The Left’s Viral Narcissism: Tantrums Over Misgendering

Welcome to Woke of the Weak‚ where I’ll update you about the most woke‚ progressive‚ insane‚ and crazy clips and stories that the left thinks are tolerable and well‚ point out why exactly they’re nuts.  This week we took a look at a wide variety of takes from the loony left. We started out by watching a clip in which a man complained that he was called a man while trying to get his name changed at the bank. He somehow couldn’t fathom why he was called a man when he had pink hair‚ makeup and a dress on. Watch for yourself to see if you can tell his biological gender.  Another dude said he fired his plumber after the guy called him a “sir” instead of a “ma’am." That he/she is a professional narcissist‚ if you ask me! Next up was a video of a member of the United States Army who doubles as a drag queen. I hope our foreign threats don’t get a look at that! Otherwise‚ we’ll be screwed.  We also saw a teacher who uses “they/them” pronouns. She (I think) has the students call her Mx. rather than Mrs. or Mr.‚ to which one three-year-old kept asking her if she was “mixed up.” The irony was uncanny! Speaking of irony‚ a “girl” got called out for having an Adam's apple and another dude claimed that Jesus was transgender because he only got chromosomes from his mother‚ Mary.  Finally‚ we heard one dude complain about getting blood in his panties. He thought/wished it was his period but it was just some blood from “tucking” too aggressively. His friend‚ however‚ didn’t tuck aggressively enough and talked about his “balls” sticking out of his panties in another video.    You really can’t make this crap up.  Related: The Left’s Crying Over Whiteness‚ Transgender Periods &; Bare Butts Follow us on Twitter/X: X users school Biden on misleading claims of 'lower inflation' since the leftist media won't. pic.twitter.com/I9aXJBKAFr — MRCTV (@mrctv) December 5‚ 2023

Dems Melt Down After Riley Gaines Calls Rep. Lee a ‘Misogynist’

On today’s episode of “you can dish it out but you can’t take it‚ NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines absolutely owned a lib while testifying before Congress during the “Transgender Athletes in School Sports” hearing Tuesday‚ when she and Democratic Rep. Summer Lee (Pa.) got into a heated argument in which Gaines called Lee a “misogynist.” The hearing was held to debate changes to Title IX that would outlaw bans against biological males who identify as female competing on women's sports teams at tax-funded institutions.  Title IX‚ as it's currently written‚ protects the safety and fairness of female sports. Men have an obvious physical advantage over women in most sports and it isn’t fair for them to be competing against women. Not to mention‚ allowing biological men to enter vulnerable and closed spaces like locker rooms or bathrooms where girls are present poses a safety risk to girls. Of course‚ leftists - including those in Congress - are more than happy to throw actual women under the bus in favor of metal deluded men. Related: Oops: AOC Accidentally Admits Boys and Girls Are Different Which is why all hell broke loose after Lee insisted that Gaines is engaged in “transphobic bigotry” after Gaines‚ who was once forced to compete against a biological male herself‚ stated her position that boys have no place in girls' sports - to which Gaines bluntly responded‚ "Ranking member Lee‚ if my testimony makes me transphobic then I believe your opening monologue makes you a misogynist." Greg Price from State Freedom Caucus posted a video of the altercation on his X account‚ and boy was it spicy! 🚨BREAKING: After Democrat @RepSummerLee (D-PA) said @Riley_Gaines_ engages in "transphobic bigotry" by opposing boys in girls sports‚ Riley fired back by saying "if my testimony makes me transphobic then you are a misogynist." Lee then moved to have her words taken down. pic.twitter.com/MdZRc4RgUM — Greg Price (@greg_price11) December 5‚ 2023 When it was the Heritage Foundation's Senior Legal Fellow Sarah Perry's time to speak‚ Lee interrupted to tell Chairwoman Rep. Lisa McClain (Mich.) that she wanted Gaines’ “words taken down.” While members and staff hustled and bustled around her‚ Lee added‚ “Madam Chair‚ she’s engaging in personalities.” “Could I just ask‚ how it’s fair to be called transphobic —” Gaines stated before Lee interjected‚ “I never called you anything.” After a few moments‚ Lee was unsuccessful in getting Gaines' words taken down‚ and she withdrew her point of order. So now‚ wait a minute - Gaines can’t call you a misogynist‚ but you can call her a transphobe? Isn’t calling someone a transphobe “engaging in personalities‚” Ms. Lee? Not to mention‚ encouraging men to parade around as women and compete in women's sports is textbook misogyny.  We need more people like Gaines to stand up for what’s true and what’s right. Men do not belong in women's sports. Follow us on Twitter/X: Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) refers to her OWN state as deplorable because they pass conservative legislation. pic.twitter.com/g2DXZYRLn7 — MRCTV (@mrctv) December 6‚ 2023

‘Enough’: Rep. Carl Pens Letter to Google CEO over Pro-Life Censorship

A Republican lawmaker is calling for an investigation into Google after its infamous maps service‚ Google Maps‚ "incorrectly" removed a pregnancy center.  In a fiery op-ed for Yellowhammer‚ Rep. Jerry Carl (R-AL) said he issued a letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai demanding the tech giant release similar instances of inexplicable censorship. “Woke corporations have been getting away with silencing conservative voices and values for a long time‚ and I have had enough‚” Carl declared. Last week‚ Google Maps could not locate D.C.’s Capitol Hill Crisis Pregnancy Center until The Daily Signal pointed it out to the tech giant. When MRC Free Speech America reached out to Google‚ the company claimed that the listing “was incorrectly removed and we have since reinstated it.” Rep. Carl‚ however‚ is pushing to hold Google accountable.   In his op-ed‚ Carl emphasized Google’s alleged mistake is not something to simply let slide. “Although the clinic is now back on the map‚ I sent a letter to Mr. Pichai‚ the CEO of Google‚ to express my concerns as to why the listing was removed in the first place and if there are other similar situations that have not yet been brought to light‚” he wrote. Carl further noted the seriousness of the situation. “Pro-life clinics should be listed on Google Maps without being removed under any circumstance‚ as women’s health and protecting the lives of the unborn is incredibly important to millions of Americans.” The Daily Signal reported that before last Monday‚ users who searched for D.C.’s Capitol Hill Crisis Pregnancy Center were met with results for a Maryland pro-life pregnancy center and Planned Parenthood’s Carol Whitehill Moses Center. Rep. Carl was not impressed.  “Having the pregnancy center’s location removed from Google Maps is a threat to women’s and children’s health‚” he wrote. “It’s even worse to re-direct someone to the location of a clinic performing abortions.” Rep. Carl also pointed out that this is not the first incident of Google censoring pro-life content. “Google has been accused of numerous incidents of suppressing or censoring pro-life and conservative viewpoints and content in the past‚ and this is yet another example of Google pushing its own pro-abortion agenda and promoting the view of left-leaning organizations‚” Carl stated.   MRC Free Speech America has repeatedly reported on Google’s consistent pro-choice bias. From LifeSite News and EWTN Global Catholic programming to censoring the nonprofit Created Equal‚ the Big Tech company has repeatedly suppressed pro-life content. In Sept. 2021‚ Google even banned Live Action’s ads for abortion pill reversal medication which has saved thousands of children’s lives‚ according to Live Action founder Lila Rose. In January‚ MRC Free Speech America researchers also found that Google made Planned Parenthood’s website the first result in a search for the word “pregnancy” on the eve of the 50th annual national March for Life in Washington‚ D.C.. Google’s AI chatbot Bard has similarly shown pro-choice bias.  Conservatives are under attack. Contact Google at 650-253-0000 and demand it be held to account to mirror the First Amendment while providing transparency‚ and equal footing for conservatives. If you have been censored‚ contact us using CensorTrack’s contact form‚ and help us hold Big Tech accountable.

