Iran bombs Saudi oil refinery, aided by Barack Obama

Obama and Valerie Jarrett gave the Drone Technology to the Iranians. Now they have a "Clone Drone"

Jewish Press; Iran’s Stealth Drone that Penetrated Israel’s Border a Gift from the Obama Administration  . . . "President Obama acknowledged that the downed drone was his, and requested that Iran return it. We’re not kidding."

Obama asked Iran to return the drone. Iran is said to have produced drones based on the captured RQ-170. Got cleverly taunted by the Iranians
. . . "And the ministry spokesman, Mehmanparast, stated that "it seems he [Obama] has forgotten that Iran’s airspace was violated, spying operations were undertaken, international laws were violated and that Iran’s internal affairs were interfered with... . Instead of an official apology and admitting to this violation, they are making this request." 

"Former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney criticized Obama's decisions on the drone, saying that, after the aircraft went down, the president should have ordered an air strike within Iran: "The right response to that would have been to go in immediately after it had gone down and destroy it. You can do that from the air ... and, in effect, make it impossible for them to benefit from having captured that drone." Instead, "he asked nicely for them to return it, and they aren't going to".^[30]

"On 17 January 2012, an Iranian company said it would send miniature, pink, toy versions of the captured drone to President Obama as a response to the request for sending the drone back." . . .

Yes, Justice Kavanaugh should sue! UPDATED

Silvio Canto, Jr.

  "The left can't let go of Justice Brett Kavanaugh.  I guess that's what Roe v Wade has done to them.   

"The latest attack is familiar and it involves the New York Times:   

Times reporters Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly stated in a piece published Saturday that well before Kavanaugh became a federal judge "at least seven people" had heard about how Kavanaugh allegedly exposed himself to Deborah Ramirez at a party. 

The report also included a new allegation that Kavanaugh similarly thrust his penis at an unwilling woman at an alcohol-fueled college party. 

The president defended Kavanaugh, whom he nominated to the court in 2018.

"At some point, this malicious reporting has to stop.

"First, this "new" story is simply a replay of one retailed last year in which Deborah Ramirez claimed to be the victim. It was thoroughly debunked at the time and the Times story adds no new evidence. 

"Second, the alleged attack occurred in the 1980s at a college party.  Did anyone actually see it?  The Times reportage doesn't mention anyone.

"Third, I think that there should be limits on attacking public people, especially allegations like this that go back 35-plus years.

"President Trump is right.  Justice Kavanaugh should sue and force his critics to take the stand in a trial.  Maybe it will never happen, but enough with these attacks on Justice Kavanaugh, and, more specifically, judges who think that voters rather than courts should decide the matter of abortion."   Hat tip to Cathie Post

UPDATE: Christine Blasey Ford’s Friend Doesn’t Believe Her On Kavanaugh Accusation, Says New Book  . . . "The whole tale falls apart at the end of the book, Mollie Hemingway writes. There, the authors say: "We spoke multiple times to Keyser, who also said that she didn't recall that get-together or any others like it. In fact, she challenged Ford's accuracy. 'I don't have any confidence in the story.'"

"In her own book, "Justice on Trial: The Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court," Hemingway details the pressure applied on Keyser to get her to back up Ford's tale. The new book does so, too, saying Ford's friends "had grown frustrated with Keyser. Her comments about the alleged Kavanaugh incident had been too limited, some of them felt, and did not help their friend's case. Surely, given what a close friend Keyser had been, she could say more to substantiate Ford’s testimony and general veracity, even if she could not corroborate Ford's more specific memories." . . .

National Review: No, Brett Kavanaugh Has Not Been ‘Credibly Accused’ . . . "Imagine for a moment that you’re a lawyer investigating whether to take a case. Christine Blasey Ford has been in your office and told you a heart-rending tale of a high-school attack, but you do due diligence before taking a case, so you ask an associate to investigate. And when he does, what he finds does not support any single element of her story.

" 'Not one of the witnesses she puts forward back her account. Her own friend says she doesn’t have “any confidence” in Ford’s story. Ford herself has offered differing accounts of her age at the time of the attack, and her therapist’s notes contain a substantially different version of the story. She won’t release the complete set of therapist’s notes, and she won’t release the complete results of a polygraph she took. She’s scrubbed her social-media past, but she’s apparently extremely partisan and seems to have an ideological motivation for coming forward — to help preserve Roe v. Wade.

In 2020 Trump Will Reduce the Blue Wall to Rubble  . . . "The Democrats have attempted to repair the damaged wall, but it has only weakened further as the unemployed voters who took a chance on Trump have found jobs. They won’t desert him next year, which means the crumbling blue ramparts will completely collapse in 2020.

"These voters, many of whom found themselves out of work for the first time in their lives during the Obama years, see the resurgence of the job market since the last election as a promise kept by the president. In states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin, unemployment has plummeted. In Pennsylvania, for example, Obama and his Democratic accomplices declared war on coal and drove unemployment to a peak of 8.8 percent. It was still 5.2 percent when President Trump took office. Unemployment is now 3.9 percent. In 2016, the President won Pennsylvania by 44,292 votes, less than 1 percent. He will win by a far larger margin next year.  "The story is much the same in Michigan. " . . .

Donald John Trump is still your president.  . . . " 'Yemen’s Iranian-aligned Houthi rebels claimed credit for the attack, saying they sent 10 drones to strike at important facilities in Saudi Arabia’s oil-rich Eastern Province. The production shutdown amounts to a loss of about five million barrels a day, the people said, roughly 5% of the world’s daily production of crude oil."
"Glenn Reynolds wrote, "Good thing we have frackers."
"This is why Democrats want to end fracking." . . .
. . . "Speaking of Coons, the Washington Examiner reported, "Chris Coons to Beto O'Rourke: You are so not helping.' " . . .

. . .  "Zero Hedge reported, "More than 1.2 million American households moved to above $50,000 in annual income between 2016 and 2018, according to Census Bureau data released on Sept. 10, a sign of a growing middle class."
"Mitt Romney must hate this." . . .

If You Believe the Accusations About Brett Kavanaugh and Cheer Attacks On Him, You’re Not the Good Guy

Democrats enjoying the destruction of a good man.

If You Believe the Accusations About Brett Kavanaugh and Cheer Attacks On Him, You’re Not the Good Guy  . . . "Even the most popular accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, was found to be pretty fraudulent after her own lawyer admitted that her quest to have Kavanaugh denied his seat on the Supreme Court was about fighting for abortion. Ford’s own father seems to disbelieve his daughter as he was seen telling Kavanaugh’s father that he’s glad his son got to the Supreme Court." . . .

. . . "Furthermore, all the accusations against Kavanaugh have all the substance and weight of shadows. Every accusation has come up empty in terms of evidence and witnesses. In fact, every witness who knew Kavanaugh completely demolished these claims, and even witnesses called on by accusers seem to lend to Kavanaugh’s goodness.

"The man is innocent.

. . . "I pray that you or your loved ones never wind up in a situation where a false accusation causes so much upheaval in your lives that you never come back from it. However, if you support the figurative crucifixion of an innocent man because his politics differ from yours then you’re making that scenario all the more likely.

"No matter what you say or do, you won’t be able to stop it. No matter what evidence you put forth, it won’t mean a thing. You’ve been deemed guilty and so you are.

"And should that day come, you can reflect back to when you yourself cheering on as it happened to someone else."

‘They are CORRUPT’: Brit Hume rakes NYT over the coals for attempting to revive their smear campaign against Kavanaugh :
This smear was disgusting the first time around. This attempt to revive it is beyond disgusting and speaks to the dishonesty of leading organs of the mainstream media. They are corrupt.  https://spectator.us/brett-kavanaugh-debbie-ramirez-character/ …

Here’s Just How Much of a Dumpster Fire That New Kavanaugh Hit Piece Is "As you’ve probably heard over the weekend, The New York Times covered itself in glory and released excerpts from a supposed well-researched book focused on destroying Brett Kavanaugh. The “revelations” have led to major Democrats rushing to social media to proclaim the current Supreme Court Justice should be impeached. On what grounds? There are none, but they just know it should be done.

The main “witness” of this new allegation is a man named Max Stier. The hit piece itself offers no background about who Stier is, and once you find out, it’s obvious why.

. . . "So who is Stier? He just happens to be Bill Clinton’s former lawyer, who defended him from accusations of sexual misconduct in the Paula Jones case."
(Emphasis mine, TD)
. . . 

"As for the victim? They say she “has refused to discuss the incident, though several of her friends said she does not recall it.”

To repeat: Several of her friends said she does not recall it.

"So to summarize, the only new claim in the new book is that a Democratic attorney told two senators that he saw an incident where a third party allegedly did something to Kavanaugh and the young woman. In their book, the authors are upset that this claim didn’t lead to a massive FBI investigation, although they don’t explain why they think it should have.

