Emily Cummiskey steps down as Chair of School Committee, blames others for smear of Nicole: “The PR firm delivered me three statements, one for social media, one for Fox news, and one to read at last Wednesday’s meeting.”
"The aggressiveness with which the South Kingstown (Rhode Island) School Committee went after local mom Nicole Solas, for filing a series of public records requests regarding Critical Race and Gender activities in the school system, has never made sense. We now have a partial answer – the smear of Nicole in public statements by the School Committee Chair was drafted by a Public Relations firm.
Teacher Unloads on 'Woke' CRT Agenda During Loudoun County School Board Meeting. . . Fortunately, efforts to intimidate and shut down opponents of CRT are not going so well. Not only have parents dropped straight fire on the school board every chance they get for all the world to see, but some teachers have gotten in on the action as well, as evidenced by the video below of a Fairfax County teacher going off on leftist indoctrination including the woke CRT agenda as well as providing strong words of encouragement for anyone too afraid to speak out for fear of retaliation." . . .
Article 20 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states, “Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association.” This right is only selectively true. If you’re a ‘mostly peaceful’ protestor who feels like torching cars and looting a Nike store, then, sure, you have the right to peaceful assembly.
Simon Black, Sovereign Man:"On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of World War II, the newly formed United Nations wanted to make a bold statement to counter all the atrocities the world had just witnessed.
"The previous decade had been almost nonstop genocide and devastation brought on by a Nazi doctrine of intolerance.
"And so the UN drafted a first-everUniversal Declaration of Human Rights in an effort to set a new tone for the future.
"In the very first article, for example, the document states
“All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights… without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.”
"This is obviously a wonderful idea— race, gender, sexuality, etc. should be irrelevant characteristics.
"Yet in modern woke society, these are the ONLY characteristics that matter; it has become so ridiculous, in fact, that woke leaders now talk openly about segregation— separate schools, seperate dormatories, etc. for black students and white students.
"So this very basic human right— to be treated as a person, and not as a color, has been thrown out the window. But the contradictions to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights don’t stop there." . . .More...

Obama and Me: How I Knew Obama Was a Bad Guy Before Anyone Else"I've been writing about "Obama the bad guy" for many years. I was the first to name former President Barack Obama the head of the Obama crime family. I coined the phrase "Obamagate" to describe his reign of crimes against candidate and then President Donald J. Trump.". . .
"Obama's public persona was always a scam. I knew the real Obama -- way before anyone else caught on." . . .
"If Obama sent a government agency after his college classmate Wayne Root, think about what he'd be willing to do to Donald Trump. The answer is anything and everything: spying; unmasking; leaking; framing Trump and his top advisors; and, eventually, in desperation after all else failed, a full-blown coup.
"Yes, just imagine wanting to secure the border, secure elections, and not want to demonize an entire people as evil oppressors simply based on the color of their skin. The horror!
"He also invokes the Charlottesville Hoax repeating the repeatedly debunked claimthat Trump said that the neo-Nazis marching were “good people” back in 2017." . . .
Is his ‘interview’ with Jen Psaki the most embarrassing segment CNN has ever aired?
"What exactly are the qualifications to host a show on CNN? The most obvious seems to be an astonishing lack of professional shame — and I’m not even talking about the circus act Chris Cuomo’s been doing for the past year.
"Reliable Sourcesis the most ironically named show in all of cable news, given that the guest roster regularly includes Dan Rather. On this Sunday’s episode, host Brian Stelter partook in a highly embarrassing act of professional self-debasement, in a segment in which he offered schoolgirl giggles and petty star-gazing over White House press secretary Jen Psaki. Stelter acted like a privileged fan of Psaki, giddy to just be basking in her celebrity aura for a brief moment of her precious time. Stelter regularly claims his show covers all things media — when he actually just means all things Fox News. He usually invites other like-minded guests on to bicker about Fox News, like a clique from a bad Nineties teen movie. That’s all fine and good, as that is what CNN has chosen for its business model, but Brian Stelteralsoclaims to be a real journalist who tackles hard issues." . . .
This administration knows Brian Stelter is a mark, someone who has advanced his career solely by sucking up to power, whether it be in the Obama and Biden White House or Warner Media. Stelter, remember, wrote a tell-all about NBC, but somehow forgot to include a chapter on Matt Lauer. Oops!
Babylon Bee Parody "WASHINGTON, D.C.—Health officials have raised serious concerns about the state of Press Secretary Jen Psaki's health after she revealed in a briefing that she "has trouble keeping up with Biden."
" 'This is bad-- really, really bad," said health expert Dr. Hans Gundersen to the press. "Biden is in really bad shape. We're not even sure Biden is legally still alive right now, or what exactly is holding him together or animating his limbs and causing sounds to come out of his mouth. It's a total mystery. I have fewer concerns about the health of the possum I ran over in my car this morning than I do with Biden. It's really, really not good. What was I even talking about? Oh yeah-- Psaki. If she's having trouble keeping up with that guy, then she's in serious trouble health-wise."
"Several other doctors have come forward, diagnosing Psaki with a host of possible conditions, including chronic fatigue syndrome, actue liver and kidney failure, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
" 'Any of these could be the cause of Paski having issues keeping up with Biden," said Gundersen.
"Psaki is being urged to check herself into the White House Medical Unit as soon as possible.
" 'Please Jen! Before it's too late!" said Gundersen."
. . . Nor, do I like people who say, “I pray for you,” when they know that that’s not so. So many people have been hurt. We can’t let that go on. Donald Trump
. . . "The baked goods quickly drew ire and mockery from conservative pundits on social media.
"As a former Military Aide during the Clinton administration, I never even imagined this level of narcissism," wrote Buzz Patterson, a candidate for Congress. "And, all on YOUR tax dollars America! Democrats, even you can’t be cool with this."
