Not his favorite: Biden bashes Elon Musk and Twitter for spreading ‘lies all across the world’

President Joe Biden criticized Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter during a campaign rally in Illinois on Friday, warning the new ownership would lead to the spread of “lies all across the world.”

The president lamented Musk’s suggestion that he would roll back Twitter’s content moderation policies, arguing it would lead to a spread of misinformation on the site.

RIGHT-WING COALITION WINS IN ITALY, AMERICAN PRESS LOSES ITS MIND

Italy held its national elections on Sunday, and the results already have the global left seeing red. Exit polls show that the right-wing alliance will win a sizable majority, with a government being formed behind Giorgia Meloni as Prime Minister.

Meloni will be the first woman in the country’s history to hold the position.

So who is Meloni? She’s the leader of the Brothers of Italy party and a populist firebrand. Here’s a 30-second video that provides a good summation of her viewpoints.

“Yes to natural families, no to the LGBT lobby, yes to sexual identity, no to gender ideology, yes to the culture of life, no to the abyss of death, no to the violence of Islam, yes to safer borders, no to mass immigration, yes to work for our people”

Naturally, someone who has those political views must be evil, at least according to the American press. As election day approached and it looked more and more certain Meloni would triumph, the fearmongering was turned up to the max. CBS News did a report accusing her of being a fascist because that’s the only insult they know.

Meloni does not, in fact, lead a “neo-fascist” movement. Is she “far-right” in the European sense? Sure, she is, but that doesn’t make her a fascist, and as far as I can tell, none of her proposed policies are fascist. They may make those on the left upset, especially regarding immigration and LGBT stuff, but that’s not the standard for fascism.

Ironically enough, American Democrats base their accusations on the fact that Meloni’s party has its historical roots in turn-of-the-century fascism in Italy. Of course, the problem with that is obvious. The Democrat Party was the party of slavery and Jim Crow, and it remains a party of mass death in regard to abortion. So if the assertion is that a political party with a checkered history is unacceptable, then the Democrats might as well close up shop, otherwise, they are just massive hypocrites.

They won’t, though, because they truly believe they are more enlightened than their political opponents. If you don’t want kids being sexualized by the LGBT lobby, then you must be a fascist. If you don’t want unlimited Muslim immigration that is driving up crime rates, then you must be a fascist. We all know how the game is played, and it’s all meaningless at this point. No one takes the left’s rantings seriously.

Regardless, what has been made clear over the last year is that Europe is shifting. Right-wing governments are talking power all over the continent, and that’s because the left overplayed their hand. They thought they could usher in an era of deranged cultural decadence coupled with economic malaise without consequences. Obviously, voters have different ideas.

So much for declaring the island a “sanctuary city” back in 2017.
Elitists gonna elitely virtue signal until it’s shoved in their face, then the hypocritical proggie/lob standard -NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard)- goes into effect

Massachusetts Governor Activates National Guard as Martha’s Vineyard Migrants Removed from Island.

Massachusetts governor Charlie Baker said Friday he is deploying up to 125 National Guard members in response to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis sending a group of just 50 illegal immigrants to Martha’s Vineyard.

“Our Administration has been working across state government to develop a plan to ensure these individuals will have access to the services they need going forward, and Joint Base Cape Cod is well equipped to serve these needs,” the governor said.

The national guardsmen will meet the immigrants at Joint Base Cape Cod on the mainland. Buses retrieved the group of Venezuelans from St. Andrews church in Edgartown on Martha’s Vineyard Friday morning, roughly 24 hours after they arrived on the island.

Gun for me, but not for thee. Another elitist get hung out to dry on their own hypocrisy.

