Beware the “Anger Manager” – Judiciary
Chairman Jim Jordan Says He Would Accept
House Speaker Role
Posted By: earlybird, 10/5/2023 5:38:23 PM
My dearest friends, as much as I do not want to accept certain things, this one is critical to accept. Jim Jordan has shown over time that he is simply a purposefully placed “anger manager” on behalf of the Professionally Republican wing of the administrative state. (snip)For the past several years, as more intensity has swirled around us, Representative Jim Jordan has appeared as more of a useful “anger manager,” better positioned to satiate the masses than actually deliver any accountability results. The media appearances seemed to align with that intent, and then a very big datapoint surfaced that few -other than myself- seemed to be concerned about.

As noted by Politico in 2021, when asked about Donald Trump getting involved in midterm primaries, head of the National Republic Congressional Committee Tom Emmer told reporter Jacob Rubaskin, “He’s a private citizen, and he’s entitled to his own opinion.” “I would tell him that it’s probably better for us that we keep these people and we make sure that we have a majority that can be sustained going forward.”
Emmer followed later in March saying Trump getting involved in the GOP congressional primaries was “not gonna be helpful.”
Fast forward to 2023, Emmer is now the House Republican Whip and wants to be Speaker of the House.
We should all be aware of the domestic threat posed after several years of BLM alignment with various groups promoting Islamic Jihad. The extreme elements of the Palestinian movement have swelled in the U.S since 2009 and the introduction of sympathies for the Muslim Brotherhood.
In addition to the preexisting threat, Customs and Border Patrol are also raising the alert for potential Hamas, Hezbollah and Palestinian Islamic Jihad fighters to cross the U.S southern border as the influx of illegal aliens continues unabated by the Biden administration.
In a leaked memo from the San Diego Field Office of the CBP: “Individuals with terrorism connections are interested in
Kevin McCarthy has endorsed Tom Emmer for Speaker of the House, but is he even a conservative?
McCarthy apparently forgot to mention that Emmer was formerly a paid spokesman for the leftist George Soros-funded organization The National Popular Vote initiative.
Sources say Emer is everything BUT a Republican Conservative. Joel Mannarino posted this showing Emmer arguing AGAINST the Electoral College:

Back when I used to be a teacher at an English all-girls school and the older students were asked what they wanted to do when they left, alongside all the normal answers from the nice girls, a depressing minority of the nasty ones openly answered either “claim welfare benefits” or “be a prostitute.” (snip) before long, it slowly began to emerge that it was actually possible to claim free taxpayer money to skewer floozies with—at least if you were registered as disabled.
The slate is set for a Monday evening conference in the Republican House of Representatives as nine GOP politicians have registered by the deadline today to put their names in the nomination process. (snip) there will be a secret ballot vote on Tuesday.
The absolute worst-case scenario is Tom Emmer (R-MN) who has just received the endorsement of Kevin McCarthy. Emmer wants to abolish the electoral college for presidential races in favor of a national popular vote. Unfortunately, Emmer likely carries around 70 automatic votes from the professionally Republican caucus.
On the opposite side of that spectrum is Byron Donalds (R-FL) who is pure MAGA

Bank records released on Friday show Joe Biden received $200,000 from funds his brother Jim Biden siphoned from the failing health care company Americore. Beyond providing more proof that President Biden directly profited from his family’s selling of influence, this new evidence — when read together with Americore’s bankruptcy filings — reveals Joe has the money that rightfully belongs to innocent creditors. (snip) Biden knew “the same day James Biden wrote him a check for $200,000, James Biden had just received a loan for the exact same amount from business dealings with a company that was in financial distress and failing?”
CTH readers don’t need to spend too much time digging into the granules of this recent New York Times article about how Christina Pushaw organized an online “influencer campaign” for Ron DeSantis that has failed miserably [SEE HERE]. However, it’s still funny to see the confirmation, and the people from inside the operation telling the NYT the group gets daily email instructions.
I wrote about the obvious transparency of the effort well over a year ago, and then continued to track it as the operation unfolded and grew just before the “official launch” of the DeSantis campaign

A new report shows China is moving six additional warships into the Middle East amid concerns the Israeli War could expand into a larger regional conflict. China is aligned with multiple interests; and cunning Panda also supports the Biden administration end goal of a two-state solution in Israel.
(UK EXPRESS) – China has deployed six warships to the Middle East as the conflict between Israel and Hamas escalates, according to reports.

