Once 'joyful', Harris now goes the full McCarthyite: Victor Davis Hanson

Well, Democrats had to make Kamala's laugh a feature instead of a bug. TD

  Jewish World Review

 . . ."Fascists seek to control and weaponize the media. So, Facebook and Twitter both conspired with the FBI to censure news accounts favorable to Trump. The major newspapers, social media corporations, television networks, and public broadcasting systematically and continually attacked Trump, censured his supporters, and fused with his opponents.  Why then the charges of Trump the fascist and Hitler reincarnation?" 

"In the last two weeks, Vice President Kamala Harris has been trying to revive her stagnant campaign by smearing Trump as being Hitlerian and a fascist. She claims Trump is planning to put his enemies in encampments.

"Yet in the modern era, it was not Trump who put large numbers of U.S. residents and citizens into "relocation camps," but liberal Democrat President Franklin D. Roosevelt who sent Japanese-American citizens and residents into them.

"If Harris refers to Trump's supposed fascist policies during his prior four-year tenure, there is no such evidence.

"Nonetheless, the once "joyful" Harris is ending her campaign by trafficking in lies and smears reminiscent of the Joe McCarthy era.

"Recall that fascists hijack law enforcement and the military to suspend constitutional rights and punish enemies. But Trump did neither.

"Instead, in 2016, a corrupt FBI went after Trump himself during the Obama administration with the bogus Steele dossier.

"The FBI, which in 2016 had hired the faker Steele, in 2020, fused with social media to suppress accurate news reporting of the embarrassing Hunter Biden laptop scandal.

"A number of FBI directors and intelligence officials — John Brennan, James Clapper, James Comey, Andrew McCabe — who openly sought to destroy Trump had a long history of either lying or feigning amnesia under oath.

"Fascists try to warp the legal system. But Trump's own Justice Department selected an independent special counsel to investigate the invented Russian collusion accusations against him.

"In vast contrast, the Biden Justice Department coordinated with Georgia prosecutors Fani Willis and Nathan Wade, special counsel Jack Smith, Manhattan prosecutor Alvin Bragg, and New York Attorney General Letitia James to prosecute Trump, bankrupt him, and keep off the campaign trail.

"Fascists use their governments to destroy their enemies." . . .

Report: White House Officials Pressured Stenographers to Edit Biden’s ‘Garbage’ Smear

Wendell Husebo

“There’s no way to spin it: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris don’t just hate President Trump, they despise the tens of millions of Americans who support him. Kamala does not deserve four more years,” Karoline Leavitt, Trump campaign national spokesperson, said Tuesday

"White House press officials reportedly pressured stenographers to cover up President Joe Biden’s “garbage” smear by editing the transcript to alter its meaning.

"The coverup was “a breach of protocol and spoilation of transcript integrity between the Stenography and Press Offices,” according to a stenographer supervisor’s email obtained by the Associated Press (AP).

“ 'The only garbage I see floating out there is his [Trump] supporters,” Biden said Tuesday.

"The White House stenographers added an apostrophe to “supporters” and an em-dash to alter the meaning of Biden’s statement.

"White House press officials pressured the stenographers, charged with preparing accurate transcripts for National Archives’s preservation, but the stenographers drew objections to the changes, according to two U.S. government officials and an internal email obtained by the Association Press.
“ 'This would be called lying in a public document,” Clay Travis, founder of Outkick, reacted on X. Greg Price said the edit is a “Direct violation of the Presidential Records Act.”
"The AP reported: 
The change was made after the press office “conferred with the president,” according to an internal email from the head of the stenographers’ office that was obtained by The AP. The authenticity of the email was confirmed by two government officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal matters.
According to the email, the press office had asked the stenographers to quickly produce a transcript of the call amid the firestorm. Biden himself took to social media to say that he he was not calling all Trump supporters garbage and that he was referring specifically to the “hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by Trump’s supporter at his Madison Square Garden rally.” . .  .
Democrats "speak"; Republicans "spew". TD      Biden Calling Trump Supporters ‘Garbage’ Says All You Need To Know About Today’s Dem Party; Issues & Insights  . . ."As the news site Just the News noted, “the Democrats’ penchant for smearing MAGA supporters and other dissident groups has become a central part of their messaging as Trump appears poised to make a return to the White House.”

