Bizarro World: Demented Anti-Trump Feminists Chant 'Allahu Akbar' & Bow In Muslim Prayer

Youtube  Radovan Gavrilovich commented on this video:  "

I would love to see these feminists go to the middle east and make these chants in front of a Capitol building in Libya, Sudan, Iran, etc., while also talking about equality. They wouldn't last 1 hour before they got thrown into a hole, buried up to their heads before the entire city stoned em....or maybe they can go to Saudi Arabia where they are a tad bit more progressive and they just decapitate you in the square for everyone to watch and record on their camera phones."

"Yes, They're That Stupid. Pro Islam Anti-Trump feminists chant 'Allahu Akbar' during protest in Berlin Germany. Feminists joined Muslims in an Arab call to prayer during an anti Trump protest. One of the women was wearing a pink p*ssy hat while she happily submitted to Islam by kneeling with Muslims during their prayer. Islam and feminism go together so beautifully because Islam has done wonders for the women’s movement. The women’s marches are a natural magnet for Islamists who seek to infiltrate American society. The feminists readily embrace them. Who knows why. It’s the liberal thing to do? They are infiltrating leftist groups worldwide.
"Get a grip on yourselves, feminists. o protest President Donald Trump, feminist in Germany donned hijabs while chanting "Allah Akbar," a strange dichotomy since the hijab oppresses women in the name of "Allah Akbar" in the Muslim world.
"Feminists in the United States did similar stunts during the "Women's March" in Washington D.C. this past Saturday, also donning hijabs to show solidarity with Muslim women. None of them seemed to realize that women in the middle-east are mandated to wear hijabs under pain of death.
"Some American Muslim women like Asra Q. Nomani and Hala Arafa have asked the feminists to please stop doing this since the hijab represents oppression to them, not liberation. 
" 'In the name of 'interfaith,' these well-intentioned Americans are getting duped by the agenda of Muslims who argue that a woman’s honor lies in her 'chastity' and unwittingly pushing a platform to put a hijab on every woman," the women wrote in Washington Post. "Please do this instead: Do not wear a headscarf in 'solidarity' with the ideology that most silences us, equating our bodies with 'honor.' Stand with us instead with moral courage against the ideology of Islamism that demands we cover our hair."
"However, donning the hijab in solidarity doesn't come close to the absurdity of having an actual Shariah Law advocate, Linda Sarsour, as one of the organizers.
"As brilliantly displayed by Steven Crowder, none of the feminist at the so-called "Women's March" have been able to identify just what right they're afraid of losing under President Trump, other than their precious abortions, but good luck getting the general public to sympathize with them on that.
"In the meantime, "Allah Akbar" and hijab away, feminists. Just be sure the cameras can see you, and the GOP will retain their congressional majorities come 2018." Let's hope that isn't too optimistic, given the education of Americans today. TD

The Virginia train wreck has set the stage for 2020. Should Kermit Gosnell now be set free to resume his abortion business?

Rich Terrell

M. Catharine Evans  "Virginia's Del. Kathy Tran's and Governor Ralph Northam's open and public admission that their bill, H.B. 2491, allowed for the murder of a baby up until the time of birth and afterward was never supposed to happen.

"Tran's and Northam's partial-birth abortion-funders, Planned Parenthood and EMILY's List,  have always encouraged their candidates in Southern states to stay mum on abortion until they get into office.

"For example, in the run-up to the 2018 midterms, in blue state Virginia, where there are still plenty of conservative voters and where congressional races were tight, Democratic candidates focused on health care, fair wages, and security issues.  Abortion, if mentioned at all, was couched in the more moderate-sounding "reproductive rights."

"Consequently, Tran's and Northam's startling and unpredictable honesty about H.B. 2491 had the Democratic Party and its pro-abortion benefactors trying to stifle any reporting suggesting that Democrats are the party of infanticide." . . .   Read more...

Gosnell: When Art Collides with Reality and Exposes the Truth   "A new law in New York legalizes the actions for which abortionist Kermit Gosnell was sent to prison for life." 

. . . "Gosnell director Nick Searcy wrote at TownHall that New York has now legalized almost everything that Gosnell and his aides did in Philadelphia: Gosnell was convicted of killing breathing infants who had already been born. It is now legal in New York to kill an infant who survives an abortion. Gosnell was convicted of allowing untrained and unlicensed medical personnel to perform abortions. It is now legal in New York for non-physicians or any “health professionals” to perform abortions. Gosnell was convicted of performing at least 21 late-term abortions past the legal limit of 24 weeks. It is now legal in New York to terminate a pregnancy up until the due date. In New York, there is no longer any such thing as a “late-term abortion.' ” . . .

Americans Don’t Read… and That’s Affecting Our Elections

Annie Holmquist

. . . "But so what, right? In our enlightened digital age, what harm does it really bring if American literacy is tanking?

"A lot of harm, according to John Adams, particularly when it comes to elections. In 1761, he noted:

“The very Ground of our Liberties, is the freedom of Elections. Every Man has in Politicks as well as Religion, a Right to think and speak and Act for himself. No man either King or Subject, Clergyman or Layman has any Right to dictate to me the Person I shall choose for my Legislator and Ruler. I must judge for myself, but how can I judge, how can any Man judge, unless his Mind has been opened and enlarged by Reading. A Man who can read, will find in his Bible, in the common sermon Books that common People have by them and even in the Almanack and News Papers, Rules and observations, that will enlarge his Range of Thought, and enable him the better to judge who has and who has not that Integrity of Heart, and that Compass of Knowledge and Understanding, which form the Statesman.”

"Considering the state of the modern election circus, would you say it’s high time for Americans to step up their literacy game?" 

How PC Moralism Cuts Us Off From Our Cultural Heritage

Intellectual Takeout

 To today's Politically Correct generation, books should not be read because they are good, but only because we agree with them. Because of this, our society is becoming increasingly inbred--which is why we see so many intellectual hemophiliacs: people who can't sustain the wound of disagreement, lest they bleed to death.

"Anyone who has read classic literature knows that there are things in old books that offend our sensibilities. And this isn't a new phenomenon either. Every generation sees something in the thought and writing of previous generations that it doesn't like or that it finds offensive. 

"The difference today is not that there are any more things about the past we don't like, but in our reaction to them.

"Writing in the New York Times Book Review, Brian Morton takes note of the increasing tendency among young people to condemn out-of-hand any piece of literature that contains an intolerant character or distasteful idea.

"In the article, titled "Virginia Woolf? Snob! Richard Wright? Sexist! Dostoyevsky? Anti-Semite!" Morton mentions meeting a college student who couldn't bring himself to read more than fifty pages into Edith Wharton's The House of Mirth because he encountered an anti-Semitic character.

"Every generation down to the last one took the warnings of the occasional disagreeableness of the past under consideration and then read old books anyway. You were not expected to find these things appealing, but it was always expected that you understand the mentality behind them, a mentality you could only understand if you read about it.

"But today's readers are different. Says Morton:" . . . Read more...

AOC: The Perfect Graduate of Today's Biased Colleges

The real problem is our colleges (and earlier education, obviously) that are turning out the likes of AOC on an assembly line of the sort that drove Charlie Chaplin mad in Modern Times.

Roger L. Simon "In the immediate sense, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez may be the best thing to happen to the Republican Party since Abraham Lincoln. Her Green New Deal is as much dead in the water as it is brain dead and constitutes a fabulous talking point for the GOP to run on in 2020.

"But there is a point of concern — and in the long run a more important one.

"AOC represents the natural outgrowth of our extraordinarily biased higher educational system. She is its valedictorian, its Social Justice Summa Cum Laude. Give her the SJWPhD honoris causa and, while you're at it, give the United States of America to China. They won't have to fire a shot.

"Think I exaggerate? Consider the level of writing and thinking in her Green Deal in whatever ever-changing iteration, with or without the banning of cow flatulence and air travel, and notwithstanding the guaranteed income for those unwilling to work. (Isn't that already the case with internet trolls — but I digress?) This document, if one can call it that, resembles nothing more than the kind of swill presented to — and highly approved by — professors in today's grievance-obsessed colleges, where Shakespeare and Milton are dismissed or rejected and actual thought (i.e., intellectual reasoning) is ridiculed as manifestations of "white privilege." . . .

High-powered Dem Andre Fladell: What’s hurting the country the most is dysfunctional and disgusting CNN  "Palm Beach County Democrat and political powerbroker Andre Fladell is as angry at CNN’s fake news as Donald J. Trump.

"And, it sounds a little different when it’s coming from one of the most powerful Democrats in the Sunshine State.

“ 'What’s hurting the country the most, in my opinion, is the dysfunctional and disgusting reporting of a cable channel called CNN,” Fladell said during a meeting earlier this month of the United South County Democrats.

"Once awarded the honorary title of “Prince of Palm Beach” by the county’s commissioners, Fladell is a legendary political operative recognized across Florida, in part for the way he united six warring Democrat clubs and establishments into a united faction: the South County Political Cooperative. His history is a fascinating one, to say the least."

"He is, in short, a man of immeasurable influence and power among liberals, which makes his remarks about the news media — and especially CNN — that much more glaring. Listen to some of his speech below:"   . . .

Acting AG Matthew Whitaker: Football impresario, stomper of Democrats

Ed Timperlake  "The Judiciary Committee hearing on February 8, 2019, held by Chairman Nadler (D-N.Y.) with committee witness Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker, became an epic historic failure.  Acting A.G. Whitaker's testimony is for the ages.

"It is simple: just watch clips from the hearing while taking note of the video of the Iowa Hawkeyes scoring a touchdown on a pass thrown to Number 46, Matt Whitaker.  If a person is capable of doing what Number 46 did under tremendous pressure, then the hearing was easily a symbolic walk in the park for the Acting A.G.

. . . 

"The former Iowa varsity Rose Bowl player symbolically ran every play he knew on the Democrats of the committee, while keeping a true Iowa nice style.  It was a day of symbolic smash mouth football while at times channeling his brilliant fake punt for a TD.

" 'Five minutes for lunch"?  They did not see that coming.

"A moment for the ages is captured in a lasting quote by witness  Whitaker in his reminding the chair that if Nadler sets the rules, then he also must play by the rules.  "Mr. Chairman, I see that your five minutes is up" will soon be part of congressional legends." . . .

Green New Deal Would Barely Change Earth’s Temperature. Here Are the Facts.

Heritage  (illustrations added by TD) "Here’s the most important fact about the Green New Deal: It wouldn’t work.
"Ultimately, fully implementing the Green New Deal would have no meaningful impact on global temperatures.
"Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass., released their much-anticipated blueprint for a Green New Deal Thursday.
"And make no mistake: If implemented, the Green New Deal would bring huge changes to our country. According to an FAQ put out by Ocasio-Cortez’s office, this new deal is “a 10-year plan to mobilize every aspect of American society at a scale not seen since World War 2 to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.” 
"The plan additionally asks Americans to “upgrade or replace every building in U.S. for state-of-the-art energy efficiency” and to “build out highspeed rail at a scale where air travel stops becoming necessary.”

"That’s not even all. Far from being just an energy and climate resolution, the Green New Deal resolution is a wish list for big government spending, expansive government control, and massive amounts of wealth distribution.  As Ocasio-Cortez told NPR, “the heart of the Green New Deal is about social justice.” 
"Ultimately, this deal would fundamentally change how people produce and consume energy, harvest crops, raise livestock, build homes, drive cars, travel long distances, and manufacture(sp) goods. And it wouldn’t even work.
"Green New Deal Wouldn’t Change Climate Significantly 
"But here’s the key thing: Even if Americans were on board with this radical change in behavior and lifestyle, it wouldn’t change our climate.
"In fact, the U.S. could cut its carbon dioxide emissions 100 percent and it would not make a difference in abating global warming." . . .

Accused murderer spared abortion charge thanks to Cuomo’s new law

NY Post

"Prosecutors initially included a charge of abortion against the Queens man arrested Friday in his pregnant girlfriend’s murder — but rescinded it because of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s new Reproductive Health Act.
"Queens District Attorney Richard Brown sent out a press release saying Anthony Hobson, 48, would be charged with second-degree abortion as well as murder in Sunday’s fatal stabbing of Jennifer Irigoyen, 35.

"But a DA spokeswoman later told The Post that the abortion charge “was repealed by the Legislature, and this is the law as it exists today.”

"Cuomo signed the RHA into law on Jan. 22, the 46th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision.

"The law removes abortion from the state’s criminal code and puts it into public health law." . . .
