BREAKING: #IowaCaucuses results with 62 percent reporting: Buttigieg 26.9 percent; Sanders 25.1 percent; Warren 18.3 percent; Joe Biden 15.6 percent; Amy Klobuchar 12.6 percent; Andrew Yang 1.1 percent. pjmedia.com/election/live-…
Important to note: in the current slate of results, Bernie Sanders seems to have won the first round of the caucus (initial preference) and the "popular vote." Supporters of the non-viable candidates are choosing Buttigieg.
Also key: Joe Biden LOST votes in between the rounds. That means he wasn't viable in many counties. This is an even bigger story, I think. #IowaCaucuses didn't have to damage Biden, but this might really weaken his electability argument.

🚨DEEP STATE GEARING UP President-elect Donald Trump poses a serious threat to the woke bureaucrats staffing the federal government.

The massive left-wing influence campaign I call The Woketopus🐙 won't go away on Jan. 20. Far from it.

Instead, the left-wing ideologues in the administrative state have a three-part strategy to hamstring Trump, undermine his admin from within, and prepare for the next liberal administration.

1⃣GOVERNMENT IN EXILE

Some of the bureaucrats, knowing Trump will fire them, have already found their next jobs—in the left-wing nonprofits that form the arms of the Woketopus.

Tracy Stone-Manning, for example, will leave the Bureau of Land Management for The Wilderness Society, a woke environmentalist group.

All the woke nonprofits that staffed and advised the Biden administration will welcome back their old colleagues and their ideological allies. Bureaucrats will flock to the Center for American Progress, the Human Rights Campaign, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the Southern Poverty Law Center, among others.

From there, they will influence the political discourse and bide their time⏱️ for another liberal administration.

2⃣TRUMP-PROOFING

Various federal agencies are trying to head off Trump's attempts to drain the swamp.

1⃣OPM finalized a rule attempting to block Trump from reinstating his "Schedule F" executive order, which would make it easier to fire certain bureaucrats.

2⃣EPA signed a collective bargaining agreement with its employees' union creating mechanisms for employees to report any coworker who had "improper influence" on a scientific study.

3⃣NIH designated an official to identify supposed political meddling in the agency's work.

Stay tuned—I'm sure there are far more attempts to hamstring Trump.

🚨WHEN LABOR BECOMES MANAGEMENT

Employees at America's sixth-largest labor union, the United Auto Workers, are on strike, accusing the UAW of union-busting.

The strike✊ began this week, but apparently it's inconvenient for the legacy media's narrative. Please RT this to get the word out there.

dailysignal.com/2024/12/05/iro…Image
UAW Staff United is still on strike in Manhattan, and the legacy media still seems utterly disinterested in covering this story.

The pro-union outlet PayDay Report covered the strike, but very few others have👀

"Given the high-profile media attention on UAW President Shawn Fain and the fact that the strike is occurring in the media hub of New York City, you would think every labor reporter in the country would be covering this. However, outside of Payday Report, no other labor reporter or labor publication has covered the strike."Image

🚨FACT CHECK🧵

Advocates of "gender-affirming care" made at least 6 false and dubious claims in the Supreme Court oral arguments for U.S. v. Skrmetti today.

Transgender medical interventions are so grotesque, advocates use euphemistic terms like "gender-affirming care" to hide their true nature. The arguments today illustrated once again that gender ideology considers natural puberty to be unhealthy for some minors and prefers the artificial facsimile of puberty created by Big Pharma products...💉

1⃣US SG Elizabeth Prelogar claimed that "puberty blockers" entail "just pressing pause" on natural growth.

In reality, these cancer drugs—not approved by the FDA for gender dysphoria—have serious side effects & hormone doctors disagree with Prelogar. 2/9
2⃣ACLU's Chase Strangio claimed it's “clearly established in the science” that "gender-affirming care" reduces "depression, anxiety, & su*cidality." Yet a pro-trans FDA official admitted a study showed "puberty blockers" increased su*cidal thoughts. 3/9

🚨THE LEFT'S ENFORCER:

The Southern Poverty Law Center has taken aim at Not the Bee, the real-news partner of The Babylon Bee. The SPLC is threatening to doxx the people who write for Not the Bee, to reveal their identities to expose them to ridicule and ostracization.

The SPLC is trying to silence Not the Bee because it publishes news that contradicts the SPLC's woke narrative. But I also suspect there's a secondary motive at play.

First, a word on the SPLC. What is it?

As the name suggests, the group was founded to provide legal representation to poor people in the South. Yet, as I wrote in my book, "Making Hate Pay: The Corruption of the Southern Poverty Law Center," Morris Dees used the SPLC to sue Klan groups into bankruptcy, a noble mission but one that SPLC lawyers described as "shooting fish in a barrel" in the 1980s. When he ran out of Klan groups, Dees turned to ever more mainstream conservative and Christian groups.

