    Special delivery for EMERY,,
    https://www.zerohedge.com/political/democrats-caught-using-fake-evidence-impeachment-trial
    “Democrats were caught Wednesday using fake evidence during their impeachment clown show, and were forced to withdraw it, proving that they don’t care about the truth, and only about trying to punish President Trump.
    Impeachment managers led by Rep. Raskin charged that following the Capitol storming on January 6, Trump called Senator Mike Lee by accident when he really meant to speak to Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville.
    Impeachment manager David Cicilline said “He dialed Senator Lee by accident, and Senator Lee describes it that he had just ended a prayer in the Senate chamber.”
    Cicilline then charged that Trump asked Tuberville to “make further objections” to Biden’s election vote count, while Senator Lee “stood by.”
    It soon emerged that then entire claim was bullshit, when Senator Lee confirmed it never happened.
    “Statements attributed to me moments ago by the impeachment managers, statements relating to the contents of the conversations between phone calls involving Trump and Senator Tuberville, were not made by me, were not accurate,” Senator Lee said.”
    Now that had to make someone feel lower that a snake’s belly.
    And having to admit it? That’s the 8TH level of HELL for LIB to do. If he had a sword, he would have fallen on it.
    Like I stated Emery,, LIBS LIE!! That’s what they DO!
    And all in living color,, LIVE, and Dolby 5.6 quad.

    Paul 6:09 – Walt’s 5:49 documented a fact that the Dems tried to introduce fraudulent evidence. Do have any facts to the contrary?
    It doesn’t matter what you or any one else posted an hour ago.
    Step up to the plate and face the pitcher, Paul.
    Make your comment germane to the facts that Walt posted or go piss on your own shoes.
    Your post about Trump’s phone call doesn’t prove anything other than the fact that Trump called McCarthy and there were cuss words.
    Oh, my!
    The idea that Trump could “call off” people that had shown up in DC just to cause trouble and not anything to do with Trump is nonsense.
    There is no proof any of these particular rioters were in DC because of Trump nor is there any proof that Trump had any means of “calling them off”.
    Paul is the one swinging wildly.
    We have facts – Paul has name-calling and left-wing conjecture.

    IS AMERICA FAILING THE “TWITTER TEST”?
    https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/02/is-america-failing-the-twitter-test.php
    ————————
    ‘Reason Can’t Prevail Against an Irrational Opposition’
    To illustrate this, let’s examine Carano’s offending post. She declared:
    “Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?”
    A spokesman for LucasFilms responded to this statement by declaring that Carano’s “social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.”
    Can’t find the “denigration” in Carano’s post? Progressives find it because Carano is on the wrong side politically speaking, and while words are slippery things of myriad meanings, being on the wrong side and saying something in defense of that side is wrong. Therefore, Carano’s comments must be denigrating or racist or some other nasty thing. You may not think it’s that simple, but for millions of thoughtless Americans on the left, it is.
    It doesn’t matter that Disney is a hypocrite for allowing Carano’s liberal co-star to post photos comparing American-Mexico border detentions to Nazi concentration camps. Nor does it matter that Disney turned a blind eye when another of their employees posted a cartoon of abloody woodchipper with the words: “MAGAkids go screaming, hats first, into the woodchipper.” Disney will get away with the Carano firing, and in a week the incident will be forgotten, yet another sign of the fact that we are losing.
    We are losing because our side assumes that reason can prevail when it comes to the confrontation of ideas. It can—but only when both sides are committed to reason. It’s useless to attempt to reason when the opposition is doggedly irrational. You will always lose an argument with someone who insists that two plus two equals five just as easily as it equals four, and meanwhile you will have wasted both time and energy.

    WIND AND SOLAR ENERGY DON’T WORK
    A recent analysis by the consulting firm Wood Mackenzie estimates there will be about 741 gigawatt-hours of battery storage in 2030. This amount equates to 741,000 megawatt-hours (MWh). These may sound like big numbers, but the figures are actually damning evidence that battery storage is an entirely unserious energy proposal.
    “In 2019, the state of Minnesota consumed 72 million megawatt-hours of electricity. This means the amount of battery storage expected to be in existence for the entire world would be the equivalent of just one percent of Minnesota’s annual energy consumption.”

