Trump Rally Goes Silent After He Attempts to Mock DeSantis

                                              

 Trump Rally Goes Silent After He Attempts to Mock DeSantis (resistthemainstream.com)  . . .“ 'So, he came, and he really wanted [my endorsement]. I said, ‘You can’t win, can you? How do you – can [you] win?'” Trump said, recalling the alleged conversation with DeSantis. “‘Sir, if you endorse me, I’ll win. Please, please, sir, endorse me,'” Trump continued as he acted out a crying, begging voice.

"While similar jabs against political opponents have been a hit with Trump’s crowds during past rallies, those in attendance were noticeably more silent as Trump took aim at DeSantis. Though some in the crowd could be heard laughing or clapping as Trump continued to be critical of DeSantis, the reaction of the crowd was much more silent than when Trump went after other targets, such as the mainstream media.

"DeSantis, who has yet to declare a 2024 White House bid, is largely regarded as Trump’s biggest rival in the Republican primary field. Having just won reelection in Florida in a landslide, many analysts have noted the governor’s growing national profile and popularity in the key swing state as a reason DeSantis could be a legitimate challenger to Trump.". . .

My problem with Joe isn't that he forgets what he's said and done, it's that he expects me to forget as well.

But first..What's behind the sudden media focus on Biden's big lies? (nypost.com)

Biden’s obsessive lies – small and large – are big trouble for America (nypost.com)  . . ."Look: You can show empathy without an actual shared experience. Insisting on making one up isn’t truly relating, it’s a calculated con job.

"It would be bad enough if Biden only told personal tall tales. But his reality distortion field now extends to national policy. He routinely insists “all the economists” back his plans, writes off inflation as a temporary spike, insists the border surge is just “seasonal,” even calls his disastrous Afghan bugout a “success” (while falsely claiming his generals didn’t object).

"Truth just doesn’t matter: He’ll say whatever he likes to get past the moment. He got away with it for most of his life because nobody bothers to fact-check a Delaware senator.

"Now he’s president, and his lies are going to hurt us all.". . .

Biden Blasted for Claiming GOP Would Slash Border Funding: 'Must Be a Parody' (resistthemainstream.com)  "Biden and Democrats blocked Republican efforts to hire 18,000 Border Patrol agents."

The Full List Of Every Lie Biden Has Told As President: 139 And Counting (thefederalist.com)  "One hundred thirty-nine lies and counting. One year into his time in the White House and the end to President Joe Biden’s lies is nowhere in sight. Here is part two of The Federalist’s rigorous coverage keeping the Biden administration accountable with substantive fact-checking throughout the president’s tenure. You can find part one of “The Full List Of Every Lie Joe Biden Has Told As President” here. 

"Biden, many members of the corrupt media, and other Democrats touted the false narrative that the people who entered the Capitol on Jan. 6 killed Capitol Police officers, including Brian Sicknick, but the medical examiner determined that he died of natural causes after the incident. The only person who did die during the Capitol riot was Ashli Babbitt who was shot by a cop.

Joe Biden's Top 15 Most Outlandish Lies (breitbart.com)  13) Gas Prices

Biden falsely claimed the price of gas is “down from over $5 when I took office.” The day before former President Donald Trump left office, the national average price of gas was $2.38. 

 Joe Biden: Our modern-day Walter Mitty   . . ."Walter Mitty’s got nothing on Joe Biden.  "For the record, I don’t like Donald Trump or Biden. Neither is an honorable man.

"But I do think our country was better off under the Trump administration than we are now. I just wish the news media reporting and editorializing was less biased and presented the whole story.". . .

Let's Face It: Joe Biden's Serial Lies and Embellishments About His Biography Are Shamelessly Weird (townhall.com)  . . ."What makes Biden's biography-related distortions and tall tales unique are their volume and frequency.  Take, for instance, Biden's unsubstantiated claims about not one, but two, arrests.  Some people might lie by denying they were arrested; Biden has wrongly claimed that he was arrested in contexts that make him seem progressive or heroic.  The most egregious example, stated multiple times, blew up in his face:. . .

