Biden’s Drag Queen Navy -

 

The American Spectator | USA News and Politics

Harpy Daniels; like him or you're a hater

"Anheuser-Busch, the beer manufacturer, has suffered a huge self-inflicted wound by employing transgender “woman” Dylan Mulvaney as a brand ambassador for Bud Lite.

"Anheuser-Busch has put the female vice president of marketing who thought up the Mulvaney campaign on a presumably permanent leave of absence and fired the ad agency that helped her do it. Anheuser-Busch has reportedly lost about $6 billion in market value and as much as 20 percent of its market share.

"That loss of market share and the reduced revenue that accompany it have been enough to bring Anheuser-Busch back to reality and make the company remember that its primary mission is to brew good beer. Unfortunately for our national security, there are no market protections against President Joe Biden’s political agenda, which is destroying the readiness and lethality of our military. recruit new sailors, which we’ll get back to in a moment.

"Back in the olden days of the 1990s, the military had a culture unto itself, defined by patriotism, tradition, and pride. Young men and women join the military for any number of reasons. Some do it to satisfy family tradition. Some join simply out of patriotism. Some join to get a job or to get away from their family and friends. Some join to earn GI Bill benefits, which is the only way they can go to college.

"Anheuser-Busch’s transgender mess came late to the party. From October 2022 to March 2023, the U.S. Navy made an active-duty drag queen one of its “digital ambassadors” to help recruit new sailors, which we’ll get back to in a moment.". . .

The Navy appointed active-duty drag queen Yeoman 2nd Class Joshua Kelley to be one of its “digital ambassadors” last October in a program that ran through March. Kelley goes by the stage name "Harpy Daniels" and claims to be “non-binary.” He has reportedly performed his drag queen act aboard several ships.

  . . ."When people serve in the military, they have great pride in what they do. It may be something like what the special forces do, which nobody else can. It may take enormous skill like flying — or repairing — a fighter aircraft. The pride may simply be from being a part of something bigger than yourself.

"A lot of that pride was dashed to pieces because of Biden’s bugging out of Afghanistan, which cost 13 lives and left hundreds of Americans behind, along with about $7 billion in weapons. If you’re in the military, speaking out about that debacle and asking for accountability among the generals is a sure way to get into big trouble.". . .

Turning Point Action
While the U.S. is hiring drag queens to boost military recruitment Communist China is laughing at the free entertainment we’re providing for them while they grow and train their forces.

How do the British subjects like their new king?

 Christopher Monckton of Brenchley    "Here is an essay in pictures taken in the tent city that sprang up along the Mall that leads to Buckingham Palace the day before the coronation of King Charles III.  Some of the fans of constitutional monarchy had been there for days.  These pictures show people of all ages and from all walks of life.  Movingly, they show a nation at ease with itself and with its king, and with its sense of humor intact after the recent years of turmoil. [UPDATE: The American Thinker system purges images after six weeks. If the pictures for this post are gone, you can still find them here.]

"No British event would be complete without a tea party:"



Christopher, Third Viscount Monckton of Brenchley, is a British peer and a well known expert on climate change.  He is the author of some two dozen learned papers on climate sensitivity and mitigation economics.   Sort of a British John Kerry, one would surmise.




The Morning Briefing: Democrats Are Holding Dress Rehearsals for More 'Summer of Love' Riots

 

Here it goes again. Stupid people riot for stupid things. TD

PJ Media  . . ."Another thing that’s important to ponder is which parts of their established playbook they might trot out. It’s a thick playbook, to be sure, and there’s a good chance that they’ll be throwing the whole thing at the GOP to keep President LOLEightyonemillion around well past his expiration date. The cabal running Biden’s brain is at this moment prepping for whichever nominee the Republicans eventually throw at them.

"Their candidates may be trainwrecks, but their game plan will be rock solid.

"Because the beating heart of the 21st century Democrats is communism, civil unrest is a favorite tool of theirs. It provides a lot of cover for a lot of what they would like to keep in the shadows.

"Many expect some sort of trouble in the streets to pop up next year just before the election. But what if they decide that more is better and want to kick things off this year? Maybe just give it a trial run.

"Kevin chronicled some of the responses to Jordan Neely’s death that are going on in New York:

Neely is the poster boy to kick off the 2023 riot season that the left is hungry to start. He is black, homeless, and mentally ill. Even more mouthwatering to the Marxists, he was killed by a white military veteran.

