Colin Powell Endorses Biden

Colin Powell is a fraud.  He proclaims he is a Republican and consistently votes for Democrats.  He just announced he would not be voting for Donald Trump and will endorse Joe Biden for president instead .  Are we surprised?  It is amazing how leftists get away with things conservatives would never dream of.  Powell has a very chummy relationship with Louis Farrakhan.  Could a Republican get away with such a relationship?

Powell would also have a malpractice suit against his elementary school teachers.  Apparently he knows nothing about the founding of the U.S.

"Compromise is how this country was founded, and unless two people in disagreement with each other don’t find a way to reach out to one another and make compromises, you don’t get a consensus that allows you to move forward."

"Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities."


"Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities." - Voltaire




CNN's Ali Velshi has been nominated for the Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf Award. The former Iraqi Minister of Information sometimes referred to as Baghdad Bob.

CNN reporter Omar Jiminez reports above a chyron reading "Fiery but mostly peaceful protests after police shooting."

Ali Velshi - "I want to be clear on how I characterize this.  This is a mostly a protest.  It is not generally speaking unruly."

Theodore Dalrymple once observed:

Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

The Mainstreaming of Terrorism


The murder of George Floyd has given the Deep State a perfect opportunity to get embarrassing news off the front page and to further their agenda of dividing America.  Tucker Carlson has claimed, “Our leadership class is fanning the racial flames.”  It should be unnecessary to recount all the media distortion in the Trayvon Martin death.  This current incident needed little distortion but the repetition of coverage achieved the desired result.  Even conservatives joined the chorus of outrage.  Lou Dobbs reported, "violent demonstrations, looting and arson . . . ultimately, ultimately seemed necessary."  The violence seemed necessary.  This is also an opportunity for mass scale virtue signaling which may be counterproductive in the end.

It is predictable that George Soros would be funding activist organizations like his Open Society Foundation.  It was less obvious that political candidates and major corporations would be making large contributions.  Members of Joe Biden's campaign are contributing to organizations like the Minnesota Freedom Fund.  Apple CEO Tim Cook announced his company will be donating to groups such as the Equal Justice Initiative.  YouTube will donate $1 million toward social justice initiatives, while the CEO of Uber said his company would be donating $1 million to two criminal justice reform groups. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Facebook would donate $10 million toward groups fighting racial inequality.

These contributions may appear laudable but when the destruction mounts and the number of innocent victims increases this charity may be counterproductive.  The groups receiving this largess may appear benevolent, however, appearances may be deceiving.  Mark Zuckerberg may have a favorable view of Black Lives Matter.  He posted a memo criticized Facebook employees for defacing Black Lives Matter slogans on the company’s internal “signature wall.”  Charles Wade, a prominent Black Lives Matter organizer Leaders of Black Lives Matter have been invited to the White House.  One has spoken before the U.N.  There should be no problem contributing to such a respectable organization.  However, Charles Wade, the prominent Black Lives Matter organizer invited to the Obama White House was arrested for pimping under age girl.  Their chants may also be a problem: “Pigs In A Blanket, Fry 'Em Like Bacon!”  “What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!”

Of course there are ways of deflecting the blame to other groups. Many Deep State politicians and spokesmen claim that the riots are the work of the Russians and white supremacists.  Former New Orleans Mayor Marc Morial suggested this on CNN.  Governor Tim Walz has accused white supremacists and drug cartels.  Susan Rice claimed the Russians are meddling in the riots.  MSNBC host Joy Reid claimed the protests are going awry partially because white supremacists are getting involved.  So far no Russians or white supremacists have been apprehended.

There is an unusually large number of whites taking part in the "protests."  Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan asserted that “white men” are responsible for much of the widespread destruction.  She claimed, “I want to acknowledge that much of the violence and destruction, both here in Seattle and across the country, has been instigated and perpetuated by white men.”  She added, "they experience the height of privilege and are co-opting peaceful demonstrations.”  Of course these white are the products of the revolutionary indoctrination academies commonly referred to as public schools.


Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote, "From ancient times decline in courage has been considered the beginning of the end."  As long as people fear being called racist for enforcing reasonable prohibitions we will continue our cultural slide toward civil war.  More officials like Baltimore's Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake who “gave those (rioters) who wished to destroy space to do that as well" and Antifa advocate Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison will be elected.

Apple CEO Tim Cook sent a memo to staff that addressed the death of George Floyd
Right now, there is a pain deeply etched in the soul of our nation and in the hearts of millions. To stand together, we must stand up for one another, and recognize the fear, hurt, and outrage rightly provoked by the senseless killing of George Floyd and a much longer history of racism.
