vdare--2020-08-19--Ann Coulter: The Jared Kushner Achievement Award Goes to … Kamala!

As has been duly noted , The New York Times ’ front page celebrating Biden ’ s announcement of Kamala Harris as his running mate rivaled its moon landing coverage .
A gigantic photo of a saintlike Harris took up half of the space above the fold , under a 2-inch headline : “ HARRIS JOINS BIDEN TICKET , ACHIEVING A FIRST.
” Specifically , the “ first ” was : “ Woman of color in No .
2 slot of major party.
” History was being made !
“ It was historic most of all , and especially sweet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ is the first Black woman and the first person of Indian descent to be nominated for national office by a major party ” … “ It ’ s a stand-alone milestone , irrespective of who the opponent is.
” No offense , but Harris was picked because she ’ s a woman of color .
So it ’ s not really that amazing that she ’ s a woman of color .
She didn ’ t swim the English Channel .
She didn ’ t even win a primary .
She ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ New York Times !
How about devoting three-fourths of your front page with a 2-inch headline to Trump ’ s picking a young real estate investor as his chief White House adviser ?
At 34 , Jared Kushner Is Youngest Top White House Aide in History For Jared Kushner , The Impossible Just Takes a Little Longer If Democrats wanted us to treat Kamala ’ s selection as an historic achievement , the process needed to be color-blind .
All the gushing about THE FIRST WOMAN OF COLOR AS VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Nigerian who got into ALL EIGHT IVY LEAGUES !
Ever heard of affirmative action ?
In the same year , a thousand white and Asian kids with the exact same credentials didn ’ t get into any Ivy League schools .
Biden made perfectly clear—as did his supporters and sponsors — that he would be considering only women of color .
Oh my gosh !
A woman of color has somehow climbed to the top of the greasy pole !
Kamala ’ s big achievement is that she was better than the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Democratic Party .
Of which there were five—maybe seven , as long we ’ re counting Jamaican Indian Americans as “ African American ” : a mayor , some representatives and a member of Obama ’ s administration who ’ d never run for office .
Whatever Harris ’ selection represents , it ’ s not a triumph .
Harris didn ’ t swim fastest , climb highest , run farthest .
( She didn ’ t even pass the bar exam on her first try , a failure she shares @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama . )
The fix was in .
Biden announced an extremely limited set of qualifications that only Harris had .
But liberals are standing in their kitchens sobbing about Kamala ’ s “ historic ” achievement .
The dream , so long deferred , has finally been attained !
This would be like Jared ’ s father bragging about his boy getting into Harvard .
We all know Jared was a middling high school student and had mediocre SATs , but his dad greased the skids for him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his getting into Harvard .
Let the conversation drift to something else .
ABC ’ s “ Good Morning America ” : “ It is an historic morning .
Kamala Harris joining Joe Biden on the Democratic Party ticket .
… History will be made again today when Kamala Harris joins Joe Biden … Kamala Harris will be speaking out , now , as the first black woman , the first Asian American tapped to be vice president.
” NBC ’ s the “ Today ” show : “ … the first black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ picked as a vice presidential candidate .
… As Joe Biden ’ s newly minted running mate , Sen. Kamala Harris has already made history.
” Trying to force the facts to fit the frenzy , Harris ’ every utterance is treated as incandescent brilliance .
The New York Times was still swooning over this incomprehensible remark Harris made to the paper last summer : “ Policy has to be relevant .
That ’ s my guiding principle : Is it relevant ?
Not , ‘ Is it a beautiful sonnet ?
’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to WokeTranslate.com and got this response : We analyzed your selected phrase from : [ KAMALA HARRIS ] using our proprietary SayWhat software , and it translated as : “ OK look , I am one-trillion percent an empty suit , surviving entirely on identity politics and media complicity .

