Please Leave Silently Into The Night......

You have come across a mystery box. But what is inside?

It could be literally anything from the serene to the horrific,

from the beautiful to the repugnant,

from the mysterious to the familiar.

If you decide to open it, you could be disappointed,

you could be inspired, you could be appalled.

This is not for the faint of heart or the easily offended.

You have been warned.

I Think Everyone Has Had Just About Enough Of Their BS...

The Trouble With Marxism Is....Well... She Is An Evil Woman....

Hey woman, you got the blues

'Cause you ain't got no one else to use

There's an open road that leads nowhere

So just make some miles between here and there

There's a hole in my head where the rain comes in

You took my body and played to win

Ha ha woman, it's a crying shame

But you ain't got nobody else to blame

Columbia professors want Biden to appoint a ‘Secretary of Racial Justice’

A group of faculty members and criminal justice reform advocates affiliated with Columbia University want President Joe Biden to appoint a “Secretary of Racial Justice” within his first 100 days in office.

The appointee would ensure that all federal policies promote racial equality, according to the proposed priorities list.

“This position would be responsible for coordinating actions across the administration to correct the impact of racial disparities,” members of the Square One Project wrote in a news release.

The Square One initiative consists of Columbia professors and other experts who are working on a three-year-long project to address problems of poverty and racism. It’s currently led by Professor Bruce Western, who teaches sociology at Columbia.

The project is part of the Ivy League university’s Justice Lab, which researches criminal justice and proposes new policies, such as the racial justice secretary position.

This appointee “would review federal policy…to better understand ways it has increased racial disparities and propose innovative solutions to reverse them.”

The proposal points to similar offices in Charlottesville, Virginia, Pittsburgh and San Francisco.

However, one black Columbia professor expressed skepticism of the idea.

“I’m not sure I quite understand the secretary of racial justice, though — I wonder about the overlap with the Civil Rights division of the Justice Department,” English Professor John McWhorter told The College Fix via email. McWhorter said “it would be great to look into the intersection of poverty and criminal justice, as this is at the nexus of much of what beleaguers the black community today.”

McWhorter also worried that the particular definition of “racial justice” that his Columbia colleagues are advocating for could be misguided.

“I may be wrong here [but] the particular idea of racial justice might be influenced by the perspectives on antiracism of [Boston University Professor] Ibram Kendi, which I find oversimplified and of little use to addressing how racism plays out in actual society.”

McWhorter recently wrote an essay criticizing the tactics used by anti-racism advocates.

Square One also wants Biden to “Reimagine the Carceral System and Condemn Its Violent History” and “Address Poverty.”

“Time and time again, we have seen firsthand the flaws within law enforcement agencies across the country,” the criminal justice reform proponents said. “The Biden administration shouldn’t just define safety as the absence of crime, but also as...

WATCH: Tucker Carlson slams Pelosi pick for Capitol riot investigator, saying 'it's like putting Joy Reid in charge of security'

Tucker Carlson exposed the retired Lt. General Russell Honoré who has been selected by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to lead the investigation into Capitol security during the Jan. 6 riot on Capitol Hill. On his show Wednesday night, Carlson revealed Honoré as divisive, a man who appears to have already made his determinations before the investigation has been completed.

"This is a problem that this guy should be in charge of anything," Carlson said. He later remarked "This is the guy, it's like putting Joy Reid in charge of security."

"Nancy Pelosi says General Russel Honoré has been quote, 'assessing our security needs by reviewing what happened on Jan. 6, and how we must ensure that it does not happen again,'" Carlson said.

"But that’s not right. General Honoré already has come to conclusions about what happened on Jan. 6, he's been very public about that. And you should know what those conclusions are and what kind of person he is. Just because his title is 'general' doesn't mean that he’s sane, or not a wild-eyed partisan. On the day after the Capitol riot, Honoré suggested it was an inside job, and that the sergeant-in-arms might be implicated in the plot."

The clips Carlson showed, of Honoré expressing his views on news segments, make it clear that he thinks that the Capitol Police were largely "complicit" in the events of Jan. 6. This is because he believes that the officers were "Trumpsters."

Carlson questioned Honoré's narrative, asking "How would he know that? Well, of course, he doesn't know that he doesn’t have any idea and who you voted for is irrelevant. These are sworn police officers. They're doing their job, but General Honoré decided to attack them on the basis of speculation about their political beliefs. This is a problem that this guy would be in charge of anything. And that problem goes beyond General Honoré prejudging what happened at the Capitol on the base of no knowledge. Like so many of our country's ex generals, this guy's an authoritarian and an unhinged...
