Holy Wokeness! Everyone Vulnerable In
Pending ESPN Layoffs

Go woke, go broke, go home. Multiple sources report that ESPN, the worldwide leader in woke sports, will soon lay off many members of its work force. Nearly every person working at ESPN is vulnerable in the bloodletting to come during the next few weeks. Believe me, I don’t wish for anyone to get laid off or to lose the ability to provide for their family. However, ESPN made its bed with wokeness and paying exorbitant prices for broadcasting rights. The network chose to pay Stephen A. Smith $12 million for his lefty rants on the First Take program, and even he is said to be

FTA: I don’t wish for anyone to get laid off or to lose the ability to provide for their family. I wish for it. I want leftists -- talking heads on sports shows, the media, celebrities, politicians -- to suffer for all the damage they have done to our country.

I am happy to see the network fail, and the woke laid off. They celebrated and advocated for the people that refused the shot to be unemployed.

Fowler - $3 million annually. Smith - $12 million. Van Pelt - $15 million. Buck - $15 million (seriously?). Aikman - $18 million. Don't worry, Jay. If there are any from that list that get the axe, their families will do just fine. But as with network anchors, I have to again ask: Is there no one else in the country who can do what these guys do for a whole lot less money? Van Pelt is pretty good at what he does but he is not the reason anyone stays up late to watch 'Sportscenter' every night.

I thought it strange that ESPN did not heed the warning provided by Hollywood, Netflix, the Disney Channel and others who caved to Leftist activism and worship of all things woke but then I realized that no Leftist entity has ever learned from their mistakes until they were dead. ESPN's heavy expenditure in promoting black participation in golf has resulted in exactly zero black golfers playing in tournaments at any level but they can and do air a lot of clips of their one trick wonder, Tiger Woods.

I haven't watched ESPN since they reported on the NFL/NBA in the late 90's. Back then both weren't woke and political. If the former went away tomorrow, I wouldn't care.

How much is Michael Cohen’s testimony worth at this point? I wrote about how his former legal adviser Robert Costello told the grand jury considering the case against President Donald Trump that Cohen was a serial liar, “far from solid evidence,” and that Cohen had told him that he never told Trump about the payment to Stormy Daniels, the crux of the case against President Donald Trump. Now there’s more evidence that has newly surfaced that also throws a gut punch into the DA’s case. In a 2018 letter that Michael Cohen’s then-lawyer wrote to the Federal Election Commission, Cohen said that he “used his own personal funds

DirecTV and Newsmax have reached a new multiyear deal that will bring the conservative channel back to some 13 million customers this week. The deal marks the end of a lengthy and bitter public relations battle between the two companies that hinged on carrier fees, with Newsmax’s leadership repeatedly accusing the cable provider of political bias. “Newsmax recognizes and appreciates that DirecTV clearly supports diverse voices, including conservative ones,” Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy said in a statement celebrating the agreement. “As a standalone company, DirecTV helped give Newsmax its start nearly a decade ago

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis toughened his stance on Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling Putin a “war criminal” who should be “held accountable” for the invasion of Ukraine, just days after he claimed the Ukraine war is not a “vital national interest.” DeSantis angered Republican hawks, Never Trumpers, and neocons less than two weeks ago when he characterized the Ukraine-Russia conflict as a “territorial dispute” that is not a “vital” U.S. interests. DeSantis told Fox News’s Tucker Carlson: While the U.S. has many vital national interests — securing our border, addressing the crisis of readiness within our military, achieving energy security and independence, checking the economic, cultural, and military power of the Chinese

There is something odd going on at the southern border. Groups of Chinese nationals have been spotted as they try to make their way to the United States. The sudden uptick in the number of Chinese nationals making the trek to the border is not getting the press coverage it should. This is my shocked face. As usual, only one news organization has noticed. As you can see from this brief video, a small group of Chinese nationals is approached by a Fox News reporter at the southern border. He asks if they are from China and they respond that they are.

