So much hypocrisy, so little space


Jane Fonda on saving the planet: Last year, Fonda sold her 7,102-square-footBeverly Hills mansion for $8.5 million. To replace the mansion, “the environmentalist activist went all the way down from a 7,102 square foot mansion to a 6,679 square foot luxury townhouse. The $5.8 million three-story home has 4 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and a semi-subterranean three car garage which no doubt only stock Teslas. The master suite has its own fireplace, two walk-in closets, a marble bathroom, and its own balcony. There are staff quarters for the servants. And an elevator for a convenient way to get around the three-story condo.

Every now and then, Fonda flies to Washington, D.C., and gets arrested while protesting to save the Earth. She urges other protesters to “take the next step beyond individual actions to reduce our carbon footprint.”

Other lovely and fabulous people were also arrested.

“Ted Danson, who last year bought a second compound next to his first compound in Santa Monica with a walk-in wine cellar (don’t call it a cave), he already owns a cottage in Nashville, a ten-acre place in California, and a six-acre multi-residence spread on Martha’s Vineyard. The Cheers star and blackface impresario is naturally concerned about the environment. He owns so much of it.

“Brooklyn Decker, the Sports Illustrated model, also came to D.C. to fight for the environment. Decker and her husband have two homes, a 7,300 square foot mansion in West Austin, Texason 15 acres of land with an infinity pool, and the other, a 4-acre spread with 7 bedrooms in North Carolina.


There is more good stuff. Fonda outdoes herself.

The thing is, those people have no idea of their measure of stupid or hypocrisy. They are incapable of knowing anything outside their own spheres.

Progressive Church Bans 'Jesus Loves The Little Children' For Suggesting Jesus Loves White Kids

PORTLAND, OR—Freelove Community Church has announced its children's ministry will no longer be singing classic song "Jesus Loves The Little Children" for its "problematic implication" that Jesus also loves white kids.

"Red, yellow, brown, black and WHITE? Excuse me!?!" said children's minister Taser Von Queesha as she looked over Sunday's agenda. "Nu-unh, not on my watch. We are dismantling white supremacy patriarchy one kids' Bible song at a time."

Some church members just wanted to change the lyrics to "Red, yellow, brown, black, NOT white," but decided even mentioning white people in a kids' worship song might be triggering for some racially traumatized youngsters. Others suggested having a white kid go up to the front of the Sunday school class and have the other kids beat him with a pool noodle. But again, then the rest of the class would have to see a white kid.

The song "B-I-B-L-E" has also been banned for suggesting the Bible is the Word of God, sources confirmed at publishing time.

Soliemani and Yamamota


In all the lamenting and defense about the killing of Iranian Gen. Soliemani, has there been mention of Yamamota?

Admiral isoroku Yamamoto, as commander of the Imperial Japanese Fleet, devised the plan and issued orders for the attack on Pearl Harbor and was responsible for the naval aspects of invading and capturing the Philippines, Dutch East India, Malaya, Singapore and Burma.

In 1943, USAAF P-38s shot down Yamamoto’s Betty on an island near Bougainville. Navy radio intercepts and decryption gave Yamamota’s trip itinerary, including time of arrival.

Soliemani’s itinerary was determined from intercepts or by someone who had access to his travel plans.

Both were legitimate military targets. The killings were no different than a sniper pulling a trigger.

How sad, to be almost 17 and suddenly meaningless


From PJ Media

The media is so self-unaware that it cannot conceive that the whole St. Greta phenomenon represents the nadir of the climate crusade. After all, if a Nobel Prize and Academy Award for Al Gore didn’t do the trick, what makes anyone think a 16-year old Swedish girl will cause everyone to sit up and say, “Well, I guess I better buy a Prius now!”

I’m still awaiting a media story that discloses the massive and organized PR operation behind St. Greta. You don’t really think she emerged spontaneously? Who pays for the travel of her retinue, for her hotel rooms and meals, and organizing the public events and other moveable feasts where she appears? I suspect she and her parents (reportedly leftist artists and actors of one kind or another) are banking some nice coin on this whole scene.

New meaning to “Thank you for your service.”


Navy. (Shake head.) I tell you what.

Chris Matthews is as dumb as Wolf Blitzer


“Chris Matthews Compares Soleimani to Elvis Presley and Princess Diana,” by Andrew Kugle, Washington Free Beacon, January 8, 2020 (thanks to the Geller Report):
Heeere’s Wolfie:
MSNBC anchor Chris Matthews on Wednesday night compared deceased Iranian terror master Qassem Soleimani to Elvis Presley and Princess Diana.
“When some people die, you don’t know what the impact is going to be. When Princess Diana died, for example, there was a huge emotional outpouring,” Matthews said. “Elvis Presley in our culture—it turns out that this general we killed was a beloved hero of the Iranian people to the point where—look at the people, we got pictures up now—these enormous crowds coming out. There’s no American emotion in this case, but there’s a hell of a lot of emotion on the other side.”
Soleimani led the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps which trained, funded, and armed Iran-sympathetic terrorist groups in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and around the Middle East, killing thousands, including hundreds of Americans.

We got pictures! These enormous crowds coming out!

Wull, damn, Wolf! It isn’t like a dictator-run country can order people into the streets or anything, right?

Almost four years ago, Matthews henchman Wolf Blitzer embarrassed himself on “Celebrity Jeopardy” to the total of -$4,600. That’s minus $4,600, as in Wolf was that much below 0. If he had been in a saloon card game, bullets would have flown, and none from anti-gun Wolfie’s direction.

Amazing, amazing. Every day, CNN, like the Democrats, gets stupider and stupider. Keep it up, CNN.

The truth about Soleimani funeral


From Karmel Melamed:

Dear Friends,
Many of you have asked me what the deal is with the Soleimani funerals so I am sharing my information as an Iranian American journalist who is following this story closely. Please DO NOT believe the U.S or Iranian regime media hype regarding the Soleimani funeral in Iran!
Journalists and bloggers in Iran that I am in contact with have indicated to me that people in Iran have been forced to attend his public funeral by the regime thugs or face imprisonment or even possibly being killed. Iranians are in fear for their lives that is why they have come out to the streets to “mourn”. The regime has shut down schools, forced businesses to shut down and shut down public offices for this charade funeral! Children have been forced to cry for the TV cameras. It’s a big show and a big production the Iranian regime has undertaken to show they are in control and the people of Iran supposedly “loved Soleimani”. The regime has bused in Shiite supporters and their family members from Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria for this big production so the crowds will look large for the cameras.
The majority of people in Iran are quite happy this man who murdered innocent Iranians recently during the protests is dead. They are privately dancing and celebrating in their homes at the news of his demise. They are sadly under major duress from the regime and forced to come out for the funeral or face dire consequences!
This is like any other major funeral in a brutal totalitarian dictatorship. I remember Kim Jong Il’s funeral in North Korea several years ago! Same deal here in Iran! The Iranian regime’s thugs are masters of propaganda that make the notorious Goebbels look like a kindergartner!
