Kassy Dillon  "I spoke to people from all walks of life." 
"Last week, I had the privilege of attending my second March for Life in Washington, D.C., and for the second time I was absolutely blown away by the crowd’s size and energy.
"I spoke to people from all walks of life. I was inspired by their stories and by what led them to travel to our nation’s capital in cold weather to march in slush to show their support for the unborn.

"The main thing I learned at the event is that the Left’s caricature of pro-life Americans as being religious, old, white, women-hating men is a lie.

 

"Watch my interviews with participants of the march below:"

Tom Fitton Threatens FOIA Lawsuit to Uncover How CNN Was Tipped Off on Roger Stone Raid

The Gateway Pundit  "CNN claimed it was a hunch that led them to Stone’s house — their gut instinct is so good that they just happened to know the FBI was going to arrest Roger Stone Friday morning.
"Even the local reporters had no clue the FBI was going to raid Stone’s house.

"At least six FBI vehicles and approximately 27 officers stormed Roger Stone’s home in Fort Lauderdale. The KGB FBI agents were dressed in tactical vests with large weapons. They were wearing night vision glasses.
"This is a new low for the FBI.
"The Judge released Stone on a very low bond which proves the FBI raid was abusive and excessive.
"On Friday, President of Judicial Watch Tom Fitton threatened a FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) request to get to the bottom of how CNN was tipped off to the raid.

Roger Stone Indicted in Mueller Probe; CNN was there to cover it

National Review

 

. . . "Mueller’s team accused Stone of making “multiple false statements” to the House Intelligence Committee about his connection to WikiLeaks and his communications with the Trump campaign about it. During the 2016 campaign season, WikiLeaks released internal emails and documents stolen from the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee by Russian operatives.
Stone is also accused of attempting to influence another Mueller witness, Randy Credico, who communicated with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange during the 2016 campaign season.

“ 'They found no Russian collusion or they would have charged him with it,” said Stone’s attorney, Grant Smith. “Roger intends to fight these trumped up baseless charges that have nothing to do with the original intent of the special counsel’s investigation.”

"Smith insisted that Stone did not have access to any of the stolen materials published by WikiLeaks ahead of their release, and said Stone’s false statements were not malicious but resulted from gaps in his memory." . . .

CNN Just Happened To Show Up At 5 AM At Roger Stone’s House For FBI Raid Because Of Reporter’s ‘Instinct’
. . . "So they just happened to know they would show up then so he arrives at 4 a.m. to wait? Uh huh. Looks an awful lot like FBI leaking for political effect. This after all the other questions about the investigation to begin with, including using Democratic opposition research and Steele who was in the pay of the Democrats to help challenge the election.
"Via Twitchy:  . . ."

OK, Just how DID CNN learn about the Stone arrest?
. . . “ 'Seriously the CNN footage at Stone’s house is fishy,” John Podhoretz of the New York Post wrote.

Seriously the CNN footage at Stone’s house is fishy

— John Podhoretz (@jpodhoretz) January 25, 2019

"Tony Shaffer, a retired U.S. Army Reserve Lieutenant Colonel, went a step further and claimed that CNN had “special access to the raid,” calling the footage a “dramatic set up allowed by the FBI' .”

While I am fully capable of sour grapes toward the anti-Trump forces, we do have ample reason to attach CNN to any efforts against this president. I fully expect this to continue against any Republican president in the future now that this is a new, vindictive Democrat Party. TD

Sarah Sanders asks the correct question after Stone's indictment:

Sarah Sanders: When Will The FBI Surround The Homes Of Hillary Clinton, James Comey, James Clapper?
"Great question. Although I think she means false statements to FBI (Clinton), false statements to Congress (Clapper, Comey)."

"Maxine Waters goes after banks. Good" Good?

I suspect Maxine's wealth will multiply greatly over these next two years.

Don Surber  . . . "Politico reported, "Big banks are bracing for their CEOs to be called to testify soon at what could be an intense House hearing led by new Financial Services Chairwoman Maxine Waters, sources familiar with the matter said.

 " 'The details of the hearing, anticipated to happen by this spring, have not been finalized, but lawmakers and bank representatives are expecting it.

" 'The banks that are seen as likely to be invited to participate include JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Spokespeople for several of the banks declined to comment, and others didn't respond.

