Fox News reporter brings out the big guns to expose WH's double standard after Florida Democrats cancel presidential primary | Blaze Media: 

At the daily press briefing, Heinrich reminded White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre of previous statements the Biden administration has made about the issue. For example, President Joe Biden accused Georgia of passing new "Jim Crow" laws when it passed a law in 2021 strengthening election security, and Jean-Pierre herself claimed voter suppression occurred in Georgia last December when, in reality, there was record turnout. "Does the White House still believe that that was true?" Heinrich asked.

We Are Starting To Find Out What Is Beneath The Thin Veneer Of Civilization That We Have All Been Taking For Granted

We Are Starting To Find Out What Is Beneath The Thin Veneer Of Civilization That We Have All Been Taking For Granted - MICHAEL SNYDER

"...Our society is absolutely teeming with predators, crime rates are soaring all over the nation, millions of Americans are afraid to leave their own homes, and hordes of drug addicts are literally pooping in the middle of our streets whenever they feel like it.

In some of our largest cities, highly organized groups of criminals are constantly invading homes...

• Once upon a time, Los Angeles was such a beautiful city. But now it is covered from one end to the other in filth, trash and drug paraphernalia...
• The Big Apple saw a 64% increase in reported incidents of retail theft during the four-year period between mid-2019 and June of this year, while 
• Los Angeles experienced a 61% surge in the same metric, according to the Council on Criminal Justice...
• In Bellevue, Washington, so many vehicles are being stolen that the police are literally giving away steering wheel locks in a desperate attempt to bring auto theft down…

Biden’s new rule against methane becomes ‘final’ By Jack Hellner

Biden’s new rule against methane becomes ‘final’ By Jack Hellner

• It’s not really an exaggeration (if at all) to say that every single day we hear from Hillary Clinton, Liz Cheney, Joe Scarborough, the media, and others about how dangerous President Trump is—ad nauseam they declare how “like Hitler” he is.

"And, it seems every single day, Joe Biden issues some new executive order or regulation assaulting our freedoms and our prosperity...
Now, Joe Biden is dictatorially issuing another rule to handicap the coal, oil, and gas industries...

• The green pushers claim that if we stop using oil, coal, and gas, the “expected” rise in temperature will not occur, and lives will be saved. 
• What they won’t show you is a direct link between coal and oil use, and temperatures, because there is no scientific evidence to show that...

Parents not notified when school forced 11-year-old daughter to share bed with boy, he's "trans" and was in "stealth mode" - Louder With Crowder

Parents not notified when school forced 11-year-old daughter to share bed with boy, he's "trans" and was in "stealth mode" - Louder With Crowder: 

In 2023, for a Colorado school, it means your eleven-year-old daughter sharing a bed with a boy on a field trip. Because the boy identifies as "trans" and was supposed to be in something called "stealth mode." Parents aren't willing to participate. Well, the parents of the girl. The parents of the boy are why we know about "stealth mode."

Our enemies support our energy-collapse!

 

Victor Davis Hanson - October 7 and the Touchstone of Hate

Victor Davis Hanson - October 7 and the Touchstone of Hate 
"The almost immediate posting after October 7 of the BLM poster glorifying the hang-gliding murderous entry into Israel only confirmed what most of us knew anyway. 

• Black lives matter and the entire diversity/equity/inclusion conglomerate rabidly hate Jews...

It is hard to find a major university where an academic on news of October 7 has not vented hatred for Jews...

• Most recently, Christine Blasey Ford-era feminist Rep. Pramila Jayapal called for balance in contextualizing the mass rape of Israeli women (“However, I think we have to be balanced about bringing in the outrages against Palestinians ”) and claimed stuff just happens in war (“I think we always talk about the impact of war on women in particular”). 
• But Israeli women were not just raped in a time of war by soldiers, horrific as that would have been. They were mass raped, mutilated, executed, and desecrated by Hamas thugs who broke into Israel at a time of holiday and peace and deliberately fixated on the unarmed, the elderly, children, infants, and women to do their precivilizational worst, from sexual torture and mutilation to decapitation and necrophilia...

Only a moral monster would seek to equate all that to the collateral damage to civilians...

Follow the "science"?!!

"The tipping points at risk include the collapse of big ice sheets in [Greenland]

Scientists Skeptical of Anthropogenic Global Warming | "The tipping points at risk... Facebook Julius Sanks
"The tipping points at risk include the collapse of big ice sheets in Greenland and the West Antarctic, the widespread thawing of permafrost, the death of coral reefs in warm waters, and the collapse of one oceanic current in the North Atlantic."
— Tipping points are hilarious. 

