FBI’ Rallies Across the Country –
This Time in Virginia replies
On Sunday there were “End the FBI” rallies across the nation. TGP reported on rallies from St. Louis to Long Island. Good Americans have had enough of the corruption and destruction of the US in DC. (Snip) We received more pictures and videos from across the nation. Below are some pictures and videos from Virginia. Below are some gentlemen with a “Fire Wray” sign. Of course, the FBI is corrupt beyond belief and the ultimate was watching the FBI raid the President’s property in Mar-a-Lago. Never before has the FBI been so brazen and so corrupt to do such a thing. Awful.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation and Department of Homeland Security have issued a new joint intelligence bulletin in the aftermath of the FBI’s raid at Mar-A-Lago on Monday and a reported attack at an FBI facility in Cincinatti, Ohio on Thursday.
“Today, the FBI and DHS issued a Joint Intelligence Bullet [sic] warning of ‘the potential for domestic violent extremists to carry out attacks…in reaction to the FBI’s recent execution of a court-authorized search warrant in Palm Beach, Florida,’ per internal memo I obtained,” reported Ken Klippenstein of The Intercept.
Supporters of former President Donald J. Trump have already faced demonization and persecution over their political beliefs but now that the regime has taken the gloves off after the storming of his South Florida home, a top House Democrat has issued a warning but Rep. Eric Swalwell received a quick and brutal reminder of the skeletons in his own closet.
One of the most consistently unhinged members of Congress, the California congressman teased a coming wave of government retribution against Trump supporters, suggesting that the boxes of documents that were hauled out of Mar-a-Lago will serve as the basis for the party’s most aggressive attack on the ex-POTUS yet
Does everyone realize that the often-repeated line from the anti-liberty left doesn't ever stand up to factual reality?
It's a construct primarily from the anti-liberty left side of the political spectrum. Like so many other lies from the left, it's been repeated so many times that people seem to accept it as the truth. But how many other aspects of popular culture have you seen that have been dead wrong? [snip]

