Forbes Names Dylan Mulvaney to ’30 Under 30′ List.

Forbes has named Dylan Mulvaney, the transgender activist who crashed Bud Light, to its ’30 Under 30′ list.

“The actress [sic] and LGBTQ+ activist gained viral fame with her [sic] ‘Days of Girlhood’ TikTok series, which documented her [sic] gender transition and drew more than 1 billion views,” Forbes stated in a profile.

Only later in its profile did Forbes acknowledge Mulvaney “found herself [sic] at the center of an unexpected political crossfire after Bud Light paid her [sic] to post a video featuring a custom beer with her [sic] face on the can, sparking a widespread boycott of the brand.”

Partnering with Mulvaney had a devastating impact on Bud Light. Billions were wiped off the value of parent company Anheuser-Busch. Tanking sales also saw it fall from its perch as America’s most-purchased beer.

This was quickly glossed over by Forbes. The business magazine instead emphasized the fact Mulvaney “landed partnerships with companies like Nike and MAC” and “raked in an estimated $2 million in earnings” last year alone.

Mulvaney decided he was female in his mid-twenties, charting his “transition” on social media. On ‘Day 222 of being a girl’ – less than a year in – he was invited to meet Joe Biden. The elderly Democrat was interrogated on “trans issues” at the White House and lectured on the experience of “transness”.

Mulvaney has undergone “facial feminization” surgery. He has not removed his penis and testicles, however, insisting “women can have bulges”.

WaPo Threatens More Layoffs While 120 Employees Take Voluntary Buyouts.

Patty Stonesifer, CEO of the Washington Post, announced 120 employees at the liberal newspaper have accepted a buyout – voluntarily ending their term of employment. The Bezos-owned corporate news outlet informed staff they would need another 120 employees to accept a buyout over the next two weeks otherwise layoffs will be implemented. The paper is believed to have around 2,500 employees in total.

The buyout package being offered by the Washington Post‘s management is being extended to additional news teams and the acceptance caps increased in the hopes more employees will opt for voluntary separation.

“We want everyone to understand that we need 240 acceptances to help restore the Post’s financial health,” Stonesifer wrote in the memo. “We have made the decision, if we fall short of this goal, to implement involuntary layoffs in those areas where we have already identified that positions do not need to be replaced, where work can be reassigned more efficiently or where we can otherwise achieve cost savings.”

The Washington Post is owned by Nash Holdings, a limited liability company controlled by billionaire Jeff Bezos. The PAC affiliated with Bezos’s Amazon.com contributed over $1 million to Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign, while the company overall donated $1.7 million. Bezos himself personally chipped in $5,000. Former President Donald Trump received just over $160,000 from Amazon.

Employees at the Washington Post contributed just shy of $70,000 to Democrats during the 2020 campaign cycle. Republican candidates received just under $4,000 in total.

Three months ago, former President Trump’s social media site, Truth Social, dropped a $3.8 billion lawsuit against Bezos and the Washington Post after the latter published a report which linked his Truth Social platform to a “porn friendly” bank. The lawsuit alleges WaPo “published an egregious hit piece that falsely accused TMTG of securities fraud and other wrongdoing” and “has been on a years-long crusade against TMTG characterized by the concealment of relevant information in its possession.”

‘OPENLY AUTHORITARIAN’ – Media Panic Intensifies As Trump 2nd Term Looks Likely.

Left-wing media is panicking at the prospect of Donald Trump winning the 2024 presidential election because the former President intends to curb the power of federal agencies such as the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) as well as launch investigations into the Biden family‘s dubious financial affairs.

A report published in the Guardian has raised the possibility of Trump’s second term being “openly authoritarian” and a throwback to either 1970s Latin America or 1930s Europe – a comparison used both before Trump was elected in 2016 and throughout his first presidential term.

“I’m hard pressed to find any candidates anywhere who are so open that they would use the power of the state to go after critics and enemies,” argues Harvard professor Steven Levitsky, who, however, fails to comment on the 91 indictments filed against the former President.