Gun Theft Highlights Cognitive Dissonance of Democrat L.A. Mayoral Candidate

U.S.A. – -(Ammoland.com)- “Two firearms stolen in a burglary at the home of L.A. mayoral candidate Karen Bass,” The Los Angeles Times reports:

“Bass communications director Sarah Leonard Sheahan confirmed to The Times that the guns belonged to the congresswoman and said they were secured in a Brinks lock box. Leonard Sheahan said the weapons were legally registered …”

That “cash, electronics and other valuables” were “left behind” suggests that the object of the break-in was to get the guns, making fair the question of who knew Bass had them and how it is that they knew. That Bass and her press handlers consider guns in an easily carried lock box to be “safely and securely stored,” though, does comport with what her boosters at Mike Bloomberg’s Everytown consider to be “common sense gun safety,” that is, rendering a gun useless in a home intrusion.

That’s not quite true. It’s quite useful as stolen property, particularly in the commission of later violent crimes, feeding Everytown’s demands for more “common sense.” And that’s what Bass, currently a Democrat congressional representative for California’s 37th District, purports to represent.

“Karen Bass has committed to governing with gun sense as a priority,” Gun Sense Voter, “a project of Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund and Everytown for Gun Safety Victory Fund, with Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America,” declares.

“I’m proud to be a 2022 Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate and I’m also proud to have earned an F grade from the NRA,” Bass echoes on Facebook. “Los Angeles deserves a mayor we can trust to stand up to the gun lobby, not cower before them.”

Invent much? When was the last time an L.A. mayor did that? But yes, of course, she’s a doctrinaire gun grabber.

“Bass Votes for Assault Weapons Ban,” a July presser announces. Others show her on board for anything and everything the antis demand imposing:

We could do this all day, but the point is made. As is her continued cognitive dissonance.

“Rep. Karen Bass, D-Los Angeles, points to how gun violence is also a racial issue,” Spectrum News 1 reported. “Black Americans are twice as likely as white Americans to die from gun violence.” Assuming that in her leadership position with the Congressional Black Caucus, and noting that “Latino and Black victims account for nearly all of L.A.’s surge in homicides,” it’s also fair to ask — if she ever did have to use a gun for self-defense — does Bass think it’s likely she would add to that “disproportionate” racial impact?

That’s assuming she could get one out of the lock box and deployable in time and forgetting she co-sponsored a resolution to repeal “stand your ground” laws.

Jennifer Lawrence Pushes Gun Control After Making Tens of Millions from Films with On-Screen Firearms

Actress Jennifer Lawrence, who has used guns ranging from pump shotguns to .45 caliber pistols on-screen in four different films, is pushing gun control for the American people in a new interview with Vogue.

In the Vogue interview, which is set to hit newsstands on September 12, 2022, Lawrence complained that “people are still voting for politicians who receive money from the NRA.”

She added, “It blows my mind. I mean if Sandy Hook didn’t change anything? We as a nation just went, Okay! We are allowing our children to lay down their lives for our right to a second amendment that was written over 200 years ago.”

The Internet Movie Firearms Database (IMFDB) notes that Lawrence has used five different firearms in the course of four films:

  • She used a 12-gauge, double-barrel shotgun in Winter’s Bone (2010)
  • She also used a Remington 541 bolt-action rifle in Winter’s Bone
  • She used a Glock 17 9mm in House at the End of the Street (2012)
  • She used an M1911A .45 ACP in X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)
  • She used a Remington 870 Shotgun in Joy (2015)

The actress earned $6 million for the X-Men sequel and $15 million for her starring role in Joy.

Vogue noted that Lawrence made clear her belief that the U.S. Supreme Court’s June 23, 2022, ruling, striking New York’s proper cause requirement for concealed carry, was actually a means of “expanding gun rights.”

Breitbart News reported that Associate Justice Clarence Thomas pointed summarized the gist of the ruling by noting the Second Amendment protects an “individual’s right to carry a handgun for self-defense outside the home.”

Vogue described Lawrence as “incensed” by the ruling.

NY Gov. Hochul’s Office Cannot Say Whether She Is Giving Up Good Guys Who Protect Her With Guns

Breitbart News contacted New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s (D) office Thursday to see if she would disarm the good guys who protect her with guns in the same way that she is forcing average Americans with guns to disarm around New York.

