How on earth did Sam Brinton get a security clearance?

 

Don’t Blame Sam Brinton, They Did It; The disgrace falls squarely on the shoulders of the LGBTQ organizations that propped up a person of such questionable character.". . .

. . .“Brinton should never have been given a platform by national LGBTQ organizations without having crucial details of their story confirmed,” Besen writes. “LGBTQ groups were sloppy, ethically negligent and shockingly unprofessional, choosing expedience over prudence in turning Brinton into a national spokesperson. They were warned but didn’t listen.”

"Maybe they did not listen because bad consequences rarely followed pushing politically convenient yarns in the past."

That same political movement gave us both Sam Britain and Britany Griner while the world laughed. TD

Biden Justice Department's Vanita Gupta admits to targeting pro-lifers as payback for Supreme Court ruling on Roe

Monica Showalter   "The Department of Justice's associate attorney general, Vanita Gupta, the number three offical at that agency, loudly vowed at her confirmation hearing to serve an an impartial, non-partisan official, following revelations of a string of vile tweets directed at Republicans.

"Well, hyuk, hyuk, she fooled 'em good.

Chairman of Jan 6 Select (Witch Hunt) Committee Withdraws Subpeona Against Verizon For Mike Lindell’s Phone Records After He Sues Nancy Pelosi

Mike has lost millions fighting for justice regarding our elections, by his count. 

He’s not going to let the dishonest Left take him down without a fight.

The Gateway Pundit  *100 Percent Fed Up exclusive – Benny Thompson, chairman of the Jan 6 (Witch Hunt) Committee, has officially withdrawn the subpoena request on behalf of the committee for  Mike Lindell’s phone records after he filed a lawsuit against the unpopular Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi.

"We spoke with Mike Lindell, who explained that he sued the “unselect committee” almost immediately after he received their subpoena. “Sorry, but you’re not getting my records,” Mike said, adding, “It’s against the constitution, and I wasn’t even there!” Mike was referring to the Capitol building, which he was nowhere near when it was breached. Fortunately, Mr. Lindell, who is despised by the mainstream media, was being interviewed by the media when the incident occurred. It was a bitterly cold day at the Elipse; Mike headed back to his hotel room after listening to his good friend President Donald Trump speak. But that didn’t stop the “unselect committee,” as Mike calls them, from using his presence in DC as an excuse to go after his phone records". . .Patty McMurray

Bad news for Democrats: They may have to give Sam Bankman-Fried's $40 million in campaign cash back

 

Monica Showalter  "With Sam Bankman-Fried busted and in a Bahamas hoosegow, we now learn the shady truth about just what the accused fraudster was up to.

"According to charges filed, as reported by CNBC, he took customer money, from customer accounts, and donated it to Democrats.". . .

. . ."It just goes to show that the Democrats have won their elections based on criminal activity, stolen money from unwitting investors, who thought their money was safe in Bankman-Fried's crypto currency exchange. It wasn't. It went to buy Bankman-Fried a lot of adulation and influence, a get-out-of-jail card for his activities until the money ran out. Now the Democrats (and some unsavory Republicans) are on the hook to return the stolen property. Let's hope it defunds them and their corrupt operations good."

Mitt Romney Comes Out Against Hunter Biden Investigation – ‘A Waste of Time’ – Trump Calls Him a ‘Pathetic Joke’

 Political Insider  "Senator Mitt Romney is voicing opposition to Republican investigations into Hunter Biden, describing such affairs as a “waste of time.”

"Romney (R-UT) ran to his fellow faux conservatives at The Bulwark to make his position known.

"The outlet, which described the younger Biden, currently identified by federal agents as having enough evidence to charge him with multiple crimes, as little more than a “political bugbear,” notes that Romney is the only GOP lawmaker to break with his party on the matter.

“ 'I think it’s really hard to know what the politics of a course of action might be in this day and age, to know where our party stands, what our base wants, what independent voters want,” Romney said.

“ 'But I think you have to do what you think is right and I think the American people want us to tackle some of the big challenges we have—immigration, inflation, and so forth—and the other things that divert from those priorities I think are a waste of time.' ”. . .

Victimhood Purchases Power

A.F. Branco

Sloan Oliver   "During his victory speech, Senator Raphael Warnock claimed to be a victim of voter suppression.  Let me try to understand, Georgia had record voter turnout, Warnock won the election but claimed that votes were suppressed.  In other words, he’s a victim.  Really?  Someone, anyone, find one legal voter who was unable to vote in Georgia.  You can’t.  So Warnock and Stacey Abrams (she also claimed voter suppression), please, you’re both a bore.

"With Abrams and Warnock in mind, is there anything more insufferable than our privileged, millionaires (and billionaires) complaining about their terrible circumstances in life, about being victims?  Last week, Jennifer Lawrence, of the Hunger Games fame, claimed to be a victim.  Forget that she’s one of the most privileged people in the entire world.  In a Variety interview, she claims to have overcome oppression and that she’s still being oppressed.  Where’s the proof, you ask?  In her statement, “Nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie.”  Translation: Jennifer thought her acting abilities were being questioned, which means she was being oppressed; she was being victimized.  Not only is Lawrence not a victim, she’s extremely ignorant.  Sigourney Weaver in Aliens (1979), Linda Hamilton (Terminator movies), Angelina Jolie (Tomb Raider – 2001 and 2003), Uma Thurman (Kill Bill – 2003), and Jessica Alba (Fantastic Four – 2005) all quickly come to mind.  Lawrence needs to read history books about centuries past to learn true victims of oppression.". . .

. . ."Last week, Biden exchanged (i.e. released) a Russian arms dealer (known as the “merchant of death”) for an American held by the Ruskies.  He had two exchange choices - Brittney Griner, privileged WNBA player who hates America or Paul Whelan, a Marine who put his life on the line for America.  Both Griner and Whelan were convicted and sentenced to lengthy prison sentences in Russian courts on questionable charges.  Guess which one Biden traded the arms merchant for, the non-privileged Marine who served America or the privileged victim who hates America?  You know the answer."   (Emphasis added; TD)

The Obamas Despise Free Speech, and Show It

Jeannie DeAngelis   "When warning Americans that freedom is in danger if political views that do not agree with theirs are not silenced, both Barack and Michelle Obama love to throw around the term "democracy."  The Obama belief that opposing free speech somehow protects "democracy" proves that neither one understands the basic tenet of what they profess needs protecting.

"In Obama circles, rebuke, rejection, or refutation does not sit well.  These two hypersensitive narcissists thrive on things like public adoration and unswerving agreement.  The Obama brand of egotistical self-importance is so great that deviation from the Obama gospel is oftentimes met with vindictive attempts at public humiliation.

"During his eight years in office, Obama overtly scolded detractors.  The former president fought his battles with a teleprompter and a weaponized federal government at his side.  A short list of some of the opponents Obama publicly targeted included the American 

Constitution — i.e., the Second Amendment — the U.S. military, pro-lifers, Christians, and right-leaning Supreme Court judges.  Obama made a sport of reprimanding Tea Party activists as well as conservative news stations and anchors.  Take, for example, his administration's April 2009 opening salvo issued by the DHS, entitled, "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment," or his malicious act of siccing IRS agents on those he deemed political adversaries.

Then, in 2016, the worst happened: voters overwhelmingly chose a different kind of president. . . ."

AOC's box office disaster reminds some critics she's a flop in Congress: 'She doesn't do her job'

AOC's climate change documentary bombs at box office despite leftist pandering (msn.com)

 AOC's box office disaster reminds some critics she's a flop in Congress: 'She doesn't do her job'  "Titled To The End, the documentary showcased the life and work of four young women and their attempt to pass significant legislation to address the Earth's changing climate.

"The film managed to rake in a mere $80 per theater, according to a report.

"Professional critics lauded the work, gifting it an 88% "fresh" critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, and leftist media praised it for its call to action.

. . ."However, it seems that all the praise in the world could not force moviegoers to see the film. Debuting at 120 locations, To The End brought in less than $10,000 dollars.". . .

Matt Taibbi, Douglas Murray Dominate Trust-in-Media Debate

National Review

". . .Every adult I knew growing up seemed to be in media,” Taibbi said during his opening remarks to start the debate. “I love the news business. It’s in my bones. But I mourn for it. It’s destroyed itself.”

"Toronto — Conservative commentator Douglas Murray and veteran reporter Matt Taibbi soundly defeated their opponents in a Wednesday evening debate on the question of whether to trust the mainstream media, convincing a significant segment of the audience to abandon their faith in an institution they say is hopelessly compromised by bias. 

"The debate, held at Roy Thomson Hall in downtown Toronto and sponsored by the Canadian cultural non-profit Munk Debates, featured Taibbi and Murray squaring off against the tremendously popular non-fiction author Malcolm Gladwell and New York Times opinion columnist Michelle Goldberg, who made the case for continued trust in major American and Canadian outlets.

Gav The Gov waves farewell to his middle class

 

Two Babylon Bee parodies:

 Gavin Newsom Thankful As Fleeing Californians Can No Longer Afford To Fill Up Their U-Hauls

. . ."According to sources, it currently costs $7,827.00 to fill the gas tank of a U-Haul in California. With residents already struggling to survive, many are being forced to put their escape plans on hold. Still, others are undeterred, electing instead to form a migrant caravan to leave the oppressive state on foot. ". . .

Governor Newsom Enraged After Hearing Churches Singing Down In Whoville

. . ." Atop a cold peak near California's capital, Governor Gavin Newsom was enjoying the peace and quiet he'd earned by taking away everything fun in the state. But then, he heard something that made his blood run cold: singing!

"According to sources, every Christian in Cali, the tall and the small, was singing without any permits at all. The governor hadn't stopped the Lord's Day from coming! It came! Somehow or other, it came just the same!

" 'What's this? Singing? IN MY STATE?" Newsom cried as he looked down at the small village of Whoville and heard the believers gathered there singing songs, hymns, and spiritual songs. "I don't understand it! I don't! I took away all of their joy and their hope! I said not to sing, I said it, I did! I wasn't joking or pranking, I never kid!' ". . .

Oh, So That's Why Biden Took the Deal to Get a WNBA Star Out of Russia

 Townhall

. . .They decided to take it because this collection of officials who bathe in a putrid mix of mediocrity and ineptitude wanted this issue off the table. . .

"As we’ve noted here, when it comes to The Art of the Deal, Biden doesn’t have it, which was painfully exposed when he pulled the trigger on a bad deal to get back WNBA star Brittney Griner who has been detained in Russia for months. In February, Griner was jailed on drug charges, with vape charges containing cannabis oil on her person. It was for medicinal purposes, but it’s illegal in Russia. A months-long legal circus carried allegations that the Biden White House either didn’t know or care that an American was being detained overseas. It also didn’t help that Griner’s detention occurred just as the Biden administration and the rest of the West slapped sanctions on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine. 

"To complicate matters, a pre-arranged phone call between Griner and her wife, Cherelle, was botched when no one was at the front desk of our embassy in Russia to connect the call. It was on the couple’s anniversary, no less. The Biden administration did apologize for this oversight, citing staffing shortages on weekends, but this call was scheduled weeks in advance. It only added to the narrative that the Biden administration was incompetent, which isn’t necessarily a lie. Since then, Cherelle has been quite critical of how the Biden White House had handled this whole affair, especially since Donald Trump was able to get Lavar Ball’s son out of China when the latter was allegedly involved in a shopfitting incident there. 

"With Christmas time upon us, Griner was released on the condition that arms dealer Viktor Bout, who also goes by the Merchant of Death, would be freed. That was the deal: an arms dealer for a black lesbian WNBA player. On its face, you can’t help but realize that Biden got played. ". . .

Republican Babes-in-the-Woods Will Soon Meet the Democrat Realpolitik

Bookworm

 American Thinker  Along these lines, Biden’s White house recently dismissed the Hunter laptop stories as – Old News.  Old News, while at the same time Democrats continue to go back centuries to find dirt on anyone, including Washington, Lincoln, and Jefferson – if it serves their modern socialist propaganda purposes. 

"When they take control of the House, Republicans have said that they will investigate Joe Biden.  

"Democrats will not sit still for this and are already preparing to attack any investigations and any Republicans who are involved. 

"Republicans have made no secret of the fact that in the new Congress, they are planning to use their oversight powers to launch investigations of the Biden clan’s finances, the fiasco at the southern border, and the politicization DOJ/FBI – among other things. . . . 

. . ." At this point it’s good to remember what Paul A. Goble, a former State Department official, said in his article: “How Russian and Soviet Propaganda Differ.” 

The Russians he said, had learned that in an information era they could count on deceiving only those who wanted to be deceived.  Fortunately for them, he continued, these gullible individuals are extremely numerous.  An addition to this would be – and you can count on the American press to keep them gullible and accepting of the socialist messaging. 

There are two considerations here.  First, much of this came out before Elon Musk released the Twitter emails that exposed the collusion between social media, the DNC, the Biden campaign, and possibly government agencies.  But it sure fits the way they have always done business.  Second, the empire is already striking back.  The mainstream press is already working with/for the Democrats trying to downplay the Laptop from Hell scandal.  Additionally, Wikipedia is reportedly considering removing entries on the collusion Twitter Files Elon Musk has released from their site.  One reason they gave was that they were nothing new and had been ignored by the media. 

Ignored by the media.  There you have the Liberal media’s playbook and their most dangerous tool.  First, they ignore an inconvenient story – then they say it never happened because they didn’t report it.  And if you argue the point they (and all their friends) will call you extremists and racists. 

As they say in advertising, if you're explaining you're losing.  Democrats attack.  The Republicans snivel and defend and never attack.  That’s why no one pays any attention to their arguments.  This must change if things have any chance of getting better.
