I am sure we will hear this in the MSM   :roll:

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/03/07/david-duke-calls-ilhan-omar-most-important-member-of-the-us-congress/

Now we know the Democrats are protecting friends of David Duke who I guess hates Jews more the Muslims and Blacks.

Keith Ellison; Perez; Farrakhan; Ocasio & that ilk, Omar rips Obama
« Reply #104 on: March 08, 2019, 04:11:53 PM »
We are still getting to know Rep. Omar but looks like she and the lady from Detroit might fit in this thread.

It's hard to believe this war within the Democrat Party has escalated this quickly; I guess they got from their elders didn't real sink in.

Omar: “caging of kids” at the Mexican border and the “droning of countries around the world” on Obama’s watch — and argued that he wasn’t much different from President Trump

Doug:  When Obama was President and we were making drone strikes inside Afghan, Pak, Yemen, etc. and I knew that if Barack Obama was not President he would be leading the opposition to that policy.  Obviously his top military and security advisers were telling him this was necessary and he was reluctantly going along with it. (Critics can't stand that Trump does not do what his military advisers say).  All other peace-nik liberals were hating this Obama policy too but there was a speech code; if Obama was doing it, we don't speak out.  Now Omar is saying what none of them would say for almost 10 years.  Shocking but guess what?  A whole bunch of liberals feel exactly the same way.  Obama was the #1 most liberal member of the Senate.  Not good enough, this group is off his deep end.  The Dem war has begun.  Will the same side of the Dem party primary these people or is this the new direction of the party?g
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The New York Post reports:

Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar ripped former President Barack Obama in an interview published Friday, belittling his “pretty face” and saying his agenda of hope and change was an illusion.

She cited the “caging of kids” at the Mexican border and the “droning of countries around the world” on Obama’s watch — and argued that he wasn’t much different from President Trump

“We can’t be only upset with Trump,” the freshman firebrand told Politico Magazine.

“His policies are bad, but many of the people who came before him also had really bad policies. They just were more polished than he was,” Omar said.

“And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We don’t want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. We want to recognize the actual policies that are behind the pretty face and the smile.

I guess we won't know who will win the DEm war till'20.
sadly we will see AOC long after I am deceased (oxymoron)
  with her safe district

unless dems can find someone less idiotic
 that could win over the minorities

it seems to me whether it is the communists or the socialists who win they are dead set on wiping out all Republicans

Ocasio, 4 year old adult?
« Reply #109 on: March 13, 2019, 10:25:59 AM »
There is a new study that concludes the human brain isn't fully formed until age 25, if true, making Ocasio-Cortez a 4 year old adult. Her questions in Maxine Waters' circus committee made me think of that.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/44599/ocasio-cortez-melts-down-amid-mockery-her-wells-james-barrett

Consider this:
1. Pipelines are FAR safer than all the alternatives ways for moving the fuels we use pumped through them.

2. Ambulances, Fire Trucks and Police vehicles use fossil fuels for propulsion.  Also, for the most part, the American economy.  A first-world factory doesn't shut production down when the sun and wind go down.  Separating her future ideals from the current question of how to move gas and oil, is she against emergency services, driving to work, employment and production? 

3.  What fuel do they use to deliver solar panels and wind turbines??  You can't have a renewable fuel revolution without fossil fuels.  Do the math before opening the mouth - or do they teach that at Boston University economics.

4. Pipelines connect refineries to airports and she is a major user of air travel [and SUVs, limousines].  What is the difference between her financial and power-based tie to fossil fuels and theirs. 

5.  Fossil fuels heat her office and her home.  Without them, all other things equal, she would be dead - along with everyone else in the north and northeast.

6. Oil and gas are cleaner and safer than coal.  Block oil and gas and you use more coal.  Do the math. THAT INCREASES CARBON EMISSIONS!

7.  Solar and wind don't work when the sun and wind go down and we aren't heading back our lifestyles to the pre-Edison days.  Or put all that on the ballot and we will vote it up or down. She got 15,000 votes in a primary, was not elected dictator.  Invent the right solution and run it through the constitutional process before eliminating what we use now - via the Finance Committee.

In a way she obviously helps the right.  We have been trying to paint them as idiots and socialists (because they are) and she and Bernie and a number of others walk right into it.

OTOH, she gives voice and twisted logic to those on the Left who relate to her ideas.  So while she energizes the right, she energizes the left too, moves them further left, widening the divide in the country but clarifying what we are divided about.

We wish to amplify the craziest of the voices on the Left to prove their craziness but be careful what we wish for.  That strategy didn't work out so well 2006-2016.

