"On Saturday, Reuters tweeted a photo of Chinese weightlifter Hou Zhihui with a strained expression on her face as she competed in the women's 49-kilogram weightlifting category. Hou placed first in the snatch with 94 kg and with 116 kg in the clean and jerk, for a total of 210 kg, clinching the gold medal and setting an Olympic record.
"However, the Chinese Embassy in Sri Lanka was less than pleased with the photo Reuters selected for Hou. 'Among all the photos of the game, Reuters has chosen this one, which only shows how ugly they are,' wrote the embassy."
Wolf warriors?
More like pouting pussycats.
ITEM 2: LAist reported, "Prominent Democrat Party fundraiser and gay rights activist Ed Buck was found guilty today in connection with the deaths of two men at his West Hollywood apartment.
"Buck, 66, was found guilty on nine federal counts, including providing methamphetamine to two men who overdosed in his apartment on different occasions — Gemmel Moore, 26, who died in July 2017, and Timothy Dean, 55, who died in January 2019."
Buck got his jollies by injecting black male hookers with drugs and watching them die.
ITEM 3: The purple-haired hussies pretending to represent us in women's soccer competition remain tied Australia 0-0 in their third Olympic match. Sweden shut them out 3-0 in their first match. But the USA beat New Zealand, a nation with 4.9 million people and 26 million sheep.
The other teams have the advantage of being patriotic to their countries.
My only interest in the Olympics is hoping for them and the men's basketball team to crash and burn.
(Updated to add that win over New Zealand.)
ITEM 4: Fox reported, "Every Democrat senator voted to advance the nomination of an alleged eco-terrorist collaborator who also endorsed population control and once applauded a call to let people’s houses caught in forest fires burn.
"Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., ordered the vote to discharge Tracy Stone-Manning's nomination for Bureau of Land Management director from the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. Her nomination was previously stuck in committee after a tied vote.
"The Tuesday vote saw the Senate split down party lines on Stone-Manning, 50-49, with every Democrat voting in favor of advancing President Biden's embattled nominee."
Manchin chairs that committee.
He lacked the guts to protect lumberjacks from a woman who promotes putting nails in trees to stop timbering.
If Democrats really hate timbering, let them stop using wood.
ITEM 5: Fox reported, "The art dealer representing the president's son has longstanding ties to China and said in 2015 that he wanted to be the art world's "lead guy in China."
"Georges Berges, who is representing Hunter Biden as he ventures into the art world, has talked about his business dealings in China in the past, but his reported ties could pose an ethics issue as he sells Biden's art to anonymous buyers."
Ethics issues?
The whole thing is unethical.
Berges is an agent of Red China?
Well, so is Hunter Biden.
ITEM 6: Via Kane at Citizen Free Press, "Asian dude coldcocks black man screaming ‘go back to China.’"
Journalist Andy Ngô has the video.
I am uncomfortable with hitting someone for hate speech.
But given the attacks on Asians in Democrat cities, I can see why someone would just have a Popeye moment when he has had all he can stands because he can't stands no more.
ITEM 7: National Review reported, "With the Biden administration’s big push to vaccinate more Americans, PolitiFact, one of the media’s most consistently dishonest factchecking outfits, decided to rewrite history:
"President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have been pushing Americans to get inoculated against covid 19. But a video on social media suggests that they actually had reservations about the safety of the vaccines.
"PolitiFact contends that such accusations are completely false, as Biden and Harris were merely 'raising concerns about the rollout by then-President Donald Trump, not the vaccines themselves.' This is an absurd distinction, tantamount to arguing that Donald Trump is 'only raising concerns about those who conducted the 2020 election, not the election itself.'
"Of course, if the former president released a statement promising never to take any vaccine that was produced during the Biden presidency, it would rightly be seen as perpetuating skepticism. Conspiracies theories about vaccines revolve around the producers and disseminators of the medicine. Vaccines do not organically appear from the ether. They are made. And both Biden and Harris worked to discredit those charged with creating them."
None of this would have mattered if National Review's staff had grown up, admitted they were wrong, and supported the Trump presidency.
Posers gotta pose.
National Review is the U.S. women's soccer team in the political Olympics.
ITEM 8: Hamas-Shield AP said, "California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said Tuesday he pulled his children out of a summer day camp that did not require kids to wear masks, a violation of state policy that Newsom’s spokeswoman said he and his wife missed when reviewing communication from the camp."
After he got caught, that is.
AP reported, "Reopen California Schools, a group that promotes full school reopening without masks, tweeted Monday it had obtained photos of one of Newsom’s sons at the camp."
Newsom acts as if masks are just vaccine theater.
So does the CDC.
