Georgia GOP Gov. Kemp: Swamp Creature
by JEFFREY LORD
{ spectator.org } ~ Amazing. But typical. So the news emerges that with the forced retirement for health reasons of Georgia GOP Sen. Johnny Isakson, the Republican governor of Georgia... Brian Kemp, is set to replace the conservative Isakson with financial executive Kelly Loeffler. In fact, by the time you read this, the appointment may already have been made. And what, exactly, does Kelly Loeffler believe? As noted over here at Breitbart, conservatives in Georgia are up in arms about the idea of the appointment. Breitbart reported this: Conservatives across the Georgia Republican base have sounded the alarm over Gov. Brian Kemp’s potential appointment of Kelly Loeffler as an interim Republican senator. Georgia conservative activist Debbie Dooley called her a “country club Republican” in an interview with Breitbart News. As evidence the article includes the wealthy Loeffler’s contribution history, which has two notable examples: Dooley said Loeffler “gave $750,000 to rino-Mitt Romney in 2012; she gave zero to Donald Trump in 2016.” Got that? Here you have a prominent wealthy Republican who went out of her way to give a cool three-quarters of a million bucks to establishment GOPer rino-Mitt Romney in 2012. But in 2016 when Donald Trump was taking on the establishments of both the Republican and Democratic parties, Loeffler “gave zero to Donald Trump in 2016.” Say again? That figure was — zero. Worse, now that she is suddenly on the verge of a Senate appointment — there is this: A few weeks ago, she gave $100,000 in contributions to Donald Trump, but that was only because her political consultants said, “You need to do this.” Let’s get straight to the point here. This is exactly the reason Donald Trump won the Republican nomination in the first place. Republican voters were — and are — sick and tired of establishment Republicans who fold like a cheap suit when it comes to standing up for conservative principle. And oh, yes, there’s this from that Breitbart story: Loeffler is the co-owner and co-chairman of the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) Atlanta Dream. After the Trump administration announced plans in 2018 to cut family planning funding from abortion providers such as Planned Parenthood, WNBA President Lisa Borders said that she and the league “stands with Planned Parenthood.” Yes indeed. You read that right. Loeffler stood with Planned Parenthood. The surprise here comes in the news that the idea of appointing conservative champion and Georgia Republican Congressman Doug Collins has been resisted by Republican Gov. Brian Kemp. Yes, that would be the self-same Brian Kemp for whom conservatives rallied in last year’s touch-and-go gubernatorial election against left-wing Democrat Stacey Abrams... https://spectator.org/georgia-gop-gov-kemp-swamp-creature/?utm_source=American%20Spectator%20Emails&utm_campaign=b8002f8141-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_12_03_03_58&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_797a38d487-b8002f8141-104608113 .
liar-Pelosi Chooses Climate Change
over USMCA Jobs
By Daniel John Sobieski
{ americanthinker.com } ~ Ever notice that climate change conferences are never held in places like Somalia or Bangladesh or perhaps one of those islands that are going to be under water the day after tomorrow?... They are always held in places like Copenhagen (2009) or this time in Spain, places where the elites can fly in on private jets, stay in five-star hotels, and explain why they must control every aspect of our lives lest we all die in the next dozen years. House Speaker liar-Nancy Pelosi has spent all of President Trump’s first term producing no legislation benefitting the American people while concentrating on impeachment, but who has no time to work on the U..S.-Mexico Danada Agreement (USMCA) on trade, led a Congressional delegation of Democrats on a trip to Spain where they can emit carbon dioxide bloviating about planetary climate doom. As Brietbart News reports: House Speaker liar-Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) will fly out Sunday with a large delegation of congressional Democrats heading 3,781 miles across the Atlantic to the United Nations COP25 climate change conference in Madrid. A key element of the conference will seek to place financial penalties on global commercial aviation to stop people flying and making “unnecessary contributions to atmospheric carbon dioxide pollution.” The liar-Pelosi delegation will join almost 25,000 people and 1500 journalists flying into the Spanish capital to attend the meeting. liar-Pelosi’s absence from Washington, DC, will cast doubt on the possibility of passing an updated North American trade deal by the end of 2019, a departure from her previous characterization of the deal as “imminent.” Of course, flying in 25,000 attendees is considered by the elites as a necessary contribution to atmospheric carbon dioxide pollution. Climate change supporters, not Trump supporters, are a true cult, creating a climate religion they demand we must worship. The goal is to use climate change as a means to increase government power over every aspect of our lives -- what we make, how we make it, what energy we use, what cars we drive, even what food we eat. The scientific record, as Investor’s Business Daily recently noted, shows that climate change is a scam: …a paper published recently in the journal Global Environmental Change found that carbon dioxide emissions are essentially self-regulating and that after countries reach a higher GDP level, CO2 emissions either stabilize or even decline, without the need for carbon taxes or carbon capture technology. Here in the U.S., the fracking revolution has released from our vast shale formations vast natural-gas deposits that have done more to reduce carbon emissions than any IPCC report... https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/12/pelosi_chooses_climate_change_over_usmca_jobs.html .
