Gender dysphoric male cheerleader kicked out of camp: allegedly choked female teammate

A gender dysphoric male cheerleader was ejected out of a Texas cheerleading camp and charged criminally after he allegedly choked a female teammate, which was quite unladylike for him to do. Perhaps his testosterone level was too high that day.

"Well guys I’m officially retired as a cheerleader as of last night at 5:30 AM. A girl on the team was being very disrespectful and told me I am a MAN with a PENIS and that [guys] should not be on the team," the cheerleader, Averie Chanel Medlock, wrote on Facebook last week. The woman cheerleader left out the fact that Medlock also has a set of testicles, but that may have been unnecessary.

"I stood up for myself and she called her mom and dad because she was scared, because I [stood] up for myself. Her father said ‘she still has testosterone and a penis and I will kill anyone who comes after my daughter.’"

Yes, he stood up for himself by physically assaulting a woman. What balls! She was scared because Medlock is a dude and can seriously injure her.

The alleged assault took place at Ranger College, where police responded to a dispute between the members of the team, according to Facebook posts from team members. The mentally ill Medlock claimed the female made "transphobic" and "racist" remarks before he attacked her. Cell phone video shows other female cheerleaders hiding in a room, away from a livid man who claims to believe he's a woman.

The father of the female whom Medlock allegedly choked was called to the scene by his daughter and he has begun insisting that police release body camera and CCTV footage of the incident.

"I ask you what you would have done when receiving a phone call at 1 o’clock in the morning from your daughter stating they had locked themselves in the room with other girls," the father, Mike Jones, wrote on Facebook. "At no time did I ever say anything about your race or your gender."

Somehow I believe the female.

Medlock asserts that the physical confrontation with the other cheerleader was actually a joke, but police on the scene gave the former cheerleader a criminal citation for assault and removed  him from campus.

The incident comes as debate continues to rage about gender dysphoric men participating in female athletics, most recently in the case of University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas who still sports a penis and testicles and is sexually attracted to women. His male lung capacity, wingspan, and overall strength puts him and men in general at a physical advantage over women in athletics.

Do you believe men should be allowed to compete against women in sports involving strength, speed or other physical attributes that put men at an advantage? Feel free to comment.

Drone blast hits Russia's Black Sea Fleet

Ukrainian drone enthusiast, Pete Buttigieg, prepares for the mission

Kyiv, Ukraine -- A drone-borne explosive device exploded Sunday at the HQ of Russia's Black Sea Fleet. Six Russians were injured, officials said.

The explosion was at the headquarters in Sevastopol, on the Crimean peninsula, an area Russia annexed from Ukraine in 2014 and ruined Russia's Navy Day celebration.

The drone appeared to be homemade, according to the Black Sea Fleet's press service, describing the explosive force as "low-power" yet Sevastopol mayor Mikhail Razvozhaev said that six people were injured.

It appears unknown as to where the drone flight originated but it did the job as fighting continues in Ukraine and it's unwise to believe any information both sides put out as propaganda is a weapon they both use.

The mayor of Mykolaiv, a port city, Vitaliy Kim, said that one person died in Russian shelling that hit a hotel and school buildings.

In the Sumy region in northern Ukraine, near the Russian border, shelling killed one person, the regional administration said.

In the Donetsk region, three Ukrainians died, said governor Pavlo Kyrylenko.

Iran building a new nuclear reactor in Isfahan

The head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization (IAEO) said the country is ready to start construction of a new nuclear research reactor at the Isfahan nuclear facility. By "research" they mean "military weapons research," they just left that part off for brevity sake.

Iran’s state-run media outlet Fars news agency quoted the IAEO official asserting that “Iran has a new plan to produce 10,000 megawatts of nuclear electricity and work is underway to choose suitable places to build nuclear facilities in the country, especially in the south.” 

But is the Islamic Republic of Iran telling the truth? We really don't know and neither does the Biden administration. The remarks come amidst the stalled U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations in Vienna, but it may be a smokescreen and a veiled threat to the U.S. and other less bellicose nations to grant these terrorists concessions it asked for in the negotiations.

IAEO [dick] head Mohammad Eslami emphasized Iran’s ambition to develop the new nuclear research reactor “completely indigenously.” 

Eslami also inferred that one of the primary roadblocks preventing Iran’s nuclear growth is the smaller capacity of the country’s domestic power plants. “In this direction, we will use international partnerships and we will not wait for anyone, because Iran has sufficient scientific, industrial and technological capacities,” he said, according to The Jerusalem Post.

 “Fortunately, there are large companies in the country that can support the 10,000-megawatt nuclear power production program, and we also support any company and institution that participates in the program of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran.”

Iran’s Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center (INTC) is the country’s largest and most sophisticated nuclear research complex. Built in the mid-1980s with assistance from the People’s Republic of China (PRC), the INTC is largely suspected of being the epicenter of Tehran’s underground and secret nuclear weapons program.

Iran’s self-reported plan to construct a new nuclear research facility is the country’s latest escalation in its nuclear ambitions. With a rapidly approaching nuclear breakout time, the regime’s intentions appear more malign than ever, and we have to give credit where it's due: thank you Joe Biden and whoever is behind the curtain pulling his strings.

Palestinian Authority doubles terrorist salary who murdered Jewish family

Terrorist Omar al-Abed

It's impossible to have sympathy for someone who kills three members of a family simply because they are Jews, but the Palestinian Authority (PA) does more than that--they literally pay a stipend to terrorists or their families to support anti-Semitic terrorism.

Three members of the Salomon family had gathered around to celebrate the birth of a baby boy when Omar al-Abed entered the home in Halamish, in the Binyamin region, while the family ate dinner. 

Al-Abed slaughtered Yosef Salomon, 70, and his two adult children, Chaya, 46, and Elad, 36 and as a reward for the killings, the PA paid him a stipend. Now that this scumbag has completed five years in prison, they plan to double his salary from 2,000 shekels (about $643 US) to 4,000 shekels ($1,286 per month.

Back on July 15, 2017, days prior to the slaughter, the Fatah party of PA President Mahmoud Abbas

rebroadcasted on its official Facebook page his implicit call to violence, a call originally made on Oct. 17, 2014 on official PA TV. 

Abbas claimed that Jews “have no right to defile” the Al-Aqsa Mosque and that Palestinians should “prevent” the Jews from doing so. [By any means necessary, as the left loves to say.]

“We must all carry out Ribat [religious conflict] in the Al-Aqsa Mosque… We must prevent them, in any way whatsoever, from entering the Sanctuary… They have no right to enter it. They have no right to defile it. We must prevent them. Let us stand before them with chests bared to protect our holy places,” Abbas stated.

So al-Abed heard the call and wrote in a "will" on Facebook prior to the attack that he was taking his "sharpened knife" to "respond" to what was going on at the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Agreeing with Assad, he described the Israelis/Jews "defiling our A-Aqsa Mosque," and openly explained that he didn't expect to return, but instead, was going "to Paradise."

The will stated as reported by Palestinian Media Watch:

“They defile our Al-Aqsa Mosque, the place of our beloved [Prophet Muhammad’s] Night Journey, while we are asleep. Isn’t it a disgrace for us to sit idle? You whose weapons are covered with rust, you who only take out your weapons for display – aren’t you ashamed of yourselves?

“They’ve declared war on Allah. Isn’t Allah deserving of you making efforts for Him? They closed the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and your weapon did not respond to the call! All that is in my hands is a sharpened knife, and it answers the call of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.”

So not only was al-Abed planning to kill Jews for Muhammad, he was narcissistically declaring that he is better than the average Muslim who allows their weapons to rust.

As Palestinian Media Watch has exposed, the PA often refers to Jews as the “sons of apes and pigs” and likewise promotes “Martyrdom for Allah” to incite terror. 

Adopting this PA messaging, the scumcrumpet continued:

“You, the sons of apes and pigs (i.e., Jews in Islamic tradition, see note below) – if you do not open the gates of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, I am certain that after me will come a man who will strike [you] with an iron hand, I warn you! I know that I’m going there and I’ll never come back here; rather I’ll come back to Paradise, in the embrace of Allah’s mercies.

“How good and pleasant is death and Martyrdom (Shahada) for Allah, His Messenger [Muhammad], and the place of His Messenger’s Night Journey (i.e., the Al-Aqsa Mosque)!”

Since the PA asked jihadis to kill Jews, it's only fitting they pay them a reward.

And still there are naive Americans who support the Boycott, Divest and Sanctions movement (BDS) against Israel and the Jews. The Democrat socialists of the so-called Squad and others on the Left, have called to support the movement and college students who couldn't tell you what our three branches of government are, do support it.

Remember, if they can come for the Jews, they can come for you next.

Neo-Nazi group member planned mass murder at NY Synagogue

The manifesto of the neo-Nazi group Rapekrieg says that those unable "to pull the trigger on a Jewish child" are unfit for membership. 

An ex-Marine, Matthew Belanger, belongs to Rapekrieg and he plotted to kill and sexually assault people to “decrease the number of minority residents” in the United States, federal prosecutors say, according to a report on the Rolling Stone site. 

Belanger also plotted a mass murder attack on a New York synagogue and fortunately was arrested on June 10. He was charged with making false statements to a federal firearms licensee, much like Hunter Biden did, in order to purchase an assault rifle and handgun. Belanger pleaded not guilty at an arraignment hearing last Monday.

A July 14 court memo states that while serving in the Marine Corps, Belanger trained in the woods of Long Island as part of a plot to attack the "Zionist Order of Governments."

Furthermore, he was also the subject of an FBI Joint Terrorism Taskforce investigation into an alleged plot to “engage in widespread homicide and sexual assault.” Evidently, it was difficult for him to get laid, but he used the excuse that his motive was to decrease the number of non-white Americans and to "rape white women to increase the production of white children.”

Belanger was a member the Marine Corps from 2019 until May 2021, when he was discharged with an Other Than Honorable Discharge, just short of a Dishonorable Discharge, which he seems to deserve even more.

In an October 2020 search of this loser's Marine Corps barracks, the FBI found “1,950 images, videos and documents related to white power groups, Nazi literature, brutality towards the Jewish community, brutality towards women, rape, mass murderers,” along with “violent uncensored executions and/or rape” and “previous mass murderers such as Dylan Roof.” 

There is no doubt that Belanger is a seriously dangerous and disturbed individual and is now detained in a federal detention center in Honolulu. He hasn't yet been charged with crimes related to his membership in Rapekrieg, a group with  “overlapping beliefs and membership with other neo-Nazi groups that, according to the detention memo, “espouse racially motivated violent extremist neo-Nazi rhetoric and call for acts of violence to further their extremist ideology.”

A Rapekrieg manifesto cited in the memo cites approval of the “rape ideology” as an “effective tool” and says that those unable “to pull the trigger on a Jewish child” are unfit for membership. The word "krieg" in German means "war." The combination 'Rapekrieg' is obvious. 

America doesn't have a gun problem--we have a people problem.

MI Gov. Whitmer will fight to keep abortion legal "for your kids" who you did not abort

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D) promised her constituents that she will keep fighting for the right of their children, who were not killed in the womb, to have the right to kill their own unborn children when they grow up.

Frau Whitmer made the legal killing of the unborn a central part her her platform to Michigan voters after the Supreme Court put the issue back into the hands of the individual states and correctly took it away from the federal government. Unfortunately, most people have been led by the media to believe that all rights to kill the unborn were taken from them, but no, they can easily find a state where killing the unborn baby is considered a mother's health issue and right. 

