So does this mean that that the author thinks that the people who stormed the US Capitol, defecated in the building, and attempted to prevent Congress from carrying out its duty should also be jailed for three months? Because very few of them have. But that would require thinking and consistency. Fascist are much more interested in emoting and dominating
The following article read by dyrvbgytmg was presented at this site this morning, May 8, 2022:
Like most conservatives, I used to think that most liberals are nice people who are misguided because they haven’t studied economics, don’t know anything about history or foreign policy, and so on. I no longer believe that to be the case. I don’t think it is possible to observe today’s liberalism without concluding that it is largely demonic.
For today’s case in point, observe this demonstration of pro-baby killers in front of Chief Justice John Roberts’ home:
These people are not nice, but ill-informed. They are evil. Anyone who says that abortion “saves lives” is, best case, deeply disturbed. Their protest also violates federal law and, if Roberts lives in Virginia, state law. (I haven’t followed the libs’ vicious doxxing posts to see where each Supreme Court justice resides.)
I believe there are January 6 election integrity protesters who have been imprisoned for well over a year despite, in many cases, doing nothing whatsoever wrong. How about these pro-abortion libs? Their mission is more sinister and their methods are more plainly illegal, since many and likely most of the January 6 protesters entered the Capitol at the invitation of Capitol Police.
So, will any of these pro-abortion criminals be jailed, let alone held without bail for a year and a half? Personally, I would be satisfied if each of them serves a mere three months in prison. But there is zero chance that will happen. Being a liberal has its privileges, as we have all come to understand.
NOTE FROM GLENN H. RAY on the above matter:
In the general I do agree with you regarding the aura of the article written above by John Hinderaker suggesting that “all” Liberals Are Evil. I have never met Mr. Hinderaker personally and would agree with you that the corps of his article could have been provided considerable more evidence to prove his point.
I am sure he, like I, doesn’t believe all of today’s American Liberals are evil!
I DO AGREE WITH HIM THAT HIS STATEMENT, “LIBERALS ARE EVIL” is a fairly accurate description of those today Liberals who advertise our today’s leftist DEM politics….led by Nancy Pelosi and Charlie Schumer for starters.
Today’s active leading Dems have become evil over the past ten years….lying in Congress persecuting our President Donald J. Trump during his Office and nearly every moment since……all based on lies….led by the Washington Post and New York Times and much of television news including some GOP untruths.
TRUTH, HOPEFULLY, WILL EVENTUALLY WIN OUT….THE SOONER, THE BETTER! ghr

In this abbreviated edition of Sunday Morning Coming Down we pay tribute to Mother’s Day. It hadn’t even occurred to me to do so until listening to this week’s Radio Deluxe show last night. In honor of Mother’s Day the hosts played their mothers’ favorite songs.
Host John Pizzarelli played “The More I See You” by Dick Haymes in the version below with the introductory verse because that’s the one Mrs. P. preferred. The song was written by Mack Gordon and Harry Warren. John P. didn’t mention the songwriters. He credited Johnny Mandel and Ian Bernard for the arrangements on the Dick Haymes album Rain or Shine (1956), from whence it comes. It’s hard to listen to the 1966 hit version of the song by Chris Montez after hearing this one.
Host Jessica Molaskey played “These Foolish Things” by Ella Fitzgerald, also with the introductory verse. Written by Brits Eric Maschwitz and Jack Strachey, this is Betty Molaskey’s favorite song. “And still these little things remain that bring me happiness or pain.”
I want to add Stevie Wonder’s “I Just Called to Say I Love You” to this list in honor of my mom, Rivian Johnson. I’m not sure it was her favorite song, but I know she was blown away by it. Thinking Stevie Wonder was well outside the range of her taste, she asked me what the deal was with him after she heard this song on the radio in 1984. It touched her deeply. A number 1 hit all around the world at the time, Stevie wrote, arranged, and produced it. I think he played and programmed all the instruments as well. As it happened, my mom called from Florida to say she loved me just before she died of a massive stroke at the age of 66. She was just beginning to get over my dad’s death two years earlier and still beautiful in every way. I’m certainly thinking of her today.
I was born in 1934 in the city. It was depression time in our America before the Second World War put it to rest. I entered kindergarten in 1939. Nearly all of my teachers were “old maids” whose children were in their classrooms. Teaching knowledge and civility was their basic job. I remember liking them like mothers.
Real American MOTHERS WERE AT HOME THEN. BEING A MOTHER, LIKE BEING A FATHER WHO WENT TO WORK WAS GOD’S PLAN, we were told then. Both had different basic experiences and duties then.
America was GODFEARING and very safe then where I lived.!
Religiously we were JUDEO-CHRISTIAN OR JEWISH then. Saturday or Sundays were cherished for God time, to help learning and understanding civility and for the most part “loving” and sharing with thy neighbor.
MOTHERS CHERISHED TWO TO FIVE CHILDREN where I and my many relatives lived. Neighboring MOTHERS were True, Caring, Mothers in town and city where my families and my neighboring families lived. It was their sacred duty to teach their children to be truthful and Godfearing.