    Singling out Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., Lawrence tweeted earlier this week: “I’ve never been verified on Twitter so why did my Tweet used in the fact-free impeachment include a verification badge?”
    In an open letter, Lawrence rejected Swalwell’s implication that she meant to bring troops to the Capitol. The California congressman was criticizing her claim that she would bring “calvary,” but purportedly misconstruing it as horses or “cavalry.”
    Calvary according to the Gospels of the Bible, is a site outside the walls of Jerusalem’s where Jesus was crucified
    Swalwell mispronounced “calvary” as “cavalry” while reading her tweet and proceeded to claim on Feb. 10: “This was not just any old protest. President Trump was inciting something historic. The cavalry was coming, and he was organized.”

    https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/02/12/ted-cruz-asks-impeachment-managers-if-kamala-harris-incited-riots-from-black-lives-matter-protests/
    “Cruz’s question began, “While violent riots were raging, Kamala Harris said on national TV, ‘They’re not gonna let up, and they should not,’” quoting viral comments then-Sen. Harris (D-CA) made on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert last June in reference to nationwide Black Lives Matter protests.
    “And she also raised money to bail out violent rioters,” Cruz’s question continued in reference to the Minnesota Freedom Fund (MFF) Harris urged her Facebook and Twitter followers to support in June 2020.
    Cruz’s question continued, “Using the manager’s proposed standard, is there any coherent way for Donald Trump’s words to be incitement and Kamala Harris’s words not to be incitement?”
    Lead House impeachment manager Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) responded to the question by saying on the chamber floor that he was “not familiar” with the quote from Harris that Cruz had referenced; however, Trump attorney Michael T. van der Veek rejected that notion during his own response to Cruz, saying his team had given video to the House’s team of Harris’s quote and that they had played the video three times that day.”
    Translation… “No, Harris is a LIB… That makes it OK”

    Morning bitch.
    Article after article, even on Raw Sewage, says the same things about opening up schools now. The CDC says so, the science says so, and everybody but the teachers unions says so. We have know since before March 24 (the date Gov. Cuomo ordered the hospitalized elderly recovering from C-19 Into nursing homes to make room in the hospitals) that C-19 particularly zeroes on our senior citizens. The most vulnerable seniors can’t handle/survive C-19 and children can handle the Wuhan Flu just fine.
    So, what does Cuomo do?? He opens up nursing homes and assisted facilities to those who are carriers of death and closes down the schools. 15,000 dead in NY nursing homes, maybe one under 17 years old. Idiots.
    ——
    My point? The teachers union of Fairfax County, the largest public school system in Virginia, demanded that all teachers be vaccinated Before returning to the classroom. So, the teachers got put at the head of the line, got vaccinated, and now refuse to back to the classroom. Fuck those low information “teachers”. Teaching how to break their word if nothing else.
    Other school districts like Chicago have threatened strikes if they have to do their job classification, So, now students can go sit in the classrooms again, but the teachers continue to sit at home instructing the whole class via TV monitors from afar. Liars. And they won’t miss a paycheck, but demand their Stimulus checks. Sickos. BTW, the Democrat Stimulus Bill includes 500 million (half a billion dollars) for schools and education. That is one big money pit
    Bottomline: most, by now, can see the song and dance. The science says reopen the schools because our students are suffering academically, physically, socially, emotionally, and irreparable psychological harm has been forced upon them by Blue State Governors bending a knee to the despicable Teachers Unions. Hang them high, upside down with a burlap sack over their heads and pass out ugly sticks to beat those teacher union reps to a bloody pulp. They have well deserved my scorn. They are grifters. They put their cash cow unions ahead of children’s lives.

    Biden’s Concerning Foreign Policy
    “Passivity is one thing. Rewarding bad behavior is something else — something much worse. But that is precisely what Biden has done in three critical areas. He rejoined the U.N. Human Rights Council despite its corruption and anti-Semitism. He handed Vladimir Putin a cost-free victory despite the Russian dictator’s arrest and imprisonment of democracy activist Alexei Navalny. And he took the pressure off an Iranian ally despite its terrorist behavior and Iran’s mounting violations of the 2015 nuclear accord. These decisions won’t end worrisome behavior. They will incentivize it.”
    https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/02/bidens-concerning-foreign-policy/
    Yep, I got concerned myself yesterday when I found out that Biden’s press secretary dodged and deflected a question by a WH press member: “Does the President view Israel and Saudi Arabia allies? Could not answer the question.
    Back to the Obama foreign policy. Looks like O will get another crack at Assad and have peace break out all over the region. Freedom fighters. I remember the sad day that we pulled out in disgrace. Samantha Powers sure told Putin, the victorious, a thing or two about what we thought of him.

    “Nato should examine how it can power tanks and jets with alternative energy, such as solar panels, to reduce its carbon emissions, the alliance’s secretary general said.
    Reducing reliance on fossil fuels would also make troops less vulnerable to attack because they would not have to rely on long supply lines getting fuel to the front line, Jens Stoltenberg said.
    The Nato chief suggested that militaries should advance research into low-emitting vehicles because of the advantages they bring, at an online seminar titled New Ideas for Nato 2030.
    “Nato should do its part to look into how we can reduce emissions from military operations,” he told the Chatham House event. “We know that heavy battle tanks or fighter jets and naval ships consume a lot of fossil fuel and emit greenhouse gases and therefore we have to look into how we can reduce those emissions by alternative fuels, solar panels or other ways of running our missions.””
