JoAnna Mendoza (D) Definitely Doesn't Support Defunding the Police, She Just Cashes Checks From Groups That Do

The presumptive Democratic nominee in Arizona's Sixth Congressional District, comrade JoAnna Mendoza, is heroically attempting to distance herself from her past comments calling to defund police. At the same time, she's holding fundraisers with far-left groups that have called to defund police, the conservative outlet, The Washington Free Beacon review found. 

Consistency is for losers, after all.

On Friday, for example, Mendoza headlined a big-ticket fundraiser in Los Angeles's affluent Brentwood neighborhood, cohosted by the Heart of LA Democratic Club. The club, which describes its mission as "championing feminist leadership and women's full representation in politics and policy," repeatedly backed the Defund the Police movement. 

In a since-deleted June 2020 tweet, it praised the Los Angeles Black Lives Matter chapter's "compelling presentation to LA City Council on defunding the police" as "a big step towards progress." The club backed a bill to defund police around the same time, and one of its officers, Sarah Kate Levy, said she "see[s] clearly the need to defund." 

She says, "I don't support defunding the police" while raising money with people who do.

Months earlier, in January, Mendoza held another Brentwood fundraiser with the Los Angeles-based Stonewall Democratic Club, which signed a 2020 letter calling for the "divestment of public funding from police" and a resolution calling for "budget reallocation" from police departments "to programs that end systemic, abusive, and unlawful use of lethal force on Black and Brown People." The move, the group said, was about joining "the struggle to end white supremacy, institutional racism, individual bigotry, and mass denial." 

Mendoza, of course, was just there for the finger food, and definitely not the ideology. 

The fundraisers come as Mendoza attempts to distance herself from her prior support for anti-police policies in her campaign against incumbent Republican congressman Juan Ciscomani in a district President Donald Trump carried narrowly in 2024. In 2020, when the comrade ran unsuccessfully for Arizona's State Senate, an audience member at a virtual town hall asked her whether she would "defund the police," to which she replied that she supports "the reallocation of funding" away from law enforcement. 

Reallocation. Such a gentle, non-threatening word for taking money from cops and giving it to someone else.

"Police reform is just one aspect of addressing systemic racism in our nation, and specifically here in Arizona," Mendoza said. "I support the reallocation of funding to programs that would allow people to live their best lives, such as the social service programs, such as housing, public education, health care, ensuring that we're addressing economic stability and environmental safety." 

In that same virtual town hall, Mendoza accused police officers of violating their "oath to protect and serve their communities" and appeared to justify the anti-police riots that swept the United States following George Floyd's death. "There are hundreds, hundreds of deaths at the hands—murders—at the hands of police brutality," she said. "And so what we're seeing right now from folks is we're seeing the demand for change through the protests, through the civil unrest. We are seeing that folks no longer trust law enforcement agencies who, by the way, have taken an oath to protect and serve their communities and have clearly violated that oath time and time again."

When Fox News reported on Mendoza's comments in March, her campaign lied that she "has been on the record for years that police need MORE resources to do their jobs, not less, including body cameras and training," adding that "she has repeatedly stated that she does not support defunding the police."

Mendoza also attempted to walk back her comments about the "reallocation of funding" several months following her initial remarks, saying during a different town hall that she did "not support defunding the police." The Arizona Police Association endorsed Ciscomani in May, not long after the "reallocation" video came to light. Apparently the cops can read. 

Policing is not the only area of inconsistency for Mendoza. Shortly after the Free Beacon reported that she had a net worth of up to $4.7 million, according to her 2025 financial disclosure, Mendoza issued a new financial disclosure claiming she is worth no more than $336,000. The new filing also revealed that she had concealed ownership of a rental property in Tucson worth between $250,000 and $500,000. 

This is how socialism works: those in power have the money while everyone else is equal . . .  equally poor.

School Pays $95,000 After Punishing Student for Charlie Kirk Tribute

There are moments that reveal with almost embarrassing clarity the state of institutional America today, and this is one of them. Gabby Stout has just secured a ninety-five-thousand-dollar settlement from her school, Ardrey Kell High School in Charlotte, North Carolina. The offense? The school had accused her of vandalizing the campus “spirit rock” with a tribute to the assassinated conservative activist Charlie Kirk and had placed her under police investigation.

Only two days after Kirk’s killing, Stout had obtained explicit permission from the school to paint a tribute on the rock, a surface routinely decorated by students. Together with two friends she wrote “Freedom 1776” and “Live Like Kirk—John 11:25,” surrounded by hearts and an American flag. Hours later the school painted over her message and sent a notice to the entire student body declaring that the rock had been vandalized with an unauthorized statement that violated the student conduct code. Law enforcement, it said, had been contacted and an investigation opened.

Stout was pulled from class, interrogated, and made to write a statement. Her phone was searched without her parents’ consent. The following day the school quietly altered its speech policy, closed the investigation, and announced that she would face no discipline. Yet it refused to issue any statement clearing her name. Her parents say the episode left their daughter exposed to threats and bullying, for which the school offered no apology. Only a month later did the institution reverse itself, withdrawing the vandalism accusation and admitting that law enforcement had never been involved.

The Alliance Defending Freedom brought a complaint charging that the school had violated Stout’s First, Fourth, Fifth, and Fourteenth Amendment rights. The filing highlighted the obvious moral double standard. When George Floyd died in 2020 the same rock had been painted with messages supporting Black Lives Matter. Those expressions, it seems, raised no alarms.In a statement to Fox News, Stout expressed the hope that the settlement would illuminate the rights of students:

“I hope they learn that students don’t leave their faith or their free speech rights when they walk into school. I didn’t do anything wrong, as they now admit. I was sharing a message I believe in, a message that inspired me, and a message that honored Charlie Kirk by pointing people to the hope for salvation through Jesus Christ. And they made me feel like a criminal for doing this. School officials can’t just silence a student because they don’t like what the student says or believes.”

ADF Senior Counsel Travis Barham put the matter plainly. “Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools should be ashamed at how it treated Gabby. She did everything right, and they did everything wrong. She got permission, and she painted an uplifting message of faith. They censored her speech, publicly denounced her, and then punished her for expressing her views.”

