Travis Tritt: Vaccine Mandates Used to ‘Shame,’ ‘Discriminate Against People that They Don’t Feel Are Clean’

Breitbart  "Tuesday on FNC’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” country music artist Travis Tritt elaborated on his refusal to perform venues that are imposing vaccine requirements for attendees.

"Tritt told host Tucker Carlson he had played 75 shows in 2021 and said that the term “super spreader” was not applicable to his events, given there had been no noticeable out-of-the-ordinary increase in COVID numbers after his concerts.

"He also called the mandates were divisive and used to “shame” and “discriminate.' ”. . . 

"Biden’s Voters Really Thought He Would Govern Competently? And yet we must pray for him to last three more years."

"It is the way of the new vision: D.I.E. — Diversity, Inclusion, Equity. Instead of equal opportunity, equal results. A vice president of no consequence or attainment whose two resumé qualifiers are that she is female and remains darker skinned even after a three-week visit to Florida. A president who ran on a 50-year record of failure and racial bigotry. . ."

 Source: The American Spectator  . . ."That really is how we ended up with Biden as president. No one sensible conceivably thought that after 50 years of his manifest mediocrity and plentiful plagiarism in public life, this charisma-less character suddenly was going to push Teddy Roosevelt or Thomas Jefferson off Mount Rushmore. Biden inevitably was going to be a candidate, instead, for a Mount Flushmore, perhaps accompanied by a Millard Fillmore, a Franklin Pierce, or a James Buchanan. He had nowhere to lead us because, although even a pencil must be lead, Biden’s presidential candidacy, with Kamala and Nancy in the wings and “The Squad” as backup, was a Peter Bruegel the Elder painting to rival the best “Blind Leading the Blind” paint-by-payola-numbers art works among the coveted Hunter oeuvre of collected high-bribe etch-a-sketch offerings.

"Biden so obviously was going to lead us nowhere — not into the Promised Land, not out of Egypt, not even around a desert for 40 years. Like the mediocre colonel who submitted a mediocre application for promotion, his only letter of recommendation could read: “His men would follow him anywhere — but only out of curiosity.”* 

"And yet the Democrats selected him from among their primary bounty of choices, a box of chocolates without fillings in the center … and without chocolate. And now the rest of America is surprised to see the Guernica they got? Why the surprise? How the surprise? It never could have been otherwise. He had no vision for half a century — and yet now he suddenly was going to see a future when he still was promoting 33 rpm vinyl records in 2020? One year ago Politico had him at +16 and Fox News at +20.  Harvard-Harris still had him at +15 in June. It made no sense. And then came Afghanistan — the hammer.

"Afghanistan was so dramatic that it pierced through the combined Left Media and Social Media walls protecting Biden from public view. People finally got their glimpse of the man they had seated in the Oval Office.". . .

Irrelevant Republicans Being Ignored!

The liberal media is giving all their attention to the tax and spend Democrats!

Outside The Beltway

"Via the memeorandum aggregator, I found this bizarre story on Newsbusters (“LOPSIDED: Dems Swamp Republicans (115 to 16) on Evening News Budget Stories“):

Is there any surprise our national debt keeps climbing when the voices calling for fiscal responsibility are almost completely drowned out by the national media?

In the network evening news show coverage of stories about the infrastructure bill, increasing the debt ceiling and President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” spending boondoggle Republican voices were almost completely shut out. 

MRC analysts looked at 30 stories on the ABC, CBS and NBC evening programs covering the most recent budget debates from September 23 to October 10 and discovered a whopping disparity in soundbites with Democrats overwhelming Republicans by a 115 to 16 count.  

Yes, viewers of these programs were seven times more likely to hear from hardcore big spending Democratic lefties such as Sen. Bernie Sanders, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Pramila Jayapal than Republicans like Sen. Mitch McConnell or Rep. Kevin McCarthy.

"Leaving aside that the Republicans seem to be committed to “fiscal responsibility” only when Democrats are in the White House, this seems a rather bizarre critique. One party controls the White House, House of Representatives, and (nominally, at least) the Senate. The Republican leader in the Senate, Mitch McConnell, has made it abundantly clear that there will not be a single vote from his party for raising the debt ceiling or in support of the reconciliation package.". . .

All emphases in the original.

Jason Whitlock Fires a Warning Shot at White Men and American Males with Traditional Values – What the Left Did to Black Men, “YOU’RE NEXT!”

 Pastorius @ DEPLORABLE Bloggers Alliance  "Sportswriter and conservative thought leader Jason Whitlock appeared on Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Thursday to discuss the recent liberal media attacks on black comedian Dave Chappelle and NBA player Kyrie Irving. Whitlock described how the liberal left has destroyed black men and the black family in America today. He then fired a warning shot at white men and men with traditional values. The left is coming for you next.    

"Whitlock recently said as much in his column at The Blaze. 

"Tucker asked Whitlock to summarize his latest piece for the viewers. 

Jason Whitlock: “It’s critical that men stand up because we’re teh ones being bullied into the closet if we have any traditional values… In my podcast I’m trying to explain to all men regardless of color, we got to get into this together. You can’t look at this and go, Oh look what’s happening to black guys, and not understand – You’re next! You’re next! They’re in your schools emasculating you right now with critical race theory and teaching your kids that you’re the worst person on the planet. They’ve come for us. I admit, from the Great Society Initiative and the total emasculating of black men, and the creation of the welfare state, and running the man out of the black family. And now we have all these confused and clueless and dysfunctional kids. I’m telling you, YOU’RE NEXT! And if we don’t come together those of us who believe in a higher power, those of us who believe in God and Jesus, those of us with traditional male values. If we don’t come together regardless of our skin color, we’re all going down!

. . .  Before the Great Society legislation was passed and signed into law, Malcolm X predicted exactly what Jason Whitlock is talking about here. And Whitlock is right to say, "They're coming for you next." Because they've already started."

How long must we endure the silliness of the Democrat culture?

"If there is a lesson in all of this it is that our Constitution is neither a self-actuating nor a self-correcting document. It requires the constant attention and devotion of all citizens. There is a story, often told, that upon exiting the Constitutional Convention Benjamin Franklin was approached by a group of citizens asking what sort of government the delegates had created. His answer was: "A republic, if you can keep it." The brevity of that response should not cause us to under-value its essential meaning: democratic republics are not merely founded upon the consent of the people, they are also absolutely dependent upon the active and informed involvement of the people for their continued good health."  Dr. Richard Beeman

A student’s anxiety attack about “cisgender” workmen is peak Oberlin  ..."Glenn Greenwald, who is gay and a leftist, is nevertheless a sane man who is becoming disenchanted with leftist madness. Therefore, he nails the intellectual rot that Oberlin is allowing and even encouraging:"...

  Clearly, Oberlin students don’t go to college to expand their horizons but to narrow them. Baldwin Cottage is the “Women and Trans Collective” residence. The official description is a collection of mindless leftist buzzwords about identity politics and “gender identity.”

Mr. Greenwald adds: ..."Ponder the rotted roots of an ideology that convinces highly privileged and wealthy students at elite colleges that the guys who come to fix their radiators are their oppressors, and that the ones whose family is paying $80k/year are the oppressed."...

New York City has reverted to a pre-Giuliani-era "Shattered" urban hellhole, with crime, homelessness, rats, and garbage completely out of control.

I’m almost willing to go to NYC City Hall, chain myself to the door, & go on a hunger strike to stop this. WTAF. Has everyone gone mad?Jefferson was a flawed human being, but his words are among the most inspiring, liberating, & consequential ever written.

You know who predicted this? Trump. Way back in 2017, when the left was working so hard to remove a Confederate statue, Trump knew exactly where this was headed next.  "And when he said it, the media scoffed at him.  '

"Governor Gavin Newsom signed laws governing ketchup packets, condom use and outlawing gender marketing on children's toys. There's nothing like more regulations to halt the statewide exodus.

George Soros Drops $1M To Stop City of Austin Hiring Police to Combat Rising Crime

George Soros is not more powerful than this nation; but George Soros together with the Democrat Party are. TD

 Legal Insurrection

On Nov. 2, Austin voters will decide on a ballot initiative requiring the hiring of two officers per 1K residents

"America-hating billionaire George Soros is stepping up his efforts to personally increase the violent crime rate in America’s cities. Not content to just sponsor pro-crime DA’s who release and/or fail to prosecute criminals, Soros is now pouring money into defund the police efforts.

