[Breitbart] Baroness Nadine de Rothschild, the widow of deceased banker Edmond de Rothschild, has denounced the MeToo movement, attacking it as making men “soft” and women “charmless”.
The MeToo movement has had a disastrous effect on both men and women, Baroness Nadine de Rothschild has argued, denouncing the movement as having left men “soft” and women “charmless”.
De Rothschild is the latest major figure in French high society to denounce the movement, with a number of influential women in the country banding together back in 2018 to denounce the movement as an attack on male “gallantry”.
In an interview with Le Parisien, De Rothschild — who married into the powerful banking family years after running away from home and working in a car factory and then as a model — described the MeToo movement as having had a major negative effect on both sexes.
“[Today’s men are] too soft, don’t know how to take risks, don’t dare to say anything anymore,” she opined, while she says modern women “totally lack charm” as a result of the movement.
In a separate interview, De Rothschild emphasised the value of charm for women, saying that without it, even those with education will not succeed.
“There are women who have all the diplomas on earth but who don’t succeed because they are bad-natured and are in a sulk from the early morning,” she said, but adding for the sake of clarity that charm is a separate quality that should not be conflated with beauty or the ability to seduce.
“Charm is about smiling and being in a good mood,” she described. “Beauty has nothing to do with it… I get up in a good mood, I go to bed in a good mood, no matter what problems I might have.”
Though her criticisms of the movement, along with modern-day feminism as a whole, are likely to anger many of the country’s progressives, de Rothschild’s view is not all that uncommon in France.
Senior figures from across French society have not been shy about denouncing the #MeToo movement, with many seeing it as an attack on the country’s culture and way of life.
One of these individuals is actress Catherine Deneuve, who led a large group of notable women in France in resisting the movement back in 2018.
“Rape is a crime. But insistent or clumsy flirting is not a crime, nor is gallantry a chauvinist aggression,” a letter penned by the actress along with over 100 other notable women from entertainment, publishing and academia read.
“Men have been punished summarily, forced out of their jobs when all they did was touch someone’s knee or try to steal a kiss,” the letter continued, describing the movement to cancel men for minor sexual infractions as a “witch-hunt” that threatens sexual freedom.
“We agree that sexual violence is a crime but insistent or clumsy chatting up is not an offence,” the letter also read. “Instead of helping women this frenzy to send these (male chauvinist) ‘pigs’ to the abattoir actually helps the enemies of sexual liberty – religious extremists and the worst sort of reactionaries.”

The #Metoo movement was a weaponized movement to take out Kavanaugh and conservatives. Fortunately, it morphed into free for all taking out its sponsors as much as anyone else. That's the danger with the deep projection on the Left's part.

Commentary by blogger Bolhovich. Link found via V Kontakte, Russian socialist media.
He died not for Soviet power, which he did not like, but for the Russian land.
The future oldest Hero of the Soviet Union in history still found serfdom!
Matvey Matveyevich Kuzmin was born in 1858 into the family of a serf, three years before the fateful Manifesto of the Tsar-Liberator
Alexander II.
The future hero ran the household on his own and was not a member of the collective farm. He lived on the outskirts, on the outskirts of the forest, and did not particularly favor the new government. He caught fish, went hunting, bartered the rest from the peasants of the Rassvet collective farm. Some of the older locals called Kuzmin a biryuk, and the collective farm youth called the individual farmer, who spoiled all the reporting of the latter for the entire region, "counter". Biryuk translates into "Lone Wolf," but it also could mean twisted lily, a bit of Russian gallows humor.
On August 26, 1941, the Germans came to the village of Kurakino. At the school where Kuzmin’s grandchildren also studied, the local commandant’s office began to work, and the commandant himself chose Kuzmin’s hut, evicting the intractable old man and his family in a barn (“counterpart” the position of local headman was offered to the first, but he refused, citing advanced age).
On February 14, 1942, the battalion of the 1st Mountain Rifle Division, stationed in Kurakino, was tasked with breaking through to the rear of the Red Army, thereby facilitating the counteroffensive in the area of the Malkin Heights. The battalion commander demanded that Kuzmin lead his battalion to the village of Pershino. The demand was reinforced by the offer of several thousand rubles, as well as flour, kerosene, and an excellent Sauer hunting rifle with the famous "three rings" logo.
Like another Russian peasant named Susanin, who in the winter of 1613 agreed to lead the Polish invaders to the house of the young Tsar Mikhail Romanov, Matvey Kuzmin also agreed. Having accurately recognized the proposed route on the map, he immediately sent his grandson to Pershino to warn the Soviet troops, and assigned them a place for an ambush near the village of Malkino.
The old hunter led the Germans for a long time along a roundabout road and finally at dawn led them directly to an ambush, where the 2nd battalion of the 31st Separate Cadet Rifle Brigade (Colonel S.P. Gorbunov) of the Kalinin Front, which then occupied the defense on the Malkinsky heights in area of the villages of Makaedovo, Malkino and Pershino. The German battalion came under machine gun fire and suffered heavy losses (more than 50 killed and 20 captured). The people's avenger himself was killed by the German commander.
The feat of the 83-year-old hero was included in the evening report of the Soviet Information Bureau of February 24, 1942. Pravda correspondent Boris Polevoy was working in Gorbunov's brigade just at that time; his essay "The Last Day of Matvey Kuzmin" was even included in the elementary school curriculum.
Matvey Matveyevich was first buried in his native village Kurakino. In 1954, a solemn reburial of the remains of the hero took place at the fraternal cemetery of the city of Velikiye Luki.
[St. Louis Jewish Life] Throughout its nearly 95-year history, the Nation of Islam has been "notorious for its antisemitism, homophobia and anti-white bigotry," the Southern Poverty Law Center notes.
The Chicago-headquartered religious group has "a consistent record of antisemitism and bigotry," and its leader Louis Farrakhan has said contemporary Jews are "not really Jews but are in fact Satan" and "the enemy of God and the enemy of the righteous," among many antisemitic statements, the Anti-Defamation League adds.
The sixth most-populous U.S. state and its Jewish governor appear to have missed the memo. In 2021 and 2022, Illinois shelled out half a million dollars to the Nation of Islam, and it is slated to fund the hate group another half a million this year. This support in taxpayer monies comes at a time when antisemitic incidents in the U.S. have hit an all-time high.
Chicago has had its share recently of synagogue desecrations, vandalism and violent attacks against Jews, and Gov. J.B. Pritzker and other Jewish state lawmakers have been targets of antisemitism.
Yet a report by Focus on Western Islamism—a project of the Middle East Forum—revealed that Illinois is paying out substantial amounts of money to a group that is inspired by the Nation of Islam.
Susannah Johnston, an investigative reporter for the one-year-old site, which Daniel Pipes publishes, found via public records that the Build Illinois Bond Fund—established by the state in the mid-’80s to promote economic development—gave $500,000 to the Coalition for the Remembrance of Elijah Muhammad (CROE) in 2021 and 2022. The state intends to give another $500,000 to that group this year.
Muhammad, who died in 1975 and was a disciple of Nation of Islam founder Fard Muhammad, has his own hateful track record. The Nation of Islam leader, who appointed Farrakhan, "promoted the idea that white people were created by an evil Black scientist and that Black people are the superior race," according to the ADL.
A man who answered the phone at the Coalition for the Remembrance of Elijah Muhammad but did not give his name said the coalition is "the archives for the Nation of Islam."

[Breitbart] The only plausible tool to remedy President Biden’s illegal border migration is for the GOP to insert clear rules in Congress’ complex spending bills during the fall, House judiciary chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) said Thursday.
“The way our system works is: When you have a split government, you have to [win] on the appropriations bills,” Jordan told a committee hearing held in Arizona.
But many establishment Republicans won critical slots in the spending panels, as top GOP leaders zig-zag between their voters and their donors.
For example, the House appropriations committee is dominated by pro-establishment Republicans. Many of those Republicans voted for rural-economy amnesty, and are backed by the business-run Congressional Leadership Fund or by major Wall Street investors, such as Blackstone.
The committee includes pro-migration GOP members, such as Rep. Dan Newhouse (R-WA), and Rep. Juan Ciscomani (R-AZ). Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX), Rep. Andy Harris (R-MD), Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL), Rep. Tom Cole (R-OK), and Rep. Michael Simpson (R-ID). The homeland security subcommittee is headed by David Joyce (R-OH), who voted for the farm labor amnesty bill in 2021.
A 54 percent majority of Americans say Biden is allowing a southern border invasion, according to an August 2022 poll commissioned by the left-of-center National Public Radio (NPR). The 54 percent “Invasion” majority included 76 percent of Republicans, 46 percent of independents, and even 40 percent of Democrats.

Appropriations is not a path to force the Executive to spend the money wisely or effectively. Having the immigration disaster be the number one issue for 2024 will force the Dem hand. All the media and pollsters will work to make that not happen.

This article is the first of a series of articles explaining why President Obama enlisted the federal government’s national security and justice agencies to make sure Lt. General Michael Flynn never served as President Trump’s national security advisor. In September 2011, Flynn was promoted to Lieutenant General and assigned as assistant director of national intelligence in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI). On April 17, 2012, President Barack Obama nominated Flynn to be the 18th director of DIA. On April 30, 2014, President Obama forced Flynn to retire because Flynn had collected sufficient intelligence on Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to charge Obama and Clinton with high crimes and misdemeanors. The premise of this article series is that as Trump’s national security director in the White House, Flynn would have pursued President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for "High Crimes and Misdemeanors" over their illegal, clandestine supplying of weapons to terrorists in Libya. This series of articles draws on reporting Jerome Corsi previously published in World Net Daily [WND.com] in 2011-2015, when he worked at WND.com as a senior staff reporter.
Why did Barack Obama turn against Muammar Gaddafi?
The answer may be deceptively simple: The moment that Gaddafi became inconvenient to al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood, Gaddafi became inconvenient to Obama.

/\ Flynn wanted to expand the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) clandestine service capabilities in order to fill existing intelligence shortfalls (intelligence gaps). Both Flynn and his deputy were sacked. The Silver Bullet was brought back under control. Burger grill Wednesday resumed.

So, his good outweighed his bad? Not buying it.

Ref #4: Flynn was up for kidnapping Gulen from USA to be executed in Turkey. A good guy? Not so much...
Flynn was aware of the Klingon Erdoğan-Gulen 'regime change' replacement scheme. Flynn was right. The Turkish Army 2016 coup d'état ended in a mini-Bay of Pigs klusterfok.
Flynn was and remains a friend of Donald Trump and more importantly, an enemy of the Deep State.

I didn't find any connections with Turkiye while he was on active duty, but Flynn sure got around. I wonder if he bumped into Hunter somewhere along the way, lol.

The "Nobody but Trump" crowd is chapping my ass. I don't care who his "supporters" are. Most of them have stabbed him in the back. Says more about him than them.

My sense is Flynn as National Security Advisor to Trump was in a position to use what he knew about Obama and Clinton misdeeds in specific, the Deep State overall, and the farce of Russia-Gate and political corruption within the intel establishment and the Five-Eyes/NSA/FBI/CIA information exchange circumventions of US law. He was a threat to so many players, there was a perfect storm to take him out almost as soon as he was installed. His continued silence tells me there is residual, high-cost risk even now to his speaking out.
