School of Lies: Eavesdropping on Obama's Organizing for Action This Election

By Rick Pearcey • October 31, 2018, 01:12 PM

Lee DeCovnick writes at American Thinker:

There is nothing like the local coffee shop near my home to hear the unvarnished truth.

Tuesday morning, I was sitting with my morning brew reading how wonderful it was that the Dodgers got slam dunked, when a group of 12 folks, mostly in their 20's, and the leader in her forties, orders and they sit across from me at a large table and hold their meeting.

They are the true believers; door bell ringers for the Democratic candidate for the California Assembly in my district.

The leader was real piece of work, white, sour faced, short hair, no makeup, black jeans and black tee, and wearing a black and white "Palestinian" keffiyeh around her neck, and carrying a notebook with the OFA (Organizing for Action) logo. Yes, Obama's own Revolutionary Guards.

Let me report just the most salient instruction that was told to these folks . . . lie.

In a nutshell, the leader said to ask the home owners you contact what their political concerns are, then feed these concerns back as positive positions for the candidate.

Taxes too high? Feed back that the candidate wants to lower taxes.

More gun control? Feed back that the candidate want more gun control.

Too many immigrants? Feed back that the candidate wants to review the situation.

"This went on, ad nauseum, for 15 minutes," DeCovnick wrties.

Networks Disregard Florida GOP HQ Getting Shot Up . . . Bash Trump Instead

By Rick Pearcey • October 30, 2018, 12:00 PM

Nicholas Fondacaro writes at Newsbusters:

For a week, the liberal media have been railing against President Trump, claiming he was the one responsible for the violence and death in recent days.

Yet when the Volusia County Florida Republican Party headquarters was sprayed with bullets Sunday night, none of the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) cared enough to mention it during their Monday news programs. . . . 

Turning a blind eye to violence against Republicans was not new to the liberal media.

Just last month, the networks ignored a GOP office in Wyoming being intentionally set on fire. The broadcast networks have also ignored the disturbing upsurge in physical attacks against GOP candidates and lawmakers. One attack included a candidate in California who had to use a lawn sign to fend off a man trying to stab him.

"Instead of covering the attack against the GOP office," Fondacaro writes, "the networks decided their time was better-spent railing against Trump for criticizing the press and for being, in their minds, an insufficient 'consoler-in-chief'."

Candace Owens Announces "Blexit" -- The Black Exit

By Rick Pearcey • October 29, 2018, 12:52 PM

Watch and listen here as Candace Owens unveils a new initiative she calls BLEXIT -- the "Black Exit from permanent victimhood, the Black exit from the false idea that we are somehow separate from the rest of America."

"We free," the Blexit website proclaims. And then explains: 

BLEXIT is a frequency for those who have released themselves from the political orthodoxy. It is a rebellion led by Americans wishing to disrupt the simulation of fear.

BLEXIT is a renaissance. It is our formal declaration of independence.

Here's the website.


Kanye West Designs "Blexit" Shirts, Encourages Black Americans to Leave Democrat Party

By Rick Pearcey • October 29, 2018, 12:27 PM

Tom Joyce reports at LifeZette:

Rapper Kanye West, who has been open about his support for the current sitting president, is now using merchandise to help encourage black Americans to leave the Democratic Party.

The artist designed a series of "Blexit" ("black exit") merchandise that was revealed at Turning Point USA’s Young Black Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C., over the weekend.

West himself was not at the event, but Turning Point's communications director, Candace Owens, who has grown friendly with West, praised him for it there.

"Blexit is a renaissance, and I am blessed to say that this logo, these colors, were created by my dear friend and fellow superhero Kanye West," Owens is quoted as saying the D.C. summit.

West "has taken one of the boldest steps in America to open a conversation we have needed to have," Owens said, according to LifeZette.

Nancy Pearcey @LifeZette: #MeToo Movement Roils Classical Music World

By Rick Pearcey • October 26, 2018, 12:42 PM

Pearcey Report editor at large Nancy Pearcey writes at LifeZette:

Officials with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra are facing a federal sexual harassment complaint by primary oboist Katherine Needleman (pictured above left) against concertmaster Jonathan Carney. She claims he propositioned her for sex, then retaliated when she denied his advances. (The concertmaster is second in importance only to the conductor.)

The Cleveland Orchestra’s concertmaster, William Preucil, celebrated as the best in the country, was recently suspended. Violinist Zeneba Bowers charges that after assaulting her, Preucil threatened to blacklist her if she told anyone.

Even world-renowned conductors have been ousted. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in London canceled conductor Charles Dutoit’s appearances "for the immediate future" following allegations of sexual assault, including rape.

The Metropolitan Opera in New York City fired star conductor James Levine earlier this year, saying it found credible evidence that he engaged in "sexually abusive and harassing conduct both before and during the period when he worked at the Met."

Charles Dutoit? James Levine? I grew up in a musical home (and attended college on a full-tuition violin scholarship), so these are names I've known since my teens, always spoken with reverence.

Yet these revelations did not come as a great shock to some people in the classical music world.

I interviewed a husband and wife who work as professional musicians and teach at the university level. They said the pervasiveness of sexual harassment "has been known for years, but nobody did anything about it."

Exploding the Transgender Myth

By Rick Pearcey • October 25, 2018, 11:09 AM

Avrohom Gordimer writes at American Thinker:

The Trump administration is finally bursting the bubble -- a bubble full of hot air, falsehoods, and nefarious social agendas.
. . .

The entire transgender legitimacy movement is a fabrication in which new vocabulary was introduced to glorify those who suffer from the psychiatric condition known as gender dysphoria.

Although it has been sanitized to reflect political correctness and liberal values, the American Psychiatric Association's classification of gender dysphoria treats the condition as a mental disorder; it is hard to avoid the inescapable scientific truth.

Under President Obama, the federal government was directed to deny this truth and to treat those with gender dysphoria as really being of the sex they imagine they are, due to their disorder.

President Trump has corrected this error and should be applauded.

Socialist Venezuela: Blackouts Force Doctors to Perform Surgery in Darkness

By Rick Pearcey • October 24, 2018, 01:59 PM

In a news article titled "Blackouts Force Venezuelans to Live and Work -- Even Perform Surgery -- in Darkness," Gustavo Ocando Alex reports at the Miami Herald:

When the lights go out in their sixth-floor apartment yet again, the Molero family knows the drill. First, 27-year-old Marcos José Molero, a quadriplegic since birth, begins muttering swear words in his bedroom, angry that he won't be able to watch his favorite TV series or the latest Barcelona soccer game.

Then his father, Marcos José Molero Sr., drags sleeping mats into the living room -- "It's fresher in here," he said during a blackout last month ­-- so his son can find some comfort in the blistering darkness.

Next, the 56-year-old civil engineer takes turns with his wife laying wet towels on his son's body to help cool him so he doesn't get another heat rash on his legs and back. They know the apartment can quickly heat up to 95 degrees with no air conditioning.

And finally, as they sit in the dark, they play soothing music on a battery-powered radio. . . ."

"Blackouts in Zulia state, an area of northwestern Venezuela that includes the country's second-largest city of Maracaibo, have become commonplace in the last year," the Herald reports.

"Food and medicine were already increasingly scarce in Venezuela, but the power cuts that come without warning -- sometimes more than once a day -- are a new form of misery," the Herald states.

"The government has blamed the outages on a variety of things -- including pesky animals," according to the Herald. "In an Oct. 20 tweet, Energy Minister Luis Motta Dominguez named 'rats, mice, snakes, cats, squirrels' as possible culprits in shorting out lines. He added: 'In the list of animals mentioned above, of course iguanas are included.'"

Migrant Caravan Invasion: What the President Must Do to Seal the Border

By Rick Pearcey • October 23, 2018, 12:54 PM

Joseph Klein writes at Frontpagemag.com

A migrant caravan from Central America is currently heading en masse to the United States. Its members, several thousand strong, are intent on pouring into the U.S. in what amounts to an invasion force.

President Trump has correctly branded the caravan an "onslaught" and an "assault on our country." The president has promised to use military troops if necessary to close the southern border with Mexico.

He also threatened to cut off all foreign aid to those Central American countries that are not doing enough to stop the migration caravan in its tracks.

Members of the caravan have already demonstrated their violent streak during an early stage of their trek, as they approached Mexico. They "forced their way through Guatemala's northwestern border and flooded onto a bridge leading to Mexico," AFP reported.

These migrants, mainly from Honduras, engaged in violent clashes with Mexican riot police as they tried to surge through police lines and cross the bridge into Mexico. Four Mexican police officers were reportedly injured.

"Violent entry into the country not only threatens our sovereignty, but also puts the migrants themselves at risk," Mexico’s President Pena Nieto is quoted as saying. "Mexico does not permit and will not permit entry into its territory in an irregular fashion, much less in a violent fashion."

The Devils: Leftist Violence Is Natural Outgrowth of Authoritarian Ideology

By Rick Pearcey • October 22, 2018, 12:37 PM

In his latest column David Limbaugh asks

What do you make of the leftist violence and anarchy all over the country lately? Is it just random and unrepresentative of the Democratic Party and the left as a whole? Or does it logically follow from what the left has become?

As Limbaugh sees it: 

There is a logical connection between the left's ideology and its authoritarian, intolerant and violent behavior.

There are passionate advocates on both sides of the political divide, each fervently believing in their respective views, but the modern political left is much less respectful of the Constitution, the rule of law and democratic processes.

For far too many leftists, the end justifies the means, so they are willing to suspend due process and change the rules when they don't prevail at the ballot box.

Drilling further down, Limbaugh notes: 

Leftists, being largely secular, invest their faith in government, which partially explains their inability to accept the failures of their policies to achieve the results they claim they want (socialism) and their sometimes even abandoning the pursuit of those results. . . . 

The left's moral preening, virtue signaling and sermonizing are natural outgrowths of its quasi-spiritual, unshakable faith in its failed utopian policies. Leftists invested enormous hope in Obama's agenda, but it yielded only economic stagnation and an America in decline.

Their faith-based incredulity manifests itself in their taking credit for Trump's economy -- even after their leader himself, former President Obama, predicted that the dreadful economic malaise over which he presided was to be a permanent phenomenon in America.

The sad reality is that Democrats have no solutions anymore and thus are reduced to crass, divisive identity politics -- pitting minorities against white people, women against men, and poor against rich.

No matter what they say, there is no satisfying them; they traffic in agitating racial, gender and economic warfare, and it's devastating to the national fabric. This explains why they demonize Kanye West and any other black person who dares to stray from the prescribed liberal dogma.

"The left's increasing violent episodes and rhetoric give us a taste of what Democrats would be like if they regained majority power," Limbaugh concludes. "If that happens, they will engage full-bore in the kind of lawless authoritarian behavior they falsely accuse President Trump of committing."

New York Man Arrested for Death Threats Against Senators Supporting Kavanaugh

By Rick Pearcey • October 19, 2018, 04:06 PM

Evie Fordham reports at Daily Caller:

A New York man was arrested Friday for making death threats to two unnamed senators, who supported the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, in phone calls dating back as far as Sept. 27.

Ronald DeRisi, 74, left more than 10 expletive-laced, threatening phone messages, prosecutors said, according to USA Today.

He allegedly talked about making a senator a "dead man" with a "9 millimeter" in the "side of the head," in a Sept. 27 phone call to one of the senators, reported Politico.

Pelosi Details Plans for Open Borders: No Democrats Will Vote for Trump Wall

By Rick Pearcey • October 18, 2018, 01:11 PM

John Binder writes at Breitbart:

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) says that if the Democrats take back the House in the 2018 midterm elections, none of them will vote for President Trump's wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.

In an interview with Politico, Pelosi detailed her plans -- or lack thereof -- for the U.S.-Mexico border and national immigration policy, which does not include Trump's proposed border wall.

