Another Reckoning for a Bad Idea?
5 replies
No bad idea ever dies. That is the mournful lesson we are being taught daily by the partisans of so-called “critical race theory,” the disciples of “equity,” and the shock troops of Antifa and Black Lives Matter. There are some local differences, (Snip) but to a large extent the present radicalisms are a reprise of the radicalisms of the 1960s, which in turn were recapitulations of the radicalisms of the French Revolution filtered through the argot of Marxism.(snip) In its more radical versions, multiculturalism explicitly denies the ideal of the United States as an integrated society in which peoples of different races, creeds, and ethnic backgrounds can live
There is a confluence of events that need to be taken in their totality in order to contextualize the mounting desperation amid Democrats.
♦ (1) Democrats lost district seats in the 2020 U.S. census. Redistricting is going to hurt them in 2022.
♦ (2) Democrats massively exploited and cheated using mail-in ballots in the 2020 election, and they still lost House seats because the scale of MAGA turnout was overwhelming. This reality is a very visible dark cloud heading their way. They know it.
♦ (3) Ongoing or initiated forensic ballot audits in any of the key “ballot mule” regions will expose their 2020 corruption [Maricopa County (AZ), Fulton County

On July 27, gymnast Jordan Chiles will be competing for Team USA in the Olympic Team Finals in Tokyo.
(snip)
In less than eight hours, Jordan’s mother, Gina Chili, must report to the US Prison Office to begin her one-year and one-day sentence for wire fraud.
Gina Chili’s agreed to the ruling, according to a previously unreported letter detailing the agreement filed with the court as part of a judicial transaction in the US District Court for Oregon. Chile also has to pay more than $ 1.2 million in damages, according to court documents.
According to court documents, Chile ran Vision Property Management LLC, a commercial real estate management business.
Hey y’all! Butter my buns and call me a biscuit… Ms. Harris is worried there ain’t a Kinko’s or OfficeMax in our rural places for us to get them high-tech photographic copies of our ID’s for mail-in ballots ‘n stuff.
Apparently, one of Ms. Harris staff people done visited yonder flyover country once, and now gives ‘heels up‘ advice on what we the rubes ain’t got access to for the new electionin’ rules.
Golly, mamma always said once we got the electricity, we were gonna need to start learnin’ ourselves of these techno thingamagigs. It’s lookin’ like mamma was right again.
Well, bless her heart for caring ‘n stuff.
A federal Washington D.C. judge faulted a district jail on Thursday for failing to provide evidence to a defendant who was arrested for allegedly being involved in the Jan. 6 Capitol breach and has been held there for months.
Jorden Mink, the defendant in the case, was indicted (pdf) on several federal charges, including destruction of government property and theft. Mink, who has pleaded not guilty, has been held in jail since January. Officials have alleged Mink used a baseball bat to smash windows at the Capitol and passed furniture through the smashed windows to the crowd outside.

New evidence indicates that more than 10,300 illegal votes were cast in Georgia in the November 2020 general election — a number that will continue to rise over the next several months, potentially exceeding the 12,670 votes that separated Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
While this evidence does not change the fact that Joe Biden is our president, all Americans who genuinely care about free and fair elections and the disenfranchisement of voters should demand both transparency and solutions to prevent a repeat in future elections. This evidence also vindicates former President Trump and his legal team for the related public (and private) comments and legal arguments made in challenging the
The TLC Series “1,000 Pound Sisters” has become a sneaky success, ballooning to a number 1 cable show among women between the ages 25-54 in March, a key demographic, while the second season averaged 1.5 million views.
The two-season reality TV series (Snip) follows sisters Amy and Tammy Slaton, who run a popular YouTube channel from their home in western Kentucky.
Averaging around 1,000 pounds between them at the show’s launch — before Amy began to lose the weight — the two jolly and morbidly obese women in flyover country are easy to mock and ripe for reality television, as they allow crews chronicle their glutenous lives for a nationwide audience.

On July 4, which most Americans still regard as Independence Day—a day to celebrate, ever since the very first fireworks display to mark America’s birth in 1777—the Public Broadcasting System played to a small sliver of 13 percent of the country who are black.

One America News host Natalie Harp does a deep dive into the election influence operation carried out by Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. After outlining the background information, including the amount of money Zuckerberg spent on the 2020 election and who he gave it to, Ms. Harp interviews NY Rep Claudia Tenney (NY, CD-22).
As Harp and Tenney outline [Rumble Link] the money from Mark Zuckerberg was specifically designed to influence the 2020 election and the process of using mail-in ballots. The money from Zuckerberg and others was used to pay for “ballot mules” and a myriad of corrupt election actions. WATCH:
Most police departments — including Washington, D.C.’s Metropolitan Police — are required to release an officer’s name within days of a fatal shooting. Not the U.S. Capitol Police, which is controlled by Congress and answers only to Congress. It can keep the public in the dark about the identity and investigation of an officer involved in a shooting indefinitely.
Which is what happened with the Jan. 6 shooting of Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed protester in the U.S. Capitol riot who was fatally wounded by a plainclothes police lieutenant as she attempted to breach a set of doors inside the building.For the past six months, (Snip) the Capitol Police has stiff-armed
Last week, America’s Frontline Doctors (AFLDS) came to speak in Kansas City, Missouri. AFLDS founder Dr. Simone Gold brought her message that COVID-19 is nothing to fear and that there are treatments available. At the start of the pandemic, she was fired after speaking out in support of anti-malaria medication hydroxychloroquine (HCQ).(Snip)Now, recent studies are confirming that “Low-dose hydroxychloroquine combined with zinc and azithromycin was an effective therapeutic approach against COVID-19.” (Snip) The Epoch Times interviewed Sarah Abshner, a registered nurse who worked in the field for 8 years but quit this spring and decided to volunteer with AFLDS after what she witnessed.
The Lego Insurrection

For $269.99, you can buy a LEGO Architecture 21030 United States Capitol Building Kit (1032 Pieces) at Amazon. I do not advise doing so because buying the kit may invite a visit from the FBI (Fascist Bureau of Intimidation).

The Hill reported, "The FBI seized a fully constructed Lego set of the U.S. Capitol from the home of an alleged insurrectionist.

"According to the court filing dated July 2, law enforcement recovered clothing and other items from Morss’s home that match what he carried on Jan. 6.(Snip)
"In addition, 'law enforcement also recovered a fully constructed U.S. Capitol Lego set,’ (Snip)

As the Biden administration peddles its plan to send door-knocking missionaries across America to spread 'vaccine awareness' (and keep track of who's vaccinated and who's not), White House-coordinated FEMA "surge teams" are being assembled to reinforce local efforts on the ground.In preparation for the coming campaign, Lake County, Illinois has published 'Helpful Hints' for volunteers taking part in their "Community Health Ambassador Outreach Door Knocking Project to Increase COVID Vaccine Acceptance."
After a year of lockdown, museums, libraries and bookstores across America are reopening. This cultural reawakening’s beginning coincided with both the Juneteenth holiday and the one-year anniversary of the one of the largest protests in American history against racial injustice. (snip) I want to unmask the lie that evolution denial is about religion and recognize that at its core, it is a form of white supremacy that perpetuates segregation and violence against Black bodies. Under the guise of “religious freedom,” the legalistic wing of creationists loudly insists that their point of view deserves equal time in the classroom.
Vice President Kamala Harris quipped that she will have to stop agreeing to take on more responsibilities from the president amid criticism over her handling of the southern border crisis and claims her office is plagued by fighting. About 19 minutes into the 20-minute interview with BET that aired Friday, broadcaster Soledad O'Brien rattled off Harris' major undertakings.
'Immigration, increasing broadband access, black maternal mortality, racial inequality, women in the workforce, infrastructure. We just talked about voting rights. That seems like a lot for one person,' O'Brien said to Harris.(Snip) Then she jokingly said, 'Yeah, maybe I don't say "no" enough,' and then laughed.
The U.S. Capitol Police will begin fielding military surveillance equipment as part of sweeping security upgrades as the police force pivots towards becoming “an intelligence-based protective agency” following the Jan. 6 attack. Defense Secretary Loyd Austin recently approved the Capitol Police’s request for eight Persistent Surveillance Systems Ground-Medium (PSSG-M) units. The system provides high-definition surveillance video and is enabled with night vision. The system does not include facial recognition capabilities, according to the Pentagon.(Snip)In a wartime application, the persistent surveillance units were mounted on tethered blimps. The data could be stored, combined with sensor data from other platforms, and later referenced or rewound
My friend Mark, 36, is a “catch” by many New York City standards. He’s good-looking, highly educated, and a talented photographer. He’s also progressive and participates in protests and gives to left-leaning causes. And Mark is looking for love. He wants to get married and have kids.
In a liberal city like New York, swimming with single women wishing they weren’t, one could assume Mark wouldn’t have a problem finding a mate. And while he dates and recently had a couple of short-lived relationships, Mark remains single. He’s trying to understand why.

I have firmly and consistently condemned the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot from day one and I find the event extremely disturbing. However, I cannot help but notice that the Left’s response to the Capitol riot, the outrage over Marxist critical race theory in schools, the concerns about election integrity, and many other issues is only likely to exacerbate the tensions that inspired some Trump supporters to act like antifa and launch a violent attack against the very constitutional system they claim to defend.

Increasingly, Americans are trusting the media sources less and less that they used to rely on unquestionably to keep them informed but that is the fault of those same media outlets, not the people who distrust them.Americans, and especially conservatives, already had their doubts about the veracity of many in the “mainstream media” after eight years of sycophantic treatment of Barack Obama. But after four years of Donald Trump, a wide majority of Americans now see the media for what it is: A dishonest gaggle of partisan Democrats who serve as that party’s propaganda wing.

request for 2020 election data 32 replies
The administration of Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf of Pennsylvania has ordered counties not to comply with a Republican state senator’s request for voting data to be used in an audit of the 2020 election. The Pennsylvania Department of State said in a two-page directive that the request by state Sen. Doug Mastriano of Franklin County, an ally of former President Donald Trump, “jeopardizes the security and integrity” of the counties’ voting systems. " Such access by third parties undermines chain of custody requirements and strict access limitations necessary to prevent both intentional and inadvertent tampering with electronic voting systems,” the department said.
Crowds cheered as workers removed a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee in Charlottesville, Virginia on Saturday morning following a contentious four year legal battle. The 26-foot tall bronze monument - which has stood in the city's Emancipation Park since 1924 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 - was hoisted off it base with a crane shortly after 8am. It will now be placed in storage. A separate statue of Confederate General Thomas 'Stonewall' Jackson will also be removed in Charlottesville on Saturday afternoon. Both Lee and Jackson fought against the abolition of slavery in the US Civil War.
Darryl Cooper, aka MartyrMade, is a researcher, writer, and podcaster who has put together one of the most brilliant Twitter threads you will ever read. Over the course of 35 tweets, he examines fact after fact from the last five years to explain why conservatives – the people who used to believe in our government, in law enforcement, in the election process – have become cynical, disillusioned, and prone to accepting conspiracy theories to explain the manifest breakdowns in the American system. It’s a brilliant analysis
