Democrat Primary Ad Hits Rep. Jerry Nadler for Being a Man

 - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  . . ."Of all of the criticisms that could be made of Nadler, that he is insufficiently pro-abortion is a strange one to make. NARAL Pro-Choice America gives Nadler a legislative score of 100 percent. He introduced legislation to pack the Supreme Court in 2021, before the decision in Dobbs that stoked liberal rage at the institution. He also chairs the House Judiciary Committee and has held hearings about the Dobbs decision, including one where a Democratic witness claimed that men could get pregnant and have abortions.

"The only vote Nadler has ever taken that could even remotely be construed as pro-life was his support for the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act of 2002. The bill passed the House by a voice vote, so no roll call was taken, and it is unclear where Maloney stood on it. The bill went on to pass the Senate unanimously and be signed into law by President George W. Bush, demonstrating how uncontroversial it was. Nadler has given leftists everything they could possibly want on the abortion issue. His only problem, apparently, is that he is male.

"Primary races between incumbent members of Congress are rare but sometimes occur when redistricting scrambles congressional lines. In the case of New York, Democrats tried to gerrymander the state and protect their incumbents, drawing a brutal gerrymander that left only four of the state’s 26 congressional districts favoring Republicans and contorted Nadler’s district into an “S” shape.

The last major media holdout still shilling for Joe Biden

 That clown's outfit is Politico, a usually better than average source of news otherwise. It's the lone holdout, the dead-ender still resolutely insisting that Joe Biden in the White House will somehow usher in a worker's paradise and prosperity is around the corner. It's amazing how they cling to their man

 Monica Showalter   "By all accounts - by every economic indicator, every political poll, every overseas interaction, every lie at the presidential podium -- Joe Biden is a miserable failure as president. Inflation brought on by government spending has now tipped the economy into recession and there is no end in sight. The border lies open, with the Border Patrol converted into a de facto valet and escort service for literally millions of unvetted illegal border crossers. Crime is out of control. America is a laughingstock abroad, with Biden's name on the most humiliating military pullout in U.S. history. 

"He's a man utterly unfit for the office, a man whose very placement in office demonstrates the horrific consequences of electoral fraud.

"Even the New York Times has come to much of this sorry conclusion, as has the Washington Post, and to an increasing extent, CNN and the other networks, as well as their deep-state allies. A slew of negative stories are now out on the failures and shocking corruption of Biden, as Democrats plot to remove the millstone-round-their-necks from office.

"Victor Davis Hanson observed it best:

Now, that liability, that asset, Joe Biden, is a liability, and he's so low in the polls that they're going to blame him for their own progressive message, failing to attract voters. So all of a sudden out of this administrative state and the FBI, the DOJ, maybe even the White House, people are starting to leak . . .

We've finally got confirmation that Joe was 'the Big Guy' all along

  American Thinker   "Currently, Merrick Garland is seriously contemplating indicting Donald Trump for daring to do what Democrats did in 2000 and 2016: question an election's validity.  That is a dangerous ideological turn.  Meanwhile, in the land of actual facts, Miranda Devine has unearthed compelling evidence that, when Hunter's business partners were planning to have "H" hold "10%" for "the Big Guy" as part of a massive deal with a CCP-backed Chinese energy company, "the Big Guy" was Joe Biden, who had just left the vice president's office.

" 'The background to this story is that Hunter Biden, in a drugged out haze, dropped his computer off in a Delaware repair shop and never returned to pay for the repair and pick up the computer.  And so it was that Hunter Biden's hard drive entered the public domain right before the 2020 election.  In addition to his exceptionally disgusting, debauched, and definitely illegal habits (illicit drugs, prostitutes, and possibly much worse), the laptop was also overflowing with information about Hunter's business dealings.

"Some of Hunter's business dealings were already known.  For example, everyone knew that his lucrative job at Ukraine's corrupt Burisma energy company was only because his father was vice president with control over distributing U.S. funds to that equally corrupt country.  It was also well known that Hunter was doing big business with the Chinese Communist Party, America's greatest geopolitical rival, during his father's time in the Obama White House.". . .

America's Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine promotes 'father's milk' -

Is this the end of America, the "shining city on a hill"?

 Andrea Widberg,- American Thinker   "An old joke tells of the miserly farmer who tried to save money by training his mule to go without food.  He later explained that the experiment was working perfectly except that the darned mule was so stubborn that it up and died.  That mule represents reality.  The so-called transgender movement is trying to pretend reality can be ignored and is forcing its sick fantasy on America.  The latest example is the "gender inclusive" language guide from The Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine (ABM) suggesting that hospitals and lactation consultants add the phrase "father's milk" to their vocabulary.

"The Post Millennial broke the story:

"This document was sent to me by a friend whose wife is a hospital nurse for new moms and their babies," evolutionary biologist Colin Wright Wright told The Post Millennial. "He said this new 'inclusive terminology' is being implemented at her hospital, and that nurses and other health professionals are being required to ask each patient what terms they wish to have used when discussing their care."

The guideline also includes words "chestfeeding," "human milk feeding," and "lactating person" to use in place of "traditional terms" like breastfeeding, nursing mother and breast.. . .

Ann Coulter: Actually, Our Culture Is Better

 Child rape, gang rape, incest -- it's been a long time since we've seen much of that in the United States. Of course, there are lots of things we thought had been abolished a hundred years ago that our immigration policies are bringing back. 

Townhall. . .But as long as they're going to keep talking about how hard it is to get an abortion in Ohio, I'm going to keep talking about how hard it is to assimilate the third world to first-world norms about women and children. 

"Child rape, gang rape, incest -- it's been a long time since we've seen much of that in the United States. Of course, there are lots of things we thought had been abolished a hundred years ago that our immigration policies are bringing back. 

