Seven Years Max in Cop Killing

If you want more of something, you subsidize it — or in the case of murdering police officers, punish it as mildly as the public will tolerate. As Chicago succumbs to the Democrat Death Spiral, the public will tolerate even this:

A Chicago man who was charged over the murder of police officer Ella French has been offered a plea deal that will see him jailed for just seven years.

That is, 7 years maximum. The system is run by sympathetic progressives. Eric Morgan will be out much sooner, possibly as soon as people stop paying attention.

French, 29, was shot dead in the West Englewood neighborhood on August 7, 2021 during a routine traffic and cop Carlos Yanez was severely wounded but survived his injuries.

Morgan is racially correct. In contrast, French was white. Thus the extra soft kid gloves.

Morgan was accused of handling the murder weapon allegedly used by his brother Emonte and was charged with aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, unlawful use of a weapon by a felon, and obstruction of justice.

Eric Morgan was on probation at the time he participated in the murder. Not that it matters in Chicago.

The moonbats in charge have spat on Ella French’s grave before. Readers may recall that they suspended her after she had been murdered over technicalities in a separate incident with racial implications. Everything a white police officer does in a place like Chicago has racial implications.

The liberal establishment tolerates cop killing because it is consistent with woke orthodoxy. Why Americans tolerate liberal rule is harder to explain.

Dictionary.com Has Newspeak Dictionary Updates

Updates to the Newspeak Dictionary are inflicted not only through educrats in the moonbat fever swamps comprising academia, but on a more direct basis via mainstream institutions like Dictionary.com. LGBT activists celebrate the further corruption on the English language in subservience to their cause:

Dictionary.com has added eight LGBTQ+ terms to its latest official update.

These include:

diverse-owned: (adjective) (of a business) owned by someone who is part of a group historically underrepresented in entrepreneurship, such as women, ethnic or racial minorities, LGBTQ+ people, etc.

gay marry: (verb) to marry a person of the same gender.

polysexual: (adjective) noting or relating to a person who is sexually attracted to people of various genders, but not necessarily to people of all genders.

autoromantic: (adjective). noting or relating to a person who primarily feels romantic attraction to and desire for themselves, as opposed to other people.

At least psychiatrists dealing with the severely mentally ill might have a use for some of these terms.

The war on pronouns continues:

To make Dictionary.com more inclusive, the website’s lexicographers rewrote entries to replace gendered pronouns with gender-neutral pronouns or to avoid using a pronoun at all.

Moonbattery is the offspring of postmodernism, a fundamental tenet of which is that “reality” is constructed through language, and thereby can be controlled by controlling language. Stand by for further linguistic perversion as social engineers reconstruct reality to reflect their ideology.

French Support for Climate Change Travel Restriction

It is hard to say what is more alarming: French contempt for fundamental liberties like freedom of movement or the national collapse in IQ suggested by this:

A new poll shows that a shocking number of French citizens support banning people from flying more than four times in their lives due to climate change.

A poll from research firm Consumer Science and Analytics Institute (CSA) found that 41% of citizens would support such a limit. That number rose to 59% support among 18-24-year-olds.

Anyone who believes that the weather has recently become a problem and we can fix it by forbidding people from traveling is encouraged to get in touch regarding a bridge I am selling that crosses the East River.

It is unclear whether anyone in France is dumb enough to believe that the travel restrictions would apply to the ruling class as it jets around the globe to climate conferences.

Let’s not single out France. The epidemic of stupidity that is both cause and effect of moonbattery is worldwide:

Climate activists across the globe have pushed for wide-ranging restrictions aimed at reducing carbon emissions, from limiting car travel to banning plastic straws.

Banning plastic straws. Because the weather. Reasoning with people who swallow leftist climate ideology is not an option.

Profiles in Democrat Rule: Jamaal Bowman

To be ruled by Democrats is to have your life hemmed in and micromanaged by people of the caliber of Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), who yesterday pulled a fire alarm to delay the vote on a stopgap spending bill:

The wild incident in the Cannon Building was caught on camera and confirmed by several witnesses.

He can’t deny it, so he presents this defense:

[Bowman] insisted to reporters afterward that he pulled the alarm handle because he thought it would open the door.

Pleading extreme stupidity does have a ring of truth, but if Bowman is cognitively dysfunctional to the point of what we once called severe mental retardation, he needs to be removed from office for the good of the country — as with Joe Biden and John Fetterman.

Lied Bowman,

“I want to be very clear, this was not me, in any way, trying to delay the vote. It was the exact opposite — I was trying urgently to get to a vote, which I ultimately did.”

The move came as Democrats were desperately employing tactics to delay the vote, including Democratic Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (Brooklyn/Queens) using his privilege to make a speech and forcing a vote on a motion to adjourn.

If the tactic is good enough for campus totalitarians who want to prevent conservative speakers from being heard, it is good enough for congressional Democrats. The leftist motto “by any means necessary” has been updated to “by any means immediately expedient.”

