Gays, You're Not Black

For the rest of you, memorize this, recite it in the shower, write it on your hand: "Unless I'm being discriminated against on the basis of my race, I will stop being a pain in everyone's ass."

Ann Coulter  "For at least a half-century now, every special pleader in America has made the following argument: Yeah, but what if we were black?

"This is supposed to be rhetorical kryptonite, capable of anathematizing "discrimination" against any group: atheists, women, gays, immigrants, illegal immigrants, the disabled, Muslims -- basically anyone except a fully abled, cis-gendered, white male born in this country.

"Oh my gosh! You're right -- we DO have to let girls try out for the Green Bay Packers!

"OK, fine, we'll hire more blind lifeguards.

"Of course, Shadi Abdullah is welcome to be president of our campus Hillel group.

"Naturally, the "What if they were black?" argument came up ad nauseum at the Supreme Court last week during oral arguments over Colorado's "anti-discrimination" law. According to Colorado, making two gay guys who are married to one another feel "unwelcome, objectionable, unacceptable or undesirable" is the equivalent of separate water fountains for black people.

"A web designer had petitioned the court, objecting to the law's requirement that she design a website celebrating a gay marriage, in contravention of her religious beliefs. But if you'd heard only the questions from Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson, you'd think the petitioner was refusing to design websites for black people.

E.g.:  JUSTICE JACKSON: "[C]an I ask you a hypothetical ... [What if] they want to have a sign next to the [shopping mall] Santa that says, 'only white children.' Why isn't your argument that they should be able to do that?" [The hypothetical went on for hours, but that was the gist of it.]

"These were a few of Justice Sotomayor's questions:. . .

The Left’s Anti-Nationalism Is the Ideology of Western Suicide; Biden and Obama have continued progressives’ endless apology tour for America.

It is no accident that Burnham marked the beginning of America’s descent toward suicide in the early 20th century. Anti-nationalism, to paraphrase Burnham, is now the ideology of Western suicide. 

The American Spectator  "If there is one idea that unites the American Left and motivates its public policy positions it is anti-nationalism. Anti-nationalism pervades the Left’s domestic and foreign policy preferences. This is one reason why the Left so vigorously opposed President Trump’s “America First” agenda, but the Left’s antipathy to nationalism precedes Trump and what some call “Trumpism.” In fact, the Left has used Trump in an effort to delegitimize nationalism, and it appears to be working.

"President Barack Obama wore his anti-nationalism on his sleeve. He derided the notion of “American exceptionalism.” He went on an apology tour to the Middle East, professing contrition for America’s past and present sins. Shortly before he left office, Obama warned against the rise of “a crude sort of nationalism” that was taking root in the United States. After his presidency, he repeatedly spoke out against nationalism.

"And the Biden administration in this respect is simply the third Obama administration — the same elites are in charge using the same anti-nationalist rhetoric and pushing the same anti-nationalist policies. But the Left’s attitude toward nationalism long preceded Obama and Biden.

"In 1964, the political philosopher James Burnham diagnosed the ideology of liberalism in Suicide of the West. He described the liberal ideology as “rationalist,” rooted in reason and science as opposed to faith, custom, or intuition. Liberals, he explained, believe therefore in “progress” based on the spread of education and enlightenment. And they believe in progress not just for their nation but for all mankind. A key tenet of liberalism is “equality,” both domestic and global. The American Left frequently criticizes its own country for the disparities in wealth between rich and poor at home and abroad. Burnham noted that Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), an influential liberal organization of the time, included in its platform “support of the principles of the United Nations” but made no reference to America’s national security interests. ADA’s founding charter, Burnham also noted, stated the following: “The establishment of a world government with powers adequate to prevent war must be an objective of the United States foreign policy to be achieved at the earliest possible date.” Though leftists today rarely openly espouse world government, they do favor “global governance,” especially in the areas of climate, human rights, peacekeeping, arms control, and global economic disparities.". . .

