I awoke uncustomarily early Tuesday. It must have been a result of the dull roar of Democrats, particularly their far-left wing, whining in the wake of Donald Trump becoming president again and Trump acting from Day One to undo four years of carnage visited on this nation by Clueless Joe and Cackling Kamala.
To quote one of the left’s own, Barack Hussein Obama, “Elections have consequences.”
Barry was all full of himself early in 2009, having won the presidency and been inaugurated. He is reported to have lectured Congressional Republicans with this bon mot about elections and their fallout, adding at the time, “I won.”
Nancy Pelosi, not yet the completely amazing stock trader she since has become, doubled down on that as speaker of the House, also in 2009, telling the Republicans in the House minority who had little to no input regarding a stimulus bill, “Yes, we wrote the bill. Yes, we won the election.”
Democrats lost their House majority in 2010 mid-term elections and Pelosi showed typical Democrat hypocrisy by lamenting then that elections “shouldn’t matter as much as they do.”
Now, Democrats have lost the presidency, Senate and allowed Republicans to maintain control of the House. That’s elections have consequences in triplicate!
Here’s a little primer for Democrats and their sycophants in the LameStream media, including leftist house organs CNN and PBS, the better for them to understand that elections do, indeed, have consequences.
Democrats are just fine with Clueless Joe pardoning thousands, including many family members, in his waning days off office. This would include son, Hunter, the man Clueless Joe had denied on numerous occasions that he would pardon.
Yet, as the clock ticked, Daddy Joe was there once again to bail out failed son Hunter. An attempt to justify the reversal used the same, labored excuse, that The Big Guy feared a weaponized justice system persecuting his flawed son.
If this sounds like psychological projection – Clueless Joe envisioning Trump acting toward his family as Clueless Joe has toward Trump and his kin – it’s fairly obvious to be the case.
Meanwhile, Trump on the campaign trail had promised pardons for many of the so-called Jan. 6 insurrectionists, who were jailed for having the termerity to question the 2020 election. Yes, some over-reached by entering the U.S. Capitol, possibly with urging by FBI instigators in the crowd, but their treatment has been extreme, with considerable overcharging and failure to have speedy due process.
Trump on Monday noted that leftist protesters can burn down cities and take over sections of same, with little to no legal consequences. Yet, the Jan. 6 people were guilty until proven innocent and given the most draconian sentencing
Because of this, Trump promised pardons and he delivered. Elections have consequences.
Note, Democrats, he didn’t lie about it in advance as Clueless Joe did, then try to slip it past the populace. You must be so proud of Joe, trying to hide his latest flood of pardons for his family with a release of the information even as Trump was being sworn in as president.
And to those whiners who lament that Jan. 6 protesters harmed police officers, this has been proven to be an overblown assertion. Also proven for the record is the most egregious act on that day was the fatal shooting of unarmed Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt by a troubled DEI Capitol Police hire whose checkered record included such notable achievements as leaving his loaded service weapon unattended in a Capitol bathroom, failing a shotgun qualifying test and assorted other shortcomings.
Meanwhile, Clueless Joe has pardoned a man convicted of killing not one, but two FBI agents. This brought negative feedback from the most unlikely of sources, notable among them Chris “Don’t Call Me Fay” Wray, soon to be former FBI director.
Wray, more prone to be a bootlicker of the left and proponent of all things anti-Trump, found a sense of moral clarity in doubting the wisdom of sending such a killer of government law enforcement people back onto the streets.
Note, no Feds were killed by Jan. 6 protesters and the injury claims of some police have been found to be, shall we say, exaggerated.
As if Trump had not given the left enough fuel to feed their penchant for hypocritical whining with his flood of executive orders, CNN and PBS, among other outlets with a leftist bias, were trying to gin up a controversy by suggesting that Elon Musk had given a Nazi salute at a Trump celebration Monday.
Congressman Jerry Nadler, who never met a meal he wouldn’t eat, managed to stir his pudgy fingers into action and posted his disdain for Musk’s alleged affront on X, ironically the social media platform owned by Musk.
But the Anti-Defamation League, the nonprofit group at the forefront of fighting antisemitism, said the Musk action was NOT a Nazi salute.
Such is the level of leftist desperation with elections having consequences that they will try to gin up controversy where there is no basis.
Perhaps this explains why CNN is losing lawsuits and PBS just might have its federal largesse cut.
By the way, I’ve seen side-by-side images posted online at citizenfreepress.com of Musk’s alleged Nazi salute, and a similar right-arm-raised, palm-flat gesture by Kamala Harris.
I guess Kamala was just trying to get the bartender’s attention.
