SCOTUS

In a very unusual (illegal?) move, the Supreme’s draft opinion to overturn Roe v Wade was leaked to Politico.

Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz told Sean Hannity it was likely a liberal clerk or far-left attorney trying to change the outcome. Josh Hawley agreed: “Plainly meant to corrupt the process.”

Chief Justice Roberts has called for an investigation into the source. “To the extent this betrayal of the confidences of the Court was intended to undermine the integrity of our operations, it will not succeed,” adding that the “work of the Court will not be affected in any way.”

Overturning Roe would not make abortion illegal; it would merely return to the states the right to legislate it. Newsmax (below) reports on what will happen state-by-state if SCOTUS follows through on this.

Not The Bee (below) shares ten important excerpts from the leaked draft.

Libs of TikTok did some mashups of pro-aborts having melt downs over the idea that some states may want to protect the rights of the unborn. The link is below. I chose not to watch them.

CNN’s “senior legal analyst” Laura Coates hysterically cited the famous slippery slope that Libs assured us does not exist to predict that, “If Roe is overturned, SCOTUS might next ban “interstate travel” & “same sex marriage, including same sex relationships” next.”

Jerknalist Julia Ioffe tweeted, “A reminder: Two presidents who became president despite losing the popular vote appointed five of nine Supreme Court nominees, including Samuel Alito, who wrote yesterday’s leaked draft opinion.” This inspired some educational snark about how there is no such thing as a popular vote for POTUS. My favorite is, “Apparently, the only Civics you know are made by Honda.”

And speaking of needing a Civics lesson, Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal said on CNN, “These Justices are acting like this is somehow something that they have the right to change. They do not have the right to change this.” She thinks the Supreme Court does not have the right to overturn a Supreme Court decision. And she has a vote in Congress. Oy vey.

Then there is Rep. Eric “Farting Fang Banger” Swalwell, that paragon of moral virtue, who tweeted his deep concern that “Republicans won’t stop with banning abortion. They want to ban interracial marriage.” I’m not sure what reality he lives in, but it isn’t the one I live in. My favorite response was, “Clarence Thomas’s wife would like a word… “

The Calling of the Apostles Peter and Andrew by Duccio di Buoninsegna (1308-1311)

ANTIFA: While yapping about “the workers’ movement,” ANTIFA thugs assaulted a journalist and maced a preacher. Click the link to see video clips.

APPLE AIR TAG: [2:42] – I once stalked a creep who was following my pre-teen daughter as she moved around the library. When he got close enough to touch, I just bulled my way between them and acted like I rudely needed something on that shelf and kept myself right there until he wanted off. Then I reported him to the staff. That happened 30 years ago and I still get the creeps thinking about it. This air tag thing is like that … on steroids.

BETTE MIDLER: She feels free to slander Christians, because our religious leader told us to “turn the other cheek.” She wouldn’t dare actually name or depict the world religion that actually executes people for being gay, because, you know, those people get really nasty towards people who slander (by which I mean tell the truth) about their religious leader’s teachings.

Don’t you just love Bette’s cheery “I support Ukraine” sunflower gravatar? I’m guessing she doesn’t know that Ukraine is 71% Christian. My favorite tweet response to her liberal-religious hatred: “As a lifelong Catholic I can confirm that my religion never taught me to hate anyone. Quite the opposite. Catholic Charities is one of the most generous and far reaching organizations around the world. Now do radical Islam and its views on homosexuality.”

BHO: Tulsi Gabbard pointed out the latest evidence that Barack is the shadow president who is actually running the show. “Biden is just a front man. Obama, April 21: social media censors ‘don’t go far enough,’ so the government needs to step in to do the job. Six days later, Homeland Security rolls out the ‘Ministry of Truth’ (aka Disinformation Governance Board).”

Best tweet response: “We, for one, welcome our new government overlords. And we are still waiting for the suggestion (from Obama?) on what Biden’s daily job approval % should be tomorrow morning. If we don’t hear anything then we’ll stick with our traditional overnight polling. Forward, Comrades.” – Rasmussen Reports

CALIFORNIA: I guess those rolling brown and black outs weren’t too popular with voters.

CNN: This article is total b.s. The lede sneers at the “alt right”, then para 2 says, “according to a recent study by David Ley, Justin Lehmiller, and the writer Dan Savage, acting on cuckolding fantasies can be a largely positive experience for many couples.”

“Cuckolding (also known as troilism) is a sexual interest in which one obtains sexual arousal from the experience of a romantic partner engaging in sexual activity with someone else.”

And, of course, the photo is of a heterosexual couple. But I clicked on the link to the study report (below). This is from the abstract.

“The present study investigated fantasies about and experiences with cuckolding in a large and diverse sample of predominately gay-identified men (N = 580). …This study … suggests that gay men who act on their cuckolding fantasies tend to report positive experiences; however, the likelihood of reporting positive outcomes appears to depend upon one’s personality and attachment style.”

So, CNN wants you to believe that “The Science” says your marriage will improve if you engage in extramarital sex. But the actual study looked solely at 580 gay men. There was no mention at all about what kind of relationships these men were in or what effect cheating had on these relationships.

The First Joyful Mystery: The Annunciation by CBC, 2022

EASTER MEDITATION: “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.” – 1 John 5:14-15. Today, let us search our hearts to find and repent of anything that deters us from hearing what he asks and responding with yes.

ELITIST SCHMUCKS: The White House Correspondents Dinner was a night of the unmasked elite mocking Americans and taking potshots at Republicans while being served by masked wait staff.

Mike LaChance tweeted, “At his inauguration, Biden said he wanted unity. If he had really tried for it, it would have earned him a lot of good will. Instead, he has insulted and divided at every opportunity. He is the same ‘put y’all back in chains’ jerk he always was.”

HUNTER: [3:43] – Maria Bartiromo reports on the investigation into the Biden crime family.

LEVINE: Assistant Secretary of Health Dr. Rachel Levine, a man who claims to be a woman, told NPR on Saturday that there is “no argument” among pediatricians “about the value and the importance of gender-affirming care.” Levine also dismissed the scientific arguments against the LGBTQ agenda for children: “The language of medicine and science is being used to drive people to suicide,” he said.

MINISTRY OF TRUTH: Yes.

PARENTAL RIGHTS: A recent survey showed massive support for anti-groomer laws such as Florida’s Parental Rights in Education law. Seventy percent said they support such laws, 61% said they strongly support them. Less than a quarter, 23 percent, said they oppose such measures, and of those, 11 percent “strongly” oppose. The survey has an MOE of +/- 3.46.

PAXLOVID: On Friday, Pfizer announced that a large, late-stage trial found that its COVID-19 antiviral drug failed to prevent symptomatic infection of people living with a person who has the disease.

S&G: Discovery+ is coming out with a new show, “Generation Drag,” which documents the lives of five teen drag queens on their drag journey.

Best tweet: “We’ve come a long way. From TV shows promoting wise, intelligent people, then ordinary people, just to finish up promoting people with mental disorders. Don’t want to see what comes next.”

GRAMMY NOTES: [2:11] – I remember seeing this man on t.v. and LOVING his comedy!

WARNING: NO food or drink while watching this one!!

Happy May Day!

ARIZONA: Gov. Ducey has signed into law two bills to protect religious freedom during emergencies. One makes churches and other faith-based institutions “essential”, while the other mandates that health care facilities allow visits by clergy to residents who have requested it.

BILL MAHER: CLICK https://twitter.com/JoelWBerry/status/1520254034527272961 [2:08] to hear this Liberal chastise Twitter as a failure and give a somewhat snarky thumbs up to Babylon Bee.

I could’ve done without his writing off all religion as “satire”, especially since his idiot audience thought it was funny. These people need some serious prayer directed at them!

BILLIONAIRES: Lefties are in an uproar over Elon buying Twitter, but I haven’t heard them squawk about the $50 million the uber rich lib, Warren Buffett, has given to “Catholics for Choice.”

