Jim Jordan Discusses House Judiciary Effort to Impeach Bill Barr…


The plan to impeach Bill Barr was clearly visible several months ago. A preemptive strike to diffuse the pending findings of the investigation by USAO John Durham.

The Attorney General has accepted an invitation to testify before the committee on July 28th.  If there is going to be a summer show-down between the AG and political operatives -including Lawfare- within the Judiciary committee, that hearing is likely to be the spark.

The Insufferable and Political Media Stupidity Around “The Russian Bounty” Narrative…


In case you might have missed the latest faux-controversy assigned by political operatives to the media narrative engineers, the issue surrounds leaked sketchy intelligence reports, to the New York Times, claiming Russians were willing to pay Taliban members to kill U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan.  The evidence provided by the Times includes:

(New York Times Graphic Source)

From this tenuous evidence footnoted with “according to multiple officials familiar with the intelligence”, democrat operatives in media desperately clutch their pearls and stake out another batch of apoplexy claiming President Trump is not doing anything about it.

Setting aside for the moment that nothing claimed by media or the DNC political operatives in/around capitol hill has any substantive intelligence to prove the claim, let’s first look at the underlying premise: ‘Russians are paying the Taliban to kill American soldiers.’

First, obviously these same voices need to ignore that in 2010 Iran was paying insurgent fighters in multiple fields of combat including Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria, to kill Americans. Those well-documented examples must be overlooked because despite the overwhelming evidence the Obama administration paid Iran over $170 billion in cash and entered a nuclear deal with them.  Once again, in order to retain their left-wing political position the media must pretend not to know things.

Iranian bounties on American soldiers during the 2010 Obama administration were rewarded. Contrast that against unsubstantiated rumors of Russian bounties on American soldiers in Afghanistan in 2020 being the most horrific and alarming situation in history.

It was reported in 2010 that five Iranian companies were winning construction contracts in Afghanistan funded with foreign aid. The money was sent back to Iran via the underground hawala money transfer networks and was used to pay Taliban fighters $200 per month. If they kill a U.S. soldier, they get a $1,000 bonus and a $6,000 bonus for the destruction of a military vehicle. Bounties began being offered as early as February 2005, when a U.S. government document reported that Iran was offering $1,470 for the killing of Afghan soldiers and $3,841 for the death of Afghan officials.

Taliban and similar terrorists are also trained in Iran and are paid for their time. Hundreds go to Zahedan in the winter. The first month is focused on learning how to attack convoys without getting captured. Improvised explosive devices (IED) are the trade taught in the second month. In the last month, attacks on military outposts are simulated.  (LINK)

Again, ignoring that Iran also funds Hezbollah, which involves payments for the killing of U.S. and allied western soldiers, the politics of the narrative engineers are so hypocritical they are choking.

Additionally, when Russia invaded Afghanistan, guess who was paying the Mujahideen to kill Russians?  Yup, that would be USA.  Not only did we pay the Mujahideen (the early Taliban) to kill Russians, we also supplied all the arms and munitions they needed to do it.  The U.S. were paying bounty for the killing of Russians.  Hypocrisy much.

Decades later, when U.S. President George W Bush invaded Iraq, again we put bounties on the heads of Iraq commanding officers we wanted to kill or capture.  Anyone remember the paying cards with the faces and names of the targets?

Oh, and lets not forget the billions that President Obama, Hillary Clinton and Leon Panetta spent on bounties in Libya and Syria where we gave money and weapons to al-Qaeda factions to kill Libyan and Syrian soldiers.

All bounties are not created equal I guess.

The entire argument underpinning the pretext of the claim is ridiculous.  However, what’s even more ridiculous is how the media has to set aside all prior information and all pretense of journalism in order to sell a narrative that, even if true, is nothing more than a continuation of proxy war fighting where the U.S has been the largest financial player in history.

Does Russia pay elements, possibly Taliban in Afghanistan, to maintain a forceful position against the U.S.?  Hell, I would certainly think the answer is yes.  Why should Russia be more magnanimous to our Afghanistan boondoggle than we were to theirs?

Does Russia pay the Taliban directly to kill Americans?  There is no direct evidence supporting that claim; and specifically the U.S. intelligence apparatus including the NSA, CIA, NSC and ODNI have said there’s no such direct evidence; but that’s not really the point is it.

Even if there was direct evidence that Russia was offering bounties against U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan, how is that different from Iran offering bounties against U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan during the Obama administration?

