Darrell Issa destroys Jasmine Crockett With real-time fact check re: impeaching judges

Well folks, it looks like Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) decided to play a quick game of "Gotcha!" with Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) during Tuesday’s hearing, and he didn’t even need to break a sweat. 

Issa took Crockett’s sanctimonious grandstanding and turned it into a self-inflicted wound faster than you can say "hypocrisy-suppository." All he had to do was point to her own rap sheet of judicial impeachment cheerleading to shut down her whining about Republicans threatening the sacred halls of justice.

Crockett, bless her racist heart, joined the usual chorus of Democrats clutching their pearls and wailing that democracy itself—yes, democracy itself—would crumble into dust if those mean ol’ Republicans dared to impeach any of the sainted judges who’ve been single-handedly thwarting President Donald Trump’s administration at every turn. Sniff.

Here’s where it gets good. Crockett went full drama queen, practically hyperventilating as she preached about protecting the judiciary’s pristine honor. That is, until Issa swooped in like a hawk with a memory and reminded everyone that Crockett herself co-sponsored legislation to impeach Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. 

Whoops! Townhall.com caught the fireworks on X: “Jasmine Crockett starts HYPERVENTILATING about protecting the institution of the judiciary — before PROMPTLY being reminded by @repdarrellissa that she cosponsored legislation to impeach Justices Thomas & Alito! ‘AOC filed articles of impeachment on Justice Thomas & Alito.…’” Oof, that’s gotta sting.

Then came the hypocrite's sermon. “The problem that we have right now is that if we continue down this road, we will not have a rule of law because we have people that are currently serving and they’re saying things like, ‘Ignore the judge’s order,’” she huffed, while conveniently forgetting to mention that her pal President Joe Biden pulled the exact same stunt when he rammed through his student loan forgiveness scheme after the Supreme Court told him to take a hike. 

Details, schmetails.

She kept going, laying it on thick: “What it means to have law and order in this country is that you follow the order and you go through the appeals process even if you dislike what the judge did,” she along with her mega-lashes declared, before flouncing back to her seat. 

Noble words—too bad they’re dripping with irony, given her own track record.

Crockett, like her fellow Democrats and their media parrots, leaned hard into the tired line that Republicans just want to axe federal judges over rulings they “don’t like.” Never mind that the actual beef is about alleged abuses of power—nah, that’s too complicated for the narrative.

Enter Issa, stage right, with the mic drop. 

Issa casually pointed out that when Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) cooked up her impeachment articles against conservative Supreme Court heavyweights Alito and Thomas, Crockett was right there with pom-poms, co-sponsoring the whole circus. “It does seem interesting that when the shoe is on the other foot, everyone is self-righteous!” Issa quipped, before moving on like a boss.

And there you have it, guys—another day, another Democrat caught in the hypocrisy spin cycle. Gag me with a spoon.

"I pour my heart into these posts, and if they’ve sparked something for you, I’d be thrilled if you’d treat me to a coffee over at Buy Me a Coffee – totally optional, of course!"

The Independent deletes hit piece on Ron DeSantis and Clarence Thomas after story debunked

Once a story is out there in the public it's rare that those who read it will also read the retraction when the story is proven false. This is likely the case with The Independent.

The mainstream outlet had to delete an article Friday that falsely claimed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R, of course) met with Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas (Conservative, of course) the day prior to SCOTUS overturning Roe v. Wade.

The article by leftist Eric Garcia read:

“A series of emails show Mr Thomas’s assistant corresponding with Diane Moulton on Mr DeSantis’s staff about setting up a lunch with Mr Thomas and four of his clerks. Ultimately, they decided to dine at the Supreme Court in the the Natalie Rehnquist Dining Room. On 24 June, the day after the luncheon, the court handed down its decision for Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned the 1973 decision which enshrined the right to seek an abortion.”

However, Garcia did not bother to check the dates on the emails, which showed the back-and-forth exchanges occurred in 2021, not this year. 

Checking relevant dates and facts is a process known as journalism.

DeSantis Deputy Press Secretary Jeremy Redfern called Garcia out on Twitter: 

Hey @EricMGarcia from the @Independent,

Is June 23th, 2021 a day before June 24th, 2022? pic.twitter.com/VuvwsljSSD

— Jeremy Redfern (@JeremyRedfernFL)

Garcia, with his tail between his legs responded.

“I am legitimately so sorry. I was not trying to mislead. I am legitimately embarrassed and humiliated. I never wanted to do anything malicious. I am so apologetic. I should have double-checked the dates.”

He went on: “We are taking the article down. I cannot apologize enough. I should have double-checked triple-checked dates. I am mortified and legitimately embarrassed. I want to thank @JeremyRedfernFL for flagging. And apologize to Governor DeSantis and Justice Thomas. This is a horrible error on my part.”

“The story is in the process of being retracted. I am just embarrassed as hell,” he concluded. “Words cannot describe how mortified I am. I try to be honest in my work. I don’t try to do gotcha journalism. I always hated that. I can never apologize enough.”

DeSantis campaign Rapid Response Director Christina Pushaw responded to Garcia’s report by writing: “And the implication is that Governor DeSantis, of all people, would try to pressure Clarence Thomas to change the outcome of a SCOTUS decision.”

“Which is patently absurd to anyone who has followed Governor DeSantis or Clarence Thomas for any amount of time,” she added.

