Woke Defense Department diversity officer mocks 'white folx' and 'Karens' in newly uncovered tweets


'I'm exhausted with these white folx': Black female diversity officer at Dept of Defense boasted on Twitter about reprimanding a white woman for her 'CAUdacity' after she said 'black people can be racist too'

A senior official in the Pentagon's education wing who has written books on anti-racism has a history of mocking white people on Twitter, recently-resurfaced posts revealed on Tuesday.

Kelisa Wing is the chief diversity, equity and inclusion officer in the Department of Defense's Education Activity office, which oversees schooling for children of Pentagon employees including active duty service members. 

But before she landed the role, Wing made a few controversial social media posts including one that disparaged a woman for stating that black people 'can be racist too.'

She's also listed as an author on several progressive children's books in a series called 'Racial Justice In America.' 

One book is called 'What Is White Privilege,' while another is 'What Does it Mean To Defund the Police?'

The former has lines such as: 'If you are White you might feel bad about hurting others or you might feel afraid to lose this privilege.'

It also asks white children to consider if they will 'really feel good at the end of the race when you look back and see others fighting obstacles that you didn't even have?'

‘Absolute moron’: Douglas Murray slams CNN anchor for ‘racist hatred’

‘Absolute moron’: Douglas Murray slams CNN anchor for ‘racist hatred’ - YouTube

 "Author Douglas Murray has slammed CNN anchor Zain Asher as an “absolute moron” after she claimed the Royal Family is grappling with a legacy of “the potential paying of reparations”.

"He said when people talk about reparations it demonstrates their “incredible ignorance”. “She has no idea in her racist hatred that Britain paid reparations 250 years ago,” he told Sky News host Rita Panahi.". . .


The comments to this video included these remarks:
"It’s depressing that as an American, I have to rely on a news channel on a continent halfway around the world, as it has become impossible to trust our so called news media here to give factual, unbiased news. That said, I too mourn the passing of the Queen. She exemplified classiness, despite a changing world and family drama."

"I’m an American and I’m so ashamed of how the liberal left media and these so called educators are bashing a great woman who has died. They are completely unhinged and ignorant."

"How right you are Mr. Murray. As an American in my late 60's, I can only shake my head at the ignorance shown by today's American news media and academics. I was there at the start of the radicalizing of America's youth in the 1960s, and it has only gotten worst over the decades. All I can say is. "GOD save us from our own ignorance/stupidity!' "



Trump's 2020 Gas Price Prediction Comes True: $7 Plus Under Biden

 

Trump Was Right Again: Russia Shuts Gas Off for Europe…Indefinitely - The Lid

Trump's 2020 Gas Price Prediction Comes True: $7 Plus Under Biden   . . .“They [wind farms] ruin the environment, they kill the birds and they cost a fortune,” Trump explained. “We have natural gas…costs us nothing. Actually nothing. They burn it off. When you look at all of those flames on top of the wells, that’s natural gas that they burn off. They throw [it] away…and we want to give that away for windmills.”

"The average price of gas is just six cents away from breaking the all-time 2008 record of $4.11. Since Russia invaded Ukraine, oil prices have continued to surge and gas prices have increased to over $4.00 per gallon.

"Instead of supporting American energy independence, Biden is likely seeking a substitute for Russian oil, which  finances the Russian invasion of Ukraine, though Biden has not sanctioned relevant Russian energy suppliers. Russia provided ten percent of global supply last year.". . .


Russia has blamed sanctions imposed by the US and its Western allies for the technical disruptions to energy shipments, but European nations have accused President Vladimir Putin of weaponizing the export of gas and oil in an effort to punish them for supporting Ukraine militarily​.


BIDENFLATION: Americans Who Need To Work Second Job Hits 30-Year High - The Lid  "Dems are DESPERATE to find stories they can spin to make Biden’s economy look better, Trump’s economy look worse, or maybe both. But reality keeps getting in the way.

"They pull no end of dirty tricks and rhetorical sleight of hand. One day they’re redefining ‘recession’ so Biden won’t be presiding over a recession at midterms.

"Another day they’re claiming that people returning to work under Biden after government edicts artificially shut down entire economic sectors for years is somehow a comparable victory to Trump slashing taxes and red tape to create record-setting low unemployment rates across all categories, including women, minorities, youth, and even the disabled.

