Carly Fiorina Betrays America

How on earth can Fiorina align herself with Democrats like Maxine Waters?

Lloyd Marcus  "Four years ago, my wife Mary and I followed the Ted Cruz for President campaign state to state, working to secure Cruz as the GOP nominee. Carly Fiorina was Cruz's running mate for vice president. I had my picture taken with her at one of the numerous campaign events. Little did I know Fiorina would prove to be another soulless politician, announcing she will vote for Democrat Joe Biden for president. 
     "My definition of a soulless politician is someone who simply views politics as a business. I first ran into this mindset many years ago at a cocktail party. While he chewed an hors d'oeuvre, a gentleman said he ran for a political seat as a Republican and lost. Without missing a beat, he said next time he will run as a Democrat because Democrats offered him more campaign money. I was stunned. Republicans and Democrats have different core beliefs and values. Naively, I thought, “How can someone run as a Republican and then run as a Democrat simply for more money?” Clearly, this guy was ideologically soulless. He was only interested in furthering his political career.
     "Hearing Fiorina speak at numerous events on the campaign trail, I was convinced that she was one of us; a true patriot and lover of conservative principles and values which have made America great.
     "How on earth can Fiorina vote for Joe Biden for president? Everyone knows Biden in the White House means the end of religious liberty -- open borders for illegals -- implementation of the insane Green New Deal -- the murder of healthy babies after they are born -- the collapse of our economy due to overreaching regulations – government-controlled healthcare with death panels -- allowing Marxists to wreak havoc with impunity – extreme redistribution of wealth, and an ever-growing list of draconian unconstitutional government mandates. Electing Biden would usher in the end of America as founded.
     "Carly Fiorina is not stupid. Therefore, her personal hatred for Trump obviously overrides her doing the right thing for America. Only a very small person would do such a horrible thing to their country. Carly, you should be ashamed of yourself. I thought better of you.
Brothers and sisters, we are Americans. It is time we take back our country. "

Five Common Threads Between China's Red Guard and Antifa

PJ Media

"Ain't I a chick magnet?"
     "For the past year I have been watching videos of the antics and riots between antifa and everyone they don’t like. (And if you don’t identify totally with antifa, antifa definitely is against you, no matter what your politics are.) As I’ve been studying their beliefs and tactics it occurred to me that they were imitating the communist agitators of years past, particularly of the Red Guard in the Chinese Revolution.
     "When you understand how the Red Guard ran almost unchecked throughout China and virtually destroyed that nation during that time, and you see the similarities between those communists and antifa, it is easy to realize that the “antifa” that is currently creating havoc could certainly be a real and serious threat to our liberty in a constitutional republic.
     "While the two groups are not exactly identical, currently I see four common threads between the Red Guard and antifa:" . . .   Full article here

Trump’s Base Remains Solid As Political Tide Turns

Right now, the race should not be the deadlock that Zogby found.  Biden desperately needs it to not be.  Biden needs a buffer now for the already turning political tides.  It is clear Trump’s base is rock-solid.  It has yet to be proved how much of one Biden has, let alone whether it will be there in November.  
Issues & Insights  "Despite 2020’s tough start, Trump’s base remains solid, which bodes well for his November.  National polls have recently shown a widening Biden lead; considering the current political environment, this is not surprising.  What is surprising is how well Trump has held up, and how well it positions him as political tides turn.  
"The current Real Clear Politics average of national presidential polling gives Biden a 50.1% to 41.3% lead less than five months from November’s election.  This fits conventional expectations that 2020’s rough first half is damaging the president’s re-election chances.  However, looking inside these national polls reveals a crucial shortcoming: They are not polling those most likely to vote.
"Of the eleven national polls making up RCP’s average, ten sampled “registered” voters, not “likely” voters.  Registered voter polls are historically less accurate and over-represent Democrats in their results. 
"One likely voter poll not included in RCP’s average is Zogby’s recent one (conducted 6/1-6/2 of 1,007 likely voters) which has Trump and Biden deadlocked at 46% apiece.  "Everything in Zogby’s was not perfect for the president; his approval/disapproval rating was negative — 48% approve/51% disapprove.  However, as Zogby noted: “During this almost exact moment at the end of Barack Obama’s first term, his job approval numbers were very similar…48% approve/50% disapprove.” . . .

2020 Election Will Be a Contest of the Angry

Victor Davis Hanson  . . . "The internet is aflame with self-appointed sleuths. They scour hours of video and millions of words, searching for an indiscreet past remark — as fodder to take out a political opponent, a rival for a job, or a personal enemy.

"The people’s energy, tranquilized by a two-month national quarantine and the terror of the coronavirus, has suddenly exploded in both massive protests and silent seething at the lawlessness. 
'The result is that for good or evil, the 2020 election is no longer really about Biden and Trump, Democratic or Republican policies, or progressive and conservative agendas.
"No, it is now about America as it has been before May 2020 — always flawed, but constantly improving, and not perfect but far better than the alternatives — and what has now followed.
"Much of the country believes that America is racist, cruel, and incapable of self-correction of its so-called original sins — without a radical erasure of much of its past history, traditions, and customs.
"It sees occasional violence as a necessary stimulant of long-overdue change. It increasingly argues that the American founding’s focus on liberty and freedom was selfish and incompatible with social justice and equality.
"Racism, the protesting left says, is in the American DNA. It finally requires massive cutting, chemotherapy, and radiation — treatment that deservedly will sicken and may even kill the host.
"The other half of the country will vote to preserve what is under attack. They feel that the dreamy world of the demonstrators and rioters is an Orwellian vision far worse than the present reality that they are protesting.
"America in their view is the world’s only large, successful multiracial democracy. It is the dream destination of the world’s immigrants — precisely because its ancient institutions adapt and change for the better, but only if they are preserved and allowed to work.
"The angry and the demonstrating are loud and visible; their opponents are angry and quiet.
"The election will reveal not just who is more numerous — but sadly also who is the angriest."

Why are not even liberals angry at the contemptible Democrats of the House Judiciary Committee as they made every effort to destroy the life and family of Judge Brett Kavanaugh?

Leftist Minstrel Show: Self-abasing protestors mostly white, and blacks are starting to laugh

Monica Showalter   "Anti-racism protests, which form the backdrop of the violence, desecration and looting going on around the U.S., are starting to look just a little bit strange to some black people." . . .
Referring to actions such as "changing names, toppling statues, [and] firing professors because they said all lives matter," Johnson explained that "it just shows to me that white America is continually ... incapable of recognizing that black people have their own ideas and thought about what's in their best interests."He suggested that black people should be consulted before people take actions like tearing down statues or firing someone for a comment they have made."Give us the belief that you respect our opinion. You go out and do something and destroy something, fire somebody because you think it hurts us. Why don't you ask us first if it hurts us before you go and say 'Oh, I gotta do something for the negroes to make them feel better.' Well ask us if we want you to do that to make us feel better," he said.

. . . "Call it a minstrel show of whites, designed to win redemption from blacks, but in reality, ending up entertaining blacks, or at least making them laugh.

Denver Homeowners’ Association Bans Police Chaplain's Thin Blue Line Flag, Calling It a 'White Lives Matter' Symbol

PJ Media  "A Denver homeowners’ association has ordered a local police chaplain to remove the “thin blue line” flag from his property, even while allowing neighbors to fly similar flags for other first responders and the military.
"The chaplain, who wishes to remain anonymous for sadly obvious reasons, has flown his Thin Blue Line flag since National Police Officers Day in May.
"He told Fox News 31’s Deborah Takahara earlier this week, “I believe that’s why I’m being targeted — because I’m associated with them. I believe it’s just because it’s everything going on in the world right now, in this country.”
"The notice from his HOA insisted that the well-known flag flown to show support for all police officers is actually a “white lives matter” symbol.
"Or as our mysterious chaplain said, “There’s nothing about racism at all there. It’s simply saying, ‘We stand for you. You continue to do all the great things you do’.”
“ 'I serve with so many different officers of so many different ethnic backgrounds. I’ve shared it with them. This isn’t a white lives, this is a blue lives matter because they do.' ” . . .

Whose Lives Matter in America?

In Washington Obama is feared, not loved; no one dares to cross him. It’s the Chicago Way.

http://www.terrellaftermath.com/
Obama and his Gang of Untouchables   . . . "The term “The Untouchables” referred not to the Chicago mafia but to Eliot Ness’ incorruptible gang of cops. In the Obama era, however, that term is flipped on its head. It applies to the former president himself and his own sort of mob—a broad syndicate of henchmen, including corrupt cops, who continue to serve their Don and enrich themselves in the process. Barack Obama still calls the shots and pulls the strings while his goombahs in the news media, federal government, and Democratic Party carry out his orders. 
“ 'If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said in 2008, cribbing Connery’s line, during his first campaign for president. It was a warning that the Chicago-machine raised politician would use any weapon at his disposal to defeat his foes—which is exactly what he did.
"And it’s the reason why to this day, Obama and his consigliere, Joe Biden, escape any culpability for the biggest shakedown in U.S. political history—the attempted hit on Donald Trump. After getting away with what would have been presidency-ending scandals for anyone else—illegal gun-running in Mexico, intimidating Tea Party activists with the IRS, shipping billions to Iranian mullahs, and lying about a terrorist attack to avoid losing re-election—Obama and Biden knew they could pull off one more caper. But this time, "Obama’s lackeys didn’t just ignore or excuse his bad behavior, they were in on it. Now they are trying to hide the evidence." . . .

The Dixie Chicks Officially Change Their Name to The Chicks

Snopes

The move follows a decision by country group Lady Antebellum to change to Lady A after acknowledging the word’s association to slavery.


"NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Grammy-winning country group The Dixie Chicks have dropped the word Dixie from their name, now going by The Chicks.
"The band’s social media accounts and website were changed on Thursday to the refer to the new name for the band, which is made up of Martie Maguire, Natalie Maines and Emily Strayer. The band also recognized that the name was already in use by a band in New Zealand.
" 'A sincere and heartfelt thank you goes out to ‘The Chicks’ of NZ for their gracious gesture in allowing us to share their name. We are honored to co-exist together in the world with these exceptionally talented sisters,” the band said in a statement.
"The move follows a decision by country group Lady Antebellum to change to Lady A after acknowledging the word’s association to slavery. A statement on The Chicks’ website said “ 'We want to meet this moment.” The term Dixie refers to Southern U.S. states, especially those that belonged to the Confederacy.
The Chicks, who are releasing their first new album in 14 years next month, also released a new video for their new song, “March March” that features videos and images from the recent Black Lives Matter rallies.
Lady A received criticism with their name switch after a Black singer revealed she’d been performing as Lady A for years.
"The Chicks are the best selling female group in America with more than 33 million albums sold in the United States, according to the Recording Industry Association of America. Formed originally in Texas as a bluegrass group, the band hit commercial fame with their breakthrough album “Wide Open Spaces.” The band has won 13 Grammys.
Dixie All Purpose Cups, 5 oz, 100 Count (3 Pack)"The band was shunned by country radio over an incident in 2003 when lead singer Maines criticized then-President George W. Bush because of the Iraq War. They responded to the backlash with their song “Not Ready to Make Nice,” and swept the Grammys in 2007 winning three of the top all-genre categories." . .  .

Biden wasn't kidding when he kept saying "Barack and I..."

Obama and Biden were up to their necks in the Flynn persecution
. . . "The notes, which Peter Strzok wrote based on a conversation with Comey, show Obama directing the FBI to investigate General Flynn using “the right people,” while Biden came up with the idea that Flynn should be prosecuted under the Logan Act, an old, unconstitutional law that is inapplicable to a national security advisor. As well as showing a White House conspiracy against the incoming administration, the notes also reveal that Susan Rice’s bizarre inauguration email to herself was false and that Biden lied to Americans about his involvement.
"Although heavily redacted, the portion of the notes that the DOJ released to the public is unambiguous. In the Scribd document embedded below, the title that The Federalist gave to the one page document tells the whole story: “Peter Strzok’s Notes Confirm Obama Personally Ordered Hit on Michael Flynn.” .  .  .
Tony Branco
. . . "On top of all that, there’s also the fact that the Democrats’ presidential nominee – Joe Biden – played an active, if idiotic, role in what looks remarkably like a seditious conspiracy.
"The notes reveal that Biden was the person who came up with the idea of a Logan Act prosecution. Actually, that makes sense. It would be Biden who would cite an 18th century, unconstitutional law that cannot apply to an incoming national security advisor. One has to wonder how Biden even thought of it. The best theory comes from Undercover Huber:" . . .
Riots give Donald Trump a chance to rally his supporters and go after racism  . . . "Videos of rioters pulling down statues and occupying American cities are bewildering. Why are these people allowed to do this?
"We already know the answer: politics. Urban America is largely run by liberals who have no idea how to stop the anarchists. A shocking amount of lawlessness is taking place where weak politicians are too spineless to stop it." . . .
This Is Why Obama Wanted Biden Not To Run And His Team Keeps Him In The Basement  "Check Obama’s face when Biden isn’t even able to finish reading off the teleprompter with his “response.' ” . . .  Watch Joe and Barack here

The feats of Democrat governance over anything

Investment Firm CEO Says Company Is Leaving Seattle Following Unrest  . . . "The CEO of a billion-dollar investment firm said his company is moving away from Seattle following weeks of unrest and the establishment of downtown’s so-called Capitol Hill Occupied Protest, or CHOP.
“ 'The unrest that has taken place in the city of Seattle … there is really is not a downtown business community today,” Smead Capital Management President Cole Smead told KTAR on June 22. The firm announced its decision to move its office to Phoenix’s Camelback Corridor last week.
“ 'My biggest concern for Seattle was what the business community is going to come back to, and what kind of businesses are going to come back for customers,” he said." . . .

Businesses Leaving Riot-Torn Cities - ‘They Didn’t Protect Our People’
. . . "The destruction that took place in Minneapolis amounts to over $500 million dollars in damages. One-thousand businesses were damaged, and 52 of those were destroyed, the Star Tribune reported.
"Wryrobek said that he is confident that his business will overcome, but that it would not be doing it in Minneapolis" . . .




Cities lose their charms when they’re engulfed in chaos, crime, and mobs — and run by virtue-signaling appeasers.  . . . "When the mayor and police look the other way as the mob carries off Louis Vuitton bags, and CNN reporters assure us of peaceful protests while flames engulf our television screens, why rebuild or restore what the authorities and the influential deem expendable? Why live in Detroit in 1970 when a constant 1967 repeat was supposed to be a tolerable cost of doing business there?" . . . Victor Davis Hanson

All to bow and appease these people? And yet they vote for people just like themselves to run this nation! 
Tucker Carlson: Never Been A Dumber Group Gathered In One Place Than Anti-Statue Protesters  . . . "A lot the stupidest people, by the way, are quote “well educated.” They have all the worthless credentials we’re told we should want for our children. They went to Duke. They work at some nonprofit, or hold a good-paying job in digital marketing at Nike. They’re supposedly impressive. But they’re not. They’re incredibly dumb. They fall for any lie. Like small children, they’re afraid of everything. In California, an Hispanic utilities worker made the mistake of cracking his knuckles at a red light. The geniuses thought he was flashing a white supremacist gang sign, so they fired him. In Oakland, Mayor Libby Schaaf, who says she went to college and law school, mistook exercise equipment in a park for Ku Klux Klan nooses. Schaaf then held a press conference to hyperventilate about “hate crimes.” It was textbook hysteria. But also hysterically funny." . . .

But They Said Mail Voting Was Okay: Hundreds Of NJ Republicans Receive Democrat Ballots With Only Democrat Candidates

"What happens if you get a ballot in the mail, and it doesn’t have any candidates from your party on it? Does THIS count as voter suppression?
"Remember when objecting to large-scale mail-in ballots was proof that you wanted to suppress the vote? Well, it didn’t take long for their concerns to be vindicated—suppressing GOP votes.
"We live in crazy times, where it’s getting harder to tell the difference between basic incompetence, like an honest printer error, or a dirty trick played by someone willing to win ‘by any means necessary.’ " . . .

Apparently, they were correctly printed for Democrat voters but sent to Republicans. But sent to non-Democrats. TD
