This is a joke that will be repeated over and over by the media and other Dems: 'No one is above the law' -

 Jack Hellner  "Here is a short list of people who have essentially been above the law, no matter how many lies they tell under oath or how many crimes they commit. 

• Hillary Clinton
• Lois Lerner
• Eric Holder
• James Clapper
• Adam Schiff
• Fifty-one former intelligence officials who vouched for a fictitious document to elect a corrupt Democrat.
• Andrew McCabe
• James Comey
• Joe Biden

. . ."But if you are a Republican who wants to drain the swamp, question an election, or dare ask that foreign officials investigate the corrupt Biden family, you will be impeached and investigated endlessly in search of a crime."

Where's Pete? Major highway artery shut down in Philadelphia and will take 'months' to rebuild

 

Where's Pete? Major highway artery shut down in Philadelphia and will take 'months' to rebuild - Monica Showalter   . . ."He's also larded up government projects with new regulations and reporting requirements, plus minority contracting requirements, which don't match the urgency of the situation. That will certainly keep the repair of the broken highway in the "months" state for repair as commuters curse the stop and go traffic from even less well-maintained back roads.

"And let's not even get started when he starts in about rebuilding with "green" specifications. It's coming...

"Just rebuild the thing and skip the green. Skip the DEI regulations, skip the red tape and get it done. If this were any place other than the leftist-led U.S., the repair of the highway would be taking weeks, not months, and all stops would be pulled out to get it done on time if not ahead of schedule, the way Florida's Gob. Ron DeSantis was able to do with the washed away bridge to Sanibel Island in the wake of a recent major hurricane near Fort Myers and Naples. 

"Can Pete beat Ron for getting the roads moving again?

"Not at this point. These guys plan to take "months" and Buttigieg should be all over them cut regulations and speed the process up. The reality is, he's at least one of them slowing the repairs down.". . .

Why LGBTQQIAAP2S+ is losing

Americans are catching on to LGBTQQIAAP2S+. We cannot decode the acronym but we know very well the agenda. They went after our religion. They went after our kids. They even went after our beer.

Don Surber  

I have no idea what most of the letters stand for in LGBTQQIAAP2S+ and neither do its adherents because it is hard to keep up with the ever-changing founding principles of this religion. Well, it was built on sand, wasn’t it?

"I do know that gay pride month 2023 has been a huge loser for LGBTQQIAAP2S+ Marxism despite its status as a media-approved political movement that is funded by Corporate America and promoted by the government. Boycotts of Bud Light and Target are taking hold and showing Corporate America the price it could pay for peddling LGBTQQIAAP2S+ instead of their products.

"LGBTQQIAAP2S+ has turned Americans off.

"The Washington Post reported, “A 57% majority of adults said a person’s gender is determined from the start, with 43% saying it can differ.”

"Actually, sex is determined at creation by the Lord who creates each of us as a male or a female.  

" 'The story said, “The Pew Research Center found 60% last year saying one’s gender is determined by the sex assigned at birth, up from 54% in 2017. Even among young adults, who are the most accepting of trans identity, about half said in the Post-KFF poll that a person’s gender is determined by their sex at birth.”

"Public Religion Research Institute’s poll had similar results as Americans are coming to their senses.

"PRRI reported, “In the past several years, views have shifted on gender identities. In 2021, nearly six in ten Americans (59%) said there are only two gender identities, man and woman, and 40% of Americans believed there are many gender identities. The following year, in 2022, 62% of Americans believed that there are only two gender identities, and more than one-third (35%) said there are many gender identities. This divide slightly increased again in 2023, with 65% saying there are two gender identities and 34% saying there are many.” . . .

Turley: Trump Indictment Will Either Lay Ground to Charge Biden or Look Crafted to Avoid Having to Charge Biden

 Breitbart   "On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Fox News Contributor and George Washington University Law Professor Jonathan Turley stated that if the Department of Justice charges former President Donald Trump with mishandling classified information, “it’s going to make it difficult not to charge Vice President Biden with the same crime.” But if they don’t, then it’ll seem like they crafted the indictment of Trump in a way to avoid having to charge Biden.

"Turley said, “[W]e have to see what’s in this indictment. There are a couple of things that we’ll be looking for: Obviously, the obstruction charge is the one that most of us have been talking about for months. That, to me, has always been the greatest threat to Donald Trump. But there’s also the question of whether they will charge possession of classified documents. That’s going to put the Department of Justice in a tough position, because if they charge possession, it’s going to make it difficult not to charge Vice President Biden with the same crime. But if they don’t charge him on that, some people may view it as an effort to avoid the necessity of a charge against the President.”

"He added, “The mishandling of documents is the one that is going to be the most interesting reading, because Joe Biden mishandled documents in multiple locations for a much longer period of time.' ” . . .

Taylor Swift Tops List of Celebs Who’ve Taken the Most Private Flights – Rolling Stone

. . ."Drake and Jenner both appear on the list, but they’re actually nowhere near the top, which is occupied by none other than Taylor Swift. According to Yard, Swift’s jet flew 170 times between Jan. 1 and July 19 (the window for the Yard study), totaling 22,923 minutes, or 15.9 days, in the air. That output has created estimated total flight emissions of 8,293.54 tonnes of carbon, which Yard says is 1,184.8 times more than the average person’s total annual emissions. (At least one more flight can be added to that list, too: The flight-tracking Twitter account Celebrity Jets notes that Swift’s plane flew today, July 29.)

10 American Pastors with Private Jets - 'It's what Jesus would do' - Aero Corner

"In Les Misérables, Victor Hugo imagines his Bishop of Digne as a consummate “Man of God.” He exemplifies kindness, compassion, grace, and forgiveness, and is so charitable he foregoes his own priestly carriage to spend that money on the needy in the name of God and goodwill toward men.

"These “Men of God” have a different idea.

"In 2015, John Oliver ran a story on Last Week Tonight about popular Evangelists and their exorbitant spending, with private jets being one of his focuses.

"There is something undeniably odd about the combination of pastors and private jets. Whatever your personal views on Jesus, Christianity, and Religion, there is no denying that the Jesus of the Bible is a figure who lives meagerly and repeatedly opposes the rich and powerful.

"Yet for many mega pastors across America, it’s all part of their “Prosperity Gospel.” This Neo-Calvinist theology asserts that things like massive wealth – as exemplified by, say, private jets – are apparently a sign of God’s favor.". . .

The Devouring of a Christian Baseball Player -

  American Thinker   . . ."Bass can attest to the media-driven swiftness of the mob's fury.  On May 29, he shared an Instagram post headlined "The Biblical Reason Christians should Boycott Target" from @dudewithgoodnews, Ryan Miller.  By May 30, the Blue Jays had coerced Bass into an apology.  "I recognize yesterday I made a post that was hurtful to the Pride community, which includes friends of mine and close family members of mine.  I am truly sorry for that," said Bass.

"In 2015, when Scarlet Letters was published, I thought 17th-century Puritans made for a useful point of comparison with today's witch-hunters.  At the time, I thought our Neo-Puritans had gone about as far as they could go.  I also thought the "trans" movement too absurd to gain transaction.  I was wrong on every count

"The prideful woke have gone well beyond Cotton Mather and his God-fearing crew.  Waving their rainbow flags — with, now, a pink modification — the woke proudly follow the Mao model on their long march through our institutions.  In a godless world without mercy or redemption, they promise only vengeance, and vengeance has no end point.

"As in the Summers case, and in most such cases, an apology is not enough.  If anything, it is a further provocation.  Canadian LGBT activists wanted more.  To help them ring in Pride Month, a big deal in Toronto, they wanted groveling.  To that end, Bass had met with Pride Toronto executive director Sherwin Modeste on Tuesday and was scheduled to catch the opening pitch on Friday to launch Pride weekend festivities.  That should have been humiliation enough." . . .

 Monica Showalter...American Thinker   "Is Pete Buttigieg taking more time off, for, who knows?  Pride month?

"What else can one make of an emerging new supply chain crisis, at West Coast ports, that threatens to unleash a new round of shortages and price hikes to the public with no Pete in sight?

"According to The Hill:

Ships are piling up in some West Coast ports, and commercial shipping prices are spiking amid a labor fight between port operators and workers, threatening to trigger a new round of supply chain disruptions that could lead to shortages or higher prices.

The fight is sparking concerns among lawmakers who worry surging container prices could ripple through the economy and hit all sorts of consumer goods in a repeat of supply chain problems following pandemic shutdowns.

“The shippers I know are afraid of what might happen if we shut down our ports,” said Rep. Val Hoyle (D-Ore.), a member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. “People are concerned.”

Data from logistics platform Go Comet shows median delay times trending upward this week in several key West Coast ports, including Los Angeles, Seattle and Long Beach, Calif. Wait times at the port of Seattle are now more than a week.

Alan Dershowitz: Trump indictment doesn't pass the Richard Nixon test

 Fox Business  "The law has been 'stretched' to indict Trump: Harvard Law's Alan Dershowitz."

"Harvard University law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz says this is the first time in U.S. history that a leading candidate against an incumbent president is criminally indicted by that president."

Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz warned of the "dangerous" consequences posed by the federal charges launched against former President Donald Trump, arguing the indictment's "weak" appearance does not meet historic precedent.

Alan Dershowitz: Trump indictment doesn't pass the Richard Nixon test | Fox Business  "It has to be at least as strong as the case against Richard Nixon, which we will remember led not to Democrats to demand his resignation, but Republicans, his own colleagues came to him and said, this case is so strong that we can't support you," Dershowitz said Friday on "Mornings with Maria."

"I haven't seen any suggestion that Republicans agree with this indictment," the professor continued.

Trump himself announced the indictment Thursday on his social media platform, Truth Social. Seven federal charges have emerged out of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s months-long investigation, and reportedly involve obstruction of justice, conspiracy and illegal retention of classified government material.

"It has to be at least as strong as the case against Richard Nixon, which we will remember led not to Democrats to demand his resignation, but Republicans, his own colleagues came to him and said, this case is so strong that we can't support you," Dershowitz said Friday on "Mornings with Maria."

"Ironically, Anheuser Busch, Bud Light’s parent company, has owned most of the global makers of Modelo Especial since 2013. But according to Newsweek, federal regulators forced the company to unload Modelo’s U.S. holdings to New York-based Constellation Brands to maintain competition in America’s beer market." . . .

Kristi Noem Vows to Protect Mount Rushmore After Finding Out What Target Execs Support Doing to It

Noem is 100 percent right, of course. Target is one of the worst of all American corporations for its efforts to undermine this country and destroy everything that makes it a great country. It’s all just another reason for good, patriotic Americans to refuse to patronize Target.

 Kristi Noem Vows to Protect Mount Rushmore After Finding Out What Target Execs Support Doing to It (ijr.com)  "Ultra-left retail giant Target is at it again, this time donating money to a radical group that wants to demolish the colossal monument to our great presidents at Mount Rushmore because it is “white supremacy.” But South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem isn’t having any of it.

"As Fox News noted on Monday, Target has ramped up its support of radical ideas and its sick donations to radical, left-wing groups, including transgender groups, LGBT groups, Black Lives Matter groups, and so-called “social justice” groups. But it is also amping up donations to groups that push the race-based Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion agenda. And one of the groups it donates tens of thousands of dollars to has been advocating for demolishing Mount Rushmore.

"According to a look at Target’s donations through its non-profit Target Foundation, the company has donated to a South Dakota group calling itself the NDN Collective. This group has targeted Mount Rushmore, calling the national monument an “international symbol of white supremacy.”

"Fox added that NDN operates with a “racial equity lens” and is “dedicated to building indigenous power [t]hrough organizing, activism, philanthropy, grantmaking … and narrative change.”

"The group also employs the fantasy term “intersectional,” says it supports transgenderism, and works to “liberate” the special interest group it claims are “oppressed.”

Denver Councilwoman Who Floated Reparations Gets Blown Out in Re-Election Bid

Maybe instead of reparations you could try politely asking the Crips and Bloods to redistribute their gang activity to more equitable areas outside of Five Points and the rest of the Denver neighborhoods where they're entrenched.

Hunter Biden's explicit laptop images released by former Donald Trump employee

 Hunter Biden's explicit laptop images released by former Donald Trump employee (msn.com)

Mr Ziegler defended the decision to release the images, telling the Daily Mail: “If the American people want to know what their first family is like, they’re going to get it. And we’re not going to be taking out photos that paint the Bidens in a good light.”

"A former Donald Trump aide has published almost 9,000 images of Joe Biden’s son Hunter online, after claiming it took months to censor compromising images of him nude and with drugs and prostitutes.

"The photographs come from a cache of material obtained from a laptop the US president’s son reportedly took to a computer repair shop in Delaware.

"The contents were passed to the media and a number of the photos were published ahead of the presidential election in 2020 in an attempt to embarrass the Biden campaign.

"The latest images were published online by Marco Polo, a Right-wing non-profit organisation founded by Garrett Ziegler, a former employee of Mr Trump.

"They show the younger Mr Biden, 53, naked and apparently taking drugs and in the company of sex workers. Hunter’s battle with drug addiction is well documented.

"The photographs are dated between 2008 and 2019. Mixed in with the explicit images are a selection of family pictures, showing members of the Biden clan - including the president - holidaying in Rome.". . .
