scumbag/liar-Pelosi’s Capitol Offense

From the moment the shirtless guy with the horned hat appeared on television in the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, Democrats have insisted it was all  Republicans wearing the costume. In other words, they’ve used the disgraceful actions of a few to tar an entire party.

“The violent domestic attack on Congress on January 6th was the worst assault on the Capitol since the War of 1812,” said House Speaker scumbag/liar-Nancy Pelosi Tuesday, “and the worst domestic assault on American Democracy since the Civil War.”

She might want to consult with President bumble/ socialist/scumbag/liar-Joe Biden, who can’t decide if the ridiculous Civil War hyperbole applies better to the Capitol riot or to voting integrity legislation.

A big key to the Democrats’ partisan theatrics was Pelosi’s call for a “9/11-type” commission to investigate what happened in the Capitol riot. She and her fellow Democrats had already decided what happened, of course — within days, they impeached President Donald Trump for “inciting violence.”

But now Democrats want to find out if that spur-of-the-moment incitement was actually planned by the “white supremacists” running rampant across the fruited plain — the ones that supposedly justified spending $500 million on stationing National Guard troops in our capital for several months. Per scumbag/liar-Pelosi, “We need a comprehensive investigation as to who organized this attack, who paid for it, how they nearly succeeded in overthrowing a presidential election, why they did it and how we must organize ourselves to prevent anything like it from ever happening again.”

Was it organized or was it incited? Make up your mind.

When her commission idea failed to launch, scumbag/liar-Pelosi fell back on a select committee with bipartisan membership to give a patina of legitimacy to her fraudulent probe. Now, that committee too is falling apart.

On Wednesday, scumbag/liar-Pelosi rejected two of the five Republicans chosen by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to serve on the committee. Jim Banks of Indiana and Jim Jordan of Ohio were apparently two too many Jims.

“With respect for the integrity of the investigation, with an insistence on the truth and with concern about statements made and actions taken by these Members, I must reject the recommendations,” said scumbag/liar-Pelosi. “The unprecedented nature of January 6th demands this unprecedented decision.”

Respect. Integrity. Truth. All three are such foreign concepts to scumbag/liar-Pelosi and her fellow Democrats that it’s no wonder she made what even she acknowledged was an “unprecedented decision.”

Jordan said: “It doesn’t surprise me. … This is all about attacking President Trump again.”

Banks added that scumbag/liar-Pelosi’s afraid because he’d demand to know “why the Capitol was vulnerable on that day when we had intelligence for weeks leading up to January 6 that told us that something dangerous would happen.”

McCarthy responded exactly as he should have. He called scumbag/liar-Pelosi’s move an “egregious abuse of power” that “has broken this institution,” and he warned that unless she “reverses course … Republicans will not be party to their sham process and will instead pursue our own investigation of the facts.”

Again, the Democrat plan from January 6 forward has been to tar Trump on his way out of office and to bludgeon Republicans all the way until November 2022. The Capitol riot was indeed a dark moment in American history, and though Republicans rightly opposed creating this committee, they weren’t wrong to ultimately play along and attempt an honest investigation. But scumbag/ liar-Pelosi has shown her cards, and there’s nothing legitimate or honest about her game. ~The Patriot Post

The $6 Trillion Democrat Debauchery
vjveVt4UZCvNJn6xHzV5z4-bY8HcW55NSuar3NCVo9SjYCSDIM-l9CoxrYH3cZQS5azn9lRKANXDLUvDBxcn7v4wMj-j1j0vVssrPrG13TNLqe2UmXh-cQ2zkyqP3w=s0-d-e1-ft#<a href=
There’s a lot of profligate spending going on in Washington these days, but approximately $1 trillion of it was forestalled Wednesday afternoon, when Senate Republicans used the filibuster to block debate on an as-yet unresolved bipartisan “infrastructure” bill.
 

We use scare quotes around the word “infrastructure” because, thanks to the Democrats, the word no longer means what any of us think it means. But to the Republicans’ credit, this measly trillion really does  sound like infrastructure: Around $400 billion is slotted for baseline “transportation” funding, and $579 billion will go to new transportation projects, water, broadband, and improving our power grids. Is there still plenty of room in which to shovel and hide pork? Sure. But it seems that the really ridiculous stuff — the Kirsten Gillibrand-type stuff — has been yanked out.

