AP Issues New Guidance for Reporters to Cover Up Leftist Violence

Mobs of violent left-wing kooks have been roaming the streets of American cities for months terrorizing residents, murdering Trump supporters, beating people to a pulp, shooting police officers, and assaulting drivers in vehicles. But you wouldn't know any of this if you consumed news exclusively from the mainstream media because the mainstream media doesn't want you to know about it.

The Mystical Origins of Saigon's Notorious Octagonal Prison, Khám Chí Hòa

 

 Chi Hoa Prison (Khám Chí Hòa) is a seven-hectare facility located in Saigon's District 10.

According to VnExpress, in 1943, to replace the Saigon Grand Prison, construction of Chi Hoa was initiated by the Japanese — who withdrew from Vietnam before its completion — and later finished by the French. On March 8, 1953, as the construction of the prison came to an end, the Saigon Grand Prison was demolished. Aside from a number of released prisoners, the remaining 1,600 were transferred, along with a guillotine, to Chi Hoa.

Sampson County and the Defense of Western Civilization

 

Sampson County is a large, mostly rural county in southeastern North Carolina. Like most non-metropolitan areas of the state, it tends to be conservative, in fact, a long-time bastion of the modern Republican Party in a sea of traditionally Democratic-voting counties.

But Sampson County illustrates what is occurring all over the Southland. And in microcosm in certain ways it symbolizes the retreat of Western Christian civilization in the face of the overpowering forces of revolution now assaulting our heritage and threatening to dismantle our inheritance.

Trump v Biden

Trump 2016 v Trump 2020 Silent majority. : trump

Joe is an idiot and Trump is a jerk. Nothing has changed. Vote for who you believe will lead our country into brighter days. Trump will continue to be a jerk but will lead us back into financial prosperity, protect our religious rights and make our military strong. Joe will allow those who propped him up to lead us into socialism, cut our law enforcement off at the knees and weaken our military. He will take our religious liberties before his first term is over. If you refuse to vote for Trump because he is an arrogant jerk you are voting for socialism. I would not hang out with him. I wish he would shut his fat mouth, but I am afraid of what our country will become under this liberal left. I hate Trumps demeanor but his policies are spot on. I wish Trump would let Pence speak and Trump would just work behind the scenes. Please don’t let Trumps rudeness affect your vote. I would prefer a great doctor with a great bedside manner but I will take a great doctor with a terrible bedside manner all day over an idiot doctor that is nice to talk to.

Dem Tulsi Gabbard Raises the Alarm: ‘Ballot Harvesting Has Allowed for Fraud and Abuse’

 Via John

 

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) has raised an alarm over ballot harvesting and voter fraud, filing a bill to prevent the practice. Gabbard, a former presidential candidate, has shown an extraordinary willingness to buck the propagandistic groupthink in her party, and Democrats have not always appreciated it. Yet she is right to warn about ballot harvesting and voter fraud, and she even noted that the recent Project Veritas sting videos illustrate her point.

Joe Biden repeated his favorite lie about Trump at last night's debate.

 U.S. News -

 

At last night's debate, Joe Biden repeated his favorite lie about Donald Trump. It is also a favorite lie of the Democratic Party. Here is an excerpt from my article on the the Democratic Party Convention, where he also told the lie. You see and hear this lie repeated over and over again by Biden, Kamala Harris,  many Democrats, and much of the mainstream media, so you need to know the whole truth.

Excerpt:  

 

Biden’s speech elaborated on a frequent lie that Biden and the left-leaning mainstream media keep repeating. This lie takes the form of omitting an important part of President Trump’s words following the violent protest events in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August 2017.  The conflict was between legally authorized protesters rallying to prevent the statue of Robert E. Lee from being removed from the campus of the University of Virginia and bus-loads of organized courter-protesters, including Antifa and BLMHere is the Biden transcript:

 

 “Just a week ago yesterday was the third anniversary of the events in Charlottesville. Remember seeing those neo-Nazis and Klansmen and white supremacists coming out of the fields with lighted torches? Veins bulging? Spewing the same anti-Semitic bile heard across Europe in the '30s? Remember the violent clash that ensued between those spreading hate and those with the courage to stand against it?”

 

“Remember what the president said?”

 

“There were quote, ‘very fine people on both sides.”

