WATERGATE EVERY WEEK: USING THE FBI TO SUPPRESS A POLITICAL REVOLUTION

A new Watergate every week.  A very appropriate analogy to what his happening in our government today.  The author of the article gets this exactly right.  And he also correctly nails the essence of WHY we’re seeing a new Watergate every week.  Here’s the money quote that sums it up.

These are the police state tactics usually used by Communist dictatorships where domestic security agencies accuse the political opposition of treason, spy on them, raid their homes on fake charges and then look for anything that can be used to put them away. Just like in Russia. And for the same reasons.

Russian domestic security agencies, from the KGB to the FSB, used these tactics against political opponents who might pose a threat to their rule. That is exactly what’s happening here.

The democrats are communists.  

Everything the democrats believe and support is not found in the Constitution, but can be found in the Communist Manifesto.

All the people they look up to are Marxists, communists, socialists, and acolytes of them who prescribe how to advance the cause of totalitarian communism.

All of the tactics they employ to destroy their political opponents are those of the communist agitators such as Alinsky.

Everything the democrats stand for directly conflicts with the things America was founded on and for.

We are witnessing a communist revolution, or more accurately a Menshevik revolution right here in America just as took place in Russia.  The history of communism across the world is not one of peace, prosperity, and happiness.  It is a history of totalitarianism, oppression, death, and suffering.  It is important to understand this history to see where the communists in America are taking us.  For the most recent example, look at Venezuela.  It NEVER ends well.

The chances that communism will work THIS time are about as good as surviving a jump from the top of the Empire State Building on the SECOND attempt.  If we don’t stop it here and now, they will destroy America as we know it, and we will be the next Venezuela. 



WATERGATE EVERY WEEK: USING THE FBI TO SUPPRESS A POLITICAL REVOLUTION

From Steele to Mueller, the cost of overturning the 2016 election.

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical left and Islamic terrorism.

In the early seventies, political operatives disguised as delivery men broke into a Washington D.C. office. These efforts to spy on the political opposition would culminate in what we know as Watergate.

In the late teens, political operatives disguised as FBI agents, NSA personnel and other employees of the Federal government eavesdropped, harassed and raided the offices of the political opposition.

The raids of Michael Cohen’s hotel room, home and office are just this week’s Watergate.

Political operatives have now seized privileged communications between the President of the United States and his lawyer. Despite fairy tales about a clean process, these communications will be harvested by the counterparts of Peter Strzok, who unlike him are still on the case at the FBI, some of it will appear in the Washington Post and the New York Times, and some will be passed along to other political allies.

That’s what happened at every juncture of Watergate 2.0. And it only follows that it will happen again.

Just like the eavesdropping, the process will be compartmentalized for maximum plausible deniability. The leakers will be protected by their superiors. The media will shrilly focus the public’s attention on the revelations in the documents rather than on the more serious crimes committed in obtaining them.

Nixon couldn’t have even dreamed of doing this in his wildest fantasies. But Obama could and did. Now his operatives throughout the government are continuing the work that they began during his regime.

Attorney-client privilege is just one of those rights we have to give up to protect ourselves from a conspiracy theory invented by the Clinton campaign. (But no amount of dead Americans can ever justify ending immigration from Islamic terror states or deporting illegal alien gang members.)

We are at the latest stage of a process that began when the Clinton campaign funded a dossier alleging foreign ties by her political opponent. It did this using a law firm while lying on its FEC disclosures about payments to that firm. (But unlike Cohen, Hillary’s lawyers will never be raided by the FBI.)

That dossier was then used to justify eavesdropping on Trump associates by political allies in the State Department, the FBI, the CIA and the National Security Council. This wasn’t really breaking new ground. Obama had already been caught using the NSA to spy on members of Congress opposed to his Iran Deal.

The contents of the dossier were rambling nonsense. Its claims about Michael Cohen were easily disproven. But that covert investigation was transformed into an overt one with Mueller. And Mueller’s very public investigation follows the same path as the secret investigation by Obama associates. Both used the dubious claims of the Clinton dossier as the starting point for an endless fishing expedition.

Eavesdrop enough, raid enough, squeeze enough and you will eventually find something. And even if you don’t, you can always manipulate them into denying something and nail them for lying to the FBI.

Keep squeezing and maybe you’ll even find someone willing to lie under oath for you.

Mueller has yet to deliver on Russian collusion. But Susan Rice and Samantha Power couldn’t do it either. Instead they all assembled a vast network of international conspiracy theories whose only purpose is to justify more raids, more eavesdropping and more fishing expeditions.

These are the police state tactics usually used by Communist dictatorships where domestic security agencies accuse the political opposition of treason, spy on them, raid their homes on fake charges and then look for anything that can be used to put them away. Just like in Russia. And for the same reasons.

Russian domestic security agencies, from the KGB to the FSB, used these tactics against political opponents who might pose a threat to their rule. That is exactly what’s happening here.

This isn’t just an ideological war. Washington D.C. is fighting to suppress a political revolution.

Even Obama and Hillary’s political operatives couldn’t have pushed the DOJ and other agencies this far outside their comfort zone under ordinary circumstances. There had been previous abuses of power, under JFK, LBJ, Nixon and Clinton, but there has been nothing like this since the Alien and Sedition Acts or Madison’s Machiavellian scapegoating of the Federalists for the disastrous War of 1812.

To apolitical operatives like Mueller, Strzok and their many allies in the FBI, Trump is an unprecedented threat to the business of the Federal government. They shrug at the economy or tax reform, except where it affects them. And social issues don’t move them either. They are as interested in the ideological left-right battles as the nomenklatura were in the works of Karl Marx.

There are indeed two Americas. One is your country. The other consists of the people who run it. Both have their headquarters in Washington D.C. And they get along pretty well most of the time.

The people are allowed to vote for whomever their party chooses. They can even vote for less respectable choices as long as they understand that those people will never get anywhere. Then the people they select will go to Washington D.C. and be briefed on what they can and can’t do. There they will rent pricey condos, bicker with each other, eat at nice restaurants and, in theory, make laws.

Then the nomenklatura, the bureaucracy that runs the country, will transform laws into policy. The policy will be shaped by judicial rulings and expert opinion. By the time the policy sausage comes out the other end of the Imperial City, it will have very little to do with what the voters might have wanted.

There are plenty of gatekeepers to keep a common sense idea from being implemented. If a congressman proposes that sensible measure you suggest to him, it will never leave the committee or it’ll be watered down. The Senate will neuter it or the president, on the advice of his advisors, will veto.

And then came Trump.

The gates began to collapse. The nomenklatura propped them up. Judicial rulings were used to block everything. The petty bureaucracies within government agencies stalled and sabotaged. Former agency bosses, their internal allies and the media colluded to target Trump’s agency heads with scandals.

The elected head of the government and the unelected heads of the government were at war.

Mueller is the tip of the nomenklatura’s spear. The DOJ is the bluntest weapon in the D.C. arsenal and for the first time it’s been completely unleashed to undo the results of a presidential election.

The same leftists that fought for the civil rights of terrorists and drug dealers, cheer government eavesdropping on the political opposition and the violation of attorney-client privilege because it was never about civil rights, it was about protecting their political allies and punishing their enemies.

Radical movements are inherently totalitarian. And totalitarians view process, whether of elections or criminal justice proceedings, as a train that they ride until they take power and then disembark.

As Roger Nash Baldwin, a co-founder of the ACLU, wrote, “If I aid the reactionaries to get free speech now and then… it is only because those liberties help to create a more hospitable atmosphere for working class liberties… When that power of the working class is once achieved, as it has been only in the Soviet Union, I am for maintaining it by any means whatever.”

The working class of Washington D.C. has achieved quite a bit of power along with a fortune in overseas bank accounts, mansions, private schools and all the privileges of membership in the ruling class.

But the leftists cheering Mueller’s abuses might pause to consider the consequences.

The Romans broke their republic. Now we’re breaking ours. The pink hat brigade enlisted the Praetorian Guard to bring down Trump. But the Roman lesson is that once you break the republic, it stays broken. Once you use political mercenaries like Mueller to overturn an election for you, they might not stop.

The left likes to believe that it can close Pandora’s Box whenever it pleases. History tells us differently.

The Praetorian Guard didn’t stop. What can be done once, will be done again. When control of the DOJ and FBI matters more than elections, then voters will be irrelevant and the Praetorian of D.C. will rule.

And then a new Watergate really will happen every week.

The Enemy Within

How many times do I have to say it?  McCarthy was RIGHT.  Communism is diametrically opposed to the values that founded America, and we USED TO fight to keep communism OUT of America.  Now we not only DON’T fight it any more, we are VOTING FOR IT.

Make no mistake, the ideology that Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Bernie Sanders, the democrat party, and those identifying as “progressives” in America are pushing communism, or a stepping stone to it.  The ignorant among us look as someone like Bernie Sanders and think he’s just a nice old man.  But the ideology he openly espouses, socialism, is merely communism with out the force.  In the Russian communist revolution, you had two major camps.  The Mensheviks, and the Bolsheviks.  They both wanted the same things, but the Mensheviks thought it could and should be achieved at the ballot box, while the Bolsheviks had no problem using force to achieve their goals.  In today’s America, the socialist democrats are the Mensheviks, and “progressives” are the Bolsheviks.

What do the communists want?  Control.  Centralized government control of basically everything.  They sell a Utopian view of equality, but it is a smoke screen.  There will be two classes.  The ruling class that is all powerful and very well off, and everyone else.  Everyone else will be poor and miserable.  Communist Russia, the Soviet Union, was the model for what we can expect.  Venezuela is a more modern example.

To achieve their desired goals, the communists will stop at nothing.  They will cozy up to enemies in order to destroy other enemies, then betray the enemies they were cozying up to.  You can see this happening right now as the communist progressive left is trying to destroy Christianity.  They are cozying up to muslims and selling islam as a good thing, using it as one of many hammers to strike against Christianity.  Once they have destroyed Christianity, they will turn on muslims, and any other religion.  Under communism, there can be no religion other than the government.  Worship of anything other than government can not be tolerated.  They have used the same strategy with blacks in America for decades.  They have promised blacks the moon and stars in exchange for their vote, but delivered none of the promises.  Now they are abandoning blacks for the newest protected class of Hispanics and illegal aliens.  They see that flooding the nation with these people will achieve their goals more quickly than they could be achieved using blacks.  Too bad that such a small percentage of blacks in America can see this for what it actually is.  Same with gays, transgenders, and any other faction group that the left tries to split us into.  The communist progressives see you as nothing other than a tool to dismantle America as we once knew it.

The bottom line is this.  As a nation we have reached a T-intersection.  We can turn left, and follow the communists to sure destruction, or we can turn right and try to salvage what’s left of the American way, and return to opportunity and prosperity.  A vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote for that left turn, and a vote for destruction.  You may not like Trump, and I’m not a big fan, but at this point is the only viable opportunity to prevent that hard left turn.  Keep these things in mind as you go to the polls on November 8th.  A vote for Hillary, Stein, Johnson, or McMullen is a vote for that hard left turn.  The vote for Hillary needs no explanation.  But a vote for any of the other three is a wasted vote because none of them has a chance at getting elected.  McMullen sounds like a much better choice than Hillary, but has no chance beyond the borders of Utah.  Johnson and Stein are both for open borders, and would be almost as disastrous as Hillary.  Trump may say “mean things,” but has surrounded himself with good people and has at least a chance of making a positive impact on America.  If you’re a “never Trumper,” you own Hillary Clinton if she gets elected.  That includes the RINOs like the Bush family, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, John McCain, and a host of others calling themselves “Republicans” who are quietly supporting Hillary.

Hillary Clinton: America’s Most Dangerous Enemy Within

From Florida, I flew out to Reno to entertain at the 2016 Nevada Women’s Expo. In between my shows, I made pit-stops in my hotel room. Folks, I could hardly believe what I was seeing. Every news TV channel I turned to was beating the crap out of Trump trying to brand him an abuser of women. Leaked Hillary emails have revealed that the mainstream media gets its marching orders from the Clinton campaign.

Thus, the media fix is in: portray Trump in a red hoodie with a pitchfork; portray wicked-crooked Hillary as angelic, wearing a pure white flowing gown. Never have I seen such a shock-and-awe orchestrated media campaign to demonize a candidate. Continue reading

Some on the Left ADMIT that Obamacare IS Socialist Redistribution



It is specifically because this comes from the NY Times that makes this so newsworthy. The writer says what conservatives have said all along. Redistribution is the core of Obamacare, but Obama and company couldn’t admit that because redistribution isn’t popular with a majority of Americans.

Also at the core of Obamacare is the pseudo-Marxist forceful takeover (by legislation rather than by revolution) of the healthcare and insurance industries.

I’ve long said that Barack Obama is more than simply a Marxist, or a socialist, or a progressive/communist (progressives used to be called communists until it became ‘uncool’ to be called a communist in America).  Barack Obama is the Venn diagram overlap of all three, wrapped in a layer of Saul Alinsky for good measure.

Barack Obama is a PROGRESSIMARXUNIST.

Don’t Dare Call the Health Law ‘Redistribution’

By
Published: November 23, 2013

WASHINGTON — Rebecca M. Blank was a top candidate in 2011 to lead President Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers, but then the White House turned up something politically dangerous.

“A commitment to economic justice necessarily implies a commitment to the redistribution of economic resources, so that the poor and the dispossessed are more fully included in the economic system,” Ms. Blank, a noted poverty researcher, wrote in 1992. With advisers wary of airing those views in a nomination fight, Mr. Obama passed over Ms. Blank, then a top Commerce Department official and now the chancellor of the University of Wisconsin. Instead he chose Alan Krueger, a Princeton economist.

“Redistribution is a loaded word that conjures up all sorts of unfairness in people’s minds,” said William M. Daley, who was Mr. Obama’s chief of staff at the time. Republicans wield it “as a hammer” against Democrats, he said, adding, “It’s a word that, in the political world, you just don’t use.” Continue reading

Obama Admin. Hands Out Pamphlet: “What To Do When The Veteran In Your Classroom Attempts A Mass Shooting”

Veterans all across the country are upset with the news that a new pamphlet has been circulated by the Department of Education titled, “What To Do When The Veteran In Your Classroom Attempts A Mass Shooting.”

The veterans are taking the stance that this makes it look like “all veterans are PTSD-crazed cauldrons of rage”.

The Department of Education is rationalizing the debate by saying there are other pamphlets like “What To Do When The Hispanic In Your Classroom Attempts A Mass Shooting,” “What To Do When The Gay Student In Your Classroom Attempts A Mass Shooting,” and “What To Do When The Special-Needs Child In Your Classroom Attempts A Mass Shooting.”

This does not mean that everyone with these specific lifestyles or disabilities targeted by these pamphlets have the potential or desire to commit a mass shooting, but are more of a just-in-case type of reading material.

They also offer the comfort that the pamphlets were written by retired Marine “Gunner” with tactical and weapons training. However, these condolences aren’t satisfying the agitated veteran population.

Obama Withholding Death Benefits for Fallen Soldiers’ Families

For those who haven’t attended a ramp ceremony in a combat zone for a guy you were eating in the chow hall with the day before, where that guy is now in a box being loaded on an airplane for one last trip home, you can’t understand how #@$%^&* mad this makes me. These men and women signed a blank check for their nation with their body as collateral. More so than the welfare recipients, more so than people receiving social security, and DAMN sure more than the @#$%^&* politicians who managed to get their pay classified as “mandatory” or “non-discretionary,” we OWE these men and women, and now their families who sacrificed their loved ones for us, the honor, dignity, and support they DESERVE following the loss of a loved one in combat. Is it any wonder that the Marxist-in Chief’s approval rating has dropped to 37%? Does ANYONE think his approval rating would be above single digits if the media weren’t STILL covering for this tyrant? This petulant child usurper is so far beyond deserving impeachment that words simply can’t describe what he deserves now. Not to mention that actually putting it into words would get me a visit from the black helicopter mafia.



Pentagon Withholding Death Benefits for Fallen Soldiers’ Families

The Pentagon has confirmed it will not pay death benefits to the families of troops killed in combat during the so-called government shutdown.

With Obama’s recent startling admission that he won’t approve any measures to partially restore suspended government payments for purely political reasons, that puts the blame for this outrage squarely on his shoulders.

“Unfortunately, as a result of the shutdown, we do not have the legal authority to make death gratuity payments at this time,” said Lt. Cmdr. Nate Christensen, a Defense Department spokesman. “However, we are keeping a close eye on those survivors who have lost loved ones serving in the Department of Defense.”

The House intends to vote Wednesday to restore funding for the payments. Speaker John Boehner has accused the Obama administration “of needlessly withholding the money.”

Over the weekend, four soldiers — two of them Army Rangers — and one Marine were killed while conducting combat operations in Afghanistan. The bodies of the four soldiers will be returned to Dover Air Force Base on Wednesday.

Due to the impasse, the families of 25-year-old 1st Lt. Jennifer M. Moreno; 24-year-old Pfc. Cody J. Patterson; 24-year-old Special Agent Joseph M. Peters; 25-year-old Sgt. Patrick C. Hawkins; and 19-year-old Lance Cpl. Jeremiah M. Collins, Jr. will not receive the $100,000 payment that they would have otherwise received within three days of the death.

Adding further insult, the families will have to pay for their own travel to Dover. That’s a bill the Pentagon also says it can’t pay because of the partial shutdown.

Privately, Defense Department officials say they wish they could pay the families and they admit it’s a disgrace that deserves national attention.

Boehner claimed a bill passed by Congress and signed by the president last week to pay America’s troops should have given the Pentagon the latitude “to pay all kinds of bills, including this.”

Reintroducing Obama Economic Advisers, Cloward and Piven

For those who are not familiar with, or have forgotten the influence of Obama’s “economic advisers” Cloward and Piven upon his strategy, and our current situation, here’s a refresher.

The Cloward/Piven Strategy of Economic Recovery

By Nancy Coppock

Their strategy is to bring about change by overwhelming and collapsing the system.  Sadly, it's working.

Their strategy is to bring about change by overwhelming and collapsing the system. Sadly, it’s working.

Using borrowed money for a band-aid bailout of the economy should seem backwards to most people. However, it likely is a planned strategy to promote radical change. Those naively believing that President Obama is simply rewarding his far-left base, and will then move to the political center, must wise up.
The assumption that Obama will need the nation to prosper in order to protect the 2010 mid-term election incorrectly assumes that he esteems free market capitalism. He does not. Rather than win through superior ideas and policies, the Democrat plan for success in the mid-term elections is to win by destroying political opposition.
Obama adheres to the Saul Alinksy Rules for Radicals method of politics, which teaches the dark art of destroying political adversaries. However, that text reveals only one front in the radical left’s war against America. The Cloward/Piven Strategy is another method employed by the radical Left to create and manage crisis. This strategy explains Rahm Emanuel’s ominous statement, “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” Continue reading

Obama’s Jobless Numbers DON’T ADD UP

As with everything the Obama administration has tried to push on the American public, the numbers JUST. DON’T. ADD. UP.  The administration, in this case the now obviously biased Bureau of Labor Statistics, conveniently quits counting people who just can’t find a job.  The labor participation rate is lower than it has been in a long, long time, which SHOULD mean that the unemployment rate is going UP instead of down.  Well, that just wouldn’t look good for Obama, now would it?  So, what do they do?  They do as they’ve always done and adhere to the Alinsky principle that the ends (of keeping power) justify the means of lying or other treachery to preserve it.  They basically created an artificial “unemployment rate” that only counts select data, and in a way the looks more favorable to the administration.  Were they counting and reporting the statistic they same way they did during the Great Depression, the rate would be much, much higher.  For example, when people run out of unemployment benefits, they just quit counting them as “unemployed.”  And they slyly neglect to report an increase in GOVERNMENT employment as public sector employment.  They also fail to mention that there has never been a single month since the recession started where more jobs were created than that needed to simply keep up with the number of people entering the work force from college graduations and other sources.  So, how can the unemployment rate be going down???

Simple answer, only by lying about it.

EDITORIAL: Obama’s fudged unemployment numbers

Official jobless statistics aren’t working

By THE WASHINGTON TIMES – The Washington Times | Friday, October 5, 2012

It says a lot when a government jobs report is so out of line with reality that no thoughtful person can take it seriously. At best the new unemployment number is a fluke; at worst it is the product of partisan hacks.

The Department of Labor reported Friday that total nonfarm payroll employment increased by a net 114,000 in September. This poor showing — it reflects a 28,000 drop from the previous month — should have resulted in unemployment increasing by a tenth of a percent. Instead, it dropped by 0.3 percent to 7.8 percent. Call that Chicago-style math.

Top 10 Liberal Hit Jobs

by Human Events
11/12/2011

When liberals are losing a political issue, they won’t hesitate to smear their opponents, even if the attacks are unfounded.  Here are the Top 10 Liberal Hit Jobs:

1.  Robert Bork​:  When President Reagan​ nominated Robert Bork to the Supreme Court, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy led the charge to defeat the brilliant jurist by any means necessary.  Kennedy went to the Senate floor with this fanciful smear:  “Robert Bork’s America is a land in which women would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters, rogue police could break down citizens’ doors in midnight raids, schoolchildren could not be taught about evolution, writers and artists could be censored at the whim of the government.”

2.  Sarah Palin:  The Left is so obsessed with the former Alaska governor that a new disorder—the Palin Derangement Syndrome—has been termed.  While the media forgot to vet the 2008 Democratic presidential nominee, news organizations sent teams of reporters to Alaska when e-mails from her administration were released years after Palin’s term was over.  From questioning her child’s birth to moving in next door in Wasilla, the liberal mainstream gets frenzied at the mere mention of her name.

The First President Since Richard Nixon to Personally Launch Verbal Assaults on His Enemies

More of the liberal/socialist/progressive, or in this case just egotistical and hypocritical behavior of one Barry Obama.

Obama: Civility for Thee but Not for Me

Posted by admin on May 7, 2010 · Comments (20)

Floyd and Mary Beth Brown, Impeach Obama Campaign

Our Lecturer-in-Chief demands we do as he says, not as he does. During his University of Michigan commencement address, Barack Obama assumed the professorial role and began lecturing Americans on how to behave: “Now, the second way to keep our democracy healthy is to maintain a basic level of civility in our public debate. … But we can’t expect to solve our problems if all we do is tear each other down. You can disagree with a certain policy without demonizing the person who espouses it.”

While the idea of a civil debate is certainly appealing, Barack Obama has done more to damage civility in public discourse than any presidency in 40 years. Obama is the first president since Richard Nixon to personally launch verbal assaults on his enemies. His administration is willing to attack anyone who dares to stand up against them. They employ the shockingly un-presidential strategy of going after their critics by name. Robert Gibbs, the president’s acid tongue spokesman, attacked CNBC reporter Rick Santelli after less than a month in office.

Obama then joins Gibbs by personally lashing out at critics. Obama is even willing to go after his allies that don’t fall in line. “Don’t think we’re not keeping score, brother,” Obama famously told Rep. Peter DeFazio, a Democrat from Oregon.

Obama has issued scores of scathing personal attacks. He attacked Mitch McConnell as being in bed with Wall Street. He claimed John Boehner was a healthcare Chicken Little. He said Sarah Palin is “not exactly an expert on nuclear issues,” and called Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh a “troublesome” twosome spreading “vitriol.”

Obama’s comedy also has a political bite to it. Rather than employing the strategy of most recent presidents of engaging in self-deprecating humor, Obama makes fun of others. He tells jokes mocking Sarah Palin, Scott Brown, John Boehner, Charlie Crist and Mitt Romney.

Landon Parvin, an author and speechwriter for Democrats and Republicans, and a joke writer for three Republican presidents (Reagan and both Bushes) says, “With these dinners you want the audience to like you more when you sit down than when you stood up. … Something in [Obama’s] humor didn’t do that.”

Even Nancy Pelosi has told Obama to cool his critiques of Washington, D.C. Pelosi and other Democrats in the House are concerned that he is throwing them under the bus to save his own reputation. Obama is more concerned about preserving his own image and re-election prospects than he is about supporting his party in 2010.

Even Obama’s most reliable allies, the formerly dominant mainstream media, are beginning to take notice. Josh Gerstein and Patrick Gavin of Politico report: “Reporters say the White House is thin-skinned, controlling, eager to go over their heads and stingy with even basic information.” When the friendly press takes notice, there must really be a big problem.

It’s easy for the president to lecture about the lack of civility in politics, but when his administration is one of the most vicious voices in modern history those lectures are hypocritical. If Obama really wants to raise the public discourse he ought to start the cleaning in his own White House.


