If America is systemically racist why are white people pretending to be Black?

Democrats keep telling us that American is systemically racist and Blacks in America are going through hell.

Yet we don't hear about Black people trying to pass for white like they did in the Democrat run South. The Democrats made the South a racist hell hole with the Jim Crow laws and cops being able to brutalize and kill Blacks with impunity and the KKK running roughshod.

To avoid that Blacks who weren't very dark skinned tried to pass as whites.  Even in the 1970s I had a friend in college who was a Jew but very dark skinned who was concerned people would think he was Black.  Someone I worked with was a very light skinned Black man and he told me once that he was driving through southern Illinois and wanted to get a hotel room. He covered his curly hair with a hat and tried to get a room in hotel but the clerk said they didn't serve his type.

It makes sense in a systemically racist society that Blacks would want to be thought of as whites in order to avoid the oppressive system.

But during those years where the Democrat run South was systemically racist one never heard of whites pretending to be Black.  After all that would be insane; why pretend to be someone in order to be oppressed?

Today however there are lots of whites who are pretending to be Black.  Rachel Dolezal was president of the Spokane branch of the NAACP when she was outed as being white.

Jessica Krug a George Washington University history professor who'd claimed to be Black said she's sorry for her “continued appropriation of a black Caribbean identity.” She confessed: “I am not a culture vulture. I am a culture leech.”.

In Indianapolis a Black Lives Matter activist who has two white parents admitted to pretending to be Black for years.

A graduate student at the University of Wisconsin school of Journalism and Mass Communications admitted to pretending to not be white; they resigned from their teaching position.

It's clear that there can't be systemic racism in America if in fact white people are pretending to be Black. There can be racism but it can't be the systemic widespread racism that was prevalent in the Democrat run South.

But we all know that. Other than a tiny number of white nationalists, like the one who endorsed Joe Biden,  every white person in America is afraid of being called a racist just like they're afraid of being called a Nazi precisely because nearly all white Americans condemn racism.

Even racists like Joe Biden are desperate to avoid the label because they know how toxic it is.

And Joe is a racist for the following reasons:

  • He says nothing about the thousands of Blacks being shot in Democrat cities each year
  • He says that Blacks who don't vote the way he tells them to aren't Black
  • He says that all Blacks think alike

  • “You cannot go to a 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian Accent.” — Joe Biden
  • Despite Jesse Jackson having run for President Joe said “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man.” —Joe Biden on Barack Obama.
  • “Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.” — Joe Biden
  • He said that Obama was the first "clean" "articulate" Black presidential candidate even though Jesse Jackson had previously tried for the Democrat nomination
  • He eulogized a man who founded his own KKK chapter
  • He assumes that it's Blacks who stock store shelves
  • His immigration policies hurt Blacks
  • He refuses to condemn Antifa/BLM as they burn down Black neighborhoods
  • “I organized a civil rights boycott because they wouldn’t serve black kids. One of our football players was black and we went there, and they said they wouldn’t serve him. And I said to the others, ‘Hey, we can’t go in there.’ So, we all left.” —Joe Biden made up a claim about organizing a boycott of a segregated restaurant.
  • “When I marched in the Civil Rights movement, I did not march with a 12-point program, I marched with tens of thousands of others to change attitudes, and we changed attitudes.” — Joe Biden lied about marching with the Civil Rights movement. He never actually did that.
Joe doesn't want Blacks on the back of the bus but he sure makes it clear he think's they should do what they're told.

Democrat Governor of Illinois is destroying the restaurant business

Billionaire governor Prizker's ban on indoor dining in Illinois is going to destroy the restaurant industry and he doesn't care.

You can't eat outside in Chicago in the fall or winter; one year it was so cold that Brookfield Zoo said that the polar bears were staying inside because it was too cold outside.

Hence if Prizker has his way restaurants will go out of business because few if any have the cash reserves to last 6 months with no income.  Tens of thousands of people will probably lose their jobs.

And the ban will do no good.  The reality is that unless only over 50 or who have a serious health condition need to be any more concerned with the China virus than they are by the flu.

Let those people avoid restaurants. There's no reason for young people to do so. Especially since restaurants have invested huge amounts of money in air filtration systems and other sanitizing systems to minimize the risk.

But no ultra rich Prizker doesn't want we peons to decide what level of risk we're willing to take; he knows what's best for all of us.

There is no evidence that restaurants are key sources where COVID19 spreads but science apparently doesn't matter to Prizker or the other Democrat's who simultaneously tighten the screws on daily life while applauding massive riots and protests where social distancing and mask wearing are ignored.


Joe Biden's best bud China is cracking down on religious funerals and weddings

 The Communist Chinese government has already banned crosses but now it's moving to persecute people who want a religious wedding or funeral.

The funeral for a 73 year old man was disrupted with government officials seizing flags with Bible verses and detaining some believers.

In another city government agents stormed a funeral and dispersed attendees including people who belong to the Three-Self church which is recognized by the Communists.

A Buddhist who was reciting sutras for the dead was charged with "privately setting up a religious venue" and his house was destroyed.

Minors aren't allowed to attend weddings in a church in Luoyang in Henan province and any such weddings require government approval.

Yet Joe Biden, a devout Catholic, says nothing. Or rather he does say something; he says that China isn't our enemy and that a prosperous China is good for the US.

I suppose if the government of China had given my family millions of dollars I might tend to sound oddly supportive of China too.

Reasons to vote for Joe Biden

 If you want higher taxes Joe Biden has promised to repeal Trump's tax cuts which will increase taxes for 80% of Americans

If you want the poor to pay higher taxes; Joe's replacing cheap oil and gas with expensive "green" energy will significantly increase the cost of energy which is a regressive tax on the poor since the poor spend a higher percentage of their money on energy.

If you want Iran to get the atom bomb; Joe was keen about ensuring that they do so long as they do so after Obama left office

If you want the US to send money to Iran even though we know some of it will be used for terrorism because that's what Joe did as VP

If you want China to get stronger; Joe keeps telling us that's in the best interests of the US

If you want riots, looting, and violence against Joe's enemies because he was supportive of it until the polls showed that wasn't working for him

If you work in the oil/gas industry and you want to be unemployed

If you want Antifa/BLM to use violence against anyone they don't like; Joe still refuses to condemn either group

If you want the President's family to have received millions of dollars from the Chinese government and a Russian oligarch for no obvious reason

If you want Catholic nuns to be forced to provide contraceptives and abortion inducing chemicals.

If you want the Supreme Court to be a rubber stamp for whatever the DNC wants; Joe is going to pack the court with dishonest judges who don't rule based on what the law says but on what the DNC wants it to say

If you want more foreign military involvement; remember when Joe was VP ISIS ran wild and we overthrew the government of Libya

If you want to return to the high unemployment and slow economic growth of the Biden/Obama years

If you want more government regulations

If you've got a car but want to be forced to buy a new expensive electric car

If you want to lose your 2nd Amendment rights 

If you want money taken away from the police and given to social workers which has already resulted in increased violent crimes in cities like New York

If you want to die from COVID19. Joe said that New York did a great job with the China virus but if the rest of the country had the same fatality rate as NY 564,000 Americans would have died by now

If you want to pay to replace your gas furnace, water heater, and/or stove

If you want to be locked down forever while government bureaucrats keep getting paid

If you want where you live to be like California where rolling blackouts, power outages lasting weeks or months, poverty is 3x the rate it is in the rest of the country, homelessness is exploding,  a small fixer upper house can go for over $1M, and public workers pension funds are underfunded by hundreds of billions of dollars

If you want the people who weaponized the FBI/DOJ against a sitting President because they didn't like the election results to get away with it

If you want to ensure that the Biden family keeps raking in millions in exchange for selling out the US

What's sad is that these are all actually reasons that leftists are voting for Joe.

White Democrats say they can define who is Black and who is a woman

 Joe Biden is on record as saying that Blacks who don't agree with him aren't really Black.

We also know that Democrats reject the settled science that in order for a man to become a woman he has to change his DNA.  They in fact say that a woman is any human being who says they're a woman.

But recently they've amended that a bit. A human being who says they're a woman, and is a woman in the case of Amy Coney Barrett, but who doesn't endorse white male Democrat backed policies, like abortion for any reason at any point and shortly after pregnancy, isn't really a woman like RBG was.

This is the ultimate conclusion of the Democrat's 1984 word redefining machine; who we are is defined by powerful white Democrats not reality.

Democrat politicians don't want to represent you; they want to rule over you and force you to live the way that they want you to live.

Joe Biden wants to force Catholic nuns to cooperate in providing contraception and abortion inducing chemicals and his base cheers him for it.  No one forces anyone to work for Catholic nuns and contraception isn't healthcare because pregnancy isn't a disease.  Yet Joe thinks that we the people have no right to exercise our faith in direct contradiction to the Constitution which says we do.

There is no aspect of your life that Democrats don't feel able and justified to control.

Joe Biden's character is worse than Trump's

The #FakeNews media keeps propping up Joe's image but the reality is he's a much nastier person than Trump is.  Sure  Joe will smile and act all grandfatherly when he lies to you and stabs you in the back but Trump's honesty is actually a sign of a better character.

Joe's got a temper and when he's bothered he gets far nastier than Trump does. When he got in an argument with a pro-gun auto worker Joe not only said he doesn't work for we the people but he asked the worker if he wanted to step outside--ie if he wanted to have a fist fight with Joe.  Trump has never threatened to punch out a voter who didn't agree with him.

In 1987 he was asked how he finished in law school and his first response was to say that he was much smarter than the questioner.

While it's clear that in the past Trump has been an adulterer it's also clear that Joe has a lot of problems with women. 8 women have accused Joe of inappropriate touching and one woman has accused him of sexual assault.  For all Trump's failings his affairs seem to have been consensual.

Joe is willing to tell any lie. He knows that Trump never said white supremacists are "fine people" but Joe keeps telling that lie over and over.

Joe is clearly lying about Hunter's laptop being Russian disinformation since both the FBI and the DNI have said there is no evidence that that's the case.

Joe has shown he's cool with racists. Democrat Senator Robert Byrd formed his own chapter of the KKK but Joe had no trouble eulogizing Byrd at Byrd's funeral.

Joe has sold himself to foreign companies and countries.

The Democrats and Joe want you to believe that it's just a coincidence that the one and only corrupt foreign official that Joe personally ensured was fired in his 8 years as VP was the one and only foreign official who was investigating the Ukraine company that gave Hunter Biden millions of dollars for no discernible reason.

We have known for a long time that the Chinese government gave Hunter Biden $1.5 billion to invest, meaning Hunter would get tens of millions of dollars as commissions, right after Hunter and Joe went to China. 

Further Joe keeps blaming Trump for the China virus even though it was the deliberate actions of the Chinese government to ignore the virus and hope that it went away that led to the global pandemic.  Even worse Joe condemned Trump for the China travel ban and is on record as saying that a strong China is good for the US.


Joe won't say that the Hunter Biden e-mails are fake only that he and Hunter haven't done anything wrong even though the emails show clear evidence of corruption.

One last thing. While people condemned Trump for interrupting in the 1st debate if you read the transcript you'll find that it's Joe who interrupted twice before Trump started interrupting.

Joe is a nasty person who puts his family's wealth ahead of American interests.  If you want to vote character vote for Trump.

Most Biden voters aren't evil; only misinformed

 ArchBishop Fulton J. Sheen once said:

“There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate The Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be.”

As a Catholic I constantly encounter Protestants who sincerely believe that Catholics believe in things we don't. For example many Protestants think Catholics worship Mary when in reality we know she's a creature like us whose only power is to turn in prayer to her son Jesus.

Frankly most Catholics would instantly leave the Church if the Church taught what Protestants think it does.

The same phenomena applies to Biden voters.  Because the media is constantly lying to them and concealing from them information that hurts Biden I'd estimate that about 80% of Biden's voters aren't actually voting for Joe but against a fake Trump and for a fake Joe.

Here are few things that those Biden voters "know" are true because they've been lied to so much but which aren't in fact true:
  • Trump is a racist
  • Trump has said that white supremacists are "fine people"
  • Trump has tried to cut social security
  • Trump didn't improve the economy
  • Trump's tax cuts only helped the very rich
  • Trump called all illegal aliens animals
  • Trump tried to ban Muslim immigration
  • Trump is responsible for all China virus deaths
  • Trump colluded with Russia
  • Trump demanded that Ukraine investigate Joe Biden's obvious corruption or they wouldn't get weapons
  • Trump doesn't pay taxes
Here are somethings that those Biden voters have never heard about Trump that are true:
  • Trump has brought a huge number of jobs back to America
  • Trump's tax cuts and reductions in regulations caused the economic boom
  • Trump killed an Iranian terrorist mastermind and Iran did nothing significant in retaliation
  • Trump refused to get us in a war with our NATO ally Turkey and contrary to media fears there was no slaughter of Kurds because Trump told Turkey that was a no no
  • Trump was appalled at what happened to George Floyd
  • Trump has repeatedly condemned white supremacists
  • Trump said that peaceful demonstrators both for and against taking down the Civil War statues were fine people
  • Trump has dramatically improved our trade agreements and brought jobs back to America
  • Trump has avoided any new "forever" wars and is winding down the war in Afghanistan
  • Mueller's report showed that Trump didn't collude with Russia
  • Schiff and other Democrat politician lied about having evidence of collusion
Here are some things about Joe Biden that Biden voters don't know about because the media hides them:
  • Joe said that Blacks who don't vote for him aren't Black
  • Joe eulogized a KKK recruiter
  • Joe gets confused and says he's running for Senate
  • Joe gets confused and says that Kamala Harris will be President
  • Joe has repeatedly said that he'll ban fracking and shut down the oil and gas industry
  • Joe agreed with Obama telling the FBI to investigate Flynn after the head of the FBI said Flynn did nothing wrong
  • When Joe was VP the FBI lied to the FISA court and spied on the Trump campaign
  • The one and only corrupt foreign official that Joe personally saw to was fired was the one and only foreign official who was investigating a company that was paying the Biden family millions of dollars
  • The FBI and the DNI say that the Hunter Biden emails aren't Russian disinformation
  • Joe has never actually said that the Hunter emails are fake
  • The Biden family has gotten millions of dollars from the Chinese government
  • Joe's tax plan will repeal the Trump tax cuts which would result in 81% of Americans paying more taxes
  • Joe has said he'll use the full power of the government to force Catholic nuns to help supply people with contraceptives and abortion inducing chemicals
  • Joe supports taxpayers paying for elective, ie non-health or rape related, abortions
  • Joe told us Obamacare was great now he's telling us it needs massive fixes.
  • Joe's moral compass is defined by the Democrat party not the Catholic Church
  • Joe's web site says he favors allowing biological men to compete in women's sports
Here are somethings that Biden voters think are true about Joe but which aren't:
  • Joe never talked to Hunter about Hunter's deals with foreign companies and governments
  • Joe has always been a staunch supporter of Civil Rights and participated in Civil Rights protests
  • Joe won't raise their taxes
  • Joe doesn't plan to ban fracking
  • When Joe was VP no one lost their health insurance due to Obamacare
  • The Hunter Biden emails are nothing more than Russian disinformation
  • Joe's full of energy and able to run the country
  • Joe has no signs of cognitive decline
  • Joe doesn't plan to pack the Supreme Court
  • Joe believes in religious liberty
  • Joe's a good Catholic
  • Joe doesn't support the Green New Deal
All of these are very short lists but they're long enough to prove the point; for someone who lives in the fake world manufactured by the #FakeNews media it makes sense to vote for Joe and against Trump.

The good news is that only about 20% of Americans support the real Joe Biden but the bad news is that close to 30% of Americans will cast their vote for the fake Joe Biden.