" 'In a preview of the kind of tone the lenders should expect to face, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) told Politico he wanted to hear from the executives 'why we bail them out and can't experience any meaningful support from them in times of trouble.'"

"The banks got in bed with Democrats. Maybe Democrats will pass laws that protect the banks from competition like they did with Dodd-Frank Act, and maybe the banks will give Waters and Cleaver cheap loans like they did with Dodd and Frank. In fact, I will bet on it." . . .

Maxine Waters' Extreme Agenda  "There's trouble ahead for banks, Wall Street, and upscale suburbs. Not to mention President Trump. Elections have consequences. One of the biggest is that firebrand Congresswoman Maxine Waters is the new head of the powerful House Financial Services Committee. That gives her power over banking, the securities and insurance industries, and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
"Egging her on to pursue a far-left agenda will be new committee members like self-styled Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez , "motherf***er"-shouting Rashida Tlaib,  Elizabeth Warren acolyte Katie Porter and radical Ayanna Pressley.
. . .
"That's Waters' distorted interpretation of what happened. In fact, throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Congress used the Community Reinvestment Act and anti-discrimination laws to coerce banks into making mortgage loans to low-income borrowers with lousy credit ratings and, in some cases, no down payment. The idea was to promote minority home ownership. But when the borrowers couldn't pay, lawmakers turned on the banks, accusing them of predatory lending. Waters is poised to repeat that failed experiment." . . .

Nancy Pelosi: third most powerful in the US government

When Nancy Pelosi wins, Americans lose   "Nancy Pelosi has had an eventful week.  Wednesday, letters were exchanged between herself and President Trump, who eventually conceded to her seething demand to postpone the State of the Union address.  Left-leaning media announced this as some kind of a victory, like CNN's front-page headline, which read, "Pelosi claims win over Trump in State of the Union showdown."  It begs to be asked: what did this really accomplish?

 

"The answer is that it has given Nancy Pelosi a feeling of vindication, that she finally got payback for President Trump canceling her vacation abroad trip. But does it help the American citizens whom she is supposed to represent?  Not allowing the president to address Congress and the American people is just a maneuver so she can act as a gatekeeper between the country and its elected leader, and that is at the core alarmingly anti-American.
"By using the government shutdown as an excuse to go against the tradition of the State of the Union, Pelosi is guaranteeing that the subtext of history remembers her as a spiteful obstructionist while paving the way for future speakers to use the same tactic, perhaps against a future Democratic president." . . .  Read more

Trump Playing the Long Game With State of the Union Deferral " . . . massive MAGA spectacle; she’d regret the snub for sure. Other creative ideas arose: deliver it at the border; deliver it down the hall in the Senate.
"But late Wednesday night, the president decided there would be no alternative address, no high drama as he took to some other stage to hammer Democrats about the standoff that they could solve in an hour. He would in fact defer to Speaker Pelosi’s yanking of her House chamber invitation and schedule the address when the shutdown is over. “There is no venue that can compete with the history, tradition and importance of the House Chamber,” he tweeted, promising “a great State of the Union address in the near future.”
"The immediate question was not whether his haters would celebrate this momentary surrender; they promptly did. On the left and among his tormentors who still think they are on the right, the mockery was instant, ridiculing a supposed tough, deal-making Trump for bowing to the superior skills of Nancy Pelosi." . . .

And no matter how his maneuvers may strike any observer, one thing is certain: he does not do anything that he does not expect to accrue to his benefit.

 

Students blame Trump for shutdown...until hearing offer he made Dems

Campus Reform
Campus Reform's Cabot Phillips asked students who is to blame for the shutdown.
Students tell Pelosi to "compromise, compromise, compromise."
Students were unaware of compromises Trump has already offered Pelosi.
. . . "Wanting to know if college students would agree with Speaker Pelosi, Campus Reform's Cabot Phillips headed to George Mason University.
"I soon discovered that students nearly unanimously agreed that Trump was to blame for the shutdown, however, many of them were completely unaware of the compromise offer Trump had made earlier in the week. 
"With that in mind, I then asked them if they’d change their mind on Trump being to blame if he were to offer a compromise deal with things the Democrats have been calling for, like DACA protections and humanitarian funding. 
"Students quickly agreed that if Trump were to make such an offer, the Democrats should surely take him up on it… what they didn’t realize is that President Trump had already made such an offer. 
"Would that change their minds on who is to blame?