Recall that back in April, the New York Democrat  asserted: “Paid leave is infrastructure. Child care is infrastructure. Caregiving is infrastructure.” With thinking like that, it’s a wonder we’re only $29 trillion in debt; only $85,000 per citizen in debt; only $227,000 per taxpayer in debt.

Lawmakers expect to reach agreement on the unfinished legislation by early next week, but Senate Majority Leader Chuck scumbag/liar-Schumer’s gambit to get a head start on the bill’s passage went down in flames yesterday. As The Wall Street Journal reports:

The vote failed, with 49 in favor and 51 against, short of the 60 needed to open debate. [scumbag/liar-Schumer] switched his vote to no, which he said gave him the option to bring the bill up again.

Senate Democratic leaders had hoped to start the process Wednesday of moving both the infrastructure bill and a separate $3.5 trillion package of child care, education, antipoverty and climate provisions expected to pass with only Democratic votes.

The failed vote Wednesday pushed the timeline for both deeper into the summer, although lawmakers involved in the infrastructure negotiations said they expected to have enough of an agreement in place to move forward by Monday, if Senate Democratic leaders agree to schedule another vote.

This is just the infrastructure bill, though. The real behemoth, the real outrage, is the Senate budget proposal: that $3.5 trillion package of non-infrastructure, Big Government spending. There’s even word that Democrats will try to include amnesty for illegal aliens within the package. That bill is likely to pass the Senate and become law without a single Republican vote, as Democrats plan to avail themselves of every accounting trick necessary to skirt the Senate’s existing budget-reconciliation rules and thereby avoid a Republican filibuster.

Worse yet, that $3.5 trillion sticker is what we might call the base price. With taxes, title, and dealer prep, the Democrats’ used car salesmen are likely to soak our children and their children for something like $5 trillion, according to an independent analysis by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. Why? Because socialist socialist/commie-Bernie Sanders chairs the Senate Budget Committee. As the Journal’s editorial board writes: “The budget will be built on phony assumptions and gimmicks. Democrats know their proposed tax hikes and dubious ‘pay-fors’ won’t come close to fully funding ‘every major program that President  bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden has asked us for’ — as Senate Majority Leader Chuck scumbag/liar-Schumer claimed.”

That would be the same President bumble/socialist/ scumbag/liar-Biden who, as our Nate Jackson noted on Tuesday, went out to reassure the American people about the economy and saw the stock market drop 700 points. It’s also the same bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden who recently said: “There’s nobody suggesting there’s unchecked inflation on the way. No serious economist.” Except, that is, for some serious economists.

As South Carolina Republican Congressman Ralph Norman put it, “Spending $3.5 trillion and expecting it to combat inflation is like throwing gasoline on a fire and hoping it goes out.”

In short: This is fiscal rape, and we taxpayers are the Sabine women.

“History has shown time and time again,” wrote former Oklahoma Republican Senator Tom Coburn in his 2012 book The Debt Bomb, “that debt can bring nations to their knees. Great powers such as Britain, Spain, France, the Ottomans, the Soviet Union, and the Roman Empire declined economically before they contracted, collapsed, or were conquered.”

More recently, our Mark Alexander also warned about both the debt bomb and the inflation bomb.

If and when things blow up, at least it won’t have been a surprise. ~The Patriot Post

China Rejects WHO Terms for COVID Origin Probe
ZOhc5MmPGmcvN5AG6V-ZnDx8GjIcUF7nxuVKNZWbAjzsPEGbvm6dc5waK4k_hWRmpfRfkH_8pc_CX1BtjM9zSFZ0O3Hd1Azp08mAw0m3wYjXQKWFXE1LVP_rHtPxmQ=s0-d-e1-ft#<a href=

In what should come as a shock to absolutely no one, the Chinese Communist Party rejected the World Health Organization’s second-phase study plan for investigating the origin of COVID-19. Recall that last week, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus  admitted that his organization had been “premature” in its push to dismiss the lab leak theory as “extremely unlikely.” As we noted previously, the WHO was happy to tout Beijing’s dubious claims following its initial COVID origin investigation in which UN investigators essentially  ruled out the possibility that the novel virus leaked from a Wuhan lab — a lab that just happened to be researching coronaviruses.

