This woman's inane ramblings repeat a common phenomenon on the left: today's Republican is always portrayed as a betrayer of the respectable Republicans of the past. Today's Republican is always the new fascist, the new Hitler, and the new menace, compared to which the Republicans of yesteryear are portrayed as paragons of decency and restraint.

But in their day, yesterday's Republicans were also portrayed as the new fascist and the new menace. So, now we see the left doing its Reagan revisionism. All of a sudden, Ronald Ray Gun - who the left portrayed as a dangerous right-wing dunce when he was president - is now held up as the gold standard of Republican governance.

It is actually Joe Biden who has been giving the angry, dark speeches, spewing spittle and bathed in eerie red light.

I really do not believe that the Jesus who said,” Go and teach all nations.”, and whose disciples went to Hispania, Asia Minor, Greece, Rome and as far as India really was expressing Christian nationalism.

Yes, thank you.
Also, besides the 100 million murdered in Russia and China by the communists, how about the 60 million innocents killed by democrats here in America by the abortionists in the last 50 years?
Anything on that?
Is that dark enough?

If you remember back to the start of his campaign there was yet a time before he was a non-christian christian nationalist.

At that time there were rumors that his family name was “Drumpf” which was “clearly Jewsish”. According to those stories his family had changed their name to keep everyone from knowing and you were about to vote for the stealth Jew and turn over the country to his children.

That was just shortly before he “became a nazi”.

Apparently it must have been a couple of hectic weeks at the tower.

Ill bet his recent conversion was due to the Haugeans. If the Secret Service slipped up just once when they tried to slip some fenalar into a sandwich...

BOOM!

...Lutheran overnight.

She asserts this opinion of Trump with no proof whatsoever. In fact, her words deny what is right in front of our faces, such as the Dem’s replacement tactic going on at the border.

I totally agree on the CIA, since the early 1950’s they have helped overthrow over 70 governments worldwide.

In their original charter the CIA was not supposed to engage in Covert Operations, their job to collate and analyze all data from our Intelligence services, at the time we had 17. This information was to be given to the NSC and from that a report produced for the President on a daily basis. The CIA was totally accountable to the NSC and the President.

Allan Dulles and his brother John Foster Dulles were able to get President Truman to issue a NSC directive to let the CIA engage in Covert Ops and that was the point where the CIA become an out of control rouge agency and has been ever since. Allan Dulles laid the framework and was CIA director for over 10 years, longest ever tenure.

What’s wrong with being a Christian and a nationalist?

Diane Winston needs to spend sometime in the Shitholes of Democrat run cities.

Thanks for the background. Now I understand why my dad didn’t like Truman. Actually, I’m sure it had to do something with him being on the front lines in Korea, but this just provides more context.

So the CIA got ridiculous as Eisenhower was POTUS, and by the time JFK was in there he realized they needed to be stopped so they killed him.

Lovely.

Not.

Tucker Carlson talked about a recording of Nixon telling the CIA head at the time that he knew why JFK was killed. The guy said nothing in response.

He also mentioned the involvement of the Navy and CIA in getting rid of Nixon.

When JFK was killed the CIA should have been taken out, like the first white-headed dandelions. Now the whole dang lawn is covered in dandelions that have smothered every other living thing.

It’s time for Roundup. Or like the Indians, dump boiling water on the whole place.
