“Time to accept failure”: Republicans aren’t just losing. They’re not even playing the game.

17

A few weeks ago I spoke up in New Hampshire at the invitation of the Sullivan County Republican Party, and the whole incident showed in microcosm how the far-Left has gained control of the media, the educational system, and the culture in general, without any significant pushback from those who are supposedly committed to the freedom of speech and a free society.

My appearance led to what has now become the usual firestorm that ensues whenever someone who challenges the prevailing Leftist narrative speaks anywhere. I was smeared by “journalists” Kevin Landrigan of the New Hampshire Union Leader and John Gregg of the Valley News, neither of whom bothered to ask me for comment while printing as unquestioned fact defamatory and false charges about me. Raymond Buckley, chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party, President of the Association of State Democratic Chairs, and Vice Chair of the Democratic National Committee, called me a “white supremacist,” apparently having confused me with Richard Spencer, and refused to retract when repeatedly requested to do so. Democrat State Senator Martha Hennessey, after the manner of Nazi Brownshirts in the early 1930s, led a smear campaign on Twitter. Two venues, the Eastman Community Center in Grantham and the Elks Club in Claremont, caved in to this and canceled the event; the Elks, at least, were directly pressured to cancel by Hennessey.

The event went on in a third venue. Here is the video.

Buckley is a liar and Hennessey is a fascist, so neither should be in positions of public service, but they’re typical in the Democrat Party these days. What was far worse was the cowardly response on the Republican side. Instead of investigating the false charges being made about me, discovering I wasn’t really any of the things that were being said, and standing up for the freedom of speech, all too many Republicans were ready to kowtow and do everything the Democrats wanted. Sullivan County Republican Committee Chairman Keith Hanson, who invited me in the first place, stood firm and kept finding new venues when one would cancel, but some prominent local Republicans stood. Hanson picked me up at the airport and drove me to the venue, and on the way told me about how the Democrats had gerrymandered themselves into total control of Vermont and were trying to do the same thing in New Hampshire; in response, Republicans are doing nothing. They don’t seem to realize or care what is happening, and have ceded all the initiative and control of the narrative to the Democrats.

In the face of the left’s smear campaign against me, some of the Republicans showed this again, demonstrating that they were totally cowed and ready to surrender, happy to allow the Left to dictate what they can do or can’t do. They don’t even seem to realize what is wrong with this.

James “Jim” Beard is the former Sullivan County Republican Committee Chairman and failed candidate for New Hampshire Executive Council. The night before the event, he wrote this to Hanson:

Time to accept failure….Keith, it is time to send a email blast to everyone who responded, everyone who bought tickets with 100% refunds and accept your mis-management for bringing this event to Sullivan County. Tomorrow evening, you will be alone with 10-20 people inside the VFW Hall in Claremont with a group of maybe 50 protestors outside. This is not how SCGOP candidates wish to be portrayed, nor how they will win elections.

This entire charade is an embarrassment for the SCGOP and I suggest you step aside. Let us return to good ole’ [sic] fashioned hot dog roasts on the Newport Common where people came together from all works of life in the community, socialize and build common understanding. That is how we Republicans solicit votes…interaction with the public.

You can write your own resignation…

Yes, that’s right, “let us return to good ole’ fashioned hot dog roasts.” Face down the protestors? Stand on principle? Not good ol’ James “Jim” Beard. The Democrats are at open war against the freedom of speech. They’re stigmatizing and silencing all opposition to jihad mass murder and Sharia oppression of women and others. They are forcing a radical socialist agenda on the country. And this clown thinks he is going to beat them with hot dog roasts. Or rather, he is happy to lose, as long as he gets his with mustard.

Then there is Representative Steven Smith, Senior Republican Advisor in the NH House and Chairman of the Sullivan County Delegation, Sullivan County District 11. Nadir Ahmed, an Islamic apologist whom I bested in debate years ago wrote to Smith, apparently offering to speak in Sullivan County and spread some soothing lies where I had told uncomfortable truths. Smith’s response to him, which Ahmed then gleefully sent to me, couldn’t have been friendlier (in sharp contrast to his rude and arrogant tone with me when I wrote him after this), and shows where Smith stands.

I saw your messages to the SCGOP Facebook page and did not want you to think you were being ignored. Thanks for your offer. I am currently trying to sweep up Mr. Hanson’s mess. He may not be with the organization much longer and he is not responding to messages. Your offer is interesting, but the timing is terrible. Let me think about it once this all dies down. I watched the video. The think [sic] is, I am losing faith that minds can be changed these days.

Did Smith attend my event? He did not. Does he have the first foggiest idea of what I actually say? Almost certainly not. But he knows the Democrats and the establishment media don’t like it, so he is ready to carry water for them and help further their agenda. Rep. Smith, I’d be glad to come back to New Hampshire at my own expense and debate your friend, or anyone else you choose. But somehow I doubt you have either the courage or the good will to sponsor such an event.

Why do jellyfish on the order of Beard and Smith rule in the Republican Party? The Democrats are fighting a war, and the Republicans are playing jacks. Where are the men with spines? Where are people standing up to this totalitarian agenda of the Left, and affirming that opposition to jihad terror is not morally wrong or evil, and that such opposition should be allowed a platform? Not, for the most part, in the Republican Party, not just in Sullivan County, New Hampshire, but all over the country. Instead, Republicans keep roasting their hot dogs, and hoping that their Leftist masters won’t demand too very much of them.

What they need to do in Vermont and NH is simply to show videos from California and Chicago as to what will happen to them if Commiecrats rule without opposition. It isn’t pretty and everyone needs to see it in action.

Progressive Liberals are much more honest about their hate. They carry anti-Jewish signs, they have their Antifa thugs beat up old folks carrying an American flag, they believe in allowing criminals into the USA and providing them benefits over legal aliens. Meanwhile, Sneaky Senator Mitt Romney undermines any member who is in the war against these anti-American hatemongers.

Mitt Romney like McCain before him is aider and abettor of the Commiecrats. I have a suspicion Soros or another of his ilk have a hammer over Romney forcing him to undercut Trump or any other effective opposition.

The winds have changed now just wait and see.
We must remember what we are witnessing the left is a cult, the whole philosophy they follow is from the book rules for radicals and this connects everything we see today to Hillary.
Everyone must pray for President Trump and his family protection for all those around him.

Most kids get punched in the nose growing up, but some of us got bigger and tougher and learned how to punch back or throw the first punch on occasion. Others were intimidated for life.

I have been an avid reader of Spencer’s articles and his web
site. I believe that he has an excellent grasp of the reality that we
non-Muslims face from the world of Islam. He speaks to that reality, a reality
that we all can see by virtue of the conduct of those within the world of Islam
that is causing havoc world-wide. What disturbs me most is my belief that our
world leaders, the Democratic party and the media seem to have taken either no
position against the clear and present danger represented by Islam, or they are
being very cavalier about refusing to at least say the kind of responses one
would state against a philosophy that endangers our freedoms and the American
way. I speak out against what I see happening, though I have also noted that
many of my fellow citizens seem to ignore the concerns that they face from this
intolerant philosophy. It is disheartening. Sure there are many within the
belief systems that are tolerant, but we have all seen that when push comes to
shove, even the tolerant ones favor their own kind to our detriment. I have
been urging for the longest time that we need to speak out against this hoard,
for to not do so now will enable them to take from us ‘others’ all that we hold
dear. Keep at it Mr. Spencer, and maybe the light will shine and we will all
come to realize that these believers are a uniquely dangerous society, and
something needs to be done to salvage and protect our free society.

“Sure there are many within the

A commentary on Quran 3:28, tafsir ibn Kathir says, “smile in the face of the unbelievers but curse them in your heart.”

Quran 3:28 prescribes for Muslims not to take non-Muslims as friends. Good luck differentiating between those sincerely tolerant and friendly Muslims versus those who are cursing you and looking forward to the day you will be killed or subjugated.

“Lindsey Graham”
Swamp Snail – A Tina Toon

Anticipation…

For months Lindsey Graham has been promising he would take action and investigate how the Mueller probe started.

We are STILL waiting.
Lindsey lied.

Graham has scheduled no committee hearings on the Mueller probe, Joe Biden or Spygate.
Lindsey lied.

Graham has made nothing but empty promises. What’s he covering up?
Graham can destroy the Democrat’s entire Ukrainian narrative with one public hearing.

Why is Graham moving like a swamp snail?

Rush Limbaugh suggests why Lindsey is moving so slowly.

Because the slime trail will lead straight to Graham’s BFF, the late Senator John McCain.comment image

Graham and McCain with the former president and former US ambassador in Ukraine.

Via Rush Limbaugh Show

“A lot of people raised a good point, where’s Lindsey Grahamnesty? Where is he? He’s got a Senate committee that he runs, Judiciary Committee. He could be subpoenaing people, he could be demanding to see — he could be doing in the Senate what they’re doing in the House except he could be doing it to the people that ran this phony investigation into Trump. He could be tracking them all up there. And people ask, “Why isn’t he doing anything?”

And you know what the popular theory is? The popular theory is that he’s got cold feet about doing this because it would implicate Senator McCain, one of his great friends. And it may be true. John McCain was at the epicenter of the Steele dossier’s dissemination. John McCain was one of the leaders in the effort to get Trump and his election reversed and thrown out of town using the Steele dossier and any investigation of this is going to demonstrate this. And many are theorizing that Lindsey Graham just doesn’t want to see Senator McCain’s name dragged through this kind of mud, so there’s no investigation.”

Yesterday Graham announced he would introduce a resolution to US Senate condemning the impeachment probe of President Trump..

(Rules state it has to be unamious, so ONE PERSON can block the resolution.)

Another stall tactic?
(Yes, another stall tactic and WHY was Lindsey in the Ukraine?.)

Where are the public hearings? That’s what we want.
