If you haven’t noticed, it’s still “Pride Month.” Sorry for reminding you. 
You know who will never forget about “Pride Month”? The Left, and the Democratic Party, which for some reason, <a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/06/13/nx-s1-5415878/democrats-young-men-trump">still believes</a> that it can reach American men while pushing the most ridiculous LGBT talking points out there. 
While many Americans have made their frustrations with wokeness heard loud and clear, the Left continues to push “Pride,” even in what should be the unifying pastime of baseball. Earlier this week, the New York Mets bizarrely showed the “Pride” flag on the Citi Field jumbotron while the “Star-Spangled Banner” was being sung, because nothing shows the beauty and power of America like the rainbow flag apparently.

Later in the game, the Mets <a href="https://x.com/ThePatriotOasis/status/1934227418429923769">showed</a> two dudes smooching it up while holding a “Pride” flag. Would it surprise you that for the month of June, the Mets changed their logo on social media to “Pride” colors? Hey, at least for Mets fans, their team is still sitting at the top of the league in the <a href="https://www.espn.com/mlb/standings/_/group/overall">standings</a>. But there are few things that men hate more than their beloved sports being injected with leftist politics. 
The wokeness of the Left is a losing message with men, especially young men, who are turning to the Republican side at incredible rates. In 2024, men between the ages of 18 and 29 <a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/06/13/nx-s1-5415878/democrats-young-men-trump">shifted</a> to the Right by 12 points. The problem has become so big for Democrats that they <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/03/democrats-young-men-study-00384370">set out</a> to “study young men and how Democrats can reach them.” Maybe just be normal?
Cygnal pollster Brent Buchanan told “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG6zVr4v-4U">Morning Wire</a>” this week that cultural issues are the main driver behind young men abandoning the Democratic Party. 
“Those cultural issues are essentially proxies for radicalism, and if you don’t see yourself as radical on those issues, then you don’t see yourself as a Democrat right now,” Buchanan said. 
The 2024 election showed us that millions of young men don’t want to sign onto the Left’s radical platform, and they’re tired of the culture constantly shoving crazy ideologies.
Men want a return to normalcy. They want politicians who don’t scream about radical ideas, they want sports that aren’t steeped in wokeness, and they want companies that don’t push “Pride Month.”