Catholic Vote calls C4C “a pro-abortion extremist group with a long history of acts of hatred and sacrilege against the Catholic Church.”

BOOK SALES: During Trump’s first 18 months, prominent books about him outsold similar books about Biden by 10 to 1.

EASTER MEDITATION: The Holy Rosary is considered a perfect prayer because within it lies the awesome story of our salvation.

ELON MUSK: CLICK https://rumble.com/v12wtmt-elon-musk-continues-trolling-liberals-after-twitter-purchase.html [2:12] for Maria Bartiromo’s report.

HYPOCRITE: On Friday, mega-rich writer Stephen King tweeted up a self-owning, virtue signal storm about the “greedy heads” of “millionaire oil fat cats” and their “G*damn corporation” that are apparently single-handedly responsible for the high cost of gas and heating oil.

I’m guessing his slam on corporate greed does not extend to the corporations that sell his books for $30 (hardback) or $15 (electronic). He’s pissed about supposedly obscene profits raked in by oil and gas, but once those electronic books have been digitized, there is virtually no cost to the vendors. Talk about obscene profit!

MIDTERMS: A new NPR/Marist poll shows Hispanics and parents with children under 18 favoring Republican candidates for Congress by large margins. Hispanic: GOP 52% vs. Dem 39%. Parents: GOP 60% vs. Dem 39% margin.

A new Quinnipiac University poll shows inflation and immigration are the top two concerns for voters.

MISSISSIPPI: Gov. Reeves has signed into law a bill that prohibits COVID-19 vaccine mandates in government agencies, public universities, and both public and private schools. It also requires private employers to recognize “a sincerely held religious objection” to a vaccine requirement.

S&G: [13:34] – This kid isn’t graceful or talented or intelligent or articulate. He’s just a boy who dresses up like a highly sexualized female and flounces around, which is all most drag queens seem to do as well. My girls used to do exactly the same dorky stuff when they were his age. It was kinda cute, if you were a really doting relative or, you know, blind. I couldn’t watch the whole thing.

TEXAS: The state will be reallocating $495 million from various state agencies to fund deployment of the Texas National Guard along the U.S.-Mexico border.

YES, MASSAH: American Express has adopted an “Anti-Racism Initiative.” White employees have been subjected to training sessions in which they were told they need to identify the privileges or advantages they have and defer to members of “marginalized groups.”

DENMARK: Denmark has become the first country to halt its COVID vaccination program, saying that the virus has been brought under control.

FAUXTUS: While criticizing Donald Trump on Tuesday, President Hypocrite tweeted, “My Dad used to say there’s no greater sin than the abuse of power. Whether it’s an officer bloodying a peaceful protester or a President defending him with a conspiracy theory he saw on TV. I’m a Catholic – just like Martin. Our faith says that we can’t accept either.”

“The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself, ‘O God, I thank you that I am not like … this tax collector.’” – Luke 9:11

FLORIDA: The governor’s office says the new law “will strengthen election security measures by requiring voter rolls to be annually reviewed and updated, strengthening ID requirements, establishing the Office of Election Crimes and Security to investigate election law violations, and increasing penalties for violations of election laws.”

FRAUD: Sameday Health and its CEO, Felix Huettenbach, have agreed to pay a $22.5 million settlement after sending hundreds of COVID test results to customers without having actually run the tests. The company also overcharged insurance companies for bogus medical consultations that either never happened or were just a few minutes long.

GEORGIA: Gov. Kemp has signed a bill that will allow the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) to investigate voter fraud and election crimes. Previously, only the Secretary of State could do that. Kemp has been under fire, especially from Donald Trump, since he certified the state’s election results without first investigating multiple fraud claims.

MATT WALSH: At 1:25 pm on Friday, April 29, Matt Walsh’s children’s book was THE best selling book at Amazon. His adult book, “What Is a Woman?: One Man’s Journey to Answer the Question of a Generation” was at 21.

CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=4874557435988658 [3:38] to hear Michael Knowles report on Amazon’s failed efforts to suppress Walsh’s books. One of the nutty comments was that Walsh’s book is about bullying gender diverse 3-5 year olds into committing suicide.

