FLASHBACK: Terry McAuliffe defends Ralph Northam blackface scandal: "Was a dumb mistake 40 years ago”

Three years ago it was revealed that on his medical school yearbook page Virginia governor Ralph Northam, a liberal Democrat, had a photo of a man in a Ku Klux Klan hood and another in blackface. 

The leftist who wants to succeed him, Clintonista Terry McAuliffe, dismissed this outrage. He said it "was a dumb mistake forty years ago." 

If a Republican had pulled the same hateful stunt while in his mid-twenties the leftist cancel culture would have called on that person to retire from public life.

Joe Biden: "I guess I should go down" to the border but "I've haven’t had" time

There is no proof that after decades in politics that Joe Biden has ever visited the southern border.

Biden also that the "I guess I should go down" but he hasn't had time.

21 Chicago cops placed on no-pay status over Lightfoot's COVID vaccine mandate

To be sure the Democrat Party is not the party of public safety. 

Mayor Lori Lightfoot, a hardened leftist ideologue, has even stooped to calling Chicago cops who are vaccine skeptics "insurrectionists."

From WTTW Chicago:

Twenty-one Chicago police officers have been placed into non-disciplinary no-pay status for failing to comply with the city’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate as of Tuesday, Police Superintendent David Brown announced.

All city employees — including members of the Chicago Police Department — had until last Friday to tell the city whether they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Those who are not can avoid discipline by agreeing to be tested twice a week, on their own time and at their own expense, until Dec. 31.

According to Brown, about 67% of officers have provided their vaccination status to the city, and of those 82% are vaccinated. But 21 officers have refused to share their vaccination status with the city.

“This is about officer safety,” he said. “We believe the work of either getting our employees to enter their information into the portal then provide twice-a-week testing will save lives.”

As bad as Mayor Lightweight is, Cook County's so-called prosecutor, fellow Democrat Kim Foxx, is worse. But Lightfoot rarely criticizes Jussie Smollett's protector and she even endorsed Foxx for reelection last year.

VAgov: McAuliffe abruptly ends interview, tells local Virginia reporter, 'You should've asked better questions'

The left is becoming, if it isn't already there, the party of no debate. If liberals don't like something in a political conversation, they want to end that discussion. Most college campuses operate under this system.

Last month Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe said, "I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach."

Of course he doesn't. Liberals always believe know better than those not similarly enlightened. Even when it involves parents and their children. Leftists of course can point to all of their "successes," since taking control of the federal government this year, such as the supply-chain crisis, anemic job growth, more COVID deaths in 2021 than 2020 (when the mean Tweeter was president), and of course the Afghanistan debacle. 

This week an ABC affiliate interviewed both McAuliffe and his Republican rival.

More from Fox News:

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe cut his interview short with a local Virginia TV station and scolded the reporter for not asking "better questions." WJLA 7News reporter Nick Minock conducted interviews with the former governor and his GOP rival Glenn Youngkin, sharing highlights on air while releasing the full interviews and transcripts online.

However, WJLA anchor Jonathan Elias offered a disclaimer to viewers who may notice that Youngkin's interview was much longer than McAuliffe's.

"So if you watch those entire interviews on our website, we do want to point out that the Terry McAuliffe interview is shorter than our interview with Glenn Youngkin. That was not by our doing," Elias told viewers during Tuesday's evening newscast. "Nick offered both candidates 20 minutes exactly to be fair for the interviews.

McAuliffe abruptly ended 7News' interview after just 10 minutes and told Nick that he should have asked better questions and that Nick should have asked questions 7News viewers care about. That's what he said."

Buttigieg has been on paternity leave since August as supply chain crisis worsened

America is in crisis. If Mayor Pete can't do his job then he should quit. Why wasn't his absence reported until now? 

Family is important, yes. But liberals tell us all of the time that government service is a higher calling. 

From Fox News:

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has been on paternity leave since mid-August – with his time off coming amid the Biden administration's efforts to quell the supply chain crunch and the ongoing infrastructure debate on Capitol Hill to move forward with President Biden's agenda.

Buttigieg's office told Politico Playbook this week that he has been off since mid-August to spend time with his husband, Chasten, as they welcomed two newborn babies.

"For the first four weeks, he was mostly offline except for major agency decisions and matters that could not be delegated," a spokesperson for the Department of Transportation told Politico Playbook this week.

"He has been ramping up activities since then." The spokesperson said that as he slowly gets back to the grind, Buttigieg will "continue to take some time over the coming weeks to support his husband and take care of his new children."

Then again is Buttigieg even qualified to be Transportation secretary? Prior to running for president his job was mayor of South Bend, Indiana. The small Indiana city has a bus fleet of 60 vehicles.

Bidenflation: Social Security cost-of-living-adjustment highest in 40 years

High inflation has arrived. Here's the latest evidence.

From AP:

Millions of retirees on Social Security will get a 5.9% boost in benefits for 2022. The biggest cost-of-living adjustment in 39 years follows a burst in inflation as the economy struggles to shake off the drag of the coronavirus pandemic. 

Millions of retirees on Social Security will get a 5.9% boost in benefits for 2022. The biggest cost-of-living adjustment in 39 years follows a burst in inflation as the economy struggles to shake off the drag of the coronavirus pandemic.

"It goes pretty quickly," retiree Cliff Rumsey said of the cost-of-living increases he’s seen. After a career in sales for a leading steel manufacturer, Rumsey lives near Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. He cares at home for his wife of nearly 60 years, Judy, who has advanced Alzheimer’s disease. Since the coronavirus pandemic, Rumsey said he has noted price increases for food, wages paid to caregivers who occasionally spell him and personal care products for Judy, not to mention energy costs.

The COLA affects household budgets for about 1 in 5 Americans. That includes Social Security recipients, disabled veterans and federal retirees, nearly 70 million people in all. For baby boomers who embarked on retirement within the last 15 years, it will be the biggest increase they’ve seen.

Is this good news for seniors? No, says USA Today. Bidenflation is here. You just can't pump gobs money into the economy without high inflation emerging.

Leftists who traveled to Boston Marathon to protest Kyrsten Sinema while she ran made the trip for nothing--the senator didn't participate

Leftists are annoying but they can be entertaining. Sen Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) has been stalked over the last couple of weeks--a couple of radicals even followed her in to a ladies restroom as the harangued her because she doesn't support her party's massively expensive and bloated $3.5 billion infrastructure bill.

Sinema is a runner--and was entered to participate in yesterday's Boston Marathon--so some activists traveled to Massachusetts to pester her over that bill. 

They even printed expensive signs. 

But Sinema had the last laugh. A foot injury sidelined her--and she didn't run in Boston yesterday.

Child actors were hired by Canadian firm to appear in bizarre Kamala Harris Space Week video

Last week, in conjunction with World Space Week, a strange video with Vice President Kamala Harris, cackle and all, was released. Harris discusses space travel in her loopy voice as she met with presumably average children at the vice presidential residence. 

Only they weren't. 

From the Daily Mail:

Grinning school-age children who took part in a NASA YouTube video about space exploration with Kamala Harris have been revealed to be child actors.

The 'Get Curious with Vice President Harris' video was filmed in August and tweeted out by the Vice President on October 7 to celebrate World Space Week.

It appeared to viewers that the children she was with were all normal kids.

However it has now been revealed that they are paid actors who auditioned by sending in a monologue and three questions they would ask a world leader.

Can this story get any worse for Harris? 

In the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration things always get worse. 

The vice president's office hired a Canadian company, appropriately named Sinking Ship Entertainment, to produce the video. The shoot was done in mid-August, as the Taliban was overrunning Afghanistan. 

Here is the space ship wreck of a video.

September: Another terrible jobs month

After a terrible August jobs report comes an even worse September report. 

This is the Joe Biden economy.

From CNBC:

The US economy created jobs at a much slower-than-expected pace in September, a pessimistic sign about the state of the economy though the total was held back substantially by a sharp drop in government employment. 

Nonfarm payrolls rose by just 194,000 in the month, compared with the Dow Jones estimate of 500,000, the Labor Department reported Friday. The unemployment rate fell to 4.8%, better than the expectation for 5.1% and the lowest since February 2020.

More.. 

“This is quite a deflating report,” said Nick Bunker, economic research director at job placement site Indeed. “This year has been one of false dawns for the labor market. Demand for workers is strong and millions of people want to return to work, but employment growth has yet to find its footing.”

No charges after Chicago gunfight because Kim Foxx says the shooters were "mutual combatants"

Wow. Shooting each other, except in cases of self-defense, is against the law, or so I thought, in Chicago.

Kim Foxx, the Cook County state's attorney, doesn't just need to resign but I suggest that her license to practice law should be suspended as well.

Oh, I'm not an attorney but I'm pretty sure dueling is against the law in Illinois too.

From the New York Post:

Prosecutors told investigators the allegations were dropped because the shootout involved “mutual combatants,” according to a police report obtained by the Sun-Times.

Lightfoot and several West Side aldermen also sent Foxx a letter asking her to reconsider the decision, saying the suspects who opened fire were not acting in self-defense while noting that the gun battle was caught on a police camera, WFLD reported.

“As a result, we simply do not understand the decision not to seek felony charges, like attempted murder, against the remaining two offenders who initiated the gunfight,” the letter read.

Lightfoot and the aldermen said the “brazen violence” needed to be met with “swift and certain accountability” or it would lead to more “lawlessness” throughout the city.

The gun battle took place on the West Side between two factions of the Four Corner Hustlers gang. Lightfoot's criticism of Foxx, who is close to her political rival in the Democratic Party, Toni "Taxwinkle" Preckwinkle, is rare--but much needed. Politically it's probably too late for the mayor. Even more than Lightfoot's weak approach to fighting violent crime, Foxx's catch-and-release so-called prosecution of criminals is a threat to public safety in Chicago and the suburbs. 

But the ultimate blame for this ongoing debacle in Chicago are the Cook County voters--not me because I voted for the Republican candidate both times--who twi Kim Foxx into office. You are stupid.

Three killed and at least 43 wounded over weekend in Chicago

Two people were shot to death and at least 43 others were wounded in the first weekend of October. A third person was killed in a hit-and-run involving a car chase that included a gun fight. 

Among the wounded was a man who was shot after refusing to hand over the keys to his SUV.

Last week Kim Foxx, the catch-and-release Cook County "prosecutor," claimed in a Tweet that the murder rate remains "flat." It's not.

The ⁦@FBI⁩ data shows the pain & anguish resulting from homicide is not unique to Chicago. While the homicide rate remains flat, the data reiterates that we must re-up the call for investments in the communities most impacted by violence. https://t.co/Yi6ylAlUfi

Chicago Bears appear headed to suburbs as they buy Arlington Park

The exodus from Chicago continues. Macy's and the Gap have bailed on North Michigan Avenue, which was hit hard by two waves or riots last year.

And now the Chicago Bears appear to be on the move too. Late last night news broke that the NFL charter franchise purchased Arlington Park, a horse racing track, in suburban Cook County. The race course closed this month for good.

This is huge. Off of the top of my head--of the cities with teams in all four major sports leagues only Philadelphia and Denver have teams that play their home games in the core city--or have never had one of their teams call one of their suburbs home.

In seemingly unrelated news, CWB Chicago is reporting that on Monday the city's police commissioner, David Brown, in a speech said that car jackings are "down" in Chicago. That is a lie and Brown knows it. Also on that same day Cook County's so-called prosecutor, Kim Foxx, in a Tweet claimed that "the homicide rate remains flat." Wrong. Murders this year are up slightly over 2020 and much higher than in 2019.

Gutfeld: What happened to the adults we were promised in the Biden admininstration?

FBI stats show that South Bend, Indiana among America's most violent cities

As Joe Biden's presidency crumbles--and the unpopularity of his vice president, Kamala Harris, exceeds his--there is already talk of who will be the Democratic nominee in 2024. 

One of those possibilities is Transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg. Prior to his 2020 president run Buttigieg was mayor of South Bend, Indiana. 

How are things now in South Bend? Yesterday the FBI released crime statistics for 2020 and the Detroit News compiled a list based on those numbers and creating a worst-ten for violent crime in cities. 

Memphis topped the list with Detroit placing second. Rounding out the list is St. Louis, Little Rock, South Bend, Cleveland, Milwaukee, Kansas City, Missouri, Lansing, Michigan, and Springfield, Missouri. 

Yes, Mayor Pete's South Bend is among the ten with the northern Indiana city suffering from 1,765 violent crimes in 2020 that translates to a rate of 1,706.09 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

Okay, okay, I get it. Buttigieg hasn't been mayor of South Bend since New Year's Day in 2020. But the spike in violent crimes goes back years, beginning in 2012, when Mayor Pete was sworn into office. 

Buttigieg's successor, James Mueller, was a childhood friend of Mayor Pete as well as a onetime chief of staff of his. Buttigieg endorsed Mueller in the 2019 Democratic Primary for South Bend mayor and Mueller easily won in the general election in this heavily Democratic city. 

