Equity is how it’s going to be distributed.
In reality, the hardest hit was Asheville, the San Francisco of the East. So reliably blue that they don’t have to worry about it switching. Everywhere around it is Red and like East Palestine, if it’s not a blue state or area, no help is going to be given there either.
Hidden within the depths of COVID-19 vaccines, an enigma awaits discovery: graphene nanobots. These microscopic entities, composed of graphene oxide, possess a dark agenda that threatens human health and autonomy.
In the vast landscape of scientific advancements, one enigma stands out: graphene nanobots. These microscopic entities, crafted from the extraordinary material known as graphene, have captivated the imaginations of researchers and innovators worldwide. Yet, behind their seemingly miraculous potential lies a disturbing and ominous reality—one that could shape the future of humanity in unforeseen and treacherous ways.
Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a two-dimensional lattice, possesses remarkable properties that have paved the way for revolutionary breakthroughs in various fields. Its strength, flexibility, and conductivity make it a coveted material for applications ranging from electronics to medicine. However, the integration of graphene into nanobots takes this technological marvel to a whole new level.
These minuscule robots, driven by the power of nanotechnology, possess the ability to navigate the intricate terrain of our bodies with unprecedented precision. Their potential applications appear endless: targeted drug delivery, tissue repair, disease detection, and even neural interfaces. But as with any profound technological advancement, questions arise about the potential risks and unintended consequences that may accompany these seemingly remarkable creations.
One concerning aspect of graphene nanobots lies in their potential for infiltration and manipulation. As they navigate through our bloodstream, these microscopic agents have the capacity to interact with our cells, tissues, and even our DNA. The prospect of intentional manipulation or unintended side effects raises alarms about the invasion of our bodily autonomy and the potential for irreversible harm.
Furthermore, the implications of the widespread deployment and utilization of graphene nanobots in society are shrouded in ambiguity. The possibility of surreptitious surveillance, tracking, or alteration of our physical and cognitive functions becomes a disconcerting reality. As these nanobots become more integrated into our daily lives, the line between human agency and technological control blurs, giving rise to a dystopian world where our very essence is manipulated and exploited.

Hurricane Helene: Biden, Harris, and the National Media are Missing in Action
Legal Insurrection reported Sunday on the havoc wreaked by Helene across the southeast Friday and Saturday, particularly the devastation that unfolded in western North Carolina and their neighbors in eastern Tennessee by what remained of the hurricane once she hit those areas.
Some mistakenly believe that once a weather event stops being a hurricane or tropical storm, the cities that are still in the path of what’s left are, for the most part, in the clear.
But that is most certainly not the case, as Helene had been downgraded to a tropical depression before she reached the mountains and foothills of North Carolina. By the time she moved on, rain totals for some areas reached as high as nearly 30″, leaving historic flooding in her wake.
The images and videos, of course, are staggering. Heartbreaking. This is an area where it’s not uncommon to hear about mudslides/landslides simply from having a few hours of rain from a random storm that rolled through, causing temporary road closures. Unlike the NC coast, it’s simply not built to endure that much rain and high winds.
As far as national news outlets go, they’re covering it but much of what I’ve seen has been frustrating, as they’re treating it like it was merely a bad storm and not something that quite literally has changed the topography of a large swath of the western part of this state.
As for Biden and Harris, the POTUS was indeed at the beach this past weekend and Harris indeed was participating in swanky fundraisers out west, the optics of which were horrible and which would have been slammed by the Usual Suspects had our president been a Republican. Their insensitivity absolutely should be called out. Their rules and all.
But beyond that, Biden has pretty much done what he needed to do in an official capacity to pave the way for federal assistance. And both he and Harris have issued statements about the situation:
During a rally in Erie, Pennsylvania, on Sunday, Trump accused President Joe Biden of “sleeping” at his beach house in Delaware and dragged Vice President Kamala Harris for holding fundraising events in California over the weekend “when big parts of our country have been devastated by that massive hurricane.”
[…]
Harris has been briefed by Criswell, according to the White House, and Biden has approved disaster declarations for numerous states and major disaster declarations for certain counties that will help provide temporary housing assistance, as well as grants and low-interest loans to help people with home repairs. Both urged the public to take the storm seriously ahead of landfall.
[…]
Biden was at his beach house in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, over the weekend, where he received briefings about Helene’s devastation from Criswell and Homeland Security Adviser Liz Sherwood-Randall, according to the White House pool report. He urged the agencies to speed up the deployment of search and rescue teams into North Carolina, where people are stranded without cell service or electricity.
None of them are red states and so they don’t care. They crucified Bush on Katrina, but at least he went there and sent Federal help.
They are doing as much as they do on the border, less than nothing but let the country disintegrate.
Is college still worth it? According to Newsweek, millions of Americans are just saying “no.”
Why? Because, according to a new poll, many see universities as a place where political agendas replace useful skills, and they walk away with $300,000 in debt that cripples them for life.
In fact, college enrollment is down 2.5 million since COVID-19, while the share of 18- to 26-year-olds working in the trades has gone from 25% pre-pandemic to 31% today.
Meanwhile, a recent Gallup survey found only a third of Americans—of all ages—say they have confidence in universities: 32% said they have little or no faith. That’s a big drop from just a decade ago, when 57% had faith and just 10% did not.
Of those who lost faith, 41% said liberal indoctrination has taken over, while 37% said college doesn’t teach relevant skills. The rest cited the cost.
It’s a theme that people are figuring out that colleges are just indoctrination factories. While there are a few good ones (see the story posted below) and there are a few degrees needed for advanced education, the social bullshit they put students through is being exposed as not worth it.
Also, in the theme of woke that I’ve been on, people are tired of it and a lot of it starts with colleges.
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ former bodyguard revealed the disgraced rap mogul kept tapes of politicians taking part in his infamous ‘freak off’ sessions, and claimed his arrest is tied to an alleged corruption scandal currently gripping New York City politics.
Gene Deal, a former insider who protected Diddy through the 1990s, told The Art of Dialogue podcast that the producer’s indictment could expose high-profile officials and celebrities in the Big Apple.
‘This is all bigger than Diddy,’ he said, without naming who the alleged tapes are of.
He spoke out in the days after Diddy was indicted in New York and charged with racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution, as he now faces the prospect of decades behind bars.
Rot in hell, all of you.
I guess they didn’t need him anymore. They let him get away with it for a long time until his usefulness dried up.

Remember when regular guys were bad and we had to have a majority of anybody except straight, white, Christian men? Well the cows came home.
Captain has received multiple reports that the US Navy oiler USNS Big Horn ran aground yesterday and partially flooded off the coast of Oman, leaving the Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group without its primary fuel source.
First reported on the gCaptain forum and by maritime historian Sal Mercogliano, a leaked video and photos show damage to the ship’s rudder post and water flooding into a mechanical space. US Navy vessels don’t typically transmit AIS signals, so we don’t know the exact location of the ship but a Navy source confirms she is anchored near Oman awaiting a full damage assessment.
Fortunately, no injuries or environmental damage have been reported for the ship. This is significant because the 33-year-old vessel is one of the single-hull versions of the Kaiser-class oilers.
Diversity ruins everything it touches. Get the best you can find instead of a rainbow of everyone so that no one can be offended.
War is hell and we need competent sailors, soldiers and airmen. FJB, Harris and Lloyd Austin
Try denying it now.
By the way, good job on that border. You did nothing other than make our country less safe, more crime, less economically viable and all around worse off.
What a prick. Screwing the public while screwing around, completely doing the opposite of what he was making the public do. They all knew Covid-19 was a hoax.
Dr. Jay K. Varma, New York City’s former top public health advisor during the pandemic, was caught on camera bragging about attending drug-fueled sex parties and dance events, even as he instructed millions of New Yorkers to stay home and socially distance. The bombshell revelations have sparked outrage across the city, with politicians and residents alike accusing the former official of blatant hypocrisy.

The footage, released Thursday by conservative podcaster Steven Crowder, shows Varma, who served under then-Mayor Bill de Blasio, detailing his pandemic escapades, which included hosting a sex party in a hotel room and attending a massive underground dance party beneath a Wall Street bank.
“I had to be kind of sneaky about it,” Varma admits in the video, speaking casually to a woman off-camera. “I was running the entire Covid response for the city.”
At the time, public health officials in New York, like those in cities and countries around the world, were frantically seeking to contain the virus and Covid’s rising death toll by encouraging people to wear masks and avoid large gatherings. New York City schools were abruptly closed beginning in March 2020. Indoor dining in restaurants was forbidden. Masking indoors in public places was mandatory. –NYT
“I’m gonna make it really fu*king hard to be unvaccinated,” Varma told his undercover date. “I actually was the one who convinced the Mayor to make it a mandate[vaccine].”
What a C@cksucker, truly a jerk off for this
As always, Democrats hate the military and law enforcement.
The Air Force finally handed over a trove of documents pertaining to its sweeping “goal” of reducing the number of white male applicants in a popular officer program after spending months stonewalling requests for their release.
Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman C.Q. Brown — at the time the highest-ranking member of the Air Force — issued a memorandum in 2022 that the branch was updating its racial and gender demographic goals for applicants seeking to become officers, in a bid to prioritize “diversity and inclusion.” Internal documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation include a slideshow from 2022 where the Air Force outlines racial and gender quotas and details how it hopes to “achieve” a reduced number of white males in its Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) officer’s applicant program.
The documents reflect the Biden-Harris Pentagon’s intense focus on implementing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies in the armed forces, even as the military continues to combat dwindling morale among its rank-and-file, recruiting and retention shortfalls and low pay.
Those assholes want our country destroyed, starting from within.
DEI and Woke ruin everything they touch.
The Federal Reserve’s decision to cut interest rates marks a new chapter in the D.C. Cartel’s long march toward the bankruptcy of our nation.
Although the Fed’s move to cut rates and expand the money supply may provide some relief from higher interest rates for consumers and businesses, it does so at the expense of fueling the fires of inflation.
With prices for essentials rising over 20%, this move doesn’t prioritize the interests of the American people. Here are the five key things you need to know about the Fed’s rate cut and what it’ll mean for you and your family.
Let’s see, less than 2 months before an election that the deep state is potentially losing, the total debt they have to pay interest on just went over 1 trillion, and it goes on from there.
As Polar Bear Population Explodes, Animal Loses its Climate Crisis Mascot Status
Legal Insurrection readers may recall that in 2019. I covered a book entitled “The Polar Bear Catastrophe that Never Happened” by Dr. Susan Crockford. The University of Victoria professor analyzes the latest data and reviews the questionable values in official estimates, concluding that polar bears are thriving.
Subsequently, she was fired from her position at the university.
However, it didn’t stop what she wrote from being true.
The polar bear, the iconic image of the climate crisis, has entirely lost its eco-activist mascot status. Climate expert Bjorn Lomborg (President of the Copenhagen Consensus and Visiting Fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution) recently examined the numbers in a New York Post piece and came to the same conclusion.
Protesters dressed as polar bears, while Al Gore’s hit 2006 film “An Inconvenient Truth” showed us a sad, animated polar bear floating away to its death.
The Washington Post warned that polar bears faced extinction, and the World Wildlife Fund’s chief scientist even claimed some polar bear populations would be unable to reproduce by 2012.
And then in the 2010s, campaigners just stopped talking about polar bears.
more at the link above, but Al Gore forgot that Polar Bears can swim, dumbass
1 “Seeing someone like yourself” — meaning women seeing a woman running for president and then seeing her defeated, or voting for a vagina.
2. Mr. Trump called (Hillary Clinton) a “nasty woman.”

That this is one of the three major reasons for the 2016 left-wing shift of young American women is truly pathetic. It is further proof of the title of a column I wrote two years ago, “Feminism Has Weakened Women.”
There’s a wild inconsistency here as well: The whole point of feminism, according to feminists, is to have society treat men and women as equals, and equally. Yet feminists simultaneously insist that men treat women with a dose of chivalry or they’re “sexist.”
Well, she is a Cnut.
3. Trump “bragging about sexual assault on the ‘Access Hollywood’ tape.”
The third reason given for young women embracing leftism in 2016 was a recording made in 2005 that came out in 2016. In a private conversation with Billy Bush of “Access Hollywood.
I’ve got news for you. Women let powerful (and rich and famous) men get away with a lot more than they do Johnny on the street. Women sleep with who they want, and men sleep with who they can except the rich and famous.
The girls let him grab them by the puta. Their image of hanging out with the rich and famous lets them lower their guard for certain men. They are to blame, not a rich and famous man talking about it, in private
And it is a testament to the lack of wisdom among a majority of America’s young women that these three foolish reasons propelled them to vote for the ideology that is destroying our country.It is a testament to the lack of wisdom of our age that we think we can know people — let alone judge them — by what they say in private.
And it is a testament to the lack of wisdom among a majority of America’s young women that these three foolish reasons propelled them to vote for the ideology that is destroying our country.
This demographic makes our country weak. They need to use their minds rather than emotions, or at least use both.
Grow up and stop being butt hurt losers. Voting with your va jay jay is the worst reason you could choose, especially for one so unqualified to lead a country.
ABC News is apparently pressing the panic button in the wake of fierce criticism of its Sept. 10 presidential debate between former President Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
A sworn statement by an ABC News whistleblower exposing network bias favoring Harris continues to be in focus regarding “assurances” to the Democrat’s campaign days before the event.
Now David Muir, anchor of ABC’s “World News Tonight” and co-moderator of the debate, is defending his performance during the matchup, as ratings for his evening news broadcast have plunged some 12% in the aftermath.
Yes, they cheated for Kamala, but NBADJT. We knew they were going to cheat and this time got caught before the election.
Turn off the news, your life is better without their lying
Mocking Ensues After Scientific American Endorses Kamala Harris
Back in 2020, the once highly respected Scientific American decided to break with 175 years of editorial tradition and endorse Biden for president, saying:
That is why we urge you to vote for Joe Biden, who is offering fact-based plans to protect our health, our economy and the environment. These and other proposals he has put forth can set the country back on course for a safer, more prosperous and more equitable future.
Subsequently, the magazine has completely lost its grip on sanity, reason, and logic. Since Biden took office, let’s review some of the low-lights from the magazine’s stack of articles.
So, as the 2024 presidential election season enters into the final stretch, it is not surprising that Scientific American’s editorial team throws circumspection and neutrality out the window and endorses Vice President Kamala Harris.

First, we have this: EV Dealers Are So Desperate to Offload Stock That They’re Offering Lease Deals For $20 a Month.
How soft is the new EV car market? Some EV vehicles have been on their lots for so long that they’re offering lease terms so generous, they may as well be giving them away.
A Kia dealer in Virginia only gets a couple of inquiries a month for EVs. The price tag of new vehicles scares them off, says Finance Director Ramon Nawabi. He’s got a few EV 6 SUVs that have been on the lot for six months that Kia is now offering discounted leases on top of the $7,500 EV tax credit “just to move the car,” he says. “In a sense, we’re giving them away.”
That $7500 tax credit helped dealers sell a million EVs in 2022. However, the misnamed Inflation Reduction Act severely limited how that $7500 tax credit could be applied. There are now price caps for EVs ($80,000 for SUVs and trucks; $55,000 for cars), and the batteries must be American-made. Also, the vehicles must be assembled in the U.S. There’s also a cap on the net income of the potential buyer.
But you can avoid the restrictions if you lease a new EV. “That’s allowed car companies or dealers to bundle the $7,500 tax credit savings into the lease financing cost, lowering consumers’ monthly payments,” reports Bloomberg News
Then, the EU mandate on EV’s caused this:
“The EU is in a crisis caused by low consumer demand for EVs and unfair competition from third country EV manufacturers, meaning that the EU industry will not be able to meet these reduction targets. EU industry will have little choice but to significantly cut production, which threatens millions of jobs in the EU, harms consumers, and adversely impacts the EU’s competitiveness and economic security.”
The quote above is an excerpt from a draft European Automobile Manufacturer’s Association (EAMA) document made public this week in a story by Bloomberg. The report was prepared by EAMA in preparation for formally requesting a 2-year delay in EU emissions goals set to take effect in 2025. EU EV makers say they will not be able to meet the idiotic mandate set by the EU’s authoritarian central planners, citing low consumer desire to buy the damn things and “unfair” competition from China.
It’s a reality that should come as no real surprise to anyone, especially since critics of the EU’s central planning literally predicted this very outcome a thousand times.
It’s because people bought them because there was a subsidy. Then they found out that the current technology of an EV is flashy, but not good. It sucks in hot or cold weather and takes too long to charge.
It’s not the panacea that was promised, just another government program, nee mandate that is a failure.
There is not enough electricity nor the grid to support people driving EV’s. They are 3-5 iterations of technology away from being efficient and desirable. They are wealthy peoples salve at feeling good about themselves for the made-up environmental crisis going on.
Let’s also not ignore the fires that they cause and the inability to put them out. They just burn to the ground (or 57,000 gallons of water for the enviro-weenies trying to save the planet – irony and sarcasm there).
So unless they bribe the buyers to get a technology worse than a petroleum powered car, people don’t want them.
Let’s not ignore that the manufacturers lose 10’s of thousands on every car they build (to the tune of a billion and a half loss for Ford alone this year).
So other than to make someone feel good because they are a greentard, there is no reason to buy one, yet. There may be a better iteration in the future, but it isn’t now.
For the record, I drove last weekend for 4 hours in my diesel truck and got 36 MPG. I didn’t hurt a plant or a tree.
Economics and technology say it’s a loser. It’s just another idea by the Enviro-nuts to try and make us do something because they hate petroleum.
EU Mandate here:
The mandate is so utterly unattainable that EAMA makes this projection as part of its application for a delay:
EU rules targeting a CO2 fleet emission of about 95 grams of CO2 per kilometer per vehicle would require automakers to either halt production of about 2 million cars or be exposed to fines that could reach €13 billion ($14.3 billion) for passenger cars, according to estimates by the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association contained in the draft and seen by Bloomberg.
Van manufacturers could also face paying an additional €3 billion for falling short of targets, said the group that’s currently headed by Renault SA Chief Executive Officer Luca de Meo.
“The EU is in a crisis caused by low consumer demand for EVs and unfair competition from third country EV manufacturers, meaning that the EU industry
Nearly three in five young Africans said that they are either very or somewhat likely to consider emigrating to another country in the next three years, according to the African Youth Survey 2024 by Ichikowitz Family Foundation.
As Statista’s Anna Fleck details below, this marks a seven percentage point increase from 2022, when the last survey wave was conducted, likely driven by the improving freedom of movement post-pandemic.
Where young people from Rwanda who are considering emigrating said that it would likely only be temporary (90 percent), those in Nigeria (45 percent), Ghana (44 percent) and Congo Brazzaville (41 percent) were among those more likely to say they would make a permanent move. The 2024 poll included 5,604 people aged between 18 and 24 year olds across 16 countries: Botswana, Cameroon, Chad, Congo Brazzaville, Côte d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania and Zambia.
Main reasons cited as motivations for moving abroad included economic reasons (selected by 43 percent of respondents), education opportunities (38 percent) and due to corruption in respondents’ respective home countries. The latter option, corruption, saw an increase of three percentage points since the survey wave in 2022. In South Africa, corruption was cited as the top reason for young people considering emigrating in 2024 (38 percent) as well as in Gabon (32 percent).
One of the most abundant continents in everything, yet they want out. Why do the worst of them ruin other countries though?
Harvard Launches ‘Introductory’ Math Course for Students Due to Covid Learning Deficit
Harvard Launches New Intro Math Course to Address Pandemic Learning Loss
The Harvard Math Department will pilot a new introductory course aimed at rectifying a lack of foundational algebra skills among students, according to Harvard’s Director of Introductory Math Brendan A. Kelly.

The course, titled Math MA5, will run alongside two established math courses — Math MA and MB — with an expanded five-day schedule.
Kelly said that students in MA5 will meet with “one of two instructors all five days” with “a variety of different activities” on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
More at the link above, but I aced Algebra at 15 and I couldn’t get into Harvard if I tried.
These kids are paying $84000 a year to take high school courses. They are trying to blame it on Covid, but I’ve got news for you. There are a lot of kids who didn’t get behind and aced Calculus and Differential Equations.
Harvard is not an elite school anymore.
My wife was just there and the news was anti-Trump 24/7. They are afraid of Putin attacking she was told, and to have 3 days of supplies on hand. Their media is worse than the ABC moderators of the Trump/Harris debate. They are liberals who hate freedom and what America is. They constantly try to say that their government works better and that the US is a warmonger. Well, that’s not all that wrong when you consider that only Trump didn’t have a war during his administration.
I don’t even go there anymore because of the anti-American/Trump bias. They love idiots like Elizabeth Warren (the bomb they called her) Obama and Biden. They believe everything they are told, most of which is to hate Trump.
The irony is not lost on me because Putin attacked Ukraine in 2022 because they were going to let Ukraine into NATO right next door. He was forced into it by the Biden administration her relatives so love.
Remember, they don’t love Biden really, it’s that the European media hates Trump so much that they’ve brainwashed entire countries. They did love Obama though because he hates America as much as they do.

