WASHINGTON. Rudy Giuliani is in the sights of the Biden crime family. They need to be careful. In 1996, then-federal prosecutor Rudolph Giuliani was in a Manhattan elevator when he was recognized by a giddy female admirer. Giuliani was making a name for himself with high-profile prosecutions of members of New York City’s organized crime.
“Frankly,” Giuliani told the woman, “I’m surprised you’re not worried about riding the elevator with me,” The New York Times reported in its profile of Giuliani.

Five years later, Mayor Giuliani led his city through the bloody tumult that followed the terrorist attacks of 9/11, in which nearly 3,000 Americans died.
When some pampered Saudi Arabian princeling suggested the assault on the US signaled it was time for America to “re-examine its policies in the Middle East and adopt a more balanced stand toward the Palestinian cause,” Giuliani replied:
“There is no moral equivalent for this act. There is no justification for it. And one of the reasons I think this happened is because people were engaged in moral equivalency in not understanding the difference between liberal democracies like the United States, like Israel, and terrorist states and those who condone terrorism. So, I think not only are those statements wrong, they’re part of the problem.”
His years arguing before juries give Giuliani a decided advantage against the machinations of Cretans harboring criminal intent. And no one knows this better than former Vice President Joe Biden.

We now know that as Trump’s personal attorney, Giuliani has been investigating Biden’s successful 2014 campaign to pressure Ukraine’s government to sack its Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin. The prosecutor was investigating Burisma Holdings, an oil and natural gas company on whose board Biden’s son Hunter served. The dealings of the Biden Crime Family

Pelosi – Schiff Democrats operation destroy America Chapter 3: Impeachment

A position that paid the vice president’s son $50,000 a month.
Capitol Hill Democrats and their media propagandists imply that President Trump’s July conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy was intended to strong-arm the leader. That “mafia-style” suggestions were to manufacture dirt on Democratic presidential front-runner Joe Biden.
Democrats cite the interest of the Trump administration and its friends to uncover Obama administration corruption as an offense worthy of an impeachment inquiry.
The president must rely on Giuliani to serve as his private investigator. A corrupt FBI is far too busy helping the CIA run one failed coup attempt after another. And even if they did investigate, the FBI would more than likely exonerate Joe and Hunter Biden. Much in the same manner, they did Hillary Clinton of her many violations of the Espionage Act of 1917.
Another benefit of using personal lawyers is that any conversations, emails, work products, memo – any communication electronic or otherwise – are lawyer-client communications and therefore have privilege.  That sneaky Trump. Smarter than the average politician.

But the Biden presidential campaign worries Giuliani is getting too much air time. They have written a letter demanding television news outlets ban him from the airwaves:
“We are writing today with grave concern that you continue to book Rudy Giuliani on your air to spread false, debunked conspiracy theories on behalf of Donald Trump. While you often fact check his statements in real-time during your discussions, that is no longer enough. By giving him your air time, you are allowing him to introduce increasingly unhinged, unfounded and desperate lies into the national conversation.”
Then, mafia-like, the Biden campaign says – in bold type no less:
“We write to demand that in service to the facts, you no longer book Rudy Giuliani, a surrogate of Donald Trump who has demonstrated that he will knowingly and willingly lie in order to advance his own narrative.”
It’s almost sweet that old Joe, who recently told parents to gather with their kids around the old Victrola to marvel at the magical sounds emanating from its horn, still believes legacy media is the gatekeeper of information in today’s America.
Our toothless media mob
Legacy media thought manufactured polls and biased reporting were enough to secure Hillary Clinton the presidency.
That failed.
Legacy media joined with Democrats and Deep State actors to forward the lie that President Trump was a traitor to his country by working for Russia’s Vladimir Putin.

Impeaching Trump: This endless quest is redundant, repetitive and insane

That failed too.
No matter how loud Biden howls to his friends in the media, the fearless Giuliani won’t be disappearing anytime soon. Even for the Biden Crime Family, the former mayor is a hard man to kill.

Back in the 1990s, Salvatore Riina of Sicily’s Corleonesi crime family took out an $800,000 contract on Giuliani’s life. But Riina’s American counterparts informed the hotheaded Italian mobster, who was personally responsible for committing at least 40 murders, if the American prosecutor is killed, the US government will “annihilate the mafia.”
Giuliani, you see, is a hard man to disappear. And the perfumed dandies of our legacy media aren’t anywhere near as threatening as the mooks with the crooked noses and cauliflower ears.
Nor, for that matter, is the gaffable dunce, Joe Biden.

Why the BREXIT form the European Union SHOULD MATTER to Americans (as well as all other European and English Speaking Nations)=> Pat Condell

It should come as no surprise that the world is trying to go to a New World Order, where we end up with a singular government.  Besides being predicted in the Bible, anyone that's been paying attention has seen the Open Borders Foundation, funded by George Soros, flex its muscles to accomplish what used to be called Illegal Immigration.  Unfortunately Germany and it's soon to be deposed Prime Minister, Frau Angela Merkel and the current President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker are still pushing for a "United States of Europe," where they hope to run things without the interference of those pesky member nations governments or the interests of their citizens.

So what's the big deal about the EU?  Well, the "overarching government" that's unelected and therefore unaccountable to citizens of any country, basically controls what citizens of the member nations can actually do with their own resources and how they they can live in their individual countries.  As Germany and France are the leading members, most of the policies tend to favor their nations.  Ask yourself this simple question:  Where are the headquarters of the European Automobile Comnpanies?  Answer:  Germany, Italy and France.  Well what about the United Kingdom, Spain and Sweden?  Answer:  For the most part, gone.  Jaguar is owned by a company in India.  Bentley is owned by Volkswagen.  Rolls Royce is owned by BMW.  Volvo is now owned by the Chinese.  Seat is now owned by Volkswagen.  Only a very few almost hand built sports cars are now built in Great Britain.

So now with no more introduction, here's Pat Condell presenting the case for Freedom:  https://youtu.be/isfr1pn9iXY

Guest Post: Andrew Codevilla=> American Greatness=> Igniting Civil War

Well, as confirmed by columnist Andrew Codevilla, The Democrat Party in the US has crossed the Rubicon.  Sooner or later, someone is going to defend themselves with deadly force and the War over which way our country goes will turn "hot," with lead flying and will be on...  Witness the attacks on Representative Steve Scalise and Senator Rand Paul, as well as the Police in Portland just standing around letting the Antifa Thugs run wild in the streets.  All it will take to turn this nation into the Wild West, with the best shot having the best chance at survival, is for someone to defend themselves to the point where a life is extinguished.

GOD help us all!

*********************************************************************************


Igniting Civil War


Angelo Codevilla August 6th, 2019


Government sponsorship of violence against opponents or complacency in the face of incitement to violence is a powerful tool of political repression. Regimes such as Cuba, Venezuela, Iran, Nicaragua, China, and other tyrannies have used such tactics to great effect. When mobs attack anti-government demonstrators, for example, the police either disappear or stand by watching. In American cities run by Democrats and on the U.S. college and university campuses, the authorities increasingly have been standing by as radicals do the dirty work of beating up or silencing conservatives.

In societies riven by mutual hate, the people who control the police and public communications make all the difference. When they maintain impartiality, as did Germany’s Weimar government while the Nazis and Communists struggled for primacy, partisan warfare tends to be resolved politically—though the results are harsh. When societal hatred or the partiality of authorities results in deaths, long-smoldering cold civil war can blaze into holocaust.

We Americans are now facing the danger of a civil war thus ignited. We do not think of civil war this way because our Civil War from 1861 to 1865 was less a conflict within society than it was a highly organized war between states. That war notwithstanding, personal friendships and mutual esteem persisted on both sides, such as that between Ulysses S. Grant and prominent Confederate General James Longstreet.

What we face now is worse.

What’s Typical in Civil Wars?




Classic civil wars, from Thucydides’ account of the Corcyrean revolution of 431 B.C. to the Spanish Civil War of 1936-1939, tend to be far more bitterly murderous than anything that has yet happened in America. These wars ignite when public power abets—or is perceived as having abetted—violence in longstanding social struggles, when authorities treat opponents as outside the protection of the laws, or when they criminalize political differences outright.

The authorities also bear most of the responsibility for piling up and drying the partisan fuel that they then ignite. Thucydides tells us that the Corcyrean parties’ adherence to the Peloponnesian War’s opposing sides simply sharpened their long simmering conflict. It mattered little which of the two first refused to accept losing a vote in the city assembly and accused the winners of improprieties. Reciprocally, they heated their cold civil war until one side shed blood. The spiral of violence then accelerated, and the city essentially depopulated itself.

In 1920s Spain, the newly formed Communist Party, the socialists, anarchists, and various regional separatists spurred each other’s hostility toward the country’s Catholic, royalist population. Where the Left won local elections in May 1931, mobs of its supporters ravaged churches, raped nuns, and beat conservatives with impunity. As leftist violence spread to the rest of the country after the June national elections, conservative localities retaliated, and the army began to plot against the republic.

The Spanish government turned conservative in 1934. That led to the “popular front” alliance, consisting primarily of radicals, which narrowly won the 1936 elections. In the aftermath, a militant leftist squad leader was killed. As the police searched for the killer, one of their entourage murdered the country’s leading conservative politician, Jose Calvo Sotelo. The army struck back. The atrocities committed by ordinary people on ordinary people dwarfed the armies’ horrors. “Viva la muerte,” long live death, is the ensuing war’s most memorable saying.

Suborning Violence




It all starts with getting people accustomed to hating each other. And that starts at the top.

Saying hateful things about one’s opponents is a time-tested way of stoking supporters’ enthusiasm, of building support for one’s own side. But when blood is spilled, someone, then everyone else, tends to use it as a pretext for inciting more violence. That’s the meaning of blood-feud.

The story of the contemporary American Left’s sponsorship of hate and violence begins around 1964, when the Democratic Party chose to abandon the Southern constituencies that had been its mainstay since the time of Jefferson and Jackson. In less than a decade, the party found itself increasingly dependent on gaining super-majorities among blacks, upscale liberals, and constituencies of resentment in general—and hence on stoking their hate.

For the past half century, America’s political history has been driven by the Democratic Party’s effort to fire up these constituencies by denigrating the rest of America. As elements of cynical calculation melded into self-images of righteous entitlement to rule inferiors, the boundaries between the party and the constituencies’ most radical parts have eroded.

In the 21st century’s second decade, explicit statements by the party’s principal figures—President Obama, Hillary Clinton, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, to name only a few—have led their epigones in power as well as millions of followers to think and act as if conservatives were simply on a lower level of humanity, and should have their faces rubbed in their own inferiority. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo simply declared that pro-lifers and other conservatives have no place in his state.

As the media amplified and cheered such guidance from on high, it would be surprising if many ordinary followers have not concluded that harassing if not harming conservatives in restaurants, airports, as well as in their public functions is not just permissible but praiseworthy, and if thousands of persons who exercise power over cities, towns and schools have not concluded that facilitating such harassment and harm is their duty.

Police in leftist jurisdictions have stood aside as violent groups disrupted the 2016 Republican presidential campaign and the 2017 presidential inauguration in Washington, D.C., as racial mobs have ravaged malls and shut down major roads, as conservatives have been attacked physically as they tried to speak or merely observed. The media have basically justified the violence. The other side has done nothing comparable—yet.
But since the ruling class’s condemnations of conservatives as racists, environmental criminals, and would-be terrorists are becoming well-nigh universal, the probability of deadly attacks on conservatives, of intolerable convictions or absolutions, and assassinations, rises to certainty. So does corresponding demand for protection and revenge.

It would be surprising were political words from on high not to be among the factors that trigger mentally ill persons to act out their fantasies. Although the number of mass shootings in America has declined in recent decades, the role of politics in the killers’ derangement seems to have increased. In the closest call yet, a few months after the 2017 inaugural, a Democratic Party activist who had supported Bernie Sanders and regularly posted violent rants against President Trump on social media opened fire on Republican congressmen practicing for a baseball game, nearly killing Representative Steve Scalise (R-La.). The ruling class rushed to exonerate itself.

The ruling class’s provocative bias has been on display subsequent to the most recent outrages by mental cases—22 killed in El Paso, Texas, and nine in Dayton, Ohio—the first by someone who mixed anti-immigration rantings with radical environmentalism, the second by a purebred leftist. The bodies were still warm as Democratic presidential candidates vied to indict President Trump, his supporters and, yes, white men in general, for membership in (nonexistent) murderous white supremacist organizations. The fact that many of the denouncers are white men only underlined their short-term political calculations. The congressman representing El Paso and its sheriff told President Trump to stay out of their city. Dayton’s mayor said the same thing. Who can enforce dicta of that sort?

What should happen, what can happen, when the real, existing violent organizations of the Left—Antifa and the several radical black organizations—try to exclude or to punish? Several cities—Portland, Oregon and Charlottesville, Virginia among them—have had their streets taken over. What happens when these organizations organize mobs to harass their least favorite people? What happens when some of them wind up dead?

At a certain point, the other side shoots back. Here as elsewhere, the several police forces may be expected to split and take opposite sides. Then the army’s special forces become the arbiters, and the war rages.





