“Why Should I?” AG Bill Barr DESTROYS Trump-Hating Hack Eric Swalwell During House Testimony

The Gateway Pundit "Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) is such a hack.

"On Tuesday Swalwell tried to impugn Attorney General Bill Barr’s integrity during his testimony in front of the House Judiciary Committee.
"It totally backfired.
"Swalwell looked like a bitter, small man as Bill Barr continued to swat his accusations down one after another.
"When asked if he will investigate President Trump for pardoning Roger Stone, Barr answered, “Why should I?' ”

Rep. Biggs said what anyone watching is thinking:

House Judiciary Democrats are setting up "gotcha" questions for AG Barr, then cutting him off before he can give a complete answer. This hearing is nothing short of political theater, & the American people should be outraged that Democrats aren't concerned with solving issues.

The Full Video Montage of Violent Riots Democrats Didn't Want You to See at AG Barr's Hearing

Julio Rosas  "The Republican side of the House Judiciary Committee played a video montage of the violence that has been occurring in the United States since the death of George Floyd at the beginning of the committee's hearing with Attorney General William Barr.
"The montage, which included video taken by Townhall, was played on Tuesday as part of Ranking Member Jim Jordan's (R-OH) opening statement, which has no time limit. The Democrats, who are in charge of the hearing, cut the video short after it played for around seven minutes.
" 'There is no time limit in opening statements. They cut [the video] because they are scared of the truth," a Republican source on the Committee told Townhall." . . .

MSNBC’s Sharpton Enables Far-Left Violence, Claims Riots Are ‘Peaceful’

Mike Adams’ Legacy Is Bigger Than Tweets. Read a few of his writings..

Laura Steele Walsh  "Most people have had a teacher who once said or did something that had an impact on their life. But not everyone has had a teacher who turned his or her entire life completely upside down in a national, political dogfight over a Christmas tree. In fact, I only know of one such teacher and one such student to have ever done that. The teacher was Townhall columnist Dr. Mike S. Adams, and the student was me.". . . 

On more than a few occasions in the past 15 years I have found myself looking up at a Christmas tree— a beautiful symbol of hope and of our Savior’s birth and victory over evil and death— and Mike S. Adams has popped into my head. Having never told him that is something I now very much regret.

Frequent Target of Cancel Culturalists  . . . He was forced into retirement a few weeks ago after liberal students and faculty members launched another campaign to have him fired after becoming offended by tweets he posted to his Twitter account they described as being “offensive” and “racist.”
"Hollywood celebrities with ties to the city also helped organize a boycott of the school in hopes it would force their hand with Adams, who the university had unsuccessfully tried to deny tenure to in 2006 over his conservative views." . . .
Some of Professor Adams' columns:


The Unteachables:  The inmates really are running this institution. And they are appointing the convicted fox to guard the henhouse.

CONCLUSION. Abortion is wrong.

How To Confront And Cross Examine Incompetent Marxist Educators  . . . "Many of the students who attend Summit’s two-week worldview conferences ask me questions about how best to deal with difficult teachers and professors. Just this morning, a student asked such a question that was so important it requires a column-length response. First, let me supply a little background information. " . . .

A Wake For Civil Liberties  . . . "And there you have it. Unbridled discretion to shut down public worship by a county government that is freed by the governor to impose arbitrary demands on churches – such as that they operate with “minimal staff.” But don’t trust my interpretation. Read for yourself what Wake County Officials had to say: " . . .

The Tenured Enemy in Our Midst  . . . "My accusations were serious but irrefutable: Julio Pino was an Islamic jihadist who was actively conspiring with other terrorists seeking to murder American troops and innocent civilians. The FBI eventually got Pino. Unfortunately, it took them eleven years during which Ohio taxpayers were forced to pay the salary of a man who was openly planning to wage war on his own country." . . .

