“The worst thing to be in many Democratic primaries? A white male candidate,” declared a June 2018 Washington Post headline. Yet with the march of identity politics and demographic change, the same can now be said of many Republican primaries.
In fact, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and top GOP strategists have been actively courting non-white and female candidates for the 2022 midterms.

Being young and energetic, former Democrat presidential contender Andrew Yang was hailed as a breath of fresh air. But some (erstwhile?) fans are now saying he seems more like the ill wind of politics as usual. The issue? Yang has caved to the mob regarding assailed podcaster Joe Rogan.
As 1010 WINS radio reported Monday, “Andrew Yang, a former New York City mayoral [candidate], has apologized after tweeting…comments defending Joe Rogan, claiming [on Sunday that] the podcast host isn't racist.”
“‘I don't think Joe Rogan is a racist — the man interacts with and works with black people literally all of the time,’” 1010 WINS continued, quoting Yang.
“‘Do I know black friends of Joe's who would swear by him? Yes I do,’” Yang had added.
Then he subtracted — deleting the tweets — and, say critics, detracted from his own reputation. That is, Yang issued the following early Monday apology….

Telling the truth about COVID-19 can get you canceled. But criticizing Islam can get you convicted or your head cut off — in France, anyway.
It is there, after all, that some people must live under police protection because they apparently ran afoul of Sharia law dictates. Meanwhile, France’s authorities are also busy protecting Islam from criticism, with a Gallic politician becoming just the latest prominent person to be charged with a crime for warning about Islamization.

Having trees dating back to before America’s discovery, it’s known as “Grimm’s fairy tale forest.” But it now faces a grim fate, being slated for denudation to make room for a wind farm.
The place that will become, ironically, less green in going green’s name is the Reinhardswald State Forest in Germany, home to 600-year-old oaks and beech trees that have seen four centuries.

Throughout 2021, we witnessed rancorous school-board meetings in which parents pushed back against Critical Race Theory-defending, child-masking officials. Not only were these patriots often met with a let-’em-eat-cake attitude, but, conspiring with others, Attorney General Merrick Garland actually characterized them as domestic terrorists. But, being more like freedom fighters, this didn’t stop these parents from winning school-board seats last year. And now one reformed board in Colorado has struck back against the Establishment, firing their district’s woke school superintendent.

It’s said that it takes a big man to admit it when he’s wrong. It also sometimes takes at least a medium-sized man to accept an apology gracefully.
And some would say that the Establishment vs. Joe Rogan battle is at least one man short.
Rogan is America’s most popular podcaster, with each of his shows drawing approximately 11 million listeners. But he has been on the run recently due to “misinformation” allegations relating to his having interviewed guests with non-Establishment views on COVID-19. After all, nothing but the government-approved narrative is allowed now.
Rogan has apologized, too, essentially for not being perfect; that is, everyone at times spreads “misinformation,” defined as the unintentional expression of an untruth. And his mea culpa was issued at the behest of an Establishment that actively spreads disinformation, the intentional expression of untruths (a.k.a. lying). Yet it hasn’t mollified his critics.
And now the next shoe has dropped.

The flights touch down in the dead of night at a secondary airport, where and when, hopefully, few will notice. They’re part of an illegal human trafficking operation — run by the Biden administration and targeting many different states.
The kicker is that you, taxpayer, are footing the bill for this nation-rending illegality to the tune $340-plus million.
What’s more, this operation reflects what was allegedly occurring during the Barack Obama administration: the purposeful seeding of the United States with illegals to change our country’s demographics, move citizens “into the shadows,” and eliminate opposition to the leftist agenda.

Perhaps the biggest story to come out of the Beijing Olympic Winter Games thus far is that of Eileen Gu, the “American” skier who has decided to compete for China.
Of course, American is in quotation marks because it’s perhaps more accurate to say that, in spirit, Gu is not so much an American skier as a skier born in America, or at least in San Francisco. The 18-year-old is certainly noncommittal herself, having told Red Bull’s Bulletin recently, “When I’m in America, I’m American. When I’m in China, I’m Chinese.” Apparently, Gu, whose father is American and mother a Chinese immigrant, identifies as nationality fluid.
But since not everyone believes (not yet, anyway) the internationalist fancy that nationality is a spectrum, Wu’s decision has evoked some expected criticism, with many calling her a traitor.
Yet Beijing doesn’t call Gu — who goes by “Gu Ailing” in China — anything but an opportunity.

The ironic thing about the mainstream media attack on Joe Rogan for allegedly peddling “misinformation” is, some observers may say, that it itself is not at all in the nature misinformation.
It’s more like disinformation.
In fact, the mainstream media becoming indignant about Rogan (or most anyone else) spreading falsehoods is a bit like Kim Jong-un slamming Switzerland for human-rights abuses.
As most know, popular Spotify-hosted podcaster Rogan has been under assault for daring to venture beyond the Establishment box; in particular, for interviewing figures such as mRNA-technology pioneer Dr. Robert Malone and renowned COVID-19 physician Dr. Peter McCullough, Rogan has been branded a dangerous purveyor of “misinformation,” which deeply and profoundly offends our Truth-loving media, of course.
Sarcasm aside, what are the real reasons the powers-that-be seek Rogan’s cancellation?
