With all the crap happening, we forgot that it was Columbus Day on Monday. Let’s talk about it.
The Israeli crisis is hiding more evidence of Biden corruption.
And did you know black sports stars, the ones who make tens of millions of dollars playing a game, are modern day slaves?
Columbus Day
Dumbass of the Day
More Problems We Are Ignoring
According to the Post Millennial:
A Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by America First Legal has revealed that Joe Biden during his time as Vice President sent or received thousands of emails between his office and businesses and accounts associated with Hunter and Jim Biden.
Biden reportedly sent or received 19,335 emails from Rosemont Seneca, Hunter Biden’s investment firm, 4,243 emails from Hunter Biden himself, 1,751 emails from Jim Biden, and 3,738 emails from Jim Biden’s Lion Hall Group.
Biden and his White House have repeatedly claimed that the then-VP had no connection to his son’s businesses. They have further said that he has no knowledge now about his son’s foreign business dealings, even as Hunter faces scrutiny over potential FARA violations for his lucrative work in China, Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
Everything is Racist!
According to The Blaze:
A former Olympian delivered an eye-opening remark comparing professional sports contracts to slavery during an appearance on ESPN’s new series hosted by “anti-racist” Ibram X. Kendi.
ESPN gave Kendi his own series titled “Skin in the Game,” which “delves into and challenges racism in the sports world, and will reveal how pervasive racism is in sports, while challenging the thoughts and systems of various governing bodies.”
The five-episode series features episodes sub-titled: “How Do Athletes Play a Role in Social Change?,” “Are Black Women Athletes Carrying the Weight of the World?,” “What is the Cost of Race Norming?,” and “What is the Impact of Racist Ideas in Sports Media?”
The first episode aired on Sept. 20, in which Kendi “takes a look at black athletes who use public platforms to protest injustice and what it costs to speak up.”
The episode featured former Olympian Gwendolyn Berry and journalist Howard Bryant.

Someone is Learning
According to the Post Millennial:
The National Hockey League has announced that effective immediately, players will no longer be allowed to wrap their sticks with rainbow-colored tape before hitting the ice on Pride nights, should their team choose to host one at all.
The move comes just months after officials banned Pride jerseys from being worn by those on the ice or behind the bench following backlash from many who said being obligated to do so violated their personal freedoms and sincerely held beliefs.
According to the Associated Press, the league sent out a memo to teams last week explaining that updates had been made regarding participation in themed nights.
Under the new guidelines, players cannot alter their equipment to show support for various causes, be it Pride, military appreciation, or Hockey Fights Cancer. They can, however, do as they please off the ice.
Does It Really Matter?
MSN has an article called I’m a bisexual woman married to a man. People questioning my sexuality caused me to come out queer instead. I thought this was a rather off article and decided to read it.
Let’s go through the article:
- I dated men and women as a young adult and identified as a bisexual.
- People started questioning my bisexuality when I married my husband.
- I decided to come out as queer instead.
I grew up in a home where I was frequently told it was OK to be gay, so I never had a formal coming out. I simply brought my first girlfriend home. Of course, it confused my family who had known me as a boy-crazy teenager. But the surprise quickly faded, and I continued to date men and women as a young adult.
But in 2014, I met my now husband who immediately accepted my bisexuality. I felt so content because I could express my sexuality while being comfortable in my relationship. People outside my relationship, though, criticized me for identifying as bisexual but choosing to settle down with a man.
I play rugby, which intersects with the queer community. Years ago, on the sidelines of a game, my teammates were trying to guess who was queer.
I told them I was bisexual, and I’ll never forget their reactions. “You don’t count,” one said. “Yeah, you picked a side,” said another, referring to my husband.
Coming from queer people, this felt like an irrefutable truth, and it meant I wasn’t part of the LGBTQ+ community. I carried that heavy weight with me for a long time. It also didn’t help when people asked if I still had to tell people I was bisexual because I was married now.
My husband has always been extremely supportive of me expressing my queerness.
But when I decided to marry him, I did not become straight, just as I would not have become a lesbian if I married a woman. As the tired saying goes, it’s not a phase. Bisexuality is not a phase that lasts until you pick a life partner.
But I was tired of trying to define and defend who I was attracted to and why. I remembered an old friend who, when asked about her sexuality, said, “I don’t know. I’m just queer.”
I tried the word queer on and it felt right — more right than bisexual ever did. Under the umbrella of queer, my sexuality could ebb and flow, morph, and grow. “Queer” didn’t need explaining, or an Urban Dictionary lookup, or another flag to replace my perfectly good rainbow one.
As a queer person, I felt like I could just exist.
I understood why most people around me felt I “didn’t count.” In a hetero-passing relationship, I have the privilege of experiencing queer joy, attending pride, and waving my tricolored flag, while also being able to hide my queerness if I was in unsafe environments. I’m not the target of hate speech, I won’t be refused service at an anti-gay business, and my right to marry my husband was never questioned.
So I don’t call out other members of the LGBTQ+ community who say I “don’t count.” I acknowledge there are burdens I will never carry, and I’m thankful to all those who have welcomed me into the community with open arms.
But still: I am queer. I always have been, and I always will be. That doesn’t change if I’m married or single. I will always be me.
