“ Which means Trump ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at that exact moment to distract .
Tomorrow may be the day he tweets a d*ck pic !
Can ’ t wait !
” Yes , you read that correctly .
Just when we thought Midler couldn ’ t get any crazier , she climbs the ladder of lewdness .
Midler had already showed us that there was no limit to where she would take her passionate hatred for Trump .
Last week , she sank to a new low when she blamed him for the death of black conservative Herman Cain , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coronavirus last month at the age of 73 .
“ Donnie , you silly man !
You said your friend Herman Cain died of the ‘ China Virus , ’ ” said Midler .
“ Listen , I ’ m no Chinacologist , but they ’ re not the ones who held a flop rally in Tulsa where attendees skipped masks .
Everyone knows it ’ s your fault .
Maybe soon we ’ ll call it the Resigner Virus !

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-06--DNC Source Says Biden VP Pick Is Down To Two

A source at the Democratic National Committee ( DNC ) has told that the Biden search for a running mate has been narrowed down to two people : Rep. Val Demings of Florida and Rep. Karen Bass of California .
Both are black females , thus keeping with the racial quotas now in place in the deeply racist Democratic Party .
An announcement is set to be made within hours , if not tomorrow .
Given Florida is a battleground state , Demings is far and away the best political choice .
She presents no worse than your typical Democrat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ impeachment hearings , and is not prone to public communist statements and enthusiasms .
Bass is altogether different .
As chair of the Congressional Black Caucus , Bass ’ demeanor has been odd of late .
The CBC is a hard-left group and has been for some time .
But Bass recently broke ranks and did not support the defund the police movement beloved by many members of the CBC .
Did she do so to make herself more politically palatable to voters and/or Joe Biden ?
But the real interesting move , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ turnaround on communism and Cuba .
As a student radical Bass took a trip to the country in 1970 and came back with nothing but hippy drippy commie praise for the brutal island dictatorship and American foe .
She even referred to Castro as “ commander in chief ” of Florida ’ s Cuban exile community .
She also called the joyous event of Castro ’ s demise “ a great loss to the Cuban people.
” That stuff is , of course , barking loony .
But such was her thrall to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to spread the gospel of Marxist glory to this country .
But now that power beckons she likely has not changed her views , just what she says in public .
Thus , on NBC… “ There were over 100 young people there , and all of us worked on different issues .
We had the ability to come home and protest against our own government , but the Cuban people most certainly can not do that .
They couldn ’ t do it then and they can ’ t do it now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ understood that why did she sing from the Cuban communist hymnal for several decades after she left the country ?
Why did she mourn Fidel Castro ?
Why did she tell American citizens of Cuban heritage that Castro was their “ commander-in-chief ” ?
Does that sound like someone who has renounced communism ?
But the views of both Demings and Bass don ’ t really matter in the dispositive sense to the national party .
Just like Kluxers of old , the party is just interested in one thing : the color @ @ @ @ @ @ @ harridans and gorgons who run and staff the Democrats also want to make sure a man is not picked for veep because the poor dears have had to put up with an inherently toxic man at the top of the ticket .
But if they win in November , they probably won ’ t have to wait long at all until their veep calls their attorney general and says , “ Tell me about the 25th Amendment.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-06--Black Lives Matter Targets Homes Of Police And Lawmakers

