Kill Back Better

Serenity's mother complained that the police and prosecutors are "just bickering." That was her assessment of the situation -- not that Chicago has a prosecutor who won't prosecute murder. This may explain why -- in addition to George Soros's $2 million donation -- Foxx was reelected last year.

 Ann Coulter

"This isn't a Chicago story. It's a Democrat** Party story.

"Kim Foxx, the state's attorney for Cook County and darling of MSNBC, has managed to increase murders in Chicago to astounding levels even at a time when we're all getting used to astounding crime figures. Nationwide in 2020, murder and non-negligent manslaughter were up 29.4%, according to the FBI. That's more than double the previous record of 1968, when murders increased by 12.7%.

"Under the careful management of Foxx, murders in Chicago were up 55%. To put this in perspective, last year, there were nearly as many murders in Chicago (population: 2.7 million) as in New York City and Los Angeles combined (total population: more than 12 million).

"Perhaps you've heard about the Wild West shootout in the Austin neighborhood of Chicago two weeks ago? One group of gang members shot up the house of rival gang members at around 10 in the morning. They blasted the house with more than 70 rounds, using handguns that had been modified into automatic weapons. Their rivals fired back from inside the home, in a gun battle that lasted so long, it was still going on when the police arrived.". . . 

..."But as I said, this is not a story about Chicago. Kim Foxx is a dangerous nut, but she's not a random dangerous nut. She is the Democratic Party's beau ideal of criminal justice"...

..."Liberal moneybags George Soros has spent millions of dollars installing criminal-friendly prosecutors around the country. (Back before it was "anti-Semitic" to mention Soros' pro-murder campaign, The New York Times ran an article boasting of the old prune's role in electing inert prosecutors, like Foxx.)"...

..."MSNBC, mouthpiece of the Democratic Party, was ecstatic the night Foxx won the election that would make her Cook County's top prosecutor, with Lawrence O'Donnell giddily interviewing the pro-criminal Foxx. She was triumphantly interviewed again that weekend by Al Sharpton."...

..."As dead bodies pile up in Chicago under Kim Foxx, remember: This is the criminal justice "reform" Democrats want for the entire country."...

Kyle Rittenhouse Case: Is the Gun Charge A Sinister Attack on Kyle’s Self-Defense?

 If the jury finds itself looking for a reason to completely unravel self-defense entirely, however, and simply convict Rittenhouse of all the charges regardless of the lack of legal merit to support such a verdict, a desperate effort by the prosecution to characterize this misdemeanor offense as the “provocation with intent” needed to crush the legal defense entirely may provide the jury with just the excuse they need to do exactly that.

Legal Insurrection

Rittenhouse’s criminal trial is scheduled to begin on Monday, November 1, 2021. And thanks to the kind sponsorship of Legal Insurrection, we’ll be here live.



"So why also include a misdemeanor charge good for at worst 9 months in jail and a $10,000 fine—and, given Kyle’s perfectly clean criminal history, how unlikely it is that he’d receive that maximum punishment even if convicted of this charge?

"There were two key issues I wanted to tackle on this matter of this misdemeanor gun charge.

"First, which we covered in yesterday’s content, was whether Rittenhouse had even violated the relevant gun law in the first place.  You can find that content here: “Rittenhouse: Should Misdemeanor Gun Charge Just Be Dismissed?”

"The bottom line was that a plain-English reading of the relevant Wisconsin statutes would appear to exclude Rittenhouse from any criminal liability under the charged misdemeanor gun crime.  It is for this basis that the defense has filed a motion, still under consideration by Judge Schroeder, to have this gun charge dismissed.

"Second, and the issue we’ll discuss in today’s content, is why is Assistant DA Binger so aggressively pursuing this relatively modest misdemeanor gun charge against Rittenhouse when he already has a handful of serious felony charges pending against the defendant?  Is there a simple, straightforward rationale for this?

"Or might the prosecutor have a more sinister strategy behind bringing this charge—a strategy that threatens the very core of Rittenhouse’s self-defense? A strategy that, if successful, would leave Rittenhouse defenseless against conviction on every one of the felony charges brought against him?

"So, grab a seat and make yourself comfortable, as we dive into this second question about the why behind this misdemeanor gun charge.". . . 


EPIC RANT: Famous Investor Comes Out Of Nowhere To Debunk TONS Of Fake News Narratives About Trump


 Trending Politics   Michael Burry become a household name after his story was featured in the film “The Big Short”. He risked hundreds of millions of dollars on a bet that the housing market would crash in 2007-2008…and he was right. 

"In more recent times, he has sounded the alarm multiple times about inflation and the impending “economic doom” that are country will face.

"However, his Twitter account is incredibly mysterious. He only keeps tweets up for a few hours at a time, and sometimes he deletes his entire Twitter account altogether.

"Today, he set his sights on the lying liberal media.

"Here are screenshots of some of his best tweets of the day that spit in the face of the anti-Trump media:


McConnell Wants Garland to Clarify His Memo Demonizing Parents Protesting Critical Race Theory

 Legal Insurrection   "Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell demanded AG Garland clarify his memo that told the FBI and other DOJ departments to investigate parents protesting critical race theory.

"Garland cited threats. harassment, and intimidation as reasons for his actions. He never provided a specific example.

"McConnell expressed concern about the memo because it could stifle parents’ freedom of speech.

“Parents absolutely should be telling what their local schools what to teach,” wrote McConnell. “This is the very basis of representative government. They do this both in elections and – as protected by the First Amendment of the Constitution – while petitioning their government for redress of grievance. Telling elected officials they’re wrong is democracy, not intimidation.”

"However, McConnell noted that school boards and those who side with the school boards have threatened, harassed, and intimidated parents who don’t want critical race theory taught to their kids:

On the other hand, in your own very backyard of Virginia, there have been shocking efforts by public officials to organize for the intimidation and harassment of parents who have the temerity to want a better education for their children. one Loudon County schoolboard member participated in a Facebook group that compiled a list of parents opposed to Critical Race Theory and discussed having their websites. It’s a situation where legal accountability is difficult because the Loudon County Prosecutor was also a member of the group seeking to “doxx” concerned parents. It’s exactly this kind of intimidation of private citizens by government officials that our federal civil laws were designed to prevent. . . .

Freedom From Censorship: Inside The Battle To Build A Second Internet; "Why I’m joining RightForge."


The Federalist  . . . "President Trump was far from the first to be banned by Twitter, but his permanent suspension marked the start of a long, dark night, when anyone anywhere might be banned for anything at the whim of a technocrat.

"We’d seen warnings the sun was setting on a free internet: Mozilla Firefox President and cofounder Brendan Eich was fired over his Christian religion in 2014; Google worked openly to demonetize content it didn’t like in 2020; and that same year social media giants censored a true story from a major newspaper founded by Alexander Hamilton in order to assist their political allies. Treating the U.S. president worse than a terrorist spokesman, however, was something new.

"In response, President Trump’s followers flocked to Parler, a Twitter competitor that hadn’t banned him from their platform, quickly making it a top-downloaded app in the Apple and Google Play stores. Seeing the threat to their censorship, on Saturday both stores announced they would ban the company’s app. That evening, their web host, Amazon Web Services, took Parler entirely off the internet.

"These actions can’t be overstated: To ban an app from the major stores is to essentially ban it from being used by any of your customers — and at the moment of its greatest momentum. To ban it from the very servers it uses is to lower it into its grave. For three of the most powerful companies on the planet to do so in concert is nothing less than the end of a crucial idea — that if you don’t like the way something’s done, you can do it yourself, and if you’re good and lucky enough you might even succeed. We called that idea the American dream." . . .

DeSantis Celebrates Banning Zuckerberg’s Election Meddling As A Win For Safe, Secure Voting

Zuckerberg didn’t just help Democrats by censoring their political opponents. He directly funded liberal groups running partisan get-out-the-vote operations. In fact, he helped those groups infiltrate election offices in key swing states by doling out large grants to crucial districts, Federalist Senior Editor Mollie Hemingway wrote in her new book “Rigged: How the Media, Big Tech, and the Democrats Seized Our Elections.”

Joe Biden Invites Brandon To The White House To Congratulate Him For His Success

"President Biden has invited national hero "Brandon" to the White House to congratulate him on his smashing success at football games, NASCAR races, and even gatherings of New York City educators.

"Wow, this Brandon must be quite a fella!" said President Biden after listening to another raucous chant. "For him to get crowds from all across this divided country to all be united together with such passion?  I just can't believe that many people could all feel so strongly about one single man! We need a lot more Brandons in our country, I'll tell you that right now! Let's go, Brandon!"

"President Biden reportedly was so impressed with the national unity he was witnessing, he asked aides to record every single instance of crowds cheering "Let's go Brandon!" so he could listen to them all in a row. The President has apparently taken to showing the clips to lawmakers to start off meetings, in hopes of helping each side find a slice of common ground they can really agree on.". . .

The ship's sinking, all right


James A. Nollet  "So while the border, which Heels Up Harris is supposed to be overseeing, is in chaos, she instead was wasting her time and ours by putting out an awful "Get Curious" video designed to promote teenage interest in space exploration — but, more importantly, to push Heels Up's own fading brand into the public eye to prop up her diminishing credibility.

"The video was put together by not an American company, but instead a Canadian company despite the fact that Biden's own Build Back Better schemes supposedly emphasize full employment via domestic production.

"And to make matters even more embarrassing, the very name of the company reflects the rapidly plummeting fortunes of both the Harris and the crumbling Biden administration.

"Here is the company logo — 'nuff said!"


"Sinking Ship," indeed.  Heels Up sure picked the right company to do her ridiculous video; that's all I got to say!

"But in all fairness, how "ridiculous" is the video?". . . 

Kamala: European “Explorers Ushered in a Wave of Devastation for Tribal Nations” …Hardly an Advocate for America, Huh?

Vice President Kamala Harris denigrated the European explorers who discovered the Americas during a Tuesday speech at the National Congress of American Indians 78th Annual Convention.

 Kingsjester's Blog . . . "Don’t you just cringe when somebody like VP Kamala Harris, who was elected by a bunch of “Europeans”, disparages how awful that it was that Columbus began the movement toward the colonization of what is now the United States of America?

"Man is a fallen creature. No one is perfect.

"The Constantly-warring tribes in Africa would capture a weaker tribe and sell them as slaves to the European Traders.

"The North American Indians did not exactly live in peace and harmony with each other, either.

"Between this load of garbage and the staged NASA Event with the child actors, Harris continues to prove what a self-centered lightweight that she is.

"Even her one-time paramour, Willie Brown, did not think that she should be the Vice-President of the United States of America.". . . 

"According to nypost.com… 

Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown has urged ex-girlfriend Sen. Kamala Harris to reject presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden if he asks her to be his running mate. . .

 . . ."By the way, Willie Brown was still married while he and Kamala Harris were “dating”.  Classy, huh?". . .

The American People Are Rejecting a President Too Weak to Take On the Radicals in His Own Party

"Biden has earned his unpopularity through some combination of weakness and incompetence. The left wing of the Democratic Party has gone firmly out of the American mainstream in several policy areas. Instead of standing up to this fringe, Biden and the party have been catering to the socialists. It’s not clear if they do this because they agree with the insanity or they are too weak to oppose it, but either way, the good news is the American people are not buying it.

 

 Neil Patel  "Joe Biden’s poll numbers are tanking, especially among independent voters. The American people do not like weak leaders, and they do not like the craziness that’s infiltrating their daily lives.

"Biden campaigned as someone who could bring the country together. Since taking office, he’s made no effort to do that. Instead, he has continually conceded to his party’s far-left wing, which is growing crazier by the day. It’s not clear if Biden is just too weak to take them on or if he is buying into their craziness, but either way, people are not happy. 

"The Democrats are somehow making the Republicans seem appealing again to your average non-politically aligned voter. Given the current disarray in the Republican Party, this was a tall task. It’s almost as if the two parties are competing to see who can turn off the middle more. This week, the Democrats are in the lead. Their policies are so crazy not even their allies in the dominant corporate media can succeed in selling them.

"First, the numbers: Quinnipiac University is a major polling outlet not known
for a bias. In their latest poll, Biden’s overall job approval has plummeted down to 38 percent from highs in the mid-50s earlier in his presidency. Things look even worse for Biden when you look at the complete collapse of his support from political independents, who now disapprove of him by a 60 percent-to-32 percent margin.

"It gets worse yet again when you look at key issues independent voters really care about. On the economy, Biden’s underwater by 28 points. On taxes, by 30. On immigration overall, Biden is down 48 points among independents with only 22 percent approving, versus 70 percent disapproving. On Mexican border matters, it’s even worse, with a net negative of 55 percent. Sixty-three percent of independents don’t think Biden is a good leader, versus only 34 percent who do. Finally, only 35 percent of independents think the Biden Administration has been competent running the government, versus a whopping 62 percent who think they are incompetent.

"It’s not a pretty picture." 

"How did Biden squander all his popularity? It’s not hard to see when you analyze each issue.". . .