Her office could not say whether Hochul will be giving up her good guys with guns.

The person with whom we spoke indicated here has been no policy statement on it yet.

On September 1 Breitbart News reported that Hochul tweeted information on the state’s new gun controls and contended that good guys with guns do not stop armed bad guys.

FOX News quoted Hochul saying, “This whole concept that a good guy with a gun will stop the bad guys with a gun, it doesn’t hold up. And the data bears this out, so that theory is over.”

On August 31 Hochul tweeted the many locations in which law-abiding citizens will be prohibited from being armed for self-defense:

But Hochul’s office could not say whether or not the Governor will retain the good guys with guns who keep her safe day in and day out.

Breitbart News suggested Hochul’s retaining armed protection for herself, after barring law-abiding, average Americans from being armed for self-defense, could give the impression that the lives of average Americans are not held in the same high esteem as the lives of the ruling class. We were transferred to Hochul’s press office after making that point, and our call was answered by voicemail.

Crosby, Stills & Nash Back on Spotify After Failed Joe Rogan Boycott

Crosby, Stills and Nash have decided to return to Spotify, following their boycott of the streamer that began in February to protest podcaster Joe Rogan’s content. That boycott failed to oust Rogan from the streaming platform.

According to Billboard, the group’s music returned as of Saturday. CSN will reportedly donate proceeds from streams to Covid-19 charities for at least one month……………

Remember, this is from the establishment that won’t show pictures of people jumping from the World Trade Center after the 9/11 attacks because that would be ‘prejudicial and inflammatory’.

Comment O’ The Day

Lets do the same for the massive carnage taking place in Americas major cities every single day – the black on black death count is staggering

There were 13,654 black American victims of homicide in 2020 – that’s 37 a DAY

In 2020 those identifying or identified as Black or African American
made up 13.5% of the U.S. population, according to CDC estimates (that
for definitional and other reasons don’t quite match the results of the
2020 U.S. Census). They also made up 55.6% of the homicide victims, and
65.6% of the increase in homicides relative to 2019. To put it another
way, the homicide rate for Black Americans rose from 22.9 per 100,000 in
2019 to 30.7 in 2020. For all other Americans, the rate went from 3.2
to 3.8.

And to point out about the above; By the FBI’s own uniform crime report, most black Americans (88%+-) are killed by other black Americans

It’s time to show the real horror of mass shootings. In pictures.

****

I lack the moral standing to tell a parent to accept and approve, for the greater good, the public display of photos of his or her dead child. Only they can judge the additional weight that doing so would place on them, at a time when they are already struggling with unimaginable grief. Nor do I suggest the release of any images in particular. But something graphic is required to awaken the public to the real horror of these repeated tragedies. Robb Elementary School in Uvalde is a crime scene. If there were a case to go to trial, the prosecution would have to present publicly the shocking evidence of guilt. Put another way: Why must innocent schoolchildren, for the rest of their lives, carry the vivid memories of the executions of their teachers and classmates, while federal and state lawmakers (and the adult constituents who elect them) are spared?

With Inflation at Historic Highs, Biden Stoops to New Low in Blame Game.

Polls show that inflation has become the top issue for Americans, and as it hit historic highs, it’s been absolutely killing approval ratings for Joe Biden and the Democratic Party. In response, Biden has blamed COVID-19, Putin, Republicans, big oil — pretty much anyone whose name he can remember will get blamed for the 40-year-high inflation we’re experiencing.

However, Biden’s blame-everyone-else strategy hit a new low this week; The Washington Post reports that Biden is now blaming White House aides for the nation’s inflation woes.

“Biden has privately grumbled to top White House officials over the administration’s handling of inflation, expressing frustration over the past several months that aides were not doing enough to confront the problem directly,” the Post reported…………….

Lest we forget. Hypocrite SloJoe blames everyone but himself for his goobermint.
