Tim Scott responds to Obamas' criticism of Supreme Court ruling: 'A lie from the pit of hell' | Fox News

Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., said Thursday that the Supreme Court's decision to overrule affirmative action in colleges should be celebrated. On "The Faulkner Focus," the 2024 presidential candidate also hit back at former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama, who said "my heart breaks" for young people who are "wondering what their future holds" after the decision. Scott said the Obamas and others on the left are pushing lies "from the pit of hell" about opportunity in America.

Netherlands euthanizing autistic and intellectually handicapped people, researcher finds | Fox News

Netherlands programs have euthanized otherwise healthy individuals with autism and intellectual handicaps in recent years, researchers have found. Five individuals under the age of 30, who cited autism as a factor in their decision to seek legal euthanasia, are among the cases reviewed by specialists at the U.K.'s Kingston University. "Factors directly associated with intellectual disability and/or ASD were the sole cause of suffering described in 21% of cases and a major contributing factor in a further 42% of cases," Kingston University's report on the issue found.

"The Michigan House Appropriations Committee approved Tuesday a $120.3 million legislative transfer toward preparations for Ford Motor Company’s upcoming plant in Marshall, BlueOval Battery Park.
A local group, the Marshall Area Economic Development Alliance, will be granted the funds if the Senate Appropriations Committee grants its approval.
The request for Legislative Transfer 2023-4 explains how the funds would be used:
This state investment would support land acquisition, site preparation, water and wastewater upgrades, and other necessary public infrastructure improvements at the strategic Marshall mega-site, where the Ford Motor Company’s new electric vehicle (EV) battery manufacturing facility, BlueOval Battery Park, is proposed to be located.
As The Detroit News reports, “Ford's total incentives for the $3.5 billion project amount to about $1.6 billion in state and local taxpayer aid once local and state tax incentives are taken into consideration.”
...Last year, Michigan lawmakers approved 
  • $100 million for Ford to hire 3,030 factory workers. 
  • Two months later, Ford laid off 3,000 white-collar and contract workers...

How I Will Use Michigan’s New Law That Criminalizes Making Hersterical Women And Effeminate Men Feel Bad

How I Will Use Michigan’s New Law That Criminalizes Making Hersterical Women And Effeminate Men Feel Bad - BY BRIGGS

"...Here’s the meat of the law:

The language about “feelings” is found in the legislation’s defining of “intimidation” as being the “willful course of conduct, involving repeated or continuing harassment of another individual that would cause a reasonable individual to feel terrorized, frightened, intimidated, threatened, harassed, or molested, and that actually causes the victim to feel terrorized, frightened, or threatened.”

There you go.
  • Give a woman bad feelz and you’re a criminal.
  • Express disgust over men running around in public waving their pertinents at passersby and you are guilty of threatening the LGBTQWERTY++ “community.”...

Anheuser-Busch CEO refuses to say if he'd allow Bud Light's disastrous Dylan Mulvaney promo in hindsight | Fox News

Anheuser-Busch CEO refuses to say if he'd allow Bud Light's disastrous Dylan Mulvaney promo in hindsight | Fox News

Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth declined to say if he would allow Bud Light’s disastrous promotion with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney to happen again, in hindsight, despite ongoing backlash. 

Bud Light sales have plummeted since the beermaker gifted Mulvaney special cans in April to celebrate a full year of "girlhood," which the influencer quickly claimed were her "most prized possession" on Instagram with a post that featured "#budlightpartner." A second video then featured Mulvaney in a bathtub drinking a Bud Light beer as part of the campaign — and the company has been mocked and boycotted ever since. 

The brilliant man "brings the fire"!-----Clarence Thomas' Concurring Opinion on Affirmative Action Is Incredible

Clarence Thomas' Concurring Opinion on Affirmative Action Is Incredible - Spencer Brown
  • "Even though Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas joined Chief Justice Roberts in the majority opinion finding that using a student's race in college admission decision violated the 14th Amendment, Thomas also filed a concurring opinion explaining more of his thinking on the matter.
"In his usual style, Justice Thomas traces the history of the United States and its citizens' ongoing efforts to pursue a more perfect union — efforts that haven't always been smooth and have, at points, failed to move the country forward. 
Still, Thomas shares his optimism that America will continue to become a better place, all while excoriating the left's "equity" agenda...
Thomas also refuses to hold back on his fellow justices' flawed views of affirmative action and mistaken interpretation of the Constitution in his opinion. 
In evaluating the argument made in a dissenting opinion filed by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, Thomas brings the fire:
Justice Jackson uses her broad observations about statistical relationships between race and select measures of health, wealth, and well-being to label all blacks as victims. Her desire to do so is unfathomable to me. I cannot deny the great accomplishments of black Americans, including those who succeeded despite long odds.