We don't have much time but reach out to your mislead friends and just show them how much they've been lied to.

Here's a picture that refutes the whole Trump is racist theme:

Here's a video of Trump condemning white nationalists a number of times:




Here's what Trump really said about illegal aliens being animals; he was only talking about MS-13 gang members:


SHERIFF MIMS: Thank you. There could be an MS-13 member I know about — if they don’t reach a certain threshold, I cannot tell ICE about it.

THE PRESIDENT: We have people coming into the country, or trying to come in — and we’re stopping a lot of them — but we’re taking people out of the country. You wouldn’t believe how bad these people are. These aren’t people. These are animals. And we’re taking them out of the country at a level and at a rate that’s never happened before. And because of the weak laws, they come in fast, we get them, we release them, we get them again, we bring them out. It’s crazy.

Here's what the non-partisan CBO predicted the US employment situation would look like if Biden and Obama's economic polices were continued vs what happened due to Trump's policies:

The red line is actual employment numbers.  The dark line is what the CBO predicted in 2016 which would have had to be based on assuming Biden/Obama's policies continued

These are all examples of how the #FakeNews media lies to us.  Hopefully if they see that they've been lied to they will wake up and start thinking about voting for Trump.

Democrat abortion extremism; they're for abortion for any reason at any time

 Democrats have fought against laws that would have prevented abortions based on race, sex, or disability.  That means that Democrat politicians support a woman's "right" to kill her unborn daughter because she wants a boy. It also means that they support killing unborn babies who might be "defective".

In 2012 House Democrat the vast majority of Democrats opposed a law that would have prohibited abortions based on the father's race or the unborn child's sex.

Joe Biden used to oppose using taxpayer dollars to support elective abortions but he's all for taxing you to pay for women's abortions. Given that only 0.3% of abortions are due to a threat to the mother's life and only 0.14% are due to rape it's clear that Joe's all you paying for killing unborn babies who aren't "wanted".

Democrats reject the right of doctors to refuse to do abortions based on their religious beliefs. In 2019 the Democrat controlled House advanced the Medicare for America Act which says “Health care providers and institutions are prohibited from denying covered individuals access to covered benefits and services because of their religious objections.”

Democrats in the Senate voted for infanticide by voting against a bill that would require a baby who survived an abortion attempt and who was alive and well outside her mother's body to get medical care.  Like Democrat Governor Northam of Virginia they believe that if the mother want to kill her born alive and no longer depended daughter she has the right to do so.

Democrat run states like New York are passing laws legalizing abortion for any reason at any point a pregnancy, including while the woman is giving birth.

Long gone are the days that Democrats want abortion to be "safe, legal, and rare". Now they celebrate the slaughter of the unborn which sends around 1,000,000 unborn babies into buckets with other "medical waste" each year.

It's interesting that Democrats also aren't bothered by the fact that Black women abort at 3 times the rate of white women.  The nearly 200,000 extra Black babies aborted each year due to that disparity are a key reason why the leading cause of death for Blacks in America, outnumbering the next 7 causes combined, is abortion.

In New York City more Black babies are aborted than are born alive.

Yet you won't hear any Democrat politician talking about how abortion should stay safe and legal but that we need to address that huge racial disparity.

Remember it's Democrat politicians who tell us that any racial disparity like this has to be due to racism so by their silence Democrat politicians are endorsing racism.

It's official: Joe Biden hates women, sports edition

Joe Biden's web site says he supports allowing biological men to compete in women's sports.

Joe says he believes in science but that's clearly not true because if he did he'd know that even if they're taking drugs biological men are stronger, faster, and have better endurance than women do.

That's why when so so male athletes declare themselves to be women they suddenly start setting records.

Allowing biological men to compete in women's sports is amazingly anti-women because not only does it make it hard if not impossible for women to win in women's sports it essentially denies women athletic scholarships.

Women are wonderful people but they're simply not as athletic as men; that's why we've historically had women's sports because a woman who is the best at say the mile run should be able to win and be proud of herself.

But allowing any man who simply says he is really a woman--which is of course scientifically impossible--to compete with women is like having a bunch of NBA players compete with college students at basketball.

Joe clearly doesn't care about women because if he did he wouldn't be all for destroying women's sports.

Where's Hunter Biden?

 Joe Biden hasn't said that the emails found on Hunter Biden's computer are false or fake.

Hunter Biden has disappeared from the face of the earth.  If in fact the whole thing is Russian disinformation, despite the FBI and DNI saying it isn't, why hasn't Hunter surfaces to say so?

If in fact the whole sordid story of Biden corruption and Joe's selling his influence is bogus why isn't Hunter on CNN 24/7 telling us that?

Further if the story is bogus why aren't the #FakeNews media covering it to show people why it's bogus? Why are they instead totally ignoring it?

The answer to all these questions are simple. Joe and Hunter made money by selling out America and they, as well as Democrat politicians and #FakeNews media "reporters",  don't want you to know that.

Not all leftist media members are totally dishonest: Matt Taibbi edition

 Matt's a left winger but he doesn't like media censorship. He's got an interesting editorial at the New York Post where he points out that media deliberately hiding information damaging to Biden is not good for America.

He points out that if someone had come across Trump Jr's computer and it contained emails showing Russian collusion the media would be all over the story.

Yet we have Hunter Biden's computer and Twitter locked the New York Post's Twitter account for 2 weeks and prevented people from sharing the story.  Jack Dorsey lied to the Senate when he said they did that because they have a policy against disseminating hacked material because Twitter didn't block the NYT story about Trump's tax returns.

While Hunter's laptop was no longer his property since the contract he'd signed said that if he didn't claim it within 90 days, and pay his bill, the computer became the property of the repair shop owner it's a Federal crime to reveal someone's tax returns without their permission.

So clearly any anti-hacking policy at Twitter is not implemented fairly.

Further if you look up information about the whole Ukraine Burisma scandal it's surrounded by "context" that basically tries to make what Joe did sound ok.

But the facts are clear:

  • Hunter Biden has said to ABC on the air that the only reason that he got the job with Burisma was because he's Joe's son.
  • Hunter has no experience in the energy sector which is where Burisma makes its money
  • Never the less Hunter was paid between $50K and $83K a month by Burisma
  • Then a corrupt Ukraine prosecutor started to investigate Burisma
  • Suddenly Joe Biden tells the government of Ukraine that they have 6 hours to fire that prosecutor or they will lose $1B in US aid
  • The prosecutor is fired and the investigations into Burisma are ended
  • The one and only corrupt foreign official that Joe Biden personally got fired just happened to be the one and only corrupt foreign official who was investigating a company that was paying the Biden family millions of dollars

If we switched the Biden name for Trump the same people who are saying there's nothing to see here would be screaming for Trump to be perp walked out of the White House.

Taibbi points out that anyone who wanted to actually write about the Hunter Biden scandal faced huge headwinds and was unlikely to get their work into print but if a reporter wanted to fantasize about the whole thing being Russian disinformation they got only support.

While I don't agree with Taibbi about a lot I do admire the fact that he thinks that the media should be investigating all the evidence about Biden's corruption not ignoring it.

As he points out if the media are lying and suppressing information now they're likely to do it if Biden gets elected. And that's not good for we the people since we can't know what to support or oppose if we don't have the facts.

Democrat Governors use China Virus lockdown to discriminate against people of faith

 In Oregon State Democrat Governor Kate Brown has said that public schools with fewer than 75 students can reopen but she ordered private schools with fewer students to close.

What makes this even more egregious is that same Governor hasn't stopped the on-going rioting where masks and social distancing are totally ignored.  Apparently rioting is ok but God isn't in Democrat run Oregon.

Oh and then there's New York where the governor and the Mayor New York City extol riots and massive demonstrations but send the cops into Jewish homes if they think too many Jews are coming together.

In California the rules for churches and restaurants aren't the same with restaurants having more freedom.

