  1. There's a knot in SF's throat this morning.......SF's parents grew up with her and her husband near Van Lear, KY. Visited there and her many times. She was truly a wonderful person and a beautiful lady. RIP and say hi to Mom and Dad for me.
  2. https://pagesix.com/2022/10/03/billy-eichner-blames-straight-people-for-bros-flopping/?_ga=2.3378416.1353249850.1664799537-640333754.1653394742 Billy Eichner thinks straight people are to blame for his gay rom-com flopping at the box office over its opening weekend. The comedian, who co-wrote, executive-produced and stars in “Bros,” penned a lengthy Twitter thread on Sunday in response to the film making only $4.8 million in the US and Canada, approximately 40 percent less than expected. “Even with glowing reviews, great Rotten Tomatoes scores, an A CinemaScore etc, straight people, especially in certain parts of the country, just didn’t show up for Bros. And that’s disappointing but it is what it is,” Eichner, 44, wrote, adding, “That’s just the world we live in, unfortunately.” Urging moviegoers to see “Bros,” which has been marketed as the first film featuring an entirely LGBTQIA+ cast to get a wide release, the “Billy on the Street” star quipped, “Everyone who ISN’T a homophobic weirdo should go see BROS tonight! You will have a blast! And it *is* special and uniquely powerful to see this particular story on a big screen, esp for queer folks who don’t get this opportunity often. I love this movie so much. GO BROS!!!” “Bros,” which had a $22 million production budget, landed in fourth place at the box office, trailing behind “Smile” ($22 million), “Don’t Worry Darling” ($7.3 million) and “The Woman King” ($7 million). Despite its disappointing debut, Eichner insisted audiences are loving the flick, which also stars Luke Macfarlane, Ts Madison and Monica Raymund. “Last night I snuck in and sat in the back of a sold out theater playing ‘Bros’ in LA,” he began the same Twitter thread. “The audience howled with laughter start to finish, burst into applause at the end and some were wiping away tears as they walked out. It was truly magical. Really. I am VERY proud of this movie.” The “Parks and Recreation” alum previously joked to Page Six that he was “f–king” his hunky co-star Macfarlane, 42, in real life and that the sex was “amazing.” “We spent a lot of time together, and we still like each other … we’re not dating,” he said at the New York City premiere of the Nicholas Stoller-helmed film. “It’s very ‘Don’t Worry Darling,’” he quipped, referencing director Olivia Wilde’s relationship with her movie’s star Harry Styles, whom she met on the set of their psychological thriller. Hmmmm - SF hasn't been to a theatre in over a decade or more, so I really don't think I am to blame here...... The reality (IMHO) is his acting isn't appealing to many people. I kinda liked his character in Parks and Rec, but as a leading role, I kinda think he's a bit overrated......I guess he is right though, the storyline/topic isn't one of my top choices for entertainment.
  3. https://nypost.com/2022/10/03/biden-thanks-coast-guard-member-for-hurricane-heroics-before-vax-mandate-firing/ President Biden thanked a US Coast Guard member for saving lives during Hurricane Ian — only for the hero rescue swimmer to reveal he will soon be discharged for not being vaccinated against COVID-19. “I told him how proud of him I was and thanked him for all the work he and his Coasties are doing to save lives,” Biden said Friday of his call with Aviation Survival Technician Second Class Zach Loesch, Fox News reported. The president also spoke with Lt. Cmdr. Christopher Hooper. “The President thanked them for saving lives and asked for a report on the work that continues to rescue Floridians. He also asked if they needed any additional support that he can provide to accelerate successful rescues,” the White House said in a readout. But despite the tribute, Loesch told Breitbart News that he is among the service members poised to be discharged in 30 to 60 days for not following Biden’s mandate making the jabs mandatory in the military. SF is reasonably sure the people these guys rescued in Florida last week and over the weekend probably weren't concerned if their rescuers had been vaccinated for CoVid or not.
  4. The FBI has found more evidence against Trump, They found out Trump colored outside the lines when he was in Kindergarten. The DOJ said no one is above coloring outside the lines. Well that surely will do him in now.......Jeez.....