Big Easy Beatdown: Obama Zombies Beat Couple Because They Were Wearing ‘Palin’ Pins

This is what you will NEVER see in the major media outlets because it doesn’t fit their Alinsky template of defame and destroy. I haven’t even seen this on Fox yet, but maybe I missed it.

You will not see Tea Party people doing this type of thing, carrying the kinds of crude signs you see in the video, or using the language these people use. Many of the leftist web sites have stated that they intend to plant people at Tea Party rallies to make it look like the Tea Party folks are the trouble makers. Enough of America is awake and on to Obama and the progressives plan that we know this isn’t true.

Watch the YouTube video at the end and tell me if you HONESTLY think you would see this kind of nonsense at a Tea Party rally. The cops in all the cities where Tea Parties have been held love the Tea Parties because no one causes trouble, and they pick up their trash when they leave, usually leaving the place cleaner than what they found it. Think the anarchists protesting a WTO rally, or the liberals protesting anything would be this civil? Not on your life.

Big Easy Beatdown… GOP Official and Boyfriend Savagely Beaten Leaving SRLC Dinner

by Jim Hoft

On Friday night Allee Bautsch, chief campaign fundraiser for Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, and her boyfriend Joe Brown, were savagely beaten in New Orleans after leaving a Republican party fundraising dinner. This report was put together on what we know so far on this horrible attack on two young Republicans.

Allee Bautsch and her boyfriend Joe Brown

The governor’s office said Monday that Allee Bautsch suffered a broken leg and her boyfriend suffered a concussion and fractured nose and jaw in the alleged incident. (KSLA)

A Republican activist and her boyfriend were savagely beaten in New Orleans on Friday after leaving the SRLC dinner. It was originally reported that they were attacked because they were wearing Sarah Palin pins..

Free Republic reported:

Allee Bautsch, chief campaign fundraiser for Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, and her boyfriend Joe Brown, were savagely beaten Friday night in New Orleans after leaving a Republican party fundraising dinner by a group of thugs who reportedly targeted the couple because they were wearing Sarah Palin pins.

Bautch’s leg was broken and Brown incurred a broken jaw and nose as well as a concussion.

The Hayride reports that a source who visited Bautsch at the hospital the day after the attack says they were told the couple was attacked for wearing Palin buttons:

Two people at the Brennan’s event have now confirmed that the protest had largely broken up by the time it ended, but we also understand from someone who visited Allee Bautsch in the hospital Saturday morning that she and Brown were followed and attacked expressly because they had Palin pins on (she heard one of the attackers say “Let’s get them, they have Palin pins on” – so the attack WAS politically motivated as its victims understood it. It was not a mugging, it was not an argument gone wrong and it was not a bar fight.

The story of a Republican and her boyfriend being viciously attacked for wearing Palin buttons has yet to make national headlines, unlike say, unfounded rumors of nasty words being said by Tea Party protesters.

Related… Anarchists took to the streets in New Orleans on Friday to protest the SRLC, marching to the Hilton Hotel, where a banner was hanging from the roof which said “We won’t pay for their crisis. Become the crisis!” —- The march then headed to Brennan’s Restaurant, where a $10,000 a plate SRLC dinner was in progress.

UPDATE: They are still investigating the violent attack–

Friday night, the Governor’s campaign fundraiser, Allee Bautsch, and her boyfriend were involved in an altercation in the French Quarter with a group of people.

While there were protestors around at that time, we are not aware of any evidence that the individuals involved in the altercation were protestors.

Allee’s leg was badly broken in the incident, she has had surgery, and she is facing a recovery time of two to three months. Her boyfriend had a concussion, and also a fractured nose and jaw. They are both expected to fully recover.

NOPD is investigating the incident and we are refraining from further comment to allow them to fully investigate and ensure justice is done. Our prayers are with Allee. She is a strong person and we are sure she will make a speedy recovery.

Thanks,

Kyle Plotkin

Press Secretary

And, here is another update on the protest that was sent to me today after I published this report:

I am the photographer for the LA GOP and I was at the Brennan fundraiser. When I left about one hour or so after all 3 of the governors left the crowd of protesters had grown. The were very nasty, signs were vulgar using the “F” word. As I left the restaurant I was yelled at – there was a family visiting the restaurant with a baby stroller – they had nothing to do with the fundraiser and they were being heckled using the “F” and “MF” words.. A couple of them made comments to me.
Thanks, Eric

UPDATE: Here is a photo of the crowd outside of Brennan’s that was sent to me later today–

Chavez Builds Model for Obama’s Brown Shirts

Obama said during his July 2, 2008 campaign speech

“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”

He has attempted to follow the model of Hugo Chavez, and other dictators thus far in his illegitimate, undocumented ‘presidency.’  He has taken over financial institutions, auto manufacturers, and begun the destruction of all private business and industry.  With the aid of Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, the Black Panthers, SEIU, ACORN, all of his communist appointees, and other union supporters, Obama has employed his thug, street organizer, Marxist, Saul Alinsky tactics to intimidate Americans and begin building the framework for his communist state.

What you see exemplified by Hugo Chavez, and quietly being put into place by Barack Obama is EXACTLY like the Nazi Brown Shirts who did Hitler’s bidding in the 30’s and 40’s, and what Lenin did in Soviet Russia.  “Oh, but you’re being too extreme and alarmist by using the Hitler analogy,” some of you will say.  If you HONESTLY examine history, there is no way that you can tell me the analogy does not fit.

Chavez is using his ‘militia’ to intimidate people into doing things his way.  Period.  It has nothing to do with the good of the people.  It is about consolidating power.

Now Chairman Maobama is quietly trying to assemble such a force.  The basis for the force is the corrupt unions that got him elected, predominantly the likes of ACORN and SEIU.  The leadership of other unions such as the UAW are also in bed with Obama, but the rank and file may not be so easily swayed.  Regardless, you have already seen his tactics employed at the voting booth intimidating voters to get him elected by either voting for him, or not voting period.  You see a ‘progressive’ congress attempting to pass laws that would essentially force unionization of the labor force.  You see attempts to publicly attack and humiliate ANYONE who disagrees with Obama’s agenda.

The words of soulless attack dog Rahm Emanuel are a perfect example.  He called those balking at Obama’s health care takeover “F—ing retarded.” This is a pretty mild attack from Mr. ‘Dead Fish’ Emanuel, who mailed dead fish to a pollster who ticked him off.  As an aide to Bill Clinton during his first presidential run, Emanuel shook up a dinner party by plunging a knife into the table and screaming “Dead!” while reciting the names of several Democrats he considered disloyal.  If Obama has a ‘Heinrich Himmler,’ Emanuel will be it.

Chavez’s Socialist Worker Militias Swell to 150,000 in Venezuela

Friday, February 05, 2010

By Matt Cover, Staff Writer

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez (AP Photo)

(CNSNews.com) – Venezuela’s socialist worker militias have grown to nearly 150,000 members since their formation in 2009. Organized by President Hugo Chavez in May 2009, the “workers’ militias” are intended to allow Chavez’s political party to assert control over key economic sectors.

According to a Jan. 29 report in the Venezuelan El Universal newspaper — translated by BBC Worldwide Monitoring – the ranks of Chavez’s workers militias have swelled to around 150,000 members, most of whom work in “strategic” economic sectors, such as oil, electricity, transportation, and “basic companies.”

Orlando Castillo, with the Socialist Workers Front, a Chavez-allied group, was quoted by El Universal as saying that the purpose of the militias was to use the labor troops to “defend the people,” adding that “there need to be many more” troops.  (Obama’s ‘civilian national security force’ anyone?)

“There need to be many more,” he said, “because they represent the idea of the integrated worker who is capable of producing and also of defending the people.”

The workers’ militias are an ideological remnant of the Communist coup d’etat in Russia 1917, whose leaders Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky created the groups and used them to overthrow the Czarist government, eventually turning them into units of the Red Army.

Vladimir Lenin, the Marxist leader who helped establish the Soviet Union, which lasted in Russia from 1917 to 1991

In Venezuela today the militias are made up of individual workers who are armed with guns and trained to ensure that their respective companies comply with the agenda of the ruling United Socialist Party. (As I said, it’s all about CONTROL.)

“With rifles there beside them, in case anybody makes a mistake with us,” Chavez is quoted as saying at a May 2009 socialist transformation workshop where he announced the militias’ creation.

So-called socialist patrols are also growing, with an estimated 20,000 separate patrols totaling 300,000 Venezuelans. Each patrol has an average of 15 members. Castillo said the patrols are “forging the party [United Socialist Party] in the middle of the workers [movement].”

Like the militias, these socialist patrols are intended to allow the ruling socialist government to exert greater control over key industries. However, they also operate in Venezuela’s shrinking private sector companies.

The purpose of both is “production control,” according to socialist leader Castillo, allowing members of the ruling party to wield greater influence in economic decisions.

Chavez’s government plans for companies to have a socialist triumvirate of sorts, comprised of socialist patrols, workers’ councils and labor unions. (Do you think Obama’s total support and nurturing of unions in this country is an accident?  Don’t be naive.  It is part of his plan in laying the ground work for his communist state.)


1930’s Brownshirt Tactics Coming Back into Vogue

I don’t think you’ll find a better, more clear example of how the left and the progressives operate.  Straight up communist doctrine and right out of Saul Alinsky’s playbook.  Intimidate into silence.  At first in this country it was done slowly by sneaking in small, unconstitutional laws that most people were to complacent to resist.  The first “big stick” used against the church in this country was MONEY.  LBJ had a law passed making it illegal for preachers to speak out for or against political candidates because he didn’t like that fact that they usually spoke out against HIM.  The IRS were his “Brown Shirts.”  They would revoke the tax exempt status of a church found in violation of this law.  Sadly, far too many churches and preachers let themselves and the Gospel be pacified by this intimidation, which has resulted in a much more timid church and body of Christians overall in America.  Now that most have been pacified over time, the left is stepping up its campaign to silence the church completely.  They are boldly employing thug tactics that have never before been seen in America, and haven’t been seen in a western country since 1930’s Germany.

If Christians, and Americans in general don’t stand up for EVERYONE’S right to free speech, then it will soon be gone.

Mall to Christians: God talk banned!

Rules challenged as violating ‘principles of free expression’

Posted: January 30, 2010

12:10 am Eastern

By Bob Unruh

WorldNetDaily

Arguments have moved to the appellate court level in a California case in which a man talking to two willing strangers in a shopping mall was arrested because the subject of the conversation was God.

The case developed several years ago when a youth pastor was arrested at the Galleria Mall in Roseville, Calif., for having a conversation about religion with two other people.

Matthew Snatchko, who works with youth at his church, was interrupted in the middle of a conversation by a security guard. A second guard joined the confrontation and told Snatchko he was being placed under citizen’s arrest for “trespassing.” (Phony charges to silence and intimidate since they knew they couldn’t arrest him for what he was doing.)

The pastor said he agreed to leave but instead, the guards grabbed him, roughly shoved him against a storefront window and handcuffed him tightly enough to draw blood. Snatchko later was taken to the police station where he was booked on charges of battery and trespassing.

A short time later the charges were dropped, but officials with the Pacific Justice Institute decided to pursue a case against the mall over the impact of the policy on free speech.  (Again, they were sending a warning.  “Don’t speak about any of that God stuff, or next time we won’t go so easy on you.”  These are the intimidation tactics of the left.  Look at Hitler’s National Socialist Party and his Brown Shirts, Stalin’s purges, and Mao’s tyrannical reign.)

After a Placer County Superior Court judge in 2008 affirmed the mall’s regulations, an appeal was launched to the 3rd Appellate District in Sacramento, and the briefs have just now been completed for that court’s review.

“It’s surprising that mall owners think they can arrest patrons for engaging in casual conservations,” said PJI Staff Attorney Matthew McReynolds. “While a ‘don’t talk to strangers’ rule may be good for kids, enforcing it against adults is absurd, and we think it violates California’s free speech guarantees.”

The case is being pursued under the state’s constitutional provision for free speech, which extends protections to private locations, because the 1st Amendment to the Constitution deals directly with government restrictions.

McReynolds said had the case been argued in federal court, it would have had to focus on the discriminatory nature of the mall’s restrictions.

“Singling out religious speech for punishment violates our most basic principles of free expression,” said PJI President Brad Dacus. “If anyone can be arrested for wearing a Christian T-shirt or mentioning God in a shopping mall, we have lost not only our freedom, but our sanity as a society.”

