Random links of interest, concern or curiosity from the past week or so, that deserve at least a SHORT mention:
Antifa Attacks GOP Headquarters in NYC, Warns ‘Merely the Beginning’ ~ Yes, it was merely the beginning. Here’s more ~ Multiple Republican Offices Across the Country Vandalized by Unhinged Leftists ~
Amid calls for “in your face” incivility from leading Democrats, multiple Republican offices have been vandalized across the country ahead of the midterm elections.
China’s Freaky Treatment Of Megastar Fan Bingbing Proves Communism Is Still Viciously Kicking ~ A cautionary tale: this is what life would be like here in the U.S. under the increasingly intolerant Left. (Keep in mind, the pope just capitulated to these totalitarians.) ~
Anyone who admires China and thinks today’s China is an open and free society, unlike the Communist China under Chairman Mao, should read Fan’s letter word for word. It’s a sad, pathetic and painful read […]
Why should we care what happened to a Chinese actress? Whether you are a Chinese or an American, tax evasion is bad and illegal. But what’s troubling in how the Fan Bingbing case was handled by Chinese authorities — the lack of due process, lack of transparency, and the authorities’ demand of thought-control.
The last couple weeks, we have witnessed similarities in how the Democrats handled Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s sexual assault accusation: the lack of due process, lack of transparency, the complete abandonment of the presumption of innocence until proven guilty, and the left’s demand of thought-control. The saga of Kavanaugh’s confirmation is a chilling reminder that we are not that far off from totalitarianism.
Sounds like the U.K. isn’t far behind ~ British Army Investigating Soldiers Who Posed for Photo with Tommy Robinson ~ Wow. Somewhere in hell Stalin is smiling at this iron-fisted government ~
The British Army released a statement on the incident shortly after implying the military’s view is that Tommy Robinson himself has a “Far-right ideology [which is] completely at odds with the values and ethos of the armed forces”.
Mr Robinson himself issued a statement Wednesday morning denying that allegation, stating: “Islam is not a race and it is more than a religion, it is a political ideology… I have fairly central views, have not mentioned race in any form in over 10 years of activism.”
Shock report: US paying more for illegal immigrant births than Trump’s wall ~
The new report reveals that women in the United States illegally had 297,000 children in 2014 at a cost of $2.4 billion. That is $800 million more than the Senate has approved for Trump’s border wall this year and enough to pay for the wall over 10 years.
Three Lies Taylor Swift Told About Marsha Blackburn ~ Because the truth never works for the Left ~
On Sunday night, pop singer Taylor Swift announced her opposition to Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), citing mostly LGBT issues. In these attacks, she misrepresented Blackburn’s positions, painting the Republican candidate for Senate as a bigot and a “hater.” […]
Taylor Swift’s false attacks on Blackburn will get headlines and set the chattering classes a-chatter. But they won’t likely move the needle in the Tennessee governor’s race. Even so, it is disappointing for Taylor Swift — long known for her silence on political issues — to jump headlong into a political battle with false attacks.
So far it seems folks aren’t swayed ~ Marsha Blackburn Up In Latest Tennessee Senate Poll ~
The latest political polling in Tennessee shows GOP Senate candidate Marsha Blackburn with a solid 14-point lead over her Democratic challenger, former Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen […]
Although anything can happen in politics, it seems like Bredesen is engaging in an uphill battle. While the self-described conservative Democrat was the only Democratic Senate candidate to publicly endorse the confirmation of President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, an undercover Project Veritas video released Wednesday night appears to show Bredesen staffers admitting that the endorsement was essentially a ruse to attract moderate Republicans.
At the risk of repeating myself 😀 the truth never works for the Left!
Sen. Collins describes illegal bribes and threats of liberal groups that tried to buy her and it’s jolting ~ Extortion – all part of the left’s unethical tactics ~
“This is a classic quid pro quo as defined in our bribery laws,” (Collins) said.
“They are asking me to perform an official act and if I do not do what they want, $2 million plus is going to go to my opponent,” she added. “I think that if our politics has come to the point where people are trying to buy votes and buy positions, then we are in a very sad place.”
Ignored History: Columbus Sought to End Islamic Tyranny ~ Every time Columbus Day rolls around, progressives try to denigrate the man and his motives – with falsehoods
As we celebrate Columbus Day — for those of us still inoculated enough against cultural relativist depravity to do so — it is also worth recapturing concretely the specific late 15th century religious motivations for Columbus’ voyage. Simply put, Columbus sought “eastern (even far eastern) alliances” to end a millennium of Islam’s jihad-imposed tyranny against Christendom. Louis Bertrand’s scholarly 1934 tome, The History of Spain, elegantly — and unapologetically — characterized the now well-nigh forgotten, or ignored, historical context.
Democratic fundraiser says America is racist and sexist, ‘F–k the bible voters’ ~ A couple “centrist” Dems hoping to win in their respective conservative districts must be desperate for fundraising sponsors. Laura Gassner Otting is a real charmer 
– and about as far to the left as they come.
Fusion GPS Founder Will Plead The Fifth To Avoid Testifying To Congress ~ The Russian Collusion story has certainly faded from the news cycle… Maybe because the whole narrative is proving to be the scam it always was?
Glenn Simpson’s firm, Fusion GPS, was hired during the 2016 presidential campaign by the law firm that represented the DNC and Clinton campaign. Fusion GPS hired former British spy Christopher Steele to conduct an investigation into Donald Trump’s possible links to Russia. The result of the probe was a 35-page report alleging collusion between the Trump campaign and Kremlin.
Trans activists demand everyone be pro-LGBT – at the expense of reality ~ Jonathon van Maren At Life Site discusses the extreme self-centeredness of the movement and the troubling implications that has for society at large.
The Radical Democrats of the Senate Judiciary Committee ~ Trevor Loudon provides background on these leftists; (Lots of communist connections here!) Feinstein, Leahy, Durbin, Coons, Blumenthal, Booker, and of course the new progressive darling from Hawaii, Mazie Hirono. Which explains precisely why the hearing for Judge Kavanaugh was such a circus ~
These Democratic senators would struggle to pass any form of basic background check to get even the lowest form of security clearance.
They are partisans who demonstrably don’t hesitate to put their own political agendas ahead of their duties to the Constitution and the American public.
Trump’s list: 289 accomplishments in just 20 months, ‘relentless’ promise-keeping Impressive. This should convince all but the angry mobsters to #WalkAway ~
As Trump nears the two-year mark of his historic election and conducts political rallies around the country, during which he talks up his wins in hopes it will energize Republican voters, the administration has counted up 289 accomplishments in 18 categories, capped by the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
