[BabylonBee] BOULDER,CO - After 24 hours lamenting the scourge of white supremacy in America, new details revealed that an evil mass shooter was Arab. The media was able to retain their narrative, however, when further details emerged that in spite of being Arab, the shooter was morally white.
"The mass shooter was morally white," said one CNN anchor. "This clearly shows that white supremacy is still the enemy here. Whiteness is a flexible thing that can mean whatever soulless political opportunists like us want it to mean, whenever we need it to! Did I say that out loud? Wait-- um, er, I mean... wow, such a tragedy."
The media is confident that even if the white supremacy narrative backfires, they will still be able to exploit an unspeakable human tragedy to roll out their standard gun-control narrative.

[LibertysTorch] Weaponized Empathy is probably the chief cultural problem of our time. Empathy is used to justify all manner of atrocious behaviors on the part of Neo-Marxists. For instance, racism is perfectly justifiable if applied to a white person. You may stereotype and demean someone so long as their skin color is pale enough, and any attempt to deflect this behavior will result in accusations of not having empathy for folks of darker complexion.
Cancel Culture ensures that it is seen as entirely legitimate to use a political hate mob to destroy a person’s business, employability, reputation, and relationships provided, of course, that empathy to the marginalized is given as an excuse. James Bond supposedly had a license to kill. Neo-Marxists have a license to cancel. They throw themselves into the task with joy and gusto.
Some readers may remember Pajama Boy of Obamacare fame. His quote encapsulates this view nicely:

"A Liberal Fuck is not a Democrat, but rather someone who combines political data and theory, extreme leftist views and sarcasm to win any argument while make the opponents feel terrible about themselves. I won every argument but one."
There is a difference between winning and causing the other person to decide the argument isn't worth it. Most people watching such a debate would know who actually won even if the "liberal fuck' doesn't.
One part of Kurt's three-part opinion
[Townhalls] No, not yet, but there are some cracks in the crusty facade developing. Some of the media outlets were toying with the idea of calling this border crisis a "crisis" recently, and many were complaining that the administration is pretty much freezing them out of being able to report on the disaster. And then Project Veritas comes along and scoops them all, getting photos of kids in cages — I mean "Children’s Happy Fun Spaces of Love" — and it’s got to be humiliating that a dude who made his bones punking ACORN while in Superfly drag crushed them. Project Veritas?
There’s some media whining and mumbling about the freeze-out. And there seems to be a growing impatience with Raggedy Psaki and her inability to form an honest sentence. It’s not so much that the liberals are being treated like dirt and lied to. They dig abuse in a weird, creepy way. It’s that everyone sees them donning their figurative gimp costumes and being led around with a leash. They aren’t concerned with being treated badly as much as with being seen to be treated badly by the normals and thereby being laughed at.
Their pride might outweigh their dedication to liberal fascism. Maybe.
But don’t get your hopes too far up. When Stumbles McFingerboy took his multiple headers on that tricky stairway, they rushed to his rickety defense. No, it’s nothing. But Trump! Gosh, it’s just the wind, as if merely getting blown around like the cow in Twister is reassuring to those of us who don’t want an ancient dust pile as president. What were the wind gusts at Andrews, then? Ought to be public information, somewhere?
This is why mockery is so important. Mock them for not having the power they like to think they do, for just taking it when the *dministration (I like that construction!) treats them like garbage in front of us all. You just have to rub salt in their wounded pride.

I believe Trump Jr. looked it up and it was a 'moderate breeze'. Which to me, is something even a toddler with 2 months walking experience can handle without a problem.
[Sovereign Man] On April 26, 1933, the interior minister for the German state of Prussia issued a decree creating a new secret state police, or Geheime Staats Polizei, abbreviated: Gestapo.
The Gestapo was tasked with stamping out all opposition to Germany’s new Chancellor and the party he brought to power one year earlier.
It operated by collecting tips from ordinary citizens, including even school children. And this network of Gestapo informants changed Germans’ behavior almost overnight.
Even a joke about the ruling party could land you in a Gestapo interrogation room. Talking politics around your children became a dangerous gamble.
According to Erik Larson’s book In the Garden of Beasts, 37% of denunciations "arose not from heartfelt political beliefs, but from private conflicts with the trigger often breathtakingly trivial."

we are on the same path. We will see how Amerika does this compared to the Germans. Me thinks it will be done more economically through shaming businesses into firing the right wing and financial institutions refusing services to the average white conservative!

At some point even the Gestapo had to stop cancelling people
That point was May 1945. Until then they had free reign.
Writing's on the wall, mein herren. Either oppose these fascists or submit.
The third option is to separate. We should start that process regardless. Separate banking, commerce, messaging, networking platforms at a minimum.
[Daily Bell] The 4th Amendment of the United States Constitution unequivocally protects against unreasonable search and seizure:
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things"
These concepts of essential human liberty precede even the US Constitution by centuries; this is the foundational stuff of the 1215 Magna Carta.
By both the letter and spirit of the law, the US government would need an individual warrant for each person’s private medical records (i.e., vaccination status) that it attempts to inspect at each time it attempts to do so.

There have been a lot of Constitutional over-reaches in the last couple of decades or so. After all, the Founding Fathers are a bunch of dead white guys. What could they possibly know? Use of the term "Father" is old hat as well. (Is sarc necessary?)

Didn't the SCOTUS 'discover' some 'community safety' exception in the Fourth Amendment a few decades ago that government can use to do pretty much anything it wants relative to warrantless search & seizure?
[Just The News] A solid majority of voters think President Biden's proposed tax hikes will raise taxes on middle-class American workers, according to a new Just the News Daily Poll with Scott Rasmussen.
The Biden administration has signaled that its major proposed tax hike will hit individuals earning $200,000 and households earning $400,000 or more. The hike is expected to pay for major economic initiatives the administration plans to undertake including one to upgrade U.S. infrastructure.
Yet among the U.S. voters who responded in the poll, 62% said they expect that the proposed hikes "will include tax increases on middle income Americans."

I personally expect IRA & such retirement asset accounts to lose tax benefits (even retroactively, like SS benefits are 85% taxable now), perhaps by rolling all retirement assets into some pseudo-Social Security government administered program.
[Advancing Time] It has not been a secret that much would be gained by those in the Kamala Harris camp if she were to replace Biden as President. Some people have even voiced the opinion this has been the game plan all along and Biden has simply been a pawn in the power game played by those pulling the strings. If such a scenario does unfold it will be most interesting to see how it unfolds. Will he fight being removed from office or resign? Would Biden be thrown under the bus or be treated as a sympathetic figure?
Over the past few weeks, we have seen the media putting a positive glow upon Harris and pointing out how she has been busy communicating with foreign heads of state. This may be in an effort to fortify her status. We should remember as a first-term Senator she could muster little support during the primaries and her campaign had been left for dead. In fact, during her Presidential run, Harris came under a great deal of media criticism for things in her past. Still, recent media actions indicate she may be destined to become Washington's next darling.
Media coverage of Biden's stumble while climbing onto Air Force One and his verbal blunders could simply be an omen of what is about to come. In this case, it may be a lead-up to what many people have predicted will happen in the future. It circles around the idea that Joe Biden was far past his prime and has an expiration date stamped somewhere on his body just out of sight.

Gerald Ford was eviscerated by the press for stumbling coming off Air Force One.

She appears to me to be a fortune teller ball. Ask her a question and she will always have an answer. Just as accurate as a gypsy perhaps. I would be very surprised if she doesn't have a psychic contact. In all important matters she will certainly contact as I believe she is in way over her head(and she knows that). I think she will become distrustful of those around her and be very much less agreeable to suggested actions as Biden would be. The genie in the bottle so to speak. Once released could be quite a show of force and not necessarily for the good.

I still think the bureaucracy will keep Biden in office all four years. He is the ultimate "hands off" supervisor for them, which they crave above all else.
President Harris might just have ideas of her own that would interfere with all their autonomy.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
