Are Democrats Really This Dumb Or Just Evil?

 Are Democrats Really This Dumb Or Just Evil? (townhall.com)

"Every once in a while, someone, some adult who you’d assume would know better, says something so stupid you really have to worry they’re having a stroke or suffered a closed head injury. More often than not, the person whose health you’re concerned about is a Democrat. Less frequently, however, that person is the former Speaker of the House. The longer Nancy Pelosi sticks around, the more likely it is that this level of idiocy will become the norm. 

"What did Nancy say? Upon the news breaking about the sealed indictments against former President Donald Trump, the 83-year-old tweeted, “The Grand Jury has acted upon the facts and the law. No one is above the law, and everyone has the right to a trial to prove innocence.” 

"Granted, Nancy is very old. That passage of time has not just led to her having so many facelifts that her ears touch in the back of her head, but to a slippage of epic proportion when it comes to her already limited intelligence. 

"Our system of justice does not afford defendants with the “right to a trial to prove innocence,” it provides the presumption of innocence unless and until they have been proven guilty. But let’s play Nancy’s game – the media drools over her like she’s something special, so let us follow her lead and provide Democrats with the opportunity to prove they are innocent. Anything less would be wrong, even an “injustice,” would it not?"

"On Friday, Bragg admitted that the office used $5,000 of federal funds during the investigation in to Trump’s alleged hush money payments to Stormy Daniels.

"While Bragg did admit to using federal funds in the investigation, he has otherwise refused to cooperate with the House’s inquiries in to the investigation and indictment of Trump.

"Jose A. Fanjul, a former Manhattan district attorney, has a much more positive opinion of Merchan. Speaking to The New York Times, Fnajul(sp) said, “He is someone who reads every word on every page of every filing and every footnote, and then the cases that you cite to him.' ”

Bill Maher fears Trump indictment will spark 'cycle of revenge' for future presidents |

 Fox News  "Real Time" host Bill Maher did not pop the champagne following the historic criminal indictment of former President Trump. 

"Maher kicked off the panel discussion on Friday night expressed how conflicted he is about the charges being brought from New York, calling it an "impossible choice" since "you can't not go after him because he's always guilty," pointing to both of his impeachments.

" 'I always ask myself the question, ‘What is actually better for the future of the country and my future?' Because I don't want to live in a country where we are one of these places where whoever is president, as soon as they get out of office, they go after them," Maher said. 

"He continued, "It's almost Greek tragedy-like because you set off this cycle of revenge like The House of Atreus. And I guarantee you when Biden is out of office, Day Two, they will try to arrest him."

"Republican Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears called for due process and warned Trump's political adversaries "be careful that you don't dance on the grave of your enemy because you may fall in."

"Meanwhile, Tablet Magazine columnist James Kirchick told Maher that the "tragic part" that the three other criminal investigations hovering over Trump that are "far more serious than paying off a porn star."

" 'So if you're going to indict the first president ever in the history of this country for something… why couldn't it have been for one of these other investigations rather than this new one which is going on a novel legal theory that the D.A. in Manhattan has. It's unclear whether he'll even be able to get a conviction," Kirchick said.

"The other probes involving the former president include his role in the events leading up to the Jan. 6 riot., his handling of classified documents after leaving office and the effort to reverse the Georgia election results.". . .

Michigan college professor suspended for saying some conservative campus speakers should be killed

 Just The News" A college professor at Wayne State University in Michigan, Steven Shaviro, was suspended without pay after posting on Facebook that it would be better for students to kill their political opponents rather than just protest against them. 

"I think it is far more admirable to kill a racist, homophobic, or transphobic speaker than it is to shout them down," Shaviro said on Facebook, according to Fox News.

[But anything one says that the left does not like will get you branded as any or all of the above. TD]

"When right-wing groups invite such speakers to campus, it is precisely because they want to provoke an incident that discredits the left, and gives more publicity and validation to these reprehensible views than they could otherwise attain," he wrote.

"The protesters get blamed instead of the bigoted speaker; the university administration finds a perfect excuse to side publicly with the racists or phobes; the national and international press has a field day saying that bigots are the ones being oppressed, rather than the people those bigots actually hate being the victims of oppression," the post continued.

Wayne State President M. Roy Wilson condemned the post in an email to the students and said that the university notified the police. 

"We have on many occasions defended the right of free speech guaranteed by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, but we feel this post far exceeds the bounds of reasonable or protected speech. It is, at best, morally reprehensible and, at worst, criminal," Wilson said in the email. 

Argus Hamilton excerpts

 Argus Hamilton's Rogue Report - Argus Hamilton (jewishworldreview.com)

New York Democratic District Attorney Alvin Bragg denied his prosecution of Trump is politically motivated. However no legal expert thinks he has a criminal case. The district attorney is so easy on street criminals that Trump thought about killing someone to get Bragg to drop all charges.

 President Biden cuddled a baby onstage at the White House celebration of the 13th anniversary of the passage of Obama Care Thursday and declared that he loves babies better than people. I'm not surprised at all to hear it. There's an obvious reason why Joe Biden loves babies, they both wear diapers.

 Walt Disney CEO Bob Iger conceded Thursday that the price of admission to Disney World has gotten too high and that the theme park needs to be more accessible for families. There is no irony greater than the irony of Disney World. For starters, the fact that it's a giant human trap set by a mouse.

Midwest Democrat governors asked Biden to name Chicago to host the Democratic Convention in 2024. Animal rights activists won't like it. The Convention Center is across the street from the Chicago Stockyards and if the cattle are downwind from the speeches they might get sick from the smell.

 The New York Times published another scary climate change warning Wednesday saying that the earth is speeding toward catastrophe if we don't act fast. It's a partisan article of faith. Democrats keep saying that the sky is falling when the only thing falling is Joe Biden on the steps of Air Force One.

The Alexander Graham Bell Museum in Canada will re-stage the inventor's first phone call for tourists this summer. The first phone call was made in 1876 to his assistant Watson in the next room. Historians now believe the second phone call was to ask Alexander Graham Bell about his car warranty.

The Rule of Law is almost dead in America

  Bookworm Room

"As Stanford Law School shows, the Rule of Law is almost dead in America, and it must be resuscitated if our nation is to survive."

"Progressives believe themselves above the law and conservatives below it. What happened and (at the administrative level) continues to happen at Stanford Law School is a perfect example of this intolerable reality. Meanwhile, the pearl-clutching reaction from some conservatives to Trump’s warning that arresting him on ludicrous, political charges may well lead to violence is itself counter-productive. Weakness invites more aggression; steadfast resistance ends it.

"A horrendous but all too common incident of progressives unlawfully shutting down conservative speech recently occurred at Stanford Law School. Jonathan Turley summarized the facts:

The Stanford Federalist Society invited Judge Duncan of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit to speak on campus. However, liberal students, including members from the National Lawyer’s Guild, decided that allowing a conservative judge to speak on campus is intolerable and set about to “deplatform” him by shouting him down.

In this event, Duncan was planning to speak on the topic: “The Fifth Circuit in Conversation with the Supreme Court: Covid, Guns, and Twitter.” A video shows that the students prevented Duncan from speaking from the very beginning. Many called him a racist while others hurled insults like one yelling “We hope your daughters get raped.”

Duncan was unable to continue and asked for an administrator to assist him.

Dean [for Diversity Equity and Inclusion at Stanford Law School] Steinbach then took the stage and criticized the judge for seeking to be heard despite such objections.

"Alan Dershowitz gave some very important context to the incident. The plan to disrupt Judge Duncan’s speech was not a localized event that a few students planned and executed. To the contrary:

It was a well-planned and carefully orchestrated effort to prevent other Stanford students from hearing the judge’s conservative views. The disruption was organized by the local chapter of National Lawyers Guild as part of a nationwide effort to suppress conservative speech. . . .

 . . .Specifically, 18 U.S. Code § 241 – Conspiracy against rights provides:

If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States…[t]hey shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years….

In it, you hear someone who is presumably one of the “protest” organizers encouraging people to hold up seven fingers, in what sounds like an apparent attempt at declaring 28-year-old Audrey Hale, who identified as “he/him,” as the seventh victim of the Monday shooting massacre she orchestrated shortly before Metro Nashville police officers located her and took care of business.". . .

Could Joe Biden Get Impeached?

 

Could Joe Biden Get Impeached? - 19FortyFive

"Could Joe Biden Get Impeached? Impeachment is a very political process as the two impeachments against former President Donald Trump proved. However, Republicans lack the same degree of political unity and bloodlust toward President Joe Biden that the Democrats have shown regarding Trump. Democrats started theorizing about how to impeach Trump in April 2016 even before he was the Republican nominee for president.

Republicans have been shy about impeachment since their politically disastrous impeachment of Bill Clinton in 1998 cost them in the midterms that year. Impeachment requires a 2/3 vote of the Senate to convict. A majority of senators voted to convict Trump during the second impeachment trial; however, they fell 10 short of the 67 votes needed to remove or in that case block the former president from holding office again.

“I don’t think you want to get into where it’s a tit for tat, every two years or four years you’re dealing with impeachment proceedings in the House and Senate,” Senate Republican Whip John Thune told The Hill in January about the idea that Republicans should impeach the president over his mishandling of classified documents. “There has to be a really good reason, obviously, the constitutional reasons and grounds for that. So we’ll see where it goes.”

"Indiana Republican Sen. Mike Braun similarly put cold water on the idea of impeachment.

“ 'I think the country will fatigue of that,” he told The Hill, noting that impeachment proceedings against former Presidents Clinton and Trump “have not ended up with any real result.”

"Braun continued: “If you start doing it on everything, I think it would be bad politically and for the mechanics of government working.”. . .
