The Northman; how a film about white Europeans has upset the left-wing e...
"It seems almost beyond belief that a film which shows medieval Europe populated exclusively by white people with traditional gender roles could upset progressive types, but The Northman is being slated as appealing to the alt-right and being a dog whistle to white supremacists."

"Several days ago, ‘Never Trumper’ Adam Kinzinger delivered a self-absorbed, Hero Complex-laden farewell address that is embarrassing by any man’s standards.
- But Adam Kinzinger isn’t just any man. He’s slowly morphed from a veteran with an impressive military career to a weepy reply guy unable to shake the Trump cobwebs from his mind.
- Or, as Tucker Carlson might say, a “weepy man” suffering from “a full-blown case of male menopause.”

CDC Obesity Chart Balloons to Accommodate Gargantuan American Children"To accommodate the ever-expanding waistlines of American youth — the predictable product of processed GMO feed passed off as “food” and high levels of inactivity (66% of US children get at least 2 hours of screen time daily) — the CDC has been forced to expand the body-mass index (BMI) chart it uses to clinically assess the presence and severity of obesity.
- A normal BMI falls in the 18.5–24.9 range.
- The new metrics extend BMI measurements for kids to 60...

Ten major revelations exposing extent of government pressure on Big Tech to censor Americans | Just The News...“We've entered into this period of American history where the range of permissible thought and speech has so narrowed that if you depart from it at all you are, you're labeled, you are censored, and you are silenced,” retired Democrat Sen. Robert Torricelli told Just the News earlier this month.
"It's incredibly dangerous."
"And the odd thing about it is the very institutions which have been the safeguard of American free thought and speech — American universities, think tanks, the media — are the worst offenders," he added..."

"Sacred Heart parish has faithfully served Grand Rapids families for more than a century, and its school provides a rich academic and spiritual environment for hundreds of children. The government should respect their constitutionally protected freedom to follow the very faith that has motivated them to serve their community," Tucker stated.
According to the lawsuit, the school would shut down "rather than defy Catholic doctrine."

"...The EPA’s rule, which is more than 80% stricter than the previous regulation, will require large trucks, delivery vans and buses manufactured after 2027 to cut nitrogen dioxide emissions by nearly 50% by 2045, according to an agency press release.
- This is pure leftist insanity and will force underserved, overburdened communities to pay more for their food and consumer goods. These people are dangerous and insane.

- “academia is pretty much gone, and now the question is how do we protect society from academia, because it can’t be changed.

"...I think the systemic problems in some ways, at least at the higher ed level, are getting worse.
At Cornell, they now require DEI statements from all new hires, faculty hires, and all faculty promotions.
