A virus is spreading throughout the world. It affects the comprehension and common sense portion of the brain and leaves its victims dumbed-down and easily herded by the propaganda masters and their political cult. Carrie’s Take strives to provide an antidote to the mind-control and hopefully will stir up memories of long ago when our society demanded truth & honesty in journalism and expected it to be the guardian of facts, rather than PR mouth pieces for self-serving politicians and their personal agendas. ~Carrie K. Hutchens
I have often wondered if I am living in a reverse universe. A universe where evil wins and good goes down in flames at almost every turn. A universe where lies are the norm and the truth is challenged and then crushed by the gaslighters, who deem themselves the righteous ones.
It is something I wonder about.
Is there more than one dimension? Am I in another one? Am I happy? Did my life turn out as I had once wished for? Did I travel to all those places I once longed to travel to?
Oh yes, I do wonder.
I’ve seen some undeserving people end up living charmed lives with all their dreams come true, while others – ones who were/are deserving – ended up with one challenge after another and many tears shed.
I wonder why that is.
It is something to think about sometimes, though thinking about it will change nothing. Never has. No reason to believe it ever will.
Wonder is what I do.
If there is another universe and there is a me living there, I hope I am a good person doing good things.
I wonder if I am laughing in delight as I dance to life’s good things?
Maybe someday I will know if there is another universe where good wins and evil loses at every turn. A universe where truth is ultimate, and the righteous truly are.
Until such time as you invite a dangerous murderer, rapist and torturer to live next door and interact with your family – I don’t want to hear your so-called moral outrage. Only then will I take your virtue signaling as anything more than “performance” safely carried out from afar.
It is suggested that some of you screaming to protect criminals from ICE are paid protesters? Outrage for a buck? Do you get paid well for your performance, or is the money just a bonus, and the real motive is to have a chance to harm and destroy?
It’s something I wonder as I watch your out-of-control anger and behavior.
Then we have the mayors and governors that get out there in front of the cameras and act like they are the crusaders for innocent victims, when the opposite is true. Yes, indeed, when they attempt to stop ICE from locating and arresting murderers, rapists, and torturers, they are creating the opportunity for more “innocent” victims. You know… “innocent” people who will then be brutally killed, raped, and/or tortured because the perps were protected by those in control and by the crowds they allow to take over the streets.
Oh, and let’s not forget the celebrities and other rich people, who dare to lecture everyone else, while having bodyguards and security to keep their world safe from the very dangerous people they are suggesting the rest of us should welcome into ours. So brave of you.
If you haven’t noticed, I don’t have much use for virtue signalers, protesters, or government officials seeking to protect the guilty. You’re so willing to sacrifice others and demand that the rest of us willingly accept the dangers you expose us to.
None of you have, nor deserve, my respect and, until such time as you invite the dangerous criminals you so readily defend to live next door to you and interact with your family – I don’t want to hear your virtual signaling. It isn’t worth the breath it blows out on, and definitely a waste of my time and yours.
Gov. Walz signals openness to dialogue while Frey refuses to cooperate with federal agents
By David Marcus
After protest, agitation and chaos rocked Minneapolis over the weekend, PresidentDonald Trumphas offered leaders there an olive branch, and placed the political ball squarely in their court.
Trump’s offer to Mayor Jacob Frey and Gov.Tim Walzbegan with a very real concession, by replacing Secretary of Homeland SecurityKristi Noemand gung-ho Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino with the arguably more moderate Border Czar Tom Homan on the ground. The move angered many border hawks in his own party. (Continue Reading)
The FBI under theBiden administrationspent two years investigating a Catholic school teacher — and even put her on a terror watchlist — based on an unverified tip that connected her to the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol in 2021, according to a new congressional report.
Christine Crowder wasn’t at the U.S. Capitol when a mob overran the building to prevent the certification of the 2020 election, according to findings releasedby the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. She was, however, in D.C. for a rally for President Donald Trump earlier that day, and the FBI spent 23 months tracking her for it, the report said.
The committee’s chairman, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., called the move an overreach of federal power based on insufficient evidence. (continue reading)

The Democrats and anti-Trump forces seem to be so blinded by their hatred of the president that they have lost their ability to think coherently. What else can one think when reviewing what has been transpiring? It is so obvious. Well, obvious to those of us who are not blinded by either hatred or the wish to destroy Donald Trump simply because he is Trump and perhaps a Republican.
Hillary Clinton was quite excited when she believed a Trump Tower server was communicating with Russia & she let the world know. The question is – how did she know this was being checked into?
There was a transcript of Flynn’s discussion with the Russian ambassador. The question is – how did we find out?
For all the accusations some Democrats have been & continue making, an important factor has gone unnoticed in their little thought processors of incoherence. If there wasn’t any surveillance, how did surveillance gather the above information? (i.e. If one can only get to town by driving and they are in town – it’s a pretty sure bet they drove to town.)
Comey testified that there was no wiretap on Trump. Why didn’t he add that while there was technically no “wiretap” – Trump and/or his team had been included in “incidental collection”, unmasked and the information shared among many? He knew about it, didn’t he? He knew it was shared, didn’t he? So, why did he answer in such a way as to make it look as though Trump was lying or simply ignorant?
Attorney General Sessions was asked a long, rambling question by Sen. Franken. The short of the story – or question – was if Sessions had any contact with the Russians with regard to the campaign. He said he didn’t. However, thereafter, the Democrats accused him of lying because he had two meetings with the Russian ambassador, unrelated to the campaign, that he had failed to mention. Didn’t seem to matter that many in Congress have met with this very same ambassador. Didn’t seem to matter that some even met with Putin. Didn’t seem to matter that the question was in relationship to the campaign – Sessions should have, by their opinion, thought to say, “No, but I did meet with the ambassador in the course of my duties as senator.”
Then Senator Sessions was being questioned about the campaign – not his duties and meetings as a senator. He answered the question asked. His meetings with the ambassador were irrelevant to the issues at hand because they were not related to the campaign. Comey, on the other hand, was being questioned about Trump and/or his team being under surveillance and he knew it. He took advantage of “technical wordage”. He took advantage of Trump using the term “wiretap”, though knowing exactly what was meant and that it was relevant and specific to the question presented. In short, he intentionally misled the committee and the public. This should be of grave concern to each and every one of us. It is to me.
Additionally, why would it take so long to establish there was collusion (or not) between the Trump campaign & Russia, but so quickly be able to establish there was no surveillance on Trump & team? Why haven’t they been able to identify the person responsible for leaking material, but able to say no person was involved in Trump surveillance? Seems the only fast investigations they are able to perform is if it is an attempt to discredit the president and his team. Amazing!
After Senator Nunes gave the press conference and notified the White House of what he had learned, Schiff was upset because Nunes hadn’t shared the info with the committee first. And, now that the White House has been notified, Schiff feels there cannot be a fair hearing? Why? How does Nunes sharing the information affect the hearings? After all, the Democrats have been insisting all along that Trump, as president, could pick up the phone and obtain all this information first hand. What does it matter then that Nunes provided Trump what Trump could freely get on his own?
My personal opinion is that Trump didn’t wish to pick up the phone and ask for the information because, if he did, the Democrats and media would claim it was tainted, manipulated and completely false. Instead, I believe he simply waited for the truth to come out, as he knew it would once people started paying attention to the evidence that was readily available all along.
By whatever term is utilized – Trump and his team were obviously under surveillance. Information was gathered by some means and shared. It really doesn’t matter if it was a physical wiretap such as they had in the 1960’s or information grabbed from the sky. Somebody captured it. Somebody gathered it. Somebody shared it. Somebody leaked it. The latter of which, without question, is illegal.
Schiff & Pals try to make it all important that Trump used the word “wiretap”. When Trump clarifies he was referring to surveillance – they try to say he is walking back his allegation because he has no proof.
Schiff is upset because Senator Nunes was provided info, which he discussed at a Press Conference and then shared with the White House. If it is so important for Nunes to have shared with the committee first, why hasn’t Schiff provided the committee with the absolute proof he claims to have? And if he has absolute proof, why are they wasting time and money on an unnecessary hearing to establish what is in his possession? Might it be because he doesn’t have the proof he claims?