Whitmer is hoping that her stance on killing the unborn will help her win a second term in November, in spite of her mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic and her concomitant hypocritical actions, as well as those of her husband's during her mandatory lockdowns. If indeed she wins a second term, Michigan will get what they deserve, good and hard.

“Abortion is still legal in Michigan, and I’ll never stop fighting to keep it that way. For my [living] kids, your [living] kids, and the future of our great state.” Whitmer tweeted Friday afternoon.

Abortion remains obtainable in the state thanks to a Court of Claims judge placing a stay on a 1931 abortion law that outlaws the practice, with the only exception being the life of the mother. In April, Whitmer filed a lawsuit and used executive action to urge the state’s highest court to look at the 1931 law.

Whitmer likes to call herself a staunch defender of killing babies in the womb, and perhaps one day, hopefully beyond it, like the former governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam, another Democrat. Northam believes that if the baby is born and made comfortable, but the mother still wants to kill him or her, she can discuss it with her abortionist.

Legacy media outlets like The Washington Post and Time recently ran glowing pieces on Whitmer. The Post even spotlighted her two pro-abortion college daughters in a piece headlined, “Gretchen Whitmer’s abortion fight — from the porch with her daughters.” [Fun Fact: Whitmer did not abort her daughters.]

Whitmer faces a re-election challenge in November from a Republican Party expecting a “red wave” in the midterms. Tudor Dixon (R) is a Trump-endorsed primary candidate running against her, and it would not surprise many of us if she gets the go-ahead nod from the voters to go up against Whitmer. She's articulate, intelligent and appears to have strong conservative values.

To appeal to Michigan voters, Whitmer appears set on making abortion a top issue, promising to “fight like hell” to protect abortion access, and the people in hell are cheering for her.

BREAKING:Biden tests positive for COVID-19 again. May also have dementia, gas and incontinence

Joe's signature "Deer in the headlights" look of utter confusion

Alleged President Joe Biden has once again tested positive for COVID-19 Saturday, in just over three days after he was COVID-free, as the White House said. This is a case of "rebound" following treatment with an anti-viral drug. 

White House Doctor of Osteopathy, Kevin O’Connor, said in a letter that Biden “has experienced no reemergence of symptoms, and continues to feel quite well.” This may be due to his just learning again that he is the President of the United States, and what could be better than that. However, symptoms of gas, dementia and incontinence exist and Biden is not expected to be making any visits to foreign heads of state anytime soon.

In a rare communication with the Biden administration, former President Donald Trump, wrote: "See, I told you if you drank bleach and shot sunlight up your ass, this would have never happened and you'd be fine."

In accordance with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines, the so-called president will re-enter isolation for least five days. The agency says most rebound cases remain mild and that severe disease during that period has not been reported.

Uvalde City Council to investigate every city cop who responded to the school massacre

Uvalde, Texas -- The Uvalde City Council said Tuesday that every city cop who responded to the Robb Elementary School massacre on May 24 will be fully investigated. Some people believe the council is looking to discover even one set of balls among the police there as none were obvious while the shooter was in a classroom killing 19 children and two teachers.

“This investigation is looking at every single officer and what his actions, what he did, what our policy says, and basically, we’re gonna get a report on everybody,” council member Ernest “Chip” King III said during a council meeting, according to CNN. “We will act on it, and we promise that to you,” King added.

According to the Washington Examiner, Austin, Texas police detective Jesse Prado will be the lead investigator appointed by the council. He will be the lead on interviewing 25 officers from Uvalde's 39-member police department. [I used 'department' as the word 'force' is not appropriate to use in this case.]

“He’s gonna be conducting the investigation and we’re gonna let the investigation go, see what he determines, but everybody that’s Uvalde PD that was there will be held accountable for their actions,” King said, according to CNN, aka the Compromised News Network.

The investigation is being performed after the public across the nation were rightfully outraged over Uvalde's law enforcement personnel failing to confront the shooter as he was killing people. Perhaps the most enraging piece of video was that of an officer nonchalantly sanitizing his hands while the shooting was taking place and his fellow officers stayed safely away down the hallway.

The officers waited 77 minutes prior to removing their thumbs from their butts and finally taking action and fatally shooting the gunman. The video below might be disturbing to viewers:

“We owe it to the families. We want to get it right,” Uvalde council member Everardo Zamora told CNN.

The Uvalde City Council has taken some action against some of its local authorities.

For example, Uvalde’s acting police chief [and he really was acting] at the time of the massacre, Lt. Mariano Pargas, has been suspended and the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District chief of police, Pete Arredondo, is on administrative leave. The Council also suspended the school's Principal Mandy Gutierrez after an investigation found that she failed to fix a broken lock on a door to the classroom the gunman had entered.

How do these people forgive themselves?

Beyond these suspensions, and paid vacations, many family members of the victims  of the shooting who were at the meeting wanted more action to be taken, such as suspending all the city's cops who responded to the shooting and holding them accountable for their cowardice leading to their failure to do their sworn duty.

At last night’s Uvalde council meeting, Eloise Castro stood at the lectern. An elderly retired floral shop owner, she reads statements from carefully prepared notes. But if you think she’s a meek, soft-spoken old lady, you’d only be half right. She’s incisive, w/a sharp tongue. pic.twitter.com/pH0PIYn2Wm

— Sig Christenson 🏕 (@saddamscribe) July 27, 2022

Ms. Castro correctly voiced her concern that the people the Council is using to investigate the Uvalde cops are themselves Texas cops and she seems to believe they might not be as critical as outsiders would be of the lack of response the Uvalde cops showed.

It's going to be interesting to see how the investigation pans out. The Uvalde police are a stain on the reputations of good police in this country and do not represent the vast majority. However, that isn't how the public may evaluate policing. One can only hope the investigation is meaningful.

