Dennis Prager: Leftists defend those who
won’t allow Conservative parents to
see them or their grandkids
Posted By: zephyrgirl, 12/27/2022 11:39:50 AM
My last column, “Why Many Conservatives Won’t Be with Their Children or Grandchildren This Christmas,” dealt with the issue of parents whose left-wing adult children have cut off all contact with their parents because the parents are on the Right — children who will not even allow their parents to have contact with their grandchildren. One would think that any person with a functioning conscience and a normal human heart would feel for these parents.

New York Times media reporter Michael Grynbaum gives us the Times’s first take on the Twitter Files. RealClearPolitics links to an accessible version of Grynbaum’s story published at DNYUZ. Turning to the story posted here on the Times site, I see that Grynbaum’s story is published on page B5 of today’s Times. Between the national news and the sports section falls the shadow. Grynbaumn provides a bemused account of the suppression of the New York Post’s reporting on the Hunter Biden laptop and its contents.
DENVER (KDVR) – Video captured by a Cherry Creek resident shows thieves getting into the car and then callously taking what they please. The owner of the car said this has become a sad routine for him and his family. Working on his car has always been a pastime for Juergen Waldvogel. “This is the third time that we’ve experienced this in the last year, maybe two,” Waldvogel said.
Unfortunately for him, he’s now dealing with thefts from those cars. His Cherry Creek home, near First Avenue and Steele Street, was the target of thieves.
Elizabeth Holmes, the disgraced Theranos founder who was once compared to Steve Jobs before she was convicted of defrauding investors who backed the now-defunct blood-testing company, was sentenced to more than 11 years in prison on Friday. The pregnant Holmes, dressed in a dark blouse and black skirt, was given 135 months behind bars by US District Judge Edward Davila in the same San Jose, Calif., courtroom where a jury convicted her on four counts of investor fraud and conspiracy in January.
LAKEWOOD, Colo. (KDVR) — Two boys not old enough to get a driver’s permit now face two charges of first-degree murder and arson in a fire that killed a mother and her young daughter on Oct. 31. Both suspects appeared for their first court hearing Monday afternoon from a WebEx virtual link at the Jefferson County courthouse, where their ages were revealed as 12 and 14. The two were arrested on Sunday. Because of the ages of the juvenile suspects, their names cannot be released under Colorado law. A defense motion to close the court hearing to the media was denied.
NEW YORK — Four times a week on average, an e-bike or e-scooter battery catches fire in New York City. Sometimes, it does so on the street, but more often, it happens when the owner is recharging the lithium ion battery. A mismatched charger won't always turn off automatically when the battery's fully charged, and keeps heating up. Or, the highly flammable electrolyte inside the battery's cells leaks out of its casing and ignites, setting off a chain reaction. "These bikes when they fail, they fail like a blowtorch,"
The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) is a national treasure. Frighteningly, Biden is rapidly despoiling this treasure. The Reserve consists of four sites (Bryan Mound, Big Hill, Bayou Choctaw, and West Hackberry) with a combined storage capacity of 714 million barrels of crude oil. It is the largest strategic oil reserve in the world. The OPEC oil embargo of 1973 and the resultant oil crisis contributed to western governments’ recognition of how vulnerable their countries were to disruptions in Middle East oil.

Up to Campaign for Anti-Trump Candidate

Former President George W. Bush is taking time away from his retirement to campaign for Senate candidate Joe O’Dea of Colorado — who has bucked his party by saying he would not support former President Donald Trump as the next GOP nominee. According to Bridget Bowman of NBC News, the last Republican president to win the popular vote at least once will come back out of retirement to campaign for O’Dea:
Prince Charles was pictured heading to church in Balmoral alone this morning after claims he continues to find Harry and Meghan's jibes at the royal family 'painful' and is 'completely bewildered' by their behaviour. The Prince of Wales drove himself to Crathie Kirk this morning, with no sign of the Queen, who is normally a regular attendee and has been dealing with mobility issues in recent months. It comes as the royal family, many of whom have spent the last few weeks in Balmoral during the summer break with Her Majesty, prepare for more bombshells following the arrival of the Sussexes in the UK.
Paul Pelosi hired a private investigator in the aftermath of his DUI crash to obtain the police report of the incident, according to documents obtained by DailyMail.com. The 82-year-old husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi pleaded guilty last week to driving while under the influence in the Napa Valley crash. He was sentenced to five days in jail and three years of probation after crashing his Porsche on May 28.
The Theater of Democracy

In the United States, there have always been two realities with regards to the aboveground political culture. One reality engages in politics as it is presented in the media and the election process. The other reality, smaller and operating off the grid, looks at conventional politics as a farce or a fraud. The former group is larger and gets all of the attention, but the latter group seems to be on the upswing. For the most part, the American political system is a drama, a theater staged by the political class to keep people engaged.
New COVID-19 booster shots are set to be authorized this week by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and will be available to most Americans before human testing has even been completed. The shots have been modified to target the latest Omicron variant, but won't have finished testing in humans when the FDA makes the decision. Instead, the FDA is relying on data from other sources - like research in mice and older vaccines, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Afew years ago, I bought a used Tesla, not because I’m a car nut but because I had been a hypocrite. For years, I had been outspoken about the dangers of carbon emissions. Yet at the same time, I was driving an old gas-powered heap that got about 25 miles per gallon, and that sounded like a rocket launch every time I turned on the ignition.

