School Board Members Try To Walk Out On Bosnian Immigrant Warning Against Tyranny; He Continues To Standing Ovation

 The Daily Wire

"I'm telling you, if you do not stop complying, you will lose everything that you have. Stop complying."


"At least two school board members from a district in Illinois attempted to walk out on a Bosnian immigrant speaking against the district’s decision to keep in place a mask mandate for students and staff, despite a recent ruling from an Illinois circuit judge approving a temporary restraining order on the policy.

"The man, an immigrant from Bosnia, was speaking about his family’s experience fleeing genocide for America. While he was warning about creeping authoritarianism, which he said started with a clamp down on speech, video shows commotion among parents and the board.

"According to Daily Wire reporter Virginia Kruta, who has children in the district and attended the meeting; video evidence; and local reporting, two school board members got up to leave the meeting, allegedly to cut off the father and start a “closed session.” After parents erupted, the school board president reportedly told the board members to sit back down.". . .

Ex-Border Patrol Agent: Under Trump, We Felt Support; Under Biden, We Don’t…

 Weasel Zippers


Can the Border Patrol survive Joe Biden? (washingtonexaminer.com)  . . ."Border Patrol agents broke protocol to claim in interviews with the Washington Examiner that their jobs have been remade since President Joe Biden took office a year ago. They say that they have been redirected from fulfilling a law enforcement and national security role to working as though they were in an Ellis Island-style welcome center.
"Four of the agents agreed to speak anonymously about their concerns even though doing so risks termination. The rising frustration among agents has also manifested in leaked videos of the rank and file in angry confrontations with leadership in recent private meetings.
"Still other agents have had enough and have quit the agency, anticipating that matters won't change in the next three years.
"The century-old mission"
"Congress created the Border Patrol in 1924 for the purpose of securing land and sea borders." . . .

"U.S. Border Patrol agents are arresting border crossers like never before and are preparing for an even bigger surge.
"Data from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) show agents made 1.7 million arrests during the 2021 fiscal year that runs from Oct. 1 though Sept. 30.
"Another half million arrests were made through the end of December, and experts think the record number of border crossers will continue this year.
"That has prompted Republicans to accuse Democratic President Joe Biden of opening the gates of our southern border and allowing “an invasion” of foreign criminals ready to harm America or take up jobs.
"But hardly anyone is splashing the second part of the numbers equation:
Most border crossers are being expelled under a policy known as Title 42.
“Border encounters” aren’t unique people. Many are actually repeat offenders who essentially turn around and try again after being expelled.. . .

Chris Wallace 'Irate,' 'Second Guessing' Move to CNN Amid Zucker Flap

  Newsmax.com

"It's no secret in D.C. that Wallace hates Jake Tapper and despises Sam Feist," the source continued about two other top CNN figures. . ."


"Chris Wallace left Fox News to join CNN under president Jeff Zucker, and now Wallace is reportedly left "irate" about CNN's unraveling before his new streaming venture has taken shape.

" 'Chris is the type of person who makes it known if he doesn't like something," a source told Radar. "He went over there for Zucker and now Zucker is gone.

" 'Wallace feels that he has been stiffed. He's got no staff, no Executive Producer and the guy he gave up a prized gig for has just walked out the door."

"Despite reportedly making between $8-$10 million, Wallace is now "second guessing his decision" after Zucker's resignation over a consensual relationship with a fellow CNN employee Allison Gollust." . . .

Never-Trump Conservatives Who Left FOX News Over ‘Principles’ Take Jobs At NBC News And CNN

Never-Trump Conservatives Who Left FOX News Over 'Principles' Take Jobs At NBC News And CNN (americanlookout.com)    "Back in November, the never-Trump conservatives Steve Hayes and Jonah Goldberg made a big fuss about leaving FOX News.

"According to them, it was all about principles. They couldn’t stay at FOX News, after the network allowed Tucker Carlson to make a documentary questioning the official narrative about January 6th.

"And now both of them have been hired by left wing garbage networks.

"Steve Hayes joined NBC News.". . .

"And Jonah Goldberg has now joined CNN."  Jonah Goldberg, one of the two conservative political analysts who resigned from Fox News Channel in colorful fashion over the direction of its coverage, is joining CNN as a contributor, the WarnerMedia network confirmed Monday.

"Goldberg, a longtime editor at National Review and a founder of The Dispatch, will appear on CNN programs as news networks gear up for the 2022 midterm elections. He and another popular conservative commentator, Stephen Hayes, took to the “Media Equation” column of The New York Times in November to say they were cutting ties with Fox News Channel, where they had been contributors since 2009.

"But it’s all about principles, right?

"Hayes now works for the same network as Joy Reid and Al Sharpton.

"Jonah Goldberg now works for the network of Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo.

"So deeply conservative and principled."

BUYER'S REMORSE? Chris Wallace Reportedly 'Irate' Over CNN Scandal And Already At War With Jake Tapper (americanlookout.com)

Look with dawning horror at the presidential line of succession -

 As old, decrepit, and heavily-surgerized as Pelosi is, there's no guarantee she'd be able to finish Biden's four-year term in office.  In the unlikely event that Biden, Harris, and Pelosi all get knocked out of the game, who's left in the bullpen?

American Thinker  "In Major League Baseball, starting pitchers get plenty of press, all the glory, and the really big bucks.  But true aficionados of the sport know that a team is only as good as its bullpen, a collection of lesser-known pitchers who are called upon when the starting pitcher runs out of gas.

"When it comes to the U.S. government, who's our big stud starting pitcher?  Why, that would be "Clueless Joe" Biden, the crusty old conniver who turns eighty in November.

"Clueless Joe may have once had a political fastball and the ability to put it where he wanted.  But as he turns eighty, Joe Biden's physically and mentally shot.  All he serves up now is slop.  Even the lying left-wing media are starting to admit what's been patently obvious to anyone with a working cerebrum: clueless Joe has run out of gas.

"It's only a matter of time before America has to make that call to the bullpen.  And whom do we have warming up in the bullpen, you ask?

"Why, that would be the crafty leftie from California, "Heels Up" Harris.  Harris earned her moniker by being Willie Brown's side piece as she, um, climbed the ladder of political success.

"As California's deputy attorney general, Heels Up sent hundreds of blacks to prison for marijuana offenses.  But years later, when the political winds had changed, Harris laughed off her prior actions.". . .

UPDATED, Feb 8th: An Obama photograph proves the lies of 'climate change' and COVID

The Cult of Climate Change tells us that, unless we abandon all fossil fuels, the oceans will rise and every coastal community will be destroyed.  When Obama bought his coastal Martha's Vineyard house, it was pretty clear that he didn't believe a word of this narrative. 

 Andrea Widburg   "The left is built upon a mountain of falsehoods.  Two of the biggest are that humankind is trembling on the brink of destruction because of "climate change" and that onerous COVID restrictions are the only things keeping us alive.  So what are we to make of an unmasked Obama standing around construction workers, very grumpy about work on his multimillion-dollar beachfront Hawaiian mansion?  What I make of it is that both "climate change" and COVID restrictions are huge parts of that mountain of lies.

"Here's the picture that is a microcosm of all the lies:"

UK Daily Mail: Scowling Barack Obama inspects the construction of his new multimillion-dollar Hawaii mansion trib.al/0LI9ryt

UPDATE, Feb 8th: Oh, the words that come to mind from the 'mean construction Obama' photo - American Thinker   . . ."This luxurious mansion under construction in Hawaii is Obama's third that I'm aware of, and second oceanfront property!  There are only possibilities here.  Obama either thinks he actually did calm the oceans, or he knew all along that climate change is merely a useful device for controlling the naïve, the neurotic, the weak-minded.  "Democrat voters, in other words."

. . .Back to the photo.  Who's the only one not wearing a face mask?

 That's right: The One.  Barry doesn't need no stinkin' mask; he knows that much of the Big Government response to COVID-19 was intended merely to intimidate and subdue the masses.  See change, climate.

Obama's clearly unafraid of the Wuhan Flu but likes those who serve him to be masked.  It's a class thing.  Those four schmoes are beneath the former president and hence must cover their pie-holes.  Barry, as befitting his celebrity status, needn't bother.

Thanks, Whoopi! Why Holocaust Education Is Mostly Counter-Productive

Although she is a fool in the way she processes facts, [(“Whoopi Goldberg”)] is intelligent and absorbs a wide variety of information. Her job of many years at The View requires her to be well read and able to discuss all kinds of issues. Yet she still knows absolutely nothing about the Holocaust after all these years. . .

By @DovFischerRabbi.

For one thing, fifty years of Holocaust education has not brought young Jews closer to Judaism.

"Really, as one thinks about it, could it be any other way? If you take kids from age 7 or 10, and you don’t give them Chumash (Torah studies) or meaningful real Shabbat (Sabbath) or a kosher home or meaningful substantive history of modern Israel … and the only Jewish

identity you give them is a narrative about terrible people who slaughtered 6 million of their forebears … and those forebears did not fight back and no one helped … and the same thing has gone on for 2,000 years of getting murdered by miserable people while no one comes to help …
"Well, how in the world will that inspire kids to say, “When I grow up, I want to marry a Jewish spouse, even if I meet someone else who seems more compatible, because I want to hand this legacy of victimization and martyrdom to my future generations”?
"So a fortune is spent by American Jewish secular organizations on museums, school curricula, and Holocaust centers, while the assimilated Jewish leaders of the ADLs and Federations avoid confronting that they are not themselves suited for their roles and are failing their future generations. Before they know what hit them, they are coming to rabbis like me, begging rabbis to convert the non-Jews marrying their kids. We meet with those non-Jewish prospective spouses and find they are sweet and delightful enough but, really, don’t want to convert, are happy as they are. “Rabbi,” they tell us, “I don’t believe in the Torah. I don’t believe in Jesus either. I don’t believe in G-d. I just believe in love.”

What American Woke Cancel Culture Has Taught Me About Nazi Germany

 Education News

Many are cautious to risk their well-being for others

"Most people mean well, fear losing the jobs and income by which they support their families, and are terrified they will lose friends and social standing. This is true equally of “Good Germans,” nice Jews, and average Americans desperately trying to survive today’s Leftist Woke “cancel culture” reign of terror. To find heroes whose words and deeds withstand that fear — well, that’s why heroes are outlier and few.

"As I grew into adolescence, it initially was hard to understand “Good Germans” of the Hitler years who did not stand up to the Nazis, but instead quietly accommodated themselves to the Holocaust. They saw what was happening and yet remained docile. Yes, there were the precious few heroes who actually imperiled their own lives by hiding Jews in their homes — in attics, basements, under floor boards. However, the very best among the rest tended simply to look away as Jews were trucked off to ghettoes in preparation for cattle-car journeys to death camps. The best of those “Good Germans” turned aside and did not lay hands on their Jewish neighbors’ pianos, chandeliers, and art work left behind, but they also did not lift a finger to help.

"Was it genetic? Had centuries of anti-Jewish eruptions throughout Europe — murderous crusades along the Rhine from the 11th to 13th centuries, “poisoning the well” defamations of the mid-14th century Black Death bubonic plague era, blood libels, desecration-of-the host slanders, expulsions and inquisitions, Cossack pogroms, and all that transpired into the Hitlerian 20th century — biologically changed German, Ukrainian, and other European spiritual DNA? As a teenage boy, I wondered. However, in later years I met a man of the American Midwest and of German descent, an attorney for whom I worked at Jones Day when I litigated complex multi-million-dollar matters, and he became one of the best friends I have had. He is a man of extraordinary character whose friendship I have cherished throughout the past quarter century.". . .  More...

America’s crime spike goes much deeper than policing or the lack of it

We’ve had only one honorable man serve as President of the United States in this century. This honorable quality so offended the Washington swamp people that they ginned up a hoax accusing him of treason, impeached him twice, and allowed him to be cheated out of his second term in office because he wasn’t one of them.

 American Thinker  "There’s a spike in crime right now in the United States and the only thing that surprises me about that is that nobody expected it. The right says there’s not enough support for law enforcement. The left claims it’s because of systematic racism. Tucker Carlson says it’s due to left-wing policies in Democrat-run cities. I agree with almost everything Tucker says, but not this one.". . .

Toon added by TD

. . ."Joe Biden is a known liar and plagiarist. The only reason that I’m not calling him a criminal is because he hasn’t been convicted for the crimes that we all know he’s committed. People need to wake up and smell the swamp. You can’t steal right in front of your kids and then expect them to be law-abiding citizens when they grow up. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out.

"How did Nancy Pelosi get as wealthy as she is on a public servant’s salary? We’re not stupid. If the people that run this country cannot manage to follow the law, then why should anyone else?"...

Crime is spiking because the American people are becoming as morally bankrupt as the politicians in our government...

Schadenfreude overload: Chris Wallace joined CNN+ because Jeff Zucker would be his protector there, now reportedly ‘irate’ at his departure

 Thomas Lifson

. . .

At the time, the former Fox News Sunday anchor specifically cited Zucker as one of the reasons he joined the network.

“I am honored and delighted to join Jeff Zucker and his great team,” Wallace gushed in a statement just two hours after he quit Fox on December 12.

"That “team” bloviation obscures the reality of the snake pit nature of TV news, especially at a failing operation like CNN. Wallace has got to be worried about the long knives and his ample back at his new employer that looks like it is about to clean house. Notably, there are no reports of him bringing any staff with him from Fox, and his old support staff at Fox News Sunday must be popping champagne corks with the new ratings they enjoy with Shannon Bream helming the broadcast. For what it is worth, her colleagues at the Fox News Washington Bureau refer to Shannon on-air as "the nicest person in the building" -- which is consistent with her on-air persona.

"Wallace is very unhappy, according to Radar."

Justice? BLM Rioter Gets Probation For Setting Fire to a High School

 

PJ Media   "A 20-year old man convicted of setting a fire at a high school during the Black Lives Matter riots in 2020 in Minnesota received probation and was fined $34,000.

"Judge David S. Doty, appointed by Ronald Reagan, didn’t comment on why he only gave a terrorist probation, but court documents show that he was constrained by the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984.

"Mohamed Hussein Abdi pled guilty to conspiracy to commit arson, according to court documents obtained by Fox News.

New York Post:

Abdi was arrested in June 2020, a month after he entered the high school through a broken glass door during the Floyd riot and could be seen on security footage pouring liquid from a white container onto the floor and then into a trashcan. Abdi then took a liquid-soaked garment and sent fire to the trash can before running away as flames and smoke began to spread.

It has been estimated that rioting across the nation following Floyd’s death destroyed over $1 billion worth of property.

More than 1,500 businesses in the Minneapolis St. Paul area were damaged or destroyed during the riots totaling roughly $500 million in damages.

"Abdi was an accomplice to the arson fire, which was set by Jose Angel Felan, who also torched a Goodwill store and a 7 Mile Sportswear store. He pled “not guilty” in April and is awaiting trial. Felan’s wife, Mena Dhaya Yousif, was charged with being an accessory after the fact when she assisted her husband in his escape to Mexico.". . .

Afro-Idealism in Black History Month and January 6 - American Thinker  . . ."The killing of police officers in large numbers in the United States is a direct result of false teaching and education about African-American history in the United States.  Black History Month must become a renaissance of black voices that honestly and boldly represent the best hopes of the nation.  In failing to tend to and recover this more accurate and humane history, we will continue on a path of dangerous partisan violence.  This fuller truth including afro-idealism will set us free.". . .
