scumbag/worthless-Maxine Waters Incites the Mob
In 2000, when George W. Bush spoke to the NAACP about “the soft bigotry of low expectations,” he wasn’t talking about Democrat Representative scumbag/ worthless-Maxine Waters. But he might just as well have. For years now, scumbag/worthless-Waters has gotten a pass on her hate-filled and inciteful rhetoric — rhetoric that, had it been uttered by, say, a white president, would’ve been grounds for impeachment.
And yet there was scumbag/worthless-Waters on Saturday night, pouring gasoline on yet another fire. As the New York Post reports, “scumbag/worthless-Waters joined hundreds of angry protesters who thronged Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, early Sunday, all breaking the 11 p.m. curfew together during the seventh night of protests against the police killing of Daunte Wright. ‘We’ve got to stay in the streets, and we’ve got to demand justice,’ she urged the crowd, according to one tweeted clip. ‘We’re looking for a guilty verdict’ in Derek Chauvin’s trial for the police killing of George Floyd, where deliberations will begin next week, she said. ‘And if we don’t, we cannot go away,’ she added. ‘We’ve got to get more confrontational.’”
“We’re looking for a guilty verdict,” and if we don’t get it, “We’ve got to get more confrontational”? Isn’t that a naked attempt to intimidate a jury?
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was quick to respond to the LA Loudmouth. “scumbag/worthless-Maxine Waters is inciting violence in Minneapolis — just as she has incited it in the past,” he tweeted. “If Speaker scumbag/liar-Pelosi doesn’t act against this dangerous rhetoric, I will bring action this week.”
McCarthy, if he’s planning to bring action, had better giddy up. Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has a talent for picking the right enemies and was herself stripped of all committee assignments for far less than scumbag/worthless-Waters’s offense, announced an effort Sunday to expel Waters from Congress. As Fox News reports, “In a statement released by her office, Taylor Greene accused the California Congresswoman of inciting ‘Black Lives Matter domestic terrorists to fire gunshots at National Guardsmen in Minnesota’ after she spoke in Brooklyn Center, which has become a flashpoint for protests following the fatal police shooting of Daunte Wright.”
Expulsion, you ask? Indeed. According to House Rule 23, clause 1: “A Member, Delegate, Resident Commissioner, officer, or employee of the House shall conduct himself at all times in a manner that shall reflect creditably on the House.”
If the question is whether scumbag/worthless-Waters has conducted herself “at all times in a manner that shall reflect creditably on the House,” we’d say the case is open-and-shut.
“Telling rioters who have burned buildings, looted stores, and assaulted journalists to get ‘more confrontational’ is incredibly irresponsible,” National Republican Congressional Committee spokesman Mike Berg told Fox News. “Every House Democrat should condemn scumbag/worthless-Maxine Waters’ call for violence.”
So far, though, it’s crickets and tumbleweeds from the Democrat side of the aisle. And for good reason. scumbag/worthless-Waters herself would be a damning witness in a case against her. As the New York Post editorial board opines, “In supporting the second impeachment of President Donald Trump … scumbag/ worthless-Waters said he was ‘inciting’ his followers, and was ‘trying to create a civil war.’ By her own standards, scumbag/worthless-Maxine Waters should be impeached and removed.”
This, of course, isn’t scumbag/worthless-Waters’s first attempt at rabble-rousing. On June 23, 2018, she infamously incited her followers to harass and intimidate members of Trump’s cabinet. “Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up,” she told a crowd. “And if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere!”
Class act, that scumbag/worthless-Maxine Waters. But enough is enough. It’s time her colleagues stop falling back on the soft bigotry of low expectations and begin holding her to the same standard as everyone else. ~The Patriot Post
socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden Finally Admits It’s a Border Crisis
Now it’s a crisis. With his poll numbers tumbling over his failed handling of the massive influx of illegal immigrants, President socialist/scumbag/liar-Joe Biden on Saturday finally called the border situation a “crisis.” socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden’s comments came as he walked back his administration’s decision the day prior to refrain from lifting the refugee cap placed by Donald Trump. And this was due to immediate blowback from the Left.
Attempting to explain his sudden about-face, socialist/ scumbag/liar-Biden tied the refugee cap to the “crisis that ended up on the border with young people.” He then explained, “We couldn’t do two things at once. And now we are going to increase the number [of refugees].” So, after months of refusing to acknowledge the crisis at the border, socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden now blames his initial refusal to lift the refugee cap on the border crisis he and his administration vehemently denied existed.