Re: Beck: On CAIR and Ilhan Omar

Haven't had a chance to watch this yet, but looks promising:
https://www.theblaze.com/glenn-tv/compelling-evidence-supports-claims-that-ilhan-omar-committed-immigration-fraud?utm_content=buffer0add7&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=theblaze&fbclid=IwAR0BimfrUN_qDt4W5_aXmcgQgvXoFpzTeEeXpkSJ4txkS1pibAxLSp5qLHI

The married her brother to commit immigration fraud story is true.  The perjury charge is true.  Her ties to these terror related groups are true.  Her defense of terror convicts is true.  Regarding campaign finance violations, those laws don't apply to a Muslim woman.  Felonies, lies and charges of hypocrisy are anti-Muslim hate if you point them at the sweet Rep. Ilhan Omar.

According to the New York Post, Ocasio-Cortez STILL owes $1,877.56 in unpaid corporate taxes.

AOC's failed business, Brook Avenue Press, started in 2012, eventually dissolved in October 2016... failed to pay corporate taxes or file a tax return.

The business was designed to profit off of inner city kids.

Alexandria Ocasio Chavez, dumb, ignorant or both?
« Reply #123 on: April 04, 2019, 06:57:15 AM »
Latest flub is this quote: 

the New Deal was so popular that Republicans “had to amend the Constitution of the United States to make sure Roosevelt did not get reelected.” In fact, the GOP-controlled Congress introduced and passed a constitutional amendment limiting presidents to two terms in 1947 — two years after Roosevelt died in office.
https://www.factcheck.org/2019/04/ocasio-cortez-gets-fdr-history-lesson-wrong/

But they have the quote wrong by omission.  Look at the longer quote:

"But I think there’s a couple of lessons. One is that, when we look into our history, when our [Democratic] party was boldest — the time of the New Deal, the Great Society, the Civil Rights Act and so on — we had and carried supermajorities in the House, in the Senate, we carried the presidency. They had to amend the Constitution of the United States to make sure Roosevelt did not get re-elected. And there were so many extraordinary things that were happening in that time that were uniting working people, and so that, I think, is one of the encouraging lessons "
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/aoc-fdr-amendment/


Civil Rights Act was 1964.  Majority of Republicans voted for it; majority of Dems voted against it.  Stubborn facts.

Larger point and I realize she is not great at elementary school math or high school level civics, but if Democrats had super-majorities everywhere, how did Republicans in the minority pass a constitutional amendment that requires 2/3rds majority of the House, 2/3rds majority of the Senate and 3/4ths majority of the state legislators??

No one called her out on that.  They were just correcting the dates.  Her point is that  Democrats governed so well when they had big majorities and turned to the far Left that the Republicans in the minority passed a constitutional amendment to stop them.  How do political minorities pass constitutional amendments?  Political minorities have certain rights and powers under our constitution, passing amendments without widespread support isn't one of them.

Re: Did Ilhan Omar marry her brother for immigration fraud?

TGR is not always a reliable source, but , , ,
https://gellerreport.com/2019/04/official-high-school-records-confirm-jihad-rep-ilhan-omar-married-her-own-brother.html/

It is true and there are good sources:
On the forum since before her election to Congress:
https://dogbrothers.com/phpBB2/index.php?topic=1273.msg113494#msg113494

“Address Records Show Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) Still Lived With Her (divorced) First Husband Throughout Marriage To Her Apparent Brother.”

https://pjmedia.com/davidsteinberg/address-records-show-rep-ilhan-omar-d-mn-still-lived-with-her-first-husband-throughout-her-second-marriage/
https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2018/10/ilhan-omar-the-family-that-stays-together.php

Omar broadly denied the allegations in a statement to The Associated Press, but declined to provide documents or answer specific questions when pressed.

State Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) Swore to Apparent Falsehoods in Court — While Divorcing Her Alleged Brother
https://pjmedia.com/homeland-security/state-rep-ilhan-omar-d-mn-swore-to-apparent-falsehoods-in-court-while-divorcing-her-alleged-brother/
--------------------------------------------------
The question is, what are you (we) going to do about it?  She won her election with 80% of the vote.  A glass of water with a D on it could win that seat. 

Statute of limitations for marriage fraud is 5 years and the fraud generally occurs at the time of the fraudulent marriage.  In the case of Ilhan Omar, she also committed a fraud on the divorce court in 2017 by saying she is not been able to find and has not had contact with her brother husband since 2011.  She has tweeted family pictures during that period that indicate otherwise.  Can Attorney General Barr dive into this without political repercussions and what becomes of it as she lives in a sanctuary city and was elected by people who don't believe immigration fraud is a crime.

This was known on the right blogosphere before her election, but not by her voters.  Scott Johnson of Powerline has challenged the (Mpls)Startribune to cover it without success.  Now she can just say, like the old Clinton strategy, this is an old allegation, as if it had already been thoroughly vetted but it hasn't.

