[ (Critical Race Theory) isn’t really education at all, not in the sense in which the term has been understood in the post-Enlightenment era. It is closer to pre-Enlightenment religious instruction: the imparting of doctrinal truth with the practical aim of saving souls and reordering the world. Hence its migration from college campuses to K-12 schools, where its practitioners expect to find supple and more-suggestible minds. They have taken to heart the old Jesuit maxim about the first seven years of life. – Gerard Baker in the 22jun21 WSJ (here)]

Portlandia: A liberal shithole
‘LPGA Pulls Tournament From Portland Venue Over Concerns About Player Safety, Homeless Encampment’
“The encampment is located close to the entrance to the private golf club, surrounding a nearby parking lot where attendees, players, and media would park their vehicles for the tournament.
The Oregonian states, “Both sides of 33rd (a nearby road) are dotted with run-down RVs, trailers, tents, makeshift housing structures, and mounds of rubble and garbage. As Portland’s homeless crisis has spiraled further out of control during the coronavirus pandemic, the stretch of road has quietly grown into one of the city’s largest encampments, transforming a tree-lined stretch with large bike lanes into an eyesore, fire hazard and — Portland Classic organizers say — a safety hazard.”……
“The Portland Classic is just the latest sporting event to be impacted by Portland’s safety issues. The NCAA denied the city’s bid to host the Women’s Final Four in October 2020, citing concerns over the city’s declining image and the state of downtown Portland.
Portland is also attempting to bring a Major League Baseball franchise to the city but is running into roadblocks as violence in the city has become a major issue.
According to The Oregonian, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred was set to travel to Portland after last year’s World Series to discuss possible expansion, but the meeting was canceled after the Oregon Historical Society was vandalized by rioters.”
https://www.dailywire.com/news/lpga-pulls-tournament-from-portland-venue-over-concerns-about-player-safety-homeless-encampment?
No wonder Trump had to send Federal Officers to Portland to protect federal property and the federal courthouse. Portland was unable to protect anything because of the peaceful protestors that engaged in violence for over 100 straight days and nights.
Yup,, just waiting for the “nuke” question. Good one. Genius.

Come to think of it, ‘ One if by Land, Two if by Sea’ is also racist because we have been told that math in and of itself is racist. Good thing those insurrectionists back then did not attend our modern public schools where getting the correct answer to simple math is of no importance. Otherwise, the outcome could have been different. Two if by land….what difference does it make anyhow? Math is not something people use in the real world, right?

“Trump is destroying trust in our government!”, cried the Broad St Town Cryer.
No, distrust of government started way back in the 1700’s and armed citizens kicking the Redcoats back to England settled the matter. Those loyal to King George were appalled.
The true classic liberals (and non-green Libertarians) as well as our Founding Fathers all had a healthy dose of distrust of government….for an excellent reason: human history. One could argue successfully that distrust of our government “institutions” created a new nation and the best country in the annals of man.

So Bill Barr is speaking out on Trumps contentions of voter fraud. From an interview in the Atlantic:
“My attitude was: It was put-up or shut-up time,” Barr told me. “If there was evidence of fraud, I had no motive to suppress it. But my suspicion all the way along was that there was nothing there. It was all bullshit.”…….
also…
“Barr also looked into allegations that voting machines across the country were rigged to switch Trump votes to Biden votes. He received two briefings from cybersecurity experts at the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI. “We realized from the beginning it was just bullshit,” Barr told me, noting that even if the machines somehow changed the count, it would show up when they were recounted by hand. “It’s a counting machine, and they save everything that was counted. So you just reconcile the two. There had been no discrepancy reported anywhere, and I’m still not aware of any discrepancy.”

If I am not mistaken, the wacko head shrinker was from Princeton. At least the “expert” than was on CNN or MSPMS a hundred times. Embarrassingly for her, she had let her license lapse and legally could not diagnose anyone, not to mention someone from afar that she has never met. Think she lost her gig after she became no further use to the Leftinistas. Lol.
Now, it would not surprise me in the least if there was one from Harvard as well.
Ever wonder why “liars” and narcissists hit such a raw nerve with the former News Director? A good shrink would say something about projection. We dislike most in others what we subconsciously hate about ourselves. Liar! He is a narcissist! Unfit!
But, I ain’t no shrink. Neither do I live for or seek the applause of others. Ain’t that co-dependent. Don’t need it like some do.

