Sanctuary City Of New York Makes “Migrants” Sleep Outside Of Full Hotel

By William Teach August 1, 2023 – 6:45 am

One would think that all the Democrat voting and unfettered illegal immigration supporting residents of SCNY would offer to house all the “migrants”

Sobering video shows migrants sleeping on cardboard outside iconic NYC hotel as shelter hits capacity

Sobering video shows dozens of migrants sleeping on cardboard outside the iconic Roosevelt Hotel in Midtown Manhattan on Monday morning — as the makeshift processing center for asylum seekers hit capacity this weekend.

The slumbering newly arrived migrants could be seen filling the sidewalks surrounding the historic hotel at 45th Street and Vanderbilt Avenue, stretching from the hotel door up East 47th Street.

The group slept shoulder-to-shoulder across three full blocks while waiting to be processed at the site, which also houses migrant families, as NYPD officers monitored the situation.

Heartbreaking images showed crowd-control ropes separating the migrants from passersby, as those waiting for access to proper shelter huddled under blankets with their belongings alongside them.

Heartbreaking? They could have avoided this by not showing up at the US border/being caught entering illegally and demanding asylum, which most won’t be eligible for.

One very interesting this is that there almost no women and children. They’re mostly adult males.

High Flying John Kerry, Who Was Also In Vietnam, Wants To “Reduce Emissions From The Food System”

By William Teach July 31, 2023 – 3:00 pm

Does anyone think that John Kerry isn’t eating pretty darned good, including while flying his private jet around the country and world? That he never wants for something good to eat? But, you peasants need to be starved (video here)

The full quote in the tweet says

Frequent private jet passenger, John Kerry, admits that destruction of the farming industry is essential to achieving ‘Net Zero’:

“Agriculture contributes about 33% of all the emissions of the world. And we can’t get to net zero—we don’t get this job done—unless agriculture is front and centre as part of the solution.”

“You just can’t continue to both warm the planet, while also expecting to feed it. It doesn’t work. So we have to reduce emissions from the food system.”

Who decides this? Who would be in charge of forcing people to do this? Of cutting off their food? Of forcing them to eat plants (which, BTW, release a lot of methane) and bugs? While the Elites chomp on steak and veal and stuff? Few Warmists voluntarily do this….or do anything in their own lives.

Oh, Good: Rep Nancy Mace Turns Against Impeachment

By William Teach July 31, 2023 – 10:30 am

When the Democrats were considering impeaching Trump, both times, did you hear any leading Democrats say “we shouldn’t do this?” Or were they in total lockstep? Of course, they were talking about impeaching Trump even before he won the general election in 2016. You can always count on Republicans to get squishy

GOP Rep. Mace: Impeachment Puts Moderate Republicans ‘at Risk for 2024’

During this weekend’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) warned an impeachment of President Joe Biden could pose some risks for Republicans in the upcoming election cycle.

Mace said moderate Republican members would be politically vulnerable if House leadership pursued impeachment.

“There are Republicans who are publicly expressing concerns, Congressman Ken Buck, one of them, about going down this trail,” host Shannon Bream. “Here’s what Politico says, McCarthy must placate his hard right critics whose support he’ll need in this week’s high stakes spending votes without alienating his most skittish members who face re-election on turf that Biden won. So what about this issue of impeachment, is the party divided?”

“Well, I do believe we are, at this point, an inquiry is different from an impeachment vote and is another tool in the toolbox,” Mace replied. “But I will tell you, every time we walk the plank, we are putting moderate members, members that won Biden, won districts. We are putting those seats at risk for 2024. We are putting the majority at risk. And it’s not just impeachment that does that. Other issues, like abortion, et cetera, also put those members on the plank.”

Was the news concerned about moderate Democrats being in danger for the 2020 elections? Were elected Democrats concerned, or their yapping folks? Actually, yes, they were. But, they were also saying things like “This is not something that you can do based on polls.” They thought it was the right thing to do, and they impeached Trump over tiny, minor things. Biden is a criminal. He’s used his position to enrich himself and his family (how does a guy getting paid the Congressional wage since 1973 have multiple houses in rich areas?), all while screwing over America by working with China and Ukraine, among others. He’s beyond shady, compromised, and dirty.

“But the one thing I’ll say is this, is that whatever the evidence shows us, we ought to follow the facts, and we have to be better than Nancy Pelosi,” she continued. “Pelosi really politicized the impeachment process. We do not want to do that here. We have to show overwhelming, undeniable evidence in order to move this thing forward. And if we can’t, then we should not. But if we do, then we ought to use every tool in the toolbox to make sure the American people see it for what it is, and we can hold everyone accountable.”

In other words, she wants a process so deliberate, so slow, that it will never happen. Has she been paying attention to all the information on the Biden crime syndicate? She wants perfect. I’ve mentioned this before, that the GOP is going to attempt to have so many different components of Biden’s corruption involved that it will be too difficult and too complicated. They don’t need more than a few big things. Never underestimate the ability of elected Republicans to mess up an issue.