"Indeed, the precise reasons people doubted "10-year-old rape victim" (until we found out the rapist was an illegal immigrant from Guatemala) were: 

1) We grew up in America, where such crimes were freakishly rare; 

2) We are being systematically lied to about the new cultures being brought in by mass third-world immigration. 

"In its treatment of women, America is rare even among Western nations.

Toward the end of "Democracy in America," Alexis de Tocqueville attributes "the unusual prosperity and growing strength" of America to "the superiority of their women." 

"This admirable creature, he said, was the product of Protestantism combined with self-government and the spirit of freedom. 

" 'Amongst almost all Protestant nations young women are far more the mistresses of their own actions than they are in Catholic countries. ... [S]he has scarcely ceased to be a child when she already thinks for herself, speaks with freedom, and acts on her own impulse."

"Cut to: The mother of the 10-year-old rape victim in Ohio adamantly defending her child's rapist." . . .

The Biden Bunch: Joe and our nation's Leadership

Biden and The Destruction of Wisdom – sbynews

"The Biden regime is decoupled from both the past and reality, and quite capable of destroying Americans’ lives as they have known them.

"There used to be an agreed-on body of wisdom, which both Left and Right, Republicans and Democrats, generally accepted. Heated arguments and invective centered on implementations and methods of solving problems, which at least both sides agreed were problems. Both ideologies accepted a common core of wisdom, despite their radical differences in interpreting it.

"Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and especially Biden’s strange cabinet of loud Jacobin amateurs, reject the very hallowed knowledge upon which civilization is based. In that sense the public has begun to recognize them as nihilist and anarchist. Nearly two out of three Americans in some polls hold unfavorable views of the Biden Administration. They fear that it is decoupled from both the past and reality, and quite capable of destroying their lives as they have known them.". . .

How can we ever get our nation's adversaries and enemies to unsee what Democrats have fostered before the world? TD

So, It Turns Out That Biden Video Was Worse Than We Initially Knew

 Townhall

Townhall

"Yesterday, I covered the disturbingly viral video from President Joe Biden in which he didn't blink for nearly 20 seconds as he made some digs at former President Donald Trump and blabbered on about how "you can't be pro-insurrection and pro-cop, you can't be pro-insurrection and pro-democracy, you can't be pro-insurrection and pro-American." Well, as it turns out, there was more footage, as our friends at Twitchy covered, and it contains sloppy cuts.". . .

. . ."A major complaint from the video published Tuesday afternoon was that the president didn't blink, once. His voice also sounded croaky and hoarse though. While Biden does blink in the raw footage video, his voice remains problematic. It even sounds like he's slurring his words. "This law does so much more, it saves lives, including yours," he says at one point. "It'll help you do your job, but it's just a start," he says at another. The additional footage also gives deeper context to Biden referencing being "pro-cop," despite how members of his party have supported defunding the police. "Last week, I rolled out by Safer America plan, with a goal of doing three key things," Biden shared, including "taking additional commonsense steps to reduce gun crimes and violence." It's worth reminding that to the president, and Vice President Kamala Harris, "commonsense steps" include a ban on so-called assault weapons, even though fellow Democratic lawmakers acknowledge that's not practical. Many responses point to the particularly poor editing job". . .

Hostage-Like Video From Joe Biden Is Really Freaking Everybody Out

Thank goodness! We’ve finally learned Kamala Harris’s pronouns -

 Andrea Widberg  "Kamala Harris attended a meeting with disability rights leaders and promptly made a fool of herself by announcing her pronouns and telling what color suit she’s wearing. By doing so, she was copying two obnoxious leftist trends and outing herself as a follower who can never be a serious leader.

"I don’t need to tell you about the “announcing of the pronouns” trend because that’s been sickening us for years now. Another less common trend is for speakers to describe a little bit about their skin and hair coloring and their clothes for the visually impaired. I have friends who are blind, and I find it difficult to believe that this brief description really matters to them for the simple reason that, by virtue of being blind, they inhabit a mental world that usually isn’t big on colors. Theirs is more of an auditory world than a visual one.

"These little announcements are pure virtue signaling, highlighting the speaker’s exquisite sensitivity. They're also a good way to force the issue of race on people who, by rights, don't need to be burdened by such considerations. (Just think of Dave Chappelle's brilliant black white supremacist shtick.)

"To set the scene, everyone at the meeting was doing the pronouns and self-description shtick:". . .

Portland Will Entertain Banning Sale of Fossil-Based Diesel Fuel Within City Limits

Portland Will Entertain Banning Sale of Fossil-Based Diesel Fuel Within City Limits (wweek.com)   "The city of Portland will seek public comment on banning the sale of petroleum-based diesel fuel within the city limits as part of its Climate Emergency Work Plan, presented to the City Council today.

"The work plan aims to curb diesel usage by electrifying trucks and using more biodiesel, which is derived from agricultural sources like cooking oil. The diesel ban will go out to public comment at the end of August, said Andria Jacob, climate policy and program manager for the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability.

"The code change would “phase out petroleum diesel sold in the city of Portland over the next several years,” Jacob told the council.

"The City Council is considering the climate work plan as most of the U.S. suffers under a stultifying heat wave. Temperatures in Portland are forecast to rise to 100 degrees Fahrenheit next week.

"The Portland City Council declared a climate emergency in 2020 and directed city bureaus to take action with a focus on Black, Indigenous and low-income communities. The work plan lays out actions to take over the next three years to “prevent the worst-case scenarios.”

" 'It’s now or never for the climate,” Jacob told the council. “Please choose now.”

"Representatives for fueling stations and the trucking industry says today’s proposal caught them by surprise.". . .
