The Squad: America Is “Garbage” and Holocaust Has “Calming Effect”

SQUAD MEMBER, Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), raised more eyebrows and new alarms when she gave a speech on 12/15/22 using her native Somali language, repeatedly calling the Somali leader, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, “Our President,” adding, “Somalia is our home.” It had been unseen, overlooked, or forgotten until the video re-surfaced on Tuesday after calls for Omar to be expelled from Congress, stripped of her naturalized U.S. citizenship, and deported over a similar speech she gave on Saturday to Somalians in Minneapolis.

Saturday’s speech gave lavish praise to Mohamud, who was also addressing the group. She added, “We are very happy that Hassan is our president. Somalia is our home,” and other disturbing statements of loyalty to a terrorist haven. (Versions of the 2022 translated speech are here, here, and here.)

Other Squad news includes Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), is said to be facing a “criminal probe” by The so-called Justice Department. On Tuesday, the House Sergeant-at-Arms reportedly received a grand jury subpoena for documents relating to an alleged misuse of government funds by a legislator, who was confirmed by multiple sources to be Cori Bush, the Black Lives Matter and Defund the Police activist turned Squad member in 2020.

It is believed she is being investigated over multiple Federal Election Commission complaints made against her. At least one was about payments exceeding three-quarters of a million dollars she made to her now-husband, unlicensed for duty in his private security business. (It’s sort of an à la Rep. Omar’s $2.8 million payment to her husband for a year of ‘consultacy,’ or Ga. A.G. Fani Willis and her payment of over $650,000 to paramour Nathan Wade.)

The House seems likely to comply with the subpoena.

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) accused Walgreens of racial discrimination over store closures, calling it “racist.” The pharmacy chain has faced a much lower market cap lately due largely to extraordinarily shoplifting in crime-ridden areas.

And in a petty, catty snipe, snowflake and Rep. Omar demanded Rep. Troy Nehls apologize for calling Rep. Cori Bush “loud.” He had merely said, “She doesn’t even support the police. But the idea to pay her thug money to try to help protect her this and that, for what? Maybe if she wouldn’t be so loud all the time, maybe she wouldn’t be getting threats.”

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Rep. Cori Bush were the only two House members to voted against a bill, H.R. 6679, barring Hamas and other terrorists in the Oct. 7th jihadist attack on Israel from entering the U.S. Tlaib is of Palestinian descent.

And Rep. Alexandia Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has been demanding that funding be restored to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency despite disturbing reports its members aided the Hamas terrorists in their Oct. 7th attack.

Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) is now trying to explain his conspiracy theories concerning the 9/11 terror attacks. The best he could come up with was expressing regret and deleting posts he made about them. He recently had to try to explain why he pulled a fire alarm, sans fire, at the capitol in the final hours of governmental shutdown negotiations. He was ultimately censured.

Talk about garbage…

But Are The Crows Black or White?

JUSTICE CLARENCE THOMAS is loathed by the woke. For one thing, he’s black and conservative which is, I suppose, sort of like being a wolf and a vegan to them. The combination isn’t supposed to exist. Yet somehow, it does. This is because black people, remarkably, don’t like being treated like helpless, unproductive, and unintelligent people who must rely on a beneficent government simply to survive. The woke are also ‘triggered’ by the fact that Thomas has not recused himself on cases involving political questions )think abortion) or that his conservative wife, Ginni, may have taken a position on in her personal capacity. Dem Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) has called for Thomas’ impeachment.

The radical left has managed to push through an astonishing number of the Biden regime’s initiatives, albeit, at a huge cost to the nation’s highly mortgaged future. A big item that remains, however, is a nice Supreme Court nomination to push through more woke agenda items well into the future. Towards that end, a story not-so-mysteriously broke that Thomas has an ethics problem. Specifically, on Thursday, it was alleged he illegally received lavish gifts from a G.O.P. donor. Who is/are the donor(s)? Harlan and Kathy Crow. They happen to be “among our dearest friends…for over 25 years,” said Thomas in a statement released by the Court,” adding, “As friends do, we have joined them on a number of family trips during the more than a quarter century we have known them.” Crow is a conservative businessman. The trips involved flights on his private jet, trips on his yacht, or stays at his properties, according to ProPublica, which reported the story. 

Thomas did not report these trips as gifts. According to Thomas, he sought guidance early on about whether there was any reporting requirement and was told that “this sort of personal hospitality from close personal friends, who did not have business before the Court, was not reportable,” adding that he has “always sought to comply with the disclosure guidelines.” Given justices have to file disclosure forms annually concerning gifts, this seems likely. He also said that the disclosure guidelines were going to be changed by the Judicial Conference of the United States and will then include a requirement to disclose some, but not all free travel. He added, obviously, he intended to comply with the guidelines. 