"As cities, some of them on the down low, have been refunding police they previously defunded or are increasing hiring due to police forces being decimated by low morale fueled by lack of local support, ridiculous pro-crime policies, and various WuFlu-related mandates, Soros is busily shelling out money to keep crime up, criminals on the streets, and fewer police to keep communities safe.

"His latest target is reportedly Austin, Texas. Last year, Austin gleefully leapt on the defund the police bandwagon and cut its police budget by nearly a third. “Unexpectedly,” violent crime skyrocketed to the point that the city recently told citizens not to call 911 unless they really really needed to.

"The Wall Street Journal reported last week:

Beginning this month, the Austin Police Department has asked the public not to call 911 for “non-emergency situations” if “there is no immediate threat to life or property,” “where crimes are no longer in progress,” and “when the suspect(s) are no longer on scene or in sight.” The directive applies to burglaries, thefts, prostitution, vandalism, and several other crimes. The police urged victims and witnesses to call 311 or file a report online instead.  . . .

John Durham Dissects a Smear Campaign

There’s much more to this tale of the most successful and destructive political smear in American history. So stay tuned for the next exciting episode of “John Durham Blows Up Washington.”

 The American Spectator

This is proof of overt acts and statements made in furtherance of the illegal but thus-far uncharged conspiracy.

" 'This is is the third in a series of articles analyzing the 27-page federal grand jury indictment charging lawyer Michael Sussmann with making a false statement to the FBI. The second article analyzed the indictment’s detailed factual averments that spelled out how Sussmann and others conspired to concoct a false but “plausible” narrative purportedly demonstrating the existence of a secret channel of internet communications between the Trump Organization, owned by Donald Trump, and the Russian Alfa Bank. The article ended at the point where Sussmann was about to meet with James Baker, the general counsel of the FBI.

"At the meeting, Sussmann allegedly delivered to Baker deceptive “white papers,” documents and computer data that were calculated to trigger an FBI investigation of the purported Trump-Alfa Bank connection. According to the indictment, once the FBI began its investigation, Sussmann, the top echelon of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign (“Clinton Campaign”) and others publicized the fact that the FBI was investigating possible ties between Trump and Russia.

"Moreover, the indictment also avers that, even before his September 19, 2016, meeting with Baker, Sussmann disseminated the fabricated Trump-Alfa Bank narrative to the media. Quoting billing records and emails from Sussmann’s law firm (“Perkins Coie” which represented the Clinton Campaign), the indictment gives the following examples of how the smear was spread: . . ."

Chicago art institute fires all of its volunteer museum guides because most were wealthy white women: report

 The Post-Millennial

"On Friday, it was reported that in early September, the Art Institute of Chicago fired all of its docents, or trained volunteer museum guides and greeters, for being "mostly older white women of above-average financial means."

"According to the Wall Street Journal, on Sept. 3, Veronica Stein, an executive director of learning and engagement at the museum, sent an email to the more than 100 docents the museum has, firing all of them.

"In gratitude for their long, unpaid service—averaging 15 years each—the Art Institute offered the involuntarily retired guides a two-year free pass to the museum," wrote the Wall Street Journal.

"According to the Wall Street Journal, Stein said that the museum needs to move "in a way that allows community members of all income levels to participate, responds to issues of class and income equity, and does not require financial flexibility," reportedly pointing to the predominantly white and above-average financial means of the museum guides as an issue.

"A museum docent is a guide who serves as an educator who brings people on tours of the museums' artworks, giving details into the works and the artists' backgrounds. The position is usually a volunteer one."...

Joe's Man in Washington, Buttigieg: The Weak Link In The Supply Chain

 

Transportation sec. Buttigieg: Supply chain disruptions will continue into next year, but he'll be flying off to UN Climate Conference in Europe 

You can watch the entire CNN interview here.  But it was on NBC's Meet the Press that Buttigieg really outdid himself with meaningless bureaucrat-speak.  Sundance at The Last Refuge spotted it and transcribed some of it:

Biden's choice,  Buttigieg: The Weak Link In The Supply Chain  . . ."When asked on CNBC why the administration waited so long to take action, Buttigieg responded that “we’ve been working this issue from day one”.

"Well, not exactly.

"As Politico reported, Buttigieg was “mostly offline” starting in mid-August, and only went on a media blitz after Politico disclosed the fact that he’d been on an unannounced leave." . . .