“The rumor about alcohol being involved by either party, especially the truck driver (Dunn), is incorrect,” Herlihy said recently. Police determined that Biden’s first wife drove into the path of Dunn’s tractor-trailer, possibly because her head was turned and she didn’t see the oncoming truck. Dunn, who overturned his rig while swerving to avoid a collision, ran to the wrecked car and was the first to render assistance. Police filed no charges against Dunn...

"This man's family has spent years trying to get Biden to stop smearing their loved one.  The more you think about it, the more disturbing it seems.  Then there's the plagiarism scandal that helped derail his first presidential campaign in 1988.  Biden had 'angrily' denied the allegations before finally admitting to them.  And it wasn't just one lapse in judgment, either:

Who funds Antifa protests? We all do

"The cities, led by Democrats, don’t even bother to fight the cases, preferring to write a check."  Antifa should be labeled what it is — a hate group

 Who funds Antifa protests? We all do (nypost.com)  "Last week, the city of Philadelphia agreed to pay $9.25 million to 343 left-wing protesters who alleged they suffered “physical and emotional injuries” when police used tear gas and pepper spray to clear them off a major highway in downtown at a Black Lives Matter-style direct action in 2020.

"Videos recorded at the time showed the mob shut down the highway while vandalizing public property. 

"As a journalist who reports on the militant far-left and its rioters, the question I’m asked most often is, “Who funds them?”

"Some believe billionaire George Soros is responsible.

"And they would be partially correct. Soros funds groups that form part of the support apparatus of left-wing militants — district attorneys, biased media and legal groups.

"But his money doesn’t directly reach the pockets of militants on the street.

"Who ends up paying far-left rioters like Antifa? Too often, taxpayers like you and I.". . .

"Good questions. More to the point, how high must the body count get before action is taken against these terrorists?"

"When will they ever get designated legally as the domestic terrorists they are? How much more damage and violence must they commit?"

Victims of black crime matter, too

It’s time to remember that, among the lives that matter in America are those who find themselves victimized by the people who Black Lives Matter funds. We have a moral obligation to help them.
American Thinker   "Two black teenagers brutally attacked an Asian mother of three, causing severe physical damage. Once the news finally picked up on her story, generous Americans donated more than $300,000 to a fund for her medical care. "However, most victims of black crime are blacks, and few benefit from a GoFundMe. Worse, none benefit from the tens of millions of dollars that Black Lives Matter collected. That needs to change.". . . 


 . . ."I prayed about this situation at my peaceful and beautiful prayer place in rural Texas. I could not shake my sadness about Nhung Truong’s brutal assault and horrific injuries, and the desperate financial situation her family finds themselves in. Nor could I forget the desperate plight in which many black Americans find themselves trapped, their voices unheard, their sufferings unnoted, their murders ignored. In Chicago, 71 black victims have been shot and killed since January 1, 2023. Since these 71 people were victims of black criminals, BLM has not a tear to shed or dollar to give them.

"I asked God why do you permit this to happen? And I realized that God is in anguish over the situation his children find themselves in. He could change the situation in a second, yet that is not the way He works. Since the Fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, He has depended upon us to do our part to solve the problems that we face in the world. For him to stand back and permit these atrocities by evil persons is the most exasperating challenge he faces. Yet only that way can we, His beloved children, fulfill our responsibility and fully become the Children of God.". . .  Emphasis mine, TD

Do Joy Reid of MSNBC and her many guests, Sunny Hostin, and Whoopi Goldberg along with all the Soros-selected Districts Attorney and recently unelected mayors have any answers for this issue? TD

The Sweater (UPDATED: Sun 3/26)

UPDATE: Goalie declines to wear jersey celebrating LGBTQ community on Pride Night, takes heat - American Thinker

Surely he should be summarily shamed into repenting-- and apologizing-- for not being coerced into proclaiming the LGBTQ community to be more equal than any other. After all, almost every other person and entity in the Western world has been systemically cowed into doing just that. Why should he be any different? It’s maddening, really, his insubordination.  . . .

 . . ." So, should players be expected-- or even forced-- to wear a heterosexual-themed jersey if and when their team hosts a Heterosexual Pride Night? Should they be expected to don a jersey celebrating Catholic Pride? Capricorn Pride? Vegan Pride? Minor-attracted persons Pride? Conservative Republican Pride? How about “Polyamorous Pride?” “Jewish Pride?” “Canuck Pride?”

