Numerous Democrats Join Rep. Cori Bush in Demanding $14 Trillion Reparations

We'd hate to see more rioting and burning in your streets, y'know?

  (legalinsurrection.com)

“When a Fox News Digital reporter asked where the federal money would come from for the massive proposal, Bush said they were still hashing out the details.”

"The reparations panel in California is now recommending up to $1.2 million per resident, but Democrat Rep. Cori Bush of Missouri clearly thinks that’s not nearly enough.

"She wants a cool $14 trillion in reparations payments. That’s more than half of the U.S. GDP.

"Rep. Cori Bush says $14 trillion reparations bill will ‘eliminate the racial wealth gap’

"For the first time, the extensive history of the enslavement of Africans, post-Jim Crow discrimination and other racially charged subjects has been entered into the congressional record — and repairing the lasting damage these institutions caused will have a hefty price tag, according to one Democratic lawmaker.

"In 23-page legislation introduced Thursday, Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., called on Congress to adopt several measures aimed at righting historic wrongs, including urging the federal government to issue federal reparations to Black Americans and other reparatory justice efforts. A minimum of $14 trillion would be needed “to eliminate the racial wealth gap that currently exists between Black and White Americans,” the resolution argues.

“ 'The United States has a moral and legal obligation to provide reparations for the enslavement of Africans and its lasting harm on the lives of millions of Black people in the United States,” H.R. 414 declares.". . .

Hillary Gives Us Another Hint That Her Pointy Black Hat Is In the Ring for 2024

 As the stand-in for Old Joe, Hillary could face significant competition. Kamala, for all her obvious unsuitability, is not going to go away without a fight. Gavin Newsom clearly wants to do to the whole country what he has done to California. 

 

Hillary Gives Us Another Hint About 2024 – PJ Media   "Hillary Clinton has said that she is not going to be a candidate for president in 2024, but with Hillary Clinton, you never know. She has been dropping hints along the way that she has the perfect person in mind to step in and be the Democrats’ 2024 nominee if Old Joe’s incoherence and Kamala Harris’ incapacity become too obvious: a certain former First Lady, secretary of state, senator, and twice-failed presidential candidate. Hey, the third time could be a charm.

"Hillary gave us her latest hint that she may end up throwing her broomstick into the ring when she appeared at the Financial Times Weekend Festival in Washington. Clinton insisted that Old Joe had amassed a “good record” while pretending to be president of the United States. And if you like open borders, the mass entry of unvetted migrants, cities beset by skyrocketing crime rates, rising inflation, prohibitive gas prices, and the endless exacerbation of racial tensions, then yeah, Biden has been doing great.

"Hillary wants us to think he has. She stated, “And I am of the camp that I think he’s determined to run. He has a good record that three years ago people would not have predicted would have gotten done.” Yes. Few people three years ago would have predicted that Biden and his handlers could have done this much damage in so short a time.

"She continued, “He doesn’t get the credit yet that he deserves for what is happening out in the country.” That’s true also: people don’t realize how much of the deterioration and growing chaos that they see all around them is the direct result of choices Old Joe and his handlers have made.". . .

7 years after Obama commuted his life sentence, Alton Mills shot, killed woman on Chicago expressway: prosecutors

Weasel Zippers "In 2015, Obama commuted the sentence of a cocaine dealer who was serving a life sentence. Democrats promoted him as the reason we need criminal justice reform. "He was just arrested for shooting a woman in the head after a car passed him in traffic. "

Have California’s Democrats made a couple of serious errors?

  Two news stories suggest that California Democrats have alienated major constituencies in that once lovely and now benighted state. Bookworm Room

The state’s bait-and-switch will not go over well with blacks. It doesn’t matter that the reparations task force got greedy. Having seen their “worth,” they will feel cheated. That may be reflected in their votes (assuming, of course, that any legal votes are ever counted in California).

. . ."First, there was the reparations fiasco. When the state authorized a task force to consider reparations, I’m sure Democrats thought the demands would be reasonable: free education at state colleges and universities, tax refunds, nominal cash demands, etc. Instead, the reparations committee claimed blacks are entitled $1.2 million per person plus other types of reparations (no taxes, free college, even free homes, etc.). Given that California has been busy sowing the wind, it should have known that it would reap the whirlwind.

"Gavin Newsom, whose values are all wrong but who is no fool, realized that the $800 billion bill for reparations (2.5 times California’s annual budget) was unsustainable, so he did the only thing possible: He said no. However, blacks who are paying attention have noticed that the state is always able to direct huge sums of money to the illegal aliens who are decreasing housing stock, taking jobs, and diluting blacks’ political power:". . .

Regarding reparations, they should make it clear that Dems don’t keep their promises. And when it comes to pork, they should trumpet the fact that Democrats, given the chance, will starve their citizens and that they value animal lives over human lives.

Obama torpedoed U.S. relations with Russia -- to perpetuate lies about Trump, Durham report found

 Obama torpedoed U.S. relations with Russia -- to perpetuate lies about Trump, Durham report found - American Thinker

That's the old Obama we know however, and now he's disgraced us on the world stage as a dishonest sleazeball country, not a nation founded on fairness and democracy. His act and the acts of the Deep State were not only detrimental to democracy here, they were very detrimental to foreign policy abroad. . . 

. . ."So Obama's wrath was nothing but a fiction to protect the partisan Democrat narrative that they had been promoting about Trump and the Russians, which originated from the embittered political camp of losing Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton.

"How would you feel about that if you were a Russian, especially now, reading that it was all a political hoax with you the one chosen to be the whipping boy? You got sanctioned, you got kicked out, you got travel bans, you incurred costs, and some "name and shame" all based on lies.

"Might you start thinking of the U.S. as kind of a sleazy, dishonest player on the world scene? Would you have problems trusting them? Might you step up your activities against it? It would seem natural.

"The Russians, remember, had already calculated by their own devices that Hillary Clinton would win the 2016 election and the Kremlin was planning for that, so they were as surprised as anyone that the American voters thought otherwise when the election results came in in November 2016.

"That they were blamed for the result and sanctioned for hacking and colluding they didn't do, and knew they didn't do, and knew that Obama knew they didn't do, surely must have made them angry.". . .

Ending the lies -

"Brandon Straka, a gay man and former liberal, heads his Walk Away campaign to get others to quit the Democrat Party. He tweeted the other day:

They lied to you about Donald Trump.

They lied about Brett Kavanaugh.

They lied about children in cages.

They lied about #WalkAway.

They lied about the election outcome.

They lied about the Covington Kids.

They lied about Jussie Smollett.

And yes, oh yes…

They lied about Russian Collusion.

Scrolling down the responses, I saw where Kari Lake tweeted, “They lied about Covid origins and vaccines” and she tweeted, “They lied to you about elections.”

A less famous person tweeted:

They lied about mandates.

They lied about ivermectin.

They are still lying about vaccine injuries.

They lied about CRT.

They lied about Kyle Rittenhouse.

American Conservative tweeted, “Barack Obama didn’t sit in Jeremiah Wright's church because he was a good guy, wasn't racist, and loved America.

“He sat in that church because he was the opposite of those things.

“Never a day goes by that we don’t feel the repercussions of his disastrous presidency.

“The Durham Report revealed last week that Obama is guilty of orchestrating a government coup against his successor, setting up everything in place to ensure Hell was unleashed on Trump by the FBI using false allegations and fake evidence dreamed up by Team Hillary but put to use in the Deep State by Obama." . . .

Los Angeles Dodgers Apologize, Re-Invite Anti-Catholic 'Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence' Trans Nuns to Pride Night - Fans Respond

  The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila

. . ."After backlash from the group, the Dodgers decided to re-invite them back on the field June 16 for pride night.

“After much thoughtful feedback from our diverse communities, honest conversations within the Los Angeles Dodgers organization and generous discussions with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, the Los Angeles Dodgers would like to offer our sincerest apologies to the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, members of the LGBTQ+ community and their friends and families,” the Dodgers said Monday night.

“We have asked the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to take their place on the field at our 10th annual LGBTQ+ Pride Night on June 16th. We are pleased to share that they have agreed to receive the gratitude of our collective communities for the lifesaving work that they have done tirelessly for decades,” the organization said.

“In the weeks ahead, we will continue to work with our LGBTQ+ partners to better educate ourselves, find ways to strengthen the ties that bind and use our platform to support all of our fans who make up the diversity of the Dodgers family,” they said.". . .

Comments from fans:  You are cowards to cave to anti-Catholic neo-Marxist drag queens. You are thumbing your nose at all your Christian fans. Did you learn nothing from the Bud Light boycott?

When the Dodgers come to Tampa they might be playing in front of an empty stadium. Florida is not California and that is very much cowardice on their part. They pick their side

Biden DOJ Formally Shut Down Clinton Foundation "Investigation" in August 2021 - FBI Destroyed All Evidence!

  The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila

"Biden’s corrupt Justice Department shut down their ‘investigation’ into the Clinton Foundation in August 2021, according to FOIA documents obtained by the New York Times.

"The FBI then ‘returned’ or destroyed all of the evidence!

“The Justice Department kept open the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s family foundation for nearly all of President Donald J. Trump’s administration, with prosecutors closing the case without charges just days before he left office.” The New York Times reported.

"The DOJ investigated the Clinton Foundation’s relationships with foreign donors while Hillary Clinton was the head of the Department of State during Obama’s presidency.

"Thanks to Judicial Watch, the American public was made aware of Hillary Clinton’s private email server.

"Hillary Clinton conducted official business on a non government server so she could hide her Clinton Foundation pay-to-play while she was head of the Department of State.

"According to emails obtained by Judicial Watch, Hillary Clinton gave preferential treatment to Clinton Foundation donors while she was Secretary of State.

"In fact Judge Royce Lamberth previously said Clinton’s use of a private emails was “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.” . . .    And she joked about it!

Sanctuary Cities Are Reaping What They Sowed

 The Daily Wire

Letter: Sanctuary cities are reaping what they sow | Editorial | riponpress.com

"Aren’t New York City and DC sanctuary cities?

" 'So why is NYC’s Mayor Adams and DC’s Mayor Browser upset that Texas Governor Abbott is transporting buses of illegal aliens to their cities?

"Abbott invited both mayors to the southern border to see firsthand how “[southern border towns] are being overrun by people illegally crossing.”

"Their response was, “…instead of a photo-op, we hope Governor Abbot will focus his energy and resources on providing support to asylum seekers…”

"In 2019, Adams said, “NYC will remain a sanctuary city.”

"But now he is saying, “…Abbott is anti-American. ... He is betraying American ideals.”

"Adams had the audacity to ask for federal funding because of the illegal immigrants bused to NYC.

"Browser said when she was elected, “We respect all DC residents no matter their immigration status.”

"But now she is saying, “[the number of migrants] has reached a tipping point…local taxpayers should not pick up the tab.”

"Biden’s policies and those in sanctuary cities cause this unprecedented increase in illegal immigration. 4,000 people daily — on average — illegally enter, so why should border town citizens pick up the tab?

"Why should sanctuary cities receive federal resources to fund housing, medical care, education, etc., for people who enter illegally when border towns don’t?

"More than 2 million people illegally entered this fiscal year according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. There are still 2 months left this fiscal year.

"This doesn’t even include the estimated 1 million “got aways.” And 1.8 million people illegally crossed in fiscal year 2021.

"How else can Abbott get Biden and the Democrats’ attention?" . . .

Sen. Tim Scott officially throws his hat in the ring – and does an impressive interview on FOX News

 The man also thinks that fatherlessness in the black community is a problem. Again, until someone addresses that, things won’t get better. Andrea Widberg

Peter Barry Chowka - American Thinker

Biden will refer to Tim Scott as a white supremacist in three...two...one...

. . ."Scott’s interesting and impressive background and career are reasonably and fairly objectively documented at his Wikipedia bio. The lengthy page and the references it cites are a compelling read. My impression of Scott over the years, confirmed by the chronology and highlights of his career, is that he is a man of deep conviction who is extremely articulate in expressing his conservative viewpoint.

"And so it was when he appeared on the FOX News channel Monday evening (video here). Needless to say, he received a cordial reception from his former Republican colleague in the Congress, Trey Gowdy, who was guest hosting the hour on FOX for the first of five nights from New York City.  On Sunday nights for the past year, Gowdy has hosted Sunday Night in America from Charleston, S.C., on FOX at 7 PM ET, sometimes repeated later in the evening.

"Gowdy, an attorney and former prosecutor, is a skillful interviewer, and the transcript of his conversation with Scott, provided by FOX News, is an interesting read. In particular, Scott is capable of taking excellent advantage of the brief time that is allotted to most guests on the cable news channels. And so it was yesterday evening.". . .

Observations from Sen. Tim Scott’s presidential candidacy announcement UPDATED -Andrea Widberg   . . ."Scott’s values are conservative. He’s deeply religious, and he believes in a post-racial America. He says that all able-bodied people should work, that we need a strong border, that the economy must be unchained, that we need to unleash America’s ability to produce energy, that our military must be the strongest in the world, that the police matter (especially in poor communities beset by crime), and that our children should be educated not indoctrinated. The only hot conservative issue that he didn’t touch upon was transgenderism, although I felt that fell under the “educated, not indoctrinated” rubric.". . .

Tim Scott fires back at 'The View's racially charged attacks: 'My life disproves the lies of the radical left' (msn.com)

. . ."On the left-leaning talk show, "The View" host Whoopi Goldberg suggested Scott has "Clarence Thomas syndrome." Thomas, a conservative U.S. Supreme Court justice from neighboring Georgia, has long been attacked by the left for not toeing what they believe is the proper jurisprudential line based on his skin color.

"Goldberg's co-host Sunny Hostin further claimed one of Scott's "issues" is that he believes because he "made it" coming from an impoverished Black family in the South, "everyone can make it.' " . . .

The easy way to identify the Loony Left -

 American Thinker  "If you have ever wondered how to instantly identify the Loony Left and its modicum of core mental competency and sanity, you have to wonder no more. Leftists have just made it much easier." . . .

It overwhelmed them down under in Australia

. . ."The true leftist identifier has now moved from style to the actual words they speak. Republicans and even middle-of-the-road Americans speak in coherent sentences. We are able to elucidate our points clearly. We then listen to the other side. Assuming the other side is intelligent, informed, and has bathed that week, we can usually have a meaningful discussion with them. Of course, forget Dems in DC. Trying to teach Mumbles, Giggles, or Fetterman to speak coherently would be like trying to teach a pig to dance: It will never work, and it just angers the pig.

"The new radical left can only speak by chanting some phrase, usually translated from one of Trotsky’s diatribes against the West. All that leftists do is repeat the same senseless phrase over and over.". . .