China’s vice minister of the National Health Commission, Zeng Yixin, asserted that he was “shocked” by the WHO’s request for greater access to the Wuhan lab and its research. “It is impossible for us to accept such an origin-tracing plan,” he stated.

Unsurprisingly, the director of the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s biosafety lab, Yuan Zhiming, claimed, “I want to emphasize that … the Wuhan Institute of Virology has never designed, made or leaked the novel coronavirus.” Does anyone believe he would admit to anything else? This is a communist dictatorial regime that’s currently engaged in the systematic enslavement and genocide of more than a million Uyghur Muslims. It also has a long history of murderous oppression. It’s a good bet that Yuan doesn’t want to suddenly “disappeared.”

In a further demonstration of the Chinese government’s lack of credibility, Beijing is still ridiculously reporting that the country’s death toll from COVID is only 4,636, a total that has remained unchanged for months.

Zeng contended that China’s refusal to allow access to the Wuhan lab was because “we are opposed to politicizing the tracing work.” That’s rich. No country has done more than China to politicize the novel virus, and it continues to do so, even pushing the conspiracy theory  that COVID-19 was a U.S. creation intentionally released in Wuhan. It’s awfully interesting that China now wants to push the natural origin theory as the only serious option to research.

Will the WHO continue to press and investigate the lab leak theory as part of its overall investigation into the origin of COVID? It may attempt to do so, but China is holding all the cards and has made its position clear. And since Beijing can control what and what does not get investigated within Wuhan, any evidence leading to scientific certainty for the origin of COVID will likely remain out of reach, as will serious efforts to hold China accountable for this devastating plague.  ~The Patriot Post

Don’t Renew Teachers Union Contracts When They Expire
zkpgmb44xKcx6C1Lv9UmvjsaNx8a5eiqGN_1jw6XfBvb0woeED4P0ZRo7Hd_gZV6_SRP9RVW63QQuFMMi-pC_zcSyQVbxi9eFY-tcwt4VmJboVl5MhtDpDceEBPfAQ=s0-d-e1-ft#<a href=

Right now there is a debate about the pros and cons of putting cameras in classrooms. Some believe they are necessary to prevent our children from being indoctrinated, and/or to check teacher competency and the appropriateness of subject matter. Others insist that it would ultimately end up hurting the children themselves if a poorly thought-out comment was leaked online. Unfortunately, it’s the wrong debate: Either way, the presence of unionized teachers remains a constant — one that has proven to be a spectacular failure over the course of decades.

In the “good” old days, that failure largely centered around sheer incompetence. Prior to the pandemic, test results of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) revealed further declines in reading and math scores that followed a decade of stagnation. Despite these realties, most parents remained either unaware of or resigned to the status quo that saw American students routinely underperforming in comparison to their international peers.

Unions and their allies always had a litany of excuses for those failures, with a lack of funding topping the list, despite the fact that America spends more money per pupil on primary and secondary schools than any other major developed nation in the world.

Then came the pandemic, and the true nature of teachers unions became impossible to ignore. “Even as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization warned that the harm from continued school closures dramatically outweighs the threat posed by COVID, unions successfully fought to keep campuses shuttered, while ensuring their members still get paid,” columnist Robert Fellner explains. “Rather than doing everything they could to ensure students could return to the classroom as quickly as possible, unions exploited this terrible crisis for their own gain.”

Indeed, and few did more to exploit the situation than United Teachers Los Angeles (UTLA), which held returning to classrooms hostage to a litany of progressive political demands that included putting a moratorium on charter schools and defunding police. It also forged a collective bargaining agreement that prohibited schools from requiring face-to-face online instruction — and allowed teachers to work only four hours per day.

When some parents took educating their children into their own hands and formed “pods” or “micro-schools,” they were deemed “racist” and “privileged” for doing so by unionists and their allies — who ultimately revealed that the equal sharing of misery was all that mattered.

Now the utterly bankrupt and highly politicized nature of these unions has become impossible to ignore. Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), has proposed an end to standardized testing. The National Education Association (NEA), the nation’s largest teachers union, approved a plan to push Critical Race Theory in all 50 states — and to attack those who oppose its implementation. And both the NEA  and the United Federation of Teachers (UFT) have aligned themselves with Black Lives Matter, with the latter organization asserting that “until people of African descent are treated with dignity, humanity, and respect in all areas of our society and the barriers to their safety and health and full participation in the economy and wealth creation are dismantled, all lives do not matter.”

