The Democrat Party Is Dumb, but Its Identity Politics Is also Cynical

IS JAMES CLAPPER REALLY DUMBER THAN THE REST OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY?? Ask Sebastian Gorka. • • • DiGENOVA AGREES. BizPac Review told the story on Saturday : "On Friday, Washington, DC, power couple and law-firm partners Joe diGenova and Victoria Toensing were on Sebastian Gorka’s radio talk show, 'America First,' talking about the genesis of the collusion delusion...otherwise known as the Russian hoax...the President has called it a coup. They have no doubt who is responsible. Attorneys diGenova and Toensing are fully convinced it was former CIA Director John Brennan who originated 'the conspiracy to spy on domestic political opponents in the United States and to do what he did to frame Donald Trump.' Gorka introduced the segment with his guests by talking about a 'hero' that is about to take center stage when he testifies...former NSA Director Admiral Michael Rogers. 'Admiral Rogers discovered illegal spying by FBI contractors and revealed it to the FISA Court on his own without the permission of the FBI director or the Attorney general or the Secretary of Defense or the National Security Council and started a collapse,' said diGenova, '...a domino collapse of all the illegal activity. That’s why he shut down all FBI contractors from accessing NSA data. Judge Collier, the chief judge of the FISA Court, went ballistic and she refused to authorize FISA warrants for a period of time because of this.' " • BizPac Review continued : " 'Let’s be clear here,' said Gorka. '[Rogers] is the director of the NSA during the Obama Administration....he found out this illegal surveillance had been going on for how long Joe?' 'We believe between three and four years,' diGenova replied. According to diGenova and Toensing, the spying American citizens had been going on well before the 2016 election spying. They tracked it back to at least 2012. 'Our understanding is it got beefed up in the year around the election,' said Toensing. 'Admiral Rogers is talking to people now....He doesn’t have any choice, but he will willingly testify about what he discovered what happened and why he was so disturbed about what the FBI had been doing,' said diGenova." • When Gorka asked who thought it was a good idea to start spying on Americans, Toensing answered : "Joe and I are (sure) that it started with Brennan. He was the brains behind it because Clapper’s really too dumb," said Toensing.“ • Then, Gorka told his Clapper story : " 'Clapper...let me be clear here. Clapper...was director of the DIA in the 1990s. This is from a friend of mine in the DIA,' said Gorka. '[Clapper] decided in 1991 it would be a good idea...it’s not a joke, it’s unclassified...you can look it up...it would be a good idea to give the SVR resident, meaning the KGB resident, the chief of station in Washington, a pink all-access Pentagon badge because we’re buddies now. This is the quality of people we’re talking about...a pink all-access Pentagon badge for the head of espionage in the Russian federal embassy here in the United States. (This was) before the DIA’s senior service said, ‘we are all going to resign, General Clapper if you do this.' 'There’s no doubt,' said diGenova, 'that John Brennan is the core of the entire conspiracy to spy on domestic political opponents in the United States and to do what he did to frame Donald Trump. Brennan has always been an ugly, ugly person politically, ethically, and morally, and he carried it through to an awful degree when it came to Donald Trump. They viewed the President as an immoral vulgarian who should not have the Oval Office and they were going to do everything they could to either prevent him from being elected or to evict him once he had been elected....Because they felt that they had the authority and the mandate to subvert the people’s will and to take seditious activity against our Republic,' Gorka added." • Will Obama's "Get Trump" thugs be caught and prosecuted? It is high time. • • • COMEY'S FBI GENERAL COUNSEL IS SQUIRMING. American Thinker editor Thomas Lifson wrote an article on Monday that paints a picture of trapped cabal players running for cover. Lifson wrote : "We just got a glimpse of the coming lines of defense for the deposed political cabal that formerly ran the FBI, as well as the limits of loyalty among them. Former FBI General Counsel James Baker spoke in public Friday, before a very friendly crowd at the Brookings Institution, where his pal Benjamin Wittes, a fellow there, organized a public event where the two men spoke. He revealed some useful indications of what’s going on among the cabal that weaponized the FBI’s counter-intelligence apparatus against candidate and then President Donald Trump. Jerry Dunleavy of the Washington Examiner reports : 'Former FBI General Counsel James Baker admitted on Friday that he is 'nervous' about DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s investigation into the conduct of the DOJ and the FBI during the Trump-Russia probe....Baker said he is 'assuming that they will dig and find stuff' and that 'we’ll try to sort it out and see what mistakes were made.' But Baker defended the FBI's actions, including its use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.' " • Lifson correctly reads this to mean that Baker’s blaming “mistakes not conscious planning for the abuses he knows will be uncovered. He has not turned state’s evidence. But most importantly, Baker seems to be allowing that others may have committed crimes and concealed them from him." • Here is more of Baker's remarks quoted by Lifson : "Wittes then asked Baker: 'So, how nervous are you about the IG?' Baker said he is 'always nervous about the IG,' adding that 'they’re coming in after the fact to look at what we did.' At the time, he said, the FBI was 'trying to do it in real time and having the pressure to deal with these threats as they were coming.' Baker contended that he was 'confident in the judgments that I made at the time based on the information that I had available to me.' But he left open the possibility that others may have engaged in wrongdoing, saying, 'I’m sure they will find things that I didn’t know at the time and maybe that others didn’t know at the time.' ” • Lifson says Baker went to define himself as "not a conspirator, not a rat, but maybe a dupe" : “ 'There were facts that existed in the Bureau that were known by certain people that weren’t known by others including me, that’s certainly possible and that happens frequently,' Baker said. 'And so, I’m assuming that they will dig and find stuff like that. So, we’ll try to sort it out and see what mistakes were made.' Baker also is sticking to the Party Line that the FISA warrants were lawful : 'Baker defended the FBI’s use of the Steele Dossier and stressed that he examined the FISA warrant applications on Page before they got signed and sent to the court. He said he was 'comfortable' with their contents and was confident that the process remained 'lawful.' Regarding the FISA court, Baker said : 'These are federal judges for goodness' sake. They know how to evaluate wiretap applications....These are serious, serious judges.' On the bureau’s handling of Steele, Baker said, 'We’re not stupid. The FBI. We’re not stupid.' And Baker said the FBI was careful in the way it used Steele’s reporting. “We have an obligation to take that information seriously and to be highly skeptical...You go to work...You try to validate it...We don’t just swallow it hook, line, and sinker....We spent a lot of time trying to vet that information line by line,' he said. 'We are the Federal Bureau of Investigations, not the Federal Bureau of Conclusions,' Baker said defensively." • If Baker sounds like a "trapped cabal players running for cover," that's probably because he is, and he knows where enough bodies are buried to cop a plea or squirm out of the cabal legal net altogether. • • • RAPPERS SHOULD NOT DABBLE IN ILLEGAL POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS. That's the only conclusion I can draw from the rather bizarre story about Pras Michel, the rapper indicted for funneling millions in foreign money to Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign. BizPac Review wrote on Sunday : "On Friday, Pras Michel, a rapper for the group ‘The Fugees,’ was indicted by the US government for funneling millions of dollars of foreign money to Barack Obama’s 2012 presidential campaign. In a DOJ statement, the feds announced Michel and a Malaysian financier were charged with four counts 'for conspiring to make and conceal foreign and conduit campaign contributions.' Michel, 46, and Low Taek Jho, 37, aka 'Jho Low,' were charged with conspiracy to defraud the US government and for making foreign and conduit campaign contributions. Michel also was charged with one count of a scheme to conceal material facts and two counts of making a false entry in a record in connection with the conspiracy." • BizPac Review stated : "Michel appeared on Friday for his arraignment before Judge G. Michael Harvey in the District of Columbia. Low remains at large. The Department of Justice statement reads, in part : 'According to the indictment, between June 2012 and November 2012, Low directed the transfer of approximately $21,600,000 from foreign entities and accounts to Michel for the purpose of funneling significant sums of money into the United States presidential election as purportedly legitimate contributions, all while concealing the true source of the money. To facilitate the excessive contributions and conceal their true source, Michel paid approximately $865,000 of the money received from Low to about 20 straw donors, or conduits, so that the straw donors could make donations in their names to a presidential joint fundraising committee. In addition, Michel personally directed more than $1 million of the money received from Low to an independent expenditure committee also involved in the presidential election in 2012.' The indictment also alleges that by funneling campaign contributions through straw donors, Michel caused a presidential joint fundraising committee to submit false reports to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), including a false amended report in June 2013. The committee’s reports were false because they identified the straw donors, rather than Low or Michel, as the true source of the contributions. In addition, the indictment alleges that by contributing more than $1 million of the money he received from Low to an independent expenditure committee, Michel also caused that committee to submit false reports to the FEC, insofar as those reports identified Michel as the source of the contributions when, in fact, it was Low. The indictment further alleges that in June 2015, Michel submitted a false declaration to the FEC in which he claimed that he had no