MINISTRY of TRUTH: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=1079892002723529 [15:41] to hear Dan Bongino report on the Biden administration’s plan to create a “Disinformation Governance Board” to quash what the administration deems to be false information posted online. If that sounds Orwellian, it’s because it is.

POLITICIZING PUBLIC HEALTH: A new GAO report addresses political interference in scientific decision-making are addressed at CDC, FDA, NIH and the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR). Employees who witnessed such interference did not report either because they didn’t know how, they feared retaliation, or they thought leadership already knew about it. I’m guessing that last one was true and that they not only knew, but were complicit.

RHODE ISLAND: Rhode Island parents are outraged about a Democrat-backed bill that would promote teaching children about “pleasure based sexual relations” beginning in sixth grade. “Teachings would recognize pleasure based sexual relations, different sexual orientations and be inclusive of same-sex relationships,” the legislation reads.

When you add in the “better abstain from hetero sex cuz it can get you pregnant” component, this reads a whole lot like an endorsement of homosexuality.

TWITTER: The company told staff they have at least six months of job security before Elon Musk takes control of the company. IOW, they’re getting a lot more lead time to find new jobs than the XL Pipeline and border wall workers got.

Also, best tweet today – “All of the Libs who own a Tesla are suddenly realizing they helped Elon Musk buy Twitter.” – Juanita Broaddrick

In other news, an Austin-area landowner has offered Musk 100 acres of land for free if he will use it to move Twitter’s headquarters from California to Texas. I’m thinking the offer would be hugely tempting, given how California is at the bottom while Texas is at the top of the States Friendly to Businesses list.

VAXXX: Complications regarding blood clots from AstraZenecas’s COVID-19 shot have been so serious that at least nine countries had pulled the brand from their national COVID jab programs. Among the deaths due to blood clots in the brain have been an 18-year-old woman, a 26-year-old man, and two 30-something mothers.

Also, a new study has found an unsurprising correlation between the launch of Israel’s aggressive ‘rona jab program and an increase in emergency cardiovascular events among people under 40 years of age.

GRAMMY NOTES: As a permanent absentee voter, I just got a notice that pleased me greatly! New York has passed a law making it impossible for someone to vote in person if they’ve had an absentee ballot sent to them. Before, someone could show up pretending to be me (no ID in NY!) and THEIR vote would count, while my absentee ballot would be tossed out!

BORDER: A federal judge is blocking the Biden administration’s attempt to terminate Title 42, because states that sued the administration are poised to succeed in their claims that the move violated federal law.

COVID-19: On Tuesday, the CDC’s official count page (graphic) showed just under 81 million had caught COVID-19 – i.e., about 25% of all Americans.

On Tuesday, the CDC published a report showing that about 60% of all Americans have antibodies from a previous COVID-19 infection in their blood.

So, another reason to not trust the CDC, plus more evidence that the virus has been far more widespread and far less deadly than the Left wanted us to know.

FAUXTUS: On Wednesday, Hunter’s Dad hosted the 2022 National and State Teachers of the Year Celebration at the White House. During his remarks, he said that students are “all our children” and are “like yours when they’re in the classroom.” No. They’re not.

Lyin’ Biden also assured them that he knows how hard teaching is, because of the “four years” he worked as a “full professor” at the University of Pennsylvania. This is at least the third time he’s made this preposterous claim.

Between 2017 and 2019, the University of Pennsylvania paid Biden more than $900,000 to serve as what they call a “practice professor.” Although Upenn says the primary activity of a practice professor is teaching, Biden’s service amounted to nothing more than about a dozen public appearances on campus, mostly in big ticketed events.

Click on the last link below to read about what it takes to actually earn the rank of “full professor.”

