Libs Demanded Sarah Huckabee Sanders Remove a Cross Drawn by Her Kids. Here's Her Response. (townhall.com)

Gov. Sanders had shared a photo of her kids and their artwork to social media, which naturally upset the usual suspects. 

"Joyless leftists, as they are prone to do, got all triggered when Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders' kids used chalk to draw a cross surrounded by colorful stained glass-like shapes on the driveway at the governor's mansion this week. 

" 'I have received your letter and my answer is no," Sanders wrote. "I will not erase the beautiful cross my kids drew in chalk on the driveway of the Governor's Mansion or remove my post on social media, and I will not now or ever hide that I am a Christian, saved by Christ."

"Sanders continued, explaining that Americans United is "wrong to claim that our Constitution prevents public officials, let alone their families, from making earnest expressions of religious faith. Our founding documents are riddled with religious language - stating plainly that the very rights you claim to defend are 'endowed by our Creator,'" Sanders reminded. "You are asking me to ignore that truth and hide a crucial part of my identity and the identity of my kids. That, I will not do," she reiterated.". . .

Mike Pence attacks DeSantis for ending woke Disney's special privileges in Florida -

  LifeSite (lifesitenews.com)

Pence compared DeSantis to the 'radical left' for ending Disney's special district status without explaining why he thinks a private corporation is legally entitled to such a privilege.

"Former Vice President and 2024 presidential candidate Mike Pence took a shot at GOP presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida on Tuesday over the latter’s disputes with woke entertainment giant Disney, suggesting that revoking the corporation’s special legal privileges in the Sunshine State was “following in the footsteps of the radical left.”

"Disney, which for years has been infusing its mainstream children’s and family entertainment offerings with pro-LGBT messages and other left-wing “identity” themes, took a hardline stance in March 2022 against Florida’s Parental Rights in Education law, which bans schools from teaching children in kindergarten through third grade about transgenderism and other sexuality-related issues, limits discussions of sexuality for older children to “age appropriate” content and requires parents to be informed of any changes that could affect their child’s physical, emotional, or mental well-being.

"The ordeal backfired on the company, with the law passing (and later being expanded) despite Disney’s efforts, and DeSantis going on to eliminate the self-governing “special district” status for Disney’s Florida theme park, which exempted it from various state regulations and conferred other financial benefits.

“ 'Allowing a corporation to control its own government is bad policy, especially when the corporation makes decisions that impact an entire region,” DeSantis said in February. “This legislation ends Disney’s self-governing status, makes Disney live under the same laws as everybody else, and ensures that Disney pays its debts and fair share of taxes.”

"The move was met with cheers from social conservatives but derision from more establishment-aligned Republicans such as House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley, who tried to frame the battle as government taking punitive action against private business." . . .

Mike Pence: Don't Abandon Free Market Principles (reason.com)   . . ."But the answer to such challenges is not to demand government intervention—it is to use free market principles to fix the free market itself.

"That is exactly what is happening around the country. After Bud Light drew controversy for embracing progressive gender politics, sales plummeted nationwide. In recent weeks, the same thing has happened to Target for similar reasons. Shares of both companies have suffered substantial losses. Without government lifting a finger, woke companies are being called to account for their ideological excesses.

"Another prominent example is Disney, a company that trumpeted its left-wing values by condemning conservative education and parental rights reforms in Florida.". . .

12-Year-Olds in Drag: A ‘Kids Only’ Pride Carnival in Indiana

If IYG is openly promoting both this content and behavior, what else is happening behind closed doors when the cameras are turned off and the parents are away? 

  The American Spectator | USA News and Politics    "An Indiana LGBTQ youth group sponsored an annual carnival for minors and young adults between the ages of 12 and 20, refusing parents entry while the youth hosted a drag show. 

"The Indiana Youth Group (IYG) is a nonprofit organization located in Indianapolis that seeks to “foster community” and provide “programming that empowers LGBTQ+ youth.” As part of its mission, the group hosts an annual carnival to celebrate Pride Month. (READ MORE: Pride Month? Take Pride in Your Traditional Family Values)

"It is unaffiliated with any religious organization or church. 

