    Odd how twitter people find these contradictions, but the dolts themselves never seem to bother to find what they previously wrote.

    They have gone to full Nazi, Russian, Chinese propaganda. Trump is 100% correct calling them fake news.

    The Democrat party has always hated it when blacks didn't know their place.

    Their place was to be physical slaves to the Democrats until 1865.

    Their place was to be economic slaves to the Democrats until 1965.

    Since then, their place has been to be their vote slaves - mindlessly pushing the button to elect their Democrat masters into office. When one runs off the Democrat plantation like Larry Elder has, they go completely insane.

    No one gets called the N-word in America more than Justice C. Thomas - and by Democrats with college degrees.

    And no one displays more class when he then crushes their hopes and dreams with his rulings, than that great man.

    Can you imagine.... a black voice representing California and not singing the Democratic party line. Right now, MSM gives Newsom coverage that is almost on the level of the POTUS. watch what happens if Elder wins. All of sudden, CA will be treated like Wyoming on the national landscape. MSM will attempt to de-emphasize and "backpage" everything Elder does, because the very last thing Dem's want is a black man with the megaphone of CA talking conservative principles.

    I'm not a huge West fan, but can you imagine the governors of the two largest states in the union being led by Black Republicans. Holy crap would that undercut the ridiculous "systemic racism" ********.

    Study: Climate Change causing high 'psychological distress' among teens and young adults

    This is about as cynical and ruthless as it gets. The media/Liberals have bludgeoned the airwaves about climate change and now are reporting exactly what was intended: young people are afraid.

    This is the evidence of brainwashing on a massive scale. They have now achieved the holy grail; compliance with and demand for wealth redistribution, EVEN IF THE LIBERAL POLITICIANS say it will not be until 2050 when results will be known.

    It's not embarrassing to them. They are on a Machiavellian mission of moral imperative. They are justified in all their actions. Lying, distortion, bias etc. are all necessary to kneed the beneficiaries of the Liberal Patronage Industrial Complex not only into compliance, but to demand action by the totalitarians in the name of saving us all from evil.

    Wonder why there is no psychological distress generated by fear of the growing national debt? I have psychological distress about the raising of my taxes and inflation.

    It's too esoteric. The Left blame it on the rich and act like they're going to collect it from the rich, so the idiots buy into it because they are emotionally compromised. It doesn't mean anything to them. But a freeze or a hurricane is personal if it's in their neighborhood.

    Look at the reporting of hurricanes this year. They are screeching that it's evidence of sure doom IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING.

    I'm with you on this, nashhorn. Inflation is the most cruel tax of all. For retirees (like me) and others on a fixed income, it hurts every time I go to the grocery store or the gas station. Yes, I'm likely to get a COLA increase on my Social Security next year - but that doesn't help right now. And the COLA is going to be accompanied by an increase in Medicare premiums - probably enough to chew up most of the COLA. And I don't see any indication that the Biden administration cares.

    COLA might cover a case of beer, ummmm maybe two - depends on how much Medicare goes up cause it usually takes 90% or more.

    The economic impact of hurricanes is fairly small once you get beyond the roof and water damage. 3 days later people’s lives are mostly back to normal. Those big insurance numbers given after each hurricane are no reflection on the minimal impact on gdp caused by the hurricane.

    Actually overall recovering from a hurricane brings an economic benefit to the region.
    Overall but there are always people left hurt

    Well stat, rationalize it however you want
    But the reality common sense of an area recovering from a hurricane is money is spent and direct jobs as well as ancillary biz/lobs are by necessity created.
    Can you think of another way to rebuild?
    Like anything else not everyone will benefit.

    Look up James Lindsay on Twitter or New Discourses. He intellectually addresses this stuff head on every day.

    I've added them to my follow list. I'll bet it's interesting. There is so much presumed but unsupported BS just baked into interviews like this that never gets challenged (for obvious reasons).

    Explain to me how blaming white people for your problems is any different that Hitler blaming Jews for the problems of Nazis.

    I've often thought the democrats strategy was stealing a page from Hitlers playbook. Antifa also resembles the brown shirts. The facist antifacist. Ironic.

    Dan Bongino will have to write a check for $31,835 to the DailyBeast.

    Backstory, the DailyBeast published and article in which they said he was "dropped" from NRATV then went on to say that this could have been the result of corporate downsizing and any other number of reasons.

    Bongino didn't like the word "dropped" and sued in Florida for defamation, ostensibly trying to punish the left wing blog. When it became clear that the judge took the entire article in context and not just the single word "dropped" and Bongino's singular interpretation of the word into account he willingly withdrew the case. Unfortunately for him, the judge said that Anti-SLAPP laws applied. The are laws against frivolous lawsuits against media entities whose goals are to silence the media. As part of the violation of the Anit-SLAPP case he has to pay Daily Beast for legal fees.

    With his new gig taking over Limbaughs show I'm certain this won't break him but it can't be easy signing that check given his disdain for opposing media.

    If that's the basis of his defamation suit, that's pretty weak. Not surprised he got SLAPPed.