"They use the pandemic to artificially reframe job numbers to help their team and hurt the other team.". . .

Tucker Carlson warns that Biden is actively criminalizing political opposition -

Both Fetterman and Biden are seriously incapable of governing anything; they are both merely tools to be used by the left in America who hate this nation and its founding. A tool can do nothing on its own but only what its owner is capable of making it do; much like the applause machine in a TV talk show studio. The sign lights up and produces youthful cheers and applause in response to the most inane leftist statements by those we allow into our homes. TD

Remember the 2011 union (Democrat) occupation of the Wisconsin state capitol building?


 American Thinker  "When I started watching Tucker Carlson, one of the things that made him enjoyable was that he always kept a little bit of an ironic distance from what he was covering. In recent months, though, that has changed. Tucker’s angry and righteously so. Monday night’s monologue may have been his most fiery yet because he focused on something we’ve all seen from the moment Biden swore an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”: As all totalitarian regimes do, Biden is using the instruments of government to persecute his political opponents.

"We saw it when Biden and his armed bureaucrats characterized a large protest and an accompanying small riot at the United States Capitol (especially compared to past Democrat and BLM riots) as an “insurrection.”

"We saw it when they imprisoned those people who had entered the Capitol (many under the impression that they were allowed to be there) and proceeded to hold them without bail, charges, or trial. When Democrats engaged in violent protests across America from January 2016 forward, Biden and his cohorts characterized those protests as “mostly peaceful” and righteous First Amendment actions aimed at challenging a fake president. Remember “The Resistance”?

"We saw it when the same administration that’s copacetic about drug, sex, and child trafficking across a completely open border engaged in an all-out nationwide manhunt to track down every granny who wandered awestruck through the Capitol rotunda taking photos.". . .


Tucker Carlson: Biden DOJ Has Targeted ‘Dozens and Dozens’ of Trump Allies in Latest Crackdown on ‘Enemies of the Regime’ › American Greatness

Chuck Todd: We are now at the 21st marking of the September 11th attacks. This was a foreign terrorist attacking our democracy, attacking this country. We are now as a nation fighting a threat from within. Is the threat equal or greater than what we faced after 9-11?

FBI Concerned That If MAGA Doesn't Conduct A Terrorist Attack Soon They'll Have To Fake One | Babylon Bee Parody   

. . ."The attempts to get "MAGA Republicans" to commit terrorism have escalated in recent weeks. The gentle initial prodding of the Mar-A-Lago raid failed to evoke a riot, and the prodding was then escalated to a speech by Biden with obvious fascist overtones attacking Trump supporters, finally culminating in the raiding of over 50 Trump ally homes last week. "If that doesn't do it, what will?" said Wray.

"Critics have contended that there is no widespread evidence of the FBI's history of supporting and propagating terrorism to justify crackdowns on the current administration's political enemies. Ted Cruz, however, has asked pointed questions about FBI involvement in perpetrating the events of January 6, and Cruz asked Justice Department representatives whether the FBI was involved. The FBI has provided a comprehensive answer to Cruz, saying "Shut up."

Obama smacked down for gaslighting about Americans being 'better off' under Joe Biden


 American Thinker   "In comparison to Joe Biden, Barack Obama appears to be a picture of probity, wisdom, and dignity. 

"But in reality, he's just a more unflappable liar, and now that Democrats are on the rocks in the polls, he's cribbed a page from Ronald Reagan, a man he's always had a curious fascination for, claiming that "the country is better off than when you took office.  We should all be deeply grateful for that."

"If Obama were to ask that as a question, the way Reagan once did, the open-ended answer would not have been to his liking, so Obama supplied the answer, too.

"He was all gaslighting.

"The geniuses at Issues & Insights have a tremendous takedown of that ridiculous claim, going point by point, with hard numbers, showing just how phony that Obama statement was, beginning with this memorable lede:

When he wasn't admiring his White House portrait, Barack Obama managed to say a nice thing about President Joe Biden. He must have been joking, though, because what he said defies reality.

"Joe, it is now America's good fortune to have you as president," Obama said. "The country is better off than when you took office. We should all be deeply grateful for that.". . .

$500,000 National Science Foundation Grant Produced Paper Saying Science Is Racist |

 Somehow I have little confidence in the "wisdom" of the American electorate and this nation's capacity for choosing competent leaders. I look ahead to this next election with concern and a large bit of pessimism. TD

The Daily Wire

 . . ."argue that physics was racist, in part because it rewards students for getting the right answer and uses [- wait for it - ] whiteboards."   Whiteboards!


"A $500,000 grant from the National Science Foundation funded a 22-page “study” that used Critical Race Theory to argue that physics was racist, in part because it rewards students for getting the right answer and uses whiteboards.

"The paper was funded through National Science Foundation Grant No. 1760761, which gave $500,000 to Seattle Pacific University for “understanding centrality and marginalization in undergraduate physics teaching and learning.”

“ 'Critical Race Theory names that racism and white supremacy are endemic to all aspects of U.S. society, from employment to schooling to the law,” the paper reads. “We see the outcomes of this in, for example, differential incarceration rates, rates of infection and death in the era of COVID, and police brutality. We also see the outcomes of this in physics.”

"In exchange for the hefty government funding, two scholars — a “chronically ill and disabled, physics-Ph.D.-holding, thin wealthy white woman” and a black man — watched videos of four science lessons, and spoke to two students and the teacher over Zoom.

"The paper indicts all of physics as racist by isolating a six-minute presentation of a group project in one of the videos and turning it into a metaphor. In the presentation, one male group member does all the work for the group, while the other two female members make jokes and ask questions demonstrating that they did not understand the topic. After the group solved the problem of how much heat it would take to raise a bucket of water’s temperature one degree, the student who had done all the work presented the results to the class on behalf of his group, at his peers’ behest.". . .

Official greeter for illegals

Power Line "New York City Mayor Eric Adams must be a weird dude. He bitches about the illegal immigrants Texas Governor Greg Abbott buses up to his sanctuary city and dispatches an official greeter to welcome them. He’s funny that way. Perhaps he illustrates the contradictions inherent in making the Democrats’ platform of national suicide real.

"I wondered about that official greeter. Why haven’t we heard more about him? He walks the Democrats’ walk, shall we say.

"According to CNN’s Ray Sanchez, his name is Manuel Castro. Appointed by Adams, Castro is Commissioner of the NYC Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs. The city has posted his biography here.

"Sanchez is vague on Castro’s status. It states: “Castro himself crossed the US-Mexico border with his mother when he was 5.”

"Castro’s city bio is somewhat clearer: “As a child, Castro crossed the border with his mother to reunite with his father who immigrated to NYC years earlier….He was part of the early generation of undocumented youth activists known as DREAMers fighting for the right to an education and legal status.” So he comes by his job as the official greeter honestly, so to speak.

"Sanchez’s story lobs a shot at the site of the illegals’ destination: “He has been greeting migrants at the much maligned Port Authority terminal, a notorious commuter gateway once called ‘a hall of unfathomable nightmares’ by the website Failed Architecture.” The illegals deserve something more befitting their exalted status — maybe something more along the lines of Grand Central Station or Yankee Stadium.

"The notion of illegality does not cross Sanchez’s keyboard. The illegal aliens are of course “undocumented immigrants and asylum seekers.” They are the heroes of Sanchez’s story.". . .

Beheaded Mom Identified, Killer Is Illegal Immigrant

As Obama would say, she is still better off under Biden. TD

 Update: Beheaded Mom Identified, Killer Is Illegal Immigrant – PJ Media


"The young mother who was brutally beheaded last Thursday has been identified as 27-year-old Karina Castro. Castro was beheaded with a sword just before noon last Thursday in broad daylight as shocked neighbors watched. The attack took place in front of her apartment building. An earlier report stated she was 25 years old.". . .

Never mind al-Qaeda, it’s now the Left that hates America’s freedoms -

Progressives now use censorship as a weapon, increasingly working in unison to stamp out the views of those who dissent from the Left's consensus.

 Based Politics (based-politics.com)   "As we observed the 21st anniversary of 9/11 on Sunday, two thoughts came to mind: First, of course, remembering the thousands of heroes and victims who perished on that awful day.

"Second, recalling how much we got wrong in the aftermath. 

"President George W. Bush addressed the nation on September 20, 2001, fingering the terrorist group al-Qaeda and its leader Osama Bin Laden as the culprits for the attacks. This would lead to America’s longest war in Afghanistan where we ultimately accomplished nothing, and a long war in Iraq that was just as pointless and had absolutely nothing to do with 9/11.

