Abortion is no longer the topic and a Congressional hearing shows why Democrats have decided to jump into the racist ring again.
And the tantrum the women’s national soccer team has been throwing for the last five years has finally hit pay dirt.
This is Such a Bad Platform
We’re back to abortion. Congress had hearings on abortion and things didn’t go well for the pro-abortionists, including a doctor. But first, let’s go over what Leftist pro-abortionists actually think. You did hear this before if you went on Rumble and viewed the video. But now let’s see be reminded what these people think.
They literally want to murder babies AFTER they are born.
I’m not going to comment on this video because it is from last week and was filmed in Venice, California. All these probably are probably on meth. By the way, none of these people will ever be qualified to have a child.
So here is a Dr. Yashica Robinson if she has ever had to discard baby body parts by Congressman Chip Roy. Here’s her non-answer:
Rep. @chiproytx: "What is the latest you have performed an abortion?"
Dr. Robinson: "20 weeks"
Roy: "Have you had baby parts that you've had to discard or store?"
This is what Leftist do. They filibuster. They do this to take away the 5 minutes the Congressman has. Just answer the question. Your answer is 20 weeks. Next question.
Roy states the type of abortion she has to perform at 20 weeks. This is a brutal abortion. She can’t argue with him because it’s what she did.
No, he’s asking you if you had to deal with baby parts. That’s not inflammatory. That’s with a D&E.
She’s lying. Of course she had to deal with baby body parts. That’s part of a D&E.
One of the things these people have to do is put the baby parts in a Pyrex and put the baby back together again to verify they got everything out of the mother. She’s lying.
Why won’t she get called out for lying? She doesn’t put the baby in Pyrex and put the baby back together again. It’s another specialist that does it. She’s lying.
She gal got blown out of the water. Why? She refused to answer questions about the brutality of abortion. Things were only going to worse here.
Here is a broad named Aimee Arrambide. She is the executive director of the abortion rights nonprofit Avow Texas. Here’s she asked when a woman can decide to abort a baby by Mike Johnson of Louisiana.

OK. Supposedly, this broad does work in the medical field. She’s not a doctor but she thinks men can get pregnant. Do you see how insane these people are?
Here’s a statement by Steve Cohen that, honestly, should get him impeached:
No, that’s not how it works. This guy is a lawyer, he should probably know how the Constitution works. Cohen is making the argument Alito has made in his draft opinion. Abortion is not in the Constitution so that kicks the decision to the states to make laws.
The anti-abortionists had little trouble dealing with this. Why? They use use reason and morality for their arguments.
Here is Catherine Glenn Foster, a lawyer and anti-abortion activist. She had an abortion in the past and has regretted it since. She was asked by Jamie Raskin about rape and incest victims. Foster pulled a Steven Crowder on him and he became completely flustered.
Raskin: "The GOP witness is calling for a nationwide ban on abortions with no exceptions for rape and incest."
Foster: "If we added rape and incest exceptions, would you vote for it?"
In what is being called an “equal pay” agreement between the U.S. Soccer Federation and the U.S. men’s and women’s national teams, the men’s team will soon begin subsidizing the women’s team’s bonuses with their own international prize money.
The landmark agreement was reached after years litigation between U.S. Soccer and members of the U.S. Women’s National Team (USWNT), who claimed they were unfairly paid differently than the U.S. Men’s National Team (USMNT). The women made this claim even though each team had their own separate collective bargaining agreement about their pay structure.
So, how are they going to do this? The U.S. Men’s soccer team makes a little over 5 times what women’s team generates, even when the women win. Well, according to the New York Times:
“U.S. Soccer will distribute millions of extra dollars to its best players through a complicated calculus of increased match bonuses, pooled prize money and new revenue-sharing agreements that will give each team a slice of the tens of millions of dollars in commercial revenues that U.S. Soccer receives each year from sponsors, broadcasters and other partners.”
Basically, what they are going to do is combine the dollars from the men’s and women’s teams and distribute that equally. Does that seem equal? No, but it’s equitable. Remember, you can have equality or equity but you can’t have both.
By the way, women’s soccer sucks. It’s slow and it’s really boring. That’s why people don’t watch it. I like to watch quality sports. I don’t watch USFL football either. Why? Because the quality sucks. Let’s not forget, the women’s national soccer team lost to a boy’s under-15 team a few years ago, 5-2. Do you think this is quality soccer?
I just hope they do it with the NBA and WNBA. I would love to see LeBron James have to take a yearly salary cut of $20 million a year so the women can get equal pay.
The indoctrination of children continues to gain steam.
Joe Biden keeps screwing the country.
And, does it matter? We’re all going to die soon anyway.
Some News
Here is some news:
Joe Biden went to Buffalo yesterday and made a speech.
It was very unifying.
White people are all racist.
White supremacy is everywhere.
The system is racist. I do want to remind you that Joe Biden has been part of the system for 50 years so I guess he’s a racist.
We need gun control.
We need censorship.
Blah, blah, blah.
The Department of Homeland Security has credible threats against the Supreme Court and the Justices’ lives.
Pro-abortion groups are promising a “summer of rage”.
I guess we are going to have more “mostly peaceful” riots.
The Disinformation Boards (Ministry of Truth) has been put on hold and Nina Jankovich will not be the director.
The board received way too much backlash.
Jankovich has been caught spreading way too many lies. Social media strikes again.
The stock market is crashing again.
The Dow is down 811 points (2.48%).
The Nasdaq is down 413 points (3.45%)
The S&P is down 122 (3%)
The Indoctrination Continues
This is Gross
We talked about this yesterday but now it appears schools are really trying to get our kids to accept this transgender crap whether we like it or not.
According to Fox News:
The school board of Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) in Fairfax, Virginia, is reviewing updated rules that could potentially expose students to suspension or expulsion for “maliciously misgendering” their peers based on “frequency and intensity.”
The Fairfax County Public Schools Students Rights and Responsibilities (SRR) handbook, which will be voted on May 26, includes in its updated version rules that make “malicious deadnaming” and “malicious misgendering” of classmates a Level 4 offense, which allows for a suspension up to five days “if frequency and intensity are present,” according to page 19 of the document.
“Misgendering” means using the wrong pronouns. “Dead naming” means using the name the child used before he/she used before coming out as transgender.
According to the SRR handbook:
“Using slurs based upon the actual or perceived gender identity” is forbidden under the rules of the document, “which includes, but is not limited to, malicious deadnaming or malicious misgendering.”
Of course this is rather vague. How does the school prove something is malicious? Of course, that really doesn’t matter as we have seen in yesterday’s story. Anyone who does anything, either by accident or on purpose, is going to suffer the repercussions.
Fox News reports further:
The handbook explains that “Level 4 responses” include individualized intervention that often requires disciplinary action. The principal is able to refer such violations to the superintendent, which the document says “may result in a number of different responses based on circumstances and rarely results in an expulsion.”
I bet expulsion is not going to be off the table. By the way, how serious is a level 4 offense? Pretty serious. A level 5 offense includes murder, rape and and possession of drugs or weapons.
Fox News continues:
“This was introduced last year and is not new for this year’s SR&R,” a spokesperson for FCPS told Fox News. “This is about the purposeful and deliberate misgendering of a student aimed at causing harm.” Fox has reached out for clarification regarding the new “frequency and intensity” provision.
The updated rules regarding hate speech also added language “to include outing related to gender identification and immigration status.”
Now, to be honest, I don’t think any of these rules are Constitutional. I think even the Leftist judges might think this is a bit overboard. But I can’t be sure. Brown and Sotomoyer are pretty left.
But what is more important here is this is more evidence that the public school systems do not care about your kids. They care about the ideology. They will ruin your kid’s life if he/she does not follow their ideology. This LGBTQ-crap has become a religion for these people.
This is Worse
A mother went to a school board meeting and it wasn’t a good look for the public school system in Nevada. We’re going to break this one down. I want to show you most of this and show the hypocrisy.
Here’s the first part:
First thing to note is this poor mother is traumatized. The board is cold and uncaring. The girl mom’s was going to call up was her 15-year-old daughter, which is probably why she couldn’t speak. I want to point out her daughter looked like she could burn wood with her eyes.
Continuing:
Her 15-year-old not only had to read this, but had to memorize it and act it out in front of the class. It may be just me but that seems inappropriate, if not, illegal.
If I walked up to a little girl or boy and said that, I would be going to jail and put on the sexual predator list, as I should be. A teacher does it and it’s OK.
Then, we had a little tussle in the stands:
You might not be able to hear what was going on but you had two people screaming.
A Leftist screaming that what the mother was reading was just propaganda.
The other was the daughter screaming that she had to actually do this assignment. And she’s pissed.
Here’s the last clip:
Some Things:
Mom was not engaging with the audience. The audience was yelling.
The moderator is really shaken. She doesn’t know what to do and keeps referring to another teacher.
And here’s the big hypocrisy: The board doesn’t want the graphic language but this woman’s daughter has read this crap. Then memorize it. Then act it out.
Finally, they just cut off her mic.
This poor mother was damaged. She was shaken. She looked like the mother of a rape victim. The daughter was all fury. The good news is she doesn’t look like she wants to be a victim. She looks like she want redemption.
F- those people!
So, I went online and found a book that is in public school libraries. Let me read a page to you. I’d say you should mute this if there are kids around but why? They’re just going to be assigned this crap in a couple of years. I don’t know the name of the book but it did come from a parent on Twitter who forwarded it to Libs of TikTok:
I know that homeschooling is racist and it is a den of those evil religious people, but is this OK/ I think not.
I should have talked about this last week but it’s so cliché I figured you’d be bored with it so I just let it go. But, now, the average gas price in the United States, just passed $4 a gallon. So this seemed like an important story.
According to the New York Post:
The Biden administration has canceled oil and gas lease sales in the Gulf of Mexico and Alaska’s Cook Inlet — dealing a blow to potential domestic fuel protection as gas prices reach new highs across the country.
The Interior Department told The Post Thursday that the Cook Inlet lease sale would not move forward because of a “lack of industry interest in leasing in the area.”
In the Gulf of Mexico, the department canceled two lease sales, citing “conflicting court rulings that impacted work on these proposed sales.”
So there you go. I hope you have the money to buy an electric car because this administration has no intention of dealing with the gas and oil prices.
Everything the Biden administration is doing is on purpose.
On Mother’s day last week, Calvin Klein, the underwear manufacturer that has always been rather risky, made an announcement on Instagram about their new marketing scheme:
“Today, in support of women and mothers around the world, we highlight the reality of new families.
“@k.vventzel is a South African painter and mother to Wild. @erikafeeh and @roberto_bete are expecting parents from Brazil. Roberto is due to give birth to his and Erika’s son Noah any day now. @venedaacarter is a prominent fashion consultant. Her family is Bobbi and Weston.”
And there is a picture of a chick who thinks she’s a man being pregnant.
Couple of things here:
Who said this is a reality of new families? I don’t think this is normal.
The Left says that things like this proves that men can get pregnant. That’s weird, because this chick was a chick. I see that it just proves that women cannot turn into men.
I don’t wear Calvin Klein underwear or anything else so saying that I’m not going to buy them is kind of irrelevant. But it’s crap like this that turns people off.
56% of respondents said they would support a ban, while 34% said they would not. A little over a third of those respondents identified as Democrats, while 37% identified as Republicans, and just under a quarter identified themselves as Independents, according to the survey by the American Principles Project Foundation.
I find it disturbing that only 56% of people polled think that drugging kids is bad but this is just a poll. I also believe a lot of people don’t understand that the hormones being used are permanent. That’s because the media has been pushing that hormone therapy can be reversed. That’s not necessarily true. One of the drugs used for transitioning, Leuprolide, is used on sex offenders for chemical castration.
Fox News continues:
In another question, respondents were asked whether they supported or were against children being pushed into a sex change. Around 63% of respondents agreed that children were too young for the decision. Around 22% of respondents believed that opposition to gender transitioning was transphobic.
Again, 63% seems really low. I have seen other polls that had it in the high 70 percentile. As far as 22% thinking it’s transphobic, I can believe it though I think that’s a little high. Remember it’s just a poll.
The article continues:
The poll was conducted by OnMessage Inc. for American Principles Project (APP) in six Senate battleground states – Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Nevada, and New Hampshire – targeted likely general election voters via telephone. The margin of error for the survey was +/- 2.82%.
So you can see this is not a popular trend among normal Americans. I think the Democrats should run on this in those battleground states. That way the rest of the country can end up like Virginia.
It looks like some of those woke corporations are learning their lessons.
Kids can now get in trouble for using proper English.
And everything is racist.
Not a Good First Day
The new White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, had her first solo press conference since Jen Psaki left. It was a rough one. But her introduction made clear that she’s proud of herself being the first black, gay and immigrant press secretary.
OK, yay! But is she going to be a good press secretary? Well, we got some answers thanks to that racist Peter Doocy from the racist news network Fox News.
Considering Jean-Pierre has called Fox News racist, you know Peter Doocy isn’t going to get any softball questions on her first day. Here he’s asking her about how raising taxes on corporations is going to lower inflation:
DOOCY: "The President's Twitter account posted the other day…How does raising taxes on corporations reduce inflation?"
Comforting to know that she has no way of knowing what the President is saying on Twitter. The “what specific tweet” thing is a deflection to get her more time to think of an answer.
Then she comes up with a word salad that doesn’t answer the question. Doocy is having none of it.
"How does raising taxes on corporations lower the cost of gas, the cost of a used car, the cost of food for everyday Americans?"
She’s actually reading the answer for this question. That’s why she fumbling for words. By the way. I can condense the 300 words she used not to answer the question to 2 words: climate change.
But Doocy wasn’t finished with her. Here he is asking her why Joe Biden didn’t go to Waukesha during the black supremacist attack in a Christmas parade but he is going to Buffalo to address the white supremacist attack.
Peter Doocy asks Karine Jean-Pierre why Biden is going to visit Buffalo but he didn't visit Waukesha:
— The Post Millennial (@TPostMillennial) May 16, 2022
But why didn’t he go to Waukesha? No answer.
Yeah, the press conference didn’t go well. Maybe Biden shouldn’t have hired someone because she was black, gay and an immigrant and should have hired someone who was competent.
The bid entertainment companies might be getting the message after the Disney debacle. Well, wait a minute. In this case, it involves Netflix and their stock has tanked in the last year, so maybe the 500,000 subscribers that gave up their subscriptions had something to do with it.
Variety reports:
Netflix loves to tout its culture of avoiding rules and minimizing corporate red tape. But of course, the company does have operating guidelines, famously detailed in the Netflix Culture document posted on its website. Co-founder Reed Hastings even wrote a 2020 book elaborating on the principles, titled “No Rules Rules: Netflix and the Culture of Reinvention.”
Now Netflix is publishing an update to its corporate culture memo for the first time in nearly five years, a copy of which Variety obtained exclusively ahead of its release Thursday. The last major update was in 2017, when it distilled Hastings’ original 125-slide presentation from 2009 (which has been viewed more than 21 million times).
How woke of them.
The core principles of the Netflix Culture memo, including empowering employee decision-making, requiring candid feedback and terminating staffers who aren’t up to “dream team” snuff, remain intact. But there are some key changes. For starters, the document has a new title: “Netflix Culture — Seeking Excellence” (previously it was simply called “Netflix Culture”).
More significantly, the document adds a new directive for employees to act with fiscal responsibility — a change that comes as Netflix in Q1 saw its first decline in subscribers in more than a decade. The updated Netflix Culture memo also includes a new section called “Artistic Expression,” explaining that the streamer will not “censor specific artists or voices” even if employees consider the content “harmful,” and bluntly states, “If you’d find it hard to support our content breadth, Netflix may not be the best place for you.”
This is a big deal. Don’t forget, this a streaming platform that has Susan Rice on the board and gave a multi-million dollar contract to the Obamas. They are also making a series about a “pregnant man”.
But woke politics has killed them. They’ve lost tons of subscribers and their stock is tanking (over 40%). What’s worse, people have options. I dropped Netflix and haven’t missed it.
That’s what is great about this. It shows that the people and the market have the ultimate power. It also shows that stakeholder capitalism isn’t what’s going to keep a company successful. It’s shareholder capitalism. The shareholders, who invest in Netflix, are the ones who hold the power over the company. In other words, money talks and BS walks.
I can’t wait to see what is going to happen to Disney. They are getting the same crap.
Three Wisconsin boys are facing sexual harassment charges from their middle school over accusations that they used incorrect gender pronouns on a fellow student.
Yep, that’s a thing right now.
The mother of one of the kids, Rosemary Rabidoux, said:
“I received a phone call from the principal over at the elementary school, forewarning me; letting me know that I was going to be receiving an email with sexual harassment allegations against my son. I immediately went into shock. I’m thinking, sexual harassment? That’s rape, that’s inappropriate touching, that’s incest. What has my son done?”
But it wasn’t any of that. By the way, the kid is a straight A student and an introvert. I saw him on television and he looks like a typical nerd. Also, what Rabidoux described is what Title IX defines of harassment. This school is trying to cancel these kids at the age of 13 because they didn’t use some kid’s pronouns that he defined a month before.
Brad Ebert, the school district’s superintendent, told ABC 2 News:
“The KASD prohibits all forms of bullying and harassment in accordance with all laws, including Title IX, and will continue to support ALL students regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, creed, pregnancy, marital status, parental status, sexual orientation, sex (including transgender status, change of sex or gender identity), or physical, mental, emotional or learning disability (“Protected Classes”) in any of its student programs and activities; this is consistent with school board policy. We do not comment on any student matters.”
Here’s the problem with this statement: They weren’t bullying anyone. They just used the proper pronouns for this kid.
That’s another thing. This kid’s pronoun were “they” and “them”. Those are plural pronouns that do not describe an individual. These kids are being condemned for using correct English. Think of that. You still think homeschooling is a bad idea?
Wait, before you homeschool your kids, you must understand that homeschooling is racist (what a great transition, huh?)
MSNBC released an op-ed that says that homeschooling is racist. It is called How the Conservative Christian Right is Hijacking Homeschooling by Anthea Butler.
Let’s go through it:
“Public education has become public enemy No. 1,” the actor Kirk Cameron opines in a promotion for “The Homeschool Awakening,” his documentary scheduled to hit theaters in June. The documentary, funded by the Trinity Broadcasting Network and Cameron’s own Camfam Studios, argues that parents should be homeschooling their children in the wake of the pandemic. However, as Cameron’s quote indicates, this latest project of conservative evangelical education is another salvo in the ongoing evangelical war against public schools.
Pay attention to the language. Notice that she talks about the “attack” on public schools? This opening paragraph, to be a real work of journalism, should also talk about this conflict being fought from both sides.
It should come as no surprise that evangelicals, fundamentalists and other religious conservatives have fought against public education since the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1954 decision in Brown v. Board of Education. The prospect of integrated schools led to the creation of many “segregation academies,” private schools designed to keep African American children and undesirable immigrant groups away from white children. But there was another, more insidious way to circumvent integration: homeschooling.
That’s right, religious conservatives are racist!
By the way, who fought against the ruling and want to continue Jim Crow laws? That’s right, southern Democrats. Joe Biden worked with a bunch of them.
One of the main purveyors of homeschooling was a fundamentalist, Rousas Rushdoony, whose work beginning in the 1960s in establishing Christian day schools grew into the homeschooling movement. He saw homeschooling as a way to cut the government out of educating Christian children and to prepare them to take their place in a theocratic government. Julie Ingersoll, author of “Building God’s Kingdom: Inside the World of Christian Reconstruction,” says Rushdoony “was one of the intellectual godfathers of the Religious Right, but he is often treated like a crazy uncle.”
Crazy or not, homeschooling materials inspired by Rushdoony’s theology are on sale today to parents who homeschool in America, and many of those materials reached parents during the pandemic. Cameron’s documentary promoting homeschooling is not an aberration; it is part of a larger project about dismantling the public education system in the United States.
Wow, what a conspiracy! Christian children should learn about Christianity in their education instead of getting the secular garbage that they get in public school.
I know they hate that Rushdoony’s haven’t been banned and this gets Leftists very upset. Maybe if Rushdoony but reference the male girls and dildos, it would be more acceptable to the Left. books like that are in public libraries and are part of the curriculum.
This dismantling has taken shape over the years in various ways: in segregation academies, in school vouchers, in attempts to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education and even with former President Donald Trump’s appointment of Betsy DeVos to lead that department. Now that her time in government is done, DeVos is speaking at homeschooling conventions, to promote homeschooling and to disparage critical race theory and other “detriments to education.”
School vouchers? Don’t those allow parents to choose what school their kids can go to. Doesn’t that give parents a choice and control the directions of their children’s education? Isn’t the freedom to choose by parents a good thing? Not to the teacher’s unions.
And I thought the schools weren’t teaching critical race theory? Have the public schools been lying to us?
Cameron’s documentary furthers the long-term goal of America’s religious conservatives to dismantle the public school system by promoting homeschooling, an idea that grew in popularity during the pandemic among parents who wanted to make sure their children kept up academically and avoided the coronavirus. According to a report from the U.S. Census Bureau in the fall of 2020, 11.1 percent of parents said their children were homeschooled, compared to 5.4 percent that spring.
Here’s the thing, I want to dismantle the school system too. I want the system to become far more privatized and funded by communities. I don’t want government running schools because the government sucks at everything and they have a tendency to teach children what they want children to know (indoctrination). I want parents and communities to control education. But this is not what Cameron’s documentary does. He’s just showing the problems and secularism in the schools and encourages parents to go in a different direction.
The second thing I want to point out is the doubling of children being homeschooled. She does not mention why. Could it be because their kids have been stuck at home for two years and the teachers never want to go back to school? Because it looks like the schools look like they don’t care about their kids? Could it be that the parents have seen what their kids are being taught and not taught and decided they could do it better?
Notice she just skips over the fact that blacks are also leaving the school system?
Cameron’s homeschooling documentary comes at a time of contentious debate about critical race theory, LGBTQ issues, transgender children and Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” law. Like the documentary itself, those new laws are designed to weaken already debilitated public school systems that are dealing with limited funding, staffing and violence issues. Attempts by religious conservatives to prohibit certain subjects deemed dangerous or inappropriate are not new, but they are now coming in multiple waves across the country.
Why is there debate about all this? I thought the schools weren’t teaching any critical race theory, gender theory and weren’t trans-ing the kids? That’s what we’ve been told.
Could it be that they are teaching this crap and parents don’t want this?
By the way, it’s called the Parental Rights in Education bill.
Homeschooling may have greater appeal now because of these debates and the desire for parents to play a big part in their children’s educational life. It may also arise out of pandemic concerns, but parents unfamiliar with the existing networks of homeschooling run the danger of being drawn into Christian conservative networks and theocratic teaching. Cameron’s says that people choosing homeschooling are having an awakening, but the public needs to awaken to the reality that public schools may disappear if people with his extreme beliefs have their way.
Some things about this article:
It does nothing but condemns the religious right and does not defend the public schools at all.
The article implies racism but doesn’t explain why black parents are homeschooling their kids.
It doesn’t bring up any of the debate points like what is wrong with Critical Race Theory or Critical Gender Theory.
It assumes the kids are actually learning what is important in public schools and doesn’t present stats that would prove it.
It doesn’t mention any of the benefits of homeschooling.
It doesn’t mention any of the negatives of standardized school. They waste a lot of time.
She assumes that homeschooling requires religious education. It doesn’t.
Finally, it demonizes religion.
Public schools are not about teaching math and reading anymore. They are about indoctrinating kids into some of the most perverse philosophies on planet Earth. Philosophies that not only pervert the kids but are made to destroy the nuclear family. Need proof? Just subscribe to Libs of TikTok and look at what teacher are actually telling you on social media.
Parents are getting it that’s why homeschooling has doubled in the last two years and 1 in 10 kids are being homeschooled now. As time goes by, I expect that this is going to go up.
Another tragic shooting by another racist in Buffalo that is going to be promoted by the media finally. This one fits their narrative.
And let’s talk about the baby formula crisis.
Today’s Kamalaism
This one is awesome!
Kamala Harris to world leaders at ASEAN Summit: "we will work together, and will continue to work together, to address these issues, to tackle these challenges, and to work together as we continue to work…" pic.twitter.com/nRiDS9UkzS
This is becoming a cliché but she’s like the kid that has 200 hundred in an essay that requires 500 words.
OK, to the news.
What is the Real Tragedy?
There was a mass shooting n Buffalo, New York on Saturday.
An 18 year old man walked into a grocery store and shot 13 people, killing 10.
11 of the people shot were black.
He was dressed in full tactical gear including a helmet and was carrying a semiautomatic rifle.
The shooter live streamed the shooting on Twitch.
When Twitch discovered the shooting, they pulled it down.
Twitch said the live stream ended after two minutes.
It is unclear if the live stream had any of the shooting.
The shooter posted a 180-page manifesto with anti-Semitic and racist rants.
The manifesto was posted in a Q&A format like the Christchurch shooter.
He was radicalized online while bored from being locked up during the pandemic.
He did not meet with anyone or did not belong to any group.
He stated that he hated that the white race was being filtered out through mixed relationships and it had to stop.
The police think it is authentic but are still investigating.
He has been planning the attack since January.
He picked the spot because it had the highest black population based on the zip code.
He was going to walk through the neighborhood streets, continuing the attack but broke it off.
He was arrested and faced first degree murder charges.
He is facing life in prison.
It did not take long before this was politicized. This things follows three narratives that the media loves:
The country is racist and filled with white supremacists.
The idea is all these mass killing are all by white supremacists.
CNN released an article showing five mass killings were by white supremacists.
One was from 2012.
They failed to mention the mass shooting of the Brooklyn subway that was done by a black supremacists.
They failed to mention the mass shooting by the Black Hebrew Israelites supporter (a black supremacist group) against the people within a Jewish store.
They failed to mention the mask killings of the Waukesha black supremacist.
They failed to mention that the biggest mass shootings of the year were by black gang members.
All Republicans are racist and supported the shooter.
The need for gun control.
And how bad social media is.
There are some things the media won’t talk too much about:
He was radicalized while alone, on the Internet, during the lockdowns. He should have been in school.
Last year, he was investigated for saying he wanted to commit a mass shooting. Nothing was done. Another example how the system failed.
On his rifle were the names of the Waukesha victims. This victims were killed by a black supremacist. This will be the Civil War people keep talking about.
You know what’s really sad? The first thing I think about is, “I hope this guy isn’t white.” I am relieved when I find out the shooter is a person of color and then I can concentrate on the tragedy.
I went to a target and decided to cruise down the baby formula aisle to see how bad the situation is. Guess what? It’s bad. The aisle was empty.
The Biden administration said they knew about this issue back in February. That begs the question: What have you guys been doing about it? Needless to say, they did not have an answer. When asked about what parents should do if they cannot find any formula, Jenn Psaki had a great answer:
Psaki suggests that parents who can't find baby formula should call a doctor. pic.twitter.com/7k9XF4OOOf
— The Post Millennial (@TPostMillennial) May 12, 2022
Um, OK.
She then blamed hoarding by parents (of course):
PSAKI: "What we are seeing which is an enormous problem is hoarding…and people hoarding because they are trying to profit off of fearful parents." pic.twitter.com/EE50jO0NTg
They have no answer. They are doing what they have always done. They are reacting to problems instead of preventing little problems become big problems.
But do you know who is not having issues getting baby formula? Illegal aliens.
A whistleblower released a photo of pallets of baby formula being sent to the border for illegal aliens. The administration doesn’t deny this is happening.
Washington Post fact checker, Glen Kessler said that illegal aliens getting priority for baby formula over Americans is “faux outrage”:
“This is a ridiculous faux outrage. The shortage of baby formula is a serious issue that the administration is seeking to address. But at the same time, the administration cannot be faulted for following the law and providing baby formula to undocumented immigrants.”
Then he sited the 1997 Flores Settlement, which details how border facilities must meet the basic needs of detained illegal immigrant minors, including providing age-appropriate food and drink.
Couple of things here. First, he’s not saying that there is not a formula shortage. He just says that we, as Americans, have no right to be upset that our government is giving criminals formula for their babies when citizens can’t find formula for our babies. Second, this guy must not have any kids and must hate Americans as much as the Biden administration. Can imagine the gall of saying such a thing?
Speaking of gall, there Bette Midler. Bette Midler had a great answer for all those parents that are worried that their kids might starve. She tweeted:
“TRY BREASTFEEEDING! It’s free and available on demand.”
Mind you, Bette only has one kid and I’m pretty sure she used formula because an elitist like that wouldn’t want to be inconvenienced. Not to mention, as a woman, you’d think she’d know that not all women can breast feed.
Aren’t those Leftist a sensitive, empathetic bunch?
Here’s the Story
There are a bunch of reasons why we are having this shortage. Most incline government incompetence.
Baby formula production is down by 43%.
There are only four formula manufacturers. Government regulations make budding producers think twice.
One manufacturer, Abbott, had a plant shut down in February because of a bacteria outbreak. Abbott said they had no signs of the bacteria. The FDA shut down the plant anyway.
There were four kids sickened and one died. The FDA did not investigate the parents on how they gave or handled the formula. They just shut down the factory.
Europe has a glut of formula, but regulations, mostly concerning labeling, and a 17% tariff are stopping us from importing it.
Hell, Mexico has a lot of formula but it’s illegal to bring it into the country.
I believe the Biden administration did know about this months ago. I also believe the Biden administration doesn’t want to be involved in a lot of starving babies. Yes, I don’t think they care much. But I also think they can’t handle this.
Everything this administration does has proven to be wrong. I don’t think this is on purpose. They’re just really bad at this. I’ll go a step further, government is bad at this. Bureaucracy is bad at this. The Founding Fathers knew this. That’s why the Constitution was written the way it was. And they feared what is happening now would happen.
The Biden administration does not prevent, they react. They don’t know how to prevent. This administration is in such a mess, all they can do is react because there is too much to prevent. Afghanistan is the main example. What they can’t fix, they just lie and deny.
This administration is stuck in their ideology. The Great Reset. The environment. Their base. They focus on that no matter what happens to some of the little people. Remember, for the Greater Good. This is why soaring gas prices, inflation, food shortages is seen as a good thing. It is part of bringing on the Greater Good.
Finally, there is an elite class. That class all believes the same thing. It’s not all about money in that class. If it was, Elon Musk would be embraced right now.
The pro-abortion Left is going nuts and the violence begins.
And, since it’s Mother’s Day, the Washington Post releases an opinion piece teaching us what not to do as a mother.
The Temper Tantrums Continue
We know that Leftists can’t control themselves when they don’t get their way. So what’s the best way to get their point across? How about protesting at Catholic churches on Mother’s Day (which they hate because…well…mothers are awesome) and the homes Supreme Court justices?
This weekend, a groups known as Ruth Sent Us organized a walkthrough protest of the homes on=f the Supreme Court justices. This included them posting the home addresses of the Conservative justices: Clarence Thomas, Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanagh (they hate anyway), Neil Gorsuch and John Roberts. These were called “walkthrough protests” which means these protests were meant to be peaceful. Security for the justices was increased and so far there has been no violence.
The other thing they decided to do was protest the Catholic church. These morons entered a church in New York, dressed in Handmaid’s Tale outfits and started singing about killing babies. The group is encouraging pro-abortion Catholics and Evangelicals (that’s an oxymoron) to disrupt services. I’ll have to point out Islamist mosques and Jewish temples are not being protested. Last I heard, those group are just as anti-abortion as Christians. Can we finally admit anti Christian hate?
I will have to create a video of the various protests. A bunch of people are pointing out that these tantrums are not helping their cause. The black guys dressed in drag with newspaper shoved in his shirt to simulate him being pregnant, dancing around in front of a church isn’t a good look.
In a show of what can only be called hate, a Christian posted a requests to pray with activists from Ruth Sent Us. They replied with:
“Stuff your rosaries and your weaponized prayer. We will remain outraged after this weekend, so keep praying. We’ll be burning the Eucharist to show our disgust for the abuse Catholic Churches have condoned for centuries.”
“Weaponized prayer”? This is nothing more than hate. And just to show you how out clueless this group is, Ruth Bader Ginsberg herself said that Roe versus Wade was a bad ruling and abortion needed to be codified by law.
These are hateful, terrible people. Need more proof? Listen to this activist at one of the protests.
I’ll give her credit, she’s not hiding the ball. They know exactly what abortion is and just don’t care. There is no middle ground.
President Biden
Jen Psaki was asked several times about the leaked documents and the protests at the homes of the doxed Supreme Court justices. She answered in the same:
DOOCY: "Activists posted a map with the home addresses of the Supreme Court justices. Is that kind of thing this president wants?"
PSAKI: "I don't have an official U.S. government position on where people protest." pic.twitter.com/AxfYoylN0P
Interesting. She says abortion has been a fundamental right for 50 years. Can we assume it hasn’t been a fundamental right for the last 250 years? Can we assume, by her statement, the Biden administration knows abortion is not in the Constitution? If it is not, can we assume Roe versus Wade is unconstitutional?
The answer is yes on all questions.
The Biden administration just doesn’t care because they go along with the extremists. How much do they go along with the extremists? Leave it to Peter Doocy of Fox News to pull the answer from Jen Psaki:
REPORTER: "Does [Biden] support any limits on abortion?"
PSAKI: No
REPORTER: "Does the president support abortion until the moment of birth?"
The most unifying President in United States history, huh.
By the way, Joe Biden also said Roe versus Wade was not a great ruling and needed to be codified by law.
Democrats really think this is the platform to run on. They think this will make us forget about the economy, the open borders, CRT and CGT in schools, Afghanistan and his other foreign policy disasters. Democrats also assume most of the country is into radical abortion values.
I don’t want to hear any more whining and crying about January 6th. What the radical Left believes is so much worse, so much more violent, so much more frequent and so much more disgraceful.
I Don’t Think They’re Aware of Anything
The Washington D.C. Metro police released a statement stating the understood the concerns about the First Amendment conflict:
“MPD is aware of potential disruptions associated with First Amendment demonstrations. MPD will be monitoring, assessing and planning accordingly with our local and federal partners. We have increased available resources, including the activation of our Civil Disturbance Units, in preparation for these activities.”
Of course, anyone with half a mind would ask, “What does that mean?” They were asked about that and there was no reply.
Here’s the thing: A right is a right if it does not impede on the rights of others.
If these protestors are protesting outside a church without impeding or threatening the congregants, fine. It’s tacky, cheap, misdirected and, as we’ll see, counter productive, but it’s their right.
But if they impede the congregants (which is a crime) or they walk into the church to disrupt the service (which is also a crime), they have impeded the rights of others and can’t scream First Amendment anymore.
The problem I see is the police seem to weigh the First Amendment right of the protestors with more weight than the First Amendment rights of the churchgoers. This is what happens when one group demonizes and other group. They are see as less human and less deserving. They shouldn’t have rights.
These protests are threatening and silly but so far they haven’t been violent. Don’t count on that lasting much longer. But, one thing I asked myself, was what is their point? They are not changing anyone’s mind. I fact, it appears to be doing the opposite effect.
According to the Washington Post The five justices who want to overturn Roe still want it overturned. Chief Justice John Roberts (probably one of the worst chief justices in history) is trying to convince Barrett and Kavanaugh to accept a more incremental ruling to putting limits on abortion (which, so far isn’t working). This is probably why the opinion hasn’t been released early.
Clarence Thomas also said that the court wasn’t going to be manipulated by public opinion. He said at a judicial conference on Friday:
“We are becoming addicted to wanting particular outcomes, not living with the outcomes we don’t like. We can’t be an institution that can be bullied into giving you just the outcomes you want. The events from earlier this week are a symptom of that.”
This is what the leaker and the unhinged protestors don’t get. This is probably going to have the opposite affect.
First, if the Supreme Court changes its mind, the mob will win and we can expect more leaks like this in the future because it will have worked.
Second, this will be seen as the most cowardly Supreme Court in history. None of them are going to want that. By the way, Chief Justice Roberts is the epitome of a coward.
Third, the Conservative justices know this will end the Founding Fathers vision of the Supreme Court. It will just become another political branch of the government. For all intents and purposes, this will end respect for the Constitution and we might as well just elect judges.
Finally, Justice Alito’s opinion was on mark. Anybody who knows Roe versus Wade knows it.
On Mother’s Day, there is nothing like releasing an op-ed trashing boys and showing the world how to be a bad mother. Leave it to the Washington Post to bring this to light. In a n article called Raising a Feminist Son Seems Easy. A Daughter? Much Trickier. by Kate Cohen.
This article is interesting because this is exactly how not to raise kids.
When I was a young mother, I was certain my husband and I could raise our two boys to be feminists. We took all the necessary steps. They got a clunky but equitable surname and painted toenails upon request.
They also got a male role model with traditionally “masculine” jobs (farmer, builder) but also plenty of stereotypically “feminine” traits. He bonded with babies, treasured his female friends and wept through the opening sequence of “Up.” For my part, I could teach them to cook, write thank-you notes and not be grossed out by menstruation.
My God:
This article is already annoying as hell.
The woman is a narcissist. She “I” four times in five sentences and when she said “we” she might as well said “I”.
What kind of father is this? I would never let my son be emasculated by his mother like this?
I saw “Up” and I cried in the beginning too. Guess what, I can cry when I see something sad and still be masculine.
I know women who are grossed out about mensuration.
Finally, when did cooking, cleaning and washing clothes become feminine jobs. Guess what? You need to be able to that stuff to become an adult. Mommy didn’t come over to my apartment and clean up after me. I had to do it myself. I learned to sew in the army.
Continuing:
Picture me whistling down the road with a double stroller, confident that we could bring up fair-minded and whole human beings.
Now picture me stopping in my tracks when I learned that our third child would be … a girl.
What would she learn from my example? That women do the cooking and write the thank-you notes? That mothers put their families first? Sure, my husband did that, too, but when he did it, it was progress; when I did it, it was the 1950s all over again.