The Left’s successful rebranding of masculinity as “toxic” didn’t just rewrite a dictionary entry — it rewired the cultural DNA that once produced great men.
In 2018, the American Psychological Association updated its Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Boys and Men, effectively declaring stoicism, risk-taking, and competitiveness — the building blocks of masculine virtue — “<a href="https://www.apa.org/about/policy/boys-men-practice-guidelines.pdf">psychologically harmful</a>.”  
Within months, Gillette aired its infamous &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYaY2Kb_PKI">We Believe</a>&#8220; commercial, scolding ordinary dads at backyard barbecues while implying every son harbored a bully within. Seemingly overnight, &#8220;toxic&#8221; became the default adjective attached to manhood.
But this cultural ambush was decades in the making. It has its roots in second-wave feminism, which in the 1960s began reframing male strength as patriarchal oppression. By the ’80s and ’90s, freshly-minted gender studies departments were churning out theses that branded healthy male assertiveness “hegemonic.”
On television, the upstanding patriarch of “Father Knows Best” gave way to the beer-bellied, weak-willed Al Bundy. When clickbait culture arrived in the 2000s, every societal ill — from climate change to mass shootings — found a convenient culprit in “<a href="https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/01/17/gun-violence-masculinity-216321/">traditional masculinity</a>.”
C.S. Lewis foresaw the danger. “We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise,” he warned in The Abolition of Man — adding the <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/113211-we-make-men-without-chests-and-expect-from-them-virtue?utm_source=chatgpt.com">punchline</a> our era can’t escape: “We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst.”
The cultural costs are no laughing matter. Today, 17.6 million American children — nearly one in four — <a href="https://www.fatherhood.org/father-absence-statistic">grow up without a father in the home</a>. Their odds of suffering are grim: Barack Obama, citing Census data in 2008, <a href="https://www.politico.com/story/2008/06/text-of-obamas-fatherhood-speech-011094?">noted</a> that such children are “five times more likely to live in poverty… nine times more likely to drop out of school, and 20 times more likely to end up in prison.”
If only he did something about it. 
Almost 60 years earlier, Daniel Patrick Moynihan <a href="https://web.stanford.edu/~mrosenfe/Moynihan%27s%20The%20Negro%20Family.pdf">sounded the same alarm</a>, saying, “the deterioration of the fabric of &#8230; society is the deterioration of the &#8230; family.” At the time, he was dismissed as an alarmist. The empty chairs around dinner tables prove him prophetic.
Classrooms reveal the next domino. The same ideology that pathologized masculine energy has left boys academically stranded. On the <a href="https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/highlights/reading/2022">2022 National Assessment of Educational Progress</a>, 8th-grade girls outread boys by nine scale points, continuing an unbroken gender gap that dates to 1992. Overall scores for both sexes hit the lowest level on record. 
College quads tell the same tale. Men have fallen to just <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/12/18/fewer-young-men-are-in-college-especially-at-4-year-schools/">44% of American undergraduates</a>, a gap that’s widened every year since 2011. UNESCO, surveying 140 countries, now calls boys’ lagging literacy a “<a href="https://www.unesco.org/en/articles/leave-no-child-behind-global-report-boys-disengagement-education">growing global crisis</a>.” Christina Hoff Sommers <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/9334744-boys-today-bear-the-burden-of-several-powerful-cultural-trends">captures the cultural headwind:</a> a school climate that “valorizes feelings and denigrates competition and risk…views masculinity as predatory. Natural male exuberance is no longer tolerated.” 
Why did “toxic masculinity” stick? Because it performed a linguistic jujitsu: attach a moral defect to the identity you want to erase, then offer “liberation” through re-education. Courage degenerates into “aggression,” leadership into “oppression,” fatherhood into “patriarchal privilege.” The outcome is predictable: abolish the virtues that civilize male strength, then lament the violence or apathy that follows.
Yet the data refuse to cooperate with the narrative. Children with involved fathers are <a href="https://www.lakeconews.com/news/community/commentary/56433-delcol-happy-father-s-day">40% less likely to repeat a grade</a>, more likely to earn As, and far less prone to behavioral problems. Even the <a href="https://www.apa.org/about/policy/boys-men-practice-guidelines.pdf">APA guidelines</a> — often cited as proof of masculinity’s hazards — concede that male risk-taking can be “harnessed for good” when directed toward service and innovation.
Harvard’s Center on the Developing Child <a href="https://developingchild.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/The-Science-of-Resilience2.pdf">summarizes</a> decades of research showing that self-regulation and disciplined resilience — traits once labeled stoic — buffer children from stress and reduce lifetime mental-health risk. In other words, the same virtues our culture now brands “toxic” are the ones empirical science says we need.
Trust the science.
Conservatives bear some blame for this inversion. While we tallied marginal-tax victories, Hollywood and higher ed rewrote the story of manhood. Institutions we once guided — churches, Scouts, civic clubs — sat vacant as HR departments filled the void. The cockpit was empty. The Left merely climbed in and took control.
We didn’t arrive here by accident. The cultural collapse around masculinity wasn’t inevitable — it was permitted. While conservatives focused on policy wins and economic metrics, the Left waged a full-spectrum cultural campaign that redefined manhood itself. They infiltrated the classroom, the newsroom, and the writers&#8217; room. They turned moral virtue into pathology and repackaged fatherhood as oppression. And we let them. Not out of malice, but out of misplaced trust — that truth would prevail unaided, that tradition could defend itself, that boys would become men by default.
Now, we stand in the wreckage of that assumption. A generation of boys has been raised to doubt their instincts, to apologize for their strength, and to see their fathers as liabilities rather than legacies. This is not just a political failure — it’s a civilizational one. But it also means the stakes are finally clear. If the conservative movement wants to conserve anything worth passing down, it must begin with this: the restoration of masculine virtue. Not nostalgia. Not anger. But clarity. The recognition that the war on manhood is really a war on order, on protection, on the nuclear family.
We’re not at the end of this story — we’re at the hinge. The institutions may be hollow, the narratives poisoned, but the hunger for truth remains. And in that hunger lies our moment. Not to manage decline, but to name it. Not to tinker around the edges, but to tell the truth loudly enough that our sons can hear it. Before we rebuild, we must remember who we are — and what we allowed to be stolen in the dark.
Masculinity is not toxic — it’s virtuous. When we reclaim that distinction, we invite our sons to stand tall instead of apologizing for existing — and we give civilization the allies it deserves.

