Everyone who disagrees is a violent racist!-----Juan Williams: 'Parents' rights' is code for white race politics | TheHill---by JUAN WILLIAMS

Juan Williams: 'Parents' rights' is code for white race politics | TheHill--JUAN WILLIAMS, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR

"After white supremacists spilled blood in defense of keeping up Confederate statues in 2017, the GOP candidate for governor of Virginia, Ed Gillespie, said the monuments should stay up as a matter of heritage and history.

...The racially loaded "Culture Wars" campaign, straight from then-President Trump’s playbook, gave Gillespie a push, but he ultimately lost the race to Democrat Ralph Northam.

Now Virginia Republicans are back with a new and improved "Culture Wars" campaign for 2021. The closing argument is once again full of racial division — but this time it is dressed up as a defense of little children.

The rallying cry is "Parents’ Rights."

Terry McAuliffe, the Democratic candidate, calls the Republican message a “racist dog whistle.”

...Polls show the big money coming from the right has resulted in the "Parents’ Rights" movement gaining traction among white voters.

But this movement is not about parents. 

It is about exciting the far-right base by stirring up racial division.

If it works, Republicans will have reason to continue down this dark path to winning elections...Read all.

Gold Star father rips into Biden over reported plan to give massive payments to migrant families - TheBlaze

Gold Star father rips into Biden over reported plan to give massive payments to migrant families - TheBlaze: 

Among the problems critics have raised with the plan, the biggest is that non-citizens stand to receive more money from the U.S. government than gold star families if the plan becomes reality. Currently, the U.S. government pays the family of fallen service members $100,000 in "death gratuity"; the payments are tax exempt. The families of service members also have the option to collect a maximum of $400,000 in life insurance, but service members have to pay into the insurance plan to receive its benefits.

Dennis Prager: Is Stealing Wrong? Not on the Left | The Patriot Post

• In Democrat-run cities such as San Francisco and Los Angeles, retail theft has soared.

"To most readers of this column, the question is absurd. 

The reason is not because the question is, in fact, absurd; it is because most readers of this column are conservative, and many are religious.

Am I implying that most leftists do not believe stealing is wrong?

Yes, I am.

...One proof is the passage of Proposition 47, a California ballot initiative passed in 2014, under which theft of less than $950 in goods is treated as a nonviolent misdemeanor and rarely prosecuted.

...The bottom line is the Left is immoral. 

That is why it defends stealing...Read all.

What if the cash spent on flawed eco schemes went on new green tech that TRULY worked?| Daily Mail Online BJORN LOMBORG

• The great ecological delusion: Costly heat pumps that barely work, electric cars recharged by diesel generators... but what if the cash spent on flawed schemes went on new green tech that REALLY worked?

...Unfortunately, our research also shows that most popular climate policies offer comparatively poor returns on investment to society.
...The Ugandan president put it bluntly: 'Africans have a right to use reliable, cheap energy.'
...The renewable energy sources favoured by the vast majority of environmental activists in wealthier nations have two big problems.

• First, they take up a vast amount of space...
• Second, and of even greater importance, the two most common renewable energy technologies are intermittent or unreliable. Solar energy isn't produced when it is overcast or at night-time. Wind energy requires a breeze...Modern society requires 24 hours of non-stop power, when there's no sun or wind, so fossil fuels are still needed.

...Continuing to do what the EU has done, cutting carbon with a mixture of market and planning diktats, has avoided just 3 pence worth of global damage for each pound spent so far.
...What did work was the Green Revolution (CO2), innovating higher-yielding crops. 

It is likely this saved a billion people from starvation...Read all!

Deace: How the hell did parents lose so much control in our schools? - TheBlaze: 

The Des Moines suburb of Waukee has been a battleground the last few weeks as Rainbow Jihad erotica has been discovered in school libraries. With parents and taxpayers preparing to vote in school board elections on Nov. 2, the debate about parent input and control of their children's education has taken on as much energy as I've ever seen.

New Public Health Threat: Refuge Diseases
"As the U.S. continues to grapple with the coronavirus’s Delta variant, there is mounting evidence that the nation’s nearly two-year-long battle against COVID-19 is diverting attention and resources away from other contagious diseases brought here by waves of Afghan refugees and migrants pouring across the southern border.
In an official Health Advisory issued on September 20, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) alerted clinicians nationwide that the approximately 124,000 evacuees from Afghanistan, including 6,000 U.S. citizens, could include people carrying measles, mumps, leishmaniasis, malaria, and even polio...Read all!

The Investigation of Those "Horrible" Border Patrol Agents on Horses Has Vanished

The Investigation of Those "Horrible" Border Patrol Agents on Horses Has Vanished

Way back on Sept. 24, President Joe Biden finally paid attention to the southern border when he displayed anger at hard-working U.S. Border Patrol agents, vowing that they “will pay” — for something that did not occur.

“It was horrible what — to see, as you saw — to see people treated like they did: horses nearly running them over and people being strapped. It’s outrageous. I promise you, those people will pay,” Biden hyperbolically rambled. “They will be — an investigation is underway now, and there will be consequences. It’s an embarrassment. But beyond an embarrassment, it’s dangerous; it’s wrong. It sends the wrong message around the world. It’s simply not who we are.”

Three days prior, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told MSNBC that, “We need this resolved swiftly. I anticipate that the results of the investigation will be available by the end of next week and I’ve committed to making the results public.”

A former U.S. soldier embarked on a dangerous rescue mission to save his family members and Christians from the Taliban in Afghanistan, according to a Fox News report. The "proud American soldier" claims he was forced to sneak into the Taliban-controlled Afghanistan to rescue his relatives because the U.S. government didn't offer him or his family any assistance.
