Obama DHS Sec'y Johnson: 'The Situation on the Southern Border Is Troubling' - Number of Attempted Crossings 'Way Too High'
On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “New Day,” former DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson said that “the situation on the southern border is troubling” and that the 180,000 people attempting to enter the U.S. encountered by Border Patrol in May “is way too high.”

...THE point!


 

The long knives are out!-----Kamala Harris Facing White House Sabotage as Establishment Media Lay Out Pete Buttigieg’s Path to Presidency

Kamala Harris Facing White House Sabotage as Establishment Media Lay Out Pete Buttigieg’s Path to Presidency
  • Vice President Kamala Harris is facing White House sabotage as the establishment media lay out Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg’s path to the presidency.
"With Harris’s history of “mistreatment of employees and dissent” before entering the White House, the establishment media have begun reporting on the infighting and “sabotage” impacting the office of the vice president.
“It’s a whisper campaign designed to sabotage her,” Biden’s senior adviser Cedric Richmond said, admitting Friday to the Hill the infighting is real.
Axios reported Friday Harris’s aides are panicked that she is “fucking up” and perhaps “shouldn’t be the heir apparent” for 2024’s presidential race because she “could not defeat whomever the Republican Party puts up.”...Read all.

US educators slam math workbook that claims it's racist to ask students to get the right answer | Daily Mail Online

"Now MATH is racist: Educators condemn $1M 'Dismantling Racism in Mathematics' program funded by Bill Gates which tells teachers NOT to push students to find the correct answer because it promotes white supremacy...
  • It centers around a workbook which asserts that asking students to find the correct answer for math problems is inherently harmful for minorities
  • So far, the workbook is being used by school districts in Georgia, Ohio, California and Oregon...
  • 'The workbook's ultimate message is clear: Black kids are bad at math, so why don't we just excuse them from really learning it,' one critic said
  • The program was funded through a $1million grant from The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
  • It's part of a larger push nationwide to teach students about critical race theory...Read all.

Jen Psaki Can't Name GOPer Who Wants to 'Defund the Police' - Louder With Crowder

Jen Psaki Can't Name GOPer Who Wants to 'Defund the Police' - Louder With Crowder
The Joe Biden White House thinks you're stupid. Or, they know they can lie and 95% of the media will swear by it, and the media thinks you're stupid. Decide amongst yourselves which of those two options makes you the most stabby. Because Jen Psaki is going all in on "ackschually, Republicans are the ones who want to defund the police." It's not the leftist protesters threatening police officers on the regular. It's not the Biden-supporting teachers' unions who threatened to not go back to work if the police weren't defunded. It's not even the Biden White House that never misses an opportunity to throw cops under the bus for political points.

Dead last!-----U.S. Has Lowest Trust of Media In 46 Countries Surveyed, According to Reuters Institute Report

U.S. Has Lowest Trust of Media In 46 Countries Surveyed, According to Reuters Institute Report

As a collective industry, our mainstream corporate predominantly liberal and leftist media is manipulative, arrogant, elitist, demeaning, smug, and manipulative (but I repeat myself).

It’s no surprise that a just-released Report by the Reuters Institute and the University of Oxford finds US ranks last among 46 countries in trust in media:

The United States ranks last in media trust — at 29% — among 92,000 news consumers surveyed in 46 countries, a report released Wednesday found. That’s worse than Poland, worse than the Philippines, worse than Peru. (Finland leads at 65%.)...Read all!

The way we were-----History of DeSoto & Why the Brand Was Cancelled (1928-1961) - Rise, Fall...

Suppose You Were A Member Of Congress

“Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress; but I repeat myself.”  – Mark Twain

"...this is going to be an "epic catastrophe." ..."

Donald Sensing
"A retired Army colonel with combat tours in Afghanistan (and Iraq) told me that this is going to be an "epic catastrophe." 
I agree.
 He also commented what China, Russia, India, and Iran do there as foreign troops vacate "will be interesting," which is something of an understatement.
OTOH, Afghanistan's history shows that it is unmanageable, IMO, and the Soviets spent 10 or 11 years there with no good outcome.
Just what the strategic value would be for any of those four countries to become involved there I cannot posit, especially since they would not be cooperating with each other at all."

Never trust the "american" media. NEVER!-----Are We Nazi Germany? - American Thinker

Are We Nazi Germany? - American Thinker
"I've noticed that whenever the subject of Nazi Germany is raised, someone always says something like this: "It's unbelievable that Adolf Hitler was able to manipulate and control the entire German population. It just seems impossible." Yet that's exactly what he did. 
 Yes, there were some dissenters and political foes, but they were subdued and quashed as the boundless power of the Nazi regime shut down all dissent with the use of the brown-shirted Sturmabteilung or SA, the Schutzstaffel or SS, and the dreaded Gestapo or Geheime Staatspolizei.
...Like a lot of Americans, I always assumed that America was safe from the kind of tyranny the German people experienced under the heavy hand of the Third Reich. 
There is no way our federal, state, and local governments could restrain and control the American people the way Hitler and his Nazis dominated the German population, I thought.
Yet, for the past eighteen months, that's exactly what has happened in America.
A nation that always prided itself on its independence and individuality was suddenly locked down. 
  • Travel was restricted, 
  • schools and businesses were shuttered, 
  • we were commanded to wear face masks, 
  • voting laws were altered, 
  • isolation and quarantines were mandated, and 
  • speech was censored by social and mainstream media if Big Tech oligarchs judged what was said or written as "misinformation."
It didn't stop there. 
  •  A public health emergency was declared, 
  • borders were closed, and 
  • large gatherings were forbidden — including church attendance, funerals, and weddings.
In short, civil liberties that Americans had always taken for granted were suspended by those in power, just as the Nazis rescinded the rights of the German people, including a free press guaranteed by Germany's Weimar Republic (1918 to 1933). 
 The German press quickly complied with its new masters...Read all.

YouTube Takes Down Right Side Broadcasting's Video of Trump Rally with Over 2 Million Views -- BANS THEM from Covering Trump Rally Tomorrow -- WATCH ON RUMBLE!
"President Trump held his first rally of the political season on Saturday in Wellington, Ohio at the Lorain County Fairgrounds.
  • Trump held the rally in support of Max Miller who is challenging Rep. Anthony Gonzalez, a Never-Trumper who voted to impeach President Trump in January.
The event was PACKED hours before President Trump’s speech.
Right Side Broadcasting Network aired the live feed for the rally tonight in Ohio.
38,000 supporters were watching the rally at 5 PM ET — two hours before the event.
This compares to a typical Biden speech that draws around 700 viewers during the entire live speech!
There were 181,000 supporters watching the rally on RSBN at around 7 PM and President Trump had not even hit the stage!
When Donald Trump took the stage 195,000 were watching!
The RSBN video had over 2 million views of the Ohio rally.
That was too much for the DNC and YouTube.
YouTube took the video down this week!"

Turning America's schools into madrassas of hate...and ignorance!-----To Eradicate Critical Theories in K-12 Parents Need to Know about the Invisible Layer of Control

To Eradicate Critical Theories in K-12 Parents Need to Know about the Invisible Layer of Control

"The battle over curriculum using critical theories in the K-12 classroom is raging nationwide. Legislatures have taken up the issue in some states, either mandating or prohibiting these curriculums.

...However, discussions often ignore one important group. In between the state education department and the local school district is a layer of non-profits. While you may be familiar with accreditation for colleges and specific types of degree programs, certain organizations provide accreditation at the K-12 level in about 20 states...

...it could be because Cognia and its president and CEO, Mark Elgart, Ed.D., clearly fall on one side of the debate over critical theories. Here is Elgart’s statement on “diversity, equity, and inclusion,” the code words for the discussion raging nationwide: Read all!



MOTUS A.D.: It All Looks Quite Shady

MOTUS A.D.: It All Looks Quite Shady

"I forgot that today is FLOTUS Friday, and what with Dr. Jilly hitting the Vogue cover (photography by none other than the legendary Lefty Annie Liebowitz!)...

I didn’t bother to read the article until the Jerusalem Post took time out of their busy day to mock America’s fawning media coverage of the FLOTUS: Why did ‘Vogue’ call Dr. Jill Biden a ‘goddess in stilettos?’

jills goddess feetThe real reason God created hosiery

I would say Dr. Jilly looks more like an aging school marm than a goddess given these feet, legs and hands but what do I know compared to America’s leading fashion rag mag...

...But allow The Jerusalem Post to describe Vogue’s obsequious coverage:

As if the title of its cover story – “A First Lady for All of Us: On the Road with Dr. Jill Biden” – wasn’t sufficiently sycophantic, its accompanying content reads like a parody of a totalitarian regime’s propaganda sheet.

Those observing the current Orwellian climate in the United States no longer gasp at each new move by “progressives” to control society’s collective mind, but some take occasional breaks from tearing their hair out to laugh at the more egregious examples…Not that he was trying to be funny. On the contrary, he was clearly proud of praising Jill Biden, in all seriousness, for the “several degrees” that earned her the “title [of doctor] that she has every right to.”

To stress that she’s not just a teacher in girlie garb, he said that during her many trips around the country, “the role she’s fulfilling is, in many ways, neither first lady nor professor but a key player in her husband’s administration, a West Wing surrogate and policy advocate.”

…Yes, he wrote, “Joe Biden is boring – and that’s not a complaint.”

Of Dr. Jill, on the other hand, he said, “You generally hear her before you see her because she is often laughing. She is, quite simply, a joy multiplier.” [ed. – “joy multiplier” is no doubt part of the new Common Core math, of which we’ll explore a bit more tomorrow.]

Instapundit--I SUSPECT THAT CHINA IS QUIETLY PROMOTING THE WEST’S SELF-HATRED AND SELF-FLAGELLATION:

"Xi Jinping has projected himself as the ‘Strong Horse’ and painted China as an attractive future in contrast to Joe Biden and the self-hating West which cannot even find something good to say about itself.

As I’ve said, the kind of history being promoted by the 1619 Project and the “antiracism” movement generally is the kind of history that a conqueror would impose upon a conquered population in order to break its will.--Posted by
