Mr. Kelleyanne Conway, George Conway: Let's Face It, This Elise Stefanik Character Is 'Trash'

Guy Benson

"He's a man perhaps best known for trolling his wife and her boss on Twitter, to the endless delight of his new political allies, and now he's expanding his blast radius.  Reacting to Rep. Elise Stefanik's (R-NY) aggressive questioning of witnesses and other tactics during the House Intelligence Committee's impeachment proceedings last week, George Conway decided to not only urge people to donate to her 2020 opponent, but to add a little bit of color commentary about Stefanik herself, for good measure: . . ."

Places where you can leave your spare quarters!

Bob's Blog

"The satirical Babylon Bee reports,

WORLD—Airports around the world are reporting record revenues after introducing a long-awaited feature: the ability to turn off CNN on television sets in their terminals.

For just one quarter, you can turn off CNN for a full fifteen minutes while you're waiting for your flight, leaving you with the "far superior" experience of just staring at a blank screen.

"At long last," said one man waiting for his flight at LaGuardia as he dropped a few dollars' worth of quarters into the "Turn CNN Off" slot. "Honestly, I might fly more now." He's not alone: airports expect a 426% uptick in traveling over the holidays as flyers no longer have to worry about having the droning words of CNN hosts pounded into their heads for hours on a layover.

The feature has been one of the most-requested by travelers along with the dismantling of the TSA and pretzel bags with more than 3 pretzels in them.

The money-making move has inspired moments of human compassion and unity as travelers lend each other money or leave quarters behind atop the television sets for future travelers to turn off CNN. One anonymous philanthropist at DFW prepaid for over a year of CNN-less travel throughout the terminal.

"It's great to see what humanity can accomplish when we unite," said one man at LAX as he rummaged through his pockets to lend a quarter to a woman who wanted to turn off the CNN screen near her. "Here you go, miss. Enjoy your flight!"

CNN is protesting the move, saying it has cut their viewing audience in half, leaving them with just one.

A similar program is being rolled out in hospital waiting rooms throughout the country.

Epstein's Prison Guards Could Face Criminal Charges

Zero Hedge  "While the political and financial elites across the globe (and certainly in the UK) are doing everything in their power to bury the Epstein scandal - so to speak-  both literally and metaphorically, CBS reports that such efforts face a hurdle as Federal prosecutors in New York are considering bringing criminal charges against the two correctional officers responsible for guarding Jeffrey Epstein on the night of his death.

"As a reminder, Epstein, who was 66 at the time of his death, was found unresponsive in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City on August 10."

"The official explanation for Epstein's death was suicide, although skeptics have suggested that Epstein's sudden death was all too convenient as it also buried the toxic secrets of countless implicated "luminaries" and Wall Street and Beltway VIPs across all sectors of US life." . . .

Libs circulating doctored photo of Rep. Elise Stefanik giving the finger after Marie Yovanovitch’s testimony

"You can tell that Rep. Elise Stefanik hit a nerve during the impeachment hearings Friday, as George Conway and a bunch of follows are posting their donations to her opponent’s campaign and celebrating already that she won’t be reelected. Don’t be too sure though; they tried to shut her down Friday, but she persisted.

"You know they’re desperate when they’re passing around a Photoshop of Stefanik giving the finger as former ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch was receiving a standing ovation from the Democrats.

The film ‘JoJo’ Rabbit’ and the Brainwashing of Children Today

Dr. Rich Swier  
“For that reason we must insist that all organs of education which may be useful for the instruction and training of the people have to fulfill their duty towards the community. Such organs or organizations are: Education of the Youth, Young Peoples Organization, Hitler Youth, Labor Front, Party and Army–all these are institutions for the education and higher training of our people.” – Adolf Hitler, Speech before the Reichstag on January 30, 1937.
“The book press and the newspaper press, lectures and art, the theatre and the cinema, they are all organs of popular education.” – Adolf Hitler, Speech before the Reichstag on January 30, 1937.

"Today in America children are being brainwashed to “fulfill their duty towards the community [collective]” from kindergarten to the 12th grade. From the Community College to the Colleges and Universities education has become an “organ” of the state. If you don’t believe me then just ask any student what they know about Fascism, Socialism, Communism, or Marxism. Then ask them what they know about America and her role in stopping each of these ideologies.

"To understand how a brainwashed 10-year old boy can create his own fantasy world go see the satirical film JoJo Rabbit by Fox – Searchlight. Watch the trailer:"

Certain ideas and beliefs are forbidden by the intelligentsia.

"Today the the intelligentsia promote: homosexuality, are the followers of Mohammed, promote the myth that blacks are still in slavery, and are most likely Communists, Socialists, or Democratic Socialists. The Democrat Party has become the new Fascists. These protected classes have infiltrated our school system to further their agendas. For example: if you are white you are labeled a racist, if you are straight you are homophobic, and if you support the U.S. Constitution you are an imperialist. Get the picture?"

. . . 

"Obedience to the state is the primary lesson being taught in our schools, colleges and universities. Safe spaces, microaggressions, and any thought not considered proper (the First Amendment be dammed(sp)) trigger immediate and devastating responses from students, faculty and administrators in our schools."

"It’s Friday, November 15th, 2019…but before we begin, consider what passes for reasoned, seasoned political analysis in the MSM:"

ABC Chief Political Analyst: GOP Rep. Stefanik a ‘Perfect Example’ of the Failures of Electing Someone ‘Because They Are a Woman’ 

Remember Hillary saying to a crowd, "Isn't it time we had a woman for a President?

. . . "After criticism, Dowd deleted the tweet, and claimed that he was misunderstood for “just saying we need more millennials or more women [which] isn’t going to solve the problem of needing more leaders with integrity.' "

. . . Here’s precisely what provoked Dowd into dissing Stefanik:

“During the hearing, Stefanik won praise from conservative commentators for a sharp line of questioning which probed corruption allegations involving Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company which employed Hunter Biden.

Dowd and others criticized Stefanik for succumbing to partisan loyalties in response to her questioning of the impeachment witnesses. “She has campaigned on country over party and done exact opposite in office,” Dowd tweeted.“ . . .

Democrats Concede Their Impeachment Argument Is Failing

Meanwhile the show goes on, at least for a little while longer. And while it might not be must watch TV, the result of this effort will help to define the 2020 race for president. Right now, the White House has every reason to be just fine with that. 

Earl of Taint

The Federalist  "CNN reports that in a private meeting this week, top Democrats conceded that the polls on impeachment were unlikely to shift, and that their basic message is failing to break through for huge swaths of Americans. This is very close to admitting that their ultimate goal, of removing president Trump from office will not be achieved.

" 'The reason this would mean game over for the removal effort is that only a significant uptick for impeachment in polling, especially among Republicans who have been rock solid in support of Trump, could lead to GOP votes to convict in the senate. This may sound cynical, but why should Republican senators defy the wishes of the vast majority of their voters based on the Democrats’ vague and shifting arguments? 

"Even more telling than the concession that polls won’t be moving is the admission their messaging is failing. This can only really mean one of two things. Either Adam Schiff and his inquiry have failed to prove Trump engaged in impeachable and removal offenses or the 44 percent of Americans who oppose impeachment are too stupid, or brainwashed to accept the case for impeaching Trump.

"It’s pretty clear which of these two things Democrats think is going on. Rep. Steny Hoyer had this to say, “And sadly, apparently, Trump was perhaps right when he said of his own supporters that he could shoot somebody in the middle of Fifth Avenue and they would not require any accountability.” . . .

"A party that would stoop to cheap sexism and dirty photoshops doesn't really have an argument, does it?"

Monica Showalter:Truly the party of Harvey Weinstein: Democrats go vile -- and sexist -- against Rep. Elise Stefanik  "Democrats are always yelling about sexism. Pay no attention to the sorry reality that Harvey Weinstein and pretty much every sad sack caught up in the #MeToo scandal was a Democrat, and a lot of them very connected Democrats.

"They're also all about hurling middle fingers and moving the general discourse downward. A look at this video of Rep. Rashida Tlaib is proof of that, assuming you can't stand to take a gander at her explosive profanity. 

So now we have Democrats pulling the same stunts they're famous for, only this time projecting them out onto a Republican who threatens their rice bowl. They're not just acting out the behavior they denounce, they are also falsely and dishonestly trying to pin the doings they denounced onto her.

"Here's the Washington Post's account of the young but effective Republican woman now in their crosshairs, Elise Stephanik: . . ."

The Democrats Won’t Find a Savior in Michael Bloomberg

Conrad Black

The former New York City mayor should not imagine the country is waiting for him, or that the anti-Trump sniggering of the Upper East Side and the Hamptons has the least connection to the broader American electorate.

     "The best aspect of Michael Bloomberg’s potential presidential run is that if he were elected, we may be reasonably confident that he would be a competent president, which should be an immense relief to anyone who takes seriously the possibility that any of the four remaining Democratic candidates with appreciable support—Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg—could be elected.

     "On a previous presidential campaign, Biden cribbed a silly assertion by Neil Kinnock, the leader of the British opposition at the time, and he joined enthusiastically in Teddy Kennedy’s crucifixion of President Reagan’s outstanding Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork. He has much to answer for in Ukraine, and is a seriously unimpressive candidate. It gets worse from there.

     "Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) is everyone’s nightmare of a nasty kindergarten teacher, terrorizing the class with a wooden spoon. She is a quasi-Marxist who lied about her ethnicity to advance her career, lied about being fired for pregnancy, and she advocates impossible policies—especially in health care—that would not work and could not be financed. She can’t tell the truth, in words or numbers, and the United States is not a Marxist country.

     "Senator Bernie Sanders (D-Vt.—until he switches back to independent) is a cranky old Communist, but one who believes in free elections; he endlessly proclaims fatuous revolutions in a manner as irritating in content as it is acoustically. Pete Buttigieg is the indifferent mayor of an under-achieving town. He is advancing the gay cause but is the personification of glibness. But he would be a completely infeasible president.

The Most Sensible of the Lot

     "Given this fearsome drought, it is small wonder that Michael Bloomberg is coming down with Potomac Fever again. He built an immense and magnificent commercial news business from scratch; his career is one of the most illustrious of any businessman or industrialist now living. He was, on balance, an excellent mayor of New York. He promoted charter schools, showing some appreciation of the ruination of state schools accomplished by the teachers’ unions, who have turned a huge number of schools into crime-ridden day-care centers that don’t teach anything useful and waste billions of dollars. His “stop and frisk” authorization to police reduced crime in New York, which justified the disagreeable infringement of human liberties, and demonstrates that alone among the possible serious Democratic contenders, he is prepared to dissent from oppressive political correctness." . . .

Why Bloomberg’s presidential run doesn’t have a hope in hell  . . "Now Bloomberg is testing the waters as a Democratic presidential candidate in 2020. But there’s a reason no New York City mayor gets to move up to a higher office, ever, and Bloomberg embodies it: He has annoyed far too many people. My fellow conservatives despise him because of his loud support for abortion and gun control and his unabashed nanny-statism. (Bloomberg cheerfully played Mary Poppins at the Inner Circle show for politicians and journalists.) Meanwhile, liberals hate him because of his loud support for stop-and-frisk programs and because he loves capitalism and Wall Street, not to mention the Iraq War.

"Furthermore, in a Democratic Party that genuflects before the altar of political correctness, he seems almost Trumpishly insensitive. " . . .

Rep. Stefanik Reads Out Loud the Many Times Schiff Said the Whistleblower Would Testify

News Thud 

 "On day 2 of the impeachment hearings, GOP Rep. Stefanik attempted to expose hypocrisy on the part of House Intel Chair Adam Schiff by reading out loumultiple times he said he’d have the whistleblower would testify.
"Sept 24th, Schiff tweeted:

"We have been informed by the whistleblower’s counsel that their client would like to speak to our committee and has requested guidance from the Acting DNI as to how to do so."We‘re in touch with counsel and look forward to the whistleblower’s testimony as soon as this week.

Dem Senator Warner Comes Clean: Trump Unlike Obama Let Us Punch Back At Russia, Use Offensive Cyber Capabilities

Obama, like the kid afraid of the schoolyard bully, gave America's adversaries our lunch money ahead of time in the hope they wouldn't bother us. TD

NewsThud   "In a stunning admission a top Democrat in the Senate, Mark Warner, told the truth about how tough Trump has been on our adversaries, including Russia, while contrasting how weak Obama and Bush were.
"Will the mainstream media pick this up and run it 24/7? No, because it shatters their neat and mostly false narrative about Trump.
"The truth, according to Warner, is that Trump deserves credit for unleashing our ability to punch back and hit Russia and China when they overstep with certain cyber actions.
"Quotes From The Daily Wire:
"“There are two main issues: There is the integrity of the election infrastructure, and then there’s the disinformation campaigns,” Hoover said. “In your view, which is more important?”
"“I think they’re equally important and I think we have gotten better in both areas,” Warner responded.  “To give the Trump administration some credit here, [they allowed] for us to punch back in the cyber domain, which, both under Obama and Bush, we were reluctant to do.”
“ 'You just said you want to give the Trump administration credit for going on the offense in the cyber domain,” Hoover responded."

“There are reports that, in 2018, the United States took an offensive posture in cyber and actually was able to shut down Russian troll farms.”

Vile: George Conway Attacks Rep. Elise Stefanik, Calls Her ‘Lying Trash’

But even that was mild compared to the person who really flipped out, George Conway, the Never Trump husband of Kellyanne Conway, whose hatred of Trump is well-known. He lost it on her completely, calling her “lying trash.”

RedState  "Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) really lit it up with great questions of former Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch on Friday.

"Folks on the right praised her persistence, having to deal with the efforts of House Intel Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA) trying to shut her down when she was yielded time by Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), the ranking member, and then bringing out two great points when she had her own time questioning – that under the Obama administration, U.S. officials had concerns and asked questions about Hunter Biden and Burisma and defensive lethal aid was provided to Ukraine not by the Obama Administration, but by the Trump Administration.  . . ."

But the true measure of how well she did was how angry the left was in response and how she was trashed by those on the left. Literally. Here’s Lawfare Executive Editor and CNN legal analyst Susan Hennessey saying that Stefanik had “trashed” her reputation.

Dem Leader: Give Trump Credit, He’s Done More to ‘Punch Back’ at Russia Than Bush, Obama . . . "Consequently   I feel like, for many years, particularly our near-peer adversaries, like Russia and China — they were able to attack America in the cyber domain with very little fear of us punching back,” Warner concluded on the issue. “I think we’ve taken off some of those restraints. I think that is good, long term. We need to realize these challenges, particularly in the cyber domain, will be where the first shots of 21st century conflict will take place." ” . . .
