Future President Tulsi Gabbard plays ukulele in honor of Lord Krishna


Sounds like any Christian charismatic worship service I've ever heard, just a different god.

She's very beautiful.


Hank Paulson, who championed the crackpot TARP as Treasury Secretary under Bush 43, is a Christian Scientist

From the story:

But the reality of the existential crisis remained elusive to church officials. In 2005, Nathan Talbot and J Thomas Black, longtime church leaders who had promoted recklessly irresponsible policies encouraging the medical neglect of children, endorsed ambitious plans for raising the dead. Black argued that Eddy wanted to keep alive the possibility of defeating mortality, saying, “What would set us apart as a denomination more than raising the dead?” What indeed? Black himself has had ample opportunity to demonstrate it: he died in December 2011, and hasn’t been seen since. ...
 
So did the softening of some Christian Science attitudes suggest that the church was undergoing a genuine change of heart? Or were they trying to save their jobs, their pride and the institution? At that time, officials were grasping at relationships with ecumenical groups and New Age alternative healers – anything to boost membership. Shirley Paulson, for example, sister-in-law of former US treasury secretary Hank Paulson (also a Christian Scientist, taught by Nathan Talbot), contributed to a series of summit meetings – known as “Church Alive” – which sought to jazz up services with ideas fresh from the 1950s: reading from recent translations of the Bible (more recent than the King James version, that is), singing hymns a cappella, and urging Sunday School students to rap their narcotic weekly “Lesson Sermons”.

It's also pretty stupid that The Washington Examiner can't formulate the proper English phrase "to both him and his brother", but let's just focus on the fact that Joaquin is not now and never will be the phoenix rising from this clusterconflagration.

Black mothers' lives don't matter to Black Lives Matter, national media, Democrat Party obsessed with nearly non-existent "white supremacy"

'Total cowardice': 2 Chicago mothers killed in drive-by shooting while taking a stand against gun violence:

Grant and Stoudemire were members of Mothers Against Senseless Killings (MASK), a group that was formed in 2015 after three women were shot, one fatally, near the same street corner in the Englewood neighborhood, members of the group said.

"For mothers to be killed in a place where mothers go to seek safety and sisterhood, I take that as a personal threat," said Tamar Manasseh, 41, founder of the group. "Because when you come for one of us, you better believe they came for all of us."

Grant and Stoudemire were out helping to patrol the neighborhood Friday when just before 10 p.m., a blue SUV pulled up and someone inside opened fire, killing the women and leaving two men injured, including one whose arm was grazed by a bullet, Bown said. Police recovered multiple shell casings from the scene, she said.

 

Kenyan who overstayed his 2003 visa and married an American to escape deportation now suspected in 19 smothering deaths of elderly in nursing home

Dead white Antifa terrorists Willem Van Spronsen in Tacoma and Connor Betts in Dayton both embraced AOC's inflammatory concentration camp rhetoric

Nolte: Two Terrorists Embraced Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s ‘Concentration Camp’ Smear:

The real news is here is the establishment media’s shameless double standard. While the media are going crazy over the El Paso terrorist’s anti-Hispanic rhetoric and attempting to claim Trump was his inspiration, the very same media are dutifully covering up how two left-wing terrorists embraced Ocasio-Cortez’s inflammatory rhetoric.

Personally, I object to this kind of guilt-by-association. Watching the news media attempt to stifle free speech by connecting someone’s violence to another person’s speech is as un-American as it gets. But the media’s own rules do connect Ocasio-Cortez and two members of her Socialist Squad directly to these two terrorists.

I should add that it’s fascinating to watch the deep-in-denial media further destroy its own credibility by covering these facts up. The media know that we know the truth. The media know that the truth about Ocasio-Cortez  and these two terrorists is all over social and alternative media, but still they don’t care that we know because their partisan rage constantly overwhelms their decency and integrity.

All the media can do is rage against Trump, even with the “concentration camp” elephant in the room.

LOL: David French declares war on the mice in the walls of your country house

The idea that there are millions of alt-righters in America is preposterous. Red State's streiff in 2016 laughably came up with 1-3% of the population, as if that were a small number. But there is no way that the alt-right is as numerous as the LGBT population of the United States.

In the year 2000 the forerunner to today's alt-right, Patrick J. Buchanan, received just 0.43% of the popular vote, fewer than 500,000. And unlike David French or Richard Spencer, Pat was the likeable candidate!

David French is a Presbyterian. He has lit his hair on fire. That the recent shooters were white nationalists is kooky on its face. French is literally communicating hysteria.

Conservatism Inc. is deeply threatened by alternative ideas because it is uncertain of itself, even as alt-righter Richard Spencer is uncertain of himself. Both of them need an enemy, and both exaggerate its size.

There's more than Trump derangement syndrome afoot in the land.

The Las Vegas shooter got off 1100 rounds in 10 minutes, about 110 per minute, using multiple weapons with now banned bump stocks

Link.

BBC pulls monkeys out of their ass:



England's had 243 years to catch up on Americans and their guns, but they're still hopelessly benighted


World record with a revolving pistol is 12 rounds in 2.9 seconds, including the 6 round reload. Assuming ideal conditions, the world record holder's rate of fire per minute is 248, but would probably fall off dramatically from that due to the frequency of reloading. The same man with an AR-15 might be able to print 300 rounds a minute, but probably less due to reloading 10 times.

Maybe the Terminator T-1000 could pull an AR-15 rifle trigger 1200 times in a minute, but no human being could. And the T-1000 would quickly discover the weapon melting in his hands from the heat even if he could manage to change the 40 30-round magazines fast enough.

Typical rate of fire performance of the semi-automatic Armalite rifle is 12-15 rounds per minute. No automatic versions are legal to the general public in the United States.

The BBC pulled that graphic out of their ass.

Wall Street Journal admits economic conditions have shrunk as millions go into deep debt to stay in the middle class

Families Go Deep in Debt to Stay in the Middle Class :

Cars, college, houses and medical care have become steadily more costly, but incomes have been largely stagnant for two decades, despite a recent uptick.

Rush Limbaugh gets more out of touch with every passing day: "People like their health care from their employer"

Talk about delusional.

In my household we haven't had employer provided health insurance since 2008, but recently a new employer offered us some. My jaw hit the floor when I saw the price: $2,033 per month for family coverage.

Currently I pay $532 a month for family coverage, because I have a plan grandfathered in from pre-2010, which I get to keep as long as I don't make any changes to it. The new employer's plan is almost FOUR TIMES more expensive than what I'm paying now.

Compared to what I'm being offered by an employer right now my current plan looks mahvelous, right?

Well guess what it cost just eight years ago?

$227 a month.

That's right. Despite the fact I'm not hostage to Obamacare or employer provided insurance, my premiums have still risen 134% in eight years. And it would be even worse had I not raised the deductible. Needless to say, my coverage is nearly useless for office visits and routine tests; that's all 100% out of pocket, too.

But look at the scale of what's happened. The coverage I had in 2011 now costs me about two and half times as much as it did then, but this new employer plan costs NINE TIMES as much as privately purchased coverage cost me eight years ago.

That is insane.

OBAMACARE IS A CURSE AND A BLIGHT ON THE NATION, WHETHER YOU HAVE IT OR NOT, and Rush Limbaugh is as out of his mind as the Democrat hucksters trying to sell us Medicare for All or some other bottle of government elixir when he says people like their health care from their employer. They do not. The LA Times in May:

Health insurance deductibles soar, leaving Americans with unaffordable bills:

The 2010 healthcare law — often called Obamacare — provided landmark protections to Americans once shut out of health coverage. But as Democrats and Republicans fought over the law, Altman said, neither focused on the rapid run-up in costs for people covered through work. ... Over the same time, insurance premiums also increased, rising at more than double the rate of inflation and outpacing wage gains.

Full-time year-to-date July 2019 averages 50.18% of population, easily missing 2.4 million full-time jobs right now if this had been a normal post-1980 recovery: Welcome to the incredible shrunken economy


Meh: Total nonfarm payrolls increased 164,000 in July 2019

Average to date from November 2016 inclusive is 183,000 per month. Not a boom.

Clinton era average: 243,000 per month for eight straight years.

Reagan boom average: 248,000 per month for six years Nov 1982-Nov 1988.

Rush Limbaugh can't even get the differences between the Declaration and the Constitution right

He reveres them, just never reads them.

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness aren't in the preamble to the Constitution, not now, and not in 2009 when he first made the mistake:

We love and revere our founding documents, the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.
CROWD: (louder applause)
RUSH: We believe that the preamble to the Constitution contains an inarguable truth that we are all endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights, among them life.
CROWD: (cheers and applause)
RUSH: Liberty, Freedom.
CROWD: (wild cheering and applause)
RUSH: And the pursuit of happiness.

Hey Rush, you miserable grifting idiot, tell the British enemy in 1775 that the Continental Colors flag wasn't political

First hoisted on the colonial warship ALFRED in December 1775

And, see, we don’t think the flag is political. We don’t think the flag deserves equal time to people that don’t like it. We don’t think that Betsy Ross is political. We don’t think people need or deserve equal time to respond to Betsy Ross. These are symbols of our founding and our freedom and our liberty. They’re symbols. The left has politicized them, and they’re not political. They shouldn’t be by any stretch of the imagination. So we came up with the Stand Up for Betsy Ross T-shirt for people to push back — and in under three weeks, we sold enough $27 T-shirts to be able to donate $3 million and counting.

Trump today, bright and early: There is always plenty of time to cut

There's always plenty of time to cut spending, by definition, just not right now.

NEVER right now, always later. And when later comes, NEVER right now.

For wasted space, try between Damon Linker's ears

America is nothing if it is not about seeing how a presumptive candidate handles all the hyenas and how he fleshes out his positions and promises in response. America is entitled to form its opinion and express it in the form of actual votes taken at actual primary elections in actual places, like Iowa. What matters is representative democracy selecting the candidate, not the punditocracy.

It's always revealing to see progressives dismissive of the democratic process.
