Feast of Saint Albert the Great, Doctor of the Church. patron saint of scientists & 13th Century Google


November 15th is the Feast of Saint Albert the Great, a Doctor of the Church, patron saint of scientists, native German Dominican friar, philosopher, scientist, and bishop, considered one of the greatest medieval philosophers and thinkers. Albert became known as Great because of his towering intellectual abilities; he was a respected philosopher, scientist, theologian and teacher, and was well-versed in Arabic culture, including Islam.

 One of his students, who later became a great friend and built upon his Scholastic method, was Saint Thomas Aquinas: Students of philosophy know him as the master of Thomas Aquinas. Albert’s attempt to understand Aristotle’s writings established the climate in which Thomas Aquinas developed his synthesis of Greek wisdom and Christian theology. 


He was known for Teaching of theology, Pioneering scholar of Aristotle, Systematic study of minerals and Discovery of the element arsenic. Fields of study included, Natural scienceAlchemJurisprudenceDiplomacyTheolog and  Natural philosophy


Saint Albert was canonized  December 16, 1931, Vatican City by Pope Pius XI. He is patron saint of Those who cultivate the natural sciences, medical technicians, philosophers, and scientists


He was the eldest son of a powerful and wealthy German lord of military rank. He was educated in the liberal arts. Despite fierce family opposition, he entered the Dominican novitiate.

His boundless interests prompted him to write a compendium of all knowledge: natural science, logic, rhetoric, mathematics, astronomy, ethics, economics, politics, and metaphysics. His explanation of learning took 20 years to complete. “Our intention,” he said, “is to make all the aforesaid parts of knowledge intelligible to the Latins.”

Prayers to Saint Albert the Great


Dear Lord, we thank You and praise You for giving us St. Albert the Great as an example of holiness. We ask You to hear the prayers he brings before Your throne on our behalf.

St. Albert the Great, you are honored as the patron saint of scientists. You devoted a lot of your life to studying science. You even studied the works of Muslim scientists in order to gain more knowledge.

Please bring all of our petitions to God, and we particularly ask today that you pray that God will bless and assist all scientists in their work.

Pray for us, that we may do all we can to glorify God in our work each day. Pray that we may always offer to God all that we do.

And we especially ask  your intercession for our necessities, tribulations and sufferings.

St. Albert the Great, pray for us!

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.






Forget the 2024 Education Vote or Gender Vote- It's the Entitlement Vote


The results of the 2024 presidential election shows the  political divide, with the exception of abortion is not about ideology or gender.  After all, the gender gap is the education gap.  The education gap is about choice. For Men is a my brain, my wallet, my choice. It's about the free lunch.




The 2024 Kamala Harris campaign, with the exception of abortion, was based on platitudes, like not going back, celebrity endorsements, name-calling: racists, misogynist, dictator, ignorant, uneducated and so on.  Despite warnings of a colossal gender gap, Women were more evenly split than in 2020, with an 8 percent lead for Harris compared to a 15 percent lead for Biden among women voters. 
The 2024 presidential election results show that the 'uneducated' and 'ignorant' like the other ad hominem attacks were just that. What it all boils to is free stuff.




If you paid attention to media coverage leading up to November 5th
the results of the 2024 presidential were unexpected, if not downright shocking.  The DNC admited as much, after all, the New York Times/mainstream media were projecting Kamala Harris was going to win: Yet the Kamala Harris campaign is $20 million in debt. Lindy Li, a member of the DNC Finance Committee, said she and others were misled. Pollster Luntz told CNN’s MJ Lee that the president holds “a lot of blame” for her defeat and a number of Democrats have slammed Biden for his decision to seek reelection last year, declaring that he “hung on too long” before abandoning his presidential bid in July. A Harris aide has also pointed to a moment during the vice president’s interview on “The View” last month, when she told hosts that she couldn’t think of something she could’ve done differently from Biden over the past four years, Reuters reported. But Occam’s Razor suggests the NYT/MSM ‘experts’ played a big part on the failed campaign by misleading its subscribers and advertisers – a sort of red journalism.






The results showed every race, color, creed, and gender repudiated Kamala Harris’ failed platitudes-based campaign strategy which the NYT/MSM not only endorsed but promoted. 



The Indian Country sided with Trump: As well it should:  Progressive policies, Tribal Leaders & corrupt politicians have failed Native Americas & Alaska Natives.



Meanwhile, the New York Times led the mainstream media cheering squad promoting the sizzle campaign, while surrogates used social media as a boom box to expand on the strategy like announcing a daily celebrity endorsement and post misinformation. 

The so- called education vote in the 2024 presidential election also helps  illustrate the inverse relationship between 'education’ and common sense/wisdom - it's not education, but Indoctrination.

Perhaps more important, the results also show the lowest youth support for Democrats in a century and the often mentioned gap is not ideological but transactional.


Kamala Harris wins the No VoterID required vote.


Disraeli and President John F. Kennedy would argue America's future looms bright.0



In his message to Congress on February, 1963, President John F. Kennedy said: " To the Congress of the United States:

"The youth of a nation", said Disraeli -  Britain's first, and so far only, Jewish Prime Minister -
"are the trustees of posterity". The future promise of any nation can be directly measured by the present prospects of its youth. This Nation facing increasingly complex economic, social and international challenges--is increasingly dependent on the opportunities, capabilities and vitality of those who are soon to bear its chief responsibilities. Such attributes as energy, a readiness to question, imagination and creativity are all attributes of youth that are also essential to our total national character. To the extent that the Nation is called upon to promote and protect the interests of our younger citizens, it is an investment certain to bring a high return, not only in basic human values but in social and economic terms. A few basic statistics will indicate the nature and proportion of our need to make this investment" - American youth decided to take matters in their own hands.



The Black vote remained impervious to the most expensive presidential campaign, apparently ignoring history and the impact progressive policies have on Black families - focused on Entitlement 

There was significant speculation over the Democrats losing the Black vote. But overall, the number of Black voters choosing Trump remained similar to NBC’s 2020 exit poll: increasing by 1 point to 13 percent. What is most apparent is the increased gap of 14 percent between Black men and women. Out of all demographic groups, Black women were Harris’s strongest supporters (91 percent), second only to Black voters aged 65+.


The overall so-called  gender divide was smaller than in 2020, and below predicted levels. Among Black and Latino groups in particular, however, the gap was substantial, possibly due to the 'education gap:' 2024 Demographics. Gender gap all: 11. White - 8. Black 14. Latino 18

The So-Called Education Vote



Gender gap in college completion by race and ethnicit

Axios reports that acoording to 'experts' a growing partisan split between Latino men and women is being driven partly by gaps in education. Latinos overall have made broad gains in obtaining college degrees during the past two decades, but women have significantly surpassed men, according to the UCLA Latino Data Hub.According to Pew Research Center. 27% of Latinas ages 25-29 are now likely to have a college degree, compared with 20% of Latino men, and college-educated voters tend to lean Democratic, as do Latino men and Latinas.

According to Pew Research, White, Black, Hispanic and Asian women between the ages of 25 and 34 are all more likely than their male counterparts to have a bachelor’s degree. 




The gap has increased to 10 points today (52% of White women vs. 42% of White men).

Similarly, in 1995, young Black women and men were about equally likely to have a bachelor’s degree (14% vs. 16%). Today, Black women are 12 points more likely than Black men to have one (38% of Black women vs. 26% of Black men).

Asian women and men are making comparable gains over the last few decades. In 1995, 42% of young Asian women and men had a bachelor’s degree. Today, 77% of young Asian women have one, as do 71% of young Asian 

For Men it's My brain, my choice 

A 2021 Pew Research Center survey asked Americans without a bachelor’s degree why they chose not to seek one. Men said they just didn’t chose to get one. Women said they wanted more degrees but needed financial help.