Earlier this month, we celebrated the 80th anniversary of V-E Day, “Victory in Europe,” which marked the end of the European Theater’s part in the Second World War. It is a date certainly worth commemorating as it closed one of the darkest chapters in European history, which was the rise and fall of Hitler’s Third Reich.
For the countries in what today we call Western Europe that languished for years under the jackboot of Nazi oppression — France, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg, Denmark, Norway, Greece — the Allied victory truly represented liberation.
<div id="attachment_925633" style="width: 875px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-925633" class="size-large wp-image-925633" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/05/GettyImages-3093644-865x576.jpg" alt="Ecstatic crowds celebrating VE Day in London's Piccadilly, at the end of World War II, 8th May 1945.

But there was another side to V-E Day that seems to get glossed over. And that is the less happy fate of the Eastern European nations who were not liberated by the Anglo-Americans rolling in from the west, but rather the Red Army coming in from the east. And for those nations — Poland, Hungary, then-Czechoslovakia, the Baltic states — V-E Day merely meant trading one brutal oppressor for another. Indeed, as the Allies were closing in from both sides, the dark joke in Germany was “Optimists are learning English, pessimists are learning Russian.”
We have been conditioned for over 80 years to viscerally recoil at the very mention of the Führer’s name. Just say “Hitler” and the mind conjures up images of the Holocaust and mass murder of millions of innocents carried out by robotic, goose-stepping stormtroopers wearing their signature coal scuttle helmets.
Yet, when we utter the name “Stalin,” no such dark imagery materializes in the collective mind. And yet, in terms of pure numbers, it can be argued that the Soviet “Man of Steel” had more blood on his hands than even Hitler. Why the indifferent reaction?
It could perhaps be attributed to a curious media/academic tendency of apologetics towards communism. As polls consistently show, both of these institutions lean very much to the left. And Stalinism is the ultimate expression of their collective leftist ideology come to fruition in all its destructive inevitability. During the 1930s, for example, dispatches from Moscow-based New York Times correspondent Walter Duranty were shamefully obsequious towards Stalin, offering up for his readers images of a prosperous, happy communist USSR workers’ paradise.
No matter that the Soviet dictator was coldly stripping Ukraine of food and inducing a famine in 1932-1933 (called the “Holodomor”) during which anywhere from 3.5 to 5 million Ukrainians died of starvation — atrocities Duranty labeled as a “big scare” and “exaggeration.”
Then there was Stalin’s 1929-1933 genocide against the Kulaks (wealthy peasants who resisted his policies) to facilitate the expropriation of farmland. In one directive, the Soviet leader declared, “We must smash the Kulaks, liquidate them as a class.” Millions died.
And what of the estimated 700,000 to 6 million who died in Stalin’s Gulag, the far-flung network of concentration camps where he sent his enemies, whom the hyper-paranoid dictator saw all around him. (Figures vary widely; the latter number comes from dissident Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, who was imprisoned for eight years.)
Starting in 1936, Stalin wiped out his political and military adversaries in a series of show trials called “The Great Purge.” Stalin’s biographer Oleg V. Khlevniuk estimates that 1.6 million were arrested, with 700,000 shot; no one knows how many died of torture.

During the Second World War on the Eastern Front, Stalin was so profligate with the lives of his people that by the time the red banner of the USSR was flying over the Reichstag in the conquered Berlin, some 27 million Soviets lay dead. Many as a result of combat and German atrocities, of course, but also due to Stalin’s unimaginative strategies that callously offered up both his soldiers and civilians before the guns of the Wehrmacht as fodder.
Whereas Hitler’s policies were driven by twisted racial hatred, delusions of grandeur, a sense of grievance on behalf of a nation he felt was ill-treated at Versailles, and, by the end, drug-addled bona fide madness, Stalin in some ways is even more disturbing as there was a cold, calculating, and ruthless nature to his machinations.
Stalin will also go down as one of the most treacherous characters in history. It should be remembered that until Hitler turned on him and attacked Russia in June 1941, Stalin and the German dictator were allies. Hitler only felt secure enough to invade Poland and trigger the Second World War because Berlin and Moscow had just entered into a non-aggression pact the month before. In fact, people often forget that in September 1939, Poland was not just invaded by the Wehrmacht but also by the Red Army. After which, Stalin’s NKVD promptly rounded up 22,000 members of Poland’s military and intelligentsia, marched them to the Katyn Forest, and shot them all dead.

