Lunatic Democrats

 The latest lunatic Democrat obsessions from the past 20 years:

They spent a couple of years on climate change—even Bill Gates knows it’s a scam for Al Gore to get rich and radicals to control money.

Then it was COVID. We had to shut down the country, wear masks that didn’t work, stand six feet apart (which made no difference), and cancel all regular activities.

Then they celebrated a multi-time felon who died from a drug overdose, turning it into George Floyd mania and the Black Lives Matter scam.

Then they tried claiming violent illegal alien gangs were just “next-door neighbors, Marilyn’s dad.”

They pushed the “Jewish genocide” and “Free Palestine” scam for a while.

They decided police should be abolished.

ICE is the new Gestapo.

Sidney Sweeney is a Nazi.

President Trump is a king.

Democrats are laughable jokes.

But they try to scam us on real things to fear like open borders. They said didn't exist +

Rampant crime 

A brain dead president they said was fine 

and many others

and now they uniformily SUPPORT candidates:

with SS tatoo on his chest for decades

attorney general candidate who opwnly says he wants to murder his opponent and his kids

open jihadists as mayors of NY, Minneapolis and Senate in Michigan

Look down at the first nine months of the Trump administration:

The border is secure.

Crime is down, especially in the cities where Trump sent in extra help.

Inflation is down from Biden’s record high.

There are many trillions of dollars in new investment.

There are numerous peace deals around the world between conflicting nations that Trump facilitated.

Trump bombed Iran’s nuclear weapons program to help stabilize the Middle East.

The Trump plan brought a ceasefire to Gaza.

We’re once again energy independent.

The military is once again meeting its recruitment needs because it ended the “woke” policies of the Biden era.

The astronauts Biden stranded were rescued.

Venezuelan gunboats bringing drugs to America have been blown out of the water.

World leaders are tripping over themselves to get time and handshakes from Trump.

The Speaker of the Israeli Knesset said Trump is the most consequential friend of the Jewish people since King Cyrus 2,500 years ago.

Trump beat back the unconstitutional effort of 32 states to bar him from the ballot in the last election.

Trump beat back the false 94 felony counts brought by Democrat abuse of the legal system.

Trump beat back the phony Russian collusion claim that Obama and Hillary concocted out of whole cloth.

GDP in the second quarter soared.

The stock market keeps setting records.

And look at the culture those claiming to be trans have been cut significantly, dei has become a pejorative term, their significant pressure to stop having boys pretend to be girls to wreck, girls sports and to be able to go to girls locker rooms to Leer at girls changing clothing

We've been spared the incompetent, Communist, lying Kamala Harris who continues to say to this day that Joe Biden was mentally competent and able to serve.

Dems wield evil totalitarian tools to seize and hold power:

 Dems wield evil totalitarian tools to seize and hold power:

IRS: Obama sicced it on pro-conservative, pro-Israel groups.

Russia Hoax: Obama & Hillary bankrolled the fake Steele dossier, weaponized courts against Trump.

Jan 6: FBI planted 200+ agents in the crowd to stage an "insurrection."

Jack Smith: Illegally wiretapped 100+ people, including senators.

Courts: Post-reelection announcement, 90+ bogus felonies (dismissed one by one), 32 states tried ballot bans, Dem Congress pushed sham impeachments.

Meanwhile:

Biden ran a family crime syndicate.

Obama had history’s most scandals yet claimed "none."

Hillary sold State Dept access for hubby’s $500K speeches.

Ideas bankrupt, Dems resort to violent rhetoric—culminating in Charlie Kirk’s assassination and two attempts on Trump.

Teaching the VP

 Vice President Vance,

I commend you for hosting Turning Point events on college campuses.

Two statements from your response to a student on school prayer warrant clarification and elaboration:

You credited Christianity with teaching the world that "all men are created equal," rooted in the biblical idea that we are made in God's image. That concept originates in Genesis 1 of the Hebrew Bible—a Jewish idea that later influenced Christianity. The full story deserves to be taught.

You said Christianity taught the world not to force religious belief, but that individuals should choose faith freely. This overlooks 2,000 years of Christian persecution of Jews for refusing conversion. Among the three major Western faiths, only Judaism teaches that the righteous of all nations earn a place in the world to come.

The New Testament’s claim that "no one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6) is hardly tolerant by modern standards.

Christianity’s current embrace of tolerance is welcome—but it’s not the whole story. The principle of free religious choice has deeper roots in Jewish theology.

Democrats: stop hurting America with the shut down

 The Democrats are hurting America by prolonging the government shutdown—now 12 times in a row they've blocked it. We need just five Democrats to vote with all Republicans to reopen the government, but they've failed to materialize. All it would take is five to vote the right way, and they can't even muster that.

Meanwhile, 40 million people are set to lose their food stamps. Chaos is brewing at airports as unpaid air traffic controllers strain under the load. Our military isn't getting paid. Shame on every Democrat.

acceptance of anti semitism om the right

 https://www.jta.org/2025/10/30/united-states/heritage-foundation-president-stands-by-tucker-carlson-after-host-platforms-antisemitism?utm_source=JTA_Iterable&utm_campaign=JTA_DB&utm_medium=email

The president of the Heritage Foundation, the leading conservative think tank, defended right-wing pundit Tucker Carlson and said the group would not cut ties with him days after Carlson hosted an interview with antisemitic influencer Nick Fuentes.

Kevin Roberts also said in a video on the social network X that Christians should reject calls not to criticize Israel, which he said were coming from a “venomous coalition” of “bad actors,” and that conservatives should further refrain from “canceling” Fuentes.

“We will always defend truth, we will always defend America and we will always defend our friends against the slander of bad actors who serve someone else’s agenda,” Roberts said. “That includes Tucker Carlson, who remains, and, as I have said before, always will be, a close friend of the Heritage Foundation.”

He warned Carlson’s critics: “Their attempt to cancel him will fail.”

It was a striking show of support from the influential conservative organization, which previously put out “Project Esther,” a right-wing plan to counter antisemitism post-Oct. 7. The Heritage Foundation was also behind Project 2025, a right-wing blueprint for President Donald Trump’s second term in office that has been closely adhered to on a policy level, and has farmed many of Trump’s closest associates.

Fuentes has mounted an outside bid for influence within the larger right-wing movement, using overt antisemitism as his main flank. His chummy conversation with Carlson, who agreed with the provocateur on many issues including Israel, was seen as a further mainstreaming of antisemitic views within the right.

Roberts, however, saw it as embodying the conservative ideals of free debate.

“I disagree with, and even abhor, things that Nick Fuentes says,” Roberts said, without elaborating. “But canceling him is not the answer, either. When we disagree with a person’s thoughts and opinions, we challenge those ideas in debate. And we have seen success in this approach as we continue to dismantle the vile ideas of the left.”

Framing Carlson’s critics as dissatisfied online, Roberts continued, “The Heritage Foundation didn’t become the intellectual backbone of the conservative movement by canceling our own people or policing the consciences of Christians. And we won’t start doing that now. We don’t take direction from comments on X.”

Elsewhere, the Heritage head staked out a position that was critical of Israel, at a time when once-sacrosanct support for the country on the right is diminishing.

“Christians can critique the state of Israel without being antisemitic. And of course, antisemitism should be condemned,” he said. “My loyalty as a Christian and as an American is to Christ first, and America always. When it serves the interests of the United States to cooperate with Israel and other allies, we should do so, with partnerships on security, intelligence and technology. But when it doesn’t, conservatives should feel no obligation to reflexively support any foreign government, no matter how loud the pressure becomes from the globalist class or from their mouthpieces in Washington.”

(The term “globalist” has a history of being used as an antisemitic dog whistle.)

Roberts’s remarks on only supporting Israel when it suits the United States echoed similar statements made by Vice President JD Vance in Mississippi Wednesday evening — at an event in which Vance, too, was criticized for failing to condemn a question laced with antisemitism. In his video, Roberts also called Vance a friend and positively referenced his comments.

On X, some conservative Jews criticized Roberts.

“There can be no respectful debate with people who have said the things that Fuentes and Tucker have said about Jews,” replied Mike Ginsberg, a Jewish Virginia Republican. “Regarding Jews, neither Tucker nor Fuentes have taken rational political positions one can debate honestly … Choosing to associate with them — consciously, knowing what they have said about Jews — is a choice.”

One person thankful for Roberts’s remarks was Fuentes himself.

“Thank you for your courage in standing up for open discourse and defending Tucker against the Israel First Woke Right,” he wrote to Roberts on X.

PROGRESSIVE IDEOLOGY IS A LIE

PROGRESSIVE IDEOLOGY IS A LIE

David Horowitz throws a cold dash of reality onto the shibboleths of progressive dogma. Are progressives crazy? No, David says, the truth is worse than that.

Crackpot pronouncements that bewilder the politically incorrect.

1. Certainly the most important (and perhaps the most bizarre) of these pronouncements is the progressive claim that, “America is a white supremacist society, which marginalizes and underserves people of color.” This is the kind of statement the White House makes when explaining its “equity” policies which are designed to correct the injustice.3

a. But if this description is accurate, how does one explain the stampede of two million people – mainly “of color” – massing at our border to get into a country, which is said to oppress them?4 How would an estimated two million people, 90% of them “people of color,” decide to risk their lives this year alone to break into a white supremacist country that will marginalize, underserve and oppress them?

b. In a brazen lie on his Inauguration Day, President Biden claimed that “systemic racism touches every facet of American life.”5 It would be his administration’s policy, he promised, to put an end to this alleged injustice – mainly by violating the Constitution and redistributing income and privilege on the basis of race. All “people of color” would be the beneficiaries of this “equity” largesse, while their white-skinned oppressors would be denied the same.6 All this progressive virtue signaling, however, was based on a lie. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 explicitly outlaws “systemic racism.” If there were systemic racism touching “every facet of American life,” as Biden claimed, there would be a tsunami of lawsuits leading to billions in damages. There is no such tsunami. In other words, with one exception there is no pervasive systemic racism in American institutions. Progressive equity payoffs are just racist -and illegal – transfers of wealth.

c. There is one exception. The only real systemic racism in American life is affirmative action. Affirmative action programs required a pass from the Supreme Court precisely because they are racist and therefore unconstitutional. Affirmative action’s discriminatory measures are designed, moreover, to benefit only a handful of select groups of “people of color.” Asians do not quality for affirmative action skin privileges, because they do very well without them.7 The selection of the beneficiary groups was always political. So much for justice.

2. The spectrum of progressive ideology is always seen by those who are drunk on it as a “hierarchy of oppression.” This so-called hierarchy has been turned into an elaborate and lucrative enterprise, generating mountains of hot air in the academy where it is called the “theory of intersectionality.” This ludicrous exercise in intellectual thumb-sucking assigns levels of oppression to individuals who are alleged to have multiple “oppressed” identities, such as black lesbian females who are said to be more oppressed, for example, than heterosexual black males.

A. But are they? Are black lesbian females really powerless in 21st Century America? At the bottom of the totem pole? Victims of multiple oppressions? All the founding organizers of Black Lives Matter were able to engage an estimated 40 million supporters in the summer of 2020, and to orchestrate violent attacks on 220 cities,8 and to collect nearly $100 million in donations from America’s richest corporations and celebrities,9 and were officially endorsed by the President of the United States and the Democrat Party.10 All the creators of Black Lives Matter able to accomplish these feats are black lesbians – and proud of it!11 Victims indeed! More accurately: victimizers.

b. The federal government has spent tens of millions of taxpayers’ dollars on fatuous intersectionality projects without managing to provide a reasonable explanation of what constitutes “oppression” in a free society, or how individuals can be trapped at various levels of a “hierarchy” in a nation in which everyone has equal rights by law. No group in America – except children of abusive parents and the victims of sex traffickers and slavers – is oppressed. No racial, gender or economic group is oppressed. If they are, where is the exodus?

c. Are black Americans marginalized? Blacks have been the center of the nation’s attention since the civil rights movement of the 1950s. Although comprising only 13% of the population they have been able to assert themselves as an unrivalled force in the nation’s media, music and entertainment cultures. Through their dominant roles in sports, black athletes have provided icons and role models for generations of America’s youth – black and white. How marginal is that? Are black Americans underserved? In fact they have been the focus of federal support and privileges amounting to trillions of dollars –more than any other ethnic or racial group. From the point of view of opportunities and benefactions offered to particular groups, there is no greater “skin privilege” than being black.

D. Intersectional hierarchies with an oppressor caste of white males at the top are a progressive illusion. There is no such closed social hierarchy possible in America. The alleged oppressor caste – white males – are only about a third of the population. The putative victims of their oppression not only outnumber them 2-1, they are endowed with the same rights. So how are white males able to control and oppress them? Women preside over courts, run major law enforcement agencies, occupy the vice presidency, sit on the Supreme Court, are the most powerful members of the House of Representatives, have chaired both political parties, and are the chief executives of large American cities. If there hasn’t been a female president yet, whose fault is that? Clearly not white males.

Is there a glass ceiling for women? The adjective itself is a giveaway that there is not. If the ceiling is invisible, it’s because it doesn’t exist. The gender-wage-gap is a long-disproven fiction. Wage discrimination against women was outlawed as a practice nearly 60 years ago by the Equal Pay for Equal Work Act of 1963 – passed by a Congress almost exclusively male. If such a gap existed, and wasn’t outlawed, the remedy would be to do what the Jews and the Irish did when prejudice made them social pariahs. They built their own institutions.

Do women have the resources to create their own economies? Indeed, they do. In America, women’s wealth amounts to $11 trillion, more than enough to build equal pay for equal work institutions if the law didn’t already require it.13

What is true for glass ceilings is also true for concepts like “unconscious racism” and “unintentional racism,” weasel words deployed to justify the aggressive racism of the diversity industry. If the racism is unconscious and unintentional, then it is in the eye of the beholder.

These “triggering” moments are not oppressions of groups trapped in a rigid hierarchy from which they cannot escape. If too many black Americans are poor, the source of their poverty is themselves. In fact, only 20% of blacks are poor.14 Better if it were less, but that figure poses the question: If 80% of blacks are not poor, how can racism be the explanation for the failure of 20% to avail themselves of the advantages that are open to the 80%? Especially when there are millions of people here illegally, who don’t speak the language and still manage to earn a decent living.

Among the more obvious holes in the progressive world view is the fact that there is no place for history, except as a locus of bad practices which can be manipulated to indict the present. The fact that American slaves were first enslaved by black Africans who sold them at auctions in Africa, and that white Americans died in the hundreds of thousands to free blacks, and also inspired a global movement for equal rights, is either missing from progressive narratives, or disparaged.

The progressive outlook also has no place for the crucial roles that psychology, family structure, or criminal behavior play in the destinies not only of individuals but of groups. E.g., if inner cities lack amenities, it is because criminals “of color” scare legitimate businesses and services away. The progressive outlook also has no room for the idea that attitudes can change and not only under threat. Above all, it has no appreciation for the long-term benefits of a society, like America’s, which fosters upward mobility and was dedicated in its founding in a hierarchical world to provide equal rights for all.

Between 1940 and 1950 the earnings of the average black male increased 75%, which was about twice the rate at which white incomes grew.16 This was before the civil rights movement, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Great Society welfare programs that, in any case, failed to reduce poverty at all. Between 1940 and 1960, black incomes for males and females more than doubled.17 By 1971, oppressed, marginalized and underserved black couples with two working spouses were earning 5 percent more than white couples of the same description in every part of the United States except the South.18

Inflation-adjusted per capita black income in 1973 was more than 125 percent higher than twenty-five years earlier.19 Since 1981, black families with two college-educated, working spouses have earned slightly more than white families of the same description in every age group and in every region of the country.20

Why have 20% of the black population failed to climb out of poverty, while 80% have succeeded? Here are some statistics that help to explain. In 2019 the poverty rate in traditional two-parent families of all races was 4.0 percent, compared with 22.2 percent in families headed by a female with no adult male present.

Why are 70% of black families in inner cities single-parent, female-headed households?21 Because 60 years ago progressives devised a welfare system that disqualifies families with a father in the house from receiving welfare benefits. The progressive ideological prism has no window for this, so for 60 years progressives have blocked every change to the system that would free black welfare families from poverty. Progressive ideology – not race – is the oppressor of black poor people in America.

The statistics show that income equality is within the power of blacks to achieve by themselves. Whites are richer not because they oppress blacks but because whites are more successful at forming traditional nuclear families and completing a college education. The educational system is public and largely free, especially to government-privileged minorities. Black failure is concentrated in urban centers where minorities are a majority and blacks occupy positions of power in private philanthropies, public institutions and governments.

In this situation, the chief obstacle to black Americans’ success is the epidemic of anti-white racism present in the Biden White House, the Democrat Party, the Black Lives Matter movement, the leftwing media and corporate culture, universities, philanthropic institutions, the Diversity Industry and the K-12 teacher unions. The sinister message to blacks from all these race-infected institutions is: You don’t control your destiny, racist whites do.

This lie has planted the seeds of violent hatred, triggering a national crime wave whose perpetrators (and victims, ironically) are mainly black. Why are black racists targeting Asians? Because Asians have shown that a minority that suffers persecution can succeed if it embraces the right values. Asians are in fact the richest ethnic group in America – significantly richer than whites.22

The chief effect of anti-white racism is to inculcate a sense of powerlessness among blacks that feeds the hate and encourages them to put their faith in the corrupt urban leaders who have lined their own pockets with trillions of federal dollars intended to advance black interests. Al Sharpton and ambulance-chaser Benjamin Crump, attorney for the Black Lives Matter’s fake martyrs, come immediately to mind.23

There is no hierarchy of oppression in America. But there are such hierarchies in the socialist societies admired by progressives – Cuba, China, Venezuela, Nicaragua, and Russia. The social hierarchy in these progressive countries is determined by the hierarchy in the ruling party that bills itself as the savior of the people, which is precisely how progressives see themselves.

Democrats' support for Israel has cratered under Biden

By Barry Shaw

After a year in office, it is clear to most Americans, and much of the free world, that President Biden is no Reagan, Trump, or even Clinton. 

Putting it kindly, Biden is no originalist.  He doesn't have one uniquely Biden policy.  Biden is merely the front man, the mouthpiece for the background bureaucrats who set America's course and craft America's direction. 

That's why he has little to say about the disaster at America's southern border.  This is a policy set by radical socialists and the cynical wing of the Democrat party to flood the country with millions of people who will be dependent on a socialistic government for eternal handouts. 

Biden is silent on this issue.  He has not been issued with cue cards to explain away the tsunami of destitute people, the massive import of deadly drugs and sex-traffickers, the result of a borderless America.  It's a stealth operation, and the president has been told not to take questions and not to talk about this huge problem that will debilitate the American economy and its social fabric for decades. 

That's just one aspect of the failure of the current president to face up to domestic problems that weren't there before he took office. Another is the economy.  A third is the way they educate — read: indoctrinate — kids these days.

When it comes to foreign policy, Biden is the puppet of his handlers. 

We saw that played out in Afghanistan, where his military, intelligence, and State Department set him on a course that was doomed to fail.

If there is a common theme that connects Biden's domestic and foreign failures, it is the Cancel Trump policy. 

Whatever Trump succeeded in doing, cancel it. 

On his first day in the Oval Office, Biden canceled the Keystone Pipeline and lifted sanctions off Russia's Nord Stream pipeline to Europe.  How is that working out after Putin invaded Ukraine?

Trying to do things better than — or should I say differently from — Trump was seen in the bungled, deadly Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan. 

As the time of writing this piece, we see America dangling by a thread being pulled by Iran and Russia, who are having fun embarrassing Biden in Vienna.  At least four members of Robert Malley's negotiating team have walked off the job, with one reporting, "What is going on in Vienna is an absolute disaster." 

If that is what a top American negotiator is feeling, how do you expect Israel to feel?  After all, Iran's almost inevitable nuclear weapon will be aimed first at Israel.

So what happened to the United States who once looked on Israel as its staunchest ally? 

Under Biden, those days are over. 

How did that happen?  It began before Biden became president. 

Biden likes to talk about how fond he was with Golda Meir.  That's how far he goes back.  But he wasn't so fond of Menachem Begin, or of Benjamin Netanyahu.  He raked both over the coals to be rebuked by Begin, when Biden, then a Delaware senator, threatened to cut off United States aid to the Jewish State in 1982. 

Don't threaten us with cutting off your aid. It will not work. I am not a Jew with trembling knees. I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid.

Biden's relationship with Netanyahu soured several times during Bibi's premiership.  In 2019, Biden accused Israel's prime minister of being "counterproductive" and an "extreme right" leader. 

But the harshest anti-Israel cut of all was when Obama recruited Biden, his vice president, and his point man to Ukraine, to bring that country onboard in their United Nations Security Council Resolution 2334, which condemned Jewish people living in Judea and Samaria and parts of Jerusalem as being illegal occupiers, according to the Obama-Biden vindictive new international law. 

This was their last spiteful act, stabbing Israel in the back, as they left the White House in December 2016. 

It was payback time against Netanyahu's vocal opposition to Obama's infamous Iran nuclear deal. 

Now Biden is attempting to cancel Trump's sanctions against the rogue regime in Tehran, a state sponsor of terror that has deceived the world about its covert uranium enrichment progress — the Iranians are now up to 60% and within reach of 90%, making Iran a nuclear threshold state — by concocting an even worse deal than Obama's. 

Biden's deal will release the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps from the United States list of foreign terrorist organizations despite their deplorable record of deadly attacks against Israel, the UAE, other Gulf States, and Saudi Arabia as they try to usurp power in Yemen, Iraq, and Lebanon. 

For no solid commitment from Iran to stop its nuclear development or expansion into the region, Biden is prepared to reward the unrepentant ayatollahs with billions of dollars in sanctions relief and the green light to export oil production that will enrich Iran's intercontinental ballistic missile program, the vehicle that will deliver the doomsday weapon to Israel and potentially to the United States.

Biden can say he overrode yet another Trump policy, but that gives little comfort to an Israel, smaller than New Jersey, faced with both a nuclear threat and Iranian forces and their proxies with 300,000 powerful precision missiles aimed at us over our northern, eastern, and southern borders.

Biden's animosity toward Israel also expresses itself in a new directive.  His administration is offering a million-dollar bounty to any group reporting Israeli human rights violations against Palestinians.  This reward is not reciprocal.  He is not demanding evidence of Palestinian deadly human rights crimes, even war crimes, committed by their terrorist armies and individuals against Israeli citizens, nor their blatant anti-Semitic indoctrination programs clamoring for a world without Israel.  Biden is not even prepared to offer money to Palestinian human rights groups who want to report human rights crimes committed by their own leaders in Ramallah or in Gaza in which their citizens are summarily arrested, taken to detention centers, tortured, and killed for protesting their cruel and corrupt rule.  

It's only Israel they are after.

Attention must be brought to the administration's determination to break international law by revoking Israel's sovereignty over Jerusalem, our eternal capital.  The State Department is determined to open a consulate in Jerusalem to exclusively serve Palestinians.  This is an affront to the dignity and sovereignty of the nation-state of Israel and against all international principles.  Antony Blinken is determined to press ahead with this Palestinian mission in the heart of Jerusalem over strenuous Israeli objections.

Biden could open his consulate in either Ramallah or Gaza City, where the competing and warring Palestinian leaderships administer their divided populations, but he won't.

It is yet another example of Biden's antagonism against Israel. 

I am certain it is not Biden inventing these provocative policies.  It is, for sure, the anti-Israel, dare I say anti-Jewish, bureaucrats, lobbyists, and activists who have been allowed to insert themselves into positions of power and decision-making in Congress, the White House, the State Department, and other government offices and are now being foisted onto a president attempting to appease the radical anti-Israel base within his administration and his party. 

Remember this the next time you hear Democrats saying how much they stand with Israel. 

These are troubling times for Israel.