Today, the SPLC releases a "hate map" that plots mainstream groups like the Center for Immigration Studies, Alliance Defending Freedom, and Moms for Liberty alongside chapters of the Klan. Their crimes? Disagreeing with the SPLC's woke agenda. The SPLC has become the Left's cancel culture enforcer.

This makes the SPLC quite useful to the Left, which is why companies like Eventbrite and NextDoor still use the SPLC despite its many scandals.

What Scandals?🤔

It might be more pertinent to ask what kind of scandal hasn't dogged the SPLC.

It's quite a list:

1⃣$3M in a defamation settlement to a Muslim reformer the SPLC branded an "anti-Islamic extremist."

2⃣A racial discrimination and sexual harassment lawsuit that led SPLC to fire its cofounder and have its president resign in 2019.

3⃣A former employee saying the "hate" accusations are a "highly profitable scam" to bilk donors.

4⃣The FBI publicly declaring that SPLC isn't a reliable source of information (more on this later).

5⃣A defamation lawsuit against the SPLC making it past a key legal hurdle last year.

6⃣Accusations of "union-busting" from employees amid a restructuring earlier this year.

🚨'ROTTEN TO A CORE': 5-year FEMA veteran reveals woke bias at the disaster agency.

FEMA supervisor Marn’i Washington infamously told agents to avoid houses with signs supporting Donald Trump in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell condemned this, suggesting that Washington acted alone.

Washington said she didn't act alone, and FEMA sources told me that Washington's probably right. A former employee who worked at FEMA for 5 years said Criswell's statement is a "complete lie."😲

'COMPLETE LIE': The former FEMA employee told me that he also witnessed FEMA leaders encouraging staff to avoid whites and conservatives on the supposition that they would be hostile.

"They were told to avoid Trump, avoid any house that has a Trump sign, in a verbal meeting," he said. "I've seen that happen."😲

"We were told, 'Don't go into any house that looks suspicious,'" the former employee recalled. "They would use words like, 'hick,' 'cowboys,' 'rednecks.' You can change that over to 'Trump supporters,' 'MAGA.'"

Referring to Washington, the fired supervisor, the former employee said: "She's saying, 'I didn't make this up on my own.' I believe her because I've totally seen it."

"I believe she did exactly what she was told to do," he said. "I read Deanne's statement—it's a lie, it's a complete lie."

'WE WILL HEAR MORE':

A current employee who spoke to me on condition of anonymity agreed regarding Criswell.

"The good people at FEMA deserve stronger leadership," he said. "I believe the FEMA administrator to be premature, shortsighted, and misleading in her assessment of this incident."

"While public responder safety is a paramount objective, responders are given the necessary latitude to determine whether unsafe conditions exist," the FEMA employee added. "The extreme liberal ideology behind DEI that this Biden-Harris administration has prioritized, with support from the mainstream media and their sympathetic sycophants, convinced humanitarian responders that Trump signs imply a risk to their personal safety."

"I do not believe Ms. Washington is alone and I believe we will hear more instances of how DEI has improperly influenced the delivery of lifesaving aid to Americans in need," the staffer said.

🚨Why is the Biden-Harris administration so woke? Didn't Biden campaign as a moderate?🤔

This chart explains what happened. Bear with me: I know it looks like a conspiracy theory, but I have the receipts.

In short: The Left's dark money network funds a system of woke nonprofits that staff and advise the administrative state, getting their far-left policy agenda implemented in the federal government.

My book, "The Woketopus: The Dark Money Cabal Manipulating the Federal Government," outlines exactly how this works and zeroes in on a few key issues.Image
One of the biggest issues for me has been the weaponization of federal law enforcement against conservatives.

At the center of this is the Southern Poverty Law Center, a far-left smear factory that puts mainstream conservative and Christian groups on a "hate map" with the Ku Klux Klan. The SPLC targets organizations that oppose its far-left agenda on critical race theory, immigration, transgender issues, and more.

SPLC President Margaret Huang has bragged that federal law enforcement reached out to the SPLC for advice on combatting the "domestic terror threat," and FOIA documents reveal the extent of the SPLC's influence in government. SPLC leaders and staff have visited the White House at least 18 times, according to visitor logs.

The SPLC has also received funding💰 from the Foundation to Promote Open Society, the Proteus Fund, the New Venture Fund, and the Tides Foundation.Image
The vast influence campaign I call the Woketopus has also monkeyed with election rules. The leftist group Demos has extensive ties to the Biden-Harris administration.

When the Senate failed to advance the Democrats' H.R. 1 bill that would have amounted to a federal takeover of elections, Biden instead signed an executive order that echoed a Demos paper nearly word-for-word.

This executive order enlisted federal agencies in registering voters, and early in the administration's implementation of the order, the government convened a host of Woketopus groups — including SPLC, the Tides Foundation, and many others — to a "listening session." Conspicuously absent was any conservative group or any group warning about election integrity.😲Image
