Biden Files to Run Again in 2024 — or Does He?

/in , , , , , , /by

It’s official, maybe: Old Joe Biden has thrown his aviator sunglasses into the ring for the 2024 presidential election. The Independent reported Tuesday that “President Joe Biden has filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission to establish himself as a candidate for re-election in 2024. A ‘Statement of Organization’ submitted to the FEC on Tuesday registered ‘Biden for President’ as the principal campaign committee for candidates Joseph R Biden Jr and Kamala Harris.” As with so very many things coming out of the Biden White House, however, this filing is shrouded in confusion and not nearly as straightforward as the Independent suggests.

Business Insider deputy editor Dave Levinthal said: “This is a change in paperwork — designating a new treasurer — for a presidential campaign committee that already exists. It alone doesn’t indicate anything about whether Biden will or will not run in 2024.” But Patsy Widakuswara, the White House Bureau Chief for VOA News, was definite: “It’s official, President Biden is running again in 2024.” Twitter is roughly evenly divided between those who are saying that Biden has made it official that he is running again in 2024 and those who insist that all he did was change the personnel list in his paperwork. As is so often with the Biden camp, we get botched messaging and mixed signals.

The larger picture, however, is not at all unclear. If Old Joe is at least semi-coherent (i.e., in about the condition he is now) and ambulatory, he will be running again in 2024. Few people seem excited about the prospect of Dumpster Fire II: Old Joe Fails Again, and that’s understandable. The only way the Democrats are going to be able to sell Old Joe again is by saying: “If you keep hitting yourself on the head with a mallet because it feels so good when you stop, just imagine how good it will feel if you stop after eight years instead of just four.”

A whopping 64% of Democrats would prefer someone else, anyone else, please, anyone but Old Joe to be the party’s nominee in 2024, but the party of Jefferson Davis is in a bind: Josef Stalin and Mao Zedong aren’t available, Kamala Harris is a cackling mess, and who else is there? Gavin Newsom, who seems to think “Let Me Ruin America The Way I’ve Ruined California” is a winning slogan? Supermodel Stacey Abrams?

Given the thinness of the Democrat bench, it’s not surprising that Old Joe, who will turn 82 just weeks after election day 2024, thinks he has a shot at reelection. After all, the FBI is solidly in his corner, and they delivered for him once — why can’t they do it again?

Still, with a job approval rating that makes Jimmy Carter look like Franklin Delano Roosevelt, it’s easy to see why Democrat leaders aren’t greeting the prospect of Biden: Still More Malarkey in 2024 with enthusiasm. Even if the FBI does its level best, close elections are the easiest ones to manipulate, and Biden could end up on the short end of a historic blowout in 2024, one that is beyond the reach of even the most resourceful fed to salvage for The Big Guy.

That may be the reason for the ambiguity of today’s announcement, or whatever it is. Biden’s handlers may be treating his sort-of filing to run again in 2024 as a kind of trial balloon, hoping to gauge what kind of reaction it gets and maneuver accordingly. But if anyone was hoping for an outpouring of genuine enthusiasm from anyone beyond Rob Reiner over the prospect of another Biden basement summer campaign, they’re certain to be bitterly disappointed. No one was ever really excited about the prospect of a Biden presidency; he was just in the right place at the right time and took a nomination that the other Democrat heavyweights didn’t want against a president whose reelection prospects looked formidable until the COVID-19 hysteria kicked in.

Biden is, after all, the quintessential Washington insider, selling the same snake oil he has sold for fifty years now, with an ever-lengthening record of lies and failure to show for it. But he has one thing going for him: he appears to be willing to be led by whoever is pulling his strings, as he indicated yet again a few days ago when he said: “I took control. I shouldn’t do that. I’m not allowed to do that.” Other Democrat hopefuls may not be so sanguine about being puppets for the people who are really in charge. It is they who may decide to sign Joe on for another four years.

Border Patrol Busts Hundreds of Adult Migrants Posing as Minors to Dodge Deportation

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

As if the crisis along the southern border were not bad enough, adult illegal immigrants are posing as minors to enter—and stay in—the U.S. since typically those under 18 are welcomed with open arms. The government refers to them as Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) and hundreds of thousands have entered the country in the last few years. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is charged with caring for illegal aliens under the age of 18 and the agency spends millions of dollars annually to house, medically treat, entertain, and school UAC who come mainly from Central America. Undoubtedly, illegal immigrant minors are almost always allowed to remain in the U.S. and quickly disbursed to a government-funded shelter upon arrival at the border.

The special treatment has led to even more criminal behavior by those already breaking the law entering the U.S. illegally. In El Paso alone, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) confirms that more than 655 adult migrants posing as minors have been busted in fiscal year 2022. This week the agency announced that the El Paso Sector has recently seen an unusual amount of activity involving adults posing as minors to dodge deportation. In one of the incidents agents identified 10 adults posting as UAC while in custody. CBP has a limited time to transfer UAC to HHS custody once the illegal border crossers are vetted and there begins the journey to stay in the U.S. Bigger criminal enterprises are behind the imposter plots, according to federal authorities. “Transnational Criminal Organizations exploit migrants convincing them to pose as minors in order to be processed as such” said El Paso Sector Border Patrol Chief Gloria I. Chavez. “Identity fraud is a common tactic used by TCOs to take advantage of migrants who do not know the legal consequences of their actions as they attempt to deceive authorities.”

The frontline Homeland Security agency says three adults posing as minors were also discovered recently using counterfeit documentation at the El Paso Sector Central Processing Center in Texas. The illegal immigrants, a 21-year-old female, 22-year-old female and 22-year-old male, are from Guatemala and were part of a group of 13 apprehended by federal agents in the area. “The three were encountered, along with nine unaccompanied children from Guatemala and one adult,” CBP writes in a statement. “These individuals pose as minors in order to avoid expulsion.” In a separate incident this month three males from Guatemala, ages 18, 25 and 26, intentionally posed as minors to remain in the U.S. Federal agents detected discrepancies between their stories and documentation presented in their failed attempt to pass as minors.

In yet another incident made public this month, CBP officers at El Paso’s Ysleta Station, which is responsible for 16.7 miles of international boundary along the Rio Grande River, discovered a group of what appeared to be eight minors later determined to be from Guatemala crossing the border illegally. Two of the illegal immigrants pretending to be underage turned out to be imposters, according to the feds. One was a 22-year-old male and the other a 19-year-old female. As in the other cases, agents, though overwhelmed with an onslaught of illegal immigration, detected discrepancies during interviews. CBP warns that individuals who attempt to pose as unaccompanied children may face charges under American laws that prohibit false statements to federal agents and conspiracy to defraud the U.S.

The last thing the country’s disastrous immigration system needs is more UAC. American taxpayers already spend a fortune to accommodate them through HHS’s Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), which funds and oversees dozens of state-licensed care facilities to house the young migrants when they arrive in the U.S. In fiscal year 2021 ORR housed an unprecedented 122,731 UAC, according to government figures, and this year’s budget is a whopping $8.76 billion. HHS projects that in 2022 it will accommodate approximately 149,000 and between 500 and 600 daily for the remainder of the fiscal year, which ends in September. Last year the overwhelming majority of illegal immigrant minors in U.S. custody, approximately 72%, were over 14 years of age and 66% were male. Nearly half (47%) of the underage migrants came from Guatemala, 32% from Honduras, 13% from El Salvador and 8% from other countries.

Why California’s Green Power Grid Is Collapsing

/in , , , , /by

We have been warning that subsidizing and mandating the use of green energy and eliminating all fossil fuels is going a wrong and dangerous direction for America.

We have been proven right because of the warm summer of August 2022.

We have argued that using all forms of energy effectively and efficiently provides cheap and reliable power to America’s economy and Americans. This includes the use of nuclear, coal, natural gas, oil, hydroelectric fuels. These sources of cheap and reliable power sources are critical in fueling the American economy, our homes, businesses, farms and our nation.

America is facing a warm summer, which is a naturally occurring cycle. You know: Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring.

A warm summer shouldn’t be a threat to our electrical grid system but it is.

Here’s why. On August 31st, 2022 NPR’s reported,

A long, intense wave of excessive heat is hitting much of the Western United States for the next week.

[ … ]

Across California, temperatures are expected to be more than 10 degrees above normal, warns the organization that manages the flow of much of the state’s electricity.

The California Independent System Operator expects that demand on Labor Day will reach the highest point so far this year, and that it will ask Californians to take energy conservations steps.

“During a Flex Alert, consumers are urged to reduce energy use from 4-9 p.m. when the system is most stressed because demand for electricity remains high and there is less solar energy available,” the organization said. “The top three conservation actions are to set thermostats to 78 degrees or higher, avoid using large appliances and charging electric vehicles, and turn off unnecessary lights.”

Lowering the strain on the grid will help hold off more drastic measures, the organization said, including the possibility of rotating blackouts. [Emphasis added]

Flex Alerts are the result of Environmentalist Policies

Here’s a short video featuring Mark Mills on how much energy California, American and the world will need. Mark P. Mills is a physicist and a Manhattan Institute senior fellow, a faculty fellow at Northwestern University, and partner in Montrose Lane, an energy-tech venture fund.

Currently, as Dr. Mills points out oil, natural gas and coal provide 84% of all the worlds energy.

Watch this May 28th, 2022 video published in NewsVoice.se video What Impact do Wind Turbines have on the Environment and our Health? Aga Wilson speaks to Alexander Pohl, a former investor an insider, and engineer. Aga and Alexander talk about the impact that wind turbines have on nature and our health. Are they really effective and why are they being pushed so aggressively? They get into the United Nations development goals and the upcoming 50+ meeting in Stockholm that has not been noticed by mainstream media.

Alexander predicts the green world order and what that may implicate in the near future.

Finally, in an Aug 12, 2022 article titled Why Solar Power Is Failing Amid Record-Breaking Heat Felicity Bradstock reported,

With heatwaves being reported worldwide, leading to wildfires and other environmental concerns, at least one energy sector is getting attention for its major producing potential – solar power. But with solar panels collecting energy from the sun’s radiation, the world’s overheating may (unexpectedly) be of little benefit to solar power production.

[ … ]

As the world heats up, people may think that more sun will bring more solar energy, even if it has been negative for many other reasons. But soaring temperatures may be hindering solar power production as solar panels work optimally at around 25oC and start becoming less efficient when the heat goes above this. And even if the heat does not hamper solar production, it is also doing little to help it.

[ … ]

Of course, when there’s sun there’s solar power. But because of the way solar panels work, they become slightly less efficient, by around 0.5 percent, for any degree over or under 25oC. This means that peak production periods in much of the world often happen in cooler spring months rather than during the summer.

Read more.

Solar power becomes less efficient as the temperature rises. I a heat wave, as is being experienced today in California this inefficiency had lead to Flex Alerts in California. This is expected but something that most people who go green either weren’t told and don’t know are were told and don’t care.

Enjoy the hot summer and your green solar panels.

Make 1984 Fiction Again

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Well, as of last week, it’s official. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has dissolved (at least for now) its “disinformation board.” Some critics have called this the “Ministry of Truth,” as in George Orwell’s classic novel about a dystopian, totalitarian future, 1984.

The agency was to be engaged in “countering disinformation that threatens the homeland, and providing the public with accurate information in response.”

Jarrett Stepman of the Heritage Foundation wrote in May: “It was bad enough that the Biden administration seemingly took George Orwell’s book ‘1984’ as a guide, rather than as a warning.”

Stepman noted that even some on the left were concerned about this board: “HBO’s ‘Real Time’ host Bill Maher said the Disinformation Governance Board had a ‘creepy name’ and noted that the opaque mission of the agency was ‘even creepier.’” Said Maher: “Yes, they’re right to compare this to Orwell and the ‘Ministry of Truth.’ That’s exactly what it sounds like.”

Over the summer, I re-read 1984 for the fourth time. It’s a harrowing read, reflecting a society in which all moral and spiritual realities have been upended, and it has helped introduce important concepts into the lexicon, such as “Big Brother,” “thoughtcrime,” and “Thought Police.”

How bad were things going to be in the years ahead as described in Orwell’s novel? “If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever.”

In the totalitarian regime of the future where the novel takes place, words are used to hide reality. Thus, the state declares:

WAR IS PEACE

FREEDOM IS SLAVERY

IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH

The government authorities seek to control all aspects of life, even seeking to control thought itself, lest one commit a “thought crime.” As the novel declares: “Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimeters inside your skull.”

One of the key aspects of life under Party Rule in 1984 is that the past was constantly being rewritten in order to conform to the prevailing ideas of the Party (as in the ascendant Communist Party of Orwell’s era).

The novel notes: “Day by day and almost minute by minute the past was brought up to date.”

In the novel, Orwell states: “Thus, history is continuously rewritten. This day-to-day falsification of the past, carried out by the Ministry of Truth, is as necessary to the stability of the regime as the work of repression and espionage carried out by the Ministry of Love [a torture chamber] ….The past is whatever the records and the memories agree upon…the past is whatever the Party chooses to make it.”

If one were to incur the wrath of the state (not a difficult thing to do) one might be voided, becoming “an unperson.” The book describes one such man: “He did not exist; he had never existed.” As the Party slogan declares: “Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.”

In this totalitarian vision, the past had to be re-written to serve the future. This reminds me of the ongoing attempt to rewrite America’s past—to erase God from it, and to exaggerate the shortcomings and failings of those who founded America.

No wonder the leftists in our day continually strive to cut us off from the heroes of our past, like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison—and to convert them into villains. Even Abraham Lincoln is not exempt.

Rabbi Daniel Lapin gave me an interview on America’s Christian roots, for my Providence Forum film series, “The Foundation of American Liberty.”

He said that bad things come when we have “isolated people from their background and from their history.” And what happens in American public education? Says Lapin, “We teach children only everything that is rotten and bad that they can find about Americans’ past, isolating children from everything that is glorious and good and noble about the founding of this country.”

The founders of America said that our rights come from God. They are not granted by the state, but by the Creator. The totalitarians, like Stalin and Big Brother in 1984, act as if the state is god on earth. That’s why Communist countries, based on atheism, impose nightmares on virtually everybody. Political and religious censorship is just the tip of the iceberg.

The idea of a federal board that would decide which ideas should be censored in America is frightening to the conservative and the Christian. Christianity is politically incorrect. It always has been. It always will be.

