CNN’s Don Lemon Has Deranged Meltdown On Armed Lockdown Protesters: ‘Who The Hell Do You Think You Are?’

CNN host Don Lemon came completely unglued on Monday night as he blasted gun-toting protesters who are calling for the country to be reopened .
Lemon lost it on the protesters , who are just trying to ensure that officials don ’ t use the coronavirus pandemic to seize power , claiming that they are “ slapping the faces ” of healthcare workers on the front-lines .
“ You ’ re out there with guns , with weapons strapped to your chest , saying , oh , you want to get — you ’ re fighting against the people who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , trying to save your lives , you ’ re upset with those people ?
In the meantime , there are people keeping your cities going , keeping your loved ones alive and you want to get a haircut ?
” Lemon exclaimed .
“ Who the hell do you think you are ?
” he added .
“ What is wrong with people ?
I don ’ t understand.
” After briefly acknowledging that Americans are fully within their rights to protest , Lemon returned to bashing them .
“ I don @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people who are out there protesting with guns , right , and that is threatening — a threatening look for people .
You ’ re protesting with guns , ” Lemon said .
“ Don ’ t— don ’ t criticize people who are taking a knee at a ball game , entertainment , saying , ‘ I don ’ t want people protesting at a ball game , ’ when people are who are peacefully protesting — don ’ t give me that when you ’ re out there protesting with guns @ @ @ @ @ @ @ get back to work , I want my liberty . '
” This came hours after ABC host Joy Behar compared the gun-toting protesters to “ terrorists.
” “ Why are you bringing guns to a rally ?
You want to call yourself protesters , leave your guns home .
Those are terrorists who bring guns to things , ” she said on Monday ’ s episode of “ The View.
” It ’ s ironic that after years of supporting liberals who protest against President Donald Trump in every way imaginable , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by conservatives who are simply protesting in the hopes of getting our country back to the way it was just a few weeks ago .
The conservative protesters aren ’ t asking for anything major ; they just want to get our country back on the rails like it was before this pandemic , but this apparently is too much for Lemon to comprehend .
The hypocrisy of the liberal media never ceases to amaze .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-21--President Trump Wins On PPP Funding, Pelosi And Schumer Lose Again

Tuesday morning President Trump won his second victory over House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ( D-CA ) and Senator Chuck Schumer ( D-NY ) on virus funding , as the Democrats surrendered and agreed to stop trying to insert leftist non-virus funding into the coronavirus small business funding bill .
The deal includes $ 310 billion for the Small Business Administration ’ s Paycheck Protection Program ( PPP ) ; $ 60 billion set aside for small lenders and community financial institutions ; $ 50 billion for the Economic Injury Disaster Loan program ; $ 25 billion for COVID-19 testing ; @ @ @ @ @ @ @ President Trump urged Congress to pass the bill : “ After I sign this Bill , we will begin discussions on the next Legislative Initiative with fiscal relief…to State/Local Governments for lost revenues from COVID 19 , much needed Infrastructure Investments for Bridges , Tunnels , Broadband , Tax Incentives for Restaurants , Entertainment , Sports , and Payroll Tax Cuts to increase Economic Growth.
” GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell ( R-KY ) savored his victory : “ I am encouraged that Democratic leaders have finally agreed to reopen the Paycheck @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their unrelated demands.
” Why Pelosi and Schumer embarked on this doomed legislative course of meaningless delay is anyone ’ s guess , as this was almost exactly the same outcome as happened mere weeks ago when they lost the first coronavirus funding battle .
The dance goes like this : The White House proposes a reasonable plan , Democrats call the president insane , constituents and businesses start to lobby Congress to accept the plan , Democrats say they will never accept the plan , the White House opens negotiations , Democrats @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they will never surrender , the Democrats surrender .
Protests from coast to coast on Tuesday no doubt brought pressure on Democrats to bend a knee and give in .
Protesting voters want state governments to reopen businesses , schools , and pave the way for a return to normal lifestyles .
But that can ’ t happen if businesses close forever before they get PPP funding .
Now they will get the funding over the bulldozed political bodies of the Democrats .
America wins .