Beyond the financial settlement, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education has now approved new speech policies intended to clarify the rights of students. One can only hope the lesson is learned. When institutions treat a young woman’s act of remembrance and faith as a criminal matter while indulging other political expressions, they do not merely embarrass themselves. They expose the selective authoritarianism that now passes for education in too many American schools.

Texas Dem Senate Candidate James Talarico Proudly Rebrands As "Talafreako," Launches Official Freak Merch Line

AUSTIN, TX—In a bold strategic masterstroke that political experts are calling "the most normal thing a Democrat has done all week," Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico has fully embraced his new nickname "Talafreako," graciously bestowed upon him by Republican opponent Ken Paxton.

Why did Paxton do so? Because Talarico freaking is.

The progressive leftist is now selling "I'm a Talafreako" T-shirts on his campaign website, proving once and for all that nothing says "serious Senate contender" like turning an insult into your entire brand identity, and while one can claim to be a socialist, it's capitalism that paved the way.

While speaking at a general election kickoff event in Houston this week, Talarico encouraged supporters to purchase a T-shirt, saying, "I also saw that Ken Paxton started calling me ‘Talafreako,’ and I am proud to announce that we have ‘I'm a Talafreako’ T-shirts on our website. So, when you go home tonight, make sure you grab one." 

After Talarico exited the stage, the crowd at the Houston rally began chanting "Talafreako" repeatedly, in what observers described as either unbridled enthusiasm or the auditory equivalent of a cry for help.

Despite the bravado, some believe that, with Talarico already having to deal with a series of highly controversial resurfaced comments, the move will backfire with moderate Texas voters. Talarico’s prior comments include saying that "God is nonbinary," that there are six genders and that the Bible supports abortion.

He offered no examples, no proof of his blasphemous and biological claims. For example, he said in 2021 during a Texas House debate on a bill restricting transgender athletes, that there are six biological sexes. “Modern science recognizes that there are many more than two biological sexes — in fact, there are six.” This cretin was referring to chromosomal variations (e.g., XX, XY, XXY, XYY, XXX, XYY). Critics called it unscientific or an overreach to argue sex is a spectrum; he has since clarified there are two sexes (men and women) while noting rare chromosomal conditions deserve dignity.

In 2021 he said "God is nonbinary." In the same or related transgender policy debate, he stated: “God is both masculine and feminine and everything in between. God is nonbinary.” He later explained it as intentionally provocative to mean God transcends human categories, citing Galatians (“in Christ there is neither male nor female”). 

Republicans and critics viewed it as insulting to Christianity or Jesus and even to God the Father.

In 2020 our genius lefty claimed that racism is a "virus." After Ahmaud Arbery’s killing. He posted on X equating racism to a virus and wrote: “White skin gives me and every white American immunity from the virus. But we spread it wherever we go—through our words, our actions, and our systems. We don’t have to be showing symptoms—like a white hood or a Confederate flag—to be contagious.” 

He called for diagnosing it within ourselves and supporting #BlackLivesMatter. 

When restrictions on transgender participation was proposed regarding men in women's sports, this idiot called parental concerns a "far-right conspiracy."

He criticized Christian nationalism, and supported progressive policies on abortion and immigration.

A strategist familiar with the Senate race remarked to Fox News Digital that "Talarico can’t run from his record of supporting every freaky left-wing policy under the sun."

"Selling merch that says ‘Talafreako’ on it is just going to remind people that he is on the wrong side of every 80/20 issue," the strategist said, adding, "It’s so weird."

The thing is, the dude really is a freak and if Texas votes him in, they will learn their mistake the hard way.

Dems Use Obese Woman to Court Male Voters

She's hot, but then again, she's always hot

After four disastrous years and a poor showing in the 2024 election, the Democratic Party is on a mission to win back male voters. However, their strategy has raised eyebrows, with many questioning how they plan to attract young men.

Young male voters, especially those under 30, are increasingly abandoning the Democratic Party. Polls reveal a widening gender gap, with men trending conservative while women continue to support Democrats. 

According to a recent Harvard Youth Poll, approval of Congressional Democrats among 18- to 29-year-olds has dropped 19 points since 2017, falling from 42 to 23 percent. Meanwhile, approval of Congressional Republicans in the same age group has increased slightly, from 28 to 29 percent. 

This is the first time in years that Republicans have surpassed Democrats in youth approval ratings.

The Left's conception of bright and beautiful

Are you Curious to know the left’s strategy to win back male voters? Hiring a female Democrat activist to attract men back to the party. While you might expect them to pick a young, attractive woman to appeal to young men, they instead chose morbidly obese left-wing content creator Olivia Julianna.

Not only is she about 500 pounds, or a quarter of a ton, but Julianna said that she has spent a lot of time on college campuses and found that young men, particularly frat boys, are almost always pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, and support Black Lives Matter.

What has she been smoking?  

“I spend a lot of time on college campuses . . . I love young men. I love frat guys, and in that, I realize, even the ones who identify as conservative are almost always pro-choice. [Yeah, sure.] Almost always pro-gay marriage. You'd be surprised at the number of them who supported Black Lives Matter. [Yes, we all would be surprised.] I feel like people kind of just lump them into this box when the truth is, again, a lot of them are with us on the issues. They're just not part of our coalition because they feel like they're not welcome," Julianna told Micah Erfan during an interview.

However, her claims are so full of crap, they would make a farmer's manure-spreader break down.

According to a Gallup poll, only 49 percent of men identify as pro-choice, with support declining further among younger age groups. Additionally, a Pew Research survey found that just 42 percent of white men support the Black Lives Matter movement, while 82 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning voters oppose it.

If you enjoy my blog, feel free to toss a virtual coffee my way on Buy Me a Coffee – it’s like a high-five with caffeine, and coffee keeps me focused. No pressure, it's your call.

Alex Marlow, host of the “Alex Marlow Show,” criticized the Democrats’ strategy, saying it’s telling that they chose to feature someone “500 pounds” claiming to love frat guys to appeal to young men. He also argued that the left’s approach is ineffective and pointed out the stark contrast to when Democrats previously relied on major celebrities to promote their message.

Men tend to be attracted to women who weigh less than them and who don't lie whenever their lips move.

