Kenosha County goes red after destructive BLM riots, elects Republican for first time in decades

 BPR   "In a possible precursor of an upcoming red wave, Republican state representative Samantha Kerkman won the election on Tuesday for the office of Kenosha County, Wisconsin, executive.

"A Democrat has held the position in the swing county for at least 25 years.

"Jim Kreuser, the current executive, served in the position since 2008, but announced last May that he was retiring.

"The self-described conservative defeated Democrat court official Rebecca Matoska-Mentink by a margin of approximately 51 percent to 48 percent of the vote for the job that has a four-year term in what is described as a non-partisan contest. The party affiliations of the candidates weren’t, however, a secret.

"Kerkman, 47, thus becomes the first female executive for the county, which is located about 6o miles from Chicago and 40 miles from Milwaukee, and only the fifth person to hold that position.

" 'I think it was the experience that I bring from [the legislature in] Madison,” the taxpayer-friendly, business-friendly Kerkman told the Kenosha News. “I have been working with the county executive for years on issues that impact the county.' ”



Make a joke about transgenders? Big Tech says No Way!

 Make a joke about transgenders? Big Tech says No Way! (commdiginews.com)

Transgender people are a seriously protected class of people that are not funny.

"WASHINGTON: I am almost at the end of a 30-day timeout with Facebook for sharing the above meme, which I didn’t even make. The meme referenced International Women’s Day on March 8th. It is just as funny to me now as it was 30 days ago. So obviously, Facebook has taught me nothing.

"I still believe there are two God-assigned male and female genders at conception. And that these classifications should be respected as methods of classification for competitive sports throughout all events FOREVER by everybody.

"However, they have confirmed that Facebook, as part of Big Tech, is guilty of arbitrary and capricious censorship.". . .

This got Babylon Bee placed in Twitter Jail:  Rachel Levine Is 100% Woman And We Are Sorry For Calling Her A Man | The Babylon Bee


"We, The Babylon Bee, have decided to issue an apology. After being caught in a culture-war whirlwind of hatred and bigotry, we published an article naming Rachel Levine our "Man of the Year." Sometimes, even satirists make mistakes.". . .

. . .So we invite our readers to say it with us, loudly and proudly, and with all the strength and goodness of 1000 kindergarten teachers in Florida trying to teach 5-year-olds about sex:

"Rachel Levine is a powerful, beautiful woman.

"Whatever that is."

Reports of sexual violence involving Russian soldiers are multiplying, Ukrainian officials say.

 NY Times "The crime first came to light last week, when Ukraine’s prosecutor general, Iryna Venediktova, said in a Facebook post that a Russian soldier had killed an unarmed civilian and then repeatedly raped his wife. Days later, the White House said it was concerned about emerging reports of sexual violence in Ukraine.

"Then on Monday night, The Times of London published the woman’s chilling account. Using the pseudonym Natalya, she told a reporter she had been in her home in a village near the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, when she heard footsteps and a shot rang out. Moments later her husband lay dead outside her front door, and two Russian soldiers were at her side, one holding a gun to her head.

" 'I shot your husband because he was a Nazi,” the gunman told her, before he and the other soldier raped her, as her 4-year-old son sobbed in a boiler room next door, according to The Times. She said she was later raped a second time by the soldiers, and eventually managed to flee to western Ukraine with her son.". . .

Kiev's grip on eastern Ukraine weakens as pro-Russians seize army vehicles | Ukraine | The Guardian  "For Kiev's beleaguered army it was meant to be a display of strength. Early on Wednesday a column of six armoured personnel carriers trundled through the town of Kramatorsk, in eastern Ukraine. Some 24 hours earlier Ukrainian soldiers had recaptured a small disused aerodrome. Their next target appeared to be Slavyansk, the neighbouring town, occupied by a shadowy Russian militia. Was victory close?

"The column didn't get far. At Kramatorsk's railway junction, next to an open-air market and a shop selling building materials, an angry crowd caught up with it. Next armed separatists dressed in military fatigues turned up too. Within minutes the Ukrainian soldiers gave up. Without a shot being fired they abandoned their vehicles. The pro-Russian gunmen grabbed them. They raised a Russian tricolour. They sat on top and went for a victory spin.

"In theory this was happening in Ukraine, under the control of a pro-western government in Kiev, and several hundred kilometres from the Russian border. In reality large chunks of the east of the country are now in open revolt. Ukraine is rapidly vanishing as a sovereign state. Its army is falling apart. What happens next is unclear. But the Kremlin can either annexe the east, as it did Crimea, again shrugging off western outrage. Or it can pull the strings of a new post-Kiev puppet entity.

"The militia who captured the armoured vehicles on Wednesday looked like professionals. They had Kalashnikovs, flak jackets, ammunition. One even carried a tube-shaped green grenade-launcher. Some hid their faces under black balaclavas. Others waved and smiled. All wore an orange and black ribbon – originally a symbol of the Soviet victory over fascism, and now the colours of the east's snowballing anti-Kiev movement. There was a flag of Donbass, the Russian-speaking eastern region with its main city of Donetsk.". . .

The armed men, meanwhile, made little secret of the fact they took orders from Moscow. Many of them appeared to be Russian troops from Crimea. Asked where he had come from, one told the Guardian: "Simferopol." How were things in Crimea? "Zamechatelna," he said in Russian – splendid. He added: "The old ladies are happy. Because of Russia their pensions have doubled." Had he served in the Ukrainian army and perhaps swapped sides? "No, I'm Russian," he replied.

Mitt Romney is insane to vote to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson

 What is it about people like Biden, Pelosi, Hillary and Bill Clinton, McCain, John Kerry, Al Gore, McConnell, Feinstein, etc., all of whom have been willing to and continue to sell out their nation for more power and more money? 


 American Thinker has been a treasure trove lately: Mitt Romney is insane to vote to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson - Patricia McCarthy    "Mitt Romney is thoroughly damaged by Trump derangement.  This has been evident for a long time over the last four years, but his vote to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson is a bridge too far.

"For a man of the Mormon faith to accept a judge who is perennially partial to purveyors of child pornography is incomprehensible.  How does a man with five sons and twenty-four grandchildren suffer from the same blind spot as Judge Jackson?  Only his hatred of all things Trumpian, like common sense, can explain such an appalling breach of American values, let alone Mormon values.

"He is a carpetbagger, but he represents the state in which Elizabeth Smart was kidnapped and held hostage for nine months!  One would think he would be crucially sensitive to the sexual abuse of young children.  But apparently not.  He, like the ever-on-the-fence Susan Collins and eternal RINO Lisa Murkowski, has voted to confirm Judge Jackson.

"Bottom line?  These three traitors to their constituents need to be voted out of office.  They've revealed themselves to be members of the left, the globalist elite who are dedicated to the wholesale destruction of America as founded.  Romney and Murkowski seem to revel in their betrayal.  As for Susan Collins?  Inexplicable but for the fact that she has no children of her own.  But who among us cannot imagine the horror of child sex trafficking? 

"Romney's duplicity can be explained only by his vitriolic animosity for President Trump, who won the presidency in 2016, whereas Romney lost to Obama in 2012.  Mitt believes himself to be far, far superior to the equally wealthy but more savvy Trump.  He does not seem to realize that this country was better off throughout Trump's four years than under Clinton, Bush, Obama, and the wretched Biden.". . .


Mitt Romney as Pierre Delecto, Twitter alter-ego, de facto spine (Cartoon) (commdiginews.com) 

"WASHINGTON: Mitt Romney, being in a perpetual search for a spine, has finally discovered Twitter, and gee, you don’t even have to use your real name.  Armed with newfound, Twitter-inspired boldness, Romney is feeling like his courageous old self… from way back in high school … when he gave someone an unwelcomed haircut. (Mitt Romney, Bully – The New Yorker May 2012)". . .

A concerned mother who questioned NY Mayor Adams on toddler mask mandate fired from city job

Rajan Laad    . . .This draconian move discourages dialogue between the government and a citizen. Governments usually prefer monologues and mandates. They expect the citizen to obediently follow. The goal behind Jampel's firing is to deter others from speaking the truth to power. 

"We revisit the principles of Democracy which is defined by Lincoln as ‘of the people, by the people and for the people.'

"Since all citizens cannot govern simultaneously, they elect a representative to govern on their behalf to whom they lend their power. 

"The representatives do not own power, they merely have access to power on atemporary basis. Citizens who own the power have every right to hold their representatives accountable. 

"The representative (mayor, governor, congressman, senator, sresident, etc) reports to the citizen, hence they are referred to as public servants.

"Since all citizens cannot be everywhere questioning the representatives, the press is assigned the task of holding the powerful accountable. If the press fails, the citizen can demand answers.  It is not incumbent on the citizen to be humble, polite, or servile; the representatives must answer questions either directly or via their spokespersons.

"Jampel’s firing is a reminder of how Democrats function when they have absolute power. Questioning is not only discouraged but punished.

"It has to be remembered that these very Democrats celebrated treasonous saboteurs and leakers attempting to undermine democratically-elected President Trump. The saboteurs were glorified and referred to as patriots, heroes, and whistleblowers who were speaking truth to power. They were even afforded anonymity and protection for their ‘bravery’

"Yet a mother was fired for expressing valid concerns about the wellbeing of her toddler. 

"This incident is another reason to vote against the tyrants who refer to themselves as Democrats."

Elon Musk Throws Down the Gauntlet on Twitter

 "Clearly, he’s not happy with the company’s pattern of censorship, of manipulation, of serving the leftist ideology. " Tim O'Brien

Elon Musk Throws Down the Gauntlet on Twitter - American Thinker   . . ."But the Left controls Big Tech, and responded by orchestrating the deplatforming of Trump. 

"On the Friday after the January 6, 2021 riots at the U.S. Capitol, Twitter saw an opportunity and seized on it. It suspended the sitting President of the United States from its platform. Over the course of that weekend other Big Tech firms essentially destroyed upstart Twitter competitor Parler and sought to make Trump a nonentity across several other channels, including e-commerce, email, and other platforms. On the final day of his presidential term, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and others had suspended or effectively banned Trump from the Internet. 

"As this was happening, hundreds of conservative Twitter users saw massive numbers of followers disappear before their eyes.  One by one, many of those users would face suspensions and bans of their own. ". . .

. . ." Now, Twitter has a new boss, not the same as the old boss. Let the fun begin."
