thepoliticalinsider--2020-12-23--Conservative Leaders Want Republicans To Demand Joe Biden’s Bank Records

In an open letter to Republican members of Congress on Monday , conservative leaders called for Joe Biden to release his banking records to make sure he has no involvement in his son Hunter Biden ’ s foreign business dealings .
The leaders and presidents of right-leaning groups such as Frontiers of Freedom , Americans for Limited Government , Institute for Liberty , Project 21 , and others want Republicans to treat President-elect Joe Biden just as aggressively as House Democrats have been with President Donald Trump .
The letter reads , “ Joe Biden has said he wants to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ If he is serious about that , he must understand the value of removing any reasonable doubt about whether he was selling American foreign policy to the Chinese and other foreign interests.
” “ It is worth noting that the attempt by the Democrat House to hound President Trump for his tax returns has gone on even though there is no evidence he did anything wrong and even though he has filed every financial disclosure required by law , ” the letter read .
“ They ’ ve basically admitted that it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ continued .
“ But the questions about Joe Biden ’ s and his family ’ s newly acquired wealth are not simply a fishing expedition.
” “ There is ample proof to make the questions well founded and worthy of immediate answers , ” the letter insisted .
The conservatives who signed the letter then demanded Team Biden put this issue behind them by issuing two options .
The first option : “ So the question is — will the Biden-Harris team put this issue behind them and establish that neither Hunter , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were using Joe Biden ’ s high public office to gain millions in political influence peddling with foreign interests including some of America ’ s most dangerous adversaries.
” And number two : “ Or alternatively , will Chairman [ Richard ] Neal [ ( D-MA ) ] and the Ways and Means Committee look into this matter with the same vigor that they ’ ve exhibited for their tax return fishing expedition ?

It was revealed that Hunter Biden has been under investigation for “ tax affairs ” since 2018 .

In this interview , he slammed Republicans and Democrats alike for bankrupting the United States with outrageous spending .
He added that the only way we have a chance of recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic financially is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people get back to work .
“ The bottom line is the only way we recover this economy is we ’ ve got to open the economy up , ” Paul said .
“ Unemployment is actually lower than it was during most of President Obama ’ s term , so we really can recover .

On Tuesday, Senator Rand Paul released his annual Festivus report, which exposed the $54 billion that he characterized as “truly outlandish waste in government.”
Paul Blasts Overspending
The next day, Paul was interviewed by Fox News about his opposition to $2.3 trillion omnibus spending bill, something he had slammed his Republican colleagues for voting in favor of.
In this interview, he slammed Republicans and Democrats alike for bankrupting the United States with outrageous spending. He added that the only way we have a chance of recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic financially is if we open the economy and let people get back to work.
“The bottom line is the only way we recover this economy is we’ve got to open the economy up,” Paul said. “Unemployment is actually lower than it was during most of President Obama’s term, so we really can recover. But we’ve got to get these governors out of the way of our restaurants and our bars and our venues. We’ve got to get the economy opened up, it’s the only way we survive this.”

Paul Doubles Down
The Kentucky senator was then asked if he would support the coronavirus stimulus package if the spending he considers to be wasteful was removed.
“These jokers never replace spending,” Paul fired back. .”They’ll never do the responsible thing and exchange wasteful spending for useful spending.”
“The thing is you need better people,” he added. “There was only six or seven of us who opposed this smorgasbord debt, but if you ask the American people should we spend money we don’t have? Should we run a balanced budget? I’ll bet you 75% of Republicans will tell you they’d rather have conservatives in Washington.”

“The people in Washington run as conservatives. Like, when President Obama was in power they said it was terrible, the spending and the debt and all this. And now they’re no better,” the fed-up Paul continued. “That bill yesterday was a bunch of socialist spending, and if you voted for it you’re no better than the Democrats. And so that’s the problem we have, people need to get involved in primaries and elect better people.”

Former First Lady Michelle Obama took to Instagram on Tuesday to praise the Black Lives Matter movement as she reflected on 2020 .
“ We ’ ve endured so much this past year , from the devastation of the pandemic to the ups and downs of a hard-won election , ” Michelle wrote in her post .

In her post , Michelle highlighted the story of Patrick Hutchinson , a black man who became a viral sensation earlier his year after he was caught on camera carrying a white protester to safety during a demonstration in London .
Michelle explained that she chose to highlight Hutchinson because it ’ s difficult for her “ to see so many people distort the unity and righteousness of these protests.
” “ They ’ ve been sowing seeds of division , misrepresenting those crying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The truth is the millions around the world who showed up with their homemade signs were marching with the same kind of compassion that Mr. Hutchinson shows here , ” she wrote .
“ They ’ re folks who face discrimination on a daily basis because of the color of their skin .
And they ’ re just asking to be shown the same level of humanity that our consciences demand we show anyone else in need , ” she added .

The Black Lives Matter protests that Michelle is referring to spread all over the country like wildfire in the wake of the death of George Floyd back in May.

Michelle’s Reasoning For Picking Hutchinson
Michelle explained that she chose to highlight Hutchinson because it’s difficult for her “to see so many people distort the unity and righteousness of these protests.”
“They’ve been sowing seeds of division, misrepresenting those crying out for justice as troublemakers or criminals. The truth is the millions around the world who showed up with their homemade signs were marching with the same kind of compassion that Mr. Hutchinson shows here,” she wrote.
“They’re folks who face discrimination on a daily basis because of the color of their skin. And they’re just asking to be shown the same level of humanity that our consciences demand we show anyone else in need,” she added.
Michelle is conveniently ignoring the fact that many times, these so-called “peaceful” Black Lives Matter protests really did devolve into violence and looting, but I digress.

Because as the COVID-19 crisis has made clear, our fates are inextricably bound. If the least of us struggles, we all in some way feel that pain,” Michelle added.
In 2021, Michelle is hoping that people will “reach out to understand the experiences of those who don’t look, or vote, or think like we do.”

In the radically liberal entertainment industry , it ’ s rare to find anyone that is brave enough to actually speak out against the Black Lives Matter organization .
That ’ s why it came as a surprise on Sunday when the rocker Ted Nugent spoke out to do just that !
While appearing on Sinclair ’ s “ America This Week , ” Nugent ripped into people who kneel during the national anthem or protest with the Black Lives Matter movement , saying that they are “ soulless ” and “ stupid.
” “ I love hearing the Star-Spangled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ Let ’ s talk a little bit about what ’ s going on in the country … You see them kneeling when as the song is being played , you see them disrespecting the flag that is on my chest and probably on your arm .

” Referring to the “ hands up , don ’ t shoot ” slogan that Black Lives Matter has adopted , Nugent said : “ I identify those people as being real soulless , real stupid .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ they ’ re doing .
I mean , they claim that somebody ’ s hands were up , and they got shot .
That ’ s a lie .
I know the situation .
I ’ ve studied those situations , and nobody ’ s hands were up , and nobody got shot .
So the entire premise of that so-called protest is based on a lie.
” “ And they can ’ t be that stupid .

“ They ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ see someone disrespecting our flag , um , they don ’ t deserve any respect themselves , and they should be ashamed of themselves.

Earlier in this same interview , Nugent attacked Joe Biden and other Democrats for “ glaring criminality and abuse of power and marxism.

Nugent Attacks Black Lives Matter
While appearing on Sinclair’s “America This Week,” Nugent ripped into people who kneel during the national anthem or protest with the Black Lives Matter movement, saying that they are “soulless” and “stupid.”

What does that do to Ted Nugent?”
Referring to the “hands up, don’t shoot” slogan that Black Lives Matter has adopted, Nugent said:

“Mr. Slatten, Mr. Slough, Mr. Liberty, and Mr. Heard have a long history of service to the Nation. Mr. Slatten was inspired to serve his country after the attacks of September 11, 2001, and served two tours in Iraq with the 82nd Airborne Division,” the White House said in a statement.
“Mr. Slough served in the United States Army and deployed to Iraq with his National Guard unit. Mr. Liberty served in the United States Marine Corps and protected United States Embassies abroad. Mr. Heard served in the United States Marine Corps during Operation Iraqi Freedom,” the statement added.

When the convoy attempted to establish a blockade outside the “Green Zone,” the situation turned violent, which resulted in the unfortunate deaths and injuries of Iraqi civilians. Initial charges against the men were dismissed, but they were eventually tried and convicted on charges ranging from first degree murder to voluntary manslaughter. On appeal, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that additional evidence should have been presented at Mr. Slatten’s trial. Further, prosecutors recently disclosed—more than 10 years after the incident—that the lead Iraqi investigator, who prosecutors relied heavily on to verify that there were no insurgent victims and to collect evidence, may have had ties to insurgent groups himself.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-12-27--George Clooney Blasts Trump – Calls Him A ‘Charismatic Carnival Barker’

The radically liberal Hollywood star George Clooney attacked president Donald Trump once again this week , this time referring to him as a “ charismatic carnival barker.
” In an interview with the New York Times , Clooney said that he believes that any effort Joe Biden makes to reach across the aisle and work with Republicans will fall apart .
He added that many Republicans in the Senate will never work with Biden because they want to be president themselves .
“ Every single one of these guys have aspirations for bigger things — Marco Rubio , Ted Cruz @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” Clooney said .
“ They think people will travel with them because , ‘ I ’ ve stuck with you , Don , ’ but the truth is , they won ’ t .
They stay with Donald because Donald , for all of his immense problems as a human being , is a charismatic carnival barker.
” The interview devolved from there into an all-out assault on Trump , with Clooney blaming him for refusing to support a coronavirus mask mandate .
“ The idea that we politicize things like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ignoring the fact that the left also shamelessly politicized COVID-19 .
“ Had Trump come out at the very beginning and said , ‘ We ’ re all going to wear masks because it ’ s the right thing to do and it ’ s going to save a lot of lives , ’ the whole country would have gotten behind him , and he would have been re-elected .
But he thought it would affect his economy , so he chose to say it didn ’ t exist .
And now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people dead.
” Thankfully , Clooney went on to deny that he has any interest in running for political office himself .
“ That ’ d be fun , wouldn ’ t it ?
Gee , what a great way to spend the last third of my life , trying to make deals with people that have no intention of making deals , ” he said .
This comes weeks after Clooney said that he sees hope on the horizon once Donald Trump is “ out of office.
” “ Well , now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s more than hope , ” Clooney told The Hollywood Reporter .
“ There is a bright light at the end of this tunnel .
We will soon say goodbye to the dark ages .
Goodbye to fear .
Goodbye to doubt .
Goodbye to the anxiety.
” “ Once this is over and Trump ’ s out of office , we should probably do something about COVID , too , ” he added .
“ That would be important .

“Every single one of these guys have aspirations for bigger things — Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Mike Pence, all of them,” Clooney said. “They think people will travel with them because, ‘I’ve stuck with you, Don,’ but the truth is, they won’t.

Kamala Harris took to social media over the weekend to post a video celebrating the holiday of Kwanza , but it did not take long for this to blow up in her face , as she was slammed for shameless political pandering .
In her video , Harris claimed that she grew up celebrating Kwanzaa , and that “ multiple generations ” of her family also celebrated the African holiday that was first celebrated in 1966 .
Here ’ s what she had to say : “ You know , my sister and I , we grew up celebrating Kwanzaa @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our extended family , we would gather around , across multiple generations , and we ’ d tell stories .
The kids would sit on the carpet and the elders would sit on chairs , and we would light the candles , and of course afterwards have a beautiful meal .
And , of course , there was always the discussion of the seven principles .
And my favorite , I have to tell you , was always the one about self-determination , kujichagulia.
” “ And , you know , essentially it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Be the person you want to be and do the things you want to do and do the things that need to be done .
It ’ s about not letting anyone write our future for us , but instead going out and writing it for ourselves .
And that principle motivates me today , as we seek to confront the challenges facing our country and to build a brighter future for all Americans .
So , to everyone who is celebrating , Happy Kwanzaa from our family to yours.
” Related : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Communism Two Days Prior To The Election This immediately backfired on her when social media users roasted the video , accusing Harris of blatant political pandering .
“ Might be the most epic pandering I ’ ve ever seen from a politician , ” one user commented , with another adding , “ Somehow I find it hard to believe that she has a deep childhood attachment to a holiday that didn ’ t exist when she was born.
” “ [ T ] his is such an obvious lie .
She was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-12-28--Congress, Journalists Rank Among Worst Professions For Honesty And Ethics According To Survey

A new Gallup poll asking Americans to rank the honesty and ethics of different professions placed journalists and members of Congress low amongst groups such as car salesmen .
Congressional members actually tied car salespeople with a mere 8 percent rating them highly , with advertising practitioners coming it slightly better at 10 percent .
Rounding out low-ranking groups were business executives at 17 percent , lawyers at 21 percent , and journalists at 28 percent .

And why not really ?
They had a banner year .
A banner year that started with congress focusing almost exclusively on the impeachment of President Trump rather than the coronavirus , which had found its way to America in January .
That was followed up by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ignoring President Trump who had vowed in his State of the Union Address to “ take all necessary steps ” to protect @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Pelosi was too preoccupied with her plan to showboat by tearing up her copy of the address rather than worry about the pandemic .

She would go on to blame Trump solely for the deaths of Americans at the hands of COVID .
