American Lookout "Kamala Harris has been strangely silent about the multiple sexual harassment claims against New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
"She certainly didn’t hold her tongue during the Kavanaugh hearings. In fact, she made sure she was front and center.
"It’s almost like she is avoiding commenting on Cuomo because he is a Democrat.
"FOX News reports:
Kamala Harris silent on mounting Cuomo allegations after Kavanaugh crusade, #MeToo support.....
..."These were false charges; it is perfectly in order for a Republican to oppose Trump’s renomination, but siding with the Trump-hate movement and endorsing these unfounded, Pelosian smear jobs attacking Trump as a criminal who advocated a violent assault on the Capitol is an intolerable outrage."
"In one mighty swinging oratorical stroke of 90 minutes, Trump asserted authority over his party, arraigned the new administration for the complete failure to accomplish anything useful in the first 40 of its vaunted 100 days, and then rolled through the Biden executive orders like a bulldozer. The fiasco at the border enjoyed a full exposure, as it is replete with hypocrisy about the infamous cages, effectively sidelining the Immigration and Customs Enforcement service without abolishing it, and turning the United States into what Trump called a “sanctuary country” for whoever in the world wants to come to it.
"The Green Terror and the companion assault upon the American energy industry, the cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline, the absurdity of wind energy—all were poured forth with great strength and fluency, extraordinarily good syntax, and to withering effect.
"Trump set the record straight on vaccines and the pandemic. His forcefully advanced claim to have saved a huge number of lives by pressing so effectively for early vaccine development and approval is evidently true and already must prevail in the minds of Americans above the frequently disorderly spectacle of the daily televised briefings he hijacked from the vice president and often permitted to turn into bear-baiting sessions for the delectation of his most insolent media enemies. It was refreshing to hear the former president lay the unconscionably prolonged shutdown of most of America’s public and secondary schools directly at the door of the greedy and irresponsible teachers’ unions, who must accept the blame for the steady deterioration of education standards in U.S. state school systems for the past 30 years or more.

*YouTube Removes Videos of Trump's CPAC Speech, Suspends RSBN . . . " When Right Side Broadcasting Network (RSBN) uploaded a video of Trump’s remarks on YouTube, the platform removed that video and suspended RSBN’s YouTube account. It remains unclear whether the platform has removed other videos of Trump’s speech."...

‘They really despise America’: Gingrich pans Democrat’s push to lower voting age to 16, cancel Dr. Seuss "Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich railed against Democrats pushing to cancel Dr. Seuss, lower the federal voting age to 16, and quickly enact legislation that will radically change the political direction of the country." . . .
L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti on Dr. Seuss: ‘There Is No Place for Racist Imagery’ Whatever the cool kids on campus like.
The Left’s New Moral Framework Includes Zero Forgiveness, Even For Dr. Seuss "Instead of a populace with a developed understanding of sin, and a prudent sense of what to punish and what to tolerate, we now have personal and social moral instability."
"There is certainly malice in the cancel culture they promulgate, but there is also desperate spiritual poverty. This is why the old Christian response to sin goes beyond morality, declaring that we all don’t just need hearts three sizes larger, we need new ones."
Mississippi Republican State Sen. Angela Hill, who sponsored the bill, said, "If we do not move to protect female sports from biological males who have an unfair physiological advantage, we will eventually no longer have female sports."
Blaze Media "The Mississippi House passed a bill Wednesday to ban transgender athletes from competing in girls' and women's sports across the state.
"The House passed the bill — dubbed the Mississippi Fairness Act — 81-28 on Wednesday, according to the outlet. Six representatives did not vote, and seven representatives voted "present."
"The Republican-controlled state Senate passed the bill 34-9 in February.
"The ban will apply to state schools and universities. According to ABC News, the bill would require "any public school and university that is a member of the Mississippi High School Activities Association and NCAA, among other associations, to designate their athletic teams as male, female or co-ed and restrict athletes assigned male at birth from joining female teams."
"Idaho became the first state to pass a similar law banning trans women from competing in women's sports in 2020. A federal district court, however, suspended the new law and it has yet to be enacted." . . .
Supporting transgenders, Biden said, "Every person should be treated with respect and dignity and should be able to live without fear, no matter who they are or whom they love". Including, may I suppose the fear of being bankrupted because of supporting real women against men dominating in female sports?
