Restaurant That Ejected Family of Trump Spokeswoman Closes!

  The Gateway Pundit | by Guest Contributor  ‘Telling 2/3 of the local population’ they are unwelcome is not the best business strategy

"Apparently telling two-thirds of the local population they are not welcome at your business is “not the best business decision,” suggests a report at National File about the closure of the “Commie Cluck” restaurant.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders 

"The report noted that Lexington, Virginia, facility actually was named The Red Hen, and it became infamous in a moment for a decision back in the day to eject from the premises then-Trump Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her family.

"Because she’s Republican.

"The report explained the owners have confirmed the business will close down, and later a new restaurant with a new name will replace it.

"The press secretary’s family was ejected from the restaurant in the middle of their meal in 2018 after “triggered left-wing employees called the restaurant’s left-wing owner, Stephanie Wilkinson, requesting that she take action to remove the family from their midst,” the report recalled.

"Wilkinson wildly claimed to the Washington Post at the time it was a “moment in our democracy when people have to make uncomfortable actions and decisions to uphold their morals.”

"The restaurant soon became known to critics as the “Commie Cluck” and while it became a destination eatery for the “elites” in Washington, locals stay away in droves.'

"Chef Matt Adams claimed the “core values” of the business “will live on.” . . .

This Thanksgiving, Joy-Ann Reid Has Much To Be Thankful For -

  Ann Coulter  "[This column is adapted from one that originally ran Thanksgiving Week 2021.]

"Why such a sourpuss, Joy-Ann? On the whole, life and MSNBC are treating you pretty well. And yet, over the last 10 years, you have complained pretty much nonstop about how badly you, and “people who look like [you],” are treated in America.

"I will take on faith, Joy-Ann, that your life up to age 16 — spent in the racist hellscape that was 1980s Denver, Colorado — was practically a maelstrom of cross burnings, Night Riders and segregated water fountains.

Let’s focus on the recent past.

"Consider:

" 'You were admitted to Harvard with SAT scores that would have gotten an Asian kid disowned by his parents.

"You manage to keep your show at MSNBC with ratings that would get a white person canceled.

"People try harder to laugh at your excruciating jokes than they would for a male of any race.

"Plus, I have it on good authority that no one at MSNBC has pestered you about touching your hair.

"Your brief daytime show on MSNBC made ratings history, garnering only 38,000 viewers in the demo its first day on air — the lowest for the entire network! That inched up to 56,000 viewers two days later, the second lowest for the network. Ronan Farrow’s show debuted the same week. But while he was quickly cashiered for poor ratings, you were promoted, even though he is white and you are black. Dodged a bullet there!

"You weren’t prosecuted for making a false FBI report when you claimed that right-wing saboteurs had hacked your blog, planting long, venomous threads about gay people. It seems your go-to attack for celebrities and Republicans is to accuse them of being gay. (For example, you described Dick Cheney “topping off” Sean Hannity — gay slang for oral sex — and repeatedly ran your “Top 5 ‘totally not gay celebrities of the year.'”)

"Nor were you fired for your preposterous, and quickly disproved, lies about having been hacked when it was you who mocked people for being gay — including Oprah.

"Your many, many blog posts sneering at gays were written just 10 years earlier, when you were an adult and a professional journalist. Meanwhile, teenagers — even white ones! — are being thrown out of college for the stupid things they said on Snapchat when they were 15. But you came through like a champ, without consequence — despite being black!

"Indeed, instead of firing you, MSNBC gave you a prime-time show. This is the network that canned Chris Matthews(astonishingly, another white male) for telling girls they’re pretty. And who took the humiliated Matthews’ time slot? YOU DID! Despite the fact that he is white and you are black." . . .

More Hamas Atrocities Documented, Strongly Supported By Palestinians and Ignored By Western Feminists

 Legal Insurrection

Survey by Palestinian polling firm shows 75% support for October 7 massacre. Defeating Hamas is just the first step if there ever is to be peace. Palestinian society is going to have to change, much like German and Japanese societies changed after their defeat. 

"We shouldn’t have to do this. But lowlife scum have been spreading false claims either that the Hamas massacre on October 7 never happened (e.g. The Palestinian Authority, you know, ‘the moderates’) or that Israeli did the killing (internet clickbait personalities like Jackson Hinkle and pathological anti-Israel fanatics like Max Blumenthal).

"So we continue with the video and other documentation of the Hamas atrocities.

