“How shameful it is that this person cannot stand up on her own and she needs to have this crutch, or she needs to have a series of crutches, but yet she wants to be the commander in chief, she wants to be the president of the United States of America.

How to destroy a nation in five easy steps - The Conservative Woman
How to destroy a nation in five easy steps - The Conservative Woman - Dr Campbell Campbell-Jack
- Certain steps can be taken to undermine and ultimately to destroy the culture and the cohesive identity of a people.
- The United Kingdom today functions as a laboratory where we can witness them being played out in real time.
Here are some of them.
First, recognise that Britain is a Christian nation, and proceed to undermine that concept...
Second, ..Emphasise the wrongs that have been done by the British as though the UK is unique in having blots in its history.
Third, open the borders and actively encourage mass legal immigration. At the same time break election promises to stop illegal migration...
Fourth, ...Institute a de facto two-tier policing system.
Fifth, make acceptance of the new ideology an unstated but mandatory requirement for entry into the power-wielding caste...

The problem I have with Mark Zuckerberg claiming the Biden-Harris administration (or the FBI) pressuring him into censorship is this...
Facebook was censoring while Donald Trump was president. - John L Hoh Jr
- Zuckerberg wanted a certain outcome.
- Had it been a Republican administration pressuring him, you can bet he would have spoken out and likely gone to court to “protect” his First Amendment rights.
- I’m guessing he sees the writing on the wall that Kamala can’t win and wants to head off any ramifications for his actions.

Arlington incident shows media falling into same old Trump derangement syndrome
The coverage of the Arlington National Cemetery “controversy” shows the press using the same overwrought language, anonymous sources and liberal critics that they constantly return to, despite being proven wrong time and again. - By Post Editorial Board
You’d think after a decade of covering Donald Trump’s political career, the media would have learned some lessons.
You’d be wrong...
Take the Washington Post’s account, “How a Trump visit sparked turmoil at America’s most sacred cemetery.”
At issue: whether Trump’s team was allowed to take pictures in a certain part of the cemetery, and whether an employee was in the wrong to try to stop them.

At issue: whether Trump’s team was allowed to take pictures in a certain part of the cemetery, and whether an employee was in the wrong to try to stop them.
- In paragraph 20 — 20! — the father of a soldier who died in the Afghanistan bombing sparked by the Harris-Biden administration’s disastrous withdrawal says he welcomed Trump to the cemetery.
- “We invited him. He didn’t come to us,” said Darin Hoover, father of Staff Sgt.
