SHOCKED, SHOCKED, SHOCKED!  Former NWSL player says league culture pressured athletes to support political messages they opposed. Elizabeth Eddy, who played for Angel City FC and four other clubs, says there was ‘no room to voice a different.

THE PROBLEM IS THAT SHE ISN’T RIGHT. THE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN LIKE THIS THE WHOLE TIME. THEY JUST USED TO HIDE IT BETTER. BUT SOME OF US COULD SEE:  I Didn’t Leave the Democratic Party Because I Wanted To. I Left Because I Was Paying Attention.

OKAY, THIS IS HILARIOUS IF YOU LIKE BLACK COMEDY:  “That’s not funny!”

Note how closely the Communists’ references to “hurt feelings” track with American wokism. Both varieties are, I think, equally insincere. The real crime here is not hurting feelings, it is transgressing against left-wing dogma.

IT’S LIKE SOCIALISM!  Medicare for All Is Popular—Until People Find Out How It Would Work. A Maryland policy experiment shows why the proposal would meet resistance in practice.

YES INDEED:  We Need to Use This Word More Often.

GUNS:  Just the Facts.

YES. I AM SO VERY SHOCKED. LOOK HOW SHOCKED I AM:  Medical schools accused of rebranding DEI programs to evade Trump administration scrutiny. Six schools swap diversity language for terms like ‘inclusive,’ ‘excellence’ and ‘belonging’ amid Trump admin scrutiny.

And the rest of them are using some other method we just haven’t caught yet.

IGNORE THE NARRATIVE AND JUST DO IT:

This is EXACTLY what I’ve been talking about.

The Dems/MSM are preemptively establishing the narrative that the Trump DOJ/FBI are going to “interfere” in the election.

What they really mean is, they believe Trump is going to hold them accountable and not let them get away with… https://t.co/xJzviS8QB1

CHRISTIAN TOTO: Adam Carolla Reveals More Proof of Hollywood Blacklist 2.0.

Adam Carolla isn’t a conservative, per se.

He’s pro choice, pro legal marijuana and you won’t catch him sporting a red MAGA hat.

He’s just not a doctrinaire progressive, and he knows hypocrisy when he sees it. That means he’s watched artists and crew members speak out on the latest political issues, both on camera and behind the scenes.

More importantly, he’s noticed who doesn’t say a syllable.

The silence is… enlightening.

THEY TOLD ME IF TRUMP WERE PRESIDENT WE’D HAVE OPENLY RACIST JUDGES ON THE BENCH. AND THEY WERE RIGHT!

“I think what’s happening here, quite candidly, is you are very intimidated for some reason, Mr. Young, with Black excellence, in light of your White mediocrity. Yeah. Right?,” Brown said, adding that he looked White.

“I’m not White, Your Honor,” the lawyer said. He’s Latino.

Related: The Bigger Problem With Judge Ada Brown’s Woke Tirade: She Said The Quiet Part Out Loud About “White Saviors.” Many lawyers and judges harbor the “anti-racist” views that Judge Brown spewed, but have the mental faculties to keep it private. “There seems to be something seriously wrong with Judge Brown. Her behavior in court that has been reported in the press is extremely troubling. Her refusal to decide cases seems to be an abdication of her responsibility as a federal judge. And her unwillingness to participate in any disciplinary proceedings suggests something is amiss. I will hold off on opining on these issues in more depth, as I suspect more facts will come out.”

In a sane nation this would lead to impeachment.

But there is some comic relief: “The implication of Young’s defense is that a Latino person cannot be racist against African Americans. That claim is wrong on its face, even under the misguided intersectionality pyramid. The bigger problem is that Young, a lifelong liberal, is unaccustomed to being called a racist.”

THAT CERTAINLY LOOKS LIKE HIM:
