Fauci's Pandemic Memoirs Read Like a Hollywood Audition With a Side of Public Health

While Americans were wiping down groceries, homeschooling kids, closing businesses, canceling funerals, and wondering whether standing six feet apart from grandma was enough to survive the apocalypse, Dr. Anthony Fauci apparently had another pressing concern.

His fan mail.

Newly released private diary entries, published ahead of Fauci's Senate testimony after being subpoenaed by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), paint the portrait of a man who seemed just as fascinated by his exploding celebrity status as by the virus consuming the world.

Instead of reading like the journal of a wartime physician carrying the weight of a global pandemic, the entries tend to resemble the diary of an aspiring influencer who suddenly found himself trending.

"Press still hot and heavy about me," Fauci wrote on April 7, 2020. "Multiple stories per day directly or indirectly involving me."

What a dork.

At the time, thousands of Americans had already died, hospitals were scrambling for supplies, and families were saying goodbye to loved ones over FaceTime. Fauci, meanwhile, appeared to be tracking media mentions like they were stock prices. [Dud I mention he's a dork?]

By May, the self appreciation had only intensified.

"Big front page article abut me appeared in the Washington Post. Very flattering. The situation with my national and international fame is explosive and really unimaginable. It is not hyperbole to say that today I am the most famous and talked about person in the country and one of the most recognizable person in the world," Fauci wrote as he looked in his full-body mirror.

Not content to stop there, he added, "Countless profiles on me in multiple media. I cannot even read all the things that are written about me since I am so busy … seriously. POTUS seems to be enamored of me even though I am taking the spotlight away from him. We are developing a very unique and interesting relationship."

Look at me--I'm Mister Cool

So, while the globe is suffering from a raging pandemic, our humble servant is depicting himself as one of the most recognizable people on Earth.

The diaries also suggest Fauci viewed television appearances less as an opportunity to inform the public than as oxygen.

After complaining that White House officials were limiting his media access, he proudly recorded a conversation with then Vice President Mike Pence.

"I told him that I am being blocked from TV and I needed to get on TV to give the 'risk reduction' message and that I would avoid being pitted against him or the POTUS merely by not playing that game," Fauci wrote. "He did promise that he would get me out there on TV since he really liked my message. First time anyone ever spoke that way to VP. He truly likes me a lot (and vice versa)."

Dork.

Apparently, flattening the curve was important. Keeping Fauci off cable news was the real emergency. The people needed him; the world needs him.

At another point, Fauci admitted privately that the administration's contact tracing strategy was a "f*cking disaster and an abject failure."

Then, almost seamlessly, he noted he had been invited to appear on "Dancing With The Stars."

It's obvious that when the nation's pandemic response is collapsing, your next thought is ballroom choreography.

The celebrity obsession did not end with television.

The diaries feature a cast list worthy of the Oscars. Julia Roberts hosted him on Instagram Live, sent him flowers, and presented him with an award. Vogue editor Anna Wintour, comedian Trevor Noah, NBA star Steph Curry, actors Sean Penn and Matt Damon, rapper Lil Wayne, billionaire Larry Ellison, and numerous media personalities all wandered through Fauci's journal.

CNN's Jake Tapper appears repeatedly through calls, dinners, and text messages. Dana Bash congratulated Fauci after his exchange with Rep. Jim Jordan, even telling him that Wolf Blitzer joked nobody would have blamed him if he had told Jordan to "go f--k yourself."

When journalist Peter Nicholas suggested Fauci had been "humiliated" over a canceled CNN appearance, Fauci's diary recorded his response in two concise words.

"F--- you, Peter."

Apparently, social distancing did not apply to grudges [nor to certain state governors].

The journals also reveal Fauci becoming increasingly irritated with White House officials who threatened to reduce his television appearances. Mark Meadows allegedly argued with him over messaging, while Fauci praised communications director Alyssa Farah for helping restore his media bookings. He described Michael Caputo as "a con man who is completely full of sh-t."

His relationship with President Trump, however, began warmly. Fauci recalled Trump calling him "the smartest person in the world," telling him, "We are counting on you," and appearing "enamored" with him before the relationship later deteriorated after more information came forward.

Perhaps the most unintentionally revealing entries involve Fauci marveling that Secret Service agents no longer bothered checking his credentials because they recognized him. That made him a bit moist.

"Everyone is worried about my health and welfare, probably because it is all over the place that I am almost 80 years old," he wrote.

Some people measure success by lives saved; Fauci measured it by the number of his tv appearances and whether security waves them through the front gate by recognizing him.

The diaries conclude with yet another celebrity cameo. At the 2022 Kennedy Center Honors, Fauci hugged Hunter Biden, who joked the internet "would explode" if someone photographed them together because they were both "being attacked by the far right GOP."

One almost expects the next page to include an acceptance speech thanking his agent, his stylist, and everyone who made his rise from bureaucrat to pandemic superstar possible.

Rand Paul argues the journals reveal a public official more concerned with his personal brand than the crisis facing the country. After months of negotiations broke down, Paul subpoenaed Fauci to testify before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

"He’s been slow-walking information to us for six months or more," Paul said. "We’ve been negotiating over the date for several months. He agreed, then he said he wouldn’t. So, I think it’s time that we bring him in."

The American people spent the pandemic wondering whether the science was settled.

The diary suggests at least one thing certainly was.

Anthony Fauci never missed an opportunity to check whether the spotlight was still shining on Anthony Fauci.

What a dork!

Compromised News Network Loses 66% of Primetime Viewers

Once upon a time, in a galaxy not far away, CNN was the undisputed king of cable news. Now it's just another sad sack bleeding viewers like a stuck pig somewhere in the Middle East.

The primetime audience has cratered from roughly 1.3 million in 2016 to 553,000 now. "The decrease, from roughly 1.3 million in 2016 to 553,000 now, is fueling rumors of a possible network sale," The Daily Mail reported. 

Over the last decade, the once-mighty network has seen its primetime crowd shrink by nearly two-thirds. That's not a dip, that's a nosedive.

The numbers get even uglier when you zoom in on certain time frames. 

Sure, CNN had a nice little sugar rush during Donald Trump's 2016 ascent, but those gains eventually flipped into a full-blown catastrophe. In the golden 25-54 demo that advertisers drool over, things are downright apocalyptic. By early 2025, CNN was scraping by with a pathetic 118,000 primetime viewers in that group. That's about equivalent to an overloaded train in India.

The rot isn't confined to the evening hours either. Daytime viewing, once carried by reliable old hands like Wolf . . . Gasp . . . Blitzer, has plunged from 752,000 to 433,000. Compared to the same stretch in 2021, primetime is down 71 percent and daytime has tanked 73 percent.

All this glorious free-fall has unfolded amid a parade of executive musical chairs. 

Jeff Zucker bolted, Chris Licht's short reign was a dumpster fire, and now Mark Thompson is the guy trying to apply tourniquets. His big plan? Ditch the old-school TV roots and go all-in on digital, because apparently that's where the cool kids are these days.

The restructuring highlights include axing more than 200 staffers in early 2025 to fund the digital dreams, chasing mobile content that lets thumb-scrollers "flick" through stories like they're swiping on Tinder, launching a new streaming effort in late 2025 after the CNN+ fiasco proved what a genius idea that was the first time around, and somehow finding $70 million to throw at subscription food and fitness slop.

CNN lifers keep insisting this is just part of some grand industry migration to "alternative means" of getting news. Sure, tell that to the competition. 

In January 2025, The Daily Mail noted, "Fox News, however, has continued to fly high, capturing more than 70 percent of cable news’ audiences during primetime since (the 2024 election), as well as nearly 50 percent overall."

Trump labels Mahmoud Khalil 'a terrorist sympathizer' as he refuses to condemn Hamas

Here we go again with the left’s favorite game: defend the indefensible. 

Mahmoud Khalil, the guy the Trump administration rightly wanted to deport, sparked a tantrum from campus snowflakes and their media cheerleaders. The scumcrumpet simply couldn’t bring himself to condemn Hamas during a Comedy News Network (CNN) interview. 

The Department of Homeland Security didn’t mince words, slamming him with, "Mahmoud Khalil refuses to condemn Hamas because he IS a terrorist sympathizer not because DHS 'painted’ him as one." Boom! Truth bomb dropped.

Khalil, who’s now whining for a $20 million payday from the Trump administration, got the kid-glove treatment from CNN's dynamic duo, Wolf 'take-a-breath' Blitzer and Pamela Brown. Brown, showing her bias like a neon sign, parroted some United Nations Special Committee balderdash claiming Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, in spite of the lengths the IDF goes to undertake targeted attacks. In fact, historically, Israel has the lowest percentage of innocent-to-combatants' death ratio.

Blitzer, not to be outdone, cherry-picked a clip of Khalil mouthing off against anti-Semitism, while Brown cooed, "You’ve consistently condemned anti-Semitism before and since your arrest." 

What did these two dhimmi leftists conveniently ignore? Khalil’s starring role leading Columbia University undergrads in a love fest for Hamas after its October 7, 2023, slaughter. 

Jewish News Syndicate (JNS) laid it bare: "He served as the negotiator on behalf of the occupying students with the university, pressuring the administration to accommodate student demands based on their illegal activity. He helped organize an illegal encampment on the campus that denied access to ‘Zionist’ students." That’s right, this piece of human excrement was orchestrating a pro-Hamas circus, bullying Jews and breaking rules, all while hiding behind "free speech."

When Brown tried to pin him down, asking, "Do you specifically condemn Hamas, a designated terrorist organization in the United States, not just for their actions on October 7," Khalil did what every terrorist apologist does: he dodged. "I condemn the killing of all civilians, full stop," he said. Then he pivoted to, "But what I don’t want to get into is, no. I am clear with condemning all civilians. I’m very straight in my position in that part. But it's disingenuous to ask about condemning Hamas while Palestinians are the ones being starved now by Israel."

The only reason Gazans are starving, if true, is because Hamas is confiscated the food supplies. Israel has sent thousands of tons of food to Gaza only to have it confiscated by the Hamassholes.

Brown pushed back, saying, "It is fair to ask you about whether you can condemn Hamas because the Trump administration has claimed that you are a Hamas sympathizer. So, it’s very important to actually ask that question in this broad conversation." 

But Khalil, true to form, weaseled out again: "Yes. I simply asked and protested the war in Palestine. That's what I did. That's my duty as a Palestinian, as a human being right now, is to ask for the stop of the killing in my home country. And that's consistent with who I am. I’m a firm believer in international law and human rights and all my values come from that. … And that’s why I wouldn’t really engage in much into such questions on condemnation or not, because selective condemnation is not—wouldn’t get us anywhere." As Greta Thunberg famously said: Blah, blah, blah. 

Human rights? Tell that to the Jews he harassed.

DHS wasn't having it, and they came out swinging: "Mahmoud Khalil refuses to condemn Hamas because he IS a terrorist sympathizer not because DHS ‘painted’ him as one. He ‘branded’ himself as an anti-Semite through his own hateful behavior and rhetoric. It is a privilege to be granted a visa or green card to live and study in the United States of America. The Trump Administration acted well within its statutory and constitutional authority to detain Khalil, as it does with any alien who advocates for violence, glorifies and supports terrorists, harasses Jews, and damages property." 

Mic drop. That’s how you call out a terrorist fanboy playing the victim card.

Khalil’s not a martyr, guys. He’s a dickwad who got caught cheering for the bad guys and now wants a jackpot for his troubles. The left can cry all they want, but actions have consequences. Maybe next time, he’ll think twice before cozying up to Hamas . . . but I doubt it.

Comedy News Network (CNN) will be chopping off top names as ratings go down the toilet

CNN staff whose names are not on the tip of tongues

Long ago in a country far, far away from where it is now, a cable tv network was considered the go-to station for news you could trust. But things have changed and most people know that the cable network in question, CNN, is no longer a trusted name in news and seems to be going the way of another once upon a time news outlet, The New York Times. 

Big changes are down the road over at CNN, as the ratings have gone down deeper than Lia Thomas diving for his pearls. The company can't even compete with Fox News or even the execrable MSNBC.

What happened, you ask. Well, when CNN went ballistic on conservatives to the extent they recently have, especially when Trump was President, the decline began.

They initially blamed CEO Chris Licht for the circling of the bowl. It's like a sports team that was once great and now sucks--they blame the coach even though he had brought them to a championship in the past. The coach didn't suddenly become suckworthy--it's the players who did. 

With Licht gone, the new guy on board is known for cutting the fat off the cash cow. That could mean the big budget personnel, like pretentious Anderson Cooper, who rakes in $20,000,000 annually, could become CNN history, like Donald Le'mon and Brian Stelter.

According to a new report, many of the network's big "stars" as mentioned, could face large pay cuts or the chopping block.

The new CEO Mark Thompson is the guy with the butcher knife and is likely to use it before it's too late to salvage the network. Other names like Chris Wallace, Jake Tapper, and Wolf "take-a-breath" Blitzer may become CNN history, according to a source who will remain anonymous, so you don't need to trust what he or she says.

“Anderson knows he’s on the chopping block because he makes a whopping $20 million a year. He’s already started looking for a new gig!” a network insider exclusively tells In Touch. “Chris Wallace takes $8 million and figures he’s a likely target, too!” Wallace, you may recall, worked for Fox News and was quite job secure in spite of his left-leanings. But he went to CNN for a new show but it failed faster than Al Sharpton yells 'racist,' and the network gave him another spot.

Insiders say other network favorites — including $15 million man Blitzer and $8 million gent Tapper – are also bracing for the boot!

The network's ratings have fallen below Hallmark and History. I suspect that with the way things are going for them, The Daily Wire's "Bentkey" series for kids is going to outpace them.

Don't believe for a minute, however, that CNN is going to shuffle over to the right anytime soon. They might, but it's doubtful. But people are getting fed up with woke "wisdom" because a) it's anti-reality; b) it's anti-capitalism, which means those who subscribe to the woke philosophy will indeed go broke.

CNN reaches new lows as viewers would rather go to the dentist

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time." Abraham Lincoln

Americans, for the most part, are not stupid, save for politicians and the woke. The result of our not being easily fooled by media bias has caused CNN [aka the Compromised News Network] to reach an abysmal viewership. 

The situation has been insidious as scandals, misogyny and worn out anti-conservative reporting has been their bread and butter, but they have reached the point where the butter is rancid and the bread is stale. The company had an historically small audience in February and things are not looking so great for the near future in spite of what David Zaslav, CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery says. He said of CNN's turnaround that "It isn't gonna happen overnight." 

That's why Zaslav makes the big bucks. 

CNN's anemic numbers in February should scare the hell out of him and the other top executives. Even their attempts of showing real news not involving their hatred of former President Donald Trump, didn't help them in the ratings game.

The worst thing for the network is that the demographic audience that tends to pull in the most money, and that's the 25 to 54 age range, is at a CNN third lowest-rated month since the start of 2001.

"Anderson Cooper 360" and "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer" had their lowest-rated months in the category since June 2014, while "The Lead with Jake Tapper" had its worst performance since July 2014, while John King's "Inside Politics" had its smallest demo audience since the summer of 2005 when Hurricane Katrina destroyed New Orleans.

To put things in perspective, a passenger train going from Delhi to Chennai, India, has more people in it and on the roof, than watches CNN. But seriously, the Food Network, TLC, TBS, USA, Fox News, A&E Comedy Central, MTV, Hallmark, FXX, and the Let's Watch Paint Drying Network, had better ratings.

Susan Rice believes the rioting is out of the Russian "playbooks"

Former Obama adviser Susan "It Was The Video" Rice blames the violent rioting on the Russians, or some "foreign actors," but insisted that the Russians might be involved with stirring up the chamber pot.

“I’m not reading the intelligence today, or these days—but based on my experience, this is right out of the Russian playbook,” the woman who went on all the Sunday talk shows to lie about the Benghazi attack, blaming on a video watched by a few hundred bored individuals.

Rice, who incompetently served as national security adviser to president Barack Hussein Obama, said this in a Compromised News Network (CNN) interview on Sunday, with Wolf "I Can Hardly Breathe" Blitzer. “But we cannot allow the extremists, the foreign actors, to distract from the real problems we have in this country that are longstanding, centuries old, and need to be addressed responsibly.”

It is unclear whether Rice had smoked a spliff before entering the interview but she sounded like she might have done a few deep tokes.

Saagar Enjeti of "Rising" a news show, tweeted about Rice's hallucination:

Absolutely Incredible: Obama's Former NSA Susan Rice on CNN talking about the protests and domestic strife
"This is right out of the Russian playbook" pic.twitter.com/luXiPV0bOq
— Saagar Enjeti (@esaagar)

Blitzer, who anchors the show responded, “you’re [puff] absolutely right on the foreign interference.” and then breathlessly asked Rice if she thought the Russians were attempting to “embarrass” the U.S. by “promoting the racial divide in our country.”

