White Power Wigderson

By Jeff Simpson

Charlie Sykes, when he was playing the part of far right Republican and helping get his friends, Scott Walker and David Clarke elected, started a website(Using JSonline resources) called - Right Wisconsin. 

Capper appropriately re-named them White Wisconsin.

Then when Charlie Sykes decided to change his stripes and play the part of thoughtful moderate, he gifted the website to James Wigderson.

Wiggy has run it with the same amount of racism, but has eliminated the search option and comments.  He is being paid to tell you what to think, not have a discussion.  Jimmy has never had much interest in a debate (or in minorities voting but that's another blog).  At least he knows his weaknesses.

Wigderson recently, tried to spin a tale of getting his son off to his senior year of high school. Which apparently is quite a feat.

First off, he takes his obligatory right wing shot at public education and then spins a yarn of overcoming all odds to come out of his school educated. 

Yes, it was possible for me to get a good education there, in part because I sought it out against the odds. I spent my lunch hour my senior year hanging out in the Social Studies study lounge and my other free time in the math department office. I rewrote my school schedule to eliminate gym class starting my sophomore year so I could take extra academic classes and managed to find a guidance counselor to sign the new schedule.
Somebody had to look out for my education.

Or more likely, the staff had to find a way to keep tabs on the weird white loner, who no one liked for the safety of all. 

Next he takes another shot at his old high school - Milwaukee Vincent.  Which has a DPI report card failing rate that looks like one of Zeus Rodriguez's charter schools. 

The school has only gotten worse since my days there. The school “fails to meet expectations” according to the state of Wisconsin’s Department of Public Instruction and it’s not even close. Yet nothing will be done about Vincent and 999 kids will be trapped in a failing school this year. Some students will succeed but the odds are horribly against them. But at least it’s a union school, right?

Now that Wiggy has set it up, it is time for the full blown racist punchline.

So imagine my surprise when, thanks to the Facebook page for an upcoming high school reunion, I learned the school is getting a new $5.7 million stadium. The stadium will have artificial grass and a new track for WIAA events. The report I saw didn’t mention metal detectors, but it would be a good idea.
The new stadium is part of an $11 million improvement in athletic facilities for Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS), presumably so the little convicts can have the best facilities before being sent to the penitentiary.

Overlooking the fact that the new stadium for his old high school has been reported on extensively in the news, the kicker is this line. 

The new stadium is part of an $11 million improvement in athletic facilities for Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS), presumably so the little convicts can have the best facilities before being sent to the penitentiary.

Yes all athletes in the Milwaukee Public Schools are convicts...well at least all black athletes anyway.   

Wiggy when posting this garbage, linked to this story about a black basketball player at Milwaukee Washington who committed armed robbery but was still allowed to play in the tournament. 

I would explain to Wiggy that Basketball at Milwaukee Washington and Football/Track at Milwaukee Vincent are completely different.  I would also explain that one case, with one athlete of thousands, is hardly representative of all student athletes regardless of color.    However, I do not think he would get it, or even come close to getting it. 

It is important to meet people where they are at so I would approach Wiggy with the understanding, that just because you commit one illegal act that does not define you for the rest of your life. 

Even when it shows a serious pattern of racism. 

So It Begins......

We warned you recently, that if we elect and continue to worship far right wing lunatics, that there will be no place for anyone in America, but people in the Aryan race.

Since we posted the story of a "Black Lives Matter" protester being assaulted at a Trump rally, Donald Trump himself came out and said the guy "deserved it".

"Maybe he should have been roughed up because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing," Trump said Sunday morning on Fox News, less than 24 hours after his campaign said it "does not condone" the physical altercation.

Unfortunately for America, it did not stop there.  The White Supremacy crowd that has been unleashed with this Republican Presidential primary, showed up in Minneapolis last night:

 Five protesters were shot late Monday night near the Black Lives Matter encampment at the Fourth Precinct police station in north Minneapolis, according to police.Those who were shot sustained non-life-threatening injuries, said police spokesman John Elder in a statement.
Miski Noor, a media contact for Black Lives Matter, said “a group of white supremacists showed up at the protest, as they have done most nights.”
One of the three counterdemonstrators wore a mask, said Dana Jaehnert, who had been at the protest site since early evening.
When about a dozen protesters attempted to herd the group away from the area, Noor said, they “opened fire on about six protesters,” hitting five of them. Jaehnert said she heard four gunshots

Buckle up America, this is only the beginning.

 

A quick update on the guy who was assaulted and Trump felt was handled appropriately:

 “It was just a sea of white faces,” he told ThinkProgress. “A lady kicked me in the stomach. A man kicked me in the chest. They called me n*****, monkey, and they shouted ‘all lives matter’ while they were kicking and punching me. So for all the people who are still confused at this point, they proved what ‘all lives matter’ meant. It means, ‘Shut up, n*****.'”On Sunday, the morning after the rally, Trump told the hosts of Fox & Friends that Southall deserved what he got.
“Maybe he should have been roughed up,” he said. “It was disgusting what he was doing…This was a very obnoxious guy, a troublemaker, looking to make trouble.”

Ladies and Gentleman --- your 2015 Republican Party. Reince must be proud!
