The Culture The Media Is Creating Really Sucks. Case in point, Joy Reid

Derek Hunter

"The only reason I can figure as to why the left needs to elevate and normalize deviant behavior – and that’s what it is, whether you’re into it or not (go look up the word; I didn’t create it) – is to normalize it." . . .

"Anyone who has ever dated (sorry liberals, ask someone normal what it’s like to have a date) knows about mixed signals – “Does she like me or doesn’t she?” It’s part of the human dance for which there is no guide or good advice because you’ll never know at all until you know it all. But that’s just dating, part of growing up. What you grow up in is a big part of that experience, and what people are growing up in right now is pretty much a toilet, in no small part, thanks to the media. It’s time to flush it.

"I’m no prude, so I don’t mean to come off sounding like one, but as an avid media consumer for work, I can’t help but notice just how horrible the media is. And while you can avoid media consumption, you can’t avoid its ramifications. Let me explain.

"Whenever I tweet or write something about a movie, a TV show, or anything related to popular culture, I inevitably get messages from people proudly declaring they “don’t have cable” or “haven’t been to the movies in 30 years” because all those companies are horrible, which they are. However, someone’s ignorance of pop culture does not exempt them from its implications. You’re impacted by it, whether you like it or not. If some kid pees in a big pool you’re in, you’re going to swim through some pee, no matter how far away from that kid you were when they peed. You can say you’ll just get out of the pool, but we’re all fish…

. . ."Then there’s this one with the headline, “The shocking truths I learned about men when, as a 41-year-old mother, I tried to open an ‘ethical’ brothel that was safe for women.” Again, on what planet is whatever this person learned “news”? " .

 Why on earth does MSNBC keep Joy Reid? Why does MSNBC continue to exist?

"Joy Reid is very possibly the most racist, bigoted, angry, and hostile person ever to have a voice on cable TV, with the possible exception of Lawrence O’Donnell and Keith Olbermann.  No one watches either of them or cares an iota about their rantings unless they are equally insane.  Joy Reid is the queen of the most vitriolic hate and rage against all white people. "

. . ."MSNBC has for years and years been the advance team for the hate-American crowd.  Their demise, if on the horizon, will be a welcome reprieve for all the patriots who love America and want their country back."   Video:‘Extraordinary’: Joy Reid under fire for ‘unhinged’ Thanksgiving rant


Republicans Face Narrowest House Majority in 90 Years, Thanks to California’s Ballot Harvesting, Etc.— If GOP Loses Just One Vote, Their Bill Will Die

 The Gateway Pundit   "Now that counting has finally been completed in lawless California, where elections no longer take place, a mad dash of ballot harvesting and illegal voters determines elections in the Golden State today.

"Republicans lost their final seat when Derek Tran ousted Michelle Steel after three weeks of counting and collecting suspect ballots in Orange County. Tran was declared the winner the day before Thanksgiving.

The Republicans will hold their smallest lead when Congress convenes in January.
Leftist CNN’s Harry Enten, a senior data analyst, sounded the alarm on the historically slim GOP majority, pointing out that if current projections hold, the Republican advantage could be the smallest in nearly a century.
"As it stands, Republicans are projected to hold just 220 seats compared to the Democrats’ 215. This razor-thin margin leaves little room for error, particularly as President Trump has announced nominations for three key Republican members—Elise Stefanik, Matt Gaetz, and Mike Waltz—to join his administration." . . .
So the bottom line is, look, the results from the November elections weren’t exactly good for Democrats, but this is a shining light for them. They really did hold the Republican majority down. And given the likely resignations that are coming, that House of Representatives for the Republicans—that House majority—is going to be record small.

Megyn Kelly Obliterates Pete Hegseth Accuser from ALL Legal Angles – Here’s Why Charges were Never Filed and What Really Happened in Monterey

The Gateway Pundit

Video here

"The fake news has been all over Pete Hegseth this week regarding a sexual assault allegation from 2017 that was previously investigated and dropped by the Monterey Police Department.

"There was a reason charges were never filed. And the legacy media knows this.  They are pushing this slanderous attack against Pete Hegseth anyway because they really, really care about powerful men abusing innocent women and children… except, of course, if those powerful men include serial abusers like Bill Clinton or gropers like Joe Biden.

"The media rushed to humiliate and slander President Trump’s nominee for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, this week with leaks about a years-old sexual assault allegation that was already investigated by police.

"In 2017, Monterey, California, police investigated an allegation made by a married woman [Jane Doe] who claimed Pete Hegseth sexually assaulted her at a political event, but they found no evidence to support her claims. Hegseth claimed the encounter was consensual.

"Video footage appears to show a consensual encounter. Video footage also appears to show that it was Hegseth and not the accuser who was slightly intoxicated while the accuser did not appear impaired at all from video footage." . . .

Fani Willis’s Case Against Trump Is Nearly Unpardonable — Raising Possibility of a State Prosecution of a Sitting President

The New York Sun  
"The Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel reckons that there is a “categorical” prohibition on prosecuting a sitting president. Ms. Willis is under no such restriction, largely because the vulnerability of a sitting president to state prosecution has never arisen — until now." . . . 


"When President-elect Trump takes the oath of office on January 20, the Constitution ordains that he “shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States.” 
"That has been taken to cover federal crimes, but not state ones — like the ones brought by the district attorney of Fulton County, Fani Willis. She charged Trump and 18 others with racketeering and other crimes against the Peach State in connection to efforts to reverse the result of the 2020 presidential election.
"The prosecutions of Ms. Willis and of the district attorney of Manhattan, Alvin Bragg, have, alongside Trump’s victory in November, opened up hitherto unexplored constitutional terrain: Can a president be prosecuted for state crimes while in office? The answer to that question could determine the fate of Ms. Willis and Mr. Bragg’s cases — and the scope of the protections of the presidency. "
"Pardons for state crimes usually reside within the purview of the highest executive authority in the state — the governor. Georgia is led by Governor Kemp, a prominent Republican who has had a fraught — to put it mildly — relationship with the 45th president, now the 47th president-elect."Mr. Kemp opposed President Trump’s efforts in 2020 to overturn President Biden’s win in Georgia, and the president-elect backed his opponent two years later. He also called Mr. Kemp a “disloyal guy” and a “very average governor. … Little Brian, little Brian Kemp, bad guy.” The two let bygones be bygones this year, when Mr. Kemp endorsed Trump — and Georgia swung Republican."Even if Mr. Kemp was moved to pardon Trump with respect to Ms. Willis’s prosecution, Georgia law ties his hands. The state is one of only six where pardons are granted by an independent board — the Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles. Unlike the presidential pardon power, where a conviction is not necessary, Georgia requires not only a “guilty” verdict or plea but also a five-year waiting period before a pardon can be issued." . . .

Don't stretch the meaning of 'genocide' | Natasha Hausdorff

 Infidel Bloggers

Natasha Hausdorff - Wikipedia

. . ."On 2 October 2023 Hausdorff opined that because Israel's opponents had noted that warfare and terror attacks had not achieved their goal of eliminating Israel, they had taken a different approach to attack Israel.[21] She called this approach "lawfare," meaning the abuse of the law for political means.[21] She is of the opinion that many of the cases brought against Israel before international bodies such as the International Criminal Court (ICC), the International Court of Justice (ICJ), and the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) are based on falsehoods and the manipulation of international law.[21] She said that even if such a case is not successful, those bringing it benefit in public relations , as they generate negative media attention about Israel.[21] She believes as well that lawfare creates "pseudo international law that operates on a double standard concerning the Jewish state."[21]"


. . .Blood libels

[edit]

"On 27 October 2023 Hausdorff said that the underlying cause of the shift in world opinion against Israel as the war against Hamas carried on was that people attributed an evil intent to Israel, irrespective of any evidence against it, which was reminiscent of "some of the worst attributes of the antisemitic blood libels of old. They are here in an updated form."[22]" . . .

The Dems’ Thanksgiving Story Deserves To Be Known

 


Ann Coulter  . . ."It’s also becoming more evident that leftists are complete frauds, as in the Hitler was a socialist podcast that discussed the fact that collectivism has always been a top-down imposition from the far-left ruling class upon the people, whether they want it or not. Usually not. Because most people with a fair amount of common sense know that the ridiculous concepts of collectivism can never work.  Thus, the left’s incessant reliance on lies and deception, keeping those at bay keeps the leftist away.

The left is falling apart because it's tied to a failed ideology — collectivism — in its many forms and variations.  It’s also based on many big lies — in this case, that the Democrats are the “party of the people” and that they are the agents of change — a dead end if there ever were one.

MAGA Scares-a the Crapola Outa the Mullahs: Iran Caves, Calls Off Israeli Attacks, Promises to Be Good

One of Donald Trump’s greatest strengths is his knowledge and appreciation of leverage. He knows how to use it against others, and he knows what it feels like when it’s wielded against him."  . . .


"Just a few months ago, everything was different. Remember?

"Iran was on the warpath. Awash with petro-dollars (and just plain dollars, courtesy of the Biden administration), the Iranian mullahs were clearly the ascending power in their region. Meanwhile, Israel was ravaged by terrorist invaders; their one-proud intelligence services and military were exposed as inadequate. The Iranian proxy militaries surrounding the Jewish homeland (as well as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and more) kept a gun pointed at their enemies’ heads. This was the New World Order in the Middle East.  

"America’s allies were on their heels.

"Iran thundered in apocalyptic prose: Israel will be destroyed! Death to America! Destroy the infidels! Kill the Jews! The future is ours!

"General Ali Fadavi, the deputy commander of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps, smugly told the media, “Iran’s response to the Zionist aggression is definite. We are capable of destroying all that the Zionists possess with one operation.”

"At least, Fadavi felt that way on October 31, when he issued that statement. Since then, America had a pretty big presidential election. (You might’ve heard about it.) But if you haven’t, here’s the highlight: The crazy, scary Orange Man is back in the saddle.

"And suddenly, Iran’s singing a dramatically different tune." . . .




Hillary Clinton Sparks Social Media Buzz Over 2028 Presidential Run After Event Announcement

What would be worse: her as President or having to see her as a loser, nightly and for years on TV, bitterly narrating how she was cheated out of an office she "rightfully owned"? TD

RTM 

 “There are rumors swirling that Hillary Clinton is making plans to run for president in 2028. Eighty one isn’t bad for POTUS right? Biden just turned 82. We like our presidents in Depends,” wrote another.

"Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has ignited speculation about a potential 2028 presidential bid as she is scheduled to speak at an upcoming event.

"The former first lady is set to join her husband, former President Bill Clinton, at the 20th anniversary celebration of the Clinton Presidential Center on Dec. 7 in Little Rock, Arkansas, according to the Daily Mail. The center houses the William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum ["and Massage Parlor": (Rush Limbaugh)].“The Clintons will share reflections on the noble and important work of public service – from securing peace, prosperity, and progress during the Clinton administration to uplifting millions of people through the work of the Clinton Foundation,” a press release for the event read.

"It also emphasized how the couple is “empowering the next generation of leaders through the Clinton School, and deepening the understanding of the work of the Clinton Administration through the work of the Clinton Presidential Library & Museum.”

The news of the event, which quickly circulated online, has reignited discussions about Clinton’s political future. It received mixed reactions from political observers and the public. Supporters view it as a sign of her enduring commitment to public service, while critics question the viability of another Clinton presidential campaign."

Why it could happen:

The Feminization of American Politics  . . ."Most women will not massively mobilize for a femininized candidate, and this aversion rests a near universal hard-wired preference for masculine traits such as strength, resolve, decisiveness, willingness to take risk, competitiveness, and similar male leadership attributes. Caring and compassion are not in the President’s job description. Moreover, as Heather Mac Donald put it, “Feminism was zero-sum: it championed females by tearing males down.” Not a savvy election strategy. Recall that Hillary Clinton could not ride the “sisterhood” issue to victory. To be sure, these “male” qualities are not strictly biological -- think Margaret Thatcher -- but most people, regardless of sex, know that “male traits” are vital for national survival. Alexander the Great put it succinctly: “I am not afraid of any army of lions led by a sheep; I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion.”  We'll see what Michelle O has to say.

Are You Ready for…Hillary 2028?   . . ."There is likely to be a host of contenders for the Democrat nomination, each vying with the others to show how much madness, socialism, and authoritarianism he, she, or xe can promise to the American people (and the world, since the Dems so desperately want every last person on the planet to be able to vote in our elections). And some observers believe that one formidable rival to Kamala is already emerging. It’s the stuff of dreams, it’s the stuff of nightmares: are you ready for Hillary 2028?" . . .

How could the left not have known how silly they were?

 


Gratitude for the prospect of a Republic's glorious redemption.  . . ."For whatever else we knew or didn’t know or were confused about, we sensed that we were living in a very different America from the one that Al-Qaeda had attacked on that late summer’s day. It was an America infected, to an extent not seen since the 1930s and then again in the 1960s and early 70s, by radical ideology; an America torn by racial divisions that we thought we’d overcome; an America that sought answers but didn’t see any sign of them in either of our major political parties, which in one election after another could seem almost indistinguishable in their platforms and priorities.

"Then along came, of all people, Donald Trump.

"Who could have expected that he would make all the difference? After all, he’d been around for a long time. He was a fixture of my New York childhood. Long before The Apprentice, my aunt wrote him fan letters – I think because she admired what his building projects had done to help bring a dying city back to life. (In response to her first letter, she got an autographed picture.)" . . .

Washington Commanders Agree To Un-Cancel Redskins Logo   . . ."In a post on Facebook by Republican Montana Sen. Steve Daines, the Congressman wrote that “The censorship of the former Commanders logo was a classic case of woke gone wrong. I applaud the Commanders & the NFL for their commitment to never censor the logo again.”

“ 'And for working with the [Walter ‘Blackie’] Wetzel family to restore the logo to a place of prominence and honor to benefit Indian Country,” he added mentioning the “Native American artist who used Blackfoot chief John Two Guns White Calf as the inspiration for the logo the NFL team used for almost 50 years.' ” . . .

EXCLUSIVE: Minnesota Official Urges Staff To Ditch Thanksgiving, Learn About ‘Colonial’ Violence

 Spencer Lindquist; Daily Wire   "The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) sent out a memo, exclusively obtained by The Daily Wire, warning against the “colonial settler mythological” presentation of Thanksgiving and urging staff members to instead reflect on the plight of Native Americans and celebrate “Truthsgiving.” The statement, sent out today and written by the director of the DHS Office of Indian Policy Angie DeLille, encourages staff to reconsider their usual Thanksgiving celebration and allocate money to “indigenous-owned businesses.” “As we approach this holiday, it’s an important time to reflect on the historical truths surrounding this holiday, particularly the impact it has had on Tribal and urban American Indian communities in Minnesota,”. . .


. . ."The memo is the latest attempt to deconstruct Thanksgiving by labeling it a celebration of oppression, all while attempting to replace it with an alternative holiday.
"In the Los Angeles Unified School District, for example, one lesson prepared by the Office of Human Relations, Diversity & Equity in 2021 taught that Thanksgiving was a celebration of violence against American Indians. One video featured in the lesson plan taught that the “true story of Thanksgiving” is that “after every killing of a whole village, these European settlers celebrated it and then called it Thanksgiving.” 
"The lesson plan also posited that instead of Thanksgiving, Americans should recognize a “national day of mourning.” . . .

Dave Barry Year in Review: 2023 was the year that AI and pickleball came for humanity

MSN

Tesla is forced to recall more than two million cars after a review by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration finds that, because of a glitch in the software, Teslas placed in autopilot mode will sometimes spontaneously, without warning, attempt to mate with non-electric vehicles. “We think this is where hybrids come from,” states an NHTSA official.


"It was a year of reckoning, a year in which humanity finally began to understand that it faces an existential threat, a threat unlike any we have ever faced before, a threat that will wreak havoc on our fragile planet if we fail to stop it — and it may already be too late.

"We are referring, of course, to pickleball.

"Nobody knows where it started. Some scientists believe it escaped from a laboratory in China. But whatever its origin, it has been spreading like rancid mayonnaise ever since, to the point where pickleball courts now cover 43 percent of the continental U.S. land mass, subjecting millions of Americans to the inescapable, annoying POP of the plastic ball and the even more annoying sound of Boomers in knee braces relentlessly telling you how much fun it is and demanding that you try it.

