The Ladies Of The View Diss Pence’s Faith In God – This Is Disgusting

Clash Daily 

"As obnoxious a partisan hack as Joy Behar is, it seems to me that she is no longer the ‘stupid’ one on this panel. That honor now goes to Sunny Hostin who brought the entire subject up.

"That said, Behar isn’t off the hook here.

"She says that hearing from Jesus is a sign of mental illness. She just doesn’t understand what it is that Evangelical Christians actually believe.

"Behar, who was raised Catholic seems to have no real comprehension of faith of any sort. Odd since she’s so often defending Muslims. She says that she didn’t read the Bible but no longer believes in the truths contained there. She doesn’t pray, she doesn’t believe in an afterlife. She got married in a church. She baptized her daughter — just in case. She says that she was ‘brainwashed’. Honey, you have to first have a thing in order for it to be ‘washed’.

"The harpies on The View pushed the same Mike-Pence-is-a-bigot line that is oft-touted in the Media (D).

"Mike Pence has not supported electro-shock therapy for gays, no matter how many memes say that he does.

"Here’s a thorough article covering that."

Florida school shooting suspect was ex-student who was flagged as threat

Miami Herald

. . . "Cruz’s Instagram page, identified by friends as his but which has since been removed from the popular site, underscored his love of weapons.

"In the images, he sported dark-colored bandanas over his face, beanies and hats over his hair. In one post, he wielded knives between his fingers as though they were a claw. In another, he showed off a small black handgun.

"One post on his Instagram was for an online ad for a Mossberg Maverick 88 slug shotgun. Another post showed the definition of “Alluh Akbar” – an Arabic praising God that is sometimes used by radical Muslim terrorists before attacks. Federal authorities, however, said Wednesday that they did not believe the shooting was connected to terrorism." . . .

Anatomy of a Coup

Ann Coulter  "Every place you look in Robert Mueller's investigation, the same names keep popping up: FBI agent Peter Strzok and sleazy, foreign private eye -- or "British intelligence agent" -- Christopher Steele. 

"So it's rather important that they both are Trump-hating fanatics, and one was being paid by Trump's political opponent in a presidential campaign.

"Steele is the author of the preposterous dossier that sparked the special counsel investigation, and Strzok is the FBI agent involved at every crucial turn of both the Trump and Hillary investigations.

"As we found out from the House Intelligence memo, Steele told Department of Justice official Bruce Ohr that he "was desperate that Donald Trump not get elected and was passionate about him not being president." (Ohr's wife worked for Fusion GPS, and, like Steele, was being paid by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee.)

"In the hands of Trump-obsessive Peter Strzok -- he of the estrogen-dripping texts to his Trump-hating FBI lawyer mistress -- the dossier was used to obtain a warrant under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act against Trump's alleged "foreign policy adviser," Carter Page.

"The FISA warrant against Page constitutes the last crumbling piece of the "Russia collusion" story.

"Strzok was the person who instigated the Russia investigation against Trump back in July 2016. He was the lead agent on the investigation into whether Hillary, as secretary of state, sent classified information on her private email account. (Conclusion: She had -- but it wasn't any of the FBI's business!) He volunteered for the Mueller investigation and remained there, right up until his Trump-hating texts were discovered by the inspector general of the FBI. (He was also, one surmises, the authority for many of the media's lurid, anonymously sourced claims about how the investigation was proceeding.)

"Most strangely, Strzok was the FBI agent who asked Trump's national security adviser, Michael Flynn, about his phone call with the Russian ambassador, Sergey Kislyak. " . . .

2006: Twenty-one North Korean cheerleaders imprisoned. Wait till you hear why!

Weasel Zippers: Instead of fawning over the North Koreans, perhaps media should remember this story. Their crime? Talking about what they saw in South Korea.

Taipei Times  "Twenty-one members of North Korean cheering squads who traveled to South Korea for international sports events are being held in a prison camp for talking about what they saw in the South, a news report said yesterday.

"Citing a North Korean man who recently fled to China, South Korea's Chosun Ilbo newspaper said the 21 young women had been detained about last November in the same prison camp where the man had been held.

"South Korea's National Intelligence Service didn't immediately confirm or deny the report.

"In 2002, Pyongyang sent hundreds of female cheerleaders to the Asian Games in South Korea's Busan, where their tightly synchronized routines drew worldwide attention. The North sent similar cheering squads to South Korea in 2003 and last year.

"The defector, whose real name wasn't given, said the female cheering squad apparently violated a pledge not to speak about what they saw in South Korea, the Chosun Ilbo reported.

"Citing another unnamed defector, the newspaper said the cheerleaders had pledged before going to South Korea that they would treat the country as "enemy territory" and never speak about what they saw there, accepting punishment if they broke the promise.

"Pyongyang insists it doesn't abuse human rights, but it has long been accused of holding political prisoners in camps under life-threatening conditions. It is believed to hold between 150,000 and 200,000 political prisoners, the US State Department said."

#MeToo is ruining the dating scene   "I genuinely feel for the single crowd out there trying to date through the #MeToo madness. Because is a date with someone who may misinterpret your flirtatiousness as rape culture worth potentially tanking your career and reputation?

"This brave new world where day after regret is conflated with sexual misconduct, rape, and harassment, singles are increasingly confused about where the line of acceptable behavior begins. And with good reason.

. . . "We need to start pointing out to them that they are, in fact, children playing at being brave, and not very well at that. We need to make them at least as embarrassed to act out in public as a conservative in liberal circles. Otherwise, they continue thinking that everyone admires their “bravery” and posturing.

Gay Olympian Who Insulted Mike Pence Wishes People Would Stop Associating Him With Pence

Too late; Rippon has already made it about Pence with his self-righteous virtue-signalling

Legal Insurrection

"Gay figure skater Adam Rippon has repeatedly used his time in the spotlight at the Winter Olympics to insult Vice President Mike Pence. Now he is concerned that people are paying more attention to his thoughts on Pence than his skating.

"It all began earlier this month when he falsely accused Pence of advocating for gay conversion therapy. USA Today reported:

Openly gay figure skater Adam Rippon declined chance to speak with Vice President Pence

Vice President Pence is set to arrive here soon to lead the official U.S. delegation to the 2018 Winter Olympic opening ceremony, a delegation that is making a strong political statement against North Korea’s oppressive regime by including the father of Otto Warmbier, the student who died not long after being held in captivity in North Korea.

But on the afternoon on Jan. 17, Pence had another focus: He was so concerned about the criticism he received from U.S. Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon that his staff went to the extraordinary length of asking the U.S. Olympic Committee to set up a conversation between the two – an offer Rippon turned down.

According to two people with knowledge of the situation who were not authorized to speak publicly about it, a member of Pence’s staff requested the conversation with the openly gay Rippon after reading the skater’s derogatory remarks about him in a USA TODAY Sports story that had been published online just an hour earlier.

Rippon, the two people said, declined the invitation…

“You mean Mike Pence, the same Mike Pence that funded gay conversion therapy? I’m not buying it,” Rippon said.

"Then he posed on Instagram with another gay Olympian named Gus Kenworthy. Their caption ended with the line: “Eat your heart out, Pence.' ” . . .

The Sickening Celebration of North Korea

MRC  "Every two years, Americans unite around the television to root for U.S. athletes and their dreams of gold medals come true. Unless you’re a journalist. Then the Olympics are a time to root against your country and her president on the world stage.

"At the opening ceremonies in Pyeongchang, South Korea, organizers strangely seated Vice President Mike Pence just a few feet from Kim Yo-jong, the sister of North Korea’s communist dictator Kim Jong-un. To American reporters who hate Trump, a star was born. Just the summaries on Twitter were enough to make you throw your phone across the room.

"Start with the wire services. The Associated Press gushed: “The trip by Kim Yo-jong is the latest move in an extraordinary show of Olympic diplomacy with Seoul that could prove to be a major challenge to the Trump administration's hard-line Korea policies.” Reuters echoed: “North Korea has emerged as the early favorite to grab one of the Winter Olympics’ most important medals: the diplomatic gold.”

"Could the North Koreans be any happier at the idiocy of the Western media?

"The newspapers also claimed Mike Pence lost to the woman who serves as the North Korean deputy director of propaganda. The New York Times headline was “Kim Jong-un’s Sister Turns on the Charm, Taking Pence’s Spotlight.” They turned to Asian history professor Alexis Dudden for the slam dunk: “The fact that he and Mrs. Pence didn’t stand when the unified [Korean] team came in was a new low in a bullying type of American diplomacy.”

"The Washington Post front page on Sunday declared they had found the “Ivanka Trump of North Korea.” She “has enraptured people in looks-obsessed South Korea with her sphinxlike smile and low-key beauty.” The story inside added her attendance at the Olympics was “a signal that North Korea is not this crazy, weird former Cold War state -- but it too has young women that are capable and are the future leadership.’” . . .

NKorean Defector: South Koreans 'Hate Kim Yo Jong . . . " Ji Seong Ho told The Daily Caller that South Koreans are not fans of Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, despite the media's fawning over her.
" 'Yo Jong's grandfather, Kim Il Sung, is a war criminal, and her father, Kim Jong Il, killed three million people by starvation," Ji said. "Kim Jong Un is responsible for human rights violations and assassination of his own half-brother.
" 'The Kim family is taking hostage of the North Korean people and threatening the world with its nuclear weapons. Therefore, South Korean people hate Kim Yo Jong and her visit." . . .

WashPost Reporter Suggests Stealth Hillary '2020 Comeback'

Newsbusters  "Shhhh! Hillary Clinton is stealthily running again in 2020. Spread it around very very quietly and be sure you only talk about the 2018 midterm elections.

"Washington Post reporter Robert Costa is sending the not so subtle signal that Hillary Clinton will be back again in 2020. However, since she has to do it on the sly, Costa portrays her as semi-secretly helping in select 2018 midterm campaigns. His focus is on 2018 but he reveals enough to let us know that it is really all about 2020 in Hillary Clinton, a favorite GOP foil, plans discreet 2018 strategy:

There was a long line for selfies with Hillary Clinton last week at a Georgetown soiree for Lanny Davis, a Clinton loyalist whose latest book blames former FBI director James B. Comey for her 2016 presidential defeat.

Clinton devotees — waiting patiently within earshot — speculated about her future. Maybe, one asked, she’d leave political winter behind and become President Trump’s foil? Another talked up a 2020 comeback.

Clinton smiled, but did not respond.

Intel Officials: U.S. Shouldn’t Fall for North Korea’s Olympic Charm Offensive

Well, CNN buys it all.

 Free Beacon  

"DIA Director: Pyongyang's 'strategic calculus has not changed and we should not be misled' "

"Americans should not be deceived by North Korea's charm offensive at the 2018 Winter Olympics as Kim Jong Un remains intent on acquiring nuclear weapons capable of striking the United States, the nation's top spies warned Tuesday.

"In a rare open-door hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee, Defense Intelligence Agency Director Robert Ashley cautioned that Kim's "strategic calculus has not changed and we should not be mislead by the events that are taking place around the Olympics."

"The dictatorial regime has received a bevy of positive media coverage in recent days following an appearance at the games by Kim's sister, Kim Yo Jong. Several news reports published over the weekend hailed her visit to South Korea as a "diplomatic win" over U.S. Vice President Mike Pence as the regime released statements calling for reconciliation with South Korea.

"Intelligence officials said the United States needs to view North Korea's participation in the event for what it is: a propaganda campaign by the isolated nation to use the Olympics as a platform to present a reformed image." . . .

Media Bias: Hatred Of Trump Brings Disgraceful Fawning Over Kim Jong-un's Sister At Winter Olympics  
"Media Bias: Of all the many recent examples of glaring media bias, none stands out so much as the rank politicization by the U.S. media of the South Korean Winter Olympics. What should be a happy, come-together moment for all of America rooting for its athletes, instead became a hate-Trump, #Resistance moment for the far-left media.

"The trump-hatred has metastasized so far that today many journalists have completely abandoned any pretense of fairness and objectivity in their coverage of the world, so long as what they do makes Donald Trump and his administration look bad, stupid or ridiculous.
"Sorry, but fawning over the evil representatives of a country we are still technically at war with is really too much.

Re-'Imagine'-ing the secretly bloody peace song of the Olympic Games

Stephen McGhee  . . . "If we consider Lennon's vision with any level of seriousness, we will find that the concept of no possessions is synonymous with hell.  This is why he had to use trickery to draw us in.

"In truth, you don't have to be a dreamer to know what life without possessions would be like.  You just have to know a little history.  As brilliant as Lennon was (see "Ticket to Ride" and dozens more), he wasn't the first to imagine no possessions.  Josef Stalin and Mao Tse-Tung, to name just two, imagined it decades before him, and the combined result of their imagination was the murder of 100 million souls in peacetime and the enslavement of more than a billion people.  Did Lennon not know the history of these butchers?

"While we're on the subject, are the members of the Olympic Committee also ignorant of recent world history and current events?  They must be – otherwise, they wouldn't have missed the irony of South Korean K-Pop singers fervently pleading for a life without religion or possessions when that paradise is only a short walk away – across the DMZ.

"Imagine that."
