“Why? This is the hardest question of all to answer,” he continued “Why would a group of largely white, young and some middle age men destroy the livelihood of others who are struggling to get by?”
“My good faith efforts at de-escalation have been met with ongoing violence and even scorn from radical antifa and anarchists,” Wheeler added “In response it will be necessary to use additional tools and to push the limits of the tools we already have to bring the criminal destruction and violence to an end.” . . .
Conservatives need to embrace lawfare and bring suit against radical prosecutors, most of whom are funded by George Soros and are de facto rewriting the laws of their state.
. . . "While the Devil’s Advocate is fiction, we are seeing a very real variant on this strategy being carried out by the megalomaniac, George Soros. In 31 of our major state and city governments, from New York state and New York City to San Francisco and Los Angeles among others, Soros has funded the election of prosecutors who are imbued with race-centric social justice ethos and who are intent on altering society by imposing their toxic ideology.
"Every one of these Soros funded prosecutors is refusing, based on “racial justice,” to enforce laws passed by the legislatures in their states. Take, for instance, the recently elected District Attorney for Los Angeles California, George Gascon. Soros and a few other wealthy progressives, most of whom “lived far outside the county,” donated millions to Gascon, giving him twice the campaign funds of his rival. After winning the election in November, Gascon, in his first days in office, virtually did away with cash bail and sentencing enhancements, then nullified California’s “quality of life” laws as applied in Los Angles. This from RedState: . . ."

Many more people should be made aware of it and be talking about it. We should not be allowing the left to dictate and shut down the truth because they don’t like it being heard. And if that’s why Fox balked because of folks like Marie Harf and what the left might think, they better reevaluate quickly. Because if they want to go from “winning” as Faulkner said to losing, that’s the quickest way.
Gateway Pundit "Democrats are absolutely freaking out about the fact that some Republicans are planning to object to the certification of Joe Biden by the Electoral College.
"Not only did they spend the last four years freaking out about Trump, they have objected to the certification the last three times a Republican won the presidency.
"This is what they do but when Republicans do it, they act like it’s a threat to democracy.
Democrats Have Objected to Electoral Vote Certification For the Last 3 GOP Presidents
Democrats are outraged that Republicans are planning on objecting to the certification of electoral votes. It’s “conspiracy and fantasy,” says Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
“The effort by the sitting President of the United States to overturn the results is patently undemocratic,” the New York Democrat said. “The effort by others to amplify and burnish his ludicrous claims of fraud is equally revolting.”
“This is America. We have elections. We have results. We make arguments based on the fact and reason—not conspiracy and fantasy,” he added.
There’s only one problem with Chucky’s “argument based on fact and reason.” Democrats have been challenging the electoral vote certification for 2 decades.
The last three times a Republican has been elected president — Trump in 2016 and George W. Bush in both 2000 and 2004 — Democrats in the House have brought objections to the electoral votes in states the GOP nominee won. In early 2005 specifically, Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., along with Rep. Stephanie Tubbs, D-Ohio, objected to Bush’s 2004 electoral votes in Ohio.
2020 was a year of transformation, in many ways, even in the world of sports.
"Rather than rejecting the left wing radicalism of kneeling during the national anthem, pro-sports embraced the whole thing.
"It had a disastrous effect on ratings as millions of Americans simply turned off the TV or changed the channel.
"The year of the coronavirus was a major disaster for professional sports as every league suffered ratings declines, and lost billions in revenue in 2020.
"TV viewership was not off by just a little, either. It was off an average of 50 percent over last year’s numbers. Even though many Americans were stuck at home as their jobs and cities shut down, TV viewership for sports still cratered.
"According to Front Office Sports, one of golf’s big games, the U.S. Open, lost 56 percent of its viewers over 2019. Basketball suffered greatly, as well. The NBA finals were down 49 percent over last year. Tennis’ Open also cratered, losing 45 percent over 2019’s games. But the worst of all was Hockey’s Stanley Cup. The NHL’s big game lost a whopping sixty percent over the 2019 championship series.
"Thus far the NFL is also cratering, being down at least seven percent over last year. It has been so consistently bad this year that advertisers are starting to rise up to demand concessions for their high advertising spending since viewership has been falling each week." . . .
Years of anti-immigrant policies from the Trump administration have been magnified by insecurities resulting from the pandemic
"California’s most vulnerable immigrants have faced unprecedented challenges this year, with some weighing whether it’s worth staying in the United States altogether.
"Ten months of a pandemic that has disproportionately sickened immigrants and devastated some of the industries that rely on immigrant labor, combined with years of anti-immigrant policies by the Trump administration have exacerbated insecurities for undocumented people and immigrants working low-wage jobs across California.
"For immigrants at the bottom of the economic ladder, it’s never been easy in the US, said Luz Gallegos, the executive director of the immigrant advocacy group Training Occupational Development Educating Communities Legal Center (Todec).
“ 'But California was also always a place where my family – my parents and grandparents – believed they could build a better life,” said Gallegos who was born into a family of immigrant activists and organizers. “It was always a place with potential.”
"Until this year.

What is happening here is not inconsequential. It is part of a leftist push to change reality. People who can be taught to deny the evidence of their own eyes can be sold anything. If a person's sex is not fixed and real, then nothing else is real, either. The same government that is selling this kind of lie has created the power to force any other fiction down the public's throat. Andrea Widburg
The House of Representatives goes woke"One of the most despicable things the wokesters are pushing on America is "non-gendered language." It's one thing to do away with work-related descriptions that focus unnecessarily on a person's sex. For example, nobody sane cares if the person chairing a committee is a "chairman" or a "chairwoman." It's another thing entirely to do away with language that accurately describes a person's biological reality. A daughter is not a son and vice versa. Nevertheless, bowing before the radical gender lobby, the Democrat-led House is preparing to do just that.
"According to an announcement from Speaker Nancy Pelosi and James McGovern (D-Mass.), the Rules Committee chairman, the proposed rules for the 117th Congress will mandate that any words acknowledging biological reality will henceforth be forbidden. The Democrats didn't state matters so bluntly, but that's the import of the announcement." . . .

How the Proposed House Rules Package Continues the Left's 'War on the Family' . . . "Thanks to the leadership of Chairman McGovern and our Members, Democrats have crafted a package of unprecedented, bold reforms, which will make the House more accountable, transparent and effective in our work to meet the needs of the American people," Pelosi said in a statement. "These future-focused proposals reflect our priorities as a Caucus and as a Country – including crushing the coronavirus, addressing economic disparity, combating the climate crisis, advancing inclusion, and promoting integrity in government.”
"It’s bad enough that an alleged knife-wielding thug who slashes neighborhood women got to gallivant out of jail. But the story becomes downright enraging when we learn that Benjamin was already facing manslaughter charges — and the same judge let him out twice.
"On Christmas Eve 2019, young Benjamin and some of his mates allegedly took time out from their holiday festivities to assault Juan Fresnada, a 60-year-old Bronx man. They stomped on him and brained him with a garbage can. Fresnada died, and Benjamin and his crew got away with $1.
"In his brief career, Benjamin is already the beneficiary of multiple aspects of New York state’s criminal-justice “reform” measures, which our progressive leaders and professional activist class have hailed as “monumental” steps to “create a fairer and more humane” system, in the words of Mayor de Blasio." . . .
WTF, CNN, you have abdicated your responsibility and protection under the constitution. CNN should be shut down because of the bias, traitorousness, sedition and duplicity exhibited while President Trump has been in office.
"Democrat Joe Biden’s White House transition team has reportedly disabled the chat function on their Zoom virtual press conferences after invited journalists began complaining about the group’s lack of transparency.
"As The Daily Wire reported last week, reporters were becoming “frustrated” with the Biden team — and Joe Biden himself — because the team appeared to have a slate of favored journalists who were always called up on to ask questions during the team’s virtual press conferences.
"The “New York Times, CNN, Washington Post, PBS and Politico” were given the opportunity to ask questions of the team at nearly every press conference, while even mainstream media outlets like The Associated Press were shut out.
“ 'Hey guys, there tons of folks looking to ask questions and since this is being done once a week, could we PLEASE go longer or at least hold more frequent briefings,” a reporter from The Daily Beast said in the chat of a Zoom press conference held last week.
“ 'Any chance you can take a few more questions? There are a lot of folks here with questions,” Zeke Miller from The Associated Press added.
“ 'Is there a point in saying we want to ask questions if you only call on the same small group every week?” another asked.
"The system had a direct impact: Biden’s team rarely had to answer an unexpected question, particularly about touchy subjects, like an ongoing Department of Justice investigation into his son Hunter’s finances and foreign dealings. Biden has yet to answer questions on Hunter’s issues in any substantive way, and even then when questioned by late-night television hosts, not network reporters.
The committee would require Congress to “honor all gender identities by changing pronouns and familial relationships in the House rules to be gender neutral.” Democrats have made us a silly society
Democratic House speaker introduces radical new guidelines for Congress
"Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has introduced a radical new set of rules for Congress which includes a ban on "offensive""gender-focused"terms such as “father, mother, son, and daughter.”
"Pelosi and Rules Committee Chairman James McGovern (D-MA) unveiled the rules for the 117th Congress on Friday.
"The elimination of gendered terms is part of a set of “future-focused” proposals, the House Committee on Rules said in a statement.
“ 'This package, which will be introduced and voted on once the new Congress convenes, includes sweeping ethics reforms, increases accountability for the American people, and makes this House of Representatives the most inclusive in history,” the statement reads.
"Speaker Pelosi said she is “pleased to join Chairman Jim McGovern in introducing this visionary rules package."
"The new rules reflect "the views and values of the full range of our historically diverse House Democratic Majority,” she added.' " . . .
. . . However, aging doesn’t mean dead. We can buck the historic trend. It’s true that we have forgotten the ideals that once made us great, and replaced the “old normals” of liberty, individual responsibility, equality, and unity with the “new normals” of identity politics, wokeness, cancel culture, and critical race theory." . . .
George Gascón announced radical changes earlier this year
The newly installed George Soros-backed District Attorney George Gascón is being sued by The Association of Deputy District Attorneys (ADDA) of Los Angeles County over his recent order to ban prosecutors from enhanced prison sentences, and declining prosecutions for various crimes.
"Gascón announced radical changes earlier this year, including eliminating cash bail.
"Soros donated $1.5 million to the California Justice and Safety PAC, which backed Gascón.
"Gascón issued a ban on the death penalty and a prohibition on extended sentences for exacerbating circumstances, such as belonging to a gang or using a gun.
"Ongoing cases were affected by the new rules, like one involving a suspect charged with a double murder, which included that of L.A. Sherrif’s Deputy Gilbert Solano." . . .
Power Line"Voter fraud is a large and growing problem in the United States, and there is good reason to think that it exploded in 2020 on account of (among other things) unprecedented numbers of mail-in ballots and deliberately lax controls in many states. John Lott has now produced a statistical analysis that suggests substantial voter fraud in Fulton County, Georgia and Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Lott’s conclusion is that his analysis suggests a total of more than 55,000 fraudulent votes in those two counties. Lott’s paper is embedded below, and his statistical calculations are laid out in detail. You can evaluate them for yourself.
"Lott’s method is simple and rather elegant: he compares absentee votes in precincts in Fulton County, for example, with adjacent precincts in neighboring counties. He also controls for demographics. Since voting is done at the precinct level, while counting was done at the county level, and since there is no evident reason why precincts across the street from one another should show significantly different results, the approach makes sense." . . .
Voter Fraud Is Real. Here’s The Proof (Oct 13) . . . "So now that we know voter fraud is a serious issue, what are some solutions to this problem? States like Michigan have Poll Challenger programs, where observers from both parties may be present at voter check-in tables at precincts. They check each voter’s ID against a database of registered voters for that precinct to ensure the person attempting to vote is actually legally qualified to vote in that precinct. If there’s a discrepancy, the poll challenger may officially challenge the ballot. Other states should implement similar programs.
"States should sponsor initiatives to remove dead voters and correct the registrations of people registered in multiple states (make them choose just one state). Since many localjurisdictions are reluctant to clean their voter rolls, federal or state oversight with teeth may be necessary.
"Further, voter ID laws, such as the one implemented by North Carolina, but (wrongly) struck down by three liberal judges on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit— one appointed by Bill Clinton and the other two appointed by President Obama—are needed to ensure there’s no cheating with votes. States should continue to press the issue regardless of recent setbacks by liberal activist judges."...

Warren rails against oil and gas companies profiting from “pollution,” but it would appear she has no problem at all doing the same thing, even if it’s on a much smaller scale. Maybe a reporter should ask her at what financial point profiting from pollution becomes unacceptable? And in what way she thinks it acceptable for her to try to transfer “pollution” profits to her children just as she’s making a national name for herself as a green justice warrior?
Hirono is a well-documented nutter who thinks anti-Catholic smears (she attacked a federal judicial nominee for being part of the Knights of Columbus) are totes fine and that religious freedoms are part of “alt-right” ideology (she accused Sen. Sasse of embracing the alt-right).
