leftist is to take things away? Take away free speech. Take away our freedom to assemble. Take away our ability to go to church. Take away our money. Take away our businesses. Take away our guns (which is God-given and is used to protect all of the above).

Here’s what the rule is going to address:

  • Change the current definition of a firearm under federal law to include unfinished parts, like the frame of a handgun or the receiver of a long gun.
  • Require manufacturers and dealers who sell ghost gun parts to be licensed by the federal government and require federally licensed firearms dealers to add a serial number to any unserialized guns they plan to sell.
  • Require firearms dealers to run background checks before they sell ghost gun kits that contain parts needed to assemble a firearm.

There is some pushback.

  • Republicans are stating that Joe Biden cannot just create a rule limiting gun ownership. It’s a Congressional job and then even that is limited because of the second amendment.
  • Gun advocates plan to sue and will probably win to stop this.

Episode 452 – The Real Terrorism

A terrible act of terrorism hits Wisconsin. But who are the real terrorists?

 

News

Here are some news stories that came out that I shouldn’t skip:

  • President Biden took a physical.
    • The President has experienced increasing frequency and severity of “throat clearing” and coughing during speaking engagements. He has exhibited such symptoms for as long as I have known him, but they certainly seem to be more frequent and more pronounced over the last few months. It is acknowledged that this perception may be artificially confounded by the undeniable fact that, as President, a much greater attention is directed toward his public engagements as compared to that which he experienced in previous positions. Nevertheless, this symptom is clearly present, and warranted detailed investigation.
    • The President’s ambulatory gait is perceptibly stiffer and less fluid than it was a year or so ago. He has several reasonable explanations for this in his orthopedic history, but again, a detailed investigation was appropriate.
    • He did not appear to take a cognitive exam.
  • President Biden has indicated that he is going to run for re-election. Wow, at 36% approval rating, that’s going to go well.
  • Finally, Joe Biden has decided to release 50 million barrels of oil. Sounds like a lot. We use 18 million barrels of oil a day. If we do the math, that extra oil will get us halfway through Friday.

Black Supremacy, Domestic Terrorism?

Something you are not going to hear a lot about on CNN and MSNBC is how a 39-year-old black man named Darrell Brooks Jr., drove his car through a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin. So far, 5 have been killed and over 48 have been injured including 10 kids.

There is very little information on this case and trust, because he is black, the media won’t get that information out anytime soon. He’s got a record to length of my arm including two open felony cases ($1000 and $500 bail), he has served very little jail time because Wisconsin is a social justice state, and he’s a sex offender.

Here he is explaining how he got into trouble for sleeping with a 16-year-old:

He is a BLM supporter and was heavily against the police. He was bonded out on $1000 bail on Friday.

So tell me, does the justice seem fair? Why was this guy on the street? White supremacy?

https://www.dailywire.com/news/at-least-5-dead-40-injured-after-driver-plows-into-christmas-parade-possible-suspected-identified

 

Let’s Take a Look

The media is being really quiet about this guy. It looks like there’s a reason.

The media, with the little information they put out, screwed even that little information. They first reported that Brooks was being chased, fleeing from another crime scene. I wasn’t surprised about this lie because that would let the media blame the police for keeping the chase going and that caused the accident, not the black criminal.

That story turned out to be false.

So was it terrorism? The Waukesha police chief says “no”. This guy has a long criminal history including battery, domestic violence, cocaine possession and resisting arrest. We also can’t forget he’s a registered sex offender for having sex with a 16-year-old. He was also on bail for two pending felony charges and three misdemeanor charges (that’s part of the problem). Earlier this month, the suspect was arrested for allegedly punching his child’s mother in the face and hitting her with his car at a gas station. The bail amounts? One for $500 and the second one was more severe, $1000. Right now, the Wisconsin DA admits the bail amounts are way too low and there is an investigation into what happened. More on that later.

His social media account does show that he is a Black Lives Matter supporter, that he hates Republican politicians and media, and he was spewing black nationalistic quotes from people like Malcom X.

But was this terrorism.

Matt Walsh of the Daily Wire thinks that this was terrorism based on the videos (he appeared to be aiming at people), the location (this was only a few miles from Kenosha) and the timing (two days after the Rittenhouse verdict).

What do I think? It definitely is a form of terrorism. But there are a few things in the video that tell me this may not have been intentional, planned terrorism. The video shows that, though he looks like he’s in a hurry, he was being chased by the police. I cannot be sure when the chase started and we have not been told. In the video, he does look like he is trying to avoid people not aiming at them. There was one video that showed Brooks driving by the sidewalk and he had a clear shot at a child. All he had to do was veer a little right to take her out. He didn’t.

The real terrorism is crime. People are not safe anywhere. This guy had no business being on the street. I’ll go a step further, he had no business being out of prison. This is a career felon. He cannot be rehabilitated. He should be spending the rest of his life in prison. This guy was going to take a life. That’s because he doesn’t care about life. He showed that in the video I played earlier.

In the 1990s, a bunch of states had a three strikes law. These laws stated that someone who committed three felonies were automatically sentenced to life in prison because they were see as career criminals. Even California had it. But blue states like California got rid of the three strikes laws because of social justice. Jails and prisons are seen as evil places that victimizes people, especially people of color.

Crime rates in the United States have gone through the roof. The Left wants to defund the police, close jails and prisons, and end bail. They are responsible for the terror they have unleashed on this country. Wisconsin is an example of this. Instead of changing their tune, the Left just doubles down.

Doubling Down

The day after this tragedy, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez posted a tweet about a letter she sent requesting that New York eliminate cash bail because people of color are being kept in jail awaiting their trials.

Couple of things here:

  • Just because someone hasn’t been convicted of a crime does not mean that they did not commit a crime.
  • Typically when someone is given a high bail it’s because of the seriousness of the crime and a preview of the evidence given to judge at bail hearing.
  • Bail is made to ensure that the suspect comes back to court. High bail is used when the judge is pretty sure he won’t come back to court.
  • The judge also wants to ensure that the suspect won’t commit another crime.
  • I also find it funny that she wants to release criminals for social justice but she wanted Kyle Rittenhouse thrown in prison for life for the sin of defending to himself.
  • Finally, why would she say this the day after a guy ran over 53 people, killing 5, and he was out of jail because because of an inappropriately low bail.

She got a lot of crap about this on Twitter:

  • Ben Shapiro, The Daily Wire: “Your timing is…odd.”
  • Mike Cernovich, political commentator: “The day after a massacre occurred in Wisconsin by a violent criminal released under bail reform policies, AOC posts this.”
  • Dana Loesch, radio host: “Because Waukesha wasn’t bad enough apparently.”
  • Matt Walsh, The Daily Wire: “Holy sh**. @AOC is a demonic sociopath. A guy out on $1,000 bail just mowed down a bunch of women and children, and her immediate response is to ensure that even more violent criminals are released back into their communities. These people are really, truly, diabolically evil.”
  • Erick Erickson, radio host: “The Squad really is a House Freedom Caucus parody project, right? I refuse to believe these people aren’t part of a satirical project poking fun at the left.”
  • Matt Whitlock, political strategist: “The day after a man kills 5 people and injures 48 while out on a $1,000 bond (after trying to kill someone ELSE with his car), AOC comes out with a letter arguing that bails are too high. Can’t make it up.”
  • Tom Fitton, Judicial Watch: “The extremist Left opposes incarceration, in principle. Don’t be distracted by arguments about bail, criminal justice reform, etc. The communist revolutionaries believe the criminal justice system has no moral authority to jail anyone (other than their political enemies).”
  • Dan McLaughlin, National Review: “Today was really not the day to be pushing to get more dangerous people out on bail. Really, really not.”

But it isn’t just AOC. Another dumbass, Rashida Tlaib, was interviewed by Axios reporter Jonathan Swan about a bill she proposed that would release all federal prisoners. It didn’t go well for her:

This is the problem with Leftists. They are so busy tearing down the systems of the United States, they have no answer as to the damage that could be done not do they have a replacement to the system they’re tearing apart.

She also knows that her bill will cause a severe backlash. It will make lives worse for a lot of people. She is lying about who it will affect and the extent of the bill she wrote. She needs to make it look good. She doesn’t want you to know her bill would release terrorists, serial killers and the leadership of hate groups like the Aryan Nation. Hey, I think these people are mentally ill too but I don’t want them on the streets.

Finally, look at how blasé she is about it. Her stupid bill is not going to affect her life. She is an elite. She has private security. It’s our lives that are going to be f-ed.

Conclusion

I have said this before and I’ll say it again. I think there should be some reforms. I think there should be some rehabilitation for prisoners if they are going to get out. I think prisoners should work in meaningful ways to help that rehabilitation.

But I also believe that prison is there for one real reason: punishment. It’s justice for the victim. Prison should be the lack of freedom, it should be miserable and it should be hard. And, if someone is there for life, we shouldn’t give a damn about their suffering, comfort or rehabilitation. They should get stuck in their cells and rot.

Episode 374 – Clueless

Bill Cosby is free because the system worked, not because he is innocent.

Leftist policies aren’t helping crime and Dems are trying to find a new narrative.