Creating a false fire alarm is punishable by up to 6 months in jail in the District of Corruption. Illegally obstructing congressional proceedings is a felony. Bowman could also be charged with obstruction of justice, a charge that was applied after January 6.

But there’s no need to worry about Bowman rotting away in solitary in one of DC’s Third World jails like some January 6 protester. If laws applied to powerful Democrats, Biden would be in Leavenworth.

Washington State Is Great Place for Sex Offenders

Sex offenders have a friend in the liberal establishment. This is especially true in deep blue states where social engineers have no significant resistance — like Washington:

Washington’s Sex Offender Policy Board is working with the state’s Sentencing Guideline Commission in an attempt to roll back restrictions and sentence guidelines for sex offenders…

This is on the heels of community blowback from Washington Democrats including Governor Jay Inslee and Attorney General Bob Ferguson, releasing level 3 sex offenders, those deemed the “worst of the worst” and most likely to re-offend from high-security facilities to halfway houses in unsuspecting neighborhoods.

Additionally, at the end of the last legislative session, Democrat Governor Jay Inslee line-item vetoed a provision that would have informed neighbors if such an individual was to be placed in their community.

In 2020, Jay Inslee ran for president as a single-issue candidate hyping the global warming hoax. Looks like he’s branching out.

As always with progressives’ sexual agenda, children are in the crosshairs:

A draft of the recommendations for the Model Penal Code obtained by The Post Millennial from a Sept. 21 meeting reveals that the entities are claiming that “those convicted of a sex offense have some of the lowest recidivism rates compared to individuals convicted of a non-sex offense” adding “This is also true for individuals convicted of sex offenses against children.” The document did not cite the pertinent data.

This is likely because the pertinent data has not yet been fabricated. But it will be, just as it has been in support of other liberal causes like the fictional climate emergency and the transsexualization of children.

Brad Meryhew is the chair of the committee and a defense attorney who represents people who have been charged with sex crimes.

Under Democrat rule, criminals and their representatives are in charge.

Treason Enables Largest Invasion in Human History

We live in historic times. The most massive invasion in human history is taking place before our eyes:

Was the second Persian invasion (480-479 BC) of Greece, where over 500,000 forces were deployed by King Xerses, the largest invasion? How about the D-Day deployment of 1.1 million Allied troops? Wrong on both counts. The largest in history is over 7 million primarily young military-age males, unvetted, illegally crossing into the US; Joe Biden is their de facto commander, and DHS Secretary Mayorkas is Chief of Staff. At the current pace, over 10 million will have entered the US by the end of Biden’s term.

An invasion on this scale requires not merely surrender or even complicity but the active assistance of those ruling the victim country:

• Border Patrol agents have been videoed cutting through razor wire at the southern border and allowing migrants to enter the US

• Texas Governor Greg Abbott had the wire installed as a deterrent to those looking to make the crossing over the Rio Grande and into the state

• Border crossings have risen to 8,000 a day in the week ending September 22, according to the Washington Office of Latin America

Death camps are so 20th century. To go with our soft tyranny, we now have soft genocide. The end result is the same, but for some reason it engenders less resistance.

Unless rule of law is restored quickly, starting with the law against treason, America will be extinguished by the leftists who chose Joe Biden as their figurehead, as Americans are displaced out of existence.

January 6 Prosecutor Arrested for Knife Assault

Our ruling class is morally degenerate to the point of criminality, making a road rage incident that happened amid stopped traffic in Tampa on Tuesday emblematic. Police say Patrick Scruggs bashed through a car window to stab a man repeatedly:

Two Good Samaritans had also stopped and evidently startled him awake. Authorities say the eventual victim drove forward, hit the Good Samaritan’s car, then drove into Scruggs’ path.

Scruggs allegedly responded knife in hand, inflicting serious injuries on the guy in the car and menacing the good Samaritans.

Scruggs’s previous claim to fame was working for 10 years as a federal prosecutor.

He just left that job for private practice, but while he served the US attorney’s office in Tampa, he helped on high-profile cases, including that of Adam Johnson, who stole the lectern from Nancy Pelosi’s office during the capitol insurrection [sic].

The good news is that Scruggs has come to believe in due process:

Disney Employees Busted in Human Trafficking Operation

It is no secret that monsters have been gravitating toward Disney and public schools due to the emphasis both place on the perverse sexualization of children. So it comes as no surprise that those arrested in a Florida human trafficking operation include three Disney employees and a teacher.

[Those] arrested included Russell Rogers from Winter Haven, Florida, who was accused of negotiating to have sex with a prostitute.

Rogers, who is married with three children, is also the athletic director at Vanguard School and a teacher at Auburndale High School. …

Meanwhile three Disney employees, Kenneth Green, Marquis Nixon and Carlos Ro were also arrested in the operation for soliciting prostitutes.

As for those charged with human trafficking:

Freddy Escalona, 30, and Maria Guzman, 36, were charged with human trafficking and deriving proceeds from prostitution.

Both were in the country illegally. A border deliberately left undefended has its uses for some.

Although children may not have been involved this time, they often are. There is no shortage of prostitutes in the USA, but as with fentanyl, meeting the demand for underage prostitutes can require moving the goods across the open border.

No wonder the liberal establishment was so adamantly opposed to the movie Sound of Freedom that Bloomberg dispatched an actual pedophile activist to trash it. The degenerate ruling class does not want attention paid to human trafficking. It would crimp the lifestyle of those with certain preferences. Love is love!

If the stuff you see on TV makes you sick, imagine what is going on behind the scenes, as social engineers relentlessly define deviancy downward. A climate of moral decline will breed unspeakable crimes.

Princeton Offers Program in Becoming a Drag Queen

The cost of attending Ivy League Princeton is $83,140 per year for undergraduates. For the money, you get credentials that allow you to pursue a career — like being a drag queen:

A new “Drag University” program launched at Princeton University will train students in the “artform.” …

Throughout the 2023-24 school year, enrolled participants will cover an array of topics, including the history of drag, “Sewing 101,” choreography, face painting, photoshoots and other topics, according to the program’s registration form.

You can see why those who use college to defer adulthood might want taxpayers to pick up the tab, as Joe Biden insists in defiance of the Supreme Court.

Any institution that falls to the Long March of Moonbattery will be degraded into farce and destroyed. The Ivy League has been no exception.

Profiles in Democrat Rule: Jasmine Crockett

Democrats are not a threat to democracy; their opponents are. By the same token, it is not the Biden crime family that is criminal, but Biden’s political opposition. Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) explains:

What Jasmine actually explains is why the franchise is overbroad and should be limited to those who are cognitively functional.

No wonder Gavin Newsom has ruled out replacing ChiCom asset Dianne Feinstein with one of the 94% of Americans who are not black women. It shouldn’t be hard to find a Jasmine Crockett somewhere in California, and who would dare criticize an explicit Affirmative Action selection? You don’t hear establishment voices questioning Ketanji Brown Jackson’s fitness to sit on the Supreme Court.

Biden Croaks That Opposition Is Threat to Democracy

Dark Brandon is back:

Biden on Thursday called his once-and-perhaps-future opponent Donald Trump a direct threat to American democracy in the most forceful condemnation of the former president and the MAGA movement he has delivered since he took office.

Meanwhile,

Trump, a heavy favorite to win the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, faces federal and state indictments accusing him of using various levers of power to try to overturn his loss in the 2020 election.

The charges are conspicuously lame and constitute criminalization of political opposition.

Democrats are well known for projecting their sins onto their opponents. Denouncing them as “threats to democracy” is a case in point. Their control of the powerful media makes the threat they pose truly alarming.

Democrat–Transsexual Split?

Democrats have gone out of their way to pander to transsexuals, placing them at the pinnacle of the victimhood hierarchy. But too much is never enough regarding pampering privileged identity groups. Newsweek reports that most transsexuals do not consider themselves Democrats:

While four out of 10 would say they are Democrats, a higher percentage identified as independent or something else.

According to the [KFF/Washington Post Trans Survey], 28 percent said they were independent, while another 20 percent said they identified as something else. Unsurprisingly, only 10 percent identified with the Republican party compared to roughly 45 percent of the national population.

If Asa Hutchinson and Crispy Creme Christie can call themselves Republicans, so can 10% of transsexuals.

No doubt the vast majority of cross-dressers vote for Democrats if only to poke regular Americans in the eye. But there could be an opening for a third party candidate, considering that virtually nobody likes Joe Biden — assuming Democrats wait too long to pull their switcheroo and replace him with Michelle Obama or Gavin Newsom.

[A]s the study reflects, transgender people are more likely to face economic instability and mental health issues, which some feel the Democratic party is not adequately addressing.

They do have unmet needs regarding mental health.

“[Democrats] want me to say something like ‘let trans people be’ and that’s not enough,” Xemiyulu Manibusan Tapepechul, a transgender writer and advocate, told New Republic. “We need trans people to be housed. We need trans people to have food, to have jobs, to be able to find love, to have families, and be safe.”

In Liberalese, to “be safe” is to be protected from resistance and criticism through the suppression of free speech. Helping transsexuals to “have families” after they have destroyed their reproductive abilities through grotesque sex change procedures is a challenge to be met through more science gone wrong.

On the flip side, many formerly left-leaning individuals are finding themselves at odds with some of the more controversial transgender policies, namely allowing children to be treated with puberty blockers if they identify with the opposite gender.

Democrat policy regarding the transsexualization of children is so indisputably evil that it is driving the last decent people out of the party. Unfortunately, there may still be enough left to win elections.