That BLM advocated for the “disruption” of the nuclear family before removing that agenda from its website? That it openly supports the communist regime in Cuba? That its Utah chapter labeled the American flag a “symbol of hatred”? None of this matters to the NEA, whose delegates pledged to “join with Black Lives Matter at School and the Zinn Education Project” for a “national day of action” on George Floyd’s birthday, whereby recruited teachers would hold political demonstrations and “teach lessons about structural racism and oppression.”

Teachers unions also support the entirety of the LGBTQ agenda, one that includes familiarizing children as young  as six and seven with gender “fluidity,” and having them participate in drag queen story hours.

How do they get away with all of it? As the campaign contribution-tracking website Open Secrets reveals, teachers unions have given Democrats “at least 94 percent of the funds they contributed to candidates and parties since as far back as 1990, where our data begins.”

In short, teachers unions operate a de facto monopoly, with the full quid pro quo support of the Democrat Party. And anyone who opposes their agenda can expect to endure unrelenting, full-throated accusations of bigotry, transphobia, etc.

Thus, the first question is obvious: Why are Republicans allowing it to happen? The answer is as simple as it is depressing: Because they are largely a collection of spineless, go-along-to-get-along milquetoasts. Thus, while a number of mostly GOP-controlled states have proposed or passed laws banning the teaching of CRT  and “transgender” participation in sports, unionized teachers are signing pledges to defy banning CRT, and the bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden administration is threatening schools that don’t abide the “transgender” agenda with a loss of federal funding.

It’s time for a paradigm shift. States with Republican majorities should enact measures stating that once a teachers union contract expires in any city or town in the state, it will not be renewed. Instead, teachers will be hired on a case-by-case, meritocratic basis.

The timing couldn’t be better for such an effort. The public has never been more aware of the contempt teachers unions have for their concerns, and the disruption such a move would engender has already been preceded by the disruption of teachers unions keeping kids out of school for more than a year. There is little doubt millions of parents dread a return to the status quo, with a  substantial majority of them opposing CRT, along with countless others appalled by an agenda of sexualization  that often includes no opt-out clauses for parents who object.

By definition, unions protect and promote the interests of their members. Thus, even under the best of circumstances, children and parents are a secondary  consideration — when they’re not being outright dismissed with contempt by “woke” unions and their allies on local school boards.

Now that teachers unions have become completely political, and education itself has devolved into the wholesale indoctrination of children — the most infuriating aspect of which is teaching American students to despise  their own nation — it’s time to end the unions’ stranglehold.

Nothing could be more “win-win” for Republicans. The overwhelming majority of Americans want children to learn how to think, not what to think, and allowing contracts to simply expire could be the foremost reframing of an argument in the history of the nation. In short, instead of taking their usual reactive position to an agenda framed by Democrats, Republicans could force Democrats into that position. Make them defend teaching children that color matters more than character, that testing and standards don’t really matter, and that sexual dysphoria should be championed in lieu of biological reality.

Everything is downstream from education. Unions and their Democrat Party allies have made it clear they want a socialist/Marxist future for America and that they have full control over its implementation. It’s time for Republicans to disabuse them of their ambitions — in no uncertain terms.

Quite simply, “Putting Children First” is the mother of all winning campaign slogans. ~The Patriot Post

bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden’s DOE Nominee Threatens Student Due ProcessRights
zAJ8emHKbpKjfEVITKFV3sm5pZPL7XMLrJrAruyysMHWQSc-ErJzDEIwBqKq4erAHR0omy4hCGmKqV2jbDLMn0zeHYb0gpQSa70In3uk1MEOyruT43qzMvI2j7buaQ=s0-d-e1-ft#<a href=

bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Joe Biden is looking to erode students’ due process rights after Donald Trump’s education secretary, Betsy DeVos, successfully worked to restore them. bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden’s nominee for assistant secretary for civil rights in the Education Department is Catherine Lhamon, who held the same position during Barack scumbag/liar-nObama’s presidency. It was Lhamon who was responsible for producing the infamous 2011 “Dear Colleague” letter that significantly reduced the due process rights of students accused of sexual misconduct.

