77% support requiring photo ID for voting
“…A new Fox News poll, released Monday, finds 77 percent of voters nationally think “a valid form of state or federally issued photo identification to prove U.S. citizenship” should be needed for voting. That’s down from a high of 85 percent who felt that way when Fox first asked the same survey question 10 years ago. The 8-point decline comes from a shift among Democrats and independents. In 2011, 75 percent of Democrats and 86 percent of independents favored showing government-issued ID for voting. Today, 60 percent of Democrats and 76 percent of independents support the prerequisite. Virtually all Republicans favor providing identification and their views held steady: 95 percent today vs. 96 percent in 2011…”
In between jetting from country to country to save Earth from the flames of global warming, Kerry spills secrets to American and Israeli enemies.
Should Kerry resign and/or face charges over “aid and comfort” to Iran?
“…After the explosive news broke yesterday about John Kerry allegedly ratting out Israel to Iran (which the New York Times tried to bury 21 paragraphs into a 23 paragraph article), questions began bubbling to the surface in terms of just how bad and potentially criminal these alleged actions were. For the record, Kerry is now denying that it happened, so we’ll stick with “alleged” at least for now. We’re not technically “at war” with Iran, though that possibility always seems to be only a few steps down a very rocky road. But at the same time, it’s been proven beyond any doubt that Iran’s roaming militias have attacked American military installations, killed any number of our troops and kidnapped our citizens. They certainly qualify as an “enemy” as opposed to simply being an adversary. So what, if anything, is to be done about this, assuming it turns out to be true? Mike Pompeo has proposed that a thorough investigation be launched, which seems like a reasonable and prudent first step…”
BLM leaders focus on the important stuff – personal comfort
BLM Co-Founder’s Jail Reform Group Dropped $26,000 At Luxury Malibu Beach Resort
-
- A Los Angeles-based jail reform group led by BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors dropped nearly $26,000 for “meetings” at a luxury Malibu beach resort in 2019, campaign finance records show.
- The payments were made on behalf of Reform LA Jails by a consulting firm owned by the co-author of Cullors’ 2018 biography, Asha Bandele, campaign finance records show.
- Cullors, a self-proclaimed “trained Marxist,” raked in upwards of $20,000 a month serving as chairwoman of Reform LA Jails in 2019, the Daily Caller News Foundation previously reported.

San Francisco’s hotels-for-homeless program does nothing to address the real problem: addiction
San Francisco’s Substance-Abuse Crisis
Erica Sandberg:
“…The most important walk you can take in San Francisco is not to the grand Golden Gate bridge, down crooked Lombard Street, or to the brightly painted Victorians in Alamo Square. It’s to the city’s large and gritty sixth district, which contains the Tenderloin, Civic Center, and South of Market neighborhoods. What you’ll find there will shatter any preconceived notions about homelessness you might have heard from activists, city departments, and elected officials. You’ll realize that San Francisco doesn’t have a homeless problem—it has a substance-abuse crisis. And Project Roomkey, California governor Gavin Newsom’s hotels-for-homeless plan that he’s touting as a model for the rest of the country, won’t help any more than a band-aid will cure a cancer patient.
Block after block, you’ll see thousands of people who are barely alive. Some are alone; others are piled on top of one another, running into traffic, or standing slumped over, unconscious. They’ll be injecting or smoking heroin, fentanyl, and methamphetamine in front of you, unaware or unfazed by your presence. Scabs cover their faces and bodies, limbs are swollen red and blue, often bloody and oozing pus. You’ll notice the garbage, rotting food, discarded drug detritus, and feces surrounding them. A shocking number are mere teenagers, but many are old or have aged well before their time.
Your immediate reaction will probably be grief and horror. How can we treat our fellow human beings so cruelly, and how did we, as a society, allow things to get this bad? If we can’t admit these individuals into hospitals today, we should at least erect mobile hospitals to deliver critical medical, psychiatric, and addiction treatment before it’s too late.
Yet Newsom has declared that with programs like Project Roomkey, the United States can solve homelessness. To see the results of the program is to know what a bizarre claim this is. While a small portion of the unhoused are healthy enough to shift into and benefit from such housing, the vast majority are not—and their troubles won’t be alleviated by a hotel room…”
Good intentions are not enough. Good results from policy choices should be the standard. It is not. It often seems it is more important to appear to be doing good than actually doing good.
I am inclined to think that this is an Israeli intelligence operation. I’m not saying it isn’t true.
Iran’s foreign minister says John Kerry told him about Israeli covert operations in Syria
“…Kerry has previously been accused of colluding with Iranian leaders to undermine the Trump administration…”
Kerry is such a buffoon that this story is believable whether true or not. And that is the point of the release of the recording. It discredits this bumble-headed jerk. I see this as an Israeli follow up operation to the recent destruction of Iran’s new nuclear facility. In that attack, Israel humiliated the Biden Administration that was in the process of negotiating with Iran for the U.S. to reenter the JCPOA. This is another international humiliation for the Biden Administration as they attempt to surrender to the terrorist regime of Iran.

Oscars 2021 tortured viewers for more than 3 unbearable hours
“…If you opened the window and listened closely Sunday night, you could hear it: the sound of millions of remote controls changing the channel during the 2021 Oscars.
And after last night’s debacle — the worst Academy Awards of my lifetime — they may never return.
Producer Steven Soderbergh, the man who directed “Traffic” and “Erin Brockovich,” among many other fine films, helmed the broadcast and was determined to make it more intimate and cinematic than usual. All right, as a movie critic, I’ll play ball.
“Steven Soderbergh’s The Oscars” gets 1 star. The night was nearly non-stop drudgery, zero humor and a format that tried even the most resolute of attention spans…”

“…Just as we at OutKick predicted, the 93rd Academy Awards ceremony tanked to unimaginable lows. The 2021 Oscars fell more than 50% year-over-year in overnight ratings, OutKick has learned. Here’s a look at the past three years:
2021: 8.9/19
2020: 18.1/33
2019: 21.6/36
Last week, an Oscars producer who spoke on the condition of anonymity told the New York Times data found that “minute-by-minute post-show ratings analysis indicated that ‘vast swaths’ of people turned off their televisions when celebrities started to opine on politics.”…”

Golda Meir, fourth Prime Minister of Israel 1969 – 1974
Margaret Thatcher, Prime minister of the United Kingdom 1979 – 1990
Jeane Kirkpatrick, U. S. Ambassador to the United Nations 1981 – 1985
Kamala Harris is a disappointment. She does not have the stature, presence, maturity, and character that makes for a great leader. Harris does not belong in the lineup of great women above; she belongs on a school board in Oakland, California changing the names of schools to be more woke.
Biden’s border policy is a disaster. A magnet for terrorist freaks.