"According to IYG’s website, carnival activities include food, inflatable obstacle courses, face painting, dunk tanks, and a “King and Queen” drag show hosted by some of the youth at the event. As if drag shows for kids weren’t objectionable enough, the website stated that “only youth ages 12-20 with a valid ID will be permitted” entry for the event. The age of consent in Indiana is 16, meaning that half of the listed ages can legally consent to sexual activity. 

"In response to The American Spectator’s request for comment, IYG said that the event had already been covered and that IYG had nothing else to add to that coverage.

The Carnival as Another Example of Grooming

"IYG’s hosting this carnival demonstrates another example of the organization’s grooming behavior. According to Lewis & Llewellyn LLP, a law firm specializing in prosecuting sexual abuse, there are six stages of sexual grooming — and IYG appears to meet all six. 

"The first step in grooming a child begins with targeting. “Child molesters target victims in households with less adult supervision, parents with drug or alcohol addictions, marital discord, domestic violence, or a history of emotional and mental problems,” Lewis & Llewellyn’s website explains.

LGBT “Culture War” Town Hall Hosted By #WalkAway Campaign Returns to NYC Pride Weekend To “Fight AGAINST Radical LGBTQIA+ Movement”

"#WalkAway Campaign returns to NYC Saturday, June 24th, for Pride Weekend to host the LGBT Culture War Town Hall, which includes a panel discussion with Q&A from the audience.

"Conservative activist Brandon Straka has assembled a panel of LGBT culture commentators who have walked away from the political left, the extremist LGBTQIA+ movement, and their relentless assault on American culture.

"The Town Hall is designed to give a voice to those in the LGBT community who: “have had enough of the radical LGBTQIA2+ agenda of targeting and sexualizing children” and “using LGBT people to force an extremist ideology on America’s youth.”

"The Event Page states:

We want a community that values every LGBT person’s right to think for themselves…without fear of being ostracized by the “party of tolerance.”

We are tired of being pawns for the fake news media to control with hate crime hoaxes and lies about our lives and our rights being in constant danger from one political party.

The greatest danger to the LGBT Community are the constant lies, manipulations, exploitations, and fear mongering created by powerful forces WITHIN our community and the media.

We’re going to change all that." . . .

Whistleblower's memo reveals FBI knew contents of Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop for years

 Whistleblower's memo reveals FBI knew contents of Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop for years | Inside the IRS laptop debacle. Whistleblower's memo reveals the FBI knew the contents of Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop but sat on the information for years so it did not embarrass father Joe in run-up to 2020 election; Daily Mail Online

"The FBI first learned of Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop, full of incriminating data, in October 2019, an IRS memo shows.

"The memo, written by senior IRS Criminal Investigation official Gary Shapley in 2020, reveals how senior law enforcement officers sat on the treasure trove of evidence from the First Son’s computer and waited months before handing over mere excerpts to investigators working the case.

"It also directly contradicts an open letter from 51 top former intelligence officials published weeks ahead of the 2020 presidential election which dismissed the laptop as having ‘all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation’.". . .

. . ."A month later on January 6, 2020, ‘forensic computer people at FBI started analysis’ on the devices, the memo says.

"The memo said that the forensics team were able to unlock some encrypted messages on the laptop when they found a password Hunter saved on a business card.

"On January 27 IRS investigators were handed their first pieces of evidence from the laptop from forensics experts, ‘provided on a USB drive’. But by the end of March that year the special agent running the case said he still had not seen the hard drive itself.

Shapley suspected Assistant US Attorney Lesley Wolf was withholding information 

"The delay began to raise suspicions among Shapley and his team that prosecutors including Delaware Assistant United States Attorney Lesley Wolf were withholding information.

"Shapley told House committee staff that his subordinate, a fellow whistleblower and IRS Criminal Investigation special agent running the investigation, ‘was not given a Cellebrite report, which is just what they call the output of the FBI CART team analysis, and was questioning whether or not the investigators were provided everything.’ "

The Great Clarence Thomas Demolishes Biden's Race-Baiting Supreme Court

  The Gateway Pundit   "The only piece of sour news on today’s historic ruling abolishing race-based college admissions is that Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the majority opinion instead of the great Justice Clarence Thomas. His concurrence is the stuff legends are made of.

