Courage To Serve Act Designed To Lure Immigrants Into U.S. Military

 

Two House members, one Democrat and one Republican, recently introduced the Courage to Serve Act, which, if passed into law, would provide an expedited path to citizenship for migrants who sign up to serve in the U.S. military.

American citizens used to have the courage to serve, too; but, judging by recruitment shortfalls, many no longer have the stomach—or the opportunity-- to do so since the Obiden administration purged the military of conservatives, Christians, and patriots.

In the administration’s defense, it had to purge the military of conservatives, Christians, and patriots so that it could use it to go after conservatives, Christians, and patriots here at home in the ever more dystopian future.

Welcome to the new mercenary American military. Give free stuff to illegal immigrants—including a path to citizenship—and hope they jump at the chance to defend the nation they’ve been told is a heinous hellhole of discrimination and oppression. (But, oddly enough, incredibly generous to “undocumented immigrants!”)

Proposed new military recruitment campaign slogan: “Uncle Sam is misogynistic, racist, homophobic, bigoted, and generally hateful…and he wants you…to defend this nation-- to the death if need be!” Who wouldn’t take the opportunity to risk it all when it’s put like that?

Ooh rah!

Scientists To Begin Spewing Chalk And Chemicals Into The Atmosphere To Block Sunlight

 

OMG. And that’s an understatement.

Reports indicate that scientists will soon begin implementing a plan, promoted by Bill Gates and George Soros, to spew chalk dust and certain chemicals into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight away from the Earth’s surface. The creation of manmade white clouds would be an attempt to lower Earth’s temperature and reverse global warming.

This extraordinary experimental action is set to occur over the next few months, with dust and chemicals being hurled into the atmosphere from various countries, including Australia, Israel, and the United States.

Is blocking sunlight really a good idea? And we know this how? Nothing on this scale has ever been done before. As with the COVID mRNA vaccines, we really don’t know how this will turn out. Fingers crossed. And this roll of the dice is on a cosmic scale! To the extent that it has an effect, it will be the first instance in history of verifiable manmade climate change on a global scale, for better or worse. Kind of ironic if you ask me.

But how can this be? Who authorized this assault on the atmosphere? Surely Bill Gates and George Soros can’t simply, unilaterally impose actions intended to affect weather and climate around the globe. Did I miss something? Did the world’s citizens vote on this? Was the global community consulted? Did each and every nation have a say? Farmers and botanists, the elderly and infirm?

Is there a back-up plan should this attempted nullification of the sun backfire and plant life be adversely affected? Or if we are thrown into a new Ice Age, or even a Little Ice Age? What if the plan bears fruit…and the planet no longer does as it used to?

And why is this not the biggest news story around the globe? The elites are literally gambling with the health of the planet-- and the lives and livelihood of everyone on it—without input or approval from anyone else.

Oh well, the sun will come out tomorrow. Or will it?

Biden Blasts House Members For Taking Vacation

 

President Biden recently blasted members of the House of Representatives for taking a two-week recess, a break he referred to as a "vacation."

The Hypocrite-in-Chief stated, sort of: “Instead of going on a two-week vacation. Two weeks, walking away. Two weeks? What are they thinking? My God, this is bizarre, and it’s just reinforcing, and it's just reinforcing all the concern and, and almost I won't say panic, but real concern about the United States being a reliable ally. This is outrageous."

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black ebony! Biden is on a record pace for presidential vacations, having spent about 40% of his presidency on holiday thus far, significantly more than former President Trump…and virtually all of his other predecessors.

But enough is never enough for donkeys horses’ asses-- old or new. Rep. Eric Smallswell Swalwell (D-CA) recently took to the platform formerly known as Twitter to relate the death of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s chief political opponent to potential future actions of Donald Trump, should he be returned to the presidency. @RepSwalwell stated:

Let Navalny’s death be a warning to America. If returned to power, Donald Trump will jail his opponents. This isn’t a forecast, he has already told us this. There will be no evidence or due process. And certainly no opposition from Republicans in Congress.

“Jail his opponents?” He might well have to get out of jail first, as his opponents are desperately trying to put him there. That isn’t a forecast, it’s a current reality. Democrats have utterly eschewed due process in their rabid attempts to imprison and destroy Trump. And there has certainly been little or no opposition from Democrats in Congress.

