Politico Frets About Vance’s ‘Weird
Views on Gender’

Original Article

Posted By: Judy W., 7/25/2024 5:44:57 PM

Fresh on the heels of Politico’s fear-mongering article warning about the ominous Christian influence of Lord of the Rings genius JRR Tolkien on Trump VP pick JD Vance, the outlet now devotes space to a profile of Vance’s “weird views on gender.” And by “weird,” Politico means “normal” – the traditional, biologically based understanding of sex and family that has held for all but the last ten minutes or so of human history. (Snip) Conservative politicians like Vance and, say, Ron DeSantis, who understand this and are willing to get in the trenches of that fight, terrify the Left.

Comments:

I know JD Vance couldn't have set this up on purpose, but I think it's a riot that a candidate that likes Tolkein and believes in traditional marriage is triggering the left. I hope these articles get wide readership, showing Democrats who approximate normal people how absolutely nuts the left is. I hope Politico and other leftist outlets disclose more shocking facts about JD. Maybe he believes little children should spend school time learning the three Rs instead of gender studies and transgender story times.

As an unmarried woman with a college degree, no kids, and a cat, I have to agree with JD. Generally speaking, my cohort is an embarrassment. “Hate has no home here.” Yeah, sure. Common sense has no home there either.

Gender? Gender is about pronouns, not people.

It looks like the crazy left is trying to go after Vance like they've gone after Harrison Butker, the KC Chiefs kicker when he spoke in a commencement speech about women cherishing their role of being mothers. They turned that in to women can't have careers. Honestly, these people are not too bright and have no comprehension skills.

It's either that #3, or they're just plain ol' nuts. I think it's much closer to the second choice.

Dismissing biology is what's weird. The ideology that has "gender" replacing sex as the basis of identity is its own religion -- a body of dogma having no evidence and demanding absolute fidelity / conformance. Gettin' sick of the growing variety of weird rainbow flags. Dismayed to see our ecclesiastical cousins (Episcopals) submitting their logo to the many rainbows, to where that (not the Cross) is the dominant symbol. Lord, have mercy.

The party of Dylan Mulvaney, "Admiral" Rachel Levine, Sam Brinton, that circus freak intern at the White House, (ad nauseum) is worried about Vance's "views on gender?" OK, let's take a vote, America, say in November.

“Vance is about to introduce voters to a more conceptual take on sexism” ‘Conceptual’, really, like in a male and a female relationship. What a novel idea. However did he get that into his head?

The Left can't seem to drop their "toxic white man" attitude after Vance's nomination. Even some democrat men are apoplectic that a black female was not the nominee.

The Left Fear-Mongers Over Vance’s Tolkien Influence 20 replies
Posted by Judy W. 7/24/2024 6:58:29 AM Post Reply
Immediately in the wake of the announcement at the Republican National Convention that JD Vance is Donald Trump’s pick for running mate, the leftist media predictably launched a fear-mongering campaign to demonize the young populist. The politics of personal destruction – it’s their go-to strategy, rather than addressing the issues. And one of the first scary red flags they warned about is the influence on the future Vice President of Lord of the Rings author JRR Tolkien. On Tuesday, MSNBC mainstay propagandist Rachel Maddow suggested that Vance and “his mentor,” venture capitalist Peter Thiel, were both inspired by “alt-right” and “Aryan” messaging in Tolkien’s vastly popular fantasy epic.

Now that Kamala is unburdened by that has-been and before whoever's holding Joe Biden releases another not-quite-proof-of-life audio recording, let's go back less than a month to when this started - the June 27th debate and the formerly loyal press corps' amazing synchronised-shivving routine.(Snip) So why weren't they able, after a week-and-a-half of dosage experimentation, to shoot the stiff enough of the juice to pass him off as being back in his State of the Union top-of-the-game mode?

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle testified before the House Oversight Committee on Monday, in the wake of the July 13 assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. Numerous lawmakers—from both sides of the aisle—have called for Cheatle to resign after a gunman fired multiple shots at Trump during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, about 33 miles north of Pittsburgh. A former fire chief, Corey Comperatore, 50, died shielding his family from the gunfire, and two other rally attendees were injured. As expected, lawmakers pressed Cheatle over the security failures during Monday’s hearing, which began at 10 a.m.

In his recent Michigan speech Trump addressed Project 2025, and did so in a way disturbingly similar to Globalist and Democrat responses. “You have the radical left and the radical right and they come up — I don’t know what the hell it is, it’s Project 25….He’s involved in project — and then they read some of the things and they are extreme, they’re seriously extreme. “But I don’t know anything about it, I don’t want to know anything about it.” The question is, is that because he’s following a strategy of least offence now, or is it because he genuinely shares leftist attitudes to what Project 2025 wants to do?

A few things in life are certain: death, taxes, and the Left trying to control the Supreme Court. From demanding the unnecessary addition of more seats or limiting the justices’ terms, relentless propaganda that certain justices and their decisions are “corrupt,” creating fake ethical “scandals,” openly threatening individual justices, and more, the Left wants the court under their thumb. That’s old news. The only new thing, if you can really call it that, is that President Joe Biden, according to news reports, will soon endorse a few ideas that have been around for years. Biden says he now supports limiting Supreme Court justices’ terms and imposing an “enforceable” ethics code.

The university encampments, it turns out, were planned as early as November 2023, belying any claims that the student protests occurred organically and spontaneously. The mainstream media, the authors say, is complicit because it fails to vet the activists and financiers behind the pro-Hamas ecosystem, preferring instead to portray the protests as if they are spontaneous occurrences."The protesters are being generously funded and expertly coached by the same anti-U.S., anti-capitalist, anti-West puppet-masters who sprang Black Lives Matter on us a decade ago... It's all part of a giant web, a revolutionary ecosystem, that spans the globe from Havana to Shanghai and coordinates and sustains these often-violent protests."

It apparently never occurred to either the heads of the UN or the EU to consider that if you are a terrorist organization that commits war crimes, you do not get to choose how a war that you started is waged against you. If you do not want a "bloodbath," do not take hostages, hide them among civilians, try to prevent a rescue, then if they are rescued, profess shock at the fallout that you yourself have teed up. (Snip) The irony of all this seems completely lost on the political and media elites, who kept insisting that the Israeli rescue operation was somehow immoral.

The Justice Department agreed to pay former FBI special agent Peter Strzok a $1.2 settlement over the release of his anti-Trump text messages. Peter Strzok sued the DOJ for ‘unlawfully disclosing’ his text messages to his paramour Lisa Page. Strzok and Lisa Page discussed an “insurance policy” to keep Trump out of office. “I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s office…that there’s no way [Trump] gets elected…but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk,” Strzok text messaged to Page in an Aug. 15, 2016 exchange, referring to Andrew McCabe.

The FBI wants to question Donald Trump about his near-death experience when he survived an assassination attempt earlier this month. It has yet to receive a victim statement from the former president as it collects evidence to investigate the horrifying event, one official said. The bureau's director Christopher Wray sparked a firestorm on Wednesday when he testified to lawmakers on Capitol Hill that there are still 'some question' about whether the former president was struck with a bullet or shrapnel. In a subsequent statement he sought to clarify that remark. Trump was quick to refute any suggestion that he was hit by shrapnel, saying

The Harris campaign released a video early Friday morning showing the likely Democratic presidential nominee taking a call from the political power couple where they reveal they're endorsing her. The video was filmed Wednesday in Indianapolis, where Harris traveled to address the Zeta Phi Beta sorority. The couple's decision to stay silent for days on Harris's candidacy had fueled speculation they weren't supportive of her bid.

Vice President Kamala Harris said the public should no longer use the terms "radical Islamic terrorism" and "illegal alien" during a speech she gave at a Los Angeles mosque in July 2016. "We must have the courage to object when they use that term, ‘radical Islamic terrorism,’ which ignores how Muslims have overwhelmingly been the greatest victims of terror," she told the crowd at the Islamic Center of Southern California. "We must also have the courage to reject the term ‘illegal alien.’" Harris’s remarks, which are available on her Facebook page, are yet another example of her history

The dancers then went into a room and began to kiss some more. Lady Gaga also sang French songs in a prerecorded opening, while Celine Dion sang from the Eiffel Tower.

Kamala Harris was all smiles when she arrived at Joe Biden's former Delaware campaign headquarters on Monday. She was there to lift the spirits of blindsided staffers, who after 15 months of toiling to re-elect the president, suddenly found themselves working for her. 'It is my great honor to have Joe's endorsement in this race,' she boasted to cheers from a crowd who were now on her payroll.But as the assembled readily applauded, some must have harbored private concerns. For, behind the recent public self-branding of Harris as a kindly, jovial 'Momala', she has earned a nasty reputation as an alleged 'soul-destroying' workplace 'bully'.

Biden had revealed himself to be woefully unprepared to challenge Donald Trump effectively in what many have called the most significant election of our lifetimes.