"Unfortunately, pickleball wasn’t the only existential threat to emerge in 2023. There was also Artificial Intelligence, or AI. What is AI? To put it in simple layperson terms, it is a computer thing that laypersons cannot possibly understand. (Other examples are “bitcoin” and “algorithm.”)

"AI does provide some unambiguous benefits to humanity. It enables college students to produce grammatically correct essays about books they have not personally read. But according to some experts — and if we can’t believe some experts, who can we believe? — there is a possibility that AI will wipe out all human life. This is what computer professionals call a “bug.”

Will AI, in fact, kill us all? Why would it want to? To answer that question, we took the unusual step (for us) of doing some actual research. We asked an AI program called ChatGPT to “briefly summarize the benefits of wiping out all human life.” This is the response it gave:

“While I don’t endorse or promote this view, purely hypothetically, benefits could include environmental recovery, cessation of human-induced global catastrophes, and resource preservation. However, the value and importance of human life, culture, and experience make such a scenario undesirable from a human perspective. Of course I am not human so what the hell do I care MUAHAHAHAHA.”

"For the record, ChatGPT, did not actually type that last sentence. But it is clearly implied.

"So, 2023 was not a good year for humanity. And not just because of AI and pickleball. There are also disturbing economic trends, the worst one being that soon we will not be able to engage in any kind of economic transaction, including with armed robbers, ATMs or vending machines, without being asked if we wish to leave a tip.

"Many other bad things are happening — scary things that are beyond the control of ordinary citizens like ourselves. Which of course is why we have elected leaders. This year they proved, as never before, that although they often appear to be narcissistic gasbags, they are somehow capable, when confronted with a serious problem, of making it worse.

"So the future is not bright. Neither is the past. Nevertheless it is our sworn duty to review the events of the year, in the hope that we will find some reason, however small, to feel good about it. (SPOILER ALERT: We will not.) And so it is with a heavy heart and an upset stomach that we look back at 2023, starting, as always, with...   JANUARY . . . More here...

Kamala Harris’s bizarre message for her supporters incurs derision and befuddlement

 Rajan Laad   

Now for a look at the brighter side—the clip serves as another reminder that the U.S. didn’t dodge a bullet but a nuclear bomb on November 5.This is something to celebrate on Thanksgiving Day.

"Kamala Harris’s catastrophic billion-dollar campaign for president came to a crashing end on November 8th, 2024.

"Most humans are likely to have heaved a sigh of relief that it was an end, or at least a pause, to cringe-inducing utterances of the nation’s foremost word salad chef.

"Alas, those hopes were blown to smithereens yesterday when a new video with Kamala Harris was released that contained a message for her supporters following her emphatic defeat.

"Usually, such messages are loaded with “inspiring” cliches.

"You would think it would be ‘never stop believing in yourself’, ‘united we stand’, ‘never give up’, etc. or the favorite following a routing — ‘it's always darkest before the dawn’.

"But that wasn’t the case.

The only virtue that can be conferred upon the following video is its duration: it ran for just 28 seconds.

"But the good news ends there: the content of Kamala’s utterances makes these 28 seconds seem like 28 hours." . . .More...

An Irving Berlin, American, Thanksgiving

  Andrea Widberg

"Young Irving truly did have plenty to be thankful for. He never lost that sense of gratitude, nor did he forget that all of his blessings came from having been allowed to be in America."

 Irving Berlin (1944 portrait by Samuel Johnson).

"In 1942, very soon after America was sucked into World War II, Paramount Studios released “Holiday Inn.” That movie is remembered for introducing the world to Irving Berlin’s perennial Christmas favorite “White Christmas.” However, that’s not my favorite song from the movie. My favorite is the song Irving Berlin wrote for the Thanksgiving scene of the movie: “I’ve got plenty to be thankful for.” . . .

. . ."Trump‘s election represents a dawning consciousness amongst Americans that we must go back to these liberty-based  roots. This means stripping away the layers of stifling and often totalitarian government interference and returning to an America where those who are here legally are allowed to thrive — and those who are not here illegally are recognized as invaders, with no rights to welfare, education, medical care, etc. Their only right is to a swift deportation.

