The Week In Woke

America is now divided between Republicans, Independents, and "Experts and Scholars." (Including Disinformation Experts, of course.)

Justine Bateman
@JustineBateman
To those "taking issue" with the things I've been saying lately:
1. There is nothing at all controversial with what I'm saying. I am expressing relief at a lifting of a spiritual heaviness that has been on our society for the past 4 years or more. I am looking forward to what follows.
2. If you are not familiar with my film and literary work, and are "confused" by (or verbally violent about) what I am saying, I invite you to watch my film VIOLET and read my books "FAME" and "FACE." VIOLET is a map to get from a fear-filled life to an instinct-filled life. "FAME" is about the life-cycle of Fame and how we put it on a pedestal and democratized the seeking of it. "FACE" is about women's faces getting older and why that makes people angry. All to say, this is the kind of information I deliver. I endeavor to free people from the fears that keep them from fully being themselves. The more people are themselves, the happier they'll be, and the more we all benefit.
3. I have never cared if I am talking to a "left-leaning" or a "right-leaning" media outlet when it's time for me to deliver something publicly. What I have to say is for ALL people, and not for just one set of people or another. What I am delivering is for everyone who needs to hear it, and that group is not divided along "party lines."
4. For those of you who have reached out to tell me to "beware of the group with whom you are associating," I say, "Fuck off."
I have something to do here. If you don't like it, move the fuck on

Confused hysterical stupid white leftist woman feels bad about being white and condemns white people and then gets angry and says "why are we still talking about race," before resolving her cognitive dissonance and deciding white people invented race.

Whoopi Goldberg defamed a beloved Staten Island bakery, claiming they wouldn't serve her. Frankly, they did her a favor. She's obviously a diabetic and does not need more cupcakes.

A sweet moment soured.
Whoopi Goldberg has claimed an NYC bakery refused to serve her because of her political beliefs -- and the 145-year-old eatery has fired back.
On Wednesday's episode of "The View," Goldberg and co-hosts Sunny Hostin, Alyssa Farah Griffin, Joy Behar and Sara Haines took a moment to celebrate her 69th birthday.
To mark the special occasion, the ladies indulged in some Charlotte Russe desserts, a New York specialty that the "Ghost" actress said were her mom's favorite growing up.
But the sweet moment didn't last, as Goldberg claimed that the bakery, which she chose not to name, declined to take her order due to her left-leaning political views.
The shop was identified by Entertainment Weekly as Holtermann's Bakery on Staten Island, a family-owned spot loved by locals.
"Now, I should tell you, Charlotte Russe has no political leanings, and the place that made these refused to make them for me," Goldberg said on the show, prompting strong reactions from the audience and her co-hosts.
"They said that their ovens had gone down, all kinds of stuff," Goldberg claimed, "but folks went and got them anyway, which is why I'm not telling you who made them."

We need RFKJr. to put this dumptruck on a diet.

The bakery said they couldn't take the order because it was too big and they had too much business at the moment.

And, as someone said, they might have noticed that Whoopi appeared "overserved" as far as cupcakes.

People are demanding the bakery sue her and Disney-owned ABC for their latest smear.

These people have to be locked up in court 24/7 -- like they did to Trump -- until they learn they cannot just smear people and call them "a known white supremacist" as some black extremist just smeared Pete Hegseth.

Whoopie Goldberg also told lefties to disown their family members who didn't support Kamala Harris.

In St. Helens, South Dakota, a teacher under investigation for sexually molesting students for eight years was allowed by the corrupt school board to teach students. He was later arrested. That's when parents found out the district had allowed a pedophile to remain in classrooms with their children. This Groomer Board must resign. Even students have had enough.

The UK will not survive, and it doesn't deserve to.

Cultural enrichment intensifies.

A DEI police sergeant in Philly is threatening to kill retired police who voted for Trump. She's telling them that, as retired cops, they are no longer protected from cops like her:

@PhillyPolice allegedly posted this unhinged meltdown online where she threatened retired cops and their families who voted for Trump saying "You will be the subject of whooping, stop and frisk-- and ultimately shot."

A woke school board in Durango, Colorado wants to fly gay and BLM flags and yet block other people from flying their own flags. So they're calling their own propaganda "government speech," which they claim is superior to mere citizens speech. They're just admitting it now.

If you missed it: AOC removed her pronouns from her Twitter bio. That will be the extent of the Democrat "correction:" No more "Latinx," no more pushing pronouns on everyone. She "accidentally" removed her pronouns before, but then apologized and put them back when she was called out. This time she hasn't put her pronouns back.

The Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua is now operating in every city in Tennessee, or, as Martha Raddatz would call it, "a handful of cities in Tennessee."

Meet Annie Dunleavy, a special education teacher at Chapman School (@CheshirePublic) in CT who reportedly posted a video online threatening to k*II and hurt Trump supporters.

15 The great Nellie Bowles says we can rely on the left to play by their own rules. Right?

But we need to remember that our institutions can never be criticized—if you do, you’re attacking democracy itself. As the great and righteous Merrick Garland put it: “Some have chosen to attack the integrity of the Justice Department. . . This constitutes an attack on an institution that is essential to American democracy and essential to the safety of the American people.” And so I expect similar restraint and honor be given to our potential new attorney general, Matthew Gaetz.

“I’m going to strongly request that the Ethics Committee not issue the report because that is not the way we do things in the House, and I think that would be a terrible precedent to set,” Johnson told reporters on Friday.

So, Johnson is putting his foot down to the committee chairman, and probably saying "it's the report or it's your spot - your choice"...

PS - Trump and Johnson talked before this came out - as I said, Trump likes Johnson in the speaker spot.

20 You know, for people who think that Trump is a nazi dictator who will destroy the constitution, they are awfully up front and very public with their complaints and threats.

The best hope for his legacy is that he's remembered as a timewaster like Ben Harrison (most likely) or Ford, maybe Fillmore or Van Buren. He doesn't get into the bottom tier with Carter because, frankly, everyone ignored him and he got lucky internationally.

Now they can barely make it through one news cycle. The Gaetz op is a case in point. They shouted credibly accused in the headline only to admit immediately that it was a con man trying to extort Gaetz and there was no truth to the story at all. If everyone is a sexual abuser, no one is.

78 It basically boils down to this: if comes a mass casualty event on American soil due to the Taliban and/or cartels, and the US can't do anything about it, then Biden and Carter share a cell in history's Sheol. But it won't matter because we're boned.
If nothing happens or we are able to correct the problem, Biden squeaks into purgatory with the nonentity Presidents.

They are merely reporting the ideas the FNM is pushing into their heads.

And even if you really, really push them the best you'll get is something like "he separated families at the border!" and then if you ask them how that compares to Hitler murdering 20M people and launching a world war that killed many times that you'll get a bunch of sputtering.

Now if you were to force a high information leftist to answer you would get a better one. Hitler damaged the cause of world communism and Trump damaged the cause of world wokeism (though they won't put it exactly like that).

167 They are merely reporting the ideas the FNM is pushing into their heads.

And even if you really, really push them the best you'll get is something like "he separated families at the border!" and then if you ask them how that compares to Hitler murdering 20M people and launching a world war that killed many times that you'll get a bunch of sputtering.

Now if you were to force a high information leftist to answer you would get a better one. Hitler damaged the cause of world communism and Trump damaged the cause of world wokeism (though they won't put it exactly like that).

The owner said that they were having trouble with their 60 year old boiler and did not want to make a commitment for a large order that they may not have been able to fulfill but in the end were able to. This had nothing to do with politics.

The drive to redeem all bonds and Continental notes at face value required collection of taxes on whiskey and other products, to avoid default. The notes and bonds had a secondary market at lower than face value, which the bankers and investors who had speculated on them being redeemed at face value at a later time.
Among the speculators was Abigail Adams, and it was pushed by Alexander Hamilton who felt that it would align the goals of the wealthy with the needs of the state -- showing a lack of understanding of "regulatory capture" going in both directions.

197 Charlie Kirk has a list of fraud waste and abuse. It's an OK list, but one stood out to me as true, but possibly misleading.

Unused Military Equipment: The Department of Defense has been criticized for spending billions on equipment that remains unused or is obsolete, reflecting inefficiencies in defense procurement.

1. Stockpiling is a thing. Just because you're not currently using something doesn't mean it's wasteful to buy it. Ammunition supplies for example are something I want the government to have for national defense purposes.

2. Not everything we have is or should be the latest and greatest. Maintaining what we have is still good. Lots of people here are fans of the A-10 Warthog for example. That thing is DECADES out of date. That doesn't mean it's a waste to maintain our A-10s.

from what I can tell, the New Deal was a massive plan to move wealth from the middle class, just like today. The people profiting from the illegal agencies were not the small businesses, they were the big money people who had an in with the administration.

One time, Frank Sinatra came in here, and sat in this chair. I say, "Frank, you hang out with Joe Louis. Just between me and you, how old is Joe Louis?" Know what Frank told me? He said "Hey, Joe Louis is a hundred thirty-seven years old." A hundred and thirty-seven years old!

Yes. The Whiskey Rebellion proved that the United States was a unitary entity, a single polity rather than a temporary alliance. If one buys into the notion that a "right of rebellion" is inherent and always justified, there is no nation.

Defenders of the Confederacy always ignore this point, and also ignore the existence of Article 5, which could have been used to create a general convention of the states to determine a resolution to the question of when secession is permissible, and even a far-ranging solution to the problem of slavery.

That did not happen, and a region or state that seizes government property renounces its allegiance and organized armed forces is - by every definition - in rebellion, which was contemplated by the Founding Fathers and placed in the Constitution. Them was some smart dudes.

243 The thing is, turning this inflation around (its already slowing) isn't that tough. Partly it will automatically begin to heal just because a business-friendly president is in office. Partly he'll get rid of a lot of the regulations and executive orders that have crippled transportation and business. Partly he'll make energy exploration and production cheaper, lowering gas prices and thus lowering prices across the board.

If it works like his last term in office, actual earning power will go up again, which will help everyone. All of that adds up to a turnaround that can be pretty fast -- faster than Reagan was able to pull off.

well, if your theory on implied consent of the governed means "they can take anything away from you under any pretext if you don't run away like you were a slave avoiding a beating" then you shouldn't consider a government to be anything more than a slave owner.

Trump will do the impossible: cut interest rates while curbing inflation. How?

First, slash government spending and run a budget surplus to pay down debt. That will put deflationary pressure on the money supply.

Second, unleash American fossil fuel productivity, which will drive down energy prices.

Third, boost real wages by reducing illegal immigrant labor.

Fourth, increase economic growth through regulatory reform, allowing the slack to be taken up.

Of course every time I bring up libertarian economics I get called a stinking drug addled child molester, so I suppose we have "Perfect conservatives" who get nothing done but infighting as well.

Milei definitely has read Jesus Huerta de Soto, I can tell because he clearly is quoting him. Who is doctor Huerta de Soto you ask?

Exactly ...

She knowingly went into a Republican stronghold looking for trouble.

320 I thought Justine Bateman was a tranny and then I looked up her bio. I was wrong. Justine is a hysterical tranny imitator.

So, a bra, and therefore a boob thread.

322 Weird.

I'm a bit of an historian and I think Trump is one of the most law-abiding, America-loving, correct-policy-implementing Presidents we've ever had, and Biden is third worst behind Carter and the Emperor Shit Midas Obama.

325 Besides being a founding member?
Huh? The Rat Pak was Sinatra, Joey Bishop, Peter Lawford, Sammy Davis, and Dean Martin. I've never heard of Bogart having anything to do with the Rat Pak.

326 Hmmm...apparently, Bogart was an original member of the 1940's Rat Pak, but I'd never heard of the Rat Pak until the 1960's version.

328 'The UK will not survive, and it doesn't deserve to.'

If I were Trump, I would take Two-tier Keir aside and tell him:
1) he holds Starmer personally responsible for this shit and intends to punish him directly
2) he is going to make sure the UK gets ostracized like Russia is now
3) he's going to tell Russia blew up Nordstream
4) he's going to replace the 'special relationship' with a relationship with France, Germany, Japan etc. at Britain's expense.

until this shit stops.

329 151 Harvard Scholars have ranked President Trump as the worst leader in recorded history. Pol Pot selected as best. The scholars prepared for the study by using the Obama/LeMon technique of sucking off thousands of randomly selected Hobos with active cases of herpes. The researchers explained this was done to get "their mouths ready for the taste of the obvious lies they were about to report as serious academic research".

'I would welcome the moral clarity of someone trying to physically attack me due to me voting for Trump.'

Same. Whoever that had better be big enough to beat my ass. If not, I'll beat on them until I start to feel sorry for them. And that'll take a while.

332 Confused hysterical stupid white leftist woman feels bad about being white and condemns white people and then gets angry and says "why are we still talking about race," before resolving her cognitive dissonance and deciding white people invented race.

-------

I watched it three times. That woman isn't resolving any kind of logical conundrum. I can't figure out what's going on with her - but nothing is being resolved in that mind. If anything, it's spinning further and further out of control.
