Barack Obama has reportedly just warned top Democratic donors that this election is far from a lock for Joe Biden because President Donald Trump’s voters are “glued” to rightwing outlets like Fox News and Breitbart News.
Over the past two months, Obama has raised $24 million for Biden by having conversations with people like LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, actor George Clooney, as well as with top party leaders, according to The New York Times. Donors who have paid six-figure sums have been given the opportunity to watch these conversations on Zoom.
In these talks, Obama claimed that because the mainstream media doesn’t reach some Trump supporters, they can filter “out any contradictory information” by getting their news from Breitbart News, Fox News, and Rush Limbaugh.
“It’s just glued to Fox News and Breitbart and Limbaugh and just this conservative echo chamber — and so, they’re going to turn out to vote,” Obama reportedly said in a discussion with Illinois Democrat Governor J.B. Pritzker.
“What he has unleashed and what he continues to try to tap into is the fears and anger and resentment of people who, in some cases, really are having a tough time and have seen their prospects, or communities where they left, declining,” he allegedly added. “And Trump tries to tap into that and redirect in nativist, racist, sexist ways.”
The Times reported that Obama also has said that he sees Trump as a threat to American democracy, “even making an oblique reference to Nazi Germany” during one of the conversations.
“The endpoint of that we saw in Europe 60 years ago, 70 years ago — what happens when those things get unleashed,” Obama allegedly said in one of the conversations. “You don’t nip that in the bud, bad things can happen. Among the most ‘civilized societies.’”
One of the main things that Obama is adamant about with Biden donors is that they not take his chances at winning this election for granted.
“We already saw this guy win once,” Obama reportedly said. “After he bragged about physically assaulting women — and that didn’t seem to matter. So, enough said. Let’s get to work.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-01--Pelosi Pushes Marijuana As Therapy For COVID Patients

During her weekly press conference on Friday , House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ( D-CA ) defended the fact that the House has included cannabis in its coronavirus legislation , adding that marijuana “ is a therapy that has proven successful ” and is related to aiding COVID-19 patients .
“ Republicans and the administration got a lot of heat when they released their bill .

There ’ s some things in your bill that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , like they ’ re talking about cannabis or the SALT reduction .
Are those things that you ’ re willing to also strip out of the bill ?
” Pelosi responded by pushing pot like it was her job .
“ Well , I don ’ t agree with you that cannabis is not related to this , ” Pelosi said .
“ This is a therapy that has proven successful , and it is by no means of the caliber of money or misrepresentation that remodeling the federal building is for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hotel doesn ’ t come in there and compete with the president ’ s hotel .
“ That ’ s what that ’ s all about , ” she added .
“ That has nothing to do with the coronavirus .

During her weekly press conference on Friday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) defended the fact that the House has included cannabis in its coronavirus legislation, adding that marijuana “is a therapy that has proven successful” and is related to aiding COVID-19 patients.
One reporter asked Pelosi:
“Republicans and the administration got a lot of heat when they released their bill. Because there was a lot of unrelated things in there, including money for the FBI building, money for defense to replenish the wall. There’s some things in your bill that’s not directly related to COVID, like they’re talking about cannabis or the SALT reduction. Are those things that you’re willing to also strip out of the bill?”
Pelosi responded by pushing pot like it was her job.
“Well, I don’t agree with you that cannabis is not related to this,” Pelosi said. “This is a therapy that has proven successful, and it is by no means of the caliber of money or misrepresentation that remodeling the federal building is for over a billion dollars so that another hotel doesn’t come in there and compete with the president’s hotel. With the recent introduction of cannabis and hemp-derived CBD products on the market, millions of people have a natural way to relieve their pain and anxiety without having to rely on habit forming prescription pain medication, says Justin Cooke of Daily CBD.
“That’s what that’s all about,” she added. “That has nothing to do with the coronavirus. So, we’re going to have to come to some compromise on the legislation. I just don’t accept that there’s any equivalence in what you put forth there.”
The Democrat-led House’s coronavirus legislation, which was approved back in May, includes language supporting cannabis businesses and their providers, many of whom have stayed open throughout the coronavirus pandemic, according to The Hill.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) fired back at Pelosi by saying that her defense of marijuana was “incredibly irresponsible.”
“Pelosi just doubled down on her $3 trillion dollar cannabis legislation, falsely claiming that it’s a proven therapy for coronavirus. Hey Nancy, let’s focus on the pandemic. Not pot,” McCarthy tweeted.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-03--CNN’s April Ryan: I Can’t Wait For Trump To Be Pulled Out Of White House By Armed Forces