Democrats are to projection as Heinz is to ketchup.

California Democrat Sponsors Bill To Make Insurers Report Firearm Ownership

 

Democratic California Assemblymember Mike Gipson recently authored bill AB-3067, which would require insurance companies to inquire about-- and report on-- the number of firearms owned by folks seeking homeowner’s insurance. 

Can you say “slippery slope?” This is a preposterous invasion of privacy and would continue the recent trend of the federal government coercing private companies to do its nefarious bidding.

Insurance is already a heavily regulated industry. It isn’t much of a stretch to imagine government at first “suggesting” and later mandating that insurance companies surcharge for firearm ownership, making the premiums of those protected by the Second Amendment higher than they would otherwise be. And what next? Would insurers have to report wine cellars, humidors, wet bars, and knife collections? Or perhaps the number and value of any and all fur coats in the household?

It is easy to envision the government someday soon mandating surcharges on those who own only gasoline-powered vehicles. Etc., etc.

Combine this with the coming Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) and government will know everything you purchase, own, think, and do, and will be able to modify your behavior—or incarcerate you—as it sees fit.

Brave New World? More like a Depraved New World. One in which, ironically, allegedly “progressive” governments will be the oppressors—and anyone who insufficiently bends the knee will be the oppressed.

And America will have come full circle, from The Declaration of Independence to The Declaration of Dependence. And servitude.

Debt Spending To Surpass Defense Spending This Year

 

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) now estimates that, this year, 2024, the U.S. federal government will spend more on interest on the national debt than on national defense. Or Medicare. You read that correctly. The CBO says that the federal government will spend $850 billion on defense, as opposed to $870 billion on debt interest. Moreover, interest payments on the national debt are the quickest-growing part of the preposterously bloated yet still fast-growing federal budget…and are projected to reach a mind-blowing $5.4 trillion by 2053.

So, effectively, taxpayers are going to have their hard-earned money confiscated to pay $870 billion for nothing. Less than nothing, actually. In a better world, Americans would be able to collectively sue their government for swindling or malfeasance, if not treason. It’s one thing to spend one’s own money like a drunken sailor on shore leave, quite another to spend other people’s money in the same profligate manner. To endlessly spend even more of other people’s money because you’ve already spent too much of their money should be a crime. In a saner world, those responsible would at least be held accountable and be removed from office.

Yet many—if not most—of us are on the take. This lends more power to those in government. Therefore, only a literal handful of politicians in Washington have the courage and integrity to face the debt…and talk honestly about it. Any politician, typically a conservative Republican, who does appear to speak seriously of cutting spending, especially entitlement spending, is immediately portrayed by Democrats and their sycophants in the mainstream media as being “heartless,” or, bizarrely, even “greedy.”

About that characterization, Thomas Sowell, as usual, was spot on in noting, “I have never understood why it is ‘greed’ to want to keep the money you have earned but not greed to want to take somebody else’s money.”

Another Thomas, Jefferson in this case, perfectly summed up our choices nearly 250 years ago: To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude.

Sadly, at this point, servitude seems the likely winner.

 

 

 

 

 

Ivy League Equity: Deans' Lists A Casualty Of Progress

 

So-called “Ivy League” schools, led by Cornell University and the University of Pennsylvania, have begun dispensing with deans’ lists, because…well you likely know why. These erstwhile bastions of “higher education” claim the lists are not only unnecessary, but cause undue stress and anxiety for students.

As might anything requiring effort and competence. Which is why effort and competence are under attack, as is the honoring—or even recognition—of competence and effort. So, out with SAT tests, get rid of deans’ lists, and dispense with honor rolls. Hell, let’s get rid of grading systems entirely!

Measures of ability, aptitude, and competence are ever more passé. The only metric that matters in today’s world is, say it with me now…”diversity, equity, and inclusion.” DEI! Who cares if the surgeon-to-be doesn’t know your tonsils from your toenails, as long as he/she/they check all the right intersectional boxes! And your pilot? Can’t tell an aileron from an elevator, Iceland from France…and panics with a gust of wind? Moot points all! He/she/they hail from a protected class! Feel better now?