The entire premise of the outrage is ridiculous; and too make matters worse the number one facilitator of U.S. bounties paid to kill foreign fighters is Senator Lindsey Graham.

FUBAR.

Ayman Al Zawahiri and Osam Bin Laden

Mohamed Al Zawahiri was on the CTH radar since his release from prison in March 2011 during the Egyptian Islamist uprising.   The interim “governing” Egyptian leaders released Mohamed Al Zawahiri after they permitted the Muslim Brotherhood to re-organize following 30 years of banishment.   The Brotherhood then opened the jails to release all the Hosni Mubarak captured prisoners.

Mohamed al Zawahiri was the guy who coordinated and called for the protests at the U.S. embassy in Cairo September 11, 2012.  He is also the guy who coordinated with the Benghazi rebels in 2011 to assist their uprising against Libyan leader Qaddafi.

President Obama, Hillary Clinton and Leon Panetta paid these guys.

Mohamed planned to coordinate efforts in Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Libya, Tunisia and Turkey toward al-Qaeda North Africa (AQIM).  Meanwhile his brother, Ayman al Zawahiri, continued the same efforts in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq, while aligned with AQAP (al-Qaeda Arabian Peninsular).

In 1999, security forces picked up Mohamed Al Zawahiri in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), where he had settled with his family and was working as an engineer for a construction company.

He claims UAE authorities tortured him for four months — at the behest of the CIA — in an attempt to extract information about his brother. During that time, Zawahiri says, he offered to mediate between his brother and the West, something he believes could have prevented the Sept.11 attacks, but his overtures were rebuffed by UAE officials.

In 1999, he was extradited to Egypt to face terrorism charges related to Sadat’s assassination and conspiracy to topple the regime — charges he denies, but he was jailed by Mubarak in Egypt.   He was later acquitted upon appeal, but Mubarak refused to let him leave prison.   He remained in jail until March of 2011 when he was released.

Zawahiri spent the following five years in solitary confinement in Egypt’s notorious underground prisons. There, in a 6-by-6-foot cell with no access to sunlight, he says, he was repeatedly waterboarded, electrocuted, and subjected to sleep deprivation.

His family had no idea where he was, or even if he was alive, until it emerged that the United States wanted his DNA to compare it to a skull found in a cave in Afghanistan — one that might belong to his brother Ayman.

Zawahiri thinks that militant Islamist movements pose a big enough threat that the United States will ultimately yield to his demands. “Hundreds or thousands of attempts may fail, but one can succeed and destroy the Western civilization,” he writes in his proposal, citing al Qaeda’s attempts to obtain weapons of mass destruction and the escalation of violence in Iraq. “The next hit or string of attacks cannot be anticipated. No single group or persons can force themselves to control the situation or prevent it.”

Learn about his approach and his intentions in this article.

Judging by what the “West” has put this guy and his family through, it would be pretty darned difficult to think of him burying the hatchet per se’, without his intention to bury it deep in the psyche of the United States.

Apparently, “we” have created this monster, “we” have hardened him, and subsequently he holds MAJOR street cred with all factions of radical Islam.   This guy is a Martyr in life, he did not need death.  He says “pull the trigger” – everyone shoots.  

Given Mohamed’s  enormous Islamist pulpit, he will leverage influence over multiple varying factions within all of the aforementioned radicals (al-Qaeda, al-Nusra, Taliban, Salafists, Brotherhood etc).

Guess what happened next?…. Yep,  ISIS !

President Trump Highlights Mail-In Ballot Fraud Using Recent New Jersey Example…


Earlier this evening President Trump noted the ease of mail-in voting fraud by highlighting the recent New Jersey election where election fraud charges have been brought against against four people including:  Paterson City Councilman Michael Jackson (D), Councilman-elect Alex Mendez (D), Shelim Khalique, and Abu Razyen. [Background Here]

New Jersey – Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal today announced voting fraud charges against Paterson City Councilman Michael Jackson, Councilman-Elect Alex Mendez, and two other men in connection with the May 12, 2020 special election in the City of Paterson. All four men are charged with criminal conduct involving mail-in ballots during the election, Grewal said.

The investigation by the Attorney General’s Office of Public Integrity & Accountability (OPIA) began when the U.S. Postal Inspection Service alerted the Attorney General’s Office that hundreds of mail-in ballots were found in a mailbox in Paterson.  Numerous additional ballots were found in a mailbox in nearby Haledon.

