Lest you take seriously anything liberals tell you about guns:

Let’s hope Catherine Herridge appreciates the education provided by a Twitter reader who added this context to her misleading tweet:

The “guns” shown in the video have orange tips to mark them as toys.

These clueless weenies together with more formal members of the Democratic Party apparatus think they should decide which guns the Constitution meant for you to have.

No doubt the “racist” comments were every bit as scary as the gun collection.

Too bad for Jack Teixeira he didn’t leak the docs during the Vietnam War. The media would be fêting him.

Congrats, CBS News. You have topped the tweet on rubber bullets used to oppress mostly peaceful Ferguson rioters:

Don’t be too hard on Ryan J. Reilly, currently of NBC News. Liberal elitists avoid guns and manual labor, so how would a journalist know what earplugs are?

To learn where Democrats stand on abortion — and what it takes to be a law professor these days — let’s go to a recent Senate Judiciary Committee hearing:

University of California, Irvine Chancellor’s Professor of Law Michele Goodwin testified during a hearing on “The Assault on Reproductive Rights in a Post-Dobbs America” Wednesday, continually comparing the harm black women experienced during slavery and Jim Crow laws to modern abortion restrictions, which she notes are spreading through “what was the U.S. confederacy.” Judiciary Democrats announced the hearing shortly after a Texas judge suspended the FDA’s approval of abortion pill mifepristone, a decision the Supreme Court recently granted a stay on pending its appeal in the Fifth Circuit.

Blacks are overwhelmingly more likely than whites to be killed by abortion. Yet the professor’s learned stance on abortion is that those who don’t like it are guilty of racism Racism RACISM!

Good thing a low IQ is protection from irony. Otherwise, she would knock herself off her chair:

“The state of Mississippi has notoriously been a death sentence for black women dating back to the time of slavery, through Jim Crow into the present,” Goodwin said. “If we don’t thread that needle together, then there’s a lot that we are missing…Mississippi is one of the deadliest places not just in the country to be pregnant, but one of the deadliest places in all of the industrialized world to be pregnant.”

Although not as deadly a place to be a black baby as say, hyperliberal New York City, where…

…thousands more black babies are aborted than born alive each year, and the abortion rate among black mothers is more than three times higher than it is for white mothers. According to a city Health Department report released in May, between 2012 and 2016 black mothers terminated 136,426 pregnancies and gave birth to 118,127 babies.

Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) figured that since Professor Goodwin was there to talk about abortion, not racism, she might as well elucidate her stand on the matter. He received a lesson in how to answer a question by refusing to answer it:

Ted Cruz explains why the nutty professor would not just say yes:

Few people are sick enough to find it acceptable to kill viable children on the technicality that they have not yet passed entirely through the birth canal. Despite what you may have heard, moral decency is not a losing position.

At least Democrats stay true to their first principles. Given that men are women if they say they are women, then they ought to be allowed to compete in women’s sports. Likewise, given that a baby’s life has no value, then you can snuff out that life whenever you wish, regardless of when it began.

Towering shrines to evil can be constructed upon the silliest of lies. This is why moonbats must always be called out on their lies.

It can’t be easy for female athletes to stay motivated when they know the competition is rigged against them. Men have overwhelming advantages in virtually all sports. Despite being 54 years old, a guy calling himself Glenique Frank managed to beat nearly 14,000 women in the London Marathon on Sunday.

In a faux show of sportsmanship, he has offered to give back his finisher’s medal:

“If they really think I’ve stolen the place [of a female runner], I don’t mind giving the medal back, because I’ll run again next year for charity.

“But I don’t want to apologize, because I didn’t do anything wrong,” Frank stated firmly — saying [he] was only sorry for “upsetting” [his] critics, who [he] maintained were mostly “haters.”

Of course he stole the place of a female runner, as surely as he would have stolen the place of a child runner if he had competed in a race while pretending to be a child. But “haters” who call his bluff regarding giving the medal back risk the ire of the violent (see here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, etc.) transsexual community, so no one is likely to press the issue.

Political correctness does not stand still. Yesterday’s obsequious compliance is today’s thoughtcrime. For example, only recently, it was the height of wokeness to use the phrase “person assigned male at birth” in place of the disfavored word “boy.” However, this term has in turn been deemed offensive. The acceptable term is now “person who produces sperm.”

The word “girl” is also regarded as transphobic. Formerly, we could avoid the righteous wrath of wokescolds by referring to girls as “persons assigned female at birth.” However, a girl is now to be called a “person who produces eggs.” Presumably this applies even to girls who are too young to produce eggs.

Educrats at the Founders Memorial School in Essex Junction, Vermont have spoken:

We will be using the following language with students:

• Person who produces sperm in place of boy, male, and assigned male at birth.

• Person who produces eggs in place of girl, female and assigned female at birth.

The instructions specifically apply to fifth graders. It is important to instill correct language early, so kids don’t grow up speaking English like their politically incorrect ancestors.

Joe Biden has already secured his place in American history as the nation’s worst president, crippling the country both domestically and abroad. Yet the senile, corrupt, incompetent leftist has the arrogance to run for reelection:

Biden’s three-minute launch video touched on the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, anti-abortion sentiment, Trump-aligned Republicans, and reforms to Social Security and Medicare. The president made the case that he needed another term to “finish the job,” although he made virtually no mention of the actual job he’s done so far.

That is, he is running on Reichstag fire hype over a minor riot that occurred years ago, Democrat love of abortion, and hysteria generated over the notion of reforming entitlements before they become insolvent.

See if you can stomach this slimy tyrant pretending to stand for freedom:

Veteran Republican strategist Scott Jennings summarizes the strategy:

“Their entire construct depends upon the Republican Party nominating the one person in this field who is guaranteed to get fewer votes than Joe Biden.”

That would be Donald Trump, who is no friend of conservatives. Trump sides with the Democrats on abortion and entitlements (not to mention LGBTism and even Covid lockdowns), but political ads do not target the sort of people who would follow politics closely enough to know this.

Speaking of political ads, the GOP let artificial intelligence respond to Biden’s video announcement:

A vote for Biden in 2024 is actually a vote for the explicit Affirmative Action hire who would likely take his place well before the end of his term:

“Finish the job!” croaks Biden. In light of what his handlers have been doing to the country — hamstringing the energy industry, humiliating us on the national stage, weakening the military, dividing the country with belligerent radicalism, driving up inflation and the national debt with a never-ending spree of wasteful spending that guarantees eventual economic collapse — it would be hard to come up with a more ominous slogan:

The nation is at fundamental odds about the nature of truth, government, and inherent rights. Biden wants to codify the murder of preborn children into law. He wants to ban private weapons so only the government has them. He wants to punish parents who pray outside abortion clinics or speak up at school board meetings by sending the DOJ and FBI after them. He wants to use the FBI to infiltrate churches to root out “extremism.” He wants to blow out spending and raise taxes while expanding the power of the IRS to collect said taxes. He wants to centralize power. He wants to make sure dissidence is censored under the guise of “disinformation.” He wants to rule by executive fiat instead of congressional lawmaking. He wants to stack the Supreme Court so it can’t check his power grabs.

That’s what finishing the job would mean, and what his handlers will inflict — whether behind him or behind Kamala Harris — if the spent force Trump with his sinking 25% approval cannot be stopped in the primaries.

The Party of Death has power because it represents the Culture of Death — that is, the morally depraved cultural of our degenerate ruling class. To see how explicitly this culture celebrates death, look to the Ivy League, where the crème de la crème receives its accreditation:

A group of Princeton University students performed a feminist musical over the weekend focused on abortion and “self-empowerment.”

“To All the Babies I’ve Killed Before; A Love/Hate Letter to Storytelling” explores “the challenges of being heard and cultivating self-empowerment as a queer, cognitively-disabled (ADHD) woman in artistic spaces that traditionally center archaic, western, patriarchal narratives grounded in firm structures of storytelling and comedy,” according to a program description.

What do students need classes for when they can get their woke indoctrination distilled to its essence and injected effortlessly through entertainment?

The title “twists a well-known saying to many writers, ‘sometimes you have to kill your babies,’” according to the thespians.

In this case, babies are not just a metaphor:

“Questions of agency and womanhood have, of course, long plagued our society in more ways than just artistic expression,” the description reads. “Today, in the U.S., more than 19 million women live in contraceptive deserts, lacking access to affordable reproductive healthcare [yadda yadda yadda].”

“Reproductive healthcare” is Liberalese for killing inconvenient babies.

The description directs readers to a Planned Parenthood website to find local abortion facilities in New Jersey.

The political purpose is not subtle. At least no one is likely to waste their time sitting through the production expecting literary merit. But then, if you wanted something other than moonbattery, what would you be doing at Princeton?

Whimpering pleas for acceptance quickly escalate to outlandish demands dictated to the rest of society once a group previously viewed with contempt achieves protected status. Pedophiles are climbing fast. In Minnesota, a transsexual state legislator has proposed an amendment that would allow those with “sexual attachment to children” to be classified as a protected sexual orientation:

Leigh Finke, 41, is an elected Representative to Minnesota House District 66A and is cited as a chief author of HF 1655, a bill which seeks to establish gender identity as a protected category and aims to remove rights act sections of existing legislation “that allow for discrimination based on sexual orientation.”

