Wokeism is Like Kudzu


................ Three Notch’d Brewery in Charlottesville until recently carried an American Pale Ale named “Ghost of the 43rd” also in honor of Mosby, but recently re-christened it “Ghost of the James.”) Repudiating the “Grey Ghost,” however, is a bit of a different animal, given that after the war Mosby served as U.S. Consul to Hong Kong as well as in posts in the U.S. Departments of Interior and Justice.

..............these same Northern Virginia elites through their pro-choice policies effect the murdering of the unborn, an evil even greater than the enslaving of our fellow man.

Wokeism is a bit like kudzu. It’s not indigenous to the South, but once it starts growing… brother you better believe it will be hard to contain. And soon enough, you’ll wonder what life was like before it infested everything.

Kudzu is pervasive south of the James River, which runs through Richmond. Wokeism, alternatively, is less common in the southern parts of the Old Dominion, but is making significant in-roads in my native Northern Virginia — and, by extension, the state government, which is increasingly dominated by NoVa politicians. And unfortunately once the NoVa technocratic elites and their demographic dominance have decided on something, it becomes a lot harder to resist.

South Carolina State House Votes To Include Firing Squad To Execution Methods & South Carolina Senate Passes Open Carry Bill

Via Billy

 

The South Carolina State House agreed on Wednesday to restore the firing squad to the state’s execution procedures.

The law, which was passed by a vote of 66-43, would require death-row prisoners to choose either a firing squad or electrocution if lethal injection medications are not accessible at the time of their scheduled execution.

The Senate passed a similar bill by a vote of 32-11 in March, which ensures the bill will most likely be sent to Republican Governor Henry McMaster, who has already stated his promise to sign it into law.

“We are one step closer to providing victims’ families and loved ones with the justice and closure they are owed by law. I will sign this legislation as soon as it gets to my desk,” McMaster tweeted after the vote.

Gun owners permitted to carry concealed weapons in the state of South Carolina are soon likely to join residents in 45 other states who can carry their hand guns openly in public — a proposal that has frustrated gun-control advocates, doctors and top law enforcement leaders but was a resounding win for many Republican lawmakers.

With three days left on the legislative calendar, the Senate voted 28-16 mostly down party lines after a more than 12-hour debate to pass H. 3094, a House-sponsored bill that would allow only concealed weapons permit holders the right to carry their hand gun in the open.

AZ Senator Issues Warning to DOJ Not to Interfere in Election Audit

   

Wendy Rogers: “'Justice’ Department – you need to stay in your lane. Do not touch Arizona ballots or machines unless you want to spend time in an Arizona prison."

Democrats are in an absolute panic over the audit taking place in Arizona.

Biden has empowered his DOJ to the point that they think they can do as they please.

At this point in time, it’s clear that they intend to try and prevent the AZ election audit completely.
One State Senator is standing up against that corruption though.

Biden Discriminates Against White Farmers Who Sue After Being Denied Aid Just for Being White

Wisconsin  Farmer Adam Faust joined Tucker Carlson (video below) to discuss the Biden administration focusing on ‘socially disadvantaged farmers. The problem is no white farmers are allowed to be ‘socially disadvantaged and are excluded from aid: According to a lawsuit, filed in federal court in Green Bay, Wisconsin by five white farmers, the American Rescue Plan provides $4 billion to forgive loans for socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers. But “socially disadvantaged,” the lawsuit alleges, are only those who are Black, American Indian, Hispanic, Alaskan native, Asian American or Pacific Islander, not white.

Victor Davis Hanson lists 10 ways Americans becoming 'Sovietized'

 Via Billy

 

'There was no escape from ideological indoctrination – anywhere.

The changes have come on America abruptly, and many with the election in 2016 of Donald Trump as president. And they're becoming amplified under President Joe Biden.

They include ideological campaigns that require a single-point of view from everyone, public character attacks on those who dare to disagree, a unified government/media voice, spying on opinions, and more.

They are signs that, just perhaps, Americans are becoming "Sovietized," according to Victor Davis Hanson, a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution.

In a commentary this week, he lists 10 "symptoms of Sovietism"

A New York father of a nine-year-old who moved his family to Florida after he had blasted a private New York school for allegedly teaching his daughter Critical Race Theory told Fox News regarding Florida schools, “These schools never heard of Critical Race Theory, they don’t teach the Critical Race Theory. They don’t know about it.”

Harvey Goldman added to Fox News host Tucker Carlson, “These children go to a park and they want to play. They don’t care what color the other kids are. They care that they’re having fun.”