In Nevada casinos are open and crowded but churches are closed or limited. And the Supreme Court said that was ok.

It's clear that Democrats are waging a war on your religious liberty. 

If you doubt that Google is a monopoly here's the process to select a different browser on an Android phone

 In the report of the House Antitrust Committee it said:

“in an internal presentation about [Microsoft] Internet Explorer’s default search selection, Google recommended that users be given an initial opportunity to select a search engine and that browsers minimize the steps required to change the default search provider.”

But here are the steps it takes to change default browsers on Android phones--remember Google provides the Android OS to phone vendors:
  1. Open Google Play
  2. Search “DuckDuckGo” (technically at least three clicks)
  3. Tap DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser
  4. Tap Install
  5. Navigate to the DuckDuckGo icon
  6. Long-press the DuckDuckGo icon
  7. Tap the widgets icon
  8. Long-press the widget and place on home screen
  9. Long-press the Google widget
  10. Tap Remove (process may differ and doesn't work on all devices, e.g., Google Pixel phones – go figure!)
Now you need to either make DuckDuckGo your default browser or make DuckDuckGo your default search engine in your preferred browser. Similar number of steps in either case, but we'll do the former since it is much better for privacy.
  1. Open Settings
  2. Search “browser” (technically at least two clicks)
  3. Tap Default browser app
  4. Tap DuckDuckGo
  5. Tap Home
Clearly Google is intentionally making it very hard for users to use anything other than Google.

By making it very hard for competitors to get a foothold Google is effectively a monopoly.

Time to break Google up or at least make it trivial for users to select other search engines.

The Anonymous Senior White House official who attacked Trump turns out to be a low level flunky

Back in 2018 the New York Times ran an Op-Ed by Anonymous who was billed as senior White House official.

To everyone, including the #FakeNews media, senior meant people like Pence, Pompeo, or a cabinet member. 

It turns out that the source was actually a politically biased low level aid who everyone had to look up to find out who he is.

When Miles Taylor wrote the op ed vowing to "resist" Trump, a blatantly dishonest thing for someone who is supposed to be working for the President to do, he wasn't DHS chief of staff he was just a DHS policy advisor.  A job he held for a few weeks. He had little access to the President so his "inside" insight was no better than that of any other of thousands of government employees.

Yet he and the NYT colluded to make we the people think that a senior member of Trump's White House was "resisting" and viciously attacking Trump. That wasn't the case.

This is another reason to not trust anything based on anonymous sources.

Oh did I mention that Taylor is on leave from Google and is currently a paid on-air contributor to CNN.

He also lied to Anderson Cooper who directly asked him if he was "Anonymous".

He milked the lie for personal enrichment too writing a book called "A Warning" which sold because it was supposedly written by someone in the know.  Essentially Taylor stole from every one who paid for the book by pretending to be someone who had inside access when he didn't.

He admits to deliberately lying in order to get more credibility than he would have if he hadn't pretended to be someone important.

And the NYT helped him. Don't forget that. The NYT deliberately fooled you so as to make a controversy that would hurt Trump.

Taylor and the NYT wanted you to think that someone who saw Trump on a daily, if not more frequent basis, was calling out Trump's bad policies. Instead it was just some random guy who didn't know anymore than any of thousands of government bureaucrats.

What's truly amazing is that one of his big attacks against Trump was that Trump's declaring the #FakeNews media to be a threat was evil.  Yet his entire story is an example of the #FakeNews media lying to you to get you to vote for Democrats.

Teacher's unions don't care about students: Chicago edition

 In Chicago public school teachers average more than $70,000 a year.

That despite the fact that they're failing most students and most especially Black students of whom only 17% test at grade level; more than 50% of white students test at grade level.

But now while private schools in Chicago are opening up the teacher's union is working hard to keep Chicago schools closed.

Given that Sweden has never shut its schools and the teachers had no higher mortality rates than IT workers it's clear that the teachers are just trying to avoid work not actually protect anyone.

Older teachers, say those above 50, who are at a higher risk from the China virus should be protected but there is absolutely no reason for the vast majority of teachers to avoid classes.

For many poor Black kids the schools are where they get meals and where violence against them can be detected. By keeping those kids home they're denied meals and no one will know if they're being abused.

Meanwhile white kids in private schools are getting a safe eduction. Sounds racist doesn't it?

Pediatricians have repeatedly said that kids will suffer more if the schools are kept closed but the teachers don't seem to care.

Apparently the teacher's union believes that the suffering their students will go through is an acceptable price to ensure that teachers get what they want.

The Left wants you to go without power to save the world; meanwhile they're silent about China's new coal plants

 David Mcdermott Hughes is saying that we should go without electricity, just like people in Zimbabwe do, in order to fight climate change.

What's odd is that David doesn't seem to mind that China, that already produces more CO2 per year than the US and the EU combined, is drastically increasing its CO2 production by building coal fired power plants.

But he says this about what we should do:

For a while, let’s eat a cold dinner here and there. Continuity[ having electricity 24 hours a day] costs too much. Climate change kills, and it kills vulnerable people first. Intermittency saves lives, and it saves vulnerable people first. Let the pause take its place in continuous climate activism.

So we're supposed to live like we're a third world country to save lives lost due to climate change but China is fine drastically increasing its CO2 production so that Chinese people have electricity 24 hours a day.

Of course there's no real evidence that people are causing any sort of existentially threatening or even serious bothersome climate change. Temperatures are increasing but slowly and on par with what we'd expect since we're coming out of a little ice age.

The seas kept rising despite Obama's claim that he'd stop that but then they've been rising since we started measuring them back in the 19th century long before mankind produced enough CO2 to make a difference. But once again as we exit a little ice age we expect the seas to rise.

David admits that people who are forced to live without 24/7 electricity don't like it and don't want to suffer through it but to him their suffering is a small price to pay for his feeling good about himself.

Zimbabwe and Puerto Rico thus provide models for what we might call pause-full electricity. Admittedly, neither Zimbabweans nor Puerto Ricans chose to accept this rationing. And in Zimbabwe, official incompetence has reduced electricity to a nearly unbearable degree. Still, Zimbabwe’s past and Puerto Rico’s potential indicate just and feasible ways of living amid intermittency.

What's interesting is that David doesn't even try to compare the negative impacts of climate change to the negative impacts of not having 24/7 electricity. For example the number of people who die from heat waves has gone way down since air conditioning has become more available.  But if we restrict the grid to solar and wind we know that we'll have to have power outages on hot days thereby effectively eliminating air conditioning.  David doesn't seem to consider that the people that would die because of that are a cost.

Of course we know that to make the US all "green" energy would require 3,474 years of the entire worlds cobalt production.  But David hasn't bothered to think about that.

The reality is that David and leftists like him who want Americans to live in the same sort of hell hole that people in Venezuela live in don't really think about the problem; they just let their emotions guide them.

Sadly that will result in lots of deaths.

This is what the Green New Deal is about; making politicians rich and making your life worse in order to make leftists feel good about themselves.

Kanye West condemns Black Genocide

Kanye isn't one of the uncle tom's who say whatever white Democrats want them to say. He's willing to stand up for Blacks and against the rich white, mostly Democrat, people who are all on board with Black women being 3 times as likely to abort their child as white women and with 81% of Planned Parenthood clinics being within walking distance of minority neighborhoods.

Kanye said:

“Let me talk about Planned Parenthood, okay? The last figure I saw is there were 210,000 deaths due to COVID in America, and everywhere you go, you see someone with a mask on. … With abortion culture, there are 1,000 black children aborted a day, daily. We are in genocide,” Kanye West said.

“So more black children have died since February than people have died of COVID, and everyone wears a mask, so it’s a matter of where are turning a blind eye to?” the Jesus Is King crooner asked. “The media can control, a lot of times it has control [over] what we care about.”

In a different interview Kanye said:

“There’s some harsh facts that deal with the black genocide that is abortion,” he stated in an interview with actor Nick Cannon. “It’s happening every day, and right now God has given me the information, and he ain’t gave me no other information other than this information, and we have this right now, so that means he wants me to say this now In 50 years, there’s been 22 million — over 22,500,000 — black people aborted strategically and on purpose. Planned Parenthood was set up and placed in minority communities to kill black people.”

“Abortion is the number one killer of black lives in the United States,”

That Democrats support genocide against Blacks shouldn't be any surprise. Remember that thousands of Blacks are shot year after year in Democrat run cities like Chicago but Democrats don't even talk about it much less doing anything to end it.

Similarly we know that Blacks do horribly in the public school systems in Democrat cities like Chicago, much worse than whites, yet Democrats refuse to give Black kids the same school choice that rich white kids have.

From their founding to today the policies of the Democrat party have hurt Blacks. Chicago has been run by Democrats for nearly 90 years and yet the situation of poor Blacks hasn't improved at all; in fact it's gotten worse.

The only thing Democrats can point to that supposedly shows that they care is welfare but Daniel Patrick Moynihan, a Democrat, warned that as structured welfare would hurt Blacks. When he was proven right Democrat politicians did nothing to fix the problems showing that they didn't care that their program was hurting Blacks.

We see Joe Biden telling us that any Black who doesn't vote for him isn't really Black and Chelsea Handler saying that 50 cent "can't" vote for Trump because 50 cent is Black. No freedom of thought for Blacks; they have to stay on the Democrat intellectual plantation or else.

Democrats say that it's horrible that too many Blacks are in prison. Yet Joe Biden pushed for the bill that caused that while Trump, not Obama/Biden, fixed that.

There is a racist candidate for President; it's Joe Biden who supports genocide against Black people and has never complained about the fact that Black women abort at 3 times the rate of white women.

Joe Biden can't do math: "Free college" will cost twice what he said it would

On 60 Minutes Joe Biden said the cost of "free" college for everyone for "only" $150B a year. Turns out he admitted later that the real cost would be twice that.

Keep in mind that lots of Americans don't go to even community college which means plumbers, car mechanics etc will be taxed to ensure that rich white folk can get free classes on gender identity.

Joe's going to bankrupt you with higher taxes to pay off the various groups he's trying to bribe to vote for him. 

But Joe's inability to do math is common for leftists who promise us huge benefits for low costs but somehow when they're in charge never manage to deliver.

Joe told us that Obamacare would cut our medical insurance bills, at least I assume he agreed with Obama, yet insurance premiums actually went up because Obamacare bans cheap limited coverage policies and demanded that every insurance policy be a "Cadillac" plan.

Similarly when saying how much transitioning to "green" energy would cost they never mention the cost of millions of Americans having to replace their furnaces, water heaters, and stoves.

Basically Joe's a used car salesmen who will tell any lie to get you to buy his old junker at a premium price.

Twitter admits it's biased so time to end its Section 230 protection

 

The entire purpose of Section 230 was to protect content neutral platforms from lawsuits just like the content neutral phone company can't be sued for what someone says to you on the phone.

That makes sense so long as a platform is content neutral.  Clearly if say the National Review website were to publish a lie about someone they could be sued precisely because they are a publisher not a content neutral platform.

But with Twitter declaring that it sensors voice it doesn't like not just voices calling for criminal actions Twitter is unequivocally saying it's a publisher like National Review not a contend neutral platform like the phone company. 

Publishers are held responsible for what the choose to allow on their sites.  If Twitter didn't choose what showed up on its site it wouldn't be responsible either but Twitter is on record saying that they do choose what is allowed on their site which means that they are responsible for everything on their site.

So if some loon calls you a racist who embezzles from your job you should be able to sue Twitter since Twitter chose to allow that post to show up in public.

The financial implications of Twitter being legally responsible for every tweet would provide strong incentive for Twitter to return to a content neutral approach.

Folks Joe Biden says he's running for the Senate

 While Democrats have been claiming that Trump is mentally incompetent since he was elected because he disagrees with them they are fine with ignoring Joe Biden's serious mental issues.

Hardly a day doesn't go by without Joe making a huge mistake.

Today he said he was running for the Senate:

“We have to come together, that’s why I’m running as a proud Democrat for the Senate,”

Today he also forgot Mitt Romney's name and referred to him as "the Mormon"

How is this guy going to run the country if he's elected?

The answer is he won't. 

Pelosi is putting together a 25th Amendment committee not to get Trump, for once she wasn't lying, but to get rid of Biden if he's elected so we can have President Harris. 

Trump has ended the establishment's forever wars; Joe Biden would bring them back

 Under George Bush 630 there wereAmericans casualties in Afghanistan.

Under Obama/Biden 1758 there were Americans casualties in Afghanistan

Under Trump 63 there were Americans casualties in Afghanistan double that to account for Trump only being in office for 4 years vs 8 years for Biden and we get 126

While it's true that the numbers were way down by the end of Obama's reign Trump hasn't triggered any new conflicts.

Instead of overthrowing the government of Libya and creating a new terrorist haven and turning Syria over to Russia like Biden did Trump has gotten multiple Muslim countries to sign treaties with or normalize relations with Israel, reduced Iranian terrorism, and crushed ISIS without creating a new forever war.

Meanwhile Joe and Democrats are itching to get us into more conflicts overseas.

When Turkey said it was going to create a buffer zone in Syria Democrats demanded that the US stop them essentially calling for a war with Turkey which is a NATO ally of ours.  Trump demurred and it turned out that there was no mass slaughter of Kurds in part because Trump made it clear to Turkey that that would be a red line and the Turks know that unlike Obama when Trump says there's a red line it means there will be consequences for crossing it.

Currently Armenia and Azerbaijan are fighting a war.  Joe Biden has called for us to get more involved but Trump is rightly restricting our role to diplomacy.  What's happening there isn't nice but unlike establishment people Trump realizes that American lives shouldn't be sacrificed for every random conflict on the planet.

What makes Joe's enthusiasm about new wars odd is that he told Obama not to stage the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden and he condemned Trump for killing Iranian terrorist mastermind Soleimani.

Both those men had the blood of Americans on their hands, unlike the Armenians and the Azerbaijanies, but Joe didn't want them killed.

It almost would make one wonder whose side Joe is on.

No Joe the Intel Community hasn't cleared your family of any wrongdoing

 Joe Biden faced with mounting proof of his corrupt practices declared that the Intelligence Community(IC) had cleared him of any wrong doing.  But that's a lie.


While former intelligence officials who helped spy on Trump have done so the actual real IC has said just the opposite.

The DNI said there is no intelligence that Hunter Biden's laptop is a Russian ploy. Given that Hunter's lawyer asked for the laptop back that makes sense.  After all if the laptop wasn't Hunters then that would make his lawyer a thief.

So clearly the first lie Democrats deployed to protect Biden from the truth, that the laptop was a Russian disinformation operation, has failed and now Joe's moving on to a new lie.

And if you read the Senate report that covers all of the corruption in the Biden family you'll see why Joe is desperate to make sure that you never hear about it.

Chelsea Handler shows just how racist Democrats are

Last year  Chelsea Handler, a person of pallor, was bemoaning her white privilege and traveling around the country apologizing for it.

Today she's telling a Black man he has to vote for Biden because he's Black. 

Her ex-boyfriend 50 cent said he's voting for Trump because under Biden's tax plan people like him, rich not Black, will be taxed at 62% in New York City.

He said:

"Yeah, i don’t want to be 20cent. 62% is a very, very,bad idea. i don’t like it !"

Chelsea's response was:


In the world of Democrats Blacks have no right to make up their own mind or vote for what's in their best interest. They had better vote like their white Democrat masters say or else.

Of course Chelsea is just echoing Joe Biden who said that Blacks who don't support him aren't really Black.

Have you ever heard a conservative say that Blacks who don't support conservative candidates aren't Black?

