Have a Historically Accurate Thanksgiving!

 Ann Coulter

Parkman describes a typical Iroquois celebration following one of their attacks on their fellow "Native Americans" (an absurd term, inasmuch as no Indians were "native" to America because there was no "America" until white Europeans got here and created it):


"As every public school child knows, the first Thanksgiving took place in 1621, when our Pilgrim forefathers took a break from slaughtering Peaceful, Environmentally Friendly, Indigenous Peoples to invite them to dinner in order to infect them with smallpox, before embarking on their mission to fry the planet so that the world would end on Jan. 22, 2031.

"Consider this description of the Pilgrims' treatment of the Indigenous peoples:

"They were the worst of conquerors. Inordinate pride, the lust of blood and dominion, were the mainsprings of their warfare; and their victories were strained with every excess of savage passion."

"Except that's not a description of the Pilgrims' treatment of Indigenous peoples. It's a description of some Indigenous people's treatment of other Indigenous peoples, written by the late Francis Parkman, Harvard professor and the world's foremost Indian scholar."

"The Wampanoag, who joined the Pilgrims at the first Thanksgiving, had a lot to celebrate. Contrary to Hollywood's American-hating rendition of "Pocahontas," in which the Indians feared the "White Demons," the Wampanoag were thrilled with their well-armed white allies, who helped them repel the hated Iroquois and Narragansett.

"The whole reason the Wampanoag were clustered so close to the coast where the Pilgrims encountered them was that the Iroquois had "pursued them with an inveterate enmity. Some (Wampanoag) paid yearly tribute to their tyrants, while others were still subject to their inroads, flying in terror at the sound of the Mohawk war-cry."...

"Real Americans honor Indians and also honor the courageous European settlers who brought Christian civilization to a continent, a miraculous union that we celebrate on this wonderful holiday.

"Happy Thanksgiving!"


The Hollywood president: Here are the celebs Barack Obama name-drops in his new book



Statesman  "
When he was president, Barack Obama wasn’t known for shying away from brushes with fame — and that fact is obvious when you see how many celebrity names he casually drops in “A Promised Land.”

"Obama’s new memoir covers his early political career and his first 2 1/2 years in the White House, closing with the killing of Osama bin Laden in May 2011.

"Writing in the new book about the music series he and first lady Michelle Obama put in place at the White House, he invokes “household names like Stevie Wonder, Jennifer Lopez, and Justin Timberlake but also up-and-comers like Leon Bridges and living legends like B.B. King.”

"Remembering the 2011 White House Correspondents Dinner, he mentions “making small talk while guests like Rupert Murdoch, Sean Penn, John Boehner, and Scarlett Johansson mingled over wine and overcooked steaks.”

"He says he favored songs by Jay-Z and Eminem to get his head in the right place on debate days, with some audio help from Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Frank Sinatra. And Sammy Davis Jr. is mentioned when Obama recounts stories about inaugurations past. Does name-dropping the deceased even count? Let’s say it does.

"Read on for glimpses into the Obamas’ star-studded life at the name-droppiest White House ever. All excerpts were penned by the former president.

"Oprah Winfrey

"Obama reflected on the time Winfrey spent working on his campaign for president.

“ 'We had a few high-profile moments of our own, including a series of rallies with Oprah Winfrey, who’d become a friend and supporter, and was as wise, funny, and gracious on the trail as she was in person . . ."

Hunter Biden’s ‘Laptop From Hell’ Whistleblower Goes Missing After Death Threats

 Newspunch


"The Delaware computer repairman who gave Hunter Biden’s “laptop from hell” to Rudy Giuliani and the New York Post has gone missing, with his personal lawyer unwilling or unable to provide information about the welfare of his client.

"According to Delaware Online:

Annapolis-based attorney, Brian Della Rocca, said Mac Isaac closed the shop after receiving death threats. He declined to disclose where his client might have gone, or even if he had left town. 

"The meeting between Hunter Biden and Mac Isaac on April 12, 2019, became a global news story during the election campaign, reaching the White House via Silicon Valley and inhabited by a colourful cast of characters.

