clashdaily--2020-08-17--Hey Patriots: Bongino Vists The Atilis Gym Bros For A KILLER Interview (VIDEO)

If you thought you loved their fighting spirit before , just wait until you see them in this interview .
They are NOT backing down to the tinpot tyrants !
Now that the Governor in New Jersey has pretty much declared war on Frank Trumbetti , Ian Smith and the Atilis Gym , they have become national symbols of the patriotic pushback against ridiculous government overreach .
New Jersey has pulled the gym ’ s business license .
These bros are answering back with their extended middle fingers .
They have the Constitution on their side and they are more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it… in court .
When these gym owners saw that the government was offering no safe protocols that would allow for the reopening of businesses , they went about developing their own effective safety protocols , and sharing their findings with local authorities .
There have been exactly ZERO cases of COVID in the thousands of visits they have had in their gym .
This is a political witchhunt that violates their constitutional rights , and they are fighting it accordingly .
Governor Murphy has made ZERO attempt to reach out to Atilis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their protocols , or their results .
Between them both , they have faced… “ 24 or 26 citations , 2 arrests , one member was arrested , 9 members were cited .
There was a health department shutdown , a court-ordered shutdown .
A health department official has never stepped foot inside of our building before that shutdown .
We have a contempt of court order .
We lost our business license , you name it .
Governor Murphy has thrown pretty much everything he can at us to stop us , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ once to talk to us about the program that we put in place.
” Beyond all the other considerations , this is a private club .
So any of the orders the government may make about ‘ the public ’ does not apply to their members , because it is a membership group , where members , it could be argued , are freely associating according to their Constitutional rights .
That ’ s just a taste of what you ’ ll see in this epic video .
This is the badass spirit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nation great to begin with .
It ’ s good to see there are still some heirs to that generation ’ s spirited defense of freedom willing to take that stand .
See the progression and development of this story as we have been tracking it here : Cops at NJ Gym : ‘ Formally , You Are All In Violation Of The Executive Order , On That Note , Have A Good Day ’ Atilis Gym : Owners Kick In The Boarded-Up Door , Reopen The Gym Check out ClashRadio for more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Big Dawg .
While you ’ re at it , here ’ s his latest book : Much of the Left loathes masculinity and they love to paint Jesus as a non-offensive bearded woman who endorses their agenda .
This book blows that nonsense all to hell .

It ’ s informative , bold , hilarious , and scary .
Giles has concluded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scripture that , If Masculinity Is ‘ Toxic ’ , Call Jesus Radioactive .

Now that the Governor in New Jersey has pretty much declared war on Frank Trumbetti, Ian Smith and the Atilis Gym, they have become national symbols of the patriotic pushback against ridiculous government overreach.
New Jersey has pulled the gym’s business license. These bros are answering back with their extended middle fingers. They have the Constitution on their side and they are more than ready to go to war over it… in court.
He said so.
“Bottom line is that the First Amendment of the constitution says I don’t need a business license. They can’t interfere with commerce. They’re gonna get sued for that.”
When these gym owners saw that the government was offering no safe protocols that would allow for the reopening of businesses, they went about developing their own effective safety protocols, and sharing their findings with local authorities.
There have been exactly ZERO cases of COVID in the thousands of visits they have had in their gym. This is a political witchhunt that violates their constitutional rights, and they are fighting it accordingly.
Governor Murphy has made ZERO attempt to reach out to Atilis Gym and inquire of their policy, their protocols, or their results.
Between them both, they have faced…
“24 or 26 citations, 2 arrests, one member was arrested, 9 members were cited. There was a health department shutdown, a court-ordered shutdown. A health department official has never stepped foot inside of our building before that shutdown. We have a contempt of court order. We lost our business license, you name it. Governor Murphy has thrown pretty much everything he can at us to stop us, but he has not yet reached out once to talk to us about the program that we put in place.”
Beyond all the other considerations, this is a private club. So any of the orders the government may make about ‘the public’ does not apply to their members, because it is a membership group, where members, it could be argued, are freely associating according to their Constitutional rights.
That’s just a taste of what you’ll see in this epic video.
This is the badass spirit of flipping off tyrants that made this nation great to begin with.
It’s good to see there are still some heirs to that generation’s spirited defense of freedom willing to take that stand.

State backpedals hard after announcing they would NOT be brightening the sky with those iconic beams of light in memoriam of 9/11 and the Twin Towers.
It seems to follow a pattern, doesn’t it?
Any public gathering that pours gas on the division and unrest in the country is given a pass, and described as wholesome and important, no matter how divisive or violent it becomes.
At the same time, the gatherings and symbols around which we come together and express unity just happen to be the ones opposed by those who would govern us.
Surely that’s merely a coincidence… right?
On Thursday, it was announced that the ‘Tribute In Light’ would not be shining this year. But now that decision has been reversed.
From the original announcement:
Michael Frazier, a spokesman for National September 11 Memorial & Museum, said organizers were concerned about the health risks to workers who would set up the display. “The world’s beloved twin beams of light regrettably will not shine over Lower Manhattan as part of this year’s tributes,” Frazier said in a statement. The Memorial & Museum is planning an alternative display that will include spires and facades of buildings in Manhattan being illuminated in blue, he said.

