Alinsky-ite Tactics, Double Standards, Mueller/Comey, More Trump Derangement Syndrome & True Border Crisis



6/1/19
More double standard, pot calling the kettle black, a “special exonerator,” and “cultural imperialism.” 
Dems, Brennan, Clapper etc. think it an outrage that Trump may legally declassify some of their work related to Spygate, but they’re all for illegally declassifying redacted portions of the Mueller report.  If they want openness, let’s have bipartisan openness.
Media commentators etc. are criticizing Trump for supposedly being soft on or championing despots, or siding with them on Biden’s IQ.  As Levin points out, his actions have been much stronger against Cuba, Russia, China, Iran, N. Korea & Venezuela than Obama, who of course got no criticism from them, but only praise.  Obama put a U.S. embassy in Havana & opened trade/travel, whispered to Medvedev “tell Vlad I’ll have more flexibility after the election” & did little or nothing after Russia invaded Ukraine, he did little to nothing about China’s trade thefts & S. China Sea islands invasion, flew $150B in cash in the middle of the night to Iran & agreed to a terrible nuclear deal with them, did nothing in response to N. Korea nuclear & missile tests, and nothing about Venezuela’s Maduro stealing of an election and oppressions. 
Trump, on the other hand, revoked the Iran nuclear deal & ratcheted up sanctions, strengthened NATO against Russia & sent arms to Ukraine, has stood up to China’s practices with tariffs and warnings, got tougher with Cuba (& moved the embassy in Israel to Jerusalem), has been much tougher w. N. Korea (w. no nuclear or long range missile tests), vocally supports the legitimately elected Venezuelan president & threatens more actions, sending carriers and bombers to the Middle East in response to Iran provocations, etc.  He was criticized for being too harsh w. Kim Jong Un (e.g., “Rocket Man,”), and now is criticized for being too soft/cozy.  These critics apparently have never heard of the carrot and stick, or good cop/bad cop approach, speaking softly but carrying a big stick, or nuances of negotiations – also relevant to tariffs.  No, they can’t see past their next story or appearance on CNN, MSNBC, etc., nor do they see their inconsistencies.
Mueller is in the same mold as his old buddy Comey, with his little press conference.  He seemed to think his job title was “special exonerator,” not “special prosecutor.”  And he couldn’t even do that job, in his own words not being able to exonerate (or find prosecutable offense) the president from wrongdoing.  He says he didn’t want to go beyond the written report, but he did, in giving his Democrat audience some red meat hope and encouragement to find something impeachable, though he himself could not.  And he was misleading or even lying saying that he couldn’t indict because of OLC precedent – Barr had specifically asked him if that was his reason for not making a recommendation, and he said no.  No wonder he doesn’t want to testify before Congress, for fear of cross-examination by Republicans.  If we want equal justice under the law, he shouldn’t be above a process crime that he got several Trump associates for.
Interesting to see more conservative, nationalist (or anti-globalist) election victories around the world recently.  Including the UK 6-week-old Brexit party and several others.  The condescending, self-righteous elites are branding them as “know-nothings” and fascists, fearing resurgence of WWII precursors, as Germany’s Merkel said explicitly.  No, they know all too well from the failed policies of the globalists – it’s the globalists who are in denial, and blind.  And on the wrong side of history. 
I liked the WSJ’s use of a term – “cultural imperialism” – to describe the Left’s aggressiveness for its various pet causes like abortion, identity politics (including sexual), socialism, climate policy, etc.  This includes corporate – like Gillette’s transgender ad, Disney Co.’s stance on abortion states, Burger King, etc.  It’s OK for them to make open advocacy associated with their brands, but if owners of Chick Fillet or such have views that are only privately expressed, well, they must be boycotted and destroyed. And they are every bit as imperialistic as they accuse the U.S. of being.  Again, projection – the U.S. has not appropriated (or continued to attempt to) foreign resources or land or control from conquest, unlike Russia, China, Iran, etc. who are in the business of it, and exporting terrorism and revolution and influence.  But they’ve been very successful in brainwashing the college-educated (& even earlier) & immigrants like Ilhan Omar how terribly imperialist the U.S. has been, ignoring the facts. 
The Left’s Alinskyite tactics have long been Orwellian disinformation and projection. And the art of the “shake-down” – making corporations (& Hollywood & university & media elite) feel guilty for being the 1% and greedy profiteers – causing them to relieve pressure & salve their consciences by throwing their public support for the Left’s causes, clamoring to outdo each other to show that support. Classic Alinsky “Rules for Radicals” tactics that he learned from the mafia. Pathetic “useful idiots.” As Prager points out, corporations are truly amoral – if not immoral. They’re not largely conservative, as the Left would have you believe.