"Pogebrin and Kelly left the victim’s denial out of their New York Times story. It is unclear why the reporters and editors allowed the story to be published without this salient fact that they conceded, albeit briefly, in their own book." . . .

Latest Kavanaugh Accuser Was Hillary's Lawyer in Clinton Impeachment . . . "Interestingly, the alleged victim is not quoted in the article, and neither are any corroborating witnesses. In fact, The Federalist's Mollie Hemingway reported that "the book notes, quietly, that the woman Max Stier named as having been supposedly victimized by Kavanaugh and friends denies any memory of the alleged event."
"As for Max Stier, he has a long history with sexual assault claims, but from the other side. Stier, a Democrat, represented President Bill Clinton after Paula Jones accused him of exposing himself to her in a hotel room. Clinton settled with Jones for $850,000 and lost his law license for five years." . . .

The Two Latest Sexual Assault Claims Against Brett Kavanaugh Disprove Themselves

First Democrats must kill each other off; then they will come for us

Mike Harris

Is Dianne Feinstein out to kill off Kamala Harris's presidential bid?  . . . "So just the fundraiser in Harris's home state of California was a shiv in the side to Kamala.

Why is that? 

"Well, for one thing, the Democratic political set widely believes that to win the presidency, one must win California. Harris is from California, so that stacks things in her favor. 

"Now Feinstein is marshalling money from California Biden's way? So that they give their money to him and feel 'donor fatigue' when Kamala comes calling?

"The matter is compounded by the fact that the California Democratic campaign fatcats weren't impressed with Harris's performance in the third debate, as this CNBC report here indicates. Feinstein knows those people and may very well be egging them toward Biden, or at least piling on.

"Here's another thing: Money from fatcats over little-people donations is Kamala's vulnerable spot. The queen of fake Twitter followers is also highly reliant on big dollar donors over the little guys, even as the New York Times tries to claim she's changing that. Well, maybe she is, but if she is, it would be in the infant stage and in any case, they're taking her word for it. More likely, she still relies on the big boys, because that's what she knows." . . .

Always The Bridesmaid, Never The Bride . . . "Even Hillary Clinton was able to win the nomination once. Sanders can’t.

The White Supremacy Hoax

Center for American Greatness   

"The specter of white supremacy haunts America. Let us empower the government to crush it.

"Just yesterday, “the deplorables” were to be deplored because they were “racist, sexist, homophobic,” clingers to “God and guns,” and Russian dupes to boot. Today, the agility and unanimity with which our politicians and media—heck, the ruling class—have shifted to indicting roughly 72 percent of the population as white supremacists, likely violent, would fill with envy their homologues in China, Cuba, North Korea, and other tyrannical places. By comparison, Joseph Goebbels had sloppy message discipline. Not even the Soviets in their salad days were so “on message!”

"One may suppose that our ruling class merely intends to energize its constituencies and cower the opposition in the 2020 elections. But this is no game. Their proposals would impose pre-punishment for pre-crimes on persons accused or “suspected” of being a “white supremacist.” By whom? On the basis of what?

"In practice, a “white supremacist” is anyone whom anyone in power dislikes enough to so label him. Who would accept being outlawed at will? Our ruling class plays with matches in a house drenched in gasoline.

"Here is the latest. The Wall Street Journal on Saturday featured an essay by one Clint Watts, formerly of the FBI and West Point’s Counter-Terrorism Center. Watts makes those proposals using the word “white” 16 times in 18 paragraphs. The sociopolitical ideas rife among white people are the main matrix of terrorism in America, Watts contends. Racial profiling, anyone?

"Bemoaning the fact that U.S. law now restricts surveillance of, never mind restrictions on, U.S. persons to those who have committed or may be about to commit crimes, Watts proposes legislation that would permit designating persons associated with what the government may identify as “white supremacist ideology” as subject to surveillance to “preemptively assess whether these white supremacists are taking a radical turn toward violence.”

"Watts also proposes “red flag” laws, that would allow the government to take away weapons from someone so designated. Loss of weapons would be the least of burdens imposed on anyone so “red-flagged.” Career, reputation, possibly family, would be gone because someone in the notoriously impartial FBI so decided, perhaps with the agreement of the highly scrupulous FISA court, subsequent to ex parte, secret proceedings.

"This has become ruling-class conventional wisdom. Desire to wage war on ordinary Americans—to disadvantage them and even to kill them—had long been bubbling in the ruling class’s basements. The countless, nearly identical pronouncements from on high in recent days can be taken as an announcement that the ruling class has raised them into its forceful mainstream." . . .
