We are the drain the swamp people

Armed trespassers

A video to inspire. Pastor lets them know in no uncertain terms — no warrant  — get out and ~~ we don’t have to listen to your BS one second ~~ get out now.  And yet the dolt  can’t comprehend the message.  Eventually they slink away. Not sure the Calgary Police was happy to be there.

Below they admit to being partners with the health gestapo

STATEMENT: Police Defend Decision To ‘Intimidate’ Polish Pastor Who Called Them ‘Gestapo Nazis’, Demanded They ‘Get Out’ 

Calgary police were recorded on video as they stormed into a church run by a Polish immigrant to Canada, who promptly and forcefully demanded they leave the premises and ordered them not to return unless they obtained a warrant. Today they released a statement acknowledging and excusing their presence at the church.

“One uniformed member of the Calgary Police Service attended a call to assist our partner agencies, Alberta Health Services and City of Calgary Bylaw Services, in relation to a religious gathering” the statement began.

“The concern was that the people in attendance were not adhering to the government’s COVID-19 public health orders,” they admitted. They then referred to the Polish immigrant who is head pastor of the church, Artur Pawlowski, as “The organizer of the gathering” and claimed he was “uncooperative with the health inspector, and repeatedly raised his voice asking all parties to leave the premises.”

“No tickets were issued at the time and it will be up to our partner agencies to determine subsequent enforcement activity in response to the situation,” the police seemingly threatened.

“We do not wish to disrupt anyone’s holidays or religious or spiritual events,” the Calgary police claimed, before admitting they did exactly that. “However, we must support our partner agencies when called upon to help ensure everyone can safely celebrate these occasions.”

As National File reported, Pawlowski, who immigrated to Canada from “Knurów, Poland, angrily forced police officers out of his church when they came to “intimidate” him and his congregants into calling off their Passover service.”

“Can you imagine those psychopaths? Passover? The holiest Christian festival in a year, and they’re coming to intimidate Christians during the holiest festival? Unbelievable. What is wrong with those sick psychopaths? It’s beyond me,” said Pawlowski. On Facebook, he wrote,“Police came to disrupt Church gathering! Gestapo came again to intimidate the Church parishioners during the Passover Celebration!!! Unbelievable.”

Since Pawlowski posted the video to Facebook, it went viral across social media as it outraged Christians and was viewed millions of times.

I’m a (not so) humble hero.

That doesn’t make me special. It appears there are thousands of us around.

How would I know? Well while I’m driving around, living life, I see these yard signs reading, a “humble hero lives here.” They seem to be everywhere.

But I digress. Let me describe my heroic actions

Yesterday, as I entered a local big-box store, a terrorist threw a grenade. Instinctively, I threw my body on that grenade, sacrificing myself to save dozens. Well, not exactly

Yesterday, I saw a vehicle speeding out of control towards a group of children. Acting swiftly, I pushed the kids to safety, but the car hit me straight on. Maybe not.

There was no grenade, there was no speeding car.

My heroic act?

Upon arriving at the door of said big-box store, I pulled my neck gaiter up over my mouth and nose. Since I do not have COVID-19, that mask did nothing. It filtered out exactly zero viruses, and protected absolutely nobody.

Yep, I’m a hero. Feel free to deliver my sign at your convenience.

Enter Into the Joy of Your Lord’: An Easter Homily From St. John Chrysostom  (excerpt)

‘Christ is risen, and life is freed.’

. . .

Come you all: Enter into the joy of your Lord. You the first and you the last, receive alike your reward; you rich and you poor, dance together; you sober and you weaklings, celebrate the day; you who have kept the fast and you who have not, rejoice today. The table is richly loaded: Enjoy its royal banquet. The calf is a fatted one: Let no one go away hungry. All of you enjoy the banquet of faith; all of you receive the riches of his goodness. Let no one grieve over his poverty, for the universal kingdom has been revealed; let no one weep over his sins, for pardon has shone from the grave; let no one fear death, for the death of our Savior has set us free: He has destroyed it by enduring it. He has despoiled Hades by going down into its kingdom. He has angered it by allowing it to taste of his flesh.

. . .

O death, where is your sting?

O Hades, where is your victory?

Christ is risen, and you are abolished.

Christ is risen, and the demons are cast down.

Christ is risen, and the angels rejoice.

Christ is risen, and life is freed.

Christ is risen, and the tomb is emptied of the dead: for Christ, being risen from the dead, has become the Leader and Reviver of those who had fallen asleep.

To Him be glory and power forever and ever. Amen.

• The great American pastime now uses Beijing as its messenger ( first link below)
  

Corporate America is rife with “wokeness” — anti-Christian, anti-conservative, anti-constitution, one world government promoters, liberal activism. We need to go all Saul Alinsky on them.

More than one target of influence can be engaged.  Pick several, make it easy on yourself as the message can be “received” when a few are demonstrably made examples of through reduced sales, counter shaming, and pointing out hypocrisy.  Let their corporate offices know how they have insulted you.

Forgo — substitute alternatives within sub-industries (rowing machine instead of weight machine) —  buy direct competitors and competing brands not offensively engaged  (goods and services and let them know why).  Let retailers know as well.  At least commit to reducing expenditures benefiting them and let them know why. Definitively cut out a few and do so as part of an organized campaign for a few so as to send the message on a timely basis. Reducing and communicating works.

The purpose is to put profit making corporations in their place. Kind of like it used to be when they didn’t find it useful to insult half the country and use the profits  that half supplied to do the insulting.

Corporate Major League Baseball and each of its teams represent a good and easy place to start.  No purchases directly related to it (maybe pick an advertiser in their network similarly woke and boycott them as well) .  Do not watch it or show an interest via internet searches for game reports.  If you are brave ask the restaurant-bar to change channels if that is all they have on

Major League Baseball (MLB)  Commissioner Rob Manfred kowtows to the most radical racist views of players and insults fans, again.*

“I have determined the best way to demonstrate our value as a sport is relocating this year’s All-Star Game and MLB Draft,” commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement.

In other words “our value as a sport” is assuming our players (Houston Astros) are too stupid or morally compromised to resist cheating in sports  . . . or voting.

Joe Biden had a few days previously said he “strongly supported”  moving the All-Star game from Georgia.  Just wondering if Biden would strongly support and urge boycotts of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China.

Professional sports has demonstrated a disdain for a large segment of its fan base, a contempt for America, and a complete estrangement from our nation’s traditions and values. 

At the NY Post:

MLB yanks All-Star Game out of Atlanta over Georgia’s new voting law

MLB is taking its ball and leaving Georgia.
The league announced on Friday that it is moving the 2021 All-Star Game out of Atlanta as backlash grows over a new Georgia law that is seen as an attack on voter access.

“I have determined the best way to demonstrate our value as a sport is relocating this year’s All-Star Game and MLB Draft,” commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement.

“MLB fundamentally supports voting rights for all Americans and opposes restrictions to the ballot box.”

Manfred’s decision comes as a growing number of corporations, including Atlanta-based Delta and Coca Cola, have spoken out against the legislation that was signed into law last week.

Democrats and advocacy groups have argued that it disproportionately affects minorities. President Biden referred to it as “Jim Crow on steroids” in an interview with ESPN this week and said he would support Manfred if he decided to move the game.

“Over the last week, we have engaged in thoughtful conversations with clubs, former and current players, the Players Association, and The Players Alliance, among others, to listen to their views,” Manfred said.(The league added that it would continue with plans to celebrate the life and accomplishments of Braves legend Hank Aaron. The league did not announce where the Mid-Summer Classic, scheduled for July 13, would be taking place now.)

MLB backwards is BLM; And Major League Baseball, like Professional basketball (NBA) and football (NFL)) are indeed, backward…or certainly oblivious to the fact that they have become political organizations, supporting an ideology shared by no more than 50% of the American people , if that. ..and probably far less than 50% of the ‘fans’ who buy their tickets or watch their TV game broadcasts.

As a follower of a team that  has won genuine affection on the part of its fans for its players, I say ‘enough is enough’! And, I don’t think I’m alone.

Professional sports has demonstrated a disdain for a large segment of its fan base, a contempt for America, and a complete estrangement from our nation’s traditions and values.

{Sports is the place where people of all ‘color’ have capitalized on their hard work and opportunity to become wealthy and famous beyond their wildest dreams. Sports has shown the goodness and opportunity of America…the venue where fans idolize and celebrate their ‘heroes’ without regard to their color or ethnicity. It’s the place where ordinary Americans can enjoy a time away friom their everyday challenges and problems.

But now, the very people who benefit the most from the ‘games’ are willing to tell the people, the fans, who’ve made them rich, famous and loved, that if they don’t share their political beliefs and their contempt for America’s traditions, values, and beliefs, they can ‘go to hell!’.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s time to tell them where they can go…as far as baseball is concerned and their “All Star” game, that would be, Beijing…go there, and, good luck!}  dlh

*Memes with exception of  the first two below as seen at  TooAthletic.com and reference other Manfred calls.  Enabling and excusing cheating, hurting the little people.

What’s this “sh-thole country” thing?

Wasn’t President Trump excoriated for using that term to describe countries in which abject poverty, rampant crime, corrupt government oppression is the ‘standard’?

Now, we are told that people are understandably fleeing from countries where poverty is all-pervasive, crime is rampant, and the people are oppressed by their corrupt governments. And, they are fleeing to the United States where the Government, for the political benefit of the ruling Democrat party, is ‘welcoming’…inviting, in fact, them to come.

“Come one, come all…” is the message of the “Biden-Harris administration”.

“Enjoy the benefits of America. free education, free health care, free child care, (hopefully) ‘universal income’, without necessity to work…”

The American taxpayer is, or soon will be, required to pay for all this free stuff because, after all, Americans are told, “these people are fleeing from crime, corruption, and oppression” in their home ‘sh-thole countries’…just don’t call them ‘sh-thole countries”!

Its not about the people, it is about their preparation, politics, ethics.  The law abiding we welcome from any country whatever their race or ethnicity as long as they adhere to our ideals and laws. Otherwise  world without borders has the same result as an unregulated landfill in every neighborhood.

• Biden Harris Border Policy not only treasonous
  

ABC NEWS video SHOWS SMUGGLERS DROPPING CHILDREN OFF 14 FOOT BORDER WALL 

This Is “Who We Are”!!

The “Welcome Mat” is out. The “Biden-Harris Administration” is inviting anyone who wishes to come to the United States…”enjoy our ‘freedom’, free education, free health care…luxurious hotel accommodations while you wait to be ‘settled’ near your fellow countrymen somewhere in the USA. No screening or identity verification necessary”

Even if it means handing over your children, even toddlers, to the Cartel’s smugglers…who collect anywhere from $3000 to $10,000 to literally ‘throw them over the border’, as this video so starkly shows.

“They just want a “better life” for their children, compassionate Americans are told.

Really…in every case?

The facts are, in many cases, the parents are willing to risk the lives of their children in the belief, broadcast widely by Joe Biden and many Democrats, that , if the kids make it to the US, the parents will then be able to join them and all will reap the fruits of American taxpayers’ “generosity”.

American parents, willing to risk the lives of their children for their own gain and benefit would be correctly seen as “unfit parents”, and possibly lose their parental rights, and even be jailed for ‘child abuse’. (It’s a “societal norm” thing, you know?)

Rita was all Hart with her “concession” statement

Uh, wait! No she didn’t. She ‘dropped her challenge’, according to the Wall Street Journal, in a way that bitter Democrats always do: In the now standard “Stacy Abrams way” Ms. Hart claimed she’d actually won the race for Iowa’s 2nd District congressperson if all the votes were counted…or at least the 21 ballots which had been thrown out but Hart decided would have swung the election in her favor.

“It was (the) toxic campaign of disinformation” around her challenge that prompted her to drop it, Hart said. (It had nothing to do, you understand, with the “increasing number of Democrats in competitive districts who were becoming increasingly uncomfortable” with the specious attempt Speaker Pelosi had chosen, according to the Journal article.

Ms. Hart disclosed that she was “saddened” that “some Iowans’ votes won’t count through no fault of their own.”

So, for the time being Democrats in Iowa’s 2nd District will have to be content that they at least have a “Stacy Abrams” Congressional Representative (I really did win, you know!). dlh

• The writing (vote tally) was on the wall
• Apparently Hart did not have the votes even in Zoe Lofgren’s committee
• Maybe some bile in this post, not unlike MMM is capable of, and Rita Hart
  

I was of the opinion that there would be enough Dem’s “taking a walk” on a floor vote or who would vote outright to seat Miller-Meeks should the House Administration committee under Zoe Lofgren (loaded with Dems well beyond their caucus ratio) issue a finding in favor of Hart.  Only a few Dems, maybe six would be needed to scuttle Hart’s chances.  The optics were just too much for a few not to see the light. A few even had the wits to say in recent weeks that they were unconvinced of the propriety of the challenge by Hart and admitted to the optics (more likely the most compelling reason).

Hart counted heads and issued her concession earlier today.

Having predicted the outcome we will also answer our posed question.  Miller-Meeks could not possibly be as bad as Jim Leach our former Republican congressman. His was a unique smarminess and treachery that only an Obama supporter who one time masqueraded as a Republican could muster. We pray MMM’s recent vote to support the Violence Against Women Act  was not a Leach maneuver (see previous related posts).  But then we sure as hell don’t hope she was sincere.  Oh well.

And henceforth we will “never-mind” that Miller-Meeks vilified Trump comparing him to mendacious Hillary in 2016 then, but after winning on his coattails  in 2020, in a monumental vote on January 6th sustained the most corrupt and most questionable election in US history, without insisting on due consideration of Constitutional delays, and arbitrarily approved, as in rubber stamped,  the hazarding of our Republic to the likes of a senile crook who is being puppet-mastered by people who want to destroy the American experiment in freedom.

But thank you for your service Madames et Monsieur Miller-Meeks,  Ernst and Grassley.  When push came to shove you folded quick and easy on the big one, a few flowery tut-tuts,  but were soon back to doing business in the swamp, keeping the country safe for ethanol and wind towers, placating your conservative base when you think it politically advantageous but lamenting how your hands were tied on the big-one.

Don’t worry readers, we understand that Republicans are still our hope for the future.  And we are grateful . . . not so much to those hired to do the right thing  . . . which they often rise to the occasion and do . . . but for that it could be much worse . . . we could have actually had Rita Hart in office.

OK enough of my release of a bit of bitterness.  Let’s move on to Hart’s.

Hart’s official statement via KWQC

WHEATLAND, Iowa (KWQC) – Rita Hart, who lost to Mariannette Miller-Meeks in the race for Iowa’s 2nd Congressional District seat by six votes in November, has conceded.

The Democrat released a statement Wednesday saying, “After many conversations with people I trust about the future of this contest, I have made the decision to withdraw my contest before the House Committee on Administration.”

She went on to say, “I am saddened that some Iowans’ votes will not count through no fault of their own.” . . .

What didn’t make it into the KWQC story about Hart’s concession statement was this, via the Washington Examiner:

“Despite our best efforts to have every vote counted, the reality is that the toxic campaign of political disinformation to attack this constitutional review of the closest congressional contest in 100 years has effectively silenced the voices of Iowans,” Hart said in a statement Wednesday. “It is a stain on our democracy that the truth has not prevailed and my hope for the future is a return to decency and civility.”

Advocating not for truth but her truth.  Priceless.

For the record, we suspect Hart is toast.  Dem’s will have to come up with somebody else to reclaim the seat. They think it belongs to them. And they are bitter.

• Her vote is blatantly inconsistent and not on an inconsequential matter.
• Why didn’t she explain to Dems that her states rights distortion regarding the electoral college resulting in getting rid of Orange Man and maybe the Republic, required her to oppose the Violence Against Women Act as written?
• As the bill moves to the Senate, Joni Ernst and Chuck Grassley have the same issue
• We will not be surprised if Joni Ernst goes all MMM, but we hope not

Here we are getting around to fleshing out our criticism of Miller-Meeks as inconsistent and out of step, but at least not resident evil (post two days ago)

First of all the legislation in question, The Violence Against Women is not inconsequential, it is a huge power grab and precedent essentially federalizing aspects of domestic crime and punishment reserved to the states.

Analysis of such legislation is available at PJ Media and Heritage.org

The Real Reason Why 172 Republicans Opposed the Violence Against Women Act

Serious Flaws in the Violence Against Women Act Reauthorization Bill

Readers will understand that the constitutional subversion is real and the implications are beyond states’ rights and federalism impacting individual rights covered by the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 10th, 14th Amendments and more.

What does MMM not understand about our Constitution and how crime and punishment is largely left to the states?   The founders did so to control federal power. Does MMM not understand or appreciate that for example murder is a state crime, individual states are responsible for establishing the degree of criminality, the investigation and any trial and prosecution and in applying the punishment. Why are or should the matters addressed in the Violence Against Women Act be any different? Injecting a federal punishment, onus whatever into a domestic crime matter is an assault on states rights.

So her position regarding fealty to states rights pronounced in her statement about why she voted to rubber stamp electoral processes in all states (see earlier post) is at odds with the incredibly weak excuse to federalize domestic crime and punishment. Her vote is definitively inconsistent.

The out-of step part is evidenced not only by her minority position within the caucus as a whole on the matter but also as regards Republican women in the House.   Indeed Republican women opposed the legislation to the same degree as other Republicans so it was not a “women vote thing”.  Only four Republican women House members supported it including MMM.

Miller-Meeks should have been asking what do fellow caucus members and women Elise Stefanek, Claudia Tenny, Virginia Fox, Nancy Mace, Diana Harshbarger,
Beth Van Dayne, Cathy Rodgers,, Kay Granger, Carol Miller, Ashly Hinson, Debbie Lesko, Michelle Steel, Lauren Boebert, Kat Carmack, Marjorie Greene, Michelle Fischbach, Mary Miller, Lisa McClain, Ann Wagner, Vicky Harzer, Jackie Walorski, Viktoria Sparta, Yvette Herrell, Liz Cheney know about states rights and domestic violence and the Constitution that she does not?

The Republican men voting for it included the likes of Fred Upton  . . .  nuff said.