And California is a crap show and they are starting the second act.

 

Justice Can Suck

In a surprise ruling, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court threw out the conviction of sexual assault against a woman known as Andrea Constand. Cosby was convicted of drugging and having sex with the woman when she was unable to consent. Cosby, apparently, had done this multiple times throughout his life but the statute of limitations prevented him from being convicted by more women.

This is what happened:

  • During the investigation, the initial District Attorney said that they could not try Cosby for the crime for lack of physical evidence. It would turn out to be a he said/she said case.
  • Cosby was told he would not be tried. This eliminates the 5th Amendment protections.
  • Cosby was being sued by the woman and testified in the civil trial. He admitted doing what he was initially accused of.
  • A new prosecutor took over and used Cosby’s testimony in the civil trial against Cosby in a new criminal trial.
  • This violated his 5th Amendment rights. Kind of an easy call.
  • The other issue that should have been handled by the judge during the criminal trial was the testimony of the other women who accused Cosby. This should have been stopped because it is not evidence and is prejudicial.
  • Cosby was convicted and sentenced to 3-10 years. He has already been through a parole hearing after two years and was denied.
  • The case finally go to the state supreme court which overturned the case due to prosecutorial misconduct.
  • Cosby cannot be tried again because of double jeopardy.

After he was released, Cosby and his representatives made a statement. It was a pretty silly statement:

Couple things about this:

  • Bill Cosby is not innocent. He got off on a technicality.
  • The prosecution bungled this thing from the start.
  • This shows that the #MeToo movement probably influenced the court system.
  • Though it is not fair because Cosby is guilty, the system worked. Due process was violated by an over anxious DA and Cosby was let go. Remember that this could happen to you and you may be innocent.

Gaslighting

The Left is in trouble. Crime is out of control and, suddenly, their talk of defunding the police is becoming very unpopular. They have decided that they need to take a different route on this defunding the police thing. Best way to do that is start lying.

There are a few lies they are going to push. the first is the most idiotic. It’s the Republicans that are for defunding the police. Listen to Jen Psaki making this crazy proclamation:

Even Peter Duecy seems absolutely shocked by this statement. He sat there and just stared at her. He didn’t ask her another question about it until the next day and she just doubled-down on it.

Something to be aware of: American Rescue Plan did have some money for law enforcement. But it also had about $2 trillion on other garbage. There was no way Republicans, in their right mind, would have approved this bill. It was a garbage pork bill. Just because the Republicans passed on one good thing to get rid of a thousand bad things doesn’t mean that they are against the police.

But that’s not what the media is pushing. They bought Jen’s crap hook, line and sinker.

Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post released an op-ed saying:

Needless to say, this was not embraced on Twitter:

Yeah, this crap isn’t going to fly. There are terabytes of images from Twitter that show nothing but Leftists screaming about getting rid of the police. What’s worse for them is that their policies are actually defunding the police.

This Broad Again

Lori Lightfoot, the horrid mayor of Chicago, has a better way of explaining crime.

What crime? There’s no crime here.

First, listen to this reporter’s question. It really attacks Lightfoot:

Wow:

  • He points out that the crime in Chicago is insane.
  • His cutting Lightfoot off is pissing her off.
  • He lists several he profile crimes in the recent data.
  • He shows how the culture has changed so much that they now call the “Shopping District” the “Homeless Encampment”.
  • She cuts him off because he’s absolutely right about everything.
  • Then he really lays into her with his question.

Her answer leads to a bigger “wow”.

  • No, we have the facts.
  • People are leaving the city in droves because of the alignment.
  • 40% of residents have said they are going to leave Chicago and a substantial number have already left.
  • She said the 32 businesses have open doors within Chicago. Question: How many have left? I bet there are more than 32.
  • As far as crime going down, that is just a lie. Crime in Chicago is going up. Each weekend is averaging over 50 shootings! That’s per weekend not week. She’s just lying.

I also want to point something out and this is not a criticism. Lightfoot seems to be shaking a lot. Could she have a disorder of some kind like Parkinson’s Disease? I do not mean to make fun of her and I don’t wish that horrid disease on anyone but I have seen several interviews with her and her shaking is something I have noticed every time.

California Really Has It On Point

Why Not? It’s Not Their Money

San Francisco, unable to control their homeless problem has come up with an idea: create a city sponsored homeless encampment. The city of Los Angeles, that has over 60,000 homeless people, is watching with great interest.

  • San Francisco has six city sanctioned homeless encampments throughout the city.
  • The services offered include food, bathrooms, showers and community services such as placement programs.
  • Other services that are not mentioned in the article include needle exchanges.
  • The tents are kept separate for COVID reasons. This means there aren’t a lot of tents in one area (typically 20).
  • There are no rules. The people could come and go as they wished. No consequences.