Liberals began protesting Neely’s death. The protests soon turned violent, and several anarchists were arrested. The number of protestors is growing — just like we saw after George Floyd died.

Other meatheads threatened to shoot people. Scores of protestors jumped onto the subway tracks to halt incoming trains.

UPDATE: Media botched the Allen, TX shooter; A deeper look at shopping mall shooting in Allen, Texas, second-deadliest in 2023

TD spent hours looking for a source that gave us an accurate image of the Allen shooter; here is an update.

. . ."And just like another clockwork, the doddering old fool who occupies The bully pulpit weighed in on Sunday with these remarks:". . ."Not a word, of course, about Garcia's mental health."
. . ."So with the MSM rushing to write articles with little or no facts, with it always pushing its 'white bad' agenda, and with Biden purposely ignoring the elephant in the room, it's no wonder his and their ratings are in the tank.


Biden and his Democrat friends will savor all this.

Curiously, the Washington Post, a publication that cares more about pushing the Democrat Party’s agenda than the truth, quickly linked the brown-skinned Hispanic shooter to “White Supremacy.”


USA Today   "Federal authorities are investigating the background and motive of a gunman who killed eight people and wounded seven others after opening fire at an outdoor shopping mall Saturday in Allen, Texas.

"Law enforcement is reviewing social media accounts they believe were used by the gunman, identified as Mauricio Garcia, 33, who was killed by a police officer. Social media posts expressed interest in white supremacist and neo-Nazi views, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press.

"The shooting is this year's second-deadliest.

"The gunman carried multiple weapons and had others in his car. His links to white supremacy reportedly included social media posts as well as a patch on his chest that read “RWDS,” an acronym for the phrase “Right Wing Death Squad,” which is popular among right-wing extremists and white supremacy groups.". . .

 Sen. Cornyn plays horrific past video of Biden and Clarence Thomas... calls it ‘A burning memory’   


Speaking of Joe: Biden accuser Tara Reade: 'If something happens to me, all roads lead to Joe Biden' | Just The News   . . ."I want to make something clear. If something happens to me, all roads lead to Joe Biden," Reade tweeted Sunday. "Joe Biden and DNC political machine threats, bullying and intimidation over the last three years will not work.

"She also said that she is not suicidal, nor a foreign agent and she only decided to tell the truth and testify under oath in Congress about her experience working for Biden.

"The president has denied allegations of the assault since Reade came forward in 2020 about it.

"In March, Republican Reps. Matt Gaetz (Fla.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) invited Reade to testify to the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, but it is unclear whether that will happen.

"When asked about the possible interview, a committee spokesperson told Politico that the panel is "focused on the Biden family’s business schemes and bank records.' "

What RFK Jr. Needs to Do to Be Taken Seriously

 Jack Cashill  

RFK Jr.’s memoir leaves out important chapter — his womanizing

"As much I respect Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s stand on Big Science and suppression of speech, I remember the RFK, Jr. of just nine years ago who championed both. 

"In September 2014, Kennedy joined the chaotic throngs marching through the still viable Manhattan in their Sisyphean protest against climate change. In speaking of politicians who challenged conventional warming wisdom -- “contemptible human beings” to a person -- Kennedy wished out loud that “there were a law they could be punished under.”

"If the politicos were still immune from punishment, industrialists, according to Kennedy, were not. Kennedy focused his wrath on two of them, the brothers Charles and David Koch. “They are enjoying making themselves billionaires by impoverishing the rest of us,” ranted Kennedy. “Do I think the Koch brothers should be tried for reckless endangerment? Absolutely.”

"At the time Kennedy attacked the brothers, Koch industries was doing about $115 billion in annual business and employing 60,000 people. Unlike Kennedy’s buccaneer grandfather who swindled much of his fortune, Koch Industries made its mark doing real, gritty, sweaty, red-state kind of work. They have processed and transported and traded in oil, coal, fertilizer, pulp, fibers, polymers, building products, paper, electronic components, pollution control equipment, and beef. Without industries like Koch, America grinds to a halt.

"I would like to think that Kennedy has had his mind opened in the decade since his ritual defamation of the Kochs, but I am not at all sure he has. In his otherwise admirable book, The Real Anthony Fauci, he speaks of climate change just once and then inanely.". . .

