Month: December 2019

In an interview with Daily Beast contributor Molly Jong-Fast, the “lovely” Lisa Page insists she’s not even close to being a criminal.  Jong-Fast agrees.  How dare the poor, abused woman be put through this “MAGA meat grinder” for merely exercising her First Amendment right to hate the president?

Page couldn’t have chosen a better shoulder to cry on than Jong-Fast’s.  The daughter of sex-obsessed author Erica Jong  and granddaughter of communist writer Howard Fast, she offers Page a safe space to break her silence — away from “orange man bad,” away from invisible MAGA hat-wearing D.C. residents, and away from the DOJ officials who betrayed her.  Page is no criminal, writes Jong-Fast; her private texts were “hijacked by Trump to fuel his deep state conspiracy.”

Jong-Fast feels Page’s pain.  She should.  The pair share the same entitlement elitist sentiments.  Jong-Fast knows the horror of living on the same planet with the ordinary  common ruck who seriously think the laws that apply to them also apply to the chosen elites.

When Jong-Fast moved into her $5-million apartment facing Central Park, one of her contemporaries asked, “Will you be a neighborhood shopper?”  Jong-Fast replied, “I’m just not like that.  I mean, I’m happy for those people.  Quite frankly, they have to exist.  It’s important for the ecosystem; it’s like plankton.”

Page may not be on the same economic rung as Jong-Fast, but they both harbor an arrogant disdain for regular, everyday American “plankton.”  Page’s complicity in trying to subvert the will of 63 million Trump voters while serving in her official capacity as legal counsel for the FBI epitomizes the depth of this disdain.

Aside from the writer’s and subject’s obvious shared hatred of President Trump, contradictions abound in the article/interview.

Jong-Fast touts Page as “one of an elite group selected for admission in the Department of Justice Honors Program in 2006” after graduating from law school.  She was the only woman assigned to the Criminal Division.  One can assume from this biographical information that Page had to know a thing or two about lawyering.  Yet, when informed by the DOJ’s Inspector General’s Office that she was under investigation for  political text messages, Page tells Jong-Fast:

I have no idea what they’re talking about[.] … I have no recollection. And initially they’re very coy about it.  They don’t tell me much about it.  I don’t have the first clue what they’re talking about.  What I do know is that my text messages will reveal that I had previously had an affair.  I’m overwhelmed by dread and embarrassment at the prospect that OIG investigators, Andy, and my colleagues, now know or could learn about this deeply personal secret.

What savvy FBI lawyer could not recollect or understand the gravity of writing political and personal texts whole working as counsel to the FBI deputy director?  Hiding behind the Democrat-controlled CIA, FBI, and DOJ, Page, like her smug cohorts, truly believed that her texts would never see the light of day.  Trump would not win, and if he did, they “had an insurance policy.”

Jong-Fast, the writer, doesn’t care about the blatant absurdities in Page’s childish protestations.  She asks “the slightly crumbly around the edges lawyer” how she has been affected by President Trump’s “sickening” tweets.  Page tells her, “Honestly, his demeaning fake orgasm was really the straw that broke the camel’s back[.] … I decided to take my power back.”  But not until she blames nonexistent MAGA boogeymen for the mess she created.

According to Page, Trump-supporters have made her a paranoid basket case:

[O]therwise normal interactions take on a different meaning.  Like, when somebody makes eye contact with me on the Metro, I kind of wince, wondering if it’s because they recognize me, or are they just scanning the train like people do?  It’s immediately a question of friend or foe?  Or if I’m walking down the street or shopping and there’s somebody wearing Trump gear or a MAGA hat, I’ll walk the other way or try to put some distance between us because I’m not looking for conflict.

Did Page consult Jussie Smollett for this contrived story?  I haven’t been to D.C. in a couple of months, but I’m pretty sure there weren’t too many people walking around with Trump gear or MAGA hats.

At the end of the Daily Beast article, Jong-Fast shores up Page’s fake, anxiety-ridden helplessness by orgiastically claiming, “Lisa Page will never be safe as long as Trump is President.”

What wets your whistle? It’s another day and another dire warning from the UN. Of course, almost 100% of the media repeats these dire warnings in order to indoctrinate the public, especially the young, with no questions asked as the media pretends they are fact checkers. 

What is always missing from these articles and warnings is factual historical data. There are no statistics to show how little the temperature has changed the last 140 years, only made up numbers about the future. There are no statistics to show how little the sea levels have changed the last 140 years, only threats about the future. There are also no statistics on hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards or drought the last 149 years, only made up numbers about the supposed threat. 

Somehow, these supposedly educated journalists never point out how wrong previous predictions have been, but the solution is always to transfer freedom and trillions of dollars to bureaucrats and politicians throughout the World. 

Today we only have a few years left and the cost has gone up substantially. Is it any wonder that the birth rate is so low when most of the people pushing the climate catastrophe crap also support abortion on demand at any stage of the pregnancy and we are told that humans are destroying the Earth and they are going to die soon anyway so why bring children into the World?

U.N. Chief Warns “Point of No Return” on Climate Change “Is in Sight”

U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres isn’t mincing words when it comes to issuing a dire warning about the global climate crisis, saying that the effort to stop climate change has been “utterly inadequate.”

No one should want their children to live in this ‘bleak’ future

In 1989, the UN also warned that we only had a few years left and journalists, like puppets without a brain, just repeated the warnings with no questions asked.

U.N. Predicts Disaster if Global Warming Not Checked

A senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000

In 1970, we were all going to die soon from global cooling and journalists, like puppets without a brain, just repeated the garbage with no questions asked.  

18 spectacularly wrong predictions made around the time of the first Earth Day in 1970, expect more this year

In January 1970, Life reported, “Scientists have solid experimental and theoretical evidence to support…the following predictions: In a decade, urban dwellers will have to wear gas masks to survive air pollution…by 1985 air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching earth by one half….”

The dire warnings to scare the kids and public have been going on for at least 97 years and as always journalists just repeat the fear with no questions asked. 

 The Global Warming Apocalypses That Didn’t Happen 

The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer, and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters, and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coastal cities uninhabitable.” — from an Associated Press report published in The Washington Post on Nov. 2, 1922.

It would be much easier and cheaper if the 1922 article was continually rerun as the predictions and warnings are essentially the same. 

Here is an easy question who push the indoctrination on the climate: How did the catastrophic warnings go from global warming in 1922 to global cooling in 1970 if rising CO2, the rapidly increasing population and an exponential rise in fossil fuel use cause warming?

Journalists are worthless if they just push policies with no questions asked. In 1922 it was global warming; in 1970 it was global cooling. In 1989, it was global warming again and then it changed to climate change. Then that wasn’t enough, so it has evolved into climate disaster, climate catastrophe and an existential threat greater than terrorism. Politicians are obviously poll testing to see what scares people the most. 

Here is a hint to journalists and other Democrats: The protests in Hong Kong, France, Venezuela, Iran and elsewhere have nothing to do with climate change. The cartels in Mexico have nothing to do with climate change. The illegal immigrants seeking to come to the U.S. are not coming because of climate change. The Syrian refugee crisis did not occur because of climate change and the terrorist who stabbed people in London this past weekend did not do it because of climate change. 

The climate, through billions of years, has always changed cyclically and naturally yet those of us who truthfully state this are called stupid, anti-science and deniers. The purpose of calling us stupid and deniers is to discourage questions and debate, especially among the young. Not asking questions breeds stupidity. Journalists are major contributors to the breeding of stupidity because they not only won’t ask questions, they stifle the speech of those who do. 

The purpose of breeding stupidity is to make people willing to hand over money, freedom and power to greedy politicians and make a greater share of people dependent on government for everything and that is the Democrats’ goal. 

The greater existential threat to our freedom, democracy and prosperity is indoctrination on climate change, not climate change itself.

The St. Pauli church in the multicultural Swedish city of Malmö has unveiled a LGBT-themed altar painting featuring same-sex couples to celebrate advent.

The painting, entitled Paradise, depicts two same-sex couples along with transgender individuals and is based on the 16th-century painting Adam and Eve by German master painter Lucas Cranach, Swedish newspaper Expressen reports.

Artist and photographer Elisabeth Ohlson Wallin, the creator of the painting, initially attempted to donate it to Skara cathedral which refused it stating it was too overtly political.

Sofia Tunebro, the head pastor of St. Pauli, welcomed the painting labelling it “pure joy” and added: “We are very grateful to have it, we have become a credible church.”

Swedish Bishop Claims to Have ‘More in Common with Muslims’ Than ‘Right-Wing Christians’ https://t.co/33KfjiLBVf

— Breitbart London (@BreitbartLondon) June 5, 2019

“The Swedish Church has been important for same-sex couples for ten years, but we have no representation of them in art. Similar images really need to hang in many churches,” she added.

Tunebro went on to say that “everyone should be able to be wed and buried in front of all the pictures. It is not up to the individual to decide, but this is how it looks in St. Paul’s Church. The architect designed the church round because it is a democratic form, in Lutheran spirit. So it fits well here.”

The Swedish state church is among one of the most progressive churches in Europe with some going as far as saying the church has a lack of Christianity.

One theme that has been common among Swedish church clergy is a very positive attitude towards Islam.

In 2015, openly lesbian Stockholm Archbishop Eva Brunne proposed removing crosses from some churches and installing Muslim prayer spaces during the height of the migrant crisis.

The Archbishop expressed her fondness for Muslims again in June of 2019, stating that she felt she had more in common with Muslims than with right-wing Christians.

Bishop Fredrik Modeus has also expressed similar beliefs, stating in 2018 that he was looking forward to hearing the public broadcast of the Muslim call to prayer in the city of Växjö.

Gun buyers are currently on the cusp of breaking the record for the highest number of background checks conducted in one year’s time.

Breitbart News reported the record for the most background checks in a single year is 27.5 million, and we are fast approaching that number.

The FBI reports the number of checks for November 2019 was 2,574,752, an all-time record for the month of the November. This brings the number of checks for January 1, 2019 through November to 25,432,856, which is roughly 2.1 million away from a record.

On December 1, 2019, Breitbart News reported that Black Friday 2019 witnessed the second highest number of background checks for a single day in history. USA Today reports a total of 202,465 background checks were performed on Black Friday 2019, a figure bested only by the 203,086 background checks performed on Black Friday 2017.

A small group of communists denounced the United States outside of its consulate in Hong Kong Tuesday, burning an effigy of President Donald Trump in a devil costume and trampling the American flag.

The Chinese Communist Party organizes mobs around the world to fanatically promote the Party’s agenda; in some cases, the mobs violently attack supporters of democracy in ostensibly free states. In Hong Kong, where millions of residents have taken the street to demand the Communist Party abide by the national policy that bans it from establishing law in the capitalist city, Beijing has fabricated small rallies in an attempt to claim that public sentiment there supports the Party.

Protesters have also accused Beijing of organizing armed mobs that have not protested but, rather, attacked groups of protesters, beating them with metal poles, often also attacking unrelated bystanders. Hong Kong police have done little to curb the mobs and have on some occasions added to the violence, targeting protesters with tear gas and rubber bullets. On multiple occasions, police have fired live rounds at protesters, claiming their lives were in jeopardy.

The mob organized on Tuesday protested the signing into law of the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act last week. President Trump signed it into law after it passed the Senate unanimously and nearly so in the House, a rare moment of unity in Congress. The act defends Hong Kong’s pro-democracy protesters by ensuring that participating in protests does not jeopardize applications for U.S. visas and it requires the State Department to review the state of human rights in the country annually. If found lacking, Washington could revoke Hong Kong’s special trade status, significantly damaging the city’s economy.

Tuesday’s mob appeared to be an attempt to counter the thousands who took to the streets last week in a “Thanksgiving” rally to celebrate the United States and President Trump, waving American flags in gratitude.

In from of the consulate, the mob instead placed an American flag on the floor and formed and orderly line to take turns stepping on it. They also brandished a paper cut-out of President Trump wearing a devil outfit and, later, burned the paper Trump.

Footage from the broadcaster RTHK shows a ringleader of sorts, a man in a suit and ponytail, shouting “devil, crazy man!” referring to Trump and leading chants of “condemn the U.S. invasion of Hong Kong” and “stop interfering in China’s internal affairs.”

“Bring down Donald Trump!” others shouted.

“As one woman beat a poster of Trump’s face with her mobile phone, another pretended to pummel a cardboard printout of the president’s head attached to a devil’s body. By the end of the demonstration, Trump’s oversized head had been set on fire,” RTHK reported.

RTHK estimated the mob at “several dozen people” and noted that the crowd handed a petition to an official at the U.S. consulate. The mob shouted for President Trump to resign from the presidency, presumably the demand contained in the petition.

Meanwhile, also at Tuesday lunchtime, a group of pro-Beijing protesters marched from Chater Garden to the US Consulate to voice their anger at the #HongKong Human Rights and Democracy Act, burning an effigy of Donald Trump.

The Asian outlet Coconuts noted that, in contrast to the U.S. flag, “Treating the Chinese flag similarly in Hong Kong carries a penalty of up to three years in prison.”

The small number of people and angry nature of the mob contrasted significantly to the positive atmosphere at last week’s Thanksgiving rallies organized by pro-democratic activists. In those, attendees waved American flags and shouted “thank you,” holding posted of President Trump as the iconic fictional boxer Rocky Balboa, which Trump had posted on Twitter without context earlier that week.

The Hong Kong protest movement has repeatedly expressed sympathies for America and the greater West, including former colonial power Britain. Protesters insist they do not want their free society to fall into the hands of communist China, which severely represses speech, religious worship, and nearly every other individual activity.

Protests began in June against a proposed law that would have allowed China to extradite anyone present in Hong Kong, regardless of Chinese citizenship, if Beijing accused them of violating Chinese laws, which do not apply on Hong Kong soil.

The protesters demanded a withdrawal of the bill, which the government granted in September, and four other demands: the end of calling the protests “riots,” freedom for imprisoned protesters, an investigation into police brutality, and the right to directly elect their lawmakers. With chants of “five key demands, not one less,” protesters have insisted they will not go home if the Hong Kong government fails to address their concerns, noting that the government’s brutal crackdown on their assemblies has necessitated the other demands.

Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam has repeatedly refused to address the four remaining demands. On Tuesday, she held a press conference where she asserted that her government would follow any sanctions imposed on Washington by Beijing and denouncing the Hong Kong Act as “completely unnecessary and unjustifiable.”

“Hong Kong’s human rights and freedom are protected by the Basic Law,” she said, referring to the constitution of the city. “In fact, I want to ask which aspect of Hong Kong residents’ freedom was eroded? We have press freedom, we have freedom to participate in rallies and marches. We have religious freedom. We have a high degree of freedom in many aspects.”
