Tom Cotton Introduces Bill to Prohibit Federal Funding for Schools Using ‘1619 Project’ Curriculum

Amazon

National Review  . . . The 1619 Project, named after the year when colonists first brought slaves to the U.S., attempts to retell American history by emphasizing the importance of slavery in the country’s earliest years. However, historians have criticized the project for basic “factual errors” and a ” displacement of historical understanding by ideology.” (One example of such an error in the project is the assertion that the colonies revolted from British rule in order to preserve slavery.)
"“The New York Times’s 1619 Project is a racially divisive, revisionist account of history that denies the noble principles of freedom and equality on which our nation was founded,” Cotton said in a statement. “Not a single cent of federal funding should go to indoctrinate young Americans with this left-wing garbage.”
"According to Cotton, the bill would not affect federal funding allocated to low-income or special-needs students.
"The Times has announced plans to incorporate material from the project in public school curricula. Districts in several major cities including Chicago, Ill., and Washington, D.C., have adopted some of these materials." . . .

Revisionists at it again: The '1619 Project' is bad history fueled by bad motives  "Every decade or so, a new revisionist fad will captivate some small — and invariably loud — subsect of American “historians.” It happened, most memorably, in the 1960s and ‘70s as the rise of Marxist professors swept through our universities. Slowly but surely the grift was seen for what it was — bad history based on bad motives. But a good deal of damage was done, as thousands of university students were indoctrinated to interpret American history as an ongoing drama of class conflict and nothing more. We see the effects of this education playing out today. 
. . . "Neither party cares that the dissemination of their distortion of America’s story will lead, like the teachings of the Marxists of yesteryear, to the weakening of our shared social fabric. " . . .

Portland Man Hits Woman With a Saw, Bystanders Call Cops Racist for Arresting Him

RedState  Portland continues to sink into the abyss, as violent riots have swept the city for months now (see Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler Leads Protests In Portland Wed. Night – Feds Didn’t Change Tactics). But the chaos doesn’t just come out at night. The city is also seeing a spike in other crimes, including violent ones. One was caught on video recently, with Andy Ngo reporting on the incident.

"The following video shows a man entering a laundromat and hitting a woman with a saw before leaving the scene. Viewer discretion is advised.

"According to Ngo, police pursued the man, who had obviously just committed a heinous crime. What was the response? Bystanders gathered around the officers screaming at them that they were racist for trying to make the arrest.

"We’ve entered the twilight zone, or at least large parts of the country have. When it’s now racist for police to arrest someone who just committed a violent crime minutes beforehand, what exactly even is the standard at this point? Never arrest anyone non-white again? That might seem ludicrous, but that’s actually part of the argument we are hearing from the intersectional left. They say that because the system is “racist,” people are corrupted by that system to commit crimes, therefore the system is still to blame and not the individual. It’s how you get mayors across the country letting violent criminals back out onto the streets under the ridiculous notion that they were simply oppressed and will do fine now." . . .

MSNBC Blames Federal Police For ‘Riotous Behavior’ In Portland

‘Liberal Sherpa’ sues Tucker Carlson, claims he ‘sexually harassed her’ – by taking his jacket off on set

Law Enforcement Today  "In what could be construed as frivolous, Tucker Carlson has been named among other Fox News figures in a lawsuit that alleges Carlson made some suggestively inviting comments to engage in promiscuity with a former guest on his show, Cathy Areu.
. . . 

"A Fox News spokesperson responded to the lawsuit, stating the following: 
. . . 
Perhaps she wasn’t invited back to the show because of ridiculous comments like referring to babies as “theybies” – since you wouldn’t want to offend their gender identity that hasn’t formed yet.

Or perhaps that one 2018 segment where she argued that words like “mailman” are sexist language. Don’t forget how she championed when colleges brought in “cry closets” for students stressed about finals....

..." 'Based on the findings of a comprehensive independent investigation conducted by an outside law firm, including interviews with numerous eyewitnesses, we have determined that all of Cathy Areu’s claims against FOX News, including its management as well as its hosts Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity & Howard Kurtz and its contributor Gianno Caldwell, are false, patently frivolous and utterly devoid of any merit.”

"It’s painfully obvious that the show simply didn’t want to host the “Liberal Sherpa” any longer, and to bring about a lawsuit alleging retaliation seems a bit of a far cry based upon evidence at hand.