The TRUE Character of Liberals Revealed

For a liberal:

  • Free speech is only free if it agrees with them.  Otherwise it is “hate speech” and must be silenced.
  • The ends justify the means as long as you get what you want. (i.e. cheating is OK if liberals do it).
  • Use morals, values, and rules against conservatives since they don’t matter to liberals.
  • Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. It’s hard to counterattack ridicule, and it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage.
  • The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. Avoid being trapped by an opponent or an interviewer who says, “Okay, what would you do?”
  • Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, polarize it. Don’t try to attack abstract corporations or bureaucracies. Identify a responsible individual. Ignore attempts to shift or spread the blame.

Sorry.  I couldn’t help the transition to Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals.  It is, after all, an integral part of the liberal playbook.

ELECTION 2010

MSNBC talk host: ‘Cheat to keep these bastards out’

On Senate race: ‘If I lived in Mass., I’d vote 10 times’

Posted: January 17, 2010

MSNBC television and syndicated radio host Ed Schultz declared that he would stuff the ballot box in Massachusetts if he could to prevent Republican Scott Brown from upsetting Democrat Martha Coakley in the race to fill the state’s Senate seat formerly held by Edward M. Kennedy.

Whatever it takes to keep “the bastards” out of power.

“I tell you what, if I lived in Massachusetts I’d try to vote 10 times,” said Schultz on his Friday radio show. “I don’t know if they’d let me or not, but I’d try to. Yeah, that’s right. I’d cheat to keep these bastards out. I would. ‘Cause that’s exactly what they are.”

Audio of Schultz’s statement can be heard below:

Schultz’s statement was broadcast on “The Ed Schultz Show,” which is aired weekdays, 12-3 p.m, as well as on satellite radio. His show’s website boasts Schultz is “the most listened-to progressive radio talk show host in America” and “the first progressive talker to hit 100 affiliates, both satellite networks and the Armed Forces Radio Network.”

His comments about cheating to turn the tide of an election, however, have already sparked heavy criticism.

Talk radio commentator Brian Maloney of The Radio Equalizer scoffed at Schultz’s statement by rephrasing it: “Who needs democracy when it leads to outcomes one might not like?”

Noel Sheppard of Newsbusters.com quipped, “Who says there’s liberal bias in the media?”

Sheppard also points out that Schultz’s comments came on the same day fellow MSNBC host Chris Matthews lamented that Democrat operatives couldn’t “buy” enough votes in Massachusetts to ensure Coakley’s victory:

“You know, in the old days – maybe I shouldn’t be harkening back to the old days – if the Democrats faced this kind of a disaster in the works, you’d go back to your ones, the people you were sure are going to vote Democrat, and you’d make sure they got to the polling place, you’d get them lunch, you’d get them a car,” Matthews said. “You’d make sure they got there, and in some cases you’d be buying people to get them, not officially buying them, but getting them there as block secretaries, as block captains, you’d be getting them there with street money – legitimate, but it’s a little bit old school.”

Commented Sheppard, “The good folks at General Electric and NBC must be thrilled to know that two of their on-air personalities are so biased in their political views that they publicly advocate cheating for their party to be victorious.”

WND contacted “The Ed Schultz Show” for clarification or comment on the host’s statement, but has yet to receive a reply.


Texan Teachers Being Brainwashed to Brainwash

This is brainwashing.  Plain and simple.  Is this the crap you want taught to your children?  This is EXACTLY why my kids will not darken the door of a public school as long as I can afford a decent REAL education for them.  The day I can’t afford the school they are in is the day I start home schooling.

Texas teachers warned against being ‘heterosexist’

‘We must help people to become committed to social change’

Candidates for certification to teach in public schools in Texas are being told that they will be held accountable for any “heterosexist” leanings and must become agents working to change society, according to one candidate who was alarmed by the demands.

The applicant, who requested anonymity for fear of repercussions, told WND part of the teachings on multiculturalism required him to read several online postings about the issue inside the education industry.

One warns that “teachers and administrators must be held accountable for practices deemed to be racist, sexist, heterosexist, classist, or in any other way discriminatory.” And a second warned that educators must not define education as the basic skills. (WTF?!?! Reading, writing, and ‘rithmetic.  When we had these three skills mastered, and they were the cornerstone of our education, we lead the world in EVERY arena.  Now, as we destroy the moral fabric of our nation and corrupt our education system, we lead the world in nothing but consumption and confusion.)

“How do we create a better world? How do we do more than simply survive? As educators, we must help people to become committed to social change,” the article demanded.  (“Social change” happens when educated and RESPONSIBLE people see that something isn’t working and try to improve it.  It does not come from a minority forcing their view on the rest of a nation and by brainwashing the children to accept a minority view.)

The teacher candidate told WND the studies were mandated by the Region 10 service center for the public school educators’ program.

The center had a recording that it was closed throughout the holidays and officials could not be reached by WND.

But spokeswoman Debbie Ratcliffe at the Texas Education Agency said the state rules require teacher preparation programs to cover 17 curriculum topics, but not multiculturalism. (Right.  And Barney Frank didn’t recognize what his gay lover was growing in his living room was marijuana.)

“Although the training should address educating special populations such as English language learners and children with disabilities,” she added.

“While we establish the broad rules that are to be followed, we do not write or approve a training program’s curriculum,” she said.

She said the articles, if part of the program, were chosen at the region level.

One of the articles was on the EdChange Multicultural Pavilion and discussed defining “multicultural education.”

There it states that there are several focuses for such programs, including those that insist “on education change as part of a larger societal transformation in which we more closely explore and criticize the oppressive foundations of society and how education serves to maintain the status quo – foundations such as white supremacy, capitalism, global socioeconomic situations, and exploitation.” (This is right out of the communist manual.  Demonize the engine of economic success, break down the educational and moral fiber of the nation, and build a framework for centralized control.)

The article demands, “Schools must be active participants in ending oppression of all types, first by ending oppression within their own walls, then by producing socially and critically active and aware students.”  (The REAL oppression is being generated by liberals, and by the very tyrants they hero worship.  Liberals kiss the a$$ets of people like Hugo Chavez and Mymood I’m-in-a-jihad while calling true liberators and heroes Nazis and oppressors.  Up is down, and black is white.)

“The underlying goal of multicultural education is to affect social change. The pathway toward this goal incorporates three strands of transformation: 1. The transformation of self; 2. The transformation of schools and schooling; and 3. The transformation of society,” the teaching material said.  (At least they’re honest about one part.  Multiculturalism is designed to “change” a society.  Rather than immigrants and those of different races ASSIMILATING into a homogenous society, multiculturalism seeks to fracture a society by pitting each of its component parts against one another.  Under multiculturalism, we are no longer Americans who just happen to be black, asian, white, Hispanic, etc.  Under multiculturalism we are divided into African-Americans, Mexican-Americans, Chinese-Americans, etc.  We are hyphenated.  Hyphenation in this context is destroying America because we are being divided so we can be conqured.)

The traditional teaching approaches, it continued, “must be deconstructed to examine how they are contributing to and supporting institutional systems of oppression.”  (Oppression?  Forcing me or my children to accept a view that we do not believe in is oppression.  This should remind everyone of the Soviet “re-education” camps.)

It demands that the “transformation of society” be part of a school’s goals.

“It is not enough to continue working within an ailing, oppressive, and outdated system to make changes, when the problems in education are themselves symptoms of a system that continues to be controlled by the economic elite.”  (Who controls the economic system in America?  It is controlled by LIBERALS!  All the rejects from the 60’s and many of their progeny are the administrators, professors, and teachers in our schools and universities now.  They have infiltrated these former institutions of higher learning to the point that traditional conservative thought or speech is overtly frowned upon, and covertly forbidden.  This is Saul Alinsky, communist strategy in action.  Control the youth, control their minds, and you control their future.)

A second article that was assigned to the student, the candidate told WND, was “Multicultural Education and Developmental Education: A Conversation About Principles and Connections with James A. Banks,” and included the same concepts of change.

“In the Pedagogy of the Oppressed [the author] says that we must teach students to read the word, which is basic skills, but we also must teach them to read the world, and that is to critique and change society,” the article said.

“One of the things that is happening in this assessment mania that is going on is that we’ve defined education too narrowly. We’ve defined it as only basic skills: reading, writing, and arithmetic. We’re missing that the biggest problem of humankind is not basic skills but how to get along. How do we create a better world? How do we do more than simply survive? As educators, we must help people to become committed to social change,” it stated.  (This is the difference between conservatism and liberalism.  Conservatives teach their children HOW to think.  Liberals teach their children WHAT to think.)

The article also warned instructors must lead their students in a specific social direction.  (Again, teaching what to think instead of how to think.  I believe that’s the basic definition of INDOCTRINATION.)

“I think it is essential that students acquire basic skills and I don’t think they’re neutral. The skills are as value laden as the commitments we want students to share. Although it’s essential that students acquire basic skills, this alone is clearly not sufficient for them to become effective citizens in a global society. They must also develop the commitment and ability to critique and change society,” the article said.

A similar issue of demanding a specific social perspective arose recently at the University of Minnesota.

Officials at the school there backed off a proposal after publicity about its planned requirements to examine teacher candidates about “white privilege” as well as provide “remedial re-education” for those who hold the “wrong” views.  (Oh, dear Lord!  Can’t everyone see clearly that this is a blatant cut-and-paste from the old Soviet Union?)

That case was taken up by the the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, which promotes civil liberties on the campuses of America’s colleges and universities.

FIRE officer Adam Kissel said the report from the Race, Culture, Class, and Gender Task Group apparently would involve screening teacher applicants for “wrong” views and withholding their degrees if “the university’s political re-education efforts proved ineffective.”  (This should TERRIFY you!  These are the socialist/progressive/communists who are INDOCTRINATING your children!)

By any “nontotalitarian” standards, he wrote, the plans being made so far by the school are “severely unjust and impermissibly intrude into matters of individual conscience.”

In Minnesota, among the issues discussed in the plans, are requirements that teachers would be able to instruct students on the “myth of meritocracy” in the United States, “the history of demands for assimilation to white, middle-class, Christian meanings and values,” and the “history of white racism.”  (What is the “myth” of meritocracy?  This is the belief that your standing, promotion, etc. should have nothing to do with your ability.  The Soviets did away with meritocracy, and they wound up with a system of division by class, and nepotism.  Rather than putting the competent people in charge, the privileged people of the “party” were in charge, resulting in incompetent leadership which ultimately led to the downfall of the Soviet Union.  This is where these communists are trying to lead us.  Assimilation provides a national identity.  Without it, you have a fractured society that can’t stand against outside forces, or progress beyond separatist bickering, group identity, and self interest.  Christian meanings and values were what this nation was founded on.  They were and have been proven to work.  History of white racism?  That has been supplanted by the history of liberal racism.  Liberals divide us into groups that they can pit against one another.  They keep groups down so they can have people to exploit.  They give them just enough handouts for them to believe the lie that “liberals are for the little people.”  Then they tell them the reason they are still “oppressed” is because white conservatives want it that way.  Liberals give these groups just enough rope to keep from drowning, but never enough to climb out of the water.  Liberals have to keep these groups dependant on them, or they lose power.)

Those demands appeared to be similar to those promoted earlier at the University of Delaware.

As WND reported, the Delaware university’s office of residential life was caught requiring students to participate in a program that taught “all whites are racist.”

School officials immediately defended the teaching, but in the face of a backlash from alumni and publicity about its work, the school decided to drop the curriculum, although some factions later suggested its revival.

FIRE, which challenged the Delaware plan, later produced a video explaining how the institution of the university pushed for the teachings, was caught and later backed off:

Delaware School Brainwashing

Minneapolis Star-Tribune columnist Katherine Kersten said the Minnesota plan would have required teachers to “embrace – and be prepared to teach our state’s kids – the task force’s own vision of America as an oppressive hellhole: racist, sexist and homophobic.”

She wrote, “The first step toward ‘cultural competence,’ says the task group, is for future teachers to recognize – and confess – their own bigotry. Anyone familiar with the re-education camps of China’s Cultural Revolution will recognize the modus operandi.  (Cultural competence?  What kind of Orwellian big-brother brainwashing crap is that?  How to think vs. what to think.)

“What if some aspiring teachers resist this effort at thought control and object to parroting back an ideological line as a condition of future employment?” she posed. “The task group has Orwellian plans for such rebels: The U, it says, must ‘develop clear steps and procedures for working with nonperforming students, including a remediation plan.'”