"The right-wing group For America used the cookies to berate Harris's supposed reluctance to visit the southern border as migrants continue to overwhelm authorities in unprecedented numbers. President Joe Biden appointed the vice president as the czar of the immigration crisis in April." . . .
. . . “ 'Cookies that were provided to passengers on Air Force Two on Sunday were a gift from a member of the staff,” a White House official told reporters on condition of anonymity. “The vice president wanted to make sure the cookies were shared with everyone.”
"The frosted cookies, decorated with a likeness of Ms.Harris, complete withherhair style and a strand of pearls, were handed out to journalists traveling with the vice president onherfirst trip abroad.Sheis visiting Guatemala and Mexico to address the “root causes” of a surge in illegal migration to the U.S. from Central America.". . .
How did Obama not think of this idea first and include his halo?
Can we be very clear that Kamala Harris is such a sociopath that she’s handing out cookies of her faceless head to try and curry favor with the stenographers at the back of her plane?
Campus Reform"On this week’s episode of the Campus Countdown, Campus Reform’s Addison Smith praised Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for signing a bill that will prevent men from competing in women’s sports.
"Speaking on the bill, DeSantis said at a Fox News townhall event, “I have a 4-year-old daughter and a 1-year-old daughter. They’re both very athletic. We want to have opportunities for our girls. They deserve an even playing field, and that’s what we’re doing."
"Smith applauded DeSantis for protecting women’s sports, citing that men, “have biologically, radically different height, weight and strength advantages,” and that allowing transgender athletes to compete in women’s sports is “demeaning to women.”
"Smith then criticized the left’s outrage, saying that they aren’t even able to give a concrete definition of a woman.
"“The best definition that they give is that a woman is someone who identifies as a woman. But that’s like me saying, ‘a flower is that which is a flower.’ It’s a circular argument. The terms, ‘woman’ and ‘man’, mean something.. . . '”
No apology: Yale releases lukewarm statement on speaker who said she dreams of shooting white people "Dr. Aruna Khilanani, a New York-based forensic psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, gave a Grand Rounds lecture on April 6, titled "The Psychopathic Problem of the White Mind." Yale only addressed Khilanani's controversial statements yesterday, after Bari Weiss posted an audio recording of the session to her Substack.
""I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body, and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step. Like I did the world a f***ing favor," said Khilanani.
"She went on to describe talking to a white person about race as "asking a demented, violent predator who thinks that they are a saint or a superhero, to accept responsibility. It ain't gonna happen. They have five holes in their brain.' " . . .
The Third-world speaks:Yale Lecturer 'Had Fantasies of Unloading a Revolver Into the Head of Any White Person' Who Got in Her Way
I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body, and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step. Like I did the world a f***ing favor. (Time stamp: 7:17)
This is the cost of talking to white people at all. The cost of your own life, as they suck you dry. There are no good apples out there. White people make my blood boil. (Time stamp: 6:45)
We are now in a psychological predicament, because white people feel that we are bullying them when we bring up race. They feel that we should be thanking them for all that they have done for us. They are confused, and so are we. We keep forgetting that directly talking about race is a waste of our breath. We are asking a demented, violent predator who thinks that they are a saint or a superhero, to accept responsibility. It ain’t gonna happen. They have five holes in their brain. It’s like banging your head against a brick wall. It’s just like sort of not a good idea. (Time stamp 17:13)
. . . "DiCaprio spoke last week on Earth Day, as 175 world leaders signed the Paris climate agreement. DiCaprio told them that "now is the time for bold, unprecedented action" and asked the delegates to look around and "ask each other, which side of history will you be on?" It was a speech filled with many more bromides, none of them insightful and all of them coming from a movie star who takes himself far too seriously and wants others to see him as a high-minded and thoughtful adult, not just an actor for hire." . . .
OPINION: Celebrities should stop virtue signaling. . . "The presence of virtue signaling is growing in our society. The issue seems to worsen with an increasing number of celebrities eager to share their thoughts on social media, through protests and during award acceptance speeches. At the 2020 Golden Globe Awards, however, one celebrity stood out. Instead of lecturing the audience, Ricky Gervais decided to lecture the celebrities instead.
As host, Gervais poked fun at multiple celebrities and controversies within Hollywood, finishing his monologue by warning them, “So if you win, come up, accept your little award, thank your agent and your God, and f— off.”
"However, his heartfelt speech did not accomplish what was intended, with multiple celebrities—such as Brad Pitt and Joaquin Phoenix—speaking out at the Golden Globes and the Academy Awards anyway.
"Phoenix, for example, won an Oscar for his performance in “Joker” and gave his two cents about society in his acceptance speech, encouraging everyone to stop eating meat.". . .

Related: Professor Who Refused To Obey “Preferred Pronouns” Can Continue Lawsuit, Appeals Court Rules . . . "During a political philosophy class he was teaching, Professor Meriwether responded to a male student’s question by saying, “Yes, sir.” Professor Meriwether responded in this fashion because he refers to all his students as “sir” or “ma’am” or by a title (Mr. or Miss, for example) followed by their last name to foster an atmosphere of seriousness and mutual respect. After the class, the student approached Professor Meriwether, stated that he was transgender, and demanded that the professor refer to him as a woman, with feminine titles and pronouns. When Meriwether did not instantly agree, the student became belligerent, circling around Meriwether and getting in his face in a threatening fashion while telling him, “Then I guess this means I can call you a c**t.” Before walking away, the student promised to get Meriwether fired if he did not agree to the student’s demands.
"Although Professor Meriwether offered to use any name the student preferred, the university was not willing to accept that compromise, choosing instead to force the professor to speak and act contrary to his own Christian convictions." . . .More...