"With two assassination attempts made on his life and his fervent MAGA followers vilified daily by the so-called mainstream media, Trump’s response to Biden’s word-belch perhaps put it best: “You can’t lead America if you don’t love Americans,” he told supporters at a North Carolina rally Wednesday. “And you can’t be president if you hate the American people.”

"Next Tuesday, Democrats might find out just how true those words are."

Why You Should Always Double-Check Your Ballot: Kentucky Voting Machine Showed Trump Vote As Vote For Harris

The Federalist

  "Republican National Committee Co-Chair Lara Trump encouraged voters to report any issues to ProtectTheVote.com.

Try to ignore the dramatic music.

“ 'I tried to pick Trump 10 times, it would not work.”

"That’s part of the caption for a now-viral video on X showing a voter trying to cast a vote for former President Donald Trump. After several attempts, the video shows, the electronic voting machine captured a vote — but it was for Vice President Kamala Harris. Although officials have looked into the issue, such glitches are a reminder to voters to always double (if not triple) check ballots when casting votes.

"The user, whose screen name is “it’s me,” said in the post that the incident took place in Kentucky. She claimed she “went to the head of the election board and will send this video to KY attorney general.”

"Kentucky Attorney General Michael Adams said in a post on X responding to a report on the incident that “there is no ‘vote-switching’. The voter confirmed that her ballot was correctly printed as marked for the candidate of her choice. Get your voting information from legitimate sources, not TikTok or cat turds.”

"Laurel County Clerk Tony Brown later confirmed in a post on Facebook that when the state’s Attorney General’s office came to “check the device,” the incident eventually occurred again.

“ 'The Attorney General’s office has been to the vote center to check the device that has been shown across social media today. In full disclosure, after several minutes of attempting to recreate the scenario, it did occur,” Brown said on Facebook. “This was accomplished by hitting some area in between the boxes. After that we tried for several minutes to do it again and could not.”

"Brown also posted a video of what he said was “the same machine used by the voter” in which viewers “can see us going back and forth through the names with no issues.” He said there were no other reports of issues with the machine." . . .

‘This is CNN’

"Anderson Blooper: Thank you all for your observations. (Removes his eyeglasses, battling to hold his emotions in check, and looks up at the clock). I am going to read a wire service report. President Abraham Lincoln died at 7:22 a.m. Eastern Standard Time."


"The mainstream media mangle the truth in their collective effort to push America toward a communist-styled government. Imagine the reporting if today’s one-sided leftist media had been around in April 1865.

"The Civil War, with approximately 600,000 casualties, ended on April 9 with a decisive Union victory. On April 15, a war-weary President and Mrs. Lincoln, along with some guests, went to the Ford Theater to see My American Cousin and then…

"Announcer: This is Counterfeit News Network. We interrupt our regular programming with a bulletin. We go to our CNN studio in Washington, D.C.

"Anderson Blooper: Ladies and gentlemen, we have just learned that President Lincoln was shot. We take you outside Ford Theater, where the Secret Service is holding a news conference.

"Secret Service Spokesman: …the hallway leading to the presidential box at Ford Theater was sloped, which is why we didn’t have anyone standing guard outside…

"Anderson Blooper: We’ve been informed that the injured president, and we do not yet know how serious his injuries are, was transported across the street to the Petersen boarding house. Let’s first go to Dana Rash inside the theater." . . .Full article here.

Coulter: TAKE 2 MILLION IMMIGRANTS AND CALL ME IN THE MORNING

Ann Coulter  

. . ."But also, since 1970, we have been deliberately bringing in the poorest, least-educated people in the world. They don’t come close to making enough money to pay for the massive amounts of services they consume. Every additional schoolbook, teacher, bus driver, janitor, hospital bed, catheter, liver transplant — that’s on you, taxpayer. (If Kamala Harris is elected, you’ll also be on the hook for illegals’ transgender operations, too.)"

