“And it just so happens that it’s three weeks before Christmas.”

No, Olga, that wasn't a coincidence. It was a particularly stupid and insensitive plan on the union's part and now the contractor is the one who suffers. Seems to me the SEIU owes its members strike benefits. Pay up.

They’re not really all missing. Just...pieces of them...

Somebody big got bribed. It’s all for sale now.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Funny, I was just thinking that same thing.

With Dementia Joe Biden as president you have to admit the bar has been lowered to nonexistence. Still, you have to admit that the DC incubator gives birth to some ridiculous self-delusions. Napoleon said that every private in the French army carries a field-marshal's baton in his knapsack, and what we see here is every apparatchik in DC thinking they're presidential material.

Who cares, just sacrifice her to a volcano.

Well, yes. I mean, it's worth a try. Gotta stay positive.

By “important things” he means “ten percent for the Big Guy”. There’s no money in it.

Oh dear. He seemed like such an honest guy, too... Hope Hunter Biden is watching.

You really don’t need to drive at all if the government is providing the cattle cars for you.

Draconian public health laws are nothing new, but the degree to which governments across the world have embraced them in a brutal grab for power is breathtaking. So, the masks don’t work, the vaccines don’t work, the quarantining doesn’t work, and all we are left with is a residual “follow the rules”. That part won’t ever go away.

“The doctors are under this gender ideology as well, so there’s this sort of idea that you can have mental illness and be trans,” she explained.

They aren't the only ones. In 2016 the 0bama administration tried to make performing such surgery mandatory for doctors, who would face severe penalties for refusing. In 2019 it was ruled unconstitutional to force doctors to do so against their religious objections, not simply their medical judgment. This grotesque "transforming America" fantasy was supported right at the political top and by people powerful enough to get the state to do their ideological dirty work for them.

This young woman was a casualty in this obscene culture war but the people really responsible for it are beyond reach and know it. Academics, journalists, politicians, celebrities are on that list as well as the physicians and counselors who have embraced it. For them Camille and others like her are acceptable losses in a campaign for an "inclusive" society with all the compassion of a circus freak show behind it.

Next thing you know these guys will be claiming that Easter is about something other than bunnies and eggs.

I don’t think that when you are telling stories and attempting to be a good citizen of the world, that that’s political

That "good citizen of the world" stuff covers an awful lot of ground and yes, it's inherently political. I highly doubt, for example, that sexualizing children and protecting sexual deviancy appeals to the whole world - say, China, for example? The Middle East? What part of being a good world citizen implies a disregard and active resistance to much of the world's opinions on those matters?

What has prevailed at Disney is simply a narcissistic consideration that the world must be run on the terms, and for the benefit of a loud, aggressive political minority and that no one else's opinions matter. So go broke. That we'll watch.

Congratulations!

I dunno - it has been a bit of a strain. I figure the good Lord gave us hands to change the world with, hands to build, to sculpt, to caress, to carve and join and dig and devise the means to reach the very stars. Commie kickball takes them away. No wonder the rest of the world loves it.

Anyone who thought Hunter Biden’s little laptop note was a joke might want to reconsider. Ten percent for the Big Guy is real.

After Greta's little Lenin-light speech of last Halloween who could doubt it anymore? What does anyone think the "climate justice" payments demanded in the UN in amounts of trillions of dollars are but demands for world socialist redistribution of wealth? Nobody is hiding this aspect of what used to be called environmentalism these days, they're celebrating it.

Watch out where the huskies go...

ICWYDT.

Holy moly, Junior looks...happy...
