“Border Czar” Kamala Harris Got Up and Walked Out of First Meeting with Mexican President on Border Security – Obrador Accuses Biden Admin of Orchestrating Coup

 The Gateway Pundit

"Things are not like they used to be.
"It was well known that Mexican president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and Donald Trump had a tremendous working relationship. Obrador helped President Trump hold illegal aliens in his country before their trial in the US and Trump rewarded Obrador and Mexico with a strong border policy.

"Those days are over.

""Today, under the Biden-Kamala administration, the US Border is wide open and the Mexican President is not pleased with the way the Biden administration is assisting cartel leaders in Mexico with their insane policies.

"On Friday Lopez Obrador accused the Biden administration of orchestrating a coup against his administration!" . . .

GRAPHIC VIDEO: Two Elderly Women Stabbed at San Francisco Bus Stop

Man charged with stabbing two Asian women in San Francisco  . . . "Patrick Thompson, 54, of San Francisco also was charged with  assault with a deadly weapon and elder abuse for Tuesday's attack, with sentencing enhancements for great bodily injury, great bodily injury on elders and personal use of a deadly weapon, the district attorney's office said in a statement.

"Thompson, who has a history of mental illness, could face a potential life sentence if convicted. He was scheduled to be arraigned on the charges Friday. The San Francisco public defender's office, which is representing Thompson, said it would be able to comment after the arraignment.

"A witness told KGO-TV that the man was carrying a large knife with knuckles on the handle and without warning attacked the women as they waited for a bus on Market Street.

" 'The knife punctured one victim’s lungs, requiring extensive surgery,” the district attorney’s office said. “A knife had to be removed from another victim at the hospital.” 

"Authorities initially said the women were 65 and 84 years old and didn't immediately identify them. But a family member said the elder victim was 85-year-old Chui Fong Eng." . . .

SF DA Chesa Boudin will likely side with the stabber, being the son of 60s antifa-type parents.

"Two elderly Asian women were stabbed this week while standing along San Francisco’s Market Street, according to video footage obtained by ABC 7’s Dion Lim.

“ 'I was also provided an image of the x-ray showing the weapon used. It was still inside Mrs. Chui Fong’s body at the time it was taken,” Lim said in a report Thursday." . . .

Old Coke, New Coke, Woke Coke, Broke Coke

William Sullivan

I have difficulty believing that. More likely, as Daniel Greenfield observes, Coke is destroying the pro-America brand association that it had been building for over a century because “it’s afraid” of the political forces aligning against it

. . . "In 1985, Coca-Cola executives opted to alter the company’s product to satisfy what they believed to be the progressive tastes of Americans. In the end, it was Americans’ loyalty to the company’s corporate brand that saved them from its executives’ decision to make sweeping changes to its product for the sake of perceived “progress.”

"There’s still a clear leader in the space of sugary soft drinks, and it remains Coca-Cola. But as Daniel Greenfield observes at FrontPage Magazine, Coke currently owns “a majority share of a declining market.” To address this crisis, Coca-Cola’s current executives have opted to alter the corporate brand in order to satisfy what they believe to be the progressive political desires of Americans, and it doesn’t appear that there is even a remote possibility that Americans’ loyalty to the product alone could ever save Coke from this stupid decision.

Kyle Rittenhouse's Attorney Looks at Chauvin 'Media-Gaslit Prosecution' and Wonders if He Can Get a Fair Trial

PJ Media

"One of the jurors in the Derek Chauvin trial says deliberations finding him guilty should have been over in 20 minutes, not hours. An alternate juror 

said she was worried about the riots if the jury came to the wrong decision. The Left’s antifa and BLM shock troops deployed to intimidate witnesses and jurors in Minneapolis. The mob remained outside the courthouse for the duration of the trial. The air was filled with police flash-bangs and the stench of flaming kerosene from Molotov cocktails on some nights. Even Maxine Waters* came to town to do some verbal bomb-throwing.

"And watching all of this is Robert Barnes, who is concerned about the “mob” justice he just witnessed in the trial of the former cop convicted of killing George Floyd. He believes his client, Kyle Rittenhouse, is the next victim of a political prosecution featuring the same media narrative-setting and mob behavior.

Newsmax Host Emerald Robinson Grills Psaki on Joe Biden’s Light Schedule

The Gateway Pundit

Newsmax White House correspondent Emerald Robinson stunned a dumbfounded Jen Psaki today by asking real questions during the White House presser.

"Psaki, who believes in restricting free speech in America, was not happy being questioned about Joe Biden’s pathetic administration.

"As Cristina reported earlier, Psaki repeatedly dodged questions about Joe Biden’s bizarre schedule that averages around 20 minutes of public appearances each day. NEVER, has America seen such a feeble Commander in Chief." . . .

HISTORY MADE: The Democrat-BLM War on Police and War on Civil Society Resulted in 25% More US Homicides in 2020 — HERE ARE THE RESULTS

In April 2020 Democrats, Black Lives Matter, Hollywood, NBA, the tech giants, and Major US Corporations launched their official War on Police across the United States.

  The Gateway Pundit  "In April 2020 Democrats, Black Lives Matter, Hollywood, NBA, the tech giants, and Major US Corporations launched their official War on Police across the United States.

"The consequences of their actions have been devastating, resulting in 1,990 more homicides in urban centers this past year.

"The Democrat War on Civil Society resulted in a 33% increase in homicides across the major urban centers across the United States." . . .

. . . "The Major City Chiefs Association’s year-end violent crime survey saw 1,990 more murders in 2020 than in 2019. This is an absolutely horrendous number. It is completely the result of the Democrat Party’s war on civility and civil society.

Cancelers canceled at Simon & Schuster

The media today are far more homogeneously left-wing and devoted to the destruction, not just the defeat, of their enemies.  And generations of brainwashed products of left-wing higher education have been weaned away from any understanding of the Constitution and the importance of civility.

 Thomas Lifson   "A small sign that cancel culture may have peaked, at least in book publishing, is worth noting.  The president of Simon & Schuster, Jonathan Karp, has announced that his firm will ignore a petition from its staff (reportedly, 216 employees and thousands of sympathizers) demanding that plans to publish an autobiographical memoir by former V.P. Mike Pence be canceled.

"Thomas Lipscomb, a publishing industry veteran, takes note and celebrates the act of courage in the Asia Times:

[T]he internal petition being circulated by Simon & Schuster employees is far more extensive. It is demanding categorical censorship irrespective of any underlying editorial merit. It wants to employ a heckler's veto to override the judgment of some of the finest editors in publishing in multiple imprints, even extending it to canceling totally independent distribution clients.

Simon & Schuster's president, Jonathan Karp, announced that his firm would go forward and publish Mike Pence's memoir. In the same letter he reminded his employees "… we come to work to publish, not cancel, which is the most extreme decision a publisher can make, and one that runs counter to the very core of our mission to publish a diversity of voices and perspectives."

Simon & Schuster's petitioners have now reached outside their own community looking for "solidarity" throughout publishing for their position.

. . . "Is Hawley beyond the pale but Pence barely acceptable?  Or is there a new commitment to resisting those who would narrow the range of discourse?  We don't know.

"What stood out for me, though, was the insight on the role of independent bookstore-owners in pushing cancel culture:" . . .

"Hugo the Abominable Snowman, an all-white character: Do we not have enough white characters already? On the plus side, he is called "abominable" so maybe he can stay as a reminder of white abominableness." . . .

Another sign Dems fear Ron DeSantis as a presidential contender

 Thomas Lifson   "Politico’s Playbook is a daily feature, sent by email to a large list of subscribers, heavily concentrated among professional political insiders. Companies “sponsor” it -- reportedly costing $60,000 a week in 2018 – in hopes of goodwill from the movers and shakers that read it.

"Friday’s Playbook (online here) was, as a friend wrote, “a ham handed effort to suggest to Republicans that he won’t win the White House, since he has not built up a strong team of advisors and treats aides badly.  It’s pretty obvious Dems fear him, as Politico is one of their many mouthpieces."

True Strength: My Journey from Hercules to Mere Mortal-and How Nearly Dying Saved My Life

" 'I just returned a pair of Nike shoes to the store. I complained that they hurt my feet when I stand for the [national anthem]," Sorbo wrote at the time."

Kevin Sorbo    "In this inspiring memoir, the star of Hercules shares the story of the sudden aneurysm and multiple strokes that left him incapacitated--but ultimately redefined his definition of success.

"On television, Kevin Sorbo portrayed an invincible demigod; in his real life, an aneurysm caused strokes that left him partially blind and incapacitated at just thirty-eight years old. Yet since appearances are everything in Hollywood, he hid the full details about his condition from the press and continued to film Hercules, which was the number one TV series in the world.

"True Strength is the story of transformation, persistence, and hope in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Sorbo reflects on his childhood in Minnesota and his early acting days in Hollywood, to his charmed life as television's beloved Hercules, and where he is today. He recounts the onset of his symptoms, his frightening hospitalization, and his arduous path to recovery. With this honest account of personal tragedy and triumph, Sorbo aims to blaze a trail for those who have ever suffered acute illness or a serious setback in life and are now struggling to find their way back."

“What happened to me was a gift,” Sorbo says. “God was trying to warn me. I didn’t listen, so he gave me a tap on the shoulder to slow down.”

Hercules: The Legendary Journeys (1995-1999) "One of the most overlooked, yet one of the most influential of all 90s genre series, 'Hercules: The Legendary Journeys' (1995-1999) was pure escapism in its finest form. It started out as more of a straight forward fantasy series, but over time it began to branch out to include other genres. The stylized reimagining of the classic hero captured fans' the world over."

Christian Actor Kevin Sorbo Is The Latest Conservative To Fall Victim To Big Tech Censorship   "Big Tech's silencing of conservatives rages on, and one of the latest high-profile personalities to have his right to free speech suppressed via account deletion is Christian actor Kevin Sorbo.

"Actor Kevin Sorbo said on Friday that his official account with over 500,000 followers was deleted by the tech giant Facebook.

"Newsbusters reported that Facebook did not respond to question on why they deleted Sorbo's account." . . .

Actor Kevin Sorbo says Facebook deleted his page with over 500,000 followers  . . . "In another article, Kevin Sorbo was reported to have blasted Hollywood's treatment of Gina Carano Saturday, which highlighted a producer who has worked with Disney and received no rebuke from the company when he fantasized about "MAGA kids" going "into the woodchipper." He highlighted Disney's hypocrisy for ignoring these kinds of behavior.

"Just so we're all clear, he still has his job at Disney," Serbo tweeted with a pic of producer Jack Morrissey's tweet on MAGA kids."

VCU student activist celebrates the shooting deaths of police officers, 'prays' for the death of Andy Ngo

The Post Millennial  "After the student body president of Virginia Commonwealth University was revealed to have advocated for the murder of cops, another student with far-left views at the college has celebrated the shooting deaths of law enforcement officers."  .  .  . 

"Last week, The Post Millennial reported that VCU student government president Taylor Marie Maloney, 20, has called for violence on social media and posted numerous racist statements.

"Maloney, who was championed by the American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia last month for being the "first openly transgender and non-binary person" elected to the position, advocated on Twitter for killing cops, rioting, looting, vandalism and arson.

"When two North Carolina deputies were shot dead last Wednesday by an active gunman, 19-year-old VCU student Knisya Shaheen Johnson, of Richmond, cheered in celebration. "Officers down," Johnson, also using an online moniker, tweeted with the party popper emoji."

Since the report that uncovered Maloney's extremist views, Johnson has prayed for the death of The Post Millennial's editor-at-large Andy Ngo. Johnson has used Twitter on several occasions to promote violence and organize Antifa meetings.

MSNBC panned for Joy Reid's ‘poop’ segment attacking Rep. Elise Stefanik

"Left-wing host, guests mock Republican lawmaker with toilet jokes"

Fox News  "Left-wing cable news network MSNBC came under fire Thursday following a perplexing segment on Joy Reid's show centered around "poop" jokes and attacking Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y. 

"Reid, the left-wing host well known for criticizing Republicans, was seemingly amused when former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, now a political analyst for MSNBC, resorted to using defecation references to attack Stefanik, the Republican Party, and former President Donald Trump. 

"The segment began with Reid going on a profanity-laced rant against Stefanik, calling her statements on election fraud in the 2020 election "bulls**t," questioning her past political support for anti-Trump Republicans, and claiming she was defrauding "Trumpy" voters by pretending to not be one of the most liberal Republicans." . . .

To the amusement of Joy Reid, MSNBC's supposedly civil and principled Republican Michael Steele says @EliseStefanik is made of poop and decided that Donald Trump's "golden toilet" that he "brought into the RNC" is actually "a swimming pool." pic.twitter.com/xx5iL5LtuE

Mainstream press stoking racial tension to paint 'whites as the enemy,'

 

Left and Media are Fomenting a Race War  . . . "At least the media haven’t politicized the weather reports —  yet. . . . 

. . . "The news and cable talk shows are brutal — all-partisan-politics-all-the time.

"Sports programs are almost as bad, thanks to their blind worship of the Black Lives Matter movement and its dangerous ideas.

"NBA coverage is the worst.

"You almost feel like you have to swear your allegiance to BLM or confess to being a lifelong racist before every tip off — which is why the NBA’s TV ratings for this year’s playoffs are in the toilet." . . .

Mainstream press stoking racial tension to paint 'whites as the enemy,' says Heather Mac Donald

Why the media loves the white racist story

Ignored in the process of labelling people racists and shaming them is that the shaming fails to condemn actions. Instead, it focuses on a single person. Condemning people gives them little room to change, grow or learn from their mistakes. Humility is needed on all sides.

CNN admits to terrorizing America with fear-mongering and crisis programming  "Charlie Chester, one of CNN‘s technical directors, was caught on tape admitting that the fake news network “got Trump out” by spreading lies and disinformation about his presidency.

"Among other deceptions aimed at steering the public into panic and unrest, CNN told its viewers to be afraid of President Trump – and many listened. Consequently, he was voted out of office through fraud and misdirection, complements of CNN." . . .

EVIDENCE: How CNN faked a story about Matt Gaetz, got caught, but still won’t remove it  . . . "Miller insisted: “This CNN story is complete fake news. No such scheduling or meeting request was ever made, and therefore, it could never have been declined. Take note that this story has zero on-the-record sources. It’s literally made-up. We are demanding a full retraction.”

"He added, in a second statement: “CNN has no on-the-record sources making this claim, no electronic or written or recorded evidence backing up this claim, it flat out never happened, and we demand a full retraction of this story. Who was the editor that allowed this to be printed???”

"That CNN failed to approach Miller in the first instance, forcing a post-publication correction would be bad enough." . . .

But the CNN editorial process failed on multiple levels:
