Many are struggling in this economy. My family is among them. Please support what we’re doing here and help us to continue to spread the truth Americans need to read and hear.
Everything is racist in the eyes of the “woke.” That’s the takeaway from dozens of major events that have taken place in the past couple of years. Whenever a person of color is treated in, well, any way at all, it is always racism that causes it based on progressive doctrine. Personal responsibility is the least woke thing imaginable.
The latest episode of “Was It Racist” took place yesterday as Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed a controversial election integrity bill into law. State Representative Park Cannon wanted to unlawfully enter the chambers, which were guarded by law enforcement. They were cordial but firm in their refusal to let her enter the chamber during a closed session, but she persisted. As soon as she pushed forward to knock on the door, they took her into custody.

Her supporters on the scene were quite perturbed. One asked how the Governor has more power than a Representative. But she was well aware that what she was doing was unlawful, and some have speculated she intended to get arrested to give her more publicity. Woke Twitter responded accordingly.
According to The Post Millennial:
According to Georgia State Patrol, representative Cannon was arrested for refusing orders that required her to stop knocking on the Governor’s door. “She was advised that she was disturbing what was going on inside and if she did not stop, she would be placed under arrest,” said GSP spokesman Lt. W. Mark Riley. “Rep. Cannon refused to stop knocking on the door.”
Court Documents indicate that Cannon was charged with “knowingly and intentionally” knocking on the governor’s door during a bill signing as well as repeatedly stomping on and officer’s foot.
Progressive activist Ben O’Keefe thought law enforcement was too aggressive.
Rep. Park Cannon was arrested for knocking on Brian Kemp’s door as he was signing an egregious voter suppression bill. This is disgusting. These officers had no right to arrest her or treat her so aggressively. They should face repercussions and Rep. Cannon must be released. pic.twitter.com/YueplkTu7I

Senator Jon Ossoff chimed in. He never misses an opportunity to chime in.

I stand with Georgia State Rep. Park Cannon (@Cannonfor58), who was arrested and CHARGED WITH A FELONY for … for what?
For *knocking on Gov. Kemp’s office door* as she tried to observe the cowardly closed-door signing ceremony for the voter suppression law. pic.twitter.com/hpp6ZQxo2r

CNN’s Don Lemon framed it as a voter suppression bill.
"This is the face of the fight for your right to vote."

Civil rights attorney Nora Benavidez invoked “Jim Crow” in describing the bill.
Officials arrested State Rep. Park Cannon a bit ago as she knocked on the door where the governor was signing a voter suppression bill into law. The bill was rushed thru GA, predicated on disinfo, & continues Jim Crow era tactics of oppression. https://t.co/98mx3L1Yvn

Democratic candidate Nabilah Islam went straight for the “racism” question.
One cannot help but think if they would have dragged a white woman this way.
Rep. Park Cannon is a sitting Georgia legislator and should never have been arrested in the first place.

Cannon was released a few hours later on bond.
Hey everyone, thank you for your support. I’ve been released from jail. I am not the first Georgian to be arrested for fighting voter suppression. I’d love to say I’m the last, but we know that isn’t true. #SB202

One can question the decision to arrest her, but let’s be very clear that there are zero indications that race played any role in the decision. Would a white male Representative have been arrested for the exact same actions? Based on the resolute manner the decision to arrest her was made, it seems clear that the preestablished trigger was an attempt to breach the chambers, in this case by knocking on the door against instructions from law enforcement. While there’s no way to test the theory, it seems obvious that a white male would have suffered the same fate.
When everything is painted as being racist, the argument loses its prominence. There is real racism in America, but playing the race card constantly prevents legitimate claims from being seen.
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our new GiveSendGo. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Truth Based Media
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
When preparing for societal collapse, don’t forget the water!