"I don't see any of us voting for wall funding," Pelosi said. "We have a responsibility to secure our borders," Pelosi said. "There are ways to do that that are consistent with civilization, humanitarianism, and who we are as a nation. We have to remove all doubt about that."

"Pelosi's hinting that Congress must 'remove all doubt' that the U.S. is humane could come in the form of House and Senate Democrats' plan to end all immigration enforcement across the nation, including the abolishment of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)," Binder writes.

Hungary Bans Gender Studies: Because It's "an Ideology, Not a Science"

By Rick Pearcey • October 17, 2018, 11:30 AM

Caleb Parke reports at Fox News:

Hungary's populist government has banned gender studies degrees citing low enrollment numbers that waste taxpayer money and because it is "an ideology not a science."

Left-wing critics say it's academically problematic, politically unheard of in a democratic society, and argue gender studies degrees do lead to jobs.

Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who has been called the Donald Trump of Europe, signed the decree, which went into effect Saturday, removing gender studies from a list of approved master's programs, though students already enrolled will be grandfathered in.

"The Hungarian government is of the clear view that people are born either men or women," Orban's chief of staff said recenlty, according to Fox News. "They lead their lives the way they think best, but beyond this, the Hungarian state does not wish to spend public funds on education in this area."

Top Democrat's Lead Vanishes Amid Fallout From Domestic Abuse Allegations

By Rick Pearcey • October 16, 2018, 09:55 AM

Lukas Mikelionis reports at Fox News:

Embattled Democrat Rep. Keith Ellison’s lead in the Minnesota Attorney General election appears to be vanishing amid allegations of domestic violence against his ex-girlfriend.

The congressman's bid to become the top law enforcement official in the blue state was supposed to be an easy task for a popular Democrat who holds one of the top positions within the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

But Ellison's lead has taken a dramatic cut since Karen Monahan came forward with her story in August detailing the physical and emotional abuse she suffered allegedly at the hands of Ellison.

"In one particular incident, Ellison allegedly [] dragged her from a bed and shouted 'F--- you, b---' and 'I hate you'," Mikelionis reports. "She also released a 2017 medical document in which she identified the congressman as the cause of her 'emotional and physical abuse'."

"Recent polls indicate that Ellison [is] in a dead heat race with Doug Wardlow, the Republican opponent, according to the New York Times," Mikelionis reports.

"The poll also found that 40 percent [of] surveyed voters said the domestic abuse allegations 'are a factor' in whether to vote for the Democrat," according to Mikelionis. "Another poll shows the congressman leading by five points."

"Gosnell" Movie Profiling Serial-Killer Abortionist Breaks Top 10 Nationally

By Rick Pearcey • October 15, 2018, 01:06 PM

Steven Ertelt writes at LifeNews.com:

Despite a media blackout and virtually no coverage outside conservative media circles, the new movie Gosnell made the list of top 10 movies across the United States over the weekend.

Coming in at the #10 spot, Gosnell came in ahead of other movies with much wider releases -- as the film is appearing in just 673 theaters nationwide. 

Despite the more limited release, Gosnell outperformed A Simple Favor, The Nun, and the blockbuster film Crazy Rich Asians . . . .

Had Gosnell opened in 2,800 theaters like other movies in the top 10 list it would have finished in 7th place for the weekend -- making it more popular per theater than The House With a Clock in Its Walls and Bad Times at the El Royale.

"Those who are watching the movie are giving in tremendously high ratings. It has a 67% rating at Rotten Tomatoes and 99% of those viewing it said they liked it," Ertelt writes.

Professor: Hurricane Victims "Reaping" Their Decision to Elect "Climate Deniers"

By Rick Pearcey • October 11, 2018, 03:51 PM

Michael Bastasch writes at the Daily Caller:

Does University of St. Thomas thermal sciences professor John Abraham actually believe Florida Panhandle residents deserved to get hit by a catastrophic hurricane for electing "climate deniers?"

"Victims of Hurricane Michael voted for climate deniers," reads the headline an article by Abraham, published in The Guardian Thursday.

"Elections have consequences. Denying science has consequences. And we are reaping what we sow," the subhead reads.

"Despite the lack of science to support for his case, Abraham blames Michael's intensity on man-made global warming, leading to his subsequent claim that southern voters brought this upon themselves by voting Republicans into office," Bastasch states.

"The United Nation's latest climate report, released Sunday, found there's little to no evidence global warming is making hurricanes more extreme or intense," Bastasch writes.

"Numerous studies towards and beyond AR5 have reported a decreasing trend in the global number of tropical cyclones and/or the globally accumulated cyclonic energy," the most recent report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change found, according to the Daily Caller.

Michelle Malkin: In 2 Days, the Most Important Movie You've Never Heard Of

By Rick Pearcey • October 10, 2018, 01:43 PM

Michelle Malkin writes at CR:

It's here.

Gosnell: The Trial of America’s Biggest Serial Killer debuts in theaters nationwide on Oct. 12. I do believe this groundbreaking film by indie producers Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney is the most important movie in America right now -- a true-life saga of good vs. evil, deadly medical malpractice, systemic government malfeasance and cultural apathy toward the most vulnerable members of our society.

I first reported on this real-life horror story nearly eight years ago, but you've probably not heard or read a word about Gosnell in the mainstream press, TV news or online. The conspiracy of silence is the result of both malign neglect and active suppression of inconvenient truths.

Malkin provides some of the particulars behind the silence regarding Gosnell:  

  • CNN "Lack of Interest": "One CNN commentator flippantly explained that the network's lack of interest was a 'business decision,' not bias"
  • Kickstarter Censorship: "Pro-abortion censors at crowdsourcing giant Kickstarter banned McAleer and McElhinney from raising money for the project leading small donors across the country to help conduct the largest-ever crowdfunded movie on Indiegogo. (Full disclosure: I put my money where my principles are and donated three times, in addition to using my social media platforms to lend a hand.)"
  • NPR Ad Blocking: "Taxpayer-supported National Public Radio refused to run sponsored ads describing Gosnell as an 'abortionist' because its legal department determined the accurate description violated the left-leaning network's 'value neutral' platform. LOL."
  • Facebook Banning: "This past week, Facebook banned advertising for the movie -- a continuation of its systemic crackdown on conservative speech."

"What are they trying to hide?" Malkin asks.

Kavanaugh Catapults Marsha Blackburn Into Lead in Key Tennessee Senate Race

By Rick Pearcey • October 9, 2018, 03:12 PM

David M. Drucker reports at the Washington Examiner:

Republican Rep. Marsha Blackburn holds her first sustained lead in the race for an open Tennessee Senate seat, catapulted ahead of Democrat Phil Bredesen by the partisan battle to confirm newly minted Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

The Kavanaugh clash has awakened complacent Republicans and motivated conservative voters blasé about President Trump to rally around the GOP flag. The development is hobbling Bredesen, a popular former governor, undercutting his crossover appeal with rank-and-file Republicans and diminishing the Democratic Party's critical enthusiasm edge.

"Blackburn cruised past Bredesen in two public opinion polls conducted at the apex of the Kavanaugh controversy," according to the Examiner.

"The fresh data suggests the episode has nationalized the Tennessee contest and led Republicans open to voting for the Democrat to retreat to their partisan bunkers," the Examiner reports. "In one survey, Blackburn topped Bredesen by 8 percentage points; in another, she was in front by 5 points."

Susan Collins: "They Actually Threatened to Rape One of My Young Female Staffers"

By Rick Pearcey • October 8, 2018, 12:00 PM

From an article titled, "Left Turns Vicious on Sen. Susan Collins," at WND:

Three weeks ago, Maine Republican Susan Collins was the darling of those opposing Kavanaugh's Supreme Court confirmation.

USA Today reported back then: "Kavanaugh's opponents have identified Collins, along with Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, as Senate Republicans who could potentially vote against Trump's Supreme Court pick. The opposition is largely driven by abortion-rights activists' fear that Kavanaugh could be the justice whose vote overturns the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision."