Lhamon argued that the judicial standard of innocence until proven guilty should not apply within the college and university setting, as trials there are not criminal proceedings. The results of this dubious and dangerous directive were several instances of falsely accused students successfully suing schools for violating their civil right to due process.

In her recent hearing before the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, Lhamon was pressed by Senator Richard Burr (R-NC) as to her views on the standard of innocence until proven guilty. Her response clearly indicated that her views haven’t changed over the last four years. “There isn’t a presumption of innocence in the existing Title IX regulation,” she  answered. “My view is that civil rights investigators, investigators at schools, need to start from the presumption that the facts are what they are. … They shouldn’t be assuming somebody is guilty because a person has been accused. … They should be open to the possibility that the person is not [guilty].”

That’s turning the U.S. standard of justice regarding the accused entirely on its head. One should be “open to the possibility” an accused person is not guilty? What is this, the Spanish Inquisition? While Lhamon obfuscated and refused to say what she would seek to change, she made it clear in a social media post what she thought of DeVos’s Title IX rule change that restored basic due process rights to students. She lamented that it was a return “to the bad old days, that predate my birth, when it was permissible to rape and sexually harass students with impunity.”

That’s a flat-out lie that serves to disparage the notion of a balanced and fair system of justice, as well as the nation she’s ostensibly supposed to serve.

Should Lhamon return to her previous position of power, she will undoubtedly seek to undo the progress made under DeVos and reinsert her own deeply flawed and unjust standards, reestablishing college kangaroo courts that resulted in a slew of deserved lawsuits. But more disconcerting is the attempt to spread the poisonous notion that due process rights are somehow inadequate and unjust. If this idea takes hold in America’s colleges and universities, it won’t take long for it to spread beyond, eventually infecting our criminal legal system. ~The Patriot Post

The Bitter Fruit of the Left’s Anti-Cop Campaign
pzFtX2RJrfGxSkzrzru1axX1TUW-aw2YTiPJDQeRdYIdWTmwEGQqLHcQVV2eJglBBLmFeStQUavxXkJzB2CADUygv50Lg-LD7ecL72DQMlPl8wQTzZ_0DIjPDn8xEg=s0-d-e1-ft#<a href=

Muriel Bowser has a problem. Crime in the city she was elected to run, Washington, DC, is spinning out of control. And Mayor Bowser has no one but her fellow Democrats to blame. After all — and despite their ridiculous attempt to shift the blame — they’re the ones who drank the “Defund the Police” Kool-Aid.

“A pair of headline-grabbing shootings dragged the district into the spotlight over the weekend,” reports the Washington Examiner, “renewing focus over the city’s decision to cut millions of dollars from its police budget in response to pressure from activists.”

One of those shootings resulted in the tragic and all-too-common death of an innocent child — in this case, six-year-old Nyiah Courtney, who was riding her scooter during a drive-by that left five adults injured.

The other shooting got a lot more attention, because it no doubt frightened some wealthy, white, privileged progressives out to catch a Saturday night ballgame at Nationals Park. Gunshots rang out just outside the park, and the ensuing chaos caused league officials to call the game.

Bowser no doubt got an earful for the latter incident, but in a few days she and her fellow city leaders will likely have forgotten the name of Nyiah Courtney.

So it goes.

Tom Cotton recognizes the injustice of this. Last month, the Arkansas Republican senator addressed our current crime wave at the National Press Club. He began:

Five years ago, I spoke at some length on the subject of crime and violence in our streets. At the time, our nation was in the grips of the scumbag/liar-nObama crime wave of 2015-2016. We experienced the steepest two-year increase in murder in half a century and a significant rise in violent crime. That crime wave resulted directly from the scumbag/liar-nObama administration’s pro-criminal and anti-police policies. Federal malfeasance compounded the harm inflicted by the “Ferguson Effect,” itself the acute consequence of heightened anti-police activism and anti-enforcement policies at the local level.

I warned at the time that the criminal-leniency proposals being adopted across the nation are not merely wrong. They are dangerous. They threaten a return to the worst days of the 1990s, when law-abiding citizens lived in fear of their lives. Based on the number of unsolved murders, rapes, and other serious crimes, I contended that, far from the fabled “over-incarceration problem,” America had an under-incarceration problem. Woolly-headed critics across the political spectrum condemned me for saying this.

Cotton then said, “I was right then, and I’m right now.”

The senator rattled off some sobering statistics about the current crime wave, including last year’s largest single-year increase in murder on record, with murder rising nationwide by an astonishing 25%. He continued: “This violent crime wave surprised many people. After all, starting in 2017, our nation got a reprieve from the criminal-leniency policies of the scumbag/liar-nObama administration. Violent-crime rates turned around and began declining in the first three years of the Trump administration, largely because of increased federal prosecutions of drug trafficking, gun offenses, and other violent crime. A 46 percent increase in federal funding to local and state law enforcement and a crackdown on illegal immigration also helped matters.”

Cotton then noted that hard-left prosecutors, many with campaigns funded by scumbag-George Soros, won elections in cities like Chicago, Philly, and San Francisco, and they adopted far more lenient criminal justice policies. All of a sudden, district attorneys stopped prosecuting shoplifters and other petty criminals, and entire categories of misdemeanors.

Once again, the theory of broken-window policing was put to the test. And again it proved true. “Leading Democrats called to ‘defund the police,’” he said, “and at least 20 major cities agreed, slashing their police departments to the tune of $840 million. New York City alone shifted nearly $1 billion from the NYPD, and Los Angeles cut funding to its police department by $150 million.”

What did these people think would happen?

Cotton calls this attack on law enforcement “nothing less than the gravest assault on the rule of law in modern times. The simple fact is that today’s Democrat Party is pro-riot, anti-cop, and anti-prosecutor. Democrats today have more sympathy for violent criminals than for innocent victims.” And he rightly blames the gated-community elitists for it — elitists who always seem to escape the consequences of their ruinous policies.

“Policing is one of the greatest civil rights issues of our time,” Cotton said. “Weak policing, weak prosecuting, and weak sentencing hurts blacks more than any other group of American citizens. African Americans tragically constitute approximately half of all murder victims and regularly suffer the brunt of damage resulting from riots.”

As for solutions, Cotton boiled it down to the Three Ps of law enforcement: police, prosecutors, and prisons. If, as the Left likes to say, we don’t “reimagine” our current approach in these three critical areas, our current crime surge will become commonplace, and regular folks will continue to bear the brunt of it. ~The Patriot Post

Paul vs. Fauci

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul and Dr. Anthony Fauci, America’s top infectious disease expert, clashed again in a Senate hearing Tuesday. Senator Paul is right and Dr. Fauci is wrong. Here’s the dispute.

At the beginning of the pandemic, Dr. Fauci led the charge in claiming that COVID-19 originated naturally and likely jumped from bats to humans. He provided no evidence to support his theory.

More importantly, there is a Chinese communist bio-hazard lab that was conducting experiments on coronaviruses in the exact same city where the outbreak first occurred.

The Chinese communists didn’t want the world to think that the virus came from their lab. But why were Dr. Fauci and the American media so intent on convincing us that it didn’t come from the lab either? I’ll get to Dr. Fauci’s motives in a moment. But the media were intent on blaming Donald Trump.

The Chinese communists were doing what’s called “gain of function research” at the Wuhan lab. That research involves making a coronavirus more dangerous to humans. Increasing evidence suggests that one of those viruses leaked out of that lab. More than 600,000 Americans and millions around the world have died as a result.

There are a lot of coronaviruses that occur naturally. But this one known as COVID-19 has characteristics that some scientists believe indicate human engineering.

We have since discovered that the federal agency Dr. Fauci works for gave grants to the Chinese communist lab in Wuhan, funds that may very well be implicated in this deadly research.

Is that why Fauci was so intent on convincing us the virus occurred in nature and not from lab experimentation? It looks like he was trying to save his own hide.

While most media commentators and pundits were quick to defend Dr. Fauci Tuesday, one brave Washington Post journalist dared to point out the obvious. Josh Rogin tweeted:

“Rand Paul was right and Fauci was wrong. The NIH was funding gain of function research in Wuhan but NIH pretended it didn’t meet their ‘gain of function’ definition to avoid their own oversight mechanism.”

Fauci has repeatedly played word games in his congressional testimony to mislead the American people. Senator Paul is now calling on the Justice Department to open a criminal investigation. That investigation must take place. We deserve the truth.

The Pro-Abortion Left

Many pro-choice Americans often take offense at the term “pro-abortion.” Sometimes I even hear from conservatives who think the phrase is unfair. It’s not. Sadly, much of the left today is unapologetically pro-abortion.

There’s an old saying in Washington that if you want less of something you tax it, and if you want more of something you subsidize it. Makes sense, right? Well, House Democrats must want more abortions because are trying to force all Americans to subsidize them.

It wasn’t that long ago when Democrat President  scumbag/liar-Bill Clinton said abortions should be “rare.” But today’s Democrat Party is proudly pro-abortion. So much so that in order to secure his party’s nomination,  bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Joe Biden had to flip flop on the issue of taxpayer-funding of abortions, which is extremely unpopular among the American people.

A few years ago, there was a big campaign on the left to make abortion cool. It was called “Shout Your Abortion.” That’s pro-abortion.

Here’s the latest example. The women’s magazine Marie Claire published a story recently calling on Hollywood to include more onscreen depictions of characters getting abortions in movies and TV shows because that’s just what America needs right now — more death.

Amazingly, the story tries to spin abortion for mothers who already have children as “a serious act of love … to give the children they already have the best possible life.” That’s disgusting, but clearly pro-abortion. I suspect that twisted idea would actually frighten most children.

Glorifying acts of violence in the womb is a gross disservice to women. Far from a “serious act of love,” killing an innocent child is the most violent thing a family member can do to another family member.

The good news is that the left’s desperation to justify abortion shows that it knows it is losing this battle. They are fighting against the increasing evidence of the humanity of the unborn child. Science is pro-life. And anyone who claims to be an ally of justice should be all in on defending innocent life!

bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden’s Extremism Exposed

The bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden Education Department recently sent out a list of resources to school districts across the country about how they can safely reopen after the pandemic. One of those resources was a guide from the Abolitionist Teaching Network.

The network was co-founded by Professor Bettina Love, a 2016 HipHop Fellow at Harvard University, who has been described as having “the mind of a scholar and the heart of a revolutionary.” Well, she certainly has some “revolutionary” ideas when it comes to education.

Her guide urges teachers to “disrupt whiteness,” whatever that means. It also instructs teachers to “remove all punitive or disciplinary practices that spirit murder Black, Brown, and Indigenous children,” whatever that means.

Professor Love says her network is “dedicated to not creating new schools or reimagining schools, but destroying schools that do nothing but harm Black and brown children,” adding, “If you don’t recognize that White supremacy is in everything we do, then we have a problem.”

Spokesmen for the bumble/socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden Administration are scrambling to distance themselves from Professor Love, saying the inclusion of the Abolitionist Teaching Network guide in their resource material was an “error.” Consider me skeptical.

The big teachers’ unions have endorsed critical race theory, and some extremists at bumble/socialist/ scumbag/liar-Biden’s Department of Education thought it was a good idea to include this guide. Will that person be fired? I’m not holding my breath.

Petulant scumbag/liar-Pelosi

As you know, House Democrats rammed through a vote to create a special committee to investigate the events of January 6th. The Justice Department and the courts are already doing that, but everyone knows this is just another partisan “get Trump” waste of time and money.

Further proving the point, Speaker scumbag/liar-Nancy Pelosi Wednesday took the unprecedented step of rejecting two of the Republican members appointed to the committee – conservative stalwarts Jim Jordan and Jim Banks.

Under a previous agreement, scumbag/liar-Pelosi would name eight members to the committee and House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy would name five. But Speaker  scumbag/liar-Pelosi clearly thinks she is entitled to name all 13 members.

Remember, scumbag/liar-Pelosi refused to remove Eric Swalwell from the House Intelligence Committee even after it was revealed that he had been compromised by a Chinese spy. But Banks and Jordan are beyond the pale.

I’m pleased to report that McCarthy is pushing back hard, declaring, “Unless Speaker scumbag/liar-Pelosi reverses course and seats all five Republican nominees, Republicans will not be party to their sham process.”

By the way, if scumbag/liar-Pelosi wants to investigate something, she might consider investigating last year’s riots. Two-thirds of Americans support such an investigation. That’s a lot more than the 52% who support a congressional investigation of January 6th. ~The Patriot Post
