Exposing Nancy Pelosi's tough-on-crime schtick on national TV

Nancy Pelosi did her best yesterday to portray Democrats as being tough on crime. Saying that Ms. Pelosi failed is understatement. What Ms. Pelosi did more than anything was prove that she's there to fundraise for Democrats and lie about any touchy subject.

Pelosi said "With all the respect in the world for [Rep.] Cori Bush, that is not the position of the Democratic Party. Make no mistake: Community safety is our responsibility." If community safety is the Democrats' highest responsibility, why were they silent the entire summer of 2020? Why did our vice president advocate for raising money for the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a fund that bailed out rioters in Minneapolis? Why didn't Democrats speak out about crime at the Democratic National Convention?

In Minneapolis, Jacob Frey essentially dismissed the riots in his city. When asked about the Third Precinct police station getting torched, Frey replied "Brick and mortar are not as important as life. The symbolism of a building cannot outweigh the significance of life."

That wasn't a precaution. That's what a capitulation looks like. This is what soft-on-crime looks like:

This is Frey's response to WCCO-TV's questions about the Third Precinct:

The truth is that Biden, Pelosi and Ilhan Omar have virtually no control over policing. The thing that they have control over are things like climate change, energy policy and inflation. When it comes to inflation the voting records of Ilhan Omar and supposed moderate Angie Craig are identical. Republicans aren't throwing Democrats out over crime as much as they're throwing them out for screwing up our economy, especially with inflation. Voters will throw Democrats out for America's open borders, too.

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

What is Kamala Harris afraid of?

Image
Apparently, Kamala Harris suddenly loves debating. Let me rephrase that. Harris loves debating as long as the moderators are partisan hacks. She wants nothing to do with a debate moderated by Fox's Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum. She's afraid of Bret and Martha because a) they'll either fact-check both her and Trump or they won't fact-check either of them and b) Bret and Martha aren't afraid of asking follow-up questions. To a candidate whose answers are scripted and who isn't quick on her feet, the last thing you want is a follow-up question. Kamala fears follow-up questions like vampires hate wooden stakes, sunlight and holy water. Why has Kamala Harris avoided Fox News like the plague? The moderators/propagandists fact-checked Donald Trump aggressively but didn't fact-check Harris . Why didn't David Muir and Linsey Davis fact-check both candidates equally? Is it because Harris doesn't like fair fights? Perhaps she's just afraid of getting exp

Why is Joe Biden letting Hamas off the hook?

Image
It isn't disputable whether Joe Biden's administration is letting Hamas off the hook. That issue was settled months ago, when a spineless Joe Biden caved to activists interested in saving Hamas and thwarting the Israelis' attempt to defend themselves. Gerard Baker's op-ed highlights what's at stake for the U.S. if the terrorists are permitted to survive. In his op-ed, Baker wrote "If, under the pressure of internal Democratic politics and global public opinion, the Biden administration forces a 'cease-fire' that leaves our closest ally in the region short of victory over an enemy that seeks to destroy it, sooner or later we shall all pay the price." It's time to revisit George W. Bush's speech to a joint session of Congress on Sept. 20, 2001. It's required that we remind ourselves of one of its most important paragraphs. In talking about who committed the atrocities of 9/11, President Bush identified al-Qa'ida as "a collectio
