Walt would have never allowed Disney’s
political activism

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has signed a bill passed by the Republican-majority legislature that revokes a special tax exemption and other privileges for Walt Disney World in Orlando. This was in response to the company’s current leadership and some of its employees, who have protested another bill signed by the governor that prohibits the teaching of gender issues in kindergarten through third grade. Activists and the media have mislabeled it the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, though the word “gay” appears nowhere in the legislation. Walt Disney World was given tax breaks and was extended other privileges nearly 50 years ago because lawmakers then believed it would create jobs,

When things go bad for Democrat presidents, the corporate media generally circle the wagons in two ways. We are either told no president could solve these problems, so don’t blame the Democrat, or we’re told things are double-plus good, and we’re just too stupid to see it.
Well, the truth — and we all know it — is that things are strikingly awful with His Fraudulency Joe Biden at the helm, so the media’s gaslighting campaigns are in full bloom.
Over at CNN, a far-left propaganda outlet that spreads conspiracy theories and political violence, a recent piece of “analysis” headlined:
“President Joe Biden has tried to shift blame for the spike in gasoline prices, but most voters aren’t buying his excuses,” writes Rasmussen Reports.
The cost of energy has close to doubled under His Fraudulency Joe Biden. In response, rather than actually doing something about it — like opening up America’s vast energy reserves — Biden has chosen to strangle America’s energy industry and blame everything and everyone else.
Biden has blamed the energy companies for price gouging. He’s also, laughably, blamed the energy companies for not drilling enough. He’s blamed the pandemic. He’s blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin. He’s blamed the war in Ukraine.
It’s all been lies, lies, and more lies,
74-Year-Old Golfer Opens Fire on Man Walking

Dog on Delray Beach Golf Course, Beats

A 74-year-old golfer lost his mind on Sunday when he saw a man walking his dog on Delray Beach, Florida, golf course, but he didn’t just yell at the guy. Instead, he reportedly broke out a gun and started shooting at him. Then he attacked with a club when he ran out of ammo.
Certainly, it is against the rules to walk a dog on the golf course. That goes without saying. But the golfer’s reaction is extreme, to be sure.
According to a report at WPBF TV, witnesses alleged that 74-year-old golfer Robert Levine went ballistic when he saw 64-year-old Herbert Merritt
Anthony Fauci was “surprised and disappointed” by last week’s ruling against the mask mandate for travelers issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “This is a CDC issue,” President Joe Biden’s top medical adviser told CNN. “It should not have been a court issue.”
Fauci, who objects to federalism as well as judicial review, embodies the mild-mannered arrogance of technocrats who assume their scientific expertise trumps the rule of law. Because they believe they know what is best for us, they are dismayed by any attempt to limit their influence or restrain their power.
Fauci did vaguely criticize the substance of US District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle’s decision,

The housing market’s insane, so you have to get something whenever the getting’s good.
Maybe that’s why a home in Fairfax, Virginia recently sold despite a potentially transaction-killing quirk.
As reported by NBC News, the 3,500-square-foot five-bedroom, four-bath abode was built in 1964.
Thirty-three years later, it sold for $319,000.
And on April 15th, it went for a whopping $805,000.
After the deed was done, five more cash offers followed.
Most notable about the house: It comes with someone already living in it.
A stranger, in the basement.
The “Home Details” on Zillow.com sound sufficiently fine. Sort of:
Great opportunity to own in Mantua! Large, spacious colonial on cul de sac street.
The pain at the gas pump shows no signs of abating, and the Biden administration seems to want to make it worse. The White House announced on Monday that it’s reverting back to the Obama administration’s policy of opening only 52% of Alaska’s National Petroleum Reserve for oil and gas leases. Under the Trump administration, 82% of the land was open for drilling.
The National Petroleum Reserve is an area of about 23 million acres in Alaska, which the Harding administration set aside in 1923 as an oil reserve for the U.S. Navy. It’s now under the control of the Bureau of Land Management,
Is Nancy Pelosi Establishing a Religion?

When the House of Representatives convened for a three-minute session on Monday, the proceedings opened with a written statement from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
"I hereby appoint the Honorable Andy Kim to act as Speaker pro tempore on this day," Pelosi declared.
As recorded by C-SPAN, Kim, empowered by Pelosi, then instantly announced: "The prayer will be offered by Chaplain Kibben."
The Rev. Margaret Kibben stepped to the podium. "Would you pray with me?" she asked with a smile.
"God our creator, redeemer, and sustainer, great are Your promises to us," said Kibben in words now immortalized in the Congressional Record.
Her prayer, as recorded by C-SPAN, lasted about 1 minute and 20 seconds.
Oklahoma Rep. Markwayne Mullin introduced a resolution to expunge former President Donald Trump's first impeachment on Tuesday, arguing it was "an unimaginable abuse of our Constitution."
The resolution, if passed by the House, would expunge Trump's 2019 impeachment for allegedly leveraging U.S. military aid to Ukraine for political favors, specifically investigations of the Biden family.
“President Trump was impeached over a sabotaged, perfect phone call,” Mullin said in the press release. “The hearsay of witnesses completely contradicted the plain text of the transcript.
After one-third of the horrific term of President Joe Biden is almost complete, the United States of America is facing a series of mind-boggling crises.
The Biden administration’s COVID-19 response focused on forcing Americans to wear masks and take vaccines. The President pushed mandates and lockdowns, instead of freedom. The toll on our economy, overall health and psychological well-being has been staggering.
This week, in their commitment to continue these policies, the administration refused to abandon the unnecessary and ridiculous mask mandate for public transportation and will appeal a federal judge’s sensible ruling striking down this unpopular mandate.

The writing has been on the wall for some time now as to just how bad it is likely to be for Democrats going into the 2022 fall midterm elections.
Joe Biden’s (and Kamala Harris’) approval ratings are in the toilet, and Biden is polling poorly on his handling of key issues like the economy, inflation, and illegal immigration. Further, Biden’s support among key voting blocs is cratering, and most generic Congressional ballot polls show Republicans with a distinct advantage over Democrats.
Any one of the above issues would be concerning for a political party in a crucial election year.
The search engine giant Google has rolled out a new feature that acts as an auto-suggestion for changing certain language to more politically correct terms.
According to the Daily Mail, users who type out certain words will be faced with several suggestions encouraging them to adopt language that is gender-neutral, or otherwise more politically correct. For example, “landlord” will yield suggestions such as “proprietor” or “property owner,” while “mankind” will lead to the suggestion of “humankind.” “Policeman” is now recommended to be “police officers,” while “housewife” is to be replaced with “stay-at-home spouse.”
This feature also applies to transcriptions of interviews and speeches from the past.

