Batshit Crazy Progressive Hypocrites

When I wrote Escape from Portland, it was a little ahead of the curve. But not by that much.

You’ve got a real problem when a local real estate blog is writing about the “Mass Exodus from Portland.”

The Portland Tribune notes that, “Portland now ranks 66 out of 80 in national commercial real estate markets.”

Nathan J. Robinson’s hypocrisy sums up the emptiness of American Leftism

This week, a crisis rocked the digital newsroom of Current Affairs, a small but influential American Left-wing publication established in 2016 by Nathan J. Robinson, a Yale Law School graduate and erstwhile Harvard Ph.D. candidate. Robinson is a foppish character: he affects an English accent and a dandified mode of dress, and had grown weary of his employees’ recent attempts to organise a cooperative workplace rooted in egalitarian principles of governance.  Following a contentious Zoom meeting on August 7, Robinson began eliminating positions as part of an attempt to regain control of a project he regarded as uniquely his.

Former U.S. Women’s National Team (USWNT) goalkeeper Hope Solo claims that star U.S. player Megan Rapinoe bullied some players to get them to kneel during the national anthem before games.

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher admitted that, from an environmental perspective, “there’s nothing probably more selfish you can do than take a private jet.” And the excuses people make for doing so are “all bullshit.” But admitted he does the same thing and said on the climate, “We’re all driving off the Grand Canyon holding hands, it’s the decision we make.”

Why did Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez run for Congress against a liberal Democrat, Joseph Crowley? Well, as she told CNN’s Dana Bash in an hour-long interview (!) last night on CNN, AOC lives in an imaginary world where people have to choose between eating and filling their prescriptions. (Has she been to the Bronx? The average woman weighs 191 pounds there.)

In case you didn’t hear, former President Barack Obama had a birthday bash over the weekend. His 60th was celebrated in Martha’s Vineyard, Mass., alongside Hollywood elites, friends, confidants, and politicos. And yes, it is only the latest instance of Democrats operating on a “for thee, but not me” basis when it comes to the coronavirus.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York has come under fire following an investigation into his conduct by New York Attorney General Letitia James, which found 11 counts of sexual harassment. Following the release of this report, prominent democratic politicians from the speaker of the New York State Assembly all the way up to President Joe Biden have called for his resignation. Yet while people across the country are surprised, this is not the first time the governor has shown us who he really is.

The New York government has long been corrupt. And while Cuomo has vowed to rid Albany of the moral and political rot that has plagued New York for so long, he has been contributing to it.

Albany officer Craig Apple describes woman as a victim and says investigation of governor could lead to arrest

The sheriff of Albany county, New York, on Saturday repeatedly referred to a woman who filed a criminal complaint against Governor Andrew Cuomo, following her allegation of sexual misconduct, as a victim and touted her bravery in coming forward.

“I think we’ve all read the attorney general’s report, I think we all know what’s in it,” Sheriff Craig Apple told reporters during a press conference in the state capital on Saturday, adding: “At this point, I’m very comfortable and safe saying she’s in fact a victim.”