“This is one of the most openly authoritarian campaigns I’ve ever seen,” he adds.

The report is similarly spooked by the prospect of “Project 2025,” which aims to replace federal employees inside agencies like the FBI and DOJ and branches of government such as the Department of Homeland Security and Education with conservative-minded individuals.

It is suggested even former DOJ officials are “appalled” by the project. Donald Ayer, a former U.S. Deputy Attorney General, says, “Project 2025 seems to be full of a whole array of ideas that are designed to let Donald Trump function as a dictator, by completely eviscerating many of the restraints built into our system.”

Others are concerned that Trump would pardon January 6 protestors like Jacob Chansley, who was released early from federal prison after it was shown by Tucker Carlson that he was escorted into the U.S. Capitol by police officers. Trump is “promising them pardons for the insurrection. This is about giving power to an autocrat and letting his id take over,” asserts Columbia University researcher and CNN historian Timothy Naftali.

The 45th President is storming ahead of incumbent President Joe Biden in the polls less than 12 months before the 2024 presidential election. Trump is currently on course to receive over 300 Electoral College votes, way above the required 270 to become President.

WATCH: Farage Clashes with YouTuber Nella Rose Over Immigration on Reality Show.

Nigel Farage stood his ground against Nella Rose when confronted over his stance on immigration by Nella Rose on jungle-based reality show I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, with the YouTube personality, who is black, accusing the Brexit champion of “want[ing] us gone!”

“Apparently you’re anti-immigrants,” Rose said to Farage, prompting Farage to ask: “Who told you that?”

“Oh, the Internet,” Rose responded confidently.

“Oh, well there we are then, it must be true,” Farage quipped.

“OK, well, why don’t black people like you?” she pressed on, with Farage answering she would be “amazed” at the number who do.

“If you came with me through South London, you’d be astonished,” he said.

“What were you doing in South London, Nigel?” she asked, seeming amazed a white person would have any business there.

“Well, I’m there every day,” he told her.

Rose continued to hector the Brexiteer, who insisted he was not “anti-immigrant” but did not believe immigration could continue with the unprecedented numbers.

“I’m one of the numbers!” Rose exploded.

“So that’s it, then? Should it be five million a year? Ten million a year?” Farage asked. “[S]ince 2000, the British population has increased by 10 million,” he explained.

“Good thing!”

“Good thing, unless you want a [family doctor] appointment,” Farage answered.

Rose insisted Britain would collapse without immigrants and people of immigrant descent, and told Farage: “You want us gone!”

Farage refused to yield, however, telling her “stop it” and pointing out she was “not listening to a single word I’m saying.”

The New York Times’s ‘Conservative’ Lawyers Aren’t Conservatives At All.

The New York Times is elevating a slate of ostensibly ‘conservative’ jurists as an alternative to the center-right Federalist Society. Writing in the Times, anti-Trump Republicans George Conway, Barbara Comstock, and J. Michael Luttig argue the Federalist Society has “…conspicuously declined to speak out against the constitutional and other legal excesses of Mr. Trump and his administration.”

In response the three are announcing the formation of a new legal non-profit, Society for the Rule of Law Institute, they say will “rebuild a conservative legal movement that supports and defends American democracy, the Constitution and the rule of law.” In reality, the new group has less to do with promoting conservative legal theory and more with lobbying and pro-corporate deregulation.

George Conway, the infamous ex-husband of Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway, is a former partner at Wachtell Lipton, a lobbying firm with deep ties in the defense and airline industries. His co-authors, Barbara Comstock – a lawyer and former anti-Trump Republican Congresswoman – and former U.S. Appeals Court Judge J. Michael Luttig both have close ties corporate interests as well. Comstock has lobbied on behalf of Carnival Cruise Corporation, the fin-tech industry, and serves as a senior advisor to the K Street firm Baker Donelson. J. Michael Luttig left his cushy judgeship for the lucrative job of general counsel for Boeing – a position he held from 2006 until 2019.

