Rep. @AyannaPressley on GOP Congressmembers who wouldn't wear masks: "This is criminal behavior — that's chemical warfare so far as I'm concerned." pic.twitter.com/KksuipZKLp

It’s warfare to have been vaccinated and not wear a mask?

This is unhinged.  More than their usual level of unhinged.

It’s also leading down the path of “you weren’t wearing a mask do you are expelled from this body for assaulting other members.”

Mayor tied to tree and beaten by furious voters after ‘failing to keep promises’
A mayor in Mexico who reportedly overpromised and underdelivered was met by an angry mob of voters who dragged him from office and tied him to a tree for two hours until he apologised

Fuming voters finally had enough of their blundering mayor, so they tied him to a tree.

The elected leader was subjected to an angry mob who roped him to a tree trunk and beat him.

Ramirez is reportedly known for his outlandish campaign promises, according to local reports.

American political violence ain’t got nothing on Mexico.

They take lying politicians and turn them into human piñatas and beating them until campaign promises fall out is more than what happened at the Capitol.

I’m surprised that Democrats would wants mass immigration from Mexico and promises them the moon given how local lying politicians are treated.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) on Thursday finalized a controversial rule banning large banks from rejecting businesses based on their industry.

The move comes less than two months after the agency first proposed the regulations.

The rule makes it illegal for any bank regulated by the OCC with more than $100 billion in assets to reject a customer for reasons other than financial risk. Supporters and critics of the rule both say it is intended to prevent more banks from joining those who’ve stopped serving firearm companies and financing oil and gas drilling projects.

Regulator finalizes rule forcing banks to serve oil, gun companies.

Expect the Democrats to try to overturn this. Being able to choke the income pipeline of the Gun Culture would guarantee the bankruptcy of makers and dealers of anything gun related. But maybe it won’t be that easy:

“As Comptrollers and staff in previous administrations have made clear in speeches, guidance, and testimony, banks should not terminate services to entire categories of customers without conducting individual risk assessments,” said Acting Comptroller Brian Brooks, who announced Wednesday he will leave the agency on Thursday.

“It is inconsistent with basic principles of prudent risk management to make decisions based solely on conclusory or categorical assertions of risk without actual analysis. Moreover, elected officials should determine what is legal and illegal in our country,” he said.

Banks have fiduciary duty to produce a profit for its investors. The banks that stayed away from Gun And Ammo Companies because of politics (including political pressure) missed in the income generated this year and that was breach of trust to their investors who should be royally pissed knowing they missed on money brought by the selling of over 20 million firearms and 9 billion rounds of ammunition this year alone.

Let’s hope the ruling stays put. You can always scare your stoner friends telling them the same shit will happen to them.

Hat Tip to whomever in Facebook sent me the info and now I can’t find who was it.

Madison County man finds drugs in car bought from government auction in Tennessee

One Madison County family was in for an unwanted surprise when they opened the trunk of their newly purchased car. The deal they got at a government auction in Tennessee was full of heroin.

Rick Joyner tries to get all of his foster children their first car when they start driving. It was his foster son Tyrese Allen’s turn.

“I told him I could probably get him one for pretty reasonable and I did,” Joyner said. He found a working Ford Taurus for $500 on a government auction site, “The ones I look at are all drug seizures.”

Joyner made sure to speak with the officers, “It was full of junk and all kinds of stuff and they were like, ‘Whatever is in there, it’s yours.’ Cause I asked them if they ran a dog through it but they were like, ‘Nah, we got it all don’t worry about it.’”

They towed the car back to Alabama and popped the trunk. “We started pulling all this stuff out of the trunk and I saw this Walmart bag and I pulled it up and it had two bundles of something that was taped really, really heavy. I was looking at it and I thought, ‘Something don’t look right with this.’”

After making the discovery, Joyner called the Madison County Sheriff’s Office.

The Sheriff’s Office has the evidence and says that the bag contained about 2 kilos of heroin worth approximately $300,000.

$300,000 of drugs for $500, not bad.

The Madison cops were decent about it.

I could easily see this going bad really fast.

“You are under arrest for posession of the drugs we sold you by accident at a police auction after we told you the car was clean.”

I wonder if it’s time to retire that dog too?

Thousands of additional US National Guard just arrived at the US Capitol with racks of M4 rifles, gear. Never seen anything like this in our nation’s Capitol. Our video here. pic.twitter.com/DteLGFbIpJ

I hate that I have to even consider asking this question: how many of those thousands of troops have been pre-vetted re: any potential ties to Q/anon/white nationalist groups?

There we have it.

Biden can’t trust that the troops protecting him and the Capitol are not loyal to Trump and will, like AOC said, be part of the conspiracy against the Democrats.

The military will undergo an ideological purge.

Anyone who supported Trump or traditional Right-Wing style patriotism will be driven out.

Only an ideologically pure military can be trusted to defend the Politburo Congress.

History is repeating itself.

I’ve watched this movie before.  It was called Doctor Zhivago.

Everything.

A few notes on women and girls who are trans in sports. There is a relentless effort to situation trans people as a threat to cis people in sport and elsewhere. There simply is no threat.

— Chase Strangio (@chasestrangio) January 14, 2021

The foundation of these arguments are based on two dangerous and faulty premises. First, that men and boys are always better, stronger, faster and more skilled than women and girls. Second, that sex categories are binary, fixed and easily identifiable at birth.

— Chase Strangio (@chasestrangio) January 14, 2021

Both of these premises are rooted in misogyny and white supremacy. The interest behind these narratives is not in “protecting women” but rather protecting the power of the state to control people’s bodies and constrain people’s identities.

— Chase Strangio (@chasestrangio) January 14, 2021

Women and girls who are trans have been competing in women’s sport at every level of competition all over the world for decades. There is simply NO dominance of trans women athletes because the myth of biological superiority is just that – a myth.

— Chase Strangio (@chasestrangio) January 14, 2021

Clear?  Wanting to preserve female sports for biologically female athletes is white supremacism.

See, recently this news came out, as reported by The Guardian, since US news is garbage.

Trans women retain 12% edge in tests two years after transitioning, study finds

A groundbreaking new study on transgender athletes has found trans women retain a 12% advantage in running tests even after taking hormones for two years to suppress their testosterone. The results, researchers suggest, indicate the current International Olympic Committee guidelines may give trans women an “unfair competitive advantage” over biological women.

The research, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, found that before starting their hormone treatment trans women performed 31% more push-ups and 15% more sit-ups in one minute on average than a biological women younger than 30 in the air force – and ran 1.5 miles 21% faster.

Yet after suppressing their testosterone for two years – a year longer than IOC guidelines – they were still 12% faster on average than biological females.

The trans women also retained a 10% advantage in push-ups and a 6% advantage in sit-ups for the first two years after taking hormones, before their advantage disappeared. But the researchers say they “may underestimate the advantage in strength that trans women have over cis women … because trans women will have a higher power output than cis women when performing an equivalent number of push-ups”.

Now we have actual, factual data that shows what common sense has been telling us all along.

This is important because this contradicts the IOC’s arbitrary standard for letting trans-women compete in female games.

So science has to be eliminated.  White supremacism is the new Jüdische Physik.

If the data doesn’t match the narrative, it is white supremacist, regardless of it not having anything to do with race in any way.

We are plowing straight ahead into a new dark ages of ignorance at the speed of social media.