 

 “It was a wake-up call for us as a country. And for me, a call to action. At that moment, I knew I'd have to run. My father taught us that silence was complicity. And I could not remain silent or complicit. At the time, I said we were in a battle for the soul of this nation. And we are.”

 

But here is what President Trump actually said, noting in bold print what Biden and his liberal media accomplices omitted.

 

 "You had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides. ... I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name. ... So you know what, it's fine. You're changing history. You're changing culture. And you had people — and I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the White nationalists, because they should be condemned totally — but you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and White nationalists. Okay? And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly. Now, in the other group also, you had some fine people. But you also had troublemakers, and you see them come with the black outfits and with the helmets and with the baseball bats. You had a lot of bad people in the other group."

 

 A bit of background on the Charlottesville involvement of Black Lives Matter and Antifa is necessary to understand Trump’s perfectly accurate statement and Biden’s allegiance to the Leftist Party Line on Charlottesville, BLM, and Antifa. The Charlottesville violence was, in fact, the Marxist inspired and endowed  work of Antifa and Black Lives Matter bully-squads who made a peaceful rally or any speeches impossible and turned the day into street brawling.

The political ideology that had captured Charlottesville government sheds important light on the Charlottesville tragedy. Earlier that year, Michael Signer, the Democrat Mayor of Charlottesville, declared that he wanted Charlottesville to be a center of resistance to Trump’s plan to enforce immigration law in sanctuary cities. The Vice-Mayor was a member of BLM.

 By the way, in a debate, you cannot allow your opponent to get away without calling such a lie. 

If you do not interrupt, you run a strong chance that a biased or uninformed moderator, will manipulate you out of a chance to challenge the lie and respond. The above lie is Biden's favorite, but his debate performance contained many outrageous lies that a poorly informed audience might accept unless strongly challenged.

Can Biden believe Antifa is only an idea? Very Troublesome!

 

In last night's debate, Joe Biden repeated the favorite leftist cover that Antifa in only an idea rather than a violent subversive terrorist organization. Biden is either astonishingly uniformed or he holds them as para-military allies 

Here is a September 2 quote  from CNN and Reuters by Attorney General William Barr about Antifa, in which he said: . 

 

"The Justice Department was monitoring the protest movement antifa, saying that it is at the heart of violence in cities around the country.. .I’ve talked to every police chief in every city where there has been major violence and they all have identified antifa as the ramrod for the violence,” “They are flying around the country. We know people who are flying around the country...We see some of the purchases they are making before the riots of weapons to use in those riots...So, we are following them.”

 

Barr has more recently stated:

 

"Antifa’s ultimate goal is world Communism, and their primary immediate goal toward that end is to bring down the Trump presidency"

Big Orly’s Diary: Bulk-Lot Wisdom from Up the Holler

 

Saturday morning was sunny and bugs screaming and buzzing, at least in my part of West Virginia, and it was nice and cool. Bugs is pretty much like folk. The boy bugs holler or buzz or I don’t know what all so the girl bugs will love them and they can get laid, and then the boy bugs run off and leave the girl bugs with the eggs. You’d think the girl bugs would learn, but they never do. If you have a choice, it’s better to be a boy bug.

Anyways, I was planning to go see Uncle Hant that makes skull break moonshine back in the woods so he could tell me how to make a living. Hant knows everything. A few years back, he sent the Poverty Office in Wheeling a letter that said he was a one-legged Injun princess named Sighing Cloud with black lung, and they started sending him money in trucks. Then they wrote him a letter saying did he have any children he didn’t know who was the daddy to, so they could send him more money. He told them he had thirteen and he didn’t have no idea where they came from but they all had Down’s Syndrome, whatever that is, and now he’s the richest man in McDowell County. So don’t nobody who says gummint is a bad thing know what he’s talking about.

Is It Time for a “490 B.C. Project”? High Schoolers Need to Know Our Classical Heritage

 

When Americans knew classical history, they could reach beyond partisan differences by drawing on the shared roots of our civilization. American students once learned, for example, about the Greek victory at Marathon in 490 B.C. This kept Greece from being swallowed up by the Persian Empire and ushered in the Golden Age of Athenian democracy which, for all its shortcomings, was a pathbreaking achievement. 