Now this:
That’s right, they are poking the (actual) bear.
So Russia said:
Here is the translation to this link to an X post that wouldn’t embed, because the truth
Ukraine itself does not have such an opportunity. Only NATO servicemen can program such a weapon.
The neo-Nazi regime has been attacking our territory for a long time, outside the zone of hostilities, carrying out terrorist attacks against civilians and the civil infrastructure of our country. However, such a potential development of the situation will fundamentally change our relationship with the Western camp. If the decision to lift the restrictions is indeed adopted or will be adopted, it will mean that from this moment on, the NATO countries will start a direct war with Russia.
In this case, we will, of course, be forced to make the appropriate decisions with all the consequences resulting from them for the Western aggressors. Our Western colleagues will not be able to avoid responsibility and transfer all the blame to Kiev. As you know, the use of such weapons is possible only when you have access to intelligence data from the US and EU satellites.
The net of it is they are provoking a war before the election and blaming it on Trump. They don’t even get that if they didn’t put the missiles there or not let them into NATO, it could be resolved.
This is from a country that is nearly 100% vaccinated for COVID-19 and other mistakes in life, like socialism.
I cut them off from social media because I can’t take their hate for both Trump and America anymore and their total belief in the lies of their media.
Nevertheless, they love shopping in America as it’s so much cheaper. They wear Levi’s or Carhartt, depending on the fashion at the time. The smokers smoke Marlboro’s and they love Taylor Swift. That and being vaccinated says a lot to me.
American gymnast Jordan Chiles said her “skin color” was part of the reason she lost her Olympic medal, which was intertwined in controversy. She sobbed in her first interview since she lost the bronze medal.
The Olympian gave her first sit-down interview since the Paris Olympics during a panel at the Forbes Power Women Summit 2024 on Wednesday.
The controversy comes after Ana Barbosu from Romania’s team had initially finished with a higher score than Chiles. However, after judges reviewed Chiles’ footage, they changed her score which bumped the American to third place.
When asked about the topic during her interview, the gymnast began sobbing and said her “skin color” was part of the reason she lost.
“To me, everything that has gone on is not about the medal, it’s about, you know, my skin color,” Chiles said.
Funny, skin color didn’t affect the scoring for Simone Biles
She finished 5th and her score was bumped to 3rd. It’s the easy go to though, every time

Italy Seeks Reversal of EU’s 2035 Combustion Engine Ban
By Alberto BrambillaSeptember 07, 2024 at 11:45AM EDT
Bloomberg) — Italian officials said the European Union’s plan to ban sales of new internal combustion engines from 2035 should be reviewed.
“The ban must be changed,” Energy Minister Gilberto Pichetto Fratin said on the sidelines of the Ambrosetti Forum in Cernobbio, on the shores of Italy’s Lake Como, on Saturday.
Pichetto Fratin called the decision by the EU “absurd,” and dictated by an “ideological vision” along with a state-controlled approach to policy-making within the bloc. The plan needs changing in order to reflect different market realities amid the European auto industry’s slowdown, he added.
Industry Minister Adolfo Urso also backed a change, urging the incoming European Commission to anticipate the review of the plan to early 2025, from 2026. “In an uncertain landscape which is affecting German automotive industry, clarity is needed to not let the European industry collapse,” Urso said in Cernobbio.
These greentards are delusional. Carbon and petroleum are not the danger they claim, nor is electricity the panacea they propose
In a 19-word post on X this past Sunday, President Joe Biden admitted that he has been lying to the public for years. It didn’t make news, partly because Biden is now irrelevant. But it should. Because Kamala Harris is now repeating the lie.
“Since I took office,” Biden posted, “we’ve recovered all the jobs lost during the pandemic. And added over 6 million more.”
Add that to the lies from last night
Republicans ‘raced out to buy a crapload of guns because maybe they were finally going to get their chance to shoot a Black person,’ Penzey’s Spices CEO wrote in a customer email.
Just two weeks after a Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based spice company held a “Republicans are Racist” sale over Martin Luther King Jr. weekend, it is dealing with a massive loss of business and openly begging for new customers.
Penzey’s Spices CEO Bill Penzey, who routinely uses his company’s email list to send anti-Republican screeds, sent a newsletter earlier this month in which he accused GOP voters of fantasizing about killing African Americans.
“Remember how Republicans, going against a mountain of evidence to the contrary, once again lied and said BLM [Black Lives Matter] wasn’t a peaceful movement but instead terrorists inciting violence throughout the country and then raced out to buy a crapload of guns because maybe they were finally going to get their chance to shoot a Black person?” he wrote. “What a bunch of racists.”
In a follow-up email Friday, Penzey acknowledged this allegation had cost his business a substantial number of newsletter subscribers.
I was there when the Marialitos washed ashore in Miami. There was crime everywhere until they rounded them up and sent them back.
They wanted to know how many people would comply with a complete re-ordering of their lives based on no science at all, just random orders, some of which bordered on absurdity.
I have long said that Covid 19 was launched by design by a small number of people in the globalist predator class for one reason and one reason only — as a beta test for the coming technocratic new world order.
Now, we’ve got the World Economic Forum coming out and all but admitting that was exactly why the Covid-19 “pandemic” had to happen.
The WEF gleefully posted the following snippet to the “My Carbon” page of its website where they make a pitch for so-called smart cities, which is just another term for 15-minute cities.
The first of three “developments” that the WEF says must be in place before the world can evolve into its utopian vision of “smart and sustainable cities,” is compliance with restrictions on our freedom. It writes:
1. COVID-19 was the test of social responsibility – A huge number of unimaginable restrictions for public health were adopted by billions of citizens across the world. There were numerous examples globally of maintaining social distancing, wearing masks, mass vaccinations and acceptance of contact-tracing applications for public health, which demonstrated the core of individual social responsibility.
They were testing us. That’s what Covid was all about. They wanted to see how many of us would give up our individual freedom and individual sovereignty by complying with a “new normal” that consisted of restrictions bordering on the absurd.
Why, for instance was it “safe” to shop at Lowe’s or Home Depot but unsafe to shop at a small business or attend church? Why was it OK to go to strip clubs in Michigan but you couldn’t buy seeds for a garden?
story
Those MF are trying to rule the world. A lot of people lined up like it was the 1930’s in Germany and were sheep to wear a mask, get a jab and stay home.
Don’t fall for this again and do the opposite of what they tell you to do. They are Satan’s spawn
Most except the real sheep now know what a farce the lockdown, masks, and the jab were. We have Sweden which didn’t lock down and got over it quickly to compare to. The media won’t tie it to the election, but the evidence remains.
Well, some are waking up, like this:
On March 27th 1913, the population of Columbus, Ohio, started running. Afterwards, nobody was exactly sure why or when. James Thurber, the comic novelist, was a schoolboy in the town and recalled the incident in a famous article some years later. He said that perhaps it was simply someone suddenly remembering an appointment to meet his wife, and then a paperboy in high spirits joined in, and then perhaps a portly man of affairs broke into a trot, and before you knew it, the entire high street, from the union depot to the courthouse, was running. After the run had begun, people began to look for a justification, and the hubbub, the noise, eventually formed into one word: the dam had burst. Nobody stopped to point out that there was zero evidence of it having burst and that, anyway, even if it had, it could not have possibly reached Columbus, Ohio. People ran on for several more miles and then, eventually, sheepishly returned to the town. Here is the point: Thurber said that years passed before anyone dared mention it. Everyone carried on with their business as usual — and woe betide you if you made some jokey remark about the day the dam did not break.
It seems to me that we are in a very similar place with the lockdowns. Then, too, we saw herd instinct at its worst: people joining in one after another without stopping to think. It is an interesting counterfactual to ask what would have happened if the first sign of the pandemic had not been in autocratic China but in a country where lockdowns, the confinement of the entire population, would have been unthinkable — let us say if it had started in the Netherlands or Canada or somewhere. It started in China; then there was the attempt by the Italian Government to stop people moving from north to south; and then, suddenly, lockdowns, which had never been foreseen in any previous planning document, were considered a standard tool of public policy overnight. We were panicked into a response that no one had foreseen prior to those days — by shrieking broadcasters such as Piers Morgan, night after night, saying, “Why aren’t we copying these other countries?”, and all the signs up saying, “Covidiots go home” — and, rather like the people of Columbus, Ohio, we did not stop to think, and we still do not want to go back and ask whether it was justified or proportionate.
I like the part about Covidiots, those were the sheep who lined up like it was 1930 in Germany to do what they were told. Maybe we are finally waking up
It’s because they are silenced by political correctness. You can’t criticize Muslims or any anti-Israeli faction.
Don’t come trashing the United States and conservative politicians about how females are treated and ignore the damage being done in the rest of the world.
Come November, the only candidate really sticking up for all people is the man. It’s just that no feminists, and especially liberals want to acknowledge that (I guess I’m redundant there). They’d rather vote with their private parts instead, and bitch about men. It fits the narrative that way but doesn’t help anyone, especially those most in need.
These Are The 10 Worst Countries In The World For Women
High maternal mortality rates, low education rates, and elevated rates of intimate partner violence were some key contributors to the low overall scores. Proximity to conflict also hindered the group’s rankings.
The average index score for the group, at 0.38, is around half the global average of 0.65.
Overall, the status of women deteriorated in 13 countries globally from 2017 to 2023. Somalia (#169), Haiti (#167), and Eswatini (#170) underwent the largest declines.

The NYPD has just revealed to the New York Post just how bad migrant crime has gotten in the Big Apple and it’s unreal.
According to the NYPD, out of all arrests for crimes like assault, robbery and domestic violence, 75% of them are from illegal immigrants.
That number is above 60% in Queens.
And the biggest contributing factor, aside from the massive influx of illegals into the city, is the fact that New York is a sanctuary city.
NY is being exposed for the shit hole that it has become. Thank you liberals, for nothing.
Here’s a life lesson for all you sports fans out there: If you love your team so much that you’ll promise to eat dog poop out of a solo cup if they lose, you better be ready to eat dog poop out of a solo cup when they lost
This man has deleted his X account after going viral for this post:
And here’s what happened:
Eat shit and die.
Three stories to pick from here:
1. Top Oncologist Raises Alarm: Every New Cancer Patient Is Under 45
A leading oncologist is raising the alarm about the staggering surge in cancer cases among young people.
North Carolina‘s Duke University oncologist Dr. Nicholas DeVito is warning that “every new patient” who now comes to his clinic is under 45 years old.
Dr. DeVito says he and his colleagues have experienced a complete demographic switch in recent years.
Based on what he’s seeing every day, talking to patients on the ground and analyzing the data, DeVito is now issuing a red alert to warn the public about the phenomenon.
2. Dutch Scientists Under Attack for Exposing Links Between Covid Shots and Excess Deaths Surge:
A group of leading scientists in the Netherlands has become the target of coordinated attacks after they published a study exposing links between Covid mRNA shots and the global surge in excess deaths.
The Dutch researchers recently published the results of their study into the excess mortality rates in the Western World recorded from 2020 through 2022.
The study’s paper had been submitted a year ago but faced unprecedented resistance from the scientific establishment.
The paper was finally published last month.
Since it has been published, the authors have been subjected to a coordinated media smear campaign.
3. Top Study Warns of Continued Surge in Cancer Deaths
Leading oncology experts are warning that surging cancer deaths are going to continue rising over the next few years.
Cancer cases in men are predicted to rise by 84 percent by 2050, a new study has revealed.
Deaths from the disease are also expected to almost double in the next 25 years from today, despite surging dramatically in recent years already.
During a study using official data from 185 nations, scientists concluded that the global burden of cancer in younger men is only going to get worse.
An estimated 19 million cancer cases are predicted to be diagnosed in 2050 if current trends continue.
The figure is a staggering increase from the 10 million recorded in 2022.
Cancer deaths are predicted to soar even higher, going from 5 million in 2022 to over 10 million by 2050, a rise of 93 percent.
Researchers note that cancer deaths had already carried to unprecedented levels in 2022 following a spike that began in 2021, shortly after Covid mRNA shots were rolled out for public use.
There is a lot more to read at each of the links. That I ran across this pattern is worrisome for those who got jabbed.
A Florida doctor, Ishwari Prasad, was placed on probation and fined $7,500 after two colonoscopy procedures where he failed to adhere to the standard medical protocols, according to the Florida Board of Medicine. The incidents occurred in June 2023 at a Tampa surgery center.
During one procedure, Prasad, who is hearing-impaired, did not wear his hearing aids, supposedly preventing him from hearing the patient’s screams that he was not fully sedated, according to officials. Additionally, Prasad allegedly delegated a portion of the procedure to a surgical tech who was not a licensed doctor, further compounding the issues during the surgeries.
Prasad has been restricted from performing gastroenterology procedures following a settlement where he neither admitted nor denied the allegations of medical malpractice. He has been practicing medicine since the early 1980s, with a license issued in Florida in 1990.

It never stops. What happened to giving kids an actual education instead of indoctrination? It would help them a lot more in life and cost a lot less. Cut the crap.
A couple of months ago, MIT became the first elite university to eliminate DEI statements in faculty hiring:
MIT Drops Forced DEI Statements: “They Don’t Work”
3 months ago · 23 likes · 2 comments · Alex Newman



…and then just yesterday, MIT became the first major university to reveal the ethnic composition of its incoming undergraduate class since SCOTUS ruled against affirmative action last year. Unsurprisingly, asians showed a large (7%) gain, while blacks (-10%) and hispanics (-5) saw large drops. Whites were not impacted. See the black line plummet:

MIT cuts black freshmen share from 15% to 5%

IQ purists argue this 15% —> 5% black decrease doesn’t go far enough, lol, maintaining that ‘‘less than 1% of those admitted would be black if admissions were based purely on academic qualifications.’’

Denmark, Finland, and Norway keep impeccable statistics.
I heard from a scientist in Denmark that the death stats were flat until the shots rolled out.
She also said that Denmark stopped reporting daily deaths and has switched to reporting deaths quarterly. Does having less information lead to better health outcomes? Or are they hiding something? X
Similarly, in Norway, they stopped reporting COVID stats due to budget cuts; it had absolutely nothing to do with the numbers getting worse and worse (14X more COVID, 3X more hospitalisations, 3X as much death).
Here are the numbers. You decide. I think the numbers are pretty incriminating.

Excess deaths are relative to start of the period and excess is measured relative to a 2017-2019 baseline.
If what they are doing is working, cumulative excess deaths should turn around and fall back to zero. But this just doesn’t happen.
Deaths monotonically increase. This means that what they did either had no effect or made things worse.
How they can possibly claim success with numbers like these is a mystery to me.
The deaths started getting worse after the COVID shots rolled out. If it wasn’t the COVID shots, what is fueling the monotonic rise in excess deaths?
They lined up like Sheep to get jabbed and it started killing people. It will continue to kill them for years. I can’t believe they fell for this as an entire country. My wife has relatives there and they thought I was crazy for not getting jabbed. Who’s laughing now?
That is a pretty low statement about their masculinity and leadership ability of their own.
Some people don’t even realize part of the polarizing effect of Trump is that he is a true Alpha Male. Yes, that kind, the ones that the girls want. They become leaders and don’t have to announce when they enter the room. Oh, they say they hate it, but it is a characteristic that girls want in a man. They don’t want another pussy, they already have one.
Listen to the story:
That is the equivalent of calling a guy a pussy, and not dateable. I knew it when they have trannies and pussies like Pete Buttigieg, not to mention the rest of the wimps who act like females. Some dress like them and the Dems are promoting this in the military.
In a jaw-dropping moment on CNN, anchor Dana Bash inadvertently labeled male Democrat supporters as beta males during a segment meant to praise the party’s outreach to men.
Bash was discussing the Democratic Party’s efforts to appeal to male voters when she said the quiet part out loud.
“But they are doing so in trying to put forward male figures, Tim Walz being one of them, Doug Emhoff last night, who can speak to men out there who might not be the testosterone-laden, gun-toting guy who wants to listen to Hulk Hogan,” Bash explained.
In other words, they have a lineup of losers.
It’s not like they haven’t had Alpha men. Clinton and JFK are two examples.
Men and women recognize one worldwide. It’s why no one respected Obama or Biden on Foreign policy. No one is afraid of a beta male or wants to be around one.
No one, not Putin, Xi, or even Kim Jong Un messed with Trump. They owned the last 2 Democrat Presidents.
Think I’m making this up? Look at this article:
I’m a liberal — it’s hard to find masculine men to date who aren’t conservative
Excerpt:
A single woman has made waves for lamenting on TikTok that all the chivalrous, masculine men in her dating orbit are conservative.
“As a liberal woman, it is really hard to find a man who is willing to play the more traditional masculine role in the relationship in today’s day and age who is not a conservative,” said the TikToker with the username @Ms_Petch.
“A man who wants to pay on the first date; who wants to open your door; who has that want and desire to take care of you and provide — who is not a conservative.”
How about if you get some real men who are leaders. Get rid of the pussies. Some of these libs are going to be butt hurt, but even their women want a real man.
Did you ever notice that not one woman has come out to say that she was sexually harassed or even approached by Obama? A lot of this started with him. He even throws like a girl when he tossed out the first pitch at a baseball game. It was embarrassing.
There is some serious mental illness going on here to even consider doing this.
All of this time they said they stood up for numerous platform points that they never stood behind. It’s because they were Rino’s and now liberal supporters instead of patriots trying to save the country.
At least these traitors have come out and exposed both themselves and why they lost all of those years.
After Robert Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard joined the Trump-Vance unity campaign, Kamala’s PR people dug up 200 fake Republicans.
More than 200 career politicians who worked under RINOs George Bush, Mitt Romney, and John McCain endorsed the communist team of Harris-Walz. Soros-tied publication Mother Jones announced the news. You can read the names of the deep staters here.
This is what is wrong with the Republican Party – infiltrators like these people with no core. they are subversives Glad to see them go, but they will return.
There is no way these people are Republicans.
The joy-filled Republicans are still pretending Donald Trump incited an insurrection, an insurrection that never happened.
They also pushed the lie that Donald Trump is following the dangerous Project 2025. There is nothing wrong with Project 2025, and Trump has completely disavowed it—he even mocked it.
I knew McCain and Romney were losers and Rino’s, but it was surprising to see the Bush crowd supporting liberals. That shows they were part of the deep state uni-party and never were really on the side of patriotic Americans. Plus, the Bush’s turned out to be One World Order fucktards.
WASHINGTON — More than 200 Republicans who previously worked for either former President George W. Bush, the late Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., or Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president in an open letter Monday obtained exclusively by USA TODAY.
The letter from alums of the three Republican presidential nominees prior to former President Donald Trump comes on the heels of a Democratic National Convention last week in Chicago that showcased Republican detractors of the GOP nominee. At least five former aides to former President George H.W. Bush also signed the letter, which has 238 signatures in all.
A similar group of about 150 anti-Trump former staffers of Bush, McCain and Romney pledged support for President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
“We reunite today, joined by new George H.W. Bush alumni, to reinforce our 2020 statements and, for the first time, jointly declare that we’re voting for Vice President Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz this November,” the letter reads. “Of course, we have plenty of honest, ideological disagreements with Vice President Harris and Gov. Walz. That’s to be expected. The alternative, however, is simply untenable.”
Fight! Fight! Fight! In the past two months it has become very clear that if Americans are willing to stand up to the left and its Marxist bigoted agenda, Americans will win.
Since late June, five different university systems have shut down their Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion offices. Each is listed below, in chronological order:
And this list does not include the University of Florida, which in March shut down its own DEI office because the state legislature not only banned such offices, it cut the budgets of them.
Though it is true these states are all solidly conservative with legislatures largely controlled by Republicans, this fact on its face proves that voting can make a difference, with Florida the biggest proof. Unlike the other states, Florida had for decades been a swing state between the Democrats and Republicans. Voters however changed that in the past decade, so that today the state legisilature is solidly Republican. The result has been a definitive policy shift acting to eliminate these racist Marxist programs from state-financed universities.
There is no reason similar changes cannot be forced in other battleground states. Nor should we consider it impossible in the coastal states (California, Oregon, Washington, New York, Massachusetts, etc) where Democrats maintain full control. DEI concepts are inherently racist and divisive, and serve only to encourage anger, resentment, and hate across all ethnic groups. Ordinary voters recognize this routinely, when they make the effort to look.
Nor are things changing solely in the unversities because of the willingness of voters to force change. The boycott of Bud Light because of its endorsement of the queer agenda last year is having profound impact on corporate culture. In just the last few months a number of major companies have announced the elimination of their own DEI departments and programs, also listed below in chronological order:
Not much has been this blatant, discriminatory, and biased, nor caused as much corporate loss of money and customer goodwill.
It proves that unity, not diversity is our real strength.
I post this as I listen to Ford losing $5.5 billion on EV’s as they transition to hybrid because no one wants them. They’d rather have a ground shaking V-8 with a straight exhaust in their truck or a real Mustang, but no. Ford Loses $44,000 On Every EV Sells As It Switches To Hybrids
Now this:
We are often told that wind and solar, if not cheaper, are at least cost competitive with fossil fuels. Dead wrong! Wind or solar costs around five times more per megawatt hour compared to, for example, natural gas.
We are told that wind and solar will save us from a climate catastrophe. If there is a looming climate catastrophe, the only thing that will save us is nuclear power. Wind and solar are incredibly expensive methods of reducing CO2 emissions. The more wind and solar you build, the cost of removing CO2 increases disproportionately.
The U.S. has wasted $1.5 trillion on wind and solar and for that money only a little more than 10% of our electricity comes from wind and solar.
Fossil fuels are not dirty. Modern natural gas or coal plants are environmentally pristine. CO2 is not a pollutant, but an aerial plant food that is greening the Earth. CO2 makes plants grow faster with less water.
Wind or solar electricity is not worth what it costs to create it. It is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. That is a generally accepted economic principle.
If the government requires a utility to purchase some amount of electricity at some price, that is not a free market. That is central planning. Central planning has a role, but it rarely works as well as the voluntary exchange of goods and services. Central planning creates unexpected twists and turns and often results in low productivity.
More on the lies they’ve been telling us about Green energy and the Green New Deal nonsense
They’ve been America haters for a long time anyway. I’ve never liked their stuff and change the channel when they come on. That’s rare since the good stations don’t play their shitty music much anyway. I can see why the DNC would want them though.
The Dixie Chicks were roasted on social media over their mangled performance of the Star Spangled Banner at the Democratic National Convention, Thursday.
Natalie Maines and sisters Martie Maguire and Emily Strayer took the stage inside the United Center in Chicago and delivered a choppy a cappella version of the national anthem most fans agreed they could have done without. They began their performance in harmony as they sang similar keys, but just a few seconds later, everything fell apart. They hit different notes for the rest of the anthem, and the internet immediately erupted with criticism.
We can add Richard Medhurst to Tulsi Gabbard, Scott Ritter, Amb. Craig Murray, Julian Assange, and many others are harassed, arrested, and imprisoned by police state authorities in the US, UK, EU, and Canada for practicing the disappearing profession of journalism. When Richard Medhurst can be arrested in a London airport for “expressing an opinion or belief that is supportive of a proscribed organization,” we know freedom is dead and journalism no longer exists. All that Western journalists are permitted to do today is to support the official lies in the official narratives that are used to construct the false reality in which we live.
We no longer have the BBC, the New York Times, the London Times, ABC, NBC, CBS to hold government accountable. What we have are propaganda ministries that support official narratives. The job of the Western media is to lie to the people in behalf of the establishment that rules them.
As the growing intimidation of alternative media makes clear, the ability to express truth is rapidly disappearing in the Western world. Soon we will be locked into The Matrix, only there will be no superhuman opposition.
It has been years since we could believe one word that we hear from the New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, CNN, Fox News, ABC, CBS, NBC, the London Times, Telegraph, The Guardian, or the main European media sources.
The notion that the West is free is a joke. When there is no free expression there is only tyranny. And that is what the Western world is. A tyranny.
The reason the Western governments have no difficulty supporting the Nazi governments in Ukraine and Israel is that they are Nazis themselves.
Did you hear about the free abortions and sterilizations on offer at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago this week? Incredibly, the news is real. Abortion-inducing drugs (mifepristone and Plan B) will be doled out from the back of a Planned Parenthood RV, along with vasectomies, just a few blocks from a convention that will embrace a radical abortion-until-birth policy that would have been unthinkable, even for Democrats, just a decade ago.
Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance was savaged by the corporate press for repeatedly describing Democrats as “anti-family” in media appearances last week. Now, as if to prove Vance’s point, here they are with an abortion van at their convention and supporters marching through the streets dressed as abortion pills. As my colleague Jordan Boyd noted, Planned Parenthood’s euphemistically labeled “mobile health center” might not be an officially DNC-sanctioned part of the convention, but it fits right in with the party’s macabre platform that would federalize abortion law and allow it through all nine months of pregnancy.

People thought that the Disney version of Star Wars couldn’t possibly get any more woke, but somehow they managed to do it.
Now the series has been canceled after just one season. Who could have predicted that no one would watch the show?
Deadline reports:
‘The Acolyte’ Canceled: No Season 2 For Disney+’s ‘Star Wars’ Series
The story of The Acolyte will not continue, with Lucasfilm opting not to proceed with a second season of the Star Wars offshoot starring Amandla Stenberg, sources tell Deadline.
Word of the decision comes more than a month after the eight-episode first season of the series from creator, director, executive producer and showrunner Leslye Headland wrapped its run on Disney+.
The news is not entirely surprising. The Acolyte did OK with critics, with 78% on Rotten Tomatoes, but divided Star Wars fans, which was reflected in its overall viewership.
Driven by interest into the venerable franchise, The Acolyte got off to a strong start when it launched June 4 with two episodes, generating 4.8M views in its first day on the streamer to rank as the biggest series premiere on Disney+ this year. The tally rose to 11.1 million views globally after five days of streaming. Corroborating Disney’s data, the series made its debut on Nielsen’s Top 10 originals chart in its premiere week at No. 7 (488 million minutes viewed), climbing to No. 6 the following week.
But The Acolyte could not sustain the momentum, dropping out of the Top 10 in Week 3 and staying off before returning at No. 10 after the release of the finale (335M minutes, believed to be the lowest for a Star Wars series finale).
get woke, go broke, every damn time.
What is interesting is how Disney never learns
Oh well, I’ll vote with my dollars, elsewhere. Get woke and go broke.
Racism is discrimination based on skin, so they are racists
Here’s an important segment of the social engineering component of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), passed under the Obama presidency:
The ACA provides a strong emphasis on preventive medicine and primary care through insurance reform, increased reimbursement for primary care providers, funding to educate these providers, and incentives to attract providers into primary care. The Nurse Practitioners (NPs) are especially well prepared to educate providers on the use of evidence-based preventive care and to assist the U.S. healthcare system in its transformation toward this model.
In other words, under the rubric of preventative medicine, millions of people who might not have gone to see a doctor prior to ACA are being encouraged to go. To meet the cost of those millions of new patients, new institutions like urgent care centers are springing up. Physicians’ Assistants (P.A.s) and Nurse Practitioners (N.P.s) are being used to treat these people as well as more serious cases. The medical schools do not turn out enough M.D.s to treat the 30 million people (new “patients”) who are being channeled into the American health care system. As my primary care doctor (an M.D.) told me, there is increasing pressure on him to have a practice of only very sick people. He frankly told me that he does not want the stress of treating only the very sick all day, every day.
So, in the post-ACA morass, we have too many people going to see M.D.s who don’t need an M.D. We have too many very sick people that have to wait a very long time to get an appointment with an M.D. And…we have increasing numbers of P.A.s and N.P.s supervising the care of very sick people. With millions of dollars pouring into the health care system from the federal government, it becomes a boon to hospital income to have less qualified personnel who need to be paid less than M.D.s. It’s a morass depicting itself as “needed reform.” From the Hippocratic Oath to do the least harm, the health care world has shifted to the “principle” see the most people and diminishing the quality of health care. There is a trade-off between the numbers served, which increases, and the quality of care and professionalism, which decreases.
Good job there Karen driver.
Harley-Davidson is facing biker backlash over fears that the American motorcycle manufacturer born with the renegade image is now identifying as woke.
“@harleydavidson has been one of the most beloved brands in America but recently on CEO Jochen Zeitz’s watch, they’ve gone totally woke,” filmmaker Robby Starbuck shared with his more than 528,000 followers on X in late July.
The bike brand’s apparent decision to volunteer for the culture wars in America has been a high-octane topic at the 84th annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota this week, according to both attendees and numerous social media postings.
“It’s branding suicide,” Vinny Terranova, the owner of Pappy’s Vintage Cycles in Sturgis, South Dakota, told Fox News Digital on Tuesday.
“A lot of bikers are switching over to Indian,” he said. “They killed Harley. It breaks my heart.”
Get woke, go broke, every damn time, but why Harley, why of all companies?
They are eliminating a tremendous talent pool so that they can become woke like Bud Light, Target, Tractor Supply, John Deere, and the Ivy League.
Look how well that worked out for them.
I want my technology built by the best minds, not diversity.
Woke ruins everything it touches, every damn time.
Minouche Shafik resigned Wednesday as Columbia University’s president, ending an embattled 13-month term during which her New York City campus was the scene of a series of chaotic and sometimes violent protests by students, faculty and other activists.

Protests over the Israel-Hamas war began in October and continued through much of the winter at Columbia and many other schools. The protests intensified in April after Shafik testified before Congress.
The protests divided the campus, with many Jewish students saying they were fearful to pass by demonstrations. Shafik faced a backlash after calling on city police to break up an encampment, and again when students and others took over an academic building.
She has seen tenuous support from faculty and administrators, as well as calls from some alumni and donors to resign. She is the fifth Ivy League president to step down over the past year.
story (might be behind a paywall)
So all of them are Diversity hires that had to resign, all female, all unable to lead and deal with the anti-semitism because they were for it. Hey Ivy League, get people who are qualified and not biased.
Now, if Columbia can get rid of the Frankfurt School of Marxism, it might have a chance at being decent.
Yet they waste billions on “renewable energy” that hasn’t a snowball’s chance in hell of supplying us with what we need.
Among the great mythologies of recent years, one stands out above the rest, is that the world is in a “great energy transition.” Actually, the world IS in a dramatic energy transition. But it isn’t the one the Left wants it to be.
Despite hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars thrown at wind and solar power, we still get less than 10% of our energy from green sources. The needle really hasn’t moved at all over the past two decades. The more the government spends, the less we get per taxpayer dollar thrown at it. That’s the very definition of a falling stock.
The REAL energy transition is toward natural gas. A few weeks ago, the price of natural gas fell below $2 per MMBTU, the lowest price level for energy, after adjusting for inflation, in 20 years and probably ever in the history of mankind. Just a few years ago, the price in real dollars was four times higher.

It’s a shell game to move money into the pockets of the insiders. It will never work and economically it isn’t feasible. Natural gas makes us energy independent, but we can’t have that now can we (with liberals in charge)
By now, almost everyone knows that “the world is warming”, and has been told over and over by the mainstream media that it is due to man’s emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), principally but not limited to carbon dioxide (CO2). This claim is largely due to the efforts of the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
A history of this institution is very instructive, as its roots trace back to the Club of Rome (a MUST read is https://climatism.blog/2018/12/19/draconian-un-climate-agenda-exposed-global-warming-fears-are-a-tool-for-political-and-economic-change-it-has-nothing-to-do-with-the-actual-climate/ Jamie W. Spry).
I quote extensively from this reference below, in brackets […]:
[The Club of Rome was a group of mainly European scientists and academics, who used computer modelling to warn that the world would run out of finite resources if population growth were left unchecked. The Club of Rome’s 1972 environmental best-seller “The Limits To Growth”, examined five variables in the original model: world population, industrialization, pollution, food production and resource depletion. They noted that “In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that…the threat of global warming…would fit the bill…the real enemy, then, is humanity itself.”
Not surprisingly, their study predicted a dire future for mankind unless we ‘act now’: “We are unanimously convinced that rapid, radical redressment of the present unbalanced and dangerously deteriorating world situation is the primary task facing mankind…Concerted international measures and joint long-term planning will be necessary on a scale and scope without precedent…This supreme effort is…founded on a basic change of values and goals at individual, national, and world levels…”(Arvid’s bold italics)
Susan Rice: Harris is an ‘Integral Architect’ of Biden’s Agenda
No one is as much of an insider to Obama and the deep state as her. I can’t believe she’d say this as Biden’s agenda is such a sinking ship.
Anyway, here goes.
On MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” Tuesday, the host asked about Harris’ reported plans to highlight “unfinished pieces of Biden’s policies” as part of her campaign.
“How important is it for her to find a way to differentiate herself from aspects of the Biden agenda? Maybe move the ball, put an emphasis on other things? How does she do that and still be loyal to the fact that she worked with Joe Biden?” Mitchell asked.
“I think it’s very important to remember that this has been the Biden-Harris agenda. Kamala Harris has been an integral architect and executor of the policies of the Biden-Harris administration,” Rice said.
—
“So, there will be important, as there should be, aspects of continuity in many policy areas. But of course, the vice president will outline her vision and where she sees opportunities to advance their collective agenda, the Biden-Harris collective agenda, and take it further forward. I think we all look forward to hearing that.
More at the link above, but advancing his agenda would kill the nation. If I were Kamala, I’d run from his record as far as possible, but no, Susan Rice pins the tail on the donkey
“If you’re an advertiser and you don’t wanna advertise on Rumble or X, that’s totally fine. You have the option to do that. But the problem happens when you have a consortium, or a group like the World Federation of Advertisers, or the group that they created called GARM, which then assemble all these advertisers and agencies, which creates a huge amount of power for GARM to basically instruct these companies on whether or not and how they want to employ brand safety standards,” Pavlovski told Fox Business.
“They then can now discriminate against certain voices on other platforms,” he continued. “If they don’t like what some speech might happen on Rumble or X, they can say, we’re not going to touch that, which then causes advertising rates to go higher because now they’re only accessing a certain portion of the market and then drives higher prices for their shareholders and their brands. This harms the advertisers, the shareholders, it creates a higher fee for the agencies and also harms Rumble creators and Rumble viewers and the Rumble platform.”
Pavlovski went on to describe ad agencies as operating as a “harmful monopoly.”
The first email was from Diageo North America, a leading alcoholic beverage company that is part of the “GARM Steer Team,” Pavlovski noted. In an email to Rumble, Diageo wrote that “there is no scenario where we approve a platform that has Steven Crowder, Alex Jones or the like. The content on your platform is non-compliant pretty much across every category we try to avoid.”
Similar sentiments were expressed by Inspire Brands, whose chains include Dunkin’ Donuts, Baskin Robbins, Jimmy Johns and a number of additional high-profile brands. “To be honest [redacted], I would be opposed to showing up on the current version of the platform — the right-wing culture of the site is too polarizing from a brand standpoint today,” a representative for Inspire Brands wrote in an email to Rumble.
I think people are dumbasses for not making their own coffee, but to go down this path after all the other companies have pulled SJW crap is stupid
Three years ago today, the Taliban seized Kabul, causing the Afghan government to collapse, and Joe Biden responded by ordering a quick evacuation from Afghanistan, which was completed at the end of August.
As a reminder, Harris was the last person in the room when the decision was made and openly celebrated Biden’s “courage” afterward.
“This is a president who has an extraordinary amount of courage,” Harris boasted. “He is someone, who I have seen over and over again, make decisions based on what he truly believes … is the right thing to do.”
Jim Hoft reported last year that the Taliban previously released photos of the abandoned equipment in Afghanistan and the Regime tried to lie their way out of it.

Joe Biden threw Kamala Harris under the bus and said she is also responsible for the current dumpster fire economy.
“The issues that we’ve worked on together have made great progress economically,” Biden said.
There is no progress economically. Americans are suffering from crippling inflation thanks to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

I know I hate mine and it’s coming up, mostly the attention thing. No extrovert will understand this, but you should.
Anyway, here it is and boy is it right. Again, courtesy of Introvert Dear, link at the end
I’ve never really liked my birthday. In fact, it’s one of the days I dread the most. I hate all the extra attention and the pressure to make it a special day, usually with a party. It’s insufferable.
When I was a teenager, I used to have long, exhausting fights with my mother in the weeks leading up to my birthday. She always wanted me to celebrate with a huge party filled with family and friends. But to me, a huge birthday party is synonymous with torture, not celebration. Instead, I wanted something small, like going to the movies or the bowling alley with a few close friends.
More often than not, I used to win these fights and ended up doing what I wanted for my birthday. But all these arguments took a toll on my mental health and self-esteem. Whenever I refused to have a party or make a big deal out of my birthday, people called me a party pooper, a killjoy, and a downer. I didn’t have the words to defend myself (I was still a kid), so I internalized all those insults and convinced myself that there was something “wrong” with me. It took me years to realize and accept that there was nothing wrong with me — I am an introvert.
I am now a proud introvert who can defend the reasons behind my actions and behaviors. In case you’re curious, my relationship with my mother has improved, but I still hate my birthday. I believe a lot of the reasons stem from the fact that I’m an introvert.
Obviously, not all introverts hate their birthdays, but over the years I have noticed that a significant portion of the online introvert community feels aversion or indifference toward their birthdays. Here are a few reasons I believe some introverts (like myself) don’t like their birthdays.
This one’s a no-brainer. Most introverts don’t like being the center of attention, so having an entire day dedicated to them can be quite uncomfortable. It’s especially tough when they are put on display in front of a lot of people, anxiously waiting to see their reactions while opening gifts or making a wish and blowing out the candles to the tune of “Happy Birthday.”
In my case, I especially hate all the attention I receive for something as trivial as turning one year older. I feel like I haven’t earned it, and I don’t know what to do with it. Being the center of attention makes me anxious, uncomfortable, and insecure. I always try to avoid it and redirect that attention to something or someone else. But when it’s my birthday, that is almost impossible to do because it’s “my day.”
Birthdays and parties practically go hand in hand. When your birthday is coming up, everyone expects you to throw a big party to celebrate. Introverts tend to dislike parties because we don’t like big crowds, loud noises, and shallow socializing. This aversion to parties doesn’t change when the party is ours. If anything, it makes it worse.
When we throw a party, we might end up feeling anxious and worrying if everyone is having fun. It’s our party, so we feel the pressure and responsibility to be a good host and ensure everyone is enjoying themselves. But in the process, we sometimes forget to have a good time ourselves.
And don’t even get me started on surprise parties. It’s undoubtedly a nice gesture for someone to throw you a surprise party because it shows they care enough to go through all the trouble of organizing it. But a surprise party is practically a living nightmare for an introvert. If there’s anything worse than having a party, it’s not having knowledge or control over your own party.
This is one of the things that bother me the most about my birthday. Sometimes, I just want to do something small to celebrate, like going to the movies or taking a long walk around the city. But the pressure from others to make it a “special” day can be too much. I get it, I was born on that day, but why does it have to be the most special day of my year? Why do I have to have the time of my life specifically on that day? That’s just setting myself up for failure because the expectations are always way too high. (And we introverts don’t like pressure anyway!)
Plus, when your birthday is coming up, it seems like everyone has their own opinion about how you should celebrate it. Instead of asking you what you want to do, some people tell you exactly what you should do. Whether it’s a party or going dancing at a club, your birthday might end up being about what other people want to do instead of what you want.
And God forbid you suggest you don’t want to do anything for your birthday — people might look at you as if you’re crazy. They will try to convince you that you’re wrong and that you will regret it for the rest of your life if you don’t do something special on that day.
This one might come off as ungrateful because it’s undoubtedly nice to have people who care enough to wish you a happy birthday. But to an introvert, all that attention can be overwhelming.
Phone calls, in general, make some introverts uncomfortable. When the sole purpose of a call is to wish us a happy birthday, it’s even worse because all the attention is on us. After the “Happy Birthday”s and “Thank you”s, the inevitable small talk follows, making us even more uncomfortable. It doesn’t help that the people who usually call are relatives or friends you only talk to two or three times a year.
The same goes for the Facebook messages and texts you receive throughout the day. After the pleasantries and birthday greetings, you have to make small talk (again, in a different form) with all the people who wished you a happy birthday. This can be a bit too much, which is why I think some introverts hide their birthdays from their social media pages.

Few situations are worse for an introvert than being in front of a cake while friends and family sing what feels like a three-hour rendition of “Happy Birthday.” I never know what to do or where to look when that melody starts, and suddenly I have a cake in front of me and dozens of eyes on me.
There is no appropriate reaction to that situation. Do I smile the whole time? No, that would look fake, and my cheeks would probably start to hurt after the third “Happy birthday to you…” Do I put on a poker face? No, that would probably come off as bratty and ungrateful. Do I sing with them? No, that would look awkward. Do I run away and hide in the bathroom? No, that would probably lead to a lot of questions. Whoever came up with this particular birthday tradition obviously hated introverts and wanted to see them suffer.
I love celebrating my friends and family’s birthdays. I enjoy seeing them happy and buying them presents to celebrate another year of their lives. But when the spotlight is on me and it’s my birthday, I hate it. I hate the pressure, the attention, and the Happy Birthday song.
However, that doesn’t mean I haven’t enjoyed my birthdays before. The birthdays I have enjoyed the most are the ones when I did what I wanted to do, like going to the movies or the bowling alley with my best friends, not when I succumbed to the pressure from others and ended up doing what they wanted me to do.
So if you have an introvert in your life and you want to make their birthday special, just ask them what they want to do and respect it. Don’t assume everyone wants to celebrate with a huge party and be the center of attention.
And if you’re an introvert who hates their birthday like I do, there are ways to enjoy this “special day.” Set realistic expectations, put your foot down, and do what you want to do, whether that’s having dinner with your family, going dancing with your friends, or staying home with a good book and a Netflix marathon. I can’t promise you’ll start loving your birthday, but at least you’ll enjoy it more. And the good thing about birthdays is they only happen once a year.
One of America’s richest cities sinks in massive hotel debt – as tourists stop choosing it for their vacations.
San Francisco’s glitzy hotels have been plunged into massive debt following a dramatic drop off in tourism to the Golden Gate City.
The Californian city’s two biggest hotels, the Hilton Parc 55 and Hilton San Francisco Union Square, have lost a combined $1billion in value, according to the Kroll Bond Rating Agency.
Their worth is now $553.8 million.
Meanwhile, the delinquency rate among commercial mortgage-backed security loans for the sector jumped to 41.6 percent in June from 5.7 percent the same time last year, according to data from real estate analytics firm Trepp.

Both Imane Khelif (25) of Algeria and Lin Yu-Ting (28) of Taiwan competed in the 2021* Tokyo Olympic Games, but this year’s appearance was after the International Boxing Association (IBA) had barred them from competing against women on the grounds that tests had confirmed that both athletes are not female.
The IBA reports, based upon two tests in Istanbul 2022 and in New Delhi in 2023, that not only did both have very high testosterone levels, but they have XY chromosomes, making them genetically male and functionally more akin to men than women. Given that neither athlete successfully appealed the decision (Khelif began the appeal process but withdrew it), the decision was legally binding.
Therefore, it’s safe to assume, as famed biologist and atheist Richard Dawkins does, that “genetically male boxers such as Imane Khalif (XY undisputed) should not fight women in the Olympics.” Dawkins says that his Facebook account was deleted for having made this entirely reasonable observation publicly.
The IOC disregarded the IBA’s reports, claiming that it never received them — a claim that appears to be false, given that reports show the IBA having sent the results in June of 2023.
That’s the crux of the debate, and everything else is smoke. If the boxers have XY chromosomes, they are males. And if they are males, then they should not be competing against females. Furthermore, if the IOC looked at the IBC’s results, they would have confirmed or denied that the two boxers are males with XY chromosomes. If they didn’t look at the files, their decision has no basis in science at all, and it was a purely political decision.
I am related to Scandanavians by marriage. Note that I don’t refer to them as relatives. They be-clown themselves at every instance trying to take down the USA or somehow use some irrelevant fact that makes their country seem superior. They are ‘tards who want our country to act like theirs. Trashing America is the EU’s favorite sport it seems (while they wear Carhartt, drink Coke, buy American and vacation at Disney.
Now this.
“They know that a President Trump victory means America will no longer be ripped off because he will smartly utilize tariffs and renegotiated trade deals that put America First.”
He continued, “Let us be very clear: the European Union is an enemy of free speech and has no authority of any kind to dictate how we campaign.”
The Washington Examiner reported the reaction came after a bureaucrat named Thierry Breton wrote a letter to Musk warning, or threatening him.
Breton wants only what he considers approved messaging to be allowed on X.
The Examiner explained, “Breton reminded Musk he has an obligation to comply with standards set by the Digital Services Act, which addresses the regulation of illegal content and disinformation across social media and other online platforms.”
Breton said if X fails to regulate what he calls disinformation, which could be nothing more than an opinion he doesn’t hold, it could “generate detrimental effects on civic discourse and public security.”
“This is important against the background of recent examples of public unrest brought about by the amplification of content that promotes hatred, disorder, incitement to violence, or certain instances of disinformation,” he said.
The United Kingdom has been rocked by violence in recent days because of the lethal stabbings of three girls by a 17-year-old that sparked widespread immigration protests.
The police in the U.K. have become so concerned about online statements with which they disagree they’ve threatened to try to arrest and charge even people from other nations.
I’ve got news for you, we don’t have to do anything you say and you are pretty lucky to have us bail out your asses from the trouble you have stirred up over the last century.
I grow tired of listening to this crap. They act like children who have a holier-than-thou attitude. I pretty much avoid the outlaws now.
The problem is that America is not going to be like you want us to be, socialist. So to those I have to be related to, for now, FOAD and BIOYA.
She ruined multiple franchises and changed the story. While she completely misunderstood that the audience was a bunch of geeks who enjoyed the fantasy that the series gave us. It was not just the feminism and gay crap, but rather the reality that men win the wars and saved the universe.
If the woke Olympics gave us nothing, it showed the reality that girls can’t beat men in battle.
So retire and quit ruining our lives with the crap movies that you touch (every one of them). Your equation for movies will never give you a win.
She goes down in history with the Bud Light girl who ruined that franchise.
Woke ruins everything it touches and it’s too bad that Star Wars was a victim
Lucasfilm chiefstress Kathleen “Franchise Killer” Kennedy is ready to retire but wants to go out on a win rather than slink away after destroying forever two franchises that were once seen as bulletproof: Star Wars and Indiana Jones.
At this point, one can only wonder what blackmail she might hold over Disney Grooming Syndicate chief Bob Iger. Her Lucasfilm reign has been catastrophic, to say the least. Under her woke and hammy hands, Star Wars has alienated a fan base that was once so fervent they forgave the Lucas prequels.
According to the Chief Medical Examiner, the slow death of Star Wars was caused by a dreadful trilogy of sequels and a half-dozen wretched Disney+ streaming series—the latest being The Acolyte, which was laughed (lesbian witches birthed the Jedi or something) off the planet. All of this garbage was poisoned by spell-breaking identity politics, left-wing lectures, and an obvious hatred and contempt for the fan base that made Star Wars a cultural phenomenon.
Star Wars is so broken, what was supposed to be an ongoing film franchise that would deliver two movies a year has now gone five years without a new release. The only news around Star Wars movies today is all the projects that get canceled.
Kennedy did the same with Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Instead of delivering for the fans, she produced a box office catastrophe by teaming Indy up with a sexless girlboss.
Oh, and let’s not forget Willow, which she turned into a streaming gay-fest so hated by the fans Disney removed it from its streaming service.
Were Kennedy to exit Lucasfilm today, it would be covered in the disgrace she deserves. But thanks to affirmative action she remains in a job a white guy would’ve lost five years ago, and based on this report she intends to stay until she can walk out, head held high.
When will these SJW companies learn? You’ve got a great thing going. You have loyal fans and a cult following and then this:
Harley-Davidson, America’s most iconic motorcycle brand, is reportedly being ‘Bud-Light’d’ at the 84th annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota, following filmmaker Robby Starbuck’s anti-woke campaign against the company last month.

“It’s another day at Sturgis Rally and another day of the @harleydavidson tent being a ghost town with very few people walking inside. In a typical year their tent is PACKED,” Starbuck wrote on X on Thursday.
Woke ruins everything it touches and almost everybody hates it. What is driving these companies to commit suicide?
get woke, go broke every damn time
None other than Dawn Staley lives near me. She already showed her racist colors with the Duke Volleyball (Jesse Smollet type) Hoax. Now, she was part of the cabal that picked the girl’s basketball team.

The players were mostly black, mostly gay, mostly woke, and completely what no one wanted to see. Now, they are getting the Bud Light treatment.
The USA women’s basketball selection committee released an official statement in June, several days after the media reported that they had left the most dynamic and popular female athlete in the world today, Caitlin Clark, off of their Olympic roster.
The league broke the news after Caitlin Clark drained seven 3-point shots, scored 30 points, led in assists, and filled a 20,000-seat arena in Washington, DC, the night before the news broke. Clark put on a clinic. It didn’t matter.
Clark broke all of the attendance records in the first half of the season – It didn’t matter.
Clark led the league in 3-point shots when the picked the Olympic team – It didn’t matter.
Clark was bringing in MILLIONS of new fans to the league for the first time ever – It didn’t matter.
Clark is the most exciting player in basketball today – It didn’t matter.
This was not enough for these angry, jealous women to put Clark on the Olympic team where she belonged.
The world was waiting for Caitlin Clark to play in the Paris Olympics, the WNBA brass gave the US and the world the middle finger.
The USA team is drawing the lowest attendance of all the teams.
Well Dawn, BIOYA
Get woke, go broke.
Social media is just another form of addiction. The Chinese master this (think of all the Fentanyl they ship to the USA through Mexico). Get rid of it.
TikTok is already banned at the federal level, but the latest ban in the U.S. House of Representatives includes a handful of other ByteDance apps you or someone in your life might be using:
If you think the ByteDance paranoia is overblown, here’s the laundry list of data you give up every time you scroll TikTok. It’s safe to assume other ByteDance-developed apps do the same.
It’s a long list, so slow down while you read it. Remember, all this is being sent to China:
TikTok also embeds data into its images and ads to track the time and date you view a page, complete with a description. The amount of data TikTok collects is so extensive that it can come dangerously close to cloning your entire phone.
Where TikTok stores its data has also been a major red flag for Congress. Information collected in the U.S. is connected straight to servers in China, though the company says it’s changed its systems to store American data in the U.S. Yeah, right. That won’t stop China from getting it — who are they kidding?

There could be no single example underscoring what is wrong with the international woke movement than what occurred during the opening ceremonies of the Olympics in Paris, France, on July 26. What happened there was wokeism “run amuck.” It totally ignored two simple rules that should govern human behavior in free societies to nurture fairness and civility.

Let us examine what occurred at the opening ceremonies.

Many observers were shocked to see the famous painting by Leonardo Da Vinci of the Last Supper of Jesus with his 12 apostles grossly mocked, depicted in a scene involving sexualized drag queens. Some advertisers were so repulsed by it – such as Mississippi’s largest telecommunications company C-Spire – that their advertisements were immediately pulled.

While the Olympic Committee issued an apology the next day about the depiction and removed their video of the event from the internet, its statement was somewhat shocking in itself. It claimed the depiction was not intended to “be subversive or shock people or mock people.” As much time as the committee had to prepare for the opening ceremonies and with Catholicism being the world’s largest religion, it is absurd to believe committee members gave no thought as to whether any offense would be taken by the depiction.
One can only imagine the violent fallout that would have resulted had Olympic organizers decided instead to portray the world’s second largest religion – Islam – in such a light by having Prophet Muhammad depicted by a drag queen. Obviously, more thought was given as to why that should not be done, remembering the 12 staff members of the French magazine Charlie Hebdo who were killed in 2015 by Muslims upset about Muhammad’s depiction on its cover.

Let’s not forget about biological men beating the crap out of girls in boxing and actual pieces of shit floating in the Seine during the triathlon.
I asked a Facebook group of 58,000 women to tell me their biggest dating app red flags.
What is one thing on a man’s dating profile that will instantly make you swipe left or un-match?
I got hundreds of responses, but they all boiled down to the same seven answers.
And — perhaps surprisingly — none of them had anything to do with looks, height or holding a fish.
So let’s get to it.
7. Kids In Photos
This doesn’t necessarily mean they don’t want to date a man who has children. They just feel it’s irresponsible to put your child’s face on a dating app.
“I understand loving your children and making it very clear that they are a part of your life,” one woman wrote. “But also, it’s an app where hundreds of people can just access your stuff and keep on keeping on. Like I’ve seen what people do to grown women’s posts on the Internet. I would never put a picture of my child on Tinder or any other app.”
6. Photos With Women
Other than maybe your mom.
One time, a guy told me he includes photos of himself with hot girls on his dating profile because it sends a subliminal message that he’s a catch “since he can get hot women.”
And if that’s not the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard, it’s in the top 10.
Just like your wife or girlfriend doesn’t want to look at pictures of you with your ex, potential matches don’t want to feel like it’s a competition before they’ve even gone on a first date.
5. Can’t Hold A Conversation
I think one of the reasons dating apps could not keep my interest is because many of the men simply could not hold a stimulating conversation.
Just an endless stream of, Hey, wyd? Sup? How was your day? over and over again until we both lose interest and quit talking to each other.
I’d say about 99 percent of dating app matches never make it out of the chat.
4. “Not Into Drama”
This was a new one for me, but A LOT of women said it. So clearly, it’s a common line on men’s dating profiles.
“If he has ‘not into drama’ in his bio, it means he IS the drama,” one woman wrote.
Apparently a lot of men also don’t like women who “take themselves seriously.”
3. They Want To Talk On Snapchat
“What’s your snap?”
Three words that will make any woman’s eyes roll to the back of her head — and not in a fun way.
If a grown man only wants to communicate on Snapchat, he is in a relationship or married. Every single time. You might as well write “I’m a cheater” on your forehead and call it a day.
2. Shirtless Photos
This one was my answer, and I’m glad to see I’m not alone. Because this got the second-most mentions out of all the red flags.
A fundamental difference between men and women: If a very hot woman posts a half naked selfie on a dating app, every single man is swiping right. If a very hot man posts a shirtless mirror selfie on a dating app, women are repulsed.
The shirtless mirror selfie (or maybe worse, the pulling-up-my-shirt-to-show-my-abs selfie) is the dead giveaway of douchery. I don’t care if the guy is built like a renaissance statue — I want nothing to do with the level of narcissism he brings to the table.
And — drum roll — the No. 1 answer from the Facebook group. The BIGGEST red flag…
1. Getting Sexual Too Quickly
The ladies have spoken.
If a man immediately starts talking about sex or — God forbid — sends an unsolicited dick pic, it’s game over.
“Not only is it annoying if a guy goes immediately to sex, but it also tells me he’s talking like that to any woman who will entertain it,” one woman wrote.
Just so the men know: If a woman has ever played along with your sexting, then she really likes you. Because that does nothing for us. Dudes get so worked up and horny when they’re sexting. Meanwhile, she’s in the kitchen microwaving noodles in her baggy flannel jammies.
on the other hand, too many piercings, lots of tattoos, unnatural hair dye, a lot of cats, overly emotional outbursts, and being a feminist are red flags the other way. If they generalize that “all men are”, your clue is that all men should be out of there.
In the coming days and weeks, you will hear a lot about Tim Walz. You’ll hear about his leadership, you’ll hear about his time in office, and you’ll hear about his military service.
But here’s the truth you won’t hear from the mainstream media: Tim Walz abandoned his men before a combat deployment and he abandoned his city when it was literally on fire.
That’s the kind of leader Tim Walz truly is.
You’re already no doubt hearing about how Walz spent 24 years in the Army National Guard and retired as a command sergeant major. He is fond of referring to himself as the highest-ranking enlisted soldier to serve in Congress.
Here’s the truth: He indeed spent 24 years as an enlisted soldier in the Minnesota National Guard. As far as I can tell, he deployed once to Italy and once to Norway. But when it was finally his turn to deploy in the actual Global War on Terror, Walz instead chose his own aspirations over leadership. In a letter posted to Facebook in 2018, veterans from his unit said Walz retired from the National Guard after learning his battalion would be deployed to Iraq—though he assured his troops he would join them.
Walz would have been the Battalion Command Sergeant Major, the highest-ranking non-commissioned officer and arguably the most important leader in his unit. And in the moment they needed him most, when they were about to deploy to Iraq, Walz chose to abandon his men to run for Congress. According to sources within the unit, three of his soldiers died on that deployment.
This isn’t a leader. This is a man who uses others to further his own ambitions, then discards them when they become inconvenient. He abandoned his men and left the military before completing the school necessary to become a Command Sergeant Major—though this hasn’t stopped him from using the title on the Minnesota government site in his bio.
To me as a combat veteran, this kind of abdication of leadership is unforgivable. It’s the true measure of the man, and all I need to know about him.
Not only is he a traitor and a coward, he’s not fit to be a leader. Ironically, one has to question Kamala’s choice of VP and her leadership capabilities also.
(STUDY) Excessive Internet usage impacts key parts of the teenage brain
A 2023 Statista survey found that U.S. teenagers spent an average of 4.8 hours on social media platforms every day, with girls spending an average of 5.3 hours compared to 4.4 hours for boys.
“Being as excessive and addictive screen use is routinely listed as one of parents’ biggest concerns for children, I think it’s overdue that we start educating children as early as possible about the dangers of unhealthy and mindless screen use,” Anthony Anzalone, a clinical psychologist at Stony Brook Medicine, told The Epoch Times.
A systematic review from the University College London, published in June in PLOS Mental Health, looked at 12 studies involving 237 youths aged 10 to 19 who had a formal diagnosis of internet addiction between 2013 and 2023. All the studies were conducted in Asian countries.
Researchers defined internet addiction as an inability to resist the urge to use the internet, which negatively affects mental well-being, as well as aspects of social, educational, and work life.

Mom’s terrified of the most anti-parent candidate
Moms across the country say Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is the most anti-parent running mate Vice President Kamala Harris could have chosen.
“The worst part is that Walz claims to care about kids, but his policies have done nothing but hurt kids,” Rochester, Minnesota, mother of three Jeannine Buntrock told The Daily Signal. “Walz is a loyal soldier for the progressive movement, and will advance that cause, no matter the cost to Minnesotan families and children.”
Patently Anti-Religious’: Tim Walz’s History of Restricting Faith-Based Institutions
Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz has faced multiple lawsuits accusing him of infringing on religious liberty during his six years as Minnesota governor.
Walz encountered legal challenges for COVID-19 lockdown policies that religious organizations argued were discriminatory, placing stricter requirements on churches than businesses. He also encountered pushback after signing a law that stripped faith-based schools of funding for a program that offers free college credits to high school students.
Walz loves socialism. He allowed Minnesota to burn during the George Floyd riots. He made people snitch on their neighbors during COVID.
Tim Walz is a perfect choice for Kamala Harris.

Kamala Picking Walz: “This is doubling down on leftism and doubling down on anti-Israelism”
Tim Walz is about as far left as you’re going to get. That tells us that that is how Kamala Harris will govern. If she gets elected president, there’s no turning back. It will be a hard left administration, even more so than Biden.
So they have doubled down on socialism. They have doubled down on leftism. They have doubled down on all of those big government priorities. So that’s the number one takeaway.
Trump Campaign on Harris Choice: ‘Tim Walz is a Dangerously Liberal Extremist’
“By picking Tim Walz as her running mate, Kamala Harris not only bent the knee to the radical left, she doubled down on her dangerously liberal, weak, and failed agenda. Walz would be a rubberstamp for Kamala to wage war on American energy, continue aiding and abetting an invasion on our border, and embolden our adversaries as the world is brought to the brink of World War III. Americans will reject the Harris-Walz ticket and choose to make American Great Again by electing President Trump!” said Brian Hughes, Trump Campaign Senior Advisor.
Van Jones: Harris Appeases ‘Anti-Jewish’ Democrats by Picking Walz
Kamala Harris chose Tim Walz because Josh Shapiro is Jewish
And worst of all (maybe) a shirker in the military:
Tim Walz has embellished and selectively omitted facts and circumstances of his military career for years.
We, retired Command Sergeants Major of the Minnesota National Guard, feel it is our duty and responsibility to bring forth the truth as we know it concerning his service record. So, we have put together a timeline of his service post 9/11. To the best of our knowledge, this information is completely true, having been verified by all those who served in positions with first hand knowledge of the facts and circumstances of his service and departure from the Minnesota National Guard. Many of the dates and time frames are from his official discharge document and the reduction order reducing him to Master Sergeant.
MORE – but see how he let his fellow soldiers down by never completing a rank, traitor.
Fellow veteran speaks out on Walz’s misleading statements about military record
“As soon as the shots were fired in Iraq, he turned and ran the other way and hung his hat up and quit,” said Tom Behrends, a retired command sergeant major who replaced Gov. Tim Walz on a deployment to Iraq.
On a 150-year-old farm in Brewster, Tom Behrends hopes his tell-it-like-it-is style will finally get the attention he believes it deserves in Minnesota’s race for governor.
“The public needs to know how pathetic his leadership was as a National Guardsman,” Behrends said about Gov. Tim Walz.
“He abandoned us. What the hell kind of leader does that? As soon as the shots were fired in Iraq, he turned and ran the other way and hung his hat up and quit,” Behrends said.
Before I post the story, I know a lot of people who live there. The school teachers tell me instead of stop, drop and roll, how to get away from the rapists. They told me the immigrants moved in and ruined everything. They suck the money out of the social system and made Sweden the rape capital of the world.

What do you think when you hear about my home country of Sweden? 40 years ago, most people would have thought about it as one of the most peaceful countries on earth. And that was true.
But things have changed drastically. Decades of Socialist policies have destroyed Sweden.

34% of women and 18% of men say that they either feel ”unsafe” or ”very unsafe” being outside in their own neighborhood in the evening.
Among women and girls aged 16 – 19 years old, a whopping 44% say that they don’t feel safe being outside in the evening.
Turns out that since 2015, there has been a massive increase where people have self-reported being victims of a crime.
A whopping 4.7% of people report having been the victim of a sexual crime, up from 2% back in 2014. That is more than 100% increase!
The last 9 years there has been a whopping 80.928 reported rapes in Sweden. We now have one of the highest number of rapes in the entire world.
I have been warning about this development for years, but I was ridiculed by the mainstream media and ”experts”.
The weird thing is, that many people still continue to vote for more Socialism despite these horrible statistics.
I can even remember self-proclaimed feminist and Swedish singer Zara Larsson attacking me on social media many years ago while ignoring the rape crisis in Sweden. You can’t make it up.
You can read my in-depth article on the truth about the Swedish rape crisis from a few years ago here.
(ZEROHEDGE) – Undercover footage reported by the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project from Muckracker.com reveals that 14% of illegal immigrants in a single apartment complex in Georgia admitted to being registered to vote. The video, taken by journalist Carlos Arellano, has over 21 million views as of this writing.
Under the Biden-Harris administration, at least 99 illegal aliens on America’s terrorist watchlist have been released into the United States, according to a congressional report.
“As if the record-breaking number of border encounters of illegal aliens on the terrorist watchlist is not concerning enough, the Biden-Harris administration has released some of the aliens into the interior of the United States,” says the new report from the House Judiciary Committee and its Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement.
From the start of fiscal year 2021 through the end of fiscal 2023, the Border Patrol says, it encountered 282 illegal aliens on the terrorist watchlist between ports of entry at the southern border. Since the start of fiscal 2024 on Oct. 1, the Border Patrol has encountered an additional 93 foreign nationals on the terrorist watchlist along the border.
So think about it. Who is pushing us to war? Here is a hint- Its not Israel who has no choice but to try to cut off ther heads of the multiple snakes that continue to threaten the lives of every Israeli (by the way, many of the terror victims have been Christians and Muslims- including those 12 innocent soccer players.)
It is the Biden/Harris Progressive administration who have been “distancing” themselves (withholding critically needed munitions, not acting strongly in the UN and being mealy mouthed about how far Israel can defend her people) from Israel just as Obama did.
In case you missed it, This is very reminiscent of how Biden baited Russia into the humanitarian calamity in Ukraine. He encouraged the tallk about allowing Ukraine to into NATO while at the same time specifically stating that a “minor incursion” by Russia would not be a problem.
Think about it. The Bidens got millions of dollars out of Ukraine before the war and now the arms factories in the US and Europe can not keep up with the demand for shells, bullets and equipment. This is not to mention the more than $7 Billion worth of equipment squandered in our desertion of Afghanistan. The military industrial complex (and its investors in government) is fat and happy while the borders of our country are undefended, taxes are going up and there are questions about whether we even have enough military equipment to help defend against a Chinese move against Taiwan.
We had no wars under Trump Administration
