Texas governor Greg Abbott is pushing forward with a plan to freeze tax revenues for cities that decide to defund their police departments .
In an appearance with Fox News host Sean Hannity , Abbott denounced violence taking place in Democrat-controlled cities across the nation and pointed to Austin , Texas in particular .
“ Austin , Texas , has defunded law enforcement [ and ] police … despite the fact that over the first six months of this year , the city ranked number one in the United States for the highest percentage increase in murders was Austin , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ became the first major Texas city to curtail its police department ’ s budget last week , with the city council unanimously approving a $ 150 million budget cut .
This comes amidst a report in early August indicating a sharp 64 percent increase in murders in Austin during the pandemic , the highest increase in the nation .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-20--Biden Betrayed American Workers – Sold His Soul To China

In 47 years as a career Washington politician , Joe Biden has repeatedly sold out American workers and shamelessly catered to China , rewarding its brutal communist regime with sweetheart trade deals that killed millions of jobs and hollowed out the manufacturing base of the U.S. economy .

The results have been catastrophic .
China has brazenly stolen the intellectual property of U.S. companies , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , hacked into computer databases to steal the financial history of U.S. consumers , and cruelly denied the human rights of its own people , most recently by crushing democracy in Hong Kong .

In 47 years as a career Washington politician, Joe Biden has repeatedly sold out American workers and shamelessly catered to China, rewarding its brutal communist regime with sweetheart trade deals that killed millions of jobs and hollowed out the manufacturing base of the U.S. economy.
Biden And China
Biden led the effort to give preferential trade status to China and give it membership in the World Trade Organization, making it all but impossible to crack down on its unfair trade practices. The results have been catastrophic.
China has brazenly stolen the intellectual property of U.S. companies, manipulated its currency to undermine the dollar, hacked into computer databases to steal the financial history of U.S. consumers, and cruelly denied the human rights of its own people, most recently by crushing democracy in Hong Kong.
Under Obama and Biden, China waged war on the U.S. economy with lethal precision while our own government facilitated its looting of America. Products made in China were dumped into the America at artificially low prices to gut U.S. companies and destroy the jobs of American workers. A total of 3.2 million Americans lost their jobs because of higher trade deficits with China.
Biden Remained ‘Clueless Or Callous’
Biden, meanwhile, remained either clueless or callous about the ruinous results for American workers. Last year, in a display of naiveté remarkable even for him, Biden claimed China posed no threat to the United States.
As vice president, he championed the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement —a deal so bad that even Hillary Clinton forcefully disavowed it— which would have killed 448,000 U.S. jobs and lopped hundreds of billions of dollars off the U.S. GDP.
Biden has made a career out of selling out U.S. workers. He voted for NAFTA, the disastrous trade deal that caused tens of thousands of factories to shutter and killed 850,000 manufacturing jobs. Fortunately, President Trump negotiated the USMC, the replacement deal with Mexico and Canada that protects U.S. workers and their wages.
If elected president, Biden has also pledged to wipe out three million jobs in the energy sector by passing the Green New Deal, restricting fracking and outlawing fossil fuels, sticking it to U.S. workers, increasing the wealth of oil-rich dictatorships in Iran and Venezuela.
Trump Tough On China
President Donald Trump’s tough stance on Communist China signaled the most dramatic shift in Sino-American relations since Nixon’s diplomatic opening to Beijing in 1972. Under Trump, China is finally being challenged for its rogue behavior and unfair trade practices, from stealing U.S. intellectual property to dumping.
That is one of many reasons why under Trump wages are rising and millions of jobs are being created, including hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs prior to the onset of the pandemic.
Joe Biden is weak on China and bad for American workers. His opposition to the travel ban from China imposed by President Trump in January at the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak, which saved hundreds of thousands of lives and which Biden claimed was hysterical and xenophobic, was just the most egregious and recent example of Biden’s pro-China bias.
That alone disqualifies him from the presidency.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-22--Biden Admits He Would Shut The Country Down Again And Defer To Scientists On Coronavirus