CNN contributor April Ryan claimed that if President Donald Trump lost the election , he would have to be pulled out of the White House by “ armed forces.
” April Ryan appeared on CNN ’ s “ Newsroom ” with Ana Cabrera , and discussed President Trump ’ s recent comments on potential rampant voter fraud due to mail-in voting and other Democrat tactics .
“ April , if the president is concerned about the security of this election , the integrity of this election , why aren ’ t they investing more to make sure it is secure @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
” Cabrera put to Ryan .
Ryan declared that the president was full of “ hypocrisy , ” because he has “ already used mail-in voting himself , and he wasn ’ t complaining then.
” Ryan argued that “ everyone can see what this president is about , ” which is that he is “ trying to create doubt , he is now trying to go along on the bandwagon of voter suppression , ” claiming that “ he never wanted to deal with [ it ] before.
” “ Police @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump Out Of White House “ Going back to the issue of January 20th , about the president not leaving — Maya Angelou said , ‘ if they show you who they are , believe them , ' ” Ryan continued .
“ The president has said before , in many tweets , that he wasn ’ t going , he said it months ago .
Joe Biden ’ s even acknowledged it .
And it ’ s real.
” “ So there ’ s going to be a split screen on January @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is now going to be the 46th president of the United States , you will have him being inaugurated and watching police and armed forces trying to pull Donald Trump out of the White House .
I can not wait for that split screen , ” Ryan concluded .
This is , of course , total nonsense .
If there is a free and fair election , there wouldn ’ t need to be some sort of coup against Trump – the president believes in democracy , and would absolutely accept the result @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , this is from April Ryan , who claimed that she was “ getting death threats , ” for asking Kayleigh McEnany a question at a press briefing !
Speaking of McEnany , she completely dismissed these ridiculous claims from Ryan and others last month .
“ It ’ s quite comical to watch the Democrat Party talk about not accepting the results of the election , ” McEnany said , “ because the only people who haven ’ t accepted the results of elections are people in the Democrat Party , like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her loss on , I think it was something like two dozen different entities , never blaming herself .
”

CNN contributor April Ryan claimed that if President Donald Trump lost the election, he would have to be pulled out of the White House by “armed forces.”
Ryan: The President Is A Hypocrite
April Ryan appeared on CNN’s “Newsroom” with Ana Cabrera, and discussed President Trump’s recent comments on potential rampant voter fraud due to mail-in voting and other Democrat tactics.
“April, if the president is concerned about the security of this election, the integrity of this election, why aren’t they investing more to make sure it is secure and can go forward without a hitch?” Cabrera put to Ryan.
Ryan declared that the president was full of “hypocrisy,” because he has “already used mail-in voting himself, and he wasn’t complaining then.” Ryan argued that “everyone can see what this president is about,” which is that he is “trying to create doubt, he is now trying to go along on the bandwagon of voter suppression,” claiming that “he never wanted to deal with [it] before.”
“Police And Armed Forces” Needed To Pull Trump Out Of White House
“Going back to the issue of January 20th, about the president not leaving — Maya Angelou said, ‘if they show you who they are, believe them,'” Ryan continued. “The president has said before, in many tweets, that he wasn’t going, he said it months ago. Joe Biden’s even acknowledged it. And it’s real.”

I cannot wait for that split screen,” Ryan concluded.
Total Nonsense!
This is, of course, total nonsense. If there is a free and fair election, there wouldn’t need to be some sort of coup against Trump. The president believes in democracy, and would absolutely accept the result of the election.
But then again, this is from April Ryan, who claimed that she was “getting death threats,” for asking Kayleigh McEnany a question at a press briefing!
Speaking of McEnany, she completely dismissed these ridiculous claims from Ryan and others last month.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-03--Trump Cracks Down On Federal Use Of Foreign Labor With Executive Order

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday that would stop federal agencies from firing US citizens in favor of foreign labor .
The executive order now bars the outsourcing of labour to foreign nations by federal agencies .
During the coronavirus pandemic , it is especially important to keep American workers employed , rather than shipping their jobs overseas .
It requires preferential treatment to be given to US residents and green card holders for any contract positions , putting them on par with full time roles .
A study will also be conducted to show just how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the federal government .
The executive order was partly prompted by the actions of the Tennessee Valley Authority , a federally owned corporation that provides flood control , electricity generation , and other such services to the Tennessee Valley .
The TVA fired 62 American IT workers in June in favor of outsourced labor .
President Trump labelled the actions of the TVA ’ s Chief Executive Officer , Jeff Lyash , as “ disastrous and heartless.
” He called on the board to remove Lyash , or face being fired themselves @ @ @ @ @ @ @ To Stop Illegal Immigrants From Being Counted In District Redrawing TVA Chair Skip Thompson and one other board member were also removed by the President , showing he is serious about his executive order .
The new TVA board members must hire a new CEO who “ puts the interests of Americans first.
” “ The new CEO must be paid no more than $ 500,000 a year , ” Trump said , after noting Lyash is paid over $ 8 million .
“ We want the TVA to take action on this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that this should “ serve as a warning to any federally appointed board : if you betray American workers , you will hear two words : ‘ you ’ re fired . '
” This is exactly what we needed to hear from President Trump – in these times of economic crisis , we simply can ’ t have federal jobs going to foreign labor , and not Americans who need them !

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday that would stop federal agencies from firing US citizens in favor of foreign labor.

The executive order now bars the outsourcing of labour to foreign nations by federal agencies. During the coronavirus pandemic, it is especially important to keep American workers employed, rather than shipping their jobs overseas.
It requires preferential treatment to be given to US residents and green card holders for any contract positions, putting them on par with full time roles. A study will also be conducted to show just how many foreign visa holders are currently employed by the federal government.

Trump: TVA’s Actions “Disastrous And Heartless”
The executive order was partly prompted by the actions of the Tennessee Valley Authority. TVA is a federally owned corporation that provides flood control, electricity generation, and other such services to the Tennessee Valley.
The TVA fired 62 American IT workers in June in favor of outsourced labor. President Trump labelled the actions of the TVA’s Chief Executive Officer, Jeff Lyash, as “disastrous and heartless.” He called on the board to remove Lyash, or face being fired themselves.

America First!
TVA Chair Skip Thompson and one other board member were also removed by the President, showing he is serious about his executive order. The new TVA board members must hire a new CEO who “puts the interests of Americans first.”
“The new CEO must be paid no more than $500,000 a year,” Trump said, after noting Lyash is paid over $8 million.
“We want the TVA to take action on this immediately,” he continued, adding that this should “serve as a warning to any federally appointed board: if you betray American workers, you will hear two words: ‘you’re fired.'”
This is exactly what we needed to hear from President Trump – in these times of economic crisis, we simply can’t have federal jobs going to foreign labor, and not Americans who need them!

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-03--The Fatigue Factor: Is America Tired Of Democrat Drama?

President Biden ?
It ’ s a sobering thought .
Not so much because Joe Biden is a wild-eyed loon .
But because he ’ s using loons to get elected and they will want payment if he pulls it off .
Slim chance , you say .
Really ?
Think again .
Yes , the polls are corrupted and contrived and the media is totally in the tank for the Democrats—as they always are .
And it is true , by any logical analysis , that by comparing track records and personalities , the president wins by a wide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and politics is sadly not about sensible anything…but more likely than not about illogical and senseless perception borne of a shallow relationship between the voter and the zeitgeist .
And we can all admit , the spirit of the times is not good .
Not since the late 1960s have we had this kind of constant drama of existential controversy .
Granted , all of it contrived by the Democrats and the media .
Even before the president took office he was supposedly a Russian pawn .
Then there was a special prosecutor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ riots .
Have the American people run out of patience with the consistent melodramatic brouhaha ?
Is there a fatigue factor setting in where a majority of voters in key battleground states are willing to tolerate a Biden presidency to end the never-ending kerfuffle ?
Because you know that ’ s the deal .
As soon as Biden would be elected , peace and tranquility would reign supreme .
A new golden age , for some people .
It ’ s almost like a tumultuous romantic relationship where you break up with someone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t handle the drama anymore .
Does the president have an effective defense against this ?

President Biden? It’s a sobering thought. Not so much because Joe Biden is a wild-eyed loon. But because he’s using loons to get elected and they will want payment if he pulls it off.
Slim chance, you say. Really? Think again.
Yes, the polls are corrupted and contrived and the media is totally in the tank for the Democrats—as they always are. And it is true, by any logical analysis, that by comparing track records and personalities, the president wins by a wide mile. But those are sensible perspectives and politics is sadly not about sensible anything…but more likely than not about illogical and senseless perception borne of a shallow relationship between the voter and the zeitgeist.
And we can all admit, the spirit of the times is not good. Not since the late 1960s have we had this kind of constant drama of existential controversy. Granted, all of it contrived by the Democrats and the media.
Even before the president took office he was supposedly a Russian pawn. Then there was a special prosecutor. Then impeachment. Now COVID-19 and riots. Have the American people run out of patience with the consistent melodramatic brouhaha? Is there a fatigue factor setting in where a majority of voters in key battleground states are willing to tolerate a Biden presidency to end the never-ending kerfuffle?
Because you know that’s the deal. As soon as Biden would be elected, peace and tranquility would reign supreme. A new golden age, for some people. It’s almost like a tumultuous romantic relationship where you break up with someone you really like because you just can’t handle the drama anymore.
Does the president have an effective defense against this? He should, and it would be law and order. In 1968, under somewhat similar circumstances, Richard Nixon used that theme to great advantage against Democrat Hubert Humphrey and was elected president. But the country is different than it was in the late 60s.
We’ve replaced generations tempered by depression, war, and prosperity with an easily swayed significant portion of the population composed of social media-driven voyeurs and a youth programmed to respond to basic PC stimuli like the most conditioned of Pavlov’s dogs.
Whither the republic? I don’t know. Honestly, I wish that I could, as I did (pre-COVID) confidently predict a Trump victory. There are still idiots out there doing that and by their clueless complacency making a Biden victory much more possible. You know the type. The ones that, despite all evidence to the contrary, actually said “Red Tsunami” in 2018 and meant it. Their confirmation bias does not help the cause.
So we stand on the precipice of the fall campaign season and all bets are off. We can win if the American people still have a modicum of sense. The Left will win if the same people throw in the towel and surrender to the false drama of manufactured negativity Democrats and the hard left have produced —and will continue to produce— until November.
Because it’s not really a Trumpian drama. It’s Democrat drama wrapped up with insincere bows and ribbons by the press to drop on the presidential doorstep. If the American people get that, we’re okay. If not, well, say hello to the 25th Amendment.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-03--Nancy Pelosi Trashes Dr. Deborah Birx As ‘Trump’s Appointee’ – Praises Dr. Fauci

It was inevitable .
The longtime bureaucrat and friend of the establishment high and mighty was going to come out on top with the DC powers that be over the attractive career army officer .
Washington loves its own like Fauci and has an inherent dislike of non-political professionals like Birx who would be , in their opinion , so crass as to join the U.S. Army and even make it a career .
So it was on Sunday when Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi went on one of the Sunday political talk shows and said this , “ I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disinformation about the virus and she is his — she is his appointee , ” Pelosi said to ABC .
“ So , I don ’ t have confidence there , no.
” Fauci is also the president ’ s appointee .
But , as usual , logic escapes Nancy .
A hit on the president and a follow up hit on Dr. Birx .
A classic baseless completely fabricated charge , like Russian collusion and Ukrainian hoaxes , from Pelosi and her minions .
The White House wasted no time in response @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Speaker Pelosi to repeatedly try to undermine & create public distrust in Dr Birx , the top public health professional on the coronavirus task force , ” Alyssa Farah , the White House ’ s director of strategic communications , said after the Pelosi blathering .
“ It ’ s also just wrong .
Period .
Hard stop , ” she added .
Alyssa Farah , of course , realizes that given how polarized the nation is right now her words are virtually silent to about half the voting public .
Nancy Pelosi @ @ @ @ @ @ @ skewering a top public health professional , while praising a serious political practitioner of the same specialty , and Democrats and their ilk raise themselves up on their haunches and applaud like slow-witted seals .

They have a $ 200 proposal , which does not meet the needs of America ’ s working families , ” Pelosi told the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s a condescension , quite frankly , because they ’ re saying , really don ’ t need it ; they ’ re just staying home because they make more money at $ 600.

“It’s also just wrong. Period. Hard stop,” she added.
Great response from Dr. Birx about Pelosi's baseless attacks. Pelosi could learn a thing or two from this.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-02--New York City Under Mayor Bill de Blasio: Hell For Churches

In several short years under Marxist Democrat Mayor Bill de Blasio , New York City has gone from a bustling prosperous metropolitan mecca to a filth-ridden crime-filled cesspool of anarchy and violence .
But , as New Yorkers voted Mayor de Blasio into office , they have only themselves to blame .
Here ’ s an odious part of the issue .
On Wednesday , New Yorkers were given more reason for self-reproach , as a small 100-member Presbyterian church in Hell ’ s Kitchen found their doorway strewn with used syringes and worse .
One wonders how many of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Bill de Blasio .
“ These people would come and crap all over the stairs !
” a church member exclaimed Wednesday .
“ I don ’ t open it up anymore , ” said another about the front entrance .
“ They were throwing syringes in there , smoking pot on the steps.
” “ Every day I ’ m fighting these guys .
I ’ ve had to put my foot in a few a**es !
” said the church super .
“ Right now I ’ m like a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like this here all the years I work here , ” said a church neighbor .
“ Last 15 years , never this bad .
It ’ s going down fast.
” “ They seem to be either selling drugs within the shelters , outside the shelters , and it ’ s causing a great deal of harassment , crime , you know , the neighborhood is feeling very unsafe for a lot of citizens , ” a homeless worker commented to the press .
“ I have seen so many drug deals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ told the press .
“ I don ’ t want those days to come back.
” Sorry pal , they ’ re back with a vengeance because your fellow New Yorkers brought them back .
As someone who has run homeless shelters in churches , I have some insight on this subject .
What is the old business axiom ?
“ Location , location , location… ” Same for homeless shelters .
You can not take people who may be trying to get their lives together while also dealing with addiction issues and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are available just outside the shelter doorstep .
It ’ s planning for failure .
The shelter then becomes a seller ’ s market and attracts drug dealers .
They in turn want to be close to their customer base and so take up residence in the neighborhood .
You can guess the consequences .
The church , as a spiritual center and a homeless shelter , is feeling the consequences now .
But , you ask , then where do you put these Dickensian refugees of de Blasio ’ s New York @ @ @ @ @ @ @ churches or spiritual centers of any stripe outside of urban climes are serious about their mission , they will step up to the plate .
I saw many churches pitch in and help in 2007 when I ran a homeless program in Salisbury , Maryland .
Churches in decent neighborhoods , churches in the burbs , large churches and small churches all worked together there to help the homeless through their travails .
But the streets of Salisbury are not ( thankfully for Salisbury ) the mean streets of New York City .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ realizes what kind of city government makes the homeless problem worse , New York will slide further down the drain and take churches with it .
And at that point , Gothamites will be past the time when only prayer will do .

On Wednesday, New Yorkers were given more reason for self-reproach, as a small 100-member Presbyterian church in Hell’s Kitchen found their doorway strewn with used syringes and worse. One wonders how many of the congregation of Trinity Presbyterian Church voted for Bill de Blasio.
“These people would come and crap all over the stairs!” a church member exclaimed Wednesday. “I don’t open it up anymore,” said another about the front entrance. “They were throwing syringes in there, smoking pot on the steps.”
“Every day I’m fighting these guys. I’ve had to put my foot in a few a**es!” said the church super. “Right now I’m like a security guard.”

“They seem to be either selling drugs within the shelters, outside the shelters, and it’s causing a great deal of harassment, crime, you know, the neighborhood is feeling very unsafe for a lot of citizens,” a homeless worker commented to the press.

Until somebody, like the voters, realizes what kind of city government makes the homeless problem worse, New York will slide further down the drain and take churches with it.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-08-02--Professor Of African American Lit At Auburn University Says ‘F*ck Every Single Cop’

Incoming professor Jesse Goldberg , who is set to teach “ African American & American Literature and Composition ” at Auburn University , just launched a truly vile attack on police on social media , where he wrote “ f*ck every single cop.
” Not stopping there , Goldberg went on to urge police officers to “ refuse to do their job and quit.
” “ F*ck every single cop .
Every single one , ” Goldberg tweeted on Wednesday , according to .
“ The only ethical choice for any cop to make at this point is to refuse @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ The police do not protect people .
They protect capital , ” he added .
“ They are instruments of violence on behalf of capital.
” Goldberg ’ s tweet has reportedly since been deleted , and his account has been switched to private .
His bio on the social media site describes him as : ” “ Lecturer @ Auburn U | Black Studies , Critical Prison Studies , Queer Theory , American Literature | Abolitionist | martial artist | views are mine | he/him/his.
” Goldberg ’ s Facebook page @ @ @ @ @ @ @ photo shows an image of a poem called “ Against the Police.
” “ ACAB .
Yes , all .
Police do not protect people .
They protect capital , ” the professor wrote on Facebook .
“ ACAB ” is an acronym that stands for “ all cops are bastards ” and widely used ( spray-painted on property ) by Antifa and BLM activists across the nation .
“ Cops are instruments of violence on behalf of capital , ” continued Goldberg .
“ Literally the only ethical decision for a cop @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do their job , to quit .
The only good cop is a cop who quits.
” Auburn University executive director of Public Affairs Brian Keeter has responded to this by saying that the school finds “ Goldberg ’ s comments inexcusable and completely counter to Auburn values.
” “ Hate speech of any kind is simply wrong .
Auburn is fully committed to the fundamental right of free speech , but we do not support hateful words or actions that degrade , disrespect or exclude , ” he continued .
“ Especially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , it ’ s vital that we reject crude stereotypes and work together to foster mutual understanding and respect within our communities.
” “ Auburn officials are considering options available to the university , ” Keeter concluded .
It ’ s terrifying that this is the type of person who is shaping the minds of the next generation .
Interested to see if this “ incoming ” professor will soon be outgoing for his hateful anti-police philosophies .
What do you think is fair and just in these circumstances ?
