Why are Wyoming taxpayers funding an R-rated drag show? | Blaze Media

Why are Wyoming taxpayers funding an R-rated drag show? | Blaze Media: 

The Wyoming Freedom Caucus on Wednesday raised alarms after discovering that the Wyoming Department of Health, which has been controlled by Republicans for years, is funding a bingo-themed drag show in Laramie. The event, billed as “R-rated and not for children,” has received $3,000 from the health department from an account designed to combat the spread of AIDS.

“Complete with salty language, dirty jokes and booze-a-plenty, parental discretion is strongly advised!” warns the organizers of the April 27 event featuring male cowboys in stilettos. Because the way to stop the spread of AIDS is by having more pro-sodomy events and drag shows, much as Republican Gov. Mark Gordon’s mask mandate was effective in stopping the spread of COVID.

It’s easy to imagine a blue state funding such an event. But the reddest of red states?

Putin/Biden weaponized "justice".

 

Elites Love The 'Deep State' Because They Loathe The People

Left-wing elites want to protect the ‘deep state’ because it shields them from accountability as they pursue their own agendas. - BY: MARCO RUBIO

"...It comes as no surprise that America’s self-proclaimed “newspaper of record” (NYT) is leading the charge to defend the “deep state.” 

After all, this is the paper that published an anonymous op-ed in 2018 — two months before the midterm elections — from “a senior [Trump] official” claiming to be “quiet resistance within the administration.”

• That, my friends, is the very definition of the “deep state”: a government employee going beyond the bounds of his job description and the Constitution to undermine a democratically elected president...

When bureaucrats subvert democratically elected officials, they’re really subverting the people who voted those officials into office — people like you.

• Weaponizing the Government Against the People...

One tiny speck if freedom!

 

'Bidenbucks' Make 'Zuckbucks' Look Like Chump Change

Election integrity watchdogs say private funds in elections pale in comparison to what Biden has wrought through the power of his pen. -  M.D. KITTLE

• Think “Zuckbucks” are bad? The leftists who crafted “Bidenbucks” say, “Hold my beer.”

"...Zuckbucks — the nickname for the $400 million-plus that Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, dumped into the 2020 elections — predominately flowed to Democrat-centric cities in battleground states such as Wisconsin. 

Contracts devised by the Chicago-based Center for Tech and Civic Life, which has deep ties to the Democrat Party, and signed by city mayors required that election officials work with Democrat activists under the auspices of making voting “safe” during Covid.
Emails show activists, including a longtime Democrat operative, embedded in local election offices, offering to “correct” ballots and engaging in other suspicious conduct...
As wealthy as Zuckerberg is, his grant initiative was chump change compared to the resources of a politically weaponized federal government.

• On Aug. 9, 2021, just five months after Biden signed the executive order that would command the federal government to serve as a get-out-the-vote arm of the Democrat Party...

Not surprisingly, Biden’s USDA did just that...

"... Those who are arrested will receive bail money and legal support from a left-wing dark money behemoth funded by George Soros, an online fundraising page shows.

• The protests, which took place in dozens of U.S. cities including San Francisco, Chicago, New York City, and Philadelphia, were organized by A15 Action, a newly formed group that worked to "coordinate a multi-city economic blockade on April 15 in solidarity with Palestine." 
• The group's website directs users to a "bail and legal defense fund" hosted through ActBlue, the Democratic Party's online fundraising juggernaut...

How states are punching back on Biden's federal election takeover | WND | by Around the Web: 

“There is something surreptitious about the Biden administration and the lack of transparency that reveals what is going on here,” Warner said. “The federal government is not supposed to be doing this. We need states to stand firm on this.”

Federal plans largely have been shrouded in secrecy since Biden signed Executive Order 14019 in March 2021, directing federal agencies to work with nonprofit groups to boost voting.

Giuliani: Reagan Would Have Hit Iran Before the First Missile Got to Israel: 

“I really do think we’re missing an opportunity, a historic opportunity here — if we had a president like my old boss in the White House,” he said. “Every time [when] I was mayor and I had to make a difficult decision, I would say, ‘What would Ronald Reagan do?’ I know what Ronald Reagan would do right now. He would have hit Iran before their first missile got to Israel. And he would have taken out every nuclear facility he could. He would have been trying to look for an opportunity to do that for years.”

The 42 Questions Potential Jurors in Trump’s New York Trial

...more than half the prospective jurors from the first pool of 96 to be selected — out of the 200 total called on Monday — had been excused after telling the court they were unable to be fair and impartial - Spencer Brown 

"...At the conclusion of the first round of the process, more than half the prospective jurors from the first pool of 96 to be selected — out of the 200 total called on Monday — had been excused after telling the court they were unable to be fair and impartial in weighing the evidence set to be presented at trial...
The first few questions posed to potential members of the jury are biographical and relatively generic:

• ..."Do you participate in any organizations or advocacy groups?"...
• The next portion seeks to elicit more information about how and from where a juror gathers information and news. 
• "Which of the following print publications, cable and/or network programs, or online media such as websites, blogs, or social media platforms do you visit, read or watch?" the questionnaire probes. Among the options for potential jurors are the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, New York Post, Huffington Post, CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, Newsmax, Truth Social, Facebook, X, and Tik Tok (sic).
• Potential jurors are also asked open-ended questions about which podcasts they watch or listen to and what, if any, talk radio programs they consume...

With Strategic Petroleum Reserve at Historic Lows, Biden Cancels Replenishment Order:

Incidentally, Biden’s predecessor recognized the importance of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and tried to replenish it, according to the National Review.

“When former president Donald Trump attempted to fill the SPR to the brim when oil prices were at a rock-bottom price of $24 a barrel, congressional Democrats blocked the purchase, claiming it would be an oil-industry bailout,” the outlet reported.

Oil is an essential part of everyday life, whether green energy advocates want to admit it or not.

Bombshell trans report shows ideologues railroad kids into irreversible treatments with no evidence

The Cass Review, published this week, has sent gender extremists into a tailspin. - Mary Harrington

"Britain’s taxpayer-funded National Health Service in 2020 commissioned consultant pediatrician Dr. Hilary Cass to examine the care given gender-questioning children.
After a three-year investigation, her report is a bombshell...

And it challenges the now-widespread belief that a kid’s stated gender identity can’t be questioned, only “affirmed.”
More shocking still, Cass revealed her own efforts to build a better evidence base were 

• “thwarted” by British adult gender services,
•  which colluded to withhold data during the research period.

Let that sink in.
In the United Kingdom, health care is socialized...
