Mike Pence's Secret Notes About His Conversations With Trump Revealed in Latest Indictment

 Mike Pence's Secret Notes About His Conversations With Trump Revealed in Latest Indictment (resistthemainstream.com)

"The Justice Department indicted former President Donald Trump a third time in four months. The indictment flows from testimony and evidence provided by former Vice President Mike Pence.

"Pence, a current GOP presidential contender, took “contemporaneous notes” of his conversations with Trump in the days and weeks leading up to the breach of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

"The new 45-page indictment alleges that testimony before the Jan. 6 Select Committee and Pence’s memoir, “So Help Me God,” indicates Trump knowingly made multiple false statements regarding the 2020 election.

"An excerpt from the indictment reads:

“As the January 6 congressional certification proceeding approached and other efforts to impair, obstruct, and defeat the federal government function failed, [Trump] sought to enlist the Vice President to use his ceremonial role at the certification to fraudulently alter the election results.”. . .

Mike Pence: No surprises - American Thinker 

 . . .We know his ego was bruised by Trump’s typically honest and sharp reaction to his singular cravenness in passing on the relatively mild opportunity to send the pending election results back to the States.

But is that all this really is? Is Pence just bruised?. . .

An Avowed 'Anti-Trumper' Has a Surprising Moment of Self-Awareness, and Then It All Falls Apart – RedState  

Education doesn’t cause someone to believe that a man can become a woman. Politics does. Brooks is correct, though, that normal people are left walking on eggshells, wondering what word has been rendered offensive on any given day.

 "Sometimes I see a piece published that genuinely surprises me. That happened on Thursday morning when I came across David Brooks’ latest at The New York Times.

"The self-described “anti-Trumper” has spent years denigrating the Republican Party and its voters, insisting that he and his like-minded cohorts truly know what’s best. Brooks has been one of the more self-righteous examples of that anti-Trump movement, going from someone who once called Scooter Libby’s conviction a “farce” to fawning over the crease in Barack Obama’s pants.

"Still, in his latest writing, Brooks managed to have a brief moment of self-awareness, describing how the “elites” in modern culture preach diversity and equity to the downtrodden while setting up systems that ultimately benefit themselves.

The meritocracy isn’t only a system of exclusion; it’s an ethos. During his presidency Barack Obama used the word “smart” in the context of his policies over 900 times. The implication was that anybody who disagreed with his policies (and perhaps didn’t go to Harvard Law) must be stupid.. . .

Enjoy your water heater while you still can; Democrats again

Why are they doing this to us? TD

 Washington Examiner

"Ever heard the phrase “Give someone an inch and they’ll take a mile”? Americans gave Joe Biden the Oval Office, and now he is taking away their cars , dishwashers, gas stoves , and, most recently, their water heaters.

'Biden’s Department of Energy on July 21 released new proposed energy-efficiency standards for water heaters. This is the latest round in the administration’s ongoing home-invasion campaign in the name of stopping climate change and saving the world, all while actively making life harder for everyday Americans.

AD

'If finalized as currently written, beginning in 2029, this regulation would require new boiler installations to use electric heat pumps , which pull heat from the surrounding air to bring water up to temperature, instead of heating the water internally. Moreover, standards for traditional gas-fired water heaters will become stricter, thus making them more costly, which is in line with the Biden administration’s push toward full home appliance electrification.

'This latest efficiency mandate, like the ones that came before, stems from the Environmental Policy and Conservation Act of 1975, signed into law by President Gerald Ford at a time when there were great fears of energy scarcity. But in 2023, with the advent of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, more energy is available to us now than ever before. According to the Energy Information Administration, in 1975 America imported more than 5,800 barrels of crude oil and petroleum products daily. But in 2023, America is the largest producer of oil and natural gas in the world and a net exporter of them.

"Following Biden’s crackdown on dishwashers , the water heater rule is the latest in a long series of attempts (in 18 categories, to be exact) to restrict Americans’ ability to enjoy cheap, reliable energy, brought to us by conventional fuels. The onerous home appliance efficiency mandates will raise prices of appliances, disproportionately hurting poor people and small businesses." . . .

Hunter Biden investigation: Why the Devon Archer testimony is so important | Washington Examiner   "When Devon Archer sits down on Monday with the House Oversight Committee, the Hunter Biden investigation could enter a new and more significant phase.

