Brandon Morse at RedState (Not a joke.) "Despite the media’s celebration of Thomas’s victories, his record-breaking isn’t impressing many others. It’s especially not going well with members of his own team who have spoken out in the past about the unfair nature of Thomas’s victories.
"They confessed that they feel pressured to applaud Thomas.
“ 'When the whole team is together, we have to be like, ‘Oh my gosh, go Lia, that’s great, you’re amazing.’ It’s very fake,” said one swimmer.
"Bidenzuela, where the shelves are as empty as Joe Biden's head. (After his press conference, I no longer think his dementia is an act.)"
One sample of the highlights is Item ITEM 4:
"The Grand Fork Herald reported, "The University of North Dakota stops work on proposed gender inclusion policy."
The story said, "In a message released on the morning of Friday, Jan. 21, UND President Andrew Armacost announced the decision to cease work on the policy. Armacost wrote that uncertainties exist about the consequences of not following the draft policy’s guidance on using preferred pronouns on campus for students, faculty and staff. Under that proposed policy, intentionally misgendering a person could be seen as an act of discrimination."
"The story also said, "When the policy first was proposed, Christopher Dodson, the Catholic Conference’s executive director, wrote that some universities are enacting policies that are hostile to the Catholic religion, and thereby impose 'flawed ideologies on students but also restrict their rights to free speech and religion.' Dodson specifically referenced UND in the letter.
" 'In a Friday morning message, Dodson commended the move to stop work on the policy. Dodson wondered if the policy could have led to students of different birth genders being housed together."
"It's not inclusion when you keep out Catholics or any other group. It is exclusion. And I beg the LGBTQ+ community to understand that the Left is not trying to help you. They are trying to punish religion in general and Catholics in particular."
Another base of support for the communists, if you read the People’s World, lies in various unions, including those running the public schools, as the paper highlights National Education Association President Becky Pringle as a leading “progressive.”
"There’s nothing socialists and communists hate more than a disorganized dictatorship, unable to consolidate power. As a result, the plan for Biden’s $3 trillion “human infrastructure” plan, described by socialist scholar Paul LeBlanc as “Socialist Convergence” for America through the Green New Deal, remains in limbo. The “progressives” are angry.
"This rage represents an opportunity to save America from the abyss.
"Looking at foreign affairs, the Biden effect is working to the advantage of our enemies.
"America-friendly countries in Europe and Asia, such as Ukraine and Taiwan, are in grave danger. China Joe’s foreign policy, an extension of that practiced by Barack Hussein Obama, is designed to make it risky to seek the kind of freedom and independence we once had in America. Israel is even in danger of a nuclear attack by the Russian-armed religious fanatics in Iran, who are now targeting former Trump officials for death in retaliation for the killing of Iranian terrorist commander Soleimani.". . .

He has talked to the public and called them liars and "dog-faced pony soldiers." "When not insulting voters, double-crossing Clarence Thomas, or sniffing hair during his sordid career, he has regaled the public with tales of slaying Corn Pop with only the handcuffs he took from South African constables while leading a brigade of the French Foreign Legion into Saratoga during the Spanish-American War, stopping along the way for Slurpees dispensed by a clean and articulate Indian immigrant. "Perhaps what the geniuses who lead the president around should consider in order to at least attempt to connect with the massive number of fellow citizens he has alienated, insulted, and harmed would be for him to listen to the public.

Joe Biden Completes His Historic Failure | RealClearPolitics . . ."Republicans have argued that the Biden administration needs to act assertively to try and repair its image following the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan.
“ 'I think there has been a drop in international approval for how he’s doing,” Schake told Fox News Digital. “The humiliating spectacle of the U.S. abandoning Afghanistan, especially when the Biden administration wasn’t open to concerns from allies either about the policy or about its execution – really rattled allies.'” . . .
"President Joe Biden, whose growing unpopularity is well-deserved, continued to carry on last week what has become a Democratic tradition: He asked the private sector to become partners in censorship with the federal government.