The Democrats seem to want one set of rules for themselves and a set of rules for people that aren’t them. And in recent years, it seems that is exactly how things have played out. Perhaps they have gotten too used to successfully bullying and are unable to comprehend that those days are over. They are making fools of themselves and doing it for all of us to see.
But I digress. (It’s easy to do, when trying to make sense out of the Democrat & media nonsense.)
The Democrats know that Jeff Sessions was asked if there was any Russian involvement in the campaign and that he answered truthfully. They know but it didn’t stop them from trying to create an illusion of dishonesty to bring him down.
Comey intentionally provided a dishonest answer to the committee and to the public. There is no way the Democrats aren’t aware of this fact, yet they are using that dishonest answer to claim Trump is the one being dishonest.
The out-of-control Democrats and media shower us every day with their little saga of incoherence. They speculate and deem it facts. They twist, spin and manipulate information and call it evidence. They tell us there was no surveillance, but surveillance may have picked up Trump & Associates in “incidental collection”. There were leaks of gathered information, but there was no surveillance, so I suppose we are to assume it poofed into someone’s possession as they happened to walk by the poof-receipt desk.
One day of fair reporting only and honest investigation would be a welcomed respite from the saga of incoherence and lock-step mindset of the out-of-control libs, their media buds & the brainwashed that blindly follow them. It might also be the shock moment that opens minds and lets the truth and rational thought back in. The day some Democrats fear most – a day President Trump keeps still another promise and the swamp gets a little less occupied!

Bill Maher says he never left the Democratic Party because he was never there to begin with.
“I never was a Democrat to begin with,” Maher said during his “Club Random” podcast released on Saturday with his guest, actor Esai Morales. “I always like caucus with the Democrats and I generally vote for them,” the comedian added. (Click to continue reading)
A black robe doesn’t make one immune from the rule of law
Kash Patel and Judge Dugan (Kayla Bartkowski/Getty Images, left, Mike De Sisti / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images, right.)
By Jonathan Turley
“This is not normal.”
Those words from Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., are undeniably true after the arrest of Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan. However, the reason it is not normal is far more debatable. Dugan is accused of becoming a lawbreaker in seeking to obstruct an effort to arrest a man wanted by federal authorities. If true, that is manifestly not “normal.”
As soon as the news of the arrest was reported, Democrats declared another constitutional crisis. Klobuchar added that the arrest “is a drastic move threatening the rule of law” and a “grave step and undermines our system of checks and balances.”
That is a curious claim unless Klobuchar believes that the officers are lying. If not, Klobuchar is suggesting that a judge should not be held accountable for actively shielding a wanted person and facilitating their evasion of law enforcement.(Continue Reading)
“Real Time” host Bill Maher revealed details Friday of his meeting last week with PresidentDonald Trumpat the White House, saying Trump was more gracious and good-humored than he expected.
“You can hate me for it, but I’m not a liar. Trump was gracious and measured,”Maher said. “And why isn’t that in other settings- I don’t know, and I can’t answer, and it’s not my place to answer. I’m just telling you what I saw, and I wasn’t high.” (Click to continue reading)
William Braddock allegedly threatened to send a ‘Russian-Ukrainian hit squad’ to kill his primary opponent
By Danielle Wallace
The Justice Department charged a former primary opponent ofRep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., with threatening to send a “Russian-Ukrainian hit squad” to kill his political rival.
William Robert Braddock III, 41, of St. Petersburg, Florida, was charged with threatening to kill his primary opponent in the 2021 election for the 13th Congressional District of Florida, and a private citizen and acquaintance of his opponent, the Justice Department announced Friday. The indictment, unsealed in the Middle District of Florida on Thursday, describes the targeted individuals as only “Victim 1” and “Victim 2.”
On June 8, 2021, prosecutors say Braddock allegedly made several threats to injure and kill his primary opponent during a phone call with the second victim, specifically stating that he would “call up my Russian-Ukrainian hit squad” to make the rival candidate disappear. The DOJ said Braddock left the United States after making the alleged threats and was later found to be residing in the Philippines. (Click to continue reading)
New York Judge Juan Merchan has prohibited Trump from attending presidential immunity arguments at the US Supreme Court
By Brooke Singman
EXCLUSIVE: Former President Trump said New York Judge Juan Merchan “thinks he is above the Supreme Court,” after “prohibiting” him from attending arguments Thursday on presidential immunity, telling Fox News Digital it is “the most important case in many years” before the high court.
The former president and presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee spoke exclusively to Fox News Digital on Wednesday after spending the last two days in a Manhattan courtroom foropening argumentsand witness testimony in his unprecedented criminal trial.
Trump had requested to attend arguments at the Supreme Court when it holds oral arguments about the former president’s immunity on Thursday, but Judge Merchan, who is presiding over the trial, rejected that request. (Continue Reading)
The Orthodox rabbi at Columbia University and Barnard College sent a message recommending Jewish students leave campus and go home, as anti-Israel agitators have continued an “encampment” on campus and participants were caught on camera espousing full-on support for terrorism and supporting violence towards Jewish students.
In a WhatsApp message sent to hundreds before the start of Passover, Rabbi Elie Buechler, director of OU-LJIC at Columbia/Barnard, told students to leave “as soon as possible” until the situation improves, noting that “what we are witnessing in and around campus is terrible and tragic.”
“The events of the last few days, especially last night, have made it clear that Columbia University’s Public Safety and the NYPD cannot guarantee Jewish students’ safety in the face of extreme antisemitism and anarchy,” Buechler wrote. “It deeply pains me to say that I would strongly recommend you return home as soon as possible and remain home until the reality in and around campus has dramatically improved.” (Continue reading)
Would you dare say that all Blacks should be wiped out? If not, why not?
Would you dare say that all Muslims should be wiped out? If not, why not?
Would you dare say that all Mexicans and others of Spanish speaking countries should be wiped out? If not, why not?
Then why do you think it is okay to call for all Jews to be wiped out?
Explain.
Give justification.
You can’t. You honestly can’t.
Hamas is not a race. It’s a group of people just as the KKK is not a race. And, it looks to me as though if so-called pro-Palestinians were actually for the Palestinians – they would be against Hamas, a group that brings them harm.
Hamas attacked and brutally killed babies and children, not to mention all the other horrendous acts they are reportedly responsible for. They brought destruction and death in Gaza. Yet, some blame Jews and Israel? Get real. Use your brains and stop falling for the propaganda play book material of terrorist and gaslighters.
If…and let’s say “if” … Israel had mistreated anyone in Gaza and Hamas fought back against the troops – that might be one thing. Going after civilians, especially babies and children, has absolutely no justification.
So, tell me again, just how you can support a GROUP that attacks, tortures, rapes and kills, such as Hamas is reported to have done?
Should Hamas decide you and yours should be wiped out because you aren’t Palestinians or didn’t support them enough or for some other reason – would you be okay with that? Would it be okay? If not, why not? You’re supporting them doing it to others. Why wouldn’t it be just as okay for them to do it to you?
People need to take back their brains and learn to think rationally again.
What is right for one is right for all. What is wrong for one is wrong for all.
In short, it would OBVIOUSLY be wrong to wipe out all Blacks, Muslims, Mexicans etc. It is just as wrong to wipe out Israel and all Jews. If you can’t comprehend that little bit of reality, YOU PEOPLE, need to get you some de-indoctrination before “Animal Farm” is a story about you and yours.
Think about it. Think about it with your own brains – not the one filled with the wrongful and hateful propaganda. You might be surprised what conclusions you come to. You might even, as already suggested, avoid being represented in the “Animal Farm” scenario. It’s up to you.
As the carnage in the Middle East persists, an America’s New Majority Project poll recently found that more than 75 percent of Americans are closely following the news about the Israel-Hamas war in the Middle East.
While a majority of voters agree that Israel must do what is necessary to destroy Hamas, and that Hamas is responsible for Palestinian civilian casualties, the outlandish defense of Hamas’s atrocities across the United States– particularly on university campuses – raises great concern.
