Burgess Owens Torches Democrats: Party Of ‘Slavery, KKK, Jim Crow, Killed Over 40% of Black Babies’
"I used to be a Democrat until I did my history and found out the misery that that party brought to my race," Owens said. "I do believe in restitution. Let’s point to the party that was part of slavery, KKK, Jim Crow, that has killed over 40 percent of our black babies, 20 million of them."

"State of California, 75 percent of our black boys cannot pass standard reading and writing tests: a Democratic state," Owens continued. "So yes, let’s pay restitution. How about a Democratic Party pay for all the misery brought to my race and those — after we learn our history — who decide to stay there, they should pay also. They are complicit. And every white American, Republican or Democrat, that feels guilty because of your white skin, you should need to pony up also. That way we can get past this reparation and recognize that this country has given us greatness."

Amen , brother! I'll simply add this quote from George Orwell: "In times of universal deceit, to tell the truth is a revolutionary act."

Man nabbed for Bronx rape allegedly said she ‘deserved it’ for ‘slavery’
“She was a white girl. She deserved it because us minorities have been through slavery,” Temar Bishop, 23, allegedly said to someone who witnessed the bloodied 20-year-old woman after the assaults, according to a criminal complaint.

“This is what they used to do to us. This is what they did to us during slavery. They used to beat us and whip us.”

Temar Bishop, 23, was arrested by authorities on Friday in Virginia on a slew of charges connected to the early morning June 1 assault, which officials have deemed a hate crime, according to authorities."

Horrid. That poor girl. "Police sources previously told The Post a Special Victims Division investigator described the attack as “one of the worst he’s ever seen." I blame the Democrats and their willing accomplices in Media for super-heating the political atmosphere with their irresponsible demands for reparations.

Judges Rule to Let Trump Defund Abortion Clinics; Planned Parenthood Hardest Hit
"The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued a rule on Feb. 22 that “prohibits the use of Title X funds to perform, promote, refer for, or support abortion as a method of family planning.” More than 20 states and nongovernmental organizations challenged the rule in cases filed in Oregon, Washington, and California. Judges in Oregon and Washington blocked the rules from taking effect nationwide. The judge in California issued a statewide injunction.

But a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco called the rules a “reasonable” interpretation of a federal law that prohibits taxpayer-funded health clinics from advocating, encouraging, or promoting abortion.

The panel overturned all three injunctions while the separate cases proceed. According to Politico, all three judges were appointed by Republican presidents."

Planned Parenthood annual report for 2017-18 confessed it performed 332,757 abortions during those years, the most the abortion giant has reported since 2011-2012.

Leftists vociferously demand all tax payers subsidize abortion on demand because Leftists require it, while at the same time, Leftists vociferously demand all taxpayers remove religion from the public square because Leftists require it. Screw you. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals finally issued a correct ruling about these Title X funds.

7-2 SCOTUS: 1925 Bladensburg ‘Peace Cross’ can stay on public land

Alito Majority Opinon: “The Religion Clauses of the Constitution aim to foster a society in which people of all beliefs can live together harmoniously, and the presence of the Bladensburg Cross on the land where it has stood for so many years is fully consistent with that aim.”

The 2 dissenting opinions are from the usual first rate, 2nd rate judges.

However, this wasn't a full-throated defense of religious liberty, much like the Masterpiece Cakeshop ruling from last year wasn't, either. Both are very narrowly defined opinions specific to their 'just-so' particulars - which leaves the window open for more and more assaults against religious liberty in the public square. Just ask Jack Phillips of Masterpiece Cakeshop who is being sued a third time because Jack refused to bake a 'transgendered birthday cake' (not a joke).

Aren't delirious Democrats now accusing Team Obama of treason?
"In July 2016, the Obama administration accepted unsolicited information from Alexander Downer, an Australian diplomat who just happened to have helped arrange a $25 million government donation to the Clinton Foundation years before. Downer said that he had witnessed a Trump campaign aide, George Papadopoulos, bragging about some dirt that the Russians supposedly had on Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton."

My time at the Kansas City Star taught me that when a headline starts with a question, the answer is almost always 'No.' Yet a larger principle rules: "Those in the stratosphere of political power almost never face any consequences for their malfeasance or dereliction."

Democrat Staffer Who Doxxed GOP Senators During Kavanaugh Fight Is Going To Prison
Like the Professor says, "Punch back twice as hard."

"A former aide to Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) was sentenced to four years in prison Wednesday for hacking Senate computers and releasing personal information online about five Republican senators out of anger spurred by their roles in the confirmation hearings for Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

In April, Cosko pleaded guilty to five felonies, admitting that after being fired last year from his work as a systems administrator on Hassan’s staff, he repeatedly used a colleague’s key to enter the office, install keylogging equipment that stole work and personal email passwords, and downloaded a massive trove of data from Senate systems."

Doxxing is the Internet-based practice of researching and broadcasting private or identifying information (especially personally identifying information) about an individual or organization. The malicious purpose is for personal assaults to be retributed against a doxxed individual. Unexpectedly, of course.

Second congressional Democrat staffer charged in scheme to 'dox' Republicans amid Kavanaugh confirmation fight
"Court documents accuse Davis of aiding 27-year-old Jackson A. Cosko, a former Hassan aide who has pleaded guilty to five federal offenses, including two counts of making public restricted personal information, and one count each of computer fraud, witness tampering and obstruction of justice.

Prosecutors alleged Wednesday that Davis was persuaded by Cosko to "wipe down" Senate computers he had hacked. Davis now faces two misdemeanor charges: one federal count of aiding and abetting computer fraud and a District count of attempted evidence tampering, the Washington Post reported."

Twice as hard.
