This Has to Be the End of the Road for Mitch McConnell

  The American Spectator | USA News and Politics

Republican voters now know that the GOP candidate running for the Senate is utterly worthless on the border issue.


"Sure, Old Joe Biden is a liar, a practice
d and accomplished liar who has told countless whoppers throughout his entire half-century (and counting) of fattening at the public trough. Still, the sheer audacity of his lies can leave his hearers gasping for breath at how completely bereft he appears to be of an ordinary human conscience. On Friday, the man who thinks he’s president demonstrated that he also seems to think he is in a world not only without the Internet, but without newspapers or human beings with memories. 

"Fox News made the momentous announcement: Old Joe “said he does not believe the border is secure, adding that has been his stance for the past 10 years as he has continued to ask for money.”

"Wait, what? Biden has been calling attention to the crisis at the border for ten years? In what universe? But that’s really what he said. It all happened when Fox’s White House correspondent, Jacqui Heinrich, asked the brazen kleptocrat about the House effort to impeach one of Biden’s chief henchmen, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Fox noted with impressive understatement that the Dementia-Patient-In-Chief “responded with a confused look."

"Undeterred, Henrich then asked Biden if he thought that the border was secure. This was an invitation for the corrupt old liar to echo his man Mayorkas himself, who got off a pretty sizable lie of his own in July 2022 when he said: “Look, the border is secure. We are working to make the border more secure. That has been a historic challenge.” 

"Unexpectedly, however, Old Joe broke from his own regime’s line and answered: “No, it’s not.” As if that weren’t enough, he started piling it on, adding: “I haven’t believed it for the last 10 years. And I’ve said it for the last 10 years…give me the money.” 

"Yes, that’s right. This is the man who proudly halted the construction of Trump’s border wall and oversaw an influx of illegal migrants into this country that is unprecedented in scope, and now he is posing as the Cassandra who has been warning us about the crisis at the border for ten years, which would take us back to 2014.

"Let’s see. Who was president of the United States in 2014? If Biden had his way, we wouldn’t quite be able to remember, but I believe it was a fellow who was fairly close to Old Joe. If my memory serves me well, Biden himself may have been involved in that administration. 

"Of course, Biden didn’t mean it was Obama’s fault. He appears to have been blaming those dastardly Republicans who have apparently spent a decade rejecting his requests for funding to secure the border. When Henrich asked him if his own disastrous regime’s policies had any share in the blame for the catastrophe at the border, he responded: “No, I’ve…I’ve asked for thousands more, of everything – from judges to…anyway.” He asked for money from judges? Sure, Joe. Have another ice cream cone." . . .

Super Bowl Wokeism: Are You Sick of It, Too?

The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  

"They had someone sing the “Black National Anthem” before the Super Bowl.

Are you sick of it? #MeToo." (Joy Reid is gonna get you, you know?)

"Here’s how sick of it: I actually had the pre-game show on my TV just so that I could walk out of the room the moment they started singing that nonsense. I then came back in for “America the Beautiful” and “The Star-Spangled Banner.” And I stood for both.

"Aren’t we supposed to be One Nation under G-d, Indivisible?

"We have one national anthem: the Star-Spangled Banner. Thanks to our crack public education system, most Americans don’t understand all its words: hailed, ramparts, o’er. So what? Learn them. Look them up. That’s why G-d gave us Al Gore to create the internet. And that high note? That highlights the word “free.” So do your best when you sing it and celebrate those who can hit it. But that is our song. That is our theme, the theme of One Nation. Listen to a stadium of hockey fans sing it. Sounds pretty darn good, huh? Listen here as Canadians honor it.

"There is nothing wrong with cherishing one’s unique ethnic heritage: Irish, German, Polish, Scottish, African, Italian, Jewish, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Armenian, Mexican, Cuban, Venezuelan. Cherish your heritage. Learn that history, too. Learn the vernacular associated with your forebears: Spanish, Italian, German, Polish, Armenian, Hebrew, Yiddish, Tagalog, Mandarin, Gaelic, Whatever. Learn your history, your family tree, how you got here.

"But make English your official language. We should not need language choices on the phone when we call the utility company or on election ballots. We are One Nation. We always had One Language. We have One National Anthem.

"When I call the utility company, why should I be given choices of languages? Are you sick of it? #MeToo. My grandparents came here speaking Yiddish. They knew a bit of Russian, a bit of Polish, but not a word of English. To their last days, they spoke their English with accents they never could shake. But they learned English soon enough and knew and understood English. The utility company did not offer them a Yiddish option. They did not get ballots in Yiddish. So they learned English. Their children all excelled in unaccented English. Their grandchildren? Heck, I am an Orthodox rabbi, and I am proficient in English.

"I love the Star-Spangled Banner, both the banner itself and the anthem. When it is played on TV, I stand, even though no one else is in the room except for G-d and me. I stand for that anthem that stands for this country that has afforded so much opportunity to my grandparents, my parents, uncles, aunts, cousins, siblings, and children. This is a great country. And that’s all we ever asked for: opportunity. Just give us a chance. Not reparations. Not handouts. Not “entitlements.” Just a chance. We’ll take it from there.

"Yes, America has been marked by episodes of anti-Semitism. And yet, for the overwhelming most part, it has bestowed liberty and justice for all. This country’s “original sin” of slavery is an indelible stain of shame on its history, but that ended more than 150 years ago. And at least 316,222 Union soldiers, primarily White men, died fighting and ending slavery. Those who play victim today over slavery do nothing but enslave themselves. Those who look upon that past and defiantly determine to succeed in an era of advantaged opportunity are the ones who succeed and for whom the sky is the limit, and will be for their children." . . .

Biden Regime Again Shows Which Side It’s On, and It's Not on Israel's

Hamas’ terrorists recorded their barbaric atrocities on body cameras and cell phones to proudly display their crimes and gloat about them. Many of these cameras were recovered from neutralized terrorists. Now the whole world can see Hamas’ unfathomable savagery.

 PJ 

Actual questions of justice and the rules of warfare are out the window here. This is just naked and shameless pandering for votes. That it might result in a world-historical victory for the forces of the global jihad matters to the Biden regime not one bit.Media 

Is that Rashida Tlaib's foot on the Israeli soldier?


"The Biden regime has been under heavy pressure from its far-left base for months. Foes of Israel have repeatedly demanded that Biden’s handlers punish the Jewish state for defending itself, or else they’ll lose their votes in November. Clearly, the Biden camp has been listening, and now the matter has come to a head: the Biden regime has actually threatened our foremost ally in the Middle East with a cutoff of military aid.

"The Jerusalem Post
HAMAS MASSACRE
 reported that “Biden issued a memorandum on Thursday night asking countries receiving US military funding to prove they’re following international humanitarian and human rights laws.” There is only one country to which that pertains at the moment, and as the Post pointed out “the timing of the memorandum coincides with President Biden’s unscheduled press conference where he took reporters’ questions on the Israel-Hamas war, saying Israel’s response is ‘over the top.’”

"This has been coming for a long time. Nihad Awad, executive director of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), who infamously said that he was “happy” about Hamas’ Oct. 7 jihad massacre of 1,200 Israelis, thundered at a November pro-Hamas rally: “No cease-fire, no votes. No votes in Michigan, no votes in Arizona, no votes in Georgia, no votes in Nevada, no votes in Wisconsin, no votes in Pennsylvania."

Queen Rashida

"These were, of course, the states that allowed Old Joe to pretend to be president over the last three years. Awad concluded: "No votes for you anywhere if you don’t call for a ceasefire now." Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Ramallah) added: "The American people won’t forget. Biden, support a ceasefire now. Or don’t count on us in 2024.”

"In mid-January, the “March on Washington for Gaza” boiled over into violence at the White House, as thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators stormed the security fence and forced the evacuation of “non-essential employees” from the building. Then last week, Fox News reported that Biden was “facing an electoral revolt among Arab and Muslim voters in Michigan who are outraged by his ongoing support for Israel, with some even accusing him of enabling genocide.” They even launched an "abandon Biden" campaign in Dearborn." . . .

Biden Sends Delegation to Meet With Hamas Supporter | Frontpage Mag   ... "In 2022, Osama Siblani, the publisher of Arab American Newsdeclared at a rally, “We are the Arabs that are going to lift Palestinians all the way to victory. Whether we are in Michigan, and whether we are in Jenin. Believe me. Everyone should fight within his means. They will fight with stones. Others will fight with guns. Others will fight with planes, drones. And others will fight with rockets. And others will fight in their voice, and the others will fight with their hands and say free, free Palestine!”

