Politicized Media Reaps Predictable Harvest

Turns out sacrificing credibility so as to impose the liberal agenda entails consequences. From the Hollywood Reporter:

The media sector is facing a crisis unlike anything seen since the 2008 financial mess, with layoffs and cost-cutting at every turn. …

The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Time, Condé Nast, Sports Illustrated, Business Insider, New York Daily News, National Geographic and The Baltimore Sun have all been in the news just this month for layoffs, cost-cutting, labor walkouts or bleak prognosticating.

Zillionaires like Jeff Bezos and private equity firms have been pumping fortunes into leftist publications like the Washington Compost. However, eventually even the richest liberal elitists get tired of throwing good money after bad. Obnoxiously woke Sports Illustrated won’t be the last prominent publication to disappear within the next few years.

Last year was brutal enough:

An estimated 2,681 news industry jobs were lost through the end of November…

Odious WaPo propagandist Tailor Lorenz, possibly best known for doxing Libs of TikTok, is ready to panic:

John Nolte lists a few of the reasons Tailor’s ship is headed for Davy Jones’s locker:

The partisan liars comprising the establishment media have rendered themselves irrelevant by destroying our trust in them. As Abraham Lincoln might say, you can fool some of the people all of the time, as evidenced by their continued willingness to vote Democrat. But if you try to fool all of the people all of the time, they stop listening.

Seattle Pays Black Lives Matter Rioters $10 Million

The reason Black Lives Matter rioters were able to loot, destroy, and vandalize statues of our national heroes throughout the country with minimal resistance from police is that big cities are run by liberals, who are on the same side as the rioters. This was made obvious from the beginning, when soy boy Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey turned over the Third Precinct to be burned down by the mob. It continues to be underscored by municipal moonbats who shower public money upon rioters to reward their behavior.

Philadelphia. New York. Denver. Now Seattle:

The city of Seattle has agreed to pay $10 million to 50 Black Lives Matter protesters who sued the police department for claiming they used excessive force during the riots in 2020, in a settlement announced by attorneys from both sides on Wednesday.

The supposedly excessive force consists of using “aggressive” crowd control devices like flash-bang grenades, foam-tipped projectiles, and blast balls that emit pepper gas.

Traditionally, rioters are shot.

Big Government taxes what it wants less of, like wealth generation. It uses the money expropriated to subsidize what it wants more of, like race riots.

Democrats want rioters to know that their services will be compensated, in case they are needed in 2024 as they were in the last presidential election year.

However, it isn’t only Democrats who side with leftist rioters against the rest of us. Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) infamously marched with a Black Lives Matter mob. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) was instrumental in establishing Juneteenth a.k.a. George Floyd Day as a national holiday to reward the rioters with a celebration of their viewpoint. This obscenity passed the Senate unanimously.

Muslim Terror Attack on Edmonton City Hall Ignored

Considering the resurgence of belligerent Islam, Biden’s refusal to stop financing much less to oppose it, and the wide open southern border, it is surprising that we don’t hear more often about Islamic terror attacks. Then again, given that the media establishment has reduced itself to the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party, maybe it isn’t so surprising. Refer to the moribund canary in the coalmine of moonbattery, Canada:

This was an all-out Gaza-inspired, jihadist terror attack with gunfire and home-made bombs at Edmonton’s City Hall on Tuesday and not a word out of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about it so far. …

Security video shows a man entering Edmonton’s City Hall wearing a Commissionaires Security jacket and carrying a long gun and appearing to shoot it.

Suspect Bezhani Sarvar not only fired off the gun but lit several incendiary devices, according to police.

In addition to the horror of security video showing the armed man during his attack, a taped manifesto which included Arabic greetings was also discovered.

Chances are good you never heard a word about it. The event did not fit the liberal narrative. So we heard about women’s hockey instead.

The governmedia was able to ignore the Edmonton attack because as it turned out, no one was hurt. When Hamas supporters set off a dirty nuke in a major city, pretending it didn’t happen will be more difficult. So they will blame it on Islamophobia.

