Something’s not quite right about this. The victim’s name is Myron Berryman, but no pictures are published yet.

NY Post  "The 51-year-old man whose shooting by the Secret Service disrupted President Trump’s press conference is a 6-foot-3 former licensed boxer who was previously charged with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct, according to a report.

"Myron Berryman has been charged with assaulting a law enforcement officer after allegedly approaching a Secret Service agent Monday evening while claiming to have a weapon.
"The officer shot Berryman in the torso when he “crouched into a shooter’s stance as if about to fire a weapon,” officials said.
"Berryman, who has lived in Dayton, Ohio, Forrestville, Maryland, and, more recently, Wheeling, West Virginia, was charged in 2012 with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct in Prince George’s County, the Washington Post reported.
"He sought to take his case to trial, but it ended in a plea in 2013, according to the newspaper." . . .

Something’s not quite right about this. The victim’s name is Myron Berryman, but no pictures are published yet. His sister says he’s a very mild mannered kind person.

. . . "She speculated that he could have been taking part in protests outside the White House, where demonstrators have been gathering since the killing of George Floyd in the custody of Minneapolis police.
“ 'Myron is always encouraging everybody,” she said. “He has never had anything negative to say. He always encourages people.”
"Authorities are trying to figure out if Berryman has a history of mental illness. No weapon was recovered from the scene of the shooting, officials have said." . . .

Kamala Harris Has No Follow-Through

There is no value to a “viral moment” if you have to spend the days that follow it awkwardly explaining yourself. Too often, Harris has shown she is willing to give her audience whatever it wants even at the cost of her political fortunes. It already cost her the nomination. It may cost Joe Biden the presidency.

Ian Macfarlane

Noah Rothman  "Joe Biden’s decision to draft Senator Kamala Harris into the presidential race has been hailed as a tactically deft maneuver. She represents a portion of the Democratic electorate—one that is overrepresented in the press—that has struggled to find any enthusiasm for Biden. But while Harris brings a lot to the Democratic table, what she seems to lack is any capacity for strategic planning. As her time in the national spotlight has demonstrated, Harris’s ability to mount a sustained and effective campaign against her chosen targets is woefully inadequate.

"Take, for example, the “moment” Harris had during Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings. Clips of the California senator’s performance went viral after she grilled the Supreme Court nominee over a meeting she alleged that he had taken with “President Trump’s personal lawyer.” Harris’s allegation was dripping with implication, and just vague enough to allow Americans who were hostile toward Kavanaugh to assume the worst." . . .

Clint Eastwood: Obama ‘Worst President In Our History; He Looted America’

“ 'There is a good film in all this,” Eastwood said. “A cautionary tale about a Republic in crisis.” “ 'But America is not ready for it yet. The third act isn’t finished. We need arrests.“

Newspunch  "Shameless Barack Obama “looted America like a mobster” while running “the dirtiest business in the town” according to Clint Eastwood, who also declared that history will judge Obama to be “the very worst president in the history of the United States – by some distance.“
“ 'Nobody would have predicted Obama would turn out to be such a vindictive bully,” Clint

Eastwood said in London, England, while promoting his new film, 15:17 To Paris, about three young Americans who thwarted a terrorist attack on a French train in 2015.
“The great shame of the Obama administration was the way he looted ordinary Americans, and then put out hit-jobs on anybody who dared to question his White House,” Eastwood said.

“ 'There is hard evidence that anyone who filed a formal complaint with the authorities about illegal actions by Obama’s administration was hit with vindictive and destructive bullying tactics by Obama’s people.”
“ 'The Obama administration ruined millions of people’s lives. Go and speak to the thousands of US citizens in New York, Seattle, Dallas, Boston, you name it, who had hit-jobs put on them by Obama and his administration.”
"According to the veteran actor and director, who was mocked by mainstream media for campaigning against Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012, Obama was “living under daily fear of being exposed” for running a sham presidency designed to exclusively benefit the elites who “rigged” his path into office.
“ 'Silicon Valley, Chicago political dirty tricksters, and mainstream news cartels controlled by the DNC managed to rig Obama’s way into office based on promises of kickbacks. And boy did Obama deliver.”
“ 'Dirtiest business in town”
“ 'In hindsight it has become clearer that Obama’s presidency was hanging by a thread of cover-ups,” Eastwood said.
“ 'We’re talking Russian billionaire mining deals, Solyndra and Afghan profiteering schemes, and the like. The whole White House knew they were walking a tightrope. They could all go down in one Watergate-type revelation at any moment.
“ 'Obama’s Attorney General Eric Holder was voted the most corrupt Attorney General in history. And he had to be.”
"But it wasn’t just Eric Holder, according to Eastwood. “There is a whole network of dirty tricks operatives passing themselves off as moral guardians of our country. Even Obama’s own FBI broke laws and the limits of morality.”
“ 'There is a good film in all this,” Eastwood said. “A cautionary tale about a Republic in crisis.”
“ 'But America is not ready for it yet. The third act isn’t finished. We need arrests.' “