As has been duly noted, the New York Times’ front page celebrating Biden’s announcement of Kamala Harris as his running mate rivaled its moon landing coverage. A gigantic photo of a saintlike Harris took up half of the space above the fold, under a 2-inch headline: “HARRIS JOINS BIDEN TICKET, ACHIEVING A FIRST.”
Specifically, the “first” was: “Woman of color in No. 2 slot of major party.”
History was being made! “It was historic most of all, and especially sweet for many Black women” … Harris “is the first Black woman and the first person of Indian descent to be nominated for national office by a major party” … “It’s a stand-alone milestone, irrespective of who the opponent is.”
(That last quote was from Vanita Gupta, [Tweet her], who was head of the civil rights division in Obama’s Justice Department. As I keep telling you, Black America, immigrants are getting all the good diversity jobs.)
No offense, but Harris was picked because she’s a woman of color. So it’s not really that amazing that she’s a woman of color. She didn’t swim the English Channel. She didn’t even win a primary. She’s not Margaret Thatcher.
She’s Jared Kushner. (Including the Jewish spouse!)
Hey, New York Times! How about devoting three-fourths of your front page with a 2-inch headline to Trump’s picking a young real estate investor as his chief White House adviser?
At 34, Jared Kushner Is Youngest Top White House Aide in History
Jared Kushner, Shatterer of Ceilings
For Jared Kushner, The Impossible Just Takes a Little Longer
(Me screaming in the corner: “He’s the son-in-law of the person who picked him!!!”)
If Democrats wanted us to treat Kamala’s selection as an historic achievement, the process needed to be color-blind. All the gushing about THE FIRST WOMAN OF COLOR AS VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE is like the articles every year gushing about the Nigerian who got into ALL EIGHT IVY LEAGUES!
Ever heard of affirmative action? In the same year, a thousand white and Asian kids with the exact same credentials didn’t get into any Ivy League schools.
Biden made perfectly clear—as did his supporters and sponsors — that he would be considering only women of color. Oh my gosh! A woman of color has somehow climbed to the top of the greasy pole!
Kamala’s big achievement is that she was better than the other women of color with visible positions in the Democratic Party. Of which there were five—maybe seven, as long we’re counting Jamaican Indian Americans as “African American”: a mayor, some representatives and a member of Obama’s administration who’d never run for office.
Whatever Harris’ selection represents, it’s not a triumph. Harris didn’t swim fastest, climb highest, run farthest. (She didn’t even pass the bar exam on her first try, a failure she shares with the other most-admired liberal women, Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama.)
The fix was in. Biden announced an extremely limited set of qualifications that only Harris had.
But liberals are standing in their kitchens sobbing about Kamala’s “historic” achievement. The dream, so long deferred, has finally been attained!
This would be like Jared’s father bragging about his boy getting into Harvard. We all know Jared was a middling high school student and had mediocre SATs, but his dad greased the skids for him. Maybe don’t bring up his getting into Harvard. Let the conversation drift to something else.
Not liberals!

Acceptable are "Black Lives Matter" and all kinds of LGBTQetc. slogans and banners.
The double standard here is that BLM and LGBTQetc. are somehow not "discriminatory" or racist, or even political. And the ban on "Blue Lives" and "All Lives" is because they're implicitly white.
Of course, Corporate HR departments are always anti-white, and they get their power from "hostile environment" law [ What Speech Does "Hostile Work Environment" Harassment Law Restrict?, by Eugene Volokh, 85 Geo. L.J. 627, 647 (1997)].

About 500 protesters were walking down the block near the McCloskey ’ s home to bypass road closures that blocked access to the mayor ’ s home , according to Daniel Shular , a local reporter who recorded the incident .

That ’ s when the couple came out of their house holding guns .
They exchanged words with a couple of protesters , but no one was hurt and no shots were fired .
The McCloskey ’ s were later charged with unlawful use of a weapon .
However , President Trump became quick fans of the couple .
White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters days after the incident , President Donald Trump “ said it is absolutely absurd , what is happening to the McCloskeys.
” Mark McCloskey defended @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ in imminent fear they would run me over , kill me.
” “ I was a person scared for my life , protecting my wife , my home , my hearth , my livelihood .

McCloskey added it is “ ridiculous ” to consider him the face of opposition to the Black Lives Matter movement after the incident .
“ I didn ’ t care what color they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what their motivation was , ” he said .
“ I was frightened .
I was assaulted.

Nick Sandmann, too. The boy who smirked (with apologies to Harry Potter, “the boy who lived”), and then successfully sued — and settled — with those corporate media outlets who defamed him.
All across America, people wait for the pendulum to swing back towards sanity. That Mark and Patricia McCloskey and Nick Sandmann will be speaking at the 2020 RNC Convention is a powerful indication the pendulum is headed back toward not only law and order, but a President Trump prepared to rally the Historic American Nation against a Democrat Party that’s tipped.
And this, seemingly insignificant, is the ultimate white pill.

