PETE BUTTIGIEG SHOCKED TO LEARN BLACK PEOPLE AREN’T HAPPY WITH DEMOCRATS:
Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg was shocked Thursday to find out black people aren’t happy with Democrats while speaking on the Breakfast Club with Charlamagne Tha God.
“You do realize, Pete, a lot of black people feel like Democrats have kept no promises since they’ve been in office,” Charlamagne Tha God said.
“Really?” a seemingly surprised Buttigieg responded.
“Yes,” Charlamagne Tha God said.

QUESTION ASKED AND ANSWERED: Is this the Reason Jon Stewart Went Woke? “How did Stewart, reliably liberal but typically sober in his approach, become so aggressively woke? It’s not as if he evolved slowly over time, taking a decade or more to recalibrate his positions. One can point to an early attack on Stewart’s legacy as the start of his evolution. Several, actually.”

NONE OF THIS IS WRONG, BUT IT SOUNDS CALCULATED TO DISCOURAGE FURTHER IMMIGRATION FROM THE NORTH:
See, people are pouring into Tampa Bay the way the Devil’s Juice pours into a chalice on a Friday night. Pick your source; they all show folks flocking here from other states and cities in Florida. Redfin recently named Tampa the No. 3 city in the country people want to move to, after Miami and Phoenix. It’s reflected in home values and the fact that buying or renting involves a deposit of $6,000,000 and solving a warlock’s riddles three. . . .
Organizations are squeezing spring festivals into the Last Few Bearable Days. There is a breeze. The nights are lovely. People are posting captions that read, “We live where you vacation!” which is overused, please try again. They are happy, though. No one is getting divorced. Literally no one. It’s science.
If you moved here in the winter, please know it’s about to come crashing down, and you soon will awake in a hell of your own design. . . .
The good news is, you’ll soon figure out which part of your patio is slightly sloped, because the standing water will be there for six months in the spot where you had cute string light dinners in March. Around August, you will realize your pressure washer from Costco has rusted in the shed. Watch out for the flies!
Don’t come to Knoxville, though. Poisonous snakes! Hillbillies with boobytraps defending their stills! Huge, intimidating pickup trucks!
UPDATE: Did I mention the pollen? The allergies are awful. Also, there are opossums everywhere, creeping around your back yard, getting into your trash cans. And people openly carrying firearms and big knives! Don’t come!!

ROGER SIMON: Transgendered in Kindergarten? What’s Really Behind the Insane New Sex Ed?
N is for Nonbinary and T is for Trans.
Did you know that?
If you were a Williamson Country, Tennessee, kindergartner and clicked on the book “The GayBCs” on the iPad given by your school for you to take home over the weekend, you would.
You’d also know the B is for Bi. (You can shout it out loud/ “I like boys and girls/ and that makes me proud.”)
C is—needless to say—for Coming Out and D is—what else—for Drag.
I won’t bother you with the noxious doggerel accompanying those—you can probably make it up for yourself. And no, it’s not a product of Disney, although, given recent developments, it almost seems as if it were. It was published in 2019 by Quirk Books with a recommended age range of 4 to 8.
According to GeekDad, this is “A great way to introduce 26 words to kids while teaching them to read.”
Teaching them to read? Do you teach the average 5-year-old reading with the word “nonbinary” (not to mention “I is for Intersex”)? Well, maybe if your kid is John Stuart Mill who is said to have learned Greek at age 3.
Actually, GeekDad inadvertently let the cat out of the bag. “The GayBCs” are educationally meaningless, in fact, an educational fraud. Hardly any children at that age are prepared to learn to read from them, with or without the traditional parental accompaniment.
It would most likely do the reverse, make the child so overwhelmed and baffled by what would have to be incomprehensible concepts for them, he or she (apologies for the old-fashioned pronouns) could be turned off reading altogether. It certainly wouldn’t help.
Even Mill undoubtedly wouldn’t have had the maturity to deal with bisexuality at the age of 4, a far more complicated emotional question than the largely intellectual challenge of learning a language.
But that emotional challenge is what is being put in front of the children of rich and Republican Williamson County and undoubtedly many other places across the country.
That material and more are readily available at online libraries. It is through one of those libraries that “The GayBCs” appeared on the kids’ iPads.
Also worth noting, if you are a third grader, you are required to spend 30 minutes nightly on your iPad.
So what really has been going on?
The obvious part is the so-called grooming, a term the left is always complaining about, but is real to a great extent. These teachers and educators are using their classrooms and materials, including the ubiquitous iPad, to encourage, even prepare, children to be LGBTQ+, whether they are or aren’t, or, more accurately, might someday become that way or not.
Why, it’s as if there’s an aura of a penumbra that: Yes, Democrats Really Do Want to Groom Your Children.

WHEN THERE’S AN ACTUAL BRANDON: When ‘Let’s go, Brandon’ is a positive chant.
If you’ve heard of Loudoun County in the past year, you can thank Hamilton, Virginia, resident Brandon Michon.
Rarely mentioned in the national media, other than in surveys of the wealthiest counties in the country, the liberal-leaning Washington, D.C., exurb became the symbol for parents fighting against COVID-19 mandates, school closures, and critical race theory last year.
“I was the lightning rod for that,” said Michon.
It was during the early evening of Jan. 26, 2021, when Michon and his family, dressed in winter coats, stepped in front of the Loudoun County School Board in Ashburn, Virginia, to ask that schools be opened. Duke, then 8 and in third grade, said: “I don’t want to do any more distance learning anymore. I wish I could learn from my teacher without my 2-year-old brother trying to sit with me or touch my keyboard.”
He opened with, “You should all be fired from your day jobs because if your employers knew that you were more inefficient than the DMV, you would be replaced in a heartbeat.”
As he got louder, Michon shouted, “You’re a bunch of cowards and hiding behind our children as an excuse for keeping schools closed.” He ended with four words that have been hashtagged ever since, “Raise the friggin’ bar.”
One man with courage makes a majority.
