Texas Tranny Teacher

Posted on | April 9, 2014 | 55 Comments

Say hello to Laura Jane Klug who, until quite recently, was Kurt Klug. In fact, as recently as July 2011, Kurt Klug was complaining on Facebook about the emotional turmoil caused by his wife leaving him. And so now, the divorced Kurt has decided to be “Laura Jane,” and wants to be a fifth-grade teacher in small-town Texas:

A transgender substitute teacher said she has been told she should not return to her classes, after parents complained about her.
Laura Jane Klug, who was born Kurt Klug, worked as a fifth grade substitute teacher at Lumberton Intermediate School, but was asked not to return after some of the students’ parents contacted the school.
Klug told 12 News that she met with a representative of Lumberton Independent School District’s Human Resources and Superintendent John Valastro Tuesday afternoon. Klug said they suspended her pending a decision by the school board on whether to continue using her as a substitute teacher.
Roger Beard, whose son was in the class Klug was subbing, said what concerns him is the distraction he believes a transgender teacher poses to ten and eleven year old children.
“If it does affect my child and his ability to learn or if it causes questions that I don’t feel are appropriate then undoubtedly there’s an issue with having somebody transgender, transsexual or transvestite, to be teaching that age group,” Beard said.
Klug said that she has substituted at the school without any issues before and she’s unsure what instigated the outrage.
“I have always conducted myself in a professional manner and would never discuss my gender identity in school,” Klug said.

The population of Lumberton is not quite 9,000 people.

You really need to read the report by David Bellow at Texas Conservative Republican, which includes comments from people on Facebook, e.g.: “Here is what a [Lumberton] teacher said yesterday at church: ‘He has 5 o’clock shadow and fake fingernails. The 5th grade class he was in spent more time staring at him than taking their test, so he was pulled out for hall duty.” We can expect LGBT activists to portray  Klug as a victim of bigotry, but common sense suggests that if your mid-life crisis involves a sex change, maybe “fifth-grade teacher in small Texas town” is not an ideal career choice.

Police: Child Welfare Official Exposed Himself to Teenage Girls at Hotel

Posted on | April 9, 2014 | 13 Comments

The victims of this weird crime “were staying at the hotel while attending the Nebraska Family, Career and Community Leaders of America state leadership conference” in Lincoln, Nebraska:

A director of a national child welfare center in Washington, D.C., was arrested and jailed Monday night for allegedly exposing himself to four teenage girls in a Lincoln hotel.
He was in town to help the state Department of Health and Human Services work on child welfare issues. . . .
Steven L. Preister, 68, was cited by police after allegedly confronting the girls as they exited a stairwell and began lecturing and yelling at them for being too loud. He allegedly followed them to their room and held the door open despite their attempts to close it — all while intoxicated and wearing nothing but a T-shirt, according to Katie Flood, a police officer with the Lincoln Police Department.
Police were called shortly before 10 p.m. to the Cornhusker Marriott Hotel, where four girls, ages 14 to 15, said they were confronted by Preister. Two adult chaperones and another hotel guest reportedly witnessed the incident.
The Washington, D.C., man is associate director of the National Child Welfare Resource Center for Organizational Improvement. He is listed as a faculty member at the Cutler Institute for Health and Social Policy at the Muskie School of Public Service, which “develops innovative approaches to pressing health and social challenges faced by individuals, families, and communities.”
Flood said Preister was in Lincoln to speak and provide assistance with child abuse investigations. Kathie Osterman, spokeswoman for the state Department of Health and Human Services, said Preister was recommended by the feds to give the state technical assistance.

House Democrats and the IRS Cover-Up

Posted on | April 9, 2014 | 19 Comments

Headline by Katie Pavlich at Townhall:

BREAKING: Emails Show Lois Lerner
Fed True the Vote Tax Information
to Democrat Elijah Cummings

Details from Eliana Johnson at National Review:

The war between Oversight Committee chairman Darrell Issa and the committee’s ranking member, Elijah Cummings, rages on.
Issa on Wednesday accused the Maryland Democrat of colluding with the Internal Revenue Service in its targeting of the conservative nonprofit group True the Vote . . .
In a letter signed by his five subcommittee chairmen, Issa raised the possibility that Cummings coordinated with the IRS, “surreptitiously” contacting the agency to request information about True the Vote.
E-mails unearthed in the course of Issa’s investigation into the IRS’s inappropriate targeting of right-leaning groups show that in January 2013, a member of Cummings’s staff contacted the IRS asking for any publicly available information on True the Vote. The matter was discussed by IRS officials that included Lois Lerner, the former exempt-organizations chief who retired in the wake of the targeting scandal. One of Lerner’s deputies, Holly Paz, subsequently sent the organization’s 990 forms to Cummings and his staff — not an illegal disclosure of taxpayer information, though sources say the exchange of such information was not routine.

