It's funny how MAGA cultists are outraged that Brandon verbally attacked reporter Peter Douchebag and called him an SOB, but didn't have the same vitriol when Trump mocked a reporter with disabilities or called Kaep an SOB.

Cant wait for Biden to challenge Douchy to a pushup contest.
And then wash him while smiling.

Or how entitled they are that it isn't even about them not being able to get into elite schools. In almost all of these cases they get into another Ivy (public or private) It's the fact that they didn't get into their first choice. They want everything....

He's coming to Washington (the state, not the city, lest you be confused like Ol' Rudy) to be a keynote speaker to the state Republican party for...reasons? Washington is blue as hell. It hasn't gone red since 1984 (and that was only for Reagan). It's a complete waste of time, but anything for the grift.

Love the absurdity of this statement.
They are really going to condense the entirety of the Civil Rights movement into their favorite MLK quote
Teach your kids about Malcom X, not because of his early calls to use force in the face of oppression, but to demonstrate that the movement was complex in its ideologies and approaches. They're about to erase this man and the motivations behind the "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" from the narrative of the racial struggle in the US.
Within his Letter from a Birmingham Jail, Dr. King wrote, “one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that 'an unjust law is no law at all.”
How bitterly coincidental, then, that the professor whose talk was canceled by these “anti-woke” culture warriors, J. Michael Butler, teaches in St. Augustine, Florida.
rexanglorum
recently invoked political scientist Frank Wilhoit's pithy description of conservatism in reference to the Rittenhouse verdict:"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."
That’s really the only way to make sense of this, as it would not otherwise jibe with their “anti-cancel culture” stance. They’re not truly opposed to censorship - even government-imposed censorship - only to accountability for themselves and their allies.
It’s dog-whistle legislation for dog-whistle politics.
To evade legal scrutiny, the most racist laws of our times were crafted with ostensibly “race-neutral” language - neutral in theory, but grotesquely biased in their design and application.
Like anti-gang laws targeting "three or more persons wearing the same or similarly clothing," or the NYPD's attempts to wield a "masquerade law" to police gender boundaries pre-Stonewall, those who developed bills around conservative CRT hysteria have no intention of allowing the resulting laws to be turned against them. The context in which they were drafted, and the presumed affiliations of those entrusted with their interpretation, are tacitly encoded within the laws themselves.
The cancellation of this lecture offers a clear example of this point, despite DeSantis spokesghoul Christina Pushaw's statement: "Critical Race Theory and factual history are two different things. The attempts to gaslight Americans by conflating the two are as ineffective as they are tiresome."
If that’s true, then why has it already created a chilling effect for the presentation of factual history - and why hasn’t the administration opposed this “misinterpretation?”
The bill states that no one should be made to "feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress on account of his or her race, color, sex, or national origin,” and yet Florida Republicans also passed or seek the passage of multiple anti-LGBTQ bills, such as a youth sports bill that would clearly cause trans students to “feel discomfort” and “experience psychological distress” on account of their sex.
In theory, a member of the Muscogee Nation should be able to invoke this law to successfully challenge typical Eurocentric presentations of America's "discovery" or "settlement,” but any hopes of a 14th Amendment challenge à la Yick Wo were rendered moot by the current majority’s nakedly partisan hackery.
Despite Republicans’ longstanding desire to declare “mission accomplished” to systemic inequality, there can be no reconciliation without accountability and a commitment to shared truth.
Anti-CRT histrionics are to racism what “I’m sorry that you’re so emotional right now” is to apologies.
It’s not even pulling the knife out six inches - it’s obscuring the handle with a napkin and making it a crime to remove or even acknowledge.
$900+? Low quality renderings instead of actual product photos?
This is the BBB playbook. Rudy isn’t just grifting, he’s grifting other people’s grifts.

Never forget, Peter Doocey is the son of Steve Doocey, the goofy "aw shucks" guy on Fox & Friends from forever ago who could say whatever he wanted and get away with it because he appealed to your grandma and grandpa. That family managed to get White House press access. That's all.

Nail on the coffin for this strategy is solid control of the courts.
