Projection
There is so much to unpack in Parkhomenko’s tweet – from the clearly demonstrated mental instability to the obvious Napoleon complex he is suffering from – it is ridiculous.
We have the ‘people from Tennessee are inbred’ angle.
Not to mention projection in calling somebody else “trash.”

Surely the media will cover his words 24/7, just as they would if a Trump associate said something similar to a female lawmaker. And likewise, Twitter will suspend his account for behavior which violates their standards.

Parkhomenko is demonstrating the level of class you’d expect from somebody who has been subservient to Hillary Clinton for his entire adult life.

“ Late Night ” host Seth Meyers spoke out on Monday night to shame millions of supporters of President Donald Trump , claiming that they are all “ sociopathic ” simply because they want to get children back to school as soon as possible .
Meyers , who is believed to be worth more than $ 10 million and has the luxury of being able to work from home during this pandemic , used his monologue last night to blame virtually everything that is going wrong right now on Trump and his supporters .
“ You [ Trump ] rushed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the advice of your own scientists just to please the Dow , ” Meyers said .
“ Now we have 60,000 new cases every day and we ’ re banned from traveling to Europe .
Do you know what that means ?

” Not stopping there , Meyers went to far as to call Trump supporters “ sociopathic.
” “ When you ’ re talking about forcing children and teachers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deadly pandemic you failed to stop , without even putting a plan in place to protect them , that ’ s how you know you belong to a sociopathic political movement.

“ We ’ re at the mercy of a sadistic oaf who ’ s being shielded by a political party that cares more about statues than people.

Meyers ignored the fact that the Democrat-run California has just shut down its economy again because of surges in coronavirus cases in the state , particularly in the super-liberal Los Angeles .
President Trump spoke out on Monday to double down on his goal of sending American children back to school in the fall .
“ The schools should be opened .
Kids want to go to schools .
You ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things closed , ” the president said .
Liberals like Meyers are of course in no rush to see schools reopen again because they want to drag all of this out as long as possible in the hopes that it will cost Trump the election .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-14--Cuomo Slammed For Selling COVID Poster As New York Leads The Nation In Deaths

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo received a healthy dose of backlash after unveiling a poster he designed celebrating New York ’ s response to the coronavirus .
That ’ s right , it was Arts and Crafts day Monday as Cuomo showed off his drawing skills to reporters who eagerly lapped it up .
The title of his masterpiece is “ New York Tough , ” and celebrates his response to the pandemic .
The poster features a plane labeled “ Europeans ” – a suggestion that the virus actually generated in Europe rather than in China .
It blames @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the White House Task Force for providing “ clouds of confusion ” over the pandemic response .
There ’ s even a drawing of he and his staff at their press briefing desk .
Above the drawing is a quote from the grand emperor himself : “ Wake up America !
Forget the politics , get smart !
” The trouble with Cuomo ’ s poster isn ’ t simply the embarrassment New Yorkers feel when they see their governor engaging in third-grade level artwork .
Nowhere on the poster will you see @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nation in the number of deaths from COVID-19 – far and away more than any other state .
More than double that of New Jersey who ranks second , and more than the next three leading states combined .
Nor will you see mention of the nursing home scandal that has largely been ignored by mainstream media .
A scandal that saw Cuomo issue an executive order which forced nursing homes to take on patients that had tested positive for coronavirus , leading to the deaths of thousands upon thousands of seniors .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ blame President Trump for his failures using pictures that his uneducated fans can understand , fact-checkers have already debunked his claims .
Politifact even said blaming Trump for the nursing home scandal was a lie .
Even crazier , Cuomo is selling the posters online to anybody dumb enough to purchase one for $ 14.50 plus shipping and handling .
He insists the state will not make a profit off of it .
As one could imagine , there was plenty of backlash to the poster .
Not from New York media who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ framing them for their office , but from social media viewers .
“ He ’ s actually selling his self-congratulatory poster that ’ s centered around a visual representation of 32,000 deaths , ” Noam Blum , associate editor of Tablet Magazine tweeted .
“ Was Cuomo always this repugnant or does this much media flattery make anyone lose perspective ?
” Easy answer – he ’ s always been this repugnant .
Even CNN ’ s Jake Tapper blasted Cuomo for being slightly out of touch .
“ NY state has lost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” he tweeted .
“ So while it ’ s great that the numbers have gone down , it ’ s perplexing to see crowing , Cuomo going on Fallon , etc .
No other state has lost as many lives , not even close.
” As juvenile as the poster is , it may not be the most asinine thing Cuomo has done to celebrate his deadly coronavirus response .
The level of chutzpah one has to have , knowing that your incompetence led to thousands of elderly people dying , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and paper mache mountains is off the charts .

What It’s Missing
The trouble with Cuomo’s poster isn’t simply the embarrassment New Yorkers feel when they see their governor engaging in third-grade level artwork.
It’s the complete lack of context.
Nowhere on the poster will you see any mention of the state leading the nation in the number of deaths from COVID-19 – far and away more than any other state. More than double that of New Jersey who ranks second, and more than the next three leading states combined.
Nor will you see mention of the nursing home scandal that has largely been ignored by mainstream media. A scandal that saw Cuomo issue an executive order which forced nursing homes to take on patients that had tested positive for coronavirus, leading to the deaths of thousands upon thousands of seniors.
And while he tries once again to blame President Trump for his failures using pictures that his uneducated fans can understand, fact-checkers have already debunked his claims. Politifact even said blaming Trump for the nursing home scandal was a lie.
Seriously how much of an ego maniac do you have to be to make a poster of yourself while 30,000 New Yorkers died on your watch? Thousands of those were seniors. Every day I’m more grossed out by @NYGovCuomo. It’s really quite something. — Janice Dean (@JaniceDean) July 14, 2020

Backlash
Even crazier, Cuomo is selling the posters online to anybody dumb enough to purchase one for $14.50 plus shipping and handling. He insists the state will not make a profit off of it.
As one could imagine, there was plenty of backlash to the poster. Not from New York media who are most likely ordering these posters and framing them for their office, but from social media viewers.
“He’s actually selling his self-congratulatory poster that’s centered around a visual representation of 32,000 deaths,” Noam Blum, associate editor of Tablet Magazine tweeted. “Was Cuomo always this repugnant or does this much media flattery make anyone lose perspective?”
Easy answer – he’s always been this repugnant.
Journalist Jeryl Bier wrote, “The narcissism and gall is stunning.”
Stunning, but not unexpected.
Even CNN’s Jake Tapper blasted Cuomo for being slightly out of touch.
“NY state has lost more than 32,000 lives to COVID-19,” he tweeted. “So while it’s great that the numbers have gone down, it’s perplexing to see crowing, Cuomo going on Fallon, etc. No other state has lost as many lives, not even close.”

“ Trump ’ s COVID scandal makes Nixon ’ s Watergate look innocent , ” Cuomo said on Monday .

“Because I think the more people who can actually get to the polls, whether by mail or in person and get their votes counted, then we are going to have the kind of election we should have,” she said. “And then it will be a win both in the popular vote and the Electoral College.”

“ While you may look at a shooting by an officer and say , ‘ Oh , they could have shot him in the leg , they didn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ’ that ’ s not the test under California law , ” Lacey explained .
“ The test is when somebody ’ s life is in danger.

“ If you ’ re talking about redistributing funds , I absolutely agree with that , ” Lacey said .
“ I ’ ve advocated for mental @ @ @ @ @ @ @ color since 2013 .

Senator Mazie Hirono pulled no punches in an interview with MSNBC stating supporters of President Trump are “ anti-immigrant ” and “ white supremacists.
” Hirono ( D-HI ) began the segment by claiming the President has been a failure in three aspects : • The pandemic – Caused by China with a response slowed down by the impeachment charade .
• The economy – Caused by the pandemic which had previously been roaring along at historic rates .
• Systemic racism – Something that only exists in bad individuals and is by no means systemic .

“ And we should be dealing with the racism that is in our country to which the president speaks to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who are very anti-immigrant and white supremacists.
” “ That ’ s who , that ’ s the , a lot of his base and that ’ s who he speaks to so the divisiveness continues , ” she stammered .

But there , the mayor seems to be made of sterner stuff than Mayor Jenny Durkan of Seattle .
The Pacific Northwest Youth Liberation Front , a kiddie insurrectionist group made up of anti-free market rioters , is apparently behind recent upheavals in Portland , a recent report said .
Meanwhile , early Tuesday morning , Portland Police updated the public on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Many are not dispersing per the lawful order , ” the police tweeted .
“ They are subject to arrest , force , tear gas or impact weapons .

” Mayor Ted Wheeler also commented , “ We are now more than a month and a half into witnessing nightly violence on our streets .
Portland continues to be used as a staging ground for violence night after night.
” “ This is causing unprecedented harm to our communities , livelihoods , and Portlanders continue to fear for their safety @ @ @ @ @ @ @ main concern is this : That the continuing violence will lead to further injuries or even deaths.
” The Pacific Northwest Youth Liberation Front has a Twitter account with over 21,000 followers and claims to be a “ decentralized network of autonomous youth collectives dedicated to direct action towards liberation.
” The brilliant television series “ Portlandia ” comes to mind .
Trying to ignore the fact that their self-description sounds like the scene in “ Monty Python and the Holy Grail ” in which the peasant declares , “ Listen , strange @ @ @ @ @ @ @ swords is no basis for a system of government !
Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses , not from some farcical aquatic ceremony , ” the Pacific Northwest Youth Liberation Front does not exactly have a way with words .
Early Monday , they tweeted , “ The Feds and Portland Police are very quickly finding out that if they build a fortress and use literal siege tactics , the People will put their f—ing fortress under siege.
” So now a band of scruffy left-wing youth speaks for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them .
The group added , “ Portland is an autonomous zone , b–ch.

But apparently all is not perfect in socialist paradise , as some tell of a rift between the youth group and Black Lives Matter .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-14--Daughter Of Murdered Texas Cop Is Attacked Online For Posting #BlueLivesMatter To Honor Him

On Saturday , two Texas police officers were tragically gunned down while responding to a domestic violence call .
Afterwards , something truly sickening happened when one of the fallen officer ’ s daughters was attacked online simply for using the hashtag # BlueLivesMatter to honor her father .
Officers Edelmiro Garza , Jr. , 45 , and Ismael Chavez , 39 , of the McAllen Police Department were killed after being ambushed on Saturday .
Chavez was a former chemistry teacher and football coach who had a young daughter named Savannah .
After her father was killed , Savannah @ @ @ @ @ @ @ him .
The tweet from Savannah that received the most attention was one in which she wrote , “ words can not describe the pain I ’ m in , but I ’ m glad my dad is at peace .
you were an amazing man and anyone who ever came across you knew that .
I ’ m going to miss you so much .
you died doing what you loved most , you died a hero .
i love you daddy , see you soon .
# BlueLivesMatter.

On Saturday, two Texas police officers were tragically gunned down while responding to a domestic violence call. Afterwards, something truly sickening happened when one of the fallen officer’s daughters was attacked online simply for using the hashtag #BlueLivesMatter to honor her father.
Officers Edelmiro Garza, Jr., 45, and Ismael Chavez, 39, of the McAllen Police Department were killed after being ambushed on Saturday. Chavez was a former chemistry teacher and football coach who had a young daughter named Savannah.
After her father was killed, Savannah took to Twitter to pay tribute to him.
I’m so proud of you and all your accomplishments and I’m proud to call you my father. i can’t thank you enough for all you’ve done. I thank God for putting you in my life. you will forever be in my heart. thank you for making me the happiest “princess” ever. #McallenPD pic.twitter.com/aFXsb4b4rD — Savannah (@sweeetsav) July 12, 2020
i miss you dad https://t.co/s5Yl89GTmB — Savannah (@sweeetsav) July 12, 2020
The tweet from Savannah that received the most attention was one in which she wrote, “words cannot describe the pain I’m in, but I’m glad my dad is at peace. you were an amazing man and anyone who ever came across you knew that. I’m going to miss you so much. you died doing what you loved most, you died a hero. i love you daddy, see you soon. #BlueLivesMatter.”
This tweet should not be controversial at all, but that is unfortunately not the world that we live in right now. Savannah learned this the hard way when she was quickly inundated with hate over her use of the hashtag #BlueLivesMatter by Twitter users who showed no mercy despite the fact that this young woman had just lost her father.
“I am so sorry for your loss but you didn’t have to use a racist hashtag,” one Twitter user commented, according to Heavy.com. Another social media user added, “Blue lives matter was literally created in response to and to undermine black lives matter. There’s no other connotation unfortunately.”
Savannah quickly deleted the tweet, but that did not stop the negative comments from escalating.
“Well atleast your pops is a good cop now, 6 feet in the dirt where he cant hurt nobody,” a third Twitter user wrote, with a fourth saying, “Rip to your daddy!!! But one cop down many more to go,”
Tons of Twitter users fired back at Savannah with the hashtag “ACAB,” which means “All Cops Are Bastards.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-14--Meet The Young GOP House Candidate Who Is Running To Fight Socialism

Many of us talk about socialism in the abstract , being lucky enough to have been born and raised here .
Though we can see the approaching specter of socialism in the Democratic Party and its leaders like AOC and Bernie Sanders , few of us have ever dealt with the cold dead hand of the socialist state ourselves .
Victoria Spartz is an exception to that rule because she was born and grew up in the Soviet-controlled Ukraine .
As such , this telegenic and articulate GOP candidate for the U.S. House in the Indiana 5th congressional district is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ need to keep the American dream alive and free from the kind of system she had to endure .
Spartz moved to America in 2000 , became a citizen the legal way , then worked her way up from a bank teller to a finance expert and CPA who worked with Fortune 500 companies at multiple Big 4 public accounting firms .
This is achieving the American dream in the proper and traditional way .
She eventually decided to venture out on her own and started several businesses , maintaining proprietorship in entities @ @ @ @ @ @ @ estate .
In 2017 , when her local state senator announced he would retire , Victoria decided it was time to serve her community in elected office .
Victoria was elected by caucus in a seven-way race to fill the remainder of the term .
She built a reputation for standing up to the establishment in the state senate before deciding to run for the open seat in Indiana ’ s 5th congressional district in 2020 .
Spartz dominated a 15-way primary with 40 % of the vote in June to secure the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are targeting this suburban seat that President Donald Trump carried by 12 in 2016 ( thus fat chance , Nancy ) and Spartz is the favorite to win the seat in November .
Where does she stand on the issues ?
Let ’ s listen to her .
On transparent and affordable healthcare : “ Our current health care system is already about 80 % socialized and is failing too many Americans .
Fixing this broken system will be my number one priority in Congress .
In the State Senate , I passed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ parties to bring down health care and prescription drug costs , create transparency , enhance competition , and shift power back to consumers from large health care monopolies .
“ If Republicans fail to present a plan that improves access and value while bringing down costs for health care services , Democrats will eventually force through a government takeover of the entire health care system.
” Pro-free enterprise and fiscal accountability : “ I will use my experience as a successful businesswoman and CPA to improve government accountability , control spending , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , empower free enterprise , and provide better opportunities for entrepreneurs and small businesses .
“ As I did in the State Senate , I will oppose tax increases , cut regulations , and promote limited government to benefit entrepreneurship , economic development and job creation .
This stands in stark contrast to the Democrats ’ far-left agenda of higher taxes , burdensome regulations , and anemic growth.
” Safe and secure borders : “ As Milton Friedman said , you can not have open borders and a welfare state , but that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pushing right now .
There has been a crisis at the border for years , but career politicians have failed to take meaningful action to fix the situation and reform our immigration system to better serve our national interest .
As someone who spent six years becoming an American citizen the legal way , I am quite familiar with how broken our immigration system is and will use that experience to improve it.
” In essence Victoria Spartz is a suburban mother who grew-up under socialism and understands the damage it would do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hale has been described as an “ urban progressive ” and a “ big city progressive Democrat.
” During this campaign Hale has already embraced far-left policies like the Green New Deal and a government takeover of our health care system .
Nancy Pelosi handpicked Christina Hale and is bankrolling Hale ’ s campaign .
If elected , Hale ’ s first vote will likely be to give Nancy Pelosi another term as Speaker of the House .
Victoria Spartz is our kind of candidate .

The U.S. added 4.8 million jobs in June – the largest single-month gain in history! This is tremendous news, but we still have a long way to go. In Congress, I’ll fight for pro-growth policies to continue the great American comeback! https://t.co/Qcy9iJmwZN — Victoria Spartz (@Victoria_Spartz) July 4, 2020

Nice visiting a multi-generational farm owned by the Likens family and innovative manufacturing businesses at Purdue Polytechnic.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-16--Never Give The Mob An Inch: Nothing You Do Will Ever Be Enough, So Stop Trying To Appease Them

Frankly , most Americans – of all political stripes – don ’ t really care if we move statues of Confederates to battlefields and cemeteries .
If the war on statues was really just about removing monuments to men only known for rebelling against the United States of America – then I think we could have built a pretty large national consensus in short order and the statues could be lawfully moved .
The Left Isn ’ t Looking For National Consensus The truth is , however , that the left isn ’ t looking for a national consensus , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we shouldn ’ t agree to give the mob even an inch .
Nothing we do will ever be enough , so it is time we stop appeasing them .
Demands to remove Confederate statues soon became demands to remove statues of Christopher Columbus .
Those demands morphed into demands to take down statues of Thomas Jefferson , George Washington and Mount Rushmore .
Incredibly , even statues of Abraham Lincoln are now under attack .
The demands to topple statues of Jefferson and Washington come just three short years after the main @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the statue warriors would eventually go after our Founding Fathers .
The main stream media assured us that “ statues of Washington and Jefferson aren ’ t next.
” In 2016 , Senator Bernie Sanders praised Mount Rushmore , saying it made him , “ proud to be an American.
” Just four years later , Mount Rushmore is called a monument to racists , built on ‘ stolen land ’ and sculpted by a racist .
The great abolitionist Frederick Douglass spoke at the dedication of the Emancipation Statue of Lincoln @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was paid for by freed slaves .
Yet somehow , according to 2020 ’ s woke terrorists , the statue is now problematic and must be removed .

Absolutely nothing changed .
The attacks on the statues aren ’ t made in good faith .
They are all about leftists flexing their social , cultural , and political muscle .
None of this is about white supremacy .
Of course , the insanity hasn ’ t stopped with statues .

Nevertheless , after pressure from activists and corporate sponsors @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in name limbo .
The Cleveland Indians baseball team , the Chicago Blackhawks hockey team and even the mascot of the University of North Carolina are now under siege .
RELATED : Washington Redskins Opens Review Into Name , Sources Say Change ‘ Likely ’ The insanity has to stop and it is incumbent on conservatives and our elected officials to stop it .
The way to do it is simple , do not give them even an inch .
So going forward , we shouldn ’ t listen to any arguments about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anything at all .
The left isn ’ t interested in engaging in a thoughtful debate about how to remember and celebrate our nation ’ s history .

The Left Isn’t Looking For National Consensus
