Dems' Hoodwinking Themselves Makes Their
Loss in VA Redistricting Battle Before
Midterms Even Sweeter

Original Article

The Democrats are so upset they're losing the redistricting battle. I wrote earlier on Saturday on how Kamala Harris is now promoting a slew of bad ideas in response, including going after the Electoral College, packing the Supreme Court, and making Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C., new U.S. states. It just shows that to the Dems, it isn't about the rule of law or the Constitution: it's about how they can get control and/or hold onto it. What makes the Democrats' meltdown even better, and puts some icing on the cake, is just how much money they spent on the losing effort attempting to add four seats in Virginia.

Also, VA started the ball rolling for red state redistricting by going to the Supreme Court and getting slapped down hard.

What has been joyous over the last couple years is seeing the dems successfully shooting themselves in the foot, over and over. They initiate an action and not only do they fail, they receive legal decisions that SHUT DOWN their actions for the future, sometimes stuff they have been getting away with for a long time, AND open pathways for Republicans to hammer them down even farther. Schadenfreude over self caused harm by people that deserve the slap down is especially sweet.

Victims and survivors of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing reacted with shock and horror at the possibility—if not likelihood—that a close associate of the "Blind Sheikh" terrorist mastermind who inspired the attack may soon be a member of Congress. Adam Hamawy, a Princeton plastic surgeon, is a frontrunner in a crowded Democratic primary to replace retiring Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D.) in New Jersey's deep-blue 12th Congressional District—despite his years-long friendship with Omar Abdel-Rahman, the Muslim extremist cleric who was sentenced to life in prison for his role in the 1993 bombing. The February 1993 blast killed 6 people and wounded more than 1,000.

What is it about Democrats and ever more grandiose riggings? They've hatched a new plan to 'make Georgia Wisconsin' in that they plan to politicize the state Supreme Court race, which up until now, had been a studiously nonpartisan affair. Not surprisingly, two-time losing gubernatorial candidate, Stacey Abrams, and her judge sister, are behind it. According to Wall Street Journal columnist Jack Butler: Democrats want to transform what have been largely staid affairs in the Peach State into partisan battles, with Wisconsin as a model. If it succeeds, the effort likely won’t end there. ... Stacey Abrams, who remains an influential Democrat in Georgia despite losing two races for governor to Republican Brian Kemp,

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is having a terrible, no good, very bad couple of weeks. Former Reality TV star and mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt leveled Bass in a May 6th mayoral debate. So much so that Bass begged out of another televised debate on May 13, opting to do one-on-one interviews with favored press. And who could be more favorable than the leftist clown car over at MS NOW? On Saturday, Bass appeared with Jonathan Capeheart on "The Weekend" to talk about her goals for her second term. The lowlights: restoring copper wire in the streetlights, and dealing with the problems of L.A. that have "existed for 3-plus decades."

From time to time, something simple, like a graphic, provides the means for us to compare more complex, multiple issues. Such a graphic as this: (X) Here, we can not only easily compare the abilities, priorities, and fiscal responsibility of the Republican and Democrat parties, but also see the lack of honesty of the media. Barack Obama, “The One,” “The Lightbringer,” he who stopped the rise of the oceans and healed the planet, was a community organizer who admitted he couldn’t tell his friends what he did for a living. Apparently, organizing communities has no particular pay structure, no actual qualifications, and requires no actual labor or accomplishments.

Let me hit you with a scene from the movie adaptation of Michael Lewis’s book on the subprime mortgage crisis, The Big Short. Trust me, it will help crystallize what I am trying to convey about the climate hoax and clean energy scam. First some context: in the movie, hedge fund manager, Mark Baum (Steve Carell) has purchased credit default swaps from derivatives trader, Jared Vennett (Ryan Gosling) as a short against $1 billion in subprime mortgage-backed securities. The scene opens with Vennett being yelled at and peppered with questions from Baum’s associate, Vinny Daniel (Jeremy Strong). Jared is asked to explain why the price of bonds comprised of subprime mortgages

If Americans won’t have the meekness to get sick enough ahead of the midterm elections to justify lockdowns and all mail-in ballots, it seems globalists might be willing to manufacture another “global health emergency.” Hopefully Donald Trump and We the People are too smart to fall for that destructive nonsense twice. Naturally, many Americans will ask how an outbreak of Ebola in Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) could possibly necessitate the World Health Organization (WHO) assuring the world that it is in imminent danger of Ebola contagion. But if there is one thing we learned from the COVID-19 lockdowns, it is that the WHO

At least eight people were injured Saturday in Modena, Italy when a crazed driver rammed his car into a crowd at full speed — and then knifed a hero who stopped him when he tried to flee following his cowardly act. The man has been identified by authorities as Salim el Koudri, a 31-year-old Italian citizen of Moroccan origin. The motive is not yet known, but a terrorist attack is not being ruled out, Italian newspaper La Pressa reported. El Koudri accelerated suddenly then zigzagged erratically on Via Emilia in the northern Italian city around 4:30 pm, mowing down at least four pedestrians.

