Libs apoplectic after Louie Gohmert dares to call alleged whistleblower by name at hearing

BPR

"Democrats are feigning outrage after Republican Congressman Louie Gohmert called the alleged Ukraine “whistleblower” by name during a televised House Judiciary Committee impeachment hearing last night.
"Gohmert dropped the alleged whistleblower’s name during his opening statement, when he said Eric Ciaramella and others should be questioned as fact witnesses.
"Gohmert said:  “Abuse of power [and] obstruction of Congress — the very things the majority has done in preventing us from having the witnesses that could shed light on this. We needed to hear from those witnesses — people like Sean Misko, Abigail Grace, Eric Ciaramella, Devin Archer, Joe Biden, Nellie Ohr, Alexandra Chalupa — and so many others.”
“ '[Democrats] don’t want fact witnesses,” Gohmert said. “Instead, let’s hear from professors who hate Donald Trump.”
"Keep in mind that Gohmert did not specifically say who the alleged whistleblower was. But many leftists already know the Democratic operative’s identity because the whistleblower’s name is an open secret — and has been for months." . . .

Eric Ciaramella Isn’t a Whistleblower! He’s a Leaker!

Rush Limbaugh: "One of those two people is the whistleblower, folks. I’ll let you take your pick. His name is Eric Ciaramella. Everybody knows it. Everybody knows who he is. He worked with McMaster. He’s worked with Brennan. He’s worked at the CIA. He’s an Obama holdover in the Trump White House. He’s the guy that somebody told about the phone call. Then this guy called Schiff. The whistleblower called Schiff, said, “I got this thing here.” And Schiff walked him through it. I don’t even think that was legit. I think that was structured."

Report: Full House Expected to Vote on Impeachment Wednesday

Breitbart

"The full House of Representatives is expected to vote Wednesday on whether to impeach President Donald Trump for his contacts with Ukraine, a Democrat leadership aide told NBC News.
"The same aide said the House is likely to vote on legislation to fund the government on Tuesday and the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USCMA) on Thursday, but the schedule is not set in stone."

A Democratic leadership aide tells NBC that next schedule is shaping up to week's House floor vote look like this:

Tuesday, 12/17: Government funding voteWednesday, 12/18: Impeachment voteThursday, 12/19: USCMA vote *Schedule subject to change.

. . . "Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) introduced an amendment to strike the abuse of power charge, but the panel struck it down 23-17.

“ '[The charge] ignores the truth. It ignores the facts, It ignores what happened and what has been laid out for the American people over the last three weeks,” Jordan said."

Is CNN beginning to reform itself after ratings tumble by double digits during impeachment coverage?

In 2018 I saw this assessment of news sources in a Ventura, CA school handout. TD

Thomas Lifson  "Something extraordinary happened yesterday: CNN’s fact-checkers called out lies by Democrat Reps. Sheila Jackson Lee and Veronica Escobar, twofer victim class members as female and  minorities.  Compounding the shock, the lies were about President Trump and aimed at impeaching the mother****r, as their Democrat colleague Rashida Tlaib put it so memorably following her election.

Brian Stelter

"Bronson Stocking of Townhall noticed the break with CNN’s existing editorial orientation:

In order to impeach the president, Democrats have to lie about the facts. It has now come to the point where even CNN is calling the Democrats out on their lies. 

Two Democratic representatives from Texas, Veronica Escobar and Sheila Jackson Lee, both lied during debate on articles of impeachment on Thursday about what President Trump said during his phone call to the president of Ukraine.

Rep. Escobar said President Trump told President Zelensky, "I want you to do me a favor though." 

Rep. Jackson Lee quoted Trump saying, "I would like you to do a favor though."

What Trump actually said was "I would like you to do us a favor though because our country has been through a lot." The full quote makes it clear that Trump was asking the president of Ukraine to do "our country" a favor. 

"Keep in mind that CNN has meticulously kept its viewers ignorant of most things that would cast an unfavorable light on the efforts to impeach (or even say something positive about) President Trump. The network did not carry IG Horowitz’s testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee, for instance.

"So, this bit of fact-checking is worth noticing, even if it didn’t happen on-air, but rather in CNN’s online Fact check:" . . .

Is CNN management finally starting to realize that they are committing slow motion suicide with their biased news coverage? Implicitly, the network has been counting on impeachment coverage to lift its ratings out the cellar, but it isn’t working out that way, but rather exactly the opposite.

No matter as long as these people are there at CNN. Their intentions and motives must be always in suspect.

The Thunbergians: our world's fastest growing sect

The Fate of Secular Saint Greta Thunberg  "After seeing the cover for Time magazine’s “Person of the Year” award, who can still pretend the Left is irreligious?  It is clear Time has officially sainted Thunberg.  After all, the magazine proclaims, “By clarifying an abstract danger with piercing outrage, Thunberg became the most compelling voice on the most important issue facing the planet.”

"Thunberg -- for now at least -- has become the secular equivalent of Joan of Arc, whose portraits and statues are depicted with a similar expression denoting transcendent holiness. 

"One suspects that in a very short time, St. Greta will invite St. Joan's fate. No, she won't suffer a literal execution, but she will be "executed" nonetheless; and by the same crowd that currently is elevating her to sainthood." . . .

. . . "Eventually, the now maniacally devoted followers who presently adore her will become diverted by other Pied Pipers and begin to wander away, leaving her alone with only her abstractions for company." . . .

Inspired by the above news,The Babylon Bee, now rated above CNN as "the most trusted name in news", files these critical reports:

‘My party has turned me into a Democrat for Trump’: an American disgusted with impeachment

The BL (The Beauty of Life)

“After watching the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, that was the most disgusting thing I’ve seen. Now, we have this impeachment crap. My party has now made me a Democrat for Trump,” Jason said over the phone in a C-SPAN program released on Dec. 11."

. . . "He then stated that he would support President Donald Trump and that when the time was right he would also vote for the Republican candidate.
"As the discredited impeachment process against Trump progresses, more and more people become outraged, as can be seen in the comments added under the video tweeted by @CalebJHull about Jason’s call, and they say Democrats let them down." . . .

What do other Democrats consider when they learn things like this? 

 14yr Old Boy VICIOUSLY Attacked on School Bus Because He Supports Trump

Watch the video of the incident

"Behold the offspring of the tolerant Left… 🙄 This 14 yr old boy, Tyler, was viciously attacked because he wore a Trump hat to school, where earlier in the day these MONSTERS poured milk on his head.

"Watch it again understand that according to Tyler’s mother (@AmericanDiaries) it’s only 21 secs of a longer video, but more importantly the pure rage coming from these unhinged violent Leftist kids. They didn’t learn to behave like this on their own, they learned it and are encouraged by their parents as well as those they “look up to”. Seeing this kind of rage is all too common, being committed by unhinged violent Leftists* YOUNG or OLD. You NEVER see videos like this of conservatives ganging up on a Leftist adult let alone a kid." . . .

We hope Maxine Waters and Rashida Tlaib can be reached for comment.

Out Heroding Herod

The American Catholic

"News that I missed, courtesy of The Babylon Bee:"

 NEW YORK, NY—At a special ceremony Thursday, Planned Parenthood posthumously awarded Herod the Great with its highest honor, the organization’s coveted PPFA Margaret Sanger Award.

Planned Parenthood gives the award out to individuals who advance the pro-abortion agenda, and baby-murdering King Herod was the obvious choice.

“Herod fought bravely for women’s rights by slaughtering all the male babies under two years old,” said a Planned Parenthood spokesperson. “He was thousands of years ahead of his time, realizing the progressive value of destroying our kids the moment they become inconvenient millennia before it was popular. Yes, we do wish he had slaughtered the daughters too, but we’re willing to overlook that as this brave women’s rights warrior advanced the pro-abortion agenda significantly.”

King Herod was not available to accept the award, as he is dead. But his ideological successor, Alyssa Milano, accepted it in his honor. “If Herod were here, I know exactly what he would say,” Milano said in her acceptance speech. “He would remind us all that it was his kingdom, his choice.”

 "Go here to read the rest.  Herod of course is a piker to Planned Parenthood.  They exceed his body toll on their slowest day of the year."

