The Morning Report 2/5/20

Good morning, kids. Thursday and I’m not even into the first sentence and my blood is already boiling over from the outright threats hurled at the Supreme Court by one of the most loathsome louts ever to hold elective office. And that’s saying something given the nature of DC. Cuck Schemer plainly threatened Justices Kavanaugh and Gorsuch with the phrases “you will pay the price” and you “won’t know what hit you.” Given that both are lifetime appointees and part of an independent, coequal branch of our government, “pay the price”, exactly how? And “won’t know what hit you” is straight out of Virgil Solozzo’s Book of Handy Phrases a few pages after “if I wanted to kill you, you’d be dead already.”

What’s equally sickening is the moral equivalency in claiming Schemer was merely responding to Trump’s “attacks” on the Wide-Load Wiseass Latina and Ruth Bader Meinhoff. Ridiculous on the face of it since Trump was responding to attacks on him and his response was both non-threatening as well as appropriate, given both of their open animosity and vitriol of the President and his administration. The blowing way past the red line of Schemer’s statement, at least from my recollection and knowledge of historical criticism of SCOTUS, is unprecedented but it’s not unique. You’ll recall Obama’s thinly veiled threat and rebuke of the court, specifically aimed at the time at Justice Samuel Alito at a State of the Union address and when before the last foul word left his mouth, Schemer leapt to his feet, clapping like a retarded seal. 

So what’s going on here? Is this a deranged reaction to being helpless as one of the Left’s sacraments, baby-killing dressed in drag as women’s health and freedom of choice potentially smashed like the golden calf? Or is it the totality of their complete failure at taking out President Trump hitting them square in the face? Whatever is going on, the words coming not from some unhinged troll in his parent’s basement but from political and cultural (allegedly) leaders have chilling and in many cases deadly effects, as we have seen now time and time again. That said, I am no fan of Laurence Tribe but I applaud his unequivocal rebuke of Schemer, who is a longtime friend and fellow traveler, and defense of what is supposed to be an independent court that is due the deference and respect of the other branches. But it’s the same old story. The Left observes the laws, traditions and customs of America as founded only when it advances their cause, and that’s virtually never. Other times it uses the Constitution as both a shield and cudgel to defend and attack us. That is, when they’re not wiping their ass with it.

Historically, the Dems have great difficulty in advancing their goals legislatively and electorally, which is why the rely on packing the courts with leftist hacks so when the inevitable lawsuits fly against any bureaucratic or Democrat president’s overreach, they are there to kill the challenge and forever etch in stone that which is antithetical to what the framers had in mind. Yes, I realize the New Deal, Great Society and Obama, but it was really the courts that cemented much of their destruction. With that in mind, it’s not hard to see beyond the hatred of Trump the man representing we the people and We the People. Trump has proven himself now to be a mortal enemy of the bureaucracy. They know full well that four more years mean one or perhaps two more justices who can effectively reverse perhaps decades of socialist/globalist policy while wresting control over their most powerful political tool, the courts. Hell, he’s already put well over a hundred judges on the courts and has perhaps flipped the perpetually risible and dangerous Ninth Circuit. That’s why this election is for all the marbles, at least for the foreseeable future. In that light, Schemer’s threats come from a place of desperation and impotent rage, yet makes them no less dangerous, both to the individuals they were hurled at and our society as a whole.

So, Chief Justice Roberts condemned them, and as Ace pointed out last night, it should have been a unanimous 9-justice communique. It wasn’t, which is rather an alarming tell.
That leaves the Senate and majority leader Mitch McConnell. So far I have not seen anything coming from the Turtle. Considering his position on the Judiciary Committee, in light of this blatant threat, Schemer should be kicked off that committee effective immediately. Is the good old boys club more powerful than doing what’s right? At least Senator Josh Hawley is set to introduce a resolution to censure Schemer. We shall see what happens, but from the New Testament, Matthew 7:16 “Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.”