Even worse: As a feminist, I was good on theory but mediocre in practice. I shied from conflict, craved approval and reflexively deferred to male authority. I knew that trying to get thinner to conform to patriarchal beauty standards was a betrayal both of my intrinsic self-worth and of women everywhere, and yet every day, I tried anyway. Every single day.
Some things:
The reason this is such a tough thing for this woman is she’s so busy trying feminize all the men in her life, she doesn’t know how to feminize a girl.
Then, all the insecurities hit her. Everything she was teaching the boys was the stereotypical female she didn’t think a feminist should be like.
Then she goes off on her own insecurities and blames the patriarchy.
Maybe she should stop trying to silo men and women and realize both men and women have strengths and weakness that are different. If she would just let everyone in the family evolve naturally, they’d probably all be happy and well-adjusted.
Continuing:
What if my daughter grew up to be like me? (Insecure, confused and unhappy)
I was on guard from the moment she was born. No Barbie dolls shall breach this perimeter! But as soon as she went to preschool, princesses and teen pop stars entered her consciousness and worked their Disney magic. At age 3, she would wear only dresses and announced, to her brothers’ consternation, that pink was a “girl color.”
I couldn’t control her taste, I thought, but I could control myself. I made sure to praise her brains and not her looks. I refrained from counting calories in her presence. And I stopped hugging her without permission.
Why is she trying to control anything?
Even the author has the same feminine wiles that this little girl has. She just tries to hide and suppress them. This is the problem with radical feminism. It tries to make a person who they are not. It tries to make men and women the same. It tries to feminize men a de-feminize women. It’s completely illogical.
Men and women are wired differently. We don’t understand each other. A husband and wife in a happy marriage will spend our lifetimes trying to figure each other out. This broad is such a narcissist, she thinks she knows what’s wrong with the boys and thinks she’s going to fix them.
Well, good luck with that. Her sons are going to grow up to hate her and her husband is going to remain distant.
That last one took me longer than I like to admit. She was 12, and the #MeToo movement was pointing out just how casually and commonly girls had their bodily autonomy taken from them. I realized how often I had made her kiss this or that relative whether she wanted to or not, ignoring her reluctance in the name of politeness.
Just a little FYI on the #MeToo movement, a lot of women were lying or exaggerating. Hell, I’ll go in with the leap that most women were lying or exaggerating. The Johnny Depp/Amber Heard trial is showing us that.
I began to ask for permission before hugging her. When she said no, I felt a kind of woeful joy. As a girl, I had not fully believed I had a right to my own body; maybe, as a woman, I still didn’t. But she did.
This is an emotionally lost woman. She’s happy when her daughter doesn’t want to hug her?
So when she started wearing makeup and asked for a razor to shave her legs, I was conflicted. Clearly, she was under the sway of the patriarchal beauty standards I so desperately wanted her to defy. But just as clearly, she was defying us.
Growing up, I had done the opposite: declined to wear mascara or shave my legs or even pierce my ears, not for myself but because I didn’t want to disappoint my left-wing father. That’s right: I totally stuck it to the patriarchy to please a male authority figure.
That explains a lot.
Needless to say, I bought my daughter the damn razor. Who was I to lecture her?
Isn’t that what she’s doing to her sons?
I had the same feeling when she fought with her dad, which she did often as a young teen: heated skirmishes between two strong-willed people whose politics were close enough to clash. Visiting her afterward in her room — no, she did not want a hug — I was tempted to suggest that she yell less and placate more. Be more like me, in other words.
I can tell you, right now, dad is not strong willed if he’s letting this harpy treat his sons like she is. Also I hardly doubt this broad placates to anyone.
By the way, who was right in these arguments. Was it the 10-year-old girl or was it the father. Bet you know who this gal thinks was right.
What’s worse, she’s being taught not to respect her father. Is their any man in the future this kid is going to respect? That’s going to make a lonely woman because a real man isn’t going to put up with that.
But I didn’t. I was astonished that she could make a smart, passionate argument and stand her ground. The least I could do was refrain from chastising her for it.
Well, there’s the answer. The daughter would have been right no matter what.
Her stance on makeup has since shifted, but her sense of self-possession hasn’t budged. The other day, while she was arguing with her father, her brother sat beside her heckling nonstop. Annoyed, she paused midsentence and turned to him. “I get that you like to make fun of me,” she said, “but wait until I’ve finished what I’m saying and then make fun of me.” He shut up. And she turned back to her father to finish making her point.
I don’t think that was a real clever response.
I pictured her then with a sword in each hand, parrying with her left while advancing with her right. She definitely didn’t learn that from her mother. But I hope I have modeled one lesson for my daughter: It’s never too late to do better.
Maybe one day I’ll grow up to be like her.
I am going to play Nostradamus.
Half of what she is saying isn’t happening.
If it is:
Her husband will stay with her because no other woman will have him. Women actually like masculine men.
Her sons will grow up emasculated, insecure, alone and making nothing of themselves. They will meet some chick at a feminist rally, wearing pussy hats. Get married and be emasculated for the rest of their lives. Just like mommy did. Money says one will end up being a serial killer.
The daughter will become an overbearing, narcissistic bitch and probably will end up alone like most feminists.
This Kate Cohen has it all wrong and I guarantee you she’s a miserable person. Kids do not need to be molded. They need to be led and nurtured. She does not do any of this. Kids need to grow and learn on their own. They need to drawn down the path to treat all respect.
The Senate voted on an extreme version of abortion. It didn’t go well.
Lori Lightfoot is ready to go to war over abortion but no one is sure what she’s going to fight with.
And Madonna hasn’t accepted that she’s not hot anymore.
Dems Are Going All In
The Democrats are going all in on this abortion thing. They’ve decided, for some reason, this is the thing to run on.
Chuck Schumer decided to put a radical abortion bill to a vote on the Senate floor.
A Democrat-sponsored bill that would have legalized abortion through all nine months of pregnancy failed in the Senate on Wednesday by a vote of 51-49.
The bill is known as the Women’s Health Protection Act passed the House in September and would have allowed abortion up to birth. It was not a codifying Roe versus Wade. Not one Republican voted for it and Democrat Joe Manchin voted against it.
Some things about this:
What was this suppose to accomplish?
This was a radical bill that went beyond Roe versus Wade.
It shows Democrats actually want to kill viable babies.
There was no way it was going to pass so it is a loss for the Democrats.
Most people do not support this type of radical abortion laws.
There is now screaming about the filibuster, especially from Elizabeth Warren. They didn’t even get 50 votes. The filibuster did not come into play.
Just dumb. It shows that the Democrats are a mess.
This is just a sad story and has a special place in my heart.
According to the Daily Wire:
Data from the CDC’s National Vital Statistics System for the year 2021 predicted that 107,622 Americans have died from drug overdoses. The data is not final, and could be under-reported because the data is not complete, but it would mark the largest number of Americans who have died from drug overdoses on record in a single year, and an increase of about 15% from 2020, when 93,655 people died from overdoses. Overdose deaths have also increased by about 50% since 2019 when around 72,000 people died of drug overdoses.
California led the nation in total overdose deaths, with 11,704 predicted deaths for the year 2021.
Florida came in second, with 8,171 predicted deaths.
Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Texas all suffered more than 5,000 predicted deaths.ww.dailywire.com/news/record-number-of-americans-died-from-drug-overdoses-in-2021-cdc-data-show
California also led the nation in year-over-year increases, with about 2,100 more deaths in 2021 than in 2020.
In terms of largest year-over-year percentage change, Alaska led the nation with a 75% increase over 2020.
People are blaming the pandemic for the increase in drug overdose deaths.
Maritza Perez, director of national affairs for the Drug Policy Alliance, said:
“The pandemic really upended so many people’s lives, especially people already living at the margins. People lost their jobs, they were isolated. These are all factors that increase problematic drug use.”
We need to remember this the next time we run into a pandemic and it will happen. We have basically destroyed the country over the overreaction to this pandemic. People have died, not only from the China virus, but from the bad policies we put in place.
But the article also skips kind of an important piece. Illegal immigration. Most of the fentanyl in this country is coming over the border. China and Mexico are using the open border to get drugs into this country.
You knew who knew that? President Trump.
Former Defense Secretary under Trump, Mark Esper, claims in his upcoming book that Trump on two occasions wanted to launch some patriot missiles into Mexico to destroy the cartel’s drug labs. The missiles could be launched secretly and the United States could deny they did it. Esper said this would not be a good idea.
Esper was not a fan of Donald Trump. According to the Daily Caller:
Esper also claims Trump is “an unprincipled person who, given his self-interest, should not be in the position of public service.” Esper allegedly considered resigning several times but was allegedly worried that should he resign he would be replaced with a pro-Trump loyalist, which Esper believed would be unfair to the American people.
I am very skeptical of folks that worked with Trump. Many don’t like him. But do I think Trump might have said this? Yes. I would bet a buffalo nickel on it.
Heck, I have always thought we were going to need to do something about these drug cartels. I have even said the best way to deal with them is to go in militarily. We can do that on the basis that the cartels are a clear and present danger to the United States. With 107,000 people dying of drug overdoses, I think the argument is pretty solid especially since Mexico can’t seem to control the cartels for whatever reason.
Trump’s idea might not have been the best, though I think it is, but at least he’s acknowledging a problem and thinking outside the box to solve the problem and protect Americans. Do you see any other politicians doing anything or even acknowledging the the real crisis?
Chicago mayor, Lori Lightfoot, probably the worst mayor in America today, decided to throw her hat in the abortion debate.
She tweeted:
OK, there are some real problems with this:
Lori Lightfoot is a lesbian. What does she care about abortion? She can’t get pregnant.
What does the LGBTQ+ community have to do with abortion? Most of them can’t get pregnant.
