There’s A Reason No One [but Hollywood?] Likes Kamala Harris

 If Harris really wanted to make an analogy, as weak as it is, she should have used the assassination of JFK. . . But the assassination of JFK was committed by a leftist, a devout communist. In other words, someone on their team.

There’s A Reason No One Likes Kamala Harris (townhall.com)   "Most people look at the choice of Kamala Harris for Vice President and scratch their head. “Why would anyone pick a person so wildly devoid of political talent or even the basics of likability?” they wonder. The conventional wisdom is that she checked the right number of boxes to fulfill left-wing interest group demands, which is partially true, of course. Overlooked, however, is how there is one more, rather good and important reason Joe Biden, or really any politician would pick someone like Harris: because by comparison, you’ll always look better.

"Harris is such a singularly grating personality that she polls lower than lemon juice on an open wound. Death by wood chipper is less likely to incur the wrath of human rights activists for torture than forcing someone to listen to Kamala’s speeches. If you’re an incompetent politician, partnering with someone possessing all the public charm and warmth of explosive diarrhea means you will always come off better than you otherwise would because the alternative is so horrible. 

"That’s what, and all, Kamala Harris brought to the ticket

"If anyone needed another example of how awful she is, her speech on Thursday provided it. Just the first three paragraphs show how unlikable, opportunistic and hypocritical she really is. Let’s take a look." . . .

"Kamala tweeted amid a 51-mile traffic jam just outside DC, "Because of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, America is moving again. That's what infrastructure is all about: getting people moving."  Now we know why Willie dumped her. Never marry stupid."  Don Surber

Why America's Ruling Class Is So Incompetent

 The Federalist

Elites are inevitable; their legitimacy and continuity is not. Ours lack the virtue and wisdom needed for good governance and leadership.

"Our national elite is united enough to have the vices of a ruling class, but not the virtues. In particular, they are cohesive enough to be perceived as oppressive by much of the populace, but they are rarely gracious and conciliatory when needed. They know how to make enemies, but not friends.

"Culturally and ideologically, America’s elites have consolidated into a regime, with Big Tech, the legacy media, academia, Big Business, the entertainment industry, and, of course, the leaders of the Democratic Party, all singing from the same hymnal, even if they sometimes squabble over the key. But many citizens refuse to join in." . . .

But the superlative merits of our ruling class are less obvious to the rest of us. Thus, hardly a day goes by without The New York Times, Washington Post, and other legacy media outlets warning that some villain or other — Donald Trump, Fox News, Facebook misinformation, the Senate, the Supreme Court, even local leaders and parents — is a Threat to Our Democracy! By democracy, they mostly mean the wishes of the ruling class.

. . ."But as unbelievable as the story turned out to be, it wasn’t nearly as egregious and damaging as the falsehoods that the “wise Latina” spouted during oral arguments over Biden’s OSHA vaccine “mandate.”

"The most glaring false claim Sotomayor made is that the “vaccines” stop the spread of Covid-19 — and particularly, the Delta and Omicron variants. This is not even close to being true.

"Sotomayor doubled down on deception with an easily disprovable statement on child hospitalizations.

“ 'We have over 100,000 children, which we’ve never had before, in serious condition, and many on ventilators,” she claimed." . . .

Joe Biden, the Divider in Chief, (unknowingly) kicks off the campaigns of the GOP and President Trump

Dark Angel (darkangelpolitics.blogspot.com)

Rajan Laad  "It has been almost a year since Joe Biden has occupied the White House and almost every campaign promise he made has melted into thin air.

"Among those promises was a pledge to restore decency and to unite the country. He conveniently ignored the fact that his party is the reason for the divide and hate. But truth or facts are never an impediment for Democrats while peddling false narratives.

“ 'We can join forces, stop the shouting and lower the temperature. For without unity there is no peace, only bitterness, and fury. No progress, only exhausting outrage. No nation, only a state of chaos. This is our historic moment of crisis and challenge, and unity is the path forward,” Biden said in his January 6 speech. ". . .

. . ."If Larry Elder and Candice Owens are White supremacists, the term is rendered meaningless; hence real White supremacists and Neo-Nazis manage to fly under the radar.

After Kamala, Biden proceeded to viciously and personally attack President Trump and his supporters. It wasn’t just the content of the speech but the unhinged manner with an undercurrent of violence in which it was delivered that was disturbing.

Obviously, neither Harris nor Biden had anything to do with the contents of their respective addresses. They merely read (or struggled to read) off the teleprompter.

The speeches were authored by lackeys of the Democrat establishment who realize Biden’s disastrous record has given them nothing else to boast about.  Hence they rely on overstatements to rile up their base and hopefully goad fence-sitters.

The actual coup began in 2016 and has continued ever since

For a long time, the media have gone from informing the public to indoctrinating the public. They are willing to pretend lies are the truth and bury truthful stories in their efforts to infect the public with radical leftist policies. They are willing to do whatever it takes to remake and destroy America. That makes them enemies of the American people, doesn't it?

 American Thinker  "Starting in 2016, the Obama-Biden Executive Branch, the Judicial Branch, and the Democrats in the Legislative Branch set out to defeat Donald Trump before the election, and when that didn't work, they made endless attempts to get rid of the duly elected president after the election. 

"It all centered on the Big Lie that Trump colluded with Russia.  The public was told continually that Trump was a Russian agent or spy or whatever name they decided to use at the time. 

"The politicized Justice Department used the obviously fictitious Russian dossier when they lied repeatedly to the FISA court to get multiple warrants to spy on people in the Trump team.  The FBI officials who perpetrated a fraud on the FISA court still roam free because they are special.  They are above the law." .  . .

. . ."Democrats don't want a federal takeover of elections because they care about minorities, voter rights, or voter suppression.  They only care about power and winning.  They will do anything to destroy people who get in their way.

"For a long time, the media have gone from informing the public to indoctrinating the public.  They are willing to pretend lies are the truth and bury truthful stories in their efforts to infect the public with radical leftist policies.  They are willing to do whatever it takes to remake and destroy America.  That makes them enemies of the American people, doesn't it?" . . .

That’s the reason [Jordan] and Banks are not on [the January 6] committee right now. They would have some pretty tough questions for her — how we managed to have such lax security knowing there was probably going to be some people in D.C. that day. There are a lot of unanswered questions.”. . .

The consequences have been over 200,000 illegal migrants entering the United States across the southern border most months and the rise in the price of gasoline from approximately $2 a gallon to $5 a gallon across the country." . . .       

8 Times Left-Wing Protesters Assaulted Government Buildings (thefederalist.com)

 The Federalist

Left-wing demonstrators have long made a habit of attacking, infiltrating, and occupying government buildings.


"Self-absorbed congressional Democrats held a group therapy session on Capitol Hill on Thursday as they work tirelessly to immortalize Jan. 6 as an annual day of doom, but the rest of us are old enough to remember a few more times when riots and protests overwhelmed government buildings with no such theatrical response.

"More than a few times, actually. The 2020 summer of rage was more or less “incited” by these same top Democrats, who race-baited as if their lives depended on it, and even our vice president, who helped bail violent rioters out of jail. It featured a number of these attacks on the government (which strangely weren’t called attacks on democracy at the time).

"Not all of these demonstrations were allegedly a response to the Minnesota death of George Floyd, however. Left-wing Minnesota death of George Floyd, however. Left-wing demonstrators have long made a habit of attacking, infiltrating, and occupying government buildings. It started long before Jan. 6, 2021, and continued long after." . . .



Joy Reid To Lose MSNBC Show In The Spring: Report

 Conservative Brief


"Arguably one of the most radical liberals in the mainstream media could be on her way out.

"MSNBC host Joy Reid may no longer have a show on the network this spring following a round of reshuffling.

"News Cycle Media’s Jon Nicosia reported on Twitter that a Comcast source said “Joy Reid will lose her 7p show in the next round of reshuffling at MSNBC.”

"“Source @ Comcast: ‘Joy Reid will lose her 7p show in the next round of reshuffling at MSNBC.’ – ‘She does not have a show come mid Spring’ – The “decision has been made, the only thing left is messaging on the move, which will be ratings,” Nicosia tweeted." . . .

"She will scream racism pretty soon,” predicted one Twitter user.

"Joy Reid is retiring to spend more time with her gay friends and track down the person who hacked her account,” wrote Davar Echad, poking fun at Reid’s less-than-forthcoming comments about old posts on her blog critical of same-sex marriage. 

“‘We’re going to miss Joy Reid,’ said no one ever,” summarized one individual.

Statue of Iranian Terror Chief Qasem Soleimani Torched Hours After Being Unveiled

 

Iran vows revenge for Soleimani killing if Trump not put on trial - Iran - Haaretz.com

Statue of Iranian Qasem Soleimani Torched Hours After Being Unveiled (breitbart.com)   "Iran’s effort to deify terrorist mastermind Gen. Qasem Soleimani on the second anniversary of his death in a U.S. airstrike hit a snag Thursday when a statue of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commander was set on fire by persons unknown within hours of its unveiling in the southwestern city of Shahrekord.

"The statue, which portrayed Soleimani as a towering, visionary leader, was set ablaze on the evening of the same day it was revealed to the public." . . .

. . ."Despite Iran’s frequent claims to the contrary, Soleimani’s status as a legitimate military target has never been seriously disputed. Iraqi Shiite militia coordinated by the IRGC general launched several rocket attacks on bases housing U.S. personnel in the weeks before his death. One of those attacks killed a civilian U.S. military contractor.

"Before that, Soleimani was responsible for organizing attacks that killed hundreds of Americans deployed to Iraq." . . .

By setting the statue on fire, the Iranian dissidents have shown better moral judgement than the U.S. mainstream media and leading Democrats, who vehemently attacked President Trump for killing the terrorist operative who had the blood of American soldiers on his hands.
