Verbal diarrhea: Take a look at Jake Tapper's face as Beto O'Rourke tries to tell him all Trump voters are racist

Townhall

Monica Showalter  "If Democrats and their media allies can be described as a single animal, take a look at this picture of CNN anchor Jake Tapper and flailing presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke as O'Rourke tries to claim that anyone voting for President Trump is a racist. Tapper looks like the front end of the beast in the throes of some kind of extended digestive trouble and O'Rourke looks like the back end, producing the noisy 'output.'" . . .

. . . "No wonder Tapper looked like the guy on the toilet waiting desperately for the whole thing to be over. With a string of drivel like that from O'Rourke, where is one to start? The bottom line here is that O'Rourke is an increasingly irrelevant candidate, his words are increasingly inchoate, and he's being used to fill news time, despite his one-percent support among Democrats alone. Nobody wants this guy, so now he's being made the verbal diarrhea mouthpiece for the increasingly unhinged Democrat narrative.

"Tapper shouldn't put up with this dreck and really ought to have repeated his question to O'Rourke in a bid to pin him down and make him answer it.  . . ."

Al Sharpton Heckled In Baltimore: “You’re A Phony . . . You’re A Hustler!” (VIDEO

Al Sharpton has been in Baltimore defending the record of Democrat Rep. Elijah Cummings, but not all of the local residents are happy about it.

 "MUST WATCH: Al Sharpton Confronted & Heckled By Baltimore Residents"

A must-watch video of Baltimore residents speaking out about their living conditions and how unsafe the city they’re living in is was posted onto Youtube a few days ago.It showed several citizens of Baltimore, Rep. Elijah Cummings’ district, talking about how scary it is to live in the city, then showed Democrat anti-Trump Rev. Al Sharpton making an appearance condemning Trump’s criticism of Cummings and the city.Several Baltimore residents were outraged over Sharpton’s audacity and forced him to face the facts by boldly shouting out to him statements like, “You go back to New York! You bring that s*** to New York! You ain’t do nothing for Baltimore! You a phony!” and “Our schools are failing us! Where are you when our schools are failing us? You’re just a hustler.”

White Supremacy and Know-Nothings  "Any conservative who takes seriously the charge that conservatism has a serious white-supremacy problem is a chump. The people making such charges—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) in her maniacal tweets, the Baltimore Sun editorial page—invoke a dark history of white supremacy in their condemnations of President Trump, Tucker Carlson, and those who admire them, but they don’t know anything about that record." . . . 

Ilhan Omar Falsely Claims That 'White Men' Are Greater Threat Than Jihadis

. . . "She also offered a ready solution: “Profiling, monitoring, and creating policies to fight the radicalization of white men.” Amid a general clamor on the Leftover “white supremacist terrorism,” this is even crazier than most claims, as commonplace as it is. But the reality is that the idea that there is a massive terror threat from “white supremacists,” dwarfing the jihad threat, isn’t remotely true." . . .

UPDATED: U.S. athletes protest Trump on medals stand at Pan Am Games. No courage necessary

It's sickening because courageous U.S. men and women have died for this flag, and the brave people of Hong Kong are defying a brutal communist juggernaut by waving that very same flag as the world's strongest beacon of freedom. By Monica Showalter

UPDATE:  Another athletic egomaniac looking for some extra spotlight by dissing the U.S. flag     "By now, the routine of athletes calling attention to themselves by dissing the U.S. flag at some athletic event has become so de rigueur you could write the script before it happens.

"I'll be a victim for CNN now!"

"Lose the big prize. Take a knee to the flag. Make a raving or two to the press about the awfulness of the U.S. And reap lots of media attention your athletic performance wouldn't otherwise merit. Instant fame. Endorsement deals. Money. Profit big from insulting the very flag of the country that made your performance possible.
"A couple days ago we got this attention-seeker whose bronze medal in fencing at a championship event in Lima, Peru, apparently wasn't sufficient for him." . . .
. . . 
"Never heard of him before. Hope I never hear from him again.
"But that's too much to ask, what with an eager media clamoring to record his every word and hand him exposure his rivals can only envy. The two U.S. athletes who outperformed this publicity hound get zero press attention, but the third-place finisher, Race Imboden, gets all the soapbox he wants. See how they fawn:" . . . Right on cue, he was the darling of CNN

UPDATE: Virtue-signalling has consequences

Race Imboden — who took home gold in the team foil event — knelt during the national anthem at the medal ceremony Friday in Lima, Peru, in what he saw was a protest over racism and gun control.

Washington Times  "Two Americans used their medal-winning moments at the Pan American Games to draw attention to social issues back home that they feel are spiraling out of control.
"During their medals ceremonies at the sports festival in Lima, fencer Race Imboden took a knee and hammer thrower Gwen Berry raised her fist. Both athletes could represent the U.S. less than a year from now at the Tokyo Olympics, where similar protests would be seen by a much wider audience.

"I'll own the TV talk shows!"

"“Racism, gun control, mistreatment of immigrants, and a president who spreads hate are at the top of a long list” of America’s problems, Imboden said in a tweet sent after his team’s foil medals ceremony. “I chose to sacrifice my moment today at the top of the podium to call attention to issues that I believe need to be addressed.

"They're bound to see me way out here!"

"“I encourage others to please use your platforms for empowerment and change.”
"Berry raised her fist as America’s national anthem was played to honor her win in the hammer throw. She called out injustice in America “and a president who’s making it worse.”
“ 'It’s too important to not say something,” Berry told USA Today. “Something has to be said. If nothing is said, nothing will be done, and nothing will be fixed, and nothing will be changed.' ” . . .

And just why? These people are either ignorant tools of the Democrats or simple showoffs, looking for admiration from other personalities who also strive for acceptance. I see them as no different than the "Look-at-me!" soccer player who adored center stage and relished every opportunity to place herself there.

"They're looking at me!"

The mouth and the intellect of Joe Biden

PolitiFact Rates Biden Claim About Trump 'False'  "PolitiFact, a well-known, left-leaning fact-checking site, decided to address the portion of Biden’s statement where he claimed Trump said “that immigrants would, quote, ‘carve you up with a knife.’” In short, PolitiFact admits that Trump did not say that at all.

At an October 2018 rally in Texas, Trump attacked then-U.S. Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke, who is now running for U.S. president.

"O'Rourke voted against the border wall," Trump said. "He voted against Kate's law. And he voted for Obama amnesty. O'Rourke even voted to shield MS-13 gang members from deportation. He doesn't want to deport them. He says they're people. They're people. They carve you up with a knife, but they're people."

MS-13 is a violent transnational gang with members primarily in Central America and the United States. Trump’s words were clearly aimed at gang members, not all immigrants.

"The Biden campaign did not respond to PolitiFact’s request for comment. Nevertheless, they rated the claim as false.

 "Democrats and the media have been twisting Trump's words for years now, so it's not surprising Biden resorted to lying about Trump's comments, but it is nice to see left-leaning fact-checkers calling him out for his lies."

Biden’s Campaign-Trail Gaffes

Is Joe Okay? Biden’s Mouth Goes Rogue

Rep. Joaquin Castro business target list backfires as Texans rally around Bill Miller Bar-B-Q

Initially, Castro’s hit list resulted in a lot of death threats and other hate directed at those listed and at their workplaces/investments/businesses.But a funny thing happened on the way to Castro’s war on his own constituents: Trump supporters are fighting back . . . with their wallets

Legal Insurrection  "Leftist projection is something that we once had to work to prove and often could not (at least to skeptics), but after the 2008 election of Barack Obama as president, it became a bit easier because the Obama executive branch was busily silencing and undermining conservative and/or Tea Party voices while publicly speaking about transparency, tolerance, equity, and fairness.

     "Hillary Clinton’s phantom “vast right-wing conspiracy” of the 1990’s was replaced with the right’s understanding that there may indeed be a “vast left-wing conspiracy.”  The very thing she claimed was aligned against her and was completely imaginary was actually just how the left rolls.

     "And we’re seeing it vividly today.  Since President Trump was duly elected our nation’s president, #TheResistance has been in overdrive.  Donning “pussy hats” or masks and all-black gear, the anti-Trumpers dance on the edge of civility and even of criminality.

     "Their goal has become increasingly apparent since President Trump took office: get rid of Trump. Because Orange Man Bad.  One of the cues the current leftist “resistance” is taking came from then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton (D-NY): the people who support Trump are “deplorables.”  They are less than human, less than those on the fat-cat, self-satisfied progressive left.

     "Fast forward to July of this year and leftist outlets insist that anyone who supports the “racist” and “white supremacist” Trump is clearly, themselves, a racist white supremacist.  The left’s “war,” then, goes beyond Trump and even beyond the GOP to everyday normal American voters." . . .

People reporting lines around the block at Bill Miller Bar-B-Q following Castro’s Trump shaming  While many people identified on the political hit list recently shared by Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-TX) have been harassed by leftists, many Americans have come out to show support for the people unfairly singled out for supporting President Donald

Trump.
"Included on Castro’s list were some San Antonio businesses owned by people who have donated to Trump’s campaign. One of those businesses is Bill Miller Bar-B-Q.
"It seems Castro may have unintentionally advertised for the business because people claiming to be locals are reporting lines of people looking to support it stretching long and far.
" “Cars were lined up around the block at one of the San Antonio Texas locations! Loved The Bill Miller Breakfast Special. I even purchased breakfast tac oui s for my coworkers!” one user tweeted along with a picture of cars waiting to give the business their money." . . .

House Republicans Call For Ethics Probe Into Joaquin Castro For Sharing Trump Donor Names  . . . "2020 presidential candidate Julian Castro has defended his brother's behavior . . .  on the same grounds while denouncing harassment against Trump supporters. "

Sanctuary cities, who wouldn't want to live freely in one, especially if you're a Democrat?

Central American drug dealers having a field day in those sanctuary cities

"With the press idealizing every illegal immigrant, and sanctuary cities making sanctuary for illegals a higher priority than even the welfare of their own citizens, it hasn't taken long for Central American drug dealers to move in and have a field day. Want to know why San Francisco is such a filth-strewn place? Look no further than its imported drug problem, which seems to be especially beneficial to foreign drug dealers.

Another Splendiferous, Gafftastic Day for Joe Biden

No one is more pleased about Biden's gaffisms than his main rivals for his party's nomination. But the former veep has built a great deal of momentum over the last few months and the latest polls show him nearly doubling his lead over his nearest rivals, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.
He is clearly the candidate to beat. But his penchant for weird misstatements and oddly unsettling references cause many less-partisan observers to wonder whether the old man is simply confused, or suffering from some debilitating condition like Alzheimer's disease.
It hardly matters. The next debate holds great peril for Biden. If he were to slip badly on national TV in front of millions of Democrats, even his friends in the media would start to abandon him.

MSNBC and CNN neck and neck for supreme agitprop

Totally Insane: MSNBC Host Says AG William Barr Might Be Involved In Epstein's Death  "Is MSNBC no different from InfoWars, the site that runs on conspiracy theories? Well, today, they’re certainly no daylight between them. This morning news about Jeffrey Epstein’s suicide dominated the headlines. The former billionaire hedge fund manager with ties to some of the world’s most powerful and connected people was found dead in his cell, despite being put on suicide watch for the past two weeks after he failed in his first attempt. Reportedly, he was taken off suicide watch hours before he killed himself. Yes, there are a lot of questions; Attorney General William Barr has already ordered the FBI and the DOJ inspector general to look into how Epstein died while under federal custody. And alas, that brings us to MSNBC host Joy Reid who alleges that Barr could be behind the death of Epstein, while other MSNBC guests and hosts inferred Russia. Put down the crack pipe, everyone (via Grabien):" . . .

. . .  Later, with Bobby O'Rourke, our skate-boarding wanna be world leader:

New Google Technology Autocorrects Users' Thoughts

The Babylon Bee; surpassing CNN and MSNBC (fake news and proud of it!) as most trusted name in news. 

"MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA—At a special press conference held at the technology giant’s sprawling campus Tuesday, Google engineers revealed exciting new technology that autocorrects any errant thoughts its users are having, replacing them with positions approved by the company.

"Utilizing advanced retinal scan and proprietary telepathic scanning technology, the new automatic thought correction algorithm is now live for users of Google’s search engine, Android operating system, Chrome OS, and the hundreds of other apps and services the company provides.

“ 'Let’s say you start thinking there may be some kind of inherent biological difference between men and women,” Google employee Ryan Vo said in a live demo of the new tech. “Immediately, the thought suggestion program in any nearby Google device, app, or service will scrub the idea of inherent gender differences and replace them with the sure knowledge that there are at least three hundred different genders in existence, and always has been.”

“ 'Google will begin rebuilding your mind, piece by piece,” he added to the cheers and applause of the tech bloggers and industry professionals gathered.

"According to the spokesperson, Google is also utilizing crack teams of ex-military personnel to round up anyone who resists the new technology, taking them to a new portion of Google’s campus known as the “Department of Love” for questioning, reconditioning, and re-introduction into civilized society."

Calling Trump a 'Racist' -- Now a 2020 Dem Talking Point?  "The race is still young but certain requirements are quickly emerging for whoever will become the Democratic presidential nominee.
"A candidate must support some sort of universal health care. He or she needs a plan for gun control -- banning so-called assault weapons and demanding expanded background checks are the current preferred starting points. An aspiring president also has to have a plan for climate change (Green New Deal or equivalent).
"And something else may be required to become the party’s standard-bearer: The candidate who would take on President Trump in the general election must call him a racist during the primary.
" 'The Dems new weapon is actually their old weapon, one which they never cease to use when they are down, or run out of facts, RACISM!” Trump tweeted aboard Air Force One after visiting with survivors of the mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio." . . .

. . . "The entire left-wing media has now become nothing more than a hate machine that’s spreading its “daily hate” to radicalize left-wing Americans into an unprecedented level of hatred, insanity and violence.

"This is their plan. They are not journalists, and they aren’t covering the news. They are pushing maximum hate while hoping it will spark more violence.

We now know, for example, that the mass shooter in Dayton, Ohio had attended Antifa rallies and was motivated by left-wing talking points that were amplified by the left-wing media." . . .

Jeffrey Epstein dead, of purported ["Arkancide"]

Thomas Lifson  "A lot of very powerful Democrats are breathing sighs of relief. Dead men tell no tales, and the man whose tales could sink the reputations of and potentially incarcerate a slew of the most important political figures in the US (and a member of the British Royal Family) will be making no deals with prosecutors implicating bigger fish.

"The cynics who insisted that he would never live to bring down so many powerful people have been vindicated. Of course, we don’t know any details of his demise, so theoretically it is possible that he took his own life for purely personal psychological concerns.

"The death comes less than a day after a court unsealed a trove of over 2000 documents implicating even more powerful figures. Incuding this, via Mike Cernovich:

"That’s certainly a coincidence, isn’t it? Over the decades there have been so many people in a position to harm Bill and Hillary Clinton that [have] come to an [untimely] end that the word "Arkancide" has been invented."
