Costner’s ‘The Postman’ Spoof
Back in 1997, Costner played a drifter who posed as a USPS mailman in “The Postman,” which was meant to be set in 2013. In the movie, Costner’s character restores democracy by delivering letters to and from other towns after a totalitarian leader tries to take over one Western town.
While appearing on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” on Tuesday, Costner took part in a spoof trailer of a re-release of “The Postman.”
“In its day, a critical and box office disaster. But today, chillingly accurate,” a narrator could be heard saying in the spoof. “Looks like somebody owes Kevin Costner an apology.”
Costner Attacks Trump
Two days later, Costner gave his reaction to the spoof as well as his thoughts on Trump’s ongoing battle with the USPS.
“Listen, a movie is what it is when it comes out. It has a chance to be revisited, and I was always kind of proud of it,” he told The Daily Beast. “I thought that I had made a mistake not starting out the movie with, ‘Once upon a time…’ because it’s kind of like a fairy tale. ‘Once upon a time, when things got really rotten, the only thing that could stand the test of time was the post office. The only thing people could count on.’ I didn’t say that, and I should have. Because it is like a fairy tale you’d read to your children at night. That’s how I did the movie.”
“History Will Judge You”
“It’s terrible. It’s terrible,” Costner added of Trump’s situation with the postal service. “Nothing is surreal. Everything is highly real, and it’s dangerous. And it’s shameful. History will judge you.”
“What you have to try to lean on is that every four years we get to decide whether we’re going in the right direction or we’re not,” the actor continued. “And we now, because of the way the country is set up—which is beautiful—we have that opportunity. And anyone who would interfere with that process in a deliberate way to have an outcome—that’s criminal. And it spits on 200 years of freedom.”
The former “Dances With Wolves” star concluded by saying that people should vote in person if they are able to.
“So this is what you do: you wear your mask and you go vote,” he said.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-24--University Demands Students ‘Pledge To Practice Antiracist Behaviors’ In Disturbing BLM Endorsement

The President ’ s Cabinet of the University of Southern Maine just sent a message to students that swore allegiance to the Black Lives Matter movement , and they called on them to do the same .
The Cabinet , which includes President Glenn Cummings as well as other school officials , brought up late Georgia congressman and civil rights icon John Lewis ’ support of the movement and proclaimed that “ we must add our voices to the Black Lives Matter Movement.
” The message then slammed the phrase “ all lives matter ” as “ hurtful ” and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” “ We agree .
And in support of Lewis ’ declaration , the Movement itself , and Black , Indigenous and People of Color everywhere , we say Black Lives Matter .
Period , ” the message continued , adding that “ the inconvenient truth is that history provides plenty of evidence that the lives of Black , Indigenous and People of Color haven ’ t mattered as much as white lives.
” The message defended this claim by ordering students to “ please consider ” a list of “ realities.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that “ Intentionally constructed and deeply ingrained racist policies continue to deny Black , Indigenous and People of Color access to education , employment , housing , healthcare , justice and voting — and increase their chances of incarceration ” as well as “ Too many syllabi feature perspectives that reflect and reinforce white privilege.
” It should be noted that none of these “ realities ” were presented alongside specific examples , and no specific institutions were listed as being responsible for racism .
“ For all of these reasons — and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that harm Black , Indigenous and People of Color daily — we must never tire of declaring that Black Lives Matter , ” the message stated .
The fact that “ Black Lives Matter ” is capitalized implies that the school is supporting the official Black Lives Matter organization , which has shown itself repeatedly to be a political organization .
Even one of the co-founders of the organization described herself and other members of the group as “ trained Marxists , ” a claim that is also made on the organization ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Black Lives Matter aims to “ disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure ” and free individuals from “ the tight grip of heteronormative thinking.
” No school should be endorsing Black Lives Matter , and no institution should be urging young people to do so as well .
This just goes to show how dangerously radically leftwing American liberal arts schools have become .

One of the Bolshie malcontents was Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez .
What a surprise , given she got all of 60 seconds to hardly bark out her usual lunacy .
“ Would I have done things differently ?
Of course .
But as a young progressive Latina I know I was not the target audience for this convention .
The target audience for this convention was white moderates who aren ’ t sure who they ’ re voting for in November , ” she wrote on Instagram @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pretty confused by Billy Porter ’ s inane dance at the end of the first night .
Having the whole thing emceed by the likes of Julia Louis-Dreyfus , Kerry Washington , Tracee Ellis Ross , and Eva Longoria didn ’ t likely do them any favors in Scranton as well .

