Liberal Single Mother Baffled by Church Attendance; Knows Jesus Loves Her Best

One thing about the 21st century: we’re discovering all sorts of brand new things, aren’t we? Here’s some new “The Science” that we’ve “learned” in this quarter of a century:

-Men can become women

-Women can become men

-Sex isn’t actually real anyway; it’s all just words and feelings

-Selling babies and deliberately depriving them of their natural mother and father is good, is a blessing, and is “humanitarian.” We call it “surrogacy.”

-Morbid obesity is incredibly arousing, and more men prefer morbidly obese women to those with normal body weights. 

-There was never any such thing as a lazy, shiftless, or lunatic bum; these were all just “unhoused” people who never did anything wrong, it’s just that the house fairy didn’t leave them a cottage under their pillow.

-Unnatural hair colors like green, blue, and pastel pink are far more attractive to potential mates than naturally occurring colors

You may notice something odd about this new “Science.” It’s the opposite of the obvious truth. The social mores and values of the 21st century—and all of these are leftist ideas—are just forms of reversal. Call black white, call light dark, call bitter sweet. Truth reversals are the favorite tool of people with narcissistic and manipulative personalities. They’re also very attractive to gullible people who mean well, but who are in thrall to manipulators. 

Reversing the truth, acting selfishly and with contempt for others simply because they don’t agree with you, has become normalized behavior in the 21st century West. It’s most acute among liberal women. The video below is typical of the genre: 30-something  single woman, liberal, with an attitude and put-on voice-creak to match. 

Check out this lovely lady instructing viewers on how much Jesus loves her because she had children out of wedlock. That’s right. In her own words, “Jesus loves me so much that I bought a three-bedroom house as a single mother of three.” It’s unclear whether by “Jesus” she meant “child support from my ex plus welfare.”

She’s upset and baffled by why American Christians attend church. We do apologize for the grating quality of the voice you’re going to have to listen to:

Let’s see what other social media citizens had to say:

Is America Ready to Wake Up to the Reality of Normalized Anti-White Racism?

America has been living in a fantasy land since the passage of the Civil Rights Act in 1964. The legislation finally made into reality the promise of equality before the law, regardless of race. Yet with every year that has passed since, black Americans have become more lawless, more aggressive, and much more likely to claim that they are victims of racism. 

Oh, and what racism they claim to suffer from. It’s not just being directed to “colored” fountains. It’s not just being harassed individually. No, the claim is that “systemic racism” is to blame for everything that goes wrong in the lives of black Americans. The fact that 70 percent of black children are born out of wedlock in fatherless homes? Systemic racism. The fact that most of these single-mother families are sitting around on welfare and food stamps instead of getting married or working? Systemic racism. 

Now, in the 21st century, racism against whites by black people is so everyday common that almost no one remarks on it. At the same time, greater numbers of black people defy the law, societal norms, and the police themselves, then scream “discrimination” when anyone pulls them up short and reminds them that they, too, must obey the rules. 

Check out these two examples. In the first one, a number of young black men surround a Boston cop and scream at him that he’s “a bitch.”

In the next one, a black woman who is somewhere she shouldn’t refuses to make eye contact with the cops (too busy on her phone) and then just states she isn’t going to obey them. 

But we may be at a turning point after the knife killing of white 17-year-old Austin Metcalf by black 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony. Not only did the knife killing appear to be unprovoked by anything reasonable, but the admitted killer’s family is holding fundraisers and press conferences. They insult the character of the dead boy’s father (he’s dead because their baby boy, Karmelo, killed him) and accuse the dead kid, his father, and society, of “racism.” It’s an ugly spectacle. 

But there are signs of hope. Below is a four-minute video of a conference where speaker Myron Gaines, a fitness instructor, chastises the black people in the audience for laughing at the anger of a young white attendee who spoke. The young man said with emotion, “How long are we going to let white people be murdered in the streets before we do something?”

The “audience of color” thought that was absurd and funny enough to laugh at. Speaker Myron Gaines was having none of it, asking them why they were laughing at the white man’s rage when they know they would be burning down cities if the races were reversed. 

Let’s see what X/Twitter onlookers had to say. Some, of course, just want to laugh and dismiss:

Others want to misdirect so the topic of black violence is never discussed:

Others want to see more truth-talking.

Dem Pols Fly to El Salvador to “Bring Home” El Salvadoran Illegally in the U.S.

Who knew? The Central American nation of El Salvador is 2025’s hottest vacation destination for Democrat politicians from the U.S. Why, it has everything. Sunny beaches, a good-looking president, and Kilmar Abrego Garcia. 

Who? How can you not know? Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a household name! Sadly, it’s true. Somehow, in year 2025, an illegal alien who broke into the United States, got slapped with domestic violence charges (that his wife later dropped), has a membership in the international criminal gang MS-13, and who was once stopped by a cop under suspicion of human trafficking, has become a name everyone on the left knows. 

And everyone on the political left, it seems, wants to be Garcia’s new best friend. The El Salvadoran national, whom the U.S. media insists on deceptively labeling a “Maryland man” or “Maryland father,” jumped the border in 2011. He met a woman and had children. Then cops stopped him in 2019 hanging around with known members of the MS-13 gang. 

Keep up, but remember that he’s an El Salvadoran man. He’s an illegal alien in the U.S. Notice how many years he was allowed to live here with no papers, absolutely unmolested by U.S. authorities. In the meantime, he roughed his wife up so much that she filed for a protective order, then, as so many battered women do, decided to stop pressing charges.

Then this year, Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Garcia and got him ready for deportation, finally. The left went ballistic, claiming that he “could not be deported,” relying on a prior court order that said he could not be deported to El Salvador, his own country, because he might be hurt by gangs there. But he still was under a deportation order, which Democrats and the media pretend they don’t know. 

That alleged Salvadoran gang (different from MS-13) seems to no longer exist, making him deportable again. But in their zeal to stop an illegal alien gang member from being sent back home, leftists raced to court to get an order stopping his deportation. The Trump administration deported him anyway. 

Now we have the amazing spectacle of multiple elected Democrats flying to El Salvador to do a wellness check on a criminal who isn’t a U.S. citizen. First it was Maryland’s Chris Van Hollen, snapped in photos having a lovely coffee and bottled water tete a tete in El Salvador. 

Now Oregon Democrat Rep. Maxine Dexter is on her way to Central America, proudly proclaiming that she will not leave El Salvador until Kilmar Garcia is returned to the United States. You know, the U.S. in which he is not a citizen, and from which he has been deported. 

Tere’s no way to make any sense of it. Let’s see what X/Twitter users had to say about Dexter’s selfless humanitarian act.

Shoplifter Earns Felony Battery Charge After Telling Cops She Didn’t Have to Obey

Spare the rod and spoil the child. This old truism has had a bad rap for decades as most people think it can only be read to mean that children must be beaten with sticks. That’s not the only way to read the saying, and no one needs to clobber their offspring with switches in order to recognize the kernel of truth: shielding misbehaving people from consequences encourages more bad behavior.

That could not be more evident than it is in 2025. Forty years ago young people mocked their parents’ generation for getting upset over the increasing profanity and vulgarity in pop music. It became a pastime for Gen X kids (guilty) to  call their moms shrieking hysterical harpies when they didn’t want us buying and playing record albums with explicit lyrics. The woman behind the successful campaign to slap parental warning labels on record albums, Tipper Gore, became a hated name among anyone under 30 in the 1980s. 

Flippant young people love to claim their parents are just fuddy duddies predicting dire consequences that will never come to pass. Except they do come to pass, and the kids only learn that when they become old fuddy duddies too. Look around. There isn’t a “please” or “thank you” in sight during formerly polite business transactions. People run red lights routinely, pedestrians stroll onto dark streets at night with earbuds in without bothering to check whether a truck is bearing down on them. It’s never only about “silly old manners.”

Those who live in urban, or even suburban, areas, are now used to seeing “shoppers” steal clothes, laundry soap, and hair grease right out in the open. And why shouldn’t they? Liberal states like California essentially decriminalized shoplifting under the law until they woke up and put the law back the way it was supposed to be. But the damage has already been done. Since the 1960s we’ve treated every rule, law, or boundary as some sort of personal oppression against our freedom, and multiple generations of Americans now believe they’re morally and legally entitled to behave as badly as they want. 

It shows up in encounters like this from a police bodycam. In the video shown on this X/Twitter posting, cops are trying to eject “Jasmine” from a clothing store. Apparently the store staff didn’t like her behavior, and told her to leave. Jasmine refused, because ain’t nobody gonna tell her what to do.

Check it out. 

The articulate and respectful Jasmine tells the police they can, like, tell her to leave and  stuff, “but I’m gonna be back in here regardless.” Ain’t nobody goan’ tell Jasmine what to do. 

The cops arrested her. Jasmine decided to get grabby and try to slap the cops, so she earned herself a felony charge on top of the shoplifting.

Maryland Senator Flies to El Salvador to Soothe Poor Scared Gangbanger

As you know, in 2025 America it’s normal to care infinitely about the wellbeing of illegal aliens who jump our border, but to care nothing at all about the safety of Americans. Democrat politicians have been falling over themselves for years bellyaching about “due process” for third-worlders who respect our country so little that they sneak in and then complain about the quality of the free food America gives them. 

We’ve watched while leftist politicians go to bat for the scum of the third world while our wives, daughters, and sisters are raped and murdered by these “guests.” But the ante has been upped by Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen, who is allegedly so moved by the plight of Kilmar Abrego Garcia that Van Hollen flew to El Salvador to visit him. Abrego Garcia is the Salvadoran national–he was illegally in the U.S.–deported last week to El Salvador amid a flurry of conflicting court rulings and interpretations. 

Two immigration courts in the past found that the man was a member of the international criminal gang MS13 and was eligible to be deported. At some point, another court ruled at the time that he could not be deported to his home country of El Salvador for fear that the gang he belonged to there would hurt him. That gang, which is different from MS13, no longer exists in El Salvador. 

Abrego Garcia ended up back in El Salvador after the federal government deported him, which set off a round of absolute hysteria among Democrat politicians about “due process.” Maryland’s Van Hollen took it farther than anyone by getting on a plane to El Salvador and demanding that the Salvadoran government let him meet with the deportee. After being rebuffed twice, Van Hollen ended up sitting down with Abrego Garcia somewhere, though it is unclear how this happened, and where the deportee is being incarcerated. 

See how concerned and paternal Van Hollen looks? The Maryland Senator made sure to tell the U.S. press that Abrego Garcia was “traumatized.”

It gets even more unbelievable. Abrego Garcia’s wife, Jennifer, who is tearfully pleading for his return and calling him a loving husband and father, filed court papers against her husband several years ago alleging domestic violence against him. It’s not clear why she is now so supportive of his return. For a time in 2021, Jennifer Garcia had a protective order against her husband. 

All of that appears to be news to Senator Chris Van Hollen, who could not even identify Jennifer at a press conference. Watch him call out her name and look around in bewilderment as the woman realizes he doesn’t even know who she is. 

Oh yes, X/Twitter users had some commentary:

And take a look at this picture of  Van Hollen and Abrego Garcia in El Salvador, with humorous captions added. Does this look like a prison to you? 

President Donald Trump is not letting this go. He reminded the American public on social media that Abrego Garcia is not a “Maryland father” as the media insists, but a foreign national gangbanger:

Naturally, liberals feel very tenderly toward the violent and non-American:

There are none so blind as those who have decided that they will not see:

Mother of Teen Killer Thinks Her Family Are the Real Victims

Imagine two parties:

1. A father whose son was stabbed in the heart and killed by another teen
2. The mother of the teen who killed the father’s son

Which one is the victim? Think that sounds easy? Not in 2025. If you’re the mother of confessed knife-killer Karmelo Anthony, you believe that you and your family are the real victims. Karla Hayes, mother of Karmelo Anthony, called a press conference and berated the public for “discriminating” against her family and for being angry that her son killed another boy. 

Only blacks in America would have the nerve. Oh yes, race is very much at issue. Karmelo Anthony is black, and Austin Metcalf, the teen he killed, was white. In this insane racial hothouse called America 2025, public sympathy is on the side of the confessed killer’s family. The Anthonys have already taken in a half-million dollars in online donations, and the media reports that they’ve begun spending it on a Cadillac Escalade and a new McMansion to live in. 

The family press conference started off with an even more astonishing display of chutzpah, with a man named Dominique Alexander speaking for Karmelo Anthony’s family. It turns out that Jeff Metcalf, father of the boy slain by Karmelo Anthony, showed up at the Anthony family press conference. Dominiqe Alexander, a self-described clergyman, chastised Jeff Metcalf for showing up, saying Metcalf was “disrespectful” to Metcalf’s dead son. 

During her tirade, Karla Hayes, mother of the accused Karmelo Anthony, shouted that she had raised her son correctly in a two-parent family “with structure.” It is not clear, then, why she has a different surname than her knife-wielding son, or just what kind of “structure”  she was referring to. 

The family’s been having a red letter week, as their very good boy, who didn’t do nothin’ wrong and acted in self-defense, they say, got his bail reduced to a nice affordable $250,000. Karmelo Anthony is resting comfortably under home arrest until his trial. 

You can watch Karla Hayes put on crocodile tears and yell at the world in this video from Collin Rugg’s X account:

Maryland Senator Flies to El Salvador to Beg for Criminal To Bring Back to US

If the past 10 years hasn’t been enough to convince people that Democrat politicians have literally lost their minds and their souls, then the latest from Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen may do the trick. At issue is a man the media insists on describing only as a “Maryland man.” He is not merely, or even really, a “Maryland man.”

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is an El Salvador citizen who has been in the US illegally for years before being deported back to El Salvador by the Trump administration. Why was he deported? Because he was here illegally, but also because two immigration courts agreed with border officials that he was part of the infamous international and violent MS-13 gang. 

Over the past few weeks the Trump administration and the activist federal courts have been tussling over Garcia. Federal courts have tried to stop the Trump administration from deporting foreign aliens, including Garcia. Some claim Garcia was here “legally” although he’s an illegal (no, it can’t be made to make sense), and judge James Boasberg is hopping mad that the executive branch did not obey his probably-extra-legal order to turn planes around in mid-air and bring illegals back to the U.S. 

Whatever the true details of this fine legal wrangling, it boils down to this: The Democrats and the courts are moving heaven and earth to bring back to the U.S. an El Salvadoran man who is in El Salvador. There isn’t any way to look at this and come up with any legal or moral framework that makes sense. 

In comes Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen, whose heart so bleeds for Garcia that he, Van Hollen, got on a plane to El Salvador in hopes of talking the country’s president into releasing Garcia back to the United States. Yes, really. 

You’ve got to hand it to Van Hollen; he has chutzpah. Here he is in front of microphones demanding that El Salvador’s president Naybi Bukele give Garcia, an El Salvador citizen, to him to take back to the U.S.!

El Salvador, in more diplomatic language, told the senator to piss off. 

Let’s see what the American public had to say on X. 

This one’s brutal and funny.

Family of Black Teen Who “Allegedly” Killed White Teen Strikes it Rich with Donations

Conservatives often say that liberals and leftists have no principles, but that’s not true. The prevailing liberal orientation to the world, at least in the U.S., could be called “sympathy for the devil.”

It seems like all of a sudden, the tolerant, loving, compassionate, empathetic left has decided to celebrate murderers right out in the open. Sure, many on the right could argue that the left has always approved of force and violence, but in the past those who did at least felt some social pressure to hide their appetites. Not anymore. Violence-loving lefties will tell you right out on social media that they wished the 2024 would-be assassins had succeeded in killing Donald Trump. They also like to engage in what they accuse conservatives of doing: “victim blaming.” Check out this poll—38 percent of voters said Trump himself was to blame for attempts on his life. Maybe it was that tight dress he was wearing. 

Lefties are equally unashamed to cheer on the rash of violent attacks on Tesla dealerships. The electric car company, owned by billionaire and Trump advisor Elon Musk, has endured dozens of incidents of vandalism and firebombings in the past few months. The arrest of a Colorado man (who wears blue lipstick) for an arson attack on a Tesla dealership in New Mexico, and vandalism at the state’s Republican party headquarters, is only the latest in a string of reports of lefties gone feral. 

It is no surprise, then, to see the outpouring of financial support for confessed killer Anthony Karmelo. The black teen has been charged with murder for plunging a knife into the heart of 17-year-old white high schooler Austin Metcalf on April 2 in Frisco, Texas. According to media reports, Metcalf told Karmelo to move out of his seat, and Karmelo reacted by knifing him. Metcalf died on the scene as his killer asked arresting police if he could claim “self-defense.”

It looks like just about any old excuse will get this guy off the hook if his recent successes are any indication. On April 14 a judge reduced his bail from $1 million to $250,000, so Karmelo walked out free except for home arrest. 

But the winning keeps on coming: as of April 15, a fundraiser for the knife killer set up by his family has netted $433,000, surpassing the amount donated to the family of the slain boy. The family says they’re going to buy a brand-new house with security because they feel “threatened.”

Let’s see what the public has to say. Naturally, poor little Karmelo has some backers. 

But more people reacted with sanity.

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins: Why Did the U.S. Deport an Illegal Gang Member?

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins does not like conservatives, Republicans, or Donald Trump. Note one bit. Collins has difficulty presenting any stories featuring Trump without telegraphing her disdain through irrelevant, needling questions, and sour looks on her face while in the anchor chair. 

The two got a chance to face each other in person during a meeting Trump held in the Oval Office, before the press, with El Salvador’s president Nayib Bukele. Bukele is known for his tough on crime stance; he launched a hard crackdown on drug gangs on other criminals in 2020 which sent the crime rate in his country plummeting. The contrast with the then-Biden administration’s weakness—many would call it encouragement—toward lawlessness could not have been starker. While violent crimes like murders decreased in 2023, that was compared to a surge during 2021 that Democrats would like to attribute to “the pandemic,” but that tracks with the administration’s turning a blind eye to lawlessness like the BLM riots in 2020 that resulted in dozens of deaths and $2 billion in property damage. 

Trump and Bukele have been working together to deal with violent gang members who illegally jump the U.S. border. The deal between the U.S. and El Salvador allows the U.S. to ship these criminals to El Salvador where they’ll go to prison, in exchange for American money. 

What’s got many Americans riled is the news that an illegal alien deported from the U.S. to El Salvador, Abrego Garcia, who a court ruled was improperly deported. The judge ordered the U.S. to “facilitate” Garcia’s return. Countering this, Attorney General Pam Bondi said Garcia is an illegal alien whom immigration courts had already determined was a member of the international MS-13 gang.

That’s what the oval office fight was about. CNN’s Kaitlan Collins asked the president what he was going to do about getting Abrego Garcia out of a Salvadoran prison. Trump advisor Stephen Miller said the U.S. could not tell El Salvador what to do with a non-U.S. citizen in his country’s custody. Miller called the very idea “arrogant,” and dressed down Collins and the U.S. media. 

Prolific X user Collin Rugg has video of the exchange:

Miller reiterated that Garcia was illegally in the U.S., and that he’s a known member of a violent international gang. Collins kept pressing, asking if the administration “was saying” that it wouldn’t ask for Garcia’s return. He noted that a recent Supreme Court decision allowed the U.S. to deport Garcia again, in the future, if El Salvador, “in its sole discretion,” returned the man to the U.S. Spoiler: El Salvador is not going to do that.

Collins seemed to have trouble understanding that the U.S. can’t demand that El Salvador return its own citizen. It is unclear why she and other members of the left would want a Salvadoran gang member back in America. 

The response from X users was pretty unanimous, with most people saying that Collins lost this one badly.

Judge Rules Columbia Protestor Mahmoud Khalil can be Deported

On April 11, a federal judge in Louisiana ruled that Secretary of State Marco Rubio has the authority to deport a Syrian man at the center of pro-Palestinian and anti-Jewish demonstrations and mayhem at New York’s Columbia University. 

Judge Jamee Comans said Mahmoud Khalil, 30, can be deported and that the State Department has the legal authority to expel green card holders (non-citizens) deemed to be agitating against U.S. foreign policy interests. According to the Department of Homeland Security, Khalil never mentioned to the U.S. that he worked in the office of the British embassy in Beirut, Lebanon, that dealt with Syrian issues. DHS said this made Khalil “inadmissible at the time of his adjustment” because he misrepresented himself and his past. 

What riled the U.S. government was Khalil’s involvement with “student” protests against Israel at Columbia University. During these demonstrations, some students and activists denied Jewish students the right to freely move about the campus, threatened them, and took over university buildings by force. 

Judge Comans ruled that Khalil was “deportable” under a law cited by Secretary of State Marco Rubio that allows expulsion of guests in the U.S. who take actions deemed to be antithetical to U.S. foreign policy. 

Advocates for Khalil and pro-Palestinian demonstrators say this is a violation of “free speech,” and that Khalil is being politically persecuted. His lawyer Sabrina Mohamah told media that the decision was “unjust and alarming,” and “a blatant violation of the First Amendment.”

Department of Homeland Security director Kristi Noem countered this view, stating that it was a “privilege” to be given a visa to study in the U.S. and that the country does not have to host guest who support terrorist organizations. “Good riddance,” she said in reaction to the ruling. 

Khalil has been held in custody in a Lousiana prison since March 8 when he was arrested. The court ruling gives him until April 23 to file for relief in the courts, so he’ll be cooling his heels in the U.S. for a bit longer. 

The protests against Israel kicked off at Columbia and other universities after the October 7, 2023 attack on Israel by Hamas terrorists. The militants breached the Israeli border and slaughtered thousands of young people attending an outdoor music festival, raping women and abducting hundreds. Leftist “pro-Palestinian” demonstrators in the U.S. accused Israel of waging “genocide” against Palestinians through its aggressive military response. 

The White House announced the court decision on X/Twitter, using an image of Donald Trump from the day he visited a McDonald’s. The image shows the president waving “goodbye” from a drive through window. 

Predictably, the social media thread drew widely divergent responses. Some users expressed anger at the Trump administration, but most were supportive:

Others were quite happy to see the U.S. get tough:
