How Low Can Blue Cities Sink?
Posted By: Hazymac, 4/12/2023 1:26:09 PM
Americans are fleeing blue states, and especially blue cities, in historic numbers. Can things possibly get worse? They can, indeed they can. Take San Francisco. Things are so bad there that Whole Foods, an iconic liberal company, has shut its flagship store in that city after just one year of operation, due to rampant crime and drug use that, the company said, made it impossible to assure the safety of its employees. But when it comes to commercial real estate, San Francisco, while very bad, is not the bottom of the barrel. John Phelan reports on a series of corporate departures from Minneapolis and St. Paul. The numbers are grim.

Equality Florida wants you to know that it is safer to visit Chicago than Florida. (from Tweet) "BREAKING: Today, we took the extraordinary step of issuing a travel advisory, warning of the risks posed to the health, safety, and freedom of those considering short or long term travel, or relocation to the state." Yep. Florida, where you have to keep your pants zipped and stay away from the kids. It’s appalling. [Tweet] This is, of course, all part of a coordinated campaign. “Coincidentally” a Florida immigrant group has done the same thing, warning that Florida is a hellhole for immigrants.
Yep. Florida. Immigrants are fleeing!

Enter the 2020 Presidential Election: The Progressive Left saw Donald Trump as an existential threat to their plans. In the space of four short years, he had undone much of the "progress" Obama had made during his reign, and four more years of Trump could set them back decades, and perhaps even forever. He had to be stopped
Where might we be?: Imagine what things might have been like had the 2020 election been honest. We would still be energy independent and even a net energy exporter. Our economy would be growing with no inflation in sight.

The bloodthirsty political hacks at CNN gloomily reported this week that there were an estimated 32,000 fewer abortions in the U.S. in the six months following the Supreme Court Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade. Apparently, we’re supposed to be sorry that 32,000 unique and irreplaceable human beings have a chance at life instead of being chopped up alive while still in the womb?
MRC Culture’s Tierin-Rose Mandelburg reported on April 12 that “CNN Health released a piece Tuesday with results from a study that suggested that there were 32,000 fewer legal abortions in the United States in the six months following Roe v. Wade being overturned.
“Anne Frank’s diary gives a child’s face to the Holocaust’s incomprehensible truths. It often constitutes what the @HolocaustMuseum calls ‘the first, and sometimes only, exposure many people have to the history of the Holocaust.’ Who would want to ban it?” – Nat Geo writer David Beard tweeted. (Snip) Not a week goes by that the mainstream media and their allies in the Democratic party don’t work hand in hand to misinform the public in an effort to push false narratives about their political opposition.
This week has certainly been no exception to that rule, with the Associated Press among the numerous media outlets that have distorted a Florida
Remember how during Trump’s presidency, the media went to great lengths to push the narrative that Trump inspired an increase in racism and hate crimes?
And then it felt like many of the hate crimes reported in the media were actually hoaxes?
It didn’t stop the mainstream media from perpetuating the false narrative that Trump was to blame for a rise in hate crimes. Why? Because it appealed to the left’s ideology. The left wants to believe that America is a bigoted, racist country, and blaming Trump for it was the icing on the cake — and they made sure they had their slice and ate it, too.
People who say "love is love" are morons. Living in Washington taught me that. They never ask "how" or "for whom," and they somehow have the idea that you can just love, and everything will turn out great.
If they'd ask questions, it wouldn't be so simple. For instance, is politics — one of the dirtiest and most unscrupulous games we play — love? Aren't you fighting for somebody when you're fighting somebody else? Can you love a criminal and a victim at the same time? Isn't love a choice toward one person or one group of people and an exclusion of some others?
Tennessee House Rep. Justin Jones, who was recently ousted for his participation in the Tennessee Capitol protest insurrection and then reinstated — claims he wasn’t violent during the 2020 “summer of love” riots in honor of George Floyd.
FACT-O-RAMA! Jones was one of two Tennessee House Reps booted from the state’s legislature after taking part in an anti-gun protest in the state’s Capitol.
“They will try to push a false narrative portraying me as ‘violent’ as a way to deflect from their own actions. They will suggest that I am out of order. That is their strategy. However, I’m hopeful for the chance to present our evidence in a transparent manner,”

An Australian bank is now offering six weeks of paid leave to employees who want to change their legal sex, undergo surgery or other steps related to changing their gender.
SunCorp, a banking, finance and insurance corporation, announced the new benefits for transgender employees last month during "World Pride Week." SunCorp New Zealand insurer announced the same benefits as well.
"Suncorp Group is excited to announce it is introducing new leave entitlements for employees affirming their gender," the company stated in a press release.

President Joe Biden took questions from kids during his Ireland trip, during which he told a lengthy story about the late Senator Jesse Helms, who was “not very crazy about African Americans.”
After the Northern Ireland leg of his swing through the Emerald Isle, President Biden and Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar held a meet-and-greet with embassy staff, children, and firefighters shortly after Biden’s arrival at Dublin Airport.
After delivering brief remarks, the president — with an assist from Hunter Biden, who joined his dad on the trip — asked the kids if they wanted to ask any questions.
Biden Bans 53% of Americans From Buying Cars