“ 'I make a special appeal to social media companies and media outlets, please deal with disinformation and misinformation that’s on your shows,” he said during a virtual meeting from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. “It has to stop.”
"Of course, Big Tech and the legacy media have been happy to oblige.
“When the leader of the majority party in Washington, D.C., issues a demand, the largest corporations listen,” journalist Glenn Greenwald tweeted in response to Biden’s “will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?” proposition.
“ 'Again: so much of the censorship from Google and other tech monopolies is done not on their own accord but under pressure and threats from Democratic Party leaders.”
"Nearly a year ago, Greenwald wrote in his Substack newsletter that “in their zeal for control over online speech, House Democrats are getting closer and closer to the constitutional line, if they have not already crossed it.” . . .
The Biden myth – this idea that Joe is some average guy who found himself in politics, but never lost his “middle-class Joe” roots is a joke. Joe was never middle class. His family was wealthy until his father squandered the money. It seems no one with the name Biden was particularly bright.
Joe’s story isn’t compelling or even interesting, so he lies about it. It’s a sign of wild insecurity that he lies about his life the way he does – from academic achievements, which he claims but did not have, to the tragic death of his first wife and daughter, which he blamed for years on a drunk driver but simply is not true. Again, there is something deeply wrong with a man who would not only exploit the death of family members, but would also lie in the process.". . .
. . ." Jill’s first husband is still alive, and in a story that would be front page news were her name Melania Trump, tells how she started having an affair with Joe while they were still married. Since she’s a Biden, the media has little interest.". . .
. . ."When you have a hooker and stripper-banging, crack-smoking son in the family and there’s still a question over which member is the dumbest, you’ve stumbled onto a very “special” group of people. The Biden name is associated with a lot of arrests and abuses, so there isn’t really a winner in the bunch. Yet somehow, miraculously, they’ve managed to become fabulously wealthy with no discernable skills among them, except a willingness to exploit Joe’s position of public trust."
On Biden's Build Back Bitter Bluster . . ."Beyond this, it should be added that Reagan, and most other presidents, were. usually disciplined enough never to let the media visibly get under his skin. Clinton had a few lapses in this department, but Biden makes Clinton look like a model of chastity by comparison.
"More evidence that he isn’t up to the rigors of the office."...See for yourself: President Reagan handled his age issue perfectly... Great humor and Mondale's reaction was classy
The president's words will embolden Vladimir Putin to be even more aggressive and accelerate his asymmetric attacks on other neighboring nations.
"Russian President Vladimir Putin won a major victory this past week, and it didn’t require him to move a single soldier or weapon into Ukraine. During a news conference at the White House Wednesday, President Joe Biden made several considerable concessions. These rhetorical retreats would not only damage and further destabilize the government in Kyiv. They also reverberated in capitals across eastern and central Europe, leaving leaders there feeling even more vulnerable to Moscow’s meddling.
What should Biden have said? He needed to channel Winston Churchill: Describe in stark terms the gravity of our present predicament.
"In diplomacy, the messaging really matters. Having served in numerous embassies overseas, I’ve seen how the right message can help secure peace. But the wrong message can lead to conflict. What Biden said about a potential Russian invasion and NATO’s response falls squarely into the latter category. His words will embolden Putin to be even more aggressive and accelerate his asymmetric attacks on other neighboring nations.
"The president recklessly remarked that the price for Russia invading Ukraine “depends on what it does. It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and then we end up having a fight about what to do and not do” — the “we” apparently referring to NATO.". . .
Everywhere one looks, Biden has made the world a more dangerous place: China threatens Taiwan, saying Afghanistan withdrawal proves US ‘won’t help’ if war breaks out Always relevant: Do we need show business celebrities picking our national leaders?
The Gateway Pundit "Republican Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana is a gem who has a way with words and a great sense of humor.
"During a recent appearance on FOX News, he called out Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and various other Democrats for constantly accusing other Americans of racism.
"He said that the American people are tired of it, and is he ever right." . . .
Apart from Trump, what other president, Democrat or Republican, acted upon closing the southern border? None. What other president promised and delivered moving the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem? None. And what other president stood up to the one-sided trade practices of China? None.
American Thinker . . ."Such is the case with the election and rejection of President Donald Trump and the subsequent appearance of President Joe Biden.
"These men didn't just happen. President Trump was elected on the heels of eight disappointing years of President Barack Obama — a presidency that saw America embarrassed and diminished on the world stage, a sinking economy, and many Americans' dismal outlook of the future.
"Trump was seen as the antidote to the self-serving establishment. Always a threat as a true outsider, he became the establishments' kryptonite when he started to fight back, something Republicans had little stomach for. " . . .
Andrea Widberg . . ."I'm pretty sure that the people advancing the endless shots do not intend for everyone who had them to die, which is what some people fear. Instead, I believe that the pressure for vaccines lies in two things: profit and power. A lot of people are getting very rich thanks to vaccines and, now, an unending number of boosters. And across Europe and America, way too many small-minded, stupid political leaders are accruing terrifying amounts of power. At the end of the day, if I had to choose between a disease with a <1% mortality rate and a power-mad political class, I'll take the first every time."

UPDATE: Babylon Bee: Trans M&M
M&Ms Introduces New Trans Character Who Identifies As A Skittle | The Babylon Bee
"As part of a bold new marketing strategy to promote inclusivity and appeal to less than 1% of the population, Mars, Incorporated has introduced a new M&M character who identifies as a Skittle.
" 'I'm gonna be honest here. We basically are doing this because it's hip and makes us look cool," said Mars, Incorporated CEO Franklin Crunchy. "And that adds to the bottom line. I think we can make a decent fortune by comparing the hardship of real trans people to a wacky cartoon character."
" 'Trans people deserve to be represented by M&Ms," he continued. "Our Trans-Skittle character will help us break chocolate-covered barriers in your mouth and not in your hands."
"The new character, named Quinn, is an M&M that wears an "S" because they haven't had letter reassignment surgery yet. On the inside, Quinn has the same chocolate taste because it isn't able to change anything but its outward appearance.
" 'We just want to let the trans community know that M&M supports you and wants your money!" said the Mars CEO.
"The LGBTQ+ community took to Twitter to ask why there isn't a Latinx M&M. "Do better," tweeted user @ihatemyself.". . .
"Mars, Incorporated, the producer of the popular M&Ms, announced this week that its famed characters will get a "modern makeover" and that will include more "nuanced personalities," as part of a "global commitment to creating a world where everyone feels they belong and society is inclusive."
"Not Changing the Colors
"More than 400 million of the colorful, candy-coated chocolates are produced daily and eaten around the world. The original colors included red, yellow, green, brown, orange and violet. In 1949, tan replaced violet – only to be replaced by blue in 1995.
"However, those familiar colors won't be changing. Rather, it is the personas of the M&Ms that are getting a makeover.
"As TheHill.com reported, the current green M&M character, which has been seen in ads posing seductively and wearing white go-go boots, will now sport a pair of sneakers instead. In addition, the description for the green candy on the M&M's website noted that she enjoys "being a hypewoman for my friends."
"Via the M&M's promotional site, the green M&M character added, "I think we all win when we see more women in leading roles, so I'm happy to take on the part of supportive friend when they succeed."
"Another character, the brown M&M, described her motto as, "Not bossy. Just the boss."
"Social Media Reacts To The Change". . .
"The truth is going to keep coming out … and all roads are going to lead to big health care," he added. "Follow the money and you're going to see what's driving all of this."

Fox News "Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, condemned the left's COVID response Thursday on "Fox News Primetime."
"Democrats are "making it harder to get a burger in Washington … than it is to get carjacked," Roy told guest host Pete Hegseth.
"A Centers for Disease Control & Prevention study suggested natural immunity against COVID-19 provided better protection against the delta variant than vaccination alone, Roy said.
"The study noted vaccination is still the safest preventative strategy against the virus.
" 'It's not about science, right?" he asked. "This is all about power.". . .