Barack Obama appeared on Late Night with Stephen Colbert on Wednesday evening and decided it was a good time to rewrite history. And he did it with a smile and a room full of applauding liberals who were never going to challenge his lies. Obama took veiled shots at President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly known as the Iran nuclear deal, and dared to claim his diplomacy was a smashing success. "There's no dispute that it worked, and we didn't have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz," Obama said. (X) Actually, there is a

Cuba's communist leaders are facing some tough times. The Cuban people are getting good and tired of no electricity, no decent food, no garbage pickup, and the prospect of a jail term if they complain about any of that, and yet the people are taking to the streets anyway. This has to be making the remnants of the old Castro regime nervous. Also making them nervous is President Trump's removal by force of a key Cuban ally, Venezuelan strongman dictator Nicolás Maduro, and the subsequent shutting off of the Venezuelan oil that was helping keep Cuba's energy economy afloat. Could Cuba's El Presidente Miguel Díaz-Canel and his communist cohorts be thinking

Islam is not a religion in the sense that Western Civilization understands the word. Islam is a fusion of social, political, and theological authority. It is antithetical to our constitution and, in practice, has been militarily hostile to America since our nation’s inception. The only English word that comes close to describing Islam is “Theocracy,” a system of government that fuses religion and autocracy, but even this falls short of the mark. In the words of Dr. Peter Hammond from his book, Slavery, Terrorism and Islam, Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life. Islam has religious,

If California Republicans need yet another reason (out of endless reasons) to get to the polls this fall, then the fact that California schools are still allowing boys to compete in girls' sports is just such a reason. This practice is unfair to the girls, and it's in violation of the Trump administration's interpretation of Title IX; most of all, it flies in the face of human biology. That isn't stopping these males from pushing their way into girls' sports leagues, but now the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) is trying to split the baby by putting the top-scoring girl up on the top tier of the podium with a boy.

Nick Kristof of the New York Times has created a new breed of Israeli dogs. There was a time long ago in a distant galaxy when I used to read the NYTimes opinion page. Before Obama, there were here and there some interesting thought pieces, but with the rise of Obama, the articles became unreadable. Thomas Friedman, Paul Krugman, Maureen Dowd and the rest became leftist partisans and oftentimes admitted as much. Krugman, the erstwhile Nobel Laureate, wrote a tome, Conscience of a Liberal, as if lefties actually have a conscience. The one person whose work I could not stomach was that of Nick Kristof.

Kamala Harris’ Dangerous Brainstorm 19 replies

For a sense of how bereft the Democrats are of credible leaders and sensible policy ideas all one has to do is listen to the remarks of former Vice President Kamala Harris on the Win with Black Women podcast. She proposed a “no bad ideas brainstorm” in which Democrats would discuss “What we need to do, and think about doing, around the Electoral College … expanding the Supreme Court … statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C.” Harris, whom most polls of Democrat voters show as the front-runner for their party’s 2028 presidential nomination, said this as if offering fresh ideas.

Three suspects, including two teenagers, committed a staggering 12 shootings in the Austin area over the weekend. The Texas governor wants to see them behind bars for a long time, instead of released as “misguided minors” to shoot more people. The 15-year-old stole his gun on Saturday from the exact same store where the 17-year-old accomplice had already stolen a firearm. There was a warrant out for the latter’s arrest over the theft. ABC7 KATV did not provide names for any of the suspects, but merely said that the third suspect fled the vehicle when officers stopped it to arrest the teenagers. Officers were pursuing the vehicle when

Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was lampooned on social media for using a bulletproof shield on wheels while delivering a race-baiting rant on “voting rights.” The clown show unfolded Saturday at a rally in Montgomery, Alabama, where the Bronx Bolshevik tried to incite left-wing outrage following a Supreme Court decision repudiating race-based congressional redistricting as unconstitutional. The most notable part of AOC’s staged stunt was her absurd use of a portable bulletproof glass panel divider. “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez champions defunding the police, open borders, and abolishing ICE, yet she shields herself behind bulletproof glass,” one X commenter wrote. “The hypocrisy is hard to ignore.”

Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen broke down in tears while reflecting on his decision to drop his reelection bid after redistricting all but ensured he had no path to victory. Cohen (D-Tenn.), the sole Democrat in Tennessee’s congressional delegation, lamented the Republicans’ revamping of the Volunteer State’s 9th district, which is majority minority, and railed against redistricting as “bad for democracy.” “I’m upset by this,” the now-outgoing Democrat bemoaned to NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo on Friday. “And I don’t get the criticism of stand and fight.” Why would you fight when they changed the district and there aren’t enough votes for you to win? That’s silly.” Cohen, who has repped the Memphis-centered district since 2007,

Last week, in the wake of the Democrats losing the redistricting battles, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said, “We will beat the far-right extremists. We’re going to win in November, and then we’re going to crush their souls as it relates to the extremism that they are trying to unleash on the American people.” To Politico, this is a sign that Democrats had “ditched the niceties,” calling it “a marked reversal from years of high-minded Democratic rhetoric.” MS NOW reports that “Democrats say they are done playing defense.” “Niceties”? “High-minded rhetoric”? “Playing defense”? When have Democrats ever been like that?

A total of five people including two teenaged gunmen are dead after an active shooter situation at a San Diego mosque drew a massive police presence, police sources told The Post Monday. One of the victims was a mosque security guard who “played a pivotal role in assisting, this could have been worse,” said a San Diego police officer at the press conference. The suspects, believed to be aged 17 and 19, died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds, police said during a press conference. They fled in a white BMW and were found dead inside the vehicle. Two other adults were killed at the mosque by the gunmen, police said.
