Culture Change Incoming - by Michael Smith
The 2024 election was more about culture than politics. - Michael SmithI was remembering Andrew Breitbart and that he famously said politics is downstream from culture.
That is why I think most people misread the 2024 election...I didn’t understand this election was far less political and far more cultural than I anticipated...
The fight is not over.

- Since history can only be understood through the rearview mirror, it seems clear that people voted based on their approval or disapproval of the cultural changes that began to be forced on American people since Obama assumed the Presidency in 2009...
- We just lived through four years of an administration trying out every bad idea from Orwell’s 1984, Huxley’s Brave New World, Rand’s Atlas Shrugged, Golding’s Lord of the Flies, and Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, followed by a campaign season where one party combined Orwell’s Ministry of Truth with Goebbels’ theories of propaganda.
- More than rejecting a political party, enough people recognized they had been lied to about returning to normal and that there were powerful forces that were looking to create a new normal.
The fight is not over.
It can revert as quickly as it was defeated...

Democrat legend attacks Jon Stewart of 'The Daily Show' for lying to Democrats | Blaze Media:
If running on a platform that idolizes frivolous abortion, taxpayer-funded transgender surgeries for illegal immigrant inmates, the mutilation of children, DEI, and open borders isn’t considered “woke,” then most Americans don’t know what is.
Regardless, Bill Maher and Jon Stewart have apparently claimed that Kamala Harris did not run a “woke” campaign — and James Carville isn’t having it.
Tragic Ashli Babbitt and the buried Jan. 6 truth
So now we know that the cop who fatally shot unarmed Donald Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt, 36, during the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot was rewarded with a promotion and a $36,000 bonus. - Miranda Devine
- There were no ill consequences for his rash actions that day. Instead, Capt. Michael Byrd, 56, was held up as a hero of democracy, despite the fact that he had a lengthy disciplinary record that includes leaving his loaded handgun in a public bathroom in the Capitol Visitor Center, “improperly” firing his gun at a car near his home while off duty and abusing a Maryland cop who tried to stop him...

As a teacher for 26 years, I’ve seen how we dumbed down education — and how kids suffer
'Vegetative education' - Jeremy Adams "...most precise description of education in post-COVID America: vegetative education.
As he writes, “Teachers in past decades have been faced with two choices: educating students with challenging material and frequent grading or engaging them with fun projects and participation grades.”...

- But unless we acknowledge the hollowness of conventional classroom instruction, it won’t make a bit of difference.
- Here’s the dead giveaway: Our students suffer from a pathology of low expectations for themselves and especially for their teachers.
- Many of the best and most experienced teachers I know tell me they have noticed something peculiar about their new students: They ask questions that reveal an academic ecosystem brimming with mediocrity: "Are we doing anything today?...
This crooked, corporate-payback must end!-----General Motors, Bedrock want Michigan taxpayers to foot $250M for RenCen redevelopment
Two weeks after firing 1,000 employees, General Motors wants Michigan taxpayers to pay $250 million to tear down and renovate the Renaissance Center - Scott
- In a Nov. 25 news conference, House Speaker-elect Matt Hall, R-Richland, said the proposal was insulting. “How insulting is it to the taxpayers that these guys say ‘We’re leaving Detroit and we want you guys to pay to tear down the building on our way out?’”
- Rep. Dylan Wegela, D-Garden City, also rejected the proposed handout supported by Bedrock, owned by billionaire Dan Gilbert. “Dan Gilbert has a net worth of $25b. “GM is making record profits. Yet they still have the nerve to ask for a $250 Million handout.”...

- “I have never felt so scared in this neighborhood the way I feel now,” one of the carjacking victims told The Post this week.

Report confirms Biden-Harris administration DID target Christians * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh
Report confirms Biden-Harris administration DID target Christians * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
If it seemed like a lot of the various "enforcement" actions by the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration put a bull's-eye on Christians, it was because they did.
A report from Fox News explains how an assessment by the American Principles Project showed that "nearly 70% of enforcement actions executed by" the Biden-Harris Education Department "targeted faith-based and career schools."
Using Chemistry, New Study Pokes Holes In The CO2-Induced Climate Catastrophe - Climate Change Dispatch
According to a new study, the notion that we can and must reduce atmospheric CO2 to avoid climate catastrophe (e.g., runaway global warming or ocean acidification) does not withstand probing academic scrutiny. - Kenneth RichardCarbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a mitigation strategy proposing to sequester CO2 underground to reduce emissions to “net zero” by 2050.
- The practice [of CCS] is poised to cost tens of trillions of dollars over the coming decades...
- But can CCS actually do what is intended and reduce atmospheric CO2 concentrations?
- Chemistry says no, CCS “will not reduce the atmospheric concentration of CO2 at all.” From the study:
The Fonz Jumps Another Shark: Henry Winkler Says Books Are Not Our Enemy
...there is not an actual book ban in this country. - Amy Curtis
Some school districts have decided to curate books and the curriculum -- which is what every school district does.
Some school districts have decided to curate books and the curriculum -- which is what every school district does.
So it's a tired, ridiculous argument that books are being 'banned' just because they're not on every shelf or every classroom.Award. Winning.
Egads.

Mexico's president talks up her nation's efforts to fight illegal immigration * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh
Mexico's president talks up her nation's efforts to fight illegal immigration * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
Mexico already has worked to eliminate the caravans of thousands of illegal aliens from around the world approaching, and breaching, America's southern border. And it has worked on eliminating the flow of illegal drugs into the U.S.
So claims Claudia Sheinbaum, the president of Mexico, who was reacting to President-elect Donald Trump's promise of 25% tariffs should those migrant and drug problems continue as they have under Joe Biden and his border czar, Kamala Harris.
A report from Newsweek documents Sheinbaum's comments, including claims that those migrant caravans no longer are reaching the U.S. border.
Isn’t it amazing? As soon as Trump was elected and not officially the new president, both Canada and Mexico have suddenly seen the light and wish to stop illegal immigration into America.
Why? - Trump’s plan of tariffs on their goods. - Dave Agema
- Trump understands economics and how to leverage it to accomplish his goals.
Both our northern and southern borders are inundating America with illegals of which many are terrorists. Excellent move by Trump-something Biden never understood.
This is the difference between a politician and a businessman...
Lunch video-----Avocados, tequila and more iconic Mexican products are jeopardized by Trump...
"Mexicans are worried that threats by Donald Trump to impose 25% tariffs could affect a wide range of iconic Mexican products and threaten entire regional economies. Avocado producers say tariffs will raise the price of their fruit, while Mexico’s Economy Secretary said U.S. consumers might have to pay $3,000 more per pickup truck.

RUNNING SCARED: Jack Smith steps down before Trump has a chance to FIRE him | Blaze Media:
Jack Smith’s cases investigating Trump’s attempts to challenge the 2020 election are falling apart — and now he’s stepping down from his position as special counsel before the president-elect takes office.
Mark Levin of “LevinTV” isn’t surprised.
“You know why? It’s simple. He’s an unconstitutional prosecutor. Donald Trump’s going to fire his ass. All the cases collapse, based on Department of Justice memos,” Levin says. “They collapse, these cases should never have been brought, the case in Florida was rightly thrown out.”
“That’s why they were in a rush to get these cases prosecuted. To get him in prison before the election, which also violated numerous Department of Justice rules,” he continues.
