“ 'Right now, they’re bringing wokeness in our military,” he said. “You know, I once said the reason we’re the greatest country in the world is we’ve got the greatest military in the world. And the way we got to do this is we got to support them. Because I can promise you right now, Iran, Russia and China are not worried about pronouns. They’re not worried about pronouns. A grenade is not worried about how you identify. A bullet is not worried about the color of your skin. We’ve got to remove wokeness from our military.”
"Walker told the crowd he will have the strength to restore America to its traditional values.". . .

Biden Tells Story About Eating Lunch With Segregationist James Eastland, Calls Him A “Conservative,” Fail To Mention He Was A Dem…. "No, we’re not that stupid."
Two comments from the responses to the video:
Back in the early 20th century democrat party conventions in the south were called Kanbakes and during the 60's they were called Dixiecrats and walked out during congressional sessions to protest civil rights legislation.
The Left frequently and intentionally conflates the words "Conservative" and "conservative". Capital "C" Conservative is a noun that means one who wants government to follow the US Constitution and desires less taxes, smaller government, less regulation, more personal liberty. Small "c" conservative is an adjective that means one who resists change for the sake of change.
A segregationist Democrat could be a small "c" conservative but they could never be capital "C" Conservative.
Lie: Biden Claims He Was “Full Professor” At Univ. Of Pennsylvania… "Reality: He never taught a single class"
Of course, with COVID a panic of the past, there’s an even more nefarious reason for what California is doing.

"The medical community’s approach to COVID broke down along partisan lines: Democrats were in favor of masks and lockdowns, claimed that no existing drugs could save COVID patients, and went all-in on vaccines. Republicans questioned masks’ efficacy, pointed out that lockdowns didn’t improve health but were destroying people’s lives, looked to affordable pre-existing drugs for treatment, and urged caution for the vaccines. Time has favored the Republicans’ views. Still, California just added a law effectively saying, “Embrace Democrat COVID views or lose your license.” Here’s the thing, though: with COVID in the rearview mirror, this is about much more than COVID itself.
"In the almost three years since COVID entered America, we’ve learned that Democrats were mostly wrong about everything related to COVID and Republicans were mostly right.
"1. The cloth and paper masks they imposed on everyone (especially children) are ineffective, as even the CDC concedes, although it tries to obfuscate that fact.
"2. Lockdowns made no difference regarding COVID, although they did help destroy the economy and destroy hundreds of thousands of American lives. (On the flip side, shipping COVID-infected patients to vulnerable elderly communities made a huge and horrible difference.)
"3. Vaccines are proving to be extremely dangerous, something the CDC has also been forced to concede.
"4. The jury is a little bit out on medicines because the American medical establishment has bent itself to “proving” that hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin will not treat COVID. However, it does appear that, for both ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, if patients receive them early enough after a COVID diagnosis, they will make a beneficial difference. (Experiences in both India and Brazil back up these studies.)
"That early intervention is key. Recall that the Democrat medical mantra was that people should do nothing about their COVID until they were at death’s door, at which point they should go to a hospital to get, first, ventilation, which damaged people’s lungs and, eventually, Remdesivir, which damaged people’s livers.
"These were all hot topics a couple of years ago. Now, though, COVID is in the rearview mirror of American life, especially because it’s done what all viruses do: Become both endemic and less virulent. Treatments and societal changes are no longer being fought in the media and the public sphere. Why, then, did California decide now to put into effect a law that will drive from practice those doctors who will prescribe early hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin treatment for COVID? ". .. .
"If we want to maintain our republic, and Western society as a whole, we need to remember the principles that we stand for, and reject the dictates coming down from maniacal politicians and bureaucrats who seek to slowly chip away at our individual liberties."
"It was disappointing when Hollywood temporarily canceled the premier of “The Hunt,” a movie where leftists killed Deplorables for sport. Don’t mistake this cancellation for a ceasefire. Conservatives may not be shot on the big screen, but leftist commissars are still gunning for us.
"The Washington Post’s Viewpoint section is proof. On any Sunday, the WoePost’s opinion pages read like the editorial page of the Oberlin College student newspaper. Feverish leftists imagine conservative shock troops massing behind every Chick-Fil-A (closed on Sunday, so storm troopers in the parking lot won’t interfere with business). A blast on a racial dog whistle will signal the beginning of a goose-stepping march toward Congress (also closed on Sunday and inactive for most of the rest of the year, too).
"Last weekend, a vile woman named Eve Fairbanks published an almost 3,000-word slander of prominent conservatives (for comparison, newspapers only allow me 800 words of calumny).
"She began, “After the El Paso shooting, Ben Shapiro, a popular conservative podcaster, asked Americans to draw a line between the few conservatives who are white supremacists and those who, like him, aren’t. [He complained] ‘Too many on the political left [are] castigating the character of those who disagree,’ lumping conservatives and political nonconformists together with racists and xenophobes.’”
"Eve then proceeds to give Shapiro his lumps by contending conservatives derive their inspiration from antebellum slavery defenders. “The reasonable right’s rhetoric is exactly the same as the antebellum rhetoric I’d read so much of. The same exact words. The same exact arguments. Rhetoric, to be precise, in support of the slave-owning South.”
"Translation: There is no “reasonable right.” All conservatives are racists.". . .
E. Jeffrey Ludwig "The influence of Critical Race Theory is apparent in the trial of Darrell Brooks for the automobile massacre of six innocent people and injury to 60-plus individuals at a parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin in November 2021. . . ."Thus, the judge's motherly patience, as if toward a wayward or recalcitrant child, seemed to be in evidence throughout the proceedings in Wisconsin. At first, it seemed to me that this was good because it would serve to reassure the critics of our justice system that justice could be served in a white-dominated trial. However, the idea that justice is served by our willingness to be manipulated as proof of our "love" is inherently false, and I have retreated from my original respect for the judge and the ever-patient prosecution. This is, I believe, a fruit of feminism, which sees motherly love as a model of the best behavior. A more severe/fatherly tone would have been better.
"The defendant should not be allowed to repeat his endless objections to the proceedings. Rather, he should have been in the separated courtroom throughout and his microphone muted every time he made nonsensical objections. The judge should not feel that it is incumbent upon herself to meticulously explain her reasoning regarding many matters of law that Brooks does not understand and obviously does not want to understand. His attempts to argue with witnesses or with the judge should not only be explained to him as unlawful, but should not be allowed at all, since they only encourage the playacting and pretense of fairness — whereas the trial is, with his inordinate participation, more of a farce than a trial.
"By being a patient big sister or mom, the judge has inappropriately diluted her role as judge despite the momentary appeal of her beauty and kindly tone of voice and moderation. Justice requires more manly sobriety and professionalism."
American Thinker "Just as Donald Trump stripped the veneer off the pathological lying mainstream media from a businessman’s perspective, GOP Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake is destroying the MSM propagandists who have peppered her with ‘gotcha’ questions since she announced her candidacy for the office. Lake, who worked in the media for 30 years, knows all the tricks and traps practiced by the modern version of the fourth estate
"Yellow Journalism has a long history in the United States, but with the advent of social media, it has been put on steroids. Kari Lake is well-equipped to perform intellectual jiujitsu with the propaganda arm of the DNC. She successfully fended off a false-premise ‘election denier’ question and left the media with egg on their faces.". . .
"The devil is always in the details. Washington Post columnist Aaron Blake took a deep dive into the crosstabs on a recent New York Times/Sienna poll and found the data did not align with his worldview on threats to democracy. Perhaps someday, the coastal cabal of journalists who told workers in flyover country to “learn to code” will understand that the world looks very different between D.C. and Los Angeles than it does from their ivory towers. Today is not that day.
"The most adorable part of the analysis is Blake’s disbelief that the January 6 narrative pushed by D.C. Democrats, Twitter activists, and their stenographers in the corporate media is nowhere to be found in the results. If he had investigated a recent Harvard Harris poll, Blake would have known that only 7% of voters saw the Capitol riot, which happened almost two years ago, as an issue in the 2022 midterms.
"Instead, he found the evidence in the NYT/Sienna details. Voters do not see the Republican Party as a significant threat to democracy, despite the breathless coverage of the January 6 Committee and its recent “bombshell” cherry-picked text messages. Blake lamented:". . .
You are traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of donations and cronyism, buf of an unsounc mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of socialism, Your next stop, the Ocasio Cortez Zone
"Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been coming face-to-face with angry voters in her district, and we’re here for it.
