thelibertydaily--2020-12-01--Whaddyaknow—Enemy of the People CNN Finally Admits China Lied About Bat Flu

Happy March 276th , 2020 , dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends .

The goal was to scare people into voting for Joe Biden , a candidate who even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Now that they feel that their strategy worked , the network thought it would dip its toes into the truth-telling pool on Monday .

The fun began when CNN proclaimed that it had an “ exclusive ” about China and the plague : To say that CNN is a little late to the party on this one would be doing things with the word “ understatement @ @ @ @ @ @ @ countries .
I know this year seems like it ’ s been a decade long , but I can still remember way back to last summer , when the bulk of CNN ’ s “ reporting ” involved chiding President Trump for repeatedly making the point that the coronavirus not only came from China , but that China was not at all forthcoming regarding the particulars of it .
It was “ racist ” to be honest about what was going on .
You know what I don ’ t hear a lot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ convince me that Jake Tapper is not as bad as the other mainstream media hacks .
That was a problem for years .

CNN’s Moment of “Duh”
Happy March 276th, 2020, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. None of this is real.
Remember way back around March 90th or so when we were all so optimistic that we thought the end of the year and the change of the calendar might bring some respite?
GOOD TIMES.
As we move inexorably toward what will probably be a nightmarish sequel year rather than a relief, things just seem to get weirder and weirder.
There is, however, one thing that we can rely on to remain the same: CNN is the Enemy of the People and everyone who works for them is more than likely doing something unspeakable to a helpless marmoset as you read this.
DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW ADORABLE MARMOSETS ARE, PEOPLE? Shame on you, Wolf Blitzer, shame on you.
Throughout the pre-election phase of the Chinese Bat Flu plague, CNN’s function was to lie as much as possible about the pandemic and keep the panic porn spreading much faster than the virus itself. The goal was to scare people into voting for Joe Biden, a candidate even Joe Biden didn’t like.
Now that they feel that their strategy worked, the network thought it would dip its toes into the truth-telling pool on Monday. Remember, CNN has been journalism-averse for a great many years, so any attempts at being real reporters are now super awkward and clumsy.
The fun began when CNN proclaimed that it had an “exclusive” about China and the plague:
CNN exclusive: Vast trove of leaked documents shows China underreported Covid-19 numbers, took weeks to diagnose new cases and didn’t disclose a December flu spike in Hubei. https://t.co/mtXf3JM7NN pic.twitter.com/azzFFJ5yRO — The Lead CNN (@TheLeadCNN) November 30, 2020
To say that CNN is a little late to the party on this one would be doing things with the word “understatement” that are probably illegal in thirty countries. I know this year seems like it’s been a decade long, but I can still remember way back to last summer, when the bulk of CNN’s “reporting” involved chiding President Trump for repeatedly making the point that the coronavirus not only came from China, but that China was not at all forthcoming regarding the particulars of it. It was “racist” to be honest about what was going on.
You know what I don’t hear a lot of anymore? Fellow conservatives trying to convince me that Jake Tapper is not as bad as the other mainstream media hacks. That was a problem for years. I’ve maintained all along that Tapper was scum like the rest of them, but he was a favorite on the Right for a while for reasons I could never fathom. The bloom seems to be off Jakey boy’s rose now for the people on our side who used to give me grief for pointing out that he was awful.
That CNN’s on-air personalities were able to “report” this news with straight faces shows how far gone the American political MSM is. The execs probably thought that going through this dog-and-pony show would give them a little you-know-what covering for the egregiously biased advocacy they have been engaged in. As is so often noted these days, they don’t seem to know that everyone has internet now.
There may have been a time when CNN might be able to reorient itself and at least dabble in journalism on occasion. That time has passed. Four years of the most toxic Trump Derangement Syndrome on cable television brought them to a position where they’re relegated to splitting an audience with the other kids on the prog block over at MSNBC. There is a very real chance that CNN’s already bottom-dweller ratings could get even worse under a Biden administration. That was always the danger of their one-note, journalism-free, “hate Trump” strategy: what happens if Trump’s gone?
Full disclosure: I am going to greatly enjoy watching these pathological liars continue to flail.

thelibertydaily--2020-12-01--Leftist Lunatic Attacks the Rich, Gets Reminded She’s Rich

Far-left actress Bette Midler rips conservatives , wealthy people 'sailing by us in their yachts . '
Then she 's @ @ @ @ @ . '
I 'm a huge fan , but if I 'm not mistaken , @ @ @ @ @ ' one observer replied

Far-left actress Bette Midler and longtime member of the Hollywood elite is taking it on the chin for a tone-deaf tweet in which she ripped conservatives and wealthy people "sailing by us in their yachts."
What did she tweet?
Midler on Sunday hopped on Twitter and made her case:
"How will Americans make any progress with #MoscowMitch as #SenateMajorityLeader?" she asked. "He'll block every piece of legislation created to move us forward, because that's the definition of conservatism. We'll be treading water for years, except the rich, sailing by us in their yachts."
What was the reaction?
Some folks who read Midler's tweet were more than a little bit taken aback by her hypocrisy:
"I agree Bette & I'm a huge fan, but if I'm not mistaken, you're pretty rich," one commenter wrote back. "So while I agree that Mitch needs to go, you probably shouldn't call out rich ppl when you are one of them. Maybe call out rich ppl and get them to support the cause and help out. Just a suggestion."
"You Are 'the rich.' Lol," another observer said. "McConnell isn't the most conservative, but he's wise for blocking anything you call 'moving forward.' You wouldn't know the definition of conservatism even if someone explained it to you in 3rd grade-level terms in crayon."
"What is your net worth, Bette baby?" another commenter asked. "Why haven't you put your money where your loud mouth is and given it away voluntarily to help those worse off than you? Why do you still live as a rich person? Could it be because you're just another hypocrite piece of s**t. Why yes, yes it is."
A few other commenters offered visual aids along with their words:

Anything else?
This was far from the first time Midler let loose with an outrageous social media statement:


thelibertydaily--2020-12-01--Democrats Joe Manchin, Ocrazio-Cortex Continue Spat

Sen. Joe Manchin takes dig at fellow Democrat AOC : 'She 's more active on Twitter than anything else' The @ @ @ @ @ to eye

West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin took a swipe at fellow Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, appearing to question the New York representative's effectiveness in Congress and accusing her of being "more active on Twitter than anything else."
What are the details?
During a recent interview with the New York Times, Manchin was asked about the far-left congresswoman's reaction to him declaring on social media earlier this month, "We do not have some crazy socialist agenda, and we do not believe in defunding the police."
Although Manchin, a centrist, did not mention Democratic socialist Ocasio-Cortez by name in his message, she reacted by tweeting out a picture showing her glaring at him from behind.
"I guess she put the dagger stare on me," Manchin told the Times of the incident. "I don't know the young lady — I really don't. I never met her. I'm understanding she's not that active with her bills or in committee. She's more active on Twitter than anything else."
Manchin and Ocasio-Cortez represent opposite ends of the Democratic Party's political spectrum. In addition to speaking out against defunding the police, Manchin has vowed to stop far-left proposals such as packing the U.S. Supreme Court and ending the Senate filibuster. He is also against Medicare for All and is a critic of the widely panned Green New Deal that Ocasio-Cortez drafted with Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.).
While Ocasio-Cortez has shown herself to be a powerhouse at fundraising and social media, Manchin is a seasoned lawmaker and former governor with a critical role in deal-making as a moderate in the narrowly divided upper chamber.
The Dispatch editor-in-chief Jonah Goldberg argued earlier this month that Manchin is "more important" to the Democrats, even though Ocasio-Cortez tends to get more press.
He wrote in the Boston Herald:
AOC talks a lot about the glories of massive voter turnout, but she won her first primary in an extremely liberal district thanks to low voter turnout. It's not clear to me she understands her own district, never mind the political realities outside Queens. Meanwhile, Manchin's West Virginia is the fourth-most Republican state in the country — Trump beat Biden by almost 40 percentage points there. And yet Manchin keeps getting re-elected. Maybe he knows more about how to compete and win than she does? He certainly knows more about how government is supposed to function.

The mayor of D.C. and the governor of New York traveled to “high risk” states, Democratic leaders in New York were photographed attending a mostly maskless birthday party, and the governor of California and mayor of Philadelphia were photographed on separate occasions ignoring their own state restrictions on dining.
These incidents sparked outrage across the country in the past week. Video footage posted in late November showed Democratic New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy confronted by two angry protestors who yelled at him and told him, “you are such a dick.”
“How you doing? How you doing,” a woman asked the governor, who was dining outside without a mask, which is in accordance with New Jersey coronavirus restrictions. “You having fun with your family in the meantime? You’re having all kind of other bullshit going on at your house?”

He whined about the pressure that Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is receiving after becoming a nationally-reviled figure for stopping inquiry into Georgia ’ s corrupt electoral process .
“ This is elections .

Mexico is notorious for its alarming levels of violence, which is largely perpetuated by organized crime. In 2019, 34,582 people were murdered. So far in 2020, 26,431 people have been murdered from January to September.
Encinas claimed that Mexican authorities have discovered 1,399 mass graves in Mexico over the past two years. Of the 2,290 bodies discovered in the graves, 879 have been identified.
Mexico is not in good shape and that’s putting it lightly. America at least recognized this with Donald Trump in office. Trump was elected on an America First platform which stressed tough policies on the border and was not willing tolerate mass immigration like his predecessors.
Sadly, the presumptive president-elect Joe Biden is more concerned with trying to pass mass amnesty for 11 million illegal aliens and freezing deportations for 100 days.
Securing our Southern border is a recognition of the cold, hard truth that Mexico is falling apart, and it’s institutional and social rot could potentially make its way up north. Much to America’s chagrin, the next occupant of the White House will likely not recognize that. Should fraud allegations fail to invalidate the current results of the 2020 elections, America First patriots must act accordingly and make immigration a massive issue during the 2022 midterms, both in the primaries and general election.


thelibertydaily--2020-12-02--Witness: White GOP Observers Were Targeted in Detroit; Poll Workers Screamed ‘Get These MFers Out!’

`` We need to not normalise that ''

Last Updated on December 1, 2020
During Tuesday’s Michigan State Senate hearing on election issues, multiple witnesses presented testimony of voter fraud, ballot tampering and poll challenger intimidation. One GOP challenger explained how the pro-Biden poll workers’ naive assumption that she was a Democrat because of her gender and ethnicity made them let their guard down and talk to her about intimidating and removing GOP legal observers.
Witness Hima Kolanagireddy, who is an immigrant of color, corroborated the myriad statements of other witnesses regarding poll worker intimidation. Other witnesses reported screaming, threats, and harassment directed towards poll observers, as well as testimony about obese poll officials using their bodies to physically shield the ballots from being seen.
“There was a group of people who were agitators, who were trying to get GOP people in trouble,” Kolanagireddy said. “And from my skin color everyone assumes that I’m a Democrat. And so they just kind of came to me, and one of these ladies was saying ‘let’s get these MFs out.’ And I’m like, ‘MFs who?’ Because she thought I was a Democrat. And when I pulled out my [Republican] tag, she looked at me and she was like, ‘You’re on the wrong side.'”
“Then I noticed that they were going and getting all the white male Republicans out by sheer intimidation, by just saying ‘Oh, your mask slipped, you’re going to get people killed,’ like you’ve heard from so many other people.”
Upon seeing the wanton intimidation, Kolanagireddy then asked the GOP to get her a set of non-partisan credentials.
“The thing that bothered me was every time a GOP challenger was being thrown out, all the poll workers, Democrats, and everybody else were cheering, and that was very disappointing because [the GOP] people were just doing their job… and they were treated with utmost disrespect.”
“We were told to get the Republican challengers TF out” Especially the white males. pic.twitter.com/7iIRJdeqAr — PunishedElefant (@GamerElefent) December 1, 2020
National File previously reported on the harassment and intimidation of GOP poll challengers in Detroit, which culminated in Democrat poll workers boarding up the windows of the TCF Center after removing the Republican challengers so that no one could see inside:
Chaos is unfolding Wednesday at the TCF Center in Detroit, Michigan; where GOP poll watchers and lawyers were ordered to leave the room, and vote counters obscured the vision of onlookers by holding up cardboard signs and then boarding up the windows to prevent outraged voters from seeing how the ballots were being handled. In one video, a man with an official lanyard can be seen screaming, “We want all the Republican challengers out of this room!” Election supervisors, who appear to be predominantly female, can be seen yelling at GOP poll observers to move to the other side of the room, out of sight. “We’re not answering anymore questions!” a black female supervisor shouts. In another video, black female poll workers can be seen cheering every time a GOP poll watcher is ejected from the TCF Center. The view of onlookers was then obscured by cardboard signs, before the windows were ultimately boarded up by poll workers to prevent voters from seeing inside. GOP poll watchers were later seen chanting “Let us in” to no avail, as they were deliberately barred from being admitted into the premises. All the while, votes were counted were verification.
Another witness confirmed to the Senate Committee that she saw her supervisors at Dominion Voting Systems committing election fraud at the TCF Center.

The FBI considers the Thousand Talents Program an example of "China's non-traditional espionage against the United States" that seeks to recruit people to transfer U.S. trade secrets and taxpayer-funded research into the hands of the Chinese government.
