Over the last two days it must have given the boys and girls in blue a smirk or two to watch the look on the faces of former Chopistas when they realized the police still had the not-so-defunded resources to boot their vegan patchouli-scented carcasses off public property .
So came to an end the illegal insurrection that Seattle Democrats @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
After the chinless riff raff who occupied the Bolshevik utopia started to shoot each other , as Bolsheviks will , the mayor then began to contemplate ending the farce .
Police issued the order to disperse around 5 a.m. local time Wednesday , telling the trust fund subversives to leave within eight minutes .
When they demurred they were arrested for failure to disperse , obstruction , resisting arrest and assault .
But what really hastened the end of CHOP , and the clearing out action by the revivified police , was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the home of Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan .
When that transpired over the weekend Her Ladyship went from calling CHOP “ a summer of love ” and “ a block party ” to sounding like the indignant wife of Thurston Howell III in her attitude towards the scruffy dilettantes .
She then , as now her particular ox had been gored and the shootings made bad press , ordered CHOP done away with post haste .
In even more amusing news under the Revolution eats its own category : The mayor has fallen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ excuse the redundancy , over actions , to include the mayoral home incident , during the brief and shining “ summer of love.

In an email to City Council President Lorena Gonzalez , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ socialist , is using her position as a city official “ in violation of law ” and for “ recklessly ” undermining other people ’ s safety in a quest “ for political theatre.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-05--Colin Kaepernick Calls 4th Of July A ‘Celebration Of White Supremacy’

While you and your friends and family may have been having fun celebrating our nation ’ s independence on Saturday , failed NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick was not in a good mood .
No , the marker of 1776 brought out an opportunistic petulance in Kaepernick that he wanted to share with the rest of us .
In a Twitter message he denounced the nation ’ s 244th birthday as a “ celebration of white supremacy.
” He must be talking about the supremacy of dirt poor whites in Appalachia or the heroin addiction rates in Harlan County , Kentucky @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the 300,000 Union dead who fought to end slavery .
Or surely he meant the supremacy of the white parents who brought him up ( pictured above ) and apparently did such a bad job doing so .
Along with a video showing images of the Ku Klux Klan , police brutality , slavery and lynching , Kaepernick wrote : “ Black ppl have been dehumanized , brutalized , criminalized + terrorized by America for centuries , & are expected to join your commemoration of ‘ independence ’ , while you enslaved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of white supremacy & look forward to liberation for all.
” But you ’ d he mistaken if you think Kaepernick meant a word of it .
Kaepernick is a classic race hustler .
He doesn ’ t give one damn about blacks , civil rights , or the evils of slavery .
He is using this cudgel to get publicity from the media and extort money from gullible guilty whites .
If this wasn ’ t the case then we would be able to recall Kaepernick ’ s record of racial agitation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the NFL .
But guess what ?
There are none .
His mediocre sports talent got him so far and then his professional impotence got the best of him .
So what did he do ?
He skinned the cat a different way and has made more money and received more attention as a race hustler than he ever did as a failed quarterback .
If Kaepernick and people who think like him made their legitimate points about slavery in historical context , they would deserve a fair hearing .
Yes , slavery @ @ @ @ @ @ @ abomination before God and deserves to be remembered as such by every decent American .
But what also needs to be remembered is that without the slavery compromise in 1776 , as horrible as it sounds to our ears , with the Southern delegates to the Continental Congress , this nation would never have come into being .
The Southerners would have withheld their support for independence .
In fact , Thomas Jefferson said our dark bargain with slavery was “ like holding a wolf by the ears.
” All the good America @ @ @ @ @ @ @ redeeming itself from the monstrous sacrilege of slavery , would never have been accomplished .
No economic and technological achievements by Americans , no victory over fascism , no victory over communism .
Thus German or Russian , perhaps Japanese , would be the American lingua franca and Kaepernick , as slaves would have already been here if America was stillborn , would have to rely on the tender mercies of those powers when making his arguments .
Somehow I doubt , if the United States of America had never been born on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ talking to another kind of American regime , his views would have been met solely by lucrative endorsement contracts .

