Remembering Hate Speech; Victor Davis Hanson
What we used to know as “hate speech” is now presidentially acceptable speech, and what has followed from it is no surprise.
"It has been a canard of the Left that “words matter.” We are lectured that “hate speech” leads inevitably to street violence.
"So how ironic that the Left defames nearly half of America as dangerous “semi-fascist” extremists, white-raged and privileged, ultra MAGA, and guilty of all sorts of thought crimes from secession to civil insurrection? And what is the result?
"Does this constant demonization matter? And what are the bitter fruits of such labors? After all, what did Barack Obama long ago mean by “clingers” or once Hillary Clinton by “deplorables” and “irredeemables”?
"What did Joe Biden imply by “dregs” and “chumps” and “semi-fascists”? Or what did the FBI lovebirds really mean by smelly Walmart goers and “hillbillies”? After a point, did not America get this monotonous message?
"And what does Joe Biden really mean when he recycles his academic advisors’ tired tropes of right-wing insurrectionists threatening the republic?. . .
American Blacks and the Wawa mob in Philadelphia - American Thinker
“What shall be done with the four million slaves if they are emancipated? [snip] Our answer is, do nothing with them; mind your business, and let them mind theirs. Your doing with them is their greatest misfortune. They have been undone by your doings, and all they now ask, and really have need of at your hands, is just to let them alone. They suffer by every interference, and succeed best by being let alone.” – Frederick Douglass (1862).
"Since the dawn of the Democrat party, Democrats have proven themselves incapable of leaving Blacks alone. During the years of open racism, they enslaved Blacks and then subjected them to Jim Crow. Since Jim Crow, they’ve done something more pernicious: They’ve destroyed many Blacks’ identity as equal citizens in America. The result is feral behavior such as that most recently seen at the Wawa in Philadelphia. This is not about race; it’s about culture and how the Democrats have destroyed it.
"If you want a detailed timeline of the Democrat party’s depredation against Blacks in America—not just attacks on personal and economic liberty, but also on the cultural core of Black Americans—I highly recommend Bob Parks’ The Democrat Race Lie, which has a long list of Democrat and Republican policies regarding American Blacks. What’s remarkably clear about the Democrats is that they refuse to heed Frederick Douglass’s impassioned plea to leave Blacks alone.
"Journalist Glenn Greenwald is criticized the Democratic Party, calling members authoritarians trying to criminalize their opposition.
"After The Prospect managing editor Ryan Cooper complained about Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz not being indicted with in a sex-trafficking probe, Greenwald, co-founder of The Intercept, responded with his criticism.
" 'Chickens*** club," Cooper tweeted.
"Greenwald replied in a retweet: "This is a perfect illustration of how authoritarian so many Democrats are. ". . .
Whom do we fear most: foreign dictators or the American citizens who serve them?
"Via Fox News:
House Republicans are sounding the alarm over a reported move by Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro to empty prisons of violent criminals and send them to the U.S. southern border — with Republicans warning that such a move could put the U.S. “in grave danger.”
“We write you with serious concern about a recent U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) intelligence report received by Border Patrol that instructs agents to look for violent criminals from Venezuela among the migrant caravans heading towards the U.S.-Mexico border,” the letter by 14 House Republicans, led by Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Texas.
Breitbart News reported last week that the DHS intelligence report warned that prisoners freed by the regime were seen within migrant caravans traveling to the U.S. from Mexico as recently as July.
Fact Check: White House Corrects Biden Over Lie He Told About Gas Prices… | Weasel Zippers

Washington (CNN)During a campaign-style Friday speech at a Democratic National Committee event in Washington, President Joe Biden boasted about the three-month decline in gas prices and about the unemployment rate.
But he used inaccurate figures on both subjects.
After 10 Terrible Plagues, Pharaoh Proudly Announces Plagues Are Now Down 100% | Babylon Bee
"EGYPT — After enduring 10 horrible plagues that ravaged the kingdom due to his stubbornness and pride, Pharaoh proudly announced that plagues in Egypt are now down 100%.
" 'Hey, folks, we did it! I did it! I brought the plague rate down! This is because of my policies. No joke! Come on, man!" said Pharoah in a speech, apparently still slightly dazed from being struck in the head by a flaming hailstone. "We now have 10 fewer plagues than we had just a month ago. That's real progress! For real!"
"Several critics pointed out that the plagues of blood, frogs, lice, flies, livestock pestilence, boils, hail, locusts, darkness, and the killing of firstborn children were a direct result of Pharaoh's policies and would have never happened to begin with if Pharaoh had made wiser decisions. The king then sentenced those critics to make bricks without straw for the rest of their lives.
"The Pharaoh's Press Secretary Kafele Jahi-Psttah echoed the ruler's sentiments, saying: "We're proud of the work we've done in this administration, reducing the plague rate more than any Pharaoh ever before in history."
"At publishing time, The Pharaoh's administration touted another milestone accomplishment, as they had reduced the number of charioteer deaths unrelated to drowning in the Red Sea by 100%."
Seraphin said several agents he knows took part in the August 8 raid on former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, which he said he would’ve refused to participate in.
The Daily Wire "An FBI whistleblower warned that the bureau has been transformed from a law enforcement agency to an intelligence-gathering operation that spies on law-abiding Americans to help advance a political agenda and said thousands of agents and employees feel betrayed by the bureau’s leadership.
"Kyle Seraphin told podcaster and radio host Dan Bongino over a bombshell, two-part interview that agents are routinely directed to spy on Americans with little or no basis, the bureau’s management ranks are hopelessly politicized by inexperienced corporate climbers, and that hundreds of experienced agents are staying on despite their disgust simply to collect their pensions.
“ 'The number of guys who say, ‘I don’t agree with what’s going on here, but I’ve got three years to retire,’ it’s heartbreaking,” said Seraphin, a five-year veteran and former Air Force member who is currently suspended without pay and unable to seek another job without quitting or getting the FBI’s permission.". . .
Did the FBI Finally Go Too Far? - American Thinker
Since Joe Biden was inaugurated as president, his Department of Justice and the FBI have targeted Trump-supporters, conservatives, and pro-lifers.
The time has come to reform the FBI - American Thinker
In a disgusting display of abusive political retribution, 25-30 FBI agents with guns drawn raided the home of a father of seven over disputed charges that were dropped by the state of Pennsylvania but picked up for apparently political purposes by the vengeful and disgraceful Garland DOJ.
"Staying out of handicapped parking spaces is for little people, apparently. While you or I would face a fine of $250 to $1,000 in California for parking in a handicapped spot in front of a fancy restaurant while we spent two hours inside, if we didn't have the necessary documentation, the rules are different for Barack Obama.
"The U.K. Daily Mail reports:
Former President Barack Obama's Secret Service SUV was spotted parked in a handicapped spot for two hours as he dined at a swanky West Los Angeles sushi restaurant with his two daughters.
The black SUV stayed in a spot marked for handicap parking as it waited for the Obamas to finish eating at the pricey Hamasaku restaurant, where eight-piece sushi rolls cost $50 and specialty rolls go for more than $20 each. . . .
U.S. Border Patrol Makes Horrific Discovery — 78 Terrorists Caught At Southern Border - Analyzing America "It’s been a historic summer for all of the wrong reasons under the failed policies of Joe Biden and the Democrats.
"A total of 78 individuals on the terror watchlist were caught at the U.S. southern boarder this year. In August alone, a dozen terrorists were caught at the border. These individuals are identified on the FBI’s Terrorist Screening Database (TSDB).
"To put this horrific discovery in perspective, 78 terrorists is triple the previous five fiscal years — combined. The most terrifying and unknown statistic of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is the number of terrorists who crossed the southern border undetected.
"These individuals are either “known terrorists” or “reasonably suspected” by the FBI of being involved in terrorist activities.
""This evidence further demonstrates how the immigration system has been fundamentally broken under Joe Biden.
"Under Trump, Americans saw the lowest rate of illegal immigration in over 40 years.
"Under Biden, we have seen the highest rate of illegal immigration over 60 years.". . .

"Arizona’s Republican gubernatorial nominee welcomed congresswoman Liz Cheney (R-WY), calling her dangerous, saying electing her would endanger the republic.
"Candidate Kari Lake told Maria Bartiromo that Cheney’s remarks may be the best gift she ever got. The two talked during a Sunday broadcast of the Fox News program “Sunday Morning Futures.”
"“I mean, the people of Wyoming can’t stand her,” Lake said. “I’m pretty much sure that the people of Arizona don’t like Liz Cheney.”
"The face of the anti-Trump movement was soundly spanked in Wyoming’s Republican primary for the state’s lone House seat. Cheney earned just 29 percent of the vote while her Trump-endorsed opponent, Harriet Hageman, had 66 percent of voters select her. The congresswoman’s loss is probably worse since many of her voters were Democrats who switched parties to vote for her in the GOP primary.". . .
American Thinker "I began watching the funeral service of Queen Elizabeth II at 4:00 a.m. It was an event filled with emotion and so many traditions from Western Civilization over the centuries. It was also a poignant reminder that, with the death of the queen, we have lost one of our last connections to that great civilization that gave us law, order, general liberty, culture, and our Christian heritage.
"During the 10-day mourning period, tens of thousands of people gathered in the streets; yet, there was only respectful silence and enthusiastic cheering for the queen. When a rabble rouser tried to disrupt, he was told to “shut up.”
"This is in stark contrast to our own nation, where radical leftists are allowed to intimidate, punish, and even murder other Americans. It’s conservatives who are told to “shut up.” Michael Harris, “cultural critic,” wrote that the “’woke’ attack on the deceased queen is actually a good thing” because it furthers Critical Race Theory and reminds us that America had slaves. He failed to note the legacy of the British lies in the fact that, everywhere they ruled, slavery was eventually abolished -- including America -- literacy rates improved, railroads were built, and elites were educated at universities.
"The funeral service was held at the 11th century Gothic cathedral -- Westminster Abbey, followed by the committal service in St. George’s Chapel in the 1000-year-old Gothic/Victorian/Georgian Windsor Castle. As the service drew to a close, the coffin of Queen Elizabeth was lowered into the Royal Vault where, in a private burial, she will be laid to rest in the King George VI Memorial Chapel with her belated husband Prince Philip, her parents, and her sister Margaret.
"Those magnificent structures, the classical music, and the somber pipe organ strains were evidence of the incredible culture that Christendom has given the world in music, art and architecture. The Left wants to cancel that culture and its visual reminders of the Christian faith. ". . .
