YOU SAY YOU WANT A REVOLUTION II: Instapunditeers of a certain age will recall Kate Millett and her “Sexual Politics,” which was a kind of scripture for so-called “second-wave feminism” in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

But far fewer folks of any age know about Millet and her 11 women friends who met regularly in Greenwich Village to plot the downfall of the American family. Carrie Gress knows a great deal about them, including this chant with which the proper mood was set for each gathering:

“Why are we here today?” the chairwoman asked.

“To make revolution,” they answered.

“What kind of revolution?” she replied.

“The Cultural Revolution,” they chanted.

“And how do we make Cultural Revolution?” she demanded.

“By destroying the American family!” they answered.

“How do we destroy the family?” she came back.

“By destroying the American patriarch,” they cried exuberantly.

“And how do we destroy the American patriarch?” she probed.

“By taking away his power!”

“How do we do that?”

“By destroying monogamy!” they shouted.

“How can we destroy monogamy?”

“By promoting promiscuity, eroticism, prostitution, abortion, and homosexuality!” they resounded.

Gress emphasizes the Marxist roots of Millet’s dirty dozen and points to the incredible success they have had in revolutionizing American culture, media and politics. And isn’t it interesting how the Marxist dialectical analytical structure is so easily adaptable to any group with a gripe, real or imagined.

UPDATE (FROM GLENN): Flashback: Kate Millett’s Tedious Madness.

Also: Kate Millett’s sister, Mallory, on just how crazy her sister was. “At one point, in 1973, I found myself alone with her in an apartment in Berkeley, California where she did not allow me to sleep for five days as she raged at the world and menaced me physically.”

I’m beginning to think that most lefty movements are just about broken people trying to manipulate the rest of us so they can feel good about their broken selves.

YOU SAY YOU WANT A REVOLUTION: Well, Critical Race Theorists don’t typically come right out and say they want to destroy America, but, as J. Allen Cartwright makes clear this morning on The Federalist, violence is the inevitable outcome when CRT is carried to its logical ends.

And no wonder when all you hear is that “you live in an oppressive society, with built-in systems of oppression that prevent you from altering that society, and have no way to be successful within the system while staying true to yourself. Your only alternative is to destroy that system,” Cartwright observes.

IS JESUS’ RESURRECTION HISTORICALLY DOCUMENTED? Scott Powell of the Discovery Institute — the author of “Rediscovering America,” which is doing quite well on Amazon these days — makes a sterling case in the affirmative.

Check it out on HillFaith this Easter morning, along with an offer of a free copy of “More Than A Carpenter,” Josh and Sean McDowell’s evidentiary classic that has been read by millions of people around the world. And have a happy Easter, He is risen!

SUSPENDING STUDENT LOAN REPAYMENTS BENEFITS RICH: Wait a minute, aren’t federally-backed student loans mainly meant to help middle and lower class students?

So why then does Biden’s suspension of repayments benefit mainly high-income professionals like doctors and lawyers? Hans Bader points to a searing critique of the suspension written by Matt Yglesias, who has never been mistaken for a right-winger and who recently wrote this:

“As Marc Goldwein of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget shows, medical doctors have received $48,500 in relief versus $29,500 for people with law degrees, $4,500 for people with bachelor’s degrees, and a measly $2,000 for those who didn’t finish their degree and are objectively most in need of help.”

Hmmmm. As Bader details, suspending student loan repayments, again, is just one of multiple Biden policies that drive inflation in the U.S. to levels twice those now seen in Europe. And Biden was warned by economists on the Left and Right that such would be the result.

BIDEN’S DOJ CAVES ON ANTIFA VIOLENCE: There are few details of the settlement terms, but the quotes from both sides make it quite clear that the Left turned the charges against the violent Lafayette Square protestors into an opportunity to aid the thugs.

GOOGLE CENSORS STRIKE AGAIN: The TechnoMetric Institute of Policy and Politics (TIPP) accurately predicted the outcome of the past five presidential elections. That kind of accuracy is why Issues & Insights (I&I) partners with TIPP on regular polling of American public opinion.

But according to the censors at Google AdSense, it doesn’t matter how accurate a poll is, what counts is whether the results advance the Left’s agenda, as represented by the Biden administration. Here’s how it came down, according to I&I:

“We reported on the results of our monthly I&I/TIPP Poll, which found that nearly two-thirds of registered voters thought decisions about COVID restrictions were driven by politics, not science. Majorities in just about every demographic, political, and ideological group felt this way.

“Nevertheless, Google’s AdSense network stripped its ads from this article because it contains what Google claims is ‘dangerous or derogatory content’ and that we must ‘fix it’ for Google to restore those ads.”

Sadly, the Google AdSense censors refused to even consider reviewing their decision, much less explaining how in this or any other universe it can be “dangerous or derogatory” to report accurately the results of a survey conducted by a pollster with a sterling record for reliability and precision.

Somewhere John D. Rockefeller and the rest of the Robber Barons are spinning in their graves, absolutely consumed with envy for Google AdSense.

EARMARKS ARE BACK AS CONGRESS FALLS OFF THE WAGON: They banned earmarks a decade ago — thanks largely to “Dr. No” — Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) — but Federal Spending Addiction is in the water in Washington, D.C. and Congress is back at the pork barrel.

IS FAITH POSSIBLE IN A SCIENCE LAB: As a matter of fact, it is, according to Physics Professor John Bloom, who also explains on HillFaith why he decided to get a second PhD in Near Middle Eastern Studies.

YOU SAY YOU WANT FASTER PHARMA: This new DNA Nanotechnology-based approach can speed things up alright, like a million times faster. This from Phys.org is absolutely fascinating.