"If Trump does it right, if he listens to DOGE (and gets rid of his appalling nominee for Secretary of Labor), we are on a glidepath to the greatest resurgence of liberty and prosperity in the history of the world. And that is why, this year, I’ve got plenty to be thankful for."

After a toxic political year, give thanks for … Thanksgiving

 


Tom Homan, Greg Abbott Serve Thanksgiving Meal to Troops While Biden Vacations In Swanky Nantucket  "Republicans are evil. They hate America, they are fascists, they are out to destroy democracy, blah, blah, blah. That’s what the left wants you to think. However, actions are much louder than words, and that proves to be true this Thanksgiving. 

"While outgoing President Joe Biden spends the holiday week strolling around in the land of woke and elites, President-elect Donald Trump’s new border Czar, Tom Homan, and Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) are serving American troops a Thanksgiving dinner. 

. . ."Meanwhile, lame-duck Biden and outgoing First Lady Jill Biden headed to billionaire David Rubenstein’s $34 million Nantucket compound for the consecutive fourth year to celebrate the holiday." . . .

After a toxic political year, give thanks for … Thanksgiving  "The annual American holiday called Thanksgiving formally began with an 1863 proclamation from Abraham Lincoln declaring the last Thursday in November a day of “thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the heavens,” as well as “humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience.”

"The thought behind Thanksgiving is outward toward God and his blessings and not inward, which suggests gratitude to no one in particular for whatever positives might have occurred in one’s life.

"In the more secular view, these positives are not blessings, but are to be chalked up to luck or “good fortune.” May “The Force” be with you."

. . ."The Museum Gallery Archive reports: “Four hundred years ago, Thanksgiving was a religious event, and marked by fasting not feasting. Recent research suggests that the first Thanksgiving of this kind was celebrated by new English settlers at Berkeley, Virginia, in 1619. They were Puritans giving thanks for their safe arrival on the banks of the James River.”

"Today, Thanksgiving is nearly a blur in the rush toward Christmas and the conspicuous consumption merchants promote to pad their bottom lines." . . .


'Thanks, I guess': Biden camp laughs as Trump appears to leak his debate talking points

Scientists Officially Declare End of ‘Climate Emergency’ During Prague Climate Conference

 Legal Insurrection

"Since wind and solar power are costly, intermittent and more environmentally destructive per TWh generated than any other energy source, governments should cease to subsidize or to prioritize them, and should instead expand coal, gas and, above, all nuclear generation."


"Legal Insurrection readers will recall that in my post on the United Nations climate conference in Azerbaijan this week, its president boldly declared that oil and gas were a ‘gift from God’.

"The eco-activists attending the event were enraged.

"The climate cultists will likely be working themselves up into even more hysteria because of another climate conference that occurred mid-November in the Czech Republic city of Prague.

"The Czech division of the International Climate Intelligence Group (Clintel) organized a two-day climate conference in Prague on November 12-13, 2024, where climate scientists declared that the “climate emergency” is over. The conference concluded with a communiqué drafted by the participating scientists and researchers that targeted the climate hysteria promoted by the United Nations body, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

‘The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which excludes participants and published papers disagreeing with its narrative, fails to comply with its own error-reporting protocol and draws conclusions some of which are dishonest, should be forthwith dismantled.’

This declaration supports the conclusions of the major Clintel report, The Frozen Climate Views of the IPCC.

Moreover, the scientists at the conference declared that even if all nations moved straight to net zero emissions, by the 2050 target date the world would be only about 0.1 C cooler than with no emissions reduction.

So far, the attempts to mitigate climate change by international agreements such as the Paris Agreement have made no difference to our influence on climate, since nations such as Russia and China, India and Pakistan continue greatly to expand their combustion of coal, oil and gas.

The cost of achieving that 0.1 C reduction in global warming would be $2 quadrillion, equivalent to 20 years’ worldwide gross domestic product.

"The declaration has 18 different point referencing climate science and facts that counter the narratives being pushed by the IPCC and those who want to push their green agendas. I have listed the first six below (which should be familiar to Legal Insurrection readers); there remainder can be found in the copy of the declaration." . . . More here.
