Fun Fact of the Day: These Four Republicans Byron Donalds (FL-19), Wesley Hunt (TX-38), John James (MI-10), and Burgess Owens (UT-4) represent majority white congressional districts, and NOT one of them was allowed to join the Black Congressional Caucus. Are they not black enough? 🤔 I’m starting to think the democrats are being very disingenuous about all this talk of black people being unable to be elected or represented, the black vote being repressed, and the “Jim Crow 2.0” bullshit. 🤨

Every time I want to humble myself, I read entrance exam questions from formerly prestigious universities that were written over a century ago. We live in the ruins of an advanced civilization.

The mainstream media is concerned about anti-Asian discrimination — unless it occurs in college admissions.

As I’ve noted many times, the downplaying of the Korean War as a forgotten war increasingly feels like a deliberate attempt to bury this important western victory in the Cold War. America and its allies in UN Command saved half of Korea from Stalinism and came close to bestowing western freedom (maybe not at once, but eventual) on the entire peninsula. 52 million South Koreans live in a free, wealthy, and western democratic society with a thriving economy thanks to their and our sacrifices in this war.

The Korean War does not nearly enough attention that it deserves. The US and it's allies successfully defended South Korea's independence from North Korea and China and halted the spread of communism on the Korean peninsula.

The Dallas Wings passing on Olivia Miles just to pair Paige Bueckers with her UConn teammate & girlfriend Azzi Fudd is company MALPRACTICE. Olivia Miles was the clear cut #1 overall player in the draft and it shows.

Black Panther isn't real either, let's make him Korean

Court-packing is a completely mainstream view on the political left now. They see it as entirely justified because they are unhappy with recent decisions. They're not interested in the "judicial philosophies" behind the opinions - they just want their way. They're refreshingly honest about this.

On this day in 1941, Joe DiMaggio went 1-for-4 vs. the White Sox and began what remains the longest hitting streak in MLB history ⚾ Not only is Joltin' Joe's 56-game hit streak the only one to go 50+, the closest anyone has come this century was Jimmy Rollins, who went 38 straight spanning the 2005-06 seasons.

Incentives explain behaviors. Some of the standards films must meet to be considered for the Oscars: - At least one of the lead actors or significant supporting actors is from an underrepresented racial or ethnic group in a specific country or territory of production. - At least 30% of all actors in secondary and more minor roles are from at least two underrepresented groups - The main storyline(s), theme or narrative of the film is centered on an underrepresented group(s). - At least six (6) other crew/team and technical positions (excluding Production Assistants) are from an underrepresented racial or ethnic group. - At least 30% of the film’s crew is from at least two underrepresented groups

These two giant turtles have been fighting each other for more than 120 years. According to the zoo, one turtle stole the other’s food 120 years ago, and since that day they became enemies. There hasn’t been a single day where they don’t fight for 2–3 minutes😂

There's a reason that the 00s feel like the last real decade. Something happened in 2009. iPhones invented two years before. Then in 2009, Facebook rolled out its personalized algorithm-driven feed. Twitter and Instagram followed a few years later. I really think, if you have to point to just one culprit (though there are several), it would be this. The algorithm killed the monoculture more than anything else. We live now in a culture almost entirely shaped by the algorithm, which is to say that we have no culture.

Every decade in modern American history can be identified and defined by its own style, its own approach to music, film, fashion, its own aesthetic. That seems to have stopped right around 2010. The 2010s don't really have their own unique feel, even in retrospect. The 2020s certainly don't. We're more than halfway through the decade. What are the movies, music, style, and trends that this decade will be remembered for? It's like we fell into some kind of cultural blackhole 15 years ago.

Brett Kavanaugh, a man in his 50s, had been valedictorian of his high school, at Yale College and a star student at Yale Law, had clerked for the Supreme Court, had a top career as an appellate lawyer and federal judge and a pristine reputation, and then a random woman from the town he grew up in claimed he had groped her at a party 35 years earlier when they were in high school. Kavanaugh didn’t try to argue that the incident was consensual. He didn’t claim he remembered things differently than she did. He immediately stated that he had never even met the accuser. Denying ever meeting the accuser is a much stronger claim than merely denying assaulting her, and much easier to refute. After Kavanaugh made this denial, Christine Blasey-Ford no longer had to prove he had sexually assaulted her to scuttle his nomination, she only had to prove that the two of them had attended a party together at which such an assault might have occurred. She was unable to do so. She did not know whose house the alleged assault occurred at. None of the people she claimed attended the party corroborated any aspect of her account. Leland Keyser, a friend of Blasey-Ford’s, who the accuser claimed was at the alleged party, said she recalled no such event and had never met Kavanaugh. Kavanaugh produced a detailed calendar he had kept during the summer Blasey-Ford alleged she was assaulted, which included his whereabouts of every weekend night and listing who he was with. Kavanaugh argued that he could alibi himself and provide witnesses for any night Blasey-Ford claimed she might have been at a party with him. Blasey-Ford responded that she did not know the date of her assault and was not entirely certain it even occurred that year. Instead of being seen as persuasive, Kavanaugh’s calendar was mocked in both mainstream and social media because the reason he kept it was for a drinking contest he was having with his friends. Nearly a decade later, there is still not a single shred of proof or a single witness who will corroborate the claim that Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey-Ford were ever in the same room before she testified at his confirmation hearing. Nonetheless, people like Nick Kristof still claim Kavanaugh was “credibly accused” of sexually assaulting this woman.

Oxford University is older than the Aztec Empire.

The Anglo-Saxons have been in Britain for about twice as long as the Maori have been in New Zealand. It makes you wonder why the Maori are called "indigenous" to New Zealand while Britain is called a "nation of immigrants".

If you are a Christian but are not worried about Muslims attacking synagogues in America like it’s happening now in New York, you should wake up! There’s a Muslim saying: “First we go after the Saturday people, then the Sunday people.” This is exactly what’s happening now in Europe. After attacking synagogues and driving out the remaining Jewish people, Muslims are now targeting Christians on their way to church. For them, it’s a literal religious war of conquest! America needs to wake up before it’s too late!

The Ottoman Empire was once the world's most fearsome power — but the jizya, the Qur'an's tax on Jews and Christians, was the chief source of its income. Once the Jewish and Christian communities were bled dry and impoverished, the great empire went into an irreversible decline. Islam teaches no work ethic. Its ideal state has Muslims living on the backs of non-Muslims, while discriminating against the non-Muslims so severely that the host cannot indefinitely continue to support the parasite. And so Islamic states inevitably go into decline and have to wage more jihad to find more non-Muslims to support them. Find out more about this in "The Tragedy of Islam: Failure and Excuses"
