ONLY THE ECONOMICALLY AND HISTORICALLY ILLITERATE CAN BE SHOCKED BY THIS:  California’s Proposed “Billionaire Tax” Just Cost the State $1 Trillion in Wealth.

THE LEFT SET THIS UP TO HAPPEN EXACTLY AS IT DID. AS I SAID, THEY USED TO SETUP PREGNANT WOMEN TO BE SHOT*:  You don’t know reactive abuse until you lived it.

*Every Communist revolution, every inciting incident, even Kent State, a pregnant woman gets shot by the people trying to keep the communists from destroying stuff. Sometimes she is an innocent passerby, but I’d bet you she was manipulated into being there. Because it’s constant. I refer to the incident in Minneapolis as “the left has run out of sacrificial pregnant women” for a reason.

THIS IS RIGHT, YOU KNOW?  The Western liberal media is ignoring the Iranian uprising because explaining it would force an admission it is desperate to avoid: the Iranian people are rebelling against Islam itself, and that fact shatters the moral framework through which these institutions understand the world.

FOR THE LEFT, ‘FREEDOM OF THE PRESS’ MEANS FREEDOM TO ADVANCE THEIR DESIRED NARRATIVE:  Leftist Agitators Stalk and Threaten to Kill Journalist Covering Minneapolis Unrest.

THINK OF IT THIS WAY: The left used to always set up a pregnant female to get shot. These days the best they can do is a deranged lesbian who happens to be a mother. Reality Bites.
