UNHINGED: Los Angeles Times On Larry Elder ‘The Black Face of White Supremacist’

One of the most vile hit pieces that we have seen from the mainstream media against someone who is not named Trump. This is how you know that the Left is in panic mode. They are attacking Larry Elder viciously. That is because they know that Larry Elder could take down Governor Newsom.

Los Angeles Times Column: Larry Elder “The Black Face of White Supremacist”

By New York Latest News, August 20, 2021

California recall candidate Larry Elder may be black, but as far as some progressives are concerned, he’s also a “white supremacist face.”

“Larry Elder is the black face of white supremacism. You have been warned,” the Los Angeles Times Friday column called the conservative Los Angeles radio host candidacy “an insult to blackness.”

Known as the “Sage from South Central,” referring to the neighborhood of Los Angeles, the few working class he grew up in, Elder responded quickly to the headline.

“To play a race card with your South Central brothers, you have to be really scared and desperate,” Elder tweeted.

Elder leads the Republican Recall Candidates’ field to replace Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom in a special election on September 14.

Columnist Erica D. Smith wrote that blacks are “not monolithic,” but said that “elders oppose all public policy ideas that blacks support to help blacks.”

“Whenever you put a black face on white supremacy, like Larry Elder, there are people who use it as an opportunity to deny white supremacy,” Black Lives Matter Los Angeles said. Co-founder Melina Abdullah said in an article.

Elder supports policies such as increased school choices, reduced regulations to promote housing construction, and crackdowns on crime, and police are not involved in systematic racism, but with such accusations. Police officers claim to have withdrawn.

As crime increased, “it’s the very black and brown people who claim that the people on the left care about it,” he told the Los Angeles Times editorial board…

Leftists in U.S. and UK Want Reparations Paid to the Taliban

My latest in PJ Media:

Richard Burgon, a member of the British Parliament for the far-Left Labour party and Secretary of the Socialist Campaign Group of Labour MPs, demonstrated Tuesday that the Left’s commitment to the redistribution of wealth is indefatigable: He declared that what the West really needs to do now is start forking over money to the Taliban. Burgon tweeted: “The crisis in Afghanistan is the result of 20 years of disastrous military intervention. Just as in Iraq & Libya, backing US-led invasions led to a huge loss of life. There is no military solution in Afghanistan. The focus now should be on reparations and supporting refugees.”

Yes, reparations. Paying reparations to Afghanistan would essentially mean funding the Taliban, which has a billion-dollar budget as it is and has no need of the largesse of British or American taxpayers. And Burgon is not alone. Britain’s far-Left Stop the War Coalition issued a statement Sunday demanding that the British government “take a lead in offering a refugee programme and reparations to rebuild Afghanistan, an act which would go a great deal further in advancing the rights of the Afghan people, women in particular, than continued military or economic intervention in the fate of the Afghanistan.”

The call for reparations to the Taliban has been heard on this side of the Atlantic as well. Shabana Mir, an associate professor at American Islamic College in Chicago, first implied that Afghanistan didn’t need any help from the West: “The Western savior narrative vis-a-vis Afghanistan is a framing of Afghanistan as in need of Western help, as dependent on Western help — rather than as a Western-exploited and Western-ravaged people and land.” Then, however, she added: “The U.S. owes s**tloads of reparations to Afghanistan.” The U.S. should have no say in how this money is used: “I have hopes that Afghans can build, if military contractors and the U.S. would get the hell out of the way.”

Meanwhile, far-Left Canadian “journalist” Paul Jay believes that “there must be significant reparations paid to the Afghan people to be administered by the U.N.” Another Leftist “journalist,” Spencer Ackerman, who was primarily responsible ten years ago for getting all mention of Islam and jihad removed from U.S. counterterror training, asked: “What do we owe the Afghan people? We owe them a life they can live, resettling them in the United States if they so choose, and we owe them reparations. Reparations is a charged word, and I do not use it here to suggest that reparations for the descendants of the enslaved ought to wait until we pay reparations for the War on Terror. I mean here that throughout history, the losers of wars have had to pay reparations, though typically to the regimes and not people. But it is people whom the U.S. owes, not regimes.”

There is more. Read the rest here.

BIDEN’S LEGACY: Taliban in U.S. Gear Stage Mockery of Iconic Iwo Jima Flag-Raising Photo

Biden’s legacy encapsulated in a photo.

MOCKING IWO JIMA IMAGE


Elite Taliban unit wearing US gear appears to mock iconic American WWII photo

by Emma Colton, Fox News, August 21, 2021:

A Taliban fighting unit called the Badri 313 Battalion was spotted patrolling Afghanistan with U.S.-made gear, and posting one photo appearing to mock the iconic World War II photo, Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima.

Propaganda videos posted this week on channels affiliated with the Taliban show soldiers in the little-known Badri 313 Battalion carrying U.S. and U.S. ally-made weapons and gear that appear to be stolen from allied militaries while patrolling parts of Kabul.