Obviously, Thomas has an affirmative duty to comply with ethics rules. Ignorance isn’t an excuse for anyone, especially a judge, but assuming he sought guidance, as he maintains, Dems should be estopped from politically interfering in the judiciary. 

In Which Mr. McCarthy Goes To Washington and ‘Does Something’…

REP. ILHAN OMAR (D-Minn.) ALMOST SEEMS TO BE A FOREIGN AGENT, but one can’t think that because she is ‘a woman of color,’ or ‘person of color,’ if one is to be politically correct, which I most assuredly am not, ever. Because, you know, ‘persons of color’ never do anything wrong, and if you think they do, then you’re a racist. Omar has never had a good word for the U.S., and clearly hates the country to the point I’m left wonder why she doesn’t go back to her nation of origin, Somalia, and fix shit there instead of allegedly marrying her brother so he could immigrate to the U.S.. She also detests U.S.-ally, Israel, and is unapologetically antisemitic, which should be a per se disqualifier. 

Omar has been so offensive in her very public anti-American, anti-Israeli rhetoric, most in the G.O.P. were overjoyed last week when House Speaker Kevin McCarthy got her canned from the coveted House Foreign Affairs Committee. Omar had been inappositely put there by former Speaker Nancy Pelosi in one of her worst decisions in the House of Representatives. The floor vote last week was 218-211, primarily along party lines. (Rep. David Joyce (R-Ohio) voted “present.”)

It was the voice vote that was most memorable, however. Screeching, howling, bitching, and whining are apt adjectives to describe some of the theatrics by ‘Squad members’ in particular. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, replete with aggressive arm thrashing, called the vote “about targeting women of color in the United States of America.” Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) screamed it was all about the G.O.P. “weaponizing hate against a black, beautiful Muslim woman!” (Video.)

This is the Democrat party projecting again. They scream ‘racist!’ to the G.O.P. when it is they who are the racists. For example, in 2012, before entering Congress, Omar tweeted, “Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel.” She defended the tweet on CNN. Again, in 2019, she tweeted that Jewish money was buying the support of American lawmakers: “It’s all about the Benjamins,” she concluded. Other examples can be read here. Suffice to say, a resolution to denounce such ‘hate’ was aimed at Omar, and only watered down to pass. It’s the anti-Americanism that’s most troubling, however. Her most infamous comment described the 9/11 terrorist attacks, killing 3,000 Americans, as the time “some people did something.” It’s about time the G.O.P. did something…

Pelosi and Her 12 Disciples (+a Spare)

IT WAS GETTING A BIT LATE ON FRIDAY NIGHT when the U.S. House of Representatives realized it was getting late and they weren’t at their house for a glorious autumn weekend in their ‘woke’ world. The realization subordinated any thoughts of the fiscal future. But there they all were, ready to give the illegitimate occupant of the White House, Joe Biden, and his legislative evil half-twin, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a huge victory by getting the ginormous “Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework” to the floor for a dizzying vote.

Left to their own devices, Democrats would’ve failed fair and square. Enter the G.O.P. Thirteen RINOs, for some reason impossible to quite grok, rescued Biden and Pelosi by voting for the $1.2 trillion (with a ’t’) package that has almost nothing at all to do with infrastructure and a lot to do with creating new regulations and enforcing them. The so-called progressives in the party had agreed to vote for this package in exchange for Pelosi making a deal with with more moderate members to vote on the massive $1.75 trillion (‘with.a bigger ’t’) social spending bill to vote the behemoth up or down no later than November 15th. The radicals in the party, known colloquially as the “Squad,” weren’t buying that bill of goods, however. Reps, Ilhan Omar, Cori Bush, Jamaal Bowman, Rashida Tlaib, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Ayanna Pressley were fully prepared to let Biden twist in the wind without the legislative victory.

All it took in the final analysis, though, was some pork. As long as the 13 G.O.P. traitors could bring home the bacon, if not for their constituents then for themselves, it was all good. There was nothing principled about it: not one blessed red cent was earmarked for the border wall. Several are from high tax states and may have gotten a backdoor deal to get SALT deductions reinstated through the upcoming massive spending bill. (Trump had stupidly eliminated it in his inappropriately named “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” that only helped the lower class by punitive tax increases on the middle class in blue states.)

