RIF Spokesman Appears on TF1's LCI to Discuss Trump's Garbageman Move

Donald Trump en éboueur, le coup de grâce pour Kamala Harris ?

As TF1 rants about "Donald Trump posing as a garbageman and whether it signals the coup de grâce against Kamala Harris", Republicans in France mans the barricades, with RIF's Erik Svane appearing on LCI's Club Info at 54:45, where he admits to finding the controversy rather amusing.

What is so maddening are the lies, the rigging, the political indifference, the intolerance, the hate

"What is so maddening are the lies, the rigging, the political indifference, the intolerance, the hate", complains Damian Bennett. All of which, to top it off, they assign to us — to us, conservatives!

What I can't fathom is the extent to which Leftists are prepared to lie, not only to others but (perhaps above all) to themselves. The afore-mentioned Damian Bennett agrees:

What is so maddening are the lies, the rigging, the political indifference, the intolerance, the hate (if that word still has the force of its actual meaning) -- all of it is in plain sight. It is before our eyes. We are lied to with the facts in evidence, with the facts attested, with the facts bearing  down. 

YET.

Yet we are lied to, ballots rigged, problems go unchecked, discussion and argument are censored. People are stoked to hate, invited to hate, instructed to hate. No surprise that the once cohering 'love thy neighbor' has been supplanted by 'hate your neighbor".

It is hard to believe the real because the real has become unreal. Precepts, custom, institutions, the law -- everything is turned on its head. It is maddening. Or perhaps I have gone mad and the world outside my brainpan is kind and loving and at peace with itself. But I truly experience the world as mad. Being mad has the benefit of reconciling one to a world fitted for the mad.

Damian Bennett has more to add regarding the "Homestretch+4 Hodge-podge":

The wait on November 5 is entering the surreal hurry-up/hold-on stage. Let's go -- but let's rack up a few more positives. [More positives racked.] Go! Go! Go! -- wait, how about just one more? Oh NO! It's DST turnback! Turn your clock back an hour! That's one more hour away from November 5!

Nice.
Nicer.
More Nicer.

  • "A Breach Of Protocol": White House Overrode Stenographers, Altered "Garbage" Transcript October 31, 2024
    The change was made after the press office “conferred with the president,” according to an internal email from the head of the stenographers’ office that was obtained by The AP. The authenticity of the email was confirmed by two government officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal matters.
    The supervisor, in the email, called the press office’s handling of the matter a breach of protocol and spoliation of transcript integrity between the Stenography and Press Offices.”
    The two-person stenography team on duty that evening, a “typer” and a “proofer” said that any edits to the official transcript would have to be approved by their supervisor, the head of the stenographer's office — who was unavailable. Because of this, the White House press office went ahead and published an altered transcript on the White House website and distributed it to the press and social media in a mad scramble.
    The supervisor did not like that: “If there is a difference in interpretation, the Press Office may choose to withhold the transcript but cannot edit it independently. ... Our Stenography Office transcript — released to our distro, which includes the National Archives — is now different than the version edited and released to the public by Press Office staff.”

Interviewed by Epoch Times France, Karsenty Shares 4 Pictures Summarizing Donald Trump the Best Way Possible


One of the members of the Republicans in France group was interviewed by Etienne Fauchaire of the French version of Epoch Times.

Epoch Times : Donald Trump à la friteuse chez McDo, puis en tenue d’éboueur à bord d’un camion poubelle. Que vous inspirent ces dernières images de campagne ?

Philippe Karsenty: Que Donald Trump est tout simplement génial, qu’il est une bouffée d’air frais dans un univers politique convenu et sclérosé, tant en Europe qu’aux Etats-Unis.

Pour peu que l’on s’éloigne de la propagande des médias dominants, sa dynamique est enthousiasmante. Contrairement à ce que l’on a essayé de nous faire croire, la joie, la créativité et l’innovation sont bien du côté des républicains.

