Democrats! Gotta love 'em.

What happens to a culture dominated by Democrats?

[California Democrat Eric] Swalwell's Response to Laguna Woods Shooting Shows Just How Over the Edge Dems Have Gone – RedState  . .  .“Sorry @housegop that the parishioners hog-tied your boy. #SorryNotSorry,” Swalwell said.

"Imagine — this is a member of Congress. What is wrong with him? Dr. Cheng heroically gave his life to help others and five others were wounded, and to Swalwell, it’s just an opportunity to try to use against Republicans, even if there isn’t any sense or logic to such claims. Add that to the attack on Tucker Carlson and the GOP that the left launched over the Buffalo shooting and that’s how far gone they are at this point. They will use anything and anyone to attack their opponents.

"Did Swalwell also just refer to an adult Asian man as a “boy”?

?People let him have it for how he was treating the tragedy. They also let him know that they haven’t forgotten his relationship with Fang Fang.". . .

Transgender Infusion Takes Over School Systems: Enter the Pronoun Pin | The Kevin Jackson Network (theblacksphere.net)


The new push is “pronoun pins,” the latest stop on the road to inclusivity. Available to all OES employees, students, and their families, there are three pin messages: He-Him, She-Her, and They-Them—and they come in a handful of different colors. “OES teachers want students to know that their classrooms are spaces where students have voice and agency,” says Appel. “A teacher wearing a button declaring their own pronouns creates an inclusive classroom for kids who are working on their identity.

How Joe Biden Came Up with 'Ultra MAGA' Is Hilarious and Sort of Tragic

Still, Biden doesn't believe the polls. He's said that, which partially explains this endeavor. Also, of course, the most left-wing think tank, the Center for American Progress, would have such an analysis about the MAGA voters.  

 How Joe Biden Came Up with 'Ultra MAGA' Is Hilarious and Sort of Tragic (townhall.com)  "If this is true, and it probably is, then it perfectly fits with a particular characteristic of this Biden White House. They're awful at crisis management. They're awful at prioritization. The Afghanistan withdrawal fell apart. Americans were trapped. Joe Biden then delivered a speech about…COVID vaccinations. It's as if he feels that since he's president, these crises will just resolve with time. Only someone who isn't mentally capable has that thought process. You can't just wish things away. 

"Leadership is more than delivering a speech, Joe. You're not a good president. We all know that—but holy hell, we weren't expecting you to be this incompetent. Everyone around you sucks. And not by a little bit—by A LOT. Your vice president has a case of the giggles every time she's in front of the camera, spews word salads, and has a work environment so toxic that all her staffers are running for cover. Your cabinet secretaries don't do anything either. No one wants to tackle the energy crisis because that would mean increasing domestic oil and gas production, which will upset the progressive left of the base. You don't know what to do about inflation. You thought it was transitory. Remember that? So, you kicked your feet up and hoped time would solve the issue. 

"Meanwhile, scores of America's working families have seen their paychecks get smaller and smaller. And if you allocated the time and resources that you devoted to coming up with the term "ultra MAGA," maybe we could be closer to solving this mess. Instead, all you did was basically give the GOP a badass name for the base. Oh, and the journey for Biden in coming up with this moniker is hilariously tragic…sort of. Maybe you could be second-hand embarrassed by it. I would be since it took…six months of research. I'm not kidding. Also, the White House tried to say that Biden came up with this term on the fly during Psaki's May 10 press briefing, which is not true. Even without the resources allocated for this project, Biden is too slow to come up with this (via WaPo): ". . .

. . ."President Joe Biden's use of the term "ultra-MAGA" reportedly followed six months of research into the best ways to target Republicans.

"And it only took days for Republicans to put it T-shirts for fundraising sales.

"The House Republicans' campaign arm is offering "ultra-MAGA" shirts with former President Donald Trump's likeness and a US flag. MAGA, which stands for "Make America Great Again," was Trump's 2016 campaign slogan

" 'House GOP's giving away 1,000 'ULTRA MAGA' shirts! Offer ends at Midnight or when we run out," the offer says.". . .



The Buffalo Shooter’s Ideas and Beliefs in One Easy Thread Helps Paint a Larger Picture –

 Attention, ladies of The View:

But before we come to the conclusion that this kid was just an extremist conservative as the media would have you believe, we can see the shooter made it very clear that he’s actually more of a socialist and “wants no part” of conservatism. In fact, his views evolved from communism and he said he’d define himself as a leftist populist.

RedState  "Two things inevitably follow a mass shooting. For one, the shooter becomes a celebrity. I don’t like it any more than you do but there’s something about evil that great that draws people into wanting to know more. Why did they do it? What drove them there? What kind of lends did they see the world through? All of these questions course through the minds of anyone who hears about killers.". . .

. . ."Grabien founder Tom Elliott decided to take a moment and post a very easy thread that shows the Buffalo killer’s thought process about everything from how we wanted to execute the shooting to what his beliefs are and where he got them from.". . .

 Joe Cunningham Dishes Up Reality to CNN's S.E. Cupp on Buffalo Shooting and Leftist Rhetoric – RedState  "As I noted on Saturday, the talking points immediately went out among the left to blame the Buffalo mass shooting on Tucker Carlson and people on the right.

"CNN’s S.E. Cupp continued that on Sunday with a bad take on the shooting.". . .

. . ."But where has Cupp been when dealing with inflammatory rhetoric from the left? Or other attacks that might not fit her narrative? Our own Joe Cunningham pointed out that she’s predictably silent.