American universities ought to be centers where ideas, debates, and opinions are freely exchanged, but many, instead, have fosteredhateful, antisemitic ideologyamong the student population. A recent Harvard CAPS/Harris poll found that 48 percent of voters between 18-24 support Hamas in the current conflict. (Continue Reading)
Donald J. Trump deserves to be indicted. Just ask people like Stephen King, Rob Reiner, Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell, Nancy Pelosi, the gaslighting crew and indoctrinated puppets. On second thought, you won’t have to ask them. They’re busy trying to draw you into what appears to be their cult of, “Let’s take down Trump By Any Means Necessary.”
People may not like Trump for a variety of reasons and tell others why. That’s their right.
People may not want Trump to be president again and argue their position. That’s their right, too.
What is NOT anyone’s right is to lie about the former president, whether by outright lie, half-truths, word/phrase meaning changes, or things taken out-of-context.
What is NOT anyone’s right is to seek indictments by the above means and/or creative application of the law.
Some are laughing and carrying on about what appears to be political indictments because it is Trump. Would they be laughing and carrying on if it were they or one of their family members who had gotten on the wrong side of whoever is in power only to be the recipient of all done to Trump being done unto them?
It’s dangerous to think what is transpiring is okay “simply” because it is Trump. Think. Step back and think. Reality is… if it can happen to “one” person, it can happen to “any” person. No one is safe no matter how much one believes they or theirs are. That’s a simple truth. Grasp it.
Obviously, there was election interference in the 2020 Election. Yes, obviously. Yet, you wouldn’t know it if you listen to the liberal media and others that hate Trump. They seem to conveniently ignore anything and everything that goes against their gaslighting narrative that portrays Trump as the perpetual bad guy.
I don’t know how many times I cursed the media as I listened to them claim Trump was lying about something that I knew for an absolute fact he wasn’t lying about because I saw and heard whatever personally. How dare they call me a liar. How dare they tell the public that I was a liar or a fool if I dare defend the truth because that is what they were doing.
How many times has the media been busy gaslighting and falsely labeling when creating or defending the chosen narrative of the day, especially when it is against Trump and anyone who dare defend him because they were defending the truth – not just the man?
It – what is happening and my writing about it – is redundant.
What is happening to Trump keeps happening to Trump. Over and over and over, attempts are made to lie about the man or twist his words or actions. It’s beyond tiring. It’s beyond wrong.
I’m tired of hearing people change the meaning of words and phrases and then applying their change as if it is the absolute meaning and what someone meant and intended to mean if they use one of them.
I have a good example.
Trump once said something to the effect that Megyn Kelly had blood in her eyes. Next thing one knew, the mob of Trump haters was claiming he was talking about menstruating, etc, etc etc.
Unbelievable. That’s not what the phrase means. No relationship at all.
I, for one, know that saying. Lots of people know what it means. How many spoke up? How many shouted out the truth as loudly as the liars (or misinformed) were shouting the lie?
Few.
Why? Because it was only Trump?
People… important people in important positions… lied about Trump and Russia. It was a lie, yet some continue repeating it.
People lied about Trump mocking the disability of a reporter. He didn’t, yet the lie continues by some.
Trump was told the numbers at his inauguration were larger than Obama’s and he repeated it. He, rather than the people that told him, was called a liar. And that is just a tiny fraction of what transpired that is ignored.
Even Fox News failed to assure that the whole truth was told.
Chris Wallace showed a picture of the alleged crowd. It was apparently early in the day before everyone arrived that was coming. Another employee did state at least once that the picture was of early morning and that was it. Fox News, to my knowledge, never made Wallace correct the misrepresentation, much less apologize. His lie was allowed to stand.
Two things.
I don’t remember the channel, but one did announce at least once that the Port Authority, I believe it was, reported that Trump’s crowd was bigger than Obama’s. I remember that because I commented to someone about it.
I have searched and searched for a video of that day, but of all things one might find – guess what I couldn’t find. Something I know happened (was said), because I heard it myself, is either hidden or permanently missing.
(I didn’t know it would become so important to note the channel and reporters, or I would have readily documented it all as it happened.)
CNN, I believe it was, had a live interaction program on their site that day and I spent a great deal of time using it, while the television was also on broadcasting the event. That’s one of the reasons I knew for a fact that Wallace was giving out inaccurate information about the crowd. But as I said, I didn’t see even Fox News stand up and say, “Whoa, that’s not right.”
Of course, this only happened to Trump, so some seem to think it is perfectly okay.
I remember people, including one of Nancy Pelosi’s daughters, trying to find a way to stop Trump from being sworn in. Where are their indictments?
I remember people pounding on the doors of the Supreme Court. Where is the investigation of them and the indictments?
I could go on about things I saw and heard personally that were twisted, denied, or re-created into a narrative of lies, but who cares? It only happened to Trump. That’s right. It only happened to Trump so it’s okay. It doesn’t count as wrong. Right?
I don’t think so.
It doesn’t matter if one takes down Trump today because there is always tomorrow. There is always a day of truth that will arrive, even if not as fast as one would like. A day when the gaslighters will be outed for the liars they are. A day when the indoctrinated will realize they were wrongfully programmed or merely move on to the next mission assigned to them by their handlers. A day when the gaslighting media will either become honest or be seen as the fiction-producing programmers they are.
Yes, there will be a day when the truth steps up and refuses to be denied any longer by the masses. Until then, we are exposed to what appears to be an overwhelming crusade to take down Trump by any means necessary – even by intentional and unintentional untruths.
Some say Trump deserves to be indicted. Perhaps, instead, it is their motive, claims and reasoning that should be indicted? After all, we need to ask if we are seeing a guilty man being held accountable or dirty politics gone wild? It is essential that we find and accept the truthful answer to that question and many more. Our Constitutional Republic, well-being, and freedoms depend upon it.
Simply put, as Adrian Monk would say, “I may be wrong, but I don’t think so.”

You seem to think that “because you said” there was no widespread election fraud that would alter the outcome of the election that everyone, especially President Trump, should take your “opinion” as gospel. Well, I didn’t and I don’t.
You, Sir, apparently were aware of election interference and did nothing, right? What do you call election interference, if not a fraud upon the American people? Votes were cast based on that fraud. So, what were you saying again? There wasn’t widespread election fraud? In your dreams perhaps, but not in reality.
Trump had a right to question the election results. Bill Bar, as Attorney General of the United States, you had a duty to call for, and oversee, a fair and thorough investigation. No way did you. No way could you have done so in the brief time from accusation to your declaration. And just what was your declaration again? Well, there was fraud, just not enough to change the election results.
You, Bill Barr, try to declare yourself to be oh-so righteous and knowing. However, you, Sir, in my opinion, show yourself to be a pompous arse that demands agreement with your views or be cast into the realm of criminal or at the very least – ignorant.
Trump may or may not have lost the election, but he, and we, the American people, had, and continue to have, the right to question and demand proof the results were fair and accurate. To be accused of lying because any believe the election was not fair is an abuse of power, as well as slander and libel by those doing the accusing.
Your dislike for Trump was obvious to me. You seemed to always find fault with him. When you said, “always something” were you EVER referring to the people that were ALWAYS trying to block Trump’s efforts or take him down? What did you do when you knew those 51 were signing a letter that implied a lie? You couldn’t interfere in an election? Isn’t that exactly what you were doing with your silence?
Perhaps you don’t remember Nancy Pelosi’s daughter being involved in trying to stop Trump from being voted in and taking office, but I do. Where are the charges against her and the others that were involved?
Why is Trump the only one being charged and having to prove that either he isn’t guilty or it isn’t a crime to do whatever he did do? Why do others get a free pass to do whatever. That’s justice?
Unlike so many involved in the “get Trump by any means cult,” I happen to believe in fairness to all, including people I can’t stand. And, if I know a lie is a lie being told about someone I dislike, I step up and say so. Can you truthfully say you do?
It’s bad enough that you were aware of the election interference and allowed it to continue, but you can’t stop throwing gas on the fire, can you? You have to keep finding fault with Trump. Everything has to be his fault. It can’t be that others are abusing their office and oaths, right?
I’m ashamed for once having thought you, as attorney general, would ensure that there would be justice and fair play for all. I was obviously wrong. Think not? The treatment of President Trump is an obvious example of just how wrong I was.
In closing, I would like to say one thing that says it all.
