Just who can we trust in this election?

 Donald N. Finley - American Thinker  

"Doesn’t that mean she has to lie about what she truly believes?  Yes it does.  It means she has to hide who she really is.  Do we even know who she is?  Yes we do.  She is the person she was before Joe Biden was forced out of the race."

"Let’s review who we can trust in this election.

"Borders are not just boundaries, they are the law in a sovereign nation.  Everyone knows the Biden-Harris administration has allowed nearly 10 million illegals to enter the country unvetted.  No one knows how many crossed the border uncounted (got-aways), but some estimates exceed another 10 million.  All along, administration officials have been telling us the border is secure.  They have been lying.

"This administration has also been flying migrants from other countries directly into American cities.  That’s what the CBP One app is all about.  They call it a humanitarian parole program, but its aim is to keep the numbers down at the border to avoid the horrible optics.  It also provides Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, which makes them legal immigrants, hands them work permits, and skews the numbers.  It serviced Afghanis after the U.S. evacuation, Ukrainians after the Russian invasion, and was later expanded to citizens of Venezuela, Cuba, Haiti and Nicaragua.  Heard anything lately about migrants from any of those countries?

"And what are the consequences?  One is crime, rampant crime, and much of it violent.  Democrats and the media will say it’s not true, but consider these facts.  The Justice Department just released their National Crime Victimization Survey on Sept. 12.  The survey found violent crime up 37% from 2020 to 2023, rape up 42%, robbery up 63%, and stranger violence up 61%.  Few in the media will cover this." . . .

. . ."Just as the left has tried to hide the truth from the American people about Biden and Harris, they have had to replace those facts with a manufactured narrative about Trump.  Trump’s entire political life has largely been shaped by lies from the left, from the Clinton campaign’s dossier, to Russia collusion, all the way to the ‘Kamalies,’ with every gap between filled by the legacy media." . . . 

Jill Biden's Cosplaying As President Just Got Much Weirder

 Bonchie – RedState

"It's pathetic. This is not what journalism is supposed to be. This is also not what a First Lady is supposed to be doing. Are there no serious reporters left in the mainstream press who will bother to ask what in the heck is going on?"

RealityBites

"The saga of Jill Biden cosplaying as president of the United States just got a lot weirder, and this time the press is involved.

"On Friday, questions arose after she was spotted sitting at the head of the table and leading a cabinet meeting at the White House. That it was the first in over a year only made the situation more perplexing. Joe Biden doesn't meet with his cabinet for that long and when he finally does, his unelected wife takes the lead? Then, later on the same day, it was revealed that her name was being embossed on honorary legislation folders as if she were equal to the president. 

"She wasn't done, though. In what appears to be a very coordinated campaign at this point, MSNBC put out a slobbering segment in which Jill Biden gives "journalist" Peter Alexander an Oval Office tour. The two are also seen discussing the "transfer of power" as if her opinion on such matters is relevant.

"To call all of this odd is an understatement. Jill Biden taking a leading role in multiple aspects of the administration all on the same day is too obvious to count as a coincidence. There's a message being sent here. What exactly that is is up for consideration, but I suspect Joe Biden's relinquishing of the presidential nomination to Kamala Harris has something to do with it. 

"The ride is almost over for his wife. Those Air Force One rides and taxpayer-funded vacations end in January. Perhaps she just wants to make a few memories, inappropriate and head-scratching as they may be. Of course, the other possibility is far worse. Namely, that Joe Biden is so completely unable to fulfill the duties of his office that Jill Biden is having to step in "unofficially" in a much more public fashion." . . .

Jill Biden Chairs Cabinet Meeting. What's Going On? – HotAir   Video ... "Forbes was generous enough to describe the situation as "First Lady Dr. Jill Biden Joins Biden Cabinet Meeting." We have the whole spectacle on video, however, and she did a lot more than "join." Joe Biden spoke (or more correctly read from his queue cards) for all of two minutes and four seconds. Then Dr. Jill took over. I've queued up the video below so you can see for yourself. She was sitting at the head of the table, hitting all of the talking points, and everyone's attention was focused on her. She was running the meeting.". . .

Israel haters weep for Hezbollah terrorists, but Douglas Murray has other thoughts.

 Douglas Murray applauds pager explosion attack against Hezbollah (youtube.com)    "Author Douglas Murray has applauded the pager explosion attack on Hezbollah members which was assumed to have been launched by Israel.

" 'This is the deliberate targeting of Hezbollah terrorists in the most targeted, precise and somewhat personal way imaginable,” Mr Murray told Sky News host Rita Panahi. " 'The people who say that this is indiscriminate seem not to have noticed that if you have a Hezbollah pager device or Hezbollah walkie-talkie on you, the chances are you may well be a member of Hezbollah and Hezbollah is a designated terrorist organisation, and therefore you're just not innocent.”

Video: ‘Idiot’ AOC slammed over ‘untrue’ post about Hezbollah pager attack  "Author and commentator Andrew Klavan slammed “idiot” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez following her latest post commenting on the attack on Hezbollah communication devices in Lebanon.

"Ms Ocasio-Cortez, in a post to X, said the pager attack in Lebanon “clearly and unequivocally violates international humanitarian law and undermines US efforts to prevent a wider conflict”. "She then went on to call for the “full accounting” of the attack to Congress, including an answer from the State Department as to whether any “US assistance went into the development or deployment” of the technology. “ 'It’s a stupid theory, it’s observably untrue,” Mr Klavan told Sky News host James Macpherson."

Israel haters who wept for Gaza civilians now weep for Hezbollah terrorists. "One of the virtues of Israel’s exquisitely targeted attack against Hezbollah terrorists is that it’s finally revealed the truth for all to see: The people who have spent the last months crying about Israel killing civilians cared nothing about the civilians. What made them angry was that Israel was defeating Hamas, an Iranian proxy, so an enemy of both Israel and America. We know this because the same people, rather than congratulating Israel for a targeted attack the likes of which no one has ever seen, are now angry at Israel for killing enemy soldiers, even as they’re completely silent about Hezbollah’s most recent massive rocket barrage against Israeli civilians.

"Here's a good, brief summary of what Israel managed to accomplish:" . . .

Dear @aoc and other useful idiots who only discover IHL if they think it hurts Israel:
No, Israel's attack did not violate international law, including your newfound darling 'AP II Article 7' rules against booby traps (which I bet you never heard of until today).
Here is why:

Democrats, does this give you any concern? Report: Hezbollah Had an 'October 7-Like' Attack in the Works Before It Was Blown to Smithereens – RedState  ..."Reports have since emerged that Hezbollah was planning an "October 7-like" attack on Israel codenamed "Conquer the Galilee." October 7, 2023, was, of course, the day that Hamas terrorists from Gaza conducted a merciless assault on Israel, resulting in the barbarous murders of thousands of Israelis and the kidnappings of hundreds more — many of whom are still being held hostage nearly a year later. 

"Following the latest action by Israel, the IDF revealed what they believe Hezbollah was planning:" . . .

All Israel wants is to live in peace with their families and society. The Arabs around them have nothing to fear from the Jews, but they cannot, and will not leave Israel alone. TD

 

Obama and the pro-Hamas tide in America

 

Broc Smith

The Democrat Party's Antisemitism Went Big With Barack Obama (thefederalist.com)  "Obama’s embrace of antisemites is responsible for the anti-Israel radicalism rampant among Democrats today.

"It goes without saying that if the aforementioned demonstrators were “MAGA Republicans” protesting an Islamic country and harassing Muslim students, legacy media “journalists” would be relentlessly spamming the phone lines and emails of every GOP official in the country asking for condemnation. They will never hold Democrats to the same standard, and their refusal to call out Obama for ignoring the leftist occupation of universities shows it.

"While the media’s inaction isn’t surprising, neither is Obama’s silence. Obama’s decision to remain mum on the issue is representative of his behavior and the individuals encompassing him throughout his life." . . .

This Is the Most Deliciously Devious Part About Israel's Exploding Pager Attacks

 Victoria Taft – PJ Media 

"When you start feeling sorry for these guys, just remember what their Hezbollah buddies did to families, babies, and women on October 7, and then you'll snap right out of it. And Israel literally made them pay for their own deaths." 

 Israel knows they are on their own, given what Democrats have become now. The party of AOC, Tlaib, MSNBC, and Harris has a new love for the Kaffiyeh-clad anarchists in our streets. The same graces Harris gave to Antifa she will provide to these useful idiots. TD

"Now we're learning more details of the attacks, and they're as impressive as they are diabolical. 

"Three thousand beepers exploded this week, killing a bunch of Hezbollah terrorists and some innocents. Iran's ambassador to Lebanon lost an eye in the attack. 

"After that attack, Hezbollah began using walkie-talkies, and they exploded. 

"When the terrorists decided to meet in person in Lebanon Friday, someone bombed the meeting. 

"Israel has not confirmed it carried out the attacks, nor is it likely they will ever lay claim to them, but U.S. intelligence officials who talked to their favorite intelligence mouthpiece, the New York Times, claimed Israel pulled it off. Time will tell what the truth is.

"This operation has obviously been planned for quite some time. Though Israeli intelligence agencies were completely caught off guard by Hezbollah's Iran-backed October 7 attack, they appear to be trying to make up for that huge intelligence debacle. 

"Defense One reports that Hezbollah had a deal with a Taiwan company, Gold Apollo, to supply the Islamic supremacist terror organization with pagers. Someone probably needs to have a little chat with the Taiwan company that sells AR-924 pagers to terrorists, but they told whoever asked that they weren't responsible for the pagers. 

"They pointed the finger of blame at a Hungarian firm called BAC Consulting KFT. This appears to be a shell company run by friendly or Israeli intelligence. Indeed, multiple Israeli cutouts may have been involved in the manufacturing and sales of the devices. 

"The Times reports that Israel "did not tamper with the Hezbollah devices that exploded, defense and intelligence officials say. It manufactured them as part of an elaborate ruse."

"That's right. The shell company sold the rigged pagers manufactured by the good guys. 

"And this is the best part of the story—if you hate Islamo-Nazi terrorists, anyway—Hezbollah paid for its own rigged and exploding pagers." . . .

Elon Musk Predicts Dems Will Import, Legalize Enough Migrants to Ensure 'Permanent One-Party Rule' if Harris Wins 2024 Election

 Jordyn M. (resistthemainstream.com)

"He recently warned about Democrats wanting to scrap first amendment rights in America, following a shocking video of Walz arguing that “there is no guarantee” to “free speech” on so-called “misinformation or hate speech.” "

"Elon Musk does not want Vice President Kamala Harris to become President of the United States.

"The tech mogul has been a vocal critic of Harris and supporter of Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump, citing Democrats’ plot to grant illegal immigrants “a pathway to citizenship” as one of his biggest concerns.

"Musk detailed his latest prediction for what Harris would do if elected on X, warning his followers of the staggering “a one-party rule” possibility.

“ 'My prediction is that if Kamala wins, the Dems will import and legalize enough migrants to ensure a permanent one-party rule that is increasingly socialist (to a confiscatory level) and repressive,” Musk claimed.  He continued: “Everywhere will be California, but worse.”

“The one thing that gives California pause is that people can move to other states. What would happen if all states were ruled like California? Nowhere to move.” . . .