When news broke yesterday that Israel had bombed Al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza, killing patients, children, and staff, every “anti-Zionist,” “critic of Israel,” and most big American journalism outfits ran with the horrible story. The tale incited worldwide condemnation and recrimination. But it wasn’t true. Israel did not hit the hospital. The Islamic Jihad did. Hundreds of people did not die. The missile landed in a parking lot. It was Hamas disinformation.
The media’s disastrous failure on the Gaza hospital bombing story is one of the most vivid and instructive examples of the structural and inherent problems plaguing contemporary journalism. It mirrors many other fiascos of the past decade.
Today, the sketchy Pentagon statements about the USS Carney are starting to make sense. The initial suspicions within the originating statements {GO DEEP} are well founded. Today, the Pentagon is admitting the events in the Red Sea were “much more significant” than originally outlined. Here’s the big picture, and we will go a little deeper.
The USS Carney is an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer assigned to USS Ford Carrier Strike Group 12. As part of the October 8th deployment into the eastern Mediterranean, the USS Carney took up a defensive position for the strike group by going through the Suez Canal into the Red Sea.
In the New York case against President Trump’s business operations, far left Judge Arthur Engoron previously issued a gag order forbidding President Trump from criticism of any court employee. Today, Judge Engoron levied a $5,000 fine against President Trump because a Truth Social media post made prior to the order was visible on the Trump campaign website.
This judge is nuts. Literally, nuts. (snip) Engoron said in the order that a social media post by Trump attacking the judge’s clerk – which was deleted from the former president’s Truth Social platform – had remained visible on his campaign website two weeks after he had ordered it taken down.
Former President Donald Trump's peace-nurturing policies look "pretty incredible" in the wake of violence erupting in the Middle East, a billionaire Democrat says.
During last week's episode of the All-In Podcast, prominent venture capital investor Chamath Palihapitiya, who previously called the former Republican president "an idiot," says it is time to re-evaluate President Trump's accomplishments.(snip)Labeling himself "a Democrat who has been left 'homeless,' who is now definitely in the center, but probably leaning increasingly Right," Mr. Palihapitiya said that "Trump Derangement Syndrome" has blinded people to the Trump administration's achievements.

President Joe Biden’s foreign policy chief, Antony Blinken, says Americans must give foreigners the opportunity to migrate into their U.S. homeland.
“You have to give them an opportunity to do that,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken said at an event at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy in Texas.
Blinken did not urge his government peers to enforce the immigration laws that protect Americans from employers who hire illegal immigrants that undercut Americans’ bargaining power in the labor market. He also did not mention the many polls showing the growing public opposition to Biden’s mass illegal migration.

Mitt Romney voted to impeach President Trump for a phone call in which the president encouraged Ukraine to investigate allegations of serious corruption—coincidentally involving the Biden crime family—but according to a new book, the failed politician admits he had no idea what Burisma was when he voted to impeach a duly-elected president for calling on foreign governments to investigate alleged criminality. That is extreme ignorance (not to mention dangerous) when a senator is willing to impeach a president just because he doesn’t like him, all without knowing the facts.

Texas Democrat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee has apologized for a profanity-laced rant against a staffer that was made public this past weekend, but says the leaked audio was the work of a political opponent.
"To anyone who has listened to this recording with concern, I am regretful and hope you will judge me not by something trotted out by a political opponent," Jackson Lee, who is running for Houston mayor, said late Monday, according to The Houston Chronicle.
"I know that I am not perfect," she also said. "I recognize that in my zeal to do everything possible to deliver for my constituents I have in the past fallen short

'Grave concerns' 29 replies
Sen. Peter Welch, D-Vt., said Monday he has "grave concerns" about Israel's potential ground invasion into Gaza amid an ongoing war prompted by Hamas' terror attack on the Jewish State.
In a statement released Monday, Welch said he has "grave concerns about the wisdom and military efficacy" of an Israeli ground invasion in Gaza and that there is "no doubt" an imminent ground invasion would be "catastrophic for innocent Palestinians in Gaza and jeopardize urgent efforts to save hostages."
"Israel has the absolute right to attack Hamas for the brutal, heinous slaughter of more than 1,400 Israelis and the taking of more than 200 hostages,"

