How liberal policies have killed black
communities: Clarence Thomas
Posted By: Imright, 6/23/2022 2:48:48 AM
In this excerpt from the just-published “Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words” by Michael Pack and Mark Paoletta, the Supreme Court justice reflects on changes in his hometown, Savannah, Ga. The book is based on more than 30 hours of interviews Pack conducted with Thomas and his wife Ginni for the film of the same name; 95% of the book’s material is new, including this excerpt. Michael Pack: You have talked a little today about how life in the black community has not been improved by many well-intentioned social programs. Do you think, in some sense, it is worse than when you grew up?

Former President Donald Trump issued a severe smackdown to his Republican haters in a statement on Sunday, characterizing them as talentless fools.
Calling out George Will, Rich Lowry, Jonah Goldberg, and others by name, the former president said that nobody should listen to such “foolish (stupid!) people”:
I listen to all of these foolish (stupid!) people, often living in a bygone era, like the weak and frail RINO, Peggy Noonan, who did much less for Ronald Reagan than she claims, and who actually said bad things about him and his ability to speak, or Rich Lowry, who has destroyed the once wonderful and influential National Review,
What an embarrassment.
Joe Biden needed some help today to sit and pose for a photo with G7 leaders in Germany. (Photo) German Chancellor Olaf Scholz welcomed global leaders of the Group of Seven rich democracies to a three-day summit in the Bavarian Alps on Sunday.
The global leaders took turns babysitting Joe Biden as he stumbled through the day and slurred his speech in front of the G7.Joe Biden insisted another pandemic is on the horizon.
House Intelligence Committee chair Adam Schiff begrudgingly admitted this Sunday that he’s “yet to see any indication” that former President Donald Trump is under investigation by the Department of Justice.
He made the bombshell admission while predictably complaining about the DOJ’s refusal to directly charge Trump.
Speaking on MSNBC’s “Meet the Press,” he was asked by host Chuck Todd whether the DOJ’s recent actions, including the Orwellian arrest of Trump-era Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Clark, have inspired more confidence in him.
“This week the Department of Justice certainly let the public know it was doing a lot more on Jan. 6th than we’d seen in the past. I think there were subpoenas served
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that it was not his “principle interest” that former President Donald Trump be criminally charged for his actions surrounding the January 6, 2021 riot on Capitol Hill.
Partial transcript as follows:
RADDATZ: Given this week’s testimony, will you be – all the testimony really, will you be disappointed if the Justice Department does not file charges against Donald Trump?
RASKIN: You know, the – I have to tell you, speaking for myself, that is not my principle interest. I mean our democracy is on the line here. Our Constitution is at stake.
Rudy Giuliani was slapped by a worker at a ShopRite on Staten Island on Sunday while campaigning for his son, leaving the 78-year-old former New York City mayor shaken, the ex-pol told The Post.
Giuliani said he had just gotten out of the men’s room at the store on Veteran’s Road and was being greeted by a bunch of supporters when he was suddenly hit from behind — an incident caught on surveillance video obtained by The Post.
“All of a sudden, I feel this, ‘Bam!’ on my back,” Giuliani said. “I don’t know if they helped me not fall down, but I just about fell down, but I didn’t.
God, Guns, Babies, Trump!

It’s an interesting day to wake up in America this morning.
The Supreme Court just finished its most historic session since 1973. It corrected massive wrongs perpetrated in cases so pervasive that had it not done so we would have been within a hairs breath of losing our first and second amendment rights or good!
It did and will do even more good in the days to come.
It defended the religious liberties that our founders acknowledged were given to us by God. It defended voter integrity by a judgement of 8-1. In a sizable majority it instructed states that have been stomping on the second amendment
Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD) advanced a bill to ban abortion pills from being prescribed online.
During CBS’s Face the Nation, Noem told host Margaret Brennan that abortion care providers will no longer be able to prescribe the pills through telemedicine appointments.
“These are very dangerous medical procedures,” Noem told Brennan, adding “we don’t believe it should be available because it is a dangerous situation for an individual without being medically supervised by a physician.”
In March, the Republican governor signed a bill requiring patients seeking an abortion through medication, to go to a third appointment in-person before being given the second dose.
WASHINGTON— President Joe Biden rarely mentions his predecessor by name. But as he spoke to a nation processing a seismic shift in the rights of women, he couldn’t ignore Donald Trump’s legacy.
“It was three justices named by one president — Donald Trump — who were the core of today’s decision to upend the scales of justice and eliminate a fundamental right for women in this country,” Biden said Friday after the Supreme Court’s conservative majority voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark ruling from 1973 that provided constitutional protections for women seeking abortions.
The abortion decision marked the apex in a week that reinforced the former president’s ongoing impact
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) claimed without evidence on Sunday that some U.S. Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade “lied” under oath during their confirmation hearings, which she said is “an impeachable offense.”
Ocasio-Cortez made the remarks during an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” with host Chuck Todd, who brought up how Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) said that the justices had testified “under oath.”
“They lied,” Ocasio-Cortez claimed. “If we allow Supreme Court nominees to lie under, under oath and secure lifetime appointments to the highest court of the land and then issue, issue without basis
Unaccompanied migrant children will soon be transported and detained at a former private school located in Greensboro, NC thanks to President Joe Biden’s administration.
The contract between the Office of Refugee Resettlement and American Hebrew Academy in Greensboro had a five-year initial term, which will allow the Department of Health and Human Services to occupy the campus until at least 2027.
“It was made perfectly for the situation,” Skip Alston, Guilford County Commission Chairman Skip told KFMY.
One person was killed and another wounded after gunmen opened fire on a CTA bus Sunday afternoon in West Garfield Park.
About 1:20 p.m., two armed males entered the bus in the 300 block of South PulaskiRoad, walked to the back and began shooting at two people on board, Chicago police said.
A male, whose age was unknown, was shot in the head and taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.
A man, 24, suffered a graze wound to the head and refused medical attention, police said.
Trump’s “fake news” media attack might be one of his best and longest-serving insults, as it’s been used constantly since he first started using it to describe all of the vicious, lie-filled attacks directed his way by the media.
But now he’s switching things up a bit and using a new term to describe the lying, corporate press, one that might be even more accurate and awesome than the already terrific “fake news” insult.
That new term is “corrupt news”, which he unveiled during his recent Mendon, Illinois rally.
The unveiling of the new term came during Trump’s discussion of the many attacks coming his way from the January 6th Committee,

NEW YORK -- In response to the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 ruling that enshrined to the right to abortion in the United States, Mayor Eric Adams spoke about how abortion prevented his life from being derailed when he and his girlfriend accidentally got pregnant when he was 15 years old.

Celebrities reacted to the decision via social media with Alyssa Milano saying it will have "deadly consequences" and Elizabeth Banks calling it "devastating news."

Democrats for years have been promoting the notion that Republicans are congenitally racist, regulur Bull Connors. It's the old Norman Rockwell painting of a little black girl clad in a white dress, being escorted by lawmen into a desegregating school in Mississippi, with foul racist graffiti and tomato stains on the wall behind her, that serves as their template for Republicans -- despite the fact that the people who opposed desegregation in the Deep South were Democrats.
The stereotype they pin on Republicans does not stop. It's that of the jewel-bedecked rich lady sniffing up her nose, looking down at, and brushing aside the dreaded hoi polloi
