How to Talk to Your Children About Elizabeth Warren

. . . Mystified by empirical evidence, liberal women think their personal narratives make fascinating reading. After all, it’s about THEM! How do I know Trump is a monster? I’ve gained 20 pounds since his election! Their op-eds should begin, “Dear Diary” . . .  Ann Coulter

Ann Coulter  "Some people see Elizabeth Warren’s poor showing on Super Tuesday as just another Democratic hopeful losing her bid.
"I see something darker. I see the ugly heart that beats beneath our supposed “democracy.” Frankly, I’m afraid.
"Warren’s exit from the race is Brett Kavanaugh’s sneering grimace as he attempted to rape and murder Christine Blasey Ford [editor’s note: allegedly]; it is the smirks on the faces of those fascist 14-year-old anti-choice fanatics from Covington, Kentucky; it is our president constantly raping every woman in sight.
"To my children, I say, you will be OK. I won’t sugarcoat it — this is truly horrible. But once we have recovered from this devastating blow, life will go on. You will put one foot in front of the other and …
OH! IS LIFE EVEN WORTH LIVING ANYMORE???
"I know all women across America agree with me. After Warren dropped out, MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell ran “Portraits of Grief” on his nightly show, featuring some of the victims of her failed bid. Rachel Maddow raced to Massachusetts for an exclusive interview with the heroine herself.
"And The New York Times published a piece by Sarah Smarsh titled, “I Am Burning With Fury and Grief Over Elizabeth Warren. And I Am Not Alone.”
"Let me remind you, the Times is the “Newspaper of Record.”
"Some say Smarsh’s op-ed reads like a parody of sexist stereotypes — emotional, childlike, devoid of logic. I say she has proved beyond cavil that Warren’s defeat is an American holocaust.

College Professor Who Had Swine Flu Notes Key Difference in Democrat-Media Complex's Hysteria Over Wuhan Virus

Tony Branco

Matt Vespa  . . . "Yet, with Wuhan Virus being declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization, the panic will increase. It’s ridiculous. Is Wuhan serious? Yes. It’s not the Spanish flu. It’s not even Swine Flu. Prof. Jacobson knows something about the latter; he was infected and survived. And he noted that the liberal media was just as horrific in their coverage then as they are now. They blamed the GOP, just like they do now with Trump and WuFlu. Jacobson noted that the only difference between the 2009 and 2020 coverage is that this is an election year now. And the liberal media is doing the best it can to make this into Trump’s (via Legal Insurrection):. . . "

. . . "The media’s irresponsible coverage has caused the markets to drop and businesses to take unnecessary hits because of the hysteria. The liberal media has caused more damage than the Wuhan virus. The average age from someone who was killed by the Wuhan virus is 80. The elderly and the immunocompromised are and have always been the populations most at risk for death with a viral infection. The seasonal flu infects millions more each year. This year 32-49 million were infected, 560,000 were hospitalized, and 18,000-50,000 are estimated to have been killed by the flu this year. In 2009, the Swing Flu infected 60 million Americans and killed over 12,000." . . .

Iraqi Islamic Scholar Hadi Al-Modarresi Said Wuhan Virus ‘Divine Punishment’ Against Chinese, Just Got It

Weasel Zippers

Shi'ite Iraqi Islamic scholar Hadi Al-Modarresi, who is based in Qom, Iran, said in a video that was uploaded to the Internet on February 28, 2020 that the spread of coronavirus is undoubtedly an act of Allah that is divine punishment against the Chinese for their treatment, mockery, and disrespect towards Muslims and Islam. In early March, online sources reported that Al-Modarresi contracted coronavirus.

Hadi Al-Modarresi: "It is obvious that the spread of this virus is an act of Allah. How do we know this? The spread of the coronavirus began in China, an ancient and vast country, the population of which makes up one seventh of humanity. More than a billion people live in that country. The authorities in that country are tyrannical and they laid siege to more than a million Muslims and placed them under house arrest. The journalists in that country began to mock the niqab of Muslim women and they forced Muslim men to eat pork and drink wine. Allah sent a disease upon them and this disease laid siege to 40 million [Chinese people]. The same niqab that they mocked has been forced upon them, both men and women, by Allah, by means of the state authorities and officials.

[...]

"Islam forbade people from eating insects, but [the Chinese] mocked this matter. And there you have it, this disease spread from the world of animals – be it bats, ants, or snakes, the result is the same – to the human world and it has scared humanity in its entirety."

I Lived In Soviet Russia When Bernie Sanders Visited, And He’s A Communist Dupe

Bernie Sanders Is Hopelessly Naive

Tony Branco

The Federalist

Bernie Sanders, a man who could be led astray so easily by KGB minders and a Potemkin tour of the USSR, should never be president of the United States.

