 I’m Thankful For Joy Reid

Others on the left come close, but no one is quite as good at representing, day in and day out, just how awful Democrats and the media have become. Watching Reid’s show is the surest way to get a sense of where the left’s depravity stands and where it’s headed. Her program has been a godsend in providing me with direction in explaining and answering any given lie that Democrats and the media are excitedly spreading.

The Media's Chickens Come Home to Roost in Wisconsin  . . ."There are consequences for incessantly demonizing people or teaching others they have a right to hate or to riot; for amplifying the message that one ethnicity is constantly oppressed or victimized by another; for telling people they are being hunted; and for amplifying the absolute bald-faced lie that white supremacy is the biggest threat Americans face.

"On Sunday night, the consequences of these lies, inflammatory rhetoric, and the media’s malice came home to roost.

"Brooks was behind the wheel of the SUV but the media helped get it started."

When did the Babylon Bee start writing headlines for the Washington Post?

"The "tragedy" (not "attack") was caused by the SUV.  

"Forget about blaming Darrell Brooks; he's a Black man and therefore cannot be blamed for anything he does.  Apparently, the WaPo has such contempt for African Americans that they have no personal agency.  They are merely the accompaniment to the actions of the machines they use.  The machines are the responsible party.  How dehumanizing is that!

"This vanished tweet is not some troll making fun of the WaPo.  It is real." . . .

James Madison U. Instagram Page Video Says Kyle Rittenhouse Killed Two Black People  “taking away two beautiful black lives at the ripe ages of 26 and 36”

"A jury found Rittenhouse not guilty in the killing of two white men named Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber. Rosenbaum was a convicted child rapist who can be seen on video yelling “shoot me n***a” at armed men. Huber was “found guilty of a felony for strangulation and suffocation, domestic abuse,” Heavy.com reported."

Spare us from guilt-ridden white liberals, many of whom support "Beto" O'Rourke, the quintessential guilt-ridden white liberal who apologizes for being born. TD

In a critical assessment of the Rittenhouse trial, Conrad Black denies that the outcome of the case vindicated the American justice system

. . .'The reason the judicial system has become so evil so fast is that the media abets violence against those they decide to destroy. And they will engage in this kind of mischief until a government, at the risk of media retaliation, reins them in. Although an attempt to keep the media from playing their incendiary games is not likely to happen any time soon, I don’t see how we can repair our justice system until such action is taken." . . .

For Chesa Boudin, it goes from bad to worse

But first: 7 Month Old baby Murdered After Radical DA Chesa Boudin Freed His Killer TWICE

 Monica Showalter  "Now that San Francisco has seen three days of smash-and-grab robberies on its remaining retailers, following the shutdowns of many more, he's making noises about being tough on crime.

"The problem for him?  Nobody's buying it.

"Here's what happened when he tried to organize a rally for himself in a bid to whip up public support against his recall." . . .

. . ."And that claim about the lootings happening all over, so no blame to him, is utter bee ess, too.  San Francisco is the nexus of the problem and much of it has spread to its suburbs such as Walnut Creek.  What's more, Chesa's lax-on-crime, let-'em-out stance is not San Francisco–specific.  Wherever Soros-financed district attorneys come to blue cities to roost, crime waves of this kind are happening.  San Francisco just had more fertile ground based on its being a progressive blue city for a lot longer and a lot loonier than most of them.  Play stupid games, get stupid prizes.

"The interview shows even more disconnect the more you read of it: he claims he's not soft on crime." Leading to this tweet:

Hilarious to watch Boudin freeze when asked a question on his ineffectiveness by a reporter that is not Chronicle-gullible. He's a Rhodes Scholar? Really? A speechless prosecutor?

Waukesha Suspect's Previous Release Agitates Efforts to Reduce Bail

Yahoo

"In early November, prosecutors in the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office made a fast, fateful decision, asking that bond for a 39-year-old repeat offender accused of brutalizing his girlfriend, then running over her with an SUV, be set at only $1,000.

"That call, one of many made in the city’s bustling criminal court that day, initiated a succession of events that ended, according to police, with that man, Darrell E. Brooks Jr., ramming his maroon Ford Escape through the barricades of a Christmas parade in nearby Waukesha, killing six people and injuring dozens more.