ITEM 9: Washington Free Beacon reported, "America's abortion laws are closer to North Korea's than they are to democratic countries', a fact the Supreme Court should consider as it weighs the constitutionality of Mississippi's abortion law, according to a new study.
"Mississippi's ban on abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy mirrors the laws in effect in 47 European countries, but the policy is at odds with Supreme Court precedent established by Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, which hold that abortion bans cannot be instituted prior to fetal viability. The standard—loosely set at 24 weeks—has stood for five decades despite rapid advances in medicine. Mississippi's challenge to the Court, according to American Principles Project president Terry Schilling, will usher the United States into the 21st century."
The link between abortion and socialism is stunning.
Free societies value life.
Socialism doesn't.
ITEM 10: ABC reported, "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention changed course Tuesday on some masking guidelines, recommending that even vaccinated people return to wearing masks indoors in parts of the U.S. where the delta variant of the coronavirus is fueling infection surges."
Sweden never mandated masks, never shut down, and pays people $23 to get the vaccine.
14,651 deaths out of 10,099,265 people.
Adjusted for population, that would be like 468,000 deaths in the USA.
America has suffered 611,000 covid deaths.
ITEM 11: One of these governors is not like the others...
Kristi Noem tweeted, "South Dakota's cases remain low. If you're worried about the virus, you're free to get vaccinated, wear a mask, or stay at home. But we won't be mandating anything. And the CDC's inconsistency doesn't help the American people."
Greg Abbott tweeted, "Every Texan has the right to choose whether they will wear a mask or have their children wear masks."
Ron DeSantis said, "Mandating masks for vaccinated people erodes public trust and confidence in the effectiveness of the vaccines. To me it appears that the government wants to be perceived as 'doing something' during a seasonal infection surge, even if their policy does not necessarily make people safer."
Gavin Newsom said, Mask-gregation Now. Mask-gregation Tomorrow. Mask-gregation Fo'evah!
(His actual words were, "You don't have a choice to go out and drink and drive and put everybody else's lives at risk.")
Mask mandates do not apply to Newsom, his wife, his kids, or any elected Democrat in California or their family members.
ITEM 12: Meanwhile, back at the border, illegal aliens brought in another 671 cases and two deaths on Monday.
But Reuters reported, "The United States will not lift any existing travel restrictions "at this point" due to concerns over the highly transmissible COVID-19 Delta variant and the rising number of U.S. coronavirus cases, the White House confirmed on Monday."
Illegal aliens have more rights than anyone.
Outside of California Democrat officials, that is.
ITEM 13: Katie Herzog reported, "Med Schools Are Now Denying Biological Sex. Professors are apologizing for saying ‘male’ and ‘female.’ Students are policing teachers. This is what it looks like when activism takes over medicine."
The 20th century had a bowel movement and called it the 21st century.
Frankly, I think Y2K killed us all and this is purgatory.
ITEM 14: Zero Hedge reported, "Brazil's top growing regions for coffee, sugar, and oranges are expected to see another round of frost later this week. A cold snap last week sent coffee futures to a seven-year high. Now orange juice futures are skyrocketing.
"Brazil is the world's leading orange juice producer. There are concerns about widespread frost Friday and Saturday in the southernmost regions of south Minas Gerais state could damage citrus trees.
"Drew Lerner, president of World Weather Inc, told Bloomberg that frost later this week 'would damage some trees' in the Minas Gerais state. Below are Friday morning forecast temperatures hovering around freezing."
I liked it better when orange juice came from Florida.
Roll On, Big-O!
You had to grow up in Cleveland to get it. My childhood was so great, it never ended.
ITEM 15: National Review reported, "Seattle Mayor Proposes Rebuilding Depleted Police Force after Violent Weekend."
The city has lost 250 of its 1,325 police officers in the last 17 months.
Get woke, and shootings rise 33%.
Yes, it is not a cute chant. It is not a cute situation either.
ITEM 16: The Washington Examiner reported, "Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin issued a warning toward China this week regarding aggression in the Pacific."
Watch out.
He'll send the 101st Transgendered Brigade.
How about shutting up and fixing the nation's defense by making our training as tough as the Red Chinese military training is?
FINALLY, KOMU reported, "President Joe Biden will announce on Thursday a requirement that all federal employees and contractors be vaccinated against Covid-19, or be required to submit to regular testing and mitigation requirements, according to a source with direct knowledge of the matter.
"The announcement will come in remarks where Biden is also expected to lay out a series of new steps, including incentives, in an attempt to spur new vaccinations as the Delta variant spreads rapidly throughout the country. It will also follow the decision by the Department of Veterans Affairs to require its frontline health care workers to be vaccinated over the course of the next two months."
We shall see if this happens.