Bill Burr to Jimmy Kimmel: 'You Idiot Liberals' Made Trump a 'Martyr'

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel got more than he bargained for when he welcomed actor and comedian Bill Burr on to his Tuesday show. Before Kimmel could ask what it is like to play a talking turtle‚ Burr would explain to Kimmel that “you idiot liberals” have made Donald Trump a “martyr.” Burr explained‚ “Like‚ you want to see a great case thing on‚ like‚ narcissism‚ liberals are so [bleep] stupid the way that they handle Trump.”     After Kimmel asked‚ “what do you mean?” Burr continued‚ “You should shut up. He's a narcissist. Neutral energy. You know what I think it was‚ I think he was a one-hit wonder‚ right‚ he wrote The Twist and that was it. He was on the casino circuit and you idiot liberals let wrote him Twist again when you indicted him and now he's a martyr and he's coming back‚ Jimmy.” More seriously‚ Burr was not thrilled with the likely 2024 candidates: He’s coming back; it's going to be great for comedy. He's coming back. I can't believe‚ like‚ these are honestly going to be our two choices because I really try to with each thing be‚ like‚ figure out who I'm going-- but I mean it's got to be-- I want somebody in their 40s. Somebody’s that's going to have to live with their decisions. I don't want like‚ you know—with any luck‚ with any luck‚ they'll both die of natural causes before the election and maybe you can get somebody that still has something to live for.  Perhaps the awkward silence from the audience when Burr went after liberals is why Kimmel stays away from having politically diverse guests.   Here is a transcript for the December 5-taped show: ABC Jimmy Kimmel Live! 12/6/2023 12:01 AM ET BILL BURR: Like‚ you want to see a great case thing on‚ like‚ narcissism‚ liberals are so [bleep] stupid the way that they handle Trump.  JIMMY KIMMEL: What do you mean?  BURR: You should shut up. He's a narcissist. Neutral energy.  KIMMEL: Yeah. You think he'd go away if –  BURR: You know what I think it was‚ I think he was a one-hit wonder‚ right‚ he wrote The Twist and that was it. He was on the casino circuit and you idiot liberals let wrote him Twist again when you indicted him— KIMMEL: Yeah. BURR: -- and now he's a martyr and he's coming back‚ Jimmy.  KIMMEL: The peppermint twist is back. BURR: He’s coming back; it's going to be great for comedy. He's coming back. I can't believe‚ like‚ these are honestly going to be our two choices because I really try to with each thing be‚ like‚ figure out who I'm going-- but I mean it's got to be-- I want somebody in their 40s. Somebody’s that's going to have to live with their decisions. I don't want like‚ you know—with any luck‚ with any luck‚ they'll both die of natural causes before the election and maybe you can get somebody that still has something to live for.

Morning Joe Blasts Jayapal‚ Others Refusing To Unequivocally Condemn Hamas Use Of Rape

As our Tim Graham noted‚ on CNN's State of the Union on Sunday‚ far-left Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) dodged and weaved and refused to unequivocally condemn Hamas' use of rape of Israeli women as a tool of war. The height of Jayapal's despicable evasion came when she said: "I think that it happens in war situations. Terrorist organizations like Hamas obviously are using these as tools. However‚ I think we have to be balanced about bringing in the outrages against Palestinians." Yeah‚ "it happens." So much for feminist solidarity from this supposed feminist. So much for even basic human decency. Today's Morning Joe raked Jayapal‚ and some other progressives and international organizations‚ over the coals for their contemptible evasions. The condemnation was unanimous across the panel.  Joe Scarborough spoke somewhat elliptically of "some progressives on Capitol Hill‚" and "the Congresswoman."  But Washington Post correspondent and MSNBC contributor Jackie Alemany named names: "It is extremely confounding‚ especially to see‚ as you just noted‚ these progressive lawmakers over the weekend‚ just Pramila Jayapal twist themselves into knots to avoid speaking unequivocally on the issue‚ condemning something that is very clearly -- should be considered a war crime." Scarborough described some of the unspeakable horrors to which Hamas had subjected its rape victims. Whereas Alemany and Sam Stein were perplexed at the reluctance of Jayapal and others to unequivocally condemn Hamas' horrors‚ Willie Geist offered a plausible explanation‚ "It probably amounts to a lot of people who think Israel is bad‚ generally‚ and wrong here. And so everything that happens in this war‚ they have to lump themselves on the other side." Geist also pointedly summed up the moral depravity of the equivactors: "My God‚ if you can't say what happened on October 7th is inhumane and grotesque and wrong and bad‚ there's just something wrong with you." Faced with a wave of criticism for her statements during the Bash interview‚ Jayapal subsequently issued a new statement‚ "unequivocally" condemning Hamas's use of rape and sexual violence.  Too little too late. In addition to denying the depths of Hamas' evil‚ Jayapal is also an . . . election denier. In 2017‚ she objected to awarding Trump Georgia's 17 Electoral College votes to Donald Trump‚ despite him having carried the state by 200‚000 votes.  Joe Biden‚ in his role as Vice President and President of the Senate‚ shut Jayapal down‚ declaring‚ "It is over." Note: There was a moment of unintentional comic relief during the segment. In midst of the horror of the descriptions of the abuse‚ as you'll see at 4:15 into the clip‚ Mika's phone goes off with an incoming message alert that sounds like a clown nose horn.

