Joe Biden is coming for the suburbs

The vapid lullaby of social justice ensures we close our eyes.

Cui bono: Who benefits from razing our great country to the ground?   . . . "Certain politicians, educators, media elite, business leaders, and their enablers in the communication industry daily inform the citizenry and the rest of the world of the racist beginning, middle, and now end of the United States — illogically, at the very time all manner of minorities flock to our southern border to gain access to our alleged racist country.  Every color, creed, religion, sex, and race are present throughout the social order of our communities.  Nobody would allege a perfect society, but it's arguably a good one.  As a general rule, everyone can drive on the roadways, fly on an airplane, shop at any grocery store, drink from any drinking fountain, vote, mail a letter, send his children to public school, live in any community he can afford.  Who benefits from the allegation of an irredeemably racist country of daily group conflict?" . . .   More...

Woke me to sleep, why don’t ya?  . . . "Did you know that there are people, regular Americans who came to D.C. on January 6th and did nothing more than walk into the Capitol, who are still rotting in the fetid D.C. jail without bail? Yet Kamala had a bail fund for Antifa in Minneapolis, and rarely do they get charged." . . .

Joe Biden is coming for the suburbs [His handlers, that is]

Buried deep in Biden's monster $2.3 trillion "infrastructure" stimulus package is a sneaky little notation that would mandate a federal takeover for local zoning for any district that takes the pro-offered federal money, coming off such zones' already-paid taxes.

AOC "knows so much that isn't so"

"The trouble with our Liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so."  Ronald Reagan

Sky News  "Sky News host Rita Panahi says Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has gone “full blown nincompoop” for suggesting the use of the word “surge” when it comes to the crisis at the border is attempting to invoke a “militaristic frame".

“They want to say ‘but what about the surge?’” she told her millions of Instagram followers.

“First of all, just gut check, stop. Anyone who's using the term ‘surge’ around you consciously is trying to invoke a militaristic frame. “And that's a problem because this is not a surge, these are children and they are not insurgents and we are not being invaded, which by the way is a white supremacist idea-philosophy, the idea that if another is coming in the population that this is an invasion of who we are.”

Burnt Out Portland Police Officers Are Fleeing the City in Droves

The end of the noble experiment called America, poisoned by the sheer silliness of leftism that is mocked even by communist countries, TD

Legal Insurrection

“The city council are raging idiots, in addition to being stupid. Additionally, the mayor and council ignore actual facts on crime and policing in favor of radical leftist and anarchist fantasy.” 
 

 

. . . "Edmund DeMarche reports at FOX News:

Portland police look for exit, say they’re ‘burned out’: report

Late last year, Portland’s police department said it received an “unprecedented” number of officers leaving their jobs midcareer to take lower-paying jobs elsewhere — and on Sunday the city’s main newspaper published an article offering a glimpse into the reasons why many decided to leave.

The Oregonian reported that a total of 115 officers have left the department since July 1, 2020, representing “one of the biggest waves of departures in recent memory.”

The paper said it reviewed 31 exit interview statements from these officers that showed a certain level of disillusion with the job. A retiring detective reportedly wrote in one that the community showed officers “zero support.”

“The city council are raging idiots, in addition to being stupid. Additionally, the mayor and council ignore actual facts on crime and policing in favor of radical leftist and anarchist fantasy. What’s worse is ppb command (lt. and above) is arrogantly incompetent and cowardly.” . . .More...

It's a lot more than a game

 Silvio Canto, Jr.  . . . "Down in Atlanta, the commissioner's decision is going to hurt big time, as we see in this report:

Opponents of MLB's decision Monday to move the 2021 All-Star Game to Denver because of Georgia's new voting law suggest the move could end up hurting Atlanta's Black residents rather than helping them.

They note the move will deal an economic blow to Atlanta, which is 51% Black, and provide a boost to Colorado's capital, which is only 9% Black, according to U.S. Census figures.

"Yes, the restaurants, the hotels, the activities around town.

"And let's not forget that Atlanta was going to honor Hank Aaron, who passed away earlier this year.  I'm sure that other places can honor Aaron, but it would have been different in Atlanta, where he hit his historic home runs, from #500 to #715, to break Babe Ruth's record.

