The Rest f The Story 1

David Horowitz hits the nail on the head in this piece. Quote: "I have admired Alan Dershowitz ever since I picked up a copy of his first book The Best Defense over thirty years ago, and read its opening words. “The difference,” he wrote, between Perry Mason’s clients and mine is that mine are guilty.” And then he explained why it was important to provide the guilty the best defense. It was to keep the prosecution – the government – honest. Although Alan is a liberal – and he and I would probably disagree over many issues – when you think about it this idea is the bedrock of the conservative outlook. As conservatives, we believe that the root cause of social problems is not “society,” but us - our flawed nature as human beings. The people who are in government have the same impulses to lie, cheat, steel and destroy, as those they are prosecuting. But because they have the power of the state behind them, they are potentially even more dangerous than their targets. And that is why keeping them honest and holding them to the rules, to the process and the law is such a vital task in our democracy. And it is why Alan Dershowitz, a liberal and lifelong Democrat, is such an important figure to our nation in its present political crisis.   It is a tragedy for our nation that the Democratic Party itself is no longer a liberal party, committed to due process and individual rights. It has been taken over by a progressive cohort and ideology, that does not believe the root cause of our social problems is the flawed nature of individuals but instead is the oppressive nature of groups based on race, gender and sexual orientation. The disgraceful witch-hunts of President Donald Trump and Judge Brett Kavanaugh reveal a party that does not believe in due process, or innocent until proven guilty, but is comfortable with guilt by race and gender, and guilt by accusation. If the beliefs that inspire these attitudes prevail our still young republic is over."    https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/272054/alan-dershowitz-emblem-our-national-crisis-david-horowitz    I too admire Dershowitz for his ethics and decency. His fellow Democrats would do well to adopt his approach rather than the hate Trump and anyone who supports him no matter what.  The country would be in a much better place.

Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller is the personification of the unethical human beings that famed Democrat lawyer Allen Dershowitz abhors. This is an example.  Quote: "Mueller digging around Trump’s legitimate business dealings proves this investigation is a witch hunt. If he had the goods on collusion he would have produced them. Instead he is reduced to terrorizing a man’s children because he won an election everyone thought belonged to Hillary Clinton."   https://patriotpulse.net/how-robert-muellers-democrats-are-attacking-trumps-kids-will-make-you-sick/ 

The British intelligence service known as MI6 is fighting to keep Trump from releasing classified Russian collusion documents. What are they trying to hide?   Quote: "The UK’s Secret Intelligence Service, otherwise known as MI6, has been scrambling to prevent President Trump from publishing classified materials linked to the Russian election meddling investigation, according to The Telegraph, stating that any disclosure would “undermine intelligence gathering if he releases pages of an FBI application to wiretap one of his former campaign advisers.” Trump’s allies, however, are fighting back – demanding transparency and suggesting that the UK wouldn’t want the documents withheld unless it had something to hide."     https://realconservativesunite.com/2018/11/25/mi6-scrambling-to-stop-trump-from-releasing-classified-docs-in-russia-probe/    They may in fact be embarrassed at exposing their role in collusion with Democrats. 

Because so many of the political progressive left's ideas are not viewed favorably by average Americans Democrats have long used left leaning judicial activist judges to advance their agenda. Their legislative effort almost always fail to reach their goals to enact their agenda because so much of it is unconstitutional. Most loyal American citizens express their disagreement with the left's policies through their elected representatives.  Nonetheless the political left persists in pursuing THEIR objectives. This item discusses their intent to stuff the Supreme Court with favorable left wing judges to get their socialist agenda in place. Quote: "The idea of packing the Supreme Court has been popular in liberal circles for some time. Activists started discussing it even before President Trump nominated Justice Brett Kavanaugh earlier this year. Liberals acknowledge that having a Democrat president and Senate pack the court is risky because a Republican president and Senate can do the same in the future. However, activists are hoping that continually discussing the idea of packing the court will intimidate conservative justices, on the court and cause them to rule in favor of liberal causes. At the same time, the packing idea isn’t the only one that is being discussed in progressive circles. The Roosevelt Institute has listed five ways in which the Supreme Court can be made to bend to liberals’ will, and these ideas include limiting the jurisdiction the Supreme Court has over certain matters, placing term limits on justices, looking for ways to impeach certain Supreme Court justices and even ignoring Supreme Court decisions altogether."     https://www.conservativezone.com/articles/progressives-are-getting-desperate-to-reshape-the-supreme-court/  The political left is so convinced their socialist policies are the best possible ones for us they are willing to pursue unethical means to convince us they are right.  Since Democrats do not control the Senate or the White House I see no way that at least in the near term they will be successful.

This item deals with the rank hypocrisy of the whole of the political left establishment.  I would like to add that it also highlights their rank idiocy. Quote: Considering Obama policies: "These appalling policies were defended with a misguided liberal version of realpolitik. Why do we have to cut a deal with the Iranian regime? Well, because Iran isn’t going anywhere. The regime has legitimate grievances. You make peace with your enemies not your friends. Dialogue will create its own new possibilities. And so on. In other words, liberals were just fine with bad regimes killing people, even large numbers of people, so long as the repression, terrorism, and aggression were priced in to liberal policy goals. The hypocrisy on display today from those who had a hundred reasons why sending billions to terrorists was a great idea, but an authoritarian regime rubbing out a regime critic should be treated as a vast geopolitical scandal, is a sight to behold. Are they so swept up in the pleasures of condemning Trump they don’t realize they themselves excused far worse than a single murder? Are they clinging so bitterly to Obama's admiration of Iran and contempt for the Arabs that they can't see their utter lack of consistency or principle?"    https://freebeacon.com/blog/laughable-hypocrisy-echo-chamber/?
The problems on our southern border with Mexico are getting serious. Quote: "Thousands of migrants amassed along the U.S.-Mexico border in preparation for an invasion.  Americans were fearful their border was about to be overrun. But then Donald Trump revealed the caravan’s fate and it wasn’t what anyone was expecting. A division of hundreds of migrants broke off from the main column and tried to storm the U.S. border."    https://www.americanpatriotdaily.com/featured/trump-revealed-caravans-fate/

This left wing Democrat head of the Broward County office of elections committed multiple crimes over multiple election cycles for the benefit of Democrat candidate.  She is now filing lawsuits fighting her dismissal from office. Rank dishonesty is indefensible. https://www.bizpacreview.com/2018/12/02/broward-soe-snipes-rescinds-resignation-lawyers-up-will-fight-to-very-end-after-gov-scott-suspended-her-698525?    North Carolina also has a problem with voter fraud.   https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/419693-second-woman-says-she-was-paid-to-collect-absentee-ballots-in-north

This is proof positive that way, way too many members of both sides of the political aisles do not care about facts or the truth. Quote: "According to the U.S. Border Patrol, no  less than 1,500 illegal migrants violate our southern border with Mexico every night.  Dr. Steven Camarota, www.CIS.org, stated that an average of 500,000 illegal migrants cross into the USA annually.  They arrive via legal visas that they disregard and remain in the USA to find jobs.  They arrive as anchor baby mothers.  They arrive as workers. An estimated 7 to 10,000 people from Central America rush our southern borders in an attempt to illegally cross into America for jobs and a better life.  The entire world sends us 1,000,000 (million) legal refugees annually, and we absorb them via our U.S. Congress that can’t seem to see our country bursting at the seams with too many people already and another 100 million about to be imported over the next 30 years. The biggest draw for illegal immigration: jobs. This mass transit of humanity crossing our U.S. borders continues after 40 years. Why?  Because our U.S. Congress refuses to pass the most powerful law to stop them: E-Verify.  That law, strictly enforced, would stop employers from hiring illegal aliens in their workforce."    https://godfatherpolitics.com/e-verify-would-stop-illegal-immigration-but-congress-wont-pass-it/
