If a Kid is Mature Enough to Choose a Gender, They can vote

 PJ Media

"Transgender activists have gone to war over five-year-old children having the right to make momentous, irreversible choices that will affect how they see themselves and how others see them for the next 75 or 80 years.

"The activists want to be able to lobby babies to change their gender.

"On most other planets and in many universes, this would be grounds for commitment. In America, in the 21st century, it’s celebrated.

"Monumental decisions on gender choice should not be in the hands of children who are, by definition, confused about their gender. Nor should it be in the hands of parents who — conscientious as they may think they are — subtly influence their children to believe they have the ability to choose their own gender. And given that many doctors are on a gender-bending crusade rather than being concerned with a child’s health and best interest, input from a doctor should always be suspect.". . .

Rittenhouse to Sue Whoopi Goldberg, Other 'Celebrities, Politicians and Athletes'

Teen announces lawsuit against those who called him 'murderer' and 'white supremacist'

"Kyle Rittenhouse has put Whoopi Goldberg and several other leftist "celebrities, politicians, and athletes" on notice by announcing his plans to sue them for labeling him a "murderer."

""During an appearance on Fox News's "Tucker Carlson Tonight" on Monday, Rittenhouse announced he is launching a new initiative to combat powerful news organizations for the "lies" they spew.

""Last November, the 18-year-old was found not guilty following the deadly shooting during the 2020 Kenosha riots after a jury determined he acted in self-defense while being attacked by a violent mob of rioters.

""However, Goldberg and several prominent left-wing figures publically smeared Rittenhouse as a "murderer" and a "white supremacist" before during, and even after his trial.

" 'Rittenhouse told Carlson that he wants to hold major media and entertainment figures "accountable," noting that he has talk show host Goldberg in his sights.

""We are looking at quite a few politicians, celebrities, athletes, Whoopi Goldberg is on the list," Rittenhouse said." . . .

Progressivism and the History of Communist Thought

 Our 1776 Moment: Either a Liberal or Progressive America › American Greatness)   

. . ."The ideology of progressivism is now predominant in contemporary American left-wing politics. A symptom of our “1776 Moment” is that the Democrats, once stalwart liberals, have become progressives, which means, in fact, they have become socialists. Progressivism’s origins are found in the thought of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Marx and Engels argued that as technology changed so too did the economic means of production. The means of production creates specific economic classes. In each epoch—slavery, feudalism, and capitalism—the classes were perpetually and dialectically opposed to one another. 

"Under capitalism, the bourgeoisie, or the middle class, owned the means of production and exploited the proletariat, the working class, by extracting surplus value from their labor. For Marx and Engels, the capitalists would always strive to maximize surplus value, which causes accumulation of capital and ever-greater exploitation of the working class, until ultimately the working class overthrows the capitalists. This would then result in the common ownership of the means of production, and thus class would disappear, resulting in communism, the abolition of private property, and the end of alienation. Under communism, the state would no longer be necessary and would wither away. 

"Bolshevik leader Vladimir Lenin argued that imperialism allowed the capitalists to extract surplus value from colonial peoples. This transfer of exploitation permitted modest improvements in the conditions of the working class in the developed states like Great Britain, France, Germany, and the United States, forestalling alienation and thus delaying the communist revolution. The responsibility of the international communist movement was to increase revolutionary consciousness among the working class and provoke revolution by seizing control of the state—that is revolution from above via the Communist Party versus a revolution from below driven by the working class as Marx and Engels envisioned. In order for the dictatorship of the proletariat to come to power, there must be a hard core of professional revolutionaries—a revolutionary elite—to advance communism through a centralized, organized, stable, and disciplined cadre, controlled by one man, or at most a small number of men, while providing leadership, instruction, and tutelage for the workers.". . .

‘Has the world forgotten its mistakes of the 20th century?’ asks Volodymyr Zelenskiy as invasion looms 

. . .“'What do appeasement attempts lead to? How did the question ‘Why die for Danzig ?’ [a French anti-war slogan coined in 1939] turn into the need to die for Dunkirk and dozens of other cities in Europe and the world, at the cost of tens of millions of lives?”

"He then twisted the knife by saying there was no threat of war in Europe – the war was already under way: “How did it happen that there is a war ongoing and people are dying in Europe in the 21st century? Why does it last longer than World War II? How did we get to the biggest security crisis since the cold war?”

"Zelenskiy had answers that the doting western security establishment might not have applauded so vociferously if they listened harder to his withering attack on their collective failure. He blamed “selfishness, self-confidence, irresponsibility of countries at the global level. As a result, some commit crimes, and others stay indifferent. Indifference that results in complicity. This is your contribution to the security of Europe and the world.”

"He said: “Ukraine has been Europe’s shield for eight years. For eight years, it has been holding back one of the largest armies in the world.” Yet the door to the EU and Nato had not been opened. The promises to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty enshrined in the Budapest memorandum in 1994 seemed worthless.". . .

On the very eve of the day when I was about to attempt a supreme effort in the defense of my people before this Assembly does not this initiative deprive Ethiopia of one of her last chances to succeed in obtaining the support and guarantee of States Members? Is that the guidance the League of Nations and each of the States Members are entitled to expect from the great Powers when they assert their right and their duty to guide the action of the League?

The West needs to understand his imperialist aims. Putin's gives chilling warning to the West in early morning TV broadcast; meanwhile here in the states...

Daily Mail Online  "Russian President Vladimir Putin declared war on Ukraine and gave a chilling warning to its allies in the West in an early Thursday morning address in Moscow.

"Explosions were heard in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital, as Putin announced that Russia was launching a military attack on Ukraine.

" 'To anyone who would consider interfering from the outside - if you do, you will face consequences greater than any you have faced in history,’ he said on a television broadcast around 6am Moscow time.". . .

. . ." 'If indeed an operation is being prepared, I have only one thing to say from the bottom of my heart,' said Guterres. 

" 'President Putin, stop your troops from attacking Ukraine. Give peace a chance. Too many people have already died.' 

"Putin ignored the plea, going on TV to describe the invasion as a ‘special military occupation’ and said he wants to 'demilitarize' and 'de-Nazify', not occupy, the country.

"He told Ukrainian service members to 'lay down their arms and go home,’ saying Russia could not exist with a 'constant threat emanating from the territory of Ukraine' and clashes between Russian and Ukrainian solders was 'inevitable.’ ". . .

What time is Joe Biden press conference on Russia war in Ukraine? (statesman.com)

Bombs rain down on Kiev, America gets ready for Putin's wrath, and Hunter Biden enjoys his money - American Thinker  . . ."The West is talking about the whole thing as if it's an attack on NATO, but acting like this is only Ukraine's problem, not their own.  Putin has made threatening noises to Poland and the Baltics.  Finland has signaled that it now wants to apply for NATO membership.  It doesn't seem as though it's all going to end with Kiev.  And Putin was very, very specific about what would happen to the West if it tried to stop Russia from taking Ukraine: "Whoever tries to interfere with us, and even more so, to create threats for our country, for our people, should know that Russia's response will be immediate and will lead you to such consequences that you have never experienced in your history."  There may be more to this than just Ukraine.  High oil prices for America and electrical power grid attacks may be in the works for us.  And it may well be that Putin is talking nukes.

"What was at the root of Germany's opposition to NATO membership for Ukraine?

"That Ukraine was just too corrupt to be allowed into the alliance.". . .

 . .".So Hunter Biden's need to take baksheesh undercut U.S. security interests, left Ukraine a corruption-soaked mess unfit for NATO membership, and opened the gates wide for Russia to move in on Ukraine.  Ukraine was too corrupt to be a member of NATO, yet Western interests were knee-deep in perpetrating that corruption and reaping big dollars for themselves.". . .  (Emphasis mine, TD)

The Dangerous Reason Behind Putin’s Aggression Against Ukraine - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  "Among collectivist narratives, none is more powerful than nationalism, and among imperial claims, none is more devastating to peaceful coexistence than the idea that a neighboring country belongs to an imperialist predator, based on a foundational myth.

WAR—With a Weakling in the Oval Office, Putin Does What He Wants

American liberals will no doubt say that the blithering idiot in the Oval Office had nothing to to with Putin’s flex.

As we discussed yesterday, when the resident of the White House is a weak leftist, the bad people in the world tend to have a field day.

 Russia Ukraine crisis: Does the Nazi invasion of Poland is indeed similar? | Marca

In a public address, Putin called Ukraine "a colony" that is oppressing Russian speakers. Putin questioned the legitimacy of his leader -who was elected democratically-.  In 1939, Hitler claimed the Sudetenland territory at the Munich Conference. Western leaders, including Neville Chamberlain, agreed to annex the territories in exchange for peace. Germany celebrated the resolution by sending the troops into the territory as a parade.

. . ."Of course, Biden's threat that there would be "severe sanctions" if Russia invaded Ukraine probably has no effect on Putin. When the latter seized Crimea, the Obama-Biden administration threatened severe sanctions and nothing seemed to hurt Russia much. More recently, at a time when Biden's war on American energy has raised the price of oil and forced the president to beg Russia and Saudi Arabia to increase production to lower the price, Putin must be reveling in the absurd distance between Biden's words and Biden's actions.". . .

They have proven themselves unfit to be a free people and are happy to slide into serfdom.

Another threat to “our democracy,” as Leftists in both Canada and the United States refer to their hegemony, is just around the corner. NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh claimed Monday that the Freedom Convoy “came here to overthrow a democratically elected government. It is a movement funded by foreign influence, and it is fed on disinformation. Its goal is to disrupt our democracy.”

"If that reminds you of the Democrats’ rhetoric about their fictional Jan. 6 “insurrection,” that’s because Canada’s Liberals and the Democrats in the States are working from the same playbook: demonize their opposition as insurrectionists and restrict their activities accordingly.".  . .

Jesse Owens salutes - and does not burn - his nation's flag. One of the four Olympic gold medals won by track
and field star Jesse Owens at the 1936 Berlin Games. There's a lesson here if we can see it. Owens poses with German medalist Luz Long

History.com  "Hitler used the Olympics as the perfect opportunity to demonstrate the prowess of the Third Reich and these Olympics were the first ever to be televised, with radio broadcasts reaching 41 different countries around the world. Hitler’s Nazi regime built a brand new, state-of-the-art 100,000-seat track and field stadium, six gymnasiums, and many other smaller arenas.

"Originally, Hitler wanted to bar Jews and blacks from competing in the games, but after some backlash and threats of boycott, international Jews were allowed to compete. German Jews remained banned and many nations, including the U.S., did not allow their Jewish athletes to compete as to not offend the Nazi regime.

"In an attempt to help ˜clean up the city,’ the German Ministry of the Interior authorized the Berlin Chief of Police to arrest all Romani Gypsies and put them in the Berlin-Marzahn concentration camp. The Nazis arrested over 600 people and imprisoned them. Those deemed fit were forced to work. The rest were killed.

"During the opening ceremony, there was a moment in which the Olympic Committee released 25,000 pigeons, who flew overhead, circling the stadium. Following the release of the birds, there was a symbolic cannon shot which, quite literally, scared the excrement out of the pigeons. It rained down all over the stadium. As remembered by U.S. distance runner Louis Zamperini, “you could hear the pitter-patter on our straw hats, but we felt sorry for the women, for they got it in their hair, but I mean there was a mass of droppings, and I say it was so funny”. . .  More...

President Biden Just Told a Monster Whopper That Both Sides Missed

RealClearMarkets  "Last week President Biden asserted in rather eye-opening fashion that he "grew up in a family where the price at the pump was felt in the kitchen.” Except that President Biden didn’t grow up in a family burdened by gasoline price spikes, and not just because he’s long overstated the humble circumstances he emerged from.

"Biden didn’t endure food shortages related to pricey gasoline simply because he was born in 1942. When Biden was growing up, the price of gasoline was flat. And it was cheap. Please see the charts at the bottom of this piece if you doubt me.

"While gasoline is abnormally expensive now, these spikes never happened during Biden’s childhood, and as the charts make clear, they weren’t a factor for the President until he was in his early thirties, at which point he was on the verge of winning a seat in the U.S. Senate. What Biden claims about his childhood is false. Simple as that.

"Too bad no one’s called him on it. And not just because politicians should have their fibs exposed. Pundits should hold Biden accountable for uttering a blatant falsehood simply because doing so would be a “teachable moment” extraordinaire.". . .
