Here’s a newsflash: Joe Biden is corrupt and too stupid to hide it.
A 12-year old gets a big victory in Colorado and teaches the school district a history lesson.
And it’s really good to be a perverted dude these days.
Dumbass of the Day
MSNBC attacks DeSantis for calling the Jacksonville shooter a "scumbag." Seriously. Trymaine Lee: "it places the onus on one individual and the actions of one individual as opposed to a nationwide sickness of white supremacy in the country and the violence it fuels." pic.twitter.com/IZKMGqAgU9
MRS. DOOCY TIME: "@NikkiHaley says 'the idea we have biological boys playing in girls sports, it is the women's issue of our time.' Does [Biden] agree this is a women's rights issue?"
Joe Biden’s corruption, and stupidity, is becoming a real problem for Democrats.
According to the Daily Wire:
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is being sued to turn over approximately 5,400 emails connected to then-Vice President Joe Biden’s pseudonym accounts to forward government information and business with his son, Hunter Biden, and others.
Southeastern Legal Foundation (SLF) filed a federal lawsuit against the agency on Monday after NARA officials confirmed with other sources that Biden used three personal pseudonym email accounts under the names Robin Ware, Robert L. Peters, and JRB Ware but has since “dragged its feet and still has not produced a single email,” the law group said in a news release.
This guy is so stupid he can’t make up an E-mail address that can’t be traced to cover up his corruption.
A 12-year-old boy just won a major victory against his school after a video of him being removed from class for displaying a Gadsden flag patch on his backpack went viral this week.
Education expert and president of the Libertas Institute in Utah, Connor Boyack, released a screenshot of the Vanguard School Board of Directors allowing Jaiden to “attend school with the Gadsden flag patch visible on his backpack.”
“We won!” Boyack wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, Tuesday. “Let this be a lesson — document your encounters w/ government employees. Had Jaiden’s mom not recorded the video, this wouldn’t have got nearly the attention that it did.”
Here is the video:
Meet 12yo Jaiden who was kicked out of class yesterday in Colorado Springs for having a Gadsden flag patch, which the school claims has "origins with slavery."
The school's director said via email that the patch was "disruptive to the classroom environment."
The family released the statement by the Vanguard School Board of Directors overturning the schools decision.
What really should concern people is not this little boy and the fight they had to go through but the history all the kids are being taught at this school.
Everyone is a Dumbass Here
According to the Post Millennial:
Seven college students, sorority sisters at the University of Wyoming, brought suit against the national Kappa Kappa Gamma leadership over their policy of allowing a man into the sisterhood. That case has now been rejected by the US District Court for Wyoming, and the sisters in the sorority will be forced to allow the male entry to the women’s group.
The male in question, Artemis Langford, reportedly watched the college girls undress, sometimes sporting an erection while doing so. The sorority sisters didn’t like it, but the Kappa Kappa Gamma policy is that men who claim to be women are women enough to be part of the sisterhood.
Judge Alan Johnson dismissed the case, Westenbroek v Kappa Kappa Gamma Fraternity. The ruling from Johnson was that it was the right of the group to redefine the word “woman” to include men. “Kappa Kappa Gamma’s bedrock right as a private, voluntary organization — and one this Court may not invade,” the judge said, per Reduxx.
Johnson also declined to say what a woman is, a question that has plagued many in public life who do not want to be shamed for knowing that biological reality exists. “The University of Wyoming chapter voted to admit — and, more broadly, a sorority of hundreds of thousands approved — Langford,” Johnson said.
“With its inquiry beginning and ending there, the Court will not define ‘woman’ today.
“The delegate of a private, voluntary organization interpreted ‘woman’, otherwise undefined in the non-profit’s bylaws, expansively; this Judge may not invade Kappa Kappa Gamma’s freedom of expressive association and inject the circumscribed definition Plaintiffs urge.”
Everyone is an idiot in this story. Especially the women who do not just throw their membership cards to this sorority in the trash.
Who is at Fault Here?
According to Fox News:
A Waldorf, Maryland, teenager was fatally stabbed early Sunday morning after a dispute over a fast-food dipping sauce turned physical.
Now, a Washington, D.C., Superior Court magistrate judge has ordered the suspect accused of stabbing the 16-year-old be held at a secured juvenile facility until her next hearing Friday.
FOX 5 DC reported that the suspect, also 16 and from Waldorf, faces second-degree murder and multiple other charges in the fatal stabbing of Naima Liggon.
Before giving her decision, Judge Sherri Beatty-Arthur reportedly told the court that the incident was a “dispute over sauce.”
At about 2:10 a.m. Sunday, a group of young people stopped at the 24-hour McDonald’s by U Street and 14th Street Northwest in Washington after driving from Maryland to go to a party in D.C.
During the juvenile hearing Monday, it was revealed that an argument started inside the vehicle over the fast-food giant’s sweet and sour dipping sauce before turning physical. The teens, who were still near the eatery, got out of the vehicle and the fight continued.
One of the defense attorneys said the suspect stabbed Liggon in self-defense after getting jumped during the fight.
There is a saying that nothing good happens after midnight. Question: Why are these kids out at 2 AM? Where were there parents? Why aren’t their parents in jail?
Just Dumb
Here comes another cancel culture moment.
According to Fox News:
Martha Stewart’s Arctic getaway has landed her in some hot water.
Stewart posted a picture of herself on social media enjoying a cocktail aboard a luxury cruise traveling to Greenland from Iceland.
“We actually captured a small iceberg for our cocktails tonight,” Stewart wrote, in part, in her caption.
She also shared a photo of a huge piece of ice sitting on a black cart, presumably the ice she was referring to being used her drink.
The rest of the post featured photos of glaciers and beautiful scenery from her journey and concluded with a pic of the 82-year-old in cold-weather gear on the deck of the ship.
“Martha the ice caps are melting don’t put them in your drink,” wrote one commenter.
“I generally love Martha and the excesses of her life because she’s about beautiful gardens, homes, and food, but wealthy white people drinking their iceberg cocktails while the planet is in flames is a bit tone deaf,” shared another.
“Martha I love ya. But weren’t you just talking about climate change with your wash out on your driveway in NY? Melting icebergs for a cocktail surely won’t help. I’m not even going to talk about the boat you’re on and how that can’t be good for climate change either,” said a third.
“You should have left the ice right where it was. You have heard of global warming haven’t you?” questioned another.
Representatives for Stewart did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment on the post.
Martha Stewart is 82-years old and worth $400 million. If she doesn’t flip a double-barreled middle finger here I will never make the chicken soup she taught me again.
Crime, homelessness and illegal immigration are huge problems in the United States, especially in blue cities. The leadership in these cities support laws and policies that support all this stuff. Let’s see how they are doing.

Biden tells back-to-school students "the hardest thing is to come back after three months of not doing any work."
He is presumably speaking from personal experience since 40% of his presidency has been spent on vacation. pic.twitter.com/3rRVNIJ6oW
Joe Biden has spent 21 of the last 30 days on vacation. That includes a ten day vacation in Delaware, a seven day vacation in Lake Tahoe and two weekends in Delaware. In that time, the administration has done no press conferences. Needless to say, they were a little rusty.
One of the things old Joe missed was the second anniversary of the messed-up Afghanistan pullout. Here is Karin Jean Pierre asking about what Joe has to say about all the girls he abandoned that are under the predations of the Taliban:

San Francisco Mayor London Breed joined more than 200 protesters who gathered Wednesday outside a federal courthouse to call for an end to a federal restriction on the city’s ability to clear homeless encampments.
“It is not humane to let people live on our streets in tents, use drugs. We have found dead bodies, we have found a dead baby in these tents. We have seen people in really awful conditions, and we are not standing for it anymore,” Breed said at the rally.
Here she is, expressing her “outrage”:

The protesters demanded an end to a federal judge’s order banning San Francisco from cleaning up homeless tent encampments unless the city has enough shelter beds for every homeless person.
Inside the courthouse, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments from the city’s attorneys asking the court to throw out the temporary injunction against cleaning encampments.
A shooting at Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago during a White Socks game on Friday night left two women injured, and blood in the stands. Police are investigating, and it’s not clear yet if the gunshots came from in the stands or outside the stadium.
Two people were confirmed to be injured. A 42-year-old woman with a gun shot to her leg and a 26-year-old woman with a graze wound to her abdomen, per a statement from the Chicago Police Department.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is facing backlash after filing suit against Kia and Hyundai over claims they manufactured cars that lacked appropriate anti-theft measures, ultimately leading to a surge in car crimes.
Democratic Alderman Raymond Lopez mocked Johnson over the lawsuit on “Fox & Friends,” calling the move a “play from a socialist playbook” as crime continues to ravage streets in the Windy City.
“Clearly, we don’t have a crime problem. We have a Kia problem in the city of Chicago, according to Mayor Johnson,” Lopez told Steve Doocy on Monday. “The numbers speak for themselves. 104 percent increase from last year, a 234 percent increase in vehicle thefts from two years ago, but yet it’s the car’s fault.”
“It’s the fact that they are so easily taken by criminals who run rampant in the city of Chicago, but we have yet to hear our mayor say anything, one word, about the criminals running rampant in our streets,” he continued. “And all he does in turn is lambast the media, lambast those who try to hold criminals accountable by playing word games.
A little over two months ago, the Los Angeles City Council voted to officially become a “Sanctuary City” in the “Sanctuary State” of California. Now, L.A. Mayor Karen Bass (D) is saying that illegal aliens aren’t invited to the City of Angeles — in stark contrast to her prior statements.
Bass’ newfound opposition comes after Texas Governor Greg Abbott has spent months busing illegal immigrants to L.A.
“L.A. has not extended an invitation asking for people to come,” Bass told Fox L.A. anchor Marla Tellez. “This is a political act.”
I wonder what could have changed Los Angeles’ mind? The article continues:
LA Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez even said point blank that Abbott’s actions were the motivating factor behind fighting for sanctuary status and one that welcomes all people.
“These dangerous actions from far-right, weak-minded politicians who rely on stunts instead of actual leadership are exactly why we’re fighting to make L.A. a sanctuary city,” Hernandez said. “L.A. was built by immigrants and it thrives because of immigrants. We will continue to be a place that values and dignifies all human life, no matter who they are or where they come from.”
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass claimed on Friday’s episode of “The Issue Is” on Fox 11 Los Angeles that the massive increase in retail theft in the city is because “things like this happen when there are profits to be made,” and the “reforms that people object to have nothing to do with these crimes.”
During the interview, Bass discussed a law enforcement task force that she is supporting that encompasses different agencies to combat retail theft. She noted, “Just the other day, they made eleven arrests.”
“These are crimes that are significant. They are felonies. They are not misdemeanors,” she continued. “One of the things that we need to look at though, rest assured, they are not selling $10,000 purses in poor communities. They’re selling those purses online. They’re selling those stolen goods online.”
“I believe, when you have a crime like that, all of the actors are culpable and need to be dealt with. And so, we need to look at the online sales of stolen property, because that’s what it is,” Bass added.
When host Elex Michaelson asked what she says to people who believe there is now more crime due to a lack of consequences for committing them in Los Angeles, Bass responded, “Well, they especially focus on that with these retail crime[s] … I think there [are] a lot of misunderstandings about that. These are felonies, and in some cases…these are crimes that do have major consequences.”
“The reforms that people object to have nothing, nothing to do with these crimes,” she concluded.
Rock legend Alice Cooper lost a brand partnership with a cosmetics company after he slammed the transgender movement in an interview late this week.
Cooper had just signed a brand deal with Vampyre Cosmetics only a couple of weeks ago, but it has since been canceled after the rocker spoke out against “gender affirming care” for minors, according to the New York Post.
In an interview with Stereogum, Cooper was asked about other rock giants who have come out against transgenderism.
“I’m understanding that there are cases of transgender, but I’m afraid that it’s also a fad, and I’m afraid there’s a lot of people claiming to be this just because they want to be that,” he said. “I find it wrong when you’ve got a six-year-old kid who has no idea. He just wants to play, and you’re confusing him telling him, ‘Yeah, you’re a boy, but you could be a girl if you want to be.’”
“I think that’s so confusing to a kid. It’s even confusing to a teenager,” he continued. “You’re still trying to find your identity, and yet here’s this thing going on, saying, ‘Yeah, but you can be anything you want. You can be a cat if you want to be.’ I mean, if you identify as a tree. … And I’m going, ‘Come on! What are we in, a Kurt Vonnegut novel?’ It’s so absurd, that it’s gone now to the point of absurdity.”
Following Cooper’s remarks, Vampyre Cosmetics released a statement on Instagram: “In light of recent statements by Alice Cooper[,] we will no longer be doing a makeup collaboration. We stand with all members of the LGBTQIA+ community and believe everyone should have access to healthcare.”
Alice Cooper is worth $50 million. Vampyre Cosmetics has a revenue stream of less than $5 million. What they are paying Cooper is pocket change for him. With that being said, let me go a different direction with this cancel culture moment.
A white supremacist goes on a rampage in Jacksonville, Florida. The black sheriff of Jacksonville puts water on all the media narratives.
And here we go again. We are going to have to determine if we are going to live under the thumb of COVID policy.
Rest In Peace
Bob Barker, made famous by being on The Price is Right and his cameo role on Happy Gilmore has died at the age of 99.
He was on the famous game show for 35 years and retired at the age of 87. He won 19 Emmy awards and is in the Television Hall of Fame.
At the age of 15, while still in high school, Barker met and fell in love with Dorothy Jo Gideon, who would become his wife. On November 17, 1939, he took her on their first date, which was an Ella Fitzgerald concert. In fact, according to Barker, they “were never separated from then on”—until her death from lung cancer in 1981.
He was known to be a pro-animal guy and was a vegan and refused to wear leather or animals skins of any kind on the show. That was also one of the reasons he let his hair go white naturally.
Another tragedy happened in Florida this weekend and it didn’t take the Left much time to exploit it.
According to CNN:
The gunman who killed three people Saturday at a Dollar General store in Jacksonville, Florida, in what authorities said was a racist attack against Black people had earlier been turned away from the campus of a nearby historically Black university.
The shooter, described by police as a White man in his early 20s, first went to the campus of Edward Waters University, where he refused to identify himself to an on-campus security officer and was asked to leave, the university stated in a news release.
“The individual returned to their car and left campus without incident. The encounter was reported to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office by EWU security,” the school said.
The suspect put on a bulletproof vest and mask while still on campus, and then went to the nearby Dollar General, Jacksonville Sheriff T.K. Waters told CNN’s Jim Acosta. Armed with an AR-15 style rifle and a handgun, the gunman opened fire outside the store and then again inside, fatally shooting the three victims before killing himself, according to Waters.
The three victims killed, two males and one female, were all Black, the sheriff said.
Of course, before we know much about the shooter, the media points out and beats on the fact that the shooter was white and all the victims were black and the only reason the attack took place was racism.
Here is Tracie Davis, state senator of Florida, doing just that.
Got it? It is racism and Ron DeSantis are to blame. I wonder if MSNBC reported on a black man shot five white people just because he wanted to kill white people in June in Alabama? By the way, there was another one like that in Oklahoma where four were killed for the same reason. None of this stuff is reported.
But they weren’t done. Here is another question and the black sheriff of Jacksonville shuts it completely down.
By the way, he’s absolutely correct. Hey, there’s racism in the country. No one is arguing that. There are crappy people in the world. Most aren’t. There’s no acknowledgement of that in the media. Fortunately, they are the minority.
Well the Jacksonville sheriff, TK Waters, who is black, had a press conference and he had some things. Here he is talking about the shooter.
The shooter had no friends, no job and was living with his parents. Oh yeah. He also wrote a manifesto and was overweight. He was a mess.
The press, seeing that the sheriff was not going to bite on the “American is racist” thing. The media decides to go after the guns. He blows that out of the water and points out the system failed because there was no way to know he’d do this.
The media keeps pushing the gun thing. Here is the sheriff, putting a end to the gun control thing with reason and logic:
Absolutely correct and he has hit on the problem with this country, specifically from the media. They refuse to acknowledge the individual and then dump a blanket statement on the shooter. If the shooter is black it is guns and wealth inequities. If the shooter is white, it’s racism. No other reasons.
Here’s the real problem, there are other reasons. There is a reason why there are more mass shooting and murders in general. We need to tackle that.
People are catching the flu. That’s because flu season is approaching. One of the flu variants that is going around is the 30th variant of the China virus. There is a push for masks and social distancing and staying at home and getting vaccinated again. We talked about that last week.
Of course, nothings actually worked, including the vaccine. So Joe Biden, who defeated the big pharma companies, has decided to give them more money again.
According to the Post Millennial:
On Friday, President Joe Biden revealed that he signed off on a new proposal to Congress for additional funds to develop a new COVID-19vaccine “that is needed, that’s necessary, that works” and will “likely be recommended that everybody get it.”
During a press conference, the President asked if he could speak on an uptick in COVID-19 cases and he responded, “As a matter of fact I signed off this morning on a proposal to present to the Congress a request for additional funding for a new vaccine that is needed, that’s necessary, that works.”
Here is old Joe Biden, being asked the COVID question while he is on vacation…again:
Biden on his BRAND NEW Covid vaccine:
"…it will likely be recommended that everybody get it."
He says the quiet part out loud. The last vaccines didn’t work. That does open up some questions. Joe Biden has taken, like, 12 shots for nothing, apparently.
The answer here is no. We’re done. No masks, no more staying at home, no more shots.
Here is another example of the government using the Department of Justice to go after the government’s enemies.
According to the BBC:
The DoJ says SpaceX falsely claimed that it was not allowed to hire non-US citizens.
The investigation into SpaceX by the DoJ was prompted after allegations of discrimination from a foreign worker.
The BBC has contacted SpaceX for comment.
The DoJ alleged that SpaceX “routinely discouraged asylees and refugees from applying and refused to hire or consider them, because of their citizenship status” from September 2018 to May 2022.
An asylee is a person who has been granted asylum. They are authorised to work in the US, may apply for a social security card, may request permission to travel overseas, and can apply to bring family members to the country.
Elon Musk’s company said it was only allowed to hire citizens and green card holders because of “export control laws,” the DOJ said.
However, the DoJ also said that this was not correct and that these laws do not mandate such restrictions.
Just wow. Essentially, the DoJ is saying that Space X is breaking the law by following the immigration laws. This lawsuit isn’t going anywhere.
Donald Trump is arrested…again. This time we get a pretty picture. The T-shirts should be out by Monday.
Let’s take a look at the debate on Wednesday. I saw so you have to hear about it.
And someone should hang over the incompetence during the Hawaiian fire.
Someone Needs to Hang for This!
According to the Daily Wire:
Survivors of the Maui fire that swept through the town of Lahaina said the only paved road out was barricaded by authorities as flames overcame the town, according to a report from the Associated Press.
Maui Police Chief John Pelletier said during a news conference that residents were not prevented from fleeing Lahaina, but accounts from some of the survivors suggest they were hindered from making a quick escape because of the decision to close the Honoapiilani Highway and a bypass at the south end of town.
Witnesses who survived the blaze said that traffic quickly backed up as residents attempted to flee to the south, but the road was blocked as a crew worked on downed power lines. One family ignored the barricade and swerved past the cones placed in the road, making it safely to another town nearly an hour later.
Donald Trump went to Fulton County jail to be processed for his RICO charges. He released the mug shot which everyone was looking forward to see.
The picture itself was not flattering. He put on his determined angry face. This is exactly the image he wants to portray. It’s a great picture.
He made a statement after he finished being processed right outside the jail:
He also released a campaign fundraising statement:
“The American people know what’s going on. What has taken place is a travesty of justice and ELECTION INTERFERENCE.
“If you are doing poorly due to the sinister people in control of our country right now, don’t even think about donating! But if you can, please make a contribution to evict Crooked Joe Biden from the White House and SAVE AMERICA during this dark chapter in our nation’s history.”
This is backfiring for the Left. He is handling this perfectly and he is going to ride this all the way through the primaries.
The Debate
I had to watch that miserable debate, so you have to hear about it. It was terrible. First, let’s talk about the entire production and then get to the candidates.
Fox News
Fox News is touting this as a huge victory. It wasn’t. They did a terrible job. I like Bret Baher and Martha MaCallum but they stunk it up.
Here’s what I saw:
There were too many candidates. There should have been two maybe three candidates.
The format sucked. The candidates had 30 seconds to answer a question. What the hell are you going to learn from that?
The moderators were in it too much. They should throw out a topic and let everyone go.
The moderators couldn’t/wouldn’t control the candidates. I couldn’t understand a damn thing anyone said because they were all yelling at each other.
Way too many poll question. “Raise your hand if…”
There was actual time spent on climate change? They didn’t talk about CRT, gender ideology, or or the banning of utilities like gas powered stoves. They barely talked about the economy or the weaponization of the DOJ.
Donald Trump needed to be there.
It was terrible and not like it used to be and it was worthless.
Ron DeSantis
He won the debate.
He was assertive but not overly agressive.
He pointed out he did a lot in Florida and he would do it federally. This is his main point.
All the policy points he has already done in Florida.
He didn’t fight with anyone.
No one really attacked him.
According to the Washington Post and Five-Thirty-Eight, he won the debate.
Vivek Ramaswamy
I think he came in third by a long shot. Not because he was good but because he was loud and the others were terrible.
He was obnoxious.
He made defamatory statements against the other candidates.
He flip-flops.
He does have a lot of energy.
He showed he is inexperienced.
He used a lot of Barrack Obama imagery which is weird.
Nikki Haley
She came in second in the debate.
She had the best swipes against Ramaswamy.
She was the most moderate and reasonable on controversial topics like abortion and Ukraine.
She knows foreign policy.
She did screech a lot which made it hard to watch.
She brought up the I-am-woman-hear-me-roar crap that is annoying.
She did well.
Mike Pence
The only question I have is why Mike Pence is doing this other than because his political career is over and to protect his legacy.
He did show he was the most experienced.
He spent a lot of his time defending the Trump administration.
He looked really out of water when he tried to be the mean guy and burn other candidates.
He really overdid the religion thing. He is kowtowing to the evangelical vote.
He’s going nowhere.
The Other Candidates
Who cares. They should all drop out.
Donald Trump
A lot of people said Donald Trump won the debate because he didn’t go and did an interview with Tucker Carlson. That interview was crap.
By not participating, he looked scared to defend his presidency. Not a good look.
The letter that Barrack Obama wrote to his girlfriend and was redacted has been transcribed and confirmed…I guess.
Here’s what it said:
“In regard to homosexuality, I must say that I believe this is an attempt to remove oneself from the present, a refusal perhaps to perpetuate the endless farce of earthly life. You see, I make love to men daily, but in the imagination.
“My mind is androgynous to a great extent and I hope to make it more so until I can think in terms of people, not women as opposed to men. But, in returning to the body, I see that I have been made a man, and physically in life, I choose to accept that contingency.”
There is an article called Men’s Groups Are Embracing and Alternative Conception of Masculinity by a gal named Tara Bahrampour. To say the least, it’s an interesting article. Let’s go through it.
On a Thursday in spring, as the sun set over D.C.’s Palisades neighborhood, nine men layacross awooden deck under the darkening sky. Birds trilled, their song drowned periodically by planes roaring toward Reagan National Airport. A stick of incense smoldered, its smoke curling into the mild air.
“Take in the sounds,” said Rua Williamson, who was leading the men in a breathwork session. “I invite you to maybe bring up an intention. How you want to live in this world. How you want to love in this world. How you want to be in this world.”
The men ranged from young adulthood to middle age; they were White, Black, Hispanic, Middle Eastern. As Williamson directed them to take short breaths, their bellies contracted in unison. Someone cranked up a Bluetooth device, and electronic drumming and bass rose up. Williamson laid his hand on the tummy of Alex Mero, a 52-year-old accountant in a light-purple T-shirt and black eyeglasses. He wrapped his hands around the waist of 30-year-old Dru Haynesworth, an activist and community health worker from Southeast Washington wearing a T-shirt that said “VOTE.”
He brought the men together with a collective ommmm. “Feel the vibration resonate in the floor,” Williamson said. “Feel the connection to your brothers.”
It was a kind of connection that U.S. men increasingly say is missing from their lives, leaving them lonely, disconnected and, often, angry. Earlier this year, Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy declared the country to be in an “epidemic of loneliness and isolation.” National suicide rates have risen in recent decades, and men in 2021 died by suicide at a rate nearly four times higher than women, according to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
Here’s a problem, none of the above has anything to do with masculinity. It is attended by a bunch of guys who reject their masculinity.
The best time I have is during our football draft. A bunch of men get together and bullshit. We don’t express our feelings and hug while wearing purple tank tops. Because men don’t do that. We never have.
Men have always been the same way in the past and we weren’t killing ourselves. We are now. Why? Maybe that’s what should be looked at.
American men’s isolation stems in large part from a pervasive cultural belief, experts say: that men should be self-reliant and hide their emotions, especially from other men.
Again, we’ve always done that and weren’t killing ourselves. Why are we doing it now? Could it be because the tenants of masculinity have been demonized and the culture to change us to be more like women?
By the way, do you know who loves self-reliance and hiding our emotions under stress? Women. Women want a masculine man they can depend on for support and feel protected. Even the most ferocious feminists believe this.
Such conceptions, though, leave no room for vulnerability, said Mark Greene, founder of Remaking Manhood, a consultancy that works with organizations to help improve men’s professional relationships.
I’m going to give you a little hint about something, this article does not talk about any attack on masculinity. What the writer is doing is saying that certain men are trying to define what old school masculinity is. She doesn’t mention why these men feel the need to do this.
“If a boy expresses too much emotion or too much need for connection, is too giddy, is too joyful, what we say to that boy is, ‘What are you, a sissy? What are you, a girl? What are you, gay?’” Greene said. “It’s your job to dominate those around you, or you will lose status, and that will increase the number of individuals above you who can dish out dominance to you. And what we find is that in that system, in that structure, men are constantly in competition with each other and constantly driven by this sense of anxiety.”
This is a tad exaggerated but it is right. This does happen. It’s socialization. It’s how boys learn to be men. It still happens today except we demonize it and call it bullying. I was a sissy when I was growing up. A couple of unprovoked fights later, a couple I won, from those bullies the Left demonizes and I became the man I am today. A man that is unafraid to protect my family though I have no desire to get into a fight.
Here’s the thing, the “boys will be boys” thing is true. Boys are nothing but a pool of raw, unfiltered masculinity. That’s why boys do what they do, and will continue doing so. Those bullies teach kids how to defend themselves and, in the future, teach them how to defend the ones they love. Bullying is good.
