I've always stated and will always state that mega corporations should NOT get sweetheart deals from city/state/country etc. The playing field should be level for everyone from local mom & pops, to mega corporations. Problem is not opposing it, she wasn't really opposing it in principal, only that she wanted HER demands in any deal.

BREAKING: Pelosi, Dems to Introduce Resolution to ‘CONFRONT’ Ilhan Omar’s Anti-Israeli Rhetoric

House Democrats -including Speaker Nancy Pelosi- are poised to introduce a new resolution this week that will “confront” Rep. Ilhan Omar’s recent anti-Israeli comments and fiery rhetoric against the Jewish State.

“Speaker Nancy Pelosi and top Democrats will take floor action Wednesday in response to controversial remarks by Rep. Ilhan Omar about Israel, the second such rebuke of the freshman Democrat from party leaders in recent weeks,” reports Politico.

“Pelosi and other senior Democrats are drafting a resolution to address the controversy, which ballooned over the weekend following a public clash between Omar and senior Jewish lawmakers,” adds the article.

Omar made national headlines over the weekend after refusing to “pledge allegiance” to a foreign country; refusing to back-down from her previous comments regarding the “occupation” of Palestine.

It's plain to see what foreign power Congress owes allegiance to - at least it's not Russia, I guess.

In a way, it sort of looks like a resolution proving to be true what the resolution claims is a myth.
 
When Left-Loved Identities Collide: Muslims Fight And Defeat The Gay Agenda At Parkfield School

mommy-mama-and-me-book-SCREENSHOT.jpg


From The Guardian:

Children from reception age through to year six were being taught five No Outsiders lessons a year, each one covering topics to meet requirements in the Equality Act. Books being read by the pupils include Mommy, Mama and Me, and King & King – stories about same-sex relationships and marriages.​

Parkfield’s Allah-honoring parents were none too impressed. Hence, last month, 400 mostly-Muslim moms and dads signed a petition calling for the removal of the initiative.

Protests were held in front of Parkfield, complete with signs heralding messages such as “Say no to promoting of homosexuality and LGBT ways of life to our children,” “Stop exploiting children’s innocence,” and “Education not indoctrination.”

The school called the objection “upsetting and disruptive.”

Surely more disruptive was Friday’s mass withdrawal: Approximately 600 Islamic lads and lasses, ages 4-11, were kept from school for the day in protest.

That seems to have worked.

That moment these American Muslims realize they are "Conservatives".
 
Johnny Rotten, Marky Ramone Get Heated At Punk Rock Panel

A panel discussion of punk rock’s heyday and prevailing influence on culture devolved into a shouting match between Sex Pistols front man Johnny Lydon (a.k.a. Johnny Rotten) and Ramones drummer Marky Ramone on Monday.

The event at SIR Studio in West Hollywood followed a screening of the Epix network’s upcoming docuseries, Punk.

The other panelists, Henry Rollins, Duff McKagan, L7’s Donita Sparks and producer/fashion designer John Varvatos, and the audience looked on with a mixture of shock and amusement as Lydon and Ramone assailed one another’s credibility and accomplishments for several minutes.

Panel moderator Kory Grow of Rolling Stonereports that the event started getting contentious when Lydon — a proud agitator who’s been at it for decades — began needling Rollins.

“You’ve said silly things but excellently good things, too,” Lydon proclaimed.

“And you called Black Flag a bunch of suburban rich kids and we wanted to tear your ears off,” Rollins replied.

“Yes, I did, but I didn’t like the f---ing music,” Lydon said. “It was boring!”

Lydon continued, asserting his superiority to Rollins as a front man, and bragged about how the Sex Pistols' Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols made him an enemy of the state in England.

Lydon got his hackles up again later in the panel when Ramone suggested his band inspired the late-‘70s punk movement in London. Lydon scoffed and pointed out that Ramone was “not even an original” Ramone.

Marky, who joined the Ramones in 1978, brushed off the comment, pointing out that he played drums on Richard Hell’s 1977 Blank Generation album, which he intimated was a turning point for British counterculture. “All you guys took Richard Hell’s image. That’s all you did.”

“And you’re still covering your f---ing ears,” Lydon said, in an apparent reference to Marky’s hairstyle.

“And Sid Vicious was the star,” Ramone added.

“That’s right, he was,” Lydon responded, sticking his tongue out. “He was the star for asshole fake idiots like you. Enjoy your drugs and f---in’ have a happy death.”

Lydon continued, explaining that he believed punk should be uplifting and dangerous in the eyes of politicians.

Ramone accused Lydon of being all “talk,” and not being “out in the street protesting like the MC5.”

“Look at you,” Lydon grumbled over Ramone, “you look like a heavy metal f---ing reject.”

“Sit the f--- down,” Ramone scoffed.

Dear, oh dear. Two old baldy guys arguing over a comb.

The Pistols were one of my first "favourite bands" and Lydon was a bit of a hero of mine up until I was about ten.
Shortly thereafter I realised that he's a bit of an arsehole.
His autobiography is also pretty decent and, to be fair, he acknowledges in it that he's a bit of an arsehole.
Unfortunately, in the same book he also rails against artists who "sell out". A couple of years later he was appearing in TV adverts for butter.

Having said all of that, Never Mind the Bollocks is still one of my favourite albums.
Quite like a bit of Ramones too.

In the early days punks hated metalheads, and vise versa. The hate was real. I was firmly in the metal camp and a little young to have seen the full ugliness first hand, but it was there. Motorhead is the only band I could think of both sides would claim as their own. Punks would jump metalheads that would show up at punk shows, or even go to metal shows to cause problems. Early crossover bands like DRI could have fights break out. It wasn't until mid-late 80s when Suicidal was transitioning into crossover and eventually just metal did things seem to calm down and people were starting to be allowed to like both. I didn't get into much punk at all outside "Hardcore", which isn't much. I like some Agnostic Front and a few others. I appreciate other bands like Dead Kennedys, but don't own albums. To this day there is still some heat with some jokers like Johnny Rotten. On the other end, you can get someone like Bruce Dickinson worked up to rant against Punk.

On a side note, some of the early Thrash Metal pioneers came from a punk background. Jeff Hanneman brought his punk influence to Slayer, which is one of the reasons they were so fast and different than most other metal bands at the time. Speaking of Slayer... One thing I really hate though are these modern Pop-Punk bands like Green Day. Apparently so did Slayer. They did exactly one covers album in their career, Undisputed Attitude in 1996, which was a punk cover album. They only covered the heavy side of punk, it was a jab at the (new at the time) Pop-Punk bands like Green Day. A statement that Punk should have "Undisputed Attitude" ;-)

This is Moore's "hello fellow kids" moment.

Michael Moore Desperately Grasps At Approval From AOC With Ridiculous Tweet

Reacting to a 60 Minutes clip where Pelosi once again casts shade at AOC, Moore offered that Pelosi is just salty because she doesn’t want to give up power to anyone with darker skin color than her.

https://twitter.com/x/status/1117812119154642950

As Emily Zanotti of the Daily Wire pointed out, this could be Moore desperately searching for relevancy from a section of the Democrats who he sees growing larger and larger in power every day:

Michael Moore really isn’t as powerful a voice for progressivism as he once was. His most recent movie, “Fahrenheit 11/9,” about Donald Trump’s election, was a failure at the box office and hasn’t picked up now that it’s out on DVD. His one man Broadway show, “The Terms of My Surrender,” closed to little fanfare after its initial run, when the liberal mainstay had trouble filling theater seats.​

Tack on to the fact that Moore is the exact opposite of everything he claims to be and you can see why he wishes so badly to fit in with the AOC crowd. Both he and the freshman Democrat aren’t anything they say they are and are often times the exact opposite.

AOC likes to pretend she’s a poor girl from the Bronx when really she was raised in a wealthy neighborhood and went to good schools. Moore likes to pretend he’s one with the working man and a socialist man of the people. In truth, he’s a capitalistic multimillionaire who fights hard against allowing those who work for him to unionize, and mistreats his workers to boot.
 
'Fat Sex Therapist' compares fitness trainers to Nazis, children's dieting to sexual assault

“We should be critical of the use of science and the production of knowledge to continue promoting this idea that certain bodies are fit, able, and desirable...is it my fatness that causes my high blood pressure, or is it my experience of weight stigma?" Rashatwar asked. She then connected the science suggesting that obesity is unhealthy to Nazism, saying that "fatphobic" science is “often actually eugenic science....eugenic science is Nazi science.”
 
LMMFAO! Too funny. Madonna claims the New York Times raped her, is one of the Founding Fathers of the Patriarchy!

Madonna issues furious response to controversial New York Times profile

“Im sorry i spent 5 minutes with her. It makes me feel raped. And yes I’m allowed to use that analogy having been raped at the age of 19,” Madonna added, referring to the author’s note in the article that “It didn’t feel right to explain that women these days were trying not to use that word metaphorically.”

“Further proof that the venerable N.Y.T. Is one of the founding fathers of the Patriarchy,” the artist concluded. “And I say—-DEATH TO THE PATRIARCHY woven deep into the fabric of Society. I will never stop fighting to eradicate it.”