Biden Succumbs to Senility

Collapse into dementia works the same way as Ernest Hemingway described bankruptcy: gradually and then suddenly. Biden has reached the suddenly phase:

A scary aspect of senility is that, as Biden has demonstrated, it often produces unprovoked bursts of irrational anger:

On a lighter note, senility can also produce wardrobe malfunctions that his staff is evidently too incompetent to correct:

To gauge just how much the degenerate liberal ruling class despises America, consider that it installed this clown in the White House — and has the nerve to run him for reelection.

No reasonable person would vote for Joe Biden. Presumably the ruling cabal is using him like the $5 whore that he is and will dump him at the last moment for a different figurehead who has avoided public scrutiny.

If they do go through with Biden, it will be for the purpose of getting across to us that it makes no difference who we vote for.

Terrorist NYU Prof Denies Hamas Atrocities

Academia under leftist domination has degenerated from liberal bias to teaching flat out lies:

An adjunct NYU professor denied reports that the terrorist group Hamas beheaded babies and raped women in Israel on October 7, telling a group of students last month: “We know it’s not true.”

On the contrary, we know that the crimes against humanity committed by Hamas are real. October 7 has been called the “most well-documented massacre in history.” Even CNN has reported on these fiends systematically raping women and butchering children.

Amin Husain fed students his pro-terrorist lies at a December 5 teach-in organized by Students for Justice in Palestine at The New School and captured on video.

Husain jokes that his profile on the site Canary Mission, which documents people and groups that promote hatred of the USA, Israel, and Jews, “is one of the best biographies I have.”

October 7 blurred the line between sympathetic embedded journalists and actual terrorists. Likewise the line between terrorists and college professors has been blurred:

[His Canary Mission profile] continues: “Husain has claimed to have participated in the first intifada and personally visited a leader of the terror group Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ). He has also expressed support for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terror group and glorified its leaders, promoted other terrorists and spread hatred of Israel.”

“Everything they cite. . . is true,” Husain, 48, says at The New School event, prompting laughter from the crowd. …

Born in the West Bank, Husain has boasted in the past of taking part in the First Intifada, which led to the deaths of at least 1,000 Palestinians and more than 100 Israelis from 1987 to 1993. At a Times Square rally in 2016, he declared, “Living 18 years in Palestine, I was fighting in the first uprising, I was throwing rocks, Molotov cocktails, the like.”

No doubt these are bullet points on the résumé that got him hired by NYU, where he also indoctrinates students on Black Lives Matter and decolonialism, the objective of which is to eradicate Western Civilization.

Husain’s sociopathic activities have not been limited to the Middle East:

Decolonize This Place, the group Husain founded, is famous for its disruptive tactics. In 2020, the group led an assault on the New York City subway system, encouraging followers on social media to “f[***] sh[**] up.” The protests resulted in over $100,000 in damages, including vandalized police stations and turnstiles jammed with honey and glue, according to the New York Post.

Unsurprisingly, Husain took part in Marxist street theater of Occupy Wall Street.

The federal government is not the only swamp that needs a thorough draining if the USA is to be restored to sound health. Washington takes its ideology from academia.

Democrats Blame Trump for Their Border Chaos

Democrat hypocrisy is truly a marvel to behold. Could anything top vax mandate advocates shrieking “My body my choice!” to justify tearing apart someone else’s body in the womb? Demanding medical records to go into a gym while denouncing voter ID as authoritarian? Tyrannical moonbat judge Peter Cahill scolding his victim Derek Chauvin for abusing a position of trust and authority? Democrats attempting to throw their leading opponent off the ballot while yelping about threats to democracy? No. Yet Democrat Chris Murphy (D-CT) tries valiantly:

“I think over the next 24 to 48 hours, they are going to make a decision as to whether they want to do this, or whether the forces surrounding Donald Trump – who want to keep chaos at the border – win,” Murphy said.

As president, Trump made at least some attempt to get the border under control. Under Biden, federal agents are actually tearing down defenses put up by Texas, so that welfare colonists can continue pouring in by the millions upon millions to irrevocably transform this into a different kind of country. But it is Trump who wants chaos, because he has not endorsed a border deal whereby Democrats are bribed with still more of our money handed over to Ukraine.

