These people disgust me, portraying Pete Hegseth as a victim when he's a predator

 

 

 While citizens and the Senate should vet Hegseth’s qualifications to be Secretary of Defense, among the issues assessed should not be this claimed sexual assault.

The media appear, however, determined to parrot the allegation, without even superficial scrutiny, reminiscent of their failings regarding Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh. While the admirably restrained Hegseth stays quiet, good citizens should voice strong disapproval of a legacy media whose partisan reporting interferes with the good government processes a democracy requires.

Link.

Pete Hegseth was a drunken bum cheating on his baby mama with a married woman in this incident, that's what this is about, and he neglected to inform Donald Trump about it when he was nominated for Secretary of Defense.

That Hegseth is untrustworthy is only underscored by the fact that he cheated on wife number one, cheated on wife number two with his baby mama, whom he impregnated while still married to wife number two, and cheated on his baby mama with a married woman in this incident.

This disgusting piece of trash is more reprehensible than Donald Trump, if that's even possible.

US Senate Republicans should let it be known now that Hegseth will be slowly roasted in front of the television cameras for all to see.

He cannot be allowed to be a role model to any young man seeking to join the US military, unless you want an army like the sex-obsessed Russian army.

WaPo defends rule of law in Pennsylvania, says Democrat defiance of judicial election rulings is corrosive to democracy

 ... elected Democratic officials in Philadelphia and three other counties — Bucks, Centre and Montgomery — voted this week to defy these and other court decisions at the request of lawyers for Democratic Sen. Bob Casey ...

Mr. Casey has almost certainly lost this race. The Associated Press called it for Mr. McCormick on Nov. 7. Mr. Casey’s deficit still appears insurmountable. The three-term incumbent sees it differently and has every right to plead his case in court. State law also entitles Mr. Casey to a statewide recount because Mr. McCormick’s margin of victory is smaller than half a percentage point, though not by much. A recount is unlikely to change the outcome.

THE CHUTZPAH OF THE INGRATES!: Kamala Harris blew through $1 billion in 107 days and ended up $20 million in debt, DNC official echoes the new lie from Pelosi, BLAMES JOE BIDEN after THEY pushed him out

 Just think what Kamala could have done for the whole country, and how quickly!

And look how Nancy Pelosi's new lyin' narrative (he dropped out too late) becomes the official Democrat take after they pushed him out.

 

Alex Miller: DNC official calls Harris campaign a ‘$1 billion disaster’ :

 

  Democratic National Committee finance member Lindy Li trashed Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed bid for the White House, calling her loss to President-elect Donald Trump a “$1 billion disaster.” 

Ms. Li told “Fox & Friends” on Saturday that she and other Democrats feel that Campaign Chairwoman Jen O’Malley Dillon “misled” them into wasting millions of dollars. 

“The truth is, this is just an epic disaster — this is a $1 billion disaster,” Ms. Li said. “They’re $20 million or $18 million in debt. It’s incredible, and I raised millions of that.” 

She added, “I have friends I have to be accountable and explain things to because I told them it was a margin-of-error race. I was promised, Jen O’Malley Dillon promised all of us that Harris would win. She even put videos out saying Harris would win. I believed her, my donors believed her, and so they wrote massive checks.”

Mr. Trump’s resounding victory over Ms. Harris has had Democrats searching for what went wrong.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat, blamed President Biden for Tuesday’s blowout loss because of his late exit from the race in July. 

She argued that if Democrats had an open primary to find a new party nominee, the election outcome might have been different. 

Ms. Li made a similar argument, that if Democrats truly viewed Mr. Trump as a threat to democracy and the country, they would have allowed for an open process to find a successor “instead of just coronating somebody.”

Mr. Biden’s decision to endorse Ms. Harris quickly shuttered that possibility, she said. 

“I actually think President Biden, the whole endorsing her 30 minutes after he dropped out, I think that was a big ‘F you’ to the party. ‘If you don’t want me, here’s somebody you may not like, deal with it,’” Ms. Li said.          

Nancy Pelosi, June 30th, defending President Applesauce-brains, right after Joe's disastrous debate with Trump:

"We know how attuned he is to the issues, we know how informed he is. I debate with him about the issues, not debate, but discuss it with him. He‘s right there."

Nancy Pelosi, September 18th, pushing back on the Kamala coronation: 

"We had an open primary and she won it. Nobody else got in the race."

 

"Yeah, F you."

 

 

Extremely amusing: Democrats tried to frighten the voters that Trump is a threat to democracy, so the voters voted for Trump

 

Democracy is an everlasting reproach to politicks

 It would be an everlasting reproach to politicks, should such men overturn an establishment formed by the wisest laws, and supported by the ablest heads.