"But, we all know this isn’t about a lawsuit – it’s a means to weaponize a civil suit to create a headline and a character attack." . . .  Cathy Areu at length

Fox News sent a full statement on the matter with witch Cathy Areu to the Deseret News:  “Based on the findings of a comprehensive independent investigation conducted by an outside law firm, including interviews with numerous eyewitnesses, we have determined that all of Cathy Areu’s claims against FOX News, including its management as well as its hosts Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity & Howard Kurtz and its contributor Gianno Caldwell, are false, patently frivolous and utterly devoid of any merit. We take all claims of harassment, misconduct and retaliation seriously, promptly investigating them and taking immediate action as needed — in this case, the appropriate action based on our investigation is to defend vigorously against these baseless allegations. Ms. Areu and Jennifer Eckhart can pursue their claims against Ed Henry directly with him, as FOX News already took swift action as soon as it learned of Ms. Eckhart’s claims on June 25 and Mr. Henry is no longer employed by the network.”

This dirtbag’s name is Isaiah Jackson. He’s supporting BLM by kneeling on the neck of a white toddler. I want you to imagine for a moment the reaction if the child was black and the message said “MAGA” instead of “BLM”. It would be the only thing we talked about for a month.
Update: Charges filed against this man
Democrats Project their own Character Flaws onto Republicans . . . "It’s a glaring, infuriating double standard where Larry Craig is forced to resign from the Senate after being arrested for lewd conduct in a men’s restroom and yet amazingly, nobody said a word after Congressman Barney Frank hired a male prostitute as a personal aide and had to fire him after it was discovered the “aide” was running a male prostitution ring right out of the congressman’s personal residence. If the Democrats aren’t allowed to have double standards, they’d have no standards at all." Posted elsewhere here

Democrats, COVID, and the War on Children  . . . "As White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow argues, “[I]f we don't reopen the schools, that would be a setback to a true economic recovery.” And that is exactly what the Democrats try to avoid on the eve of the November elections. And that destructive desire -- “The worse, the better,” drives all their agenda." . ..

Democrats and the media have been gasping in horror at the sight of federal law enforcement agents appearing in such a bucolic little burg. 

. . . After hiding the truth for 50 days, this week, Democrats and the media have been gasping in horror at the sight of federal law enforcement agents appearing in such a bucolic little burg.  Here’s some of what’s being hidden from you: . . .

Delusional Democrats intent on trying to fool Americans 

Dems don’t care that their cities are blighted by crime, police are injured and citizens live in fear, because all that matters is to create the election-winning delusion that Trump is to blame for the mayhem they have created. It’s short-term pain for long-term gain. They are creating an image for Trump as Captain Chaos, not the law-and-order president he seeks to be.

The Left - Democrats - is signing up citizens to physically remove President Trump from office if he loses. Requiring a compliant press and a mal-educated voting public, all of which are readily available in America, sadly.

Uygur’s theory about Trump defying November results fell in line with several recent examples of Democrats and others on the left laying down the narrative about his stealing the election. Democrats including Biden and failed 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton have been dropping commentary about Trump not accepting a loss in November, further spreading the election conspiracy among the Resistance.

Biden Says Trump Is America’s First ‘Racist’ President   . . . "Biden’s own record on race relations has come into question since the launch of his presidential campaign, as many progressives criticize his opposition in the 1970s of busing meant to desegregate schools."

Former Black Panther, Dem Rep. Bobby Rush claims Trump 'wants to instigate a race war’  "Democratic Rep. Bobby Rush on Wednesday accused President Trump of wanting to “instigate a race war” so he could say he was the “grand wizard of the Klu Klux Klan [sic].' ” . . .
A comment to this post: "FEAR. LIES That's all this tired, washed up Democrat has left to peddle. God forbid that someone-anyone-tries to quell the violence, then it's the re-birth of the KKK. Try looking in a mirror, Bobby Rush, you'll see a lying racist looking back at you."
Bobby Rush is famous for this concern he expressed to an admiral in a Congressional hearing": ''My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize.''

Guy walks down SF street bashing windshields. No one bats an eye  . . . "Many blame its new District Attorney Chesa Boudin, a social justice warrior and son of convicted murderers who has, as promised, put criminals on the street, not prosecuted those who attack police officers, and fired veteran prosecutors who actually have a track record of prosecuting.
“ 'That is probably somebody Chesa decided to not prosecute and is currently doing restorative justice,” mused AsianPersonInTheRoom."

Dictatorship – here now in leftist cities. Malkin beaten up… This is NOW, not after election. Imagine if…   If any of us tries to dissent against oppressive leftist government policies, there will be no freedom of speech in the press, public life, the classroom...anywhere. We have seen vividly who can show up at your door.

But instead you have derelict mayors and Democrat streets, and children dying and it’s unacceptable and this president will always stand up for those children, and that’s what I love so much about President Trump.”

Democrats Try to Revive the Russians-Stole-the-Election Narrative for 2020 to Hide Joe Biden’s Ukraine Corruption  “Today, I am putting the Kremlin and other foreign governments on notice. If elected president, I will treat foreign interference in our election as an adversarial act that significantly affects the relationship between the United States and the interfering nation’s government,” Biden said on Monday, adding, “Russia is not the only foreign actor seeking to interfere in our democracy. Increasingly, other states have shown an interest in copying Russia’s tactics.”

Right-Wing Artist Unfurls MASSIVE Banner of Bill de Blasio Holding Lady Liberty’s Severed Head Over Staten Island Expressway

The Gateway Pundit   "Right-wing artist and activist Scott LoBaido has unfurled a massive banner of New York Mayor Bill de Blasio holding Lady Liberty’s severed head over the Staten Island Expressway."

"The giant banner is 20′ by 30′, or roughly the size of a large two car garage, and features de Blasio happily holding the bleeding head while rocking a Che Guevara shirt.

"The New York Post reports that “while cops asked LoBaido to take the print down about an hour and a half after it went up, the controversial artist said he’s got plans to hang it elsewhere in the city in the future.”
"This wasn’t the first art LoBaido blessed Staten Island with this week.
"The day before he dropped the banner, he also painted a thin blue line in the street outside the 122nd Precinct stationhouse in New Dorp where he recently held a rally.
"Unfortunately, his work was defaced by a Black Lives Matter activist within minutes. The vandal was chased off by an angry bystander.
"SILive reports that LoBaido completed the line without a permit explaining that Mayor Bill de Blasio didn’t get a permit to paint Black Lives Matter on the streets of New York.
" 'The mayor never got a permit to do that street art, so I guess it’s fair game,” he added." . . .

Disgusting CNN: Trump Wearing a Mask Like 'Potty Training' a Child

Duncan Schroeder  "Proving the cable channel is no longer a news network, on Tuesday’s New Day, CNN co-hosts John Berman and Alisyn Camerota brought on political correspondent Seung Min Kim to launch juvenile insults at President Trump. Berman was particularly obnoxious, as he completely shunned his guise of being a journalist to compare Republicans praising Trump for wearing a mask to parents “praising a kid for learning how to potty train.”

Toon added by TD

"Berman began the absurd discussion by comparing Republicans lauding Trump to training a dog or feeding an infant: "I have to say, one of the things that's most interesting is the way that the Republicans on Capitol Hill are treating the President, almost cloying and begging for him to lead here and trying to give him positive reinforcement, the way you would to, you know, a dog, or the way you would to your baby when you're trying to feed him.' " 
. . . "People are supposed to go to CNN for news? This isn’t news, it's two people that hate Trump so much that they are attacking him with insults straight from the playbook of a third grade bully. Forget a nuanced, statistically backed discussion explaining why Trump should wear a mask like actual journalists would do. Since they are Democratic hacks and want Trump to look bad, they would rather compare him to a child and discuss potty training. With content like this, no wonder only 41% of Americans trust the media." . . .
. . . 
"This is the kind of drivel that should make people embarrassed to work at CNN.
"These disgusting insults were brought to viewers by Carvana.* You can fight back by letting advertisers know what you think of them sponsoring such content."

If you want to call the networks directly to let them know how you feel about their advertisers, use the numbers below:    
. .  . "The radical left's effort to silence conservative media by targeting their advertisers with coordinated smear campaigns has gone unanswered for too long. It’s time the conservative movement fights back, but with a big difference – we'll tell the truth!

• We will identify advertisers who sponsor dishonest media outlets that distort the news to fit their political agenda. This includes biased reporting as well as covering up stories that don’t fit the narrative they are trying to push.
• When the agitators on the Left bully advertisers into boycotting conservative voices, we will hold those advertisers accountable.
• We will also be closely monitoring every cable and network news show and informing their advertisers and the American public when they go beyond political commentary and engage in smear, hate and the promotion of violence. 

"Our message to the advertisers: If you continue sponsoring these shows and their radical left-wing vision for remaking America, we will publicly associate your company with them.

"We're going to let these advertisers know we’re mad as hell, and we're not going to take it anymore!" . . .

This Black Lives Matter Activist Thought KNEELING on a White Baby's Neck Was a Good Idea...

PJ Media

"A shocking and deeply disturbing image posted to Facebook has led to the arrest of a Black Lives Matter activist. A black man, identified as BLM supporter Isaiah Jackson, took a picture of himself kneeling on the neck of a 2-year-old white child in diapers. The image shows another person holding the child’s arms back, and the child crying. The caption read, “Blm now mf.”

"The shocking image quickly spread on social media, and at least one person reported it to the local sheriff’s office.
"According to WHIO TV,

Charges are pending review by the Clark County Prosecutor’s Office against a man accused of kneeling on the neck of a 2-year-old child in a photo shared on social media, according to the Clark County Sheriff’s Office.

The man, who deputies identified as Isaiah Jackson, 20, has been booked in the Clark County Jail on a probation violation and remains in the jail Wednesday afternoon, according to online jail records.

The sheriff’s office said a case against Jackson has been presented to the prosecutor’s office who will “provide a determination on the scope and breadth of the felony charges” that Jackson will face in the alleged incident, Clark County Sheriff’s Office Lt. Kristopher Shultz said in a media release. Investigators did not detail the charges Jackson might be charged with.

Deputies said an investigation was launched Tuesday after they were made aware of the photo, which shows a man with his knee on the back of a child’s neck. The child appears to be crying in the photo while a second person holds the child’s hands behind their back. The photo’s caption read “Blm now.”

"The report was incomplete. The caption actually said, “Blm now mf”. WHIO TV reported the mother of the child was dating Jackson, but that she was unaware of the picture being taken.

"The picture sparked outrage as it went viral on social media.

" 'WARNING: This image is disturbing." . . .

Dems -- the Antifa Party

Ann Coulter   — “These soldiers are disregarding and overriding the elementary rights of American citizens by applying tactics which must have been copied from the manual issued the officers of Hitler’s storm troopers.”      — The president is substituting “military dictatorship for the Constitution of the United States.”     — “My fellow citizens, we are now an occupied territory.”

"All this because, after 50 days of raging violence, President Trump has finally sent federal agents to restore order in Portland, Oregon.
"No — wait. Different Democrats and different president.
"Although all those quotes are indeed from Democrats about a Republican president, it wasn’t Trump. They were Democrats Richard Russell, George Wallace, and Orval Faubus,
denouncing President Dwight Eisenhower for sending troops to enforce desegregation at a schoolhouse in Little Rock, Arkansas.
"In 1983, Faubus was warmly embraced by Bill Clinton at his gubernatorial inauguration. Today’s Democrats are Orval Faubus.
"In Portland, Chicago, New York, Seattle, Atlanta and elsewhere, children are not merely being blocked from the schoolhouse door — they’re being killed. They’re being maimed. Citizens are having their property looted and their public spaces destroyed, all with the connivance of local Democratic officials.
"And once again, the Democrats are championing states’ rights to protect domestic terrorists.
“Trump & his stormtroopers must be stopped.” — Nancy Pelosi
. . . 
"Democrats don’t care that they are mimicking monstrous figures from the nation’s history. They don’t care that they are taking sides with antifa, whose express mission is to kill police officers and destroy America.

Norman Rockwell

Oh, we’ll get away with it. The media won’t report on the violent rioting that the federal government is quelling.

" Boy, are they right.
"If Faubus had had MSNBC, CNN and The New York Times covering for him, Americans wouldn’t have had the first idea why Eisenhower was sending troops to Little Rock."

Maxine Waters stops in traffic to harass LA cops for pulling over a ‘brother’

Def-Con "As if police officers don’t have enough to worry about these days, in Los Angeles they now have to deal with despicable, attention-seeking Democratic lawmakers interfering with their efforts to do their job.
"Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., the woman who launched a wave of incidents where Republican officials were accosted in the public by unhinged activists, was captured on video over the weekend pulling her SUV over to monitor a traffic stop by LA police.
"Her reasoning being clear — because the driver being stopped was a black man.
" 'They stopped a brother, so I stopped to see what they were doing,” the lawmaker tells some admirers.
"Waters was praised online for her actions."
""The use of the term “brother” used to indicate that the driver was black. The remark suggests that had the driver been white, Watters would have cruised by unconcerned about any potential mistreatment by police.
"At the same time, the controversial 81-year-old Democrat was clear about her disdain for law enforcement.
“ 'They say I’m in the wrong place and they’re going to give me a ticket,” she continued. “That’s okay, as long as I watch them.”
"However, it appears that Waters was more intent on harassing the police officers as they carry out their duty, according to the Daily Mail." . . .

Where was Maxine when her "brothers" were beating truck driver close to death, only to be rescued by some of her voters who had the class and bravery to rescue him? They saw this happening on TV, as Waters must have as well, but, unlike the Democrat congresswoman, they did what had to be done. TD

Never Forget Maxine Waters Embraced the Thug Who Slammed Concrete on Reginald Denny’s Head  "NEVER FORGET that Maxine Waters embraced Damien Williams, the infamous thug who hurled a chunk of concrete at truck driver Reginald Denny and performed a victory dance over this innocent man’s battered body. Maxine Waters even visited Damien Williams’ mother to offer her support.

"Williams was sent to prison on a single felony charge of mayhem, but when his accomplices got off, Waters joined in the celebration.

"Damien Williams was released a few years later and went on to murder somebody else. Also, no surprise, he was a member of the Crips." . . .It all happened on videotape, a helicopter caught it, and it happened in Maxine Waters’ city. But she did not denounce the attack. On the contrary, she all but endorsed the attack.