Mitt Romney characteristically sides with Democrats:

“I think the border is a very important issue for Donald Trump. And the fact that he would communicate to Republican senators and congresspeople that he doesn’t want us to solve the border problem because he wants to blame Biden for it is … really appalling,” said GOP Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah, who has been an outspoken critic of Trump.

Thanks Mitt!

If the Democratic Party and their allies were not fundamentally treasonous, lucrative payoffs for their foreign friends so as to pass a deal that may or may not have an effect on the border would not be required. The largest invasion in human history would stop immediately, because all would agree that the USA must defend its borders, and the military would be deployed as per its purpose.

Mandatory Race Hate at University of Wisconsin

Not since the fall of the Third Reich has a society so aggressively imposed an ideology based on race hate:

A mandatory orientation for first-year University of Wisconsin Law School students denounced “whiteness” and ripped “colorblindness” as a sinister racist tool, according to reports.

Racists are politically unclean and are to be unpersoned. If you don’t agree that everything should be viewed through the Cultural Marxist prism of race, you are a racist.

Students were given preparatory literature beforehand to acquaint them with the session’s imperatives.

One section reminded white students they benefit from racial oppression regardless of their correctional efforts — and that “there are no exceptional white people.”

Don’t waste your admiration on George Washington, James Madison, Alexander the Great, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Leonardo da Vinci, William Shakespeare, Plato, Nikola Tesla, Galileo Galilei, Isaac Newton, Marie Curie, the Wright Brothers, or any other pale people. They benefitted from racial oppression by belonging to the race hated by our liberal overlords. Therefore they were not exceptional.

No white person could be exceptional; to be white is to be racist and therefore a blemish on the planet.

Permitting society to be dominated by people who vociferously hate us for our race will not end well, even if most of them are white themselves.

Pakistan Shows the Way on Illegal Immigration

To save themselves from increasing violence and eventual obliteration, first Western nations need to defend their borders from the ongoing tsunami of unassimilably numerous foreign invaders. Then they need to repair the damage that has already been inflicted. It can be done. Fed up with Afghan suicide bombers, Pakistan shows the way:

Pakistan has repatriated over half a million foreign nationals who had been living illegally in the country in just three months, the country’s interior ministry has told the Senate.…

The interior ministry estimated around 1.73 million Afghan nationals had no right to reside in Pakistan and warned they would be tracked down, detained, and forcibly removed from its territory should they not comply with the request voluntarily. …

The move was heavily criticized by human rights advocacy groups…

Too bad.

All that is needed is for a country to be run by people who wish it well, rather than wanting it to be “fundamentally transformed” through demographic displacement.

Gun Crime and Stolen Guns

Democrats bark that we must be deprived of our right to bear arms because guns are used to commit crimes. This ignores that lawfully owned guns are often used to prevent crime. Guns used in crimes tend not to be lawfully owned, as stats from Ammo.com confirm:

• Only 1.3% of criminals used a firearm that was purchased from [a dealer with a Federal Firearms License (FFL)] during the commission of a crime, based on a 2016 survey

• 89% of inmates reported that they possessed a firearm during the commission of a crime that was not obtained at a retailer (FFL Dealer)

• 56% of inmates arrested with a firearm at the time of their crimes stated they had stolen it

Click through for detailed stats and graphics.

Criminals don’t worry about gun laws. They steal their guns or buy them on the black market anyway. There are an estimated 400,000,000 guns in the USA. Criminals will always have access to them.

Gun laws render the law-abiding defenseless against criminals, to whom gun laws do not apply. Yet again we see that Democrats side with criminals against regular Americans.

World Health Organization Comes After Agriculture

While some globalist moonbats target nonessentials like coffee, others cut to the chase. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, an actual communist and head of the UN’s World Health Organization, declares that our “food systems” offend the climate:

Remember how the World Health Organization handled Covid? Imagine these people taking control of agriculture on a worldwide basis to ensure that it complies with their ideology.

Lefty icon Mao Zedong killed tens of millions of his own people by starvation. The kooks comprising the United Nations would starve billions.

Literally all human activity creates the harmless carbon emissions that are regarded as unclean in the moonbat religion. That’s why CO2 is bad, not because anyone really believes it makes the weather be a problem.
