CHAUVIN: Brandon Mitchell, a juror in the trial of former Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin for the killing of George Floyd, failed to disclose that he attended an event attended by Floyd’s relatives last year, raising questions of impartiality.

DISNEY: Disney, the former go-to company celebrating the wonder and innocence of childhood, is now peddling toys and clothing for kids awash in rainbow colors as well as pro-homosexual and pro-transgender messaging.

FACEBOOK: The Facebook Oversight Board that recently upheld the site’s ban on President Donald Trump claims to be an independent body, but it its 20 members have strong ties to George Soros.

“This is a fake court set up by Facebook to allow Facebook to do whatever Facebook wants to do.” – Sen. Josh Hawley [R-MO]

Facebook has also permanently deplatformed Life Site News for publishing “vaccine discouraging information.” LifeSiteNews says they’re not shocked. YouTube already booted them off that platform for failing to adhere to the Left’s approved talking points.

GUN SALES: April was the 16th straight month of record-breaking gun sales.

GEORGE WASHINGTON: Some guy on Reddit decided to make a photorealistic portrait of George Washington as a modern politician.

LIFE: Our culture is so barbaric, we actually debate whether or not it’s okay to rip arms and legs off of tiny humans, or starve them to death, or inject poison into their hearts to kill them. And all before they’re born, when they’re completely defenseless.

LUBBOCK: Last week, voters in Lubbock, Texas (pop. 250,000), approved a ballot measure (62% to 37%) to ban abortion and allow relatives of aborted babies to sue abortion providers. Lubbock becomes the largest city in the United States to declare itself a “sanctuary city for the unborn.”

MEGHAN MARKLE: Piers Morgan compared Markle’s qualification for writing a children’s book about fathers to Bill and Melinda Gates publishing a hypothetical book titled “Why Marriage is for Keeps” the day after announcing they’re getting a divorce.

“Notwithstanding Ms Markle’s seemingly unlimited thirst for committing attention-seeking acts of gargantuan hypocrisy, this seemed beyond parody. But it was real,” he wrote.

OLIGARCHY: [2:35] – This is the video O’Keefe talks about with Get Real Dan. It’s an anthem for everyone who has ever been DEFAMED by the Left.

VACCINES DOT GUM: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/whitehousebrief/videos/464598561267490 [6:45] to see FAUXTUS’ latest mumble fumble don’t ask me stupid questions presser. I stopped listening when he said that people like me are stupid and lazy. Maybe, just maybe, the reason it’s so hard to convince people to get the vaccine is that you haven’t bothered to respect our concerns enough to even listen to them. Or maybe we’re just stupid and lazy and need Big Guy to shake his finger at us. Yup … I really feel like I may just rush out and get that … oh wait, no I don’t.

VAX: In response to the University of Notre Dame requiring vaccination “as a condition of enrollment for the 2021–22 academic year,” Bishop Thomas Paprocki and Notre Dame Law School professor Gerard Bradley sent a letter to The Observer declaring the university’s moral “obligation to respect each person’s right to make their own healthcare decisions, to freely act upon their conscientious convictions and what is genuinely fair to everyone concerned.”

Florida has a new law that regulates the state’s emergency powers if faced with any public health emergency in the future. It also bans vaccine passports and schools requiring COVID-19 vaccines for students.

GRAMMY NOTES: From Mama Buzz – I learned about Blackout Poetry during one of Buzz’s on-line classes. You take a page from a book and pick out some of the words to make something new. Some people just blackout the rest, while other people cover the other words by making a design that relates to the poem. I was inspired! I grabbed a Bible, flipped open to a random page. It happened to be one of my favorite passages! I made a photocopy and this is what I did. Read it as one column. “Miracles will set your heart on faith, hope, and love. Speak encouragement. God never fails. Love is eternal.”

Hostile Takeover

The 45 Communist Goals: In 1964, this list of 45 Communist goals was read into the Congressional Record. It’s overwhelming to read them and realize how far they’ve come. As you look through them, keep in mind that this is from 1964 … because parts of it read like today’s headlines.

The blog linked below posted this in 2011, at which time the author estimated that we were 90% there. Trump slowed it down for four years, but now Biden et al. are barreling toward completion at a frenetic pace.

  1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
  2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
  3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
  4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
  5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
  6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
  7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
  8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
  9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
  10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
  11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
  12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
  13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
  14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
  15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
  16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
  17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
  18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
  19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
  20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.
  21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
  22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
  23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
  24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
  25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
  26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
  27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”
  28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”
  29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
  30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”
  31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the “big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
  32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture–education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
  33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
  34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
  35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
  36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
  37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
  38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
  39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
  40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
  41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
  42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use [“]united force[“] to solve economic, political or social problems.
  43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
  44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
  45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court

The 10 planks of the Communist Manifesto

1. Abolition of private property in land and application of all rents of land to public purpose.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.

6. Centralization of the means of communication and transportation in the hands of the state.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state; the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

8. Equal obligation of all to work and the establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the population over the country.

10. Free education for all children in government schools and abolition of children’s factory labor in its present form – combination of education with industrial production, etc.

SEE ALSO: The John-Henry Westen Show – “Has Communism Come to America Under Biden?” [20:15]. In 1946, Sr. Lucia, the seer of the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima, which have been approved by the Catholic Church, predicted that the United States, under certain conditions, would be overcome by communism.

Bits & Bytes

ABC NEWS: “Put another way, hardly anyone thinks we’re more united now, and even fewer give Biden credit for it.” – Seth Dillon

CHESS: In 2017, the Adewumi family were forced to flee from Nigeria to escape Boko Haram. In 2019, while living in a homeless shelter, then 8-year-old Tani won the New York State Chess Championship. Now well housed, he has officially achieved the rank of National Chess Master. He hopes to become the youngest Grandmaster ever. The current record is held by Ukrainian Sergey Karjakin, who achieve the rank at the ripe old age of 12 years, 7 months, 0 days.

CRITICAL RACE THEORY: In Idaho, Governor Brad Little signed a new law banning the teaching of any theories that “exacerbate and inflame divisions on the basis of sex, race, ethnicity, religion, color, national origin, or other criteria in ways contrary to the unity of the nation and the well-being of the state of Idaho and its citizens.”

In the wealthy suburb of Southlake, Texas, anti-CRT Republicans blew out Democrats by a roughly 70% to 30% margin to take two seats and control of the Carroll Independent School District board. GOP candidates also took over the mayor’s seat and two seats on the city council. Voter turnout was about 3-times larger than in past local elections.

DEMOCRAT RACISM: The chair of the Lamar County, Texas, Democratic Party has officially resigned after posting a disgusting racial slur on his Facebook page.

He called Republican Senator Tim Scott an “Oreo,” which is a defamatory slang term used to describe a black person pretending to be white.

Following outraged push back from Republican leaders like Gov. Abbot, he has apologized and deleted the post.

FAUXTUS: [:25] – Is even one word of this true?

FLORIDA: Warning … this is disturbing. CLICK https://twitter.com/DavidBegnaud/status/1388753368030617600 [:36] to see undercover video of a Clewiston, Florida, elementary school principal hitting a 6-year-old with a wooden paddle in a county where corporal punishment is illegal. She really whales on the kid, giving herself plenty of room for her back swing.

Police have turned the case over to the state’s district attorney, who will determine whether to bring charges against the principal. The Department of Children and Families is also investigating.

FROM THE DESK: On Tuesday, Trump launched his own one-way communications platform. The platform allows followers to share his posts to social media sites, but does not include a feature to let users reply or engage with Trump’s posts directly.

GATES: Bill and Melinda have announced they are getting a divorce after 27 years of marriage.

LEBRON: CLICK https://twitter.com/HoodieKD7/status/1389068337812938752 [:11] to see the racist b-ball superstar over-play the elbow that doesn’t appear to have even touched his face. HoodieKD7 notes in the next tweet that his text was meant to be sarcastic. Another tweeter noted, “faking being hurt to get extra foul calls? LeBron does this stuff constantly.”

LIFE: We’re only 1/3 of the way through 2021 and already 536 pieces of pro-life legislation have been introduced and a whopping 61 have been signed into law. The Guttmacher Institute (Planned Parenthood’s research arm) calls these numbers unprecedented. We call them excellent news for the unborn!

MICHIGAN: [1:32] – Pure hypocrisy. Pure Whitmer.

NEW YORK: The caster of Chuckie Schmucker’s second vote is eager to fit in with the Left’s destruction of the nuclear family. This, of course, is one of the tenets of Communism. In 1972, I went with a high school tour group to visit Helsinki, Leningrad, and Moscow. Our Russian tour guide told us she wanted to stay home with her 3-year-old daughter, but the state didn’t allow it. She had been given two choices of career. She chose tour guide, because she thought she’d hate it less than the other one.

RANDOM ACTS: On Sunday afternoon, a collision on a bridge over Assawoman Bay in Ocean City, Maryland, caused one vehicle to teeter over the guardrail, throwing an 18-month-old baby girl into the water 25-feet below. A quick-thinking bystander immediately jumped in and saved her from drowning. The hero has yet to be identified.

ROMNEY: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/aklavan/videos/500948311267693 [3:33] to hear Michael Knowles report on and fact checked Mitt Romney, who was loudly booed by his own people.

TEXAS: On Saturday, the 6th congressional district of Texas had an jungle primary to choose a replacement for the seat vacated by Congressman Ronald Wright who died in February. Only one of the 23 candidates was an anti-Trumping Republican, so naturally CNN focused all its adoring attention on that guy. He came in 9th with just 3.2% of the vote.

The Democratic candidates, with a combined 36% of the total vote, were shut out. Nobody got over 50%, so there will be a run off between the top two winners, who are both Republicans – Trump endorsed Susan Wright (19.2%) and Rick Perry endorsed Jake Ellzey (13.8%).

TRANS: Wow … CLICK https://twitter.com/lavern_spicer/status/1388581820392955919 [:40] to hear Caitlyn Jenner say “it just isn’t fair” for biological males to compete in women’s sports. Caitlyn was formerly known as Bruce Jenner who won the gold medal in the men’s decathlon event at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal. What is especially notable about this clip is that Jenner recently announced she is running for Governor of California.

WASHINGTON: Chocolati in Seattle has earned a reputation for treating cops badly. On Tuesday, the girl behind the counter flatly refused to wait on an officer and his trainee.

From the company’s website: “We believe that it is a company’s duty to support the communities that keep us in business.” Riiiiight.

GRAMMY NOTES: Bunny and Bootz gave me a big giggle when they were here last week-end.

May the Fourth Be With You!

ALYSSA MILANO: CLICK https://twitter.com/RitaPanahi/status/1388577334429581312 [:51] to hear a powerful message to race-baiting Leftits who engage in the bigotry of low expectations.

AMVETS: For 32 years, AmVets, a Congressionally-chartered veterans service organization, has sponsored a Memorial Day event called “Rolling Thunder” that gathers together veterans and their motorcycles for a genuinely thunderous and physical show of advocacy and support. They have traditionally used the Pentagon parking lot as a staging area, but FAUXTUS’ DoD turned down their request for 2021 … but not before wasting months of time during which the group could have been looking for an alternate venue. AmVets says they’re coming to D.C. anyway.

COVID-19: The Left is busy, busy, busy telling us all about India’s Alarming Surge in COVID-19 cases. What they are not telling us is that India’s surge only started after they started vaccinating.

They’re also not telling us how India’s wide use of hydroxychloroquine has stopped the pandemic in its worst, most crowded slums or how one district even put together inexpensive ivermectin kits that doctors could easily prescribe.

They’re not telling us how India’s wide use of these safe, effective, and inexpensive drugs has resulted in India, which has four times the population of the U.S., having less than half of the coronavirus related deaths. In fact, 98 nations have higher coronavirus death rates than India’s puny 130/1 million population)!

But perhaps the most important thing they’re not talking about is the high recovery rate (99% of identified cases) which is automatically adding almost all of the new cases to the herd immunity the pro-vaxxers harp on.

Meanwhile, Tony “Dr. Death” Fauci is recommending that all of India lock itself down. India is a very poor country whose citizens cannot socially distance or work from home. Many live on the edge of starvation, so any economic slow-down is a literal death sentence for, I’d guess, a LOT more than the 1% the virus is killing.

FAUXTUS: [:33] … huh?

GIRAFFES: [10:36] – Two of my favorite things … giraffes and True Facts! … Oh EW, I had no idea they’re tongues were so nasty.

HOME IMPROVEMENTS: Builders sometimes change plans in very unacceptable ways! Pro Tip: Hire a local architect who has a good reputation with the people who enforce zoning/codes etc. Pay him to visit your job site often to ensure that construction is done to plan.

ILLINOIS: [4:39] – Dr. Brook Bellow pleaded with Illinois lawmakers to not repeal the state’s requirement that abortion providers notify a parent, guardian, or other designated representative when a minor girl is scheduled for an abortion. This is worth watching. Also, tissue alert.

KANSAS: In 2013, Kansas passed the law prohibiting “wrongful birth” that some parents inflicted on doctors for allegedly failing to provide information that would have led them to abort their unborn babies. On Friday, the Kansas Supreme Court upheld the law.

LIFE: After walking out on three abortion appointments, this young woman made one more. After that, they told her she’d be past the legal limit. She says she told God, “If you don’t want me to have this abortion then you have to physically stop me because I’m just gonna numb myself out and do it even though I’m totally against it.”

As she and her baby’s father headed to that appointment, they took an exit ramp that met the Planned Parenthood parking lot at the bottom. As they drove down the exit of the freeway, the car spun out of control and they ended up on the side of the road with a flat tire.

The baby’s father said he had a new spare tire in the trunk, but when he opened the trunk to get it out, he found that this new tire was completely deflated. She realized God had answered her prayer, so she now has her beautiful son here on Earth with her.

NEW YORK: Gov. Cuomo’s nursing home cover up was even worst than we thought. At the time Gov. Death was busy negotiating with his publisher for his “I’m the hero of ‘Rona” biography, his health officials were not only suppressing the truth about their own statistics, they also quashed a scientific paper that would have reported the true fatality total.

Cuomo insists he did nothing wrong in his handling of nursing homes during the coronavirus pandemic and would not resign from his position.

PAUL HARVEY: Policemen [2:09].

PAVING: A Scottish engineer has figured out how to use recycled plastic to replace some of the bitumen in asphalt.

PELOSI: On May 1, the Most Reverend Salvatore J. Cordileone published a lengthy document titled “Before I Formed You In The Womb, I Knew You.” the archbishop examined the implications of high profile Catholics who publicly support abortion. In it, he said to public figures like Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden, “If you find that you are unwilling or unable to abandon your advocacy for abortion, you should not come forward to receive Holy Communion.”

He also said, “I tremble that if I do not forthrightly challenge Catholics under my pastoral care who advocate for abortion, both they and I will have to answer to God for innocent blood.”

The reason this is more notable than other statements of this kind is that Cordileone is Archbishop of Pelosi’s home district of San Francisco.

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM: Päivi Räsänen is a member of parliament in Finland, a former Minister of the Interior, a medical doctor, a grandmother and a strong Christian. She is widely known for defending conservative Christian views and speaking out against abortion and euthanasia.

She is now facing three criminal charges for alleged “hate speech.” She says, “I do not consider myself guilty of threatening, slandering or insulting anyone. My statements were all based on the Bible’s teachings on marriage and sexuality.”

If convicted, she could face up to six years in prison.

VAX: The World Health Organization’s European drug monitoring agency has received 19,916 reports of “eye disorders” following injection of a COVID-19 vaccine. These range from minor discomforts to blindness.

YAHOO: “Yahoo” has at least two meanings. One is “hurray.” The other is “a rough, brutal, uncouth character.” I’m guessing the company wanted to evoke the first, but their behavior is leaning far more toward the second.

“At this point I trust Joe Rogan over Bill Gates.” – Kevin Sorbo

Bits & Bytes

AMERICAN FAMILIES PLAN: As per usual, Democrats have given a backwards name to an initiative. One might think that something called an “American Families Plan” would promote the family. One would be wrong. It is set to disincentivize marriage and childrearing while allowing government systems to take over the family.

ANTIFA: CLICK https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1387946175563591680 [2:01] to hear anarchists declare their intention to destroy. Oh, and Mayor Ted, resign or die.

CATHOLICISM & ECONOMICS: Thirty years ago today, Pope John Paul II issued a landmark encyclical on economics called Centesimus Annus. Catholic scholar Stephen White notes that John Paul recognized that socialism had a fundamental error in reducing the human person to a cog in a machine that denied the transcendent destiny of every person.

But the pope also warned: “[I]nsofar as [the affluent society] denies an autonomous existence and value to morality, law, culture and religion, it agrees with Marxism, in the sense that it totally reduces man to the sphere of economics and the satisfaction of material needs.”

FAUXTUS: “Devout Catholic” Joe has officially removed the United States from an historic pro-life declaration initiated by the Trump administration and co-sponsored by 34 other countries representing regions all over the world.

The declaration is “not consistent with our current Administration’s policies, including those relating to women’s health, LGBTQI equality, and gender equality.” IOW, it’s not consistent with Catholic doctrine.

LIFE: CLICK https://twitter.com/Camellia_Alexan/status/1387795056698937348 [:06] to see a 24-week premie flex its perfectly formed hand.

MASKS: [1:51] – Oregon has revised mask mandate for outdoor athletics after a high school runner collapsed at the finish line.

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS: [3:09] – A cop in Nashua, New Hampshire, purchased this basketball hoop so the kids could play along with him and his buddies.

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM: On Friday, April 23, 2021, Pastor John Sherwood (71) was dragged off by three police officers and detained overnight for engaging in “homophobic hate speech” – i.e., teaching what the Bible says about marriage.

SYSTEMIC RACISM: CLICK https://twitter.com/Adam4d/status/1388309921230360579 [:54] to hear Florida Gov. Ron de Santis explain why critical race theory is banned in Florida’s schools.

VOTER FRAUD: A Pennsylvania man was sentenced to five years’ probation after admitting to casting an illegal ballot during the Nov. 3 election. The 70-year-old man cast a mail-in ballot for Trump on behalf of his mother who had been dead for more than ten years. During his probation, he will not be allowed to vote in an election or serve on a jury.

FEDERAL THUGGERY: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/TuckerCarlsonTonight/videos/813927235922845 [10:19] to hear Rudy Giuliani tell Tucker Carlson about the FBI’s raid on his home. The warrant was for “electronic devices” but they refused to take Hunter Biden’s hard drives.

HOLLYWOOD: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/thewillwitt/videos/511053876936264 [2:34] to hear Kevin Sorbo talk about the hypocrisy and intolerance.

INDOCTRINATION: [1:56] – Two professors from Roosevelt University in Chicago got caught celebrating how openly they can teach “social justice all day every day.”

When they were told they were on a hot mic, they celebrated it. There’s no need to hide the fact that they’re indoctrinating young people to become Marxists. It’s mainstream now.

JUSTICE: A Minnesota man has been sentenced to four years in prison and fined $12 million for setting fire to a Minneapolis Police Department precinct station during last summer’s social justice protests.

MEDIA MALPRACTICE: The media simultaneously labeled FAUXTUS’s far-left, mega-bucks proposals “big,” “bold,” “ambitious,” and “according to our polls” even “popular.” They clearly all got the memo. CLICK https://www.facebook.com/newsbusters/videos/458728912066193 [1:23] if you have any appetite for MRC’s montage of horse hockey.

Morning Joe claimed a poll showed “overwhelming support from a majority of Americans” for the radical agenda FAUXTUS laid out in his speech. But if the ratings numbers are accurate, less than 4% of the U.S. population actually saw the speech.

The Daily Signal (URL below) fact-checked seven claims FAUXTUS made during his speech. And Not the Bee (URL below) compiled clips of the “best soundbites.”

PAWLOWSKI: [4:32] – Calgary police have obtained a warrant authorizing police and health officials “to use such reasonable force as they deem appropriate to gain access” to Pawlowski’s church to sniff out who is violating public health orders.

Pastor Pawlowski, who grew up under the jackboot of the Soviets behind the Iron Curtain in Poland, has been sounding the alarm about the growing level of tyranny in supposedly free Western nations.

RACISM: As this “pastor” so colorfully illustrates, “antiracism” is nothing more than actual racists discovering a way to shout their racism in civil society without being silenced … because it allows them to accuse anyone who disagrees with them of racism! – Adam Ford

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS: So sweet! 🙂

TWITTER: On Friday, Twitter’s stock dropped about 13% after the firm issued weak second-quarter guidance on revenue growth while its user numbers fell short of expectations.

Twitter’s CFO blamed it on the COVID-19 lockdowns, which makes no sense. Being locked down has forced us all to use the internet a lot MORE not less.

VAX: After receiving her second dose of the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine, a Nashville wife and mother of three is now unable walk. After spending ten days in the hospital, she has regained the ability to wiggle her toes. The hope is that she may walk again someday with the aid of intensive physical therapy.

In 2019, VAERS received 48,000+ adverse vaccine incident reports. Since this mad rush to inject untested vaccines into millions of arms, VAERS is posting tens of thousands a week. Pro-vaxxers say it doesn’t matter how many adverse reactions there are; what matters is how many people have been vaccinated (against a disease that is 99.85% survivable).

Well, if you or one of your loved ones is among the damaged or dead, then that matters a whole helluva lot.

XENOPHOBIA: Also racist.

GRAMMY NOTES: The Mascots have Carolina wrens raising babies in their open shed. And Grammy has mascots playing in her back yard, but you’ll have to wait for those pics. 🙂

ABORTION: “Devout Catholic” Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package made $467.8 billion available for abortion and abortion businesses.

The US Conference of Catholic Bishops has announced that they will vote at their meeting this summer about denying communion to Biden and other pro-abortion Catholics like him. The Church teaches that a person in the state of mortal sin cannot receive communion, and the Church is clear that abortion meets this criteria of mortal sin.

BIG TECH CENSORSHIP: Judicial Watch has obtained documents from the office of the Secretary of State of California that shows how a whole group of government officials in multiple states colluded with social media giants Facebook, Twitter, and Google to suppress anti-Biden and pro-Trump speech.

BLM CON: Get Rich Quick With Karl! – Avowed Marxist and Black Lives Matter co-founder, Patrisse Cullors, made headlines recently for her purchase of multiple luxury homes. In 2019, she got paid upwards of $20,000 a month serving as chairwoman of Reform LA Jails, which also spent $26,000 hosting “meetings and appearances” at luxury resorts in Malibu where guests enjoy $600/night pet-friendly rooms, a bar and restaurant, three pools and five acres of private Pacific beach.

BORDER: [5:42] – FAUXTUS’ official line is that the majority of adults are being turned back at the border. This OANN report suggests this is a lie and that smugglers are making big money.

CATHOLIC: Love the sinner, hate the sin. – When Vienna’s oldest Catholic church draped the rainbow “pride flag” from its bell tower as a sign of defiance to the Vatican’s recent declaration that banned blessings for same-sex couples, young faithful Catholics responded by creating their own banner in support of Church teaching, clandestinely pinning it to the same church.

The banner says “Roma locuta, causa finita” at the bottom, which means “Rome has spoken, the case is closed.” When doctrinal matters are settled by the Church’s teaching authority and that authority has spoken, the matter is settled and Catholics not only can be confident that this is God’s truth and will in the matter, but also must assent.

CHERRY PICKING: The report that Booker used for his so-called facts falsely classified dozens of hate crimes as “terror attacks.”

For example, a single member of the Aryan Brotherhood murdered a man, then murdered another man sometime later; a man with far-right political beliefs murdered a homeless man; and six white supremacist prison inmates beat another prisoner to death. Each of these four events were counted as a “major terrorist attack.”

Matt Palumbo searched the list and found only seven (not 62) genuine incidents of right-wing terror. These were carried out by five perpetrators who self-identified as either a neo-Nazi style White supremacist or as an anti-government survivalist type. These seven attacks resulted in a total of 22 victims dead (excluding perpetrators).

In the same time frame (which conveniently excludes 9/11), there have been 23 domestic terror incidents committed by Islamic extremists. Each resulted in much higher death counts. In fact, only two of them (2009 Fort Hood, 2015 San Bernardino) resulted in more deaths than all seven, genuine right-wing attacks. You can view the list for yourself at the link below.

COMEDIANS: [6:28] – K-VON exposes the hypocrisy of unfunny Leftists talking about how sad they are that there’s just nothing at all about Joe Biden that they can ridicule.

COVID-19: Ditto coverage of inexpensive, effective early treatments to prevent hospitalizations and allow natural immunity to occur.

FAUXTUS: “The man who totally received more votes than any president ever addressed Congress last night. Millions did not watch.” – Don Surber

FIRST 100 DAYS: “From abortion to racial politics, to the politicization of science and a humanitarian crisis on the border, the first 100 days of the new administration have indeed brought a partisan wrecking ball to the priorities of religious voters.” – Brian Burch, president of Catholic Vote

FEDERAL THUGGERY: On Wednesday morning, seven FBI agents arrived at the Manhattan apartment of Rudy Giuliani and remained there for about two hours. They seized laptops, cell phones, and other electronic devices. Giuliani has not been arrested or charged with any crime.

His lawyer, Robert Costello, called it “legal thuggery,” noting that he had offered to answer investigators’ questions, but that they had declined. “It’s like I’m talking to a wall,” he said.

“Why would you do this to anyone, let alone someone who was the associate attorney general, United States attorney, the mayor of New York City, and the personal lawyer to the 45th president of the United States.”

GROOMING: Parents with traditional values need to be careful what their kids watch, because LGBT activists have made huge inroads into children’s entertainment. Disney, Netflix, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network all have bisexual, homosexual, and trans characters, storylines, and messaging. And now Pixar has joined the kiddie woke train, issuing a voice casting call for a new project that will include a 14-year-old transgender character.

IVERMECTIN: [16:22] – In the video, Dr. Benigno Agbayani, a doctor from the Philippines, strongly defended the use of ivermectin for preventing and treating COVID-19, pointing to “80 clinical studies” which support his arguments, and alluding to “bias” and conflicts of interest, which have led medical bodies to be reluctant about promoting the drug.

More than once, the interviewer tries to slander the Ivermectin protocol, referring to a “whole cocktail of other drugs” recommended by the FLCC for use along with Ivermectin. The FLCC’s “Early Outpatient Protocol” (aka, MASKplus) is at the last URL below. It gives the amounts of Ivermectin for various ages, body weights, stage, comorbidities/risk, etc. It also suggests adding Fluvoxamine, which is an anti-anxiety medication, not an antiviral, and which apparently is helpful for some patients in some situations.

Beyond that, the only actual drugs mentioned in this alleged “whole cocktail of other drugs” are aspirin, chlorhexidine/benzydamine for mouthwash gargles and Betadine for nasal sprays. NONE of them are anti-virals. The other recommendations – Vitamin C, Vitamin D3, Zinc, Melatonin and Quercitin (herbal supplements), essential oil inhalations (e.g., VapoRub), and oxygen saturation monitoring – are not even drugs.

MEDIA MALPRACTICE: A new CBS poll claims 85% of Americans liked Joe Biden’s speech to Congress. Of the nearly 1,000 people polled, only 169 were Republicans.

NEO RACISM: Idaho has become the first state to ban the use of the controversial “critical race theory” in its state public education system. The new law will prohibit schools from promoting race essentialism, collective guilt, and neo-segregation.

RUSSIA-GATE: [3:22] – Watch this to hear about new developments in the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. Also watch Hannity’s report at the link below. If we couldn’t get truth and justice under Trump, we surely won’t see it now. I am grateful that God will have the final say.

SCHOOL CHOICE: CLICK https://twitter.com/DeAngelisCorey/status/1387542672911474688 [1:44] to hear a Democratic state senator in Nebraska talk about how “the only people who are opposed to school choice are people who have school choice and exercise it.”

GRAMMY NOTES: Eating is a huge problem for many autistic kids. I’m so grateful our mascots have skilled, loving therapists to help them! Eating a new food is broken down into many, many tiny steps. New foods are chosen by “chaining” them via similarity of color, taste, texture, with a food that is already accepted. And when two foods have been conquered, they move on to mixing foods. In the photo, Buzz is working on touching, making little mashed potato boats for his peas. It wasn’t all that long ago that Bunny would freak out if a food she didn’t trust even touched her plate!

BABY BODY PARTS: A 20-week abortion costs between $1,000 and $2,000. The price chart above shows the body parts harvested from just one such procedure adds more than $2,000 more in profit for the abortuary.

Under the Obama-Biden administration, an estimated $77 million in taxpayers’ money went into procuring aborted baby body parts for researchers with federal grants.

BORDER: FAUXTUS’ border czar hasn’t actually visited the border yet, but she has been sending copies of her book to put into unaccompanied minor swag bags. Like Sgt. Schultz, the White House knows “noooothing” about this. When asked if VFAUXTUS is making a profit at the expense of tax payers, Jen Psaki said she didn’t know, but had heard it’s a good book.

In Texas, four counties have declared locals states of disaster as a result of the surge of illegals brought on by FAUXTUS reversing every good thing Trump had done. They say the “health, life, and property” of their residents are “under imminent threat of disaster from the human trafficking occurring on our border with Mexico.”

COVID-19: You won’t hear this from the Slime Stream Media, but the data shows that new cases have been steadily declining over the past two weeks. And on Sunday, the CDC reported only 294 new deaths nation-wide, which is the lowest single-day number since Sept. 7.

Despite the fact that we’ve known for many moons that the ‘rona is rarely ever transmitted outdoors, the CDC has only just now gotten around to telling people who are fully vaccinated that they don’t need to wear masks OUT of doors, while the unvaxed can unmask while walking, running, biking or attending small outdoor gatherings.

DEMOCRAT CULT: [8:44] – “I do believe Democrats most especially are in a deep cult that they really don’t know about and aren’t really aware of.”

From the “Children of God Cult” article linked below – “Actress Rose McGowan lived with her parents in a COG group in Italy until she was nine years old. In her memoir, ‘Brave’, McGowan wrote about her early memories of being beaten by cult members and recalled how the group advocated for sexual relationships between adults and children.”

FACTCHECK: Facebook’s “independent fact checkers” work for factcheck dot org, an organization whose vaccination “facts” are provided by a group that holds 15% of Johnson & Johnson’s stock ($1.9 billion worth). Despite their best efforts, only 46% of Americans consider the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine to be safe, compared with more than 70% for the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. And nearly 1 in 4 Americans are disinclined to get any of the coronavirus vaccines.

IRONY ABOUNDS: I only watched 36 seconds of this and that was too much. [10:39] – YouTube, which is notorious for censoring right-wing speech, the platform’s CEO has received a “Free Expression” award at an event sponsored by YouTube.

LIFE: Arizona Governor Doug Ducey has signed a law that prohibits abortion of babies with Down Syndrome, ensures that abortion drugs cannot be shipped through the mail to women who have not had an in-person medical exam, prevents taxpayer dollars from being used for research that involves fetal remains from an abortion, and requires dignified and respectful treatment of the remains of aborted children.

MEDIA MALPRACTICE: MSNBC’s Joy Reid recently announced that, despite being fully vaccinated, she wears not one but two masks while jogging. Does she also have a St. Fauci shrine in her apartment? Inquiring minds want to know.

The SCIENCE says there is little to no correlation between mask-wearing and the spread of the virus, that outdoor transmission is virtually non-existent while running or walking, that wearing even one mask while exercising causes oxygen deprivation, which is harmful to your health, and that the vaccines seem to work for most people.

Bonchie at Red State opines, “If you are vaccinated and wearing two masks while running, you are probably mentally ill, and I don’t mean that in a snarky way. I mean that literally. To do that means you are suffering from a level of unfounded paranoia that likely needs professional help. … Reid is more likely to get killed by an octopus than to get the virus while running and perish from it. …

“That MSNBC continues to put someone in prime time that is as absolutely crazy as Reid boggles the mind. I know they are a liberal network, but that doesn’t mean you have to actively promote delusion and conspiratorial nonsense. Yet, here we are, with Reid spending her show promoting one of the dumbest practices known to humanity. It’s a cry for help at this point.”

MICHIGAN: Queen Gretchen locked her state down tight, banning all smiles and sunshine. Thousands of businesses collapsed or are on life support. Education and psychological health is in horrible condition.

