God bless the stupidity of the far left. In an effort to prove to America that the Democratic Party is actually the one that knows how to best govern, party leaders and protesters alike turned last week's Supreme Court confirmation hearings into a clown show resulting in fake news , theatrics , and more than 200 'resistance' left-wing protesters being arrested by Capitol police.
According to NPR , "At least 227 demonstrators were arrested between the start of the nomination hearings on Tuesday and the end of testimony on Friday, according to the U.S. Capitol Police. Most of those charged this week with disorderly conduct, crowding or obstructing paid fines of $35 or $50."
In fact, it took just two minutes into the hearings before a protester was kicked out for disruptions. But, according to Linda Sarsour, this was all part of their plan.
"Disrupting the hearings was a way for us to go directly into the homes of the American people to say, 'We will not be silenced and you need to be as outraged as we are,'" Sarsour, a co-chair of the Women's March, told NPR.
This is an interesting strategy because there is nothing that tells the American people the adults are in the room quite like Code Pink folks and washed up Occupy Wall Street rejects throwing temper tantrums on Capitol Hill. (sarcasm)
It actually proved the opposite. Even Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) condemned the protests. "I think that the average independent voter — the labor family that voted for Trump last time but is now reconsidering — people like that don't think that screaming in a hearing room is a particularly effective strategy or a signal of a party that they much want to belong to," Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., told NPR's Audie Cornish. "So I think it's been not helpful to any cause that I can see."
The silliness of the left during Kavanaugh's hearing displayed, once again, that the progressives in the Democratic Party are asinine and willing to scream, and shout, and let it all out rather than communicate like adults if they do not get their way. But, as an added bonus, President Barack Obama decided to rev up his fall lecture series and remind conservatives how dismal of a president he really was. Hopefully, last week's actions by the left were enough to motivate the GOP base to mobilize the vote to retain the house and keep these jackwagons on the left out of power for as long as possible.
Didn’t know that, you’re certainly right. :)
We have several ‘RESIST’ banners flying on front doors in our neighborhood. I’m the only one flying the American flag.
I have a yard sign I made: ‘America IS great again. Let’s keep it that way’. My question is, are they resisting America being great again? Are they resisting lower taxes, 3 1/2 percent unemployment, more blacks being employed since the days of slavery, more Latinos being employed in history, more women being employed for decades, ISIS be wiped out and peace negotiations with North Korea?
You watch. No fine or very little and no jail time. And I bet all fines if imposed will be paid by the Communists Democrats.
I should have made that clear. Marxist theory is that wealth keeps getting concentrated in smaller and smaller numbers of people.
In a limited government society such as ours, that does not happen. Some get richer, some get poorer. Finding a way to satisfy the needs of the market is an excellent way to become rich in a capitalist society.
Zina Bash, who worked in the Trump White House as a special assistant on regulatory reform and legal and immigration policy, works as a senior counsel for Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R).
“Zina is Mexican on her mother’s side and Jewish on her father’s side. She was born in Mexico,” her husband wrote. “Her grandparents were Holocaust survivors. We of course have nothing to do with hate groups, which aim to terrorize and demean other people — never have and never would.”
With Kavanaugh, it should be 5-4 and RBG would be irrelevant. (Personally, I thought RBG would buy the farm before Kavanaugh was confirmed.) Bryer should be the next to go. It should be 7-2 before Trump leaves office.
I have stupid friends, too.
Thanks, my friend!
welcome
“At least 227 demonstrators were arrested between the start of the nomination hearings on Tuesday and the end of testimony on Friday, according to the U.S. Capitol Police. Most of those charged this week with disorderly conduct, crowding or obstructing paid fines of $35 or $50.”
Soros and Steyer got a bargain. That Indian creep that was handing out cash in the ticket line probably took most of it home.
“Otherwise the first generation makes the money, the second generation keeps the money, and the third generation spends the money. It is happening with the Kennedys. It happens with most wealthy families. Only a few families manage to keep wealth for more than three generations. “
I’ll believe it about the Kennedy’s when they start selling off Hyannisport. But more importantly, I want to see the Sultzbergers (NYSlimes) go home in a barrel. Better still, one of their trust fund babies get’s pi$$ed off about being poor and does in Pinch.
This happened:
I think it's a dude though.
Who paid the fines?
If a Soros or Clinton entity paid each one of those professional seditionists $500 it was money well spent by the Enemies Domestic.
Now, had the fines been proportional to the damage done to the Republic, say $10,000 each, it would still be a pittance in the larger scope of things.
Most of those charged this week with disorderly conduct, crowding or obstructing paid fines of $35 or $50."
Should it be necessary for 10,000 American patriots to show up and have a pitched battle with the enemies of the State to illustrate this degeneration of "peaceful protests" or the new form of "Freedom of Speech?"
It would be a bargain to spend the cost of 227 bullets, or 22,700, a more permanent solution; not by mercenaries of the government, but by Minutemen II Patriots.
I may have lived long enough to participate, if it comes to that.
Only the illegal criminal invader aliens and their bastards, and the President has 60,000,000 citizens backing him up.
I’ll bet that cost the lil’ Fuehrer, Georgie Soros some big bucks.
Are Democrats MEAN because they are UGLY.....or are they UGLY because they are MEAN??? Which came first?

Once one gets the “Trailer Park Trash Syndrome” (decides that dignity and decency have no value in their lives) in one’s bones, one loses all shame and makes pathetic and pitiable attempts to be noticed....
AMEN, AMEN, and AMEN!!!
Shout it from the rooftops, people!
Well said, tet68