Dueto the COVID-19 pandemic, all voting in May 12 elections in New Jersey was done by mail-in ballots.  (read more)

Nationally, Nancy Pelosi and top DNC Democrats have openly stated their intention is to force mail-in ballots in all states for the 2020 presidential election contest. The open intent is to use mail-in ballots as a purposeful way to win the election. To accomplish this goal panic around the COVID-19 virus is needed.

Mail-in ballots are notorious for voter fraud:

(1) Duplicate ballots can be sent to specific zip codes for specific parties allowing voters to cast several ballots.

(2) Fraudulent or counterfeit ballots can be created allowing unlimited fraudulent voting.

(3) The mail system can be used to control ballot delivery and/or return.

(4) Intercepted and selected ballot destruction is commonplace amid election precincts where wide-scale voter ballots have been used before.

(5) Political operatives working directly or bribing USPS employees for ballot control.

(6) Ballots sent to former addresses allowing multiple votes.

(7) Ballots sent to inactive or deceased voters allowing votes cast by ineligible persons.

(8) Millions of ballots sent to non-citizens as part of the motor-voter fraud; a common democrat initiative as used in California.

The list is long….  The entire process of mail-in ballots is built upon systemic and purposeful fraud intended to disfranchise eligible U.S. voters; and there is very little criminal accountability for the process.

Year-after-year, election after election, Broward County Florida has intentionally and purposefully used mail-in (absentee) ballots as the tool to manipulate their elections.

‘Touchy-Feely Joe’, Liberal Media’s Choice for Your Next President


Biden is a babbling idiot

'Touchy-Feely Joe', Liberal Media's Choice for Your Next President

If we can maintain enough clear vision to see past the garbage the nation is being fed by the liberal media tv and newsprint shysters, we should be able to clearly see that we are being sold some serious lies as the most critical 2020 elections are approaching. One of the biggest and most distressing of those lies is Joe Biden. Just as Tucker Carlson indicated a few nights ago, the Democrats have no other choice but Biden. And, at the same time, he is precisely what they were hoping to find. He really is just a shell of a man. It’s obvious that the only mind he has left is whatever is pumped to him through his teleprompters. And, the people who are supposed to be reporting our news to us impartially are talking this guy up as though he is truly the spotless rocket scientist his campaigners bill him as. He is a babbling idiot.

‘Touchy-feely Joe’ or Joe, “Gaffes-for-Laughs”, Biden is definitely the Democrat’s desperation toss

I don’t know if anybody remembers this. Most people, anymore, can’t seem to hang on to more than an hour’s history right after it happens. It was the Democratic debate, September 2019. I doubt that Joe Biden remembers much about that night,since it was obvious that Joe couldn’t even remember why he and all those other people were standing at podiums in front of a bunch of cameras and strangers. Nevertheless, it was so cool. One of the questions Joe was asked was his opinion regarding ‘reparations’ (government money—our tax dollars—given to the descendents of slaves we have never personally employed or known). And Mr. Biden dug in and began giving us directions to Mount Eiger and the recipe for a secret, herbal cure for cancer. He went bat-fecal-bonkers. And everybody pretended not to notice (until the next day’s papers came out—and then everybody became momentarily honest, due to the fact that the fix had not been fully assembled yet).

But ‘touchy-feely Joe’ or Joe, “Gaffes-for-Laughs”, Biden is definitely the Democratic party’s desperation toss in the final moments of their 2020 “Give Us Somebody!—Give Us Anybody!” Presidential-Campaign-Tour. There is no way the Democrats could, in seriousness, put forth a disaster like Joe Biden for a presidential candidate—without an absolutely guaranteed fix from all of liberal media (the ‘big six’) and the Hollywood entertainment empire, promising that guarantee being even stronger than what they had prepared for Hillary.

I have maintained from the beginning that somehow the Obamas are going to have something to do with the projected coming Democrat administration. In the unhappy event that Sleepy Joe is actually elected, watch for his vice presidential choice, and more importantly, his choice for Chief of Staff. Then check out his appointments. The hidden agenda will be revealed and you will know who is actually running our country. We need to remember that the Obamas just bought a $15 million home on Martha’s Vineyard. [Remember, they are staunch global warming fans—and so they are of course buying a mansion that sits about an inch above a purportedly rising sea level.]

Joe Biden’s inordinate preoccupation with the private space of women—especially little girls

That house has a helipad, a docking area for all sorts of boats and submarines—and it will be a no flyover zone for everyone including our own military. In other words, they can there meet with whomever and do pretty much whatever they please. But what bond does a relic like Joe Biden seriously have with Barack? Barack is supporting him now. But I don’t think Joe is going to be looked to for too much ‘presidencing’, should he make it past the final eliminator round.

So often, when I am forced to watch and listen to that clown, Biden, I feel close to spewing my lunch all over whatever newspaper or monitor I’m in front of. If ever there were a ‘poser for president’, Joe is that guy. I mean, if he campaigned against himself, both Bidens would lose. Nevertheless, Joe was, on the evening of that above-mentioned debate, asked his opinion of ‘reparations’. And I honestly believe he couldn’t deliver a straight answer for one of two simple reasons:

  1. He couldn’t remember what he might have said in past interviews about reparations and he was justifiably afraid of contradicting himself, or,
  2. [and most likely] He couldn’t remember what he might have said in past interviews about reparations. And he was justifiably afraid of contradicting himself.

Seriously though, the real reason is painfully clear. That, in the very moment you ask a question of Joe, Joe has already forgotten the question. This has been more than solidly documented several times during this, his third stab at the presidency. And people supposedly really want this character to be our chief executive?

In some of my recent articles I’ve discussed Joe Biden’s inordinate preoccupation with the private space of women—especially little girls. Until YouTube takes down the movies of Joe at different press appearances and photo ops, all you have to do is go and search through a shameful thumbnailed list of the videos of Biden’s ‘Roman hands’ wherein he is sniffing hair and very apparently copping feels of the little girls who obviously don’t appreciate his being so ‘friendly.’ But this is today undeniably part of the ‘rank’ and file of what happened to the so-called ‘Democratic Party’ when they, under Jesse Jackson’s brilliant leadership, became the representative organ and umbrella for what he called ‘the Rainbow Coalition.’ Jesse saw that there were a whole slew of weirdos-from-outer-space who did not feel at home in either the Republican or Democratic political parties. So he then, in 1984, developed his own ‘coalition.’

Today we have advanced to a nation full of coddled snowflakes who believe that government is only useful for signing checks

And today you see the fruit (pun perhaps intended) of what he conjured when he went looking for extra voting blocs. Do you want the textbook definition of anarchy? Keep an eye on the rainbow people. “‘Right and wrong?’ That whole thing is racism!” I remember when everybody started using ‘ebonics’ . TV shows then—suddenly—started featuring all sorts of sexual crudity, innuendo, and street language was introduced as a part of children’s communication with other kids their age. My readers will remember when the popular, alleged ‘song’, “Cop Killer” first came out. It was then that the very real devil had no more need of back-masking or disguising rotten words and messages in what growing minds would hear. The Democrats were even then completely fine with that sort of subversive progression.

Today we have advanced to a nation full of coddled snowflakes who believe that government is only useful for signing checks. Today’s brave new world revolves around freebies! And the left uses our tax dollars to prime the pump and make the world safe for themselves (job security for professional politicians). ‘Reparations’ has become a substitute and condensed, leftist term for a bribe, or, “We are willing to pay you in consideration for your vote.” En route to arriving at Joe Biden’s candidacy, other preliminary candidates postured many different promises that were tantamount to that exact notion. They included but were not limited to: ‘reparations’ (a.k.a. ‘MONEY’), loan forgiveness, tax breaks if you are gay, and/or other valuable legislative favors.

But the ugly bottom line is that Biden and his nut-job friends, Pelosi, Schiff, Hillary, Nadler and so forth, and a bunch of lesser Democratic players throughout our country, are all giving praise, rendering obeisance and lending credential to the crowd of wrecking crew whose new behavioral model is a not so bright guy who is advocating for all of his weirdo followers to burn down our nation as they see fit (or as he instructs them to). So, from the fact that they are pushing what appears to be a madman for president. And they’re doing that while visibly supporting the people who have vowed to destroy us. And given the fact that the new left (who can no longer really call themselves Democrats) is thereby promoting anarchy, violence, ungodliness, and bottomless genocide for unborn babies, to boot, how can anyone in their right mind not fight against such a fatal takeover?