Transgenders Can Get Periods: 'I'm a Real Girl!' 30 replies
Biological assimilation into femininity has long been the final frontier for transgender activists — a Rubicon they had not yet been able to fully cross. Aspirational transgenders can get various sordid surgeries to appear more feminine; they can adopt feminine social roles, but they could never really become fully biologically female.
This nags at the LGBTQ+++™ community something fierce, as biological reality always belies the religious conviction that “transgender women are women,” full-stop. They wish they could menstruate because, like transgender Pinocchios, they want desperately to be real girls, despite the deep-seated and dysphoric knowledge that their goal is impossible.
For instance, transgender TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney explains
Michelle Obama has revealed that she 'couldn't stand' husband Barack while their children were young.
The former First Lady, 58, also dubbed her two daughters, Sasha and Malia, as 'terrorists' when they were small.
She claims the couple struggled as they were both trying to 'advance their careers' – with her husband going on to become the president.
Michelle made the claims about her relationship with Barack, 61, while promoting her new book The Light We Carry.
Have you ever wondered why no pictures of Michelle Obama pregnant are available online?
The right-wing conspiracies are that there are no pictures of Michelle Obama pregnant at all.
But the left wing thinks that they aren’t pictures out there because Michelle Obama wasn’t famous at the time she was pregnant because Obama wasn’t a big deal and paparazzi weren’t hunting them.
One recent Twitter, thread sparked a huge controversy!
President Joe Biden is enjoying his tropical vacation in St Croix while thousands of Americans continue to suffer from travel chaos and the deadly blizzard that killed at least 68 people.
He will be sunning himself in the 84-degree Caribbean heat at a private home with beach access in the Virgin Islands. He's staying as a rent-free guest at the home of Bill and Connie Neville, who are bigtime Democratic donors.
He is joined by first lady Jill, grandkids Natalie and Hunter Jr., and daughter Ashley and her husband Howard for a family vacation. Ashley and Howard even brought their dog for the week-long getaway.
President Joe Biden reportedly does not trust the Secret Service to protect him, even though the agency has appeared to slow-walk disclosing documents related to Hunter Biden’s alleged gun violations.
According to Chris Whipple’s new book, “The Fight of His Life: Inside Joe Biden’s White House,” Biden does not trust the Secret Service because some of them allegedly do not support him politically.
“A bigger problem was Biden’s discomfort with his Secret Service detail; some of them were MAGA sympathizers. He didn’t trust them,” Whipple wrote. “The Secret Service is full of white ex-cops from the South who tend to be deeply conservative.”
Whipple makes Biden appear paranoid
Being all uber-woke you can be has just about brought the Army to its knees. In this day and age, they’ve fallen so far down the rabbit hole anymore that they can’t get anyone who’s their normal target recruit to sign up to save their lives. Or anyone else’s, for that matter. Their recruiting numbers are dismal.
…The service fell 15,000 recruits short of its fiscal 2022 goal and it cut its goal for total number of soldiers in fiscal year 2023 by an additional 15,000, suggesting that it sees a longer-term problem.
Only 23% of young Americans meet the fitness, health and other standards required to join the military,
Decades of use with nearly four billion doses to humans preceded recent use with COVID patients. From the chapter ‘Ivermectin sends COVID to lockdown,’ in my book The Defeat Of COVID.
Ivermectin is on the World Health Organization (WHO) List of Essential Medicines and is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This well-tolerated but potent anti-parasitic medicine has been prescribed billions of times in its 36-year history against a wide range of parasites. It is a drug in the avermectin family,(snip) It has also been studied and used against a wide range of viruses
Former President Donald Trump’s taxes are set to go public Friday, the Democrat-controlled House Ways and Means Committee stated Tuesday.
The committee obtained the tax returns in November after the Supreme Court ruled in its favor.
The tax documents will account for Trump’s tax returns from 2015 to 2021, Reuters reported.
Last week, the House Ways and Means Committee claimed in a report the IRS had not audited Trump for three out of the four years he was president. The IRS’s failure to audit Trump apparently broke its own rule.
The committee’s report did not include Trump’s tax returns in the report because confidential information had to be redacted
Southwest shambles

Until the Mayo Clinic starts using the Novichok nerve agent in place of anesthesia, Southwest Airlines will retain the corporate award for the most rapid and catastrophic self-destruction of its brand. (Snip) The vast majority of domestic flight cancellations are falling at Southwest's feet. Nor is this about the weather. It's about woeful mismanagement. The other domestic airlines, by and large, have recovered from the recent winter storm. But beset by decades of underinvestment in technology and evidently inadequate management, Southwest has been unable to schedule its crews or handle escalating customer service demands.
James Cameron has made some of the best action movies ever. Terminator, Terminator 2, Aliens. Even True Lies was pretty good. I thought Titanic sucked, and Avatar was a snooze, but Cameron has a few greats to be proud of.
But he isn’t proud of them. In fact, without naming these movies he implies he wished he never made them. They “fetishize” gun violence, and he is done with that. Guns make him sick to his stomach now.
He is so done with gun violence, in fact, that he has made a war movie (Avatar 2 is indeed a kind of war movie, in which the human beings
This is one of those stories that you’re certain is from the Babylon Bee, and that is stunning in its implications when it turns out to be the truth. In this case, the truth is that, in accordance with UN and WEF climate recommendations, the city of Oxford (home to the famed university) approved plans mandating that citizens may not drive more than 15 minutes distance from their homes without permission. It’s called the “15 Minute City” and is intended to reduce auto emissions. Mostly, though, it will reduce liberty, which is what climate change madness has always been about.

Parents with these toxic children should quit appeasing them and giving them power. Quit being a victim. Ignore them and enjoy life without them. Spend all your money and cut them off without a penny.