Says historian Victor Davis Hanson: “Of the six major belligerents of World War II, on the Axis side, Italy, Japan, and Germany, and the United States, Russia, and Britain, Stalin made a deal with every one of them at one time or another, and he honored the ones with the Axis better than he did us.”
But, unlike Hitler, Stalin’s image during the war was softened by the Roosevelt administration and pliant media due to the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union. FDR, especially, was hopelessly naïve about the duplicitous nature of the man whose military he was now supplying through Lend-Lease. As far as he saw it, the Russians were now our allies after all. And, frankly, we needed the Red Army to kill as many Germans as possible before we invaded France. The mass murderer of Moscow was thus re-christened “Uncle Joe” Stalin. And as it was his Red Army more than any other that destroyed the Wehrmacht, what he did to his own people and those in Eastern Europe were swept under the rug until the Cold War commenced in the late 1940s. After all, as the saying goes, “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

80 years after the war in Europe ended, modern Germany is still horrified by, and ashamed of, their Nazi past. But to this day, even in a post-Cold War Russia in which information regarding the horrific crimes carried out by the Bolsheviks is now widely accessible, Stalin is revered by the Russian people. A 2021 poll by the Levada Center found that 70% of Russians held a mostly or very favorable view of Stalin.
And that same lack of revulsion over Stalin’s decades-long reign of terror carries over into the West today as a misguided affinity for Marxism slithers its insidious way through the halls of so-called higher education. A poll by the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation found that millennials, particularly younger ones, displayed a dreadful ignorance of communism and even support for it. Almost half of Americans between the ages of 16 and 20 “said they would vote for a socialist, while 21% would go so far as to back a Communist.” Even more shocking was that a “third of millennials say they believe more people were killed under George W. Bush than Joseph Stalin.” This is criminal negligence on the part of academia — and dangerous.
I have a shirt that reads “Communism killed 100 million people and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.” Though gallows humor, the message is also a searing indictment of a left-leaning academic and media establishment that are utterly dismissive of the crimes perpetrated by the founding fathers of their own defunct and cruel ideologies. The verdict of history should have condemned Soviet communism to the ashbin of history decades ago. But a fatal attraction for this defunct ideology that invariably leads to mass murder is alive and well in the West today. This is a tragedy — and dangerous.

Democrat strategist James Carville told young Democrats to get over themselves in response to a leftist contestant on a reality TV show who broke things off with her partner because he was not progressive enough for her.
Carville responded to a scene from Netflix&#8217;s reality dating show &#8220;Love is Blind&#8221; where contestant Sara Carton broke off her relationship with Ben Mezzenga because of his politics.
“I remember I asked him about Black Lives Matter,” Carton said. “And I’m no expert. But when I asked him about it, he’s like, ‘I guess I never really thought too much about it.’ That affected me!”
Carville responded in an interview with Fox News: &#8220;Get over your preening and your moral superiority.&#8221;
&#8220;And the more pragmatic in how you approach life, you&#8217;ll end up being a lot happier, and you&#8217;ll actually win an election,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And therefore, you can actually do things, and you could do some of the things that you want, because if you lose, it doesn&#8217;t do any good. It&#8217;s about nothing. That&#8217;s what I would tell them.&#8221;

James Carville Has Dating Advice For Leftists: ‘Get Over Your Preening And Moral Superiority’

Palantir CEO Alex Karp said on Tuesday that people should forget everything they learned in college about the way the world works because what they have been taught is likely a lie.
Karp made the remarks during an interview on CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Squawk Box&#8221; while talking about his new book.
&#8220;Everything you learned at your school and college about how the world works is intellectually incorrect,&#8221; he said, noting that his book is &#8220;a way of seeing the world that may not be right, but it&#8217;s not wrong.&#8221;
&#8220;And so trying to be right is very hard, but you can definitely know what&#8217;s wrong,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And what you&#8217;ve been taught in college, that you basically should have no beliefs, that the West is inferior, that the intellectual tradition of the West, it leads to self-flagellation and losing on the battlefield, losing intellectually, losing your party, losing your country, losing your border, that your institutions can&#8217;t work because we&#8217;re so good. It&#8217;s actually wrong. And the West was actually never about that.&#8221;
&#8220;You can be good, decent, and win, and be intellectually correct,&#8221; he continued.
He said that the way that incentive structures are changing is forcing home hard realities that Americans will have to adjust to, including things like institutions having to &#8220;actually live up to their core mandate.&#8221;
&#8220;A country has to have a border. The educational institutions have to work,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;The military actually has to be scary.&#8221;
He noted that the West is &#8220;obviously superior&#8221; to other parts of the world and that it is important to recognize that basic fact and be proud of it.
&#8220;We had a pagan religion that has infiltrated our universities,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And that pagan religion basically says, everything that&#8217;s good about America, everything that actually works, is ipso facto bad.&#8221;
&#8220;And by the way, you can&#8217;t talk about it not working because it&#8217;s a religion. And it&#8217;s a new religion. It&#8217;s not an old great religion, Judaism, Christianity,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;It&#8217;s a new religion, and the tenets are, West is bad, nothing can work. If it works, it&#8217;s bad. And that way of thinking has corroded every aspect of our psyche.&#8221;

