DeSantis Rapid Response Director wants to make illegal immigration easier; supports Ukraine war.

The National Pulse: WATCH: DeSantis Spox Demands Citizenship for Illegal Migrant ‘Dreamers’ Who She is ‘In Favor Of’.

Christina Pushaw, “Rapid Response Director” for Ron DeSantis’s 2024 presidential campaign, recently argued that immigration “has been a net positive thing for the country,” and that she is “in favor of Dreamers” – the class of illegal migrant championed by President Barack Obama.

Pushaw stated in an unearthed Zoom call (below) that immigration does “not need to be better enforced, or regulated,” but rather, that “the law needs to be better because right now it’s extremely difficult to immigrate legally even for qualified people, even for people who are working hard which many undocumented immigrants do by the way: they work and they pay taxes.”
[.]
This follows the recent reports of Pushaw doubling down on her strong support of Volodymyr Zelensky and the war in Ukraine.

She wouldn't be saying this, would she, if DeSantis didn't agree and support these positions?

The Immigration process should be difficult. Yet, she favors Obama's easing of immigration policy and she supports Zelensky and Ukraine.

If this isn't an Atomic Wake-Up Call for supporters of DeSantis I don't know what is.

"Hard Road", Rod Stewart from 1974's Smiler.

Trivia: one of the co-writers of "Hard Road" is George Young, (deceased) the older brother of Angus and (late) Malcolm Young, of AC/DC.

Clay Travis: AM Radio's Joy Behar.

I'm not planning a certain number of installments or series of the New Never Trumper (NNT) Neocons vs Diehard DeSantis Supporters (DDS), but if you missed it, you can read the first post HERE.

Tuning in to "The Clay and Buck Show" for a while today is what prompted this post.

Rush Limbaugh must be perpetually rolling in his grave. I gave "Clay and Buck" 2 years, listening on and off. Buck Sexton is at least circumspect. From the start, and even before this duo replaced Rush, I never cared for Clay Travis. He's AM Radio's Joy Behar.

Recap of Clay Behar's last two years, condensed version: 

"Isn't 'Jaws' the most scariest movie ever?"

"It's a donnybrook."

"Buck, I can't believe you've never filled out a Final Four bracket!"

"Would you rather be killed by a alligator, a lion or a bear?"

"(Any possible sports analogy that can be made)."

"This reminds me of (insert name of movie here), when (insert whatever happened in the movie) and it's so scary!"

"Did you watch the game between (insert sportsball team names here) and it's just like what's happening in politics."

"But Buck, what about 'Jaws'?"

"It's A DOOOOOOOOOONYBROOOOOOOOOOOOOOK!"

On Wednesday's program a Trump supporting caller named Jay ripped both hosts, Clay more than Buck, regarding the drumbeat of Clay Behar's status as a NNT.

Rush could take something complex and break it down into a few succinct, understandable sentences. Clay Behar drones on and on as if the more he talks the more understandable it is or that it makes him sound more intellectual.

It's easy to tell Clay Behar's NNT attitude. This is common among people who previously supported Trump but now, for whatever reasons, dislike Trump. "He can't win," they say.

Clay Behar and Buck were invited by President Donald Trump to do their program from Mar A Lago one day a few months ago. A week later, Clay Behar is dissing all over Trump. Why? Who knows. Ratings?

 

FWIW, yes, there are times I wish Trump would direct his energy and criticism at more deserving people and politicians rather than some of the people he targets who aren't worth the time and effort. That said, Trump is Trump. Criticism from NNTs isn't going to make Trump adjust his demeanor.

What I do know is this: The Bush, Koch and Cheney families, Mittens and Paul Ryan aren't supporting Trump. That's all I need to know to support Trump 2024.

The NNT's saying, "Trump can't win," becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Who would want these types of people coaching their child's baseball or soccer team? "You can't win, you're going to lose." How uplifting and motivational.

Had it not been for Trump's support and endorsing DeSantis, Florida might've had Charlie Crist for governor.

