The Quotes of The Day

Quote I

“With the pandemic waning, there is no justification for the Board mandate,” “It is like putting up the storm windows after the storm has passed.” Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva


Quote II

'Colin Kaepernick compares the NFL combine, which allows all players of all races a voluntary chance to become multi-millionaires, to slavery,' 'Anyone still defending this imbecile lacks a functional brain.' Outkick.com writer Clay Travis

Yesterday was another day without the NFL. And I did not miss it.


Quote III

“I would like black kids to be completely empowered, to know that they are beautiful in their blackness, but in order to do that, I don’t have to make white kids feel bad for being white. So somehow, this is a conversation that has gone in the wrong direction.” Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice


Quote IV

They think as long as they vote a certain way they will get checks in the mail. But this is an indication of how governments spends money that they don’t have, then they rely on this corrupt counterfeit machine at the federal reserve.Judge Joe Brown

Pandering to the African-Americans of Virginia, Terry McAuliffe doesn't give a wit about education.


***

I was suspended from Twitter when I asked Jake Tapper #LearnToCode. I was banned permanently when I asked Juan Williams if he was retarded. I still stand by that question.


Fox News analyst Juan Williams said that the phrase “parents’ rights” is code for white supremacy in a new op-ed for The Hill.


The right to voice opposition to race-based curriculum has become a defining issue of the 2021 Virginia gubernatorial race between Democrat Terry McAuliffe and Republican Glen Youngkin. In his latest op-ed, Williams argues that “parents’ rights” is a “rallying cry” that is “full of racial division.”


Critical race theory was addressed years ago by Jesus Christ's teaching of "Love thy neighbor as thyself" and Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech.

The problem with 'Central Planning'? It only works in the heads of the vacuous.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg appeared on the DC narrative shaping program hosted by swamp gatekeeper Chris Wallace. Within the interview Buttigieg was questioned about why West Coast port backups are worse now than before the White House announced their solution to operate ports 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Buttigieg proclaimed the ports are being impacted by the pandemic, and ships stuck in China are the reason why ships are sitting off the coast of California. Yeah, try to square that circular logic. LOL. The scale of incompetence, even in common sense politispeak, is off the charts. The illogical statements by this guy are legendary; however, he outdid himself today.

Eventually Pete weaves his way through fourteen nonsensical catch phrases to get to a point where he proclaims nothing in the supply chain will start being more efficient until everyone is vaccinated. And yes, it appears that he is so stuck in pretzel-speak, Buttigieg actually believes that.

The Left wants to ban coal. Supply and demand say, 'Not so fast'.

Top U.S. coal miners are experiencing a massive surge in demand as power companies restart coal-fired power plants due to high natural gas prices to prevent electricity shortages ahead of the winter season.

According to Bloomberg, Arch Resources, the second-largest U.S. coal miner, has sold every lump of coal it will extract out of the ground for 2022. The company has sold next year's coal for 20% over the current spot. Peabody Energy Corp., the top U.S. coal miner, has sold 90% of all its coal from the Powder River Basin area for 2022.

Arch's CEO Paul Lang said the company's thermal coal output for 2022 is "fully committed." According to S&P Global Market Intelligence, Arch sold the coal for $16 per ton, well over last week's $13.25 spot price.

There is no such thing as "Man made climate change."

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos' £48million Gulf Stream has led a 400-strong parade of private jets into COP25 including Prince Albert of Monaco, scores of royals and dozens of 'green' CEOs - as an extraordinary traffic jam forced empty planes to fly 30 miles to find space to park.

Some environmental activists at the COP26 climate conference will be urging others to cut down on air travel and eat less meat, but little has been said about the billionaires flying in on their own planes on routes already served by commercial airlines.

Meanwhile, as the super-rich were whisked away into waiting limos, hundreds of less fortunate delegates were left unable to get to Glasgow after brutal storms crippled rail links, forcing travellers to sleep on the floor of Euston station in London.

During President Trump's presidency we constantly heard about him and his children's business pursuits. Hunter "Snort" Biden's biz? Not so much.

