The Democratic Party’s media allies have pulled out all the stops in covering for their lackluster candidate Joe Biden this year. They ignored the gaffes, the racist comments, and the American cities on fire for months, but now the  polls are shifting , and the panic is palpable. The general consensus was Biden is ahead, and any ineptitude from him was irrelevant because simply the promise of “normalcy” was enough to beat Trump handily. The polls said so, of course. But then Democrats failed to condemn, let alone even mention, the ongoing arson, riots, and violent crime at their convention two weeks ago. Only a few days after their convention, and in the middle of the Republican National Convention, Kenosha, Wisconsin broke out in all of the above, placing the GOP in the perfect position to paint Biden as an enabler of the radical left. As the Biden campaign remained silent, The New York Times quickly realized the position Democrats were in, reporting “ How Chaos i...

Democrats and the media have made a sudden turn the last few days. After months of excusing the riots and even actively encouraging them, the new narrative is that it’s all Trump’s fault. They ignore that Trump has offered assistance to Portland, for example, and has been viciously rebuffed even as the city continues to suffer chaos. They also ignore that when Gov. Evers did accept Trump’s help in Kenosha, the violence dwindled almost immediately. No matter, though. The media believe they are the vanguards of information and the Democrats know they have them in their pocket. So you get insanity like this must-see video which succinctly shows just who has really been stoking the flames. The most important video of 2020 pic.twitter.com/3nMNlxl5Q8 — ELIJAH RIOT (@ElijahSchaffer) August 31, 2020   So, who’s really to blame for what we are seeing in Portland, Seattle, Washington D.C., etc.? The obvious answer is that it’s the Democrat Party. In this video, we see Nancy...

New York Times reporter Nicole Hannah-Jones.   By Anne-Christine Hoff Third Reich Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels once said, “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” The 1619 Project tells many doozies, but the biggest lie that the New York Times propagates, in this radical and anti-American document, is that the Revolutionary War was fought because of a desire to maintain slavery, which they thought the British were about to abolish. The lie makes your head explode in its sheer audacity. Thomas Paine’s Common Sense is the pamphlet that circulated for months before the war, generating discussions at taverns and other public venues, and yet there’s nary a word within its pages about slavery. Instead, Paine’s work focused on galvanizing the colonies to break free from England and create an independent republic, a system of self-government, that was not monarchical and that recognized the rights of the individual...

By Daniel Chaitin A conservative watchdog is fed up with the pace of United States Attorney John Durham's inquiry into the Russia investigation with roughly 70 days before Election Day. Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch, shared his grievances Monday with Fox Business host Lou Dobbs, lamenting how he sees no activity to suggest an escalation in a criminal investigation. So far, Durham has secured only one plea deal from a former FBI lawyer who fraudulently altered a CIA email to obtained renewed court permission to wiretap a former Trump campaign aide. He made his point by noting how Durham's team only just interviewed former CIA Director John Brennan on Friday, after which a longtime aide said the Obama administration intelligence chief was told he is not a "subject or target" of a criminal investigation and former FBI Director James Comey insisted that he "can't imagine" being a target of the inquiry. "It...

By Brian C. Joondeph Before President Trump, the Republican Party, and the Democrat Party for that matter, were controlled by the ruling elites of their respective parties. Neither party had any interest in those they claimed to represent, instead bowing to big money donors in exchange for power and position. Once called the military industrial complex, it is now the globalists, wealthy individuals and families happy to hide behind foundations and corporations, ruling America without the consent of the governed, using coercion and force if necessary. This is what candidate Trump railed against. In an important, but largely ignored speech given just weeks before the 2016 presidential election, he made his case in the opening lines. "Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American People. There is nothing the political establishment will not do, and no lie they will not tell, to hold ...

By Bronson Stocking Democrats created a violent mob in Portland and now they're trying to blame it on President Trump. The city has now entered its fourth month of sustained violence. The ink wasn't dry on Mayor Ted Wheeler's letter to the president, rudely denying Trump's offer to end the bloodshed in Portland, when a Trump supporter was murdered in cold blood Saturday night. "On behalf of the City of Portland: No thanks," quipped the senseless mayor in response to another offer by the president to end the violence. "In Portland, we are focused on coming together as a community to solve the serious challenges we face due to systemic racism, a global pandemic and an economic recession," the indignant mayor wrote. Wheeler is tilting at windmills, imagining the police are the ones brutalizing people (it's Antifa), blaming Portland's collapsed economy on a recession (the rioters looted, vandalized, and burnt down all the businesse...

Portland police are investigating a 48-year-old man in the fatal shooting of a Trump supporter on Saturday night, according to  Oregon Live , citing sources familiar with the case but not authorized to discuss it. He was also identified as the man captured in photos and video leaving the scene of the shooting just before 9 p.m. on Saturday. Hours after the murder of Patriot Prayer supporter Aaron Danielson (a.k.a. Jay) was captured on grainy film,  users of the popular image board 4Chan used video footage and social media evidence to correctly identify the suspected shooter as Michael Forest Reinoehl , a former snowboard pro, construction worker and self-admitted member of Antifa, as reported on Sunday by  Summit News  and  The Gateway Pundit . Reinoehl's sister confirmed it was him: Reinoehl’s 36-year-old sister said she was awakened just before 8 a.m. Sunday by a threatening phone call from someone who told her that “our whole family was in danger ...

By Joe Hoft So let’s get this straight – based on the recommendation of doctors Fauci and Birx the US shut down the entire economy based on 9,000 American deaths due entirely to the China coronavirus? We were first to report that the Director General of the WHO on March 3, 2020 a set off the panic with his highly flawed statement: While many people globally have built up immunity to seasonal flu strains, COVID-19 is a new virus to which no one has immunity. That means more people are susceptible to infection, and some will suffer severe disease. Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died. By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected. This statement caused a global panic.  We, however, knew it was wrong and we wrote about it on March 17, 2020. Here is the video of Dr. Ghebreyesus’s remarks. The WHO leader’s coronavirus death rate number of 3.4% was false and we proved this in our post at the time. The Gateway Pundi...

By MATTHEW BOYLE Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) is out with new digital ads that will run in Wisconsin and Minnesota ripping Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden, tying him to the violent anarchist mobs tearing apart American communities with violence. “Over 80 days of riots,” a narrator says as the ad opens with scenes of American communities on fire. “The liberal mob is becoming more violent. Now they’re coming for your homes, they’re coming for your business, your job, and there’s nowhere to hide. The violent mob wants Joe Biden to be president and then no one will stand in their way and no one will be between your family and the mob. Don’t let them win. Vote Republican.” The ad closes with images, first of President Donald Trump, then of Sen. Cotton, implying that Republicans winning—particularly Trump—is the only way to stop the violent mobs. “Joe Biden can’t stand up to the liberal mob because the rioters and left-wing radicals in our cities’ streets are his base,” Cotton s...

By Charles C.W. Cooke Defenders of the right to keep and bear arms might be forgiven for wondering whether the U.S. Supreme Court’s copy of the United States Constitution is missing a few pages. It has been twelve years since the Court affirmed in D.C. v. Heller that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms” actually means “the right of the people to keep and bear arms,” and ten years since the court affirmed in McDonald v. Chicago that the Second Amendment applies to the states as well as to the federal government—and yet, as valuable as those decisions are, the last decade has made it clear that the U.S. Supreme Court is not especially interested in ensuring that they are enforced. In June, the justices continued this unfortunate trend by denying certiorari on no fewer than ten Second Amendment cases. For now, then, the right will remain a mere abstraction to the nation’s network of courts. This matters, as it is difficult to think of another right that has been so wil...
