Obama called in to clean up after Joe Biden - American Thinker   . . ."Obama remains a popular figure within the Democratic Party, while Biden faces low public approval ratings thanks in part to high inflation and the lingering COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, Democrats face the risk of losing control of at least one if not both chambers of Congress in November, which would bring Biden's legislative agenda to a halt.

"The Biden administration will unveil a measure on Tuesday to fix an element of the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, known as the "family glitch" that left family members of those with access to affordable employer-provided health plans ineligible for certain subsidies.". . .

Why would Joe be inviting Obama over to claim credit for that rare "accomplishment" that Joe can call his own?  Politicians don't work like that.

The claims to warmth and friendship are even more suspect, given Obama's known contempt for the clownish, senile Biden.

"Don't underestimate Joe's ability to f--- things up."

"You don't have to do this, Joe..."

Recall also that Biden had to beg Obama to call him "Mr. Vice President," given the contemptuous nicknames Obama was flinging around to staff early in Obama's term.

Obama refused to endorse Biden for president until it was impossible not to, way late in the campaign, and he never went out campaigning with his basement-dwelling best buddy.". . .

‘It’s Illegal to Kill People’: Twitter Explains to David Hogg Why His Human-Killing License Idea is Bad

Go home and grow up, David. Maybe then your friends at CNN will take you more seriously than you think they do now, 

 David Hogg's Idea for Murder Licensing Not a Hit on Twitter (mediaite.com) "In a Saturday tweet, anti-gun activist David Hogg seems to have come up with a new plot twist on the often retold plot of “The Most Dangerous Game”, the 1924 short story about a man hunting human beings that has spawned movies and copycat stories for decades.

“If you need a license to kill deer why don’t you need one to kill humans?” asked Hogg in his tweet.". . . 

Jonah Goldberg tweeted: I'll type slowly so you can keep up. Because we don't give out licenses to kill humans. We charge people who intentionally kill humans -- save in self-defense -- with committing a crime (in some cases punishable by death). Maybe you've seen too many James Bond movies?

U.S. Supreme Court nominee Jackson secures more Republican backers, clears hurdle

 Without reading this article, tell me who the Republicans are. C'mom, you can do it. TD

U.S. Supreme Court nominee Jackson secures more Republican backers, clears hurdle | Reuters  WASHINGTON, April 4 (Reuters) - U.S. Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson secured the support of two more Senate Republicans on Monday, as she cleared a procedural hurdle toward becoming the first Black woman to serve on the nation's top judicial body.

"Republicans Lisa Murkowski and Mitt Romney joined Susan Collins in saying they would vote to confirm Jackson, 51, to a lifetime seat on the court later this week. They also supported a procedural 53-47 vote to bring her nomination to the Senate floor after the Senate Judiciary Committee deadlocked 11-11 along party lines on whether to advance the nomination.

"Murkowski and Romney, who do not serve on the Judiciary Committee, announced their backing of Jackson as the Senate began voting to "discharge" the nomination from the panel, propelling it to the full Senate.

"Their endorsement came after Collins last week became the first Republican senator to announce her support for Jackson. read more". . .

What Conservatives Found Peculiar About Mitt Romney's Decision on Ketanji Brown Jackson (townhall.com)

. . ."It's always those three—always. When it comes time for Republicans to unite, they will find some reason to stab us in the back. The Romney hate erupted within the ranks of the conservative base and for good reason. Not only did Romney stab us in the back, but he had also previously voted against Judge Jackson for her lower court appointment. She’s not qualified for the appeals court, but she’s a-okay for the Supreme Court. That’s the anti-Trump GOP for you, everyone. Luckily, they’re a breed that’s rapidly approaching extinction.

. . . And if these three were to not ever hold their offices again, the Senate Republicans would be infinitely better off. Matt Vespa

Comment to this post:  "Collins shouldn’t be compared to Romney and Murkowski.

