The Liberal Smear Job Designed to Intimidate Justice Thomas Will Fail

 The American Spectator | USA News and Politics

What better way to target Justice Thomas than by attacking his wife?



Virginia Thomas — yes, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas — is a decidedly well-known, very respected, and longtime conservative activist.
Imagine that! A political activist married to a prominent government official! Ohhhh the humanity!
"Mrs. Thomas has been smacked by the liberal media because she had the nerve — the nerve! — to text Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows in the aftermath of the November 2020 election. She called the election “the greatest Heist of our History” and said lawyer Sidney Powell should be “the lead and the face” of Trump’s legal team. News reports have the police state-style Jan. 6 Committee possibly issuing a subpoena for her to appear. (No plans, though, to subpoena Speaker Nancy Pelosi or committee member Rep. Jamie Raskin, both of whom had responsibilities for the security of the Capitol building.)
. . . [NY Times attack on the Thomases here]
"Note: The call from Sen. Wyden, (Dem, OR) for Justice Thomas to recuse himself from “any case related to the Jan. 6 investigation” is utterly typical of Washington hypocrisy. Take a look at this 2021 story by the New York Post on Wyden.
"The headline:
US Sen. Ron Wyden boosts chipmakers while his wife buys their shares
"This gem of a story says that Wyden has pushed legislation that directly benefits his wife, who owns considerable shares of stock in the very semiconductor chip industry his legislation would benefit.
"And this guy has the nerve to lecture Justice and Mrs. Thomas? What a joke.
"Allow me to translate the rest of the Times article.
"The New York Times is a hardline, far-left newspaper. It cannot abide conservatives, and most particularly it cannot abide a black man who is not a similarly inclined hardline leftist. Justice Thomas long ago walked off the liberal plantation and has the audacity to think for himself. The Times hates him for it and always has.
"And note the line that “…Ms. Thomas had long been viewed with suspicion by the Republican establishment.” You don’t say! The same RINO wing of the GOP that hated Ronald Reagan in the day — and Donald Trump now — hates Ginni Thomas, too.
"The hard fact here is that as with any other activist of any stripe, one can agree or disagree with his or her position on X. But to smear them and try to intimidate them into silence in order to rig a Supreme Court decision is not simply wrong but decidedly un-American. I don’t agree with the New York Times — but I don’t want it shut down. I want the paper to have the same right as Ginni Thomas — to speak freely. And I want every liberal member of the Court to vote as they see fit.". . .Full Article here

America is in good hands with Democrats and Mitt Romney

 


Romney and Murkowski make it three Republicans backing Jackson for Supreme Court | Washington Examiner   "The decision marks a turn for Romney, who voted against Jackson's nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in 2021."

Romney thought Jackson unfit for a lower court but fine for the highest court in the land?

Mitt Romney is insane to vote to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson - American Thinker

. . ."For a man of the Mormon faith to accept a judge who is perennially partial to purveyors of child pornography is incomprehensible.  How does a man with five sons and twenty-four grandchildren suffer from the same blind spot as Judge Jackson?  Only his hatred of all things Trumpian, like common sense, can explain such an appalling breach of American values, let alone Mormon values.". . .




Whistleblower who handed Hunter's abandoned laptop to congressmen and DailyMail.com reveals he has 450 gigabytes of DELETED material including 80,000 images and videos

"-  and has fled to Switzerland fearing retaliation from White House"




"The source who distributed Hunter Biden's laptop to congressmen and media has fled the US to Switzerland, saying he fears retaliation from the Biden administration.

"Jack Maxey gave DailyMail.com a copy of the hard drive from Hunter's abandoned laptop in the spring of 2021.

"He also gave copies and material from it to the Washington Post, New York Times, and Senator Chuck Grassley in his role as ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee – but he claims they all sat on it for months.

"For the past two weeks, Maxey has been in hiding in Zurich, working with IT experts to dig out more data from the 'laptop from hell'.