Democratic Athens, counterbalanced by Sparta’s tripartite system, led to broad-based polities and ultimately the Roman Republic. From there we trace a clear line to Magna Carta and the Renaissance republics, to the Enlightenment, and ultimately to the American Founding in the years around 1776.

Minneapolis Plan To Defund The Police Collapses, City Council Members ‘Regret’ Making Pledge

 The 3rd Precinct Police Station was abandoned by police and protestors took destroying it and raiding it after one of Minneapolis' police officers killed an African-American man named George Floyd in Minneapolis, United States, on May 29, 2020. Protests continued following the death of George Floyd, who died after being restrained by Minneapolis police officers on Memorial Day.

Minneapolis, Minnesota’s plan to defund and then disband their local police force has “collapsed” according to a New York Times report from over the weekend. Some of the Minneapolis City Council members who pledged to abolish the city’s law enforcement — including the City Council president — now say they regret making that promise. The Times headline blares that the “pledge to dismantle the police department has collapsed,” and notes that “a majority of City Council members promised to ‘end policing as we know it'” after George Floyd died while in the custody of the Minneapolis police department. Instead, though “they became a case study in how idealistic calls for structural change can falter.”

Anyone who still doubts the bias, the corruption, and the general worthlessness of our mainstream media should consider its obsession with Donald Trump’s taxes and its indifference toward the fundraising Fort Knox of Black Lives Matter. The former is a distraction, while the latter is a virtue-signaling shakedown scheme of unprecedented proportion.

The best defense against the Paternalism of the Federal government are the words “Our Father who art in Heaven.” A father is someone who provides freedom to his children based on genuine authority, paternalism seeks to make children live in Neverland forever.

You were pro-life in politics, as am I,” McCain said. “It’s a big part of who I am and my platform, and I don’t think taxpayers should be funding abortions for women who are as pregnant as I am right now.

Justice Clarence Thomas: ‘Our abortion precedents are grievously wrong and should be overruled’

 “Roe is grievously wrong for many reasons,” wrote Thomas, “but the most fundamental is that its core holding — that the Constitution protects a woman’s right to abort her unborn child — finds no support in the text of the Fourteenth Amendment.”

Instead of supporting the right to abortion, Thomas argued that Roe deprives individuals of liberty while simply requiring that this deprivation be protected. He calls it absurd that anyone would believe that the crafters of the Fourteenth Amendment would have meant to include a right to abortion.

“The fact that it took this Court over a century to find that right,” he argued, “all but proves that it was more than hidden — it simply was not (and is not) there.”

Guns Of The Man With No Name Trilogy

 a photo of the outlaw josey Wales with a gun

Clint Eastwood and Westerns have been a perfect match for more than fifty years. It all started with his portrayal of Rowdy Yates in the TV series Rawhide. The show ran for a total of 217 episodes from 1959 through 1966, with Eastwood starring in all of them. Clint continued his cowboy ways on the big screen with Sergio Leone’s so-called “Man with No Name Trilogy.” A series of films that set the standard for future Spaghetti Westerns (films produced in Italy and Spain) and began Eastwood’s rise to stardom.

The three films–A Fistful of Dollars (1964), For a Few Dollars More (1965) and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (1966)—make up the no-name trilogy. To be fair, Eastwood’s characters do have a name in each of the films. The first one, in which he’s called Joe, features an array of guns of the man with no name. He shoots a revolver, three rifles, a double-barreled shotgun, and mans a machine gun that wipes out an entire cavalry outfit. It’s set in the 1860s, and it’s vintage Eastwood as the anti-hero.

The Importance of Amy Coney Barrett

 Opinion | Amy Coney Barrett: A New Feminist Icon - POLITICO

The Judge can solidify an originalist majority on the High Court.

President Trump’s nomination of Amy Coney Barrett for the Supreme Court is a highlight of his Presidency and perhaps a hinge moment for the judiciary. Judge Barrett’s record and intellect suggest she can join Mr. Trump’s other appointees in reviving core constitutional principles in American law and life.

If this sounds like a tall order for one Justice, we do not mean to suggest this is her job alone. She is the latest example of a new generation of originalist judges whom Mr. Trump and the GOP Senate have elevated to the federal bench. The numbers—three Justices and 53 appellate-court judges—are crucial, but more important is how they approach the law. With rare exceptions, they think of themselves as protectors of the proper constitutional order, not as a third policy-making alternative to the political branches.