It's very sad that Tucker Carlson, whom I admire and watch every night, is in a virtual straightjacket and is hobbled by what he cannot say on his show. When he talks about anti-white hate crime, he's not allowed to say the killer was black.
Even Tucker not allowed to mention Cannon’s, killer’s race, you’re supposed to tell from pics https://t.co/yKdmWBI2bZ — Peter Brimelow (@peterbrimelow) August 14, 2020
When he says the Chinese love their country, despite the repression, he's not allowed to say it's because they are mostly all Han Chinese.
All of us are in the same boat. Whites are forbidden to speak the truth. Whites are forced to feel hate, shame and guilt for their own actions and their own being.
Anyone who has eyes to see can readily identify the profound differences between whites and blacks. The general population accepts many material physical differences, but somehow these differences stop at the brain. How can that be? It doesn’t!
The "inequities" are not due to racism, but to nature. If you have eyes, you can see for yourself. There’s overwhelming evidence that blacks do not perform well, currently or historically, in any country where they live, whether it be a predominantly white or black society. But there exists an overwhelming ideological tenet and a hope and a prayer that this cannot be true. A moral imperative that people who question this truism are morally defective.
Any attempt to even open up this discussion results in massive pathological and irrational behavior for tens of millions of people, including huge numbers of whites. This leads to a tortuous and violent road for those of all races and overwhelming bigotry and hatred. Attempting to bring about and indoctrinate ourselves and our children with this erroneous concept of "equality" has failed and each failure has brought about more hysterical measures that lead to more tyrannical and pathological "solutions." Every failure increases frustration and desperation.
This results in an even deeper belief that racism is so prevalent and insidious that it permeates every institution. It brings about the idea that the only way to solve this problem is via tyranny and the destruction of every cultural, political and financial institution in the West. It is rarely looked upon as whites trying to do the right thing. They must be taught to hate themselves more, for what else could be causing these failures to achieve the desired results. All of these attempts for equality are hopeless because it is based upon a lie. Perhaps, the final result will be a Marxist dictatorship with white enslavement and acceptance of their fate.

Kendi , with his barely 3 digit IQ blows TNC ’ s mark away on the Bux/IQ metric with a $ 10 million payoff from Jack Dorsey , founder of Twitter .
@ Jack , you just gave $ 10 million dollars to a `` researcher '' whose IQ barely reaches 3 digits : From a 2019 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : https : //t.co/wOtCv63rOU pic.twitter.com/emuYeXQztE — Steve Sailer ( @ Steve_Sailer ) August 20 , 2020 Kendi was recently ( July 1 , 2020 ) also awarded Boston U.
’ s endowed chair previously held by Elie Wiesel , the Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Humanities , which honors the GOP Treasury Secretary under Harding , Coolidge and Hoover .
So the Summer of George has been very , very good for Ibram X. Kendi .
In The New Criterion , Theodore Dalrymple reviews the books of both Kendi and Robin DiAngelo : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo & How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi .
Compared with the labour of reading through these volumes , all other labour—the labour of thieves on the treadmill , of children in factories , of negroes in sugar plantations—is an agreeable recreation .
These two best-selling books about racism—White Fragility , by Robin DiAngelo , and How to Be an Antiracist , by Ibram X. Kendi—are tedious not because they are long but because of their almost unrelievedly hectoring tone.1 You feel in reading them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ party by a monomaniac who will not let you escape until he has preached you into total silence , if not acquiescence .
I can only conclude from their sales that people like being hectored .
Of the two books , Kendi ’ s is slightly the better , for it is part-memoir and occasionally has an anecdote from his life that is not told wholly through the lens of ideology , and which actually does speak to the undoubted difficulties of blacks in America with which it is easy to sympathize .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ rhetorician with little regard to or for the truth : … He differs from DiAngelo in believing that it is not just whites who can be racists , but all human beings , and in this sense he is somewhat better than she .
But he is terribly muddled on the question of how far it is permissible to attribute group characteristics to populations without being racist .
I do not think it is worthwhile trying to extract a coherent doctrine from him .
He is , however , consistent in one great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not distinguish inequity from inequality .
He never uses the latter word .
He does not appear to understand there could be no greater inequity than equality in a world of effort or lack of it .
He believes that all differences in outcome between groups can be the result only of prejudice and discrimination , and that if the latter were removed the former would disappear .
Nor does he recognize , even faintly , that to bring about the equality between groups that he believes is the only equitable arrangement for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would make North Korea seem like a libertarian ’ s dream… .
For him , the history of the world in general , and of America in particular , consists of genocide , slavery , and exploitation , and nothing else , carried out exclusively , as it happens , by Europeans , although Kendi does not hate whites qua whites .
In Kendi ’ s telling , there is no achievement in this world , only perfidy ( DiAngelo ’ s historiography is identical ) .
Unearned privilege is not for him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ neither does he say a word in praise , or even in acknowledgment , of the immense , if inevitably flawed , inheritance of Western civilization .
At the end of his book , Kendi tells us that he has developed cancer of the colon at an unusually early age .
His wife , alas , developed cancer of the breast , likewise at an early age .
This is very unlucky , and we feel for them .
Both , however , receive the advanced medical treatment that might save their lives @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if they had lived at any other time , or in most places , in human history .
Kendi does not stop to wonder why this should be or how it came about .
He has not the intellectual curiosity or detachment from his ego even to ask .
Besides , to do so would not fit with his agenda , which is plainly totalitarian and power-mad .
Perhaps the most interesting question raised by these books is why , when they are so badly written , self-indulgent , and intellectually nugatory , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the spirit of what Karl Popper called reinforced dogmatism , they should be so popular among the Western intelligentsia .
Let us hope that this is not a question for an Edward Gibbon of the next millennium to answer .

Kendi was recently (July 1, 2020) also awarded Boston U.’s endowed chair previously held by Elie Wiesel, the Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Humanities, which honors the GOP Treasury Secretary under Harding, Coolidge and Hoover. So the Summer of George has been very, very good for Ibram X. Kendi.
In The New Criterion, Theodore Dalrymple reviews the books of both Kendi and Robin DiAngelo:
Hypocrite hector by Anthony Daniels
Robin Diangelo
White Fragility
Beacon Press, 192 pages, $16.00
Ibram X. Kendi
How to Be an Antiracist
One World, 320 pages, $27.00
A review of White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo & How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi.
Compared with the labour of reading through these volumes, all other labour—the labour of thieves on the treadmill, of children in factories, of negroes in sugar plantations—is an agreeable recreation.
—Thomas Babington Macaulay, Burleigh and his Times (1832)
These two best-selling books about racism—White Fragility, by Robin DiAngelo, and How to Be an Antiracist, by Ibram X. Kendi—are tedious not because they are long but because of their almost unrelievedly hectoring tone.1 You feel in reading them that you have been cornered at a party by a monomaniac who will not let you escape until he has preached you into total silence, if not acquiescence. I can only conclude from their sales that people like being hectored.
Of the two books, Kendi’s is slightly the better, for it is part-memoir and occasionally has an anecdote from his life that is not told wholly through the lens of ideology, and which actually does speak to the undoubted difficulties of blacks in America with which it is easy to sympathize. …
Like DiAngelo, he is a rhetorician with little regard to or for the truth: … He differs from DiAngelo in believing that it is not just whites who can be racists, but all human beings, and in this sense he is somewhat better than she. But he is terribly muddled on the question of how far it is permissible to attribute group characteristics to populations without being racist. I do not think it is worthwhile trying to extract a coherent doctrine from him.
He is, however, consistent in one great error throughout his book: he does not distinguish inequity from inequality. He never uses the latter word. He does not appear to understand there could be no greater inequity than equality in a world of effort or lack of it. He believes that all differences in outcome between groups can be the result only of prejudice and discrimination, and that if the latter were removed the former would disappear. Nor does he recognize, even faintly, that to bring about the equality between groups that he believes is the only equitable arrangement for society would require a totalitarian regime that would make North Korea seem like a libertarian’s dream….
For him, the history of the world in general, and of America in particular, consists of genocide, slavery, and exploitation, and nothing else, carried out exclusively, as it happens, by Europeans, although Kendi does not hate whites qua whites. In Kendi’s telling, there is no achievement in this world, only perfidy (DiAngelo’s historiography is identical). Unearned privilege is not for him the inevitable precondition of civilized existence; neither does he say a word in praise, or even in acknowledgment, of the immense, if inevitably flawed, inheritance of Western civilization.
At the end of his book, Kendi tells us that he has developed cancer of the colon at an unusually early age. His wife, alas, developed cancer of the breast, likewise at an early age. This is very unlucky, and we feel for them. Both, however, receive the advanced medical treatment that might save their lives, as they would not have done if they had lived at any other time, or in most places, in human history. Kendi does not stop to wonder why this should be or how it came about. He has not the intellectual curiosity or detachment from his ego even to ask. Besides, to do so would not fit with his agenda, which is plainly totalitarian and power-mad.
Perhaps the most interesting question raised by these books is why, when they are so badly written, self-indulgent, and intellectually nugatory, when they are so plainly written in the spirit of what Karl Popper called reinforced dogmatism, they should be so popular among the Western intelligentsia. Let us hope that this is not a question for an Edward Gibbon of the next millennium to answer.

