School Board Meeting Erupts in Violence

You can always go to the school board meeting if the wrestling’s sold out.

All those school board meetings I had to cover as a reporter, and nothing like this ever happened…

During a public meeting of the Flint, Michigan, Board of Education–a finance committee meeting at the administration building–the board president attacked the treasurer, grabbing her hair and slamming her head on the table (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/03/blood-bruises-flint-school-board-president-fired-choking-punching-treasurer-gets-control-150-million-covid-aid/). Killer Kowalski could’ve hardly done it better.

The board held a special meeting that night to expel the president. The incident was “not one of my highlights,” she admitted.

Why did the president attack the treasurer? The issue seems to be $150 million in state and federal “COVID aid,” and who on the board gets to control the money. Well, it’s a lot of money: I guess it stirred some passions.

But how does the Flint school district rate $150 million in aid? It’s only one of thousands of school districts. Are they all getting this kind of money?

As our government goes about plundering the public, thieves will occasionally fight over the division of the spoils. It sounds like that’s what happened here.

German Cops Will Smash Anyone Who ‘Hates’ Politicians

Achtung! Germany is still part of the Free World! And anyone who says different will be shot!

Well, okay–not shot. Just raided by the Polizei and packed off to jail (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/03/germany-conducts-mass-raids-online-insults-elected-officials/). Can you say “Thank God for the Second Amendment”?

In Germany it’s now against the law to “insult” politicians online; they call it “criminal content.” You’ll also get your door bashed in for “questioning” the results of Germany’s 2021 elections. (That slopping noise you hear in the background is American Democrats licking their lips in envy.) So wise up, everybody–no more “hate postings aimed specifically at politicians.”

One wonders if they’ve really changed so much since 1939.

I guess if I were in Deutschland now, I’d be in a heap o’ trouble for calling Whatsisname “SloJo.” Ooh! And all those nasty things I’ve said about other wastes of space who prey on us and call it government.

Just kidding, boss! You ol’ schweinhundt, you!

New, Improved! World Order

And here’s SloJo, babbling about a “New World Order…”

Dude! We already have a New World Order–remember? The one with George Bush and Obama and Klaus Schwab and that little pipsqueak over in France… Oh! And Justin Trudeau, too. I mean, we have a New World Order, so what you’re talkin’ about would be a New New World Order.

Later, in a secret speech delivered to phantom voters, SloJo said “The New New World Order, which we’ve got to lead, will be founded on voter fraud, taxation, private jets for high officials but only rickety old buses full of chicken-poop for the masses, a news media that never, ever, tells the truth, massive corruption like you wouldn’t believe was even possible, and total government control over everybody’s lives, with technicians from Red China to manage it.” He paused to grin vaguely at a spot on the ceiling. “It’s gonna be great!” he added. “President Harris will give you more details.”

 

Are We Sure About This War?

Fighting escalates in eastern Ukraine | Financial Times

Russia has invaded Ukraine, the violence of this war is incalculable–and our whole government is cheering for Ukraine. But what if the Ukrainians aren’t the good guys? What if there are no good guys in this war?

Up until recently, and over a span of years, did we ever hear anything about Ukraine that wasn’t tied into some scandal or other? What about all those multi-million-dollar deals with Hunter Biden, complete with a `10 percent cut for “the Big Guy” who is now, allegedly, our president?

Sure, Vladimir Putin and the Russkies are the bad guys. But does that automatically make Ukraine the good guy? I find myself unable to come to that conclusion.

Meanwhile, as it preaches the sanctity of Ukraine’s national borders, our government refuses to enforce our own country’s southern border. What does that say about our priorities? Shouldn’t we be repairing our own ruptured border?

The American people don’t want to blunder into war in Europe. Can we trust our leaders not to do that?

I wish I knew.

First Man in Space: Cancelled

Who Was The First Astronaut? Yuri Gagarin Facts and Biography.

It never happened!

One of the most memorable events of my boyhood was when Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first man to orbit the earth in outer space, in 1961. The first man in space! Once it was only science fiction. Now it was news. An epochal event in world history.

But let’s rewrite history! Let’s condemn ourselves to ignorance! Because we’re mad at Putin for invading Ukraine, therefor Yuri Gagarin’s space flight… never happened!

An international Space Symposium conference, held at Colorado Springs, has canceled its annual “Yuri’s Night” and erased his name from their deliberations (https://www.rebelnews.com/yuri_gagarin_name_censored_from_space_symposium_conference).