"She doesn’t seem to like it very much… but isn’t that the point of protests?
The whole point of protesting is to make ppl uncomfortable.
Activists take that discomfort w/ the status quo & advocate for concrete policy changes. Popular support often starts small & grows.
To folks who complain protest demands make others uncomfortable… that’s the point.

But Republicans winning requires that voters not be discouraged by the polls and remember to vote, even when the media tell you it's hopeless, like in New York, Arizona and Pennsylvania.
That's when I discovered the iron rule of election polls: They will never, ever be wrong in favor of Republicans. Another is that polls will generally show the Democrat winning until the election gets close -- and the media finally start telling the truth.
Thus, for example, after being hectored for most of 1980 that Ronald Reagan was headed for another Goldwater-style fiasco, here's the sort of thing a teenager would have read in The New York Times weeks before he won a landslide victory against President Jimmy Carter, taking 489 electoral college votes to Carter's 49.". . .
. . .Mostly, I just want to wake up the morning after the election and find out Dr. Mehmet Oz has won in Pennsylvania and defeated that slovenly, goatee-sporting Michael Moore-wannabe, John Fetterman, who is passionate about only two things: not bathing and releasing vicious murderers. And that Lee Zeldin has beaten the demented, "release all the criminals!" New York governor, Kathy Hochul, with the crazy "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?" makeup.
The Biden-Fetterman rally is every bit as coherent as you'd imagine . . ."With numbers like that, Team Fetterman would have been better advised to avoid the risk of tying their candidate even closer to an unpopular president. Instead, in what looks like desperation, they rolled the dice. Did it pay off with a a dynamic show of strength and credibility from Biden?". . .
Uh-oh; hold on a minute': Stupid Party: Kevin McCarthy Says GOP Won’t Move to Impeach Biden or Administration Officials
. . ."McCarthy declared that Americans don’t “like impeachment used for political purposes at all,” and added that “the country wants to heal” and see a “system that actually works.” That means there will be no impeachment proceedings against Biden, or Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary and former Disinformation Governance Board supreme overlord Alejandro Mayorkas, or Gestapo chief Merrick Garland. Leave billions of dollars worth of materiel in Afghanistan for our enemies to use against us? No problem! Open the Southern border so that untold numbers of criminals and terrorists can waltz right into the country? Hey, we all make mistakes. Sic the woke FBI against parents protesting at school board meetings against the far-Left agenda in public schools? We all can get carried away! Impeachment? Forget it. It wouldn’t be the decent thing to do. When McCarthy was asked if he saw any grounds for impeaching any officials of this lawless and authoritarian administration, he answered: “I don’t see it before me right now."
This man just doesn't have the fire in his belly!
The Biden administration says it’ll keep working with Congress to support Kiev regardless of the outcome of November’s vote
Axios "The extensive assistance provided by Washington to Ukraine amid its conflict with Russia may be cut if the Republican Party takes control of Congress in the midterm elections on November 8, Axios has reported.
"Even the harshest critics of Vladimir Putin among the Republicans now acknowledge that there’s been a “noticeable shift away from what was once a broad bipartisan consensus” on providing aid to Kiev, the outlet reported on Wednesday.
"It cited House minority leader Kevin McCarthy, who told Punchbowl News earlier this week: “I think people are gonna be sitting in a recession and they’re not going to write a blank check to Ukraine. They just won’t do it.”
"Ukraine might be important, but it can’t be the only thing on the agenda of the US administration, he insisted.
"Republican Congressman Don Bacon also said he’d “noticed” a decline in support for Ukraine. “You see it a little bit on social media, you see it with some of our members,” he said.
"Bacon’s colleague Kelly Armstrong told Axios that the mood swing was likely a result of the feedback that the lawmakers had been getting from their constituents. “When people are seeing a 13% increase in grocery prices; energy, utility bills doubling... if you’re a border community and you’re being overrun by migrants and fentanyl, Ukraine is the furthest thing from your mind,” he pointed out.
"The website also cited a senior House Republican, who claimed that “after the $40 billion [in aid package in May], there were a lot of Republicans saying: ‘This is the last time I’m going to support Ukraine funding.’”
"In a comment to Axios, Congressman Jim Banks, who chairs the Republican Study Committee (RSC), pointed out that his party is going to focus on domestic issues after the midterms.". . .