During a rousing speech, one of the best of his presidency, in front of Mount Rushmore on Friday the president proposed an American pantheon, a “National Garden of American Heroes.”
The stage could not have been set any better. The president and his wife looked top notch, GOP Governor Kristi Noem was articulate and gorgeous —making her smart money for the 2024 Republican ticket— the Blue Angels fly by was inspirational, and the flags waving in the wind to the back of the president as he was speaking finished off the near perfect picture.
During his speech at the foot of Mount Rushmore on the eve of Independence Day, Donald Trump announced he was signing an executive order to establish the National Garden of American Heroes, which will feature the “greatest Americans to ever live.” https://t.co/a899xWAh4l — Stars and Stripes (@starsandstripes) July 4, 2020
While he gave a full-throated defense of democracy, free speech, and American heritage, the big reveal was the upcoming garden. While an excellent idea, the culture war fights over inclusion in that space promise to be tremendous.
The full list of proposed initial heroes for the Garden includes:
John Adams, Susan B. Anthony, Clara Barton, Daniel Boone, Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, Henry Clay, Davy Crockett, Frederick Douglass, Amelia Earhart, Benjamin Franklin, Billy Graham, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, Martin Luther King, Jr., Abraham Lincoln, Douglas MacArthur, Dolley Madison, James Madison, Christa McAuliffe, Audie Murphy, George S. Patton, Jr., Ronald Reagan, Jackie Robinson, Betsy Ross, Antonin Scalia, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Harriet Tubman, Booker T. Washington, George Washington, and Orville and Wilbur Wright.
No doubt provisions will be made for further choices and also, reflecting the times, for serious security precautions.
While an impressive list, though maybe a tad redundant in message, to give a more rounded picture of the American experience, these names should also be included: Alan Shepard, Louis Armstrong, George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Jonas Salk, Cole Porter, Neil Simon, Burt Bacharach, Martha Graham, Babe Ruth, Johnny Unitas, Mario Andretti, Vince Lombardi, Andrew Carnegie, Louis Sullivan, Alvin York, Chuck Yeager, and Neil Armstrong. Many more names also deserve inclusion.
But on the culture war front, you can already see where the PC Left will object. They will decry MacArthur, Patton, and Murphy as agents of American imperialism. They will condemn Reagan, Scalia, and George Washington as dead white men and, by definition, racists. They will pillory Booker T. Washington, Jackie Robinson, and Dr. King as Toms and on and on until the Garden is reduced to Beyonce, Angela Davis, and Gus Hall.
By starting this brouhaha the president has realized, as have countless others who can read modern history, that the most cutthroat political fights these days are not on economics or national security, but on cultural matters. The president has laid down his marker on the traditional side of American history and told the Left to come and get him. It is a beautiful trap.
Some pros amongst the Democrats and the Left will see the incipient ambush and walk around the issue. But many, those who froth with Bolshevik spite and bitterness, will plunge headlong into the minefield and…kaboom.
Well timed for November, their exploding political torsos will be tossed high over the American electoral landscape and will remind voters just why the Democrats stepped into the deadly ground in the first place. As such: Set, game, match goes to Trump.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-04--CNN Praised Mount Rushmore When Obama Went There, Slammed It During Trump Visit

When President Donald Trump visited Mount Rushmore on Friday , CNN described it as a “ monument of two slave owners ” on “ land wrestled [ sic ] away from Native Americans.
” Back in 2008 , when Barack Obama visited the monument , CNN was singing a very different tune about Mount Rushmore and the Democrat president .
“ Barack Obama is campaigning in South Dakota , ” CNN anchor Ron Marciano said in 2008 .
“ That state ’ s primary is Tuesday .
Obama arrived there late last night and got a good look around Mt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a sight if you haven ’ t seen it.
” “ Barack Obama is in South Dakota today , ” added his fellow anchor Betty Nguyen .
“ He arrived there last night .
Take a look at this .
He got a good glimpse of the majestic Mount Rushmore .
Well , South Dakota and Montana have closed out the primary season on Tuesday.
” On Friday , however , CNN ‘ s tone about Mount Rushmore could not have been more different .
CNN ‘ s Washington correspondent Joe Johns had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ] t a time of racial unease , when protesters are tearing down statues of slaveholders and calling for the names of Confederate generals to be removed from army bases , the Rushmore event is a reminder that Trump is fighting to preserve these relics of heritage and history that some see as symbols of oppression .
And to indigenous people , Mt .
Rushmore , with four white presidents , two of whom were slave owners , is one of those symbols.
” CNN also spoke to Sioux Falls Argus Leader columnist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I think that is a source of concern for people that see this certainly within a state with a Native American population nearly 10 percent and much higher in Rapid City , concerned about a place that has a lot of spiritual significance .
And historical significance when you look at what they and most historians consider to be broken promises and broken treaties.
” “ President Trump will be at Mt .
Rushmore where he ’ ll be standing in front of a monument of two slave owners and on land wrestled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ uh , be focusing on the effort to ‘ tear down our country ’ s history , ' ” said CNN correspondent Leyla Santiago .

Fascinating how CNN called Mount Rushmore "majestic" and "quite a sight" in 2008 when Obama visited, but now its a symbol of slavery and stolen landhttps://t.co/3sV1ZEfW9L https://t.co/GTIH9tzOim pic.twitter.com/5Vu6uQp4XS — Zach Parkinson (@AZachParkinson) July 3, 2020
On Friday, however, CNN‘s tone about Mount Rushmore could not have been more different. CNN‘s Washington correspondent Joe Johns had this to say:
“[A]t a time of racial unease, when protesters are tearing down statues of slaveholders and calling for the names of Confederate generals to be removed from army bases, the Rushmore event is a reminder that Trump is fighting to preserve these relics of heritage and history that some see as symbols of oppression. And to indigenous people, Mt. Rushmore, with four white presidents, two of whom were slave owners, is one of those symbols.”
CNN also spoke to Sioux Falls Argus Leader columnist Stu Whitney, who said:
“I think that is a source of concern for people that see this certainly within a state with a Native American population nearly 10 percent and much higher in Rapid City, concerned about a place that has a lot of spiritual significance. And historical significance when you look at what they and most historians consider to be broken promises and broken treaties.”
“President Trump will be at Mt. Rushmore where he’ll be standing in front of a monument of two slave owners and on land wrestled away from Native Americans told that, uh, be focusing on the effort to ‘tear down our country’s history,'” said CNN correspondent Leyla Santiago. It’s funny how things change!
Pursuant to the new moral stricture promulgated this week by the NYT & CNN — that Mount Rushmore is a shameful monument to racism and white supremacy — both CNN and Bernie Sanders ought to repent for this praise they jointly heaped on it in 2016:pic.twitter.com/0MRNO2PJ2j — Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) July 4, 2020

Three more troopers then entered the coffee shop without masks and refused to put any on. They sat at a table with the first trooper, and stayed there for about ten minutes. Boss explained that he felt like he needed to carry out their orders because they were in uniform, even though he’d sent away patrons for not wearing masks earlier in the week.
Allan’s Coffee & Tea ended up reporting the incident to the police, and the Oregon State Police then launched an internal investigation. “The involved trooper has been placed on administrative leave,” OSP spokesman Capt. Timothy Fox said in a statement. “OSP is early in the investigation, but if found to be true, we are thoroughly disappointed and expect our troopers to follow the governor’s executive orders and be examples in the community.”
He added that all four uniformed officers in the video are state troopers assigned to Oregon State University, but he refused to name the trooper on leave.
“Let me be clear, Oregon State Police Troopers are not above the law and this conduct is being immediately addressed,” Oregon State Police Superintendent Travis Hampton noted. “As the leader of the Oregon State Police, I would like to offer my apology to the coffee shop employees and the community.”
Governor Brown also spoke out to address the incident.
“It is inexcusable that a few Oregon State Troopers disregarded my face covering requirement yesterday, and ignored a request from a fellow Oregonian to follow the rule,” Brown said Thursday. “Oregon State Police Superintendent Hampton and I agree that their actions and behaviors were absolutely unacceptable.”

If you analyze the actual term they use it is nonsensical. Of course the climate changes, it does it four times a year and they are called seasons, on a very long term basis there are ice ages and interglacial warm periods – no one denies the fact climate changes.
What the opponents of man-made global warming argue against is whether Human CO2 emissions or CO2, in general, have anything to do with it. Progressives choose to not argue on a technical basis but instead resort to propaganda and distortion of the language to make their points.

They do this with all political issues to push their agenda.
HEED MY WORDS CAREFULLY!
We had better steel ourselves against the inevitable backlash that will ensue against us for telling the truth and prosecuting it. Any attempt to undo this narrative will unleash the demons of hell. Are we up to it? I’m talking about a very HOT civil war.
If we aren’t, we might as well bow before our BLM masters now.
Fight back by standing up and being counted. Support constitutionalism, law and order, and one man who stands between chaos and us – Trump!
ONE MORE THING AND IT’S IMPORTANT
Getting the Marxists out of the entire educational system is what is needed.
The only way I know of doing that is to starve the beast. Defund it all. Not a penny of taxpayer money to the educational system and no tax exemptions. Let them pay property taxes too.

Cher Pushes Bizarre Conspiracy: Suggests Trump ‘Only Wants To Save Whites And White Supremacists’ From Coronavirus

Ever since President Donald Trump took office , the pop singer Cher has become infamous for her frequent unhinged and nonsensical attacks on him .
This week , however , Cher took her craziness to a whole new level when she pushed the bizarre conspiracy theory that Trump does not want to help white liberals through the COVID-19 pandemic .
“ WHAT IF trump DOESNT WANT 2 SAVE ” EVERYONE ” FROM THE VIRUS .NO BLUE STATES , NO PPL OF COLOR , NO POOR , WHITE LIBERALS , ” Cher tweeted using mostly all capital letters .
“ WHAT @ @ @ @ @ @ @ SUPREMACIST.HE LOVES STATUE OF SLAVE OWNER , & MURDERER OF NATIVE AMERICANS .

” Cher was referring to the statue of Andrew Jackson outside the White House , one which Antifa rioters vandalized and tried to remove .
Last month , Trump revealed that he had signed an executive order to protect American monuments from those who wish to harm them .
“ I just had the privilege of signing a very strong Executive Order protecting American Monuments , Memorials , and Statues—and combatting recent Criminal Violence , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ terms for these lawless acts against our Great Country !
” Last month , Cher claimed that if Trump is reelected , he will send America into a “ deadly downward spiral.
” I SAY FLIPPANT THINGS , I ALSO SAY ” MANY ” SERIOUS ONES , BUT WE ARE IN MORE TROUBLE THAN ANY OF US COULD HAVE IMAGINED , ” she wrote .
“ IF trump IS ELECTED 4 A 2ND TIME , WE ’ LL FIND OURSELVES IN DEADLY , DOWNWARD SPIRAL , WE ’ LL NEVER BE ABLE TO @ @ @ @ @ @ @ TAKE US WHERE HE LIVES.
” Cher explained in a recent interview that she has hated Trump since before he took office .
“ I had only heard about him when I lived in New York but I had a place in Aspen and we used to go skiing there , ” she said .
“ I met him a couple of times at a restaurant called Mezzaluna .
He was always so starved for attention .
Everyone in there was rich or famous , but he kept getting up to get salt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the bathroom.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-05--Democrat Sen. Tammy Duckworth Tells CNN She’s Open To Tearing Down Washington, Jefferson Statues

Senator Tammy Duckworth ( D-IL ) , who is said to be on the shortlist of people in the running to be Joe Biden ’ s running mate , just gave a disturbing interview in which she is open to removing statues of founding fathers George Washington and Thomas Jefferson .
She said this while appearing on CNN ‘ s “ State of the Union ” on Sunday .
“ Senator , I know that you support change in the name of military bases named after Confederate leaders , but there are leaders like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bash asked .
“ And some people are demanding their monuments come down , too .
In your view , where does it end ?
Should statues , for example , of George Washington come down ?
” Duckworth initially tried to get around answering the question by talking about President Donald Trump ’ s speech at Mount Rushmore on Friday .
“ Well , let me just say we should start off by having a national dialogue on it at some point , ” Duckworth said .
“ But right now we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ global pandemic .
And one of our countries that are opposed to us , Russia , has put a bounty on American troops ’ heads.
” “ What really struck me about this speech that the president gave at Mount Rushmore was that he spent more time worried about honoring dead Confederates than he did talking about the lives of our 130,000 Americans who lost their lives to COVID-19 , or by warning Russia off of the bounties they ’ re putting on Americans ’ heads , ” she added .
“ His @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should be talking about what we ’ re going to do to overcome this pandemic .
What are we going to do to push Russia back ?
Instead , he had no time for that .
He spent all his time talking about dead traitors.
” Bash then posed her question again , asking Duckworth if she thought it was a “ good idea ” to remove statues of Washington .
“ I think we should listen to everybody , ” Duckworth replied .
“ I think we should listen to the argument @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at Mount Rushmore was standing on ground that was stolen from Native Americans who had actually been given that land during a treaty.
” This woman could soon be a heartbeat away from the presidency .
Let that sink in .

She said this while appearing on CNN‘s “State of the Union” on Sunday.
“Senator, I know that you support change in the name of military bases named after Confederate leaders, but there are leaders like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson who were slave owners,” host Dana Bash asked. “And some people are demanding their monuments come down, too. In your view, where does it end? Should statues, for example, of George Washington come down?”
Duckworth initially tried to get around answering the question by talking about President Donald Trump’s speech at Mount Rushmore on Friday. “Well, let me just say we should start off by having a national dialogue on it at some point,” Duckworth said. “But right now we’re in the middle of a global pandemic.

He should be talking about what we’re going to do to overcome this pandemic. What are we going to do to push Russia back? Instead, he had no time for that.
