I'm a 60 something wife, mom and grandmom who is homebound/disabled by severe hypersensitivity to chemicals. I fill my days with learning, loving and art. My favorite values are truth, generosity and gratitude.
While it is true that more information is available more quickly than ever before, the problems of people spreading lies, slander, gossip, disinformation, fake news, partisan talking points, etc. etc. dates back to the Garden of Eden.
Surely the Founders knew all about it, yet they made it a top priority to ensure that speech in America should be policed by individuals, not the government. They may not have had any inkling of the problem we face now with billionaire CEOs deciding what we should and shouldn’t know, but they certainly would have opposed them.
So how should we go about filtering out what we should believe, pass on, and base our beliefs and actions upon?
One method dates back to Socrates, who is credited with the Triple Filter Test.
Is it true? Do I know for a fact that this information is true? Can I bet on it? Will I be able to prove it to anyone? Am I willing to compromise my reputation over this?
Is it good? Does it benefit me or the other person? Will it make them or me a better person and evoke positive emotions? Will the situation of those involved improve?
Is it necessary or useful? By knowing this message, will that person’s life or my life improve? Can that person take any practical action regarding this information or message? In what way does not knowing this information hurt or affect the other person?
The Rotary Club has developed their Four-Way Test, which they describe as “a nonpartisan and nonsectarian ethical guide for Rotarians to use for their personal and professional relationships.” Rotarians recite it at club meetings.
Of the things we think, say or do,
Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
The Bible also has a lot to say about this issue. My personal favorite is Philippians 4:8.
CUOMO: Last year, Gov. Cuomo instructed the state Department of Health to conduct prioritized coronavirus testing on his relatives and other influential people with ties to the administration. As a result, Dr. Eleanor Adams, a Harvard-trained epidemiologist, drove out to Long Island to test CNN’s Chris Cuomo, the governor’s brother. CNN didn’t cover the story.
ELECTION INTEGRITY: Georgia’s Gov. Brian Kemp has signed legislation into law requiring stronger voter identification requirements for absentee ballots and limiting the use of ballot drop boxes. These are exactly the kinds of election reforms that the Democrats in D.C. are trying to prevent with their heinous H.R. 1 bill.
FAUXTUS’ PRESSER: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/TuckerCarlsonTonight/videos/1381034312230528 [10:59] to hear Tucker’s BRUTAL analysis of the pathetic performance by the empty-headed suit in the White House and his slobbering fans in the media. Be sure to stay on to see Mark Steyn at the end LOL.
CLICK https://www.facebook.com/cherry.walker1/posts/10222258208418757 [5:18] to hear the clips Bill O’Reilly chose and his commentary. Border apprehensions are up 174%, but FAUXTUS says it’s just the normal winter surge. This clip isn’t funny or snarky, like Tucker’s, but it includes different clips.
MANCHIN: Remember how yesterday I said Sen. Joe Manchin could be critical to stopping the Democrats’ evil H.R.1/S.1 power grab? You’ll never guess whose wife just got nominated for what the FAUXTUS administration calls a “key” position?
SPORTS: On Thursday, Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed into law a bill banning transgender female-identifying athletes from participating in women’s sports. I’m curious to see if the NCAA boycotts Arkansas over it, like they threatened to do to South Dakota.
TRANSPORTATION TAX: CLICK https://twitter.com/therecount/status/1375448566865485833 [:19] to hear FAUXTUS’ Secretary of Transportation, former mayor of somewhere or other, Pete “he’s gay so he’s qualified” Bootyjudge tell us how excited he is about taxing drivers by mileage.
Tweeters had much to say, most of it beginning with the F word. Personally, I’m just all over gob-smacked about his statement that taxing gasoline “isn’t the way to go any more.” Is that Democrat code for “We can’t get away with raising the gas tax any higher than it already is”?
BULL: Dearest has always had a better sense of direction, been physically stronger and less sensitive to the cold, plus more able to focus on a single project for hours at a time than I have.
I have always been better at remembering where things are stored, been more tolerant of physical discomfort and interruptions, plus more capable of multi-tasking than he has.
ELECTION GRABBING: The Senate held a hearing on elections bill, S.1, the Democrats’ effort to unconstitutionally federalize elections. The Constitution grants to the states the full power to conduct elections as they each see fit.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer [D-NY] accused Republicans of being “afraid of democracy.”
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell [R-KY] said the bill is based on a bogey man that doesn’t exist. “States are not engaging in trying to suppress voters whatsoever.”
Sen. Ted Cruz [R-TX] said, “This bill has rightly been called the Corrupt Politicians Act because it is designed to keep corrupt politicians in office.”
Sen. Bill Hagerty [R-TN] said the bill “is really a power grab by those politicians that are currently in power, that wrote this bill to use their power—even though it’s so thin, a 50-50 Senate—to use their power to fundamentally change the rules of the game so they stay in power permanently.”
Sen. Joe Manchin [D-WV] says he won’t support the bill unless Republicans get on board. Given the 50-50 partisan split, with VFAUTUS’ tie breaking vote, Manchin’s opposition may be crucial.
GUN GRABBING: After every mass shooting, Democrats want to take guns away from all the people who didn’t do it. But they have no problem with abortionists using lethal instruments to murder unborn babies.
HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES: Senate Democrats approved the nomination of abortion and trans activist Rachel Levine to be Assistant Health Secretary. Senators voted 52-48, with pro-abortion Republicans Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski joining Democrats supporting Levine, who thinks gender-confused minors should be given puberty-blocking hormones and mutilating plastic surgery.
INCREDIBLE: You have to click on the article below to see photos of the first six tiny (400-square-feet) houses that have been built by Icon, an Austin-based startup. The houses are part of a 51-acre development aimed at helping the chronically homeless get off the streets. Icon brought its technology to try and speed up the building process, while simultaneously making it cheaper. The houses are gorgeous!
KARMA: Bandy Lee, a Yale School of Medicine psychiatrist who repeatedly diagnosed Trump as mentally unfit and dangerous (without ever having met him) has apparently been fired by Yale University.
She’s suing Yale for “unlawful termination… due to her exercise of free speech about the dangers of Donald Trump’s presidency.” But diagnosing people from afar is a big no-no in psychiatry. It’s called the APA’s Goldwater Rule, which is the reason Yale stated for her termination.
Her exercises in free speech included publishing a whole book called, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 37 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President, appearing on television repeatedly, and tweeting her professional opinion that “just about all” of former president Donald Trump’s supporters as suffering from “shared psychosis.”
Funny, isn’t it, that Yale put up with her flagrant abuses of the Goldwater Rule until after FAUXTUS was safely in the office he stole?
KRISTI NOEM: South Dakota’s Republican governor has been taking a beating for sending a bill back to the legislature for tweaking. The Left is mad, because she didn’t veto the bill that was aimed at preventing biological male athletes from competing as females. The Right is mad, because she didn’t sign it.
Brian Darling at PJ Media wrote the best thing I’ve seen about this so far. In his article, he praises Gov. Noem for being a responsible governor, rather than a governor who obsesses about her polls. If you care about the issue, I suggest you read it.
MEDIA HATRED: They should’ve been hoping Trump got re-elected, because now that they don’t have him to spew at any more, their viewership is in the toilet. CNN is down 45% and MSNBC is down 26%.
Viewership is down all around, but Fox News Channel is only off by six percent.
PERSECUTION: Michael Berry is general counsel to the First Liberty Institute (FLI), a Plano, Texas-based public interest law firm. Berry is also an officer in the Marine Corps Reserves.
On March 24th, in his capacity as a civilian lawyer who specializes in First Amendment and religious freedom cases, Berry testified before the House Armed Services Committee about a new Department of Defense (DOD) training manual that labels Catholics and Evangelical Christians as religious extremists, alongside members of the Ku Klux Klan, al-Qaeda, and Hamas.
Al-Qaeda, Hamas, and the Ku Klux Klan use or advocate violence to accomplish their objectives and are therefore rightly classified as extremists. Catholics and Evangelical Christians most assuredly do not. The Left includes them, because they hold fast to millennia-old views on marriage and human sexuality, saying their alleged extremism makes them unfit to serve in the United States military.
POWER GRABBING: While assuring us that there is no such thing as voter fraud and that the 2020 election was pure as the driven snow, Pelosi’s Democrats are trying to overturn the election of Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA) who beat her opponent by just six votes.
The Democrats only have a slim seven vote majority in the House. So far, four of them – Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), Rep. Chris Pappas (D-NH), Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA), Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) – have said they oppose Pelosi’s move to unseat Miller-Meeks in favor of her Democratic opponent.
PRESSER: Mollie Hemingway described FAUXTUS’ March 25th presser as “easily the most painful presidential press conference I’ve ever seen” with “horrifically bad questions” from the “unspeakably horrific” and “corrupt … partisan media.”
PRO-ABORTS: Abortion activists dress as genitalia. They sketch pornographic drawings on their signs and shout “I hope you get raped” at female sidewalk counselors. They tell pro-lifers getting an abortion is fun and that they’d like to eat the fetuses because they’re tasty.
RACE-BASED VIOLENCE: The Left is pushing the myth that Asian-Americans are being terrorized by White Supremacists across the country. And, of course, it’s all Trump’s fault. Al Sharpton devoted a whole 10 minutes of his MSNBC show on Sunday to pimping these lies.
The Slime Media is loudly announcing the race of victims, but NOT of the perps when it doesn’t fit their myth. On Friday, a BLACK man brutally beat an Asian man on a New York subway while shouting, “You Asian motherf—er.”
RACISM: Oakland, California, has a program that sends “no-strings-attached” $500 checks to low-income families of color. The program explicitly excludes Caucasians, because white households on average make about three times as much as black households. On average … so TDB for the 10,000 white residents living in poverty in Oakland.
BANKRUPTING AMERICA: [1:21] – The national debt is over $28 Trillion and the Dems have just signed a $1.9 Trillion spending bill into law. We should really not be surprised that they’re busy putting together a new $3 Trillion spending bill that is in adition to the $4+ Trillion annual federal budget.
