Leftist activists [aka media, Democrats] edit clip of POTUS calling MS-13 gangbangers 'animals'

Seriously, there really should be a law preventing political parties from deceptively editing out the true meaning of their opponent's message.

Democrats, fake news "journalists," and far-left activists [there I go being redundant] have used a deceptively edited video clip from last year to depict President Trump as a heartless xenophobe. The clip showed Trump calling immigrants and asylum seekers "animals," when, in fact, he was referring to members of the notoriously disgustingly violent animals of the MS-13 street gang.

Mark Elliott, a Twitter user, posted the following tweet on Friday with the caption: "[email protected] on people asking for asylum 'These aren't people. These are animals.'" It conveniently left out the context of who the President was referring to.

Elliott embedded the video from a CSPAN tweet.

CNN, believe it or not, was one of the few news organizations that accurately reported the full context of what Trump said when he made the remarks. Here is the relevant part of the transcript:

Sheriff Margaret Mims: "There could be an MS-13 member I know about — if they don’t reach a certain threshold, I cannot tell ICE about it."

President Donald Trump: "We have people coming into the country, or trying to come in — and we’re stopping a lot of them — but we’re taking people out of the country. You wouldn’t believe how bad these people are. These aren’t people. These are animals. And we’re taking them out of the country at a level and at a rate that’s never happened before. And because of the weak laws, they come in fast, we get them, we release them, we get them again, we bring them out. It’s crazy."

Here a few of the Democrat politicians, far-left activists, and people in the media who have peddled this lie since Friday:

Democrat presidential candidate Kirsten Gillibrand: "Racist language like this has led to violence throughout the world’s history. No human being is an animal. We have to be better than this." Then she ate a spider.

Democrat presidential candidate Pete [pronounced 'Butter Judge']: "You do not refer to human beings as animals. You just don’t." Pete refers to humans as 'vegetables' when he disagrees with them.

DNC Chairman Tom "Potty Mouth" Perez: "This type of dehumanizing language is dangerous, and against everything we stand for as a country." Then he said a word meaning excrement.

Far-left activist and national twerp David Hogg who got his fame by the shooting deaths of his classmates: "Step two on the pyramid of committing genocide: Dehumanization."

CNN's Ana Navarro: "This is journalist, @TifaniRoberts comforting a small boy on the border. He was shot in the throat by Ortega’s thugs in Nicaragua. This little boy is seeking asylum in the United States. His name is William. Trump calls him 'animal'."

Christine Teigen: "f***ing vile man." Yes, but you're not vile Christine--you're a classy chick.

MSNBC's Joy "The Homophobe" Reid: "Asylum seekers 'aren't people.' They are 'animals.' This is particularly frightening language coming out of a person vested with the power of a presidential office."

Mikel Jollett, frontman of the band The Airborne Toxic Effect: "The President of the United States literally saying immigrants aren’t 'human.' This is the literal definition of the 'dehumanization' which precedes genocide." Kind of what MS-13 practices in smaller doses.

Sherrilyn Ifill President and Director-Counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund: "This is so irresponsible and dangerous. We have seen this around the world." Except you either didn't really watch the video or you're an irresponsible liar.

Democrat Rep. Yvette D. Clarke (NY): "This is appalling. This is cruel. This is dehumanizing. This is racist. This is un-American. This is Donald J. Trump." This is bull crap.

Democrat Rep. TJ Cox (CA): "Immigrants aren’t animals. Children aren’t animals. And they don’t deserve to be locked in cages, separated from their families." It was Obama who initially put the children in cages.

Democrat Rep. Chrissy "Hot Lips" Houlahan (PA): "My father, who was welcomed by this country after surviving the Holocaust, is not an animal. The people seeking refuge and asylum in America like he did are not animals. Smart and effective border security does not involve denigrating our fellow humans. Full stop."

New York Times columnist Wajahat Ali: "Glad it's out in the open. Dehumanization. It always begins with language. Soon they will be rats and rodents and a horde. And what do we do to those animals when they 'invade' our homes?...."

Glad it's out in the open how the dishonesty of the media is being exposed. But it isn't enough that the conservative media is doing this because the left may never see it. Example: I spoke to my liberal sister a few days ago to wish her a happy birthday. I asked her what she thought about Democrats supporting late-term abortion and in some cases, abortion right up to birth and even after delivery. She said, "That's not true."

She didn't believe me!

So I researched the latest news on this issue and emailed it to her. She soon responded that it was a video from Fox News and that she wouldn't even open it because they're so opinionated.

Do you see the screaming irony?

I told her that it was video with Democrats actually voicing their opinions about late term abortion, but still, she didn't want to watch it because it was from Fox News.

What have we learned? That the Democrats will take a video and only show what they want you to see, but will not look at a video that might challenge "their truth" with "the truth."

