Al’s Afternoon Tea: Ellen DeGeneres Flees to England, High School Girls Compared to Nazis for Wanting to Protect Female Sports

By Al Perrotta Published on November 21, 2024

Welcome back in for Al’s Afternoon Tea, our chance to stop and savor some of the latest news.

It looks like the U.S still has to get the crazies out of the system. But first, some breaking news:

Matt Gaetz Has Withdrawn His Name for Consideration as Attorney General

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz has announced he is withdrawing his name for consideration as Attorney General. Gaetz, who struck fear in the heart of the politically corrupted DOJ, had been the target of constant smears, and was destined for a long, drawn out, wicked confirmation fight. Gaetz said he didn’t want to be a “distraction” from  the crucial work of the incoming Trump-Vance administration.

Ellen Flees to England Because of Trump, Is “Never Coming Back”

Finally, a celebrity who actually made good on their promise and left the country! According to The Wrap, Ellen DeGeneres and spouse Portia De Rossi have fled to Great Britain primarily due to Donald Trump’s reelection, with Ellen insisting to friends that she’s “never coming back.”

What place could be more welcoming to a lesbian comedian than one overrun by radical Islamists, where the government is currently cracking down on free speech?

Ellen, who made a fortune from her “nice” persona, ended her once-popular daytime show after staffers revealed the horrible, toxic atmosphere she created behind the scenes.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett Launches Racist Rant Against “White Men”

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) spent her Wednesday launching a racist rant against “white men” during a congressional hearing on the Dismantle DEI Act. 

“You can then misuse words like ‘oppression,'” she said. “There has been no oppression for the white man in this country. You tell me which white man was dragged out of their homes. You tell me which white man got dragged all the way across an ocean and told that you are gonna go and work, we are gonna steal your wives, we are gonna rape your wives. That didn’t happen. That is oppression!”

What is she trying to accomplish? Angling for Joy Reid’s job on MSNBC?

Seriously, the hundreds of thousands of white men who gave their lives to end that oppression in the Civil War might have some thoughts on the matter. And Crockett herself is soooooo oppressed that she was forced to become a rare member of the United States Congress, pocketing a six-figure salary. Texas’s 30th congressional district, which includes parts of Dallas, is 16% white, 35% Hispanic, and 42% black.

Federal Judge: Women-Only Nude Spa Akin to Whites-Only Facilities

The transgender activists are not happy about a women’s-only nude spa run by Koreans in Seattle. The biological men who want to invade that space filed a lawsuit and won. The owners of Olympus Spa appealed, and unfortunately, ran into a woke judge.  

During an appeal hearing Monday, Judge Margaret McKeown compared the spa’s women’s only policy to the “whites only” facilities of the Jim Crow South.

“If you have a law that says, ‘white applicants only,’ this is ‘biological women entrance only.’ It seems to me they’re quite parallel there,” McKeown said. “And you can’t have ‘white people only’ come into my restaurant, and then you say, ‘Well, no, we have a religious, spiritual nature to our restaurant, and when you get there, we serve you special food.’ This seems quite different.”

“It’s not really ‘biological women are welcome,’” the judge said. “ It means nonbiological women are not welcome.’”

What it actually means is that the judge has no problem with grown men walking around naked among women and girls as young as 13.  

California School Official: “Save Girls Sports” Shirt = Swastika

Two female high school cross-country runners and their families are suing a California school district after administrators allegedly equated their “Save Girls Sports” and “It’s Common Sense: XX ≠ XY” T-shirts with the Nazi swastika.

Taylor and Kaitlyn, whose last names are being withheld because they are minors, took to wearing the shirts after one lost her spot on the varsity team to a transgender boy she alleges didn’t regularly attend practices or meet eligibility requirements. The biological male transferred in from another school, where he had already broken the all-time record for the girl’s cross-country team.

Wearing the shirts, the school declared, was like wearing a swastika in front of Jewish students.

Yep. If a girl loses her prized spot on the team to a dude and wears a T-shirt that expresses that girls’ sports should be for girls, she’s a Brown Shirt. Advocates for Faith and Freedom are representing the girls and their families in the suit, claiming the school’s actions violate the young ladies’ First and Fourteenth Amendments rights.

Let’s talk about the irony, though. We saw what happened on high school and college campuses last year. If the girls had waved a banner declaring “From the River to the Sea” in front of Jewish students, the school wouldn’t have done a thing to punish them.

SHHHHH: Joe Biden Secretly Awards Medal of Freedom to Former Planned Parenthood Boss Cecile Richards

What if we told you the White House held a secret ceremony celebrating human sacrifice? Maybe you’d say, “Even Alex Jones wouldn’t buy that conspiracy theory. It sounds like something out of a Halloween horror movie.” Unfortunately – and sickeningly  – it is true.

On Wednesday, Joe Biden secretly awarded the Medal of Freedom to former Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards. It was so secret that even Joe Biden didn’t know about it until after it was over. (Okay, that’s a joke.) However, it’s no joke that the ceremony was not on Biden’s schedule, nor was the media allowed to cover it, and the White House did not even announce it until after it was done.

If you appreciate The Stream archives, please consider supporting the outreaches of LIFE.

Biden said Richards “carved an inspiring legacy that endures in her incredible family, the countless lives she has made better, and a nation seeking the light of equality, justice and freedom.” That’s not how pro-lifers see it, though. She oversaw the torture, murder, and dismemberment of precious babies.

But kudos to the White House writers for the masterful trick of turning an abortion peddler into Superman.
