"U.S.—The official web store of the Democratic Party announced a slew of new products Thursday geared toward helping left-leaning voters incite riots and mob people they disagree with in public places.
"The Democratic National Committee proudly announced the varied offerings, including pitchforks, medieval torches, throwing rocks, and more.
" 'When they go low, we mob them in the streets," said a DNC representative. "And now you can do that with official Democrat gear: high-quality pitchforks perfect for storming Republicans in restaurants, torches you can use to burn down conservatives' homes, and rocks to chuck at pretty much anyone to the right of you."
"Democrats promised a new selection of gear will be added to the shop every week, from homemade explosive devices to spears, and even a miniature trebuchet for launching yourself to tackle any Republican official you see enjoying a quiet meal.
" 'For all your civil discussion needs, make sure to check out the official Democrat store often," the rep added."
Judging by the voices cheering O'Rourke when he enters, I'd guess he is a big favorite of millennial females. Washington Times"In the program for an exhibition of his works at a museum in Stockholm in 1968, pop artist Andy Warhol famously predicted “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.” The phrase “15 minutes of fame” has since come to describe anyone or anything that’s a short-lived blip on the pop culture or media radar.
"Fast-forward 50 years, and that “future” is now. The latest manifestation of Warhol’s prediction is one Robert F. “Beto” O’Rourke. The former Texas Democratic congressman’s 15 minutes of fame were up last November after he lost a U.S. Senate race to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz, but apparently, no one thought to tell him. "Mr. O’Rourke didn’t need to find a real job after losing the Senate contest (in which he became a liberal media darling for nearly upsetting Mr. Cruz, whom they loathe) because he’s married to the daughter of a billionaire, so this “1 percenter” by marriage instead opted to fail upward. "Despite serving three terms in the House that were at best undistinguished, Mr. O’Rourke surveyed a weak Democratic presidential field for 2020 and concluded that his closer-than-expected Senate contest entitled him to serious consideration for the party’s nomination for president." . . .
But it was a conservative website that had the best riposte for Mr. O’Rourke’s risible proposal. It has produced for sale a T-shirt that reads, “Nobody needs an AR-15? Nobody needs a whiny liberal either, yet here you are.”
Yet if Romney was our only choice to run against Bernie or any other Democrat, I'd have no choice but to vote for him as was the case in 2016.
Senator Pierre Delecto ends the career of Senator Mitt Romney. . . "The good news for non-quisling Republicans is that this should end the career of Pierre/Mitt to be the next John McCain as the go-to-guy whenever the Democrats and the media need a "Republican" to attack President Trump and conservatives. Pierre/Mitt is now a joke, a buffoon. The Dems and media may use Mitt, but nobody has any respect for him. Who now cares what Mitt or Pierre says?
"It is difficult to believe that Mitt beat Newt Gingrich in the 2012 primaries, and we got stuck with him and Paul Ryan."

What does one say about Mitt Romney's descent into elitist madness? A fake Twitter account! It's as though he were in middle school. Those of us who supported his bid for the presidency in 2012 are shocked and horrified by his childish attempt to take Trump down, to see him impeached. What became of this man we all believed to be above reproach? He wanted to be Trump's secretary of state. That did not happen, so it seems he is bitter and has regressed to schoolyard bullying.
. . . " 'Total speculation: it's a pun based on 'in pari delicto.' 'In pari' is replaced by 'Pierre' because Romney did his mission in France and speaks French, and 'delicto' (offense) is replaced with 'delecto' (delight)," one user wrote. "This explanation is also super dorky, and thus likely correct."
Daily Caller. . . "Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Wednesday that she “probably came off as too serious” during the 2016 election.
"Clinton joined daughter Chelsea Clinton on “The View” to discuss the book they co-authored, “The Book of Gutsy Women,” which was published Oct. 1. The book tells the stories of women who have inspired the Clinton women – “women with the courage to stand up to the status quo, ask hard questions, and get the job done.' ”
'So some day, if a Democrat becomes President and theRepublicanswin the House, even by a tiny margin, they can impeach the President, without due process or fairness or any legal rights. All Republicans must remember what they are witnessing here - a lynching. But we will WIN!' he tweeted.