8 Times Our Federal Government Ran A Protect-Biden Racket

The Federalist

Apparently, the only thing as strong as the get-Trump attitude of the deep state is the protect-Biden stance of the federal government. 

"For years, our federal government has quietly operated a protect-Biden racket. The public, however, has only recently — and haphazardly — learned of the lengths federal law enforcement officials and government employees have gone to safeguard the Biden family secrets. Here are eight times our government squelched scandals.

2. Quietly Seizing Hunter’s Laptop from Repair Shop. . .

3. Seizing and Returning Hunter’s Second Laptop. . .

Five Antifa members are charged with domestic terrorism: Cops swoop on Atlanta autonomous zone and find explosives - after locals were ambushed and homes set alight

You hear in their juvenile chants not one original thought.

 UK Daily Mail  "Five members of Antifa are in custody on domestic terrorism charges after they were protesting outside of a planned $90 million police training center.

"The site of the planned center has been the focal point of protests for months by Antifa who have referred to the site - which protesters have made an autonomous zone - as Cop City. Many of those who were arrested were holed up in treehouses where police later recovered explosives. 

"Prior to Tuesday's arrests, police detained several people at the site for crimes including destruction of property and arson along with car-jacking and attacks on locals and government officials.

"The official reasoning for the protest, according to a report from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, is environmental concern for the Weelaunee Forest. The center would cut out 381 acres of the woods. 

"Among the photos documenting the protest is an image of a group of ski mask-clad protesters standing over a truck with a banner reading: 'No forest, no peace, truck the police' as well as a smaller sign that read: 'No Cop City.' . . .

Karine Jean-Pierre Blames Trump for Border Crisis, Claims Biden is Securing the Border

The very definition of gaslighting: Biden went to Arizona a few weeks ago and said he had more important things to do than go to the border and see the mess caused by his empty promises during the presidential campaign.

 Posted by Mary Chastain

“The president has done the work to deal with what we are seeing that border since day one.”




"Raise your hand if you saw this coming!

"The fiscal year 2023 is already on the way to breaking records regarding the border.

"Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre even said Trump gutted the immigration system:

JEAN-PIERRE: “ — especially because of what the last administration did, and they completely gutted the system. And we know that this has been a multidecade-long problem. We need to modernize the system, and this is something that the President has put forth and we are looking for Congress to act. We are asking Congress to act.”. . . 

 White House blames Trump and Republicans for the chaos at the border - and assures there is a 'six-point plan' to prepare for up to 14,000 migrants a day when Title 42 ends

Did People Wear 'Biden Please Let Us In' Shirts at US-Mexico Border? | Snopes.com

As images of these "Biden Please Let Us In" shirts circulated on social media, many people asked who was providing the funding for these shirts. As far as we can tell, these shirts were provided by Casa de Luz Tijuana, an organization that provides assistance to people who have migrated. On Feb. 27, the group posted a photograph of these shirts to their Facebook page and wrote that "Biden PLEASE Let us In" was a movement started by Casa de Luz:

Biden has become the unseen ghost at the funeral that is his presidency

Andrea Widburg  "Few people looking at Joe Biden believe that, despite his seat in the Oval Office, he is calling the shots in his presidency. He’s a puppet, willing to preside over the death of a nation to end his corrupt career with a moment at the pinnacle of the American government. That he is nothing but an ineffectual figurehead—not even a minor celebrity—comes through loud and clear in a 15-second video of Biden at a toy store.

"In April, a video emerged showing guests completely ignoring Biden at a White House event. The apparent reason then was that a singularly ungracious Barack Obama was soaking up the spotlight, so much so that he deliberately turned his back on the ostensible President of the United States of America:. . .

. . ."In A Christmas Carol, when the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come shows Scrooge what awaits him—standing invisibly by as people volunteer to attend his funeral only if they get free food, while those who once served him celebrate his passing as an opportunity to enrich themselves—Scrooge has the opportunity to and the gift of making a change to his life. Scrooge willingly expresses remorse and seizes the chance for redemption.