Harris-Walz campaign uses anti-democratic tactics against the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in the name of saving democracy

 In Philadelphia on Aug. 6, an enormous crowd of supporters exulted in the announcement of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate for the White House. But at the same time, another much quieter drama unfolded: A reporter for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the second-largest news organization in the most important battleground state, was being denied access to the venue. ...

The Harris-Walz campaign continues to take measures to exclude Post-Gazette reporters and photographers from its events due to an ongoing, and very unusual, labor action at the newspaper. The journalists’ strike is unusual because it has gone on so long — nearly two years, making it the longest ongoing strike in America — but also because it has only ever attracted the support of a small minority of the bargaining unit. ... the more anti-democratic tactics we tolerate in the name of saving democracy, the less democracy there will be left to save.

Democrat former chief counsel to the House Judiciary Committee says Harris cocooning herself is an affront to democracy

 

If the polling errors favoring Democrats in 2020 and 2016 persist, then Trump is probably still in the lead.

Further, the focus of the fall campaign will increasingly move from “joy” to policy — and Trump leads on most issues because of a Biden-Harris record of which most voters disapprove.

The cocooning of Harris is an affront to the transparent principles of democracy. It invites a return of the Bush-era chicken mascots.

Most importantly, it feels dangerously close to a reprise of the failed 1988 Mike Dukakis presidential campaign that never came out of its left-leaning bunker.

Le Monde: Macron has spent the summer in denial of his defeat, the lumpen left has spent it failing to build a coalition to govern

 The president's justification for this decision is that the other political groups consulted would have quickly overthrown the new government. ... In the absence of any other obvious possibility, it would have been in the interest of democracy for the president to allow the experiment to unfold instead of trying to assert control at all costs in the hope of preserving his policy for as long as possible, even after it has been outvoted. ...

[Macron] has never acted like the clear loser of this election, nor has he clearly accepted the principle of cohabitation.

Kamala Harris' crime

 Kamala Harris' crime was failure to inform the American people of Joe Biden's mental incapacity, and to invoke the 25th Amendment with the pledge that she would not run for president.

Once again the Constitution is shown to be a worthless barrier of parchment, whose only power to maintain freedom comes from those who assent to it and enforce it. The former is meaningless without the latter.

Invoked a year ago, her candidacy by approbation today would have legitimacy. As it is, it does not.

Instead she kept silent until just the right moment, in order to grasp the ring presented to her by a political party which cared nothing for the primary votes of millions of Joe Biden's supporters.

Democracy has been murdered in broad daylight by Democrats, and y'all just stand by and film it.

She is a usurper, a power hungry snake, without an ounce of integrity.

You will rue the day you elect her president.

O baseness to support a tyrant throne,

And crush your freeborn brethren of the world!

Nay, to become a part of usurpation,

T' espouse the tyrant's person and her crimes.

Wow Anita Dunn drops a bomb on Nancy Pelosi and the donor class, says they bullied Joe Biden out of the race and ignored the primary process and the will of the voters

DUNN: ... I went to Wisconsin with him for an event, and people felt very strongly about the bullying. They didn’t like it and voters didn’t like it. They felt that it was unfair and that it was wrong. ... clearly there were leaders of the party who decided to go ahead and go very public. And that gave permission to other people to go public.

POLITICO: Are you talking about senators and House members? Or do you mean like when Nancy Pelosi goes on TV twice when things feel like they’re dying down and reopens the debate?

DUNN: Absolutely. ... you had this decision that the Democratic Party made to ignore their primary voters and ignore their primary process, and that was a very donor-driven thing.

Jonathan Turley: The addition of Walz completes a perfect nightmare for free speech advocates

 Walz has shown not only a shocking disregard for free speech values but an equally shocking lack of understanding of the First Amendment.

Walz went on MSNBC to support censoring disinformation and declared, “There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech, and especially around our democracy.”

Ironically, this false claim, repeated by many Democrats, constitutes one of the most dangerous forms of disinformation. ...

The Supreme Court has consistently rejected the claim of Gov. Walz. For example, in the 2016 Matal v. Tam decision, the court stressed that this precise position “strikes at the heart of the First Amendment. Speech that demeans on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, disability, or any other similar ground is hateful; but the proudest boast of our free speech jurisprudence is that we protect the freedom to express ‘the thought that we hate.'” ...

In her failed 2020 presidential bid, Harris ran on censorship . . ..

President Biden is the most anti-free speech president since John Adams. ...

Democrats now have arguably the most anti-free speech ticket of a major party in more than two centuries.

 

The Hill

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are a threat to the First Amendment

 

Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) may have been a social studies teacher, but he would have failed Constitutional Law 101, especially the part about the First Amendment.

“There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech and especially around our democracy,” Walz said on MSNBC in December 2022, which would be news to the Supreme Court, which unanimously held as recently as 2017 that “speech that demeans on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, disability, or any other similar ground” is still protected by the First Amendment.

