<p>The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is once again reaping the rewards of its own woke rulebook, as a top panel just recommended <em>nullifying</em> the election that handed radical anti-gun activist-turned-party operative David Hogg a vice-chair seat. Why? Because the vote may not have been &#8220;fair&#8221; to women.</p>



<p>You can’t make this up.</p>



<p>At the heart of the mess is a challenge from Oklahoma Democratic Committeewoman Kalyn Free, who lost out to Hogg and Pennsylvania State Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta in February’s vote. Free claims the DNC’s push for “gender balance”—a staple of the left’s DEI orthodoxy—was violated when the vote was streamlined to save time. In the rush to wrap up a marathon voting session, the party opted to vote for two vice-chairs at once instead of holding separate votes. That maneuver, Free argues, gave the two remaining male candidates—Hogg and Kenyatta—an unfair advantage.</p>



<p>Ironically, it was the party’s own rigid gender-quota rules that supposedly <em>required</em> electing at least one man to maintain equity. But now, in a stunning turn of events, the DEI Frankenstein the Democrats created has come to devour its creators.</p>



<p>The DNC Credentials Committee agreed Monday evening that the vote was, in their words, “incomplete.” Their recommendation? Throw the whole thing out and do it over, meaning Hogg and Kenyatta may soon be booted from their positions.</p>



<p>The vote isn’t final until the full DNC weighs in, but the signal is clear: the Democratic Party is eating itself alive in an identity-politics-driven meltdown.</p>



<p>Naturally, the fallout is already brewing into a civil war. Hogg, never one to miss a moment for martyrdom, said the dispute “looms large” over his efforts to “reform the party,” casting himself as a victim of the DNC’s refusal to embrace his progressive crusade—like challenging incumbent Democrats from the left.</p>



<p>“I ran to be DNC Vice Chair to help make the Democratic Party better, not to defend an indefensible status quo,” Hogg declared, as though his own position wasn’t awarded through the same convoluted system he’s now condemning.</p>



<p>Kenyatta, meanwhile, took the recommendation personally, calling it “a slap in my face,” and insisted he “worked [his] a&#8211; off” to get there. He also tried to distance himself from Hogg, saying, “This story is complex&#8230; but it’s not about [David Hogg]. Even though he clearly wants it to be.”</p>



<p>It’s a full-blown circus.</p>



<p>New DNC Chair Ken Martin tried to downplay the drama, chalking it up to a simple “procedural error.” But a three-hour virtual meeting and a deadlocked committee vote tell a different story—one of dysfunction, finger-pointing, and a party in disarray.</p>



<p>In the end, the resolution passed 13–5, calling for a new election “as soon as practicable,” leaving the future of Hogg and Kenyatta up in the air. Both can run again—but given how quickly the party turns on its own, they might want to think twice.</p>



<p>This is the Democratic Party’s DEI doctrine in action: a tangled web of quotas, identity boxes, and impossible-to-navigate rules designed more for optics than outcomes. Now it’s backfiring publicly, and the people it was meant to empower are left holding the bag.</p>



<p>Welcome to the diversity disaster.</p>

<p>Abortion was the leading cause of death worldwide in 2024, with an estimated 45 million unborn babies lost to abortion, according to data compiled by Worldometer.</p>



<p>By December 31, 2024, approximately 45.1 million abortions had been performed throughout the year, Worldometer revealed. This figure far surpassed deaths from other causes, such as cancer (8.2 million), smoking (5 million), HIV/AIDS (1.7 million), traffic accidents (1.35 million), and suicide (1.1 million).</p>



<p>When combined, deaths from all non-abortion causes totaled 62.5 million, meaning abortions accounted for over 42 percent of all global deaths in 2024. Remarkably, deaths from abortion exceeded those from cancer, malaria, HIV/AIDS, smoking, alcohol, and traffic accidents combined.</p>



<p>Worldometer—recognized by the American Library Association as one of the best free reference websites—maintains a real-time tally of significant global statistics, including population changes, births, deaths, and environmental data. The platform’s abortion statistics are derived from the World Health Organization’s most recent data.</p>



<p>The staggering number of lives lost to abortion has prompted some to label it “the social justice issue of our time,” citing its overwhelming scale compared to other human rights concerns.</p>



<p>In the United States, abortion constitutes roughly a third of all annual deaths. The numbers are even more troubling within the African American community, where abortion accounts for over 60 percent of deaths, as highlighted in a 2016 study published in the Open Journal of Preventive Medicine.</p>



<p>Rev. Clenard Childress, Jr., a prominent pastor, has described the prevalence of abortion in the black community as a “black genocide.” He noted that 52 percent of all African American pregnancies end in abortion and criticized the procedure for being “the least regulated medical practice,” often overlooked by health authorities.</p>



<p>Statistics show nearly 1,800 unborn black babies are aborted daily in the U.S., making them disproportionately affected compared to other racial groups. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), black women have the highest abortion rate among all demographics, at 24.4 abortions per 1,000 women, compared to just 5.7 per 1,000 among white women.</p>



<p>The CDC also reported that black babies are more than four times as likely to be aborted as white babies. For every 1,000 live births, there are 429 abortions among black women compared to 106 among white women. This equates to over 39 percent of all U.S. abortions being performed on black babies, even though African Americans represent only 12.4 percent of the U.S. population.</p>



<p>In contrast, white Americans, who make up 61.6 percent of the population, account for just 31.9 percent of abortions. This stark disparity has led critics to assert that abortion functions as a racially biased institution in the United States, disproportionately affecting black communities.</p>

<p>Comedian Bill Maher voiced strong criticism of college students on Friday, targeting those participating in pro-Palestine protests for neglecting Iran’s severe oppression of women. On his show, &#8220;Real Time with Bill Maher,&#8221; he accused these student demonstrators of supporting regimes that &#8220;ruthlessly oppress women.&#8221;</p>



<p>&#8220;Well, now that summer is here and Hamas-backing college protesters have dispersed back to their summer internships at Goldman Sachs, I thought it might be a good time to say this,&#8221; Maher began. &#8220;I actually admire your youthful idealism, and our world would be poorer without it. Much like your parents, who just wasted 300 grand on that ignorance factory you call a college.&#8221;</p>



<p>He continued by expressing sympathy for the students’ lack of proper education and moral clarity, attributing their confusion to &#8220;shitty schools, overindulgent parents, social media, that priest who rubbed lotion on you.&#8221; Despite his critique, Maher acknowledged their impulse to seek a cause larger than themselves, though he argued they have &#8220;missed the boat by a f***ing mile.&#8221;</p>



<p>Maher suggested that these protesters focus on real &#8220;apartheid,&#8221; which he claimed they have misidentified with Israel. He pointed out the hypocrisy in supporting causes that overlook the plight of women in Middle Eastern countries, particularly in Iran, where women face severe oppression.</p>



<p>&#8220;Naturally, when you heard that Israel was an ‘apartheid state,’ it gave you such a boner, you literally pitched a tent,&#8221; Maher said sarcastically. He reminded his audience of the historical context of racial apartheid in South Africa and proposed that students redirect their activism toward the &#8220;hundreds of millions of women&#8221; in the Middle East who suffer under gender apartheid.</p>



<p>&#8220;When you mandate that one category of human beings don’t even have the right to show their face, that’s apartheid,&#8221; Maher asserted. He highlighted the ongoing struggles of Iranian women, who have been vocally protesting against mandatory hijabs and other oppressive practices.</p>



<p>Maher recounted the tragic story of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman who died in police custody in Iran after being arrested for improperly wearing her hijab. Her death sparked widespread protests and calls for justice within Iran.</p>



<p>&#8220;This is an apartheid that desperately needs your attention. Gender apartheid,&#8221; Maher emphasized. &#8220;This is what should be the social justice issue of your time. How about, ‘From the river to the sea, every woman shall be free.’&#8221;</p>



<p>In his critique, Maher urged student activists to broaden their focus and address the more pressing issues of gender oppression in countries like Iran, rather than fixating solely on Israel.</p>

<p>During a recent comedy set at The Laugh Factory in Chicago, comedian Josh Ocean Thomas humorously criticized an audience member who claimed to work for the Biden administration.&nbsp;</p>



<p>In the now-viral Instagram clip, Thomas responded, &#8220;What a s&#8212; show of a job you have!&#8221; as the audience laughed. He continued joking with &#8220;Nick,&#8221; the Biden staffer, asking if his role was to &#8220;wake [Biden] up.&#8221;</p>



<p>Imitating a staffer trying to get the president&#8217;s attention, Thomas said, &#8220;Hey! Hey! Hey! There&#8217;s a war! Hey!&#8221; The comedian continued by telling Nick he could have lied about his job and joked, &#8220;You could have said you were a hooker, and I would’ve been prouder of you.&#8221;</p>



<p>Nick began explaining that he travels to southern states for his role, prompting Thomas to respond with laughter, &#8220;That&#8217;s crazy! You go to the south and try to sell &#8217;em on Biden?&#8221; He ended the bit by jokingly asking, &#8220;Are you ready to be unemployed?&#8221;</p>



<p>Thomas captioned his Instagram post, &#8220;This was my only option.&#8221;</p>



<p>He wasn&#8217;t the only comedian to poke fun at Biden recently. Michael Rapaport, known for his anti-Trump stance, shared a video on X (formerly Twitter), where he criticized Biden&#8217;s decision not to supply Israel with weapons if it invades Rafah.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Rapaport declared he would no longer support Biden, saying, &#8220;Smoking Joe Biden. Cadaver Joe Biden. I never thought I would say this. I&#8217;m not voting for you. You&#8217;re not getting my vote.&#8221;</p>

<p>A GoFundMe campaign designed to celebrate a group of fraternity members from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has garnered over $230,000. These members of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity stood up against an anti-Israel group that attempted to take down the American flag. The funds are being raised to organize a party for the fraternity, one they’ve rightfully earned through their actions.</p>



<p>The fundraising page proudly describes the group as the &#8220;boat-shoed Broleteriat who did their country proud,&#8221; and aims to host a party &#8220;worthy&#8221; of their courage. The description on the page reads: &#8220;Help us raise funds to throw this frat the party they deserve, a party worth of the boat-shoed Broleteriat who did their country proud.&#8221;</p>



<p>This incident occurred at Polk Place in the University of North Carolina on May 1, 2024, where the American flag was temporarily surrounded by barriers. The fundraiser paints a vivid picture of the scene: &#8220;Amidst the chaos, the screaming, the anti-semitism, the hatred of faith and flag, stood a platoon of American heroes. Armored in Vineyard Vines and Patagonia, fueled by Zyn and White Claws, these triumphant Brohemians protected Old Glory from the unwashed Marxist horde.&#8221;</p>

The Old East dormitory is visible in the background. Caroline Culler, Wiki Commons</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>The situation escalated when anti-Israel protesters removed the American flag from its pole and replaced it with the Palestinian flag. UNC-Chapel Hill Chancellor Lee H. Roberts intervened to rehoist the American flag. However, the protests continued, and attempts were made once more to take down the flag.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">(Thread) Today was a sad yet empowering day at Chapel Hill.

</div></figure>



<p>Guillermo Estrada, one of the fraternity brothers involved, recounted, &#8220;We ran over to hold it up, in order for it not to touch the ground.&#8221; As they held the flag, they faced hostility as protesters threw water bottles, rocks, and sticks at them.</p>



<p>The fraternity&#8217;s actions have not gone unnoticed, earning accolades from several lawmakers including Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA), Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL), and Rep. Lisa McClain (R-MI), all commending the students for their bravery in the face of opposition.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style='display:none;' class='shareaholic-canvas' data-app='share_buttons' data-title='‘Woke capitalism’: Microsoft admits it pays white workers less than minorities' data-link='https://patriotvibe.com/2024/02/26/woke-capitalism-microsoft-admits-it-pays-white-workers-less-than-minorities/' data-app-id-name='category_above_content'></div>
<p>Microsoft has come under scrutiny for highlighting in its latest diversity report that it compensates its white employees less than its racial minority counterparts in comparable positions. The report draws attention to the fact that Asian staff members receive higher compensation than both Black and White employees, holding similar job titles, levels, and experience.</p>



