Reparations

In the movement to demand reparations for past…mistreatment…of blacks, one group of Americans stands out for its absence from the collection of groups from which reparations for demands are made.

One group of Americans forced our Civil War over its demands to preserve a State’s “right” to keep slaves.

One group of Americans, in the era after our Civil War, enacted gun control laws that kept newly freed blacks and their white supporters disarmed and helpless against the depradations and atrocities inflicted on them by the Ku Klux Klan, an invention of that same group of Americans.

One group of Americans passed Jim Crow laws to deprecate, if not block outright, black Americans’ ability to vote in our elections.

One group of Americans enacted minimum wage laws explicitly to keep blacks from migrating north to compete for jobs on the basis of the wages they were willing to accept.

One group of Americans demanded an end to, and today simply seeks to ignore, our Constitution and its protections for all Americans, including blacks.

One group of Americans practices identity politics with the explicit intent of keeping black Americans separated from the rest of us Americans.

That group of Americans is the Progressive-Democratic Party and its pre-Obama administration ancestor, the Democratic Party.

I wonder why that group of Americans are exempted from demands to pay reparations.

Rhetoric and Violence

Progressive-Democrats and pressmen whine that rhetoric of violence is coming from the right at least as much as, if not more, than from the left.

But: it’s folks on left who are trying to murder Republican Congressmen, who are trying to murder conservative Justices, who are trying to murder Republican Presidential candidates.

No one is shooting at Progressive-Democrats; especially, including no one from the right is shooting at anyone on the left.

Progressive-Democratic Party politicians and pressmen both know that. Their bleatings are a measure of their dishonesty.

“Will No One Rid Us of this Troublesome Candidate?”

If you see Republicans/Conservatives in a restaurant, do not give them a moment’s peace. Come up in their faces.

Running Conservative politicians out of restaurants.

Extremist MAGA.

Extremist Republicans.

Republicans are semi-fascists.

Murder attempts against Republican Congressmen practicing baseball.

Overt threats against originalist/textualist Supreme Court Justices.

Murder attempts against Supreme Court Justices.

Overt lies about the troublesome candidate—e.g., would sign nationwide abortion ban, would cut Medicare.

Manufactured desire to put blacks back in chains.

Openly false fact “checking.”

He’s a threat to democracy.

The list of these lies and smears and assault-encouraging rhetoric by Progressive-Democratic Party politicians, by the press, by the Left in general goes on and on.

The deliberate attempt to divide Americans from each other and to pit Americans against each other began in earnest with ex-President Barack Obama (D) and his openly expressed contempt for flyover country Americans, and it has been exploded by Progressive-Democrat President Joe Biden and his Vice President and Progressive-Democratic Party Presidential candidate Kamala Harris with their extremist MAGA distortions and abortion lies.

And now we have the second assassination attempt of Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump.

A second attempt that comes against the background of President Biden and his DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas’ refusal to increase Trump’s Secret Service security after the first attempt.

This is what the Progressive-Democratic Party politicians’ carefully divisive and inflammatory rhetoric has wrought. And will continue to wreak.

These two attempts to murder a political rival, even if they’re only attempts to murder a politician who happens to be a political rival, are reason enough to elect Trump. It’s time to demonstrate to the Left that they cannot dictate to us average Americans who our political candidates will be, much less who we will elect to represent us.

This.Is.CNN

The Revisionist History Outlet more formally known as CNN is at it again. Regarding the death-by-terrorist-murder of the American-Israeli hostage, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, this is the outlet’s original headline on its Sunday article:

Israeli-American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin has died, family confirms via statement

After having been called out for their perfidious distortion aimed at whitewashing the terrorism and terrorists involved in the man’s murder, CNN “revised” its headline:

Israel’s military says six hostages ‘brutally murdered’ in Gaza, including Israeli-American Goldberg-Polin

The outlet didn’t even acknowledge the misstatement in its headline, not anywhere in its article. All the outlet had was a bare statement at the article’s bottom that This story has been updated. News articles that are published online routinely get updated as more news, or more facts, become available. There’s not a minim in CNN‘s present case regarding “updating” its headline.

Instead, the outlet has simply, and sotto voce, changed its headline while pretending the history preceding that change never existed at all.

Biden-Harris Support of Anti-Israel Terrorism Made Manifest

The Biden-Harris administration is emphasizing its dislike of Israel and its support, increasingly untacit, for the terrorist Hamas.

President Biden claimed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not doing enough to secure a hostage deal with Hamas terrorists.

And this, in responding to a reporter’s question while he’s vacationing—again—in Delaware:

Mr President, do you think it’s time for Prime Minister Netanyahu to do more on this issue? Do you think he is doing enough?
No.

And

I spoke to his [Hersh Goldberg-Polin’s] mom and dad, and we are not giving up. We are going to continue to push as hard as we can. Thank you[.]

Unfortunately, disgustingly, the pressure the “we” of the Biden-Harris administration promises to continue is on Israel. They don’t care that it’s Hamas that’s refusing every deal offered, including those to which Israel has agreed.

It would be better were the energy of that pressure applied to the terrorists and to the terrorists’ backer, Iran, instead.

But this administration, like his mentor’s administration (when Biden was Vice President) before it, actively does not like Israel and, apparently, Jews, to the extent the administration even makes excuses for the terrorists, demanding ceasefires that can only favor Hamas with their implementation.