In one propaganda photo, members of the Badri 313 Battalion are seen hoisting a Taliban flag in a similar fashion to the six U.S. Marines who raised the U.S. flag on Mount Suribachi during the Battle of Iwo Jima in 1945….

The Badri 313 special unit differs from typical Taliban fighters as they are made to look more like U.S. soldiers, with camouflage, combat boots, and body armor. They also carry M4 carbines and drive armored Humvees, the Sinclair Broadcasting Group reported.

“With the Taliban now in power, there is every reason to believe the militia could grow in strength,” Aroor added. “Expect to see much more of the Badri 313 in the weeks and months ahead.”

President and founder of Eurasia Group, Ian Bremmer, also posted a photo of Taliban fighters “with their new American gear” on Twitter Saturday morning.

The U.S. gave Afghan forces an estimated $28 billion in weaponry between 2002 and 2017. But now, “everything that hasn’t been destroyed is the Taliban’s now,” a U.S. official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told Reuters.

The seizure of American weaponry, such as advanced aircraft, serves as a propaganda tool, as insurgents are unable to operate the aircraft without training….

FACT CHECKING THE CDC: SARS-COV2 Vaccines and Shedding

There is growing debate on whether or not the SARS-COV2 vaccinated shed. Shedding occurs after someone is vaccinated and then transmits the SARS-COV2 disease to others that they come into contact with. There is serious discussion about individuals shedding after receiving their shots (vaxx).

One must remember that not only are Americans vaccinated but those who travel to the U.S. from other nations who have been vaccinated using different vaccines than those offered here may be shedding!

Science dictates that this be studied in depth in order to understand if getting vaccinated is a good thing or bad thing. Sadly, this issue has taken on a political twist that is not helpful.

In this column we discuss both sides and let you, our readers, determine if you should get vaccinated and if you do what are the risks of shedding, infecting others like family and friends.

To Shed Or Not To Shed – That Is The Question

The CDC website, under myths and facts, sates the following on shedding:

Do any of the COVID-19 vaccines authorized for use in the United States shed or release any of their components?

No. Vaccine shedding is the term used to describe the release or discharge of any of the vaccine components in or outside of the body. Vaccine shedding can only occur when a vaccine contains a weakened version of the virus. None of the vaccines authorized for use in the U.S. contain a live virus. mRNA and viral vector vaccines are the two types of currently authorized COVID-19 vaccines available.

However, Google under Covid 19 Common Questions gives a different take on shedding:

How long do recovered COVID-19 patients continue to shed the virus?

Recovered persons can continue to shed detectable SARS-CoV-2 RNA in upper respiratory specimens for up to 3 months after illness onset, albeit at concentrations considerably lower than during illness, in ranges where replication-competent virus has not been reliably recovered and infectiousness is unlikely.

SARS-COV2 – The Other Side Effects

In a video titled Dr. Mike Yeadon: On Covid-19 Vaccines The SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein is NOT a Passive Protein states:

“The spike protein is not a passive protein that the virus uses to anchor to human cells. Its biologically active… and prompts cells to stick together.

They are capable of precipitating some of the steps of the blood coagulation pathway.

All of the gene based vaccines that harness the bodies ability to manufacture the spike protein or part of it, should be regarded as having a class risk.

Can you think of a benign explanation for why you would want to give an experimental use authorized gene based vaccine to tens of millions of people who cannot possibly die if they run into this virus?

And the answer is – no you can’t, can you?

So if you can’t think of a benign explanation for what’s happening, and
remember its not the only bad thing that’s happening, then you have to look for malign explanations.

And I think I’ve come across what it is. Its this damn vaccine passport.”

Don’t let them fool you into thinking this will only be a temporary measure— like income tax. Once it starts, there’s no recovery from it. If you’re asked to do anything at all– if you’re told you don’t comply– you’re have the validity of your passport shut off, and you’re be coerced into doing whatever they tell you.

To VAXX or Not to VAXX

VAXXED Patients’ Blood Examined, Horrific Findings Revealed by German Physicians!

In an article titled “Bloodclotting and the Spike Protein: A Known Problem Long Before The Vees Were Produced” Dr. Mike Williams, the former CEO of Pfizer, states:

Even a cursory look at social media demonstrates that there are three main areas of concern around Covid vaccines at the moment: clotting disordersabnormal menses; and the possibility that those that are vaccinated are shedding that vaccine material.

There are of course other significant concerns, not least neurological damage following receipt of the vaccine but, as you will see, that may be as a consequence of one of the other three.

Z3 News in their article Critically Important – Unvaccinated People are Suffering A Multitude of Adverse Reactions With Concerns of Sterility & A Possible End To Reproduction For Humans From Being Near Vaccinated People Shedding Spike Proteins! reported:

“Studies Show that Vaccinated Individuals Spread Disease”, Intrado Globe Newswire, February 2, 2015.  Original article with all references found here

“Health officials are blaming unvaccinated children for the recent measles outbreak that started at Disneyland. However, with no blood tests proving the outbreak is from wild measles, the most likely source of the outbreak is a recently vaccinated individual, according to published science.

