New in PJ Media:
When a large chorus of boos greeted Taylor Swift at the Super Bowl, her response summed up what many leftists are likely thinking after Donald Trump has come into the Oval Office like a whirlwind and started systematically dismantling the corrupt machine they have been using for decades to exercise hegemony over the political and cultural spheres.
A year ago, the much-heralded young chanteuse wielded so much influence (or was assumed to wield so much influence) that according to a Monmouth poll, nearly one in five Americans actually believed that she was part of a deep state effort to help Old Joe Biden win reelection. When Swift eventually endorsed Kamala Harris, the New York Times hailed her as “one of America’s most celebrated pop-culture icons” and noted that she had “an enormous following across the world.” Swift’s endorsement, the Times said, “offers Ms. Harris an unrivaled celebrity backer and a tremendous shot of adrenaline to her campaign, especially with the younger voters she has been trying to attract.”
As it turned out, the shot of adrenaline turned out to be a fizzle, and by Super Bowl Sunday, Swift didn’t seem to be much of a celebrated pop-culture icon at all. The New York Post reported Monday that “after being caught off guard by the harsh reception to her presence, the singer turned to her pal and rapper Ice Spice in the VIP box. ‘What’s going on?’ the ‘Fortnight’ singer, who was at the game to cheer on boyfriend Travis Kelce, was seen saying on the scoreboard in response to the boos.”
“What’s going on?” Indeed. In three words, Taylor Swift could have written the epitaph of the left’s cultural hegemony. Leftists over the last three weeks have been bewildered by how quickly their fortunes have taken a downturn. As Rich Lowry noted, “A blitz of executive orders issued by President Donald Trump have taken dead aim at left-wing cultural priorities and pillars of the left’s cultural influence. Fashionable progressive ideas that have long been ascendant, including DEI and gender ideology, have received hammer blows since Trump’s inauguration, and there’s more to come.” Much, much more to come, we hope.
And it has all happened in the blink of an eye. Trump’s extraordinarily active first three weeks have left more than just Taylor Swift blinking their eyes in disbelief and muttering, “What’s going on?” Not too very long ago, the left’s lunatic ideas, including the insistence that some makeup, a wig, and some hormone shots could transform a man into a woman, were ruthlessly enforced. The social media giants relentless and unapologetically deplatformed and silenced dissidents from the left’s agenda, including Donald Trump himself.
There is more. Read the rest here.

President Trump needs to hammer at Islam and its Muslims for their terrorism, discrimination, and violence taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Quran. Islam is a violent threat to America, Europe, and the world as taught in the Quran. Trump should classify Islam as a Muslim Terrorist Criminal Organization.
Like a Foreign Terrorist Organization(FTO) designated by the USA Secretary of State, Islam is a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION(MTO) against Non-Muslims and NOT A PEACEFUL RELIGION UNDER WESTERN LAWS because Islam funds, teaches, and promotes a Terrorist, Criminal Organization with Muslims as Terrorists for Allah(Quran 2:216; 4:95; 8:12,39,74; 9:5,29,41,49, 21:921; 88,111,123;21:92; 49:15 and more). More specifically, Islam is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Murderous, Criminal Enterprise of Intolerance, continuous war, discrimination, segregation, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, propaganda, deceit, hatred, incitement, sedition, rape, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran.
Non-Muslims CANNOT have peace with Islam and its Muslims because Islam and its murderous god, Allah, demand a continuous Muslim war, a religious duty, against unbelievers where Non-Muslims are CRIMINALS under Islam when Allah in Qur’an 8:39 says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” HENCE, NON-MUSLIMS MUST MAKE ISLAM, ITS MOSQUES, ITS SCHOOLS, ITS ORGANIZATIONS, ETC. ILLEGAL UNDER THE LAW. Similarly, Islam and its many Organizations must be identified and publicly declared to be MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS for their funding, teaching, and support of terrorism, violence, and discrimination against Non-Muslims(eg. Quran 9:5,29,111 and more).
The FRUIT of Islam is incessant WAR, terrorism, discrimination, slavery, malice, ISLAMIZATION, and violence against all Non-Muslims; this FACT must be taught and broadcast to the general public to prohibit Islam, its Mosques, its Courts, and its Schools. Also, Islam is an Antichrist System terrorizing Israel, Christians, and Non-Muslims(Quran 3:54; 5:51 and more). Plus, there is NO EQUALITY UNDER THE LAW in Islam or in Islamic Law(Quran 5:51; 9:29; 98:6-7 and more). In Sahih Bukhari(V6,B60,N80), Abu Huraira narrates, “‘You(Muslims) are the best of peoples ever raised for mankind.’ means, the best of peoples for the people, as you bring them[Non-Muslims] with chains on their necks till they embrace Islam[see Quran 3:110].” See also Quran 3:22,151; 69:30-32; 98:6.
Western Muslims seek to expand Islam’s legality into the West’s Legal Systems and to advance Islam’s totalitarian, discriminatory goals to conquer the West. Consequently, Islam promotes a limitless, terroristic, Muslim war against unbelievers when Allah in Qur’an 49:15 says, “Surely the believers are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed JIHAD with THEIR MONEY AND THEIR LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.”

Given how she has lost half her audience, she could move from writing songs about bad dates to writing songs about how wonderful LGBTQ+, BIPOC racism, communism all are. I’m sure that her remaining fans would be thrilled!

It’s too bad, she’s not the worst woke celeb and probably got bad advice along the way. However celebs should just keep their mouths shut and do us all a favor so we don’t have to waste our time talking about them.

I am from Philadelphia originally. All i have to say to Taylor Twit is the same thing the Eagle fans were saying when they burned the Charger jersey.
Troybeam says
Taylor Swift like Miliey Cyrus after turning 21 or 18 left the teeny music and went into “you can no longer tell me what to produce or what video’s content has to be mode” openly exposing their political views and relationships to the world. Bottom line is nobody gives a crap and their bank accounts will dwindle over time from lack of sales or concert attendance.