• They never happen. 
• When the doomsday date passes without anything tipping, the alarmists just move the date. 

Besides, if something actually tips, there's no reason to continue trying to stop it, is there? 

These five so-called tipping points have been forecast for decades. 

I'm still waiting to see one...

Douglas Mackey’s Meme-Related Prison Sentence Halted By Federal Court

Douglas Mackey’s Meme-Related Prison Sentence Halted By Federal Court - Brandon Drey

• Mackey was accused of a “scheme to deprive individuals of their constitutional right to vote” after a Twitter account he ran under the handle “Ricky Vaughn” posted memes in the lead-up to the election. In October, Judge Ann M. Donnelly of Federal District Court in Brooklyn sentenced Mackey to 7 months in prison, a $15,000 fine, and two years probation.

...Mackey was charged one week after President Joe Biden assumed office and roughly four years after the 2016 election. 

The Justice Department claimed that Mackey had conspired to “injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate” people from exercising their right to vote. Prosecutors said that he and others had “intended variously to provoke, mislead, and, in some cases, deceive voters in the 2016 presidential election” with their posts...

• One image showed a black woman standing in front of an “African Americans for Hillary” sign and said, “Avoid the Line. Vote from Home,” and “Text ‘Hillary’ to 59925.”...

AI cameras can now predict and stop crimes before they happen | Blaze Media

AI cameras can now predict and stop crimes before they happen | Blaze Media: 

We’re now living in “Minority Report.” Japan’s National Police are set to embark on a terrifying experiment involving using advanced AI-powered security cameras to pre-empt major crimes. These AI-enhanced cameras will specialize in machine-learning pattern recognition across three distinct categories: behavior detection for spotting suspicious conduct, object detection for identifying weapons, and intrusion detection to safeguard restricted areas.

This initiative is expected to roll out within this fiscal year — ending March 2024 — after the shocking assassination of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and the subsequent attempted attack on current Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. Such high-profile crimes, often committed by so-called "lone offenders" — individuals disassociated from society — have prompted Japan’s police to explore crime-prevention strategies.

Instapundit - FINALLY: Taylor Swift is Time’s person of the year.

Instapundit-FINALLY: Taylor Swift is Time’s person of the year. 

"Taylor Swift’s record-setting year just got a little bit bigger: She was named Time magazine’s person of the year, the first entertainer ever to be a solo honoree.

The big picture: Swift’s Era’s Tour was a national phenomenon, she dominated the charts, had multiple albums hit No. 1 in a single year, and released a blockbuster concert film to boot...

Driving the news: Time’s Sam Lansky describes Swift in the person of the year cover story as “the last monoculture left in our stratified world. ”... I thought instead, I’d replace myself first with a new me. It’s harder to hit a moving target.”

To be fair, Swift’s nomination is arguably a step up from 2006, when Time declared “you” were the person of the year, as Jonah Goldberg wrote at the time...Ed Driscoll

Hunter Biden Sent Direct Monthly Payments To Joe Biden From Bank Account For Chinese Money, Comer Reveals | The Daily Caller: 

“Today, the House Oversight Committee is releasing subpoenaed bank records that show Hunter Biden’s business entity, Owasco PC, made direct monthly payments to Joe Biden. This wasn’t a payment from Hunter Biden’s personal account but an account for his corporation that received payments from China and other shady corners of the world,” Comer says in the video. The payments appear to have taken place beginning in September 2018, the bank records show.

“Payments from Hunter’s business entity to Joe Biden are now part of a pattern revealing Joe Biden knew about, participated in and benefited from his family’s influence peddling schemes.”

“What’s at Issue is the White Progressives’ Belief That They’re Helping Us” - TED BALAKER
“We committed to dismantling policing as we know it.”
That’s what then-Minneapolis City Council President Lisa Bender declared in early June of 2020...

• During an interview with CNN’s Poppy Harlow, the host pressed Bender. “To be clear, you’re not talking about reform … This is more than reform, this is dismantling.” Bender stood her ground: “I know that statement was bold and I stand by that bold statement.”

Harlow continued, “What if, in the middle of the night, my home is broken into. Who do I call?”
Bender responded with that familiar retort that substitutes an ad hominem attack for real engagement: According to Bender, Harlow’s question “comes from a place of privilege.”...
