The Claremont Institute's Center for the American Way of Life on Tuesday unveiled a database to track funding to Black Lives Matter and related organizations. "This online dashboard tracks corporate contributions and pledges to the BLM movement and related causes," the group announced. "BLM and its manifold extensions engineered one of the most successful grifts in American history, to the tune of $82.9 billion." The database is searchable by contributor, recipients, and contributor location. Athletic wear company Adidas gave $120 million to various organizations that promote black and Latino groups. Another top-of-the-list contribution is a $600,000 donation to the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund from 343 Industries, the developers of the hit video  CORRECION*

BLM and related fraudsters seem to have received enough assets to retire the federal deficit in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, those assets seem to have fallen into a bottomless pit.

If Adidas didn't give $120 million dollars to BLM maybe they could lower the price of their damned shoes, and help us all.

And #6, innocent Officer Derek Chauvin's life has been ruined as he spends the rest of it in jail. "The Man" is finally behind bars as "justice" for all the blacks "unjustly" incarcerated. Now tossed away and forgotten by all. But, BLM got their loot. The Wokesters got to virtue signal and their vicarage. The bankers with no financial experience sold their shares before the collapse. The Feds will swoop in to make the depositors whole and the taxpayers will get the bill. The fundamental transformation of America continues apace.

We criticize the younger generation for being such politically correct bullies but that generation is not funding these violent and anti-American divisive groups. Without the money from these woke corporations that flows into these organizations, they would not be flush with cash as they are. It takes a lot of money to front rioting and looting. The partnership of the younger generation’s zealotry and these corporate CEO’s massive funding is doing immeasurable damage to the country. By buying the products and using the services these corporations provide, we are enabling them to funnel millions to anarchists who hate the country. It is nigh to impossible to boycott all these traitors, but I do my best. It has been effective with some companies but the vast majority not so much. It’s frustrating but life has become one huge frustration. I honestly do not understand how any thinking person could fall for the garbage the left puts out there, but they do and we all suffer because of it. The complete surrender by these corporations to violent woke mobs has made life in this country miserable, and it is a wonder anyone of them can sleep at night knowing the havoc they have funded.

The funny part is that those corporations still had their locations burned to the ground, their people beaten on the street with ball bats, had merchandise stolen by roving bands of "teens" and lost at least half of their customers due to their "wokeness." We know who they are and what their products are. All they can do now is hire DEI people and hope that it all somehow works out. It won't.

I am so glad Claremont is calling out the corporate rats that subjected us to the BLM scam. I was even receiving emails from corporate CEO's pushing this scam. They carefully prevented the public from responding, and letting them know what they really thought about BLM, their emails, and their executive performance.

Climate war: Green Handouts Shaped SVB Biz “If government funds it, they will come,” snarks The Wall Street Journal’s Kimberley A. Strassel. “That’s one overlooked story line” in Silicon Valley Bank’s collapse. In recent years, SVB’s clients have “skewed in one direction,” including 1,150 in the climate-tech and sustainability sector. The bank provided services to startups that weren’t profitable and would’ve had a harder time getting loans elsewhere, i.e., “subprime firms” — knowing the federal government was offering “handouts” to such companies. Congress’ $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill, for instance, “was a starting gun for a clean-tech frenzy,” making “hundreds of billions” available.

Needless to say, I don’t often write about such things as healthy diets and lifestyles — which is not to say I don’t adhere to both — but when the World Health Organization calls on member governments to pass strict limitations on what I can eat and how much of it, it gets my attention — and should get yours, as well. Again, my stance, particularly in this case, shouldn’t be confused with opposition to the current culprit in the spotlight: salt. Specifically, excessive consumption of salt. While I agree in principle with the notion, I don’t agree that it’s the job of the federal government to look

Whitmer banned stores larger than 50,000 square feet from selling paint and home-improvement supplies, as well as advertising for “nonessential” goods.

Another so-called “conspiracy theory” appears to be coming true — this time, regarding voting and the 2024 elections. A coalition comprised of more than 50 left-wing organizations — including AARP, the ACLU, the Freedom From Religion Foundation, the League of Women Voters, and the NAACP — is pushing the Biden administration to increase voter registration and turnout among new immigrants and those who are currently in federal custody awaiting their trials ahead of the all-important 2024 elections.

CNN used misleading data from the Gun Violence Archive to claim Monday “the U.S. has surpassed 100 mass shootings in 2023.” CNN noted, “America reached the grim number by the first week of March.” Both CNN and the Gun Violence Archive departed from the standard definition for mass shootings, which the Rand Corporation observed as being derived from the FBI’s 1980s definition of a “mass murderer” of an individual who “kills four or more people in a single incident (not including himself).” But for CNN and the Gun Violence Archive, an incident with no fatalities is still a mass shooting. This means labels like drive-by shootings, gang hits

A report released by Ireland’s Central Statistics Office (CSO) on Friday has revealed that “Muhammad” has risen to become the most popular name for newborn babies in one of the country’s major cities. The statistic sees Ireland join the likes of France, England, Sweden, and many other European countries, which have all seen the popularity of the name surge amid record immigration from Islamic countries over the last two-to-three decades. It now appears that Ireland is on the same path as its European neighbours as it pursues mass migration policies,

The United States Attorney in Washington sent a letter this week to the chief justice for DC’s federal court system stating that prosecutors overseen by US Attorney General Merrick Garland may bring between 700 and 1,200 new individuals into the justice system, according to Bloomberg News. The staggering figure represents approximately a doubling of prosecutions sought in connection with the event where supporters of President Donald Trump entered the Capitol in an attempt to disrupt proceedings certifying President Joe Biden as winner of the 2020 election.

This week, a professor at Loyola University in Chicago claimed that organized pantries in people’s homes are rooted in “racism and sexism.” Dr. Jenna Drenten, an associate professor of marketing at Loyola University, made the remarks in a piece for the Conversation, where she slammed the trend of people posting videos of their styled, organized pantries on the platform TikTok. According to Drenton, maintaining a clean, organized home equates to “sexist” and “racist” behavior, because most people who post “pantry porn” are white women (via the Conversation): Cleanliness has historically been used as a cultural gatekeeping mechanism to reinforce status distinctions based on a vague understanding of “niceness”:

Former Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams has floated the idea of running for office again after her last two failed campaigns, but some state Democrats are ready for her to move on, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Abrams‘ 2022 campaign outraised her rival, Republican Georgia Gov.

Despite her 2018 and 2022 losses, Abrams has not ruled out a third run for governor, prompting worry from some Georgia Democrats, according

Donald Trump's call for Americans to "protest", after claiming he will be "arrested on Tuesday", has sparked an angry reaction online, with commentators comparing it to the rhetoric used ahead of the January 6 2021 attack on Congress. Speculation has been growing for weeks that Trump is about to be indicted by the Manhattan district attorney's office, for allegedly breaching campaign finance laws to arrange a payment of $130,000 in hush money to adult movie star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 presidential election. On January 6 2021 hundreds of Trump supporters stormed Congress in a bid to stop Joe Biden's 2020 presidential election result from being certified. In the ensuing mayhem,