School Nurse Blows Whistle: Woke Teachers Giving Kids 'Puberty Blockers' in 'Secret'

 Neon Nettle  

Leslie Torres-Rodriguez, Superintendent of Hartford Public Schools, said in a Monday letter that the nurse's "inappropriate" comments about LGBTQ students in the district were posted in a Facebook group, and they "described private and personal details about a specific student."

However, the Daily Mail unearthed the nurse's post, and no student is named in it.

"A school nurse has blown the whistle to reveal that "woke" teachers and school officials are drugging "transgender" children with "puberty blockers" and keeping it "secret" from their parents.

"Kathleen Cataford, 77, was suspended by Hartford Public Schools School in Connecticut after she posted comments revealing that teachers are encouraging kids to "transition" to a new gender and keep it hidden from their families.

"Cataford, who worked at the Richard J Kinsella Magnet School in Hartford, was axed from her role Monday over the explosive Facebook post, which was branded "transphobic."

"The post exposed an incident involving an unnamed 11-year-old girl on "puberty blockers."

"She also revealed that many students are encouraged to "identify" as "non-binary" while at school.

"Cataford said most of the parents have no idea what is happening with their children due to students and school staff keeping it a "secret" from them."

DeSantis vs Disney Is the Fight America Needs Right Now

 DeSantis vs Disney Is the Fight America Needs Right Now – PJ Media

. . ."t’s not just that Disney is, sadly, taking the woke route, it’s that the company is so wrong on this issue. The woke plague has been infecting corporate America badly for a couple of years but to see a company that was built on wholesome family fun go all-in on talking to 7-year-olds about sex is really disheartening. It’s also perfectly indicative of why we need to push back harder.

"Thankfully, they’ve picked a fight with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, and those haven’t really been working out well for the left.

"DeSantis rarely shows up to these conflicts unprepared and he does have an interesting arrow in his quiver, which Chris wrote about in another post:

On Friday, my PJ Media colleague Rick Moran wrote that DeSantis and other GOP legislators in the Sunshine State have mused about repealing the legislation that gave Disney its own governmental authority over the Walt Disney Word property over 50 years ago.

I predicted that this could be a nuclear option for DeSantis last month when I wrote, “If Disney did criticize Florida too harshly, the state could play hardball and threaten to revoke the legislation that created the company’s special quasi-governmental designation, the Reedy Creek Improvement District, which allows the company to operate with less interference from the state and county governments.”

"If DeSantis and Florida can get Disney to blink, it would be a major victory. Even if it doesn’t work out that way, however, this is an important battle that needs to play out in a very public way. It’s bad enough that the Democrats and the media have been lying about the Florida bill; Disney’s participation in the debate has lent credibility to the lie. As I and many others have written recently, we cannot let the left’s crusade to sexualize kindergarteners stand. They’re lying makes it even more creepy.". . .

Ukraine accuses Russia of massacre, city strewn with bodies

 Ukraine accuses Russia of massacre, city strewn with bodies (yahoo.com)

BUCHA, Ukraine — Bodies with bound hands, close-range gunshot wounds and signs of torture lay scattered in a city on the outskirts of Kyiv after Russian soldiers withdrew from the area. Ukrainian authorities on Sunday accused the departing forces of committing war crimes and leaving behind a “scene from a horror movie.”

As images of the bodies — of people whom residents said were killed indiscriminately — began to emerge from Bucha, a slew of European leaders condemned the atrocities and called for tougher sanctions against Moscow.

"The bodies of 410 civilians have been removed from Kyiv-area towns that were recently retaken from Russian forces, Ukraine’s prosecutor-general, Iryna Venediktova, said.

"Associated Press journalists saw the bodies of at least 21 people in various spots around Bucha, northwest of the capital. One group of nine, all in civilian clothes, were scattered around a site that residents said Russian troops used as a base. They appeared to have been killed at close range. At least two had their hands tied behind their backs and one of those was shot in the head; another's legs were bound.

"Ukrainian officials laid the blame for the killings — which they said happened in Bucha and other Kyiv suburbs — squarely at the feet of Russian troops, with the president calling them evidence of genocide. But Russia’s Defense Ministry rejected the accusations as “provocation.' ”. . .

Catholic University Speaker Calls for Christians to 'Crucify Their Whiteness'

Perhaps "Beto" O'Rourke studied under him?

 Catholic University Speaker Calls for Christians to 'Crucify Their Whiteness' – RedState   "At Carlow University recently, attendees were taught a lesson in death-to-self.

"The Catholic college’s Atkins Center for Ethics welcomed speaker Miguel De La Torre.

Miguel — a professor of social ethics and Latinx studies at the Iliff School of Theology in Denver — denounced Christians who voted for Donald Trump:

“When eight out of ten white evangelicals voted for a person who is completely against everything Christianity stands for, I don’t know what Christianity they are practicing. But I want nothing to do with that Christianity.”

"With which Christianity does he wish to associate? Presumably, the one committed to certain racial justice — March 3rd’s event was called “Rejecting White Christianity.”

"And on the table lay not only rejection, but death upon a cross.

"If you’re white, he made clear, don’t worry; there’s still hope:

“Those of us who are colored, some of us can also be white. But the good news is there is salvation. … We [who are colored] have to crucify our colonized minds, and for our white brothers and sisters, they need to crucify their whiteness.”

"It’s a novel idea. Normally, Christian optimism comes courtesy of Christ’s crucifixion. But Miguel sees another nailing necessary.". . .

Back to The Old Rugged Racial Justice, I have news for Miguel: He and his message are too late.

The best I can tell, whiteness is already being crucified:

Hillary Clinton Campaign Pays $113,000 FEC Fine in Admission of Guilt for Producing Steele Dossier — Now Hopes Media Will Assist Them in Killing the Story

 Hillary Clinton Campaign Pays $113,000 FEC Fine in Admission of Guilt for Producing Steele Dossier -- Now Hopes Media Will Assist Them in Killing the Story (thegatewaypundit.com)

"Kash Patel, the former National Security Council Senior Director of Counterterrorism, and the lead investigator for Rep. Devin Nunes in exposing the FBI’s involvement in the debunked Trump-Russia dossier, says Hillary Clinton and the DNC now hope this massive scandal will all just go away.

"Of course, they are counting on the fake news mainstream media in closing the curtains on this massive fraud they perpetrated on the American public.

"The Epoch Times reported:

The lead investigator for the House Intelligence Committee’s 2018 probe into the FBI’s investigation of alleged Trump–Russia collusion, Kash Patel, said the fact that the Hillary Clinton campaign is paying a penalty to Federal Election Commission (FEC) is an admittance of guilt. Clinton and DNC are doing so to bury the narrative and prevent more media coverage of these illegal activities, said Patel.

“I think the public sees what that is. It’s their way of burying the narrative, because if they contested what happens, more media coverage, more people start looking into these things,” Patel said.

“So the Hillary Clinton campaign is not contesting it, they’re paying the fine. It’s basically admitting that they did this and they’re out is: ‘we just don’t want a protracted legal deal, as if the Hillary Clinton campaign and DNC ever shied away from taking something or someone to court,” Patel added.

Clinton’s campaign and the DNC agreed to pay a combined $113,000 to the FEC, according to documents made public on March 30, after the commission found probable cause that the entities violated federal law by describing payments that ultimately went to the Fusion GPS research group as going toward legal services and consulting.

Adam Kinzinger Proves Just How Much Tucker Carlson Has Broken Him

 RedState  "Never Trump politicians like Rep. Adam Kinzinger (RINO-IL) seem to have a common problem — they’re not the brightest bulbs in the shop and they have difficulty being honest about the facts. That perhaps explains why they have the political position they have.

"Kinzinger came out with a comment about Tucker Carlson and you’ll see the immediate problem with it.

“Now that we have seen evidence of mass graves in Ukraine, and pictures of the atrocities against civilians, We should demand @TuckerCarlson answer for his support of this war, as well as those Congressmen who have done the same. @GOPLeader should demand accountability,” Kinzinger tweeted.

"Now, first of all, this is just false. Tucker Carlson does not “support” the war. Indeed he condemned the war on his show on March 21, noting that he was rooting for the Ukrainians to boot the Russians. What he had expounded on was whether or not it was our fight and to what extent we should be involved. Plus perhaps there were other priorities that we might have. Kinzinger can’t understand the difference. So Kinzinger is just wrong, as he generally is.

"But second, so what if he did “support” it? We don’t go after people for “wrong think” in this country. If we did, we’d be like Vladimir Putin and Russia. That’s what Kinzinger is advocating — that the government go after private citizens — a member of the media even — and demand he act in political compliance with what Kinzinger says. That even members of Congress who might disagree with him should be punished for not being in line with the narrative. Can you get more fascistic and Putin-like than that? How is that free speech? Isn’t that suppressing the media? This is a failure on Kinzinger’s part to understand his role as a member of Congress and the Constitution that he allegedly swore to uphold. What Kinzinger is pushing is not America.

"This is the same guy who Tucker invited on his show to give him the chance to say his piece but Kinzinger wimped out because he couldn’t handle the action. He knew he would get sliced and diced.". . .

Buttigieg: Get used to gas prices until we achieve 'energy independence that is based on clean energy' (bizpacreview.com)  "By now it should be clear that the Biden administration isn’t going to do anything about skyrocketing gas prices outside of symbolic gestures like tapping the Strategic Petroleum Reserve because the pain at the pump serves as its best argument for ushering in the transition to electric vehicles, a key component of the president’s green agenda.

"While Biden, Democrats and their advocates in the media are spinning the crushing blow to American household budgets by blaming it all on Vladimir Putin, the truth is that gas prices were already at the highest level in years well before Russian tanks rolled across the Ukrainian border, a result of administration policies that are hostile to the domestic fossil fuel industry including the cancelation of the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office.

"The indifference from Biden and his top cabinet members toward the suffering of real Americans is exemplified by the words of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg who shrugged off the very real concerns of the little people, essentially saying to get used to being gouged until the U.S. adapts the utopian provisions of the Green New Deal and clean energy.". . .

AOC stands exposed, once again

What is unfortunate is that despite her blatant sanctimoniousness, her disingenuousness, and her act, her progressive constituents will vote her back to power over and over again. Unless she finds career activism rather than politics more lucrative, she may even end up becoming Speaker of the House someday. 

 American Thinker  "Most people remember last year's Met Gala, which the New York Times called "the party of the year" not only for the ostentatious display but for the blatant hypocrisy displayed by myriad Democrat attendees.

"A perfect example of this band of hypocrites is the leader of ‘The Squad’, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

"During the day she pontificates about the dire need to uplift the poor, the downtrodden, minorities, and her favorite illegal immigrants. AOC relentlessly whines about income inequality and the need for draconian tax measures against the affluent.

"The issues she stands for always have three-word slogans such as ‘Tax the Rich, ‘Defund the Police’ etc.

"AOC even pulled a Smollett when she exaggerated her “traumatic experience" from the Capitol protests, claiming Trump supporters were hunting for her and that she feared rape. Later, facts emerged that she was not at the site, but at a nearby office building.

"She also has an inflated opinion of herself. After being mocked on Twitter for being ‘maskless‘ at a restaurant in Florida, despite being a fervent advocate of masks and for her boyfriend’s garish choice of footwear, AOC devoid of any self-awareness or hesitation declared that her critics are angry since they can’t date her.

"Despite being a prominent member of Congress, AOC is in permanent victimhood mode, especially when anybody offers a valid critique of her word salads. She frequently refers to herself as a persecuted woman of color clubbing herself with other persecuted groups.

"But when the media is away and the cameras are turned off, matters are drastically different.

"AOC is seen prancing around in very expensive designer dresses at parties such as the Met Gala where tickets are priced at $35,000 per head.". . .
