Another Grim Milestone of Yet Another Day of America

Whatever George Floyd did in terms of why he was arrested in the first place and from the look of how he was behaving while being arrested cannot ever justify the taking of his life.  I don't buy the official story either that he died at the hospital perhaps from some other cause.  He died at the hands of that officer and the others who did not intercede to prevent it.

With that out of the way, we now have the city of Minneapolis in flames, as well as copycat rioting in other cities to "protest" Floyd's killing. In fact, thugs evidently were able to pull off an Assault on Precinct 13 attack on a police station and set it on fire.  Even more disturbing is the attack on a woman in a wheelchair by these poor, misunderstood little darlings who were no doubt turning their lives around and reacted in a way that should not be criticized because moral relativism or some such thing.  This kind of behavior is as horrendous as that of the police.  But I suppose I'll be criticized for being too blindly pro-law enforcement for mentioning it?

Worst of all are the pronouncements from what I consider to be down there with pedophiles, sex-traffickers and drug dealers as the lowest form of humanity: the self-promoting political opportunist.  Bipedal turds like Colin Kaepernick, Cookie Milano and Frances Fisher whose contributions to our cultural heritage are less than nil, yet are openly fomenting race wars.  To paraphrase a famous bit of First World War propaganda, "white elitist Leftists will fight to the last poor, ignorant black man."  Not to pat myself on the back but if that doesn't crystallize the history of Democrat racism and racialism in this country, I don't know what does.  It cannot be stated enough that as horrendous and abhorrent as a white policeman killing a subdued black suspect is, this particular kind of incident is rare.   The vast majority of violent crimes in America's cities, by orders of magnitude, are committed by blacks against other blacks.  In either case, it's the Democrat-Media Complex that makes sure the former is always in the public eye and the latter is covered up.  That's because it keeps them in power and has kept them in power, especially on the state and local level, for decades.  That's why, all things considered, it is not hyperbole to openly and emphatically label the American Left and Democrat party as evil.

This incident, and virtually every other incident involving white law enforcement and minority perpetrator took place in jurisdictions that are and have been controlled by Democrats.  In part or in toto, Democrats comprise the majority of mayors, city councils, DAs, police commissioners and chiefs, aldermen, as well as state legislatures, attorneys general and governors in some instances.  They write the laws, they train the officers, they enact the policies. And yet year after year, blacks and other minorities vote for them blindly because they are told that Democrats are the solution to their problems - problems that only get worse and get blamed on the white man, conservatives, Republicans, capitalism, etc. etc. etc.

Again, it's either an amazing coincidence or damned good luck that the tragic and completely unjustified killing of George Floyd by a Minneapolis cop came just as Democrats were running out of excuses to continue the General Tso's Sicken lockdown - - and that the revelations about Barack Obama's direct knowledge of and more than likely participation in the plot to sabotage the 2016 election and then overthrow President Trump with the Russia Collusion hoax/fraud are coming to light. - J.J.

Well, I Think We Know Who WILL NOT Be Biden's VP Choice

Senator Lady Amy Klobs (D-Minn)

George Floyd's death in police custody is renewing criticism of Sen. Amy Klobuchar's prosecutorial record. Before she became a senator and a top contender for Joe Biden's vice presidential spot, Klobuchar spent eight years as the Hennepin County attorney, in charge of prosecution for Minneapolis. And while in that position, she declined to prosecute multiple police officers cited for excessive force, including the same officer seen kneeling on Floyd's neck as he protested.

Ex-Minneapolis police officer Derick Chauvin saw at least 10 conduct complaints during his 19-year tenure before he was fired Tuesday, according to a database that documents complaints against police.  As The Washington Post noted in March, Klobuchar "declined to bring charges in more than two dozen cases in which people were killed in encounters with police" as Hennepin County attorney.  Instead, she "aggressively prosecuted smaller offenses" that "have been criticized for their disproportionate effect on poor and minority communities." And as the Viking Snow Princess undergoes vetting to become a possible VP candidate, that track record is being scrutinized again with a fine tooth comb fork.

