[Post Millenial via Rantingly]'LGBTQ2SIA+'?? YJCMTSU
Oregon’s Democrat Governor Kate Brown welcomed 'LGBTQ2SIA+' kids to Oregon in a video posted to social media Thursday, after Texas classified medical gender transition child abuse.
"To all the LGBTQ2SIA+ children and young people across our United States. I want you to know that you are seen, you are loved, and you matter." This after Texas said that medical transition of children, with cross-sex hormones and puberty blockers, is classified as child abuse.
LGBTQ2SIA+ has come to stand for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, two spirit, intersex, allied or asexual, and more. Brown is regarded as the first openly bisexual Governor in the US.
Brown continued, "And to all Oregon’s youth, especially those who are trans, nonbinary, or questioning, the state of Oregon remains committed to honoring and protecting your right to be yourself."
Brown then attacked Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott following his directive that ordered investigations into circumstances where Texas children had been subjected to "...a wide variety of elective procedures for gender transitioning, including reassignment surgeries that can cause sterilization, mastectomies, removals of otherwise healthy body parts, and administration of puberty-blocking drugs or supraphysiologic doses of testosterone or estrogen."
Brown added, "Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s decision to remove trans kids from loving parents is especially cruel. This policy is another iteration of a long and painful history of discriminatory policies targeting our LGBTQ2SIA+ community."
On Wednesday, the Biden administration also pushed back against the order by updating Health and Human Services guidelines and sent a letter to child welfare agencies across the country opposing Abbott’s order.
[US News via Rantingly] The Clinton Foundation is planning another Clinton Global Initiative — the high-profile gathering of business, political and philanthropic leaders — this September in New York, according to a letter former President Bill Clinton sent to the foundation’s supporters Friday. "Send money"
Correction: “Send lotsa money.”
The initiative, which began meeting annually in 2005 and boasted speakers ranging from former presidents Barack Obama and Jimmy Carter to celebrity philanthropists like Bono and Ben Affleck, ended in 2016 during former Sen. Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, when questions were raised about the appearance of potential conflicts of interests if donors then had business before Hillary Clinton’s administration.
Bill Clinton said he wants to bring back the initiative because the kind of "cooperation and coordination" it created is urgently needed. "The COVID-19 pandemic has ripped the cover off of longstanding inequities and vulnerabilities across our global community," Bill Clinton wrote in the letter Friday. "The existential threat of climate change grows every day. Democracy is under assault around the world, most glaringly in Ukraine where Russia has launched an unjustified and unprovoked invasion that has put millions of lives in grave danger." "Send money"
Good lord. Covid, global inequities, climate change, and democracy under assault all in one paragraph? A truly impressive display of verbal efficiency to persuade the easily triggered... to send money.

Clintons must be low on cash. Resurrection of the family grifting business?
[PJ] In the early days of WWII, as Germany was pounding England in the Blitz, FDR sent supplies to our allies. He gave them U.S. Navy destroyers (small warships especially good for fighting submarines) and eventually dedicated our Atlantic fleet to defending convoys and firing on German U-boats. We were secretly at war with Germany. History refers to it as "belligerent neutrality." U.S. citizens had no idea.
FDR deceived the American people. He campaigned for the 1940 election by saying he would keep the United States out of another European war. Smarter people than I can argue if it was the right thing to do. My point is this: when Hitler was at the pinnacle of his power and military success and was about to break England’s back, FDR did something about it.
Putin has started what some people are referring to as WWIII. Biden’s response has been to join other nations in hitting Putin with some financial sanctions, which have thus far not changed Putin’s game plan.
Biden is also sending, depending on your source, roughly $74 million to Russia EVERY DAY for oil.
Why hit Putin with sanctions if you’re handing him mad stacks for oil? Something is up. Biden could open the Keystone XL pipeline. He could "drill, baby, drill" in the States and tap into what might be billions of barrels of oil, but White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki refers to that idea as a "misdiagnosis."
So instead, Biden is helping to pay for Putin’s war.

The Biden cartel is just playing the Pakistan model that worked so well for years. Smile, say the 'right' things, and keep dealing with the Taliban Russians.

Lots. We are buying much oil from Russia since Biden shut down of our energy independence. Now he's releasing oil from our strategic reserves. He is a threat to our security. An impeachable offense?
Gas prices jumped eleven cents overnight. This is one of the greatest contributors to inflation for the average person.

...and everything. It all has to be transported. The urban class doesn't even give it a moment's thought. It all 'magically' appears on the shelves and in the stores. The effect compounds through the entire economy.

I predict: The gummint political complex wants war. The people just saw COVIDmania die without a whimper. The people will decide "no war." The gummint political complex will be flummoxed.

[GovTrackInsider] Bill would create Cabinet-level Department of Reconciliation tasked to “end racism,” with budget at least 10% of Defense Department.
Rep. Al Green and his co-sponsors believe that issues relating to race in America — in areas including policing, wealth disparities, and ballot access — demand a similar 9/11-level “reckoning” moment that calls for another new Cabinet department.
It was introduced in the House on February 9 as H.Res. 919, by Rep. Al Green (D-TX9). Al is a pomaded pimp. Nuff said ODDS OF PASSAGE
Rep. Green introduced a prior version in early June 2020, during the peak week of protests over racial inequities and police misconduct in the wake of George Floyd’s murder. It attracted 33 Democratic cosponsors, but never received a committee vote despite Democrats controlling the chamber.
The current proposal has attracted an identical 33 cosponsors, all Democrats. It awaits a potential vote in the House Judiciary Committee.
Typical House of Representatives posturing for the rubes.

^ Will create years of work for "deprogrammers," "clean-up specialists" and so-forth. Cleaning out the military colleges will be fun work.

I'll go in as long as the department is to hunt down wokesters and transport them to their Utopia in a 'stan where they become one with nature. My bet is on cannibalism inside of two weeks.
