UPDATED: Obama Worship Continues With Barack's Emmy Win –

  PJ Media


. . ."The Condescender in Chief won his Emmy at Saturday’s Creative Arts Emmy Awards for Best Narrator for the documentary series Our Great National Parks. The Obamas’ Higher Ground production company produced the documentary.

“ 'He was the biggest name in a category full of famous nominees for the award handed out at Saturday night’s Creative Arts Emmys, including Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, David Attenborough and Lupita Nyong’o,” the Associated Press reported in the most gag-inducing way.

"Obama may have deserved his award for narration. He may well have been better than any other television documentary narrator. I rather doubt it, but here’s the thing: Barack Obama would have won the trophy regardless. He’s the king of winning awards whether he deserves them or not.

"Let’s not forget that Nobel Peace Prize that he won for simply existing. And the two Grammys he has won for reading two of his books, The Audacity of Hope and A Promised Land. Actually, the Grammys are notorious for giving awards to left-wing presidents and first ladies. Michelle Obama won a Grammy for reading the audiobook of her memoir, while Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and Jimmy Carter have all won Grammys for their audiobook narrations.

"And in all those cases, they may have been deserving, but we know the truth that they would have won anyway because they’re Democrat darlings and objects of hero worship.". . .

Doesn't anyone remember this?   Obama Wants to Make the Shutdown Hurt Ordinary Americans   "Mr. Obama, in an effort to hurt ordinary Americans, has ordered the closing of hundreds of private parks. He is using the same strategy he used with Sequester.

"This became a clear political strategy this past week when Mr. Obama shut out aged veterans who traveled with a charity group to see the OUTDOOR World War II Memorial.". . .

From an earlier Tunnel Wall post: "Of the men pictured in this collection, those still alive are in or close to their nineties, many in wheelchairs. One wonders how many of these men went to visit the WW2 memorials during Obama's shutdown only to be told they could not enter because Obama wanted the shutdown to hurt.  The Tunnel Dweller."

Tough guys: Many of the veterans at the site were wheelchair-bound or relying on walking canes to get around

Even Obama fans would have to agree he’s led a life of shameless self-promotion. He’d published not just one but two autobiographies before he even became the president and naturally has published a third since. Trump critics can obviously say the same, but being a showman has been part of Trump’s public persona going back to the 1970s. No one ever thought of giving him a halo for it.

General Mark Milley Still Silent After Marines Used in Biden Speech Attacking 'MAGA Republicans'

 Breitbart  "General Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has yet to comment on the use — or abuse — of Marines in President Joe Biden’s speech Thursday attacking “MAGA Republicans,” after Milley complained about Trump’s march across Lafayette Square.

"Biden delivered a diatribe against Donald Trump and the political opposition in general, standing in front of Independence Hall as it was bathed in red light, and flanked by Marines who had been deliberately positioned, the White House said, in staging the address.". . .

As many of you saw the result of the photograph of me at Lafayette Square last week. That sparked a national debate about the role of the military in civil society. I should not have been there. My presence in that moment, and in that environment, created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics. As a commissioned uniformed officer, it was a mistake that I have learned from, and I sincerely hope we all can learn from.

"Gavin Newsom of California was one of the worst governors during the pandemic. He kept more things shut down and had more strict rules than other governors.

"Despite this, Newsom has been attacking Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who has an excellent record for protecting people’s freedoms during the pandemic.

Joe Biden’s Nuremburg Rally  ..." Joe Biden is a horrible, corrupt person. It takes a special kind of stupid to look at the actions and words of this evil opportunist and cheer them. While he accuses his opponents of being fascists, Adolf Biden is actually advocating the policies, and engaging in the tactics of the National SOCIALIST German Workers Party and it ain’t the side interested in individual liberty and the United States Constitution.

 Biden's Tyrannical Speech Shows Their Plan

While saying that "equality and democracy are under assault" from the Right and further sowing division in an already severely divided country, Biden called for the nation to come together, as if half the country would simply accept being declared enemies of the state.

. . ."The other thing they will eliminate? The lower and middle classes of Americans. You can get a $7500 credit for buying an Electric Vehicle. The upfront cost of an EV runs high- with Ford just raising their price of an EV Mustang and EV Truck by $8,000. There goes your $7500 credit. The 2021 Ford Mustang is priced between $42,895 – $59,900. For Americans on a fixed income, that is impossible. Apparently, only the wealthy need apply.

"There are few places to plug it in, and not all places will be free. It’s costly, not to mention dangerous, to put one in your garage. EVs are not all the same, either. Some can be charged in about 15 minutes, while others take around 8 hours. Bring a sleeping bag. If the battery in your vehicle goes bad, plan on taking out a second mortgage because they are exceedingly expensive: anywhere between $3000 and $20,000. This agenda does not seem to have anything to do with “saving the planet.' ”. . .

So was it presidential historian Jon Meacham who wrote Biden's Mussolini Meltdown speech?

Monica Showalter 

. . .To take a perhaps better analogy, given that this is Joe Biden, he's kind of like the emperor with no clothes, susceptible to court flatterers and willing to go naked for them, which is something he always does anyway. It all works so well until it doesn't and a little kid calls him out.

"Well, now Biden has to live with himself, revealed for all to see as a phony, while the "Mussolini" meme will become the defining historical image of his miserable presidency.

"But it also reveals a lot about Biden's motivation. Despite his obvious unfitness for the job, given his dementia, and despite his obvious illegitimacy, given his electoral fraud, he wants to hear flattery. The gushing he wants to hear from his courtiers is not that he is Ordinary Scranton Joe, as his earlier spinners have put it, but that he is grand, that he is greater than his own history, that he is, somehow, a great man.

"It's a vainglory unlike any other.

"There's never been a greater disconnect than that vision Joe has of himself, and the miserable reality that defines him. His bad judgment about this is what's leading him to the crazed dictator images that he's presenting to the world now. He tops Jimmy Carter now in the reality that he's a small, bitter, pathetic, little man.  He's a clown now, a mouse whose ambitions were only to become a rat."

Will the person or persons who wrote that vile speech please step forward? - Thomas Lifson

. . .One thing is certain: they did Biden no favor.  Anyone who saw, heard, or read the speech now knows without a doubt that Joe Biden is an even nastier piece of work than previously known.  He and his speechwriting pals are a blight on our political scene, more than any previous President and staff.  Biden is the most anti-American president in US history, which is saying a lot given Obama’s disdain for America and its people.  May the nation survive the traitors who hold power today.




Washington's stab in Seoul's back shatters US 'values': Global Times editorial

 Global Times

Former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger once said that "it may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal."


. . ."This may be the "new understanding" among some in South Korean public opinion sphere, but it is actually just the way the US is. No matter what beautiful words it uses, the so-called values are just rhetoric used by the US to fool its allies to maintain hegemony. For the US, "shared values" has always meant the unconditional obedience of allies to the interests of the US, rather than bargaining chips that allies can use to deal with the US. Washington has firmly put the right to interpret "values" in its own hands. Only those who follow it have "shared values" with it, while those who go against the US don't.

"As the South Korean media concluded, behind Washington's smiles is the "America First" policy that has become "more cunning and more vicious." History has also repeatedly shown that the US has a quite strong desire for preserving its interests. From a certain sense, the rhetoric of values is designed specially to serve Washington's interests. ". . .

7 Country Singers Who Are Fighting Back Against Biden

  Analyzing America


"There are numerous conservative country music artists, but the following 7 country stars have been outspoken and actively pushed back against Joe Biden and radical Democrats who are destroying America.

"This elite group includes Kid Rock, John Rich, Jason Aldean, Granger Smith, Toby Keith, Trace Adkins, and Brantley Gilbert.

"Here’s a look at each artist:

"It’s widely known that Kid Rock is a personal friend and probably the most outspoken supporter of Donald Trump. Kid Rock has also produced a song titled “We the People” that attacks Joe Biden and Dr. Anthony Fauci.

"The son features the chorus “let’s go Brandon,” which is a euphemism for “f*** Joe Biden.”

"Speaking about Trump, Kid Rock said, “We ended up becoming buddies. Spend a lot of time [together] at the golf course now. It’s really weird to get phone calls from him and stuff. It’s kind of mind-blowing.”. . .

Californians Asked to Conserve Power Amid Brutal Heat Wave

 Californians Asked to Conserve Power Amid Brutal Heat Wave (capoliticalreview.com)


. . ."California’s “Flex Alerts” urge conservation between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m., the hours when production of solar energy declines. The grid operator urges people to use major appliances, charge electric cars and cool down their homes earlier in the day, then turn up thermostats to 78 degrees (25.5 Celsius) or higher.

“ 'The No. 1 most effective conservation measure is to set thermostats to 78 or higher” because air conditioners are the biggest users of electricity in the summer, Anne Gonzales, a spokeswoman for the grid operator, said in an email.

“ 'We have traditionally asked for 78 degrees, because it has a good effect on our demand, and is still comfortable to allow consumers to easily participate,” she said. “We always ask consumers to set it higher, if they can, and if health permits.”

"Keeping temperatures too low can cause air conditioners to run constantly, added Jay Apt, professor at the Carnegie Mellon University College of Engineering.

“If you set that puppy too low, it’s going to run all the time,” said Apt. “That’s going to do two things, the first is that it is going to use an awful lot of energy and the second is that it’s not going to give recovery time.”

"The goal is to allow units to cycle on and off, said Apt, and 78 degrees is a rough estimate for the sweet spot that can vary depending on a building’s insulation.

"In California, customers of Pacific Gas & Electric, the nation’s largest utility, can volunteer to let the company control their internet-connected thermostats during heat waves. The program automatically adjusts the thermostat schedule so it uses less energy during times of peak demand.". . .

Suspended Public School Teacher Who Refused Using Preferred Pronouns Wins HUGE Settlement In Court


  The Blue State Conservative  . . ."Teacher Pamela Ricard was awarded $95,000, thanks to the support of the liberty advocacy legal group Alliance Defending Freedom. They rightly defended Ricard’s right to freely exercise her faith and express her own viewpoints after she was suspended for three days last March by using only the student’s enrolled name

"NBC News writes this about the settlement:

Pamela Ricard sued Geary County Schools in March, saying she was reprimanded and suspended for three days last year “for addressing a biologically female student by the student’s legal and enrolled last name.”

A school counselor at Fort Riley Middle School had told Ricard that the student preferred an alternative first name, and a classmate told Ricard that the student preferred he/him pronouns, the lawsuit said. 

Ricard began addressing the student as “miss,” using the student’s last name, to avoid using the student’s preferred first name. Ricard believed addressing the student as “Miss (legal/enrolled last name)” respected the student while also upholding Ricard’s religious convictions, the lawsuit said.

"NBC added that at the time the district did not have an official policy on the matter of using preferred pronouns. They quoted the lawsuit, noting the absence of a “formal policy regarding student preferred name and pronoun use at the time Ms. Ricard was suspended” did not preclude them from reprimanding her “under generic school district policies related to bullying by staff.' ” . . .

A Handy Guide To The New Gender Pronouns Everyone Must Use (thefederalist.com)


. . ."Almost nothing you do as a non-cisgendered person or person with nontraditional sexual orientation has any effect on me. So go for it.

"However, when you require me to intuit which gender of pronoun I must use to refer to you at any given moment, that does affect me. Especially if there are legal consequences, as in some cities such as New York (of course). We libertarians get particularly choleric when people try to use government force to curtail our freedoms, like speech. Telling me how to speak is just as bad as trying to shut me up.". . .