Chelsea and Joe telling Blacks how they "have" to vote is one more sign of just how racist modern Democrats are. Here's a few more:

  • Thousands of Blacks are shot in Democrat run cities including little kids and Democrats don't even talk about it much less do anything to stop it
  • Black kids in Democrat run cities can't get a decent education, in Chicago only 17.4% of Black students scored proficient in reading while >50% of white students did, and Democrats fight any attempt to fix that
  • Blacks abort at 3 times the rate of whites. One could be pro-choice but work to fix that huge racial disparity but Democrats say nothing about it.

When rich white Democrats tell Blacks that they'd better do what they're told it's clear just which party, and which candidate for President is the racist.

Joe Biden fired the Ukraine prosecutor to protect Burisma

 Joe and Democrats in general keep defending his firing of a Ukraine prosecutor either by pretending it didn't happen, or by saying that he fired the prosecutor because the prosecutor was corrupt.

The reason that the firing is such a political hot potato is that the prosecutor was investigating the Burisma company; a company which had paid Joe's son Hunter $3M for no discernible reason since Hunter knew nothing about what Burisma does to make money; Hunter knew nothing of the energy business.

Hunter himself told ABC News on camera that the only reason he got the money was because he is Joe Biden's son. He answered the question of whether he would have gotten the job with Burisma if he wasn't Joe's son by saying:

“I don’t know. I don’t know. Probably not, in retrospect,” Hunter Biden said, before admitting his family’s political prominence played a large role in all of his dealings. “But that’s—you know—I don’t think that there’s a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn’t Biden.”

When the prosecutor was fired the investigation into Burisma went away. 

We now have Hunter's emails which show that one of the things that Burisma expected for they cash was protection.

Essentially the fact that the one and only time that Joe Biden personally intervened to get a corrupt foreign prosecutor fired was the one and only time a foreign prosecutor was investigating a company that had paid the Biden family millions of dollars.

Democrats are desperate to avoid you connecting the dots. There first line of defense is to say that Biden didn't fire the prosecutor.

Well we have video of Joe boasting of how he gave Ukraine 6 hours to fire the prosecutor or he'd deny them $1B in US aid.


The next defense is that everyone wanted that corrupt prosecutor fired so that it was just a coincidence that the one and only foreign official Joe Biden ensured was fired just happened to be the only foreign prosecutor who was investigating the company that paid Hunter Biden $3M for no discernible reason.

Aside from that being way to coincidental it's also obviously not true because the man who replaced the corrupt prosecutor wasn't a lawyer and had spent time in prison for embezzlement and abuse of office.

Oddly Joe didn't pressure Ukraine to prosecute that corrupt prosecutor but then why would he care; the investigation into Burisma was dropped.

Ukraine and many other countries that the US works with are full of corrupt people.  Yet only once did Joe Biden personally intervene to ensure that a corrupt official was fired; and that was when the company that funneled millions into the Biden family was being investigated.

It's clearly ridiculous to think that Biden's one and only foray into cleaning up foreign officials just happened to benefit his son and his son's employer.

Joe Biden wants to shut down the oil and natural gas industry in America

 First Joe lied about not opposing fracking which is why America is now energy independent and why our CO2 emissions have gone down faster than most other 1st world countries. Then he was stupid, or demented enough, to dare Trump to post the video of him, Joe Biden, calling for an end to fracking:


Without fracking we'd have to buy our natural gas from Russia like New York State does since Cuomo refuses to build natural gas pipelines. 

Joe talks about replacing natural gas with electricity but aside from the fact that would be physically impossible given the amount of raw materials needed there's the lesson that even Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom of California has learned; when you phase out natural gas and there's a cloudy day with no wind you have to shut off power to people just like they do in Third World countries.

Even if we ignore those problems if Joe get's his way if your house is heated with natural gas you'll need to buy a new furnace.  If your hot water heater uses natural gas you'll need to buy another water heater. If your stove uses natural gas you'll have to buy a new stove.

Millions of companies will have to spend a fortune changing their furnaces, water heaters, etc and they'll pass that cost on to you.

Effectively by phasing out the natural gas industry not only will you have to pay higher prices you're going to have to spend a fortune to replace everything in your home that depends on natural gas.

Then later in the debate Joe said he would close down the oil industry.  Millions of jobs down the toilet.

You'll may have to buy an expensive electric car but since Joe is a fan of the Green New Deal he probably wants you to be forced to take public transportation everywhere including grocery shopping so maybe you won't be allowed to have a car.

Of course phasing out the oil industry is impossible since there is no way that wind and solar can replace gasoline.

As people have pointed out due to shifting to wind/solar there are rolling blackouts in California. Imagine adding the power required by ever vehicle in the state to the demands on the grid; Californians would be getting power every other Tuesday.

Oh and if you're one of the millions of Americans who work in the oil/gas sector you'd be out of a job. Not  that Joe cares.

Meanwhile Joe is silent on the fact that currently China produces more CO2 than the US and the EU combined each year and is drastically increasing its CO2 emissions by building new coal fired power plants. 

Why is that? Under Trump US CO2 emissions are going down but Biden attacks Trump but China's CO2 emissions are going up and Joe says nothing.  Could it be the tens of millions of dollars that China has paid the Biden family?

That would also explain why Joe blames Trump for the China virus and says nothing about how the Chinese Communist government threatened to jail doctors who were raising the alarm about the virus.

If Joe Biden had been President would an extra 340,000 people have died from COVID19?

 Joe Biden has praised New York's handling of the China virus.

But the truth is that if every other state did as bad as New York did then we'd have 564,160 deaths from the China virus instead of 224k.

While Joe and the #FakeNewsMedia keep saying how well New York under Democrat Governor Cuomo has done the reality is that New York has the second highest per capita death rate of all 50 state, beat out only by Democrat run New Jersey.

In New York, as of 10/22/2020, 172 out of very 100,000 residents has died from what Cuomo calls the "European" virus.

In evil Republican run Florida which is being constantly condemned by the press only 75 out of every 100,000 people have died from the China virus.

Which means your chance of dying from COVID19 are around 2.5 time higher in Democrat run New York than in Republican run Florida.

Since Joe held up New York as an exemplar we can assume that he would have mandated on the whole country the policies, like forcing nursing homes to take patients with the China virus, that worked so well in New York.

But if we apply the death rate that Cuomo produced in New York to the whole country the death total would be higher by 340,000 or roughly a factor of 1.5.

While it's true that there are sorts of reasons that even if someone as incompetent as Cuomo had been in charge of a state which doesn't have a huge urban area, like say South Dakota, he couldn't have killed as many people as he did in New York but the comparison does show that Joe has no basis for claiming that if he'd been in charge things would have been better.

Oh and other than the folks who died in the nursing homes due to Cuomo I don't blame Cuomo for the fact that the Chinese bungled their handling of the virus and caused a pandemic. But Joe is acting as though Trump is god and can snap his fingers and eradicate viruses.

No Pope Francis didn't say that gay relationships are ok

 In a new movie the Pope's position on active homosexuality is grossly misrepresented.

The Vatican has confirmed that in fact the Pope did say:

“What we have to create is a civil union law. That way they are legally covered. I stood up for that.”

But like Pope Francis's comment on divorce and remarriage this comment needs to be understood in context.

In the case of divorce and remarriage the Pope has explained that he was referring to very unusual cases where a woman divorces her husband, remarries, has children with the new "husband", but then decides that what she's doing is wrong and decides that she and her new "husband" must live as brother and sister without marital relations.  However her new "husband" basically threatens her with death or violence if she refuses to have relations with him and she has no way to protect her life and the lives of her children if she doesn't do what he wants.  In that case she may be able to receive Communion because she is effectively being raped; she's not actually freely consenting to the sin.  But that's not an assured thing; a priest has to work with her and see if in fact there is no way for her to leave.