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden admitted on Friday that if there is a second spike of COVID-19 , he would shut down the country again if scientists suggested that was the best option .
Biden Says He ’ ll Defer To Scientists On COVID-19 Biden told ABC host David Muir that he would absolutely defer to scientists if they call for a second shutdown .
“ If you ’ re sworn in come January and we have coronavirus and the flu combining — which many scientists have said is a real possibility — would you be prepared to shut this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ I would be prepared to do whatever it takes to save lives because we can not get the country moving until we control the virus .
That is the fundamental flaw of this administration ’ s thinking to begin with , ” Biden replied .
“ In order to keep the country running and moving and the economy growing and people employed , you have to fix the virus .
You have to deal with the virus.
” “ So , if the scientists say , ‘ shut it down ?
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ I would shut it down .
I would listen to the scientists , ” Biden confessed .
Shutting America Down Again Would Destroy More Lives Millions of Americans have lost their jobs in the wake of the shutdown due to the first wave of the coronavirus pandemic .
Just last month , CDC director Robert Redfield warned that younger people are dying from suicide and drug overdoses in far greater numbers than from COVID-19 .
“ We ’ re seeing , sadly , far greater suicides now than we are deaths from COVID @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deaths from drug overdose that are above excess that we had as background than we are seeing the deaths from COVID , ” Redfield said .
The CDC conducted a survey of 5,412 people between June 24 and 30 and the collected data on suicides is alarming .
Roughly 25 % percent of young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 say they ’ ve considered suicide because of the pandemic .
About 30.9 % of the respondents said that they “ had symptoms of anxiety or depression ” and about 26.3 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the outbreak .
Over 13 % said that they have used alcohol , prescription and/or illegal drugs to deal with their pandemic-induced stress and anxiety .
The amount of Americans reporting anxiety symptoms is triple the number of this time last year .
The CDC reported that 11 % of adults surveyed had seriously considered suicide in the past 30 days .
This just serves as more evidence of why we can ’ t let Biden get anywhere near the White House .

Utah Students May Be Charged
The office of Republican Governor Gary Herbert reportedly confirmed the potential for K-12 students and staff getting misdemeanors for violating the mask mandate, according to The Salt Lake Tribune. However, spokeswoman Anna Lehnardt added that it will be up to the schools whether to press charges, which are anticipated to be rarities.
“It’s enforced on a district and superintendent level,” she added. “But we’re not thinking, ‘Let’s slap a bunch of kids with misdemeanors.'”

Parents Fight Back
As schools have reopened this week, however, the enforcement of the mandate has become frustrating for parents. In a legislative meeting that took place on Wednesday, one mother spoke out to question why there should be potential misdemeanor charges associated with something that she sees as a personal choice.
“Our children should not have to suffer criminal consequences for getting an education,” said Angie Martin, whose child attends high school in Cache County.
Other parents have been fighting back as well. Danielle Cottam is a Utah mother who has removed her five children from school so they don’t have to abide by the order. The Tribune stated that on Wednesday, which was a school day, Cottam’s children played with a crowd of other mask-free kids at a splash pad in St. George.
“I should have the kids in school,” Cottam told the publication. “But I chose to keep them home because of the mask crap. … It’s totally unconstitutional. It’s not even giving us a choice. I think I should have a right to choose whether or not my kids have to wear it.”

Comedian Chelsea Handler just launched a truly vile attack on Republicans , saying that the party ’ s platform is “ walls , guns , and racism.
” On Friday morning , Handler took to Twitter to tweet out the following : Handler is the last person who should be accusing anyone of “ racism , ” as she recently tweeted out a video of the known racist , anti-Semite , and homophobe Louis Farrakhan .
Handler described the video as “ powerful , ” adding that she “ learned a lot from it.
” The video featured Farrakhan talking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ Black people who were brought to this country were stripped of their names , language , culture , religion , God , and taken totally away from the history of themselves .
Here are 30 million people who don ’ t wear their own names—they wear your names , ” he said in the video , according to .
After Handler was attacked , she initially stood by Farrakhan and the video .
” Another thing : perhaps Farrakhan ’ s anti-Semitic views took form during his own oppression .
We know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to an oppression of all races , ” tweeted Handler , who is Jewish herself .
Despite this debacle , Handler continues to accuse President Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans of being “ racists.
” “ The more racist the right becomes , the more radical we become , ” Handler tweeted back in May .
“ The more intolerant the right becomes , the more intolerant we become of you .
The more you claim religion , the more you make a fool of religion .

Comedian Chelsea Handler just launched a truly vile attack on Republicans, saying that the party’s platform is “walls, guns, and racism.”
Handler Attacks Republicans
On Friday morning, Handler took to Twitter to tweet out the following:
“Democrats platform: Family. Military families, equality for women, equality for all people of color, brown and black alike. Unity. Compassion. Healthcare. Climate change. Love. Hope. Republicans: Walls. Guns. Racism.”
Democrats platform: Family. Military families, equality for women, equality for all people of color, brown and black alike. Unity. Compassion. Healthcare. Climate change. Love. Hope. Republicans: Walls. Guns. Racism. — Chelsea Handler (@chelseahandler) August 21, 2020
Handler’s Racist Past
Handler is the last person who should be accusing anyone of “racism,” as she recently tweeted out a video of the known racist, anti-Semite, and homophobe Louis Farrakhan. Handler described the video as “powerful,” adding that she “learned a lot from it.” The video featured Farrakhan talking about race relations and white supremacy.
“Black people who were brought to this country were stripped of their names, language, culture, religion, God, and taken totally away from the history of themselves. Here are 30 million people who don’t wear their own names—they wear your names,” he said in the video, according to The Daily Beast.
In the past 24 hours, Jameela Jamil, Chelsea Handler & Jessica Chastain have shared on Instagram a video of vicious anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan discussing racism. They say: "Extraordinary." "Powerful." They have over 10M followers. @jameelajamil @chelseahandler @jes_chastain pic.twitter.com/xfdr4aKRch — John-Paul Pagano (@johnpaulpagano) June 16, 2020
After Handler was attacked, she initially stood by Farrakhan and the video.
”Another thing: perhaps Farrakhan’s anti-Semitic views took form during his own oppression. We know now that oppression of one race leads to an oppression of all races,” tweeted Handler, who is Jewish herself.
Handler Has Attacked Republicans Before
Despite this debacle, Handler continues to accuse President Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans of being “racists.”
“The more racist the right becomes, the more radical we become,” Handler tweeted back in May. “The more intolerant the right becomes, the more intolerant we become of you. The more you claim religion, the more you make a fool of religion. If you think hate wins, and murder is reasonable, vote Republican.”

“Give people light. Those are words for our time. The current president has cloaked America in darkness for much too long. Too much anger. Too much fear. Too much division,” Biden said, according to Fox News.
McGowan, however, was not having any of it.
“You are the season of darkness. @JoeBiden @dnc You are monsters. You are frauds. You are the lie,” McGowan tweeted.
You are the season of darkness. @JoeBiden @dnc You are monsters. You are frauds. You are the lie. — Rose McGowan (@rosemcgowan) August 21, 2020
McGowan Attacks Democrats
Not stopping there, McGowan went on to attack the Democratic Party as a whole.
“What have the Democrats done to solve ANYTHING? Help the poor? No. Help black & brown people? No. Stop police brutality? No. Help single mothers? No. Help children? No. You have achieved nothing. NOTHING. Why did people vote Trump? Because of you motherf—kers,” she wrote.
When Twitter users tried to attack McGowan for expressing these views, she fired right back at them.
“And if you can’t see that I’m dragging everyone to force them to be better & hold them accountable then you are delusional,” she said. The former “Charmed” star later responded “lol” to a follower who called one of her tweets “ugly” in the midst of a “beautiful convention.”
In another tweet, McGowan said that she does not like President Trump.
“Did I say I like him? No. I am an equal opportunity hater,” she wrote. “American voters/cult members have been hoodwinked for years into believing they have to live with a lesser of two evils. Wake up. Demand more.”
McGowan Has Previously Attacked Democrats
This isn’t the first time McGowan called out the Democratic Party. Back in April, she launched a massive attack on the Democratic establishment.
“I used to be a proud Democrat,” she said. “I used to be a proud American.”
McGowan went on to lament that she had been raised to think that the Democratic Party “were the good guys” and that she felt “really quite a sense of loss.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-23--NYT Reporter Trashes Melania Trump Over White House Garden Beautification

The Left is so frustrated at their ability to convincingly bash President Donald Trump that now they are blatantly and viciously going after First Lady Melania Trump .
While this isn ’ t the first time the ignorant Left has targeted Melania Trump , this attack not only features a kitschy Manhattan critique of gardening , but a bigoted anti-immigrant screed from a devotee of the same political party that worships immigrants .
But apparently , only certain types of immigrants : The illegal kind .
Precious poodle Kurt Eichenwald had this to say on Saturday about a White House @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lady : “ It is a destruction of our history , something no other First Lady would have had the gall to do .
This is the first time I have been furious that @ FLOTUS is a foreigner .
She has no right to wreck our history… Someone who has only been a citizen for less than 1/3 of her life should be reverent to America ’ s history , should honor our history , not decide her personal taste should rip it up.
” And what was the great crime the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump is allegedly guilty of ?
What is the “ destruction ” and wrecking ?
The First Lady : “ Excited to honor history & celebrate the future in our beautiful @ WhiteHouse Rose Garden this evening .
Thank you to all who helped renew this iconic & truly gorgeous space.
” She added , “ The very act of planting a garden involves hard work and hope in the possibility of a bright future .
Preserving the history and beauty of the White House and its grounds is a testament to our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of this landscape and our dedication to American ideals , safeguarding them for our children and their children for generations to come.
” Oh my God !
What destructive evil she has wrought .
Quick , get ICE to deport her to Supermodel Island !
Now it would be caddish , but oh so easy , to compare our current and stunningly beautiful First Lady to others who held that position .
But one can say in a positive light , not since Jacqueline Kennedy ( to include any immediately previous occupant of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to a mammal oftentimes found in Alaska ) has a First Lady shown the sense of elegance and classic style as does Melania Trump .
Eichenwald Took This Way Too Far Even the usual suspects of Trump bashers thought Eichenwald had gone too far .
But the unintentionally campy Eichenwald will not heed their sensible counsel .
Like so many others of his political and cultural ilk , he is so consumed with a mania for , and jealousy of , the president that he seeks to strike him personally , hoping for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of his desperate obsession .
However , the president and the First Lady have better things to do than notice an insect like Eichenwald .
The president has a country to run and an election to win .
The First Lady will no doubt continue to brighten any environ she is in with her winsome magnificence and her effortless grace .
America is lucky to have them both .

New York Times Reporter Attacks Melania
Precious New York Times poodle Kurt Eichenwald had this to say on Saturday about a White House Rose Garden renovation directed by the First Lady:
“It is a destruction of our history, something no other First Lady would have had the gall to do. This is the first time I have been furious that @FLOTUS is a foreigner. She has no right to wreck our history… Someone who has only been a citizen for less than 1/3 of her life should be reverent to America’s history, should honor our history, not decide her personal taste should rip it up.”

Melania Improved White House Rose Garden
And what was the great crime the poised, lovely, and tasteful Melania Trump is allegedly guilty of? What is the “destruction” and wrecking?

Now it would be caddish, but oh so easy, to compare our current and stunningly beautiful First Lady to others who held that position. But one can say in a positive light, not since Jacqueline Kennedy (to include any immediately previous occupant of the position who holds a striking resemblance to a mammal oftentimes found in Alaska) has a First Lady shown the sense of elegance and classic style as does Melania Trump.
Eichenwald Took This Way Too Far
Even the usual suspects of Trump bashers thought Eichenwald had gone too far.
Agree. @kurteichenwald this is xenophobic and wrong. It’s bigotry. — Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) August 23, 2020
But the unintentionally campy Eichenwald will not heed their sensible counsel. Like so many others of his political and cultural ilk, he is so consumed with a mania for, and jealousy of, the president that he seeks to strike him personally, hoping for a glance of notice from the object of his desperate obsession.
However, the president and the First Lady have better things to do than notice an insect like Eichenwald. The president has a country to run and an election to win.
