I spend a lot of time saying WTH? Has the world gone crazy or has my aging brain stopped being able to determine what is and what isn’t reality?
In plain language, am I nuts or are many, many others batty as a bedbug? 
In the “real” world that I see the media can’t be trusted to present facts to the public they are supposed to serve. Politicians are liars and thieves, well nothing new there. And many on the right would rather align themselves with the left than support anything that Donald Trump says or does.anyone?
When your hate of Trump turns you against things you have always believed perhaps the problem isn’t with him.
How abut the latest loony feminists problem – the Wonder Woman problem.
Feminists Can’t Figure Out If They’re Supposed To Like ‘Wonder Woman’
The iconic princess from the Greek isle is finally on the big screen, and feminists are excited!
Or they are upset. It really depends, based on the particular subject, or who the source happens to be—and sometimes the same source has felt both ways about the same issue. It should be expected, given the genesis of the character is fraught with conflicting issues, not the least being she was created by a married male, and modeled after his live-in girlfriend.
I decide if I like or dislike a movie. I certainly don’t need some feminist telling me what to like a movie or any thing else in life by their criteria.
I remember when the battle cry was “I am woman – hear me roar”. Is it now “I am woman and I’ll make up my mind as soon as someone tells me what to think?” Sorry ladies, not in this or any other lifetime.
There is news that Trump’s Travel Order is headed to the Supreme Court. Will the same liberals that insisted the Jeff Sessions recuse himself from investigating the Russian hacking now insist that Ruth Bader Ginsberg and her big mouth recuse herself?
William A. Jacobson: How can Ginsburg participate in Travel Order case after her *campaign* statements about Trump?
In July 2016, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was quoted in a CNN interview deriding Trump as “a faker”:
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s well-known candor was on display in her chambers late Monday, when she declined to retreat from her earlier criticism of Donald Trump and even elaborated on it.
“At first I thought it was funny,” she said of Trump’s early candidacy. “To think that there’s a possibility that he could be president … ” Her voice trailed off gloomily.
Her remarks weren’t so much “candor” as the belittling tone of an elitist old lib outraged that someone she felt beneath her was even being considered for the highest office in the country.
Imagine how much worse is her ire now. I can picture her and the other two liberal witches on SCOTUS surrounding a caldron and muttering “bubble, bubble, toil and trouble.”
Oh my, was that sexist? Tough. I never did PC very well.
Meanwhile after the horrible attack by terrorist in England members of the mainstream media are outraged and on the attack – against President Trump. WTH?
Levin on MSM: ‘What the hell is wrong with these people?’
On Monday’s radio program, Conservative Review Editor-in-Chief Mark Levin played the worst of the deranged comments from the likes of CNN and MSNBC, with brainless messages from Democrats as well, just for fun.
Federal Attorneys who Groped Female Colleagues Rewarded with Bonuses
Senior attorneys at the Department of Justice who groped female employees and engaged in other acts of sexual harassment were rewarded with bonuses, according to a recent audit.
The inspector general found that the Justice Department has a habit of transferring employees who are accused of sexual harassment rather than reprimanding them, going against the government’s “no tolerance” policy. Auditors found several cases where attorneys who stalked and spied on their female employees were subsequently rewarded for their behavior.
“We found that Civil Division employees received performance awards while a sexual harassment or misconduct investigation was ongoing or while disciplinary actions were in effect,” the inspector general reported in the audit released last week.
Our tax dollars at work folks. Ain’t it wonderful?
HT to Rev Amy for this story:
Boy Believes He’s A Girl, Defeats Girls At Connecticut State Championships. Actual Girl Too Afraid To Say Anything About It.
Let’s talk about fair for a moment.
A Connecticut freshman boy who identifies as a girl, who as of April had not had sex reassignment surgery or taken hormone and puberty blockers, was allowed to compete against girls in the Connecticut high school Class M state championships, where he won both the 100-meter and 200-meter dashes with times that would not have even finished last in the boys’ same events.
Where are feminists? They have a conniption fit when they perceive some female victim constantly. Yet evidently all some male critter has to do is say “I feel like a girl” and girls can forget fairness.
What is wrong with the school administrators and parents that allow our girls to “loose” to a thing like him? Transgender my a wrinkled old butt! He’s just an untalented little boy that can’t compete with other boys so the liberal folks allow him to compete with the little girls.
Remember this from 2016? Where were all those “Climate Change” alarmists then?
Hillary flies 20 miles in private jet from Martha’s Vineyard to Nantucket
Hillary Clinton is very important, and she can’t be bogged down by pesky things such as boats or waiting.
The presidential candidate, who is endlessly trying to tell factory workers in Ohio and Pennsylvania that she’s one of them, jetted approximately 20 miles from Martha’s Vineyard — where she was last night partying with President Obama — to Nantucket for a fundraiser on Saturday.
20 miles people! She flew 20 miles! The hypocrisy of the Climate alarmists is stunning. Their hysteria about Trump pulling out of the Paris Accords stinks of their hypocrisy.
Every time I turn on the television or my computer I am astounded at the things that are now being accepted as normal. Things like boys running in girls races and a Mayor of London basically telling its citizens to accept terror as the new norm.
If we accept this, if we don’t fight it with all we have and all we are, we will bequeath to our children and grandchildren an insane world. Plus a country so far in dept they will never get out from under.
On that cheerful note…

WTH?
Robert Tracinski: The Media Is Now Leaking Classified Info Just Because They Feel Like It
This morning, The New York Times brought us another breathtaking exposé of classified national security information that is really important for the public to know because…um, well, because they just kind of felt like it.
The story is about a contractor for an international shipping company who was captured and held hostage by rebels in Yemen before being released last year. Without the man’s permission or cooperation, The New York Times gives details of his capture and imprisonment, his name, his age, his exact job description with the shipping company, and the location where his wife and children lived at the time (none of which I will repeat here).