Yahoo ticked off because Newt told Tucker he sided with Mississippi . . . "Host Tucker Carlson had earlier accused Biden of pushing “deeply divisive” policies on LGBTQ equality and immigrant rights ― and Gingrich ran with it.
"He declared the Biden administration was in a “sprint to radicalism” to create an America of “racial deep inequality” that is “anti-white” and “anti-Asian.”
"He then uttered this head-scratcher:
“It’s an America in which transgender dominates Christianity and Judaism.”
This Durango Herald reader would disagree: Letting transgender women play women’s sports is a good thing . . . "Policing any woman’s body opens up the gates to gender discrimination. In short, excluding transwomen hurts all women. I encourage you to ask your daughters and your granddaughters about this issue. I feel you’ll find they don’t mind sharing space. Oppression is taught, not inherent. I am excited for the opportunities opening up for all women with Executive Order 13988." Jessie Ribera
100percentfedup "The American people hate Joe Biden. He receives almost no viewership on his videos or events, is the most disliked president in YouTube history, and has the lowest transparency of any president in recent history. He also has trouble remembering what he is doing. Joe Biden is such a senile authoritarian puppet, that the media eerily cut off the video feed on him when he accidently attempts to speak for himself. The man appears to no longer have a mind of his own.
"President Donald Trump on the other hand is beloved by the majority of this country. That is why when Trump gave a speech at CPAC on Sunday, it garnered over 30 million views.
"Big Tech and the establishment who are in the tank for Biden and globalism know this is a huge problem for them. They expected that they crushed Trump and his supporters when they erroneously blamed them the unrest at the capitol on January 6th and allegedly stole the election from him. However, his political movement has only seemed to swell in popularity. So, now they have to take even more Huxleyan measures to try to stamp out his message." . . .
..." A California Grocers Association study recently found the state’s hazard pay ordinances could raise grocery costs for the average family of four by $400 a year while hundreds of workers, most of them UFCW members, will lose their jobs. It’s a pyrrhic victory that may be repeated regardless of the impact on workers because it generates good headlines for the unions."
"At their peak, unions represented more than a third of American workers. Now, after several decades of continuing decline, less than 10% of workers in the private sector are part of organized labor. And with so much of American manufacturing having moved offshore to escape the less-than-friendly business climate the politicians created, that’s not really news.
"What some people don’t know is how union leadership has continued to cozy up to progressive politicians pushing policies that are antithetical to the interests of the rank and file.
"On his first day in office, President Joe Biden – who campaigned as a moderate — signed an executive order killing the Keystone XL pipeline and, with it, more than 10,000 good-paying union jobs. Among Democrats, that’s par for the course. The vocal progressives dominating the Democratic Party these days are in command of the agenda.
"In another case, the United Food and Commercial Workers’ Union has been pushing for at least ten months for “hazard pay” that doesn’t mesh with the interests of its members. UFCW International President Marc Perrone is demanding some of the nation’s largest grocery chains commit to the pay bump because of COIVD.
"Initially, he wanted $2 an hour. Now he wants $4, even $5 an hour in several West Coast cities. For this, he’s finding support from city and county politicians whose campaigns are union-funded.
"Shortages caused by the lockdowns have made it challenging for grocers and their frontline employees. The UFCW’s on them, after they’ve already invested billions to improve safety measures ignores the facts and smacks of ingratitude. Some grocery chains, like Kroger, are already offering $100 bonuses to employees who get a COVID vaccine.
"But what of what the union wants? A letter to the editor recently appearing in the Los Angeles Times said it well: “I fully agree that the grocery store workers are heroes. However, how does requiring them to be paid more solve the problem here? Are we saying to workers that it’s OK if you get sick, so long as you are paid more?' ” . . .
‘That Is A Lie!’: Leo Terrell Blasts Teachers Union President For Saying Reopening Schools Promotes ‘Structural Racism’ "Civil rights attorney Leo Terrell said Thursday that “it’s a lie” for a teachers union president to suggest that reopening schools will promote “structural racism.” “I know what [the] term [structural racism] means. She doesn’t,” Terrell continued, referring to Cecily Myart-Cruz, the president of United Teachers Los Angeles who said that reopening schools propagates “structural racism.' ” . . .
Mother Says She’s Being Targeted By California’s Largest Teachers Union After She Pushed For School Reopening "A mother who received an email from California’s largest teachers union asking her to identify her race believes she’s being targeted after she spoke favorably about school reopenings with local media." . . .
“You are quoted twice in the last eight months,” the email said, in part. “I know that Maryam is a common Iranian name, but I will not make any assumptions without a legitimate method,” the email continued. “Could you tell me how you racially self-identify or point me to a citation on your identity?”
Daily Mail "A 2017 tweet from Vice President Kamala Harris has resurfaced mentioning Dr. Seuss by name and quoting him, four years before her own administration would strip his name from Read Across America Day.
"Harris was a senator when she sent out the tweet, dated March 2, 2017, in which she wished the famed children’s book author a happy birthday.
"“Happy birthday, #DrSeuss! ‘The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go,’” the California senator wrote at the time.
"The birthday of Dr. Seuss — whose real name was Theodor Seuss Geisel and who died at 87 in 1991 — was chosen by the National Educational Association in 1998 as the date for a new holiday focused on promoting children’s literacy." . . .
Carlson: ‘Dr. Seuss Was Not a Racist — Dr. Seuss Was a Preachy Liberal'
Jimmy Kimmel: Canceling Dr. Seuss Is ‘How Trump Gets Reelected’
HBO “Real Time” host Bill Maher has similarly warned liberals cancel culture is “real” and “coming to a neighborhood near you.” “Liberals need a Stand Your Ground law … for cancel culture.” Maher said, “so that when the woke mob comes after you for some ridiculous offense, you’ll stand your ground, stop apologizing. Because I can’t keep up with who’s on the s—list.”
Psaki's Revelation as to Who Actually Wrote Biden Proclamation Speaks Volumes
Obama’s 2016 proclamation described Seuss as “one of America’s revered wordsmiths” who “used his incredible talent to instill in his most impressionable readers universal values we all hold dear.” Trump, in his 2018 proclamation, urged Americans to “always remember the still-vibrant words of Dr. Seuss: ‘You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.'” Then-first lady Melania Trump celebrated Read Across America Day in 2017 by reading Dr. Seuss books to hospitalized children. Biden broke with that tradition in his. So, Jen Psaki was asked why Biden didn’t mention Dr. Seuss in the proclamation for the event and her response was troubling on a couple of levels.
Washington Times "The conservative comic strip “Mallard Fillmore” has been plucked.
"Bruce Tinsley, creator of the 27-year-old cartoon, said he was told this week by his syndication company that Gannett newspapers across the country simultaneously dropped the comic over two strips critical of President Biden and transgender participation in women’s sports.
"“It was a big shock,” Mr. Tinsley told The Washington Times. “From what I’m hearing, it was unprecedented. My syndicate had never seen anything like it.”
"He said officials at King Features, which syndicates the cartoon, said that “a decision was made at the [Gannett] corporate level, and they weren’t sure exactly why, except that they were sure it was about those two cartoons.”
"The two comics ran Feb. 19-20. The first depicts Mr. Biden musing: “For too long, segregation sullied women’s sports … They were restricted to women! Thank goodness those dark days are over.”
"In the second cartoon, Mr. Biden says, “I hear what you, the American people, want me to do … kill fossil-fuel jobs … devalue Americans’ labor … and help more transgender athletes beat the *@!# out of biological females.”
"Certainly, “Mallard Fillmore” has been known to ruffle feathers, but Mr. Tinsley said he didn’t think the strips referring to Mr. Biden’s Jan. 20 executive order on gender identity and sexual orientation were over the top." . . .
. . . "Mr. Tinsley said he has gone back to creating four of the seven daily comics per week, and he drew the two Biden cartoons at the center of the controversy.
"Don’t be surprised if “Mallard Fillmore” takes on the cancel culture in future comics.
"“There are so many cartoons about this issue, about all the people getting canned — the Gina Carano thing, and Dr. Seuss,” Mr. Tinsley said. “I know how it feels now.” . . .

"Remember the nationwide outpouring for Chick-fil-A a few years ago (before it, too, went woke)? Businesses that openly favor Trump's America need to take advantage of the simmering irritation going on outside the pages of the woke media. Once the unwoke public understand who's really in their corner and who holds them in contempt, the floodgates will open. Being ignored is one thing; being sneered at is quite another. The left doesn't realize that it's been lucky so far that the general public hasn't caught on to what's happening.