"That’s because Archer, a former business partner of Hunter Biden’s and a former friend to the family, is expected to testify about the extent of President Joe Biden’s involvement in his son’s foreign business dealings, potentially roping the president more deeply into a scandal he has thus far studiously avoided.

"Archer will be the closest business associate of Hunter Biden’s to speak with Congress to date. The two served together on the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, and handled a range of other business deals together through Rosemont Seneca, their investment firm.

"While other witnesses have discussed the evidence that Hunter Biden engaged in illegal activity during his time working for overseas companies, Archer’s testimony could be the first that directly links Joe Biden to the lobbying his son did." . . .

Devon Archer, the man who will testify to Congress about his business dealings with Hunter Biden: Who is he? | Fox News    "Devon Archer, Hunter Biden’s longtime friend and business associate, is expected to testify on Capitol Hill Monday and share intimate details about foreign ventures he worked on and the level at which President Biden was allegedly involved.

It’s Year 5 of the Biden Crime Family Coverup | RealClearPolitics  "A truism that came out of the Watergate scandal is that often the coverup is worse than the crime. But that is not the case in the unraveling Bidengate scandal. The alleged crime here is so bad that it is probably the worst ever committed by an American president.

"Yet the coverup should be studied, too. It deserves superlatives for its longevity, inventiveness, and sheer audacity. The strategy has been simple: deny, deflect, destroy. Deny the facts. Deflect with distractions, and when all else fails, work tirelessly to destroy Trump, who was among the first to raise questions about the Biden family’s shady dealings. At Year 5, it may be the most successful coverup in modern history, especially since so many of the facts have been in plain sight for the entire time." . . . 

"Hunter Biden might be in prison now, and his father would have retired to Delaware to live out his final years in shame.

"Instead, Democrats in Congress put Trump on trial for daring to notice that which must not be named – the influence-peddling scheme run by Joe Biden and his kin. The impeachment was America’s crash course on Ukrainian corruption, but somehow the mainstream media missed the story and tried to convince the public that Biden was the victim. They hid the evidence then, just as they did last week when Hunter Biden’s sweetheart plea deal fell apart." . . .

UPDATE: Douglas Murray mocks media yet to cover Hunter Biden's 'sweetheart' plea deal rejection    "Many media outlets have not yet covered Hunter Biden’s misdemeanours, and his “sweetheart” plea deal rejection has been a “surprise” to them, according to author Douglas Murray.

“ 'It was meant to see him plead on these relatively small minor charges, get a slap on the wrist and then get on with things,” Mr Murray told Sky News host Rita Panahi. “ 'But the judge in Delaware, it turned out, hadn’t been spoken to, as it were. She made sure that she actually read the detail of it and wasn't happy with it.' ”

Clown Alert! Four Things the Leftists Hope You Missed This Week –

Schumer and his little fists again

1. Jason Aldean’s “Racist” Courthouse

First, let’s talk about that Jason Aldean video that keeps your green-haired, trans-pansexual sister-in-law awake at night. Never mind that she/zhe/sheep never heard of Aldean before. Once zhe/zsa-zsa was told to jump, compliance kicked in.

The leftoid cranks screamed that Aldean’s video promoted lynching after an unemployed C.H.U.D. popped out of mumsie’s basement and revealed that a century ago, a black man was hung in front of the courthouse that is seen throughout the video.

How dare Aldean not search the history of what might have happened near a building?

What the self-loathers on the left failed to realize — or chose to ignore — is that Miley Cyrus, as Hannah Montana, shot a scene in front of the same building in her 2009 film, “The Movie.”

So it was just revealed that Paramount shot a scene in one of their Christmas movies at the same courthouse that Jason Aldean’s new music was shot at. Plus, there’s a scene at the same courthouse in the Hannah Montana movie. So is @paramountplus and Hannah Montana racist too? pic.twitter.com/dZfHPgKdAF

Why did Cyrus get a pass and not Aldean? Do you really need me to answer that? Okay!

Aldean is one of those abhorrent, straight, white men, and he is — even worse — a country music artist. I count four reasons for the left to fear him and weep violently into their N-95s." . . .   Keep reading; there's more.