Flashback: In First Act As State Rep, Ilhan Omar Asked Judge For Compassion For 9 Men Who Planned To Join ISIS

Weasel Zippers

From 2016:

MINNEAPOLIS (KMSP) – The 9 Minnesota men charged with planning to join ISIS are scheduled to be sentenced next week. Ahead of those court dates, 13 letters were sent to Judge Michael Davis in the case of defendant Abdirahman Yasin Daud, including a letter from state Rep. Ilhan Omar, who on Election Night became with first elected Somali-American lawmaker in the nation.
Rep. Omar asked Judge Davis for “compassion” and a “restorative approach to justice,” concluding that “this ruling can set a precedent and has the potential to be a landmark case in addressing extremism.” Read a complete copy of Rep. Omar’s letter at the bottom of this story.
Daud was one of two young men from the Twin Cities arrested in San Diego in April 2015 in an alleged plot to buy fake passports for travel to Syria. Federal prosecutors requested 30 years in prison for Daud, with a lifetime of supervised release.
The 13 letters sent to Judge Davis on behalf of Daud include similar pleas for leniency from Minneapolis City Council member Abdi Warsame, a Minneapolis Public Schools dean of students, several youth program coordinators and Daud’s own mother and brother. Warsame’s brief letter said Daud “is a young man who has a future ahead of him.”

First Journalist Fired for Fake News and Threats Directed at Catholic MAGA Kids

PJ Media

. . . "The bright spot on the horizon is that The Wrap is reporting that at least one of these terrible "journalists" has been fired:

Digital company INE Entertainment has fired a journalist who publicly wished for the death of several Covington Catholic High School students and their parents in a pair of tweets over the weekend. Aside from his job as a post-production supervisor at INE, Erik Abriss is a contributor to New York Media’s pop culture site Vulture. “We were surprised and upset to see the inflammatory and offensive rhetoric used on Erik Abriss’ Twitter account this weekend. He worked with the company in our post-production department and never as a writer,” the company said in a statement to TheWrap on Monday.

"Abriss was one of the hundreds of adults on Twitter calling for the deaths of children for the crime of wearing MAGA hats and smiling in public. Lashing out on Twitter, Abriss expressed his deep wish that the children and their parents would die.

" 'I don’t know what it says about me but I’ve truly lost the ability to articulate the hysterical rage, nausea, and heartache this makes me feel," typed Abriss. "I just want these people to die. Simple as that. Every single one of them. And their parents.”

Well, that's disturbing. But it gets worse." . . .

Mr. Abriss, please give us your thoughts on these, um, school children:

 

A battle the Trump administration should relish

PowerLine  "Yesterday, John noted that the escalating Democratic attacks on Catholicism are, in part, an attempt to prepare the battlefield for the day when Justice Ginsburg dies or is unable to continue on the Supreme Court. In that event, said John, President Trump will likely nominate Judge Amy Coney Barrett to replace Ginsburg, and Democrats will make Barrett’s religious faith the basis for attacking her nomination.

"To which I say, bring it on.

"Judge Barrett is the mother of seven children. Two of them were adopted from Haiti. Her youngest biological child has special needs. She is a remarkable and very sympathetic women.

"In addition, she is a first rate legal mind. Barrett graduated summa cum laude from the Notre Dame Law School, where she was executive editor of the Notre Dame Law Review. She then clerked for our friend Judge Laurence Silberman on the D.C. Circuit and for Justice Scalia on the Supreme Court.

"As a law professor at Notre Dame, Barrett was twice named “distinguished professor of the year.”

"She continues to teach law as a sitting judge.

"Do the Democrats really want to got after someone this sympathetic and this distinguished because she believes in the tenets of the Catholic faith? The answer seems to be yes. After all, they did it when Barretts’ nomination to the court of appeals was before the Senate." . . .

Haters Won’t Stop With the Jews  . . . "Some have theorized that the Democrats’ escalating attacks on Catholicism are preparing the ground against the day when Ruth Ginsburg dies or is unable to continue on the Supreme Court. President Trump is almost certain to nominate Amy Barrett to replace her, and Democrats will make Barrett’s religious faith the basis for their inevitable smears. Their theme will be, explicitly or implicitly, that no practicing Catholic should be allowed to serve on the Court." . . .

Did Savannah Guthrie graduate from the CNN School of Journalism?

Tenured Prof. Don Lemon, visiting lecturer.

NBC’s Savannah Guthrie and Nathan Phillips Spread Fake News About His Vietnam Claims
 Listen to her tone of condolence toward Phillips and of accusation toward young Sandmann.
. . . These lies continue, even after the full video proves they did nothing wrong. For the better part of an hour, the boys were taunted by a group of black nationalists hurling racist and homophobic slurs. The boys reacted with good humor and even sought a dialogue." . .
 Guthrie wanted the boys to apologize for wearing MAGA hats

If the Covington boys had been members of a media- and Democratic Party-favored group, such as DACA DREAMers, the confrontation against them by the Black Israelites and Nathan Phillips would be viewed as a hate crime.  But these are white, Catholic boys wearing MAGA hats attending a pro-life rally.  Their parents have been described by Hillary Clinton as deplorables and by Obama as bitter clingers to God and guns.  They are fair game.

Nathan Phillips Tried to Disrupt Catholic Mass by Chanting, Beating Drum

 

 NBC Tries To Smear Covington Catholic Again. There's Just One Big Problem. Well, Two.  . . . "The headline for the article, clearly meant to suggest the school is anti-gay, reads: “Gay valedictorian banned from speaking at Covington graduation ‘not surprised’ by D.C. controversy.” This headline actually makes the tweet look more accurate.

"Others, including Federalist contributor Chad Felix Greene (who also happens to be gay), quickly noted how misleading the story was, as the student was not banned for speaking because he was gay. “He submitted the speech too late and it was too political for the venue,” Greene wrote."

So, basically, NBC found a student from another school to trash Covington Catholic, and insinuated that somehow Covington is anti-gay.. . .

McConnell Defends Covington Kids, Shames Lying Media From Senate Floor
. . . "While many in the media did offer apologies to the students, many, including newly-elected Congresswoman Ilhan Omar continued the attacks on the children days after the media lies were debunked.
"Attorney Robert Barnes gave the left-wing media sycophants and celebrities 48 hours to retract their libelous statements against the Covington teens or face lawsuits." . . .

The Media Wildly Mischaracterized That Video of Covington Catholic Students Confronting a Native American Veteran

Remember who is whom in this societal struggle:

The Covington Catholic Students Deserve A Huge Apology From Everyone. I’ll Start

The Federalist Papers

The Covington Catholic school students should go on with the rest of their young lives knowing that many are sorry they contributed to their public impugning and regret it. By Glenn T. Stanton

" . . .The boys, not the instigators, were the assaulted, and the Native-American gentleman wasn’t the victim he and others made himself out to be. He seems to not have been a truth-teller either. There had been a great deal of nasty behavior going on for some time from a great many adults on the scene, and there doesn’t seem to be any evidence in the larger footage of the skirmish that the boys did much of anything ugly to anyone." . . .

"In fact, even though teens, it looks like they conducted themselves more kindly and restrained than the others involved. This brings me to my purpose here. I want to apologize for following the pitch-forked crowd. I made a conclusion about these boys that put them in the worst possible light.

 

"I thought (knew!) they were punks and said so publicly. I was as wrong as I could be about that, and I am deeply sorry. Sorry to anyone who saw that on my Facebook page. Sorry to anyone it swayed to think badly about the boys. Sorry to the boys themselves, their school, and their parents.
"Now, let me be clear. My Facebook audience is minuscule, so the number of folks who saw my comment was insignificant. I don’t apologize or excuse myself for how few I passed the false story to. I apologize for joining the horde, period.
"I will be writing a personal letter of apology to the boys, not to further flagellate myself, but to offer something to counter the mega-tons of vitriol that came crashing down upon them. "They should go on with the rest of their young lives knowing that many regret contributing to their public impugning.
"They need to know that the world is indeed fairer than this, and to have faith in people doing the right thing when the whole story is gathered. They should have such letters to read as encouragement months and years from now as they continue to struggle with what went down. This will follow them a great long while." . . .