I saw a T-shirt recently that said, “Make ‘1984’ Fiction Again.” That’s a worthy goal. It’s good to hear of the dissolution of the “disinformation board,” which could have put into reality one aspect of what Orwell had written about. That dissolution is a step in the right direction.

WATCH: Biden Holds Midterm Election Rally in Pennsylvania—And Nobody Came!

/in , , , , , , , , /by

Well, well. Joe Biden is on the midterm campaign trail and he held a rally in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania on Thursday, August 30th, 2022.

The theme of the rally was a “Safer America.”

Interesting in that this comes after the FBI raid on a former president’s home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida and the U.S. Marshals armed raid on organic Amish farmer Amos Miller in Bird-in-Hand, Pennsylvania.

QUESTION: Safer for who, exactly?

BTW, I guess someone forgot to send out invitations to his event because hardly anyone showed up. I guess there aren’t many Biden supporting Democrats in Pennsylvania?

Here’s a Fox News video of the Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania rally:

Notice how few people showed up. I’ve seen bus stops with more people than this. It seems that Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. just doesn’t have the power to draw in the crowds that his predecessor did.

I wonder why? Was it gas prices are so high that people decided that they couldn’t afford to drive to Wilkes-Barre?

Maybe it was the cost to enter the event? Did Joe’s people charge for this event to make up for the massive spending to pay for the salaries of 87,000 new armed IRS agents or maybe the cost estimated to be between $469 billion to $519 billion to pay off student loans over the next ten years? Just saying.

Maybe it was the U.S. Marshals raiding an organic farm owned by Amos Miller who’s Amish in Bird-in-Hand, Pennsylvania? Maybe the Amish are boycotting Uncle Joe?

Maybe it was because Biden fearlessly defended the FBI, that he sent to ransack his political opponent’s home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida?

Or maybe it was because at the rally Biden pledged to take away every Americans right to keep and bear arms stating, “We beat the NRA. We took on them and beat the NRA straight up. They have no idea how intimidating they are to elected officials. We don’t stop here. I am determined to ban assault weapons in this country! Certainly. I’ve done it before. And I will do it again.”

Exactly, Biden clearly understands that an armed citizenry is a direct threat to each and every tyrannical elected official—like Biden.

Maybe its about defunding the police because that what his base, i.e. Black Lives matter wants. But wait Biden stated, “It’s disgusting to see the new attacks on the FBI threatening the lives of law enforcement agencies and their families for simply executing the law and doing their job. I am against defunding the police; I am also opposed to defunding the FBI.”

So Biden doesn’t want to defund his private police force—the FBI. Now I get it.

Since the armed raid on Mar-a-Lago the FBI has been held accountable and is under fire by many American for their actions. It now appears that the FBI is nothing more than the enforcement arm, of and for, the Democrat Party, much like the Nazis Gestapo, East German Staci and Russian KGB.

Wait a minute. I don’t know anyone who has threatened any FBI agent or his family, do you? But we do know that the Florida Seminole County GOP office was vandalized over the weekend with the words “eat s*** Fascists” smeared on the windows.

QUESTION: Was this attack in Seminole County directly because Biden called Republicans “semi-fascists?”

On August 25th, Aljazeera reported, “Biden spoke on the need to save the country from the ‘semi-fascism’ of Donald Trump’s Republicans and prevent those ‘extremist’ Republicans from taking control of Congress in the November 8 vote.”

As Florida Governor Ron DeSantis noted in an email, “It’s no coincidence that this vandalism comes after Joe Biden called conservatives ‘semi-fascists.’”

Rhetoric kills. Just ask the Jews in Nazi Germany and those anti-Stalinists in the former Soviet Union. Using language like this leads inextricably to violence.

BTW, the media reported that 500 people showed up for Biden’s Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania rally. Looking at the above video it appears to be less than 100 people.

We report, you decide.

Communism Kills—100 Million Corpses in 100 Years

/in , , , , , , , /by

Mikhail Gorbachev, the last leader of the Soviet Union, is dead at 91.  He failed to overcome communism’s inherent economic and dictatorial flaws.  Why does it matter?  Because transgender activists, the “trained Marxists” of Black Lives Matter, and others want to bring communism to America.  If you think communism is cute, let’s start with the hundred million corpses it has produced in the last hundred years, and we’ll go from there, OK?

Gorbachev’s programs were called perestroika and glasnost.  They were both big flops.  Perestroika was his attempt to restructure the Soviet economy to rescue it from the lunacy of top-down Soviet central planning.  I have an anticommunism speakers bureau.  One of my speakers spent his professional life for U.S. AID and other trying to fix the ravaged economies of Eastern Bloc countries after the fall of the Soviet Union.  One of the stories he tells about Soviet central planning was the factory that added 10-pound plates to irons so the factory could make the tonnage quota set by central planners in Moscow.  How can you iron a shirt with that?  Pointing out the folly of central planning is important because our current crop of leaders in Washington are hell-bent on forcing us to transition to green energy, no matter what problems it causes.  Just ask Germans and Brits how happy they are with green energy at the moment.  It’s been a disaster for them, and it’s going to get worse this winter.  Oh, and California just passed a law allowing the government to set wages for fast food workers.  Central planning, here we come. Perestroika is the wrong direction for the United States, and everywhere else, for that matter.