The latest round of art shows featuring paintings and other artwork by Hunter Biden are being funded by a radical far-left billionaire with a history of political activism, according to the Daily Caller.

An exhibition of Biden’s work took place on October 1st at the Milk Studios in Los Angeles; Milk Studios is owned by billionaire businessman Moishe Mana. Mana has repeatedly donated to the Democratic Party, and was also behind several vulgar art displays with political messages behind them, including an infamous nude sculpture of President Donald Trump.

A “universal” shot would protect against every branch of Covid’s viral family tree—even future ones. But getting there won’t be easy.

I wonder if you can Souse Vide this stuff?

Heinz has launched a Christmas Dinner canned soup, complete with turkey and all the trimmings – but the limited edition tin sold out within hours of launching on Monday.

The Christmas Dinner Big Soup contains “big chunks” of turkey, pigs in blankets, Brussels sprouts, stuffing balls and potatoes, with a gravy and cranberry sauce.

I'm starting to think we should implement selective Sharia Law.

PROVO, Utah (ABC4) – A registered sex offender has been arrested for greeting young trick-or-treaters in the nude on Sunday.

Provo Police have identified the suspect as 48-year-old Steven Kelley Little from Provo. Little is a registered sex offender and is currently on probation for lewdness involving a child.

Police say the victims are three children under the age of 14 and five children over the age of 14. All of the children involved confirmed they were visually exposed to the suspect’s genitalia.

If you have done nothing wrong, why resign immediately? My guess is that where there is smoke there is fire.

Barclays CEO Jes Staley is stepping down from the bank effective immediately amid a regulatory investigation into his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

Barclays said in a statement Monday that it was made aware of preliminary findings from the investigation, by UK financial regulators, on Friday evening.

The disgraced financier Epstein was arrested in July 2019 and charged with child sex trafficking. He was found dead in his jail cell a month later.

Doesn't the Hollywood Florida police have anything better to do with their time?

A Florida woman was allegedly told by local police not to wear a planned Halloween costume or she would be deemed a protester, and fined or even sent to jail.

When Catherine Uden picked out her Halloween costume, which resembles a condo tower, she probably wasn’t expecting to hear from the police. Uden isn’t a fan of a plan of a local condo building project, and integrated a mocking take on it as part of her Halloween costume for Hollywood, Florida’s Hollyweird Halloween block party.

There’s no disputing that Uden has been a vocal and prominent critic of a local developer’s plan to build a 30-story condo on beachfront land. Currently, the land has a park and a community center. Since the land is publicly owned, a vote by city commissioners will be held later this year to decide on the matter.

The ONT has covered In-N-Out's position about being the Kung Flu police. Yesterday CBD had an excellent thread about In-N-Out. In-N-Out which is based in California has been made an offer to move.

Refusing to ask patrons if they got the COVID-19 shots or to show a negative test in order to eat in, the popular California-based burger chain In-N-Out is taking a stand — and paying for it. But the company may have a new place to call home, if it takes up an offer from the state of Florida.

If Train A leaves the station traveling 55 MPH and Train B leaves the station traveling 55 MPH when will they meet? Probably somewhere on The ONT.

Two trains were involved in a crash Sunday afternoon in Salisbury, England, officials said.

The Dorset & Wiltshire Fire Department described it on Twitter as a "major incident."

The department also confirmed that around 50 firefighters are responding to the incident.

No deaths have been reported.

"Officers are continuing to respond to the incident at Fisherton Tunnel. A number of people have been injured, but thankfully no one has died," British Transport Police tweeted. "Updates will continue to be shared here."

We all want to have fun. Genius Award Winner.

They then showed up to Mikula's home to arrest him, as he continued to brag about the large sum of money he made while police read him his Miranda rights.

'Mr. Mikula advised his state of mind was that he is young, makes a lot of money, and has a fast car and he can do whatever he wants,' Trooper W. Kelly of the Florida Highway Patrol told WFLA.

'Mr. Mikula admitted that was a foolish way of thinking and not a good way to live.

'Mr. Mikula advised he wanted to do something fun for three seconds, and it cost him.'
