If increasingly poisonous international ESG standards and agenda-driven board members lording over your company dictate that your brand must appeal or flat-out cater to transgender minorities, maybe you do what you must. But when "woke" policy strives to take center stage or become a child attractant in the United States, mothers, customers, talk show hosts and maybe the family dog will rise up and crush you like a United Nations-approved edible insect. Maybe you didn't know it before, but you sure as hell know it now. Budweiser, Target, now Kohl's -- how many more are waiting in the wings as potentially deleterious effects of transgender playgrounds upon children's maturity come to public attention? Dress any way you like, but leave the kids alone -- and if you sell beer, just sell the damned beer without visual enhancements guaranteed to make your customers run for their lives.
That said, however, I'm hardly the poster boy for "normal" society myself, so let's not seat me on Queen Victoria's Internet throne.
The FBI and Crime: Well, in this case we wonder just why FBI chief Wray refuses to give Congress a whistle blower-confirmed document which might prove criminality regarding President Biden from his VP days. If the official explanation indicates that the FBI is conducting its own investigation of the document, we suggest that's nonsense and are puzzled over why a Congress which oversees the FBI must beg and still receive nothing. Is a contempt of Congress charge in store for director Wray?
Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes is sentenced to 18 years in prison. "Seditious conspiracy?" Wow, I know there's a lot of treason and insurrection going on, but in my mind more likely attributed to. . .well, you know who. Sure, I'll creep out on a limb here. First of all, the judge was almost guaranteed to be a Democrat -- I mean, this was Washington. D.C. after all. Beyond that, I think the nation's Democrat elite, the "woke" moron bunch and other accommodating entities are scared to death of anybody on the right, and when groups such as Oath Keepers and Proud Boys (which includes racial minorities -- imagine that) make their presence known, fear hits the heights. I kinda suspect that prison cells will eventually serve a better purpose, once enough Americans take their attention off national TV news lies and brain-altering entertainment.
Prepare for the big cry: We're going to be blasted with increased calls for compassion toward illegal aliens as they and their criminal element seep across the U.S. Me? I'm perfectly capable of going to the border and dropping babies back on the other side. I'm not about to cave to the devious left as they expect good Americans to baby-sit their mistakes-by-intent. New voters are the ultimate prize?
The Misadventures of Banko Brown: Sorry, he's dead, allegedly shot to blazes by a San Francisco Walgreens security guard in April after reportedly caught shoplifting and threatening to stab the guard with a knife. Turns out there was no knife, but if the threat was made as the guard scuffled with the 24-year-old, the killing may have been justified. Then again, that was San Francisco, where criminals are king and being defensive is a crime. Whatever the case here, of course TV networks are showing obligatory sad interviews with parents of the alleged perp, and while some viewers swoon with hearts pouring out sympathy my question is -- if this guy was shoplifting, what does this say about the parents who raised him? Could have done a better job, perhaps? Hmm. Now, let's move on to those millions of dollars in the inevitable lawsuit. . .
Today's Fantasy: For six months, shoplifting in the country should be an instant-execution offense. No age requirement, equal opportunity kill. After a few thug bodies pile up, the message should be clear. Doing virtually nothing, as we do now, causes businesses to close up and crime to multiply. A few light-fingered bodies made horizontal, not by senseless violence, but by clear intent with good purpose, might be the only solution. Okay, I'll meet the left halfway: Social workers with guns can do the job.
As we move further from the original Covid epidemic, let's hope we learned the difference between real science and contrived science run by panic and politicians.
UFOs: Quite the day at NASA. As more bureaucracy is stacked on the pile, complete with a number of new human intellect arrivals whose collective resumes almost remind one of an anticipated movie script, I shall curb my optimism temporarily. If any of these folks can give me a logical, normal explanation for the Hickson-Parker (Pascagoula) UFO (?) abduction case from 1973, I'll go away quietly. Maybe. . .
OR I'll become a doctor of divinity. Unfortunately, the ad shown here is decades old.
