• And the racist pro-crime Left wants more.

"Over the last decade, BLM, and assorted leftist and libertarian groups dismantled our criminal justice system. 

Police forces were defunded, pro-crime prosecutors refused to lock up criminals, federal and state prison systems released tens of thousands of them, and a wave of legislative decriminalization legalized everything from shoplifting, to drug dealing and mugging...

White House Alters Transcript After Biden's Embarrassing Overseas Gaffe

White House Alters Transcript After Biden's Embarrassing Overseas Gaffe: 

Another day, another embarrassing Joe Biden gaffe on the world stage. In his muddled state, the president not only managed to appear clueless but also brought up a painful historical reference for Ireland, the country Biden is visiting this week. While there is nothing unusual about Biden beclowning himself, it was somewhat surprising to discover the official White House transcript of the remarks made an awkward effort to editorialize a correction into the text.

Janet Protasiewicz's 98% Vote Shares in Wisconsin Compared to North Korea - BY DARRAGH ROCHE 

• Liberals Win Wisconsin Supreme Court Majority

"Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Janet Protasiewicz's victory in the race for a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court on Tuesday has been compared to a North Korean election after she won more than 90 percent of the vote in some wards.
Protasiewicz is a liberal who was supported by Democrats in the race, which was technically nonpartisan, and she defeated Republican-backed Daniel Kelly...
Some on social media pointed to the fact that Protasiewicz won by overwhelming margins in some wards in the state, which drew comparisons to elections in North Korea.

• Twitter user @umichvoter, who regulalry tweets about elections and politics, pointed to the fact that in some wards, the vote for Protasiewicz was nearing 100 percent. For example, in Madison Ward 19 she won 98 percent support—1,972 votes—to Kelly's 50 votes, or 3 percent due to rounding.
• Similarly, in Madison Ward 40, Protasiewicz won 1,876 votes to Kelly's 44—meaning the liberal judge won 98 percent of the votes cast. Newsweek has verified these numbers...

• People's opposition to Biden's forced EV plan is the new "culture war" says the NYT. 
• MSNBC says saying a man can't have a baby means there is a "war" on transgenders. 
• The Washington Post claims people like Elon Musk and Jordan Peterson cutting down biased "journalists" who know nothing is a threat. 
• CNN says people are "coming for" women's right to electively abort a baby as a form of birth control.