"Huge Crowds of “Civilians” Taunting Hostages Reflect Palestinian Society

We’ve all seen the video of Shani Louk in the back of a pick up truck, mostly naked and her legs bent unnaturally, being beaten, spit upon, and molested by crowds. Until seeing this video, however, I didn’t realize how large the crowds were. It’s unclear if it is Louk in the trucks or other hostages and murder victims, because the white Toyota pick up trucks are common Hamas vehicles. But is looks like the terrorists in the rear of some of the vehicles are not the same ones in the Louk vehicle, so these likely include other victims. The crowd appears to be at least several hundred deep, maybe thousands. These are your innocent civilians we keep hearing about."

Lucianne.com News Forum - How Hamas Nazis Became an Environmentalist and Gun Control Cause   From Q***rs for Palestine to marchers carrying signs reading, “Palestine is a Reproductive Justice Issue”, the Hamas Nazi cause has been vertically integrated throughout the Left. Greta Thunberg was booed after injecting anti-Israel chants into environmental rallies. The BLM movement was a longtime foe of Israel, but Asian Studies departments recently joined in. The leaders of March for Our Lives and the Sunrise Movement, a gun control group and an environmental protest group, signed a letter to Biden warning that young people wouldn’t vote for him unless he forced Israel to stop attacking Hamas Nazis.

In red America, standing up for Israel isn't controversial (nypost.com) . . ."Ever since Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake gave rioters “space” to “destroy” in 2015, many municipal leaders have taken a hands-off attitude toward destructive mobs (at least those mobs aligned with the left, which to be fair is pretty much all of them). 

"This has been bolstered by the criminal-justice “reform” approach of not charging or prosecuting for most crimes even people who are arrested.

"University administrators have shown a similar unwillingness to enforce basic principles of social order and provide a basic level of security and protection for students and faculty targeted by angry mobs. 

"So it’s actually kind of newsworthy to note not everywhere operates that way.

"It’s possible for people to engage in free speech without official toleration of violence — in fact, it’s official intolerance of violence that makes free speech for everyone possible. " . . .

The Biden Economy and How It Could Be Fixed

 

Imprimis (hillsdale.edu)   "Just about everybody on Wall Street knows, despite what you read in the financial press, that the Biden administration’s economic policies are driving our economy into a recessionary ditch. In a recent Wall Street Journal survey of 23 large financial institutions that do business directly with the Federal Reserve, 16 predicted a recession in 2023 and two predicted a recession in 2024, while only five predicted that we would avoid a recession—although even those five predicted we’d have only one-half percent economic growth, well below the 2.1 percent average over the past 20 years and dangerously close to what has traditionally been considered a recession.

"A recession is defined, traditionally, as two consecutive quarters of negative economic growth. At least it was defined that way before the financial press redefined it prior to the 2022 midterms, ensuring that despite two consecutive quarters of negative growth, President Biden’s policies couldn’t be labeled recessionary. But regardless of the definition, this negative growth meant declining standards of living, fewer job opportunities, lower wages, and increased poverty for the American people. Overall, we have become a far less vibrant and far less prosperous society on the verge of a serious recession.

"The hard economic times we are experiencing are especially striking as they come on the heels of the Trump boom, which opened our eyes again to American economic potential when we have low taxes, reduced regulation, and a bountiful supply of domestic energy. Everybody, particularly minority and low-wage earners, reaped the benefits in the Trump years of abundant job opportunities, increasing wages, historic highs in family income, and historic lows in rates of poverty and unemployment.

"Consider some of the metrics. In 2019, the last year before the pandemic, median family income grew to nearly $73,000. It went up $4,600 in that year alone, a 6.4 percent increase over 2018—the largest annual increase going back to 1967. That amounted to 45 percent more growth in one year than the $3,200 increase that the Obama administration achieved in eight years. And contrary to what would become an election year talking point, the economic benefits were widespread. Every racial group experienced a record high median family income level: for white Americans it rose 5.7 percent; for black Americans, 7.9 percent; for Hispanic Americans, 7.1 percent; and for Asian Americans, 10.6 percent." . . .

The Bonfire of Biden’s Vanities

  Power Line

"By now I imagine most readers have seen the photo of Joe Biden’s birthday cake, which is the greatest moment of presidential self-immolation since Jimmy Carter was attacked by a rabbit or George H.W. Bush threw up on the Japanese prime minister.

"The amazing thing is that someone in the White House thought it was a keen idea to release this photo. Which wasn’t even competently shot.