WATCH: Newt Gingrich Shreds Fox News Contributor Juan Williams' Silly Attempt to Defend the Bidens –

  RedState   "This week’s edition of “Fox News Sunday” was pay-per-view-quality stuff, with Fox contributor Juan Williams woefully attempting to defend Joe and Hunter Biden and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich patiently waiting to obliterate Williams and his foolishness.

"Williams was awful, right out of the gate:

We know Hunter Biden’s an addict — we know he’s an alcoholic. We know he’s had sex addiction problems. We know he’s not the son you would have.

But Joe Biden acted as a father trying to protect his son and try to help his son. I don’t think anyone’s gonna fault him for that.

"Williams then went straight to Whataboutism:which, other than hypocrisy, is the bane of mankind. (OK, maybe that’s a bit hyperbolic, but I detest it.)

But you compare that to the graft and the grifting from Trump golf courses, Trump hotels, Chinese shoe deals with the daughter, [and] the son-in-law getting billions from the Saudis. It’s unbelievable.

Even this week you have to compare it to the trouble we’ve heard about in New York with the sexual assault case against Trump.

But this is what Hunter Biden has come down to now. He is a distraction, a shield against all the trouble that Trump is experiencing.

"Whataboutism aside, that last preposterous line was a bald-faced lie, and I suspect even Williams knew it was when he said it, but Democrats do desperate Democrat things when the walls start to close in — and the walls are definitely closing in on Joe Biden’s crackhead son, as well as “The Big Guy,” too.". . .


. . ."Democrats and their lackeys in the sock-puppet media can play whataboutism, deflect, and obfuscate themselves silly, but the facts remain: Hunter Biden is likely to be indicted and the White House walls are closing in Daddy Joe — aka: “The Big Guy” — as well. And regardless of the outcome for Biden the Senior, Barack Obama said it best: “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f**k things up.”

"Little did Obama know that Joe already “f**ked things up” when he was O’s vice president."

Bud Light: "Trans-On-Cans"

 

States Fight Back against the Trans Conspiracy to Erase Women - American Thinker 

 . . ."On the fourth front — the sports arena — the transgender movement wholeheartedly endorses the right of males identifying as female to compete with females, robbing the latter of trophies and scholarships.  The supportive Biden administration is making new Title IX rules to prevent states from legislating against male transgenders competing in women's sports.  Trans swimmers like "Lia" Thomas — who destroyed 12-time NCAA all-American swimmer Riley Gaines's records — clearly have a competitive advantage by virtue of biology.  Former Olympic athlete Bruce (now Caitlin) Jenner refuses to play in all-women tournaments, acknowledging her advantage and bluntly saying that "wokeness is killing women's sports."  Female athletes like Payton McNabb, a high school volleyball player, have been seriously injured playing against males.  A trans athlete spiked a ball into her face, causing a concussion, a neck injury, partial paralysis, and impaired vision.". . .

CROUERE: As Bud Light Goes Woke, Customers Go Away (thehayride.com)   . . ."The backlash has been so pronounced that an Anheuser-Busch merchandiser filmed a video in a grocery store showing stacks of Bud Light on the shelves. He said he has never seen such “little sales” of the product. He claimed it was “heartbreaking” because the lack of sales is hurting his ability to “feed his family.” Instead of blaming the public, he blamed Anheuser-Busch for doing what “they did” and not knowing their “clientele.”. . .

VIDEO: Kennedy Wipes Out Biden Bureaucrat On Climate Change Nuttery

 VIDEO: Kennedy Wipes Out Biden Bureaucrat On Climate Change Nuttery (thehayride.com)

"This will infuriate you, as it’s a full exposition of just how dishonest and ridiculous the people running our country are.

"Yesterday in a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Deputy Energy Secretary David Turk showed up to sing the praises of the Biden administration’s efforts to fight “global warming,” and specifically to make America “carbon neutral” by 2050.

"The interesting thing behind that narrative is that America is already “carbon neutral.” Our plants and trees soak up more carbon than our animals and machines put out into the world. So we actually don’t need to spend any money at all to achieve this goal.

"But Turk is trying to achieve a different goal, which is to make our industries and our economy as a whole “carbon neutral.” And that unrealistic goal, which involves doing wasteful and probably environmentally harmful things like trading reliable carbon-based energy sources (coal, oil and gas) for “renewables” and specifically solar and wind – the component for production of which are generally made in China using methods far more violative of the environment than oil and gas wells and pipelines are, he says will cost trillions of dollars.

