The Supreme Court ruled in favour of a Trump administration decision that expanded religious exemptions from providing contraception under Obamacare .
Justice Thomas : ‘ Little Sisters Have Engaged In Faithful Service And Sacrifice ’ The 7-2 ruling by the Supreme Court on Wednesday backed The Little Sisters of the Poor , a Catholic organization that provided elderly care but objected to providing contraception under the Affordable Care Act , also known as Obamacare .
The Trump administration in 2017 expanded religious exemptions to the Little Sisters and other groups , but they were challenged by the state of Pennsylvania @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Little Sisters have engaged in faithful service and sacrifice , motivated by a religious calling to surrender all for the sake of their brother , ” Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in the majority ruling .
“ But for the past seven years , they – like many other religious objectors who have participated in the litigation and rulemakings leading up to today ’ s decision – have had to fight for the ability to continue in their noble work without violating their sincerely held religious beliefs.
” “ We hold today that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ craft that exemption , as well as the contemporaneously issued moral exemption .
We further hold that the rules promulgating these exemptions are free from procedural defects , ” Thomas added .
However , Justices Sotomayor and Ginsburg dissented , arguing that “ today , for the first time , the Court casts totally aside countervailing rights and interests in its zeal to secure religious rights to the nth degree.
” Ginsburg claimed that “ this Court leaves women workers to fend for themselves , to seek contraceptive coverage from sources other than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , absent another available source of funding , to pay for contraceptive services out of their own pockets.
” Mother Loraine Marie Maguire of the Little Sisters said in a statement that they were “ overjoyed that , once again , the Supreme Court has protected our right to serve the elderly without violating our faith.
” I think all good conservatives feel the same way , as they recognize that the they should be free to care for so many , without violating the tenets of their faith !
After many defeats @ @ @ @ @ @ @ heartening to see the Supreme Court rule the right way .

A Heartening Decision From The Supreme Court!
However, Justices Sotomayor and Ginsburg dissented, arguing that “today, for the first time, the Court casts totally aside countervailing rights and interests in its zeal to secure religious rights to the nth degree.”
Ginsburg claimed that “this Court leaves women workers to fend for themselves, to seek contraceptive coverage from sources other than their employer’s insurer, and, absent another available source of funding, to pay for contraceptive services out of their own pockets.”
Mother Loraine Marie Maguire of the Little Sisters said in a statement that they were “overjoyed that, once again, the Supreme Court has protected our right to serve the elderly without violating our faith.”
I think all good conservatives feel the same way, as they recognize that the they should be free to care for so many, without violating the tenets of their faith! After many defeats in lower courts, it is certainly heartening to see the Supreme Court rule the right way.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) should also be pressed as to whether or not somebody who wants to topple the American system from the inside out should be a sitting member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, being delivered classified briefings.


thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-08--Tucker Carlson Again Slams Democrats For Hating America, Calls Tammy Duckworth A ‘Coward’

Fox News host Tucker Carlson doubled down on his criticism of Democrats who hate America , again singling out Senator Tammy Duckworth and calling her a “ coward.
” Carlson explained that he had hoped to have a debate with Duckworth ( D-IL ) over removal of the statues of American Founding Fathers on his show , but she refused .
“ We wanted to have an exchange like that with Tammy Duckworth tonight .
So we called her office , and we invited her on the show , ” he explained .
“ Her flack informed us that before @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first issue a public apology for criticizing Tammy Duckworth.
” “ In other words , ‘ I will not debate you until first you admit you ’ re completely wrong , ” Carlson continued .
“ Keep in mind , Tammy Duckworth is not a child , at least not technically , ” he added .
“ She is a sitting United States Senator , who is often described as a hero .
Yet Duckworth is too afraid to defend her own statements on a cable TV show .
What a coward.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when Senator Duckworth suggested she ’ d be open to the idea of removing statues of founding fathers George Washington and Thomas Jefferson .
Her beliefs are not exactly limited , with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi also suggesting there should be a conversation about doing so .
“ Can you really lead a country that you hate ?
” Carslon asked .
“ Ask yourself , what kind of parent would you be if you hated your children ?
” “ We can not let them ( Democrats ) run this nation because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would do to it , ” he wondered .
Duckworth is a combat veteran of the Iraq War , where she suffered severe wounds leading to the loss of both of her legs and some mobility in her right arm .
Her service and sacrifice to this country can never be questioned .
But that doesn ’ t mean she ’ s immune to criticism , and hiding behind that service is not , as Carlson suggests , what an adult would do .
Is Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw immune to criticism in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
Does nobody recall Obama supporters and the media mocking the late John McCain for being unable to lift his arms to type on a computer ?
Of course not .
Tucker even predicted that he would receive backlash for criticizing Duckworth because she ’ s ‘ off-limits.
’ “ You ’ re not supposed to criticize Tammy Duckworth in any way because she once served in the military , ” he said .
“ Most people just ignore her.
” Just as he said , Duckworth ’ s only response to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ … shame Carlson over her disability .
“ Does [ Tucker Carlson ] want to walk a mile in my legs and then tell me whether or not I love America ?
” she tweeted .
No , he ’ s made it very clear what he ’ d like to ask .
“ Our first question would be , how can you lead a country you despise ?
” tucker said .
“ And that ’ s not something we would ask only to Tammy Duckworth , by the way .
Hating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Democratic Party right now .
It ’ s everywhere .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-08--Sean Hannity Goes After de Blasio And Cuomo – Pulls No Punches

Fox News host Sean Hannity went off on a tear Tuesday night and eviscerated New York City ’ s Marxist Mayor Bill de Blasio and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo , on the subject that hits home to most New Yorkers : rising crime and the mayor ’ s inability to stop it .
What does de Blasio do instead ?
He targets the police for criticism and massive budget cuts .
“ Comrade de Blasio , well , he ’ s done a lot of things , a lot of horrible things that ’ s destroying New York City @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The anti-crime plainclothes police officers in the NYPD , that unit has been disbanded , is completely eliminated [ as is ] the effective policy that we call ‘ stop and frisk.
’ He cut the NYPD budget by over a billion dollars and now state lawmakers might force police to buy their own personal insurance for liability lawsuits.
” “ I guess my only advice , if I ’ m going to be a friend to the people I love —frankly , adore and admire— for their sacrifice , service and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us : I guess if you ’ re a cop and you can retire , now is the time .
If you ’ re new on the job , you might want to think about another job , ” said Hannity .
This is surprising advice from the popular conservative television show host .
But it has become so bad in New York that it has logically come to this point .
Why should good men and women in blue risk their lives for a mayor who clearly loathes them and a city @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Blasio ?
“ New York City is basically giving you the middle finger and they ’ re also making it impossible to do your job to protect and serve your local community .
Meanwhile , far-left Governor Andrew Cuomo , well , he signed off on that insane , idiotic bail reform policy.
” “ He ’ s the one that signed the bill that allows violent offenders to get out of jail the exact same day without posting a penny in bail .
Nothing whatsoever .
In other words , the consequences @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mean ] it is now dire in New York City and state.
” Hannity correctly understands the relationship between the city and the state .
Although de Blasio and Cuomo are said to hate each other , they are united in one , perhaps , unintentional goal : The destruction of the city of New York .
“ What ’ s happening in New York is the direct result of de Blasio and Cuomo ’ s failed policies .
When laws are not enforced , when police budgets are slashed , when cops @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out of jail without any bail , chaos , carnage , predictably , will always ensue .
Always .
It ’ s not a hard mathematical formula , ” Hannity lamented .
In New York , police officers are under fire from rioters , criminals , and their own city government .
Police families are scared and frustrated .
Citizens , the ones not throwing Molotov cocktails at squad cars , are seeing a once safe city while under GOP mayors descend into Gotham-like anarchy .
What do the mayor and governor do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crisis .
It ’ s a helluva way to run a town .

“What’s happening in New York is the direct result of de Blasio and Cuomo’s failed policies. When laws are not enforced, when police budgets are slashed, when cops are not supported, when criminals get out of jail without any bail, chaos, carnage, predictably, will always ensue. Always.

In New York, police officers are under fire from rioters, criminals, and their own city government. Police families are scared and frustrated. Citizens, the ones not throwing Molotov cocktails at squad cars, are seeing a once safe city while under GOP mayors descend into Gotham-like anarchy.
What do the mayor and governor do? Fight amongst themselves and ignore the crisis. It’s a helluva way to run a town.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-07-08--Would-Be President Kanye West Gives Bizarre Anti-Biden Interview

Singer Kanye West gave an interview to Forbes magazine that hit the stands on Wednesday .
In it the rap mogul says things that have been written as comedy , written as support for the president , or written to portray West , perhaps in reality , as out of his mind .
His reason for running against the president , a man who he has strongly supported ?
Because West “ caught wind that he hid in the bunker ” during riots near the White House last month .
The president has called the report false .
West announced @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tweet .
He says he considers himself a Republican but will run as an Independent .
The interview was long and wide-ranging .
But perhaps the key to it is this quote : “ I was threatened as a Black man into the Democratic party .
And that ’ s what the Democrats are doing , emotionally , to my people .
Threatening them to the point where this white man can tell a Black man if you don ’ t vote for me , you ’ re not Black.
” This is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Joe Biden .
Notice the last line and the reference to Biden ’ s disastrous interview with the radio host Charlamagne tha God .
West went on , “ I ’ m not saying Trump ’ s in my way , he may be a part of my way .
And Joe Biden ?
Like come on man , please .
You know ?
Trump ’ s special .
We say Kanye West is special .
Joe Biden ’ s not special.
” The reference to himself in the third person is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tendencies .
But again , the hit on Biden takes center stage .
Thus the entire “ run ” for office could just be an effort to alienate black voters from Joe Biden and the Democrats .
The rest of the interview is so bizarre as to give credence to that theory .
West told the magazine that he is pro-life , pro-school prayer , and against the death penalty .
Ok , all understandable political positions .
Then he goes off the rails .
Throughout the entire interview he repeatedly mentions the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what he means , West responds , “ Because when we win , it ’ s everybody ’ s birthday.
” Ok then , right .
He also told the magazine that his campaign slogan will be “ YES !
” Yes to giving Donald Trump 40 percent of the black vote perhaps .
West has not made any moves to officially register as a candidate , he may be trying to avoid the stringent financial disclosure requirements , and will miss the filing deadlines in some states in less than a month @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to care .
Not exactly the attitude of a serious candidate .
West also emphasized that he is pro-China and claims to have contracted coronavirus in February .
West said stopping police brutality is “ [ o ] ne of my to-do lists , ” that he would manage the White House like the fictional country Wakanda from the movie “ Black Panther , ” and that Black History Month is “ torture porn.
” It goes downhill from there—or uphill depending on your sense of humor .
“ When I become president @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will open all the way back up from Nigeria to Nanchang and the world will see the greatest athletes play .
The world will experience the change in their element .
The money is gon na come back .
I love China .
I love China .
It ’ s not China ’ s fault that disease .
It ’ s not the Chinese people ’ s fault .
They ’ re God ’ s people also .
I love China .
It changed my life.
” He has already picked his veep @ @ @ @ @ @ @ named Michelle Tidball , who the magazine termed “ an obscure preacher from Wyoming.
” West had said in 2018 , “ You don ’ t have to agree with Trump but the mob can ’ t make me not love him .
We are both dragon energy .
He is my brother.
” If this ploy works as the president or his team may have designed it , and it increases Trump ’ s share of the black vote by double digits , his brother may love him back even more .

“When I become president —let me make some promises— the NBA will open all the way back up from Nigeria to Nanchang and the world will see the greatest athletes play. The world will experience the change in their element. The money is gonna come back. I love China. I love China. It’s not China’s fault that disease. It’s not the Chinese people’s fault. They’re God’s people also. I love China. It changed my life.”
He has already picked his veep candidate. She is an unknown individual named Michelle Tidball, who the magazine termed “an obscure preacher from Wyoming.”
West had said in 2018, “You don’t have to agree with Trump but the mob can’t make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother.”
If this ploy works as the president or his team may have designed it, and it increases Trump’s share of the black vote by double digits, his brother may love him back even more.

Chelsea Handler Says It’s ‘Not Enough’ To Say You Aren’t Racist: Demands Whites Work ‘To Dismantle The System’

Comedian Chelsea Handler just launched into what can only be described as an unhinged attack on white people , saying that it ’ s “ not enough ” for them to say that they aren ’ t racist .
Instead , she said all white people must work to “ dismantle the system.
” While promoting her new book “ Life Will Be the Death of Me : …And You Too !
” on NPR , Handler discussed the therapy that she felt that she had to get in order to deal with Donald Trump winning the 2016 presidential election @ @ @ @ @ @ @ experience in therapy that led to her making her Netflix special “ Hello Privilege .
It ’ s Me , Chelsea , ” which delved into her “ white privilege.
” Handler explained that “ after therapy and kind of taking a look at myself and my surroundings and coming to the realization that my success has a lot to do with my skin color , I wanted to really do something that set an example about how to , you know , contribute because at this point , it ’ s not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not racist.
” “ You know , you have to be— we have to be working to dismantle the system because we are reaping the benefits in exchange for people losing benefits , ” added the comedian , who as you can see is not very funny these days .
Handler went on to recall when one of her friends grew “ weepy ” while talking about the book “ White Fragility.
” Handler , however , was not having any of that show of emotions .
“ I was like , this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And she was like , no , I ’ m just telling you .
I go , don ’ t .
No , you can ’ t talk to me about it either anymore .
No more white people should be talking about how sad they are .

Let ’ s fix the problem , ” she said .

A Black Lives Matter protestor was hit with a nasty dose of karma last night after he decided to batter a black supporter of Donald Trump right in front of several police officers .

Susan Rosenberg, a convicted terrorist, is currently on the executive board of Thousand Currents, the group that provides funding for Black Lives Matter.
A Literal Communist Terrorist!
In the 1970s and 1980s, Rosenberg was involved in the May 19th Communist Organization, a terrorist group that was behind multiple bomb attacks. The group also provided support to the Black Liberation Army, a black supremacist terror organization.
She was charged with being involved in the 1983 bombings of the Capitol Building, the US National War College, and the New York Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association, although these charges were later dropped in a plea deal by other group members. She was suspected of being involved with the 1981 Brink’s Robbery that resulted in the death of a guard and two police officers, and was also sought after in connection of the prison escape of Assata Shakur, a murderer and leader of the BLA.
Rosenberg was jailed for 58 years in 1984 for explosives possession, but was released on January 20th 2001, with her sentence commuted by outgoing President Bill Clinton. Now, 19 years later, is the Vice Chair of Thousand Currents. Rosenberg’s group “provides the legal and administrative framework” that lets Black Lives Matter “fulfill its mission,” according to their website.
Black Lives Matter Are Dangerous
Bernard Kerik, the former NYPD Commissioner, told Tucker Carlson about Rosenberg’s criminal past on his show on Fox News on Wednesday evening.
Rosenberg “was a radical revolutionary… and now she’s out. Who does she work for? Black Lives Matter,” Kerik said. “We’re missing something here. I think the DOJ should be looking at Black Lives Matter as a terrorist organisation.”
“Black Lives Matter is a revolutionary Marxist group,” he continued. “It wants to overthrow this government and this country.” We know this from their leaders, who are admitted Marxists, and now the people behind the scenes, including Rosenberg. Even if Black Lives Matter itself was seemingly unblemished, being controlled by a literal convicted terrorist, should make everyone concerned.