UK Daily Mail"Joe Biden has apologized for using the word 'lynching' when describing the impeachment of President Bill Clinton in 1998. "His apology comes after the former Vice President lambasted President Donald Trump for also using the exact same word as he described his current impeachment process. " 'This wasn't the right word to use and I'm sorry about that,' Biden wrote in a tweet late on Tuesday night.
"Biden used the word during a 1998 CNN interview as he defended then President Clinton on-air.
"But the former VP went on to imply that unlike him, the current President used the word to 'deliberately'evoke racist connotations.
" 'Trump on the other hand chose his words deliberately today in his use of the word lynching and continues to stoke racial divides in this country daily,' Biden implored.
"Biden is now coming under fire for his double standard after he earlier described Donald Trump as 'despicable' for comparing the impeachment inquiry to 'a lynching'. " . . .
Apparently Every Democrat In Existence Used The Term “Lynching” To Defend The Clintons. . . "Of course, a little digging has turned up the reality that Democrats have used the term “lynch” in its various forms (lynch mob, lynching, etc.) many times. It’s pretty laughable just how prevalent their use of the word has been throughout the years. Worse, they did so specifically decrying impeachment, the very thing Trump is decrying. You can’t make this stuff up.
As for the Democrats, we will simply share an ancient piece of Southern wisdom handed down the generations: “Ain’t never been a lynch town amounted to nothin’.” We’ll find the same is true of political parties.
Mitt Romney Caught with Secret ‘Pierre Delecto’ Twitter Account to Champion Himself. . . "Everything about this story says so much about Mitt Romney: his pettiness, his insecurity, his lack of character, honesty, and decency, starting with how it all unraveled: Romney doing business with the establishment media — in this case, the far-left Atlantic and activist-reporter, McKay Coppins, who was originally hired at BuzzFeed to destroy Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign.
"Back in 2011, Coppins was the affirmative-action hire of all affirmative-action hires. Determined to win Barack Obama a second term, BuzzFeed knew it needed a left-wing Mormon (or a “media-approved Mormon,” as I dubbed him at the time) on the team, someone who could trash Romney without being called a religious bigot." . . .
. . . "It was revealed Sunday evening by Slate that the 72-year-old Utah senator goes by the name Pierre Delecto, with the handle @qaws9876, on his undercover Twitter account that he admittedly uses to act as a 'lurker' on the social media site.
"In an interview withThe Atlanticpublished Sunday, Romney gave some clues to his alter ego account, that lead Slate to be able to track down the Pierre Delecto account." . . .
The newly rebellious senator has become an outspoken dissident in Trump’s Republican Party, just in time for the president’s impeachment trial.“ 'That’s kind of what he does,” Romney said with a shrug, and then got up to retrieve an iPad from his desk. He explained that he uses a secret Twitter account—“What do they call me, a lurker?”—to keep tabs on the political conversation. “I won’t give you the name of it,” he said, but “I’m following 668 people.” Swiping at his tablet, he recited some of the accounts he follows, including journalists, late-night comedians (“What’s his name, the big redhead from Boston?”), and athletes. Trump was not among them. “He tweets so much,” Romney said, comparing the president to one of his nieces who overshares on Instagram. “I love her, but it’s like, Ah, it’s too much.” (After this story was published, Slate identified a Twitter accountusing the name Pierre Delecto that seemed to match the senator’s description of his lurker account. When I spoke to Romney on the phone Sunday night, his only response was, “C'est moi.”)" . . .
RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel: ‘Socialist’ Democrats ‘Are Addicted to Power’ and Will ‘Never Let It Go’"Ronna Romney McDaniel, Chair of the Republican National Committee, has warned that Democrats have a socialist agenda and are addicted to power. McDaniel spoke to Fox & Friends on Tuesday about the RNC’s new ‘Victims of Socialism’ campaign.’ “Well, when you say socialism a lot of people in this country don’t understand what that means and so when you hear it firsthand from people from Venezuela or Cuba who have dealt with socialism, who’ve been driven from their countries, who have dealt with the poverty and the instability it brings to their government, I think it really resonates,” McDaniel said. “ 'We’ve launched victimsofsocialism.org so we can hear their stories firsthand. And it is very powerful.” "Following a clip of a video promoting the ‘Victims of Socialism’ campaign, Fox & Friends host Steve Doocy asked if any Democratic presidential candidates were featured in it.
“ 'We actually have in the video a man named Warner, who’s a former mayor,” McDaniel said." . . .
. . . and Possible Cover-Up by Senior CNN Management
Project Veritas. . . "Last week, Project Veritas began releasing #ExposeCNN videos showing bias against the President, certain Democratic Presidential candidates, as well as the dissatisfaction of several longtime employees with the network’s current state. "Today, we are releasing Part IV exposing CNN’s attitude towards sexual harassment and assault allegedly happening within the network." . . .
. . .
"Project Veritas Reaches Out to CNN Employees for Comment
"As a result of the audio and video recording acquired by Veritas journalists and CNN insider Cary Poarch, Veritas journalists approached Steve Brusk, Jake Tapper and Rick Saleeby in Washington, D.C., in order to ask for comment on our Expose CNN series and the Brusk allegations. Project Veritas also reached out to Matt Dornic, Vice President of Communications and Digital Partnerships at CNN. Neither Jake Tapper nor Rick Saleeby commented, but Steve Brusk said:
“ 'I, I, I don’t. Um but uh, I’ll let our PR people talk to you about that”…“No, sir. I’m happy to put you in touch with our PR people.”
"Call to CNN President Jeff Zucker’s Office
"In an attempt to get comment from Jeff Zucker on the released materials, Project Veritas received the following response from Zucker’s administrative assistant in a phone call: “We don’t have any comment, thanks for calling.”

. . . "On Thursday, a reporter asked Biden why Obama had yet to endorsed him for president, to which the former VP replied, "I asked President Obama not to endorse, and he doesn’t want to. "Listen, we should — whoever wins this nomination should win it on their own merits." That's when things got awkward.". . .
. . . "The apology could very well backfire on the embattled Biden because as has repeatedly been seen when dealing with the social media outrage mob, giving into them has been the worst option and once they have sensed weakness, like sharks they move in for the kill.
Mrs. Obama’s comments on withholding their endorsement nonetheless have to sting, especially after the human gaffe machine sent Barack a friendship bracelet last month."

The mother of all hissy fits"By now, you've all heard about Speaker Nancy Pelosi walking out on President Trump. I'm still a bit confused about "he said," but "she said" that he showed no respect. "My theory is that Speaker Pelosi was trying to pick a fight with President Trump to compensate for the announcement that there'd be no impeachment vote anytime soon.
"What else do you do when the left wants to hang him from the tree outside of the Capitol Building?
"No matter what, Speaker Pelosi did not look good for a woman who is third in line to assume the presidency.
She must imagine it portrays her in a good light. It doesn’t, no matter how many progressive women share it triumphantly on social media as a symbol of female empowerment.
It’s more a symbol of female entitlement.
It’s an embarrassment to women who want to be judged on their merits, not given special treatment by men through melodrama and flouncing hysterics.
"To be honest, it'd be better if our leaders would be able to talk and not scream at each other. "At the same time, this was a premeditated attack intended to show the left that the speaker hates the President as much as they do."
"Is Hillary really crazy? Or is this some kind of bizarre strategy to get Democrats to begin calling for her to save the party from the loony left? The former is possible. The latter is delusional. So maybe her close loss to Trump has finally taken its toll on her mental state and she's lost touch with reality" Rick Moran
Rick Moran"Hillary Clinton's bizarre accusation that the Russians are "grooming" Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard for a third party run at the White House appears to be having the exact opposite effect she intended. “She’s the favorite of the Russians. They have a bunch of sites and bots and other ways of supporting her so far,” Clinton said on a recent podcast. "That comment has led to an outpouring of support for Gabbard and harsh criticism of Clinton. In fact, Gabbard, who is barely registering in polls, is now fundraising off of the comment." . . .
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Friday backed out of Fortune's Most Powerful Women Summit in Washington, D.C. because Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard and former Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen are also scheduled to speak, Fox News reported. Her team, however, said it was because of "scheduling conflicts." . . .
"WASHINGTON, D.C.—According to sources at a DC-area Costco, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was asked to leave Costco again after repeatedly accusing a lady handing out food samples of being a Russian asset.
"It wasn't clear how Clinton had ended up in the Costco, as she usually has her servants' servants go to the market for her. Some suggested she wanted to disguise herself and go be among her subjects to see how the other 99% lives." . . .
"Secondly, I think it’s been pretty well established that regardless of Trump’s faults, he is no Russian asset. How can you take a Clinton screw-up and redirect it at Trump? Welcome to partisan politics. " Sheeesh!
