Thursday News Roundup: Trump Pardons Stone and Manafort, Fauci Admits He’s Been Lying

More Trump pardons. – 26 more altogether were issued last night as the President now appears to be winding his administration down despite all of his public messaging about the theft of the presidency by the Democrats and corrupt Republicans in coordination with Dominion Systems. In addition to the 26 pardons, the President issued commutations to three more individuals.

Included in last night’s pardons are Roger Stone and Paul Manafort, two Trump loyalists whose rights were heinously abused by the Mueller Gestapo as a part of the slow-rolling coup d’etat that held the country hostage for 20 long months. The full list of the beneficiaries of these pardons and commutations can be found at this link.

Naturally, the Trump-hating corrupt news media is going berserk this morning over the pardons of Manafort and Stone. Cool.

Eric Trump tweeted this out last night – it seems especially appropriate here:

Here are two suggestions for the President’s next pardons: Julian Assange and Edward Snowden.

Do it, Mr. President. Just do it.

Sassy Ben weighs in. – Sassy Ben Sasse let it be known he does not approve of these pardons, oh no, not at all:

Because of course he doesn’t approve. He’s an effete RINO, a terminally annoying clown who follows Mitt Romney around on a leash, apparently.

Imagine what a hissy fit Sassy Ben will toss if and when the President pardons Snowden and Assange. It would be glorious to behold.

Again, do it, Mr. President. Just do it.

Another Trump veto. – President Trump also issued a veto on Wednesday, though not of the $2.4 trillion in Covid/pork spending congress passed on Monday. Those bills remain in limbo at the moment.

The Trump veto yesterday relates to the $740 billion defense spending bill congress passed earlier this month with veto-proof majorities in both houses of congress. At the time of its passage, the President warned congress that he would veto the bill due to the fact that it does not contain repeal of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. So, yesterday he followed through on that promise, as he pretty much always does, and corrupt reporters and politicians expressed their shock. Because they’re all either lying scumbags or morons.

Sorry, I know that’s harsh, but it’s the truth.

Speaking of lying liars who lie for a living… – I give you Anthony Fauci. The little menace to American society is in the news again this morning. Check out this tweet from the New York Times:

“Anthony Fauci has been slowly but deliberately moving the goal posts…”

You know what “deliberately moving the goal posts” is a figure of speech for, don’t you? LYING.

Yes, friends, Romans and countrymen, the New York Times, in a laudatory piece celebrating the little menace’s deceitful behavior, freely admits he has been outright lying to the American public for almost a full year now about each and every aspect of this viral plague from China. Fauci admits it, too, because, you see, his lying is all for your own good.

You don’t have to believe me: All you have to do is read the little menace in his own words in this excerpt from the Times story:

In a telephone interview the next day, Dr. Fauci acknowledged that he had slowly but deliberately been moving the goal posts. He is doing so, he said, partly based on new science, and partly on his gut feeling that the country is finally ready to hear what he really thinks.

Hard as it may be to hear, he said, he believes that it may take close to 90 percent immunity to bring the virus to a halt — almost as much as is needed to stop a measles outbreak.

Asked about Dr. Fauci’s conclusions, prominent epidemiologists said that he might be proven right. The early range of 60 to 70 percent was almost undoubtedly too low, they said, and the virus is becoming more transmissible, so it will take greater herd immunity to stop it.

Dr. Fauci said that weeks ago, he had hesitated to publicly raise his estimate because many Americans seemed hesitant about vaccines, which they would need to accept almost universally in order for the country to achieve herd immunity.

Now that some polls are showing that many more Americans are ready, even eager, for vaccines, he said he felt he could deliver the tough message that the return to normal might take longer than anticipated.

“When polls said only about half of all Americans would take a vaccine, I was saying herd immunity would take 70 to 75 percent,” Dr. Fauci said. “Then, when newer surveys said 60 percent or more would take it, I thought, ‘I can nudge this up a bit,’ so I went to 80, 85.”

[End]

So, he’s nudging it up a bit based on polls, a clear admission that he’s been lying and waiting on the polls to authorize his next lie, because he really doesn’t know a damn thing about any of this and doesn’t want to admit it in public, since he’s paid millions of dollars a year to actually know stuff.

The little menace is nothing more or less than just another corrupt DC politician, triangulating his message – to borrow a Clinton phrase – to the public based on polls. This is not science; this is tyranny, a tyranny of clueless “experts” that has served as the basis for our nation’s entire insane response to this virus.

It’s the sort of tyranny that leads directly to this kind of lunacy on the cable fake news channels:

It’s as if no one on CNN or MSNBC is capable of noticing the simple, unarguable fact that this latest outbreak of the China virus has taken place as we are all social distancing and wearing masks. These two practices do nothing to stop the spread of this virus – nothing at all. Not a damn thing.

They are no different than what homeland security does at our nation’s airports: Meaningless, ineffective gestures designed to instill public confidence while in fact doing little or nothing to actually make us safer.

IF MASKS WORKED, WE WOULD NOT BE HAVING THE CURRENT OUTBREAK.

Seriously, how hard is this? But 90% of the public just regurgitates the media/Fauci talking points because we have become a nation of pathetic sheep.

There will be no New Roundup on Friday for obvious reasons.

Merry Christmas to you all.

Monday News Roundup: Fulton County, Georgia is Ground Zero for the Creation of the U.S. Banana Republic

[Note: For those who need their dose of mind-numbingly fake news about Joe Potato Head Biden and his dogs, I’ve covered all of that nonsense in a separate story this morning.]

China Traitor Quid Pro Joe Biden and his team of anti-American globalist leftists will love this story from DailyWire:

Here’s an excerpt:

A Chinese sociologist recently delivered marks at a forum reportedly in Shenzhen where he declared that it was only a matter of time before China overtakes the United States and effectively puts an end to it.

The remarks from Dr. Li Yi were reported by MEMRI TV, a research organization that normally tracks Islamic extremism around the world and anti-Semitism.

…

The most inflammatory quotes from the speech include:

  • “It turns out that China is going to overtake the United States in 2027. It was said that this might be delayed for a year or two, but this year, God has pulled off a little trick, right? God created COVID-19 and spread it to every country in the world.”
  • “COVID-19 is bad for Europe and America, but it is beneficial for North Korea and China.”
  • “We still have 4,000 dead, right? But if 4,000 (Chinese) die versus 220,000 in the United States, we haven’t really lost a single person, have we? We’re close to zero infections and zero deaths. If 4,000 people out of 1.4 billion die, that’s the same as no one getting sick and no one dying.”
  • “In the global economy, China stands out. We are ahead of schedule in terms of overtaking the United States. There will be no problem reaching this goal in 2027. The U.S. will not survive.”

[End]

You can bet the people at Camp Biden are looking at each other suspiciously this morning, wondering who it was that leaked their entire plan for the next four years of foreign policy to this Chinese sociologist.

My goodness.

The Russians are all smiles these days, as well. – China isn’t the only enemy of the U.S. that will benefit hugely from a Biden globalist foreign policy shift: The Russians are all happy as clams these days as well. After all, Russia’s entire economy is dependent on its oil and natural gas industry, and Biden’s plans to demolish the U.S. industry will redound to Putin’s benefit to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars each year.

Oh, hey, here is Jen Pasaki, Biden’s candidate to become White House Communications Director, paling around with a John Kerry and a pair of prominent Russian officials while wearing a pink hammer and sickle hat a few years ago:

Hooboy. I’m guessing that a Biden Department of Justice won’t be appointing a special counsel to look into all of that Russia collusion.

Meanwhile, in COVID-19 world… – Look, y’all: Anthony Fauci has suddenly decided the schools should be reopened now that Election Day is safely behind us:

Literally everyone on earth who has been paying attention to all of this COVID nonsense knew all of what Fauci said on Sunday morning months ago. This man is a menace to our entire way of life, and his influence would only grow larger in a Biden administration. Truly frightening.

The Devil went down to Georgia, he was lookin’ for a vote to steal… – Lots of really bad stuff went down in Georgia on Sunday, where Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger did nothing as Fulton County election officials “reset” the Dominion voting machines in blatant effort to erase all records related to the general election from them.

They did all of that in spite of judge’s order to halt the process:

The initial claim from Raffensperger’s election officials was that they were resetting the machines – in the midst of a general election recount, mind you – to get them ready for the January senate runoff elections. When that lame explanation wouldn’t fly, election officials then began claiming late Sunday afternoon that the Dominion Systems Mobil server had crashed:

Here’s an excerpt from that story at 11Alive News:

ATLANTA — The push to complete a recount requested by President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign has hit a snag in Georgia’s most populous county as the statewide deadline looms.

Fulton County elections officials confirmed to 11Alive on Sunday that a newly-purchased Dominion Voting Systems mobile server had crashed earlier in the day.

“Technicians from Dominion have been dispatched to resolve the issue,” Fulton County officials said in a statement. “The Georgia Secretary of State’s office has also been alerted to the issue and is aware of efforts to resolve the problem.”

The county plans to resume its counting process on Monday morning. So far, Fulton suggests its teams have already concluded the counting of absentee, early in-person, and provisional ballots – 88 percent of ballots cast.

[End]

“Technicians from Dominion have been dispatched to resolve the issue.” Oh, boy, that really makes us all feel better, doesn’t it?

Once again, we see Sec. of State Raffensperger – with the willing cooperation of Governor Brian Kemp – conducting the very same sham, meaningless “recount” of the November ballots that has already been done once before. It does not include a real audit of those ballots, including signature matching, that would be needed to really expose the fraud. So, even though everyone should be outraged by the fact that the Democrat election officials were resetting the servers in the midst of the recount, the fact is that this entire process is another distraction by a corrupt Sec. State and Governor.

But because the corrupt news media refuses to report any of it honestly, they have no political price to pay for their betrayal of the American people. In the meantime, the fix is obviously already in for those January runoffs, and the Democrat election officials have no doubt already begun producing the “ballots” they will need to ensure that both of their candidates come out the “winners.”

Georgia has become ground zero for the establishment of the American Banana Republic.

That is all.

Monday News Roundup: A New Vaccine and a New Biden-Related Voter Fraud Scam

Just a reminder that this man literally created, supplied and armed ISIS and authorized thousands of drone killings in the Middle East. Liberals think he’s wonderful:

This seems like a big deal:

Would have been good to know about this before the elections, dudes. But hey, I’m sure that it’s just a coincidence that this comes out 13 days after.

From the Mediaite Story:

Biotechnology firm Moderna has announced that their experimental vaccine is showing a very high level of effectiveness for protecting people from the coronavirus. This news follows a similar announcement from Pfizer about their Covid-19 vaccine, but the Moderna vaccine is now expected to remain stable at standard refrigerator temperatures of 2° to 8°C (36° to 46°F) for 30 days, up from the previous estimate of 7 days.

The company announced that their early data analysis shows their vaccine has a 94.5 percent effectiveness against Covid-19. CNN reports that Moderna received its results on Sunday while on call with the Data Safety and Monitoring Board, which has been overseeing their clinical data.

“It’s extremely good news. If you look at the data, the numbers speak for themselves,” Dr. Anthony Fauci said in a response gathered by Washington Post. “I describe myself as a realist, but I’m fundamentally a cautious optimist. I felt we’d likely get something less than this. … I said certainly a 90-plus-percent effective vaccine is possible, but I wasn’t counting on it.”

[End]

As I discuss elsewhere this morning, we can have a dozen effective vaccines and it won’t make a damn bit of difference to the Little Menace to Society, Anthony Fauci. He’s determined to keep us all wearing masks and pretending that social distancing works forever – the new normal in which he is the ultimate arbiter of how the government continues controlling our lives. Read it.

That’s why the Trump challenges that will be moving forward in the courts this week are so crucial. – After a weekend of pure hype from Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani, Lin Wood, Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell, the cases they have filed in state and federal courts challenging the election results in a half dozen states will begin being heard this week. While the need for a PR assault in an effort such as this is certainly understandable, this weekend was a case of too much in too short a time.

Worse, the rhetoric coming from these lawyers doesn’t really do much to increase confidence that they are truly prepared to make convincing cases in court. Giuliani in particular places almost all of his emphasis on witness testimony providing “proof” that elections were stolen using the Dominion systems. But if witness testimony is all they have, they are wasting their and the court’s time.

If these lawyers are not able to present cases filled with forensic proof that the election was indeed manipulated and demonstrate clearly how it all worked, then these lawsuits aren’t going to change a thing. They are going to be asking judges to put their lives and the remainder of their careers in personal jeopardy by issuing decisions that change the media-promoted outcomes in half a dozen states. No judge is going to be willing to do that based on the testimony of one or a thousand individuals.

Vague allegations that Dominion was created by Hugo Chavez and is partly-owned by China will not be enough: They must be able to show – clearly and unambiguously – that this system was manipulated in a way that literally changed the outcomes in states where the official counts show Biden ahead by 150,000 votes (Michigan), 60,000 votes (Pennsylvania) and 15,000 votes (Georgia).

That’s a very tall order, and the Trump legal team has only had slightly less than two weeks to put these cases together. None of this is to doubt the validity of the allegations that are being made: This election was stolen without any real question at all. But proving that in court in such a way that a judge or panel of judges are compelled to issue a radical, precedent-setting remedy – which is what they would be – is a different thing entirely.

The best advice for all of us is to hope for the best, and prepare for the worst.

The fake news never ends. – After the Trump team amended is complaint in Pennsylvania for clarity, striking one of several paragraphs that detail the fact that GOP election observers were denied access to vote counts in Philadelphia and other Democrat-run cities, the corrupt news media jointly ran with a fake story that the complaint had been dropped.

It hadn’t:

But don’t expect any corrections from the WaPo or New York Times or CNN or MSNBC or any of the myriad other fake news outlets who pushed that false story. Because faking the news is what they do and who they are. It’s in their DNA.

Meanwhile, here’s another very plausible story about massive election fraud helping Joe Biden that none of the corrupt national outlets are covering, because of course they aren’t.

From the story at The Buffalo Chronicle:

The innermost circles of the American mafia are abuzz.  The Boss of the Philly mob — ‘Skinny Joey’ Merlino — is taking a victory strut, hobnobbing around the highest echelons of old-time mafia folk, mostly in Florida, describing what may have been the heist of the century: the 2020 presidential election.

The feat is drawing praise from far-flung corners of the Italian American business community, which sees the thanks of a grateful administration as key to the revival of the community’s political influence.

But an associate says that Merlino might just be willing to flip on Joe Biden and the Pennsylvania political operatives who ordered up some 300,000 election ballots marked for Biden.  The source alleges that Merlino and a lean team of associates manufactured those ballots at a rate of $10 per ballot — a whopping $3 million for three days of work.  They were then packaged into non-descript cardboard boxes and dropped off outside the Philadelphia Convention Center.

Sources who spoke to The Chronicle on the condition of anonymity say that Merlino picked up those ballots from two private households where a trusted handful of associates were busily marking ballots with Sharpie markers.  They were paid more than $1,000 per hour, often producing thousands of ballots every hour for more than 60 nearly-consecutive hours.

[End]

This is, of course, the kind of old-fashioned voter fraud that Democrats have been practicing in big inner-cities from time immemorial. It’s exactly the kind of mob operation that got John F. Kennedy elected in 1960, the kind that got Lyndon Johnson elected to the U.S. senate in 1948, albeit on a much smaller scale. Should Merlino flip, it would be the ultimate irony, given that Biden won his first race for U.S. Senator in 1972 with the voter fraud help of the Philly mob and the Teamsters Union.

We still have a long way to go here, folks. Just be patient.

Fauci Won’t Stop Until Someone Stops Him

Get used to the new normal, folks. – Looking forward to getting rid of your masks and having the kids back in school once you’ve all been vaccinated? Not so fast, sez the little menace to society, Anthony Fauci.

Appearing on CNN – because of course he was appearing on CNN – Fauci told Jake Tapper that we’ll all just have to keep wearing those masks and doing that cute social distancing and pretending it all works for long after the vaccines have been made widely available.

From a piece at Breitbart:

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that it will still be necessary to social distance, wear masks after a coronavirus vaccine becomes available.

Jake Tapper said, “Once somebody has been immunized … Once the process is complete, does that mean they can take off their mask, don’t have to social distance, and go about their lives as before?”

Fauci said, “I would recommend that is not the case. I would recommend you have an added area of protection. Obviously, with 90 plus percent effective vaccine, you could feel much more confident, but I would recommend to people to not abandon all public health measures just because you’ve been vaccinated.”

[End]

You have to understand that, in Fauci’s demented mind, this is our “new normal,” one that should continue forever. This has been obvious since March. This is how this tiny little man derives his self-worth – determining how the lives of millions of Americans should be restricted every day. This is his base of power, and he will not be surrendering it voluntarily.

Let’s understand that he is advocating we continue into perpetuity tactics that have utterly failed to do anything real to contain this viral gift from China. The country is supposedly experiencing a new record number of “cases” despite the deployment of these very tactics across the country for months now. If these “case” numbers the media keeps pushing without fully explaining are in fact real, then we need new tactics, not a doubling down on the ones that have clearly failed us.

But success or failure doesn’t even factor into the Little Menace’s calculus: This is about control, pure and simple. It’s about Democrat politicians like Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, who ordered new lockdowns in her state over the weekend, being able to control her citizens and their personal behavior with the literal waive of a hand. It’s about Democrat governors in states like New York, California and Nevada being able to arbitrarily limit church attendance to no more than 10 people while they allow their strip clubs to reopen.

And it’s about Fauci being able to keep up his daily appearances on CNN and MSNBC, because when the lights on those cameras go on, he gets his endorphin rush.

He won’t stop until he is stopped. Does anyone really think Dementia Joe Biden will stop him?

And if you think all of this is just about containing a virus, well, think again:

It’s about global warming, and global economic challenges, and global social justice and global this and global that and, hey, wait – you thought the Biden campaign came up with that whole “Building Back Better” on their own? Hah.

Monday News Roundup: Fauci’s in Jeopardy and Trump Smeared for Planning to Declare Victory

The little societal menace may have finally gone too far. – At the last of his amazing five rallies yesterday, President Trump hinted that he might well be planning to finally, at long last rid us of the human pestilence that is Anthony Fauci.

From a report at the New York Post:

President Trump late Sunday night hinted that he may fire White House Coronavirus Task Force member Dr. Anthony Fauci after the election.

The president went on the riff while speaking about the pandemic during his fifth rally of the day in Opa-locka, Florida.

As Trump lamented news coverage of the virus, the crowd erupted into a “Fire Fauci” chant.

After the crowd simmered down, Trump said: “Don’t tell anybody, but let me wait till a little bit after the election.

“I appreciate the advice,” Trump said, to roaring cheers.

[End]

The President’s remarks came after the little menace to society had gone into full pro-Biden campaign mode in various interviews over the weekend, praising Creepy Joe McNastyFinger and telling one interviewer that the U.S. “is in for a world of hurt” this winter related to the China Virus. Given that, of course the President is considering ridding his administration of this attention-seeking creep who has been wrong about literally every aspect of this pandemic, and whose main core competency appears to be a singular talent for creating confusion by contradicting himself on a weekly basis.

Along with getting rid of Christopher Wray and Gina Haspel, sending Fauci out to pasture should be right at the top of President Trump’s post-election victory to-do list.

Speaking of Quid Pro China Traitor Joe… – Biden himself went into full pandering mode to Black voters while in Philadelphia on Sunday, resorting to all of the standard Democrat lies designed to frighten Black voters to get out to the polling places.

At one point, Biden, whose demented mind has always been an empty vessel waiting to be filled by the ideas of others, also slipped back into his standard plagiarist mode, channeling the ghost of Hillary Clinton:

Hey, at least Biden didn’t try to affect a cringe-worthy southern accent.

Notice that Delaware Blue Hens jacket Biden has on? The pathological liar told the crowd of half a dozen people that it was actually a Philadelphia Eagles jacket.

You seriously could never make this stuff up.

This is what is known as Nate Silver giving himself an out when Trump wins tomorrow. – Check out these comments from poll monkey Nate Silver, who is giving Biden an 88% chance of winning the Electoral College tomorrow:

Without Pennsylvania and its 20 electoral votes, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden will become “an underdog,” FiveThirtyEight founder and pollster Nate Silver said on Sunday.

Silver told ABC’s “This Week” that he thinks the 2020 election comes down to Pennsylvania.

“Pennsylvania has not bumped up to a seven or eight-point Biden lead, like we see in Michigan and Wisconsin,” he noted. He went on to say that “it’s not a big early voting state, so a lot of votes have not yet been cast in Pennsylvania.”

According to the FiveThirtyEight national polling average, with two days until Election Day, the former vice president was leading Trump by 8.5%.

As of Sunday, Biden leads Trump by 4.9% in Pennsylvania, according to FiveThirtyEight’s updating average of 2020 presidential general election polls, compared to a more sizeable lead of 8.4% in Michigan and 8.6% in Wisconsin.

[End]

Silver famously gave the Fainting Felon about a 90% chance of winning back in 2016. Obviously, he believes he needed to roll these comments out so he can say, “see? told you so” if Pennsylvania goes to the President one more time.

Silver is right about one thing, though: As this race is shaping up, it all will very likely come down to the Keystone State, which explains why both candidates have focused so much time and money there in the campaign’s closing days.

This might help. – The very liberal Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has not endorsed a Republican presidential nominee since Richard Nixon, who was running against the communist George McGovern in 1972. Well, given that the entire Democrat Party has gone full-on commie this year, that seems to be the magic bullet for the Post-Gazette’s editors, because they issued a hearty endorsement of President Donald Trump on Sunday. Here’s a clip:

Let’s look at the Trump record:

Under Donald Trump the economy, pre-COVID, boomed, like no time since the 1950s. Look at your 401(k) over the past three years.

Unemployment for Black Americans is lower than it has ever been, under any president of either party.

Under Mr. Trump, our trade relationships have vastly improved and our trade deals have been rewritten. Thanks to him, middle America is on the map again and the Appalachian and hourly worker has some hope.

Has Mr. Trump done enough for these struggling fellow citizens? No. But he recognized them. Maybe he was not articulate, but he recognized their pain.

No one ever asked the American people, or the people in “flyover,” country, if they wanted to send their jobs abroad — until Mr. Trump. He has moved the debate, in both parties, from free trade, totally unfettered, to managed, or fair, trade. He has put America first, just as he said he would.

He also kept his promise to appoint originalists to the Supreme Court of the United States. His third appointment, Amy Coney Barrett, is the best of all — a jurist whose mind and character and scholarship ARE first class. We hope she stands against both judicial and executive excess.

Finally, let’s talk about one of the most important concerns in this region — energy. Under Mr. Trump the United States achieved energy independence for the first time in the lifetimes of most of us. Where would Western Pennsylvania be without the Shell Petrochemical Complex (the “cracker plant”)?

Donald Trump is not Churchill, to be sure, but he gets things done.

[End]

That’s pretty good, coming from a bunch of leftwing nitwits.

Endorsements don’t generally mean much, but the one exception to that rule can be when said endorsement is a departure from the norm. Face it: Everyone knew the New York Times and Washington Post would line up to goose-step along with Biden and his commie hordes. That was a given. Everyone knew that the editors of the Wall Street Journal would faithfully endorse the President. There could be no doubt.

But everyone assumed that the Post-Gazette editorial board would also goose-step along with their comrades at the Times and the Post. That they chose instead to actually give the matter some real, honest thought is a real credit to their journalistic curiosity and a true service to their readers.

Good for them.

In other news, President Trump is now being smeared for planning to declare victory if it is apparent that he has won. – That pre-emptive smear comes from reliable old Jonathan Swan at the DNC bullhorn Axios, in a hit piece based on nothing but the claims of anonymous sources.

Here’s a clip:

President Trump has told confidants he’ll declare victory on Tuesday night if it looks like he’s “ahead,” according to three sources familiar with his private comments. That’s even if the Electoral College outcome still hinges on large numbers of uncounted votes in key states like Pennsylvania.

The latest: Speaking to reporters on Sunday evening, Trump denied that he would declare victory prematurely, before adding, “I think it’s a terrible thing when ballots can be collected after an election. I think it’s a terrible thing when states are allowed to tabulate ballots for a long period of time after the election is over.”

  • He continued: “I think it’s terrible that we can’t know the results of an election the night of the election. … We’re going to go in the night of, as soon as that election’s over, we’re going in with our lawyers.”
  • “We don’t want to have Pennsylvania, where you have a political governor, a very partisan guy. … We don’t want to be in a position where he’s allowed, every day, to watch ballots come in. See if we can only find 10,000 more ballots.”

Behind the scenes: Trump has privately talked through this scenario in some detail in the last few weeks, describing plans to walk up to a podium on election night and declare he has won.

[End]

So, what we see Swan doing here is setting the table for a refusal by the corrupt news media to properly call states for President Trump when it becomes obvious he has won them on Tuesday night, a clear departure from what they have always done in the past. It has been obvious that this has been the joint media/Democrat plan for months now, a plan clearly designed to create as much confusion and uproar as possible to help facilitate effort by the Democrats to steal the election in places like Pennsylvania, Florida and Arizona in the days following November 3.

Let’s say that it becomes obvious to the President that he has won more than 269 electoral votes at some point Tuesday night: Why in that instance would he not take to the podium and declare victory, regardless of whether or not the AP or any of the TV networks and cable channels agree?

Swan appears to believe that the media gets to declare who is and is not the winner, but that is nonsense. Nowhere in our Constitution is any mention made of a role for the media in determining the formal outcome of any election.

If the President is told by his staff that he has won on Tuesday night, then he should definitely declare that victory, and then send in his army of lawyers to monitor Democrat voter fraud efforts that will inevitably take place in places like Philadelphia and Broward County, Florida. The media has no say in any of this.

That is all.

Thursday News Roundup: Early Voting Trends are Going Trump’s Way

Early voting trends bode well for Trump. – For those who, like me, are obsessing over the early voting trends in key swing states, frequent contributor Larry Schweikart has a very good piece posted up at UncoverDC.com this morning.

Here’s an excerpt from that piece:

As the Democrat lead in the Vote By Mail (VBM) mounted two weeks ago, many Republicans panicked. Not only do Democrats usually lead in “early” voting (which includes both VBM and “In-Person Early Voting,” or IPEV), but this year in particular—with the China Virus—their emphasis on VBM has resulted in stunning voting levels. So far.

Then, suddenly, the Democrats peaked. On or around October 16, their VBM numbers, especially in Florida, began to slow. Although they had one last burst for the “Souls to the Polls” of October 24-25, it was their last gasp. When IPEV started in Florida, Republicans came out like a mighty wave, rolling over the Democrats. To date, they have over 1.3 million in-person voters. (The Democrats have not been, to use Joe Biden’s term, “chumps” at this, turning out 945,000 in-person early voters, but they are steadily losing ground). Democrats had built a 615,000 lead before the Red Charge, and now lead in total votes in Florida only by 242,102. While the pace of Republican voting is breathtaking—at one point they were adding 6,000 votes per hour—they are now on a pace to be well ahead of 2016, when Hillary Clinton entered election day with an 88,000 lead in the Sunshine State.

Ponder that. Despite the most extensive early vote/VBM campaign in history by the Democrats, Republicans are as of today poised to lead by election day. Even more astounding, they are within a mere 8,000 votes overall of winning Miami-Dade County. And right now Republicans in every county from Pensacola to the western border of Jacksonville at or above 98% of their 2016 levels (except Bay, Butler, and Leon which started later), but in these same counties Democrat turnout is lagging.

[End]

There is much more good news in several other states, so go read the full piece. You’ll feel better after you’ve done so.

Larry added one more tasty tidbit regarding Arizona on his Twitter feed late last night:

We are also having very strong early voting turnout in my home state of Texas, where the media has been heavily touting the potential for the Democrats to somehow turn the state blue in this election, just as the media has touted in every Texas election since 2008.

Some of you have no doubt been concerned by the recent fake poll paid for by the Dallas Morning News showing Biden ahead in Texas. Below is the estimate of early votes already cast in Texas by TargetSmart, a Democrat firm, which uses a formula that has proven to be accurate to estimate this in states, like Texas, that don’t require voters to register their party affiliation

As you can see, according to this Democrat firm, R voters are 18% ahead of D voters in early and mail-in balloting, which amounts to over 1 MILLION votes. Also understand that far more Rs are planning to vote in person on election day than Ds are. Texas will not be close, and Trump will win.

Stop worrying about Texas. There are plenty of other places to worry about – like Wisconsin, Virginia, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

So, how’s the Biden/Harris Harris/Biden campaign going? – While President Donald Trump was speaking before a crowd of 23,000 Arizonans in Bullhead City (total population, 40,000), Kamala Harris was speaking before a pretend audience that the media wouldn’t even show because it was so pitifully paltry.

But that’s only part of the story. Check out this video clip of the stage getting set up for her 30 seconds before she was scheduled to speak.

Surreal. Absolutely surreal.

But what about Michigan? – Yesterday, some media-sponsored fake poll came out showing Biden/Harris Harris/Biden with a whopping 17-point lead in Michigan. So, if the Biden/Harris Harris/Biden camp really believed that poll, wouldn’t they be skipping Michigan to campaign in more fertile territory? Say, maybe North Carolina or Pennsylvania one more time?

Of course, they would. But that poll is as fake as Jake Tapper’s furrowed brow, so not only will Creepy Uncle McNastyFinger emerge from his basement lair to travel there for a Saturday rally, but he announced he will be bringing Barack Hussein Obama His Own Self with him.

So, what about Michigan? Well, the truth is that President Trump is ahead there, like he told that Arizona crowd yesterday, and as we all know, Barack Hussein Obama has no magic wand that would enable him to turn back that Red tide.

As for yesterday, Quid Pro China Joe did get out into public, making it all the way to a polling place to cast a vote IN PERSON:

My guess is that he just wanted to go see who was running for president this time. Imagine his surprise.

He will not stop this until someone stops him. – We’ve seen lots of stories this week about President Trump having a growing list of high-level officials to be purged from the federal government shortly after he wins re-election for a second term in office. That list is rumored to include worthless hacks like Christopher Wray, roadblocks to truth and transparency like CIA Director Gina Haspel, and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mark Esper.

Everyone should hope and pray that the name of the little societal menace, Anthony Fauci, also makes its way onto that list of terminations. I’ve been telling you since March that Fauci’s obvious goal related to COVID-19 is to extend the pain on the American people for as long as he can get away with.

On Tuesday, Fauci told an audience in Australia that is new goal is to extend the pain all the way into 2022, as reported by NewsMax:

It’s not likely that life will return to “some semblances of normalcy” before the end of next year, or even until 2022, even though a vaccine is near, according to Dr. Anthony Fauci.

“If we get a vaccination campaign, and by the second or third quarter of 2021 we have vaccinated a substantial proportion of the people, I think it will be easily by the end of 2021, and perhaps even into the next year, before we start having some semblances of normality,” Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said during a University of Melbourne panel, CNN reported Wednesday.

[End]

So, here we see the little menace trying to extend his vauted “15 days to flatten the curve” into a destructive set of restrictions on life and the economy for two solid years. Given the chance, he will be talking about extending it into 2024 just a few months from now.

President Trump desperately needs to not give him that chance. This little menace cannot be purged from our presence soon enough.

That is all.

Tuesday News Roundup: A Red Wave is Building for Donald Trump

Lots of other stuff was happening while Amy Coney Barrett was being confirmed and sworn in to her new seat on the U.S. Supreme Court.

First, let’s look at the latest results from the two polling firms – Rasmussen and Trafalgar – that accurately projected the final outcome of the 2016 election well in advance. 

In Rasmussen, President Donald Trump (I still never tire of typing those three glorious words) has now assumed the national lead for the first time, coming in at 48% to Biden’s 47%. You may remember that Trump also led in the final Rasmussen survey in 2016, but ended up losing the popular vote thanks to the Fainting Felon’s enormous margin in a single state, California. Well, that, along with millions of illegal votes counted in her column.  We should be prepared for a similar result in the popular vote this time thanks in large part to the Democrats’ redoubled vote fraud strategy.