When World War II broke open for our America in 1941, neighbors on the home front became even closer one to another except for its males age 17 to 38 who went abroad across the Atlantic or the Pacific to win the war.
Empty lots like where I lived often became little farmlands, a lot here and another over there. The crops were shared. Back yards often lost lawns in favor of crops. Nearly all of the folks where I lived still had family connections in the farmlands here in Minnesota. But no one had any gas for autos to be driven. Gas was sent to the war front!
It was hard to get butter, meats of any kind. Milk was limited, and coffee disappeared, where here I lived. Neighbors shared.
My generation of life is all about dead now. Women have become ‘butch’ Dems instead of family Mothers. Fathers have simply disappeared…..for President, we have Joe Biden characters where truth has no meaning, but ‘thieving’ does. God Bless America has disappeared instead!
V-E Day 1945: The celebration heard ’round the world

Facts and summary, V-E Day, also written VE Day: V-E Day stands for Victory in Europe Day. In the Soviet Union it was called simply Victory Day and still goes by that name in states of the former USSR. Some early reports in the West also called the day V-Day, but V-E was more accurate, as the war still continued in the Pacific Theater. Today in France the day is called World War II Victory Day.
V-E Day was observed on May 8, 1945, in Great Britain, Western Europe, the United States and Australia, and on May 9 in the Soviet Union and New Zealand.
V-E Day commemorates the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany to the Allied forces in 1945, ending World War II in Europe. With their power-mad Fuhrer, Adolf Hitler, dead by his own hand, German military leaders signed surrender documents at several locations in Europe on May 7, capitulating to each of their victorious foes. Germany’s partner in fascism, Italy, had switched sides in 1943, though many Italians continued to fight alongside their German comrades in Italy.
Significance of V-E Day
For just over five years and eight months a war had been raging in Europe that began with Germany’s invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939. By the summer of 1941, the military of Germany’s fascist dictator Adolf Hitler had conquered or subdued virtually all of Europe from Spain’s eastern border to the western border of the Soviet Union. Italy, under the control of the fascist Benito Mussolini, was allied with Germany, and the two nations fought against the British (and later the Americans) in North Africa and Italy.
While still at war with Great Britain Hitler invaded the USSR on June 22, 1941, and on December 11 of that year he declared war on the United States of America, to honor a mutual support pact he had signed with Imperial Japan. The “European War” and the war the Japanese had been fighting in Asia and the Southwest Pacific were now a global conflict — the Second World War. Upon entering the war in December 1941, the United States agreed on a “Europe first” strategy: concentrate on defeating Germany, Italy and their satellites rather than focusing the bulk of men and resources on the war in the Pacific.
V-E Day, therefore, marked a major milestone for the Allies but did not end the war — as Allied governments pointedly reminded their citizens. Attention turned to finishing the war against Imperial Japan. Continue reading to see how the news of victory in Europe was received in Allied nations around the world and by front-line troops in Europe and the Asia-Pacific theaters.

V-E Day 1945 in the British Isles
In London, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill learned of the German surrender at 7:00 a.m. on May 7, but no official announcement was made until 7:40 that evening. The Soviet Union’s premier Josef Stalin wanted to keep to the agreed-upon schedule of holding off on announcements until May 9. Finally, Churchill growled that he was not going to give the Communist leader the satisfaction of holding up the news that was already spreading. (Germany had already informed its people of the surrender.)
Billionaire George Soros donated $1M to Stacey Abrams’ gubernatorial campaign just a few days after she qualified to run in March. He donated the funds through a super PAC. Soros made the donation through Democracy PAC II to One Georgia, Abrams’ leadership PAC.
Donating to political candidates got a little complicated this election cycle because of a new law passed by the Georgia Legislature. Last month U.S. District Judge Mark Cohen ruled that Abrams cannot raise money through a leadership committee until she wins the Democrat Party nomination. She is running unopposed.
She and Governor Kemp were both raising money with their leadership PACs before Judge Cohen’s ruling. The ruling tells the candidates that they cannot raise money without limits with the leadership PACs until they are their party’s official candidate. Abrams can use Soros’ money after she is officially named the Democrat candidate after the primary. In other words, she can keep the money in her campaign coffers but she can’t spend it yet. That is according to David Emadi, executive secretary of the state ethics commission.
The leadership committee law that the Republican-led General Assembly passed in 2021 lets the governor, the opposing party’s gubernatorial nominee, the lieutenant governor and party caucuses create special committees to raise as much cash as they can without limits. It gave incumbents an added edge since their challengers can’t use the funds until they win their party’s nomination.
It was designed in part to give Gov. Brian Kemp, who formed his leadership committee in July, a huge fundraising advantage.
However, Cohen also recently ruled that Kemp’s committee had to suspend raising any more money unless he wins his Republican primary because it was unfair that the law allowed only one person in the race to create such a committee before winning the nomination: the governor. Kemp faces former U.S. Sen. David Perdue in the GOP primary.