Call to arms? Really? In Chicago? I’ll take that fight!
Chicago has the most restrictive gun control laws in the country.
The only people that have guns are the criminals.
What are they going to fight with? Sticks?
This is what the pro-abortion Democrats are doing. They are trying to conflate abortion with all the other economic and intersectional talking points available out there.
The economy needs abortion.
People of color needs abortion.
LGBTQ+ needs abortion.
Gas prices need abortion.
Inflation needs abortion.
None of this stuff makes any sense which is why they are so into shutting everyone up.

Madonna, the 63-year-old singer has figured out a way to make money in her old age.
According to the New York Post:
The 63-year-old singer teamed up with nonfungible token extraordinaire Beeple to create a series of X-rated graphics showing her fully nude and giving birth to butterflies, insects and trees. Called “Mother of Creation,” the NFT collection, which will be sold for charity, also includes a 3D model of Madonna’s vagina — which is on full display in cartoon form on the collection’s highly (don’t say we didn’t warn you) NSFW website.
What is an NFT you might ask. It stands for nonfungible token and what it is a unique digital asset that cannot be copied and that there is only one of. Basically, it is a digital piece “artwork” that is unique and its uniqueness is determined by an encryption token built within it. It’s hard to believe that someone could go into Photoshop and create a picture that someone would pay good money for but there are. One NFT sold for $91 million.
Anyway, Madonna made three NFT videos with her naked and flashing her cooch around.
Mother of Creation where a tree grows out her cooch.
Mother of Evolution where butterflies fly out of her cooch.
Mother of technology where robot worms crawl out of her cooch.
Why anyone would want bugs crawling out of her cooch, I don’t not know but whatever. Here is an example of one of her NFTs.
Yeah, it’s crap but someone will pay for it. Good news, it is going to charity but this shows how desperate Madonna is for attention.
It also shows how stupid people are that pay for this crap (it’s a 63-year-old woman cooch that has seen more action that Tom Brady). Just to I screen recorded this trash and I now have a copy of what people are going to pay millions of dollars for.
It might finally be over. Roe versus Wade might be done.
A Momentous Ruling and Sin
A draft of the ruling for Dobbs v. Mississippi (2022) has been leaked by someone at the Supreme Court. It was leaked to Politico, obviously by some activist on the court. We are going to talk about the ruling as it is written and talk about the reactions. Then we are going to talk about the leak and the reactions to the leak.
Believe it or not, we pretty much know where this leak came from.
The Ruling
The best way to go through this is to use the words that Justice Samuel Alito used. So let’s go through the highlights that Politico brought forward.
Some things:
This is important. Alito is pointing out that abortion was not popular. Most of the country did not want it.
He also points out that this was a national debate. Roe versus Wade ended that debate.
What he says here is true. Abortion was not a debate when the Constitution was written. It is not part of the Constitution and there is no reference to it anywhere. This is right. The Constitution is a living document but it must go through the amendment process. The courts can’t do that.
Yes, the courts had no right to make up laws.
Again, this is a Federalist, states rights argument. This is correct.
This is really the only argument the Left is pointing to. Stare Decisis is the the belief that a law cannot be overturned because of precedent. This just isn’t the case. There are a lot of precedents that have been overturned because they were bad precedents (Dred Scott would be one of them).
This was a bad precedent.
Abortion was never in the Constitution.
Privacy, which the court cited as the reason for abortion, is also not expressly stated in the Constitution.
The Supreme Court did not have the science in 1973 that we did as early as 1980 with the test tube baby.
And it was a real stretch to apply privacy to the killing of babies.
This is a long statement but it is right on.
This is exactly correct and I am shocked that this court finally had the guts to say it. This is what people don’t get: This ruling completely ignored the Constitution.
This is a bit of a cowardly statement. The ruling was unconstitutional. He should have said that. If the federal government can’t make a law, the states must determine the laws.
They know now. So let’s talk about how this ruling got released.
White House Response
As you can imagine, everyone on the Left is flipping out.
President Biden, always the unifier, released a statement today:
“We do not know whether this draft is genuine, or whether it reflects the final decision of the Court. With that critical caveat, I want to be clear on three points about the cases before the Supreme Court.
“First, my administration argued strongly before the Court in defense of Roe v. Wade. We said that Roe is based on ‘a long line of precedent recognizing ‘the Fourteenth Amendment’s concept of personal liberty’… against government interference with intensely personal decisions.
“I believe that a woman’s right to choose is fundamental, Roe has been the law of the land for almost fifty years, and basic fairness and the stability of our law demand that it not be overturned.
“I directed my Gender Policy Council and White House Counsel’s Office to prepare options for an Administration response to the continued attack on abortion and reproductive rights, under a variety of possible outcomes in the cases pending before the Supreme Court.
“We will be ready when any ruling is issued.”
Some things:
We do know the draft is genuine now. John Roberts said it was.
They did argue strongly for a precedent that was garbage.
The “concept” of “personal liberty” was define as privacy by both Roe and Casey. The problem is there is not absolute to privacy. Casey actually said there were no limits to one’s potential actions because “personal liberty” is defined in the 14th amendment. That’s not true.
Even Ruth Bader Ginsberg said Roe was a trash ruling.
He concluded by saying something that is true:
Biden, on Tuesday, added that if the Supreme Court “does overturn Roe, it will fall on our nation’s elected officials at all levels of government to protect a woman’s right to choose.”
“And it will fall on voters to elect pro-choice officials this November. At the federal level, we will need more pro-choice Senators and a pro-choice majority in the House to adopt legislation that codifies Roe, which I will work to pass and sign into law.”
I just want to point something out: 60% of the population believes there should be tight limits on abortion. Most believe that should be during the first trimester or the first twelve weeks. The Mississippi law sets it at 15 weeks.
Let’s talk about what is going to happen here if this holds as the ruling (and I think it will).
States that want abortion will continue with the abortions. But they will go extreme, supporting abortion to the moment of birth to even after birth.
States that don’t want abortion will ban it. There are a lot of states that hate abortion.
By the way, that’s how the government is suppose to work. States have rights and the federal government can only deal with what’s in the Constitution.
There will be extremes happening:
Like I said, states like California and New York will probably support infanticide. The 24 week limit would be gone.
States like California will pay for people in other states to come to their state using taxpayer money to get an abortion. California is already proposing this.
There will be calls to end the filibuster.
There will be calls to pack the Supreme Court.
There will be hit pieces on the Conservative justices.
There might be protests and riots.
There will be programs in blue states to get people from red states to move to them. States like California and New York
What this also is going to do is put abortion on the same path as slavery. A path to its end. I think that’s a good thing.
The elites get together and help to create new Republican campaign ads.
The threats against Elon Musk continue.
And Amazon employees show their true colors.
An Elite Get Together
On Saturday night, they held the White House Correspondence Dinner. If you don’t know what that is, it’s a celebration of the news media. It is usually run by a comedian and he roasts the President. It has not been really a thing anyone paid attention to over the last several years. It was not held last year because of the China virus and President Trump never went because he hates the media.
Per tradition, there are always some really distasteful jokes. Remember, this was the same dinner where a comedian made fun of Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ looks. Which, by the way, she took like a champ.
Here is Noah making fun of the economy under Biden:
Trevor Noah: Since you’ve come into office, things are really looking up. Gas is up, rent is up, food is up! Everything!
Now, this would be a good joke because it’s true. I didn’t think it was funny because I knew where he was going before he went there. What was distressing people on Twitter and I don’t blame them was the fact that Joe Biden was laughing hysterically. I can’t think of anything more elitist than a President that laughs at the mess he created.
And people are suffering. Josie spent $250 at the grocery store and that goes along with the $250 she had to pay for her car registration. This is killing her financially. It really is no laughing matter. But Old Joe doesn’t take the economy serious and doesn’t care. It doesn’t affect him.
Here is Trevor Noah pissing on Ron DeSantis. No, he wasn’t there. DeSantis is too busy making Florida awesome while the rest of the country falls apart:
I’m not surprised by this. Ron DeSantis is going to start taking hits from the Left now that it’s looking like he is going to be the next President. I think even Trump is going to go by the wayside and pull away from 2024.
But this is how the media treats Republicans and Conservatives. Not only was everything he said just wrong, but it was mean and not funny. This stuff used to be funny. But it’s not funny. It’s just mean.
Here is Old Joe, probably after a vitamin B shot, trying to be funny while mocking Republicans:
They couldn’t at least get his bow tie straight? This is so embarrassing for our country.
He should worry about the midterms and there is no way in hell he is going to get re-elected.
I also want to point out you know you’re not doing great when the only person laughing at your joke is you.
I do like his last joke about Brandon. It was funny. But I thought it was funny because Joe Biden is completely clueless that he has become a national joke. He’s become a joke in this country and around the world.
Here is Trevor Noah making, I think, a rather tasteless joke about our retreat from Afghanistan that also just got railed online:
Trevor Noah: "Please be careful leaving tonight. We all know this administration doesn't handle evacuations well." #WHCDpic.twitter.com/6QLR5JlmH6
I always give comedians a pass. Comedians are there to pick at things. I wasn’t that offended too much about this and, honestly, it was just a bad joke. But it was ill-timed. By the way, he isn’t the first comedian to do this. Gilbert Godfry (may he rest in peace) made a poorly timed joke about 9/11 during a roast of Hugh Hefner that left the crowd silent and one person yelling, “too soon”.
This was an ill-timed joke. Some soldiers of fortune are saying there are 10,000 American citizens and American allies stuck in Afghanistan and left to the tender mercies of the Taliban. Thirteen soldiers will killed in a terrorist attack. We left $83 billion dollars in military gear including helicopter, drones and weapons. Human sex trafficking is happening. The economy is dying. People are starving. Nothing has been resolved and the Afghanistan disaster isn’t over.
Yeah, the joke was, not only not funny, it was ill-timed.
Senate Democrats are contemplating bringing billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk before Congress for questioning over his future plans for Twitter.
Twitter announced on Monday that the social media giant and Musk, the world’s wealthiest man, had reached an agreement for Musk to purchase the company at $54.20 a share and take it private. Musk has criticized Twitter’s moderation policies and said that the platform should take an approach more in line with the First Amendment.
“We’re thinking about it,” Senate Commerce Chair Maria Cantwell (D-WA) told Bloomberg in response to a question on whether Democrats planned to question Musk.
The Senate Commerce Committee has held hearings with major social media platform heads in the past, such as former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who heads Facebook and Instagram. The committee has also had Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai to testify.
You knew this was coming. What do they want to find out? It’s going to be a private company. Musk doesn’t have to say a damn thing about what his strategies for his private company. Every company I worked for had company secrets that were never disclosed to the public. You could be fired for disclosing secrets.
Ed Markey, the communist; yes, communist, Senator from Massachusetts said:
“It’s a technology which is central to democracy and our economy and it is important for the representatives of the American people to hear what the new owners intend on using that technology to accomplish. We have to understand the censorship or lack thereof, content moderation or not, that is going to be the policy for the new owner.
“In terms of what the values are that this company is going to be creating for the new Elon Musk Twitter world, I think that’s actually a necessary role for Congress to play.”
He never condemned Twitter when they censored Republicans and Conservatives. He never questioned Google or YouTube or Facebook or Instagram or TikTok.
Again, it’s going to be a private company. Musk owes Congress nothing.
Listen, what Democrats are worried about is that Musk is going to do what he said he was going to do: allow for free speech, limit censorship and release data on the algorithms. Leftists don’t want any of that stuff.
There is a children’s book out there by a guy named Matt Walsh, a podcaster from the Daily Wire. The book is called Johnny the Walrus. The book is about a very imaginative boy that, one day, believes he’s a walrus. His mother, at first, thinks it’s cute but then is pressured by social media to realize that Johnny actually is a walrus and she must transition him to be a walrus.
Yes, the book is a troll railing against trans-ing kids. I will read the book to you in a video cast this week (I did buy the book).
The book, though a joke for the most part, became extremely popular. It was released in November and sold out in a day. Millions of copies were created and sold on Amazon. Matt Walsh went to number one on the Amazon charts and has been in the top three for LGBTQ literature.
Needless to say, this flipped out Amazon management. They needed to do something. So they had a meeting that was, again, leaked and his book was the topic.
Some things:
The book is a 27-page children’s board book.
It is not troubling or traumatic.
I also want to point out that all these people in this video sound like they are part of the LGBTQ community so I bet they are biased.
Here’s this gal bitching and moaning to Amazon about the book. It’s a little long but worth the listen.
Some things:
This broad is unhinged.
There is nothing in the book about bullying. In fact, it is the mother that is being bullied by the trans community.
There is nothing about sending someone to kill trans kids.
There is nothing in the book about committing or forcing someone to commit suicide.
And, of course, she’s part of the LGBTQ and the Amazon employee on the phone is part of the LGBTQ.
This gal needs a job. She has way too much time on her hands.
Here’s the meeting lead talk about the book and how Walsh manipulated Amazon’s algorithms:
Some things:
It is a children’s book.
There is no hate in the book. It disparages no one. It condemns no one.
Walsh and the Daily Wire did not manipulate anything. They did add it as an LGBTQ book as a counter to all the other LGBTQ trans books out there. There’s nothing wrong with that.
The book sold out. Did the Daily Wire, who published the book, manipulate everyone to buy the book? That’s why it ended up #1 in the LGBTQ section.
Maybe they should be more concerned about the other books in the LGBTQ category sucking.
Here’s Chuck giving his thoughts:
Some things:
He sounds like he might be part of the LGBTQ community.
Notice, they want to ban the book. Chuckie, that’s his name, doesn’t want Amazon to sell it at all.
This is called an echo chamber.
By the way, someone didn’t like what was being said. They leaked the video.
Some things:
There’s nothing disturbing here. Walsh, and most of the country, don’t believe in this transgender crap.
Walsh isn’t “tricking” anybody. He’s very clear about what he thinks of trans-ing kids.
The books, What Is a Woman, is his main argument with the trans community. He doesn’t believe in people transitioning to the opposite sex because it doesn’t happen.
Whenever he debates, and he does a lot, the first thing he asks the pro-trans person is, “What is a woman?” and they have no answer.
The title of his book is his main argument against the trans philosophy.
Finally, we get the emotional response to such a “hateful” white supremacist. Tears included:
Jeez, toughen up, buttercup. It’s a children’s board book.
Amazon ended up taking the book off of the LGBTQ list and forced the publisher to cease with their advertising campaign because it was “hateful”. The Daily Wire said “no” so Amazon took it off the site anyway. As of today, they haven’t banned the book yet. I’m pretty sure they won’t because it is making a ton of money and Amazon will get sued.
It is still number one in political commentary and opinion.
Walsh went on Tucker Carlson’s show because Tucker loves him. Here’s the introduction:
He then plays the video clips you just listened to.
Walsh then gives his argument in a cardigan sweater because he is, after all, a famous children’s book author and that’s what they wear:
Some things:
Is anything he is saying really that controversial?
By the way, you can tell he is trolling.
Of course, here is the important question:
That is the question and they are already doing it. Amazon has banned books. Amazon has marked literature like Shakespeare and Twain as problematic.
Good news, people are pushing back. This book being a number one best seller proves it.
Amazon leadership held a session for employees dealing with the “trauma” of Matt Walsh’s book becoming a best seller and dealing with his trolling. They strategize on how to demote it on their site and claim he will get people killed. @MattWalshBlog broke them. pic.twitter.com/AKH8ihO0iV
More from the Amazon therapy session for trauma from Matt Walsh’s books: They accuse Matt of hate speech and the host literally breaks down in tears. Attendees are warned “brace yourself” before a clip of Matt reading his book is played. We are living in different realities. pic.twitter.com/naxlcG7RvD
Project Veritas released an audio of an all hands meeting Twitter had after Elon Musk bought Twitter. It is very telling. It involves the Chief Marketing Officer, Leslie Berland and Chief Executive Officer, Parag Agrawal. We are going to break this video up a bit to address it, step-by-step.
Here is the Chief Marketing Officer, Leslie Berland, not mincing words about what she thinks of Elon Musk:
Some things:
How is Musk going to deal with the mass exodus?
This is a real problem with today’s generation. They all believe they are irreplaceable.
What will Elon do? Hopefully, get the chance to fire all these people before the “mass exodus”.
And who is this bitch? How does she know Elon Musk? What has he actually done that makes his ethically questionable?
He needs to fire this bitch.
Here is the chairman of the board of Twitter, who will not have a job soon, commenting on how Twitter needs to continue doing what its doing:
Some things:
This guy is either stupid or lying to his snowflake employees.
The reason Musk bought Twitter is because he thinks he can run it better (which he can).
How do I know this? He tweeted it.
The fact that he doesn’t know this shows how out of touch Twitter management.
Here is Berland, again,
Some things:
This broad is so gone.
Who isn’t going to oversee Elon Musk is any employees from Twitter. He’s the f-ing owner of a company that he’s taking private so the government has less say when it comes to regulation.
Another question: Who was watching Twitter when they started shadow banning people because they didn’t like what they said?
Safety is a BS word.
Here is the current and soon-to-be-out-of-work CEO, Parag Agrawal,
Some things:
First thing about this guy is he is into censorship. He does not believe in free speech. He has said that. He has tweeted that. He’s not from this country. Our priorities are not his priorities.
Again, all this is in the name of safety. That’s because the Left believes words are violence.
What he is also doing here is smart. He’s saying Twitter needs to continue doing what they are doing but in a different way.
I don’t think he knows what that way is but he’s pushing his employees to figure it out in the next six months.
He needs to go. I bet he will be gone.
Here’s Berland again. She obviously really doesn’t want to work for Twitter anymore. Here, she questions Musk’s trustworthiness:
Who is she to determine Musk’s trustworthiness? She is in charge of a lot of shadow banning and censorship in the company. Shouldn’t we be questioning her trustworthiness?
Here is Agrawal not getting that Musk is smarter than him and the board:
Some things:
Musk did not join the board because they knew he would not have a say in Twitter’s operation.
He would never learn what was happening.
And he would never be able to buy more than 14.9% of the company.
Musk is pretty smart. He outsmarted the Twitter board.
Here is Agrawal, again, making a case for Musk to fire him:
Some things:
This is what the Left does. “What is free speech?” It’s what Twitter wants it to be.
This is the problem with these people.
Freedom of speech is really direct. It’s in the Constitution. But these people think they are smarter…no, more just…than the Founding Fathers. So they can ignore the Constitution.
Elon Musk needs to fire everyone and he will.
By the way, there were tears. Of course there were.
I do want to point something out. This was leaked by an employee to Project Veritas. Do you know what that means? There are people at Twitter who don’t agree with executive management.
Joe Biden did a press conference yesterday and it didn’t go well at all. He spoke at a teacher of the year event at the White House (don’t get me started on the teachers of the year crap).
Here he is talking about the kids not belonging to the parents:
Yeah, run on this. Make stronger the new political interest group known as parents.
I watched Gutfeld last night and Todd Piro had a great answer to this statement:
That’s right.
Here is Joe Biden answering a question about the recession we are heading to:
BIDEN: "I'm not concerned about a recession. I mean, you're always concerned about recession." pic.twitter.com/gSkA3O9bL9
He’s not worried about a recession because it’s not going to affect him. He’s going to be fine. He will finish being President, move into one of his mansions and live life well with all the Chinese and Russian money his son has been collecting. We are the ones who are going to get screwed.
I am so tired of him pointing to the unemployment numbers. His administration didn’t create a single job. He just opened the economy and people went back to work. Again, he doesn’t include people who have left the workforce.
Then, Joe Biden’s brain went through a system reboot. These are always fun:
Now, normally I wouldn’t make fun of a man going senile right in front of us but this guy is making life miserable, hates America and ruining the country so screw him. I think it’s funny.
He really does need to resign. He’s getting worse. I’m thinking by the end of the year, he will be drooling during these press conferences.
They’re Making Huxley and Orwell Look Like Nostradamus
The head of the Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Myorkas, spoke in front of Congress yesterday. He was addressing his failure on the border (which he said he was not failing and everything is fine). But I’m not going to talk about this. He made another announcement about creating a department of misinformation in the DHS.
Gee, what a coincidence that they decide to do this right before an election that they are going to get smoked in and after Elon Musk buys Twitter. This is very dystopian, tight out of George Orwell’s 1984.
But, what’s worse, the head of the agency, Nina Jankowicz, is a Left wing hack. The New York Post put out an article basically saying that she notorious for spreading disinformation!
Here’s what they said she did:
She embraced and promoted the bogus Clinton-campaign-created Trump-Russia dossier.
She waged war on The Post’s true and accurate reporting of Hunter Biden’s laptop.
She worked for the far Leftwing Wilson Center.
She frequently writes hit pieces for lefty news outlets.
The NY Post stated:
Look: She’s a career left-wing partisan, from her days working at the National Democratic Institute to her Fulbright-Clinton fellowship to her gig at the left-leaning Wilson Center where she routinely did media hits with NPR, CNN, PBS and so on while placing New York Times and Washington Post opeds. Hiring her for this job just shows how detached from reality and broad American society the entire Biden team has become.
Plus, why does the administration even need another disinformation czar when it already has Jen Psaki?
But it gets worse. Apparently she’s a bit of a ham on social media. Here is her singing a little ditty on, I think, TikTok.
A “fictosexual” man can no longer communicate with his “wife” of four years. Akihiko Kondo, a 38-year-old Japanese man, wed a holographic image of the blue-haired anime character Hatsune Miku in 2018. The character is described as 16 years old, the New York Post reported.
Kondo fell in love with the character in 2008 after he became ostracized from his peers following intense bullying at work. Technology made it possible for the anime fan to interact with her beginning in 2017 thanks to a Gatebox machine. This $1,300 device allows users to interact with characters using holograms. This was also how Kondo was able to “marry” the object of his affection.
Believe it or not, fictosexuals are part of the LGBTQ community.
According to TheFocus, “fictosexual is also an umbrella term that encompasses a list of other identities including more specific attractions such as novel/visual characters (booklosexual) and vampire-related characters (tobousexual).”
They fall under the asexual spectrum because they’re not attracted to people. Unsurprisingly, this group has their own version of the pride flag.
This guy spent $18,000 on a wedding.
Apparently, the company that made the hologram went out of business and no longer support the hologram machine. There ended up being a software glitch and now the guy can’t talk to the hologram anymore.
Jen Psaki addresses the Bishop Evans death and it’s less than satisfactory.
I have another reason why not to send your kids to college.
And everything is racist.
Sociopathic
Let’s go over this:
Specialist Bishop Evans jumps into the Rio Grande River to rescue a person crossing illegally over the border.
Evans goes under the water and that’s the last time he’s seen. A search begins to find the body because the National Guard said he was gone.
The two people he rescued turned out to be drug smugglers from a cartel.
That happened on Friday. There was no statement from the Biden administration. on Friday.
On Saturday, the Biden administration doesn’t say anything. The search for the body continues.
On Sunday, the Biden administration doesn’t say anything. The search for the body continues.
On Monday, the Biden administration doesn’t say anything. The body is found.
On Monday afternoon, with no comment from Joe Biden, Jen Psaki has her daily press conference. She is asked about Bishop Evans and this is what she says:
Oh, that’s your response? Really, Joe can’t express his outrage?
He had no problems “expressing” his outrage when Border Patrol was riding horses and it looked like the horse reigns got close to the illegal aliens as if they might be whipping them. And that’s the best response from this administration?
As of Tuesday, Joe Biden hasn’t said anything about this. Is it because it’s his fault? Well, a reporter asked Jen about that. Here’s her response:
Oh, so it’s Texas’ fault. Last I checked, border security was the job of the federal government. The job of the state government is to protect the state residents. So, if the federal government doesn’t do its job and the state citizens are facing danger from illegal aliens, and the state does something and someone does because the federal government didn’t do anything, its still the state’s fault?
Yeah, run on this. I know Republicans are.
By the way, so are Democrats in Texas, Arizona and Nevada. The same Arizona and Nevada that were purple states and will be red in November.
By the way, Joe Biden still hasn’t addressed this.
Speaking of the Border
Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt announced Monday afternoon:
“In a lawsuit originally filed by Missouri, Louisiana, and Arizona, our Office just obtained a temporary restraining order to keep Title 42 in place. This is a huge victory for border security, but the fight continues on.”
Just a reminder, Title 42 is a Trump era policy that allows the Border Patrol to send captured illegal aliens back over the border due to the China virus. It was set to expire on May 23. DHS has estimated that, if the order ended, up to 18,000 people a day could cross the border. To give an example of the problem that could come about, we are currently being overwhelmed and only see about 6000 a day. The Border Patrol says the max they can deal with is about 1500 a day.
The Biden administration was going to let the policy end with putting any other rules in place, basically opening the borders. The Biden administration says it will respect the ruling.
In other border news, the Supreme Court is hearing arguments for the Migrant Protection Protocols better known as the Remain in Mexico policy. That law was also brought on by Trump to make it that people have to wait in Mexico while their asylum claims are being processed. The Biden cancelled that policy his first day in office but Texas and Missouri sued.
Those opposing the policy say it can create a dangerous situation for the migrants waiting in Mexico, where conditions aren’t always healthy or safe. DHS also says the program puts strain on the United States’ relationship with Mexico.
Those who like the policy say it is a useful deterrence to potential illegal aliens. It did work. Under this policy during the Trump administration, illegal immigration lowered to about 30,000 a month.
I don’t think any of this matters. The Biden administration has neutered the Border Patrol to the point they can’t stop anybody.
Westminster College in Salt Lake City, Utah, is still planning to offer a course studying hardcore pornography following an outpouring of backlash online, a representative from the private college said Thursday.
The May summer term class, “Gender 3000 – Porn,” has the description:
Hard core pornography is as American as apple pie and more popular than Sunday night football. Our approach to this billion-dollar industry is as both a cultural phenomenon that reflects and reinforces sexual inequalities (but holds the potential to challenge sexual and gender norms) and as an art form that requires serious contemplation. We will watch pornographic films together and discuss the sexualization of race, class, and gender as an experimental, radical art form.
Awesome. That will give the nerds something to do during the week besides playing video games and D&D. You know men will be taking this class in the hopes of finding some freakish female students. But you know this is going to be a sausage-fest because no chick would take a class like this.
I don’t have much to say about this except my grandchildren shouldn’t go to college.
“Pot,” “weed,” “grass,” “Mary Jane,” “flower” — there is no shortage of terms to describe cannabis. However, Washington state is taking one word officially off the table: “marijuana.”
Legislators recently passed a law that changes every Revised Code of Washington with the word “marijuana.” The change gets rid of the term, swapping it out for the word “cannabis.”
Supporters say the word “marijuana” has a long history of racism.
According to Washington state Rep. Melanie Morgan:
“The term ‘marijuana’ itself is pejorative and racist. As recreational marijuana use became more popular, it was negatively associated with Mexican immigrants. Even though it seems simple because it’s just one word, the reality is we’re healing the wrongs that were committed against Black and Brown people around cannabis.”
Joy Hollingsworth, who own a couple of pot farms in Washington and sells it legally along with hemp products, testified in front of the Washington lawmakers:
“It had been talked about for a long time in our community about how that word demonizes the cannabis plant. It was … Anslinger that said and I quote, ‘Marijuana is the most violent causing drug in the history of mankind. And most marijuana users are Negroes, Hispanic, Caribbean, and entertainers. Their satanic music, jazz and swing results from marijuana usage.’”
The quote she’s referencing is by Harry Anslinger, who was the first commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics (which later became the Drug Enforcement Administration). He was involved in the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937, which banned selling or possessing weed.
You know, I am glad they are doing this simply because cannabis is a lot easier to spell than marijuana. Even as I was writing this script, I misspelled marijuana. I don’t even call it marijuana, I call it weed so this is no skin off my neck.
The term marijuana comes from Spanish Mexico where they grew the plant for the hemp, not to smoke it. It was also grown in Asia, parts of Europe and the United States for the hemp. It was called marijuana long before people figured out is could be smoked. The term wasn’t coined because it was a drug. So their logic is way off and getting rid of the name because some obscure politician in 1937 said that people of color or colored people (whichever term is politically correct) used it.
Also, by changing the name, aren’t they confirming that people of color are the ones using it? Aren’t they showing their own racism? Here’s the thing, I didn’t marry the term marijuana with black people. I never thought of it because I know a ton of white people that smoke it. It’s the Washington “woke” politicians that pointed it out to me.
Finally, don’t the politicians in Washington state have more important things to do? They have high crime, a homeless problem, a drug problem and their state is still suffering from damages over the 2020 riots. Maybe the politicians in Washington should worry about those problems.