Iran's state media has warned Donald Trump and Mike Pompeo that they are next in line, following the stabbing on Friday of Sir Salman Rushdie.
The Kayhan newspaper, whose editor is personally chosen by Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, declared in a front page story published on Sunday that after Rushdie 'it is now the turn of Trump and Pompeo'.
The editorial stated, according to The Daily Telegraph: 'God has taken his revenge on Rushdie. The attack on him shows it is not a difficult job to take similar revenge on Trump and Pompeo and from now on they will feel more in danger for their lives.'
A 'beloved' cancer survivor, mother-to-be and a 22-year-old on a birthright trip to Israel have been named among the American victims of a terrorist attack in Jerusalem on Saturday night.
In total, eight people were wounded in the shooting that happened near David's Tomb on Mount Zion, just outside the Old City walls. Five of the victims are American.
The gunman, named as East Jerusalem resident Amir Sidawi, opened fire at two locations around 6:30 pm Eastern time. First, he struck a bus that was waiting at a parking lot, shortly afterwards, he fired at a crowd close to the bus.
This time, it is mega-floods in California replacing mega-droughts, and again they are supposedly caused by us and fossil fuels. Not once do journalists give a damn that their previous dire predictions have been 100% false.
To the compliant, complicit media, and other Democrats, floods, droughts, too much snow, too little snow, record cold, record warmth are all caused by us, instead of cyclical and natural. The solution is always bigger government and more control of our lives. It is arrogant and ignorant for anyone to pretend they can control temperatures, sea levels, and storm activities if we just hand over trillions of dollars
Former President Donald Trump sent a message to Attorney General Merrick Garland shortly before Garland’s Thursday comments about the raid on Trump’s estate in the Mar-a-Lago community in South Florida, according to a new report. (snip) “The country is on fire,” Trump told Garland, in a message passed along by “a person close to Mr. Trump,” according to the Times. “What can I do to reduce the heat?”
If a reply was made, the Times did not report upon it.
Jill Biden hit the shops on Kiawah Island Sunday afternoon with her granddaughter Finnegan Biden and daughter-in-law Melissa Cohen.
Images of the first lady shopping with Hunter Biden's wife and daughter were obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com.
Members of the first family spent about 30 minutes in Freshfields Village, which is a small shopping center on the island off the South Carolina coast. They spent time in Indigo Books, an independent bookstore; Holly & Brooks, a fashion store; Las Olas, a swimware store; and Tina Stephens, which describes itself as a place for travel-friendly lifestyle wear. Jill was wearing an off-the-shoulder light blue and white striped dress,
House GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania revealed Sunday that he was told his life was 'in danger' amid fallout from the FBI's unannounced search of Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort.
Fitzpatrick, a former FBI agent himself, told CBS News' Face The Nation he was threatened by 'some of the same people' who are heaping verbal attacks against federal law enforcement in the wake of the raid.
He also urged lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to 'reserve judgment and not get ahead of yourself' on whether the documents seized by federal officers from Mar-a-Lago meant Trump was guilty of any crimes.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) allegedly took materials that contained privileged attorney-client communications in its raid last Monday on former President Donald Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago, Florida.
The claim, reported by Fox News, raises new questions about the DOJ’s tactics, as well as doubts about whether the DOJ would be able to use any of the seized materials in a hypothetical prosecution of the former president.
The DOJ is apparently opposing the appointment of a “special master,” a judicial official who would conduct an independent review and decide which materials could be handed over to the government and which materials
Depending on who you ask, Donald Trump is either in the clear following the FBI raid on his Florida home or he’s headed to the gallows. That should tell you how out of control the story has gotten, with the hysteria fed by numerous anonymously sourced leaks to a salivating press.
The revelation that Trump is being investigated under the Esponianage Act set leftwing hearts aflutter with wild speculation that the former president is a foreign agent for either Saudi Arabia or that old standby, Russia. No matter that Hillary Clinton was also investigated under that provision after which then-FBI Dir. James Comey pronounced no reasonable prosecutor would charge her.
Joe Biden’s incompetent Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm on Sunday appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” to discuss the Bidenflation scam that just passed through both chambers of Congress.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre appeared on ABC News Sunday morning and things didn’t go quite as she had planned. Long used to the kid glove treatment because she’s so intersectional, Jean-Pierre ended up facing some unexpectedly tough questions from Jonathan Karl, a leftwing hack in his own right.
At one point, Karl pressed Jean-Pierre on continuing to claim the faux-named “Inflation Reduction Act” will help lower inflation, asking if the White House’s messaging is “Orwellian.” The press secretary quickly put on her dancing shoes and gyrated around in an attempt to deflect.
The mayor of McAllen, Texas, is bewildered. Javier Villalobos is on the front lines of Joe Biden’s border crisis and McAllen, along with other small and medium-sized Texas cities, has been overwhelmed with illegal aliens looking to get into the United States. Villalobos has been following the story of a few thousand illegals being bused north to New York City and Washington, D.C., and the reaction from Democratic politicians in those cities. He can’t understand what their complaints are all about.
“You see New York, you see Washington kind of drowning with a few buses,” Villalobos told Fox News. “We used to get over a thousand-something people a day.”
The overwhelming majority of Americans say they have been impacted by inflation, a poll from The Economist/YouGov found.
The survey asked, “How much have you felt the impact of this high inflation in your own life?”
The vast majority, 95 percent, said it has affected them at least a little, but of those, 56 percent said inflation has impacted them “a lot.”
There is a consensus across the board, as 98 percent of Republicans, 95 percent of independents, and 94 percent of Democrats say inflation has impacted them at least “a little.”
The survey was taken August 7-9 among 1,500 United States adult citizens and coincides with the latest report
I was chatting with a politically mature friend today who, in the course of some delighted words about Attorney General Merrick Garland, reminded me that in his famous “evil empire” speech of 1983, Ronald Reagan quoted a few choice lines from the preface of C. S. Lewis’ Screwtape Letters. “The greatest evil,” Lewis wrote, is not now done in any Dickensian “dens of iniquity” or even in “concentration camps and labor camps.” (snip) The reason, by the way, my friend’s words about Merrick Garland were “delighted” was because of the huge, if inadvertent, boost the attorney general has just given to Donald Trump’s political prospects.

San Francisco—What takes four years to make and costs more than $20,000? A trash can in San Francisco. That costly, boxy bin is among six trash cans hitting San Francisco’s streets this summer in the city’s long saga in search of the perfect can. Overflowing trash cans are a common sight in the Northern California city, along with piles of used clothes, shoes, furniture and other items strewn about on sometimes-impassable sidewalks.(Snip)Officials say the current bins have too big a hole that allows for easy rummaging. The bins also have hinges that need constant repair and locks that are easy to breach. Some people also topple them
Neil Oliver returns from a vacation to deliver one of his best contemplative monologues to date. Mr. Oliver rightly says that if you reset your historic reference points, and you begin to recognize that thinking the unthinkable is actually the best reference point for your current state, it is like a key that unlocks the answers.
Liz Cheney is facing an awkward challenge. A few days from now, she will deliver the most consequential speech of her career to date. The polls indicate it will almost certainly be a concession speech.
Rhetorically, the assignment is clear: Accept defeat while sounding like a winner. More specifically, Cheney needs to signal that the loss of her Wyoming House seat in a GOP primary is in no way the end of her career, but the opening of a new phase in which she intends to be one of the most important people in American political life.
Former President Donald Trump's niece, Mary Trump, has suggested his son-in-law Jared Kushner could be the mole in the Trump camp who tipped off the FBI about confidential documents that were being held at Mar-a-Lago. Monday's raid was approved by Attorney General Merrick Garland, but it's believed a confidential source first gave information to federal authorities. Speaking with SiriusXM host Dean Obeidallah, Mary Trump was asked if she had any idea who the suspect might be.(Snip)'It sounds like somebody in Jared's position. I'm not saying it's Jared, but. It could be,' Trump said with a smile. The $2 billion Mary Trump was referring to

Former White House official Kash Patel on Sunday revealed former President Donald Trump has been involved in a battle with the federal government to declassify documents before last week’s FBI raid.

“President Trump made me his representative a month ago, and we’ve been in a bureaucratic battle,” (snip). “We found whole sets of documents we got out to the American public … about 60 percent.”Patel,(snip)added that Trump “made it his mission to declassify and be transparent.”

Swedish academics have denounced a proposal by a government minister to limit the number of non-Scandinavian residents in neighbourhoods as “state racism.” Ten academics largely comprised of professors from various Swedish universities slammed the proposal made by Minister for Integration Anders Ygeman, who said he would support a policy to limit the number of non-Scandinavian or “non-Nordic” residents in areas so they did not become a majority. “The proposal is difficult to take seriously, but at the same time frightening. It brings to mind the apartheid system and state racism that would cement and legitimise ethnic divisions instead of fighting them,” the experts said
The FBI search warrant authorizing a government raid of former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence sought an exhaustive list of any White House records the president ever came in contact with, according to the document obtained by The Federalist.
Outlining the “property to be seized” by the more than 30 agents who rummaged through the former president’s Mar-a-Lago mansion, the warrant demanded confiscation of any document Trump ever saw, read, or created for the entirety of his four years as commander-in-chief.

