Wife slammed for telling other women to date rich men

This advice is not uncommon but is not really smart. Very rich men tend to be spoilt and sometimes go broke so are not a good target. A well-off but not super-rich man would probably be a better deal. And you might actually get real affection with it. Real affection beats any number of helicopter rides (etc.)

A self-proclaimed “femininity influencer” is being slammed online for her advice to women they should only date men who are cashed up.

Digs like “gold digger,” “delusional” and “money dog,” are being savagely slingshotted at a self-crowned femininity influencer after she advised women to aviod dating “broke men”.

Sofia Kralow praised her husband for his deep pockets and went viral recently for encouraging women against dating guys without cash but her unsolicited advice just isn’t clicking with keyboard critics.

“Daily reminder to never date broke men,” urged TikTok tastemaker Sofia Kralow, based in Dubai, in the on-screen text of her controversial clip, New York Post reported.

The trending footage, which has stacked up over 1.3 million views, features the brunette being lavished with helicopter rides, designer accessories, luxury cars and wads of cash via husband Thomas Kralow, an affluent hedge fund manager and YouTuber.

“Raise your standards,” she penned in the caption, punctuating her pearls of wisdom with hashtags such as “#PrincessTreatment,” “#Goals,” and “#Millionaire.”

As a finishing touch, Kralow — who, in other clips, unabashedly flaunts the posh perks of being a wealthy man’s wife such as hulking bouquets of roses, exotic vacations, enviable spa treatments and fistfuls of dough — topped off the post with a remixed sound bite of rapper Latto coquettishly saying, “Thank you to my man”.

But rather than being dazzled by her glamorous trappings, women were disappointed in Kralow’s presumed financial dependence.

“No thanks I rather have my own money and be in love,” wrote a self-sufficient naysayer in the comments.

The Left’s Desperate Attempt To Deflect on Crime

In recent weeks, the Biden administration and its allies in the corporate media have been attempting to deflect attention from America’s ongoing crime crisis. Exhibit A: an article by the impulsively liberal Axios titled “GOP’s crumbling case against Biden on crime.”

This comes on the heels of a similarly vacuous “report” by Third Way, which acknowledged that there is a homicide problem, but claimed it is actually in “red states” that voted for former President Donald Trump.

The truth is that crime rates have been rising in blue cities since 2016 because of progressive, pro-criminal, anti-police policies. And when you remove the progressive-run blue cities from the equation, states’ relative rankings on homicide change dramatically, disproving Third Way’s attempt to blame red-state governors.

Regular Americans, especially the minorities who often live the reality of high crime rates every day, don’t believe the liberal media’s lies. Indeed, they know whom to blame: blue-city prosecutors and, more specifically, George Soros-funded or -inspired prosecutors.

As we pointed out in a recent paper, 27 of the 30 cities with the highest murder rates are run by Democrats. And 14 of those cities—accountable for 68% of the homicides—have rogue district attorneys backed or inspired by Mr. Soros.

Those prosecutors have enacted pro-criminal, anti-victim policies, as we explain in detail in our book, “Rogue Prosecutors: How Radical Soros Lawyers Are Destroying America’s Communities.”

Which raises the question: Why the constant drumbeat and attempt to flip the narrative?

Answer: Because the left knows that it is its policies that have led to the increase in crime in most cities since 2016 and now they are politically vulnerable. In poll after poll after poll after poll, the issue of crime is on voters’ minds, just behind the economy.

And no one believes for one second that Republicans, independents or law-and-order Democrats support pro-criminal, anti-victim, police-hating policies … because they don’t.

Indeed, even liberal Democrats in San Francisco and Baltimore threw out their rogue prosecutors, Chesa Boudin and Marilyn Mosby respectively, in recent elections because of skyrocketing crime rates in their cities.

And the first Soros rogue prosecutor, Kim Foxx of Chicago, was shoved off the political stage earlier this year by the Democratic machine because they know that her policies, which they secretly endorse, have caused homicides, rapes and thefts to rise to heights not seen since the early 1990s.

Rather than trying to solve the problem, though, Democrats want to trick voters.

But it’s hard to hide dead bodies, shuttered stores, videos of looting in broad daylight, and rampant criminal activity in major Democratic-run cities.

What the Axios story and others don’t tell you is that in Chicago, New York, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and other cities with rogue prosecutors, rates of crime, including homicide, were at historic highs last year. So, any minor dip in crime rates so far this year in those cities is nothing to brag about.

Neither Axios nor Third Way nor any of the other outlets engaged in this deceptive attempt to flip the political narrative and blame Republicans for increased crime rates defend the “merits” of defunding the police, rogue prosecutors’ menu of pro-criminal policies, disregarding victims’ rights, or the scourge of not asking for bail.

Why not?

If they’re so great, and lower crime rates based on the hilarious (and false) assertion that “data and science” back up these policies, why not dig in and offer a full-throated defense?

Because deep down they know that these policies don’t ensure public safety and are defensible only in a Marxist, equity-oriented framework that most Americans reject.

So, the next time you see an eye-catching headline about how crime is not as bad as so-and-so wants you to believe, or that rising crime rates and the dystopian hellholes that have been created in inner cities are the fault of Republicans, you’ll know what is really happening and why.

Beverly Hills Wants Rabbi’s In-Home Religious Gatherings to Cease and Desist. He’s Not Budging

A rabbi in Beverly Hills is fighting for his First Amendment rights after the Los Angeles suburb sent him a “notice of violations,” seeking to prevent him from holding Jewish services in his home.

The nonprofit First Liberty Institute and the law firm of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, which represent Rabbi Levi Illulian, sent a letter to Beverly Hills Code Enforcement Attorney and Prosecutor Steven H. Rosenblit on Wednesday calling on Beverly Hills to retract that notice.

“We have demanded that the city immediately withdraw its June 12, 2023, ‘Notice of Violations’ letter and acknowledge in writing that Rabbi Illulian is within his legal rights to engage in religious activities at the Home with family and friends,” First Liberty, a Plano, Texas-based conservative law firm, specializing in religious freedom, told The Daily Signal in an email.

If it doesn’t, First Liberty made clear in its letter to Rosenblit that it will take the city to court for violating Illulian’s First and 14th Amendment rights.

For several months, Illulian provided Jewish religious services, such as Shabbat, for his guests. That was until February, when he received a notification that a neighbor had reported him for causing noise, parking trouble, and increased trash in Illulian’s backyard.

The city investigated, but as First Liberty noted in its letter to Rosenblit, “After spending nearly a month investigating the complaints, the City initially (and correctly) concluded that the alleged violations were unfounded and closed its case.”

After receiving another complaint in March, the city reopened its investigation and utilized what “Orwellian tactics” to spy on Illulian and his guests by taking photos of them and flying drones over his home, First Liberty noted in its letter to the city.

On June 12, the city notified Illulian through the “notice of violations” letter that if he did not stop holding private religious gatherings at his home, he would be “subject to criminal and/or civil proceedings in the Los Angeles County Superior Court.”

Illulian responded by contacting First Liberty while continuing “to host his private and intimate religious gatherings … as is his right under the Constitution,” First Liberty told The Daily Signal.

Since then, “the City has continued its concerning and potentially unconstitutional surveillance of the home during that time, including by photographing guests coming and going from the Rabbi’s home and even using a drone to survey the property,” First Liberty noted in its letter to Rosenblit.

First Liberty told The Daily Signal, “The City’s actions here, including barring all religious gatherings with friends and family and engaging in multi-hour stakeouts, are particularly egregious abuses of government power,” especially since Illulian only sought to provide community.

Illulian started celebrating Jewish dinners at his home “as a means of supporting an aging, home-ridden Holocaust survivor,” First Liberty’s press release says.

The rabbi wanted to create what he called an “intimate religious gathering.” As a result, he made sure he did not invite more than his home could hold and asked those he did invite to park varying distances from his home so as not to inconvenience his neighbors.

First Liberty said it will continue to defend Illulian “because the First Amendment and the [federal] Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act … protect the right of Rabbi Illulian and all Americans to engage in private religious exercise at their homes with family, friends, and neighbors, free from government burden and interference.”

Australia's Matildas are named 'one of the gayest teams at the World Cup' by leading LGBTQ news site

I had been told that female footballers are mostly butch Lesbians but I follow no sport so wondered if that was correct. Looks like it was. It may explain why play in their most recent match was pretty rough. It must be a first that a team of homosexuals received great public praise but one must wonder if many fans knew the full score about the team

The Matildas have been named one of the 'gayest' teams in the Women's World Cup, having the equal highest representations of lesbian players of all teams in the competition.

Pink News made the assessment ahead of Australia's semifinal against England on Wednesday night which the Matildas lost 3-1.

The UK-based news site said the Matildas had nine first-team players and three reserves who were in same-sex relationships, tying the squad with the Brazil team for the most openly lesbian players in the 2023 World Cup.