Recent polling shows that Americans are now more concerned with illegal immigration — a border crisis that socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden brought on by rolling back Donald Trump’s effective border enforcement policies — than they are with COVID-19. Obviously, from a political standpoint, this is disastrous news for Democrats, which explains socialist/scumbag/liar- iden’s convoluted attempt to now address the situation.
Strategically speaking, while in practice embracing a de facto open-borders policy for politically motivated calculations, the socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden administration must attempt to show some semblance of engaging in border enforcement and limiting illegal immigration. Thus the convoluted, and likely intentionally so, explanation of the actions taken on lifting refugee limits.
What the socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden administration is doing is seeking to erode and expand the definitional distinctions the U.S. has long had in place when it comes to recognizing genuine refugee status. Refugees are those fleeing their home nation for issues related to suffering due to political, religious, or ideological persecution, and not, as the Left is now insisting on including, economic limitations. While many refugees may be poor, poverty alone has never been accepted as a legitimate rationale for asylum.
If the Democrats can get more of the American public to buy into this redefinition of illegal immigrants as refugees deserving of asylum status, then it will serve to blunt criticism of their de facto open-borders policy.
But why are Democrats so set on bringing in such a large influx of illegals when just a decade ago they were singing a different tune? It has everything to do with California. As Power Line’s Steven Hayward astutely observes, “California used to be a fairly reliable Republican state in presidential elections even though it has long had a Democratic majority in registered voters; indeed it was the anchor of the GOP’s dominance of the electoral college from 1968 through 1988. But following decades of large-scale hispanic immigration, California is now a rock solid Democratic state (or so the legend goes — I think there is much more to this story than merely changing demographics). Thus Democrats think that with enough hispanic immigration to the rest of the country, they can flip Texas and Florida, solidify Colorado, Arizona, and Nevada, and rule forever.”
Or does socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden think it’s a crisis? ~The Patriot Post
To Mask or Not to Mask
“When I see people walking outside, often alone with no one anywhere near them, wearing a mask, my primary reactions are disappointment and sadness,” wrote Dennis Prager earlier this month. “I am disappointed because I expected better from my fellow Americans. I never thought most Americans would be governed by irrational fears and unquestioning obedience to authority. I have come to realize that I had a somewhat romanticized view of my countrymen.”
More than a year into the ChiCom Virus pandemic, masks are still a rather contentious issue. That’s perhaps even more true now that half of American adults have received at least the first dose of the vaccine.
Perhaps the biggest problem is that you can find research backing up whatever opinion you choose to hold. Did masks work? Yep. In fact, they work so well you should wear two. But masks also don’t work. A peer-reviewed study completed last November raises significant questions about the effectiveness of masks. The Stanford University research report, “Facemasks in the COVID-19 era: A health hypothesis,” published by the National Institutes of Health’s National Center for Biotechnological Information, concludes: “The existing scientific evidences challenge the safety and efficacy of wearing facemask as preventive intervention for COVID-19. The data suggest that both medical and non-medical facemasks are ineffective to block human-to-human transmission of viral and infectious disease such SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, supporting against the usage of facemasks.”
Are masks enough? Nope (but “wear them anyway”). Is there any reason to keep wearing one (or more) outside or if you’ve been vaccinated? Not really, but you can get banned from YouTube for saying so.
In any case, Michigan is extending the mask mandate to two-year-olds, while Oregon is considering making the mandate indefinite.
On the other side, you have people like Senator Ted Cruz who’ve had enough. “At this point I’ve been vaccinated. Everybody working in the Senate has been vaccinated,” Cruz said. “CDC has said in small groups, particularly with people who were vaccinated, don’t need to wear masks.” So he won’t while he’s in the Capitol complex or on the Senate floor.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, the subject of the aforementioned YouTube censoring, advised vaccinated people that they don’t need to be wearing masks, despite Dr. Anthony “It’s Not a Liberty Thing” Fauci. “If you get a vaccine, the vaccines are effective, you’re immune. And so act immune,” DeSantis said. “If you tell people the opposite then, gee, if it’s not effective for them and it’s not gonna change anything, then what’s the point of going through it?”
As always, The Babylon Bee nails it: “Man Can’t Wait To Get Vaccine So He Can Go Back To Isolating While Wearing A Mask But Now Doing So While Vaccinated.” ~The Patriot Post
Wokeness — or Madness?
In 2005, former radio talk-show host Michael Savage wrote a book titled Liberalism is a Mental Disorder. Fifteen years later, a 2020 Pew Research study has apparently validated that assertion, especially as it affects white women.