ReplyDeleteNo, it has not.
611,000 deaths have been attributed to Covid without valid scientific data to support that number.
Fixed it.
Thank you.
DeleteCDC says only 6% died FROM Covid... so reduce the 611,000 down to about 36,000
DeleteITEM 1: a strained expression on her face

DeleteITEM 16: I loved Rush’s idea of how to deal effectively with woman in combat.
ReplyDeleteThey’re combat ready on PMS. So what we do is we create a force. We call it the All-American First Cavalry Amazon Battalion, and we segregate women enough in various bases and barracks so that you have synchronized menstrual cycles. They’re timed in such a way that on any day of the year, you are guaranteed to have a fighting female force all in PMS, all during premenstrual syndrome.
P.S. Rush’s idea spawned this hilarious Sean Delonas cartoon. It was not well received by the NOW gang.

ReplyDeleteIt's a full employment plan for Greek letters - now that the National Hurricane Center will no longer be using them for the "overflow" naming of tropical storms.
DeleteItem 14: “Brazil is the world's leading orange juice producer. There are concerns about widespread frost Friday and Saturday” “Frost” is okay; it makes the oranges sweeter. Temperatures below 28 degrees will freeze the oranges and make them rot after they thaw. Temperatures in the teens or low 20s will kill the trees themselves.
ReplyDeleteI was in Florida in 1983 when freezing temperatures in the teens wiped out hundreds of thousands of acres of citrus groves in the northern part of the state. Grove owners replanted, only to have the tender young trees killed by another freeze in 1985. Ever optimistic, most replanted again. Four years later, on Christmas Eve 1989, when the first crops on the new trees were just coming in, a devistating freeze reached far into the middle and southern part of the state. With that, the robust citrus industry in Florida would never recover. There are a few thousand acres still around, but Florida will never again be “The Citrus State.”
Add to that the orange blight that started in 2005 (interestingly named huanglongbing or HLB ) that wiped out 75% of Florida's citrus trees and it pretty well killed the business.

ReplyDeleteItem 6 - The NYC Asian community and the Jewish community both need as much vigilante push back as they can muster. The police will come to take the body to the ER or the morgue. Nobody is stopping the attacks. We need as many Bernie Goetzs, of all races, as we can find.
Sadly, that is what time it is in NYC.
Item 2: Where's the mad hyena press investigation into Shifty Schiff's relation ship with his major donor Ed Buck? Shouldn't the Chair of the Intelligence Committee be scrutinized for the relationship he had with Buck over many years and continued relationship as allegation about Buck & his partner injecting gay blacks with drugs became louder over the years?
ReplyDeleteAnother Dem Intelligence Committee member - Swalwell - had a years long affair with his Chinese handler and political fund raiser Feng Feng.
Is there an intrepid reporter with any media organization willing to blow the Intelligence cabal wide open?
It's all part of the plan to destroy our 4th estate. The boys and girls at Pravda would be proud of our present day media.
Delete12 - One of the annoying aspects of this whole thing is that the US side has been pleading with Canada to get the border reopened for more than just commercial traffic - for about a year now. The closure has been devastating to the border regions on both sides. So just when Canada finally agrees to a reopening on August 6th, the clown show in DC immediately says no we're keeping it shut down.
ReplyDeleteNoted fabulist Michael Wolff is still out stumping for his latest book release on Donald Trump. Yes, another one. He gave an interview with the New York Times and he provides a most curious quote from the Lack of Self-Awareness Department.
ReplyDeleteIn Opinion
"To write three books in four years about Donald Trump has been an immersion into his obsessions and fixations. This is why I know the obvious: Donald Trump will run for president again," Michael Wolff writes. https://t.co/Bwg2ytbuq9

Oh Michael. You just admitted to writing THREE books on the same man over a four year span. That right there is the very definition of “obsessions and fixations”.

I notice in reports of CASES of the Delta variant that it is never accompanied by reported DEATHS.
ReplyDeleteIf Covid was a bad flu, Delta appears to be a common cold.
We never before locked down healthy people for the flu and we never before forced facial fashion accessories on people for colds.
Take away porn watching on government computers by unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats and they have 6 ways from Sunday to get back at you.
Maybe delta IS the flu. We now know their"test" cannot differentiate between covid and the flu. Left unsaid is that the common cold is a coronavirus.
Delete#14 I will attest that Lawson’s Big -O was widely seen on the other end of the state too.