When America goes bust, I think it’ll be like 9/11 and the pandemic. We’ll wake up one day to find the world is drastically worse than it was the day before. When Greece went bankrupt, the government stuck its sticky fingers into people’s bank accounts and took what they wanted. So, I dunno about all y’all, but I’m keeping my spare money out of the bank and putting it into survival products from 4Patriots.com. Besides helping us to literally survive, they will retain barter value regardless of inflation.
In all of FY2020, Border Patrol apprehended just over 33,000 unaccompanied minors crossing the border illegally. So far this fiscal year (we’re half way through), BP has apprehended more than 29,000.
The FAUXTUS “we’re totally committed to transparency” administration is denying access to the facilities where these kids are being detained. Even the lawyers tasked with overseeing these facilities have been locked out. But the agents themselves who have to work inside and are appalled at the conditions are risking their livelihoods to smuggle out photos and speak anonymously to the press.
One of them (code name: Carlos) spoke to The Epoch Times about conditions inside the facility where he works. Up to 80 individuals are squeezed into each 24- by 30-foot cell with one or two agents responsible for 300 to 500 people during a shift.
There aren’t enough mattresses for everyone and the family-unit holding cells smell like urine and vomit. Scabies, lice, the flu, and COVID-19 run rampant. “Any diseases that are in there, it’s being kept in there, like a petri dish. The smell is overwhelming.”
Children who are with extended family members rather than biological parents are separated into minors only cells, where fights routinely break out. No agent wants to report physical or sexual assaults between detainees for fear they’ll get blamed for “letting it happen.” But the assaults happen.
The law requires Border Patrol to prioritize unaccompanied minors and transfer them to the Department of Health and Human Services within 72 hours. “We’re getting them out of here as quickly as possible, but we are so overwhelmed right now,” Carlos said. “It used to be easy to get them out in 72 hours. Not anymore. They’re staying here for 10, 12 days. It’s horrible.”
FAUXTUS has reportedly put VFAUXTUS in charge of the border. On Tuesday, a reporter asked her if she was going to visit the border. She said, “Not today.” Then, she laughed.
GO GREEN: On March 15, Marine Corps veteran James “Cowboy” Johnson (70) of Norristown, Pennsylvania, saw smoke coming out of a neighbor’s house. He called 911, then he and two neighbor boys kicked in the door. Johnson, who has a lung condition, ran into the smoke-filled building and up to the second floor where he found a man on fire. He brought him down the steps and outside, where they used a blanket to put out the fire on the man. He said afterwards that he wasn’t worried for himself, but for saving a life.
NEW YORK: Democrats in Albany and Washington are planning to hike taxes on rich New Yorkers. Never mind that they already pay more and get less than taxpayers anywhere else; soon they’ll be expected to fork over more than 50% of their income … provided they’re dumb enough to continue living in New York, that is.
PERSECUTION: Jack Phillips is a Christian cake artist who will make cakes for all people, but he will not make cases for all messages. Because of his personal beliefs, he has a policy declining cakes with messages regarding Halloween, alcohol, racism, marijuana, same-sex marriage, and gender transformation.
The Left hates him with a passion. The State of Colorado went after him for refusing to make a same-sex wedding cake. The Supreme Court ruled in his favor. He’s back in court again, this time defending his right to refuse to make a cake to celebrate the anniversary of a man’s transition to womanhood.
The perpetrator of this lawsuit is a guy-gal who harassed Phillips for months, demanding he make cakes that violated his Christian beliefs. One request was for a cake showing Satan performing fellatio.
PROJECT VERITAS: During its 10 year history, PV has won all seven of the legal cases it has litigated. Compare this to Mike Wallace, who was sued multiple times at “60 Minutes” and chose to settle more than 100 times, and CNN that recently settled a $250 million lawsuit with Covington High School students.
And they’re on their way to another victory as New York State Justice Charles Wood refused to dismiss their suit against defamatory and untrue statements made by New York Times writers Maggie Astor and Tiffany Hsu in which they falsely claim that Project Veritas was part of a coordinated disinformation effort that used deceptive videos and unidentified sources. Ironically, Astor and Hsu used unidentified sources to support their claims.
In his ruling, Wood scoffed about “one of the largest newspapers in the world” claiming it needed the court’s protection from “an upstart competitor armed with a cell phone and a web site.”
PSAKI FALLACY: FAUXTUS’ press secy was asked a question about $3.5 million that Hunter Biden received from the wife of the mayor of Moscow. This issue was widely covered at the time, mentioned in a Senate report, and brought up during the debates.
(FYI: Her name is pronounced JEN SACK-ee, which rhymes with STOO-pid LYE-er.)
SCOTUS: CLICK https://rumble.com/vex4cf-scotus-rules-in-favor-of-college-student-targeted-by-school-in-free-speech-.html [2:30] to hear OAN report about a recent pro-First Amendment ruling. The case was brought by Chike Uzuegbunam against Georgia Gwinnett College, where he was stopped by campus police for handing out religious materials on campus. Even after he got permission and moved to one of the tiny, “free speech designated” areas, campus police stopped him, saying he had violated campus speech codes. The Supremes voted 8-1 in Chike’s favor, with scumbag Roberts being the only dissenter.
TRANS: According to Chase Strangio, ACLU lawyer and Deputy Director for Transgender Justice, there would be a lot less violence in this country if more people could just accept and celebrate their sexual attraction to trans people.
I’d like Deputy Director Chase “Project Much” Strangio to riddle me this. Would there be less violence in this country if more people could just accept and celebrate their secret desire to be Jewish?
In 2019, law enforcement agencies attributed 224 offenses nation-wide to gender-identity bias. During that same year, law enforcement agencies attributed nearly 1,000 offenses nation-wide to anti-Jewish bias.
VOTER SUPPRESSION: [Begin at 2:30 of 10:29 video] – At a Senate hearing for the so-called “For the People Act,” Republican Sen. Roy Blunt asked why Democrats condemn a Utah law as “voter suppression.”
The law requires that dead voters be removed from election rolls. The definition of “dead voter” is based a person being listed as deceased by the Social Security Administration, which, you know, keeps track of these things, so they don’t send Social Security checks to dead people.
The witness said that SSA dead people’s list can’t be trusted, because the federal government makes mistakes.
The “For the People Act” seeks to override the Constitution, which puts control of elections in the hands of the individual states and put it in the hands of the federal government.
So Sen. Blunt asked, “So why do you want feds to run elections?”
WEIRD: In a reversal of age-old story lines about young women disguising themselves as men to gain glory, a 50-year-old man with the biker knowledge and social media savvy to be a internet star used modern technology to make himself into a beautiful young woman. Compounding the weirdness of modern culture, the publication of his real identity has only made him more popular!
CONVENTION CENTERS: San Diego is kicking homeless citizens out of its Convention Center so they can house some of the thousands of illegal migrant teens flooding across our southern border in the wake of FAUXTUS suspending all of Trump’s successful border control policies. [1:43]
CAPITOL HILL: Workers spent the weekend removing most of the fencing surrounding the U.S. Capitol, but the Capitol building and Senate offices will remain closed to the public until further notice.
Republican Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs, leader of the House Freedom Caucus, complained, “No constituents can come and see us. No groups or organizations can come and see us. Nobody can sit in the gallery and watch us. They’re not having regular committee hearings. They’re cramming all this stuff through.“
CHICOMS: They have long wanted to control the lucrative South China Sea. Under Trump, they didn’t dare push the issue. Two months after FAUXTUS is inaugurated, there are 220 Chinese war ships tooling around in disputed waters.
FAUXTUS APPROVAL: He recently claimed to be the most popular president ever. It’s time he checked out of the White House and into a residential facility.
MARRIAGE: Cambridge has become the second city in Massachusetts to give relationships involving more than two people the same rights as married couples.
1 Timothy 4:1-3 says that in the end times, they will forbid people to marry. I have often thought that the expansion of the definition of marriage is the slippery slope that will result in this outcome. The more types of relationships that get defined as “marriage”, the less meaning the concept of “marriage” becomes.
PEAK STUPID: The Washington Post published an article arguing that the current surge of migrants at the border is just the usual “seasonal increase.” The article included the graphic above … which shows that the current surge of migrants at the border is well ABOVE previous years. (2021 is the short blue line.)
POUNCING: You’ve probably heard about the terrible shooting spree in Boulder that left ten people dead. As per usual, Leftists leapt to promote their gun-grabbing hatred of Deplorables.
When news hit that the shooter was an Arab, they followed up with a bunch of tweets about how cops must’ve thought he was White, since they only shot him in the leg instead of killing him, like fershure they would’ve done if he had been Brown or Black! Plus, it’s RAAACIST to mention his race.
REED: We won’t have to primary our congressman after all. He’s resigning after admitting to and apologizing for groping a female lobbyist in a bar in 2017. He says the incident occurred when he was struggling with an alcohol addiction, for which he later received treatment.
REPARATIONS: On Monday, the city council of Evanston (“Most Liberal Town in America”) Illinois approved the first payments in theirs, the first reparations program in the U.S.
Blacks who apply must be able to prove they are descended from Black Africans, must have been residents of Evanston between 1919-1969, or that person’s direct descendant, or have experienced housing discrimination due to the city’s policies or practices after 1969.
WOKE-ISM: Woke-ism (aka, political correctness, critical race theory, identity politics, intersectionality, and successor ideology) is a far-left phenomenon whereby tyrannical crazy persons attempt to crush out of existence people and things they deem unacceptable. It has cost real people their reputations and their livelihoods, and it is impoverishing our history and our culture.
Most recently, it has been responsible for condemning Mr. Potato Head, Pepe LePew, and Dr. Seuss. But we have been fighting back. In the case of Dr. Seuss, we responded to the tyrannical left by buying a LOT of Dr. Seuss books. In the first week after the controversy erupted, Amazon sold sold 1.2 million Dr. Seuss books, more than four times the number sold the week before.
James Pinkerton writes, “When the left is caught overdoing its wokeness, it attempts, AOC-style, to stymie the criticism by mocking the critics. At such moments, the new party line then becomes, ‘Those silly right-wingers, look what they’re worried about now. Don’t they have anything better to worry about?‘ And the answer is that rightists do have better things to worry about, and yet sometimes, it’s necessary to drop everything and come to the defense of history and tradition.”