We know that our ruling class having largely made government into a partisan thing, America has crossed the threshold of revolution. While we have no way of knowing what lies ahead, we know that the spiral of political violence has already taken its first fateful turns, and that the logic of our partisan ruling class is pushing for more.

Guest Post=> Vijay Jayaraj=> The Foundation for Economic Education=> 5 Surprising Facts About Earth's Climate - There are many environmental facts that run contrary to popular belief. Here are five of them

Good news!  Today's commentary comes from the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE.org).  We should really consider what is presented in this article to be common sense!

https://fee.org/articles/5-surprising-scientific-facts-about-earth-s-climate/

Now that we can dismiss all of the fear mongering and assigned guilt, as having been used by our betters for other ulterior (socio-political economic) motives.  And as they've incorrectly predicted the doom and gloom, scarcity and destruction of our society, due to having used up all of the earth's resources, maybe we can get on with our lives, using the principles of stewardship in our daily decision making.

When we make decisions about our personal lives and others butt in to tell us how we’re using too many of the earth’s natural resources, maybe we should tell our want-to-be-betters to “sod-off” and “mind their own damn business.”

The irony here is that what our leftist betters are attempting to use emotion, guilt and hypocrisy to manipulate us into doing their will, are covered in the Teachings of Jesus, in the Bible.  

The first principle is “Fear not,” which might be better translated as Don't Worry." a teaching Jesus often used and told frequently to those who followed him.  Jesus, emphasizing his teaching, added "who among you can add an inch During the depths of the Depression, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt told our ancestors in a “Fireside Address,” broadcast on the radio, that “The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself.”  Jesus told his followers this, because fear is a universal part of the human condition.  It’s probably just as old as mankind itself.  We worry about things, over which we have no control.

The second principle he taught that is applicable is not to be a hypocrite:  Jesus' example was “How can you see to remove a speck (of dirt or wood) from someone else’s eye, when you have a log in your own eye?”  That is really a hilarious comparison as the larger the obstruction that would block our vision in our eye, should be noticeable to us because it would block our vision and it would cause us pain.  Yet, how many of out leftist betters lecture us about our energy choices through the vehicles we drive or the houses in which we live.   They have huge mansions which require many resources to to build, maintain, repair, and operate and take private jet air planes as transport to a conference they label as work, with both having extraordinarily large "carbon foot prints.   

The biggest Hypocrite of which I can think is former Senator Albert Gore, Jr., of Tennessee, who always lectured everyone else about our energy usage and carbon footprint, while living in a mansion reputed to be in excess of 10,000 sq. ft., that used a lot of energy to heat, cool, light and operate.  Yet, he would fly around the globe, telling us “the inconvenient truth” that the world was running out of fuel.   Former President Barack Obama comes in a close second place, having lectured us about how much money do we need to make and how many houses do we need to buy.  This is especially “rich” In hypocrisy, as He and Michelle now own 3 mansions (Hyde Park in Chicago, Washington, D.C. and now on Martha’s Vineyard) and came out of the White House as millionaires after probably being the single worst Presidential Administration in the history of America.

I’ll conclude my rant if the day with these last points:
  • Ancient wisdom, to include that if the Bible, has surpassed the test of time and proven itself to be wise.  Don’t ignore it, just because those you know, who claim to be followers of Christ, seem to be the very hypocrites of which he spoke.
  • Old philosophies, such as Stewardship, are often rooted in these ancient wisdoms.  They worked for our Parents and Grandparents.  And if we give them a chance, they can work for us.

I'm one of the last of the Baby Boomers, married to another one of them. We live in middle class suburbia, in what used to be a small town, but is now a bedroom community of a City large enough to have a couple of professional sports teams. We've raised 2 kids the old fashioned way, with my wife, homeschooling both of them thanks to great home school laws while staying at home on a lower middle class income, and eventually paying off ALL of our debt. We're Culturally Conservative, Reformed Church Adherents, Followers and Disciples of Christ, who are trying to live our lives with purpose. I'm a Southern Partisan, in the sense that I believe the South is the greatest place on earth to live, because of the way Southerners interact with each other. Our mannerisms tend to be polite, we are fiercely independent and we are friendly with everyone - UNLESS YOU GIVE US A REASON NOT TO BE. We are reverent before GOD and help those around us. We suffer no fools and believe that everyone should have the humility to learn from and respect our elders.. I'm just trying to not bother anyone, and be available when someone needs me.
