Happy Trans Day of Visibility - American Thinker

To the President who claims he is a Catholic in good standing, it’s just another day to poke his fingers in your eyes. - By Clarice Feldman

"...Yes, the White House is hosting the traditional easter egg rolling event, but it has banned all religious symbols at the event, and in a proclamation dated, “in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-four” announced that this day, March 31, is “Transgender Day of Visibility.”..
It strikes me that it is so deliberately offensive to Christians it’s puzzling.
It is to Hugh Hewitt as well, who asks:

“Jesting aside: Was the declaration of the (first?) Transgender Day of Visibility coincident with Easter Sunday an unintended coincidence or an intentional overlap by whomever thought it up and sold it to senior staff who sold it to @POTUS, and, if either intentionality for whatever reason or simple indifference to the significance of Easter, did the WH team alert @JoeBiden of the overlap? Which answers would be more revealing about the staff? Because I’m not believing that Joe thought this one up on his own. Second question: Are there other countries in the world that have so declared such a day?”

Biden is not the only Democratic official who could use some lessons in civility...

Biden working to ... something bad to another Kennedy?

The spirit that built skyscrapers will rebuild bridges | Blaze Media

The spirit that built skyscrapers will rebuild bridges | Blaze Media: 

I am absolutely sick to death of all of these stories that say things like that. Have we forgotten who we are? Have we forgotten what we’ve done?

Let me remind you of the American spirit, a spirit so potent and so vibrant that it has scaled towering mountains, mountains nobody thought they could cross.

It’s the spirit that constructed marvels of engineering. Have you ever been to the Hoover Dam? Have you seen the New York City skyline? The skyscraper was invented here for a reason. Here we are on the threshold of tomorrow, and none of us knows what is going to happen. But I'm getting the impression that we’ve been so beaten down that we believe we’re not going to make it tomorrow.

Have we forgotten who our ancestors are and what they did? If you look through our history even briefly, you will see a group of people who never take no for an answer. You will see a people who can do anything.

Scumbaggery!-----Housing Inflation Is 4X "Official" Metrics

First up: what changed? In short, the government stopped using real-world data and started using proxies to estimate the real-world data.
"The reason for this was to artificially bring down inflation numbers, providing political cover for the politicians that created the rising prices in the first place...

Happy Easter from TheBlaze: The true meaning of Easter Sunday | Blaze Media

Happy Easter from TheBlaze: The true meaning of Easter Sunday | Blaze Media: 

It should not be missed that Jesus inexplicably tied his death — the events of Easter and the Passion week — with the events preceding Jewish Passover. After all, Jesus himself was a Jew, as were his disciples, so the Jewish context was the best category available to communicate his teachings.

But there was a deeper meaning at hand. Indeed, the events of the Passion week should be examined in light of the narrative storyline of the Bible.

Poll asks voters to list Biden's top accomplishment. The No. 1 result is 'nothing' but good news for Trump. | Blaze Media: 

But the unique finding of the poll is what voters believe Biden's top accomplishment is: nothing. That's right. When pollsters asked respondents to name the Biden administration's top accomplishment, 38% of them couldn't name a single thing or they said that Biden's presidency has been a net-negative for the country.

"...A group of about 30 homeless activists has filed complaints with the city about the planters which they call "hostile architecture." 

• So residents and business owners started getting warnings from the city saying they had 30 days to remove the planters or they would be fined.
• But that's not the end of this story. The Department of Public Works has announced that it will soon be requiring anyone who has or wants to have a planter out on the sidewalk to get a permit for it...

Philadelphia Fed Admits US Payrolls Overstated By At Least 800,000 | ZeroHedge

The first red flags emerged in the summer of 2022: that's when the Biden Labor Department started well and truly rigging the labor market data.
"...Regular readers may recall that it was back in July of 2022, when we first warned that something had "snapped" in the labor market: that's when a striking discrepancy emerged between the number of US Payrolls...and the number of actual Employed Workers (as measured by the BLS' far more accurate Household Survey) . 

As we showed then, after the two series had tracked each other tick for tick for years, a wide gap opened in March 2022 which quickly grew to 1.5 million jobs in just 3 months...

... one which has since exploded to a whopping 5 million "employed workers" that apparently do not exist.

How to Repair the Key Bridge Without Breaking the Bank

Fortunately, it’s possible for Washington to help Maryland rebuild the bridge without driving the nation deeper into debt. - David Ditch / @davidaditch 

• First, all officials must be clear that the cost of rebuilding should mostly or entirely fall on the owners and operators of the ship...
• Second, there’s no need for Congress to authorize new funding to begin the process of clearing the channel and rebuilding the bridge. In 2021, Congress passed a five-year, $1.2 trillion infrastructure package, the largest portion of which is devoted to roads and bridges. 

Rather than simply adding to the long-term debt, Congress has many options to repurpose funds from the 2021 bill, including:

• Canceling the administration’s $3.1 billion grant to California’s wildly dysfunctional high-speed rail project.
• Reducing federal spending on programs for low-priority, local-only infrastructure such as hiking trails, bike paths, and sidewalks.
• Pulling forward highway and bridge funds from allocations for 2025 and 2026 so they are available for the project starting in 2024...

How many students know this? Heck, how many teachers know this?!!

 

Florida Sheriff Issues Awesome Warning to Squatters After DeSantis Announces Crackdown on the Insanity

As "squatting" continues to spread across the country, including by illegal aliens, and squatters have become savvier about their "rights" — which should be zero — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday announced, "We are ending it,"

• If you had been told, say 20 years ago, that if you left your home unoccupied for a period (times vary in different states) and new "tenants" moved in on their own (in New York, for just 30 consecutive days), those "tenants" would acquire legal rights to stay put, for at least the time being, even after you proved ownership, what would you have thought?...

"Arctic sea ice continues to grow weeks after it typically starts melting. 

• Extent is higher than 1996, and is one of the highest of the 21st century. 
• Instead of reporting on this, the press and academia continue to lie about "global boiling" and an imminent ice-free Arctic.

They WILL punish you for even thinking there was fraud!

 

Illegal migrants who rushed National Guard soldiers in El Paso learn America is a land of laws | Blaze Media

Illegal migrants who rushed National Guard soldiers in El Paso learn America is a land of laws | Blaze Media: 

After the incident, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) vowed "to arrest every illegal immigrant involved." Texas authorities are now making good on that promise. According to the New York Post, Texas authorities have arrested more than 70 migrants allegedly involved in the incident. They face misdemeanor rioting charges. Sources who spoke to the outlet, moreover, said that Texas authorities have identified more than 200 other migrants they believe were involved in the incident, but federal immigration authorities are not being cooperative. "These people were willing to assault military," a National Guard source told the Post. "They were willing to assault law enforcement. They have complete disregard for our laws."

'Equity-Based Algebra' Is as Bad as You Imagine It to Be

The CMF is a series of policy and curriculum "suggestions" designed to bring "equity" to the math scores of minority students. - RICK MORAN

"...Julia Steinberg has listed a few in The Free Press.

• Most students won’t learn algebra until high school. In the past, when that was expected of middle schoolers, the CMF tells us, “success for many students was undermined.”
• This means calculus will mostly be verboten because students can’t take calculus “unless they have taken a high school algebra course or Mathematics I in middle school.”
• “Detracking” (ending advanced courses) will be the law of the land until high school; students will be urged to “take the same rich mathematics courses in kindergarten through eighth grade.”
• Also, "letter grades will be discouraged in favor of 'standards-based assessments.'" It's not very clear what "standards-based assessments" are, but it sure sounds academic and harmless, right?
