Dan Crenshaw scorches a heckler at a TPUSA event. There’s some scratching being done at the Coachella Music Festival. Drug dealing is for the birds in Brazil. And new San Francisco 49er, Dre Greenlaw, reeks of toxic masculinity and there is a woman out there that’s thrilled about it. Let’s have some fun with the news today!
Crenshaw Rocks
Dan Crenshaw, a Republican congressman from Texas, has had quite a life. He was a Navy Seal for 10 years, served in Afghanistan where he lost his eye to an improvised explosive device and was heavily decorated. On a whim, he decided to run for congress and won. You can imagine, after the experiences he has had in his life, he doesn’t take a lot of guff. Especially from some privileged, snot-nosed college brat. Well, at a Turning Point USA conference, he proved just that:
Crenshaw has always been really laid back when it comes to getting razzed by people. He just takes it in stride and doesn’t let anything bother him. Probably has something to do with the hard work becoming a Navy SEAL, experiencing the terror of war and losing his eye, and almost his life, while serving. Little things like getting called a Nazi by a college kid probably ain’t going to phase this guy much.
This isn’t the first time he had to put up with garbage and he handled it like a true gentleman. When SNL’s Pete Davidson dismissed his war injury as, “getting blown up or something,” the outrage against Davidson was brutal. Crenshaw took it in stride. Annoyed that his service and the service of all his comrades was dismissed but it didn’t matter much. When SNL invited Crenshaw to join Davidson for a skit so Davidson could apologize, he graciously accepted. Not only was the skit funny (funniest that SNL has had in a long time) the apology and Crenshaw’s speech at the end was touching. Watch:
This is a good guy. He’s what people should be like. This is the man who should get the attention instead of garbage like Ilhan Omar or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. He doesn’t take life too seriously. Heck, this is a guy who showed off his Capt. America glass eye.
But he knows what’s important. And he thinks he can make a difference. Don’t be too surprised if he ends up being a Presidential candidate in the near future.
Ew!
This story really got me curious because I live in San Diego and love music. The Coachella Music Festival always sounded like a good time. But, every time I mentioned it to someone, I got the same answer. Don’t do, it’s very sketchy. Well, this story pretty much proves that point.
Apparently, there’s an app that you can download called HerpAlert. This app will allow the user to report the disease. Once reported, the app will assign you to a doctor to get checked for a low price. The app with then log the recorded case and keep statistics. Apparently, the area with the Coachella Music Festival has seen a little bump in cases reported: 250 reported cases per day! At most, an area may have 12 cases reported per day. Before this, the most cases were reported in Los Angeles the day after the Oscars (there’s a shock). That was only 60 a day.
Apparently, they must play a lot of Al Green at the Coachella Music Festival.
This Ain’t No Stool Pigeon
In Brazil, police went to raid the house of suspected drug dealers. But their pet bird started screaming, “Mama, police” alerting the dealers. It did little good, the police caught a man and a teenage girl. They also recovered several bags of crack cocaine. The bird can be seen below at the police station.
There are some who doubt the story though. Apparently the bird has been silent since being picked up. A veterinarian also said that the police have walked by the house many times and the bird said nothing. The bird will be sent to the local zoo and be trained to fly
This may be a shock but it is not the first time animal-alert systems have been used. In Columbia, a parrot was taken in for screaming, “Run, run” when the police approached another home suspected in drug dealing.
What It Is to Be a Man- And It Ain’t Toxic
This is a great story. Dre Greenlaw was picked 148th overall by the San Francisco 49ers. He played for the Arkansas Razorbacks and had a pretty decent career playing linebacker.
But that’s not the story.
Greenlaw was at a party where alcohol was being served. He was under age at the time and probably shouldn’t have been there, but there are a couple of people who are glad he was. A girl was drinking and a stranger spiked her drink. She became incapacitated. As the stranger was leading her out of the house, Greenlaw blocked his way and told the man, “She’s not going anywhere.”
The appreciative father posted this on Twitter after Greenlaw was drafted:
This is an awesome story and shows what true masculinity is. You can bet I will be following this kids career and rooting for him.
