    Believe it or Not but there has actually been an arrest in the communists attack on the Berkley Trump event. Professor Eric Clanton of bike lock attack fame has finally been arrested. Wasn’t he ID’s the day after the attack? Bond set at 200k. I would expect the line of sharks offering to defend him for free is already very long. 😉

    Shut it down, shut it down!
    That seem to be the explosive cry of the left over any discussion of the Seth Rich murders and his involvement in the DNC Hack. Here is an example.
    Twitter, whose founder has expressed regret that his organization’s advocacy for free speech may have contributed to Donald Trump’s election as president, on Wednesday suspended for 12 hours WND.com’s account for a headline tweet on Donna Brazile’s involvement in the scandal developing over the death of DNC staffer Seth Rich.
    […]
    The tweet was: “Bombshell: Donna Brazile warned off private eye on Seth Rich murder…”
    On Wednesday, Twitter sent a message instructing WND to delete the tweet. “If you feel that your account has been locked in error, you can appeal by contacting our support team here,” Twitter said.

    Left wing organizations have been badgering Fox News and bullying advertisers to shut down Sean Hannity’s exploration of the DNC Hack and Seth Rich’s involvement, even though hackers involved with the data transfer were willing to testify before Congress that Rich was the source of the DNC emails.
    It seems to me that the intensity of the left’s attack on all news and commentary outlets that are discussing DNC/Rich murder connection indicated they are hiding something from the public. If in fact, the DNC hack was an inside job, the Russian/Trump meme takes a serious hit, as does the Hillary claim her loss was due to Russian interference in our presidential election.
    There is more to this story yet to unfold, more layers of a complex story to be revealed.

    Yes indeed, our country dodged a bullet dipped in radioactive nuke juice. Call it a miracle, Divine Intervention, Judgement Day for the Left…..I call it The Reckoning.
    No resting on our laurels. Evil dwells among us and like rust and corrosion, Evil never sleeps. The left’s darkness knows no bounds. No limit to the depths of depravity they will sink into.
    I could be wrong, but I would wager that ‘this Evil Deed was not done by a Righty, Conservative, Deplorable, nor even an Irredeemable. It had the marking of the children of Jezebel. That is how they celebrate Memorial Day. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. Be strong and God bless America.

    The wages of progressivism is teh the stupid…….

    Amid this backlash, the two women have shut down their business, seemingly without comment. Their website, Facebook account, Instagram account, and Twitter profile have all disappeared. And all because they were white people who had the audacity to serve burritos to the public.
    Cultural appropriation is a bizarre concept when you think about it. It demands that you treat every culture like an animal in a zoo. You can admire them from afar, but don’t you dare touch.
    It’s also a sign of severe cognitive dissonance among leftists. They claim they want everyone in the world to mix and live in peace, but they snap at people who dare to share another culture.
    Ironically, it sounds an awful lot like regular old racism. It used to be that liberals fought ideologies that segregated races and cultures. Now these people are fighting for the same thing that racists in the past fought for; which is to maintain the purity of certain races and cultures. And just as it was in the past, this deluded belief is ruining lives.

    We should demand the rest of the world give up modern dentistry, antibiotics, double entry bookkeeping, beer, etc…..after all…..what have the Romans ever given us?!
