REALITY CHECK: Iranians Are Protesting, But They Aren't Protesting Trump - and the Media Can't Stand It

MRC  "The liberal media found enough time to peddle Iranian state propaganda claiming 30 American soldiers had been killed in Iran’s missile strike on U.S. bases in Iraq. The same media that ran photos of Soleimani’s funeral claiming to show thousands of attendees – attendees who, it later turned out, were forced by the government to attend. The same media that described Soleimani as a “war hero,” a “revered figure” and “an inspirational military leader.” 
"But apparently, the media were too busy sucking up to a dictatorial regime in the name of flipping off Trump to give much airtime to the pro-America, anti-government protests by Iranians who’re giving an awful lot of credit to Trump for taking down one of their most rancid, cancerous scumbags."

Bernie, who are the fascists now?

Hitler’s Bullyboys: The Role of the SA in Nazi Germany  . . . "The SA was instrumental in the Nazi’s rise to power and played a diminished role during the Second World War. The Brownshirts are infamous for their operation outside of the law and their violent intimidation of Germany’s leftists and Jewish population. It was the SA’s thuggish vigilantism, independence from the regular army, and anti-capitalist sentiments of its leader, Ernst Röhm, that were ultimately its undoing." . . .

Wait! Isn't this what Antifa does?


Bernie Bro on Everyone Who Is Against Sanders: 'You’re Going to Die for It, Motherf*cker  . . . "Ok, so it’s not as earth-shattering as PV’s excellent series on CNN, but it shows who we’re dealing with in the trenches of the 2020 election. There will probably be more videos like this, but at the same time, you can see why the Democratic establishment doesn’t want these folks gaining more prominence within the ranks of the party. Again, we shouldn’t be shocked that a) there are nutty people out there; and b) the Sanders operations hire such people. In terms of sexual harassment, Sanders’ 2016 campaign was totally infested with such a problem. It was a den of sexism and harassment that was not really addressed, and Sanders’ excuse was that he was too busy losing to Hillary Clinton to tackle it. I doubt Jurek will be purged, but it’s always good to keep tabs on people like this. they do the same against us and our totally radical ideas about…the Constitution, lower taxes, freedom, more jobs, and a strong economy. But we’re the extreme ones, right?" . . .

Iran state TV sees at least 2 news anchors quit: 'Forgive me for the 13 years I told you lies'
"At least two Iranian journalists at a state-owned media outlet reportedly resigned from their jobs, with one of them apologizing to viewers for "the 13 years I told you lies."
"As Tehran continues to grapple with the fallout from protests stemming from a cover-up of its accidental downing of a Ukrainian airliner, TV anchor Gelare Jabbari addressed her viewers on an Instagram post that appears to have been deleted.
“It was very hard for me to believe that our people have been killed," the post read, according to The Guardian. "Forgive me that I got to know this late. And forgive me for the 13 years I told you lies.”
"Two other news anchors at the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) thanked their supporters in separate statements." . . .



BARR SAYS DOJ WAS CONSULTED BEFORE SOLEIMANI STRIKE AS TRUMP GOES ON DEFENSIVE

Whoa! GOP does not have 51 votes to dismiss?

The Democrat Party of today is truly traitorous.  These people mean to destroy America as founded and remake it into their perverted version of an authoritarian, statist nightmare.
Patricia McCarthy  "How imbecilic are those Republicans trying to make a name for themselves by supporting the unconstitutional Schiff/Pelosi articles of impeachment?
"Beyond polite description.
"Susan Collins, Rob Portman, probably the self-serving Mitt Romney, are all trying to be the biggest monkey wrenches in an already ridiculous endeavor to remove President Trump from office.  Each of them should just admit he is a Democrat at heart and switch parties.  How else to explain their betrayal of their own party?  Poor judgment is one thing, like Matt Gaetz voting for Pelosi's meaningless resolution to limit Trump's ability to counteract Iran.  That was just dumb, a hopefully momentary lapse.  As for the rest of them, they are idiotic, masters of their own demise.  If they fail to realize that Donald Trump is the most successful, most popular president in decades, perhaps ever, they do not have the requisite brains to hold public office. 
"If they do not realize by now that the impeachment over a boring phone conversation with the president of Ukraine is as big a hoax as the Russia-collusion story from the outset, they are too dim to have any political power in the Republican Party.  Send them over to the Democrats where they belong.  While Republicans are often the stupid party, Democrats are the evil party; they support terrorists like Qassem Soleimani and brutal tyrannies like those in Iran and Venezuela.  Trump has trolled them into defending the indefensible." . . .

Who Will Betray Trump?



'Australia is on fire' because of 'climate change,' said the left. Turns out it was two dozen arsonists.

Michael Ramirez
The Blaze  "More than 180 people have been arrested in Australia for bushfire-related offenses — including 24 for arson — since November, the New South Wales Police Force announced in a news release Monday. 
"Of note, 24 people have been charged over alleged deliberately-lit bushfires, 53 people have had legal actions for allegedly failing to comply with a total fire ban, and 47 people have had legal actions for allegedly discarding a lighted cigarette or match on land," the release stated.
"Australia has been engulfed with flames since late July as part of the worst wildfire season in decades. The state of New South Wales has experienced the deaths of at least 18 people, the destruction of millions of animals, and the scorching of 4.9 million hectares of land.
"The fires prompted two Australian states — New South Wales and Queensland — to declare states of emergency last November. Since then, the fires have continued to worsen, eventually garnering international attention.
"Climate change? Not so fastThe news may come as a surprise to viewers of Sunday's Golden Globe Awards or followers of several candidates in the Democratic presidential field, as many on the left have insisted that man-made climate change was most certainly the cause of the Australian bushfire crisis. read more

Trump shows Democrats what a real "red line" is like

Via Michael Ramirez

The Right Red Line  "President Trump stated today that “Iran appears to be standing down” after its ineffective response attack to the United States’ killing of General Soleimani. Trump’s statement at the White House, so different from the inanities of social media, was restrained and confident.
"It’s almost enough to lead me to think that Donald Trump has picked an intelligent red line with Iran and defended it ably. He has repeatedly said that those who would harm Americans would be punished severely. After a series of escalations, Iran crossed that red line by firing on and killing a U.S. contractor and injuring personnel. Trump took the dramatic move of killing the author of so much harassment: General Soleimani. It was a limited and proportionate response. By targeting not just a general, but one who was himself a policymaker and military entrepreneur of sorts, Trump targeted a man responsible for Iran’s decisions to escalate, not just some random recruit. Doing so reestablished American escalation dominance.
"And now Trump is using Iran’s ineffective response to his action to confirm the reality of deescalation and invite more of it.
"This is a nice change-up from Obama’s approach to his Syrian red line. Obama announced that the use of chemical weapons would invite the end of the Syrian regime. He then publicized that they had done so, and never followed through directly on his grave threats. And yet, Obama still managed to get American forces and American honor ensnared in Syria’s long civil war." . . .

BREAKING and UPDATED: Project Veritas Drops Bombshell Hidden Camera Videos Exposing Bernie's Campaign

UPDATE: Bernie Campaigner Predicts Violence at DNC — Police Will Get ‘F***ing Beaten’  Just in time for tonight's debate. One caveat I have is that O'Keefe's expose' of CNN has been pretty much forgotten. TD
"Project Veritas released an undercover video that exposes the campaign behind Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
"In the video, a field organizer for Sen. Bernie Sanders warns that Milwaukee, which hosts this year’s Democratic National Convention, will “burn” and police will be “beaten” if Sanders loses the nomination.
"The individual identified as organizer Kyle Jurek said, “If Bernie doesn’t get the nomination or it goes to a second round at the DNC convention, f***ing Milwaukee will burn.' ” . . .




. . . "The undercover video released by Project Veritas also shows the campaign field organizer saying Soviet gulags were a positive phenomenon, suggesting that some similar program could re-educate Trump supporters and billionaires.
"Sanders organizer Kyle Jurek is asked if “MAGA people” could be re-educated if Sanders wins the White House.
“ 'We gotta try,” Jurek responded." . . .Later Jurek will say he was joking, but is he?" . . .

Coming out today and James O'Keefe will guest with Mark Steyn who fills in for Rush Limbaugh sometime this morning. TD

'Jeopardy' Question About Israel-Palestine Sends Liberals Over The Edge

Trending Politics  "Ever since the enactment of the Jerusalem Embassy Act, tit-for-tat tensions have been rising between those who support Israel and those who support the Palestinians.
"The hostility can even been seen in things as trite as a game show question." . . .


. . . "From The Hill:
Jeopardy!” has received a wave of backlash on social media after a contestant answered a question about where Bethlehem was located by saying Palestine and not Israel.The question was specifically about where the Church of the Nativity is located. During an episode of the show that aired last week, a contestant selected the “Where’s that church” category, which provided contestants with the clue: “Built in the 300s AD, the Church of the Nativity.”   Contestant Katie Needle buzzed in with Palestine as the answer shortly after host Alex Trebek read the clue. However, she was told her answer was wrong and was penalized with a $200 deduction from her overall cash score.Another contestant, Jack McGuire, then answered, “What is Israel?”“That’s it,” Trebek told McGuire as the contestant was awarded $200.
"So in what country is Bethlehem located?
"Sadly, the birth-country of the Israelite, Jesus, is now considered questionable regardless of how ridiculous it seems." . . .

'Jeopardy!' issues apology for ruling that the Church of the Nativity is located in Israel — and not Palestine
You can read more about the background courtesy of the Daily Mail here.
Christians recognize that the church, which is located in Bethlehem, is the birthplace of Jesus. According to Haaretz, the church has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site under "Palestine" since 2012.
Also, the Palestinian Authority does have direct control of the church and the city of Bethlehem and has since 1995. Israel still maintains control over access to tourist areas in the West Bank.

First, the purges: Comrade Chesa Boudin fires prosecutors for...prosecuting

What if San Francisco turns out to be a malignant tumor in the body of California?

Monica Showalter  "What would it be like if Hugo Chávez and Bill Ayers ran the city prosecutor's office?
"San Franciscans are about to find out, now that Ayers's stepson, Chesa Boudin, son of Weather Underground terrorists and translator to none other than Hugo himself, has made his first move as San Francisco district attorney.
"He's kicked off his term with purges for insufficient revolutionary fervor, taking a page from Andrei Vyshinsky, Stalin's famous show trial prosecutor who enforced ideological purity.
"According to KQED:
Just two days into his tenure as San Francisco's District Attorney, Chesa Boudin fired at least seven prosecuting attorneys. Boudin said the actions were necessary to carry out the progressive policies he campaigned on.
"I had to make difficult staffing decisions [Friday] in order to put in place a management team that will help me accomplish the work I committed to do for San Francisco," Boudin said in a statement.
It's not unusual for a newly elected district attorney to restructure the management team, said Lara Bazelon, a law professor at the University of San Francisco. The attorneys are at-will employees, which means they can be fired without reason.
. . .
"Stalin's society was all about keeping secrets, too, especially ideological secrets. San Francisco will now be the same. That must be some atmosphere they've got going in the San Francisco DA's office right now. Imagine being too afraid to express your thoughts as is no doubt the situation now with Chesa at the helm, that you refuse to say anything.

"Now that word is out that prosecuting crooks and targeting gangsters is a firing offense, San Francisco is all set for a great crime wave. Apparently it takes an iron-fisted Stalin or a Chavez to create that much chaos."

Why Is the Gay Presidential Candidate Silent about Iran Hanging Gays?

2006: hanging of 2 Iranian Teens
Daniel John Sobieski  . . . "Iran can do no wrong even if it goes against Democrats' core principles, if you can say they have any.  Mayor Pete is openly gay.  The irony here is that if he were running for president of Iran and not the United States he would most likely be hanged before the second presidential debate.  His silence is so remarkable since he is such a fierce advocate for the rights of the LGBTQXYZ community or whatever the politically correct identification is these days.
"Buttigieg, an Episcopalian whose church ordains gay and lesbian priests, has lectured Christians on their alleged hypocrisy and intolerance for opposing abortion on demand and gay "marriage" and believing homosexuality is a sin.  Some Catholics have been referred to as "cafeteria Catholics" for picking and choosing which doctrines to obey.  Episcopalian Pete must read his Bible through the distortion of a funhouse mirror, at least according to his evangelical brother-in-law's comments to the Washington Examiner:
The evangelical brother-in-law of Pete Buttigieg called on him to "repent" for using the Bible to justify late-term abortion and claimed the presidential candidate is "weaponizing" Christian teachings to promote a false religion.
. . .
By the way, Mayor Pete: Iran has alleged that a prominent singer is gay and under the Islamic Republic’s anti-homosexual laws he could face the death penalty.
According to a 2008 British WikiLeaks dispatch, Iran’s mullah regime has executed “between 4,000 and 6,000 gays and lesbians” since the Islamic Revolution in 1979.
In 2016, The Jerusalem Post reported that Iran’s regime had executed a gay adolescent that year – the first confirmed execution of someone convicted as a juvenile in the Islamic Republic.
Hassan Afshar, 19, was hanged in Arak Prison in Iran’s Markazi Province on July 18, 2016, after he was convicted of “forced male-to-male anal intercourse” in early 2015.
In 2011, Iran’s regime executed three Iranian men after being found guilty of charges related to homosexuality.
Mayor Pete, I do not think these people are mourning the death of General Soleimani

Venezuela Mourns Soleimani

Power Line  "For many years, people have commented on the seemingly-incongruous alliance between radical Muslims and Communists. In fact, however, there is no mystery: both are hostile to the values of advanced Western civilization and yearn for tyrannies that are not, in practice, particularly different from one another. Thus, while millions of Iranians are celebrating the demise of terrorist leader Qasem Soleimani, we shouldn’t be surprised that Venezuela’s Maduro regime is officially mourning him.
Iran’s FARS news service writes:
The Venezuelan government offered condolences to the people of Iran for the assassination of Iran’s top general by a US airstrike in Baghdad and praised Iran’s resistance with this poster.
"From left to right, the poster pictures Hugo Chavez, Simon Bolivar, Soleimani, Che Guevara and Fidel Castro:
 “Faces, times and countries change, but the goal is the same.”
. . . "One of these days, will “woke” American students walk around with pictures of Soleimani on their t-shirts? I wouldn’t rule it out. Guevara was just as bigoted and homicidal, if nowhere near as effective, as Soleimani."