It took the Obamas eight years to get this nation totally, racially on the brink of an all-out race battle

We know that the framers have to be rolling in their graves at 50,000 RPM right now. It took the Obamas eight years to get this nation totally, racially on the brink of an all-out race battle. Nearly all that nonsense had died during the Clinton administration. And Michelle and Barack resurrected the whole thing for their party’s profit. The tv’s liberal entertainment empire is keeping Americans fraught with fear while promoting a madman puppet to assume the most powerful office in a world on the edge of falling apart. And of course, the news machine, a.k.a. the swamp, is fully behind all of this—because they want an office on the second floor of the White House, just across the hall from whatever puppet is running the place. [They may be mightily surprised when they find out the hard way that the first thing an autocratic government does is shut down and completely control the media.]

The polls, we are told, have left President Trump so far behind Joe Biden that we just need to throw up our hands in the air and surrender. But given all this confusion, when we look at the facts there can be no confusion. The press and their new presidential hopeful are lying to us so hard, so egregiously, that we can only assume that they are doing one big, evil, final, full-court press in order to guarantee the worst for our future—and financial/power windfalls for themselves. I mean, the left has absolutely given us the unrest and horror that today surrounds us. How much ‘better’ will things be when they finally take complete control of our nation? On that day, a burnt out, touchy-feely Joe will be clutching his teddy bear and smiling from his chair facing the corner. He will be informed that he doesn’t even have to report to that stuffy old Oval Office or show up for any of those boring, confusing meetings. And he’ll be so happy. But he just won’t think to ask why.

Black Lives Matter Restarts “Polar Bear Hunting” Program – Michigan Authorities Charge 18-Year-Old Black Male Damire Palmer for Unprovoked Violent Attack Against White Macy’s Employee…


Similar to the well-known “knock out” game, violent black males began attacking random white people as part of the Black Lives Matter movement.  The objective is to violently beat any random white person while a friend or ally films the brutality.  It is also known as “polar bear hunting’.  CTH identified 28 victims in 2014 alone.  [Typical Example]

This is part of the BLM Marxist program of retaliation. Sometimes rape, gang sexual assault, or severe brutalization are part of the effort. This activity has laid dormant for a few years but surfaces again with the rise of the Black Lives Matter community.

If the random white person does not accept the beating, they are racist.

The media are allies in this BLM project.  Anyone who does not willfully submit to the BLM effort, is castigated as the source of their own brutality.

The latest example in Michigan ends with a familiar sentence: “Prosecutors said there was not enough evidence to support a hate-crime charge.”

[Michigan] – Michigan authorities have charged an 18-year-old black man for the “unprovoked,” caught-on-video assault of a white Macy’s manager, officials said.

Damire Palmer, of Mount Morris Township, faces one count of felony assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder for the June 26 attack on the employee inside the Flint department store. Palmer is still in the wind.

“This was an unprovoked attack on a Macy’s employee,” said Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton in a statement. “This behavior as seen on the video is unacceptable, it is criminal, and it cannot be allowed.”

In surveillance video that prosecutors obtained from Macy’s, Palmer walks around the store then approaches the manager from behind and clocks him in the head, knocking him to the floor, officials said.

While the manager is on the ground, Palmer pummels him, the footage shows, according to authorities. Palmer then exits the store with his brother. (read more)

Previous examples ignored by media in the last rise of the BLM movement:

Until we honestly confront the reality of what is taking place we cannot expect to see this trend stop. Every single one of these attacks is identical. A black suspect -usually a youth- a specifically intended random white or asian victim, a random blow to the face/head:

COVID-19 Hype is Needed In Order to Justify “Virtual Debates” Between Biden and Trump – (Among Other Motives)…


In order to support the most important political objectives of the DNC writ large in the 2020 election, COVID-19 hype is essential:

♦Without COVID-19 panic Democrats cannot easily achieve ‘mail-in’ voting; which they desperately need in key battleground states in order to control the outcome.

♦Without COVID-19 panic Democrats cannot shut down rallies and political campaigning efforts of President Trump; which they desperate need to do in key battleground states.

♦Without COVID-19 panic Democrats cannot block the campaign contrast between an energetic President Trump and a physically tenuous, mentally compromised, challenger.

♦Without COVID-19 panic Democrats do not have an excuse for cancelling the DNC convention in Milwaukee; thereby blocking Team Bernie Sanders from visible opposition while protecting candidate gibberish from himself.

