KAYLEIGH MCENANY: NOW YOU CARE ABOUT THE RIOTING

Lets be Frank

NANCY PELOSI SHREDDED AGAIN BY KAYLEIGH MCENANY

HOW TO ANSWER TOUGH QUESTIONS LIKE A BOSS (KAYLEIGH MCENANY EDITION)

"As Donald Trump's newest press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany spends most of her time fielding "gotcha" questions, questions that have an agenda to them, usually to embarrass, to dominate, and to make the administration recant something. "Trump has had quite a few press secretaries, but this latest one is surprisingly effective. "In this video, you will learn Kayleigh McEnany's three-step formula that she uses over and over to handle (and crush) these tough, gotcha questions!"

Kyle Rittenhouse

The Next Nick Sandmann? Defamed Covington Kid's Lawyer Takes Up the Case of Kyle Rittenhouse  "On Thursday, L. Lin Wood, one of the lawyers who represented Nick Sandmann, the Covington Catholic High School student defamed by many media outlets, announced he would take up the case of Kyle Rittenhouse, the 17-year-old boy who opened fire at Kenosha rioters — apparently in self-defense — and was arrested under suspicion for first-degree intentional homicide. As in Sandmann’s case, many media outlets and political figures have demonized Rittenhouse, with some calling him a “white supremacist” despite the lack of any evidence." . . .

The Charges Against Kyle Rittenhouse  . . . "America’s Founders foresaw the need for armed young men to rise to the defense of their communities against rioters, looters, and foreign invaders. Men younger than Kyle fought in the American Revolution, put down insurrections under George Washington, and trained in militia groups in anticipation of threats. It was for these men that the 2nd Amendment was written, and it is men like Kyle whom the amendment must continue to protect.

"The frailty of the charges brought against Kyle Rittenhouse show the well from which the insurrectionist mobs draw their power: the political class, the prosecutor’s office, and the media. Rittenhouse is charged with allegations refuted by the prosecutor’s own complaint, but the Portland murderer can gun down Trump supporters in the street because prosecutors declined to press charges for his gun crimes. The privilege of immunity for city leaders and prosecutors who abdicate their duties must end. It is time for President Trump to order his Justice Department to lock up corrupt prosecutors and city leaders who knowingly put people in danger.
"Until then, we depend on citizens like Kyle Rittenhouse."

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) described Kyle Rittenhouse as a “17 year old white supremacist domestic terrorist,” claiming he “shot and killed 2 people who had assembled to affirm the value, dignity, and worth of Black lives.” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) retweeted the accusation.

. . . "There is no evidence that Kyle Rittenhouse was a white supremacist, however.
"Triebert noted that the 17-year-old boy’s “social media profiles proclaim support for pro-police causes like the Blue Lives Matter movement and Humanize the Badge. Other posts show him taking backyard target practice, posing with guns and assembling a military-style semi-automatic rifle.”
"The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) told CBS News that it found “no indication from Rittenhouse’s social media footprint that he is connected to any extremist movements.”
"As Triebert noted, Rittenhouse gladly helped protesters and rioters after police had hit them with pepper-spray.
"While the teenager should not have gone to Kenosha looking for trouble, it seems he is neither a murderer nor a white supremacist.
"The case of Kyle Rittenhouse involves many unanswered questions, but as of now, it really does seem strikingly similar to the story of Nick Sandmann, a teenager whose reputation was destroyed because he fit a narrative many left-leaning reporters were desperate to tell."

Kyle Rittenhouse’s Attorney Busts Misinformation and Lies About the Teen’s Actions In Kenosha  . . . “ 'There was a shot that was fired as Kyle was retreating, actually, from a mob that had become enraged that he was trying to put out the fires that the arsonists had set because he was trying to protect property,” Pierce said.
“They began screaming that Kyle needed to be killed and they were going to kill him. They started relentlessly hunting him as prey as he ran down the street attempting to retreat,” Pierce continued. “As he ran out of room to retreat, shots were fired from behind him.”

“ 'He fired and disarmed the individual, hitting him in the arm,” Pierce said.
“ 'He shot and killed the other person who was attacking him,” Pierce told Carlson, “and I got to tell you, if you really think about this, Tucker, in this war zone, in this chaos that is occurring in this city in America in the middle of Wisconsin, Kyle — the only individuals that Kyle shot were the three individuals that were attacking him and putting him at risk of serious bodily harm or death.' ” . . .

At which point do we declare all this a civil war?

 However, if voters sense that the tide is turning, more will speak up.  After all, we all know the Spartacus promise that, if one or two or three show moral courage, others will follow: A.W.

Rasmussen Reports noticed something very fishy about polling  . . . "Rasmussen has highlighted the fact that the left has weaponized polling.  It frames questions and weights its polls to energize Democrats and demoralize Republicans.  People like a winner, and the left-leaning polling companies know that if a candidate appears to be winning, he will automatically attract more voters.
 "One of the most famous clues in a Sherlock Holmes mystery is what's commonly referred to as "the dog that didn't bark," or, as Holmes actually said, "the dog did nothing in the night-time."  Rasmussen Reports, which puts out a Daily Presidential Tracking Poll like clockwork, noticed that its competitors ceased barking (or, if you prefer, polling) after the two parties held their conventions.  According to Rasmussen, which would know, this silence was unprecedented.
"Rasmussen published a series of tweets on Monday openly snarking at its competitors for their silence.  Moreover, whoever is writing Rasmussen's tweets was not shy about identifying a reason for the other polling outfits' unusual reticence: the narrative up until the conventions was that Biden was unstoppable; it's now quite possible that he's been stopped." . . .

The dangers in declaring support for Donald Trump  . . . "What’s more, at least one national study leads one to conclude that current polls may be seriously understating Mr. Trump’s actual support and explain why our dinner companions weren’t ready to say they might be considering voting differently in November. Many analysts suspected in the wake of the 2016 election that some Trump supporters weren’t being honest with pollsters. Political scientists studying this possibility referred to them as “shy voters” because many of them weren’t willing to let pollsters know they intended to cast a politically incorrect vote for Mr. Trump."

Massive Super PAC Poised To ‘Swift-Boat’ Biden In Key States

Hot Air  "Remember the 2004 presidential campaign between George W. Bush and John Kerry? That campaign produced the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth in support of President Bush. The PAC exposed John Kerry’s record as a Vietnam veteran. It was very effective, too. There is a new version of this kind of Super PAC coming on the scene now and President Trump will be the beneficiary." . . .
. . . "Politico is reporting the PAC’s first campaign ads will begin Tuesday in key states." . . .
. . . "Trump’s law and order campaign is catching on because the violence and destruction continue in cities across the country. Voters do not feel safe in their own homes as they are seeing news reports that show the angry rioters expanding outside downtown areas in some places and moving into residential areas, especially if a prominent local official lives there. The security of living in a gated community is being breached in cities like St. Louis, where destructive protesters tore down the neighborhood’s entrance gate to march to the mayor’s house. Preserve America is using ‘real’ Americans and they are telling some compelling personal stories. Two ad spots can be previewed today." . . .

The first is with Alyssa Cordova. Her husband was a police officer killed in the line of duty in Arizona. She questions what kind of leader Joe Biden is since he isn’t standing up for police. She points to a memorial monument that was defaced with anti-police graffiti, labeling the police as murderers. Alyssa points out that her husband was murdered.

"The second ad is done with John Gillis, a retired Los Angeles police lieutenant. He tells the story of losing his daughter because he was a police officer. He said she was killed execution-style. It, too, is a personal and powerful ad. Gillis questions Biden’s character by saying Biden won’t do tough things because he is too concerned about public opinion."

. . . "The emergence of Preserve America is good news for Team Trump. It’s coming at the right time.

The investment comes two months before the election as Trump continues to trail former Vice President Joe Biden in the polls, and to win Trump would have to be the first incumbent in over 70 years to come from behind after trailing following the major party conventions.

"It wouldn’t be the first time that Trump did something that others before him weren’t able to do, now would it?"

Joe Biden's America being burned down ... by Joe Biden's supporters

Charles Hurt   "Is this Joe Biden’s America? Or Donald Trump’s America?

