The Week in Woke

If Lindsay Clancy was hot, all the AWFULs would have voted "guilty" and suggested the death penalty.
The Democrat Party is gobsmacked to learn that DEI hiring practices in politics produce the same gigantic failures as in all other fields.
According to former Democrat Party National Fundraising Committee member Lindy Li, the Party conducted a top-secret poll to gauge the strength of the various pols who could replace Biden. Kamala Harris came in dead last.
But they grimly made her their candidate because of the DEI imperative of placating black female Democrats.
"The polling numbers went directly against the narrative that the party wanted to espouse," Li said.Party members floated Pete Buttigieg, Gavin Newsom, and Gretchen Whitmer internally as replacements. According to Li, every one of them tested better than Kamala. Asked why the party buried its own numbers anyway, Li said, "They knew that skipping over Kamala Harris would be a slap in the face to the bedrock of the party, which is black women in particular, and they just wouldn't have it."
The details get more embarrassing from there. "Kamala Harris came in dead last," Li said. "It wasn't even close. Pete Buttigieg, who hilariously received 0% support from the black vote, did better than she did. And yet the party is so straitjacketed by DEI that they had no choice but to appoint her."
A man was stabbed in Seattle's Pioneer Square on Sunday. He's in critical condition.
The attacker could have been identified... but dreary wallflower femcel communist moron Katie Wilson turned off all of the city's CCTV cameras because they could be used to catch illegal aliens committing crimes and then Trump might deport these legions of doctors, engineers, and rocket scientists.
No, seriously, that's the real reason.
She also says the cameras are a "danger" to "people of color."
An investigation is underway after a stabbing victim boarded the Link light rail Sunday afternoon in Seattle's Pioneer Square neighborhood....
Firefighters then arrived and treated the approximately 30-year-old man, before paramedics transported him to Harborview Medical Center -- where he remains in critical condition as of Sunday night.
...
As of the SPD's last update, the suspect remains at large with no description given. Police also did not say that there was a threat to the public.
The reported stabbing took place a few blocks from the nearest active city CCTV camera at 3rd Avenue and Yesler Way, while other city CCTV cameras that are installed throughout Pioneer Square, remain turned off since the end of the FIFA World Cup in early-July, as an ongoing audit determines the security of their data from federal authorities and their efficacy.
Asked directly if the suspect could have been identified if the cameras were on, Wilson's black female police chief (of course) takes so long to answer (because the answer is "Yes, obviously") that Katie Wilson steps in to answer for her. She admits that of course cameras are "helpful," but wants to keep them shut off.
Mahmoud Khalil, the Algerian citizen who has spent the better part of his four years in the United States participating in unlawful demonstrations at Columbia University, is suing everyone he can.Facing imminent deportation for his role in Columbia University Apartheid Divest -- the group that claims to be working toward the downfall of Western civilization -- Khalil is showing some real nerve.
On Monday, he filed a lawsuit against Columbia and the dean of his master's degree program, claiming they failed to protect him and his fellow window-smashers from discrimination and harassment.
Cry harder, Fruit of IslamIt's not the first time Khalil has sought protection under the laws of the constitutional system he advocates overthrowing.
In March 2025, Khalil sued Columbia and several federal lawmakers to stop the university from turning over students' disciplinary records to Congress.
Had Congress seen that Columbia failed to expel anti-Israel fanatics who destroyed school property, trespassed, and falsely imprisoned custodial staff, the government might have concluded that universities weren't taking discrimination against Israelis and Jews seriously.
Khalil and his comrades may dream of a world without a First Amendment, but they were happy to invoke it to protect themselves.
In July 2026, he sued multiple government officials, think tanks and other nonprofits, arguing they conspired to have him deported.
Apparently he believes that private organizations making political arguments are not protected by the First Amendment, while destroying property and disobeying police are sacred civil rights.
To summarize: Anyone looking to hold Khalil and his fellow professional agitators accountable for documented lawbreaking is violating civil rights law -- and anyone trying to protect the students those agitators wanted to intimidate is violating the First Amendment.
Any questions?
...
Living in a free country means putting up with that nonsense -- to an extent.
It does not mean we have to allow our enemies to undermine us on our home turf.
Khalil is not a citizen and would make a very bad one if he became one; he should be sent home before that happens.
He is free to criticize the Great Satan of America and the Little Satan of Israel from Algeria or Syria.
Maybe a sign of progress? University of Alabama at Birmingham offers a degree in "LGBT Health and Wellbeing" -- which consists of just watching all the "Stefon" sketches on SNL -- but at the moment there are zero point zero students enrolled in it.
The University of Alabama at Birmingham's LGBTQ Health and Wellbeing certificate recorded zero students in fall 2024 and fall 2025, the school's self-reported enrollment information reveals.The data show that the certificate reported one student in fall 2023, when coursework for the program began, before dropping to zero in fall 2024 and remaining at zero in fall 2025.
The report states that students are counted under their primary degree program, so students pursuing the certificate while in another program may be excluded. The certificate is housed under the School of Public Health.
Despite its zero reported enrollment, the university continues to advertise the certificate on its website. Only one other School of Public Health graduate certificate, Disability Health Studies, recorded zero students in fall 2025.
Some good news: A non-profit is being set-up to defend conservatives from the left's unending lawfare:
DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublicanThis is a big announcement. Leftists have had their own free legal representation for decades. Conservatives haven't.
This is because traditionally, conservatives have thought of politics as winning the debate. It's comfortable. It's institutional. They don't have to be "mean" to anyone.
Until, enter Oversight Project ( @ItsYourGov). Think of them as an actiontank instead of thinktank. The first such organization for conservatives to meet leftists on their own terms.
Creating the first-ever home for conservatives affected by lawfare is just the start.

