Hollywood Mocking Family And Parenthood Again

-
The Hollywood crowd has set the pace for mocking traditional family values as was highlighted by the Murphy Brown/Dan Quayle TV thing.
Currently DeNiro and Pacino are further diminishing family tradition and respect for women by bragging about impregnating younger women at their advanced age.
Unlike most children ‘born out of wedlock’ (talk about a lost term) these children will have lots of money without what ‘Fathers Day’ represents.
Fawning over these events says something about our media and our society.
Talk about setting a terrible example for our younger generation!
Reflection: Wasn’t there something about Moral Decay and Rome?
Where are the NOW-girls and the feminists?
Where are the stewards of family and society?

The 83-year-old actor Pacino and his girlfriend Noor Alfallah, 29, are expecting their first baby together, Pacino’s rep recently confirmed to PEOPLE.
The actor shares daughter Julie Marie, 33 with his ex-girlfriend, acting coach Jan Tarrant. He also shares 22-year-old twins Anton and Olivia with ex Beverly D'Angelo, whom he dated from 1997 to 2003.

Forest Fires Are Result Of Nature And Man But Wild-Fires Then Result From Wrong-Headed Forest Management.
Smoke from Eastern Canada’s current forest fire has drifted down to NYC.
The Gore disciples tell us it’s all about global warming. Really?
-
Example: Not articulated are the massive record Eastern Canada fires that occurred well before so called man-made global warming.
The Miramichi Fire, 1825, Eastern Canada, New Brunswick. Was one of the worst forest fires in North American history. More than 3 million acres (6,000-sq-mi) had burned and at least 160 people killed. It ranks among the three largest forest fires ever recorded in North America all before the increased CO2 levels.
1825 Miramichi fire - Wikipedia
-
-
Also not articulated are the malfeasant forest management procedures that have stopped controlled-burns and stopped the establishment and maintenance of access roads and adequate fire-breaks.
The result of ‘forever wild’ is forest fires and blight and disease.
Reality: Mother Nature starts forest fires, she doesn’t stop them.
-
Professional Forest Managers know what is required but so-called misguided-environmentalists have their way and then redirect accountability for their malfeasant policies when devastation results.

An Oklahoma resident and mother is suing her local school district after her 15-year-old daughter was allegedly "severely beaten" by a 17-year-old transgender student in the girl’s bathroom.
The attack, according to the lawsuit filed May 25, occurred at Edmond Memorial High School on Oct. 26, 2022.
The parent is seeking $75,000 in damages for "severe physical and mental injuries, severe physical and mental pain and suffering, and severe emotional distress" that she claims her child suffered at school.
The lawsuit also alleges that the transgender student had "made previous threats of violence" against the victim at school and was searched for weapons by police after his threats against the victim were reported "by another student."

Why did it require an act by The SCOTUS to make clear that wrongdoing by a union or its members is Not OK and the aggrieved party can sue for damages?

Why haven’t parents and school districts sued the Teachers Unions for deleting two+years of US children’s education?
Clearly there are major measurable damages some of which are permanent!

The Teacher's Unions are filthy rich.
The money recovered should be used for remedial and tutoring education for the aggrieved students, preferably in private schools.

Republicans Doing OK From The Political-Bleachers

-
Considering that Congressional Republicans are playing the DC governing game from the bleachers, they did reasonably well in the Debt Ceiling Game.
The reality is that many of the Republicans that voted against the budget are not being Realist.
In spite of the major 2022 Republican losses by numerous Trump-Type candidates, we were able to squeak-out a close win in the House.
Going forward, let’s not do nationally what we’ve done in Virginia from 2009-McDonnald to 2021-Youngkin.
Let’s come together to win with Republicans who can win at the State and National levels.
Using draconian litmus tests to sink fine GOP Candidates is a recipe for failure. 
It enables 
Democrats like Biden, Kaine and Warner to turn Virginia further into another California and the US into a socialist swamp.

WSJ:  A Republican Reality Check on McCarthy’s Debt-Ceiling Deal
A Republican Reality Check on McCarthy’s Debt-Ceiling Deal - WSJ
-
Some conservatives are grousing that the debt-ceiling bill negotiated by Speaker Kevin McCarthy has left President Biden’s legislation of the last two years largely intact. That’s undeniable, but we also wonder what political planet these folks are occupying.
All of that is true, and they have every right to gripe about it. But what did they expect? House Republicans hold a four-vote majority, the smallest in decades. Democrats still control the Senate and the White House.
In no plausible political universe could Republicans expect to roll back the legislation that Democrats passed with control of both sides of Pennsylvania Ave. in the last Congress.
-
The dumbest argument is North Carolina Rep. Dan Bishop’s that the deal is cause for deposing Mr. McCarthy, as if the Speaker is the obstacle to more conservative victories. Mr. Biden and the Democratic Senate are the obstacles. If Republicans wanted more victories on legislation this year, they should have won more election victories in the House and Senate last year.

Disney blasted for allowing male employee to wear dress, makeup (nypost.com)
Conservative critics are once again slamming Disney for shoving “woke” agendas down the throats of children — this time by allowing an apparently male employee to wear a costume dress and makeup.
A viral video — which has racked up nearly 7 million views on TikTok — shows the mustachioed “Fairy Godmother’s Apprentice” welcoming a young girl at Disneyland’s Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique in Anaheim, California.
“So, my name is Nick, I am one of the Fairy Godmother’s Apprentices,” said the employee, who’s seen wearing blue and purple eyeshadow to match their uniform dress.
“I’m here to shop you around and make all your selections for the day.”

Dodgers Playing Social Influencer And Lose

Bud Light, Target, Kohl haven't the Dodgers learned anything?

Bud Light, Target, haven't the Dodgers learned anything? As a sports team owner, I know better | Fox News
One of the most-storied sports brands in history is reeling. It’s the result of management’s foolish decision to invite an anti-Catholic hate group to an LGBT Pride night, then rescind the invitation after criticism from the right, only to re-invite the group after blowback from the left.
The flip-flopping wasn’t the Dodger’s biggest mistake. The real issue is that the baseball team waded into politics in the first place.

House Passes Debt Limit Bill -- Now What?

-
House narrowly passes GOP debt limit bill, putting Biden on defense for refusal to negotiate
House narrowly passes GOP debt limit bill, putting Biden on defense for refusal to negotiate - Washington Times
House Republicans narrowly passed legislation raising the debt limit on Wednesday. The move is gambit to force President Biden to begin negotiations in earnest on cutting spending in exchange for lifting the cap on how much the government can borrow to meet expenses.
-
In the 217-to-215 vote, nearly every House Republican voted to raise the debt limit by $1.5 trillion until May 2024 while slashing spending by $4.8 trillion. Speaker Kevin McCarthy can only lose four votes on any single House bill before having to rely on Democrats.
-
Overall, four Republicans joined nearly every single Democrat in voting against the bill. Two Democrats and one Republican did not vote.
-
The bill cuts federal spending by $130 billion for the upcoming fiscal year and limits budget growth to 1% annually over the next decade. It also would rescind at least $90.5 billion in unspent pandemic relief, cancel Mr. Biden’s student loan forgiveness program, and scrap green energy tax credits that Democrats passed last year.

“We have nine individuals charged with crimes related to the attack on the Marines,” San Clemente Mayor Chris Duncan said. “All nine are juveniles. All nine are San Clemente residents, as I understand it.”
Authorities said four boys and one girl were charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon, were taken into custody and are presently at juvenile hall.
-
-
It’s doubtful that those caught will receive punishment consistent with their crimes – after all – it’s in California ---- lucky if D.Gov Newsome and his Democrat minions don’t give these felons a reward and charge the marines with war crimes.

CUNY Indicative Of Academic Decay

-
A very sad part of ‘growing old’ is awareness of the intellectual and moral deterioration of the Universities we attended as well expressed by my friends that attended my Rutgers and VT, UVa, UVM and a score of others. Many were ROTC schools that proudly graduated US Armed Forces officers, some of whom we just reflected upon on Memorial Day.
Now these institutions are loaded with anti-American faculty fawning on their likeminded young minions and fellow travelers who embrace Marx and Lenin instead of Washington and Lincoln.

Jewish groups, allies demand CUNY Law lose funding after student's 'vile' anti-Israel commencement speech
The graduation speech was condemned as 'vitriolic, evil, antisemitic' propaganda
Pro-Israel groups and Jewish allies are calling for the City University of New York's (CUNY) public law school to lose its funding after a graduating student accused Israel of "indiscriminately raining bullets and bombs" on Palestinians during her commencement speech. She also claimed laws are "white supremacy" and attacked the "fascist" NYPD and U.S. military.
-
-
Observations about CUNY by a NY Jewish physician-friend:
-
When my dad graduated high school, CUNY, then called CCNY was a hugely sought after college by NYC Jews. The Ivies had quotas and were costly. They could live at home and commute. Admission standards were very selective back then and, consequently, the students were extremely bright and motivated, excelling in science, government and the arts.
-
Alumni include Bernard Baruch, Colin Powell, Felix Frankfurter, Henry Kissinger, Mario Puzo, Alfred Stiegltz, Upton Sinclair, Tony Curtis, Henry Miller, Abe Beame, D Patrick Moynahan, Eli Wallach, Jonas Salk, and many more.
-
A number of years ago they did away with any admission requirements in the name of equity.

The unexpected carveout green-lighting the billion-dollar MVP Mountain Valley Pipeline — which is 94% complete, but has been mired in a lengthy permitting process for years — was immediately cheered by West Virginia lawmakers who have touted the project's expected economic benefits for years. The pipeline is projected to create 2,500 construction jobs, $40 million in new tax revenue for West Virginia, $10 million in new tax revenue for Virginia and up to $250 million in royalties for West Virginia landowners (upon which the fracking-gas is located).

Sojourner Truth A Famed Slave From The Catskills

African American abolitionist and women's rights advocate, born into slavery in 1797, spoke in Akron, Ohio
On this day in history, May 29, 1851, Sojourner Truth delivers famed 'Ain’t I a Woman' speech | Fox News
-
-
Sojourner Truth was a northern-born slave in Old Hurley NY just outside of Kingston on the Hudson about 100-miles from NYC.
In 1827, after her master did not honor his promise to free her or to uphold the New York Anti-Slavery Law of 1827, she fled.
She reportedly told her master, per the same site, "I did not run away, I walked away by daylight."
She became a noted abolitionist doing extensive traveling and speaking on behalf of abolishing slavery.
-
There is a significant monument to her in front of the Kinston Court House and the nearby New Paltz College has a library devoted to her life and work.
-
She is a reminder that slavery was a national blight not just a southern sin and NY’s anti-slavery law was just 33-years before the start of the War Between The States.

Was NY "The Capital of American Slavery" in the 18th Century?
http://roanokeslant.blogspot.com/2022/03/ny-capital-of-american-slavery-in-18th.html

Contrary to this CNN article: It’s not clear that NY was widely known as the capital of American slavery.
However, most residents of Ulster County NY and particularly the village of Old Hurley are well aware of Sojourner Truth and her (slave to freedom) history. Most New Yorker's are unaware of Truth and the extensive slavery in the state, resulting in a fair amount of hypocritical finger pointing toward others.