BLM leaders call for violence following Daniel Penny verdict

The New York subway hero who is white, went on trial for intervening to protect passengers on the city's F train [that I have taken literally hundreds of times] when a man, who is black, threatened to kill people on board the train. Daniel Penny, a former Marine put Jordan Neely in a headlock with help from several black passengers, and sadly Neely died. "I'm gonna kill a mother-effer today, and I don't care if I go to jail," Neely yelled when Penny stepped in.

Neely had 42 previous arrests in 7 years. His family was not involved in his life and he was homeless, but his father is hoping to cash in on his estranged son's death. 

What a dad.

Now the Daniel Penny verdict has been met with threats by at least one livid high-profile activist hoping he would be convicted of killing Jordan Neely, who was threatening people on a New York City subway train last year.

After Penny was found not guilty of the criminally negligent homicide of Neely, the founder of Black Lives Matter (BLM) of Greater New York, Hawk Newsome, called on black people to attack white people in the city--exactly the same thing that Neely was threatening to do when Penny stepped in to stop him.

“We need some black vigilantes,” Newsome said during a press conference. “People wanna jump up and choke us and kill us for being loud? How about we do the same when they attempt to oppress us.”

The trial has also provided an excuse for vandalism.

Last week, law enforcement said that nine suspects who boarded the northbound F train at the Neptune Avenue station around 4:24 a.m. allegedly plastered the interior of the car with messages that said: “A man was lynched here,” according to AMNY. The statements are believed to be a reference to Neely, who died after Penny subdued him in a chokehold to keep him from hurting other passengers.

Despite Neely's official cause of death of asphyxiation, forensic pathologist Dr. Satish Chundru testified for the defense that Penny’s chokehold did not result in Neely’s death.

Chundru testified that Neely’s death was the result of “the combined effects of sickle cell crisis, the schizophrenia, the struggle and restraint, and the synthetic marijuana,” Fox News reported. 

He explained that a person high on synthetic marijuana with schizophrenia can die while involved in a struggle, even without a chokehold being used. Dr. Chundru added that even if Neely hadn’t had those other health factors, he still would not have died from Penny’s chokehold.

Chundru stated that he did not consider the chokehold as the cause of death because there were other factors involved. He also noted inconsistencies in Neely's medical records. Specifically, he mentioned that the records showed inconsistent bruising on Neely's neck and described the presence of "almost negligible" tiny bleeding spots on his eyelids. Chundru concluded that these inconsistencies did not match what would be expected from a fatal chokehold, according to a report by the New York Post at the time.

Jurors spent most of last week deliberating whether Penny was responsible for "recklessly" causing the death of Neely as part of a charge of manslaughter in the second degree. On Friday, they informed Judge Maxwell Wiley that they could not reach a unanimous decision on that count of the indictment, leading Wiley to permit Assistant District Attorney Dafna Yoran to drop the charge. This allowed the jury to consider the lesser charge of criminally negligent homicide.

When the jury reconvened on Monday to deliberate on this lesser charge, it took them less than an hour to find Penny not guilty.

Insofar as Hawk Newsome's call for violence against white people, that is not protected by the First Amendment and he needs to be held accountable for his rhetoric.

Google fires 28 employees after growing a pair

It's beginning to look a lot like companies across America are getting fed up with the "kids" calling the shots or simply acting out, as if they own the company. An example of how the adults took charge was with Google's response to the way Hamasshole supporters are disrupting everything they can.

Although Google has historically supported such woke ideology like DEI and BLM, it finally grew a set of balls, primarily because it had to for its own sake.

It might have been the final straw when a clique of terror-loving Googlers staged a mega-tantrum in the company’s New York and California offices over work their employer does for you know, the Jews of Israel. Google wasted no time to respond and terminate 28 Hamas-supporting racists involved in the disruptions.

“They took over office spaces, defaced our property, and physically impeded the work of other Googlers. Their behavior was unacceptable, extremely disruptive, and made co-workers feel threatened,” the company’s vice president of global security said.

Good for Google.

The “protest” consisted of infantile actions such as office sit-ins and childish demands on a top exec’s whiteboard. 

Overall, their behavior was akin to the Hamassholes blocking the Golden Gate Bridge last Monday, blocking access to vehicles and fortunately nobody was being transported by ambulance for emergency medical intervention. The useful idiots, many of whom would not survive a full minute if they were doing this in Gaza, were allegedly funded by Iran. [H/T The Geller Report.]

The Daily Wire also reported on Google's internal anti-Semitism including the words "kill all Jews" written on a bathroom wall inside one of their offices. A Jewish employee was also assaulted by pro-Hamas protesters on one of their campuses.

In Manhattan, the Hamas-supporters occupied the tenth floor of Google's offices in Chelsea as part of support for the Seattle office for what they called "No Tech for Genocide Day of Action." These were obviously computer geeks and not English majors or minors as they don't understand the definition of the word 'genocide.'

The protesters demanded [LOL] that Google pull out of a 41.2 billion "Project Nimbus" contract with Israel in which Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services provide AI and cloud-computing services for the Israeli government and the IDF.

If it were up to these infants at Google, Israel would be defenseless and they would have their genocide, except to the people it was tried on once before by a turd named Hitler.

Am Yisrael Chai.

US has N. Korea defector in custody after his months of detainment in the hermit nation

North Korea has released Travis King since holding him in detainment since July.

King has been held by North Korean authorities since July 18, when he reportedly made a dash toward the darkness of NoKo while with a tour group as he ran into the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) that is between North and South Korea.

The government of North Korea stated on Wednesday that it was planning the return of U.S. Army Pvt. Travis King to U.S. custody according to state-run news agencies.

"The relevant organ of the [Democratic People's Republic of Korea] decided to expel Travis King, a soldier of the U.S. Army who illegally intruded into the territory of the DPRK, under the law of the Republic," state media outlet Korean Central News Agency wrote, according to translations provided by Yonhap News Agency.

Since King's capture, there has been no contact with him and officials from North Korea have been intentionally vague when responding to U.S.'s begging for his return.

The incident occurred after the private finished approximately two months in a South Korean detention facility after he physically assaulted South Korean locals, according to a senior defense official who spoke with Fox News on Tuesday. He made it clear while being held in detention that he did not want to return to the United States, according to the official. 

King was released on July 10 and sent home to Fort Bliss where he faced additional military discipline under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) and possible discharge from the military. He has faced no less than two additional assault-related allegations in South Korea.

