Video Shows Moment Environmentalists Storm 18th Hole Moments Before Scottie Scheffler’s Crucial Birdie Putt

/

The final moments of the PGA Travelers Championship were halted by a group of climate change protesters on Sunday.

As World #1 Scottie Scheffler prepared to putt for the victory on the 18th hole at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, CN, crazed attendees from the Extinction Rebellion environmentalist pressure group stormed the green.

Video footage shows the activists lighting smoke grenades and throwing colored powder without due regard to the significance of the moment. Scheffler, who has dominated the PGA Tour so far this season, was about to make a birdie putt before the demonstration took place – a shot he would miss to allow Tom Kim to force a playoff hole.

The activists were quickly tackled to the ground by security and law enforcement officers, with fan-filmed footage showing mass boos and anger from the moment play was disrupted.

Fortunately for Scheffler, he would go on to make par on the playoff hole and clinch his sixth PGA Tour victory in ten starts.

Much like those on the 18th hole, social media users were critical of Extinction Rebellion’s actions with some calling for them to be jailed.

Others praised the tackle on one of the demonstrators by security guards on the scene.

While there was some initial confusion as to whether it may have been a protest by fellow sports’ disrupters Just Stop Oil, one response called for an investigation into how these groups – which often secure high-price tickets for major events – have continued to fund their disruptive activities.

Pilots Urged To Avoid Non-Inclusive Words… And Yes, That Includes “Cockpit”

/

Pilots are being told to avoid non-inclusive language, including the word “cockpit”, under guidance from the Air Line Pilots Association, International (ALPA).

The ALPA, which is the world’s largest pilot union and represents more than 70,000 members, issued a DEI language guide 2021 urging airmen and women to avoid certain phrases in a bid to remove “masculine generalizations”.

“Cockpit” has been deemed non-inclusive as, according to the guidance, “many women have heard a variation of ‘It is called a cockpit for a reason’ by a male pilot”. This is despite the word originating from a 16th century blood sport called cockfighting (fighting between male roosters) before it was later adapted into use by World War One fighter pilots.

Other terms ALPA deems must be avoided include “manpower” (with “people power” preferred) while pilots are also encouraged to avoid using “mother/father”, “husband/wife” and “boyfriend/girlfriend”.

ALPA said in a statement to Fox News that “opening the doors of opportunity to ensure we have a robust supply of qualified aviators” is not a “real threat” to aviation safety.

It’s safe to say that digital passengers questioned the union’s priorities.

Others could only express their disbelief at the news.

Away from aviation, some feared their beloved mojitos and margaritas would soon be subject to a different name.

2024 has not been the best year for aviation. Thankfully, we can all be assured that our air travel is just that little bit safer now that those evil, centuries-old terms have been replaced in the name of DEI…

Clip From Canceled Show “New Amsterdam” Goes Viral After Astonishing Medical Claim – “Your Son’s Tumor Was Caused by Racism”

/

A controversial clip from the television series New Amsterdam has gone viral.

The medical drama which aired on NBC from 2018 to 2023 focuses on a medical director’s attempts to reform one of the United States’ oldest public hospitals. As one might expect from a mainstream TV show, liberal and progressive politics were constantly inserted into the law (likely contributing so its cancelation).

One particular scene features a psychiatrist speaking to a mother whose son, Cephas Fernandez, has been diagnosed with a tumor. The psychiatrist tells the parent that her son had answered some questions which were “designed to measure someone’s level of social resistance”.

“Your son feels threatened on a daily basis, like everything he’s earned can be taken away. He’s disenfranchised,” he tells the mother. “But because his life is seemingly free from all this, because he can’t name it, he’s internalizing it.”

“Name what?” responds the parent.

“Racism… I think your son’s tumor was caused by racism,” the psychiatrist replies, dead serious.

You have to see it to believe it. Prepare to cringe…. or burst out laughing (or both).

Despite being over four years old, the clip caused widespread mockery as it wasn’t by most until today (the show’s ratings were poor enough to get it canceled, mind you).

Another social media user by the name of @bostonwriter speculated what other Woke-induced diseases the show’s teenager may have suffered.

Fortunately, Cephas later makes a recovery, although he has told that he has to “name it” if he wants to treat his tumors caused by racism.

New Amsterdam only ran for five seasons before it was pulled from the airwaves. Perhaps the medical practitioners knew their time was up…

In reality, the show was cancelled because of declining ratings and lower viewership figures. Who could possibly know why?

Six Years On From Greta’s Doomsday Tweet… Yet Climate Warriors Haven’t Learned Their Lesson

Six Years On From Greta’s Doomsday Tweet… Yet Climate Warriors Haven’t Learned Their Lesson

/

It’s been six years since climate activist and former truant Greta Thunberg warned that we were all going to die by 2023.

Spoiler alert: we didn’t.

Comedian Tim Young kindly reminded us of her doom mongering prediction on X (formerly Twitter), providing a screenshot of her since deleted tweet where she warned our impending mortality if we didn’t stop using fossil fuels.

The comedian’s helpful reminder that we all should have been dead a year ago sparked comparisons to former U.S. presidential candidates.

Others, quite rightly, were just glad that we are all still here.

Furthermore, Greta’s deleted tweet sparked memories of previous extinction predictions by climate change worriers.

Quite often, those who express skepticism over the true impact of fossil fuels on climate change are often labeled as conspiracy theorists. Yet, this is despite data from reputable sources such as the International Energy Agency suggesting that while fossil fuels are significant contributors to global carbon emissions, their share of total emissions is decreasing due to increased use of renewable energy sources.  

Perhaps the tenacity of climate activists is what deters many from heeding their warnings. Fossil fuel activists Just Stop Oil sparked fury in the United Kingdom for their damage to Stonehenge; in previous years, the group has blocked road networks and disrupted sporting events.

Granted, these disruptive acts and doomsayer predictions may garner attention, but not all publicity is beneficial. It’s hard to listen to such activists when their ‘predictions’ are seemingly churned out in a repeated, never-ending cycle.

Pro-Palestinian Student Kicked Out Of Family Home For Slacktivist Protest

Wars by their own nature are divisive.

They involve (at least) two sides who do not agree on something so significant that the best course of action is to kill those who hold a different outlook.

Of course, that definition is extremely simplistic. No two wars are alike, and there are often multiple contributing factors including the nature of governments, disagreements on territory, access to resources or even religious beliefs.

Conflicts end when there is a winner, or an agreement is reached between the warring parties.

They do not end because a faceless profile has put a Palestinian flag in their social media bio.

Israel’s war with Hamas has caused divisions far beyond the Middle East. Even in the United States, different family members hold different views on the conflict.

Pro-Palestinian leftists have been vocal in their slacktivist efforts. Flags have appeared in profiles, and McDonald’s has been boycotted (although the impact in the U.S. is somewhat limited).

Yet, unless they hop on a plane to Gaza in swathes and pick up a weapon, their meaningless gestures won’t make a blind bit of difference.

A student who uses the twitter handle “Donut_tweetz” shared a video of her own protest that proved that exact point. The footage came from her graduation, where she held up a bedsheet which is barely legible. She also muted the video, most likely as the audience in attendance disagreed with her anti-Israel view with either laughter or booes (or both).

Alas, she was ridiculed by thousands on social media.

And how did her parents react to her virtue signalling? Well…

I guess if her goal was to ruin her own life for no reason whatsoever, that mission was accomplished.

Buffalo Bills Announce Support For Gay-Only Football League

/

There’s good news for those who like watching sport based solely on athletes’ sexuality – as the National Gay Flag Football League (NGFFL) has expanded to Buffalo. 

The NGFFL was launched in 2002, and currently comprises of more than 200 teams in 25 leagues across the United States and Canada.

Each year, every team competes for the “Gay Bowl”, with this year’s edition set to be held in Austin, TX, from October 31 – November 3.

NGFFL Commissioner Joel Horton said he was “thrilled to bring inclusive flag football to Buffalo with the support of the Buffalo Bills”, even though teams are capped at a 20% heterosexual limit.

The New York Giants, New England Patriots, New York Jets, Miami Dolphins, Arizona Cardinals, Chicago Bears, Washington Commanders, and the Seattle Seahawks have also previously expressed support for the league.

“We are excited to join the NFL and other Clubs across the league in their support of the NGFFL,” said Buffalo Bills Vice President of Community Impact, Michelle Roberts. “Through our sponsorship, we are looking forward to expanding the impact of the NGFFL in our community.”

Bills fans were not unanimous in their support for the announcement on Instagram.

Others noted the Bills’ appalling record in the NFL, and questioned whether a franchise which has failed to win in all four of its Super Bowl appearances had its priorities in order.

Another user questioned the inclusivity of the NGFFL.

What’s your view? Do we need a football league based on sexuality? Let us know in the comments below.

Video Shows Moment FBI Agents Visit Whistleblower Who Warned Of “Illegal” Child Gender Reassignment Clinic

Video Shows Moment FBI Agents Visit Whistleblower Who Warned Of “Illegal” Child Gender Reassignment Clinic

Video footage pertaining to show the moment two FBI agents intimidated a Texas nurse has gone viral.

The footage relates to a major healthcare scandal in which nurse Vanessa Sivadge alleged that the Texas Children’s Hospital illegally billed Medicaid for transgender procedures. Medicaid is not permitted to be used on so-called “gender reaffirming” treatment.

Savidge, who worked extensively with the hospital’s transgender patients, realised she was unwittingly participating in a secret “gender-affirming” clinic despite previous public promises by the hospital to close it down.

A City Journal report in May 2023 detailed how an anonymous whistleblower – now known to be Savidge – provided documents on the secret continuation of the program, which included providing young children with implantable puberty blockers.

Christopher F. Rufo, who broke the scandal, shared a detailed thread on X about the story including a video from shortly after its original publication in May last year.

In the clip (at the beginning of this article), two FBI agents can be seen asking for Savidge at what appears to be her home.

“I’m sure you’re aware of some of the things that have been going on at your work lately,” says one of the agents in the clip, before asking whether they could “sit down for a minute and let me do my song and dance” when the footage ends.

Savidge later claimed that she was intimidated by the officers due to her sharing of the allegations.

Many responded in outrage at the allegations in response to the video.

On the other hand, some questioned as to why Savidge let the officers in.

Death Penalty For Child Rapists Sparks Fury Among Transgender Activists

Death Penalty For Child Rapists Sparks Fury Among Transgender Activists

/

A Tennessee bill to allow the death penalty for child rapists has been criticized by LGBTQ+ activists.

Republican Gov. Bill Lee approved the legislation in May without issuing a statement which is set to go into effect on July 1, 2024. It follows a similar move by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis last year.

Under the new Tennessee law, state prosecutors can pursue the death penalty when an adult is convicted of aggravated rape against a child. Other punishments include life imprisonment without parole, or imprisonment for life.

After signing the bill, Gov. Lee told reporters that such crimes are “some of the most heinous that there are”.

Following the wider publication of the bill’s existence, some LGBTQ+ activists amazingly took to social media platform X to vent their dismay.

One social media user who claimed the law was “cool in theory but bad in practice” due to the unevidenced targeting of racial minorities and gay people later locked their account after coming under heavy fire from those astounded at their comments.

Nevertheless, “@stinkypissbitch” was not alone in their bizarre take.

Fortunately, most users saw sense in the legislation, noting that it would indeed affect LGBTQ+ people who committed heinous crimes as much as it would heterosexuals.

…while another presented a graph highlighting the statistics of why some demographics may be more impacted than others.

What’s your view? Should all states follow suit, or has Tennessee Gov. Lee been too extreme in passing the bill? Let us know in the comments below.

Town Council Criticized For Prioritizing Pride Flag Over Thin Blue Line After Death Of Police Officer

Town Council Criticized For Prioritizing Pride Flag Over Thin Blue Line After Death Of Police Officer

/

A town council in Connecticut has come under heavy scrutiny after refusing to fly the thin blue line flag just weeks after the death of a local police officer.

Trooper First Class Aaron Pelletier was killed in the line of duty earlier this month, prompting renewed calls to fly the flag in Wethersfield which began following the death of Deputy Robert “Bobby” Garten in September 2023.

However, despite local outrage, councilmembers have stuck by the decision to not fly the flag, instead opting to fly the pride flag at Wethersfield Town Council instead.

On Monday, June 3rd, councilmembers voted 5-3 not to fly the thin blue line flag on the day of Trooper First Class Pelletier’s funeral, with Democratic Deputy Mayor Matthew Forest arguing that it was “emblematic of white nationalist, neo-Nazi and alt-right movements in the United States”.

A follow-up debate exactly two weeks later saw tensions on all sides, with family members of the victims expressing their discontent at the council’s decision. Some members of the public, however, expressed support for the council given that flying the thin blue line flag would have breached its recently updated policy to require a 30-day notice period before any flag can be flown.  

Footage from the meeting was shared on the social media platform X (formally known as Twitter).

Many social media users were dismayed at the insensitivity of flying a pride flag over one which symbolizes support for police.

Others recognized the divisions by the move and offered alternative solutions.

What’s your view? Did Wethersfield Town Council make the correct decision, or should an exception have been made? Let us know in the comments below.

Democratic Candidate and Former Biden Appointee Charged With Faking Own Hate Mail

/

A county commissioner candidate and former Joe Biden appointee has been charged with faking his own racist hate mail.

Democratic candidate Taral Patel, who is standing for commissioner in Fort Bend County, TX, was charged on Wednesday, June 12, after being arrested on allegations of online impersonation.

The investigation into Patel’s affairs was commissioned by his opponent and incumbent Andy Meyers after a lengthy Facebook post in which the 30-year-old Patel claimed he was the victim of a race-based smear campaign. The post featured a collage of racist messages he had allegedly received over the course of his campaign.

“These hateful images (a small sample attached here) are from a place of deep and misguided fear – incited by people like former President Donald Trump, and today’s extremist Republican Party fear that immigrants are ‘taking their jobs’ and setting out to hurt our own communities.” Patel wrote.

Investigators from the Fort Bend District Attorney’s Office subpoenaed Facebook and Google for account information about the user profile. Their search led them back to Patel.

Patel was arrested on June 12 on a felony charge for online impersonation in the third degree, as well as the Class A misdemeanor charge for misrepresentation of identity. He posted a $22,500 bond the following morning with a court appearance scheduled for Monday, July 22.

Social media users expressed their outrage when reacting to the news.

Others compared to actor Jussie Smollett’s hate crime hoax from 2019.

The county commissioner election is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, November 5.