"What’s up with gripping the sides of the table? I have a theory. People who think Democrats are playing Lucy and the football with Republicans, waiting to swap out Biden for someone more plausible once the GOP has settled on Trump, are mistaken. Biden’s table grip suggests his political vanity, always malignant even in his younger days, has entered its Gollum-like phase: The presidency is “my precious,” something he pined for his whole life and is not about to give up. “Don’t even think of throwing my presidential seals of office into that Mount Doom of my [too small] birthday cake.”

"I wish we had video of Biden trying to blow out the 81 candles on the cake. On the other hand, since he has been a blowhard all his adult life, it was probably easy for him."

Biden Mocked Into Oblivion After Posing with 81st Birthday Cake: 'Portal to Hell' (westernjournal.com)   . . ."Recall that after the devastating Aug. 8 wildfires in Maui, Hawaii, Biden waited 13 days to visit the island. When he finally arrived, he made a pathetic attempt to relate to the wildfire victims by sharing a story of a long-ago kitchen fire at his Delaware home.

"Whether as a “portal to hell” or a metaphor for his dumpster-fire administration, Biden’s bonfire of a birthday cake at least allowed us to laugh and keep from crying."

Obama Snubs Biden at 15th Anniversary of His Presidential Victory: 'Tensions Were Evident'

  The Gateway Pundit | by Bryan Chai, The Western Journal 

"The relationship between the POTUS and the VPOTUS can be a fickle thing.

"Sometimes things start out well enough but end badly, as they did with former President Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence.

"Other times, things sputter and struggle to even start out well, as with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

"And then there’s whatever is going on between former President Barack Obama and Biden, who served as the former’s VP in both presidential terms.

"The two-term Democrat ticket of Obama-Biden has always seemed like an odd fit from the outset — far more a marriage of convenience than anything else.

"Biden, very much a swampy, career politician, never quite felt like a natural extension of Obama, very much part of the new breed of far leftism infesting the Democratic Party (think the “squad.”)

"It doesn’t help dispel the odd couple vibe that Obama, for the many, many, many faults he has, at least has some semblance of a human personality — whereas Biden has all the charisma of a comatose wildebeest.

"Obama’s personality largely stems from his speaking ability, and it’s an ability the man clearly puts time and effort into. Whatever you may think of the man, when Obama speaks, it’s very deliberate, crafted and curated.

"So when Obama mentions — or doesn’t mention — something when speaking publicly, people take notice.

"In a less-than-glowing Sunday article from The Washington Post, the outlet that threatens democracy with darkness (or something to that effect) chronicled the way in which Democrats are furiously working to overturn the less-than-stellar image of the incumbent president — except for Obama." . . .

Joe Biden supporters had an especially paranoid couple of days   "It’s amazing that this man was once a congressman, because he clearly has zero understanding of both political philosophies and the American political system—for the umpteenth time, fascism is a leftist ideology and America was never supposed to be a democracy—and on a recently-broadcast televised MSNBC segment, Joe Scarborough issued an ominous warning: if President Trump secures a second term, he will “imprison” and “execute” any and all political opponents that he can.

"Projection much? Who’s really been imprisoning and executing political opponents? Does the name Ashli Babbitt ring a bell? What about Craig Robertson? Owen Shroyer? Or how about the J6ers? Or, is this a signal of guilt? Has he done something criminal and he’s starting to sweat? Talk about paranoia!" . . .

UPDATE: Obama's false equivalence on Hamas is outrageous — and adds pressure on Israel (nypost.com)  . . ."Pressure is already on Israel to make its temporary cease-fire in exchange for hostages permanent.

"Obama’s obscene comparison reflects both ignorance and bias.

"There can be no possible justification for the beheadings, rapes, burnings, kidnappings and mass murders of more than 1,200 Israeli babies, women, the elderly and others.

"Obama has admitted as such.

"Nor can there be any dispute that these abominations occurred and Hamas leaders have promised to repeat them again and again." . . .

Can Israel's Catastrophe Change the Jewish Worldview?

 American Thinker  . . ."But the pogroms of October 7 were not only the deaths of 1,200 Israelis, but also a blow to the Western liberal thinking of Israelis: their failed experience of reconciliation with radical extremists and religious fanatics, whom part of the Jewish population of Israel considered potential neighbors and partners for peaceful coexistence. 

"Israel is an oasis in the desert, surrounded by barbarians and fanatics who believe in the superiority of Muslims over non-Muslims. The conflict in this region has acquired the features of a religious war. Islamic extremists cannot accept the existence of a non-Islamic (Jewish) state. Therefore, expecting peaceful coexistence between "two states for two peoples" is as meaningless as waiting for Godot, as in the classic theater of the absurd play by Samuel Beckett.

"But is it enough to change the West's worldview?

"The West's desire to democratize the East has led to the flooding of Europe with Arab refugees. Failed attempts to establish democratic regimes in the East have created a threat to democracy in Western countries. 

"The Arab and Muslim population in Europe is growing due to the tens of millions of Muslims who fled there from their countries, which are all independent states.

"These people do not assimilate in Christian countries. They consider Islam the only correct religion. To them, non-Muslims in the new countries are second-class people. Muslims who fought the European colonizers and drove them out of Asia and Africa moved to Europe after the former colonizers and began to colonize European countries themselves. Democrats in Europe and the United States believe that it is possible and necessary to rationalize religious fanatics and involve Muslim populations in the building of Western civilization. They want to rationalize the irrational. " . . .

Israel Vows: The War Against Hamas Will Go On After Hostage Pause (breitbart.com)    . . ."Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, in a statement announcing the deal:

I would like to reiterate: The war is continuing and the war will continue until we achieve all of our goals – Eliminating Hamas, returning all of our hostages and assuring that the day after Hamas, Gaza will no longer threaten Israel, that there will be no other element that supports terrorism, educates its children for terrorism and threatens the State of Israel. With G-d’s help, we will do it and we will succeed – and together we will win.

"Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant added:"

As a result of the decision taken about a month ago to intensify our ground operations, to enter [Gaza] and to increase the pressure on Hamas, there is now a chance to create a plan that will lead to the release of hostages. I view the release of hostages first and foremost as an issue related to values – a moral issue, an issue that points to the [unwritten] agreement between the State, the government and its citizens. All members of the cabinet, all the members of the IDF, ISA, and Mossad, everyone who is working on the issue of the hostages and missing persons – is dedicating all their time, soul and energy to this issue, day and night.

…

At the same time, without continuing [military] pressure, there will be no chance of bringing [home] additional hostages. Therefore, upon my request and that of the defense establishment, the government has included in its decision, the unequivocal demand that immediately after we have exhausted this phase, all operations by the IDF [Israel Defense Forces], ISA [Israel Security Agency] and all the security forces, will continue in full force – first in order to defeat Hamas, and secondly, in order to create the necessary conditions to bring home additional hostages." . . .

JFK: 60 years

"Over the years, I’ve teetered between a lone gunman and a conspiracy.  However, in the last six years I’ve moved steadily towards the conspiracy theory.  Why?  Because of President Trump and the treatment he’s received." Sloan Oliver

 A Plausible Explanation for JFK’s Assassination? - American Thinker 

   . . ." Sure, conspiracies happen. Lincoln was killed as the principal target in a conspiracy.

"The Deep State is collusion. Persons in “permanent government,” a.k.a., the federal bureaucracy, with intelligence and law enforcement agencies as the nexus, act to protect their turf, accrue power, and line their pockets at the America people’s expense. Eisenhower flagged the “military-industrial complex” and Truman warned about the CIA.   

"When Trump came on the scene, the Deep State began shedding its shadowiness. Whether through arrogance or fear or both, Deep Staters proved they existed. As Chuck Schumer famously said, “You take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you.”    

"JFK’s assassination happened 60 years ago today, November 22, in Dallas. Assassination “investigators” agree on very little, other than Kennedy was killed. Why JFK was assassinated and who did it are the stuff of elaborate theories, a veritable grocery store full of them. An entire industry has been created from them. All claim to have solved the 60-year-old whodunit. But most of it is highfalutin conjecture. Facts are stretched. Supposition is often presented as fact. Solving Kennedy’s death is bad for business." . . .

Where were you when Kennedy was shot?   . . ."The JFK assassination has captivated the nation (and the world) for decades.  Everything about it is questionable.  Was there a conspiracy to kill the president or was it a lone, commie kook?  Arguments have been both ways.  However, nothing shouts conspiracy louder than the accused killer (Oswald) conveniently gets killed by a guy who conveniently has terminal cancer; and the official autopsy results (done at Bethesda) are different than what the emergency room doctors (at Parkland Memorial Hospital) testified to." . . .

JFK assassination: 60 years later we know the truth about the real killer  "On Nov. 22, 1963, we lost not only a popular young president, but we also lost our national innocence. We lost our trust in government. Once lost, it has not returned and never will.

"The rifle shots fired at the president’s motorcade changed my own life as I watched TV coverage of my bloodied "friend" Lee Harvey Oswald dragged into the Dallas Police Station. When the Secret Service knocked on my door the morning after the assassination, they came for me as someone identified as a "known associate" of the presumed JFK assassin. 

"My involvement with Lee and Marina Oswald  began in June 1962. I saw them last as they ran to catch the Fort Worth to Dallas bus on Nov. 22, 1962. A year later, my father translated for Marina from Nov. 24 to 28 as the Secret Service probed her knowledge of a conspiracy." . . .  

Lawmakers call for investigation into J6 committee following release of security footage

  Washington Times

The calls for an investigation of the Democratic-led committee began after House Speaker Mike Johnson announced the planned release of more than 40,000 hours of security video footage from the Capitol that day. The footage will be released in batches over the next several months.

 

AfterMath - Home (terrellaftermath.com)

"Republican lawmakers are calling for investigations into a House committee and its members after the release of security footage that captured the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas and Sen. Mike Lee of Utah called for the investigation of the now-defunct United States House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack, which determined that the riot was an attempted coup by then-President Trump. They said the tapes present a much different view of the chaos at the Capitol that day.

" 'The J6 committee was a sham,” Mr. Nehls said on X. “I knew it then. Everyone knows it now. Let’s investigate the investigators.”

"Mr. Lee accused two of the committee’s prominent members, former Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, a Republican, and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, a Democrat, of deliberately hiding the security footage.

" 'Why didn’t Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger ever refer to any of these tapes? Maybe they never looked for them,” Mr. Lee said. “Maybe they never even questioned their own narrative. Maybe they were just too busy selectively leaking the text messages of Republicans they wanted to defeat.

“ 'Given the evidence they apparently suppressed, how much footage (and how many other records) do you think Nancy Pelosi and the J6 committee deliberately lost or destroyed?” . . .

Susan Sarandon’s noxious antisemitism and, finally, a little pushback

"Thankfully, at least one Muslim woman has gloriously talked about the freedom Muslims experience in America. Lately, because of massive amounts of misinformation, I always feel I need to begin my essays about what’s happening in Israel and America with a few facts: . . . 

(barenakedislam.com)

  Andrea Widburg - American Thinker    . . ."With that very incomplete context, let’s look at what Susan Sarandon has been saying:

She joined the crowd in chanting “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” – which is largely regarded as an antisemitic slogan that implies the decimation of Israel – before addressing the group herself.

“There are a lot of people that are afraid, that are afraid of being Jewish at this time, and are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country,” she said.

"Many in the crowd she addressed handed out flyers with the names and addresses of Jewish people and organizations as targets for retaliation.

"Sarandon is an antisemitic ignoramus and a vile, disgusting excuse for a human being. She’s also no longer a box office draw. More than that, all the reliably leftist Jews in Hollywood are becoming scared. Being a Jewish leftist who spouts “Critical Race Theory,” “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion,” “Transgender Theory,” anti-Americanism, and the other fashionable academic tropes is all fun and games until the Gestapo and Brown Shirts come calling…and that’s what America’s leftist Jews are beginning to realize is a real possibility.

"So, Sarandon finally faced a consequence for her long-standing socialist-driven antisemitism:

Oscar winner Susan Sarandon has been dropped by top Hollywood agency UTA after saying frightened Jews are “getting a taste of how it feels to be Muslim in America,” Page Six can reveal.

"I agree with UTA. Anti-Jewish thinking (a European, Christian concept) and antisemitism (a Marxist concept) both have an ugly history of inciting genocidal fury. Sarandon won’t change her very little mind, but her career comeuppance might cause others to reexamine their beliefs." . . .

Melissa Barrera Fired from 'Scream VII' After Accusing Israel of Genocide (breitbart.com)  "Actress has been fired from her role in the upcoming Scream VII after she publicly accused Israel of committing genocide.

"In a post on her Instagram stories, Barrera not only referred to Gaza as a “concentration camp” but also accused Israel of “genocide and ethnic cleansing” in its war against Hamas in retaliation for the horrific October 7 terrorist attack, which claimed 1,400 lives, most of whom were civilians.

“ 'Gaza is currently being treated like a concentration camp,” she wrote. “Cornering everyone together, with nowhere to go, no electricity no water … People have learnt nothing from our histories. And just like our histories, people are still silently watching it all happen. THIS IS GENOCIDE & ETHNIC CLEANSING.”

She should stop depending on MSNBC, Joy Reid and Ali Velshi for news.