Given that across the board, women are more 'educated' than man, why is the ACLU objects to the gender gap: 
"Today, gender bias continues to create huge barriers for many women. Ongoing struggles include ensuring equal economic opportunities, educational equity, and an end to gender-based violence."

Stanford University, a vocal proponent of gender equality, it's surgical team is practically all female 


But it's not about gender equity in STEM, but about enculturation. Different studies show that south east Asian women are more likely to go for STEM:  Some attribute it to education system: All students, regardless of gender, are required to study science. In the West, mostly due to the emphasis on choice, women choose not to study science

The college majors that pay the most right after college  are STEM-based. Except for a BS In Race Hustling -  Race Hustling is the highest paid degree: The University of Michigan has 163 DEI officers. Ohio State & U of Virginia have 94. Georgia Tech has 41, but only 13 history teachers. The Highest-paid diversity and inclusion employees rake in substantially more than the average full-time professor! While the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill offers Racially Exclusive-Programs and Scholarships.

Woke Massachusetts school district  pulls advanced math for being too White and Asian, and people are enraged

Kansas State University (KSU) was hit with a civil rights complaint for a scholarship program that discriminates based on race, designed for African American, American Indian, Asian American, and Latinx American heritage.

Florida State University professor abruptly left his $190K job after faking data to make racism seem more common & having six research papers retracted. Florida university fires professor Eric Steward  over dubious racial bias studies, damage to school may be ‘catastrophic’

Even as the University Of Minnesota  PhD's were forced to retract an article they wrote about "structural racism in the Journal Of Health Services Research - The authors,  UM employees are focused on racial equity: Stuart Grande,  senior Lecturer, Janette Dill,  an associate professor, and Tongtan Chantarat,  a research scientist. The retraction is because its claims were "inaccurate, misleading, or false," according to a note on the withdrawn article. 

Not to be undone,  Target's diversity Chief Kiera Fernandez said that it’s the role of white women to call out transgressions, and continued to single out a white employee and said that because of her race her voice carries more weight and she has a responsibility. She runs Targets Racial Equity Action and Change. Her task force focuses on engaging with black customers and hiring more black employees. Target is also shifting to more black owned suppliers and ending contracts with white owned companies. She was hired internally from the Human Resources department.

Sherri Ann Charleston Harvard chief DEI officer accused of 40 counts of plagiarism, including lifting from her own husband: report - It's the law: "Where you find one, you are bound to find many more" - Juran on Quality Assurance

Yet,  A study has shown how Black DEI professionals get the short end of the stick. According to a report from Zippia, 76.1% of chief diversity officer roles are held by white employees while 3.8% are held by Black employees




A degree that's worth less than a Zimbabwe Dollar 

In 2021–22, 2.0 million associate’s degrees were conferred by postsecondary institutions within the United States.

Of the 2.0 million bachelor’s degrees conferred in 2021–22, some 58 percent were concentrated in six fields of study: business (375,400 degrees); health professions and related programs (263,800 degrees); social sciences and history (151,100 degrees); biological and biomedical sciences (131,500 degrees); psychology (129,600 degrees); and engineering (123,000 degrees


In 2021-2022, area, ethnic, culture, & gender studies was the 30th most popular major nationwide with 15,615 degrees awarded.

All These degrees and no jobs.  All these jobs and no takers

Yet Bernie Sanders and Democrats continue to do the same thing over and over again: Sanders' Triple Idiocy: Minimum Wage, Hairbrained College Push, Cancel Student Debt.

It's not the Gender Gap, it's not Racism, it's Divergent Thinking


In the age of artificial intelligence we are surrounded by The Great Gatsby Curve: Rachel Kushner’s piece in the New York Times titled I Kept Failing to Learn French attributes the Great Gatsby Curve of polyglots to luck. Not hard work. As in ‘the harder I work, the luckier I get.” “Every true polyglot I’ve known either had foreign languages at home or went to fancy schools or otherwise had access to learn them from a young age, They weren’t morally superior, just luckier,” she writes.

Then, speaker after speaker at the Democratic National Convention blamed the Great Gatsby Curve on racism, as exemplified by the Washington Post‘s reporting: “With six words, Michelle Obama rewires America’s conversation on race. Most of us, Michelle Obama said, “will never benefit from the affirmative action of affirmative of generational wealth.”


Pew Research blames the Great Gatsby Curve on a number of factors, including “technological change, globalization, the decline of unions and the eroding value of the minimum wage.”

But the root cause of the Great Gatsby Curve or The “Academic Great Gatsby Curve” in Philosophy is Insanity, not racism, technological change or minimum wage. We call this Insanity or The Great Whacky Curve, Divergent Thinking Defficiency.

The poor state of the education system


The  AntiSemite,  AntiCatholic NYT objects to the use of the Bible in school as it is Anti-ERCT
After all, teaching children twerking is more important than teaching them  about wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety,  fear of the Lord., charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control


According to EdSource many middle school students struggle to read well, study shows. New research reveals that many middle school students hit a “decoding threshold,” the 74 reported. More than 20% of students in fifth through seventh-grade trip over words they don't recognize and can't sound out.



Most High School Students are not academically prepared for college.  Students’ college readiness has reached historic lows, according to several metrics—including the lowest scores in 30 years on the ACT and declining scores on the SAT, the two primary standardized tests used for college admissions




Students at elite colleges can't read books.

The Inverse Relationship between ‘education’ and common sense/wisdom



Paraphrasing Nikita Khrushchev: We will convert America’s infidels, without firing a single firing single shot into Socialists or Communists.

A cursory scan of reports covering the education industrial complex, one would think that getting the “Most Educated State” title, is as valuable as getting the Pulitzer Prize for Fake News. But it’s more like a race to the buttom

According to WalletHub financial writer Adam McCann in a July 2 article titled “Most & Least Educated Cities in America” (2024,) Ann Arbor, Michigan, was No. 1 on WalletHub’s list of most educated metropolitan areas with an overall score of 93.7 out 100.

Meanwhile, Newsweek’s Joe Edwards reports that Washington state has not only seen the biggest influx of college-educated Americans, but Seattle is the least-religious large metro area. In addition. Washington not only has several student loan forgiveness programs that are specific to just the State of Washington, but residents can also qualify for various Federal student loan forgiveness programs. Consistent with the Law of Bilk; Residents who want to bilk the system go where they are welcomed and stay where they are protected and well treated. Soon, passing the bar exam will no longer be a requirement for becoming a lawyer in Washington.

OnFocus‘ David Keech reports that A new study has found that Massachusetts is the most educated state in America, based on the percentage of the population that holds a bachelor’s degree or higher. “Massachusetts is the most educated state in America, with 46.6% of its population aged 25 years and above having at least a bachelor’s degree, “

Educated, Indoctrinated or Degree Holder?

Recently an influential committee of the UC Academic Senate couldn’t agree on how much math to take to qualify to attend a four-year California State University.


But the good news is that Sixteen and 17-year-olds in California will be able to vote for the school board by mail and in person in November. While most California high school seniors don’t meet requirements to apply to UCs or CSUs. Gavin Newsom and lawmakers think students are too stupid to figure out which college courses to take to transfer to the University of California, so they make it easier with AB1291.

So why not let the blinder lead the blind? Is it any wonder California ranks around 40 in academic performance?

The same people say the California University System is not good enough for Black Students. Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill that grants community college students who transfer to historically Black colleges and universities a one-time grant of up to $5,000


As if that was not enough of the Extended-Release Cultural Tablets




Even teachers are functionally illiterate





So, why is it that trade school is not normalized? Sir Ken Robinson, for example, argues that our current educational systems are still based on a industrial paradigm of education – education is increasingly standardised and about conformity, and kids, who are living in the most stimulating age in history, fail to see the point of going to school, which is about ‘finding the right answers to pass the tests’ rather than about stimulating divergent thinking

Ironically, the most in-demand jobs in the next decade do not require a college degree.






The cost of being 'educated



The costs of operating a higher education institution keep growing exponentially - but not to educate but to inculcate - time to divest athletics 

Debt between majors varies greatly, at the Bachelor’s degree level. The major with the largest median debt for a Bachelor’s degree is Behavioral Sciences at $42,822. The major with the smallest median debt for a Bachelor’s degree is Science Technologies/Technicians, General, at $9,529.



Then there’s is the $1.8 trillion student loan debt,
after the trade school option was stigmatized, and trillions more on useless degrees. That the US Education system  is broken is a well-accepted premise. Even so, Bernie Sanders and Democrats continue to push Sanders' Triple Idiocy: Minimum Wage, Hairbrained College Push, Cancel Student Debt.



Transitive Property of Entitlement
If C > B and B> A then C > A
C= Entitlement Gap
B= Education
A= Gender gap 


Conclusion


The 2024 political divide, with the exception of abortion is not about ideology or gender.  After all, the gender gap is the education gap.  The education gap is about choice. For Men is a my brain, my wallet, my choice.

The Extended Release Culture Pills (#ERCP)


Today the New York Times ran  a story about the junk-food industry being on the hunt for new products, in response to "revolutionary new weight-loss drugs, including Ozempic."  The story is subliminal propaganda for the drug, void of any personal accountability, not unlike the October 2, 2024 of the NYT’s Modern Love, in which it explores obesity and romance."

Make America Healthy Again Requires a Sound Mind in a Sound Body – Sine Cera, To Sine NYT, Sine CDC, Sine Faucci

We are reminded that to make America healthy again we must detoxify the mind and the body.


We will take America without firing a single firing single shot.

We can't expect the American people to jump from capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism until they awaken one day to find that they have communism

We do not have to invade the United States, we will destroy you from within.

Nikita Khrushchev 

Both President Abraham and Nikita Khrushchev predicted it.

Like extended-release tablet medications designed to release an active ingredient over a specific duration gradually, ERCPs are used by the Morally Bankrupt Entertainment Industry and the education system for subliminal inculcation.

Both are like time release capsules- they pollute the mind and eventually the patients will suffer from cognitive dissonance.



The  AntiSemite,  AntiCatholic NYT  objects, to the use of the Bible in school as it is Anti-ERCT
After all, teaching children twerking is more important than teaching them  about wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety,  fear of the Lord., charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control 


If this is the classroom and civic  philosophy





And it gets worse:





According to EdSource many middle school students struggle to read well, study shows. New research reveals that many middle school students hUKit a “decoding threshold,” the 74 reported. More than 20% of students in fifth through seventh-grade trip over words they don't recognize and can't sound out.

Most High School Students are not academically prepared for college.  Students’ college readiness has reached historic lows, according to several metrics—including the lowest scores in 30 years on the ACT and declining scores on the SAT, the two primary standardized tests used for college admissions




Students at elite colleges can't read books.


The 'Smart'  Extended-Release Culture Tablets (SERCT)

Are analogous to nopptropics. Nootropics, also known as “smart drugs” are a diverse group of medicinal substances whose action improves human thinking, learning, and memory, especially in cases where these functions are impaired.

SECTs use the education system to give Americans small doses of Socialism, until as Khrushchev says, "they awaken one day and realize they have full on communism - not unlike the proverbial frog in a pot of water.