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/democratic-party" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Democrat</a> staff members who belong to a far-Left caucus wrote a letter to congressional leaders this week asking that they reduce the full-time work week to just 32 hours so that they do not get burned out.
The Congressional Progressive Staff Association, which represents House and Senate employees across the country, claimed that their proposal was about &#8220;a more sustainable approach to work on a national level.&#8221;
&#8220;By adopting a 32-hour workweek for staff on a rotating basis, you can accomplish these goals while retaining the productivity and quality of work you expect and deserve from your team,&#8221; they claimed. &#8220;We urge you to consider piloting the program in your own offices and encouraging your fellow Members across your conference or caucus to do the same.&#8221;
They complained that their jobs working for members of Congress were &#8220;often demanding and intensive.&#8221;
&#8220;Staffers routinely work long hours at a level of rigor that regularly leads to burnout,&#8221; the letter claimed.
The proposal, which was widely mocked online, said that members should institute &#8220;a 32-hour workweek for D.C.-based staff during district work periods and a 32-hour workweek for district-based staff while in-session.&#8221;
&#8220;Doing so — without a reduction in pay — would allow both D.C. and distinct staff to be fully available around the clock throughout more intensive periods when the Member is in town while allowing for a more sustainable schedule when workloads are more manageable,&#8221; they added. &#8220;If implemented, offices are not likely to see a drop in overall productivity.&#8221;

The staffers claimed that members who were skeptical should &#8220;engage in a six-month pilot&#8221; to see if the reduction in hours leads to increased outcomes.
Rep. Burgess Owens (R-UT) responded to the letter: &#8220;Members of Congress are always looking to hire and retain the best staff—hard workers who you can count on to go above and beyond on behalf of constituents.&#8221;
&#8220;My advice to these &#8216;progressive staffers&#8217; is simple: find a new industry. Public service is clearly not meant for you,&#8221; he added.
Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) responded: &#8220;If progressive hill staffers worked 0 hours per week, it would probably do more to help the Democrats win than anything else they could do.&#8221;
&#8220;You want to work 32 hours but get paid for 40? Nope,&#8221; said Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL). &#8220;The taxpayers aka your boss, deserve folks who hustle and work hard FULL TIME on their behalf. This is public service after all…&#8221;

As we prepare to enter the new year, we&#8217;re taking you back to some of The Daily Wire&#8217;s best reporting from 2024. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/inside-a-social-justice-academy-where-third-graders-learn-to-be-leftist-activists" target="_blank" rel="noopener">This article</a> was originally published on October 2. 
A “social justice academy” run by a California school district teaches elementary school kids to disavow “whiteness” and embrace transgender ideology, lesson plans shared with The Daily Wire show.
Every summer since 2021, the New Haven Unified School District in the San Francisco Bay area has trained rising 3rd-6th graders in leftist gender and racial politics during its annual “social justice academy.” Specific details about the academy’s curriculum were revealed in documents recently obtained from the school by Parents Defending Education through a public records request.
“Scholars will define and critically think about Social Justice, identify social injustices in the community, and create opportunities for activism through writing, action, art,” according to a plan from 2023 for the academy, which operates in deep blue Alameda County.
The three-week academy, which costs the district around $20,000, was formed, in part, due to an Alameda County resolution that instructs educators to “help our children understand and react to racial differences, and to teach our youth how to speak up against injustice, racism and inequality.”
Throughout the three-week course, students are taught the full gambit of leftist positions from “womxn rights” to Black Lives Matter and transgender ideology. The course comes as test scores show that under half of elementary students in the district are proficient in math while only half are proficient in reading.
A lesson plan from week one shows that the academy focuses on issues of racial and sexual identity while reading from the book “Not My Idea: A Book About Whiteness.” The book says that “whiteness is a bad deal. It always was” and that “you can be white without signing on to whiteness.”
The students are also taught that it is “white supremacy” that the 10 richest Americans are white and that governors were 96% white based on 2016-era statistics, according to planning materials for the academy from 2024.
In another exercise, students were taught about stereotypes by being forced to fire people from a list of names, before gradually learning more about them, including their sexual identities and disabilities.

In week two of the academy, students are taught about Black Lives Matter, defunding the police, and taught to compare former President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler.
The comparison between Trump and Hitler happens during a section on “dehumanizing language,” where students are shown an image of the two men with quotes. However, the quote attributed to Trump is completely fabricated.

Trump is quoted in the image as saying “Undocumented immigrants are not human; they are animals.” While Trump has referred to violent gang members and murderers as “animals,” he never said all illegal immigrants are animals in a blanket manner.

The course also takes a pro-Palestinian bent, accusing Israel of being a colonialist power and pointing students to a video from the leftist outlet The Root called “Why Black people should care about Palestinian Liberation.”
Also during the second week, students are taught about “defunding the police,” the history of the Black Lives Matter movement, and the “criminalization of BIPOC.” The course materials argue that school disciplinary practices create a “school-to-prison” pipeline that disproportionately impacts black students.
During week three of the social justice academy, students read from two books pushing transgender ideology. One book, “I Am Jazz,” is based on Jazz Jennings, a man who identifies as a woman. Jennings’ parents moved him towards “gender-transition” at age 3, and he quickly became the star of a reality TV show that highlighted transgenderism.
Students are taught that being “transgender is not a choice” and how to be an “LGBTQIA+ Ally.” Course materials list “transgender rights” as things like “access to medical care” and “all gender bathrooms.”
Students are also taught about a Florida law that prohibited discussion of gender identity and sexual orientation for young children in classrooms. The legislation was derisively referred to as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill by the Left.
New Haven Unified School District did not respond to requests for comment.
Erika Sanzi, the director of outreach for Parents Defending Education, said that the academy should be shut down.
“This summer program should have been advertised as an indoctrination camp where ideologues who spell the word ‘women’ with an x feed students propaganda about defunding the police, transgenderism, and oppression,” she told The Daily Wire. “At the same time that they lie to kids about book bans, the curriculum includes a children’s book that calls whiteness bad and equates it with the devil.”

