A federal court has temporarily blocked the Biden administration’s interpretation of federal law to conflate gender identity with biological sex, and in doing so, has protected female athletes who would be forced to compete against males in 20 states.
"President Biden has aggressively pushed and expanded Obama’s “dear colleague” Title IX letter that expanded a bill on sex discrimination to a ban on sexual orientation and gender identity.
"Earlier this year, Biden threatened to take poor kids lunch money by cutting funding for free or reduced lunches in public schools if they did not comply with the Title IX “dear colleague” letter.
"One of the requirements is to build gender-neutral restrooms or allow transgender students to use the opposite gender’s bathroom.
"Republican Attorney Generals across the country have pushed back against Biden’s insanity and won a string of victories that will prevent him from forcing transgender identity politics on schools.
"The latest victory came this Sunday as a federal court blocked the Biden administration’s attempt to conflate gender identity with biological sex, which would have allowed male to female transgender athletes to compete with biological females.". . .
That’s Enough...If it gets worse than this, Americans should have a real concern Biden might inadvertently start a war."There shouldn’t be any particular surprise, in any quarter, that Joe Biden came home from the Middle East empty-handed. He’s come home empty-handed from all of his foreign trips since becoming president. Or at least, the American people have had our hands emptied; perhaps the Joe-Jim-Hunter mini-mafia has filled its sacks with plunder away from the attention of the multitudes as a result of these. . .
Bye-bye, Biden - American Thinker. . ."Clearly, the man is cognitively in decline. His many gaffes, word salads, blank stares, popcorn temper flare-ups, weird demeanors, creepy whisperings, touchy-feely gropings with women and children, and his monumentally wrong-headed economic policies are enough to turn the strongest of stomachs.
Biden has single-handedly destroyed America's energy independence.
"He has personally made America a ridiculous paper tiger in the eyes of our enemies who want us dead or conquered.
"Joe Biden has fist-bumped the most powerful oil-producer on the planet in a way that signals an utter lack of seriousness.
"He has opened the borders and welcomed terrorists and murderers.
"Biden seems to deliberately want to link arms with the socialists among us in order to drag America's standard of living down to that of Venezuela's. Food shortages, brownouts and blackouts, a severely reduced reputation as the planet's finest fighting force, and other admirable things America was known for have, have been destroyed or crippled by this impaired president.
"Joe's policies are bankrupting America.". . .
We're All Struggling Because Of Biden, Not The Other Way Around (thefederalist.com)"Perry Bacon Jr. — which is the name of a Washington Post writer, not a sandwich at Arby’s — has managed to have the dumbest excuse to date for why Joe Biden’s approval numbers are somewhere between bad and “get this man out of the White House right now before he kills us all.”
"Bacon wrote on Monday, presumably with a straight face, that a major factor driving the president’s approval ratings to lower than Donald Trump’s is that the news media’s coverage has been “anti-Biden.” He actually said that.". . .
"Biden isn’t the victim of an awful press. They’re the ones who sold him to America. We’re the victims of the media and his presidency."
"The video of AOC pretending to be handcuffed while being arrestedhas been viewedover 2 million times on Twitter.
"As the clip spread, AOC was roundly mocked on social media, the New York Post reported.“
Best performance goes to,,,,
AOC pretended to be in handcuffs when she was escorted away from the Supreme Court,” the official account for the conservative paper Washington Free Beacon tweeted.
“Oh my gosh @AOC faking handcuffs,” wrote Republican commentator Matt Whitlock. “This is too much.”
The Capitol Police must have put invisible handcuffs on @AOC!” tweeted political analyst Carmyn Kinsey.
“You guys… @AOC is such a victim that she has to pretend that the big, mean policeman put her in handcuffs…She probably also thinks he wants to date her,” said conservative columnist Tim Young.". . .
"But that little fake handcuff revelation hardly matters to AOC.
"What matters is that most U.S.-based news agencies such as CNN, NBC News, Axios, etc. reported it as an arrest. Even agencies overseas such as the U.K. Guardian, the BBC, France 24, ABC in Australia, and numerous others reported it as an arrest, complete with a pity party for poor brave AOC.
"AOC knows that more people will read the news than will read social media posts exposing her false claims.
"Perhaps she may claim to be arrested, handcuffed, and even assaulted in her memoirs.
"Following the January 6 protests, AOC went full drama queen there, too, falsely suggesting she was in the Capitol Building and in immediate danger because the protestors were demanding to know where she was and were even banging on her office door. It was eventually revealed that AOC wasn't even in the building during the incident.
"She also did a comparable border stunt in 2019, wearing white, posing in front of a chain link fence, pretending to cry over "caged" migrant illegal border crossers, and then being found out from other pictures that she was "crying" in front of a parking lot for the cameras.". . .
Republican communicator Matt Whitlock tweeted: “Have to wonder if any of the protesters alongside her ever thought ‘wait .. aren’t you an elected member of Congress with the power to pass legislation on this issue? Why are you over here protesting? Pass a bill!’”
“Why was she pretending like she was handcuffed?” asked Elijah Schaffer from The Blaze.
“The fake handcuffs are everything,” said conservative strategist Natalie Johnson.
“She pretends to be handcuffed, raises her fist in a salute, and then goes back to pretending to be handcuffed,” tweeted strategist Greg Price.". . .
"After a heroic protest at the Supreme Court, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spent the better part of three hours sitting in an invisible police car with her wrists bound by invisible handcuffs, waiting to be taken to an invisible jail.
"After being threatened with an invisible gun, I was thrown on the ground by invisible police!" shouted Ocasio-Cortez as she flipped her hair for the camera. "They've kept me stuffed in this invisible squad car for hours, the fascists! When I get out of the invisible slammer, I'm going to make them pay - every last invisible one of them!"
"Several members of Congress were reportedly arrested outside of the Supreme Court today, where they were protesting the court ruling that Congress had to actually show up for work. "It is absolutely heinous that the Supreme Court would ask us to like, make laws," said Representative Ilhan Omar. "We are far too busy leading protests about abortion to actually write any legislation on it. Ugh, why are these invisible handcuffs always so tight?"
"Sources say Ms. Ocasio-Cortez has already obtained her first prison tattoo, which is invisible, and is subsisting well thus far on invisible prison food. She has reportedly kept herself in solitary confinement inside an invisible box, but she does come out to weep outside her own invisible prison cell if she thinks anyone with a camera is nearby.
"At publishing time, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez has generously offered to donate her invisible handcuffs to be displayed in the Smithsonian in commemoration of her bravery."
Neither Republicans nor Democrats have a clear edge with Catholic voters nearly four months before the pivotal midterm elections that will determine control of Congress and how much of President Biden’s agenda will get passed in the next two years, according to an in-depth new survey of American Catholics.
"Overall, likely voters identifying themselves as Catholic are split nearly evenly in their preference for Congress: 44% indicated support for the Republican candidate in their district, while 43% support the Democrat – with a significant bloc of 13% undecided.
"Despite this political divide, a key indicator of voter concern – whether the country is on the right or wrong track – should set off alarm bells for the Biden administration and Democrats, who control both chambers of Congress.
"Some 59% of all Catholics said the country is on the wrong track, including 68% of white Catholics and 45% of Latino Catholics, compared to 24% who thought it’s headed in the right direction.
"While those figures demonstrate widespread pessimism among Catholics, the rest of the country is even more discouraged about the country’s path forward. The RealClearPolitics average of most recent polls shows an overwhelming 75.1% of voters believe the country is off-course, compared to just 18% who say it’s on target.
"These are among the findings in the latest survey of Catholic voter mood by RealClear Opinion Research in partnership with Catholic-themed television network EWTN. The national survey of 1,757 Catholic likely voters is the first of It was conducted online in English and Spanish from June 15-23, immediately before the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, ruling that there is no longer a federal constitutional right to an abortion.". . .
Catholics talk about membership in the mystical Body of Christ, but very few feel and experience that oneness and sense of purpose that pro-abortion, BLM, gay and trans activists, Marxists/progressives feel and experience in pursuit of their missions. For them, it’s always about oneness and solidarity with victims—and saving victims with their grandiose plans and schemes. They burn with passion to save, but in reality, they impoverish, kill, and destroy.