Scientific evidence demonstrates that individuals vaccinated with live virus vaccines such as MMR (measles, mumps and rubella), rotavirus, chicken pox, shingles and influenza can shed the virus for many weeks or months afterwards and infect the vaccinated and unvaccinated alike.1,2 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

Furthermore, vaccine recipients can carry diseases in the back of their throat and infect others while displaying no symptoms of a disease.11,12,13

“Numerous scientific studies indicate that children who receive a live virus vaccination can shed the disease and infect others for weeks or even months afterwards. Thus, parents who vaccinate their children can indeed put others at risk,” explains Leslie Manookian, documentary filmmaker and activist. Manookian’s award winning documentary, The Greater Good, aims to open a dialog about vaccine safety.

Both unvaccinated and vaccinated individuals are at risk from exposure to those recently vaccinated.  Vaccine failure is widespread; vaccine-induced immunity is not permanent and recent outbreaks of diseases such as whooping cough, mumps and measles have occurred in fully vaccinated populations.14,15  Flu vaccine recipients become more susceptible to future infection after repeated vaccination.16

Conclusion

The SARS-COV2 vaccines are new, in scientific terms. All vaccines used and distributed in the United States are currently not FDA approved.

We are years if not a decades away from understanding the long term effects of taking the SARS-COV2 vaccines.

Many have taken the SARS-COV2 vaccines and are doing fine, others are suffering and some dying from the effects of taking the vaccines.

The problem is that the federal government, companies, hospitals and social media are doing their best, using fear, to force individuals to take the vaccine. The idea of doctor patient decision making on taking or not taking the SARS-COV2 vaccine is almost moot.

To make matters worse, the federal government is now saying that individuals who have been vaccinated need a booster shot. Why? If the vaccine is truly effective why the booster shot?

The World Health Organization’s (HWO) website on Covid states:

Will COVID-19 vaccines provide long-term protection?

Because COVID vaccines have only been developed in the past months, it’s too early to know the duration of protection of COVID-19 vaccines. Research is ongoing to answer this question. However, it’s encouraging that available data suggest that most people who recover from COVID-19 develop an immune response that provides at least some period of protection against reinfection – although we’re still learning how strong this protection is, and how long it lasts.

Even WHO doesn’t know if the SARS-COV2 vaccine is effective.

So, there it is. Science is never settled, even though there are some who believe it is. We are a long way from knowing the truth about COVID-19 and SARS-COV2 vaccines.

To get vaxxed or not to get vaxxed is a personal decision. It’s your body and your choice. Choose wisely, in consultation with your doctor.

Biden’s Afghanistan Catastrophe, Immigration Malfeasance Threaten U.S. Security

Joe Biden’s abysmal failures in Afghanistan reverberate around the world, dismaying freedom loving people and causing great consternation to America’s allies, while simultaneously handing a victory to the Taliban, giving America’s adversaries around the world, including vicious terrorists, cause for celebration and encouragement.

The United States military was sent into Afghanistan immediately after the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 to hunt down those responsible for the devastating terror attacks and to deny al-Qaida and other terror organizations a safe haven and staging area from which the terrorists could launch additional terror attacks against the United States and its allies.

Ousting the Taliban from Afghanistan was a major element in what was billed as America’s “War on Terror.”

Biden’s loss of Afghanistan to the Taliban will reverberate around the world in many ways and for many years.  America’s allies have to wonder if they could possibly count on America in a crisis.  Clearly the people of Afghanistan who trusted our government have been abandoned by Biden and his administration.  Many of these hapless Afghanis can expect unrelenting, severe and violent retribution from the Taliban.

The thing about trust is that once trust is lost, it is all but impossible to restore.

However, the so-called “War on Terror” should have also focused on America’s ability to prevent terrorists from entering the United States to carry out attacks within our borders in the first place.

Nevertheless, with the exception of President Trump, both President George W. Bush and Barack Obama repeatedly made the absurd claim that “We are fighting them (the terrorists) over there so that we won’t have to fight them over here.”

That wrong-headed and bogus claim ignores the first paragraph of the preface of the official report, 9/11 and Terrorist Travel – Staff Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States” which states:

It is perhaps obvious to state that terrorists cannot plan and carry out attacks in the United States if they are unable to enter the country. Yet prior to September 11, while there were efforts to enhance border security, no agency of the U.S. government thought of border security as a tool in the counterterrorism arsenal. Indeed, even after 19 hijackers demonstrated the relative ease of obtaining a U.S. visa and gaining admission into the United States, border security still is not considered a cornerstone of national security policy. We believe, for reasons we discuss in the following pages, that it must be made one.

In addition to ceding Afghanistan to the Taliban and their terrorists allies, Biden has, since taking office, utterly ignored the findings, recommendation and, indeed, the warnings of the 9/11 Commission concerning the clear nexus between immigration and terrorism.

The anarchy on the southern border and the policies of the Biden administration to gut the enforcement of our immigration laws from within the interior of the United States undermines national security and public safety to an unprecedented extent, as I wrote about in my recent article, Biden’s Afghanistan Catastrophe Increases Terror Threat in US. The subtitle noted:  Biden administration, meanwhile, focuses solely on “domestic extremists”.

This also prompted me to write, Biden Ends War On Radical Islamist Terrorists ‘Over Here’ and ‘Over There’.

Now the Biden administration is flying thousands of Afghani refugees to military bases around the United States.  A critical issue that must be addressed is how these refugees will be vetted to make certain that terrorists and criminals have not embedded themselves within the thousands of Afghanis who are literally running for their lives.

The background of the Director of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Alejandro Mayorkas causes me great consternation.

Mayorkas served as the Director of United States Citizenship (USCIS) and Immigration Services under the Obama administration where  he was notorious for ordering the adjudicators to “Get to yes” and approve as many applications for various immigration benefits as possible ignoring potential fraud.

The 9/11 Commission, to which I testified, identified immigration fraud as a key method of entry and embedding for terrorists.

Pursuant to complaints filed by many beleaguered employees of USCIS the Office of Inspector General (OIG) found serious wrong doing by Mr. Mayorkas.  I wrote about Mayorkas and his dubious past in my article, Biden’s DHS: Department of Homeland SurrenderAlejandro Mayorkas, architect of DACA, picked by Biden to head DHS.

As the 20 anniversary of the terror attacks of 9/11 approaches, I remind you that just 19 hijacker/terrorists killed more people than were lost to the entire Japanese fleet at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 and the death count from 9/11 continues to climb to this very day as more victims succumb to the toxins to which they were exposed when the Towers collapsed.

Hope is not a strategy and national Security and Americans’ lives must be the first priority of our government and not an afterthought.

American Express Embraces Marxism, Racial Segregation with “Action Plan”

For 50 years, Martin Luther King, Jr. set the course for how we deal with race in America. “I have a dream,” he said, “my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”

His vision resonated in part because of its harmony with American values. We are “created equal.” Racial equality is fundamentally American.

Today, though, a new vision of race is making its way up the cultural totem pole. It’s called critical race theory, CRT for short, but in practice, it looks a lot like the segregation that civil rights leaders fought. CRT divides everything from group conversations to college dorms by racial, religious, and gender “identity groups.” White people with white people, black people with black people.

Make no mistake: CRT is un-American. But it’s getting the red-carpet treatment from woke corporations like American Express.

As Tyler O’Neil reported in FoxBusiness last week, American Express (1.00) invested $1 billion in an “anti-racism action plan” in 2020. Christopher Rufo, America’s foremost CRT whistleblower, detailed how the company forced its employees to attend CRT trainings that instructed “privileged” white people and Christians to defer to minorities before speaking. Some phrases, such as “I don’t see color,” were banned outright, threatening free speech.

Then, “anti-racist” speaker Khalil Muhammed showed the Marxist roots of the CRT ideology by attacking capitalism as fundamentally racist. Never mind that free-market economies have pulled billions of people out of poverty across all continents, not just Europe and North America.

American Express’s 1.00 score from 2ndVote is clearly well-deserved. But spreading a subversive ideology that segregates America along racial lines is the last straw – it’s time to cancel your American Express card! While Visa (2.62) and Discover (2.62) score higher, they both score a 1.00 on the issue of Basic Freedoms which is just unacceptable. Please reach out to ALL THREE companies using the above links to their score pages and let your voice be heard.

When American Express’ “action plan” hurts their bottom line, it’s a safe bet they’ll abandon it. Contact Amex today and tell them companies that go woke go broke.

BIDEN BLOODBATH: Taliban Going ‘House To House’ in Afghanistan ‘HANGING PEOPLE’ Who Worked With U.S.A.

Mass murder orchestrated by the Democrat party.

Taliban going ‘house to house’ in Afghanistan ‘hanging’ people who worked with US: source

Marine Sgt. Ryan Rogers says the interpreter he worked alongside in Marjah is now trapped in Kabul

By Michael Ruiz | Fox News AUGUST 20, 2021:

Fox News senior strategic analyst Gen. Jack Keane gives his take on the collapse of Afghanistan and bringing Americans home on ‘The Story’

As the U.S. military and State Department rush to evacuate American citizens and Afghan allies from Kabul’s airport, Taliban checkpoints are cutting off many from freedom and safety – and reports on the ground indicate the militants are summarily executing people who helped U.S. forces over the years.

Ryan Rogers, a retired Marine sergeant, told Fox News Thursday that the interpreter he worked with during the bloody 2010 battle of Marjah in Helmand province is currently trapped in Kabul, prevented from reaching the airport as Taliban fighters seek out and murder former Afghan commandoes and interpreters.

“He told me yesterday they hung three [Afghan National Army] commanders that they had found,” he said. “And that close to the place that he’s hiding, they’re going house-to-house and that they sent a transmission out saying they had plans for the people that operated with America.”

The interpreter, who is not being identified due to concerns about his safety, was OK as of Thursday afternoon.

“I said, hey, did you see any of this stuff with your eyes? He said yes,” Rogers said. “They’re not showing this stuff because the people are cheering, but they’re scared to death, and they’re hanging these people. And he said they’re going house to house and their priorities are Afghan National Army Special Forces, the police special forces and the interpreters.”

The Biden administration on Thursday finally acknowledged reports that evacuees were having trouble reaching the international airport and Kabul, which is surrounded by Taliban checkpoints.

TALIBAN FIRE AT AFGHANS CELEBRATING INDEPENDENCE DAY: LIVE UPDATES

State Department spokesman Ned Price said during a Thursday news briefing that the government had received a “small handful of reports” of American citizens who were unable to reach the airport. But he also said that though U.S. officials were aware of reports that interpreters and former Afghan military officers were being hunted and killed by the Taliban forces, he could not confirm their veracity.

“I’m just not in a position to confirm those details,” he said. “Every time we see a detail like this, we take it extraordinarily seriously, and we do what we can.”

TALIBAN CLAIMS IT’LL BE MORE MODERATE, BUT KILLINGS CONITNUE IN AFGHANISTAN

Over the past two weeks, as Taliban forces swept across the country, there were reports of the militants executing surrendering Afghan soldiers. And Fox News has received video showing gunmen in pickup trucks, firing bullets in the streets of Kabul.

“In a bipartisan fashion, there’s extreme disappointment, especially by those that have served,” Rep. Brad Wenstrup, an Ohio Republican and Army Reserve officer, told Fox News. “And we have lost on this our moral standing in the world, and it’s a sign of weakness rather than strength.”

Wenstrup pointed to bipartisan legislation passed months ago designed to lessen the red tape U.S. allies would need to get through to safely leave the country as the American military withdrew. But the rushed withdrawal left thousands of people stranded anyway.

“I find it hard to believe that our military and intelligence community would have recommended it this way,” he said, faulting the Biden administration’s leadership. “But those are some of the questions that we need to have answered.”

TALIBAN EXECUTIONS, BEHEADINGS IN AFGHANISTAN STRIKE FEAR AMONG THOSE STUCK INSIDE COUNTRY

Wenstrup, who served in the Army in Iraq, said he helped more than one interpreter relocate from there. One of them, now an American citizen and physician at Ohio State, called the Afghanistan situation “disheartening,” the congressman said.

But despite the chaotic U.S. withdrawal, Wenstrup had a message for veterans of the War on Terror.

“We have not had another attack in 20 years,” he said. “We must praise all those that have sacrificed so much in the last 20 years because they did keep us safe, and they should be applauded for that.”

And so did their coalition partners.

“I hope and pray that that interpreter, we find a way to get them out,” Wenstrup said. “My experience is if we get them here, they do everything right to become good U.S. citizens.”

The Pentagon sent thousands of additional troops to the airport this week to help with the evacuations, but defense officials stopped short of saying they would leave the base to rescue Americans or Afghan allies – even as UK paratroopers have been doing so to secure their own people.

Fox News also learned from a credible source Thursday that the State Department is looking into non-military ways to stage and move Americans and others who are in Kabul, as an alternative to sending troops into the city.

But Rogers worries that his interpreter friend could have just hours left if things go south.

(AP Photo/Rahmat Gul)

Rogers, who is originally from Ohio and now lives in North Carolina, was medically retired from the Marine Corps due to injuries sustained in Marjah. In April, he published a book on his experiences there – which featured the same interpreter trapped in Kabul today.

The interpreter told Rogers he tried to make it to the airport’s fortified east gate Wednesday – along with thousands of other people seeking to escape Taliban control. But he encountered Taliban checkpoints, heard gunshots and turned back.

“It was desperate,” Rogers said. “He said, ‘I have my pistol, and they’re never going to take me. There’s no way it can end like this. It can only end one way — glory be to God.’ I mean, he was scared.”

In response to President Biden’s claim in an ABC News interview that there was no way to leave Afghanistan without “chaos ensuing,” Rogers said the government could have come up with a plan to secure Americans and allies before the Taliban took Kabul.

“If somebody is going to help us for 20 years, and we’re going to make a bunch of promises to them, we need to fulfill those promises,” Rogers said. “And yesterday, it sounded like they weren’t going to go outside the airport. And that’s where a lot of those promises are hiding right now.”

Trump’s Saturday Rally to Be Biggest of 2021

By Newsmax, August 20, 2021

Donald Trump will hold what is expected to be the largest rally of his post presidency  Saturday.

Newsmax has learned the event at York Family Farms in Cullman, Alabama, will feature Trump delivering his most damning indictment of the Biden administration to date.

“Trump will be exposing President Biden’s Afghanistan disaster,” a knowledgeable source told Newsmax.

The outdoor rally will be hosted by the Alabama Republican Party and begin at 7 p.m. ET, with a crowd of at least 50,000 Trump supporters expected to show.

The former president is scheduled to take the stage at 8 p.m. ET.

Newsmax will broadcast the Trump rally live to over 100 million U.S. television homes.

Cullman is in Alabama’s District 4, Trump’s best congressional district in the U.S. in 2016 and 2020.

“Donald Trump and the people of Alabama have a special relationship,” Alabama Republican Party Chairman John Wahl told WAFF-TV.

“The energy out there, the enthusiasm, just how much people are looking forward to this — that really helps me feed off of that energy and get the job done as we’re working on this day and night to make this happen.”

For the safety of those attending, the GOP will distribute free masks and hand sanitizer to whoever wants them, although the masks are not required to enter.

Trump held his first post-presidency rally June 26 at the Lorain County Fairgrounds in Wellington, Ohio.

He followed that with a rally July 3 at the Sarasota Fairgrounds in Sarasota, Florida.

A third rally was staged July 24, at the Federal Theatre in Phoenix, Arizona.

Security at Saturday’s event is expected to be ultra-tight with local and state law enforcement officers and Secret Service agents on hand to direct motorists.

There has been ongoing speculation Trump is preparing to announce he will seek to oust Biden from office in 2024 and will soon announce his candidacy for president.

Last week, Sean Spicer, Trump’s former White House communications director and co-host of Newsmax‘s “Spicer & Co.” predicted Trump will throw his hat in the ring.

Fox News has declined airing Trump’s rallies live with Newsmax being the only major cable news channel to cover them.

Taliban Leaders Freely Used Twitter and Facebook’s WhatsApp as They Took Power in Afghanistan

According to Reuters,

“The Taliban’s rapid takeover of Afghanistan poses a new challenge for big U.S. tech companies on handling content created by a group considered to be terrorists by some world governments.”

The challenge really isn’t about “handling content” at all. The solution is simple: strip jihadists of their accounts. Instead, Twitter and Facebook are now waffling, even though they rapidly swing into censorship mode to crack down on the content of conservatives, including even the former President of the United States, Donald Trump.

It isn’t the first time Twitter rolled out the red carpet for bloodthirsty jihadists. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khameini celebrated jihad terror against Israel on Twitter.

Taliban soldiers are now going door to door forcibly marrying girls as young as 12, and forcing them into sex slavery, but to Facebook and Twitter, it’s a “content challenge” on whether or not to host the Taliban.

How do Facebook and Twitter now answer questions about their globalist, “progressive” bias in favor of the most barbaric human rights abusers, while continuing to crack down on and silence supporters of Judeo-Christian democracies, human rights defenders and truth-tellers? They have no answers, so they get their mainstream media cronies to minimize this serious issue for them, and buy time for them until the next news cycle.

To Facebook and Twitter, conservative truth-tellers are the “extremists” and “terrorists” (“Islamophobes,” too), not the Taliban, al-Qaeda, Iran or the Muslim Brotherhood.

WhatsApp shut down the Taliban’s helpline in Kabul. Much more must be done.

Taliban’s Afghanistan takeover presents fresh challenge for social media companies

by Elizabeth Culliford and Kanishka Singh, Reuters, August 16, 2021:

Aug 16 (Reuters) – The Taliban’s rapid takeover of Afghanistan poses a new challenge for big U.S. tech companies on handling content created by a group considered to be terrorists by some world governments.

Social media giant Facebook confirmed on Monday that it designates the Taliban a terrorist group and bans it and content supporting it from its platforms.

But Taliban members have reportedly continued to use Facebook’s end-to-end encrypted messaging service WhatsApp to communicate directly with Afghanis despite the company prohibiting it under rules against dangerous organizations.

A Facebook Inc (FB.O) spokesperson said the company was closely monitoring the situation in the country and that WhatsApp would take action on any accounts found to be linked with sanctioned organizations in Afghanistan, which could include account removal.

On Twitter Inc (TWTR.N), Taliban spokesmen with hundreds of thousands of followers have tweeted updates during the country’s takeover.

Asked about the Taliban’s use of the platform, the company pointed to its policies against violent organizations and hateful conduct but did not answer Reuters questions about how it makes its classifications. Twitter’s rules say it does not allow groups who promote terrorism or violence against civilians….

These include controversial blocks of former U.S. President Donald Trump for inciting violence around the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and bans on Myanmar’s military amid a coup in the country….

“Wait until the cameras go home. Wait until the West loses interest in Afghanistan. Now it’s a top story. But will it be a top story when no reporters are going to be allowed inside? And that’s when the Taliban is going to take over and really do whatever they wish to do to the women.”

Fall of the Roman Republic & The Fall of America’s Constitutional Republic — History Repeats Itself

Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” – George Santayana

Internal turmoil provoked in 133 BC by economic stagnation in the city of Rome , slave revolts without, and dissension in the military precipitated a period of unrelenting political upheaval known as the Roman Revolution, the Late Roman Republic , or the Fall of the Republic, 133-27 BC.


Why Did The Roman Republic Fall?

Was it due to external circumstances (barbarian invasion, famine, plague, etc.) or to internal ones?

American must now take notice or be condemned to repeating history.

Douglass Jacoby in a podcast lists the following as symptoms of a “sick Roman society”:

  • Mounting love of show and luxury.
  • Widening gap between the very rich and the very poor.
  • An increased desire to live off of the state.
  • Freakishness in the arts, masquerading as originality.
  • Absorption in entertainment.
  • Obsession with sex.

I would add to this list the following:

  • Godlessness and paganism.
  • Worshiping oneself and not a higher spiritual calling.
  • The indoctrination of a societies youth to believe that communism is better than capitalism.
  • A loathing of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
  • Judging people by the color of their skin rather than the content of their characters.
  • An obsession with the occult.
  • And finally – The Covid pandemic.

Covid and the Fall of the U.S. Constitutional Republic

Covid has become the primary means by which the state has taken away the rights of the individual to choose. Logic and science have been supplanted with fear. The following dictates have lead inextricably to a tyrannical state:

  • Mask mandates.
  • Shutdown of businesses.
  • Vaccine mandates.
  • Vaccine passports.

Government restrictions, using Covid as the weapon of choice, have now become the new normal in America. Government control of individual liberty, using healthcare as a means to the end of freedom of choice, is the real deadly virus.

Covid is control writ large.

The siren song of big government is “we’re here to protect you and your health by imposing un-Constitutional mandates upon you, your family, your business and your individual liberties.” We are here to protect you from yourself.

Conclusion

What happened to the ideal my body my choice?

Choice is key to any society, particularly when it comes to the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution.

Without the freedom of choice there is no republic. Choosing where one lives, how many children they have, where they go to school, the career they want, making decisions about their life, liberty and happiness are the bedrock of a free society.

Take any one of these choices away and you tear down the republic. It happened to Rome in 133-27 BC and it is happening right now in America in AD 2021.

I have lived thru four pandemics, including two under the Obama administration SARS and H1N1. Covid is a strain of SARS. I have never witnessed the massive media and government narratives designed to take away every American’s freedoms of choice. Never!

Prove me wrong.

Biden Tells Secretary Of Education To Use ‘Legal Actions’ Against Governors Banning Mask Mandates

DeSantis OBLITERATES Biden for Pushing Obsessive Mask Mandates while Afghanistan Falls.

In his recent address to the nation, President Biden did not focus on America’s humiliation in Afghanistan, or the humanitarian crisis at our Southern boarder. Instead, President Biden announced that he was directing the Secretary of Education to use ‘legal actions’ against Governor DeSantis, Governor Abbott, and others, who are banning mask mandates in schools. Biden then ran away after the speech, and refused to take any questions from the press. The Biden Administration is a total disaster. A nightmare.

The world is burning and Nero Joe is attacking American governors standing for American freedom.

Biden Tells Secretary Of Education To Use ‘Legal Actions’ Against Governors Banning Mask Mandates

By Daily Wire, August 18, 2021

President Joe Biden addressed the nation on the topic of the coronavirus on Wednesday, going a step further in his battle against specific Republican governors who have pushed back against mask mandates in schools.

Biden said, “For those who aren’t eligible for the vaccine yet — children under the age of 12 — masks are the best available protection for them and the adults around them. That’s why we need to make sure children are wearing masks in school.”

“Unfortunately, as we’ve seen throughout this pandemic, some politicians are trying to turn public safety measures — that is, children wearing masks in school — into political disputes for their own political gain. Some are even trying to take power away from local educators by banning masks in school. They’re setting a dangerous tone,” Biden added.

He went on to say, “Today, I am directing the Secretary of Education — an educator himself — to take additional steps to protect our children. This includes using all of his oversight authorities and legal actions, if appropriate, against governors who are trying to block and intimidate local school officials and educators.”

The Biden administration has been looking for ways to get further involved in states’ affairs, specifically taking aim at Florida and Texas where Republican Governors Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott, respectively, have signed executive orders banning mask mandates.

According to The Daily Wire, “Fox News  Saturday that U.S. Education Secretary Miguel Cardona wrote a letter to DeSantis and Florida Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran informing them that the federal government would provide funds to school districts that defy the governor’s order and risk losing state funding.”

“Florida’s recent actions to block school districts from voluntarily adopting science-based strategies for preventing the spread of COVID-19 that are aligned with the guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) puts students and staff at risk,” Cardona wrote.

“We are eager to partner with [the Florida Department of Education] on any efforts to further our shared goals of protecting the health and safety of students and educators,” Cardona added. “If FLDOE does not wish to pursue such an approach, the Department will continue to work directly with the school districts and educators that serve Florida’s students.”

Cardona sent a similar letter to Republican Governor of Texas Greg Abbott, saying that the Department of Education “stands with” the educators who are “working to safely reopen schools and maintain safe in-person instruction.”

Abbott has been in a legal battle with local districts that wish to defy his executive order banning mask mandates and impose their own restrictions on regions and schools.

Governors across the country are continuing to take steps to give parents the ability to make decision about their children’s health.

Republican Tennessee Governor Bill Lee signed an executive order Monday giving parents the ability to make decisions about whether their kids wear masks in schools.

He stated, “Right now, some of the greatest frustration is occurring in our K-12 schools, especially around the issue of mask mandates. While local decision-making is important, individual decision-making by a parent on issues regarding the health and well-being of their child is the most important.”

No one cares more about the health and well-being of a child than a parent. I am signing an executive order today that allows parents to opt their children out of a school mask mandate if either a school board or health board enacts one over a district,” he added.