Michigan Democrats are pushing multiple pieces of controversial legislation before they lose their hold on the Michigan House of Representatives at the end of the year. Two Democrats and the entire House Republican conference, however, skipped the state legislature&#8217;s sessions on Wednesday, hamstringing Democrats&#8217; last-minute efforts.
Far-Left Democrats in the House have been pushing for a vote on a bill to allow illegal immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses, and a police reform bill that would limit law enforcement&#8217;s use of no-knock warrants. But Republicans, joined by Democratic Rep. Karen Whitsett, want the House to focus on fixing the roads, protecting restaurant workers&#8217; tips, and fixing issues with a paid sick leave law.
Michigan House Republicans walked out of the legislative session last week, slamming Democrats for ignoring legislation on road improvements, minimum wage, and paid sick leave bills that Republican members argue are more pressing issues. Democrats currently have a trifecta in the state, controlling the state House, Senate, and governor&#8217;s mansion.
The Michigan Republicans did not return for sessions on Wednesday and do not plan to return on Thursday, which is listed as the final day on the voting calendar until the state House flips back to Republican control in 2025. Whitsett also did not attend Wednesday&#8217;s session, meaning Democrats lacked the votes to pass any bills.
&#8220;I’m staying home for my constituents,&#8221; Whitsett said, according to <a href="https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2024/12/17/whitsett-karen-house-majority-dems-quorum/77060859007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Detroit News</a>. &#8220;We’re not going to be voting on garbage bills that do nothing for our community and have a negative impact.”
Restaurant workers and bartenders have voiced <a href="https://www.wxyz.com/news/servers-bartenders-pack-michigan-capitol-to-save-the-tipping-system" target="_blank" rel="noopener">concerns</a> about a minimum wage law that is set to take effect in February that they say will decrease the money they make from tips. Business owners, meanwhile, are concerned about a new law on required sick leave for nearly all employees. Some business owners <a href="https://www.bridgemi.com/business-watch/businesses-fear-worst-michigans-new-sick-time-law-will-lawmakers-act" target="_blank" rel="noopener">say</a> it will hurt their efforts to run a punctual and effective operation while also hurting employees who already have sick leave benefits. Unless the state legislature acts, the new minimum wage and paid sick time laws will take effect in two months. Michigan House Speaker-elect Matt Hall told The Daily Wire that Republicans also want to vote on a plan to fix the roads that won&#8217;t raise any taxes.
&#8220;The things these Democrats are working on are radical and out of touch with the people of Michigan or unimportant in most cases,&#8221; Hall told The Daily Wire in a phone interview. &#8220;We want to spend our time here focusing on the issues that matter most to the working people of Michigan.&#8221;
Hall added that if Democrats refuse to vote on the roads bill, or minimum wage or sick leave laws, then the House should adjourn. He said that Republicans will pick these issues up when they take over the Michigan House next month.
Michigan Democratic Attorney General Dana Nessel accused Michigan House Republicans and Whitsett of taking &#8220;literally criminal&#8221; actions.
&#8220;Article IV of the Michigan Constitution defines the role of the Legislature and how it is to be constituted. The chief purposes of the Legislature are to enact new laws and amend or repeal existing laws,&#8221; Nessel wrote on Facebook. &#8220;MCL 750.478: When any duty is or shall be enjoined by law upon any public officer, or upon any person holding any public trust or employment, every willful neglect to perform such duty, where no special provision shall have been made for the punishment of such delinquency, constitutes a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment for not more than 1 year or a fine of not more than $1,000.00.&#8221;
Michigan House rules allow for the Speaker to call on the sergeant-at-arms to bring absent lawmakers to the session, but Democratic Speaker Joe Tate has so far declined to use that authority. House Speaker Pro Tem Laurie Pohutsky said she is encouraging Tate to dispatch the sergeant-at-arms.
&#8220;And I am not the only one,&#8221; Pohutsky said. &#8220;He is the Speaker of the House. That is his decision to make.&#8221;
Later on Wednesday, Whitsett said that she plans to be in attendance on Thursday since some of her bills will be taken up for a vote, Gongwer News <a href="https://x.com/ElenaDurnbaugh/status/1869505856381026506" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.
In the final weeks of the 2024 session, Michigan House Democrats have crammed through leftist legislation, including a bill to prevent libraries from removing books on sexual orientation and gender identity and a bill that updates the state&#8217;s hate crime law to include protections for sexual orientation and gender identity or expression. Those bills are now in the hands of the Democrat-controlled state Senate, which could also be in a bind as one Democratic state Senator, Sylvia Santana, also announced that she will be skipping the legislative session, The Detroit News <a href="https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2024/12/17/whitsett-karen-house-majority-dems-quorum/77060859007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.

Lawmakers are scheduled to come back for a session at noon on Thursday with a House Democratic Caucus spokesman telling reporters, &#8220;The agenda for today is the agenda for tomorrow,&#8221; according to <a href="https://x.com/JordynHermani/status/1869470853475528956" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bridge Michigan</a>. In the state Senate, Democrats need 20 votes to pass any legislation, but Santana&#8217;s absence puts their count at 19. Similarly, in the state House, Democrats need 56 votes, but they only have 55 with Whitsett skipping the session.
House Republicans gathered for a press conference at a Lansing-area restaurant on Wednesday morning, where Speaker-elect Hall continued his calls for Democrats to take action with Republicans to save restaurant workers&#8217; tipping system. He also slammed AG Nessel over her comments.
&#8220;We&#8217;re not going to be bullied and intimidated by this attorney general,&#8221; Hall said. &#8220;And she has no business as a member of the executive branch telling us in the legislative branch what to do. Look, I&#8217;m an attorney too, so I hope she knows about the separation of powers, but we&#8217;re not going to be bullied by her.&#8221;
&#8220;She knows that oversight is coming and accountability to her department and scrutiny of her budget,&#8221; he added. &#8220;And we&#8217;re going to get her office under control.&#8221;