ITEM 1: Don, at least China’s athletes compete; rather than dropping out in the middle of a team competition because of stress.
ReplyDeleteAnd Americans, especially the media, call our choker a “hero” because she recognized she had a “mental illness” - which the American team initially claimed was a “medical condition” and took “me time” to take care of herself.
Your effort to ridicule the Chinese in the face of the late-stage feminization of America makes you the punch line of your little joke.
I understand you consider yourself an elderly man who doesn’t have that much time - but before you criticize the Chinese for bitching about the photo some Western FakeNews source used for one of the Chinese Gold Medialists - take a look around.
As an American you live in a glass house. That was a terrible comment and it was ridiculous you used it as your first item today.
Don, the world is openly laughing at the USA. We have an elderly man who is obviously in late-stage dementia as our illegitimate POTUS; and we call chokers our heros now - and you want to throw shade at China???
Don. Buy a freakin vowel.
Susie: I love DS and you both. I'm loving your position as therapist-philosopher. But please be careful of your pronouns (not in the woke way). Who is calling a choker a hero? Not I. Name the criminal. And...listen to REM doing "At My Most Beautiful". (Brian Wilson tribute)
DeleteHi Dermot - this is just one of many examples of “journalists” and other “influential Americans” — I use all three quoted words because they accurately reflect current-day America; which truly sucks — identifying the “choker” Simone Biles as a “hero.”
Deletehttps://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/07/28/sports/i-couldnt-imagine-just-being-silent-jayson-tatum-comes-out-support-simone-biles/
Now, I don’t know about you, but I reserve the word “hero” to those who risk (and in certain cases give) their lives to save others.
Relatively soon Dermot — perhaps tomorrow — Influential Americans will be calling “hero’s” those fellow Americans who take time off from work because they have a painful hang nail and need “me time” to go to the spa and de-stress.
Making fun of China…Give me a freakin break.

Don, just to be absolutely clear, that Chinese women whose honor the Chinese embassy in Sir Lanka is defending has more testosterone in her body than the average American Millennial male (what Americans today call “males” because we are no longer in our right minds).
ReplyDeleteAnd this is all about the changes taking place in the USA over generations. To say Americans on average have gotten soft, fat, and lazy is an understatement.
Ridiculing the most significant external threat to America’s Constitutional Republic may make you feel good, but it is an empty gesture.
Just like all the jokes about Nancy and Liz — sad to say it Don because you don’t seem to like to deal with reality — but Nancy, Liz, the Andy’s — have American Patriots by the short hairs (being polite).
They are hunting down and locking up their political opponents: and all we do is say “Wait till November 2022” AS IF the Democrats won’t find another way to steal the election.
ITEM 16: “How about shutting up and fixing the nation's defense by making our training as tough as the Red Chinese military training is?”
ReplyDeleteLook around Don. It’s too late for that. As you note above regarding the 20th Century having a “bowel movement” we’re living in “purgatory”…if we’re lucky. Nowadays, all American military positions need to be reconfigured so they can be performed by late-stage pregnant birthing bodies.
The USA military gave up winning wars decades ago.
There is no reason to think things are going to get better. But we have to fight each and every day in the hope our efforts will make a positive difference.
No predictions Don…your predictions are beyond terrible. All we have is the fight. Never give up; Never give in.
I have lost a great deal of respect for every major American institution; including law enforcement and the military. I don’t believe ANY major American institution is on the side of the American People.
They don’t have my support. At best, they have my seething discontent.
S: Me again. You remind me of those years...the war...I was a kid wondering whether I'd get drafted. A Republican. Fully pissed at the administrations. But not in the leftist way. We had the technology to take N. Vietnam off the map of the Earth. Instead we sent boys in little boats up rivers to get shot. We should have spoken as the avatar of freedom...then done the job. And here we are today, with candy-ass generals hoping they'll be spared by China's overlords.
DeleteDermot — The only two American Presidents in my lifetime that truly had the back of the American People were President Ronald Reagan and President Donald Trump.
DeleteThat’s it. Both made mistakes. For example; both made compromises when selecting their Vice President which diminished their legacies.
Hopefully, President Donald Trump has learned from his mistakes and if God is on our side he will chose a courageous America First Patriot for his next VP.
Susie, well said in your reply.
DeleteJeffery, I'd tell you to take your sock puppets and find a room, but you do that every night.