“Mr. Bush believes Hezbollah, Hamas and other Palestinian factions are terrorists, but we believe they are freedom fighters,” Osama Siblani had told the Washington Post."

So Schindler's List" was about German freedom fighters all along?

Ireland Women's Basketball Team Refuses to Shake Hands With Israeli Squad, but Israel Gets Last Laugh

 RedState  

Throughout history, the Irish have received vaguely similar disrespect as the Jews, but without the crematoriums. Enough alike that they of all nationalities should have a heart for Israel. TD

It doesn't seem they feel good about the way they treat the Israelis

 . . ."You don't exactly look good when you want to boycott the country that has been attacked by terrorists and is fighting back. You look pretty scummy. You look like you're being supportive of terrorists who slaughtered more than 1,200 people and took hostages that they are still holding. So no, you aren't being the honorable ones in this circumstance. It's the delusion that some on the left have here.". . .

"In an incredibly racist & unsportsmanlike behavior, the Irish Women's Basketball team refused to shake hands with their Israeli opponents in the #EuroBasketWomen game.

"Oh, and then they also lost to Israel 57-87!

The expressions on the Irish faces indicate to me they don't feel good about what they are doing. TD

. . ."The Irish team decided to prove they were bad sports, and on top of that, they fell for bad propaganda. 

"Basketball Ireland informed FIBA Europe yesterday that as a direct result of recent comments made by Israeli players and coaching staff - including inflammatory and wholly inaccurate accusations of anti-Semitism, published on official Israeli Federation channels - that our players will not be partaking in traditional pre-match arrangements with our upcoming opponents," the statement read. 

"This includes exchanging of gifts, formal handshakes before or after the game, while our players will line up for the Irish national anthem by our bench rather than centre court. Basketball Ireland fully supports our players in their decision."

"You don't exactly look good when you want to boycott the country that has been attacked by terrorists and is fighting back. You look pretty scummy. You look like you're being supportive of terrorists who slaughtered more than 1,200 people and took hostages that they are still holding. So no, you aren't being the honorable ones in this circumstance. It's the delusion that some on the left have here." 

FULL SUMMARY Of The Tucker Carlson – Putin Interview

 100PercentFedUp  "If you missed the Tucker/Putin interview (or didn’t have the time to watch since it was over 2 hours), I’m going to bring you up to speed.

"Wow, there was SO MUCH in here!

"I was surprised by a few things….

"First, Putin seemed calm, rational and extremely shrewd.  I had never heard him talk much, especially not in an open format, long form interview.

"He came off as extremely intelligent but not at ally tyrannical.

"He seems like he wants peace.

"Just my take.

" 'Below I have an excellent 30 minute summary video to show you if you don’t have over 2 hours, but first let me give you some smaller clips.

"Starting here — almost sounds like America-First, doesn’t it?"

Biden’s and Blinken’s words do real harm

  JNS.org

These hateful and false descriptions of Israeli actions, which are belied by the unprecedented care that the IDF takes to avoid civilian casualties and that have cost soldiers’ lives, also serve to encourage antisemitism in the United States that has been fueled by efforts to delegitimize Israel and its Jewish supporters. 

"Words matter. That’s the thing to remember about the libelous descriptions of Israel’s efforts to eradicate Hamas terrorists that came forth from both U.S. President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken in recent days. The administration is paying a political price for standing with the Jewish state after the Oct. 7 pogroms that constituted the largest mass slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust. The left-wing intersectional base of the Democratic Party, including officeholders and the president’s re-election campaign staff, is in open revolt against Biden over his refusal to date to cut off the resupply of arms for the Israel Defense Forces or to go along with U.N. Security Council resolutions to impose a ceasefire that would allow Hamas to survive the war and emerge as its victor

"That’s why it’s possible to dismiss the recent statements by Biden accusing Israel of an “over the top” response to the slaughter, rape, torture and kidnapping of its citizens, and demanding a “prolonged pause” in the war as mere rhetoric aimed at easing the political pressure on the administration. Yet those words do matter, and they are doing far more damage than perhaps American observers, who may view them solely in the context of the president’s increasingly desperate political trouble, understand." . . .


SON OF HAMAS FOUNDER says, “Israel must continue its war to destroy Hamas”   ......This is just one of many similar declarations Mosab Hassan Yousef has made about the Hamas-Israel war. It’s a good thing he lives in the United States now, or he would have been a dead man a long time ago.

‘DEARBORNISTAN’ Muslims say, “Nothing Joe Biden does now re: Israel’s retaliatory war against Hamas can win back our support”  So keep up the fight, Joe.

MSNBC's Joy Reid: Texas Is No Different Than The Deep South Resisting Integration

It's not my intention to make these top posts be women. I copied the silliest headlines available and that's just how it all worked out. I mean, Joy Reid, Robin DeAngelo, Sunny Hostin, Elizabeth Warren; c'mon man. TD

  Carver Malone  

  MSNBC's Joy Reid compares @chiproytx's call to protect the southern border to "the old Southerners who said that we will resist integration by any means necessary". To the racial demagogue, everything looks like racism. pic.twitter.com/a876itUHCb

 “There is no better example of what MAGA World wants for the rest of America than Texas,” Reid said.

"Texas officials had been “setting up buoys with buzz saws, barring federal agents from assisting with border control, and passing legislation that makes it a state crime to cross the border,” she said.

"Rep. Chip Roy is “a member of a body and party that could actually do something about immigration … They just refuse to do it because many Republicans now see calling for zero tolerance on the border as the only way to animate their base,” she said.

"Her comments align with the White House’s stance, where Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has defended the Biden administration’s attempts to prevent Texas from securing its own border." . . .

Elizabeth Warren Is A Hamas Apologist

 The Federalist (thefederalist.com)

"Warren doesn’t call for a Hamas surrender. She doesn’t demand that Palestinians return hostages. What she demands is that Israel reward the people who elected, supported, and cheered on the child murders and rapists of Hamas with a new state. . ."  She displays the IQ of the squad ladies. TD

The old raised fist schtick

"Like most anti-Israel progressives, Warren uses Benjamin Netanyahu as a convenient strawman despite knowing well that any Israeli government — actually, any responsible state — whether on the right or left, would be rooting out Hamas right now. And, indeed, every major party in that country, right or left, supports the effort to rid Gaza of Hamas and Islamic Jihad. Contrary to the myth cultivated by the left since the Barack Obama “echo chamber” years, Netanyahu is an elected leader of a democratic nation, not a dictator acting without popular support or outside law.

"Warren then blames Israel for not being able to release the hostages but doesn’t blame Hamas for taking them or the Palestinian civilians for holding them. Warren blames Israel for “killing” people but not Palestinians for massacring Israeli civilians. All of which says a lot about her depraved worldview.

"Warren, like most of the media, relies on Hamas’ completely bogus casualty numbers. Can you imagine news organizations or American politicians passing along ISIS fatality figures with this kind of authority? . . .

The Incredible Shrinking Elizabeth Warren – Issues & Insights (issuesinsights.com) 

Americans know that Biden and his fellow big-spending Democrats such as Elizabeth Warren -– not Frito-Lay or Kimberly-Clark – are to blame for the strain on their family budgets.

 . . ."Warren can’t possibly be this obtuse, can she?

"Think about it for two seconds. Inflation is running rampant, giving manufacturers a choice: raise prices, or keep the price the same and cut back on the quantity.

"Either way, consumers are paying more per unit, which is easy enough for them to tell because pretty much every grocery store in the country lists per-unit costs along with the sticker price.

"Some consumers – like those on a tight budget – might actually appreciate the fact that companies are holding the price steady while cutting back on the number of items in the bag.

"What about the claim that companies are employing this clever trickery to fatten profits? Well, if it’s actually that easy to boost the bottom line using “shrinkflation,” why wouldn’t companies do this all the time? Why wait until now?

"And how, exactly, will Warren “crack down” on this nefarious practice? By mandating that each bag of Doritos and every roll of toilet paper contain a government-mandated number of chips and sheets?" . . .

 

You Can't Make This Up: Champion of Slavery Reparations Sunny Hostin Discovers on "Finding Your Roots" Program that She is a Descendant of Slave Owners from Spain (VIDEO)

 The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hᴏft


"In a twist that sounds like it’s straight out of a satirical comedy, Sunny Hostin, a far-left progressive political commentator and a co-host of The View, experienced a jaw-dropping revelation on PBS’ Finding Your Roots.

"Hostin, an outspoken advocate for slavery reparations, was shocked to learn that her own lineage traces back to Spanish slave owners.

"The episode left the 55-year-old far-left host grappling with a complex personal revelation.

"Hostin, whose mother is Puerto Rican and father is African American, has long identified with her Puerto Rican heritage and the civil rights movement.

"However, the PBS series hosted by Henry Louis Gates Jr. uncovered that Hostin’s maternal ancestors were far from the freedom fighters she had imagined; they were slave owners in Spain.

"According to Daily Mail, Hostin’s third great-grandfather, Fermín, a son of a Spanish merchant who was likely involved in the slave trade, was revealed to have owned slaves. Hostin also found out that she is only 7% indigenous Puerto Rican.

" 'Wow, I’m a little bit in shock. I just always thought of myself as half Puerto Rican. I didn’t think my family was originally from Spain and slaveholders,” she said." . . .

She can still be Vice-President or Attorney-General of California. TD

Robin DiAngelo claims Sistine Chapel is peak ‘white supremacy’—can’t identify Adam in the painting

From liberal writers to local garage bands, if you can display the angry schtick you are on your way up. TD

 The Post Millennial | thepostmillennial.com

"She then sums it all up concisely with "Whoo. January 6th. I mean, confederate flag, it's just," she shrugs. "I mean, you know. It's just all connected.' " 

"Last month, a seemingly obscure podcast had quite a notable guest: Robin DiAngelo. Over the course of the interview, DiAngelo, well known for her books and lectures in which she posits that all white people, including herself, are racist, DiAngelo spoke incoherently at times, made bizarre statements that topped even the top tier of her usual race-baiting drivel, and behaved in a befuddled and bizarre way that rivaled the magnitude of endless gaffes and head scratchers that we have come to expect from Biden. 

"The most harrowing hint that something had run amuck with the author of White Fragility and Nice Racism came with DiAngelo explaining that when she does a presentation, "the single image" she uses "to capture the concept of white supremacy is "Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel. God creating man. Y'know where God is in a cloud and there's all these angels and He's reaching out and He's touching—I dunno who that is—David or something?" 

"Thrusting her hands toward the camera and touching her fingertips together repeatedly to mimic what one can only assume is the iconic imagery of God reaching out to Adam, not "David or something," DiAngelo continues, "And God is white and David is white and the angels are white—like that is the perfect convergence of white supremacy, patriarchy, right?' " . . .

Denny’s joins In-N-Out Burger abandoning its sole Oakland store due to crime

 Why can't the police watch the place? Oh, wait! I forgot we defunded them when AOC and her people told us to. We defunded them in honor of  George Floyd, for who we knelt in honor of and destroyed cities.   TD

Thomas Lifson - American Thinker

"Either way, we see that criminals are being allowed to take control of city neighborhoods, much as the cartels of Mexico are the de facto government of parts of that nation. It can only be understood as the breakdown of civilization."

"Oakland, California, is ceding control of its local commerce to criminals, due to a Soros-backed prosecutor and chronic short staffing at the Oakland PD, which cannot recruit enough new cops to replace retirements and resignations -- despite six-figure starting salaries. There's more going on than that, though. The departure of two prominent restaurant chains from the city reveals a horrifying pattern that the national media entirely miss.

"First, In-N-Out Burger announced that it was closing its only Oakland store, despite it being profitable.  The company’s CEO issued a statement:

Despite taking repeated steps to create safer conditions, our Customers and Associates are regularly victimized by car break-ins, property damage, theft, and armed robberies. Our last day of business in Oakland will be March 24, 2024.

We are grateful for the local community, which has supported us for over 18 years, and we recognize that this closure negatively impacts our Associates and their families. Additionally, this location remains a busy and profitable one for the company, but our top priority must be the safety and wellbeing of our Customers and Associates – we cannot ask them to visit or work in an unsafe environment. . . .

 . . ."After the renters park and go inside, the gangs of thieves, who realize that expensive items like laptop computers can be found in the luggage locked in the trunk, strike within minutes.  So, they target such rental car returns, which are pretty easy to spot since they are late-model cars and usually have stickers identifying the fleet that they belong to." . . .

Biden Calls For The President To Step Down | Babylon Bee  "After the shock of a Special Counsel report that characterized the President as mentally incompetent to stand trial, Biden has joined the growing chorus of voices in calling for the President to step down. "President Hoover needs to do the right thing. He's in over his head. Can't even do his job right," said Biden to the nurse administering him his daily medications. "Eisenhower is an honorable man, and he needs to do the honorable thing. I was speaking with Emperor Hirohito about it just last Saturwednesday. Blamflibbernuzzit!"