Democrat strategist Julian Epstein said late this week that the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/leftist" target="_blank" rel="noopener">political Left</a> lost the 2024 election because they are too woke and they are condescending to others.
Epstein made the remarks during a Friday interview on Fox News while discussing the course correction that he would like to see his party make.
&#8220;We have spoken many times in the last year or two about what the Democrats are doing wrong. And Democrats in their postmortem are sort of talking about these things,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They had the wrong candidate and their policies were wrong.&#8221;
He said Democrats needed to recruit &#8220;better candidates and they need to move back to the center on economic and cultural policies.&#8221;
&#8220;But my point has been that there is a deeper cultural problem with the Left and with the Democratic Party,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;It&#8217;s a party of wokeness and it&#8217;s a party of moral condescension. So on, you know, your previous segment where you&#8217;re talking about immigration, what the Left has done is they have said to people, &#8216;If you disagree with us on open borders, then you&#8217;re a bad person.'&#8221;
&#8220;And what that has done is it has caused the Left to shut its ears and to stop listening to people,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And it&#8217;s made it a lot dumber. It makes them feel good amongst themselves. It helps them achieve social status amongst fellow progressives.&#8221;

President-elect Donald Trump posted his Thanksgiving Day message early Thursday morning on Truth Social and X, celebrating &#8220;the great people of our Nation&#8221; who just gave him a &#8220;landslide victory.&#8221;
Trump also called out &#8220;Radical Left Lunatics&#8221; in his post, saying they &#8220;have miserably failed.&#8221; The Thanksgiving Day message comes as Trump prepares for a second term in the White House, which will commence in less than two months.
&#8220;Happy Thanksgiving to all, including to the Radical Left Lunatics who have worked so hard to destroy our Country, but who have miserably failed, and will always fail, because their ideas and policies are so hopelessly bad that the great people of our Nation just gave a landslide victory to those who want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! Don’t worry, our Country will soon be respected, productive, fair, and strong, and you will be, more than ever before, proud to be an American!&#8221; Trump wrote.

Trump&#8217;s post takes on a similar tone as his 2023 Thanksgiving Day message when he also slammed &#8220;Radical Left Lunatics&#8221; and railed against New York Attorney General Letitia James, who brought civil fraud charges against him. Trump also blasted President Joe Biden, who he said &#8220;allowed our Country to go to HELL,&#8221; and at the end of his message, Trump added, &#8220;Have no fear, however, we will WIN the Presidential Election of 2024, &amp; MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!&#8221;

Following his election victory, Trump also celebrated the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/judge-chutkan-dismisses-federal-election-charges-against-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dismissal</a> of charges related to his alleged mishandling of classified documents and federal election charges, which were brought by special counsel Jack Smith.
“These cases, like all of the other cases I have been forced to go through, are empty and lawless, and should never have been brought,” Trump said. “Over $100 Million Dollars of Taxpayer Dollars has been wasted in the Democrat Party’s fight against their Political Opponent, ME.”
Trump will likely spend the Thanksgiving holiday at his Mar-a-Lago estate in South Florida, USA Today <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/local/2024/11/26/where-will-donald-trump-spend-thanksgiving-where-he-always-does/76572260007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.

“Today I finally did something I’ve been meaning to do for a while,” she said in the clip posted to <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@joyreidofficial/video/7436979734317108510?lang=en">TikTok</a>. “The reason for doing it, and kissing goodbye [to] my 1.9 million followers, is because I haven’t been posting for a long time. I just didn’t want to be contributing content once it was purchased by its present owner.”
The host said she was fed up with “negativity” on X.
“Every so often, I would use it to just look at news that was trending and what’s happening and I would just use it as an aggregator, but I just realized that’s not really worth it,” she added. “Because in order to do the news aggregation and just look at all, you have to wade through a lot of dreck and just abuse and a lot of negativity, and it’s just not worth it.”
Many other leftists have also left X in recent days. The U.K.-based news outlet The Guardian announced this week it will no longer post on X from its official accounts, citing “disturbing content.” NPR also stopped using X after the platform added a “state-affiliated media” tag to NPR’s profile.

Former CNN host Don Lemon said he was leaving the social media platform, claiming it’s no longer a place for “honest” debate following Trump’s big win.
“I once believed that it was a place for honest debate and discussion, transparency and free speech, but I now feel it does not serve that purpose,” Lemon said on Wednesday.
Actress Jamie Lee Curtis also left X this week, but didn’t state a specific reason. “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,” Curtis wrote on Instagram. “Courage to change the things I can. And the wisdom to know the difference.”
Meanwhile, British actor Ricky Gervais <a href="https://x.com/rickygervais/status/1857116329125294490">posted</a> an announcement of his own, stating, “I’m not leaving here by the way. I’m on Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky &amp; Threads now, but I’ll always be a Twitter guy. (Never calling it X) Cheers!”