His executive order says, “a student’s parent or guardian shall have the right to opt out of any order or requirement for a student in kindergarten through twelfth-grade to wear a face covering at school, on a school bus, or at school functions, by affirmatively notifying in writing the local education agency or personnel at the student’s school.”

Terror-Supporting Twitter Says Taliban Can Stay On Platform

But I am banned. And Trump is banned. Twitter is a terrorist organization.

Twitter says Taliban can stay on platform if they obey rules

By: Samuel Chamberlain, New York Post, August 17, 2021:

In a statement obtained by Mediaite Tuesday, Twitter ducked the question of whether it would bar representatives of the Islamic fundamentalist government from getting their message out 280 characters at a time — saying only that it would “continue to proactively enforce” its rules outlawing the “glorification of violence, platform manipulation and spam.”

“Twitter’s top priority is keeping people safe, and we remain vigilant,” the statement added.

Both official Taliban spokesmen have unverified accounts on Twitter. One, Zabihullah Mujahid, has more than 310,000 followers. His most recent tweet as of Tuesday afternoon promoted a press conference by Taliban leaders and drew hundreds of responses, many of them from well-wishers.

“Dear Zabihullah Mujahid Saib, First of all, I welcome you and then congratulate you on the complete liberation of Afghanistan,” read a typical message.

The other spokesman, Qari Yousaf Ahmadi, has more than 63,000 followers, and gained notoriety during the recent fighting for tweeting reports about the capture of various cities as the Taliban swept through the Afghan countryside.

Big Tech critics have expressed outrage over Twitter’s tolerance toward the Taliban after it banned Trump in the aftermath of the deadly Jan. 6 riot at the US Capitol. The company also recently suspended Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) after she questioned the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, but has permitted accounts affiliated with repressive governments like China and Iran to spread anti-American and anti-Israel propaganda.

“Why on God’s green Earth does the Taliban spokesman have an active Twitter account but not the former President of the United States?,” Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) tweeted Sunday. “Who’s [sic] side is the AMERICA BASED Big-Tech companies on?”

“Freedom and democracy are not doing well when #Twitter continues to ban #Trump’s account but relays the #Taliban spokesperson’s without any second thoughts,” agreed Jérôme Rivière, a member of the European Parliament representing France’s far-right National Rally party.

“The Taliban is sanctioned as a terrorist organization under US law and we have banned them from our services under our Dangerous Organization policies,” a Facebook spokesperson told CNBC.

A spokesperson for the encrypted chat app WhatsApp, which is also owned by Facebook, told Vice News that while “we do not have access to the contents of people’s personal chats; however, if we become aware that a sanctioned individual or organization may have a presence on WhatsApp, we take action.”

Google-owned YouTube vowed to CNN Tuesday that it would “terminate” any account it believes to be operated by the Afghan Taliban, while TikTok told CNBC it is removing content that supports or praises the militant group.

Twitter did not immediately respond to requests for comment by the Post.

Gay Afghan Author Warns: Taliban Will ‘Weed Out,’ ‘Exterminate’ LGBT Community

The practice of killing gays is alive and well in many Muslim countries. The penalty for homosexuality is death in Islam. See HERE. The Taliban will certainly implement the directives in these texts with the utmost barbarity. The LGBT+ community will have to hide for their lives. The Taliban has already vowed to “crush gay men to death by pushing walls onto them.”

While “progressives” have been busy castigating Israel and the West, while capitulating to Islamic supremacists, gays do not live in fear for their lives in Western countries or Israel, as those countries uphold human rights and equality. Leftist women’s rights and gay activists have a blind spot when it comes to Islam.

Taliban will ‘weed out and exterminate’ LGBT+ people in Afghanistan, warns exiled gay author

by Patrick Kelleher, Pink News, August 17, 2021:

Gay Afghan author Nemat Sadat has warned that the Taliban will “weed out and exterminate” the LGBT+ community in Afghanistan following their seismic takeover.

There has been significant concern for the safety and wellbeing of women, girls and LGBT+ people in Afghanistan after the extremist militant group seized power.

The Taliban is expected to enforce its extreme interpretation of Sharia law across Afghanistan, which would see many women, LGBT+ people persecuted. Under it, queer people and women could be sentenced to death.

Speaking to PinkNews, Sadat said there is “no telling” how bad the situation will become for LGBT+ Afghans stuck in the country under Taliban rule.

Sadat and his family left Afghanistan when he was still a baby and they ultimately settled in the United States. In 2012, he returned to his birth city of Kabul to work as a professor of political science at the American University of Afghanistan (AUAF).

Widespread anti-LGBT+ sentiment meant that it was impossible for him to settle there. Warlords spread rumours that he was a practicing homosexual. Sadat reacted to the rumours by advocating for LGBT+ rights on campus and in his classroom.

Shortly afterwards, the Taliban got involved. The extremist group wrote a manifesto claiming AUAF had “become a bastion of gays and lesbians” because of Sadat’s activism, adding that he should be “targeted and killed”…..
