Radical socialists walk among us

Will Democrats give him what he wants?

UK's Sun reports the New Zealand mosque gunman published a manifesto: 

He boasted that he chose to use firearms so he could influence politics in the US. 

He wrote that he wanted to "create conflict between the two ideologies within the United States on the ownership of firearms in order to further the social, cultural, political and racial divide". 

And he ranted about his hopes that “this conflict over the 2nd amendment and the attempted removal of firearms rights will ultimately result in a civil war that will eventually balkanize the US along political, cultural and, most importantly, racial lines.” 

Democrats keep outing themselves

Via Twitter:

So just to be clear: A Somali-American Democrat engages in repeated anti-Semitism, and Democrats pass a resolution that condemns "white supremacists" (and gets in a reference to Charlottesville).

Not sure where Democrats think they're going ahead of the 2020 election cycle, but becoming the party of infanticide, or the party that tries to sugar-coat and excuse anti-Semitic behavior within its congressional delegatioon, isn't anything near as appealing to voters as Barack Obama's dreamy "Hope and Change."

The Democrat path to unchecked power

Daniel Greenfield writes:

The Democrat political calculus of infanticide is so brutally grim that it makes the infant exposure of their spiritual pagan forebears seem almost humane. 

Population increases in states like New York are driven by immigration. First generation immigrants are the safest political bets for Democrats. As the generations pass, the immigrants become worse bets. 

The safest pathway to a permanent Democrat majority is abortion and open borders. 

Global Warming provides the perfect political cover for a policy of suppressing births and promoting migration. Abortion will reduce our carbon footprint even as we welcome in “climate refugees”.

Are we dancing on a powder keg?

Immigrant crime in Norway

Conclusion of Norway news investigation:

TV 2's review shows that of the 140 perpetrators, 70 per cent had an immigrant background.  (Google translation)

Report also notes immigrants account for only 30 percent of Norway's population.

For now, it's still satire

But who knows who or what Democrats will next reach for in an attempt to smear Trump.

Via The Babylon Bee:

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Yesterday the long-awaited congressional testimony of expert witness Detective Pikachu took place on Capitol Hill. There have long been allegations against President Trump of connections to organized crime---particularly Team Rocket---and Detective Pikachu laid out all the evidence he had to bolster that claim.

Green New Deal = Starving masses

Patrick Moore was a co-founder of Greenpeace. He left the organisation in 1986,  but remains active in environmental causes.

Pompous little twit. You don’t have a plan to grow food for 8 billion people without fossil fuels, or get the food into the cities. Horses? If fossil fuels were banned every tree in the world would be cut down for fuel for cooking and heating. You would bring about mass death.

Forgotten alternatives

Used to be, apprenticeships were a well known, often used career path. Then government came along, pushing "cheap" student loans, and the notion that everyone was "entitled to" college.

Purifying the Party

The revolution apparently not moving fast enough to please some. So, like the communists and fascists of old, Democrats move to purify their party's ranks.

Via WaPo:

In a closed-door session, a frustrated Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) lashed out at about two dozen mVia oderates and pressured them to get on board. “We are either a team or we’re not, and we have to make that decision,” Pelosi said, according to two people present but not authorized to discuss the remarks publicly.
But Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), the unquestioned media superstar of the freshman class, upped the ante, admonishing the moderates and indicating she would help liberal activists unseat them in the 2020 election.

Ready for the Mueller report?

By some accounts, it could come as early as this week. 

Meanwhile, the whole narrative that got the thing rolling seems pretty much been debunked.

A couple of thoughts I've picked from others as the report release nears:

"The #Resistance has been losing bigly in recent days as each new “bombshell” it manufactures turns out only to reveal its modus operandi, which is that the end justifies the means — the end being to evict the wicked Mr. Trump from office and the means being dishonesty and bad faith in its use of the government’s prosecutorial machinery." - James Howard Kunstler

And

"For more than two years, the United States and the world have had two competing narratives: that an elected president of the United States was a Russian agent whom the Kremlin helped elect; and its rival narrative that senior officials of the Justice Department, FBI, CIA, and other national intelligence organizations had repeatedly lied under oath, misinformed federal officials, and meddled in partisan political matters illegally and unconstitutionally and had effectively tried to influence the outcome of a presidential election, and then undo its result by falsely propagating the first narrative. It is now obvious and indisputable that the second narrative is the correct one." - Conrad Black, at the Daily Mail

Stay tuned folks. Things might get real interesting real fast.

Yet another profile in double standard

Media didn't hesitate, and jumped aboard with Jussie Smollett's story.

On the other hand, this recent story, with a suspect in custody, didn't seem to get much traction at all:

Man allegedly pulls gun on couple wearing MAGA hats at Sam's Club: 'This is a good day for you to die'
