New in PJ Media:
Up in Bangor, Maine, at least parents can rest assured that in the local public schools, their children are learning about what’s really important. At Bangor High School, enlightened educators doled out $1,000 to a young man who calls himself Priscilla Poppycocks and dresses up as an exaggerated mockery of a woman. Priscilla Poppycocks enjoyed this payday for the hard work of regaling students with tales of “his life growing up gay in Maine.” As far as these learned administrators are concerned, it was money well spent: after all, young Maine residents will need to be well-versed in the religion of the state, don’t they?
According to a Fox News report Tuesday, Freedom of Access Act (FOAA) documents revealed yet another revolting episode of our age of absurdity: Priscilla Poppycocks, a drag queen whose real name is Dominick Varney, “spoke to Bangor High School students on May 4 as part of the school’s ‘Support, Educate, Empower’ series to ‘empower’ LGBT students.” The good news is that “the school confirmed to Fox News Digital that Varney did not attend in drag.” Hey, that’s terrific, but couldn’t Bangor High School have found something else to support, educate, and empower students about? Are our public schools now just one long advertisement for homosexuality?
The money that the school used to pay Dominic Varney was actually supposed to go for a different kind of propaganda. The dough came out of a $15,000 grant that the school received from the Nellie Mae Education Foundation, which endeavors to “advance racial equity in public education.” Now, you might have thought that since the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, racial inequality in education was illegal, stigmatized, and vanishingly rare. But don’t you see that you’re overlooking all that systemic racism that we need Critical Race Theorists to come point out for us?
The Nellie Mae Education Foundation explains: “We believe that applying a racial equity lens is essential for analyzing and solving problems that have endured for generations, impact individuals and communities of color most acutely, and ultimately affect ALL people, whether in other marginalized or privileged groups.” “Racial equity,” of course, means blaming white people for as much as possible, no matter how outlandish, and demanding special privileges for “people of color.”
That much is clear, but what’s not clear is how Dominic Varney’s presentation advanced those divisive objectives. Varney, after all, is white. Bangor, Maine is 88% white. And Priscilla Poppycocks didn’t show up to spread race victimhood propaganda. Fox noted that “in the 90-minute workshop, titled ‘Make Them Hear You,’ Varney discussed ‘growing up gay in Maine.’” The flier announcing the event enthused: “During our conversations together you will have some opportunities to experience some acting techniques and gain some first hand knowledge of how being different is the biggest advantage we all have to be successful in our lives. And most likely, you’ll hear him sing!”
There is more. Read the rest here.

Turn off the government currency printing press. It’s funding non-stop criminality. Ron Paul was right.
Westman says
It’s a strange world where “progressive” Western women demand androgynous native males in place of the normal “toxic” masculinity while inviting testosterone-laden male immigrants into their nations.
“Priscilla Poppycocks” is just an extreme example of a “male” who will never protect females on a personal or national level and another undermining of males roles in society by “educators”, all paid for by the citizens.
Consider the current Ukraine war. If NATO was pulled into the war, could the feminized men of the West actually win a war?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I think that might be one advantage of entering this war on Ukraine’s side: if we could send all those feminized men & masculized women to places like Kharkiv, Mariupol, Kherson & other places on the front line, while telling Zelensky to drop his cluster bombs on Belgorod and Bryansk. The Russians can then put our brave
men women peoplewhatevers to the test, and we’d know how good they’d be in real missionsIn fact, we could even toss in those FBI stormtroopers who know how to raid Roger Stone or Peter Navarro: they should do great on the frontlines, no? In fact, we should bring in the draft, and send every Democrat and NeoCon Republican (think voters for Pence, Haley, Christie) to Ukraine. It’ll be fun to see how they like it
Westman says
Yes, and amusing, Infidel.
Seriously, it seems a draft will be required to fill out the military manpower needs that are currently falling short. It was always the “toxic masculine” men who kept the volunteer military staffed. Between progressives calling them “deplorables”, the political-industrial-military complex using them for fodder, and being forced to serve with sex and pronoun benders, the day of the peacetime voluntary military is over.

If I remember, Greece fell into this kind of madness before it was reduced to a second rate nation after being a world power. They had to recruit a mercenary army of homosexuals to fight their wars. I don’t believe it went well at all.
Wellington says
There is definitely a systemic problem in America—systemic progressivism. And this systemic problem is methodically destroying America from within.
When deviancy is normalized by a society, that society is in deep trouble. Happening now big time in the USA.

Speaking as a geezer, I see a replay of the Silly ‘Sixties and Sillier ‘Seventies. I’ve always seen transgenderism as fundamentally a means of mocking the other sex; and, since living in Bangkok, seeing the whole sexual revolution as a bunch of wealthy jades trying to get as big and diverse a pool of potential playthings from among the vulnerable young.
Speaking for professional swindlers of the young–oops, public school teachers–we are told we must affirm a gender dysphoric kids “gender identity” or risk abetting his suicide. As it happens, we end up doing both. What does it say when someone is alienated from his own body and chromosomes?
At this point, a part of me thinks that Tehran flying lessons are a case of a broken clock being right twice daily.

So we have to lie to them – in order to prevent them from committing suicide!
I think I’d go with “professional swindlers of the young”…

I sure hope the past election was stolen I hate to think this country is so far gone we actually elected Biden crime family

Historically, when I would think of the state of Maine, I would think of beautiful beaches, lobsters, blueberries, and beautiful lakes and mountains.
With Gov. Mills, the state is taking a very hard Left turn.
