Mitt Romney about to become "corpus Delecto"?

Not Keith Olbermann

Mitt Romney Caught with Secret ‘Pierre Delecto’ Twitter Account to Champion Himself  . . . "Everything about this story says so much about Mitt Romney: his pettiness, his insecurity, his lack of character, honesty, and decency, starting with how it all unraveled: Romney doing business with the establishment media — in this case, the far-left Atlantic and activist-reporter, McKay Coppins, who was originally hired at BuzzFeed to destroy Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign.

"Back in 2011, Coppins was the affirmative-action hire of all affirmative-action hires. Determined to win Barack Obama a second term, BuzzFeed knew it needed a left-wing Mormon (or a “media-approved Mormon,” as I dubbed him at the time) on the team, someone who could trash Romney without being called a religious bigot." . . . 

From the UK Daily Mail: Mitt Romney has secret Twitter account with alter-ego name 'Pierre Delecto' where he promoted his 2012 presidential campaign, nagged unflattering reporters and called Donald Trump's Syria pullout 'awful'

. . . "It was revealed Sunday evening by Slate that the 72-year-old Utah senator goes by the name Pierre Delecto, with the handle @qaws9876, on his undercover Twitter account that he admittedly uses to act as a 'lurker' on the social media site.  

"In an interview with The Atlantic published Sunday, Romney gave some clues to his alter ego account, that lead Slate to be able to track down the Pierre Delecto account." . . .

The newly rebellious senator has become an outspoken dissident in Trump’s Republican Party, just in time for the president’s impeachment trial.  “ 'That’s kind of what he does,” Romney said with a shrug, and then got up to retrieve an iPad from his desk. He explained that he uses a secret Twitter account—“What do they call me, a lurker?”—to keep tabs on the political conversation. “I won’t give you the name of it,” he said, but “I’m following 668 people.” Swiping at his tablet, he recited some of the accounts he follows, including journalists, late-night comedians (“What’s his name, the big redhead from Boston?”), and athletes. Trump was not among them. “He tweets so much,” Romney said, comparing the president to one of his nieces who overshares on Instagram. “I love her, but it’s like, Ah, it’s too much.” (After this story was published, Slate identified a Twitter account using the name Pierre Delecto that seemed to match the senator’s description of his lurker account. When I spoke to Romney on the phone Sunday night, his only response was, “C'est moi.”)" . . .

RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel: 'Socialist' Democrats 'Are Addicted to Power' and Will 'Never Let It Go'

RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel: ‘Socialist’ Democrats ‘Are Addicted to Power’ and Will ‘Never Let It Go’  "Ronna Romney McDaniel, Chair of the Republican National Committee, has warned that Democrats have a socialist agenda and are addicted to power. McDaniel spoke to Fox & Friends on Tuesday about the RNC’s new ‘Victims of Socialism’ campaign.’
“Well, when you say socialism a lot of people in this country don’t understand what that means and so when you hear it firsthand from people from Venezuela or Cuba who have dealt with socialism, who’ve been driven from their countries, who have dealt with the poverty and the instability it brings to their government, I think it really resonates,” McDaniel said.
“ 'We’ve launched victimsofsocialism.org so we can hear their stories firsthand. And it is very powerful.”
"Following a clip of a video promoting the ‘Victims of Socialism’ campaign, Fox & Friends host Steve Doocy asked if any Democratic presidential candidates were featured in it.

“ 'We actually have in the video a man named Warner, who’s a former mayor,” McDaniel said." . . .

Biden 'asked President Obama not to endorse' him, but people aren't buying it

. . . "On Thursday, a reporter asked Biden why Obama had yet to endorsed him for president, to which the former VP replied, "I asked President Obama not to endorse, and he doesn’t want to. "Listen, we should — whoever wins this nomination should win it on their own merits." That's when things got awkward.". . . 

Michelle Obama Has Bad News For Biden About Barack’s Endorsement

. . . "The apology could very well backfire on the embattled Biden because as has repeatedly been seen when dealing with the social media outrage mob, giving into them has been the worst option and once they have sensed weakness, like sharks they move in for the kill.

Mrs. Obama’s comments on withholding their endorsement nonetheless have to sting, especially after the human gaffe machine sent Barack a friendship bracelet last month."

Nancy Pelosi speaks nonsense to power

Photosnark by Rich Terrell who, being from California, must have been tormented by having to do this to a fellow Californian.

The mother of all hissy fits  "By now, you've all heard about Speaker Nancy Pelosi walking out on President Trump.  I'm still a bit confused about "he said," but "she said" that he showed no respect.
"My theory is that Speaker Pelosi was trying to pick a fight with President Trump to compensate for the announcement that there'd be no impeachment vote anytime soon.  

"What else do you do when the left wants to hang him from the tree outside of the Capitol Building? 

"No matter what, Speaker Pelosi did not look good for a woman who is third in line to assume the presidency.  

"Furthermore, it did not help the image of women, as Miranda Devine wrote:   

She must imagine it portrays her in a good light. It doesn’t, no matter how many progressive women share it triumphantly on social media as a symbol of female empowerment. 

It’s more a symbol of female entitlement.

It’s an embarrassment to women who want to be judged on their merits, not given special treatment by men through melodrama and flouncing hysterics.

"To be honest, it'd be better if our leaders would be able to talk and not scream at each other.  
"At the same time, this was a premeditated attack intended to show the left that the speaker hates the President as much as they do."

Hillary's Attacks on Tulsi Gabbard Appear to be Backfiring

"Is Hillary really crazy? Or is this some kind of bizarre strategy to get Democrats to begin calling for her to save the party from the loony left? The former is possible. The latter is delusional. So maybe her close loss to Trump has finally taken its toll on her mental state and she's lost touch with reality"  Rick Moran

Townhall

Rick Moran  "Hillary Clinton's bizarre accusation that the Russians are "grooming" Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard for a third party run at the White House appears to be having the exact opposite effect she intended. “She’s the favorite of the Russians. They have a bunch of sites and bots and other ways of supporting her so far,” Clinton said on a recent podcast.
"That comment has led to an outpouring of support for Gabbard and harsh criticism of Clinton. In fact, Gabbard, who is barely registering in polls, is now fundraising off of the comment." . . .

Townhall:

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Friday backed out of  Fortune's Most Powerful Women Summit in Washington, D.C. because Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard and former Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen are also scheduled to speak,  Fox News reported. Her team, however, said it was because of "scheduling conflicts." . . .

Hillary Clinton Asked To Leave Costco After Repeatedly Accusing Sample Lady Of Being A Russian Asset  Via the Babylon Bee

"WASHINGTON, D.C.—According to sources at a DC-area Costco, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was asked to leave Costco again after repeatedly accusing a lady handing out food samples of being a Russian asset.

"It wasn't clear how Clinton had ended up in the Costco, as she usually has her servants' servants go to the market for her. Some suggested she wanted to disguise herself and go be among her subjects to see how the other 99% lives." . . .

The Bee added, "Asylum Orderlies Return Hillary Clinton To Padded Cell Disguised As Oval Office"

Bobby O'Rourke says it's not Tulsi...it's Trump!   . . . "First off Beto, it’s not a false media narrative. It’s your fearless leader’s Russian smear campaign.

"Secondly, I think it’s been pretty well established that regardless of Trump’s faults, he is no Russian asset. How can you take a Clinton screw-up and redirect it at Trump? Welcome to partisan politics. "  Sheeesh!

Law Enforcement Says NOPE To Beto’s Gun Confiscation Plans

Victory Girls  Video...from CNN yet

"Law enforcement agencies will be perfectly fine going door-to-door confiscating those eeeevil AR-15’s and AK-47’s says Beto O’Rourke. The problem with Beto’s assertion? Law enforcement agencies and organizations are NOT fine with it.

“National law enforcement organizations harshly criticized Democratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke’s plan to send police officers to collect AR-15s and AK-47s from those who refuse to turn them in under his mandatory buyback scheme.

In interviews with the Washington Free Beacon, leaders from groups representing hundreds of thousands of law enforcement officers described Beto’s gun confiscation plan as “ridiculous,” “asinine,” and likely unconstitutional.”

"I’m with them. You see, his plan goes way beyond asinine. But he’s so down with his plan that he’s using his young son to drive the point home." . . .
. . . 
"Understandably, members of law enforcement are not on board with Beto’s plan.

“”I’m not sure whether his statements are naive or just plain ignorant and arrogant. Maybe it’s all three,” said Eddy County Sheriff Mark Cage. “The thought of anyone utilizing my sheriff’s office or any other law enforcement agency in this country as their personal Gestapo to go door to door violating citizen’s(SP) rights is disgusting, unrealistic and downright un-American.”

Cage is concerned if any law enforcement agency participates in O’Rourke’s plan on a large scale, “bloodshed would be inevitable,” adding that “some of my constituents are already adopting the mantra of ‘Come take mine Beto!’…His rhetoric has gotten old and I look forward to the day when he shuts up.' ”

 The Morning Briefing: Beto Is Wrong About Everything and He'll Soon Be Gone

From PJ Media: . . . O'Rourke is the dumbest Democrat still standing, which is saying a lot in a field that includes Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Because most celebrities are stupid, Beto still has a lot of entertainment industry support.