As a cradle Catholic and recipient of Notre Dame's Laetare Medal, Joe Biden is outspoken in declaring that the principles and beliefs of his Catholic faith guide his public life.
"Joe is a man of faith," was a recurring theme at the Democratic convention that nominated him to become our second Catholic president.
Biden has often affirmed the centrality of his faith to his decisions in public life. In a video released on the eve of the convention, he credited Pope Francis and the nuns who educated him with making him the man he is today.
Yet, when the Supreme Court ruled in July that the Little Sisters of the Poor could not be forced, by an Obamacare mandate, to provide contraceptives to employees, Biden called the decision "disappointing."
For Joe has evolved over a half-century. He is now an all-in Roe v. Wade Catholic who supports a woman's right to abortion and believes the tax dollars of his fellow Catholics should pay for the abortions of women who cannot afford them.

"Circumstances have changed," is how Biden explained his flip-flop.
Biden's moral journey from right-to-life to pro-abortion Democrat has not gone unnoticed within the Church. A dozen years ago, when Biden was still a senator, a bishop in Scranton, with Joe in mind, declared:
"I will not tolerate any politician who claims to be a faithful Catholic who is not genuinely pro-life. ... No Catholic politician who supports the culture of death should approach Holy Communion."

"Holy Communion signifies we are one with God, each other, and the Church," said Morey. "Any public figure who advocates for abortion places himself or herself out of Church teaching."
Biden also supports the restoration of federal funds for Planned Parenthood, a provider of abortions. Nor is life the only issue on which Biden has taken his leave of the teachings of the Church in which he was raised.

Biden once believed this, or said he did for most of his life, for that is the way he campaigned in Delaware and voted in D.C.
What has changed is the Democratic Party Biden now heads. The precepts of LGBT now dictate "moral truth" in the party and platform of Joe Biden, who now calls transgender rights "the civil rights issue of our time."

In St. Louis, a mounted statue in the city's Forest Park of the 13th century Saint and King Louis IX, the French monarch for whom the city was named, who led the Sixth and Seventh Crusades, is under siege.
Radicals are even demanding that the city's name be changed.
On right-to-life, the declared position of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is clear: "Taxpayer dollars should never fund abortion."

"America's Pastor" Max Lucado Publicly  "Apologizes" for the Sins of Previous Generations of White Americans

Max Lucado has been called `` America 's Pastor '' and `` The Best Preacher in America '' and has written about 100 books .
Lucado recently engaged in a weird public apology for the racism of past generations of white Americans .
Where does the New Testament talk about such a thing ?

Are you ready to hear Max Lucado 's shocking confession of sheer , unmitigated wickedness ?
See , Max Lucado let the word `` wetback '' form on his lips .
So he 's guilty of all this collective sin also .
You do n't want that COVID-19 jumping from one parked car to another .

Stronger Together has been meeting regularly to find ways to bring the community together as the coronavirus pandemic drives people physically apart , said Dorian Williams , an organizer and Black pastor at Texas Christian Fellowship .

“ That I ’ m sorry for what happened to your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It is a “ new day ” for San Antonio , he said .
“ We have to release [ white people ] from sins that you did not commit , ” he said .
So after `` releasing white people from sins they did n't commit '' ( huh ? )
, would it be possible to ask black criminals to stop killing and assaulting white people and other black people ?
Because that 's something that 's going on right now .
This is not the first such stunt perpetrated by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the supposedly nonpolitical Lucado broke his don't-intervene-in-politics policy by coming out as an unabashed Trump-basher .
( James Patrick Riley called Lucado out on that one in his column Donald Trump and the Pharisees ) .
And last December , Lucado joined the tired list of those hijacking the celebration of Christmas by relating it to illegal immigration .
Jeff Maples at the Christian website Reformation Charlotte , in an article about the Max Lucado `` apology '' , writes that

