This story has gotten so old, its sad that even conservative media spends time dissecting the insanity of the regressive, retreating left to promote this false narrative.

I was hoping that after Election 2016, the secular, globalist, demonic Left would finally get a hint and go away.

How nave I was.

President Trump faces the hardest fight yet against every corporate interest dedicated to turning the United States into a second-world placeholder or a third-world hellhole.

How does that phrase go again? The Left never stops, never rests, never sleeps.

Indeed.

But Trump supporters are restless, and have no interest in backing down.

For the past two months, I have counter-protested with Los Angeles for Trump along with We the People Rising throughout Southern California. Fascist, race-baiting hate groups have stormed LA streets and arranged protests to shame, stun, or scare of Trump supporters.

But even in Los Angeles County, Republicans for Trump will not be stumped.

In Downtown, mid-February, protests against ICE and in favor of illegal aliens marched throughout Downtown Los Angeles. One of the organizers asked to speak to me. Why are you here?

I support my President, I support his policies, and I want to represent against the negative protests which lie about him.

Then as soon as I asked him what he was doing there, he told me You are a racist.

Normally, people want to get into a war of proofs and logic on this. That is the wrong approachcompletely.

Instead, I just asked him to explain: Why am I racist?

Because you are racist. Yes, that was his answer.

I didnt let it stay there, though, so I asked Are you discriminating against me because Im white?

His answer: Yes.

Done. His little racist retort has gone viral since then. I am not surprised that another organizer behind him told the liberal, pro-amnesty swarms invading the thoroughfares Do not interact with the Trump supporters. They only want to get attention. Do not talk to them.

Since when have protesters taken to the streets and expected not to get any attention? Seriously.

The real reason for the more level-headed protesters to tell the aggressive leftist to be quiet? So that they do not expose to the world how ignorant and just plain foolish they are.

Too late!

Another man reached out to me when Los Angeles for Trump was staking a claim on First and Spring Street. He told me that his parents were immigrants and he does not oppose the ban. He asked me why I was there. After I gave him my set answers, he proceeded to tell me that he opposed President Trumps wall and the travel ban.

All he could tell me was that he opposed it. When I asked him to explain why he opposed it, he struggled for words, then I moved away.

What is it with these silly liberals? They dont know what they believe, and they cant explain why they hate President Trump. Of course, Hollywood liberals have gotten away with saying I dont like Reagan, Bush, Trump etc.

They got away with this middle-school mentality for the past thirty years since the only news media anyone watched was the Big Three and CNN. Clinton News Network is hitting the skids, and the rest of us our journalists in our right. No one can take that away.

Now I announce the biggest reason I show up to Trump rallies and counter-protest liberal protests:

1. I am tired of the lies.

2. I am sick of the media giving the liars full press while the truth-seekers and tellers get pushed to the margins.

3. I am determined to counter the false narrative with the truth.

Trump supporters cannot disappear, go back to their homes, and pretend like everything is going to flow smoothly from this day forward.

These liberal, pussycat creepy-hat wearing liberals have gotten away with their ignoble temper-tantrums for years, and they had full run of the national playground with Barack Obama in the White House for eight years.

I was a school teacher, I even subbed for a few years. If the full-time teacher was indulgent, I spent the entire day disciplining kids. They werent used to someone saying NO! to them. Once a group of students understood they werent going ot get away with abusive antics in the classroom, they stopped acting upit wasnt worth the risk.

Liberals will not stop their Trumper-tantrums until We the People teach them that we will stand our ground and shout them down. We cant coast on our President to do all the fighting. He will only serve eight years, anyway.

When the left-wing crazies want to take over, we need to hold them accountable for what they say, post, and chant.

At the California Republican Party convention in Sacramento, I confronted a group of pro-Obamacare protesters. They want to save Obamacare? Really?! After about fifteen minutes going back and forth, they stopped shouting, started listening, then went away.

Thats how you do it!

Which leads me to one final anecdote. LA for Trump helps out demonstrations all over Southern California. Last weekend, we joined Ventura County Republicans. One lady had a poster with Donald Trump in a null sign with a swastika in his hair. First I pressed her to explain why Trump is a Nazi. Then I went for the jugular. Are you telling me that Trump helped exterminate 6 million Jews? Seriously?! Donald Trump has been the most vocal proponent of the state of Israel, and his nominee for ambassador is an Orthodox Jew who rejects the lop-sided Two-State solution.

For the next 15 minutes, fellow activists with me followed her and demanded that she defend her offensive insinuations. She could not, and she ran away from us.