Of course, Jeff Kositsky who runs the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, blames the United States for the homeless problem. He said:

The dynamic on the streets “has to do with the failures of our brand of capitalism, institutional racism, a broken behavioral health system, and none of us who do this work, we’re not going to fix that. What we’re trying to do is manage a really deep systemic issue where homelessness is a very visual depiction of our failures as a society.”

Of course, it has nothing to do with the crappy policies of California and San Francisco that made leasing an apartment in California almost impossible.

At first, it was thought it would cost $2600 per person per month to keep these encampments. Now, with all the services and food, it has been found that it costs between $61,000-70,000 per tent, mostly because more people are living in them.

Good job, California! Why to spend money that isn’t yours!

This is how we fix this problem:

  • First, it is not a right to live on the street making others lives miserable.
  • There are three types of people on the street for the most part:
    • Drug addicts.
    • Mentally ill.
    • Those that like it.
  • Those that live on the streets because they like it need to find another place.
  • The other two do not need jails. Bring back the sanitarium system.

That’ll Help Too

A bill introduced by California state Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) that decriminalizes possession of psychedelic drugs in the state made progress Tuesday after he removed a potential date-rape drug from the legislation.

According to the Associated Press, people 21 and older can use:

  • Mushrooms.
  • Mescaline.
  • LSD.
  • MDMA (Ecstacy)

Wiener had to remove ketamine from the bill because it is commonly used as a date rape drug.

Wiener said:

“People’s lives are literally transformed because of these substances.” Fox News has reported regarding recent research into the use of “psychedelic drugs to treat depression, drug addiction, PTSD, and a range of other mental health afflictions.”

I’m not a fan of drug legalization:

  • We have a lot of problems in our cities now because of drugs.
  • There are no consequences. Drug addicts become defacto wards of the state using my tax payer money to support their addictions.
  • Drug abuse is also lowering the standard of living for everyone, not just the drug addicted.
    • More accidents.
    • More homeless.

This is not going to fix California. It is going to get worse.

Episode 372 – Keep Digging That Hole

Joe Biden continues to miss the point and be old and Kamala Harris’ “leadership” is not helping his administration at all.

And when are the idiot Olympics athletes going to get it?

 

Are You Kidding Me?

Crime, especially violent crime is up like crazy over the last year and a half. Joe Biden decided to answer the call by condemning what everyone thought he would condemn: guns.

So his new “crime prevention” program will focus on:

  • Stronger background checks.
  • Banning “assault” rifles.
  • Banning ghost guns.
  • Banning high capacity magazines.
  • And expanding community policing. Whatever that means.

Biden touted the same BS lines he talked about before.

As far as “assault rifles” and high capacity magazines, Biden said:

“Talk to most responsible gun owners they’ll tell you there’s no possible justification for having 100 rounds in a magazine” and said that deer do not wear Kevlar vests. A very tired argument.

Then he said something really weird:

“Those who say the blood of Patriots, you know, and all the stuff about how we’re gonna have to move against the government. If you think you need to have weapons to take on the government, you need F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons.”

Hmm:

  • Seems like an overt threat.
  • Is he really saying he will nuke American citizens if they revolt against a tyrannical government?
  • Isn’t him saying he will suppress any revolt with nukes and F-15s a sign of tyranny.

Biden continues:

“We’re not changing the Constitution. We’re enforcing it.”

  • Not sure how taking guns away is enforcing the Constitution.
  • Biden touted “zero tolerance” for gun dealers who willfully violate the law, and claimed that 90% of illegal guns found at crime scenes were traced back to 5% of gun dealers.
  • The “zero-tolerance” policy targets federally licensed firearms dealers who “willfully” transfer a weapon to someone prohibited from owning one or ignore a tracing request from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).
  • The ATF would seek to revoke the dealer’s license after the first offense.

“If you willfully sell a gun to someone who’s prohibited from possessing it, if you willfully fail to run a background check, if you willfully falsify a record … my message to you is this: We’ll find you and we will seek your license to sell guns.”

Couple of question for you:

  • How many legal gun dealers are willing to risk their license by illegally?
  • What about going after the people who illegally get guns? Most crime is committed by felons where it is already illegal to own a weapon.
  • Why are crime rates going up mostly in blue cities where guns are already heavily regulated and almost impossible to get? Los Angeles, New York and Chicago have the highest gun crimes in the country and all three have incredibly overbearing gun laws.
  • What about Hunter Biden? Why isn’t he being prosecuted?