While we’re at it, let’s rid ourselves of exalted designations such as “All-Pro” and “All-Star.” They may cause stress and anxiety among athletes! Let’s do away with the Oscars, abolish the Grammys, forgo the Emmys, and nix the Nobel Prize. To the ash heap of history with any acknowledgement of merit! Out with virtue, in with equity!       

Speaking of the assault on excellence and The War on Worthiness, let’s stop awarding Silver Stars, Medals of Honor, and Purple Hearts to the young people in the military defending the nation. Vying for these meaningless trinkets must cause them stress and anxiety. Valor, too, just gets in the way of inclusion.

Equity, pass it on.

The Elites Versus The Rest Of Us

 

The elites view radical, violent protest movements-- and the groups that foster them-- such as Black Lives Matter, with extraordinary tolerance and charity. But when a true populist movement arises, and white, working-class Christians get uppity and threaten to vote for someone like a Donald Trump, they go into full “snit” mode and look down their noses in horror and approbation at the great unwashed.

 “Brexit,” too, was an example of the elites being caught with their pants down. They simply couldn’t believe that many folks would challenge the wisdom they so generously espoused from atop their political thrones. With staggering- and sickening- hubris, these elites characterized Trump’s rise and Britain’s E.U. exit as “illegitimate,” “irrational,” and as unforgivable effrontery- a revolt against “expert’s” authority. (To quote the “Church Lady” from the old Saturday Night Live skit: “Well, isn’t that special!”  It’s well past time these bureaucratic bedsores took one on the chin.)

This “revolt” is anything but irrational. In America, the white working class has suffered through declining marriage rates, stagnant- or worse- wage rates…and even declining life expectancy. They see immigrants and robots taking jobs away from them while their values are denigrated on a daily basis. They see the elites’ attempt to take their firearms away from them at the same time as they strive to import more and more immigrants into their communities, some from terrorist hotbeds. Their eyes widen as the powers-that-be force-feed them transgender bathrooms and mock Christianity while embracing Islam as a “religion of peace.” They bust their ass and pay their taxes… and are rewarded by being called “hicks” and racists and homophobes, even as they see more and more people being given a free ride, courtesy of the government they partially pay for.

                They know they are not the aggressors, but the aggrieved. They are not the predators, but the prey. They have a big target on their backs, and they are finally, logically, reasonably, getting tired of it.

                The elites, for their part, don’t care. They know the end result of their own policies. They carefully pander to every type of minority, as these groups will be the majority in the very near future, and likely an overwhelming majority not that long after that. In a twisted political dance, the “tolerant” elitists are already boldly discriminating against a bare majority…in order to prove to the large minority that they won’t discriminate against them!

                Far too many unelected, bureaucratic pencil-pushers in Washington and Brussels have been granted nearly complete control over those they are supposedly to serve, due to the cravenness of their elected “bosses.” These duplicitous diplomats and sanctimonious “servants” sneer self-righteously at those who they derisively say cling to “their God and their guns,” as they arouse themselves by marinating in their own supposed superiority.

                The West and its signature values of limited representative government, respect for the individual, free will, free markets, discipline, work ethic, and reasoned faith, led the world out of the Dark Ages. Bizarrely and remarkably, the truth of the matter is that elites in the Western media, government, entertainment, and academia are now revolting against the same values that changed the world so much for the better. Progressive?

              In America, the Biden administration is putting the kibosh on gas stoves and now all new liquid natural gas export approvals, ostensibly to fight climate change, but, some believe, more likely just to piss off political opponents. Mindbogglingly, various Western governments are essentially declaring war on farmers, or at least farming, again purportedly to combat global warming. So what will 8 billion people eat? The elites say, “Let them eat bugs!” Indeed, you will eat ze bugs…and be happy! The globalists at the WEF have taken it upon themselves to plan our subjugation. In a sort of reverse Genesis, these would-be deities seek to save the earth from humanity. At the 2024 Forum, the global aristocracy vowed to ramp up censorship of dissenting opinion. If they can successfully implement broad-based censorship of those with whom they disagree, there is no hope for the rest of us to throw off our shackles. Period. That is why the American Founders wrote—and enshrined-- the First Amendment to the Constitution.