CNN Is Vexed That Republicans Cannot Get Out Of Their Own Bind Over Summer Weather

By William Teach July 31, 2023 – 7:15 am

Heatwaves happen, just like cold waves and wonderful weather. In Warmist World this is all your fault, and Something Must Be Done

Why Republicans can’t get out of their climate bind, even as extreme heat overwhelms the US

Deadly heatwaves are baking the US. Scientists just reported that July will be the hottest month on record. And now, after years of skepticism and denial in the GOP ranks, a small number of Republicans are urging their party to get proactive on the climate crisis.

But the GOP is stuck in a climate bind – and likely will be for the next four years, in large part because they’re still living in the shadow of former president and 2024 Republican frontrunner Donald Trump.

Well, I wasn’t expecting Trump Derangement Syndrome. We shouldn’t be surprised, though

Even as more Republican politicians are joining the consensus that climate change is real and caused by humans, Trump’s inflammatory rhetoric has driven the party to the right on climate and extreme weather. Trump has called the extremely settled science of climate change a “hoax” and more recently suggested that the impacts of it “may affect us in 300 years.”

Scientists this week reported that this summer’s unrelenting heat wave would have been “virtually impossible” were it not for the planet-warming pollution from burning fossil fuels. They also confirmed that July will go down as the hottest month on record – and almost certainly that the planet’s temperature is hotter now than it has been in around 120,000 years.

Yet for being one of the most pressing issues of the 21st century, climate is rarely mentioned on the 2024 campaign trail.

Yeah, this is turning into mostly about Trump. But, look, let’s hypothetically agree that the current warming is in fact anthropogenic global warming, and it is mostly caused by Humanity, and CO2 is the control knob. Now what? If that’s the case, can the Warmists explain why all their policies revolve around increasing the power of government over out lives? Voluntarily giving up our freedoms to government? Allowing government to restrict our travel, telling us where we can live, what we can eat, what we can buy, what temperature we can keep our AC and heating at? Taking more and more of our money? What we can say, read, write, and think? Ending capitalism? Why are all their policies rather Fascistic? Authoritarian? Why are their policies never about increasing freedom, consumer choice, and limiting government authority?

When Republicans do weigh in on climate change – and what we should do about it – they tend to support the idea of capturing planet-warming pollution rather than cutting fossil fuels. But many are reticent to talk about how to solve the problem, and worry Trump is having a chilling effect on policies to combat climate within the party.

Why is CNN using vast amounts of fossil fuels and energy to gather and disseminate their version of the news? Why do so few Warmists give up their own use of fossil fuels? Give up meat? Live in tiny homes? And so forth? I enjoy this comment at the Yahoo News version

This is what weakens this country. When a political group decides on a policy, often based on faulty information,and then are reluctent to see compelling data as nothing more than political propaganda, they paint themselves into the proverbial corner and refuse to conceed. In some warped universe, they believe that capitulation, to the overwhelming scientific information,is a sign of weakness and not the intelligent option that it is. In digging in their heals, they are preventing progress and damaging the nation. Continuing the false narrative can only hurt America.

Yet, Warmists have decided on a policy to fix the scam issue, and it’s all about control. Weirdly, they’ve all been brainwashed to ignore that they will all be giving up their own money and freedom.

NBC News: It’s Impossible To Change Your Race

By William Teach July 31, 2023 – 7:00 am

The heck you say

Inside the online world of people who think they can change their race

Since before she hit double digits, Alisa, 15, said she has felt a special connection with Japan. The high school student, who asked to be anonymous for fear of being doxxed online, was born in Ukraine and lives in Maryland, but she now goes by the Japanese name Miyuki and listens to “subliminals” that promise she will wake up and be Japanese. So far, she believes that by listening to YouTube videos with lo-fi music and photos of East Asian facial features while she sleeps, her vision has cleared, her eyelids have become smaller and her hair is just a bit darker.

Practitioners of what they call “race change to another,” or RCTA, purport to be able to manifest physical changes in their appearance and even their genetics to become a different race. They tune in to subliminal videos that claim can give them an “East Asian appearance” or “Korean DNA.”

But experts underscore that it is simply impossible to change your race.

“It’s just belief,” said Jamie Cohen, an assistant professor of cultural and media studies at Queens College, City University of New York. “It doesn’t ever really work, because it’s not doing anything, but they have convinced themselves that it works because there’s other people who have convinced themselves, as well.”

Impossible to change your race? Kinda like it’s impossible to change your sex? Remember, NBC, like so many in the Credentialed Media, lauded grifters like Rachel Dolezal Shawn King for a bit, until Activists decided this was “blackfishing“. Look, if it’s not OK to “identify” as another race, why is it OK to identify as another sex? Don’t expect an actual reasoned, literate, cogent, adult answer to that one.

Experts agree race is not genetic. But they contend that even though race is a cultural construct, it is impossible to change your race because of the systemic inequalities inherent to being born into a certain race.

Oh, good grief. There are three races, as called originally: Caucasoid, Mongoloid, and Negroid, with a small classification of Dravidians through the India region. Is this biology? Some will argue that it is, some will argue that it isn’t. Especially with all the inter-breeding over time. It’s definitely biological that some races are more susceptible to certain medical conditions. Regardless, we won’t solve this. But, if race is cultural construct, why can’t you change it. “Systemic inequalities?” Horseshit. Total copout answer. Gender is biological. You cannot change it. Even if you cut your tallywacker off and get breast implants and take all sorts of drugs, you are still a man.

Freund added that the idea of changing one’s race operates differently depending on a person’s racial background and that white people who seek to “transition” to other races can often sidestep the harms of racism.

Why, yes, the article, which is long, does continue to get wackier and wackier.

The intense fixation on and enamoration with East Asian traits and appearances has led some members of the East Asian community to criticize RCTA as fetishistic and harmful. Some scholars say it is another case of cultural appropriation, rather than appreciation. “Maybe this isn’t the way to respectfully engage with the culture,” Rhee said.

Instead of using words like that, just call them nuts. You may appreciate a culture, you may want to live the culture, but, you cannot be that race. But, everything is crazy these days, because there really are not big issues, like a world war or Cold War.

But, not one mention or consideration that this all applies to gender, as well.

Narrative Fail: Most Greek Wildfires Started By Arsonists

By William Teach July 30, 2023 – 7:00 am

Well, huh, you don’t say

Most fires in Greece were started ‘by human hand’, government says

Most of the 667 fires that have erupted across Greece in recent weeks were started “by human hand”, the country’s senior climate crisis official has said.

As the Mediterranean country emerges from an unprecedented, 15-day period of heatwave-induced infernos, the scale of the destruction is finally being laid bare.

While weather conditions have been different from any other year – with experts calling the first three weeks of July the hottest on record – most of the fires could have been prevented, the government claimed on Friday.

Vassilis Kikilias, the Greek minister of climate crisis and civil protection, told reporters: “During this time 667 fires erupted, that is more than 60 fires a day, almost all over the country. Unfortunately, the majority were ignited by human hand, either by criminal negligence or intent.

So, people were causing them, either intentionally or unintentionally. Obviously, the climate cultists are attempting to make this the fault of ‘climate change’ even with this knowledge, just like they attempted to make it all Your Fault before having any knowledge

He added: “The difference with other years were the weather conditions. Climate change, which yielded a historic and unprecedented heatwave, is here. There were very few days where the extreme weather was not combined with strong winds.”

So, let’s say it was a cool year. People still set the fires. A slight uptick in the global temperatures over 170 years is meaningless, except in Cult World. Heatwaves happen, and have always happened. There were massive heatwaves in the 1930’s. But, now there’s more buildings and infrastructure. There are more eco-loons who stop government from creating fire breaks and wilderness management, from clearing out dead brush.

The next three paragraphs of the article are on ‘climate change’, with the final two being rather important information on people killed by the arson, and people fleeing the arson. But, that information is unimportant to the cult.

Justice Alito To Whiny Congressional Democrats: Stay In Your Lane

By William Teach July 29, 2023 – 3:00 pm

In case you’ve missed it, wackadoodle Congressional Democrats and all their little minion have been whining about the Supreme Court and Demanding a code of ethics and other stuff (though, they didn’t say anything about Sotomayor’s sweetheart deals and such)

From the article

Justice Samuel Alito says Congress lacks the power to impose a code of ethics on the Supreme Court, making him the first member of the court to take a public stand against proposals in Congress to toughen ethics rules for justices in response to increased scrutiny of their activities beyond the bench.

“I know this is a controversial view, but I’m willing to say it. No provision in the Constitution gives them the authority to regulate the Supreme Court—period,” Alito said in an interview he gave to the Wall Street Journal opinion pages. An account of the interview, which the paper said took place in New York in early July, was published Friday.

Democrats last week pushed Supreme Court ethics legislation through a Senate committee, though the bill’s prospects in the full Senate are dim.

Look, the courts have their own code of ethics, but, if Congress is allowed to regulate SCOTUS, then they are no longer an independent branch of the federal government. There are checks and balances, there are ways to deal with serious criminal violations, but, the Court does not answer to Congress, especially partisan boobs attempting to create an issue where one doesn’t exist because the Court is very much Conservative leaning.

Since a goodly chunk of the Congress critters slurring Alito are lawyers, you’d think they’d know this. They do, but they do not care, nor do many of the peons having snit fits. Like AOC, who says Alito is calling himself a king, but should probably focus on her own ethics violations.