Eight killed and at least 54 others wounded, including a cop, over weekend in Chicago

Victory Boyd's invitation to perform our National Anthem at NFL Kickoff Game cancelled because she chose not to get vaccinated for religous purposes

I heard Mike Gallagher discussing this story on his radio show, which only the Epoch Times and the Daylight Post are covering as of this morning. 

Victory Boyd is an African-American woman--which normally the mainstream media would fall overthemselves to defend--but because she is basing her decision not to get vaccinated on religious grounds, the media for now just shrugs and says, "Nothing to see here, please move on."

Because of the cancellation Boyd won't collect a $20,000 appearance fee.

From the Daylight Post:

An appearance by Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter Victory Boyd to perform the National Anthem at the NFL's Sept. 9 season-opening game in Tampa Bay was canceled by the league because she declined for religious reasons to be vaccinated against the CCP Virus.

"As I understand that Victory will not be fully vaccinated by the time of the Kickoff game, she would not have been able to comply with the terms of the Game Day Field Access Policy," NFL Senior Director for Media and Entertainment Events Seth Dudowsky told Boyd's father and manager, John Boyd, in an Aug. 31 email made available to The Epoch Times.

"And as a result, we unfortunately will not be able to invite Victoria to perform the national anthem at this year's Kickoff game," Dudowsky said.

Raymond James stadium is an open-air venue. Presumably Boyd would have performed mid-field, which is usually quite empty when our National Anthem is sung at sporting events.

Rachel Maddow, Rolling Stone magazine fall for fake news COVID story from Oklahoma

One of the ongoing false narratives that the mainstream media is that rural Americans--meaning Donald Trump voters--are unsophisticated yokels. And perhaps dangerous ones as they may be recklessly spreading COVID-19. Or harming themselves with bizarre treatments. 

Rachel Maddow leads this latest fake news parade.

From Fox News:

MSNBC host Rachel Maddow was excoriated on social media this week after failing to delete a tweet containing false information about hospitals in Oklahoma being overrun with coronavirus patients overdosing on Ivermectin, a parasite-fighting medication that can also be sold over the counter as a veterinary drug.

Maddow was previously criticized over the Thursday tweet, along with a number of other media figures, for spreading the false story without verifying it's authenticity after the hospital system in question denied the source's claim that people were being treated for the overdoses.

"Patients overdosing on ivermectin backing up rural Oklahoma hospitals, ambulances"

"'The scariest one I’ve heard of and seen is people coming in with vision loss,' he said."https://t.co/P909GtxBQZ

— Rachel Maddow MSNBC (@maddow) September 2, 2021

The story, which was originally reported at Oklahoma's KFOR-TV news, quoted testimony from Dr. Jason McElyea claiming that hospitals in a rural part of Oklahoma were being overrun with patients overdosing on the drug, causing gunshot victims to have to wait to be treated.

It was later deemed false after the Northeastern Hospital System denied any patients were treated for overdoses from the drug and that McElyea hadn't actually worked at one of the hospitals in question for two months.

Rolling Stone ran with the story too but later issued a correction.

My friends you are constantly being lied to by the media. 

Six killed and at least 57 wounded over Labor Day weekend in Chicago, eight of those shot were children

The pro-criminal policies of Cook County state's attorney Kim Foxx and Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot continue--and the carnage continues too.

Over Labor Day weekend six Chicagoans were shot to death and at least 57 others were wounded. Of those shot, eight of them were children. One of the slain was 4-year-old Mychal Moultry Jr, who was shot by stray bullets as he was getting a haircut inside a home. Moultry doesn't live in Chicago, he was visiting the South Side with his family, they are from Alabama.

So far in 2021 at least 280 children have shot shot in Chicago--35 of them fatally.

A recent poll by WGN TV/Emerson College shows that only slightly one-third of Chicagoans approve of the job Kim Foxx is doing. How did Foxx respond? With the race card. John Kass gives us her comments.

And we need to stop oversimplifying the criminal justice system and critically examine all the factors influencing violence in our communities.This means not relying on data from a cherry-picked poll that only examines two actors in a broad system and who happen to be Black women.

Foxx is an embarrasment. And a deadly one too. 

According to Hey Jackass of Chicago's 2021 murder victims over 80-percent of them were African-American.

It's falling apart for "Swampy Joe" Biden. 

Independents are running away from him now.

Blog post headline from Hollywood writer: Oh my f*cking god, get the f*cking vaccine, you f*cking f*cks

Some Hollywood producer and writer, one that I never heard of, Wendy Molyneux, exposes her as a typical leftist. Despite their apparent charm and intelligence, they aren't far removed from the rambling loon you find on a city bus every once in a while. 

Oh, there were no asterisks in the headline. 

 Here's how she ends her blog post, which comes from a site named McSweeney's:

There is ONE person remaining in your life who wants to fucking save you from drowning in your own fucking lungs, you fucking fuckshit fuckdick, so for god’s sake, get your fucking ass out of your chair, go to the fucking pharmacy, and get a fucking vaccine, you absolute conscienceless fucking fuck fuck fuck. Get it. Get the fucking vaccine. Fuck you. Fuck fuck fuck. Fuck. Fuck you. Fuck!

Oh, if you need to know, I am fully vaccinated. It was my choice.

Oh, the survival rate from COVD-19 for people under 75 with no underlying health problems is about 99 percent. 

Biden lied--or was confused again--about visiting synagogue after mass shooting

Sheesh, Biden is an embarrasment.

From the New York Post:

President Biden on Thursday told Jewish leaders that he spent time at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh after the October 2018 mass murder of 11 people there — but the synagogue told The Post he never visited. 

“I remember spending time at the, you know, going to the, you know, the Tree of Life synagogue, speaking with them,” Biden said in a 16-minute virtual address ahead of the Jewish holidays Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

Barb Feige, executive director of the Tree of Life, said that Biden did not visit the synagogue in the nearly three years since the anti-Semitic attack. 

In a phone interview, Feige, executive director since July 2019, said firmly that “no” Biden didn’t visit, even before taking office when he had a lower public profile as a former vice president and then-Democratic presidential candidate.

Later Biden's army of apologists explained that Sleepy Joe merely called the synagogue.

Joe Biden caught out being 'clearly disrespectful'

"Fact-checkers" are nothing but leftist propagandists and apologists for liberal failures. 

Yes, USA Today, Joe Biden was repeatedly checking his watch during the ceremony for the return of the remains of the 13 members of our military killed in Afghanistan last week. 

GOP lawmaker rips Biden over leaked call with former Afghan president

Apparently in one of his lucid moments in July Joe Biden knew things were going poorly in Afghanistan as the Taliban seized town after town. 

What did Biden too? He called Afghan president Mohammad Ashraf Ghan and told him to change the perception in country. Rep. David Kustoff (R-TN) comments on Biden's chicanery.

Chicago driver accused of driving under the influence and running over 3 people was on probation for killing 93-year-old with his car is released on a recognizance bond

How many times do I have to repeat myself? The primary responsibility of governement is to protect people.

Cook County courts--and so-called Cook County prosecutor Kim Foxx don't understand at all.

From CBS Chicago:

Rayon Allen was on probation for killing a woman in a 2018 hit and run. 

But five months after a judge sentenced him, police said the Chicago man plowed down more pedestrians in East Lakeview Sunday morning. 

As CBS 2’s Marie Saavedra reported, the rampage of reckless driving ended early Sunday morning at Broadway and West Sheridan Road. The black iron fence outside Gill Park on the southwest corner of the intersection remained off kilter Monday evening because the suspect’s car crashed into it. 

That in turn happened after police said he ran down three people. Two were badly hurt, but all three survived – unlike the woman police said the same driver hit in 2018.

Among other things Allen is charged with driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident. A Cook County judge sentenced Allen to thirty months probation for the death of the 93-year-old.

One of the injured is a cyclist who appears to have come to the aid of the first two victims. 

Joe Biden’s ‘latest disastrous lie’ has been exposed

Despite his promise, assuming he remembers it, "Walkaway Joe" Biden left Americans behind in what Sky News' Australia's Rita Panahi calls the "hellhole" in Afghanistan.

Biden leaves Americans behind as troops leave Afghanistan

9/11 memorial,
Des Plaines, Illinois

Today is another dark day for America. This evening--shortly after midnight, August 31--in Afganistan, our troops left that nation.

From the Daily Mail:

And some 100 to 200 Americans and thousands of Afghan allies left behind must fend for themselves now that the airport no longer offers an escape route.

The end of the mission was announced by General Frank McKenzie, head of U.S. Central Command, who said the chief U.S. diplomat in Afghanistan, Ross Wilson, was on the last C-17 flight out.

'There's a lot of heartbreak associated with this departure,' he said.

'We did not get everybody out that we wanted to get out.

You see that? "Fend for themselves!"  And "we did not get everybody out that we wanted to get out."

And I suspect that "100-200" number will go up.

Sad. 

Not just sad. 

Tragic. 

Joe Biden needs to go.
