"This is what bravery looks like, this is what leadership looks like," Gaines stated before introducing Liilii.

Liilii received a standing ovation upon taking the podium, bringing the senior to tears as she prepared to deliver her remarks. "I never expected to be blindsided ... having to compete against a male athlete," the Hawaiian student began. "When the news broke, I was stunned, as many of my teammates were. This is not what we signed up for."

Trump's Virtues Part III: The Interview

The Democrats’ Insanity Defense

Republican activists say they have to water down the reality of their opponents’ agenda in focus groups. ‘They just don’t believe it’s true. It can’t be. - Park

In the September debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, Trump said something so ludicrous that many viewers must have dismissed it out of hand. 

“She did things that nobody would ever think of,” Trump said, while rattling off a list of some of the vice president’s most radical past positions. “Now she wants to do transgender operations on illegal aliens that are in prison.”

The idea that the vice president “wants to do transgender operations on illegal aliens that are in prison” seemed so patently absurd that The New Yorker’s Susan Glasser cited it in a column posted the next morning as an example of Trump’s lunacy: 

“What the hell was he talking about?” Glasser wrote of the trans operation lines. “No one knows, which was, of course, exactly Harris’ point.”

That reaction was understandable—the idea of the operations was, as Trump himself said, a “thing nobody would ever think of.” 

The problem was that it is true...

Pointless Mike Pence - American Thinker

Pointless Mike Pence - American Thinker - Jack Cashill 

In his narrative poem The Divine Comedy, 14th-century Italian sage Dante Alighieri reserved the ninth and deepest circle of his Inferno for those scoundrels who betrayed their comrades and leaders — Brutus, Cassius, Judas Iscariot, Satan himself.
A revised MAGA edition of The Divine Comedy might justifiably find space in that circle for people like Liz Cheney, Gen. Mark Kelly, and the editorial staff of The Bulwark. 

Although many would put former vice president Mike Pence in there as well, I would not.

• I would argue for a lower circle still, a tenth circle. 

Although Dante did not say, as alleged, “The darkest places of hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis,” someone did, and it makes sense. 

After all, one can respect the traitor for taking a stand, however evil. 

• But it is hard to respect those who, in times of moral crisis, sit on their hands...

DHS slaps New York over releasing illegal immigrant involved with sex trafficking - Washington Times: 

A top Homeland Security deportation official blasted New York for refusing to cooperate with a request to hold illegal immigrants for pickup, saying the city ended up releasing an accused sex trafficker back onto the streets.

National energy association warns of higher winter heating bills

Colder weather, bad policies to blame - Jamie A. Hope

Home heating costs nationwide will be higher this winter than last, according to the National Energy Assistance Directors Association.

• The association, a trade group of officials who administer energy-focused welfare programs, blamed the spike on the expense of maintaining grids, higher costs of natural gas, and colder weather forecasts.
• Some energy analysts, though, say the crisis has another cause: government policies that are driving up costs...

We’re Keeping A List Of Everyone Who Has Called Trump A ‘Fascist’ I & I Editorial Board

You’ve probably been reading in the news lately about how Democrats have started calling Donald Trump a fascist.

They’re saying things like:

• “The stench of fascism is in the air,” and
• He wants to “replace the Bill of Rights with fascist precepts lifted verbatim from Mein Kampf,” and
• He “displays the supremacist ideology of Nazi Germany.’’
• And, “He is a fascist, for his program takes immediate and direct aim at (a sector of) the working class.’’

Oh, wait. Those statements weren’t about Trump at all.

• The first quotation was what California Gov. Pat Brown said about Barry Goldwater in 1964. 
• The second was leveled by Missouri Rep. William Clay against President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. 
• The third was what George Soros said about George W. Bush in 2003. 
• The fourth was what a leftist rag said about former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker in 2011.

The complete list of such accusations against Republicans over the past six decades would choke the internet...

So, it made us laugh when we read the headline in the New York Times that: “Harris and Democrats Lose Their Reluctance to Call Trump a Fascist.” As though this were some sort of shocking new development and not one of the most hackneyed attack lines in history...

Deleting the liberal past.

 

'Life was ripped away from her': Some people can't finish watching compelling new Trump ad about Kamala's border catastrophe * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

'Life was ripped away from her': Some people can't finish watching compelling new Trump ad about Kamala's border catastrophe * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh: 

The mother charged, 'Kamala Harris was in charge of immigration and our borders. If we had better border policies… I truly believe this all could have been prevented. … Under her – my daughter's life was ripped away from her. She had her entire life ahead of her."

In fact, Biden and Harris trashed literally all of President Donald Trump's border security plans on the first day they took office. The result has been millions of illegal aliens flooding into the United States, including large numbers of potential terrorists, known criminals and violent offenders.

Scientist who battled for COVID common sense over media and government censors wins top award

Few in the media seemed eager to attend a ceremony last week in Washington, D.C., where the prestigious American Academy of Sciences and Letters was awarding its top intellectual freedom award. - Jonathan Turley

The problem may have been the recipient: Stanford Professor Dr. Jay Bhattacharya.
Bhattacharya has spent years being vilified by the media over his dissenting views on the pandemic. 

• As one of the signatories of the 2020 Great Barrington Declaration, he was canceled, censored, and even received death threats.
• That open letter called on government officials and public health authorities to rethink the mandatory lockdowns and other extreme measures in light of past pandemics.
• All the signatories became targets of an orthodoxy enforced by an alliance of political, corporate, media, and academic groups. 
• Most were blocked on social media despite being accomplished scientists with expertise in this area...

DEI Will 'Destroy' Universities, Warns Cambridge Professor

DEI Will 'Destroy' Universities, Warns Cambridge Professor: 

The Cambridge professor, highlighting the decision by the largely pro-DEI left-wing Labour government to scrap the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act 2023, went on to warn that universities will merely be the canary in the coal mine for a broader attack on freedom of speech throughout society.

He wrote: “Will freedom of speech be ever more restricted by a system of taboos about minority groups? When lecturers are silenced, because their views are unpopular, the whole of society becomes less free; and less free still when academics can no longer pursue their traditional goal and of seeking knowledge.”
