Democrats cry foul against democracy

House Democrats have continuously complained about "extreme MAGA Republicans" being "threats to democracy" even though House Republicans have played by the rules. Now they're complaining that they "felt betrayed" by the Teamsters because the Teamsters picked Donald Trump by a 59.6%-34% margin in this year's presidential endorsing convention.

This Washington Times article opens by saying "House Democrats expressed disappointment and said they felt betrayed by the Teamsters union, which decided it would not endorse a presidential candidate this cycle."

The article continues, saying "The traditionally pro-Democratic Party union was on the receiving end of the party’s ire Wednesday after announcing its nonendorsement decision and releasing its national electronic poll of its 1.3 million members showing the rank-and-file overwhelmingly support former President Donald Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris, 59.6% to 34%." Let's be clear. VP Harris got her butt kicked in this endorsement fight. This wasn't a nail=biter of a decision. Getting defeated 60%-35% is getting thoroughly whipped. In this video, AOC lets loose with the pampered brat routine:

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York said she was “disappointed” with the leadership of Teamsters President Sean O’Brien. She blasted him for his relationship with Mr. Trump. Mr. O’Brien addressed the Republican National Convention back in July. She called the Teamsters’ decision 'confusing' and an 'aberration.'"

"I find [Mr. O’Brien’s] behavior, especially after he went out to eat at Mar-a-Lago with Donald Trump, to be a questionable change in his pattern," she said. "At the end of the day, we know that when the Teamsters are in trouble, who do they call when they need to make sure that Teamsters pensions are bailed out?"

Democrats left the Teamsters. The Democrats' union-unfriendly policies don't help unions. That's especially true of the Democrats'regulation regime. The unions hate tons of regulations because they slow down production. Finally, there's this:
Rep. James McGovern of Massachusetts said Ms. Harris deserved the endorsement, and the poll only shows that Teamsters members are uninformed about Mr. Trump.
In other words, people that don't agree with Democrats are "uninformed?" That's a misguided view of democracy.

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...
