Democrat Accused of Repeated Use of Women’s Restroom Will Resign

A Colorado Democrat whom female colleagues had accused earlier this year of frequenting a women’s restroom inside the Statehouse is resigning, a spokesman said Wednesday. . .

“It’s been a great honor to serve the people of Colorado for just short of a decade,” Kagan said in a statement. “An important obligation of leaders, I believe, is to be open to acknowledging that it’s time to pass the torch to new leadership and, for me, that time is now.”

Kagan was instrumental in repealing a 19th-century law that criminalized adultery, a law he regarded as giving authorities the power to question people about their personal lives, “which is a gross invasion of privacy that’s fully within the rights of the police right now.”

But Republican state Sen. Beth Martinez Humenik said several women claimed to have seen Kagan using a women’s restroom multiple times since January 2017. She filed a workplace sexual harassment complaint against Kagan in March.

Kagan said he’d entered the women’s restroom just once by mistake because it was unlabeled. The debacle prompted the state Senate to post signs outside its restroom designating “men” and “women,” Denver’s KUSA-TV reported.

2020: Another Democrat Decides Not to Run Against Trump

By Townhall. Let’s not kid ourselves, folks. The 2020 Democratic field is going to be big, but there are two people that are no longer running. Anti-Trump lawyer Michael Avenatti, who continues to be the Left’s professional clown, opted not to run in an announcement released yesterday, despite pounding his chest about how he would win if he ran in 2020. So, we’ll chalk that as a win for Trump. Truth be told, Avenatti would have been thrashed, he had no national constituency, and would have embarrassed the Democratic Party immensely. It’s also partially why I wanted him to run. It would have been amazing watching Avenatti pick fights with the rest of the 2020 field. Well, that field is also less one Democrat: former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick. He’s out too. (Read more from “2020: Another Democrat Decides Not to Run Against Trump” HERE)

Deval Patrick to Announce He Will Not Run for President in 2020

By The New York Times. Deval Patrick, the former two-term Democratic governor of Massachusetts, plans to announce shortly that he will not run for president in 2020, according to a person close to Mr. Patrick.

Mr. Patrick had been discussing a possible run with associates and had been traveling around the country to support Democratic candidates in the midterm elections. But he had also expressed some reluctance about a possible presidential run, telling David Axelrod, a former Obama adviser, that he wasn’t sure there was a place for him.

“It’s hard to see how you even get noticed in such a big, broad field without being shrill, sensational or a celebrity — and I’m none of those things and I’m never going to be any of those things,” Mr. Patrick said in a podcast interview in September with Mr. Axelrod.

Democrat Calls for Gun Confiscation, Suggests Nuking Americans Who Fight Back

By Daily Wire. Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) caused a firestorm on Friday when he suggested using nuclear weapons against American citizens who oppose his far-left gun control agenda, which includes forcing Americans to give up their semi-automatic weapons.

Swalwell made the comment in response to a May news article on his radical plan that was widely recirculated on Twitter on Friday in which he called for a $15 billion government program to confiscate millions of guns from Americans.

Democrat Congressman: We Should Confiscate Guns and If You Fight Back, the Government Has Nukes to Deal With It

By Townhall. California Democrat Congressman Eric Swalwell is calling for government confiscation of all semi-automatic rifles. In other words, every rifle in America.

“Gun buyback” is a nice term for confiscation, which Swalwell acknowledged. “Assault rifle” is a politically loaded, misleading term used by the left to demonize semi-automatic rifles. And yes, confiscating millions of privately owned firearms is indeed tyrannical.

Top Democrat Overheard Discussing Kavanaugh Impeachment Plans

The top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee was overheard Wednesday discussing Democrats’ plans to investigate and try to impeach Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

New York Democratic Rep. Jerrold Nadler took a series of phone calls while riding the Acela train from New York to Washington, D.C., not knowing that the The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway was also on the train and within earshot.

Nadler is set to take over as judiciary chairman as a result of Democrats flipping the House in Tuesday’s midterm elections.

Nadler claimed in one call that “there’s a real indication that Kavanaugh committed perjury,” claiming the justice misled about when he first heard about the second of several unproven allegations against him.

Nadler claimed Kavanaugh was “asked at a committee hearing under oath when he first heard of the subject, he said, ‘When I’d heard of The Atlantic article.’ But there is an email chain apparently dating from well before that from him about ‘How can we deal with this?’” (Read more from “Top Democrat Overheard Discussing Kavanaugh Impeachment Plans” HERE)

The Democrats’ Midterm Motto Seems to Be ‘the Beatings Will Continue Until Morale Improves’

The Democrats’ midterm motto seems to be: “The beatings will continue until morale improves.”