Thats how you do it! Liberals will say stupid things, but we need to hold them accountable, for as long as Trump is in office, and long after Trump is no longer President.

When George W. Bush speaks, liberals are sure toreact. But then Bush defended freedom of the press in an interview withthe Today showsMatt Lauer:

I consider the media to be indispensable to democracy. We need the media to hold people like me to account. Power can be very addictive and it can be corrosive, and its important for the media to call to account people who abuse their power. The 43rd president also said that we need all the answers concerning possible Russian efforts to intervene in the 2016 presidential election.

In aseparate interviewwithPeople magazine,Bush decried the countrys political toxicity, remarking, I dont like the racism and name calling.

Liberals reacted very differently to George W. Bushthan they ever have before.Heres a sample from Twitter:

Star Trekicon George Takei: You know things are bad when George W. Bush starts sounding like a member of the Resistance.

Former San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom: I am typing these words: President George W. Bush is right. Freedom of the press is indispensable to democracy.

Glenn Greenwald: 2005: George W Bush is a pillaging, torturing war criminal who let a city drown.

2017: I may have disagreed with Bush but he was A Good Man.

Jedd Legum, editor,ThinkProgress:When did George W. Bush become a voice of reason?

It wasnt so long ago that liberals routinely claimed that Bush lied about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, said that he had had advance knowledge of 9/11, and compared him to Hitler.

These developmentsremind me of Mark Twains apocryphalquote about his father: When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learnedin seven years. Could it be that liberals have finally grown up? In the case of George W. Bush, liberals are astounded at how much hes learned in eight years.

Nowliberals arent the only people who are taking a different look at President Bush. Conservatives who once fiercelydefended Bush are now looking askance at himwhile worshiping at the altar of Trump. Laura Ingrahamtweeted: George W. Bush doesnt criticize Obamain 8 years, yet takes thinly veiled swipes at @realDonaldTrump 6 weeks in. #LowerEnergy. Well, Donald Trumps swipes werent so veiled when in February 2016 heproclaimed that, if elected, you will find out who really knocked down the World Trade Center. So now that Trump is in the White House,who do Ingraham and other conservatives think were responsible for the attacks of September 11, 2001?

But there has been conservative discontent with Bush for some time now. Liberal praise for Bush is something new under the sun.Perhaps all those years he has spent painting portraits in relative silence during the Obama administration has softened liberals feelings toward Bush. Perhaps they are learning how a real demagogue acts. Perhaps they are learning that George W. Bush was never the fascist, racist, or Nazi they thought.

Of course, President Bush has always supported the freedom of the press that comes with liberty. It is easy to forget how much time President Bush devoted to the topic of liberty inhis second inaugural address, on January 20, 2005:

We will persistently clarify the choice before every ruler and every nation: The moral choice between oppression, which is always wrong, and freedom, which is eternally right. America will not pretend that jailed dissidents prefer their chains, or that women welcome humiliation and servitude, or that any human being aspires to live at the mercy of bullies....

Some, I know, have questioned the global appeal of liberty though this time in history, four decades defined by the swiftest advance of freedom ever seen, is an odd time for doubt. Americans, of all people, should never be surprised by the power of our ideals. Eventually, the call of freedom comes to every mind and every soul. We do not accept the existence of permanent tyranny because we do not accept the possibility of permanent slavery. Liberty will come to those who love it.

Of course, these words were uttered at the height of thewarsin Afghanistan and Iraq and of Lebanese resistance to Syrian occupation. The hope of democratization in the Middle Eastwas in the air. Sadly, liberty remains in short supply over there and seems sorely out of fashion over here. But the idealism that drove Bushs desire to spread liberty in the Middle East is the same idealism that has led him to defend freedom of the press. Could it be that President Bush has stayed the same while liberals (and conservatives) have changed?

Yet chances are thatliberals havent learned anything. Well know they havent if they start praising President Trump when another Republican sits in the Oval Office. On the other hand, theres probablya better chance of seeing liberals one day praising President Trump than of him praising the press as indispensable to democracy.

These are highly polarized times, but there are still some things that cut across party lines. Like sexism.

Were seeing evidence of this now, for the millionth time, courtesy of Chelsea Clinton and Kellyanne Conway. The former first daughter took to Twitter last week after Conway, an adviser to President Donald Trump, was subject to a disgusting joke from Rep. Cedric Richmond (D-La.) about a photo of Conway sitting on a couch in the Oval Office with her legs curled under her.

The whole incident has been portrayed as a man bites dog kind of moment on the left OMG, progressives can be sexist, too!

The right, meanwhile, has held it up as evidence that leftists are hypocrites, willing to be sexist when it suits their political agenda.

Sadly, theres some truth to that. While many progressives are genuinely committed to the causes of feminism and womens equality, some are perfectly happy to take a page from the misogynist playbook in the name of politics.

Remember the Bernie Bros? During the presidential primary season, some of the most ardent supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) pounded former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with a gendered hammer. They criticized women for supporting Clinton because ofher gender as thoughit was somehow invalid to want to see a Democratic woman land the Oval Office and end centuries of male domination. There were critiques to be made of Clinton as a candidate, but its clear that some Bernie or bust types were openly animatedby misogyny. Like the guy who registered a Bern the Witch campaign event in New Jersey.

Liberal sexism predates the 2016 presidential campaign, of course.New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd famously won a Pulitzer for work that slut-shamed Monica Lewinsky as a crazy bimboand a ditsy, predatory White House intern. And in the early 90s, then-Sen. Joe Biden(D-Del.) and his male colleagues did littleto help Anita Hills claims of sexual harassment get a full hearing during the Supreme Court confirmation of Clarence Thomas.

Fast-forward to the aughts and you cant help seeing the sexism underneath criticisms of Sarah Palin, in so many ways the female precursor to Trump, as ditzy. No one calls Trump a ditsy bimbo though hes on his third wife, has had a well-publicized string of affairs and demonstrates a clear lack of understanding of a good deal of policy.

More recently, we shouldnt have been surprised that the one Trump Cabinet nominee to face serious pushback from Democrats was Betsy DeVos, one of only three women nominated to Trumps Cabinet. The education secretary is just as radical, dangerous and unqualified as Scott Pruitt, who now heads the Environmental Protection Administration. But only she was derided as a dimwit.

Betsy DeVos Is a Stupid, Stupid Person, reads a headline on The Root, a progressive website. The URL for that story is less subtle: betsy-devos-is-a-stupid-bitch.

Critics on the left men and women have been going after Conway for months. Deservedly so: Shes lied on behalf of the Trump administration, wholesale making up a terrorist attack that never happened. Speaking more broadly, shesdistanced herself from the idea of feminismand her job involves defending a man whos been repeatedly accused of sexual assault, whos signed executive orders hostile to women and whos put together an overwhelmingly male administration.

But not all criticism is created equal. And some progressives have shown no qualms about using sexism to go after Conway. Until Richmond crossed a line with his crude remark, though, no one seemed to care.

Richmond unleashed a wave of Conway defenders women stepping up to explain that while they may disagree with her tactics and her politics, the 50-year-old political strategist doesnt deserve to be run through the misogynist mill that processes so many powerful women. In fact, no one does. (Richmond apologized on Sunday.)

Like Clinton and Palin and countless other women in politics, Conways been criticized for her looks, had her tactics dismissed as crazy and had her lust for power parodied in a Saturday Night Live sketch.

And thats the core issue, of course. Women who want power arent normal. Theyre crazy.

Men who want power? Well, theyre just boys being boys.

Women who aspire to office are seen as overstepping the bounds of what girls are expected to do. And for that, theyll almost always face sexist pushback from all corners.

There are ways to change that, of course. You could sit back and wait for a massive cultural shift in the expectations and assumptions that start as soon as a little girl gets her first Barbie doll. Or, more women could run for office and win until their sheer numbers make sexist critiques harder to level.

Liberals Are Sexist Too, Of Course - Huffington Post

Disgraced ABC journalist Brian Ross is now attacking those who think a case can be made that the Obama administration ordered surveillance of political opponents. Ross has a long history of shoddy sourcing, outright fabrications, and all around cringeworthy reporting. This time he has set his sights on Conservative Review Editor-in-Chief Mark Levin. This is not going to end well for the Dan Rather of ABC news.

On ABC News This Week Ross had this to day about Levin, moments before playing a video clip of Levin discussing the brewing scandal.

White House officials this morning say they do not know the basis for the president's allegations a top secret intelligence briefing or whether it came from reading an article on the conservative Breitbart Web site posted Friday that detailed speculation from a conspiracy-loving talk show host, Mark Levin. [emphasis added]

Levin, who was chief of staff to Ed Meese at the Justice Department, took to Facebook to hit back at Ross.

What was Levin exactly talking about regarding Ross lack of professionalism? Where do we begin? You know its going to be bad when Gawker, yes that Gawker, calls you out for a lack of integrity.

When there's breaking news, especially about terrorism and national security, ABC News' Brian Ross is there. And under no circumstances should you listen to anything he says. His latest breathtakingly reckless report: Some Tea Party guy on the internet has the same name as the Dark Knight Rises shooter, so, you know, they have the same name. So there you go. Tea Party.

As Mediaite has noted, not long after authorities released the shooter's incredibly common name, James Holmes, Ross ran it through his extensive network of plugged-in sources (Google) and came up with this nugget, which he relayed, live on the air, to Good Morning America's millions and millions of viewers:

Ouch. Biased much?

Both ABC News, and Ross had to apologize for the gaffetastic rush to blame the Tea Party.

As Gawker pointed out, this isnt Ross only bit of less-than-truthful reporting.

Talk about conspiracy theories. In 2001, Ross reported that Saddam Hussein and Iraq were behind the string of anthrax mailings in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Ross said that he had three sources on some days, and four sources on others, according to Salon.

All of those factual claims each and every one of them, separately were completely false, demonstrably and unquestionably so. There is now no question about that. Yet neither ABC nor Ross have ever retracted, corrected, clarified, or explained these fraudulent reports reports which, as documented below, had an extremely serious impact on the views formed by Americans in those early, critical days about the relationship between the 9/11 attacks, the anthrax attacks and Iraq.

Back in 2010 there were reports that Toyota cars were losing control on the highway. Thats when ABC did an investigative piece on the reports. You may remember that ABC News staged footage of a Toyota going completely out of control? Yep, you guessed it, that was Ross too.

Toyata demanded a retraction.

Then there was the time that Ross claimed a former Guantanamo Bay prisoner masterminded the underwear bombing. Well, after people pointed out that the jihadi in question was actually in Saudi custody, which Gawker pointed out was easily found in an AP story, Ross had to publish a retraction.

ABCNews.com reported Monday in error that former Guantanamo prisoner #333, Muhamad Attik al-Harbi, was one of four leaders of the al Qaeda group which claimed responsibility for the attempted bombing.

Al-Harbi appeared in a propaganda tape released by the group in January 2009. According to published reports, he surrendered to Saudi security forces one month later in February 2009, well before the August arrival in Yemen of accused underwear bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.

Those are just a few of Ross greatest hits. When even Gawker, that bastion of defamatory reporting, calls you Americas Worst Reporter, you know youve hit rock bottom. Maybe getting your own house in order before throwing shade would be Ross best course of action.

Despite a late poll slump, scrappy organisation and the selection of "fruitcakes" as candidates, One Nation remains in a position to seize the balance of power in Western Australia's upper house, largely due to the enduring strength of Pauline Hanson's political brand, less than a week before the state election.

A ReachTEL poll commissioned by Fairfax last week showed that the Labor opposition was leading Colin Barnett's Liberal government by 52-48 on a two-party-preferred basis.

A poll of around 1700 residents shows the WA state election is set to be a tight contest.

But the Liberal Party's controversial preference deal with One Nation, which is polling at 8.5 per cent, could leave Ms Hanson's party with the balance of power in the upper house.

Dr Martin Drum, a senior lecturer in politics at the University of Notre Dame, said such a result suggests that should One Nation learnfrom its mistakes and should Ms Hanson continue to operate as effectively as she has in recent months, One Nation could wreak havocfor the Liberal and National parties in other state and federal elections in the future.

When the WA campaign began One Nation was polling at just over 13 per cent. The slump since then appears to have been inflicted by the quality of its local candidates, some of whom have proved to be "fruitcakes" saidDr Drum. "When they are in the headlines, it is normally for the wrong reasons."

Dr Drum notedthat polling throughout the campaign has shown discontent with both major parties, with Liberal losses not all flowing to Labor.

He said given that One Nation failed to find enough candidates to run in all the state's contestable seats and because some candidates appear not to have been closely vetted the scope of its impact in this environment was unpredictable.

In January an article that the party's candidate for the crucial seat of Pilbara, David Archibald, held by the National Party's leader Brendon Grylls, wrote in the musty conservative journal Quadrant was dusted off and republished to a broad audience.

Listing lifestyle choices that the government should defund, he began with "ugly" single mothers.

"The first that springs to mind is single motherhood," Mr Archibald wrote.

"These are women too lazy to attract and hold a mate, undoing the work of possibly 3 million years of evolutionary pressure.

"This will result in a rapid rise in the portion of the population that is lazy and ugly."

