FLASHBACK: Clinton campaign backs call for intelligence briefing before Electoral College vote.
Hillary Clinton’s top political adviser John Podesta said the campaign is supporting an effort by members of the Electoral College to request an intelligence briefing on foreign intervention in the presidential election.
“The bipartisan electors’ letter raises very grave issues involving our national security,” Podesta said in a statement Monday. “Electors have a solemn responsibility under the Constitution and we support their efforts to have their questions addressed.”
Just a reminder on how quick they were to roll out this bogus narrative. Another reminder: We know from the book Shattered that the Trump/Russia thing was cooked up to explain Hillary’s loss to the true believers. “Hillary declined to take responsibility for her own loss. Hillary kept pointing her finger at Comey and Russia. That strategy had been set within twenty-four hours of her concession speech. For a couple of hours [Hillary and her aides] went over the script they would pitch to the press and the public. Already, Russian hacking was the centerpiece of the argument.”
KARL MARX STATUE GETTING THE CONFEDERATE SOLDIER TREATMENT.
In the first attack in January vandals were suspected of using a hammer to damage the text of Marx’s name. In the second attack in February they are thought to have used a bigger hammer to damage the text. In the second attack they also daubed the monument in slogans painted in red including “doctrine of hate” and “architect of genocide”.
Well they aren’t wrong.
CHANGE: Gay men are increasingly voting for anti-LGBTQ right-wingers, says gay cultural historian. “Gay politics in other countries prove that LGBT people — especially gay men — are not inherently progressive voters. Give them the chance and they will vote for xenophobia, for racism, and for misogyny.”
THEY DON’T CALL HER LIEAWATHA FOR NOTHING: Elizabeth Warren Falsely Suggests She Couldn’t Go to College Because She Couldn’t Afford to Apply. “What she fails to mention is that she did go to college… She went to George Washington University… on a debate scholarship. Why was this little factoid left out of her tweet or her video?”
Because she’s a lying liar who lies. What is it about lefties — see, e.g, Hillary, Gary Hartpence, Warren Wilhelm Jr./Bill DeBlasio, etc. — that they feel have to make up a bio? Is it just that they know, deep down, that they’re horrible people and want to substitute a better version of themselves?

THE WOKE HAVE A LOT TO BE ASHAMED OF, WHICH IS WHY THEY SPEND SO MUCH TIME SHAMING OTHERS: The 1619 Project is the 2019 Project — and the 2020 Project: The New York Times is stoking the woke with a narrative of shame.
The thing to remember is, they’re bad, broken people, who turn their problems outward. They bully others because, deep down, they know they’re awful themselves.
MARYLAND GUN LAW CHALLENGED BY 21 STATES’ AGS: Speaking as the proud owner of a Remington R1 1911 handgun and a Maryland resident who has been threatened and would like very much to have a conceal-carry permit, I hope this case wins and soon. Will need something smaller than the R1, though. Any recommendations?
A FOOTNOTE TO THE CRAZINESS OF TRUMP-ERA DEMOCRATS: Noemie Emery: History will forget this impeachment. “Even a huge, screaming headline in the biggest type possible cannot lend suspense or importance to an event that began three years ago and whose outcome was never in doubt. The war to impeach President Trump has been waged at full throttle since 2016. And so, an inflection point in late 2019 is not all that striking, especially since the next stage in the drama will be to return the whole thing to the status quo ante. The impeachment proceedings against Presidents Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton had been genuine digressions from the traditional politics that had marked their first terms in office, and to which the country would later return. In contrast, our politics has been dialed up to 13 on a 1-to-10 scale since Trump was elected.”

IT IS DISTURBING ENOUGH THAT THE LEFT DREAMS OF THIS STUFF. IF THEY ACTUALLY ATTEMPTED, THEN IT WOULD BE A TIME FOR THE WORDS “ELECTRIC BOOGALOO”. FORTUNATELY THEY DON’T — TRULY, GUYS THEY DON’T — HAVE THE POWER THEY WOULD NEED: Straightforward from here! Vox sounds pretty convinced that impeachment could ultimately lead to President Nancy Pelosi.
