You know, you just can’t win.

MayaWiley 1200x1200.Yesterday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” civil rights attorney Maya Wiley said there was a direct line from some folks referring to Kamala Harris as a DEI hire to Project 2025.

I have to point out that Biden said I’m going to choose a black female for my Vice President.

He didn’t say, I’m going to choose the best person to be my Vice President. He made it about race and gender right from the start. In my book that’s pretty much the definition of a DEI hire.

Project 2025 (I have not read it entirely) appears to be a plan for the next president, (granted it’s skewed conservative and more likely than not, toward Trump and his base,) however it’s a plan for any President to use in their first 180 days in office.

The plan was put together by conservatives in an attempt to help chart a course correction for the country. Any President is welcome to use it. Just because the plan was written by conservatives doesn’t mean that it’s been delivered from the 7th circle of hell direct from Satans hand.

Notice I said a plan. Not a manifesto, not tablets from a mountain, not etched in stone, not the edicts of an emperor enforced under penalty of death. It’s a plan. Plans change, adapt, and are abandoned often once the plan meets reality. (Joe Biden’s 2nd term & Reelection campaign ring a bell?)

Ms Wiley claims that Project 2025 is going to dismantle all the civil rights laws.

I find that claim to be dubious. Although someone like her would say the same thing about my belief that special protection laws should be stricken from the books.

I believe if we lived under the premise that all Citizens are created equal, then by extension all laws apply equally to all Citizens, negating any necessity for special protections.

The law gets a whole lot simpler to obey and enforce if it’s consistent and has none or very few exceptions.

A thief is a thief subject to a penalty for theft regardless of skin color, gender, religion, or sexual orientation. For example: If you steal, and are caught you get 4 years in prison for each $1000 in value.

Simple, enforceable, and easily understood.

When I talk about exceptions I mean to penalties. I believe a Judge should have the ability to sentence a 14 year old first time offender to community service rather than prison or other  incarceration.

In other words I believe there should be the possibility for humanity and mercy not a totally mechanistic justice system. Which is why I believe Judges must be wise, know the law, and incorruptible. At the same time, laws should be few in number and easy to understand.

I digress.

I don’t know what Ms Wiley is talking about, as I said, I haven’t gotten that far into the document.

It’s available, you can download it. The writers of Project 2025 aren’t trying to hide it or be sneaky.

What I find interesting is this.

If there wasn’t a plan of some kind the left would be beating the right over the head about not having a plan. 

Because there is a plan, the left is pulling out all the stops to label the plan as something evil and some of the left is equating Project 2025 to Mein Kampf.

Thus far I haven’t seen evidence to corroborate this equivalence but I’ll keep looking.

Here is a link to The Heritage Foundation, authors of Project 2025

Here is a link to the Project 2025 document entitled Mandate for Leadership The Conservative Promise

Read it for yourself.

Here are links to Democracy Forward’s rebuttal to Project 2025’s Mandate for Leadership

Democracy Forward’s document is called The People’s Guide to Project 2025

Read that for yourself too.

Don’t believe the hyperbole from the talking heads… Or ME! I’m not the brightest bulb in the pack either. 

I beg you to read & research for yourself. Because these days it’s getting really hard to figure out what is true and who is telling the truth.

I swear CNN seems to search for idiot commentators.

The idiotic statements that come out of these peoples mouths never ceases to amaze me.

CNN political commentator Ashley Allison said Tuesday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that it is offensive to her as a black woman when Vice President Kamala Harris is called incompetent.

CEO and Commentator Ashley Allison.

How the hell do you get to the race card with a statement of objective fact?

I’ve linked the rest of the article as it appeared in Breitbart Here

Ms Allison makes her case after an exchange with Matt Mowers formerly of the Trump Administration, wherein he described Kamala Harris’s record of failure. All of which fits the definition of the word “Incompetence”. Apparently Ms Allison nor anyone else on the panel, aside from Mr. Mowers, has ever opened a dictionary.

Allison said, “She’s not incompetent, okay. Like, you don’t become the attorney general of California or senator or the vice president of United States. By calling her incompetent you’re calling the 81 million people who voted for her incompetent as well.”

All one need do is look a Kamala’s history to dismantle Ms. Allisons defense. Kamala Harris had the path cleared for her to become attorney general of California by Willie Brown. Her ascension to Senate was similarly arranged. What should offend Ms. Allison is Kamala’s record as attorney general and the various miscarriages of justice and scandals during her tenure. 

I believe it was Tulsi Gabbard who in a 2019 debate enumerated Kamala Harris’s incompetence as California Attorney General. Effectively ending Harris’s presidential campaign.

CNN Talking heads just can’t seem to do any research at all, unless it’s about Trump or someone loosely affiliated with Trumps 9th cousin thrice removed on his mother’s side.

One line of her reasoning stood out to me, “By calling her incompetent you’re calling the 81 million people who voted for her incompetent as well.”

Okay, by that logic, the left and media calling Trump a NAZI, a Rapist, a white supremacist, an insurrectionist, etc., has been calling ~80 million voters who voted for Trump all of those things as well.

And people like Ms Allison wonder why there is so much hate and division in this country. Really? Look to your own double standards lady!

As a White Man, It’s offensive when media “personalities” call and /or imply Trump, Vance, Comer, Jordan, or Rand Paul are hateful Neo-Nazi bigots without evidence because these talking heads don’t like their politics or decisions.

But we all know, if I say something like that, it’s dismissed because I’m a White Man and my concerns or opinions don’t matter nearly as much as yours do. Racism and your race card have become so fucking irrelevant at this point you might want to back off that rhetoric. 

I daresay white people are sick of hearing it, and have started to reexamine the guilt you trigger screaming racist every freaking minute.

I have no guilt. People like you will not shame me any more. I refuse to allow you to manipulate me. I will proudly cast my vote for the most qualified person regardless of their gender or skin color.

As an aside, I have no more patience or pity for any group who defines themselves first by their race, gender or sexuality.

Be Americans, stand with other Americans, or get to the fucking back of the bus! Yeah, I meant that to be offensive. I’d love to be able to ask Rosa Parks what her thoughts on screaming “racist” every five minutes is doing to end racism. Somehow I bet you wouldn’t like what she said.

Ms Allison, you and your ilk should understand this, with your constant haranguing, and rhetoric, you are creating the very Nationalists you’re scared of.

Maybe you should start doing journalism and reporting facts instead of emotions.

I had to say it. I know nothing in the media is going to change, except to get worse.

As my Father used to say, “Son you’re pissing into the wind.”

Does she hear herself?

Margaret Brennan of CBS was being unbelievably duplicitous on Face The Nation. On the one hand she says she deserves some leniency about her comments immediately after Trump was shot.

She said at the time Trump didn’t say anything to cool the temperature of Trumps supporters in the wake of them witnessing an assassination attempt.

Uh you clueless bitch! Trump was the one who was shot, That he was telling the crowd he was fine, with fist pumps and “Fight, Fight, Fight” was pretty damn impressive.

My point is that he was literally in the middle of a high stress situation and thought enough to signal to the crowd that he was alive and minimally hurt. (Which by the way, did a lot to calm the crowd.)

Apparently while she was making dumb comments, she expected Trump to pontificate on the relative merits of remaining calm and not seeking revenge in some master soliloquy that would pass her editorial requirements.

Hey Brennan, fuck you!

My god I have developed a new level of hatred for these talking heads.

It is beyond unbelievable to me that less than 24 hours after the assasination attempt the talking heads are trying to blame Republicans, Trump, and MAGA for this violence against Trump.

What the actual fuck?

These people disgust me!