Tuesday morning President Trump won his second victory over House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on virus funding, as the Democrats surrendered and agreed to stop trying to insert leftist non-virus funding into the coronavirus small business funding bill.
The deal includes $310 billion for the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP); $60 billion set aside for small lenders and community financial institutions; $50 billion for the Economic Injury Disaster Loan program; $25 billion for COVID-19 testing; and $75 billion for hospitals.
President Trump urged Congress to pass the bill: “After I sign this Bill, we will begin discussions on the next Legislative Initiative with fiscal relief…to State/Local Governments for lost revenues from COVID 19, much needed Infrastructure Investments for Bridges, Tunnels, Broadband, Tax Incentives for Restaurants, Entertainment, Sports, and Payroll Tax Cuts to increase Economic Growth.”
GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) savored his victory: “I am encouraged that Democratic leaders have finally agreed to reopen the Paycheck Protection Program and abandon a number of their unrelated demands.”
Why Pelosi and Schumer embarked on this doomed legislative course of meaningless delay is anyone’s guess, as this was almost exactly the same outcome as happened mere weeks ago when they lost the first coronavirus funding battle. The dance goes like this: The White House proposes a reasonable plan, Democrats call the president insane, constituents and businesses start to lobby Congress to accept the plan, Democrats say they will never accept the plan, the White House opens negotiations, Democrats call the president a racist and vow they will never surrender, the Democrats surrender.
Protests from coast to coast on Tuesday no doubt brought pressure on Democrats to bend a knee and give in. Protesting voters want state governments to reopen businesses, schools, and pave the way for a return to normal lifestyles. But that can’t happen if businesses close forever before they get PPP funding. Now they will get the funding over the bulldozed political bodies of the Democrats. America wins.

President Trump Releases Epic New ‘Nancy Antoinette’ Ad Mocking Pelosi For Infamous Ice Cream Debacle

The coronavirus pandemic has wreaked havoc on the United States over the past month , causing 22 million Americans to lose their jobs and thousands to die , yet that did not stop House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ( D-CA ) from showing off her ice cream collection to James Corden in a tone-deaf late-night interview .
This has now come back to bite Pelosi , however , as President Donald Trump has turned her appearance into a hilarious campaign ad .
During the late-night interview , which took place earlier this month , a carefree Pelosi showed off her refrigerators @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ Since you ’ ve been isolated in your house , how much of your regular diet do you think is ice cream and candy , ” Corden asked .
“ Well , as much as possible .
I enjoy it .
I like it better than anything else , ” Pelosi replied .
“ And I don ’ t know why , but it seems to agree with me .
I have a lot of energy .
And we just got it restocked — the ice cream — for Easter Sunday.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on her official Twitter page , writing , “ We all have found our ways to keep our spirits up during these trying times .
Mine just happens to fill up my freezer.
” Backlash against Pelosi for the interview was swift , however , as many compared her to Marie Antoinette , the French queen who famously said “ let them eat cake ” as her people starved in the lead-up to the French Revolution .
On Monday , Team Trump turned this debacle of an interview into a hilarious “ Nancy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The effective commercial intersperses clips of the country struggling with clips from Pelosi ’ s ice cream interview , with on-screen declarations that highlight the juxtaposition including : Pelosi ’ s interview with Corden perfectly sums up how out of touch with reality she and her fellow Democrats are .
Bravo to Trump and his team for using this interview to expose Pelosi as the smug liberal elitist that she is !

“Since you’ve been isolated in your house, how much of your regular diet do you think is ice cream and candy,” Corden asked.

Pelosi even proudly tweeted out the interview on her official Twitter page, writing, “We all have found our ways to keep our spirits up during these trying times. Mine just happens to fill up my freezer.”

“Not Everyone Has a $24,000.00 Stocked Fridge”
“Pelosi Snacks on Ice Cream”
“While Americans Lose Their Paychecks”
“‘Let Them Eat Ice Cream’ — Nancy Antoinette”
Pelosi’s interview with Corden perfectly sums up how out of touch with reality she and her fellow Democrats are. Bravo to Trump and his team for using this interview to expose Pelosi as the smug liberal elitist that she is!

thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-21--San Bernardino Sheriff Blasts California For $0 Cash Bail Mandate Forcing Release Of Child Molesters

The Sheriff of San Bernardino County has blasted California for introducing a new emergency $ 0 cash bail that forced him to release a suspected child abuser .
In order to reduce jail numbers during the coronavirus crisis , the California Judicial Council issued a rule dictating that all misdemanor and most felony suspects will have a cash bail automatically set at $ 0 .
There are 13 exceptions to this for felonies that are serious and violent , including murder and domestic abuse suspects .
However , Sheriff John McMahon of San Bernardino County said the rule was dangerous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t think it ’ s good government , and it ’ s not safe to force the release of people on zero bail , ” McMahon told Fox News .
“ We ’ ve already started releasing those fresh arrests that weren ’ t on the list of 13 , ” McMahon continued .
“ The first night into Tuesday morning , there were 6 people arrested on felonies and were released on zero bail.
” McMahon was furious that he was forced to release a suspect that had been arrested for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was not on the list of 13 exemptions .
“ So even though this guy had a prior for domestic violence conviction for child abuse , he gets arrested for child abuse again , and then he gets released on zero bail with a court date in July , ” McMahon said , adding : So that just doesn ’ t make any sense to me , maybe I ’ m missing something , but that doesn ’ t seem to me to be the right thing to do to protect the citizens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is in our custody , we can protect the victim , if he ’ s not , we can ’ t .
In today ’ s times , you have to work pretty hard to get into jail , and the folks that are in custody are generally the bad folks , and they ’ re in jail for a reason… To come in for felony child abuse and you have priors for it , and to get released on zero bail and walk right back out of the jail , that is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s not safe for our residents , and it is frustrating , absolutely .
RELATED : Scarborough Compares Trump to Mussolini For Wanting To Reopen Economy To rub salt in the wound , McMahon said that there is no overcrowding problem in San Bernardino County , and that prisoners have to wear masks while locked up .
“ Our jail system has 7,700 beds and our current population today is like 5,020 , so there ’ s 2,700 empty beds in our system , ” he explained .

Why do they once again wish to endanger American citizens during a time of crisis ?

The Democrats in California should be locked up for releasing @ @ @ @ @ @ @

The Sheriff of San Bernardino County has blasted California for introducing a new emergency $0 cash bail that forced him to release a suspected child abuser.
McMahon: Policy Is “Not Good Government”
In order to reduce jail numbers during the coronavirus crisis, the California Judicial Council issued a rule dictating that all misdemanor and most felony suspects will have a cash bail automatically set at $0. There are 13 exceptions to this for felonies that are serious and violent, including murder and domestic abuse suspects.
However, Sheriff John McMahon of San Bernardino County said the rule was dangerous and unsafe.
“I just don’t think it’s good government, and it’s not safe to force the release of people on zero bail,” McMahon told Fox News. “We’ve already started releasing those fresh arrests that weren’t on the list of 13,” McMahon continued. “The first night into Tuesday morning, there were 6 people arrested on felonies and were released on zero bail.”
McMahon was furious that he was forced to release a suspect that had been arrested for child abuse, as felony child abuse was not on the list of 13 exemptions.
“So even though this guy had a prior for domestic violence conviction for child abuse, he gets arrested for child abuse again, and then he gets released on zero bail with a court date in July,” McMahon said, adding:
So that just doesn’t make any sense to me, maybe I’m missing something, but that doesn’t seem to me to be the right thing to do to protect the citizens of our county. If that person is in our custody, we can protect the victim, if he’s not, we can’t. In today’s times, you have to work pretty hard to get into jail, and the folks that are in custody are generally the bad folks, and they’re in jail for a reason… To come in for felony child abuse and you have priors for it, and to get released on zero bail and walk right back out of the jail, that is not good government, and it’s not safe for our residents, and it is frustrating, absolutely.

The California Judicial Council Is Dangerous!
To rub salt in the wound, McMahon said that there is no overcrowding problem in San Bernardino County, and that prisoners have to wear masks while locked up.
“Our jail system has 7,700 beds and our current population today is like 5,020, so there’s 2,700 empty beds in our system,” he explained.
A prosecutor for LA County also blasted the new rules, saying, “You will go to jail if you spit on your spouse, but if you give your child a black eye, you’re free to go.”
A spokesman for the California Judicial Council said that they couldn’t “offer any legal interpretation of the new emergency rules,” but “the emergency rule that established the temporary bail schedule was put in place as a way to balance public safety with public health,” adding that “in cases where there is a concern for safety, we know many courts are working closely with local justice system partners in making release decisions.”

This is more dangerous behaviour from California! Why do they once again wish to endanger American citizens during a time of crisis? Even if jails were overcrowded, why isn’t felony child abuse on the list of exempted felonies from this $0 cash bail?! The Democrats in California should be locked up for releasing these dangerous criminals back into society.


thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-21--Rosie O’Donnell Predicts President Trump Will Lose In A Landslide

Radically liberal actress Rosie O ’ Donnell , who has been in a bitter feud with Donald Trump for over a decade , spoke out on Monday to predict that the current president will lose in a landslide in November .
“ I think November we ’ re gon na be a landslide and take him out , that ’ s what I have to believe , ” O ’ Donnell said when asked about the upcoming election during an appearance on Marc Maron ’ s podcast .
“ I firmly believe that the heart of the nation is bigger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rise to the occasion and vote him out .
That ’ s what I hope.
” O ’ Donnell went on to talk about the two times she met Trump in person , and to say that she holds “ The Apprentice ” creator and producer Mark Burnett personally responsible for the president ’ s rise to power .
“ I met him once , twice , once at his wedding , because when he was marrying Marla Maples , we had shared a mutual leading man , ” she said .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the celebrity , I mean at the ‘ Survivor ’ finale .
I was the host of the ‘ Survivor ’ finale and he was in talking terms with Mark Burnett to see about doing ‘ The Apprentice.
’ ” O ’ Donnell then confirmed that she blames Burnett “ for the vast majority of the problems ” America is facing , claiming that she had warned him about giving Trump a platform .
“ I feel Mark Burnett is directly , personally responsible , ” O ’ Donnell said .
“ He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and I really liked him and then he did this ‘ Apprentice.
’ And I kept saying to him , ‘ What the hell are you doing ?
What are you putting up this guy as Mr. [ Successful ] ?
’ ” O ’ Donnell has made many predictions about Trump over the years that have turned out to be dead wrong .
Last year , she predicted that he would be arrested before the 2020 election could take place , which seems unlikely to happen now to say the least .

“ I believe in America and I believe in our political system and I believe we will right the wrong of the tyranny of Donald Trump.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-21--Rep. Jim Jordan: Immigration Moratorium ‘Common Sense’ In A Pandemic

MSNBC continued to shamelessly make the coronavirus pandemic all about race on Sunday, when they allowed a group of “experts” to outrageously claim that anyone who wants the country to be reopened actually wants “more black and brown people to die.”
During Sunday’s episode of “AM Joy” with Joy Reid, Boston Globe op-ed writer Renee Graham said that she doesn’t think the protesters who are calling for the country to reopen actually care about losing their jobs, businesses, and livelihoods. Instead, all Graham sees is “a bunch of white people” who are protesting because they want to see more black and brown people die.

Of course, Reid didn’t challenge Graham on this, so it should come as no surprise that she also didn’t speak up when The Root‘s senior writer Michael Harriot said that the protesters are saying “quite clearly” that they “want more black and brown people to die.”
“If you want the government to open up, then you want more black and brown people to die,” Harriot added. While reports have been coming in this week indicating that African Americans may be being disproportionately affected by coronavirus, thousands of white people all over the world have been killed from the virus as well, so it’s ridiculous to argue that white people think it doesn’t affect them.
It’s also preposterous to imply that these protesters have not been impacted by COVID-19 in any way, given the fact that many of them have lost their jobs and seen their businesses go under because of the pandemic.

According to the documentary, CIA agents said they had another opportunity to take out Bin Laden with very little collateral damage.
Afghan tribal networks revealed that Bin Laden would be traveling a particular route and suggested U.S. military forces bury explosives ahead of his journey.
“We said absolutely not,” former CIA station chief Bob Grenier explained. “We were risking jail if we didn’t tell them that.”
Why?
“The CIA had a so-called ‘lethal finding’ [bill] that had been signed by President Clinton that said that we could engage in ‘lethal activity’ against bin Laden, but the purpose of our attack against bin Laden couldn’t be to kill him,” Grenier detailed.
“We were being asked to remove this threat to the United States essentially with one hand tied behind our backs.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-04-21--Trump Wins Battle Of The Chinese Campaign Ads

President Trump has been getting great political mileage out of reminding people in ads what Joe Biden said after the president banned travel from China in late January .
Biden then attacked with , “ This is no time for Donald Trump ’ s record of hysteria and xenophobia – hysterical xenophobia – and fear mongering to lead the way instead of science.
” Soon Biden was agreeing with Trump and choking on his own words .
A similar fate awaits Democrats on the immigration suspension .
So to try and regain some initiative the Biden campaign recently released an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ response in regards to China .
Biden tries to come off as tough against the Chinese .
He ’ s laughable .
But some Democrats like the ad .
The hard left of the party does not .
They accuse Biden of being too harsh on China in some of the same terms they use against the president .
This does not bode well for Democrat party unity in the fall .
The Democrat hard left calls the Biden ad “ racist ” and “ xenophobic.
” Gee , where have we heard @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feel , eh Joe ?
As such , Glenn Greenwald said that the Democrats who previously slammed Trump ’ s words towards China as “ racist ” are now spreading the same ideas .
“ Trump ’ s response to COVID-19 has been inept and self-serving , but wow this ( the Biden ad ) is some xenophobic messaging… ” said left wing pundit Walker Bragman .
“ Xenophobic ” again .
Snicker , snicker .
“ It ’ s exhausting how people are praising a dog-whistling ad that leans on yellow peril @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what you have to do when your candidate has no intention of fixing the structural problems that got us into this mess to begin with , ” Bolshie writer E. Alex Jung opined .
“ Wow  @ JoeBiden .
Already trying to out-Trump Trump .
This kind of fear mongering is causing violent attacks on Asian Americans .
If you are trying to reform your past history of racist policymaking , like your 1994 crime bill , you had better do some homework .

Quite a feat , when you consider the robust competition .

Joe needs to focus on getting Democrats and Independents excited , not courting hard-core racists .
