In my email:
Getting me to visit NYFC is a tough sell at the best of times.
Right now, you couldn’t pay me to go there.

Explanation
Via Insty, I read this:
Stephen Collinson is well-known among conservatives as the most hackneyed of the hacks at CNN. The CNN Politics Twitter account promoted his latest online essay with the words “President Biden to showcase his moderate radicalism in his big congressional address.”
“Moderate radicalism”? Doesn’t that make about as much sense as “quiet loudness”?
Well, no. Basically, “moderate radicalism” is when radical ideas and positions (i.e. extreme leftwing, in this case) are talked about and explored, but there are no actions associated with the activity. Here’s an example:
“Racial equity is going to be our social goal and policy” — moderate radicalism. Then there’s this:
“Racial equity is going to be our social goal and policy, and anyone not supporting it will be sent to reeducation camps” — that’s pure (immoderate) radicalism.
Just don’t kid yourself that the latter is an impossibility in these here United States.
Never forget that socialists, of whatever variant, are utterly convinced of the rightness and purity of their ideas, and that opponents thereof are evil and should be suppressed, by force if necessary.

…and the A in Arquette stands for Asswipe.
Now onto the the (ahem) “hard” news…
…but that means they’ll just hate us up to 11 now !
…no doubt celebrating the news of America’s withdrawal, in their traditional manner.
…and in all those years, she never once thought of, say, leaving his freako ass and going home to Momma.
…not to be unkind, but the only way this chick could “sizzle” is if you dropped her onto the griddle at Waffle House.
…it’s not crazy: you are, you fat trailerpark sow.
…we’re not “allowing” it, as none of the poxy car manufacturers has ever actually asked our permission.
…I didn’t think I could like these three guys any more than I already do, but this is epic.
…and when Mr. Sex Pistol himself calls you a moron…
…don’t too excited, folks. This has as much chance of getting past President Braindead’s veto pen as Ted Nugent has of getting a handjob from Oprah Winfrey. In Madison Square Garden. On stage.
…see the item above.
…serves ’em right for being rude.
…oh. My bad.

Silly fools even draw the swastika ass-about-face.

The REAL news: Carol Vorderman has freckled boobs.
Deceit And Coverup
Via Insty comes this latest bastardy, in Eureka MO just west of St. Louis:
Faced with complaints from parents about the indoctrination of children, an official in Rockwood School District, Missouri, instructed teachers to create two sets of curriculum: a false one to share with parents, and then the real set of curriculum, focused on topics like activism and privilege.
I should point out that the foul “educator” who sent out this loathsome message is, like First Lady Jill Biden, a Doctor in Education (EdD).
And the next time someone tells me that homeschooling is wrong for children, I’m going to punch them in the face.