Masculinity is also civilized by the parents, particularly, by the father, who is presumably, masculine. This is part of the problem boys have. Most families don’t have a father and our boys are not being civilized.
They are taught to be less masculine. It’s unnatural for boys to be feminine. Is it any wonder why our boys are committing crimes, including mass murders, are on drugs and are killing themselves?
Niobe Way, a professor of developmental psychology at New York University and the author of “Deep Secrets: Boys’ Friendships and the Crisis of Connection,” said many boys are raised with what she called “the cowboy mentality — ‘I can do it myself, I don’t need others,’” often perpetuated by “the father wanting the son to man up and not be so soft. … The whole model of getting help is part of so-called femininity.”
As a result, she said, “Women end up being the therapist for their husband, and more are getting sick of it.”
Niobe Way is a woman. She’s an expert in masculinity??What the hell does she know about masculinity?!
She says women are tired of being therapists for men. Wait, didn’t the article say earlier that men shouldn’t show vulnerability and hide their emotions?? That’s right. Women want masculine men. They want men who can handle themselves. They want men who can deal with their problems without whining to them.
But some men are looking for alternatives, and some are finding them in fellowship organizations with names like EvryMan, the ManKind Project and the Journeymen, the group doing breathwork that night in D.C.
“We have all these groups that are just spontaneously coming into being, as men say, ‘I want a circle of men that I can call my brothers, I want a circle of men that I can express what’s going on for me emotionally, and I want a circle of men who will hold me accountable in positive ways,’” Greene said.
The theme of the Journeymen’s gathering in April, their first in-person meeting in D.C. since the pandemic, was “heartbreak and grief.” As the sky turned cobalt, Williamson implored the men to sense their emotions and “let them flow freely,” to raise their voices and “release them into the darkness.”
Yeah, this is going to turn a woman on. If I told Josie I was going to one of these things, do you know what she’d tell me? Grow up and be a man.
That’s what I’d say. Grow a pair and deal with your issues.
The men yelled, growled and bayed until neighborhood dogs started barking; voices rose to a frenzied pitch, then subsided. Williamson embraced a man who was sobbing. One man hugged himself. Then it was time to sit in a circle and open up. Joshua Cogan, the group’s founder, spoke first.
“People here have gone through a lot in our lives, some in the last few months. As we move through the world as men, sometimes it can be hard to have a sense of that,” he said. “All that which has been unnamed and unfelt, it’s actually been felt, it just hasn’t been dealt with. We put up a stiff arm and won’t let the other guy into our lane of traffic, we don’t want to make eye contact because if we did, we’d have to let him into our lane and show up really differently in the world.”
As a man, he said, “you can sense that there are deeper things that are happening in men’s lives, but when you bring it up the subject is changed. If guys’ lives are a house, they only let you see the living room with the plastic on the furniture. And you’re like, ‘Hey, I’m hearing some baying in the basement.’ But we don’t talk about that.”
Rua Williamson looks like a little girl. He is exactly what a man shouldn’t be.
But a serious question. Do you think a woman would be attracted to men who act like this? I’m going to go out on a limb and say no.
Going around the circle, they began to talk about what lurked in the basement. One had lost his sister a few months earlier. Many talked of fraught or violent relationships with their fathers — or of not having a father around.
“My mom was a single working mom in D.C.,” said Adrian Heizmann-Checa, 45, of Cathedral Heights. “I was scared she was going to get killed. I’m 7, 8, 9 years old, crying, ‘Where the hell is my dad, where the hell is my mom,’ in a basement in Adams Morgan. … So I just [had] to become a self-reliant superhero.”
What a shock. No father. He needs to teach masculinity for himself or learn it from his mother who is not a man!
The article spends the next ten paragraphs on men whining about something. Then it comes to something interesting.
Cogan, now 47, had been working through his own personal difficulties: the end of a previous relationship; his at-times fraught relationship with his father; the bullying he had suffered as a child. Now, he said, he was often the only man his male friends were talking to. “My intuition is that I was modeling openness,” he said. “They saw me talk about my relationship, crying, going to therapy. They saw me as a safe harbor.”
This is not a man. I knew this when I saw him use the word “intuition”.
For many men, he said, “The world isn’t safe. There’s no expectation that a guy in our culture can say, ‘I’m scared, I’ve got fear.’ There’s no expectation that a guy can ask for safety in our culture. A lot of the guys I know, they can’t even do this with their partner.”
Do you know when a boy learns that the world isn’t safe? When they are a boy and get beaten up for the first time by a bully. In sports, when you screw up and don’t make an effort and get shit on be your friends. By one’s father when his wrestles with you in the yard, teaching you how to defend yourself.
I’m not surprise this guy is single. No woman could handle him and his baggage.
But in recent years, Way said, men have witnessed societal movements such as the #MeToo movement and Black Lives Matter, which also challenged old paradigms. “Then covid happens, and we hit the bottom of the barrel on connections,” she noted. “We can’t walk out of our homes. We woke up to see we are a mess, and we’re not having the connections we want, and we’re not actually happy.”
#MeToo, BLM and the other paradigms this gal is talking about have gone out of their way to demonize men and masculinity. That’s what Leftist men have learned. All other men are pushing back against this, including younger men who don’t like this stuff.
A teenager says her supervisor at Chick-fil-A sent her home for having an “unnatural” hair color: Blond.
“I was very embarrassed,” Autumn Williams, 16, of Concord, North Carolina, tells TODAY.com.
According to Williams and her mother Nina Burch, the teen wears her “brownish-blond” or “dark blond” hair in box braids, which Autumn had when she attended her company’s orientation session approximately two months ago. During that session, she says, the only guidance she heard about hair was that it had to be pulled back from her face, which she said is reasonable.
During her July 13 shift at the front counter, Williams said a manager asked to speak with her in private.
“She said, ‘Our supervisor drove by yesterday and noticed blond in your hair and since blond is an unnatural color to you, we have to ask you to take the blond out of your hair and then come back when there’s none,’” says Williams.
“She said, ‘We understand that’s a long process for you so take your time and you can email me when you’re ready to come back,’” adds Williams.
The teen says she panicked.
“It was very stressful — it made me feel like there was something wrong with me and my appearance.”
COVID, COVID, COVID. These people just will not let it go.
The Biden administration has decided to bypass the Supreme Court ruling on student load handouts. So much for the rule of law.
And that damned Constitution keeps allowing Christians to practice their faith.
They Don’t Care About the Rule of Law
According to Fox News:
President Biden’s administration is officially rolling out its SAVE plan on Tuesday, its latest attempt to grant student debt relief after Biden’s more wide-reaching plan failed before the Supreme Court.
Biden announced the plan alongside Education Secretary Miguel Cardona and other members of his administration on Tuesday. Under the SAVE plan, borrowers making roughly $15 an hour will not have to make any payments, while others earning above that amount will save at least $1,000 a year in comparison to other income-driven repayment plans.
“As long as you pay what you owe under this plan, you’ll no longer see your loan balance grow because of unpaid interest. Under the SAVE Plan, monthly payments are based on your income, not your student loan balance,” Biden said in remarks recorded on video and released by the White House.
“The SAVE plan is another huge step forward in President Biden’s tireless efforts to fix the broken student loan system, reduce the burden of student debt on working families, and put borrowers first,” Cardona said in a statement.
Later in the article:
The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates the new repayment options will cost at least $276 billion.
A federal district court ruled Monday in favor of a Michigan fruit farmer who was ousted from a local farmer’s market after he said he wouldn’t host same-sex weddings at his farm. The decision may signal the end of what has been a six-year legal battle.
Steve Tennes, owner of Country Mill Farms, sued East Lansing in 2017 after officials chose to exclude him from the city’s farmers market. Tennes, a devout Catholic, apparently was targeted by city officials after saying on Facebook that he follows the Catholic Church’s teachings about marriage, including when he participates in weddings at his family’s farm.
On Monday, a U.S. District Court judge for the Western District of Michigan ruled that Tennes and his family were improperly “forced to choose between following their religious beliefs and a government benefit for which they were otherwise qualified.”
The court said the city of East Lansing violated the Tennes’ free exercise rights protected in the U.S. Constitution’s First Amendment. “The reason is simple: denying a person an equal share of the rights, benefits, and privileges enjoyed by other citizens because of her faith discourages religious activity,” the ruling states.
A Maine hospital executive involved in diversity, equity and inclusion hosted an antiracist prayer service that had a group of White people apologize for their internalized racism as White people, according to a video reviewed by Fox News Digital.
Ryan Polly is a vice president of DEI at MaineHealth, a hospital system of over 20,000 employees. He has said the hospitals cater to overwhelmingly White patients, which is reflected by local demographics.
Polly refers to himself as a “minister” of a group called One Spirit. According to a video reviewed by Fox News Digital, which has since been scrubbed, Polly is shown teaching attendees how to be practitioners of antiracism through a prayer that he dedicated to “loving spirits who are known by many names.”
The DEI leader’s ideology is steeped in critical race theory. He said during the prayer services that he himself maintains “racist narratives and biases,” and attributed those to his skin color.