GOP senator corners FBI director with perfect question about Hunter Biden laptop scandal: 'You're the FBI!'

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) asked FBI Director Christopher Wray an important question on Tuesday about the Hunter Biden laptop scandal.Just weeks before the 2020 election‚ the New York Post broke the laptop story. But social media companies‚ the media‚ and intelligence professionals attempted to bury the story by claiming it was Russian "disinformation." The problem‚ of course‚ is the laptop was real‚ and the FBI knew it was real but declined to clarify what those with power had claimed about it.At a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing‚ Kennedy pressed Wray on the FBI's decision not to stand for the truth at the time."We had a controversy during the election about Mr. Hunter Biden's laptop. At that time‚ you had 80 agents interfacing with social media‚ doing whatever they were doing. The FBI had the Hunter Biden laptop — got it on December 9‚ 2019 — the New York Post story‚ which a lot of the social media companies‚ at the suggestion of government‚ took down. The story came out on 10/14/2020‚" Kennedy explained."Why didn't the FBI just say‚ 'Hey‚ the laptop's real'? Why didn't you just tell everybody the laptop's real?" he asked. — (@) Wray offered Kennedy two excuses. First‚ he said the FBI could not speak about an ongoing investigation. Second‚ he claimed no one at the FBI directed social media companies to suppress the story."But others were in government‚" Kennedy interjected."Well‚ again‚ I can’t speak to others in government‚" Wray responded. "That's part of the point I was trying to make —""Yes‚ but you're the FBI!" Kennedy protested. "You are not part of the White House or part of Homeland Security. You’re not supposed to be political. You see all of this controversy going on. Why didn't the FBI say‚ ‘Time out‚ folks. We're not getting in the middle of this‚ but the laptop's real?'"Wray answered that the FBI must be "very careful" about what the agency says "especially in the middle of an election season because that’s precisely some of the problems that led to my predecessor’s negative findings from the inspector general."The FBI director‚ however‚ failed to explain how choosing to tell the truth about the laptop would have divulged details about the Hunter Biden investigation or how it would have interfered in the election. After all‚ a core value of the FBI is candor‚ and lacking it will get you fired from the bureau. That the FBI chose to sit on their hands and not correct a known lie suggests complicity in the dissemination of that lie. And at the very least‚ it appears clear that FBI leadership violated their own value of candor.

