Remember Adam Kinzinger? He's back!

 Disgraced Adam Kinzinger Comes to the Defense of Abdul El-Sayed's Muslim Brotherhood Ties  

"But this is the end result of Trump Derangement Syndrome: you will support anything, no matter how vile, in an effort to stick it to the President, including embracing the Muslim Brotherhood, a designated terror organization."

"'Disgraced Republican Adam Kinzinger is the latest to come to the defense of Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed, calling questions about El-Sayed's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and other terrorist organizations "a smear campaign" tied to El-Sayed's Muslim faith.

"'Attacks on someone's religion have no place in this country," wrote Kinzinger on X, as he protected a guy who has made attacking Jews part of his campaign platform.

"For weeks, Trump and the GOP have accused Abdul El-Sayed of ties to the Muslim Brotherhood," Kinzinger said. "The whole thing is built on a tweet from his half-sister about their mother's activism in the early 1970s, more than a decade before El-Sayed was even born. There's no evidence that he has any ties to the Brotherhood. It's a smear that's meant to scare off voters because of his name and his religion."

"That's just not true.

"First, there isn't a person alive who doesn't believe that if Donald Trump's sister said his family had ties to the Nazis that Adam Kinzinger wouldn't take that as proof that President Trump is a Nazi. Every time the media cites an "anonymous source," guys like Kinzinger take it as Gospel, even when it's later debunked.

WNBA’s Caitlin Clark Problem Is Really America’s Black Woman Problem - LA Progressive

"The media’s fixation on Caitlin Clark reveals a deeper racial double standard—one that sidelines Black women whose talent, labor, and star power built the WNBA."

Now this writer sees Caitlin Clark as the "erasure of black women". So, this form of Jim Crow is permissible? Daily I am in a black women's world at hospitals, our church, in eating locations, in the presence of gracious, friendly ladies without exception as far as I can tell. But why when I turn on my TV am I deluged with the likes of Maxine Waters, Al Green, Joy Reid, The View, The Squad, Congressional scolds with their practiced scowls and matching outfits. Why must we look for reasoned, dignified individuals such as Dr. Ben Carson, Condoleezza Rice, Harris Faulkner, Harold Ford, Jr., Tim Scott, Larry Elder, and more.

This success would grow even more if the WNBA stopped embracing leftwing politics and showed more support for the United States of America, the country where basketball was invented.

She posted on social media, “No WNBA players would have been free 250 years ago. The majority wouldn’t even have their freedom 100 years ago.

"This is not the first time this season the Dream have walked off the court for the anthem. The team has not explicitly explained their reason for doing so previously this season.

"The Dream do have a history with staying off the court for the anthem dating back to previous seasons as well. In 2020, the team protested the anthem at the height of the George Floyd protests and included messaging from the WNBPA in their game notes to explain their reasons.

Michigan Dem Senator Slotkin: Abandon JFK Idealism, Prosecute Trump Staffers |

The American Spectator | USA News and Politics 

. . . "Suffice to say, sadly, Americans are beginning to realize just how far today’s Democrats have strayed from these ideals of service advocated by JFK." . . .

WASHINGTON — Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin publicly called on Democrats to intimidate young conservatives who want to work for the Trump administration by prosecuting the president’s staffers.

“I want them to be like, ‘Lord, that might be buying myself a ton of problems I don’t want, and so let me avoid participating in that,’” the senator went on. “I want that deterrence message sent.” 

"Which is to say, Slotkin and who knows how many other Democrats are hell and long gone from JFK’s idealistic call for young Americans of the day to “Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.”  

"Instead, as made clear by this Democrat United States Senator, the objective of modern-day Democrats should be to intimidate young Americans into refusing public service. It is no longer acceptable to follow JFK’s inspiring call to serve their country, idealistically thinking of a career in public service.

 All of which can have the unintended effect of backfiring, serving as a call to young conservatives to get involved in politics — politics whether at the local, state, or national level. Or to get involved in the media, signing on to one of the seemingly limitless conservative websites that are spread throughout the Internet. Not to mention participating in the world of television or radio. 

However, whatever today’s young Americans choose to do in the world of public service, they should make sure they choose to listen to the inspiring words of JFK — not the serious negativity and prosecution threats of Senator Slotkin." . . .

Slotkin Slapped With Ethics Complaint Over Plot to Scare Young Conservatives From Working for Trump

. . . "That's right. The woman who spent months whining about a faux weaponization of government against her for being part of the "seditious six" very blatantly expressed her intent to weaponize the government against her political opponents.

During an October 13 appearance at the University of Chicago, Slotkin said she wanted Democrats to pursue “signature cases” not only against the president but against the people who “enabled” him. 

She then made her intent explicit, stating that she wanted young people coming out of school to look at a job in the Trump administration and conclude that it might mean “buying myself a ton of problems that I don’t want.” . . .

France falling to the new Jacobins?

"So-called “progressives” are the biggest threat to Europe, Australia, Canada… and the U.S. They will not tolerate views that differ from their own, even as they glory in the decline and fall of the countries they infest. And attack."

France falling to the new Jacobins? - Eric Utter

. . . "Those attacking Paris and other major French cities are a mix of leftists/communists, disaffected youth, antifa, and Muslims. Emphasis on leftists/communists and Muslims.

"These attacks are anything but spontaneous. They are fomented, planned, and funded by various subversive groups that are determined to bring about the destruction of the Western democracies. A Fox News investigation found that 54 radical groups were involved, very few of them 'students' as the media has been reporting.

"We shall see how long the Fifth Republic lasts, but, merde, things don’t look good at the moment. Let’s hope a new version of Vichy France doesn’t come into existence, though things couldn’t get much worse for Jews in France as it is.

"There is simply no doubt that Europe and America are under assault, though some of our politicians don’t appear to realize it.

"And others embrace it. Europe is literally being invaded by a tsunami of Muslims, and is in mortal danger of having its culture, history and customs washed away forever. 

"If we wish to save ourselves — and Christendom — we must take action now. It should be obvious what steps need to be taken to save ourselves, but these measures will not be easy or without cost, as the New Jacobins are determined, well-funded, and crazy. That said, we can still save our societies without need of massive bloodshed or truly large-scale suffering. But the same could’ve been said in 1937 or 1938." . . . 

Abdul El-Sayed has his Hillary Clinton 'hot sauce in purse' moment in cringey, pandering interview

 The Western Journal

"It's not easy getting lower than Hillary Clinton, but Abdul El-Sayed just pulled it off.

'A decade after the former first lady, senator, and secretary of state managed to turn "hot sauce" into a national punchline of pandering, El-Sayed used a luncheon interview with a black publisher for even more obvious pandering to black voters.

"What he ordered to eat was embarrassing enough -- but not even close to the most embarrassing part of the interview.

"El-Sayed was meeting with Ashley Allison, publisher of the black-oriented magazine The Root, at a Washington, D.C., restaurant trying to whip up enthusiasm for his campaign among Michigan blacks. (Even CNN admitted he has a problem with one of the Democratic Party's most loyal constituencies.)

"It was an exercise in pandering that would make even a Clinton blush.

"From ordering fried chicken -- El-Sayed's interlocutor went with the blackened salmon -- to belittling those of his own background, the man aiming to become the country's first Muslim senator managed mainly to show just how low he was willing to go to pull the wool over the eyes of Wolverine State voters." . . .   Hillary's hot sauce

Morning Greatness: Obama White Knights for Credibly Accused Scofflaw Rep. Ilhan Omar

 American Greatness   

"There isn’t enough space to list all the ways in which Obama has “selectively target[ed] individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say.” Maybe he can sponsor Ilhan Omar and her family for citizenship."

. . . "Former President Barack Hussein Obama has stepped in on X to defend his comrade Ilhan Omar from unjust attacks by a weaponized Trump Administration. “It is a basic principle of American democracy that the government can’t selectively target individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say.”

"And he continued to explain, “The full weight of the federal government is being brought down on a law-abiding elected official because she has dared to criticize the president.”

""Full weight of the government, eh? The Obama machine and his deep state vultures relentlessly attacked elected official President Donald J. Trump with witch hunts, hearings and investigations. They abused the FISA process, spied on his campaign, and planted lies in the media that were used to “justify” further government overreach. During the four years of the “Biden” administration, the Obama machine sent storm troopers to Trump’s private residence complete with pre-arranged media coverage, staged evidence for photo ops and ransacked his wife and child’s private belongings. His operation worked with disgruntled characters to file civil suits against the president and changed the law to prosecute Trump for manufactured crimes in New York. Obama’s henchmen had a television producer create a prime time broadcast spectacle of a “hearing” for the J6 protest on the taxpayer dime. Don’t get me started on what they did to the J6ers with SWAT raids, debanking, surveillance, financial ruin, lawfare and ritual defamation. Obama’s posse obtained the banking records and personal information from random, blue hair, memaws who bought a Trump hat or donated $10 to the Trump campaign. How could I forget about all the disbarment efforts against every  lawyer who worked with Trump, like the wonderful John Eastman or Jeff Clark who are still fighting that battle today. His friends also spied on senators, congressmen and the media." . . . More.

Indiana Dem Offers Hilarious Explanation for Her Sloppy Debate Performance That Went Viral

 RedState 

"Well, there you have it. Yeah, Jaime West was, as you probably suspected, drunk. And, yeah, she'll still never sit down for a frosty Coors Light with anyone who doesn't adhere to her admittedly sloppy brand of politics." 5:40 in this video

 "Indiana Democrat Jaime West has gotten more earned media over the past week than any super-downballot candidate could reasonably dream of getting – and it's all because of a questionable pre-debate action she took to calm her nerves.

"As RedState's Nick Arama reported last week, West – who is running for Fayette County Council, District 4 in Indiana – went viral after giving a candidate-forum performance that was, shall we say, a tad difficult to forget.

"When asked what decision she might make that might be unpopular with her constituents but would be in the best interests of the country, West responded, “Firing all Republicans!” She went on to say she doesn’t actually talk to Republicans because she doesn’t like them, declared that MAGA voters are “racist” individuals who “aren’t very intelligent at all,” and then topped things off with a final, emphatic message for voters:

“'We have guns too.” . . .

Nation Of France Films Massive Campaign Ad For Republicans

 

Presumptuous Politics

Babylon Bee parody  

"PARIS — The nation of France has thrown its support behind the American conservative movement, graciously spending the past week filming a massive campaign ad for the Republican Party.

With midterms just over two weeks away, the entire nation of France took it upon itself to film a sprawling attack ad, demonstrating with incredible realism the dangers of voting Democrat.

"Wow. Thanks, France," said Republican Senate candidate Jon Husted. "This must have cost billions of dollars to film. We really didn't expect this level of support from the French. Honestly, you didn't have to go so far as burning down actual historic buildings, but we appreciate the commitment to showing the consequences of Democrat policy. It's an incredibly effective ad you guys made."

The French, for their part, stated that they were more than happy to see their country burned down to help the Republicans' chances. "Yes, it has caused untold financial damage, and we have lost several priceless artifacts, but it is the least we can do," said local man Gerard Dubois. "We have captured so much great footage of what America will become under Democratic control. It is our great pleasure to do this for the Republican Party that we love so much. Au revoir!"

At publishing time, the nation of Italy had announced that it would join France in filming ads for Republicans ahead of the coming midterms."

‘Queen of the bad take’: Greta once again chooses the wrong side

10 Times Abdul El-Sayed Was Absolutely Wacked Out; His extremism is off the charts.

The American Spectator | USA News and Politics

"In a podcast episode this spring, El-Sayed decided to personally attack and mock Second Lady Usha Vance, who was eight months pregnant at the time, and obsess over her children’s race."

AfterMath - Home

"On Monday, the Detroit Free Press endorsed Democrat Abdul El-Sayed for Michigan’s open Senate seat with the justification that it is his opponent, Mike Rogers, who is the real extremist.

“Everything you’ve heard about Michigan’s U.S. Senate race is true: An extremist is asking voters to send him to Washington, masking an agenda far out of step with Michigan’s mainstream under the pretense of normalcy. If elected, this man would urge America down a dark path, changing the shape of our nation, perhaps irrevocably,” said the Detroit Free Press. “But that man is not Abdul El-Sayed.”