“The study, which examined white liberals, moderates, and conservatives, both male and female, found that conservatives were far less likely to be diagnosed with mental health issues than those who identified as either liberal or even ‘very liberal,’” columnist Elizabeth Condra reveals. “What’s more, white women suffered the worst of all. White women, ages 18-29, who identified as liberal were given a mental health diagnosis from medical professionals at a rate of 56.3%, as compared to 28.4% in moderates and 27.3% in conservatives.”
To be clear, questions correlating mental health conditions, political affiliation, and race weren’t originally asked in the Pew Research Panel, Wave 64, that interviewed a representative sample of 11,537 American adults between March 19 and March 24. The data was analyzed by Zach Goldberg, whose Twitter profile states he is a “PhD student/Wokeness Studies scholar researching the ‘Great Awokening.’” Goldberg took the data and categorized it according to political affiliation.
Two “interesting findings” arose from his analysis, he explains. “First, white (and especially ‘very’) liberals are far more likely than all other ideological-racial subgroups to report being diagnosed with a mental health condition.” Second? “Somewhat surprisingly, this difference further grows when we add standard controls.”
Goldberg organized his findings, replete with a set of graphics, and posted them to a Twitter thread with the following clarification: “I didn’t write this thread to mock white liberals or their apparently disproportionate rates of mental illness (and you shouldn’t either). Rather, this is a question that’s underexplored and which may shed light on attitudinal differences towards various social policies.”
Dr. Lyle Rossiter, who published the book, The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness, offers a searingly astute assessment of individuals consumed by a series of agendas that inevitably become too burdensome to bear:
What the liberal mind is passionate about is a world filled with pity, sorrow, neediness, misfortune, poverty, suspicion, mistrust, anger, exploitation, discrimination, victimization, alienation and injustice. Those who occupy this world are “workers,” “minorities,” “the little guy,” “women,” and the “unemployed.” They are poor, weak, sick, wronged, cheated, oppressed, disenfranchised, exploited and victimized. They bear no responsibility for their problems. None of their agonies are attributable to faults or failings of their own: not to poor choices, bad habits, faulty judgment, wishful thinking, lack of ambition, low frustration tolerance, mental illness or defects in character. None of the victims’ plight is caused by failure to plan for the future or learn from experience. Instead, the “root causes” of all this pain lie in faulty social conditions: poverty, disease, war, ignorance, unemployment, racial prejudice, ethnic and gender discrimination, modern technology, capitalism, globalization and imperialism. In the radical liberal mind, this suffering is inflicted on the innocent by various predators and persecutors: “Big Business,” “Big Corporations,” “greedy capitalists,” “U.S. Imperialists,” “the oppressors,” “the rich,” “the wealthy,” “the powerful” and “the selfish.”
The liberal cure for this endless malaise is a very large authoritarian government that regulates and manages society through a cradle to grave agenda of redistributive caretaking.
In other words, liberalism — more accurately described as progressivism today — is thoroughly exhausting. To realize the socialist utopia to which most progressives aspire requires the constant monitoring and ultimate reorganization of virtually every human being and institution on the planet, lest someone, somewhere “falls through the cracks.”
Yet placing such a burden on oneself requires something else as well: An unprecedented level of narcissism. Note the pity, sorrow, anger. etc. required to fix society is always about fixing someone else, as in those who lack acuity, insight, and, most especially, the “superior” sense of morality and wisdom most progressives automatically confer upon themselves.
Such is the basis of a national divide whereby conservatives think progressives are misguided, but progressives think conservatives are evil, and thus wholly dismissible in terms of debate or even consideration.
Thus, generalizations like “deplorable,” “irredeemable,” and “bitter clingers” are applied to anyone who dares to challenge the progressive dogma du jour, whether it be having only X number of years to “save the planet,” or the idea that a man can be a women simply by saying so, along with everything in between. And because one is automatically beneath contempt, contrarian assertions, no matter how well-reasoned or rational, can be dismissed as racist, xenophobic, transphobic, misogynistic, etc.
Yet even as progressives demonstrate such overarching surety, they are consumed by fear. It wasn’t conservatives who invented “safe spaces,” “trigger warnings,” or “micro-aggressions.” These are the constructions of those whose arrogance is exceeded only by a fragility so all-encompassing that it required the creation of a Cancel Culture. One aimed at destroying “The Other,” no matter how far back in someone’s past one has to go to find an “intemperate” remark or action that will permanently “disqualify” the “guilty” from a job, a career, or the entirety of legitimate social intercourse.