On Friday One Nation's candidate for another crucial seat, Kalamunda, on the eastern fringe of Perth, suddenly quit, citing a preference deal between One Nation and the Liberal Party.

"I've had enough," Ray Gould, told ABC radio.

"I'm talking to voters and they say, 'We like Pauline Hanson but she's done a deal with the Liberals and she can't be trusted'.

"I don't think I'll even get 4 per cent of the vote because she's messing with the voters' heads."

Kalamunda could help decide which party wins government. It is held by the Liberal Party with a margin of 10.3 per cent, which is almost exactly the size of the swing Labor needs to win governmentand, according to recent polling, just about the size of the swing that polling suggests we might see on election day.

The Liberal Party has faced criticism for cutting a deal with One Nation that will see it giving preferences to the insurgent outlier in the upper house in return for One Nation's preferences in the lower house.

Speaking on ABC TV on Sunday morning, during an interview in which she backed a cut to weekend penalty rates, voiced her support for the Russian President Vladimir Putin and cast doubt on the safety of vaccines, Ms Hanson was frank in support of the agreement.

"I have no problem with saying that because it is our best chance of getting One Nation candidates selected to the floor of Parliament. Of course, who is not going to do it?"

The deal has increased tensions between the Liberal Party and its National Party coalition partners, and demonstrated how seriously the Liberal Party takes the One Nation threat.

Some observers believe Mr Barnett has effectively sacrificed the lower house seat of Perth, where voters have expressed anger at the deal, in order to stave off One Nation challenges in rural and regional seats.

In the aftermath of a mining boom thatsome analysts consider to have been wasted, the election is being fought over bread and butter economic issues such as unemployment and debt. This has pitted the state's giant resources and agricultural sectors against one another, in turn increasing tension between the coalition partners.

The National Party under Mr Grylls is pushing to increase a state production tax on iron ore from 25 cents a tonne to $5, a proposal being fought by WA's Chamber of Minerals and Energy.

The Chamber's chief executive, Reg Howard-Smith, has been watching the electorate closely in the lead-up to the election.

"We've been close to the ground over the last few months and the feedback we've got is that everyone is concerned about jobs," he said.

"Resource sector jobs, but jobs more generally always comes at the top of the order."

Although the tax increase would generate an extra $3 billion in revenue for state coffers, Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton have argued it would cost jobs in the Pilbara and across WA.

Mr Howard-Smith also believes the tax rise,which would require legislation to overhaul state agreements with the two companies, would damage the investment attractiveness of the state.

"We've had fantastic support across the sector for this campaign we're running about iron ore and that's focused on two companies, but the reason is there are many, many people who can remember the RSPT [Resource Super Profits Tax]," he said.

"When the RSPT was announced, on that Saturday the Dockers and the Eagles were to play I never got to that game capital dried up instantly."

But Mr Howard-Smith was also concerned about a Nationals plan to give companies payroll tax breaks for workers in the Pilbara who were not fly-in, fly-out (FIFO), an idea which could cost jobs everywhere but in Mr Grylls' own electorate.

Mr Howard-Smith said the plan would devastate small towns in the south-west like Busselton and Manjimup where many FIFO workers choose to live, and where the Liberal Party holds a swathe of crucial seats.

"If you're coming out of Busselton and you've made the choice to live there but to maintain your job you have to travel to the Pilbara, then it's clearly a matter of choice," he said.

"Manjimup only has a small number of FIFO workers, in the twenties, but by the time you look at families and everything else, the contribution they make is significant.

"Rio reached out to those workers in Manjimup. At the time the timber industry was closing there were some good operators who they took on, so it just doesn't make any sense.

"They would have the most mature FIFO model, so you have a lot of people coming out of Busselton, a number from Albany, Geraldton, and Broome and Broome is essentially Aboriginal employment.

"That's working extremely well and I don't think the National party policy is realistic for one moment."

Unions have been quick to link the Liberal Party to One Nation.On Sunday the Victorian CFMEU leader John Setka tweeted in reference to the penalty rates decision, "Pauline Hanson is just another Liberal who hates workers!"

MsHanson herself travelled to Western Australia to begin a week's campaigning on Sunday, with an itinerary planned to include stops in Perth and towns in the south-west as well as regional centres including Port Hedland, Karratha, Kalgoorlie and Geraldton.

The Labor leader Bill Shorten is expected to join the campaign later in the week.

So far the Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull, whose last WA visit was not warmly received, has no plans to make the trip.