“As the late Andrew Breitbart always said, ‘Politics is downstream from culture.’ That is, today’s cultural fight is tomorrow’s political fight.”
BLM: The FBI has arrested Sir Maejor Page (32) for misappropriating $200,000 in donations he solicited through Facebook on behalf of Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta. He founded the group in 2016. The FB page pledged to use donations “for George Floyd” but instead he used the money for his own benefit, purchasing everything from tailored suits to a house.
BORDER: While continuing to blame the “not a border crisis” on Trump, the “We remain committed to transparency” FAUXTUS administration refuses to allow ANY reporters or lawyers (even the ones charged with oversight) into their over-crowded detention facilities.
A source from inside the facility told Project Veritas, “These photos were taken within the last few days. There are eight pods with eight cells each in the facility. At any given moment there are an average of 3,000 people in custody here.”
“They [illegal immigrants] are separated by age or physical size depending on room. Fifty were COVID positive in these cells over the last few days. There have been multiple sexual assaults, normal assaults and daily medical emergencies.”
A new Project Veritas insider working within the Department of Homeland Security has leaked documents warning that yet another Central American-based caravan is headed to the U.S. border.
CIGNA: One of the nation’s largest health insurance providers has embedded critical race theory into its operation.
Black Lives Matter attire is specifically welcomed in the office and, following the death of George Floyd last May, the company held mandatory town halls, which one employee described as giant white guilt events. Not explicit, but strongly suggested by the employee lesson material, pro-family, anti-abortion, and Christian attire are not.
The company has made it known that white men are not desirable hires. Some employees at Cigna say the internal policy of explicit quotas means positions are left open for inordinate periods of time. Apparently, being “woke” is more important than providing the services customers pay for.
HISTORIC: The first member of my gender to be sworn in to the nation’s highest office will be a woman who was such a terrible candidate that she was forced to drop out of the race for her party’s nomination two full months before the first primary.
INSPIRATION: But all the lies and slander they filled the airwaves with 24/7 for years about Trump … oh wait. Maybe inspiring assassins was the point. Never mind.
NYC: Soooo …. they’re defunding and down-sizing the police force, but the Worst Mayor in the World thinks cops don’t have enough to do?
PEAK STUPID: Democrats claim to “follow the science” … but scientists tell us the COVID-19 virus needs to be inhaled in a concentrated dose. The virus emitted by any pre-symptomatic, contagious roller coaster screamer would be instantly dispersed by the speed of the coaster itself. And then it would be destroyed by the UV rays of the sun.
PROJECT VERITAS: Project Veritas won a major victory against the New York Times this week in a defamation case with potentially wide reach.
In a 16-page decision, New York Supreme Court Justice Charles Wood ruled against the newspaper’s motion to dismiss and found that Project Veritas had shown sufficient evidence that the New York Times might have been motivated by “actual malice” and acted with “reckless disregard” in several articles written by Maggie Astor and Tiffany Hsu.
The decision will allow Project Veritas access to discovery which can be extremely difficult for a news organization.
RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS: On August 8, 1982, a line drive foul ball hits a four year old boy in the head at Fenway. Jim Rice, realizing in a flash that it would take EMTs too long to arrive and cut through the crowd, sprang from the dugout and scooped up the boy. He laid the boy gently on the dugout floor, where the Red Sox medical team began to treat him.
When the boy arrived at the hospital 30 minutes later, doctors said, without a doubt that Jim’s prompt actions saved the boy’s life. Jim returned to the game in a blood-stained uniform. A real badge of courage. After visiting the boy in the hospital, and realizing the family was of modest means, he stopped by the business office and instructed that the bill be sent to him.
GRAMMY: Buzz went on his first Scout outing (an orienteering hike) without a parent along. Blossom’s mom is the troop leader. She and the troopers are wonderful with him.
Senators visited the border and called conditions there “stunning,” “alarming, and “a humanitarian crisis.
While White House officials blame the crisis on the Trump administration, the migrants themselves say it was definitely Biden that made them think they could come and stay without consequences.
The White House is refusing journalists access to border facilities, citing privacy and coronavirus concerns. (Translation: We said we’d be transparent, but we meant it the way Obama meant it, which means totally not transparent.)
FAUXTUS says he has no plans to visit the border. He’s too busy napping and pimping PORKULUS, which he already signed into law. Why does a politician need to promote a spending bill that has already passed? It’s not like Obamacare, that required some degree of compliance. This is going to happen regardless of how much we oppose it.
CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE: A restaurant owner in Michigan was arrested on Friday for defying state CCP virus pandemic restrictions and ignoring a court order. The judge said she was being “selfish” for opening to indoor dining and not enforcing capacity limits or mask-wearing rules.
The 55-year-old had fled communism in her home country of Poland in 1983 and arrived in America in 1988. She became a citizen of the United States in 1992 and opened her business in Michigan as she worked toward achieving the American dream.
“We the people, small business owners, like I told you, have to fight. I will fight for freedom [for] the American people. And I encourage everyone, business owners, other people stand up and fight for your freedom before it’s going to be taken away.”
Meanwhile, in Florida, Gov. DeSantis promises Florida will never require vaccine passports.
MEDIA: CLICK https://fb.watch/4n3nd96Q3I/ [4:11] to hear Judge Jeanine on the double standard. Tomi Lahren predicts FAUXTUS will be gone within 6 months. I’m thinking sooner.
PEAK STUPID: Some California chick started a GoFundMe page to help Meghan and her whipped hubby pay down the mortgage on their $14 million nine-bedroom, 16-bathroom mansion in Montecito, California.
She claims she honestly felt sorry for them after Harry told Oprah, “My family literally cut me off financially, and I had to afford security for us.” Mind you, he inherited $13 million from his mother, but whatever.
I can’t decide who is dumber … her or the two people who donated to the effort, which netted a whopping $110. The page has been taken down and I’m curious what happened to the donations.
PURITY PLEDGE: Former federal prosecutor, Glenn Kirschner, has launched a campaign to force businesses to sign a pledge affirming that the election of Joseph R. Biden and Kamala Harris was free, fair and legitimate.
“What we’re trying to do is force companies’ hands so they can’t be agnostic,” Kirschner said.
Dubya and the GOP never did anything even remotely similar to this … and the Dems STILL bitch that Republicans stole the 2000 election.
RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS: This bench in Lakeside Park in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, is dedicated to Betty Caldwell. Her husband, Bud, visits her memorial every day, regardless of the weather, and brings her daisies, her favorite flower.
When two park workers noticed his daily ritual and that snow sometimes forced Bud to stay in his car and visit from a distance, they took it upon themselves to ensure that the path to that bench was always shoveled.
SYSTEMIC RACISM: WARNING: I do NOT recommend you watch the video. In it, Larry Elder demonstrates that late night talk show hosts are whiter than CPAC. [13:42]
He also demonstrates they are a nasty, foul-mouthed, and unfunny bunch of hateful a&&hats. I watched about 2/3 and now I really want to go take a shower.
Is there anyone, anywhere doing stand up comedy about Biden that is even remotely as vicious as what every single major television broadcast network pumped out night after night about Trump?
GRAMMY NOTES: This is me. And Mama Buzz. She not only pauses to appreciate a beautifully written sentence, but gets her phone out to send me a photo of it. 🙂
ABORTION: And in ASL, the sign for abortion is “baby” plus “throw away.”
ASSISTED SUICIDE: [2:16] – Canada just passed a law expanding doctor-assisted suicide to people who are not terminally ill, including those with mental illnesses.
BORDER: By undoing former President Donald Trump’s border initiatives, FAUXTUS has set off a new surge of illegals flooding across our southern border. Thousands of them are unaccompanied children. A great many are COVID-positive. One way they’re dealing with the overflow is to literally dump people into communities.
The mayor of one of these places, Gila Bend, Arizona, says the FAUXTUS administration has left his city “completely in the dark.” They don’t even warn the city about how many are coming or what their health status is.
“As of the 2nd [of March], Border Patrol advised us they’re basically going to drop people off here and [say] ‘They’re your problem.’ … We can barely afford to take care of the people that we have here in our community now. [And] I’ve got a lot of seniors and elders here [who] are very susceptible to COVID,” he said.
BRAVE NEW WORLD: A group of biology researchers in Israel have grown a mouse embryo in an artificial womb for as long as 11 or 12 days, about half the animal’s natural gestation period.
Dr. Jacob Hanna, the lead scientist on the team said he hoped his research will allow scientists to grow human embryos, which he would dispose of at 12-weeks. He sounds excited about the possibility of studying a human pregnancy in vitro and apparently has no moral qualms about creating and then ending human lives in his lab.
Slimers are blaming his feebleness on “wind” that somehow didn’t ruffle his hair. I seem to remember they (and BIDEN) mocked then-President Trump for walking slowly down a slippery metal ramp in leather soled shoes.
Dearest and I are thinking maybe they’re letting him ramble and mumble and fall to prepare for the 25th Amendment coup they planned way back when they HAD to keep Bernie from winning the nomination. Bernie may agree with them on many issues, but he’s actually got convictions and the PTBs definitely don’t want THAT in the White House.
SIN SICK: FAUXTUS has issued an executive order establishing a new White House Gender Policy Council that will promote abortion and gender ideology throughout all government agencies.
SPIRIT AIRLINES: The parents of a non-verbal 4-year-old autistic boy were shocked and angered when a Spirit Airlines staffer refused to honor the boy’s medical mask exemption and allow them to board their flight. They say they have flown on Spirit before without a problem.
CLICK https://twitter.com/IAMJADEJACKSON/status/1371624829661687808 [:53] to watch the boy’s mother talk about the experience. Buzz is also non-verbal and I’ve seen freak out like this boy does in the video. Thankfully, he will wear a mask, though they have to carry extras, because he chews on them and gets them soaking wet.