AG Barr Disagrees With Key Finding
In Watchdog’s Trump-Russia Report
by CHUCK ROSS
{ dailycaller.com } ~ Attorney General William Barr disagrees with a key conclusion from the Justice Department inspector general’s investigation regarding the origins of the Trump-Russia probe, according to a new report... The Washington Post, citing anonymous sources familiar with the matter, reports that Barr has told associates that he does not believe that the FBI had enough information to justify opening a counterintelligence investigation into Trump campaign associates in July 2016. Michael Horowitz, the inspector general, reportedly determined that the bureau had a solid legal basis to launch the investigation, which initially focused on four Trump campaign associates. Peter Strzok, the former FBI counterintelligence official who was fired last year over anti-Trump text messages, opened the investigation on July 31, 2016 after the FBI received information from the Australian government regarding an Australian diplomat’s May 10, 2016 meeting with George Papadopoulos, a Trump campaign adviser. The counterintelligence investigation initially looked at whether Papadopoulos and three other Trump campaign advisers — Carter Page, Michael Flynn, and Paul Manafort — were conspiring with Russia to influence the 2016 election. Former FBI officials who took part in the investigation have defended the decision to open the probe. But the special counsel’s team was unable to establish evidence of any conspiracy between Russia and members of the Trump campaign. There was also no evidence that the Trump associates acted as Russian agents, according to the special counsel’s report. Any disagreement regarding Horowitz’s conclusions is sure to renew allegations that Barr is acting in a partisan manner to support President Donald Trump. Democrats and liberal media pundits criticized Barr’s handling of the release of the special counsel’s report. Barr has also faced criticism for tapping U.S. attorney John Durham to lead an investigation of his own into the origins of the Russia investigation. Barr told lawmakers on April 10 that he believed that “spying” occurred against the Trump campaign... https://dailycaller.com/2019/12/02/william-barr-disagree-horowitz-report/?utm_source=&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=11144 .
Forget ‘Michelle for President’
By Eric Georgatos
{ americanthinker.com } ~ Our betters in the MSM, and related ruling-class mouthpieces, have set the narrative: the lackluster, too-crazy pack of Democrat presidential candidates, even with a few token billionaires, will ultimately give way to the entry of Michelle scumbag/liar-nObama into the race... The former First Lady, author of an apparently best-selling memoir, will inject palpable blue energy throughout the nation, return black America to a 95+% Democrat voting bloc, consolidate the scumbag/liar-nObama voting coalitions that won two presidential elections, and the evil interloper Trump will be sent packing. Don’t buy this narrative. In a country of 320+ million people, there is always a sizable segment who will not be willing or able to discern or question anything beyond what they are told by the MSM, and will follow the narrative. That segment is actually becoming smaller every year; the reality of fake news has diluted the MSM’s influence to a far greater degree than they understand. But that’s not why I’m not buying the narrative. Here’s why: ‘scumbag/liar-nObama’ is how we got Trump. For all the gigabytes devoted to explaining how Donald Trump was elected President of the United States, the simplest two-word explanation has always been: Barack scumbag/liar-nObama. Most Americans never agreed with the radical left-wing policies that President scumbag/liar-nObama instituted, nor did they appreciate his subtle, persistent denigration of America’s character, identity and place in the world. But Americans did salute to the notion that we should be especially careful not to criticize America’s first black President. In short, the absence of strong criticism of President scumbag/liar-nObama and his policies was not due to their popularity, but rather due to a surrender to the political reality enforced in great degree by the MSM that any such criticism would be labeled as racist. His policies and view of America were in fact alarming to many Americans, who silently bided their time until he was out of office. The truth is that Barack scumbag/liar-nObama was and is a radical leftist ideologue who in his own words sought to fundamentally transform America. A few observers saw this agenda from the beginning of scumbag/liar-nObama’s appearance on the national scene, but they were voices in a wilderness dominated by a sycophantic media. The American people never supported a fundamental transformation of their country -- in leftist terms, a shredding of America’s Judeo-Christian heritage in favor of a godless, scumbag-George Soros-vision of an Open Society, directed and controlled by almighty secular government -- and the more they understood the truth of who scumbag/liar-nObama was and what he was trying to do, the angrier and more resentful they became. Donald Trump was the anti-scumbag/liar-nObama for one simple reason: he loves America. And so…the “Michelle scumbag/liar-nObama riding on the residual goodwill of the scumbag/liar-nObama name!” campaign narrative, doesn’t resonate....

Trump-Hating Democrats are the Real Cult
By Fletch Daniels
{ americanthinker.com } ~ There has been an outbreak of cult-watchers among Democrats, as they all parrot the same talking points that President Donald Trump’s supporters are part of a cult and that he is a cult leader... A rogue’s gallery in leftist groupthink rushed to get in on the action; Dan Rather, Ana Navarro, Brian Stelter, Dana Milbank, Joy Reid, and even the Mooch, along with an entire constellation of dimbulbs. It’s a noticeable shift away from direct attacks on the president as the spears are turned on Americans who have the audacity to support him. This is perhaps because the president is such an effective counterpuncher that the attacks on him have only bound him tighter to everyday Americans while making the Democrats look foolish. So it’s now open season on Trump supporters in an evolution of the bitter-clinger and deplorable attacks. But, as scumbag/liar-Hillary learned, insulting more than sixty million Americans is not the smartest political play. The cult attack is ludicrous on its face but at least it has produced a few funny moments, such as Brian Stelter sympathetically asking his deranged guest and author of The Cult of Trump, “You say the president is using mind control. But how is it provable?” If only Democrats could end the mind control, Americans would all go back to supporting globalist America-lasters and Marxist madmen. The war on billionaires could start in earnest and we could open the Ministry of Merciful Reeducation. If there really was a cult leader and members, I would expect them to try a few of the following tactics: ...Implement institutionalized spying on political foes and the media. Even the New York Times admitted that Barack scumbag/liar-nObama’s administration spied on reporters. And as for spying on political foes, scumbag/liar-nObama’s administration practically built a new industry out of it. If, as nearly every liberal believes, Trump is the worst type of dictator, he would indeed be the most inept dictator in history in the sense that he shows no tyrannical qualities ...Cult supporters might create a giant baby balloon of a political foe and then believe that protecting that balloon was more important than protecting the president himself ...A cult leader might talk in Messianic language and say, non-ironically, that “this (his election) is the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow, and our planet began to heal.” He might be declared a “sort of God” who is standing above the world as Newsweek editor Evan Thomas once declared of scumbag/liar-nObama to noted leg-tingler, Chris Matthews. A cultlike leader might tell black Americans that Republicans want to put them back in chains, as loose lips liar-Joe Biden once did ...Cult followers might produce plays depicting the assassination of a hated political leader or a picture of a celebrity holding that leader’s severed head ...A cultlike media organization might produce nothing but “Orange Man Bad” the med covers. Perhaps Time would devolve so badly into cultlike babblings that it might produce a cover with a picture of a melting orange head. Or perhaps Newsweek could produce a cover of a cheeto-eating president in a lounge chair with the statement, “Donald Trump is bored and tired. Imagine how bad he’d feel if he did any work.” For that matter, a cultlike magazine might claim that the president was golfing and tweeting when he was visiting American troops in Afghanistan ...Cult followers might elevate a silly first-world boutique concern like climate change into a religion and then declare that the only way to address it is to destroy the global economy ...Cult members might demand a commitment to human sacrifice while obsessing over straws. Kirsten Gillibrand caught the zeitgeist of the party when she noted that Democrats should be “100 percent pro-choice, and it should be nonnegotiable.” Moloch and Chemosh approve of that message ...Cult members might form an intolerant Marxist-inspired violent extremist organization under the guise of opposing fascists... .

Chick-fil-A Funded Anti-Christian Group Tied
to Attack on Family Research Council
Todd Starnes
Todd StarnesIn 2012, domestic terrorist Floyd Corkins stormed the headquarters of the Family Research Council armed with a semiautomatic pistol, 100 rounds of ammunition, and 15 Chick-fil-A sandwiches.
“I wanted to kill the people in the building and then smear a Chick-fil-A sandwich in their face,” the gunman told the FBI.
Corkins had been enraged by the nationwide Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day and he selected the Family Research Council as a target based of a “hate” map created by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The massacre was averted when Leo Johnson, the building’s manager, tackled the rampaging gunman. Johnson’s arm was shattered by a bullet and he suffered serious injuries in the attack.
Corkins later pleaded guilty to three charges including committing an act of domestic terrorism while armed.
Now comes word that in 2017, Chick-fil-A donated money to the Southern Poverty Law Center, the same organization that created a map that nearly led to the slaughter of innocent Christians at the Family Research Council headquarters in Washington, DC.
Townhall.com published an IRS 990 form that shows the Chick-fil-A Foundation contributed $2,500 to the SPLC.
Why would Chick-fil-A donate money to an anti-Christian group like the Southern Poverty Law Center? Company officials did not return my calls seeking a comment.
Family Research Council President Tony Perkins told the “Todd Starnes Radio Show” he was stunned by the news.
“It’s time for Christians to find a fast-food alternative to Chick-fil-A,” he said.
“Tax reports have now exposed Chick-fil-A for funding the anti-Christian Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization linked in federal court to domestic terrorism after their smear campaign of Christian organizations resulted in a shooting in which the gunman planned to smear Chick-fil-A sandwiches in the faces of his victims,” Perkins said.
Perkins then revealed a shocking revelation about what happened in the aftermath of the 2012 attack.
“Dan Cathy, nor anyone with Chick-fil-A, inquired about the well-being of Mr. Johnson or any of the FRC team members, but they made a donation to the SPLC which was linked in federal court to this act of domestic terrorism,” Perkins said. “Chick-fil-A has seriously lost their way.”
Chick-fil-A recently made national headlines by ending its charitable giving to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the Salvation Army. Both organizations had been labeled as hate groups because of their positions on traditional marriage.
“Not only has Chick-fil-A abandoned donations to Christian groups including the Salvation Army, it has donated to one of the most extreme anti-Christian groups in America,” Perkins told me. “Anyone who opposes the SPLC, including many Protestants, Catholics, Jews, Muslims, and traditional conservatives, is slandered and slapped with the ‘extremist’ label or, even worse, their ‘hate group’ designation.”
Over the years, millions of Christians mobilized to fight for Chick-fil-A. They defended the company from a militant mob of LGBT activists and their supporters in the mainstream media and the Democrat Party.
The Family Research Council was one of Chick-fil-A’s most vocal defenders. So you can imagine its surprise when it discovered the company it had been fighting for all these years had been quietly giving money to an anti-Christian group that wanted to destroy FRC.
Mr. Cathy has an obligation to come forward and set the record straight for the millions of people who supported his family’s company.
And while he’s at it, perhaps he could pick up a telephone and call Mr. Johnson — a man who nearly lost his life in the culture war. It’s the decent thing to do.
But until that happens, I just cannot in good conscious spend a single penny at a fast-food restaurant that supports anti-Christian organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Farewell, Chick-fil-A. ~The Patriot Post
