Kamala Harris disgraces herself comparing ICE to KKK

Thomas Lifson  . . . "By persisting with her comparison, Harris identified ICE as racist, apparently because the current majority of border incursions are by people with racial origins in Central America.

"Keep in mind that Harris’s previous job was attorney general of California, the highest law enforcement position in that state. Now, she demonizes law enforcement officials lawfully carrying out their duties as “parallel” with the most notorious domestic terrorism organization in the history of the United States, one, incidentally, that supported her political party from its inception during Reconstruction. This is nothing less than seeking to delegitimize law enforcement in the eyes of the public.

"It is worth noting that Harris hid behind citing the “perceptions” of nameless individuals, maintaining deniability for the views she tried to trap Vitello into somehow endorsing or not denying." . . .

"It will cost you 4 minutes and 22 seconds of your life to watch the exchange below, assuming that your anger does not cause you to close the video:

"She has provided sound bites that will be used against her if she ever runs for the presidency. If the voting public has been so radicalized that they select her as POTUS, the Democrats will get their influx of poor future voters who will keep them in power for the foreseeable future."

Could Kamala Harris be a nice person who only plays a mean, scornful woman on TV?

Naaah. What you see is what you get. And thanks to California we got her.

Dem Sen. Kamala Harris Compares ICE To The KKK…  . . . " 'There’s no question that we’ve got to critically reexamine ICE and its role, and the way that it is being administered, and the work it is doing. And we need to probably think about starting from scratch," she told NBC's "Meet the Press."
"Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel responded to Harris's comments.
" 'Kamala Harris is trying to launch her 2020 campaign off of comparing ICE officers to the KKK, and it's absolutely disgusting," McDaniel wrote in a tweet." . . .

Kamala Harris Compares ICE To KKK, Suggests They're Terrorists. She Gets Destroyed. . . . "Harris has a history of using hearings to grandstand and lie for political purposes, which she did during the confirmation hearings of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

"In September, Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro wrote that Harris "attempted to grab the 2020 Democratic presidential limelight by launching into an attack on Judge Brett Kavanaugh ... essentially accus[ing] Kavanaugh of stonewalling on whether he had spoken with President Trump’s law firm about the Robert Mueller investigation."

"Kavanaugh correctly said he didn’t know what she was talking about, and also said he didn’t know every lawyer at Kasowitz Benson Torres — a law firm with nearly 300 attorneys. That didn’t stop Harris, who grandstanded for nearly 10 minutes, to the wild applause of the media," Shapiro continued. "There’s only one problem: Harris had no evidence whatsoever that Kavanaugh had spoken with anyone at Kasowitz. And, in fact, Kasowitz stated today that Kavanaugh had not spoken with anyone at his law firm about Mueller."

Rush Limbaugh wonders what it is like to live with someone like this . . . "And it’s not just ICE. These are the same people, Black Lives Matter, the cops are guilty of this or that. There is an all-out assault on the vestiges of law and order on the premise that law and order is only for the benefit of white males, the patriarchy. And women who sign up with ’em, i.e., marry them, women who sell out to the patriarchy, white women and white men, predominantly white Christians, especially if they’re Irish. You know how the Irish and cops are, ha-ha-ha, then you wink, nod." . . .

Harris took part in doing to Admiral Rogers what she did to Judge Kavanaugh  "If you’re not familiar with Senator Kamala Harris, think Maxine Waters about 20 years ago. The junior senator from California supports Black Lives Matter, and she’s as arrogant and entitled as her mentors Barack and Michelle Obama. The rabid Trump-hater was on Capitol  Hill for the Intel hearings, where she totally disrespected Admiral Mike Rogers when he wouldn’t say President Donald Trump had done anything wrong."
. . . "The day before Harris did the exact same thing to General John Kelly, and conservative radio host Mark Levin weighed in. “Mark Levin opened the second hour of his show Tuesday night discussing California’s ‘pathetic’ Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris. Levin took particular issue with the ‘disrespect’ shown by Harris in a hearing with DHS secretary, and decorated veteran, Gen. John Kelly,” reports Conservative Review.

"Levin described Harris as a “know-nothing, pathetic, left-wing kook from California who they’re now promoting as another presidential candidate.” He said, “So you have to be a street disorganizer. Is that where we’re going now in this country? She is a disgrace. She is pathetic.”