More documents are available at the Oversight Committee web page. Remember what I said yesterday:

My interpretation is that Democrats who have repeated claims that there was no political bias in the IRS are essentially part of a cover-up effort. And make no mistake: There was (and still is) a cover-up.

Elijah Cummings is a corrupt liar. Which is to say, he is a Democrat.

Brandeis and Suicidal Liberalism

Posted on | April 9, 2014 | 23 Comments

Brandeis University has withdrawn an honorary degree for the courageous truth-teller Ayaan Hirsi Ali, because gutless lying liberals hate truth and courage. Bill Kristol is disgusted:

Brandeis University has in recent years bestowed an honorary degree on Tony Kushner, who called the creation of Israel as a Jewish state “a mistake” and who attacked Israel for ethnic cleansing and for causing “terrible peril in the world.” Brandeis has also honored Desmond Tutu, who compared Israel to Hitler, attacked the “Jewish lobby” as too “powerful” and “scary,” and complained of the “Jewish monopoly of the Holocaust.” . . .
Brandeis president Fred Lawrence came under “pressure” — i.e., received complaints from some students and whining from some faculty — and promptly caved. He has disinvited Ayaan Hirsi Ali from receiving an honorary doctorate this year.
His justification for caving was pathetic. Lawrence announced that “we cannot overlook certain of her past statements that are inconsistent with Brandeis University’s core values. For all concerned, we regret that we were not aware of these statements earlier.” Needless to say, he doesn’t specify any of these statements. And he doesn’t explain how Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s life and thought — but not Tony Kushner’s or Desmond Tutu’s — has been in any way “inconsistent with Brandeis University’s core values.”

Judge Scolds Brett Kimberlin

Posted on | April 9, 2014 | 59 Comments

ROCKVILLE, Maryland — Brett Kimberlin was scolded by a Montgomery County judge today for illegally altering a document in Kimberlin’s lawsuit against Aaron Walker and other bloggers.

Circuit Court Judge Joan E. Ryon verbally admonished Kimberlin after he admitted that he had fabricated evidence relating to his attempt to serve notice of the lawsuit on one of the defendants, conservative New Media actvisist Ali Akbar.

“Did you alter the document?” Judge Ryon asked Kimberlin, after he had attempted to excuse the fabrication of a post office record. When Kimberlin again attempted to avoid a direct answer, Judge Ryon said: “You’re not answering my question.”

Kimberlin then admitted that he had altered the document, but sought to excuse the error by pointing out that he is pursuing his suit against the bloggers on a pro se basis, acting as his own attorney. To that, Judge Ryon responded: “Don’t even use that with me.”

Kimberlin, a convicted bomber who became famous for claiming once to have sold marijuana to former Vice President Dan Quayle, is suing five bloggers in Maryland court, and has also filed a federal lawsuit against a total of 21 defendants, claiming that they have conspired against him for purposes of harassment.

Patrick Ostronic, attorney for defendants in the Maryland case, asked the court to sanction Kimberlin for altering a postal document previous submitted as evidence in preliminary filings. After Kimberlin admitted during Wednesday’s hearing that he had altered the document, Judge Ryon said she would not dismiss the case against Akbar, as Ostronic had asked, but said she would fine Kimberlin if she had statutory authority to do so. The judge called a recess to consult Maryland statutes, and returned to say she could find no authority for such a penalty. However, Judge Ryon sternly admonished Kimberlin about submitting altered documents.

Kimberlin filed the Maryland lawsuit seeking $1 million damages last September, and sued for $2 million in federal court in October. In the federal lawsuit, Kimberlin has admitted to forging a summons for Twitchy, a popular Twitter aggregation site started by syndicated columnist Michelle Malkin.

UPDATE: More from my co-defendant John Hoge.