Fashionable Bigotry  Since my last column on academic hypocrisy several readers have written to express the view that intolerance toward conservative Christians is the only form of intolerance that academics are willing to tolerate. Such a view seems reasonable at first glance. Upon further reflection it misses the mark. 

Death of Prof. Mike Adams ruled a suicide, our silent majority was needed to speak out for him

Mark Steyn’s commentary on the death of Prof. Mike Adams: “if you’re doing the heavy lifting on an otherwise abandoned front of the culture war, what you mostly hear, as Mike Adams did, is the silent majority’s silence – month in, month out….”

Perhaps as we see Attorney General Barr being attacked by Democrats that we must not remain our silence and openly support him

The years-long attacks on him took a toll.

But either way, if you’re doing the heavy lifting on an otherwise abandoned front of the culture war, what you mostly hear, as Mike Adams did, is the silent majority’s silence – month in, month out….

And yet, if the facts are as they appear, a tireless and apparently “happy warrior” – exhausted by a decade of litigation, threats, boycotts, ostracization and more – found himself sitting alone – and all he heard in the deafening silence of the “silent majority” was his own isolation and despair. A terrible end for a brave man. Rest in peace.

"Sad news. The death of UNC-Wilmington Professor Mike Adams has been ruled a suicide."

The New Hanover Sheriff’s Office has ruled that UNCW Professor Mike Adams died by suicide.

According to the agency’s spokesperson, Lt. Jerry Brewer, after an investigation by detectives and the medical examiner, “it was ascertained that Mr. Adams committed suicide with a single gunshot wound to the head.”

“No other people were in the home and foul play is not suspected,” he said.

"Mark Steyn’s commentary, which we posted earlier today, is worth repeating:

He “seemed like” a happy warrior, but who knows? It’s a miserable, unrelenting, stressful life, as the friends fall away and the colleagues, who were socially distant years before Covid, turn openly hostile….

 New silent majority against far-left extremism may help reelect Trump

Media and Hollywood elites are sending a not-so-subtle message that a vote for Mr. Trump is a vote for evil, but many people in this country have a far different definition of real evil than the likes of Rosie O’Donnell, Stephen Colbert and Anderson Cooper. We won’t know until November how many compose the new silent majority or if one really exists, but I am ready to bet good money that there are more than The Washington Post and ABC News suspect. 

Biden: If I Lose It’s Because Trump Stole The Election

Donkey Hotey

Issues & Insights  "Joe Biden is leading in the polls by wide margins, but he’s already making excuses should he lose to Donald Trump in November. Namely, he’s saying the president is planning to somehow steal the election.
"Back in June, Biden told “Daily Show” host Trevor Noah that “It’s my greatest concern, my single greatest concern: This president is going to steal this election. This is a guy who said all mail-in ballots are fraudulent, direct voting by mail, while he sits behind a desk in the Oval Office and writes his mail-in ballot to vote in the primary.”
"Earlier this month, Biden announced that he would deploy 600 lawyers and 10,000 volunteers to fight against election “chicanery.”
"Then last week, Biden predicted that Trump was “going to try to indirectly steal the election by arguing that mail-in ballots don’t work. They’re not real. They’re not fair.”

Trump’s complaint is that states are using the pandemic to rush through universal mail-in voting schemes and that this will make voter fraud easier.
" 'Trump is right to worry. After all, look who’s pushing these all-mail voting schemes. "Democrats tried to force every state to adopt universal mail-in voting for this November through a provision tucked into the CARES Act, which also would have waived basic security requirements such as witness signatures and official postmarks. Republicans blocked these efforts.
"So now leftist groups are busy filing state lawsuits across the country — more than 150 so far — to achieve through the courts what they couldn’t get through Congress." . . .

In Kayleigh McEnany, President Trump has finally found a skilled spokes-partner

Miami Herald

"After 1,173 days in office and three now-departed spokesmen, it appears President Donald Trump has found his preferred White House press secretary in Kayleigh McEnany — and just in time for a rugged fall election campaign.

