Chauvin Did Not Murder George Floyd - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics

Chauvin Did Not Murder George Floyd - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics - by JACK CASHILL

• And prosecutors knew it.

Thanks to the release of depositions in a sexual harassment law suit, we now know just how thoroughly corrupt was the prosecution of former Minneapolis police offer Derek Chauvin and his three colleagues in the May 2020 death of George Floyd...

• “Did, in fact, a racist white cop actually murder a man named George Floyd, a civil rights leader in Minneapolis, on Memorial Day 2020,” asked Tucker Carlson in Episode 32 of his Xwitter podcast on Friday. After documenting just some of the consequences of the presumed murder, from decriminalizing theft to defunding the police, Carlson added, “The answer is, well, no. He didn’t murder George Floyd.”
• His findings … “did exonerate the police officers — there was no evidence of asphyxiation or strangulation.”..
• “I called Dr. Baker early that morning to tell him about the case and to ask him if he would perform the autopsy on Mr. Floyd,” said Sweasy under oath. “He called me later in the day on that Tuesday and he told me that there were no medical findings that showed any injury to the vital structures of Mr. Floyd’s neck. There were no medical indications of asphyxia or strangulation,” Sweasy added...

What Hamas Wants - The Lid

What Hamas Wants - The Lid - by Jeff DunetzThe New York Post reported on Sunday that Israel hasn’t begun the invasion of Gaza because President Biden wants them to hold any incursion into Gaza because he believes that he can negotiate the release of the 200 hostages held by Hamas...
Biden’s response is precisely what the terrorists want: He treats them as equals as a negotiation partner. 

It delays Israel’s incursion into Gaza to eliminate Hama terrorists...

• Why can’t world leaders understand that Hamas wants to drive Israel into the sea” and kill all the Jews? 

Don’t believe me, believe Hamas; below are excerpts of the Hamas charter.

“Israel will exist and continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it.” (Hamas Charter, Introduction)

Our struggle against the Jews is very great and very serious.” (Hamas Charter, Introduction)

Hamas “strives to raise the banner of Allah over every inch of Palestine.” (Hamas Charter, Article 6)

“The Day of Judgement will not come about until Muslims fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind the stones and trees. The stones and trees will say, ‘O Muslims, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him’.” (Hamas Charter, Article 7)

“Nationalism, from the point of view of the Islamic Resistance Movement [Hamas], is part of the religious creed. Nothing in nationalism is more significant or deeper than in the case when an enemy should tread Muslim land. Resisting and quelling the enemy become the individual duty of every Muslim.” (Hamas Charter, Article 12)

“Initiatives, and so-called peaceful solutions and international conferences are in contradiction to the principles of the Islamic Resistance Movement […] There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through Jihad.” (Hamas Charter, Article 13)...

That’s just a taste of Hamas hatred. 

But world leaders ignore those words like they ignored Mein Kampf 90 years ago...

As War Drums Pound, Study Finds Two-Thirds of Active Duty US Military Are Overweight or Obese - The Political Insider - KATHLEEN J. ANDERSON
"...With the President declaring a new old axis of evil in his last Oval Office address, those who lived through the Gulf War and the previous forever war feel a sense of deja vu.

But this is no longer 1991. Or even 2003. 

The question now is, are Americans physically ready to fight the next great World War?...

Woke judges!-----Here's Where Hundreds of Suspected Violent Criminals Have Been Released Thanks to Woke Judges

Here's Where Hundreds of Suspected Violent Criminals Have Been Released Thanks to Woke Judges -Madeline Leesman
"Hundreds of people in Spokane County, Washington, who were accused of violent crimes have been released from jail without posting bail, a new report shows.
According to the The Spokesman-Review, records show that people accused of violent crimes, including rape, molesting children, making death threats, vehicular homicide and assaults were set free “on their promise to behave and show up to court when summoned.”
Reportedly, this has occurred 665 times in the county from Jan. 1, 2021, to Set. 30. 

Some of those released from jail allegedly committed violent crimes after (The Spokesman-Review):

• Nathan Nash, the ex-Spokane police officer who raped two women after using his
  
  badge to gain their trust, spent years awaiting trial not from the confines of a jail cell, but in his own home. He did not have to post bail.
• Jordan Knippling walked out of the Spokane County Jail without a judge setting bail after he was accused of punching a nurse at MultiCare Valley Hospital and throwing medical equipment. A year later, while out of jail on his own recognizance, prosecutors allege he killed a man at a homeless camp...

GROUNDBREAKING:

Instapundit-GROUNDBREAKING: 

"Glamour’s ‘Women of the Year’ Are All Women.

What happened: A women’s fashion magazine, Glamour, honored its “Women of the Year” award winners at a swanky gala in London last week.

• All of the winners were actually women.
• The magazine’s “Women of the Year” honorees included female actress Millie Bobby Brown, female actress America Ferrera, female singer Leigh-Anne Pinnock, female actress Ariana DeBose...

Why it matters: It’s a courageous (and potentially problematic) departure from contemporary social trends. In recent years, most “women of the year” lists were considered—by the people who care about such things—to be insufficiently “inclusive” if no transgender individuals were represented.

Detroit Police on Samantha Woll Murder: 'Nothing To See Here, Folks. Move Along. - Grateful Calvin
"Detroit synagogue president Samantha Woll was murdered in front of her home over the weekend. Woll was very active in social justice issues, but most specifically worked very hard on improving Jewish-Muslim relations. 

From the moment it became public, the media has been downplaying her murder, using phrases in their headlines like 'found dead,' as opposed to, say, 'stabbed to death.'
A suspect has not been arrested in the crime yet, but that didn't seem to stop the Detroit Police from reaching certain conclusions in their investigation.

Excuse us, but how do you make such a statement when you haven't even made an arrest?...

Recognize the bullies!

Guess Where Hamas Is Launching Rockets From Into Israel - Spencer Brown
"New documentation released by the Israel Defense Forces shows more of the barbarism practiced by Hamas terrorists inside the Gaza Strip. 

In addition to targeting civilian targets indiscriminately across Israel with their rockets, Hamas has continued to launch their attacks from locations intended to endanger civilians in Gaza, including United Nations buildings, mosques, and schools.

Horowitz: DeSantis is right: The overwhelming majority of Gaza Arabs have toxic beliefs - TheBlaze: 

How is it “tolerant” to import so many people who hate Jews that now Jewish students are afraid to show up for class?

In many respects, mass migration from the Middle East is the point of no return in the destruction of Western civilization. Unchecked political correctness now threatens our whole system of values and our very survival. It’s not like we didn’t have years of fair warning.