Bill Maher tells Roseanne Barr her Tweet was racist &; her reaction is PERFECT

Roseanne Barr is standing her ground. The actress and comedian was “canceled” along with her show‚ “Roseanne‚” in 2018 after posting what some called a racist tweet about former Obama aide Valerie Jarrett. Barr referred to her as the offspring of the “Muslim Brotherhood &; Planet of the Apes.” Years later‚ she’s not letting the cancellation of the number-one sitcom in America force her to her knees. In an interview with Bill Maher‚ she made sure everyone was aware of this. “You tweeted something that I don’t even know if you thought it was racist; it certainly was‚” Maher said to Barr. “It was not‚” Barr responded‚ clearly annoyed. “I thought the b**** was white.” "She looks just like the picture‚” Barr added. Maher then let her know that she wasn’t going to get herself “out of this by reiterating that.” “Everybody in power’s got to be made fun of‚” she argued. “If you can’t take a joke‚ f*** you‚ you fascist. That’s how I feel‚ Bill.” “And you know what? I don’t give a f*** what color your ass is‚ if you ain’t doing right for your own people or anybody’s people in this country‚ where people are sleeping in the streets‚” she said.“I don’t give a f*** about your feelings.” Want more from Dave Rubin?To enjoy more honest conversations‚ free speech‚ and big ideas with Dave Rubin‚ subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America‚ defend the Constitution‚ and live the American dream.

Gavin Newsom falls apart when questioned on abortion

If you’re going to debate Gavin Newsom on something‚ you might want to choose the topic of abortion — because the governor of California isn’t capable of winning. In his debate with Ron DeSantis on Fox News‚ Newsom was asked about abortion. “You have allocated in your budget $265 million for abortion last year alone. My question‚ very specific‚ do you support any restrictions at all on abortion‚ especially in months seven‚ eight‚ and nine?” Sean Hannity asked Newsom. “I’m going to answer that question‚ but let’s talk about the issue of abortion‚” Newsom answered‚ clearly trying to dodge the question. He then immediately attacked DeSantis‚ which wasn’t his brightest idea. “I think this is important and it bears repeating‚” he began. “Ron DeSantis has signed the most extreme anti-abortion bills in America. He signed a bill banning any exceptions for rape and incest‚ and then he said it didn’t go far enough and decided to sign a six-week ban before women even know they’re pregnant.” “Even Donald Trump said it was too extreme‚” he added‚ before telling Hannity that he does in fact support late-term abortion. “It should be up to the mother‚ and her doctor‚ and her conscience.” Like many Americans‚ Pat Gray is disgusted with what he heard. “Right up to birth‚” Gray says sadly. “You talk about extreme — can you get too extreme when you’re talking about the life of a human baby? Can you be too extreme on that? I don’t know. Either you believe it’s life or you don’t. Either you believe that you're taking a life when you abort the child or you don’t. Which is it?” Want more from Pat Gray?To enjoy more of Pat's biting analysis and signature wit as he restores common sense to a senseless world‚ subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America‚ defend the Constitution‚ and live the American dream.

'I is for Intifada': Oakland teachers bombard students with anti-Israeli propaganda‚ promote Palestinian 'resistance'

'I is for Intifada': Oakland teachers bombard students with anti-Israeli propaganda‚ promote Palestinian 'resistance'

Teachers began bombarding children Wednesday with leftist propaganda denigrating Israel and promoting the Palestinian "intifada" as part of a "teach-in" in Oakland‚ California. The local teachers' union‚ the Oakland Education Association‚ endorsed the teach-in despite Oakland Unified School District superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammell warning that the curriculum‚ including the anti-Semitic materials therein‚ was "unsanctioned‚" reported KTVU-TV. Johnson-Trammell stressed in a Dec. 4 letter to parents‚ "The District does not authorize this action. Furthermore I want to make clear that the instructional materials developed and shared by the teach-in organizers are not aligned with the materials and guidance previously provided by our Chief Academic Officer‚ Dr. Sondra Aguilera." The superintendent acknowledged that the materials "circulated and promoted as factual" by the leftist teachers were both "harmful and divisive." The Oakland Education Association for Palestine group has provided teachers with propaganda materials targeting children from junior kindergarten through high school. One among the recommended presentations details the "Goals of Colonialism‚" noting the process by which Israel and the United States allegedly steal land‚ destroy local cultures‚ dominate‚ then normalize their behavior. Another presentation‚ painting Zionism as genocidal‚ poses the question to children: "Since Jews experienced centuries of violence and ethnic cleansing‚ why are Jews in Israel doing the same thing to Palestinians today?" An art activity originally crafted for American schoolchildren by the activist group Teaching While Muslim has as its stated goal an understanding and celebration of "Palestinian culture and resistance throughout history and in the present‚ with a focus on Palestinian children's resistance." The activity for students in pre-K through second grade is to "connect histories of settler colonialism from Palestine to the United States." As part of this activity‚ children are to be given this prompt: "75 years ago‚ a lot of decision makers around the world decided to take away Palestinian land to make a country called Israel. Israel would be a country where rules were mostly fair for Jewish people with White skin. Do you know about any unfair rules where we live?" A coloring book for children included among the curricular materials states‚ "Children like me keep having their homes taken by the Zionist bullies. They are always scaring them and arresting them." "I will never forget that I am Palestinian or give up on my right to return‚" says a cartoon in the coloring book‚ designed by the Palestinian Feminist Collective. "I will always try to find a way to help other Palestinians and Free Palestine." Exercises in the book underscore Palestinians "right" to return to land belonging to the Jewish state. The New York Times noted that another book recommended by the OEA for Palestine is entitled‚ "P is for Palestine‚" which informs young children‚ "I is for Intifada‚ Intifada is Arabic for rising up for what is right‚ if you are a kid or a grown-up!" In addition to being asked to draw "Zionist leaders of Israel‚" students are also prompted to make signs that say‚ "Palestine will be free‚" "Free Palestine‚" and "Let Gaza live." Teachers were also provided with hundreds of Palestinian "resistance" posters to share with their students as well as a link to a Turkish state media video denouncing Israel for "apartheid." KTVU reported that the unauthorized curriculum omits any mention of the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attacks on Israel‚ which amounted to the biggest attack on Jews since the Holocaust. Despite the materials all advancing an anti-Israeli‚ pro-Palestinian agenda‚ the OEA for Palestine stated atop its collection of curricular resources‚ "Our work is not to win our students over to a particular side nor indoctrinate them with our own political perspective on Israel-Palestine." Local Council on American-Islamic Relations president Zahara Billoo told KPIX-TV‚ "This is important‚ this is necessary to teach kids about current events." Billoo called "Zionist synagogues" and various Jewish groups "enemies" in 2021‚ reported the Jerusalem Post. "Oppose the polite Zionists‚" said Billoo. "They are not your friends." Billoo indicated the news of the teach-in left her feeling "excited." Nate Landry‚ 40‚ a parent in the district who has spoken on behalf of the organizers of the teach-in‚ claimed the Palestinian propaganda served as a "corrective" to the approved curriculum‚ reported the New York Times. According to Landry‚ at least 100 teachers were expected to participate. Jacob Fowler‚ a teacher at Lincoln Elementary‚ appears to be one of them‚ having called on other teachers to participate in a Nov. 26 YouTube video. Fowler claimed that teachers are "fortunate enough to play a small role in helping shape the next generation" and should wield their power accordingly. After the first series of classes Wednesday‚ Judy Greenspan‚ a teacher in the district and teach-in organizer‚ indicated that "interest is growing by the hour‚" reported the San Francisco Chronicle. Shira Avoth‚ an Israeli-American and mother of a seventh-grader in the district‚ indicated her son would "show up and represent himself" in defiance of what she deemed "misinformation." Avoth noted that this is hardly the first time teachers in the district have confronted her son and other children with anti-Israeli propaganda in recent weeks. According to the mother‚ her son's English teacher exhibited a post with the caption‚ "From the river to the sea‚ Palestine will be free‚" signaling a desire for Israel's ruin. Rabbi Dovid Labkowski of Chabad Oakland told KPIX‚ "It's devastating to Oakland families‚ especially Jewish families." "Education is about teaching right from wrong‚ morals and values. When you decide you don't like something happening in the world and you decide to put together a curriculum that's going to teach about hating other people‚ that's what this is about‚ this is about hating Jews‚" said Labkowski. Josh Diamant‚ a teacher in the district‚ told KTVU‚ "My biggest concern is that we're raising a generation of anti-Semites." KTVU indicated it remains unclear if teachers participating in the teach-in will face any repercussions. As of 2022‚ there were over 34‚000 students in the district and 1‚861 teachers. According to the Public School Review‚ public schools in the district have an average math proficiency score of 21% and a reading proficiency score of 56%.