He was fined $3,950 by the court in February as he was convicted of assaulting an unidentified person. He also damaged a police vehicle in Seoul in October of last year, according to a transcript of the verdict which was obtained by the Associated Press.

The deserter admitted to crossing into North Korea according to their state media and he allegedly told them he did so because of "inhuman maltreatment and racial discrimination within the U.S. Army."

He was evidently upset that unlike BLM, he didn't get away with the violence he unleashed on people.

"During the investigation, Travis King confessed that he had decided to come over to the DPRK as he harbored ill feeling against inhuman maltreatment and racial discrimination within the U.S. Army," KCNA reported. "He also expressed his willingness to seek refuge in the DPRK or a third country, saying that he was disillusioned at the unequal American society."

Yeah, sure. 

King's mother, in an apparent effort to help her son avoid being charged with a high crime, disputed the reports from North Korea, saying that her son had no motivation to defect to the totalitarian nation. 

Maybe he just did a Biden and accidentally tripped over the DMZ into the arms of North Korea.

BREAKING: We know who the suspect is in the Philly mass shooting and it begins with BLM

Fright night at the Carriker den

Brain Flushings is making an exception today in the case of the Philadelphia mass shooting that killed 5 and injured 2 children. The exception is that I will mention the suspect's name and photo because it's relevant to the political turmoil we see today.

The suspect wanted in the connection with the shooting in Southwest Philadelphia on Monday night is 40-year-old Kimbrady Watson Carriker. 

The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Carriker was arrested on Monday evening after her alleged mass shooting spree in the Kingsessing neighborhood.

As previously posted, Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw said cops responded to gunfire in the South 56th Street and Chester Avenue area shortly prior to 8:30 pm and in less than 10 minutes they had the suspect cornered in an alley on the 1600 block of South Frazier Street where she surrendered and arrested.

On Facebook, Carriker was seen posting in support of Black Lives Matter, and follows the Black Lives Matter Philly Facebook page. From her posts, it's obvious that she's mentally ill and caught up in hatred of people who are not like her.

"Black lives matter today; there will be jobs available. Equal opportunity finally. Just tell us where your quitting so we can send someone over," Carriker wrote in one Facebook comment responding to a story of workers, particularly non-black workers, going on a strike for Black Lives, so they can steal their jobs. 

Delightful.

Carriker has also made multiple posts showcasing guns and shooting, including resharing one post showing children shooting, as well as one of a person holding a flintlock pistol with the text "wherefor art thou opposition so I may slide upon thine block and runneth down on thee"

Yes, she's a delightful human being.

This is a breaking story with more to come.

Texas Gov. Abbott working to 'swiftly' pardon Sergeant convicted of murder in BLM riot

Well, the pressure from the people actually worked and Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) said on Saturday that he intends to pardon Army Sergeant Daniel Perry who was convicted of murder for shooting a Black Lives Matter rioter during an anti-police demonstration in 2020.

It was obvious that the shooting was done in self-defense, but Soros-backed District Attorneys don't believe self defense is an excuse.

"I am working as swiftly as Texas law allows regarding the pardon of Sgt. Perry," the Texas Republican tweeted Saturday along with a statement on how his office will go about a pardon. The pardon in his state must be recommended by the Board of Pardons and Paroles, so there's the one hurdle that could cause a problem.

"I have made that request and instructed the board to expedite its review," Abbott said.

The governor said he looks forward to signing the pardon as soon as it reaches his desk.

Sgt. Perry was convicted of murder on Friday for shooting a BLM rioter who was holding an AK-47 and pointed it towards him in a threatening manner. The Austin Police Department concluded in their investigation that Perry acted in self-defense.

Perry was stationed at Fort Hood at the time of the shooting. He was driving for Uber to make extra money in downtown Austin on the night of July 25, 2020, when he encountered a large crowd of protesters. They were illegally blocking city streets that night, according to police, as protesters in Austin and elsewhere had done during the weeks of rioting.

One of these protesters, Garrett Foster, 28, was brandishing an AK-47. Perry's lawyers said that the rioters surrounded his vehicle and began pounding on it and during the incident, Foster raised his weapon and aimed it at Sgt. Perry who, in self-defense, shot Foster before he could shoot Perry.

"When Garrett Foster pointed his AK-47 at Daniel Perry, Daniel had two tenths of a second to defend himself. He chose to live," Doug O’Connell, Perry's attorney, told Fox News Digital in a statement last year.

"It may be legal in Texas to carry an assault rifle in downtown Austin. It doesn’t make it a good idea. If you point a firearm at someone, you’re responsible for everything that happens next."

Abbott explained that Texas has one of the "strongest stand your ground" laws in the country that "cannot be "nullified by a jury or a progressive District Attorney." But tell that to the leftists who hate law and order and always take the side of rioters be they BLM or Antifa.

Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza, the George Soros-backed prosecutor who never saw a patriot he couldn't prosecute was the scumcrumpet who brought the case. He was widely criticized for pursuing charges against Perry and accused of malicious prosecution. The case has no merit, but like the Kyle Rittenhouse case where self-defense saved a young man's life, the left will go after these people because of who the criminals were.

"Self-defense is a God-given right, not a crime. Unfortunately, the Soros-backed DA in Travis County cares more about the radical agenda of dangerous Antifa and BLM mobs than justice," Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said in a statement to Fox News Digital following the Perry verdict.

"Right now we are completely focused on preparing for Daniel’s sentencing hearing," O'Connell told Fox News Digital following Abbott's tweet.

"I visited Daniel in jail this morning. As you might expect he is devastated. He spoke to me about his fears that he will never get to hug his mother again. He’s also crushed that this conviction will end his Army service; he loves being a Soldier."

Brain Flushings will follow this case and keep you apprised of the results.

MN "woman of the year" has the 'stones' to prove it

The State of Minnesota has just told women that they don't count as much as men after selecting their "woman of the year" who is a man which is not a woman. In fact, the dude that was selected, a guy whose name is Leigh Finke, looks like a guy in a dress who has as much femininity as Chuck Norris.

It's amazing that woman put up with this crap--it's an insult to their gender and it comes off like a twisted joke.

Leigh Finke has always fought to change the world for the better and he will beat you to a pulp if you give him grief about it. 

He grew up in the suburbs of Minneapolis and has always been interested in politics, while never planning to become a political candidate himself. But in November, after his first bid for public office, he became the first gender dysphoric man appointed to the Minnesota House of Representatives, after winning 81% of the vote in his district.

Finke has been an LGBTQ+ BLM activist most of his life.

He 'transitioned' [aka entering the realm of victimhood] in 2017 at which time he said politics began hitting "a lot closer to home." He claimed to have seen with his own eyes, national and coordinated attacks against the rights of dysphoric Americans and said that others in his community motivated him to represent Minnesota because there were scant people with DSM-V diagnoses in public office.

In less than six years, Finke went from being gay to thinking he was a woman and making the rest of Minnesota's actual women, seem less womanly. 

Men who believe they are women are beating women in sports like it's nobody's business. And in some cases [Lia Thomas comes to mind] men who know they're not really women but want to beat them in sports, are competing against them and often deprive them of college scholarships, for example.

In real life [as opposed to how progressives see life] only women can have babies, and only men produce sperm. Calling yourself a man when you're a woman, or calling yourself a woman when you're a man, is truly sad if you believe it's true. But how many of these people who are scoring victimhood points really believe it?

Finally, if you believe that it's okay taking a young, impressionable child to a public library where a dude, who dresses like a caricature of what he sees as a woman, which often resembles a prostitute, reads to them for "Drag Queen Story Hour," then you might have serious problems of your own.

NC bill favors tougher sentencing for rioters

North Carolina lawmakers have approved significantly stiffer punishments for rioters. This is the second such bill in three years, which first was drafted in response to the 2020 destructive riots following the death of George Floyd, a thug-turned martyr for the left.

House Bill 40 now needs Gov. Roy Cooper, a Democrat, to sign it, but the leftist had vetoed a similar bill which was approved by the Republican-controlled General Assembly in 2021. However, the GOP gained enough seats to override Cooper's veto if only one House Democrat votes for the bill and the Republicans stand united.

[H/T Fox News]

The bill does not interfere with peaceful protests, as guaranteed in the First Amendment, but will drop the hammer down on rioters who damage property and perpetrate violence.

House Speaker Tim Moore voted for the bill both times it had been proposed and pointed out that North Carolina's current laws were useless in preventing rioting and looting in downtown Raleigh in June 2020. Last Thursday Moore urged the governor to sign the "commonsense bill into law without delay." But the chances of most Democrats having common sense is on par with winning the lottery without having purchased a ticket.

However, six House Democrats, including a chief sponsor of the bill, voted in support of the measure last month. In the Senate, lawmakers passed the bill with a 27-16 vote – first-term Sen. Mary Wills Bode, the only Democrat with balls, was the only Democrat to vote in favor.

The Associated Press reported that social justice and civil rights advocates have consistently pushed back on the measures, probably because it stops Black Lives Matter rioters and other rioting leftists, from destroying what they have the right to destroy due to centuries of repression and stuff like that.

CNN: "Mostly peaceful protests"

Sen. Danny Britt (R) of Robeson County, said on the Senate floor  that the bill only targets "violent actors" causing mayhem, and not those peacefully demonstrating. But Democrats know that it will result in targeting most of the "demonstrators" if they're members of BLM or Antifa, because they come with weapons and they come to destroy. 

Other opponents say the language is too broad and laws addressing rioting are already in place, but those laws proved to be as useless as Pete Buttigieg at a train derailment.  

Sen. Natalie Murdock, a Durham County Democrat, said the bill "doubles down on the punitive system that created the scars of mass incarceration that we’re still dealing with today," and blah, blah, blah.

Putting criminals in jail has decreased the number of crimes where that is happening, for some reason. 

Murdock also said it will only "stifle free speech, criminalize protest and erode our First Amendment freedoms," in spite of the fact that it will actually enhance free speech of counter-protesters, which she never considered.

   
Jordan Monaghan, a spokesperson for the governor, said Cooper "has worked to increase public safety and protect constitutional rights, and he will review this legislation." When he vetoed the bill in 2021, he deemed it "unnecessary" and said it is "intended to intimidate and deter people from exercising their constitutional rights to peacefully protest."

The AP said the new bill would increase punishments already in place [that are rarely upheld when the Democrats are in power]  for the crimes of those willfully participating in a riot or inciting one to cover more severe circumstances like brandishing a weapon or causing serious bodily injury. Rioters who cause a death or rioters who incite rioting that contributes to a death would face harsher punishment and assaults on emergency personnel would also result in higher felony sentencing.

The bill would also force rioters who destroy property during protests to have consequences to their behavior, like big boys and girls, and pay for any damages they created. This would obviously help business and property owners to recoup their losses and perhaps make the rioters who seek to destroy, think twice. It might even help lower insurance premiums.

Finally, those accused of rioting would have a 24-hour 'time out' before their bond and pretrial release rules are set. This would allow them time to think about what they had done, the impact their behavior had on others, and a lesson on how to act like a grownup. 

North Carolina would be the tenth state to pass similar laws since the 2020 riots, if the bill is signed into law, according to the International Center for Not-For-Profit Law.

The question is, what are the Democrats so afraid of by passing a law that doesn't violate the rights of anyone involved in a riot, but punishes those who violate the rights of others? Those characters must be their voting base.

College soccer player got benched for not kneeling for BLM--now she's getting big bucks

Kiersten Henig, former VA Tech soccer player refused to kneel along with her teammates, in support of Black Lives Matter and now she's collecting a decent wad of cash because the school benched her and hassled her over her First Amendment rights.

In a report by The Roanoke Times, Ms. Henig agreed to a $100,000 settlement to drop her lawsuit against the school. This was also confirmed by her lawyer, Cameron Norris who explained that neither party had to admit to any wrongdoing, but if you are reading this post, you know who is in the wrong.

Kiersten was a starter on the team in her freshman and sophomore seasons but said she was benched after she chose not to kneel during a pregame ceremony that was planned to honor the racist and violent organization soon after the death of the thug known as George Floyd. [This is not to say that Floyd deserved to die for trying to pass a counterfeit twenty dollar bill or hold a loaded gun on a pregnant woman while his cohorts robbed her home, not exonerate the cop who held him down with his knee on Floyd's neck. But Floyd was not a model citizen and BLM tried to make him out to be godlike.]

Henig blamed the women's head soccer coach, Charles “Chugger” Adair, saying that he had scolded her during halftime at that game. After the no-kneel event, he limited her playing time and she said she was punished for exercising her First Amendment rights. 

