Episode 386 – Dude, They’re Fish

This new January 6th commission is beginning to look like a crock.

More bad news for the Biden administration and the economy.

And, I don’t care what anyone says, sharks suck.

 

Non-Partisan, Huh?

We have this bipartisan January 6th commission coming up started by Nancy Pelosi. Not sure why. There has already been a report released. Well I do know why. Because:

  • January 6th was determined to be a security lapse and Nancy Pelosi.
  • Donald Trump isn’t in the White House and people are beginning to realize he was actually good for the country.
  • Democrats need to demonize anyone who doesn’t agree with them as white supremacist.
  • Leftist policies are killing the country and they are going to get killed in the 2022 elections. This is a last gasp to save Nancy Pelosi’s speakership.

Apparently, this is not going to be as bipartisan as we thought. Well, I never thought this was going to be bipartisan. Pelosi decided to veto the two Republican picks for the committee: Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Jim Banks (R-IND). When asked why she wanted to get rid of those guys, she said:

“Monday evening, the Minority Leader recommended 5 Members to serve on the Select Committee. I have spoken with him this morning about the objections raised about Representatives Jim Banks and Jim Jordan and the impact their appointments may have on the integrity of the investigation. I also informed him that I was prepared to appoint Representatives Rodney Davis, Kelly Armstrong and Troy Nehls, and requested that he recommend two other Members.”

“With respect for the integrity of the investigation, with an insistence on the truth and with concern about statements made and actions taken by these Members, I must reject the recommendations of Representatives Banks and Jordan to the Select Committee.”

That’s not really an answer. What we are hearing from the media is that these two were complicit with the riot. They weren’t. It’s because this is not a bipartisan commission and these two would ask a lot of questions that would embarrass Democrats. Watch, none of the witnesses the Republicans want will be called. Sound familiar?

She had to do this:

  • She is directly to blame for the riot because she did not order extra security even though it was recommended. What about that report?
  • Only one person was killed and it was a Trump supporter (Aslii Babbitt). Who killed her?
  • Who planted the bombs at the RNC and DNC? Was it Antifa or BLM?
  • How many FBI agents were actually there? This might be a bit of a conspiracy theory but it can’t be ignore when combined with the Capitol police letting people into the building.
  • Nobody is getting charged with sedition or treason. Five hundred people are now in jail. Why have these people been in jail for the last 7 months for trespassing?

Bet you a dollar none of these questions are asked.

Nancy said that, now that the committee is bipartisan, by kicking off two Republicans, the committee can proceed.

Jim Banks released the following statement:

“It really made me angry. I served my country in Afghanistan and she is saying that I’m not up to playing a serious role on this Jan. 6 committee.”

“But it just goes to show all along this was never a serious effort on their part, it’s all a political witch hunt. They want to make this all about Donald Trump, dragging Republican members of Congress through the mud and attacking 75 million people that voted for Donald Trump.”

Kevin McCarthy, the House minority leader, said f-it. He pulled all the Republicans from the commission. There is only one Republican left on the commission and I say that with tongue in cheek. She’s, at best, a RINO and, at worst, a Democrat that hates Trump as much as the Left. She’s going to lose her next election in Wyoming anyway.

When asked about the Republicans being kicked off the committee, she said she agreed with what the Speaker did. Of course she did. She hates Trump and, since having her leadership position taken away, she has ceased being a Republican. The beauty of this is she’s going to probably lose all her committee assignments. Good.

That’s Not Good

According from the Department of Labor:

419,000 claims for the week ending on July 17 — an increase in 51,000 from the previous week’s levels that again exceeds economists’ predictions.

I’m going to play conspiracy theorist.

  • I think a lot of people are getting jobs.
  • Most get a signing bonus when they get hired.
  • They realize that waking up early sucks and don’t like it.
  • They realize they are getting paid less than unemployment.
  • They get fired for not doing their job.
  • They go back on unemployment while collecting their signup bonus.

That’s kind of a cynical take but I have become cynical as I’ve gotten older. It also shows that Joe Biden’s policies are destabilizing the economy.

Some Dumb Stories to Round It Out

They’re Coming for Them

The San Francisco Gay Men’s Choir released a video of them singing a song called “We’ll Convert Your Children”. Here it is:

Well, that’s disturbing. It’s also creepy. And it’s kind of catchy.

Of course, I wasn’t the only one that saw this as a rather aggressive move. Conservatives throughout social media and the news media really laid into this group. The San Francisco Gay Men’s Choir said the whole thing was just a parody. A parody for what? I’m not sure. They released the following statement when the controversy reached its peak:

“The far-right conservative media found our ‘Message…’ video and have taken it as their cause. This has all happened in the last 24 hours and it continues to pick up steam.” 

“They have taken the lyrics out of context to support a narrative that suits their intolerant and hateful needs. It is obvious the tongue-in-cheek humor is lost on many.”

“After decades of children being indoctrinated and taught intolerance for anyone who is ‘other,’ from using the Bible as a weapon to reparative therapy, it’s our turn. We have dedicated ourselves to being role models, teaching, and spreading the message of love, tolerance and celebration through our music.”

Just reading that statement makes one understand that this was not parody or tongue-in-cheek humor.

  • Again, what is this song a parody for? If I say, “Great idea! Let’s burn down a city,” that parody because anyone who knows me knows I’m being sarcastic.
  • In their statement, any critic of the song is “far right”.
  • They call all the critics “Intolerant and hateful”. Does that sound like they don’t have a chip on their shoulders?
  • It the last line, they say “it’s our turn” to indoctrinate children to a “message of love, tolerance and celebration through our music.” They actually say they are indoctrinating the kids.
  • Finally, the schools are actually indoctrinating children into the LGBTQ philosophy! Most of TikTok is about pronouns and sexual identity. Where do you think the kids are getting this stuff?

They are trying to indoctrinate our kids. They aren’t hiding the ball. They’re just saying it now.

If It Rips My Leg Off

According to the New York Post:

Marine experts and advocates in Australia are urging the public to refrain from using the word “attack” in reference to sharks, declaring that the majestic predatory fish has been unfairly stigmatized as a deliberate killer.

Instead of calling shark attacks, shark attacks, this group wants them called:

  • Interactions.
  • Negative encounters.
  • Incidents.
  • Or just bites.

Department of Primary Industries in New South Wales (NSW DPI) has decided to follow the guidelines stating:

“NSW DPI is respectful that each incident is best described by the individual involved. DPI generally refers to ‘incidents’ or ‘interactions’ in our formal shark reporting.”

Leonardo Guida, shark researcher at the Australian Marine Conservation Society said that these changes when referring to sharks is important because

“because it helps dispel inherent assumptions that sharks are ravenous, mindless man-eating monsters.”

OK, let me make myself clear and very unwoke here: Sharks are ravenous, mindless man-eating monsters. Why do I say that? They eat cans, license plates, boots, coats, golf balls, tires, video cameras and all sorts of strange things. That makes them pretty mindless and ravenous.

Sharks also eat people. That makes them man-eating.

I’ll stick with shark attacks, thank you very much.

More from TikTok

So, here we go with another gender definition. There are so many. In this one, a young chick named Mikaela Happas, is dancing around and defining what a demi-sexual is. Listen:

So, a demi-sexual is a person that will only have sex with a person she has a romantic connection with. Is that what I’m hearing?

Now, I may be really off here but this women seems to be defining what a woman is.