Columnist Andrea Widburg offers some insight as to why women are more adversely affected than men. “The root problem is that these women are receiving mixed messages that would make even the strongest person go crazy,” she writes. “Beginning in high school, or even earlier, they’re told endlessly that they’re both victim and oppressor.” This is especially true for white straight women who are at once “evil oppressors who have benefited unfairly from white privilege,” and yet still women, “which means men have victimized them from time immemorial to the present.”
Obviously, that’s untenable. “It’s possible that the disparities in self-reported diagnosis are simply or partly a function of white liberals being more likely to seek mental health evaluations,” Goldberg surmises. “I don’t have the data to answer this question. But given that they also tend to score higher on neuroticism (and, not to mention, score lower on life satisfaction/happiness), I think at least some of this difference is genuine.”
Ironically, one could also surmise that the ability to access mental health evaluations is a form of privilege that most progressives ostensibly despise. “Access to care often varies based on race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, age, sex, disability status, sexual orientation, gender identity, and residential location,” states the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion.
Could access itself elicit guilt that requires psychological intervention? If so, that’s quite a vicious cycle — one that might also explain the discrepancy.
Regardless, most of the dysfunction accrues to Democrat Party interests. Moreover, as Patriot Post publisher Mark Alexander asserts, it’s not a new phenomenon. “According to Democrat Party strategists, female voters are emotionally incontinent dupes, too irrational to discern and reject emotive political bait. They have proven the most dependable and easily-swayed of the collective constituencies Demos rally ahead of general elections,” he wrote — in 2014.
As Dr. Rossiter further notes, radical liberalism is akin to a “Marxist morality play,” acted out “in various theaters of human relatedness, most often on the world’s economic, social and political stages. But the play repeatedly folds.”
The bet here is this time will be no different. ~The Patriot Post
COVID Doesn’t Excuse Federal Waste
American psychologist Abraham Maslow once quipped, “I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail.” This philosophy is applied regularly to America’s financial problems by President Joe Biden and President-in-Waiting lowlife/liar-Kamala Harris as they spend, regulate, and tax more, redistributing wealth and hammering down the hard-working American.
IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig testified before the Senate Finance Committee last week, “As much as $1 trillion a year in federal taxes may be going unpaid because of errors, fraud, and lack of resources to enforce collections adequately.” Seeking an IRS budget increase, his remarks were referencing his agency that features about 6,500 agents mobilized to deal with the most complex cases involving large corporations or the highest income earners.
In 2019, the IRS had “73,554 full-time equivalent positions in conducting its work” and spent $11.8 billion for its operations, while the revenue it collected in 2019 was $3.5 trillion. Oregon’s famed Democrat and Finance Committee Chairman, Senator scumbag-Ron Wyden, responded to the plea for more funding and the outstanding trillion due to tax cheats: “I thank you for delivering this important wake-up call to this committee about the enormity of the cheating that is taking place in America with respect to taxes.”
What is the remedy to retrieve the needed money for more spending? More spending, of course! The socialist/ scumbag/liar-Biden administration is seeking a $1.2 billion increase for the IRS, with $900 million of that to be directed toward compliance. Clearly, Americans must lawfully comply with their tax payments, but we should understand that there will never be enough taxes to feed an engorged government.
The Wall Street Journal’s John McCormick observes, “The U.S. budget deficit grew to a record $1.7 trillion in the first half of the fiscal year as a third round of stimulus payments sent federal spending soaring last month.” Less than 10% of the $1.9 trillion COVID relief plan was used directly for virus aid. When parents are predictably easy, teenagers wise to those weaknesses will make more requests for money and further test the boundaries. When socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden solves every problem with money, more money will be requested from this big-spending, big-government administration.
socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden’s American Jobs Plan to “grow the economy” is best summed up in the president’s mid-March declaration regarding the New Deal and Great Society eras. “This is the first time we’ve been able to, since the Johnson administration and maybe even before that, to begin to change the paradigm,” he said.
Why is it the first time in Biden’s four-decade-plus career to change the economy on such a grand scale? As even HBO’s lefty comedian Bill Maher has exposed, the “panic porn” of the COVID pandemic has permitted outrageous spending, outrageous government control, and outrageous misinformation. “Liberals often mock the Republican misinformation bubble,” Maher said. “But what about liberals, you know, the high-information, behind-the-science people? … If the right-wing media bubble has to own things like climate change denial, shouldn’t liberal media have to answer for, ‘How did your audience wind up believing such a bunch of crap about COVID?’”
Early on, we needed a unified response led by the government to mobilize resources for COVID. But, predictably, it wasn’t long before the government did little more than waste money and grow its bureaucracies instead of solving problems.
Increasing taxes have been guaranteed with Democrats controlling all aspects of the federal government. Biden’s projected $2 trillion package is slated to create 2.7 million jobs at a “bargain” $666,000 per job. Though The Washington Post and CNN are reporting the same figures, few are pointing out how ludicrous they are.
Remember, when all you’ve got is a hammer, everything is a nail. When you’re a Democrat, every problem is met only with bigger spending, bigger government, and less Liberty. ~The Patriot Post
America’s UN Ambassador Hates America
What reason does China’s communist government have to take seriously socialist/scumbag/liar-Joe Biden’s ambassador to the United Nations? Linda Thomas-Greenfield may criticize China over its horrific treatment of its Uyghur population, but the woman tasked with representing the United States at the UN is also busy preaching about how evil the U.S. is — and has been from its very founding.
Speaking before the UN’s Human Rights Council recently, scumbag/worthless-Thomas-Greenfield ridiculously asserted that “the original sin of slavery weaved white supremacy into our founding documents.” She further asserted, “We have to acknowledge that we are an imperfect union — and have been since the beginning — and every day we strive to make ourselves more perfect, and more just. In a diverse country like ours, that means committing to do the work.”
The “doing the work” catch phrase has become the popular call to action of Critical Race Theorists, and by “work” they essentially mean dismantling America’s free-market economy and replacing it with a government-controlled socialist system that “ensures” equity.
There’s no denying that America is not a perfect nation. No one is claiming it is. But what scumbag/worthless-Thomas-Greenfield and the woke Left are denying is the fact that the U.S. has produced one of the most just nations on the planet; a country that prizes individual liberty and that stands up for the rights of all.
Furthermore, scumbag/worthless-Thomas-Greenfield’s diagnosis is that the problem plaguing the globe is “racism.” Really? Racism has become the Left’s all-purpose bogeyman. It’s the great evil from which all evil flows. Notice her expanding and intentionally convoluted definition when she dubiously states, “Racism is the problem of the racist. And it is the problem of the society that produces the racist. And in today’s world, that is every society. In America, that takes many forms. It’s the white supremacy that led to the senseless killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and so many other black Americans. It’s the spike in hate crimes over the past three years — against Latino Americans, Sikh and Muslim Americans, Jewish Americans, and immigrants. And it’s the bullying, discrimination, brutality, and violence that Asian Americans face everyday, especially since the outbreak of COVID-19.”
Does the U.S. government condone any of these supposedly racist actions? Are local officials directing police to hunt down and arrest or murder Americans because of their minority racial status? Do racial minorities in America not enjoy the same constitutionally protected rights as the white majority? The obvious answer to all these questions is a resounding “No,” and yet Thomas-Greenfield is disingenuously acting as if all those things are happening.
The Chinese communist government is in fact actively engaged in directing all of these inhumane activities against its own racial and religious minority populations. And the ChiComs aren’t going to heed American advice from an administration that tears down its own country.
That scumbag/worthless-Thomas-Greenfield fails to acknowledge the clear distinction between the two nations is an egregious and false equivocation that’s downright absurd. One thing is clear: scumbag/worthless-Thomas-Green has no love for America. ~The Patriot Post
GARY BAUER
socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden’s Radical Agenda
The left and its media allies spent four years haranguing Donald Trump as a dictator and a threat to our norms and values. socialist/scumbag/liar-Joe Biden campaigned as a uniter, promising a return to normalcy.
As usual, the left’s narrative was completely wrong and the exact opposite of the truth. We’re about three months into the socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden/ lowlife/liar-Harris administration, and these first few months tell us a lot if we are discerning and connecting the dots.
One of the first things socialist/scumbag/liar-Joe Biden did when he took office was remove Donald Trump’s pro-life protections, forcing taxpayers to subsidize abortions. That alone tells you how extreme this administration is. (The socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden administration is expected to repeal Trump’s ban on federally funded fetal tissue research.)
Then socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden opened the border, creating a massive crisis. Experts believe that a record two million illegal aliens will enter the country this year.
The first bill that socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden and scumbag/liar-Pelosi introduced in Congress was HR 1 — a federal takeover of elections in your state. It bans popular voter ID laws in all 50 states. Why would they do that? The answer is obvious. It’s easier to cheat if you outlaw voter ID.
