And the goons who destroyed our cities walk free?-----Politico: Biden Admin Will Be “Embarrassed” When Most Capitol Hill “Insurrectionists” Receive No Jail Time

Politico: Biden Admin Will Be “Embarrassed” When Most Capitol Hill “Insurrectionists” Receive No Jail Time

• “Although prosecutors have loaded up their charging documents with language about the existential threat of the insurrection to the republic, the actions of many of the individual rioters often boiled down to trespassing.”

Democrats were eager to seize upon the events at the Capitol on January 6th as their Reichstag moment in order to clamp down on “domestic terrorism,”...
In that, they were successful. 

The media was eager to help them with their goals and are still claiming that the Capitol Hill “insurrection” claimed five lives. 
...This has Politico fretting about how the Biden administration will be “embarrassed” when all those Americans they eagerly and publicly condemned as traitors and seditionists and insurrectionists walk on misdemeanor trespassing charges and the like...Read all.

Publisher HarperCollins Is Pushing Radical Trans Agenda on Elementary School Kids

Publisher HarperCollins Is Pushing Radical Trans Agenda on Elementary School Kids

"Did you know that March 31 is something called the Transgender Day of Visibility? 

Because, apparently, we aren’t already getting enough of the transgender agenda shoved in our faces every other day of the year, so the trans agenda needs its own day to feel more empowered to indoctrinate the public.

Well, it’s bad enough being an adult, but sadly, if you want to protect your kids from the transgender agenda, it’s becoming increasingly more difficult to do so. 

Publisher HarperCollins is using their children’s book imprints to push the radical trans agenda on kids as young as eight years old. 

On Wednesday, the HarperCollins Twitter account for promoting their books for middle-grade children tweeted about the Transgender Day of Visibility and posted a link to one of the publisher’s microsites, which is promoting five books “by trans & nonbinary authors” in order to “affirm how necessary it is for kids of all gender expressions & identities to know that trans kids deserve safety, acceptance, & respect” or something...Read all.

Here Are Some of the Most Outrageous Line Items In Biden's $2.2T 'Infrastructure' Bill

Here Are Some of the Most Outrageous Line Items In Biden's $2.2T 'Infrastructure' Bill

"...Breitbart News broke most of the bill down but here are some of the more outrageous line items:

— $400 billion toward expanding access to quality, affordable home- or community-based care for aging relatives and people with disabilities.

— $213 billion to produce, preserve, and retrofit more than two million affordable and sustainable places to live (and we know who will and who won’t ‘qualify’ for these homes, don’t we?)

— $174 billion to win the electric vehicle market

— $80 billion to address Amtrak’s repair backlog; modernize the high traffic Northeast Corridor; improve existing corridors and connect new city pairs (when will we learn that train travel as Amtrak does it is obsolete? Now bullet trains, that’s something else)

— $56 billion in grants and low-cost flexible loans to states, Tribes, territories, and disadvantaged communities across the country

— $50 billion to create a new office at the Department of Commerce dedicated to monitoring domestic industrial capacity (obviously multi-year funding but $50 billion for a new agency?)

— $48 billion in American workforce development infrastructure and worker protection (huh?)...Read all.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott responds after Joe Biden says states should re-enact face mask mandates - TheBlaze

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott responds after Joe Biden says states should re-enact face mask mandates - TheBlaze: 

In fact, frequency of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations continue on the downward trend in Texas — cases have fallen by 17% and deaths have fallen by 34% over the past two weeks — and there are no indications that those metrics will rise or that there is a lag in COVID-19 problems stemming from the mask mandate being lifted.

Mississippi has experienced even better results since lifting its mask mandate.

Meanwhile, other states that continue to require masks and place restrictions on residents — New York, Michigan, and New Jersey, for example — are experiencing a rise in COVID-19 cases.

Passivity Is a Choice, and We Made It by Kurt Schlichter

"There’s always an uproar when we see Asian-Americans being beaten to a pulp or murdered on video and the people around them just stare instead of intervene. 

But why are we surprised? 

They are just doing exactly what society has told them to do. 

It’s not necessarily cowardice. 

They are making an entirely rational choice based on our society’s unequivocal message that we should stand back and watch.

...But if you do intervene, your trouble just begins. 

Even if you are in the right does not mean an intervention will go your way. 

If you are in the wrong jurisdiction, with one of those leftist-bought district attorneys, then you run the risk of being prosecuted even if you did everything right. 

...Or, if someone videotapes the encounter, maybe your life gets ruined because the thug you shot is of an SJW-favored group. 

Do you think the facts matter? 

Do you think the crook’s criminal record, actions before bystanders started filming, or anything else is going to get in the way of the narrative? 

Come on. 

You cannot rely on objective truth to protect you in a world of subjectivity and lies.

...When we choose, as a society, to punish those who intervene, it’s hard to be shocked when people don’t. 

People can rationally calculate risk and reward – “Okay, that nice Asian grandma is going to have a black eye, and that’s bad, but I’m going to go home in one piece tonight and not be bankrupted or tossed in jail forever, so I can live with it.”...Read all.

Ilhan Omar Defends Biden on Border Crisis - Louder With Crowder: 

When in doubt, blame Donald Trump. That's modus operandi for the Democrat Party. Nancy Pelosi made that clear when she said the crisis on the border, while not a crisis, is totally Donald Trump's fault anyway. Rep. Ilhan Omar tried spinning it as Donald Trump's fault as well. But she accidentally pointed out that what's happening now is because of Biden's policies.

Biden Infrastructure Plan a Massive Political Slush-Fund | National Review

• The problem is not federal infrastructure spending per se, but ‘infrastructure’ bills that are in fact political slush-funds.

"...President Joe Biden is proposing a multi-trillion-dollar “infrastructure” plan that actually isn’t all that focused on infrastructure — because bullsh** is the common currency of this realm — and one of the things high on his agenda is subsidizing broadband Internet connections for areas that don’t have them. 

By industry estimates, about 93 percent of Americ
ans have access to a broadband connection, and those who don’t mostly live in remote and rural areas. 

...But the Democratic Party increasingly is the party of affluent, educated professionals, and the yuppies are going to get what they want, including subsidized broadband for their country homes.

One of the many other things they want is to not be the ones who actually pay for Biden’s infrastructure plan...Read all.

CA Public School Teachers Teaching Migrants In-Person - Louder With Crowder

CA Public School Teachers Teaching Migrants In-Person - Louder With Crowder: Over a year after fifteen days to flatten the curve, there are still school districts in this country that aren't doing in-person teaching. Meltdowns from frustrated parents are common. Depression and suicide in students are the pandemic we aren't allowed to talk about. But the teachers' unions viewed this as an opportunity to hold parents hostage until their demands are met (allegedly) and regularly claim it's not safe for them to teach in person. They're also aided by a president who is bought and paid for by the teachers' unions. Again, allegedly. San Diego is one of those districts, but teachers are starting to teach students in person again! No, not San Diego students, but illegal immigrants who are here as part of Joe Biden's border crisis. If there is a better example of the disconnect between the far left and the American people over immigration, I can't think of one. Per Fox News:

The FBI sure seems to be focusing on the good guys, not the mass murderers.

Get ready for the next phase of the cancel culture: It will be the most diabolical yet

• ‘Our children are vaccinated against liberty from the day they start kindergarten’

"By now, everyone is aware of the agenda embraced by America’s public schools — teaching children to be ashamed of their country, which they are told was founded by white supremacists.
According to this narrative, embedded in many high school curricula including the popular 1619 Project, all of America’s historic successes, its rise to super-power status, it’s robust middle class, are illegitimate, because those who built this country did so on the backs of Native Americans and African slaves.
There is nothing redeemable about America or its Constitution, because these are the products of systemic racism.
...What is equity?
Equity should not be confused with equality.
The two words sound similar but they are antithetical to each other.
Equality means everyone is treated the same and most Americans believe everyone should be afforded equal opportunities.
Equity is a Marxist-imposed formula to achieve equality of outcomes.
While equity is packaged as something new and trendy, it’s actually an old Marxist trick, to divide society into two warring classes, the oppressed and the oppressors. 

They invented the idea of “equity” as a means to treat people differently based on their race, gender, sexual identity and religious affiliation –- encouraging those in certain groups to feel like oppressed victims while saddling others with feelings of guilt and shame.
The graphic below is often used by neo-Marxist thought leaders to illustrate the concept of equity. 

They talk of “leveling the playing field” which means the high-achievers [the beneficiaries of the oppressor class] must be brought down and the low achievers [victims] must be brought up. 

This of course can only be achieved by the intervention of social engineers trained in neo-Marxist critical theory...Much here, read all!

CNN Blows Minds With 'Hard News' Report About Assigning Sex

"Just when you thought things couldn’t get any dumber in our discourse, they do. The most recent example of this dynamic comes courtesy of CNN because why would it come from anyone else?

...Regardless, the hard news side of CNN put out a report in which this whopper of a statement was made.

It’s bad enough that it’s become impossible to even question the transgender ideology on choosing one’s “gender” without having almost every vestige of society crash down on you. 

Worse, we are now seeing the complete redefinition of scientifically objective standards like assigning sex at birth. 

Contrary to what CNN asserts here, there is, in fact, a consensus on doing that, and there has been for the entirety of human history. 

The genitals have long sufficed for an accurate reading of that situation, but we also have DNA to make such determinations as well in the extremely rare case of deformities...Read all.

I have been staying away from it because I think the outcome is pre-determined, and when I say “outcome”, 

• I mean the former cop will either be acquitted of the most serious charges and Minneapolis will burn, 
• he will be convicted of lesser charges and Minneapolis will burn 
• or he will be convicted of murder and Minneapolis will burn.

The constant is that Minneapolis is likely to burn because the masses are not interested in justice, they just want to burn stuff...Read all.