D’ailleurs, que retenir de la campagne de Kamala Harris si ce n’est une candidate lisant son prompteur entre deux ricanements ? Ceux qui en doutent doivent absolument aller l’écouter en VO sur Youtube : c’est affligeant !

En revanche, Donald Trump fait preuve d’intelligence, de courage physique et de capacité d’adaptation, étant même en mesure de retourner les situations les plus difficiles.

 … Imaginons Kamala Harris face à des dirigeants comme Xi Jinping, Poutine ou Erdogan — elle manquerait du niveau intellectuel et de la force de caractère nécessaires pour leur tenir tête. Le vrai risque qui nous guette en cas d’élection de Kamala Harris n’est donc pas celui d’un conflit mondial, mais d’une capitulation du monde libre.

Furthermore, RIF's Philippe Karsenty appeared recently on the BFMTV channel show, telling the presenters as well as French viewers, some truths they are not used to hearing….

Philippe Karsenty joins the debate at the 15th minute.

RIF's Anntoinette Danskin Finds It Seductive that Men Wish to Defend Women


Donald Trump multiplie les attaques contre les femmes 

As TF1's Marie-Aline Meliyi rants about "Donald Trump multiplying attacks against women", Republicans in France (wo)mans the barricades, with RIF's Anntoinette Danskin appearing on LCI's Club Meliyi at 1:08:44 and more specifically at 1:10:57.

Do You Know What Abraham Lincoln Called the Democrats, President Trump? The Locofocos


Did you know that in the 1850s, members of the Democrat party were referred to regularly as fire eaters or as locofocos?

It kind of sounds like my calling them drama queens, with BDS and TDS being replaced by LDS (Lincoln Derangement Syndrome), does it not?

Just as one of this blog's most prominent posts over the past 20 years explained how we are (now) living in The Era of the Drama Queens.

As talk over the past four or five years has warned of a second civil war, doesn't it sound like the Democrats have not changed an iota since the 1850s and perhaps even since the party's foundation by Andrew Jackson?

That, after all, was the thesis of Dinesh D'Souza's book and film on The Secret History of the Democratic Party (in which King Andrew the First plays a prominent role).

Moreover, as I have written before, prior to his becoming the Republican Party's 1860 candidate, Abraham Lincoln held a speech in February 1860 (indeed, his Cooper Union speech galvanized the Republicans to eventually choose him as their candidate) in which he told his audience how he would address himself to them as if they were composed of Southerners and Democrats:

  … when you speak of us Republicans, you do so only to denounce us as reptiles, or, at the best, as no better than outlaws. You will grant a hearing to pirates or murderers, but nothing like it to [Republicans]. In all your contentions with one another, each of you deems an unconditional condemnation of [Republicanism] as the first thing to be attended to. Indeed, such condemnation of us seems to be an indispensable prerequisite — license, so to speak — among you to be admitted or permitted to speak at all. Now, can you, or not, be prevailed upon to pause and to consider whether this is quite just to us, or even to yourselves? Bring forward your charges and specifications, and then be patient long enough to hear us deny or justify.
How many democrats amd MSM outlets in this day and age are willing to be "patient … to hear [Republicans] deny or justify"? Don't CNN, MSNBC, and the New York Times deem "an unconditional condemnation of [Republicanism or Trumpism] as the first thing to be attended to"? "Reptiles, outlaws, pirates, murderers"… How often have Republicans been called (domestic) terrorists in the past years?  (And in the years, in the decades, before that?).

Doesn't Lincoln's Cooper Union speech sound like something a Donald Trump or a George Bush could legitimately say (obviously, in different words) in the 21st century?

Locofocos. Fire eaters. Drama Queens.

As their name implies, the leftists' raison d'être is to constantly search for melodrama, to find offense in everything, and to lie, or at least to exaggerate, to the very limits of reason (the first example in more recent times that comes to mind being Ed Driscoll's observation that every Republican candidate since the 1940s has been likened to none other than Adolf Hitler).

(This led to another of my posts on — present-day — leftists: The Leftist Worldview in a Nutshell: A world of Deserving Dreamers Vs. Despicable Deplorables.)

The hysterics of such locofocos is what leads to the Democrats' creation of the Ku Klux Klan, Antifa, and Black Lives Matter, along with opening fire on Fort Sumter. And by the way, before you mention racism, don't forget: the Southern slave states of the 19th century were all solidly Democrat, just as later, the (same) Jim Crow states of the 20th century were all solidly Democrat.

In that perspective, another lie, as we have seen, is that, contrary to modern leftists' contention that the two parties have switched since the Civil War era, such people as Dinesh D'Souza and Prager University's Carol Swain have demonstrated that during the so-called Big Switch, only one single solitary Dixiecrat in fact joined the Republicans while in the very first election after the Nixon/Ford administrations, and their alleged winning "Southern Strategy," the South was swept by the Democratic nominee, Jimmy Carter.

Again, as I have written before, we have all heard that the debate about what caused secession and ergo the Civil War: Was It Slavery and/or States' Rights? Wasn't It Rather Something Else — the Election of a Ghastly Republican to the White House? The victory of such a despicable being made the Democrats' locofocos go bat-shit crazy and proceed to tear the country for the next four years apart… That wouldn't sound like the 2016 election (or the 2020 election, or the 2024 election) now, would it?

Remember, the Kamala-Tim campaign is a preview of a Kamala-Tim presidency

Seven long days to go, sighs Damian Bennett as he proceeds to comment on the Clippings From KA-mala's I-Once-Ran-For-President Scrapbook:

Remember, the H-W campaign is a preview of a H-W presidency. Proceed.
Wah-what? Who is she talking about at the granulate level? Not me. V de T, you bad girl, are you supporting KA-mala? DH? ES, hey, you can't vote! -- Oh. Wait.

KA-mala is just making memories for her I-once-ran-for-president scrapbook.

I have to ask you to sit down before reading further. [Chairs scuffing the floor. Seats taken.] Alright, everyone, bum to seat? You are about to crash into a self-aggrandizing homo mensura anthropocentric pure play. Steady.

‘Twisted’: KA-mala Roasted For Suggesting ‘God Expects Us To Help Him’ By Voting For Her October 28, 2024
KA-mala (at the Church of Christian Compassion in West Philadelphia)“In just nine days we have the power to decide the fate of our nation for generations to come. And on this day then, on this beautiful Sunday morning, I am reminded God expects us to help Him.”

God has fallen on hard times. It reminds of the other day when God asked for a hand with raking leaves. Or last Tuesday for the loan of a fiver. Breathtaking. Read the comments at the link, brutal. "I am reminded..." By whom?


She is in a Christian church and leads with complete ignorance of basic Christian teaching on man's relationship to God. 


Fact Checked: Endorsed by Moloch. KA-mala: "I'm KA-mala, and I approve this paid political endorsement."


Different god, different 'accent':


Meanwhile back at the Sad Café:
"Hey, Nancy! I got your 6!"
Strong Memorable finish, Joe.

One of this blog's pivotal posts (on Trump's alleged "baseless claims" about the 2020 election) appears in Danish: Lad os holde op med at bruge ordene “Trump forsøgte at omstøde valget i 2020”


It is easier for the world to accept
a simple lie than a complex truth

— Alexis de Tocqueville

Over the past 10 months, I have been translating, or having translated, one of this blog's most important posts of the past 4 years, into some of the languages I know — indeed of the past 20 years, since the post addresses one of the biggest scams of the 21st century.

Namely, Let's Stop Using the Words "Trump Tried to Overturn the 2020 Election" (It's Unprofessional Journalism), which appeared on American Thinker on the second day of 2024, just in time for the January 6th anniversary (mange tak for Instapundit linken)…

After appearing in Portuguese or in Brazilian, as well as in French, the post is now in Danish. Actually, it is a far lengthier version thereof, as I have been adding important issues to the article in the following months.

De kommer ikke forbi! de vil ikke bestå! Without further ado, here is a longer version of my January 2 post in Danish:

Lad os holde op med at bruge ordene “Trump forsøgte at omstøde valget i 2020” (Det er uprofessionel journalistik)

White House Tenant (JFK) Attends 1962's Madison Square Garden Nazi Rally

 

In response to the Democrats' Nazi smear about Adolf Trump (whatever happened to Godwin's Law?!), a lot has been said about Bill Clinton and Al Gore's visit to the Madison Square Garden in the 1990s and indeed to Bill's wife Hillary visit to the venue around 2001. But Damian Bennett reminds us about an even bigger icon of the Donkey Party — the biggest, ever? — holding a Nazi rally there.

Overall I think the MSG rally was well executed. I kept thinking what a Herculean task to keep the show rolling to schedule. The MSG spotlight in front of a massive audience had more than one speaker find his/her larger oratorical self. The casting -- there were a few odd choices -- must have had something to do with the NY dynamic, speakers that hit some specific NY nerve. I can't really say as I've been out of the NY dynamic for so long. However there was one unexpected speaker:
 
Oh. Wait. That was President John F. Kennedy attending the 1962 Madison Square Garden Nazi Rally.
  • NYC Mayor [Eric Adams (D)] Says Trump Not A Fascist, Urges Politicians To 'Dial Down The Temperature' October 27, 2024
    “I know what Hitler has done, and I know what a fascist regime looks like. I think, as I have called for over and over again, that the level of conversation, I think we can all dial down the temperature,” Adams said at the conference in which he also detailed a significant police presence planned for Trump’s event at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan Sunday. He made the comment after Vice President Kamala Harris and her surrogates criticized Trump in recent days...
  • Worst. Nazi. Rally. Ever. October 27, 2024

T-V is teasing NY in play:
fivethirtyeight.com currently puts DJT's NY chances at 1%. I think the general plan is to deny H-W big NY numbers and fluff up T-V's national popular vote numbers. OK. But elsewhere...

Let's take stock. DOMINANCE, MOMENTUM, TIME -- all are on DJT's side. 
All the same tough 8 days ahead.
 Duncan adds that

It took me a while to get my jaw off the floor. What a pathetic smear. I don't think even the densest idiot wouldn't fall for that. The media claims sound like propaganda.

Thus writes our friend Duncan in response to take on Damian Bennett's take on Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden event and the following Democrats' Nazi smear. Earlier, Damian was writing about the Joe Rogan podcast:

The Trump sit-down on Rogan dropped yesterday -- 2:58:49 hours; 9,890,083 views (on YouTube alone).


If you follow Trump there's not much new here. (Highlight reel at ZeroHedge.) Trump works the 'weave', but Rogan provides some needed 'herding cats' discipline to the conversation. It was a congenial conversation throughout (Rogan surprisingly passed on Operation Warp Speed) but nothing much new. (Wait a minute, what about eliminating the income tax? Nope, DJT had entertained this during his Bronx barbershop confab.) Yet. This was a very consequential event. Why? Aside from the massive audience reach of Rogan -- introducing DJT shed of negative media taints -- Trump on Rogan begs why NOT KA-mala on Rogan.
What's a girl to do? Go on Rogan and risk a hazardous long-form conversation OR not go on Rogan and forfeit the homestretch exposure?
Not Rogan. Instead, Beyoncé and CBS News. [Pause.] CBS. Yeah. That CBS News

Oh. About that Beyoncé thing.
Hhmmm. Fool me once...
Presidential campaigns serve two purposes: (1) to introduce the candidate and party policy slate; (2) to preview by analogy how well a candidate will run his/her presidency. H-W campaign is clinging to the consensus punditry calling this a close race. SOooo in the run-up crunch to the November vote you might think that H-W would be extra-special-super-tippy-toe careful about screw-ups and unforced errors. [Pause.] You might think. [Strap in. Skim alert!]
That's October. So far. [Pause.] Take note, the H-W campaign is a H-W presidency in miniature. Imagine the H-W campaign scaled up to the size of the United States presidency.