Still, this poll from this particular pollster is extremely encouraging. Note also that 2/3rds of this poll’s sample was taken on October 21 and 22, before the President’s domination of the final presidential debate, and thus very likely understates the Trump margin as a result.

Then there’s Trafalgar, the only pollster who makes any real effort to account for the very real and consequential “shy Trump voter” phenomenon. Trafalgar released a series of state polls on Monday showing the President leading in the states of Michigan, Florida and Arizona, all crucial swing states. These polls were take after that final debate.

Trafalgar’s most recent poll in the state of Pennsylvania had Biden leading by 2 points, but it was taken on Oct. 10-12, well before that last debate. It will be interesting to see if the group releases a new poll in that crucial state before Election Day.

Again, these are just polls, but these are from the two most reliable firms and are not affiliated with any corrupt media operation or university. They show what we already knew: All the momentum in this election is behind the President.

And then there is this. – The New York Times, no less, ran a piece on Monday citing new polling data indicating that President Trump is getting about 24% of the early votes cast thus far in … wait for it … Philadelphia!:

As The Last Refuge points out in this tweet, if Trump really does carry 24% of the Philly vote, Pennsylvania will not be close.

Apparently, the Biden/Harris Harris/Biden camp saw these polls too:

This is what a peaceful protest really looks like. – Incidentally, the Bidens and their evil handlers had to use an alternative route to get to their “rally.” Why? Because the main route to get there was overwhelmed with a sea of peaceful Trump supporters. Take a look:

This has been happening at every event Biden has held in PA over the past week. But you’re being brainwashed to believe that the guy who keeps speaking to empty backyards and parking lots is going to win in a landslide.

Yeah, no.

This is what will be left of the Biden/Harris Harris/Biden campaign come next Tuesday. – Hey, remember that big, yellow “Black Lives Matter” mural New York City’s buffoon Marxist Mayor Bill DeBlasio had painted right in front of Trump Tower this summer?

Here is what is left of it now:

See? Good things still can happen in the Big Apple.

He’s an elderly, demented Jeb! Bush now. – Creepy Uncle McWifeMolester ventured out of his basement on Monday to prove that he’s still alive and can move around without his handy IV. Things went about as we would have expected:

If you still think the Little Menace to Society, Anthony Fauci, is a credible person, watch this video of him being completely dismantled by… wait for it … Joe Biden and Kamala Harris:

Seriously, any questions? No? Good.

Finally, with Halloween coming up, I wanted to present you with the scariest video you will see this entire week. Watch it with the sound off and tell me I’m wrong:

Yikes!

That is all.

Get Ready for “All COVID All The Time” Through Election Day

So, we’re back to the “All COVID All The Time” narrative in our national and local corrupt news media. Following the horrific debate performance by Quid Pro China Joe Biden on Thursday, the Democrats and their corrupt media toadies have decided that whipping up yet another round of hysteria about the China Flu is the only hope of getting their addled, elderly guy across the finish line.

Thus, the full court press began on Friday, the day on which new “cases” of COVID-19 supposedly reached a new high since June. Sure it did.

There was Creepy Uncle McWifeMolester himself, venturing out of his basement abode to make a speech to another empty room in which he laid out is super-terrific-China-Flu-fighting-plan that would include a national mask-wearing mandate, another round of massive economic shut-downs and closing of Interstate travel.

Yeah, that’s the ticket!

There was the little societal menace Anthony Fauci pontificating on CNN, saying that even with a vaccine -which he knows full well will only be marginally effective – we’re all gonna have to stay locked in our homes and keep wearing masks whenever in public through not just the end of this year, not just the end of 2021, but through the end of 2022 if he has his way, which he certainly will under a Biden/Harris co-presidency.

There was Jack Tapper with his permanently-wrinkled brow, showing great concern and artificial empathy as the little menace droned on, playing his role to perfection. And there was the army of Blue-check Twitter wonders, repeating Fauci’s sage advice as if it were the gospel handed down from Mount Sinai, even though none of them believe in the gospel and the little menace has been 100% wrong about every aspect of this pandemic since the ChiCom government intentionally let it loose on the world last November.

Just how wrong has the little menace been? Newly-discovered and released emails show that that Fauci actually signed off on a World Health Organization-sponsored press release supporting China’s response to the pandemic.

No, I’m not kidding. From a report at JustTheNews.com:

 

Emails obtained by Judicial Watch and the Daily Caller News Foundation via a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit show that White House coronavirus adviser Anthony Fauci in late January approved of a World Health Organization-sponsored press release supporting China’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The email refers to the Global Preparedness Monitoring Board, an independent advisory body created by WHO and the World Bank Group. It specifically notes “consensus for the GPMB to issue a statement supportive of countries’ (especially China) and WHO response efforts, and to call for urgent actions to further strengthen global preparedness and response to this outbreak.”

“Looks fine,” Fauci responded. “Please see my comments in attached document.”

[End]

“Looks fine.” Well, sure it looked fine to Fauci, who appears to be just fine with anything that is designed to destroy the U.S. economy and our society at large.

It was Fauci, after all, who thought “15 days to flatten the curve” was the right idea back in March. We’re currently in, what, Day 200 or so of that futile effort, give or take a few.

It was also Fauci, after all, who told us on one of his myriad national TV appearances that wearing masks has no effect on this virus, none at all, and was just a waste of time. Now, he’s telling us that we all need to keep wearing these masks – even at home and in the car – for the next two years, and maybe longer.

But of course, he himself is exempt, as we saw at Nationals ball park a couple of months ago:

Dr. Anthony Fauci warns Marlins COVID-19 outbreak could put MLB season 'in danger' - CBSSports.com

Well, of course he exempts himself, because he knows the damn masks have zero effect on this virus, which is in fact consistent with what the actual science on the subject tells us.

But never mind the science and the dozens of times Fauci has contradicted his own advice in public and in his seemingly-daily TV appearances; there is an election to be influenced, so he and Tapper and the whole crew are going to spend the next 10 days whipping up as much false hysteria about the China Flu as they can manage, all in an effort to get their Unfrozen Caveman Candidate over the finish line.

Yes, it’s despicable; yes, it’s depraved; yes, it’s demented, disgusting and deplorable. But hey, these are Democrats and their media toadies we’re talking about here – you expected something else?

That is all.

Tuesday News Roundup: Trump Dumps on Fauci, CNN Analyst Goes Toobin and Gallup’s Awful News for Biden

No matter how bad your day was on Monday, it was not as bad as the day that CNN Lead Legal Analyst and general all-round hack Jeffrey Toobin had. Toobin was suspended by his other employer, The New Yorker Magazine, when it was revealed that he had whipped it full-on out during a recent staff ZOOM call.

But it gets worse: Toobin not only whipped it out during the call, but then went on to engage in the act of – ummmm, how should I characterize this? –  “pleasuring” himself live and on camera. No, I am not making this stuff up.

From a report at the New York Post:

The New Yorker star writer and CNN chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin exposed himself on a Zoom call — and has now been suspended from the magazine, a report said Monday.

The incident happened during an online meeting between magazine colleagues and WNYC workers last week, sources told Vice.

“I made an embarrassingly stupid mistake, believing I was off-camera,” Toobin later copped to Vice in a statement.

Toobin his own horn: Writer reportedly masturbated during New Yorker Zoom call

“I believed I was not visible on Zoom. I thought no one on the Zoom call could see me. I thought I had muted the Zoom video.

“I apologize to my wife, family, friends and co-workers.”

A spokeswoman for the New Yorker said, “Jeffrey Toobin has been suspended while we investigate the matter.”

CNN added in a statement that Toobin, a Harvard Law School grad, would be taking time off from the cable network, as well.

“Jeff Toobin has asked for some time off while he deals with a personal issue, which we have granted,” CNN said in a statement.

[End]

So, just a little piece of advice here: Whenever you are on a business ZOOM call and the topic turns to what you will be doing over the coming weekend, do not under any circumstances tell your fellow participants that you are “fixin’ to go Toobin.” They may not understand.

Holy crap.

At an event attended by more than 20,000 in Arizona yesterday, President Donald Trump referred to CNN as a bunch of “dumb bastards.” 

If I could vote for this man a million billion times, I would gladly do it.

Take a look at this crowd:

But you’re supposed to believe as a matter of faith in media-generated polls showing the man who draws these enormous crowds everywhere he goes is trailing the guy who has spent his entire campaign speaking to empty parking lots and back yards.

The President also went after the little menace to American society, Dr. Anthony Fauci, in a campaign phone call that oddly also allowed fake reporters to listen in, saying at one point, “People are tired of hearing Fauci and all these idiots, these people, these people that have gotten it wrong. Fauci is a nice guy, he’s been here for 500 years, he called every one of them wrong.”

Truer words were never spoken.

After those remarks were reported in the corrupt news media, the President doubled down in a pair of tweets:

Again, all 100% true. A mere firing is far too easy a fate for the little societal menace who has done so much to facilitate the destruction of our constitutional freedoms and destroy the greatest economy on earth. Far, far too easy.

As of this morning, the New York Post’s Twitter account remains frozen for the 6th consecutive day for having reported the truth about the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop.

Also as of this morning, Creepy Uncle McWifeMolester embarks on his 3rd day of isolation, hooked up to his trusty IV so he can be fully medicated for Thursday night’s final debate. I still believe the President should refuse to participate in that debate, and fully explain my reasoning in another post this morning.

Back to the polls: Wonder why the media-sponsored polls are so far off from anything resembling reality? Just take a look at this: The Gallup organization released its new “party affiliation” national polling data on Monday, and the results are extremely bad for the polling industry and the Democrat Party.

That’s right: 28% R, 27% D and 42% Independent.

So, what is the breakdown most of the media-generated polls are using? Well, most of them use the breakdown from the data compiled just before the 2016 election, which was:

36% D, 27% R and 31% Independent, a 9-point edge for the Democrats.

Oh.

But wait, it gets better! Other polls have been using the breakdown from just before the 2018 mid-term elections, which was:

38%D, 27%R and 31% Independent, a whopping 11 point edge for the Democrats.

Oh.

Thus, now you know just one more reason why you should not spend a moment of time trusting any poll sponsored by any media outlet. These polls are hopelessly corrupt, and specifically and intentionally designed to push a false narrative of Biden holding a huge lead in order to suppress the Trump vote.

When you adjust these polls for the real breakdown of the 2020 electorate, Biden is in fact well behind and is going to lose, bigly.

That is all.

Sunday News Roundup: The Media’s Odd QAnon Obsession and Chris Wray Gets Another Letter

I’m old enough to remember when Saturday Night Live and Jim Carrey were both funny. It doesn’t seem like that long ago. Oh, well.

CNN continues the media’s weird obsession with QAnon. – This has been the strangest part of the entire year in 2020, and that’s saying a ton. The media’s obsession with QAnon, a web-based loose association of people who believe in a bunch of stuff that no one can really describe and that only a tiny fraction of 1% of Americans have even heard of, is truly stunning and frankly inexplicable by any real journalistic practice.

Literally every major mainstream media outlet has done multiple major expose’s on this topic, attempting to portray the completely peaceful group as some sort of existential threat to America. As I noted on Thursday, Savannah Guthrie is so consumed by QAnon that she actually led off President Trump’s townhall on NBC Wednesday night with a demand that he condemn the group. 99% of viewers no doubt looked at their spouses and said, “what in the hell is a QAnon?” when Guthrie went into her vicious diatribe on the subject.

The only way to rationalize all of this attention on such a “nobody in the country gives a damn” subject is that it must be an enormous topic of discussion at all the right DC Swamp and Upper East Side dinner parties. Because virtually no one outside of the Washington DC/New York City media/Democrat propaganda bubble knows anything about it.

Think about it: Has the clerk at your local grocery store or barista at your favorite coffee shop ever struck up a conversation with you by asking, “So, what do you think about that whole QAnon deal, huh?” Yeah, that’s not happening. Not at all. Not anywhere.

Anyway, CNN has yet another long, tedious story about the group today, and maybe you should go read it if you have any interest in it. I really don’t, but it is just extraordinary how this media obsession with such a non-issue continues. I made it down to the sub-header that reads “QAnon only hurts people; it has helped nobody,” and realized I just couldn’t stomach the rest.

Bottom line here: CNN and the rest of the news media must be terribly worried about the pro-Trump, anti-pedophilia message coming from QAnon; otherwise, it is impossible to explain the level of uniformly negative attention they have given to this obscure group throughout 2020.

Director Wray! Paging Director Christopher Wray! – Senator Ron Johnson, Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, lobbed a new letter into the Hoover Building, which serves as the headquarters for America’s dumpster fire FBI. The letter, co-signed by Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley, demands that Wray stop withholding key materials from the committee that are in his possession.

Coming as it does barely two weeks prior to Election Day, when Wray is praying Joe Biden will win and thus emancipate him from having to follow the law in any way, shape or form, I’m guessing the new missive from these two senators was immediately filed away in Wray’s enormous dumpster for the next round of burning.

And now we know why Facebook’s “policy” is very simple: Protect Joe Biden. – From our “you could never make this stuff up, folks” file comes the news that Joe Biden’s former “special policy advisor” for the Ukraine, a woman named Anna Makanju, is now a senior executive at Facebook who leads the social media monopoly’s efforts to “ensure election integrity on the platform.”

Oh.

See? I told you. You just could never make this stuff up.

Does this seem weird to you? Because it seems weird to me. – Thousands of women gathered in Washington DC on Saturday for another depraved “Women’s March.” The reason for their event? Why, to protest the elevation of a … wait for it … WOMAN, Amy Coney Barrett, to the Supreme Court.

Again, you could never make this stuff up.

By the way, here’s a photo of the event:

Hundreds protest nomination of Amy Coney Barrett in Washington DC

Oddly, no one in the corrupt news media who invariably complain about the lack of “social distancing” at Trump rallies uttered a peep in protest of this event. Nor did our little societal menace, Anthony Fauci, have any negative words to say about it, although he will tell you you can’t have your kids go trick or treating or have your family over for Thanksgiving this year.

But hey, Fauci’s just another Democrat, and thus a lying hypocrite, something we’ve known all along.

Speaking of lying hypocrites, how about the folks at the World Health Organization? – The chart below shows the WHO’s alleged count of seasonal flu cases from the first of April through the end of September during both 2019 and 2020:

Do you see anything that strikes you as just a bit odd about that 2020 chart, as compared to 2019, which was a pretty normal year for influenza? I mean, if you aren’t Anthony Fauci trying to be a menace to American society, that is.

Doesn’t it strike you as odd that the WHO is claiming that the entire world has seen virtually ZERO cases of seasonal flu since last April? I mean, the bars are barely visible there.

Do you really believe that this year, the seasonal flu has gone pretty much completely dormant? Or do you suppose that it is far more likely that that all of the seasonal flu cases are suddenly being classified as “COVID-19” for political reasons?

This really isn’t hard, folks. You are being brainwashed to continue to accept Fauci’s edicts into perpetuity. If you think this is all going just go away once we have a vaccine available, you haven’t been paying attention to what has been happening thus far related to this virus and the media/Democrat propaganda surrounding it.

Pay attention. Let your kids go trick or treating, for gosh sakes. Have your family over for Thanksgiving. Give Fauci the finger and live your lives like Americans.

That is all.

Wednesday News Roundup: China Scientist Drops a Bombshell and DOJ Convenes a Bolton Grand Jury

Let’s all remember that Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates and Barack Obama directed hundreds of millions to this lab and its “research”. – Last night, Tucker Carlson interviewed a Chinese virologist named Dr. Li-Meng Yan. Ms. Yan worked at the WHO reference lab in Hong Kong, one of the top research labs on earth, during the time the China Virus was released from the virology research lab outside of Wuhan.

She told Carlson that the China Virus was created in that lab and the release of the Virus was committed intentionally by the Chinese communist government.

From a story at Fox News:

Carlson specifically asked Dr. Li-Meng Yan whether she believed the Chinese communist party released the virus “on purpose.” “Yes, of course, it’s intentionally,” she responded on “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”

Yan said more evidence would be released but pointed to her own high-ranking position at a World Health Organization reference lab as a reason to trust her allegation.