"This one paragraph, in particular, is making conservatives cheer:"

"But Ketanji Brown Jackson, Joe Biden’s affirmative action Supreme Court pick, does not share these patriotic beliefs. After today’s ruling, she threw a race-baiting, hissy fit that predictably had liberals swooning.

"She accused the Court’s conservatives for having a “let-them-eat-cake obliviousness.” She went on to whine that the Justices detached” themselves from “this country’s actual past and present experiences,” while lecturing the “ostrich-like” members about “lived experiences.” . . .

Winsome Sears Goes There in Responding to Justice Jackson's Dissent in College Admissions Case

Supreme Court Bans Affirmative Action in College Admissions – PJ Media   . . ."Kenny Xu, president of Color Us United and a second-generation Chinese American, responded to the ruling in a statement.

“ 'These Supreme Court rulings are a victory in the fight to restore merit and equal opportunity to the college admissions process. Top schools have been rigging the game in the name of diversity for too long,” he said. The landmark decisions confirm that using racial preferences to choose applicants is not only unfair, but unconstitutional. We need to keep holding schools accountable to help ensure that all of the best and brightest students get the fair shot they deserve, regardless of race.' ”

 Leah Barkoukis (townhall.com)  Only she could say this.

"During a discussion reacting to the Supreme Court’s ruling that affirmative action policies in college admissions violate the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment, Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears called out Associate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for being a diversity hire." . . .

. . .“Well, what you have is the justice who was chosen because she’s black and because she’s a woman,” Sears responded. “You know, that’s what we’re understanding now, what a woman is. And Martha, while we’re playing these stupid games, I’m saying that education and the lack of it in America is risen to a national crisis. China is not playing these stupid games. China is interested in total world domination, and so is Russia and the rest of them. That’s what we have to be concerned about. Our children are not learning. In fact, when they do graduate from high school and decide to go on to college, Martha, more than 60% of them, according to the statistics, need remedial education that very first year. So, you know how the president is talking about getting rid of student loans? Well, then the children are having to stay one extra year in college based on loans that they have taken for work that they should have completed when they were in high school. So, let’s cut that and let’s get to what the remedies are, and I’m pulling for school choice. School choice now. "Our children are in need.”

Sonia Sotomayor's pretty pissed off that 'six unelected members' of SCOTUS have a say in Court decisions – Twitchy   "Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's dissent in yesterday's Supreme Court ruling striking down affirmative action in college admissions was really something, wasn't it? It read like it was written by someone who genuinely doesn't understand the what the Supreme Court actually does and how it's actually supposed to work.". . .

God wants His rainbow back

 

'Pride' Month Is Way Too Long (thefederalist.com)    . . ."Fathers have a single day in June. Even the end of slavery, our country’s biggest no-no, is relegated to one day of the month. Why, oh why, does sexual identity need a spotlight for the entire thing?

"And “sexual identity” isn’t even accurate anymore. “Pride” is now a catch-all term for perversions, fetishes, kinks, lack of personal hygiene, gaudy fashion, piercings, and on and on. Gay pride is nearly a hate crime against transgenders and “queers” these days. It’s they/them/their blobby body shapes that dominate “pride” now.

"The overexposure is literal. “Pride” events in major cities this past weekend featured men and women walking and biking publicly in the nude. Photos posted on social media showed that children were present. Happy pride.

"Pride is officially off the reservation. The obnoxious, ever-changing flags are everywhere. It’s loud, sexually graphic, and explicit. It’s like being forced to attend an acid-fueled rave for four weeks, the face-numbing bass pounding at your head. The suffocating stench of hordes of sweaty, shirtless people. The blinding lights and honking horns.

"Who is this fun for? Maybe there’s some enjoyment in a day. A weekend is pushing it. An entire month is outrageous." . . .

This Pride Month, Companies Should Skip the Rainbows (dailysignal.com)

NYC Democrats Ban Delicious Pizza for Climate Change -

 This new rule is a prime example of the government slowly chipping away at our individual freedoms under some kind of doomsday guise.  The moral of the story is, if you ever feel stupid, just know that New York City tried to ban the most delicious pizza. 