UN agency attacks homeschooling
“Against decades of evidence to the contrary, the UNICEF statement promotes the notion that government schooling is the only way for children to be educated, socialized, and prepared for life in a pluralistic society. However, this statist ideology is in conflict with U.N. human rights treaties and reports acknowledging that home education is a human right and must be respected in a country’s educational system.
After the fall of the Axis powers in World War II, representatives of the free world gathered as the newly formed United Nations to enshrine human rights that had been threatened by totalitarian regimes and ideology. Education was one of these rights. Responding specifically to the Nazi regime’s use of Germany’s education system to indoctrinate children into its inhumane ideology, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights affirms in article 26.3 that parents have a “prior right” to decide what kind of education their children shall receive.
Similarly, the U.N.’s International Covenant on Economic, Cultural and Social Rights, which Brazil has signed, states in articles 13 and 14 that private learning institutions must be respected and that parents have a human right to ensure that their children’s education conforms to the family’s religious and philosophical convictions.
Other U.N. reports support the inclusion of homeschooling as a right in education. In 2006, Werner Munoz, then the U.N.’s special rapporteur on the right to education, stated that homeschooling should be allowed as part of the educational rights of children and parents. In 2020, UNESCO’s World Education Monitoring Report recognized the growing prevalence of homeschooling and noted that “countries are increasingly making the option available under relatively simple conditions.”

Fact Check: Biden’s Chopper Was ‘Forced Down’ by Snowflakes
Associated Press
“In a Baltimore speech last week, Biden said: “If you want to know where Al Qaeda lives, you want to know where (Usama) bin Laden is, come back to Afghanistan with me. Come back to the area where my helicopter was forced down with a three-star general and three senators at 10,500 feet in the middle of those mountains. I can tell you where they are.”
Two days later, in Cincinnati, he said Al Qaeda has re-established a safe haven and it’s not in Baghdad. “It’s in the mountains between Afghanistan and Pakistan,” he said, “where my helicopter was recently forced down.”
At a Sept. 9, fundraiser, Biden addressed his national security credentials by talking about “the superhighway of terror between Pakistan and Afghanistan where my helicopter was forced down. John McCain wants to know where bin Laden and the gates of Hell are? I can tell him where. That’s where Al Qaida is. That’s where bin Laden is.”
THE FACTS: In February, Biden and fellow senators John Kerry and Chuck Hagel were flying in a helicopter over Afghanistan in a fact-finding trip when a snowstorm closed in.
“It went pretty blind, pretty fast and we were around some pretty dangerous ridges,” Kerry told The Associated Press afterward. “So the pilot exercised his judgment that we were better off putting down there, and we all agreed.”
He said the group waited for about three hours until a convoy with U.S. troops took them to Bagram Air Base.
“We sat up there and traded stories,” Kerry joked. “We were going to send Biden out to fight the Taliban with snowballs, but we didn’t have to do it.”
He added: “Other than getting a little cold, it was fine.”
The area was reported as not being under Taliban control. But Wade noted “it’s the wild west out there” and the senators were transported under guard and with air cover from an F-16.
Though Biden never said his helicopter was shot at in Afghanistan, last year he asserted that he was “shot at” in Iraq. He amended that later, saying the quarters he was staying in while visiting Baghdad’s protected Green Zone shook from a nearby blast, and “I was near where a shot landed.”
The McCain campaign jumped on the Biden stories Wednesday, putting out a statement from a retired Black Hawk pilot saying there is no mistaking being shot at or forced down by the enemy.

Emery.. You can keep your dotard Biden. We will take Trump any day.
He DID look out for our best interests. You geezer Biden and cohorts are trying to sell us down the river as fast as they can. Hence “Phuck America first”.
Trump made us energy independent. Now we are back to Russian and Arab camel jockey oil.
Biden give Putin a handjob, and allows his pipeline to continue, while shutting ours down. So much for infrastructure.
How you liking the massive inflation there Emery? We didn’t have it with Trump.
Trump put the breaks on illegal immigration..
Your pal Biden and Cumilla said COME ON IN!!
Now illegally giving them OUR tax dollars.
You must hate America as much as they do.
You can put a lid on it for the night.
Enjoy your right to be butt stupid.