More reasons to impeach President Trump

Weasel Zippers  "How completely unhinged Democrats have become in this Impeachment hearing?
"Member of the Judiciary Committee Hank Johnson (D-GA) just said Impeachment is justified because:
"Trump taller than Prez. Zelensky"
Plus this witty comment:
"Trump had Zelensky's daughter "in the basement duck taped'"
"WHAT!" Video here

Congressional Hits and Misses: Best of Hank Johnson. Perhaps not a laughing matter; are  all these signs of the aging process?

His defense of Kaepernick: . . . "When asked further, he suggested that Congress might do something about the situation.
“ 'I think it’s merited … you’ve got a league-wide ban on Kaepernick back over the last three years” because he protested during the national anthem before games.

“ 'Kaepernick is a victim,” he stressed."

Nothing but downsides to the Jersey City kosher market murders

Rashida Tlaib: Blames Jersey City Terror on ‘White Supremacy’ Before Deleting Tweet  . . . "Tlaib deleted the tweet, but not before a number of quick-eyed reporters had caught screenshots of the faux pas.
"The Congresswoman was photographed this past January with Abbas Hamideh, a supporter of the Hezbollah terrorist organization. Just three months ago she also posed for a photo with the Palestine Youth Movement, which advocates violence against Israel and strongly supports the Boycott, Divest and Sanctions (BDS) economic war against the Jewish State." . . .This profane video was made while the victims still lay in their own blood

Another person said to the Jewish support representative, “It was your kind that did it here, right? … Four of ya’ll dead, right? Four of your people that were dead, right? That’s great. If they was dead, they got shot dead. That’s great. Get them damn Jews the f****k out of here. Get these f*****g Jews. Get the Jews out of Jersey City.”

 How many Muslims were among the Black bystanders blaming Jews for the attack on a Kosher deli where three Jews were deliberately shot dead?

Black Nationalist Hate Group Praised by Media Shot Up Kosher Market

. . . "The odd accent to city life in Jersey City came amid a hail of bullets as two members of the racist black nationalist hate group opened fire in the JC Supermarket. Despite initial claims by the media and the authorities that the Jewish market had not been targeted, David Anderson and Francine Graham ignored passerby on Martin Luther King Dr, to get to the store and kill as many Jewish people as they could.

"When the shooting had ended, Moshe Hersh Deutsch, a yeshiva student who was known for helping distribute food packages to the needy, Mrs Leah Mindel Ferencz, a mother of 3 who helped her husband run the grocery store, and Miguel Jason Rodriguez, the father of an 11-year-old daughter and a parishioner at an Assemblies of God church, were all dead."

. . . "The media whitewash of the racist Black Israelites had come during the Covington Catholic case when the Washington Post, among other papers, had falsely blamed the pro-life students for a confrontation that actually began when members of the nationalist hate group had begun calling them, “crackers,” “faggots,” and “pedophiles.” An African-American pro-life student was called the ‘n-word’.

"Rep. Ilhan Omar, who has her own history of racism and anti-Semitism, falsely claimed that the Covington Catholic students were “taunting 5 black men.' ” . . .

Trump Wins His First State — Judge Rules South Carolina Can Cancel Its 2020 Primary

Analyzing America

"On Wednesday, the South Carolina Republican Party’s conclusion to not hold a 2020 Presidential primary has been confirmed and upheld.
"This will make it even more difficult for less prominent candidates who are pushing to win against Trump.
"The resolution was upheld by Circuit Judge Jocelyn Newman, who said the law “does not give Plaintiffs a legal right to a presidential preference primary, and the Court will not substitute its own judgment for that of the General Assembly or the SCGOP.”
"Bob Inglis, former South Carolina congressmen sued state Republicans, claiming this decision to skip the primary, strips him and other likely candidates “of the ability to vote for the candidate of their choice in South Carolina’s famous (and particularly influential) ‘First in the South’ primary.”

SEE IT: Street Artist Sabo Trolls Impeachment Hoaxes: ‘Adam Schiff Is Cancer’

The Street Artist returns  "Street artist Sabo has returned to troll the Democrats with an anti-smoking-themed poster illustrating the absurdity at the heart of whatever impeachment hoax the party chooses to make the cause celebre of the moment. Take a look:

"Erected at the corner of Santa Monica Blvd and Kelton near the 405 freeway in Los Angeles, California, Sabo and his merry band of trolls appropriated an American Lung Association billboard displaying the number of smoking-related deaths this year. As the photos will show, the original sign read, “Smoking Deaths This Year: 415, 949 and counting”; once Sabo had his way with it, however, the sign then read, “Impeachment Hoaxes This Year: 415, 949 and counting,” which was then followed by the explosive caption, “Adam Schiff is cancer.” . . . 

Democrat Mean Girls 2020

Deplorable Housewives

"I sat through those hearings. Brett Kavanaugh lied to the U.S. Senate and most importantly to the American people. He was put on the Court through a sham process and his place on the Court is an insult to the pursuit of truth and justice."

. . . "Kelly Mehlenbacher, a state operations director with the Harris campaign wrote in her November 11th resignation letter that was obtained by the New York Times, “…the treatment of the staff over the last two weeks was the final straw in this very difficult decision.”
. . . "Mehlenbacher said the Harris campaign encouraged people to move to the Washington, D.C./Baltimore area and then laid them off without notice and without thoughtful consideration of their personal consequences or the consequences of their absence on the staff who remained with the campaign."

Kamala Harris‏Verified account 

I sat through those hearings. Brett Kavanaugh lied to the U.S. Senate and most importantly to the American people. He was put on the Court through a sham process and his place on the Court is an insult to the pursuit of truth and justice. He must be impeached.

"Harris isn’t the only Mean Girl in search of the Oval Office.
"Remember Amy Klobuchar’s staffer who claimed that she mistreats her staff? . . .The story goes that the airline which Klobuchar was traveling did not have any utensils on board, so the resourceful senator ate her salad with her own comb. Ick! After she finished eating her salad, she ordered the staffer to clean off the comb.
"Employees spoke on the condition of anonymity about the toxic environment at Klobuchar’s offices, which included demeaning emails, throwing office supplies and requesting staff to perform degrading personal chores for the senator. In fact, she is so mean to the people who work for her that even former senate majority leader Harry Reid (D-NV) had to rebuke Klobuchar for the mistreatment of her staff. You know Klobuchar’s behavior had to be bad when someone as nasty as Reid had to give her a talking to."

She had to get a niceness tutorial from Harry Reid?

The Democrats’ Bad Poker Faces

Power Line  Everyone who plays poker is familiar with the “tell,” that is, a nervous tic or subtle mannerism that betrays when a player has a strong or bluff hand. I think the Democrats’ behavior this week includes several “tells” that their impeachment hand is weak, and might cause them to lose the whole political pot next year.
"The first is the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) that John notes immediately below. It was a big surprise Tuesday when Speaker Pelosi said the House was now ready to take up and presumably approve the new agreement, after months of delay. It may be true that the Trump Administration has made significant concessions for various special interests to gain support, but its passage will still be a large political win for Trump heading into the election campaign.
"The second “tell” of the week are the two articles of impeachment themselves. As Andy McCarthy notes, they are exceedingly weak: an improper use of power in his Ukraine phone call, and obstruction of the congressional investigation. That’s it? That’s all they got? Why only two? Why not throw in the obstruction of justice vibe of the Mueller Report? Why not an emoluments allegation, or something else? Previous presidential impeachment drives (Nixon and Clinton) involved at least four possible articles.
"My hunch is that additional articles of impeachment would allow for more House Democrats from marginal districts to cover themselves by voting against one or two or them, and Pelosi needs to hold her caucus together to get a successful vote. There are several House Democrats who have indicated their lack of enthusiasm for the whole thing, and some calling for a mere resolution of censure instead. (The Constitution does not provide for censure against another branch, however, though it still might be politically effective for Democrats to charge next fall that Trump is “the only president ever censured by Congress.” Also, it should be added that the Judiciary Committee didn’t really devote sufficient time to backing up additional charges: they’re putting all their impeachment eggs into the Ukraine basket.)