“I work[ed] in the WHO reference lab which is the top coronavirus lab in the world, in the University of Hong Kong. And the thing is I get deeply into such investigation in secret from the early beginning of this outbreak. I had my intelligence because I also get my own unit network in China, involved [in] the hospital … also I work with the top corona[virus] virologist in the world,” she said.

“So, together with my experience, I can tell you, this is created in the lab … and also, it is spread to the world to make such damage.”

Yan’s comments conflicted with the opinion of Dr. Anthony Fauci, a White House coronavirus adviser, who previously cast doubt on the idea the virus was artificially created. In May, he told National Geographic: “If you look at the evolution of the virus in bats, and what’s out there now is very, very strongly leaning toward this [virus] could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated—the way the mutations have naturally evolved.”

…

In response, her former employer, the University of Hong Kong, criticized her account. A press release noted “that the content of the said news report does not accord with the key facts as we understand them.”

“Specifically, Dr Yan never conducted any research on human-to-human transmission of the novel coronavirus at [the University of Hong Kong] during December 2019 and January 2020, her central assertion of the said interview.”

Yan, who said she was one of the first scientists in the world to study the novel coronavirus, fled China and currently fears retaliation. She was allegedly asked by her supervisor at the University/WHO reference lab, Dr. Leo Poon, in 2019 to look into the odd cluster of SARS-like cases coming out of mainland China at the end of December 2019.

[End]

So, who are we to believe, a scientist who is placing her life in clear danger by making these allegations, or a lifelong bureaucrat who steered millions of dollars to the lab from which the virus was clearly released?

Doesn’t seem like a real tough question.

This also happened on Tuesday:

From a story at the Washington Examiner:

The Justice Department opened a criminal inquiry into whether former White House national security adviser John Bolton unlawfully disclosed classified information in his latest book.

A grand jury convened and issued subpoenas for communication records from Simon & Schuster, the company that published The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir, as well as from Javelin, Bolton’s literary agency, according to multiple reports on Tuesday.

“We are aware of reports that grand jury subpoenas have been issued seeking information concerning the publication of Ambassador Bolton‘s recent book,” Bolton’s lawyer, Charles Cooper, told the Washington Examiner. “Ambassador Bolton emphatically rejects any claim that he acted improperly, let alone criminally, in connection with the publication of his book, and he will cooperate fully, as he has throughout, with any official inquiry into his conduct.”

[End]

Oh, my, oh, my, oh, my, my, my. Whether he ends up being prosecuted and convicted or not, the decision to publish this book is going to end up costing Mr. Bolton far more money in legal fees than whatever money he may make from it. Couldn’t happen to a nicer warmonger.

No critical race theory training at CDC after all. – After President Trump ordered a halt to all training sessions on the evil “critical race theory” within federal agencies, some Obama holdover at the CDC decided they would move ahead with that agency’s sessions anyway:

Yesterday, the Director of the OMB, Russ Vought, announced that that bit of subversion had been halted:

There is still justice in the world.

A beautiful day for a peace deal. – As I covered elsewhere this morning, the Democrat/media Axis of Propaganda was beside itself with rage on Tuesday as President Trump was having the temerity to bring actual peace between three nations in the Middle East.

Katie Pavlich posted these photos, which captured the beautiful setting at the White House:

Blessed are the peacemakers. Thank you, President Trump.

Today’s Democrat Party-sponsored Riot Update – Portland, aka Riot City USA, had a fourth straight day of no rioting following the DNC stand down order issued last Friday due to bad polls. But real journalist Andy Ngo reports that the Democrat-paid organizers are getting ready to mount a new offensive soon:

As I pointed out yesterday, the past few days of relative calm are just a lull in the action. Expect the death and destruction to mount back up soon.

There was some action in Philadelphia, where Democrat-sponsored BLM terrorists held what CNN and MSNBC would claim was a “largely peaceful” rally that included these scenes:

Ask yourselves this: Why do Democrat mayors force their police officers to put up with this kind of crap? That woman is a feral animal who should have been arrested, taken to jail, and booked for assaulting a police officer. She needs to be in custody for her own safety and for the safety of those around her.

Saturday News Roundup: Portland Rioters Up the Ante Again as Biden Promises to Shut the Country Down

This is a really strong point. – President Trump put out the following tweet this morning, and it is worth noting:

Did you know that no Democrat presidential nominee has even set foot in Wisconsin since 2012? And this year, after cancelling their planned convention in Milwaukee and moving the fake convention to Delaware for no good reason, the Democrat Party doesn’t even have to good grace to try to steer a little attention Milwaukee’s way.

Prior to 2016, Wisconsin had been a reliable Democrat stronghold in presidential races. The Fainting Felon was so confident of carrying the state that she didn’t bother to hold a single campaign stop there. Big mistake.

Surely the Biden handlers aren’t dumb enough to make the same error again, are they? Don’t necessarily bet on that. Yesterday, word out of the campaign was that it intends to continue its Hidin’ Biden strategy, keeping their Unfrozen Caveman Nominee in the basement of his home while having the younger, more coherent Kamala Harris do all the hard work out on the campaign trail.

Who knows? Maybe this strategy can work in a general election. Besides, when you are putting up a candidate who doesn’t know where he is most day, keeping him in a single location is most likely far less risky than sending him out there to actually meet and talk to people.

Uh, listening to “scientists” to the exclusion of everyone else is why we’re in an economic recession, Joe. – Also on Friday, Creepy Uncle Quid Pro Handsy Farty China Joe Biden promised to shut the country down again on the advice of Anthony Fauci:

That should make everyone feel better, huh?

Speaking of listening to the wrong scientists… – In a terrific piece in the Wall Street Journal, Kimberly Strassel looks back at the Biden/Obama administration’s disastrous handling of the H1N1 virus back in 2009-10.

Where more than 5 million Americans have been infected by COVID-19 this year, more than 60 million Americans contracted H1N1. It was only through the grace of God and incredibly good luck that H1N1 was not nearly as deadly as COVID-19 that America did not suffer an enormous calamity during that time.

From the Strassel piece:

The Ebola example is designed to divert attention from a more relevant comparison: the H1N1 swine-flu outbreak of 2009-10. Democrats don’t like to talk about H1N1, because it didn’t go well. If it had been as deadly as Covid-19, the toll would have been catastrophic. The history is a powerful reminder that governments can’t stop a virus—although they can make epidemics worse.

H1N1 began much like corona, with panicked stories in late April 2009 about a novel “hybrid” flu strain in Mexico that was popping up in the U.S. It was even more alarming, in that it especially affected children. Yet the new administration began with a muddled message. Mr. Obama encouraged calm, while Mr. Biden rambled a warning about staying off airplanes and public transport—prompting backlash. “Biden’s flu gaffe a headache for Obama,” read one headline.

Within days, some 30 states had suspected cases, and by April 27 the U.S. had its first death, a 23-month-old child. Other countries started shutting facilities, telling citizens to stay home, quarantining visitors. The Obama administration still had no idea how deadly the disease was, though the World Health Organization called the outbreak a threat to “all humanity,” and health experts predicted hospitals would be overloaded.

The administration nonetheless took a resigned approach to its spread. Mr. Obama didn’t close the Mexican border, saying that would “be akin to closing the barn doors after the horses are out.” His officials did declare a health emergency (Mr. Obama was golfing that day) and distributed the national stockpile (which they never replenished). The administration recommended schools “consider” closing if experiencing an outbreak, though the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention chief said this might not help with spread and warned about taking kids out of classrooms. No one considered a national lockdown, especially not an administration focused on a fragile economic recovery. Mr. Obama promised to “control” the “impact” of the virus—not the virus itself. He asked Congress for all of $1.5 billion.

Authorities grew more optimistic as H1N1 turned out to be less deadly than had been feared, but they still faced the risk of an uglier strain in the fall. Team Obama promised 100 million doses of vaccine by mid-October. (A flu vaccine is easier to produce than a coronavirus vaccine). But government setbacks in production, manufacturing and dosing protocols resulted in only 11 million doses, prompting national outrage. By that point, the CDC estimated 22 million Americans had been infected, 36,000 children hospitalized, and 540 kids had died.

[End]

Guess who the Obama administration mainly relied upon for advice during that epidemic: Anthony Fauci. In yesterday’s interview, Biden said “we can’t get the economy going again until we control the virus.” Anthony Fauci has been in this job for more than 40 years and in all that time has failed to control a single virus.

If we keep listening to that little menace, it will be our nation’s downfall.

Meanwhile, in Portland, Oregon… – The riots raged on in Portland for the 84th straight night, as the Democrat-sponsored and funded rioters grew increasingly violent and aggressive, safe in the knowledge that, if arrested, they will quickly be released by the local Soros-funded District Attorney.

Here is some of what the great Andy Ngo informed us about overnight:

In response to last night’s Democrat-sponsored mayhem, President Trump tweeted a plea to communist Democrat Mayor Ted Wheeler and Governor Kate Brown to request federal help:

But the Democrats love this stuff – it is their creation, after all. So, the President will be waiting in vain for his desired invitation.

If you live in Portland and have the means to get out of there, now’s the time. Because it’s only going to get worse.

That is all.

CDC Pushes the Latest False Narrative About “Controlling” COVID-19

You are the frog, and they are slowly boiling you. – In March, the CDC, along with doctors Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx, assured President Trump that we could control the viral gift from China if we just had everyone stay at home for two weeks. “Two weeks to flatten the curve,” they said. Remember that? I do.

Then, when that didn’t work, the CDC, along with doctors Fauci and Birx, assured us all that we could control the Wuhan virus if we all stayed home for another month, washed our hands 32 times a day and practiced something called “social distancing” whenever we went out to the grocery store. Remember that? I do.

When that didn’t work either, the CDC and doctors Fauci and Birx, after having spent two months telling us all that masks don’t really do a damn thing to stop the spread of this Chinese plague, suddenly did an about face and began assuring us that, hey, all data and science to the contrary, we really can slow the spread of the virus if we would just practice social distancing, wash our hands 32 times a day, and wear a mask. Dr. Birx even told us that we should turn the masks into a fun thing, a fashion statement like her omni-present scarves. Remember that? I do.

We’ve since been put through another dozen or two story changes by the CDC and doctors Fauci and Birx, and today the story from the CDC is changing again, and they’re putting it in multiple choice terms. From a story at CNBC:

The U.S. could get the coronavirus pandemic under control if most Americans wear masks, embrace social distancing and practice good hand hygiene for up to three months, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Friday.

“It’s in our hands, within our grasp,” CDC Director Robert Redfield told reporters on a conference call. “But it is going to require all of us to embrace these mitigation steps. And we’re going to need to do that four, six, eight, 10, 12 weeks and then we will see this outbreak under control.”

[End]

Get that? We can “control” the coronavirus in either 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12 weeks, according to CDC Director Redfield.

What does this tell us? Well, pardon my language, but it tells us that Dr. Redfield doesn’t have a god damn clue whether or not he and his worthless agency can ever “control” this virus. Which is not at all surprising, given that, since its founding 76 years ago, the CDC has never been able to “control” any of the common, seasonal flu viruses that preceded COVID-19.

Oh, and guess what else? Despite all the assurances we have received from Redfield, Birx and especially Fauci over the past 5 months that what we really need is a “vaccine,” that story is now shifting as well. Early this week, Fauci admitted that any “vaccine” will probably not be more than 50% effective, i.e., just like the “vaccines” we’re supposed to take every year for the seasonal flu.

But it gets even better than that.

Today, the criminals who run the World Health Organization went even further, stating that, even after we have a “vaccine,” life will not return to “normal.”

This is all a huge fraud, folks. We are dealing with a virus that is no more deadly than the seasonal flu, a virus that impacts mainly the elderly and people with major pre-existing health issues, and we are being scammed by government officials to behave as if we are Londoners during the Nazi Blitzkrieg.

We are even terrorizing our young kids in the process. Check this out:

This 7 year-old child will be scarred for life by this incident. Anyone who has ever been in trouble at school knows you retain those memories forever. And we are doing this to our children all over this country right now. It is madness, it is abusive, it is cruel and it should be criminal for adults to treat children like this.

Yet our government officials, especially Democrats, and the media ghouls who function as their propaganda agents completely approve of this stuff.

You are the frog, and they are boiling you. The question is, how long will you take this societal madness before things start to boil over?

That is all.

Some Actual Useful Polling Data Shows Partisan Split on In-Person Voting, COVID Vaccine

They’re just giving their people what they want. – In case you’re wondering why Biden’s handlers insist on continuing to keep him in the basement, a new Axios/Ipsos poll provides the data. This poll shows that a whopping 68% of depraved Democrat voters are all a-skeered of in-person political campaigning and in-person voting.

From the Axios story:

By the numbers: 68% of Democrats said in-person, door-to-door political campaigning would carry a moderate or large risk to their health and safety. Just 46% of Republicans said the same.

  • Similarly, 63% of Democrats and 32% of Republicans said in-person voting would be at least moderately risky.

Between the lines: This is a vivid illustration of a challenge Democrats have faced since the spring. The poor response to the pandemic gives them a powerful campaign message, but has also taken away many of the tactical tools they’d normally use to press that advantage.

  • “Biden would not be credible if he was going out and doing MAGA-type rallies. His base would think he was being foolish,” said Cliff Young, president of Ipsos U.S. Public Affairs. ”Trump can get away with that because his base doesn’t see the same sort of risk out there.”

[End]

And there you have it. Democrat voters who tend to get their fake news from either CNN or the Perpetual Outrage Mob on Twitter have been brainwashed into believing that political rallies are somehow more deadly than the massive crowds of rioters they have supported for the last 3 months and that in-person voting is a deadly threat to their health, unlike going to the grocery store, which they have all done regularly for the last 5 months.

Thus, the Hidin’ Biden strategy fulfills the fondest wishes of the fantasy-based mindset held by the vast majority of loyal Democrat voters, who are always eager to be brainwashed by the corrupt news media. If any of that surprises you, you haven’t been paying close enough attention.

Meanwhile, the public isn’t buying the campaign by Bill Gates, Anothony Fauci and Big Pharma to convince Americans that the only way to deal with the viral gift from China is via the development of some miracle vaccine. A new poll conducted by NBC/Survey Monkey finds that less than half of those surveyed would be willing to trust such a vaccine.

From a story at NBC News:

WASHINGTON — Less than half of American adults say they would get a government-approved coronavirus vaccine if one becomes widely available, new data from the NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Tracking Poll show, with the majority unsure about getting the vaccine or saying they’re ruling it out entirely.

Forty-four percent of American adults say they would get the vaccine, with 22 percent saying they wouldn’t and 32 percent saying they aren’t sure.

[End]

Notably, a clear majority of Democrats who are easily influenced by the corrupt news media would be peachy-keen to take a Gates/Fauci vaccine. Who could have guessed, right?

This really is not at all surprising, is it? Gates has come to be regarded by a massive percentage of the U.S. population as your basic villain from a James Bond film. Meanwhile, Fauci has been wrong so many times about so many aspects of this pandemic that his word long ago lost any trust from most of the public. Big Pharma, meanwhile, is, well, Big Pharma, and pretty much everyone now understands that those companies’ business models rely on creating treatments that keep people dependent on their products for years, not on cures that actually get people off of their products.

So, we’re supposed to trust this combination of allied interests?

Yeahhhhh, no.

That is all.

Friday News Roundup: Fauci Goes off the Democrat Script and Portland Riots Expand Again

This is why any task force needs to involve competing points of view. – In case you missed it, Stanford University Doctor Scott Atlas was hired early this week to participate in the White House Coronavirus Task Force and offer a competing point of view to the little menace to society, Anthony Fauci.

Probably not coincidentally, the little menace had this to say about in-person voting yesterday:

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr.  Anthony Fauci says that if people follow appropriate precautions, safe in-person voting should be possible during the upcoming 2020 general election.

Fauci, who has risen to national prominence amid the protracted COVID-19 epidemic, made the comments to ABC News’s Deborah Roberts during a National Geographic event that aired Thursday.

“I think if carefully done, according to the guidelines, there’s no reason that I can see why that not be the case. For example, you know, when you look at going to a grocery store now in many regions and counties and cities that are doing it correctly, they have X’s every six or more feet. And it says, ‘Don’t leave this spot until the person in front of you left their spot.’ And you can do that, if you go and wear a mask, if you observe the physical distancing, and don’t have a crowded situation, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be able to do that,” Fauci said.

[End]

Oh. It appears that having a competing point of view sitting across the table from him talking about the real science involved in dealing with the China virus is suddenly encouraging Fauci to moderate his fealty to the Democrat/media script.

Funny how that works.

Let’s crank up that Clinton Foundation influence peddling machine again! – Doing her best impression of a virus that will not go away, The Fainting Felon said yesterday that she would not rule out accepting a cabinet post in a Kamala Harris, er, Joe Biden administration.

From a piece at Fox News:

“I’m ready to help in any way I can,” Clinton responded, “because I think this will be a moment where every American — I don’t care what party you are, I don’t care what age, race, gender, I don’t care — every American should want to fix our country… So if you’re asked to serve, you should certainly consider that.”

[End]

Of course, the Fainting Felon’s actual motivation here would be to make money, which is always her actual motivation. The Clinton Crime Family Foundation has fallen on hard times since the Grasping Grifter ran out of influence to peddle to hostile foreign nations, and no doubt the Clinton finances are being drained as well without the ability to charge the cost of their flights to the private islands owned by pedophiles to the Foundation as “business expenses.”

So why wouldn’t she take a cushy job in a Biden Administration? Mama gotta buy shoes.

They’re coming for what’s left of your healthcare, folks. – Make no mistake about it, if the Harris/Biden ticket wins in November, the days of you having employer-provided private healthcare insurance are severely numbered.

You don’t have to believe me: All you have to do is listen to Harris make the promise repeatedly on national television:

Take Ms. Harris at her word, and vote accordingly. This is not hard or complicated.

Meanwhile, out in Portland, Oregon… – The communist Democrat-sponsored riots continued for a 78th consecutive night, as Oregon state police disturbingly began to pull back their presence out of frustration that the local DA refuses to prosecute the rioters they arrest.

As always, we only  know about the truth on the ground in Portland thanks to the phenomenal efforts of real journalist Andy Ngo:

The Democrat Harris/Biden voters in Seattle took their riots into more residential areas of the city:

Also in Seattle yesterday:

This is only going to continue growing, folks. These people will not stop until they are stopped.

Sunday News Roundup: Portland Riots Get Worse and Fauci Reveals the Truth About a Vaccine

Those loud noises you hear are the sounds of climate alarmist heads exploding. – In his statement rolling out his executive orders on Saturday, President Donald Trump (I till never tire of typing those three glorious words) had the following to say about the “Green New Deal” and its juvenile sponsor, AOC:

“They want to raise everybody’s taxes, everybody, and they want to do the Green New Deal, which will decimate our country and decimate,” Trump said during a press conference at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey on Saturday.

“It’s ridiculous, it’s childish. I actually say the Green New Deal is childish. It’s for children, it’s not for adults,” he said, without referring by name to the policy’s key architect, New York Democrat Ocasio-Cortez.

[End]

Fact Check: He’s right.

The “Green New Deal” is in fact a childish and un-serious document, a series of socialist/communist policy proposals from a segment of our society that lives in a fanstasy world and wants to force the rest of us to either live there with them, or – preferably to them – die. Make no mistake about it, these people hate you and would much rather you were dead.

Thanks to President Trump for reminding everyone of that reality.

Speaking of reminders… – here is what societal menace Anthony Fauci had to say about the stupidity of wearing masks back in March:

“Right now, people should not be wearing m…there’s no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better, and it might even block a droplet. But it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And often, there are unintended consequences: People keep fiddling with the mask, and they keep touching their face.”

By the way, that advice given back in March was completely consistent with the little menace’s position on mask-wearing that he has held for many years. Yet, today, he has suddenly morphed into not only advocating the wearing of masks, but also the wearing of goggles to protect the eyes.

Ask yourself this: What changed? The science didn’t change. The data didn’t change. Just the politics and the priorities of his masters in the Democrat Party. That’s all that changed.

The man is a menace to our entire society.

Oh, hey, speaking of the little menace to society… – After spending the past four months breathlessly touting a miracle vaccine as the only answer to COVID-19, Fauci started walking back the hype:

Oh. You don’t saaaayyyyyy…

From a piece at The Hill:

White House coronavirus advisor Anthony Fauci said public health measures will likely still be needed to keep the coronavirus pandemic under control even with the development of a vaccine as it could end up being effective just half of the time.

“We don’t know yet what the efficacy might be. We don’t know if it will be 50 percent or 60 percent. I’d like it to be 75 percent or more,” Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said Friday during a webinar hosted by Brown University, according to CNBC.

“But the chances of it being 98 percent effective are not great, which means you must never abandon the public health approach,” he said.

[End]

Ok, so, what he is telling you here is exactly what I’ve been telling you since March: That a COVID-19 vaccine will be just like the annual flu vaccine, i.e., not a “vaccine” at all, but a treatment that is only going to be marginally effective.

Fauci’s final sentence there is very telling, and something he never focuses on because it won’t make him and Bill Gates any money: What we really should be doing as a nation is moving on with our lives and focusing on protecting the most vulnerable among us – the elderly and people with underlying conditions – and developing effective treatments for this virus that save lives of those who catch it.

You know, like Hydroxychloroquine, which Fauci also refuses to endorse since it won’t make him and Bill Gates any money, either.

This man is a menace. Period.

Meanwhile, in Portland… – The riots continued to escalate again last night, their 77th consecutive night without relief. As usual, we only know this through the efforts of real journalist Any Ngo, who risks his well-being every day to report the truth.

The Antifa/BLM threats to residents continue to escalate:

Oh, hey, guess what? The police declared a riot. Again.

Lots of arrests being made. But of course, the local Soros-funded DA just lets them right back out onto the streets:

At this point, it is once again obvious that communist Democrat Governor Kate Brown and communist Mayor Ted Wheeler have no intention of allowing their state and local police to protect the population and shut these rioters down.

These people will not stop until they are stopped. It’s not complicated.

That is all.

Deborah Birx Surrenders to her Character Assassin

Birx predictably caves to Pelosi. – In one of the most disgusting bits of DC Swamp Kabuki Theater we have seen during the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Deborah Birx played her role to the hilt on Sunday after despicable Nancy Pelosi had made rude and condescending comments about her performance over the past few months. Pelosi, of course, laughably contends Birx has been too loyal to the President and has failed to follow Anthony Fauci in making blatantly false and conflicting statements designed to whip up public hysteria.

So, what does Birx do to defend herself from the Speaker’s unfounded attacks? Why, she lavished praise on one of the most obviously corrupt politicians in American history and went all Fauci about the coronavirus, of course.

From a piece at ABC:

“I think the president is spreading disinformation about the virus and she is his appointee,” Pelosi said. “So I don’t have confidence there, no.”

Pelosi doubled down on her criticism of Birx again on Monday, taking her to task for not challenging Trump about the outbreak and the administration’s lack of a national coronavirus plan.

“I don’t have confidence and anyone who stands there while the president says, ‘Swallow Lysol and it’s going to cure your virus.’ … I don’t have confidence in somebody when the president says it’s a hoax, it’s magic,” Pelosi said on CNN. “She has enabled [him].”

“This administration has not had a strategic plan for the six months we’ve known about the virus,” the California Democrat continued. “There has to be some responsibility, so if the president is saying these things, who is advising him that this is OK and enabling that to happen?”

Birx responded to the “no confidence” comment on CNN on Sunday by complimenting Pelosi before defending her own credibility.

“I have tremendous respect for the speaker. And I have tremendous respect for her long dedication to the American people,” Birx said.

Raising a recent article from the New York Times, which portrayed Birx as someone who at times tailored her analysis of the pandemic to better suit the politics of the administration, Birx insisted her response is driven by data, not politics.

“I have never been called pollyannish, or nonscientific, or non-data driven,” she told CNN Sunday. “And I will stake my 40-year career on those fundamental principles of utilizing data to really implement better programs to save more lives.”

Birx also warned that the pandemic has entered “a new phase,” contradicting the president’s persistently optimistic predictions as he pushes schools to reopen for full in-person instruction and resists any reversals on reopenings.

“I want to be very clear: What we are seeing today is different from March and April. It is extraordinarily widespread. It’s into the rural as equal urban areas,” Birx told CNN. “To everybody who lives in a rural area, you are not immune or protected from this virus.”

When asked about a prediction there could be 300,000 deaths by the end of the year, Birx said, “Anything is possible.” She went on to emphasize social distancing and suggest that some Americans in multi-generational families should start wearing masks inside their homes and assume they already have the virus.

[End]

Let’s start by noting that ABC refuses to point out that Pelosi is outright lying when she accuses the President of telling people to “swallow Lysol,” something that never happened. Let’s also note that the President has never, not one time, referred to the virus itself as a “hoax” as Pelosi falsely contends in this piece without correction by ABC. He has referred to the media/Democrat efforts to whip up hysteria about it a “hoax,” and that is a perfectly accurate description of what the media and Democrats have done.

Now to Birx.

Her response is, in a word, pathetic. Her slavish praise of an utterly corrupt tyrant is undeserved and frankly disgusting. It is a sign of weakness and a gesture of surrender. Her comments about the virus entering a “new phase” simply parrot pronouncements Fauci has made repeatedly, offering fear without giving any specifics, a Fauci core competency. Her advocacy that families start wearing masks in the home – after telling the American public on national TV just 3 months ago that masks were completely ineffective at preventing the spread of the virus – amount to 17th century-style blood-letting quackery.

Prior to her Sunday interview, the White House properly defended Birx from Pelosi’s character assassination:

Indeed, the Speaker’s attacks on Birx’s character were so beyond the pale that I almost wrote a post on Sunday defending her myself, but I decided to hold off until I saw Birx’s response. I’m glad now I hit that pause button.

Following Birx’s unilateral surrender to the Speaker, the President had a very predictable response:

See, President Trump doesn’t like surrender monkeys and they don’t like him, which explains the whole “never Trump” movement led by gutless wonders like Stephen Hayes, Max Boot and Bill Kristol.

The worst mistake President Trump has made during this entire pandemic was to listen to Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx over the advice of other advisors. Following their advice is why our nation is in the situation it is in today.

The best response the President could have for the good of the nation today would be to say “Fine, Nancy, I don’t have any confidence in Dr. Birx either, and she’s fired. Come to think of it, Fauci’s fired, too” and start taking advice from real doctors who treat real patients, and from real parents who have real kids who have already lost a year of learning due to our national insanity over this virus.

Then we could all sit back and watch every leftist head on the face of the earth explode simultaneously. It would be glorious.

EPIC: Jim Jordan Pummels a Dissembling Anthony Fauci in Friday Hearing

Anthony Fauci, the most clear and present danger to the survival of the American Republic today, appeared before some committee or other in the House of Representatives Friday morning. There he had to face a Jim Jordan who was armed for bear, determined to expose Fauci for the raging hypocrite he truly is.

I don’t have time to transcribe the clip below, but you should take the time to watch and hear it. As you do, you will see Fauci repeatedly refuse to admit to the obvious fact that the enormous crowds of protesters and rioters we saw throughout the month of June and have continued to see in lesser numbers throughout July helped to spread the Wuhan virus. You will also see Fauci claim that he never opines about whether or not certain specific group activities – like going to church or going to the gym or going out to dinner – should be allowed or banned.

As you watch him make these claims to Mr. Jordan, remember that Fauci has in fact issued such opinions many, many times. He has in fact advocated that church attendance be drastically limited. He has in fact advocated for the closing of restaurants, bars, movie theaters, sporting events and many, many other types of businesses. His pronouncements and opinions have in fact served as the very basis for putting millions of working Americans out of jobs and destroying hundreds of thousands of American businesses over the past four months.

But, when challenged by Jordan to simply admit that enormous crowds of rioters, looters and bombers obviously would help to spread the virus, Fauci suddenly finds himself unable to express an opinion.

Watch:

This little man is a menace to your freedoms and to our very way of life.

Friday News Roundup: Americans Must Stop Listening to Fauci and Birx

The greatest deflection tactic in American history took place on Thursday. – Here it is:

Note the time stamp on that tweet. It was put out by the President 16 minutes after the Trump Administration released the GDP numbers for the second quarter. Those numbers weren’t good; but then, no one expected them to be good, given that the second quarter was when our country went literally insane on the catastrophic advice of Dr. Anthony Fauci (more on that little menace to society in a moment).

President Trump obviously didn’t want to see the corrupt new media mis-reporting on those numbers as the lead story for the next several days, so he put out the single most magnificent troll tweet since Twitter was invented. Every corrupt reporter and editor and talking head and idiot Democrat/communist in America immediately exploded with rage and hysteria, which was exactly the reaction the President had wanted to achieve. Coverage of the down economic quarter pretty much evaporated.

Late in the day, his goal achieved, the President explained the tweet by basically saying, ‘hey, I was just asking a question.’

Hilarious. He’s the cat-person with a laser pointer; the corrupt news media is his cat.

Birx and Fauci roll out their next tool to control your behavior. – In a TV interview on Wednesday, Dr. Anthony Fauci told the corrupt talking head that “If you have goggles or an eye shield, you should use it.” Thus does the media campaign to pressure governors and the President to require goggles or eye shields begin.

On Thursday, the Queen of Scarves, Dr. Deborah Birx, joined in the brainwashing campaign, saying “Here’s the thing about the face shield in addition to the mask: the mask is to protect others. The thing about the face shields – we think that that could protect the individuals and that it would decrease the ability for them to touch their eyes and spread [the] virus as well as those droplets coming towards them.”

Remember: These are the very same two “doctors” who just 3 months ago were telling you not to wear masks because they are ineffective at stopping the spread of a virus and are actually harmful to your own health. But now, masks have somehow become the key to everything. You must wear them, not only when you enter a store or restaurant or gym or any other public facility, but anytime you freaking go outside.

It’s not about protecting your heath, it’s about controlling your behavior.  These are not just random remarks by these two “doctors”: They are intentional, calculated statements designed to start another media-led panic. Why? Because the “case” numbers related to the China virus are once again falling.

You are the frog, and they are boiling you.

Speaking of media-led panic campaigns… – The corrupt national media will refuse to report it, but their panic campaign to demonize HydroxyChloroquine took another big hit on Thursday.

From a piece at the Federalist:

The Lancet, a peer-reviewed medical journal that published a 96,000-subject study indicting the efficacy of the politically controversial hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 has retracted its findings that the malaria medication led to an increased risk of death.

“Today, three of the authors of the paper, ‘Hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine with or without a macrolide for treatment of COVID-19: a multinational registry analysis”, have retracted their study,” The Lancet said in a retraction statement Thursday. “They were unable to complete an independent audit of the data underpinning their analysis. As a result, they have concluded that they ‘can no longer vouch for the veracity of the primary data sources.”

“We deeply apologise to you, the editors, and the journal readership for any embarrassment or inconvenience that this may have caused,” the authors of the study wrote.

The study was first published in May and was the largest ever conducted analyzing the impacts of hydroxychloroquine after President Donald Trump was reported to be taking the medication as a precautionary measure following possible exposure to the virus.

Legacy media meanwhile, with its animus for Trump, used the study to attack the president and his physician for taking a medication that had anecdotally shown potential promise in treatment of infection while posing few risks. Trump had previously touted the possible benefits of the medication approved by the Food and Drug Administration for emergency use during press briefings to reporters who pinned the death of an uninfected man who drank fish tank cleaner outside of medical guidance on the president.

[End]

Let’s all remember that Dr. Fauci himself – who praised HCQ’s effectiveness as a treatment for viral infections in 2005, and said he would himself prescribe it in early March – used this specific study as a means of bashing HCQ:

The man is a menace. He is a menace to our entire society. He has used his position and the media idolatry towards him as a platform to lie to us repeatedly and with malice aforethought. We will never be able to return to normalcy as a society until we shun him and Dr. Birx and reassert our constitutionally guaranteed freedoms.

Speaking of HCQ… – Fauci, Birx and their evil media minions took another big blow where HCQ is concerned yesterday. In Ohio, the Pharmacy Board withdrew a rule banning the use of HCQ, which was entirely motivated by political hatred towards President Trump. Why are the rescinding it? Because of complaints from actual, real doctors who want to prescribe it to their patients and are having great success with it as a treatment for COVID-19.

From a story at the Butler County Journal News in Ohio:

The Ohio Board of Pharmacy withdrew a rule preventing hydroxychloroquine from being sold in the state as treatment for coronavrius after Gov. Mike DeWine called for the board to halt the rule.

“As a result of the feedback received by the medical and patient community and at the request of Gov. DeWine, the State of Ohio Board of Pharmacy has withdrawn proposed rule 4729:5-5-21 of the Administrative Code,” read a statement from the board. “Therefore, prohibitions on the prescribing of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine in Ohio for the treatment of COVID-19 will not take effect at this time.”

The board will reexamine the rule with the help of the State Medical Board of Ohio, clinical experts and stakeholders to determine the next step.

The rule, which was scheduled to go into effect today, would prohibit pharmacies from selling or dispensing hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine for coronavirus unless the use is approved by the board’s executive director. The rule would also void all previous approvals of the drug.

The governor said in a statement Thursday that he agreed with Stephen Hahn, commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, that the decision to treat the virus with hydroxychloroquine should be between a doctor and patient.

[End]

Again, we must as a people ignore the edicts of Fauci and Birx, who are nothing more than tools of people who hate you and would rather you were dead. We can never return to normalcy until we shun them as the menaces to our society that they truly are.

Friday News Roundup: Fauci’s Errant First Pitch, Trump Cancels Convention, and the Truth About the Portland Riots

Not to be mean, but…well, yeah, ok, to be mean because this little menace to society richly deserves it. – Dr. Anthony Fauci, the Democrat operative who has worked so hard to destroy our nation over the last four months with his constantly-shifting, always-wrong narrative about the Wuhan Virus, threw out the first pitch at the Washington Nationals game last night.

Very predictably, it all went very, very, very wrong. Watch:

So, 15 feet short and 27 feet outside – every bit as accurate as anything he has had to say about the viral plague from China. The man is consistent if nothing else.

Bob Uecker Just A Bit Outside GIFs | Tenor

But keep your social distance and wear those masks, folks! – Here’s the little menace later, setting an example for the rest of America:

Yeah, you’ll never see that photo on CNN or MSNBC.

Dr. Fauci does not just kowtow to hypocrite Democrats, he personifies them.

But never fear, the little menace was still on the job earlier in the day, doing everything he can to continue to destroy America’s economy and society, in an interview with MarketWatch.

Here’s the headline of the story:

Anthony Fauci tells MarketWatch: I would not get on a plane or eat inside a restaurant

Holy crap.

 

Speaking of #EnemiesOfThePeople, here is how the New York Times is lying to its readers about the Portland riots today:

And here is the truth about the riots and the rioters, brought to you each and every day by a real journalist, Andy Ngo:

You will never see any of that reported by the New York Times or CNN or MSNBC or any of the three broadcast network news.

Enemies of the people, one and all.

This is hysterically funny. – Watch Charlie Hurt’s face as the dimwitted Marie Harf tries to avoid the question from Harris Faulkner, and find some way to blame Republicans for what is happening in cities Democrats have run into the ground for decades:

Honestly, it’s hard to know how she manages to dress herself each day. Maybe she doesn’t.

 

The climate alarmists are going after the polar bears again. – The good news is that 20 years ago, the climate alarmists assured us that all the arctic polar bears would be gone in 15 years because of “global warming”. That not only did not happen, but the population of polar bears actually multiplied.

The bad news is that the climate alarmists – supported as always by a slavish, corrupt news media establishment – are back going for polar bear gold again. Only this time, instead of just giving themselves a mere 15 years to be wrong, they’re giving themselves an entire lifetime so that none of them will be around to be mocked when the polar bears are still doing just fine in the year 2100.

Take a gander at this:

Yeah, that’s not going to happen, either. Just your dishonest climate alarm community, supported by your corrupt, fake news media, at work.

The lies and corruption never end.

Speaking of lies and corruption, watch for a Wuhan Virus miracle in Florida. – At his press conference on Thursday, President Trump announced that the RNC is cancelling the in-person part of the Republican National Convention, which was to be held in Jacksonville, Florida.

Thus, the Democrats and their corrupt toadies in the news media have achieved their goal. Don’t be surprised if the number of new COVID-19 “cases” suddenly begins to fall in the weeks to come.

Just as you were brainwashed by the media to believe you were obligated to elect a Black president in 2008; and just as you were brainwashed by the media to believe you were somehow obligated to elect a woman president in 2016; you are being brainwashed today to utterly and completely ignore all of the real data and science about the Wuhan Virus for purely political reasons.

This is nothing new, but it does grow more intense and focused and transparently dishonest with time.

That is all.

Celebrate: Navarro Op-Ed Signals White House Break With Fauci

Peter Navarro, the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy for President Donald Trump, grew weary of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s grandstanding and chronic flip-flopping in public long ago. Back in April, Axios reported on a confrontation Navarro had with the little menace to American society during a Coronavirus Task Force meeting at the White House:

Toward the end of the meeting, Hahn began a discussion of the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine, which Trump believes could be a “game-changer” against the coronavirus.

  • Hahn gave an update about the drug and what he was seeing in different trials and real-world results.
  • Then Navarro got up. He brought over a stack of folders and dropped them on the table. People started passing them around.
  • “And the first words out of his mouth are that the studies that he’s seen, I believe they’re mostly overseas, show ‘clear therapeutic efficacy,’” said a source familiar with the conversation. “Those are the exact words out of his mouth.”

Navarro’s comments set off a heated exchange about how the Trump administration and the president ought to talk about the malaria drug, which Fauci and other public health officials stress is unproven to combat COVID-19.

  • Fauci pushed back against Navarro, saying that there was only anecdotal evidence that hydroxychloroquine works against the coronavirus.
  • Researchers have said studies out of France and China are inadequate because they did not include control groups.
  • Fauci and others have said much more data is needed to prove that hydroxychloroquine is effective against the coronavirus.
  • As part of his role, Navarro has been trying to source hydroxychloroquine from around the world. He’s also been trying to ensure that there are enough domestic production capabilities inside the U.S.

Fauci’s mention of anecdotal evidence “just set Peter off,” said one of the sources. Navarro pointed to the pile of folders on the desk, which included printouts of studies on hydroxychloroquine from around the world.

  • Navarro said to Fauci, “That’s science, not anecdote,” said another of the sources.

Navarro started raising his voice, and at one point accused Fauci of objecting to Trump’s travel restrictions, saying, “You were the one who early on objected to the travel restrictions with China,” saying that travel restrictions don’t work. (Navarro was one of the earliest to push the China travel ban.)

[End]

Yesterday, in response to Fauci’s continuing efforts to undermine national policy in his myriad media appearances, Navarro penned a sterling op-ed for USA Today. As is his habit, Navarro is devastatingly succinct and precise in laying out the many reasons why Fauci deserves to be ignored in the nation’s ongoing efforts to effectively deal with the Wuhan Virus pandemic.

From the op-ed:

Dr. Anthony Fauci has a good bedside manner with the public, but he has been wrong about everything I have interacted with him on.

In late January, when I was making the case on behalf of the president to take down the flights from China, Fauci fought against the president’s courageous decision — which might well have saved hundreds of thousands of American lives.

When I warned in late January in a memo of a possibly deadly pandemic, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases was telling the news media not to worry.

When I was working feverishly on behalf of the president in February to help engineer the fastest industrial mobilization of the health care sector in our history, Fauci was still telling the public the China virus was low risk.

When we were building new mask capacity in record time, Fauci was flip-flopping on the use of masks.

[End]

There’s more, and you should go read the piece in full. The simple fact of the matter – as we have pointed out repeatedly here – is that Fauci has yet to get any single aspect of this viral gift from China right. As Navarro points out, the little menace has been wrong about everything, often with catastrophic results to our society.

Even now, Fauci is out in the media declaring that it would be “dangerous” for the U.S. to reopen schools this fall when literally every other nation on earth is opening their own schools and getting their kids back to learning. As clearly exhibited by his multiple love letter to Hillary Clinton and all of the selfies he has had taken with Clinton, Pelosi and other leftist luminaries, Fauci is nothing more or less than a tool of the Democrat Party who has worked from Day 1 to undermine America’s response to the virus, in the process intentionally undermining America itself.

Fauci himself admitted last week that he has not been allowed to brief the President in more than 2 months, and the fact that Navarro was allowed to author that op-ed clearly signals that his relationship with the White House has been officially severed.

That, folks, is a very good thing for our country.

That is all.

Tuesday News Roundup: Sessions’ Last Stand, Biden/Bottoms 2020, and Fauci is a Menace

Today is Beauregard’s last stand. – Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, the former do-nothing Attorney General who allowed Rod Rosenstein and Robert Mueller to run the Department of Justice for two solid years, makes his last stand today in Alabama. He trails opponent Tommy Tuberville by a wide margin in the polling leading into today’s GOP primary runoff election to determine which Republican gets to run Democrat Doug Jones out of the U.S. Senate.

In typical blunt fashion, President Donald Trump made his preference in this election known on Twitter yesterday.:

Just a reminder that everything that happened with the Soviet-style Mueller Special Counsel operation stemmed from Jeff Sessions’ own mendacity. This man is one of our country’s worst disasters, and fully deserves the electoral humiliation coming to him today at the hands of Alabama’s voters.

Speaking of our nation’s worst human disasters… – The leftist nitwits at the Dan Abrams operation “Mediaite” got a case of the vapors yesterday after a senior White House staffer shared a mean cartoon targeting Dr. Anthony Fauci, the man who has done more to destroy our nation’s economy and school system than any person alive.

From the piece at Mediaite:

White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications Dan Scavino publicly blasted White House Coronavirus Task Force member Dr. Anthony Fauci Sunday on Facebook.

Scavino posted a cartoon by conservative illustrator Ben Garrison which showed Fauci as a faucet flushing the economy down a sink, with labels including “Indefinite lockdown!” and “Shut up and obey!”

“Sorry, Dr. Faucet! At least you know if I’m going to disagree with a colleague, such as yourself, it’s done publicly — and not cowardly, behind journalists with leaks,” Scavino commented. “See you tomorrow!”

[End]

Looks like a pretty accurate cartoon. Mediaite’s only upset because cartoonist Ben Garrison captured the reality of Fauci and all the damage he has done and continues to do to our society so succinctly. The man is a menace to our very survival.

In case you missed it, Fauci complained to one eager reporter the other day that he has not briefed the President in “at least two months.” This is what we know in the real world as great and reassuring news. Given that Fauci has yet to be right about anything at all related to the COVID-19 pandemic, it seems like a peachy idea to keep him the hell away from the President so that policy decisions might be made on actually accurate information coming from others.

If Mr. Trump never speaks to this little menace again, America will be a much safer place.

She’s a leader with real leadership who is leading by exercising leadership with leading. She leads the entire nation by leading with leadership, and leads with more leadership than all those other non-leading leader losers hoping to become Joe Biden’s running mate. – Here is Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms’ argument for why she should become Joe Biden’s running mate:

Biden/Bottoms 2020! It will be the greatest bumper sticker ever!

Oh, please, please, please let this happen.

News you will not see reported on CNN or the New York Times, part 99,353:

This is what Fredo Cuomo and Jake Tapper refer to as a “civil rights group,” folks. You could never make this stuff up.

A sports journalist piece everyone should read. – Sports journalist Jason Whitlock, who famously called out the NFL and Black Lives Matter last week, published a terrific op-ed at OutKick.com yesterday. It’s a piece every American should read.

Here’s an excerpt:

It’s the media’s addiction to Twitter. We now crowdsource our ethics, standards and guiding principles. The Twitter mob is America’s ombudsman.

Journalism is dead. It’s been sick for a long time. The widespread usage of the internet placed journalism on life support in the 1990s. Facebook and Twitter pulled the plug.

Big Tech killed the greatest human experiment, the United States of America. You can’t sustain freedom and fairness with mob crowdsourced ethics and standards.  By definition, a mob is disorderly, riotous and lawless. A mob is unconcerned with truth.

The theory driving the importance of a “a free press” is that journalists will deliver truthful information to the public and the public will make good decisions based on that information.

Feed the public social media-friendly, clickbait narrative lies disguised as racial-justice truth and you provoke the kind of unrest currently sweeping this nation. Media black lies matter. They agitate old wounds, sow discord and distrust, undermine patriotism and prevent us from addressing real problems.

The annual murder of thousands of black men is a legitimate problem. Social media has us fixated on the annual murder of a half dozen. Black lies matter, especially when they’re used to conceal a political agenda detached from the advancement of freedom.

Journalists should not be political partisans.

[End]

As I keep telling you, the death of journalism threatens to become the death of our country if we do not find some way to hold the corporate, clickbait-focused media giants accountable for their intentional spreading of rank falsehoods. My one disagreement with Whitlock here is that he puts the main focus of his blame on social media, where these thousands of corrupt journalists manifest their outrageous biases every day.

But social media is just a facilitator here, a convenient platform. The truth is that the death of real journalism in our country took hold in our nation’s universities during the 1960s and 1970s with the new focus on “advocacy journalism” replacing the former focus on hard work, proper sourcing and the telling of the objective truth.

The central problem here is that for the last half century students in journalism schools all over the country have been brainwashed to believe that there is actually no such thing as objective truth. Once you lose the concept of truth, then all journalists feel justified in becoming fiction writers and reporters as they intentionally slant the “news” to favor their own personal pet causes.

Fundamentally, this is how a blatantly Marxist, domestic terrorist organization like Black Lives Matter gets turned into a “civil rights group” in the eyes of the entirety of the American media establishment.

The brainwashing will continue until every one of us submits.

America Must Hold the Corrupt News Media Accountable in Order to Survive

We must find a way to hold the corrupt corporate news media accountable before they destroy our country. – That’s been a consistent theme here at Today’s Campaign Update for four years now (today is the 4th anniversary of the very first Campaign Update posted on my Facebook page during the heat of the 2016 campaign), and it has become more urgent than ever. Because, as I noted yesterday, the media literally has the deaths of an untold number of Americans on its hands due to its focused disinformation campaign related to Hydroxychloroquine.

Dr. David Samadi, a Fox News medical contributor, put it this way on Twitter yesterday:

This is exactly the thing. Let’s remember that the media’s campaign to demonize the use of HCQ in treating COVID-19 provided cover to despot Democrat governors like Steve Sisolak in Nevada and Gretchen Whitmer in Michigan to temporarily ban the use of the drug for that purpose in their states. There is no question that that campaign, which included the knowing dissemination of bogus “studies” – one of which shamefully came out of the CDC – also intimidated doctors all over the country who might have otherwise prescribed HCQ to their patients and potentially saved their lives.

But while we focus our ire on our depraved news media establishment, we need to also remember the key role played by another prominent individual in all of this, a man who most assuredly knew better. Dr. Samadi called that person out as well:

Why indeed? To be clear: Dr. Fauci and the CDC have known since at least 2005 about the efficacy of HCQ in treating COVID-like viral infections. Yet, from the moment President Trump touted its use related to this virus at an early White House task force press briefing, Fauci has been in the media panning it. In those same media appearances, Fauci has focused on the promotion of incredibly expensive, unproven experimental drugs being developed by an array of Big Pharma companies in their quest to make billions off of this national health crisis.

Why? Why would he do that? Isn’t the answer obvious?

Fauci is the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), which is closely tied into and receives support from those same pharmaceutical manufacturers. Those Pharma companies essentially serve as NIAID’s lobby before congress, which helps to explain why a government institute that has consistently failed in its mission sports a $5 billion budget.

Oh.

HCQ is cheap, it is widely available and it has been used for decades mainly as a malaria treatment all over the world. There is no money to be made from HCQ.

For the corrupt, corporate news media, the motive initially seems less clear. That is, until you get to the next commercial break and suffer through yet another 90-second ad for some new drug with a mysterious name that was made up by a million dollar consultant.

This drug won’t cure you – because, hey, there’s no money in curing you – but it will dampen your symptoms at a very high price if you take it every day for the rest of your life. And, as you watch the images of some chubby 60 year-old who has the same ailment as you do leading a marching band through the streets of some Hollywood sound set designed to look like a 1950s town in middle America, you will want crave drug even as you sit through the 75 seconds of carefully-written legal disclaimers describing all of the horrible things that drug just might do to you instead of alleviating your symptoms.

The air time for that ad costs a bunch of money on NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC or even low-rated CNN. It is the life’s blood that keeps those fake news operations on the air.

Oh.

Let’s also be clear that the demonization of HCQ was not – as those corrupt media organizations contend – just a matter of them reporting the news. There is no question that it was a highly-coordinated effort –  complete with focus-grouped talking points that every reporter parroted word-for-word – that was motivated by the belief that demonizing that cheap, plentiful, well-understood drug would harm the President and his re-election chances.

This isn’t journalism- it’s a political campaign. Can any thinking person really doubt that if Barack Obama had endorsed HCQ, the media’s and Fauci’s reactions would have been entirely different? Like, 180 degrees different? Of course, they would have been.

Had Obama endorsed the drug, Governors Whitmer and Sisolak would have been demanding their legislatures allocate hundreds of millions of dollars to give the stuff away for free. They’d have ordered that every 7-11 in their state stock the stuff on their candy shelves and forced Girl Scouts to hand it out along with their cookies.

You all know this is true, don’t you? Of course you do.

The simple fact is that Americans are dead today because the news media and Democrat governors, supported by Anthony Fauci, treated HCQ not as the potentially life-saving medication that it is, but as a political football.

It’s easy to see how Fauci can and eventually will be held accountable for his serial mendacity about every element of this pandemic. If we are to ultimately survive as a society in its current form, America must find an effective way to hold these corrupt media organizations accountable as well.

That is all.

Wednesday News Roundup: Fauci is a Menace, an Environmentalist’s Apology, BLM/Antifa Shooting in Provo

Just one more reason to lock Dr. Anthony Fauci in a broom closet and lose the key. – Back in January, Dr. Fauci – who has never found a cure for any virus and is yet to get a single thing right about this one – assured us that COVID-19 presented no immediate threat to the United States.

Yesterday, during testimony before a Senate committee, Fauci said this about a new viral gift from China:

Why is this menace to our society still employed by the federal government, and still making media appearances on behalf of the Trump Administration? His ongoing presence in the national debate is even more malevolent and destructive than that of Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff.

That’s why the lone bright spot in yesterday’s hearing came from Dr. Rand Paul, Senator from Kentucky, who sliced, diced and ground Fauci’s unbridled hubris into a million pieces. From a report at Political Insider:

“Fatal conceit is the concept that central planning with decision making concentrated in a few hands can never fully grasp the millions of complex, individual interactions occurring simultaneously in the marketplace. It is a fatal conceit to believe any one person or small group of people has the knowledge necessary to direct an economy or dictate public health behaviour,” Senator Paul explained.

“I think government health experts during this pandemic need to show caution in their prognostications. It’s important to realize that if society meekly submits to an expert, and that expert is wrong, a great deal of harm may occur. When we allow one man’s policy or one group of small men or women to be foisted on an entire nation,” he continued.

Senator Paul gave the example of experts demanding school closures, in order to control the spread of the coronavirus. This is despite solid examples from all over the world, that show no surge in cases when schools open. Contact tracing studies in China, the U.K., Netherlands, and Iceland also failed to find a single case of child to adult infection.

“Perhaps our planners might think twice before they weigh in on every subject. Perhaps our government advisors might hold their tongue,” Paul argued.

“Why weigh in with these opinions that we have no knowledge of? They are forecasts that may well be wrong. Perhaps our experts might consider the undue fear they are instilling in teachers who are now afraid to go back to work. We shouldn’t presume that a group of experts somehow knows what’s best for everyone,” he added.

[End]

Dr. Paul did not call Fauci out by name, but it is obvious who he was referring to in his remarks. Whether Fauci, stewed as he is in a toxic mixture of arrogance and media adulation, took any of it to heart is doubtful.

This little man is a national menace.

Environmentalist Dr. Michael Shellenberger stands as a stark contrast to Dr. Fauci. Shellenberger is the rarest of rare individuals in the world of climate change environmentalism – an expert who understands the limits of his own ability to predict the future using the same kind of faulty computer models that once told us we would lose 2 million Americans to COVID-19, and who understands the incredible damage to global society that has been committed by those in his profession.

Yesterday, Shellenberger published a piece at Quillette.com titled, “On Behalf Of Environmentalists, I Apologize For The Climate Scare.” The title is self-descriptive of the content.

Here’s an excerpt:

On behalf of environmentalists everywhere, I would like to formally apologize for the climate scare we created over the last 30 years. Climate change is happening. It’s just not the end of the world. It’s not even our most serious environmental problem. I may seem like a strange person to be saying all of this. I have been a climate activist for 20 years and an environmentalist for 30.

But as an energy expert asked by Congress to provide objective expert testimony, and invited by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to serve as expert reviewer of its next assessment report, I feel an obligation to apologize for how badly we environmentalists have misled the public.

Here are some facts few people know:

  • Humans are not causing a “sixth mass extinction”

  • The Amazon is not “the lungs of the world”

  • Climate change is not making natural disasters worse

  • Fires have declined 25 percent around the world since 2003

  • The amount of land we use for meat—humankind’s biggest use of land—has declined by an area nearly as large as Alaska

  • The build-up of wood fuel and more houses near forests, not climate change, explain why there are more, and more dangerous, fires in Australia and California

  • Carbon emissions are declining in most rich nations and have been declining in Britain, Germany, and France since the mid-1970s

  • The Netherlands became rich, not poor while adapting to life below sea level

  • We produce 25 percent more food than we need and food surpluses will continue to rise as the world gets hotter

  • Habitat loss and the direct killing of wild animals are bigger threats to species than climate change

  • Wood fuel is far worse for people and wildlife than fossil fuels

  • Preventing future pandemics requires more not less “industrial” agriculture

I know that the above facts will sound like “climate denialism” to many people. But that just shows the power of climate alarmism.

[End]

Go read the piece in full. It’ll be the best 10 minutes you spend all day.

I keep telling everyone that BLM and Antifa are just different names for the same terrorist groups. – Yesterday in Provo, Utah, Black Lives Matter engaged in a dangerous escalation of its tactics, as one of the group’s activists actually shot a man who was attempting to escape from a mob of BLM thugs who had surrounded his car:

Despicably, the corrupt news media attempted to portray the driver as the bad guy, until enterprising people on Twitter slowed down and enhanced the video to clearly show that it was a BLM activist who did the shooting. The utter depravity of our news media today simply knows no depths.

This morning, Provo police announce they have arrested a suspect:

The police go on to say:

Police also arrested Samantha Darling, 27-year-old resident of Ogden City, and booked her into custody at the Utah County Jail for a charge of Obstruction of Justice and Rioting. The Provo Police Department extends its thanks to citizens…

who gave evidence and testimony to investigators and to allied agencies and officers who assisted this investigation, notably Ogden and Salt Lake City Police Departments. The investigation of criminal acts incident to protest events in Provo last night is ongoing.

[End]

Rumors flew yesterday of a second gunman on the opposite side of the street also drawing a pistol and aiming it at the vehicle, but no proof has come to light thus far.

Regardless, this incident demonstrates a very dangerous escalation of the Antifa/BLM insurgency in our country. It’s obvious that President Trump would prefer to avoid calling in the National Guard to put these riots down, but the escalating violence and animalistic behavior increasingly exhibited by these Marxist radicals, combined with the refusal by local officials to take effective action, could ultimately leave him no choice.

They’re shooting people now, Mr. President. The National Guard and your powers to declare national emergencies exist for a reason. Time is growing short to make use of them.

Tuesday News Roundup: Nike Takes a Dive, Fauci’s Putting on a Show, and the Truth About Texas

Being “woke” = going broke. – At least that appears to be the case for Collin Kaepernick-supporting Nike. In case you missed it, the woke shoe maker that seems to have contracts to supply the shoes and uniforms for most major sports teams across the globe somehow managed to report a princely $790 million loss for the 4th quarter of 2019.

The company blames part of the loss on store closures related to COVID-19, but that can’t be true, given that none of those closures took place until late in the first quarter of 2020. Nike also announced that it will be executing a big layoff as the result of its losses, which come on the heels of the massive, Kaepernick-focused advertising campaign it ran during the second half of 2019.

Here is a corporate BS-filled statement issued by Nike:

“Consumer Direct Acceleration is the next digitally empowered phase of our strategy,” Nike said in a statement. “We are building a flatter, nimbler company and transforming Nike faster to define the marketplace of the future. We are shifting resources and creating capacity to reinvest in our highest potential areas, and we anticipate our realignment will likely result in a net loss of jobs.”

[End]

Blah-blah-blah, yada-yada-yada, losses and layoffs. Bad management reaps bad results. Tough.

CNN’s Ryan Lizza is the Jim Acosta of Yameche Alcindors:

You just could never make this stuff up, folks. That question is something you might expect a snot-nosed 12 year-old junior high dumbass to ask. This is why the White House should never hold another press briefing and should revoke all press passes. These corrupt reporters are a pestilence on our country.

Ever wonder what Dr. Fauci does with that mask once he thinks the cameras have been turned off? – Now we know:

This man is a national menace who has lied to us every step of the way. For him, it’s all just a show.

Can’t get any real information about what’s happening in Texas related to COVID-19? – You are in that boat if you rely on TV or the newspapers for your “news.” They only report the top-line number, which is the number of new “cases,” a number we all know is hyper-inflated by hospitals so they can maximize revenue from the federal government.

If you want real, actual detailed information, you are left to go to Twitter, of all places. Specifically, you must go to Alex Berenson’s Twitter feed. Yesterday, he received an email from a senior executive at one of the state’s major ER chains of hospitals:

Here are the attachments (this is long but worth the read):

Bottom line is this:

– More people being tested means more “cases”;

– Virus is now showing up in a much younger group of patients than before, mainly because employers are telling anyone who sneezes or has the sniffles at work to go get tested;

– The vast majority of the new “cases” show very mild or no symptoms at all;

– Those admitted to the hospital see stays that are much shorter than seen during March thru May;

– Texas hospitals are not in danger in any way of being overwhelmed by this new outbreak.

Governor Abbott, unfortunately, is just another politician who has now overreacted by succumbing to the media’s panic porn about this surge in new cases, once again denying tens of thousands of Texans the right to make a living and shutting down thousands of businesses.

By its systematic refusal to report the full truth about what is really happening in Texas and other states where the number of cases is surging, our corrupt news media is, intentionally or not, destroying our country’s way of life and causing catastrophic damage to our economy. They are the very worst and most destructive class of people in our society today.

Wednesday News Roundup: Fauci Follies, Rioters Give Notice, and Barr Knows it was a Coup

Tired of all this WINNING yet? – Stocks rose again on Tuesday, with the NASDAQ achieving its 21st record-high closing level of 2021. Even better, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that U.S. housing sales leapt by a whopping 16.6% from April to May, and that May’s level of sales was 12.3% higher than in May 2019. This is what the Democrats and their corrupt toadies in the nation’s news media want to destroy.

Don’t expect there to be a vaccine for the Wuhan Virus, folks. – Students of strategic communications will understand that Dr. Anthony Fauci made that pretty clear in testimony to congress yesterday. Look carefully at the statement he made there:

“I still think there is a reasonably good chance that by the very beginning of 2021, that if we’re going to have a vaccine, that we will have it by then,” he said.

Now, NBC, Vox.com and other leftist fake news outlets reported on that in a way that makes it sound as if Fauci is saying we will have a vaccine by the end of this year. But is that what he really said there?

Break that carefully worded, pre-prepared statement down: “I still think…” “there is a reasonably good chance…” “if we’re going to have a vaccine…” “we will have it by then.”

So, Fauci “thinks” – he doesn’t feel confident, he isn’t sure – “there is a reasonably good chance” – define “reasonably” please – “IF we’re going to have a vaccine” – not “when” – “we will have it by then.” That’s a lot of weasel words in one sentence, folks.

That statement does not convey confidence. In fact, it conveys that the speaker has a tremendous amount of uncertainty, and perhaps even a knowledge that he really doesn’t believe we will have a vaccine – at least not an effective one – at all. So he feels the need to use this highly-qualified language in order to avoid being accused of lying later. Which, given Fauci’s track record of never having found an effective vaccine for any previous virus during his 40 year career, makes complete sense.

If you’ve been thinking that it wouldn’t be any big deal to just shut everything down again until the first of the year when Fauci and Bill Gates will presumably deliver unto us a miracle cure, you might want to think again.

The American Taliban is now putting out meeting minders. – A group of Antifa/BLM agitators gave  the U.S. Park Police and other federal law enforcement agencies a head’s up yesterday, literally announcing to the world that they plan to topple the Emancipation Monument in Washington D.C.’s Lincoln Park at 7:00 on Thursday. That’s Eastern Time, for all you folks at the FBI.

Criticism has constantly surrounded the memorial, pictured above, because of the way in which it depicts Lincoln towering over a freed person kneeling on the ground with him looking up. Below the work 'emancipation's is written

From a report in the Daily Mail:

President Trump called on Congress to act Tuesday night after protesters in Washington D.C. were seen burning an American flag.

The president branded the demonstrators ‘lowlifes’, adding that it ‘should be stopped’.

His criticism came after protesters pledged to tear down Lincoln’s Emancipation Memorial in the Capitol, vowing to return to Lincoln Park Thursday night to topple the controversial statue.

Organizers of the protest said they would not be working with the police and would achieve change ‘by any means necessary’ as they crowded near the 150-year-old statue paid for by former enslaved people.

Although paid for by former slaves, the Emancipation Memorial is criticized as it was designed by white people and depicts a former slave in a subservient position to Lincoln.

[End]

Given that we can be certain that DC Mayor Muriel Bowser will not lift a finger to preserve this memorial paid for by freed slaves, the ball here is entirely in the court of President Donald Trump and the federal Park Police. At least they know when to show up.

 

Hey, those mail-in ballots are fine – no potential for fraud here at all. You can trust those Democrats to keep everything on the up and up. Nothing to see here, er, um, well…

Body camera footage? What body camera footage? – Speaking of trusting Democrats to keep things on the up and up…

John Solomon at JustTheNews.com has an interesting piece this morning. – Yeah, Solomon has been one of Sean Hannity’s Tick-Tock crew for the past three years, but he also does tremendous investigative reporting and is often very perceptive in his analysis.

This piece is titled “Seven big hints Barr has dropped about Durham’s investigation of the Russia investigators,” which is self-explanatory. Most of it is stuff I’ve already covered here, but #4 on Solomon’s list is worth noting again:

4. Barr views the FBI’s continuation of the Russia probe after the Steele dossier “collapsed” as an illegitimate effort to remove the president.

Barr has repeatedly cited the fact that the FBI continued to rely on the Steele dossier after the former MI6 agent’s primary sub-source contradicted information in the dossier in January 2017 and March 2017 — and failed to tell the FISA court about the problems with the repudiated evidence.

“The dossier pretty much collapsed at that point — and yet they continued to use it as a basis for pursuing this counterintelligence investigation,” Barr noted this past weekend.

The attorney general suggested such behavior supports arguments that what was really going on was an attempted coup to remove Trump from office. “It is the closest we have come to an organized effort to push a president out of office,” he said.

[End]

It was a coup d’etat on American soil, organized initially by one sitting President to take out his successor. That’s what it was, and the Attorney General of the United States understands that fact.

As I keep saying, these Antifa/BLM agitators are a tiny minority of our country and do not have the power to tear it apart. However, a failure by Barr and Durham to bring any of the coup plotters to justice actually could cause that to happen. Because once we lose all faith in the American system of justice – and we are right on the verge of that taking place thanks to Obama’s utter corruption of our institutions – then the country will have lost its very foundation.

Time is getting very short before the November election, Mr. Barr. If you have crimes to prosecute, best get started now. Because if Joe Biden wins the election, all of Durham’s work will be torn into a million pieces and scattered to the winds.