GENDER-INCLUSIVE BIOLOGY: “A lot of textbooks, a lot of existing teaching will say, well, women produce eggs. Males are more likely to be color-blind. The mother carries the fetus for this many months. And some ways that we can show our support for trans and non-binary students just to clean up that language, be more precise,” Long said. “We can be more accurate and be more inclusive. So I would say, no, it’s not women that produce eggs. It’s ovaries that produce eggs. That’s accurate, that’s precise. We’re acknowledging that not all women produce eggs and also, not all egg producers are women, for example.” – Sam Long, “trans-identifying” high school biology teacher, during a Department of Education training session

HYPOCRITES: “You are not allowed to question the outcome of the 2020 election but they can claim the 2024 election which hasn’t happened yet will be stolen.” – Mike LaChance

ILLINOIS: In Evanston/Skokie School District 65, May is “LGBTQ+ Equity Month.” In preK-8th grade classrooms, they will be studying “identity of self and others, allyship, family structures, vocabulary, gender expression, stereotypes, colors on the intersectional pride flag, and the historical contributions of LGBTQ+ people.”

The district also has special times when they focus on “Latinx” and “Black Lives Matter” issues. I’m guessing that, at no time in their school year, do they learn about the meanings of the colors on the American flag or that the people who founded this great nation, invented and built most of its infrastructure, defended its freedoms, and fought a war to end slavery were majority White.

EASTER MEDITATION: [6:14] – “No matter how many times I examined the body of Saint Charbel. I always found to my amazement that it was intact, free of any decay, and supple as though death had just occurred. What amazed me in particular was the fluid constantly seeping from the body. In my travels I have consulted with proof medicine in Beirut and in various cities across Europe, but none have been able to account for this phenomenon. The phenomenon is truly unique in all of history. If the body were to secrete only three grams of fluid daily (in fact it secretes several times more than that), then in the space of sixty-six years the total weight of the fluid would be 72 kilo-grams, which is considerably more than the weight of the body itself. From a scientific standpoint, this phenomenon admits of no explanation, for the human body contains five liters of blood and other fluids. Based on studies I made so far, I conclude that the body of Saint Charbel remains in a state of perfect preservation, while secreting a mysterious fluid, which I attribute to the intervention of God Himself.” – Georgio Sciukrallah, Lebanese professor of medicine who closely examined the body thirty-four times over a period of seventeen years

EASTER MEDITATION: [:43] – “Then the king will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.’ Then the righteous will answer him and say, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?’ And the king will say to them in reply, ‘Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.’ “- Matt 25:34-40

RIGGED: Meta (i.e., Facebook) CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, spent hundreds of millions of dollars on the 2020 election. Although they characterized their donations as going to non-partisan efforts to promote voter involvement, it actually all went to promote Democrat candidates and Democrat cheating.

A new documentary called “Rigged” exposes the entire plot to help cheat Biden into office. The movie has already been so successful that Zuckerberg and Chan have announced they will not repeat their actions during the 2022 election.

Twitter’s very design enables and encourages dogpiling, and one quote-tweet by a blue-haired gender bender can fill a thread with pure insanity, so it’s nice to have a local coffee shop type of platform like Gab and Truth Social, instead of a crowded night club like Twitter.”

GRAMMY NOTES: [8:06] – The first one was news to me, but the wringer in the second one was the subject of Cullen family lore. My big brother reportedly stuck his hand into the wringer when he was a toddler. When my mother told me about seeing his little hand come through the wringer, I gasped and said, “What did you do?!” She laughed and said, “Wrung him back out … which was stupid, because the thing had an emergency release.” She said he wasn’t hurt, probably because the towels she’d been wringing had been so thick.

The third and fourth ones are part of Dearest’s family lore. His father’s mother worked as a telephone operator for many years and his father owned and often used his twin-reflex camera, for which he had built his own dark room.

Cursive is also a family thing. My mother never learned to print and had difficulty all her life with filling out forms that required printing. Dearest and I, along with our Catholic school educated kids, all learned both printing and cursive. Sadly, today’s educators have decided that cursive is useless, which I think is a real shame.

And speaking of soda fountains … do any of you remember the one Norman Rockwell made famous? Dearest’s home town is in the middle of Rockwell country. When we were engaged, he showed me the soda fountain from the paintings, which I believe was still open for business at that time.