The case of civil unions is similar.  Here's what the Pope posted at the time he endorsed civil unions:

"...in fact there are very close unions between people of the same sex, which do not in themselves imply sexual relations, but a very intense and stable alliance. They know each other thoroughly, they share the same roof for many years, they take care of each other, they sacrifice for each other. Then it may happen that they prefer that in an extreme case or illness they do not consult their relatives, but that person who knows their intentions in depth. And for the same reason they prefer that it be that person who inherits all their assets, etc. This can be contemplated in the law and is called ‘civil union’ [unión civil] or ‘law of civil coexistence’ [ley de convivencia civil], not marriage.” "

The key thing here is that the Pope is saying what the Church has always taught. Two men who are in love can live together so long as they don't engage in sexual acts. 

Of course the problem, as with many of Pope Francis's comments, is that he makes a what appears to be a sweeping statement, "I supported civil unions", without in the same sentence mentioning the details of when he thinks they are ok.

Whether it's because he's an incurable optimist who believes any signifiant fraction of gay couples live together chastely or because he is a bad communicator his words can be misconstrued to mean something he didn't say.

He most certainly wasn't saying that sexually active gay couples, who are rarely monogamous, are living a life conformed to Christ that society should approve of.

No he was saying that in certain rare instances there are heroic gay people who live out Christ's call to chastity who should have the right to have their "partner" have the ability to make decisions for them.

Hence nothing the Pope said is in fact in contradiction with Church teaching.

However his prudential judgement, should the Church support civil unions when only a tiny fraction of them meet his criteria, is incorrect.  It's important for non-Catholics to realize that Catholics think that while we should listen to the Pope on prudential matters his expertise and authority is in moral and theological matters not prudential ones.

For example in this case he has a special authority to say that only gay relationships that are chaste, ie no sex, are acceptable but he has no special authority when talking about whether or not civil unions for gay couples should be legalized.

There is another problematic "quote" from Francis in the documentary which says:

“Homosexuals have a right to be a part of the family. They’re children of God and have a right to a family. Nobody should be thrown out, or be made miserable because of it.”

While the Pope did say those words he didn't say them together or even in that order. Here's the full quote:

“I was asked a question on a flight - after it made me mad, made me mad for how one news outlet transmitted it - about the familial integration of people with homosexual orientation, and I said, homosexual people have a right to be in the family, people with homosexual orientation have a right to be in the family and parents have the right to recognize that son as homosexual, that daughter as homosexual. Nobody should be thrown out of the family, or be made miserable because of it.”

“Another thing is, I said when you see some signs in the children and from there send them to - I should have said a ‘professional,’ what came out was ‘psychiatrist.’ I meant to say a professional because sometimes there are signs in adolescence or pre-adolescence that they don’t know if they are homosexually oriented or if it is that the thymus gland didn’t atrophy in time. Who knows, a thousand things, no? So, a professional. The title of the daily paper: ‘The Pope sends homosexuals to the psychiatrist.’ It’s not true!”

“They asked me the same question another time and I repeated it, ‘They are children of God, they have a right to a family, and such.’ Another thing is - and I explained I was wrong with that word, but I meant to say this: When you notice something strange - ‘Ah, it’s strange.’ - No, it’s not strange. Something that is outside of the usual. That is, not to take a little word to annul the context. There, what I said is that they ‘have a right to a family.’ And that doesn’t mean to approve of homosexual acts, not at all.”

Taken in context it's obvious that when Pope Francis is referring to a family he's not talking about a family of two gays but of the family of the gay person and their parents.  He's saying that parents shouldn't throw gay children out of their family but work with love and compassion to help their afflicted children live a life in conformance to God's will.

Suffering from same sex attraction is not itself sinful and while living the gay lifestyle is so is having any form of sex outside of marriage. Hence parents should no more kick their children who suffer from same sex attraction out of the family than they should a boy who has sex with girls who he isn't married to.  Sin is sin and we're all sinners so that we must love our children even though they sin not toss them out as garbage. But precisely because we love them we must work to get them to abandon their sinful ways for their own sake because all sin hurts us in this life as well as the next.

Note too that the Pope is very clear in his last sentence that he is in no way saying that homosexual acts can be morally acceptable. The deliberately butchered quote is designed to make you think that the Pope is defending the gay lifestyle when in fact he's clearly condemning it because massive promiscuity and any form of sex outside of marriage between one man and one woman hurts us.

Democrats are returning to their roots: Segregation edition

 

Racism is hating people because of their race.  Racists tend to favor segregation where the races are separated.

The whole Democrat push for Critical Race Theory is about defining people by their race not by who they are as a person.  That's a direct repudiation of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. who longed for an America where people are judged based on the content of their character not the color of their skin.

However dividing us like that makes it easier for Democrats to get power; divide and conquer is a very old and very true concept.

Let's just say no to all kinds of racism.  Not just racism directed against Blacks but racism directed against whites and Asians that says that all whites are bad people.

More confirmation of Joe Biden's corruption

 You've never heard of Tony Bobulinski.  He's a navy veteran, a former head technology officer at the Naval Nuclear Power Training Command, and someone whose only donated money to very left wing Democrats.

It turns out that he's also someone who as worked closely with Hunter Biden and who has stated, on the record, that the emails the New York Post has published are authentic.  Further he's also explained that when Hunter talks about "the big guy" or the "chairman" in those emails Hunter is talking about Joe Biden.


So when Hunter's emails say that they have to set 10% aside for the big guy he's saying that Joe Biden will get 10% of the money.  In the specific case that's referring to a contract that Hunter was setting up with a Chinese corporation for $3M/year for "introductions alone".

He's further gone on record as saying that Hunter told him that Joe Biden had signed off on the deals that Hunter was making with China.

Now Bobulinski could be lying but his testimony is more corroboration for the Hunter laptop story than the Steele Dossier every had and the entire #FakeNewsMedia swears that Steele's work of fiction is the gospel truth even today long after Mueller discredited it.

Yet the #FakeNewsMedia refuse to cover this breaking story of how Joe is owned by the Chinese government.

If you want China to own the next President by all means vote for Joe.

Don't ask don't tell: Joe Biden edition

No Joe's not gay.  He's been accused of sexual harassment by 8 women and sexual assault by one woman so it's clear that while he doesn't treat women well it's women he's interested in.

No the don't ask don't tell is referring to media coverage of Joe.

A laptop that Hunter Biden's lawyer said is his contains emails that clearly show that Joe colluded with his son Hunter to accept bribes from various foreign entities including the Chinese Communist government.

The #FakeNewsMedia ignored the story and are now saying that it's good to not ask Joe about this because the story isn't well sourced enough.

Which is truly an amazing joke given that the same folks who are saying that believed every anonymously sourced story about Trump even after it was discredited.  For example there was the anonymously sourced Atlantic story that Trump had dissed American war dead in Europe at a certain meeting.  Even after 10 people who were there, including John Bolton who hates Trump, went on record as saying that Trump did no such thing the #FakeNewsMedia apparently believe the story is true because they never question Joe Biden when he cites it.

Of course the ultimate example of the press's complete credulity about any thing that sounds bad for Trump is the Steele Dossier that supposedly showed that Trump colluded with Russia.

That document was paid for by Hillary Clinton, compiled by a foreign spy, and the contents were provided by someone who was in the pay of at least one Russian oligarch and who is suspected of being a Russian spy. Not only that but many clear factual errors exist in the document.  Yet despite all that, and the Mueller investigation being unable to verify anything in the document, the #FakeNewsMedia act as though it's gospel truth.

If you've ever watched one of the very rare times that Joe Biden actually answers questions from the press you'll note that they never ask him tough questions like they ask Trump. Rather they pitch him softballs and when he wiffs even those they help him give the "right" answer.

And when anything damaging to Joe shows up, like the clear evidence of his taking bribes from China, they simply don't tell you about it.

You have to wonder why Joe needs so much help if his ideas are ones that the American people would really like.

Hunter Biden planned to make money off his access to Joe Biden: China Edition

While the #FakeNewsMedia is going insane over the fact that Trump had/has a bank account in China we now know that Hunter Biden and his associates arranged for several very rich Chinese businessmen with close ties to the Communist regime to meet with Joe Biden in the White House in 2011.