MAHA: Get Your Kids Off Their Screens and Make Them Live Actual Life, Says RFKJr.
—Disinformation Expert Ace
I mean, it's obvious, but it's good that someone in authority is saying it.
The Department of Health and Human Services has a challenge for American parents and children: "Live real life."
I think that's a challenge for all of us.
For example, garrett spends most of his days online trolling for gay cyberex. That's no way to live. He should be out there in the real world, dressed like a highway pirate from The Road Warrior, giving handjobs under the bridge.
The way it used to be.
...HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. exclaimed, "Today, adolescents -- a 16-year-old spends an average of 8.5 hours a day on screens. Even toddlers spend two, three hours on screens every day. Only one in four high school students has at least 60 minutes of physical activity each day." No wonder kids are unhealthier, lonelier, and more dysfunctional than ever.
Dr. Mehmet Oz, the Medicare and Medicaid administrator, pointed out, "This is the first generation of young people in America who are not growing up living just with their screens. They're living through their screens."
...
Kennedy reflected on his own experience in childhood. "You know, when I was growing up, I spent a lot of time in the woods, and walking in creeks, and outside playing with my brothers and sisters playing sports in the yard, getting scrapes, climbing trees, catching animals, and that connected me to something larger than myself."
Such an experience, Kennedy noted, "was shared by 10,000 generations of human beings that lived before there were laptops, before there were smartphones, and we have responsibility as parents, and as a government health agency. to do everything we can to get our children out into those experiences again, and prepare them for life." This is how we transform the future.
This is the way.
On the other hand: the left-wing fascists are now actively urging their weak, fat followers to be even weaker and fatter than they are now. "Fascists," by which they mean "non-communist mutant normies," may be fit, but it a revolutionary virtue to be weak and unhealthy.
Here, here! I support this agenda with all of my soul.

Jimmy Kimmel, Steven Colbert Whine About How Hard Their Jobs of Not Being Funny Are
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Stephen Colbert swung by ABC and Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday to celebrate his Emmy win and to reflect back on his days as host of The Late Show. Colbert claimed to be much happier now that he is no longer hosting the show because he doesn't have to "drink a cup of poison" every day by immersing himself in the news, but neither he nor Kimmel appeared to realize that nobody was forcing them to do that in the first place.Kimmel began by simply wondering, "Do you think about it ever?" and Colbert answered by quipping, "Nope. I have an opportunity to not think about the news every day? And I took it."
Rewinding to Monday's Emmy Awards, Kimmel observed, "Yeah, you know what, when I saw you last night, or what was--yeah, last night, I felt like you--I don't know, you seemed like a different person. You seemed happier. You seemed healthier."
Colbert retorted, "Like I don't drink a cup of poison every day?"
After Kimmel affirmed, "Yeah. Like that," Colbert recalled, "Because part of the job is--the old gig as I remember it, was that to be lowered like carbon rods into a radioactive pool every day and then to be pulled out and put in front of a camera. And to eradiate it back at the audience at a nonlethal rad level."
intranet imageKimmel agreed, "That's right. That's exactly the job description."

At no point did it become necessary for comedians to become indistinguishable from MS NOW hosts.
They would disagree. They must hunt Trump through the Moons of Nibia and round the Antares Maelstrom and round Perdition's flames before they give him up!

York PA Police Repeatedly Refuse to Shut Down a Black "Teen Takeover" Near Campus Housing, Even After Four 911 Calls;
Eventually the Thugs Drag White Female College Students by the Hair and Beat Them Senseless
—Disinformation Expert Ace
"Decarceration" plus "equity in justice."
You can't send young thugs to jail because that's just the "school to jail" pipeline.
And we must generally empty the prisons, because prisons are racist.
And also, we need Equity in who gets sent to jail, so if black men commit crimes at 6-8 the rates of whites, we're just going to have to immunize 75% of black criminals from the law so that we can get those numbers to look good.
Also, it's Racist Misinformation to report actual crimes involving black people, so the media is going to have to embargo the story and smear anyone pointing it out as a racist.
And here you go. College students repeatedly called the cops to complain of a "teen takeover" right in their street and the cops, not wanting to arrest black thugs -- gotta keep those numbers down, we can't have a "school to jail" pipeline -- simply refused to even do a drive-by to scare the rioters off.
Eventually, the rioters started beating up girls who disrespected them by just being on their own porch.
">And no one's allowed to even talk about this, because whites are just going to have to accept some Street Reparations from time to time.
Pennsylvania college students beaten unconscious, dragged by hair as mob invades off-campus houseBy Nicholas McEntyre
Several female Pennsylvania college students were brutally assaulted by a mob of agitators who had invaded their off-campus house during an apparent illegal street takeover.The unidentified coeds, who attend York College of Pennsylvania, were dragged by the hair, punched, kicked, maced and beaten unconscious in the attack as they were sitting on the front porch of their rental home Saturday morning, according to Fox 43.
Whose porch? OUR PORCH!
"After the first punch was given, all these girls started to rush us, and that's where it kind of gets blurry because I think people were coming at me... I turn and see my friend get dragged by her hair down our porch steps and disappear. My other friend got dragged by her hair," one of the students told the outlet.
Dozens of suspects pummeled one of the students as she lay on the ground while a separate group of assailants unleashed a barrage of punches at another girl outside the home, according to videos obtained by Fox 43 and WGAL.
The violent attack took place just north of campus on the 300 block of W Jackson Street in York, Pa.
Hundreds of people had shown up to the area for an illegal street race when commotion drew the crowd to the students' location.
The students claim the heated confrontation was ignited when one of the suspects verbally accosted the group outside their home just before 1:50 a.m. as they told the mob to leave the property.
"One of the cars street racing smashed into a parked car by the firehouse, which is right next to the house. When this happened, all of the townies migrated over towards the house and on the grass. We all asked them to move off the property, and that's when everything erupted," one of the victims told Fox 43."I remember looking at our friend in the knee brace when I got caught off guard and ripped by my hair off the porch," she said. "From then, I was dragged to the stop sign and that's when everyone jumped me. I was getting kicked by probably 12 people at the same time."
The student said she was defenseless because she was trying to hold her tube top up with one of her arms as she was pummeled in the face.
The one victim believes she blacked out at least twice during the assault, once when she was kicked in the ribs and another when she was struck in the head.
Only after the fifth 911 call, when informed the mob was beating girls unconscious, did the police dare to interrupt the Mostly Peaceful Street Takeover.
Actual Justice Warrior -- video linked below -- notes that the media is downplaying this, when they report on it at all. The local media reports it as the girls "claiming" to be beaten, despite the attack being filmed by the thugs themselves, and further suggests this is just a "fight" or "brawl" and that maybe it was the white college girls who picked a fight with the black mob that took over their street.
This article, for example, calls it a "fight," because a "fight" sounds better than a racial lynching.

Rabid Left-Wing Students Waved "Kirkaversary" Celebration Cakes Smeared with Fake Blood in Conservative Students' Faces. The Conservative Students Filmed This Display. The University Moved to Expel the Students -- For Filming the Death-Celebrants!