We didn’t have the Encyclopedia Britannica, but I clearly remember when my parents bought us the World Book Encyclopedia. Because of an article on fetal development, I believed for decades that unborn human fetuses went through a period of development during which gill slits formed on the side of the neck, then closed up again. It turns out that this “obvious evidence of evolution” doesn’t exist. The so-called “gill slit” is just a fold.

Our families were the wrong ages to experience panty raids or phone booth stuffing … that I ever heard about! And we didn’t have the money to get new cars until later on. However, we were definitely impacted by the lack of seat belts. My mother’s baby sister was killed in a car accident, when she went through the windshield. If she’d had a seat belt on, she probably would have survived. She left behind a husband and three very young children. Nobody was ever allowed to ride with my mother without buckling up.

The Kind Can

I saw this on Facebook.

“Mom, I hate them.” “Them” being her friends at school.

This is what my 7-year-old confided to me as I was putting her to bed the other night. I could have made light of her hatred, like I’ve done when she tells me she hates broccoli.

I could have gotten caught up in her anger: “Who are these kids upsetting my daughter!?” Instead, I asked her what was going on that her heart hurt so much. Because under anger is usually hurt.

Sure enough, the tears came pouring out as she told me about how her best friend only wanted to play with another girl, and how when she went to find others to play with they told her to go away. This had been happening all week.

“Why doesn’t anybody like me?”

I didn’t have an answer for that, but I did have a thought: It’s time for the Kind Can.

Suddenly I was 8 years old again, a grade 3 student who was having a rough start to the school year. I had a teacher I didn’t like, friendships had shifted, and I couldn’t seem to get along with anyone. I hated going to school.

My mom created a Kind Can. She used a big coffee tin can. In the can went the names of every single one of my classmates. Each morning before school I would pull a name out of the can. That day I had to go out of my way to do something kind for them. Not to have them do something in return.

For no other reason than to do something kind.

It wasn’t easy at first, but my mom encouraged me to keep trying, and helped me think of all the different ways I could show kindness to others. It started to get really fun! And then things shifted.

No longer caught up in my own mind about what others were ‘doing to me’, I was now focused on what I was doing for others. Though there were no expectations of kindness in return, more and more kindness is what I got. I loved going to school!

I told my daughter about the Kind Can and her eyes got that little spark – the one that tells me she’s about to get creative. So yes, she has big plans for just how fancy this can will be – much better than an old tin can she proclaimed!

That’s our project. A Kind Can. A way to create more kindness. A way to keep our hearts open even when they want to close.

CLIMATE: Bjorn Lomborg writes, “The current climate discourse leads to wasteful climate policies, diverting attention and funds from more effective ways to improve the world.”

CONTROL: CLICK https://rumble.com/v1278ae-ny-times-wh-correspondent-says-the-quiet-part-out-loud-about-bidens-mask-ma.html [:18] to hear The New York Times‘s Peter Baker say, out loud, what we on the Right has been saying all along.

COVID LIES: Madhava Setty explains ways the Left deceptively manipulated data to overplay the risk of the virus while dismissing the risk of the vaxxx.

DISNEY: Disney has lost $34 Billion in value since embarking on its pro-LGBTQABCXYZ culture war with Florida.

EASTER MEDITATION: [4:29] – You can read/hear more about Lectio Divina online at numerous sites. I’ve included a few. They mostly reiterate what Father Josh says.

EDUCATION: I think it’s nice of them to make it so clear from the get-go where normal people will not be happy working.

GRAMMAR: A whole lot of Leftie Karens were triggered by Kevin Sorbo’s awesome tweet joke. Among those who didn’t make derogatory remarks about his mental health sneered, “Those aren’t even pronouns, idiot” and “Those are verbs, genius.” It’s fascinating to see how people who flagrantly ignore proper English grammar are suddenly very committed to promoting proper English grammar.

HISTORY: [14:44] – This will remind you of Mr. Peabody’s Improbable History, but it’s actually all true. I found more information on the ‘net, of course. LOL The first link is to a copy of Dexter’s unintelligible best seller and the second is about his home. The latter includes more links.

MASKS: From Babylon Bee – With the recent lifting of mask mandates on airplanes, flight attendants have reported an unexpected benefit: problem customers can now be easily identified by their masks. One explained, “We mark out a map of masked fliers, then assign our most grizzled steward to make regular passes to make sure they’re not mask-splaining to their seat-mates, dripping gobs of hand sanitizer on anyone, or causing any ruckus. Those wearing two or three masks and a face shield are granted special attention, and we generally switch to a man-to-man defense for those passengers.“

RACIST MATH: Florida’s Department of Education published some examples from math books they rejected for being too woke. The graphic is one. There are a few more at either of the links.

AOC: “If there’s one thing you’ve noticed about white nationalists, it’s that they have hands. And something they’ve been doing a lot with their hands lately is sending out secret messages in support of white supremacy. If you see anyone doing any of these hand gestures, you can be certain they are a racist and should report them to the nearest racism reporting facility (usually Twitter).” – Babylon Bee

The ADL article explains what the OK symbol has meant for centuries and how/why it is sometimes now associated with White Power.

CNN+: CLICK https://rumble.com/v11ytmo-lol-brian-stelter-says-its-too-soon-to-tell-if-failed-cnn-is-a-failure.html [:53] to hear Brian Stelter say it’s too soon to say if CNN+ is a failure. My favorite comment: “I find CNN to be very educational. When someone turns it on, I go in the next room and read a book.”

DEMOCRATS: Decrying billionaires and huge corporations getting special privileges and not paying their fair share of taxes. Also Democrats, raging over the Florida legislature ending special protections and tax benefits that Disney has enjoyed for decades.

EASTER MEDITATION: I grabbed these screenshots from a wood turning video as an opportunity for us to meditate on what God can do with our dirty, rooty, good-only-for-firewood selves … IF we are willing to humbly submit to His loving and acutely uncomfortable discipline.

FAUXTUS: They didn’t give Trump one single moment of break, so NO.

EXXON: “The move has made some within the company upset.” I’m guessing a much larger group is quietly cheering.

FREE SPEECH: In 2020, the University of Central Florida adopted a policy that bans “discriminatory harassment,” which included conduct related to someone’s race, ethnicity, religion, age, or sexual orientation. A group called Speech First sued.

On Thursday, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that UCF’s policy likely violates the 1st Amendment by chilling the speech of students who want to advocate against abortion and affirmative action. The decision noted, “It is imperative that colleges and universities toe the constitutional line when monitoring, supervising, and regulating student expression.“

MASK HYPOCRITE: Another Leftie piously virtue signaling about her commitment to public health and safety. Read the archived 2008 article below for Jarrett’s record on health and safety is public housing.

SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter is adopting a policy already in place at Google which refuses advertisers on its site who deny the scientific consensus on climate change. My favorite tweet responses: “Twitter & Google will no longer allow advertisers who deny that cities on the coast of the US will be flooded by the year 2000” and “Mob science consensus doesn’t do the world any favors.”

VFAUXTUS: [1:55] – “One of our highest priorities is sovereignty and territorial integrity.” Just to be perfectly clear, she was talking about Ukraine … not about the United States of America.

WOMEN’S SPORTS: On Friday, the Republican Study Committee formally endorsed H.R. 426, the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, introduced by Rep. Greg Steube. The bill would bar schools that accept federal funds from letting biological males compete against biological females in athletic events designated for women or girls. Of course, it has zero chance of passing in Pelosi’s House, but at least they’re making the stand.

GRAMMY: When the Right to Life Party in New York folded, they sent me a letter recommending I register Republican. My initial reaction to the idea of registering Republican was so visceral. I literally felt sick to my stomach! I had no idea that there was so much prejudice in me toward a party that represents about 40% of the country … including my husband who had been registered R for years!

Anyway, I bit the bullet and did it. And the more I learned about the party and interacted with other Republicans, the happier I have been. I’m kinda grateful for the experience, because it has helped me be less annoyed by and more “pray for them” loving toward those who still have that prejudice lurking deep in their hearts.