♦Without COVID-19 panic Democrats do not have a mechanism to keep voters isolated from each-other; limiting communication and national debate adverse to their interests.  COVID-19 panic pushes the national conversation into the digital space where Big Tech controls every element of the conversation.

♦Without COVID-19 panic Democrats cannot keep their Blue state economies easily shut-down and continue to block U.S. economic growth.  All thriving economies are against the political interests of Democrats.

♦Without COVID-19 panic Democrats cannot easily keep club candidate Joe Biden sealed in the basement; where the electorate is not exposed to visible signs of his dementia.

♦Without COVID-19 panic it becomes more difficult for Big Tech to censor voices that would outline the fraud and scheme.  With COVID-19 panic they have a better method and an excuse.

♦Without COVID-19 panic Democrats cannot advance, influence, or organize their preferred presidential debate format, a ‘virtual presidential debate’ series.

[Comrade Gretchen Whitmer knows this plan, hence she cancelled the Michigan venue]

All of these, and more, strategic outcomes are based on the manufactured weaponization of the COVID-19 virus to achieve a larger political objective.  There is ZERO benefit to anyone other than Democrats for the overwhelming hype surrounding COVID-19.

It is not coincidental that all corporate media are all-in to facilitate the demanded fear that Democrats need in order to achieve their objectives.  Thus there is an alignment of all big government institutions and multinationals to support the same.

Nothing is coincidental. Everything is political.

 

UPDATE: Proved to a Certainty – Is Bubba Wallace “Rope Noose” a Hoax or Misunderstanding? All Talladega Garage Doors Have Nooses – NASCAR Video Evidence…


This has the potential to be very embarrassing for NASCAR.

Very Important Update at Bottom:  Absolute Proof.

When NASCAR rolled in to Alabama and the Talledega motor speedway, the story of a “rope noose” in the garage of Bubba Wallace grabbed media attention.   However, a NASCAR video of the exact garage doors at the Talledega motor speedway shows all of the garages have ropes and nooses on them.

The images above are from a 2017 NASCAR “GarageCam” walk through during the  NASCAR Camping World Truck Series garage at Talladega Superspeedway.  The rope with a “noose” on the end is a simple method to pull down the garage door to close it.  The noose provides a place to put your hand/wrist when closing the door.

Hat Tip Tazio Nuvolari who shares: “My guess on the “noose” incident in Talledega, watch this video, look close at the Talladega garage doors. Each one has a rope hanging down with a loop on the end to pull down the doors. One probably broke and someone just tossed it aside, then the crew member found it and thought it was something it wasn’t, now NASCAR is trying to figure out how to explain their stupidity.”

The ropes and “nooses” are clearly visible [particularly at 03:20] as the cameraman goes from garage bay to garage bay.  There are several rope nooses visible and a few of them are severely worn from use.  Check it out:

.

Is this just a simple misunderstanding amid a climate where NASCAR is sensitive to the current racial narrative sweeping the nation?

Did the Bubba Wallace team accidentally make a major headline grabbing story out of a simple mistaken perspective?  Or was the mistaken impression purposefully misunderstood by either the team or the organization to gain attention?   You decide.

According to the media:

ALABAMA – […] The discovery of the noose Sunday afternoon in Wallace’s garage stall comes as the United States, and NASCAR in particular, more squarely address America’s systemic racism in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd.

Wallace, the only Black driver in NASCAR’s top circuit, has been an outspoken advocate of the Black Lives Matter movement and the corresponding protests against racism and police brutality. He wore an “I Can’t Breathe” shirt before one event, repainted his car with the “Black Lives Matter” phrase and pushed NASCAR to ban the Confederate flag.

NASCAR said it is investigating the noose, and federal investigators said they will review the incident as well.

“We are angry and outraged, and cannot state strongly enough how seriously we take this heinous act,” NASCAR’s statement read. “We have launched an immediate investigation, and will do everything we can to identify the person(s) responsible and eliminate them from the sport.”

The racing organization said there is no place for racism in NASCAR and that the incident “only strengthens our resolve to make the sport open and welcoming to all.”

In addition, the US Attorney’s office for the Northern District of Alabama, FBI and the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division are reviewing the incident, US Attorney Jay E. Town said in statement.

“Regardless of whether federal charges can be brought, this type of action has no place in our society,” Town said.

A source with Richard Petty Motorsports told CNN that Wallace never saw the noose.  A member of his team discovered it and immediately brought it to NASCAR’s attention, the source said.

