Obama Just Accused Republicans of What
Democrats Are Doing, and It’s Nothing
Less Than Ominous
Posted By: Hazymac, 12/7/2024 8:30:24 AM
No one seems sure who first said it, maybe Joseph Goebbels, but in any case, it’s a tried-and-tested Alinskyite tactic: accuse your enemy of what you’re doing. Barack Obama is a practiced expert at this, and he gave a master class in it on Thursday at his Obama Foundation’s Orwellian-named Democracy Forum. With some notable and revealing difficulty in getting the words out, Obama accused the Republicans of doing everything that the Democrats have been doing for the past few years: rigging elections, weaponizing the justice system, and trying to ensure that they would remain in power on an indefinite basis. Whatever can be said of Barack Obama, the man

After four long years during which our democracy was under constant peril, one might say the November election cured that crisis, at least for now, returning the American voter and American values to center stage. Zealots of the Left, however, continue their tired chorus of accusation and cancellation. It is staggering how blind to election results and deaf to the voices of voters they seem to be. Wokeness may be in retreat but this core cadre, still including many in legacy media, continue their ranting about existential threats and trying to shame us into shedding crocodile tears over illegals. They have doubled down on their playbook even though
The University of Texas at Dallas Campus Police have arrested the suspect involved in the attack on TPUSA chapter president Paige Neumann and vice president Grace. TPUSA CEO Charlie Kirk confirmed the arrest on social media, stating that the individual has been placed in jail. According to information on the Collin County, Texas police department's website, the suspect, listed as Liam Thanh Tam Nguyen, is a biological male. (Snip) Original story below.
A Turning Point USA (TPUSA) chapter president was assaulted on campus at the University of Texas at Dallas while hosting an informational table on Tuesday.
Paige Neumann and her chapter vice president, Grace, were tabling when an individual
Quite the statement, eh? Let me explain. I’m well into my 60s and for my entire adult life I’ve heard that public school teachers are underpaid. It has been repeated as a mantra for decades.
Ignoring for a moment whether it is true or not -- and the answer to that is generally, it depends -- let’s accept the mantra and analyze why public-school teachers are still underpaid after all these years.
It’s not spending. As most voters know, it seems that every stinking year there is some ballot initiative or measure or legislative move to increase spending for our woefully underfunded public-school systems. It never seems to end.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) drew condemnation from personalities on both sides of the political spectrum when she seemingly expressed outrage over recent airstrikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen.
Tlaib responded to reports of a Signal text group that included national security officials, Vice President JD Vance, and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. The group reportedly discussed classified details of upcoming attacks against the armed terror group.
Someone accidentally looped in Jeffrey Goldberg, editor of "The Atlantic," into the chat.
"This is an outrageous national security breach, and heads should roll," Rep. Chris Deluzio (D-PA) told Axios,
Gay Nightclub Bans All MAGA-Related Attire

A popular LGBTQ nightclub in Sacramento, California, is prohibiting patrons who wear MAGA-related attire from entering the establishment.
Badlands, in the city’s Lavender Heights district, announced the policy on social media. Management claimed they were motivated to impose the ban after a patron wore a MAGA hat while in the bar, leading some patrons to complain that they were made to feel uncomfortable and unsafe.
“At Badlands Sacramento, we are committed to creating a space where the LGBTQ+ community and our allies feel safe, welcomed, and respected,” TJ Bruce, the bar’s owner, wrote in a social media post. “Recently, a guest entered the bar wearing MAGA attire,

Does President Trump understand how lucky he is with respect to his enemies? He probably does, which is why he keeps making traps and they jump in with gusto.
We learned that Governor Tim Walz (Kamala's VP) sort of admitted that he made you know what out of himself with his Tesla comments. He was "joking" or something like that. I guess that someone told him that the teachers' pension plan has money in the new "evil" Tesla. Remember when something similar happened to Hillary Clinton years ago? She was bashing fossil fuel companies until someone passed her a note that a public sector employees have their retirement plans
CAIRO/JERUSALEM, March 23 - An Israeli airstrike at a hospital in Gaza on Sunday killed five people, including a Hamas political leader, Palestinian medics and Hamas said, in an attack Israel said had targeted a key figure in the militant group.
The Gaza Health Ministry said the strike hit the surgery department at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. The Israeli military said its attack followed extensive intelligence and used precise munitions to minimize harm at the site. Hamas said a member of its political office, Ismail Barhoum, had been killed.
Israel's defence minister, Israel Katz, confirmed the target was Barhoum. The military did not name the target, which it
Someday a good Disney remake will come … but this isn’t it. The modern Disney Co. shouldn’t have remade “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” — it has lost the innovative genius, the artistry, and the appreciation for Western classics that made Walt Disney’s original film one of the most iconic and beloved movies of all time.
Yes, I know, everyone is tired of hearing about Rachel Zegler, the Wokest of Them All, but since the original Snow White (still one of the highest grossing films of all time) is a personal favorite of mine and it’s the weekend, let’s examine what used to make Disney movies great,
I really want to trust Lindy Li, the high profile 34-tear-old Democratic influencer and fundraiser who switched to Team Trump while votes were still being counted in California.
But I have reservations. And I have one very specific reason why.
In the last two months, Li has been all over the internet. Her breakout interview on the Shawn Ryan show a month ago has garnered more than 3.5 million views and over 30,000 comments. A subsequent interview with Patrick Bet-David netted 2.5 million. As Bet-David noted, “A lot of people want to know, is she straight up, is she real?”
Maybe, maybe not. Li is smart, sweet, charming, and so seemingly vulnerable
Everybody's favorite boomer rube, virulent Never Trumper and Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson, took to leftist social media to lament about his "quiet" house after getting kicked off X for threatening imagery promoting violence against Tesla.
If you haven't seen it yet, Wilson posted a substack article about attacking Tesla purely from a financial standpoint. The problem is that Rick thinks he's clever despite volumes of real-life examples that he is basically AOC with less hair.
As such, Wilson sent his post out on social media accompanied by an image of the burning shell of the Tesla Cybertruck that an Army soldier detonated outside a Trump hotel in Las Vegas
Tim Walz Apparently Thinks He Is a Woman
13 replies
Well, not quite. I used that headline for the sake of amusement, but Walz clearly does have a problem with how people perceive his masculinity, and he sure does seem to have an unnatural obsession with alphabet ideology, hanging around with young gay men, and a lot of less-than-masculine traits.
During the campaign, he pranced and danced, used his "jazz hands," kicked in excitement like he were a Rockette, and was, generally speaking, quite weird. Weird enough that after Harris put him out front for much of the campaign, she decided to put him in Witness Protection toward the end. He was as appealing as Herpes to most men.
Several longtime sponsors, including the company that makes Bud Light, have pulled their funding from the annual San Francisco Gay Pride Weekend.
For some reason, San Francisco Pride requires $3.2 million to cover its June weekend of events. Corporate sponsors were expected to pay $2.3 million of that. But after four declined, the organization will have to scramble to make up the $300,000 shortfall elsewhere.
San Francisco Pride’s executive director, Suzanne Ford, told SFGATE that they expect to lose a few sponsors every year, but it was “very abnormal” for four sponsors who have been with them for years to suddenly bail out.

Passwords and private information belonging to top national security officials in the Trump administration have been found online, according to the German publicationDer Spiegel.
In a stunning report published on Wednesday, the paper said its journalists “used commercial people search engines along with hacked customer data that has been published on the web.” Those whose information was compromised include Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.
“We welcome this continued relief for tens of thousands of refugees who will now have the opportunity to restart their lives in the United States,” said Melissa Keaney, the progressive lawyer for the elite-funded, anti-borders International Refugee Assistance Project. In a second courtroom in Seattle, another federal judge ordered the Trump administration to keep paying the quasi-government agencies that settle the refugees in Americans’ crowded housing, schools, and workplaces, such as in Springfield, Ohio.
A divided federal appeals court panel ruled Wednesday that the Trump administration could not immediately use the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to quickly deport suspected members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
The 2-1 ruling was handed down two days after a contentious hearing before the DC Circuit Court of Appeals, in which the Justice Department tried to lift a 14-day stay imposed by DC US District Judge James Boasberg.
During the hearing, Judge Patricia Millett harshly questioned the Trump Justice Department about its handling of the deportations — at one point saying, “Nazis got better treatment under the Alien Enemies Act [during World War II] than has happened here.”

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) continues to fund more than a billion dollars in diversity, equity and inclusion programs, even after President Donald Trump ordered federal agencies to eliminate them.
While other agencies have moved to eliminate the “illegal and immoral programs” targeted in Trump’s day-one executive order, NIH is still funding over $1.3 billion in active grants that include DEI components — from race-based hiring schemes to “anti-racist” training initiatives and diversity-first faculty pipelines. At least $441 million of those grants explicitly cite DEI in their project descriptions, according to NIH data compiled by watchdog group Do No Harm.

question about cabinet 'war plans' group

The Atlantic's editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg refused to reveal the status of the phone he was using when the Trump Administration added him to a top secret war plans group text. [Snip] He also told Darcy he was not concerned about retaliation from federal authorities for publishing some of the messages. [Snip] ...he is considering releasing more of the group chat messages. 'My colleagues and I and the people who are giving us advice on this have some interesting conversations to have about this,' Goldberg told Tim Miller on the Bulwark Podcast. 'But just because they're irresponsible with material, doesn't mean that I'm going to be irresponsible.'
A Greenlandic tourism business which was due to host Usha Vance has canceled the trip amid the Trump administration's 'underlying agenda' for the visit. [Snip] It was initially billed as a family-friendly holiday with Usha and one of her children... Then it emerged that she would be joined by embattled National Security advisor Mike Waltz, sparking fury among the nation's leaders--including the prime minister. But the final straw came when Usha's husband, Vice President JD Vance revealed he, too, would join her on the trip... [Snip] 'After closer consideration, however, we have now informed the consulate that we do not want her visit,' the store said.
Maxine vs. Melania

Just when you think the far-left circus couldn’t get any more clownish, Congresswoman Maxine Waters grabs a mic and reminds us why she’s the poster child for political absurdity. In a bizarre outburst, Waters floated the idea that former First Lady Melania Trump should have been deported—a statement so mindless, it would be laughable if it weren’t so telling. In her desperate attempt to “own” the Trumps, Waters did something utterly unexpected: she accidentally made the strongest case yet for legal immigration done right.
Washington—President Trump announced a 25% tariff on foreign-made cars Wednesday — saying it would boost domestic manufacturing.
Trump, 78, announced the move in the Oval Office, saying that “this is gonna lead to the construction of a lot of plants” to build cars domestically.(Photo) “We’ll effectively be charging a 25% tariff, but if you build your car in the United States, there is no tariff,” he said.
White House staff secretary Will Scharf announced that the action was projected to raise $100 billion in revenue — though analysis has suggested it may also sharply reduce import volume.
Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA director John Ratcliffe “lied” under oath to the Senate Intelligence Committee when denying classified information was included in a Signal group chat on military strikes against the Houthis.[Snip] the reason why I say it’s a pattern, in the first two weeks of the administration, they inadvertently released the names of 200 new CIA agents.[Snip] There’s not a day that goes by that you guys don’t report another one of the DOGE boys in one of classified agencies giving up personal information.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has hit back at left-wing Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) after she mocked his use of a wheelchair, claiming the Democrats have “nothing to sell but hate.”
The firebrand Texas lawmaker was slammed after she branded Abbott “Governor Hot Wheels” on Saturday during a Human Rights Campaign dinner in Los Angeles.[snip]
She responded to the criticism by bizarrely claiming her remarks had nothing to do with Abbott’s disability. “I wasn’t thinking about the governor’s condition — I was thinking about the planes, trains, and automobiles he used to transfer migrants into communities led by Black mayors,
Two Mexican nationals are accused of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old boy on board a cruise ship bound for Miami, Florida.
Mexican nationals Ricardo Daniel Mondragon Leal, 37 years old, and Jose Juan Prudencio Diaz, 36 years old, were arrested by the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office and charged with child sex crimes after allegedly assaulting a boy on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship.
According to police, Leal and Diaz were in the ship’s sauna with the 14-year-old boy when the incident occurred.

To Hear Lawsuit Over Trump Admin Signal Chat 12 replies
The judge who blocked the Trump administration from deporting foreign gang members will hear a lawsuit challenging officials’ use of a Signal chat to discuss attack plans.
American Oversight alleged in its lawsuit Tuesday that the app Signal, where officials hosted a chat about plans to bomb the Houthis in Yemen that included The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg, does not comply with federal record laws.
“Upon information and belief, under current State recordkeeping rules and practices, officials do not forward Signal messages, including messages from the Signal chat, to their official email accounts, thereby barring American Oversight and other FOIA [Freedom of Information Act] requesters from