"As well as the albino shop owner, there’s Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, a burly wrestler turned US Navy officer, a nerdy tech wizard and the President himself.

"Mr Mac Isaac, 44, completed a one-page form with Hunter’s name, address and mobile phone details – all of which have been verified – and a bill for $85 due on completion of the work.

"He told his customer he would need to copy the contents of the MacBook on to an external hard drive to recover them and the process would take a few days.

"The man left – but never returned. Under US law, when 90 days had passed, the uncollected laptop legally became Mr Mac Isaac’s property.

"He decided to look at the recovered material on the laptop – which is now in the hands of the FBI as part of an investigation in which Mr Mac Isaac is a material witness – and says a chill ran down his spine.

"The Mail on Sunday today reveals some of that material for the first time – exposing how the son of the man tipped to be America’s next President left himself wide open to blackmail.

"Mr MacIsaac fears repercussions. ‘I have everything documented. I have everything saved. But the shop is over. I won’t be able to sustain my business… too many people are angry.’ " . . .

Joe Biden is reviving all of his past failures — and it won’t stop: Goodwin


 Michael Goodwin "Psst, an occasionally reliable source tells me Joe Biden has settled on a motto for his administration. It’s going to be “The Way We Were.”

"Just before he announced the first members of his team, the next president was heard singing in his Delaware basement,

“ 'Memories light the corners of my mind,

“Misty water-colored memories of the way we were.”

"My source claims Biden wanted Perry Como to sing the song at the inauguration. Informed that Como died nearly 20 years ago, Biden agreed to let a fresh face, Barbra Streisand, give it a try.

"The next president turned 78 last Friday and his first selections reveal he’s got a bad case of nostalgia. Less kindly, he’s stuck in the past.

" 'Is Biden assembling an administration or a wax museum? John Kerry and Janet Yellen, you’re melting! And it has nothing to do with climate change.

" 'The problem is not just that Biden’s selections show a fondness for old shoes. It’s the policies, stupid.

" 'Robert Gates, who ran the CIA and was later secretary of defense during much of the Obama-Biden administration, famously said of the former vice president, “I think he’s been wrong on nearly every major foreign-policy and national security issue over the past four decades.”

" 'In Washington terms, that gives Biden a perfect record, and because nothing succeeds like failure, it’s not surprising he would tap others involved in many of the same policy disasters.

" 'As Sen. Marco Rubio described it, Biden has gathered “polite and orderly caretakers of American decline.”

" 'America First is dead, America Last is back. Is there a good idea in the house?".... . . 



Impeach Joe Biden

 "To be sure, the last thing we’d want is for Biden to be removed from office and the reins handed over to Kamala Harris. " . . .

Rich Terrell

Issues & Insights  "Even before Donald Trump secured the Republican nomination, the left was calling for his impeachment. Then they spent four years looking for excuses to drive him out of office. So, in the turnabout-is-fair-play department, perhaps it’s time to start making the case for impeaching Joe Biden.

"Let’s first review how the left treated Trump’s win four years ago. Immediately, #resistance started trending on social media, as though somehow Trump had invaded the country. 

"Protesters shouted “not my president.” Pundits speculated that he’d rigged elections in the battleground states he won. The entire country was then treated to years of fake news about how Trump supposedly colluded with Russia to steal the election.

"Throughout it all, there was the constant buzz about Trump’s impeachment and a steady stream of stories such as:

“ 'Could Trump be impeached shortly after he takes office?”

“ 'People Are Searching Google for Ways to Impeach Donald Trump”

“ 'Democrats Are Paving the Way to Impeach Donald Trump”

“ 'Talk of Impeaching Trump May Be Premature, But Its Time Will Come “

"These and countless other headlines ran before Trump’s inauguration.

"Heck, the New York Daily News penned an editorial titled “Impeach Trump” that ran on March 2, 2016 – two months before he was the GOP nominee. The entire editorial consisted of one sentence: “It’s not too early to start.”

"None of these calls was based on anything credible or actually impeachable. How could they be, since Trump presumably would have to actually be in office to commit any “high crimes and misdemeanors”?