The New York Times reported that the Biden administration will abuse EPA regulations to eliminate most real car sales by 2030. The plan is to force 67% of car sales to be electric by 2032. Most Americans won’t be able to afford them, but they’ll have no other options.
Even the cheapest electric cars, which are still far more expensive than their real car counterparts and are just one battery problem away from turning into mostly unusable junk, are out of the price range of the majority of Americans who need an income of $80,000 to make an EV auto loan work. That’s fine in Washington D.C. where
“There is nothing new under the sun,” says the Book of Ecclesiastes (1:9), and that includes today’s fashionable trans madness. While men mutilating themselves and taking hormones and calling themselves women may be a new aspect of this phenomenon, men have been donning dresses and prancing around pretending to be women from time immemorial. And now a detransitioner, a woman who spent several years pretending to be a man before awakening from her delusion, has rooted the trans phenomenon in another extremely old idea: Gnosticism, an ancient religious belief that derided the material world as evil and is combated in the New Testament.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) has missed 60 of 82 votes taken this year, and her absence has prompted a whispering campaign suggesting she step down so that the Senate can confirm as many of Biden’s radical left judges as possible.
Feinstein has been home since March 7 after being hospitalized for a bout of shingles. The Senate, which has been in recess since March 31, is set to reconvene on April 17. At that time, the Judiciary Committee will take up several judicial nominations, and Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) believes that Feinstein’s absence will impede the Committee’s ability to vote the judges out.
“I can’t consider nominees in these circumstances,

An estimated 18,000 milking cows were killed, and one person was left critically injured, after an explosion ripped through a Texas dairy farm on Monday. Authorities have yet to determine the cause of the blast.
The Castro County Sheriff’s Office confirmed with Fox News Digital the cows were in a holding area before being brought in for milking when the fiery blast engulfed the Southfork Dairy Farm in Dimmitt.
The explosion rocked nearby houses and a pall of smoke could be seen 30 miles away.
Very few cows in the holding area survived, officials told local outlet KFDA.
Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina launched an exploratory committee for a 2024 presidential campaign on Wednesday, taking a major step toward a Republican primary arena that former President Donald Trump has dominated so far.
"This is personal to me," Scott, 57, said in a video announcing the committee. "I will never back down in defense of the conservative values that makes America exceptional. And that's why I'm announcing my exploratory committee for president of the United States." Scott's move toward a White House run puts him on track to collide with fellow South Carolina Republican Nikki Haley, the former governor and United Nations ambassador who launched

A flower shop near Nashville refused to provide decorations for a GOP event featuring former President Donald Trump, and urged other businesses to deny future services to the Republican Party in a call for stricter gun laws.
Owners of the FLWR Shop in Belle Meade, Tennessee, said they "immediately declined" service for the upcoming Republican National Committee (RNC) fundraiser and encouraged "others in the Nashville event industry to say no to taking money or jobs from the Republican Party until they begin to make the changes to gun laws that most Americans are calling for." (Snip) the speakers featured at the RNC event go "beyond our comfort level."
A trove of leaked Pentagon documents were circulating online for months without being discovered by the U.S. government — raising questions about how the administration missed them.
Images of the classified documents that circulated on social media in recent days were posted to a popular messaging website as far back as January. But they appear to have only caught the government’s attention around the time they were first reported in the media in early April. “No one in the U.S. government knew they were out there,” one U.S. official said. As to why they didn’t: “We cannot answer that just yet,”

BOSTON - Jack Teixeira, a member of the Massachusetts Air National Guard, has been identified as the suspect who allegedly leaked classified U.S. intelligence documents online, according to CBS News.
Teixeira is an Airman 1st Class in the Guard's 102nd Intelligence Wing, according to the organization's Facebook page. He was first identified Thursday by the New York Times as the "leader of a small online gaming chat group" named "Thug Shaker Central," that's allegedly responsible for leaking the documents.
According to Associated Press sources, the FBI wants to question him in the leak of the highly classified military documents on the war in Ukraine.
On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Berkshire Hathaway Chairman and CEO Warren Buffett responded to a question on the causes of inflation by stating that “It’s fun sending money out to people if you want to stay in office” and when you just give away money, “something’s going to happen. You’re not going to have more goods and services produced immediately that can sop up that money.”
Co-host Joe Kernen asked, “What I was trying to figure out, Warren, is, in your long life, where you’ve seen a lot of different business cycles and you’ve seen hyperinflation and you’ve seen secular disinflation last forever,
Sometimes the obvious answers are in the reality of the obvious part that few pay attention to.
According to the original outline, as presented by the Washington Post last night [Original Story Here], the full surveillance and intelligence power of the United States government was unable to locate the source of the largest leak of U.S. classified intelligence in a decade, but some journalists found a teenager in his mom’s basement with all the answers. This is the story, and they are sticking to it.(snip)Why the intelligence people from inside the CIA/NSA silo wanted to exploit the teenage gamer with a connection to an intelligence leaker, as the preferred
Joe Biden on Thursday delivered a disastrous speech to the Irish Parliament in Dublin.
Biden is currently in the middle of a 4-day trip to Ireland.
After ogling young girls at a Gaelic sports demonstration, Biden headed over to the Irish Parliament to deliver remarks. (Photo) Biden could barely read the teleprompter.
He slurred his words and told bizarre stories.
At one point Joe Biden said his grandfather compared him to a revolutionary warlord who was shot dead: “Joey, I worry about you. You’re too much like that guy who led the Revolution.
SAN FRANCISCO — Tech mogul Bob Lee was murdered in San Francisco by someone he knew, police and prosecutors said at a news conference Thursday.
Lee, 43, was stabbed to death on April 4 by 38-year-old Nima Momeni, Police Chief Bill Scott told reporters. Momeni was arrested at his home in Emeryville early Thursday morning and booked into jail on one count of murder. Momeni is the owner of Expand IT, a Bay Area technology and security company, according to a LinkedIn profile.
“We can confirm that Mr. Lee and Mr. Momeni knew each other,” Chief Scott said. “Most people who commit homicides know the people who they kill.
