Sunday's Absurdities: Chris Wallace Angry; Rogan Self-Immolates; GoFundMe Backs Down and More

It’s another Dance of the Sugarplum Absurdities prancing across our stage here on this beautiful, cold Sunday morning.

Let’s start with the old commie son of a commie, Chris Wallace, son of Mike, deliverer of leftist bias across our screens for the last 40 years or so. Wallace famously scooted out of Fox News late last year to take a gig at CNN. Well, ok, the gig wasn’t exactly at CNN as it turns out; it was at CNN’s yet-to-come-to-fruition streaming platform, to be called CNN+ if it ever happens, where Wallace would supposedly play host on a weekday interview show on which he would bash Republicans while tossing softball questions to a parade of Democrat guests.

Chris Wallace freaking out because he jumped ship at Fox News after 18 years for CNN gig that is now hanging in the balance after CNN President Zucker abruptly resigned. “Wallace feels that he has been stiffed. He’s got NO staff, NO Executive Producer...”

bit.lyDefection Disaster: ‘Irate’ Chris Wallace Has Meltdown Over Jeff Zucker-Allison Gollust Scandal, Said To Be At War In D.C. Bureau With Jake…CNN is falling apart behind the scenes only days after Zucker resigned from his post.

Well, golly, it seems that there’s a problem with this plan, which is that it was all the idea of Jeff Zucker, the disgraced now ex-CEO at CNN who resigned under pressure last week. RadarOnline reported Saturday that poor little commie Chrissy is all verklempt now that is savior has fled the scene before his streaming platform has even come online.

Oh, the humanity! Say it ain’t so, Jeff!

Even better, it turns out that commie Chrissy also hates - hates - Fake Jake Tapper, CNN’s smarmy news-faker who hosts an extremely low-rated daytime program called, ummmm, well something. I don’t know what it’s called, frankly, because why would I? No doubt, Tapper also hates commie Chrissy because, well, why wouldn’t anyone hate either one of these circus clowns?

So, Chrissy’s not comfortable with his situation, a situation that depended entirely on Jeff Zucker to come to ultimate fruition. Isn’t that great? I think it is. In fact, it’s like totally awesome and stuff.

Much as I hate to say it, it turns out Joe Rogan is just another celebrity dimwit who thinks he can curry favor with the woke cancel culture by issuing a public apology. This never works, and it usually means the person doing the apologizing is about to lose his or her battle with the woke left.

forbes.comSpotify Pulls More Than 110 Episodes Of Joe Rogan’s PodcastRogan apologized Saturday for his use of racial slurs on the podcast.

Yesterday, as the evil minions at Spotify were busy deleting more than 100 of Rogan’s episodes from their platform, presumably because they contained something that might make some leftwing snowflake uncomfortable, Rogan released a second apology video on his Instagram account. In this one, he apologizes for using the “n-word” several times in the past, as he was quoting other people who had said it, and towards the end actually used the always-fatal talking point:

“this is a teachable moment.”

Pop Crave @PopCrave

Joe Rogan apologizes for resurfaced podcast clips of him using the N-word. Spotify has reportedly removed 70 episodes of The Joe Rogan Experience that see the comedian using racist slurs.

Oh, my. He’s just another dumbass celebrity, no doubt responding desperately to pressure coming from his leftwing bosses at Spotify.

Mark my words, one of two things is going to be the ultimate outcome here:

• He will either be cancelled completely by Spotify; or

• His show will continue, but in a reduced form that will no longer be one of our society’s most cutting-edge, risk-taking and truth-telling endeavors.

Sadly, Mr. Rogan has been neutered. By taking this approach, all he has done is to fuel the flame underneath the Perpetual Outrage Mob on the woke left. The only thing he has accomplished here is to inform the Mob that he’s a coward who has no real support from his bosses, an easy target they can now devour at will.

How sad.

BTW, here is our current quasi-president doing exactly what Rogan did, only the Sock Puppet did it during a Senate hearing:

Cernovich @Cernovich

Joe Rogan quotes others using a bad word and it’s a mob after him. Joe Biden quoting the n bomb and he gets 81,000,000 votes!

You can be certain that no one in the woke Mob will be coming for the Sock Puppet.

Rogan wasn’t the only celebrity coward to issue a futile apology to the Mob on Saturday. Here’s The Rock, who had defended Rogan last week, doing the same thing:

Dumbasses. All of them.

In another good news story that is bad news for the left, the thieving scumbags who run GoFundMe responded to public outrage about their efforts to redistribute $10 million donated to the Canadian truckers to “approved charities” like BLM and Planned Parenthood Saturday, announcing that they would refund the contributions to the donors instead.

Ok, this about-face wasn’t just due to public pressure. It was also a response to efforts by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Republican state attorneys general around the country promising to mount investigations into GoFundMe’s thieving corporate practices.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said he will investigate GoFundMe for 'fraud' after cancelling the Freedom Convoy's fundraising page

trib.alRon DeSantis said he will investigate GoFundMeFlorida Gov. Ron DeSantis said he would be opening an Investigation against GoFundMe after it took down a page for Canadian truckdrivers protesting COVID mandates who had raised $9 million.

Here’s an excerpt from a story at The Hill:

Speaking hours after the tweet was posted, per Reuters, DeSantis said that it was fraud for GoFundMe to “commandeer” the $9 million raised for protesting truck drivers, adding that “these donors should be given a refund,” despite the company's announcement that the funds would be returned.

GoFundMe took down the page raising donations for the demonstrations on Friday, claiming that it violated the site’s terms of service, according to Reuters. The site initially announced after removing the page that donors needed to request a refund within two weeks or the money they had been given would be donated to charity.

Donald Trump Jr. on Friday called for all Republican attorneys general to investigate the matter in a post on Twitter.

"All GOP Attorney Generals should be looking at this & helping to get people their $$$ back so it can be redirected to the truckers," he tweeted. "Don’t let @gofundme scam you… call your AGs & let them know. GFM seems to have no problem finding BLM riots… peaceful truckers should be fine too."

Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry (R) and West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey (R) both signaled on Saturday that they would be looking into the matter.

Addressing GoFundMe's announcement, Morrissey said on Twitter Saturday morning, "We're not done yet & will not tolerate shady practices."

[End]

What this episode shows is how GOP governors and state AGs can effectively fight back against the abusive practices of these leftist social media platforms when the federal government is in communist hands, as it is today. Over the next 3 years, our society is going to need these Republican state officials to engage in many more coordinated efforts like this one if our Republic is to survive intact against this relentless leftwing assault.

DeSantis is a rare gift - a Republican politician with integrity, instincts and real guts. He’s the guy who can lead this effort. We should all support him any way we can.

That is all.
