We live in the age of stupid. Climate crisis believers scare their own children with tales of horror, then ask special prescient children what to do.

Climate like Woke is secular religion. It is for the weak minds of self-doubting liberals.

NBC news practices something, but it is not journalism. It is fake news. NBC thinks you are stupid.

The other nightly news broadcasts from ABC and CBS did better. This type of fake reporting is all too common. The media are so involved in activism that they slant the news to support a preferred narrative. There are numerous examples, this is the most recent. If this is where you get news and opinion, it is your own fault.

Fake news, fake media, fake politicians, fake causes.

The media dislike you. The media think you are stupid.

A brief summary of the Chauvin Trial that says everything you need to know about it.

Trial By Mob: Chauvin Jury Punts So They Can Leave.

Democrats and media turn George Floyd into a political hero. Remember this:

    • Floyd was a repeat felony offender with an extensive arrest record and time served
    • He was out on the town while under the influence of drugs attempting to pass counterfeit bills
    • His drug dealer friend was with him on the excursion
    • He was so intoxicated he had trouble communicating in the store where he attempted to spend bad bills
    • He was so intoxicated that his ex girlfriend had trouble waking him while he sat in the driver’s seat
    • He had drugs on his body at the time of his arrest. He attempted to dispose of the drugs in the back seat of a police car
    • He resisted arrest and fought with officers
    • He had 3 times the normal fatal dose of Fentanyl in his system at the time of his arrest
    • He had other drugs in his system including Meth
    • One month prior to his arrest he had been hospitalized for overdose of the same pills he left in the squad car

Mr. Floyd’s tragic life and death are not heroic. They are the opposite of heroic. There are many black Americans who are heroes. Floyd is not one of them.

Democrat governance – Pension bomb edition

Illinois’ Pension Bomb Has a Short Fuse

“…More than 1 in 10 Illinoisans – 1.1 million, or about 11.4% of the adult population – are members of an Illinois public pension system.

Those government retirment systems are sitting on mountains of debt. There’s $144 billion in debt just in the five statewide systems, by the state’s conservative estimate, or $261 billion by a more realistic, independent estimate. They average only 40% of the funds needed to pay out retiree benefits long-term.

If you add in local pension debt, Illinois’ unfunded pension liability totals more than $200 billion by the state’s measure, and that amount grows every year. Another shock such as the Great Recession could cause the first pension fund to run out of money by 2039, according to actuarial analysis.

That amounts to a broken promise not only to retirees who are banking on having their pensions to support them, but also to the taxpayers who continue getting hit with higher taxes just to keep things from tanking.

Illinois politicians have enhanced benefits without funding them and pushed off the financial reckoning for decades. As a result, pension costs, which took up just 4% of the state’s budget in the 1990s, have increased by more than 500% during the past 20 years, growing to consume more than 25% of budgets in recent years – rapidly approaching 30%.

What’s more, generous retirement perks have been promised, time and time again, than can’t securely be delivered without financial hardship to the rest of the state. With employee contributions and benefits both fixed by state law, shortfalls in investment returns must be made up by taxpayers…”

Independent journalist Glenn Greenwald exposes the lying media and Democrats on their fake Brian Sicknick story, it is a great read.

The Media Lied Repeatedly About Officer Brian Sicknick’s Death. And They Just Got Caught.

“…Just as with the Russia Bounty debacle, they will never acknowledge what they did. Their audience wants to be lied to for partisan gain and emotional pleasure…”

Judge in Chauvin trial “I’ll give you that Congresswoman Waters may have given you something on appeal”

Posted on

Officer Brian Sicknick was used by the lying media and Democrat party to smear Trump and his supporters. The story of his death, created and propagated by liberal media, was a lie from the start.

Fake news, fake media, fake politicians, fake Big Tech, fake woke corporations.

It is fake from top to bottom. If you believe their crap, it’s on you.
