Adam Kinzinger Proves Just How Much Tucker Carlson Has Broken Him

 RedState  "Never Trump politicians like Rep. Adam Kinzinger (RINO-IL) seem to have a common problem — they’re not the brightest bulbs in the shop and they have difficulty being honest about the facts. That perhaps explains why they have the political position they have.

"Kinzinger came out with a comment about Tucker Carlson and you’ll see the immediate problem with it.

“Now that we have seen evidence of mass graves in Ukraine, and pictures of the atrocities against civilians, We should demand @TuckerCarlson answer for his support of this war, as well as those Congressmen who have done the same. @GOPLeader should demand accountability,” Kinzinger tweeted.

"Now, first of all, this is just false. Tucker Carlson does not “support” the war. Indeed he condemned the war on his show on March 21, noting that he was rooting for the Ukrainians to boot the Russians. What he had expounded on was whether or not it was our fight and to what extent we should be involved. Plus perhaps there were other priorities that we might have. Kinzinger can’t understand the difference. So Kinzinger is just wrong, as he generally is.

"But second, so what if he did “support” it? We don’t go after people for “wrong think” in this country. If we did, we’d be like Vladimir Putin and Russia. That’s what Kinzinger is advocating — that the government go after private citizens — a member of the media even — and demand he act in political compliance with what Kinzinger says. That even members of Congress who might disagree with him should be punished for not being in line with the narrative. Can you get more fascistic and Putin-like than that? How is that free speech? Isn’t that suppressing the media? This is a failure on Kinzinger’s part to understand his role as a member of Congress and the Constitution that he allegedly swore to uphold. What Kinzinger is pushing is not America.

"This is the same guy who Tucker invited on his show to give him the chance to say his piece but Kinzinger wimped out because he couldn’t handle the action. He knew he would get sliced and diced.". . . 

The permanent powerful position of Pothole Pete

Biden’s view on economics – “If you spend $50,000 on an EV, 

you can save $80/month, or $960 a year. You’ll break even in only 52 years!”

Buttigieg: Get used to gas prices until we achieve 'energy independence that is based on clean energy' (bizpacreview.com)  "By now it should be clear that the Biden administration isn’t going to do anything about skyrocketing gas prices outside of symbolic gestures like tapping the Strategic Petroleum Reserve because the pain at the pump serves as its best argument for ushering in the transition to electric vehicles, a key component of the president’s green agenda.

"While Biden, Democrats and their advocates in the media are spinning the crushing blow to American household budgets by blaming it all on Vladimir Putin, the truth is that gas prices were already at the highest level in years well before Russian tanks rolled across the Ukrainian border, a result of administration policies that are hostile to the domestic fossil fuel industry including the cancelation of the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office.

"The indifference from Biden and his top cabinet members toward the suffering of real Americans is exemplified by the words of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg who shrugged off the very real concerns of the little people, essentially saying to get used to being gouged until the U.S. adapts the utopian provisions of the Green New Deal and clean energy.". . .

AOC stands exposed, once again

What is unfortunate is that despite her blatant sanctimoniousness, her disingenuousness, and her act, her progressive constituents will vote her back to power over and over again. Unless she finds career activism rather than politics more lucrative, she may even end up becoming Speaker of the House someday. 

 American Thinker  "Most people remember last year's Met Gala, which the New York Times called "the party of the year" not only for the ostentatious display but for the blatant hypocrisy displayed by myriad Democrat attendees.

"A perfect example of this band of hypocrites is the leader of ‘The Squad’, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

"During the day she pontificates about the dire need to uplift the poor, the downtrodden, minorities, and her favorite illegal immigrants. AOC relentlessly whines about income inequality and the need for draconian tax measures against the affluent.

"The issues she stands for always have three-word slogans such as ‘Tax the Rich, ‘Defund the Police’ etc.

"AOC even pulled a Smollett when she exaggerated her “traumatic experience" from the Capitol protests, claiming Trump supporters were hunting for her and that she feared rape. Later, facts emerged that she was not at the site, but at a nearby office building.

"She also has an inflated opinion of herself. After being mocked on Twitter for being ‘maskless‘ at a restaurant in Florida, despite being a fervent advocate of masks and for her boyfriend’s garish choice of footwear, AOC devoid of any self-awareness or hesitation declared that her critics are angry since they can’t date her.

"Despite being a prominent member of Congress, AOC is in permanent victimhood mode, especially when anybody offers a valid critique of her word salads. She frequently refers to herself as a persecuted woman of color clubbing herself with other persecuted groups.

"But when the media is away and the cameras are turned off, matters are drastically different.

"AOC is seen prancing around in very expensive designer dresses at parties such as the Met Gala where tickets are priced at $35,000 per head.". . .

“ 'NO YOU CAN’T HAVE PICTURES OF MY FEET, YOU CREEPY REPUBLICAN WEIRDO!” shouted AOC in response. “You need therapy, won’t do it, and then you take out your sexual frustrations on women of color like me! Unbelievable.' ”. . .

Women "Are About To Diversity And Inclusion And Equity Themselves Out Of Existence"

Delano Squires: Women "Are About To Diversity And Inclusion And Equity Themselves Out Of Existence" | Video | RealClearPolitics

"Blaze TV's Delano Squires said women have "finally found a group of men they are willing to submit to" with trans women in an interview with FOX News host Tucker Carlson on Friday.

" 'This has consequences, it's not simply about one group of people and their fight for recognition or equality or whatever the point is. We are redefining sex. What does that mean for the civilization?" Carlson asked.

" 'I  think when you hear the president use the term 'made in the image of God,' right," Squires started, "God made male and female and whether you believe in genesis or genetics, that is what everyone has believed basically up until seven years ago."


" 'One of the big problems with this is that this entire movement has been aided and abetted, I would say primarily by two groups. One, some of the most powerful women in media, journalism, politics, business, whether they work at CNN or MSNBC or 'New York Times,' who have spent an entire career talking about how hard it's been as a woman to achieve equality. And then they've allowed themselves to be cowed into silence by a small group of men who are experiencing mental health challenges and a large group of craven activists," Squires said.

"  'For women like Joy Reid, or Rachel Maddow, or Jamele hill, again, whether they work for ESPN or MSNBC, they finally found a group of men they are willing to submit to because when Rachel Levine speaks and when Lia Thomas speaks, these women feel that they have to be silent," Squires said to Carlson.

" 'So in effect, they are about to diversity and inclusion and equity themselves out of existence," he concluded.". . .

Biden wish for Trump prosecution leaked as Democrats mount pressure campaign on DOJ

 Biden wish for Trump prosecution leaked as Democrats mount pressure campaign on DOJ | Washington Examiner   "A new report claims President Joe Biden has told people he wants former President Donald Trump to be prosecuted.

"The leak was published in the New York Times on Saturday as Democrats mount increasing pressure on the Justice Department to take action against Trump and people within his orbit in relation to the Capitol riot. At focus are Attorney General Merrick Garland and his "deliberative approach," as the report put it, which is causing frustration.

"As recently as late last year, Mr. Biden confided to his inner circle that he believed former President Donald J. Trump was a threat to democracy and should be prosecuted, according to two people familiar with his comments," the report read. "And while the president has never communicated his frustrations directly to Mr. Garland, he has said privately that he wanted Mr. Garland to act less like a ponderous judge and more like a prosecutor who is willing to take decisive action over the events of Jan. 6."

"Just what Trump would be prosecuted for is unclear. However, the House committee investigating the Capitol riot says its investigators have reason to believe Trump and his associates broke multiple laws in efforts to overturn the 2020 election. In a recent court filing for John Eastman, a Trump-linked conservative lawyer, the panel said it has evidence to show Trump may have engaged in a criminal conspiracy to defraud the United States and illegally impede Congress's counting of electoral votes.

"Nevertheless, the House committee can only make a criminal referral, leaving the onus on the Justice Department.

"Trump and his associates have repeatedly denied any criminality related to the Capitol riot, which took place on the day Congress met to certify Biden's 2020 election victory, and its surrounding events. One former aide, Steve Bannon, has been indicted on contempt charges for refusing to comply with subpoenas from the Jan. 6 committee, while another, former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, has so far escaped prosecution.

"White House spokesman Andrew Bates offered comment for the article, insisting that Biden "is immensely proud of the attorney general’s service in this administration and has no role in investigative priorities or decisions.". . .

When politicians and media can't get enough division, they fabricate it

 When politicians and media can't get enough division, they fabricate it - American Thinker  "In 2016, a YouTube movie review channel known as RedLetterMedia posted a video discussing the deceits surrounding, and controversy at the time regarding, the new Ghostbusters movie, featuring four female protagonists in replacement of the original all-male cast.  The nature of their video could be used to illustrate how much our current-day politics suffers from the same types of deceptions. ". . .

. . ."Then Sony handpicked reviewers and bloggers to attend early screenings of the film.  Apparently, they paid people to see the movie once it came out and lie about how much they enjoyed it.

So one can begin to see how relatively simple it is to create a narrative.  Ultimately, there was an insignificant number of hateful comments posted, and Sony, along with its accomplices in the entertainment media, exacerbated a minuscule issue, besmirching American culture and society in the process.  According to Mike Stoklasa at RedLetterMedia, "they were able to ignite a fraudulent movement based on a dumb, unfunny 'comedy' film."

Now, who is to say that our government and their lackeys in the mainstream media do not do the exact same sort of thing on a daily basis for the purpose of misleading the public on a whole host of issues?  Remember when Democrats besmirched the TEA Party (who merely felt they were being overtaxed) by claiming to have seen saw swastikas at their rallies?  There was no evidence of this, but it did not matter.  It made it into the zeitgeist anyway.  The same thing happened with the Michael Brown "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" fiasco, which happened very differently from how it was reported.  Who could forget how NBC News doctored George Zimmerman's call regarding Trayvon Martin in an effort to make Zimmerman look racist?  I recall when an MSNBC reporter referred to Black Lives Matter protests in Minneapolis as "mostly peaceful" while buildings burned behind him.  Look at how quickly people were willing to buy into Jussie Smollett's bald-faced lie that he was assaulted by racist MAGA supporters.

Remember this when the powers that be try to tell you there is a racist white supremacist behind every tree, that there is a rape culture on college campuses, that there are widespread weekly school shootings, or that there is an epidemic of police shooting unarmed black people, or that "trans women" are women while "Lia Thomas" crushes the competition, or the current "gay" misinformation campaign regarding Florida's recent anti-grooming bill, despite that fact that the word "gay" is nowhere within it, or that the "science" declares for safety that we wear masks, lockdown for years, get a mandatory vaccine (or get fired), get mandatory booster after booster, et cetera, et cetera.

Looking for a Democrat who stands up to the crazies? Here he is

 Looking for a Democrat who stands up to the crazies? Here he is - American Thinker

"Over the last 15 months, Rep. Henry Cuellar of South Texas has been a loud critic of President Biden's border policies, such as eliminating Title 42.  Cuellar was one of two Democrats in Texas to say no!

"On another matter, Mr. Cuellar is refusing to go along with his party.  This is from The Texas Tribune:

U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar, a moderate Democrat from Laredo, broke with his party to vote against a landmark marijuana legalization bill on Friday that passed in the House. Only one other Democrat voted against it.

Cuellar, who is currently in a fierce runoff for his 10th term against progressive attorney Jessica Cisneros, has long infuriated progressive Democrats with his conservative positions on many social issues. 

The Laredo politician opposes abortion and was the lone Democrat to vote against federal abortion rights [sic] legislation last fall.

"Yes, Mr. Cuellar is making it easy for the AOC wing of the party to hate him, opposing open borders, marijuana, and abortion.

"Mr. Cuellar may pay a price for his conservatism or independence.  He is fighting to keep his seat in a party runoff.

"At the same time, Mr. Cuellar may know his district better than we do.  It is a culturally conservative section of Texas trending Republican, in large part because of the Democrat party's attack on the 2nd Amendment, support of abortion, and open borders.

"Last, but not least, Mr. Cuellar could switch parties and come to our side.  My guess is that he'll have more in common with us than the woke Democrats."

Not Everything Is Ideology, Disney

 Before ruining a company that seemed impossible to ruin, these insane Disney executives should have read G. K. Chesterton, or anything at all really, and then put up a big neon sign over their headquarters, bearing the words of the old English writer: “That is the one eternal education: to be sure enough that something is true that you dare to tell it to a child.”

Not Everything Is Ideology, Disney - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  "No matter what kind of attitude you adopt on the street, the way you dress, the speed you choose to drive at, or the words you use to address the shopkeeper, someone will be watching and forming a political opinion about you. We live in a time when even going to the supermarket to buy a chicken can become a heinous, militant ideological act, even if the chicken is not right-wing. From sports to social relations, everything is tainted by ideology.

"Any practice that has not managed to transcend into some kind of political idea has fallen into historical disuse, and the resulting world is of such ideological intensity that we are left exhausted by the end of the day. I go to sleep and before I close my eyes, I think: ‘And how should I be doing this from a conservative point of view?’

"Yes, we have gone crazy. Or rather, we’ve been driven crazy. By whom? Them. Because if there is another characteristic of contemporary ideological confrontation, it is the simplification of any problem to two sides: the good guys and the bad guys. I don’t care much for what in Europe they call centrism, which tries to dilute any moral dilemma into a grayscale, but I admit that dividing all reality into good and bad reminds me too much of the binary code used by machines. I don’t know about you, but I long for the time when life allowed us to choose between more than two positions.". . .

I'm a mom and I'm saying goodbye to Disney  . . ."Turning Red" rated PG, is the story of a thirteen-year-old girl named Mei who inherits her family’s curse to become a red panda whenever she feels passionate emotions, including sexual tension, which feels wildly inappropriate in a movie targeting young children like mine. The adults at Disney create a storyline for the young main character and her fictional friends around their attraction of an older boy dangerously close to being a legal adult at seventeen. 

"It’s even more appalling when Mei begins to draw this boy in what a "Turning Red" YouTube account calls "dirty drawings." Her drawings include half-naked sketches of him, and, at one point, she crawls under her bed to get all hot and sweaty with her sketchbook of semi-nude scribbles. It would be hard to explain this scene as anything other than masturbation. 

"Mei and her friends are in a tug of war with their parents that the writers sexualize as they have the characters catcalling boys at school, endorsing "stripper music," and making plans to rebel against their parents who have legitimate concerns for their safety. But it gets worse.". . .

Disney just can’t seem to quit grooming kids - American Thinker  . . ."It’s been apparent for a while that Disney has strayed from Walt Disney’s vision of a traditional family-friendly product and has become, instead, an entity dedicated to advocating for the LGBTQ++ cohort. You can see the trajectory in (a) the increasingly open same-sex love LeFou has for Gaston in Beauty and the Beast (in the animated version, it was hero worship; in the 2017 life-action movie, it was open), (b) the lesbian cop in Onward, (c) the fish who’s also a boy in Luca, a story that all sentient people understand as a metaphor for so-called transgenderism, and (d) Disney’s Muppet Babies pushing cross-dressing. Meanwhile, Disney has also actively courted the LGBTQ++ crowd at its theme parks.". . .

Man Who Exposed Hunter Biden's Laptop Shares Disgusting Details

 Man Who Exposed Hunter Biden's Laptop Shares Disgusting Details – RedState

Hopefully, Isaac can rebound from this. How he was treated by the public, the mainstream media, the Democrat establishment, and the authorities is inexcusable. 

. . ."While Hunter Biden has naturally taken center stage regarding the laptop he left at a computer repair shop in Wilmington, DE, few have asked exactly what happened to the man who exposed it all.

. . .Sadly, Issac was targeted as a Russian disinformation agent after the Biden campaign and others, including 50 “former intelligence officials,” rushed to label the laptop as such.

“Once the story was out and my name was leaked to the public, it had been a matter of at first running and hiding. Now it’s trying to just rebuild my life and then do it in a manner that’s not restricted by public opinion of me being involved in some Russian disinformation campaign,” he said.. . .

. . ."Yet, because that sequence of events represented a problem for national Democrats, including Joe Biden, Isaac was mercilessly smeared by powerful elites, including the U.S. intelligence establishment, without an ounce of evidence that Russia was involved at all.

"That’s not supposed to happen. Normal Americans aren’t supposed to be destroyed in order to protect degenerate sons who make millions of dollars trading on daddy’s name. Don’t forget that Joe Biden directly called the laptop “Russian disinformation,” despite having to have known that much of what was on it was true, specifically dealing with his son’s business dealings. After all, the now-president had a key to the office Hunter Biden had set up for himself, his father, his mother, and a Chinese-government connected partner.

"As to what Isaac did with the computer, he didn’t originally go to any partisan figure with it. Rather, he noticed the national security implications of what was on it and called the FBI. It was only after it became clear that the government was going to squat on the information in order to protect Joe Biden that he moved to expose the contents of the laptop. And as an American with free speech rights and legal ownership of what was on the laptop (computer repair shops typically have a policy where non-payment cedes ownership after a given amount of time, typically 3-6 months), there was nothing wrong with him making that stuff public.". . .

"Hopefully, Isaac can rebound from this. How he was treated by the public, the mainstream media, the Democrat establishment, and the authorities is inexcusable."

Please, conservatives, let us always be better than this. TD