"The bail decision has brought criticism raining down on Milwaukee County’s district attorney, John T. Chisholm, a Democrat who has tried to reduce high rates of incarceration and racial disparities in the justice system. Longtime critics, led by Wisconsin’s previous governor, Scott Walker, blamed Brooks’ release on Chisholm’s “radical” liberal ideology.

"It appears, though, that the controversial release may have been not a policy decision but the result of happenstance and other factors — an inexperienced junior prosecutor and a rushed supervisor up against a huge backlog of cases that piled up during the coronavirus pandemic, according to court documents and interviews with judges, prosecutors, local officials and defense lawyers.". . .

Suspect Charged In Waukesha Tragedy Called For Violence Against White People

In a Facebook post in June 2020, shortly after the death of George Floyd, 39-year-old Darrell Brooks Jr. said that black people should knock “white ppl [the f-ck] out.”

When Black Lives Matter supporters made news in Wisconsin, they all boasted rap sheets. 

. . ."Joseph Rosenbaum? Child rapist. Jump Kick Man? Holder of a War and Peace criminal record. Anthony Huber? Domestic abuser. Does it not tell us something that all of the identifiable anti-police protestors encountering Kyle Rittenhouse in a violent way on August 25, 2020, boasted extensive criminal charges?"It turns out that many of the “protestors” condemning the police with the volume turned up loudest do so because the police thwarted their criminal behavior. A “duh” quality colors this revelation. Criminals hate cops. You don’t say?". . .

 

Independent Journalists Disprove Wicked Mainstream Media Lie that BLM Supporter Darrell Brooks’s Parade Attack was Accidental

. . ."Following the attack several fake news channels ran with the “report” that the killer missed his turn and “accidentally” barreled down the street. Other channels reported the killer was being chased by police when he ran over 60+ innocents.

"Of course this was all liberal media BS.

"And now, independent journalists at Bevo Fox simulated Darrell Brooks’s drive through the Waukesha Parade along with actual footage of his devilish attack on children and seniors."

"This is a brilliant video and proves the Waukesha killer was on a mission to murder as many innocents as was possible."

Addition by Subtraction at Fox News; "Stephen Hayes and Jonah Goldberg won’t be missed".

 Let’s hope that somebody is less “acceptable” and more willing to accurately assess the state of America brought on by two decades of weak-sauce conservatism’s constant retreating.

Source: The American Spectator  "I’m so old that I remember when Jonah Goldberg was primarily known for writing an excellent political book. Liberal Fascism, which came out in 2009, skillfully skewered the modern Left for its illiberal, statist tendencies. 

"One wonders if Goldberg shouldn’t reread his famous tome. Perhaps he’s repudiated it. He seems so determined of late to make himself useful to the people he once castigated.

"There’s a certain brand of weak-sauce conservative pundit, many of whom have populated the airwaves of cable news channels and other corporate media venues, which depends for its sustenance on remaining “acceptable” to those who are not conservatives. This brand has for two decades or more been recognizable by its willingness to make The Conservative Case for virtually every kind of leftist policy aggression.

"And for its constant scolding of others within the Republican Party or conservative movement.

"For a time, that Mean Girls repertoire was defensible, in that the Right could supposedly boast of better quality control than the Left. Political figures and culture-makers on the Right were held to a higher standard, and the Right’s self-policing, we were told, kept the conservative movement closer to the center.

"But meanwhile, the scolds and “acceptable” conservatives who populated our media and cultural institutions were so busy picking up checks and seeking to please decision-makers who didn’t agree with them that they failed to fight for those institutions.

"All of which have become so hostile not just to conservatives but to ordinary Americans that we’re no longer even welcome there." . . .

Are You Thankful for America? Then Fight for Her

 Townhall

"See? Your life and the lives of your children are just necessary casualties in pursuit of progressive ideologies that protect criminals and leave law-abiding citizens vulnerable."

"With Democrats in control of Congress and the White House, aided and abetted by a relentlessly partisan (and deceitful) media, the left is on the march. They're going to usher in a new order, by hook or by crook. They are dismantling the foundation of this country as fast as they can, and what's going to be left once they're done "building back better" is going to be devoid of decency, much less anything else of value.

The left favors poverty over prosperity, incompetence over skill, ignorance over experience, theft over commerce, arsonists over property owners, predators over children and criminals over law-abiding citizens. This isn't hyperbole; look at their policies, the people they put in positions of power, those they praise and those they prosecute.

"By contrast, the numbskulls in the Biden administration constrict oil production, send prices of gas and consumer goods soaring and then blame it on OPEC and the oil companies. President Joe Biden's unconstitutional vaccine mandate is causing walkouts among pilots, hospital personnel, police forces and truckers, at a time when we need all these workers badly. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg takes paternity leave in the middle of a supply chain crisis. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm laughs when asked what the Biden administration is doing about oil prices and admits she has no idea how much oil the country uses daily. Vice President Kamala Harris' evident lack of ability has become the stuff of daily meme mockery, but she outdid herself with her recent "explanation" of inflation. ("Prices ... have gone up.")" . . .

Criminal justice "reform" by Democrats

 

‘Experts’ Want You to Stop Using the Word ‘Looting’ to Describe Robberies in San Francisco  This writer agrees.  . . ." Looting in the penal code: “theft or burglary…during a ‘state of emergency’, ‘local emergency’, or ‘evacuation order’ resulting from an earthquake, fire, flood, riot or other natural or manmade disaster.”

"Also, if you watch the videos, you can tell these people coordinated the robberies. I don’t think this is looting at all. They planned out the robberies.

"HOWEVER! This has nothing to do with linguistics. The left always twists definitions to fit their narrative. For example, they are not liberal or progressive!

"This has everything to do with them making it about race because that’s their ride or die." . . .

Conrad Black: Kenosha Prosecutors Exemplify the Problem with America’s Justice System  "It is undoubtedly true that the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse in Kenosha, Wisconsin on Friday was a victory over dishonest and overreaching prosecutors, over a largely dishonest national media, and over the same elements that produced mob rule in Kenosha in the summer of 2020. 

"The jurors, in their questions and their diligence, clearly overcame the immense media bias against Rittenhouse, and the intermittent chanting and howling by mobs outside the courthouse of often rather explicit threats against the jurors if they did not convict. The case was widely misrepresented as a trial of white-supremacist vigilantism intruding into Wisconsin from outside to aggravate the oppression of blacks in Kenosha. The jurors deduced that the defendant was invited to Kenosha by his family, had been asked to help defend an automobile dealership in the event of violence, was a legal carrier of the specific weapon that he owned, which was legally in the home of relatives in Kenosha.

"The initial portrayal of the case, including by then-candidate Joe Biden, of white supremacist violence, was exposed as defamatory fiction, and even the prosecution witnesses powerfully contributed to the perception that Rittenhouse, who was 17 years old at the time of the incident, had acted in self-defense. It emerged that he was a very well motivated and presentable young man, a good kid, and in no way a troublemaker or a bigot, contrary to what was instantly claimed by most of the media, all the way up to and through the trial.

Thanksgiving cheer: Joe Biden snubs Kamala at soup kitchen dish-out

 Monica Showalter  "For most of us, the Thanksgiving holiday is a time for fellowship, gatherings, good cheer, feasting, gratitude, and charity.

"But then there's the Biden White House, where Joe and Kamala put on a public show at a soup kitchen demonstrating they can't stand each other.

"According to the New York Post:

President Biden seemed to snub Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday as they helped prepare meals at a DC soup kitchen during their first public appearance together in more than a week.

Biden made no attempt to demonstrate any fondness for his VP in front of the cameras after Harris allies slammed Biden to CNN last week for giving her tough jobs, such as handling the border crisis, and accused the West Wing of giving her less support than white members of the administration. . .

. . ." Notice that Jill is ordering Kamala around in the scenario, too, not exactly a sign of respect for Harris's office." . . .

Meet Ray Epps: The Fed-Protected Provocateur Who Appears To Have Led The Very First 1/6 Attack On The U.S. Capitol

 Revolver

If Revolver News’s previous reporting points to a proactive role of the federal government in relation to the conspiracy cases against Oath Keepers and Proud Boys, the Ray Epps story that follows suggests a similar, yet more egregious, explicit, direct and immediate degree of federal involvement in the breach of the Capitol itself.

. . ."The story of the mystery man, Ray Epps, featured in Rep. Massie’s video above is in fact far more shocking than even the good Congressman implies in the hearing. It’s a story so strange, and so scandalous at every turn, that it threatens to shatter the entire official narrative of the “Capitol Breach” and expose yet another dimension of proactive federal involvement in the so-called “insurrection” of January 6th."  Video

"Here is a transcript of Thomas Massie’s exchange with the Attorney General, just in case you skipped past the video above.". . ."

. . ."Epps didn’t stop at simply confirming his presence at the Capitol. Epps effectively corroborated on record that he was the exact same man telling Trump supporters they needed to go inside the Capitol." . . .

Did Provocateurs Spark The January 6 Protest At The Capitol?

. . ."Tucker Carlson has turned this Revolver exposé into a documentary available on Fox Nation. Since Tucker began promoting his documentary, America’s ruling class, anticipating what would be seen, suffered exploding head-itis, metaphorically speaking. Folks like RINO Adam Kinzinger, Mitt Romney, Lindsey Graham, Liz Cheney, and Ben Sasse on the right, and Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Eric Swalwell, Adam Schiff, Mark Warner, Ted Lieu, and David Cicilline on the left, are beside themselves. One can only imagine, then, what all those Deep-State functionaries at America’s mainstream media networks are going through." . . .

Darrell Brooks Jr.: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

Heavy.com  "Darrell Brooks Jr. is the registered sex offender with two open cases and an extensive criminal history who is now charged with five counts of first-degree intentional homicide in the Waukesha Christmas parade rampage Wisconsin that left 60 people injured.

"The 39-year-old Brooks, a felon many times over, was identified by Waukesha Police Chief Daniel Thompson at a press conference on November 22, 2021, as the suspect in the tragedy. Thompson said Brooks was driving the red SUV that plowed into the parade participants, a scene captured in graphic videos; he had been involved in a “domestic disturbance” not long before he is accused of driving into the holiday parade route and left that scene before police arrived. He was not being chased by officers before entering the parade route, Thompson said.

"Read the criminal complaint against Brooks here. It describes how two detectives tried to stop him to no avail.

"They said he was driving 25 miles an hour and “had no emotion on his face” as he accelerated. He could have made a right turn out of the parade route but instead began to “rapidly accelerate” into the crowd of parade participants, the complaint says. The officer believed “this was an intentional act to strike and hurt as many people as possible…He observed the vehicle appeared to be intentionally moving side to side, striking multiple people, and bodies and objects were flying from the area of the vehicle.”

"A witness told police the SUV drove in a “zig zag motion. It was like the SUV was trying to avoid vehicles, not people. There was no attempt made by the vehicle to stop, much less slow down. Another witness aid he felt it was a “direct intent to hit as many parade participants.”

"In court during Brooks’ first appearance on November 23, 2021, the district attorney of Waukesha County, Sue Opper, revealed that Brooks also had a family violence arrest in Georgia while he was out on $500 bail in the first Milwaukee County case, which accused him of shooting toward a family member’s car after an argument. In addition, he had an active warrant from Nevada for non-compliance as a registered sex offender for the past five years. Despite those things, when he was accused of trying to run a woman over at a gas station a few days before the parade tragedy, he was released on $1,000 bail." . . .

Actress Helen Mirren Branded a ‘Racist’ For Playing Israel’s Only Female Leader Golda Meir…

 Stand tall, Dame Helen! I beg you to never apologize to the demagogues. 

Weasel Zippers

Via Daily Caller:

Dame Helen Mirren has been subjected to a torrent of abuse for appearing as Israel’s only female leader in a forthcoming biopic.

Internet trolls branded the Oscar-winning actress ‘racist’ and described her as a ‘well known Zionist and Israel-worshipper’ after taking on the role of wartime prime minister Golda Meir.

The film, Golda, is set during the Yom Kippur War in 1973 when Arab states attacked Israel.

Dame Helen described Meir as ‘a formidable, intransigent and powerful leader’ and said it was ‘a great challenge to portray her at the most difficult moment of her extraordinary life’.

But critics on social media described the production as ‘fascism’, ‘sick’ and ‘tasteless’.

One Twitter user, who said they were ‘Palestinian and proud’, wrote: ‘How sick making a biopic on criminal Golda Meir and yes no surprise Helen Mirren the racist is happy to portray the pure distorted version of a disgusting individual.’