More genius from the Bronx bartender , “ Do I agree with centering the programming on that audience ?
Not necessarily .

Now, yet another “Karen” video is making the rounds online, and this one shows a woman being physically dragged out of a grocery store in Long Beach, California…simply because she refused to wear a mask.
“Karen” Dragged Out Of Store For Not Wearing Mask
When the video opens, the fight between “Karen” and her fellow customers is already in full swing. A taller woman can be seen trying to grab onto “Karen,” who appears to be trying to get her bag back from another male customer. As “Karen” asks the man to give her back her keys, the other woman manages to get hold of her arm and immediately starts trying to drag her out of the store.
“Karen” tries to resist being thrown out of the store, but since the other woman is bigger and stronger than, she never really had a chance. Within seconds, the taller woman has “Karen” out of the store, telling her to “stay out!”
Mask Debate Rages On
This comes as the debate over masks continues to rage all over the United States, with it becoming an increasingly political conversation. Southern California is known for being particularly liberal, so it comes as no surprise that the situation there has escalated to the point where people are being assaulted for not wearing masks.
The issue with “Karen” videos like this one is that we have no idea what this woman’s situation really is. Perhaps she has an underlying medical condition that makes it impossible for her to wear a mask, or maybe she just doesn’t think she should be forced to wear a mask just because the government tells her to.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-24--Rapper Ice Cube Turns On Democrats – Tells Blacks To ‘Make Them Earn That Vote’

The rapper Ice Cube appeared to partly turn on the Democratic Party over the weekend when he made a video called “ What ’ s in it for the Black community ?
” In the video , he urged black Americans to make both Democrats and Republicans earn their vote in the 2020 election .
The rapper was inspired to make this video after he became skeptical of the messaging at last week ’ s Democratic National Convention , which included speeches by Joe Biden , Barack Obama , Kamala Harris , and Hillary Clinton .
“ A lot of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ DNC ] talking and everybody really eating it up , throwing their hands in the air like they just don ’ t care — but what I didn ’ t hear was : what ’ s in it for us ?
What ’ s in it for the Black community ?
Besides the same old thing we ’ ve been getting from these parties , ” Ice Cube said in the video , which he posted on Saturday .
“ What ’ s in it for us , for real ?
” “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Contract with Black America , and I don ’ t know why because its one of the most comprehensive reform documents that have come around in a long time that could really address the problem , ” the rapper added .
“ The way it looks , they don ’ t really have a problem .
Everybody talkin ’ about , ‘ Get Trump out , get Trump out , get Trump out.
’ If you vote , that ’ s gon ’ happen on the first day , ” Ice Cube @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
Trump out , now what ?
What do we get in the first 100 days ?
That ’ s what we ’ re trying to figure out .
What do we actually get that they could give us overnight like that ?
” Ice Cube created Contract with Black America , a document that calls for a “ more perfect union ” and a “ complete paradigm shift in how we run our institutions and operate our country.
” “ Instead of looking for incremental reform , the Contract with Black America @ @ @ @ @ @ @ racism in our society and develop a roadmap for a comprehensive solution , ” the document stated .
“ Beyond the obvious , we need to focus on the areas of banking and finance , justice , policing , education , Hollywood depictions , as well as a system of reparations , ” it added .
“ None of these work in isolation , this plan looks at the systemic core of racism as a whole , and only in that way can a true solution be born.
” “ What Do We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ video , Ice Cube questioned “ What do we actually get ?
” “ They just pulled $ 3 trillion out their a** and gave it to their friends , ” he said of the money allocated in the Coronavirus Aid , Relief , and Economic Security Act , also known as the CARES Act .
“ That ’ s American taxpayer money .
That ’ s your money that they just gave away.
” “ Where ’ s our f***ing bailout ?
Where ’ s the bailout ?
Not the PPP loan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , where ’ s the bailout ?
I don ’ t want to hear about deficit , I don ’ t want to hear about what our generations going to have to pay , ” Ice Cube said .
“ If we don ’ t have s**t , they ain ’ t going to have anything to pay nothing.
” “ So we got ta start something right now , ” the rapper declared .
“ Democrats don ’ t seem like they got a plan , Republicans don ’ t seem like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ So how the hell you gon ’ vote for them ?
Make ’ em earn that vote .
They can start today , ” Ice Cube concluded .
“ Make they a** earn that vote .
Stop playing with these people and maybe they ’ ll stop playing with you.
” The Democratic Party has long taken minorities for granted , especially the black community .
With an increasing number of black Americans seeing the light , leftists should not be surprised if they lose this vote at some point in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by PopZette Staff on August 24 , 2020 .

Ice Cube Turns On Democrats
“A lot of people getting up [at the 2020 DNC] talking and everybody really eating it up, throwing their hands in the air like they just don’t care — but what I didn’t hear was: what’s in it for us? What’s in it for the Black community? Besides the same old thing we’ve been getting from these parties,” Ice Cube said in the video, which he posted on Saturday. “What’s in it for us, for real?”

“The way it looks, they don’t really have a problem. Everybody talkin’ about, ‘Get Trump out, get Trump out, get Trump out.’ If you vote, that’s gon’ happen on the first day,” Ice Cube continued. “So, now what? Trump out, now what? What do we get in the first 100 days? That’s what we’re trying to figure out. What do we actually get that they could give us overnight like that?”
Ice Cube created Contract with Black America, a document that calls for a “more perfect union” and a “complete paradigm shift in how we run our institutions and operate our country.”
“Instead of looking for incremental reform, the Contract with Black America tries to address the root causes of racism in our society and develop a roadmap for a comprehensive solution,” the document stated.
“Beyond the obvious, we need to focus on the areas of banking and finance, justice, policing, education, Hollywood depictions, as well as a system of reparations,” it added. “None of these work in isolation, this plan looks at the systemic core of racism as a whole, and only in that way can a true solution be born.”
“What Do We Actually Get?”
In his three-minute video, Ice Cube questioned “What do we actually get?”
“They just pulled $3 trillion out their a** and gave it to their friends,” he said of the money allocated in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, also known as the CARES Act. “That’s American taxpayer money. That’s your money that they just gave away.”
“Where’s our f***ing bailout? Where’s the bailout? Not the PPP loan that they didn’t give us, where’s the bailout? I don’t want to hear about deficit, I don’t want to hear about what our generations going to have to pay,” Ice Cube said. “If we don’t have s**t, they ain’t going to have anything to pay nothing.”
“So we gotta start something right now,” the rapper declared. “Democrats don’t seem like they got a plan, Republicans don’t seem like they got a plan for us.”
“So how the hell you gon’ vote for them? Make ’em earn that vote. They can start today,” Ice Cube concluded. “Make they a** earn that vote. Stop playing with these people and maybe they’ll stop playing with you.”
Democrats Take Minorities For Granted
The Democratic Party has long taken minorities for granted, especially the black community. With an increasing number of black Americans seeing the light, leftists should not be surprised if they lose this vote at some point in the not-so-distant future.

Dems Pass Bill By 21-15
Virginia Senate Bill 5032 was passed by 21 votes to 15, and eliminates the current felony requirement for anyone who assaults a police officer. According to the summary it eliminates:
The mandatory minimum term of confinement for an assault and battery committed against a judge; magistrate; law-enforcement officer; correctional officer; person directly involved in the care, treatment, or supervision of inmates; firefighter; or volunteer firefighter or any emergency medical services personnel and provides that such crime can no longer be committed as a simple assault and must result in a bodily injury.
The bill was first drafted at the start of July, and was clearly a priority for Governor Northam and the other Virginia Democrats.

President Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr, slammed the legislation on Twitter.
“This is what happens when Democrats take control of a state, so just imagine the type of anti-police/pro-criminal policies they’ll be enacting nationally if they ever win back the White House,” he wrote.

Virginia To Defund The Police?
However, it is not the only attack on law enforcement and police that the Democrats have on their cards in Virginia. House Speaker Eileen Filler-Corn said early June that their plan also included cutting funding for police departments.
“We must reimagine the role of policing in our commonwealth and recommend changes in the budget that divest resources from policing and reinvest those resources in public education, health, crisis intervention, and other services that are preventative rather than punitive in nature,” Filler-Corn told reporters.