Newsweek does an "Onion" spoof

Newsweek magazine may be sued by The Onion for an article they published by an alleged Harvard Law School professor who goes by the name Lawrence Lessig, an actual Harvard Law School professor. 

The Onion-like spoof suggests a scenario whereby Hillary Clinton could still become president.

Harvard professor, Newsweek mocked for claims Clinton can still become president, even though she was never voted into that office after being embarrassed by losing to Donald J. Trump.

The real Lawrence Lessig is a Roy L. Furman professor of law and leadership at Harvard Law School. This person [it could be a man or woman, we don't really know] outlined a fantasy in which Clinton could steal the reins of power in the event of a series of impeachments of the Trump administration.

The Onion, normally a smiley-faced satirical newspaper, was livid by the spoof.

Anyway, here's what the so-called "professor" said:

If Trump resigns or gets impeached, Vice President Mike Pence resigns or gets impeached and then House Speaker Paul Ryan, who would become the next in line as POTUS, could then appoint Hillary Clinton as his deputy and then resigns, she would become the FIRST FEMALE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERRRICAAAAAA!

"This is one way that it could happen," the person calling him- or herself Lessig told Newsweek, who then printed the story. The so-called professor first envisioned this scenario in a blog post in October.

"If Ryan became President because the Trump/Pence campaign committed treason, who should he nominate as his Vice President?" he blogged. "The answer seems unavoidable: He should nominate the person defeated by the treason of his own party, and then step aside, and let her become the President."

Hahahahahahahaha.

No wonder The Onion is angry at Newsweek. They tried to pull this crap off as real. 

Nobody who is serious about political philosophy would ever believe this load of garbage, except perhaps someone who still cannot get over the loss of Hillary Clinton, the worst possible candidate who ever cackled and farted quarters, to a reality TV guy, known to have cheated on all three of his wives and said he could shoot a person on the streets of Manhattan and get away with it.

A few people on social media thought that Newsweek was being serious about this article and attacked the canary cage liner mag pointing out that the U.S. Constitution and existing laws clearly define the line of succession and Clinton's position isn't mentioned even  once.

But Newsweek had to be kidding. Nobody would take that assertion seriously, would they?

Wall Street Journal writer Byron Tau said, "What's left of Newsweek is actively making people dumber and less informed and honestly should be unfollowed and shunned for this kind of behavior."

I guess Tau just didn't get the joke. The writer of the article couldn't possibly be a real law professor.

Kerry lectures on dangers of refrigerators and ACs

Rumor has it that Secretary of State John Kerry is secretly working for The Onion a tabloid devoted to satire and humor.

The rumor started when Kerry spoke in Vienna to amend the 1987 Montreal Protocol to phase out hydrofluorocarbons, of HRFs, from appliances such as home and commercial air conditioners, refrigerators, and inhalers.

Using hyperbole, the latest verbal tactic in everyone's political arsenal, Kerry said that air conditioners and refrigerators are as big a threat to life as the threat of terrorism such as that posed by ISIS and other Islamic religious jihadists.

And Kerry should know. He has lost many close and dear friends to the ravages of refrigerators. One friend, Lucifer Langley, was beheaded by a refrigerator when, as a boy, he stuck his head in an abandoned GE left in an empty lot when another boy (John Kerry) slammed the door shut on his neck. 

The story never made the news.

Another time Mr. Kerry recalls when his high school sweetheart was mysteriously killed by a falling air conditioner. The reason it was a mystery was due to the fact that it took place by a lake where the couple had previously engaged in coitus, as Sheldon would put it.

"As we were working together on the challenge of [ISIS] and terrorism," Kerry said. "It's hard for some people to grasp it, [meaning he thinks everyone else is an idiot like the Democrats] but what we-you-are doing here right now is of equal importance because it has the ability to literally save life on the planet itself."

Proof that Kerry is either a) a complete moron; or b) a fool who thinks we think ISIS is no big deal; or c) all of the above.

"Hair-plugs" Kerry said that most of the banned substances in the Montreal Protocol have increased the use of HFCs which he claimed was thousands of times more potent than CO2. 

Kerry attended Yale and had some pretty crappy grades, particularly during his freshman year, according to Mental Floss. He earned D's in geology and two history classes, and as proof of his political acumen, ran a D in political science.

So the idea that John Kerry can even spell hydrofluorocarbons without autocorrect is questionable.

"The use of hydrofluorocarbons is unfortunately growing. Already, the HFCs use in refrigerators, air conditioners, and other items are emitting an entire gigaton of carbon dioxide-equivalent pollution into the atmosphere [which is located someplace he is still searching for] annually. Now if that sounds like a lot, my friends, [sounding like Dr. Demento] it's because it is. It's the equivalent to emissions from nearly 300 coal-fired power plants every single year [and one Iranian nuclear reactor every day]."

For a D-level science student to lecture us about how air conditioners are more dangerous than ISIS and Islamic terrorism is the definition of arrogance.

Kerry is "all hat, no brain."