"It’s different for Biden. His is a life filled with opportunism, graft, crime, and moral corruption. He’s already the ghost. He’s incapable of remorse, and there will be no redemption.

"Because he’s such an awful human being, I can’t say that there’s anything sad about seeing him already consigned to the living hell of invisibility. I’m only sad for the nation that had this man foisted upon it to preside over its decline."

The Rapidly Dissipating Art of Thinking

 Call out the government on dozens of issues that have never made sense before and don’t now.  We must make their ability to control false narratives ever more difficult. 


 Allan J. Feifer "What do all of the following have in common?

  • I have a right to practice recreational oblivion (drug use).\I have a right to steal “stuff” from stores and not get prosecuted.
  • I have a right to believe my “facts” are equal to yours, and then I can make you live by mine.
  • I have a “right” to come to America, and then you must support me to become a citizen.
  • I have a right to wealth equal to yours, and if that means taking it from you, that’s okay.
  • I have a right to say whatever I want, but you don’t because you are irredeemably White
  • I have a right not to work if I don’t want to because the government is obligated to support me.

"They’re all modern attitudes that are totally antithetical to a structured and sound thought process!  I could go on endlessly as all or most of the above are valid points for too many greedy people.

The Russians Are Laughing At Us

 

Joey’s Choice

The American Spectator  "President Joe Biden has humiliated himself and his country on the global stage. He let the Russians spring from American confinement a Russian arms dealer known as the “Merchant of Death” who sells weapons to terrorists and our adversaries in exchange for a WNBA player who had been detained in Russia for illegally bringing drugs into the country.

"As I said in my column last week, I congratulate Brittney Griner on her return to freedom. I wish her well. Sitting in a slammer in a Russian penal colony is nothing like sitting in a hotel room in Yekaterinburg smoking hashish (if you like that kind of thing). Brittney is now back home in a country she openly protests when the national anthem is played during her basketball games, to the cooing delight of liberals.

"But as for Biden and his administration, the Kremlin played them like a fiddle, exchanging the vaping, doping, hoops player for the notorious Viktor Bout. The outrage is made worse given that the Biden administration left behind U.S. Marine Paul Whelan, among other Americans held in Russia.

Meathead speaks
"In December 2018, Whelan was arrested by the Russian FSB, the successor organization to the KGB, the organization that groomed Vladimir Putin. The KGB, of course, was masterful in disinformation and manipulation. The FSB knew what to do with Whelan. In June 2020, he was convicted and sentenced to 16 years in prison under charges of “espionage.” From the outset, according to Whelan’s lawyers, the Russkies were intending to use Whelan as part of a prisoner swap to get back their buddy Viktor Bout.

"Whelan’s family was hoping that their son would be part of the Griner-Bout deal, but the Russians aren’t stupid. They knew that Bout could be had for much less. They knew that Joe Biden and his administration badly wanted Griner, who is not only a WNBA star but also a star of “gay rights” and “civil rights” as a black woman “married” to another black woman. LGBTQIA+ activists in the United States couldn’t give a damn about Paul Whelan, who has been in prison much longer than Griner was. You can be sure that they didn’t even know of the Marine’s existence.

"Paul Whelan is not a name, dear liberals, that your kiddies will hear at Drag Queen Story Hour.". . .

How on earth did Sam Brinton get a security clearance?

 


Don’t Blame Sam Brinton, They Did ItThe disgrace falls squarely on the shoulders of the LGBTQ organizations that propped up a person of such questionable character.". . .
. . .“Brinton should never have been given a platform by national LGBTQ organizations without having crucial details of their story confirmed,” Besen writes. “LGBTQ groups were sloppy, ethically negligent and shockingly unprofessional, choosing expedience over prudence in turning Brinton into a national spokesperson. They were warned but didn’t listen.”
"Maybe they did not listen because bad consequences rarely followed pushing politically convenient yarns in the past."
That same political movement gave us both Sam Britain and Britany Griner while the world laughed. TD