"Democratic presidential front-runner Bernie Sanders likes to market himself as a wise old man who just happens to have clown hair but is right about everything, such as the War in Iraq. Yet his opposition to the Iraq War was dictated not by cool-headed geopolitical calculations, but the lifelong habit of romancing American enemies — as is typical for communism-lovers.
"The recently surfaced press conference Sanders gave following his return from his honeymoon in Yaroslavl, USSR, is a great example of leftist naïveté about totalitarian regimes. For Bernie to fawn over Soviet culture the way he did indicates a staggering degree of incuriosity. I was only 15 and growing up in Kharkiv, now Ukraine, when the couple visited the USSR, and I’m not impressed when I watch Sanders sing Moscow’s praises
"Start with the metro. Sanders said at the time, “The stations themselves were very beautiful, including many works of art, chandeliers that were beautiful. It was a very, very effective system.”
"It’s slightly creepy that Joseph Stalin initiated the tradition of building chthonian palaces underneath Soviet cities. The stations are beautiful, no doubt, but effectiveness is a whole different matter. Coverage was so-so, and the rush hour commute was a nightmare, so Sanders’ classification of the stations as “effective” is puzzling. People stuffed into trains like sardines.
"More importantly, metros were only built in cities with populations exceeding one million. Investing money into extravagant projects makes sense if the goal is to dazzle foreigners, but it’s also highly unwise considering that the condition of roads across Russia has always been atrocious. Traveling in the USSR, especially in provincial towns such as Yaroslavl, Sanders, an American man with a driver license, would take note of the state of the infrastructure — one would think." . . .

. . . "After moving to the United States, I no longer believe Bernie-types to be well-intentioned. Regardless, the man who could be led astray that easily should never be the president of the United States." . . .

Sharyl Attkisson: 6 questions we should be asking about coronavirus

Sharyl Attkisson

Coronavirus Image from: CDC

. . . "One death is too many — and with careful management and a lot of luck, the coronavirus sweeping the globe will be curbed, in terms of illness and loss of life. But in the heat of the moment, difficult questions have been raised that will persist beyond the current crisis. Here are six of them:

"Is self-quarantining good enough?

"Everyone would like to believe that anyone possibly exposed to a serious contagious disease would comply with self-quarantine requirements. But history teaches a different lesson. We need only look at TV personality Nancy Snyderman, a medical doctor who violated her Ebola self-quarantine in 2014. She had agreed to observe a voluntary 21-day quarantine in her New Jersey home after reporting in Liberia, where a photographer on her team contracted Ebola. Yet, Snyderman was spotted getting takeout soup from a local restaurant. (Continued…)

Hillary Clinton: The Most Investigated Innocent Person in America?

Why this epic rehash? Let's guess that Clinton thinks she should be running for reelection right now, and she wants all eyes back on her. Just like her nemesis former President Richard Nixon, she's always seeking to rehabilitate her image. Just like Nixon, she never will.  Tim Graham*

Paul S. Gardiner  "Hillary Rodham Clinton recently claimed that she is the most investigated innocent person in America.  Really?  No doubt, many of her supporters and admirers readily agree with her."... 
. . . ".Hillary Rodham Clinton most certainly is not the "most investigated innocent person in America."  Rather, she is a person who believes she is above the law and is being overly hounded by her political enemies.  If Mrs. Clinton is not fully held accountable for her actions described herein, there is no such thing as "no one is above the law" in America.  Furthermore, failing to hold Mrs. Clinton accountable establishes a dangerous precedent for others entrusted with highly classified government information to act in the same or similar manner with little or no fear of retribution.

Notwithstanding other potential criminal actions, it is truly time to hold Mrs. Clinton fully accountable for her failure to dutifully protect and secure highly classified communications entrusted to her care while serving as secretary of state.  These actions might be considered the "low-hanging fruit" that finally will allow justice to prevail in Mrs. Clinton's case.  Attorney General Barr, please take note.

Paul S. Gardiner is a retired Army officer, Vietnam veteran, and lover of America.  He is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the University of Alabama, and the United States Army War College.

*Who Needs an Epic Rehash of Hillary's Victimhood?  . . . "Every Clinton scandal is dismissed, if it's even mentioned. Whitewater was "ridiculous." Filegate and Travelgate are mentioned once in passing. The $100,000 she made in cattle futures in Little Rock, Arkansas, is never mentioned, even though the filmmakers show the 1994 press conference she put on to "explain" it. Benghazi? There was "nothing there." There was no time for The Clinton Foundation or Uranium One. Her private email server? Why bother?" . . .
. . . "Paula Jones was a story "nobody wanted to touch"; it was "icky." Juanita Broaddrick's allegations of rape against Bill Clinton? Never mentioned. A picture of then-candidate Donald Trump's press conference with Jones, Broaddrick and Kathleen Willey in 2016 was shown, but their names were not mentioned. It was simply referenced as "Trump pulled his stunt."

Hillary said she “dodged sniper fire” in Bosnia. I was there and knew that wasn’t true.
. . . "Today, that 2008 campaign tale that I reported on for CBS News remains one of the biggest election false claims of our time and one that I am still frequently asked about today." . . .

DEW Bottled Water Fatal Poisoning Hoax (2011)

 . . . "Circulating message warns consumers not to drink any bottled water called “DEW” because it contains a poisonous chemical that has already killed 180 people in Nigeria. A new version claims that the water contains Ebola.  
Brief Analysis
"The claims in the warning message are false. Nigerian authorities have refuted the claims. There are no credible reports of deaths caused by a brand of bottled water called “DEW” in Nigeria or elsewhere. And the claim that people have died from bottled water contaminated with Ebola is utter nonsense. The warning contains false information and should not be forwarded." . . . More...

The Never Trump Response to Joe Biden Exploding and Threatening a Voter Is Just Incredible

Tony Branco

Red State  "As I reported earlier today, Joe Biden lost his mind while interacting with a union worker in Michigan. He managed to curse multiple times at the man, jab his finger in his face, threaten to slap the guy, and challenge him to “go outside.”
"Because he’s a Democrat, the media response was muted. We didn’t see a myriad of op-eds (well, CNN did post one in support of what Biden did) chastising Biden’s temperament or inability to make a coherent point. This follows a pattern of excuse-making for or outright ignoring Joe Biden’s mental decline on the campaign trail.
"But what about the Never Trumpers? Given their previous proclamations about decorum and decency, surely they took Biden to task for losing his cool and threatening to assault a voter, right? 

Read the twit's tweets here.

"Nah, they are either deflecting or outright endorsing what Biden did.

What could Jill Biden be thinking?

"Ah yes, Biden has only “lost his fastball” or something. Conversely, French is making a ridiculous attempt to whitewash how insane what the former Vice President did while making a desperate attempt to deflect to Trump. Biden didn’t just flub a word here and French knows it.
" 'But here’s the thing. The President has never gotten in a voter’s face, yelled cuss words at them, and then challenged them to a fight. That’s something too insane for even Trump to do. Further, it shouldn’t even matter who’s previously done what. If French and others are really as principled as they say they are, they should call balls and strikes here, not rush to point at the nearest squirrel." . . .

CNN's Ana Navarro-Cárdenas

After Biden verbally abuses a voter, the Democrats celebrate him  . . . "What none of these people understand is that Trump always punches either up or against his own weight. That's why his targets are the media, which buy pixels by the barrel, or politicians. Biden punched down. His attacks on a voter were the equivalent of being the big fifth-grader who beats up a kindergartner for lunch money. It wasn’t tough; it was bullying.

"Still, Biden’s campaign spokesman tried his best to spin the event as evidence of Biden’s “no malarkey” promise:" . . . . " Ana Navarro-Cárdenas, a rabidly anti-Trump CNN employee, was very excited about Biden’s words and used them to try to cast shade on Trump." . . .

Did Biden "have his fast ball" when he did this in Ukraine?  "An affidavit from a Ukrainian prosecutor says former Vice President Joe Biden wanted him removed because of an investigation into Burisma Holdings, where Biden’s son, Hunter, had a seat on the board of directors.

‘You’re Full Of Sh**’: Biden Gets Into Shouting Match With Auto Worker Over Guns

But Biden has always come out against what he calls "assault weapons". His saying he is wanting to "go outside " with that worker I'd say was a worse thing. TD

Daily Caller  "Former Vice President Joe Biden was videotaped shouting at an auto worker about guns during a campaign stop in Michigan Tuesday.

"The audio in the video is not clear, but at one point the former vice president can be heard yelling about “AR-14’s,” and telling a Michigan voter that he’s “full of shit.”
. . . 
“ 'I support the 2nd Amendment,” Biden said. ” The 2nd Amendment, just like right now if you yell fire, that’s not free speech. I have a shotgun…my son’s hunt. I’m not taking your guns away at all.' ”
. . . 

"The Democratic presidential front-runner has made gun control a signature part of his campaign platform, and falsely claimed during a Democratic debate last month that 150 million people have been killed by guns in the past 13 years.
“ 'One hundred fifty million people have been killed since 2007,” Biden said at the time. “More than all the wars, including Vietnam, from that point on. Carnage on our streets.” . . .

After Joe Biden Threatens to Slap Detroit Auto Worker and the Media Tells Us This Makes Biden Look ‘Terrific’

Bernie and the Democrats: who dares believe a word they say?

Isn't Antifa's stated mission to attack Bernie's beliefs wherever they perceive them to be manifested? What about Bernie working with anti-semites while President Trump honors the Jewish state by placing the US embassy in Jerusalem?

Andrea Widburg  "Of late, Bernie has been making a big push about his being Jewish.  He's doing this because of concerns about the anti-Semites with whom he surrounds himself and his hostility to Israel.  On Monday, he undercut his own "I'm a proud Jew" message when he took on Phillip Agnew, a rabid anti-Semite and America-hater, as his newest senior adviser.
"Bernie's efforts to appear philo-Semitic arise from the fact that Judaism, unlike any other religion, has not only doctrinal components, but also genetic and cultural aspects.  Jews are a race because their genes identify them as Jewish.  Jews are undoubtedly a religion, as evidenced by the fact that millions of Jews live their lives to a greater or lesser extent in accordance with the Torah.  And finally, Jews are a culture, one that is distinct from other cultures and that is not dependent on religious worship or even on genetic Jewishness.  (Trump, for example, has a decidedly Jewish sense of humor.)
"Bernie is genetically Jewish.  He and his followers wield like a shield the fact that he had relatives who died in the Holocaust.  Bernie has an accent one associates with Jews raised in Brooklyn, and he undoubtedly is comfortable with some Yiddish expressions and probably likes chicken soup with matzoh balls (but who doesn't?).
"But what Bernie does not have is a religious or cultural affinity for Judaism.  As a socialist, he's hostile to religion.  As a communist, he's hostile to the world's only Jewish state.  During his three months in Israel, he lived on a kibbutz so Marxist and unsupportive of the Jewish state that Bernie, for many years, refused to name it.  Bernie is a Jew in genes only.  Nothing more.
"And like so many Jews who have turned against their lineage and their faith, Bernie is an anti-Semite.  The self-loathing Jew is a stereotype rooted in fact.  Other famous self-loathing Jews are Karl Marx, Noam Chomsky, and George Soros.  They are all dangerous people who use their troubled inner battles to damage other Jews.
"American Jews, even progressive Jews, are beginning to notice Bernie's anti-Semitism, and Bernie needs to win them back.  That's how we get ads like this:  Much more here

Sanders Rally Features Imam Who Claimed ‘Connection’ Between Israel and ISIS

Joe Biden isn’t much better, but the doom of Bernie Sanders’ campaign looms

FWST  "Backstage at a 1999 New Hampshire rally for his son, George H.W. Bush told me he knew two weeks before the 1992 election that he would lose to Bill Clinton. How in the world do you keep going? “Well,” he said, “you can’t just give up. You have to keep trying. And in politics, you never know what might happen.”
"That still holds true today. We don’t know what might happen before this year’s mid-July Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee. However, we’re getting pretty ominous indications of what’s ahead for Sen. Bernie Sanders’ campaign for that party’s presidential nomination.
"It’s in trouble, serious trouble.
"Sanders is an old pro, very old. He’s spent virtually his entire career on a public payroll running for one office or another. And he knows trouble when he smells it.
"Of course, like Bush, he can’t admit the outlook publicly. That’s self-defeating. And being the front-runner, as former Vice President Joe Biden is now, has been a perilous place of late.
"So instead, Sanders talks about how close he and Biden are in delegate counts at this point, which is true. At least before the remainder of this month’s cascade of 1,100 delegate selections. Entering this week, Biden had 664 delegates, a third of what he needs to be the Democrat who faces Donald Trump on Nov. 3. Sanders is only 91 behind.
"But this time, Sanders is running behind his 2016 successes. All along, Sanders has been promising he can “expand turnout in a way that few other Democratic candidates can.' ” . . .

Sanders Responds to Clip of Hillary Trashing Him

Bernie claims to be honest and forthright, but he dodges penetrating questions as well as any other slippery politician, to youthful cheers of his audience.TD

Leah Barkoukis  "Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders responded to Hillary Clinton trashing him in the Hulu documentary, “Hillary”—saying he’s living in the present unlike her.
"Sanders’s response came during a Fox News town hall with Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum after the moderators played the clip.

"Bernie just drove me crazy," Clinton says in the documentary. "He was in Congress for years. Years. He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him. He got nothing done."
"She added: "He was a career politician. He had—he did not work until he was like 41 and then he got elected to something. It was all just baloney and I feel so bad that you know, people got sucked into it."
"As the crowd booed loudly, MacCallum said, “That’s strong stuff. What’s your reaction?”

" 'Unlike Secretary Clinton, I don’t want to relive 2016. We’re in 2020 now," he replied."But, what I would say on a good day is my wife likes me," Sanders added. "But also, if you guys look at some of the polling they do for United States senators, in most cases I turn out to be the most popular senator in the country.' " . . .