Does Trump's personality really matter?

Did you like his policies? 

Did you like a gallon of gasoline priced at $1.87? 

Did you like that he's the only president to tell NATO, the UN, the WHO and the EU to GF themselves? 

Did you disapprove that he withdrew the U.S. from the ridiculous Paris Climate Accord?

Do you prefer the economy and prices where they're at now, or under Trump's term? 

Did you not enjoy a relatively calm four year international break from escalating military conflicts that we have today? 

Did you dislike that Trump decreased the amount of money the U.S. gives in foreign aid?

If Trump is the Republican candidate, I'd like to believe most DeSantis supporters will bite their tongue and vote for Trump. I don't believe a significant amount of Trump supporters will turnout in high numbers and vote for DeSantis.

Which may leave us with four more years under the puppet-masters of Biden. Okay with me. Let it all burn. Fire is cleansing. The only satisfaction will be listening to the NNTs whining regret over not supporting and voting for Trump.

Welcome to your Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Trump can't win!

Stay tuned. More to come on other days on this Epic NNT - DDS Bataille Royale.

Kohl’s Is the Latest Target.

WSJ: Kohl’s Is the Latest Target.

Kohl’s stock is down 5% on Tuesday after a social media blitz called for a boycott of the department store based on its Pride Month merchandise.

The customer backlash follows a similar controversy at Target, where social media users criticized the retailer’s assortment of Pride Month products, including a transgender-friendly swimsuit. Videos tagged with #boycottkohls had about 280,000 views on TikTok as of Tuesday.

Newsweek: Kohl's Faces Boycott Calls Over LGBT+ Baby Clothes.

[ALX on Twitter] wrote: "In case you need clothes for Your Gay or Trans 3 month old, Kohl's has you covered." This message was viewed more than half a million times and received over 1,400 retweets.

The Newsweek story, by  James Bickerton, describes this as, "Right-wingers initiated campaigns against Target over its sale of LGBTQ+ inclusive children's clothes, and Bud Light in response to its partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney."

I've never seen a story where a boycott promoted by Liberals is described as, "Left-wingers initiated a boycott of....", ... whatever.

Heh...The Left, the original proponents of Cancel Culture, gets a taste of its own and they snowflake out.

A comment on the video from You Tube: "Rick Nielson [sic] breaks out his custom 5 neck Hamer guitar for this video. He's criminally underrated as a guitar player and as a songwriter."

“Rick’s out of his mind, but in a wonderful way. By 1981, we had already done some pretty wacky stuff for him[.], [said, Hamer’s Frank Untermeyer.]

"For this guitar, we cut apart five double-cutaway Hamer Special bodies and laminated them together, and then sanded in between the necks to get that sort of swoopy look. As I recall, routing the wires through this thing was also a huge pain in the ass.”

Target's VP of brand management is treasurer at LGBTQ group that pushes school districts to allow children to secretly change gender.

Daily Mail: REVEALED: Target's VP of brand management is treasurer at LGBTQ group that pushes school districts to allow children to secretly change gender: Company donated $2.1 million to organization.

A marketing executive at Target also serves as the treasurer of a LGBT organization which receives millions of dollars from the retailer and advocates allowing trans and nonbinary school students to keep their gender identity secret from parents.

Carlos Saavedra, 43, is Target's vice president for brand management and also volunteers as a director at GLSEN, which supports LGBTQ youth in schools.

Details of Saavedra's role at GLSEN come as Target's donations to the organization were placed under the spotlight following a backlash to the retailer's Pride month range, which includes 'tuck-friendly' women's swimwear.

Target has reportedly donated $2.1 million to GLSEN, whose policies include ensuring school staff should 'ensure that all personally identifiable and medical information relating to transgender and nonbinary students is kept confidential'.

GLSEN's policy said this should include withholding the information from 'parents or guardians... unless the student has authorized such disclosure'. Critics say the policy 'violates [a parents'] right to parent their own children]'.