VACCINE: Despite the COVID-19 vaccine being voluntary under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), unvaccinated service members at Altus Air Force Base in Oklahoma are being subjected to punitive restrictions.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Please be sure to read the VACCINE report at the bottom AND download, print, and study the document. It’s got the best COVID-19 information I’ve seen to date. It’s well written and, at ten pages, too much to condense. Just please do it.
ABORTION: Xavier Becerra, the extreme pro-abortion attorney general from California who is currently prosecuting undercover pro-life journalists, has been confirmed 50-49 as secretary for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), though he has no experience in the health care sector.
Republican Susan Collins of Maine joined all the Democrats, including two who claim to be pro-life – Senator Bob Casey of Pennsylvania and Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia.
Catholic Vote says, “Xavier Becerra’s confirmation as Secretary of Health and Human Services poses a clear and present danger for Catholics and all people of faith. Given his record of aggressive hostility to free speech, health care freedom, and the traditional values of marriage, family, and the sanctity of life, Americans must be prepared for what is coming.
“Becerra is a culture warrior and extreme left-wing ideologue who repeatedly trampled on our most fundamental constitutional rights. We can only assume Becerra’s clear contempt for religious freedom will continue in his new role. It is only a matter of time before he targets the Little Sisters of the Poor again, strips doctors and religious institutions of conscience rights, and mandates other harmful policies that assault core freedoms cherished by people of faith. Every Senator who voted in favor of this confirmation is now responsible for the radical policies likely to come out of HHS during Becerra’s tenure — and voters must hold them accountable.”
CHRISSYtheHELPFUL: Bob, our wonderful behind-the-scenes PN gardener, posted this in yesterday’s comment section. I wanted to share it with my reply for the benefit of all y’all.
She wrote, “I got another warning from FB for supposedly posting ‘false information.’ This is the ‘information’ that prompted the warning. Can anyone tell me what the false information is? I’m mystified.”
I replied, “Hmm … according to the Left’s Hypocritical Dictionary, everything we say has to be LITERALLY, SPECIFICALLY, AND 100% FACTUAL* and it is NOT TRUE (FB wrist slap) that schools are all closed (even though mostly Democrat public schools are) and it is NOT TRUE (FB time out!) that our border is 100% open (because Trump’s Big Beautiful Wall is still there). *Everything they say can be a totally invented, slanderous lie, but since they MEAN WELL, it’s okay. I hope this helps. If you ever need help packing for re-education camp, let me know.”
CORRUPTING KIDS: The founders of Drag Queen Hour have stated explicitly that their efforts to get drag queens reading to pre-schoolers at library story times is specifically intended to promote gender fluidity.
These people claim to be providing innocent entertainment, while tweeting out pedophile slogans like “Love Has No Age” and calling themselves by disgusting names like “Glitter Hole” and “Flowjob.” In Texas, one of the drag queens invited to a library had a record for sexual assault against an eight-year-old. And now there’s this.
Brett Blomme (picture) is a 38-year-old man who has adopted two children with his husband. Blomme has served as president of a Milwaukee LGBT group and sponsored Drag Queen Story Hour events. He is also a Children’s Court Judge.
Blomme was recently arrested for possession of child pornography, including 27 videos and pictures of the sexual abuse of children. His two adopted children are not alleged to be part of the abuse and will likely be placed elsewhere by Child Protective Services.
FACT CHECK: If Donald J. Trump had released all these minors this way, they would have been in IMMEDIATE AND DEADLY DANGER, which would no doubt be yet another reason to impeach him. BUT, since it was kindly, compassionate Uncle Joe who is doing it, then we can be 100% sure that their futures will be filled with cotton candy clouds and unicorn dreams.
FAKEBOOK: The “Independent [of common sense] Fact Checkers” have out-done their own stupidity.
The graphic above got plastered with a “Missing Context” message, because the article linked below says Mr. Potato Head ended up not being canceled and only six of Dr. Seuss’ books have been removed from libraries and will not be reprinted.
Plus, BIDEN DIDN’T DO IT. This graphic doesn’t say it, but a bunch of others do. One I enjoyed said, “Trump took down ISIS. Biden took down Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head.”
I’m not going to belabor why this is so dumb, because I think you, my beloved readers, are not so dumb. (But if you’re not sure, scroll up and read “ChrissytheHelpful.”)
FLORIDA: Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-FL, denounced critical race theory and said students in Florida would learn about “foundational principles” rather than critical race theory. “Let me be clear, there’s no room in our classrooms for things like critical race theory. Teaching kids to hate their country and to hate each other is not worth one red cent of taxpayer money.“
RACIAL HATE CRIMES: On Tuesday, some loser who happens to be Caucasian shot up three Atlanta-area spas and massage parlors, killing eight people. Six of the victims were Asian women, leading Democrats to immediately pounce on White Supremacy as the cause and Donald Trump as the instigator.
The shooter says the shooting had nothing to do with race, but hey, who gives a crap what HE thinks? Also, never mind that according to the most recent and complete data from the U.S. Department of Justice, there were 182,230 violent incidents against Asians here in America in 2018. The most common race of the perpetrators was Black (27.5%), with Whites (24.1%) and Asians (24.1%) tied.
RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS: Last month, a Michigan high school basketball player noticed that a player from another school did not have basketball shoes, he gave the kid his LeBron Nike’s, which were used but still in great condition. The boy himself had just gotten a new pair of basketball shoes and said, “I just remember being young and not being able to afford nicer shoes for basketball and I know how bad it sucked. Basketball shoes are a necessity. I’ve rolled a lot of ankles not wearing the right shoes for the right things.”
He’s not kidding about the right shoes. I used to play racquetball and decided to invest in a pricey pair of cross-trainers. Shortly after, I side stepped awkwardly and felt my ankle start to roll, but the reinforced side of the shoe stopped my foot before I had hyper-extended and injured anything. I was spared the pain and lost mobility of an actual injury and, because the shoes had cost less than a single trip the ER for x-rays, they more than paid for themselves in that one moment.
VACCINE: One day after Kenya received its first shipment of 1 million vaccines, the Kenya Catholic Doctors’ Association (KCDA) issued a ten page statement explaining why they recommend people not get the vaccine. The graphic above is an excerpt from the cover letter. The full document is available at the second link below.
ACADEMIC STANDARDS: Lowering them fulfills the Globalist Elites’ desire to keep poor minorities on their welfare plantations. You can bet the elite private schools their kids attend haven’t lowered their standards.
COVID IMMUNITY: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/whitehousebrief/videos/949003395904588 [6:22] to hear Sen. Rand Paul shred Dr. Anthony Fauci. Sen. Paul has the studies to back up his claims and justify his questions; Dr. Fauci just sneers, rolls his eyes, and sputters a lot.
Fauci’s unsubstantiated claims about the dangers of a variant strain ignore at least one thing I’ve read several times, which is that previous infections with other coronavirus strains appears to confer at least partial immunity from COVID-19. So why wouldn’t immunity from “wild” COVID-19 confer at least partial immunity from a variant?
Also, Paul makes a very valid point that should be shouted from the roof tops. If you want people to get vaccinated AND make vaccine doses go further, then ADVERTISE these two things:
If you have been vaccinated, you don’t need to wear a mask.
If you have recovered from COVID-19, you don’t need to get vaccinated or wear a mask.
H-DAY: The Swedes used to drive on the left side of the road, like the Brits. But most of continental Europe drove on the right side. Even worse, most Swedes drove cars designed for right-side driving. These two factors were believed to be behind a sharp rise in traffic accidents as more Swedes bought cars. So the decision was made to switch sides.
Sunday, September 3, 1967 was designated Högertrafikomläggningen (right-hand traffic diversion) or Dagen H (H-Day) when all traffic would switch from left to right. It took a full year to prepare for the massive effort required to move road signs, repaint road markings, relocate bus stops and traffic lights, and redesign intersections, bicycle lanes and one-way streets. At the time, it was the biggest infrastructure project Sweden had ever seen.
On Monday after H-Day, as Swedes took to the right side of the roads for the first time, only 157 minor traffic accidents were reported in the whole country, which was slightly less than average for a typical Monday. Nobody died, which a Swedish historian notes rather disappointed the journalists from the BBC.
HOMEOPATHY: I can’t say as how the American Medical Association invented cancel culture, but they surely did use it aggressively to squash anything they disapproved of! The article linked below is very interesting. Some excerpts:
“In 1855 the AMA established a code of ethics which asserted that orthodox physicians would lose their membership in the A.M.A. if they even consulted with a homeopath.”
“At a time in American medicine when physicians would very rarely, if ever, be reprimanded by fellow physicians, the ethical code on consorting with homeopaths was regularly enforced. One Connecticut physician was expelled from his local medical society for consulting with a homeopath–his wife. … Joseph K. Barnes, the Surgeon General of the United States, was denounced for aiding in the treatment of Secretary of State William Seward on the night he was stabbed and Lincoln was shot, simply because Seward’s personal physician was a homeopath.”
I have read before that the A.M.A. had a similar hate on for chiropractic, something that I experience in the 1980s, but which has somehow disappeared. I asked my chiropractor about it and he said, “Yeah, they send all their pain patients to us now, because they can’t do anything for them.”
NEWSMAX: CLICK https://fb.watch/4jliUzusxa/ [7:58] to see a Newsmax report on its skyrocketing viewership and Bill O’Reilly’s sadly dishonest report. I respected O’Reilly until I read his book about Jesus. He used out-of-date resources and totally ignored the best material.
I also found an MSN report claiming that Newsmax has tanked, but the data presented was very confusing to me. As far as I could figure, they ignored web-based viewership and also compared raw numbers of specific demographics, rather than audience shares, during a period when cable viewership fell across the board.
RUSH LIMBAUGH: Dan Bongino is taking over Rush’s radio slot. “The Dan Bongino Show” is set to launch on May 24, and will air 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. ET nationwide Monday-Friday.
SAINT OF THE DAY: “St. Joseph was called by God to serve the person and mission of Jesus directly through the exercise of his fatherhood. It is precisely in this way that, as the Church’s Liturgy teaches, he ‘cooperated in the fullness of time in the great mystery of salvation’ and is truly a ‘minister of salvation.‘” — Saint John Paul II’s apostolic exhortation on Saint Joseph, Redemptoris Custos