Chicago prosecutor resigns, blasts Kim Foxx

An Illinois prosecutor blasted Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx in his office-wide resignation letter. He said that Foxx cares more about political narratives than victims of crime.

Assistant Cook County State’s Attorney Jim Murphy said he "can't continue to work for an administration I don't respect," in the resignation letter. His last day, after serving 25 years, was Friday. But after what Foxx did in the Jussie Smollett case [google it], it's a wonder why he waited until now to come to this conclusion.

"I wish I could stay," the Murph wrote. "However, I can no longer work for this Administration. I have zero confidence in leadership." Again, what took his so long?

Murphy cited a number of reasons for his departure, including the "Safe-T Act," a measure that requires prosecutors to present a higher burden of proof, like a smoking gun, or video of the perp in the act, to hold accused criminals until trial. 

While Murphy supports eliminating cash-bail, he said Foxx's office rushed the reform and that his concerns were brushed aside. He cited "dangerously" low staffing levels in all units and bureaus in Foxx's office, to the point where one or two-person courtrooms are now common.

"If this administration was truly concerned with effectively fighting violent crime, then they would fully staff those courtrooms and units," he wrote. "Meanwhile the rest of us are overworked, overstressed, and under-resourced. But at least we were allowed to wear jeans in July."

Murphy said Foxx was angry one day several months ago when he was summoned into a meeting about bond hearings he was involved in. One involved a "massive shootout" and the other a woman who was gunned down walking to a store after being caught in the crossfire.

Murphy said Foxx was upset about a newspaper headline that indicated the suspect would not face a murder charge under the Safe-T Act. He said Foxx appeared to be more upset with the headline than the fact that a woman had died.

"That is what is wrong with this administration. I've seen day after day," he said. "How many mass shootings do there have to be before something is done?"

The answer to that question isn't 'how many', it's 'how close to Foxx's home' does it have to be before she does something.

"This administration is more concerned with political narratives and agendas than with victims and prosecuting violent crime," he added. "That is why I can't stay any longer."

Hopefully the Murph will find better work.

Jersey City Democrat caught on camera hitting cyclist and driving off

Ann DeGise, a Jersey City councilwoman [whatever that is--I'm not a biologist] was caught on video driving away after T-boning a guy on a bike and is now facing demands that she resign after the hit-and-run.

DeGise is a first-term, at-large city council member and is the daughter of Hudson County Executive Tom DeGise, a powerful Democrat who allowed his daughter to be born.

According to the video, she had the green light and the guy on the bike ran the red light on the July 19 incident. But while it was obvious she had struck Andrew Black, 31, with her car, she kept going and didn't seem to care if he needed help, sparking anger in the town and even among her council colleagues.

“Past being elected its a living human being, it was really hard for me to witness that,” said Councilman Frank Gilmore [no relation to Happy]. “It’s a matter of public trust, it’s a matter of respect, it’s a matter of human decency.”

Another fellow council member, James Solomon, was among the first to sign a change.org petition calling for DeGise to resign.

“The word I use is horrified, that’s how I felt watching the video,” Solomon told NBCNewYork.com. “She’s an elected official and we have to hold ourselves to a higher standard and that’s why I think she should resign.”

A higher standard for an elected official? That'll be the day.

The collision sent Mr. Black flying ass-over-tea-kettle through the air, bouncing off the hood of the DeGise SUV, and landing in the middle of the busy intersection of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. He soon got up and staggered out of the middle of the street to the safety of the sidewalk, where another person tended to him. 

Black's bike landed across the intersection in a tangled mess, but the cyclist, an Uber Eats deliveryman [whatever that is] suffered no serious injury, although DeGise didn't know that because she was putting the pedal to the metal on down the road. 

Little did she know she was on video.

“Someone of prestige would fall to the point where they would ignore the law,” Black said in an interview with HudPost, but it looked as if Black was the one who should have obeyed the traffic light.

DeGise has been charged with failure to report the accident and leaving the scene. She reported the accident six hours later, according to the Jersey Journal, and said through a spokesperson she has no intention of resigning,

DeGise is a former school board member and was previously chair of the powerful Hudson County Democratic Organization.

Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop, a fellow Democrat who ran with DeGise on his ticket in November, called the incident a terrible mistake but stopped short of calling on DeGise to resign because she is a Democrat. Had she not been a Democrat, she would be an Uber Eats deliverywoman [whatever that is].

Biden will close gaps in wall now that Dems are worried about midterm elections

Alleged President Joe Biden is going to "do a Trump" by filling in the gaps in certain areas of the former president 's border wall along the U.S. southern border. It seems that the illegal immigrants are now showing up in Democratic-run cities, including Washington, D.C., and it's causing the mayors of these towns great consternation. 

The Associated Press noted that Biden “pledged during his campaign to cease all future wall construction,” as he wanted to undo everything Trump did because it was Trump who did it. However, now that the midterm elections are closing in, and illegal aliens are pouring into Democratic cities, the left is running scared and must stem the flow of migrants who want handouts from the taxpayers.

Controversial Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, a George Soros pick, reluctantly authorized the project that will close four massive gaps in the border wall near Yuma, Arizona, which has been decimated by Biden’s border crisis.

The reason for closing the gaps are purely political. For example, Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) is up for re-election and he has no chance because of the decisions his party has made at the expense of the American people.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) basically told Washington, D.C. Democrat Mayor Muriel Bowser to pound sand Thursday afternoon when she complained that Texas was flooding her city with illegal aliens.

“With pledges from Texas and Arizona to continue these abhorrent operations indefinitely, the situation is dire, and we consider this a humanitarian crisis — one that could overwhelm our social support network without immediate and sustained federal intervention,” Bowser wrote in requesting help from the National Guard.

But Bowser never called in the National Guard when Black Lives Matter and Antifa were burning down the city during the George Floyd riots.