 .

No conflict of interest here between Target and Saaverda's organization and no attempts at grooming going on, not at all.

DHL's Indy 500 Pride car fails early.

One might say it petered, or bottomed, out early. 

Yahoo: Romain Grosjean crashes out of Indy 500 for second straight season.

For the second time in as many years, Romain Grosjean’s Indianapolis 500 came to an early end.

Grosjean, in just his second attempt at the 500, was running in the 25th position when his car lost control at the exit of Turn 2 and slammed the outside wall.

The No. 28 DHL Honda then slid down the racetrack and came to a rest in the infield grass area. Grosjean climbed out of his car unhurt but, once again, his dreams of being an Indy 500 champion were dashed.

Mayhem at the diner.

Don't know the backstory. Added the audio. Note the guy getting hit on the head with a chair at ~.41 seconds. He's hurtin'! 

What can go wrong?

Uber: Teen accounts on Uber.

Teen accounts are the only authorized way for teens aged 13-17 to use the Uber platform with consent from their legal guardian. Guardians who add a teen account to their Family profile will be notified every time their teen requests a ride—and they’ll get real-time alerts plus live trip tracking so they can follow their teen’s ride in the app, from pickup to dropoff.

Before a teen can request their first ride, they must complete a safety onboarding process that teaches them about the safety features that are available to them on every ride.

Guardians will receive tips on how to prepare their teen for their first ride after the teen sets up their account. Guardians will also have access to live trip tracking and will receive status updates for every trip their teen requests. They’ll also be able to contact you directly during the trip.
[.]
To help you easily identify teen rides, your offer card will read “UberX Teen.” If you see this, it means the trip request is from an official teen account holder—so there should be no surprises at pickup.

Notifications, an onboarding process, real-time alerts and live trip tracking. 

Well, there it is. An un-hackable idea and program that can't be manipulated by bad actors. 

The driver kidnapper confirms possession of your teen in real-time. "Thank you for choosing Uber as the abductor of your child." 🤣

A Stanford professor who has researched unidentified aerial phenomena for the US government says he believes extraterrestrial intelligence has not only visited earth but “it’s been here a long time and it’s still here”.

Dr Garry Nolan also claimed that whistleblowers who have worked on “reverse-engineering downed craft” had recently given classified testimony to Congress, creating a “hornet’s nest in Washington”.

During the session, moderator Alex Klokus, founder and managing partner of Salt Fund, asked Dr Nolan, “Do you believe that extraterrestrial intelligence has visited planet earth?”

“I think you can go a step further — it hasn’t just visited, it’s been here a long time and it’s still here,” Dr Nolan replied.

Oops. Human error turns Nassau County Republicans to Democrats.

NBC New York: Human Error Turns Every Registered Nassau County Voter Democrat.

A spokesperson called it "an isolated event, but we apologize for our mistake, especially to Nassau County officials, who bear no responsibility for this problem[.]"

A mistake listing every Nassau County registered voter as blue had many — especially Republicans — seeing red.

Many voters in the GOP-leaning Long Island county got their voter ID cards in the mail on Tuesday, and a half-million who got their cards saw a pretty glaring typo: All the cards say voters are registered Democrats, when in fact they might be Republican, independent or members of another political party.

And with the primary a month away, the mistake is sparking confusion.

[...] now the mistake has led to many unhappy people.

"There’s a lot of confusion, there’s a lot of people emotionally upset about this," said [Nassau County Executive Bruce] Blakeman.

So who is to blame? Blakeman pointed fingers at the printing company, Phoenix Graphics out of Rochester, which was hired by the county’s Board of Elections.
 
The printing company said it was a human error and is now apologizing. A spokesperson called it "an isolated event, but we apologize for our mistake, especially to Nassau County officials, who bear no responsibility for this problem."

State Department apologizes for causing pronoun butthurt.

Washington Free Beacon: State Department Offers Counseling To Misgendered Employees Triggered By Email Pronoun Debacle.