Bill Maher calls out Chicago crime wave: Its never addressed “Real Time” host Bill Maher discussed the black-on-black crime issue plaguing cities like Chicago and criticized how it isn’t addressed by Democratic leaders.
“Real Time” host Bill Maher called out the lack of attention to high Black-on-Blackcrime rates in citiessuch as Chicago during his show on Friday.
Hosting a panel with Brown University economist Glenn Loury and international relations scholar Daniel Bessner, Maher questioned the rise in crime in major cities and why it has not been addressed.
“Like Chicago: Most of the shootings are young Black men killing other young Black men. Is that not correct?” Maher asked.
After Loury confirmed it was true, Maher continued, “Okay, much more than what the cops do. Why doesn’t anybody talk about that? Why aren’t there a hundred giant Black celebrities who would have the respect of those people saying what are you doing to yourselves? Why are you killing each other?” (Continue Reading)
Since some elected officials and others in authority seem to feel it is appropriate to take away a “level playing field” for girls in sports, let’s force them to accept the same terms for themselves. A trans will receive preferential treatment in all situations because, after all, their lives matter and apparently matter more than their non-trans peers. It is what is stated when bio females are forced to compete (?) against bio males that are by nature far stronger than the average female. Compete is a key term. Is there any fair competition when the female can only lift 75 lbs to the bio male’s 250 lbs or are the females just there in a hopeless situation?
My theory is…
If all these lib people in charge and those libs elected feel it is okay to cheat the bio girls out of their chance to compete against other bio females for scholarships and other awards – then let’s spread the favor around.
A trans person should get credit for three times the votes their non-trans liberal competition receives in elections.
A trans person should always be promoted over the non-trans liberal so they feel accepted and included.
A trans person should always receive all the awards and bonuses because they are matched only with those who have no chance in a fair competition.
Two things can be true at the same time.
One can not wish harm upon a trans person and not wish harm upon a bio female at the same time. Why should the bio-female be the only one to sacrifice opportunities, while the enlightened act as though the ones sacrificing, and their supporters, are being cruel if they dare try to address and explain the unfairness?
Again, I guess the only way to open the eyes of the so-called enlightened is to force them into like situations of sacrifice. Let them have no chance to win no matter what.
It’s one thing to want to be kind and fair to a group of people and quite another to give special treatment to a group at the unfair expense of another group.
Question…
What would your opinion be if you were to see a team of 20-year-olds playing a sport against a team of 80-year-olds? Would you think it was a “level playing field?”
Those liberals (and their indoctrinated following) in positions of authority and elected offices need to make up their minds. Either they should agree to live by the same “playing field chances” as they are forcing bio girls to live by or get busy and find another answer that is fair to the bio girls that have worked so hard to have a fair shot at the win and the rewards that come with it.
There was a time that race and gender mattered to extreme within the workings and structure of society, but not no more. It has become isolated incidents, rather than life within a white man’s world. As such, having moved so far beyond those days, it is maddening and insulting to hear women, who have failed in their positions, claim that a call for accountability on their part is merely because they are women and/or women of color in America. Are they really suggesting that women are not able and do not have to do their jobs or do them well? Really?
I am a woman that spent most of her working career in a man’s field. I never expected to be treated differently than the men I worked with. I never asked to be excused for my mistakes because, after all, I’m a woman and as a woman – I shouldn’t be held accountable. If I screwed up – I screwed up and it had nothing to do with my race or gender. It had to do with me. It had to do with me – a person – making the mistake. PERIOD!
Likewise, I am sick of being accused of being racist for no other reason than of my skin tone and that I exist. Maybe I even gave an opinion about something that a progressive disagreed with and, of course, many radical libs can’t have that. When they have no legit argument, they go into insult mode and the attempt to destroy. After all, how dare anyone not agree with them?
People should not be “excused” or “protected” or “promoted” because of their race or gender. That is, after all, suggesting that the person is incapable of success in whatever endeavor and being given a free ride. That’s an insult – not a favor.
People should not be “excused” for stealing and assaulting and killing or for over-looking all the stealing and assaulting and killing. That’s irrational – not rational.
Women, of whatever skin tone, should not expect a free ride, but rather, show they are worthy of success in whatever endeavor they pursue. And if they fail – they should accept that their failure is theirs… and not accuse others of holding them accountable just because they are women.
The childish, spoiled brat, mentally-challenged behavior our society is infested with deserves to be frowned upon. It’s time to for the games to end. It is time for accountability.
Bill Barr, you seem to be intent on telling the world how you thought President Trump was wrong in so many ways. Maybe you can take a breath and tell us, Mr. Righteous, if you investigated the allegations of election fraud and interference, how is it you were unaware of the government involvement in censorship and information suppression? How is it that you missed what certainly appears to be a coordination between government employees, the media, and social media to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story and other matters that were deemed to be a threat to the election outcome that the players and their masters apparently were striving for? You know… actual censorship of citizens by the government and actual election interference.
Personally, no matter how many times you claimed it to be, I never for a moment believed an actual investigation ever occurred. A pretend one maybe, but never a real one. It couldn’t have been done that fast and been thorough. Guess you were counting on everyone assuming you have all this integrity, so the world should just take your word. Well, I don’t take your word for anything and you have proven my feelings to be with cause.
You, former AG Bill Barr, are either utterly incompetent or were intentionally blind to what was taking place. Either way, the wrong is on you. And, the proof there wasn’t a thorough investigation is the fact you were supposedly unaware of the wrongs being done right under your nose. Doesn’t matter. Either way, you have egg on your face and I for one will be happy to point out that your pedestal is crumbling, as the wrongs come out into the light.
“One Damn Thing After Another: Memoirs of an Attorney General” by you? Your title is right. You, the libs, and many in the government have continually twisted what Trump did and said and were always looking to find something to “get him on.” He couldn’t turn around without one of you trying to claim he had done something wrong or said something wrong or maybe he just wasn’t as smooth-talking as is liked by the likes of you and your buddies. But tell us, when did Trump ever try to destroy the lives of you and your fellow Trump haters by lies and half-truths?
Another thing before I close.
You were ready to throw your opinion out there about the Mar-a-Lago raid. You, of course, took the side against Trump. So, tell us… what’s your opinion on the classified documents Biden had and where they were found? Have I missed you running to the mic to jump on that situation? Can you explain why one set of attorneys were allowed to be present during searches, but not the others? Actually, your explanation is worthless. We already know that when it comes to Trump, you are quick to find some kind of fault with him, even when it was obvious whatever was done unto him and he merely reacted in defense.
You should be ashamed.
I, for one, am quite ashamed, even if you aren’t. I’m ashamed that I once believed you were the person you pretend to be. My eyes have been opened though. As I said previously, there couldn’t have been an investigation and not discovered the election interference, information suppression, and censorship that was active right under your nose. And you know what? I’m betting it all did make a difference that changed the election results. Someday, we will know. I look forward to you eating humble pie and having to admit to the world that you were wrong in how you have treated President Trump and the citizens that were affected by the wrongs so easily carried out. Yes, I look forward to that day. May it be soon.
A jury has reportedly acquittedPennsylvania pro-life activistwho was accused of allegedly pushing a Planned Parenthood escort during a clash outside an abortion clinic, Life News reported.
Mark Houck, 48, faced charges that he violated the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, which makes it a federal crime to use force with the intent to injure, intimidate and interfere with anyone because that person produces reproductive health care. He pleaded not guilty.
The charge stems from an Oct. 13, 2021 incident in which the Biden Administration alleged Houck assaulted and “forcefully shoved” Bruce Love, a 72-year-old volunteer at aPhiladelphia Planned Parenthood.

U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, celebrated the news of Houck’s acquittal with a tweet.
“Good. Begs question of the $48 billion we give to DOJ…,” he wrote.
Shortly after Houck’s arrest last fall, his attorney Peter Breentold Fox News Digitalthat his client’s arrest was an “outrageous abuse of power” from the Department of Justice that was intended to intimidate pro-life Americans.
“The message from the Biden Department of Justice is pure intimidation against pro-life people and people of faith,” said Breen, senior counsel of the Thomas More Society. “Why in the world would you send this phalanx of officers heavily armed to this family’s home, violate the sanctity of their home, frighten their children? Why would you do that, other than just to send a message? (Continue Reading)