"All of it was designed to serve one purpose: To cast his presidency as illegitimate, undermine his ability to get anything done, and lay the groundwork for his defeat in 2020. When Democrats did finally find an excuse to impeach Trump, it was a farce that even they completely ignored after it was over.

"Now, these same miscreants are acting as though Trump is threatening to destroy the country by insisting that multiple accusations of election fraud be investigated before states certify the results. Suddenly, doing anything to undermine the credibility of a Joe Biden presidency is dangerously un-American." . . .



Secretary of state pick Antony Blinken met twice with Hunter Biden

NY Post    Hunter Biden sought a meeting with his president-elect dad’s pick for secretary of state shortly after joining the board of a controversial Ukrainian energy company in 2015, according to a report Tuesday.

"Biden emailed Antony Blinken, then the US deputy secretary of state, to request the sit-down, Fox News said.

"“Have a few minutes next week to grab a cup of coffee? I know you are impossibly busy, but would like to get your advice on a couple of things,” Hunter Biden reportedly wrote on May 22, 2015.

"Blinken replied, “Absolutely,” and the two exchanged several more messages regarding the time and place, Fox News said.

"On May 27, 2015, Blinken’s assistant emailed Biden with Blinken’s schedule for that day, which included a 3:30 p.m. meeting between the two men, Fox News said.

"But the meeting never took place because Biden’s older brother, Beau, was terminally ill with brain cancer and died three days later, The Washington Post reported last year.

"Biden and Blinken — a longtime aide to Biden’s father and a family friend — later met in July 2015 and “spoke about Beau and the Biden family” but they didn’t discuss Burisma, a person familiar with the meeting told the Post.

"The emails between Biden and Blinken were obtained last year in response to a Freedom of Information Act request, Fox News said." . . .


COVID-19 flare-up and tyrannical edicts: Just a coincidence right after the election fraud?

Dark Angel Politics
However, cranking up the COVID-19 hysteria right now might just be the ticket for a timely fear-filled, distraction from massive Democrat vote fraud and criminality. 
 C.M. Mentor  "Well, here we go again. COVID-19 hysteria is peaking once more and it's coming just days after a momentous presidential election. 
"What a coincidence! Is there any possibility that this is happening because the Democrats feel the need for a big, attention-getting distraction from the stench of a fixed election?
 
"It is becoming very apparent that there was a mind-blowing level of vote fraud, in several states at least, to rob Donald Trump of a landslide victory. Not the usual, criminal Democrat vote fraud, but industrial-strength, highly criminal, highly coordinated fraud. Fraud using every known trick and what looks like a bunch of new ones, too.
 
"The usual tricks include dead people voting, people voting multiple times, paid-for votes, miscounted votes, deleted votes, created votes, etc. etc. These things seem to happen every election when Democrats are in control.
 
"This election, however, might involve ballot creation and vote-tabulating computer software jiggering on a massive scale. Truckloads of ballots delivered in the middle of the night, pristine ballots for only candidate Joe Biden with printer-accuracy selection marks or machine manipulated irregular marks, large vote blocs suddenly moving from Trump to Biden, all vote blocs marking only Biden, and exactly the same percentage of votes favoring Biden versus Trump in numerous state precincts, and many other very odd anomalies. All of this stinks and everyone knows it.
 
"Fair-minded people know that Donald Trump's campaign was light-years ahead of sleepy, masked, basement-dwelling Joe Biden's. Trump often had four or five events every day which drew tens-of-thousands each. He did this day after day and he is 74 years old! There was tremendous enthusiasm for his candidacy. Joe Biden often drew about 10 people at his events, and sometimes voters literally ignored him. Fortunately, they were all in their safety circles with face masks on. Donald Trumps outstanding campaign, the success of down-ballot Republicans, and his resounding vote lead well after polls closed all point to his highly-probable, amazing victory.
 
"When confronted with the Trump vote margins, Democrat web-spinners obviously said to themselves "Whoa, Nellie!" They instructed their comrades in the various swing states to stop the vote count to give time to get more Biden ballots and "adjust" the vote tabulating computer settings and software. The fact that the vote counting was stopped at all and that it was done in multiple states at the same time is an obvious tip-off to coordinated fraud.