The State Department will offer counseling to any employee "who feels hurt or upset" by a system-wide email glitch that temporarily assigned random and often incorrect gender pronouns to staff.

The State Department is offering free therapy to "any employee who feels hurt or upset as a result of this unfortunate mistake," according to an internal email that went out to employees on Friday. Many State Department employees were "triggered" on Thursday, when emails from colleagues suddenly began to include random pronouns, like, "She/her/hers" and "He/Him/His" in the "from" line.

The pronouns were randomly assigned, with men being given female pronouns and vice versa, due to a "pronoun glitch" in the department’s system, the Washington Free Beacon first reported.

Those upset by the misgendering are encouraged to contact the State Department’s Employee Consultation Service "to speak to a professional counselor."

"I want to stress that the intent behind making this feature available is to make our systems more inclusive and provide employees with options—not to make decisions for them," Kelly E. Fletcher, the State Department’s chief information officer, wrote in the email. "I recognize that this error had the opposite effect, and again, I am very sorry."

RT: US State Department offers counseling to staff after ‘pronoun glitch’. 

In a tweet later on Thursday, State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said that “issues with user profiles on Microsoft Outlook” had caused the error.

State Department blames MS Outlook user profiles? 🤣 Sure, why not?

I'm very upset over this misuse of pronouns. Where do I go for my free therapy and, hopefully, benzos?

Boys know what to do with tampon dispensers in their bathrooms.

Not The Bee: This high school put tampon dispensers in the boys' bathrooms. You'll be so proud of how the boys responded.

Boys don't menstruate, so it's silly and ridiculous to put tampons and other female products in their bathrooms. Transgender activists have been pushing for this for years, though, because it helps spread the gender ideology cult, particularly among young people.

But the boys at Lakeridge High School in Lake Oswego, Oregon, want you to know that they are not going to put up with it:

Boys in the boys restroom at Lakeridge High School in Lake Oswego, OR are showing the school how they feel about having feminine hygiene dispensers in their space. Honestly, what did the @ORHouseDems and the school expect? This is a complete joke and a waste of education funds,…

The school, meanwhile, has been reduced to pathetically whining about the whole thing:

    In the last weeks, we have been combating vandalism in the boy's bathrooms. Students have been taking the tampon dispensers down and placing them inside the toilets. We would like your help in stopping this form of vandalism.

Armed Forces Day.

Military.com: Armed Forces Day.

Among the many military holidays celebrated each year is Armed Forces Day. Celebrated the third Saturday in May, Armed Forces Day falls during Military Appreciation Month and joins Memorial Day, Military Spouse Appreciation Day, and Victory in Europe Day (V-E Day) as another May military-themed holiday.

The History of Armed Forces Day:

On Aug. 31, 1949, Defense Secretary Louis Johnson announced the creation of an Armed Forces Day to replace separate Army, Navy and Air Force Days. The single-day celebration stemmed from the unification of the armed forces under one agency -- the Department of Defense.
[.]
The first Armed Forces Day was celebrated by parades, open houses, receptions, and air shows. In Washington, D.C., 10,000 troops of all branches of the military, cadets and veterans marched past the president and his party. 

National Today: Armed Forces Day, May 20, 2023. 

Armed Forces Day is a special holiday for people all over the world to come together and thank the men and women of the United States Armed Forces. First conceived by President Harry S. Truman, the holiday was established in 1949. The creation of a single day celebration for all five branches of the United States military made sense due to its recent unification under the Department of Defense. Today, Armed Forces Day is celebrated on the third Saturday of every May, this year falling on May 20. Be sure to mark your calendar & support our military!

Three stories from the Daily Mail. Ice cream truck near Auschwitz provokes fury, Cocaine dealer freed by Obama shoots woman leaving her brain dead, $2B wasted by U.S. on Coof vaccines.

Daily Mail: Ice cream van sets up... outside AUSCHWITZ: Fury over 'disrespectful'.

