Youngkin Wins Along With Plenty Of Republicans, Democrats Rage

By William Teach November 3, 2021 – 8:58 am

So far as I’ve seen, Terry MaCauliffe has refused to concede. I’m sure the “Republicans stole the election!” talk is already going on Twitter and other social media outlets, which will be deemed just fine by Liberal media outlets

Youngkin Beats McAuliffe, Clinching First Statewide Win In Virginia For Republicans Since 2009

Glenn Youngkin will be Virginia’s next governor after narrowly beating former Gov. Terry McAuliffe Tuesday night, making him the first Republican to win statewide in over a decade and ending Democrats’ total control over the legislative process held for nearly two years.

Youngkin led by just over two points when the Associated Press called the race early Wednesday, buoyed by record turnout in rural areas and an energized Republican base. He trailed McAuliffe in nearly every poll up until the final days of the race, when late momentum gave him the slimmest of leads in a state that President Joe Biden won by over 10 points just a year ago.

In addition to Youngkin, Republican Winsome Sears won the state’s race to be lieutenant governor, while Jason Miyares, also a Republican, led in the state’s attorney general race, respectively. Republicans also appear to have flipped six seats in the Virginia State House, a margin that, if it holds, would turn Democrats’ 10-seat majority into a 51-49 GOP majority.

Perhaps telling parents they have no say in the education of their kids was a Bad Idea. Especially after things like sexually explicit books in schools, a coverup of a gender confused boy sexually assaulting a girl was exposed, and so much more. If they didn’t have all those early voting days and mail in ballots, how much more might have been Youngkin’s win?

The race in NJ is extremely close, with Republican Jack Ciattarelli holding a small lead over incumbent Gov Phil Murphy, which rather shows Democrats will vote for a really bad governor simply because he’s a Democrat. In Minneapolis, where the George Floyd incident occurred, they shot down a referendum to replace the police department. Ilhan Omar is angry. There were all sorts of unexpected GOP wins in state and local races.

Meanwhile, MSNBC, which spent the evening going Full Moonbat, is, of course, blamestorming whites

Glenn Youngkin’s victory proves white ignorance is a powerful weapon

…

Ultimately, his campaign settled on a game plan that seemed to resonate deeply with white voters in Virginia: targeting school lesson plans that address inequality and social justice. Youngkin adopted the conservative strategy of falsely grouping these lesson plans under the label of “critical race theory,” and he promised to ban such teachings “on day one” if elected. Critical race theory is a college-level field of study that’s not taught in Virginia K-12 schools, but it’s become a catchall phrase for intellectually lazy people — many of them white — who want to stigmatize any discussion about American racism.

In the final weeks of his campaign, Youngkin focused almost exclusively on attacking lesson plans about inequality. He hosted multiple “Parents Matter” rallies, where attendees could gather to express outrage over school curricula. And last week, his campaign released an ad featuring a white mother who fought to have “Beloved,” Toni Morrison’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel about slavery, banned from her son’s school district.

The Youngkin campaign discovered that this contingent of angry, willfully ignorant white people was the key ingredient needed to elect a GOP governor in Virginia for the first time since 2009. We can expect more Republicans to try the same gambit as we inch closer to next year’s consequential midterm elections.

See? You’re a raaaaacist if you voted Youngkin. If you care about what’s being taught in school to your kids. Might not be the best idea if you want to win the 2022 mid-terms. And, Democrats have been pushing hard to teach CRT in Virginia K-12 schools. Even ABC noted that CRT was incorporated in the curriculum in Virginia.

Plenty of other freakouts, like

DNC chair Jaime Harrison said “It’s sad to see where the Republican Party is going because they have become a party of fascism and fear.” Fascism is apparently when a political party wants less government now.

Climate Cult: Archbishop Claims Doing Nothing About ‘Climate Change’ Worse Than Holocaust

By William Teach November 2, 2021 – 3:19 pm

The climate cult, which has invaded the Christian religion, is getting nuttier and nuttier. Is this from the Book Of Climate Revelations?

Archbishop Welby: Failure to Act on Climate Means ‘Infinitely Greater’ Genocide Than Holocaust

Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby sparked outrage when he claimed that politicians who fail to act on climate change will allow an “infinitely greater” genocide than the Holocaust and be judged “in far stronger terms” than those who appeased Nazi Germany.