Wallace tweeted Sunday that the “despicable act” left him “incredibly saddened and serves as a painful reminder of how much further we have to go as a society and how persistent we must be in the fight against racism.”

“This will not break me, I will not give in nor will I back down. I will continue to proudly stand for what I believe in,” Wallace said.  (read more)

The odds that almost every garage door in the Talladega motor speedway has these garage door pull-downs that look like nooses, and this was not exactly what the “member of the team discovered”, is very small.  These are the exact garages that housed Bubba Wallace’s car.

These pull-downs are almost certainly what Wallace’s team reported to the NASCAR officials that started this international headline story.  [A Shorter Video to SEE]

MAJOR UPDATE:  We were finally able to locate a picture of Bubba Watson’s garage door.  The picture below was taken Monday, June 22, 2020 while FBI investigators were reviewing the incident.  The source of the picture is HERE: Racing News.

REPORT THIS AD

TALLADEGA, ALABAMA – The #43 Victory Junction Chevrolet, driven by Bubba Wallace (not pictured), waits in the garage area prior to the NASCAR Cup Series GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway on June 22, 2020 in Talladega, Alabama. (Getty Images)

Now here’s the same picture with some important notations.  Look at the manual garage door pull-down rope on bay #4.  Notice how short it is compared to the adjacent bay #5.

(Click Image to Enlarge)

We have a video from November 2019 at Talladega speedway showing the garage door pull-down for bay #4.   Many of the garage bay doors have those “noose” looking pull-downs to make it easier to use your hand.  Clearest visibility of Bay #4 at 00:53

REPORT THIS AD

.

You can clearly see in the video that Garage Bay door #4 had a hand loop tied into it.

That hand-loop, which could be claimed as a noose if that’s what you are predisposed to be looking for, was there in November of 2019 when the video was taken.  That hand loop, possibly misconstrued as a “noose” has been cut-off in the picture taken yesterday.

Here’s a side-by-side comparison: (click image to enlarge)

REPORT THIS AD

It wasn’t a noose, it was a hand loop to help make closing the garage door easier; and it wasn’t put there for Bubba Wallace, because it was there in November 2019.

Additionally, in November of 2019 no-one would know what garage bay would be assigned to Bubba Wallace in June of 2020.  It’s absolutely ridiculous to see this as targeted hate.

That’s it.

100% proof positive evidence of the situation.

Now, the questions remain:

(1) Was this incident purposefully misconstrued as a “hanging noose” to drum up racial controversy by Bubba Wallace’s NASCAR team?

(2) And was that intentional mistake made exponentially worse, purposefully, by NASCAR going public and orchestrating a ridiculous PR campaign around it?

(3) Were all those involved pulling off a demonstrable hoax in an effort to politicize and capitalize on a controversy?  With full forethought and selfish intent?

(4) Or was this some big, stupid, oversensitive misunderstanding?

You decide.

It will be interesting to see how NASCAR responds; but the clarity of the situation is beyond debate.  This “noose in a NASCAR garage” story was false.  This was not targeted racial hate toward Bubba Wallace; and it wasn’t even a noose in a NASCAR garage.

Quick, Retreat – The Biden/Clyburn Campaign and Key Democrats Now Reverse Position, and Oppose Defunding of Police…


CTH noted last night that something shifted.

It was clear the Biden/Clyburn plan was quickly adjusted due to something internal; likely polling.

Today, the background issue surfaces; the Biden/Clyburn campaign saying they do not support defunding the police.

“As his criminal justice proposal made clear months ago, Vice President Biden does not believe that police should be defunded,” Biden campaign spokesman Andrew Bates told reporters. (link)

Just as we suspected the insufferable stupidity -and ideology- of the far-left movement has been identified by the DNC as a dangerous political position to retain.  And so the retreat begins…. But, like all modern leftists always do, the Democrats begin the retreat by pretending they never supported the position in the first place.

In order for modern leftists to advance their extreme ideology they have to pretend not to know things.  The pretense allows them to avoid admitting the inherent hypocrisy within every leftist position. It’s a laughable situation and so easy to deconstruct.

Reminder:  (Brian Fallon and Bernie Campaign)

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey would not promise to defund the police. Remember:

But now all of a sudden “defund the police” really didn’t mean “defund the police’?

So what’s going on?…

…. EXACTLY what we suspected:
