The Week In Woke

What would we do without DEI Media "Elites"?

natoboner.jpg


In Brazil:

Mom who killed boyfriend and cut off his genitals after catching him raping her daughter is cleared of murder

One cheer for "decarceration."

Now for the bad news: Reading the details of the murder -- she killed her own romantic/sexual partner, and somehow she was able to slip a mickey into a drink and drug this guy while he was "raping her daughter" -- makes me think she just killed this guy out of jealousy and contrived the "raping my daughter" story to justify it.

An enraged mom who cut off her boyfriend's testicles and then set fire to his body after catching him trying to rape her daughter has been cleared of his murder.

Erica Pereira da Silveria Vicente confessed to killing partner Everton Amaro de Silva in Minas Gerais, Brazil -- saying she was just trying to protect her 11-year-old daughter from being raped, according to Estado de Minas.

She was alerted by alarming texts the predator sent the preteen -- then found him on top of her, trying to rape her, when rushing to her screaming daughter, according to the reports.

However, prosecutors insisted that the brutality of the murder proved it was carried out "not in blind rage but with cold premeditation."

The mom allegedly spiked de Silva's drink with Klonopin, a medication used to treat seizures, and then stabbed and clubbed him while he was unconscious, according to prosecutors.

Do rapists often take a drink mid-rape? Does a drugged drink work quickly enough to end a rape mid-rape?

I just ran some scientific tests on this story and my beakers and Erlenmeyer Flasks tell me that this story is forty seven moles of bullshit.

I don't know what happened here, but I know it's not what this woman is claiming happened.

A teen who heard screams helped the mom carry the body to wasteland in Belo Horizonte -- where Vicente cut off the dead man's genitals and set fire to his body, jurors were told.

...

She confessed to the killing -- but insisted it was only to save her daughter.

The jury agreed, and the mom was acquitted Tuesday of aggravated homicide and destroying a corpse after just one day of testimony.

The Gay Mafia got a black basketball player let go from the Chicago Bulls for stating that Pride Month -- a celebration of gay sex and kink -- was "unrighteous."

Jaden Ivey didn't last long with the Chicago Bulls before he was waived, let go, or whatever polite term is being used these days to fire someone. It came after he posted a video sharing his thoughts on Pride Month and the NBA.


In it, Ivey spoke openly about his Christian faith and took issue with the league's promotion of Pride Month. He called it unrighteous. He questioned why that message is celebrated so openly while opposing views seem to carry consequences.

By the end of the day, the video was everywhere.

Not long after that, the Bulls announced they were waiving him for what they described as conduct detrimental to the team.

That is the official explanation.

He's coming off an injury but it can't be doubted that political pressure was brought to bear here. Video here.

In this clip, another basketball player says he doesn't want to "go deep" into a question about his religion because of the Jaden Ivey situation, because "I don't wanna get waived."

I'm sure Bobby "The Brain" DeNiro will protest this use of corporate-governmental power to squelch black men's rights.

Democrats don't know how to relate to normal healthy people. But they figure that talking about their psychological problems will make them seem relatable.

Some potential 2028 Democratic presidential candidates are introducing themselves to voters in a striking way: by documenting their childhood resentments, family chaos and fights with their parents.

Why it matters: Many presidential hopefuls carry painful memories from complicated childhoods. But few have discussed them as openly as Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker.

Their frankness about their formative years and family dynamics is a way to shape their public stories before journalists do. It's also a sign of shifting taboos and a growing desire for candidates to appear relatable to voters.

Newsom grew up as private-school twat and family friend of the Getty's, and Pritzker is an obese billionaire nepo baby. I don't know if Josh Shapiro is a rich bitch --

-- update, just got an email from Tucker Carlson, saying, "Look at his last name. Look at his little hat. You know he's rich." Well I'll take that under consideration, Cuck.

They desperately need to show that they've "struggled" in life so out comes the stories of dyslexia and... fights with their parents?

What?

Your daddy wouldn't let you borrow the new Beemer -- just the old one, last year's model without the heated seats -- and you had yourself a sulk and so now you understand the daily grind of the common people?

Can I impress upon you the Healing Power of Shutting the Fuck Up?

You're probably not going to believe me, but a black female Democrat involved in the "Equity" grift turns out to be a fraudster and criminal thief.

Man, I did not have that on today's Bingo card. (Just yesterday's, tomorrow's, and Easter's.)

Last August, I told you the story of a close associate of then-Mayor London Breed named Sheryl Davis. Ms Davis had been on the rocket glide path to San Fran prominence as a member of the city's Human Rights Commission, eventually rising to become its head.

The SF Human Rights Commission, under Ms. Davis's leadership, had a $44M annual budget, which was scheduled to shrink amid the city's 2025-26 money woes to around $28M. Still pretty healthy cha-ching by any measure.

In 2021, in the aftermath of the St. George Floyd incident, she had also been personally tapped by Mayor Breed to lead a multimillion-dollar feel-good investment (described as 'tens of millions of dollars') that the city was making in the black community, dubbed the 'Dream Keeper Initiative.'

A huge pile of money earmarked for a completely vague purpose whose efficacy cannot be proven nor disproven given to a political crony who owes her position only to grifting?!

I see no (intentional) accountability holes here whatsoever!!!

...

The San Francisco Chronicle discovered a $10,000 tab paid for by the Human Rights Commission for a Martha's Vineyard cottage rental. Worse, the invoice had been split, seemingly to evade limits on travel claims, and even worse yet, they had the email from Ms. Davis asking for the workaround.

It snowballed from there.

the ten grand invoice was reportedly for interns (!) in the city's Dream Keeper program who were attending a conference on *checks notes* Martha's Vineyard.
the SF Standard reported that Human Rights Commission executive director Sheryl Davis had signed off on $1.5 million in grants to a nonprofit led by a man she lived with, one James Spingola
the Human Rights Commission's Dream Keeper Initiative had granted a total of $7.5 million to Spingola's Collective Impact nonprofit.
Sheryl Davis got $19,000 in city money for her son's UCLA grad school tuition, as the Chronicle reports.
Spingola's non-profit, Collective Impact, got $27 million in city grants, gave first-class airfare to Davis to promote her book and podcast, plus another $5,000 for Oakland soul singer Goapele to perform at Davis's book launch party.
Davis was Collective Impact's executive director before taking the Human Rights Commission job

The wheels of justice move slowly, but this past Monday, Sheryl Davis surrendered to face 57 pages of legal sheet music.


Once San Francisco's most powerful civil rights watchdog, Sheryl Davis continued her spectacular fall on Monday when she surrendered to authorities to face accusations that she misappropriated funds and engaged in "pervasive" self-dealing while leading a landmark initiative meant to benefit the city's Black community.

See the link for more.

I'm sure she'll explain that she personally paid for the trip to Martha's Vinyard but has no bank transactions to prove it because she paid it out of the huge sums of cash she keeps hidden in the house because her daddy told her that was a great way to store wealth.

Liberal "man" at a No Kings rally says he's wearing Scarlet Whore lipstick because someone told him that wearing lipstick was a historic show of resistance to Hitler. He then explained he was walking around with a 12 inch butt plug in his rectum because his friend also told him that Anal Training was the "highest form of patriotism."

Say her name:

SAY HER NAME: Kembery Chirinos Flores

Kembery, a 24yo California mother, was reportedly shot and m*rdered by two illegal aliens, Gerzon Chirinos-Munguia and Alfonso Inestroza.

Chirinos-Munguia was previously arrested for domestic battery in 2019 but California officials RELEASED him instead of giving him to ICE.

Inestroza was wanted for ANOTHER m*rder in NJ at the time of his arrest.

An innocent mother is DEAD because these criminal illegals were allowed to walk the streets.

When all of the prisoners are set free, all of the citizens must lock themselves up:

20 Pearll Warren....from Minneapolis!! And a poet!!

A mother of seven (she adopted her eldest grandchild) and grandmother to six, her professional career has included work in housing, environmental justice, clean energy and literacy. Earlier this month, she was sworn in as her community’s voice on the Minneapolis City Council, replacing Jeremiah Ellison, who did not seek re-election.

Ward 5’s New Council Member Pearll Warren is never at a loss for words. In fact, she’s among the best Spoken Word Artists in the country, having placed 14th in a global competition back in 2014. “I competed in the women’s National Poetry Slam, against 72 other women,” recalls Warren, who still performs today. “It’s my art. It’s my medicine. It’s my therapy. It gave me a diction for my experiences to really capture my emotions or my vantage point.

26 Time to stop screwing around President Muffley. We have advanced weapons in our arsenal to do the job without ground invasion...

A neutron bomb, officially defined as a type of enhanced radiation weapon (ERW), is a low-yield thermonuclear weapon designed to maximize lethal neutron radiation in the immediate vicinity of the blast while minimizing the physical power of the blast itself. The neutron release generated by a nuclear fusion reaction is intentionally allowed to escape the weapon, rather than being absorbed by its other components.[3] The neutron burst, which is used as the primary destructive action of the warhead, is able to penetrate enemy armor more effectively than a conventional warhead, thus making it more lethal as a tactical weapon.

Something like 29 years ago I happened to be living in Savannah. In those days they had newspapers printed on dead tree. And local staff writing articles of local interest. One of the staffers wrote a political op/ed on racism in the south, as perceived by new englanders. This writer happened t be a black guy, who happened to be from the NE. Before I get to the onion on the belt, he said they are far more racist in the NE than down south.

68 Mother, May I sleep with Danger.

From wiki:
A young woman, Erin, breaks up with her boyfriend, Billy, after kissing their mutual friend Kevin and deciding to pursue a relationship with him. Enraged, Billy bludgeons Erin to death and conceals the crime. Some time later, college student Laurel starts a relationship with Billy, who has assumed Kevin's identity. He becomes overly attached, but she is drawn to his intense affection; when he behaves inappropriately, she accepts his apologetic romantic gestures. After meeting Laurel's mother Jessica, Billy becomes increasingly more aggressive and jealous. He convinces Laurel to cut and bleach her hair, both to incense Jessica and to make Laurel resemble Erin. Jessica suspects "Kevin" is not who he claims to be.

To protect his assumed identity, Billy murders Kevin, who had been out of town. He convinces Laurel to live with him in an isolated cabin with no telephone. After she discovers he is not arranging installation of a phone line as he had claimed, she confronts him and decides to move out. He drugs and abducts her, driving her car to her family's cabin.

Now, I say he did it past tense. But mom came up with a present tense story b/c saying you cold-bloodedly killed the rapist after the crime doesn't always get you off...but "saving the life of another" would, since you are always allowed to come to the aid of another.

I'm sure the jury was convinced of those facts, and thus didn't ultimately care what story mom came up with - they saw a dude who had it coming and deserved all he got.

109 As usual you are watching a bunch of lightly scripted bullshit and to back that up, my prediction is that the 2028 DNC primary will be a giant farce of "Trump Style" attacks on each other but all couched in focus group voter friendly branding. At least voter friendly on their chosen one or two and damaging to the ones they really don't want.

So like one of them will brand Newsom (for example) as "mean" or something like that. But Democrats think "mean" sells now especially in a supposedly manly man they can keep the ladies moist for. I'm just spitballing, there's a few ways it could really go, and even predicting the shape is hard.

But my theory is if they're all being loud and obnoxious to each other, Vance or Trump attacks on them aren't gonna easily land. Or so the DNC will believe.

Although most prehistorians who have studied the Predynastic agree that a startling increase in rainfall took place in Upper Egypt between 7000 and 2500 BC, they are not unanimous about where it came from, how consistent it was, or at what time of the year it would have fallen.
...
Regardless of how we reconstruct the subsistence economy and divisions of labor that were used by Predynastic peoples to take advantage of their complex environment, it seems apparent that they were scattered widely from the banks of the Nile out into the hills of the Western Desert, exploiting a variety of ecological niches with a variety of different subsistence techniques and modes of social organization.

Yeah. Every time I hear the Green Sahara claim I think to myself, OK, then where did the gazillions of tons of sand come from? Were there plants, now extinct, that grew in sand? Methinks this claim is about green, wet areas near the coast and the Nile, that extended inland maybe fifty miles more than today, and the savanna belt extended a bit farther north. But the 'experts' seem to want everyone to believe the entire Sahara area was a lush garden from the Mediterranean to Timbuktu and Khartoum, five-to-ten thousand years ago.

142 Madame Newsom does know that those red states were all blue states when they had slavery, right?

143 If it stopped raining on Florida, in a couple of thousand years the peninsula would be a sea of white sugar-sand dunes.

Wasn't Upper Egypt populated by refugees from Nabta Playa when the Sahara dried up?

144 Yeah. Every time I hear the Green Sahara claim I think to myself, OK, then where did the gazillions of tons of sand come from? Were there plants, now extinct, that grew in sand? Methinks this claim is about green, wet areas near the coast and the Nile, that extended inland maybe fifty miles more than today, and the savanna belt extended a bit farther north. But the 'experts' seem to want everyone to believe the entire Sahara area was a lush garden from the Mediterranean to Timbuktu and Khartoum, five-to-ten thousand years ago.

There are places in the US that are very sandy, and if the rains went away they would be come quite sandy deserts.

one of the alternate ways of looking at the questions is "If that area was rainy and green once upon a time, would people have lived in it and left traces, and would the rain run off to make lakes and river systems" and then look to see if such things have been found.

Try looking up "paleorivers" and "sahara" for example, or "hunters and gatherers" and "sahara" to see what is found online from the journals

Allegedly, but she has bigger concerns -- two, in fact -- that divert her stunning intellect from such "deep thoughts".

148 Boston is far and away the most racist town I've ever experienced.
Yeah, my experience as well. Also total assholes. But the blacks there aren't any better.

149 "Jaden Ivey didn't last long with the Chicago Bulls before he was waived, let go, or whatever polite term is being used these days to fire someone. It came after he posted a video sharing his thoughts on Pride Month and the NBA."

The law suit settlement from this should be worth something north of a $100 million. I am going to off the rails here and assume that it is wildly illegal to shitcan somebody because for simply stating he isn't a fan of homo sex.

150 Which is why the whole 'Jews killed Christ!' thing is such... bullshit. Who killed Christ? WE ALL did. We made it necessary.
Posted by: Aetius451AD at April 03, 2026 07:02 PM (bss/y)

I don't follow. It was necessary has a corollary: it was necessary for someone to do it.

It also is fairly ahistorical. Assigning blame to the Jews has a textual basis (Matt 27:25) that was recognized to stand for that proposition for a long time. Saint Augustine, for example.

I prefer our more contemporary rapprochement with the Jews myself. But I don't think the preceding view was dumb or inexplicable.

I think Christians have largely lost their fire and are embarrassed by a lot of their past. It's a lot like the story of the modern West in general.