Under “equity,” all of us are equal, but those who are “protected” are a lot more equal than you. They are first hired and last fired. Criticism of them is not permitted. Their interests are prioritized.

Applying sexual perversion to children is both an objective and a vehicle:

Finke was elected as a state representative last year after campaigning on a platform which largely consisted of guaranteeing medical interventions for gender non-conforming minors, including drugs which halt puberty, while referring to this demographic as “trans youth.”

The alarming focus on children that characterizes the LGBT movement is especially pronounced in Finke:

Finke held several rallies for “trans kids” in the months leading up to the voting date, and the first bill that he authored as an elected official, the Trans Refuge Bill, or HF 146, allows minors from outside the state to receive puberty blockers and hormones within Minnesota. The bill was passed on April 24 and allows the state courts to have “temporary emergency jurisdiction” over children who enter Minnesota “to obtain gender-affirming health care.”

Parents have no say in their children’s bodies being irreversibly deformed, once they are in the clutches of the leftists running Minnesota. After all, kids are not their parents’ kids; they are the government’s kids.

Finke’s message to children who fall prey to grooming is explicit:

“Don’t listen to your parents!”

He advises that children should “limit contact with any adult” who fails to affirm their “queerness” and recommends that they visit “queer sex shops.”

In addition to pedophilia, Finke also supports the transsexual violence that has become epidemic (see here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, etc.) — specifically to promote the transsexualization of children:

Finke has also made statements in support of rioting and posted an image to his Facebook profile suggesting that it is necessary to “arm trans people.” He mentioned the potential for violence during a speech at Hamline Methodist in reference to a “torrent of anti-trans legislation” which seeks to restrict medical interventions for minors. Finke stated it was necessary to “protect trans kids,” and asserted that in the near future, “there will be more riots.”

Guys like this are fêted by the liberal establishment:

Last month, Finke was awarded the title of Woman of the Year by USA Today.

They are writing laws the rest of us have to live under.

Maybe it’s just as well that math has been transsexualized. That way, it might escape being banned altogether for being racist. This charge has been investigated at Canada’s Simon Fraser University, which recently held a seminar on the topic, focused on “unpacking oppressive structures and bias in math and science.”

The event was…

…conducted under the purview of their Math Department’s Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Learning Group.

Algebra, trigonometry, et cetera have to move aside to make room for cultural Marxism.

The Learning Group hosted several events in the past, including an event titled “LGBTQIA2S+ Experiences in Mathematics” and another titled “Power, Oppression, and Mathematics.”

George Orwell predicted the politicization of even math when Winston Smith was required to believe that 2 + 2 = 5, which was the equivalent of having to believe guys like Dylan Mulvaney are women (failing to meet that requirement just got Matt Walsh demonetized by Google’s YouTube, costing the Daily Wire $100 million per month).

The wokefication of math means more than moonbattery shoehorned into story problems:

The Oregon Department of Education (ODE) recently encouraged teachers to register for training that encourages “ethnomathematics” and argues, among other things, that White supremacy manifests itself in the focus on finding the right answer.

It won’t take many generations of continued liberal rule before our descendants are unable to perform simple addition and subtraction.

On a tip from Franco.

The Orwellian euphemism “gender-affirming care” encompasses sex change operations too nightmarish for Josef Mengele or the island of Dr Moreau. These are not medical procedures, but crimes against humanity. If Satan were to devise how someone should die, it would look like this:

Once again, Holland is at the cutting edge of liberalism:

A 2016 medical article documenting the tragic death of one of the participants in the linchpin Dutch study upon which the entire child sex change experiment is based indicates that puberty suppression was to blame for the young person’s death.

The case is that of an 18-year-old trans-identified male whose puberty was blocked by the Dutch researchers at a very early stage, meaning there wasn’t enough penile tissue for surgeons to use to create a “neo-vagina.” Therefore, a more risky procedure using a section of the patient’s bowel was necessary, which resulted in fatal necrotizing fasciitis.

Technically, he was an adult when they killed him. But social engineers put him on track for this as a child, when the desecration and destruction of his body on behalf of the LGBT agenda were already well underway.

It isn’t just the Netherlands. In the USA, sex change operations are performed on children, with the support of the Biden Regime.

If there is a crime worse than murder, this is it.

As Joe Biden keeps reminding us, they aren’t your children; they are the government’s children. That should make them easy to deal with if they become a drain on the incrementally socialized healthcare system. To see our future under Democrat rule, look to progressive Holland, which is lifting age restrictions on euthanizing sick children. From the Dutch government:

The current Scheme for Termination of Pregnancy and Termination of Life for Newborns (LZA/LP) will be amended and expanded to include termination of life in children aged 1-12. This concerns a small group of terminally ill children who suffer hopelessly and unbearably, whose palliative care options are not sufficient to relieve their suffering and who are expected to die in the foreseeable future.

A small group for now. All things governmental start relatively small but grow like stage 4 cancer.

This is what Minister Kuipers of Health, Welfare and Sport writes in the government’s response to the evaluation of the LZA/LP Regulation from March 2022, which was sent to the House of Representatives. The evaluation shows that the LZA/LP Scheme is not yet functioning properly. Doctors feel reluctance to perform late termination of pregnancy or termination of life in newborns.

Doctors still have qualms about killing children. No worries; Big Government lumbers to the rescue:

The Cabinet has decided to amend the current LZA/LP Scheme in line with the recommendations from the evaluation, in order to remove this reticence as much as possible and to improve the functioning of the scheme in practice. The scheme will also be expanded to include the assessment of termination of life in children aged 1-12 (L1-12).

Canada has moved to euthanize the mentally ill. In Belgium, they kill people for being depressed. The USA is not far behind; euthanasia is already legal in many blue states.

At least we won’t have to worry about mopey kids when liberals have finished imposing utopia.

On a tip from Mr. Freemarket.

The depraved LGBT agenda, with its satanic focus on defiling innocent children, is too evil (not to mention repulsive) to have mainstream appeal. Yet it dominates our culture because it has the aggressive backing of the liberal establishment (the federal government, the media, corporate boardrooms). This is reinforced at the street level by the fascistic thugs calling themselves Antifa. Let’s see whether Antifa’s Brownshirt tactics play as well in Fort Worth as they do in Portland:

Black-clad counter-protesters in tactical gear, many armed with guns, stood outside Fort Brewery and Pizza as the restaurant hosted a drag show Sunday, with protesters for the nonprofit organization Protect Texas Kids demonstrating across the street, according to the Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD). Counter-protester Samuel Folkes, 20, allegedly went over to the protesters and pepper-sprayed them, subsequently swinging at police when they tried to arrest him.

Counter-protester Christopher Guillott, 33, is accused of attacking officers with an umbrella and hitting one in the face as they attempted to handcuff Folkes, with both men continuing to resist arrest.

Both were charged with a second-degree felony for assaulting an officer. Since Tarrant County DA Phil Sorrells was not appointed by George Soros, they might even see some jail time. A third Antifa kook also faces charges.

Protect Texas Kids thanked the FWPD:

The same Antifa radicals have been at all of our “kid-friendly” drag show protests for the past year attempting to instigate and cause problems. Every other police department has refused to hold these criminals accountable for breaking the law.

The front line of the Culture War reaches Fort Worth:

Holding the line is the first step; pushing it back comes next.

How does the fundamental right of free speech fare where liberalism has triumphed? To find out, let’s turn to the Rainbow Utopia and check on the progress of the Prevention and Combating of Hate Crime and Hate Speech Bill, which has been accepted by South Africa’s National Assembly:

The Bill has now been referred to the National Council of Provinces for deliberation and should it be accepted, it will be sent to Pres Cyril Ramaphosa for confirmation.

Ramaphosa was produced by the same African National Congress that gave us the communist terrorist, chum of despots, and prominent deity in the liberal firmament Nelson Mandela. I’m guessing he will sign it.

A specific concern is the vague definitions used in the Bill to define hate speech.

That’s not a bug; it’s a feature. As with the terms of service Big Tech tyrants like Google exploit to deplatform dissidents, vagueness will allow it to be weaponized on an arbitrary basis. The concept of “hate speech” and “hate crimes” was created for this purpose.

After several amendments to the Bill the term “hate crime” is now defined as an offense – excluding the offenses of crimen injuria or hate speech – committed by a person motivated by their prejudice or intolerance towards the victim, a family member of the victim, or the victim’s connection to or support of a group of persons who share one or more of the following real or perceived characteristics: age; albinism; culture; disability; ethnic or social roots; gender; HIV or Aids status; language; nationality; refugee status; occupation; political affiliation or conviction; race; religion; sexual orientation; skin colour.

The Bill also provides for the different channels through which these crimes can be committed and includes social media and online communication.

In short, say anything over the Internet that anyone chooses to find offensive and if authorities don’t like the cut of your jib, you will be in big trouble:

The Bill also provides for any person found guilty of a hate crime to be sentenced to a maximum of eight years imprisonment or a fine or both.

It would be a challenge to survive eight days in a South African hospital nowadays. Eight years in prison could be a life sentence.

We all know when Democrats will impose a similar law in the USA: the moment they have the political leverage.