This week, the University of Utah is perpetuating perhaps the most grave injustice against conservative students I've ever seen.
Rylie is the Vice President of College Republicans at @UUtah, and is currently being threatened with EXPULSION by the University because she perpetuated "threatening and endangering behavior" by taking a photo of Sara, a student involved with College Democrats, when Sara showed up to their table last week with a "Happy Kirkaversary" cake smeared in fake blood & waved it around in Rylie's face.
Of course, *that* wasn't threatening behavior in any way, but Rylie taking a photo of the exchange completely legally is apparently grounds for EXPULSION.
If you are an alumnus of the University of Utah, call the Alumni Department TODAY and demand the Administration honor Rylie's legal right to take a photo. And if you donate money in any way, shape, or form to U of U, STOP immediately. These people are not your ally.
Praying for you and cheering you on, @Rylieparis05!

James Talarico Super PAC Caught Paying $25 Per Vote -- and Admitting Doing It on Hidden Camera Video
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Texas Democrats have come up with a scheme to pay voters to cast ballots for their candidates, a video obtained exclusively by Townhall Media shows.Sky McAdams, organizing manager for Texas Majority PAC, was caught on video dishing on the scheme they hope will propel Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico to victory in November.
"We are paying people $25 to attend a one-hour Zoom class to learn why voting is important and why the Republicans are causing all of these bad things," McAdams says in the undercover video. "So it's like a roundabout way of paying people for their votes, essentially."
It's very much like that, as a matter of fact.
In the video, McAdams says it's called a "paid relational program," which is operated by Relentless that uses software called Rally.
The theory is voters will be persuaded more by friends and family than a stranger showing up at their door.
"You can't pay someone to vote for someone," McAdams says in the video. "You can't be like, 'Here's $25, go vote for me.' You can say, 'Attend a one-hour class and you can receive $25.' And then the class just talks about the importance of... It's a little gray," he continues, apparently referring to the legality of the activity.
"If I was a Republican, I would be pissed. I would be like, that's shady as f**k."
Correct. It is shady as f***, and I am in fact pissed.

