Today’s Campaign Update, Part II (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
Everyone is talking about lunatic congressional freshmen women today, and none of it is good. That’s really nothing all that new, but when Democrats have reached the point where their members of congress are even being slammed on CNN of all places, you know they have a problem. Watch this clip:
Embedded video
Ryan Saavedra ✔ @RealSaavedra CNN's John King slams Rep. Rashida Tlaib's (D-MI) anti-Semitic remarks on the Holocaust: "Palestinian leaders at the time sided with Hitler"
In addition to their exploding antisemitism problem personified by Tlaib and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, the Democrats have obviously gotten some very bad polling data about their religion of Climate Change, and the insane “Green New Deal” being pushed by New York congressnitwit Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
That’s the only reasonable conclusion to reach when you see AOC issuing this tweet over the weekend:
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ✔ @AOC This is a technique of the GOP, to take dry humor + sarcasm literally and “fact check” it.
Like the “world ending in 12 years” thing, you’d have to have the social intelligence of a sea sponge to think it’s literal.
But the GOP is basically Dwight from The Office so who knows.
Max Kennerly ✔ @MaxKennerly I've seen criticism of "like 10 people." The ten richest Americans are worth $730 billion. The fourteen richest American families (excluding the Koch brothers, so no double-counting) are worth $511 billion. Together, they're worth more than 60% of Americans combined. https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1127270688925134849 …
But there is no doubt at all that the former Bronx bartender was dead serious when she issued this tweet in April:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ✔ @AOC Climate change is here + we’ve got a deadline: 12 years left to cut emissions in half.
A #GreenNewDeal is our plan for a world and a future worth fighting for.
How did we get here? What is at stake? And where are we going?
Please watch & share widely ⬇️
I’m sooooo serious, y’all! OMG!
So, what has changed in the four weeks since that tweet was sent? Well, we know that every decision Democrats make is based on focus groups and polling data, so the obvious answer is that the “Green New Deal” and its 12-year “deadline” (her word, not anyone else’s) is being panned by the voters. When the polling goes south on any issue being pushed by the Democrats, the talking points must change. Thus, what was a hard “deadline” on April 17 becomes “O.M.G., y’all! I was like totes kidding and stuff about that whole 12-year thing, or something!”
Let’s be painfully honest here: AOC has no clue what the word ‘sarcasm’ even means, would not know ‘dry humor’ if it snuck up and bit her on the, ummmm, ankle. Or something.
As for Tlaib and her latest despicably antisemitic remarks over the weekend, well, here they are in case you missed them:
“There’s always kind of a calming feeling I tell folks when I think of the Holocaust, and the tragedy of the Holocaust, and the fact that it was my ancestors — Palestinians — who lost their land and some lost their lives, their livelihood, their human dignity, their existence in many ways, have been wiped out, and some people’s passports. And just all of it was in the name of trying to create a safe haven for Jews, post-the Holocaust, post-the tragedy and the horrific persecution of Jews across the world at that time. And I love the fact that it was my ancestors that provided that, right, in many ways. But they did it in a way that took their human dignity away and it was forced on them.”
So, here’s a woman who gets a “calming feeling” when she thinks about an event in history in which more than 6 million Jews were exterminated by the Nazis and their collaborators. Oh, and their collaborators included the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Muhammad Amin al-Husayni, who happened to be the leader of the loosely-allied Arabs in the Middle East who called themselves “Palestinians.”
There was no effort on the part of Tlaib’s “ancestors” to “create a safe haven for Jews” during this period of time. In fact, Jewish people had begun migrating back into the region in the early 1880s, and of course have a long history in that part of world dating back thousands of years.
In fact, the Arab world – including the “Palestinians” in the region – rabidly opposed the creation of a Jewish state after World War II had ended, and refused to cooperate with it in any way. In 1964, these “Palestinians” – created the Palestinian Liberation Army and began conducting terror attacks on Jewish citizens in Israel.
The first leader of the PLO was a Lebanese national named Ahmad Shukeiri. In 1969, the PLO chose as its leader an Egyptian national, Yassir Arafat, not for his peaceful intentions but for his skills in conducting terrorist warfare. In 2006, Palestinians elected to be ruled by the terrorist organization known as Hamas, which still rules them today.
These are not “peaceful” people who voluntarily gave up land or anything else to “help” post-war Jews. That “calming feeling” Tlaib experiences when contemplating the barbaric deaths of 6 million Jews is based on a politically-motivated myth.
But Tlaib, along with AOC and fellow raging anti-Semite Ilhan Omar, are the new, ugly faces of today’s Democrat Party. And it seems that no matter what they say, no matter how repugnant their public declarations become, Nancy Pelosi will do nothing to discipline them.
Why? Simple: The repugnant, ugly, fantasy-based views they express are in fact mainstream thought in today’s Democrat Party. The reality is that these freshmen women are killing the Democrat Party not because of the insane things they believe, but because they so bluntly and frequently express them in public.
If you are Jewish and you vote for these people, you do so at your own peril. Then again, that holds true for all of us, and has for a long time now.
That is all.

It’s the identity politics that are killing the party. The smaller mutual bribes made to each other for a common purpose is not enough any more to keep it all together.
The lunatic is in the hall...
The super drunk girls at the party that wind up making a big scene.
Future crazy cat ladies of America.
Shhhh! Don’t stop them.
Lunatic Fringe....I know you’re out there.....
I wasn’t trying to STOP them....
They are just too entertaining where they are, and they have NO idea what a wrecking ball they are for the Democrat party.
the D party under SorozNazi financial influence/control
has been viciously anti-USA, anti-Christian, and anti-Jewish ....since he took it over in about 2006 or so
.....
Obama! (what more need be said!)
the Democrap jeers at the American National Anthem at the DNC convention
the Democrap refusal to reaffirm our alliance with Israel at the DNC convention
the Democrap boycotting of even showing the courtesy of receiving, hearing from Prime Minister Bibi...
and now Pelosi’s SEATING these evil big mouths in our Congress (Congress did NOT have to seat them!) and her putting the enemy agent on the foreign relations committee (where now the IslamoNazis all around the world will probably have access to major USA defense and diplomatic secrets).....and Pelosi’s continued refusal or failure to move to expel her
the D party has been bought, sold, and sold-out to enemies of America
it is vital, imho, to the future of USA that the D party machine be RID of its Swamp Alligators...Drain the DNC swamp!!!! Let the regular liberals have their party back..and we can then debate and hopefully beat them in honest elections
ALL LIBS are lunatics . ..it is only a matter of degree . Observing them is the 1890’s when people paid to observe the lunatics in mental asylums for entertainment . Only now, in a sense, it is free. Ridicule a LIB each and every day.
The lunatic is on the grass...
yes, the
“lunatic” frosh women are destroying the D party, but it is Pelousy that is protecting and enabling them (and Pelousy works for Soroznazi’s DNC imho)
the DNC needs to have its evil Swamp Drained, ASAP....
we can deal with an honestly “liberal” or even an honestly “left-leaning” party in USA! We can’t deal with a “lunatic” communist=Nazified political “movement” seeking to complete the imposition of dictatorial powers over us.. that Obama started and HilLIARY was supposed to, programmed to complete
Exactly! Never interrupt the enemy when he’s busy destroying himself...
Faster Please.
It isn’t hard to figure out what took the establishment Dems so long to take umbrage: they waited to see how it was polling. Not well. In the meantime, however, the shriekers and their media enablers have a toehold on a veto on the 2020 Presidential candidate. If it matters to their constituents that they haven’t actually accomplished anything but getting famous, then they’ll be gone, but what’s worrying the establishment is that it might not. Celebrity has, sadly, become an end unto itself.
Do the Freshmen now make the Pelosis and 15 women now running for President sane and respectable by comparison?
Is AOC the new Sister Souljah?
Killing is a harsh word. Maybe decaying, like garbage does.
So? Why do we care? Destroy away I say!
Thank you, Lunatic Freshmen Women!
