Democratic Gov. admits the error of his woke ways

Woke New Jersey Democratic governor Phil Murphy has "woken up" and smelled the coffee. In this case, the coffee is a metaphor for one's political future.

The Democrats through their ongoing virtue signaling that has no place in normal conversation, have alienated parents of young children and others to the point that they have created a new interest group, and this group is not buying the bull the left is offering.

Murphy now admits that some of the inappropriate gender identity propaganda materials being used on young children in New Jersey may not have been "age appropriate." Gee, ya think?

It's bad enough when leftists believe there are more than two genders, but to foist that nonsense on a gullible child is a form of indoctrination that really should be considered unlawful. And most parents agree and want to have the full say in how their child is taught about gender identification issues and sexuality.

Even companies such as Netflix are suffering because people are tired of the LGBTQ!+1carrythe2~XYZ issues and just want to enjoy a video.

Murphy's admission comes from the enormous pressure and scrutiny he's getting after he defended the woke curriculum and passed it in 2020. As people became more aware and criticism grew, Murphy flipped and claimed that some of the lesson plans people were seeing in schools were isolated occurrences, adding that many school districts hadn’t adopted them and they didn’t reflect the state’s standards.

So according to this guy's logic, it was okay to have some kids indoctrinated [as in groomed] as long as it wasn't all kids.

The far-left governor spoke about how local school districts should review the material for age-appropriate content before talking about how politicians were misrepresenting the state’s sample lesson plans for their own gain. 

Evidently, if a local school district is run by woke folk, they could accept or reject material and thus it's okay to have some kids indoctrinated, as mentioned above.

Murphy still believes that gender identity curriculum was okay, even for first graders, but said that parents should have some say in the matter as to what schools teach their children. 

So parents, beware. 

Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be gender fluid outlaws.

A suspect arrested in shooting attack in NJ: Gov. Murphy blames violent guns

Kevin Dawkins

New Jersey law enforcement arrested and charged one man with a violent gun in the deadly shooting at a house party over the weekend attended by around 700 people. The violent guns resulted in two deaths and dozens injured. Other arrests may be pending and the violent guns confiscated and made to pay for their crime.

Prosecutor Jennifer Webb-McRae, of Cumberland County, said at a press conference Monday that Kevin K. Dawkins, 36, was arrested and charged with several counts related to weapons use and possession. The prosecutor’s office will move for detention pending trial.

Dawkins faces charges of unlawful possession of violent gun, unlawful possession of a large capacity magazine, certain person not to have a weapon and possession of a weapon for unlawful purpose.

Evidently, if Dawkins is a "certain person not to have a weapon" he probably has a criminal record like the illegal gun that shot people.

McRae said that the office is "still doing interviews" as state police continue to search for further suspects. The interviews may lead to further charges, but the prosecutor was not willing to provide additional information to Brain Flushings or legitimate news outlets as the investigation is ongoing.

"One individual has been arrested, and we anticipate more arrests," New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal said at the same press conference.

Grewal also confirmed that police recovered "multiple" violent guns and shell casings, which authorities are using to determine the origin of the weapons and any other crimes with which they may be related.

An undetermined number of miscreants approached a house party on Saturday, firing into the crowd and killing two people: Asia Hester, 25, and Kevin Elliot, 30.

Grewal called the attack "targeted."

Gov. Phil Murphy said the attack was a "microcosm in gun violence" seen nationwide. He said that he wished he could actually arrest the damn guns, but that wouldn't do any good. The guns would still be violent and there would always be someone to hold them and "point" them while they did their evil deeds.

He spoke strongly in support of further gun control, particularly in the wake of the shooting, because that's what political a-holes do when a crisis presents itself for their benefit.

"If it’s one thing we can’t normalize, it’s senseless gun violence," Murphy said, hoping to educate idiots who don't know that point. "We cannot allow there to be a next time."

Murphy would also like to abolish the police insidiously by defunding them and allowing attrition to be the culprit.

Murphy and McRae asked for anyone with information – particularly pictures or video from the party – to come forward and share what they have with police who have yet to be defunded.

No law enforcement social workers were injured in this terrible incident.

She also faced blowback on Twitter, where racial justice advocates suggested that Lightfoot was likely using the policy to distract from her inability to handle questions of violence. “Lori Lightfoot presided over an enormous increase in homicides, almost all of them in African American or Latino communities, and she’s hoping these PR stunts get liberal America to give her a pass for failing to save people’s lives,” journalist Zaid Jilani pointed out.

Indeed, on the same day that the mayor’s office announced the policy favoring “black and brown” reporters, Lightfoot aides announced that “a compromise plan to make past police disciplinary records available to the public,” essentially turning down a request from Chicago’s racial justice activists to expand police transparency.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot Determines Who Interviews Her Based On Race, Local Reporters Claim

Local media reporters in Chicago are alleging that Democrat Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is selecting who gets to do one-on-one interviews with her based on the race of the interviewer.

NBC 5 political reporter Mary Ann Ahern made the initial allegation on Twitter, writing: “As ⁦ @chicagosmayor ⁩ reaches her two year midway point as mayor, her spokeswoman says Lightfoot is granting 1 on 1 interviews – only to Black or Brown journalists.”

Chicago PBS news anchor Paris Schultz responded: “I was told the same thing.”

Chicago PBS political reporter said that she could “confirm” what Ahern was alleging.

Lightfoot’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Daily Wire or Fox News.

Australian political commentator Rita Panahi responded to the allegations by writing on Twitter: “More ‘anti-racist’ racism. Almost amusing how regressive race-obsession is celebrated among the Left.”

“Racism in the name of wokeism is still racism,” another commentator said. Another added, “So wouldn’t that make her a racist?”

Progressive writer Zaid Jilani wrote: “Is she going to do some kinda DNA test to assure she upholds this rule?”

“It is unclear when such a practice was enacted and if it only applies to local reporters, particularly after her MSNBC appearance with Stephanie Ruhle on Monday,” Fox News reported. “During her MSNBC interview, Lightfoot told Ruhle she would ‘encourage’ Chicago residents to continue wearing masks despite the new CDC guidance allowing those with the coronavirus vaccine to go without them.”

“I know for me personally, I’m going to continue to wear a mask in public and I’m going to encourage others to do so,” Lightfoot told Ruhle. “We’ve got to make sure that people are continuing to follow the public health guidance that has gotten us this far, and masks, I think, are a big and important part of that.”

Lightfoot said on Tuesday afternoon that her decision to continue to encourage people to wear masks was not based on distrust of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

“But I think their guidance last week regarding masks has people confused…We need clarification,” Lightfoot said. “We still have a long way to go to hit the critical mass (of vaccinations) or herd immunity. I don’t want people to have false confidence.”

“To say, ‘If you’re vaccinated, you don’t have to wear a mask,’ that’s great. But what about all of the other people who are out there that aren’t vaccinated?” Lightfoot added. “There’s no way to know that. So I think for the time being, most people are gonna continue to wear masks outside of their homes.”