British Medical Journal: The FDA and CDC Used a Faulty Algorithm to Understate Vaccine Injuries. When One Researcher Pointed Out the Flaw, She Was Told to Mind Her Own Business.
—Disinformation Expert Ace
I'm not willing to assume "just an accidental oversight."
In fact, I'm very much assuming enemy action.
Adam Urato, MD @AdamUrato1
Must-read investigative article in The BMJ.Clear safety signals of Covid vaccine harms (in red below) were missed by FDA & CDC by using a flawed method where the harms went undetected.
"The agency's PRR analyses--examined by The BMJ--show that hundreds of types of adverse events met the agency's criteria for a signal" (including myocarditis, pericarditis, Bell's palsy, and tinnitus.)
The FDA doctor who alerted them to the flawed safety system was muzzled. "She was told, with diplomatic flourish, to back off."
Above, the images show a correct analysis of vaccine harms, showing lots of red flags.
The images on the right show the FDA's and CDC's "accidental" understatement of vaccine injuries -- all green flags.
Whoops!
Whoopsie!
US officials knew covid vaccine safety system was flawed--but turned aside the FDA doctor who alerted themUS officials embraced an algorithm for detecting signals of harm from mRNA covid-19 vaccines that they knew was broken and suppressed efforts to fix it.
David Willman reports:
Before covid-19 vaccines were rolled out to Americans in December 2020, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) assured healthcare providers that the agency was on the lookout for any harmful reactions. A key part of the CDC's strategy was its Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which receives such reports after vaccination.
"It is the nation's frontline system for monitoring vaccine safety and the early warning system for detecting possible vaccine safety problems," said Tom Shimabukuro, deputy director of CDC's Immunization Safety Office, on 30 October 2020.
Millions of people were to be vaccinated each week, and the CDC would rely on statistical "data mining" of the VAERS database to quickly identify any safety signals in need of further probing.
Two well recognised, separate algorithms were to be used. The first involved calculating "proportional reporting ratios" (PRRs), which sought to identify types of reactions reported to VAERS disproportionately or more frequently than background rates. The second data mining technique, called "empirical bayesian," was to be provided by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which operated VAERS jointly with the CDC, and the two agencies planned to share and discuss results.
But in a little noticed September 2022 letter, CDC director Rochelle Walensky said that the agency did not perform PRR analyses for signals until 2022. This was more than a year into the vaccine rollout and was intended, she wrote, "to corroborate" the FDA's approach. Instead of using the PRR and empirical bayesian methods jointly during the pandemic, Walensky explained that both the CDC and FDA instead "chose to rely" on empirical bayesian, which she characterised as "a more robust technique."
It doesn't appear to be "more robust." What it appears to be is deliberately crippled to hide vaccine injuries.
The BMJ, however, has found that the FDA's algorithm was mathematically compromised by the deluge of covid vaccine adverse event reports--resulting in a near total loss of signal detection sensitivity for the new mRNA vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna. Top FDA officials were warned internally of this problem in early 2021, and the official who headed its pharmacovigilance division for vaccines commented more than two years later to his CDC and FDA colleagues: "We were aware of this [data mining] limitation before and during the pandemic." Government documents also show that CDC officials were informed during rollout of the vaccines--on multiple occasions.Yet instead of fixing the safety deficiency--or shutting down the unreliable signal detection system--officials continued to rely on the FDA's broken algorithm. The officials also cited the absence of signals when assuring clinicians and the public of the vaccines' safety.
At the FDA, managers went a step further by silencing the career drug safety officer who had repeatedly brought the deficiency to their attention and had offered an updated algorithm intended to fix it. As a result, Americans received unfounded assurances of the safety of the most widely used covid vaccines and were denied prompt warnings of potential harms, The BMJ's investigation found.
...
"I'm perplexed that myocarditis isn't alerting"In late February 2021, CDC and FDA officials received notice of "a large number of reports of myocarditis, particularly in young people," after vaccination. The warnings of myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the pericardium) came from the Israeli Ministry of Health. In a private meeting five weeks later, the Israelis informed a CDC convened covid vaccine safety committee that two of the 77 vaccinated people with myocarditis or pericarditis had died.
The next week, the same committee heard from the Pentagon's Defense Health Agency, which reported a "cluster of cases" of myocarditis among male US military members.
US public health officials remained sceptical of a link to the new mRNA vaccines. "We have not seen a signal [for myocarditis], and we've actually looked intentionally for the signal in the over 200 million doses we've given," CDC director Walensky told reporters.
By May 2021, VAERS had received hundreds of reports of myocarditis and pericarditis after covid vaccinations, and the CDC began alerting healthcare professionals. While the agency was still unsure of a causal relationship, it decided to alert physicians more broadly through a "clinical considerations" web posting.
But oncologist Peter Marks, who as director of the FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research was the agency's top covid vaccine regulator, objected. He questioned the CDC's imminent website announcement, emailing Walensky directly, highlighting the lack of any safety signal from the government's own surveillance: "We still have concerns here [at the FDA] if myocarditis and pericarditis have not actually signaled . . . Can you help me understand why we are doing this when pediatricians and others in the community already seem to be aware?"
...
Still, VAERS reports continued to mount, with myocarditis attracting the greatest attention. In a June 2021 public presentation, the CDC's Shimabukuro showed that, for young males (age 12-24), VAERS had received between 29 and 347 times more myocarditis and pericarditis reports than the agency expected based on background incidence rates. In a public statement that day, the CDC dubbed myocarditis an "extremely rare side effect."
Government records show that, the day before his presentation, Shimabukuro had received the FDA's latest data mining report--and it continued to show no signal. "I'm perplexed that myocarditis isn't alerting for either of the mRNA vaccines," Shimabukuro emailed a colleague.
Early warningsThe BMJ can reveal that the FDA's algorithm failed to signal a potential relationship between mRNA covid vaccination and myocarditis, pericarditis, Bell's palsy, tinnitus, and other reported disorders owing to a flaw in the detection methodology--a flaw that senior officials declined to rectify.
If I understand the next section, I believe they are saying the FDA's and CDC's faulty algorithm compared covid "vaccine" VAERS reports to all VAERS reports, and would only flag the "vaccines" as problematic if they showed many more VAERS reports than all other reports.
But the problem is -- and this should have been obvious -- that 90% of the public was "vaccinated" with the covid "vaccines," so if you compared "vaccine" incident rates to all reported incident rates -- they were practically the same number. The FDA and CDC used an algorithm to detect a covid "vaccine" signal against the sea of all other incidents, but covid "vaccines" were so common, numbering the many tens of millions, that covid "vaccine" incidents were the sea they were checking against.
It's like a Venn diagram where the circles almost completely overlap. If you're comparing "vaccine" incidents to "background" incidents but "vaccine" incidents make up 90% of the background, everytime you check, you'll find that "vaccine" incidents are very similar to "background" incidents, because "background" incidents are made up mostly of vaccine "incidents."
And thus, they kept claiming: We don't see any pronounced spike of "vaccine" incidents compared to all other incidents, without telling you that the background data they were checking against was mostly covid "vaccine" data.
The problem arose because, in the first year of the rollout, almost all the reports coming into VAERS--more than 90% of 1.1 million--were for the mRNA covid shots, dwarfing vaccines for all other diseases. This meant that analysing the safety of one vaccine, for example Pfizer's product, involved comparing it to other vaccines, which were overwhelmingly limited to Moderna's product. But if both mRNA vaccines elevated the risk of an adverse event like myocarditis in roughly equal amounts, the "observed" frequency and "expected" frequency would be similar, resulting in no automated alert. The statistical phenomenon is known as "masking."
And I wonder if this "masking" effect was accidental, or intended.
Imagine if you wanted to see if covid was affecting ethnic Chinese people more than non-ethnic Chinese people. In China. So you compare the rates of ethnic Chinese people in China to all people in China, and find that there is no difference between ethnic Chinese people and all people in China.
But your data for "all" people in China is 95% ethnic Chinese! Of course you found no difference in the rates of infection! You're comparing Data Set A to Data Set A + 5% other data and finding the two are barely different at all!
No more than 5% different, in fact! Not statistically significant!
Szarfman and DuMouchel, who earned his PhD at Yale and by 2010 became chief statistician at Oracle Health Sciences, judged that the unique circumstances of the pandemic meant that the FDA's approach was missing safety signals..."Regarding the NYT article, I am quite concerned," Szarfman emailed Marks two days later. She wrote that the agency should be "clamoring to fix this problem." < Szarfman concluded, "Let me know if you want Bill DuMouchel and I to discuss our proposal for more effective monitoring, including the need to use an updated algorithm by DuMouchel for data mining spontaneous reports."
...
Marks and his staff, however, declined to alter the FDA's existing approach--and agency officials did not publicly warn of the deficiency with finding safety signals. When Szarfman continued to press the matter, she was told, with diplomatic flourish, to back off.
That email, sent on 7 May 2021, by Craig Zinderman, associate director for medical policy in FDA's Office of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, began: "Good Afternoon Ana, Thank you again for talking with us back in March about your work exploring new data mining approaches . . . We are writing to kindly ask you to please hold off on creating and sending data mining reports and analyses using covid-19 vaccine AE [adverse event] data."
I would say "incredible" but we have seen again and again that 90% of the output from government, from NGOs, from academia, from corporations is pure fraud on the public.
THE MORNING RANT: By the Logic of Free Traders, Shouldn't Trump's Tariffs Be Good for Canada and its Consumers
—Buck Throckmorton
There is something puzzling about the U.S. / Canadian trade war and the concern that Trump-hating “free traders”* have on how this will affect Canada. [*Actual free trade involves reciprocity, but those now identifying as “free traders” argue for unilateral surrender to foreign mercantilism, even when it involves hostile nations such as China.]
It is widely accepted that if President Trump doesn’t dial back his tariffs, Canadian industry will be devastated, its economy will be thrown into recession, and there will be widespread job losses and layoffs in Canada. I would agree that all sounds awful for Canadians, but over the past few decades, American “free traders” have argued in favor of inflicting on the U.S. the same economic despair that Trump is imposing on Canada. Free traders consider a dying industrial town in the Midwest to be a success story, while they sneer at the despair of their countrymen who have lost the dignity of employment. Closed American factories and a gross trade imbalance with hostile powers are celebrated by free traders.
Where are all the think pieces from Principled Free Traders arguing that it will benefit Canada to roll over and surrender in its trade war with the U.S., since that is the argument they make for U.S. capitulation to China?
David Harsanyi is representative of America’s “free trade” political class, arguing repeatedly that American economic sovereignty is bad, while dependence on hostile foreign countries is desirable. At least that is the clear message I receive. He has written for many legacy conservative publications, repeatedly arguing for economic surrender to China because it would help American consumers save money, while embracing China’s trade barriers on U.S. products. A few years ago Mr. Harsanyi wrote “Now, admittedly, I support nearly unlimited trade, no matter what other nations do.” He went on to say, “Let's hope trade doesn't get ‘fair’ for us any time soon.” Mr. Harsanyi even expresses his ideal of zero U.S. steel production, dismissing the argument that a domestic steel industry is necessary for national defense.
By these arguments, shouldn’t Canadians also hope that their trade war “doesn’t get fair any time soon”? Shouldn’t Canadians embrace tariffs that destroy their export market? Shouldn’t Canada seek the elimination of every possible job so as to lower consumer prices? And wouldn’t any retaliatory tariffs imposed by Canada be a “tax on Canadian consumers” that should be avoided at all cost?
How devastating are the tariffs going to be for our northern neighbor if an agreement is not reached? A piece in the Globe and Mail titled “What Trump’s new tariffs mean for Canada’s economy” identifies multiple economic catastrophes, including:
• A collapse in exports that would reverse Canada’s GDP growth.
• Elimination up to 20% of jobs in many industries, including apparel and electrical equipment
• Devastation of Canada’s liquor industry.
• Serious harm to agriculture, especially Canada’s dairy industry
• Devastation of British Columbia’s lumber industry
The same free traders who cheered for the shuttering of American industry are suddenly worried about Canada, and defending Canada’s need to impose retaliatory tariffs. Go figure. It’s almost as if the abiding principal of “principled free traders” is that they are anti-American globalists who embrace economic policies that harm America while benefiting other countries.
Canada’s Prime Minister, Mark Carney, just stated that tariffs are necessary to protect Canada, arguing that the cost of tariffs “don’t come close to the cost of standing still.”
Free traders swooned in concurrence with PM Carney. “The Editors” at National Review defended Canadian retaliatory tariffs, arguing that it was a necessary escalation by Canada because the U.S. tariffs are a “blow for Canadian exporters.”
This is the same National Review that repeatedly argues for giving China unfettered, tariff-free access to the American market, irrespective of China’s trade barriers against American exports. Why would NR make this argument? Because, tariffs are a tax on American consumers, of course. Strangely, that same logic doesn’t apply to Canadian consumers when Canada is tariffing American products due to a trade war.
It’s almost as if the underlying “principal” among the “free traders” isn’t actually free trade, rather it is a globalist, America-last attitude that seeks to harm the U.S. economically for the benefit of other countries.