Liberal Double Standards At Work

Joe and Kamala, the Demagogic Duo; The debut of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris was marked by audacious lies.  
. . . "On ample display Wednesday was the ticket’s relentless demagoguery. Both Biden and Harris are audacious and monumental liars. It is a toss-up as to who lied more in their speeches. Biden repeated the malicious whopper that Donald Trump praised white supremacists at Charlottesville. That is a malignant lie that shows Biden’s willingness to divide the country for his own political gain. Biden knows perfectly well that Trump was referring not to white supremacists but to Virginians opposed to the Left’s monument-toppling iconoclasm.
" 'Both Biden and Harris spoke of the “soul of the nation,” a phrase that ill befits a party determined to drive religion out of public life. Harris is on record saying that mere membership in the Knights of Columbus disqualifies a person from serving in the judiciary. Biden has said that he will force the Little Sisters of the Poor to violate their faith." . . .

Barr says he won’t wait until after election to reveal Durham’s findings. Democrats fear a campaign-altering surprise.

WaPo  Attorney General William P. Barr reiterated this week that he will not wait until after November’s election to release whatever U.S. Attorney John Durham finds in his examination of the FBI’s 2016 investigation into President Trump’s campaign, raising fears among Democrats that Barr and Durham could upend the presidential race with a late revelation.
"Republicans have been eagerly awaiting Durham’s findings — hopeful that the prosecutor Barr handpicked last year to investigate the investigation of possible coordination between Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russia will validate their fierce criticisms of the bureau. Democrats, meanwhile, have worried that the Connecticut U.S. attorney is aiding a political stunt designed to undercut an investigation that dogged Trump’s presidency.

"As the election draws near — and much of what Durham is doing remains a mystery — both sides have grown increasingly anxious, with liberals fretting over an October surprise, and Republicans wondering whether Durham’s work could push into the next administration.
"John Durham has a stellar reputation for investigating corruption. Some* fear his work for Barr could tarnish it.

"Barr has repeatedly and stridently attacked the Russia investigation — saying that what happened to Trump was “one of the greatest travesties in American history” — while hinting vaguely that he is “troubled” by what he knows Durham has found. That has drawn accusations from Democrats and legal analysts that he is inappropriately talking about an ongoing case and prejudging its outcome." . . .

How Do I Tell My Friend She’s Not ‘African-American’?

We ought to have the same rule on tearing down the nation’s history as for reparations: You have to have at least one American grandparent to denounce our traditions, statues and monuments. Nikki Haley, for example, can take down monuments to Bush, Facebook or “American Idol” — all of which she was present in the country for.

 Ann Coulter  "My wonderful readers often have questions for me, particularly in what every TV commercial calls “these uncertain times” when we’re all “in this together” and must give hourly thanks to “our heroes.”
"So, as I have in the past, I wanted to take a moment to reply to questions that have been pouring in from, again: no one.
     1) What do you think of Joe Biden’s pick of Kamala Harris as his V.P.?
"I think Susan Rice or Keisha Lance Bottoms would have been better, but inasmuch as I predicted Kamala as the Democrats’ next presidential candidate back before she’d even won her Senate seat, I strongly support his decision for making me almost, kind of, in the ballpark right.
     2) That’s an amazing prediction — but what on earth made you predict her?
"Because the Democratic Party is entirely about identity politics these days, meaning race, ethnicity, immigration status, gender and sexual orientation, but having absolutely nothing to do with economic class, social standing, occupational category or geographic location.
"They already had Obama, so what’s better than the first black president? The first black woman president, of course!
     3) But she’s half-Indian and half-Jamaican, not a foundational black American. No           reparations for her! In fact, her Jamaican father admits their family owned slaves.
"Yeah, yeah. The only people who care about foundational black Americans are Tariq Nasheed and me. As described in my book Mugged, Democrats were always annoyed by the idea that civil rights should have anything to do with black people. That’s why “civil rights” quickly came to mean abortion rights, gay rights, the right not to see construction

signs that say “Men at Work.” (That’s according to the Kentucky Commission on Civil Rights.) Black Americans should breathe a sigh of relief that Biden didn’t pick a transsexual and expect their gratitude.
     4) Wait a minute! Are we going to have to engage in Nazi-era genetic coding to determine who gets slavery reparations?
"Not at all. We have very reliable census records back to at least the 1870s, so we can count foundational black Americans to their grandparents. One American grandparent and the rest Nigerian — you get 25 cents on the dollar.
     5) Oh, that’s too complicated! Why not just say: Everyone who’s black gets a check?
"Fine, then give me one. Prove I have no black blood. You’re going to have to do the genealogical research one way or another.
     6) Why don’t we have the concept of foundational WHITE Americans?
"EXCELLENT POINT. I can’t help but notice that most of the people denouncing Confederate monuments are neither foundational black Americans nor foundational white Americans. Of course recent immigrants don’t care about Confederate monuments! They weren’t here. That’s our issue. We don’t respect the South’s cause, but we do respect their honor. It’s OUR history. Not yours." . . .

Seattle Disbands Police, Replaces With New Organization 'People Offering Little Insulation From Community Evils,' Or P.O.L.I.C.E. For Short   (Parody)

SEATTLE, WA—Seattle has disbanded its police department and replaced it with an exciting new community-driven organization called People Offering Little Insulation from Community Evils, or "P.O.L.I.C.E." for short.

" 'This is an exciting new chapter in the history of humanity," Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan said as she unveiled the organization's new name. "We have finally freed ourselves from the oppressive police. In their place, we will have P.O.L.I.C.E."

 "The new group will be armed with some kind of implements to give them an advantage against bad guys in a fight, such as a stick or firearm. They will need to be easily identified, of course, so they will wear dark blue uniforms with distinctive patches or badges in prominent places such as their sleeves or front shirt pocket. Finally, they will get special cars that can flash bright lights and play loud sounds to let people know that help is on the way.

" 'We're going to name them 'sirens' after the Greek myth," said Durkan. "Only these sirens will signal that your community protection agent is close by to keep you safe."

"Seattle is still working on the motto of P.O.L.I.C.E. A current frontrunner is "To defend and provide service.' "    Copyright 2020 The Babylon Bee

Kamala Harris Led Smear Campaign Against Brett Kavanaugh

Breitbart  "Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), whom Joe Biden chose as his running mate on Tuesday, led efforts to smear Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings in 2018.

"Harris pursued unsubstantiated accusations of sexual misconduct against Kavanaugh, even introducing a letter from a “Jane Doe” who claimed that youthful Kavanaugh and a friend had raped her “several times” after offering her a lift home from a party.
"She earned condemnation for a deceptively-edited video in which she claimed Kavanaugh opposed birth control:" 
. . .
"Even left-leaning PolitiFact rated Harris’s attack on Kavanaugh as “false.”
"Harris’s efforts were so brazen that they even earned criticism from the two major liberal newspapers in her home state, the San Francisco Chronicle and the Los Angeles Times.

"At one point, she asked Kavanaugh about whether he had spoken to anyone at a particular law firm, adding ominously: “Be sure about your answer, sir.” But as the Times‘ Michael McGough noted, “there was no big reveal.' ”
Mollie@MZHemingway

"One of my favorite stories in Justice on Trial was when Kamala Harris blatantly tried to perjury trap Kavanaugh by asking if he'd ever talked to anyone at a particular law firm. It was pretty lame but Media LOVED IT. Then it all fell apart because she literally had nothing." . . .

Trump campaign brands Harris as Phony, and shifts from Sleepy Joe to Slow Joe.

“Slow Joe and Phony Kamala” – First Attack Ad On Kamala VP Pick The ‘Trump War Room’ operation of the Trump campaign was ready with an attack ad on the pick of Kamala Harris, branding her as “phony.”

"his branding, as I pointed out with regard to Trump branding people, only works if there is some truth to it and it resonates with the public perception." . . .

. . . "Let’s face it, Jeb was Low Energy, Hillary was Crooked, Little Marco, and down the list. It only works because people hear it and say, well, yeah.

"Harris is a phony. She will say anything, and shift her positions as needed. That’s why she didn’t gain any traction in the primaries, not even among black voters.

"In a twist, the new attack ad brands Biden as “Slow Joe,” a switch from “Sleepy Joe”. That might signal that the Trump campaign is putting Biden’s mental acuity front and center. If Trump himself starts using it, then a clear branding decision has been made." . . .

Flashback: That Time Kamala Harris Said She Believed Biden’s Accusers

. . . "There was a point in the primary, sometime in the last 2,982,092,094 years where Biden’s penchant for making women horrendously uncomfortable with unwanted touching, along with some more serious allegations, were a thing of headlines.

"Somewhere in there, when she too was vying for the top spot on the ticket, Sen. Harris (newly minted at Biden’s VP pick) said she believed Biden’s accusers.

"From The Hill:

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) said Tuesday that she believes women who say they felt uncomfortable after receiving unwanted touching from former Vice President Joe Biden.

“I believe them and I respect them being able to tell their story and having the courage to do it,” Harris said at a presidential campaign event in Nevada.

The California senator added that Biden will need to decide for himself whether to run for president.