They said recorded name readings from the museum’s “In Memoriam” exhibition will be used instead of having relatives read the names in person. — ABCNews

A foundation spokesperson told PIX11 that it was a “done deal,” and the foundation’s website stated it would also be responsible for the “reading of the names.” “This year, amidst our hardships and obstacles, we will not forget them,” according to the website, adding that the organization would ensure the 140 readers’ health and safety, requiring that they wear masks and practice social distancing. — MSN
It’s official: The lights will NOT be turned off this year after all.

Minnesota Primary Winner Shows Up In Police Union Leader’s Neighborhood Screaming That The  ‘Grand Wizard’ Lives There (VIDEO)

Behold , the unmasked face of the Democrat Party .
They sure don ’ t look like the OLD Democrat party .
In Minnesota , which was ground zero of the situation where George Floyd died while in a police restraint , we now see a wannabe public servant who grabbed a few dozen agitators and marched to a private individual ’ s home to dox , defame , intimidate and harass him while he was doing nothing more than try to grill his family some supper .
The harassment at his home , and the accusations of him being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an interesting case for a defamation suit .
This Democrat , John Thompson , running for public office has a special hatred for police officers .
And he doesn ’ t mind stirring up ( inciting ? )
that same hatred among a crowd gathered to bother the Police Union leader while minding his business with his family in their own home .
He stood outside their home , with a crowd , plenty of cameras and a microphone , to scream threats and profanities at a family .
He has the audacity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ I ’ m a black man being terrorized by this f****ng Klansman right here .
We are terrorized by the Grand Wizard .
Y ’ all got the Grand Wizard living in your G**D*** neighborhood .
The Klan exists in Hugo Minnesota and it ’ s right here .
Don ’ t run !
Don ’ t run now , racist white people .
I ’ m here .
Oh yeah , we pull up .
We pull the f*** up .
” The only one doing the terrorizing in THIS clip @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at people on their own property .
And the bigot went on from there , blasting anyone who supports the police and cursing Hugo Minnesota .
None of this should really surprise anyone , considering his particular background in activism .
Here ’ s what he said after winning his party ’ s nomination : “ This is for Philando , ” said Thompson .
“ If it wasn ’ t for Philando being murdered , I ’ d still be comfortable being a machinist or equipment repair technician .
I have a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it.
” Thompson became a fixture at protests , marches and meetings after his friend of 11 years , Philando Castile was shot and killed by a police officer during a traffic stop four years ago in Falcon Heights .
He says instead of asking state lawmakers for legislation to end police brutality and racial disparities in Minnesota , he decided to become one instead .
“ If we are not at the table , we are on the menu , ” said Thompson .
“ I don ’ t want to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they don ’ t give you a seat at the table , bring your own chair.
” —Fox9 This cop-hating activist happens to be described as ‘ a friend of Philando Castille ’ .
In case you don ’ t remember that story , you can get back up to speed here : Watch : Disturbing Video Of The Fatal Police Shooting of Philando Castile Depending on your assumptions in that instance , it fit one of three storylines .
Either the cop ’ s fault for pulling his gun wrongly… Or Castille @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cop said on camera , ‘ Don ’ t reach for it .
Don ’ t pull it out .
Don ’ t pull it out !
‘ … or just a nightmare scenario where a charged situation and a misunderstanding of intent led a tragic misread of the events and a sadly avoidable use of lethal force .
For the record , the judge found the officer involved in the incident ‘ not guilty ’ .
Not that the outrage mob cares about the presumption of innocence at all .
These leftist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they believe they have enough political clout that anything they can not take by persuasion , they can seize through straight-up bullying tactics : Bully through economic extortion .
Bully through media narratives .
Bully through public pressure .
Bully through threat of force .
Bully through real violence .

clashdaily--2020-08-17--WATCH: Ted Cruz Rips The Masks Off Of BLM And The Antifa Tinkerpots — Who Are They REALLY?