Somehow, despite having done every single thing WRONG, Gretchen Khan’s state is having a totally explicable surge in COVID-19 cases. Naturally, since small children don’t seem to be much affected by the virus, Jackboot Whitmer has extended the state’s mask mandate to include children between the ages of two and four. That means they are now required to wear a mask in all public places, including schools, childcare centers and camps.

Best comment: “For once, Illinois isn’t the worst state.”

OSCARS: [6:16] – Dan’s GET REAL about Hollywood’s stinking hypocrisy. Nothing new, but I just love listening to Dan rant.

RANDOM ACTS OF VIOLENCE: CLICK https://twitter.com/Dolphinfan201/status/1386407117884563458 [1:31] to see what happens in an uncivil society when four friends have to decide which one gets left behind. You can hear people yelling, “Stop it”, but it looked to me as if the only things that ended the thing were fatigue among the all-Black assault squad and the White members of the airport police who showed up to intervene. Cuz “systemic racism” or something.

I’m hearing Black Conservatives speak up more often these days about the undeniable fact that the only thing wrong with Black culture is Black culture. “We need to fix our own problems,” say the sensible heads. I remember back in the day when Bill Cosby tried to say these things. He got called all kinds of bad names for speaking about this truth.

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM: SCOTUS overturned another 9th Circus Court ruling this week, striking down the last of California’s bans on indoor worship.

Previous SCOTUS ruling struck down the state’s restrictions on small group Bible studies and prayer meetings and lifted California’s capacity limits on churches that were stricter than those on commercial buildings. This one shot down restrictions on congregational singing and chanting in church.

REMOTE WORK: According to a new survey from Flexjobs, 65% of remote workers want to keep working from home when the pandemic is over. Just 2% said they would prefer to return to the normal office model. Another 33% said they would prefer the hybrid model that combines office and remote work. The survey found that 58% would look for a new job if they had to return to the office full-time.

SATIRE: Here is a must-watch educational video from Trey Kennedy that will help you navigate the ever-changing COVID rules and regulations that you might come across these days. This is a very important guide to the logic around the ol’ COVID-one-nine. It is certain to clear up any confusion on what is allowed or not allowed in 2021.

SETH ANDREW: Former Obama adviser Seth Andrew (42) has been arrested and charged by the FBI with stealing $218,005 from charter schools he helped found. The charges include wire fraud, money laundering, and making false statements to a financial institution.

SYSTEMIC RACISM: According to a UCLA student, automatic soap dispensers are racist, because they force those with “black and brown bodies” to show their palms, which are the only areas of their skin light enough to trigger the soap to come out.

Doc Holliday at Not The Bee commented, “Like, were you planning on having the hand soap dispense from its container and land somewhere other than the palm of your hand? Where, if I may ask? Your eyeball, perhaps? Your elbow? Your earhole? Your foot?”

UK: [6:21] – Tens of thousands of unmasked Brits marched through London demanding freedom from the U.K. government’s extreme COVID-19 restrictions.

GRAMMY NOTES: Army Prince Junior is doing a lesson on economics. His mom reports, “They have to create a product to sell, develop a business plan, work with a budget, do a cost estimate, produce their product and then sell it.

“He had two products in mind. Pillows in kid patterns polled better. So we gave him a budget and took him to the store where we focused on target audience to decide what fabrics to purchase. Now we are learning how to wash, iron, and trim the fabric, cut the pieces, and sew and stuff the pillows.

“The only thing we still need to figure out is how much to sell them for. The kids are earning tickets in school which they can use on market day to purchase the goods their friends are manufacturing and will be selling.”

He’s in second grade, but as you might have guessed already, it’s not a public school. I am SO excited about this project!

CDC says you can now peek your head out from your self-imposed prison once a day

From The Genesius Times.

NEW YORK (AP) — The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Tuesday that you can finally peak your head out from your self-imposed prison now, but just once a day.

The new guidance represents another carefully calibrated step on the road back to normal from the coronavirus outbreak that has killed over 570,000 Americans who died from other stuff.

For most of the past year, the CDC had been advising Americans to stay inside and be very afraid of a disease that had a 99% recovery rate.

“Today, I hope, is a day when we can take another step back to the normalcy of before,” CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said. “Over the past year, we have spent a lot of time telling Americans what you can’t do. Today, I am going to tell you some of the things you can do including peaking out your door once a day.”

The change comes as more than half of U.S. adults have gotten at least one dose of vaccine, and more than a third have been fully vaccinated and everyone’s feeling great.

Walensky said the decision was driven by the fact that everything the CDC has recommended has been contradicted by science shortly after.

Dr. Obi Wan, an infectious disease expert at the University of Mos Eisley, welcomed the change in guidance.

“I’m really glad we can finally peak our heads out of our self-imposed prisons,” Wan said. “Since our overlords have said it’s okay to peak our heads outside once a day, it must mean it’s okay.”