It turns out that two of Hunter's business partners have been convicted of crimes while Hunter has not.  One of those partners, Bevan Cooney, has given Peter Schweizer--a real reporter whose work on the Clinton Foundation was cited by the New York Times-- access to his email account.

These are not the same emails as the New York Post has been reporting on.

For example one on 11/5/2011 there is an email talking about potential new clients that could be gained if the China Entrepreneur Club(CEC) could be given a meeting in the White House.

While the CEC sounds innocuous it is in fact a second foreign ministry for the People's Republic of China and it's members are billionaires, Chinese Communist Party loyalists, and government officials.

The representative of the CEC who was acting as an intermediary asked if in order to set up such a meeting the Americans involved, including presumably Hunter, would have to register as Foreign agents since they'd be effectively working for the Chinese government.

Based on later emails it's clear that the CEC did get their White House meeting six days after the original email that started the ball rolling.  That despite many previous efforts by the CEC that failed.

While the official White House logs didn't show the CEC meeting with Joe Biden it turns out that a CEC document listing the biographies of the members shows that the CEC did meet with Joe Biden. Maggie Cheng--the Secretary General of the CEC-- it says:

Cheng has been actively devoted to promoting the internationalization of Chinese private businesses and populating the spirit of entrepreneurship in China. She initiated the annual International Visits of the China Entrepreneur Club, which have become one of the CEC’s most important projects, with successful business missions to the United States (2011), the UK (2012) and France/Belgium (2013). The delegation was received with the highest respect and greatest hospitality by the host countries, marked by meetings held with international political leaders such as U.S. Vice President Joe Biden...

The emails show that Hunter Biden profited off of his dad meeting with the CEC. 

That alone is bad enough but if what other emails are showing is true, that Joe gets a cut of everything that Hunter earns, that would mean that Joe profited off of being VP.

I'm going all Jack Dorsey on my troll

 Some of you may have noticed an anonymous troll constantly posting nonsense on my posts.

His idea of a cogent comment is that the fact that under a California law Uber and Lyft wouldn't have to provide vacations but would otherwise have to treat their drivers as employees means that my point that the law would drive Uber and Lyft out of business is wrong.

He's admitted that he's ok with RBG pushing her secular views rather than ruling based on what the Constitution says but he "knows" that he can't trust ACB to not push her religious views which he says aren't acceptable.

While he's been amusing, since his comments usually prove my point, I've decided that in the spirit of FB and Twitter censoring conservatives--if you didn't know FB just demonetized the Babylon Bee for a post that had Senator Hirono calling for ACB to be burned at the stake if ACB turned out to be a witch-- I'm just going to deep six his comments.

Too little time to respond individual to the mass lies of the left.

Oh and my doing so is amazingly ironic.  When he first started trolling me, on the Caltech alumni group on FB, he said his purpose wasn't to debate me but to silence me by mocking me.

Right back at you dude!

Facebook demonetized the Babylon Bee for inciting violence through satire

I saw this tweet and assumed it was the Federalist publishing satire:


But it turns out it's true. That's right Facebook is preventing the Babylon Bee from making money because the Bee mocked Democrat Senator Hirono for wanting to burn ACB at the stake.

Here's the Bee's take on the situation:


In the article the Bee stole an old Monty Python joke about how if someone weighs the same as a duck they must be a witch since witches are made of wood and float like ducks.

Here's the quote that upset Facebook:

“In addition to being a Senator, I am also quite wise in the ways of science. Everyone knows witches burn because they are made of wood,” the satirical version of Hirono says. “I think I read that somewhere. Wood floats, and so do ducks– so logically, if Amy Coney Barrett weighs as much as this duck I found in the reflection pool outside, she is a witch and must be burned.”

Clearly no one is inciting violence. 

There are two possible explanations for FB actions:
  • FB was just looking for an excuse to shut up the Bee and latched on to this
  • FB actually believes that Senator Hirono would in fact burn ACB at the stake if she could
Either way it's a really bad look for FB. 

I feel sorry for the folks at FB since it's clear that their positions are so indefensible that the only way that they can get people to agree with them is by keeping those people from ever hearing the other side of any issue.

But the fact that the people at FB are working hard to turn our government over to fascists who believe that the Supreme Court should legislate and that Catholic nuns should be forced to supply birth control means that that sympathy can't stop my pointing out that FB is a fascist supporting propaganda arm of the DNC.


Joe Biden has been using pay for play to help Hunter for decades

 Hunter getting cushy deals from foreign countries is only new in that it involves pay for play with US foreign policy. For decades Joe Biden was "nice" to people who gave his son lots of money.

Right out of college in 1996 MBNA, a credit card company, gave Hunter a job as a senior VP earning >$100K a year and with an undisclosed signing bonus. At the time MBNA was Joe Biden's biggest contributor; giving $214,000. They wanted Joe to change bankruptcy laws so that people couldn't write off credit card debt as easily.  Interestingly a senior executive at MBNA bought Joe Biden's house for $200K above its market value.  

MBNA got its moneys worth because Joe Biden sponsored and got the votes to pass the Bankruptcy Prevention Act.

When asked about Hunter's cushy job in 2008 Joe said that Hunter deserved the job because he graduated from Yale.  Remember back in the 1990s $100K a year was far more than what even most highly skilled college graduates would get.

In 1998 Hunter moved on to a job paying over $100K in Bill Clinton's Commerce Department. It's a matter of public record that Hunter got the job after Joe's close associate William Oldaker talked to Commerce Secretary William Daley, who surprise surprise had worked no Joe's presidential campaign saying that Hunter would be great at Commerce.  Apparently Hunter's lack of knowledge about e-commerce didn't limit his ability to be "executive director of e-commerce policy coordination"

Side note why were our taxes paying someone >$100K a year back in 1998 to not make or define e-commerce policy but to just coordinate it?  Sounds like a job a high school graduate could handle.

In 2001 Hunter moved on and joined Oldaker in a new lobbying shop in DC.  Apparently in DC having a Senators son lobbying folks in government isn't considered problematic. One of the contracts Hunter had was for St. Joseph's University. A person related to the contract said in an interview that Hunter had “a very strong last name that really paid off in terms of our lobbying efforts.”.

Hunter had dinner with a private prison lobbyist who was doing business with a Senate Judiciary subcommittee that Joe Biden was chairing in direct violation of Senate rules.  But since Hunter was a Democrat nothing happens.

In 2003, while still working for Oldaker, Hunter lobbied for Joe's alma mater and other Biden constituents for earmarks, Senators adding money into spending bills earmarked for people they liked or who paid them off.  That meant that Hunter submitted these requests for taxpayer dollars to his dad, Joe's, office.

To read the full story on to the present check out this great Federalist article: Joe Biden's Boosters Financed His Prodigal Son's Entire Career.

What's really interesting is that Hunter Biden admits that this article is true.  Even better Hunter has admitted, on TV, that he wouldn't have gotten the job at corrupt Ukrainian energy company Burisma if he wasn't Joe Biden's son:

"If your last name wasn't Biden, do you think you would've been asked to be on the board of Burisma?"


"I don't know. I don't know. Probably not, in retrospect," Biden, a lawyer and international consultant, answered. "But that's — you know — I don't think that there's a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn't Biden."

So there you have it. Hunter Biden saying that Burisma wouldn't have paid him millions of dollars if his dad wasn't Joe Biden.

No wonder Hunter has gone into hiding now that emails that conclusively show that Joe knew what Hunter was up to and met with at least one Burisma executive have shown up.

And it's also clear why the #FakeNewsMedia who had no trouble trusting that the Steele dossier--paid for by Hillary, complied by a foreigner, and which most of the content was provided by a possible Russian spy--was highly reliable are saying that emails found on a computer which Hunter Biden's lawyer has said is his can't be trusted.