. . ."How about when it came to a Bernie bro targeting the GOP baseball practice? Crickets.". . .

. . ."Floyd Corkins attacking the Family Research Council? Nothing.

. . ."How about something very recent and pertinent to the leftist pushing pro-abortion rage — the firebombing of a pro-life group? I checked various search options for anything related to that and found nothing from Cupp, who claims to be pro-life. I scrolled through her timeline and didn’t see any posts about the left trying to intimidate SCOTUS into doing their will in regard to Roe. Indeed, the only post I found that even referenced the protests was a post she retweeted that claimed that reports about Justice Alito having to leave his home were wrong."

Meanwhile in California:

"A church in Southern California was the target of a mass shooting Sunday afternoon with initial reports of four wounded, one person killed and a suspect in custody. According to photos of emergency response vehicles at the scene and a block location given by police, the shooting appears to have taken place at the Geneva Presbyterian Church in Laguna Woods.

"UPDATES At END. Shooting took place during a meeting by the Irvine Taiwanese Presbyterian Church that shares space with the Geneva church. Suspect is reported to be a “68-year-old Asian man.”

"Open the Books is a nonprofit government watchdog organization dedicated to investigating and disclosing the many ways in which government spends — and wastes — our money.

"It has a new report out that should raise eyebrows. According to information garnered from Freedom of Information Act Requests, between 2009-2014, both Anthony Fauci and former NIH director Francis Collins received royalty payments from pharmaceutical companies. This may present a conflict of interest since they had a great deal of influence in deciding what research the government funds. From the report:". . .

The WSCA brings real women back to swimming!

Thanks to the enthusiastic embrace of transgenderism, our society is now wandering in a dark cave where reality is rejected and people are encouraged to believe they can be anything they want to be by simply saying what they wish to be. There was a time when it was recognized that a rejection of reality was a sign of insanity but no more. 

 American Thinker  "On May 13, 2022, the World Swimming Coaches Association (WSCA) made history by proclaiming that men calling themselves women should not compete against biological women. Their official position is that women cannot compete fairly against men and that’s that. The WSCA goes on to promote the idea that trans athletes should have their own category, and they insist that they want respect for all athletes.

"That is as it should be. No one should be made to feel unwanted or that they cannot compete in a sport which they love. The Special Olympics, Invictus Games, and Paralympics are all events based on biological factors. Creating a Trans Olympics would give a fair chance of participation to any athlete who does not wish to compete against his or her own sex.". . .

. . ."Men calling themselves women have been stealing the thunder of real women, children who have not even entered adolescence have been pressured into believing they are the opposite sex, and men calling themselves women have received awards that were intended for real women. The official position of the WSCA gives me hope that we are starting to emerge from the darkness back into a world where men are men and girls are girls."

“Sexual harassment, that’s rape, that’s incest, that’s inappropriate touching. What did my son do? He’s a little boy. He told me that he was being charged with sexual harassment for not using the right pronouns.”

Woke Companies to Avoid -

 


The Blue State Conservative  "I’ve recently become a proponent of boycotting companies that act against American interests, as you probably know if you’ve read my boycott Big Tech or boycott leftist companies articles. I expressed a similar viewpoint in my article on what companies donated to BLM.". . .

 . . ."Twitter is, I think, the worst offender on this list of woke companies to avoid. It has been censoring conservatives for years now. First, there were shadowbans. Then there were messages about the “context” and veracity of certain posts. And now we’re in the end-stage: Twitter booting patriots like Trump and Mike Flynn off of its platform for daring to express a conservative worldview.

"At the same time, Twitter protects anti-Americans. It allows the Iranian government to spew anti-Semitic hatred, leftists to call for Trump’s death and attacks on Trump supporters, and BLM to organize violent riots on its platform. Twitter isn’t interested in shielding its users from “online harm,” whatever that is, but instead is just cracking down on conservatism.". . .


"Several of the largest, most well known corporations in America also happen to be some of the most left-leaning. Indeed, in today’s hyper-partisan political era, intensified and arguably defined by the election and administration of President Donald Trump, left-wingers in positions of corporate power have used their leverage and political leanings to effectively add a whole new term to America’s political lingo - Woke Capitalism.". . .

Eurovision win in hand, Ukraine band releases new war video

  AP News


TURIN, Italy (AP) — Ukrainian band Kalush Orchestra, fresh off its Eurovision victory, released a new music video Sunday of its winning hit “Stefania” that features scenes of war-ravaged Ukraine and women in combat gear, as the annual song contest took on ever more political tones given Russia’s war.

“This is how we see Ukrainian mothers today,” Kalush frontman Oleh Psiuk said of the video, which had already racked up millions of views within hours of its release. “We were trying to deliver the message of what Ukraine looks like today.”

"The video was released hours after Kalush Orchestra brought Ukraine its third Eurovision win, pulling ahead of Britain in the grand finale thanks to a surge of popular votes from some of the estimated 200 million viewers from 40 participating countries. The win buoyed Ukrainian spirits and represented a strong affirmation of Ukrainian culture, which Psiuk said was “under attack” by Russia’s invasion.

"Band members posed for photos and signed autographs outside their three-star Turin hotel Sunday, packing their own luggage into taxis en route to an interview with Italian host broadcaster RAI before heading home. They must return to Ukraine on Monday after being given special permission to leave the country to attend the competition; most Ukrainian men between age 18 and 60 are barred from leaving in case they are needed to fight."
