The Disney Grooming Syndicate’s annual SEC report tried to bury its foundational problems in the word salad of all word salads. Thankfully, That Park Place saw right through it. The key takeaway from the report is that Disney, as required by law in these filings, is warning investors that its social goals are more important than profits. “There is in such things a statement of the various ‘Risk factors’ the company may encounter,” explains That Park Place, “all in the obligatory legal way to avoid people later saying ‘You never warned us about this!!’” In other words, in this annual report, Disney must warn stockholders and potential stockholders

At its heart ESG is not about profits but about "social credit." That won't stand when, as pointed out in a nested link (in the form of a PS) in the originating post, the targeted kids have no money to spend. The money comes from the parents and significantly the grandparents, and they've noped-out. Profits are not made if money is not spent.

Their "environmental and social goals"....... Their goal should be to entertain, and make a profit. But, NO....that is not their goal. They have as most important goals....."environmental and social goals". I'll continue to advise everyone to stay away from all things Disney.

Disney absolutely puts woke ahead of profits. But Disney's lawyers are probably thinking that by being up front and formally disclosing that fact to investors, they will have a defense to a shareholder derivative lawsuit for misrepresentation.

I wonder how many billions of dollars Disney needs to lose before profits become more important than social issues. Those parks at some point are going to price themselves out of existence. They're heading in that direction now. From my observation, Disney World is no longer affordable to a family with young children. Those that go, are young adults with no children. When a park has to have a savings plan set up so that families can afford to visit, then the park is in trouble. Every movie Disney makes now is a flop. At some point making a profit will have to become a priority or the entire company goes under. Prioritizing social issues that aren't in line with what is considered a normal family, is no way to run a business that relies on families for its revenue.

Translating the lofty words used to describe their stupid behavior, one will see that Disney is trying to erase the natural boundaries between the sexes, the races and replace common sense with nonsense. Sure, you can remake movies full of white characters and replace them with black and brown characters, even Snow White, that's your prerogative but my choice is to avoid them all and laugh when you lose hundreds of millions of dollars. However, you pursue children as objects of your sick lust and you will eventually deal with a whole bunch of angry parents who will shut you down.

I've been following Disneys problems fairly closely lately, and there is a group of powerful investors who are teaming up to force Disney into giving them board seats and replacing Iger with (most likely) Nelson Pelz. Pelz tried to wrest control early this year but backed down when Iger and Co. relented on some of his demands, which they basically then ignored and did their own thing. Now between these investors (two of which are George Lucas and Apple) their combined stock in the company is either at or above 51%) it's possible that by this time next year the look of Disney mat be very different.

IDF messaging suggests Gaza truce unlikely

Gaza’s truce is unlikely to last significantly beyond Tuesday, with Israel’s military stepping up pressure on Sunday to restart the air and ground offensive in a campaign that some experts predict could run into next year. The four-day halt in fighting, described by the Israel DefenceForces (IDF) as “an operational pause”, is scheduled to end on 7am on Tuesday if the agreed transfer of 50 hostages held by Hamas and others in Gaza goes to plan. There is an expectation in many quarters that the pause will be extended for a few days, and the current agreement allows for an extra day’s truce for every 10 hostages Hamas is willing

What would left-wing politicians do without MAGA? How would they terrify ordinary voters into supporting liberals for office? I'm sure they'd think of something. But it's just too darn easy to blame MAGA for everything. So until another group comes along that presents itself as a suitable scapegoat, MAGA it will be.

LONDON – Tens of thousands of people including former U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson gathered in London on Sunday for a march against antisemitism, a day after large crowds turned out for a pro-Palestinian rally. Johnson was joined by U.K. Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis and other senior government officials at the march to express solidarity with the Jewish community. Organizers billed it as the largest gathering against antisemitism in London for almost a century. Marchers waved Israeli flags and Union Jacks, and held placards reading “Never Again Is Now” and “Zero Tolerance for Antisemites.” Sunday´s march was organized amid concerns about rising tensions sparked by the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.

U.S. President Joe Biden will not attend a gathering of world leaders focused on climate change in Dubai this week, a U.S. official said on Sunday. Reuters reported last month that Biden was unlikely to be at the United Nations "Conference of the Parties" on climate, known as COP28, which begins on Thursday, as he balances demands of a Middle East war and a presidential campaign expected to heat up in January. The president's schedule for Thursday released by the White House shows him hosting a bilateral meeting with President João Manuel Gonçalves Lourenço of the Republic of Angola and attending the National Tree Lighting.

A U.S. Destroyer took five individuals into custody on Sunday after they attempted a terrorist hijacking of an Israeli owned tanker in the Gulf of Aden. The Liberian-flagged Central Park chemical tanker — which is managed by Zodiac Maritime, a U.K. based firm that is part of Israeli billionaire Eyal Ofer’s Zodiac Group — was believed to have been seized earlier in the day. “US Navy personnel from the USS Mason responded to a distress call from the crew onboard an Israeli linked tanker,” said Fox News correspondent Jennifer Griffin. “5 armed gunmen tried to hijack the ship in Gulf of Aden.

Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) said on this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that President Joe Biden’s “weakness” has resulted in “Americans being taken hostage” and Iran attacking American assets in the region. Cotton said, “It seems like President Biden puts more pressure on Israel than he does on Hamas.” He continued, “Part of the reasons why we got to this point where we had to have a four-day pause is that the Biden administration has consistently, behind the scenes, insisted that Israel’s government take steps that are clearly not in Israel’s interests, for instance, providing fuel into Gaza, not just water or food or medicine, but fuel

The U.S. played a direct role in helping set up the Hamas office in Qatar during the Obama administration, seeking appeasement and soft diplomacy but ultimately failing to control the terrorist group as it festered in Gaza. "For many years now, both the United States and Israel have been living in a policy fantasy world where we have tolerated Hamas' existence in Doha and believed that Doha would be a moderating influence," Richard Goldberg, the coordinator for the Trump administration’s maximum pressure campaign on Iran, told Fox News Digital.

Joe Biden is weak and getting weaker as a presidential candidate among nearly all demographic groups, but five stand out, according to TIPP Insights, which conducts very reliable polls. According to TIPP Insights: One year before the 2024 election, President Biden faces challenges among several demographic groups. Using our TIPP Presidential Leadership Index, we identify 21 demographic segments where Biden is vulnerable. Our analysis reveals that his greatest vulnerability lies in the Midwest, among individuals aged 18-24, moderates, households with incomes under $30K, and households in the $50K-$75K bracket.

This is what you get when you trust terrorists. Did anyone believe that Hamas, who butchered 1,200-1,400 Israelis on October 7 and vows to destroy Israel, is gumming up the works for this recent hostage-based ceasefire agreement? Katie had the details of this Faustian bargain with a terror group earlier this week: "…the Israeli government officially agreed to a ceasefire with Hamas … in exchange for 50 hostages who were kidnapped by the terrorist organization and taken to the Gaza Strip on October 7. The rest of the 186 hostages held by Hamas and other Islamic terrorist groups will not be released.

It was like every interview the legacy media have conducted with President Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton . So, of course, leftist Latino groups, terrified this shift reflects the changing political views of Univision’s audience, are throwing a hissy fit. More than 70 Democratic Party-affiliated groups and some individuals, including the actor John Leguizamo, have signed a letter crying foul.

Trouble looms on the horizon for Joe Biden, at least for now. While polling has consistently shown discontent among younger voters, a key base for the Democratic Party, direct testimony isn't saying anything different. The Washington Post visited the campus of the University of Michigan, and the responses were dire for the cognitively challenged president. The Washington Post recently spoke to several University of Michigan voters who claimed they might support a candidate other than Biden due to the issue, with one voter telling the outlet that she and her friends now refer to the world leader as "Genocide Joe" because of his support for Israel.

Like Longfellow’s little girl, who had a little curl right in the middle of her forehead, sometimes ad agencies are very good indeed, and sometimes they’re horrid. When they’re good, it’s worth taking note because, as with all media, those short videos have a disproportionate effect on the American psyche. In the case of Chevy’s holiday ad, that effect can only be good. When I grew up in the 1960s and 1970s, in the pre-streaming age, you watched ads whether or not you wanted to. These years were the heydays of jingles and slogans. Indeed, for us, jingles were a family tradition.

According to a new Washington Post story, the Biden team is at its wit's end. They don't know what to do to convince the American people that the economy is in good shape. Of course, part of the reason they're failing so badly is because people know how much more they've had to pay for everything, and they see the high interest rates. Young people who would like to buy a home can't even do so in the current economy. But they're still trying to sell this to us, such as by claiming Thanksgiving was cheaper this year.