"Of course, anyone — left or right — who examines El-Sayed’s record cannot help but come to the conclusion that this is a man who is wildly to the left of mainstream American politics. (RELATED: Abdul El-Sayed Rewrites the Meaning of ‘Democrat’ in Michigan )

"As for Mike Rogers, the Free Press’s attack on the former Army officer and FBI agent amounts to going after his pro-life position, which the newspaper characterized as a willingness to “deprive Michiganders of essential rights.”

"El-Sayed is so off-the-charts extreme that it is difficult to grasp the full extent of it. This is the man who is the political protégé of antisemitic extraordinaire Linda Sarsour, formerly of the Women’s March. Sarsour, in a comment characteristic of her usual drivel, once said women couldn’t be true feminists if they supported Israel’s right to exist. According to Just the News, Sarsour had an essential role in raising El-Sayed’s political profile when he ran against Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in 2018. (RELATED: The Electoral Integrity Issue Isn’t Israel — It’s Islam)

"Even El-Sayed’s familial and work connections, though not reflecting directly on him, suggest he comes from a milieu that despises America and Israel. His half-sister, Eman Abdelhadi, has been charged with committing aggravated battery at an anti-ICE protest. Additionally, Mariam Muhammed Odeh, who worked for his Senate campaign, has been charged with conspiring to threaten University of Michigan officials and law enforcement officers as part of her anti-Israel activism. El-Sayed has also chosen time and again to associate himself with (and even campaign with) Hasan Piker, who famously said America deserved 9/11 — a comment which El-Sayed refused to condemn. Earlier this month, Piker also said he believes “America conducts more terrorism in the world than al-Qaeda.” (RELATED: Hasan Piker and the Democrats Who Embrace His Violent Rhetoric)

"The Detroit Free Press, which asserts that calling El-Sayed “dangerous” is “a descriptor laden with racist subtext,” would likely say it is racist to note the milieu to which El-Sayed belongs. It is nevertheless a warning sign that accompanies a long record of extreme, wacked-out comments. I’ll present just 10 of those comments that show the Detroit Free Press’ idiocy in endorsing him." . . .More.

“We Will Use Your Democracy to Destroy Your Democracy”

"How America’s freedoms have been subverted and weaponized against us - where is the line between principles and self-preservation?"

Yuri Bezmenov and Hector Herrera

“A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen: but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property & all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means.” Thomas Jefferson

Years before ISIS existed, the Islamist cleric Omar Bakri Mohammed reportedly told journalist Patrick Goodenough something that seems to be willfully ignored by the vast majority of people in the West:

"“We will use your democracy to destroy your democracy.”

"In one sentence, Bakri identified the vulnerability at the heart of a free society.

"Islamism treats Islam not merely as a religious belief, but as a governing political order. Some Islamist movements have been remarkably candid about their rejection of liberalism and their ambition to replace it.

"Bakri’s remark is interesting precisely because it removes the comforting assumption of reciprocity. A western liberal hears “freedom of speech” and thinks of a principle. Someone like Bakri hears “freedom of speech” and thinks of a vulnerability in the enemy.  The western liberal assumes that we are all playing the same game, disagreeing perhaps viciously over policy, interpretation and the application of the rules, but accepting the basic constitutional framework within which our opponents retain their rights if we win.

"The revolutionary may have no such intention. He can believe in our freedom instrumentally. He can use free speech without believing that free speech should survive his victory. He can use freedom of religion while believing apostasy should eventually be punished. He can use democratic elections while regarding democracy merely as the vehicle by which democracy can be brought to an end.

"This is not a new problem. What may be new is our reluctance—or hubris—to admit that anyone, especially our enemies, thinks this way." . . . More.

The Riots In France Are A Warning For America

"What that will look like in America we have yet to see in full. But if you want to get a rough idea, look at the riots in France. If we don’t put an end to Muslim immigration, that’s what our future holds." . . .

. . . "Among the “protesters,” we don’t see a broad cross-section of French society but overwhelmingly nonwhite males, immigrants and the children of immigrants. The barricades are being raised largely by Muslim youth of North African and Middle Eastern descent. Outside many schools, students weren’t chanting about funding cuts or classroom conditions, they were chanting “we are antifascists” and other such slogans. In Marseille, rioters flew the flag of Algeria and Hamas, not the tricolor. It was the same at a number of high schools that saw rioting." . . .
