What's the latest on George Soros?


Mr. President, It's Time to Investigate George Soros for Funding Domestic Terrorism

"Mr. President, you've taken step one: declaring antifa a domestic terrorist organization. That was a brilliant move. Now it's time for step No. 2: Cut the head off the snake. We've got to aggressively cut off the funding for domestic terrorism. 

"Those who provide funding are terrorists themselves. Who is providing the funding? There are many suspects. Suspect No. 1 is globalist billionaire George Soros and his Open Society Foundations. It starts there. 

"Is Soros guilty? That's way above my pay grade. That's why we need a global investigation.

. . . "This is no amateur hour. This was planned, organized, coordinated and funded by our enemies. Thugs are being bussed and flown into big cities to lead riots. Their weapons have been delivered to protest sites ahead of time. And where did all the violent thugs and hooligans come from? The liberal district attorneys (in many cases, put in place by the funding of George Soros and others like him) let the felons out of prison. Someone will pay for all of this. It's time to take aggressive action and prove who will pay. " . . .

This was tried in 2017 and Soros is still in business as of 9/11/2020. TD

July 2020; DESPERATION SETS IN – Soros Breaks Personal Record After Pouring $50 M Into 2020 Election . . . "Such rhetoric from Soros-backed candidates has drawn criticism from the right. “While Democrats across the country sanctimoniously rail against the influence of dark money in politics, their party’s largest donors are bankrolling a massive web of liberal organizations to get them elected,” one GOP operative told the Washington Free Beacon earlier this month. “George Soros’s unprecedented spending further highlights just how dependent Democrats are on contributions from billionaires, despite their hypocritical rhetoric.”  "Soros is one of several Democratic megadonors who opened their checkbooks last month to provide large sums to outfits backing Biden and hammering Republicans. The Biden Victory Fund in particular has benefited from a windfall of cash. It pulled in a whopping $83 million thanks to the Democratic Party’s wealthiest donors, including Soros, who donated $500,000" . . .

2017 Petition: WE THE PEOPLE ASK THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO PROPOSE A NEW ADMINISTRATION POLICY: Declare George Soros a terrorist and seize all of his related organizations' assets under RICO and NDAA law

White House petition demanding action against liberal billionaire passes 215k signatures

A popular petition at the White House’s petition website calls for an official governmental framing of George Soros as a terrorist. It reads:. . . "Declare George Soros a terrorist and seize all of his related organizations’ assets under RICO and NDAA law

Whereas George Soros has willfully and on an ongoing basis attempted to destabilize and otherwise commit acts of sedition against the United States and its citizens, has created and funded dozens (and probably hundreds) of discrete organizations whose sole purpose is to apply Alinsky model terrorist tactics to facilitate the collapse of the systems and Constitutional government of the United State, and has developed unhealthy and undue influence over the entire Democrat Party and a large portion of the US Federal government, the DOJ should immediately declare George Soros and all of his organizations and staff members to be domestic terrorists, and have all of his personal an organizational wealth and assets seized under Civil Asset Forfeiture law.

"The petition was created on August 20 by “E.B.” It has yielded just over 59,000 e-signatures by the time of this article’s publication." . . .

50+ Questions No Reporter Dares Ask Joe Biden And His Campaign

 The Federalist

When Biden actually agrees to an interview or offers to take questions, most reporters simply ask leading, softball questions or merely state something for Biden to nod in agreement with.


"Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden doesn’t face the same scrutiny the media applies to President Trump. Whether it is due to gaffes, his inability to complete some sentences, or lack of knowledge on a subject, Biden has proven that interviews are not for him and the media has covered accordingly.

"When Biden actually agrees to an interview or offers to take questions, most reporters simply ask leading, softball questions or merely state something for Biden to nod in agreement with. Many times, Biden refuses to take questions altogether.

"If Biden ever decides to take questions from the press again, here’s a list of questions reporters wouldn’t dare ask him and his campaign for fear of risking their esteemed reputations as some of the loudest voices for Democrats.

Biden's Press Secretary Flips Out When if Asked Biden Uses a Teleprompter During Interviews

 Biden's Press Secretary Flips Out When if Asked Biden Uses a Teleprompter During Interviews


"For months now, it’s been clear that Joe Biden has been using a teleprompter for supposedly off-the-cuff campaign interviews and conversations.

"In April, when Bernie endorsed Joe Biden, they had a live stream conversation on Periscope where it was clear Biden was reading off a script.

Ducklo rather angrily refused multiple times after that to even answer the question, deflecting the question with campaign talking points, ultimately telling Baier that he wouldn’t allow the Trump campaign to “funnel their questions through Fox News and get me to respond to that.”

. . . 

 Karl Rove wipes the floor with Joe Biden using a timeline  "Karl Rove wrecked Joe Biden with his own lies about Trump’s response to the virus. Rove went through a timeline of what Biden and his top advisers were saying for months.

"Rove made three points. Biden said President Trump deliberately killed people who died from the virus, which is so over the top.

"Biden said he told everyone in January that if the President acted one week earlier, 36,000 lives would have been saved.  The Washington Post said that was completely inaccurate.

"The third point is Biden lying about the President creating the recession when it was clearly the result of the virus. Biden said it was because of the lockdown, which the doctors and scientists told the President to do. Didn’t Biden say over and over to listen to the scientists?" . . .


Amid evidence of scripted campaigning, questions about Biden mental stamina, acuity multiply  . . . "Biden also drew questions after Porsche Bennett, an activist with Black Lives Matter, went off-script at a Biden listening event at a church in Kenosha, Wisc. last week because she said she wanted to tell Biden "the truth" about race relations.

"I'm just going to be honest, Mr. Biden," Bennett said at the event, held in the town where police shot Jacob Blake, an African-American male. "I was told to go off this paper, but I can't. You need the truth, and I'm part of the truth."

The Biden campaign did not respond to request for comment from Just the News about either the AFL-CIO event or whether questions were vetted beforehand at the Kenosha event.  

9/11: 19 Years Later

 Images of 9/11: A Visual Remembrance


Can we ever recover that patriotic unity we had in the aftermath of that horrible day? Or has 2020 set us on a path to utter disintegration?   . . . "The elections of 2016 brought America’s divisions to a head. While Hillary Clinton railed at flyover state “deplorables”—expressing more empathy for illegal aliens and Islamic terrorists than for hard-working, law-abiding, middle Americans who’d been economically decimated by globalism—Donald Trump consecrated himself to the service of those deplorables. Yes, from the beginning of his administration, he sought to be a president for all the people. But it was far too late. 

"Too many Americans had been conditioned to respond to America-first rhetoric with a reflexive, implacable contempt. From the moment Trump won, the Democratic Party treated his victory as illegitimate and—with the help of a mainstream media that, since 9/11, increasingly had become an instrument of left-wing propaganda—sought to bring him down by unlawful means. At totally unfounded impeachment hearings, House Democrats hit a new low for naked and mendacious partisanship." . . .

Left-Wing Agitator Arrested for Starting Fire in Washington, Suspected of Starting Two Other Wildfires

 By Debra Heine   "A Washington man with a history of left-wing agitation was arrested Wednesday evening after he allegedly started a fire in the brush along a highway near Tacoma.

"Jeffrey Acord, 36, was charged for reckless burning in the second degree. He is now reportedly also a suspect in two other Washington wildfires.

"Acord appears to be a man of the left, according to his Facebook page." . . .


Previously in 2014, Acord was caught with a cache of weapons and arrested during the Ferguson Decision Protest. Officers found the man carrying a 7-inch knife in his backpack, a box of ammunition, an assault rifle, a shotgun, and a box full of illegal fireworks in his car, according to a KOMO news report. When officers contacted Acord, he admitted to carrying a loaded gun without a permit. His bail was set for $10,000. The following charges were levelled against him.

Chiefs and Texans Pre-Game ‘Moment of Unity’ Gets Booed by Fans

Maybe they are just sick of people's businesses and nights out with friends being destroyed by bullies screaming at them and looting stores in the name of BLM and "equality". TD

 
RedState   . . . "There were even allegedly shouts of “Trump 2020” and “just play.”

Folks on the left are already interpreting this as “racist.”

If I were to hazard a guess, people are just tired of politics in a football game, making the National Anthem not about the National Anthem. Most people want unity but they don’t view this as really trying to achieve unity. They’re tired of the endorsement of the BLM that isn’t really about unity but has been connected to rioting, assaults, death and disunity.

But there was something else that the moment seemed to have missed that perhaps should have been there, considering the timing and talking about “unity.” . . .

The kneeling players and the following are, for many of us, the face of BLM:


. . . "The footage, taken by a Washington Post reporter shows the woman, identified as Lauren Victor, being shouted at by white protesters after she refuses to raise her fist. "The group crowded Victor's table, with two female demonstrators leaning down and shouting in her face. " . . .

2020 & the Great Convergence II: The Coming Storm

2020 & the Great Convergence II: The Coming Storm


"The progressives will not accept a Trump victory in November, thus ending an unbroken history of 232 years of peaceful transfer of power in our nation dating to when the Constitution was adopted in 1788.  Seemingly the only question is how progressives will attempt to end Trump’s tenure if their vote-fraud-by-mail schemes fail to deliver victory?" . . .

"To put this in perspective, the progressive left is attempting to balkanize America.  They have condemned our history and seek to erase both our history and our culture as immoral. It is, in many ways, our version of the bloody Maoist Cultural Revolution.  The radical neo-Marxist progressives are intent on turning us into groups of warring tribes — and they are perilously close to succeeding.   As Victor Davis Hanson recently wrote:

We are living in the most racially polarized climate since the 1960s. America’s past, present, and future are in the process of being recalibrated entirely through the lens of one’s skin color. Columbus is reduced to nothing more than another racist white Italian sailor of a half-millennium past. Grant might as well have fought for slavery in the mind of today’s campus ignoramus. Apparently, the Antifa thug thinks he could just as easily have written the Gettysburg Address or sculpted a statue of Frederick Douglass.

The old liberal ideas of assimilation, integration, and intermarriage are being destroyed by the Left under the specious doctrines of cultural appropriation, or “acting white” or “how we look is who we are.”

A new fuzzy Jim Crow returns with racially segregated campus safe spaces and theme houses or the race-based reeducation and training sessions in the workplace—all predicated to stop racism! Somehow selecting strangers on the basis of their race to bully in a restaurant, or targeting old anonymous men and women to beat up in the street by their race, or singling out suburbanites by their race for racial taunts and profanity is redefined as reparatory justice or overdue payback—on the assumption that no one would dare say that the arson, looting, and rhetoric are descending into ever more hate-filled nihilism.

Our collective future of nationalized tribalism will become what always results when citizens identify by superficial appearance or shared religion. Just go to Lebanon, the Balkans, or Iraq to see what is in store first hand. . . .

"This is, collectively, the predicate to the coming storm.  On the ground, the armed wings of the Democrat Party, BLM and Antifa, have executed over 570 violent riots in 22 cities during the past several months, most tolerated, if not outright aided and abetted, by local and state officials, including DA’s funded by George Soros.  The left is stoking a race war even as they comprehensively attack the pillars of our society and Western Civilization as a whole.   Tyler O’Neil, at PJM, has written an insightful article likening this convergence and the violence in the streets to the similar events that occurred in the years prior to 1861 and the start of our first Civil War.  For his part, Weather Underground ex-terrorist Bill Ayers agrees. Just as a reminder, the Civil War, fought in the days of largely solid-shot cannon, single-shot rifles, cutlasses and bayonets — and in a country of only 31 million people — cost the lives of well over six hundred thousand Americans, more by far than any other conflict before or since.  All four horsemen of the apocalypse roam free anywhere there is civil war." . . .

. . . "Not only has the progressive left shown that they now hold the Constitution and laws in contempt, they are openly plotting that, not if but when they return to power, they will change the rules of the game such that they then remain in power for decades, if not permanently.  To name but a few of the plans they have quite seriously floated:

"In all of this, they have virtually lockstep support from a media that has jettisoned all journalistic ethics.  And should the neo-Marxist succeed in taking power, they would immediately begin extra-legal targeting of Trump’s constituency.  This election is for all the marbles." . . .  Keep reading...

"Americans need to understand that life has not been the same for 9/11 victims such as Matthew.  The victims want the memory to stay in the minds of Americans.  Yet the powers that be have another attitude.  Using the excuse of COVID-19 they decided to cancel the New York commemoration of September 11.  The memorial display featured twin beams of light to honor the fallen victims of the terror attacks.  Also canceled is the in-person ceremony at Ground Zero, where, among others, family members read the names of the 9/11 victims.  Was it done because among those honored were the 23 police officers of the New York Police Department (NYPD) and 37 police officers with the Port Authority who died that day attempting to save people they didn't know?  Because of the outcry, both ceremonies were reinstated, with some changes: there will be a recording of the names broadcast in order." . . .

9/11: Phone Calls from People Trapped in the Towers | 911 Documentary

Voices of 9-11    "The thing that bothers me the most about the deceased from the towers is that they all just kinda vanished without a trace. The force of the collapse vaporized most and there are many people who don’t have a single remain of them. It’s one thing to square yourself around the loss of a loved one; when you have a body to bury, look at and process through grief. It’s quite another when they left for work in an ordinary desk job on an ordinary day and literally disappeared, never to be see or heard of again. To this day it’s gotta be agony dealing with that."

Woodward and Bernstein’s take on anonymous sources reveals media incompetence

 

                                                                                   Tony Branco

"Woodstein"?

BPR  "Famed Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein (“Woodstein”) have recently weighed in on the use of anonymous sources in the reporting of President Trump’s alleged slurs of deceased soldiers.  While they use their iconic status to support the “truth” spoken by such unnamed witnesses, they unwittingly prove the profound incapability of modern journalism in its assumed role as the arbiter of truth. 

"There can be no better example of this than Woodstein’s discussion of their use of anonymous sources in Watergate.  These sources, Woodstein argues, were all proven truthful and brought down a sitting president.  Therefore, they contend, the present anonymous sources must be telling the truth.  But this jejune reasoning shows precisely how modern journalism got out over its skis in Watergate and continues to careen wildly downhill.  

"It is better to be lucky than good, and the reporters were fortunate that their witnesses in Watergate were speaking contrary to their own interests against a White House to which they were otherwise loyal.  And the reporters knew from the employment of the witnesses that they knew whereof they spoke.  To litigating lawyers, these factors are critical, that is, competence (basis for knowledge) and lack of motive to falsify.  But to journalists, such analysis is foreign, and when attempted, usually is performed amateurishly.  

"Moreover, all of Woodstein’s “anonymous” witnesses were not unknown to the FBI, on whom the reporters tailgated.  That they had been willing to speak to the FBI on formal interview was another indicium of truth. " . . .  More 

Dr. Fauci disputes alleged quotes from him in Bob Woodward ...  . . . "Woodward wants us to believe that Trump intentionally deceived the American people. He knew how serious the virus was, but wanted to hide its seriousness from the public to avoid a panic. That’s the line.

"Dr. Fauci, who ranks even higher than Woodward in the esteem of liberals I know, isn’t buying it. Fauci, who had the advantage of being there, says:

I didn’t get any sense that [Trump] was distorting anything. I mean in my discussions with him, they were always straightforward about the concerns that we had. We related that to him. And when he would go out, I’d hear him discussing the same sort of things. . . .


Laugh or Cry? Reporter's Defense of Atlantic's Anonymously-Sourced Anti-Trump Hit Piece Is Cringeworthy    . . . “So, please, by all means, tell me why a journalist would risk ruining their career and tarnishing their industry by making up a source,” she added.

"Well, I bet you can imagine the responses. Many are inappropriate and totally out of line, but what is this? Is the liberal media bubble that dense, or does Ms. Krauth simply not know about past events where the liberal media did invent stuff out of thin air? Maybe it’s a little of both, but Dan Rather peddling fake documents to smear George W. Bush’s Air National Guard service during the 2004 election is certainly a prime example. Why was Brian Williams yanked off of NBC’s Nightly News? Have we forgotten about Richard Jewell and the 1996 Summer Olympics? Oh, yes, and The New Republic dealing with Stephen Glass, one of the most successful fakers out there—some people cited these examples in the replies. The New York Times had to deal with the lies of former reporter Jayson Blair." . . .

Kamala Harris's embrace of Jacob Blake is the latest blow to #MeToo

Tiana Lowe, Commentary WriterWashington Examiner "It's been quite a week for Kamala Harris. In addition to promulgating anti-vaccination conspiracy theories about any coronavirus vaccine released during the Trump presidency, she met with the family of Jacob Blake, a man famous for fleeing from the police with his children in tow when he violated an existing restraining order after being charged with sexual assault.

"Blake has been famously lionized by the Left after being shot by the police when officers tried to arrest him as he reached in his car (telling them after the shooting that he had a knife, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel). Unlike the deaths of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd, both of whom did not pose a semblance of deadly threats to officers and were preventable, it's unclear if any feasible policy change would have prevented Blake's shooting. After all, Blake subverted multiple nonlethal attempts to subdue him, and by all available evidence, the police in question only resorted to shooting him when the officers had reasonable suspicion that he was reaching for a knife.

"Yet, it's not just the radical Left that has embraced Blake. Harris decided to wade into the active criminal investigation and take the side of a man charged with sexual assault and domestic violence.

" 'I mean, they're an incredible family," said Harris after meeting with his family while Blake called in. "And what they've endured, and they just do it with such dignity and grace. And you know, they're carrying the weight of a lot of voices on their shoulders."

"To recap, Blake broke into the home of his ex-girlfriend back in May, digitally raped her while one of their children slept in bed beside her, and stole her car keys and debit card prior to fleeing the scene of the crime. Wisconsin issued both an open warrant for Blake's arrest for third-degree sexual assault and a restraining order for the victim. Blake violated the restraining order, triggering the police encounter in question.

"So, one has to ask Harris, really? An incredible family? Not just the man who knowingly endangered his children by evading arrest for sexually assaulting their mother, but also his father, Jacob Blake Sr., who has spewed the sort of anti-Semitism that wouldn't be out of place on the Daily Stormer?" . . .

Some FB posts by Jacob Blake, the guy is planning to meet with. He’s a vicious antisemite. If the investigation finds that his son’s shooting was unjustified those responsible should be held accountable, but there is no excuse for Biden to meet with a Jew hater.


Clinically Deranged Adam Schiff Mounts His Dead Russia Horse Again

“We’ve received a whistleblower complaint alleging DHS suppressed intel reports on Russian election interference, altered intel to match false Trump claims and made false statements to Congress,” Schiff, D-Calif., tweeted Wednesday afternoon. “This puts our national security at risk.”

 

PJ Media  . . . "Yes, the polls have been tightening, but the Dems have been in a sort of flop-sweat panic mode since the Republican National Convention ended. There is, of course, the fact that every public appearance by der Bidengaffer since then has been hovering in the neighborhood of “unmitigated disaster.”

The Democrats do seem to be trying to get to their October surprises early this year. That reeks of desperation.

Speaking of reeking, California’s little impeachment pitbull Adam Schiff is back. Guess what, kids? He’s got another whistleblower!

Fox News:

The House Intelligence Committee received a whistleblower complaint claiming Trump administration officials at the White House and the Department of Homeland Security suppressed intelligence reports related to Russian election interference, Democratic Committee Chairman Adam Schiff said Wednesday.

In a statement, Schiff said former Intelligence and Analysis Acting Under Secretary Brian Murphy filed the whistleblower reprisal complaint on Tuesday with the DHS Office of Inspector General.