After coming up short in the Mueller investigation, the media/Dems/Left are truly pathetic and desperate in how far they’ll go to find something – anything – to harp on Trump about.  Like dredging up decades-old news that Trump’s businesses at one point had $1 billion in losses.  Trump long ago publicly acknowledged this, when he touted his strong comeback.  Which is especially relevant to our national comeback today.  When you have large amounts of capital, you can have proportionately large ups and downs.  Capitalism, and especially real estate/construction, entails risks and downsides, along with the upsides.  Of course socialists don’t like that – they want no losses, and guaranteed gains.  But that guarantees only low gains or disasters like Venezuela, Cuba, USSR, etc.  They only produce dramatically deeper debt themselves, as Obama’s doubling of the national debt to $10 trillion – dwarfing $1 billion.  They considered that an investment – higher risk than Trump’s.  They are much better at spending the wealth generated by capitalism than generating any.
Other minutia they want to blow up into a “constitutional crisis” includes Barr not going back for further interrogation or releasing (illegally) the full unredacted Mueller report (though it’s available to them in a classified facility).  They manufacture these little “crises” for political purposes, and to distract from or torpedo Barr’s investigation of the legitimacy of Spygate.  Anything that threatens their power, or ability to resist Trump, is in their minds a constitutional crisis.  But when Attorney General Holder was found in contempt of Congress for lying & withholding requested documents, their outrage was nowhere to be found, and nothing ever came of it.  Double standards are the only standards they are able to live up to.  They can’t take no for an answer, and so going into the 2020 election pursue relentless subpoenas and investigations to try to keep their base animated, and hoping that a never-ending fishing expedition will turn something prosecutable up – just like the Mueller witch hunt.  And anyone in their base who swallows their fake news and artificial outrage is just plain gullible and blinded by hate.

Now they criticize Trump of taking us to war with Iran.  They want to draw analogies with the Iraq War (still falsely claiming Bush lied about intelligence there).  Trump has consistently spoken of keeping us out of foreign engagements, and withdrawn forces – some think even prematurely.  Critics don’t have access to the intelligence the administration has, and just assume there is none.  Though those in the know say it is substantial and specific and actionable.  And there is further public evidence with the attacks this past week on 4 Saudi, UAE & Norwegian oil tankers, and Saudi oil pipelines, some likely by Iranian proxies, which Iran typically uses for deniability.  

No, they want to continue illegal side talks with Iran using John Kerry (who should be prosecuted for it), and revive the disastrous Obama Iran deal.  For them, it’s “peace at any price,” taking no lessons from history on the efficaciousness of that approach.  No, terrorists, and terrorist states, only understand strength, and the only way of achieving peace with them, if at all possible, is by “peace through strength.”  And it’s the only thing that’s brought N. Korea to the bargaining table.  And the approach that brought down the Soviet Union.  And the approach that has finally got the Chinese squirming – even Chuck Schumer admits Trump’s instincts are right on finally getting tough with them.  And now that the Empire (China) has struck back, we’ll have to keep the rebel alliance together.
And whenever illegal immigrants are caught and released into interior states and cities, they scream bloody murder that they can’t accommodate them.  No, they unfairly expect the already over-saturated border areas to continue to absorb them.  They act as if it’s a crisis if it directly impacts them, but simply will not acknowledge it’s a crisis for anyone else in the country already impacted, or the migrants themselves.  Or be willing to do anything at all to stem the tide.  They can’t admit they’re wrong, after having proclaimed so vehemently that the border crisis is merely a fictional fabrication or manufacture by Trump.  This cognitive dissonance is just remarkable.  There’ve already been 500,000 illegals who have entered (that we know about – and likely more) in the 4 ½ months of 2019, meaning over 1 million per year.  Where are they expected to go?  There aren’t facilities enough at the borders to keep them, and they can’t be legally detained for more than 20 days per existing laws (3 days for children), which is insufficient time to adjudicate them at that rate and with the existing backlog.  If the Dems won’t help come up with a solution to stem the tide, then they’ll have to accommodate the overwhelmed communities.  Otherwise they’re living in a progressive fantasyland.  They just don't like living with the consequences of their bad choices -- a typically juvenile mindset.

The Dems & media giddily report and gloat over any who they’ve successfully intimidated to withdraw their names from nomination for positions.  Like 2 recent Federal Reserve board nominees, Stephen Moore & Herman Cain.  Or their harassment of Kirsten Nielsen out of office.  That is their strategy of resistanc -- if they can’t get at Trump directly, they’re going after everyone around him – his family, his cabinet, or other positions (e.g., Supreme Court nominees), no matter how qualified and upstanding.  They attacked and hounded via the Mueller investigation, at restaurants (following the marching orders of Maxine Waters, et al), courts, media,…  They care less about having capable people in office to run our government than undercutting Trump -- they hate Trump more than they love this country.
They’re basically character assassins or terrorists, following the Leftist Alinsky/Leninist bible, “Rules for Radicals.”  They are often faceless cowards like masked Antifa making threats and digging up any dirt they can find, that people with morals would be embarrassed about, even if untrue.  They take advantage of the higher morals of the GOP, though they don’t apply the same standards to themselves, and are certainly not on the moral higher ground themselves, or worthy of passing judgment.  No, their purpose is political, and the ends justifies the means to them.  They can’t seem to win the contest in the arena of ideas and debate, so choose to fight dirty and make personal attacks, as if they themselves were above reproach.  They find the slightest flaw and magnify it out of all proportion, but gloss over the massive evils in the world perpetrated by the Left, tyrants, socialist & Communist states, radical/terrorist groups, etc.  As Christ said, “Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.” (Matth. 23:24)
 
Dennis Prager rightly described, in his Rational Bible volume on Exodus, how the stealing of one’s good name and reputation is not only a theft in the 10 commandments, but also effectively a murder – ruining their life, and often livelihood.  And they claim the moral high ground?  They bear false witness all the time when they accuse many of their political opponents of racism, etc., when they twist and misinterpret their words, despite their original meaning being so obviously unlike their slander.  Truth is not a Leftist value. 
As I’ve said before, well do they fulfill the prophecies that:
“… in the last days perilous times shall come.  For men shall be … false accusers, …fierce, despisers of those that are good,…” (2 Tim. 3:1-3)
And in that day … the scorner is consumed …That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought.” (Isaiah 29:18-21)  Reminds me of Media Matters.

They also wield “weapons of mass distraction” in the media to divert the electorate’s attention from the much good that Trump and many of those working for him or nominated have done and are doing.  The media have become by and large the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party, just as the KKK was, and Antifa is, the militant arm.  The media suppresses the full story and hearing of both sides just as Antifa. They are not really for a free and open press, though they frequently scream about the 1st amendment when they themselves are criticized. And their biased coverage is a journalistic farce. Fortunately, at least until the 2016 election, the electorate is not blinded by them -- they are not as stupid as the elites take them. And hopefully Trumps actions will speak louder than their misleading words.

For any FaceBook monitors, I am denouncing and not promoting this hate speech. Let's see if you do, too.   This is the next generation of terrorists who will murder us and our allies.

Shocking footage of children in a Philadelphia Islamic center has emerged that shows them saying that they would "chop off...heads" for Allah.



So, the Dems calling on Barr to resign over nothing sounds like they're obstructing justice, now that Barr is beginning to investigate the genesis of Spygate, the Russian Dossier-based FISA warrant, unequal justice for Hillary, etc. So they should all resign. Here are links to two good articles about the whole "nothingburger," including one by an honest/objective progressive.
They have given up on collusion or any real crime, and now, just as Mueller did to prosecute several, they've turned to process crimes -- trying to catch people in some inconsistency in their testimony, which if you grill people long enough you can often come up with. And in the case of Trump, there was no underlying crime to obstruct (no collusion), he never stopped the Mueller investigation, but only complained bitterly publicly about the witch hunt, knowing he was innocent, and that Mueller & his cronies were Democrat mercenaries, and to counter the overwhelmingly biased mainstream media.
