Left-wing billionaire and philanthropist George Soros's passing of the torch of his $25 billion empire to his son, Alex Soros, is poised to have major ramifications in future elections and the liberal donor sphere.

 Meet Alex Soros, the 37-year-old successor son to the $25 billion George Soros empire (msn.com)  . . ."George Soros's left-wing dark money empire wields massive influence over the Biden administration and progressive congressional leaders," Caitlin Sutherland, executive director of Americans for Public Trust, a conservative watchdog, told the Washington Examiner. "Now, with his 'more political' son Alex as the heir-apparent to the multibillion-dollar network, we can expect to see more extreme and dangerous policies backed by the Soros family, including funding weak-on-crime prosecutors and job-killing environmental policies."

"Alex Soros, who is on the investment committee for Soros Fund Management, which oversees the Soros fortune and also OSF's finances, described himself in an interview published over the weekend with the Wall Street Journal as "more political" than his 92-year-old father. The younger Soros appeared to suggest OSF could play a role in the 2024 presidential election, noting, "As much as I would love to get money out of politics, as long as the other side is doing it, we will have to do it, too."

. . ."The transition to leadership for Alex Soros comes as he gains influence with top Democratic lawmakers. He's poured about $5.7 million into Democratic campaign coffers and liberal PACs since 2018, including $2 million that year to a committee tied to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), according to campaign finance records. Alex Soros has also met with Schumer at least nine times since 2018 and has been photographed with other lawmakers on various occasions, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), the Washington Examiner reported.". . .

Flashback: The One-Year Anniversary of the Assassination Attempt on SCOTUS Justice Brett Kavanaugh

 Legal Insurrection

Though the alleged perpetrator is so far being held to account, the powerful Democratic figures, pro-abortion dark money groups and activists who fanned the flames and stoked the woke outrage mobs that swarmed the conservative Justices’ homes have not been.

"One year ago today, news broke that a gunman had been arrested outside the home of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in the midst of the “protests” that had been taking place outside his home and that of the other conservative Justices in the aftermath of the purposeful May 2022 leak of the draft opinion that indicated the court was likely about to overturn Roe vs. Wade.

"What we learned about the alleged perpetrator, 26-year-old radical leftist Nicholas John Roske, and his plans were nothing short of stunning. According to the Criminal Complaint and Supporting Affidavit, Roske’s suitcase and backpack contained “a black tactical chest rig and tactical knife, a Glock 17 pistol with two magazines and ammunition, pepper spray, zip ties, a hammer, screwdriver, nail punch, crow bar, pistol light, duct tape, hiking boots with padding on the outside of the soles, and other items.”

Also, per the Supporting Affidavit, Roske admitted that “he was upset about the leak of a recent Supreme Court draft decision regarding the right to abortion as well as the recent school shooting in Uvalde, Texas.” And because he wanted to “give his life a purpose,” he decided he wanted to murder Kavanaugh “after finding the Justice’s Montgomery County address on the Internet.”

"A month later, we learned from an FBI warrant that Roske allegedly intended to kill a total of three Supreme Court Justices.

" 'Yeah but I could get at least one, which would change the votes for decades to come, and I am shooting for three,” Roske allegedly posted on online platforms. “Shooting for three.' ” . . .

It’s Time to Cancel Pride Month -

"So the pressure comes from the financial elite, and it turns the corporations woke, and the woke corporations saturate the market with queer advocacy in pursuit of the fascist ESG social credit score it’s demanded that they satisfy. And Pride Month turns into not a celebration at all but rather an exercise of political and cultural dominance on the part of people nobody voted for."

Trick or Treat!

The American Spectator | USA News and Politics   "Recently, a nasty Pride Month meme was shared by a single woman of my acquaintance, who commonly complains that there are no good men out there, on social media:

I wouldn’t have even bothered to notice, as this is just one more in an endless series of social media items making the rounds. But when it was shared several dozen times, it struck me that the attitude behind this obnoxious bit of provocation is almost mainstream. 

"What it demonstrates is that there’s a backlash to the backlash. Or, put another way, the pattern of never-ending escalation is, well, escalating.

"Because it’s not just middle-aged corporate employees with unsatisfying personal lives pushing the rainbow flag down everyone’s throats. Here’s somebody a whole lot more consequential:

" And don’t think for one second that people like BlackRock CEO Larry Fink arrogating to themselves the power to “force behavior” is just a lot of hot air. The conspiracy theorists turned out to be right on this one.

Biden’s Banana Republic; Fact? Hillary Clinton broke the law in handling her emails. No indictment.

 For the first time in U.S. history, the prosecutorial power of the federal government has been used against a former President who is also running against the sitting President.

Biden’s Banana Republic - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  "It was amazing to see Attorney General Merrick Garland’s appointed special counsel, Jack Smith, step in front of the cameras and say of the indictment of former President Donald Trump: “No one is above the law.”

"Which is to say, Jack Smith looked the American people in the eye and straight up lied. It was the stuff of a banana republic.

"Fact? Joe Biden, who did the same thing with classified documents as Donald Trump — and four times over — is not being indicted. He is above the law.

"Fact? As Rep. James Comer’s House Oversight Committee is revealing, Joe Biden now stands accused of routinely accepting bribes from China to enrich his family. No indictment forthcoming. Because Joe Biden is above the law.

"As the New York Post reports: 

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has said the FBI has additional documents expanding on an informant file alleging President Biden participated in a multimillion-dollar bribery scheme during his vice presidency.

" Fact? Hillary Clinton broke the law in handling her emails. No indictment. Because Hillary Clinton is above the law.

 "All of which is to say that Biden, Garland, and Smith — with ex-FBI Director James Comey coming in right behind them — are four of the most corrupt officials to come down the pike in all of American history.

"No less than the Wall Street Journal, no fan of the former president, correctly warns that: 

[H]is indictment by President Biden’s Justice Department is a fraught moment for American democracy. For the first time in U.S. history, the prosecutorial power of the federal government has been used against a former President who is also running against the sitting President.

Dems Abandon the Blue-Collar Worker in Favor of 'Social Justice' Warriors -

 Jewish World Review; Salena Zito

Twenty years ago, perhaps even less, Democrats running for office or in office would have been standing in the way of the implosion that happened here last week and chained themselves to the towers or used all of their muscle to halt this industry's demise. Back then, Democrats were the party of the working class, and no one symbolized that more than the boilermakers who worked here.

"CHESWICK, Pennsylvania—Up until two years ago, it would only take 12 hours for coal mined deep in a labyrinth operation 60 miles from here to go from that underground mine, through a high-tech cleaning procedure, and be loaded on a barge or rail car and brought to the Cheswick Generating Station, a coal-fired power plant, to light communities along the Allegheny River for generations.

"That efficient process came to an end in September 2021 when owner GenOn Holdings announced the then-51-year-old facility, one that environmental groups had in their sights for years, decided to retire the plant. The company cited "unfavorable economic conditions, higher costs including those associated with environmental compliance, an inability to compete with other generation types, and evolving market rules that promote subsidized resources."

"In short, the company was driven out of business in part by the "climate justice" movement within the federal and state governments that made doing business unfair, expensive and impossible and, at the same time, made it very favorable for other energy resources they approve of — solar and wind — to get sweetheart subsidies.

"For the past two years, the facility and the two towers that defined this curve of the Allegheny River — one 750 feet tall, the other 552 feet tall, both standing like sentinels of the industry — remained standing. Then, they didn't stand anymore: On Friday, their end of life became a reality when a controlled demolition brought them down.

"Neighbors who have lived below them all of their lives, and the few who left town in search of greener pastures, all gathered, watching the towers' undistinguished death in a heap of dust and dirt.

"Some praised their demise and applauded the change. But those were few. Most people mourned the loss of jobs and how government callously picks winners and losers." . . .

Foretelling America's Descent into Totalitarianism -

 Jeffrey Folks

. . ."There is nothing to prevent America from becoming another murderous society like Nazi Germany or communist Russia in the 20th century.  The Biden administration has already begun the march toward totalitarianism with its proposals to arm even larger numbers of federal agency employees, including some 60,000 new IRS agents, and with its political militarization of the DOJ, FBI, and CIA.  As a nation, we are on a path to destruction.  Only a clear understanding of the danger can save us.

"It is chilling to hear Biden speak of his "defense of democracy," as he does almost daily, when it is his administration's actions that pose the greatest threat to democratic capitalism.  Those of us who care about liberty must stiffen our resolve and take all peaceful actions to defend liberty, free markets, and classical liberalism.  The alternative is a dark era of repression and death such as Michael Polanyi witnessed in 20th-century Europe." . . .

A Day of Infamy: Trump Arraigned ›Julie Kelly; American Greatness

No banana republic is complete without influential propagandists doing the regime’s dirty work and there are plenty of them surrounding the Trump indictment.

. . .“Very Serious People” from across the political spectrum marveled over the weekend at Smith’s “speaking” indictment detailing Trump’s alleged crimes. If half the indictment is true, National Review’s Andrew McCarthy warned, Trump is “toast.” Former Attorney General William Barr, apparently too busy primping for his numerous television appearances to scrutinize the indictment on his own, mimicked word-for-word McCarthy’s assessment. (Former federal prosecutors-turned-cable news analysts aren’t known for their originality.)

"John Brennan, the treacherous ex-CIA director who helped concoct the Russian collusion hoax among other covert operations to oust Trump, told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki his former colleagues in the intelligence community are “shuddering” at Smiths’ allegations. Equal application of the law, my foot." . . .

The Biden family crime racket is one of Washington’s worst-kept secrets. But the media continues collectively to ignore the First Family’s blatant—and far more dangerous—law-breaking and instead amplifies imaginary crimes committed by Trump. No banana republic is complete without influential propagandists doing the regime’s dirty work.

"That is the question our nation's leading conservatives are asking themselves after President Joe Biden hosted a Pride event at the White House.

"During the event, the White House hung a Pride flag from the columns of its rear portico, which prompted bizarre outrage from some in the far-right who believed it was an act of treason and an insult to the nation's armed forces. Pride events have become a flashpoint in the right-wing's anti-LGTBQ movement, as Republicans have sought to demonize the movement.

"The ideological coup is complete," wrote Ben Shapiro.

"However, that concern was soon eclipsed after a video went viral of an attendee flashing went viral.

" 'Nation in Decline," wrote one prominent right-wing influencer.

"The video comes from trans TikToker @rosemontoya, who filmed herself meeting President Joe Biden, and held her hands over her breasts while a voiceover asked "Are we topless at the White House?"

Ex-Hillary Clinton Aide Huma Abedin Accuses Senator Of Sexual Assault –

 Def-Con News

Hillary has never come to the rescue of a sexual assault victim in her life. In fact, she has a history of victim-shaming them. 

"Huma Abedin was married to serial pervert Anthony Weiner. She was also rape-enabler Hillary Clinton’s sidekick. Somehow in those vulnerable positions she escaped being sexual assaulted, but apparently a U.S. Senator got her. The former Clinton aide has accused a Senator of sexual assault but she won’t name him, so we know he’s a Democrat.

 Then, after describing a Washington dinner attended by “a few senators and their aides” but not Clinton, Abedin writes: “I ended up walking out with one of the senators, and soon we stopped in front of his building and he invited me in for coffee. Once inside, he told me to make myself comfortable on the couch.”

She says the senator took off his blazer, rolled up his sleeves and made coffee while they continued to talk.

“Then, in an instant, it all changed. He plopped down to my right, put his left arm around my shoulder, and kissed me, pushing his tongue into my mouth, pressing me back on the sofa. . .

“I was so utterly shocked, I pushed him away. All I wanted was for the last 10 seconds to be erased.”

 "Here’s the thing though, I actually do believe Abedin was sexually assaulted by a Senator, but she’s downplaying the details because he is a Democrat. The question is, who is this unnamed rapist?

"We know it’s not a Republican because if it was, she would have named him and given the real details of the assault. Chance is it was also a Senator from New York or the surrounding area. It could have been Chuck Schumer but he’s way too much of a goofball for something like this.

"Joe Biden is pretty handsy and he was a Senator at the time and from the area. If it were him, that would explain why Abedin didn’t name him. Also, what she more or less described sounds pretty close to the way Joe Biden sexually assaulted Tara Reade.

"Although, if Huma Abedin did write that Joe Biden sexually assaulted her, she’d sell a lot more books."

Is This Brand the Next One to Suffer the 'Dylan Mulvaney' Treatment?

 Townhall

. . .Kellogg is going to make cereals undergo a transition, with its final product being a ghastly creature that will repel most of the market. If the woke Left can ruin beer, of all things, they can destroy cereal.

"Dylan Mulvaney, a biological male feigning womanhood, has become a market grim reaper. Mulvaney kills everything in sight. Bud Light, the king of beers, took less than two months to lose billions after the company entered a marketing partnership with Mulvaney, who quickly turned the beer into a punchline. Bud has lost billions since this disastrous endeavor, with some executives taking leaves of absence over the fallout. If Bud’s evisceration in the marketplace over these woke antics isn’t a red flag, I don’t know what will serve as one. 

"Mulvaney’s latest victim of market brutalization was spotted at the Tony Awards: Tony the Tiger. Yes, Kellogg could be the next brand to enter consumer hell to appease the smallest of minorities in America. Will Frosted Flakes go the way of Bud Light?

How an ambivalent man became the champion of antislavery

 JUNETEENTH: HOW AMERICA’S FIRST GOP PRESIDENT FREED THE DEMOCRATS’ SLAVES (substack.com)

How an ambivalent man became the champion of antislavery

"Abraham Lincoln, elected in 1860, was the first president of the newly-formed Republican Party.  The Republican Party was created in 1854 from an anti-slavery coalition of the Whig Party, the Free-Soiler Party and American Party (AKA Know-Nothings).  The new party argued that free market labor was superior to slavery and was the very foundation of civic virtue and true Republicanism.

"As the Civil War raged on, President Lincoln offered the Confederate States a chance to surrender.  He issued a preliminary draft of the Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1862, a year & a half after the war began.  It stipulated, if the Southern states did not cease their rebellion by January 1, 1863, the proclamation would go into effect.

"Hearing nothing from the Confederacy, President Lincoln issued his proclamation on January 1, 1863 which declared “that all persons held as slaves” within the rebellious states “are, and henceforward shall be free.”

"Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation was 719 hand-written words.  The most significant part reads as follows:

By the President of the United States of America:

And by virtue of the power, and for the purpose aforesaid, I do order and declare that all persons held as slaves within said designated States, and parts of States, are, and henceforward shall be free; and that the Executive government of the United States, including the military and naval authorities thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of said persons.

And I hereby enjoin upon the people so declared to be free to abstain from all violence, unless in necessary self-defence; and I recommend to them that, in all cases when allowed, they labor faithfully for reasonable wages.

And I further declare and make known, that such persons of suitable condition, will be received into the armed service of the United States to garrison forts, positions, stations, and other places, and to man vessels of all sorts in said service.

And upon this act, sincerely believed to be an act of justice, warranted by the Constitution, upon military necessity, I invoke the considerate judgment of mankind, and the gracious favor of Almighty God.

We must fear those who make up the Democrat Party

 The FBI has hunted Trump supporters anywhere near the U.S. Capitol on January 6, arresting them and serving them up to the Department of Justice for draconian prosecution.

'Banana Republic of America' - Washington Times   "The term “banana republic” describes a politically unstable country. What often comes to mind when one hears the term is a Central American or African country in which the ruling elites run their government as their own personal enterprise, exploiting the masses to keep power and enrich themselves. Government and select business officials manipulate the law of the land only for their own benefit. The well-being and needs of the population at large is not the concern of the ruler, and there are most certainly no rules under which a regular person can appeal a government decision. One remarkable similarity in virtually every banana republic is that confidence in government is non-existent.

"It appears the United States of America is well on the path to earn the less-than-coveted title of “Banana Republic of America.”. . .

America Has Become a Banana Republic - Rasmussen Reports®   "Dictators and tyrants arrest or murder their political opponents. Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Castro, and Chavez are but a few examples. Their power is absolute, and any opposition is hastily eliminated, regardless of laws, ethics, or decency.

"Is America, under the reign of President Joe Biden, following a similar path? Will Biden be added to the above Banana Republic hall of fame?

" The Obama and Biden administrations weaponized the behemoth federal law enforcement, judicial, and intelligence agencies to advance their political agendas and stifle all opposition. We have traveled far from Ronald Reagan’s “shining city on a hill” to the current Banana Republic of America.". . .

Leaders who had their political opponents arrested

. . ." Start with the FBI whose mission is “To protect the American people and uphold the US Constitution.” Their motto is “Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity.” They are failing on all counts and are now the muscled arm of the Democrat party.

"Start with revelations from the Durham Report, and previously the Weissman/Mueller reports. The FBI, CIA and DOJ knowingly and deliberately used bogus and unverified opposition research from the Clinton campaign to spy on Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, his transition, and then his administration.

"They colluded with foreign agents, fitting the definition of treason, to overthrow the duly elected President of the United States. The FBI conspired with Russian agent Igor Danchenko who, along with British agent Christopher Steele, concocted the bogus “Steele Dossier” used as the basis of spying and undermining the Trump campaign and administration." . . .
