'If you nominate Loony Liz, you won't get any money from us.', say heavy Dem donors to the DNC.

Dem Rep Schiff's characterization of the Ukraine telecon transcript is historically one of the most audacious stream of lies fabricated out of whole cloth and bearing no relationship to what was in the released document.  Does anyone know of a lamestream outlet that has called him out on that?  (and more Dems' lies here)

[27sep19 update] Socialist "France said it would cut taxes on individuals and businesses by €10.2B as Macron seeks to revive his economic overhaul."  Whouda thought, as our lefties have been telling us for years that tax rates don't affect economic behavior? (more here)

[28sep19 update] The recent spate of spontaneous worldwide demonstrations against AGW are really not that spontaneous nor even locally sponsored.  Turns out they're the handiwork of a bunch of progressive rich people contributing money through something called Climate Emergency Fund, that then sends the cash to the worldwide chapters of Extinction Rebellion which actually collects and organizes the know-nothings into newsworthy protests primarily picked up by lamestream outlets. (more here)  H/T to reader.

    OK,, ANY sock puppet can take on my question. Do I need to repeat it? (well of course I do… TROLLS have no memory)
    “WHY would the people of the U.S. would vote for less employment, massive taxation, a return to more regulations than ever before, and guaranteed doubling of fuel prices?”

    I reckon I will post this here under Schlipps and the Full Monty of lies, lies, and more lies. The organ of the DNC-Deep State Industrial Complex (the Enemy of the Truth) is feeling it bigtime.

    Hey, this article even mentions Nixon.
    Bring On the Biggest Nothingburger of Them All
    “After three days, the divided Democratic leadership was edging away from pre-announcing an effort to impeach and remove and waffling about “an official impeachment inquiry.” The egregious Democratic House judiciary and intelligence committee chairmen, Jerry Nadler (D.-N.Y.) and Adam Schiff (D.-Calif.), are pawing the ground but they have nothing to work with and nowhere to go. They have tried to follow Saul Alinsky’s playbook by accusing their opponents of what they themselves are doing, but Alinsky’s most assiduous current executant, fellow-Chicagoan David Axelrod, immediately warned his fellow Democrats of the dangers they were courting.
    “The Democrats have no believable scandal; they can only impeach him once. This will be the biggest and bitterest nothingburger of all. Bring it on.“

    What is missing in all this chatter is the military aid that the President of Ukraine wanted; Javelins. Anti-tank missiles. Something Obama was too afraid to give Ukraine because Zerobama did not want to upset the Russians. Something Trump was and is willing to do. The Pentagon review was the delay of the delivery of the Javelins. Ukraine as become NATO’s battleground against Russia and the Russian separatists in Eastern Ukraine.

    And for the fiscal Conservative Emery, Your Proggycrats ain’t listening to you.
    https://freebeacon.com/politics/analysis-dem-candidates-call-for-more-than-200-trillion-in-spending/
    “Of the $210 trillion, the plurality—$94 trillion—is the estimated cost of a Green New Deal, which a number of candidates have backed in some form or another. The remaining $116 trillion—roughly six times the United States’s annual Gross Domestic Product—is spread across a variety of policy proposals, from Andrew Yang’s Universal Basic Income to Marianne Williamson’s call for $200 to $500 billion in reparations for slavery.”
    I know,, they are just going to tax the rich and corporations. (who will in turn pass it on to YOU(and us) )
    That’s Commiecrat thinking.

    ,,,Biden and Son are so yesterday’s news. Biden was not president when his son went to Gazprom. If Joe Biden talked to Ukraine about corrupt state officials it was at the behest of Obama. Get a clue boys!!!
    Sure there is some soft nepotism going on and some name brand recognition which could be why the oil company wanted Biden’s son on the board of directors.
    And all this took place in 2016 AFTER the corruption cleanup up at the oil giant. Perhaps having Biden on the BoD was meant to show that there was accountability on the Board.
    So, what’s that about Elaine

    Back to taxes: The new jet vs. the hungry child breakfast.
    Survey Sez!
    “What Matters More: Compassion or Envy?
    Supporters often contend their motivation is compassion for the dispossessed, and they reason their tax proposals would protect democracy and raise revenue for social programs. With such a rhetorical focus on the rich and powerful, however, critics ask if the motivations are simply about compassion or whether envy and resentment also play a role?…….
    “Surveys cannot read minds. But this data suggests support for socialism is likely the product of both compassion and resentment. On the other hand, support for wealth redistribution and hostility toward capitalism may have more to do with resentment of the successful than empathy for the poor.
    “That doesn’t mean compassion doesn’t matter; it may be the true motive for many people. But statistically speaking, resentment is more likely behind such opinions.”

    BT 1:40 – ‘Compassion’ for the poor is usually nothing more than virtue-signalling. The left is famous for being oh-so-generous with some one else’s money.
    Orwell commented similarly on this very subject decades ago. Seems nothing has changed.

    Taxes……for what purpose?
    “Perhaps the strangest utterance of Barack Obama’s career in public office — a career that was full of utterly bizarre pronunciations of many kinds on many subjects — was his 2008 claim that raising taxes on the wealthy is a moral imperative, even if the tax increase in question ended up reducing overall federal revenue.
    “Which is to say, Obama argued that it did not matter whether a tax increase hurt the Treasury, so long as it also hurt, at least in theory and on paper, certain wealthy people. That wasn’t a one-off: In his crackpot speech in Osawatomie, Kan., during which he tried to reanimate Teddy Roosevelt’s “new nationalism” cult (this was back before progressives had decided that to use the word “nationalism” in public was akin to shouting “Sieg heil!”), he took a similarly moralizing approach. “Our tax code must reflect our values,” he proclaimed.
    Why?”

    https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-adam-schiff-write-whistleblower-complaint-advance-knowledge
    “A spokesman for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., acknowledged Wednesday that the whistleblower alleging misconduct in the White House had reached out to Schiff’s panel before filing a complaint — prompting President Trump to accuse Schiff of helping write the document in an extraordinary press conference at the White House.
    “I think it’s a scandal that he knew before,” Trump said. “I’d go a step further. I’d say he probably helped write it. … That’s a big story. He knew long before, and he helped write it too. It’s a scam.”
    That steaming pile of SCHIFF needs to be investigated.