“We’ve had a number of discussions,” Bowser said. “We’ve facilitated FEMA’s involvement with a million dollar grant that has now been increased to work with a lead nonprofit agency. We’ve facilitated using those grant funds to set up respite center in a neighboring jurisdiction and I’ve also asked the Secretary of the Army to deploy the D.C. National Guard to help lead that effort.”

Abbott responded on Twitter, writing: “D.C. is experiencing a fraction of the disastrous impact the border crisis has caused Texas.”

“Mayor Bowser should stop attacking Texas for securing the border & demand Joe Biden do his job,” Abbott added.

Bowser said in her letter that she expects the “crisis” in D.C., a term that Democrats have resisted using when talking about Biden’s border crisis, “to escalate.” “The number of people crossing the border seeking asylum, we expect to only go up, we need to make sure that there is a national response, not an ad hoc city by city, state by state response,” she continued.

Gee, I wonder how this immigration crisis started in the first place.

Abbott spokesperson Renae Eze told The Washington Examiner that Washington, D.C., which is overwhelmingly Democrat, “finally understands what Texans have been dealing with every single day, as our communities are overrun and overwhelmed by thousands of illegal immigrants thanks to President Biden’s open border policies.”

Over the past three months, more than 150 buses have transported over 4,000 migrants to D.C. from Arizona and Texas. They weren't forced to go there, just as they aren't forced to go back home. But given the opportunity, the migrants elected to go to D.C. and were assisted in their endeavors.

And now New York City is getting what they deserve too as Mayor Eric Adams, who endorsed illegal immigration and open borders, is receiving the human results of that sentiment.

Over 50 lawmakers sign letter demanding Biden get cognitive test

No honest person believes that U.S. President Joe Biden is hitting on all cylinders. He is declining rapidly to the point now where he is barely sentient. Look at any of his speeches of late and see how much editing has to go into almost every line before being fed out to the public.

Fifty-three U.S. lawmakers in the Republican Party have signed onto a letter this week written by Doctor Ronny Jackson, former White House physician to two presidents, Obama and Trump. Jackson demands that Biden take a cognitive exam and immediately share the results with the public. Trump did, why not Biden?

“While you underwent your annual physical exam on November 19, 2021, you either did not face a cognitive test or those results were withheld from the public,” Jackson, a Republican who now represents Texas’ 13th Congressional District in Congress, wrote. 

“White House Physician Kevin O’Connor, D.O., [yes, an osteopathic doctor] attested to you being ‘fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency’ in a very superficial, and purely physical manner; however, we are worried about your mental abilities.”

And our worry is for good reason as Biden appears to have the mental faculties of an underripe persimmon. 

The letter addresses statistics from surveys that underscore concerns about Biden's ability to be in the highest office in the land:

66% of voters believe he should take a cognitive test

56% of voters are not confident he's mentally and physically fit to perform his duties as President.

64% of voters believe he has shown signs that he's too old to execute the duties of the presidency, including 60% of respondents over age 65.

A mere 33% of voters approve of the job that he has done as President.

Even the comrades over at the New York Times released a report detailing their many worries about Biden's mental fitness for office, in spite of the fact that he was never intellectually fit in the first place.

“The increased scrutiny surrounding your cognitive state has been fueled by your recent public appearances, during which you shuffle your feet when you walk, often slur your words, lose your train of thought, have trouble summoning names, and appear momentarily confused,” the letter stated. “All of this was exemplified during your most recent trip to the Middle East, where you claimed that we must ‘keep alive the truth and honor of the Holocaust,’ among other things.”

Yeah, that may have been the overall gaffe champion of all time.

The letter also addressed many instances when Biden made embarrassing statements about U.S. policy that had to quickly be walked back by the people behind the curtain who are actually running the office of the president.

Jackson listed clear diagnostic examples that indicate evidence of "mental decline" according to the Alzheimer's Association's definition, which include "changes in mood and personality," "confusion with time and place[s]," and forgetfulness.

Jackson suggested on Twitter this week that the White House doctor might be trying to hide information from the public about Biden’s cognitive state.

“I’ve NEVER seen a doctor who couldn’t answer simple questions about their patient – so why are we getting the SILENT treatment from Dr. O’Connor?” Jackson tweeted. “The White House is afraid of a question about Biden’s cognitive decline. They can’t keep hiding it forever!”

Perhaps the Biden administration will change the definition of mental decline, after all, they did it with the definition of recession, woman, man, and free speech. But it's also possible that they no longer need him and are thinking of replacing him with someone with a functioning cerebral cortex.

Kim Jong Un ready to fight US and "eliminate" South Korea

Corpulent Leader for Life of North Korea Kim Jong Un is now threatening to "eliminate" South Korea and claims the is ready for battle with the United States and isn't afraid to have any of his people die for his cause. He made this speech to mark the 69th anniversary of the armistice deal that ceased the fighting in the Korean War.

Fat Kim made his first public appearance in nearly three weeks. His speech was one of his bellicose in rhetoric against South Korea since President Yoon Suk Yeol, a conservative, took office in May. 

Yoon pledged to take a tough line toward Pyongyang.

Kim said that  “US imperialists are pushing the South Korean authorities into a suicidal confrontation” with his nation, the state’s official Korean Central News Agency reported Thursday.

A man does not win NCAA's "Woman of the Year" for some reason

Thomas answers the question: "How many testicles do you sport?"

Lia [formally Will] Thomas may have changed his name and swimming status, but he has not changed his biological sex, his genital gear [twig and berries], and his XY chromosome combination that is present in every cell in his body. According to some female swimmers, Thomas hasn't even changed his sexual attraction to women. He has merely changed what he claims to be: a female.

Thomas swam as a male up until his senior year for the University of Pennsylvania. He finished out his senior year on the women's team and although he was a mediocre male swimmer, he destroyed the women with his race times. That's because he is a man and thus has bigger lung capacity, strength, wingspan, and he even has his own built-in rudder.