Since she was not getting any real playing time and was allegedly targeted by Adair in a “campaign of abuse and retaliation” against her, she quit the team.

The suit was filed in March of 2021. It asked that Henig be put back on the team and also be awarded an undisclosed amount in damages, but Henig had graduated by the time the suit was filed and she doesn't plan to finish out her eligibility. 

The lawsuit stated that Henig supported social justice initiative [everybody gets the same grades, a trophy and a cookie] but added that she does not support BLM as an organization because of its “tactics and core tenets of its mission statement, including defunding the police.”

"Chugger" [big beer drinker?] is still head coach for Virginia Tech's women's soccer and he released a statement after the settlement. He claimed to be vindicated and adding, “I am pleased the case against me has been closed and I am free to move forward clear of any wrongdoing … It’s unfortunate, but this ordeal was about a disappointment and disagreement about playing time. Today, we have clarity that this case lacked any standing, and without evidence, the truth has prevailed.”

If you believe Adair that this case was about playing time, you might also believe that Joe Biden founded Mensa.

Meanwhile, the  settlement is not final until state officials and officials at Virginia Tech have reviewed and approved it.

But hey, it's Virginia Tech--at least nobody got shot. And let's face it--all lives matter.

Ex-VA Tech soccer player benched for not kneeling, allowed to go forward with her lawsuit

The two most difficult thing in sports is to score a goal in soccer, and the second is for Americans to watch a soccer match.

Kiersten Hening, a former Virginia Tech women's soccer player has sued her former coach after he allegedly benched and pressured her for refusing to get on her knees during a pregame oxymoronic social justice demonstration. A judge has ruled that she can go forward with her lawsuit.

Ms. Hening, who was a midfielder/defender for the Hokies from 2018 to 2020, sued coach Charles "Chugger" Aidair in 2021 on First Amendment grounds, which federal Judge Thomas Cullen announced on Dec. 2 can proceed to trial [because he violated her First Amendment rights if this really happened].

Hening alleged that Adair was not a fan of her conservative political views as did many of her teammates, especially on one-way social justice issues during the zenith of the Black Lives Matter movement in 2020.

Hening further explained in the lawsuit that while she "supports social justice and believes that black lives matter," she "does not support BLM the organization," citing its "tactics and core tenets of its mission statement, including defunding the police."

After Hening declined to kneel during a reading of a "unity statement" before a game against UVA on Sept. 12, 2020, she said Adair "verbally attacked her" at halftime, claiming she was "bitching and moaning" while jabbing a finger in her face.

Actually, it was Adair doing all the bitching and moaning, it seems.

Adair continued to berate Hening until he benched her and ultimately made things so intolerable that she felt compelled to quit the team, according to the suit. 

"Hening, who had been a major on-field contributor for two years prior to the 2020 season, also asserts that Adair removed her from the starting lineup for the next two games and drastically reduced her playing time in those games because she had engaged in this protected First Amendment activity. As a result, Hening resigned from the team after the third game of the season," Cullen noted in his recent ruling.

Hening's time on the field dropped off following the incident, the judge noted.

"As a freshman, Hening averaged 76 minutes of playing time; as a sophomore, nearly 88," Cullen wrote. "But during the Clemson game [the next game after the kneeling incident], Hening only played 29 minutes, and, at the UNC game, just 5."

Adair, a card-carrying a-hole, argued that two other players who declined to kneel did not face reduced playing time, moved to dismiss the lawsuit, which was denied.

"Ultimately, Adair may convince a jury that this coaching decision was based solely on Hening’s poor play during the UVA game, but the court, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to Hening, cannot reach that conclusion as a matter of law," ruled Cullen, who said the issues in the case are fundamental.

"While the U.S. Supreme Court and the Fourth Circuit may not have addressed the novel factual circumstances presented here—i.e., a college coach allegedly retaliating against a player for refusing to kneel with her coaches and teammates in support of perceived unity and social justice—the core constitutional principle is both clearly established and fundamental to a free society, and especially to an institution of higher education," Cullen wrote.

Adair is hoping that one day his women's team can compete against an all-transgender woman's team and get woke points and possibly risk a few serious injuries to his woke girls.

Stacey Abrams was co-chair of org that awarded thousands to defund the cops

Georgia gubernatorial Democratic nominee and self-declared Georgia governor Stacey Abrams was a co-chair of a racial justice organization that greased the palms of activists whose goal was to defund and abolish the police.

Abrams was first announced as co-chair of the racist Black Voices for Black Justice Fund (BVBJ) in April 2021 and said in a press release that she was "excited" and "honored" to join the organization. She said it "puts Black leaders in the driver’s seat – with Black activists on the ground who understand how racism plays out in their community defining both the problem and the solutions." 

But the Black activists on the ground better stay out of the road when the Black activists in the driver's seat go driving by. 

The BVBJ gave out $20,000 awards to dozens of Black activists across the country to  "use in whatever way they believe, based on their lived experience, will do the most good advancing racial justice in their communities at this pivotal time," the organization said. 

Sharhonda Bossier, CEO of Education Leaders of Color (EdLoC) was awarded $20,000. Bossier had called for defunding the police during the mostly peaceful violent protests for thug George Floyd.

"It means nothing that these elected officials are expressing support for ‘peaceful protests,’" Bossier tweeted on May 30, 2020. "Their support doesn’t protect you. The police DGAF. The only support that matters is when they stand up to police unions, refuse to agree to contracts that provide more protections for police than the public they’re supposed to serve & defund the police/reallocate those resources. Demand action. Demand change."

"We can live in a country where the police do not kill people - especially children," Bossier tweeted in April 2021. "We spend SO MUCH money on officer training, etc. If we cannot expect that police can respond to incidents without killing people we should... DEFUND & ABOLISH THE POLICE."

Abolishing the police makes as much sense as screwing for abstinence. In both cases all that happens is you get screwed.

In May 2022, the BVBJ announced its fourth round of awardees, which included Kei Williams and William Jackson, among others.

Williams is a founding member of the Black Lives Matter Global Network, which repeatedly posted in favor of defunding and abolishing the police and prisons during the George Floyd unrest of 2020.