"Or perhaps a jersey sporting the message, “White Lives Matter?' ”

"The defenseman, who said he is Russian Orthodox, declined to go into further detail"


 Issues & Insights (issuesinsights.com)  "A couple of National Hockey League players have refused to be bullied into wearing pride jerseys during pregame warmups and much of the response has been madness – and worse. It’s another sign that Western culture is in a steep decline.

"In 1980’s “The Sweater,” an animated short that gets its title from the traditional term for a hockey jersey in Canada, a boy in Quebec accidentally receives a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey rather than the Montreal Canadiens No. 9 Maurice Richard jersey that his mother had ordered, and the jersey all his friends wear. As a Quebecois, he is humiliated by the Toronto jersey and benched by his coach. The peer pressure he feels to fit in is enormous.

"Now in the 2020s, the pressure from radical activists and the corporate cowards who take a knee to them at every opportunity is on players to wear jerseys during warmups that celebrate the ​​LGBTQIA+ community.

"But even in 2023, when so many among us are either part of the social bullying culture or so fearful of it that we’ve surrendered to it, there are still men of strength and principle. On Jan. 17, Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov declined to wear a pride jersey in warmups, citing his Christian (Russian Orthodox) beliefs. So he sat in the locker room, banished, while his teammates took their pre-game skate. 

“ 'I respect everybody, and I respect everybody’s choices,” Provorov said after the game. “My choice is to stay true to myself and my religion.”

He mistreated no one yet he was viciously maligned by those who self-identify as inclusive, tolerant, and righteously fair.

"However, within days, No. 9 Provorov game replica sweaters were selling out on the NHL Shop and at Fanatics, indicating that despite the hatred that was heaped on him – shameful hockey media hack E.J. Hradek suggested that Provorov return to Europe and “maybe get involved” in Russia’s war in Ukraine, while sports writer Cyd Zeigler huffed that “Proporov chose to embrace prejudice” – not just a few appreciated his position.

"Provorov even had support from Brad Polumbo, a libertarian-conservative journalist and the co-founder of BASED Politics – who also happens to be gay.". . .

Why Alvin Bragg’s case against Trump is falling apart

 The DA supposedly had his star witness, former Trump lawyer and proven liar Michael Cohen, ready to counter Costello’s claims — but it seems Costello surprised him with testimony Cohen couldn’t address. NY Post


Opinion by Jonathan Turley   . . .Alvin Bragg is looking to indict Donald Trump for paying off Stormy Daniels. Steven Hirsch"
"While an indictment was expected this week, the grand jury looking into former President Donald Trump will go another week amid reports of opposition in the grand jury over what is viewed as a “weak” case.
"The problem is that Bragg has long been searching for a crime in the criminal code to fulfill his pitch during his campaign that he was the man for voters who wanted to bag Trump.
"The falsification of business records in reference to the $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels might have been a possibility, but it lacked two things.". . .

"First, it expired as a chargeable misdemeanor after two years — and that was roughly five years ago.

"Second, it was a mere misdemeanor that could be brushed off by Trump even if they succeeded.

"Prosecutors then created a Rube Goldberg approach and suggested that the misdemeanor was committed to conceal a federal election law violation — a crime that the Justice Department declined to charge.

"That theory has been widely ridiculed, even by many on the left. The bootstrapping of a federal crime under this statute appears unprecedented and likely unsustainable.". . .

LGBTQ+ rights are core to America’s foreign policy -

 LGBTQ+ rights are core to America’s foreign policy - American Thinker  "Biden believes he is the embodiment of moral leadership, but when it comes to his positions on LGBTQ+, a good portion of the world sees America as an immoral hegemon, using cultural colonialism to threaten nations that don’t subscribe to what they see as extreme irreligious views. That’s why, when White House spokesperson John Kirby said LGBTQ+ rights are core to America’s foreign policy, he inadvertently shed light on why China is the new global powerbroker.

"When China makes inroads into countries that are not its own, its policy has been to avoid interfering in that country’s social policy questions. It willingly goes into countries that, per American standards, engage in human rights abuses.

"The Biden administration, however, believes that its cultural standards should be the world’s standards, something that is glaringly obvious when it comes to LGBTQ+ rights. Under the laws of most countries in Africa and the Middle East, and some in Southeast Asia, people who identify as LGBTQ+, and who act on that identification, are engaging in criminal activity.

"In 2022, Russia passed a law dubbed, “Answer to Blinken,” that basically criminalizes mentioning in any public space anything related to LGBTQ+. At the time, Putin accused the West’s position on LGBTQ+ of “moving towards open Satanism.' ”

Recent Lowlights in the Woke Capture of Our Once-Venerable Institutions

  The American Spectator

"Is the Left for free speech and an open exchange of ideas, or is it not?"

"Lamenting the astonishing success of the activist Left’s century-long Gramscian march through America’s major institutions is, at this juncture, old hat. Still, there have been a few recent powerful examples, coming in quick succession, illustrating the extent to which leading liberal institutions of civil society have been captured by far-left activist wokesters who take opportunistic advantage of their groups’ venerable reputations in an attempt to repurpose them for dubious ends.

"Take, for example, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, once one of the nation’s leading lights of the civil rights movement, which in recent decades has increasingly degenerated into a cesspool of grievance politics, intersectionality, race-tinged hucksterism, and crass Democratic Party politicking. This week, the Florida chapter of the NAACP asked its national board to issue a travel advisory against visiting the Sunshine State due to Gov. Ron DeSantis’ (R-FL) recent moves to, among other things, extirpate “diversity, equity and inclusion” racialist indoctrination from public universities and convince the College Board to drop asinine leftist indulgences such as “queer studies” from its model AP African American Studies curriculum. As DeSantis aptly summed it up at a press conference, when asked about the NAACP tiff: “What a joke!”

"Consider also the American Civil Liberties Union’s steady descent, in recent years, away from the free speech absolutism that was long a hallmark of the organization and which led it, back in 1978, to legally argue on behalf of neo-Nazi provocateurs who wanted to march in the heavily Jewish suburb of Skokie, Illinois. Not so much nowadays, as a 2021 New York Times headline put it: “Once a Bastion of Free Speech, the ACLU Faces an Identity Crisis: An organization that has defended the First Amendment rights of Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan is split by an internal debate over whether supporting progressive causes is more important.”

"The ACLU’s “internal debate” over whether to err on the side of free speech or progressivism was on full display recently at Stanford Law School. The school’s associate dean for DEI, Tirien Steinbach, who served as a high-ranking local ACLU official prior to her diversitycrat sinecure, was caught on video asking the ludicrous (and now viral and frequently “meme”-d) question of whether the “juice” of the heavily protested Judge Kyle Duncan’s right to speak freely was “worth the squeeze” of the “harm” his mere presence allegedly caused congregated students’ snowflake sensibilities. I also have some personal experience in the modern ACLU’s resistance to open debate: A few years back, I tried to organize a written debate on the hot-button topic of biological male (“transgender women”) athletes competing in women’s sports, and was rebuffed by the ACLU — an organization that has a whole section on its website dedicated to “transgender rights.' ”. . .

. . ."But someone who had a big part to do with it was the moron and toxic blight at Stanford whom they call the Assistant Dean for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Her name is Tirien Steinbach; I do not know whether she is named for the fictional dwarf by that name. At least a Lannister always pays his debts. These DEI deans are malignancies on the body academic, absolute poison. They get paid boatloads of money collected from overblown tuition, which saddles students and their parents with debt for life, to provide an ostensibly valuable service that my law degree, rabbinical degree, advanced history degree, and other educational attainments still leave me unable to fathom.

Biden Administration Unveils New Restrictions On Air Conditioners Despite Backlash Over Gas Stove Restrictions

 The Daily Wire

. . ." The Energy Department then unveiled forthcoming efficiency standards which would impact approximately “half of the total gas cooking top market.” Proposed regulations would introduce a new “maximum integrated annual energy consumption” standard for gas stoves, marking a change from previous regulations that prohibited constant burning pilot lights in gas stoves, but placed no limits on energy consumption. Officials noted that “products achieving these standard levels are already commercially available for all product classes covered by this proposal” and cited “important and robust” climate benefits in documents justifying the new rules.

"Some 38% of households in the United States use gas stoves for cooking, with the figure approaching 70% for states such as California and New Jersey, according to data from the Energy Information Administration. Those who use gas stoves often cite the easier temperature control offered by the appliances relative to electric alternatives.
