Corvette-gate: ‘They do everything they accuse Republicans of doing.’

With the Joe Biden classified documents scandal still in the news cycle, the projection phenomenon is becoming even more evident.

Fox News contributor Joey Jones claims that even his friend who enjoys “green cigarettes” has noticed the performative projection, a persistent tendency by Democrats that could also qualify as a double standard or a form of gaslighting. read more

Trump, Democrats, and Projection

President Donald Trump has a tendency to throw rhetorical fuel on the fire. When his riffing at a rally, or sending out a tweet storm, he often creates needless feuds. This kind of rhetoric can obscure a substantive message about his administration’s America First accomplishments. In this way, he tends to forget that when your opponents are digging a hole, let them keep digging. read more

Never Trumpers Look to 2020 for Salvation

With sometimes impulsive, inflammatory tweets that create needless feuds (and inevitable accusations of all the “isms”) plus the resulting negativity in media and political precincts, President Donald Trump often obscures the actual accomplishments of his administration so far and needlessly elevates several of his foes. read more

John McCain’s Hero Status Only Recently Discovered by the Media

Even if you disagreed with him on certain political issues, U.S. Senator John McCain was war hero and a great American. That’s why President Trump’s “joke” in July 2015 was so inappropriate (and would have doomed the campaign of anyone else).

That said, the Democrat/media cohort heaping praise on the late Arizona senator and Vietnam War POW who was a federal elected official for 35 years  is off-putting to say the least, given the way the echo chamber treated him when he had the temerity — or audacity, as it were — to run against Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election.

From PJ Media:

The media today now have pretty much only nice things to say about the late Sen. John McCain (who’s record of independence has aligned him with Obama and against the GOP on several issues, and even more importantly, against Trump), but this is in stark contrast to how they treated him when he was Barack Obama’s opponent in 2008. read more

Vanessa Berben on #WalkAway: ‘Somehow, Advocating for Freedom of Thought Has Become a Radical Notion’

In a heartfelt YouTube video that has gone viral, former Bernie Sanders supporter and lifelong Democrat Vanessa Berben explained why she decided to add her voice to the #WalkAway campaign.

This is a grassroots, rapidly-gaining-traction movement created by Brandon Straka, initially with his own viral video, that has created a social media community of disaffected liberals who have left the Democratic Party and its authoritarian, intolerant inclinations.

Originally launched on Facebook where you can find substantial content,  there are now also a sizable number of video testimonial/personal stories from ex-Democrats on the #WalkAway YouTube fan site.

Many people seem to forget that Donald Trump himself was a Democrat and independent before seeking the presidency as a first-time candidate on the Republican ticket in 2016.

On her website, civil discourse champion Vanessa Berben makes it clear that she is has not signed on with conservatives or Republicans, unlike many of her #WalkAway contemporaries who have officially made an ideological journey from left to right. But she shares their basic principles insofar as free speech is concerned.

“To vocalize any kind of dissenting opinion that doesn’t fall in lock/step with “the war for social justice’ gets us labeled a Nazi, bigot, or some other kind of racist— sometimes by our own families. So here’s my contribution to this movement. From one lifelong Democrat, here to say No More. I’m nowhere near Conservative, nowhere nar Republican, but I’m still breaking up with my party. No more rabid cognitive dissonance, no more exaltation of victimhood– I’ve chosen to #WalkAway.”

As she further explained on the video embedded below, ‘Somehow, advocating for freedom of thought has become a radical notion.”

Although Democrats and liberals here and in Europe, including blue-check Twitter, seem incapable of distinguishing between legal and illegal immigration moreover, Berben in her video presentation specifically rejected the premise that favoring legal entry into the U.S. and strong borders are in an any discriminatory.

“Being an American surpasses color, surpasses creed, it even surpasses country of origin—This is an amazing country, and I love being an American. And I love anyone who holds American ideals up so highly, that they would be willing to leave their home country to come here. I’m so for that; I’m so all about that…”