"Maxey, a former co-host of ex-Donald Trump advisor Steve Bannon's podcast the War Room, claims he and his colleagues have found '450 gigabytes of deleted material' including 80,000 images and videos and more than 120,000 archived emails.

"He said he intends to post them all online in a searchable database in the coming weeks.". . .

Did Joe Biden's Millions Really Come From His Book Sales? (thefederalist.com)  "In the week prior to the presidential election, I wrote a piece that asked the question, “Where Is Hunter Biden’s Money?” It was an important question then, even more so now. Given the legacy media’s recent validation of Hunter’s laptop that discussed a slice of equity planned for the “Big Guy” in a deal that involved an entity controlled by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), we should know if any money from it (or other foreign sources) ended up in Joe Biden’s pocket, but we don’t.

"Recall that despite then-presidential candidate Biden having bragged that he had released his tax returns with what his team called “a historic level of transparency,” the truth is that he only released his individual returns. Those returns provided no detail regarding the source of most of his income, dollars that flowed to him and his wife Jill by way of S-corporations they set up shortly after his departure from the office of vice president. Those entities, CelticCapri Corp (his) and Giacoppa Corp (hers), contained more than $13 million of the $17 million the couple had reported in income after Biden left office, most of it in the first year (2017).

"The same media that ignored Hunter’s laptop has shown a complete incuriosity about these entities, accepting the premise that Joe and Jill raked in $13 million from their book deal to generate their huge increase in income. We simply don’t know if that’s true, though. What we do know is that their book sales were dismal. ". . . 

CIA told Obama of claim Hillary Clinton conjured Trump-Russia scandal: spy chief

 CIA told Obama of claim Clinton conjured Trump-Russia scandal: spy chief (nypost.com)


"Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe on Tuesday revealed a bombshell allegation that Hillary Clinton ordered “a campaign plan to stir up a scandal” by linking President Trump to Russia in 2016 — and that then-President Barack Obama knew about her possible role.

"Ratcliffe disclosed the information in a letter published by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) just hours before Trump debates Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, who was vice president at the time.

"Clinton’s alleged July 2016 plot would tar Trump by “tying him to [Russian President Vladimir] Putin and the Russians’ hacking of the Democratic National Committee,” Ratcliffe wrote Graham, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

"Handwritten notes by then-CIA Director John Brennan, who now is a fiery anti-Trump commentator, say that Brennan briefed Obama on “alleged approval by Hillary Clinton on July 26, 2016 of a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by Russian security services.”

"The FBI opened its investigation of possible Trump-Russia collusion on July 31, 2016 — five days after Clinton allegedly hatched the plan — premised on Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos allegedly telling an Australian diplomat that Russia had damaging information on Clinton, the 2016 Democratic nominee.". . .

Barack Obama: I Was Worried About Triggering Further Russian Invasion if I Armed and Trained Ukraine


 Obama: I Was Worried About Triggering Further Russian Invasion if I Armed and Trained Ukraine (breitbart.com)    "The former president discussed Russia and Ukraine in an interview with Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg.

Obama dismissed questions about whether he regretted not doing more to defend Ukraine, as the late Sen. John McCain urged his administration to do, when Putin was moving into eastern parts of Ukraine.

“ 'I  actually don’t because the circumstances were different,” he replied.

"Obama said arming and training Ukrainians at that time could have triggered Russia to invade further.

“ 'We were also concerned about making sure that we did not give an excuse for a further incursion, and a lot of the arguments back then had to do with arming Ukraine which in turn could have provided those kinds of excuses and you had issues of training,” he said.

"Obama provided humanitarian aid to Ukraine but resisted sending arms such as anti-tank Javelins and other weapons.". . .

From the comments to this post:

Obama was an absolute foreign policy blunder. Syria, Crimea, North Korea….the list is lengthy. They could smell what a wuss he was. They smell the same wussiness in Biden

 Obama : “Arming and training Ukrainian’s at that time could have triggered Russia further, so I sent them blankets instead.” 

