New Mind-Blowing Talking Points Go Out on Pro-Hamas Protests As Libs Scramble for Cover Amid a rash of violent pro-Hamas protests, both in word and deed, liberals are scrambling for political cover, and the talking points have gone out. The videos of large crowds chanting "Death to America" while assaulting Jewish students have become too visible, and that means a new framing is needed. Are you ready to have your mind blown? You see, those pointing signs at Jews that say "Al Qassam's next target" while calling for Tel Aviv to be "burned to the ground" are just "anti-war." Nothing says "anti-war" like demanding to "globalize the intifada," am I right? Sometimes I wonder what being a Democrat must be like. I mean, sure you'd be morally bankrupt and economically illiterate, but on the other hand, you could literally get away with anything. Are you calling for genocide in the name of a terrorist group? Well, you're just a harmless "anti-war" protester. {snip} Ultimately, the press outlets making excuses for such behavior support those calls. They can't admit that, though, so you get these ridiculous reframings of what's obviously happening. I don't think too many Americans are going to be fooled. https://redstate.com/bonchie/2024/04/23/the-talking-points-go-out-on-pro-hamas-protests-as-libs-scramble-for-cover-n2173183

Ya Don't Hate 'em Enough: Media Hypes Poll Showing 'High Disapproval' for DeSantis, But There's a Problem Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been running full steam ahead in the aftermath of ending his 2024 presidential campaign, not allowing the disappointment to deter him from getting things done in and for the Sunshine State. He's scored important victories against Disney as well as the plaintiffs in the Florida Parental Rights in Education Act case, has taken action against so-called "squatters' rights" and retail theft, signed five laws cracking down on sexual predators, and recently put his signature on a law that calls for teaching the atrocities of Communism to elementary school students. Throughout it all, DeSantis has (predictably) still been subjected to one failed media hit piece after another, with the Palm Beach Post embarrassingly stealth-editing one anti-DeSantis column in early April and NBC News hearing about it over a "migration" hit piece that fell flat. The mainstream media are, of course, still at it, with the latest example coming from Florida-based news outlets who are hyping a new Morning Consult poll that they say shows Gov. DeSantis with "one of the highest disapproval ratings for governors." It's not until you click the link and read beyond the headline that you find out that the poll was a national poll, not a state poll: And it wasn't until the last line in the piece that they pointed out his approval ratings among Republicans nationally are rock solid: https://redstate.com/sister-toldjah/2024/04/23/ya-dont-hate-em-enough-media-hypes-poll-showing-high-disapproval-for-desantis-but-theres-a-problem-n2173186 .

Did Letitia James Accidentally Reveal the Real Reason for Her Trump Witch Hunt? MATT MARGOLIS FTA: James's legal team argued that the court should nullify Trump's reduced judgment of $175 million in his non-jury civil fraud trial. Her team raised concerns about the ability of Knight Specialty Insurance, the company behind the substantial bond, to actually pay the bond if necessary. That's a rather curious position since she had asked for a much larger $370 million in damages — it's as if the entire point was to achieve a judgment that would be impossible for Donald Trump to pay. It's as if the entire point of her case was to seize his assets under bogus pretenses and be a hero to the radical left. As you know, in February, leftist Judge Arthur Engoron fined Trump $454 million (including interest) for allegedly fraudulently inflating the value of his assets while seeking a loan to build a project. Trump paid the loan back in full, and the bank he supposedly defrauded testified in his defense. Simply put, there was no crime or victim. https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2024/04/22/letitia-james-challenge-to-trumps-175-million-bond-rejected-by-judge-n4928407

Psst…Merrick Garland — I Found Your Domestic Terrorists. “A good rule of thumb in 2024 America is to find out where any leftist protests are happening and steer clear of them, because that’s where the real potential for violence is. I’m not saying that they’re all violent, I’m just saying that large groups of entitled, permanently aggrieved leftists who have grown up in a world without consequences can be a bit powder keg-ish.” The Brownshirt resurrection on American college campuses is a far greater threat than any of the Dems' embellishment of what happened on Jan. 6, 2021. .https://pjmedia.com/stephen-kruiser/2024/04/23/the-morning-briefing-psstmerrick-garland-i-found-your-domestic-terrorists-n4928421 .

Hopelessly Woke NPR Places Trigger Warning on Declaration of Independence The hopeless wokeness of tax-funded National Public Radio has been confirmed by NPR senior business editor Uri Berliner, who started shockwaves with his Free Press essay “I’ve Been at NPR for 25 Years. Here’s How We Lost America’s Trust” providing chapter and verse of how NPR had been take over fully by the left, and as a result blowing several major stories like Russiagate, the Hunter Biden laptop, and dismissing the coronavirus lab leak theory. For his whistleblowing efforts, the veteran journalist Berliner was suspended from NPR for five days before resigning… One example of anti-American wokeness is the “editor’s note” NPR staff felt obliged to place on archived stories about its on-air reading every Independence Day of the Declaration of Independence in full, an honorable tradition apparently now consigned to the ash-heap of history. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/04/more-woke-madness-npr-has-trigger-warning-declaration/ If NPR has a problem with America’s founding documents, they should not be benefiting from American tax dollars. It’s really that simple. .

Judge Smacks Down Letitia James, Rules in Favor of Trump in Fight Over $175 Million Bond A judge on Monday smacked down Marxist tyrant Letitia James and ruled in favor of Trump in a fight over a $175 million bond. On Friday, Letitia James asked a judge to void Trump’s $175 million bond that he posted to appeal the civil fraud case Letitia James argued that California-based Knight Specialty Insurance Company (KSIC) is not approved to do business in New York. James also questioned whether KSIC has the funds to back up the $175 million bond Trump previously posted. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/04/breaking-judge-smacks-down-letitia-james-rules-favor/ ,

Alvin Bragg’s Prosecutors Lie About 2016 Election in Opening Statement to Jurors by Christina Laila Opening statements were underway in President Trump’s ‘hush payment’ trial in New York City on Monday morning. Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s top prosecutor lied during his opening statement and claimed Trump “orchestrated a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election” when he paid porn star Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about their alleged affair. Trump has denied the affair. Bragg’s top prosecutor who gave the opening statement on Monday – Matthew Colangelo – previously worked in the Justice Department (Biden appointee) https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/04/just-alvin-braggs-prosecutors-lie-about-2016-election/ .

Cover-Up Exposed: Judge Cannon Unmasks Redacted Documents Revealing Biden White House Direct Ties to Mar-a-Lago Raid, Jack Smith Investigation by Christina Laila Judge Aileen Cannon on Monday ordered key evidence in Jack Smith’s classified documents case to be unredacted. The newly unredacted documents revealed Biden’s White House had direct ties to the Mar-a-Lago raid. The Biden Regime was also directly tied to Jack Smith’s investigation despite claims to the contrary from US Attorney General Merrick Garland. Before with redactions: Jack Smith wanted to hide the fact that the National Archives had several conversations with the Biden White House. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/04/cover-up-exposed-judge-cannon-unmasks-redacted-documents/ The unredacted documents show the Department of Energy discovered Trump had an active security clearance after he was indicted so they retroactively terminated it. Revoking a security clearance of an ex-president retroactively to criminalize a non-criminal action? That's wrong right there. Should be grounds for dismissal .

For a second, imagine that black students at Columbia were taunted with chants of "Go back to Africa." Or imagine that a gay student at Yale was surrounded by homophobic protesters and hit in the eye with a flagpole. Or imagine if a campus imam told Muslim students that they ought to head home for Ramadan because campus public safety could not guarantee their security. There would be relentless fury from our media and condemnation from our politicians. Just remember the righteous—and rightful—outrage over the white supremacist “Unite the Right” march in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017, where neo-Nazis chanted “The Jews will not replace us.” This weekend at Columbia and Yale, student demonstrators did all of the above —only it was directed at Jews. They told Columbia students to “go back to Poland.” A Jewish woman at Yale was assaulted with a Palestinian flag. And an Orthodox rabbi at Columbia told students to go home for their safety. What will the response be?

IT’S ONLY BEEN OBVIOUS SINCE THE 2016 ELECTION. Two Former High-Profile Trump Critics Now Admit It: His Foes are the Real Threat to Democracy. Yes, you’re right, it’s a republic, not a democracy, but this is no time to quibble. Two high-profile Trump critics, one of whom was even touted as the presidential candidate who could topple Bad Orange in 2020, have just shown that they realize that the real threat to this tottering republic is coming not from the man they once happily joined in on hating, but from his enemies https://pjmedia.com/robert-spencer/2024/04/21/two-former-high-profile-trump-critics-now-admit-it-his-foes-are-the-real-threat-to-democracy-n4928389
