Why bother voting? The DNC has it rigged
Plus, Djokovic gets even, our 'unjustice' system, organ donors beware, and field commander terminator rural Jesus on the interstate.
Instagram: In a real democracy, every citizen has a right to a vote
BUT —
You’re going to lose your right to vote in a free and fair election based on the DNC’s plan…. I can win 2/3 of the popular vote and still be denied the nomination. That’s not democracy. That’s theater.
Here’s another interview with Dennis Kucinich: The Democratic primary is fixed or here, The primary is rigged.
It’s not really a surprise that the DNC is giving RFK the Bernie treatment. BERNIE, WHERE ARE YOU? SPEAK UP!

Histrionic narcissism behind unequal sentences for January 6 and black lives matter protesters
True justice must remain* blind to politics and ideology.
It was right that a judge on Tuesday sentenced Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys, to prison for 22 years for his role in the January 6 riots, say mainstream journalists and experts in law and politics… But it wasn’t right to sentence Tarrio to so many years in prison. Not only did Tarrio not commit any violent acts on January 6, he wasn’t even in town.
*Being color and politically blind has never been a strong suit of our American “justice” system. That said, we second this: a constant striving to attain “true justice.”
Novak Djokovic wins (the ‘sponsored by Moderna’) US Open in ultimate rebuke of vaccine mandates that barred him
It’s hard to imagine a more perfect response to Moderna’s desperate advertising than one of the most prominently unvaccinated figures in the sports world winning a tournament in front of a sign imploring viewers to take their latest unnecessary shot.

Death by donation
We haven’t fact-checked all this, but we are fans of whatsherface and could not resist this graphic. Maybe it depends on where you live (or die)? Regardless, if you’re an organ donor, you’ll want to hear this.

Mayor Adams warns migrant crisis will ‘destroy’ NYC, rips Biden for failing to help
“This issue will destroy New York City. Destroy New York City,” says NYC Mayor Eric Adams.
Meanwhile, we imagine Texas Gov. Greg Abbott who keeps bussing the migrants up to New York is laughing his ass off.

Podcast: Faith in democracy
We cannot give in to paranoid fantasists who believe every election result that doesn’t go their way must be the result of a conspiracy and a cover-up. Neither can we treat reasonable attempts to tighten election security as wholesale violations of our civil rights.

What the teenagers are saying these days
The winners of The Free Press’ teenage essay contests seem beyond their years in wisdom. I’ve shared them with my 14-year-old son.
No. 3: Why I traded my smartphone for an ax, “At 15, Caleb Silverberg made the most important decision of his life. He ditched technology and headed to the forest.”
No. 2: I had a helicopter mom. I found Pornhub anyway. “‘Porn is not content. It’s a substance. And it must be controlled like one,’ argues 16-year-old Isabel Hogben.”
And the winner, No. 1: A constitution for teenage happiness, “Ruby LaRocca—the winner of our high school essay contest—urges her generation to read old books, memorize poems, and invite senior citizens to parties.”

Instagram: Artificial turf is giving kids cancer
We’ve said this before and we’re gonna keep saying it (my kids play soccer on turf 😠): The rubber crumbs in artificial turf are made from recycled tires. The crumbs are full of lead, mercury, and arsenic. There is strong evidence that they are giving kids - especially goalies - cancer.

Editor’s note: I took my youngest to FL this weekend for her 17th bday. If you haven’t seen the bizarre white Jesus billboards heading down I-75 once you hit south GA, you are really missing a treat. The real art is their jarring juxtaposition with the Lion’s Den adult super store billboards, and how both just continue spamming your eyeballs for miles. Unlike those, DWYT billboards don’t suck. Please consider funding our billboard campaign to help us get independent news in front of the masses!
