WATCH: RNC Releases Brutal Ad Slamming Political Left

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Republican National Committee released a new ad on Thursday highlighting the political Left as “an unhinged mob” as Democratic leaders have called for incivility and used violent rhetoric in recent days.

The new campaign ad comes as the 2018 midterm elections are less than a month away and as leftist groups have caused unease around the country with their increasingly mob-like behavior. . .

“We know passions are high in this country but when you have leaders for the Democratic Party escalating that, it is going to lead to something dangerous,” RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel told The Daily Wire.

Democrats’ Arizona Senate Nominee Caught on Tape Bashing…Arizona

/0 Comments/in , /by

The GOP has sought to highlight Democrat Kyrsten Sinema’s past radicalism — she protested the Afghanistan war in a pink tutu, and her organization portrayed American soldiers as murderous skeletons inflicting “US terror” — as well as her biographical…shall we say, enhancements. But in a blue-tinted year, with Democrats highly motivated, Sinema has held onto a modest lead. It will be fascinating to see whether she will maintain that lead post-Kavanaugh, and after this clip makes its way into the bloodstream, via news coverage and inevitable attack ads:

The “crazy” lines aren’t helpful, especially when she attributes her state’s supposed insanity to one factor: “They’re called Republicans,” eliciting laughter and applause from a leftist crowd. Remember, she’s trying to run as a moderate, cross-partisan uniter. Part of her potential victory coalition must include a chunk of Republican voters. But the most brutal line is this one, delivered in an out-of-state speech to liberal activists:

“I want to talk to you about some of the things that I think that you can do to stop your state from becoming Arizona.”

Sinema is asking Arizonans to elect her to represent them. She thinks they’re crazy people and that other states should go out of their way to avoid being like her own constituents. And this speech was delivered well after she undertook her ideological makeover project. If Arizona Republican and right-leaning voters are ever going to coalesce around McSally, the Kavanaugh fight should be a clarifying catalyst; both Arizona Senators cast crucial confirmation votes. And now, here’s the Democrat in the race insulting both them specifically, and their state generally. Talk about motivating factors. Bigger picture, if Republicans can lock down either Arizona or Nevada — the two states in which Democrats have the best shot at Senate gains — it’s game over. The GOP will retain control of the upper chamber.

NBC Tried to Find Young People Motivated to Vote…Things Turned out Poorly

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Democrats are fired up, they say. I’m sure they are—they’ve been fired up since January 2017. The vicious Supreme Court fight is over. Judge Brett Kavanaugh has been confirmed. The GOP won, though the Left thinks he’s a gang rapist, despite those allegations, which thrust the confirmation process into chaos, lacked evidence or corroborating witnesses. It was a circus—and showed how far the Left is willing to go to win.

We had to remain firm, and we did. The Left was willing to pervert the presumption of innocence, due process, and the FBI to get what they want. They partially got that; the Senate delayed the vote for a week until the bureau could investigate the claims and came back with the same conclusion. Democrats weren’t satisfied—no shocker there—because they have this nutty belief that women are incapable of lying, misidentifying, or misremembering events.

Regardless, we won, and the Democrats lost, which made the Kavanaugh win all the more delicious. So, are Democrats fired up? Well, for key voting blocs that need to show up to boot Republicans in competitive races, no one seems to give a crap. NBC News ventured into deep-blue California, where Rep. Mimi Walters (R-CA) in the state’s 45th congressional district could be in trouble if a surge in minority and young voters occurs.

Reporter Jacob Soboroff tried to find young voters who are motivated to vote this November—and found one person. One girl said that she should vote, but that Democrats shouldn’t rely on her to be at the polls on Election Day.

Eric Holder to Democrats: ‘When They Go Low, We Kick Them’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Barack Obama’s former attorney general Eric Holder told a crowd over the weekend that Democrats should “kick” Republicans.

“It is time for us as Democrats to be as tough as they are, to be as dedicated as they are, to be as committed as they are,” he told a crowd in Georgia. “Michelle [Obama] always says, ‘When they go low, we go high.’ No. When they go low, we kick them.”

“That’s what this new Democratic Party is about,” Holder said next, while campaigning for Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams. “We’re not in this just to make a statement, we’re in this to win.”

Holder seems to be taking a play out of former President Obama’s handbook. In 2008, then-candidate Obama told his supporters: “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun. Because from what I understand, folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.”

Democrats have been ramping up calls for intimidation, harassment, and violence over the past couple of months, particularly after Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination and confirmation to the Supreme Court. In an interview with CNN on Tuesday, Hillary Clinton called for liberals to stop being civil until Democrats take control of the House and Senate.

Rand Paul Accuses the Media of Hiding a Key Detail About the GOP Baseball Attacker

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Blaze. Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) made a stunning revelation about what an attacker yelled as he fired on Republican members of Congress playing baseball in Virginia in a harrowing 2017 attack. . .

Paul was speaking on “Fox and Friends” Wednesday when he recalled what the attacker yelled during the violent assault, and made a direct connection to overheated rhetoric from the left.

“I was there at the ball field when Steven Scalise (R-La.) almost died from a very, very angry violent man who was incited really by Rhetoric on the left,” Paul said.

“And this hasn’t been reported enough,” he continued, “when he came on the field with a semi-automatic weapon firing probably close to 200 shots at us, shooting five people and almost killing Steve Scalise, he was yelling ‘this is for healthcare.’” . . .

“So what happens is that when Democrats say ‘get up in their face,’ they need to realize that there are a lot of unstable people out there,” Paul explained. “There are people with anger issues, there are people who are prone to violence.” (Read more from “Rand Paul Accuses the Media of Hiding a Key Detail About the GOP Baseball Attacker” HERE)

Rand Paul: There Will Be an ‘Assassination’ If Left Doesn’t Ratchet Down the Rhetoric

By Fox and Friends. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) called for Democrats to tamp down the anti-Trump rhetoric before one of their supporters resorts to violence.

Speaking on “Fox & Friends” Wednesday, Paul said the bitter fight over Supreme Court justice Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation has made him increasingly concerned.

“There is going to be an assassination if this doesn’t ratchet down. The other side needs to really calm the rhetoric down,” he said.

Meantime, former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton declared Tuesday that Democrats “cannot be civil” with Republicans any longer.

“You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about,” Clinton said. (Read more from “Rand Paul: There Will Be an ‘Assassination’ If Left Doesn’t Ratchet Down the Rhetoric” HERE)

Watch: Crowd Reaction to Trump’s Mention of Feinstein Surprises Everyone

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Donald Trump was speaking about Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein and allegations she leaked Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s letter during a rally when the crowd began to cheer “lock her up” on Tuesday.

Trump was mocking Feinstein for the way she responded to allegations that she or somebody in her office was responsible for leaking Dr. Ford’s letter to the public by making wild hand gestures and rhetorically asking, “Did we leak?”

“Did we leak?” Trump asked once again, only to answer his own question by shaking his hands and saying, “No! No! No, we didn’t.”

The crowd erupted in laughter before beginning to chant “lock her up,” eliciting a smirk from the president. “I think they’re talking about Feinstein. Can you believe it?” Trump responded in dismay. (Read more from “Crowd Reaction to Trump’s Mention of Feinstein Surprises Everyone” HERE)

Nikki Haley Resigns as UN Ambassador

/0 Comments/in , /by

Nikki Haley has resigned as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Her replacement will have big shoes to fill. Haley fundamentally transformed the U.N. ambassador post while simultaneously securing major geopolitical victories for the United States. She was a widely renowned official in the Trump administration, achieving almost unanimous recognition from conservatives and moderates alike.

In an announcement in the Oval Office Tuesday morning, President Trump confirmed that Ambassador Haley has resigned her post and will be leaving at the end of the year.

During her tenure as U.N. ambassador, Haley oversaw several major U.S. policy shifts. Having developed a reputation for her aggressive, vocal, and passionate defense of the U.S. and its allies, Haley delivered several major victories for U.S. interests.

Ambassador Haley was never afraid to call out China for its hostile behavior. She slammed Russia for empowering the Syrian dictatorship with chemical weapons. She called attention to North Korea’s nuclear ambitions. And Haley took the Iranian regime to task for its worldwide funding and assistance of terrorist groups.

Haley led the fight to end U.S. membership in and funding for the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC), a U.N. body with a membership roster of authoritarian nations and Islamic supremacist regimes.

She succeeded in cutting off funding for UNRWA, the U.N. Palestinian refugee body, which has promoted the destruction of Israel and helped to perpetuate Arab-Israeli hostilities.

A staunch defender of the Jewish state, Haley was also a major proponent of moving the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, Israel’s capital city.

Haley acted as a fiercely independent branch of the Trump administration, which sometimes raised red flags in Washington. In September, she wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post condemning her anonymous colleague’s high-profile New York Times piece earlier that week bashing the president. In her Washington Post op-ed, Haley claimed that when she challenges the president, she does it “directly.” This reportedly caused some resentment in the White House, but it’s unclear whether it was the reason for her departure.

Nikki Haley will go down as arguably the most prolific and effective U.S. ambassador to the United Nations ever. She achieved a unique combination of victories. She was perhaps best known for rhetorically taking American adversaries to the woodshed, but Haley also secured major diplomatic and policy victories behind the scenes. Her unapologetic defense of America and its allies was coupled with her ability to effect real, lasting change at the U.N.