"At this point, the only thing we know for sure about the presidential election is that if Donald Trump loses, it will be because of his personality, and if he wins, it will be because of immigration.

"I know this because the media are publishing almost as many stories about the wonders of immigration as they are about Trump being Adolf Hitler. The New York Times, The Washington Post, NPR, MSNBC, the lickspittles at Cato — you can’t open your computer or turn on the TV without encountering a tidal wave of lies about our beloved immigrants. (Former Washington Post readers, you’ll just have to take my word for it.)

"In the Times, Linda Qiu produced a whopper of an article purporting to refute Trump’s malicious nonsense about immigration, and as an immigrant herself, must be completely unbiased, so I’ll use that as my template.

"Qiu begins with the silly claim that Trump and his vice-presidential nominee, JD Vance, blame everything on illegal immigrants. (Her article is already hanging in my Museum of Straw Man Arguments.)

" 'Be it gun violence, high housing costs, long wait times at emergency rooms or an impending depletion of disaster relief funding,” she writes, “Mr. Trump and Senator JD Vance have offered the same diagnosis: All are because of unauthorized immigration.”

"Well, maybe not exclusively because of illegal immigration. (Only RACISM can be blamed for everything.) But while immigration is not 100% responsible for these problems, it’s hard to think of anything that’s been made easier to solve by dumping millions of uneducated, poverty-stricken, non-English-speaking people on our country.

"Nevertheless, Qiu claims Trump and Vance are not merely overstating the case, but completely wrong. You see, she has “experts.”

"One “expert,” Ieva Jusionyte, a professor at Brown University, said, “Vance is not correct that there is an influx of illegal guns from Mexico … It is simply not a thing.”

"I totally trust someone who says, “it is simply not a thing.” If she threw in “not on my bingo card” or “saying the quiet part out loud,” she’d have sold me right there.

"Except Jusionyte’s claim is absurd. Where do liberals imagine criminals get their guns? According to the Department of Justice, the guns used in crimes mainly come from illegal sources, to wit: people involved in the sale of illegal drugs, markets for stolen goods and other criminals or criminal enterprises. (How about the much-maligned gun shows? A grand total of about 0.8% of guns used in crimes come from gun shows. Ninety percent of guns used in crimes do not come from any retail source at all.)" . . .

Two more from the Babylon Bee (Parodies)

Biden Fitted With Muzzle So He Can't Bite Any More Babies  . . ."The White House has been running damage control in the wake of the incident. Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed the incident was "taken out of context" and that the president has "been very clear about how much he loves babies." This statement prompted Fox News reporter Peter Doocy to say, "How much he loves eating them, you mean." Jean-Pierre responded by calling the statement out of line and unprofessional.

""This is just a misunderstanding and, frankly, I think it's being blown out of proportion. It's MAGA gaslighting and it's irresponsible," the press secretary said. "But to assuage the concerns of the public, and to prove he is a president for all Americans, the president has agreed to wear a muzzle." . . . 


. . ." 'Mr. Walz is always trying to give us tampons," local 13-year-old boy Evan Gessel commented. "‘I have no idea what to do with them, I have like 300 in my closet at home but he keeps giving them to me…not just on Halloween"
"Other kids mentioned wanting to avoid the Walz's house on their trick-or-treating route but feeling awkwardly compelled to stop by and take a tampon.
" 'Mr. Walz followed me and my brother down the street with a giant box of pads and a fistful of tampons," 12-year-old Macey Ferguson said. "We told him we were ok but he insisted we take them and then told us he was an ally or something like that-I was so confused."
"At publishing time, Walz could be seen throwing tampons at the kids egging his house."

Are You Garbage? Know The Signs

 From the Parodigal Child, the Babylon Bee  

 . . ."Do you match up with any of these signs? Get out of here, garbage person."


"If you're a regular American who heard President Joe Biden refer to half the country as "garbage" the other day, you may be wondering to yourself: "Am I a garbage?"

"Well, wonder no longer, for we at the Babylon Bee have consulted the experts to determine the clearest signs of whether or not someone is garbage. Do you fit any of them? Take a look:

  1. You've had fewer than 11 Covid booster shots: Wow. You're trash.

  2. You've never burned an American flag: Do you even love democracy, trash-boy?

  3. You do this weird thing where you pay for merchandise before leaving the store with it: What sort of festering bag of refuse does this?

  4. You don't try to load a shotgun through its butt during a photo-op: You disgusting, rancid load of slop.

  5. Your wife doesn't have a boyfriend: Gross. How old-fashioned of you.

  6. Your husband doesn't have a boyfriend: Classic garbage move.

  7. You came to life when radioactive ooze was dumped on an old bag of garbage and you crawled your way out of the dumpster and are now determined to kill whoever made you a terrible reality: Wow. Literal garbage.

Why does the political establishment hate Trump?

 Richard Thornton 

" . . .The Democrat vision of how the country should operate and of America’s place in the world lies in tatters, a catastrophic failure.  But President Trump’s vision is not yet in place, which is why the struggle is so intense.  Trump is shaping a new political, economic, and cultural order, which is why the Democrat establishment must oppose him at every turn."

"The short answer to that question comes from George Orwell: “Who controls the past controls the future.  Who controls the present controls the past.”  Packed into that pithy aphorism is the explanation of the bitter struggle centering on the person of President Donald J. Trump.

"The dirty little secret of American history is that a largely left-leaning establishment has dominated our politics since 1932 and thereby framed our understanding of the past and goals for the future.  Only two Republican presidents have held temporary majorities in both houses of Congress since then: Dwight D. Eisenhower and George W. Bush.  Neither made a dent in the establishment’s control.  Indeed, during the past thirty-eight years, since the political establishment kicked President Reagan upstairs and out of power in the Iran contra scandal, the political establishment has taken the country farther to the left than ever before, centered on the policies of détente with Moscow, Beijing, and Iran.  In the process of attempting to create a new world order, the Democrat establishment left behind and totally alienated the American people.

"The beneficiary of this widespread alienation was President Donald J. Trump and Republicans, who in 2016 swept to power across the country with strong majorities in both houses of Congress and a mandate from the people to reverse course.  Trump led the way, attacking the Democrat establishment’s narrative of the past and setting forth a new vision of the future.  “Make America Great Again” is more than a campaign slogan; it is a repudiation of the past failure of the political establishment.

"It did not last.

"Trump lost control of the House in 2018 and fell victim to a Democrat counter-revolution in 2020.  In less than four years, demonstrating a level of incompetence unknown in modern history, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris sank the nation into a quagmire of debt, opened the borders to an invasion of illegal aliens, condoned the virtual collapse of social order, and generated the highest inflation since Jimmy Carter." . . . 

Chuck Schumer labeled ‘traitor’ after damning report reveals he quietly advised Columbia leaders to ignore criticism of campus antisemitism

 NY Post 

"The Republican-led House Education panel also found that Ivy League university leaders made “an intentional decision” to cut language condemning Hamas’ massacre of more than 1,200 civilians as “violence” and references to their Israeli hostages from any official statements following the brutal attack."    


"Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is being slammed as a traitor following damning claims he instructed administrators at Columbia University to dismiss any criticism of the school’s handling of blatant violence and antisemitism on campus in the wake of Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, massacre in Israel.

"The GOP-lead House Education and Workforce Committee, in a 325-page report, contended the New York Democrat advised then-university president Minouche Shafik that the school would be spared any scrutiny by Democrats, explaining that the elite university’s “political problems are really only among Republicans.”

"His staff then encouraged Columbia administrators that the “best strategy is to keep heads down,” according to the report.

“ 'The self-proclaimed protector of the Jewish people. Chuckey Schumer is nothing but a kapo traitor. He should be ashamed of himself,” said former Brooklyn state Assemblyman Dov Hikind, a Democrat-turned-Republican who heads the group Americans Against Antisemitism." . . .

. . .“He is a traitor to America. He is a traitor to the Jewish people. Shame on him! This is what the Democratic Party has become.” . . .

One more conspicuous reason to not only elect Donald Trump, but to ensure we have a Republican Congress by a strong majority. TD

Ladies, don't you know the Democrat Party owns you?

David Strom; Hot Air 

 "But it is symbolic of how the Democratic Party has assumed the support of people because it thinks it owns people of various demographics. They treat everybody as a member of an identity group with obligations to obey, not as individuals with free minds and free consciences." 


. . ."The Democrats' final argument is that women must vote for Kamala Harris because MAGA supporters are weak, stupid, deplorable, vectors of disease, Nazis, and garbage. They are attacking women, blacks, Hispanics, and gays who don't embrace the Democrat agenda and vote enthusiastically for a vapid and incompetent mixed-race woman just because she has the "right" identity. 

"I don't know whether this campaign pitch will move any votes to the Harris/Walz ticket, but it's pretty clear that a lot of women, blacks, Hispanics, and gays don't appreciate being lectured to by a bunch of freaks who prioritize killing babies, sterilizing children, opening the borders, and destroying the middle-class. 

"Mark Cuban's comments calling Trump's female supporters weak and stupid didn't sit well with a lot of people outside the Blue bubble, where this sentiment is universally held. Mark Cuban's comments would never have landed well, but he would likely have been extended some grace but for the fact that everybody already knows that the Democrats have contempt for anybody not in their club. 

"Cuban's comments were, let's be fair, intended as a slam on Trump, implying that he was not man enough to be around strong women. On its face this is clearly absurd; Trump's key advisors were as often as not women, and early in his administration, there was even a fair amount of reporting on this fact. Kellyanne Conway was one of the most influential people in America and widely credited for getting Trump across the finish line in 2016, and Trump relies on women in key positions more than most--without bowing to identity politics. 

"But Cuban was just trying to lie about Trump, not insult all Trump-supporting women." ...

BREAKING: Martin Luther King's niece, Alveda King, just responded to Mark Cuban saying all women who support Trump are dumb "Cuban's words are mean, sad, and misogynistic, and the left can't even define what a woman is." - @AlvedaCKing  Video 


 

Israel is the October surprise

Don Surber

"Arabs were so upset that five Muslim countries went on to sign the Abraham Accords which recognized the existence of Israel. Trump has earned the support of Jews and Muslims alike."


"The October surprise this year isn’t the media calling Trump Hitler and his supporters Nazis — or some chick in her 50s claiming Trump touched her 30 years ago. Been there. Done that. No longer care to react to the bald-faced lies anymore because I know most Americans see through it like the Invisible Man.

"The surprise isn’t even Trump riding shotgun in a garbage truck, although it was neat. CNN had to cut to it as breaking news.

"This year’s October surprise is in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. Israel’s victories over terrorism should help re-elect The Donald by a margin too big to rig.

"Victory? Reports show the terrorists are giving up as the IDF turns the tunnels of the rats into debris. Most of the damage is done by the missiles Hamas and Hezbollah stored beneath schools, hospitals and mosques.

"While Hamas refuses to give up the people its soldiers kidnapped in the October 7 Massacre, terrorist leaders are giving up.

"Amichai Chikli tweeted with video, “Hezbollah commanders surrendered to IDF forces in southern Lebanon; my advice to the remaining terrorists in Southern Lebanon is to leave the area.”

"Israel’s official Twitter account tweeted with video, “Remember this monster? Mohammad Abu Itiwi murdered and kidnapped dozens of young Israelis at the Nova Music Festival.

“He was a member of Hamas and a UNRWA employee. He was recently eliminated by the IDF.” . . .