The Wonderful NY Times (snarc)
‘The New York Times, Apologist for Communist Murder
The head of the NYT’s Moscow bureau at that time was Walter Duranty, an apologist for Bolshevism. American left-wing intellectuals enthusiastically greeted his dispatches from the Soviet Union. In 1931, Duranty was awarded a Pulitzer Prize for a series of articles in the NYT that covered up Stalinism’s atrocities.
He vociferously denied the existence of the famine in Ukraine, claiming people were “hungry but not starving” and “there is no famine or actual starvation.” Some other Western journalists covering the USSR honestly reported on the famine. One of them was the Manchester Guardian’s Moscow correspondent Gareth Jones, but Duranty tried to discredit Jones’ reports, calling him a liar.
Other Western intellectuals denied the famine in Ukraine in the 1930s, including notably George Bernard Shaw. Some were duped—perhaps willingly—by their KGB handlers who showed them Potemkin’s villages. Duranty’s case had more sinister twists, because we know he was aware of the famine. According to his biography, titled “Stalin’s Apologist,” by Sally J. Taylor, Duranty admitted this when he visited the British embassy in Moscow in June 1932. An embassy official duly recorded his conversation with Duranty to that effect and dispatched his report to the British Foreign Office in London.
Money Hides a Lot of Other People’s Woes
We do not know what drove his desire to spread the fake news, but it may be related to his lifestyle in Russia. Taylor describes it as follows. He was a flamboyant lady’s man enjoying a life of luxury by both Russian and Western standards of that time. He had a researcher, a secretary, a chauffeur, a maid, and a cook.
The NYT was willing to pay for all these amenities because Duranty managed to get exclusive interviews with Stalin. It was a mutually beneficial arrangement for all parties involved: Stalin received a good publicity in the West, the NYT published exclusive interviews with Stalin, which helped its circulation, while Duranty could lead his glamorous and lavish lifestyle.
It was mutually beneficial for all parties—that is, except for the millions of Ukrainian peasants.”

This is just a bit of the whole article. Newsworthy information in the whole article.
June 7, 2017 at 1:32 pm |
Thanks for the h/t, Marge!
This article burned me up, too. It is DEPLORABLE that these people are printing classified information. Those in the media who are printing this information are just as guilty as the leakers themselves. They are putting our nation at risk, and all out of their hatred for Trump. It is high time the DOJ puts them in their places…

So happy to be old or older because so much that we worked for is now seen as racist and/or ‘triggering’ someone or something. I don’t like comparisons to previous times because I like to live in the present. However wearing blinders, allowing the crazys to govern, shutting off free speech from various groups and letting the media report whatever and outing whoever all in the name of money and fans is indicative of Europe in the 20 and 30’s
June 7, 2017 at 12:59 pm |
I don’t like to dwell in the past either. However seeing where we’ve been sometimes shows us where we may be headed. And right now, IMO, we ain’t headed in a good direction.

While I was not happy to lose our excellent Governor to the UN, I am really glad Haley is at the UN: https://worldisraelnews.com/haley-arrives-in-israel-says-she-has-no-patience-for-bullies-at-the-un

She is an awesome woman and I’m delighted that she represents our country after Powers and S. Rice. I can see her as president one day.
June 7, 2017 at 8:49 pm |
I would LOVE for her to run for President. I think she would do an outstanding job.
And yes, isn’t it so nice to have her in that role after the ones Obama put in? Night and day…
June 7, 2017 at 5:59 pm |
Nikki Haley is great. She shows what an Ambassador for the United States is supposed to do – represent the United States. What a concept huh?
She is young and getting the kind of international experience she needs. If she ever runs for POTUS – she’s got my vote.
June 7, 2017 at 8:50 pm |
Amen to that!

To continue the discussion abt the Transgender movement, this is exactly what I have been saying. And this statement should give EVERYONE pause, “Whitaker’s public school, while providing Whitaker individual-use facilities, asked for a preliminary injunction keeping group bathrooms designated by biological sex while Whitaker’s case moved forward, arguing that the presence of a biological female violated male students’ privacy. Whitaker insisted this arrangement prompted suicidal thoughts, and judges agreed that was grounds enough to grant her demands.”
If that is sufficient to make one suicidal, it seems to me there are bigger problems with this person. She had her OWN bathroom, and yet that was not enough. And the threat of committing suicide to get her way seems to be a bit of blackmail, but that could just be me. I am a fairly compassionate person, but this kind of thing just really pushes the envelope, IMO:
