On April 3rd, Hillary Clinton blames misogyny, FBI, sexism, NRA, Russia for 2016 loss. Will it ever end?

Washington Examiner "Hillary Clinton on Tuesday recited a list of several factors that contributed to her 2016 loss against Donald Trump, and said America is in a "really bad spot" with President Trump in the White House.

" '[E]very day that goes by there’s more evidence and more proof of Russia and fake news and Cambridge Analytica and misogyny and sexism," she said. "I mean it’s hard, it’s very hard."

"She said the "lock her up" chants that Trump led during the election and other protests around her were signs of misogyny.

" 'Some of you probably remember when Kathy Griffin held up the head of Trump," she said. "What you may not remember is they were selling Trump holding up my head at the Republican convention and nobody said a word."

"Clinton also repeated her claim that she would have won her race against Trump if former FBI Director James Comey hadn't said publicly that he had reopened his investigation into her use of a private email server.

" 'But for the letter he wrote on October 28th I would have won," she said.

"She also blamed Russia for trying to influence the election.

" 'You had the Russians stealing the DNC emails and then stealing emails from my campaign," she said. "And on October 7th the CIA director said for the first time that the Russians were interfering in our election."

" 'You know the NRA has spent more money on me than any other candidate," she said. "We'll find out if any of that was Russian money.' "  She says, hoping this remark will go viral and be quoted by anti-Trump sources until it becomes "present truth".

Nasim Aghdam Had Been Interviewed by Police After Father Warned She Might Go to YouTube

"Information came out about the YouTube shooter overnight that will surely make the story disappear. The shooter was an Iranian-born female who held anti-capitalist, animal rights views. She used a pistol, not an AR-15. It also looks like the police may have been able to prevent the shooting." . . .

 Merkel Under Pressure Over Germany’s Imported Stabbing Epidemic

. . . "Germany has witnessed a rise in violent crimes since Chancellor Angela Merkel decided to open the country’s border to migrants, prominently young men from Arab and Muslim countries, in the autumn of 2015.

"Last week, Germany witnessed a string of riots and deadly attacks involving migrant gangs, with the leading German newspaper Bild Zeitung describing the countrywide violence that began last Friday as “bloody weekend.”

"Turkish, Iraqi, and Lebanese criminal gangs waged violent turf wars in the cities of Duisburg and Nordhorn armed with baseball bats, machetes, and knives, local media reported.

"The German Bavarian daily MERKUR reported the police union’s demands amid soaring stabbing attacks:" . . .

The media have themselves to blame

Silvio Canto, Jr.  " 'Fake news" is killing the media's credibility.  According to a Monmouth poll:

Large majorities of the American public believe that traditional media outlets engage in reporting fake news and that outside sources are actively trying to plant fake stories in the mainstream media. 

When it comes to the meaning of "fake news," a majority believe that it involves editorial decisions as well as inaccurate reporting. 

"This is terrible news for the news media services.

"Frankly, the media can only blame themselves, for three reasons:

"First, they gave President Obama a free pass and never challenged a thing he said or did.  After all, what other president would have gotten away with saying he learned about Fast & Furious reading the morning newspaper?  What about all the Obamacare promises?

"Second, the growing dependence on "leaks" has made a lot of front-page stories worthless.  Does anyone, other than people obsessed with hating Trump, believe any of these stories anymore?  Just ask Brian Ross! 

"Third, the attacks on President Trump have backfired.  Just check CNN's ratings over the last year.  Yesterday, Jim Acosta of CNN made a total partisan fool out of himself by yelling questions at the president during the egg hunt party at the White House.

"Maybe news directors need to call a few urgent staff meetings.  It's time for reporters and news people to do a little soul-searching.

"Unfortunately for the media's credibility, too many of us think the media have an agenda rather than an honest desire to report the news!

"Again, they did it to themselves."  Entire article posted here.

CNN's own David Hogg, gun salesman

UPDATE: Enough already: Parkland kids' fifteen minutes of fame is over

Now, as teenagers are wont to do, they've taken their passion too far.  Their idealism, which was shaped and spurred by a tragic event, has turned into vitriolic animosity.  Hogg and his peers are no longer asking for gun control legislation – they want to eradicate the reputation of anyone who offers disagreement, creating a new caste of opinionated untouchables.

Thomas Lifson  . . . "David Hogg is now helping to increase the number of firearms in the hands of Americans, the very opposite of what he says he wants to accomplish. One of the drawbacks of being a young crusader is the inability to predict complex cause-and-effect reactions. Everything seems so simple and clear when you are young and ignorant of human nature and cannot fathom in the least the ways of thinking of people who disagree with you."

David Hogg on Whether Shadow Groups Are Supporting Ingraham Boycott: ‘I Don’t Have Any Shadowy Figures Behind Me’
. . . "Hogg's attempt at a boycott campaign got the attention of Media Matters for America president Angelo Carusone, who has been instrumental in targeting Fox News host Sean Hannity's advertisers. Hogg's tweet prompted Carusone to warn him about the importance of being "careful with advertiser lists unless you really know the source they came from and how they compiled."

"Media Matters was founded by David Brock, an ally of Hillary Clinton, and is partly funded by liberal billionaire George Soros, who donated a $1 million back in 2010 "to hold Fox News accountable for the false and misleading information they so often broadcast." Think Progress editor and founder Judd Legum has also been instrumental in pushing the boycott on Twitter and through multiple articles on his website.

"Hogg then shifted the conversation away from shadowy groups to discuss the negativity aimed at the gun control movement, where he has emerged as a national voice."

The Slammer

California Democrats Invoke Race as They Propose Limits When Police Can Shoot Guns

Saving the Republic

"Here you have a clear example of what happens when there is one party rule in a state. CA legislators are out of control now proposing a bill when police will be allowed to use their guns! Not one of these people has ever experienced the split second life and death situation many police and sheriff deputies face everyday on the street. This is really no surprise to see from the very same people who are systematically legislating the Second Amendment into oblivion in CA. Gun owners are under constant attack, new laws are proposed after every major mass shooting, it’s no wonder these radicals now want to dictate when law enforcement can use their guns." . . .
. . . 

"Race did not play a role in the Sacramento police shooting of Stephon Clark. To compare that shooting with what happened in Parkland is demonstrably false, and deceitful. The Parkland killer didn’t have a weapon on him when he was arrested. He followed the orders by the arresting officer, he did not try to run and it wasn’t dark where he could have had something in his hands that could’ve been mistaken for a gun. These legislators are using race to justify the action which will result in cops getting killed.

"There have already been instances where police were hesitant to draw their weapons over fears of what will happen as a result of firing their weapon. …"

‘Remarkably stupid’: Calif Dems push ‘first of its kind’ legislation restricting when a cop can use his gun  . . . "And somewhere between “when reasonable” and “when necessary” lay the bodies of dead cops who, with added pressure of whether its legal to use their service weapon, hesitate a second too long.

"The co-author of the “first of its kind state law,” Democrat Assemblywoman Shirley Weber, added that the bill is intended to ensure state policy “stresses the sanctity of human life.”
"This coming from those who support the killing of unborn children." . . .

DOJ: Border-Crossers Have 88 Percent Chance of Evading Deportation by Claiming ‘Credible Fear’

Breitbart

"The issue of the country’s loose asylum laws — where foreign nationals can claim that they are fearing for their lives in their native country and be released into the U.S. until their day in court — has sparked debate, as a caravan of 1,500 Central American asylum-seekers are headed for the southern border.

"In 88 percent of cases, foreign nationals seeking asylum in the U.S. evade immediate deportation after claiming credible fear, according to DOJ. Only half of the foreign nationals who evade immediate deportation by claiming credible fear, however, end up filing for asylum status after they are released into the U.S.

"As Attorney General Jeff Sessions has noted, the fact that only half of the asylum-seekers end up seeking asylum once they are in the U.S. “suggests” that their claims of credible fear are not valid and that they were using the country’s loose asylum laws to enter the U.S.

"After former President Obama’s administration acted as a rubber stamp for asylum-seekers looking to permanently stay in the U.S., the number of credible fear cases increased from 5,000 in 2009 to 94,000 in 2016.

"At the border alone, between 2009 and 2016 credible fear claims by border-crossers increased from 3,000 cases to nearly 70,000 cases. Now, the immigration courts have been hampered by a backlog of more than 600,000 immigration cases pending." . . .

YouTube shooter ID’d as woman with apparent vendetta against company. Politicians call for gun control in three...two...one...

Update: This Incident Shows How Heeding Warning Signs of a School Shooter Works Better Than Gun Control  "All of the glaring red flags surrounding the Parkland shooter were ignored.
"Authorities failed to connect the dots through years of bad behavior, incidents on and off campus, as well as reports from concerned citizens that the shooter was displaying worrisome behavior." . . .

- Ismail Aghdam, father of shooting suspect Nasim Aghdam


Fox News  "The woman suspected of shooting three people at YouTube headquarters in San Bruno, Calif. before killing herself was furious with the company because it had stopped paying her for videos she posted on the platform, her father said late Tuesday.

"The police identified the shooter as Nasim Aghdam, 39, of Southern California -- and said they had a run-in with her earlier in the day.

"Ismail Aghdam said he reported his daughter missing on Monday after she did not answer her phone for two days. He said the family received a call from Mountain View police around 2 a.m. Tuesday saying they found Nasim sleeping in a car.

"He said he warned them she might be headed to YouTube because she "hated" the company.

"Mountain View Police spokeswoman Katie Nelson confirmed officers located a woman by the same name asleep in a vehicle asleep in a Mountain View parking lot Tuesday morning." . . .

"The four victims in the shooting were not immediately identified." . . .

"San Bruno investigators initially believed the shooting was motivated by a domestic dispute but later said there was no evidence to suggest she knew the victims or targeted them.". . .

By the way: Facebook bans crucifix image as 'excessively violent'

UPDATED: Mike ‘MyPillow’ Lindell rocks it with proud, pro-Laura Ingraham tweet

. .But Lindell’s one of the good guys — one of the true-blue American types who didn’t allow the storm to sweep away his principles, to kill his free speech and free expression. He’s one who didn’t flee when the battle came to his door

I'm sure the left is busy with internet searches as we speak to come up with any dirt on Mr. Lindell they can find. And when they find some, they will publish it.
 My wife and I each sleep on his pillows and love them, by the way. TD

Washington Times  "Mike Lindell, of
“MyPillow”, inventing and founding company fame, put forth a bold message on his Twitter feed that, in just a few short words, smacked to shame-land the would-be fascists and wanna-be censors of the world who’ve been demanding Laura Ingraham’s head on a Fox News platter.

"Listen up, all you cowardly and wishy-washy boycotting businesses: This is how it’s done.

"Lindellwrote: “I did not take my advertising down from @IngrahamAngle and @FoxNews, nor do I intend to.”

"Bam. What a stand-up guy. What a brave guy, a principled, pro-America guy.

"So very different than the dozen or so weak-kneed advertisers who quaked in their shoes and pulled their Fox News spots just because they were contacted by a bunch of minor-age kids with a petty, petulant point of view — minor-age kids led by David Hogg, resident Fascist-In-Training for the hard left.

"It was Hogg who called for a company boycott of Ingraham’s show simply because she characterized him as whiney for complaining about his failure to get into one of his colleges of choice."

. . . "Several advertisers threw down with Hogg’s side. Among: Hula, Nutrish, TripAdvisor Inc., Nestle SA, Wayfair Inc., Expedia Group Inc., Stitch Fix, Bayer, Ruby Tuesday, Liberty Mutual Insurance, Office Depot, Atlantis Paradise Island resort, Jenny Craig, Johnson & Johnson and MiracleEar."

. . . "But Lindell’s one of the good guys — one of the true-blue American types who didn’t allow the storm to sweep away his principles, to kill his free speech and free expression. He’s one who didn’t flee when the battle came to his door.

"And for that, he stands apart and above. . "

‘My Pillow’ CEO Says He Will Not Be Bullied By Hogg Boycott, Will Stay With Ingraham, Fox  "Because it isn’t really about Hogg or Ingraham per se, it’s about fighting the leftist attempt to censor those with which they disagree."

UPDATE:  I ordered four My Pillows. Maybe you should too . . . "Mark Reilly, managing editor of the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal, promptly reported a scandal involving Lindell.
" 'Mike Lindell, the CEO of Chaska-based MyPillow Inc., has been a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump since before the 2016 election. And he's still a big enough booster to spend Easter Weekend at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort," Reilly reported.
"Wow. And he gave the maximum donation to Trump's campaign.
"And a My Pillow! 
"Will Reilly list all the maximum donors to Hillary? I think they wanted a little more than an Easter egg.

Editorial: Carson's HUD Spurns Obama-Era Radicalism

Weekly Standard

"On Thursday, March 29, Ben Carson found himself in the news again. This time the problem wasn't his purchase of an expensive dining hutch (for which the housing secretary received condign criticism, including from this magazine) or his aim of shortening his agency's garbled mission statement (for which he deserved no criticism at all, in our view).

"This time, rather, Carson has committed a new offense—that of rejecting his predecessors' policies.

" 'The policy shift," explains the New York Times, "detailed in interviews with 20 current and former Department of Housing and Urban Development officials and in internal agency emails, is meant to roll back the Obama administration's attempts to reverse decades of racial, ethnic and income segregation in federally subsidized housing and development projects."

"The implication given by the Times report is that whereas the Obama administration simply wanted to "reverse decades of racial, ethnic and income segregation"—and who wouldn't want to do that?—the nasty ol' Trump administration wants to "roll back" all those efforts. Nothing in the remainder of this 1,200 word story would lead the reader to believe the narrative is any more complicated than that.

" . . . and (3) Carson's HUD chose not to punish Houston city officials for blocking the placement of a mixed-race public housing development near a wealthier, predominantly white neighborhood.

"Readers may draw their own conclusions about the merits or deficiencies of the Times story. In any case, it arises from a commonplace phenomenon that goes something like this: The new administration interprets its mission differently from the previous administration; bureaucrats accustomed to the former way of doing things take their complaints to the New York Times; the paper publishes a story about the new agency's scandalous betrayal of its mission.

"Fair enough, but forgive us if we fail to be outraged." . . .

"Break up the caravan"? Yeah, right.

Mexico Breaks Up Caravan Of Migrants Headed For US Border

. . . "The caravan, which numbers about 1,200, is currently in the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca. Organized by the group Pueblos Sin Fronteras (People Without Borders), it has been trekking north through Mexico with the aim of drawing attention to “migrant rights” and, potentially, applying for asylum in the U.S.

"In a statement released Monday night, the Mexican foreign ministry said 400 of the migrants in the caravan entered Mexico illegally and had already been repatriated. The remaining migrants will be subjected to an “administrative migration procedure,” the government said, though it was unclear how many marchers would be allowed to continue their journey to the U.S. border." . . .

Or have they? 
 Thomas Lifson:  "Mexico claiming it will disband Central American caravan heading toward US border"
"It looks like President Trump's tweets have had an effect on Mexico.  Whether or not you believe that our southern neighbor will follow through, at least they realize they have a P.R. problem and face some serious consequences for aiding and abetting violations of our border.  Joshua Partlow and David Agren, reporting in the Washington Bezos Post, totally buy into the Mexican P.R. effort:" . . .

. . . "President Trump put the Mexican government in box.  The Mexicans realize that Mexico has benefited from NAFTA far more than the U.S., and as they watch Trump slapping tariffs on Chinese steel and aluminum, they see that they are in serious jeopardy.  They may assume that lip service will suffice.  If so, they still don't understand President Trump."

Democrats want them here to vote Democrat, saying these are Americans at heart and will love this country. See if this shows you how much Mexicans love America and if they, with the aid of US leftists, are making California a Mexican colony:

A country without statues is not much of a country

First, these people do not love their country.  So what country do they love?  As I recall, Geronimo did not allow dissent or an opposition party.  They present a false view of the past, or "white man is bad" and "everybody else is a victim."

Geronimo decided to use the smoke as a screen for an escape, and instructed the women to strangle the remaining infants so their cries would not give away their position. If they refused, he declared, he would leave them all to their fates. Geronimo had abandoned women and children three times before. He believed saving his warriors took precedence over the fate of the noncombatants.

 Silvio Canto, Jr.  . . . "My dad would often watch Fox News, and we'd chat about the news segment.  On one occasion, we spoke about taking down statues.  He said statues are like family photos – a reminder of where you came from.  You can't delete them any more than you can erase that family member you are not proud of.  My dad warned me that this movement will eventually divide the country into factions.

"And yes, my father was right.  We need to be cautious about erasing the past.

"The latest news on this front is about Native Americans and the town of Arcata, California, as we see in this Los Angeles Times report:

No other city has taken down a monument to a president for his misdeeds. 

But Arcata is poised to do just that. 

The target is an 8½-foot bronze likeness of William McKinley, who was president at the turn of the last century and stands accused of directing the slaughter of Native peoples in the U.S. and abroad.

"Put a rope around its neck and pull it down," Chris Peters shouted at a recent rally held at the statue, which has adorned the central square for more than a century.

"Lynch McKinley?  All I can say is wow, and who is next?" 

. . . [Geronimo] was a man who prized family life, yet showed no remorse in killing other people's families,' writes Paul Harris of The Guardian.

Stay outa the mud, conservatives!

"Democrats and the mainstream media need David Hogg to stay in the limelight if their anti-Second Amendment agenda is to succeed."

Gonzo Overkill

Fox News kahunas call BS on Hogg's ad boycott and say Ingraham will stay  . . . It was the right move.  Obviously, the adults are back at Fox.  Someone made them come over there.  Someone understands what is at stake with Hogg's kid tantrum, which has since been exploited by sleazy Washington, D.C. Democratic Party-linked smear outfits, such as Media Matters, which aided Hogg in extending it into its bid to shut down the free press.  The kahunas saw through it, roused themselves, and now have spoken.  Look at how badly this had degenerated in this exchange on CNN, as reported in the Daily Wire:

On Saturday, Hogg appeared on CNN where he called Ingraham a bully and said that the only way he would ever appear on her show again is if she apologized to every person she had every hurt "throughout her professional career because of her immaturity and unprofessionalism."

CNN's Ana Cabrera turned the tables on Hogg, informing him that some people think he, in fact, is a bully, to which he responded, "I don't agree with it."

"The Los Angeles Times did some decent digging and found that the advertiser boycott so heralded by the press wasn't really an advertiser boycott that hit Fox News's bottom line.  Most of the advertisers just pulled their ads from the show and shifted them onto other Fox News shows, and within a month's time, after Hogg is old stale news, they may be back.  Ingraham, meanwhile, will return from her vacation and resume broadcasting as normal." . . .