Abrams will be able to use a leadership committee after she wins the nomination.
David Emadi, executive secretary of the state ethics commission, said the Abrams camp can keep the Soros contribution but not spend it until after the primary.
There are limits to how much an individual or business can contribute to a candidate. Leadership PACs get around those limits. They can raise as much money as they can for a candidate. This year Soros is giving his super PAC, Democracy PAC II, $125M to sway elections across the country. He is contributing to both Democrat groups and candidates in the 2022 midterm election cycle. Democracy PAC II is run by his son.
Statewide candidates, such as those running for governor, are currently allowed to raise $7,600 from individual donors for the primary and again for the general election, plus $4,500 per runoff.
In contrast, Kemp’s leadership committee had taken checks up to $250,000 from individual donors in its first few months of operation.
The Soros family gave $1.34 million to the Georgia Democratic Party in 2018, the year Abrams first ran for governor against Kemp.
Soros and Abrams team up to raise money for causes. The billionaire socialist and the sore loser Democrat are currently raising money for abortion groups in light of the leaked draft document from the Supreme Court. Between 2016 and 2020 Soros gave over $25 million to abortion groups.
One area that Soros’ millions have made a real impact is in local races in counties across the country, including district attorneys and prosecutors. Look no further than the mess out in California with lax sentencing and bail bond “reforms” that allow dangerous criminals right back out on the street instead of being held in jail.
Soros is putting money into Alicia Walton’s race for prosecuting attorney in the 6th Judicial Circuit in Arkansas. His PAC paid for a radio ad. Interestingly, she denied it when questioned by a reporter.
“He hasn’t made a donation to us,” she said.
An advertisement recently began airing on Little Rock-area radio stations.
“She knows people are worried about their kids’ safety and don’t trust the system to treat everyone fairly,” says the male voice of the radio ad. “It’s time for a change. That’s why she supports reforms to make our communities stronger, safer and more just. As our next prosecuting attorney, she’ll prioritize violent crime, expand diversion programs that save taxpayers money, and make sure kids who make mistakes don’t become hardened criminals. She’ll ensure there is one standard of justice so everyone is treated fairly and no one is above the law. Vote for stronger, safer communities. Vote Alicia Walton for prosecuting attorney. Paid for by Arkansas Justice & Public Safety PAC.”
The Arkansas Justice & Public Safety PAC is an independent expenditure committee backed by $321,000 from Soros, according to a report filed Monday with the Arkansas secretary of state’s office.
Walton said she had no idea that the ad was on-air and paid for by Soros. She’s been too busy putting out yard signs and campaigning, you see. The Arkansas Justice & Public Safety PAC, by the way, lists Whitney Tymas of Washington, D.C. as its officer. She is the director of Black Women Forward Action Fund. The PAC spent $106,248 in April on consulting, polling, and research, none of which was with an Arkansas entity. Alice Walton is a black woman. Her opponent is a white male who criticizes Soros’ donations to groups in favor of defunding the police.
According to filings with the Federal Communications Commission, the new Arkansas PAC recently purchased advertising with several Central Arkansas radio stations.
Walton said that if they were ads for her campaign, she’s unaware of them.
“I have been so focused on my campaign, I haven’t had time to listen to the radio,” she said.
Walton said she would check into it and call a reporter back later Friday afternoon. She didn’t call back, and voicemail messages left for her weren’t returned.
Walton’s opponent, Will Jones, addressed Soros’ support of Walton.
Walton faces Will Jones in the nonpartisan race to replace retiring prosecutor Larry Jegley. Walton and Jones are both from North Little Rock. The election is May 24, along with the state’s party primary elections.
“It’s disappointing to see that a group like this that has consistently funded defund-the-police prosecutors and soft-on-crime prosecutors is trying to bring those types of policies to Central Arkansas, especially in light of the rise in violent crime that we’re currently dealing with,” Jones said of Soros’ support for his opponent.
Democrats like Soros have figured out that local elections are every bit as important as federal elections. They don’t always get the attention they deserve so a socialist billionaire can slip in and dump millions of dollars of dark money into local and state elections. Republicans figured it out a long time ago and have focused on state and county elections for several election cycles. Republicans control state legislatures in many of the battleground states. That makes a difference. It makes a difference during re-districting years, too. Republicans have full control of the legislative and executive branch in 23 states. Democrats will have full control of the legislative and executive branch in 15 states. Soros is using his vast fortune to change that around.
Soros spent approximately $3.2 million on political contributions during 2021. This is pocket change for Soros but it is notable for an off-cycle election year. His money played a part in almost every important political race in 2021 elections. He contributed to the gubernatorial campaigns of Phil Murphy in New Jersey and Terry McAuliffe in Virginia, as well as several district attorney elections. He contributes to defund the police groups, including in Austin, Texas. He spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in that city to keep the police defunded. Soros helped get Austin’s left-wing district attorney elected.
All elections make a difference, not just big ones like presidential elections. George Soros knows it. He and his minions must be very nervous about what will likely be a red tsunami coming in November.