Over the last week , Black Lives Matter rioters and terrorists have targeted the homes of police and elected officials all over the country to try and intimidate them into surrendering to the radical racist agenda of the group .
Two police chiefs and a GOP state legislator are holding firm and not giving in .
After she was harassed at her home , Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best said : “ These direct actions against elected officials , and especially civil servants like myself , are out of line with and go against every democratic principle that guides our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new way of doing business by mob rule here in Seattle , and across the nation , elected officials like you must forcefully call for the end of these tactics.
” Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell commented after his home was targeted : “ Portlanders need to send a strong message that enough is enough .
This is not forwarding the goals that are going to lead to better outcomes for people of color .
This movement is really powerful , but the violence has taken away from it .
… This is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not what we need in our city.
” On police relations with the community and police force reductions , Lovell added : “ A lot of those stops end with handshakes and conversation .
And there ’ s a real familiarity and people miss it .
We hear from a lot of people in the community saying ‘ hey , we need the Gun Violence Reduction Team back .
We need these officers that know our community , that know this issue of gun violence that we really relied on to help @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and a public servant , I see that spectacle is drowning out the voices that need to be heard to make positive change.
” Minnesota GOP State Senator Warren Limmer had his house almost invaded by Black Lives Matter and Antifa thugs : “ We were watching it on my Ring doorbell and…you get a different feeling when you see people slithering up to my front door , opening it and then pounding and yelling , demanding that I come out to greet the mob… And it really isn ’ t anything – @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in America should experience.
” A man , who was shirtless and festooned in a swim cap , bellowed as he banged on Limmer ’ s door , “ You will come and talk to us , otherwise you will never run in ( sic ) office again.
” One woman said , “ the reason we ’ re saying f— 12 is because y ’ all have constantly violated and disrespected us .
So don ’ t come here for nothing .
We don ’ t need you , we ’ re @ @ @ @ @ @ @ re protesting a man that won ’ t pass a bill and do the right thing.
” That statement was later translated into English .
“ You had a rather solemn and dignified request for that freedom to be given to people in the South about desegregation and pursuing civil rights .
And it was solemn , it was dignified , and it was in order .
Compare that today to Black Lives Matter , when much of those rights that were fought for back in the 1960s have already been given , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ loud , profane mob coming to people ’ s houses.
” But perhaps the main chant of the rioters described their views best : “ 1-2-3-4 , murder , genocide and war .
5-6-7-8 , America was never great.
” That ’ s what they believe .
That ’ s who they are .

On police relations with the community and police force reductions, Lovell added:

Minnesota GOP State Senator Warren Limmer had his house almost invaded by Black Lives Matter and Antifa thugs:

A man, who was shirtless and festooned in a swim cap, bellowed as he banged on Limmer’s door, “You will come and talk to us, otherwise you will never run in (sic) office again.”
When police arrived, the mob chanted, “1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11, f— 12.”
One woman said, “the reason we’re saying f— 12 is because y’all have constantly violated and disrespected us. So don’t come here for nothing. We don’t need you, we’re not doing anything wrong. We’re protesting a man that won’t pass a bill and do the right thing.” That statement was later translated into English.
Limmer properly compared 1960s civil rights era protesters to today’s violent thugs:
“You had a rather solemn and dignified request for that freedom to be given to people in the South about desegregation and pursuing civil rights. And it was solemn, it was dignified, and it was in order. Compare that today to Black Lives Matter, when much of those rights that were fought for back in the 1960s have already been given, but now you have nothing but a loud, profane mob coming to people’s houses.”

Donald Trump ’ s reelection campaign just got a huge boost from his daughter Ivanka , who managed to raise $ 4 million for her father ’ s campaign in a virtual fundraiser on Wednesday .
A source with knowledge of the fundraiser told that Ivanka appeared virtually on the Zoom call with Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel .
President Trump himself even made a surprise appearance on the call , much to the joy of his supporters .
The money raised in the fundraiser went directly to the Trump Victory fund , a joint fundraising committee that raises @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the RNC as well as roughly two dozen state parties .
The source added that Ivanka is the second highest requested fundraiser by donors , next to the president himself .
Ivanka ’ s $ 4 million figure is particularly impressive given the fact that it more than doubles the $ 1.7 million that Elizabeth Warren raised for Biden last Friday in a fundraiser of her own .
This comes after the joint Trump/GOP fundraising committee announced that it managed to raise $ 165 million in July , bringing the total amount raised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1 billion .
“ The enthusiasm behind President Trump ’ s re-election continues to grow as July ’ s massive fundraising totals prove , ” Bill Stepien , Trump 2020 campaign manager , said in a statement after the announcement .
Wednesday ’ s fundraiser was the beginning of Ivanka returning to the fundraising fold for her father ’ s campaign .
Later in August , Ivanka is scheduled to travel to Wyoming for a high-dollar fundraiser with prominent GOP businessman Foster Friess .
There , she will be joined by her husband @ @ @ @ @ @ @ brother Donald Trump Jr. and his girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle .
Ivanka proved to be an essential campaign surrogate for her father during the 2016 election , and she also made appearances for various other Republican candidates during the 2016 midterm race .
She has maintained her popularity among Republicans during her father ’ s presidency , serving as one of his most trusted senior advisors in the White House .

Bill Maher Confronts Ex-Clinton Aide About Former President’s Alleged Visit To Epstein’s ‘Sex Island’

Things took an awkward turn on Friday night ’ s episode of “ Real Time ” when host Bill Maher confronted CNN commentator Paul Begala about his former boss Bill Clinton ’ s ties to the late billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein .
“ Now , Bill Clinton .

Things took an awkward turn on Friday night’s episode of “Real Time” when host Bill Maher confronted CNN commentator Paul Begala about his former boss Bill Clinton’s ties to the late billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
“Now, Bill Clinton. People are saying that there are witnesses who saw him on Jeffrey Epstein’s sex island,” Maher began, according to Fox News. “Obviously, it’s denied.”
Begala, who had been a White House advisor to Clinton during his presidency, shook his head, but Maher kept going.
“You shake your head like, ‘Oh that’s impossible! Bill Clinton, a horny guy, on sex island? Ridiculous!'” Maher said mockingly. “Look, it’s possible.”
Maher went on to say that both Bill and Hillary Clinton have become “huge distractions” for the Democratic Party, citing the controversial connection between the former president and the pedophile. This came after new documents came to light tying Clinton to Epstein, and possibly placing him on his infamous private “sex island.”
“My question is, you know, [Clinton] has assets and he has … things that are not quite assets,” Maher said. “And same with Hillary. What do the Democrats — what should they do?”
Begala refused to address the Epstein connection, instead praising his former boss for winning “two landslide elections,” and bringing up Hillary winning the popular vote in the 2016 presidential election.
“Bill Clinton has credibility on the economy, which is the one issue holding Trump up right now. It is still holding him up,” Begala told Maher. “I guess people saw him portray a CEO on a cardboard set for 14 years on NBC because they feel like he’s a businessman. … Bill Clinton can puncture that.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-08--ICE Officials Find ‘Most Sophisticated Tunnel In History’ Along Arizona And Mexican Border

Like a scene from the 1960s film “ The Great Escape , ” ICE officials last week discovered a 1300 foot sophisticated underground tunnel system that ran from the Mexican side of the southern U.S. border to just over the boundary in San Luis , Arizona .
The smuggling operation includes a full ventilation system , electrical wiring , and an actual working railroad .
It was found in late July , before it could be completely finished .
The tunnel was three feet wide and four high .
It was likely to be used not only for human smuggling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ smuggling , and possibly for terrorist infiltration .
There are very probably many more like it , as the United States is literally being invaded from beneath the ground .
Border Patrol Yuma Sector ’ s Acting Chief Patrol Agent Carl Landrum said Thursday , “ This appears to be the most sophisticated tunnel in U.S. history , and certainly the most sophisticated I ’ ve seen in my career .
We will continue to work closely with our partners – Homeland Security Investigations and state and local agencies — to provide the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year another tunnel was found that ran from Tijuana to San Diego .
From Fox News , “ The tunnel originated near the Otay Mesa Port of Entry and measured 4,309 feet long — more than three-quarters of a mile .

Like a scene from the 1960s film “The Great Escape,” ICE officials last week discovered a 1300 foot sophisticated underground tunnel system that ran from the Mexican side of the southern U.S. border to just over the boundary in San Luis, Arizona.
The smuggling operation includes a full ventilation system, electrical wiring, and an actual working railroad.
It was found in late July, before it could be completely finished. The tunnel was three feet wide and four high. It was likely to be used not only for human smuggling and trafficking, but for illegal drug smuggling, and possibly for terrorist infiltration. There are very probably many more like it, as the United States is literally being invaded from beneath the ground.
U.S. officials find 'sophisticated' smuggling tunnel on Mexican border https://t.co/5hftyDP3Md pic.twitter.com/AoB2wqRFSJ — Reuters (@Reuters) August 7, 2020
Border Patrol Yuma Sector’s Acting Chief Patrol Agent Carl Landrum said Thursday, “This appears to be the most sophisticated tunnel in U.S. history, and certainly the most sophisticated I’ve seen in my career. We will continue to work closely with our partners – Homeland Security Investigations and state and local agencies — to provide the best national security possible.”
Earlier this year another tunnel was found that ran from Tijuana to San Diego. From Fox News, “The tunnel originated near the Otay Mesa Port of Entry and measured 4,309 feet long — more than three-quarters of a mile. The next-longest tunnel in the U.S., discovered in San Diego in 2014, was 2,966 feet long.”
“As the U.S. continues to take on the challenges posed by COVID-19, we must secure our borders from illegal aliens who show their complete disregard of even the most basic application of health and safety precautions, which have become our new norm against COVID-19,” said CBP Commissioner Mark Morgan.
He further clarified that criminals and smugglers give false promises to migrants and “have no concern for their safety or the safety of American citizens — again in this backdrop of COVID-19.”
The illegals are stored in crowded and filthy disease-ridden stash houses for up to a week in the scorching heat before infiltration, a scene he described as a “perfect incubator” for coronavirus.
The smugglers who built this wall are likely eagerly anticipating the November American presidential election and a potential Biden win. If that happens the smugglers and human traffickers won’t need to employ elaborate underground systems anymore.
As they will find few if any impediments to business. They will just casually stroll across the unmanned border to the U.S. destination of their choice, secure in the knowledge that ICE and CBP have been neutered to the point of irrelevance.
Gone will be the wall that currently stops them dead in their tracks. Removed will be the electronic surveillance gear that monitors their movements towards the border. And absent will be a president committed to the territorial integrity of the United States.
He’ll have been replaced by a tool of the hard left who will accede to their every demand on completely open borders and much else. Steve McQueen, call your office.

Harry Reid Launches Outrageous Attack On Trump’s Mental State: ‘There’s Something Wrong,’ He’s ‘Getting Worse’

While appearing on CNN ’ s “ Newsroom ” on Friday , former Sen. Harry Reid ( D-NV ) said Donald Trump ’ s mental state appears to be “ getting worse ” after the president claimed that former Vice President Joe Biden was “ against God.
” Reid completely ignored the mental state of Biden , whose many gaffes have led many to question what is going on with him mentally .
“ He ’ s going to do things that nobody ever , would ever think even possible because he is following the racial left agenda , take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amendment , no religion , no anything , ” Trump said , referring to Biden .
“ Hurt the Bible , hurt God .
He ’ s against God .
He ’ s against guns.
” “ Joe Biden , of course , called that shameful .
You ’ re sort of laughing there .
What is your reaction ?
” CNN host Brianna Keilar asked Reid after the clip was played .
“ I think it ’ s just so absolutely crazy , ” Reid said .
“ There ’ s something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ — I keep hoping that he will become more attuned with reality , but he ’ s getting worse .
Joe Biden ’ s against God ?
That ’ s kind of a stretch , I would think.
” “ Joe Biden is a man who ’ s been a devout member of the Catholic faith for a number — for his whole life , and he lives his religion , ” Reid added .
“ He doesn ’ t wear it on his sleeve .
It is a personal thing with him @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is wrong for anyone to attack Joe Biden with his life history because of his religion or lack thereof , ” he said .
“ Joe Biden is a man of integrity , and I ’ m sorry to say our president is just the opposite.
” For anyone to call Trump ’ s mental state into question without acknowledging Biden ’ s many mental lapses is nothing short of nonsense .
Biden can ’ t even get through one interview without suffering a bizarre mental gaffe , which is why Democrats have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ basement as much as possible .
Regardless of which side of the aisle someone is on , we should all be able to agree that if one candidate ’ s mental state should be questioned , it ’ s Biden ’ s .

Reid completely ignored the mental state of Biden, whose many gaffes have led many to question what is going on with him mentally.
“He’s going to do things that nobody ever, would ever think even possible because he is following the racial left agenda, take away your guns, destroy your second amendment, no religion, no anything,” Trump said, referring to Biden. “Hurt the Bible, hurt God. He’s against God. He’s against guns.”
“Joe Biden, of course, called that shameful. You’re sort of laughing there. What is your reaction?” CNN host Brianna Keilar asked Reid after the clip was played.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-07--Trump Calls AOC A ‘Real Beauty,’ Adds That She ‘Knows Nothing’ About The Economy

President Donald Trump just made some surprising comments about radically liberal Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ( D-NY ) , who he described as a “ real beauty.
” However , the president made sure to add that she “ knows nothing ” about the economy .
During a speech in Ohio this week , President Trump said Democrats want to “ inflict a socialist takeover of the U.S. economy known as the horrendous Green New Deal.
” Trump added that the Green New Deal “ was conceived by a young woman AOC — AOC plus three , I say — AOC @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , isn ’ t it ?
” “ She knows as much about the environment — do we have any young children here ?
— as that young child over there .
I think he knows more .
And she certainly knows nothing about the economy , ” he said .
Trump went on to say that if Ocasio-Cortez gets her way with her radical socialist policies , the United States will become like Venezuela , whose economy has been destroyed by socialism .
“ Venezuela was a very wealthy country 20 years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ capita , one of the wealthiest , tremendous oil reserves , everything .
Now they don ’ t have food .
They don ’ t have water .
They don ’ t have medicine .
They don ’ t have anything .
Same thing could happen , ” Trump said .
Not stopping there , Trump also talked about Ocasio-Cortez being opposed to fracking .
“ They want to ban fracking , which will demolish your state , ” he explained .
“ It will demolish Ohio oil and gas jobs .
They @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Accord , where you ’ ll pay billions and billions of dollars for the privilege of getting ripped off by other countries.
” Ocasio-Cortez is known for being one of the most radical liberals in Congress , and for someone as fiercely anti-Republican as her , Trump ’ s comments are sure to ruffle her feathers .
Despite this , however , Ocasio-Cortez has yet to respond directly to Trump ’ s remarks .
Perhaps Trump was so on the nose with this , even the notoriously confrontational Ocasio-Cortez had nothing to clap @ @ @ @ @ @ @ written by PoliZette Staff on August 7 , 2020 .

“ No , in fact , what the president did is —I agreed what the Republican senator said— is unconstitutional slop , ” Pelosi said , referencing statements by Senator Ben Sasse ( R-NE ) slamming President Trump ’ s executive actions .
“ The pen-and-phone theory of executive lawmaking is unconstitutional slop , ” Sasse said in a statement leaked to .
“ President Obama did not have the power to unilaterally rewrite immigration law with DACA , and President Trump does not have the power to unilaterally rewrite the payroll tax law… The swamp should stop pretending there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
… The White House is trying to solve bad polling by agreeing to indefensibly bad debt .
This proposal is not targeted to fix precise problems — it ’ s about Democrats and Trumpers competing to outspend each other.
” Pelosi continued her comments on several news shows : “ While it has the illusion of saying we ’ re going to have a moratorium on evictions , it says I ’ m gon na ask the folks in charge to study if that ’ s feasible .
While he says he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tax , what he ’ s doing is undermining Social Security and Medicare , so these are illusions , ” Pelosi said .
The orders “ don ’ t give the money in enhanced benefits , but puts a complicated formula there which will take a while , if at all , to accomplish to put money in the pockets of the American people.
” “ Today ’ s meager announcements by the president show President Trump still does not comprehend the seriousness or the urgency of the health and economic crises facing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer ( D-NY ) on Saturday .
“ We ’ re disappointed that instead of putting in the work to solve Americans ’ problems , the President instead chose to stay on his luxury golf course to announce unworkable , weak and narrow policy announcements to slash the unemployment benefits that millions desperately need and endanger seniors ’ Social Security and Medicare… ” she added .
“ What the president did doesn ’ t even accomplish what he sets out to do in the categories that he did , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said to them , we ’ ll come down a trillion , you go up a trillion .

” And on yet another show , she stated , “ How do you justify tens of billions of dollars to feed the hungry to $ 250,000 .
You understand how far apart we are just by that example.
” Pelosi also said the GOP proposal didn ’ t include aid to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ elections this fall .
By that she means funding to steal elections by mail-in voting .
Trump announced a group of executive actions on Saturday to help Americans get through the economic situation until a bill is worked out by Congress .
Among the benefits are a renewal of boosted unemployment benefits that were lowered to $ 400-per-week down from $ 600-per-week , a 120-day eviction ban , a payroll tax holiday until the end of the year , and an extension of student loan relief .

One month after the liberal pop star Cher claimed that Donald Trump “ kills Americans without a thought , ” she is doubling down on this outrageous allegation , claiming that the president is responsible for the “ torture and killing ” of 160,000 Americans .

However , that ’ s when Cher ’ s tweet went completely off the rails ; she accused Trump of trying to save his “ mammoth ass ” after selling his soul to Vladimir Putin and torturing and killing 160,000 Americans .
This is undoubtedly a reference to the coronavirus death rates , with Cher conveniently ignoring the fact that COVID-19 originated in China and has killed millions of people all over the globe .