Europe will be the Battleground … again

 EXCLUSIVE interview with Paul Craig Roberts: Europe will be the Battleground ... again - Herland Report (hannenabintuherland.com)

Dr. Paul Craig Roberts said in this exclusive interview to Herland Report, taped in 2018: “If there is a war, Europe is going to disappear. The Russians have already said that they will not fight another war on their territory. There are no independent governments in Europe, Washington owns them.” Say again?

 “If Russia and China have insulated themselves, it would be an enormous rise in power of Russia in the East and the complete collapse of the Western power. It would be like a world revolution. That would be the last thing that the Central Banks in the West would want because their main function is to expand Western financial hegemony.”

"Dr. Paul Craig Roberts is one of the leading political economists in the USA, awarded by the Treasury Department for “his outstanding contributions to the formulation of United States economic policy.”  He is also the chairman of the Institute for Political Economy, a former Wall Street editor, and an author of many books.

"Free intellectuals is a scarcity today. Most academics are dependent on state or private structures that demand conformity of opinion, while free thinkers such as Dr. Roberts depends on no one. It gives him a unique position to speak his mind, based on a lifetime of experience." . . .

Transgender researchers suffer from ‘traumatic harm’ when STEM students mock survey questions in their answers

 Eric Utter; American Thinker   . . ."Apparently, some students did not take the survey as

seriously as the gender researchers did, and have therefore drawn the ire of the intrepid, if
humorless, investigators. Of the 349 completed responses, 50 were of a mocking variety, and deemed “malicious” by the scientists -- who said they included “slurs, hate speech, or direct targeting of the research team.”

"Fully 12 percent of the “malicious” respondents identified their gender as an "Apache attack helicopter" (or similar aircraft), an apparent reference to a long-running meme meant to make light of individuals identifying as a broad range of “genders.”

"One student had the sheer audacity to write:

“I believe that is what is wrong with higher education. Students should be taught to focus on their chosen field and not their gender.”

"Students should be instructed in their chosen field, the one they are paying through the nose for, instead of being subjected to a radical social agenda? Egads!

"Another respondent wrote, “While I of course do not condone bullying or discrimination, I wish people in universities (especially the faculty) would not focus so much on gender and identity. That doesn’t matter.” Telling the faculty that’s supposed to be serving you that gender isn’t important to you, but being educated in your field is? The temerity! Hitler alert, Hitler alert!" . . .

That last comment turned out to be prescient: the OSU response turned out to be an accusation of fascism. We look for wisdom in the proper places and find only politically-driven silliness. TD

Biden the Democrat's albatross

 

'An albatross round his neck':  This phrase refers to lines from the poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, in which the eponymous mariner, who shoots an albatross, is obliged to carry the burden of the bird hung around his neck as a punishment for and reminder of his ill deed.

Joe Biden’s Defense ‘I’m Not Corrupt, I’m Just A Horrible Father!’ (townhall.com)

"I really don’t like the President of the United States. Joe Biden has spent his life working tirelessly toward one thing more than anything else: to convince people he is a good man. He is not and never has been, as evidenced by how it took four years and political pressure from New York Times columnists to acknowledge the existence of one of his grandchildren. Now that people are beginning to notice and ask questions about things like how he got so rich, Joe has defaulted to the only defense left for him: He’s not corrupt, he’s just a horrible parent and brother." . . .

Even his supporters cringed when he was seen sniffing the hair, rubbing the shoulders or whispering into the ears of unsuspecting females, some of them minors.

The most inexplicable chant surfaces in Berlin demonstration -

 Thomas Lifson; American Thinker  "I understand the progressives' concept of intersectionality, but does that include supporting people who want to kill you?

"I refer to a phenomenon found many places, but which cropped up Saturday in Berlin.  People at a "queer pride" demonstration there were chanting, "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free."

"In case you don't recognize the chant, it refers to the process of driving the Jews of Israel into the sea — that is, exterminating them — so that a made-up nation called "Palestine" can become the world's 58th officially Islamic state.

"Yes, it is horrific on its surface, but that's not what makes the chant so odd.  As virtually everyone reading this already knows, Islam condemns homosexuality and other forms of "queerness," and its scripture calls for the death penalty.  Meanwhile, Israel, which the demonstrators want ethnically cleansed of Jews, tolerates and even supports all aspects of the queer movement.

"Here is what happens to homosexuals in the West Bank:

Gay Palestinian Ahmad Abu Marhia beheaded in West Bank

Palestinian police have arrested a suspect in the killing of a 25-year-old man after his body was found decapitated in the occupied West Bank.

LGBTQ groups in Israel, where Ahmad Abu Marhia was seeking asylum, say he had received threats because he was gay.

"So the Berlin demonstrators want to exterminate the nation where this poor unfortunate sought refuge and turn the territory over to his executioners."

How about an honest headline and article from MSNBC for a change?

 Jack Hellner   "It would read. "The media will eventually be forced to cover the history of Biden family corruption,” instead of: 

Hunter Biden can't stop gifting the GOP with potential scandals

Allegations about Hunter Biden’s art sales could cause a new political headache.

Another potential Hunter Biden scandal appears to be brewing. This time it’s about his foray into the world of fine art and a media report that he sold art with a high price tag to a Democratic donor.

Biden’s attempt to break into the art world was always going to look bad. Now it could become yet another political headache for President Joe Biden as Republicans dog him for his son’s history of misconduct and impropriety. And it comes as Hunter Biden’s plea deal over federal tax charges unexpectedly unraveled Wednesday.

"This article makes it appear that Joe is an innocent bystander in the Biden Crime family's business of lining the family's pockets with kickbacks when the truth is Joe was always the head of the family crime business.

"Hunter Biden didn't fly on government jets around the World just to keep his dad company. He flew to get kickbacks for the family and Joe has clearly lied for years that he had no idea what Hunter or his brother did in business and that no one in his family ever made money from foreign countries.

"Sadly, MSNBC, along with most of the media, has covered up for the criminal activity of the Bidens and Clintons for years because all they care about is winning elections. They ran lies about Trump and Russian collusion for years with no evidence, but no matter how much evidence they have that Joe Biden participated in business deals with Hunter, they intentionally lie to the public that there is no evidence." . . .

'Squad' Dems vote against honoring police officers killed in line of duty

 'Squad' Dems vote against honoring police officers killed in line of duty (msn.com)

"Two members of progressive group "the Squad" were the only Democrats to vote against a resolution that memorialized police officers killed in the line of duty and expressed condolences to their loved ones.

During a vote Monday recognizing National Police Week, Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., and Cori Bush, D-Mo., uttered the only nays heard from the House floor as the chamber voted on the pro-law enforcement resolution.

The resolution, which passed with unanimous support from Republicans and nearly all Democrats, amended H.Res. 363 title to read: "Resolution memorializing law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty." 

Its passing honored "the 556 law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty, including 224 officers killed in 2022, as well as 332 officers killed in previous years whose stories were recovered during 2022," while also ensuring police are equipped with the resources and training necessary to keeping communities safe." . . .

Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., and Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., were the only two Democrats
to vote against a pro-law enforcement resolution Monday. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.

A radio reporter who was near the protest scene was taken into custody, KABC-TV reported. The sheriff's department later tweeted that the reporter interfered with the arrest of a male protester.

Joe Biden Hit With Ice-Cold Inconvenient Reminder as He Begins 10-Day Vacation –

  RedState

"As RedState reported earlier, our current Oval Office occupant, Joe Biden, headed out Friday for a 10-day vacation which is like the fourth time in a month where he’s taken time off.

"Prior to that, he spent three weekends starting at the end of June at Camp David (two of which were with his son, Hunter) and another was spent kicking back at Rehoboth Beach, which we were told in so many words by U.S. officials equated to one “full day” of Biden being on “official business.”

"But while such an explanation was an insult to the intelligence of American voters, especially those struggling to make ends meet who don’t have the luxury of being able to allegedly conduct “official business” on the beach, it along with Biden’s well-known penchant for embarrassing gaffes, flubs, sounding non-sensical, and looking lost, out of it, and generally confused has provided Biden, who is 80, with an inescapable issue heading into 2024:

"Growing questions about his age, mental acuity, and physical stamina to hold the nation’s top office for another four years should he be re-elected.

"It’s an ice-cold inconvenient reminder that Biden was hit with right off the bat as he began his latest round of “official (vacation) business,” courtesy of this reminder from RNC Research on a late June poll from NBC News:. . .