Big Tech Billionaires Plotting to Burn Large Piles of Cash

LinkedIn Co-Founder Reid Hoffman, who notoriously backed a group that “spread disinformation during the 2017 Alabama special election for U.S. Senate,” is now being joined by other Big Tech billionaires to set fire to large piles of cash in an attempt to boost the Democrat's nominee for president. According to Vox Recode “sweeping plans” are “poised to make these billionaires some of the country’s most influential people when it comes to shaping the November results.” These billionaires plans include funding divisive partisan news sites.

NB - OpenSecrets revealed that “political operations are pouring millions of ‘dark money’ dollars into ads and digital content masquerading as news coverage to influence the 2020 election.” One of those progressive operations is dubbed Courier Newsroom, which “has faced scrutiny for exploiting the collapse of local journalism to spread 'hyperlocal partisan propaganda'. Courier Newsroom is owned by the leftist nonprofit ACRONYM. 

OpenSecrets reported that ACRONYM had “received financial backing from Investing in US, an investment vehicle funded by Silicon Valley donor and billionaire LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman.” Recode said that Hoffman’s “aides have indicated that setting up partisan news sites that masquerade as journalism is one of the priorities of its group of allied donors.” According to Recode, Hoffman has put around $10 million into ACRONYM. 

Tech billionaires, “particularly Moskovitz and Powell Jobs,” are unleashing “millions into some of the country’s most ambitious voter-registration programs — almost all of it behind the scenes..."  About a dozen voter-registration groups, which included failed Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams’s leftist group Fair Fight, gathered Powell Jobs’s “Emerson Collective headquarters in mid-March to raise money for their 2020 plans, sources told Recode.”

Beware citizen of any and all new News / Website that has or will pop up in near future claiming to be Pro-Trump. There could be outrageous things said in the name of support of DJT.

This Should Bring Democrat Strategist Night Sweats

Voices on the left, from the Democratic National Committee to the biased mainstream media to the hideously uninformed late-night comics propagandist, will do anything to avoid saying that what’s bad news for the country is good news for the Democratic opposition to Trump. They know the economy is Trump’s hole card because the success of his tax-cutting & deregulation that set loose the economy and American jobs has been so obvious even the mainstream media couldn’t cover it up. 

When the Chinese coronavirus dropped a hammer on this red hot booming economy, democrats saw, and the media promoted, circumstances taking away one of DJT's biggest weapons in the upcoming election.  According to Politico, top Democrats are worried even a partial economic recovery going into the fall could be a boost DJT's re-election bid.  An economic recovery every American should want to see is exactly the “general election scenario that Democrats are dreading.” This, at least partially, explains the present media scare-mongering disguised as news reporting.

The report kicks off with a scene-setter from an early April online meeting of a “top officials from both parties” where former Obama administration economist and current Harvard professor Jason Furman made a startling prediction.

“We are about to see the best economic data we’ve seen in the history of this country. You could easily have 1 to 2 million jobs created a month in those four reports before November."

He said he believes warnings of another Great Depression are overblown, inaccurate predictions.  He added that third-quarter GDP released at the end of October "could be double-digit positive economic growth."  For most Americans, regardless of politics, that would be news worth cheering about. Small businesses shuttered, hardships for millions who rely on those salaries, and giant squeeze on charities. Who could think it was bad news that this might be about to change?

This telling paragraph in Politico’s report has an answer to that:

Furman’s counterintuitive pitch has caused some Democrats, especially Obama alumni, around Washington to panic. "This is my big worry," said a former Obama White House official who is still close to the former president.

Asked about the level of concern among top party officials, he said:

"It’s high — high, high, high, high.’” “Even today when we are at over 20 million unemployed Trump gets high marks on the economy, so I can’t imagine what it looks like when things go in the other direction. I don’t think this is a challenge for the Biden campaign. This is the challenge for the Biden campaign. If they can’t figure this out they should all just go home."

Tank Abrams Wants to Nullify Your Vote in the Name of Fairness

Sneaking into my house doesn't make you a family member, 

and you have no say so in what goes on there.

Take Note: Tank uses a typical democrat augmentative slight-of-hand as the basis for pushing for illegal aliens to vote when she states "50% of population under 15 are from communities of color..."  This is true.  BUT, her figure of 50% also includes legal citizen Hispanics, Asians as well as natural born African Americans.  But what would a democrat talking point be with much if any truth attached to it????

There's no length the dems won't go to to win in November. See previous post below.

DEM's Going All-Out With Newest Wet Dream - Taking Voter Fraud Nationwide

 DNC Head Proglodyte Tom Perez

In one of the most ironic pieces I have read lately the head of the DNC, the same organization that changed the rules and right out in the open for all to see rigged their own nominating process and gave Madam Cankles the prize in 2016, now has recently set it sights on national elections. Their newest assault on the America is the dangerous territory of "Voting By Mail".

It's been reported that Hillary got over 100% of votes in some districts, and without a doubt it happened because the DNC looked at who had and who had not been voting and sent a mail in vote for those individuals, and the same individuals actual decided to vote in 2016. Wednesday on MSNBC, Democratic National Committee chairman Tom Perez accused President DJT of attempting to “steal the election” by opposing vote-by-mail during the coronavirus pandemic.

MSNBC's Chris Hayes:

"The way he attacked absentee voting today struck me as genuinely dangerous and genuinely sort of threatening to democracy. How high on the priority list is it for you to do what you can to the safeguard administration of free and fair elections this fall?"

DNC Perez:

"It’s the highest priority, Chris because we know that you’re going to see voter suppression on steroids in the months ahead. We had a conversation I know about the election in Wisconsin recently where they tried to weaponize the pandemic to suppress the vote and steal the state supreme court race. It failed miserably. That’s what you’re going to see. “What we have to do between now and November is make sure that every single voter in every single state has a choice. The choice to vote on election day. So the choice to early vote, the right to vote absentee with no excuse, the right to vote by mail. This president, in a desperate effort to steal an election, is going to stop at nothing."

Alinsky 101: "Always blame the other side for what you, yourself are doing..."  There's so much PROJECTION coming from this clown that he should change his name to BELL & HOWELL.

Any attempt by Republicans to ensure the integrity of elections by eliminating voter fraud is called "voter suppression" by the Democrats. Having your vote count is a right. Double voting, voting by dead people and illegal immigrants nullifies our rightful honest vote. So yes, we need to suppress illegal votes. Under mail-in voting you have no way of verifying that your vote was counted. There is no double-check like in-person voting. You only have trust in liberals who are open with their efforts to steal the election that your vote got counted.

You can steal almost any local or state/congressional with enough provisional ballots.  Blue states representatives have been in frenzy to get "Same Day Registration" with no ID so they all they need is enough foot soldiers. With all-mail there is no way anybody is going to check all those signatures vs. the rolls. And in the cities with one-party rule they wouldn't even try.

No voting system is perfect but best by far is directly voting in person. Anything which takes your eyes off your vote is wide-open to corruption. Any programmable voting machine involved is really bad since you have no way of knowing what it’s programmed to do. Stalin himself told the world that it’s the ‘people’ who count the votes that matter – that was before vote-rigging machines were created.

The UK has ballots by mail and I've read about endless problems, inaccuracies and fraud in connection with this process. Western Civilization provides for taking care of almost all business in person and with a government issued ID. The obsession with mail in votes on the left has but one goal. To try to overrule the will of the people again!

Same day, in person, ID in hand, PAPER BALLOT. The only place a Dem would win is in districts with a city over 100,000 pop.

COVID-1984

Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer

At first I wanted to give everyone involved in the insanity of the left regarding the Wuhan virus the benefit of the doubt, we didn’t know what this was, and we were trying to take precautions to prevent the spread of a virus we knew little about.  With the new data coming out, and the revelations of the WHO being an arm of the Chinese government, and the fact that none of the numbers can be trusted from government organizations I have thrown up my hands over the reaction to this pandemic.

I swear it’s like there is a contest among the elite to see what stupid things they can get their citizens to do using scare tactics and a complicit unquestioning media.  Whether it’s wearing hats with pool noodles attached to keep “social distance” or it’s walking in the equivalent of a baby stroller to go to a bar in Maryland, this is asinine and almost reads like a psychological operation to see just how much you can demean American citizens before they finally snap.  We know that the Democrat’s prospects in November are grim, which is evidenced by Joe Biden being kept in his basement unless he is appearing for a scripted, kabuki theater prop, but I never thought they would take advantage of a contagious virus and brazenly try to destroy the economy just to get "Their Guy" elected.  