Who exactly are these people , anyway ?
Pelosi , Nadler , Hirono and the Media seem hellbent on denying these agitators even exist while AOC , the Squad and other leftists cheer and throw money at them .
What do we know about them , really ?
That ’ s a question Ted Cruz and Michael Knowles sat down to answer .
As you know , there was a hearing recently on how those supposedly ‘ peaceful protesters ’ are burning down cities , targeting public buildings — like a courthouse in Portland — and deliberately injuring hundreds of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time of the filming , the most recent number was 277 injuries… in PORTLAND . )
But despite that injury count , these are ‘ mostly peaceful ’ riots , we are told .
If 247 school teachers , bureaucrats , or mail carriers were injured , Democrats would be issuing a full-scale inquiry .
But because it is law enforcement , this is an acceptable number since they have been deemed by the Democrats and the media as a valid political scapegoat .
They won ’ t discuss the injuries to our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mention them when describing them as ‘ thugs ’ , ‘ stormtroopers ’ , ‘ Gestapo ’ or other emotionally-loaded terms .
Maisey Hirono walked out of that Senate meeting because it cut contrary to her party ’ s narrative .
Their entire party refused to condemn — by name — leftist violence perpetrated by Antifa-affiliated political agitation groups .
Neither did any of them retract or condemn their own party ’ s use of enormously pejorative terms to unfairly impugn federal law enforcement officers .
For the first part of this video @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in that hearing , and what exactly the law enforcement in Portland has been dealing with .
The part about the kind of laser the anarchists are employing ( which they cover between the 6:30 mark and the 8:50 mark ) is something you will NEVER hear on the evening news coverage about the ‘ peaceful ’ protests .
Then they get into the really interesting part about WHO these people are .
If you ’ re looking at the time stamps , this part begins at about the 11-minute mark after discussing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the BLM question .
This clip is cued up to roughly that point , but you can back it up if you want to catch the rest .
The transcript below is a roughly accurate approximation of the conversation but stops short of being a verbatim reproduction .
It was edited for content and space .
Feel free to watch the full video for the complete text and proper context : The statement ‘ black lives matter ’ is a truism .
An overwhelming majority of Americans agree with it .
It should @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I think agrees , but there ’ s something ver separate from the organization that is called black lives matter .
…there ’ s an article I entered into the record of the hearing from the Washington Examiner that gives some of the history of the organization .
So it was founded by three radicals who described themselves in their own words as trained Marxists .
This is not me calling them Marxists they tell you they ’ re Marxists .
They tell you they ’ ve studied Marx and Lenin , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of [ Patrisse Khan-Cullors ] , who ’ s one of the co-founders .
She says she and Alicia Garza , another co-founder are trained Marxists , and the third co-founder , Opal Tometi is seen smiling in photograps with the communist dictator of Venezuela .
They ’ re not hiding this sort of thing .
One of the founders of the organization Black Lives Matter describes as her mentor Angela Davis .
Now , Angela Davis , I don ’ t have to call her communist .
SHE tells you she was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but twice , the vice-presidential nominee of the Communist Party of the United States .
So she ’ s an avowed Communist Marxist and by the way , you know is rabidly anti-Semitic , rabidly anti-Israel .
Now Susan Rosenberg is the vice-chair of the board of directors of Thousand Currents .
Now what is Thousand Currents ?
Thousand Currents is what is funding the organization Black Lives Matter .
Who is Susan Rosenberg ?
She was part of the revolutionary military group known as the May 19th Communist organization affiliated with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of weapons and explosive charges and sentenced to 58 years in prison .
So she ’ s a convicted terrorist .
By the way , she was pardoned by Bill Clinton on the last day of his Presidency .
… in the 1960s and 70s she was on the FBI ’ s most-wanted list .
She was caught in 1984 , unloading hundreds of pounds of dynamite and weapons including a submachine gun .
So we ’ re not talking like a sort of mild little rebel .
So Garza , one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about how convicted cop killer Asante Shakur is one of her main inspirtions .
Now Shakur is — right now , today — on the FBI ’ s most-wanted list .
There ’ s a million-dollar reward fo Shakur ’ s information leading to her capture .
She ’ s believed to be hiding in Cuba and she was a member of the Black Liberation Army , another terrorist organization .
She ’ s wanted for escaping from prison , and she was in prison , serving a life sentence for murdering a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ point-blank .
It ’ s not like these folks … vaguely know each other .
…Cullors , one of the three founders wrote a memoir entitled ‘ When They Call You A Terrorist ’ , a Black Lives Matter Memoir .
So it ’ s like what we ’ re all about .
The forward is written by Angela Davis and the epigraph is written by Shakur , the cop killer .

Saturday marked day 80 of nightly protests against “police brutality” and “systemic racism” in Portland, Oregon. These “peaceful protests” often get pretty wild at night and have been declared riots. This is precisely what happened on Saturday night.
On Sunday, more protests were scheduled for the afternoon, and, once more, it got out of control at night. A man who crashed his truck was violently assaulted by protesters.
A man appeared to have been punched and kicked unconscious by demonstrators just blocks away from a peaceful protest in Portland as unrest continued in Oregon’s biggest city. Multiple videos posted online apparently showed the man sitting in the street next to a truck that he had been driving, which had crashed and come to a stop on a sidewalk Sunday night, news outlets reported. People were crowded around him and he appeared to have been punched at least once and later kicked in the head — knocking him flat. The man was later loaded into an ambulance and taken to a hospital with serious injuries, Portland police Sgt. Kevin Allen told The Oregonian/Oregon Live. The truck was towed. It was unclear what exactly led up to the crash and the confrontation. Source: Associated Press
Portland Police issued a statement which said that at around 7 pm, peaceful protesters gathered and had speeches in Chapman Square and Lownsdale Square. The protesters were also blocking vehicular traffic.
At 10:27 pm, officers responded to an incident where a truck had crashed and the driver had been assaulted by protesters. “The report said protesters were chasing the truck before it crashed, and they assaulted the driver after the crash. Officers encounters[sic] a hostile crowd and a squad from the Rapid Response Team (RRT) responded to help secure the scene while the investigation was underway. The driver was transported to the hospital by ambulance with serious injuries. The incident is under investigation and no arrests have been made.”
Drew Hernandez, a citizen journalist with a popular YouTube channel, Lives Matter, was on the ground in Portland and captured some absolutely shocking videos of the incident and what led up to it.