Anyone can make a mistake, but Garcia needs to write a full retraction for the Independent because who knows if his readers saw his groveling? Otherwise, Garcia is a fraud.

Democrat Lori Lightfoot yells "F" word about Clarence Thomas

Chicago's Democratic Mayor Lori "Brain Eating" Lightfoot was her own float at the Saturday pride parade and used vulgar language in front of parade attendees, yelling "Fuck Clarence Thomas!" It's probable that she didn't mean it literally as she is an openly lesbian ugly person, but she was clearly upset with Justice Thomas for being part of the SCOTUS who ended the Roe v. Wade decision. And while Lightfoot will probably never get impregnated by a man directly, as she is a lesbian, she wants women the right to kill their unborn baby in every state of the union, rather than having to be inconvenienced.

"Eww, she said a bad word," said little Lisa Culpepper, 5, who was coerced into attending the parade to make her parents look woke among their friends.

It’s unknown to whom or what Lightfoot was exactly responding, but the mayor was in mid-speech about the Supreme Court’s ruling on abortion.

Lightfoot began speaking to the crowd of LGBTQ+1XYZ~&4 hedonists. “So we know what happened in the Supreme Court yesterday. If you read Clarence Thomas’ concurrence, he said . . .  ” Lightfoot began, then someone in the crowd shouted something to which the Mayor, who some refer to as Beetlejuice, responded, “Thank you. Fuck Clarence Thomas!”

She is such a breath of fresh air, if by fresh air you mean cabbage farts at the manure spreader.

“He thinks that we are going to stand idly by while they take our rights: our right to marry, our right to have children, our right to live!” Lightfoot added, either lying or showing her ignorance as to what the decision actually covers.

Meanwhile, Chicago, the city of which she is mayor, saw 52 people shot and at least 4 were killed over the weekend, according to authorities. I guess if you're okay with killing the unborn, what's the big deal if others die too.

Beetlejuice had earlier tweeted:

To my friends in the LGBTQ+ community—the Supreme Court is coming for us next. This moment has to be a call to arms.

— Lori Lightfoot (@LoriLightfoot) May 10, 2022

Her call to arms preceded no less than 23 pro-life organizations being vandalized throughout the nation, according to Catholic Vote. Compare that to what former President Trump said on Jan. 6, 2021 when he called for a peaceful protest.

Racist Dem. in GA: 'I'd rather them keep a Confederate monument than a statue of Clarence Thomas'

Ever since the Civil War and inception of the KKK, Democrats have held a long history of racism against Black people. They would like you to believe the opposite is true, but they're just blowing smoke up your keesters. 

State Repulsive Rep. Donna McLeod, a Democrat, is quoted as saying: “I’d rather them keep a Confederate monument than a statue of Clarence Thomas. That’s how much I don’t like the idea.” 

She made the racist comment to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution in an article about Georgia Republicans pushing for a statue of Justice Thomas, a Georgia native and only the second Black Supreme Court Justice. [H/T Daily Wire]

She "don't cotton to that kinda man, no how," [said in a voice sounding remarkably like Hillary Clinton].

McLeod was one of several Democrats who claim to be fighting the statue because they believe it insults a liar named Anita Hill. It turns out Hill falsely accused Justice Thomas of sexual harassment during his 1991 confirmation hearings and she was eventually caught in the lie after numerous contradictions proved she was full of beans.

Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist reported in 2019, that the “widely watched hearings revealed inaccuracies in Hill’s various versions of events and ended with 58 percent of Americans believing Thomas and only 24 percent believing Hill.” 

The poll showed no gap between the sexes when it came to believing Thomas or Hill.

Years after the hearings, the Left tried to change the narrative. Hemingway explained that, “[i]n the intervening years, activists have relentlessly attempted to change the narrative, writing fan fiction about Hill, bestowing honors on her, and asserting that her disputed allegations were credible,” Hemingway wrote.

Hill was caught in lies when then-Sen. Arlen Specter asked her during testimony about witnesses reporting that she repeatedly praised Thomas when he was nominated to the Supreme Court, including a former colleague of her and Thomas' who worked with them at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Although she denied this, the claim was corroborated. She also denied praising Thomas to the former dean of her law school, which was also corroborated.

Hill also claimed during her testimony that she didn’t know Phyllis Barry, who told The New York Times that Hill accused Thomas of sexual harassment because she was “disappoint[ed] and frustrat[ed] that Mr. Thomas did not show any sexual interest in her.”

When Specter presented Hill was statements saying she knew Barry, she was forced to admit that she knew the woman and had worked with her.

The list of lies goes on.

Specter’s last questions regarded a charge from USA Today that said Hill was told her name would not be made public but that her allegations would be taken to Thomas in order to get him to withdraw from the nomination.

Hill refused to answer, insisting she couldn’t remember the conversation from weeks earlier, although she claimed to vividly recall things Thomas said or did to her years earlier. This is known as convenient memory, or self-serving memory, of Leftist lies.

Then-Senator Joe Biden, reportedly told Specter after his questioning that it was clear Hill “was lying.” This may have been the only time in his career that he spoke the truth. However, Biden has since tried to claim he always believed Hill, and Democrats have painted her as a victim despite evidence to the contrary, which, of course, is just another Biden lie.

Donna McLeod is no different than the other racists on the Left who continuously treat Black people as if they are inferior by demanding the social and academic standards set for Whites and Asians, not be as high for them. 

And to call Republicans racist is just a form of projection.