Americans are trying to understand the absolute illogical implementation of these “lock-downs” that governors are imposing on their citizens.  Whether it’s that they had to close down their small business, yet hundreds of people can pile into your local Wal-mart every hour, or that you are told that you’re not an essential worker, but somehow the guy who sells weed at a dispensary is. Americans have been remarkably patient with the government in trying to help their fellow citizens, but the mask has come off and everyone can now see that the majority of panic porn coming from the mainstream media, and the continued extensions from liberal governors is obviously more a mea culpa over them telling everyone they will LITERALLY DIE if they go outside.

The reporting coming out today about Donald Trump taking hydroxychloroquine as a preventative is proof positive that the liberal media will destroy any prospect of this ending unless it’s on their terms.  Not only have they found a vector to funnel billions of dollars into their liberal pet projects,  the “pandemic” is now an excuse to leverage big government against Americans for things like climate change and universal healthcare.  Military personal are given malaria drugs every time they deployed as an anti-viral, and as far as I know there's no media reports of deaths, or of hundreds of thousands of contractors who received the exact same medication for the exact same purpose, so the media can stop lying to the American people with what seems to be the intent of exacerbating the pandemic as much as possible.

Unfortunately, Americans have shown the Left a road map on how they can implement sweeping measures to try and inflict their political whims with little legislative process. We need to ensure that one of the lessons we learned from this pandemic is that any chance that the Left has to seize power and violate American’s civil liberties they will. We need to make sure that we don’t become accustomed to the government changing the American way of life, and then perpetually lying to our faces to try and keep us scared.

Careful With That Axe Eugene...

Do People Who Want DJT to Fail Ever Get Tired of Posing as if They're Offering to Help Him Avoid Failure?

Eugene Robinson of The Washington Post:

"President Trump’s increasingly frantic attempts to smear former president Barack Obama reek of panic. As disgusting as these efforts are, they are likely to backfire, perhaps in spectacular fashion..."

Maybe there are readers at WaPo who lap this stuff up. They want Trump to be going nuts and they'd like to see his attacks backfire spectacularly. But there's no way an interpretation like this could influence Trump. He's not going to think: I'd better calm down and realize that attacks on Obama will only hurt me. It makes much more sense for him to interpret a column like that to mean that his attacks are effective.

"Maybe Trump just cannot abide the fact that Obama is a Nobel laureate, respected around the world, while he has had to endure being snickered at by world leaders and portrayed as hapless and ignorant by the “fake news” media he claims to hate yet compulsively devours. Increasingly, his imagined victimizer is Obama himself. Trump even tries to blame Obama for his own administration’s botched response to a disease that did not exist when Obama was in office. 

I thought everyone knew you don’t tug on Superman’s cape...."

And yet, you're doing just that.

By the way, the line "you don’t tug on Superman’s cape" comes from Jim Croce's "You Don't Mess Around With Jim," and the question why Superman wears a cape — what good does it do him? — has long plagued readers of comic books who think too much.

IN THE COMMENTS: Calypso Facto said:

"Jim" also gets his ass handed to him by the upstart "Slim" at the end of Croce's song. Maybe more on point than Eugene Robinson intended? (And isn't Slim a great nickname for Trump in response to Pelosi's failed fat-shaming?)

WaPo Viciously Mocked For ‘Bizarre’ Tank Abrams Profile Comparing Her To ‘A Runway Supermodel’

EARL DONE THIS

The Washington Post of "Democracy Dies in the Newsroom" fame was soundly mocked on the tweeter after publishing a dramatic profile of the shadow Governor of Georgia and VP in waiting, Tank Abrams. The profile called “The Power of Stacey Abrams” includes a long description comparing Abrams, to “a runway supermodel.” complete with a picture of her wearing a freakin' cape.

DC - Pandemonium ensues as she walks to the far left of the stage, like a runway supermodel, stops on a dime, poses, tilts her head slightly and smiles. Camera flashes explode. She next pivots and walks slowly to the center of the stage, freezes there and repeats the pose. Again, the flashes explode. Abrams is summoning her inner actress, and she is both enjoying the moment and getting through it to get to the conversation. 

She then pivots and walks to the far right of the stage, same. You wonder whether she has done this before, because it is not necessarily what one would expect from a 46-year-old politician who was nearly elected the first black female governor in U.S. history. 

Abrams’s feature in WaPo sparked many to mock the publication’s “bizarre” piece on the vice presidential hopeful. “Have any Wash Post reporters resigned in embarrassment this morning?” Stephen L. Miller, host of the “Versus Media Podcast” on Patreon, tweeted Sunday morning. “No? Cool, so we’re all on board with supermodel Stacey Abrams then. How does something like this even make it past editors who care about their reputations?” Miller wrote in another tweet, highlighting the paragraph where Abrams is compared to a supermodel. 

New York Post reporter Jon Levine wrote that it was “disturbing that so many of my colleagues at other news orgs don’t realize how bad this kind of hagiography makes us look.” The comments included assurances that the piece is, in fact, real. The profile was written by left-wing activist Kevin Powell, who has made numerous unsuccessful runs for Congress....."

I do like the way she parts her teeth, but Supermodel?  Please, get me a barf bucket.....

Media Ramps Up Frontal Assault on Unmasking Scandal

Lacking any self-awareness of being on a channel that routinely engages in nutty left-wing conspiracy theories and outrageous rhetoric, MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle kept up her network’s insistence that there was “nothing” to see regarding the controversy swirling around top Obama administration officials – including Joe Biden – urging the unmasking of Michael Flynn.

Following days of her fellow liberal hosts down playing the scandal in between the scare-mongering and the Orangeman bad choruses, Ruhle assured viewers the scandal was “completely made up” and a “nonsense story.”

“This morning, nearly 86,000 Americans have died from coronavirus....But the President and his allies are laser focused on a different story, one they completely made up,” Ruhle declared during the 9:00 a.m. ET hour. She bitterly added: “Something that they now are calling ‘Obamagate.’ It means nothing........The President has called it the greatest political crime in our country’s history, but it’s not.”

Thursday afternoon, Deadline: White House host Nicolle Wallace used nearly identical language, ranting that the scandal was a “fantasy,” like “the political version of the Tooth Fairy” or Santa Claus.  


Despite Wallace’s spin that this was Trump deflecting blame, her quickness to dismiss a legitimate story as a conspiracy theory, plus Joe Biden’s repeated lies that he was in no way involved in the investigation into Michael Flynn, may say more about how worried they are for 2020, than it does about Trump.

No doubt, The High Princess of Conspiracy Theories, Ricky Maddow, is surely feeling all invigorated about now....

Since When Did CNN Become a Satire Site??

CNN wants you to know that CNN took a poll, and according to that CNN poll people trust CNN more than anyone CNN says.

According to RedState, CNN is so proud of the fact that they decided to air the CNN poll on CNN, and then CNN host Lil' Tater Stelter tweeted it out because if anyone should report on how loved CNN is, it’s CNN.

This is like someone being their own character witness. Any and all claims should be taken with a grain of salt because it’s pretty well understood that no one is going to speak ill of themselves, especially if there’s money on the line. Hilariously, this seems to go over the heads of CNN, including Stelter who actually did tweet the poll results out after they aired on his network, which according to CNN is trusted by 55 percent of America. (enter laugh track here)

(Full Disclosure: Your beloved Editrix also took a poll and found I was the most captivating, alluring and fetching blogger in the surrounding 6 acres by a 99 percentage rate (margin of error +/-50 %)

Keep in mind that this is the same network that just tried to hide its own poll released on Tuesday that showed President Donald Trump was winning against Biden in battleground states. “Striking [numbers] about trusted sources…,” tweeted Stelter, with what I assume was a straight face.

Striking #'s about trusted sources... pic.twitter.com/zUYqXDlQ4x

— Brian Stelter (@brianstelter) May 12, 2020

It’s also the same network that attempted to sell the idea that host Chris Cuomo dramatically came out of quarantine after overcoming COVID-19 despite the fact that he actually had come out previously to travel to his property in a different part of New York where he got into an altercation with a man on a bicycle. This is the same Cuomo that later called people who leave their homes during a pandemic “fools.”

