Pelosi's Tweet Reveals the Real Intentions
Behind Trump’s Indictment
Posted By: Magnante, 4/1/2023 4:49:30 AM
The reaction to the unprecedented indictment of President Trump was predictable. (snip) Pelosi wrote: “No one is above the law, and everyone has the right to a trial to prove innocence.” This is nothing short of a shocking statement, especially from a lawmaker with many decades of experience. The presumption of innocence is the standard in any civilized democracy (snip) It is unlikely that Pelosi isn’t aware of the legal standards in the U.S. Perhaps her feeling of schadenfreude got the better of her, or maybe this is a warning for others who support the MAGA agenda.

My assessment of the probability of Donald Trump receiving a fair trial on the highly questionable charges (falsifying business records) brought against him by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg just plummeted to subterranean levels. The judge in the case just metaphorically peed on Trump’s leg and told him it was raining, to employ a venerable and colorful American expression. He issued a gag order and specified that he was not issuing a gag order and violated Trump’s First Amendment rights while claiming he didn’t violate his First Amendment rights. The technical name, albeit a less flamboyant one than the metaphor of micturition, is dissimulation.
President Trump enthusiastically touts his support of the Right to Try law, passed in May, 2018. Ironically, it may benefit one of his main political adversaries.
In what is a glorious development for elders and their caregivers, Eli Lilly’s Alzheimer’s treatment donanemab slowed the disease’s progression in a pivotal phase 3 trial.
A monthly antibody infusion reduced brain plaque associated with Alzheimer’s. In fact, patients in the trial demonstrated a 35% slower decline in memory.
As pointed out by Barrons’ Josh Nathan-Kazis, the drug’s efficacy marks, “an extraordinary moment in the decades-long struggle to find treatments for Alzheimer’s.”
Having missed the trial itself, Biden is a strong candidate
E. Jean Carroll's Trump-bashing
14 replies
According to the May 2 New York Times, on the last day of her testimony in her civil suit against Donald J. Trump alleging rape, E. Jean Carroll insisted that she was fired as advice columnist for Elle because President Trump called her a liar, not because she gave an excerpt of her book to rival New York magazine. This question immediately came to mind: would a New York City-based editor dismiss a columnist because Trump called her a liar?
That question was answered by this follow-up question: In media circles, isn't criticism from Pres. Trump considered a badge of honor?
Someday, if America is saved, there may be a museum to memorialize the Covid dead. There will be a wing for those killed by the disease who died at home after being refused early treatment. There will be a wing for those who died of the vaccine and another for those who died from the lockdowns. And, surely, one wing will be dedicated to those who died in hospitals due to deadly protocols. (snip) If the hospitals were indeed crime scenes, then we must look for the criminals’ motive. (snip) a classic crime motive: money. The federal government paid hospitals lavish bonuses to enforce a specific deadly protocol.
A scorched earth campaign against Tucker Carlson has been anticipated, and the first leak of behind-the-scenes video has dropped, fed to Soros-funded Media Matters, which long has been trying to get both Carlson and Fox News silenced.
Someone with access to the video feed from Tucker Carlson’s home studios has leaked a video that they must have expected to be damaging to the former top-rated host, but which really damages the streaming video service, Fox Nation. If Carlson is to be blamed, it would be for being frank and honest in a private conversation.
Just yesterday was saw more proof that the mainstream media in the U.S. and beyond are P.R. agencies for the Democrats.
The media gave great prominence to former president Obama, filmmaker Steven Spielberg, and rock star Bruce Springsteen making a surprise appearance at a Barcelona restaurant with a last-minute dinner reservation on Thursday.
The BBC carried details about the restaurateur being surprised by the visit and what he served his guests (snip) Most articles mentioned restaurant staff member Pol Perello posting a photo on Instagram of the staff and chefs posing with the celebrity trio. (snip) Let's subject Obama’s friends to the diversity criteria
Watch Fox News Slide As Tucker Carlson Rises

With their decision to take Tucker Carlson’s show off the air, Fox News’s Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch have failed to account for media and political dynamics that have, over a period of years, shifted under their feet. The Murdochs’ decision will inevitably prove catastrophic for Fox News and will likely be an inflection point that marks a wholesale change to a media landscape that, to paraphrase Matt Taibbi, has calcified in progressive concrete. (snip) Could there be a more fundamental act of disloyalty to Fox’s viewers? Could it have come at a worse time, when conservatives rightly feel that they face an existential threat from progressives set upon a coup?
Saturday Schadenfreude: CNN aired an amazing

confrontation that devastated Randi Weingarten 28 replies
As Fox News moves leftward, CNN, the sick man of cable news, just aired a segment that would hearten any alienated FNC viewers that happened to catch it. Is this a portent of things to come?
The New York Post reports on the confrontation that must have shocked Randi Weingarten, the head of the AFT who this past week falsely claimed to a congressional committee that she had fought every day to reopen schools, when, in fact, she and her union were the major force keeping them closed. A paid CNN commentator, Scott Jennngs, delivered the truth bomb.
God must approve of MAGA, because Donald Trump is surely blessed. He's never been a politician, and he's famously undisciplined on the campaign trail. But he is always blessed with the most incapable opponents to run against. Those opponents have been the embodiment of incompetence magnified by unlikability. (snip) Joe Biden announced his candidacy in an early-morning video release, because he wasn't capable of doing it live — and we all know it. That's how horrible of a candidate he is. Joe certainly isn't the worst the Dems could put forward, but that's a testament to how bad their choices are
Early in my professional career, an experienced colleague shared with me a bit of advice.
“If you sell people what they want to buy,” he said, “you’ll have a very successful career. If you sell people what you think they want to buy, you might still be successful. But if you sell people what you want to sell them, you’ll fail miserably.” (snip) Yet this lesson apparently isn’t taught at The Wharton School of Finance, where Bud Light marketing VP Alissa Heinerscheid earned a Master of Business Administration degree, and where tuition and supplies alone will run you $250K for its two-year MBA program.
I am dismayed that Donald Trump seems to be adopting the tactics of the Biden-dominated DNC and rejecting the opportunity for voters to hear directly from candidates for their parties’ nomination in a presidential debate. In a post on Truth Social, he writes:
I see that everybody is talking about the Republican Debates, but nobody got my approval, or the approval of the Trump Campaign, before announcing them. When you’re leading by seemingly insurmountable numbers, and you have hostile Networks with angry, TRUMP & MAGA hating anchors asking the “questions,” why subject yourself to being libeled and abused?
Both Tucker Carlson and Fox News remain mum on the departure of Fox News’s most popular host beyond the terse initial announcement. (snip) the Wall Street Journal reported: "Mr. Carlson, whose contract was renewed in 2021, will be paid out for the rest of his contract, people familiar with the matter said. Mr. Carlson is paid about $20 million a year, one of the people said." (snip) Tucker’s increasing willingness to use a good versus evil framework to discuss the political contest today has been evident for some time now. (snip) I suspect streaming will be his chosen vehicle.

Former Obama-era CIA Director Mike Morell and current Secretary of State Antony Blinken were recently exposed as being behind the infamous “intel letter” that sought to dismiss Hunter Biden’s laptop as Russian disinformation. Now, a new report is providing unassailable evidence of exactly what the motive behind the gambit was. According to The Washington Examiner, Morell sent a recruitment email to gather signatories for the letter. Notably, in the email, he admitted that the entire purpose was to give Joe Biden a rebuttal to Donald Trump’s attacks during the presidential debates.

Former White House Chief Medical Adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci and teachers union boss Randi Weingarten are furiously trying to rewrite history on their role in promoting the disastrous school lockdowns that paralyzed the U.S. during the COVID-19 pandemic and left a generation of children behind.
"Show me a school that I shut down and show me a factory that I shut down. Never. I never did," Fauci told New York Times Magazine last month.

But I never criticized the people who had to make the decisions

An embattled George Soros-bankrolled prosecutor in St. Louis resigned Thursday amid a legal effort by Missouri's attorney general to fire her for allegedly neglecting her duties.
St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kimberly Gardner, the city's top prosecutor, is stepping down following repeated, bipartisan calls for her resignation from officials across the state.
Gardner's office tweeted her resignation letter, which was addressed to the people of St. Louis. Gardner is one of the first progressive prosecutors whom Soros, a liberal billionaire and Democrat mega-donor, bankrolled in 2016 and again for her re-election in 2020. She announced last month that she would seek a third term. Her resignation is effective June 1.
