Ohio Democrat State Rep Endorses Trump For Reelection

“…Today, following in the bold first step of Georgia State Representative Vernon Jones, I am both honored and humbled to be the second Democrat State Representative to publicly announce my endorsement of President Donald J. Trump.”

“From my perspective as a lawmaker who was elected for the first time in 2016, following a lifetime as an educator and child advocate, I have admired President Trump’s dedication to law and order and his respect for our Constitution,” Kent continued. “His strong leadership and willingness to fight for educational and economic empowerment for minorities has brought unprecedented hope to the American people.”

“President Trump has provided a record number of Black Americans with a real shot at the American dream,” Kent wrote. “Under President Trump’s leadership, Black Americans have experienced record-low unemployment and the poverty rate among the black community has fallen to its lowest level in U.S. history. A large part of this success is due to President Trump’s willingness to listen to the ideas of Senator Tim Scott and the concerns of invested citizens from diverse communities in economic distress. This effort produced a groundbreaking solution called ‘Opportunity Zones,’ a way to create jobs and spur investment in disadvantaged communities. We all recognize that gainful employment and economic development is the best deterrent against violence and social unrest, so I want to thank President Trump for his commitment to ensuring the success of the Black community in every way.”

Kent noted, “I am beyond thankful for President Trump’s willingness to prioritize the success of my own alma mater, as well as other Historically Black Colleges and Universities. President Trump has appropriated more money to HBCUs in one year than any other president. In addition, the Trump Administration continues to work with HBCUs to expand apprenticeship opportunities, career choices, and ensure they are receiving adequate support. HBCUs are said to have trained roughly 50 percent of black teachers and doctors in the United States today. Most students at these historically black colleges are low-income, first-generation students. President Trump’s historic action, permanently providing HBCUs with more than $250 million a year has ensured the legacy of these colleges and universities that are near and dear to my heart, as well as the futures of their graduates for generations to come…”

U.S. media is corrupt. Trump is running against the media. Biden is a figurehead.

Foreign policy expert Walid Phares says ‘militant’ U.S. media have become ‘opposition’

“…Foreign policy expert Walid Phares says American media have abandoned their neutrality and now act like some outlets in the Middle East or former Soviet Union.

“It’s a militant media. It’s the opposition media. Mainstream media is gone, it’s dead,” Phares said Wednesday on the John Solomon Reports podcast.

Phares, the author of the book “The Choice: Trump vs. Obama-Biden in U.S. Foreign Policy,” said that those working in the media industry emerge from institutions of higher education that have been infected by leftist ideology and foreign funding that has perverted the academic field of international relations.

Phares said that the college classroom “has been corrupted for decades now either because of the far-left, I call them the neo-Bolsheviks, who wants to repeat the experience of the early 20th century which has failed and that is militant Communism, or, since the at least late 70’s, early 80’s a huge influx of petrodollars coming from the Middle East and other spots in the world … that corrupted the study of international relations.”…”

On the Emmet Sullivan fiasco regarding the Flynn dismissal

Jonathan Turley:

“…Judge Emmet Sullivan fulfilled the expectations of the D.C. Circuit panel that ordered him to dismiss the charge without further delay. That decision was reversed en banc but only because the court decided (as many of us argued) that Sullivan should be allowed to issue a final decision before an appellant review of his handling of the case. The en banc court did not rule in favor of his controversial comments or orders. Yet, in the hearing, Sullivan declared “Suffice it to say, the case was remanded to me by the en banc court.” As argued below, the law is clear and, suffice it to say, Sullivan will be reversed if he follows the advice of John Gleeson. Instead, Sullivan announced that he still “has questions” and indicated that he is not prepared to issue a final decision after two years. Instead, he repeated the words of Gleeson as virtual fact like an alter ego. This is moving from the cathartic to the tragic. The Court is not just prolonging the inevitable for the ruling but the trauma for the defendant. Flynn should have been sentenced years ago and the charges dismissed months ago. A defendant should not be a vehicle of the court to express displeasure or satisfy its curiosity on public controversies. The court knows that it would be almost certainly reversed if it follows the advice of its self-appointed quasi-prosecutor Gleeson. Instead, it is continuing to refuse to rule while using the case to ask more questions about the internal decision-making at the Justice Department…”

Democrats then and now

J. Robert Smith:

“…Democrats love to claim that their party underwent a metamorphosis in the 1960s, when they finally washed away the taint of slavery past. The Rebellion, in which Democrats played principal roles in causing, was a century in the rearview mirror. Goes the spin: Democrats vanquished their post-Civil War record of virulent racism, which expressed itself in Jim Crow (Southern apartheid) and the atrocities of the nightriding Ku Klux Klan — the party’s white-garbed brownshirts — who ranged beyond the South, terrorizing blacks in states where Democrats concentrated.

As we view the Democratic Party from the vantage point of October, 2020, we see that the party’s character is unchanged. The party of slavery, rebellion, and Jim Crow has found new expressions for its darker inclinations.

Antifa and BLM are knockoffs of the KKK. Riots and mob violence in blue cities are very much the provocations of the party’s new strongarms. Trashing and terrorizing cities aren’t an end, but a beginning. They’re demonstration projects of sorts. Roadshows are to follow if the rest of us don’t knuckle under.

Democrats have never lost their appetite for oppression. Underclass blacks are as exploited and kept down today as blacks were in the Jim Crow South. Now, though, they’re given welfare checks, public housing, and handhelds in exchange for votes. Democrats’ “Great Society” schemes empowered white and black overseers and lined their pockets, but decades ago failed to lift poor blacks out of their circumstances. Black generational poverty is bondage.

Racism remains the Democratic Party’s franchise. Blaming nonblack Americans for racism and underclass black failure is audacity borne of desperation…”

Democrat governance – Virginia style. You will be made to comply.

Virginia Forces Christian Ministries to Adopt ‘Government Ideology’ or Pay $100K

“…The so-called Virginia Values Act (S.B. 868), which Gov. Ralph Northam (D-Va.) signed on Holy Saturday (the day before Easter Sunday) in the middle of a pandemic, compels churches, religious schools, and Christian ministries to hire employees who do not share their stated beliefs on marriage, sexuality, and gender identity. A companion law (H.B. 1429) requires ministries and others like them to pay for transgender surgery in employee health care plans, a procedure that violates these ministries’ convictions…”

Democrat.
