"In Cuban-fashion, millions of judge-jury-executioner online snitches, with government encouragement, will help root out incorrect thoughts at light speed." Victor Hanson Davis The last two years have wrought a societal slump that could reduce the United States of America to ruins. McCarthyism is back. The woke embrace of Cuba's communists and rejection of American exceptionalism is astounding. Bonus stimulus checks without any effort from the recipients. Borders flooded with people demanding to be taken care of. A woke military that's more concerned with social justice than providing national security. Scant police coverage so that looting, assault, and destruction of property are barely noticed. Today's progressives read those words and ask, "So what?" What happened to America? This comprehensive piece from Victor Hanson Davis provides a

Media in a snit fit over LSU dropout’s market power
Meet Addison Rae Easterling. She's 20 years old and has millions of followers on social media. Journalists are jelly because Addison Rae joked about 3 months of college education landing her a prime sports reporting job. All the people complaining about this because they studied sports broadcasting for 30 years should simply try having 80+ million tiktok followers https://t.co/0Zj8UN3d3X — Brendan O'Keeffe (@BrendanKOKeeffe) July 10, 2021 She's funny, smart, strategic, and telegenic. Those are ingredients for success in many careers. Oh my, media peeps. Get over yourselves. This kid has a massive online following and that puts her in a much stronger negotiating position than Jenny Journalism School grad. But whine on if that makes you feel better. Edward R. Murrow ain't walking through that door
Challenge woke teachers when they peddle Marxism and self hatred
BOOOOOOOM!!! GO MAMA BEAR!!! pic.twitter.com/lnOLu5tkxS — il Donaldo Trumpo (@ilSharko) June 10, 2021 Critical Race Theory (CRT) is touted by Liberals as a necessary WOKE transition for America's school curriculum. It shapes America's cultural and historical issues through the lens of 18th and 19th century slavery. The claim is that slavery still creates inequity for Black people to this day. This Illinois doctor is not having it. “How do I have two medical degrees if I’m sitting here oppressed?” An Illinois parent rips into Critical Race Theory at a school board meeting pic.twitter.com/KqJz4mzXuP — Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) June 17, 2021 Advocates claim CRT is nothing more than accurate American history. Skeptics see it as just another lightly challenged indoctrination of children to lock them in as Liberals. Woke youngens

Point of privilege, comrade: socialism is fun for they/them 💰
Free government money for everyone who makes less than $150,000. It's FREE! Just don't drill down to a definition of "family." FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! American families will start getting monthly child tax credit payments in July.Families with children under 6 years old can receive $300, while those with children over 6 can receive $250. The payments are phased out based on income levels. https://t.co/RimBThJ324— The New York Times (@nytimes) May 17, 2021 The Democratic Socialists of America must be ecstatic with this additional "free" money stream from the U.S. government. Capitalism produces all of the money that these sensitive leeches take in stimmy payments, grants, forgivable loans, and from their parents. How many of these moochers are still on mommy's family phone plan? These
The cicadas are woke! They fit in nicely making lots of noise about nothing.
The Brood X cicadas are popping out on their 17 year hibernation cycle, infesting parts of the eastern United States for the next few weeks. They're needlessly loud, garish, and incredibly horny. That's pretty much the gig. Make a quick pass through the ladies and find a breeding mate. Get the job done. Then die. Not much different than the cast of Jersey Shore. Where are those horndogs now? Either forgotten or dead. Cicadas are 10 times smarter than the Jersey Shore parasites. The video above from WHAS11's Shay McAlister takes us on a journey through 1970, 1987, and 2004 cyclical appearances of billions of cicadas. The late Fred Wiche, the leading voice in The Vault video above, was a news reporter and anchor for
Dear God, our judge, heal our brokenness
God, our judge, we plead our case with you. Lay your Divine hand upon the outcome of this (Derek Chauvin) case and also on our compatriots' anger, thoughts of revenge, and the insatiable need to disrupt and destroy. Stay any inclinations toward violence and remind us that vengeful behavior is no more justified than the acts of those who precipitated this grief and harm and ignited our cities. As you inevitably judge our response to the incidents of unrest that plague our land, forgive our iniquities and heal our brokenness. Redeem the soul of our country. Today's opening prayer in Congress delivered by Rear Admiral Margaret Grun Kibben (ret) covers every facet of America's dilemmas with right and wrong, race equity,
Delusional mayor and rah-rah squad declare downtown Louisville safe, sane people perplexed
VISIT DOWNTOWN LOUISVILLE: WE PROBABLY WON'T SHOOT YOU! Is this our city's next tourism slogan? Image makers are furiously weaving their woke principles to the city's desperation for downtown activity. The pandemic started the freefall but unhinged protesters set Louisville on a course to become Kentucky's biggest ghost town. The idiotic "driver hits Louisville protester" headline (on the video below) should actually read: "Woke thugs attack driver as one moron protester is deservedly run over" Welcome to Louisville. We used to be fun! After that driver wisely drove away from her terrorizers, one chased her to the next red light and pointed a gun at her before she sped away. Louisville is a friendly town! Did you notice the other car parked to intentionally block traffic at
Papa John is still trying to prove that he was framed into saying the N-word on a training call, lawsuit evidence and documents are released
Deposed Papa John's founder John Schnatter has presented evidence that public relations firm Laundry Service intentionally triggered his ouster after Schnatter used the N-word during a training call. Here is the lawsuit detailing Schnatter's claims of breach of contract and malicious conduct by Laundry Service (aka Wasserman Media Group, LLC). Schnatter contends that he was made to think that he was on a business strategy call and that Laundry Service associates turned it into a race-focused call, coerced Schnatter's comments on race, and then continued recording themselves discussing how to use Schnatter's comments against him. From Schnatter's lawsuit vs. Laundry Service: "34. Unbeknownst to Mr. Schnatter, Laundry Service recorded the call. However, Laundry Service continued recording after Mr. Schnatter hung up, and captured internal
Rep. John Yarmuth is “happy to defend every section” of the $1.9T stimulus package
House Budget Committee Chairman Rep. John Yarmuth (KY-3) joined me on 840WHAS to add deeper context to the spending plans in the Biden Administration's American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). Mr. Yarmuth is the primary author of the legislation. Parts of it were retooled by the Senate but it was ultimately passed and signed into law last week. Republicans claim that only a fraction of the spending package is appropriately aimed at eradicating the COVID pandemic. Americans earning $75,000 individually or $150,000 filing jointly receive up to $1,400 per person in stimulus funds from ARPA. Extra cash and tax credits are added for additional family members. That cash commitment makes up 22% of the $1.9 trillion spending package. "I'd be happy to defend every
