The Washington Post faced backlash on Tuesday for what many saw as a bizarre job posting on Twitter. The Washington Post PR team posted a link to a job listing site to advertise for a reporter in Texas to track and document conservative culture. "Job posting: The Washington Post is looking for an enterprising reporter based in Texas to document life in red state America and develop a new beat mapping the culture, public policies and politics in a region shaped by conservative ideology," the Washington Post PR tweeted. Conservatives called out the post for appearing to treat Texas as a different country for its conservative lean. "Is this a joke?" opinion

Comments:

This reminds me of the incident in the 1980s when a reporter wrote that evangelicals were poor, uneducated, and easy to command. These people need a staff of anthropologists, not "reporters," to explain America to them. Or hire Selena Zito as a consultant.

MEMO to the Post: It's not just Texas, but most of America is conservative....... Nixon called it the silent majority and is sometimes called flyover country. This is why libs are so out of touch with America. They don't even know what is going on in their own country.

I am just sooooooo offended by this, now residing in Texas. What's the issue? Yes, WaPo is insulated, an inside-the-beltway denizon. Apparently it recognizes a blind spot when it comes to "flyover country", and vast Texas is Exhibit A. People squawk about balance, and then squawk when anyone even tries to bring balance. If it's just another liberal activist, Texas has them in spades, writing for several major dailies in Houston, Dallas, and Austin. People here are sincere and secure in their politics. What difference will WaPo's scribblings make?

Maybe the liberal media should follow the wisdom of President Trump. It’s not Republican or Democrat or Independent, it’s COMMON sense Americans that want their country back and they’re everywhere. Simple common sense which few liberals understand.

The way they treat the "fly over country" is the same way they treated the South.

Have you ever wondered why the corruption in the CDC hasn’t been exposed by whistleblowers? In response to my latest whistleblower request, I received the following message from a doctor which I wanted to share with you: I have had some contact with people who would fit your search - however, it appears they are unwilling to share information because of the danger of offering the information. We have a client whose daughter had worked for the CDC but refused to sign an agreement to withhold information. She left her job and fled to an undisclosed location in .

Stunning: McCullough On Reverse Transcription 16 replies

We wrote previously about the Swedish study (University of Malmo) that concluded that Pfizer’s mRNA injections do, in fact, alter human DNA—reverse transcription. (Snip) However, here’s a video embedded in a tweet that features Dr. Peter McCullough discussing the implications. The video is only two minutes long, but it’s couched in readily understandable language. And it is stunning in its implications. What could be very interesting about this is that it seems these results are caused by the injections, rather than the virus itself. These are criminals we’re faced with:

Tucker Carlson opened his show on Monday night with the story of the mass lockdown in Shanghai, with more than 24 million people turned into starving prisoners in their homes, as the government adds in the singular cruelty of slaughtering their pets. This is ostensibly in the name of a “Zero COVID” policy, but that’s nonsense. The real goal is to bring the citizens of Shanghai to heel lest they start to pose a threat to Xi Jinping’s and the Party’s dominance. We’ve learned a lot about COVID since China released it to the world in 2019. It’s most dangerous to the very elderly and those with comorbidities.

In an effort to “honestly and respectfully” express how he feels about what is going on with the Disney company’s management, one dad’s hand-made T-shirt caused quite a stir at “the happiest place on earth.” (Snip) On the back, Geffers wrote “Hello Boys and Girls, Ladies and Gentlemen.” On the front, he wrote, “Walt Not Woke.” While he wasn’t sure how people were going to respond, Geffers said he needed to do something to express how he felt about what was going on at “the happiest place on earth.” On the first day, Geffers and the rest of his entourage went to Disney’s Magic Kingdom.

There has been some good news on the legislative front in the past week. But unfortunately, there are still a number of bills and regulatory policies pending that could change the very nature of a pandemic response worldwide. Policy that would allow public health to easily gain control of government during a bio-threat emergency. Policy that might allow public health to be weaponized for other purposes. What happens when emergency powers are written so that they can be granted for a severe flu season? Could we expect lock downs, masks, mandatory vaccination, censorship, propaganda and social distancing as seasonal events? What happens when there is civil unrest and these measures

Science is in its worst state since the burning of Giordano Bruno (1600) and the trial and conviction of Galileo (1633). The wounds it has suffered are largely self-inflicted. Science advances by questioning the current state of knowledge and by attempting to fill the gaps identified by examination of the germane data pertinent to the discipline. Any attempt to stifle vigorous—even if heated—debate is an assault on science. Over the past three decades dissent from what some consider orthodox scientific theories has been ridiculed rather than refuted.