"Certainly, America is deeply divided today. But every bit of the horrifying images and footage of burning, looting and violence we see today comes exclusively from Joe Biden’s America.

"The carnage in Joe Biden’s America is the result of Democrat mayors and governors unwilling and unable to stand up to the lawless, rioting mob that outwardly claims it is motivated by the very same fevers and political positions that motivate Mr. Biden himself.

"In fact, Mr. Biden’s vice presidential pick, Sen. Kamala Harris, worked so hard to ingratiate herself with the increasingly unruly mob that she went on record a few weeks back raising money “to help post bail” for those arrested during the riots — riots they now claim to oppose.

"At the very least, you would think that Mr. Biden and Ms. Harris might want to stand up for peaceful demonstrators who have a constitutional right to gather peacefully and to express their grievances over police behavior or anything else. After all, those truly peaceful demonstrators are among the first victims of the violent, raging mobs burning American cities today.

"It is worth noting that the chief suspect in the apparent murder of a man in Portland this weekend was out on the street (armed with a gun) despite a recent arrest on a gun charge and a warrant for his arrest on a separate gun charge. If all this bears out, then the prosecutors and politicians who allowed this mayhem to rage out of control literally have blood on their hands." . . .

Joe Biden’s Craven Exercise In Blame Shifting  "After a thug shot and killed a Trump supporter Saturday night in Portland, Democratic nominee Joe Biden suddenly got religion when it comes to leftist riots in our nation’s streets. The former vice president “challenged” President Donald Trump to “condemn violence,” then blamed Trump for “encouraging” it. Say what?
"It goes beyond hypocrisy when Biden for months sat in his basement in near-total silence as his far-left supporters rioted, looted and burned U.S. cities, and his own party egged them on.
"This same man chose as his vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris, who warned us all with a smile on her face during a television appearance that the protesting and rioting is “not gonna stop,” not even after the election.
"Funny what a bit of bad polling will do.
"For months, the 77-year-old Biden said and did nothing as Democrat-supported Antifa and Black Lives Matter followers violently protested across the country.
"Said nothing, that is, until polls showed him losing major ground among voters after the hugely successful Republican National Convention, which focused on patriotic themes and roundly condemned the national violence." . . .

Joe Biden's statement on the violence and riots is way too little, way too late

. . . "But it’s far too late for Democrats to pretend that they didn’t overtly advocate for and make excuses for this horror show. They've only changed their tune now because street violence, chaos, death, and fiery destruction are not exactly political winners — who knew?! "That doesn’t mean we should forget that right up until last week, they thought and said that it was fantastic.

• Biden’s running mate, Kamala Harris, said back in June that “everyone beware” because the protests are “not going to let up, and they should not, and we should not.”
• Democratic Rep. Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts said in an interview on MSNBC, “There needs to be unrest in the streets.”
• In 2018, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi questioned why there weren’t yet “uprisings all over the country” over Trump’s policies.
• Then, of course, the media was there with a helpful assist in attempting to distinguish the mass rioting from the “mostly peaceful” protests even as reporters stood in front of buildings and streets that had literally been turned into bonfires.
• Last week, in Kenosha, Wisconsin, CNN correspondent Omar Jimenez was on camera with the city clearly up in flames behind him, and yet the screen graphic hilariously said that the riots were “fiery but mostly peaceful.”
• In another segment, a producer at CNN had to check themselves after a screen graphic described the protests in Kenosha as “violent.” That word was swiftly taken out a moment later.
• And who can forget Ali Velshi at MSNBC, standing in front of burning police building in Minneapolis, carefully noting that the protests were “not, generally speaking, unruly”?" . . .

Kamala Harris's dog whistle to rioters, looters, and arsonists

Only much later (August 30) did Joe Biden and Kamala Harris condemn the violence, while Biden challenged Trump to do the same. I guess they haven't been paying attention because President Trump condemned violence three months ago, and he condemned racism and white supremacy last year.

http://www.terrellaftermath.com/

Civis Americanus  "Kamala Harris, AKA "Mike Nifong in a Dress," wants to be vice president of the United States.  Given Joe Biden's age and apparent health, she could easily become president if he wins. Voters need to know about Harris's dog whistles in support of the violence that is ravaging cities around the country. Let's begin with Harris's verified tweet of June 1.

If you're able to, chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund  to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota.

The link goes to "Kamala Harris for the People," which says, "Make a donation to the Minnesota Freedom Fund. Your support will help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota."

Kamala, you're a lawyer, so you know full well that protesters do not need bail because protest is not a crime for which one can be legally arrested.  It is, in contrast, a federal crime to arrest somebody for the lawful exercise of his First Amendment right to protest.  Looters, rioters, vandals, arsonists, illegal road-blockers, disturbers of the peace, assailants, harassers, and carjackers need bail because they have committed crimes." . . .

GREAT NEWS: Democrat VP Choice Kamela Harris Raising Money for Arsonists, Terrorists and/or Looters   "It's only a matter of time until this tweet gets deleted."

"The polling must have been brutal for Democrats.

"They've gone from supporting the rioters, terrorists and anarchists to softly speaking out against them, all while blaming any left-wing violence on the Tangerine Man.

"To believe this you must fall into one of two camps: (a) the hate-filled anti-Trump Democrats and Never-Trumpers; or (b) those who work at CNN."

"No word if Kamela will help bail out the alleged murderer of the innocent Trump supporter in Portland. Hat tip: BadBlue Uncensored News."

What Is the Violence in American Cities All About?

Victor Davis Hanson

Why do city governments defund police departments at the very moment vulnerable residents are most fearful for their safety?

. . . "Millions of youths were sequestered in their apartments and basements, unemployed, without school, and worried over their career prospects. Many simply wanted to vent their rage at the world and almost everything in it.
"The media romanticized the “summer of love” unrest and downplayed the violence. Newspapers ran bizarre photo essays on the chic garb at the protests — umbrellas, leaf blowers, wooden shields, armor, and colored bike helmets.
"Many in the street seemed as interested in taking selfies as they were in smashing windows.
"Some cite furor directed at President Trump, the tensions of an election year, and the weaponization of almost every current issue by both political parties.
"Still others claim that the violence is mostly careerist-driven. Demands are made to fire ideological enemies and hire partisan friends. If the old guard is banished, then their lucrative billets can be snapped up by a new woke generation. Demagogues see political careers birthed with the bullhorn.
"None of these explanations are mutually exclusive. But all reflect confusion over why often-senseless vandalism has been directed at statues of Ulysses S. Grant and Frederick Douglass, and at the World War II Memorial.
"Why do liberal authors and artists fear there is a new McCarthyite cancel culture that threatens to take out even progressive sympathizers?" . . .

 BLM ‘activists’ celebrated as Trump supporter was killed: Devine

. . . "Videos posted by independent journalists Andy Ngo and Ian Miles Cheong show an American flag being burned in celebration as the crowd revels in the news.
     "Online video appears to show the murder. You can hear a man’s voice: “We got a couple right here.” And then two shots ring out.
    "The victim, identified as Aaron Danielson, reportedly was wearing the cap of conservative-libertarian group Patriot Prayer, whose caravan of pickup trucks festooned with flags drove through the city that day.
     "But because he was a supporter of President Trump, the victim did not deserve to live, according to BLM-Antifa." . . .

Portland's Mayor Ted Wheeler exhibits severe Trump Derangement Syndrome  

"Portland has been wracked with Antifa and Black Lives Matter violence for three months, aided by a supine Mayor Ted Wheeler.  A month ago, Mayor Ted Wheeler forced out federal agents who were pushing back against the militants.  However, when a leftist militant killed a Trump-supporter last night, Wheeler left reality behind and launched a full-throated anti-Trump attack, based upon every hoax the left has thrown at the president."

. . . "In the remainder of this post, I'll break down the bizarre fantasies that fill Wheeler's mind.  As you can see, he begins by implying that Trump-supporters cannot enter his city and, from there, goes on the attack:" . . .

"Wheeler's attack has to be heard (or read) to appreciate how devoid of reality it is:" . . .

When NBA, MLB And NHL Players Picked Jacob Blake To Be Their Saint, They Chose Poorly

Issues & Insights

     "The officer who shot Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin, has been tried and convicted by Democrats, the media, and truth-be-damned activists before the case is resolved. It’s a mirror image of the Michael Brown shooting (the officer was cleared) in Ferguson, Missouri, and the death in Minneapolis of George Floyd (the officer has yet to go to trial). The difference is this time, pro athletes, pampered and well-paid, joined the mob.
     "They should be ashamed of their behavior. They quit on the employers who pay their soaring salaries, and estranged themselves from their fans, who provide the dollars the owners use to compensate the players.
     The facts about the Blake case do not show a group of white officers taking advantage of a crisis situation so they could shoot another black man. Reports indicate a starkly different story – the policemen were there to protect a woman, a black woman, we’re assuming, based on what we’ve learned, from Blake.
    "Here’s what is being reported:

• Police were called to the scene because Blake was violating a restraining order, says the union that represents Kenosha officers.
• The restraining order was in place due to allegations Blake had sexually assaulted a woman after breaking into her home.
• The criminal complaint also said Blake also stole the woman’s automobile and debit card.
• State investigators found a knife on the driver’s side of Blake’s vehicle, where he was shot.
• The union says he had the knife in his hand when he was arrested.
• A still image from a video taken before he was shot shows Blake with something in his left hand that could be a knife.
• Before the shooting, Blake resisted arrest, fought with officers, placed one in a headlock, and was tased twice, in an effort to use non-deadly force to prevent the escalation that occurred.

"But the players couldn’t wait for the facts." . . .

Blaming the violence on Trump is a bridge too far

. . . "Indeed, the entire Democratic Party apparatus, now that it has strategically decided it better shift gears and publicly oppose the violence, is poised to blame the anarchy on Trump, not just because it is happening during his presidency but also because Democrats claim he is an evil racist who engenders an atmosphere of racism in the country."

David Limbaugh  "Democrats can try but won’t succeed at distancing themselves from the violence they have enabled on American streets. People surely know where the Democrats have stood on this, and that they’re now backpedaling only because of polling data.
     "Former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg outright blamed this anarchy on President Donald Trump. “The simple reality is that we are seeing more and more chaos and violence under the Trump presidency, and there’s no reason to expect that it would get any different or better if he were reelected,” said Buttigieg. “This is very much characteristic of living in Donald Trump’s America, and I think we’re going to see more and more of it as long as he’s in charge.”
     "To blame this violence on Trump because he’s in office is like blaming him for the border wall not being erected fast enough. It’s like blaming him for the economic slowdown caused by the coronavirus when, in fact, he has persistently tried, over strenuous Democratic obstruction, to sensibly and safely reopen our economy. It would be like blaming him for abortions because they have persisted during his first term despite his valiant efforts for the innocent unborn.
     "It is inconceivable that Buttigieg is unaware Democratic mayors and governors have all but encouraged this mayhem. Many have consistently rejected Trump’s offer of federal law enforcement assistance to quell the riots. Many have cavalierly misrepresented the violence as peaceful protests. Democratic CNN has called the Kenosha riots “fiery but mostly peaceful,” and the Democratic Virginia Senate just passed a bill allowing assaults on police officers to be mere misdemeanors, for crying out loud.
     "If Joe Biden or any other Democrat at the Democratic National Convention denounced the violence, I sincerely missed it.
     "Then, something happened. No, Democrats didn’t all of a sudden become outraged at the criminal assaults and property destruction against people whose only sin was to own businesses in a convenient location for Marxist arsonists and opportunistic looters.
     "Democrats apparently discovered through internal polling and focus groups that most Americans are appalled by this leftist orchestrated breakdown of law and order, and that they actually care about safe streets. Shocker.
     "CNN’s Don Lemon seems to have changed his mind on the riots — but not because he has had a law and order epiphany. “The rioting has to stop,” Lemon said. “It’s showing up in the polling. It’s showing up in focus groups. … it is the only thing right now that is sticking.' ” . .

Biden To Address Racial Tensions On Monday

Maybe? Pradheep Shanker believes the strategy will backfire on Biden because he’s not showing leadership and won’t provide specifics on how he’d stop the violence. It’s an understandable belief, however, Biden finds himself in a bit of a pickle when it comes to the issue of policing because he’s not in the #defundthepolice camp.