“Well we see it all the time, we’ve seen it for years, including on social media where they take any divisive, painful issue…and they play on both sides,” the dolt said. “I would not be surprised to learn that they have fomented some of these extremists on both sides on social media…[or] that they’re funding it in some way, shape, or form.”

Meanwhile, current National Security Adviser Robert O’Brien on Sunday pointed to a number of countries that were trying to instigate unrest via social media. The main country is China, but he also mentioned Russia, Iran, and Zimbabwe as possibly trying to enflame tensions through social media.

Pressed by former Obama leftist adviser  @GStephanopoulos about evidence that foreign adversaries are exploiting U.S. unrest, O’Brien pointed to social media activity from China “coming straight from the government.”

The pretense for the riots, as opposed to peaceful protests, was initiated by the death of George Floyd during his arrest on May 25 by former officer Derek Chauvin of the Minneapolis PD. Chauvin has been charged with murder 3 and sits in jail awaiting trial. 

The looting, burning of police vehicles, buildings, banks and small businesses, along with several deaths, were done in the honor of Floyd's memory, if you believe that crap.

Ilhan Omar calls Jews cheap--media rushes to explain what she really meant

The following is satire.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) spoke at a Hamas fundraiser Monday. The event is sponsored by CAIR [aka Center for American-Islamic Relations] an organization known for allegedly helping Muslims with legal and jihad-ish matters.

"I want to thank CAIR and all of its affiliates along with my Muslim brothers and sisters for making this event possible," Omar began. "The subject I plan to speak about tonight is Israel and how they've been a thorn in the side of Hamas for years.

"As you know, Israel's biggest problem isn't Israel; it's the Jews who live there and their refusal to allow you wonderful Muslims to take back the land Allah promised you. But, Inshallah, it will happen one day and I know that I will live to see that day, Inshallah.

"The reason the Jews refuse to give back Israel to its rightful owners is because, like their refusal to give up a single penny . . . a single little penny . . .  they refuse to give up even an square meter of your land. Yes, even after gifting the Jews a bunch of Qassam, Quds and WS-1E rockets which they ungratefully blew up before receiving them, they stubbornly refuse to leave. This is because they are, like everyone knows, cheap, cheap, cheap. And they must be forced into the sea so Palestine can be free!"

The Hamas and CAIR members stood up and vociferously applauded her as they shouted "Allahu akbar" many times over.

Naturally, as predicted, Omar's speech upset white people on the right and they took to Twitter to pounce on the poor woman.

One person tweeted:

You diss Israel, our only ally in the Middle East, and praise a terrorist organization at an event sponsored by another terrorist-supporting organization. You are a disgrace to my country and you should get on your camel and leave. --@10-S-NE-1

Another tweeted:

Hey @IlhanMN, what does your husband-brother have to say about this? Oh wait, you divorced him so maybe you're not on speaking terms. Maybe ask mom-he might have spoken to her --@TrumpWonULostLOLHahaha

The Comedy News Network (CNN) immediately came to Omar's defense.

Wolf Blitzer, who happens to be somewhat Jewish, said in the breathless way he has of speaking: "Minnesota congresswoman Ilhan . . . Omar was verbally assaulted by far-Right Republicans, attacking her for simply stating . . . her thoughts about Israel and the people who . . . live there. When she referred to Jews as . . . cheap, she was merely using the old stereotype as a way of express . . . ing her frustration with Israel's occupation, as they refuse to make concessions and give the Palestinian Authority back their . . . land."

Unable to inhale enough oxygen, Blitzer got dizzy and remained seated for the remainder of the propaganda broadcast.

Omar's bestie, Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-IL) took to Twitter to also come to her defense.

Hey a**holes in Twitterland, don't you be hitting your s**t here on my sister Ilhan or be prepared to be outed and banned by @Jack. Be warned mother****ers.

So far, President Trump has not tweeted in on the conversation, but the irony that Israel has named a settlement after him, and that he kept his promise to consider Jerusalem the capital of Israel in spite of other presidents promising and not delivering, while the left calls him an anti-Semite, should not be lost on us.

Jim Acosta calls Trump names and mocks Sarah Sanders because he's fairly unbalanced

"Oh my love, my darling, I hunger for my touch"

Dear Diary,

The Comedy News Network's chief White House "correspondent" Jim Acosta dropped the "F" bomb on an ex-Melania Trump staffer on Twitter. He also called our president "dishonest, deceptive" and mocked Press Secretary Sarah Sanders' briefings on Monday at a CNN event in New York.

"I wouldn't put productive and a Sarah Sanders briefing in the same sentence," Acosta said when someone asked him if it's more productive to hear from Sanders or from Trump directly.

That got everybody knee-slapping, chuckling and guffawing as Acosta briefly glanced at his reflection on a nearby window, causing him to run his fingers through his hair and give his head a manly flip.

Some people still believe that Acosta is impartial, and others think he's a journalist. He is neither--he is an opinion scribbler and wouldn't know real journalism from a child's finger painting.

Acosta said that Sanders typically aims to “perform for the president” in order to maintain her own job security, obviously not having a clue as to what the job is of a White House Press Secretary. Her job, like any White House Press Secretary that preceded her, is to cover for the boss.

Acosta was on stage for a discussion moderated by CNN’s breathless Wolf Blitzer and featured New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman and White House Correspondents’ Association president Olivier Knox when the man most admired by himself aired his grievances about covering the Trump administration.

“Many of us didn’t expect Trump to win and it sort of turned the beat upside down,” Acosta pontificated as he checked his manicure. “We need security wherever we go, covering these rallies… you are under attack by the press office of the White House... you sort of have to rise above that and keep plowing through and do your job."

What a freaking hero he is--just ask him.

Trump has correctly called CNN “fake news” and pointed directly at Acosta who is obviously not the world's most honest reporter.

Acosta said he’s been told by many others that Trump’s persona is simply an “act,” and that his supporters don’t realize that when the president refers to news organizations as “fake news” it is simply part of his “shtick.”

But even if it's his "shtick," he's correct. Jim Acosta is not a reporter, he's an opinion guy, and that's what seems to be happening to most of the mainstream media.

“They think he’s deadly serious so they take up the cause and they come after us,” Acosta said. “The United States of America is supposed to be the standard bearer for democratic values all over the world. For the president of the United States to go around calling us ‘fake news’ and the ‘enemy of the people,’ to me, I don’t understand why this is even a debate or a discussion for journalists. It’s just wrong.”

Except that 92 percent of the news about Trump is negative. That's ridiculous, even if you don't agree with his policies or his personality. Let's face it, Trump is by no means a perfect individual but he clearly has gotten some good things done for the country.

Last week, Acosta apologized for saying ‘f-ck you” to a former Melania Trump staffer in a private Twitter message after the chief White House correspondent was widely criticized for the vulgar attack.

Acosta took the opportunity to poke fun at the situation on stage Monday when Blitzer began to speak, took a long, deep breath, then asked how he was doing.

“Occasionally you send a DM and everybody overreacts,” Acosta said trying to minimize his vulgar tweet. Twitter lit up against him.

Acosta, acting as a loudmouth creep, has made a habit of shouting and interrupting when Trump and members of his administration are available to the media.

Maybe it's time to insist CNN find someone who isn't Acosta and who is an actual journalist, but I don't believe they have anyone with those credentials.

CNN says Barcelona attack may be "copycat" of Charlottesville

CNN doesn't see the connection between scores of vehicular jihad attacks, like the ones by London Bridge, Berlin, Jerusalem, Nice, Ohio State University and the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, and the one that occurred yesterday in Barcelona. 

Even the shouts of "Allahu akbar!" by the attackers didn't add up for them. Who do they think they are shouting like that?

They didn't even think there was any connection when Islamic jihad leaders instructed their mentally ill flock to wage jihad by mowing down people in Western nations with cars, trucks and vans and people in Western nations were getting mowed down by cars, trucks and vans by crazed Muslims willing to die for their jihad.

Where's the connection, CNN wondered.

Aha! The connection is Charlottesville, Virginia, CNN figured.

Hmm, let's see . . . a car driven by a white supremacist drove into a crowd of people protesting white supremacists, so the vans in Spain are plainly connected, perhaps.

And you wonder why people call this media toilet "Fake News."

They're freaking crazy and anyone who takes them seriously needs to have their head examined.

CNN's Wolf "Catchyerbreath" Blitzer speculated that the Barcelona terror attack might be a "copycat" of the Charlottesville attack.

"There will be questions about copycats [by idiots looking to make the case]. Questions in Barcelona, was at all, at all, a copycat version of what happened in Charlottesville, Virginia," the moron Blitzer said breathlessly.

"Even though they may be different characters [yes, Muslims versus infidels] and different political ambitions [white supremacy versus a freaking world caliphate], they use the same killing device. A vehicle going at high speed at a group, a large group, of pedestrians."

So anyone who mows anyone down a group of perfect strangers while shouting "Allahu akbar!" is a Charlottesville copycat.

How do their sponsors even consider supporting this crapola?

Some differences:

In Charlottesville, a white supremacist ran over a group of counter-protesters and killed a woman. In Barcelona, a van injured over a hundred people, killing at least 13 pedestrians just out for the evening for fun.

One of the first such attacks occurred in Jerusalem, Israel in 2015. A Palestinian Muslim drove his car straight into a crowded bus stop. 

The following year in Nice, an Islamic terrorist drove a truck through a crowded boardwalk during Bastille Day and killed nearly 100 people.

In December 2016, an Islamic jihadi drove a truck through a crowded Christmas market in Berlin. He killed 12 people. ISIS has encouraged the use of speeding vehicles to terrorize the world as early as 2015 and inspired no less than three major attacks in the latter half of 2016. 

Wherein lies CNN's confusion as to the motivation of the Barcelona attack? But let's face it--they aren't confused at all--it's willful ignorance.

CNN must stand for 'Crap Not News.' And they're dangerous.

9 Reasons Why the Iran Nuclear Deal Sucks

President Obama wanted the nuclear deal with Iran more than a crack addict who voted for him wanted another "hit."

So while Russia, China, Iran and Barack do a victory dance, something smells in Denmark. In fact, just by virtue of who is actually doing the victory dance, this should tell you a lot about what this deal really does for Iran and to the USA and our ally Israel. Without a doubt, it will make Iran a stronger terrorist nation and significantly lessen our security in the West.

Let's look at why the deal sucks:

1. It boosts Iran's economy by lifting sanctions that have crippled the terror state's ability to fund other terrorist states and organizations such as Hezbollah, Assad's Syria, and the Iraqi militias. It also makes it easier for Iran to get their wish for the destruction of Israel and the death to all Jews as prescribed in the Koran. The deal will provide the Shi'ite state with $150 billion in revenue that will likely go to fund terror and build the best nuclear bomb delivery systems money can buy.

2. It prohibits nuclear site inspections by United States inspectors and the "anytime, anywhere" Obama administration claims to how these inspections will be carried out, it a lie. In fact, Iran can block access to inspectors to any undeclared nuclear site, and the only thing that would prevent these puss-bags from building a bomb on one of these sites would be a change of heart by the Iranians who still chant "Death to America, death to Israel." Once denied, the reason for denial is adjudicated by a committee which Iran also sits on. Next it goes through several other processes, also sat on by Iran. It can take up to 24 days before permission to inspect is granted, and by that time, "the coast is clear."

What are the chances of Iran developing a secret bomb?

3. The chanting "Death to America" has not stopped, so what makes anyone believe that the development of a nuclear bomb has stopped? The ayatollah has stated quite clearly that nothing has changed. America is still the enemy and they will continue to support the same terrorists they supported when this all began and John Kerry was being insulted and screamed at in Vienna.

"Eight, nine, ten. See? I can do it."

4. Obama's sidekick, Susan Rice, admitted to CNN's Wolf Blitzer that we can expect some of the money Iran will receive will be spent on funding terrorism and their military. 

"Yes, it is real, it is possible, and, in fact, we should expect that some portion of that money would go to the Iranian military and could potentially be used for the kinds of bad behavior that we have seen in the region up until now," the half-witted Susan Rice said.

Why is that possibility acceptable? Oh, right, Obama's girls will never have to serve in the military and his family is well-protected against any sort of attack. And Valerie Jarrett might just have an "in" in Iran. No worries, Mr. President.

Or else Barack Hussein Obama is so naive, he believes his own crap.

5. The releasing of American hostages was "off the table" for this deal. Why? Because our Secretary of State and the Obama administration doesn't have the balls to demand their release--or no deal. Like I said, Obama wanted this deal more than a crack addict wants his next hit.

Three men, the Christian missionary Saeed Abedini, our U.S. Marine Amir Hekmati, 
and Washington Post journalist, Jason Rezaian are being held in Iran and Obama-Kerry have been impotent to obtain their release. Robert Levinson, a former FBI and DEA agent, has been held hostage for over 8 years and his current whereabouts and situation are not known.