  5. Isn't New York City supposed to be underwater by now? (According to Al Gore's book)..... Interesting post from David Moe (B.Sc. in Chemistry & Mathematics, University of Calgary (Graduated 1970)Upvoted by, B.S. Accounting & Mathematics, University of Houston-Clear Lake (1994) Author) The ocean is not rising at 1/2 foot per year, according to NASA satellite measurements, it is rising at 3.2 millimetres per year. That works out to one foot per century. At that rate, it will take 600 years for it to rise 6 feet. Just ignore everything that rocket scientist Al Gore said in his book. 600 years is a long time to raise the land level 6 feet, in fact the land will rise 12 feet on on its own if they don’t take away the grass clippings, fallen leaves, and dust falling out of the air. I had that experience with an old house I used to own. The house was 100 years old and the lawn was 2 feet higher than when the house was built. Left to its own devices, the land will rise an average of two feet per century. That’s how the ancient artifacts and dinosaurs got buried so deep.
  6. https://nypost.com/2022/09/21/ny-ag-letitia-james-sues-donald-trump-kids-and-company/ New York Attorney General Letitia James on Wednesday filed a $250 million lawsuit against former President Donald Trump, his kids Eric, Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr., and the Trump Organization — alleging “staggering” fraud in the family real estate business. The 220-page civil suit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court is the culmination of a three-year investigation by the Democrat’s office to determine whether the Trump Organization’s assets were exaggerated for loan, insurance and tax purposes. It seeks to tear away Trump’s ability to run businesses in the Empire State and to prohibit him and his company from buying up commercial real estate for several years. “Donald Trump falsely inflated his net worth by billions of dollars to unjustly enrich himself, and cheat the system, thereby cheating all of us,” James said at a news conference announcing the suit. “Claiming you have money that you do not have does not amount to the art of the deal, it’s the art of the steal,” she said, referring to Trump’s 1987 book. SF would have to think if the charges listed against DJT had any factual basis, he would already be in jail......So the goal is obviously to keep litigating him until he isn't running in 2024.
  7. https://nypost.com/2022/09/21/canadian-school-backs-trans-teacher-with-giant-fake-boobs/ A Canadian school board is “standing behind” a trans teacher who sparked protests after turning up to classes with “clownish” giant prosthetic breasts. The blond high school teacher went viral after being filmed operating a cut-off saw in class while wearing tight black shorts and balloon-like breasts drooping around the waist in a tight, striped top. Other images taken by pupils at the school in Oakville, about 20 miles outside Toronto, showed the same teacher in other outfits, with huge nipples protruding from the fake bust. The Halton District School Board confirmed that the person getting “significant attention online” was an Oakville High School teacher. It refused to identify the educator while warning that the wrong person had been named in online reports. Some disturbed pupils have skipped classes held by the Oakville industrial arts teacher, who began identifying as female last year, according to the Toronto Sun. The Halton District School Board “stands behind” the “gender rights” of the teacher despite uproar over the fake breasts that a lawyer calls “clownish” and even “sexist.” “The kids here most definitely don’t think it’s normal … but realistically we can’t say anything,” the paper quoted one pupil as having tweeted. But “I don’t think the school can fire” the teacher, who still identified as a man last year, the pupil said. Halton District School Board Chair Margo Shuttleworth also confirmed there have already been protests and angry complaints. “I do know there have been phone calls made to the school that haven’t been the most pleasant in nature,” Shuttleworth told the Toronto Sun. The board was “creating a safety plan” for the teacher to “make sure she is protected” and can continue leading classes amid the protests, the board chair said. Protecting “gender rights” is “the stance the school board is taking and they are standing behind the teacher,” Shuttleworth told the local paper. One high school pupil reportedly said that “the kids here most definitely don’t think it’s normal.” “This teacher (who teaches shop) is an extremely effective teacher,” she insisted. “All the kids really love being in the class,” the board chair said — while conceding “there had to be some disconnect” because pupils recorded the teacher in class. Employment lawyer Sunira Chaudhry disagreed with the school’s stance — telling the Toronto paper that supporting such unprofessional attire was in fact “creating a wedge” in gender rights. “It’s clownish,” Chaudhry insisted of the teacher’s image. “It seems sexist to me, because of the exaggerated nature of these breasts with nipples protruding. I think a lot of young women at the school wouldn’t just feel uncomfortable, they’d feel mocked.” She insisted a school would equally be expected to step in “if a teacher came in with natural breasts, nipples protruding, a low-cut top and no bra.” The outrage “has nothing to do with something like transgender rights,” the Toronto Sun’s op-ed editor insisted. Schools are expected to step in and say, “We need you as a teacher to come to school and dress professionally,” she stressed. The Toronto Sun’s op-ed editor, Anthony Fury, also insisted that “parents (and students) are right to be concerned.” “The situation just isn’t normal and shouldn’t be allowed to continue,” the columnist wrote. “This has nothing to do with something like transgender rights,” Fury wrote, saying it “goes beyond an incident of ‘wokeness’ or ‘political correctness.'” “The story has gone viral not because the teacher identifies as trans. It’s gone viral because everyone knows it’s completely inappropriate for someone to present themselves this way in a professional environment,” the columnist wrote. Literally SMH......What is next?