The Morning Report — 9/ 18 /26
—J.J. Sefton
Earlier this week, a federal judge made a shocking charge: Larry Krasner, Philadelphia’s district attorney for nearly a decade, may be guilty of “perjury, conspiracy, or obstruction of justice.” Judge Paul Diamond referred Krasner and one of his top deputies, Matthew Stiegler, to the U.S. Attorney’s Office to investigate potential federal crimes.
As we all know, or should know Krasner is a bought and paid for agent provocateur of anti-American traitor and bustout proud admitted Nazi war criminal/collaorator George Soros. Here's a bit of Krasner's rap sheet courtesy of the invaluable DiscovertheNetworks. Keep this website handy as it is a go-to resource of the who's who of traitors destroying America from within
Running as a Democrat, Krasner stated that his top priority as District Attorney “will be ending mass incarceration in Philadelphia.” Said his campaign website: “The cost of imprisoning one person for a year pays the salary of a young public school teacher, social worker, or police officer engaging in appropriate community policing. Resources could instead be invested in job training and addiction treatment. Mass incarceration simply won’t heal our torn social fabric, and does not make us safer.”
...Policy of Non-Prosecution & Non-Incarceration Krasner was sworn in as Philadelphia D.A. on January 1, 2018. Soon thereafter, he issued a non-prosecution policy memo to the attorneys in his office, mandating that criminal prosecutions for various offenses should be either minimized or abolished altogether. As a result of Krasner’s new guidelines, it became commonplace for the Philadelphia D.A. office to drop criminal charges against even the most dangerous defendants. Between January and September of 2020, for example, Krasner’s office dropped charges on more than 60% of all shooting cases in the city, as well as 37% of illegal firearms cases.
THIS TWISTED Bastard and his coven have devoted themselves to the destabilization of society which has the net effect of destroying it, the goal of the Anti-American American Left and Democrat Party for decades.
Again as we all know or should know, besides Krasner, every major and many minor urban areas as well as states have DAs and Attorneys General bought and paid for by George Soros.
Progressive DA network: The Hive’s investment in local prosecutorial elections transforms local law enforcement into a policy instrument—declining to prosecute certain categories of offense (shoplifting below $950 in California, drug possession, trespassing) effectively nullifies legislation.
Yeah, surprise surprise, this is who they have running for senator in Arkansas
Arkansas Democrat Senate nominee Hallie Shoffner vowed to "redirect" the "considerable resources of the federal government" away from "punishment" and toward "treatment and compassion" as part of a push to spend taxpayer money "in an equitable fashion," video footage reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon shows.
Meh this filthy slag is representative of every single Democrat running for office at every level. Compassion for the criminals and degenerates but not for the victims, since We the People are the criminals who have to be punished for the original sin of America as founded

The radical ally of Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed said in an interview Thursday that the United States has committed more terrorism than the radical Islamic group behind 9/11. Hasan Piker told Axios that, “pound for pound,” the United States had killed more people than al-Qaeda, the organization that plotted and carried out the September 11, 2001, terror attacks. Piker, a popular leftist streamer who once said America “deserved 9/11,” has campaigned alongside El-Sayed.
SO why am I getting so exercised about Krasner and his ilk since El-Sayed and the Muslims will have us all under Sharia Law once they gain power. No way Krasner will face any real justice but once the head-choppers and clit-clippers rule the roost his head will roll soon thereafter as history has shown us time and again once allies of convenience are no longer needed.
Have a great weekend one and all.

Hasan Piker re-affirms that he believes America is a bigger terror threat than Al Qaeda.
Left-wing streamer Hasan Piker tells Axios he believes America conducts more terrorism in the world than al-Qaeda, the terror network that carried out the 9/11 attacks."Pound for pound as far as the number of deaths, yes," Piker said in an exclusive interview for a new episode of "The Axios Show." Piker added: "We have caused tremendous terror all around the world."
He now says that while what he said was right, people with names like "Hasan" and "Abdul" (the Senate candidate who he's palling around with) aren't allowed to utter such truths.
AWFUL: Lindsay Clancy shouldn't be punished because she's already been punished enough for "losing her children." She didn't lose them, she strangled them to death. This is the apotheosis of the old joke, "Your honor, please have mercy for my murder of my parents. I'm an orphan, your honor."
By the way, when asked to endorse "justice for the children," this degenerate, twisted hag refuses.
Was Martin Udall right? He was definitely right about a large swathe of women, nearly the majority.
The women of Piddington have a possible savior. The UK is planning to cram 1,250 Muslim men into a base just next to the town of a mere 350, giving the "newcomers" a 3-to-1 majority over the actual citizens. Plans have been discovered showing the government actually plans to settle over 3,500 "newcomers" there, but they swearsies that that plan has been abandoned and they would never!
So, while the UK government does not care at all about the fact that the women of Piddington will become free-range rape prey for the almost uniformly military-age male "newcomers," they do care about a species of newt which may be endangered by the sudden influx of rapists.
Basil the Great @BasilTheGreat🚨BREAKING: The illegal migrant camp planned for Piddington may be CANCELLED due to a protected species of NEWTS being found on the site
So let me get this straight...
The Government care more about the safety of NEWTS than Women and Girls?
The town recently voted to declare itself independent from the UK, but obviously the UK will not permit that. You are Tax Cattle to be farmed and slaughtered. And raped. You are chattel.
On the other hand: Andy Burnham has promised to let Scotland again vote to leave or stay part of the UK, and Wales and Northern Ireland want a vote too.
Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales leaders to meet tomorrow to plan breakup of UK: Report
The leaders of Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales will meet on Monday to discuss plans for the breakup of the United Kingdom, according to The Telegraph.First Ministers John Swinney of Scotland, Rhun ap Iowerth of Wales, and Michelle O'Neill of Northern Ireland are expected to sign a joint declaration demanding the right to hold referendums on breaking away from the UK. For the first time, the three constituent nations of the UK are held by pro-separation parties.
The Telegraph reported sources as saying that the summit's purpose is to pile more pressure on Prime Minister Andy Burnham after he said in the parliament on Wednesday that he would back another Scottish independence referendum if public opinion backed one.
A source close to Swinney told the newspaper that Burnham "fucked up" by making the comment and unionists should be very worried.
The source further said: "Burnham has not read his brief and doesn't seem to know the basics of the UK Government's position on the Union. If I was a Unionist, I would be very worried."Ahead of the summit, Swinney said that Burnham was "facing up to the idea that he will go down in history as the final prime minister of the United Kingdom".
Swinney said that that, for the first time, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland are led by pro-independence parties, and "there could be no clearer sign that the status quo is not sustainable and that Westminster must prepare for a post-UK future".
...
The separatist movements in the UK have picked up pace lately as US President Donald Trump has ramped up his anti-British campaign. After threatening to back Argentina in the campaign to wrest the Falkland Islands off the UK, he has now supported Northern Ireland's separation from the UK and merger with Ireland.
Meanwhile, EU leader and Bond villain Ursula Von Leyden has offered Canada an "associate membership" in the EU, which means that they get no advantages at all but get to be ruled over by Ursula and her 400 MEP besties, which is the same deal all actual EU members get.
And there is no such thing as an "associate member."
Brussels was hit with a furious backlash today after announcing unprecedented plans for Canada to become an 'associate member' of the bloc -- without asking EU capitals to sign off on the proposal.EU diplomats told the Mail they were kept in the dark and first learnt of the proposal when Ursula von der Leyen, the EU Commission boss, unveiled it during a keynote speech.
During the top Eurocrat's annual State of the Union speech to the European Parliament, she repeatedly love-bombed Canadian premier Mark Carney -- who was in the chamber -- saying Brussels wanted 'to bring the relationship with Canada to the highest level possible.'
But to the surprise of diplomats from the EU's 27 member nations, who would have to sign off the move, she gushed: 'Dear Mark, I said we must urgently reimagine our partnerships. So, I would like to work with you on opening the door for Canada to be the first associate member of the EU.
'We share one ocean, one set of values, one way of seeing the world. And we will now build our shared future as well -- thank you for being here.'
But the attempt to flatter the former Governor of the Bank of England backfired, with diplomats saying they were never briefed about the proposal and that, in effect, 'associate membership' doesn't even exist.
EU diplomats accused Brussels of 'over-reach', an accusation often levelled against Eurocrats by UK Brexiteers before Britain left the bloc.
One EU diplomat told the Mail: 'This bombastic announcement is just not right.
'There will be a summit at the end of October, so logically they will talk about deepening the relations.
'But no one has ever seen an associate membership and no idea what it means in practice. Canada is a valuable partner for the EU, one of the few currently in the world where we share the values, so it is nothing against Canada.
'But first and foremost the member states should be the ones to express what kind of relationship the EU wants to have with any third country.'
Another added: 'She kept this bit of associate membership out of the text until the last moment. She also did not mention it up front to EU member states.
'It seems like she is a bit too far out in floating this. Everyone is positive about Canada, and wants to strengthen the relationship.
'But there is a lot of uncertainty about what von der Leyen envisages by coining this label.'
Trump has reasserted the old Monroe Doctrine, stating that the western hemisphere is the US's sphere of influence, and rejected Europe's attempt to colonize the west.
Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh21h
🚨 HOLY CRAP! Donald Trump just said if Canada becomes an associate member of the European Union, he might consider it a "HOSTILE ACT" and could enact tariffs or stop trading OUTRIGHT with Europe
TRUMP: "Canada has been a TERRIBLE partner." 🔥
This DOES sound like a hostile act: why else would Canada do this other than to think joining the EU gives them leverage in a trade war over America?
It's EXACTLY why Trump is right to be slapping Canada with tariffs until they stop treating Americans unfairly
The EU isn't saving Canada from an invasion by Russia or China, yet they treat the US the worst!

US Poverty Rate Falls to Lowest Level In History
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Well, as long as we've been keeping track of it, anyway.
And median (average) household income hit a record high.
Wait until you see how the media spins this.
The U.S. poverty rate edged down to the lowest on record in 2025, while median household income hit a record high, the Census Bureau said on Tuesday. There were 34.5 million people in poverty in 2025, the agency said.The decline marked the second consecutive annual drop in the poverty rate and brought it to its lowest level since the bureau began tracking the measure. It came as policymakers debate the impact of federal spending cuts on safety-net programs.
The poverty rate -- the percentage of people living in poverty -- dipped 0.5 percentage point to 10.2% last year, the bureau said. The supplemental measure of poverty, which takes into account non-cash government benefits and taxes, was at 13.1%, and the median household income increased 2.6% to $87,460.
The media very begrugingly stated that the poverty rate fell, but only "slightly, and then added that "experts" "fear the worse" is still to come.
Compare that to how they reported child poverty falling under Biden.
And also note that child poverty under Trump has fallen to the lowest level in recorded history, which they don't bother underlining.

