If No Indictments Prior to the Election, What Is Durham’s End Game?

If President Trump wins a second term, the delays by Durham will be forgotten before the champagne goes flat.

The question really is “What is the end game if Biden wins?”

My guess is that Durham will have one or more indictments returned in December or early January, ahead of the inauguration. I think Attorney General Barr will then accept Durham’s resignation as US Attorney and name Durham as a “Special Counsel” under DOJ Regulations in simultaneous actions. He might do the same thing with US Attorney Jensen in Missouri who seems to be investigating the actual cases brought by the Special Counsel’s Office.

Portland Rioters Destroy Statues of Racist Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt In “Day of Rage”

The group then turned to the nearby Abraham Lincoln statue, pulling it to the ground at 8:59 p.m. Spray-painted on the base of the statue was “Dakota 38,” a reference to 38 Dakota men executed after the Dakota-U.S. War of 1862 in the largest mass execution in a single day in American history. (Lincoln commuted the same sentence, handed down by a military tribunal, for 265 others.) //

The rioters continued down Southwest Fifth Avenue where they smashed storefront windows for seven blocks, punishing all those people who checks notes exist.

More Ballot Shenanigans: German Non-Citizen Receives Multiple Ballots for Election

Stefan Niemann is a reporter for the Berlin-based ARD-Hauptstadstudio and based in Washington D.C, reporting on US politics.

“The chaos lamented by #Trump when it comes to delivery of #brief voting documents is there. – I’m not allowed to vote here. But 3 # ballot papers came to my #Washington address: PRE-tenant moved 5 years ago, landlord living in #PuertoRico and her deceased husband. # selection2020” //

VIDEO: First Time EVER, Florida Police Chiefs Announce Their Endorsement for President.

They say there is a first time for everything and in the case of the Florida Police Chiefs Association’s recent endorsement of President Donald Trump, that is 100% true. What this means is another lost opportunity for Joe Biden to finally get one Police Association endorsement before election day. //

Florida GOP
@FloridaGOP
.@realDonaldTrump received the endorsement from the Florida Police Chiefs Association, which is the @floridachiefs first presidential endorsement ever, because he has demonstrated unwavering support for the brave men and women who risk their life to keep our communities safe. //

That this is the first EVER endorsement of The Florida Police Chiefs Association has to give you a heads up something is happening with those first responders on the front lines.

They must really believe that Donald Trump is better than Joe Biden for the country they serve and that should tell you all you need to know about the two main candidates on this year’s ballot.

Double Standards and Cancel Culture at the US Naval Academy: Football Team Edition

At Saturday’s Temple game, the team was not on the field for the playing of the national anthem (the rest of the Brigade was in the stands). When they did come out afterward, the team knelt before an American flag before getting ready for the kickoff. It might be standard operating practice for footballers at civilian schools to execute the “Kaepernick Kneel” while dissing the flag as the virtue-signaling price of entry into the NFL these days, but the Navy football team, all of whom are ostensibly in training to serve their country as naval officers? In my opinion, that’s a REAL “honor violation” that should result in separation. And it turns out that the team hasn’t been on the field for the national anthem for any of the prior three games, either.

My EXCLUSIVE Radio Interview With Sen. Ted Cruz On His New Book: “One Vote Away: How a Single Supreme Court Seat Can Change History”

The Senator revealed to us that he wrote his book “on his couch” in March after his self imposed COVID 19 quarantine. Never did he imagine just six months later the relevance of this book after the recent passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Did you know these important cases were decided by a 5-4 vote?

  1. Religious Liberty and Van Orden v. Perry
  2. School Choice and Zelman v. Simmons-Harris
  3. Gun Rights and District of Columbia v. Heller
  4. Sovereignty and Medellín v. Texas
  5. Abortion and Gonzales v. Carhart
  6. Free Speech and Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission
  7. Crime, Law and Order, Capital Punishment, and Kennedy v. Louisiana

In our interview, we touched on these cases and discussed the Democrats’ plans of “packing the Supreme Court” and adding Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia as states to solidify their power for years.

The Democrats are promising to contest next month’s election if they come up short. Failed 2016 nominee Hillary Clinton has declared that Biden should not concede if the election is close. The stakes have never been higher.

As Americans head to the polls, One Vote Away reminds voters that in casting their ballot this November, they are selecting the leader whose appointments could build a Court that preserves freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and the right to bear arms, or irrevocably changes the future of the nation for decades to come.

Now You Tell Us: World Health Organization Now Says Lockdowns Are Bad

Ahh, 2020 you magnificent $%^& *#$% don’t you ever change.

Well, after all the countries made a mad dash to close down their economies and threaten people to stay home or be harassed by the MAKS MOB, now comes word that the W.H.O. decides that maybe that wasn’t the best plan?

Ya think!?!?!?!?!

Right from the News of Australia down under…

The World Health Organisation has backflipped on its original COVID-19 stance after calling for world leaders to stop locking down their countries and economies.

Dr. David Nabarro from the WHO appealed to world leaders yesterday, telling them to stop “using lockdowns as your primary control method” of the coronavirus.

He also claimed that the only thing lockdowns achieved was poverty – with no mention of the potential lives saved.

“Lockdowns just have one consequence that you must never ever belittle, and that is making poor people an awful lot poorer,” he said.

“We in the World Health Organisation do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus,” Dr Nabarro told The Spectator.

“The only time we believe a lockdown is justified is to buy you time to reorganise, regroup, rebalance your resources, protect your health workers who are exhausted, but by and large, we’d rather not do it.”

Grounded airline planes turned into pop-up restaurants sell out in 30 minutes - The Verge

Amidst plunging revenues due to the pandemic, Singapore Airlines is turning two of its Airbus A380 planes parked at Changi Airport into impromptu restaurants on October 24th and 25th, and it’s proved surprisingly popular. Bloomberg reports that all seats at the restaurants sold out within 30 minutes of bookings opening, as people rushed to recapture the excitement of balancing a tiny meal on an even tinier fold-down airline table.

Watch: Bill Maher Beautifully Lights Up Adam Schiff About California Exodus

A 2015 study found that CA was DEAD LAST in manufacturing investment. Schiff wants to pretend like it isn’t the state’s progressive policies that drive people out but let’s review one outfits reasons why businesses are leaving.

Number 1 is taxes. Color me shocked. This goes without saying that progressive policies require high taxes. File this under DUH.

Number 2 is wages. California has a 15 dollar an hour minimum wage coming down the pike and many businesses are fleeing before that goes into effect. Progressive fights for higher minimum wages have plagued the state for years.

Number 3 is unions. And who do Unions support? Progressives. Next?

Number 4 is environmental regulations. And who put in all of the environmental regulations? Progressives.

Sorry there Schiff. Progressives killed this state. Progressive policies are definitely incompatible with business.

The Presidency, Forever Changed

Donald J. Trump has changed the presidency – forever.

ABC’s Jon Karl Blows Up One of Biden’s Most Important Claims, One That Affects Most Americans

ABC’s Jon Karl committed some journalism today and asked Biden campaign co-chair Rep. Cedric Richmond (D-LA), almost apologetically, but he still asked, doesn’t Biden’s plan obviously raise taxes on most Americans if you repeal the Trump tax cuts? Not just those making more than $400,000?

Richmond responds that’s our “goal” but “on day 1” you’ll see our plan. So why can’t we see it now? How do they intend to repeal the tax cuts yet not raise taxes? That’s just obvious nonsense. They’ll tell you. After you elect them. You have to elect them to see what they’ll do. Are they kidding with this?

They think they can get him in without having to be straight or go on record with anything.
