No Republican is above the law!

AfterMath

Trump’s indictment creates a new era for the GOP. Swamp Republicans hardest hit.  "The indictment and pending arraignment of Donald Trump signals a new era for the Republican Party. The move by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, not coincidentally timed to push aside discussion of documentary proof of bribes funneled by China to Biden family members, has clarified the nature of the actual political system we live under today.". . . 

The indictment of President Trump by the Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg will determine once and for all whether the Republican party is willing to fight to preserve our country, or will tell their friends to “hold them back” as they pretend to throw punches at a much bigger foe.

. . .   “All bets are off. You can expect grand jury indictments of leftist politicians like Biden, Pelosi and Schumer as surely as night follows day,” said Tom Fitton, president @JudicialWatch

. “You can be sure there are prosecutors across Florida and Texas right now who are looking for a state law hook into the Biden family. And if they’re not, they’re not doing their jobs.” nypost.com/2023/03/31/gop   via @nypost


Trump Indictment Outrage | Judicial Watch

"Let’s cut to the chase. Trump is a crime victim. New York Democrats’ reckless scheme to prosecute and jail President Trump is a dangerous attack on the rule of law and a brazen attempt to rig the 2024 elections for President Biden and Democrats. We denounce Alvin Bragg’s corrupt attempt to make Trump a political prisoner. Congress and every responsible government official should do everything possible under the law to undo this attempt to wreck our republican form of government. Judicial Watch is on the case and has filed (and will file) multiple open records requests and other court actions to expose and try to stop this dangerous abuse of power."                           

'Too Old': Joe Biden Rejects Invitation to King Charles's Coronation

 RedState


"President Joe Biden will likely reject an invitation to attend King Charles III’s coronation in May, with insiders claiming he is “too old” to travel across the Atlantic and attend the ceremony.

"Insiders disclosed to The Telegraph that Biden will attend an event in Northern Ireland later this month but will likely not visit London for the coronation. However, the president’s aides are reportedly “cautious about his foreign trips to prevent exhaustion that could affect his ability to carry out his duties within the country.”

"Despite supposedly being unable to make foreign trips, Biden is expected to announce his bid for the 2024 presidential race soon and is also set to travel to Japan for the G7 summit next month.

“ 'The guy is 80. They space out his big bursts of activity quite considerably,” the source told the British broadsheet. “They did that too with Trump, and he was younger. When Biden does something like the State of the Union address, we didn’t see much from him in the following 48 hours. They don’t like to push him around the world too much.”

"Officials in London and Washington reportedly emphasized that Mr. Biden has not yet made a formal decision regarding his attendance. They have also stated that if he chooses not to attend, it should not be viewed as a snub to the British monarchy, although many Royal commentators and analysts will likely construe it as such.". . .

APRIL FOOLS: Billboard Appears In Texas Roasting Southwest Airlines’ Woke Policies

 100PercentFedUp.  "On Saturday, a billboard mocking woke airlines like Southwest appeared just ahead of April Fools Day, along I-35 South of Fort Worth. The satirical billboard ad featured a fake company called Southwoke.". . .


. . ."The billboard’s tag phrase says “Bringing San Francisco’s baggage To Texas non-stop,” and features depictions of Southwest Airlines CEO Robert Jordan and Board of Directors members David Biegler, Nancy Loefler, Gary Kelly, and Veronica Biggins in drag attire.". . .

. . ."The site also poked fun at the leftist’s hatred toward anyone who does not embrace their ideology, “Southwoke: An airline that’s inclusive of everyone except you.' ”. . .

DALLAS – As part of our restructuring plan to bring San Francisco values to Texas, Southwoke Airlines is pleased to announce that Sam Brinton has been hired to serve as our new baggage czar, effective immediately.

"Known affectionately by law enforcement, TSA, and baggage handlers as “The
Snatcher,”
 Brinton comes to Southwoke with an impressive resume that includes several successful baggage heists at some of the busiest airports in the U.S. A former nuclear energy official in the Biden Administration and LGBTQ+ puppy play kink fetishist, Brinton was selected for their unique skillset, which Southwoke believes will revolutionize the Dallas-based airlines’ baggage handling capabilities.". . .

A Guide to Understanding the Hoax of the Century; Thirteen ways of looking at disinformation

 In his last days in office, President Barack Obama made the decision to set the country on a new course. On Dec. 23, 2016, he signed into law the Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act, which used the language of defending the homeland to launch an open-ended, offensive information war.

Intellectual Takeout

A Guide to Understanding the Hoax of the Century  "In 1950, Sen. Joseph McCarthy claimed that he had proof of a communist spy ring operating inside the government. Overnight, the explosive accusations blew up in the national press, but the details kept changing. Initially, McCarthy said he had a list with the names of 205 communists in the State Department; the next day he revised it to 57. Since he kept the list a secret, the inconsistencies were beside the point. The point was the power of the accusation, which made McCarthy's name synonymous with the politics of the era.

"For more than half a century, McCarthyism stood as a defining chapter in the worldview of American liberals: a warning about the dangerous allure of blacklists, witch hunts, and demagogues.

"Until 2017, that is, when another list of alleged Russian agents roiled the American press and political class. A new outfit called Hamilton 68 claimed to have discovered hundreds of Russian-affiliated accounts that had infiltrated Twitter to sow chaos and help Donald Trump win the election. Russia stood accused of hacking social media platforms, the new centers of power, and using them to covertly direct events inside the United States.". . .


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?"

UPDATE: Bragg Forced To Admit Key Fact That Could Allow House To Investigate Trump Indictment (100percentfedup.com)  . . ."McCarthy has indicated that the House would be at liberty to investigate Trump’s indictment if the Manhattan District Attorney’s office used federal funds in furtherance of the case against him.

"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.

"His office has rejected claims that the investigation was politically motivated, calling them ‘baseless’.

"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.". . .

Welcome to the Third World

 Yes, We Have Gone Bananas - Clarice Feldman  

Bragg’s office (a New York state operation) received federal funds to investigate Trump, and if you think Attorney General Merrick Garland was not in some way involved in this matter, you and I are in disagreement.

 . . ."Quick polls suggest that this view has purchase:   . . ."Republicans (93 – 5 percent) and independents (70 – 26 percent) think the Manhattan District Attorney’s case is mainly motivated by politics, while Democrats (66 – 29 percent) think the case is mainly motivated by the law,” Quinnipiac announced in a press release." . . .

Democrats' indictment of Trump is noted abroad -- and the banana republics are having a field day - Monica Showalter   "The Manhattan district attorney's junk indictment of former President Trump has been roundly booed as banana-republic politics even on the Democrat side of the spectrum, as well as the Republican.

"And in the real banana republics? The ones that are regularly lectured for their records on human rights and democracy?

"They're having a field day.

"Get a load of some of these: . . ."


Then we need to launch investigations into the Clintons, the Obamas, and the Bidens to find out how these people with no marketable skills managed to become some of the wealthiest in the country while “working to help the poor.” It’s weird, they all dedicated themselves to helping the poor, yet they’ve managed to get rich while doing it. Who knew the key to wealth was whining about how others don’t have it?

. . ."Let's go back to the Nixon pardon, or the last time that a U.S. president was facing criminal charges.  Enter President Ford, or a man who understood how dangerous it was to go after a former president.  It became President Ford's biggest and most courageous decision."...

"However, their voracious appetite for covering the various investigations (Stormy Daniels, Mara Lago documents, January 6th) surrounding former President Donald Trump remains unsatiated.

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.