Paramount/Skydance to California: Drop Dead
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Paramount is being bullied by California AG Rob Bonta in a lawsuit 12 other left-wing AGs have joined to stop Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros. As I've mentioned, they are animated by the all-but-admitted position that conservatives just aren't allowed to own major media companies, or just non-gonzo-liberals, as David Ellison seems to be. They are blocking the completion of the purchase so that the company they prefer to take over Warner Bros., the super-left-wing Netflix, can buy it instead.
Which shows their complaints about anti-trust and "reducing competition in the industry" to be, as usual, communist lies.
This is a particularly bad hostage situation for Paramount, who, as part of its offer to buy Warner Bros,, promised to pay Discovery Warner shareholders seven million dollars per day if it was not able to complete the purchase by October 1. Rob Bonta and his Soros AG goons are trying to delay this to either punish Paramount for daring to be owned by a non-liberal, or punish them so badly they agree to undo the deal entirely.
In response, Paramount threatened to leave California and take Warner Bros. with it. A move that some estimate would save them a half a billion per year in taxes.
They said they would move their corporate headquarters by October 1 unless Bonta and the League of Soros AGs allowed the sale.
Now Paramount is showing that they're not bluffing.
Paramount Skydance is actively looking for office space in Nashville -- a sign the company is seriously considering moving at least some operations from Los Angeles amid the legal fight over its purchase of Warner Bros. Discovery, according to two people familiar with the search who were granted anonymity to discuss it.Paramount, headquartered in Hollywood, has sought about 400,000 square feet of space in the Tennessee capital that it could move into in two to three years, according to one of the people. However, no existing building there has a vacancy that aligns with the company's needs and timeline, the person said.
Representatives of the studio have also reached out to at least two real estate developers about constructing new offices in Nashville that the company could occupy in three years, the person said. Paramount representatives were recently shown a vacant multi-acre parcel outside of downtown Nashville where the company could build new headquarters, according to the other person with knowledge of the matter.
...
"His intent is to be committed to California," Paramount Chief Legal Officer Makan Delrahim said of Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison at POLITICO's The California Agenda: Sacramento Summit in August. But, Delrahim noted, "There is a point at which you have a fiduciary duty to shareholders."
..."We cannot comment on a company's plans," Bonta's office said in a statement. "It's no secret that Paramount has been making this threat, despite its alleged commitment to California and Hollywood. What Paramount decides to do is Paramount's choice alone. We'll continue to apply the law without fear or favor and continue to be open to coming to the table for good faith discussions."
The lawsuit is scheduled to go to trial in March. Starting in October, Paramount will have to pay roughly $7 million for each day the $111 billion deal remains incomplete. Regulatory agencies of more than 60 countries and jurisdictions have approved the merger, and the U.S. Department of Justice approved the sale in June.
I thought that Nashville, not Austin, would be the city Paramount/Warner Bros. moves to. Because it has long been the capital of the country music recording industry, it already has the infrastructure needed to support entertainment types, by which I mean, a robust cocaine distribution network and discrete high-end prostitutes.
The move could be so disastrous for the already-desolated California that even Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass are calling for a "compromise" settlement. I don't know what they have in mind, but I would guess they want a guarantee that Paramount/Skydance will sell CNN, HBO, and CBS to friendly leftwing interests. There is no way Paramount/Skydance would sell HBO or CBS, but I imagine they already plan to sell off CNN.
Per Google's AI, here's the potential economic fallout if Paramount/Skydance does abandon the state:
Why Leaders Are Pushing for CompromiseWhile Hollywood creatives initially signed letters opposing the merger due to fears of corporate consolidation and job cuts, the threat of Paramount leaving the state has shifted the stakes completely. Industry analyses indicate a worst-case scenario where a total relocation could devastate the local entertainment ecosystem, risking:
Up to 58,000 full-time jobs statewide.
$21 billion in annual economic output.
Over $1.1 billion in lost annual state tax revenue.
I hope they follow through with the threat.
Study: Blue States with Strong Teachers Unions Influence Have, for Some Reason, the Lowest Student Literacy Rates in the Nation
—Disinformation Expert Ace
You know those teachers unions only care about the kids.
It's all about the kids, you know. When they shut down the schools for a year and a half so that teachers could sit at home on their asses and literally phone in their lessons, that was all for the kids, too.
Their lazy, greedy stance has resulted in the worst literacy rates in the nation.
Blue states with strong teachers' unions overwhelmingly have worse student literacy scores than Republican states where educators don't have as much say over policy, a shocking new analysis found.
This is a novel use of the word "shocking" I wasn't previously aware of.
At least eight of the ten states where students had the worst literacy scores were liberal strongholds with politically powerful teachers' unions, while just five were Republican and one was a swing state, a recent assessment from the Progressive Policy Institute (PPI) found.New York -- where more than half of third- to fifth grade students failed their reading proficiency exams this year -- was among the worst-performing states, and also had some of the strongest teachers' unions.
The top-performing states, meanwhile, were overwhelmingly conservative and had less politically powerful unions -- of the 23 top-performing states, 13 were Republican majority and just 4 were Democratic hubs.
Even with the findings stretched out to the top 32 best-scoring states, a mere 7 were Democratic states and only four of them were ranked in the 25th percentile for teachers' union power, according to the Wall Street Journal.
...
And Canter's study found one overwhelming and shocking throughline -- the stronger the state's teachers' union the worse its student literacy scores were, results which did not exclusively follow party lines but strongly trended that way and often to the detriment of Democrats.
"Democrats, however, don't often ask me how to replicate Mississippi's success," Canter said. "They ask if it's possible at all, given the power of teachers' unions in their home states."
,,,
"We found a strong, negative correlation between the two -- the more powerful the unions, the fewer literacy policy principles the state had adopted," Canter said.
In New York state, they've decided they will just stop teaching students and, so parents won't know, they'll stop administering the Regents Exam, which tests for minimum educational achievement at graduation.
Not enough students from "different communities" were passing the minimum standards exam, while Asian students passed at a rate of 86% and white students at 87%.
So instead of solving the problem, or at least ameliorating it, they'll just destroy all records of their failure.
What is more shocking is that a board member of the Regents exam explains that asking black and Hispanic kids to pass a minimum-competency test is like... testing a fish to see if it can climb a tree. Fish can't climb trees, and therefore, she implies, black and Hispanic kids are just not capable of passing a minimum-standards test and should be excused from doing so.
But you're the Racists, Racists.
Neetu Arnold @neetu_arnoldNew York Regents member Felicia Thomas-Williams on why she thinks students shouldn't have to take Regents exams to graduate:
"You don't assess a fish on climbing a tree because fish can't climb trees"
Maybe asking a student to read or do math on a test is a little more reasonable than asking a fish to climb a tree?