That’ll learn that Putin guy!

Yuri died in 1968, in a plane crash.

Have we been reduced to lying about our history? Are we going to rewrite the history books every time there’s a new flap in international relations? Well, here in America we’re tearing down our statues. Of course we’re going to scrub Yuri Gagarin every time we’re mad at Russia.

Has lying become this fallen world’s preferred means of communication?

Yuri did something that no human being had ever done before. It took courage. It took dedication. It took guts.

But it takes no courage at all to pretend he didn’t do it.

“THIS” Is How We Run Our Country???

White House briefs 'TikTok stars' on Ukraine | The Post Millennial

Get your foreign policy dope straight from the horse’s [censored]!

So… there’s a big problem with Russia invading Ukraine, we’re not quite sure what to do with the rest of the Pandemic, and The Regime’s popularity is so far underwater, Jacques Cousteau couldn’t find ’em. What to do, what to do?

Aha! Simple! Just invite 30 TikTok “influencers” for a briefing at the White House, fill their empty skulls with the party line, and pay ’em a thousand smackers each to use their social media presence in the service of the worst president we ever even imagined (https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/03/11/tik-tok-ukraine-white-house/).

No matter how confused, feckless, incompetent, or dangerous its policies prove to be, The Regime now knows that TikTok’s got their backs. And as an added benefit, TikTok is owned and operated by a known, paid-for tool of the Chinese Communist Party! Does this bunch at the White House ever get into a bed that doesn’t already have a commie in it?

We’re also going to rely on some outfit called Gen Z For Change (does that stink to high heaven, or what?) to sell The Regime’s policies to ignorant young college types. What’s the average age of a TikTok influencer? Nineteen? Twenty?

Says a greybeard of 21, “People in my generation get all our information from TikTok!”

I rest my case.

Are They Doing It On Purpose?

Photos of Joe Biden Eating Ice Cream

Look around you, look at the nooze. It’s very hard to believe such things are done through mere incompetence. Cutting off the Keystone Pipeline, to cite just one of a multitude of examples, was an act of pure insanity.

More and more I’m coming to believe that the state of our country and the world is due to purposeful actions by our global ruling class. They’re doing it on purpose.

Why? I think because they wish to present a “narrative”–euphemism for “lie”–that nation-states are no longer capable of maintaining civilization and we need to scrap them all and set up a global government, owned and operated by the world’s elites. They will argue that current events prove we’re incapable of governing ourselves and we need them to manage The Planet. For our own good.

I don’t like conspiracy theories; but these things are done before our very eyes–how can we not see it? How else can we explain the Biden presidency?

Those of us who still pray had better pray much harder.

The exploder – Nicki Edwards

Did I just hear something go “Kablawi”?

I give you my word that I didn’t make this up.

An imam in Florida named Fadi Kablawi–oh, sheesh! sounds like a cartoon character–says he wonders why Allah hasn’t destroyed the United States, women are to blame for rape, Christianity is fake, and Jews are “the lowest of the low” (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4046641/posts).

Kablawi was born in Jordan and grew up here, where he was a dentist until 2017, when he was busted for committing Medicaid fraud against elderly patients. Other than that, he’s had a pretty nice time in our country that he hates so much.

Pow! Kaboom! Kablawi!

Can I please wake up now?

They’ve Stolen an Hour

Here we go again, spending the rest of the year chasing the hour they stole from us today–and never catching it.

Is there any reason at all why we still do Daylight Savings Time? They steal our freedom, they steal the fruits of our labor–do they have to steal our time, too?

Now we’re all an hour late before we start.

Oops! India ‘Accidentally’ Fires Missile into Pakistan

The Top 15 Onscreen Terminator Robots, Ranked in Order

What’s next–the Terminator?

So you want a computer chip implanted in your brain so you can do smart things, do you?

Well, India has “accidentally” fired an unarmed missile into Pakistan, owing to a “technical malfunction” (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4045853/posts). It must’ve been a really smart bomb: it didn’t hit anything and didn’t kill anybody. India calls the incident “deeply regrettable” and has set up a court of inquiry to find out exactly what went wrong.

India and Pakistan have been to war several times, and this could have, with any bad luck, started another one. Just what the world needs, just now. Because some techie hit the wrong button on his keyboard… or a computer briefly went haywire.

Gives you a lot of confidence in modern defense systems, doesn’t it.