"Mark Levin is right. How can one political party have so many nutjobs, idiots, and arrogant asses? They have no message, they have no answers, and they offer nothing to the American people." . . . 

Eye-Opening Ground Report Video From Inside Migrant Caravan Shows Truth of Motivation and Intent…

The Last Refuge  "Excellent reporting from Ami Horowitz (Daily Wire) who traveled to Mexico to find out the real reason why there is a caravan of migrants on its way to the United States’ border with its southern neighbor.  Within the video report you can get an understanding of who is inside the group (95% young males); and why they are making the journey.

"Horowitz actually embeds with the migrants to ask questions and understand how it is logistically possible for tens-of-thousands of people to travel, eat and sleep over such a great distance.  What he discovers is the network of facilitating agencies who are spending tens-of-millions to challenge U.S. sovereignty and overwhelm our immigration laws."

Elections late voting always favors Democrats 2

Bookworm Room

Why Democrats Would Dare to Steal Elections in Plain Sight   "The brazenness of the theft is astounding. Democrat election officials in Arizona and Florida, not finding the will of the people to their liking, are manufacturing a will of the people of their own. In Florida, they’re miraculously finding ballots -- overwhelmingly votes for Democrats, of course -- that were somehow inexplicably overlooked on election day. In Arizona, the Republican Party has accused Maricopa County Recorder Adrian Fontes of “premeditated destruction of evidence” leading to “voting irregularities.”

"The Democrats are determined to overturn the Republicans’ gain last Tuesday of two Senate seats, and are in the process of stealing those seats in plain sight.

"The theft of elections, even defying court orders to stop while the whole world is watching, is a new low in American politics, and testifies to the Left’s overriding lust for power. The Democrats have never recovered their equilibrium after losing to Donald Trump in 2016, and now appear to be willing to stop at nothing -- absolutely nothing -- to neutralize Trump and regain their hegemony.

"But there is more to this open theft than just that. The shamelessness and unapologetic audacity of this election fraud is no accident. The Democrats in Arizona and Florida and their allies in the establishment media piously intone that “all votes must be counted” as this fraud unfolds before our eyes, but they’re neither stupid nor naïve. It is much more likely that their very brazenness is not a bug, but a feature." . . .

Legal Insurrection

Fury at Broward, Palm Beach, for making rest of state look like 'laughing stock'

Fox News "Fort Lauderdale, Fla. – As Broward and Palm Beach counties drag the rest of Florida down with them, drowning in a sea of lawsuits and ballot problems, the rest of the state is furious and fed up that their self-inflicted image as an electoral basket case has once again been enforced.
"The large number of problems with mail-in ballots, voters who voted not being counted and voters who didn't vote being counted, ballots with wrong or missing information, refusing to disclose how many ballots were left uncounted after the deadline, possible felons and dead people voting, and the never-ending ‘discovery’ of more ballots after supposedly the election results have been tabulated and reported prove that either the SOE (Broward County Supervisor of Elections Office) is the most incompetent public agency in America or the most corrupt,” prominent Florida attorney Cathy Lerman told Fox News. ‘I believe it is the latter.”
"She’s not alone.
"For the sixth day in a row, protesters have been camped outside of the Broward County recount center in Lauderhill, Fla. They’ve shouted into bullhorns, marched around and carried homemade signs that read “stop the steal” and “I trust (Michael) Avenatti more than Brenda (Snipes)!” Snipes is the embattled Broward County election supervisor who has been under intense scrutiny for her handling of Broward’s election.
“Broward’s always a nightmare and they never learn,” Florida resident Robyn White told Fox News on Tuesday.  “They are the country’s punching bag and a laughing stock.' ” . . .

The eerie capitulation of South Park

Don Surber  "A dozen years after turning him into ManBearPig, "South Park" formally apologized for mocking Al Gore's obsession with global warming. I sense something larger at play here.
"Two years ago, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg scoffed at the idea that posts on his platform gave Donald John Trump the presidency, describing it as a “pretty crazy idea,” according to The Guardian.
"He said, “Voters make decisions based on their lived experience. There is a profound lack of empathy in asserting that the only reason someone could have voted the way they did is because they saw fake news.”
"A day later, he began walking that statement back. Within 10 days, he set up a Facebook censor board dominated by liberals.
"Twitter already is in lock-step. YouTube (owned by Google, a subsidiary of a conglomerate based in Red China) started de-monetizing conservatives. Private enterprise in American media is looking more communist by the hour.
"In May, ABC canceled its most popular sitcom over a tweet mocking Valerie Jarrett's looks.
"In June, TBS broadcast a taped and scripted monologue in which its hostess called Ivanka Trump the C-word.
"In July, Jimmy Fallon apologized for having President Trump on and humanizing him. Fallon said, “I’m sorry. I don’t want to make anyone angry — I never do and I never will. It’s all in the fun of the show. I made a mistake. I’m sorry if I made anyone mad. And, looking back, I would do it differently.”
"Now "South Park" capitulates." 
"Someone has gotten to these people. Perhaps after the election, Democrats reminded Zuckerberg and others that someday when Democrats return to power they will not be in a forgiving mood.
"Businesses and executives who try to work with the president are placed on notice. Kanye West's sudden change of heart did not surprise me. Working with the president of the United States is high treason.
"Democrats have sentenced us to live in a cold, humorless world in which you conform or die. And you must conform to an ever-changing normal. Feminists must accept men in drag as women. The proper term for vagina now is front hole.
"So in calling Ivanka the C-word, Samantha Bee may yet be punished because she failed to call her a Front Hole.
"No one is safe from this mob."

Home Security Cameras Are Now Solving Crimes In Baltimore

Hot Air

"Well, it’s happening in more places than just Baltimore, but they probably need the help more than most cities. The subject at hand is the trend of police departments solving crimes in greater numbers because of the increasing number of home and business owners who have external security cameras monitoring their property… and the street beyond. As this report from CBS Baltimore indicates, some cases which might otherwise have gone cold wound up being solved in short order.

. . . 

"Well… how about this? Is this okay? Are cameras installed by private citizens on their own property who then turn over video footage to the police something you can finally be comfortable with and give us a better chance of solving crimes? Or was this just unfair to the killer of Timothy Moriconi? Perhaps the cops should have been denied the video and left to sniff around the curb hoping the shooter left a trail of breadcrumbs.

"If we get to the point where external home security cameras are so ubiquitous entire cities and towns are almost completely covered, criminals will eventually get the message. It’s certainly a cheaper solution than trying to afford a cop on every street corner in the country."

GOP to Dems: Here, Take Our Wallet, Too!

We called the Brennan Center for Justice, and they assured us that voter fraud doesn't exist. I can prove I called -- I'll show you my phone records! We're not going to send our reporters on a snipe hunt. Oh, and we also got an interesting brochure on voter suppression, such as the Nazi-inspired idea that voters should know how to spell their own names. That's what we get from our crackerjack media. Journalists' phones should be taken away, so they'd be forced to do actual reporting. 

Townhall

 Ann Coulter  "Election recounts would be more plausible if Democrats occasionally let the Republican win. But they don’t. Ballots miraculously discovered days and weeks after the election — in the back seat of a car, after helpful “corrections” to the ballots by election supervisors, etc. — invariably result in a surprise win for the Democrat.
"Voters are just supposed to accept that, unless Republicans win an election by an insuperable margin, the Democrats will steal it.

"And the thieving is cheered on by our media. Whenever President Trump has the effrontery to mention that GOP victories are being stolen by corrupt Democratic officials, the media snippily note that his claim is “UNSUBSTANTIATED.”

"Thus, for example, in the first 60 seconds of CNN’s “Erin Burnett OutFront” on Monday, Burnett said:

— “(The email from Trump headquarters) without providing any evidence … warns that, quote, corrupt Democrats are trying to, quote, steal election victories in Florida. …— “It’s a baseless claim that President Trump has been pushing for days. …— “(Gov. Rick) Scott (is) talking about rampant fraud without providing any evidence. …— “Now, ‘steal an election,’ ‘committing fraud’ are big claims to make without having evidence.”Hey! I have an idea! Why doesn’t CNN rustle up some reporters to go and investigate the biggest story of the year?

"No, the burden is on random Republicans — who have jobs other than “reporting the news” — to produce bulletproof evidence of voter fraud. Otherwise, it’s just a wacky coincidence that these “recounts” always result in mysterious new votes for Democrats.
"If a freelance investigative reporter like James O’Keefe actually does produce the evidence that our media are too lazy and biased to get for themselves, they sneer that O’Keefe can’t be trusted. He’s not a real reporter!
"What a real reporter does is call up some left-wing outfit, get a quote, and peremptorily announce that there has never been an illegal ballot cast in any election, ever." . . .

CNN's Jim Acosta would be the darling of Hollywood

Picture Acosta hosting a celebrity awards night.

American Thinker

Jim Acosta’s misbehavior didn’t start last week  "Even Bob Woodward – in many ways the dean of DC journalists -- is appalled at the lawsuit filed by CNN to regain the White House hard pass of Jim Acosta, revoked in the wake of his outrageous behavior at a presidential press conference a week ago. Joe Concha in The Hill:

Watergate reporting icon Bob Woodward argued that the remedy to President Trump’s decision to revoke Jim Acosta’s White House press credentials isn’t a lawsuit, “it’s more serious reporting about what he’s doing.” . . .

. . . "If the media unite to defend Acosta and implicitly endorse this kind of behavior, they are opening Pandora’a Box. Their own credibility will decline, and precedents are being set for dealing with future Democrat office holders."

Gerard Butler Lost His House In California Wildfires But Some Leftists Say They Don’t Feel Sorry For Him  It's the Hollywood Blacklist again.

. . . "But his tweet, which thanked first responders for doing the best they could to save his home and for evacuating his neighborhood, wasn’t met with the typical outpouring of support seen for celebrity victims of national tragedies. Instead, leftists and anti-Semites responded to Butler’s tweet with a barrage of hate, all because the actor has given money to support the Israeli Defense Forces.

"Many called Butler’s misfortune “karma,” and mocked the actor with claims that he was merely experiencing what Palestinians experience every day.

Here's Fox News' Tucker Carlson's full statement about the incident where a man called Carlson's daughter a "whore".

• After the celebrity attorney Michael Avenatti accused Fox News host Tucker Carlson of assaulting a "gay Latino immigrant," Carlson told Business Insider he never assaulted the man.
• Carlson said the man stopped his daughter when she was on her way back from the restroom and asked her if she was sitting with the Fox News host.
• When his daughter responded, "That's my dad," Carlson said the man asked her, "Are you Tucker's whore?" He also allegedly called her a "f---ing c---."
• "I did not assault this man, and neither did my son," Carlson said.
• In a video Avenatti included in his tweet claiming Carlson "assaulted" the man, Carlson appears to be telling another man to "get the f--- out of here" while others seem to be trying to get Carlson and others in the room to calm down.
• The video does not appear to show Carlson physically assaulting anyone.

However, Carlson's son could be said to have assaulted the man in much the same way 

that fast food worker did when he stole a customer's MAGA cap.

"My daughter returned to the table in tears. She soon left the table and the club. My son, who is also a student, went into the bar to confront the man. I followed. My son asked the man if he'd called his sister a 'whore' and a 'cunt.' The man admitted he had, and again become profane. My son threw a glass of red wine in the man's face and told him to leave the bar, which he soon did.

Man who obscenely harassed Tucker Carlson’s teen daughter was a board member at ‘Women’s Initiative’ health group  . . . "I have seen enough corruption and hypocrisy to make me suspicious of the motives of every male, especially a showboater who proclaims his love of women’s causes.

"So, it comes as only a slight surprise to learn that the man who allegedly publicly harangued Ticker Carlson’s teen-aged daughter as a “whore” and a “f**king c**t” at the Farmington Country Club in Charlottesville, Virginia served on the Board of Directors of a group that calls itself “The Women’s Initiative.” The group proclaims its mission as “empowering women in times of challenge and change,” which is vaguely feminist, but which could encompass almost anything. A look at its current offerings reveals a lot new agey stuff like yoga classes, including some pandering to progressive identity politics.

"His lawyer, Michael Avenatti, may want to break his promise to see Tucker in Court."

Brenda Snipes: Florida’s Shame, and Ours

National Review

It’s time to hold Broward County elections supervisor Brenda Snipes accountable

Conspiracy theories are bad for civic life. So are conspiracies

"I wonder if there is one mentally normal adult walking these fruited plains — even the most craven, abject, brain-dead partisan Democrat — who believes that what has been going on in Broward County, Fla., is anything other than a brazen attempt to reverse the Republican victories in the state’s Senate, gubernatorial, and (not to be overlooked) agriculture commissioner’s races. I cannot imagine that there is, but it is really quite something to see partisan Democrats — the same people who pretend to believe that the 2016 presidential election was invalid because Boris and Natasha posted something on Facebook — watch not only utterly contented but with joy in their hearts as the rolling crime wave that is Broward County elections supervisor Brenda Snipes and her co-conspirators try to actually steal an election or three.

"Boxes of ballots magically showing up in the trunks of rental cars in the Fort Lauderdale airport — cars last rented by Democratic operatives? What is this, a Coen Brothers movie? At least Saddam Hussein had the good taste to be amusing when he was stuffing the ballot boxes. That voting fraud that our Democratic friends insist never happens happens quite a lot under Snipes’s watch." . . .




Broward Election Supervisor Will Likely Be Forced Out of Office
. . . "Snipes, who has twice been found guilty of violating election law in the past two years alone, has come under scrutiny in the wake of the midterm elections for refusing to disclose the number of absentee ballots received by her office and for contaminating some 200 valid provisional ballots by mixing in 22 rejected ballots.

“ 'This is not just the most troubled elections office in the state, it’s the most troubled elections office in the nation,” said Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, who has argued Snipes should be removed from office immediately after the ongoing recounts in the Senate and gubernatorial races are complete.

“ 'She has shown she’s incapable of conducting a large and important election in a way that inspires public confidence and trust,” Rubio said. “She’s been found to have destroyed ballots, in violation of the law. Opened absentee ballots early, in violation of the law. Misprinted ballots that have gone out.”'  . . .

Fear The Voting Dead – End Stolen Elections Like Florida Through Voter ID

"Enough is enough. Election after election boxes of Democrat ballots show up in counties run by Democrat election supervisors to benefit Democrat candidates who, once they steal their opponent’s election night victory, will join the chorus warning of Russian interference in our elections. Last time I checked, there were no Russian election officials in Palm Beach or Broward counties in Florida.

"Democrats have long pushed for voting ease at the expense of voting integrity, pushing measures from voting by mail, to Motor Voter laws, to same-day registration while opposing voter ID laws which requires people to show up on election day with proof they are who they say they are. They claim Voter ID laws are designed to disenfranchise voters. So does the sudden appearance of mystery ballots days, even weeks, after elections without a documented chain of custody or certainty that other ballots weren’t destroyed or that the ballots found were cast by real, live American citizens.

Why is the White House wasting its time with Jim Acosta?

Silvio Canto, Jr.  "CNN is considering suing the Trump administration over Jim Acosta.

I’ll leave this legal issue to our AT friends who understand the law.  

"My larger point is simple:  Why get into a fight with a network that few people watch?  

Honestly, I only hear about Jim Acosta when he does something stupid and Fox News tells us about.  

It reminds me of the story about then candidate Governor Howard Dean.  He used to attack Rush Limbaugh all of the time hoping for the counterpunch and the audience that came with it.  

"Don't get me wrong.  I am not a fan of Jim Acosta.  

"My friend Orlando Avendaño, a columnist from Venezuela, got it right this week:   

What I have criticized Trump most are his authoritarian gestures before the press: his constant attacks on the media, even though they may be biased and partial. It is the most dangerous thing about the Republican president because, as CNN rightly says, the free press is vital for the healthy functioning of societies. 

This is essential. And every time it is necessary to quote Tocqueville, John Stuart Mill, or Thomas Jefferson himself, who said: “Our freedom depends on the free press, and that can not be limited without losing it.” 

But I cannot defend Jim Acosta. Wednesday’s attacks by Trump were not against “freedom,” the greatest value, but against the crude and discourteous gestures of the CNN journalist.

It was not appropriate behavior for a presidential press conference. He stood up and tried to take the floor, even without the microphone. 

"He did not hand it over, he roughly removed it from the woman doing her job. 

Press conferences are for questions, not for contrasting opinions. It was not a debate. " . . .
