CNN host says 'world is upside down' as Michigan poll shows Trump ahead by 20 points on Israel-Gaza

 


Story by Alexander Hall  CNN host Dana Bash marveled Friday at how former President Trump is leading against President Biden on most key issues in Michigan, most notably on the Israel-Gaza war.

"Bash spoke about polling conducted in Michigan and Pennsylvania showing Trump leading in the Great Lakes State and the presumptive candidates tied in the Keystone State. 

"She said that if Trump wins both, Biden cannot afford to lose any other swing states, such as "Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, or Nebraska’s second congressional district, or he will not win the White House."

"The news host went on to express shock that "abortion and democracy" are "the only two issues" where Biden has an advantage in both states. 

"Then you look at other issues: U.S and world affairs, economy, immigration, Israel/Gaza, Trump has an advantage and it's actually- if you look at the Israel-Gaza question, the fact that Trump has a 20-point advantage in Michigan. I mean, the world is upside down," she said." . . .

MICHIGAN ARABS AND MUSLIM COMMUNITY WORK TO BEAT BIDEN IN 2024 RACE: BIDEN 'THINKS WE'RE BLUFFING'

The Biden administration goes to war against Israel

 Andrea Widburg - American Thinker 

So remember, if you vote for anyone but Trump (and this is true whether you like Trump or not), you are voting to keep in office a man who is literally siding with the Nazis of 2024.  Biden's base pictured here:

"Godwin’s Law says that “As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1.” But when it comes to Hamas, its similarities with Nazis are unavoidable. Like the Nazis, Hamas is quite literally violently antisemitic, anti-Christian, anti-American, anti-homosexual, sadistic, and genocidal. Yet these are the people with whom the Biden administration is siding because that’s what his hardcore base supports, especially in Michigan and Wisconsin.

"Jews have continuously occupied the same land in the Middle East for 4,000 years. Between the time that the Roman conquest defeated the Kingdom of Judah in 70 A.D. and the founding of the renewed Nation of Israel in 1948, there was no nation on that land. Instead, over the centuries, it was a colony of Rome, the Umayyads, the Abassids, the Crusaders, the Ayyubids, the Mamluks, the Ottomans, and the British. But the Jews were always there." . . .


. . ."
However, to placate his base, Biden is doing everything he can to save Hamas so that it can fight again. That’s why, on Sunday, Biden sent out Kamala Harris, the great military strategist who has “studied the maps,” to threaten Israel should Israel win the war against the Nazis on her border:" . . .  Biden's base pictured at top.

. . ."One suspects that Israeli military officials and office-holders might have studied these maps, and these broader issues, slightly more thoroughly than Kamala Harris. And although Americans were slaughtered on October 7th, with several still being held hostage by the terrorists, Israel's leaders have much more at stake in Gaza than Harris does. They have a massive body count to avenge, and a promised genocide to prevent. They have more than just skin in the game; this is existential for them. But Harris and friends are tut-tutting about Israel doing what it must, with many Western journalists seemingly focused on whether there will be "consequences" if Israel pursues its core interests. Hamas being allowed to survive, after what it has done and despite what its leaders vow to keep doing, is treated as an afterthought. Eradicating Hamas is actually the issue, and Israel's entirely righteous and necessary objective." . . .
. . .If some Gazans are starving, despite Israeli efforts, that is 100 percent the explicit and unambiguous fault of Hamas.  Letting them off the hook, and putting the impetus on Israel -- as usual -- is disgraceful.  It's worth noting that AOC's 'Squad' sister, anti-Semitic terror apologist Rashida Tlaib, is even opposing a temporary ceasefire that would allow for humanitarian assistance.  That's how committed she is to Hamas' continued existence." 


Douglas Murray vs. anti-Israel "journalist"

 Douglas Murray makes mincemeat out of journalist who thinks Israel is occupying Gaza (barenakedislam.com)

This ignorant Israel-hating woman hasn’t got a clue. Kudos to Douglas Murray for putting this rude woman in her place because of her spreading the same wilful ignorance permeating school campuses and political parties. The Tunnel Dweller


One commenter asks: "She exemplifies the left in that she refuses to answer questions when asked. She completely ignored the fact that not even Egypt would permit Gazan Arabs to enter and that Israel provides them medical care.

"I would like to ask Douglas where did Hamas obtain the material and equipment to create the six to seven hundred kilometers of tunneling and the infrastructure in which to operate it."