That is all.

America Needs New “Experts” in Every Field

This week we witnessed the spectacle of so-called “expert” economists – men and women supposedly revered in their field – being humiliated by the Labor Department’s jobs report for May. These “experts” weren’t just wrong, they were more wrong than any group of experts in their field have ever been.

The consensus of those “experts” going into Friday was that the U.S. economy had shed more than 8 million jobs during the month of May and that the new rate of unemployment would approach 20%. They based that expectation on careful study and analysis, along with their collected wisdom gathered over years of experience in the field of economics.

Yet, when the numbers came in, it turned out that the phenomenal Trump economy had actually added jobs during May. And not just a few jobs, mind you, nor even a few thousand jobs. The economy added 2.51 million jobs in May, more than the U.S. economy had ever added in any month since records began to be kept. Rather than  rising up to 20%, the rate of unemployment in fact dropped dramatically to 13.3%.

Why did this happen? Part of it has to do with the fact that, over the past few months, the U.S. has been sailing in uncharted economic waters as it has dealt with it’s first-ever voluntarily self-imposed recession.The simple fact of the matter is that no one really knew going in how our or any other nation’s economy would react to the insane manner in which we have responded to this viral gift from China.

But the other part of it in the economic field is political bias among the economist community, at least those who are surveyed by the corrupt national news media, almost all of whom are leftist Democrats. Their bias is to assume that the Trump economic program will be disastrous, which is why these “experts” have been surprised by almost every monthly jobs report for the last 3-1/2 years. Their consensus projections have consistently underestimated the monthly jobs reports, just as they consistently overestimated pretty much every one during the 8 disastrous years of Barack Hussein Obama.

Obviously, our corrupt media establishment should be surveying a more diverse set of economists to make these “consensus” projections.

Equally obvious is our country’s need for a more expert group of medical “experts,” particularly when it comes to the field of control of communicable diseases. Literally every prediction made by the two “experts” upon whom President Trump relied during this response to the Wuhan Virus – Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx – has turned out to be just as spectacularly wrong as this week’s projection by our economic “experts.” These two doctors, along with the equally inept meatheads at the Centers for Disease Control, are mainly responsible for having put more than 30 million Americans out of work and for our nation’s school children’s likely loss of a full year of learning.

Just as the media needs to rely on a more diverse set of economic “experts,” our government needs to gather together a much more diverse set of medical “experts” the next time China sends a viral plague to our shores.

No group of “experts” has been more consistently surprise than those in the oil and gas field over the past few months. Just a month ago, there is not one single “expert” in that field who believed the price for a barrel of West Texas Intermediate would be anywhere above $20. Yet, there it sits today, right on the cusp of $40 months before any “expert” thought that might be possible.

Similarly, the “experts” in the field of “climate change” have been completely and consistently wrong about literally everything since that field of quasi-science was invented out of whole cloth in the 1980s. It was the biggest scam in world history until the whole “Russia Collusion” scam was devised by the Clinton campaign and the FBI in 2016.

The field of education literally cries out for new experts in every discipline and at every level. America’s public schools are just mills of mediocrity and its universities little more than operations of Marxist indoctrination, and have been for decades now.

America needs new experts, hopefully some real ones. The “experts” we rely on today are killing us.

That is all.

Saturday News Roundup: MSNBC Hires Coup Plotter, Whitmer Poured out in Court, and More

Oh, sure. Why not? – Just when you thought MSNBC was incapable of sinking any lower, they fooled you again. Late Friday the fake news cable channel introduced its new “legal analyst”: Former FBI lawyer Lisa Page.

Conservative Twitter is outraged by this hiring, but why? Shouldn’t we all have expected it? After all, MSNBC already employs John Brennan and other Obamagate coup cabal honchos. I’m just amazed they haven’t hired Peter Strzok yet. I mean, if your “news” operation is nothing more than a propaganda outlet for the Deep State, why not go all in?

My only question is whether the homely Ms. Page’s ghoulish face will actually be shown on TV, or will she send her “analyses” in via text, with a CC: to lover boy Strzok?

Are you listening, Al Sharpton? – These are the truest words ever spoken:

Phil Murphy doubles down on destroying New Jersey. – In the midst of the spectacles of mass demonstrations in which no one is staying at home or washing their hands or doing any social distancing, Democrat governors are continuing to extend their politically-motivated lockdowns.

Phil Murphy in New Jersey announced on Friday that he is going to keep the Garden State locked down through July 5 for no valid reason whatsoever.

Meanwhile, not even Dr. Fauci is keeping up this pretense anymore. – In a CNN interview yesterday, the little economy destroyer said schools should reopen in the Fall, although still with mitigations:

“In some situations there will be no problem for children to go back to school,” Fauci said during the interview. “In others, you may need to do some modifications. You know, modifications could be breaking up the class so you don’t have a crowded classroom, maybe half in the morning, half in the afternoon, having children doing alternate schedules.”

Are you listening, Gov. Murphy? Probably not.

But there is massive WINNING in Michigan. – 77 year-old barber Karl Manke won a big victory before the Michigan state Supreme Court. In a 7-0 decision, the Court poured out Michigan’s abusive Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the activist appeals court judges who have abused Manke for the past few weeks, allowing Manke to retain his barber’s license and keep his shop open while the case against him is fully considered by the Court of Appeals. A 3-judge panel of the Appeals court had ordered Manke to close while the case was being heard.

Manke’s attorney, David Kallman, called it the “biggest, most lopsided victory of his career.” Life as an aspiring banana republic dictator is getting harder and harder for Frau Gretchen.

“De-fund the police! De-fund the police! De-f…wait, what? A new poll? Just 16% support? Are you sure? Ok, ummmmm…Never-mind! Never-mind! Just kiddin’! Just kiddin’!” – In Friday’s Evening Wrap, we told you about the sudden backing down within the Minneapolis City Council from its Thursday calls to “dismantle” and “de-fund” the city’s police department in the wake of the murder of George Floyd.

After a new poll found that that concept is supported by just 16% of those surveyed, the Council decided on Friday to pass a very limited new measure that eliminates the police use of choke holds and requires by-standing officers to intervene when they see a fellow officer using excessive force, as happened to Floyd. These are simply commonsense measures that most Americans already support.

You have to look way down to about the 20th paragraph to find it, but a New York Times report this morning quotes Minneapolis’s worthless, spineless Mayor Jacob Frey as also pulling back any support for de-funding his police department:

Mayor Jacob Frey has said he does not support calls to dismantle the department. On Friday, City Council members voted to accept a civil rights investigation by the Minnesota Department of Human Rights and to adopt updates to the Police Department’s use of force policy that include a ban on chokeholds. The topic of eliminating some of the department’s functions was not discussed.

[End]

Talk about burying the lede. But hey, it’s the New York Times – what did you expect?

Despite this latest show of poll-based cowardice by one city’s radical Democrat city council, however, no one should think that the Democrat Party as a whole is abandoning the idea of abolishing traditional police departments nationwide. That remains the obvious end-game.

They and their corrupt media toadies will now simply double-down on their efforts to brainwash the public to accept this society-destroying notion until the polling numbers become more politically viable. We have an election in 6 months, and any politician actively running on a suicidal notion that only has 16% public support will get killed at the polls. They’ll have to get that support number up into the 40% range before their politicians will risk actual votes on it.

“Uh, Mr. Mayor? We’re gonna need a new emergency response team.” – All 57 members of the City of Buffalo, New York’s emergency response team resigned en masse after two of their members were placed on suspension after an altercation with a fairly old radical leftist protester.

The radical jackass was pushed to the ground by the two officers when he accosted them as they were attempting to break up an ongoing riot on Thursday.

From a report at The Hill:

John Evans, president of the Buffalo Police Benevolent Association, announced the 57-member team’s resignation at a press conference Friday.

“Fifty-seven resigned in disgust because of the treatment of two of their members, who were simply executing orders,” Evans told a local NBC affiliate.

[End]

Here’s a video of the incident. You can judge for yourselves:

So, the question here becomes whether the officers used “excessive force” on the old jackass. They certainly did shove him to get him out of the way as they attempted to do their jobs. Are the Buffalo mayor and city council now going to tell their police officers that they must now do nothing as they are harassed and prevented from doing their jobs by radical clowns like this?

If so, they’re going to lose many more officers in the future. As far as I can tell, this guy got exactly what he deserved.

That is all.

America in the 21st Century: 20 Long Years of Constant Brainwashing

Today’s Campaign Update (Because the Campaign Never Ends)

Hey, what happened to all those pervasive, ubiquitous messages from March, April and May, telling us ten thousand times every day to wash our hands and stay at home? It was a hell of a brainwashing campaign carried out by our national news media and governments at all levels, and now it has basically vanished.

Dr. Anthony Fauci has gone from being the national grandfather figure who hands out constantly-shifting and always-wrong advice on your TV screen every day to some old guy cooped up on his basement who gets an interview with some daytime hack on MSNBC or CNN once or twice a week. He told us yesterday he was very concerned about a coming new outbreak of COVID-19 due to the lack of social distancing being practiced by the looters and burners and rioters in the nation’s big, Democrat-run cities, but no one was listening, which frankly is not a bad thing.

Mind you, he told us that while the very same statistical modeling idiots who projected 2 million Americans would die of this virus were now saying that, hey, all the staying at home and social distancing and washing our hands had no effect on the spread of the virus whatsoever. But you weren’t supposed to hear that.

Deborah Birx, the owner of every scarf in North America, seems to have completely disappeared. It’s like she never existed. Fame is a fickle thing – it comes and goes at the whim of the latest Democrat/corrupt news media narrative. She’s yesterday’s narrative, just like the Creepy Porn Lawyer.

The campaign to brainwash America about the Wuhan Virus has basically run its course along with the virus itself, and has now been replaced by a brainwashing campaign to convince us that we should all run out to the nearest riot and take a knee, just like Joe Biden did in that black church on Sunday. You remember Joe Biden, don’t you? Yeah, he’s that guy who told a clearly-black radio talk show host that “you ain’t black!”

That was barely a week ago and we’ve already forgotten. The brainwashing campaign demands it. Today, the narrative is that Joe Biden, the guy who’s already had 16,089 days in public office to address “institutional racism” in America and done nothing about it, is suddenly going to solve the whole problem in his first 100 days in office if you’ll just elect this shuffling, elderly man who doesn’t know where he is most of the time to hold the highest office in the land.

Yeah, that’ll work out fine.

In Los Angeles yesterday, the National Guard there took a knee before the rioters, which means the rioters are now in charge of Los Angeles, which is presumably how Mayor Eric Garcetti wanted it anyway.

Racial Tensions: Police across US taking a knee to support ...

On Twitter last night, every reporter for the New York Times threw a fit because the Times’ own op/ed page ran a piece written by a Republican U.S. Senator, Tom Cotton of Arkansas, who advocates that the President should call in the military to help restore order in the cities run by Democrat mayors who refuse to let the police do their jobs. This is the same New York Times, mind you, that ran an op/ed piece by Adolph Hitler in June, 1941, even as Hitler was loading millions of Jews onto cattle cars and send them off to their deaths. None of the paper’s reporters, then or now, were horrified by that.

The title of Hitler’s op/ed – The Art of Propaganda – was obviously taken to heart by the New York Times editors and apparently remains the subject of Chapter 1 in the Times’ editorial handbook.

In February of this year, the Times ran an op/ed by the leader of the Taliban, a Muslim sect in Afghanistan that kills homosexuals and treats women like we treat rats. In 2013, it ran an op/ed by Vladimir Putin, who is supposed to be the devil incarnate today, according to the current dogma.

But it was the op/ed by a Republican Senator that set the Times staff off into a spasmodic group case of the vapors.

These media/government brainwashing campaigns are nothing new, of course. Hell, they’ve been carrying out a similar campaign related to “climate change” for the last 20 years, creating a global leftist religious cult in the process. They ran a massive campaign in 2008 designed to convince America that it was in fact obligated to elect Barack Obama because he was black. It worked, helped along by a traitorous Republican who intentionally tanked his own campaign. It worked again in 2012 thanks largely to the same dynamic.

For four long years, corrupt media outlets like the New York Times coordinated with the Democrats and many swampy Republicans like Paul Ryan and John McCain on a campaign to convince you that the “Russia Collusion” fantasy was in fact a real thing. It wasn’t, as Rod Rosenstein formally admitted multiple times under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday; but hey, they’re still at it anyway.

For six months last fall and winter, the entirety of our news media actively conspired with Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Gerrold Nadler and the entire DC Swamp to brainwash you into believing that you should support the impeachment of President Trump over a phone call in which nothing improper was discussed. They knew if they could cause a massive shift in public opinion they might be able to convince enough GOP senators to give up the ghost and get it done.

That one failed, other than to get half a vote from the same traitor who threw the 2012 election.

Then came the Wuhan Virus campaign to stay at home and wash your hands and wear your masks and never get within 6 feet of anybody, and now that’s all gone away because you’re supposed to love and respect a bunch of domestic terrorist rioters who aren’t practicing any of that.

Oh, and at the same time, you still can’t legally get a haircut in Michigan or hold a funeral or wedding with more than 10 attendees in California, Oregon, New York and Illinois. And if you do those things, Mayors like Lori Lightfoot, who refuse to allow their police to try to control the riots, will send in the cops to shut your funeral home or church or barber shop down.

Welcome to America in the 21st century, where journalism is dead, the fascists call themselves “Democrats,” and the brainwashing never ends.

That is all.

The Democrat/Media-Induced CoronaPanic has Killed Thousands

The Mid-Day Campaign Update

While browing the Internet today, I came across a very telling chart. It is based on official government data, and was complied by USAFacts.org. Take a look:

Here’s what you need to know about it:

  • The white areas have seen zero cases of the Wuhan Virus;
  • The red areas – major cities in the northeast and midwest – have seen as many cases as the yellow areas, which are basically the metro areas surrounding those big cities;
  • The green and white areas – about 98% of the U.S. landmass – have seen roughly the same number of Wuhan Virus cases as the yellow areas and the red areas.

Now, also realize that, as we reported early this week, fully 52% of all deaths from the virus have occurred among nursing home and long-term care facility patients. Taken together with the reality painted by the map above, this means that, based on catastrophically-wrong statistical models and faulty guidance from Anthony Fauci, Deborah Birx and the pinheads at the CDC, we shut down the U.S. economy and threw 40 million people out of work over what was in fact a nursing home problem concentrated in just 2% of the U.S. land mass. And taking this wrong-headed, shut-everything-down approach instead of focusing on the long-term care facilities in which the problem was actually concentrated resulted in tens of thousands of needless deaths to our elderly community.

The truth of this is simply inescapable.

Never in American history have we taken similar action in response to any disease. Didn’t do it for the Spanish Flu, didn’t do it for SARS, didn’t do it for H1N1, or for polio or smallpox or tuberculosis or any other communicable disease that has come to our shores.

In its Sunday edition today, the ghouls who run the New York Times dedicated their section A to listing the names of the almost 100,000 Americans whose deaths have been attributed to the Wuhan Virus under the CDC’s wildly exaggerated counting guidelines. Oddly, though, the New York Times did not give the same memorial treatment to the roughly 100,000 Americans who the CDC says had died from pneumonia and the seasonal flu from last October through the end of April.

Think about why that is the case – the answer is obvious. There is no political leverage targeting President Donald Trump to be gained from focusing on pneumonia and common flu deaths. Only COVID-19 gets that treatment.

One favorite liberal talking point throughout this crisis has been to say “boy, things sure would have been different if Obama was president,” and that is certainly true. Because if Obama were president, the Democrats/media axis of propaganda would not have engaged in the frenzied effort during February and early March to create a national panic about this viral gift from China as a tactic to damage him.

No question about that, and without that national panic, Dr. Fauci would have likely never gotten his national platform from which to create so much confusion and additional panic, which led directly to the whole “flatten the curve” strategy involving what became almost a national lockdown. Without that national panic created by the Democrats and media, we might have saved tens of thousands of elderly lives that have instead been lost.

Never forget what these people did to our country in the crass pursuit of partisan political power.

That is all.