NRS spokeswoman Amy Hunter told Fox News:

“This is a political red herring aimed at hiding the real and abysmal failures of the Biden administration. Crime rates are high because of the efforts to defund the police and a failure to prosecute career criminals. The simple fact is strict enforcement of existing laws – including gun laws – coupled with support of law enforcement and prosecutors to do their jobs would result in a dramatic decrease in crime. But, the president would rather play politics than make Americans safer.”

This is absolutely correct. As usual, the Left is missing target. Handcuffing and defunding the police, making crime legal and releasing criminals has nothing to do with a spike in crime, according to the Left.

No one misses the target more than Alexandria Ocasio Cortez who calls the crime increases “hysteria”:

What context is she talking about? When I see that violent crime throughout the country is up 50%, there’s context to that?

Yeah. This is coming from someone who lives in a secure building and walks around with armed guards. Talk about tone dead. But she represents the Left’s beliefs.

So Much for a Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill

Joe Biden tried to pull a shell game move on the Republicans. Dumbass Republicans such as Mitt Romney were fooled.

  • Republican and Democratic Senators got together and came up with a bipartisan deal on infrastructure. The deal would cost over $1.2 trillion (I hate this).
  • Joe Biden then said that he would not sign the deal unless they passed his partisan bill that would cost trillions of dollars for climate change and crap like that.
  • The larger bill was suppose to be voted on first then the infrastructure bill.
  • Republicans than changed their minds and condemned the infrastructure bill because Biden said he would veto the infrastructure bill if his big bill was not passed.
  • The White House is now trying to do damage control to save the bills.

I don’t understand why there are Republicans that continue to think that Joe Biden is a moderate and running the country. They don’t need to vote for any of this crap that we don’t need to spend money on. The infrastructure in this country isn’t bad enough to spend $1.3 trillion of money we don’t have while we are trying to economically recover from the pandemic.

Let the Democrats do what they want and stop supporting them or trying to think there can be some sort of bipartisan crap. There is none and the Democrats don’t want it. Don’t vote for their bills. Let them waste all their shots at reconciliation. Let them take responsibility for their own mess. Don’t help them ruin the country.

 

She’s Not Helping At All

This weekend, Kamala Harris decided to go to the border. Sort of but not really.

  • She stopped at a Border Patrol facility in El Paso.
  • El Paso is a border city but not right on the border.
  • The facility she visited a facility that did not detain any illegal aliens.
  • In a press conference after her visit she:
    • Blamed the Trump administration for the mess. Not true.
    • Said they were making progress.
    • Insisted she had been to the border before, even yelling at a reporter about it.
  • She then got on a plane and headed to California.
  • When Jen Psaki was asked by reporters why she did not go to where the crisis was actually happening, she gave some gobblty-gook about how the Trump administration made this mess.

She did not want to go to the border because it would be a terrible photo op. The “kids in cages” thing that the media blew up on during the Trump administration is actually happening during the Biden administration.

The media is also getting impatient with the administration’s response and they are beginning to hammer them for it.

The 2022 elections couldn’t come fast enough.

Why Is She Representing Our Country?

NBC is going to take a bath on these Olympics in Tokyo this summer. The woke thing of some of these athletes is really a turn off. I have a feeling the United States Olympic Committee and the International Olympic Committee may have to take some steps to stem this tide of wokism and politicking by the athletes or they could lose a lot of money.

  • On Saturday, the last day of the US Olympic trials in track took place.
  • The ladies for the hammer throw were on the podium getting their medals.
  • Everyday, during the trials, the National Anthem is played at 5:30 PM.
  • The National Anthem began to play while the women were on the podium.
  • The first and second place women turned to the flag and put their hands on their heart.
  • The third place women, a broad named Gwen Berry, put her hand on her hip and turned away from the flag.
  • When the anthem finished, she held up a T-shirt that said “Activist Athlete”.
  • Later, she said she was “pissed off” because she was “blindsided” by the National Anthem being played while she was on the podium. This was a BS lie:
    • The anthem played every day at the same time no matter what was going on.
    • She had the T-shirt with her on the podium.
    • She was looking straight at the camera when she turned away.
  • Later, on Twitter, she asked for people to donate to her track club so she could train without needing to get a job.

This was clearly a planned publicity stunt. I think it backfired. She looked selfish, disrespectful and spoiled. She took a lot of crap over it.

But she double-downed on Twitter:

These people need to get kicked off the team. Anyone who hates the United States shouldn’t represent it during the Olympics.

I hate even talking about this story because it just gives her more publicity and, after all, who the hell really knows anything about the hammer throw.