2005 quote from Senator Obama: “We simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States undetected, undocumented, unchecked, and circumventing the line of people who are waiting patiently, diligently, and lawfully to become immigrants in this country.”

"Again, who was the clown who said:

"I promise 100% transparency in my administration.”.
“I promise NO NEW TAXES on a family making less than $250K a year.”.
“I will allow 5 days of public comment before I sign any bills.”.
“I will remove earmarks before I sign any bill.”.
“I will end Income Tax for seniors making less than $50K a year.”.
“I’ll put the Health Care negotiations on CSPAN so everyone can see who is at the table!”
“I’ll have no lobbyists in my administration."
"I'll close Guantanamo Bay."
"I believe marriage is between one man and one woman."
"I won't seek re-election unless unemployment falls below 5%."
"I'll unite the people of this great country."
“If you like your insurance you can keep it”
“If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor.”
And please don’t forget those “shovel ready jobs”.

 America under Obama bullied and mocked by our enemies  around the world.

Back to "Barack and I"

How can this vindictive, self-loving man think so highly of himself?

Obama's bloodless coup - American Thinker  

Joe Biden is a fairly mean girl himself.  And one covered in lies and corruption.  But Obama accomplished the impossible.  He created sympathy for Biden.

. . ." The primaries are almost upon us, and it is utterly mandatory that we select strong Republican candidates.  The candidates who have the best chance of winning in November.  It is time to accept a Republican with whom one agrees with some of the time, over a Democrats with whom one agrees none of the time.

"Obama's ugly display of contempt at the White House is uncharted territory.  Who knows what the Democrats are plotting?

"If our country doesn't drastically change course in November, it will become unrecognizable. "


 Obama: Same Old Narcissist as Always – PJ Media   "There is no one in this world that Barack Obama loves more than himself. The moment he walks into a room, everything is about him. He loves attention—he craves it.

"And when he returned to the White House on Tuesday, it’s no surprise that he couldn’t stop talking about himself in his speech.". . .

Proof has emerged from the White House that Biden's presidency is over - American Thinker    "Barack Obama was at the White House yesterday, making it clear, as did others at the reception held in Obama's honor, that Biden's presidency is over. Watching Obama suck the oxygen out of the room made me wonder if Obama is planning a comeback, something he can easily do.

"The ostensible reason for Obama's return to the White House was to celebrate Obamacare's twelfth anniversary (if you can celebrate our modern, cowardly, corporate-run "medical care," along with overpriced insurance that does little for people with serious health issues).  The reception in Obama's honor, though, hinted that the event's real purpose was to signal to Democrat apparatchiks that Biden is now shark chum.

"The chumming process began when Obama referred to Biden as the "vice president," adding, after a long pause, "That was a joke.' ". . .

. . ."There are three takeaways:

1. Barack Obama, whether in his walled D.C. Kalorama home or in his coastal properties in Martha's Vineyard or Hawaii, is probably the one running the White House show.

2. Obama has signaled that Biden's presidency is over, making Biden toxic.  That's the message Tucker Carlson drew, something he illustrated with clips showing Democrat media talking heads finally addressing Biden's economic failures:. . .

1. Have the Democrat establishment remove Kamala Harris from office, whether through threats or bribes.

2. Have the Democrats declare that, because world instability (Ukraine, Putin, China) puts us at unprecedented risk, only a politically seasoned person can be vice president, with Obama graciously accepting that role.

3. Oust Biden using the 25th Amendment.  And voilà!  President Obama (again).  He can even have Stacey Abrams as his veep.

. . ."The 22nd Amendment does not bar Obama from regaining the presidency this way.  It only stops him from being "elected to the office."  The three steps above avoid an election.

"Obama will then have two and a half years to lock down America's "fundamental transformation" into a fully socialized third-world country, and Biden has given him a head start when it comes to destroying institutions.  Heck, if Obama does the job right, he can be the new Putin or ErdoÄŸan: America's president for life.

"And yes, I agree this sounds crazy, but events since 2020 show that we really are nothing more than a fancy banana republic."