"McEnany, a 32-year-old author, Harvard Law grad and GOP advocate from Tampa who has quickly risen from partisan TV pundit to spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee to the Trump reelection campaign and since April, to White House press secretary.

CNN's Stelter accused of breaching network's confidentiality agreement with Sandmann: 'May cost him his job'

Stelter

No problem for CNN. There are plenty more Lemons in the media to pick from. TD

Fox News  
'Brian Stelter is a liar. I know how to deal with liars,' Sandmann's attorney tweeted  

"CNN's chief media correspondent Brian Stelter may have landed himself in hot water, according to the attorney of Covington Catholic High School student Nicholas Sandmann.
"Last week, Sandmann announced that The Washington Post settled the $250 million defamation lawsuit he filed over its botched coverage of a viral confrontation with a Native American elder who had portrayed the Kentucky teen as the aggressor. This followed the multimillion dollar settlement agreement CNN reached with the teenager back in January.
"However, Sandmann's attorney, Lin Wood, spotted a retweet from Stelter of a tweet written by attorney Mark Zaid, who speculated about how much money the teen walked away with from the settlement.
""Those with zero legal experience (as far as I can tell) should not be conjecturing on lawsuits they know nothing about. What kind of journalism is that?" Zaid asked. "I've litigated defamation cases. [Sandmann] was undoubtedly paid nuisance value settlement & nothing more."
"Wood accused the "Reliable Sources" host of breaching his network's own confidentiality agreement with his client.
" 'This retweet by @brianstelter may have cost him his job at @CNN. It is called breach of confidentiality agreement. Brian Stelter is a liar. I know how to deal with liars," Wood tweeted with a screenshot of Stelter's retweet." . . .

Attorney Todd McMurtry previously told Fox News that lawsuits against “as many as 13 other defendants" would be filed.Among them: ABC, CBS, The Guardian, The Huffington Post, NPR, Slate, The Hill and Gannett, which owns the Cincinnati Enquirer, as well as miscellaneous other small outfits, according to McMurtry.

Gov. Mike Parson: Over 100 St. Louis Murders Go Uncharged While Kim Gardner Charges McCloskeys

Daily Caller

" 'Republican Missouri Gov. Mike Parson said Saturday that over 100 murders had gone uncharged while St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner charged Mark and Patricia McCloskey.
"Parson defended the McCloskeys, who were charged with felonies after they openly displayed firearms as they confronted protesters on their property, during a discussion with David Asman on “Cavuto: Live.”  
"Noting that Parson had said that he would pardon the McCloskeys if it came to that, Asman asked, “Why is it that you have a prosecutor in your state letting the law breakers go and charging the victims with a felony?”

"Parson began by hinting that he would prefer to remove Gardner from her position if that were an option, saying, “Well, it’s unfortunate that somebody, when you get elected officials, you know, under our constitution, they are fairly well protected to that job.”
"He went on to say that Gardner’s actions placed her outside what she had sworn to do when she took her oath of office, however, adding, “We’ve had 138 homicides in St. Louis, 138 already this year. Thirty cases have been filed. So that means there’s over 100 cases of people out there, victims, family members of homicides, that are waiting for some sort of justice, and yet we’re charging law-abiding citizens.' ”  . . .

10 Big Fat Lies You're Being Told About the Portland Riots

Lie 3: ‘Moms’ Bravely Leave Children’s Sides to Attend Riots

After Democrats issued the new talking points that federal cops were “Trump’s secret police,” women, some of them known antifa members, took off their black balaclavas to refashion themselves into “moms.” Somehow these individually acting, concerned mothers all knew to get a yellow shirt, riot helmet, and “hey, hey, ho, ho” chant to drive away those bad federal officers.

