And the Beat Goes On
[Aspen Beat] The satirical Babylon Bee, now the country's Newspaper of Record since the New York Times went full Mad Magazine, reported that Trump plans to impose tariffs and travel bans on CHAZ. Because he's racist.

Barrack Obama is not. So he's planning to ship pallets of $100 bills of taxpayer money to the new nation in exchange for their vague promise that they might not build nuclear weapons for a little while.

OK, I made that last one up. But you weren't really sure, were you?

My Turn - Adam Lovinger: 'Anatomy of the Deep State' (lengthy video)
[My Turn] In a frank, free-flowing discussion, Adam Lovinger talks about his case; the plans General Flynn had for the intelligence community and why he was so feared by Obama holdovers; the Gramscian nature of the Obama administration and how that changed our government and how it affect us today; where are some of the bodies buried; and lays out a strategy for defeating the entrenched corrupt bureaucracy we call the Deep State.

Chick-fil-A CEO Tells White Americans to Shine Black People's Shoes as a Show of Humility
[RedState] Move over, kneeling — now there’s something meatier.

Or, at least, more involved.

On Sunday, something unusual took place.

During a discussion on race among Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy, Pastor Louie Giglio, and Christian rapper Lecrae at Atlanta’s Passion City Church, Dan encouraged white people to repent of their racism.

As reported by The Buck Sexton Show, the son of chicken-chain founder S. Truett Cathy signaled a call to non-melanated America:

"We as caucasians, until we’re willing to just pick up the baton and fight for our black, African-American brothers and sisters — which they are as one human race — we’re shameful. We’re just adding to it."

#1  I wont to see Black Community leaders apologizing to relatives of the white victims of black criminals.

#2  No thanks. I will pick my own cotton make my own chicken sandwiches from now on.

#3  The old truism that the wealth created by the first generation is all squandered by the third generation is right on schedule for the Cathys.

#4  WOKE admonitions from the Dan's Lake Jodeco boat house? But, but, but I read somewhere that "we have all fallen short"....or was it just white people ?

#10  Chick-Fil-A keeps giving me more reasons not to eat their food.
Posted by: DarthVader || 06/19/2020 8:52 Comments || Top||

#11  Chick-fil-A can close the other six days of the week, too, for all I care.
Posted by: Clem || 06/19/2020 8:54 Comments || Top||

#12  Not one close by so hadn't had opportunity to patronize: was supportive of their causes. Till now. Back to KFC.

#13  I'm so busy I barely have time to shine my own shoes. I think I'll pass on this suggestion, and pass on Chick-Fil-A as well. Asshats.
Posted by: Crusader || 06/19/2020 9:53 Comments || Top||

#14  No. Also, Hell No.
Posted by: Iblis || 06/19/2020 10:48 Comments || Top||

#15  There is a difference between humility and submission.

Also, is it cultural appropriation for people of African heritage to wear Western-style shoes? Asking for a friend.
Posted by: SteveS || 06/19/2020 12:05 Comments || Top||

#16  I don't even owe humility. Neither does anyone else.
Posted by: M. Murcek || 06/19/2020 12:47 Comments || Top||

#17  Quite telling of Mr. Cathy.

Do go on, what are other traditional black chores, other than shoe shining and eating chicken of course, and about the expected footwear of those you would associate with - light loafers perhaps?

#18  Just in time for my changeover to fixed income. That'll be another $10+ that I won't be spending.

#19  We as caucasians, until we’re willing to just pick up the baton and fight for our black, African-American brothers and sisters

Ask the mayor of Olympia how it worked out for her.