Riots In Redneck America…Beware

I ’ ve been told by others in the media that I should stay away from using the term “ redneck , ” that it is highly controversial and is synonymous with racism .
So , for many years I did just that .
Instead of saying “ redneck ” I would use the term “ rural.
” To be truthful , I never liked being told what to write and what to censor .
It smacked of tyranny to me .
I remember almost a decade ago I was being interviewed for a recorded radio show by a black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ referred to myself as a “ redneck.
” Over the break , he cautioned me against using that word .
He informed me that in the black community it is synonymous with racism .
Being from the country , I ’ d never heard that before .

I’ve been told by others in the media that I should stay away from using the term “redneck,” that it is highly controversial and is synonymous with racism. So, for many years I did just that. Instead of saying “redneck” I would use the term “rural.” To be truthful, I never liked being told what to write and what to censor. It smacked of tyranny to me.
I remember almost a decade ago I was being interviewed for a recorded radio show by a black broadcaster. During the show, I referred to myself as a “redneck.” Over the break, he cautioned me against using that word. He informed me that in the black community it is synonymous with racism. Being from the country, I’d never heard that before. You see, to me, the term “redneck” is synonymous with a white person from the country. In fact, that is much closer to the historical dictionary definition than the one presently being espoused nationwide.
So, I went to dictionary dot com and looked it up.
redneck A slang term, usually for a rural white southerner who is politically conservative, racist, and a religious fundamentalist (see fundamentalism). This term is generally considered offensive. It originated in reference to agricultural workers, alluding to how the back of a person’s neck will be burned by the sun if he works long hours in the fields.
Like so many other words in the American vocabulary, it has been hijacked and perverted. Gay, used to mean happy; now it means homosexual. The police used to be good. Now they are evil and cruel. Christians used to be loving and compassionate; now they are all bigots unless they espouse proper political views.
The original meaning of “redneck” was this:
Noun – an uneducated white farm laborer, especially from the South. Source: dictionary.com
As I ponder that definition, I can’t help but conclude that it’s a noble thing to be a redneck, or, at least it used to be. Let’s break down the historical definition:
Uneducated: By that, we mean little formal education, as in, no college degree. Maybe you have a high school diploma, a GED, or you’re even a high school dropout.
Farm Laborer: Okay, so you work on a farm. Maybe you pick crops or milk cows.
From the South: That’s right, you are below the Mason-Dixon line, living in a southern state.
But I have to ask a few questions here.
First, why is it bad to not have a college degree? Think about that for a second or two. Who are we talking about? The people who drive trucks. Without them, the store shelves would be empty and you’d have no gas for your car. When your toilet plugs up and you can’t fix it because you never learned how…Who do you call? You call an uneducated person who learned a trade that you can’t live without. To be honest, without uneducated plumbers, we’d all be living in a world of shit. What about when your electricity goes out? You have a master’s degree in sociology, but you can’t make the lights work. You can’t fix the sink; you can’t change the oil in your car.
Let’s be honest here, many of you highly educated, suburban rich people are unfunctional and virtually helpless unless you’re in front of a computer debugging code or analyzing the stock market.
But now you say, “Hold on, Skip. We’re talking about uneducated farmers.” Yes, that’s true. So, where would we be without uneducated farm workers? Most of us would starve to death. Be honest here. Michael Bloomberg was quoted as saying this about farmers:
“It’s a process. You dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on top, you add water, up comes corn. You can learn that.”
Those are the words of a very educated and extremely ignorant man. I’m not a farmer, but I’ve been gardening my whole life, and I’m here to tell you that it’s not that easy. Joe Biden has a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Delaware, but he can’t fix his own toilet. He has a law degree from Syracuse University College of Law, but he can’t change the oil in his car or wire a light switch.
Second, why is it intrinsically bad to work on a farm? Farming is an inherently respectable profession with a long and noble tradition. President Jimmy Carter was a peanut farmer from Georgia. George Washington loved agriculture and ran a farm in Virginia. Farmers work very hard and they remain close to the earth and to common sense. Academia? Not so much.
Third, why is it intrinsically bad to be from the south? I would never dream of making disparaging remarks about a person from the inner city, simply because of their geographical home, but that’s what happens to southerners these days. The bigoted stereotype is this: people from the south are weak-minded and simple; they are stupid; they drink beer and shoot guns; they blindly and foolishly cling to guns and religion.
So, what does this have to do with rioting in rural America?
Over the weekend in Portland, a man was dragged from his car and severely beaten, and now he’s in the hospital in critical condition. The people who orchestrate and support the Black Lives Matter and Antifa protests are primarily from the school of higher learning. No matter how noble the cause may have started, it has since devolved into chaos and anarchy where innocent lives are cruelly taken and small business owners are victimized and their stores are destroyed, leaving them paupers.
And here’s to the point: don’t come to rural America to rape, pillage and plunder. It won’t end well for you. Now, some might misconstrue that as a threat, but don’t be so hastily inclined. I’m not threatening you; I’m trying to help you. You must understand that uneducated white people from the south don’t know any better. They’re so stupid as to believe they have the right to defend themselves while someone is dragging them from their truck and beating them senseless. After all, they are silly, uneducated rednecks.
Now, I must further caution you about coming up north to the rural Midwest and trying the same tactics. What is taken as noble and good in Seattle is frowned upon in fly-over country. You have to understand that Midwesterners are a backward people, still believing in the right to keep and bear arms; they go to church, even when the governor tries to close it down. They grow their own food; they fix their own cars; they even unplug their own toilets.
To put it quite bluntly, rural Americans are a soft-headed and backward culture.
And now, let’s make it personal. I’m an educated man, author of 16 books, host of a radio show; in that regard, I’m like you. However, I own lots of guns; I can change my oil and unplug my own commode. I guess that makes me the best of both worlds.

By now most of us backward country folk have figured out what still eludes Portland and Seattle: Appeasement doesn’t work.
I’ve taught over 15,000 people to carry concealed in my home state. Now listen, Portland looters. Don’t come to my small town. The laws of deadly force don’t change simply because you’re angry and you feel wronged and entitled. Rural people, as witless and insensitive as they are, just don’t care about your politics.
Now, don’t get me wrong. If you want to come on out to the country and enjoy the lakes and streams, go fishing and use our beaches, come on out. You are welcome. However, if you journey out here to stir things up, well, then be prepared for some pushback. We don’t allow that, and we will educate you.

clashdaily--2020-08-17--As Biden Continues To Avoid Real Reporters, He Has A ‘Conversation’ With Cardi B

No questions from reporters are allowed–but he ’ s chatting with a rapper .
The Biden campaign has hidden the former Vice President from serious journalists since he made the announcement that Kamala Harris would be his running mate .
They won ’ t even allow questions after media events .
Chris Wallace noted after his sit-down interview with President Trump that Joe Biden has refused to do a similar interview with him .
Guy Benson had Wallace on his radio show and Wallace said , “ the Biden campaign isn ’ t putting anybody out .
And this just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vice president not doing really any serious interviews , not answering any questions since the rollout .
I don ’ t you know , you can–you can try and I understand and has worked pretty well .
And he continues to lead with what I ’ ll call the basement strategy .
I don ’ t think you can hide from now until Election Day .
I just–I just don ’ t think it ’ s possible.
” Trending : WTF : Austin Slashing Its Police Budget To Comply To Left ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Watch the Biden camp shoo out the press : Biden ’ s first formal interview since he announced that Kamala Harris will join him on the Democratic ticket will be with ABC News ’ s World News Tonight anchor David Muir and Good Morning America ‘ s Robin Roberts which will air on Sunday , August 23 .
Harris will be joining him for the coverage of the “ history-making choice.
” But even though Joe has no time for journalists , he does seem to have a few minutes available to chat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cardi B .
You remember Cardi B , right ?
She ’ s the stripper-turned-rapper who used to drug men and rob them .
She ’ s known for her surgically-enhanced curves , long nails , New York accent , stripper clothes , twerking , disgustingly lewd lyrics that she calls “ female empowerment , ” and her bizarre , unhinged Instagram rants .
Oh , and she doesn ’ t appear to be all that bright–after all , she backed Bernie in the primary .
Cardi B. wants lower taxes but also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t seem to understand that those two things are mutually exclusive .
Check out what happened when she realized that she had to pay 40 % of her income in federal tax because she had finally made it .
See , now that kind talk from Cardi B. makes sense .
But she ’ s also for Medicare-for-All , free college , and government-run childcare .
In a special piece for Elle magazine , a Zoom call was set up between the former Vice President and the rapper .
They talked about getting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , racial injustice , police brutality , as well as her desire for a whole lot of government-provided “ free ” stuff .
The conversation began on the wrong foot and it was sort of a sign that it wasn ’ t going to go so well .
Cardi B : Oh , snap .
Is this real ?
Hi , Biden , how are you ?
Joe Biden : How are you ?
The name ’ s Joe .
CB : Well , hello there , Joe .
Throughout the Zoom call @ @ @ @ @ @ @ former Vice President as “ Biden.
” And Joe looked stunned .
It also appeared to be edited .
To his credit , Joe asked what the issues that were important to Cardi B. and her fans .
She said it was Medicare-for-All , free college tuition , free childcare , and even more free stuff from the government .
She also said that she wants Trump out of the Oval Office and that is her number 1 priority .
She said that she wanted “ justice ” with tougher laws for police @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the laws shouldn ’ t be “ unfair ” to black people , either .
But when it came down to paying for all of the free stuff that she wants , well , she still doesn ’ t want her taxes to go up .
CB : Because let me tell you about my college experience .
I ’ m from New York , and when you ’ re in high school or middle school , they give you a free MetroCard for you to be able to get to your school @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
When I was in college , I didn ’ t get any more [ free ] transportation .
So I had to get a job , because I needed $ 5 every single day to be able to go from Washington Heights to Chambers Street .
And I had to feed myself .
Sometimes I had to wait from 1 p.m. all the way to 9 p.m. to get home to eat .
Because I couldn ’ t afford McDonald ’ s or any restaurants on my break .
I was starving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ So I just feel like that is so important , to finance students while they ’ re in college .
But what a lot of people are concerned about is , if the government gives us [ these things ] , are they going to raise our taxes ?
Because clearly nobody wants to pay so much in taxes .
Sometimes , when my taxes come in , I ’ m like , “ Oh my gosh , I ’ m depressed , oh Lord , let me see my Birkin collection.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But ] when you see the taxes coming off your check , you don ’ t understand , because you feel like you ’ re putting in so many hours .
People want to know , can you provide college education , this [ health care ] plan , without a big chunk of taxes coming out of our checks ?
JB : Yes , we can .
And the way we can pay for all of this is doing practical things , like making sure that everybody has to pay their fair @ @ @ @ @ @ @ corporation should pay less than 15 percent tax .
It was at this point that a staffer jumped in and said that they were out of time .
You can watch the meeting of the minds here : Talk about a softball interview on the first day of the Democratic convention .
Do Democrats really think that Biden is going to last all the way to November ?
Things are not looking good for their hero…

And this just is of a piece with the the vice president not doing really any serious interviews, not answering any questions since the rollout. I don’t you know, you can–you can try and I understand and has worked pretty well. And he continues to lead with what I’ll call the basement strategy. I don’t think you can hide from now until Election Day. I just–I just don’t think it’s possible.”
Watch the Biden camp shoo out the press:

Biden’s first formal interview since he announced that Kamala Harris will join him on the Democratic ticket will be with ABC News’s World News Tonight anchor David Muir and Good Morning America‘s Robin Roberts which will air on Sunday, August 23. Harris will be joining him for the coverage of the “history-making choice.”
But even though Joe has no time for journalists, he does seem to have a few minutes available to chat with the intellectual bright light that is Cardi B.
You remember Cardi B, right? She’s the stripper-turned-rapper who used to drug men and rob them. She’s known for her surgically-enhanced curves, long nails, New York accent, stripper clothes, twerking, disgustingly lewd lyrics that she calls “female empowerment,” and her bizarre, unhinged Instagram rants. Oh, and she doesn’t appear to be all that bright–after all, she backed Bernie in the primary.
Cardi B. wants lower taxes but also wants free stuff. She doesn’t seem to understand that those two things are mutually exclusive.
Check out what happened when she realized that she had to pay 40% of her income in federal tax because she had finally made it.
See, now that kind talk from Cardi B. makes sense. But she’s also for Medicare-for-All, free college, and government-run childcare.
In a special piece for Elle magazine, a Zoom call was set up between the former Vice President and the rapper. They talked about getting Trump out of office, the pandemic, racial injustice, police brutality, as well as her desire for a whole lot of government-provided “free” stuff.
The conversation began on the wrong foot and it was sort of a sign that it wasn’t going to go so well.
Cardi B: Oh, snap. Is this real? Hi, Biden, how are you?
Joe Biden: How are you? The name’s Joe.
CB: Well, hello there, Joe.
Throughout the Zoom call, the rapper kept referring to the former Vice President as “Biden.” And Joe looked stunned.
It also appeared to be edited.
Joe Biden couldn't even get through an interview with Cardi B without it being edited… Watch how the lighting and frame changes 3 times throughout this clip of one answer? pic.twitter.com/qEAF8KxLhw — Abigail Marone (@abigailmarone) August 17, 2020
To his credit, Joe asked what the issues that were important to Cardi B. and her fans. She said it was Medicare-for-All, free college tuition, free childcare, and even more free stuff from the government. She also said that she wants Trump out of the Oval Office and that is her number 1 priority. She said that she wanted “justice” with tougher laws for police officers who killed black people, but the laws shouldn’t be “unfair” to black people, either.
But when it came down to paying for all of the free stuff that she wants, well, she still doesn’t want her taxes to go up.
CB: Because let me tell you about my college experience. I’m from New York, and when you’re in high school or middle school, they give you a free MetroCard for you to be able to get to your school, and they gave me free lunch. When I was in college, I didn’t get any more [free] transportation. So I had to get a job, because I needed $5 every single day to be able to go from Washington Heights to Chambers Street. And I had to feed myself. Sometimes I had to wait from 1 p.m. all the way to 9 p.m. to get home to eat. Because I couldn’t afford McDonald’s or any restaurants on my break. I was starving, and I felt so discouraged. So I just feel like that is so important, to finance students while they’re in college.
But what a lot of people are concerned about is, if the government gives us [these things], are they going to raise our taxes? Because clearly nobody wants to pay so much in taxes. Sometimes, when my taxes come in, I’m like, “Oh my gosh, I’m depressed, oh Lord, let me see my Birkin collection.” That is a little joke. [But] when you see the taxes coming off your check, you don’t understand, because you feel like you’re putting in so many hours. People want to know, can you provide college education, this [health care] plan, without a big chunk of taxes coming out of our checks?
JB: Yes, we can. And the way we can pay for all of this is doing practical things, like making sure that everybody has to pay their fair share. [For example] no corporation should pay less than 15 percent tax.
It was at this point that a staffer jumped in and said that they were out of time.
You can watch the meeting of the minds here:
Talk about a softball interview on the first day of the Democratic convention.
Yeesh.
Do Democrats really think that Biden is going to last all the way to November?
Things are not looking good for their hero…