Just because Iran wants this issue "off the table" is no reason to obey them. I wouldn't have been surprised to see photos of Kerry with a leather obedience S&M collar being held by Javad Zarif, Iran's negotiator.

Sarah Shourd, a former Iranian hostage makes a good case for having included the hostage release as part of the nuclear deal.

6. Almost 80 percent of Americans think the nuclear deal with Iran sucks. We believe that lifting the sanctions was a bad idea according to an AP poll, which showed 77% of us believe sanctions should be kept or increased, certainly not lifted as this crappy deal spells out.

Relying on his ability to baffle with his bull, Obama is now on a two-month long campaign (as the legislative body has 60 to review this bad deal) to build support for his crappy deal. I suspect he will appear on The Daily Show and other late night spots to make his appeal to his base. Maybe, if we're lucky, he'll sing the blues in falsetto.

The Congress will begin the review process of this deal on Monday. Let us all hope they firmly reject it with a super-majority.

7. This deal will do nothing to stop China and Putin to supply the terrorist state of Iran with weapons to kill Americans and Israelis. 

Sergey Lavrov (Russia's Foreign Minister and the guy who was gifted with Hillary's "reset" button that really said "overcharged") confirmed that "weapons supplies will be possible" without impunity under this crappy deal. "Russia and China will continue to make weapons deals with Iran under U.N. procedures."

Fox News' Charles Krauthammer said about this issue that "the net effect of this capitulation will be not only to endanger our Middle East allies now under threat from Iran and its proxies, but to endanger our own naval forces in the Persian Gulf. Imagine how Iran's acquisition of the most advanced anti-ship missiles would threaten our control over the Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, waterways we have kept open for international commerce for a half century."

8. Israel is thrown under the bus at the end of the day as Obama kicks the can down the road. 

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged the U.S. lawmakers to hold out for a better deal adding that there is no way the U.S. can compensate Israel if the deal goes through. He believes the deal only delays Iran's ability to develop nuclear weapons.

Obama is betting his nation and ours that he's wrong.

"Everybody talks about compensating Israel," Bibi said on ABC. "If this deal is supposed to make Israel and our Arab neighbors safer, why should we be compensated with anything?"

9. Finally, if Iran was using its Uranium enrichment facilities for peaceful purposes, why were they built with military-type structures underground? 

Basically, he's a schmuck

Iran has never told the truth about anything they were planning to do militarily. Their promises with this deal is merely what is known by Islam as "taqiyya," or lying in service of furthering Islam.

Picture this: the USA is a big, green frog, and Iran is a dark, slimy scorpion. We are trusting the scorpion to carry us across the pond.

Obama is counting on "the stupidity of the American voter," as Jonathan Gruber pointed out regarding the passage of Obamacare. 

Of course, Gruber was talking about the voters who believed his lies--we refer to them as "liberals."

MSM and Kitty Chow

Two One Percenters on Vaca

The press are sissies. They should be eating Purina Pussy Chow and lapping milk out of a bowl. Obama goes on a 3 day golf tour with the One Percenter, Tiger-I-Screw-Around-With-Pornstars-Woods, refuses to allow the White House press to cover his time with the slutster, and on the trip home in Air Force One, only allows the press to talk with him "off the record." That is absolutely disgusting.

And here we have the press writing reams on Marco Rubio and his water bottle incident. Wolf-I-Cannot-Finish-a-Sentence-Without-a-Pause-Blitzer wonders if the water incident will "ruin" his career. Holy crap! What garbage. The leftstream media has failed to cover Benghazi, failed to cover Fast and Furious to any serious extent, and went batcrap crazy with Rubio. Why? Because they're Obama lapdogs.

I don't usually rant, but this time I'll make  an exception.

We are living in a time where the country is divided--Obama has succeeded in cleaving us down the middle. Not by the have's and have nots, but by the supporters and non-supporters of his administration. I cite Facebook as an example--they are being given tax breaks they don't deserve and I think this is unconscionable. 

But somehow liberals will find a way to argue against logic and come up with a reason that has something to do with George Bush or some Republican who doesn't represent real conservative values. They think if a Republican screws up, it gives them license to also screw up.

Finally, I worry that Homeland Insecurity has purchased millions of rounds of ammunition "for training purposes." Somehow I suspect Chris Matthews isn't going to bring this to the table--he's too busy dealing with his tingles.
