To clarify: Lebron is ok with black people killing other black people... he's only upset when a white police officer stops the murder from happening.

Maxine Waters Gets Smoked by GOP Challenger in Viral Ad: 'Our District is in Ruins!'

 Neon Nettle

Republican congressional candidate Joe E. Collins III slams California Democrat

"GOP congressional candidate Joe E. Collins III, who is running for Waters' 43rd Congressional District, rolled out his new ad campaign over the weekend.

"In the ad, Collins, a Navy veteran who grew up in Waters’ south Los Angeles district, specifically targets his Democratic opponent.

"Collins highlights how Rep. Waters lives in a mansion outside of the 43rd Congressional District she represents while her constituents battle with poverty.

Speaking from outside Waters' $6 million mansion, Collins also detailed the many ways in which L.A. has declined in recent years.

"He reveals that the decline is thanks in large part to policies Waters has supported.

“Do you know where I am right now?” Collins says in a video depicting him walking up to Waters’ house."

Joe E. Collins III filmed his ad from outside Maxine Waters' $6 million mansion

“Maxine Waters’ $6 million mansion," he reveals as the camera pans around to show the lavish property.

"Yep, that’s right. Maxine does not live in her district, but I do.”"Do you know where I’m not right now? Maxine Waters’ district," he adds.

“I was born right here in South L.A., in a place Maxine refuses to live,” Collins continues." . . .

Biden & Maxine Waters' Pre-Verdict Comments Eyed as Grounds for Chauvin's Appeal

Neon Nettle

"Conviction not set in stone as defense likely to use remarks to overturn guilty verdict"

"[Andrew C.] McCarthy said that Waters, who represents California, went to Minnesota "to interfere in its judicial system" in violation of a curfew.

"He argued that "her remarks can only be interpreted as an incitement to violence" and that she "ought to be under investigation."

"Biden had also weighed in on the case before the verdict was announced, telling reporters that he was "praying that verdict is the right verdict" and that "I think it's overwhelming, in my view."

"The president claimed that he only said this because the jury was already sequestered, but McCarthy argued that this  "is no excuse" for making those remarks." . . .

The term “JoeBama” is not a meme… It is a REALITY.

The Last Refuge  "Those behind the scene are using the Biden administration as an extension of the third term of Barack Obama.  Same people; same policies; same agenda, and same exact goals.   As a consequence U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland is duplicating the exact same policy directives as former DOJ Attorney General Eric Holder.  The people in place are identical; the actions they take are identical; the purpose of their activity is identical.  The DOJ is politically weaponized to achieve ideological goals.

"The most recent example of the synergy happens today with AG Garland announcing a DOJ civil rights investigation into the Minneapolis police department.  Cut to the chase, the result of the investigation will be another municipal authority placed under a federal consent decree.  THAT will happen, the investigation to justify the consent decree is a farse.  This is JoeBama and the Chicago team replicating the same process.

"“Attorney General Merrick Garland today announced a new investigation into the Minneapolis Police Department and City of Minneapolis for possible pattern and practice unconstitutional actions. This investigation is not related to the already announced investigation into the murder of George Floyd, but is instead examining the entire department for continuous misconduct.' ”

America in the hands of the left

 ...The public is astonishingly misinformed as to the truth, thanks to the media.  Nor do the hundreds, even thousands of black-on-black murders that take place routinely in Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit, and other cities merit much media notice.  Black Lives Matter does not lift a finger or donate a dime to fighting black-on-black homicide....  Patricia McCarthy

Official BLM Account: Black Communities ‘Terrorized’ More Under Biden ‘Than They Had Been Under Trump’   "Via Daily Caller:

A Twitter post from the official Black Lives Matter account alleged that black communities are being “terrorized” at a greater rate than they were under former President Donald Trump.

In a post from Tuesday, Black Lives Matter alleged that black communities were better off under Trump than they are under President Joe Biden. The post demanded that Biden end the 1033 program—which allows the Department of Defense to offer excess equipment to local police authorities—by the end of his first 100 days in office.   Keep reading…

In Defense of Teenage Knife Fighting

Since when do we need the cops to intervene in the recreational stabbings of our youth?

Young skulls full of mush doing as they were programmed to do.

. . . "It’s hypocrisy, too. Who among us hasn’t come within a second or two of murdering someone else with a steak knife? My best friend in school, Bobby “The Blade” Simpson, used to throw shivs at the smaller kids in the music room. Did we need the authorities to step in when that happened? No, we did not. As MSNBC’s Joy Reid argued smartly on her show last night, pranks such as these were dealt with by our teachers — just as we all expected they would be. And if something went wrong? Well, that’s why we had substitutes.

"In all honesty, I worry that this sort of helicopter policing is making us weak. Back in my day, the people who survived a good stabbing came out stronger for it. I learned a lot of lessons from my time in the ring: self-reliance, how to overcome fear, the importance of agility, the basics of military field dressing. And, given the turnover, I also learned how to make new friends." . . .

My First Knife Fight? Leftists call knifings kid stuff in wake of Columbus police intervention

 

Kids will be kids

"The far left has been mouthing so many phony, untrue things about crime and punishment in the U.S. that some of its unhinged denizens can no longer recognize reality.

"That would likely explain why one Black Lives Matter activist, Bree Newsome, found herself the subject of ridicule on Twitter and beyond for jumping the shark on the subject of stabbings, which is the topic of the day regarding a police intervention in Columbus, Ohio, where an officer shot a 16 year-old in the act of stabbing another girl. Newsome's twisted herself into a pretzel over the incident to whip up the narrative that cops are evil and knife stabbings are everyday occurrences, effectively declaring the vicious near-disemboweling of a teenager in pink jammed up against the hood of a car at the hands of another teen, Ma'Khia Bryant, a sort of rite of passage for Black people. And after a torrent of ridicule, she won't stop digging.

"Here's her first tweet, which, as of this writing, is still up: 

DEFUND & ABOLISH POLICE, REFUND OUR COMMUNITIES

Apr 20, 2021

Teenagers have been having fights including fights involving knives for eons. We do not need police to address these situations by showing up to the scene & using a weapon against one of the teenagers. Y’all need help. I mean that sincerely.

Doc the Dano

@DocDano_sartie1

I remember the good ol’knife fights when I was growing up. Was cool. Like when little Johnny got disemboweled we just laughed uncontrollably on the ground. It even made Johnny chuckle. Good times.

Why does the left so passionately want to venerate criminals?  . . . "Oprah Winfrey, a multi-billionaire, basks in her own perceived victimhood, as do all those multi-millionaire athletes "of color."  We must be grateful for the many, many black conservatives who have not and never will fall victim to the oppression meme — Thomas Sowell, Shelby Steele, Larry Elder, Allen West, Candace Owens, Vernon Jones, Tim Scott, Jason Riley, Carol Swain, and others.  But these folks are reviled by the left, for they threaten leftists' plan to render all black people Democrats for life, to accept the second-class status to which the left means to condemn them.  Their job?  To hate all white people." . . .

Pigs fly! ‘He Has A Duty’: Don Lemon And Chris Cuomo Defend The Officer Who Shot Ma’Khia Bryant  Credit where credit is due.

Cuomo agreed that tasers don’t work the way guns work, especially at the distance that the officer was standing away from Bryant and with just a split-second to make a decision. Lemon made the point that tasers don’t always connect with the target they are trying to hit.

 The White House’s Shameful Race-Baiting Framing Of The Death Of Ma’Khia Bryant (VIDEO)  . . . "Did Psaki offer any context, any nuance, or even the benefit of the doubt of an officer who had to make a life-or-death decision when one teen was poised to plunge a knife into another teen who was backed against the hood of a car, with only an outstretched leg to keep her attacker at bay?

"Nope. Because there is anger against the police and a dead black girl, whose death can be exploited for political gain! You know what comes next, don’t you?

"If you guessed ‘irrelevant inflammatory race-baiting’, you are right!" . . .

Media Ran With Early Reports On The Columbus Shooting Only To Be Wrong

. . . "Instead of waiting for the facts, people claimed that Bryant was unarmed. Many of the posts saying that the teenager was unarmed were still up as of Wednesday afternoon, even after body camera footage clearly showed that she had a knife. The tweets had been shared thousands of times. (RELATED: LeBron James Tweets Picture Of Officer Involved In Ma’Khia Bryant Shooting, Says ‘YOU’RE NEXT’)

“There has been yet another police shooting of an unarmed 16 year old Black teen girl by police in #ColumbusOhio,” CNN Legal Analyst Areva Martin wrote Tuesday night on Twitter.

Who can forget Obama's attack on the police during the Ferguson riots, but before that, recall his "the police acted stupidly" statement.  Yet again the Twitter warriors jumped to a conclusion about the officer-involved shooting in Columbus before the bodycam was released showing the girl was trying to stab somebody with a knife

The Democrats are the Real Enemies of Democracy

  Paul Krause

. . . "Tocqueville's prediction is frightening.  If the Union were "threatened" — and we constantly hear now about how it's threatened: threatened by domestic terrorism, threatened by white men, threatened by Donald Trump, threatened by "lies," threatened by right-wing extremism, threatened by anything that isn't the anti-American left, etc. — then the presidency would assume its supreme prerogative and powers and govern dictatorially.

"Get ready, folks.  With the Democrats back in the White House, we will hear, constantly, how America is threatened by something just so the dictatorship of the Democratic presidency can rule without checks and balances, without pushback, without consent or accountability.  (So much for democracy.)

"The real enemies of democracy are the Democrats and their cronies all over the media, Big Business, and destructive activism.  Conservatives need to understand this and call them out on their anti-democratic agenda.  We are the real guardians of democracy, the rule of the people, and the sanctity and importance of civil society against the encroachments of the totalitarian and parasitic bureaucratic state.  And we mustn't be afraid to use power to check power.  That was the original purpose of the Constitution and why the power and vibrancy of civil society and the courts must be crushed by the Democrats to make us all subservient to the federal state."

BLM Protesters Kneel, Rally for Man Killed by Police, Then It Turns Out He's a White Suspected Carjacker

. . . Second, this story hurts the narrative that unarmed black men are disproportionately killed by police officers. While they try to frame every officer-involved shooting in the worst possible light, BLM and its mainstream media allies dismiss stories of cops doing heroic deeds such as stopping criminals.

Twits

The Federalist Papers  "Black Lives Matter has led the charge to make seemingly every issue in America a referendum on race. One example of this came during a protest outside Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s mansion in St. Paul on Sunday.

"The New York Post reported that dozens of protesters were kneeling outside the mansion amid reports of a shooting involving an officer in Burnsville, Minnesota.

"Mitti Hicks, a reporter for KMSP-TV in Minneapolis, tweeted a video of the kneeling protesters, some of whom were displaying Black Lives Matter signs, flags and other memorabilia.“ 'Protestors kneel after hearing there was an officer-involved shooting in Burnsville moments ago,” she reported. “This information HAS NOT been confirmed but this group says they’re heading there.”

Chauvin: The Case Against the Mob

 Ann Coulter   " One of the main arguments being advanced by Eric Nelson, sole attorney for Derek Chauvin in his trial for the murder of George Floyd, is that the hostile crowd itself
prevented the officers from attempting to perform CPR in the last minutes of Floyd’s life.

"Even the prosecution’s “use of force” experts admitted repeatedly on cross-examination that a hostile crowd would justify Chauvin keeping Floyd restrained until an ambulance arrived. An officer’s duty to provide care is overridden by his duty to keep himself, the suspect and the bystanders safe.

"As was evident from the videos (and admitted to by the bystander witnesses), they were shouting obscenities at the police, threatening them with bodily harm and, in a few instances, had to be held back from rushing the officers. 

"And of course, because of the presence of the angry crowd, the EMTs themselves did not stick around to provide care, but did a “load and scoot,” heaving Floyd into the back of the ambulance and driving three blocks to get away from the mob on the street. They didn’t even want to work inside an ambulance near this feisty group.

"As it becomes increasingly obvious that the belligerent onlookers themselves may have gotten George Floyd killed by creating a dangerous situation for the officers, media commentators leap in to do backup work for the prosecutors by sneering at the idea that the officers might have felt threatened by a few rowdy teenagers."

"Oh, the big pansies! So, a few teenagers yelled at the officers. Show me just ONE example of disaffected urban youth going from agitation to brawling!

"Here’s one! One recent Saturday morning in May 2019, six teens beat the crap out of an off-duty firefighter on the Upper East Side because he stepped in to defend an elderly couple from the youths’ harassment. — youtube.com/watch?v=fNkN1CGnVCc.    Keep reading...

The Times briefly mentioned a “home invasion” in a single article about Floyd last June (27th paragraph – seriously). I guess they didn’t have space to mention Floyd’s pistol-whipping a pregnant woman.

 

The evil that has always been Maxine Waters

The Morning Briefing: I've Known Maxine Waters Is Evil for a Very Long Time  . . . "We’re just playing by the Democrats’ rules here. Blaming “rhetoric” for violence has long been their thing. These are the lunatics who tried to blame a target on political literature for Jared Loughner shooting Gabby Giffords, after all. In their tiny minds, however, it’s only Republicans who have inflammatory rhetoric. They’ve been lying about Trump since Jan. 6th and now they’re running cover for Waters’s actually inflammatory words.

"Maxine Waters is a horrible human being. She’s practically excited by the prospect of violence after the Chauvin verdict, regardless of what it is. If there’s one thing we’ve really learned about the Democrats since last summer it’s that they lust for this unrest in their liberal hellhole cities. Elected Democratic officials have repeatedly condoned and urged on rioters. Waters is merely carrying on the tradition now.

"But some dude in a viking helmet or something."

The House's Failure to Censure Maxine Waters Proves Why the Filibuster Is Desperately Needed . . . “ 'I’ll give you that Congresswoman Waters may have given you something on appeal that may result in this whole trial being overturned,” Judge Peter Cahill told defense attorney Eric Nelson on Monday.

"Cahill all but accused Rep. Waters of putting her thumb on the scale against Chauvin." . . .

Why Maxine Waters Wanted a Mistrial for Derek Chauvin  . . . "Rep. Waters and most Democrats actually want the bedlam to continue. After all, racializing everything by pointing fingers at the straw men of white supremacy; white privilege; and the conveniently invisible and unmeasurable systemic, structural, and internalized variants of racism is the bread and butter of the Democrats. Without it, they have no raison d'être." . . .

Today's House Vote on Censuring Maxine Waters Just Proves the Worst About Democrats  . . . "That Waters wasn’t censured for her latest round of encouraging radical leftists to be confrontational shows the absolute worst kind of hypocrisy in Democrats, and Republicans should make sure to routinely remind people of that from now until Election Day 2022." . . .

Israel Believes Biden Just Weeks Away From Signing New Iran Nuclear Deal

As the Biden administration spares no effort in appeasing and cajoling Iran to restore the 2015 nuclear pact, the rogue regime has renewed threats to destroy Israel.

 Legal Insurrection

Senior Israeli official: “We will not be surprised if within weeks the US and other world powers sign a deal with Iran.”

"Israeli officials believe that President Joe Biden may be just weeks away from inking a new nuclear deal with Iran. Jerusalem “will not be surprised if within weeks the US and other world powers sign a deal with Iran,” an Israeli official told media.

"The Biden administration is currently engaged in European Union-mediated talks with Iran to restore the Obama-era nuclear deal. The White House has already made major concessions to Tehran, including sanctions relief, revoking enforcement of the U.N. weapons embargo, and removing the terrorist designation of an Iranian-backed Yemeni jihadi group.

"The Times of Israel reported Israeli officials’ comments:

Israeli officials on Sunday night expressed concern that the Biden administration will rush to rejoin the nuclear deal with Iran, arguing that Washington’s negotiating power is compromised by its eagerness to clinch a pact.

“Both sides, the Americans and the Iranians, want a deal. The Iranians smell that the Americans want an agreement at any price,” an official told Channel 12 on condition of anonymity, following a top-level security cabinet meeting on the issue.

“The outcome is known from the start — a return to the Iran deal with amendments,” the official added.

The official said such a deal, in the long term, “will restrict Israel’s freedom of movement. It’s very troubling.”

Another senior Israeli official told the Axios site that they feared a deal could come very soon. “We will not be surprised if within weeks the US and other world powers sign a deal with Iran.”

How can any reasonable person vote Democrat or for their sock puppet Biden?

Throughout the Obama presidency, it became clear that Obama's goal was to abandon the Constitution in favor of a socialist-style system with an all-powerful government and a people divided by race, with a system of government spoils determining winners and losers.  Biden was on board.

Biden's statement following the Chauvin verdict was disgraceful  "Biden was always a vicious buffoon.  That is, he's a man with a small, feral intelligence that he's managed to leverage into power by sinking his talons into whatever racial or ideological hatred is popular at the time.  In many ways, he was made for this moment, which culminated with him, as the current occupant of the White House, following a trial predicated on jury intimidation, with a statement oozing contempt for the nation he governs.

"In the 1970s, when Biden entered the White House, he attached himself to the white supremacists and segregationists.  By the 1980s, when their heyday had passed, he joined forces with Ted "Chappaquiddick" Kennedy, an alcoholic manslaughterer and the terror of decent women, to launch a racist attack against Clarence Thomas, a black man of dignity, intelligence, and integrity, solely because Thomas wasn't prepared as a judge to jettison the Constitution to achieve leftist political ends.

"In the 1990s, Biden reinvented himself as tough on crime. One of his signature accomplishments was the 1994 Crime Bill, which sent three generations of Black men to prison. It took Donald Trump to begin undoing its effects on the Black community, in which young men were raised by gangsters because their fathers were rotting in jail thanks to Joe Biden." . . .

If Biden believes in the White privilege–Black victimization line he's spouting, it would behoove him to leave the White House immediately.  As long as he stays there, a symbol of systemic racism in America, he is, in his own words, "a stain on our nation's soul."  The fact that he has no intention of leaving is the strongest argument one can make that he doesn't believe a word he's saying.

The trial of Derek Chauvin has unleashed the dogs of thuggery and revolution  . . . "The primary lesson the militant left will take away from the Chauvin trial is not that he was found guilty but that its tactics work.  Leftists' willingness to use violence, looting, intimidation, and threats has succeeded beyond their wildest dreams as they watched a judge and jury succumb to their threats and history of belligerence.  Further, the elected members of the Democrat party as well as the Democrat media and the bulk of the ruling elites refused to criticize their tactics and in fact defended them and regurgitated their talking points as if they were trained seals." . . .

Let's be clear: Maxine Waters knew her rhetoric would incite violence in Minneapolis—but she doesn't care, she just requests police escorts for herself.

I was shot because of this kind of dangerous rhetoric.

Where is the outrage from Dems & the media? They need to condemn this.