The legal scholars being promoted by the three anti-Trump lawyers and their new legal group have just as equally concerning corporate and political ties. Former federal appellate judge Michael McConnell, a legal scholar the group says is a “model for a new and more responsible conservative legal movement” clerked for Supreme Court Justice William Brennan who led the high court’s liberal-wing. McConnell, far from a conservative, holds a fairly hardline libertarian view of the law – often ruling against government attempts to regulate corporations – and was vocally critical of the Supreme Court’s Bush v. Gore decision.

Another former federal appellate judge named by the group, Thomas B. Griffith, has a long track-record of liberal legal decisions that led then Sens. Barack Obama and Joe Biden to support his 2005 nomination to the federal circuit court. At the time, the Washington Post praised Griffith’s nomination noting he is “widely respected by people in both parties.”

The last legal scholar the group names is Princeton political scientist Keith Whittington, another libertarian-leaning legal theorist who appears to be overly concerned with the issue government regulation of corporations. Whittington is an occasional guest writer at the libertarian legal blog, Volokh Conspiracy.

It appears the only ‘conservative legal tradition’ the new group founded by Conway, Comstock, and Luttig aims to reclaim is the tradition establishment Republicans passing off pro-corporate policies as foundational to conservative ideology.

WILD: MSNBC’s Morning Joe Says Trump Will EXECUTE His Enemies in 2nd Term.

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough told his audience on Tuesday that Donald J. Trump will “execute” and “imprison” and “drive from the country” those he deems as his enemies during a second presidential term.

Ranting alongside co-host Mika Brzezinski on his Morning Joe program, Scarborough said: “He’s not a normal candidate, he is running to end American democracy as we know it… If you want to be fair, then you will frame this as Joe Biden being the candidate that supports American democracy, and Donald Trump, a candidate who supports a new form of government here, this authoritarian here.”

While inviting anti-white, anti-Semitic racist Al Sharpton to comment, the MSNBC host went on to complain about people saying you “can’t compare” the 45th President to a “past Nazi leader”, insisting only “the American judicial system” stopped Trump from going as far as the 20th-century dictators.

“Just because he hasn’t done it yet doesn’t mean he won’t do it when he gets a chance to do it, and if he is voted into office… he will imprison, he will execute, whoever he’s allowed to imprison, execute, uh, uh, uh, uh, drive from the country,” Scarborough rambled.” Just look at his past. It’s not really hard to read!”

Scarborough and Brzezinski were once great friends of Trump, and even called him on the day of the 2016 election – anticipating he would lose – and told him they “hope[d] we’ll be friends after this.”

Trump himself said they were still trying to ingratiate themselves shortly after his victory, describing how “low I.Q. Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe, came… to Mar-a-Lago 3 nights in a row around New Year’s Eve, and insisted on joining me.”

“She was bleeding badly from a face-lift,” Trump recalled. “I said no!”

Ousted CNN Boss Jeff Zucker May Take Over UK ‘Telegraph’ Paper, ‘Spectator’ Magazine.

The Telegraph and The Spectator, Britain’s most prominent center-right broadsheet and news magazine, are set to be bought out by U.S. firm RedBird Capital and an Abu Dhabi fund, who will pay off its bank debts and reportedly place disgraced ex-CNN president Jeff Zucker in charge. Zucker would almost certainly drag both publications to the left.

At CNN, he oversaw the celebration of the Chinese Communist Party’s founding, pushed staff to divide America and overhype supposed scandals surrounding the Trump administration, and presided over multiple, internal sex scandals.

The Telegraph has increasingly adopted left-wing issues on social and cultural issues, promoting adultery, defending Cuties, and suggesting the “theory that history is defined by alpha males feels unfashionable and offensive.” Broadly, however, the brand has retained center-right dispositions, endorsing Brexit in 2016, as well platforming the likes of Nigel Farage, and publishing anti-woke exposés.

The Spectator has drifted leftward for some time, chaired by globalist Andrew Neil, who is pro-immigration and pro-amnesty. The magazine supported Brexit in 2016, but from a neoliberal “global Britain” perspective.