Max Lucado has been called "America's Pastor" and "The Best Preacher in America" and has written about 100 books.
Lucado recently engaged in a weird public apology for the racism of past generations of white Americans. Where does the New Testament talk about such a thing?
Oh, but Lucado also confessed his own sin, which was a real doozy .
From the San Antonio Report:
Prominent local pastor and author Max Lucado got down on his knees Sunday [August 9] in San Antonio to beg forgiveness for his and his white ancestors’ acts of racism and inaction. “I am sorry that I have been silent. I am sorry that my head has been buried in the sand,” Lucado said. “My brothers and sisters are hurting and I am sorry. I have made them to feel less than. I did not help. I did not hear. I did not see. I did not understand.” [Pastor Max Lucado asks forgiveness for Christian white supremacy, by Iris Dimmick, San Antonio Report, August 9, 2020]
It was a "park-and-pray" gathering.
Organizers estimated that roughly 3,000 people of all faiths attended the emotional “park-and-pray” event at Freeman Coliseum Sunday evening to follow local faith leaders in prayer to eliminate racism and the coronavirus. At least 23,000 more were watching online.
Praying "to eliminate racism and the coronavirus."
“Our ancestors were wrong. They were wrong. When they bought and sold human beings, that was wrong. When they claimed superiority over slaves, over blacks, that was wrong. When they refused to share water fountains, restaurants, and city buses with your children, your chosen precious children, that was a sin. And we are so very sorry. We are sorry for the pain of that day.”
So is everybody in the world obligated to apologize for the sins of their ancestors, or only white people?
The Oak Hills Church pastor’s prayer comes amid Black Lives Matter protests and calls for racial equity across the nation. Lucado spoke candidly about the “sin” of racism in and outside of the Church.
Lucado shocked the crowd by confessing to his own personal sin in that regard.
“Your church, your pastors, have broken your heart by favoring one skin color over another – oh, Lord God, have mercy on our souls. … How dare we? … How that must nauseate you, O Lord,” he said, adding that those sins extend to brown skin and that he himself has committed them.
Are you ready to hear Max Lucado's shocking confession of sheer, unmitigated wickedness?
“The word ‘wetback’ has found its way on my lips, too,” he said. “For that, I’m so very sorry. Would you please, O Lord, bring a new day.”
See, Max Lucado let the word "wetback" form on his lips. So he's guilty of all this collective sin also.
Car horns blared throughout the parking lot in support of his message. They were parked at least one space apart to ensure social distancing.
You don't want that COVID-19 jumping from one parked car to another.
The PraySA event grew out of conversations between the SA Stronger Together group, ONE-San Antonio, Lucado, Bexar County Commissioner Tommy Calvert (Pct. 4), and many other faith leaders. Stronger Together has been meeting regularly to find ways to bring the community together as the coronavirus pandemic drives people physically apart, said Dorian Williams, an organizer and Black pastor at Texas Christian Fellowship. Williams’ prayer carried a message of forgiveness. “Never in my life have I ever seen a white person say to me … that I’m sorry,” Williams said, pausing to hold back, then release tears. “That I’m sorry for what happened to your people and our ancestors were wrong.” It is a “new day” for San Antonio, he said. “We have to release [white people] from sins that you did not commit,” he said.
So after "releasing white people from sins they didn't commit" (huh?), would it be possible to ask black criminals to stop killing and assaulting white people and other black people? Because that's something that's going on right now.
This is not the first such stunt perpetrated by Max Lucado. During the 2016 campaign, the supposedly nonpolitical Lucado broke his don't-intervene-in-politics policy by coming out as an unabashed Trump-basher. (James Patrick Riley called Lucado out on that one in his column Donald Trump and the Pharisees.)
And last December, Lucado joined the tired list of those hijacking the celebration of Christmas by relating it to illegal immigration.
Jeff Maples at the Christian website Reformation Charlotte, in an article about the Max Lucado "apology," writes that
What the Church needs right now isn’t effeminate men who continue to compromise the gospel by bowing to the cultural demands of social justice and secular ideologies — as most Evangelical leaders have. What we need are men who will oppose this garbage to its face, repudiate it, and point people to the truth of Scripture and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Stop repenting for sins you didn’t commit and stop perpetuating this false narrative that has the Church held captive to vain philosophies [Max Lucado Begs God to Forgive Him For His Ancestors Owning Slaves, Segregation, by Jeff Maples, Reformation Charlotte, August 10, 2020].

The hardest hit ZIP code in the city — 11368 — was the one in [aptly named] Corona, a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood with many construction workers and restaurant employees. Many had to work throughout the pandemic, raising their risk of infection.
About 23 percent of residents in the ZIP code have gotten an antibody test.

A few masked people threw rocks through window panes, and someone tossed a flaming newspaper into the building, according to reports. The fires lit inside the building remained relatively small
Small!
, leaving behind scorched curtains and piles of ash on desks near the shattered windows. The flames did not burn for long, but they grew large enough to set off alarms and trigger the sprinkler system, officials said. Police made two arrests Tuesday: Peter Curtis, 40, on charges of criminal mischief and reckless endangering, and Jesse Hawk, 23, on eight common protest-related charges: riot, interfering with a peace officer, resisting arrest, unlawful use of a weapon, assaulting a public safety officer, harassment, disorderly conduct and attempted escape.
Small charges. Anyway, these sound like boring personalities of no interest to reader:
Peter Wilson Curtis, aka "Tabitha Poppins," the transvestite who goes to #antifa riots almost every day in Portland, was arrested for the 3rd time overnight. Curtis is charged w/reckless endangerment, escape & more. Curtis was quickly bailed out. https://t.co/rRrcXrb38b pic.twitter.com/BQVXmv3d5Y — Andy Ngô 🏳🌈 (@MrAndyNgo) August 19, 2020