1/4 of a million Gender & Ethnic studies degrees. Who then go on to work for the teachers unions. Who recruit students for gender & ethnic studies degrees

Extended-Release Culture Tablet:
Students at elite colleges can't read, but can be indoctrinated with Morally Bankrupt Entertainment Industry
 


The Aripiprazole Extended-Release Culture Tablets (AERCT) are analogous to aripiprazole tablets with sensor.  The latter is a drug–device combination product of aripiprazole tablets for oral administration integrated with an Ingestible Event Marker sensor. It
(Abilify My-Cite) received the FDA's first approval of a digital medicine system in 2017.

The legacy media is a type of (AERCT).  It delivers misinformation and monitors its effects on the people using sophisticated algorithms to manipulate sentiment analysis.






When all  that fails, the blame goes to free speech.  Not unlike Allan Lichtman





Multimodal Extended-Release Culture Tablets (MERC)  are like multimodal pain management: the use of two or more drugs and/orinterventions that act by different mechanisms for providing analgesia. These drugs and/or interventions can be administered via the same route or by different routes. 

MERCs is by definition, the entertainment industry. 




The music industry, for example, i darker than most people could ever imagine. If you look at the content of the lyrics of the songs that are played on the radio, it’s unbelievably immoral and dark and anti-Jesus. When I started to see the sheer percentage of songs and videos that were leaning heavily in that direction, I came to recognize that it could not be an accident. People in very powerful positions are backing it; there are gatekeepers who are wanting this content that we hear now to be prevalent in our society. - Kira Fontana, vocal coach to major labels



Compare to; The Catholic Vision  Of Marriage.

The Good News


The 2024 elections showed us that
newspaper and celebrity endorsements don't translate into votes. It also showed the political divide, with the exception of abortion is not about ideology or gender. After all, the gender gap is the so-called education gap. The so-called  education gap is about choice. For Men is a my brain, my wallet, my choice. It's about the free lunch.


And the best part?



Disraeli and President John F. Kennedy would argue America's future looms bright

The results of the 2024 presidential election shows the political divide, with the exception of abortion is not about ideology or gender. After all, the gender gap is the education gap. The education gap is about choice. For Men is a my brain, my wallet, my choice. It’s about the free lunch. As John Kennedy told Congress: “The youth of a nation”, said Disraeli – Britain’s first, and so far only, Jewish Prime Minister – “are the trustees of posterity”. The future promise of any nation can be directly measured by the present prospects of its youth. This Nation facing increasingly complex economic, social and international challenges–is increasingly dependent on the opportunities, capabilities and vitality of those who are soon to bear its chief responsibilities.  And the youth vote soundly repudiated the democrats' bleak future for America.

Fair Weather Patriots are not Patriots. More like All Weather Perfidious

Recently, filmmaker and political activist Rob Reiner made headlines with a shocking declaration regarding the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. Reiner stated that he would “set himself on fire” if President Donald Trump were to win the election, meanwhile Tom Hanks and a myriad of celebrities allegedly said they would leave the country if President won the election. Giving the faux checkers the benefit of the doubt, whether Rob Reiner was serious about setting self on fire or Hanks was serious about leaving the country doesn't really matter. It's about fair Weather Patriotism. It's about subversion. Its about sabotage, Yellow Journalism and ultimately about treason.






Every race, color, creed, and gender repudiated Kamala Harris' failed platitudes-based campaign strategy which the NYT/MSM not only endorsed but promoted, and they are non the wiser, as the same vitriol post-election won't stop.

Kamala ran a sizzle campaign based on platitudes, like not going back, celebrity endorsements, name-calling: racists, misogynist, dictator and so on.




The NYT led the mainstream media cheering squad promoting the sizzle campaign, while surrogates used social media as a boom box to expand on the strategy like announcing a daily celebrity endorsement and post misinformation. A good number of these celebrities allegedly pledged they would leave the country if Kamala lost the election. The DNC was shocked, after all, the NYT/MSM said Harris was going to win: The Kamala Harris campaign is $20 million in debt, and Lindy Li, a member of the DNC Finance Committee, said she and others were misled Pollster Luntz  told CNN’s MJ Lee that the president holds “a lot of blame” for her defeat and a  number of Democrats have slammed Biden  for his decision to seek reelection last year, declaring that he “hung on too long” before abandoning his presidential bid in July. A Harris aide has also pointed to a moment during the vice president’s interview on “The View” last month, when she told hosts that she couldn’t think of something she could’ve done differently from Biden over the past four years, Reuters reported. But Occam's Razor suggests 
the NYT/MSM 'experts' played a big part using red journalism.


Celebrities reportedly who pledge to leave the country include  Legend, Chrissy Teigen, Rob Reiner, Barbara Streisand, Cher, Nancy Pelosi, Megan Rapinoe, Tom Hanks, Amy Schumer, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Bill Gates, Jane Fonda, Madonna, Mark Ruffalo, Kim Kardashian, Bruce Springsteen, George Clooney, Hunter Biden, Oprah, Robert De Niro, Samuel L. Jackson, Miley Cyrus, Bobbi Althoff, Rashida Tlaib, Stormy Daniels, Anthony Fauci, George Soros, Diddy, Eminem, Ellen DeGeneres, Sean Penn, Sharon Stone, Ashley Judd, Tommy Lee, Bryan Cranston, Billie Joe Armstrong, Bono Amber Rose. Bryan Cranston  Cardi B Chelsea Handler,George Clooney, George Lopez Jennifer Lopez (JLo), Jon Stewar, Keith Olbermann, Lena Dunham Miley Cyrus Ne-Yo Raven-Symoné, Sharon Stone, Snoop Dogg Stephen King Tom Hanks Whoopi Goldberg Eminem, Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce, Kim Kardashian, Tom Hanks, Oprah, Bryan Cranston, Hillary Clinton, Alec Baldwin, Whoopi Goldberg and on and on and on.  Safe to say all of Hollywood would be on the list.

But don't be alarmed, The Direct, Newsweek and the usual faux- checkers say the celebrities were either kidding, didn't mean it or never pledged to leave the country as others like @EM_Highlights. @celiina.t97, @realTrumpNewsX, Andrew Tate and others allege. "To make a long story short, while Tom Hanks has openly opposed and criticized Donald Trump, there is nothing to support rumors he has or will leave the country." Again, giving the faux checkers the benefit of the doubt, whether Rob Reiner was serious about setting self on fire or Hanks was serious about leaving the country doesn't really matter. It's about fair weather patriotism. It's about subversion. Its about sabotage, Yellow Journalism and ultimately about treason.





We did not need the results of the 2024 election to tell us that social media platforms  monetize hate and divisionSocial media is not about a marketplace of ideas where through vigorous debate, the best ideas emerges. In social media it's about the most vicious personal attacks through the use of the bigger boom box, the most clicks emerge. 


The 2024 elections did show us that while celebrities can monetize their respective number of fans, number of followers do not mean number of votes. Sentiment analysis can be manipulated to sell products, not candidates.


Patriotism

A true patriot is a person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors. Wikipedia defines it as the feeling of love, devotion, and a sense of attachment to the country, including feelings for things such as the language its ethnic, cultural, political, or historical aspects. 

A patriot is one who loves and supports his or her country. One who celebrate our history, - the good, the bad and the ugly - our people, and the heroes who proudly defend our flag. We remember that we all share a truly extraordinary heritage. The epic tale of a great nation whose people have risked everything for what they know is right and what they know is true. It is the chronicle of brave citizens who never give up, and fight, fight, fight.

A cursory look at most progressive posts -including most of the ones posted by the aforementioned celebrities  -on X, show the expressions are anything but patriotic
Other names for unpatriotic: alienated, apostate, cheating, double-crossing. faithless, false, perfidious, recreant, seditious, snaky, subversive, traitorous, treacherous, treasonable two-faced, two-timing,unloyal, untrue, wormlike.