Last week I learned from a neighbor that Donald Trump deliberately allowed the Biden-Harris ticket to win the 2020 election so they could destroy the Democrats with stupid policies. I also learned that only a biologist can define a woman from the now confirmed nominee for a not-yet-vacant seat on the Supreme Court who was selected by President Biden because she was a Black woman. (Maybe he had a biologist on his staff to help him decide this.) Speaking of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, I remembered that once again Democrats, including Biden, have taken credit for minority appointments
Alabama Passes Bill Banning Sex-Change

The Alabama Legislature passed a bill Thursday criminalizing sex-change treatments for children, including puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries. If signed by Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey, a Republican, the bill would treat the castration of children and other sex-change treatments as Class C felonies. Such felonies carry a penalty of up to 10 years in prison for medical practitioners, Politico reported. The legislation would ban medical treatments done for the purpose of changing a child’s appearance or affirming his or her gender identity, including drugs that halt healthy puberty; cross-sex hormones; surgical sterilizations such as castration, vasectomies, and hysterectomies; cosmetic genital reconstruction surgeries; and removal of healthy body parts.

Viktor Orbán has crushed the Left, again. (Snip) During my time as a visiting fellow at the Danube Institute, a Hungarian think tank, I had the opportunity to interact with a number of Hungarian political leaders including the prime minister, and to discover what is certainly the world’s most important and most controversial experiment in Christian Democracy. Simply put, Orbán offers the most prominent example in the world of a conservative politician who has unapologetically and effectively used the state for right-wing ends, something that the American Right has been almost wholly ineffective at accomplishing, and is often unsure it even wants to try.

A retired intelligence officer says a U.S. spy agency asked for his help in fall 2020 to try to acquire a copy of the Hunter Biden laptop contents ahead of the presidential election. Retired Army Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer's account to Just the News was confirmed by three other people who were approached by Shaffer or the agency or were involved in the approach. They said the agency's interest was to analyze the hard drive contents for any evidence or patterns of how foreign adversaries were seeking to compromise prominent Americans or their families.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis sent the LBGT community and the woke corporations into a frenzy when he championed (and signed into law) an anti-groomer bill that prevents school teachers from grooming 5 year old children about deviant sex practices. (Snip--video) The Disney Company believes that grooming your kids is the hill that it wants to die on — which should tell you everything you need to know about the people running Disney these days. No sane corporation would put out a statement such as this one unless it wanted to be recognized as a pro-pedophile organization.

The Biden administration on Thursday unveiled hundreds of strategies across several federal agencies aimed at addressing what it says is racial and gender inequity in the federal government. A senior administration official said the initiative is the first major assessment of how government policies have allowed “inequality to fester,” including ways they said the government has blocked underserved communities from government services. “This is about getting under the hood in every agency,” the official said. The plan outlines more than 300 different strategies and commitments by more than 90 federal agencies, including the Justice, Defense, Energy and Labor departments. For example, the Justice Department will offer more language-accessible programs

The Russian people know little about Putin’s war on Ukraine because Putin has blocked their access to the truth, substituting propaganda and lies. Years ago, pundits assumed the internet would open a new era of democracy, giving everyone access to the truth. But dictators like Putin and demagogues like Trump have demonstrated how naive that assumption was. At least the US responded to Trump’s lies. Trump had 88 million Twitter followers before Twitter took him off its platform – just two days after the attack on the Capitol, which he provoked, in part, with his tweets. (Trump’s social media accounts were also suspended on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitch and TikTok

A trusted source exclusively released the video below to The Gateway Pundit.

Both men are facing felony charges for “Obstruction of an Official Proceeding” on January 6th. This new video will indisputably exonerate Brady Knowlton, Patrick Montgomery and all the rally-goers seen entering these doors by any reasonable jury or fair judge.

Laurel, Miss.—An umpire is recovering Monday after she was punched in the face following a softball game. Moments after that confrontation, a Laurel mother was arrested and charged with simple assault. Saturday night. Kristie Moore says she was filling in, calling a 12-year-old softball game after one of her umpires got sick. She’s been calling games for 10 years. One of the moms was allegedly cursing so badly during the game that she was asked her to leave. Eventually the coach made the mom leave, but instead of going home, Kiara Thomas allegedly waited for Moore after the game.(Snip) Moore says parents are out of control

Tony Dungy, the first black coach ever to win a Super Bowl, might have escaped notice this week had he merely supported Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s “Responsible Fatherhood Initiative.” His real sin was to explain why. Dungy, a Christian father or eleven, recounted a conversation he had years back with the Rev. Abe Brown about Brown’s prison ministry. At Brown’s request, Dungy accompanied him to prison. Expecting to find hardened criminals, Dungy found instead “19- and 20- and 21-year-old kids who looked like my boys.” When Dungy asked what accounted for the young men’s incarceration, Brown told him, “(snip) Ninety-five percent of these boys did not grow up with their dad.”

President Joe Biden’s latest speech, it appears, was one for the birds. At least it seemed that way, as the somewhat hapless commander-in-chief gave what was meant to be a rousing speech and pep rally in Iowa on Tuesday. It was difficult to miss what appeared to be the projectile of avian fecal matter that scored a direct hit on the president’s left lapel. Although, after much mockery, the White House has given clarification on the supposed flying mystery substance that many aren’t buying.