Over the last half decade a vast amount of in-depth prestige press coverage has been devoted to the so-called “alt-right” while almost none has been devoted to “Antifa,” despite the latter being vastly larger and more favored by government officials, as we’ve seen this year in unfortunate cities such as Minneapolis, Madison, Seattle, and Portland.
For example, today in the New York Times, we see headlines:
And:
From this NYT Magazine article:
By Leah Sottile Illustrations by Tomer Hanuka August 19, 2020 … Antifa — shorthand for antifascist — can be used to classify anyone who opposes fascism. But there also exist loosely organized antifascist groups that have made their presence known at the street protests of the last few years, especially in the Pacific Northwest. Media exposure has fueled the creation of an absurd caricature on cable news and in the minds of Republican politicians, of a well-funded nationwide organization of combatants. Wolf’s comments that day at the news conference were, perhaps, one point of origin for an Antifa panic that then began rippling out across the country. Soon, rumors were proliferating on social media: Vans filled with destructive antifascists were coming to small-town America, spreading looting and chaos. That evening, President Trump tweeted that he would be classifying Antifa as a terrorist group (something he does not have the authority to do). The next afternoon, Trump spoke at the White House Rose Garden as the sounds of tear gas and flash grenades echoed, scattering peaceful protesters in Lafayette Square. “Our nation has been gripped by professional anarchists, violent mobs, arsonists, looters, criminals, rioters, Antifa and others,” he said. He vowed to send federal troops to “stop the rioting and looting” and “to protect the rights of law-abiding Americans, including your Second Amendment rights.” But numerous reports in the past year asserted that violence from right-wing “homegrown terrorists” was now an equal or greater threat than attacks from foreign jihadist groups. Christopher Wray, director of the F.B.I., told the Senate Judiciary Committee at a hearing on F.B.I. oversight in July 2019 that his agency had recently arrested just as many domestic terrorists as it had foreign terrorists, and that a majority of the domestic terrorists investigated were white supremacists.

In Montana, State Senator Jennifer Fielder took to Facebook on the night of June 1, warning her followers to be on the lookout for Antifa. “There were multiple reports from credible witnesses of five white panel vans filled with people believed to be Antifa,” she wrote. They had been spotted in a grocery-store parking lot in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, she wrote. No one got a photo. Her post went viral.
In reality, Antifa have been rioting for 83 days straight in downtown Portland.
But to the Newspaper of Record that’s not the point, the point is that the Real Menace is people who are worried about Antifa.
Actually, the Antifa phenomenon is pretty interesting. For example, what in the world is the relationship between Antifa and transgenderism? Why are such a large percentage of the rioters — criminals who are so violent that they get arrested even in pro-violence Portland — transgender?
One possibility is that Oregon’s expansive transgender rights policies draw in crazy people from around the country (or world). From Wikipedia’s article “LGBT Rights in Oregon”:
In January 2013, as part of an out-of-court settlement in a discrimination suit with a public employee related to medical insurance coverage of a gender assignment surgical procedure, the state agreed to provide full medical insurance coverage for all such surgeries, drugs, and related treatments for individuals covered on public employee health plans.[19] Since 2014, sex reassignment surgery has not been a requirement to change the gender marker on an Oregon birth certificate. Transgender individuals can apply to change legal gender solely by request.[20] In addition, in August 2014, state officials announced that Oregon Medicaid would shortly begin covering hormone therapy and other treatments related to sex reassignment.[21] On June 10, 2016, an Oregon circuit court ruled that a resident could legally change their gender to non-binary. The Transgender Law Center believed this to be “the first ruling of its kind in the U.S.”[22] Since July 1, 2017, the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles has offered a third choice for gender on licenses and IDs: “X” designating a neutral or non-binary gender identity.[23] The “X” option is also available for birth certificates.[12] In May 2017, a bill passed the Oregon Legislative Assembly to abolish the 1991 requirement for transgender people to publish their names in newspapers before they can undergo a legal change of sex on government documents. This requirement was viewed as a breach of privacy and a safety risk for transgender people.[24] In January 2019, Representative Karin Power introduced a bill to amend a 1951 Oregon mental health law that equated “transvestites” with paedophilia. In April 2019, the bill passed the Legislative Assembly by a vote of 58-2 in the House and 29-0 with 1 excused in the Senate. Governor Kate Brown signed it into law on May 6.[25][26][27]
It would be reassuring to think that there is a fixed number of deranged people in the population and that Oregon has generously offered to take on more than its fair share. And that the men who claim to be women who have thus relocated to Portland are also attracted, due to their general viciousness of character, to Antifa.
But perhaps, more alarmingly, Oregon’s Transgender Privilege policies are creating more violent maniacs?

vdare--2020-08-19--Evgenia Peretz' VANITY FAIR Blood Libel Against Peter Brimelow (And Stephen Miller)

Another flattering report that my 2007 debate at Duke University got Trump immigration consigleire Stephen Miller focused on immigration : I 'm fairly sure that Richard Spencer does n't regard himself as a `` white supremacist '' and I 've repeatedly said I 'm a not a white nationalist but a civic nationalist i.e .
I am looking forward to voting for Michelle Malkin when she runs for president on an immigration moratorium platform .
But these Devil Terms are just standard Main Stream Media lies designed to tighten an increasingly desperate grip on The Narrative .
What 's not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crazy claim that I offered `` texts [ ? ]
and arguments '' about `` the supremacy of the white race . ''
[ Email Peretz ] .
Peretz ' account of this debate is entirely based on the book Hatemonger : Stephen Miller , Donald Trump , and the White Nationalist Agenda by Jean Guerrero , of which her article is a shameless rehash .
But while Guerrero appears densely stupid and dogmatic , even she nowhere suggests that I `` offered '' anything of the sort .
She just says I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the economy '' —liberal artsspeak for `` made boring arguments about economics that I do n't want to think about . ''
If I had said anything about `` the supremacy of the whire race , '' Guerrero would certainly have been on to it , given her frantic determination to smear Miller .
In other words , Evgenia Peretz went to the trouble of inventing her very own Blood Libel here—because , in the current Moral Panic , talking about `` the supremacy of the white race '' means professional death if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ BLM/ Antifa .
Peretz can reasonably described as a Media-American Princess , the daughter of Marty Peretz , the former proprietor of The New Republic and a subject of enduring fascination to Steve Sailer .
She does n't have to bother finding out what Americans outside the elite magic circle think or say , even when it 's actually reported in a book she 's ripping off .
She can just impute it , based on her regal status .
After all , what are the rest of us going to do—vote for @ @ @

Another flattering report that my 2007 debate at Duke University got Trump immigration consigliere Stephen Miller focused on immigration:
In his senior year, he organized an immigration debate with Richard Spencer, a Duke graduate student at the time, who’d go on to found the alt-right movement and become America’s most prominent white supremacist. One of the speakers was white nationalist Peter Brimelow, author of Alien Nation and founder of the website VDare, named after Virginia Dare, the first child born to British settlers. The texts and arguments that Brimelow offered about the supremacy of the white race sharpened Miller’s focus. This, he realized, was his calling.
Keeping Up With The Millers: Stephen Miller And His Wife, Katie, Found Love In A Hateful Place, by Evgenia Peretz, Vanity Fair, August 13, 2020. Emphasis added.
(All this and Ann Coulter too! Do I get a prize?)
I'm fairly sure that Richard Spencer doesn't regard himself as a "white supremacist" and I've repeatedly said I'm a not a white nationalist but a civic nationalist i.e., I am looking forward to voting for Michelle Malkin when she runs for president on an immigration moratorium platform.
But these Devil Terms are just standard Main Stream Media lies designed to tighten an increasingly desperate grip on The Narrative. What's not a standard lie is Evgenia Peretz' crazy claim that I offered "texts [?] and arguments" about "the supremacy of the white race" [Email Peretz].
Peretz' account of this debate is entirely based on the book Hatemonger: Stephen Miller, Donald Trump, and the White Nationalist Agenda, by Jean Guerrero, of which her article is a shameless rehash. But while Guerrero appears densely stupid and dogmatic, even she nowhere suggests that I "offered" anything of the sort. She just says I "made general statements about immigrants hurting the economy"—liberal artsspeak for "made boring arguments about economics that I don't want to think about." If I had said anything about "the supremacy of the white race," Guerrero would certainly have been on to it, given her frantic determination to smear Miller.
In other words, Evgenia Peretz went to the trouble of inventing her very own Blood Libel here—because, in the current Moral Panic, talking about "the supremacy of the white race," means professional death if not actual death at the hands of BLM/Antifa.