California Synagogue Leases Space to Mosque to ‘Ease Tensions,’ But a Lovefest Doesn't Exactly Break Out

 Robert Spencer – PJ Media

"The Islamic Society of West Valley, in contrast, was not so eager to abandon its own beliefs in order to make friends with the Jews. “Soon after the Islamic Society began using Hamakom’s facility, it hosted anti-Israel activist Hussam Ayloush, who said last year that Israel did not have a right to defend itself following the Oct. 7 attack and compared Israel to Nazi Germany.' ”

"Hamakom synagogue, a conservative congregation in Los Angeles, has just gotten a bracing introduction to the reality beneath the surface of efforts at “outreach” and “dialogue”: it leased its facility to a local Muslim group, only to have it host a viciously anti-Israel speaker who has refused to condemn Hamas and likened the Jewish state to National Socialist Germany. Yeah, tensions are really eased now. 

"The Washington Free Beacon reported Monday that Hamakom “axed its leadership and is struggling to retain members” after leasing its main facility to the Islamic Society of West Valley. The synagogue “entered into an agreement with the Islamic Society that allowed it to take over the synagogue’s main campus, pushing Jewish members onto a smaller satellite branch. "

"The synagogue leadership did this in the hopes it would build bridges with Muslims in Los Angeles: “In this time of rising anti-Semitism and Islamophobia,” synagogue leaders told the congregation, “it is incumbent upon us to reach out to strengthen the bonds between religious communities in our neighborhood, recognizing there is more that unites us than divides us.” Almost immediately, however, their starry-eyed hopes of bridging the gap of centuries of hatred and suspicion, and showing the Muslims of Los Angeles that Jews weren’t really “the most vehement of mankind in hostility to those who believe,” as the Qur’an says (5:82), were dashed. 

"Yet Hamakon gave its all to this effort. The synagogue leadership allowed the Muslims to use the building every night, while the Jews themselves “would only be allowed to worship in two rooms from 8 p.m. to midnight. Evening programs and Friday night Sabbath services were also relocated to a smaller site also owned by the synagogue.” Even worse, “in anticipation of the lease’s commencement, the synagogue’s leadership covered up pictures of Israeli hostages captured by Hamas during its Oct. 7 attack on Israel.” 

"Yes, you read that right. It wasn’t the mosque that covered up the pictures of Israeli hostages. It was the synagogue leadership, showing that they were so avid to build bridges with the Muslim group that they were willing to abandon their own principles and basic standards of human decency to do so." . . . 

So on the one side, we have a coarse and brutish propagandist spreading blood libels against the Jews. On the other side, we have leftist Jews so anxious to be friendly to Muslims that they give over their premises to a mosque that brings in this same hateful propagandist to speak. What’s wrong with this picture? If leftist Jews in Los Angeles had listened to what Pamela Geller was trying to tell them in 2012, they wouldn’t be in this fix.

They all laughed - Don Surber

"That’s right. You can bonk someone in the head and walk out of jail without posting a bond but for Trump, the rules are different. Rather than stand up to this injustice, the American media embraces it and applauds his loss of liberty."


"I have underestimated the lack of intelligence of the media whores in DC, perhaps because in my brief 35 years in newspapering I worked with publishers and editors who could walk and chew gum at the same time. But Byron York’s reporting on a DC shindig showed just how tiny the brains are in the media.

"York reported, “Democrats hope a guilty verdict in a criminal trial — any trial will do — will peel away voters who say they support Trump now but would not support him if he were a convicted felon. We’ll see.

“ 'But the lawfare campaign is already having another effect on Trump. It has put the former president under severe financial stress in two ways. The first is the tens of millions of dollars in legal fees Trump has already spent defending himself against the onslaught of criminal charges and lawsuits. The other is the crippling financial penalty, $454 million, in the lawsuit brought by the elected Democrat attorney general of New York, Letitia James.”

"On top of that, there is that $83 million judgment against him for denying he raped E. Jean Carroll, a fabulist funded by a bulky billionaire to bleed Trump dry with these unprecedented and unconstitutional civil suits.

"Forbes reported, “Billionaire LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman funded E. Jean Carroll’s prosecution alleging former President Donald Trump raped her, through a nonprofit group the major Democratic donor backs; now that a jury has found Trump guilty of sexual abuse, some have questioned Hoffman’s role in the process—here’s what it looked like.”'

"The details were interesting and revealed that Hoffman also funded other similar lawsuits." . . .

John F. Kennedy Would Not Recognize Today`s Democratic Party

 Religio-Political Talk (RPT)  "What Dennis Prager was asking James Swanson (audio below) was “what about the newer understanding that JFK was conservative?” (Prager has always echoed Reagan’s statement: “I didn’t leave the Democratic Party. The party left me.” This fresh look at history supports this long held belief  by many ex-Dems.) When historians go through Kennedy’s speeches and candid confessions, as well as policy, they are more-and-more coming to the following conclusion:


"A short excerpt from an article by Ira Stoll, in the October 2013 edition of THE AMERICAN SPECTATOR, . . .

…."WHAT I TAKE to be the truth about John Kennedy and his conservatism has, in the years since he died, been forgotten. This is partly because of the work of liberal historians and partly due to changes in America’s major political parties. Yet calling Kennedy a conservative was hardly controversial during his lifetime. “A Kennedy Runs for Congress: The Boston-bred scion of a former ambassador is a fighting-Irish conservative,” Look headlined an article in June 1946. “When young, wealthy and conservative John Fitzgerald Kennedy announced for Congress, many people wondered why,” the story began. “Hardly a liberal even by his own standards, Kennedy is mainly concerned by what appears to him as the coming struggle between collectivism and capitalism. In speech after speech he charges his audience ‘to battle for the old ideas with the same enthusiasm that people have for new ideas.’”

"The Chicago Tribune reported Kennedy’s election to the U.S. Senate in 1952 by describing him as a “fighting conservative.” In a June 1953 Saturday Evening Post article, Kennedy said, “I’d be very happy to tell them I’m not a liberal at all,” adding, speaking of liberals, “I’m not comfortable with those people.” In 1958, Eleanor Roosevelt was asked in a television interview what she would do if she had to choose between a “conservative Democrat like Kennedy and a liberal Republican [like] Rockefeller.” She said she would do all she possibly could to make sure the Democrats did not nominate a candidate like Kennedy." . . .

Nathan Wade’s Testimony Found False, What About Willis’?

  Religio-Political Talk (RPT)

“What I don’t understand is how the court can find that she [Willis] did act improperly in her public statements. He shreds the testimonies, he strongly indicates that he did not believe Mr. Wade, but then he ignores the fact that they testified largely in tandem. Willis adopted his testimony, she supported his testimony. So, if he was false, she was false. And it’s very hard to separate these conjoined twins. It takes quite a surgeon.” — Jonathan Turley

 Turley Says Court 'Ignored' A Key Fact About The Fani Willis Case (rumble.com)

“It really is an astonishing opinion in its disconnect because he clearly did not believe Nathan Wade and many people believe Nathan Wade committed perjury,” Turley said. “But these two essentially testified in tandem – she [Fani Willis] adopted his testimony. So if he lied, then she pretty much lied the same way. They both maintained that the relationship began after he was hired and really held a sort of unified front. I think that what the judge was trying to do in giving these two options to Wade was to gently give a third option to Willis. And that option is to remove yourself, take the ethical course. And I think that’s very clear in his opinion. Nobody reading this opinion with these damning findings could possibly believe that Willis can continue to be part of this case,” Turley continued. “She’s prosecuting people for the underlying conduct she’s accused of committing with Nathan Wade – false statements given to a court, false filings that have been submitted. How could she possibly continue that without damaging her case? But the problem is that she’s had this opportunity to take the high road, repeatedly. She clearly has never wanted to do that, and this will probably be her last chance to do the right thing and remove herself.” — Jonathan Turley, via DAILY CALLER" . . .

Joe Biden’s winners (Including millions of smash-and-grab shoplifters)

Who’s not listed in the cast of winners under Joe Biden is the American people.  They are “the losers” in Joe Biden’s America. 


  Earick Ward - American Thinker   "Joe Biden has been a terrible president — the worst in American history — but that does not mean that his term hasn’t had its share of winners.

"While the vast majority of Americans have suffered under Joe Biden, some segments of American society have benefitted.

Illegal Aliens

"The top of Biden’s winner list has to be illegal aliens.  As the saying goes, what you promote, you get more of.  Joe Biden and his surrogates have actively promoted the arrival of more than 7–8 million new illegal aliens since his inauguration, when he overrode Donald Trump–era policies and instituted new executive orders, opening the floodgates.  Illegal aliens are being housed, fed, given stored value cards, free medical treatment, and “the promise” of amnesty.  A peripheral beneficiary of our open border is the Mexican cartels, who are making bank, trafficking drugs, adults, and children.

NGOs and other Leftist Activist Groups

"On the heels of illegal aliens are non-governmental organizations and other leftist activist groups, who are grifting the government to the tune of billions of dollars per year.  Woke Catholic charities, woke Protestant charities, woke attorneys, woke hotel chains and housing authorities all benefit from the continuation of the border surge.  Leftist homeless groups benefit from the continuation of, not the elimination of, homelessness.  If they “solved” the homeless crisis, they would be out of work.

Sanctuary Cities/States

"Not the “people” in said sanctuary cities and states, but leftist Democrats, who benefit from the increased number of congressional seats afforded them, by the increased counts in the Census, soon to be the right to vote.

The Enduring Wholesomeness of 'Little House on the Prairie': 50 Years Later

PJ Media
"I recently saw that a producer is trying to “reboot” the series. I shudder to think what a 21st-century version of “Little House on the Prairie” would look like. The wokes would ruin it."  Bonchie 
No farmer or rancher would have this for a dog. TD

"Next week — March 30, to be exact—brings one of those milestones that makes me feel ancient. That date marks the 50th anniversary of the debut of one of the most enduring series in television history: “Little House on the Prairie.”

"I don’t remember that night since I was a toddler when the TV movie that served as a pilot for the show aired, but my family watched the show without fail. My siblings and I grew up with the Ingalls family, and my mom made sure that my nieces were familiar with the show, too. With nine seasons and over 200 episodes, the show tackled a host of issues, usually with happy endings.

"The show is notably different from the books, which I’ve also read. They diverge enough that I almost think of them as separate entities in my mind. “Little House on the Prairie” doesn’t suffer from the political incorrectness that made Laura Ingalls Wilder a victim of cancel culture. The characterizations on the show take on a life of their own, and the show concentrates on one era, whereas the books are more expansive.

"Looking back at “Little House on the Prairie” today, the show holds up remarkably well. Sure, the scenarios, the acting, and some of the music are over the top, but other than some of the hairstyles, it doesn’t come across as dated to the ‘70s and early ‘80s. The historical subject matter stands up as well, even if some of the minorities on the show benefit from a post-civil-right-era treatment. Above all, it’s still entertaining." . . .

Desperate Biden Falsely Claims Trump ‘Told Us to Inject Ourselves With Bleach’

  PJ Media

"So, where did the fake news that Trump told people to inject themselves with bleach come from? Later,  during the same briefing, a reporter asked the acting undersecretary of science and technology for the Department of Homeland Security, Bill Bryan, “The president mentioned the idea of cleaners, like bleach and isopropyl alcohol you mentioned. There’s no scenario that could be injected into a person, is there?”

"Joe Biden has released a new campaign video with Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi. Though the video claims to have been recorded live, it hilariously features an insane number of jump cuts, suggesting it actually took multiple takes throughout the recording process to get Biden's performance on the mark.

"But, that aside, the video made it quite clear that Joe Biden is so desperate, that he's trying to rehash long-debunked accusations against Trump in the hopes of trying to turn his faltering campaign around.

" 'This is the guy who doesn't care about science and reason," Biden claims in the video. "Remember, during the pandemic, Donald Trump told us to inject ourselves with bleach. He said there's nothing to worry about if you do that."

"The big problem with this claim is that it never actually happened. 

"The false claim originated from the following exchange during the White House Coronavirus Task Force Briefing in April of 2020. During the briefing, potential COVID-19 treatments were discussed, including UV light treatments, and Trump said, “And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning? Because you see, it gets in the lungs, and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it would be interesting to check that. So, that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with. But it sounds — it sounds interesting to me.”

"It's obvious here that he wasn't advocating for ingesting or injecting bleach; rather, he was exploring the feasibility of using disinfectants internally. He emphasized the necessity of medical supervision, cautioning against any attempt to replicate such measures independently.

“It wouldn’t be through injection," Trump responded. "We’re talking about through almost a cleaning, sterilization of an area. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t work. But it certainly has a big effect if it’s on a stationary object.”

Natasha Bertrand and Trump misinformation

 


CNN Draws Major Backlash for Giving Promotion to Notorious 'Russian Collusion Hoaxer' (msn.com)  "Where do you go after peddling dual lies in the establishment media -- the Donald Trump Russiagate hoax and the fiction that Hunter Biden's toxic laptop was Kremlin disinfo?

"To the top, of course. At least at CNN.

"On Monday, the network you probably only end up watching when your flight is delayed for a few hours announced that Natasha Bertrand, a former reporter at Politico whose stances on the Steele dossier and Hunter's laptop remain controversial blunders that she hasn't disowned to any significant extent, was being promoted to correspondent.

"In her new role, the network said in a media release, Bertrand will be "covering national security, the news organization announced today. She is based in Washington, DC and will continue to focus on national security and politics across CNN’s platforms.". . .

 “The count is growing higher and higher of porn actresses,” Slate’s editor at the time, Jacob Weisberg, said on MSNBC, adding, “The whole picture starts to be more plausible, the picture that’s painted in the dossier.” Natasha Bertrand, who was then a staff writer at The Atlantic, chimed in, “It makes it much more plausible that Trump did go to Russia and he did have these kinds of sexual escapades with prostitutes.”

The dossier’s credibility suffered a grievous blow in December 2019, when an investigation by the Department of Justice’s inspector general found that F.B.I. investigations “raised doubts about the reliability of some of Steele’s reports.”