"In his recent video presentation titled, “Message to the Christian Churches,” Dr. Jordan Peterson thundered: “Ask more, not less, of [the young men] you are inviting. Ask more of them than anyone ever has!”
“Remind them who they are in the deepest sense and help them become that,” said the celebrated psychologist. “You’re churches, for God’s sake. Quit fighting for social justice. Quit saving the bloody planet. Attend to some souls — that’s what you’re supposed to do. That’s your holy duty.”
“Do it. Now, before it’s too late,” he urged.
"Peterson’s plea is prophetic.
"The left — mostly huddled under the umbrella of the Democrat Party here in the U.S. — has the worst beliefs, the worst creed, on Earth. But what we must appreciate is that they shout their beliefs from the housetop by every means available. They never give up, they never back down, while Christians speak in mostly subdued tones with hushed, apologetic voices.
"The “Woke” are not ashamed. They are brazen carnival barkers peddling the worst ideas and practices known to man: communism, abortion, transgenderism, same-sex marriage, homosexuality, and racism tidily wrapped up in identity politics and Critical Race Theory.
"And while they unashamedly broadcast their inhuman, Luciferian messages night and day, Christians speak mostly to each other, not the world. And we do so softly, delicately, always ever-so-vigilant not to offend or to sound too zealous.
"Here’s the thing: If anyone is going to change the world for the better, it is Christians, not leftists. Not the “Woke.” Not the social justice warriors. They are lunatics and monsters who defend infanticide, the genital mutilation of children, and the sexualization of young children by cross-dressing men prone to suicide. They promote the very things in which the demon world delights. "Full article here.
* Elizabeth Warren: The Massachusetts senator is still popular among liberals -- and wouldn't be splitting the vote with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders this time around like she did in 2020.
* Amy Klobuchar: Other than Buttigieg, the Minnesota senator was probably the best regarded of the losing candidates in 2020 -- and her Midwest roots are always a plus given the electoral map.
* Roy Cooper: Term-limited out of office in 2024, the North Carolina governor has ample time to consider his next step -- starting with his service as the vice chairman of the Democratic Governors Association.
* Mitch Landrieu: Being tasked with implementing the infrastructure bill is a big (and high-profile) job that the former New Orleans mayor has taken to with relish.
* Gina Raimondo: She made the leap from Rhode Island governor to Biden administration commerce secretary but doubts remain as to whether she is too moderate to win a Democratic primary in this moment.
* Gretchen Whitmer: The Michigan governor needs to win what could be a tough reelection race next year before she can turn to considering a national run in earnest.
* Phil Murphy: The record of New Jersey governors running for president isn't great of late (sorry, Chris Christie!) but Murphy could use the next few years of his governorship as a testing ground for some national policies for the party.
* J.B. Pritzker: Pritzker has two things going for him -- 1) He's the governor of a major Midwestern state (Illinois) and 2) he's very, very rich.
* Stacey Abrams: Abrams talked openly about running in 2020 before passing on the race; but she needs to win the Georgia governor's mansion in 2022 before thinking too much about 2024.
"The Point: If Biden decides not to run, chances are we would be looking at a very crowded field of Democrats seeking to replace him."
RedState "What makes someone a hero? How about a Good Samaritan? Evidently, such questions are contentious.
"And a Sunday incident has some insisting a brave bystander shouldn’t be celebrated.
"At the Greenwood Park Mall in the Indianapolis Metropolitan Area, a man opened fire. As reported by Deseret News, 20-year-old Johnathan Sapirman got off 24 rifle rounds.
"Tragically, three were murdered: Victor Gomez, 30; and couple Rosa Rivera de Pineda, 37, and Pedro Pineda, 56. Two more were injured: a 20-year-old female shot in the leg; and a 12-year minorly wounded by a deflected bullet.
After entering the mall, Sapirman headed straight to the bathroom and was there for over an hour before exiting the bathroom and opening fire.
“The most puzzling piece…was the amount of time that he was in the bathroom,” [Chief James Ison] said. “We believe he was getting ready.”
"But the man’s plans were thwarted because more than bad guys carry guns. Elisjsha Dicken, 22, stopped the mass shooter’s spree.
Footage…showed that Dicken shot 10 rounds from his handgun, while motioning for citizens at the mall to exit behind him.
"Chief James has praised Elisjsha’s intervention:
“Many more people would have died last night if a responsible, armed citizen hadn’t been present…”
"On Sunday evening, the chief compared Elisjsha to a biblical character. He did so again Monday:

"Brandon’s junket this week to the Mideast was so catastrophic that even state-run media could no longer ignore his senile babbling.
"After stumbling off Air Force One, he vowed to “keep alive the truth and honor of the Holocaust.”
"He meant to say, “horror.” Just as he was supposed to read “hallowed” when he slurred out “hollowed ground.”
"But there was so much more, and as usual, all dialogue guaranteed verbatim.
"At least twice he called the Israeli prime minister “Mr. President.” He referred to “Palestinian counties.” He discussed the “United Avrab Ememirates.”
"He referred to the birth of Christ as “God’s great grift to the world.” To be fair, grifts are something all the Bidens understand.
“ 'At the same time, the Israeli uh the Israilty of today is not the Is Israel of 50 years ago.”
"Can we quote you on that, Mr. President?
"And then there are the Arabs he absurdly compared to the Irish under British rule, although no Irish ever vowed to drive their colonial oppressors into the English Channel, the way the Palestinians want to destroy “the Zionist entity.”
“ 'The Palace the Palestinian people are hurting now you feel uh you can just feel it.”
Why are they going to submit to a request like that? They are natural traders, they like making deals, some of them have that Inner Rug Merchant - would that sound like a good deal to them?
"Joe assured two days ago that Saudis would bring prices down at the pump. Well, that didn't happen -- and such a failure could be seen from a mile away.
"Now his Plan B is to get Putin to pump the oil, the same Putin he blamed for the rising prices at the pump. Putin will pump for him. Good luck with that, chump."

Russia ridicules Biden's trans and non-binary appointees | Just The News"Russia is ridiculing transgender Assistant Health Secretary Rachel Levine and non-binary Deputy Assistant Nuclear Energy Secretary Sam Brinton, after a photo of the queer duo at the French ambassador's home went viral last week.

Or do we still fight for our own?"
"Russia's United Nations diplomat Dmitry Polyanskiy also reposted a photo of Levine and Brinton with the caption: "Keep going that way, our dear American ex-partners!

BPR"A chaotic scene erupted in Minneapolis as protesters gathered at an apartment building where a 20-year-old black man was shot by police after he fired into the residence of a mother of two who was preparing dinner for her children at the time.
"In another incident that has stirred passions in a city still deeply affected by the fatal 2020 encounter between George Floyd and police that set off violent riots, police snipers brought an end to the potentially murderous rampage of Andrew “Tekle” Sundberg who engaged in an hours-long standoff with officers that ended with his death on Thursday morning.
"Predictably, despite Sundberg’s “mental health crisis” which could have resulted in multiple deaths other than his own, he has been portrayed as the victim, being sanctified by the Minneapolis chapter of Black Lives Matter and others who showed up at the scene of his demise. But the mother who barely escaped his bullets was having none of it, angrily confronting demonstrators whom she told “he tried to kill me,” which was all captured on video that has since gone viral.". . .
. . ."My latest columnexamines some of the potential hazards the GOP might face heading into the November midterm elections. I contend that Republican candidates need to be “outside the margin of magic mail-in ballots.”
"I go into detail about my misgivings about the vote-by-mail scam that, sadly, Republicans don’t fight against hard enough.
"Mail-in ballots are a known evil, however. What I worry about this year is some as-yet-unknown way to screw with things that we haven’t yet heard of.
"Even when they’re awash in misery like they are at present, the Democrats are working feverishly on conjuring up new “anomalies” that can be introduced into the electoral process. They never lose focus. I imagine them working with a combination of computers, cauldrons, and cult labor minions whose eyes have been glazed over since the first time they got stoned during an Obama speech. All day. All night.
"Democrats certainly won’t be lacking any motivation to come up with more dark magic. They’ve known for a while now that November was bringing a freight train filled with pain their way.
"Also, the train is coming down a mountain and has no brakes.
"Put mildly, the Democrats have been hitting some rough patches when it comes to their lunatic fringe pet issues.". . .
