NPR vs. Masculinity - American Thinker - By Alexander Riley
"...Well, have no fear, NPR is here to give you the lowdown on how to properly think of this topic in 2023 in a podcast from their series LifeKit, which magnanimously offers the benighted populace invaluable “tools to help you get it together.”
Here are just a few of the scintillating bits of wisdom dispensed by the (self-proclaimed) cultural experts at LifeKit:
- “Everyone’s [i.e., men are] afraid to be themselves.”...
“Masculinity is about men policing each other about how they’re failing at being real.”...- “Maybe somebody calls you out for ‘mansplaining’ in the office… try to check yourself… apologize and keep it movin’.” ...
- “We aren’t suggesting you take your kids out of football or stop watching UFC or playing Call of Duty, but it is important to acknowledge that… there is a culture of violence among men.”...

Hawley: Corporate Media Echoing TikTok's Lines, Let's Put a Ban to a Vote Now:
“[T]he CCP has access right now to any data they want that belongs to us. And that’s why I say, again, this is a back door for the Beijing government into our private lives, into our personal security, into the heads of our children, and we’ve got to close that door. The only thing to do, Laura, is to ban it. You mentioned the Biden administration, TikTok’s not stupid, they went out and hired a PR firm that was founded by Biden administration people.

America’s Greatest Enemies
America’s Greatest Enemies - Stephen Whitney"...Whatever one’s opinion on Trump’s bid for presidency, his words on this issue address something key for America’s future. In the video, he specifies what needs to be done:
But perhaps the most insightful of Trump’s comments in the video is this part:
“We must be absolutely clear that our objective is to immediately have a total cessation of hostilities. All shooting has to stop. This is the central issue. We need peace without delay. … There must also be a complete commitment to dismantling the entire … establishment that is perpetually dragging us into endless wars, pretending to be fight for freedom and democracy abroad while they turn us into third world country and a third world dictatorship right here at home.”So not only must the war stop—the power structure responsible for it and other wars must be dismantled...
But perhaps the most insightful of Trump’s comments in the video is this part:
“These forces are doing more damage to America than Russia and China could ever have dreamed. Evicting this sick and corrupt establishment is the monumental task of the next president.”Americans are used to being told that our nation’s existential threats primarily lie abroad.
Russia, Iran, China, Syria, and so on—our overlords benefit from us directing our focus toward these regimes, rather than toward our own.
Not only does this distract from our rulers’ corrupt dealings, it bolsters their legitimacy by allowing them to tell us that they are keeping us safe.
- Whatever their faults, it is not Russia or Iran that poses the greatest threat to the American people—it’s the globalist regime in Washington.
- We can’t blame Putin for the opioid epidemic, outsourcing American jobs, affirmative action, critical race theory, mass immigration, or the LGBT agenda.
But we can and should blame those in power here who, through either indifference or outright malice, have presided over the decline of America.

Sen. Ted Cruz introduces bill to prevent the Fed from establishing a central bank digital currency - TheBlaze
Sen. Ted Cruz introduces bill to prevent the Fed from establishing a central bank digital currency - TheBlaze:
The study indicated that a CBDC will make the process by which governments freeze someone's financial resources — as Canadian banks did in concert with the Trudeau government in its crackdown efforts on peaceful protesters in 2022 — easier and faster, having established "a direct line between citizens and the government itself."
Policymakers would also be able to set negative interest rates, thereby forcing spending by causing people to lose money.
In addition to a loss of transparency and the ability to force spending, the government would also be put in a position where it could prohibit people from buying certain goods (e.g., alcohol).