Speaking at COP26, the de facto leader of the Church of England and British lawmaker, as a member of the House of Lords, said that politicians who do not adopt the green agenda will be “cursed” and that future generations “will speak of them in far stronger terms than we speak today of the politicians of the ’30s, of the politicians who ignored what was happening in Nazi Germany, because this will kill people all ’round the world for generations, and we will have no means of averting it.”

“That’s very strong language,” offered BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg, noting that he was “saying failure to act on climate change would be worse than people allowing genocide to happen” — perhaps in an effort to allow him on an opportunity to row back the audacious claim.

The woke clergyman merely doubled down, however, clarifying that climate change will “allow genocide on an infinitely greater scale” than the Holocaust.

“I’m not sure there’s grades of genocide but there’s width of genocide, and this will be genocide indirectly by negligence, recklessness, that will in the end come back to us, or to our children and grandchildren,” he asserted.

The Cult feels emboldened to make insane speeches like this, because almost no one calls them on it. Where’s the Archbishop in condemning all the Elites flying private jets to Glasgow, then seeing those jets flown away with no passengers to park elsewhere, because there’s no space at the airport? This is all just pure insanity.

Perhaps inevitably, the archbishop did feel the need to take to social media to apologise for these claims, tweeting that he “unequivocally apologise[d] for the words I used when trying to emphasise the gravity of the situation facing us at COP26.”

“It’s never right to make comparisons with the atrocities brought by the Nazis, and I’m sorry for the offence caused to Jews by these words,” he added.

So, he wasn’t really apologizing for what he said, just that he overdid the comparison. If he didn’t mean the words, he wouldn’t have written them in his speech. Perhaps he should spend more time tending to his flock rather than playing cult politician.

Who’s Up For Changing The Definition Of “Fully Vaccinated”?

By William Teach November 2, 2021 – 10:30 am

Did you get the vaccine? Took your 2 shots, waited the 14 days (or one shot, depending)? Think you’re safe? Not so fast!

Definition of ‘fully vaccinated’ could change, CDC chief says. Here’s what that means

If you’ve received a two-dose course of the Moderna or Pfizer COVID vaccines, or a one-and-done Johnson & Johnson shot, you’re considered by health officials to be fully vaccinated against the coronavirus.

For now.

But that could change as eligibility for booster shots continues to expand. Last week, COVID boosters were approved for Moderna recipients and all who got the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, and everyone can now choose their own brand of booster shot.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said at a news conference Friday that the agency “may need to update our definition of ‘fully vaccinated’ in the future” as boosters are becoming more widely available.

When would that happen, and what would it look like? Walensky had no further details, as she and other health experts acknowledge that the situation is evolving.

“We’re doing an experiment in real time,” said Warner Greene, a virologist and senior investigator at the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco. “We don’t know how to optimally use the vaccines yet. What we do know is that two shots are not preventing infections as efficiently after six months.”

Yet, let’s force people to choose between their jobs or not taking a vaccination they are hesitant on which doesn’t work as well as they thought.

Robert Siegel, a professor of microbiology and immunology at Stanford University, said the term “fully vaccinated” is a policy concept, not an immunological one.

“Policies change and the designation of who is ‘fully vaccinated’ will continue to change,” he wrote in an email. “Ideally, these changes will be based on new data on the durability or diminution of the immune response over time.”

In fairness, there are many vaccines which require more than one or two shots. Smallpox is a series of 5 shots over a few years. You most likely do not remember because you were very young. But, really, Siegel is correct, this is political. Next up we will see the politicians requiring booster shots to be considered fully vaccinated and allowed to keep your job and participate in society.

Yes, I took the booster. Why? Because I want to protect myself. That’s it. No other reason. If someone doesn’t want to take it, that’s on them. I weighed the risks, and came down on the side of vaccination and booster. Other people can make their own decisions. I don’t want them forced.

St. Greta And Her Acolytes Protest Outside COP26

By William Teach November 2, 2021 – 8:17 am

What are they protesting? The Cult of Climastrology Elites are working to hammer out deals that will Do Something about the climate crisis scam. You’d think St. Greta and her Comrades would be happy

Greta Thunberg and her allies lambaste U.N. Climate Change Conference from just outside

The security perimeter around the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, known as COP26, is ironclad. It’s surrounded by metal gates, with each point of entry guarded by armed police in yellow vests, and registered attendees must show proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken that day and a government-issued ID card, in addition to their credentials to share space with dignitaries and world leaders. On Sunday, the discovery of an unaccompanied bag led to an hourlong lockdown in which no one could enter.

Wait, walls/fences work? Huh

Across the street, however, or in this case right across the River Clyde, is a world apart. And that’s where a hundred activists from Greta Thunberg’s Fridays for Future youth movement and the loosely aligned group Extinction Rebellion gathered in a park to mock the dignitaries and leaders assembled inside for what they consider to be empty rhetoric and inadequate action to combat climate change.

“This COP26 is just like the previous COPs,” said Thunberg, an 18-year-old from Sweden, to the mostly young crowd in the park. “Inside COP, they are just politicians and people in power pretending to take our future seriously, pretending to take the present seriously of the people who are being affected already today by the climate crisis. Change is not going to come from in there.

“That is not leadership. This is leadership!” Thunberg proclaimed, referring to the scruffy activists waving placards with slogans like “Planet over profit” and “This is a climate emergency.”

Many also held signs that were intended as a warning to the government representatives in Glasgow for the conference, with phrases such as “We are watching you” and “What will be your wake up call?”

“We say, ‘No more blah blah blah,’” Thunberg said. “No more exploitation of people and the planet.” She led the crowd in a chant of “What do we want? Climate justice! When do we want it? Now!”

So they want more Government, more taxation, more taking away freedom, liberty, and choice? Let’s start with the kiddies, see how they like it. And with the Extinction Rebellion nutters.

How many are wearing commercially produced clothes, many which are shipped from China and such on fossil fueled ships and planes? Same with their smartphones? Their backpacks? Their shoes?

“What we need is we need action now. We don’t need it in 2060, we don’t need it in 2050,” she continued. “We need it before 2030, and that has to happen now. We’re at the point where the climate is tipping into catastrophe.”

Yeah, we’ve been hearing that since the 90’s. So far, nope

Laura Amherst, from Brighton, England, wore a mesh bodysuit that left little to the imagination. It was dappled in skull-and-crossbones images, intended to signify the threat of potentially deadly toxic pollution. Amherst is a well-known activist in the U.K. with a dual mission: to urge action against climate change and to oppose sexism and combat body shaming. “It’s about raising the visibility of this message and making it more accessible to different groups that wouldn’t necessarily pay attention to the climate crisis,” she told Yahoo News.

She’s the woman who has been posing with just pasties on during XR protests, so, it’s more about showing off her fake boobs and being an “Influencer”, trying to profit. I can’t find any photos of the mesh, but, here she is the other day

“When we talk about climate change, we’re talking about basic human rights, like the right to clean water, to sanitation and even the right to life,” Becker said in her prepared remarks. “Since we don’t have a vote in there, we’re saying what we want out here. Our eyes are on COP26: Do not let us down.”

Sounds like they are worried about real environmental and other issues. Perhaps they should focus on them instead of the climate scam.

Pearl Clutching Credentialed Media Very Upset Over “Let’s Go Brandon”

By William Teach November 2, 2021 – 7:59 am

You had to know that, suddenly, all the media would lose their minds over the “Let’s Go Brandon” call

Anti-Biden rallying cry ‘Lets Go Brandon’ causes mainstream media meltdown

Corporate media and liberal reporters have come together, united in a common cause as everyone from allegedly neutral reporters to far-left pundits have gone nuclear in an attempt to shut down three words: Let’s Go Brandon.

The phrase became an internet sensation last month after an NBC reporter at a NASCAR Xfinity Series race incorrectly reported that fans in the stands were chanting “Let’s Go Brandon” following a victory by driver Brandon Brown, when they were really shouting, “F–k Joe Biden!”

Memes, jokes, and comments immediately began to spread across the internet posted by users mocking NBC’s coverage during the interview. The “F–k Joe Biden!” chants, which began at some large sporting events across the country as the president’s poll numbers sagged, have now been replaced in some venues with “Let’s Go Brandon” chants.

