Good morning kids.
Good morning kids. CBD and I mused on the latest edition of the podcast, here and in the sidebar as well as on the usual platforms listed below, is the Democrat Party tearing itself apart over actual policy or merely over tactics. As the late great Rush Limbaugh of blessed memory stated time and again, if Democrats were open and honest about the policies they supported, they'd never win any election. Of course, electoral fraud notwithstanding. And of course, generational Democrats still perceive of their party being led by FDR, that is the mythological media/generated image of FDR, It's why to this day, the titanic lie of the Democrat Party as the party of civil rights and justice is still swallowed whole by ignorant dupes who vote for the party of slavery and Jim Crow believing that post 1964 the several hundred segregationists instantaneously switched parties and became Republicans. But I digress.
So with that as a set-up, there's this item to chew on:
The Democratic Party’s attempt to “resist” President Donald Trump is backfiring, the latest I&I/TIPP poll shows. A plurality of American adults now believe the one-time party of the center has gone too far to the left.
Voters who responded to the online national poll of 1,421 adults, taken from June 25 to June 27, were asked the following question: “Do you think the Democratic Party has become too radical in its views and policies?”
A strong plurality of 45% of all poll respondents said yes, while 36% said no and another 18% said they weren’t sure. The poll’s margin of error is +/-2.7 percentage points. . .
. . . I&I/TIPP went a little further on a second question, asking: “Should Democrats in Congress work with President Trump when possible, or should they focus on resisting his agenda?”
Overall, voters preferred for congressional Democrats to work with Trump, rather than simply opposing his agenda. Among all respondents, 46% answered “work with Trump,” 19% said “resist Trump,” a sizable 26% said “depends on the issue,” with only 9% “not sure.”
Summed up, that means that an overwhelming 72% would like to see Democrats cooperate with Trump, at least on an issue-by-issue basis. Just 19% would resist all Trumpian initiatives.
And yet despite all of that, how does one explain the rise of Momdani in NYC and this Fateh/Fatah whatever in Minneapolis? Of course Curtis Sliwa has virtually zero chance in NYC, but when as one pundit claimed even Anthony Weiner looked sane in comparison to Momdani. And Democrats still could have gone with Cuomo or even Eric Adams who is now running as an independent. Sadly, if as expected this cancer does become the candidate, the voters will reflexively vote him in simply because he has that magical "D" designator by his name. And yet it was not that long ago that New Yorkers twice chose Rudy Giuliani and then Michelito Lo-Lo Bloomberg despite Tammany Hall and a thoroughly corrupt Marxist city council. What the hell happened in the intervening years?
So are the Democrats really TOO "radical" for their own good or is it that they are too open and honest about who and what they always have been which is radical, period.
On a not necessarily unrelated subject, there are a couple of links that certainly shed some light as to how our society in many frightening ways sank so low as to make Momdani, Bro-Fo Omar, Bernie Sanders and Obama appeal to far too many of our fellow citizens when the reaction to them should have been utter revulsion.
America’s colleges and universities have long been the bright lights of our civilization. For nearly four centuries, they have pioneered new fields of knowledge, brought the arts and sciences to new heights, and educated the men who built our republic. But over the past half-century, these institutions gradually discarded their founding principles and burned down their accumulated prestige, all in pursuit of ideologies that corrupt knowledge and point the nation toward nihilism…
. . . The universities have capitulated to the radical left’s “long march through the institutions,” which has converted them into laboratories of ideology, rather than institutions oriented toward truth.
. . .The universities have contributed to a new kind of tyranny, with publicly funded initiatives designed to advance the cause of digital censorship, public health lockdowns, child sex-trait modification, race-based redistribution, and other infringements on America’s long-standing rights and liberties.
And it starts in Pre-Kindergarten all the way through to past-graduate:
The National Education Association Representative Assembly met for four days earlier this month. This annual event usually reveals how deplorable the organization is, and this year was no different. . .
. . . But the most outrageous speech at the convention—and perhaps ever given—came from NEA boss Becky Pringle, who ranted on about how those in power are “trying to erase the truth of our history. They want to whitewash the past so our students are denied the full story of who we are. They want to silence all of the pain, all of the struggle. Even in the telling of the triumphs, their narration is incomplete. They want to stop our students from looking inward to see their own dignity or outward to a diverse world filled with possibility and pride.”
Worse than the content was Pringle’s tone, which was way beyond hysterical. If you watch this 36-second clip, you will get the idea.
. . . In 1906, Congress granted the NEA a special status among U.S. labor unions as a federally chartered corporation to “elevate the character and advance the interests of the profession of teaching and to promote the cause of education in the United States.”
Since the union has obviously failed miserably in its mission, GOP lawmakers are trying to revoke its charter. On July 16, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., and Reps. Mark Harris, R-N.C., Mary Miller, R-Ill., and Ralph Norman, R-S.C., introduced the latest proposal to repeal it. The new legislation was introduced following reports that the NEA prioritized politics over education at its annual meeting.
In light of what American academia has done to the minds of at least three generations of students, it's a miracle that Ronald Reagan was elected let alone the coming of Donald Trump and the glimmer of hope that the MAGA movement will engender a true American renaissance.
That said, we don't have a chance unless and until we wrest control of the education of future generations from these evil degenerate pied-pipers of perversion, dissolution, anti-civilization and tyranny.
So, in 2028 is it Greasy greasball Newsome, Titty-Caca, the Bro Fo, Beto and his E.L. Fudge special filling cookies, or even Hunter Biden?! who will lead the Democrats to victory . . .
Gee, what a surprise, Hilary Clinton was a falling down drunken pill-popping maniac hopped up on alcohol, uppers and antipsychotics and her own ego. If only Putin shared that intel with Trump in 2016? Pfft.
