Incoming White House Climate Team Blames 'Systemic Racism' for Climate Change - Washington Free Beacon

A pair of top incoming White House environmental aides has blamed "systemic racism" as a driver of climate change in an attempt to justify a government-led economic overhaul.

Suppose one can't expect any kind of honesty from the Free Beacon, but they don't blame racism for climate change anywhere. That's an absurdly dishonest take.

You can read the actual statements here and nothing they say there is untrue or even remotely controversial to anyone that knows anything about the topic.

It must be very disconcerting when someone who the left can't label an "evil white supremacist nazi" calls them out and exposes what they really are.

Hey hey hey, Trump called it the "Kung Flu" on stage. Don't play this game of "his ego", he knew he was being racist and he was playing the dog whistling for all its worth.

This goes back to that very silly deflection tactic where they try to paper over any legitimate criticism of Trump's behaviour as having problems with his "ego" or "personality" or "lack of tact".

And even if one grants Moose's strange contention that racists were using it in a totally different way to Trump - what's the excuse for him continuing to use it (and variants) constantly at rallies?

And the idea that he was motivated by human rights concerns? I mean... o_O

No More Hard Questions: Biden Team Considers Banning Conservative Media from Press Briefings

I applaud this statement:

“Organizations or individuals who traffic in conspiracy theories, propaganda and lies to spread disinformation will not be tolerated,” TJ Ducklo, Biden’s deputy press secretary, said in a statement to Politico, “and we’ll work with the WHCA to decide how to handle those instances moving forward.”

About time too.


I must confess that the irony in this amused me no end



To think that someone from Fox News Radio would do such a thing.

The tell is when someone says "racism and conspiracy theory mongering is bad" and these clowns pipe up "why are you attacking us?"

A hit dog will holler...

If these lunatics want to make themselves synonymous with conservatism, that's their right, I guess.

Tucker Carlson Rails Against White Nationalist Crackdown, Warns Viewers: That's You

The Fox News personality took exception to Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff’s call to prioritize law enforcement efforts against domestic white nationalist te...

Carlson urged his viewers to “keep in mind as you listen to people talk like this” that “they’re talking about American citizens here.”

“They’re talking about you,” he added, appearing to acknowledge that white supremacists watch his show, as many Twitter users noted.

You need professional help, maybe the PTSD has kicked in. Fact is you haven't provided evidence to substantiate your fully automatic comment.

Should I be impressed that you operated an LRAc F1 or FT5. So what if you did military service, most of us did it. I'm certainly not here to talk about my military services.

9.5 out of 10 people in the world use the word "automatic" in the context of guns to describe what is technically "semi-automatic". English is funny like that.

You are no doubt well aware of this.

The implication is that your point is not a point at all. Just grandstanding and deflection. Just stop.

Obstruction boomerang: FBI knew DOJ was preparing to fire Comey long before Trump ordered it​


Rosenstein offered to wear wire on Trump, wanted fired Comey's advice on special counsel, newly declassified memos show.
Click to expand...
Newly declassified FBI memos provide startling new details that undercut the frenzied 2017 effort to investigate Donald Trump for obstruction, revealing the FBI knew Director James Comey's firing had been conceived by Justice Department leadership long before the president pulled the trigger during a key moment in the Russia probe.

The memos written in May 2017 by Acting Director Andrew McCabe and a lieutenant also provide contemporaneous proof for some of the more jaw-dropping lore of the now-discredited Russia collusion scandal.

For instance, the memos directly state that then-Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein offered to wear a wire to secretly record Trump in the Oval Office and that Rosenstein also wanted to seek Comey's advice — after his termination — on a possible Russia special counsel. The bureau nixed both ideas, the memos show.

I hope you don't fall further down your rabbit hole like he did.

Not at all disconcerting. He is a very intelligent man who bootstrapped himself into the upper echelons of academia.

He is also a Conservative in outlook and political orientation and that colors (biases) his approach (by definition) in the same way that non-Conservatives approaches are colored (biased), albeit in the opposite direction from him.

I have great respect for him; doesn't mean that I agree with everything he says (similar to how I don't agree with everything Chomsky says either).

Transcript of the above: "This is enough vaccine to fully vaccinate 300 Americans by the end of the summer, beginning of the fall. But we want to make — look, that’s — I want to repeat: It’ll be enough to fully vaccinate 300 Americans to beat this pandemic — 300 million Americans. And this is aggregate plan that doesn’t leave anything on the table or anything to chance, as we’ve seen happen in the past year. "

Funny that video clip cut off where the bold bit ends above...