Worse: First, the federal government launched a war on patriotism, war on Christianity, war on life, war on religious texts buyers, MAGA merchandise buyers, and fishing gear buyers. Now it’s the war on the Gnat (aka Small Fish.)




The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) creates new reporting obligations for a wide range of entities formed in the United States. Requires reporting companies to disclose information to the United States Treasury about their owners and persons who exercise control. Establishes tight reporting deadlines for entities formed after January 2024.



With Senators like John Cornyn, who needs Democrats 

With Senators like John Thun, who needs Democrats



Even the US Senate, once known as the “World's Greatest Deliberative Body ” due to its longer terms, smaller size, and statewide constituencies, which historically led to a more collegial and less partisan atmosphere is no more. Today’s Senate is dysfunctional by any measure. The “world’s greatest deliberative body” spends most of its time voting on routine presidential nominations to the executive and judicial branches.


When the Senate does consider legislation, most senators feel they have little substantive input. Bills are crafted behind closed doors under the purview of party leaders. The majority leader, often in consultation with the minority leader, brings those bills directly to the Senate floor, bypassing committee consideration. Floor debate is truncated, tightly controlled, and amendments are usually prohibited

Unpatriotic Acts


Disrespecting national symbols, such as the flag, desecrating the flag, disrespecting the national anthem, or showing contempt for other national symbols: something the FBI often does. 






Other unpatriotic acts include engaging in espionage or leaking sensitive national information.


Subversion 

Subversion  are ctions designed to undermine the military, economic, psychological, or political strength or morale of a governing authority

Subversive activity by government agencies 



Name one federal agency that has not fought President Donald Trump's MAGA move  ment.














The Justice System  under Democrats  isnt about Justice. It's about social control
Sadly  the #NYT/#MSM abdicated the 4th estate to aid & abet the #TheJusticeSystemDispensesJusticeHoax







Yellow journalism or Red journalism?

Yellow journalism is the use of lurid features and sensationalized news  to attract readers and increase circulation. The phrase was coined in the 1890s to describe the tactics employed in the furious competition between two New York City newspapers, the New York Journal and the New York World.




Red journalism is where newspapers, like the New York Times and others, not only endorse a candidate but actively promote their candidate but also misinform the public about the opposition.





We are beyond Yellow Journalism and possibly into sedition



Yellow Journalism or Red Journalism?

Red Journalism 






According to journalism professor Melita Garza, athough presidential candidate endorsements can offer readers insight into a newspaper’s thinking about the direction and needs of the country, not unlike celebrity endorsements, there is little empirical evidence that these endorsements sway readers to vote one way or another.


While Kamala Harris' campaign bowed never to go back, In the early days of the republic, newspapers, not unlike todsy, were partisan tools, often funded by politicians. In the early 1800s, it was fairly common to see publishers and editors as leaders of local political parties. Local and national party tickets were printed in newspapers, and the role of editors and publishers in state conventions was announced in the paper, too.


Such open political involvement today would be seen as unethical and would clearly compromise the news product. As the 19th century progressed, the press became free of party control. By the early 20th century, traditional newspapers pursued the widest audiences possible, emphasizing news that would appeal across the political spectrum.


Today, mainstream media is covering the news as if were the 1800s. At least one owner of a major newspaper, the Los Ageles Times. Has seen the futility of red journalism. Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong refused to endorse the Kamala Harris and said he wants to hire more conservative voices.  Soon-Shiong insists he is seeking a better balance after vowing to replace the remaining members of the editorial board who did not quit after he killed the endorsement for Harris.


Conclusion

In the end, it's not whether celebrities say they want to leave the country. It's about fair weather patriotism, worse than declared enemies. It's about subversion. Its about sabotage, Yellow Journalism and ultimately about treason.