Thomas was nominated by UPenn earlier this month but since rejected as the Ivy League's nominee for the NCAA's "Woman of the Year." The award recognizes "female student-athletes who have exhausted their eligibility and distinguished themselves in their community, in athletics and in academics throughout their college careers.” 

But Lia Thomas is not a female no matter what he claims but he sure as hell is a narcissistic, selfish piece of crap for beating up on women athletes who excel in their category.

The Ivy League, comprised of Penn, Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, Princeton University and Yale University, chose as its nominee fencing champion Sylvie Binder of Columbia University/Barnard College, because she actually is a woman and knows it.

Binder, who hails from Armonk, New York, is a three-time first team all-American who won the NCAA women’s foil title in 2019, and the bronze medal in 2018 and 2022. She finished her undergraduate college education with a 3.91 grade point average. Not too shabby.

In her bio after winning a Leadership and Excellence Award, Binder wrote, “To my family and their unconditional love and support for the past 5 years: Dad, Mom, Abby, and Zach, I owe it all to you.”

And for all the podium losses NCAA women lost unfairly, they owe it all to Lia Thomas. A dude, not good enough to compete successfully against other dudes. 

The NCAA needs to do some soul-searching of their own to have allowed a man to compete against women in the first place.

Hutchinson's chats show she's as credible as AOC's Green New Deal math

Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony at the Jan. 6 "investigation" panel that paints the Trump White House as complicit and guilty as hell over the so-called insurrection, is in direct conflict of the chats she had prior to her appearance at the kangaroo court.

Hutchinson was the person who told the since-debunked story that former President Trump tried to seize control of the wheel of the presidential SUV that was being driven by a Secret Service agent. She wasn't in the car, but that's what she was told. In other words, that's what is known as hearsay and in a real court of law would be inadmissible as evidence. But in a kangaroo court, the defendant doesn't get a chance to defend himself and all the "witnesses" are stacked up against him.

The Federalist said that it has since obtained private communications from Ms. Hutchinson that span from December 2020 to May of this year, however, she hasn't responded to the printing of her communications thus far.

The gist of the report was that “Hutchinson commiserated with other targets of the probe about how little information she had about any wrongdoing that day, and lamented how corrupt the politicized committee was. Far from being upset with Trump, Hutchinson repeatedly spoke in favor of him and his presidency.”

Hutchinson was subpoenaed in November of 2021 by House Speaker Nancy "Hands-a-Flyin'" Pelosi’s hand-picked House Select Committee investigating the Capitol's mostly peaceful protest.

The Federalist report said Hutchinson referred to the panel as a “phony committee” six days after being subpoenaed and told a former White House staff she would have little to tell the panel. She said, around the same time, that her testimony would have nothing to offer and she even made a vulgar reference to Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson (MS) the panel's chair, as per the report.

The report stated Hutchinson praised a November 2021 tweet from a former colleague mocking someone’s belief that President Joe Biden won the presidential election.

“When we win again, we’re making her comms director Or press sec,” she wrote.

Private messages showed her consistent alignment with Trump supporters. “I would rather shoot myself dead into the Potomac than see marine one flying around this city without 45 again,” she wrote about three months after the mostly peaceful protest, according to the report.

In November of last year, she was using the so-called incursion  as a laugh line, according to the report, in a message referencing a friend’s apartment in a building called Park Chelsea. “Let’s have an insurrection at parc Chelsea,” she wrote. “How about … jan 6, 2023?”

Messages showed her joking over which pro-Trump image she might use as a background when giving video testimony to the panel, the report said.

Hutchinson referred to RINOs Rep. Liz Cheney (WY) and Adam "Sniff, Sniff" Kinzinger (IL) as a "crop of losers," whose egos are too [f**king] big" and consider themselves "The REPUBLICAN MARTYRS,” according to the report.

“I think Liz being the ‘future of the GOP’ is a massive stretch,” she wrote, according to the Federalist report. “I think she does have the power to cement the anti-Trump, RINO movement and really capitalize off it on a national scale. She’ll never ever turn the tides in her favor. Ever.”

“Even if Trump were to fall off the face of the Earth, her neocon policies are not where the base’s ideological politics currently are nor will head,” she wrote.

The Federalist report stated that there were messages from May of this year in response to media reports that suggested aides such as Hutchinson would be the key to getting dirt on Trump.

“I wanted to be like … the members LITERALLY told you they’re taking advantage of us … So shut the [f**k] up and stop tweeting about me … leave me alone … there is no story here,” Hutchinson wrote, the report said.

The report said Hutchinson said Jim Acosta [who loves Jim Acosta] of CNN told her: Thank you for your bravery and courage. We and the American people look forward to learning more from your testimony.”

Hutchinson then told the person she messaged that she had “about twenty snarky responses typed to respond back but just let it go … Like stop WARPING everything you [f**king] [jackass] … and also I couldn’t give less of a [f**k] what cnn thinks of me. Truly,” according to the report.

The Jan. 6 committee has proven to be an embarrassing clusterfrack [sic] and the American people are beginning to see this.

Fake Conservative, phony Christian and anti-Semitic butt munch says: "Jews are not welcome in Conservative movement"

A consultant for a Republican candidate did a livestream video where he stated Tuesday evening that the United States is “an explicitly Christian country” and conservatives belong to “an explicitly Christian movement.” [H/T The Jerusalem Post]

The consultant, Andrew Torba, is the CEO of Gab, a social media network that Brain Flushings used to post on until this story came out. Anyway, Torba consults for Doug Mastriano, who is running for governor of Pennsylvania as a Republican.

It was reported recently that Mastriano spent $5,000 on advertising on Gab and also paid for "campaign consulting" from Gab, with users programmed to automatically follow him, The Post noted.

The outlet said that Torba claimed that many other candidates have been running ads on Gab, but didn't name a single one. He said in the video:

“This is the most important election of the 2022 midterms because Doug is an outspoken Christian, We are going to build a coalition of Christian nationalists, of Christians, of Christian candidates, at the state, local and federal levels and we’re going to take this country back for the glory of God.”

The Gab founder then became very non-Christian in his sentiment. If Jesus were to comment on his words, He would have clearly challenged Torba's lack of Christian morals:

“My policy is not to conduct interviews with reporters who aren’t Christian or with outlets who aren’t Christian and Doug has a very similar media strategy where he does not do interviews with these people. He does not talk to these people. He does not give press access to these people.”

“These people are dishonest. They’re liars. They’re a den of vipers and they want to destroy you. My typical conversation with them when they email me is ‘repent and accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior.’ I take it as an opportunity to try and convert them.”

Imagine an anti-Semite, racist like Torba trying to convert people to Christianity. 

Torba called Mastriano’s Jewish opponent, Josh Shapiro, a “Soros puppet.” Soros is a Jew by birth and an atheist by choice.

Ben Shapiro

Regarding non-Christian – actually, Jewish – conservative commentators Ben Shapiro and Dave Rubin, he said:

“These people aren’t conservative. They’re not Christian. They don’t share our values. They have inverted values from us as Christians. So don’t fall for the bait of Populism Inc, don’t fall for the bait of this pseudo-conservatism, big tent nonsense. This is a Christian movement. This movement needs to be centered on the gospel and truth of God’s word and of Jesus Christ, our lord and savior and king. That is the only way that this is going to work…

“We don’t want people who are atheists. We don’t want people who are Jewish. We don’t want people who are, you know, nonbelievers, agnostic, whatever. This is an explicitly Christian movement because this is an explicitly Christian country.

“We’re not saying we’re going to deport all these people or whatever. You’re free to stay here. You’re not going to be forced to convert or anything like this because that’s not biblical whatsoever. But you’re going to enjoy the fruits of living in a Christian society under Christian laws and under a Christian culture and you can thank us later.”

This guy is a raging maniac. 

Furthermore, “Ben Shapiro and other non-believers are not allowed to have a prominent voice in our movement because they don’t share our values…They’re trying to subvert Christian nationalism. Turn off Ben Shapiro. This is not a Judeo-Christian movement. Those two terms are actually contradictory.”

If anything, Ben Shapiro often speaks and writes about Judeo-Christian ethics and values, which he strongly promotes. The Daily Wire co-founder, Jeremy Boreing, is a devout Christian as is Andrew Klavan, Michael Knowles, Candace Owens, and Matt Walsh. 

Torba is a pinheaded pile of crap whose religion isn't really Christianity--although he hides behind it--his religion is hate and fear of the "other." He doesn't even want you to hear Ben Shapiro or anyone who is the "other."

Mastriano obviously has bad judgment to have picked this guy to speak on his behalf. But most likely, he picked him because he agrees with those anti-Semitic sentiments.

Conservatism is not about any one religion, it's about freedom OF religion, to practice religion of your choice or not practice religion at all. Torba is a moron tho think that on Christians can be true conservatives. One thing for certain is that he doesn't know the first thing about conservatism and even less about Christianity.

Chris F. Cuomo announces his comeback, sans Q-Tip

Chris Fredo Cuomo is making a comeback to the boob tube announcing on Tuesday that he would be getting an anchor role on NewsNation, formerly known as WGN America.

Fredo, as he likes to be called, made the announcement on NewsNation's host Dan Abrams, a former ABC News colleague of Cuomo's. The program will start in the fall and run in his old Comedy News Network time slot, the New York Post reports.

“I’m going to come to NewsNation and I want to build something special here,” he said, noting that his new employer would be … somewhat less prestigious than his old one as it will not be pumped into airports to insult the intelligence of people with functional cortexes. 

“I had decided that I can’t go back to what people see as ‘the big game,'” Fredo said. “I don’t think I can make a difference there. I think we need insurgent media. I think we need outlets that aren’t fringe and just trying to fill their pockets.”

@ChrisCuomo is joining NewsNation: The cable news veteran believes he can provide viewers a break from America’s “binary” media when his new show launches this fall. More: https://t.co/TXSo1HxHWI pic.twitter.com/5M9fl1JVx 

— NewsNation (@NewsNation) July 27, 2022

Cuomo will make a difference. He will do what he did at CNN, where his interactions with his disgraced brother, former New York Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo, and Don Lemon, a fake news festival of fun and chuckles.

Fredo got booted from CNN in December after a scandal broke about how he flushed any journalistic integrity he may have had remaining down the toilet. He did all he could to prop up his brother during the COVID pandemic in which the former governor sent thousands of elderly COVID positive patients to nursing homes where they infected the frail residents and led tot he death of thousands in the state. 

And who can forget the giant Q-Tip prop Fredo used to poke brotherly fun at Andrew? They laughed it up while people were dying in droves? CNN allowed that garbage to go on for much too long, and it eventually took a boatload of scandals to bring them both down.

Dan Abrams, to his journalistic credit, confronted Fredo about the CNN termination--his claim that he “never made calls to the press” regarding a number of sexual harassment claims against Andrew. It was later proved that he did and lied about it  and Abrams said that Cuomo did contact the media about his brother’s situation.

“You said, ‘I never made calls to the press about my brother’s situation,'” Abrams revealed. “[But] you did make calls to the press about your brother’s situation.”

“But I think the distinction has a meaningful difference,” Fredo bull-shot back. “The concern would be not that I called you and said ‘What do you think’s going on here?’ It’s me calling you and saying ‘Hey tonight in your segment, I hope you remember that,'” he said.

CNN initially only suspended Cuomo over some texts he had regarding his brother's sexual harassment scandals, but they eventually fired him after he was accused of sexual misconduct by a "reliable source."

Cuomo is currently suing CNN for $125 million over breach of contract but if there is any justice in the world, he would lose.

But now he's no longer CNN's problem and frequent fliers will not have to tolerate his antics. It's a wonder NewsNation hired this charlatan in the first place.

J.B. Pritzker's toilet scandal may come back to bite him on his gargantuan butt

Democrat Governor J.B. Pritzker (IL) has hinted at wobbling for the 2024 presidential election if Biden is still claiming to run [run Joe, please run]. 

The big guy has said it many times on tv and online that he is running for re-election as the filed governor of the "land of Lincoln." However, since nobody can be worse than Joe and his giggling word salad server, Kamala Hahaharris, as the nation does a death spiral into recession, Pritzker may believe that he can fail less worse than the idiots running the Democratic mental institution.

Democratic governors have seen that both Pritzker and California's failed Governor Gavin "Jellhead" Newsom are positioning themselves for a potential run in 2024, as Biden has deteriorated like an 80-year-old McNugget.

But if the corpulent Pritzker decides to challenge or replace what's his name, you know, the thing, Pritzker's toilet problem may come back to bite him on the, uh, you know, the thing again.

Before the big bad billionaire became governor of Illinois, he and his beautiful wife, M.K. Pritzker, allegedly removed the toilets from their second Chicago mansion they bought in 2007 for $3.7 million to write it off as "uninhabitable" on a property tax appeal. [Imagine what those toilets had seen in their hay day.]

Cook County only taxes vacant properties at 10 percent of their market value. The property was reported by the Chicago Sun-Times as being uninhabited and allowed to fall into disrepair. 

A 2018 report from Cook County Inspector General Patrick Blanchard explains how in 2015, the Pritzkers hired a contracting company Bulley & Andrews to remove five of the toilets from their second mansion in order to allegedly take advantage of a super low tax rate for uninhabitable properties. [Fun Fact: Sometime Hunter Biden doesn't use a toilet.]

As a result of the mansion’s crappers being lightened before the inspection, the Cook County assessor’s office "lowered the 6,378-square-foot mansion's assessed value from $6.3 million to about $1.1 million."

Pritzker was here

So not only is Pritzker a rich fat cat who is very much of both, he is also a fraudulent conniver who actually needs 5 toilets at all times.

Following the assessment, Bulley & Andrews was hired again to reinstall a single toilet in the now-governor’s "hangout/meeting area."

Blanchard wrote that the couple had engaged in a "scheme to defraud" the county that "resulted in the property owner ultimately receiving property tax refunds totaling $132,747.18 for the years 2012, 2013 and 2014, as well as additional tax savings of $198,684.85 for the years 2015 and 2016" — or around $330,000 total.

Additionally, Blanchard accused the governor’s brother-in-law and wife’s personal assistant of making "false representations" to the county assessor regarding the toilets’ removal and the mansion’s condition in sworn affidavits.

The scandal screwed up Pritzker's run for governor in 2018, and he pledged to pay back the $330,000 in property taxes and hoped the voters had 'Biden memories'.

Even with the controversy, Pritzker’s toilet troubles did not hinder him from unseating Republican former Gov. Bruce Rauner in 2018, except the seat had to be made several feet wider.

Brittney Griner suddenly stands for America

Brittney Griner returned to a Russian courtroom Tuesday and her defense team is claiming she uses marijuana to treat pain. She was caught with marijuana vape cartridge with CBD oils in it at a Moscow airport in February and has since been languishing in a Russian prison. She pleaded guilty to the drug possession charge but said she didn't intentionally break Russia's anti-drug laws. She faces up to ten years in prison.

Griner is one of the tallest WNBA basketball players, standing at 6 feet 9 inches tall.

Griner came to the forefront of public attention in 2020, after she voiced her opposition to the playing of the National Anthem before WNBA games. She and many of her teammates also began kneeling while it was played because Colin Kaepernick, a mediocre NFL football player used the same ploy to try boosting his career.

But Griner also has a spotty past. In 2015 the WNBA suspended her and her ex-wife, Glory Johnson, for seven games after the not-so loving couple got into a domestic dispute. They were both later arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.

In 2020, Griner faced suspension for an on-court brawl she had gotten into, and during the George Floyd riots, she and her teammates refused to take the floor for a preseason game which was eventually canceled.

She had this to say: "I honestly feel we should not play the national anthem during our season. I think we should take that much of a stand." She also said that she "does not believe that the national anthem should be played at sporting events"

But that was then.

Several days prior to Griner's guilty plea, she wrote to our so-called President Joe Biden (D) begging him to use his apparent power to get her butt out of jail and back home where she is free to kneel for the National Anthem once again and beat up on her wife.

In her letter, she wrote in part, “On the 4th of July, our family normally honors the service of those who fought for our freedom, including my father, who is a Vietnam war veteran. It hurts thinking about how I usually celebrate this day because freedom means something completely different to me this year.”

Griner’s defense argued she used  medical marijuana to treat pain from injuries like many other professional athletes. But medical marijuana is against Russian law and Griner should have researched that before traveling there, after all, it isn't as if there exists no pain treatment alternatives.

"With the prescription in place, Brittney may have used it for medical but not recreational purposes," her lawyer Maria Blagovolina said in court, as per Reuters.

Another hearing is scheduled for Wednesday.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said Thursday the U.S. laws legalizing cannabis in some states have no bearing on what happens in Russia. 

"You understand, if drugs are legalized in the United States — in a number of states — and this is done for a long time, and now the whole country will become drug addicted. This does not mean that all other countries are following the same path," Zakharova said.

Russian media has speculated that Griner could be exchanged for Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout, who is imprisoned in the U.S. Russian authorities have said that no swap could take place until Griner is sentenced.

A Russian court has authorized Griner’s detention until Dec. 20.
