Daniel Greenfield Unleashed

Biden’s Star Trek Diversity Ambassador Getting ‘Pale’ ‘Males’ Out of Diplomacy - “It has always been a struggle for minorities and women to reach our full potential. I can’t imagine why the rest of the world thinks we’re a joke. Ambassador Gina Abercrombie-Winstanley, a 30-year diplomat, is the Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer for the Department of State. What exactly is she an ambassador to? She left the foreign service during the Trump administration because she was disillusioned with its direction. “It has always been a struggle for minorities and women to reach our full potential in the white-male-dominated world of diplomacy,” she wrote of her decision in The New York Times. “The State Department has long struggled to reflect ‘looking like America’ among our senior officer corps, and under this president the refusal to utilize the talent, experience and passion of so many people dedicated to serving our nation was heartbreaking.” As long as it’s not the talent of the pale male people,............. 

NYC Opens Its Own Refugee Resettlement Operation - “Please don’t ask me which cities because I don’t need you running to the cities and stopping them”  In We’re All Coyotes Now, I described some of New York City’s convoluted efforts to take the migrants being sent and send them somewhere else, like Canada. ............Overloaded and low on options, NYC is building its own refugee resettlement machine...........

No, Americans Don’t Like Wokeness - Some polls are so bad that they deserve their own special category of fake news.  Some polls are so bad that they deserve their own special category of fake news. Sometimes that’s because the polls are carefully statistically manipulated. Others are just set up to fail by asking stupid questions so they can be spun into headlines like this. A GOP war on ‘woke’? Most Americans view the term as a positive, USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll finds. There have been a number of previous polls that asked how people felt about ‘wokeness’ and often a lot of respondents didn’t know what it was and couldn’t define it. So USA Today/Ipsos decided to ask people which definition fit better and whether it was a compliment or not to produce these worthless results. The USA Today poll didn’t ask whether people personally approved of wokeness.............

My Take - As I've often said, I stopped believing in polls over 25 years ago, even if they prove my own views.  Polls are statistics, and there's a reason statists is called the arcane science, including epidemiology.  It's Game Boy science.  You can program whatever conclusion you like. 

 The ADL is Under Siege From its Own Anti-Israel Employees -Either the ADL will get right with the Jewish community or with the Left. It can't do both.   As bad as ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt is, the organization under him has lost its Jewish mission and become a clearinghouse for assorted woke causes. I’ve never been a fan of the ADL, but in the Greenblatt era, it’s just another leftist group, and as I’ve documented in the past, it’s staffed up with actual radicals. That was recently brought home when ‘Jewish Currents’, a site derived from a Communist magazine that cheered the rape and murder of Jews during the Hebron Massacre, published audio from a Zoom chat in which ADL employees attacked Greenblatt for being critical of BDS and the anti-Israel movement...........
