It's not just politicians any more. Yesterday Brian Kilmeade of Fox was stalked and threatened in NYC.

Their plan starting about 2 years ago was to unleash absolute chaos in society, something at least close to a civil war--widespread intimidation, violence and destruction.

But they are a bunch of pussies with a few psychos thrown in. If you really want to cause chaos, maybe start a civil war, you need to put your life on the line, not just break a window. Pfft. They got nuthin'. The snowflake revolution-- let's upset Senator Cruz's dinner! Big Grin

Crazed leftist tweet about ruining Kavanaugh gives the left's game away
By Monica Showalter
Why are Republicans and decent people everywhere celebrating the Senate confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh?

Lots of reasons, but one of them is tweets like this:

Ariel Dumas tweet: "Whatever happens, I'm just glad we ruined Brett Kavanaugh's life"

she later deleted the tweet.

The writer of this vile tweet is a writer on the Stephen Colbert show, and has nearly 40,000 followers on Twitter. As the Senate confirmation vote was gearing up, she wanted everyone to know that "whatever happens" she is "just" glad she ruined a man's life. Never mind if he was innocent, never mind any of the facts or corroborations or shifting stories of his accuser. The important thing to her was ruining his life. That was what mattered.

Sen. Cory Gardner reveals wife received graphic text of beheading after Kavanaugh vote

https://www.foxnews.com/politi...after-kavanaugh-vote

In the wake of his vote to confirm Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh on Saturday, Republican Sen. Cory Gardner, R-Colo., revealed to Fox News on Sunday that his wife had received a graphic text message with a video depicting a beheading, and that someone has publicly posted the names and addresses of his family members.

Gardner announced his support for Kavanaugh in July, and reaffirmed it after reviewing the supplemental FBI report into uncorroborated sexual misconduct allegations against him.

Late last month, Gardner received a letter from an anonymous individual apparently in Denver, alleging that Kavanaugh had "shoved" someone up against a wall "very aggressively and sexually" during an outing in 1998 in front of four witnesses. The allegation was later deemed not to be credible.

"Every victim of abuse, assault, and violence has been through an unspeakable tragedy and we need to do a better job listening to them, ensuring support is available, and fighting to end abuse of any kind," Gardner said in a statement prior to receiving the graphic text messages. "I hope that the partisan divide we all feel today does not hinder the people that have bravely come forward.”

Someone can let Ariel Dumbass know that Justice Kavanaugh's life, for the next 30-35 years as a supreme court justice, is going to be just fine.

Her's on the other hand may include bouts of depression, fits of rage, incoherent babbling and other such verbal nonsense.




Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless.

Overall, I cannot think of a worse three weeks for those who wish to put an end to the stereotype about women being spiteful, driven by emotion, and lacking in reason.


Ga-zanga!!!
I have sometimes laughed out loud at posts here, but never before have I startled the dust mites by shouting, “Oh, ho!” in response to anything I have read ever, anywhere.

I remarked earlier that the real victims of actual sexual assaults should be furious at the Democrats and the deluded women they cynically manipulated and exploited in this sorry affair, and hopefully that will have meaningful consequences. What Nolte’s statement above demonstrates, however, is something far more significant. Every misogynistic male who wants support for his belief that women are all of those things and more could not have asked for greater confirmation of their biases than the actions of the likes of DiFi, the other Democrat women senators, and the mindless, rabid demonstrators who supported them.

Are all women like that? Of course not. The two women I know the best aren’t, and neither is there reason to believe that most women who aren’t governed by unthinking rhetoric and gender politics are like that.

Unfortunately, however, we tend to reason and generalize from the specific to the general, and when some women—especially powerful, influential women—demonstrate such characteristics, it’s easy for some to tar them all with the same brush. I have stopped having discussions with a self-avowed “hairy-legged liberal” and fellow Mensa member of my acquaintance. I cannot but fear, however, that she allowed her leftist views to cloud an otherwise magnificent mind and fall into the same spiteful, emotional irrationality during the last several weeks. If I’m wrong and judged her unfairly with no evidence, well, that’s what people get for hanging out with a bad crowd.

Does Justice Kavanaugh have his clerks in place so he can hit the ground running? I haven’t been able to find anything about that on the web. I’m guessing that he’ll bring his D.C. Circuit clerks along.

Yes, he does. When nominated, judges select 4 people to serve as their initial clerks so that clearances and background checks can be done, and they can start getting up to speed on what will be required when the judge takes the seat.

In this case, Kavanaugh noted during his Used Ford Hearing that he had advanced more female clerks than anyone in the federal court system, and that the four clerks he had pre-selected for the Supreme Court were all women.

Ruined?

He was confirmed to what is arguably the best job in the world. He is beholden to no one and can do whatever his conscience and intellect tells him is the right thing.

Please ruin my life in that way.

I agree with your comments, but that 'was' a really horrific thing to type and share, and offers a window into the sick minds of our enemy.

I think he was referring to the murder and rape threats against his family and the dragging of his reputation through the mud. I thought "destroyed my family" was a bit over the top in his statements, but uncorroborated reports of rape and attempted rape plus the left's reaction definitely had the potential to destroy his or anyone's family life.
