Democrat Rep Denies Black People Have God-Given Rights. Then Steps on Rake for Good Measure

Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Lunatic - Tenn.) 

I'm sorry, you'll have to forgive me, or praise me (your choice) but I just cannot look at Congressman Steve Cohen and not see Lon Chaney's 1925 Phantom of the Opera with glasses on.  Sometimes I can't keep from bursting out laughing.......

RS- Truly, we are governed by the dumbest people, and I don’t mean that as a generic insult. I mean that in the most technical way possible. The United States government is populated and run by some of the least knowledgeable mediocrities on earth.

To provide evidence of that, I bring you Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN), a man that’s no stranger to beclowning himself for the cameras. After all, this is the same guy who once brought a bucket of KFC to a hearing because then-AG Bill Barr rescheduled.

On Tuesday, Cohen decided to go on a rant denouncing the “right-wing” Supreme Court for doing things like upholding the constitution and forcing the Biden administration to follow the law. In the midst of that, the congressman proclaimed that women and black people don’t have God-given rights.
I’m sure that sounded a lot more smarter in his head.

God is not the US government. God-given rights (natural rights) are not bestowed by pieces of paper written by men. That conflation not only makes no sense, but it is the exact opposite of what the phrase God-given rights means in any historical context. Inalienable rights exist outside and in isolation of any government dictate. If rights come from politicians, then they aren’t rights. They are simply allowances by overlords.

Cohen apparently doesn’t grasp that and instead believes that a right doesn’t exist until the US government bestows it upon someone. Such a viewpoint is not only constitutionally illiterate, but it’s also dangerous in that it assumes unlimited power exists in the hands of an overarching, malleable human authority.

But if Cohen’s stream of consciousness wasn’t funny enough, things got hilarious when he took to Twitter and stomped on a rake by endorsed this post that was calling him a racist.
The mocking was relentless until Cohen began blocking tweeters

Unfortunately, Cohen’s view, dumb as it may be, is popular on the left. They have turned the US government into a god to be worshiped. No one has the right to do anything unless the overpaid elites in Washington give their stamp of approval. Thankfully, at least for now, the United States has a Supreme Court that is willing to check the Democratic Party’s most authoritarian instincts. At least for now.

Marianne Sparkleshine Stardust Williamson is the First to Step Up to the Plate to Challenge Brandon.

Tomorrow For A Better Tomorrow...or Something.

Marianne Williamson was by far the most entertaining candidate in the Democrat's 2020 debate lineup. She was spitting fire at DJT while spraying toxic unicorn farts on at all her competitors from her debate podium.  At one point in the race she was polling ahead of Spartacus Booker & Krissy Gillibrand, and even one percent Kamala Harris had to drop out the race before Williamson.

Sparkleshine Stardust formally kicked off her 2024 campaign with an event in Washington DC, on Saturday.
“I’m running for president to help bring an aberrational chapter of our history to a close, and to help bring forth a new beginning. I feel my 40 years being up close and personal with the trauma of so many thousands of individuals gives me a unique perspective on what is needed to help repair America."
Her 2020 campaign signature proposals was a plan to create a US Department of Peace. She also advocated that the federal government pay massive financial reparations to Black Americans as atonement for centuries of slavery and discrimination. You can probably expect much more lunacy along these lines again for 2024 since the democrats have gone full progtard. 

Sure, a lot of the other democrats who talk crazy too, but none of them come close to this level of hilarious insanity.


Stay tune kids, the run up to 2024 is going to be an absoulte shitshow from both side. Let's just pray we all survive it.

Historian says 46 Will Go Down as Worst in History


Presidential historian and New York Times best-selling author Craig Shirley says Joe Biden is on track to become the nation's worst president in history.
"I ranked him among our five worst presidents in American history. He's actually going to become the worst president in American history. 
Everything he does seems to be about destroying American exceptionalism, the American experiment and the American creed. 
I've come to the conclusion he's doing it on purpose."
The ranking is based off of a piece that Shirley wrote one year into Joe Biden's presidency. Shirley said that now that it's been two years since the president took office. 46 has been getting a lot of backlash lately for inflation, the economy and unpopular foreign policy decisions and now for choosing to go to Ukraine for a photo op and film footage for another election campaign on your money instead of going to Ohio where people are dealing with the aftermath of the train derailment and toxic chemicals affecting the community. 

Jimmy Carter should go to his reward confident he will no longer be considered the worst.

ChatGPT Is a Bullshit Generator


Been reading some of the interesting articles and comments about AI lately. And people seem to have been having fun with ChatGPT, testing out question and commands. Some have even tried to trick it into saying the forbidden "N" word with the help of a doomsday scenario.  

ChatGPT is, in technical terms, a 'bullshit generator'. If a generated sentence makes sense to you, the reader, it means the mathematical model has made sufficiently good guess to pass your sense-making filter. The language model has no idea what it's talking about because it has no idea about anything at all. It's more of a bullshitter than the most egregious egoist you'll ever meet, producing baseless assertions with unfailing confidence because that's what it's designed to do.

Unsuspecting users who've been conditioned on Siri and Alexa assume that the smooth talking ChatGPT is somehow tapping into reliable sources of knowledge, but it can only draw on the (admittedly vast) proportion of the interwebs it ingested at training time, with even a bit of TDS for good measure.

It's a bonus for the parent corporation when journalists and academics respond by generating acres of breathless coverage, which works as PR even when expressing concerns about the end of human creativity.

Large language models (LLMs) like the GPT family learn the statistical structure of language by optimising their ability to predict missing words in sentences. Of course, the makers of GPT learned by experience that an untended LLM will tend to spew islamophobia in addition to talking nonsense.

OpenAI is acquiring billions of dollars of investment on the back of the ChatGPT hype.  The point here is not only the pocketing of a pyramid-scale payoff but the reasons why institutions and governments are prepared to invest so much in these technologies. For these players, the seductive vision isn't real AI (whatever that is) but technologies that are good enough to replace human workers.

Crazy Is Fun....... For a While.

“No society can entirely do without intelligentsia, but they’re like gut bacteria – valuable, but they have to be constrained in number and kept in their place or disaster ensues.” – Glenn Reynolds
In many ways, this is the most brilliant analogy I can think of to describe the problem of modern Western Culture. Gut bacteria is critical for human survival. It allows us to digest nutrients that keep us healthy. Likewise, intelligentsia help digest fresh intellectual concepts that keep a culture growing and dynamic.

But if gut bacteria escapes the digestive system and is introduced into the body, peritonitis results. It grows wildly out of control, inflaming the body’s tissues, creating abdominal pain, digestive upset, and eventually confusion and fatigue. Left unchecked death results.

Since World War II, in large part due to appreciation of how technology helped the Allies win the war, America created a meritocracy based on intellectual achievement. No longer was admired the fastest runner, the champion marble shooter, or the strongest boxer. The work of the artisan, whether the mechanic, the cabinetmaker, or the baker, was looked down upon.

Instead, the best and brightest were held up as exemplars. The intelligentsia exploded in numbers and escaped their natural environment of academia to populate — and run — all of society.  It took a while, but societal peritonitis has resulted, expressed as Woke culture, transgenderism, and Scientism as a form of worship. It will eventually reduce us to a regressive, feudalist society.

In Churchill’s words, “a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science.”

I don't know what the ultimate solution is or how we are to achieve it. We must find some way to return and confine the intelligentsia to their proper place without destroying them. They are necessary, but – as the last 20 years or so have demonstrated — we cannot allow them to run unchecked or to rule us. Crazy is fun for a while, like during your college years. It is too unstable to tolerate very long.

A Good Monday Morning

What Better Way To Kick Off Super Bowl Sunday Than With Film of Joe Biden Scoring Touchdowns.

Believe it or not, Joe Biden was a star hero footballer in high school, and what better way is there to celebrate Super Bowl Sunday than watching game film of the then-future POTUS doing a Justin Jefferson all over the his opponents scoring touchdown after touchdown?

In fact, there’s a collection of Archmere Academy game films — narrated by then-quarterback Bill Peterman and chock full of charmingly low-tech production, really loud unlicensed music, and some fancy dance moves by Peterman at the end — that has been sitting on YouTube since 2010, the year that Peterman and his former teammates met to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their undefeated season. But the clip has gone largely unnoticed, and as of writing this, has been viewed by just over 8 thousand people.

Senator Shotgun Fetterman Rushed to DC Hospital

Democrat Senator John "Shotgun" Fetterman was hospitalized last night at George Washington hospital after feeling light-headed while attending a Democratic retreat. Doctors believe there was no evidence of a new stroke. More tests are being run and the senator says he is in "good spirits".

DMF resident Medical Expert, Dr. Z. Cockburn Savage III, believes Fetterman's latest health issue could very well be one of the many known side effects of listening to Joe Biden speak for prolonged periods of time. Doctor Savage also postulated the Senator could have been traumatized from wearing a suit for an extended period.

We are all praying for a speedy recovery John.

Get Out And Go Buy An Envelope.

So, I ran across this fascinating little post about an interviewer asking Kurt Vonnegut about a passage in his then newly published book, Man Without A Country, struck a chord with me. 

I lost my OPS Manager to Covid early last year, so I took on some of her duties. That made a lot of people happy; it got me out of the building and the engineer's hair when it wasn't necessary for me to be involved. Computers and technology are wonderful, and they make us better at what we do. But, we must never forget, as Vonnegut reminds us, that we are dancing creatures.

I have come to know exactly where Vonnegut was coming from.....

 DAVID BRANCACCIO: There's a little sweet moment, I've got to say, in a very intense book-- your latest-- in which you're heading out the door and your wife says what are you doing? I think you say-- I'm getting-- I'm going to buy an envelope.

KURT VONNEGUT: Yeah.

DAVID BRANCACCIO: What happens then?

KURT VONNEGUT: Oh, she says well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope. I meet a lot of people. And, see some great looking babes. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And, and ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is, is we're here on Earth to fart around.

And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And, what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And, we're not supposed to dance at all anymore.

Cliff Notes To SOTU. I Watched So You Didn't Have To.

7:55 PM: Eerily strange looking people wondering around aimlessly are talking to themselves and each other. Fetterman's pointed head visible above the crowd. Kyrsten Sinema enters chamber looking like she's is wearing the kitchen curtains from Pee Wee's Playhouse. Speaker Kevin is looking up & down at Kamala like she smells of a reanimated corpse. That means we're starting soon kids!

There's a guy in a white lab coat just to the left of the dais -- I imagine that's a doctor in case Greazy Joe's mouth outruns it's supply line and he goes into vapor lock, or the Turd Fairy shows up unexpectedly. 

And look there 'it's the Supreme Court guys. Love them a lot. Apparently Alito, Gorsuch, and Thomas have chosen to make themselves scarce. Probably out guarding the big fence around the capital in case the Vikings show up. And there's Dr. Jill, lookin' like she raided Princes' closet, wearing a Hot Fluorescent Purple dress and 1970s' flowing locks. 

Greasy Joe finally makes it to dais looking wide eyed like he's charged up with a full load of adderall and ready to kick it!

Starts with kind words to Speaker Kevin and the 'ol gasbag Pelosi. Oh Shit. Joe just called Chuck Schumer Minority Leader. What a kick in the nads for Chucks ego!

Joe is now doing his patented "we're all America, look how we work together" bullshit. 

Kamala looks like she's holding in a massive fart.

Oh Joe starts lyn' -  12 billion new manufacturing jobs and "lowest unemployment since 1969" - FACT CHECK PLEASE!

Joe is explaining cars needs chips and salsa.

Ooooh Joes MAD, Joe's SHAKING a FINGER. HOW VERY DARE YOU for being 13th in infrastructure. LOOK AT THIS FUCKIN IRONWORKER. We need more Ironworkers (to extort money from to give to Democrats.) Joe's just listing shit now, but EXCITED. IRON! LUMBER! FIBER OPTIC CABLE! CHAMOMILE TEA!

Joe promises we don't have to worry about Big Pharma, he promises they will be fine, even though he murdered them with cheap insulin. - FACT CHECK PLEASE!

Kamala really needs to do something about that turkey neck she's growing. Damn Girl!!

Joe mentions that the winger extremouses wanna repeal the Inflation Reduction Act, and they all applaud, and he just laughs in their faces. Then drools' a little.

Got back from getting a small sip of Four Roses Small Batch and Joe's shouting! Repub are shouting! Joe's shouting. Like Prime Minister's Fisticuffs And Gentlemen's Crumpets and Swaggerbobbing! I don't know what's going on! It's so much fun! 

Joe says we'll need oil for at least another decade and there's a hearty roar of laughter in his face, and now he is being roundly booed for noting that Trump can suck a big old deficit. Another big round of boos for Joe when notes tha Repubs want deep six Social Security. - FACT CHECK PLEASE.

Joe says some cool shit he did, like not letting Jimmy John's kidnap Subway employees or something and some other cool shit too, I forget. I went to get another small sip of Four Roses Small Batch.

So now Joe's got a bit of a laundry list going here of shit Biden wants done: ABORTION FOR EVERYONE! Tiny American flags for others! Ukraine, Putin, queer folks, a path to citizenship.

Joe slimed right over his offenses, rampant crime, invasion of our borders and poison drugs that kill everyday. 

Joe spending little time on the China balloon, which Old Joe murdered with his bare space lasers. People are shouting USA,USA which is visabley annoying the dems. Suspect AOC started crying, can't say for sure. 

Joe is against cancer. Joe is against hitting Paul Pelosi in the head with a hammer. DON'T BE ANTI-DEMOCRATIC SHITHEADS! says Joe. NO HITTING DEMOCRATS IN THE HEAD WITH A HAMMER.

Lots more blah blah blah......

9:20 PM: And Joe is DONE HERE.

He loves you baby. He wants you to be happy, and good, and not a dick like Speaker Kevin who was nice enough to invite him over to our house.

*****

I know you've probably already seen it, but Governor Sarah's rebuttal was a two to the chest and one to the head of Biden and his far left toads. And she left no doubt we'd better stand up for what we believe and give a big 'ol middle finger to the woketards.

Kevin Invites Greasy Joe to Drop By for the Annual Ritual Spreading of Manure

Kevin McCarthy, newly elected herder of cats, and vanquisher of screaming banshees and lying treasonist democrats, officially invited the pretend President to come by the people's House Chamber Tuesday evening to show off his vast orator skills and attempt publicly to do his constitutional duty to report to congress 'The State of the Union'.  Or as better known to long time DMFers as the 'Ritual Spreading of Manure', a tiresome exercise in political exhibitionism, the most execrable ceremony in the nation’s civic liturgy, regardless of which party’s leader is abusing it.

EARL Done This Arts

On the high side, the Republican response to Greasy Joe will be given by the newly elected Governor of the Great State of Arkansas, The Honorable Sarah Huckabee Sanders. We all remember her don't we.  And we know the democrats surely do! ðŸ¤£ðŸ¤£

Daddy, Daddy. Save Me From the Mean People!


Hunter Biden's legal team called on the DOJ Wednesday to investigate numerous parties for possibly breaking federal and Delaware laws by "accessing, copying, manipulating, and/or disseminating" Hunter's "personal computer data."

You know, the one all the experts said was Russian disinformation. 

"He's basically asking his dad to use the U.S. government to attack the people who have been critical of him," said Tom Jones, director of the American Accountability Foundation, a conservative group.
   
Hunter's investigative requests were detailed in letters that his legal team sent Wednesday to Delaware Attorney General Kathy Jennings and U.S. Assistant Attorney General for National Security Matthew G. Olsen, who Joe Biden nominated in May 2021 for his role. The legal team also wrote to the Internal Revenue Service and lawyers for Fox News and Tucker Carlson. 

This demands could pose a clear conflict of interest, given it was issued to Joe Biden's administration, watchdogs told the Washington Examiner.- READ MORE

A Random Act of Journalism

Chief January 6th Investigator Makes Shocking Admissions,
and Committee Members Covered Them Up

NBC News, accidentally I'm sure, committed a random act of journalism on Tuesday, interviewing the Chief January 6th Investigator for the January 6th committee, Tim Heaphy.  What Heaphy revealed to Lester Holt may be the most significant admission regarding January 6th since the event took place.

Previously, surveillance videos had shone how complicated and confusing the situation was. But according to Heaphy, the attack was preventable before the first person stepped foot on the Capitol grounds.

Heaphy reveals that the intelligence prior to January 6th "was direct and not ambiguous". The FBI knew that people were going to attempt to get inside the Capitol Building.  Instead of trying to prevent the attack, recent revelations showed that the FBI played along, having informants within the Proud Boys organization.

According to Holt, committee members like Liz Cheney and Adam Schiff purposely suppressed that damning information in the final report in order to keep the focus solely on Donald Trump.

In other words, the committee covered the corrupt FBI's ass, put politics above exposing the intentional failures of federal law enforcement who could have prevented the whole thing.  

The Jan 6 Final Report is a sham.

Committee members actively covered up the information in order to continue their partisan pursuit of Trump. - READ MORE