In other words, had Trump written something down on a napkin, federal officials were authorized to raid the former president’s home and capture it.
A Chicago cab driver accused of kidnapping a woman and sexually assaulting her has pleaded guilty in exchange for probation, according to a report published on Friday. The CWB Chicago article said prosecutors dropped several Class X felony charges in the deal made with the man, whose name is Tarek Masri.(Snip)Authorities arrested Masri in 2018, thanks to DNA findings in the assault, which reportedly took place a few years before, according to the outlet:
Early on June 13, 2015, the then-23-year-old victim went out with friends to celebrate her passing the Certified Public Accountant exam, prosecutors said during Masri’s initial bail hearing.
The FBI seized boxes containing records covered by attorney-client privilege and potentially executive privilege during its raid of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, sources familiar with the investigation told Fox News, adding that the Justice Department opposed Trump lawyers’ request for the appointment of an independent, special master to review the records.
Sources familiar with the investigation told Fox News Saturday that the former president’s team was informed that boxes labeled A-14, A-26, A-43, A-13, A-33, and a set of documents—all seen on the final page of the FBI’s property receipt —contained information covered by attorney-client privilege.

Reserved, studious and precise, Merrick Garland appears to be an attorney general selected by central casting. Unfortunately, the part he is playing belongs to another era, one where the government was widely trusted.
After orchestrating one of the biggest events in the history of the Department of Justice, Garland proved himself too small for the moment. Whether he volunteered or was pushed into authorizing the unprecedented FBI raid on the home of former President Donald Trump, he was woefully unprepared for the entirely predictable fallout. It should not have been a surprise to him that about half the country believes the raid was motivated by politics.
David French and the rest of the gang cheered the FBI's raid of Mar-a-Lago. They also convinced themselves that pleading the Fifth Amendment to every question asked in a deposition is proof of guilt. Just what the crime is will be determined later.
We have kicked these buffoons around for 6 years, but we have never really examined the sacrifices made to be a Never Trumper.

Boston Children’s Hospital is facing backlash over a video they created that appears to be promoting “gender affirming hysterectomies” for “transgender” children.
The video, featuring Dr. Frances Grimstad, an obstetrician-gynecologist, went viral after being posted by the popular Libs of TikTok Twitter account.
“A gender-affirming hysterectomy is very similar to most hysterectomies that occur,” Grimstad cheerfully stated. “A hysterectomy itself is the removal of the uterus, the cervix,
Hunter Biden met with his father multiple times while working for a Romanian real estate tycoon accused of corruption—an effort that netted Joe Biden’s second son and associates “millions” of dollars, a source close to the arrangement told The Post.

Former President Donald Trump on Sunday called for the Justice Department to return the reams of documents FBI agents seized at his Mar-a-Lago resort last week, pointing to a report that said the information was covered by attorney-client or executive privilege.
“Oh great! It has just been learned that the FBI, in its now famous raid of Mar-a-Lago, took boxes of privileged ‘attorney-client’ material, and also ‘executive’ privileged material, which they knowingly should not have taken,” Trump said on his Truth Social site.
“By copy of this TRUTH, I respectfully request that these documents be immediately returned to the location from which they were taken.
The Walt Disney Co. is doubling down on woke gender politics in its upcoming Marvel series Ironheart. The studio has cast transgender “non-binary” actress Zoe Terakes in a key supporting role just days after the show also cast drag queen Shea Couleé, an alumnus of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Terakes, who hails from Australia, was born female but identifies as “non-binary” and “trans masculine.”

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) intends to investigate the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s raid of Mar-a-Lago if Republicans take back the Senate this fall, he told Breitbart News. Grassley, the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, appeared on Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Saturday and shined a light on a number of angles on the raid of former President Donald J. Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence. Grassley first asserted there is an FBI “double standard” concerning Trump in contrast to other political figures, including former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden. “I look at it in a larger context…
Hillary Clinton has insinuated in a new book by an NBC News reporter that she believes her former 2016 Democratic primary rival Bernie Sanders is a sexist, remarking 'I know the kind of things that he says about women and to women.' Clinton made the remarks to NBC News Capitol Hill correspondent Ali Vitali in her new book 'Electable: Why America Hasn’t Put a Woman In the White House… Yet.'
In an excerpt published by Politico on Friday, the journalist recalls Clinton's comments that followed a widely televised heated clash between Sanders and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who were both on the ballot for the 2020 presidential election.

Taipei, Taiwan — A delegation of American lawmakers arrived in Taiwan on Sunday, just 12 days after a visit by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that prompted an angry China to launch days of threatening military drills around the self-governing island that Beijing says must come under its control.

Ed Markey of Massachusetts, will meet President Tsai Ing-wen and other officials to discuss U.S.-Taiwan relations, regional security, trade, investment and other issues, the American Institute in Taiwan said.

For those of us who have never been behind bars, one of the more fascinating aspects of prison life is the convicts’ code of moral conduct. They have their own internal justice system, according to scores of accounts, and the standards they apply seem to be fairly consistent across all jurisdictions. Whether you’re a federal, state, or local prisoner, there are certain crimes which are tolerated by other inmates, some that are even celebrated, but there are others that are completely taboo. And if you’re one who’s been convicted of an off-limits crime, you could have a big problem.
A third of the way into his article, “Afghanistan Did Not Have to Turn Out This Way”, David Petraeus, former head of Central Command, who led forces in both Afghanistan and Iraq, and then headed the CIA, admits the war was never going to end.
“Some senior officials, including me, had cautioned that we would not be able to do in Afghanistan what we had done in Iraq—that though we might be able to drive violence down, we would not be able to ‘flip’ the country, as we had during the surge in Iraq, and provide it a whole new beginning,” he writes.

The Death of Catholic Ireland
replies
Ireland was once famous for dispatching Catholic missionaries to pagan lands. But now an increasingly secularized Ireland needs missionaries sent to it. The once-pious island has gone from saving civilization to losing it, plunging into a hedonistic culture that promotes “abortion rights” and the sexual revolution.
The repulsive New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd recently chortled that “Ireland and the United States have traded places.” In the past, she said, the Irish went to America for abortions. Now Americans after the collapse of Roe v. Wade will go to Ireland for them. Dowd sees this as great progress: “Ireland leaped into modernity, rejecting religious reactionaries’ insistence on controlling women’s bodies.

The Mar-a-Lago Wave
replies
For most of 2022, Democratic voters have been more ambivalent about participating in the fall midterms than their Republican counterparts. According to conventional Beltway wisdom, however, that enthusiasm gap has been narrowed by the recent Roe v. Wade ruling and the Jan. 6 hearings. It’s probable, though, that last Monday’s FBI raid on former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate will reestablish the Republican advantage. This unprecedented action will likely energize GOP voters and drown any increase in Democratic enthusiasm beneath a red tsunami. The first poll to measure public response to the raid indicates that it has galvanized Republicans and Independents.
Washington(AP) — Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, the Arizona Democrat who single-handedly thwarted her party’s longtime goal of raising taxes on wealthy investors, received nearly $1 million over the past year from private equity professionals, hedge fund managers and venture capitalists whose taxes would have increased under the plan. (Snip) The donations, which make Sinema one of the industry’s top beneficiaries in Congress, serve a reminder of the way that high-power lobbying campaigns can have dramatic implications for the way legislation is crafted, particularly in the evenly divided Senate where there are no Democratic votes to spare.

There’s been a lot of talk about classified documents regarding the FBI raid on President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home.
Trump himself talked about declassifying documents and there is a report about a “standing order” to declassify documents he had over documents that he was reviewing. But there’s an important thing to note that the criminal statutes alleged in the warrant go right around that — that it isn’t about whether the documents are classified or not. It’s a way of trying to get Trump on something while jacking up the left by screaming “classified” or “nuclear.” But those aren’t the critical questions in the underlying statutes. Indeed, there’s been no evidence
As we’ve reported, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) is in deep trouble in her primary on August 16. She’s 30 points behind her Trump-endorsed challenger, Harriet Hageman. She’s about to get wiped out by historic proportions, by all accounts.
But she does have some Democrats coming out trying to cover her action. She just got an endorsement that’s sure to put her over the top now — disgraced former Democratic senator Al Franken. [Tweet]
I’ll leave the door open to the possibility that this is an attempt at comedy since that’s what Franken is allegedly doing now, since the groping scandal and leaving the Senate.