Jackson, another 2022 BVBJ awardee, founded the North Carolina-based nonprofit Village of Wisdom, which is aimed at helping Black students "navigate systemic racism," has also described himself as an abolitionist.

"I'm for abolishing police," Jackson tweeted in November 2020.

Yes, abolishing the police will help law abiding Black youth when the not-so law abiding youth shoot up the neighborhoods and crime, especially among the poor who cannot afford private security, surges.

"Stacey Abrams does not and never has supported defunding the police," Abrams campaign spokesman Michael Holloman lied in a statement Monday to Fox News Digital. "Stacey is a longtime supporter of investing in law enforcement, building community trust, and fostering law enforcement accountability."

FOX's Peter Doocy makes WH Press Sec'y look like her dog ate her homework

The new WH press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre [henceforth will be referred to as KJP] has taken the helm from Jen Psaki and already, the ship of fools is taking water. 

Jean-Pierre is coming to the podium unprepared, like a child who tells the teacher that his dog ate his homework when he doesn't actually have a dog.

But on a positive note, KJP is black, an immigrant, and a lesbian, which gives her high marks on her victimhood status, so we conservatives have no right to criticize her. However, she seems to need no help showing how inexperienced she is for the job as White House press secretary after she was asked a question by FOX News' Peter Doocy, an actual reporter who asks tough questions.

Doocy asked about President Biden's tweet saying that to fight inflation, people who make more money than Joe Biden, need to pay their "fair share," which are two issues that have nothing to do with each other.

KJP had no clue what Doocy was talking about and had to go read her notes that also had nothing to do with the question.

There was no excuse for KJP to be unprepared for this question because the White House knows about this tweet and even put out  a statement attacking Jeff Bezos over it after Bezos pointed out how stupid it was. 

The WH has been using Twitter to spread disinformation. Bezos has been calling them out on it. It's been all over the internet. [H/T Louder with Crowder]

Somehow KJP tried to convince anyone that raising taxes will lower the cost of gas and food and went on to list things unrelated to either.

"We encourage those who have done very well, especially those who care about climate change, to support a fairer tax code."

And there we have yet another WTF moment from the bowels of the White House. Climate change?

American families don't care a fiddler's fart about climate change when it comes to feeding their infants, their families and the price of gas. Inflation and the economy are at the very top of the list that Americans care about.

Only elitists who often have a financial interest in climate change and other leftist issues care about things like identity, Critical Race Theory, and taxing the rich even more. [See Black Lives Matter founder Patrisse Cullors, Dr. Anthony Fauci and Rev. Al Sharpton and the legacy media for more on this.]

The Left think by conflating taxes and climate change the public will be too stupid to notice.

But when the new press secretary cannot even address an elementary question because she is obviously unprepared to do the job, you have to believe the country is in decline. At least Psaki was prepared to tell better lies.

Elon calls for investigation of far-Left scumcrumpets trying to "control your access to information"

How do you alienate the world's richest man and push him to the conservative right? 

You try to pressure his potential advertisers to boycott his platform, in this case it's Elon Musk and Twitter, and hope to put him out of the business of allowing for free and open speech on that platform. Now Musk is calling for an investigation into these groups if he refuses to back off on Twitter's content moderation policies that would allow conservatives and everyone else, the ability to say what they will. 

Of course, this doesn't mean that Constitutional laws can be broken. You can't threaten people or get others to commit harm to others. But Musk wants to allow free speech, which may be things you don't want to hear, things you may hate hearing, and that's protected under the First Amendment. 

The Left hates that concept.

“Some of the nation’s biggest brands including Coca-Cola (CCEP), Disney (DIS) and Kraft (KHC) are facing calls to boycott Twitter if the company’s soon-to-be owner, billionaire Elon Musk, rolls back content moderation policies limiting hate speech and election misinformation,” the Compromised News Network reported.

 “In a letter sent to brands Tuesday ahead of the 2022 NewFronts digital advertising conference, more than two dozen civil society groups said marketers should secure commitments from Twitter to retain its most critical policies, including on civic integrity and hateful conduct, and threaten to withdraw funding if Twitter does not comply.”

This is mafia-style and fascistic strong-arming, a technique the Left knows all too well and disguises it in groups with names that have the opposite meanings of who they really are. Antifa is the first to come to mind. They are fascists claiming to be anti fascists. Black Lives Matter is another group that pretends that black lives matter to them except when it comes to the black lives being ended on a daily basis in Democratic-run big cities.

Some of the far-Left groups that signed onto the letter include Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation, GLAAD, Media Matters For America, NARAL Pro-Choice America, and the Women’s March. 

Does the name George Soros come to mind?

The letter stated in-part:

As top advertisers on Twitter, your brand risks association with a platform amplifying hate, extremism, health misinformation, and conspiracy theorists. Under Musk’s management, Twitter risks becoming a cesspool of misinformation, with your brand attached, polluting our information ecosystem in a time where trust in institutions and news media is already at an all-time low. Your ad dollars can either fund Musk’s vanity project or hold him to account. We call on you to demand Musk uphold these basic standards of community trust and safety, and to pull your advertising spending from Twitter if they are not.

Musk tweeted in response: 

“Who funds these organizations that want to control your access to information? Let’s investigate . . . Sunlight is the best disinfectant.”

The Left is going crazy over the Musk acquisition of Twitter last week because now there is at least one tech giant, out the many that are controlled by left-leaning billionaires, who will give an open platform for both sides of the aisle. 

“Attacks are coming thick and fast, primarily from the left, which is no surprise, however I should be clear that the right will probably be a little unhappy too,” Musk said last week in reference to the response he received after his purchase had gone through.  “My goal is to maximize area under the curve of total human happiness, which means the ~80% of people in the middle.”

Musk added in another tweet, “For Twitter to deserve public trust, it must be politically neutral, which effectively means upsetting the far right and the far left equally.”

Now all we need to know where he stands of Roe v. Wade.

Democrat donor Ed Buck gets 30 years in prison for fatally killing 2 men with meth

Buck

Los Angeles -- Ed Buck, 67, is a big buck donor to Democratic, LGBTQ+~%57varieties and animal rights causes. However, he is also a murderer and even after two dead gay men were found in his apartment, the Buck didn't stop there--he continued injecting gay men with super high doses of methamphetamine.

Buck was sentenced Thursday in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles to 30 years "for providing fatal doses of drugs, operating a drug den and enticing men to travel for prostitution." 

