Holiday Caller to Biden:

Posted By Rod Kaufman

"A father, identified as Jared, called into the NORAD line and had a brief conversation with Biden. He was calling on behalf of his four children, according to CNN."
“Well, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas,” Biden told the man."
“Yeah, I hope you guys have a wonderful Christmas as well. Merry Christmas and let’s go Brandon,” the man said."

Remember when Republicans were concerned about family values? And respect for our institutions, like the presidency?
They say blue lives matter but attacked cops at the capitol doing their jobs. They say they're patriotic yet praise putin and during the capitol assault tried to steal computers and send them to Russia. They can't even make up their minds if covid is a Chinese bioweapon or a Dem hoax!

The 3 Hour Capitol Hill Tunnel Battle Yikes!

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Depending upon which state you live in, you may have a Trumptoid "patriot" showing up at your doorstep and demand to know if you casted a vote or not in the 2020 presidential election: So if you hear a knock on your door, it may be Larry, Mo, or Curley Joe, probably dressed in camo.  "Any effort to violate citizens' privacy or intimidate them by showing up at their doorstep demanding to know how they voted is a desperate attempt to further sow seeds of doubt about election results that were a secure and accurate reflection of the will of the voters," Benson spokeswoman Tracy Wimmer said."

Ali Express To Refuse To Serve Palestinians

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Ali Express, the China based version of ebay or amazon, has now decided not to serve Palestinians:

Yup, those poor, starving Palestinians won't be able to shop for designer clothes on Ali Express anymore. Better send more aid now! Maybe it should go to Afghanistan instead. Better yet, maybe the arab countries should send it there...

Exactly! Greg seems to read my posts and he responds to them often enough as does Rich so it would appear that he ought to be familiar with the right wing outrage over the fate of the "patriots"...

Rich pointed out that what occurred in DC was not nearly as bad.....and he is right. He also pointed out that all those on the left calling for heads to roll for Jan 6th are huge hypocrites since they were perfectly willing to ignore all the violence and destruction over the summer around the country.

As far as those who on Jan 6th that did riot, injure cops and destroy property, they should be charged, prosecuted and convicted for their crimes. JUST AS THE ONES RIOTING IN THOSE OTHER CITIES SHOULD HAVE BEEN..... I am certain Rich agrees with that as well. In fact I specifically recall him stating that.
Uh huh...

The left and especially outlets like CNN have no shame and they never will.

One thing I would add, that both Fake Rod and Jim fail to mention and/or even address is the fact that CNN just created a lie out of whole cloth when they stated over and over that the DC Police Officer Brian Sicknick was hit in the head with a fire extinguisher and that he died from that blow.

CNN just made it up.  They had no evidence and eventually had to retract that lie.  

His own mother confirmed that he was never hit in the head as CNN lied about.  The medical examiner Diaz concluded that Officer Sicknick died of multiple strokes.

Tragic as it was for him and other officers, the fact remains that he wasn't killed by any rioters that day.  
Oh Itchy Richie:
"Medical examiner Dr. Francisco J. Diaz indicated in his autopsy findings that the chemical sprayed at Sicknick didn’t kill him, though the riot itself is not blameless: “All that transpired played a role in his condition.”

"Two men have been arrested and charged for assaulting US Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died after responding on January 6 to hundreds of rioters who stormed the Capitol, the Justice Department announced Monday."
"Julian Elie Khater, 32, of Pennsylvania, and George Pierre Tanios, 39, of West Virginia, are alleged to have worked together to spray police, including Sicknick, with a toxic chemical spray during the Capitol riot. Khater called what was in the cannister "bear sh*t," according to court records, but the Justice Department on Monday said the spray is unknown."

Trump Appointed Judges Reject Comparos Between Jan 6th Capitol Assault & Portland Rioters

Posted By Rod Kaufman

"FBI Director Christopher Wray on Monday defended the bureau against right-wing claims that it is pursuing cases against people who participated in the January 6, 2021, insurrection more aggressively than it is for rioters who attacked private and public buildings during racial justice protests in 2020."
"Wray, noting that the FBI has opened hundreds of investigations in connection to both the US Capitol attack and the riots that were sparked by the murder of George Floyd at the hands of police in 2020, said that "there are some differences, though," in how the bureau has been able to investigate the events..
"In the January 6 instance, it happened in broad daylight and it's been photographed extensively, people's faces eminently visible, and involved a fairly unmistakable breach and entry into the Congress while they were in the middle of conducting one of their most sacred responsibilities," Wray said during an event at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library"
"... the Portland riots didn't have the same severe consequences as the attempted coup on January 6, pointing out that although the Portland rioters attacked federal buildings, they "primarily attacked at night, meaning that they raged against a largely vacant courthouse," while the Capitol rioters jeopardized the safety of members of Congress and their staff."