Walz’s impulse to censor speech he does not like is most definitely shared by his running mate, Vice President Kamala Harris, who pushed for Twitter and Facebook to censor then-President Donald Trump even before the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. In Iowa, on Oct. 19, 2019, Harris told Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, “This is not a matter of free speech. … This is a matter of holding corporate America and these Big Tech companies responsible and accountable for what they are facilitating.”

Harris’s anti-free speech position was so extreme that even Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) pushed back, saying she wanted to kick Trump only out of the White House, not off social media. But politburo secretariat officer Kamala did not back down. “I’m calling on everyone to join me,” she said.

By 2019, Harris already had a well-established history of using government power to silence voices she does not like.

Read how she, oopsie, published the private data she collected as Attorney General of California online here.

She's a doxxer.

CNN: Kamala Harris repeatedly supported the violent "Defund the Police" movement in the streets in June 2020 on the radio, MSNBC, The View, and Good Morning America, and then clammed-up about it

 She's the violent threat to democracy they claim Trump to be.

“This whole movement is about rightly saying, we need to take a look at these budgets and figure out whether it reflects the right priorities,” Harris said on a New York-based radio program “Ebro in the Morning” on June 9, 2020, adding that US cities were “militarizing police” but “defunding public schools.”...

In an interview a day earlier, Harris also lauded Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti for his decision to slash $150 million from the police budget and move it into social services. ...

“We need to have this conversation and critically examine and understand this is not working,” Harris said on “Ebro in the Morning.” “It’s not working. So, this is an important conversation and not just a conversation – cause to your earlier point, can’t just be about talk. It has to be about forcing change.”

“And this is why, you know, I was out there with folks and we’ll, any movement, any progress we have gained has been because people took to the streets,” Harris added. 

A day before her “Ebro in the Morning” radio interview, Harris appeared on MSNBC where she explicitly called to “demilitarize police departments” and said it was “backward” to think more police officers created more safety.

“Part of what we have to do here is also look at the militarization of police departments and, and the kind of money that is going to that. And we need to demilitarize police departments,” Harris said. “At its core, one of the issues that I think we should all agree on is that it is old thinking. It is outdated and is actually wrong and backward to think that more police officers will create more safety.”

In another interview on “The View” on June 8, 2020, Harris engaged in an exchange on defunding the police where she directly suggested the funding for police could be used in other social programs.

“In many cities in America, over one third of their city budget goes to police. So, we have to have this conversation. What are we doing? What about the money going to social services? What about the money going to helping people with job training? What about helping with the mental health issues that communities are being plagued with for which we’re putting no resources?”

Also on June 8, 2020, Harris praised the mayor of Los Angeles for removing money from police and investing it in social services in an interview on “Good Morning America." 

“I applaud Eric Garcetti for doing what he’s done,” she said. ...

After June 2020, Harris rarely if at all mentioned the “defund the police” movement. The Biden campaign later tried to clarify after adding her to the ticket that she supported funding the police. ...

Political Candidates Should Be Chosen Democratically

What was that again about Republicans being a threat to democracy?

Delegates to the Democratic Convention in Chicago can't speak freely in the Democrat Party for fear of being removed by the gang leaders

 

 The fix was in already on Sunday after Biden withdrew and endorsed Kamala Harris. 

All 50 state chairs of the party quickly asserted their endorsement of Harris, according to Reuters.

But the blessed GRAUNIAD found out the truth: Delegates who aren't down for the Harris Cause fear having their delegate status revoked by those state chairs.

It's a gang, not democracy.

Delegates are, by and large, local volunteers expected to spend thousands of dollars to fly to Chicago and attend the convention. It’s often viewed as a reward for activism and dedication, but it’s typically a far less consequential role than it might be next month.

One delegate who isn’t yet old enough to drink expressed his mounting anxiety about how things are unfolding and how little has been predictable.

“I’m a young, young person,” said the delegate, who requested anonymity because he feared being replaced by his state chair. “This is my first convention … And this is scary. It’s super anxiety-inducing, and crazy, and so much.”

President who labeled half of the country extremists now appeals for unity

 “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic,” Mr. Biden said in a fiery Independence Hall speech on Sept. 1, 2022, looking to shape the midterm elections. “And here, in my view, is what is true: MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution. They do not believe in the rule of law. They do not recognize the will of the people.”

He continued: “MAGA Republicans have made their choice. They embrace anger. They thrive on chaos. They live not in the light of truth but in the shadow of lies. And yet history tells us that blind loyalty to a single leader and a willingness to engage in political violence is fatal to democracy.” ...

“Not since President Lincoln and the Civil War have freedom and democracy been under assault here at home as they are today,” he lamented. “What makes our moment rare is that freedom and democracy are under attack, both at home and overseas, at the very same time.”