Last week, Hillary Clinton and Eric Holder suggested that being uncivil and even inflicting violence upon those with whom they disagree is the Democrats’ way forward. This is nothing new.

In total embrace of their inner totalitarian, the Democrat Party leadership has entered the final stages of the logical end to their political game. And just like their economic, social, and foreign policies, the final stage is violence against humanity.

The democratic socialists have called for extreme confiscation of wealth in order to create government programs to shift the economic power away from those who earn money toward those who do not. This leads to anger and resentment in those who produce toward those who do not and eventually to a refusal by the best of the best to play along. The refusal to comply leads to a crippling of the economy, which leads to unrest, which leads to the perfect opportunity for a dictator to take control.

Just this week, the results of President Trump’s tax cuts and lift of Obama’s grossly irresponsible regulatory restrictions and have been made clear. People are buying things again because economic optimism is on the rise. You don’t have that with totalitarian regimes. In fact, one of the key reasons we had such an economic downturn during the Obama presidency was because he told us in word and action that we were no longer going to be a prosperous nation. Obama told us we were going to have to pay out our wealth — that though we are an industrious people, we didn’t deserve to reap the rewards of our efforts. We were supposed to give away our wealth to appease the rest of the world, especially those who were hostile toward us.

The foreign policy of the democratic socialists was displayed in the Obama era. Appeasement of dictators, wholesale abuse of our traditional foreign policy, and high regard for the enemies of our Judeo-Christian civilization — we probably will never know to what extent that the Obama administration sold this nation’s values and paid off its enemies. Any president was going to have a very tough go of it after what the Obama regime put in place.

The democratic socialists have turned education on its head and have rejected the science of biology and accepted the phony-baloney gender-bender agenda. Critics of which have been forced to sit on the sidelines of academia, and all references to God have been expunged from mainstream education in America. Their priorities of exalting certain minorities and women have led to severe resentment in white men in America who have been unfailingly preached to about their privilege and skin color since birth.

College students, emboldened by their extreme narcissism, shut down free speech, screaming epithets and bruising eardrums, provoking people who would otherwise be peaceful. This is the spiral of the totalitarian mindset. In a fake play for victimization, they are trained to provoke and sabotage in order to produce the result of pushing people to their limits.

The democratic socialists provoke, sow discontent, rub raw the resentment and differences between us, embrace dictators, pick the wrong side of everything, exalt the crooked, and kill the innocent, and yet we are to believe that the people who voted against their eight years of downward spiral are the problem?

Every policy coming from the Left increases the likelihood of totalitarianism. Individuals tend to resent that, because we know we are supposed to be free: free to think the way we do, free to act within the law, free to enter into contracts, free to eat lunch without being accosted, free — because we’re Americans.

The path of the democratic socialists is one of violence, and there are no two ways about it. That’s why they are not embarrassed and will not pull away from their violent talk and action. If they somehow win in November based upon their actions on display for all to see, they will think violence is the way forward. If they lose in November, they will think violence is the way forward. They will not learn a lesson. They have only one song and know only one dance. There is no compromise with these people, and there should be no appeasement of them either.

Democratic Candidate Who Attacked Opponent on ‘Bigfoot Erotica’ Says We Should Negotiate With the Taliban

There’s a new controversy brewing in the House of Representatives race in Virginia’s 5th Congressional District between Republican candidate Denver Riggleman and Democratic candidate Leslie Cockburn, and this one has nothing to do with Bigfoot.

At a Monday night debate, the Washington Free Beacon reports, Cockburn actually said that the United States needs to negotiate with the Taliban if we want to get out of the war in Afghanistan — which turned 17 on October 7 this year.

“One problem is that the patron of the Taliban is Pakistan,” Cockburn said. “We have to negotiate with the Taliban and Pakistan in order to leave that war, and I think that this should be a matter of diplomacy, and it needs to happen now.”

Cockburn says this opinion is informed by her time as a journalist covering three separate wars at different times in Afghanistan’s history.

Riggleman, by contrast, served as an Air Force intelligence officer during the early days of the War on Terror and said in a recent ad that his team helped plan some of the initial bombing runs over Afghanistan after 9/11.

To push back against Riggleman’s resume, Cockburn asserted that because, as an intelligence officer working from the Afghan theater at a naval support station, he had a minor role, the Free Beacon continues. To her claims, he responded, “I’m not going to defend my military service.”

You may remember this race from the previous media attention it received following Cockburn’s claims that Riggleman was into “Bigfoot erotica” over some Instagram photos that Riggleman later explained were the result of a running inside joke between him and his Air Force buddies.

White Male Dem Calls on House Females to Protest ‘White Men Senators’

Rep. John Garamendi, a California Democrat with white skin, went on a curious rant against his congressional white male colleagues, calling out the senators in charge of Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination proceedings as — what, racism against Christine Blasey Ford? Misogyny? . . .

“Women for decades have faced this situation,” Garamendi said, Breitbart reported. “They have always when they come forward with an accusation of assault or rape. They become the victim in the hearing. And we have to put a stop to that. Women across this nation should be outraged at what these white men senators are doing to this woman. This woman needs a fair hearing, as every woman does who brings forth a charge such as professor Ford is bringing forth.”

Joy Behar, co-host of “The View,” made a similar charge against the senators on the Judiciary Committee, calling them out for being “white men, old by the way,” protecting a man, Kavanaugh, who’s “probably guilty,” she said.

But Garamendi is a white guy — taking political potshots at his fellow white guys. Odd argument to make, it would seem. Moreover, he’s calling on his female House mates — ostensibly, the white ones, too — to mount a sort of rebellion against these white senators. (So perhaps it is misogyny, not racism, that he’s alerting to here?) . . .

His words: “I would expect to see the women representatives in the House of Representatives rise up in anger and disgust at what the Senate Republican men are doing. Ramming through this hearing without an adequate opportunity for professor Ford to gather together the witnesses that she may need, that the public needs, that the Senate needs, and the investigation that can be done by the FBI. I would expect the female members of the House … joined in by members such as myself to march over to the Senate and to protest loudly and clearly on behalf not only of professor Ford, but on behalf of the women of America.” (Read more from “White Male Dem Calls on House Females to Protest ‘White Men Senators'” HERE)

Congressman Calls for Military Coup Against Trump

On Monday, after President Trump’s inflammatory remarks concerning the U.S. intelligence community, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) seemingly called for a military coup to overthrow Trump:

. . .

Cohen has made his feelings quite clear when it comes to President Trump; Speaking with MSNBC in January, Cohen snapped, “Donald Trump is the most despicable human being to ever reside at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue … a narcissistic sociopath doesn’t change. It endangers the country. And war … is something he could get into to improve the rating for the [20]18 elections, where [Republicans] are in desperate shape. And will do anything to improve ratings.”

Billionaire Democrat Donor Calls for ‘Nuclear War’ to Stop Trump

Billionaire Democrat donor Tom Steyer called for a “nuclear war” to stop President Trump — then took back his comment after the interviewer called his point “sobering.”

“Maybe we can have, like, a nuclear war and then we get a real course correction,” Steyer told The Rolling Stone in an interview published Friday. He was elaborating on his belief that it is imperative for Congress to impeach Trump immediately, because the “checks and balances system” set up in the constitution isn’t working, and the only other option is to wait around for economic disaster and war. . .

DICKINSON: In a recent interview you suggested not impeaching Trump is normalizing him. What do you mean?

STEYER: Once you don’t speak up against lawlessness, lawlessness is permitted. …

It’s like being at a dinner party and somebody makes a racial slur and you speak up and say, ‘I think that’s really wrong, and you should take that back,’ and everyone says, ‘Ooooh, you’re making a big fuss here.’ Like, yeah, we’re making a big fuss – because something is wrong. Everyone’s acting as though it’s somehow impolite to stand up for American democracy.

Billionaire Dem Running for Governor Is Caught Making Insensitive Remarks About Black Politicians

A Democratic candidate for governor of Illinois is apologizing for racially insensitive comments captured on an FBI wiretap between him and then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

The billionaire businessman candidate, J.B. Pritzker, was heard suggesting Blagojevich appoint Secretary of State Jesse White to a Senate seat, calling him the “least offensive” African-American.

Pritzker, who’s considered the frontrunner in the March 20 primary, said Tuesday he regretted portions of the conversations recorded during a decade-old investigation of Blagojevich, who’s now imprisoned for convictions that included trying to trade an appointment to Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat for campaign cash.

“I regret the conversations in many ways, the words that I used, and the things that I didn’t say on that call that I would have preferred to have said. … I can do better and I have,” Pritzker said. “I clearly made a mistake that day and I clearly wasn’t my best self.”

Pritzer’s family has influenced Chicago politics for decades. His sister, Penny, served as commerce secretary under Obama. (Read more from “Billionaire Dem Running for Governor Is Caught Making Insensitive Remarks About Black Politicians” HERE)
