WATCH: Steven Crowder Infiltrates ‘Fat Studies’ Conference, Absurd Academic Paper Gets Accepted

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Conservative comedian and commentator Steven Crowder thought he’d try to expose the utter absurdity of modern academia — and it only took him a few months to do it.

Crowder said he’s now a peer-reviewed “expert” in the field of “Fat Studies” and had his ridiculous academic paper, titled, “Embracing Fatness as Self-Care in the Era of Trump,” accepted.

The conservative first pulled off the prank in 2020 but posted the video to his YouTube page on Monday. It’s since garnered nearly 1 million views[:]

Crowder went under cover as Sea Matheson, a fat pride activist, who submitted “her” very own fat studies paper for a presentation titled “Embracing Fatness as Self-Care in the Era of Trump.” Due to COVID, the in-person conference was canceled, but luckily, there was still a virtual conference.

Crowder’s abstract was accepted by the chairwoman Cat Paus, a self-described fat study scholar who scheduled Matheson to speak alongside other intellectual titans.

WATCH: Michael Flynn Claims Bill Gates, George Soros to Usher in ‘New World Order’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .[Michael] Flynn spoke to Clay Clark of The X22 Report as he claimed World Economic Forum Executive Chairman Klaus Schwab, Microsoft Founder Bill Gates, and right-wing bogeyman George Soros are in on the insidious, supposed scheme.

“These are all people that are part of this conspiracy, really…Not just to understand what’s happening outside of our skin, but to get under our skin,” Flynn claimed. “These are very real and very — actually — they’re very dangerous people. These are people that see a global world order.”[:]

These are real people, these are real things. They have an intent to have a New World Order. They have an intent to track every single one of us, and they use it under the skin. They use a means by which its under the skin.

These Biden Actions Drove Gas Prices to Historic Highs

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .[I]t’s not as simple or as nefarious — at least not on the part of oil and gas companies — as the Biden administration would like you to believe. And now, thanks to Rep. Jim Banks’ (R-IN) team at the Republican Study Committee, there are a lot more examples — 81, to be exact — of Biden’s actions that led to consistently rising gas prices since he took office. . .

On January 20, 2021, Biden signed an executive order directing the federal government to review and rescind President Trump’s policies that made the United States energy independent. Biden’s first actions also included increasing emissions regulations and restricting domestic energy. And, of course, he killed the Keystone XL Pipeline. The average price for a gallon of gas: $2.379.

Through his first months in office, Biden continued taking actions that cut off America’s rich fossil fuels and artificially incentivized alternative energy sources. There was another executive order focused on enforcing “environmental justice.” A decision to double the amount of wind energy on federal lands. A moratorium on oil and gas leases. And Biden put the United States back into the Paris Climate agreement. By mid-April in Biden’s first year, the national average for a gallon of gas had risen to $2.855.

Summer 2021 saw more anti-fossil fuel actions from the Biden administration, including a Department of Justice “Climate Action Plan” and a Department of Energy determination to ramp up regulations that would direct buildings away from using fossil fuel energy sources. By September, the national average for gas had reached $3.176.

The Biden administration continued through the fall to rescind or revoke President Trump’s actions and policies that had incentivized American energy and promoted safe, clean drilling and production to make the United States an energy-independent country. More “climate action plans” from federal agencies were released that further regulated and disincentivized reliable American energy. The Biden administration went after financial institutions to urge them not to do business with fossil fuel companies, required federal properties and contractors to move away from oil and gas, and went all-in on falsely-named “green” energy instead.

NYC Mayor Calls the City a ‘Laughing Stock’ Due to Rising Crime

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) said over the weekend that his city is now a “laughing stock” due to its ongoing rise in crime.

The New York Post reported that Adams made the comments at the annual New York Police Department Holy Name Society communion mass and breakfast at the Midtown Hilton. He reportedly pointed out two separate shootings last week that injured a 3-year-old and 7-year-old.

“Anything goes in the city of New York,” he stated at the event. “The most important city on the globe has become the laughing stock of the globe.”

Adams noted that the violence in New York has caused a ripple effect in the rest of the United States.

“The dysfunctionality of our city has cascaded throughout the entire country,” he added. (Read more from “NYC Mayor Calls the City a ‘Laughing Stock’ Due to Rising Crime” HERE)

Man Who Kidnapped 26 Children, Buried Them Alive, Receives Parole After 45 Years

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A man who kidnapped and buried a bus full of children and their driver was released for parole Friday, according to spokesperson Joe Orlando of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, CNN reported.

