MSNBC Guest: Donald Trump Is ‘Exactly
Like Hitler’
Posted By: Dreadnought, 9/15/2024 11:42:48 PM
Reverend Dr. Jacqui Lewis said on MSNBC’s broadcast of “The Saturday Show” that former President Donald Trump is “exactly like” Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. Host Jonathan Capehart said, “Give me your response to what Donald Trump is doing?” Lewis said, “It’s outrageous but expected by an authoritarian who wants to take us to Nazi Germany. We exploited racism, fascism to Nazi Germany. We know how to do it.” She continued, “Let’s not pretend that Donald Trump isn’t exactly like Mussolini, exactly like Hitler, he is that guy. I want to say something to the American people. I live in a neighborhood, Jonathan.

of Hate and Division’ Puts America’s
Security in Danger 0 replies
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Monday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that former President Donald Trump’s politics of “hate and division” put the United States’ security in danger.
Clinton said, “I’m very hopeful, and even optimistic that Americans who do not want to see a continuation of this politics of hate and division will reject Trump.”
She continued, “The object in this case is Donald Trump, his demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world. You know, they were merciless about what they saw as President Biden’s problems in the debate and calling for him to withdraw.
Saudi diplomat and former intelligence chief Turki al-Faisal recently lamented the weak response by the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden and the greater West to Yemen’s Houthi terrorists disrupting commercial shipping in the Red Sea, the Guardian reported on Sunday, dismissing “pinprick bombings” as insufficient.
The British Guardian newspaper was relaying comments that al-Faisal made during an appearance at London’s Chatham House to discuss the current turmoil in the Middle East. The Houthi terrorist movement, which relies heavily on support from Saudi Arabia’s longtime geopolitical rival Iran, has dramatically expanded its international profile

Have Been Nicer’ in Phone Call After
Assassination Attempt 0 replies
Former President Donald Trump said on Monday that President Joe Biden called him in the wake of his second assassination attempt and “couldn’t have been nicer.”
Trump revealed during a Spaces conversation on X that the president called to discuss Secret Service protection.
“We had a very nice call. It was about Secret Service protection,” Trump said.
“He couldn’t have been nicer,” Trump added.
The White House also described the call as “cordial” and that the president “conveyed his relief that [Trump] is safe.”
Following the second assassination attempt on Donald Trump, a common refrain from the left was that political violence is a "both sides" issue. MSNBC tried that line multiple times, as did some of the major newspapers, with the idea being that you can't call out Democrat rhetoric because Republican rhetoric has caused issues as well. So what was the evidence for that equivocation being used as a way to deflect from someone trying to murder Trump again? CNN's Dana Bash provided a perfect example of it when she accused JD Vance of inciting "bomb threats" in Springfield, OH. To be sure, the claim
Watching the media/left-wing euphoria on national and state-level polling numbers since Democrat elites forced Joe Biden out of the presidential race and installed Kamala Harris in his place has been an exercise in frustration mixed with sprinklings of hilarity along the way.
But not long after the Democrat National Convention, reality soon intruded and the Harris-Walz political honeymoon fizzled to some extent, with GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump edging her out earlier this month in a Siena/New York Times national poll, as we previously reported. This is something that had not been expected considering the six weeks of fawning coverage she received.
Embattled rapper and hip hop musician Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested in New York City Monday night amid a federal investigation into sex trafficking allegations, his lawyer and sources said.
It’s unclear what charges the fallen star is facing, but the New York Times reported that the arrest follows a grand jury indictment.
Combs has also been accused of a long pattern of domestic violence against his former partner, R&B singer Cassie Ventura. She sued him in November and the pair quickly settled. But a distressing video of him assaulting Ventura in a hotel hallway in 2016 recently resurfaced — prompting a new round of backlash.

Failures Leading Up to First Attempt on

Senator Josh Hawley (R., Mo.) released a whistleblower report Monday on the law-enforcement failures leading up to the assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump two months ago. The report was released one day after a suspect was apprehended in Florida for trying to kill Trump on his golf course in Florida.
The Secret Service’s failures to secure Trump’s campaign rally in Butler, Pa., on July 13 were extensive and constituted one of the most consequential security debacles in U.S. history. Chief among them was law enforcement’s apparent choice to leave the rooftop of the American Glass Research (AGR) building unguarded, allegedly because of heat, before gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks
As Springfield, Ohio has been in the news over the burden of an influx of Haitians on the residents there, there has also been a concern about alleged bomb threats in recent days. While the mainstream media, especially CNN's Dana Bash, were all too quick to blame former and potentially future President Donald Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), Republican Gov. Mike DeWine made clear that the 33 bomb threats were "determined to be hoaxes."
During a Monday press briefing, in which he shared other security measures, DeWine made clear that the threats were not only "hoaxes,"
Reading the Lie of the Green (and Polls)

Reading the lie of the green is a golf term that has to do with helping you increase your score by having to putt less. If you've seen any tournament on television or even in person, golfers have all sorts of mannerisms they display when sizing up a putt. Sometimes, they squat and stare. Other times, they walk in a large circle all the way around the ball and the hole to see it from all 360 degrees. You've seen golfers hold up their putter like a pendulum to help measure what slope there is, if any. In politics, especially when media

Ohio state police will conduct daily sweeps of schools in Springfield after authorities have been forced to investigate “at least 33” bomb threats that led to evacuations and temporary building closures, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said Monday.
“We want to make sure, as school continues this week in Springfield, that parents have confidence that the school is in fact safe,” the Republican governor said at a press conference.
Each bomb threat has been a hoax without “any validity at all,” DeWine said.//snip//DeWine on Monday indicated the threats were being made by non-American actors.

WaPo Worse? 3 replies
We just had the second attempt to assassinate a major-party nominee for president in the last two months. If you're a major news media outlet, what would be the headline for today that leads your website? Trump Survives Second Assassination Attempt? Secret Service Fails to Secure Former President Again? Or perhaps just Suspect Arrested in Firearm Incident?
Not if you're Bloomberg. They headline a story that went up late yesterday, just a couple of hours after the Secret Service managed to stop the second would-be assassin. Their big takeaway is ... all of the pouncing Trump did:
West Palm Beach, Florida — Ryan Wesley Routh, the suspect in the apparent assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump, may have been lying in wait for nearly 12 hours along the tree line at Trump’s golf club, authorities said in a criminal complaint on Monday.
Routh, 58, was charged with possession of a firearm while a convicted felon and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number during an initial appearance in federal court Monday morning. The investigation into Sunday’s apparent attempt on Trump’s life is continuing, and additional charges could be brought, law enforcement officials familiar with the matter told CNN.

The U.S. Navy commissioned a new submarine on Saturday, the first vessel in its fleet designed to fully integrate male and female sailors. (snip) The USS New Jersey was designed for two genders from the outset with accommodations like increased privacy in washrooms and sleeping areas, Vice Admiral Robert Gaucher, commander of Submarine Forces Atlantic, told NorthJersey.com. Access to top bunks and overhead valves were also designed with the height, reach and strength of women in mind. The nuclear-powered submarine was unofficially nicknamed "Jersey Girl," and its interior spaces decorated with posters and memorabilia representing the state, including a guitar signed by Jon Bon Jovi, the news outlet reported.

The alleged would-be assassin arrested for targeting Donald Trump while he golfed in Florida may have been given inside information about the former president’s schedule, according to an ex-FBI official who called the possibility “scary.”
Chris Swecker, a retired FBI assistant director, told Newsweek that the feds and other law enforcement will be probing how the suspect, Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, allegedly appeared to know Trump would be at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Fla., on Sunday.
“The biggest question to answer is: ‘How did the would-be assassin know to be at that location at that time?'” said Swecker, who worked on FBI criminal investigations.
A campaign speech by Minnesota first lady Gwen Walz, in which she used a sweeping hand gesture to say "bye bye" and "turn the page" on former President Trump energized a Wisconsin audience, but induced cringes elsewhere.
Gwen Walz was slammed as the "living embodiment of Trump Derangement Syndrome" for a stump speech for her husband, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, and Vice President Kamala Harris in Wisconsin on Saturday.
In the speech, Gwen Walz cited Harris’ debate performance last week and how she repeatedly said the election is the time to "turn the page" on the current political climate.
The alleged gunman who authorities said targeted former President Trump while he golfed in Florida Sunday afternoon previously declared on social media that “Democracy is on the ballot” this year, and “we cannot lose” — echoing the anti-Trump rhetoric used by Vice President Kamala Harris and President Biden.
Law enforcement sources identified the suspect as Ryan Wesley Routh, 58.
Routh, who has a lengthy criminal record from North Carolina, frequently posted about politics and exclusively donated to Democratic candidates and causes dating back to 2019.
There is a great irony in a certain autistic Swedish teenager who wants to save the planet from the evils of fossil fuel but is, at the same time, willing to turn over a significant portion of that planet to Bronze Age barbarians who care as much about the environment as they do women's rights.
But that's the case. The Swedish teenager in question is the Swedish Doom Pixie, Greta Thunberg, and in recognition of her support of Hamas, she has been named "Antisemite of the Week" by a group called StopAntisemitism. "Climate activist Greta Thunberg was named 'Antisemite of the Week' by a Jewish group following her arrest at
The gunman who allegedly staked out former President Donald Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course with an SKS rifle was able to exploit a security hole that the Secret Service has known about for years.
News photographers — including those hired by The Post — have had no problem repeatedly securing spots around the perimeter of the course to snap pictures of Trump playing golf or driving around in a golf cart.
They have even taken images — which require a clear line of sight to the 45th president — unnoticed through the bushes with telephoto lenses. Some have gotten as close as 75 yards — without so much
It was Groundhog Day during Monday’s edition of ABC’s The View. The staunchly anti-Trump cast once again reacting to an assassination attempt against former President Trump with a mix of claiming political violence came from “both sides,” calls or blaming guns, a call for a crackdown on the First Amendment, and one co-host scoffing at those who dare to suggest that politically motivated violence had no place in America.
Arguably, the worst reaction came from fake Republican and DNC speaker Ana Navarro, who seemed to scoff at the outrage over the political violence directed at her favorite hate object: Trump.
David Frum, a prominent “Never Trump” pundit and former speechwriter for President George W. Bush, claimed that former President Donald Trump and his running mate Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) “want to present themselves as near-victims of violence” following the second assassination attempt against Trump that transpired on Sunday.
“Trump and his running mate have spent the past week successfully inciting violence in Springfield, Ohio. Today they want to present themselves as near-victims of violence — in this case, of violence completely unrelated to themselves and at a very safe distance from themselves,” Frum wrote in a Sunday X post.
Pope Francis has ruffled the feathers of some religious leaders in the United States by saying that all religions provide a path to God.
Francis delivered the spontaneous remark late last week during an interfaith gathering with young people at a Catholic institution in Singapore, according to The Christian Post. He went off-script from his prepared speech, emphasizing that different faiths serve as “languages” leading to the same divine truth.
“There’s only one God, and each of us has a language to arrive at God,” Francis said, as reported by the Catholic news website Crux Now. “Some are Sheik, Muslim, Hindu, Christian, and they are different paths [to God].”
Yes, It IS Incitement

I have a very different take than Jazz's on what happened yesterday. I have no doubt that it was an assassination attempt against Trump, and I also have no doubt that the Routh was incited to violence by the outrageous rhetoric deployed against Trump. There is lots of evidence coming out about Ryan Wesley Routh, who is obviously about as deranged as the average MSNBC viewer. But among those things is his support for Biden/Harris (he has a Biden/Harris bumper sticker), his obsession with Ukraine, and his hatred for Donald Trump. Routh's son Oran Routh told the DailyMail.com shortly after Sunday's shooting that his father hates Trump
Donald Trump was golfing in West Palm Beach, Florida, when Ryan Wesley Routh waited along the green, hoping to assassinate the former president and record it. He left a GoPro and an AK-style rifle mounted with a scope on the scene. He was later apprehended by local police, but not before scurrying when Secret Service agents opened fire on him; they saw the barrel from his gun through the shrubbery. Ryan Wesley Routh has a criminal record that spans the Himalayas. We’re waiting to see if he was on the radar for any federal law enforcement agencies vis-à-vis recent threats:
"In its boldest move, Hezbollah sent four drones toward the Karish platform several weeks ago, all of which were intercepted by the Israel Defense Forces," reported The Times of Israel on July 31, 2022.
This was exactly what surrendering part of the gas field to Hezbollah was supposed to prevent.
"The proposal for this point involves recognizing it as part of Lebanon, with UN forces deployed there as a neutral party for both sides." — The Jerusalem Post, September 8, 2024.
United Nations forces are absolutely useless and pull back whenever there's any conflict. (Nor is the UN remotely neutral.)