"The idea here is, rather than hunker down from wokeness, go on the attack with unwoke themes. Advertise with such memes as "it's not racist to be white." "Some of my best friends are white." "We welcome everybody." While mouthing these lines, the actors drink the advertised soft drink or luxuriate in the beds of the motel chain or swim in its pool with multiracial guests." . . .
"These holy terrors are tormenting newsrooms across New York City — at New York magazine, The New Yorker and The New York Times. They are true believers, not original thinkers — race-obsessed, gender-obsessed, anti-white, anti-American, and much, much stupider than reporters used to be. Just tell me what I’m supposed to think and I’ll think it."
Ann Coulter "I was a mere 70 pages into Donald McNeil’s brief about his firing from The New York Times when I emailed a dozen of my friends to demand they read it immediately. But they don’t have my perseverance, so here are the highlights.
"Two years after McNeil chaperoned a group of high schoolers on a trip to Peru to learn about rural health care, The Daily Beast published an article detailing the students’ list of denunciations against him, including the career-ending claim that he’d used the “N-word.”
"Days later, it came out that he had used the word in response to a student’s question about a high school girl who’d been suspended from school for using the infamous word. He repeated it in order to ask how she’d said it.
"This paragraph, particularly the parenthetical, is all you need to know about McNeil’s misadventure in Peru:“At some point, a student took issue with my having said the U.S. wasn’t a colonial power, saying something like: ‘Don’t you realize what the CIA has done? Don’t you realize that the United Fruit Company interfered in central America to protect its banana monopoly?’ … (This student herself was white, from Greenwich, CT and went to Andover but mentioned multiple times over the week that she had a Latino boyfriend and he had opened her eyes to a different view of the world …)”
"None of the students on this resume-padding trip were black. There was one Asian, and the rest were white, dripping with white privilege. (Who else goes on a Princeton-bait trip to Peru in high school to learn about “rural health care”?) Twenty of the 22 students were girls. All appear to be complete idiots.
"McNeil went on the exact same trip and gave the same lectures to a different group of high school students the summer before and got rave reviews. But the 2019 batch were in the advanced Spotting Racism class.
"During McNeil’s struggle sessions with his interrogators at the Times, he was accused of an array of crimes against political correctness. Here’s a sampling:" . . .
Ray Bradbury’s introduction to the 1967 edition of Fahrenheit 451 recalls his childhood love of books and libraries: “I ate, drank, and slept books. . . . It followed then that when Hitler burned a book I felt it as keenly, please forgive me, as his killing a human, for in the long sum of history they are one and the same flesh. Mind or body, put to the oven, it is a sinful practice, and I carried that with me.”
"If America continues down the road of canceling all voices that make someone feel uncomfortable, children will be denied the chance to learn from the good and bad of history. It destroys any opportunity for historical reflection. It eliminates any measure of progress because no record of the past will exist. At this rate, nobody will hear a Who from Whoville ever again."
Who Had 'Dr. Seuss Is Racist' On Their Cancel Bingo Cards? – PJ Media . . . "Most forms of entertainment are reflective of the time they were created and there’s a lot of older stuff out there that the woke scolds find problematic because none of them understand context. Disney Plus has been putting warnings on classic movies and cartoons like Dumbo because somebody might have a feeling hurt while watching it. Heck, pretty much everything that was written or filmed before 1965 is probably suspect now. I’m reading a classic sci-fi anthology that’s mostly stuff from the first half of the 20th century and it’s a minefield of words that would be deemed culturally inappropriate now. Does that mean these old stories by luminaries in the genre have no value anymore?" . . .
FACEPALM: Joe Biden Cancels Dr. Seuss – PJ Media "Last week, when Amazon removed Ryan T. Anderson’s When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment from its digital shelves, many conservatives rightly decried the act as a kind of digital book burning. Yet on Tuesday, six Dr. Seuss books received the same treatment for Theodor Seuss Geisel’s March 2 birthday — a day now celebrated as “Read Across America Day.” Dr. Seuss Enterprises, the business that preserves and protects the author’s legacy, announced it would pull six books from publication due to allegedly racist and insensitive imagery." . . .
