Youth With A Mission
I've been concerned for some time with our culture's headlong plunge into "Don't trust people with education and experience; trust the children." Now Rachel Junck has crystallized that concern for me. She is a 20-year-old college student who was elected to the Ames City Council. I'm sure Ames will benefit from her experience and education or, rather, her lack thereof, as she works hard on her #1 priorty -- fighting climate change in Ames, Iowa.
And Now for Something Completely Different
I don't know if you remember transgender activist Jessica Yaniv. He (claiming to be a she) made the news some time ago when he sued some salon workers who refused to wax "her man parts" (I put that there so you can see how lunatic it is) because ... they were man parts. He lost that case, but he's back. Now he's complaining about illegal discrimination because a gynecologist refused to give him an appointment. Remember, he has "man parts" -- he's not post-operative. What, exactly, did he expect a gynecologist to do? And whatever that is, why must all gynecologists do it? Yaniv is "shocked" and "confused" and "hurt." Well, the "confused" part is obviously correct. Even Ricky Gervais considers Yaniv a "sex-pest troll."
The Hero Actor
Actor Mark Ruffalo, who played Hulk for the Avengers movie series, attacked capitalism this week. "It’s time for an economic revolution. Capitalism today is failing us, killing us, and robbing from our children’s future," said the actor who reportedly made $13 million from the movies. To back his position, he voiced support for Bernie Sanders and offered to surrender his millions so that the less fortunate and the children could benefit. Only half of that last sentence was true.
Fruits and Vegetables
Okay, maybe that's not a kind title here, but "impeachment" makes me think of peaches (fruit) and a lot of what's going on appears to be mindless (vegetables), so ...
Nancy Pelosi claimed, "This isn’t about politics at all. This is about patriotism. It’s not about partisanship." Al Green said, "I'm concerned if we don't impeach this president he will get re-elected." Jerry Nadler said, "An impeachment of a president is an doing of a national election." I can't repeat what Adam Schiff said about Trump. Not about politics, right? Luckily the media remains unbiased. Newsweek assured us that Trump is "America's anti-president." Business Insider ridiculed Republicans for using "massive signs to defend Trump" by, get this, using Democrats' own words. The fools.
No one really believes this is not political, do they? No one really believes that the Democrat-controlled House is conducting a "fair and impartial" hearing, do they? No one actually thinks that the House will hear evidence against and for Trump, do they? I don't think so. But "thinking" isn't really part of this, is it?
Many a Truth is Said in Jest
Sure, it's the Babylon Bee, but the headline was just too close to the truth: "Kamala Harris Fulfills Campaign Promise To Improve America By Dropping Out Of Race." Right?
