Johns Hopkins Medicine staff given roadmap to navigate dozens of pronouns: ‘faerself, ve, xe"    
What does a doctor do when prescribing medication or providing nutrition guidelines to a woman who identifies as a man? Does he go with reality and prescribe/advise according to her actual biology? Or does he recommend that she eat like a man and prescribe medication based on a man's size and weight? When Johns Hopkins truthfully answers this question, it will learn how to handle the pronoun issue.

Lying Biden Falsely Claims He Re-established Alliance Trump Revived In 2017 (Video)

  The Lid

"During a press conference in Hiroshima, Japan, on Sunday, Joe Biden, the evil corrupt, lying, demented fraud occupying the White House, took credit for re-establishing an alliance that former President Trump revived in 2017.

“I doubt many people…would’ve said that two years after being elected, I’d be able to convince India, Australia, Japan, and the United States to form an organization called the Quad,” Biden told those gathered."

New messages show Bidens offering 'safe harbor' to Hunter as he flails over scandalous reports


 NY Post   "In 2018, Hunter Biden’s world was collapsing.

"The New York Times had run a story on one of his shady deals with the Chinese and his father, then vice president, was pulled into the vortex.

"It appears that Hunter was in a free fall and his uncle Jim Biden reached out in newly discovered messages to offer him a “safe harbor.”

"The exchange is an insight into the train wreck of the life of the scion of one of the most powerful families in the country.

"However, it is also insight into a world of influence peddling where millions of dollars simply evaporated into the coffers of the Biden family.

"On their face, the messages seem to contradict public statements from President Biden on the foreign influence-peddling that used to fund Hunter’s drug-infused, self-destructive lifestyle.

"The Times story caused panic in the Biden family.

"Despite a largely supportive media, the Bidens have long been known for influence-peddling.

"Jim Biden has been repeatedly criticized for marketing his access to his brother in pitches to clients.". . .

From comments to this post:
 Well, the guy wasn't living the life he wanted. He was being used as a tool, for the whole KornPopppJoe Krime Famileee, to hide corrupt financial dealings & launder moolah for all of them, his Daddie, being the Primary Biggg Guy. The pressure was too much for him, in addition to his family being creepily dysfunctional...🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️
  • Oh please, he was living the high life in every respect.

    Joe and Jim could have done a real intervention, but that would have interrupted the gravy train.

School official laments electric buses cost ‘5X more’ and are riddled with ‘performance issues’

 Heather Hamilton


"One Michigan school official admitted his district’s move to using electric buses was less than the government has touted it to be.

"Emile Lauzzana, the environmental sustainability director of Michigan’s fourth-largest school district, recently told the Ann Arbor Public Schools Board of Education that the district’s electric bus fleet has had “a lot of downtime and performance issues.”

“ 'It’s been a tough 2 1/2 years with this program,” Lauzzana said.

“ 'We’ve been learning a lot about this technology,” Lauzzana also said. “Electric buses are approximately five times more expensive than regular buses, and the electrical infrastructure, which was originally estimated to be only about $50,000, give or take, for those four buses ended up being more like $200,000."

"Lauzzana explained the district attempted to utilize "Vehicle to Grid" interconnection, which helps push energy back to the grid when buses are not being used, but that the “technology was not working.” . . .

That was Then: Soon This Will be Too -

  American Thinker   "Many of us feel like we’re swimming against a torrent that is rushing toward a massive waterfall. We can hear the water crashing over the edge and slamming onto the rocks below, and it’s getting louder and louder.

"We look to history for guidance and find that at first glance it’s no help at all. It merely reminds us that empires fall and usually due to the stupidity, and/or perfidy of those in charge, which is terrifyingly all too familiar. But let’s narrow that focus a little. No other nation has ever been built solely on a principle -- that each human being has an inalienable right to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” It is also true that no nation in history has maintained a constitution anywhere near as long as has the United States. Ours has been functioning, more or less, as intended, for over 234 years, whereas other nation's average is just 17 years. We must have gotten something right. 

"We can also look back at our history and find times when things looked this grim, and yet, we came through, we won. What chance did we have against England back in the 18th century? We had to be nuts to think we could successfully divorce ourselves from the most powerful nation on earth at the time. We weren’t even a full-fledged country yet. We had no standing army, no organized system of taxation, very little in the way of infrastructure, and only the most rudimentary methods of communication. Our forefathers had only three things going for them: the British soldiers were 3,000 miles from home; King George III was mentally unstable; and these first Americans took God seriously -- and had since the early 1600s, and it doesn’t take much looking to see that God controls history.

"Let’s look back at the Civil War. How hopeless that had to be for everyone involved. After all, it was fought on our soil, so, like the War for Independence, the battles would be fought in people’s backyards, their schools, and churches turned into field hospitals, the soldiers billeted in their homes. Medicine had yet to catch up to weaponry, so both sides suffered more casualties than ever before at a time when surgeons were not capable of mending soldiers -- they could only saw off the injured limbs. The horror is almost unimaginable. And yet, right prevailed, the Union was saved, the slaves were freed, and the country kept on growing.". . .

Dianne Feinstein as the living embodiment of the Democrat party -

 Bookworm Room "Her decline and fall seem to match the Dem party’s trajectory over the decades. Thus, she’s a caricature, not just of herself, but of her party."

This is the lady who trashed Judge Kavanaugh?

. . ."Indeed, one of the reasons everyone I knew was a Democrat was because I lived in a Jewish world. We may not have belonged to a synagogue, but 90% of my parents’ friends were Jewish, and they knew which California party discriminated against Jews. DiFi, by the way, is genetically Jewish and, while not religious (and a graduate of the Covenant of the Sacred Heart High School), she still identifies as Jewish.

"Attractive, vibrant, intelligent DiFi was the embodiment of that Democrat party.

"Over the years, though, just as DiFi has decayed, so has the Democrat party. It’s no longer a party that represents ordinary people within the relative confines of the Constitution. Instead, it’s a Maoist organization that represents the very rich nomenklatura, the criminal class, the race hustlers, and the activist LGBTQ++ crowd. It’s rotten inside and out, broken and hideous. DiFi has come to look like what the Democrat party is. No wonder Democrats are desperate to force her to retire. She reminds Americans that the party is decrepit and oozes a fatal corruption.

"DiFi should have left politics while she still had dignity. And it’s high time that Americans leave the Democrat party. Both DiFi and the Dems are walking corpses and need to be retired.

"By the way, if you want another analogy, DiFi’s decline also symbolizes San Francisco’s collapse from a beautiful city into a scary hellhole."

Is Michelle Obama going to replace Senator Feinstein to jumpstart a presidential run? - American Thinker 

. . .You also have to consider that the Dems have few other choices; they have no bench or people that are even likable or decent.  That’s why they have to constantly point fingers at the pro-freedom right. They can pretend that they can be ‘successful’ at rerunning the 2020 playbook, but the people are sick of the COVID scam and no matter how much they try to distract, the fact is that the Biden regime has been an unmitigated disaster for the country." . . .

Hank Johnson, D-Ga., that stationing 8,000 U.S. military personnel on Guam would cause the small island to “become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize.”

"Currently serving Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, once proclaimed that the U.S. Constitution is 400 years old. And as a member of the House Science Committee, during a visit to the California Institute of Technology’s Jet Propulsion Lab, she asked a NASA scientist whether the Mars Pathfinder probe had photographed the flag that astronaut Neil Armstrong left behind in 1969. Armstrong had, of course, left the flag on the moon, not on Mars. No manned spacecraft has visited Mars.". . .

George Bush, MIA

 Don Surber

"As Durham’s Report exposes the lies about RussiaGate and the truth about Obama using the FBI as his personal police unfolds, there is one silence that roars above the white noise of denial. George Walker Bush has not said a word. Not one darned word. He has been one silent lamb while the Democrat Party ran roughshod over our political institutions — weaponizing the IRS, the FBI, FISA, the media, the courts and the border.