If taken over by Zucker, the newspaper and magazine will be the latest (and last) right-leaning publications in Britain to be taken over by the left. The Daily Mail was taken over by an anti-Brexit editor in 2018, while the Daily Express, once a strong supporter of Nigel Farage, Brexit, and border controls, was taken over by a far-left conglomerate which immediately banned negative stories on immigration the same year.

CNN Says Pro-Hamas Man With Beard Is a ‘Female Rabbi’.

CNN continues to give airtime to radical left-wing agitators whose pro-Hamas stances are well outside the political mainstream. In the latest instance, the corporate news network aired an interview with ‘Rabbi’ Jessica Rosenberg – who appears to be a biological male claiming to be a woman. Rosenberg, who sports long hair, lipstick, and facial hair in the form of a goatee, made headlines in early November when he heckled President Joe Biden during a Minnesota speech on the U.S. economy.

“Mr. President, if you care about Jewish people, as a rabbi, I need you to call for a ceasefire right now,” Rosenberg shouted from the audience as the President spoke. Biden responded to Rosenberg saying: “I think we need a pause. A pause means giv[ing] time to get the prisoners out.” The President stopped short of agreeing with the call for a cease-fire.

On CNN, Rosenberg once again reiterated his call for the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas, claiming, “We cannot bomb our way to peace. We need a political solution, not a military solution.” Rosenberg goes on to claim that the lack of equal rights for Palestinians is a fundamental threat to Israel, not terror attacks from Hamas.

Ostensibly a rabbi in the “reformed” sect of Judaism, Rosenberg serves as an activist and organizer for Bend The Arc Jewish Action – a left-wing group funded by billionaire George Soros and his son Alex. Rosenberg also works with a pro-Hamas group, Jewish Voice for Peace which recently stormed the rotunda of the Cannon House Office Building while calling for Congress to push for a cease-fire in Gaza.

Pfizer & CCP Marketing Partner Is Top Investor in Govt-Backed ‘Fact Check’ Network.

NewsGuard, pitched to social media corporations by former Wall Street Journal publisher as a “vaccine against misinformation,” boasts French multinational advertising and public relations company Publicis Groupe as its biggest investor. Publicis represents a host of corporate and government clients including pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, whose coronavirus vaccine has been questioned by news outlets given a low rating by NewsGuard.

NewsGuard has a BrandGuard offering for advertisers, which strongly discourages the placement of adverts on websites it deems to be spreading “fake news” or other alleged disinformation and misinformation.

Critics note NewsGuard often appears to be selective in its choice of targets, however, with the likes of The New York Times being given a “perfect” rating despite its role in spreading false and partisan information from anonymous sources during the Russiagate hoax.

In addition to Pfizer, Publicis also represents ByteDance, owner of the TikTok app which many believe to be a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) tool for psychological warfare and propaganda.

Daily Wire Civil War? Ben Shapiro Blasts ‘Disgraceful, Faux Sophistication’ of Candace Owens.

Daily Wire founder Ben Shapiro is publicly at odds with Candace Owens, one of the news company’s leading personalities, for her refusal to back the Israeli government over its war with Hamas. Owens has stated she wishes America to stay out of the conflict, claiming “the lack of humanity that I have seen from both sides has been very troubling for me.”

This equivalence-drawing between Israel and Hamas has drawn Shapiro’s ire, and comes in addition to Owens raising issues with universities and donors taking action against anti-Israel students. She suggested on her Daily Wire show that people are asking “why Jews are so special” and argued white gentiles have had to “endure much worse” in terms of “rampant BLM, white man can’t do anything right actively being taught in the classroom” for years, without any comparable action. She also issued a mock endorsement of Nikki Haley “for President of Israel”.

Shapiro, who is an Orthodox Jew, revealed he regards Owens’s position as “absolutely disgraceful,” accusing his of adopting a position of “faux sophistication” which is “ridiculous” in a leaked video.

“Everybody can see the moves that she’s making and the things that she’s saying, and I find them disreputable,” he said.

Shapiro noted Owens “still works for my company” – although it is unclear whether or not that may change in the near future.
