Suddenly Democrats achieve clarity regarding “what is a woman”!

They have the SCOTUS to thank for this “bolt of lightning” insight

Satire roundup.

On contagious LBTQ mind viruses in the modern age of oppression olympics.

A recent study by Eric Kaufmann confirms the new meaning of LGBT among young Americans. “Whereas in 2008 attitudes and behavior were similar,” he writes, “by 2021 LGBT identification was running at twice the rate of LGBT sexual behavior.” The recent explosion in LGBT identification among Generation Z seems to be driven mainly by young, white, very liberal women who self-identify as lesbian or bisexual but who do not necessarily have female partners.

and notes many of such people so identifying haven’t had sex at all to know what they might or might not prefer in practice.

California’s Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum (ESMC) seeks to integrate the principles of critical race theory into all aspects of school life, especially classroom instruction… No less troubling than ESMC’s obsession with foisting the lens of race on children is the lengths that teachers and administrators will go to in order to conceal their activities from parents. Gaslighting and outright lies are not uncommon…

There’s lots worse in the article too.

If there was a common emotional denominator to all the parents and parent-group leaders I spoke to, it was an overwhelming sense of despair.

Instructed to view their humanity through the distortive lens of “white supremacy,” California’s teen girls are seeking refuge in puberty blockers, testosterone injections, and double mastectomies, while their parents are almost powerless to stop them. These girls are the sacrificial lambs offered up by the high priests of white guilt. The state’s ESMC was obviously not intended to visit disproportionate harm on girls and women…

We all do realize that the Court is historically unpopular for exactly one reason, right? It’s because Trump appointed 3 of the justices, and we must hate anything Trump was involved in.

Jan 6th antics. Can you imagine Trump “grabbing the wheel” from the back seat of some secure presidential sedan and trying to drive himself to the Capitol after his speech?

Cassidy Hutchinson, a little-known former White House aide, described an angry, defiant president that day who was trying to let armed protesters avoid security screenings at a rally that morning to protest his 2020 election defeat and who later grabbed at the steering wheel of the presidential SUV when the Secret Service refused to let him go to the Capitol.

Little known but soon to be on some nice Democrat boards or foundations I’ll bet, especially since most of what she testified to was hearsay anyway - she just said she heard about it, not actually saw it. And of course, apparently that’s not what happened either, but the media doesn’t care.

Wait, why would he want to go to the Capital? Perhaps to ‘take charge’ of the situation and quell the so-called insurrection, like everyone seems to demand he should’ve?

I dont know how this publication slants, but this seemed like a well-written opinion piece. I dont know if it makes him guilty of anything actionable, but it makes a fair argument. Democrats might actually win over a few people if they could stick to stuff like this rather than the salacious headline-making crap.

I still think Trump was merely pandering to the Democrats that day. This is the response they incessently demanded while defending the Federal Courthouse in Portland (ie, ‘how dare you use force to stop them!’), so the next time Federal property came under attack it is the response they received. The fact it was conveniently self-serving only made it easier to stick with. A person in that position should be above acting based on petty grudges, which does fit the message of this article - he didnt necessarily do anything wrong, but (from this perspective) he’s just the wrong type of person for that job.

Unfortunately, the wrong type of person from that perspective is the right type of person from a bunch of other perspectives.

I am wrong on EPA. America wins!!

but

I am right on immigration. A sad day for America:

The Court holds that the Biden administration’s decision to terminate the Migrant Protection Protocol, also known as the Remain in Mexico policy, did not violate federal immigration law, and the October memorandum was a final agency action

Biden’s approval rating is shrouded in mystery

The mystery specifically: How can his approval be this high!!?

Bloomberg: Biden’s Approval Rating Plumbs New Depths

After staying pretty stable from mid-January until early May, President Joe Biden’s approval ratings have declined over the past few weeks, hitting a new low at 39%. Biden spent most of that recent period as the least popular president of the polling era on a comparative basis. He’s now faring somewhat better than Harry Truman did — Biden’s at 39% on day 526 of his presidency, compared to Truman’s 33% — which might offer some reason for optimism, given that Truman wound up winning re-election. But in the short run, it certainly bodes poorly for Democrats, given that Truman’s party was clobbered in November 1946.

As to why Biden is doing so poorly? There are too many potentially relevant variables to be certain of anything. But both historical patterns and the week-to-week fluctuations over the last year suggest some answers. I remain convinced that it’s really just two things. The one that hurt him badly from late last summer through early this year was the continuing spread of the coronavirus, which put everyone in a sour mood that still hasn’t lifted. Again, there’s no way to prove anything, but the rise of the delta wave followed by the overwhelming omicron wave during the winter corresponded closely with Biden sliding from more than 50% approval down to about 42%.

And then there’s inflation. Biden’s recent slide corresponds to the major spike in gas prices beginning on Memorial Day weekend. On the pandemic we’re mostly guessing; there’s no data from a century ago to track the effects of the Spanish Flu on presidential popularity. But there’s plenty of evidence over the years that the economy — and especially inflation and gas prices — has a powerful influence on approval ratings and subsequent elections. In fact, Truman in 1946 was unpopular mainly because of a postwar surge in prices, and his support increased by 1948 largely because that surge had receded. As political scientist Richard Skinner put it, “The current political environment is very pundit-unfriendly because if you honestly want to explain Dem problems the answer is inflation, inflation, inflation. That makes for a boring column!”

One piece of good news for Biden is that gas prices peaked two weeks ago and have since retreated a bit. One can even imagine an optimistic scenario in which inflation has topped out and gas prices continue descending for a while, while the omicron wave also begins to dissipate. If that does happen — and assuming that no other major troubles turn up — it’s plausible that Biden would begin to regain some more support. Don’t listen to those who say that voters have made up their minds permanently about him. Plenty of presidents have recovered from worse than what Biden is now going through, including Truman, Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan. Of course, many partisan Republicans never approved of Clinton, and just as many partisan Democrats never approved of Reagan. But both of those presidents became wildly popular at times, and it’s certainly possible that Biden could do the same.

All that said, this latest dip suggests something pretty important for the midterms. In early May, when Biden’s approval rating was at about 42%, Democrats could still hope that if only he gained a percentage point a month, he would be close to 50% — and might then have a net positive approval rating — by Election Day. Now? That same one-point-a-month improvement wouldn’t even get him to 45% approval. Sure, better is possible, but at this point it would take something more than just a run of relatively normal good news to get him there.

Democrats can still hope that they’ll outperform Biden’s approval in the midterms. Some polling, at this point, looks better for them than presidential approval alone would predict. Perhaps some combination of favorable news and particular candidates will help them out. But that’s not a bet that many political parties want to make.

How on earth can nearly FORTY percent of Americans still approve of Biden’s clown act!!

Speaking of Biden’s approval So far the left media have been able to cover up his corruption but that may end if The Republicans can take the house and grow the backbone to hold hearings on Hunter and Joe.

An excerpt from the article. As They say, read the whole thing.

The president repeatedly has said that he knew “nothing”about his son Hunter’s foreign deals, and yet when he was vice president, he met with Hunter’s foreign business associates, from China, Ukraine, Russia and Mexico, and even chimed in on speakerphone when Hunter was with prospects.

He had dinner with them at Café Milano in Georgetown, played golf with them, invited them to breakfast at the vice presidential residence. He took his son on Air Force Two to countries where Hunter was doing deals.

There are White House logs, photographs and emails to prove it, including on Hunter’s abandoned laptop and in material provided to the FBI by Tony Bobulinski, a former business partner of the president’s wayward son.

And now we hear, in the president’s own words on a voicemail, his relief that a New York Times probe of his son and brother Jim’s links to Chinese energy company CEFC had uncovered very little.

“I thought the article released online, it’s going to be printed tomorrow in the Times, was good. I think you’re clear,” Joe tells his son in the 2018 voicemail discovered in an encrypted iPhone backup on the laptop and published by the Daily Mail.

The New York Times article to which Joe was referring was published on Dec. 12, 2018, part two of an investigation by China hand David Barboza into CEFC and its Chinese military-linked chairman, Ye Jiaming, who had disappeared in China three months after his lieutenant Patrick Ho was arrested at JFK Airport on bribery charges.
