Stacey Abrams: Republicans Are Making
It ‘Safe to Discriminate Again’
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 1/29/2025 9:36:26 PM
Former Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The Reid Out” that Republicans were making it “safe to discriminate” by going after DEI. Abrams said, “While Donald Trump may be the avatar, he’s not an outlier as long as the rest of the Republican Party suborn what is happening. Whether it’s Stephen Miller at the podium or a U.S. senator they are all agreeing to the premise of Project 2025. Which is they want to hoard opportunity and legalize discrimination. We have spent 248 years as a nation undoing our original sins, which include slavery, silencing women, denying native Americans their citizenship a whole host of challenges.

Democratic California Rep. Norma Torres is doubling down on holding President Donald Trump responsible for contributing to the fatal aircraft collision at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport Wednesday night despite the president being in office for just over a week.
Torres fired off two tweets late Wednesday night and early Thursday morning appearing to attribute the aviation disaster to executive actions Trump took related to a federal hiring freeze and firing several agency heads. There is no indication that the president’s actions contributed to the midair collision, a White House official told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The Trump administration notably exempted air traffic controllers from the president’s hiring freeze,
Failed Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz has a bad case of sour grapes.
Talking to MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Waltz lamented the “pure hell” of losing bigly in the election to President Donald J. Trump.
And while that sentiment isn’t surprising his attempt to keep alive one of the most ridiculous conspiracies of all time was.
“We spent three days debating trying to debate that President Musk gave a Nazi salute… Of course he did.”
Good grief, we’re back to this?! [Tweet, video]
The good news is, Walz’s empathic “of course he did” could land him in legal trouble which might squash the Dem narrative for once and for all.

Investigators are going to have to look at every possible reason a military Black Hawk Helicopter could crash into an American Airlines passenger jet landing at Reagan Airport in D.C.
The calls from air traffic controllers for the helicopter to “return to base” raise serious concerns over what may have caused this crash.
We even pulled the altitude and flight tracking data that revealed sharp zig-zags and a sudden drop in altitude moments before the crash. Here are the possible reasons behind the disaster:
Mechanical Failure
Air Traffic Control Failure
Human Error
Nefarious Action
Pilot Suicide

Watch out, Nancy. Accountability is coming!
Senator Ted Cruz questioned Kash Patel on Thursday during his confirmation hearing in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Nancy Pelosi’s refusal to protect the US Capitol on January 6, 2021.
Finally, the truth is coming out!
Senator Ted Cruz: What were you doing on that day?
Kash Patel: On that day, specifically, responding to, preparing to mobilize and employ the National Guard once we got the lawful request from the local governing authority, which was the mayor of DC and the speaker of the House.
Senator Ted Cruz: Now, how many days in advance were you working to prepare the Department of Defense

On Thursday, Health and Human Services Secretary-nominee Robert F. Kennedy sat before yet another Senate committee to answer questions, and it went about as well as expected. When Kennedy appeared before the Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday, he was questioned by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), who went on a wild rant about whether he supported onesies with an anti-vax message on them. It was comedy gold.
Sadly, Sanders also sits on the Senate HELP (Health, Education, Labor and Pensions) Committee, so he had a chance to dig deeper into the mystery of the onesies and other matters. Broken Record Bernie wants universal healthcare,
President Donald Trump's nominee for the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, had her confirmation hearing on Thursday before the Senate's Select Committee on Intelligence.
Right out of the gate, she got some great assistance from Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), who blew up the Democrat smears against her, specifically calling out Hillary Clinton for her comments. He explained that Gabbard has served in the military for more than 20 years, with multiple combat tours. [Tweet, video]
"She has undergone five FBI background checks. I spent more than two hours last week reviewing the latest. Putting eyes on more than 300 pages. It's clean as a whistle." [....]

This week, Senate confirmation hearings continue for several of President Trump's Cabinet nominees. Most Americans on both sides of the aisle agree that any President, Republican or Democrat, is entitled to have the people he wants in his Cabinet. But for Senate Democrats who are still reeling from the butt-whoopin' they took in November at the hands of the man they tried for so long to imprison with their various impeachment and legal antics, Trump Derangement Syndrome appears to be overtaking them at every turn. While Senate confirmation hearings should be serious events, the behavior of Senate Democrats is anything but.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Trump’s nominee to be Health and Human Services secretary, took the hot seat for the second day in a row on Thursday, this time appearing before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor & Pensions, where he was peppered with questions right off the bat about his position on autism and vaccines.
After listening to Democrats batter Kennedy on this issue, Sen. Rand Paul used his time to advocate for medical freedom and humility in science.
“The discussion over vaccines is so oversimplified and dumbed down that we never really get to real truths and it’s why people up here are so separated
Good Lord, Tim Walz Is Insane

I realize you probably haven’t given Tim Walz, the Governor of Minnesota and former running mate of Kamala Harris, much thought since the election. Hell, most people didn’t give him much thought during the election either. He’s crazy. More than that, he’s incoherent, which is a side-effect of literal crazy. His recent appearance on The Rachel Maddow Show demonstrated not only this, but just how awful the judgment of Kamala Harris was to have picked him in the first place. Bullet-dodged, America.
To understand how the nominee of a major political party could pick a running mate whose communications skills consist of vomiting up a Jumble,
We thought we would never get tired of all the winning, but we had no idea. Tired? We have more energy than the freshly unleashed Permian Basin. In a mere ten days, our new president has comprehensively repudiated everything the left has tried to build over the last half-century. He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored – appropriately since the Democrats are almost as mad about us deporting their illegal alien serfs as they were about us freeing their slaves. He has destroyed the Potemkin village to save it. Donald Trump has not only gotten inside their OODA Loop
Democrats have been downright embarrassing themselves during Kash Patel’s confirmation hearing for FBI Director.
So far, Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) has had the most absurd exchange with the nominee when he asked about potential action against FBI agents who aided in special counsel Jack Smith’s politically motivated investigation into President Donald Trump.
The senator began by referencing the news that the Justice Department fired prosecutors involved in the effort to convict Trump over January 6 and the mishandling of classified documents.
“You’ve committed that the FBI will not be politicized,” Blumenthal began. “Here’s your first test.
As of Wednesday evening, at least three fires have broken out in Western North Carolina in areas that were decimated by Hurricane Helene, according to Fox Weather. The fires are largely located in McDowell County, which is just northeast of Asheville. [Tweet, video]
So far, there have been no injuries, though numerous outbuildings have been destroyed. Many of the homes in the area were already destroyed in late September when Helene hit the region. Even so, evacuation orders were in place, and a shelter has been opened at a local Baptist church. [Tweet, video]

WASHINGTON — One of three liberals on a Supreme Court dominated by conservatives, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said she has found an outlet for the frustration that can result from being in the minority on the nation’s highest court: boxing. “I take boxing lessons,” Jackson said Wednesday in an interview with The Associated Press at the Supreme Court. “And I think that helps you to really get out any frustrations.” There have been more than a few dissents for the first Black woman on the Supreme Court, including the end of affirmative action in college admissions and a grant of
A first-term House Democrat is attacking White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on X after she sought to clarify a White House memo rescinding an earlier policy statement on President Donald Trump's federal funding order. "Karoline Leavitt is a Fake Christian, like so many in this Golden Calf administration," Rep. Dave Min, D-Calif., wrote on Wednesday.
It comes after the White House rescinded an Office of Management and Budget (OMB) memo that ordered the freeze of most federal grants and assistance, which was blocked by a federal judge on Tuesday.
As reported earlier, former Democrat Senator Bob Menendez, 71, sobbed in court as he was sentenced to 11 years in prison for bribery and corruption.

A Connecticut state mental health worker has been accused of fraudulently changing Republican voter registrations to Democrat following a September voting event.
Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services employee Arlanda Brantley, 57, faces “five counts each of Fraudulent Registration and Primary or Enrollment Violations,”(snip)
After a “national voting event” at the Western Connecticut Mental Health Network in Torrington, Connecticut on Sept. 17, Brantley allegedly changed “several” voter registration cards with an affiliation of “Republican” or “No” to “Democrat” “without the consent of the registrants.” Police said she then submitted the cards to the Torrington Registrar of Voters clerk,(snip)

Trump for Airliner Crash, Here's Why They're Wrong 16 replies
On January 29th, 2025, the United States suffered its first hull loss of a passenger airliner since the Colgan crash of 2009. Tragically, 67 people appear to have perished after a mid-air collision between a CRJ-700 regional jet operated by PSA (contracted by American Airlines) and a military UH-60 Blackhawk. The CRJ was flying a circling approach to runway 33 at Ronald Reagan National Airport (DCA), which sits directly across the river from the nation's Capitol. In layman's terms, they were flying down the Potomac with the end of the approach being a low-altitude left turn onto short final to land
Conservatives on social media rallied around Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday as the Trump nominee for secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) faced questions from senators in his confirmation hearing. "RFK crushed it," conservative commentator Charlie Kirk posted on X. "Very proud of him. Confirm him, now!"
"RFK killed it today," RNC national committeewoman Amy Kremer posted on X." So proud of him! LFG."
"RFK Jr is crushing this hearing," former GOP Rep. Scott Taylor posted on X. "Dems look unhinged and very petty. America is sicker, more obese, and more unhealthy than ever. Something has to change!"
Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security chief, Kristi Noem, has frozen government funding for the progressive groups that aid migrants, pending a 90-day review.
Appearing on Fox News’s Will Cain Show on Wednesday, Noem said all grant funding “abused by NGOs to facilitate illegal immigration” has been stopped.“It’s amazing to me the hundreds of millions of dollars that have been spent by the federal government that has been sent to NGOs to facilitate this invasion of our country,” Noem told Cain.

Embattled Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass made her big play this week to rebuild Pacific Palisades in her own image. Needless to say, it won't be pretty.
During what the Los Angeles Times called "a freewheeling half-hour walking tour in Pacific Palisades," with reporters and "chief recovery officer" and former LAPD commissioner Steve Soboroff, Bass announced that the city plans to hire "an outside consultant to handle a significant rebuilding contract for areas devastated by this month’s Palisades fire," as the Times put it.
“They’re going to represent you and make sure that everybody does exactly what they say they’re going to do,” Soboroff told reporters.
Pacific Palisades residents were not
A California bill that would allow higher education institutions to prioritize slave descendants in college admissions is drawing harsh critique from some civil rights experts.
Introduced in December, the bill, AB 7, is a project of Democrat Assemblymember Isaac Bryan who represents part of Los Angeles.
If passed, it would allow the state’s two public higher education systems, the California State University and the University of California, as well as private colleges and universities to “consider providing a preference in admissions to an applicant who is a descendant of slavery, as defined, to the extent it does not conflict with federal law.”
Any NYT reader looking at the buzzy front page headline below would immediately think that Robert F Kennedy Jr. is a madman. Can he really be an advocate for repealing the polio vaccine, a disease that has killed and crippled tens of millions of kids?
“Kennedy’s Lawyer Has Asked the F.D.A. to Revoke Approval of the Polio Vaccine”
To the ordinary reader, the headline says pretty clearly that Kennedy asked his lawyer to revoke the polio vaccine. The headline makes the shocking accusation that Kennedy is in favor of banning the polio vaccine. There is no other way of interpreting it.
But it is flagrantly false and a gross distortion of the truth.
What kind of people are Democrats in terms of human decency?
I blogged yesterday about about their execrable behavior to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. at his Senate confirmation hearings for the Health and Human Services portfolio in the new Trump administration. They bellowed. They bloviated. They interrupted, while Kennedy remained the perfect gentleman in a setting no gentleman should ever have to endur.