Frederick Newhall Woods, 70, and two co-conspirators kidnapped 26 children and their driver in Chowchilla, a northern California city in Madera County, in 1976, CNN reported. They buried the 27 captives alive in a quarry Woods’ father owned and then demanded $5 million ransom, according to CNN.

The captives dug themselves out and escaped while Woods and Richard and James Schoenfeld slept, CNN reported. Woods, the last of the men still in prison, had his 18th parole hearing Friday at California Men’s Colony, a state prison in San Luis Obispo. He became eligible for parole in 1982, and Richard Schoenfeld was paroled in 2012 and James Schoenfeld was released in 2015, CNN reported.

Oscars Hosts Taunt Florida: ‘Gay, Gay, Gay, Gay, Gay.’ Desantis Press Secretary Drags Them: ‘Florida Will Never Recover From This’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Three supposed comediennes co-hosted the Oscars Sunday night, as the show, which has been reeling from its plunge in ratings in recent years, attempted to win America over. Co-host Wanda Sykes decided she would alienate plenty of people in Florida by attacking them over the state’s Parental Rights in Education legislation, sniping, “Well, we’re going to have a great night tonight. And for you people in Florida, we’re going to have a gay night.”

She then joined co-hosts Regina Hall and Amy Schumer to chant like defiant four-year-olds, “Gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay.”

Christina Pushaw, the press secretary for Florida GOP governor Ron DeSantis, who reportedly supports the bill, mocked the trio of faux-comediennes with a succinct and lacerating tweet: “Florida will never recover from this.”

The trio of co-hosts didn’t stop at attacking Floridians; Schumer taunted white women, snapping,“I am representing unbearable white women who call the cops when you get a little too loud.”

Hall prompted Sykes, saying,“You know, this year, we saw a frightening display of how toxic masculinity turns into cruelty toward women and children.” (Read more from “Oscars Hosts Taunt Florida: ‘Gay, Gay, Gay, Gay, Gay.’ Desantis Press Secretary Drags Them: ‘Florida Will Never Recover From This’” HERE)

Largest University System In US Eliminates Standardized Testing

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The largest four-year university system in the United States has removed SAT and ACT scores from its application requirements, marking a significant shift in the national discussion to eliminate standardized testing from admissions decisions.

Removing the requirement will “level the playing field” for all students, acting Chancellor Steve Relyea argued after the California State University’s Board of Trustees unanimously voted Wednesday to scrap standardized testing. The move will diversify the school system’s student body by removing obstacles that often hinder some prospective students from applying, the board said.

“In essence, we are eliminating our reliance on a high-stress, high-stakes test that has shown negligible benefit and providing our applicants with greater opportunities to demonstrate their drive, talents, and potential for college success,” Relyea said in a statement.

The California State University has utilized a “test-free” admissions system for the last two academic years “in response to the pandemic and other factors challenging students and families today.“

In lieu of standardized testing, the board of trustees said it would utilize a set of “multi-factored admission criteria” to admit prospective students, such as their high school GPA, extracurricular involvement, and household income.

Joe Biden Now Says He Was Not Calling for Regime Change in Russia; White House Walking Back Biden’s Remarks on Removing Putin From Power Doesn’t Quiet the Chatter

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden said Sunday he was not calling for Russian President Vladimir Putin to be removed from office, in a speech he delivered Saturday in Poland.

Back in the United States, reporters shouted a question to the president about his speech as he attended church Sunday evening in Washington, DC.

“Mr. President, do you want Putin removed? Mr. President, were you calling for regime change?” a reporter shouted.

“No,” Biden replied before entering his presidential limousine and motorcading back to the White House.

The president’s response is the first time he personally addressed his comment that shocked the world after he said Russian President Vladimir “cannot remain in power.” (Read more from “Joe Biden Now Says He Was Not Calling for Regime Change in Russia” HERE)

White House Walking Back Biden’s Remarks on Removing Putin From Power Doesn’t Quiet the Chatter

By Townhall. After President Joe Biden during his Saturday speech in Warsaw called for removing Russia’s Vladimir Putin from power, the White House has since walked back the president’s remarks. “For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power,” Biden had said. These remarks came even after the White House, in the form of remarks from both White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki and Secretary of State Antony Blinken had earlier this month that it was not the administration’s position to support regime change.

Shortly after the speech, Wall Street Journal reporter Tarini Parti tweeted back a response from the White House. The response in part claimed that Biden “was not discussing Putin’s power in Russia, or regime change,” even Biden himself had clearly said “this man cannot remain in power,” referring to Putin.

In case there’s any question, Putin heard Biden’s calls for regime change, as Marisa Schultz reported for Fox News, citing Rebekah Koffler, a Russian-born former Defense Intelligence Agency officer, who said “Putin heard loud and clear a call for regime change.”

Tellingly, this line wasn’t even planned, and came as a surprise to more than those just following along on Twitter. Ed Wheelan highlighted as much at length in a Twitter thread, as he too raised concerns about the potential ramifications for Biden’s remarks.

Ukraine: Blundering Toward Apocalypse?

/0 Comments/in , /by

Having an open mind on the Ukraine situation earned me some gratuitous insults last week. Seems Putin (aka “Putrid”) is “exactly like Adolph Hitler” (which somehow means he wants to conquer Europe and put the communist Soviet Union & Eastern Block back together). And I am “exactly like Neville Chamberlain, willing to sell out your fellow man’s freedom for peace in our time.” An otherwise reasonable person wrote that. Guess I missed “Putrid” murdering millions in death camps. Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Zelensky, aka Mr. Freedom, who has actual Nazi battalions in his army, banned a dozen dissident political parties and two TV stations.

The vibe around the Ukraine situation feels a lot like the vibe leading up to the invasion of Iraq. Dictator Saddam was portrayed as a middle-east Adolph Hitler, murdering babies, grave threat to the USA etc. We were lied to about the WMDs and alleged terror training camps. None existed. In fact, Saddam had Christians in his cabinet and was standing on the necks of the Jihadis, who were a threat to his rule. If he’d had WMDs he would’ve used them. Nothing to lose once the invasion started. Thanks to the Bush administration’s lies, over 6,000 American warriors died for nothing, 60,000 maimed, probably $10 Trillion wasted-stolen-pocketed, over $100,000 from each taxpaying American. Our invasion of Iraq caused vastly more death and destruction than Saddam ever did or ever would have. And hundreds of thousands of Christians were displaced, many of whom had their heads displaced, Christian communities destroyed that had survived for 2000 years in Iraq.

Back then, for questioning the Iraq invasion and subsequent corrupt “nationbuilding” quagmire, I was lumped in as “You, Dan Rather, Jane Fonda, and Tom Brokoff (sic).”

Once again, those who would save America First as a priority, who question the USA nannying the world while our country and economy are destroyed from within and invaded from without, are called disloyal, dismissed for being reticent to threaten and confront Russia over Ukraine, the assumption being that Russia’s nuclear capability is a bluff.

What if it’s not a bluff? What’s the cost to humanity? Our leaders have been very wrong about the thinking of nuclear powers in the past. See Catastrophic thinking on nuclear weapons, by Dominic Cummings, 3-18-2022[.]

Some conservatives (and all neo”conservatives”) say “we” should confront Putin. But “we” is the same Obama-Biden-Harris-Milley-Vanilli team they correctly ream for the disastrous Afghan withdrawal that left $80 billion in weapons for the terror sponsors we supposedly went in to oust 20 years ago, achieving nothing but another 6,000 dead and 60,000 maimed Americans and more trillions wasted-stolen-pocketed. Neo”cons” actually trust these clowns to confront a nuclear power in wartime as a co-belligerent without getting us all killed. And they call you a traitor if you question it. See Biden’s Reckless Words Underscore the Dangers of the U.S.’s Use of Ukraine As a Proxy War, by Glenn Greenwald, 3-27-2022[.]

The tens of trillions of dollars squandered by big government in wars, “nationbuilding”, lockdowns, vaccine mandates, blocking oil production, destroying small businesses, and paying people people not to work is the cause of the current inflation and $6 gasoline, crushing the middle & lower income classes.

It’s abundantly clear Obama-Biden-Harris-Clinton and their neo”con” allies provoked Russia’s invasion with their 2014 Ukrainian coup d’etat, threatening to put Ukraine in NATO, running bio-weapon labs in Ukraine etc. See Oliver Stone’s documentaries and any number of articles, including:

Professor John Mearsheimer Explains Who Is Responsible for the Ukraine-Russia Crisis

If our warmongers wanted to allow it, the crisis could still be ended by letting Ukraine become a neutral non-NATO country. Their goal is to sacrifice Ukraine as a tool for Russian regime change, further threatening Putin. And the sanctions are just as likely to exacerbate the war as end it. See Reporting from Moscow: Sanctions May Achieve the Opposite of Biden’s Stated Long-Term Goals, by Dimitri Simes Jr., 3-27-2022[.]

Finally, our “cheap labor” ruling elites are using the Ukraine crisis they provoked as an excuse to import millions of Ukrainian “refugees” even though Europe has already offered to take them all, thereby accelerating the already crushing hikes in our cost of land, gasoline, and “housing”.