CIVIL WAR 2.0

POLITICS, 2020 ELECTION

Moving on to politics, the Dems are very good at wasting billions but at least this time it’s their own money, the Sanders and Biden camps get into it with accusations of cheating, several good links on Biden’s renaissance including a look back on a nearly 50-year career of being wrong on everything as well as all kinds of goniffing galore, Sanders as the Left’s Frankenstein monster, Fauxca-Has-Been PAC pulls money and ads as her campaign sinks, now that Tulsi Coffeecake has met all the requirements to be on the next debate stage, the DNC tells her “LOLGF!”, some excellent news for both Trump and Texas, Donkey Chompers’ candidates had a lousy showing and her own top aide sez “adios,” Nazi collaborator Soros DA candidate loses, Steve Bullock lied, Spike Lee is a racist against his own kind, and two good essays warning Jews about their blindness. 

CORONAVIRUS, FICTIONS AND FACTS

Wait, why is extra money needed at all when we have the CDC, HHS and Lord knows what other permanent bureaucracies in DC funded in the billions year after year? Meh, what do I know, right? In any case two GOP Reps thinking the same thing I guess, looks like a vaccine could be ready very soon, Trump killing an Obama regulation might have helped it along, this could be a make or break issue for Trump but so far he’s pitch perfect and the Dems’ attempt to blame him backfires, Iran opens its prisons to release infected people, WHO blames dirty money and what we can learn from China about this mess.

JOE BRIBEM, HUNTER BRIBEM UKRAINE, CHI-COM, OTHER SCANDALS

The Dems better look again at their savior. And that headline about Hunter Biden is hilarious.

DEMOCRAT-LEFTIST SCANDALS, CRIMES, CHUTZ-POCRISY, MESHUGAS

Bernie visits American held prisoner by Castro and tells him think of it as a Caribbean vacation, Daniel Greenfield with a Gomer Pyle “surprise, surprise!” Lastly, Katie Hill attempts to airbrush her galloping gonads back to respectability.

AMNESTY, IMMIGRATION, BORDER CRISIS, BORDER SECURITY

He may be brain dead but he knows how to rustle up future Democrats, Cook County needs to be federalized, and a warning about the next amnesty attempt, and really all of them.

FIRST AMENDMENT, CENSORSHIP, FAKE NEWS, MEDIA, BIG BROTHER BIG TECH 

I’m no fan of Tingles and he is/was a lout but the way he was taken out will be the pattern for anyone not down for the struggle, and a Koch outfit teams with Lefties and Chi-Coms to smear a decent man.

ABORTION

Court set to hear major abortion case, Roberts could be problematic, Rancida Taliban is rancid, and this Emmett Till anti-lynching law ignores the true danger to future generations of blacks.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS, INTERNATIONAL

Iran caught nuking up, the American Left helped Bibi win big, and finally, in Uganda, it’s Idi, not Edie.

DEFENSE, MILITARY, SECURITY AFFAIRS

Pentagon nabs one of their own as Hezbollah agent, US strikes Taliban on heels of peace deal, and Chi-Com agents plead guilty to spying on US Navy base.

WE-ALL-SLAM-FOR-I-SLAM

Terrorist’s mother admits destroying evidence in San Berdoo terror attack, and I never heard of this one. Until now.

THE ECONOMY, STUPID

Bernie is the plague, people have a fever for Costco and reaping the outsourcing to China all to get cheap goods.

CRIME & PUNISHMENT, NON-DOSTOYEVSKY

Here’s the solution: stop voting for Democrats.

EDUCATION, INDOCTRINATION

Yup.

RED-GREENS, CLIMATE CHANGE HOAX, LYSENKOISM

Trump’s EPA lets the sun shine in and the Obamaites shriek, Vatican is a joke and Grating Greta demands gold on a sliver platter.

ACTUAL SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY

Our intrepid science reporter with more cool Martian pix, mostly from the Curiosity Rover about to crest a plateau.

FEMINAZISM, TRANSGENDER PSYCHOSIS, HOMOSEXUALIZATION, WAR ON MASCULINITY/NORMALCY

And no one saw this coming, right? Also, Arizona does the right thing.

CULTURE WARS, HITHER & YON

Christian Toto on Hollywood shunning Antonio Sabato for the crime against humanity of openly supporting Trump, Whoopi Rape-Rape about as intelligent as you imagine, who the hell is Billy Porter, and another good essay on the reaction to Trump’s orders for more classical architecture in DC to replace the ugly, soul-crushing brutalism of our federal office buildings.