The 13 RINO sell-outs include: Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (PA), Don Bacon (NE) (yes, really), Don Young (AK), Fred Upton (MI), Adam Kinzinger (IL), Jeff Van Drew (NJ), John Katko (NY), Tom Reed (NY), Andrew Garbarino (NY), Nicole Malliotakis (NY), Chris Smith (NJ), David McKinley (WV), and Anthony Gonzalez (OH).

ALL SHOULD BE PRIMARIED!

Show Up or Get Out.

WOODY ALLEN IS QUOTED as saying, “Showing up is 80 percent of life,” but apparently not for Republicans. 

It was an important bill: spending of $1.9 billion for Capitol security. The Democrats (most of them, anyway) really wanted it even though most of them want to “defund” the police that make our communities somewhat secure. Go figure.

A Republican congressman, Ken Calvert (CA) f^cked up bad. He had been voting by proxy for his colleague, Rep. John Carter (R-TX) throughout the week, something that was allowed by virtue of the pandemic, thanks to Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Carter had submitted the proper paperwork to give Calvert the authority to vote by proxy. But on May 20th, Calvert just forgot to cast Carter’s vote against the bill. 

Unfortunately, the bill passed — by one vote — 213-212. 

Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL) may have been another “nay,” but he, as a matter of principle, didn’t vote because he’s opposed to proxy-voting and wasn’t able to vote in-person. 

Lovely. These three Republicans need to be primaried at the earliest time possible.

One vote really mattered. Most of the so-called “squad” voted against the spending bill, not because they opposed most of the spending. They simply didn’t want any police funding. This included Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), as well as Cori Bush (D-MO). Squad members Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib (D-MN) voted present, along with Jamaal Bowman (D-NY). All other Democrats voted Aye. All Republicans present voted Nay.

Now it goes to the Senate where Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) says he doesn’t even know how they will spend all the money. Lovely.

How about giving the money back to the rightful owners? You know, the taxpayers?

A.O.C. Nominates Bernie at Biden’s Nominating Convention

The Democrat’s nominating convention this week is necessarily scaled down and virtual because of the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic that they’ve stoked to, among other things, prevent the president from having his massive public rallies where he’s able to generate enthusiasm and stay in the forefront of people’s minds.

TV ratings for their shindig are paltry, but for those tuned in Tuesday evening, they were in for something they could dish about at the water cooler at work, if they still had a job at a still-existing company at a still-open worksite with still-social co-workers. 

It was “squad member” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) sixty+ seconds of infamy. Democrat handlers thinking they’d shush the firebrand by limiting here to a 60-second taped soundbite were sadly mistaken. Despite her strict time limit, she managed to horrify and confuse some viewers. Not only did she not even utter Biden’s name, she seconded the nomination of her mentor and former presidential contender, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). 

According to convention rules, formal nominations are required for any candidate surpassing a delegate threshold, which Sanders certainly did. Thus, it was purely procedural. Former president of the United Auto Workers Bob King nominated Sanders which A.O.C. seconded. 

Sanders had suspended his campaign on April 8th, and formally endorsed Biden, but at the time, Biden hadn’t secured the requisite 1,991 pledged delegates. By June 5th, he did. After Tuesday night’s roll call, Biden had 3,558, and Sanders, 1,151 delegates. 

Sanders spoke at the convention on Monday night. A.O.C. congratulated Biden by tweet afterwards. No bad feelings here!  Right …

Flushing Queens’ Terlets of the A.O.C. Turd

Yes, the Washington swamp needs to be drained, but let’s just start by flushing the terlet of the turd named Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (widely known as simply, “A.O.C.”) in New York’s Democrat primary on Tuesday. The Ty-D-Bowl man will earn hazardous duty pay for this, but if challenger Michelle Caruso-Cabrera wins, we’ve made a good start cleaning up the shitty mess.

Some People Deserve to Live in Third-World Hellholes…

…like this brain-dead Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who appears to be the product of some serious inbreeding back in the toxic waste dumps of Somalia.

The Tiny Exogenous Catalyst of the Great Stock Market Crash of 2020

Vast fortunes have been lost with the precipitous and near-apocalyptic Stock Market Crash of 2020, which was caused primarily (though not exclusively) by the novel coronavirus (dubbed COVID-19) and the subsequent pandemic and panic that ensued. 

Isn’t it Time to Squelch the Squad?

I’m so sick of hearing from the so-called “Squad,” I could vomit.  To try to prevent that unfortunate outcome, I will necessarily try to be brief.  I sincerely hope I never have to write about these idiots again, lest the nausea return with a vengeance.  

It helps that one of the troika, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, wasn’t really as involved.  

The other two trouble-makers, however, kept Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and China off the front pages, even if the latter threatened the future of the country and caused much of the volatility of the days’ stock markets.