An appeals court on Wednesday rejected attempts by former President Trump’s legal team to challenge a Friday ruling ordering his attorney Evan Corcoran to produce documents related to the probe into the potential mishandling of records at Mar-a-Lago. A three-judge panel for the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with special counsel Jack Smith and backed a lower court judge who on Friday issued a sealed ruling directing Corcoran to cooperate on several lines of inquiry he had rebuffed, citing attorney-client privilege. In that opinion, D.C. District Court Judge Beryl Howell determined that the Justice Department had presented sufficient evidence that his legal advice may have

Stanford Law Dean Jenny Martinez released a detailed letter Wednesday criticizing the students who heckled federal judge Kyle Duncan and announcing that DEI administrator Tirien Steinbach, who interrupted his lecture, is now on leave. Martinez declined to submit to calls that she retract her letter of apology to Duncan and emphasized that Stanford’s speaker disruption policy was violated by both students and administrators. At an event hosted by Stanford’s Federalist Society earlier this month, Duncan, who sits on the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, was expecting to give a wide-ranging lecture on recent decisions that Court had handed down.

A new report published by the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government and House Judiciary Committee shows extensive collusion between the Biden administration and the National School Board Association. The partnership came as the group drafted a letter calling on the Department of Justice to classify parents as domestic terrorists. The letter also asked Attorney General Merrick Garland to use the Patriot Act, implemented after 9/11, to go after parents expressing criticism over school lockdowns, critical race theory and inappropriate sexual content in the classroom.

New York City District Attorney Alvin Bragg is rumored to be ready to bring a sham indictment against former president Donald Trump for allegedly paying porn star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign to be quiet about a former affair.

Donald Trump had been slowly increasing his national primary lead over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis since the fall — a trend that continues now that the former president is under threat of indictment. The spread between the former president and the Florida governor is now 11% in the Morning Consult poll. It’s 41-27% in the Monmouth Poll and 46-32% in the Quinnipiac Poll. Despite unprecedented negative coverage by the national media and the hype surrounding “the first president ever, ever, evah, to be indicted,” Trump has grown his lead over DeSantis since the beginning of the year. In the Morning Consult polls, Trump’s margin over DeSantis has increased

The Federal Reserve on Wednesday raised its benchmark interest rate by a quarter of a point, forging ahead with its fight against stubborn inflation despite a spate of bank failures and a growing crisis within the financial sector. The move puts the key benchmark federal funds rate at a range of 4.75% to 5%, the highest since 2007, from near zero just one year ago. It marks the ninth consecutive rate increase, following a half-point hike in December and four jumbo-sized 75-basis-point hikes before that. Fed officials are in the midst of the most aggressive tightening campaign since the 1980s as they try to crush inflation that is still running

Yeah, who knew? As a non-coffee drinker in a coffee-obsessed world, I’m pleased to know that at least in this case, I’m not a genetically-coded “inherently racist” white supremacist, by virtue of my whiteness. I am a “cis” white male, though, so I do qualify as “all of the above” in every other ridiculous left-wing sense, so there’s that. Anyway, a recent idiotic article posted on Afru.com makes the argument that drinking coffee perpetuates white supremacy. Yeah. The ridiculous piece suggests that because coffee was “created by black people,” if you enjoy drinking the stuff, you’re “helping an industry built on racism.”

There are a lot of deeply disturbing and unlikeable members of the trans cult. Jazz Jennings is not one of them. He was transitioned by his mother at the tender age of five. By the age of eleven, Jazz was on puberty blockers. At 17, even though a minor, Jazz underwent multiple genital surgeries to remove his penis and have it inverted. This process was botched and several attempts were made to remedy it, but the reduced size of Jazz’s penis due to years on puberty blockers made an already brutal surgery even worse.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that cases of a deadly fungus tripled in the United States from 2019 to 2021. The fungus, Candida aurist, has caused illness and death since it was first detected in the United States. The CDC rates it as an “urgent threat”, the highest level of concern. There are three reasons the CDC has rated the fungus with its highest level of concern- it is multidrug-resistant, it spreads easily in healthcare facilities, and it can cause severe, invasive infections with high mortality rates. The authors of the CDC report wrote that the fungus “has continued to cause illness and death