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) is the latest lawmaker to test positive for coronavirus. Waters announced her test results in a Wednesday statement, saying that she is not experiencing any symptoms. The California Democrat said she is now in insolation. “Today, I have received a positive test result for COVID. I am currently isolating and have no symptoms,” she said. “I am following all protocols as recommended by the Office of the Attending Physician and CDC guidance. I am grateful to be fully vaccinated and to have received two booster shots. Thankfully, I am feeling fine and recommend everyone to get vaccinated if you have not done so already.”
President Joe Biden has reignited the fire among already outraged parents after claiming their children don't belong to them 'when they’re in the classroom.''They’re all our children,' he said Wednesday, addressing educators at the 2022 Teacher of the Year ceremony hosted by the White House. 'They are not somebody's else children. They're like yours when they're in the classroom.'Biden also took aim at parents and Republican legislators who have spearheaded efforts to ban books and bar sexually explicit or overly politically correct curriculum. 'Today, there are too many politicians trying to score political points banning books, even math books,' the president said.
Following Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter last week, which was a triumphant victory in the ongoing war over free speech, the Biden Regime announced the creation of a “Disinformation Governance Board” that will be tasked with silencing anything deemed to be misinformation that’s related to homeland security. And, yes. It’s just as dystopian and creepy as it sounds.The new board will operate under the authority of the Department of Homeland security with a special focus on Russia and “irregular migration,” according to the Post Millennial.
Joe Biden is considering reneging on a campaign promise to cancel limited amounts of student debt, and is now mulling far more substantial coverage of the $1.6trillion in debt owed by 43,000 people. Biden alluded to his plan during a meeting on Monday with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, where he told Rep. Tony Cardenas, a California Democrat, that he had plans that would please the group.The president previously supported canceling up to $10,000 of debt per student, but is now said to be open to forgiving a larger - if unspecified amount.It also remains unclear exactly how many students could be affected,
President Joe Biden is banning traditional incandescent lightbulbs in a push to be more energy efficient, but critics claim the switch to LED alternatives will prove costly for poorer Americans.
The Department of Energy (DOE) adopted two new rules Tuesday that strengthen energy efficiency standards for lightbulbs and will effectively phase out the sale of traditional bulbs by next year.
However, consumer analysts allege that not only are LED bulbs more expensive, costing nearly $4 each as opposed to $1 for an incandescent bulb, but are often not stocked in stores in lower-income communities. Around 30 percent of the two billion bulbs sold in the US every year are incandescent.
Hillary Clinton on Wednesday took a swipe at Donald Trump and went on a woke, feminist rant at Madeleine Albright’s funeral.Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright died last month at the age of 84. Albright served in the Clinton Administration as the first female Secretary of State from 1997 to 2001. Hillary Clinton injected toxic politics in a eulogy at Washington National Cathedral.Clinton attacked Trump and warned ‘Fascism’ could take over the US if we don’t defend against “dictators and demagogues from the battlefields of Ukraine to the halls of our own Capitol.”WATCH:
President Joe Biden said Wednesday he continues to suffer from his childhood stutter, telling an audience he has not fully conquered it.“I didn’t really beat my stutter — still occasionally I do,” he said, recalling the struggle he experienced as a child.The president spoke about stuttering during an event at the White House celebrating the Teachers of the Year.“I stuttered badly, and when you stutter, everyone thinks you have to be stupid or totally incompetent,” he said.Biden frequently talks about his childhood stutter, usually among students and teachers when he is talking about the importance of learning.
Joe Biden is in trouble. His Democrats are collapsing at the polls based on his disastrous first term and now midterms are around the corner.
What's a failed president to do? Dole out the goodies, of course, some big ones in a desperate bid to win back younger leftist voters.
According to CBS News:
President Biden is looking at different options to forgive an unspecified but substantial amount of federal student loan debt — a move that would thrill some of his most loyal supporters and financially strapped students nationwide, but is a departure from campaign pledges to provide limited relief.
The president shared his plans during a 90-minute White House meeting Monday
House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy received a standing ovation from House Republicans during a meeting on Wednesday after he addressed leaked audio from a phone call he made days after the January 6 Capitol riot.
“Standing ovation and Kevin will be speaker,” Representative Nancy Mace (R., S.C.) told reporters after the meeting on Wednesday, according to Fox News.
Representative Jay Obernolte (R., Calif.) confirmed to Fox News that the members gave McCarthy a standing ovation.
The New York Times recently published audio from a January 10, 2021 meeting of Republican leadership in which McCarthy expressed concern
In a sign that even liberals are no longer buying what she’s selling, MSNBC bomb-thrower Joy Reid’s ratings are cratering, falling to their lowest level since her show debuted in 2020, yet another very bad omen for Democrats who are set to reap the whirlwind for the seeds of racial discord that they have spent years sowing.Despite April being a heavy news month, especially with the contentious Senate confirmation hearings of newly minted Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, a veritable bonanza for race-obsessed MSNBC pundits, “The ReidOut” struggled to attract viewers, putting up an average of a measly 1.1 million viewers in an indication that “the race lady”
President Joe Biden on Thursday asked Congress for an additional $33 billion in military and humanitarian assistance for the Ukraine, which officials say could fund the war there for the next five months. He said the previous money allocated for the Ukrainians has been spent. 'Basically we're out of money,' he said in remarks at the White House. The money includes $20.4 billion in additional security and military assistance, $8.5 billion in economic assistance, and $3 billion in humanitarian assistance.(Snip)The $33 billion request is more than double the $13 billion that Biden asked for last month and lawmakers approved. The Biden administration has sent more than $2.4 billion
According to a report in the Daily Star, a UK tabloid, some scientists are now predicting that the world will run out of food in 27 years. 27 years and 251 days, to be more precise…as of Sunday, April 24th, 2022. (Start your doomsday countdown at home!)
So, that’s it, the science is settled, apparently. We are done by 2050.
But, what if, say, 26 years from now half of us go on strict diets and limit our caloric intake…or 60% of us are by then vegan…or 10% of the projected population has been killed off by Lyme Disease/Islamic radicals/leftist economic policies?

I think that Walt Disney is spinning in his grave fast enough to generate electricity over the politicization of his creation!! And, BTW, a tax haven like Reedy Creek was never given to Universal, Busch Gardens or Sea World, so Disney has been enjoying and exploiting their special privileges for decades!!