American Thinker  "There are many things on this Earth are said to be contributing to global warming; cars, planes, plastic, and apparently pizza.  New York City has ordered pizzerias that use coal and wood fired ovens to crack down their carbon emissions by 75%.  Wood and coal fired stoves are apparently one of the largest contributors to air pollution and that this is just a “common sense rule” according to NYC Department of Environmental Protection spokesman, Ted Timbers. 

"This regulation will require pizzeria owners to buy expensive emission control devices, with one Brooklyn owner already paying $20,000 for an air filter.  About 100 restaurants will be affected by this new rule.  These restaurants have to hire engineers or architects so that they can determine whether or not they can actually install these controlled emission devices.  If the restaurant cannot bring 75% of their carbon emissions down, they either need to bring it down by 25% through practice or provide a reason as to why they cannot install emission controls." . . .

Audacity: Obama attacks Tim Scott

"Obama’s life story is 180 degrees opposite to Scott’s, but Obama feels he has the right to talk about the Black experience in America?  Obama has been handed everything his entire life and never even associated with Blacks until he needed their votes."

 Susan Daniels; American Thinker  "Hypocrisy runs in the mixed-race veins of Barack Obama.  He accused SC senator Tim Scott, who is Black, of lacking legitimacy and credibility because he is a Republican.  As I point out in my book, The Rubbish Hauler’s Wife versus Barack Obama, the former president was, is, and continues to be a fraud.

"Tim Scott, gentleman that he is, responded: "Whenever the Democrats feel threatened, they pull out -- drag out -- the former President (Obama), have him make some negative comments about someone running, hoping that their numbers go down.”

"Obama said recently in an interview with David Axelrod that people, like Scott, fail to qualify their optimism of opportunities in America for ethnic minorities with “an honest accounting of our past and our present.”

"Why Obama feels he can attack Scott is beyond me.  Scott is actually a Black man; Obama is not.  He was not the first Black president because we have never had a Black president.  Has everyone forgotten that his mother was White?  That makes Obama the first biracial president.

"Scott was born in South Carolina.  His parents divorced when he was seven, leaving him and his brother to grow up in working-class poverty, along with their mother. They moved into his maternal grandparent’s house.  He was raised under the good influences of his grandfather and also a man who owned a nearby Chick-fil-A restaurant.   

"Scott’s life story is that of the American dream: work hard and anyone can succeed -- regardless of color." . . .

A perfect replacement for the ever-changing 'pride flag' - American Thinker "The one most often seen now is being called the Progress Pride flag, pictured here.  "To go along with the regularly updated flags is the updated LGBT term, which is currently LGBTQIAP2S+" . . .

 . . ."But there is already an entity that's ultra-inclusive: America, and the American flag that represents it!  It's always included every single person living in the U.S. legally, whether rich or poor, traditionally married or not, a great father or a horrible father, a churchgoer or not, served time in jail, a college degree or a fourth-grade education, governor of a state, cheated on taxes, from any other country or religion, a plumber or a farmer, intelligent or mentally disabled.  They're all included!  Our flag has never needed, and will never need, any update to be more "inclusive."

Donald Trump, Daniel Penny and Hunter Biden are all proof our justice system is broken

"Good luck selecting a jury that hasn’t been tainted by biased media coverage." 

But such is the state of our justice system which seems to have stopped even
 trying to keep up the pretense of political impartiality. . . .Manhattan District Attorney
Alvin Bragg 

Three very different indictments – but one damning conclusion: America’s blatantly politicized justice system is broken.

Daniel Penny. Hunter Biden. Donald Trump.

'Isn’t it amazing,' Trump is heard declaring on a bombshell audio recording leaked to CNN on Monday of a now infamous 2021 meeting at the center of a case against the former president over the mishandling of classified information.

Three very different indictments – but one damning conclusion: America’s blatantly politicized justice system is broken.". . .

. . ."Indeed, Neely, who had racked up 42 criminal charges, reportedly yelled and threatened fellow passengers saying he ‘didn’t care about going to jail’.

"But, because Neely was black and Penny is white, the left was quick to forget these important facts and instead brand the incident a racist lynching.

"Victories for the woke brigade, no doubt. But all the while, Bragg does little to deal with the very real and rampant crime plaguing his city’s streets." . . .