for House speaker as they try for a third time 27 replies
WASHINGTON — Republicans on Tuesday picked Rep. Tom Emmer as their nominee for House speaker. The nominee now goes to the full House for a vote.
It’s three weeks since Republicans ousted Kevin McCarthy. The House speaker will need to accomplish the seemingly impossible job of uniting the GOP majority. Emmer of Minnesota jumped ahead as the top vote-getter on early round ballots and was battling Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana on a fifth ballot.
Others are dropping out including Florida newcomer Byron Donalds, who’s aligned with Donald Trump, and Kevin Hern of Oklahoma. The nominee will also need to win a majority in a House floor vote.
Representative James Comer (R-KY) said Monday on Fox Business Channel’s “Kudlow” that he was “ashamed” that House Republicans have not elected a speaker after Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was removed from the position three weeks ago.
Anchor Larry Kudlow said, “I need a Republican speaker of the House, Mr. Chairman so you can go back to work and everyone else can go back to work. What’s happening?”
Comer said, “We’ve wasted three weeks. And, you know, this was a dumb move by those eight members of Congress. Many of them are on my committee. I like, you know, at least six of the eight.

I first noticed this topic about 10 days ago when Michelle Goldberg wrote about it. Simply put, American Jews who polls show mostly lean left, have been shocked and dismayed by the reaction of fellow progressives to the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust. Over the weekend there were several good pieces about this topic. First up is one published yesterday bt the Free Press. Author Konstantin Kisin says he heard a friend joke that some people woke up as progressive on Oct. 7 and went to bed as conservatives.

HOUSTON - The Sheila Jackson Lee for Houston satellite office was ‘attacked’ by a known conspiracy theorist and Republican operative, a statement from Jackson Lee's office said.
According to the release, they said Aubrey Taylor showed up at the office on Almeda Road and brutally attacked campaign Chairman Gerald Womack. The campaign issued the following statement to FOX 26 on Monday saying, "We are deeply concerned by these attacks and this is yet another example of how dangerous conspiracy rhetoric inflamed by Republican extremists has real consequences where people get hurt. We have taken additional security measures, and we will continue to move forward with our task at hand

Election Case 20 replies
Attorney Jenna Ellis, a frequent media presence in her false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump, pleaded guilty today in the Georgia election case.
Ellis, who was a former legal adviser to Trump, plead guilty to a single felony charge of aiding and abetting false statements and writing.
She was sentenced to five years probation, $5,000 restitution and 100 hours of community service. “I believe in and I value election integrity,” Ellis said in court. “If I knew then what I know now, I would have declined to represent Donald Trump in these post-election challenges. I look back on this whole experience with deep remorse.”
How Did Biden Manage To Lose $300 Billion?
20 replies
Friday afternoon, the Treasury Department reported that, despite a growing economy and low unemployment, the federal deficit shot up by $320 billion in fiscal year 2023. That’s unusual. But what’s really bizarre is why the deficit exploded.
According to the report, overall spending actually dropped by 2% compared with 2022 as the COVID-19 spending splurge abated.
What drove up the deficit this year was a sudden and completely unexpected 9% drop in tax revenues. Not only did revenues come up hundreds of billions lower than last year, but they were well below what everybody expected them to be.
Coca-Cola has quietly scrubbed references to their support for the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement from their website, according to Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
The updates to the website come amid backlash over the Black Lives Matter Chicago chapter’s support of Hamas terrorists on social media. The company was also publicly slammed by Cruz on his podcast last week over their financial support of the left-wing movement. Cruz took to Twitter to call out Coca-Cola for apparently stealth-editing the references to the organization from their webpage.

House GOP spirals into chaos as Emmer

becomes third speaker nominee dropped
in three weeks 16 replies
Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., has dropped out of the race for speaker hours after being named House Republicans’ nominee.
Emmer won a majority of the GOP Conference on Tuesday morning after five rounds of voting, against six other potential candidates.
But it quickly became clear that he did not have enough support to outright win a House-wide vote. With Republicans’ razor-thin majority, a GOP speaker-designate can only lose four members of their own party to win the gavel without Democratic support. At least 25 Republicans said they would not support Emmer in a House floor vote after he won the title.

Hard as it is to imagine, would his speakership bring no MAGA change...just hands across the aisle conciliation? Points to ponder. Read before you pounce.