Victoria Taft "Democrats have fully pivoted on the nightly Portland riots. They’ve gone all-in on blaming the riots on President Trump thus allying themselves with the antifa and Black Lives Matter anarchist and communist mobs. Instead of black bloc balaclavas or masks, the politicians have donned the cloak of civil libertarianism. In doing so, they make a mockery of it.
"Democrats, so far as I can find, have never denounced the violent mobs, though New York Governor Andrew Cuomo once wagged a finger at George Floyd rioters while simultaneously explaining that it wasn’t really their fault because “income inequality” led to violence. Indeed, the only remonstrance issued was over people burning down black-owned businesses – their “own house” as he put it, because burning your own stuff “never makes sense.” As denunciations go, it was a rambling nothing-burger. Atlanta’s mayor voiced similar disgust with the arsonists and looters.
"In fact, mayors, governors, and prosecutors have fallen all over themselves to support the violent mobs in Seattle, New York, St. Louis, Washington, D.C., and, of course, Portland, often conflating the “mostly peaceful” protesters upset with the killing of George Floyd – remember him? – with the ones looting Louis Vuitton, tearing down statues of George Washington, and trying to burn down federal buildings.
"Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan ceded a section of the fancy Capitol Hill neighborhood to the mob. She handed over a police precinct to the mob. Two murders, gunshot wounds, assaults, and rapes took place at her pet mob’s little “summer of love” squat. She’s never apologized.
"Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey gave over a police precinct to the mob. Police officers inside thought they’d die that night and if they’d stayed they would have. When rioters weren’t boosting free stuff from the Target, looters and rioters were spectating the conflagration they’d started at the precinct with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. "The mayor later asked President Trump for money to help rebuild it. Trump said hell no.

But this is an election year and time is short. The mobs are deployed to cause chaos and misdirection, as they were in Portland and elsewhere in the months leading up and after the 2016 presidential election. They are cracking heads and cold-cocking Trump rally-goers who dare bring a contra-narrative to one of their riots." . . .

Hey hey, ho, ho! America has got to go!

. . . [Andy] Ngo writes of these “moms,” “I recognize a lot of the so-called ‘moms’ as the same antifa women who dressed in black as recent as a couple days ago. They just put on a yellow shirt now for optics. Most of these people aren’t mothers & many don’t even identify as female.  If you hadn’t figured it out yet, it’s Portland’s version of Pallywood. These are merely actors playing a role.

Dana Loesch:  

Rioters -- the ones committing arson, assault, and damaging private property -- are the ones being arrested, not protestors. If parents raised their kids not to commit arson, assault, or damage private property none of this would be necessary.

Say a Prayer for Joe Biden, but Don't Vote for Him

Say a Prayer for Joe Biden, but Don't Vote for Him   . . . "Seven years ago, I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.  A common symptom is something called brain fog.  It just slows a person’s thinking and tends to come and go.  My neurologist prescribed a battery of tests to establish a baseline that he could use to monitor my cognitive function over the years.  Dementia can be a terrible symptom of multiple sclerosis later in the disease process.  Naturally, like so many of us do, I wanted to learn as much about dementia as I could.  I have studied the disease a great deal.  It is not difficult to recognize a progressive memory disease if you know just the basics.  Anyone who has had a loved one develop dementia will very often tell you that they had diagnosed their loved one long before the first doctor’s appointment.

"There is certainly a reason that Joe Biden will not answer any questions after the few speeches he has given.  He and his team are fully aware he might not be able to remember events surrounding the question, he might not be able to find the right words or the questions could cause him to get confused.  So what does he do?  He gets back to his basement as quickly as possible." . . .

 Joe Biden Left Scranton Long Ago  . . . "Not Joe, the football hero and conqueror of Cornpop. He suddenly developed asthma and made 4F after running out the student deferments.  But he obviously recovered so that he can challenge Trump and the occasional heckler he encounters to fisticuffs.

"So, sorry, Blue Collar Joe from Scranton, who has never had a real job in his life, never experienced what it was like for the rest of us in the valley.  He was long gone. 

"But the Scranton Joe story is more than Joe’s fake claims and cultural appropriation." . . .