"But it’ll save us money on net, he says, without explaining exactly how. The old line about the glaciers melting and our shorelines plunging under the oceans aside, which frankly is not supported by any real evidence – the “hockey stick” computer model of global warming producing a catastrophic sea level rise has long been debunked, and the small rise in global temperature the climate change advocates currently hang their hats on simply argues for future dollars spent on coastal protection, seawalls and the like which certainly wouldn’t necessitate “tens of trillions of dollars” as he says.

"John Kennedy is generally not one to put up with steaming piles of B.S. laid at his feet, so he starts asking Turk questions for which he is quite bereft of answers. How much will fundamentally transforming our economy to be “carbon neutral” cost? No answer. How do you know this money will pay for itself? How much will the effort spent at “carbon neutrality” lower world temperatures?". . .

Man Charged With Hate Crime After Allegedly Shooting Two Strangers Execution Style Because They Were White

 Because They Were White | The Daily Wire


"A black man in Tulsa, Oklahoma, was charged with murdering two white men in what appeared to be execution-style slayings last month, and authorities are calling it a racially motivated hate crime.

"Carlton Gilford, a homeless man, allegedly shot two men in the back of the head at two separate locations on April 18, according to the Tulsa Police Department, Fox News reported. Lundin Hathcock, 35, was shot around 9:40 a.m. at the Rudisill Library, and James McDaniel, 55, was shot at a QuikTrip convenience store. Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler said that evidence suggests Gilford shot both men because they were white, and he has been charged with a hate crime for his alleged killings.". . .

‘Just Brutal for President Biden!’ George Stephanopoulos Breaks Down Jawdropping New Poll Showing Trump Clobbering Biden

Who are the 36% that like Biden for president?

  Mediaite  "There was not a bit of sugarcoating, Sunday, from ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos on a brand new poll from ABC and the Washington Post.

“This poll is just brutal for President Biden!” Stephanopoulos said.

Indeed, the silver linings were just about impossible to find for the White House. The poll put Biden’s approval rating at 36 percent — down 6 points from February and an all-time low in that particular survey. The survey also showed Biden getting trounced in a hypothetical 2024 matchup with former President Donald Trump, 45-38.

Stephanopoulos had trouble processing the support for Trump. The poll found roughly 20 percent of those who believe Trump should face criminal charges in New York over the Stormy Daniels hush money payouts would still support him in the 2024 election.

“I’ve got to admit I have a hard time wrapping my head around that,” Stephanopoulos said. “You’ve got one in five people who say they believe President Trump should face criminal charges, but they would still vote for him.”. . .

Biden Administration waging pointless war on our comfort in the name of climate -

Van Gogh Cuts Off Own Ear So He Won’t Be Able To Hear Screaming Climate Change Protesters | Babylon Bee
"London; Sources at the National Gallery revealed today that a self-portrait of Vincent van Gogh cut its own ear off so that it would no longer have to hear the anguished cries of climate change protesters tossing tomato soup on his masterpieces.". . .

 American Thinker  "Looking forward to using your air-conditioning this summer to keep you from misery and lack of sleep? Well, you might have some issues. You see, the Biden administration has declared war on comfort. It’s not just gas stoves, leaf blowers, and lawnmowers the Biden-ites are coming for.  No siree. They are also bound and determined to eventually make air-conditioning prohibitively expensive for all but their coastal elite friends and allies.

"New Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations are limiting supplies of freon and other refrigerants, because they are allegedly contributors to “climate change.” The new production quotas have driven up the price of these refrigerants by about 300%, meaning that a recharge may cost $100 to $500 more than before these regulations took effect, depending on how much replacement refrigerant is needed. 

"But wait, there’s more! The coolant quotas get even more stringent next year. Moreover, other new EPA rules are directed at those who service air conditioners. Some of these pertain to the types of containers in which refrigerants can be housed and transported. And all of which are going to impose additional costs that will need to be passed on to the consumer.

"So, if you balk at the price of refilling or repairing your air-conditioning unit this summer, perhaps you could consider purchasing a new one. Unfortunately, Department of Energy (DOE) efficiency standards will be piled on to the EPA measures, and the combined effect of these excessively stringent requirements will be to raise the price of new A/C equipment, as well.". . .