Nor do Justice Jackson's statistics regarding a correlation between levels of health, wealth, and well-being between selected racial groups prove anything. Of course, none of those statistics are capable of drawing a direct causal link between race—rather than socioeconomic status or any other factor—and individual outcomes. So Justice Jackson supplies the link herself: the legacy of slavery and the nature of inherited wealth. This, she claims, locks blacks into a seemingly perpetual inferior caste. Such a view is irrational; it is an insult to individual achievement and cancerous to young minds seeking to push through barriers, rather than consign themselves to permanent victimhood.

"Justice Jackson’s race-infused world view falls flat at each step," Thomas declares. "Individuals are the sum of their unique experiences, challenges, and accomplishments. What matters is not the barriers they face, but how they choose to confront them," he notes. "And their race is not to blame for everything—good or bad—that happens in their lives. A contrary, myopic world view based on individuals’ skin color to the total exclusion of their personal choices is nothing short of racial determinism," Thomas adds.

Clocking in at 58 pages, Justice Thomas' concurring opinion (beginning at page 49 here) ends with a straightforward three-paragraph conclusion:


The great failure of this country was slavery and its progeny. And, the tragic failure of this Court was its misinterpretation of the Reconstruction Amendments, as Justice Harlan predicted in Plessy. We should not repeat this mistake merely because we think, as our predecessors thought, that the present arrangements are superior to the Constitution.

The Court’s opinion rightly makes clear that Grutter is, for all intents and purposes, overruled. And, it sees the universities’ admissions policies for what they are: rudderless, race-based preferences designed to ensure a particular racial mix in their entering classes. Those policies fly in the face of our colorblind Constitution and our Nation’s equality ideal. In short, they are plainly—and boldly—unconstitutional. See Brown II, 349 U. S., at 298 (noting that the Brown case one year earlier had “declare[d] the fundamental principle that racial discrimination in public education is unconstitutional”).

While I am painfully aware of the social and economic ravages which have befallen my race and all who suffer discrimination, I hold out enduring hope that this country will live up to its principles so clearly enunciated in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States: that all men are created equal, are equal citizens, and must be treated equally before the law.

He further claims that David Weiss, the Trump-appointed U.S. attorney in Delaware, said privately on several occasions that he was not pulling the strings and that he was not in charge of the investigation. Shapley said he was in a meeting last fall when Weiss admitted he was not calling the shots.

Media/UN/climate-cultists caught in another lie!-----Minding the Sciences — Greenwashing a Famine

Minding the Sciences — Greenwashing a Famine
"In April, David Muir of ABC News broadcast a special report from South Sudan, which featured the efforts of the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) to stave off famine in the country’s northern provinces.
What caught my ear was Muir’s claim that South Sudan is the “new front line of the climate crisis.” Muir was echoing the WFP’s narrative. “Unprecedented flooding” has displaced tens of thousands of people. The flooding has interfered with agriculture and has disrupted the timely delivery of food, goods, and services that could otherwise prevent starvation. Nearly eight million people are said to be at risk...
That’s easy to check. 
  • Unprecedented flooding requires unprecedented rainfalls. 
Below is a chart of South Sudan’s mean annual rainfall (MAR) from 1901 to 2021, the latest year for which data are available from the World Bank:

Figure 2: Mean annual rainfall in South Sudan, 1901–2021

  • ...What, then, is the nature of food shortages in South Sudan?
Some context is in order...Country-wide, cereal crop yields are up by 12–16% over last year, however. Widespread crop failure is therefore not the problem for South Sudan. 
What, then, is the problem?...
  • It is not the “climate crisis” that is hindering their efforts, but a perfect storm of political disruptions, corruption, graft, and piracy...

school boards nationwide that have been promoting the queer agenda to little
kids, against the wishes of parents.

...The situation however is far more insidious than suggested by these stories alone. 
It seems that this issue has been building for a long time, unnoticed by parents and kept quiet by school officials and teachers as they introduced these materials widely in school curriculums and libraries.
For example, why is it that these pornography books, clearly written to appeal to young minds, have appeared so widely in so many schools throughout the nation?...
  • Such widespread eagerness suggests a strong organized effort within the education community to promote the teaching of sex to little kids. 
This is confirmed by a review of the queer agenda books recommended to teachers and schools by Scholastic, which is one of the main sources for school librarians.