But the chant’s popularity has infuriated the left, resulting in an onslaught of angry tweets, columns and hot takes from liberal pundits. NPR labeled the term “vulgar” and CNN’s Edward-Issac Dovere was so offended by the phrase that he called it “an inside joke telling the president of the United States to perform a sexual act on himself.”

Washington Post reporters Ashley Parker and Carissa Wolf wrote on what they considered “vitriol” from Biden critics in a piece titled “Biden’s critics hurl increasingly vulgar taunts.”

The article claimed, “The current eruption of anti-Biden signs and chants, however, is on another level, far more vulgar and widespread” than anything seen in previous administrations.

That piece mentions several other outlets who are losing their minds, but, the Washington Post is an interesting one, since they published cartoons by Ted Rall, such as this one saying Hitler was better than Bush. He had plenty of others. How about the UK Guardian’s Charlie Brooker calling for someone to assassinate Bush43 if he won re-election? There was plenty of assassination chic, as Michelle Malkin termed it, during Bush’s terms, which reappeared during the Trump years.

There was plenty of nasty invective thrown towards Bush and Trump, including the F word. Here’s hundreds of artists coming together to say Fuck Trump. Here they are chanting Fuck Trump at the World Cup. And here’s Eminem leading a Fuck Trump chant at a concert. I could give you tons of examples of Bush and Trump derangement syndrome, but, you get the point. Where were the pearl clutchers then? Generally just reporting it as “news”

Here’s disgraced journalist Dan Rather, who gave up all his journalistic cred to publish a fake hit piece against Bush43 because of BDS

A Party Embraces Vulgarity

I have tried for some time to avoid commenting on a topic that I felt should be so far beneath our political discourse that to give it the oxygen of attention would be to play into the strategic hopes of those who are seeking to debase our democracy. But as Yoda, the wise sage of Star Wars, might say if he was trying to fight those who have turned to the “dark side” of our national polity, ignore it no longer I can.

The issue at hand can succinctly be summed up in three words: “Let’s go Brandon.” If you have no idea what I am talking about, consider yourself fortunate. For reasons too mundane to fully outline here, “Let’s go Brandon” has become a favorite chant and rallying cry for many Republicans as a stand-in for another three-word chant that you may also have heard : “F- Joe Biden,” with F-, for the purposes of decorum in this newsletter, standing for a four-letter vulgarity.  Search for “Let’s Go Brandon,” and you will start finding it everywhere – all over social media, a song with a ton of downloads on iTunes, at political rallies, and among snickering Republicans in Washington.

Apparently, Dan forgets all the Crazy Moonbattery against Bush. And the people in his administration, particularly the blacks, even more against Condi Rice. There’s a cartoon somewhere in the archives (and probably still saved deep in the photo files, maybe at my Photobucket), that was published in a mainstream outlet of Rice give oral to Bush. It’s really, really bad. We remember the invective thrown Bush’s way. We remember the Democrats wanting to lose in Iraq because Bush was president. We just witnessed four years of disgusting stuff towards Trump, Melania, and their son. The same media had zero problems with this. So, they can go pound sand.

Hot Take: Parent’s Rights Is Code For White Race Politics Or Something

By William Teach November 1, 2021 – 10:30 am

Apparently, Juan Williams doesn’t think black parents give a damn over what their kids are being taught

Juan Williams: ‘Parents’ rights’ is code for white race politics

After white supremacists spilled blood in defense of keeping up Confederate statues in 2017, the GOP candidate for governor of Virginia, Ed Gillespie, said the monuments should stay up as a matter of heritage and history.

His TV advertising featured threatening images of Latino gangs, labeled illegal immigrants, involved in murder and rape.

The racially loaded ‘Culture Wars’ campaign, straight from then-President Trump’s playbook, gave Gillespie a push but he ultimately lost the race to Democrat Ralph Northam.

Now Virginia Republicans are back with a new and improved ‘Culture Wars’ campaign for 2021. The closing argument is once again full of racial division — but this time it is dressed up as a defense of little children.

The rallying cry is ‘Parents’ Rights.’

Well, that’s a huge jump of logic. And, yes, Latino gangs like MS-13 do tend to be mostly illegal aliens.

It is a campaign to stop classroom discussion of Black Lives Matter protests or slavery because it could upset some children, especially white children who might feel guilt.

Sigh. No, it’s not. At least in terms of slavery. It’s a matter of not trying to make kids feel like shit for something that happened over 150 years ago that they had nothing to do with. Not having a syllabus that tears down non-black people for things they weren’t involved in. Oh, and not teach kids unnecessary things, like that boys are actually girls, that anal sex is awesome to 3rd graders, that they should read sexually explicit books that cannot even be read aloud at school board meetings, and more. Parents just want the basics taught, not turn the schools into a full on indoctrination center.

Unlike their earlier defense of Confederate monuments, the ‘Parents’ Rights’ campaign message at first glance looks to have zero to do with race.

Because it doesn’t. Because you’ll see black parents protesting, along with Asian and Latino. But, of course, in Juan’s World, it does

Terry McAuliffe, the Democratic candidate, calls the Republican message a “racist dog whistle.”

“Youngkin’s closing message of book banning and silencing esteemed Black authors is a racist dog whistle designed to gin up support from the most extreme elements of his party — mainly his top endorser and surrogate, Donald Trump,” McAuliffe said in a statement.

These were the same people who defended Ralph Northam and his blackface photos, posing with a person in a KKK outfit. But, this is the way they all work: make everything and everyone who Disagrees with them raaaaacist.

Critical Race Theory  — broadly, a focus on racial disparities as a fact of American life — is not explicitly taught in Virginia’s public schools or anywhere in American public schools. But Republicans nationwide have made it a boogeyman to excite racial divisions and get their base to the polls.

Yes, it is taught, and they’re trying to teach it in other places. And, the irony here is that it was and still is Democratic Party policies that create those racial disparities. Before the Civil Rights era it was overt racism from Democrats, after it’s covert ones, keeping them down on the plantations in Dem run big cities, leaving them behind.

BTW, does Juan actually think this argument will work, calling parents who are concerned over what their kids are being taught and exposed to, ie, transgenders in their little girl’s bathrooms, locker rooms, and showers, exposing themselves and even raping them, racists?

Young Climate Cultists Travel To Glasgow To Say This Is “The Last Chance For Humanity”

By William Teach November 1, 2021 – 8:08 am

It’s rather amusing that all these youths have allowed themselves to be so indoctrinated that they are actually advocating for government to take their money and run their lives. Also, how many took long fossil fueled flights?

Young activists call Glasgow climate conference ‘last chance for humanity’

There are over 14,000 kilometers separating the African nation of Malawi from the United States. A direct airplane between the two would take an estimated 16 hours, and, as well as physical distance, the lands are also culturally miles apart.

But one thing that unites both countries, and many other nations around the world, is having young climate change activists fighting for their voices to be heard.

Some of those very campaigners have traveled to Glasgow, Scotland, to attend the U.N. Climate Change Conference.

Yahoo News spoke with some of the young changemakers to discuss their hopes at the landmark event.

Nicki Becker (from Argentina) became a climate change activist after seeing a video of young people striking from schools across Europe in 2019, inspired by Greta Thunburg’s worldwide movement Fridays for Future.

“Nobody was talking about the climate crisis in my country, which is why I started to become a climate activist,” Becker said. “I thought, why are young people like me striking for something that I didn’t hear anything about?”

Maybe no one was talking about it because they know it is a load of mule fritters and they have real concerns in their lives?

Now Becker, who is part of the Argentinian version of Fridays for Future (Jóvenes por el clima Argentina) is attending COP26 and explained her reasons for wanting her voice to be heard by officials and negotiators.

Did she take a sailing ship, or a fossil fueled flight?

For Chifundo Zingunde (from Malawe), successful negotiations at the conference hold a different meaning.

“I’m pretty sure COP26 will be the last chance for the history of humanity,” said Zingunde, who is unable to travel to Glasgow but is participating in talks virtually.

Whatever. They say this every year. It’s a doomsday cult.

Then you have Sophia Kianni, 19, United States, who took a fossil fueled flight to Glasgow. As did Kevin Mtai, 26, Kenya. And Jon Bonifacio, 24, Philippines

Bonifacio said he dropped plans to study as a doctor to pursue climate activism full-time after finding out that the hospital he would potentially work in could be submerged under the sea level in less than 30 years.

Idiots.
