UC Davis workshop to address ‘mobility justice’ and ‘bicycle equity’ | The College Fix

UC Davis workshop to address ‘mobility justice’ and ‘bicycle equity’ | The College Fix
"A rather interesting workshop is coming to the University of California-Davis this November, one involving “mobility justice” which examines the intersections of so-called “bike equity” and “sustainable transportation futures.”
Sponsored by the campus Feminist Research Institute, the two-day event will include a “deep discussion” regarding the “complexity of equity” associated with making bikes and establishing new “mobilities,” but also will consider power relationships and racism.

Unsurprisingly, the concept of “mobility justice” comes from the critical studies field, as well as from “a collective of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) working in bicycling and sustainable transportation”:
Mobility justice examines how the racialized histories of cities and transportation systems limit the mobilities of certain communities in uneven ways. Racial justice scholarship seeks to account for how histories of colonialism and ongoing structures of white supremacy have produced systems of inequality for communities of color. It also examines alternative models that undo harmful practices and foster healing..."

While progressives ignore the negative consequences of a national popular vote, they greatly exaggerate the positive impact on voters in coastal states like California. It is unlikely that voters in Bakersfield or San Bernardino, Redding or Rio Linda would see any more of presidential candidates than they do now. If state borders no longer mattered in presidential elections, it is unlikely candidates would spend any time in rural – or even suburban – areas.

By Any Means Necessary: It Won't Stop with Andy Ngo | Belmont Club
"Hints that the already high levels of political hostility were about to reach record intensity gathered like storm warnings in the press last week. 
According to the New York Times, "Oregon’s 11 Senate Republicans fled their state with little more than spare underwear and their passports. 
They disappeared into Idaho cabins and motels" to avoid voting for taxes on climate change.
See the source image...That chaos and divisiveness bordered on open revolt. 
Jimmy Carter suggested that a full investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election would show that Donald Trump was illegitimate. 
Not to be outdone, Democratic presidential candidate Julián Castro says President Trump liked to terrorize immigrant families by postponing ICE raids until after July 4th. 
To hear the politicians talk America was living under a tyranny.
The politicians were if anything restrained compared to the press. 
A guest editorial in the New York Times argued that since the treatment of migrants likely "meets the definition of a mass atrocity," it would be good if government officials were identified and charged with war crimes.
[T]he identities of the individual Customs and Border Protection agents who are physically separating children from their families and staffing the detention centers are not undiscoverable. Immigration lawyers have agent names; journalists reporting at the border have names, photos and even videos. These agents’ actions should be publicized, particularly in their home communities ...
The individuals running detention centers are arguably directly responsible for torture ... activists should ... should lobby for human rights investigations, for other governments to deny entry visas to those involved in the abuses, or even for the initiation of torture prosecutions in foreign courts.
...There was in the drumbeat a buildup suggestive of teams psyching themselves to do something bold, building up a mood of defiance and despair so incandescent that Andy Ngo, a conservative journalist preparing to cover an event in Oregon, feared for his safety.  He tweeted on June 29, "I am nervous about tomorrow’s Portland antifa rally. They’re promising 'physical confrontation' & have singled me out to be assaulted." 
There were actual leaflets announcing the planned attack on Ngo..."

I scanned my skin to reveal sun damage, and the results were mind-blowing - CNET:
"After getting a Visia scan, I've never been more committed to wearing sunscreen every day.
I stick my face into a machine, place my chin on the chin rest and close my eyes. 
Three flashes of light and mere seconds later,  I can see every flaw on my face highlighted on a set of close-up photos.
...Here's what I learned from having my face scanned that no dermatologist has told me before.
...I was genuinely taken aback when I saw my UV photo. Just by looking at my face, I don't see much of what I would consider to be signs of sun exposure -- such as freckles or dark spots. 
But with the UV photo, I can see widespread damage..."

Bernie Sanders' own state showed 'Medicare for all' won't work

Bernie Sanders' own state showed 'Medicare for all' won't work:

Image result for flickr commons images bernie sandersThe first and most uncomfortable question was raised moments later in the same debate by Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet. Bernie Sanders' home state of Vermont, governed entirely by Democrats at the time, killed off its proposal for single-payer healthcare. Democratic Gov. Pete Shumlin signed the bill to implement the program in 2011. He also pulled the plug on the program in 2015 when he found out that it would double his state's budget. Vermonters would have had to pay an 11.5% payroll tax, plus a 9-point increase in the state income tax.

"How can one justify a city-wide ban on E-cigarettes and fund "safe injection sites" for drugs? --Fans of Best of the Web Today

Fans of Best of the Web Today--Michael Smith

  • How can one justify a city-wide ban on E-cigarettes and fund "safe injection sites" for drugs? 
  • How is it even remotely logical to ban cigarettes and promote legalization of marijuana? 
  • What sense does it make to ban private assistance to feed the homeless and then complain that there isn't enough funding for food programs for them? 
  • How can you argue for free healthcare for illegal non-citizens when American veterans can't get help? 
  • How can you argue that it is discriminatory to refuse to bake a cake for a same sex wedding but forcing a baker to do so against their will is not? 
  • How can you cry about the sanctity of elections and then refuse to put measures in place to validate the eligibility of the voters? 
  • How can you argue that a particular redistricting is unconstitutional and then promote open borders? How can you argue argue for background checks and restrictions to own a gun and ammunition because "if it can save one child, it is worth it" and then say that abortions should be free without restriction? 
  • How can you argue that school shootings are aberrations when more children are aborted each day in abortion clinics than are killed in all school shootings?

This is your modern Democrat party.
They no longer are required to make sense.

This is all about power and pandering to anyone who will vote to give it to
them."

Kamala Harris’ Great-Grandmother Exposed as Plantation Slave Owner – Conservative Headlines

Image result for Kamala Harris slave plantation ownerKamala Harris’ Great-Grandmother Exposed as Plantation Slave Owner – Conservative Headlines
"Kamala Harris is a true Democrat. According to Kamala Harris’ father, the Democratic presidential hopeful’s great-grandmother was a Jamaican slave plantation owner who founded the city of Brown’s Town, Jamaica.
Former MTV VJ Adam Curry, read quotes directly from Harris’ father’s book, “Reflections of a Jamaican Father.”
Reflections of a Jamaican Father
By Donald J. Harris
...My roots go back, within my lifetime, to my paternal grandmother Miss Chrishy (née Christiana Brown, descendant of Hamilton Brown who is on record as plantation and slave owner and founder of Brown’s Town) and to my maternal grandmother Miss Iris (née Iris Finegan, farmer and educator, from Aenon Town and Inverness, ancestry unknown to me)…"
Kamala Harris is a direct descendant of Jamaican slave owners, that makes her a true Democrat.

Will Harris be held to the same standard as others with racial controversies in their family tree?
For example, NASCAR river Conor Daly lost sponsors after being attacked by liberals over a racial slur used by his father in an interview during the early 1980s..."

Is that really their plan?