"Bad move by Commissioner Rob Manfred, who has not had a press conference to tell the world just what he found so wrong about the law."



Biden adds stupidity to his lies about Georgia’s voting laws

. . . "If you step back from the hysteria and look at what Democrats are actually saying it’s this: Blacks are too stupid to get an ID."  . . .


Andrea Widburg  "If Biden were merely senile, I’d fear for America, but perhaps summon up some sympathy for him. But he’s not merely senile. He’s a vicious, creepy, stupid man, and his non-stop attacks on Georgia are Exhibit A in the case against him. In his latest pronouncements, not only did Biden continue to lie about the Georgia law, but he implied that the Masters Tournament should move from Augusta, Georgia, where it’s been held since 1934 as if golf courses are fungible, not unique." . . .

 Biden’s Lies About Voter Law Cost Georgia The All-Star Game

President Biden and White House press secretary Jen Psaki continued to make false claims about Georgia’s voting law even after they were debunked. Within 48 hours of Biden’s ESPN interview, MLB announced they were pulling the All-Star game.

. . . "Just a few days later, Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler – who is no friend to Republicans – wrote a detailed fact check debunking Biden’s repeated claims about Georgia voting hours:

One could understand a flub in a news conference. But then this same claim popped up in an official presidential statement. Not a single expert we consulted who has studied the law understood why Biden made this claim, as this was the section of law that expanded early voting for many Georgians.

Somehow Biden managed to turn that expansion into a restriction aimed at working people, calling it “among the outrageous parts” of the law. There’s no evidence that is the case. The president earns Four Pinocchios.

Nobody can fake intense sincerity like Joe. The key for our national leaders is sincerity; if you can fake that you've got it made. TD

On the way out the door, CNN’s Brooke Baldwin disses her employer of 13 years

. . . you finish this journey of holding space with women like Gloria Steinem, and Stacey Abrams, and Megan Rapinoe, and Indigenous women fighting, you know, for the planet, or the women cofounders of Black Lives Matter. . .(Wokeness 101)

Peter Barry Chowka     . . . "In fact, things are bad at CNN – and getting worse. After a bump in the ratings between last November’s election and early this year, things have returned to normal with CNN way back in second or third place, far behind the traditional cable news leader Fox News. Meanwhile, as the scandals involving Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) continue to roil, his brother Chris’s role as the governor’s #1 cheerleader on CNN have hardly enhanced the network’s flagging reputation for credibility." . . .

. . . "Interestingly, it is Fox News – a favorite target of CNN news and opinion shows – that features far more women in prominent hosting, reporting, and contributing roles than CNN ever has. Meanwhile, the CEO of Fox News is Suzanne Scott – the first woman to run a cable news channel. Prominent on-air personalities on Fox include Laura Ingraham, Shannon Bream, Harris Faulkner, and Martha MacCallum (who co-anchors the channel’s special programming with Bret Baier), and contributors or frequent guests Kayleigh McEnany, Candace Owens, Mollie Hemingway, and many others." 

"Baldwin’s interview is a classic example of wokeness 101 . . ."

Caitlyn Jenner Weighing Run for California Governor amid Newsom Recall

Will Jenner run?
National Review

"Caitlyn Jenner, the reality TV personality, is considering a run for California governor, three sources with knowledge of the matter told Axios on Tuesday.

"Jenner, a Republican, would run against incumbent governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat who is facing a recall election this year. Newsom faces opposition from California Republicans as well as Democrats frustrated over his response to the coronavirus pandemic.

"Jenner is consulting with GOP fundraiser Caroline Wren. The two met while Wren was working with the American Unity Fund, a Republican non-profit that advocates for LGBT causes. Wren has also worked at Trump Victory, a campaign fundraising organization, and helped organize the former president’s January 6 rally that ended with supporters rioting at the Capitol.

"Both women declined to comment to Axios." . . .

Will Jenner throw the old javelin into the ring?

Rule by Left-Wing Lunatics

Further aside that it annoys me to have to make: There are African Americans, American Indians, immigrants and loads of Mexicans in the Proud Boys. Pretty crappy membership drive for a “hate group.'

Ann Coulter  "A governing principle of the Democratic Party is to ask, “Who is in the dock?” before deciding whether to enforce the law.