It’s the same Network that couldn’t help but have disgraced porn lawyer Michael Avenatti on to discuss Trump 74 times in the span of 10 weeks and is now hosting a Coronavirus townhall that features environmentalist mascot, that little weird kid Greta Thunberg. What expertise she has on the virus hasn’t been explained.

All this to point out that CNN is a joke network with joke reports, and the network reporting that it’s the most trusted name in news, especially on COVID-19 reporting, is like a con-artist telling you the latest iPhone he’s selling is legitimate. You’re going to wind up with less than when you started thanks to the interaction.It should be understood that when it comes to news sources. Fox News and even conspiracy central, NBC News Ugly Step-sister MSNBC, consistently trounces CNN by millions while CNN can hardly place in the top 20 in terms of shows.

Even This CNN Anchor Was Stunned by Obama's Former China Ambassador's Outrageous Claim

It takes a practiced vulgarian to make a sailor blush. Likewise, it takes a truly outrageous remark by an former Obama administration official to dumbfound even a soft skull CNN anchor.

Generally speaking, if politicians go viral, it’s either because they’ve done something heartwarming, said something stirring or they’ve said something really F**king stupid. Enter Max Baucus, once Obama’s ambassador to China.  This video doesn’t feature Baucus with a puppy or giving an inspirational speech to some first responders, so you guess which one it is.



What brought on the reaction from CNN’s Hala Gorani was what Moldy ol' Max said answering her question about the China situation:

“Now in the United States, if anybody says anything reasonable about China, he or she feels intimidated, worried his head is going to be chopped off. 

Back in the ’30s in Germany, it was very similar. We’re entering an era which is similar to Joe McCarthy back when he was red-baiting in the State Department and attacking communism, and a little bit like Hitler in the ’30s.”

The Washington Free Beacon pointed out that Baucus sits on the board of advisers for the Alibaba Group, one of China’s largest technology firms, and is also on the board of directors of Ingram Micro, which was purchased by a Chinese company in 2016. Bought and paid for, Moldy Max is doing the Chinese's bidding and protecting his own personal gravy train at the expense of American owned industries.  At least the befuddlement the typical TDS infected CNN anchor is something that indeed speaks volumes.

Let's All Join Hands [virtually, of course] and Say a Prayer for Poor Squinty Scarborough

Poor Joe Scarborough: the pro-Trump media is so mean to him!  Squinty Joe opened this Mornings Squinty & Meat Puppet Show by moaning about how the pro-Trump media criticizes him for his "mistakes" lies.  In contrast, sobbed Scarborough, those same meanies ignore Trump's many "lies." Play us a sad song, Joe...

NB- Joe was awfully upset over being called out for having falsely claimed, as we noted, that "everybody saw [coronavirus] coming in early January." In fact, as late as March 10th, NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio was on . . . Morning Joe, encouraging people to go about their lives normally, claiming there was "very little threat" for the majority of New Yorkers. 

And Joe was similarly distressed for having been criticized when he retweeted a doctored video falsely suggesting that Vice President Mike Pence was carrying empty boxes of PPE as a photo op. Working to weasel out of that blooper, Scarborough came close to blaming his children, suggesting he was distracted because "actually being dad, I was running around." Those darn kids! 

As Morning Joe viewers know, Scarborough likes to ride his verbal hobbyhorses into the ground. Today's was "fainting couch," with Scarborough repeatedly saying that Trump supporters in the media got on their fainting couches over Joe's "mistakes." 

Be sure to check the end of the video, where Scarborough pretends to be on the verge of a breakdown as he imitates the outrage of the pro-Trump media. (No Oscar for you Joe)

Note: just yesterday, a supposedly contrite Scarborough, commenting on his Twitter feud with Sen. Ted Cruz over the doctored Pence video, tweeted, "I gotta work on some things myself. I've got to do better." That didn't last long!

Fact Free MSNBC Claims Vlad Putin Was Behind Dropping the Michael Flynn Case

After weeks of Andrea Mitchell Reports gladly repeating Chinese Communist Party talking points, Mitchell and former FBI Assistant Director for Counterintelligence and current MSNBC contributor Frank Figliuzzi declared without any evidence at all that Russian President Vladimir Putin had something to do with the Justice Department’s decision to drop the case against former General Michael Flynn.

After Mitchell breathlessly summarized the “stunning” and “unprecedented” decision on Flynn, she saw something sinister in the Thursday phone call between President Trump and Putin. “Frank, first, all of the implications here, and the fact that he then called Vladimir Putin yesterday. She then asked Figliuzzi to, “Talk to me about your counterintelligence concerns here.”

Figliuzzi was certain that the phone call and the decision to drop the case were connected, “Yeah, I think they’re actually linked. The dismissal of charges against Flynn and conversation by the president with Vladimir Putin, stone cold adversary of the United States on the very same day, that’s not a coincidence.”

Whether Trump is allegedly a puppet or merely trying to appease Putin was left unsaid, but Figliuzzi maintained that the Flynn investigation was an urgent matter of national security, “The Flynn interview that is at issue here by the FBI was all about resolving the question of whether Mike Flynn was a counterintelligence threat to the nation as he entered into the national security adviser role. It was about figuring out how to neutralize, resolve and counter that threat. So when the president gets on the phone with Vladimir Putin and the topic comes up in the same conversation, the concerns have not yet been resolved.”

A retired three-star general is a national security threat? That’s a bit of a stretch.

Mitchell and Figliuzzi are simply wrong. The Trump-Putin phone call was on Thursday, the same day that the DOJ made the decision public, but the recommendation to drop the plan was made last week by U.S. Attorney Jeff Jensen. But since when did facts mean anything to the bunch of soft skulls at MSNBC.

So, We’re back to Russia.. WOW.. That’s not a double down, that’s like a quad-down. These people know no shame.

And I might need remind the reader, this same nutty F**ker Frank Figliuzzi, former FBI Assistant Director for Counterintelligence, who once told Lyin' Brian Willams Trump was signaling White Supremacist by raising the American Flag from half staff on August 8th 2019.

No Maggie, It's Not a Hostile Media Cycle Takeover

It has become more and more apparent that the media as a whole are afraid to look in the mirror as to not see the real hypocrisy in their heroic endeavors at informing the public of the current resident of the WH. [enter laugh track here] It's obvious The NYTs Maggie Haberman literally doesn't own a mirror, if you've every seen her you'd probably agree.

And after billions in free media DJT was given that helped elect him, for Haggie Maggie to suggest the media cycles are the victim of a "Hostile Takeover" by DJT is a remarkable statement no one would believe unless they've been in a cave for the last three years. While the media fawn over Joe Biden, stuck in his basement running a 80's style campaign the media manufactures news, pumping the news cycle, breathlessly fact-checking things DJT never said. The media circle jerk willingly went to the well and Maggie has been outed as another charlatan.

Am struck by the spate of interviews the president is doing lately - aides seem to be trying to recreate the atmospherics around the 2016 campaign, when candidate Trump could do a hostile takeover of the media cycle and he had a constant stream of attention paid.

It's Not a Hostile Media Takeover when "the media cycle" collectively hikes up its skirt, gets on all fours and begs to be taken like the German Wehrmacht took Poland.

Fun Fact: In Sanskrit, "Maggie Haberman" is an anagram for "coquettish arsenic".

The Newest Entry into Our American English Lexicon - Doomer.

Some have yet to hear or are unaware of the newest entry into our American English lexicon - Doomer. It's is a feeble play on the boomer meme, and it’s applied to those people who screech at anyone who wants to go back to work, and anyone who questions the media’s fear mongering when it comes to the Corona Virus. Many are asking how people can be so obsessed with quarantine, and how they can get so psychotic about closing everything down, and there’s a reason why it’s impossible to figure out their rationale.

Your average Doomers aren’t actually tying to “save lives” as they so smugly try to say, they’re addicted to the dopamine hit they get from feeling morally justified.  The  Corona Virus media coverage, and the rationale used to justify lock downs is based entirely on fear and emotion.  Doomers grab hold of this fear and feel like they are being superheroes for calling the cops on business owners, neighbors, and posting shrilling takes on social media about how evil people are for wanting to go back to work.  We indeed should take careful measures to protect the elderly and infirm and those most susceptible, but there is clearly little logic to keeping literally everyone locked down.

The doomers will tell you that you want to kill old people just for money, which literally nobody is saying. Amazingly, these same doomers have nothing to say about Gov. Andrew Cuomo forcing  Corona Virus patients into nursing homes, which invariably killed A LOT of people.  Doomers are obsessed with feeling moral, patting themselves on the back, and ultimately feeling like they are better than you.

A lot of progressive thinking is built off the idea that those who agree are part of some intellectual nobility.  They flaunt their points as if anyone who disagrees doesn’t have the cognitive ability of understanding the “experts” like they do (just check out the tweeter machine) the same “experts” who have been less reliable than a local news station’s weatherman (apologies to any meteorologists out there).

They are addicted to the dopamine rush they get from feeling like they are part of some ultra-intelligent group who gets to preach to the unwashed masses who happen to be composed of their friends, family, and neighbors.

Though this is anecdotal, I will say that I have witnessed a common theme among the doomers that I have spoken with. Every person I have spoken to who is clutching their pearls and shaming anyone who dares think about going back to work or still working, there is a definite evidence that the people who are the most committed to keeping everyone hiding under their beds from  are those who are the least effected.

The reason why you feel like you’re taking crazy pills trying to figure out how these people are so committed to this idiocy is because they aren’t, it is all about them feeling superior, and part of the intellectual nobility, it isn’t actually about the Corona Virus.

Another Heaping Bowl of Stupid

Anand Giridharadas

I ask, who are all these children, those of prized first generation immigrants who came here as professionals and have done well while adding much to the American experience?? Children raised with all the privilege and opportunity America has to offer, like the best schools and universities. And once on their own, see everything that was earned and given and laid at their feet, what made them who and what they are, now must be changed because of who created it all.

One such soft skull is Anand Giridharadas, son of East Indian heritage, former columnist for the NYT, schooled in privilege at Sidwell Friends School, University of Michigan & Harvard, who now (because he's more smarter and wrote a book) is one of the media's go-to oracles on what's wrong with America, Americans, and in-particular, people who don't look like him.

Giridharadas latest ignorant proclamation is he believes "freedom-obsessed Americans" are blinded to threats like virus or climate change. In his own words speaking on MSNBC's 'Morning's with Squinty' of the present Corona Virus outbreak:

“One of the fundamental questions to me is, what’s going to be our relationship to government, the idea of government after this?  There’s a primordial American tradition going back to the founders of being freedom-obsessed, even though we’re a country founded on slavery and genocide, being freedom-obsessed to the point that we’re always so afraid of the government coming for us that we’re blind to other types of threats, whether it’s a virus, whether it’s bank malfeasance, climate change, what have you. 

There’s also a more recent, kind of 40-year version of this, which is the Reagan war on government, government is the problem, right? That’s not just an idea on the right. There’s a hard version on the right, there’s a small-c ‘conservative’ kind of militant version of it, but it has also infected many people on the left in this passive sense, like ‘I believe in government,’ but ‘I would never go work there,’ or ‘I believe in government but, you know, I kind of like don’t like my taxes too high, or I use trusts in the Cayman Islands..." 

And then there is the more recent Trump-era twist in this which is the war on government becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, you undermine government, you undermine it, you undermine it, you put someone who can barely read a sentence in government, in the figure of Donald Trump, and it becomes true that government sucks because you made it suck by telling everybody it sucks. 

And I think the most important thing that could come out of this is realizing the government is not the biggest threat to our liberty. What government fundamentally does is protect us from a lot of those other oppressions that we in America are often quite blind to."

Giridharadas then was unceremoniously slammed to the pavement on the Tweeter machine for his take and “utter contempt” of Americans.  Here is but a sample:

OMG “obsession with freedoms”
When will he be moving to Cuba?

Obviously this guy loves the sound of his own voice and thinks whatever he has to say is brilliant. 🙄

— DeeRody (@Dee_Rody) May 6, 2020

Oh he does. He just has utter contempt for them akin to the contempt that Soviet apparatchiks has for us.

— Rafael G. Nendel-Flores (@rnendelflores) May 6, 2020

Joseph Stalin approves of this message....

— Rich Jones (@rjones138) May 6, 2020

With lock downs imposed across the country in recent weeks as governments attempted to control citizens to stem the spread of the virus, many would probably not be quick to agree that the frequent cases of overreach are just the government trying to “protect” people.