<p>In its 2023 Diversity and Inclusion Report, Microsoft champions its commitment to &#8220;pay equity,&#8221; revealing that racial minorities eligible for rewards receive $1.007 in total compensation for every dollar that white employees earn in the same roles. The report details that Black and African American employees are paid $1.004, while Asian employees receive $1.012 for each dollar earned by their white colleagues with equivalent job titles, levels, and experience.</p>



<p>The document explains that the figures reflect total compensation, encompassing base salary, annual bonuses, and stock awards. Additionally, the report highlights Microsoft&#8217;s efforts to embed progressive ideologies within its workforce, with 96.4 percent of employees acknowledging some level of understanding of &#8220;allyship.&#8221;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">HOLY SHLIT. In Microsoft&#39;s official 2023 Diversity &amp; Inclusion report, they openly admit that they are paying white people LESS than other ethnic groups in the name of &quot;pay equity.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/cJLoYeBfBo">pic.twitter.com/cJLoYeBfBo</a></p>&mdash; Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) <a href="https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1760817144781021650?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 23, 2024</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



<p>This approach to compensation aligns with a broader trend among major corporations to emphasize diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives over the principle of equality. A notable example includes Disney, which faced a federal civil rights complaint accusing the company of basing employee bonuses on diversity metrics. The complaint charges Disney with intentional discrimination against white American men, Christians, and Jews based on their race, sex, and religion.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Microsoft-Store-min-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-6470" srcset="https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Microsoft-Store-min-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Microsoft-Store-min-300x169.jpg 300w, https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Microsoft-Store-min-768x432.jpg 768w, https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Microsoft-Store-min-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Microsoft-Store-min.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Turag Photography via Unsplash.</figcaption></figure>



<p>The complaint was lodged by America First Legal, as reported by Breitbart News. The organization, led by Stephen Miller, a former official in the Trump administration, criticized Disney&#8217;s shift from its historically family-friendly image to one promoting &#8220;divisive bigotry.&#8221; Miller called for Disney to halt these practices immediately.</p>



<p>Breitbart News pledges to continue its coverage of the impact of DEI initiatives and the broader implications of what it terms &#8220;woke capitalism.&#8221;</p>

<p>The King Arthur Baking Company has announced a woke initiative named &#8220;Baking Pitchfest 2024,&#8221; a competition aimed at offering a unique opportunity for bakeries to receive not only financial backing but also mentorship from established professionals in the field. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Flour-Store-min-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-8142" srcset="https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Flour-Store-min-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Flour-Store-min-300x169.jpg 300w, https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Flour-Store-min-768x432.jpg 768w, https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Flour-Store-min-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://patriotvibe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Flour-Store-min.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><em>Shelves of flour products inside the King Arthur Baking Company store, Norwich, Vermont. Kenneth C. Zirkel, Wiki Commons.</em></figcaption></figure>



<p>&#8220;Baking Pitchfest 2024&#8221; is distinguished by a specific eligibility criterion: it is exclusively open to bakeries owned by “people of color.” Kathleen Casanova, speaking to Baking Business, highlighted the event&#8217;s role in “empowering People of Color to break barriers and redefine the narrative in baking.”</p>



<p>This initiative is part of King Arthur’s supposed broader goal to promote inclusivity and innovation in the baking community. Molly Lawrence, the company&#8217;s corporate social responsibility manager, emphasized this commitment, stating that “Pitchfest 2024 is a testament to our commitment to fostering a more inclusive baking community and empowering creative POC leaders in the industry.” This approach seeks to address and rectify the underrepresentation of people of color in the baking sector.</p>

<p>The decision to limit participation to non-white bakers has been a point of contention, with many who are not racist viewing it as a necessary step towards achieving inclusivity, while others perceive it as exclusionary. The organizers of Baking Pitchfest have claimed that this move is about more than just a competition; it&#8217;s about creating a platform that empowers bakers of color and aims to “increase racial and ethnic diversity in the field.”</p>



<p>This move by King Arthur Baking Co. comes years after the Quaker Oats Company’s Aunt Jemima products were canceled and replaced with the vanilla “Pearl Milling Company,” throwing Aunt Jemima, a Black woman, off of their branding. Other companies, such as Land O’Lakes, banished a Native American woman from its packaging, while Uncle Ben’s rice products are being stricken of the Black emblazoned on its signature orange boxes.&nbsp;</p>
