New York Times writer Nikole Hannah-Jones claimed during a Tuesday interview with CBS News that “destroying property which can be replaced is not violence” and subsequently lashed out at a conservative publication after they quoted her. Hannah-Jones is the author behind the much-criticized 1619 Project , which sought to rewrite American history by falsely suggesting that “one of the primary reasons” that colonists revolted against the British was to preserve slavery. The claim was widely debunked by historians and Hannah-Jones had to issue a correction admitting that she got it wrong. Speaking on Tuesday about the violent riots that have rocked the United States in recent days, Hannah Jones said, “I think one, we need to be really careful with our language, um, yes it is disturbing to see property being destroyed. It is disturbing to see people taking property from stores, but these are things and violence is when an agent of the state kneels on a man’s neck until all of … [Read more...] about NYT Writer Nikole Hannah-Jones On Riots: ‘Destroying Property Which Can Be Replaced Is Not Violence’ | The Daily Wire

If becoming an American citizen was a one-in, one-out proposition, I’d be vying for the spot that Mr. Billie Joe Armstrong plans to vacate. In a London stadium on Friday, June 24, the lead singer of popular punk rock band Green Day revealed his intention to renounce his U.S. citizenship after the Supreme Court’s ruling on Roe v. Wade . “F*** America,” he told the crowd. “There’s too much f***ing stupid in the world to go back to that miserable f***ing excuse for a country.” At a concert in Huddersfield the next day, he continued to insult his homeland, saying “f*** the Supreme Court of America” and calling the High Court justices “pricks.” Although it seems like a knee-jerk reaction, Armstrong’s contention with the American way of life has been brewing for decades. In contrast, over the last 20 years, I have discovered the reasons why I choose to be fully committed to America. Here’s why I want what Armstrong is so eager to give away. I immigrated from Scotland … [Read more...] about This July 4th, I Will Gladly Take Billie Joe Armstrong’s American Citizenship | The Daily Wire

Minneapolis burned on Wednesday night after riots over the death of George Floyd, who died in police custody earlier this week, spun out of control and turned violent. The Star Tribune reported that most of the violence came from a massive crowd that was rioting outside Minneapolis’ Third Precinct police headquarters who were “throwing objects at the building and officers and turning more violent as the night wore on.” “The AutoZone Auto Parts store across from the Third Precinct was set afire. As some protesters tried to extinguish the fire, others danced gleefully in front of the flames and smoke, snapping selfies,” The Star Tribune reported. “At the nearby Lake Street Target store, looters were seen leaving with items ranging from large TVs to clothing to groceries. Looting also occurred at Minnehaha Lake Wine & Spirits, at Hiawatha and Lake, and at many other businesses in the area.” Footage from inside the Target that has been looted by rioters in Minneapolis.

Tim Carpenter was assaulted after taking a photo of protesters,” USA Today reported . “Protesters, chanting for the release of the man who’d been arrested earlier, also broke glass at the Tommy Thompson Center on West Washington Avenue and smashed windows at the Dane County Jail and at the state Capitol before police arrived just before 1 a.m. ” . @TimCarpenterMKE was just punched in the face by Madison protesters because he was filming.

Nikole Hannah-Jones, the creator of The New York Times’ much-scrutinized “1619 Project” who describes herself as “The Beyoncé of Journalism” and “ smart and thuggish,” caused a stir online over the weekend over a series of controversial tweets, including one she ultimately chose to delete about Native Americans, and another declaring it would be an “honor” if the riots that swept the nation and left historical monuments toppled were named the “1619 Riots.” “The [1619 Project] published online today and it is my profound hope that we will reframe for our readers the way we understand our nation, the legacy of slavery, and most importantly, the unparalleled role black people have played in this democracy,” Hannah-Jones’ penned tweet posted on August 14, 2019 reads. Seven months later, the “1619 Project,” which has been promoted massively by The New York Times and which may be incorporated into some educational programs, was forced to issue a significant correction to one … [Read more...] about Creator Of 1619 Project: ‘Honor’ If Riots Called ‘1619 Riots’; Deletes Post On Native Americans Owning Slaves | The Daily Wire

Anne Applebaum, a staff writer for The Atlantic, claimed on Sunday that businesses in major cities across the U.S. are boarding up their windows ahead of election days because of President Donald Trump. Applebaum fired off her take on Twitter and garnered more than 32,000 likes and nearly 10,000 retweets on the post within 24 hours. “When conservatives celebrated Trump’s election 4 years ago, did they know that in 2020 we would board up shops, prepare for riots and the arrival of militias, game out ways he might steal the election, protest aggressive vote suppression? This is what he has done to America,” Applebaum said. “Plus gum up the US postal service, incite supporters to violence …” When conservatives celebrated Trump's election 4 years ago, did they know that in 2020 we would board up shops, prepare for riots and the arrival of militias, game out ways he might steal the election, protest aggressive vote suppression?

Todd and Julie Chrisley, stars of the reality show “Chrisley Knows Best” and its spinoffs, were once the picture of the American Dream: A beautiful home, a big family and a thriving business. But what the cameras didn’t show was an unfolding drama involving bank fraud, tax evasion and obstruction of justice. Todd was born in Georgia in 1969 and then grew up in Westminster, South Carolina. He married his high school sweetheart, Teresa Terry, and together they had two kids before divorcing in 1996. In the same year his divorce from Terry was finalized, Todd married Julie. He made a fortune through Chrisley Asset Management, a real estate company he founded in Georgia. The success of the business combined with Todd’s personality and large family made him a perfect candidate for reality TV. Even before the Chrisleys began their reality show in 2014, they had financial problems. In 2012, Todd filed for bankruptcy protection. Explaining the filing, his lawyer told People … [Read more...] about Reality Bites: The Rise And Fall Of The Chrisley Family Empire | The Daily Wire

Major projects to increase the United States’ manufacturing capacity for semiconductors have been put on hold as supporting legislation has been delayed in Congress . Many Asian economies implemented harsh lockdown measures in response to COVID, creating bottlenecks in the global semiconductor supply chain . As a result, American consumers and businesses have faced a shortage of products that require computer chips. Some automotive companies, for example, have been forced to limit or pause production, worsening inflationary pressures as vehicle prices surge at the highest rate in decades. In response, lawmakers proposed the $52 billion CHIPS for America Act. However, because the funding has not yet reached chipmakers, Intel, TSMC, and GlobalFoundries issued “public warnings” that they might “scale back their plans to make semiconductors” in the United States, according to the Department of Commerce . Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, for example, said at a recent panel event … [Read more...] about Plans For New Semiconductor Factories Across America Hit Major Roadblock | The Daily Wire
