[ April 23, 2024 ]
For years my colleagues and I battled the left in and out of our party. Establishment RINO’s worked furiously to keep the principled and true out of the tent (ie CPAC). But the election of President Trump has vindicated us and shown the principled and patriotic just what vicious spineless quislings they really are. The enemy among us.
Report: Weekly Standard Founder Bill Kristol Caught Up in Spygate Scandal and Linked to Peter Strzok
Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
Bill Kristol, from the Weekly Standard, went from a leading conservative voice and Obama critic to a Trump hater who worked with Obama to derail the Trump Campaign.
by Joe Hoft, Gateway Pundit, August 16, 2018:
Kristol fell so far that he started pushing the Trump – Russia dossier at the same time as John Brennan and the Obama team.
Story continues below advertisementKristol went from leading conservative voice to being the leader of the anti-Trump “conservative” movement in a matter of a few years.
Kristol and The Weekly Standard published articles smearing The Gateway Pundit for supporting the Republican Presidential candidate.
Now we know that Kristol’s fall was worse than we thought.
According to Julie Kelly at American Greatness website Kristol was one of the first individuals to push the Trump – Russia collision farce –
n his online appeal for money after being fired this week, disgraced former FBI agent Peter Strzok credited an unlikely source to vouch for his victim status: The Weekly Standard.
At one time a leading conservative magazine, the Standard declared last month that Strzok’s plight was merely an “overwrought tale of bias” and the case against him is “just sound and fury.” The article brushed off Strzok’s actions as “several bad judgment calls” and blasted Congressional Republicans for continuing a criminal investigation into the now-unemployed G-man.
Strzok is following only 32 people on his newly-verified Twitter account. Bill Kristol, the editor-at-large of the Standard, is one of them.
What Kelly points out is stunning –
On July 24, 2016, just days before Strzok helped launch a counterintelligence probe into the Trump campaign, Kristol gave Strzok and the Obama Justice Department a big assist from the anti-Trump Right by posting a flawed and questionably-sourced article. “Putin’s Party” is compelling evidence that Kristol and the Standard were far from mere sideline observers as the Trump-Russia collusion scam took shape in the summer of 2016.
At the very least, the timing of the article suggests there was careful coordination between the central players—including the Hillary Clinton campaign—and Bill Kristol to derail Trump’s candidacy just weeks before the election. But the article’s content also serves to raise alarming questions about the claims by many Republicans that “conservatives” had no knowledge of or involvement with the Christopher Steele dossier.
Let’s back up a bit. On the morning that Kristol’s piece posted, the Trump-Russian election collusion story was in its embryonic stage—nearly all American voters that summer remained blissfully unaware of the details in this preposterous story—but secretly it was being peddled to the media by Fusion GPS, a political opposition research firm hired by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee to dig up Russian-related dirt on Donald Trump. Talking points produced by Glenn Simpson, the head of Fusion, and contained in the Steele dossier, were making the rounds in the D.C.-NYC media claque during July 2016. (At the same time, Steele was working with the FBI and alerting the agency to his dubious findings about the Trump campaign.)
Kristol’s article hits on every single one of the Simpson-Steele talking points: Trump forced the GOP to water-down language on the Ukraine in the party’s platform (it didn’t happen); the Russians were behind Wikileaks’ release of the DNC’s hacked emails (unproven); Trump encouraged foreign powers to interfere in the election (he didn’t); and Trump would not honor U.S. commitments to NATO (an overblown assessment of Trump’s NATO criticism nearly all the Republican candidates made). He listed a handful of unknown Trump campaign associates who would soon become household names, including campaign manager Paul Manafort; national security advisor, Lt. General Michael Flynn; and foreign policy aide Carter Page. (Strzok and the FBI formally opened their investigation into the three men—and campaign aide George Papadopoulos—on July 31, 2016.)
Did Steele have to pay Kristol or did he just post the article on his own? Sad – Very Sad!

They know their hold overs in FBI / DOJ /NSC will help them out !
Unless they are totally purged including Left/Liberal judges to keep out their bias …its uphill task to prosecute them.

God is being way too patient for me…. He needs to collect McPain from this earth.
I SWEAR, we will celebrate Songbird McPain’s death in the proper way….for his contributions on this earth.
Knowing McPain, he could be comatose but if there is an anti-American bill to be voted on,
they will wheel him in on a gurney with an IV drip, celebrating how “patriotic” he is, rig his hand and fingers to do a thumbs up to be the deciding vote FOR the anti-American bill. He is a disgusting, narcissistic man that is so jealous of Trump he can’t see straight let alone think straight.

All these years these stink tanks, er THINK tanks fed us what we wanted to here.
Small limited government, low taxes and other conservative ideology when all along they were greedy, godless liberals that wanted MASS IMMIGRATION for cheap labor, OPEN BORDER for cheap labor, HIGH TAXES to cover the social costs of this, CRIMINALS are welcome to since they don’t have to LIVE with them as we do and then along comes TRUMP. He also EXPOSES how they BUY POLITICIANS and stink tanks.
They will always be NEVER TRUMPERS. They are LIBERALS in DRAG.

Kristol should win an Oscar for acting like a true Conservative.
Seems like every month another Trump hater is exposed from government or the RINO press.

This man went so overboard silly about Trump that he looked positively stupid.

Not surprised in the least! NR’s Lowry, Weekly Standard’s Krystal, George Will and a host of others have separated themselves from the TRUE conservative and certainly pro-Trump movement that is certainly alive, well and flourishing in exciting fashion! These misfits & liars have an increasingly narrow leadership role in ANY political party or movement. I think their shrinking numbers could all squeeze in the finely appointed Georgetown residence of the once-influential, but now totally irrelevant, George Will!

That is because ALL of them are anti-American, globalist scum.

Graft and corruption birds of a feather flock together, crossing from government, to media to the entertainment industry. Where there’s money and power, miscreants can always be found. Like flies to honey.

I cancelled my subscription to “The Weekly Sub-standard” and “National Review” when they started their leftward drift and publishing inane articles. “Gun control is an ’80s issue” was the last straw.
It became impossible to distinguish sh*t from bullsh*t.

Many, including Rush, have talked about the “good ole boys'” club in Washington. Drain the sewer!
Whatever you think about Trump, he is exposing this.

How right you are!! Yes, ours was almost a halcyon time in modern American history – particularly after the war and thru the 50s. I graduated from college in the early 60s and JUST missed all the drugs, etc. (Not that I didn’t do MORE than my share of drinking beer & wine!!) But the drug scene hadn’t quite got under way, etc. Also, because I was a conservative, I wasn’t (yet) disillusioned with the Vietnam War and simply was turned off by all the protests and the madness. Again, NOT because I wasn’t doing my own thing, but because I had more fun holding up bars and socializing all the time! But the Good Lord had my hand; and when he felt that I’d had enough (too much, actually!!), he led me to sanity and “everything in moderation!” A glass or two of wine suits me just fine these days! And I quit smoking 35 years ago!! Now my only “vice” (if you can call it a vice!) is going online for hours on end and learning all about The Bad Guys – not, of course, that it will save my ass or those of my fellow men & women! – but at least I’ll know who these bastards are!!

Finally finished college, began my teaching days in late 60’s. I knew the drug scene wasn’t going to end well…didn’t know just how it would end. Now we see, and when we add uncontrolled immigration, not only the numbers but who they are, we’re in deep kaka. California was always the trend setter for America. God help us if it still is! In the 1800’s, when it cam to immigration, America was concerned with assimilation, the “Melting Pot Tradition” (which I described in my classes) today we’re told that diversity is the strength of our nation. Yugoslavia should have been a paradise. Tito virtually outlawed religion to keep these people from killing each other…oh well, could go on. Trump’s our last chance to stop the madness in this country!

No wonder even libs have such visceral reactions towards ‘conservatives’ like Kristol the smarter ones sense duplicity. People like Kristol are just very creepy because they act like him say one thing but secretly do another thing. Expose the frauds!

He always appeared to be a bit snobbish. I read some of the Standard back in the Reagen days when I was a seamen. (we read most everything we could get our hands on) Never subscribed to it. Now that I think about it I never saw him much on FOX shows. CNN yes. Pamela is correct a Quisling.
