OK, NOW YOU’VE FINALLY DONE IT! That absurd $355 million judgement against Donald Trump is a tipping point that is likely to drive GOP and conservative voters who aren’t MAGA fanatics to line up behind the former president, according to Issues. & Insights.

Think what you will about Trump, but one point made by the I&I crew is especially important:

“Those who think this is just about Trump, or that Trump is a special case, or that once we get Trump out of the picture civility will return, are deluding themselves. If Mister Rogers ran as a conservative he’d be just as viciously attacked.

The affable Ronald Reagan was pilloried during his time in office as a warmonger, a hater, a doddering old fool and, of course, a fascist. The milquetoast, barely conservative George W. Bush was said to have ‘begun to implement the 10 steps to take down a democratic nation.’ The New Republic published a 3,600-word ‘case for Bush hatred.’ A Nobel Peace Prize recipient declared that ‘right now, I could kill George Bush’ and was feted for bravery.”

And so on and so on and so on with the Left.

THEY’RE NOT “MIGRANTS,” THEY’RE SETTLER COLONIALISTS:

AP SUED FOR USING HAMAS-LINKED PHOTOG: A lawsuit has been filed on behalf of victims of Hamas’ October 7 terrorist attack that killed more than 1,200 Israelis against the Associated Press (AP).

The suit, which cites AP for its payments to Hassan Eslaiah, a free-lance photographer with deep, long-standing ties to the terrorist group, was filed by the National Jewish Advocacy Center (NJAC). The Washington Free Beacon’s Adam Kredo reports that AP was warned five years about Eslaiah’s terrorist affiliations.

The lawsuit claims that Eslaiah’s links to Hamas “enabled him to secure photographic opportunities that would have otherwise been difficult for someone without Hamas connections and who was displaying press credentials to obtain.”

The NJAC added in a statement that “the AP paid for some of these real time images, including of Israeli hostages being taken into Gaza, despite having been warned well in advance that at least one of the so-called ‘journalists’ they were paying were in fact Hamas affiliates, and despite the clear indications that they were functioning as full participants in the Hamas terrorist squad that conducted the October 7th attack, and not as the AP chose to pretend, as journalists.”

The AP denied all of the claims in the lawsuit and issued a statement calling the litigation “baseless.”

 

THE NEW SPACE RACE:

BIDEN AND THE UN ARE BEHIND THE BORDER DISASTER: Panama’s former SENAFRONT Director points to evidence UN policies and the activities of dozens of U.S.-based and international Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) prompted the flood of illegal immigrants coming to the U.S., beginning in 2016. The Epoch Times’ Darlene Sanchez talks to Panama’s Oriel Ortega.

THE FRIENDS WHOSE GIVE SEND GO I LINKED BEFORE, HE DIED AS WAS EXPECTED. THINGS WILL BE FRAUGHT FOR HIS WIFE FOR A WHILE. MONEY DOESN’T SOLVE EVERYTHING, BUT IT HELPS:  Medical Emergency Pascals.

MAYBE — I HOPE — I’M PARANOID. OR MAYBE I’M NOT NEARLY PARANOID ENOUGH:  The Plausible Decoy.

YOU CAN’T BE RACIST AGAINST WHITES – THEY RE-JIGGERED THE DEFINITION TO ASSURE THAT:  Racism, racism everywhere – except against white people.

Of course, changing words definitions to get your way is a fool’s game. On the playground it often ends in bruises. If adults are stupid enough to play that game and try to enforce it, it usually ends considerably worse.