“Only then can we become equipped to… challenge the systems that have been designed to give us the advantage and oppress everyone else,” he said about becoming an antiracist practitioner.
“As the head of diversity, equity and inclusion at a major health system, I think frequently about my role as White person first and as a diversity leader second. I think about the responsibility I have to continue the deep internal work of… understanding my own racist narrative and biases,” Polly said. “I think about the privilege my Whiteness affords me and the choices Whiteness allows me to have… My Whiteness keeps me and my family safe.”
MaineHealth defended Polly, stating, “Our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion stems from our organizational values, mission and vision. This work strengthens our connections with patients and ultimately helps us to deliver higher-quality care. Consistent with our value of Respect and our role as an institution of learning, we welcome and encourage divergent viewpoints and dialogue among our patients and care team.”
However, Polly’s views on DEI contain outright stereotyping of people on the basis of being White, claiming that they are conditioned to be racist and oppressive.
For example, Polly said that White people acquire “ignorance,” “biases” and “racist thoughts” on the basis of their belonging to a “life of Whiteness.”
“This evening has been designed with White people in mind not to take the stage. We have plenty of places to take the stage,” he said, starting off the prayer. “We [need] to… begin the work to join the fight… We need to ensure we… do the work to challenge our ignorance, our biases and the racist thoughts that we’ve acquired through the life of Whiteness.”
In a portion of the prayer focused on “dismantling the system,” Polly encouraged the White people attending to feel uncomfortable with the messages.
“Let us develop the courage to dive [into] deeply experienced discomfort. Let’s sit with it… knowing that the answers come not from our own conscious thinking because that thinking is shaped by racist constructs. The answers lie deeper,” he said. “Let us leave with the tenacity to become anti-racist and continue the fight, even on the days when we could simply choose not to. Amen.”
Good news! Not everyone thinks this is a good idea and a bunch of executives and stayy think this Polly guy is unhinged.
Surgeons have performed the UK’s first womb transplant, signaling a new future for childbirth.
A 34-year-old woman received a womb from her 40-year-old sister, who has two children of her own.
The recipient was “incredibly happy” and “over the moon” following the nine-hour operation, Isabel Quiroga, a consultant surgeon at the Oxford Transplant Centre, told The Guardian.
The woman, who is married, plans to try to have two children with IVF using the five embryos she had frozen.
She was born with a rare condition that left her womb underdeveloped.
She’ll love, honor, and obey — as long as you’re willing to pay.
For a cool $30,000, a bosomy brunette is assuming the position of “surrogate wife,” selling herself out to married men seeking virtual companionship from a woman who’ll gladly fulfill their most primitive pleasures like “no other woman” willingly would.
“I do tasks that average wives often prefer to avoid — like watching a football match on television without complaining,” bragged bombshell Babi Palomas, 24, from São Paulo, Brazil.
As a surrogate wife, who only offers her saucy services digitally, Palomas, a “digital creator” with more than 111,000 Instagram followers, happily caters to the emotional needs of her woefully wedded patrons when they purchase either her 12-hour or 24-hour packages.
“With one client, I made dinner while [I] accompanied [him] on a call, and we watched movies together,” the social media siren told Jam Press, adding that she never goes to customers’ homes. “We then watched a football match, among other little things.”
Palomas, who also has — of course — an OnlyFans account, said her remote presence means the world to her otherwise hapless habitués.
“[These men] open up to me and tell me about their lives,” the video vixen revealed.
“In these conversations, I realized that many of the men who are married and have families feel lonely,” she continued, noting that the gloomy grooms most appreciate her independence and ability to get down and dirty with messy tasks like changing a tire.
Joe Biden finally decided to go to Hawaii to view the destruction. The people of Hawaii appear not to have wanted him to go. Hearing what he said and how he acted, he probably shouldn’t have gone.
There is no way this guy is running for president again.
Dumbass of the Day
Here is a Gen Zer at a political rally somewhere in Eastern Europe. Can you guess what she’s talking about? Yep, climate change. Here she is, addressing the media in a calm way, using reason and logic to make her argument:
Maui County Mayor Bissen: "I wanted to say how responsive the President has been. He called yesterday. I asked for the help that we needed."
"And within two hours one of his cabinet members called me back to answer my question. So, we've been getting all the help that we need." pic.twitter.com/v8waWEO0qJ

Biden says "Jill and I have a little sense of what it's like to lose a home" and then tells the story of when lightning struck his house in 2004 and says "I almost lost my '67 corvette and my cat."
According to a report from the time, the lighting strike caused "a small fire… pic.twitter.com/V8IBfoZuEW
Finally, we have Jay Insley, the governor of Washington:
Notice everyone who screwed up in Hawaii is a democrat and the federal government is filled with democrats and they all will blame climate change even though it is their own incompetence that created this mess.
Well, bad news, it’s not climate change. You know who says so? The leftist news source That Washington Post. In an article released today, they said:
As scientists weigh the influence climate change may have had in fueling Hawaii’s wildfires, there isn’t one standout factor they point to. Rising temperatures likely contributed to the severity of the blaze in several ways. But global warming could not have driven the fires by itself.
The first part of the article, of course blames climate change. They point out:
Hawaii is 2 degree warmer than 1950, but where were the fires 10 years ago?
They point out that winds were only about 5 MPH faster than usual.
They mention the role of non-climate influences in the intensity of the firestorm, such as the introduction of highly combustible nonnative plants, as well as weather patterns that happen naturally.
Hurricanes are the norm this time of year.
Drought conditions fluctuate with the weather and happen.
There is no direct evidence that climate change had any direct fault for causing this mess.
Of course, climate change didn’t cause this mess. Incompetence caused this mess. But we are being shoveled this climate change nonsense to deflect from that incompetence.
Legendary rock band Queen’s 1978 classic “Fat Bottomed Girls” has become cancel culture’s latest victim after the song was dropped from the band’s new greatest hits collection for younger listeners that debuted on the audio platform Yoto.
Though moving songs to the platform aims to introduce Queen to kids, some are critical of the decision to omit the song from the track list, blasting the move as “woke” or “ridiculous.”
“‘It is the talk of the music industry, nobody can work out why such a good-natured, fun song can’t be acceptable in today’s society,” one music industry professional – whose name was withheld – told U.K. outlet The Daily Mail.
What song today is not inappropriate? Cardi B? Bad Bunny?
Josh Green is in trouble. He is the governor of Hawaii and everything that he is in charge of failed. The emergency system failed. The electrical company failed to shut down the electricity when the winds picked up. The water lines that are used by the fire department didn’t have any water. The overall state response to the fire was a fail.
Now, Green admits that there are over 1000 people are still missing and may never be found because of the intensity of the fire. That goes along with the 111 that are known dead so far. But he came up with a pretty good reason why he and his minions failed:
Things have been really rough for Joe Biden over the summer. His son is getting investigated, He took a week vacation at Camp David, the economy is falling apart, he took a beach vacation for 10 days in Delaware and Ukraine appears to be losing their war after sending $115 billion.
Of course, there is that annoyance of 111 being killed and a 1000 are missing in Maui because of a fire that seems to be more from incompetence than climate change.
So, what does he do to unwind? How about take a vacation to Lake Tahoe, Nevada for a week at Tom Steyers $18 million mansion? Needless to say I got crap because I pointed out that Clarence Thomas is being criticized because a rich friend lent him his boat for a weekend. Some guy pointed out that Joe Biden paid for his stay. I pointed out that he didn’t pay for shit, our taxes did like they paid for his $500 K security system and fence at his Delaware home. Nothing but crickets for a response.
I also pointed out that Donald Trump got crap for playing gold in Florida one weekend a month but not one seems interested that Joe Biden has spent 40% of his presidency on vacation, away from the White House. More crickets.
Biden has been getting a lot of crap for going on vacation with the disaster in Maui. The pundits have been pointing out that he has never visited East Palestine, Ohio after the train wreck and everyone was misplaced. Everyone pointed out that he sent $115 billion to Ukraine but only offered $700 per person in Maui. That’s a total of $1.9 million from the government. There is $6 billion in damage. Pictures of him on the beach in Delaware are being juxtaposed with the devastation on the beaches of Maui. None of this looks good.
The other annoyance for Biden is the response from the federal government. FEMA is just now responding, a week and a half after the fire. The Army’s Corp of Engineers have not been deployed. No money has been sent. Biden and none of his administration has said anything except Biden saying “no comment”.
People are seeing this and they are talking:
MAUI FIRE
Lahaina local questions why President Joe Biden is sending funds to Ukraine while her town has been destroyed and is in crisis. @JoeBiden
Joe Biden decided to head to Hawaii. According to MSN:
He has finally decided to cut his vacation short and go to Maui to visit and check out the scene. I hope he is bringing money or something because, so far, nothing has been sent there to help.
The big problem Biden is having, besides pissing off the Democratic voters of that state, is he’s pissing off climate change cultists. According to MSN:
As President Joe Biden prepares to visit Maui, the Hawaiian island devastated by the deadliest wildfire in U.S. modern history, lawmakers and climate groups are begging the White House to do more to prevent future climate-related disasters.