"Buck used his money and privilege to exploit the wealth and power imbalances between himself and his victims, who were unhoused, destitute, and/or struggling with addiction," Assistant U.S. Attorney Chelsea Norell said in a court filing. "He spent thousands of dollars on drugs and party and play sessions that destroyed lives and bred insidious addictions."

Prosecutors asked for a life sentence for Buck, but his lawyers requested a decade behind bars, saying he was sexually abused as a child and health problems led to his drug addiction, an excuse as old as the lie "abortion is health care." 

Attorneys Mark Werksman and Elizabeth Little said the judge should go below the 25-year sentence recommended by probation officials that would allow rehabilitation and treatment and "would be much preferable [for Buck, not the victims' families] to relegating him to death in prison." 

Buck, a wealthy gay man who worked as a male model and then made a fortune selling an Arizona company he rescued from bankruptcy, helped lead a 1987 campaign to recall Republican Arizona Gov. Evan Mecham, who was ultimately convicted in an impeachment trial and kicked out of office.

Buck retired at 32 to the city of West Hollywood, known for its large LGBTQ+~%57varieties community, where he lived in a rent-controlled apartment that could have gone to a family who needed it more. In spite of his frugal diggs, the scumcrumpet donated over $500,000 to mostly Democratic causes since 2000.

But his current trouble began when Gemmel Moore, a gay guy, was found dead in his rent controlled apartment on July 27, 2017. Buck had flown Moore from Texas that morning to engage in drug use, and by sunset, Moore was dead.

Moore's mother, LaTisha Nixon, wrote a letter to the court saying she hoped Buck would get the maximum sentence for ruining her life and the suffering it has caused her family. There is nothing worse than your own child being senselessly killed.

"All I can think about is how my son died naked on a mattress with no love around him," Nixon said. "No one to hold his hand or tell him good things."

Community activists and others rallied outside Buck's rent-controlled apartment, calling for his arrest, but that was not yet happening. Family members and Jasmyne Cannick, a political strategist, complained that Buck escaped prosecution because of wealth, political ties and race, much like Hunter Biden has at this point in time.

While Buck was under investigation in Moore's death, he continued to pay gay men so he could inject them. 

He texted a man, Timothy Dean, to express his annoyance over the investigation, much like Patrisse Cullors a BLM co-founder annoyed that the IRS is investigating her for allegedly buying a multi-million dollar home with "zero" income.

About 18 months after Moore's death, deputies were called to Buck's apartment on Jan. 7, 2019, to investigate Dean's death.

But even after Dean's death, Buck was not arrested, much like Hillary Clinton over the Russian hoax.

"Buck's lack of remorse is aptly captured in one image: As he was hiding out in a hotel, evading arrest for Gemmel Moore's death, he was injecting Dane Brown, another young, gay Black man, with back-to-back slams of methamphetamine," Norell said.

Brown was homeless and later moved into Buck's apartment, where Buck injected him with meth most days and often at a rate that Hunter Biden takes selfies when he's high with prostitutes. 

Brown was hospitalized on September 4, 2019, after Buck shot him up three times with back-to-back doses. He had five times the meth in his system that Moore and Dean had when they died, prosecutors said.

So it's obvious that Buck is not merely a Democrat, he's a really stupid one, thinking he was judgment-proof as he continued to perpetrate the same behavior that killed Moore.

Brown returned from the hospital less than a week later and felt himself overdosing after Buck again injected him three times with meth. Like other victims who testified against Buck at trial last summer, Brown was nearly immobilized. He said Buck wouldn't help him.

"Brown sat on the couch, resigned to the same fate as Moore and Dean, when he heard his deceased mother cry out to him, 'Get up, Dane,'" Norell said.

Brown, weak and 'out of gas' managed to get out of the apartment and made it to a nearby gas station. He called for help and was taken to a hospital.

It was Brown's account of his twice being revived that led to Buck's bust.

He will likely spend the rest of his life in prison.

Kenosha, WI flips red after BLM riots and townsfolk woke up to woke garbage

You might remember the Kenosha, Wisconsin riots perpetrated by Antifa and Black Lives Matter in 2020 after a police-involved shooting of a black man Jacob Blake was left paralyzed from the waist down. Blake had just left the home of his baby's momma after he digitally raped her and she called the cops on him. He resisted arrest and reached for a knife in the vehicle he tried to enter. 

In today's troubled times, police are not allowed to protect their own lives and pay the price whenever they use self defense against a black man, especially if the cop happens to be white. So riots broke out, buildings and businesses were burned to the ground, stores were looted and this resulted in similar riots in other cities in the country following the death of George Floyd.

On the second night of the Kenosha riots, Kyle Rittenhouse, a white 17-year-old at the time, was being chased by rioters and he fatally shot two of them in self-defense and injured another who apparently was going to shoot him. He was rightfully acquitted of all charges last year.

Suffice it to say, Kenosha looked like the model for Ukraine's worst war zones at present. The damage to the city was over $50 million.

Evidently, the citizens of Kenosha had enough, and for the first time Wisconsin's Kenosha County executive flipped red for the first time in decades after the city gained notoriety after the Rittenhouse trial.

On April 5th, Samantha Kerkman was elected as the county executive. The race was described as nonpartisan but Kerkman had Republican backing and serves as a GOP state representative. Her opponent, Rebecca Matoska-Mentink, is a Democrat serving as the Clerk of Courts.

It is the first time a woman, and one who knows she's a woman, will serve in the position and the first time since at least 1998 that a Republican has been elected. Hopefully this will be a bellwether for the midterm elections this year.

The current Kenosha County executive is Democrat Jim Kreuser, who has served in the position since 2008. He was preceded by Allan Kehl, who served as a Democratic sheriff in the county before being elected county executive from 1998 to 2008. Kehl resigned in 2008 and was later sentenced to two years in federal prison after pleading guilty to conspiracy to violate campaign finance laws. Hopefully this will be a bellwether for the Hunter Biden legal situation.

Kenosha hasn't voted for a Republican president since Richard Nixon until former President Trump ran in 2016, and again in 2020 in which he won the entire state.

Kerkman thanked her supporters late Tuesday and pointed to her experience serving as a state representative as resonating with voters. She is not a racist nor a member of the KKK, in spite of what the left might say.