Brett Kimberlin Insists

Posted on | April 9, 2014 | 16 Comments

‘Speedway Bomber’ Brett Kimberlin was sentenced to 50 years in 1981

“Plaintiff has been under siege by the Defendants for more than two years. They have been engaged in constant cyber bullying and cyber stalking of him and his family by using information and communication technologies to support deliberate, repeated, and hostile behavior to harm Plaintiff. He lives in constant fear for himself and his family because of the bullying and threats against him.”
— Kimberlin v. National Bloggers Club, et. al.

“”As a specimen of shamelessness, Brett Kimberlin has few equals in human history.”
— Robert Stacy McCain, Feb. 28

ROCKVILLE, Maryland
Despite the fact that Brett Kimberlin’s lawsuits have alleged that it is “harassment” and “stalking” for me to attend court hearings — the perjuring bomber fears for his life, he claims, at the mere thought of my proximity — Kimberlin actually wanted to subpoena me to appear in Montgomery County Circuit Court today.

The manifest absurdity of the Pro Se Pipsqueak’s claims in the Maryland Kimberlin v. Walker, et al., lawsuit have been self-evident from Day One, and yet the law requires us to take them seriously, so there will be a hearing this morning at which various motions will be heard. Kimberlin’s silly subpoena request was denied, but if my presence is so intimidating, why should I miss this opportunity to inflict “constant fear” on him? And speaking of which . . .

In July 2013, Brett Kimberlin’s wife filed for a domestic protective order against her husband, which I described at the time:

The estranged wife of progressive activist Brett Kimberlin says he has been “mentally abusive” to her, claiming in a Maryland court that Kimberlin has been “threatening” her and trying to get her fired from her job at a Montgomery County daycare center.
Tetyana Kimberlin, 32, sought a domestic protective order this week, saying her husband had “been going by my work and telling my employer I am going to be arrested,” and that Kimberlin, 59, “had me arrested before on false charges.”
Brett Kimberlin was convicted in 1981 for a weeklong series of Indiana bombings and sentenced to 50 years in federal prison, but served only 17 years. While imprisoned, Kimberlin became briefly famous during the 1992 election campaign by claiming to have once sold marijuana to then-Vice President Dan Quayle. Kimberlin is now director of two progressive non-profit groups, the 501c3 Justice Through Music Project and 501c4 Velvet Underground.
“He told me if I will try to take my kids with me he will hurt me and I will see what will happen to me,” Kimberlin’s Russian-born wife wrote in her petition for a protection order, a case that was heard Tuesday in Silver Spring, Maryland. “He tells my 14-year-old about his plans about me and what he is going to do with me.
Kimberlin has “been calling me terrible names … telling my children that I am mentally ill,” his wife wrote, saying she had been separated from him for seven months and now has a boyfriend, who also appeared in court Tuesday.

When a notorious convicted bomber’s estranged wife goes to court claiming that the violent felon is “threatening” her, that’s news. But covering this news is harassment and stalking, according to the bomber, and so I’ll be in court today, inspiring constant fear.

“Blinded By Delight”

Posted on | April 9, 2014 | 6 Comments

by Smitty

With apologies to Springsteen, and admiration for his lyrical density, here is some love for Eric Holder:

“Blinded By Delight”

Hippies Yippies Drippies and pinheads named Zippy with a Commie zampolit
In the dumps with these chumps as the environmentalist pumps his head all full of ‘it
With the border in disorder, due to Eric Holder, once again he’s Congress-bound
Where Louie Gohmert communicated butt-hurt as his integrity crashed to the ground
And for Trey Gowdy the sky was very cloudy due to prosecutorial discretion
Which for Eric was no fun, as his head gets so little sun, lodged in its position
And now young Scott with a bracelet for his 10-shot tried to excercise his rights
And some southpaw scofflaw shot him point-blank in the jaw–injustice that Holder delights

Eric was blinded by delight
He cut up like a schmuck, another goner on the right
Blinded by delight
He got down but he never got tight, he’ll get a pardon, alright

The bit about Scott is a hypothetical, built on the notion that these pissant laws only harming people who follow them, and strangely affecting the scofflaws not at all.

That is one long set of lyrics, though, and I wasn’t going to get much more than this done anytime soon.

Our country cannot be rid of this Holder cretin quickly enough. What a poster child for everything good people despise about political appointees.
