How Do They Come Up With So Many Stupid Democrats?

 Derek Hunter; Townhall  

"So, it’s not that the party produces idiots, although it certainly is a magnet for them, it’s that it attracts horrible people who are awful to the children, women, animals, plant life and everything else that is not them . . ."

You have to hand it to Democrats, no matter how many times you are certain they can’t do something – be more corrupt, act sleazier, hate the country more, be idiots – they find a way to exceed what anyone thought was possible. In a sick way, it’s an accomplishment – a perverse one, but an accomplishment nonetheless. It’s enough to make you wonder if there is some sort of performance enhancing drug that lowers the bar to the point that you’d need a shove not to clear it." . . .

. . . "In Munich, this intellectual leader of the left was asked a simple question about whether or not the United States would come to the aid of Taiwan if China invaded, as they are desperate to do. This not-ready-for-prime-time-person responded with what could easily be described as an attempt to make Joe Biden look like a genius and Kamala Harris come off like a great orator. 

"AOC answered, “Um...you know...I think that uh...this is...such a, ya know, I think that...this is a um...This is, of course, a, uh, a very longstanding, um, policy of the United States, uh, and, I think, what we are hoping for is that we want to make sure that we never get to that point, and we want to make sure that we are moving in all our economic research and our global positions to avoid any such confrontation and for that question to even arise.”

"Can you believe Jeopardy hasn’t called yet?

"How does a political party produce someone so, um…articulate and special? How does a political party, that same political party, produce a series of “victims” of a child sex predator – who was a proud member of that same political party – who became entangled with that predator not when they were children, but when they were adults? Can’t they even stage a photo-op properly?" . . . More...

Disapproval of Democrats in Congress Ticks Upward—New Poll - Newsweek

Dumbest Democrat Ever Delivers Cringe Worthy Performance In Front Of Congress

Trump didn’t declare defeat in Minneapolis; he switched to a smarter strategy

 Andrea Widburg - American Thinker  "What he did was take a pragmatic look at the current board and adjust the pieces so that he can win the midterm."

"The result of this new policy is that, with detentions now functioning smoothly in Minnesota, the media and other Democrats have lost their most important headlines and their potential for new martyrs." AW

. . . "Significantly, Trump understands that the most powerful force in America today isn’t the government; it’s the media. This is true even though several outlets are in financial trouble and the public despises them all.

"I’ve written before about ordinary Americans’ cognitive dissonance, so I won’t belabor the point. Suffice it to say that, even though Americans know the media is lying and even though the media is losing audience, the combined weight of search engines, AI, and news apps makes sure that only leftist headlines reach the average American.

"Trump doesn’t deny the obvious: The media have won the narrative in Minneapolis. While we know that ICE agents who were hit by cars and threatened by violent men with guns were fully within their rights to shoot to kill, most Americans know what the headlines blare: “Trump’s out-of-control Gestapo killing ordinary nurses and mommies.”

"A clear-eyed Trump recognizes that these headlines have turned the population against ICE’s efforts, even as the public still wants illegal aliens gone.

"Considering all these factors, what’s Trump to do? The one thing he can’t do is double down on ICE enforcement in Minneapolis, which will only dig more deeply the polling hole that he and the Republicans find themselves in on an issue the public actually supports. Moreover, it’s a given that, if Trump pushes harder with ICE, the left’s useful idiots will invariably do something to get killed, and Trump’s signature issue will become even less popular.

"So, instead of going in harder, Trump is going in smarter. He’s appointed Tom Homan, a steady, calm man, to handle the tinderbox, instead of the flashy Kristi Noem. (Even if Noem made the right decisions about how to approach Minneapolis—and I don’t know if she did—the media have so successfully painted her as a showboating, fascist Barbie doll, with too much makeup, too much hair, and clothes that are too tight, that Trump cannot save her.)" . . .

Expelling Sharia-Adherent Muslims is Not Unconstitutional

"As the saying goes, the Constitution is not a suicide pact, and there are several Supreme Court decisions and statutes protecting America from Sharia law."

Ted Noel - American Thinker 

"Prohibition.—No court shall enforce a judgment, decree, or arbitration decision if it relies, in whole or in part, on Shari’a or any foreign law that violates the constitutional rights of any party. It’s not complicated."

"George Mason University Law Professor Ilya Somin has posted a missive declaring that the “Preserving a Sharia-free America Act” is “manifestly unconstitutional.” We all need a deep breath after that last sentence. It was a mouthful. And Professor Somin is dead wrong.

"As Justice Jackson noted in 1949, “The Constitution is not a suicide pact.” His key point in Terminiello v. Chicago was that the Supreme Court had gone too far in removing restraints on rioters who attacked policemen. It was essential to “temper [the Court’s] doctrinaire logic with a little practical wisdom.” “The choice is not between order and liberty. It is between liberty with order and anarchy without either.”

"Justice Jackson was prescient. And he wasn’t just a prophet of the current riots over law enforcement. The presence of doctrinaire Muslims in the US is a direct threat to our existence as a nation of laws. Sharia is the “legal” manifestation of that threat. Students of Islam will point out that “Sharia is not Sharia,” by which they mean there’s not a single, fixed monolithic code of laws—but that’s part of the problem, because it means that Sharia is a theocratic system of laws that depends on the interpretation of the Imam in a specific neighborhood. 

"We see this sort of divergence simply by looking at the news. The Kingdom of Jordan is Islamic, but it is restrained in enforcing religious laws. At the opposite end of the spectrum is Iran, where, at last count, nearly 40,000 people have been executed for the “crime” of protesting against the Islamic tribal barbarians that rule what could be a wealthy and free country. However, once we get past AI’s reticence to list key issues common to all core Sharia interpretations, a few stand out, and they are completely at odds with American law and values.

"The simplest and most direct is the subjugation of women. They are not allowed to choose their own clothes to wear in public. They are not allowed to have a public opinion. And this runs directly contrary to the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote. Of course, should a wife dare to cross one of these lines, her husband is bound to physically correct (beat) her. But this is to be done in a “kindly” way. Right. Domestic violence laws be damned." . . .  More...

Epstein survivor breaks down in tears as she recounts thinking she was 'going to die' . . .

 . . . "while being assaulted on Lolita Express jet while women who recruited her 'laughed' | Daily Mail Online

New photos show former president Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein's
 long-time friend Ghislaine Maxwell on board the billionaire's private jet,
 dubbed the 'Lolita Express', in 2002

"A Jeffrey Epstein survivor broke down in tears as she recounted how she thought she was going to die while being assaulted on the paedophile's private jet. 

Juliette Bryant said the billionaire began 'forcibly touching me in between my legs' within seconds of his 'Lolita Express' taking off. 

Women working for the financier who had recruited the then 20-year-old aspiring model were on board the Boeing 727–100 and laughed as she was attacked, she said. 

In an emotional interview with Sky News, Juliette broke down as she told how she 'just freaked out and I suddenly realised... these people might kill me'. 

'I suddenly realised I had to be nice and friendly as I realised I was in great danger,' she said.

Juliette added: 'He [Epstein] patted the chair next to him... and then I went and sat there. It was such a confusing situation for a young person to be in,' she said, before adding: 'I was really petrified.'     

She first met and was recruited by Epstein in Cape Town in September 2002 when he was touring South Africa with Bill Clinton. 

Within three weeks, she was flown from South Africa's southern coast to New York and thought 'my dreams were all coming true' after he offered to launch her modelling career.
