Fort Worth, Texas, is the county seat in Tarrant County. Around 35% of its population is Hispanic. (snip) on Saturday, any pro-Democrat momentum seemed to have stopped dead when a conservative parents’ organization was able to see all its candidates win in four suburban board elections.
Most people have one thing they know with absolute certainty and you cannot lie to them about that one thing. (snip) With kids at home watching their classes on computer screens, parents finally saw what was really going on in their kids’ classrooms. What parents discovered was that their children were being told that their “gender identity” has nothing to do with biological reality

Fear is spreading across Eastern Europe that Russian president Vladimir Putin will extend his invasion of Ukraine into Moldova. Like Ukraine, Moldova is a previous state of the Soviet Union that is not a part of NATO. Moldova and Ukraine share a border with Transnistria, Moldovan territory in which Russian-backed separatists hold power. The international community does not consider Transnistria an independent state.
On April 25, explosions were reported in Transnistria. Transinstrian officials in the capital of Tiraspol claimed that the attack was directed at the state's security headquarters and radio stations used to broadcast Russian transmissions.

It has been odd and alarming watching the powers-that-be relentlessly escalate the proxy war our government is waging against Russia. (snip) But there may be method to this madness. (snip) A serious conflict would provide the Left an opportunity to seize complete domestic control, to cement its power — perhaps permanently. For certain is that locking horns with Russia would be used to further curtail civil liberties.
We know this because major conflicts always are thus used. Abraham Lincoln arrested opposition journalists and publishers during the War Between the States. WWI saw the passage of the Espionage Act of 1917 and the Sedition Act of 1918

After the fourth email of Putin’s hand flapping crossed my desk, I gave in and started my research. Those dozens of dust-binned claims of Putin being on death’s door might even have some credibility. (snip) Let’s get one thing clear from the beginning. That hand flapping tremor in the video just doesn’t look like Parkinson’s. (snip) Flapping tremors are called “asterixis” and are most commonly a result of alcoholism and liver failure. The tremor is not what should bother us. Rather, the metabolic consequences of lifetime vodka consumption should concern us. That gradually causes liver failure and increased blood ammonia levels.

Twenty twenty was a bitter defeat for many of us, and the charges of fraud were not without merit. (snip) For all the illegality, though, I think 2020 is going to be seen as a Pyrrhic victory, with so many of the Democrats' bad ideas catching up with them and as the black and Hispanic base sours on Biden and his party. A wipe-out in 2022 will surprise no one.
To a certain extent, we have been here before. Voters back in the 1980s walked away from the Democrats heralding the Reagan Revolution, and many never looked back. But a lot of party leaders understood their problems

These are desperate times for the Democrats in Washington, the poll and the mood of the nation suggest that they will receive an emphatic shellacking during the mid-terms in November.
The Democrats just have around six months to act. Desperate times demand desperate measures, so the Democrats are resorting to sneaky tactics such as ‘leaks’ hoping it will benefit them.
They leaked messages between President Trump's chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and key GOP figures and Trump aides to portray Republicans as insurrectionists and fascists looking to subvert the course of democracy.
The New York Times leaked a conversation allegedly between House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Rep. Liz Cheney

The past few weeks have been extremely troubling for those who value democracy, freedom, human rights, and civil liberties within the United States of America. (snip) Recently, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas testified that a Disinformation Governance Board has been set up to counter disinformation (snip) Will they be able to prosecute people for spreading ‘disinformation? Will this board be restricted to focus on social media only as its tool, or will the powers also apply to ‘right-wing media’ directly? We do not know. However, that is not the only concern, there have been other assaults on democratic values.

Even before the Ukraine war began, people were speculating that something was physically wrong with Putin. He looked puffy, not as if he’d gained weight, but as if he were reacting to medicines. Speculation escalated with recent videos showing him clutching a table and with a badly shaking hand. Now, The Sun, a British tabloid, is claiming that Putin is going under the knife for a cancer operation, as well as suffering from Parkinson’s.
As early as January 3, Britain’s Telegraph paper was suggesting that Putin is seriously ill.

Jill Biden is not an inherently interesting person. She’s been a teacher for some decades now, wrote an undistinguished thesis to get a meaningless Ed.D., and now functions as her husband’s nursemaid. She also lacks charm. And, of course, she’s White. Why someone thought a biography of her would be interesting is impossible to understand although a biography that took two people to write hit the market this past week—and completely bombed. (snip) Julie Page and Darlene Superville, both of whom are AP reporters, thought there was something there, something people would pay $26 for a hardback to learn about.

In case you were wondering why all views contrary to the Official Narrative have been canceled, it's because of the Asch Conformity Experiment. (snip) Asch showed that people will actually believe things that they know to be false if they think everybody else believes those things. That is the point of the COVID nightmare experiment we just lived though. You must believe:
COVID is hugely riskier than it actually was, so any actions are justified.
Vaccines are your only hope, even though the technology has never worked.

But fortunately, it didn’t quite work out for me -- and thank God for that, for had I become a State Department Foreign Service Officer (FSO), I almost literally could have gained the whole world, but in the process probably would have sacrificed my immortal soul. (snip) The first level of testing was a written examination. Only about 15% of the applicants make it through that level -- and I was one of them. (snip) The State Department is in the business of using taxpayers’ dollars to buy influence in the rest of the world

It’s been nine weeks since Russia invaded Ukraine. Everyone assumed Russia would storm through Ukraine in days, leading to a speedy surrender. (snip) Ben Wallace, Britain’s defense secretary, has assessed Russian losses (snip) It is our assessment that approximately 15,000 Russian personnel have been killed during their offensive. Alongside the death toll are the equipment losses. In total, a number of sources suggest that to date over 2,000 armoured vehicles have been destroyed (snip) The official Russian media is preparing people for a global nuclear war
