Just two weeks after a Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based spice company held a “Republicans are Racist” sale over Martin Luther King Jr. weekend, it is dealing with a massive loss of business and openly begging for new customers. Penzey’s Spices CEO Bill Penzey, who routinely uses his company’s email list to send anti-Republican screeds, sent a newsletter earlier this month in which he accused GOP voters of fantasizing about killing African Americans. “Remember how Republicans, going against a mountain of evidence to the contrary, once again lied and said BLM [Black Lives Matter] wasn’t a peaceful movement but instead terrorists inciting violence

Not even close enough. The Penzey family needs to fire its CEO and publicly apologize. I have never understood how ANY business can afford to take a one-sided stand and anger half its real (or potential) customer base.

The Holier Than Thou Cackle seek to deflect from their own racism by accusing everybody else. When his fellow marxists establish the Racial Equalization Boards, the spice trade will be found to have been coextensive with the slave trade and the company- if there’s anything left of it by then- will be given to a loyal marxist.

I’m always amazed when these rabid defenders of fascism feel they need to lie about all these secret conservatives who agree with them. They are all weenies who think that’ll solve their self made problems. I think Mr. Penzey needs to hold fast to his principals of hate and socialism as they take him and his company right down the drain.

Peaceful movements do not burn, rape, murder and steal, it's just definitive logic to name BLM a terrorist organization and no, many people are not fantasizing because lives are in real danger. How do you turn into a social expert by importing and selling spices? Now he looks like a dunce.

Penzey has some deep hate for Republicans, so his mission was accomplished. If this was to gain favor with blacks it won't work. Blacks don't sit at computers to order spices online so forget that group support you buffoon. If Penzey did this blunder to satisfy his soul, then he should be proud, mission accomplished don't complain after.

As CEO of a private company, he at least doesn't have a fiduciary responsibility to maximaize returns for the shareholders. What torques me are the big public-corporation CEO's that embark on social justice campaigns that result in losses.

I am sure he is well-fixed financially, but this is especially dumb. I am retired now, but in the past I would be asked to put a campaign poster in my businesse's window. I always declined, whether it was a candidate I agreed with or not. It's just common sense to not offend your customers, but some of these people on the left are so consumed with hate that they can't help themselves.

Today in Finland, lawyers for Member of Parliament Paivi Rasanen and Bishop Juhana Pohjola will make their final arguments defending the two against “hate crimes” charges for publicly expressing their Christian beliefs. While intended to suppress Christianity and criminalize the Bible, with ramifications for the entire West, the prosecution has also created opportunities to proclaim Christian theology all over the world, Rasanen told The Federalist in an exclusive interview last week. “I was happy to have the possibility to also tell the gospel—the solution to the problem of sin—in front of the court and in front of the media,” she said.

So, former congressman and convicted sex offender Anthony Weiner is making something of a comeback. No, this isn’t the springboard for a return to public life. That is forever closed, but the man needs something to do, I guess. I don’t know why he feels that way. Any man slapped with such charges would rightfully stay away…forever. Instead, Carlos Danger will be featured on a radio show with former Republican mayoral candidate and Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa. Could this be the start of Weiner’s radio career?

After we published our List #5 a few weeks ago, one of our readers, Greg Ennis, left us this simple comment: “Who the hell is left?” Thanks for your input, Greg, and unfortunately, depending on the industry, that’s an excellent question. With the technology and apparel industries, for instance, finding alternatives to the companies on our list isn’t easy. Nonetheless, it’s important to understand the companies with whom we’re doing business. And just because there’s no viable alternative for an insidiously woke monopoly or oligarchy right now doesn’t mean there won’t be other options in a year.

On February 4, a car plowed through a group of demonstrators against Covid restrictions in Winnipeg, Canada. The driver fled the scene, leaving four adult males injured. Videos taken by surveillance cameras and bystanders show the moment of impact. The white Jeep Patriot speeds up past the trail of cars and aims directly at a group of protesters. One of the victims can clearly be seen being driven over, as the Jeep’s operator indiscriminately steers into others. Thankfully, no one was killed in the incident. Winnipeg police apprehended the suspect, a 42-year-old man from Headingley, this past Sunday.

A three-year battle in Vermont is coming to a head over Proposal 5, an amendment to the state constitution that would enshrine existing Vermont abortion “liberties” to terminate pregnancies up until birth. Roe v. Wade established “viability” as the determinant of when state governments hold a “compelling” interest to protect children. The current challenge to Roe in the Supreme Court concerns a Mississippi law that would ban abortions after 15 weeks. Vermont’s Proposal 5 essentially defines fetal viability at 40 weeks (birth), ignoring both Roe and the science of human development.

It must be nice to be a Democrat in 2022. Think about it: You don’t have to be constrained by truth, reality, or the consequences of ignoring them. Isn’t postmodernism great?! Nothing – and I mean that literally – that a Democrat politician says or their clueless voters believe is rooted in objective truth. Pick a position of theirs. Any position. Jen Psaki recently made a spiteful, idiotic comment that highlights this phenomenon. The soft-on-crime approach that she scoffed at is resulting in record-breaking carjackings, murders, and retail theft.

Now, yet another unhinged professor has been caught advocating for pedophilia, this time even more brazenly. Stephen Kershnar is a professor at State University of New York at Fredonia, and a pedophilia apologist. Here’s Kershnar on video saying that an adult male having sex with a 12-year-old girl is not obviously wrong, and that calling it wrong is a “mistake.” In the same clip, he refers to pedophilic rape as “adult-child sex,” another euphemism that, just like “minor-attracted person,”

Bob Saget’s death in January was a very tragic thing, especially for someone who was still relatively young, was beloved by so many people, and who had contributed so much to the entertainment industry. But now, there are folks raising questions about the serious head trauma he suffered. His death was attributed to head trauma in an autopsy report released on Thursday, and it was assessed to be an accident, i.e. maybe he fell and then went to sleep, and then died. Now, the description of the head trauma is much more extensive than initially suggested, according to the NY Times.