 The elites believe they know what’s best for everyone else, and the planet at large.  But, in reality, they are far more concerned with what’s best for them—and their image as virtue signaling champions of a supposedly utopian future. It is up to us to ensure that their assault on logic, morality and sanity does not succeed. No matter the consequences.

Study Says American Classrooms Teaching Outdated Ideas About Sex, Gender

 

A recent Forbes magazine article cited a study claiming that the majority of U.S. classrooms “teach outdated ideas about the differences between sex and gender,” in part because they rely on outdated textbooks that don’t clearly differentiate between the two…and too clearly differentiate between male and female. The study, published in the journal Science, says these books promote gender and sex essentialism, the idea that these categories have “fundamental or ‘essential’ qualities.” Gasp!

We all know that males and females have no “fundamental or ‘essential’ qualities,” right? They are totally interchangeable in every possible way!

It is now heresy to believe in binary sexual characteristics-- and you will be in big trouble if you don’t publicly recognize the vast, make that infinite, variability of genders.

So now educators must teach lies, whether about sex/gender, climate change, American history, or any number of other subjects, or risk being excommunicated…or worse.

Ironically, this is reminiscent of Galileo being put on trial for stating that the Earth and other planets revolve around the sun, not the other way around. His detractors couldn’t countenance a heliocentric solar system.

Today’s “progressives” can’t countenance any disagreement with their agenda…because they believe the Earth—indeed the universe—revolves around them.

The RCMP Is Seeking Men Who Identify As Women

 

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) recently announced that it is looking for high school students who identify as women” to participate in its summer student employment program. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police! To those of us in the second half of life, the RCMP congers up images of tough, burly—if not necessarily brilliant-- men in their red outfits and wide-brimmed hats, ready at a moment’s notice to apprehend evil doers such as Snidely whiplash.

The lads of the RCMP closely resembled the particularly manly lumberjacks of the great Northern and Western forests. The fact that the storied Canadian police force is now actively seeking out men who identify as women seems beyond parody. Yet, the Monty Python troupe seemed to predict this occurrence many years ago, with its sketch called the “Lumberjack Song.”

Enjoy.

Euthanasia Proliferating In The Dying West

 

Euthanasia is becoming all the rage in the “civilized” Western nations of Europe and North America. Canada has its MAID (Medical Assistance In Dying) program and is trying to expand it. Democratic-run states are trying to expand and nationalize euthanasia in America, as well. Some are seeking to make the mentally ill eligible for assisted dying. You know, like Trump supporters, for example. The “MAGA types” that President Biden is always angrily bloviating about. For their own good-- and ours-- they would claim.

Last year the Netherlands made all ages eligible for euthanization. And now new guidelines state that parents can decide to have their child euthanized-- in conjunction with a doctor-- even if the child is unwilling or unable to consent.

Even against the child’s will. Monstrous.

But, really, why be upset? It’s just very late term abortion after all, right?

“Sorry, son, your mom and I discussed this, and you’ve been outvoted, 2 to 1. It’s curtains for you.” (I picture this classic Monty Python sketch.)

I yearn for the days when I was young…and thought “euthanasia” was “youth in Asia” and wondered why it seemed controversial.

On the other hand, I sometimes look at what’s happening in the world today and think: “maybe they are on to something.”

Evil Silencing Good

 

Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good.”—Archbishop Charles J. Chaput

 

That is a remarkably astute observation, perfectly stated. And such a true and important concept that it should be taught in every school at every level.

Long time readers know I do not consider tolerance to be a virtue, per se. This should not be a novel idea, nor particularly difficult to grasp. Tolerance of differing food or musical tastes, for example, is good. Tolerance of murder and incest is not. Archbishop Chaput realizes that the left preaches tolerance for all things it likes, but not so much for those it doesn’t. And, when it acquires power, it uniformly tries to shut down and shut up any entity with which it disagrees. And, especially, anyone that could challenge its power and control.

I have long realized three things that are essential to understanding the world as it stands today. One: tolerance is not necessarily a virtue. Two: there is an ongoing, if largely unrecognized, battle between good and evil. And three: the only way good can prevail over evil-- and ultimate chaos and meaninglessness-- is for the majority of people to be courageous enough to tell the truth. Archbishop Chaput’s statement encompasses all of these beliefs in one succinct assertion.

There is something extraordinarily pernicious about trying to appear virtuous, tolerant, and open-minded to others while at the same time knowing you are willing to crush anyone who threatens your agenda and power. Using others in this manner is simply evil.

It is astounding to me how many Americans still fall for this bullshit. The same folks who decry “false advertising” at the hands of businesses, who doubt America was ever great, and who mock the idea of a “sky daddy”…… seem to be easy marks for progressive/leftist indoctrination, prevarication and propaganda.

There is a bizarre—and dangerous—double standard, a two-tier justice system that has taken hold in modern day America. “MAGA” supporters are arrested at the drop of a hat, whereas members of BLM, Antifa, and various other assorted radicals are treated with kid gloves. No one is allowed to so much as raise their voice against the indoctrination—or mutilation—of their kids in a parent-teacher meeting, yet threatening conservatives is damn near de rigueur. Just days ago a group of radicals surrounded the conservative Heritage Foundation’s building, with a couple activists telling the crowd that they need to find out “where they live,” “where their office is,” and “where they go to church,” referring to those inside.

There are far too many historical examples of what happens when the good are silent. The Holocaust, for example.

It is time for good to wake up, speak up, and never be silent again.

President Biden Installing "Roadblocks" For Trump?

 

A new Associated Press report claims that the Biden administration, urged on by a group of leftist “experts” and “legal advisers,” is prepping for the possible return of Donald Trump to the White House…by installing “roadblocks" to inhibit Trump's ability to fire government workers and otherwise make changes he may deem necessary to make the country great again.

It never stops with these people. The more they talk of saving “our democracy,” the more they do to undermine it. Though the AP may look at this as a good thing, if true the claims are gravely serious. Negating citizens’ votes and denying the will of the people is as undemocratic as it gets-- not to mention disgusting, criminal, unconstitutional, and treasonous.

Siccing federal intelligence agencies on Trump, covering up his political opponents “shenanigans” and crimes, lying under oath, arbitrarily changing states’ voting laws, ushering in massive mail-in voting, somehow receiving and/or counting hundreds of thousands of votes for Biden in the middle of the night with almost none for Trump, launching endless spurious lawsuits against Trump with the intention of preventing him from campaigning and putting him in prison, and threatening to pack the court and end the filibuster are just some of the things Democrats, Deep Staters, and assorted other never-Trumpers have done, almost all with the stated intention of “preserving our democracy.”

Mindboggling. Joseph Stalin, Chairman Mao, and Pol Pot weren’t much more opposed to democracy…and were far less hypocritical.

And yet Democrats, Deep Staters, and assorted other never-Trumpers always seem to get away with it. Always.

At some point, that is on those of us who purport to be fond of our democratic republic…and those who would make it great again.

Iran Claims Antarctica

 

It has come to light that Iran, via a televised broadcast last September by the country’s naval commander, claims to own Antarctica. That’s right. Owns. Antarctica.

Apparently, the Islamic Republic wants to diversify. Much of the nation is desert-like and brutally hot much of the time. Antarctica, by contrast, is covered in ice and brutally cold virtually the entire year. And yet the nation formerly known as Persia purports to have plans to build a military base at the frozen bottom of the world. Good luck with that, boys.

Do the mullahs think they can hit Israel—or “The Great Satan”— with a missile launched from Antarctica? That’s problematic at best, despite the latest $6 billion the Biden administration gifted them.

Maybe they just have a fondness for penguins.

Anti-Valentine's Day Movement Growing

 

               The Washington Post recently published an article by Petula Dvorak titled, “The anti-Valentine’s Day movement is gaining strength.”

              She started: Let’s be honest. Valentine’s Day has more potential to hurt, harm, terrorize and traumatize people than anything Halloween serves up.

              Huh?

              But, apparently, I’m the fool. I didn’t know that there was an “anti-Valentine’s Day” movement, let alone that it is quickly gaining strength.

Dvorak obviously approves of the movement and cites allegedly popular nail designs sporting phrases like “Ew, No” or “tiny middle fingers” and hearts slashed by a “no” sign as symbols of the growing resistance to a day celebrating love and commitment. Moreover, she notes that Etsy “is a parade” of “aggressively anti-Valentine’s Day” merchandise, including items with phrases such as, “Love is in the air, try not to breathe” and “Fries before guys.”  

Sweet.

Dvorak closes by noting that the push back to Valentine’s Day is really “about choosing yourself.”

Lovely sentiment. We can all buy ourselves dinner and a show—and bring ourselves a dozen roses and perhaps a box of chocolates. Maybe even pop the question to ourselves before running off to Vegas to get hitched to ourselves and embarking on a life of sologamy.

Well, you know, that’s what makes the world go ‘round. Right?

Valentine’s Day originated as a Christian feast (honoring a martyr named Saint Valentine). Perhaps that is partly why some of a “progressive” bent have come to disdain it. There are those who prefer to observe a “National Day of Mourning” rather than Thanksgiving, many who abhor Christmas. There are those who dismiss the Fourth of July and Memorial Day. The majority of us now just view the latter two as a day off and an excuse to party like it’s 1999. Leftists increasingly try to rebrand Mother’s Day and Father’s Day as “Parent’s Day,” “Birthing People’s Day,” or “Sperm Contributor’s Day.” As always, leftists want us to bastardize our language, forget our past, dispense with our traditions, disengage with God, and demean and demolish everything we once held dear.

What they are really saying is how bitter, craven, intolerant, and small they are.

Maybe some new additions to Sweetheart Candies would be in order to reflect their “values:”

*”Bleep off!”

*“I chaos!

*”I hate God!”

*”Love stinks!”

*”Screw You!”

*“I hate.

*”Nothing matters”

*”We all suck”

*”Boys bite!”

*”Kill Cupid!”

Faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love?

Maybe not so much anymore if we allow these progressive ingrates to get their way.

And that would be surpassingly sad.

U.N. Asked To Appeal Texas Bills

 

According to thecollegefix.com, something called the University of Texas Law Human Rights Clinic (!) filed a formal complaint with the United Nations recently on behalf of several LGBTQ+ organizations.

The complaint essentially petitions the UN to address various bills in the Texas legislature banning minors from drag queen shows, banning “sexually oriented performances” on public property that could be “reasonably expected to be viewed” by minors, and banning “educationally unsuitable, pervasively vulgar, and sexually explicit materials” in schools.

I mean, who could be against those things? And if a state has the audacity to enact laws it—and its residents—deem necessary, the world body should step in and prevent such egregious nonsense, right? A little pervasively vulgar, sexually explicit material never hurt a kid, right?

But the University of Texas Law Human Rights Clinic (UTLHRC) complaint doesn’t go far enough if you ask me. Here are some other things I’d like to see the UN pressure American states to do in the near future.

*Expand the legality and availability of hallucinogenic drugs for “recreational” use.

*See that every community with a population of 1,000 or more has its own Planned Parenthood clinic.

*Make ranked-choice mail-in balloting mandatory across the United States. EVERY PRECINCT IN EVERY STATE!

*Make all schools/teaching entities replace the word “history” with “her story,” as in American Herstory 1101.

*Ban the sale and possession of red hats.

*Ban the existence of “yacht clubs.”

*Remove MAGA from every word in the English language. Example: magazine (would become simply “zine,” as in, “What is that zine you are reading, Pat?”)

*Force Fox news and Newsmax off the air. And give massive subsidies to outlets such as MSNBC.

*Ban the manufacture and sale of all firearms—and lobby for the enactment of common-sense knife, bat, weedwhacker, rope, and candlestick control laws.

*See that every roadway in the United states features at least as many bike lanes as lanes for automobiles.

*Ban gasoline powered generators, lawn equipment, etc.

*Make every city in America with a population of more than 250,000 a “fifteen-minute city” by enacting and enforcing strict zoning standards.

              Wouldn’t that be UNbelievable?!

University Of Oregon Workshop To Help The Gender Diverse Fight The Capitalist Patriarchy

 

According to thecollegefix.com, a description of a University of Oregon workshop reads:

Have the material and psychic conditions of capitalist patriarchy prevented you from being the confident, nerdy bicycle mechanic you would love to be? Calling femmes, women, trans, non-binary, and other gender diverse humans wanting to learn (or learn more) about the joys of bicycle maintenance!!! FTW (Femmes/Trans/Women).

Thank Gaia for higher education! Are you “gender diverse?” Have the material and psychic conditions of the “capitalist patriarchy” prevented you from being the confident, nerdy bicycle mechanic you’ve always dreamed of being? Or have the material and psychic conditions of the “capitalist patriarchy” prevented you from learning about, say, automotive repair, poetry, the history of cheese, masturbation…or gender diversity? I thought so! Well, look to your local college or university to make things right.

FTW power always! Peace out!

Florida To Mandate Only U.S., State Flags To Fly Outside Government Buildings

 

 Florida Governor Ron DeSantis recently endorsed legislation that would ban flags other than the official banners of the United States and the state of Florida from flying outside government buildings in the Peninsula State. The bill, SB 1120, which subsequently stalled in the Senate, would establish that a “governmental entity may not erect or display a flag that represents a political viewpoint, including, but not limited to, a politically partisan, racial, sexual orientation and gender, or political ideology viewpoint. The governmental entity must remain neutral when representing political viewpoints in displaying or erecting a flag.”

Taxpayer-funded government/public buildings should remain politically neutral and not beholden to special interest groups? What a concept! Bravo, Gov. DeSantis! Of course, speaking of special interest groups, some in the “LGBTQ community” believe the bill was targeted at them. But that, of course, is so much BS. It is preposterous that a “Heterosexual,” “Polyamorous,” “Muslim,” “Jewish,” “Mulatto,” “BLM,” “Pro-choice,” “Capricorn,” or “Satanic Temple” flag should fly above any U.S. government building or edifice. Neither should a “Engineers Do It Better,” “Kansas City Chiefs,” or “Cisgender Alcoholics Matter” banner. Period. Even a “Jolly Roger” is not necessary. And we all know what banners bearing Swastikas and a Hammer & Sickle did to humanity.

If the Ten Commandments cannot even be posted in a public square, flags touting certain sexual proclivities and political viewpoints shouldn’t be allowed to fly outside of—or above—government buildings in an ostensibly free republic.

Conservatives know this in their bones, and act accordingly. Leftists don’t care about anything other than what can enhance—and exhibit-- their power. A banner from one of their constituency groups flying proudly above a capitol building perfectly illustrates this. Conservatives still believe in e Pluribus unum-- out of many one. Leftists want to divide so they can conquer.

Of course, leftists project their motives onto their political opponents.

But most of us now know this is just a false flag operation.

Special Counsel Finds Biden Not Guilty By Reason Of Incompetence

 

Special Counsel Ben Robert Hur recently released his report on now President Biden’s handling of classified materials. It read, in part, as follows: “Our investigation uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen. These materials included (1) marked classified documents about military and foreign policy in Afghanistan, and (2) notebooks containing Mr. Biden’s handwritten entries about issues of national security and foreign policy implicating sensitive intelligence sources and methods.”

Moreover, reports indicate that some of the materials from his notebooks may have been used in his book, “Promise Me Dad”--  and that Biden appears to have shared classified information with the book’s ghostwriters. Yikes.

So, did Mr. Hur recommend charges against Biden? Perhaps the electric chair for treasonable offenses?

No.

In fact, he concluded criminal prosecution is not warranted at this point, even though Biden kept the documents as a private citizen after his vice presidency concluded. (And the vice-president, unlike the president, can’t declassify documents as he or she wishes.)

Former President Obama’s White House physician avers that the special counsel report proves that Biden has serious cognitive issues that are getting worse by the day. But Hur seems to have used those issues as a reason not to punish Biden. Hur’s report characterized the president as a "sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory." Wow. On the other hand, we all know that former President Trump is an “unsympathetic, ill-meaning, elderly man with a functional memory…and a burning hatred of truth, justice, and the American Way.” Right?

You’ve gotta be kidding me. Hur’s conclusion demonstrably, irrefutably proves there is now a two-tier “justice” system in the (formerly) United States. Which is unfortunate since, as our founders knew, equal justice under the law is a prerequisite for a functioning democratic republic. It is a must if citizens are to feel loyalty to their fellow man—and their nation.

God help us all.