A Haitian Woman Attacked and Then Gnawed On the Face of a Woman, Disfiguring Her Forever.

Woman convicted of disfiguring biting attack given reduced sentence because she's Haitian
Tristin Hopper: In a decision released this week, the Quebec Court of Appeal ruled that four years was too harsh, in part because it could possibly get her deported
Four years is "too harsh" for eating the face of a stranger and disfiguring her for life?
By Tristin HopperA Haitian woman who disfigured a stranger in a Montreal-area biting attack has been given a reduced sentence by a Quebec judge on the grounds that a harsher prison term would endanger her "precarious immigration status."
Just two days after Christmas in 2022, Macdala Monfiston spent eight minutes viciously attacking a woman outside a bar in Laval, Que., leaving the victim with bite marks all over her arms and face.Court records described one of the facial wounds as being "several centimetres long, necessitating repeated treatments and leaving a prominent scar."
Video of the assault obtained by The Journal de Montreal shows Monfiston pulling the victim's hair, kicking her motionless form on the ground and straddling her body while biting at her face.
"When I tell people I was bit, they ask me what kind of animal, if it was by a pit bull. They can't believe it's a person who did this to me," the victim told the paper in a French-language interview.
Although good Samaritans attempted to intervene, they were held back by Monfiston's boyfriend.
After Monfiston pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in early 2025, a Court of Quebec judge sentenced her to four years in prison -- the sentence already a fraction of the maximum 14-year sentence set for the crime under the Criminal Code.But in a decision released this week, the Quebec Court of Appeal ruled that four years was too harsh, in part because it could possibly get her deported.
Under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, anyone jailed for longer than two years is deemed guilty of "serious criminality," and loses their appeal rights in the case of a removal order.
"The prison sentence has a much greater impact on the defendant than on other offenders who might have committed similar acts," reads the French-language decision, rendered on Sept. 14 by appeals court judges Suzanne Gagné, Christine Baudouin and Genevieve Marcotte.
I'm done with Canada. I'm done with Europe.
Cut them off and leave them to rot.
And it's time to consider separating some states from the US.
Kathy Hochul's pardon travesty lifts immigrant criminals over Americans' safetyBy Daniel McCarthy
How far will New York Gov. Kathy Hochul go to keep immigrant criminals in this country?
So far she'll even pardon a man convicted of an aggravated felony, if that's what it takes to prevent the US Supreme Court from setting a restrictionist precedent.
Keisy Guerrero Mariano is a Dominican who spent two years in prison for committing a violent crime -- second-degree assault.
Guerrero Mariano, known as "G.M." in court documents, is exactly the sort of lawbreaker Americans overwhelmingly want to see deported.
But not Hochul; she granted him clemency on Aug. 28.
His case stood out from those of the other five people she pardoned that day.
The others were non-violent offenders who'd committed their crimes decades ago -- two in the 1980s, two in the '90s, and just one as recently as 2007.
G.M. was convicted in 2015.
Yet the governor decided he merited special leniency, for political reasons.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested G.M. in 2020, intending to deport him based on his criminal record.
ICE had to let him go in 2022, however, because of a nationwide injunction related to COVID that required the agency to review custody of individuals with certain medical conditions.
While ICE had him, though, G.M.'s lawyers challenged the agency's right to hold him for a prolonged time without a bond hearing.
That's what Hochul's pardon is really about.
President Donald Trump's Justice Department planned to make the Dominican's appeals a test case before the Supreme Court -- one likely to establish that G.M. and others like him are not entitled to a bond hearing.
Bond hearings are an easily exploited weakness in America's immigration security: They protract the legal process of deporting lawbreakers, while also giving them an opportunity to get out of detention temporarily -- and then permanently, by failing to show up when they're due for their next hearing.
G.M. came to this country legally in 2011, but he forfeited any right to remain here once he committed a felony.
Now Hochul has nullified his conviction to undercut ICE's grounds for removing him, and to collapse the appeals process that was leading to the Supreme Court -- and a probable defeat for those who want to make deportation as difficult as possible.
Below, video of the horrifying biting attack by the nurse/doctor/engineer. You can see the biting going on in background. And halfway through the mauling, samaritans come by to stop it, but her boyfriend, who is also a future tech mogul on the level of Tony Stark, block people from assisting the ravaged woman so that his feral monster of a girlfriend can finish eating her face.
You can't see much but it's still horrifying. You have my blessing if you want to skip it and take it as read into the record.

Mike Rogers to Rigged Debate "Moderator:" Drop Dead
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Republican candidate for Senator from Michigan Mike Rogers has done the unthinkable and refused a debate with radical Islamic dogslayer Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed because the "moderator" is not moderate all. She's a leftist hack with a history of open partisanship on El-Sayed's behalf.
The Republican announced he will not participate in Tuesday night's FOX 2 Detroit debate, with his campaign pointing the finger squarely at moderator Roop Raj and what it describes as Raj's demonstrated history of "bias and favoritism" toward El-Sayed.
"Michiganders deserve to see their candidates engage in a healthy, fair debate -- not one compromised by media bias," said Alyssa Brouillet, communications director in a statement. "Roop Raj has made his position clear, from praising Abdul as 'brilliant,' to being celebrated by Hasan Piker as 'my GOAT,' and bragging about his political stunts. Mike looks forward to making his case to working families and to making Abdul answer to voters for the conman he is."
Relatedly: MSNOW's hard-left political operatives -- Symone Sanders was a campaign spokeswoman for Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris, so you know she's a Real Journalist (TM) -- get on Hasan Piker not about his pro-terrorism, pro-murder stances, but for not following the Democrat election-deception campaign of "moderating" his speech for 50 days to Con the Rubes.
Western Lensman @WesternLensman
MSNOW had Hasan Piker on their podcast with Symone Sander and Eugene Daniels.Fascinating exchange here.
The legacy media hosts simply can't wrap their heads around why Piker won't shut up and/or moderate for election season.
Daniels: "You've said you want to be helpful. So why do things that you know are going to be harmful?
Piker: "Because if it's not me, it's something else regardless."
Daniels: "You don't know that."
They're talking about comments Piker made over the 9/11 anniversary. (While he still has the photo of the flaming towers on his wall here).
Look at the hosts' expressions and reactions during the clip.
They know he's an election liability so they are absolutely perplexed as to why Piker is going to do Piker things.
The Democrat playbook demands you moderate for an election then go back to being a leftist extremist.
Sanders is former campaign operative, so she especially is confounded here as someone who knows how to execute that playbook.
