Meet John Fetterman: America’s Weirdest Senate Candidate Ever

                                            "The man is a literal spectacle."

 The American Spectator  "What’s six foot, eight inches, weighs about 300 pounds, wears tattoos, waves rainbow and marijuana flags, and points a shotgun at a black jogger? If you answered Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman, go to the head of the class.

"Fetterman is plainly and undeniably the weirdest major party nominee to the U.S. Senate that America has ever seen. With his hoodie and tattoos — his standard attire — he looks like a biker at a bar in western Pennsylvania. In fact, indulge me with this inspired image:

"A close friend of mine, Tod, is a former police officer. He vividly recalls a 911 dispatch he will never forget: He and two other officers were called to a bar to deal with a massive hulk of a man, a prison escapee who had strewn a dozen guys across the floor and pool table. “Oh,” shrugged the giant at the cops, “they only sent three of you?” The officers sicced upon the giant a growling German shepherd named Dieter, who proceeded to fasten his jaws to the man’s testicles as the hulk resumed tossing human beings around the room.

"Fetterman looks like that guy.". . .

Fetterman is also a big-time bail-out guy. He has called for the cancellation of student debt and even aggressively campaigns for it. A hilarious ad run during the Steelers game this past weekend features a voiceover from a grumbling union worker complaining about how Fetterman wants to take money from hardworking guys who never went to college in order to bail out “blue-haired” baristas and “snowflakes” who majored in gender studies. The ad is spot on.

John Fetterman's Desperation Grows, As He Now Tries to Tie Dr. Oz to Hitler   . . ."In this instance, Fetterman shared an article from Susan Rinkunas at Jezebel, showing Dr. Oz giving remarks at a World War II museum, near Hitler's car. "Dr. Oz Stood in Front of One of Hitler's Cars at a Fundraiser and Had Jordan Peterson Call In," the headline read. Again, though, the event took place at the Lyon Air Museum and the car is there as a part of authentic history. 

Fetterman's tweet claimed that "if you're asking donors for money in front of Hitler’s literal car, then you shouldn't be running for U.S. Senate."

Your choice: The Republican...or Chuck Schumer

 If you like Chuck Schumer's agenda, go ahead and vote Democrat.  But don't think you are going to be sending some kind of independent thinker to the Senate by voting Democrat.  Whenever they get to the Senate, they will do Schumer's bidding.

  American Thinker   . . ."You might be surprised that Democrats voted with McConnell about one third of the time.  That is because McConnell voted with Schumer 34% of the time.  Those Democrats were not really voting with McConnell; they were voting with their own majority leader, Schumer, on the same votes where McConnell voted with him.

"Republicans do not have quite the same party discipline as the Democrats do.  While Democrats agreed with their leader over 97% of the time on average, Republicans agreed with theirs less than 82% of the time.  The Democrat "renegade," Sen. Manchin, still voted with his leader 91% of the time.  The Republican "renegade," Sen. Collins, voted with her leader only 63% of the time.  In fact, Collins voted with Schumer more often than she voted with her own party leader, McConnell: 70% to 63%.

"Voters should know that when they vote for a Democrat, they are getting a clone of Chuck Schumer when it comes to voting.  Maybe you find Senator Mark Kelly attractive because he was in the military and was an astronaut.  He voted with his party leader 96% of the time, even more often than Bernie Sanders and Kyrsten Sinema did.  His 96% matches that of the very liberal Edward Markey (D-Mass.).  Arizonans should know that a vote for Mark Kelly is equivalent to a vote for a Massachusetts liberal.". . .

A massive indictment of the Democrat party   "The U.S. Constitution, by limiting federal power, is designed to protect the individual citizen from external coercion.  "Man should not be in the service of society," said philosopher Joseph Campbell.  "Society should be in the service of man.  When man is in the service of society," Campbell warned, "you have a monster state, and that's what is threatening the world at this minute."  The Democrat party is behind it.". . .

Newsom and Biden: where can we find freedom from them?

When Newsom's constituency is composed of TV and Hollywood personalities, there isn't much thought for the rest of us drones. TD

Newsom wants to tax oil companies for soaring gas prices. It'll be a bumpy road for motorists no matter what

Gas prices rising again, Biden accountability, credibility falling again  . . ."President Joe Biden has taken every opportunity lately to take credit for the fact that gasoline prices fell for 99 days in a recent stretch.  That he did this by releasing millions of gallons of oil from our Strategic Oil Reserve, thereby endangering our future security, and ridiculously — if relentlessly — badgering oil companies for being profitable, was, of course, immaterial.

"As long as prices at the pump were going down, it was all duckies and bunnies...and all due to Biden.  But now that prices are rising again — by as much as 60 cents a gallon in some areas last week alone — the president will not take the blame.

'Biden was at fault for the rapidly rising gas prices shortly after he took office.  And he is at fault for high prices now.  When Trump was in office, gas prices were historically low, and America was energy independent.  Because of his policies.

"On his first day in office, Biden canceled the Keystone Pipeline, and every day since, he has slandered, harassed, and vilified virtually every sector of the American energy industry.  All in chimerical, needless, fruitless, and impossible pursuit of slowing or ending "climate change."

"Moreover, his Executive Order 13990 dramatically increased the costs and red tape involved in the exploration, extraction, and refining of so-called fossil fuels...for any company dumb enough to engage in these endeavors.

"Energy companies are rightly asking why they would invest tens of billions of dollars in new supplies geared toward the future production of energy here at home when the Biden administration has pledged to phase out all fossil fuels within ten years. ". . .

Fed’s Poor Performance Is Big Reason Inflation’s Out Of Control  

Fed leaders may need a hard landing next year to truncate that drawn-out process of reducing inflation to their target level of 2%. A major recession in 2023 may cause inflation to hit its target of 2% again in 2024, but not without an awful lot of pain first.

The good news is that, at this rate, soon there will be no difference in our country and the second-rate countries these people are fleeing. No point to applying for asylum after that! We'll all be exactly the same. The bad news is, there will be no country left where Americans can seek asylum.

Hunter Biden’s Business Partner Says Disgraced FBI Agent Ignored Evidence of Bidens’ ‘Multiple Felonies’

Thomas Lifson  "Most readers already know that Tony Bobulinski was the business partner of Hunter Biden and his uncle, Jim Biden, the president's brother, as they attempted to put together deals with foreign actors.  That partnership broke up, and Bobulinski has become a whistleblower.  But his efforts to interest the FBI in multiple Biden family felonies, including against him, have come to naught.

"Last night, in a second sit-down interview with Tucker Carlson, Bobulinski laid out stunning details on how the FBI deep-sixed any public revelations, much less indictments, based on what Bobulinski says are thousands of pages of proof, including emails, text messages, recorded phone calls, and actual business documents.  Despite having possession of abundant evidence, the FBI sat on the investigation through the 2020 election, thereby depriving the public of information that almost certainly would have swayed enough votes to change the outcome and re-elect Donald Trump." . . .

During an interview aired on Tuesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” former Hunter Biden business associate Tony Bobulinski stated that if Facebook, Twitter, or anyone else had reached out to him to verify the authenticity of emails sent to him in The New York Post’s Hunter Biden laptop story, he would have produced the email, with the metadata, within minutes, but no one did.

The Military's Self-Destructing Perception Bubble

 

Bob Brostoski  . . ."When questioned about many of today's controversial changes or policies in the military, top brass almost always fall back on the standard answer: "the military is only a reflection of the American people."  It's here where the military is failing miserably and will probably continue to hemorrhage recruiting numbers for years to come.  There was a time when the military was a pretty accurate representation of the American people, but that is no longer the case.  The military, the most trusted and respected federal agency when I retired, is now in the ranks of the IRS and the FBI.  Somehow, the military has managed to take a combat-trained force, which also happened to be the one of the most diverse and trusted organization in the country, and succeeded in ostracizing most of its supporters.  While the military still believes that it is representing the whole country, it now seems to represent only a small group of leftists and elitists that not only hate the country, but also have historically despised the same military that is now killing itself trying to accommodate every social just crisis that hits Twitter or Facebook at any given moment.". . .

The military would benefit itself and the country by creating a task force to rebuild and depoliticize itself.  Extra care and critical thinking should be utilized in the selection of the members.  Just one hint on whom not to select to stay within the parameters of critical thinking: former secretaries of defense, generals, media talent, or anyone from the DoD Office of Diversity Management and Equal Opportunity.

Young Iranians Fight For Freedom While The World Looks Away

Just as it did when Obama's help was needed.

 Issues & Insights

"Bob Marley said: “Better to die fighting for freedom than be a prisoner all the days of your life.” For more than 200 Iranians who have been killed so far, as the nationwide uprising enters its second week, their martyrdom will be a milestone on the road to freedom, justice and democracy.

"The people of Iran have lost their fear of the gun and baton wielding goons from the terrorist Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) and their thuggish Basij militia colleagues. Since the so-called morality police brutally murdered 22-year-old Mahsa Amini for not wearing her hijab (headscarf) properly, in mid-September, the protests have spread across the whole of Iran, with women tearing off and burning their hijabs and even cutting their hair.

"Tens of thousands of mostly young protesters, including thousands of women, have taken to the streets, setting fire to posters of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and President Ebrahim Raisi, chanting “Death to the dictator” and “Death to Khamenei” indicating their determination to overthrow the theocratic, repressive regime.

"The IRGC and Basij have used baton charges, tear gas, bird shot and live ammunition to counter the protests, killing more than 200 so far. Over 10,000 have been arrested, sparking mass demonstrations outside many prisons, like the notorious Evin prison in Tehran, where thousands of relatives and friends of those imprisoned during the riots have demanded their release.

"The protests have so far spread to over 160 towns and cities in all 31 Iranian provinces. Demonstrations are continuing daily in 16 major universities. The mullahs have tried desperately to control the spread of protests by disrupting and disconnecting the internet in large parts of Iran. They hope that by doing so, they will be able to conceal the true dimensions of the uprising and revelations regarding the scope of the massacre and brutal clampdown.

"Resistance units of the main opposition Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK), which have sprung up across the country, are actively organizing and sustaining the revolt. The MEK leader, Maryam Rajavi, has called on Iranian doctors and nurses to treat protesters who have been injured in the uprising in places of safety, to protect them from arrest by the IRGC, who have been known to drag wounded demonstrators from their hospital beds.". . .

Remember when the ineffective Obama let the freedom fighters down?

Guess Who’s Running Again…?

Via Washington Examiner:

Hillary Clinton is still eyeing a possible presidential run in 2024 after making comments about open borders, according to Dick Morris, a former adviser and strategist for former President Bill Clinton.

She is hoping to run as a centrist Democratic candidate despite denying any presidential plans last month, Morris said. Her comment on no one wanting an open border is part of a “playbook” Morris created for Bill Clinton.

Dem Rep. Cori Bush Doubles Down On “Defund The Police”: “We Can’t Get Caught Up In The Words”

Democrats must be voted out of office for at least a generation  . . ."Fox News host Tucker Carlson was right.  The Democrats don’t care about you.  They don’t respect you. They don’t like the United States, either.  You are stupid, a hick, a redneck, a racist, maybe an insurrectionist, that must, for the good of the elite’s enormous bank accounts and power, be silenced.  Democrats see the American people as sheep to be controlled rather than rational beings to be persuaded.

"The Democrats cannot be trusted in future elections to inform the voters of their real agenda ahead of the vote.  They will tell you they are moderates and then after getting elected they will shove as much of their destructive leftist agenda down your throats as they can.". . . 

Abortion and Beto O’Rourke

 

American Greatness

The Texas Democrat is either confused or lying about his position on abortion.

. . ."In August, just two months before he dropped out of the presidential race at a Town Hall in South Carolina, a man noted O’Rourke’s encounter in Cleveland about third-trimester abortion and asked, “I was born September 8th, 1989, and I want to know if you think on September 7, 1989, my life had no value?” O’Rourke responded that “of course, I don’t think that, and of course, I’m glad you’re here.” Then he said that his answer in Ohio remains the same. “That neither you, nor I, or the United States government should be making, but that’s a decision for the woman to make.” 

" 'But what about my right to life?” the man asked. O’Rourke then started brusquely talking over him, “I listened to you, I heard your question. I’m answering it.” He mentioned the attack on Roe, which he insisted was the “settled law of the land.” O’Rourke finished by saying, “I don’t question the decision a woman makes. Only she knows what she knows, and I want to trust her with that. So, I appreciate the question.”

"So not only was O’Rourke saying it was OK to violate Roe (which was still law); belittled the questioner saying, in effect, his mother had the right to abort him; and moreover, that partial-birth abortion, which has been illegal since 2007 (and still is) met with his approval. The next day, O’Rourke posted the video on his Twitter account and included a caption that began, “No matter how you ask the question, my answer will always be the same.' ” . . .