reason to conceal the true source of his contributions to the independent expenditure committee in 2012, even though Michel knew that the true source of that money was Low and that Michel had funneled the foreign money into the election.' In a statement made to Pitchfork, Pras’ attorney Barry J. Pollack said, 'Mr. Michel is extremely disappointed that so many years after the fact the government would bring charges related to 2012 campaign contributions. Mr. Michel is innocent of these charges and looks forward to having the case heard by a jury.' A spokesperson for Low had this to say : 'Mr. Low is innocent -- and he is presumed innocent under US law. The allegations against Mr. Low have no basis in fact : Mr. Low has never made any campaign contributions directly or indirectly in the US and he unequivocally denies any involvement in or knowledge of the alleged activities.' ” • Usually, large sums of foreign money are illegally funneled into presidential or congressional campaigns because the donor or donors want a favor from the candidate after his or her election. Has ANYBODY asked former President Obama if he knows Low or Michel, or if he has ever dealt with either of them in business affairs?? I know these questions would not be asked by the ProgDem pro-Obama lapdog mainstream media without severely prodding and embarrassing them, but somebody needs to ask. Is there a real journalist out there ready to step up and do his job?? • • • AND, WHILE WE'RE SPEAKING OF OBAMA. BlabberBuzz revealed on Sunday that the Obama White House was tracking FOIA requests regarding Hillary Clinton. • BlabberBuzz wrote, quoting Judicial Watch : "Judicial Watch has scored an impressive achievement by digging into the records of the entire Clinton e-mail scandal, showing that not only was the Obama White House aware of what was going on, but Clinton’s State Department may have lied in response to Freedom of Information Act requests. While you probably thought we’d heard the last of this tale, it turns out that this debacle dates back to 2012. At that time, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) had submitted a FOIA request to the State Department asking for information about how many email accounts the Secretary of State had been using. They were told no such records existed and the White House continued to maintain that position for some time to come. But now, new documents show that the White House was indeed aware of the situation and were tracking CREW’s FOIA requests, presumably to keep a handle on the situation." Judicial Watch has announced that : "It obtained 44 pages of records from the State Department through court-ordered discovery revealing that the Obama White House was tracking a December 2012 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request seeking records concerning then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of an unsecure, non-government email system. Months after the Obama White House involvement, the State Department responded to the requestor, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), falsely stating that no such records existed. Judicial Watch’s discovery is centered upon whether Clinton intentionally attempted to evade the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by using a non-government email system and whether the State Department acted in bad faith in processing Judicial Watch’s FOIA request for communications from Clinton’s office. One of the smoking guns here comes in the form of a December 2012 email sent by Sheryl L. Walter, the director of the State Department’s Office of Information Programs and Services (IPS). The subject line is something of a dead giveaway. "'Need to track down a FOIA request from CREW.' The body of the email begins with two simple words...'WH called.' She then asks for any details about the FOIA request so she can 'call the WH back,' noting that they would like a 'quick turnaround.' From there, the plot thickens quickly. The State Department was handling the FOIA request and keeping the White House in the loop. But, they appeared to be limiting the scope of their search. Here’s what CREW had originally requested : '[R]ecords sufficient to show the number of email accounts of or associated with Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton, and the extent to which those email accounts are identifiable as those of or associated with Secretary Clinton.' In January, Ms. Walter writes again, saying they’ve been looking into the number of email accounts associated with Secretary Clinton, but since CREW 'isn’t specifying 'personal' email accounts so we are interpreting as official accounts only.' It’s looking fairly obvious at this point that they know about the private server but are only collecting the official State Department email accounts. And what did they do with all of this information when the task was finally accomplished? Nothing. The response sent back to CREW simply read, 'no records responsive to your request were located.' ” • As BlabberBuzz states : "That clearly appears to be a lie. And people generally don’t tend to lie (particularly in official government correspondence) without a powerful motivation to do so. The question now is where do we go from here? This looks like fairly damning evidence, but who, if anyone, can do anything with it?" • But, says Gateway Pundit : "Thanks to Judicial Watch, in January a federal court ordered discovery on Hillary Clinton’s