WHY ARE THE DEMOCRATS PRO-RAPE? BRS Kash, Atlanta rapper who headlined Ossoff, Warnock rally, slammed after ‘rape’ tweet surfaces.
An Atlanta rapper who headlined a rally at a church this week for Democratic Senate candidates Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock came under fire after several tweets denigrating women and making light of rape surfaced.
“If she say stop an u still hit it from da back is it an accident or rape lol,” BRS Kash, who recently released his new single, “Throat Baby,” tweeted in 2012, according to screenshots circulating on Twitter.
The rapper headlined a drive-in rally Monday at the New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Lithonia and urged audience members to vote for Mr. Ossoff and Mr. Warnock in the Jan. 5 runoffs, which will determine which party will control the U.S. Senate.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: Will the Left Media Ever Pay for Trump-Era Malpractice? “While Joe Biden’s almost five decades of lackluster time as a plagiarist/buffoon in Washington may have given him the name recognition to run for president, it was the vile behavior of the American mainstream media that helped him perpetrate the greatest fraud in American electoral history. The double-whammy of the MSM lying about President Trump and lying for the senile idiot in the basement made it easier for the Dems to pull off the Magic Mail-In 80 Million Vote circus.”
SUDAN RETIRED: It’s the last regular StrategyPage Sudan and South Sudan update. This is good news. StrategyPage has covered war-riven Greater Sudan since 1999 — 21 years. But in the last 18 months the situation has improved. StrategyPage editor Jim Dunnigan added this note to the update: “Since StrategyPage began in 1999 we’ve retired more wars than we’ve added. As we have noted frequently, the trend since the 1990s has been fewer wars.” He’s right, but tell that to the superficial media. I added an analysis of the significance of the Sudan update of February 26, 2003. Remember Darfur?
VALKYRIE LAUNCH: An XQ-58A Valkyrie unmanned aerial vehicle launches at the U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground, Ariz. According to the USAF caption “The flight successfully demonstrated the ability of new communications data to exchange information with an F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II…” Photo taken Dec. 9, 2020. Note the caption also says the Valkyrie is cheap — cheap in comparison to a manned aircraft. We’re already in the age of drone and robot warfare.

THE DEMOCRATS PROMISE TO REPEAL THE SALT DEDUCTION LIMIT THAT MADE THIS HAPPEN: 2017 Federal Tax Cut Turned Out To Be Progressive. A Few Lessons For Illinois And Beyond. “For the first time, we have the actual results instead of estimates and assertions. In 2018, the first year for which we have hard numbers on TCJA’s effect, the wealthiest Americans paid a greater portion of the burden than they did before.”
It’s no wonder at all why wealthy coastal elites practically pushed one another out of the way to help drag Joe Biden across the finish line.
BIDEN’S ECONOMICS WILL CAUSE THE COMING ‘DARK WINTER,’ NOT COVID: As is so frequently the case these days, the Issues & Insights gang puts it best.
“Apparently it never occurred to Biden and his handlers that government intervention, not the virus, caused 2020’s downturn. Nor have they even begun to understand that Democrats’ economic policies, filled with steep, punitive taxes, and impossible-to-jump regulatory hurdles, are a slow-motion march of the economic lockdowns that almost instantly paralyzed the economy this year.”
