Why Didn't the Founders Abolish Slavery? - Intellectual Takeout
Why Didn't the Founders Abolish Slavery? - Intellectual Takeout"Reparations for slavery have reemerged as a hotbed issue in the 2020 election, raising the question of why the Founding Fathers did not abolish slavery when starting their new country.
Many of the Founders – including George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Alexander Hamilton – opposed the practice.
Many of the Founders – including George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Alexander Hamilton – opposed the practice.
- They denounced slavery in the original draft of the Declaration of Independence and banned it in the Northwest Ordinance of 1787.
This raises the question: If they opposed slavery, then why did it persist in the U.S. until 1865?
- Here are four reasons taken from their own writings during the founding period:

Whoopi Goldberg goes full hypocrite: video mashup - TheBlaze:
BlazeTV's Dave Rubin shares a video mashup of “The View’s” Whoopi Goldberg exposing her hypocrisy as she has a major Roe v. Wade meltdown. As her principles on “my body, my choice” flip-flop depending on the politics involved, Whoopi reveals herself to just be another celebrity hypocrite.

"Two weeks ago, a NATO blockade of Kaliningrad, an outpost of Russia, was triggered when Lithuania blocked the transport of goods through Suwalki corridor.
According to the Lithuanian justification they were following through on NATO sanctions against Russian goods...
The EU has now dropped the blockade and the transport of goods between Kaliningrad and Russia will resume.
The EU decision was made before the NATO meeting in Madrid concluded; however, it looks like NATO postponed the announcement until after Biden left in order to save face on the reversal of position..."

"It’s fashionable now to look cynically upon the Founders of our country, to dismiss their efforts as just rich, white men trying to grab power from other rich, white men.
And while many of our educational and political leaders may push such a view, it’s ultimately simplistic and juvenile, likely driven by a cultural Marxist outlook of history as merely binary class warfare.
"It’s fashionable now to look cynically upon the Founders of our country, to dismiss their efforts as just rich, white men trying to grab power from other rich, white men.
- But is that all the Founders represent? Another round of class warfare? The oppressed vs. the oppressors?
Or is there more depth to human history and the Founders, more complexity than simple class warfare?
They were certainly not perfect men, some had slaves, some were less than virtuous in their private relations, yet the fruit of their efforts was incredible.

- The world had not seen anything like America before, and it likely will never see anything like it again.
- America is the country to which people the world over flock.
- It is still the country to which those who seek to defend freedom and justice look to for leadership.
- It has grown to be a powerhouse of free enterprise and prosperity.
As the old saying goes, a house is only as strong as its foundation.
While America is stumbling today and appears to be decaying, that does not change the fact that her foundation was strong.
In truth, rather than building upon that foundation, many today are trying to destroy it...Read all!

Democrats lose their minds after Supreme Court curbs EPA's ability to regulate carbon emissions to combat climate change - TheBlaze:
"SCOTUS' decision today rightfully reins in unreasonable and unlawful attempts to shut down American power plants and energy production," Sen. John Barasso (R-Wyo.) said. "For years Democrats have used overreaching @EPA regulations to side-step Congress and the American people to enact their extreme climate agenda.
"This decision confirms Congress, not the EPA, has the authority to create environmental policy.

How Did A Zuckerberg Charity Stooge Win A GOP Primary In Colorado?
...The really big news is that Pam Anderson supposedly won the race with 43% of the vote (266,000 citizens voted for her!) which is an unbelievable result — to say the very least.
It’s truly unbelievable because two months before the primary, Pam Anderson was not just losing to Tina Peters in all the polling and fundraising metrics, but her campaign was broke.
...You must remember that Tina Peters got 61% of the delegates at Colorado’s Republican Assembly in April.
- Pam Anderson won a race with no money and very few visible voters

- Pam Anderson did not even attend the Republican assembly.
- She was so unpopular in the Colorado GOP that she was a write-in candidate who only qualified in April.
- ...The only advantage that Pam Anderson had in this race: she’s on the Board of Directors for Mark Zuckerberg’s private election mafia, the “Center For Tech And Civic Life.”
...One more thing: Colorado uses Dominion Voting Machines..."

Megyn Kelly destroys Cassidy Hutchinson's 'bombshell' testimony - TheBlaze
Megyn Kelly destroys Cassidy Hutchinson's 'bombshell' testimony - TheBlaze:
"If this committee would just be honest about its mission, I might be more invested. I might be more interested. Instead, it cloaks itself in sanctimony, purporting to be a fair-minded, down-the-middle finder of fact just looking to get to the truth of January 6th. It's a lie, and they prove every time they get together that it's a lie," she added.
US FED is Quietly Handing Out $250 Million in Interest Payments PER DAY to Small Group of Nameless Beneficiaries
"With all of the money laundering schemes currently in the works – ‘stimulus’ money, billions in aid to Ukraine, executive orders for… solar panels, endless money for experimental vaccines, etc. – it seems as if the powers at be are literally ‘cashing out’ while they can as they burn the economy down in preparation for the great reset.
...From ZeroHedge:
“...Fed hopes to keep hiking at least another 175bps (or more) in the next 6 months, which will push the rate to 3.50% and will mean that the Fed will be paying half a billion in interest every single day to a handful of mostly unknown counterparties every day, money which for said counterparties is also known as (riskless) profit and which is only the result of the Fed’s previous money printing.”..."
The true democrat party!-----'Genderfluid' 'Puppy' Begins Work at Department of Energy
'Genderfluid' 'Puppy' Begins Work at Department of Energy"...Sam Brinton (“they/them”) tweeted happily on Wednesday: “It’s official. As of June 19th, I now serve my nation as the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the Office of Nuclear Energy in the Department of Energy.”
He attached a photo of himself that was apparently taken in his office; in it, a smirking, lipsticked Brinton, hands on hips, is wearing a belted sleeveless red jumpsuit (or something) with American flag-themed high heels and a chain necklace.
...In a 2016 article in Metro Weekly, he speaks at length about “puppy play” (he is identified only by his first name, but an accompanying photo makes it clear that Sam in the article is Brinton.
The new Deputy Assistant Secretary explains: “I actually have trouble when we transition from pup play to having sex. Like, ‘No, I can’t have you whimper like that when we’re having sex,’ because I don’t want to mix that world. It’s interesting, because he doesn’t have to come out of pup mode to have me f**k him. I personally have to bring him out of pup perception for me. But then I’m still treating him as a submissive to me.”...