emails and Benghazi scandal. Judge Royce Lamberth ordered top Obama and Hillary officials such as Susan Rice, Ben Rhodes and other State and FBI officials to answer Judicial Watch’s questions under oath. Judge Lamberth said Hillary Clinton’s private email system was 'one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.' " • Here is what Judicial Watch adds about the State Department response to the FOIA request : "In the same email chain, Walter on December 20, 2012 also emailed Heather Samuelson, Clinton’s White House liaison, describing the CREW FOIA request : 'Hi Heather -- Copy attached, it was in our significant weekly FOIA report that we send to L and S/ES also. Do you want us to add you to that list? It’s a subset of things like this that we think likely to be of broader Department interest. More detail below re this request. As a practical matter given our workload, it won’t be processed for some months. Let me know if there are any particular sensitivities. If we don’t talk later, happy holidays! All the best, Sheryl' 'Sheryl : The request is assigned Case #F-2012-40981. It was received on 12/6/2012 and acknowledged on 12/10/2012. The request is assigned for processing.' On January 10, 2013, Walter writes to Samuelson that she is not including 'personal' accounts in the FOIA request search : 'Hi Heather -- did you ever get any intell re what other agencies are doing re this FOIA request that seeks records about the number of email accounts associated with the Secretary (but isn’t specifying 'personal' email accounts so we are interpreting as official accounts only). We are considering contacting the requester to find out exactly what it is they are looking for. Do you have any-concerns about that approach?' Soon afterward, Samuelson responds, 'White House Counsel was looking into this for me. I will circle back with them now to see if they have further guidance.' On May 10, 2013, [Information Programs and Services replied to CREW and falsely claimed, 'no records responsive to your request were located.' " • BlabberBuzz points out that Heather Samuelson then became Hillary Clinton’s "personal lawye" and was "tasked with sifting through Hillary’s emails to determine which ones were "personal" and which ones were "work-related." She was, says BlabberBuzz, also "one of the 5 Clinton aides who was granted immunity by Obama’s DOJ in the Hillary email investigation." • BlabberBuzz gives the Judicial Watch conclusion : " 'These documents suggest the Obama White House knew about the Clinton email lies being told to the public at least as early as December 2012,' said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. 'A federal court granted Judicial Watch discovery into the Clinton emails because the court wanted answers about a government cover-up of the Clinton emails. And now we have answers because it looks like the Obama White House orchestrated the Clinton email cover-up.' ” • What did President Obama know and when did he know it??? Has Attorney General Barr ordered his DOJ laywers to begin asking this vital question?? • • • AND, CNN COVERAGE OF ROGER STONE'S PRE-DAWN ARREST GETS MORE ATTENTION. Gateway Pundit reported on Sunday that : "FBI Refuses FOIA Request For Emails Sent From CNN Analyst and Former Comey Aide Josh Campbell Just Before Roger Stone Raid." BlabberBuzz quotes Gateway Pundit on tis revelation about FOIA requests related to the Roger Stone raid : "The FBI on Tuesday rejected a FOIA request from The Federalist for emails sent to and from CNN the day of the pre-dawn raid of Roger Stone where CNN just so happened to be camping out. 'Please provide all e-mails sent to or received from any account with a ‘cnn.com’ domain from January 24, 2019 through January 25, 2019,' The Federalist wrote in its FOIA request. CNN just so happened to be hanging around with a full camera crew at Roger Stone’s Fort Lauderdale, Florida home prior to the FBI arriving to conduct a pre-dawn raid of the Trump confidante’s home. CNN was the only camera crew on the scene of the FBI raid on Roger Stone’s home -- they claimed it was just a hunch and good instincts that led them to Stone’s home the morning of the raid. 'It’s reporter’s instinct,' Shortell said shortly after the raid, according to the Washington Examiner. The FBI justified its refusal to provide documents requested by The Federalist by claiming the request was 'overly broad.' In a letter to The Federalist justifying its refusal to provide the request records, the FBI claimed that the request for emails to and from a specific domain sent or received on two specific dates was 'overly broad,' did not provide 'enough detail to enable personnel to locate' the records, and sought information in 'vague and undefined terms.' The FBI further claimed that the underlying request itself, which specified both the date and the sender’s or recipient’s email domain, did not comply with federal regulations regarding requests for information made under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). [BUT] In a separate FOIA request, The Federalist specifically asked for any and all FBI emails on the day of Stone’s raid sent to/from Josh Campbell. Recall, Josh Campbell is James Comey’s former FBI-aide-turned-law-enforcement analyst for CNN. The FBI also rejected the FOIA request on Josh Campbell’s emails -- how convenient. Using the same rationale, the FBI also rejected a separate FOIA request from The Federalist which specifically requested any and all FBI emails on the day of the Stone raid sent to or from Josh Campbell, a former FBI employee who worked under James Comey, former director of the FBI, and now works as a law enforcement analyst for CNN, as well as any and all emails from that day specifically mentioning Roger Stone. The FBI did not explain how a request noting a specific date, specific character string, and specific sender or recipient did not satisfy federal regulations covering open records requests made pursuant FOIA." • BUT, the Gateway Pundit states that it obtained exclusive documents in early February showing CNN was tipped off on the Roger Stone raid : "Documents obtained exclusively by The Gateway Pundit show a copy of the draft indictment without the PACER filing number or official stamps of the court, with metadata on the document identifying it as being authored by 'AAW,' who was suspected to be then-lead Special Counsel prosecutor Andrew Weissmann. Stone’s attorneys asked both the House and Senate Judiciary Committees to investigate these leaks and provide answers to the American people on how someone could have obtained sealed grand jury indictments. As usual, the FBI is covering up their corruption and ongoing problem of unauthorized leaks to the media." • The FBI claimed the request -- a day's worth of e-mails to one person mentioning 'Roger Stone' -- was too vague. I suppose if the Federalist had sent copies of the emails and asked if the FBI had actually received or sent them, that would have been TOO VAGUE as well. REMEMBER -- this is what is touted as the new FBI under Director Christopher Wray !! Can anyone tell us why Wray is doing no better than Comey did at being forthcoming in protecting American citizens from Deep State tyranny. Is Wray, like Comey, part of the cabal, or is Wray just a puppet trapped in a Deep State FBI too corrupt to ever be rehabilitated. Is razing the FBI and starting from scratch the only solution?? • • • SWEDEN RE-OPENS ASSANGE RAPE CASE. Fox News reported on Monday that Swedish prosecutors say the rape case against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will be reopened, at the request of the alleged victim's lawyer. The case's reopening comes a month after Assange was removed from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. Fox News states : "Sweden's deputy director of public prosecutions Eva-Marie Persson made the announcement at a news conference in Stockholm. She said that 'there is still a probable cause to suspect that Assange committed a rape.' Swedish prosecutors filed preliminary charges against Assange after he visited the country in 2010. Assange, who has denied the charges, has avoided extradition by seeking refuge in London's Ecuadorian embassy. Seven years later, a case of alleged sexual misconduct was dropped when the statute of limitations expired. That left a rape allegation, which couldn't be pursued while Assange was living at the embassy. The statute of limitations on that case expires in August 2020. Assange was evicted from the embassy last month and sentenced to 50 weeks in prison for violating his bail. The US has also begun extradition proceedings for Assange's alleged role in leaking diplomatic and military secrets in 2010." In April, TheHill reported that : "Assange was also previously involved in a rape investigation that was dropped in 2017, and a Swedish lawyer for the alleged victim told Reuters on Thursday that she will ask prosecutors to reopen the case and extradite Assange to Sweden. 'My client and I have just received the news that Assange has been arrested. The fact that what we have been waiting and hoping for nearly seven years is now happening, of course, comes as a shock to my client,' Elisabeth Massi Fritz, the attorney, told Reuters in a text. 'We will do all we can to get prosecutors to reopen the Swedish preliminary criminal investigation so that Assange can be extradited to Sweden and be prosecuted for rape,' she added. • We have to ask if the Swedish government -- like all European governments rather obviously anti-Trump and anti-US -- has found the rape case to be a convenient tool to delay even more the extradition of Julian Assange to the United States for prosecution for allegedly conspiring to hack into computers in connection with the organizations’ release of classified government cables from Chelsea Manning, a former Army private and intelligence analyst. Assange in 2016 published emails from then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee. He has defended his actions, saying he was acting as a journalist. The hacked emails were thought to have aided Russian interference ahead of the 2016 election. The Justice Department last year mistakenly revealed it had prepared charges against Assange in connection to the publishing of the emails. The charge of conspiracy to commit computer intrusion of a classified US government computer carries a five-year maximum sentence. • • • THE LATEST COLORADO SCHOOL SHOOTING. There is a tragic story unfolding in Colorado. The Federalist wrote on Saturday that the transgender Colorado shooter’s father is an illegal alien, deported twice for domestic violence against the shooter's mother. The transgender shooter is accused of killing one student and injuring eight others at a school near Denver, Colorado. • The Daily Mail covered the breaking story : "The father of one of the alleged STEM School Highlands Ranch shooters in Colorado is a serial felon and illegal immigrant from Mexico, DailyMail.com can reveal. Jose Evis Quintana, the father of alleged 16-year-old killer Alec McKinney was once jailed for 15 months for domestic violence against Alec’s mother and ‘menacing with a weapon’. McKinney has been charged alongside his friend Devon Erickson of killing one student and injuring eight others at the school close Denver, Colorado. Records show Quintana, 33, who was also deported twice, had a string of arrests in the Colorado dating back from 2008 to 2017. Court papers show that despite Quintana terrorizing Alec’s mother Morgan Lynn McKinney, 32, he managed to convince her [we have to wonder at what threat or actual use of violence against her] to marry him in 2009, a year before he was first deported. Quintana, 33, who admitted to having a history of drink and drug problems, was sent back to his native Mexico on December 9, 2010. Alec, 16, had posted a message on social media about missing his father, just 11 days before the Tuesday May 7 shooting which saw McKinney and friend Devon Erickson, 18, allegedly kill one student and injure eight others. Transgender McKinney, who was born a girl called Mya, had turned 16 on April 14 and wrote on twitter on April 26: ‘My mom talking to me about how she hates the new alec. Mom : I miss my Alec can you find him for me. Me: I miss my dad can you find him for me.’ Records at Douglas County District Court in Castle Rock, Colorado show Quintana had been jailed for 15 months in August 2009 for ‘menacing with a weapon’ and domestic violence against hairstylist Morgan....There’s a lot more to the story that can be found here." • Alec’s father, Jose Evis Quintana, is a serial felon and illegal alien who violently attacked Alec’s mom and was deported twice. Alec, or Mya, is also taking testosterone. Yet the mainstream media wants us to blame guns and punish law abiding gun owners for this tragic shooting. The Gateway Pundit reveals that : "New evidence about the motives of the Colorado shooters has shown what the reason for their violent bloodbath was. The new evidence about the writings of [the other] shooter [Devon Erickson] showed that he had a deep hatred for 'all these Christians who hate gays,' The Washington Examiner reported. The social media posts by a suspect in the STEM School Highlands Ranch shooting in Colorado included opposition to 'Christians who hate gays,' criticism of President Trump, and support for the left-wing Occupy Democrats. On his now-deleted Facebook account, Devon Erickson, 18, posted : 'You know what I hate? All these Christians who hate gays, yet in the bible, it says in Deuteronomy 17:12-13, if someone doesn’t do what their priest tells them to do, they are supposed to die. It has plenty of crazy stuff like that. But all they get out of it is ‘ewwwwww gays.' The other suspect in the shooting, which left one dead and seven wounded, has been identified as in court documents as Mya McKinney, a 16-year-old female who identifies as a transgender male and prefers to be called Alec. Evidence that was discovered immediately after the shooting showed that Erickson, whose transgender partner helped him commit the heinous crimes, despised President Donald Trump and loved former President Obama." • Democrats immediately politicize mass shootings, and school shootings, making the shootings about gun-slinging conservatives who support the right to bear arms. But when the school shooter is a teenaged radicla Left budding terrorist, it doesn't fit their agenda, and so the Democrats, radical themselves, and their propagandist media ignore the politics of the shooter and turn the shooting into a reason to "Get Trump." KMGH in Denver reported that the motive may have been linked to “revenge and anger toward others at the school,” adding that at least one of the two alleged shooters had been involved in drug use, both legal and illegal, and had undergone therapy." • Denver7 reported that the second suspect in the #STEMshooting is a transgender who was in the midst of transitioning from female to male and added, "sources said that the motive of the shooters went beyond bullying and involved revenge and anger towards others." • • • DEAR READERS, I will say again that it is impossible to fully understand what possesses some very disturbed people to shoot innocents. But, I have to believe that the Democrat Party in its effort to survive by creating the toxic environment of 'identity politics' needs to consider the damage it does to Americans who are fragile and unable to separate the cynical Democrat appeal to identity as a political 'get out the vote' tool from their own real life traumas. Those who are part of what the Democrats and their propagandist media now glibly call the "LGBTQ+ community" are not a voting block. They are not a subset of the Democrat Party voter profile. They are Americans who have fundamental issues to deal with -- whether related to self-identity or family acceptance or broader social issues. To exploit them for their votes is inhuman and un-Christian in the deepest sense. The latest Colorado school shooting tragedy surely relates to Democrat identity politics. It is time to rescue the real victims of the Democrat Party -- those who identity with the LGBTQ+ labels foisted on them -- and to call out the Democrat Party for its heartless manipulation of these Americans who need our love and support, instead of Democrat political tactics.