WSJ: A trip down memory lane with Al Sharpton

The Party of Buttigieg and Sharpton
The mayor seeks the blessing of a dubious Democratic elder.
By Matthew Hennessey
April 29, 2019 6:41 p.m. ET
Pete Buttigieg and Al Sharpton in New York, April 4. Photo: don emmert/Agence France-Presse/Getty Images

While Joe Biden is being held to account for things he said and did as long ago as the 1970s, Mayor Pete Buttigieg had lunch in Harlem Monday, seeking the blessing of the Rev. Al Sharpton.

Mr. Buttigieg was only 5 in 1987 when the world outside New York first met Mr. Sharpton, so he may not have a clear sense of how his lunch companion came to wield such influence. Mr. Sharpton was chief spokesman for the family of Tawana Brawley, a black teenager who ran away from home, then falsely claimed she’d been abducted and raped by a gang of white men.

Ms. Brawley’s lawyers, Alton Maddox and C. Vernon Mason, accused Fishkill police officer Harry Crist Jr. of orchestrating the abduction. Crist couldn’t defend himself because he had committed suicide the same week Ms. Brawley went missing. Mr. Maddox claimed Crist had been murdered by co-conspirators because “he was the weak link of all of the culprits.” Ms. Brawley’s trio of advisers also accused Steven Pagones, the county prosecutor who’d investigated the case, of being part of the gang.

A grand jury determined the abduction was fake and found no evidence that Ms. Brawley had been assaulted. A former aide to Mr. Sharpton admitted in 1988 that the whole thing had been “only a media show.” A decade later Mr. Pagones won a defamation judgment against Ms. Brawley and Messrs. Sharpton, Maddox and Mason.

Mr. Sharpton also has a history of anti-Semitic agitation. In August 1991 an Orthodox Jewish driver ran a red light and swerved into Gavin Cato, an 8-year-old black child, in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Crown Heights. The following night a mob set upon 29-year-old Yankel Rosenbaum—an Australian student who had nothing to do with the accident—and stabbed him to death. At Gavin’s funeral, Mr. Sharpton caricatured Jews as “diamond dealers” and, according to a report in Newsday, “seemed to scoff . . . at labeling Gavin’s death an accident.” At a rally around the same time, he was quoted as saying: “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house.”

In the summer of 1995 Mr. Sharpton’s National Action Network held daily protests against Freddy’s Fashion Mart, a Jewish-owned Harlem retailer that had a rent dispute with a black-owned subtenant. Protesters screamed about “bloodsucking Jews” and “Jew bastards,” and Mr. Sharpton himself vowed: “We will not stand by and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business on 125th Street.” In December Roland Smith, 51, who’d participated in the protests, returned to Freddy’s, brandished a gun, and burned the place down. Smith killed seven people and himself in the attack.

Mr. Buttigieg lunched with Mr. Sharpton Monday in a Harlem that looks almost nothing like it did in 1995. A Kid’s Foot Locker and a Gap Factory Store now stand where Freddy’s once did. Mr. Sharpton looks different too. He’s lost weight and traded his velour track suits for pinstripes, street demonstrations for a hosting gig on MSNBC.

Somehow the media and the Democratic Party have granted Mr. Sharpton the absolution Mr. Biden desperately seeks. And how was lunch, Mr. Mayor?

It isn't that one man doesn't know the difference between Andrew Jackson and Andrew Johnson, it is that the media and the Left (redundancy alert) hold him out to be an expert - on this.  And no one corrected him!

Meanwhile the MSM covers this story - with a pillow until it stops breathing.

When doe one real journalist break with agenda and partisan sides and publish truth?

AOC demands a raise
« Reply #144 on: June 11, 2019, 01:32:04 AM »
Hasn't even been on the job for a yr and demands to give herself a raise:

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/dems-lawmakers-pay-increase-contempt-votes-funding

That's multiple times anyone got in tax breaks.........

This is the reason why they go out and sell themselves to lobbyists because they don't make enough while in office.
You mean these talented people , most lawyers , can't get another job after they leave office?

I suppose the taxpayers should pay for AOC's raise like they should 90 trillion to totally turn the entire economy into solar and wind.
and "free health care" for everyone and , free education for everyone, 6 months to stay home to take care of are babies,  a month of guaranteed paid time off and more.

No pay raise but maybe a performance bonus for balancing the budget and repealing unnecessary laws and regulation.

If 14% approve of the job Congress is doing I wonder what percentage support a pay raise?

The question is not whether she will win re-election in Minnesota's 5th District, she will. The question is whether it will hurt her colleagues' closer races Minnesota's second, third, 7th and 8th districts, and nationwide.
