Critical Race Theory, AKA, "I Hate America"! 

That is a fundamental truth, and anyone who doesn't think there's something seriously wrong with Tim Walz, is equally flawed, and there's no hope for them.    

Have you ever heard of Brian Lozenski? You probably would have heard a lot about him if communist Tim Walz, governor of Minnesota, had been elected vice president. Lozenski is an associate professor of urban and multicultural education at Macalester College in Saint Paul, Minnesota. (See where this is going...)

Walz’s Education Department (probably should be called indoctrination department) selected Lozenski to help write the statewide implementation framework for Minnesota’s new “ethnic studies” standards. Supposedly, Lozenski is the foremost authority and considered the “leader” of Walz’s ethnic studies initiative, which could really be called, “Reasons to Hate America.”

This is what Lozenski said in a 2021 video: 

“The first tenet of critical race theory is that the United States as constructed is irreversibly racist. So if the nation-state as constructed is irreversibly racist, then it must be done with. It must be overthrown. And so we [proponents of critical race theory] can’t be like, “Oh no, critical race theory is just about telling our stories, and diversity.” It’s not about that. It’s about overthrow. It’s insurgent. And we need to be, I think, more honest with that. … You can’t be a critical race theorist and be pro-U.S.”

When the video was discovered in September, it was immediately removed from YouTube, most likely by Lozenski so his words would not hurt the communist-leaning Walz. This is another reason why children should be homeschooled or sent to private schools that share your values. It never seems to occur to these misfits if they tried to pull this kind of stuff in the leftist countries they seem to think are paradisaic, they'd either be imprisoned or executed. 

Administration Transition

Trump's transition will not be like his first administration that had a chaotic transition because Donald Trump relied on many Deep Staters, this time he has been preparing for months. The rapid announcements keep coming and that means the left/Deep State keeps attacking the nominees. They are going after Pete Hegseth as a “Fox News host” but fail to recall these seven appointees who came from the media:

1. Jay Carney—Barack Obama’s press secretary came from Time magazine. 
2. Linda Douglass—Worked in Obama’s communications office having come from ABC News. 
3. Douglas Frantz—Went to the State Department from his Washington Post job.
4. Symone Sanders—Worked in the Biden administration after leaving her MSNBC anchor job.
5. Jill Zuckman—Joined the Obama Transportation Department after leaving the Chicago Tribune. 
6. Stephen Barr—Joined the Obama administration after leaving the Washington Post. 
7. Tony Snow—Became George W. Bush’s press secretary after leaving Fox News. 

As far as Pete Hegseth, in addition to his outstanding educational credentials, there is his outstanding military service (active duty and Minnesota National Guard) that includes tours in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantanamo Bay, AND two Bronze Stars. Plus, his experience as executive director of two worthy veteran organizations: Concerned Vets For America and Vets for Freedom. 

Will Blue States Turn Purple?

I get a lot of e-mail responses from readers and this one from Natalie O. from Arizona was particularly noteworthy.  

My cuz I are close but on different political wavelengths. To keep the peace we stopped talking politics. After the election I texted her that I was sorry she was sad. Of course I was happy but didn’t say that. She texted back that she voted for Trump & I nearly fell off my chair. She said there were a lot of reasons she didn’t like him & listed them & just didn’t like the cost of everything & open borders. But she said the final push was that Democrats killed Peanut the squirrel. Natalie, that is interesting and thank you for sharing. Killing the pet squirrel showed government overreach. 

You never know what will be the straw that breaks the camels back, yet this was so small, and yet converted a confirmed leftist.  I think this is a subtle demonstration showing there's a massive buildup of dissatisfaction in "blue" states.  With the collapse of the far left media, and a RNC that's going to make voter fraud a major issue, there might be a lot more purple states, even California.
