You Can Stop Your Moral Smugness Now

I am in the Associated Press this week calling out the grift on the right. I strongly believe Turning Point USA is a grift operation that is swindling older Americans out of money. Those older Americans see young people getting hammered at fancy conventions and think they are getting their money’s worth. All they are doing is funding Charlie Kirk’s lifestyle. As a guy in radio, and as someone aware of his radio company’s finances, I assure you it is highly improbable he’s living off his radio money to afford his West Coast mansion and Gulf Coast condo.

By the way, a TPUSA employee is on social media questioning Israel and equating Zionism with Communism. She’s also attacking conservatives for defending Israel. Turning Point donors, are you okay with that?

Yesterday, I criticized those who have platformed Andrew Tate and Nick Fuentes while calling out Candice Owens, who, whenever the subject of Israel comes up, seems always to need to do “research,” so please get back to her later on her opinion.

I’ve called out election deniers, including the former President, for their bullsh*t excuse-making over 2020 and earned a generous portion of hate for doing so from the right. I’ve lost subscribers here for doing so and lost radio stations, too — which amounts to a loss of revenue for my business. But I’ll gladly sacrifice the revenue for the truth.

So you’ll excuse me, here and now, as I note the President of the United States can offer real and bold moral clarity about what is happening in Israel, but he cannot say one damn word about Rashida Talib, Ilhan Omar, Alexandra Occasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders, Ed Markey, or a hell of a lot of other Democrats promoting Hamas, morally equating Israel to Hamas killing Holocaust survivors, etc.

Oh, here is Rashida Talib saying he Holocaust gave her “a calming feeling.” Like AOC, it took her four days to say anything about the present situation and tried to “both sides” it.

Here’s a Democrat state representative from Joe Biden’s home state of Delaware also denying Hamas actually decapitated babies, even after Biden, again, confirmed it happened.

Here’s a Democrat state representative from Colorado who refused to condemn Hamas.

Every damn time you people in the press on TV have on Republicans, remember how many Democrats and other TV personalities expect you to demand a condemnation of election deniers. Some of you attacked Kristen Welker on NBC’s Meet the Press for not aggressively pushing back on Donald Trump in an interview, but sure are silent about pushing back on Democrats morally equating Hamas and Israel.

You can shut the hell up now, Los Angeles Times, lecturing us on election deniers when your own investigative reporter still, even after the President of the United States confirmed the decapitated babies are real, refuses to believe it.¹

The New York Times couldn’t bring themselves to label Hamas terrorists as “terrorists.” They went with “gunmen” until people raised holy hell about it.

The Editor-in-Chief of Harper’s Bazaar, Samira Nasr, is on record now saying Israel’s response to what Hamas did is the “most inhuman thing [she] has seen in [her] life.” Did she not see all the dead bodies? Did she not see Hamas use a grandmother’s Facebook account to livestream her execution? Did she not see the crib full of blood splatter from the baby that was executed? Did she not see what has happened?

MSNBC, outside of Morning Joe, is filled with anti-Semites and moral equivocators — so much so that the President of the Anti-Defamation League went off on your network’s cover live on air. Spare me Mehdi Hasan’s lectures on Republicans when he’s out morally equivocating now.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has been silent about the leftwing student groups in the United States that are marching in support of Hamas.

Credit to Congressman Shri Thanedar for renouncing his membership in the Democratic Socialists of America. BUT HE IS THE ONLY ONE SO FAR. And thank you Charlie Sykes for this at the Bulwark.

As an aside, for the sake of argument, is it okay if the babies are dead but have their heads still? Is it the disbelief of decapitation that is causing the pushback? Are these people cool with Hamas killing the babies otherwise? I’m genuinely curious.

You want to lecture me about supposed threats to democracy and election deniers? Let me suggest to you that dead and decapitated babies, murdered Holocaust victims, and terrorists trying to destroy a nation with violence are, just perhaps, a bit worse.

And you cannot do anything other than “whatabout.” You Democrats literally had a portion of your team stay silent for days until they could say Israel was behaving badly in its response to a brutal surprise attack. By the way, Hamas literally put its headquarters inside a hospital. And you people are mad at Israel for destroying the headquarters, not Hamas for putting it in a hospital.

Progressives who march in the street for election integrity and corporations who funded Black Lives Matter can spare me their lectures on tolerance, diversity, and trans rights when they have propped up an organization cheering the murderers of children, grandmothers, Holocaust survivors, and more.

Universities that won’t tolerate conservatives can spare me their outrage over conservatives when their students raise swastikas in the streets to champion Palestinian causes. Yes, that actually happened.

You people have loved to smugly preen morally on television about lies, misinformation, and anti-democratic Republicans, and you have surrounded yourselves with Holocaust deniers, murderers, and their cheerleaders.

You people on the left can shut up now, or you can trot your President of the United States out on stage, shove your hand up his rectum to move his lips per usual, and say, “Democrats, there is no moral equivocation to killing Holocaust survivors, and if you are for Hamas, you are against all the values of our party.”

Except this President and his party actually support decapitating dead babies so long as they are still sufficiently up the birth canal.

Speaking of Biden, he expects Americans to pay the government to be evacuated from Israel. He needs their money to pay off the student loans of the Hamas-supporting American college kids.

1. The White House now says the President made up that he had seen the pictures himself, but confirms Israel says it actually happened.