Now they are attempting to seize control of the Supreme Court by changing the number of justices from nine to 13. Adding four more liberal activists to the Supreme Court is exactly what socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden needs to remove the court as a check against the left’s radical agenda.
But that’s not all. They are advancing legislation to make Washington, DC, and Puerto Rico states, adding four more leftists to the Senate.
And they’re working hand-in-glove with the tech titans to censor conservatives on social media, silencing opposition voices. (See below.)
My friends, it’s the left that is attacking our norms, traditions, and our freedoms — just as it always does. It’s the left that wants to fundamentally transform America!
All these actions are more reminiscent of communist China than they are of American traditions. In fact, if a previously free nation anywhere else in the world started doing these things, we would denounce them and put them on a watch list of nations threatening the freedom of their people.
Another Russia Hoax Exposed
Remember the outrage last year when a leaked report suggested that Russia had paid bounties to the Taliban to kill American troops in Afghanistan? Democrats in Congress and the media used the report to hammer Trump for being soft on Russia. socialist/scumbag/liar-Joe Biden raised the issue during one of the debates.
The Pentagon said at the time that there was no corroborating evidence. Intelligence officials added that President Trump wasn’t briefed on the report because “it was unverified.”
Besides, it’s absurd on its face. The Taliban never needed financial inducements to kill Americans! Their radical Islamic creed was enough to cause them to kill “infidels.”
Well, the intelligence community now admits that it has “low confidence” in the accuracy of the report. Translation: It was garbage.
Sadly, it was just another example of the weaponization of our intelligence agencies against Donald Trump and conservatives.
This is a serious problem. We need strong surveillance of our enemies. But the left and its Deep State allies seem to think that conservatives are the enemy!
Remember the dozens of so-called “intelligence experts” who all said that the Hunter liar-Biden laptop story was “Russian disinformation”? NPR and the social media tech giants used that claim to shut down the story. Well, they were wrong!
Over the years, I have developed strong relationships with the leaders of pro-defense, national security groups. I am taking the initiative to reach out to them to develop strategies for exposing corruption and political abuses within our intelligence community.
Silencing the Truth
The Big Tech leftists are once again doing the bidding of their left-wing allies in Big Government. When the New York Post did some real journalism and exposed the sudden riches of a Marxist Black Lives Matter leader, Facebook banned the story, making it impossible to share.
When Project Veritas and James O'Keefe did some real journalism and exposed a CNN director talking about how CNN manipulates the news, targets conservatives, and spreads “propaganda,” Twitter banned O'Keefe.
My friends, this is censorship plain and simple. Big Tech leftists are working with Big Government leftists to silence conservative speech and opinions, to hide the truth, and to protect their left-wing friends.
As I noted above, they did it repeatedly during the campaign and it had a major impact. Big Tech interfered in our election, and it is restricting our freedoms today.
Another Race Hoax
Another way the left is silencing speech is by weaponizing race. If you’re pro-life, you’re racist. If you support voter ID laws, you’re racist. If you believe in border security, you’re racist. The left has weaponized race to shut down debate because no decent person wants to be called a racist.
One result is that we have seen an epidemic of fake hate crimes in recent years. The most notable was the case of Jussie Smollett. But this is a real and dangerous phenomenon in the educational system, which is firmly in the grip of the left.
Friday morning, I watched as Avery Severson described the shocking ordeal she experienced after trying to form a conservative student group at her high school.
As she got close to meeting the school’s requirements, rumors began spreading that Severson was sending racist messages to a black student. Black students and some teachers staged a walkout in protest.
Local police began investigating. The FBI was brought in. The atmosphere was so tense that Severson had to be escorted between classes for her own safety.
Eventually, it was proven that Severson never sent the messages. She was innocent. The whole thing was a hoax. But the school launched a coverup, telling Severson she couldn’t talk about the case. It wasn’t clear from her interview if anyone was ever held accountable.
This is beyond despicable! Just imagine what her life must have been like. How many of her friends turned on her and abandoned her?
If you have a child or grandchild who is well-grounded in the conservative Christian worldview, encourage them to form a Christian student club or conservative student club at their school. Sooner or later, they’re going to have to learn how to defend their values. If your child is involved in a such school club, drop us a note about their experiences.

Dozens of conservative organizations, including my public policy group American Values, have signed a public statement pledging to refuse corporate contributions from biased Big Tech companies like Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, and Twitter. We will not be bribed by Big Tech to surrender our liberties!