An ice cream van has sparked outrage after setting up shop outside the former Nazi death camp Auschwitz.

The van which also sells waffles has been condemned as 'tasteless and 'disrespectful' by the Auschwitz Museum after it appeared outside the camp's main entrance known as the 'Death Gate'.
[.]
However, it is located outside the protection zone of the Monument to the Holocaust, so unfortunately we have no influence on it.

Some selected comments from the DM story:

It's fucking ice cream, not Waffle Cones in the likeness of Hitler and the van is set-up outside the protection zone. 

We'll probably learn that the ice cream van is owned by a Jew and all the kvetching will be for naught, just as it was when Jews had a fit over the auction of Hitler's wristwatch only to be silent when it was revealed that it was a wealthy Jew that bought it for over $1M.

Daily Mail: Cocaine dealer whose life sentence was commuted by Obama in 2015 is charged with shooting female passenger during road rage incident and leaving her BRAIN-DEAD.

A convicted cocaine dealer, who was given a second chance when his life sentence was commuted by former President Obama in 2015 is back in prison on attempted murder charges after he shot a woman, leaving her brain-dead, cops say. 

Alton Mills, 54, last made the news when Obama cut short his life sentence in 2015 after serving 22 years in jail for what were small time drugs offenses.

He received an sentence after being arrested in 1993 on federal conspiracy charges as part of a crack cocaine conspiracy.

His two previous convictions of possession of less than five grams of crack cocaine led to prosecutors filing a sentence enhancement, which saw him sentenced to life in prison without parole.

But he is now looking at another possible life sentence following an expressway shooting early on Sunday morning in the suburbs of Chicago. The victim, who has not been identified, is not expected to survive.

No surprise Total POS Dick Durbin (D-IL) had his fingers in this; the man who called U.S. Soldiers, "Nazis," and compared them to the Gulag and Pol Pot.

Yet despite the figures and dwindling demand, the World Health Organization has called for new Covid shots to be developed for this winter that target mutated variants.

"You're the First, the Last, My Everything" by Barry White, from 1974's Can't Get Enough.

Various bios and articles on Barry note he smoked between 7-8 packs of cigarettes/day. Man...I give him nothing but Props for that.  IMHO, one of the Top Ten greatest voices to grace the music industry. He totally owned the deep bass-baritone voice.

An interesting life. White began serving his first jail sentence at age 16 for stealing $30K of Cadillac tires. He had fathered two children by age 16. He did not know how to read or write music. Turned his life around after release from jail.

Hilton Hotel manager arrested for waking up guest by sucking on his toes.

David Neal

WHIO-TV (Yahoo): Hilton Hotel manager arrested for waking up guest by sucking on his toes.

A Hilton Hotel manager was arrested and charged Friday for entering a guest’s room and sucking on the customer’s toes.

David Neal, 52, was charged with aggravated burglary and assault for entering a male guest’s room and sucking on his toes Thursday, March 30.

Nashville Police were dispatched shortly after 5 a.m. to 121 4th Avenue South, where a Hilton Hotel resides, a spokesperson for the city’s police department stated.

While investigating a complaint, officers discovered that Neal, working as a night manager at the time, made a key card and entered the guest’s room.

The guest then woke up to find Neal sucking on his toes, which he immediately confronted.

The guest recognized Neal because the day before, he came into the room with another employee to fix an issue with the television, the spokesperson informed.

Neal claimed that he entered the room because he smelled smoke and was checking on the victim. However, the night manger did not report this issue to security. Furthermore, no other resident reported smelling smoke.

When officers asked where the room key was, Neal replied that he threw it away, the spokesperson said. The room key was never recovered.

Nashville Police Central Precinct detectives led the investigation and issued warrants against Neal.

He was arrested at his Lebanon, Tennessee, residence.

Neal is currently in jail, to be released on a $27,000 bond.

"The guest then woke up to find Neal sucking on his toes, which he immediately confronted." As opposed to what...waiting 10 minutes? 🤣
