Our Lying Idiot Media Really Is That Dumb

Broke-ness follows wokeness because it’s invariably the incompetent, lazy, corrupt and otherwise failed institutions that radicalize to avoid doing their jobs. From the federal government to corporate monopolies to financial gimmicks like FTX to the media to massive charities, institutional wokeness is a red flag that an organization is incompetent or a scam. As a rule of thumb, the less innovative and functional an organization is, the more likely it is to disguise its innate worthlessness through virtue signaling. Executives go woke when they have no idea how to move a company forward. Employees who don’t want to do their jobs descend into identity politics and demand that the

Our Devastating Education Schemes
2 replies
Little did I know that when I was teaching in the 1990s and “multicultural education” became all the rage, that it was just the beginning of an onslaught of radical endeavors that shows no sign of abating. As 2022 winds down, let’s take a glimpse at a small sampling of the schemes that have been inflicted on America’s children over the past few years.
Critical math
As a former teacher, I loved teaching math because there was clearly a right and wrong answer. Feelings, opinions and political dogma didn’t matter. Now however, with the ascendance of racialism, if you insist on right and wrong answers, you just might be considered

Reinventing the Root of All Evil

What is money?
Money is perhaps one of humanity’s most important inventions. But what is it really? Credit? A medium of exchange? A store of value? All of the above? On Dec. 8, 2021, FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried told the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services how digital assets could be that and more. In the language of the testimony, digital assets were a “financial innovation” that could improve — and possibly replace — older instruments. Sam Bankman-Fried was before Congress to praise regulation, not to bury it. “Why would the titan of crypto want regulation?” asked the Washington Examiner. “Part of it is that big guys like regulation

for assault weapons ban, says the votes
aren’t there 11 replies
Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., threw cold water on President Biden's hopes to pass an assault weapons ban during the lame duck Congress on Sunday.
Murphy argued that the votes for such a bill are "probably not" there for Democrats, despite the president's push to enact a ban following a spate of shootings in recent weeks. The 50-50 split in Congress means Democrats would need 10 Republicans to defect and vote for the ban in order to overcome a filibuster.
"I’m glad that President Biden is gonna be pushing us to take a vote on an assault weapons ban," he told CNN’s Dana Bash. "The House has already passed it.
It’s a survival story that appears to be made for the movies. The Carnival cruise ship Valor reported on Thanksgiving day that a passenger had gone overboard. His sister reported him missing around 8 a.m. but hadn’t seen him since he left a bar to use the restroom around 11 p.m. the previous evening.
At that point, the U.S. Coast Guard got involved. The ship turned around and retraced its route hoping to find the unidentified man. Eventually, Valor continued on its way with no sign of the man.
The Coast Guard conducted an intensive search, alerting all vessels in the area to the emergency. The Coast Guard resources included
Your Evening Break: Stupid Criminal Tricks

Yes, the world is going to hell. You can cut and paste that headline onto almost every factor of your life. The economy is down, inflation is up, crime is rampant, the government is out of control, and, right after Christmas, you get to worry about taxes.
Be that as it may, be glad you are not Michael Conley Loyd, a 30-year-old resident of the Show Me State. He recently pleaded guilty to a federal charge of bank robbery after stealing less than $1,000 from a bank. Back in July, Loyd strolled into a Bank of America branch in Springfield, MO, according to The Blaze.
Joe Biden is in Nantucket for Thanksgiving, staying at the home of one of his billionaire friends.
White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain tweeted out a “list of accomplishments” of the Biden administration that’s part comedy part tragedy. The comedy comes from Klain’s purpose in posting the talking points: to use when “that Uncle comes at you about POTUS.”

The tragedy comes from what Klain believes to be an “accomplishment.”
I think it’s weird that the Whitehouse spends taxpayer’s money to tell people how
President Biden turned 80 on Sunday. That’s the oldest any president has ever been. Reuters ran a story noting that a lot of Americans don’t think this is such a good thing, especially not as they look forward to 2024. "Some Americans have concerns about the advanced age of the two most likely 2024 candidates.
While 71% of Democrats think Biden is “mentally sharp and able to deal with challenges,” 46% say he may not be up to the challenge of running in 2024, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll taken Nov. 8 and 9. About a quarter of Republicans, 26%, think Trump may not be up to 2024
YouTube: purveyor of disinformation

Matt Taibbi–a former Rolling Stone reporter who was red pilled some time ago–is going on a tear about YouTube. It is glorious to behold.
A bit of background: Taibbi published a video produced by Matt Orfalea detailing the misinformation campaign used to discredit the Hunter Biden laptop just prior to the 2020 election. Every Mainstream Media outlet pushed the Narrative™ that the New York Post’s reporting on the laptop was simply a repetition of Russian misinformation. The FBI encouraged Facebook to censor the video–that is straight from Mark Zuckerberg–and all social media outlets followed the diktat from the Establishment™ to downplay and debunk the story as false.
West Virginia Hates Sen. Manchin Now
19 replies
Senator Manchin’s dirty ‘Inflation Increase Act’ deal, its betrayal of coal country, army of IRS agents, and inflationary spending has paid off some of his backers and made Bill Gates very happy.
Gates was described as having personally lobbied Senator Manchin and Schumer in “anticipation of a rare moment in which significant federal dollars might be secured for the clean-energy transition.” Billions of those dollars, ripped out of the hands of truck drivers, veterans and small businessmen, will have been “secured” for Gates and his ventures.
The Microsoft founder was described as having “tapped into a relationship with Manchin that he’d cultivated for at least three years”.
When I wrote about the climate “loss and damage pact” yesterday, I noted that Climate Czar John Kerry distanced himself from the term “reparations.”
The US and other developed nations have long sought to avoid such provisions that could open them up to legal liability and lawsuits from other countries. And in previous public remarks, US Climate Envoy John Kerry had said loss and damage was not the same thing as climate reparations.
“‘Reparations’ is not a word or a term that has been used in this context,” Kerry said on a recent call with reporters earlier this month. He added: “We have always said that it is imperative
Advocates of wind and solar energy have argued that the cost of those energy sources would decline over time as they are more widely adopted. That never made any sense, and it has not proved true. In fact, the cost of both wind and solar energy is destined to continue rising sharply as the massive quantities of materials they require become more expensive as a result of increasing demand, driven by ill-advised (the politest adjective I can think of) government mandates and subsidies.
In fact, the cost of electricity generated by wind and solar is already skyrocketing. My colleague Isaac Orr reproduced this chart at American Experiment.

Don’t be fooled. In the promotional interviews for her new book, The Light We Carry, Michelle Obama insists that the book is simply her personal “toolkit” about how she deals with the challenges of “uncertain times.” No, The Light We Carry is not a self-help book. It is Michelle’s crafty attempt to position herself to be the Democrat nominee for president in 2024. In fact, it is Michelle’s second autobiography, a follow up to her wildly successful 2018 memoir, Becoming. As it would have been awkward for Michelle to write a second self-promotional autobiography entitled “Becoming Part II,” the new book is released under the ruse of a self-help guide.
People around the country are looking at the Georgia Senate runoff between Democrat Raphael Warnock and Republican Hershel Walker. Lots of people wondering what is going on. Well, last night the Republican party of Georgia gave an excellent example of what it means to be Republican in Georgia.
Republican Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan appeared on CNN to share his opinion of Republican candidate Hershel Walker. As Republican Duncan outlined during the interview he stood in line for an hour, took a ballot (snip) and then decided he could just not vote for a Republican in Georgia, so he turned around and walked back out without voting.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Wednesday evening blamed Americans for record-high inflation.
It isn’t Joe Biden’s fault for spending trillions of dollars in the last year-and-a-half.
It isn’t the Democrats’ fault for passing trillions in spending through the reconciliation (no GOP votes needed).
The real reason for inflation is because Americans ‘splurging’ on goods.

funnels workers’ retirement funds into

The Biden administration has quietly finalized a rule allowing employers to funnel workers’ 401(k) funds into investments that support woke causes that address issues such as climate change and diversity.
The Labor Department approved the rule last week, just two days before the Thanksgiving break. It will affect roughly 150 million workers and $10 trillion in assets covered under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
The rule says asset managers and retirement plan administrators should consider environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) factors when selecting investments.
President Biden all but declared himself as the greatest president in America’s history on Wednesday.
"I tell you what," the president said. "No one’s ever done as much as president as this administration’s doing. Period." Biden spoke during the White House Tribal Nations Summit, which was to feature new announcements and efforts to put new policies in place that support Tribal communities. The summit, which takes place at the Department of the Interior, gives tribal leaders the opportunity to engage with top U.S. officials on ways to strengthen nation-to-nation relationships and ensure indigenous communities endure for years to come.
As Biden spoke during the opening day
A reparations committee in California has suggested that descendants of slaves in the state could be compensated $223,200 each for 'housing discrimination'.
The nine-member Reparations Task Force was formed by California Governor Gavin Newsom as part of the country's largest ever effort to address reparations for slavery.
A focus of the California task force has been 'housing discrimination' - it has been estimated that it would cost around $569billion to compensate the 2.5 million Black Californians for setbacks between 1933 and 1977, according to the New York Times.
That is more than California's $512.8billion expenditure in 2021 - which included funding for schools, hospitals, universities, highways, policing and corrections.
House Democrats might release former President Donald Trump’s tax returns, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said on Dec. 1.
The decision would be up to Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal (D-Mass.) and members of the panel, Pelosi said.
“That’s a judgment they’re going to have to make,” she told reporters during a briefing in Washington.
The judgment would be in keeping with the purpose of acquiring the returns, which Neal has said is examining the way the IRS audits presidents and considering legislative reform to the program, Pelosi added.
President Joe Biden was slammed by critics for suggesting that the public didn’t know “what the hell a supply chain was.”
During a rally in Michigan, Biden claimed that Americans didn’t understand what a supply chain was “10 years ago,” and it wasn’t until the Covid-19 pandemic that brought it to people’s attention that it began to affect the economy.
“10 years ago, how many of you knew what the hell a supply chain was? No, I’m serious!” Biden shouted at the crowd.
Trying to save face after insinuating that Americans are too dumb to understand how a supply chain works, the president then asked reporters
This morning at 8 a.m., New York Times publisher A.G. Sulzberger and CEO Meredith Kopit Levien received a letter from Bill Baker, unit chair of the Times guild, that was signed by more than 1,000 employees. Subject line: “Enough. If there is no contract by Dec. 8, we are walking out.”
Vladimir Putin has fallen down stairs at his official residence and soiled himself while continuing to suffer from cancer, a Telegram channel which claims links to his bodyguards has suggested.

Putin landed on his coccyx, fell down five steps, then rolled on to his side and slid down two more.
Democratic Arizona Secretary of State and Gov.-elect Katie Hobbs’ top deputy threatened the Mohave County Board of Supervisors with prosecution if it didn’t certify her election results before a Monday deadline, according to emails and documents reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Arizona State Elections Director Kori Lorick wrote several letters and emails to members of the board, warning them of criminal charges if the refused to certify the results in time. The letters included threats of lawsuits against the members for “nonfeasance,” as well, per the emails.
“The Secretary of State did contact our County and cited A.R.S. Section 16-1010 as a statute that could be used to prosecute [the
An actual giant who obviously likes his cheese and wine, lost it when a group of climate change nuts blocked a busy road, causing massive traffic.
The purpose of these disturbances is to force the government to implement an energy renovation plan commensurate with the climate emergency. “This summer there were 11,000 deaths due to heat waves, what will it be like this winter? warns a young activist.
So faced with this reality, they chose to block the road.