"Still, that night Bush explained why he believed these terrorists hated us so much.

“They hate our freedomsour freedom of religion, our freedom of speech, our freedom

"to vote and assemble and disagree with each other,” Bush said.

"Bush implied that such freedoms were most nation’s universal desires, framing his new War on Terror as a battle of the world against extremists. 

“This is not, however, just America’s fight,” the president warned. “And what is at stake is not just America’s freedom.”  

" 'This is the world’s fight. This is civilization’s fight,” Bush promised. “This is the fight of all who believe in progress and pluralism, tolerance and freedom.”

"Never mind the fact that the terrorists had specific reasons for the attack, all based on U.S. foreign policy and not basic Western liberties. To date, no 9/11s have occurred in Canada or Holland. Never mind that high-profile figures such as conservative pundit Pat Buchanan had warned two years prior that such an attack could happen due to constant U.S. intervention in the Middle East. ". . .

Sunday Talks, Senator Mark Warner Says "People Will Die" if Trump Mar-a-Lago Documents Become Public -

 The Last Refuge (theconservativetreehouse.com)   "Now you are going to see why it was necessary to write the previous article about the Trump -v- Clinton lawsuit.

"We must stop pretending. Everyone, including everyone who reads here and specifically SSCI Chairman Mark Warner, already knows what is in those documents from Mar-a-Lago.  Those documents contain the evidence of the collective government effort to target candidate Trump and then effectively remove President Trump.  THAT effort included the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.  Stop pretending.

"Senator Mark Warner was at the heart of the legislative branch effort in the aftermath of the failed attempt to stop candidate Trump from winning the 2016 election.  Senator Warner specifically instructed Senate Security Director James Wolfe to leak the Carter Page FISA application, with an intent to further the effort to install a special counsel to help cover-up the pre-election activity.  Warner is enmeshed in the corruption created by the false Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy nonsense.

"With Warner’s instructions to Wolfe in mind, there is a specific statement in this ridiculous effort at narrative construction called an interview, that is just exponentially hubris, 

 “The record of our intelligence committee of keeping secrets secret, that’s why the Intelligence Committee shares information with us,” Warner claims.". . .

We’re ‘Better Off’ Under Biden? Who Is Obama Kidding? –

Finally, there’s the fact that a majority of Americans now favor impeaching Biden. A new Rasmussen survey finds that 52% of likely voters want him impeached. Even among Democrats, almost a third (32%) want him impeached. 


 Issues & Insights   "When he wasn’t admiring his White House portrait, Barack Obama managed to say a nice thing about President Joe Biden. He must have been joking, though, because what he said defies reality.

“ 'Joe, it is now America’s good fortune to have you as president,” Obama said. “The country is better off than when you took office. We should all be deeply grateful for that.”

"Our “good fortune”? Let’s review just how much “better off” we all are thanks to Biden and his fellow Democrats." (a sampling below)

COVID deaths: When Biden took office on the promise that he had a plan that would end COVID, the official death count was 424,318. Today it is over 1.044 million. In other words, there have been nearly 620,000 COVID deaths on Biden’s watch. And that’s despite all the interventions Biden claimed would end the pandemic. Are the families of those 620,000 people better off?

 Financial stress: Inflation and a sluggish economy have had an impact on people’s sense of financial stress. When Biden took office, the IBD/TIPP Financial Related Stress Index stood at 61.6. Anything over 50 indicates increased stress. (TIPP is also a polling partner of Issues & Insights.) That was understandable since the economy was still reeling from the COVID lockdowns the previous year. But the financial stress index was 69.3 in July 2022, or 12.5% higher. Anyone want to argue that people are better off under Biden when it comes to their financial worries?

Economic optimism:  The IBD/TIPP economic optimism index stood at 50.1 when Biden took office, and then climbed during the first few months of his presidency. But once Biden’s economic policies started to take effect, confidence plunged. It is now a desperately low 38.1. The last time it was this low, Biden was vice president.

Unity: When it comes to how united the country is, well, our differences are also worse since Biden took office, despite his solemn pledge to bring the country back together after Trump’s supposedly highly divisive term. The TIPP unity index stands at 28.5, which is down from 37.8 back in April 2021 – the first month TIPP began tracking this. Even Democrats overwhelmingly think Biden has failed to unite the country, with the index plunging from 53.7 in April 2021 to 35.8 today. . . .
