“What happened to you?” It’s a question I get a lot on Twitter. “When did you become so far right?” “Why have you become a white supremacist, transphobic, misogynistic eugenicist?” Or, of course: “See! I told you who he really was! Just take the hood off, Sully!” It’s trolling, mainly. And it’s a weapon for some in the elite to wield against others in the kind of emotional blackmail spiral that was first pioneered on elite college campuses. But it’s worth answering, a year after I was booted from New York Magazine for my unacceptable politics. Because it seems to...

When Wokes and Racists Actually Agree on Everything. Many of us have been pointing this out for years.

But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them. 1 Samuel 18:16 After getting banned for life from a Best Buy for questioning the effectiveness of the mask you have to realize the mask is simply a virtue signal. Anyone who wears a mask cares about people and is a good person while anyone who does not is not. This is the basic symbol of liberalism which is wearing a mask means you are willing to sacrifice for the good of the community. It says you are willing to put the community above...

With a staggering depth of 60 meters (196 feet), the pool, part of the new Deep Dive Dubai attraction — has stolen the record from Poland's Deepspot, which has a depth of over 45 meters (148 feet). The Deep Dive Dubai pool is filled with 14 million liters of fresh water — the volume of six Olympic-sized swimming pools — and is at least four times bigger than any other diving pool in the world. Guinness awarded it the "Deepest swimming pool for diving" title on June 27. Water temperature is maintained at 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit), a...

California plans to require masks for all students in the fall despite guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that says vaccinated students and teachers don’t need to wear them amid proper physical distancing. State health officials said the requirement will allow for full-time in-person learning and for all students to be treated the same, whether they’re vaccinated or not. Not all schools are able to accommodate three feet of social distancing as the CDC recommends, state Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly said. The CDC's new guidance says that masks should be worn if...

Hospitals represented by the association argue that existing seismic standards are too costly, are in some ways unnecessary and that their industry needs more time to recover from massive financial losses during the pandemic. In a letter to legislative leaders late last month, the association claimed that even with federal aid, California hospitals lost $8 billion in 2020 caring for COVID-19 patients and expect to lose another $2.2 billion this year. Existing law requires that by 2030, every hospital building is capable of operating following an earthquake

The city of Charlottesville, Virginia, officially removed its statues of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee and Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson on Saturday. Viewing areas for the removal of the statues were erected so that bystanders could watch cranes lift the statues from their plinth blocks; the process was nearly complete just before 9 a.m. Photos and videos posted to social media show a crowd gathered to watch the process on Saturday morning. Charlottesville Mayor Nikuyah Walker spoke at Saturday's gathering, calling the removal "one small step forward" in an effort to dismantle White supremacy, according to VPM reporter Ben Paviour....

Over the past few months I have been writing analysis on a planned crisis war game organized by the World Economic Forum called "Cyber Polygon." The event will be held this week on July 9th, and it's allegedly designed to simulate a massive cyberattack that somehow disrupts the global supply chain, or at the very least disrupts the supply chain of multiple large economies. Why am I so interested in this war game? Well, many of my readers will recall that the last major simulation the WEF and the Bill And Melinda Gates Foundation held was Event 201, a global...

Team U.S.A. swimmer Michael Andrew informed the press that he refused to take any of the coronavirus vaccines ahead of the Tokyo Olympic games. He explained his reasoning for not getting vaccinated: “I didn’t want to put anything in my body that I didn’t know how I would potentially react to,” the swimmer said. “As an athlete on the elite level, everything we do is very calculated. For me in the training cycle, especially leading up to trials, I didn’t want to risk any days out because we do know that there are periods where getting the vaccine, you have...

Today marks 16 months since the institution of the infamous “Flatten the Curve,” AKA The Deep State’s Plot to Drive Us Crazy, Make Us Stupid, and Take Over the World (in order to make the world safe for China and/or the Deep State and/or New World Order cabal to take it over). Here in my neck of the woods, July 6th, the day after many people had off for Independence Day, was the date by which many people at many offices were supposed to return to their cubicles from having been able to wear bunny slippers to work for the...

WASHINGTON, Tuesday, July 9. As the right section of the Rhode Island Light Battery was drilling on the grounds near the encampment of the Mozart Regiment of New-York, early this morning, the cartridges in the limber chest of the second piece exploded, killing Corporal N.T. MORSE, Jr., and private WE. E. BOURN; seriously wounding E.R. FREEMAN, and slightly wounding RICHARD THORNLEY and EDWIN E. WEEKS. The remains of the dead will be sent to Providence this afternoon. The cause of the ignition of the powder is unknown. A report prevails that it was in consequence of the explosion of a...

Almost without exception, the architects of the Sexual Revolution have proven to be reckless hedonists and, in many cases, sex criminals who took their theories of pelvic liberation to horrifying but logical conclusions. It is long past time that we re-examined the history of our cultural transformation in light of these facts. Alfred Kinsey was a voracious sado-masochistic bisexual who shot illegal porn movies in his attic. Marriage-hopping Margaret Mead also had an affair with a female colleague. Hugh Hefner was a notorious pervert with an alleged fascination with bestiality. And it has been long known that Michel Foucault, the...

The Texas legislature began an overtime special session this week to address a slate of priority issues outlined by Republican Gov. Greg Abbott, including a renewed effort to address "election integrity." On Saturday, both chambers will hold overlapping hearings with testimony regarding new bills from the House and Senate that seek to overhaul the state's voting and election practices. During a press conference Thursday, Texas state Rep. Armando Walle said "every option is on the table" for Democrats to mobilize against the GOP-backed special session agenda, which includes a host of items that echo emerging national culture wars. Walle added...

This 7 minute segment is so worth watching. Sums it all up. -------------- WOW: Tucker Carlson Just Did A Bombshell Segment On Election Fraud This is a must-watch. https://twitter.com/ColumbiaBugle/status/1413675917923262464 “Here are the facts – actual, confirmed facts – that shape their perspective: 1) The FBI/etc spied on the 2016 Trump campaign using evidence manufactured by the Clinton campaign. We now know that all involved knew it was fake from Day 1 (see: Brennan’s July 2016 memo, etc). These are Tea Party people. The types who give their kids a pocket Constitution for their birthday and have Founding Fathers memes in...

For the past several months the office of Georgia Secretary of State (SOS) Brad Raffensperger has been quietly investigating whistle blowers who believe they detected potential fraud in the November 2020 election. That’s right. The Raffensperger’s Inspector General office has an active investigation into the key witnesses who testified before the Georgia General Assembly and signed affidavits for the exhibits of the Fulton County ballot inspection lawsuit! These witnesses swore they detected potentially counterfeit ballots in the Fulton County hand count audit that occurred on November 14th and 15th. They also observed a variety of other anomalies.The November 2020 election...

The White House has defended its role in helping to broker a deal that will shroud art deals by President Joe Biden's son in secrecy. Paintings by Hunter Biden are expected to fetch up to $500,000 (£360,000) apiece at auction this autumn. Any buyers will be kept anonymous to stop them seeking political influence with the Bidens, the White House says. But a former White House ethics chief said the arrangement was "very disappointing". The younger Biden's business dealings in Ukraine, China and elsewhere have often been held up by Republican critics as a conflict of interest for his father,...