Their argument: If the latest environmental catastrophe won’t spur the president into action, what will?
The fires, likely sparked by the island’s electric utility and heightened by climate change impacts, swept through the Pacific paradise last week, killing at least 110 people and leaving the famed town of Lahaina smoldering in ruins. As survivors search for missing family members and friends, and a housing crisis unfolds amid the vast destruction, climate activists and members of Congress are urging Biden to declare a national emergency over climate change.
Doesn’t matter that the fire was caused by bad infrastructure, bad forest management, agricultural regulations, non-indigenous plants being used and incompetence, but climate change. Joe Biden could kill the yelling by just pointing all this out. He can’t though.
Maybe He Shouldn’t Trust Hunter
Hunter Biden appears only to be worried about himself and doesn’t care about anyone else including his family. Gee, who would have thunk it?
According to the Daily Wire:
Chris Clark, a lawyer for Hunter Biden, threatened the U.S. attorney investigating his client that if his client was charged in the case, the defense would call President Joe Biden to testify, thus creating a constitutional crisis by pitting the president against his own Department of Justice, POLITICO reported.
The warning came after information had leaked to the news media that federal prosecutors believed they had enough information to charge Hunter Biden for illegally purchasing a firearm despite being a drug addict.
“President Biden now unquestionably would be a fact witness for the defense in any criminal trial,” Clark said in a lengthy letter to prosecutors, later adding: “This of all cases justifies neither the spectacle of a sitting President testifying at a criminal trial nor the potential for a resulting Constitutional crisis.”
The Crisis That Just Keeps Giving
The illegal alien crisis that Joe Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas say is not a big deal is becoming a big deal again. A total of 150,000 illegals crossed and that’s the ones we know about. Don’t forget, those that use that stupid app that Biden created and is being hacked by the cartels allows illegal aliens in the country and that doesn’t count as illegal crossings.
Mayorkas assures us that the Biden administration is doing all they can to stem the tide. Here’s another story that proves it. According to the New York Post:
The Biden administration is quietly auctioning off millions of dollars’ worth of unused parts from former President Trump’s border wall for peanuts – in an apparent end-run around pending legislation in Congress.
Since April, GovPlanet, an online auction house specializing in military surplus, has sold 81 lots of steel “square structural tubes” — intended for use as vertical bollards in the border barrier’s 30-foot-tall panels — hauling in about $2 million.
On Tuesday, GovPlanet netted $154,200 for 729 of the 28-foot-tall hollow beams, sold in five separate lots for an average $212 apiece.
Thirteen more lots are set to be auctioned on Aug. 23 and Aug. 30.
But just last month, as part of its annual defense appropriations package, the Democrat-led Senate passed a Republican-sponsored bill aimed at forcing Biden to stem the worsening migrant crisis at the US-Mexico border by extending the wall.
The Finish It Act will make the feds use those materials on new wall construction — or hand the remaining stock over to states like Texas for use in their own border defense projects.
Now, the Biden administration is rushing to get rid of the wall leftovers before the GOP-led House can pass a matching version of the bill and make it law, critics told The Post.
We know that the Canadian government under Justin Trudeau hates the Catholic church, but would they seriously make up stories to get rid of churches? Of course they would.
According to the Post Millennial:
Chief Derek Nepinak of the Minegoziibe Anishinabe said the excavation of a Catholic church on the site of a former Manitoba school found “no conclusive evidence of human remains.” The lands the church is found on have been referred to as “mass graves” by outlets in the mainstream media.
In a video on social media, Chief Nepinak said that a specialized team of archeologists that work with the police were not able to detect any “evidence of human remains” under the Our Lady of Seven Sorrows Catholic Church which is the site of a former residential school in Pine Creek.
He said this “should take nothing away from the difficult truths experienced by our families who attended the residential school in Pine Creek.”
This comes after the Catholic Church and the area around it have been implicated in several stories about mass grave sites of the Manitoba nations that used to occupy the area. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau more than once made a point to bring attention to the hoax, and was infamously seen kneeling beside the so-called graves with a teddy bear in his hand.
Of course, Trudeau decided to demonize the church when this crap he made up. There’s a picture of him kneeling while putting flowers on the ground by a hole with a bunch of rocks. He said:
“We understand that over time burial sites may be lost to the natural elements,” he explained in an earlier press release. “But to bury remains under a building suggests a dark and sinister intent that cannot be unaddressed as we expose the truth of what happened in our homeland.”
I wonder if he is going to apologize to the church and the country about that statement. Something tells me he won’t.
Another example why Republicans and Conservatives need to use the courts.
Joe Biden is really having a bad summer. Politically, mind you, his actual summer is better than a ten year old’s trip to Disney World.
And if you hate this country, just go somewhere else.

A federal appeals court issued a major free speech ruling on Tuesday stating Washington, D.C., “selectively enforced” defacement ordinances against pro-life advocates while allowing far-Left protestors to graffiti “Black Lives Matter” messaging on city streets during the Summer of 2020.
U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit stated: “The government may not enforce the laws in a manner that picks winners and losers in public debates. It would undermine the First Amendment’s protections for free speech if the government could enact a content-neutral law and then discriminate against disfavored viewpoints under the cover of prosecutorial discretion.”
The complaint alleged that D.C. authorities violated the constitutional rights of two pro-life activists by arresting them on August 1, 2020, for chalking “Black Pre-Born Lives Matter” on a public sidewalk outside of a local Planned Parenthood facility.
As the City of Los Angeles struggled to reduce pedestrian deaths after its deadliest year in decades, state lawmakers have repealed jaywalking laws in the name of equity. And one high-profile prosecutor questioned whether the new rules are saving any lives.
So far this year, according to the Los Angeles Police Department, the city is on track to see a reduction from 2022’s 20-year high in pedestrian fatalities. But nearly three-quarters of the deaths involved potential jaywalkers.
“The new law, which legalized jaywalking, was enacted in January of 2023 and has already led to 19 fatalities due to unsafe crossings” out of the 26 pedestrian fatalities in Los Angeles through Aug. 7, McKinney said. “California’s pedestrian fatality rate is [already] 25% above the national average.”
Most of the people jaywalking have been reported to be homeless people.
Target experienced a sales downturn in the second quarter amid ongoing consumer backlash from the retailer’s Pride and transgender merchandise.
Comparable sales slipped 5.4% while the $24.8 billion in total revenue was 4.9% lower than last year.
Negative reaction to Target’s Pride collection had a material impact on sales, Target CEO Brian Cornell said on a call with reporters.
Cornell added: “As we navigate an ever-changing operating and social environment, we are applying what we learned.”
That’s not what Target is there for. Stop “navigating” anything and sell your crap.
Joe Biden is looking more and more incompetent and out of control. People are seeing all this and are really beginning to take notice. How Republicans can’t blow this out of the water, I don’t know.
Over 50% of the last month has been on vacation.
Two four day trips to Delaware.
One four day trip to Camp David.
An 11 day beach vacation in Delaware.
A trip working vacation to the Grand Canyon.
And, now, a working trip to Nevada.
The anniversary of the Afghanistan pull out is this month. He’s getting torn up about that.
The Maui fire is really biting him in the ass and this is all his doing.
His “no comment” when asked about Maui is not going well. It is being compared to him not going to Palestine, Ohio. By the way, there are no plans for him to go to Maui.
All this shows is he’s apathetic and doesn’t care about people.
He released a tweet yesterday saying that each family will receive $700 to help with recovery.
That’s a total of $1.9 million.
There a total of $6 billion in damage.
This is all being juxtaposed with Biden giving Ukraine $115 since his presidency began.
By the way, Biden want to give another $1.2 billion to Ukraine.
Also, the government has done nothing for Maui so far. Nothing.
Then there are the gaffes and outright lies.
He is still holding that he has lowered the deficit by $1.7 trillion. That’s a lie. The deficit is actually higher.
He’s still yelling that Bidenomics is fantastic and Americans have it better.
Inflation is three times higher than it should be and was up is July.
Salaries are way down when compared to inflation.
People are struggling and no one believes this.
He is having a press conference today to talk about how great the economy.
Yesterday, in a speech, he said he was in Pittsburgh and saw one of the bridges collapse. Yeah, that didn’t happen.
Biden claims he "watched that bridge collapse" in Pittsburgh: "I got there and saw it collapse!"
The propaganda arm of the North Korean dictatorship released its first public comment about its detainment of American soldier Travis King, claiming he entered the communist country because he faced mistreatment in the U.S. Army.
King, 23, sprinted across the heavily guarded demilitarized zone (DMZ) line last month while on a civilian tour and was taken into custody by North Korea. When he crossed into the communist country, King had reportedly been disciplined for assault in South Korea and was facing further disciplinary action in the U.S.
North Korean state media said Wednesday that King fled into the country because he “harbored ill feelings against inhuman mistreatment and racial discrimination within the U.S. Army” and “was disillusioned at the unequal American society,” POLITICO reported.
Some Are More Equal Than Others
The family of a Mexican migrant who died in custody of U.S. Border Patrol last year is suing the federal government for negligence, alleging that the man was denied medical care for fatal injuries sustained during a fall from the Otay Mesa border wall.
Joel Reyes Muñoz, 38, died shortly before 3:30 p.m. on Jan. 12, while in custody at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry. He was undocumented at the time of his death.
In a report the following day, San Diego police said Reyes Muñoz, who had not yet been identified, was stricken by some sort of medical emergency as he was waiting for processing in Customs and Border Patrol custody.
However, the complaint, which was filed with the court last Thursday by Reyes Muñoz’s family, alleges that he had sustained “obvious and significant blunt force injuries” in a fall from the high U.S.-Mexico Border barrier prior to his arrest just north of the fence.
The Pinella County Sheriff’s Office shared on Facebook that they get calls “all the time” about passersby seeing manatees by the shore clumped together.
People will call after seeing this startling sight assuming that the manatees are in distress — but they’re actually just mating.
“If you see this, no you didn’t,” the Sheriff’s Office captioned a reel on Facebook, which shows a clump of manatees near the shore with Marvin Gaye’s “Let’s Get It On” playing over it.
“We can assure you they are more than fine,” the caption continued. “Manatees actually mate in herds like these and often they are near the shore. They mate all throughout the year but generally mating herds like these are seen in the summer months.”
The 41-count indictment charges 19 individuals, including Trump, Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Mark Meadows, Ken Chesebro, Jeffrey Clark, Jenna Ellis, Ray Stallings Smith III, Robert Cheeley, Mike Roman, David Shafer, Shawn Micah Tresher Still, Stephen Lee, Harrison Floyd, Trevian Kutti, Sidney Powell, Cathleen Latham, Scott Hall, and Misty Hampton.
The charges include violating the Georgia RICO Act — the Racketeer Influenced And Corrupt Organizations Act; Solicitation of Violation of Oath by a Public Officer; Conspiracy to Commit Impersonating a Public Officer; Conspiracy to Commit Forgery in the First Degree; Conspiracy to Commit False Statements and Writings; Conspiracy to Commit Filing False Documents; Conspiracy to Commit Forgery in the First Degree; Filing False Documents; and Solicitation of Violation of Oath by a Public Officer.
Georgia Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis gave Trump and the 18 other dependents until Aug. 25 to surrender. Willis, Monday night during a press conference, said she would like a trial to take place within six months.
Trump has been charged with 115 counts within the last three months.
Trump responded:
“Nineteen people were indicted, and the whole world is laughing at the United States as they see how corrupt and horrible a place it has turned out to be under the leadership of Crooked Joe Biden.”
“This politically-inspired indictment, which could have been brought close to three years ago, was tailored for placement right smack in the middle of my political campaign, where I am leading all Republicans—by a lot—and beating Joe Biden soundly in almost all polls.”
He also said:
“The racist and corrupt district attorney of Fulton County, which has turned out to be a murder capital of the world with among the highest violent crime levels anywhere in our country, just opened a fundraising site in order to benefit off the things she most campaigned on, ‘I will get Donald Trump.'”
Suicides climbed to a record 49,500 last year, putting the suicide rate higher than it has been since the beginning of World War II, according to government data released Thursday.
Suicide deaths rose 3% in 2022, jumping by more than 1,000 deaths, the new data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show.
Men took their own lives nearly four times as much as women.
A total of 39,255 men committed suicide last year, compared to 10,194 women. Both numbers are higher than in 2021, when suicides spiked 4% and a total of 38,358 men and 9,825 women took their own lives.
White men have the highest suicide rate among male racial groups with about 50 suicides per 100,000 men, the CDC said.
Male suicidality has been a known crisis for years. Risk factors for men can be loneliness, social alienation, or a weakened sense of meaning or purpose in life, which can result from difficult events like losing a job or the dissolution of a man’s nuclear family, such as through divorce, according to academics.
Here is a weird opinion article. This is from Canadian news source, The Globe and Mail. It is an opinion piece by an Angelicin Priest named Michael Coren.
Here’s the article:
I’ve just experienced another attack on social media. The harassment on X, as Twitter now calls itself, usually lasts around 36 hours, and while most of the nasties are trolls and bots, I can’t pretend that the hundreds of comments don’t have an effect. I’m a priest, progressive, outspoken. No point in complaining. But a disturbing new aspect of these bombardments are the repeated and constant false accusations of pedophilia – not a libellous dribble, but a flood.
Basically this guy is yelling about Left wing, secular nonsense and people are saying he’s not a real priest. That’s it. No threats against him or his family or anything like that. They’re just calling him a sham which he is.
It’s not really about me of course, and I’m in good company. Last month in Belleville, Ont., when Justin Trudeau was swarmed by a right-wing mob, one of the hysterical shouts clearly heard was that he was a child molester. It’s grotesque nonsense about the Prime Minister that swamps social media. In fact, there aren’t many politicians and activists on the left who haven’t been accused of this awful crime.
Well, Justin Trudeau does want the government to take custody of children from their parents so he can drug them and cut off their body parts, so there is that.
And with a horribly convenient timing, a new movie, Sound of Freedom, is currently the talk of the far right. Jim Caviezel (who played Jesus in Mel Gibson’s The Passion of theChrist) stars as Tim Ballard, a former government agent who rescues children from sex traffickers. As the critic Sam Adams wrote perceptively for the online magazine Slate, it “arrived in theatres surrounded by a cloud of innuendo put forth by its star and its noisiest right-wing supporters – conspiratorial insinuations about who doesn’t want this story to be told and what real-world traffickers are really up to.”
This movie was based on a true story. All the characters are real and a lot of this happened. There is a lot of sex trafficking in the world. Most slavery is for sex trafficking.
And what is inconvenient about the release of the movie? That’s a strange statement.
Rescuing children is one thing, and entirely admirable, but this phenomenon goes much further than that. Mr. Caviezel himself has spoken of “the whole adrenochrome empire,” describing the substance as “an elite drug that they’ve used for many years” that is “10 times more potent than heroin” and “has some mystical qualities as far as making you look younger.”
Adrenochrome, zealots claim, can only be obtained from adrenal glands in a living human body, thus the need to abduct children. It’s obscene and dangerous quackery, but that doesn’t help convince the cult of the credulous. This rubbish has its origins in a QAnon belief that powerful, international figures intent on resetting the world, controlling people and destroying religious freedom are also kidnapping little boys and girls.
Caviezel was using a metaphor. He wasn’t being literal.
As far as his last statement, that is not QAnon or conspiracy theory. Left has wrote books about it. The World Economic Forum has a website that preaches this. Jeffry Epstein was caught doing this for people like Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton.
That was the lunacy behind Pizzagate in 2016, when thousands believed that a pedophilia ring led by those at the highest levels of the Democratic Party was operating out of a Washington pizza restaurant. More than a million messages were sent on Twitter supporting the fantasy, eventually leading to employees being harassed, followed by a shooting and then an arson.
There’s always been a strong dose of homophobia involved, through the venomous old canard of gay men being groomers, in spite of all the facts and evidence. Facts and evidence, however, are the last things relevant in all this. The trans issue magnified the paranoia, and it’s been pushed into the mainstream by a new generation of right-wing politicians.
What does LGBTQ crap have to do with pedophilia? Could it be that it is that cult that is pushing sexuality on our kids? How about, “yeah”.
When Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill was being debated, for example, Governor Ron DeSantis’s press secretary Christina Pushaw wrote that anyone who opposed the legislation was “probably a groomer.” In 2020 on NBC, Donald Trump spoke of his supporters as being “very strongly against pedophilia and I agree with that. And I agree with it very strongly.”
Yeah, because the bill said you couldn’t sexualize kids in school. If you want to sexualize kids in school, that makes you a groomer.
These statements have enormous influence on the gullible. Bizarre ideas about superwealthy and secretive cabals imposing godless liberalism, fears of children being sexualized or stolen, a terror of change – all this has been empowered by the increasingly media-savvy secular and fundamentalist Christian right.
I would love to debate this guy. Everything he mentioned there is happening. I can give you examples.
The disorder may be unique in details but not in theme. In medieval Europe, antisemitic blood libels accused Jews of kidnapping and killing children so as to use their blood, usually for the Passover ceremony. Pope Innocent IV condemned the libels as early as 1247, but they continued, even as late as the last century. They led, inevitably, to pogroms and murder.
Yeah, all that did happen. But the church admitted it was wrong.
Notice, he’s saying the church is the same today as they were in 1247. That’s not a stretch at all.
Scratch the surface of modern conspiracy theory and antisemitism often appears, but today the accused are usually singled out not by race but ideology, and that includes politicians and public figures considered to be left-of-centre, or even people who support vaccinations, abortion rights, LGBTQ equality, or climate justice policies. This might sound fanciful, but the evidence is sadly abundant.
I don’t see a correlation between antisemitism, abortion and pedophilia as related. I’m pretty sure I can be OK with Jews but think this guy is a pedophile and be against abortion. The three subjects seem to be independent of each other.
It’s particularly tragic as children increasingly suffer under a culture of poverty, food insecurity and forced migration. Ironically, those roaring about pedophile rings tend to ignore all of this and are often downright opposed to legislation that may help children. As well, child abuse and human trafficking are genuine issues and have to be taken extremely seriously; baseless and hateful hyperbole only worsens the situation.
He’s got all the Leftist terms going.
Forced migration means illegal immigration and we are against that mainly because a lot of the child sex trafficking occurs with it. If you follow the laws and prevent illegal immigration, you will hamper child sex trafficking.
Well, pedophilia can be prevented.
There’s no indication that this horror show is diminishing, and it has to be condemned by conservative leaders who consider themselves to be moderate and responsible. They may not be to blame, but their relative failure to speak out simply won’t do. If something doesn’t change soon, I genuinely fear that violence will occur, and judging by the temperature, volume and numbers of the far right, that violence could be of the worst possible kind.
Joe Biden is doing anything he can to bury this Hunter Biden thing. Unfortunately for him, everyone sees it.
With all the turmoil in this country, we sure are ignoring some of the bigger threats outside our borders.
And, I hate to say it, but I told you so.
Dumbasses of the Day
CNN’s Jonah Goldberg: “Large donors actually have a strategic view about moderation, who can win, and who can’t. Small donors are really just venting their spleen with their credit card.”
The Bullshit continues on with Biden’s DOJ and this Hunter Biden disaster. They seem to be doing anything they can to bury this laptop thing.
According to the Daily Wire:
U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland announced on Friday that the Department of Justice has granted the U.S. attorney investigating President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, “special counsel” status.
ABC News reported that Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, asked Garland earlier this week to be appointed special counsel and Garland agreed it was the correct course of action.
“On Tuesday of this week, Mr. Weiss advised me that in his judgment, his investigation has reached a stage at which he should continue his work as a Special Counsel, and he asked to be so appointed,” Garland said in a statement. ”Upon considering his request, as well as the extraordinary circumstances relating to this matter, I have concluded it is in the public interest to appoint him as Special Counsel. This appointment confirms my commitment to provide Mr. Weiss all the resources he requests.”
Garland said that the appointment “reaffirms” to the public that Weiss “has the authority he needs to conduct a thorough investigation and to continue to take the steps he deems appropriate independently, based only on the facts and the law.”
OK, this whole thing is crap. They are using the same attorney that offered that bullshit plea agreement that a judge said was bullshit and forced the tax evasion and gun charges to trial. Biden and Garland are trying to spend the next two years “investigating” this. By then, this will be forgotten.
There are a couple of problems with this. First, they have already been investigating this since 2015 and nothing has been done. These same lawyers have been investigating this. Nothing. Why is this going to be any different.
Next, the whistleblowers have already said they have everything. There is nothing more to investigate. The problem wasn’t that they didn’t have the authority to find anything. It was the Biden administration prevented them from doing anything about it. Assigning the same guy looks like nothing has changed. Even the Left wing media says this looks like the whistleblowers were right and this is just a stalling tactic.
Jake Tapper of CNN pointed this out:
CNN Jake Tapper on DOJ appointing Weiss Special Counsel: “Maybe the whistleblowers were right. I believe a lot of questions being raised by Republicans have merit.” pic.twitter.com/3rquDQwGJM
But there is a bigger problem. The appointment of David Weiss might not be eligible to be special council. According to the Daily Caller:
U.S. Attorney David Weiss’ appointment Friday as special counsel in the Hunter Biden investigation appears to violate a Department of Justice (DOJ) regulation requiring a special counsel to “be selected from outside the United States Government.”
Oops. And it is there. Under Section 600.3 Part a:
Does that sound like David Weiss? Nope. What this means is the investigations must continue. This might force Weiss to do his job and throw this bastard in prison.
Joe Biden has been putting in some work to free 5 civilians who are held under house arrest in Iran. How is he going about getting these people freed? Well, Michael McCaul, the Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee had the answer:
House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) said over the weekend that the $6 billion of Iranian assets that the Biden Administration is reportedly set to unfreeze in exchange for five detained Americans will go toward helping Iran finance their “terror operations” and “nuclear bomb aspirations.”
By the way, this is something that we knew was happening. The Biden administration has been releasing money to Iran for a while. Mind you, Iran is a designated terrorist organization. The are running the war in Syria, are funding Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), Hezbollah and ISIS-Sinai. All of those organizations are fighting Israel. and the are funding the proxy war between Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
Locally, the country is a pure theocratic tyranny, suppressing all protests against the regime through violence. Their women’s rights record is horrid, forcing women to submit under Sharia Law and executing those that do not wear their hijab.
One thing that has been killing the country is their economy. Nobody is allowed to trade with Iran due to sanctions. The only countries dealing with them are Russia, China, North Korea, Cuba and Venezuela. What could be easier to make life easier for these animals than to get a huge influx of money.
And they are not going to use that money to improve the lives of their people. They are going to use it for their nuclear weapons program. They plan to use that to nuke Israel. They ain’t hiding the ball on that. They said that’s what they plan to do. These people are nuts.
But the Biden administrations doesn’t care. They want Iran under this program because they need this jewel of St. Barrack Obama’s regime to be live and they think they can get Iran to join the globalist world community.
None of this is going to work, course. In fact, it’s going to have the opposite effect. Most of these countries are not into globalist thing anymore than most of the people in the United States. China, Russia and Iran are ideological imperialists. They want to world to bend to their ideologies. Thought the WEF loves China, China does not love the WEF. They want world domination. Iran doesn’t want to live in peace and love. They want the entire world under Sharia Law.
By the way, global organizations like the World Economic Forum and the European Union are also ideological imperialists. They want world domination and total control. They just do it so it doesn’t sound so bad, but they are nothing more than fascists.
This is all going to backfire too. Extra money can be used to pushing their ideology and development of weapons. They will be more motivated to take hostages. And worse, the nuclear deal is not going to keep Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. In fact, that boat might have left port already.
According to the Daily Wire:
The Islamic Republic of Iran is reportedly nearing the threshold to test nuclear weapons as their ability to enrich weapons-grade uranium has dramatically accelerated under the Biden administration.
The Jerusalem Post reported that Iran, which is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, has sought technology that is illegal for them to have in order to further develop their nuclear weapons program, according to new intelligence reports out of Germany, Sweden, and the Netherlands.
The reports said that Iran was moving fast in its advances, which “brings the option of a possible Iranian first nuclear test closer.”
Here’s a news flash that we talked about last year. Iran probably already has a weapon and has had one for close to a year. They have always been developing a weapon.
Police in the United Kingdom arrested a teenage girl, whose mother said she has Autism, after the child made remarks that one of the officers resembled a lesbian on Monday, according to a video of the incident.
“She’s getting arrested,” a West Yorkshire police officer told the child’s mother.
“She’s autistic,” the mother replied.
“I don’t care,” an officer said.
Autism, or Autism Spectrum Disorder, can cause misunderstanding from neurotypical individuals since individuals with ASD may have different ways of learning, moving, or paying attention.
When the autistic girl proceeded to hit herself in the head, the mother pleaded with police to maintain their distance.
“She’s in her cupboard, she can’t go anywhere,” the mom said, explaining that her child was being triggered into a mental health crisis by direct contact.
She explained that the child’s “nanna” is a lesbian and married to a woman.
“Go away,” the mom said.
“She’s not homophobic. Go away from my teenage daughter.”
“There’s something wrong with you,” the mom told an officer.
The girl was taken to the police station, interviewed and then released.
Police received a report that the girl was drunk. When they questioned her, she made to “homophobic” and the police said it was captured on camera. So?
This got a lot of protest and the police responded. West Yorkshire Police Assistant Chief Constable Oz Khan said:
“West Yorkshire Police takes its responsibilities around the welfare of young people taken into custody and around neurodiversity very seriously.
“We also maintain that our officers and staff should not have to face abuse while working to keep our communities safe. We are fully reviewing the circumstances of this incident and ask that people avoid reaching any conclusions about it solely on the basis of the social media video.”
Here’s the reality, nothing excuses anything that goes against the LGBTQ+ cult. Even from someone who is as innocent as someone with autism.
I also want to point out that the cop looked like a lesbian.
There is this song that has gone viral by a guy named Oliver Anthony from West Virginia called Rich Men North of Richmond. The song is about the hard times Americans are having with woke ideology and an over reaching government. It has become known as the working man’s anthem.
Of course, it is getting a lot of backlash as a far right song, which it isn’t. Yes, it alludes to crime, Antifa, BLM and Jeffry Epstein but it is only about hard working regular people who are struggling to survive amidst the turmoil of the country. Oliver himself, who is struggling, is not far right or a Conservative. He’s a middle-of-the-road guy politically.
Let’s listen to it.
Country Music Industry Libs:
“We’re gonna do drag shows at our awards ceremonies and cancel anyone who criticizes BLM or ANTIFA. Hey fans, nothing you can do about it!”
Country Music Listeners:
“ok. gonna make this the number one song in earth🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼”