"Hundreds of Trump’s voters were jailed over a protest at the Capitol over the counting of the votes and we have not heard his protest. Indeed, Bush has condemned these protesting patriots as threats to America. Most — if not all — of them were Bush supporters who voted for his father twice and two times for him, too.

"Never has Bush defended President Trump from the outrageous lies and unprecedented illegal spying on him as a private citizen.

"Bush was silent when the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago. I want his home (as well as Biden’s, Obama’s and Clinton’s) SWATTED at 4 AM on 21 JAN 2025 by whoever the Republican president is. Let them reap the whirlwind they sowed.

"I get that President Trump was rough on Jeb! in the 2016 debates and family honor is at stake, but Clinton was meaner on his father in 1992 and George W. Bush has no problem being palsy-walsy with him. Partisan politics washes away once you become president because now you are a member of an exclusive club.

"Donald Trump earned his way in but GWB won’t allow him into the club. Trump’s blackballed — after years of Obama and his minions spying and lying on him. ". . .

Arrest of Chicago ‘Peacekeeper’ police substitute demonstrates the folly of ‘defund the police’ -

Thank you, AOC and Democrats

  American Thinker  "A man wearing the vest of the new “Peacekeeper” corps deployed over the Memorial Day weekend to stem the mayhem on a holiday weekend that has become an opportunity for murder tallies to soar, was arrested for a violent attack. David Struett of the Chicago Sun-Times reports:

A man in a neon “peacekeepers” vest beat up and robbed a man in Little Village on Friday night, police said, as dozens of violence prevention workers fanned out across Chicago over the Memorial Day weekend.

Oscar Montes, 31, was in a group of seven or eight people that pulled a man from a car and punched and kicked him on the ground in the 2300 block of South Washtenaw Avenue, Cook County prosecutors said in a Sunday bond hearing.

Montes took the man’s cellphone and struck him over the head with it, and another person stole the man’s wallet, prosecutors said.

The man’s face and ribs were fractured, and his eye was damaged to the point that he suffered partial blindness, prosecutors said.

"One of the many fantasies of the progressives is that there is something inherently wrong or dangerous with police.  Instead of armed police capable of using the threat of violence to restrain offenders, unarmed social-worker-like alternatives can reduce violence by sympathizing with offenders and understanding the root causes of their behavior.  

"The Chicago Police Department’s 1,700 vacancies are so catastrophic that Democrat politicians are desperate to deflect blame for their support of defund the police and anti-cop measures." . . . 

Gavin Newsom's Claim About CA Being a Free State Blows Up in His Face


 Gavin Newsom's Claim About CA Being a Free State Blows Up in His Face (townhall.com)   "Gov. Gavin Newsom doesn’t like it when you trash his state. The blue bastion has become one of the states whose residents are most likely to flee due to the state's burdensome taxes and hyper-regulatory nature. Comedian Bill Maher remarked about the red tape on his show, mentioning the painfully slow process it took to get a permit to build his solar shed, which looked no bigger than an ordinary Porta Potty. Newsom either doesn’t know this or doesn’t care because he embarrassed himself at the California Democratic Party’s Re-Organizing State Convention, where he was joined by Nancy Pelosi, Ted Lieu, and other communists.

"Newsom had the stones to say, “This is the free state of California!…Eat your heart out Florida and Texas!”

"He was promptly roasted for this patently false remark. Also, has he forgotten that his state banned books?". . . 



 

Yes, Democrats Are Coming For Your Favorite Appliances

  Issues & Insights


"Back in January, an official in the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission let slip that the Biden administration was coming after Americans’ gas stoves.

" 'There was an immediate, huge public backlash. In response, Joe Biden and his lackeys took to the media circuit saying the claim was a lie, MAGA-created fake news – the administration had no intention to ban gas stoves. The media fawningly parroted Biden, et al.’s claims that Republicans were lying about gas stoves – take a chill pill, your gas stoves are safe, said the media.

"Weeks later, events proved that it was Biden and the Democrats who were lying when, with little attention paid to it by the media, the administration published energy efficiency and emission rules that banned the sale of all but the most expensive gas stoves. And, going further, the Biden administration has allowed cities and states to impose their own bans on gas hook ups and appliances.
"If only the White House had stopped there it would have been bad enough, but it didn’t!

"In the run up to the gas stove ban, and subsequent to it, the Biden administration has unleased the biggest, most comprehensive, strictest regulatory onslaught ever on home appliances. As the Washington Times documents, “President Biden’s green energy goals have resulted in an array of new efficiency rules for a slew of household appliances,” including microwaves, air purifiers, and even toothbrush chargers. Also among the appliances soon to be regulated out of existence or fundamentally altered are, gas furnaces, air conditioners, lightbulbsrefrigerators, clothes washers, and gasoline- and diesel-powered cars.". . .

Liz Cheney booed by grads who turned their chairs backwards at Colorado college commencement

 Liz Cheney booed by grads who turned their chairs backwards at Colorado college commencement - American Thinker  


 "Once again, Liz Cheney is finding herself unpopular.

"This time, the Bronx-style cheer happened in Colorado, at a college commencement, once again, among the wokesters of the left.

"According to the Daily Mail:

Graduates booed and turned their chairs away from former U.S Rep. Liz Cheney as she delivered the commencement address at Colorado College on Sunday. 

Cheney repeated her fierce criticisms of former President Trump but steered clear of talking about his 2024 reelection campaign or her own political future.

The Wyoming Republican blasted her House Republican colleagues for not doing enough to combat Trump's lies that the 2020 election was stolen.

Cheney implored the new college graduates to not compromise when it comes to the truth and blasted one of the election-denying attorneys who worked for Trump after the election for allegedly telling a gathering of Republicans that 'it is crucially important to make sure that college students don't vote.'

While many students and parents in the audience applauded throughout Cheney's remarks, some opposing the choice of Cheney as speaker booed and turned their chairs away from the stage when she spoke. 

"Wow. This isn't the first time the left has let her have it. I wrote about a scoring from the left that she got on Twitter regarding her remarks claiming that any presidential candidate who would consider pardoning any January 6 protestors was unfit to be president, in this piece here.". . .

Just in time for Memorial Day, Hanoi Jane is back from the dead -

 American history is arguably the richest in the world, for many reasons, one of which includes the uniquely self-sacrificing character of the men who have fought and died for causes bigger than themselves. Fonda hated these men in the height of her Hanoi Jane era, and she hates them still now. 

American Thinker  "Turns out all that whimpering regret about her Hanoi Jane days was…just acting.

"While at the Cannes film festival last week, Jane Fonda took the opportunity to wield her pseudo-morality like a billy club, and launched a campaign against “white men” because in her estimation, like every other useful idiot, “white men” are to blame for all of society’s woes — whether they’re even real or simply perceived, it doesn’t matter to Fonda.

"With a puffed up ego, Fonda said:

We have to arrest and jail those men — they’re all men.

It’s good for us all to realize, there would be no climate crisis if there was no racism.

There would be no climate crisis if there was no patriarchy.

White men are the things that matter and then everything else is at the bottom.

So when I say that I’m fighting the climate crisis, I also feel that I’m fighting patriarchy and racism.

"What a sense of justice, mulling arrests and imprisonments for those who have committed no crime except being “white” and male.

"Sporting a new look (Fonda now has purple hair, yes really), she reiterated her commitment to the “climate crisis” and her role in the war against the evil “white men” persecuting those “poor people of color” — didn’t anyone tell her that using the term “people of color” is akin to erasing Black people? Uh oh, who’s the racist victimizer now?

"Also, isn’t Jane Fonda like three husbands and countless flings deep in “White men”? Her outrage seems a little disingenuous, wouldn’t you say?" . . .
