If You Can’t Blame the Confederacy, Secede!

American political theater has become the most entertaining show in town. Trump refuses to shake hands and Pelosi rips up his script.

This is red meat for the duly indoctrinated in the mainstream political parties, but in case you thought that Trump’s impeachment and subsequent acquittal would calm the waters and draw the final curtain on a five-month Greek comedy, the woke lunatics and their Girondist media allies have decided the show must go on.

And who can we blame? Why the Confederacy, of course, the fly in the ointment of good American government. If it wasn’t for those dastardly traitors of 1861 and their political progeny, America would be a glorious City Upon a Hill.

CNN’s John Harwood seems to think something nefarious is afoot from below the Mason Dixon:

Doomsday Cometh as a Brokered Convention Becomes the Second Most Likely Outcome of the Democratic Primary

Via Billy

I’m not trying to be hyperbolic, but I’m also not sure it’s an exaggeration to describe this week as the worst week for Democrats since election night 2016. The sheer number of defeats they’ve taken, from the Iowa caucus debacle, to Bernie Sanders’ surge, to Trump’s triumphant SOTU, to impeachment completely failing, it’s been a string of days everyone on the left would prefer to forget.

Well, things are on track to get a heck of a lot worse because, with Bernie’s victory in Iowa (and his coming one in New Hampshire), the second most likely outcome of the Democratic primary is now a brokered convention.

At ‘Undoing Racism’ workshop, participants told ‘all white people are racist’

 

‘Intensive process challenges participants to analyze the structures of power and privilege’

The People’s Institute for Survival and Beyond’s “Undoing Racism” workshop, hosted on various college campuses and other community locations across the nation, works to end systemic racism and institutional oppression.

One way it apparently does that is by telling attendees “all white people are racist.”

An op-ed in Vassar College’s student newspaper states that during an Undoing Racism workshop there during the fall 2019 semester, instructors made that statement.

Trump Re-Election Bid Gets Boost as Poll Shows 90% of Americans Satisfied with Life

 

According to Gallup, the poll was conducted from Jan. 2-15 — just before Trump’s impeachment trial opened in the Senate. A random sample of 1,014 adults was surveyed, and the margin of error was plus- or minus-4 percentage points at a 95 percent confidence level

The results of the trial were a foregone conclusion. No serious person — not even unserious liberals — expected two-thirds of the Senate to vote to overturn the results of the 2016 election. So it’s not like the poll respondents were anticipating a change in the White House.

Three Glorious Days of Democrat Agony

 

So, February 3, 4, and 5, 2020 were pretty much the most miserable three days in the history of the Democratic Party. I’m not laughing, really I’m not! You know how sometimes you have a bad day when nothing goes right? Well, these super-achievers managed to triple that streak. They are achievers in the same sense Hoover Snort Biden is an achiever.

Let’s start with Monday, February 3rd and the Iowa Caucuses. In their defense, it wasn’t like they had four years to get prepared to handle…counting. Oh wait, they did have four years to handle…counting. Okay, well, then in their defense they went to unionized failing government schools, so counting is hard. But not for the Republicans, who managed to count their votes just fine.

A set of screen grabs which sparked wild conspiracy theories that China is covering up the death toll of coronavirus could have been digitally altered, web users have claimed.

Calls For Expelling Romney From GOP Surge; Utah Lawmaker Files Motion To Allow Recall Of Senators

 

Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, who is Romney’s niece, slammed her uncle on Twitter, writing: “This is not the first time I have disagreed with Mitt, and I imagine it will not be the last. The bottom line is President Trump did nothing wrong, and the Republican Party is more united than ever behind him. I, along with the @GOP, stand with President Trump.”

Calls exploded either to expel Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) from the Republican Party or recall him from the Senate immediately after he sided with the Democrats during the Senate’s vote to acquit President Donald Trump on Wednesday afternoon.

The calls to remove Romney from the GOP were led by Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, who tweeted: “Mitt Romney is forever bitter that he will never be POTUS. He was too weak to beat the Democrats then so he’s joining them now. He’s now officially a member of the resistance & should be expelled from the @GOP.”
