BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY
What The Parties Care Most About
By Mike Huckabee
John Edwards was right; he was just a few years early. As Matt Vespa at Townhall.com points out, now there really are “two Americas,” except one of them is solidly located in Fantasyland.
A new survey asked Americans to rank their biggest concerns, then separated them by party. Overall, the #1 concern was economic damage from COVID-19, followed by the spread of the disease, budget deficits and the national debt, school closures and lockdowns. So far, so rational.
When Republicans were asked to rank their concerns, the top issue was illegal immigration, followed by lack of support for police, high taxes, liberal media bias, moral decline of society, socialism, Antifa violence and China. Again, a reasonable list.
And now, the Democrats: their biggest worry was the spread of COVID, followed by (brace yourselves) “Trump supporters,” white nationalism, and tied for fourth place, systemic racism and the economic damage from COVID.
Our businesses are shut down, people are unemployed, kids can’t go to school, China infected the world with a virus and is now profiting off it and gaining strength, cities are plagued with leftist rioters, crime in blue cities is through the roof, constitutional rights like free speech are under heavy assault, and three of the top five worries of Democrats are white nationalism, systemic racism and those scary people who voted for the bad orange man. So congratulations, liberal media and social media: the brainwashing is working.
The poll also found increasing support for the GOP among minorities and blue collar workers, while the Democrats are increasingly becoming the party of young, far-left college students and grads. I’m not at all surprised.
This once again backs up George Orwell’s observation that there are some ideas so absurd that only an intellectual could believe them.
Must-See Interview
By Mike Huckabee
Laura Ingraham on Fox News talks to City Journal editor Chris Rufo about Buffalo, New York, public schools, which have a terrible record for teaching kids math, English and civics. But they are concentrating instead on drilling into students’ heads that America is fundamentally racist, and telling children as young as kindergarten age that all white people play a part in systemic racism.
It sounds like a great way to deflect blame for the students' problems onto racism and away from incompetent teaching. But unfortunately, it’s hardly limited to Buffalo. After watching this, you might want to check up on the curriculum of your own kids’ school, to see whether they’re being educated or just indoctrinated.
Unity And Bipartisanship Update
By Mike Huckabee
House Republicans offered 286 amendments to the massive $1.9 trillion COVID-19 stimulus bill. Democrats accepted two of them.
A Party Of Tap-Dancers
By Mike Huckabee
Biden Cabinet nominees are becoming as famous for tap-dancing away from answering questions as Fred Astaire was for just tap-dancing. Check out his HHS Secretary nominee Xavier Becerra (a Constitutional rights-shredding, far-left California Attorney General with zero experience in health and human services) trying to avoid, dip, spin and dance away from questions about why he weaponized the law to go after nuns to force them to pay for contraceptives and reporters who exposed Planned Parenthood’s barbaric abortion practices.
Another great on-campus video
By Mike Huckabee
Another great on-campus video by Campus Reform, this time from the University of Florida. When students were told that our President brushed off China’s genocide against the Uyghur people as just a different “cultural norm,” they assumed it was Trump who said that, because they’ve been taught that “Orange Man Bad.” Check out their reactions when they’re told no, it was Biden at his recent CNN townhall.
And in a related story, there must be a blue moon because a reporter actually called out a Biden official for taking credit for an effort to block a Russian pipeline that would strengthen Vladimir Putin and forced him to admit it was actually created and implemented under Trump.
Coca-Cola Follow-Up
By Mike Huckabee
Follow-up on the report of a Coca-Cola employee complaining about having to take “diversity” training that taught people to “be less white”...
Coke claims that course wasn’t mandatory (although there allegedly were emails calling it “required,” but Coke ascribed that to “miscommunication.") The beverage company claimed the anti-whiteness stuff wasn’t part of their curriculum, which just included links to Linked-In pages that happened to contain it – although those pages seem to have disappeared after the Sprite hit the fan.
Oh, and before you click the link, try to guess whose Linked-In page was hosting all that racist brainwashing masquerading as racial sensitivity training. If you've been paying attention to the professional racial division industry, you won't be surprised.
A Reader Writes Back...
"Thank you for sharing important information about two of my top three loves, God and the United States of America! The third is my wife and I'm thankful to say, she'd be boring to report on. All she does is dote on me. lol
God Bless you."