HOLD ON THERE: Did Trump “Incite” a riot on January 6 or did he “Premeditate” it before January 6? Tristan Justice wants to know. Me, too.

AND SPEAKING OF GREAT ENTERTAINMENT: Come Palm Sunday night, “The Chosen” folks launch a free, live-streamed week-long “Global Watch Party” leading up to Easter. Eight days, 16 episodes, two each evening.

DOLLYWOOD, NOT DISNEYLAND: Rather than giving your time and money to the Woke Loons in Orlando, asks Joy Pullman in The Federalist, why not head over to Tennessee where Dollywood offers so much of what Disney intentionally threw away after Walt left the stage?

“Even setting aside their recently revealed support for destroying human happiness through sexual chaos, Disney’s products push a lifestyle that doesn’t reflect my goals for family life. I don’t want my kids taught to be whiny brats whose biggest lesson to learn is that all authority figures are dumb or evil. That’s a main message of almost every major Disney property, and it’s very bad for kids,” writes Pullman.

AND YOU THOUGHT HE AND HUNTER ONLY HELP CHINA: In what is among the most  thoughtless Biden initiatives, a new Iran deal is near to being signed. Guess who will be cashing in BIG TIME even before the ink is dry – Washington Free Beacon’s Adam Kredo has the list of Russian firms.

MIGHT WANT TO CALL AHEAD: If you are planning to visit your Democratic senator or representative, that is. The Washington Free Beacon found eight senators and a couple of dozen representatives, all Democrats, whose state and district offices are still closed “due to the Pandemic.”

SENATE CAFETERIA WORKERS JOBS LOST AS DEMS PANDEMIC: Barring something unexpected, come tomorrow, at least 80 Senate cafeteria workers will be out of a job, thanks to Washington Democrats insistence on wringing every last drop of Pandemic regulation out of the COVID-19 crisis, according to the Washington Free Beacon’s Joseph Simonson. 

The rest of America has returned to a state closely approximating normal, but Capitol Hill, which is controlled by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer still bans the public and all non-credentialed media from entering the premises.

Half or more of congressional staffers rarely show up in their members’ offices to work, preferring instead the comforts of home and telecommuting. The result is much less revenue for the cafeterias in the six big congressional office buildings.

WANT A GUARANTEED ANNUAL INCOME? Just move to Palm Springs, California, where the city council just voted unanimously to create a Universal Basic Income (UBI) program.

Hans Bader points out, however, that there is a catch – you must be either “non-binary” or transgender. But don’t worry, it won’t be long before eligibility begins to be expanded because it’s a government program.

BIDEN JUST GETTING STARTED ON BORDER FLOOD: Leaked document from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) talks about “Broadscale Release Mechanisms” to deal with the expected surge of immigrants expected when Title 42 ends.

HOW CHRISTIANITY COULD HAVE BEEN STILLBORN: What if Jesus’ enemies hid his dead body, so they could roll the rotting corpse down Jerusalem’s Main Street as soon as the disciples began claiming the resurrection? HillFaith Studies looks at why the fact that didn’t happen is immensely important today (and it’s not just so we would have an Easter holiday on the calendar!).

BOMBSHELL? Just the News says Durham investigation has turned up a text message that makes clear Michael Sussman wasn’t leveling with the FBI about his clients when he shared the Steele dossier with the agency.

“The existence of the text message between Sussmann and then-FBI General Counsel James Baker was revealed in a court filing late Monday night by Durham’s team. Prosecutors said they intend to show Sussmann gave a false story to the FBI but then told the truth about working on behalf of the Clinton campaign when he later testified to Congress,” JTN’s John Solomon reports.

TOO CLEVER TREVOR PROJECT: President Joe Biden’s handlers are pushing the trans-gender agenda based in part on a LGBT group’s study that was funded by two makers of drugs used in the transition process, according to The Washington Free Beacon’s Chuck Ross. Didn’t we read somewhere along the way something about conflicts-of-interest and transparency about funders?

THOUGHTS ON LEWIS’ TRILEMMA: Easter is around the corner and that always makes me think of C.S. Lewis’ famous “Lord, Liar or Lunatic” trilemma from his classic apologetical work, “Mere Christianity,” in considering the claims of Jesus. Some Tuesday morning thoughts modestly offered on HillFaith. BTW, if you haven’t read Mere Christianity, you owe it to yourself to check it out.

WORD GAMES AT NIH: A spokesman for the agency admits NIH ‘suppressed’ genetic sequencing information on COVID-19 it got from China’s Wuhan lab, but disputes Empower Oversight’s ‘Deleted’ Label. Up is down. Night is day. Black is white. Nothing to see here, move along.

ROMANTICIZING GEN-Z LIVES: Evita Duffy, writing for The Federalist, sees a glimmer of reason to be hopeful in the TikTok/Instagram movement. Not sure I share Duffy’s optimism, but it’s definitely worth considering.

Here’s how she summarizes it: “In short videos, users show themselves ‘romanticizing’ their everyday lives by creating good habits, enjoying simple things, and recognizing beauty in the world around them. In essence, users are sharing a visual representation of how they are transforming their outlook on life.”

NON-FUNGIBLE CNN: The resounding launch flop of CNN+ may be the most predictable failure in media history.

IRS TARGETS POOREST TAXPAYERS FOR AUDITS: Data obtained by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) shows the federal tax agency is five times more likely to audit the lowest income bracket earners ($25K or less) than those in any of the other brackets. The IRS ignored my request for comment (surprise, surprise).

The guy ultimately in charge of the IRS often complains about billionaires who pay no taxes. Maybe that wouldn’t be the case if Biden told the auditors to pay attention to somebody other than the poorest filers.
