Morel – Summer 2023 – Claremont Review of Books What does The State of Black America have to do with Progress, Pitfalls, and the Promise of the Republic? Has the United States been more boon than bane to Africans on American soil and their descendants? These questions are disturbing for the simple reason that they continue to be asked generations after racial slavery was abolished and de jure segregation ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court.

No. 10 Oregon blows out No. 19 Colorado and Coach Prime 42-6

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Bo Nix threw three touchdown passes and No. 10 Oregon emphatically slammed the brakes on Coach Prime’s “Cinderella story,” routing No. 19 Colorado 42-6 on Saturday. The Ducks (4-0, 1-0 Pac-12) were up 35-0 at halftime after coach Dan Lanning sent them into the matchup of unbeatens with a fiery pregame speech that took direct aim at the star-studded, hype machine that has followed coach Deion Sanders’ team for the first three weeks of the season. It was a big-game atmosphere, but the Buffs (3-1, 0-1) were no match for the Ducks. Troy Franklin caught eight … Continue reading No. 10 Oregon blows out No. 19 Colorado and Coach Prime 42-6

Berkeley Professor Admits She ‘Incorrectly’ Identified as American Indian

JOHN NOLTE – 5 May 2023 – Breitbart California-Berkeley sociology professor Elizabeth Hoover has admitted she is not an American Indian after posing as one for her “whole life.” What’s with all these Elizabeths pretending to be Indians? Professor at Cal-Berkley, Elizabeth Hoover, ‘incorrectly’ identified as an Native American https://trib.al/X0DcPoe Hoover’s gazillion-word statement posted Monday is exactly what you’d expect from a Cal-Berkeley professor: a ton of gobbledy gook about causing “harm” and “affiliated Indigenous peoples” and “subverting the sovereignty of the Nations I was identifying with” and “access to spaces” and “environmental justice” and something called “food justice”… Yes, Elizabeth the Fake Indian … Continue reading Berkeley Professor Admits She ‘Incorrectly’ Identified as American Indian

Breitbart Business Digest: We Haven’t Had a Year This Bad Since Obama Was President

JOHN CARNEY – 12 Sep 2023 – Breitbart.com Things Have Not Been This Bad Since Biden Was Obama’s Vice President The last time Americans saw a drop in household income as large as we did last year, Barack Obama was president.

The last time household income suffered a … Continue reading Breitbart Business Digest: We Haven’t Had a Year This Bad Since Obama Was President

Automakers, threatened by possible shortages of lithium for EV batteries, are racing to lock in supplies By Bradford Betz FOXBusiness – Sept 10, 2023 – fox My cmnt: So let me get this straight: It’s OK to create this huge environmental blight on mother earth since it’s for a Lib-Left cause but we can’t put through the Keystone pipeline because of its alleged environmental impact? This forced battery production to placate Lib-Left nuts like Biden is just insane. The Libs will destroy the environment and the planet in their Quixotic quest to supposedly save it.

Man forced to ditch Ford EV truck during family road trip to Chicago: ‘biggest scam of modern times’

Bala said he was initially motivated to buy an environmentally friendly vehicle as owning one is ‘responsible citizenship’ By Bradford Betz FOXBusiness – Aug 11, 2023 – fox My cmnt: Of course EVs are a scam.

Erwin Charles Simants, October 18, 1979. LJS archives My cmnt: Here we have Liberal nonsense perpetuated for 44 years! We, the taxpayers, have housed, fed, watered and supervised this murderer for 44 years at a cost of approximately $50,000 a year (that comes to roughly $2 million dollars). This democrat-created fiction allows that someone who commits a heinous crime almost by definition must be insane. And these so-called authorities and experts can then tell when the criminal has been “cured” and then can be let loose upon the society once again. Anyone who can plan a murder is NOT insane, … Continue reading Erwin Charles Simants, who killed six Nebraskans in 1975, dies after 44 years in Lincoln Regional Center

15 Shirley Temple facts you should know in honor of the late child star

By Stephanie Nolasco | Fox News – Feb 10, 2019 – Fox My cmnt: The “Baby Burlesque” mentioned below, and much of the porn that Hollywood produced in the 1920s and 1930s, is no innocent thing. You can see these actual films on YouTube by clicking the links below or search for them on Google. The sexual exploitation of young girls (and boys) by democrats has been going on long before the recent trans sexual movement to permanently, chemically or surgically destroy a young person’s genitals came into focus. Hollywood became dimmer on Feb. 10, 2014 when Shirley Temple, the dimpled, curly-haired child … Continue reading 15 Shirley Temple facts you should know in honor of the late child star

Kansas officials are conducting controlled burning to counter the dry summer grasses from becoming a dangerous … Continue reading Canadian Wild Fires – like Maui a result of Liberal mismanagement rather than Climate Change

Plus it’s hillarious. While democrats celebrated what they consider to a be a victory over MAGA, conservatives recognize the timeless iconic quality of former President Donald Trump’s mugshot as the result of refusing to back down against the deep state.

Well, now the dems have done it. Biden is actually worse than Carter and Obama combined! With the democrat election of Fetterman, totally incapacitated by a stroke, to the Senate and Biden, born stupid but now also senile, to the presidency the democrats have demonstrated that their political machine has commanded total obedience and lockstep voting from its elected officials, so much so that it can run the same with or … Continue reading Slacker-in-chief Biden keeps up record 40% ‘vacation’ pace despite disasters

Maui Wildfires: Barricade Blocked Only Paved Road out of Lahaina

My cmnt: It was not so-called global warming but rather decades of democrat-controlled cities and states suffering under their ineptitude and mismanagement. This tragic fire rests completely upon the shoulders of democrat government officials whose pursuit of climate change and green initiatives over forest and grassland management through controlled burnings, fire barriers and the removal of dead undergrowth could prevent these natural disasters from getting horribly out of hand. My cmnt: We in the lower 50 states, especially the high plains and midwest, have suffered all summer from Canada’s inability to manage their forests and grasslands (which they admit they … Continue reading Maui Wildfires: Barricade Blocked Only Paved Road out of Lahaina
