New York Parole Board Consists of Militant Moonbats

The job of the New York State Board of Parole is to release convicted criminals back onto the streets. It is staffed by leftists well suited to this task:

New York’s Parole Board is a patronage mill stuffed with leftist ideologues and political has-beens who each rake in an astounding $190,000 yearly…

They have released 43 cop-killers in the past 8 years.

This one is a prize:

Tana Agostini was appointed to the New York Board of Parole in 2017 by then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo — four years after she used her clout to engineer the parole of a convicted murderer she fell in love with and married.

The prison career of her heartthrob Thomas O’Sullivan “included an escape and biting off part of an inmate’s nose.”

The current board is also filled with former lefty state legislators, Legal Aid Society lawyers, public defenders and other longtime prisoner-rights advocates.

A “prisoner-rights advocate” is a militant moonbat who focuses on sacrificing the interests of law-abiding citizens to those of convicted criminals.

Other board members include Chairman Darryl C. Towns…

The former Democratic state assemblyman later served as then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s Housing Commissioner – and is the son of former Rep. Edolphus Towns (D-Brooklyn). He’s had his own run in with cops too, busted for drunk driving in Mount Vernon in 2011. His wife, Karen Boykin-Towns, is vice chair of the NAACP National Board of Directors. She also worked for 22 years for pharma giant Pfizer – where she became its first chief diversity officer in 2008.

…Carlton Mitchell…

The bio on the board’s website says Mitchell worked in the non-profit sector to bring about “social transformation.” He voted in 2023 to release Edward M. Kindt, 39, who was convicted of raping and murdering a jogger in 1999 in upstate New York.

…Michael S. Corley…

His bio on the board’s web page claims he is a trained “Restorative Justice Practitioner,” looking for ways to keep people out of jail through mediation and counseling. The site says he has also “helped countless justice involved youth and adults,” a euphemism for criminals.

…and Laura El-Bahtity:

Most recently, she worked as a managing attorney in Buffalo’s liberal Legal Aid Bureau, which helps criminals get out of jail. “As a public defender, she witnessed first hand the disparities and challenges her clients faced in the criminal justice system and in re-entering the community,” the [Department of Corrections and Community Supervision] website states.

With moonbats in charge, the goal is not to keep the innocent safe. It is to erase “disparities” caused by the rampant black criminality their ideology encourages.

The Empire State is becoming an unlivable hellhole because representatives of the bad guys are in charge. New Yorkers voted their way into this mess, but thanks to the Democrat Death Spiral causing so many nonmoonbats to escape the state (including Yours Truly), it may be too late to vote their way out.

But at least the parole board is plenty diverse, as you might imagine.

Dog Torturer in Drag

People aren’t the only victims of transsexual violence. Sometimes animals fall victim, as in this case:

A Detroit woman is facing animal torture charges after she stabbed her dog and posted footage of the wounded animal online, police say.

Jordan Love, 29, of Detroit, was charged with the killing and torturing of animals in the second degree as well as abandoning and cruelty to four to ten animals when she was arrested almost 700 miles away from her home…

Three dogs and four cats were rescued from the suspect’s home and taken to the Detroit Animal Care and Control shelter.

Nowhere in the report is it mentioned that the “Detroit woman” is a man. The original story at the Independent leads off with a mugshot of Mr. Love sporting a 2-day beard, but the MSN version deletes this and offers no indication that he is not really a woman.

Get a load of this self-congratulatory note found at the bottom of the MSN though not the original version:

Since 1986, The Independent has campaigned for what we believe in, not what we are told to believe, with integrity, inclusion, innovation and independence as our guiding principles.

It’s anyone’s guess what they mean by “integrity,” but the word “inclusion” is confirmation that they consciously sacrifice veracity to moonbattery, as they demonstrate by calling Love a woman and using the wrong pronouns.

Establishment information gatekeepers have marginalized themselves. By now, everyone knows they deliberately mislead us on behalf of an agenda disgusting enough to put a vulture off its lunch. Fortunately, alternatives are emerging.

No British Need Apply to Become British Cops

Under the control of moonbats like Two-Tier Keir Starmer, the British government is hostile to the British people. Police enforce the government’s will, so this should come as no surprise:

West Yorkshire Police (WYP) is currently preventing white British candidates from applying for jobs as recruits to its police constable entry programmes.

WYP is the fourth largest police force in the UK.

“Under-represented” groups, on the other hand, can lodge their applications early.

“Under-represented” translates to “people the ruling class prefers to the native population.”

WYP claims the policy is to ensure that “diverse communities” are represented by the officers serving them.

For once they are telling the truth. In case Britain’s survival instinct kicks in and the crap starts to hit the fan, authorities want to be sure the loyalty of police is to the “diverse communities” they have imported rather than to the British people.

[W]histleblowers said … ethnic minority candidates were being coached through the application process, including interviews.

Minority candidates who express interest in a job via email are assigned police officers from the force’s Positive Action Team (PAT) who mentor them through recruitment.

According to a document the Telegraph got hold of,

PAT officers also conduct the interviews … in a 16-month period, not a single ethnic minority applicant failed the recruitment process.

What qualification could they need other than non-British and preferably non-European status?

According to officers who had worked in the recruitment department,

[E]ntry-level vacancies for new constables and detectives were marked internally with an “H”, meaning “Hidden”, on the force’s computer system.

That meant the jobs were at that stage only open to ethnic minority candidates. They would become open to white British candidates at a much later stage in the process.

Sometimes recruiters get desperate when they can’t fill vacancies.

[A] whistleblower told The Telegraph he was told to begin processing ethnic minority candidates before the window for white British applicants had even been opened.

To quote a great Briton, “The smallest worm will turn being trodden on.” If a worm can turn, so can the British people.

Austrian Catholic Education Includes Ramadan Songs

It seemed mass immigration would turn Austria into a warzone resembling 1980s Beirut once Muslims achieve the numbers to drive out kafirs. But maybe not. Maybe the great country that gave us Mozart and Haydn will knuckle under without fighting to preserve its existence. Already Catholic education entails singing Ramadan songs.

Via Allah’s Willing Executioners:

Outraged parents are wondering why their children were forced to sing a religious Islamic song in Catholic religious education lessons.

‘Ramadan is the most beautiful time of the year’ is one line of a Ramadan song that the children in a fourth grade primary school had to sing at the behest of their religion teacher. The school is not in Cairo in Egypt, Tehran or somewhere in Syria, but in Salzburg’s Flachgau region.

The song is entitled “Ramadan Rap.”

A mother was asked by her daughter why “Allah is so big” and was annoyed to have to explain to her “that we have our God and not Allah.”

Incidentally, there is said to be only one pupil of Muslim faith in the class in question – a rarity these days…

Imagine what kids will be taught when infidels are in the minority.

Gay Muslims Corrupt Kids via Lawfare

The moonbat–Muslim alliance makes for strange bedfellows. The partners have a common enemy that both are committed to eradicating: Western Civilization. As there is not much other common ground, attempts to mix liberalism and Islam come off as surreal:

Advocates for Trans Equality Education Fund (A4TE) filed a friend-of-the-court brief with the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of eight organizations including Queer Crescent, Al-Wāsi’ Collective, Atlanta Unity Mosque, Queer Muslims of Boston (QMOB), and other groups with LGBTQI+ Muslims among their members in support of Montgomery County [Maryland] Public Schools’ decision to include LGBTQI+-inclusive storybooks in elementary language arts classes.

If people devoted to leftism can claim to be Christian, why can’t people devoted to LGBTism claim to be Muslim?

Muslims and moonbats of the LGBT persuasion have one other thing in common. They both tend to be crybullies who weaponize phony victimhood:

“In a country where Muslims and LGBTQI+ students alike are being targeted simply for being who they are, it is more important than ever that our taxpayer-funded public schools are learning environments that are safe and respectful of all students no matter who they are or what they believe,” said Gabriel Arkles, Advocates for Trans Equality Co-Interim Legal Director.

The environment is to be “safe and respectful” so long as student beliefs comply with wokeism — which they will if they have been installed in accordance with the demands of A4TE militants, who don’t want children to be able to opt out of homosexual indoctrination.

Meanwhile, where Islam holds sway:

USA Defends Free Speech in UK

Democrats claim they are exerting “soft power” by wasting our money on silly crap like Sesame Street in Iraq. If they actually wanted to exert America leverage to advance freedom throughout the world, they would follow the example of the Trump Administration.

Via Revolver News:

Western nations love to pretend they’re the gold standard of freedom and that all-important precious democracy—but lately, countries like the UK are looking a lot more like the regimes we used to fight against. …

Trump’s new plan is to put economic pressure on these so-called allies and force them to respect real human rights, starting with free speech.

Via Daily Express:

Keir Starmer’s hopes of agreeing a free trade deal with the US could be at risk over a free speech row. The US state department issued a statement [March 30] saying it was “concerned about freedom of expression in the United Kingdom” …

[A] source familiar with trade negotiations told The Telegraph there should be “no free trade without free speech”.

Readers will recall JD Vance’s historic speech at the Munich Security Conference in February, calling out Western Europe for suppressing speech moonbats don’t want to hear:

Others in the Trump Administration are on the same page. The Secretary of State backed up Vance firmly:

The USA and UK have enjoyed a special relationship going back generations. We fought in two world wars largely for its sake. It is based not merely on shared language and history but on shared values. That’s why the Trump Administration is defending our friendship by calling out the betrayal of these values, which prominently include freedom of speech and thereby freedom of thought.