Flash forward to Saturday, when Collins stunned the left with her right hook. Today, the senator's office has reported receiving threatening calls and letters as well as more than 3,000 wire coat hangers in grim a reference to the unsafe, illegal abortions that abortion-rights defenders say would follow the end of Roe v. Wade.

And a controversial crowdfunding campaign has raised more than $1.1 million to give to a future Collins opponent if she votes to confirm Kavanaugh.

"Collins told the Wall Street Journal that she finds 'the out-of-state voicemails being left on the answering machines of my state offices" to be "incredibly offensive," WND states.

"In one case -- and we are going to turn this over to the police, but unfortunately, of course, the person didn't leave a name or number -- but they actually threatened to rape one of my young female staffers," Collins said, according to WND.

Feminist Journal Accepted Hoax Anti-Male Re-Write of Hitler's "Mein Kampf"

By Rick Pearcey • October 5, 2018, 02:53 PM

Tim Ciccotta reports at Breitbart:

A feminist academic journal published a hoax paper based on Adolph Hitler's “Mein Kampf” that had been rewritten with feminist buzzwords.

As a part of a wide-ranging hoax against various academic journals, Helen Pluckrose, James Lindsay, and Peter Boghossian submitted a reimagining of Adolph Hitler's Mein Kampf to a feminist journal for publication.

The team of hoaxers submitted a version of "Mein Kampf" that had been rewritten from the perspective of an intersectional feminist.

The paper, which was titled, "Our Struggle Is My Struggle: Solidarity Feminism as an Intersectional Reply to Neoliberal and Choice Feminism," received strong praise from its reviewers in academia.

"The reviewers are supportive of the work and noted its potential to generate important dialogue for social workers and feminist scholars," the journal’s co-editor-in-chief said upon first review.

Nancy Pelosi Describes Supernatural Encounter With Pro-Life Feminists

By Rick Pearcey • October 4, 2018, 04:25 PM

Emily Ward reports at CNSNews.com:

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) told the Texas Tribune on Saturday that she felt famous feminists "crowding" her in her chair during her first meeting with President George W. Bush at the White House after becoming part of the Democratic leadership in the House of Representatives.

"I'd never had this experience before, but I was just crowded in in my chair and I was like, What is happening here?" Pelosi told an audience at the Sept. 29 interview.

"And then I realized," Pelosi said, "that, sitting on the chair with me in that White House meeting while President Bush was speaking, was Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Alice Paul, Sojourner Truth, Lucretia Mott, they were all right there on the chair with me. And I heard them say, 'At last we have a seat at the table.'"

"Three of these women -- Anthony, Stanton and Paul -- were also pro-life, in contrast to Pelosi's pro-abortion views," Ward writes.

"In her interview, Pelosi suggested that a woman's 'right' to have an abortion was non-negotiable, Ward continues.

"One place you can't find common ground, I can just tell you this, is on the issue of a woman's right to choose. That is the thing that is an absolute," Pelosi said, CNSNews reports.

"According to Feminists for Life, a nonprofit, nonpartisan grassroots organization which opposes abortion, Paul held a very different point of view," Ward reports. "When feminists began to link the Equal Rights Act (ERA) with abortion, Paul 'opposed' this trend, saying, 'Abortion is the ultimate in the exploitation of women'."

Prosecutor's Report: 9 Reasons Blasey Ford Not Credible

By Rick Pearcey • October 1, 2018, 02:35 PM

John Nolte writes at Breitbart

Rachel Mitchell, the veteran sex crimes prosecutor chosen by Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee to question Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh, has filed a report that points out Ford's inconsistencies and apparent deceptions.

"In the legal context, here is my bottom line," she writes.

"A 'he said, she said' case is incredibly difficult to prove. But this case is even weaker than that.

"I do not think that a reasonable prosecutor would bring this case based on the evidence."

She adds, "Nor do I believe that this evidence is sufficient to satisfy the preponderance-of-the-evidence standard." This means Ford's story does no reach the 50-50 level of more likely than not.
