They walked down the path toward her favorite spot.

Roger could not understand why, the closer they got, the slower dad walked, the more heavy his sighs became, the more freely his tears flowed. Somehow he felt guilty.
“I’m so sorry, daddy.”
Daddy was sobbing by the time they got to the tree where she awaited them, marked by the simple cross that bore her name: Janet Green 1987-2011.
“Oh Roger, you must never blame yourself. You’re the least *sob* guilty person of all.”
Daddy was on his knees. Instinctively Roger hugged him fiercly.
“I’m just glad you survived the crash.”

Yes, CNN Hates America

Posted on | June 14, 2018 | Comments Off on Yes, CNN Hates America

 

CNN became notorious as the “Clinton News Network” during the 2016 presidential campaign, when the third-place cable news channel was so completely in the tank for the Democrat nominee that their programming was like a 24/7 contribution-in-kind to the DNC.

Since CNN’s candidate lost the election, they have spent the past 18 months attempting to delegitimize and subvert President Trump’s administration by promoting the phony “Russian collusion” narrative.

The liberal media should be ashamed of themselves, but if they had any sense of shame, they wouldn’t be liberals, would they?

CNN covered itself with disgrace when President Trump traveled to Singapore for his historic summit meeting with North Korea’s dictator. The network aired 100% negative coverage of the summit, completely reversing its usual bias in favor of Communist dictatorships. CNN praised Obama for traveling to meet with Cuba’s Communist dictator in 2016, but when Trump met with Kim, CNN presented this as a catastrophic blunder. The Free Beacon reports:

CNN host Wolf Blitzer said on behalf of the media “we love the American people” on Wednesday in response to President Donald Trump’s latest broadside against the profession.
Apparently angered by the media’s coverage of his nuclear summit with North Korea, Trump tweeted Wednesday that the “fake news” press was “our country’s biggest enemy.”
CNN analyst David Gregory attacked Trump for being unoriginal, saying all politicians don’t like the press.
“Everybody’s always criticizing us and not happy with our coverage, whether it was President Clinton or President Bush or President—they’re all criticized,” Blitzer said.
Blitzer went on to say a lot of Trump’s supporters believed the charge, which was “a really, really awful situation.”
“We are not the enemy of the American people. We love the American people,” he said.

No you don’t, Mr. Blitzer. Your network relentlessly insults and degrades the American people. You have done everything in your power to undermine the constitutional government of this country, to smear and silence voices critical of the Democrat Party’s left-wing agenda.

CNN has never apologized for promoting the #BlackLivesMatter terrorist movement, ignoring the reality of crime and race in America.  Heather Mac Donald exposed this reality in her book The War on Cops, pointing out that a police officer is 18.5 times more likely to be killed by a black man than the other way around (see “Putting Homicide in Perspective vs. the Media’s ‘Atrocity Narrative’ Propaganda,” Oct. 3, 2017).  CNN’s 24/7 propaganda for #BlackLivesMatter incited riots in Ferguson, Baltimore and Charlotte, and the network never reported about George Soros’s sponsorship of this movement, which was calculated to demonize law enforcement and incite anti-white hatred. If CNN didn’t hate the American people, why did they devote so many resources to promoting this dishonest and divisive racial propaganda?

The American people have not forgotten what you did, Mr. Blitzer, and you should ask yourself: Why is Donald Trump president? Isn’t it because he gave millions of Americans an opportunity to wave their extended middle fingers in the faces of “fake news” hacks like you?

Tyler O’Neil Strives To Paint Corey Stewart As A White *YAWN* Supremacist

Posted on | June 13, 2018 | 1 Comment

by Smitty

Another primary, another strident nominee, another round of Seals & Crofts fans rushing to denounce the Terrifying Specter of a Republican Candidate with a Backbone.

Crimes:
1. “The candidate took an uncompromisingly positive position about symbols of the Confederacy during last year’s campaign.”
The statues had been there for generations. While communities should certainly be able to decide what they’re doing with their public spaces, come on. You got roped in by a left-wing propaganda play, Tyler.

I’ve only lived in Virginia for ~20 years. I lack any romantic connection to the Confederacy.

But I smelled rat, and it was coming from the Left, not the miniscule self-pity-party that is White Supremacy (which would wither completely if the media would give it a thorough ignoring.)

2. “When running for governor last year, Stewart hosted rallies in front of Confederate flags. At many of these rallies, activist Jason Kessler spoke. Kessler later became infamous as an organizer of the “Unite the Right” rally which sparked the white nationalist violence in Charlottesville.”
We need to get to three points and hit the target word count, so lets zoom in on the first charge and go for some guilt by association.

So what if few know who this guy is (I’ve never heard of him, and I flatter myself that I represent “reasonably” informed) if it’s important that Kessler be important so that important writers can make this point important–well, that’s important. Because its importance has been established.

3. “Also during his campaign for governor, Stewart paid Paul Nehlen $759 to rent his email list for fundraising. Video later surfaced showing Stewart praising Nehlen as one of his “personal heroes” and declaring that he was “inspired” by Nehlen’s challenge to House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.).”
Nehlen I have heard of. I was unaware of Nehlen’s high social- and social media crimes and misdemeanors:

Nehlen has associated himself with former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke, and has engaged white supremacist figures like Andrew Anglin of the Daily Stormer and “Crying Nazi” Christopher Cantwell.
Nehlen got himself banned from Twitter in February for using anti-Semitic language and for posting a photoshopped image of biracial actress Meghan Markle (now wife of Prince Harry). The tweet superimposed the face of Cheddar Man, a dark-skinned Mesolithic man believed to be one of the earliest humans in Britain, on Markle’s face. “Honey does this tie make my face look pale?” Nehlen disgustingly tweeted, with the image.

These are as impressive as people attacking BHO over his pastor, Jeremiah Wright, daming America. Sure, Wright deserves to be laughed at in public for laughable opinions, but this business of policing peoples’ associations, and insinuating that, welp, A was at event B, and so was C, and C knows D, and by the Transitive Power of Alinsky, Corey Stewart is some kind of Foaming H8-Monger. This is a good time to cut that nonsense out.

So, sorry, Tyler. Your post is worthwhile in the sense of raising something worth keeping an eye on. But the other 99% of it is pure concern trolling of a sort that has got to please Tim “Tiny Dancer”  Kaine, and for that you get no thanks.

Vote Corey Stewart

Stick a fork in politcal correctness

Report: Brett Kimberlin and DNC Staffer Helped Push ‘Russiagate’ to Feds

Posted on | June 13, 2018 | Comments Off on Report: Brett Kimberlin and DNC Staffer Helped Push ‘Russiagate’ to Feds

‘Speedway Bomber’ Brett Kimberlin was sentenced to 50 years in 1981

From the Populist TV Morning Report:

In an exclusive report, Lee Stranahan highlighted a Facebook post by operative Alexandra Chalupa made the day after the 2016 election where Chalupa said: “Homeland Security / DOJ teamed up with a group that is part of Anonymous based in Washington D.C. called “The Protectors.”
The alleged hacking group “The Protectors” is believed to actually be convicted serial bomber Brett Kimberlin, who worked with Chalupa during and after the election.
A 2012 story about The Protectors has more details on the sketchy claims about the group that Chalupa said worked with the Obama administration.

If you don’t follow Stranahan on Twitter, you may have missed this important news, which Lee livestreamed via Periscope.

Before he went live on Twitter with this report, Lee called me to explain what he had discovered. Alexandra Chalupa was a DNC staffer who left that job in summer 2016 to focus full-time on the Trump/Russia angle. Her association with Kimberlin was reported in 2017. Yet until Lee started poking around, no one seems to have caught the significance of her Facebook post, in which she asserted that “The Protectors” (apparently an online front for Kimberlin’s tax-exempt Justice Through Music Project, and likely involving Neal Rauhauser) had “teamed up” with federal agencies to encourage investigation of the phony Russian “collusion” narrative. Such a connection, if proven, would almost certainly be of interest to current DOJ officials trying to get to the bottom of so-called “Deep State” efforts by federal employees to sabotage the Trump administration. Expect more news about this.

UPDATE: Linked by Vox Day — thanks!

‘Operation Broken Heart’: Feds Bust More Than 2,300 Online Sexual Predators

Posted on | June 12, 2018 | 1 Comment

Department of Justice press release:

The Department of Justice today announced the arrest of more than 2,300 suspected online child sex offenders during a three-month, nationwide, operation conducted by Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task forces. The task forces identified 195 offenders who either produced child pornography or committed child sexual abuse, and 383 children who suffered recent, ongoing, or historical sexual abuse or production of child pornography.
The 61 ICAC task forces, located in all 50 states and comprised of more than 4,500 federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement agencies, led the coordinated operation known as “Broken Heart” during the months of March, April, and May 2018. During the course of the operation, the task forces investigated more than 25,200 complaints of technology-facilitated crimes against children and delivered more than 3,700 presentations on Internet safety to over 390,000 youth and adults.
“No child should ever have to endure sexual abuse,” Attorney General Jeff Sessions said. “And yet, in recent years, certain forms of modern technology have facilitated the spread of child pornography and created greater incentives for its production. We at the Department of Justice are determined to strike back against these repugnant crimes. It is shocking and very sad that in this one operation, we have arrested more than 2,300 alleged child predators and investigated some 25,200 sexual abuse complaints. Any would-be criminal should be warned: this Department will remain relentless in hunting down those who victimize our children.”
The operation targeted suspects who: (1) produce, distribute, receive and possess child pornography; (2) engage in online enticement of children for sexual purposes; (3) engage in the sex trafficking of children; and (4) travel across state lines or to foreign countries and sexually abuse children.

(Hat-tip: An Open Secret on Twitter.)

UPDATE: Among those arrested in this federal sweep was a Maryland man who was an employee of the U.S. Secret Service.