Glasnost was Gorbachev’s attempt to reconcile the internal contradictions of the Soviet power structure.  It meant more consultative government and more freedom of expression.

But the communist party lost control after media outlets pushed the boundaries of glasnost and started telling the truth about Soviet communism for the first time.  Gorbachev became head of state in 1988.  The Soviet Union went kaput three years later.  So you see, communism was inevitable until it wasn’t.  The part about freedom of expression is important because every day, now, new stories come to light about tech companies stifling free expression in America, sometimes in coordination with the government, which isn’t supposed to happen.   Facebook just censored my commentary yesterday.   Pravda has spoken.

American socialists dismiss the Soviet disaster completely with a wave of the hand and tell you the Soviet Union didn’t ‘do communism right’.  So much for the Red Terror where Lenin killed his own people by the tens of thousands, the Great Terror where Stalin killed and imprisoned Russians by the millions, and the Holodomor famine where the Soviets took the grain out of Ukraine to finance their own industrialization, starving 7 to 10 million Ukrainians to death in the process.

So who does communism right?  Red China, according to the New York Times’ Thomas Friedman.  So, let’s take a look, shall we?

Mao starved at least 35 million – some say 65 million – Chinese in his engineered famine of the Great Leap Forward.  My Anticommunism Action Team recently held a webinar about what life in China is really like.  The webinar started with a victim of China’s religious persecution and forced labor camps talking about how the Chinese communists nailed people inside their homes during the COVID lockdown in Shanghai earlier this year, where some couldn’t get food and others couldn’t get the medical treatment they needed.  Swell folks, these communists.  The webinar went on to describe life in China without the Rule of Law, what it’s like to live under total surveillance and a social credit system, where freedom of expression is not allowed – no glasnost here, and people are killed on demand for their organs because the state can.  That’s what ‘doing communism right’ means, Thomas Friedman, you ignorant fool.

China’s communist system is producing a younger generation known for ‘lying flat’ – no higher education, no spouse, no children, no career.  They refuse to participate in such an inhumane system any longer.  Chinese communism has also produced 400 million people who have quit the Chinese Communist Party.

Hate to break it to you Leftists, but all these problems are inherent in Marxist theory.  You can’t escape them.  So the more you do communism right, the worse the economy is going to get and the more people are going to die.  What else would you expect from a system that starts out with the dictatorship of the proletariat and, somehow, never manages to move beyond it in the real world?  And you Leftists know it.  You can prattle on about social justice all you want, you just want power – wealth and power for a tiny elite.  Marxist theory is the best excuse for tyranny ever invented, and that’s the horse you want to ride all the way to the bank and to the halls of power.  But I got news for you.  Read your own history.  The revolution always devours its own.  You might think you will be among the last wave of revolutionary leaders standing, but you will either end up like Trotsky with an axe in your head, or like Robespierre with no head at all.  You might want to reconsider.   Your revolutionary co-leaders you call your friends today will be your executioners tomorrow.   Think about that the next time they’re looking at you funny.  Communism kills, and it will end up killing you.

POLK COUNTY, FLORIDA: Citizens Defending Freedom Files Complaint RE: Pornographic/Age Inappropriate Books in Public Schools

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Apparently, No law enforcement agencies in Polk County, Florida have taken any action concerning pornographic/age inappropriate books currently available in Polk County Public School Media Centers. It is difficult for me to explain their seemingly lack of concern about this issue by refusing to even conduct an investigation nor even to openly support an Opt-In option for parents.

We owe our appreciation to Polk County Citizens Defending Freedom (CCDF) and Polk Executive Director Robert Goodman for having the courage and integrity to take this action which 42 Winter Haven 912ers and 48+ County Citizens Defending Freedom members participated in. It seems very reasonable to ask for an OPT-IN policy which will require parents to actually approve access of these books to their children. We are hopeful the State DOE or other agency will weigh in on this issue.

As stated below, Lisa Miller, Sarah Fortney, Sara Beth Wyatt and Kay Fields opposed Superintendent Heid’s initial plan for an Opt-In, Opt-Out policy and convinced him to change it to only an Opt-Out policy which few parents will even know about. In evidence of this, the Aug deadline has already passed with only 42 parents of over 100,000 PCPS students completing the Opt-Out form online. So much for supporting Parent’s Rights.

Lisa Miller expressed concern below about a law suit and that the left would come after the Bible which are both faux reasons in my opinion.

Remember this when voting in General Election in Nov. and vote for Jill Sessions to replace Lisa Miller in the SB run off.

Leader of group targeting Polk school library books asks police agencies to take action

Paul Nutcher The Ledger  09/30/22

The leader of the County Citizens Defending Freedom has tried to get law enforcement, state prosecutors and lawmakers, including the governor’s office, to respond to the group’s complaint that parents should be required to opt-in to let their children checkout books the group says are offensive and harmful to students.

The district has chosen instead to maintain its opt-out policy that allows parents to restrict their students from reading any book at school libraries, but keeps the challenged books in Polk schools.

Robert Goodman followed through with his pledge at the last Polk County School Board meeting to file police reports if the district kept distributing at least 12 of 16 controversial library books the group challenged late last year.

Florida’s book bans: Which titles are being pulled from school media centers?

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office and several police departments in the county have been in contact with Goodman, the leader of the Polk County CCDF.

Goodman filed reports with Lake Alfred, Winter Haven, Haines City and the Mulberry substation of the Sheriff’s Office as well as its main office to inform law enforcement of the board policy. As of Tuesday, he had not visited the Lakeland or Bartow police departments.

When none of the law enforcement agencies took action, he cast a wider net, writing an email to Gov. Ron DeSantis, Attorney General Ashley Moody, State Attorney Brian Haas of the 10th Judicial Circuit based in Bartow, members of the Florida legislature, county commissioners and the Polk School Board.

Goodman said Tuesday he had received a reply from at least one of the state officials but would not say who it was. None of the state officials contacted by The Ledger responded to requests for comment.

The Democrat totalitarians will not cancel the truth. These madmen must be stopped.

Truth Social Barred From Google Play Until They Add Additional ‘Content Moderation’

By: Cassandra Fairbanks, Gateway Pundit, August 30, 2022:

However, according to a report from The Hill, a Google spokesperson said in a statement on Tuesday that the platform lacks the “effective” content moderation needed to meet Google Play’s terms of service.

“On August 19 we notified Truth Social of several violations of standard policies in their current app submission and reiterated that having effective systems for moderating user-generated content is a condition of our terms of service for any app to go live on Google Play,” the spokesperson said.

The report says that Google is specifically “concerned” about “policies prohibiting content with physical threats and incitements to violence.”

The Google spokesperson said that they contacted Truth Social and that they are addressing the issues to meet the big tech giant’s conditions for getting in the store.

Appearing on Real America’s Voice on Friday, Nunes said that they are waiting on the company to approve them.

“When are we going to be available on Android?” Nunes said. “Well, look, that’s up to the Google Play Store. I mean, we’re waiting on them to approve us, and I don’t know what’s taking so long.”

The president launched Truth Social after being barred from nearly every major social media platform following the protest at the Capitol on January 6.

“On August 19 we notified Truth Social of several violations of standard policies in their current app submission and reiterated that having effective systems for moderating user-generated content is a condition of our terms of service for any app to go live on Google Play,” the spokesperson said.

The report says that Google is specifically “concerned” about “policies prohibiting content with physical threats and incitements to violence.”

The platform reportedly has over a half a million daily active users, including Trump.

According to their website, Truth Social “is America’s ‘Big Tent’ social media platform that encourages an open, free, and honest global conversation without discriminating on the basis of political ideology.”

VIDEOS: Listen to What Ashley Biden Put in Her Diary

/in , , , , , , , , /by

“Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers.” — Plautus, Roman playwright 200 B.C.

Ashley Blazer Biden is an American social worker, activist, philanthropist, and fashion designer.

She is the daughter of Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. and Jill Biden.

Ashley Biden served as the executive director of the pro diversity, equity, equality Delaware Center for Justice from 2014 to 2019.

It is important to note that halfway house resident Ashely Biden “left her diary behind” when she checked out of the facility. The next resident of Ashley’s room found the diary “under the bed.”

Therefore, just like Ashley’s brother Hunter Biden left his laptop in an Apple computer repair store Ashley did exactly the same thing!

Abandoning one’s personal property is the fault of that person, in this case Ashley.

Those who found these abandoned items committed no crimes. Turning over Ashley’s diary to another person or selling the diary to any journalist is not a crime.

What is a crime is when those who found these “abandoned items” are persecuted and prosecuted by the media, politicians and federal agencies.

Anyone who reported, stated or wrote that Ashley’s diary was stolen is lying. That’s called deformation and disinformation.

What is a crime is pedophilia no matter who does it. Pedophilia is perverted and must be punished as no one is above the law.

Does the Council on American Islamic Relations Hate White People?

/in , , , , , , , /by

Esmeralda Upton apparently had too much to drink and accosted a group of Indian American women in the parking lot of a restaurant in Plano, Texas.

This was captured on cell phone video, with Upton saying, “I hate Indians. Go back to India. We don’t want you here.” She also pushed the women, slapped their cell phones, and threatened to shoot them.

Police were called, but did not arrest her since they had not witnessed the incident. Upton was driven home by a friend after she refused to take a breath analyzer test. She is now facing charges of assault and making terrorist threats, with possible hate crime enhancements.

Although the Indian women say that they were scared, they were clearly defiant, continued to engage, and knew exactly what they were doing, and were video recording their attacker the entire time.

If you have ever seen someone drunk and blowing it, you know how cringeworthy that is. But unless that person is a celebrity or a public official, it isn’t really news, and is cruel to subject a private person to this kind of publicity.

Nevertheless, TV stations simply can not resist this kind of observational cinema, especially when there is the possibility of hate crime charges pending.

Esmeralda Upton represents no one and nothing but herself. 

However, this newscast tries to imply she is part of a rising tide of violence and hate against Indian-Americans.

But the FBI website says that white people receive the most hate crimes after blacks. Jews are number 3.

CLICK HERE TO VIEW BIAS BY RACE INFOGRAPHIC

I don’t even see a category for Indian-American. And anti-Hindu is near the bottom, at 31st place.

Furthermore, if one looks at what constitutes a hate crime, listed in order there is:

  • Intimidation – 4,381
  • Destruction/Damage/Vandalism of Property – 2,433
  • Simple Assault – 2,197
  • Aggravated Assault – 1,407
  • All Other Larceny – 222

All of this is bad, and should be prevented by law. But it is not evidence of some kind of crisis in society. The sum total of these hate crimes listed on the FBI site, 10,640, is 0.003% of the U.S. population of 330 million.

If the station were responsible, it would have said that hate crimes against Indian-Americans are rare.

Even if there were a rising tide of some sort, Esmeralda Upton is not part of it. She doesn’t belong to any hate group or movement. Unlike some of the groups who trying to make a federal case out of this.

The stations tells us the video is “shocking.” But it is not. It is banal.

What is shocking is that the stations include the Executive Director of the Council on American Islamic Relations Dallas/Fort Worth area, Faizan Syed, on their broadcasts. See here, here, here, here, and here.

Despite this incident having nothing to do with Muslims or Islam, Faizan Syed is calling for Upton to be charged with a hate crime. Reports say the police are investigating the parking lot incident as a hate crime. That means they are considering Faizan Syed’s input.

And he says this incident has impact upon the entire South Asian community. So he has pretensions to being the spokesman for the South Asian community now? He already works for CAIR, which pretends to represent the nation’s Muslim community. Additionally, CAIR purports to represent blacks, Asians, and American-Indians, as well as Muslims. They need to stay in their lane.

OpIndia stated: “CAIR that came in support of the victims made it about the ‘South Asian Community’ which the assault was clearly about being the woman ‘Indian’. The propaganda to shift the paradigm to call it ‘South Asia’ and not ‘Indian sub-continent’ has been active for many years now. The left eco-system and the western mainstream media have been trying to stop using the word ‘Indian’ or ‘Indian sub-continent’ while mentioning the region and using ‘South Asia’ instead.”

This is the same Faizan Syed who is campaigning to free Lady al-Qaeda, Aafia Siddiqui, from prison. He has organized rallies on her behalf in partnership with the Aaafia Foundation, a pro-Taliban group of people who wrote a prayer for Anas Haqqani, a leader in the Haqqani Network, which is part of the Taliban and allies with al Qaeda.

All the available evidence strongly suggests that Syed’s activities inspired Malik Akram to take hostages at a synagogue in Colleyville, Texas last January.

Who is Faizan Syed to point fingers at anyone?

Esmeralda Upton is CAIR’s third victim of the month, and the 23rd of the year.

CAIR attacks individual working-class Americans on TV at a rate greater than twice a month. And it has been going on for over five and a half years now.

CAIR representatives use their astonishing media access to hurt people: school principals, elementary school plays, elected officials, judges, business owners, Facebook groups, even the mentally ill, and children, and they have been doing this for years.

There are over 100 examples of CAIR doing this.

15 examples in 2018

20 examples in 2019

24 examples in 2020

28 examples in 2021

And we are already at 23 for the year with Esmeralda Upton being the latest.

CAIR had ABC affiliate WSB defame a sitting judge to influence a legal decision.

There are several examples of CAIR turning an entire town against one person.

  • CAIR turned the town of Dearborn against Bill Larion for using the word “camels” in a Facebook post. ABC affiliate WXYZ was a willing participant in Larion’s persecution.
  • CAIR turned the town of Toms River, New Jersey against Dan Leonard for mocking and scoffing at Ilhan Omar, Rachida Tlaib, and Sharia law. CAIR did nothing to calm the situation down after Leonard’s daughter received rape threats.
  • CAIR used a rumor on social media to get on TV four times and call for a teacher’s termination while she was under police protection.

This is more than just news. It is a scandal.

Because 99% of the people CAIR attacks on TV are white.

Does CAIR hate white people? It’s not an absurd question. They have given the subject a great deal of thought and discuss it at length on their YouTube channel.

White people are depraved, savage, subhuman devils who should be choked. This was said to the Deputy Executive Director for CAIR National, who rocked with laughter.

Here is the Executive Director of CAIR National saying that white people have privilege that they can do anything and get away with it.

Here is the CAIR-Los Angeles Executive Director reducing America to a caricature of “white nationalism” – https://youtu.be/S0AeItOnV5M?t=1036

CAIR uses very expensive media databases to hunt for white people to attack.

CAIR is the hate criminal. And a national security risk.

There is your “shocking” news story.

CAIR and local TV newscasters are working together to persecute Americans with a clear pattern of bias.

The media won’t report this, but it doesn’t matter. The public is discovering it on their own. After all, they are the targets of CAIR’s hate campaign. If this isn’t stopped, CAIR will succeed in inspiring some nut case to physically attack one of their targets. In fact, it already happened in Colleyville. The only difference is that next time, an innocent person could get killed.

Finally, it is very disheartening to see that TV station KTVT is in Dallas/Ft Worth.

Colleyville is right there!

Colleyville “is situated in the Mid-Cities suburban region between Dallas and Fort Worth.” It is just 21 minutes away from Fort Worth. But, KTVT, and all the rest of the newscasters covering this story are already a million miles away from what happened there last January.

What happened in Colleyville was a hate crime. The Plano incident is a tawdry news story with a gratuitous inclusion of CAIR.

  1. They let CAIR get away with Colleyville.
  2. Then they bring Syed on for a story he has nothing to do with.
  3. Just so he can try to defame somebody.

Yet Another Muslim Journalist Working for The New York Times Praises Hitler

/in , , , , , , , , /by

What if Honest Reporting hadn’t revealed anything about Soliman Hijjy? Would he still be working for the Times? Sure. They’re only concerned about this kind of behavior when they get caught.

Unearthed: Another Hitler-Praising New York Times Gaza Journalist

by Ira Stoll, Algemeiner, August 28, 2022:

After the New York Times terminated its relationship with a Gaza-based journalist who said he favored killing and burning Jews “like Hitler did,” the newspaper is looking into additional reported instances of its journalists praising Hitler on social media.

The same watchdog group, HonestReporting, that unearthed the post by Fady Hanona also dug up a 2012 Facebook post by a Times videographer, Soliman Hijjy, who HonestReporting said wrote “How great are you, Hitler.” Hijjy also shared variants of the post again in 2018 and 2020, HonestReporting said.

HonestReporting also expressed concern about social media posts made between 2011 and 2018 by Hosam Salem, a freelance photographer whose work has appeared in the Times.

The Times told HonestReporting it reviewed the concerns and took “appropriate action.”…

And, at least in Hijjy’s case, a video he created for the Times, “Gaza’s Deadly Night: How Israeli Airstrikes Killed 44 People,” was denounced when it came out as a “shocking” “hatchet job.” So the issue isn’t just the social media posts, it’s the nexus between the social media posts and the hate-filled agenda that filters through into the New York Times journalism….

CONNECTICUT: School Hiring Discrimination Ensures ‘Subtle’ Child Indoctrination—The Secret Curriculum

/in , , , , , , , , /by

*CLICK HERE TO TWEET THE VIDEO*

Project Veritas released the first video in its newly launched Education Series today exposing a senior official at a prominent public school.

Jeremy Boland, who serves as Cos Cob Elementary School’s Assistant Principal, was recorded bragging about how he oversees the hiring of teachers who will disseminate “progressive” political ideas in the classrooms.

Here are some of the highlights from today’s video:

  • Jeremy Boland, Assistant Principal of Cos Cob Elementary School: “Believe it or not, the open-minded, more progressive teachers are actually more savvy about delivering a Democratic message without really ever having to mention politics.”
  • Boland: “So, it’s subtle. They [teachers I hire] will never say, ‘Oh, this is [a] liberal or a Democratic way of doing this.’ They’ll just make that the norm — and this is how we handle things, it’s subtle…That’s how you get away with it.”
  • Boland: “The conservative [teacher], who is stuck in her ways. I’ll never be able to fire her, and I’ll never be able to change her. So, I make an impact with the next teacher I hire.”
  • Boland: “Protestants in this area [of Connecticut] are probably the most liberal. But if they’re Catholic — conservative…You don’t hire them.”
  • Boland: “If someone is raised hardcore Catholic, it’s like, they’re brainwashed — you can never change their mindset.”
  • Boland: “For one position, I think we had 30 applicants. So out of all those applicants, I don’t think I interviewed anybody over the [age] of 30…the older you get, the more set in your ways — the more conservative you get.”
  • Connecticut Law, Section 46A-60B1, specifically bars discriminatory employment practices. A violation occurs if anyone refuses to hire or employ people “because of the individual’s race, color, religious creed, age, sex, gender identity or expression.”

You can watch the full video HERE.

The question remains: how many students have been adversely affected by Boland’s hiring practices?

Further, how many schools across the country have administrators just like Boland?