clashdaily--2020-08-17--‘President’ Kamala Harris Is Coming For Your Guns–Constitutional Or Not!

Let ’ s be honest , a vote for Joe Biden is a vote for Kamala Harris to be President .
Ironically , she was literally the least popular Democrat among Democrats in the primary , dropping out before the Iowa Caucus , but she is the correct gender and genetic makeup .
In certain circles of the upper echelons of the Democrat Party the rapid cognitive decline of Joe Biden is being whispered about .
Perhaps , it is the pressure of the national stage , which he has largely avoided , but his decline is worsening .
When @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opens his mouth it is painfully obvious…something is not right with old Joe .
He ’ s slipping and fast .
Many strategists and even Joe himself have said that he would only be a one term president due to his advanced age .
For the purposes of this article , I will submit that I don ’ t think Joe Biden will make it through even a first term .
I will take it so far that I doubt he would last three months , and he ’ ll step down to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
If Joe Biden wins the presidency…we will have a President Kamala Harris within months not years .
Count on it .
A President Harris is a terrifying thing if you are a freedom-loving American .
She has many shortfalls and a history in both word and deed displaying her disdain for the freedoms and rights of the average American .
As a prosecutor and attorney general , she was found easily corruptible and wanting .
She was and is a power-hungry woman willing to say and do who or whatever it takes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ climbed over a powerful old man once to ascend , ( See Willie Brown ) and Joe won ’ t even stand a chance .
Trending : WTF : Austin Slashing Its Police Budget To Comply To Left ’ s Demands — Here ’ s The 411 What will be one of President Harris ’ first orders of business ?
How does she feel about your second amendment rights ?
Kamala Harris has told us exactly what she plans to do with your guns .
She has unequivocally stated she is coming for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ political hyperbole .
Mark Oliva of National Shooting Sports Foundation said in an interview with the Washington Free Beacon , “ During her short-lived presidential campaign , she demanded gun-control legislation within 100 days and threatened executive action if Congress didn ’ t deliver .
Senator Harris was clear when she said gun control would be an administration priority .
Her platform included entertaining forced confiscation of lawfully owned semiautomatic rifles , redefining ‘ sporting purpose ’ for lawful firearm possession , criminalizing private firearm transfers and repealing the Protection of Lawful Commerce @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she supports politicizing the Department of Justice and using the weight of the federal government to harass a constitutionally protected industry in a series of frivolous lawsuits to bankrupt manufacturers.
” She also stated during a public policy forum that she was for a mandatory buyback program .
“ We have to have a buyback program , and I support a mandatory gun buyback program , ” she said .
“ It ’ s got to be smart , we got to do it the right way .
But there are 5 million @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some estimate as many as 10 million , and we ’ re going to have to have smart public policy that ’ s about taking those off the streets but doing it the right way.
” Since she made that statement about a year ago American ’ s have purchased record numbers of weapons in response to the uncertain times created by the pandemic and the rioting in the streets while liberal politicians are demanding to defund the police .
The average citizen clearly realizes in the future their defense may increasingly fall @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the FBI stated there were more than 3.9 million background checks completed .
In just the first half of 2020 , millions upon millions of new firearms have been privately purchased , and in most cases to first-time gun buyers .
Most commonly these new weapons are semiautomatic handguns and AR-style rifles and no they aren ’ t for hunting .
They are for self-protection in an increasingly dangerous world .
Kamala Harris says she supports a Mandatory Buyback Program .
What exactly is that ?
As the word mandatory implies…it is not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and enforced .
It ’ s a fancy political way to say we ’ re going to confiscate your weapons against your will .
It will most likely be focused on AR-style rifles as they have proven to be the liberal politician ’ s nemesis mostly because they are so scary looking !
FYI…AR rifles are simply semi-automatic rifles nothing more .
But when President Harris outlaws them and demands that all “ Assault Weapons ” be turned in , she won ’ t be asking .
She will be demanding .
Enforcement @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be sporting .
This is what she means when she says , “ we ’ re going to have to have smart public policy that ’ s about taking those off the streets but doing it the right way.
” The truth is there is no smart way about it , and if you do it the wrong way you might just spark a civil war with the most heavily armed people in America .
The phrase made famous by Charlton Heston ; you can have my weapon when you pry it from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on many American ’ s lips…millions more than even six months ago .
Enforcement of a mandatory gun buyback would likely be accomplished by other means than the direct conflict created by sending officers house to house .
She would use crafty tactics such as listing people through gun registration , or using the power of the IRS or voting rights perhaps ?
I ’ m sure there will be many smart means at her disposal all with the same end goal , disarm legal gun owners , and confiscate your weapons in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them .
I guarantee that a vote for Joe Biden will mean Kamala Harris will be making a criminal of all legal gun owners who refuse to surrender their weapons to the government .
I ’ m simply taking her at her word .
She ’ s promised if congress won ’ t do it , then she ’ ll do it by executive fiat in her first 100 days .
A President Kamala Harris is coming for your guns , there ’ s just no other way to say it .
Vote @ @

clashdaily--2020-08-17--Time To Privatize The Postal Service

Time To Privatize The Postal Service

With all the arguing going on over using mail-in ballots for this year ’ s general elections ( something that will result in fraudulent voting ) as well as its removal of mailboxes in some areas , one thing is clear : the United States Postal Service needs to be privatized ( i.e .
sold to a private entity ) .
The woes of the Postal Service have been going on for quite some time .
It keeps increasing the rates of stamps , it suffers from financial problems ( due to technological advances , labor costs , and mismanagement @ @ @ @ @ @ @ instances of thousands ( if not millions ) of pieces of mail not being delivered .
Meanwhile , the Postal Service has been getting bailouts from Congress to make up for its financial situation .
So as I mentioned in previous articles , the Postal Service should be sold at a reasonable price ( perhaps even equivalent to its most recent budget ) to the private sector .
Doing so would be beneficial to the taxpayers as well as being a source of revenue .
In addition , the Postal Service can undergo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Postal Service ’ s monopoly on delivering first-class and standard mail .
• Abolish the Postal Regulatory Commission and the Citizens ’ Stamp Advisory Committee .
• Since the Postal Service is exempt from paying property taxes , keeping it exempt after it is privatized might be a good idea until it is out of the red ( i.e .
a grace period of two years , maybe five ) .
• The Postal Service is also exempt from receiving parking tickets .
This exemption can be done away with ( or perhaps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ period in that area ) .
• Eliminate the Postal Service ’ s unions , which are partly responsible for it being in the red .
• Repeal the law forbidding the Postal Service from closing any of its offices for solely economic reasons .
Once that is done , the Postal Service can close around 2,000 of its 31,000 + post offices ( 80 % of them have lost money ) and continue to establish contract post offices .
In fact , it can probably consolidate some of its offices if necessary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pension requirements and replace them with private sector options ( which would be less costly ) .
• The Postal Service has also suffered financial setbacks due to the digital age ( i.e .
the internet , email ) .
So the Postal Service needs to become more technologically advanced , and that includes going digital .
Doing so would reduce delivery costs .
• Like any private entity , allow people ( American citizens only ) to invest in the Postal Service- i.e .
put it on the Stock Market .
There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not the Postal Service should have its offices open on Saturdays .
Earlier I have advocated it being closed on Saturdays , but if it is privatized then whoever owns it should make that decision .
If so , then it would depend on which of its offices are doing well financially on Saturdays .
If privately owned , the Postal Service might even be able to extend its hours on weekdays .
Trending : WTF : Austin Slashing Its Police Budget To Comply To Left ’ s Demands — Here ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ privatizing the Postal Service would require an amendment to the Constitution .
That is not the case .
The United States Constitution ( Article I , Section 8 ) authorizes Congress to establish post offices and post roads , but it does not require Congress to do so .
Keep in mind the post offices in the early days of America were private entities , and would continue to be private until the big government advocates of the Twentieth Century came along .
Thus , a Constitutional Amendment is not required in order @ @ @ @ @ @ @ action is all that is needed .

With all the arguing going on over using mail-in ballots for this year’s general elections (something that will result in fraudulent voting) as well as its removal of mailboxes in some areas, one thing is clear: the United States Postal Service needs to be privatized (i.e. sold to a private entity).