  8. All is right, I mean white, in Martha’s Vineyard again. Close call but the diversity crisis has been averted.
  9. https://nypost.com/2022/09/16/biden-says-gop-govs-un-american-playing-politics-with-human-beings/ President Biden has accused Republican governors of being “un-American” and “playing politics with human beings” by relocating border-crossers to Democrat-run sanctuary hotspots. Speaking to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute Gala late Thursday, Biden insisted that his administration was “committed to fixing the immigration system.” But “instead of working with us on solutions, Republicans are playing politics with human beings, using them as props,” the president said, hours after dozens of migrants arrived in Martha’s Vineyard and others were dropped off outside Vice President Kamala Harris’ home in Washington, DC. “What they’re doing is simply wrong. It’s un-American, it’s reckless,” Biden raged of the governors’ dramatic protest of his immigration policies. I am throwing the BS flag on this one. What is MORE un-American (according to lunatic liberals like former VP Biden) than not welcoming illegal immigrants into their own "sanctuary cities"? These border state Governors have had to allow over 2 million illegals into their cities this year, but it's "un-American" to provide transportation to somewhere else in the US that "virtue signals" that "all peoples are welcome here"? NO. It's no secret SF didn't vote for this guy, and I don't hold back criticism, but this time the former Vice President has crossed a line with his comments. He's the idiot that opened the border as far as he legally could after Trump, halted the wall construction and "covertly" invited them to come on in. Now his border Czar former Senator Harris won't comment or acknowledge the illegal aliens planted right outside her door. Yeah, SF is beginning to call the current administration by their former titles, since it is very apparent they have no intention to actually do anything worthwhile.
  10. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11218077/Fox-hosts-hit-filmmaker-Ken-Burns-comparison-Marthas-Vineyard-Holocaust.html '50 migrants arriving on a gorgeous island is exactly like Hitler slaughtering 6 million Jews!' Tucker Carlson mocks liberal filmmaker Ken Burns' furious claim that DeSantis flying illegal migrants to Martha's Vineyard is just like the HOLOCAUST Liberal's reactions are just priceless......Sanctuary cities are great until migrants actually want sanctuary there.
  11. https://nypost.com/2022/09/15/marthas-vineyard-in-chaos-after-desantis-ships-migrants-to-liberal-enclave/ The posh liberal enclave of Martha’s Vineyard has been thrown into chaos by the arrival of two planeloads of migrants sent there by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, according to local reports. Roughly 50 migrants were flown to the famed Massachusetts island — constituting what the local tourism board called a “humanitarian crisis’’ Thursday. “This is an ongoing situation,’’ wrote a county emergency-management rep in a statement, noting that local authorities “are actively collaborating to develop a coordinated regional response.” “We have reached out to our State and Federal partners for additional and long term support and assistance.’’ Some local pols learned about the new arrivals during a Wednesday night meeting of the West Tisbury Select Board — with Town Administrator Jennifer Rand saying she’d been receiving “furious texts” from residents, the MV Times reported. “I’m a little unclear about the situation, as is everybody, because everybody is scrambling a bit,” Rand said. Rand said the migrants were headed to the St. Andrews Church in Edgartown and might be given short-term housing at the Martha’s Vineyard Agricultural Society’s “Ag Hall.” But that won’t work for long because it doesn’t have beds or showers, she said, adding that feeding the migrants could be difficult, too, because the Martha’s Vineyard Red Cross was “not participating” in the official response. In a prepared statement Thursday, the Red Cross said it’s “been in contact with local emergency management, and while we have not yet been asked to provide any local support, we stand ready to do that. Lisa Belcastro, the coordinator for the Martha’s Vineyard homeless shelter, called the emergency housing arrangements for migrants a “stop-gap.” She suggested they will eventually need to be moved to a different location. “At some point in time they have to move from here to somewhere else,” Belcastro told local news outlets. “We cannot, we do not, have the services to take care of 50 immigrants.” She noted the island is already tight on housing. “We’re in a housing crisis as we are on this island,” Belcastro said. “So we don’t, we can’t, house everyone here that lives here and works here.” One snarky Twitter user quipped, “A quick Air BNB search came up with 297 homes currently avaliable. I’m sure they have a lot of empty summer homes avalible.” “We don’t have refugee services, I had no idea about any of this,” she said. “I only found out because one of them gave me their folder.” Local high-school senior Maria Sanchez Roa, who was born in Colombia, said she was recruited to serve as an emergency translator. “I was home watching Princess Diana videos when my mom burst through the door and told me to go to the high school,” she said. “I’m here because I’m a Hispanic kid who speaks Spanish.” Martha’s Vineyard has long been a favored vacation spot for left-leaning celebrities and Democratic pols including former President Barack Obama, who owns an $11.75 million estate where he celebrated his 60th birthday with a blow-out party last year. But former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told Fox News that “I doubt they’ll embrace” the migrants on Martha’s Vineyard. “You know, these are all sanctuary cities until they’re in their sanctuary,” he said Wednesday night on “Jesse Watters Primetime.” Online responses to the reports about the migrant arrivals included outrage from readers, including one who said, “Any blame lays at the feet of President Biden.” “Thousands of people pour into the country daily and the federal government refuses to set any policy whatsoever other than the door is wide open,” wrote Fred from Edgartown. “What’s most amazing is that we have a serious humanitarian issue and the current administration has no idea what to do (anybody seen or heard from the border czar? Still no root causes). Blaming over run governors of border states who never claimed to be sanctuary havens is ignoring the problem.” Eric, from Tisbury, called on Gov. Charlie Baker to “open up barracks” on nearby Cape Cod to house the migrants while the state figures out what to do. “We do not have enough housing for the people living here,” Eric said. Helen from Vineyard Haven wrote, “Now I see why they want a new giant school in Vineyard Haven and ASAP.” “I have been in tears for weeks over our taxes in VH going through the roof and worrying how to pay them, now this! I cant take much more, I senior citizen, alone and I am a 7th generation island native on a very fixed income,” Helen wrote. A move that has garnered the attention of the country. Martha's Vineyard. 2 million (so far this year) that have (illegally) crossed the Southern border and they can't be sent back. The Governors of Texas, Florida and Arizona have had enough. 48 people to MV and they are losing their minds. Early happy hour has been postponed until they can find someone to deal with this. “We’re in a housing crisis as we are on this island,” Belcastro said. “So we don’t, we can’t, house everyone here that lives here and works here.” One snarky Twitter user quipped, “A quick Air BNB search came up with 297 homes currently avaliable. I’m sure they have a lot of empty summer homes avalible.” Biden (aka Kamala Harris - Border Czar) ain't helping much either..... https://nypost.com/2022/09/15/white-house-shutting-down-dhs-plans-to-mitigate-crisis-at-southern-border-report/

Numerous liberals have mocked the U.K. for mourning the death of Queen Elizabeth while they previously mourned the death of George Floyd. Corcoran, who appears on Sky News and other major outlets, responded, “Dear Americans who mock us for mourning our beloved queen. She dedicated her entire life to her duty and our country even just two days before her death.” “You mourned a man who pointed a gun at a pregnant woman by burning cities to the ground,” she continued. “We are not the same.” Prior to his death, Floyd was arrested and charged with aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. Court documents revealed that he and five other men barged into a woman’s apartment, and Floyd pushed a pistol into her abdomen before searching for items to steal. She's not wrong.............“You mourned a man who pointed a gun at a pregnant woman by burning cities to the ground,” she continued. “We are not the same.”
  15. https://www.politico.com/news/2022/09/12/justice-subpoena-trump-aides-00056274 The Justice Department has issued some 40 subpoenas to aides of former President Donald Trump regarding Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, POLITICO confirmed Monday. The subpoenas, first reported by The New York Times, are a major step forward in the ongoing investigation of the events leading up to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. They also come as Trump is dealing with a separate inquiry into his handling of presidential records and classified material that he took with him to his home in Florida after the end of his presidency. Trump’s lawyers and the Justice Department are currently in a protracted legal battle over the custody of those records. Former Trump adviser Stephen Bannon was the first to discuss the recent batch of subpoenas, saying on his podcast last week that 35 had been issued. That number appears to have been a slight lowballing of the actual figure. Among matters that investigators are reportedly looking into is Trump’s post-election fundraising and his efforts to overturn the election by appointing false electors. As POLITICO previously reported, a grand jury issued subpoenas last week seeking information about Trump’s Save America PAC. On his show Monday night, Fox News host Tucker Carlson said he had obtained a copy of a subpoena that was issued and that it pertained to “any claim that the vice president and/or the president of the Senate had the authority to reject or to choose not to count presidential electors.” POLITICO was not able to independently verify the language of the subpoena. 40 Subpoenas - Desperation seems to be setting in on the January 6 committee. Even the My Pillow guy got his phone confiscated......