"As we have seen throughout the last year of antifa/BLM riots, in blue states, it’s now legal to commit arson, attempted murder, assault on a law enforcement officer and destruction of property — provided the perp is antifa or antifa-friendly. Andy Ngo’s smash bestseller

Unmasked” gives chapter and verse on antifa’s shocking violence untouched by criminal penalty.

"On the other hand, if you’re a conservative, don’t commit a misdemeanor in a blue state. Proud Boys, Capitol Hill protesters, police and other presumed Trump supporters are getting more prison time than actual murderers for minor infractions. Even a couple of personal injury lawyers (liberals) are being criminally prosecuted in St. Louis for brandishing guns at violent looters coming toward their home. The rioters, you see, were BLM protesters.

In all these cases, local Democratic officials gleefully announce that they are locking up “white supremacists.”

"Prepare yourself for a lot of witch-trial hysteria in the upcoming trials of Derek Chauvin in Minneapolis and the Capitol Hill trespassers in Washington, D.C. We’ve already seen it with the Proud Boys in New York City.

"In a nation of laws, a crime is a crime, and it shouldn’t matter whether it’s committed by Mother Teresa or Charles Manson, but, as long as they brought it up, OF COURSE THE PROUD BOYS AREN’T “WHITE SUPREMACISTS”!

"The organization is a tongue-in-cheek men’s group, promoting masculinity and Western civilization in humorous ways. Most of what they tell members is healthy: Get out of your apartment, work out, get a girlfriend and don’t masturbate.  ” . . .

How the Transgender Movement is Destroying Feminism

 Phyllis Chesler  . . . "The transgender movement is well known for shaming, harassing, and silencing all those feminists who have a rational, objective critique of what has become a well-funded, Orwellian movement of Big Brothers in which disagreement is not tolerated -- in fact, it is howled down. Any other point of view on the trans issue has already been disappeared in the academic world, in the media, and in  international and national legal instruments. In fact, it has already made its way onto numerous government medical forms in which unsuspecting elders, waiting in line to be vaccinated,  are asked if they are trans, non-binary, or other.

"Am I now one of those “self-identified feminists who have been promoting damaging and violent ideas about trans people for years?”

"Me? Really? I barely wrote about this subject; I did not even think about it." . . .

"Ideally, I believe in civil and equal rights for every human being.  However, I do not believe in focusing on a trendy, diversionary minority over and above the totally unmet needs of a majority. We have never had enough shelters for battered women (of all colors, yes) including prostituted girls and women. Why are these signatories not fighting for that? " More...

Georgia Lawmakers Demand Removal Of Coca-Cola Drinks In Latest Boycott Over Voting Law

Forbes "A group of Georgia lawmakers are demanding that Coca-Cola products be removed from their office suite after the company’s CEO panned Georgia’s new voting law, the latest boycott called by Republicans to retaliate against companies they claim are contributing to an “out of control cancel culture.”

On Saturday, a group of Republican state lawmakers who share an office suite sent a letter to Kevin Perry, president of the Georgia Beverage Association, calling for all Coca-Cola products to be pulled from their office space “immediately.”

“Given Coca-Cola’s choice to cave to the pressure of an out of control cancel culture, we respectfully requisition all Coca-Cola Co. products to be removed from our office suite immediately,” they wrote, adding they would reconsider if Coke were to “accept their role in the dissemination of mistruths.”

State Reps. Victor Anderson, Matt Barton, Clint Crowe, Stan Gunter, Dewayne Hill, Lauren McDonald III, Jason Ridley and Marcus Wiedower signed on to the letter.

Republican lawmakers also slammed Delta Airlines and Major League Baseball last week for voicing opposition to the new Georgia voting law.

Maybe Coke Should Be Cancelled for Its Nazi Past

One would think that a company so dedicated to rooting out “white supremacy” that it forces its white employees into racial re-education training seminars would first want to take a hard look at its own rather awkward historical relationship with actual white supremacists intent on building a world-dominating “master race.”  That’s what “racial justice” requires, right — the punishment of one generation of Americans for the sins of generations past?  So why should Coca-Cola’s questionable corporate history be off-limits when it goes out of its way to demonize white Americans for no other reason than the color of their skin?
