<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2022/08/14/donna-brazile-republicans-targeting-law-enforcement-for-doing-their-jobs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sunday on ABC’s This Week</a>, Democrat propagandist <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/donna-brazile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donna Brazile</a> claimed that by criticizing the FBI raid at former President Trump’s Florida estate, Republicans were targeting law enforcement just for doing their job.
Brazile said, “What concerns me, as you well know, is the threats, the threats to law enforcement. You had defund the police, now defund the FBI. Who is condemning that? When a small minority of Democratic lawmakers and activists said defund the police everybody was outraged: &#8216;How dare you?&#8217; Well how dare you threaten the highest order in our country, the FBI? The Republicans are mainly silent.”
She continued, “It is time to pull back. It is time to respect the rule of law.”
Pause here for convulsive laughter. Democrats demanding respect for the rule of law! Few things in politics are as amusing and predictable as the Left accusing the Right of being anti-law enforcement.
Brazile added, “It is just outrageous when I see Republican lawmakers, leaders of their party out there basically targeting law enforcement for doing their job. The former president, let’s start calling him the former president, stop calling him the president, the former president is acting and behaving like a toddler.&#8221;
The FBI isn&#8217;t being slammed by Republicans for &#8220;doing its job&#8221; and investigating an actual crime, but for serving as a secret-police arm of the Trump-hating Deep State. If the FBI wants to restore credibility and be respected for &#8220;doing its job,&#8221; it first needs to back up and investigate traitorous, failed presidential candidate <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/hillary-rodham-clinton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hillary Clinton</a>.

Brazile: GOP ‘Targeting Law Enforcement’ for Doing Their Job

<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/08/14/al-franken-endorses-liz-cheney-in-wyoming-primary/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Saturday on Twitter</a>, former comedian and senator <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/08/14/al-franken-endorses-liz-cheney-in-wyoming-primary/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Al Franken</a> (D-MN) gave his questionable endorsement to NeverTrump RINO Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) in her upcoming primary on Tuesday.
Franken, who left office after being a disgraced target of the #MeToo movement, claimed hilariously that his support of the despised Cheney will “carry a lot of weight” with Wyoming Republicans. The state’s Republican party no longer even recognizes her as a member in good standing.
“I’ve decided to endorse [Cheney] for the Republican nomination for the House seat In Wyoming it’s my first time endorsing in a GOP primary. But I think Al Franken’s support will carry a lot of weight with WY Republicans,” he tweeted.
In fact, Cheney faces a mathematically impossible path to victory in her primary challenge, with recent polls putting opponent Harriet Hageman in the lead by nearly 30 points. Knowing that Republicans will not show up for her, Cheney and her team have turned to Democrats to save her hide &#8212; to no avail.
“If it’s a big Republican vote, there aren’t enough Democrats to change it, even if we all crossed over,” former Wyoming Gov. Mike Sullivan told CNN.
“When looking only at residents who say they are Republican and likely voters in the primary, we actually see Hageman leading by roughly 50 points,” Brian Harnisch, director of the University of Wyoming’s Wyoming Survey and Analysis Center, told Newsweek.

LOL: Franken Endorses Never-Trumper Cheney in WY Primary

<a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/sen-warren-wants-expand-irs-powers-beyond-inflation-reduction-act-prepare-tax-returns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Breitbart News reports</a> that wealthy totalitarian Sen. <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/elizabeth-warren" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elizabeth &#8220;You didn&#8217;t build that&#8221; Warren</a> (D-MS) and other Democrats managed to hide, in the tax and spending bill that passed the Senate this weekend, a $15 million provision to study allowing the IRS to prepare taxes.
What could go wrong?
The Inflation Reduction Act appropriates almost $80 billion to the tax agency, which will hire 87,000 more agents over the next decade to increase tax enforcement. A small part of the funding includes $15 million dedicated to fund a task force to study the cost and feasibility of creating a free direct e-file program.
Warren wasn&#8217;t planning to wait for a task force study and already filed a bill to develop a free, online tax preparation and filing service that allows all taxpayers to prepare and file their taxes directly with the federal government instead of through private tax preparers.

The Warren proposal would move more quickly to allow filers with simple tax situations to choose a &#8220;return-free option&#8221; that provides a pre-prepared tax return with an income tax liability or refund amount already calculated. Proponents also say it would reduce tax fraud by getting third-party income information to the IRS earlier in the tax season. Her bill has 22 Senate Democrat co-sponsors.
&#8220;The average American spends 13 hours and $240 every year to file their taxes — that&#8217;s too much time and too much money,&#8221; Warren said in July. &#8220;Congress should pass my Tax Filing Simplification Act, and the IRS itself can and should adopt my plan to simplify the tax filing process for millions of Americans and lower their costs.&#8221;
If anyone thinks Warren&#8217;s motivation here is to reduce costs and headaches for the average American, they don&#8217;t know Warren, or Democrats. The motivation is to shift more power, control, and money to the ever-expanding Leviathan of Democrat government.

Warren Wants IRS Powers to Include Preparing Your Taxes

Amazon Prime Video’s new streaming series A League of Their Own — based on the 1992 baseball film — will be a “coming out” story filled with multiple LGBTQ narratives, including the return of original star, anti-Trump hysteric <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/rosie-o-donnell" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rosie O’Donnell</a> as the owner of a gay bar, <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2022/08/13/amazons-a-league-of-their-own-series-makes-lead-characters-queer-brings-back-rosie-odonnell-as-gay-bar-owner/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to a report by Yahoo! Entertainment</a>.
“It’s an iconic gay film,” said the show’s co-creator and star Abbi Jacobson, even though no one in the original film is gay. “Like, no one’s gay, but maybe they are!… I think a lot of queer people feel a connection to that film,” Jacobson added.
“We were always about expanding this lens and showcasing a generation of women playing baseball, and also showcasing the queer stories that were not told in the film,” she continued.
The queer stories not told in the film were not told because none of the characters was queer, but that isn&#8217;t an obstacle to queer activists.
In the show, a central character Carson is a married woman with a soldier husband away at war. After joining the Rockford Peaches — one of the founding All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL) teams — her teammate Greta stirs up homosexual feelings that she had previously pushed away. Meanwhile, another character Max — who has a boyfriend — is wrestling with her attraction to women.
The series, which premieres Friday on Prime Video, even touches &#8212; predictably &#8212; on the issue of transgenderism, as Max finds out that her estranged aunt has been passing as a man for years. This leads her to begin experimenting with her own gender identity.
The series will feature the return of unhinged, foul-mouthed Trump hater Rosie O’Donnell — who played third base player Doris Murphy in the 1992 film and who came out as gay in 2002 — as the owner of a LGBTQ-friendly bar where some of the players congregate in secret.
Sounds like another woke winner for Hollywood.

Rosie’s Back in Amazon’s ‘Queer’ Take On ‘A League of Their Own’

<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2022/08/12/al-gore-on-mar-a-lago-raid-im-sure-ag-garland-doj-fbi-acted-entirely-properly/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Friday on CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360</a>, climate Cassandra and former Vice President <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/al-gore" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Al Gore</a> said he is “sure” Attorney General <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/merrick-garland" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Merrick Garland</a>, the Department of Justice, and the FBI acted totally appropriately in the investigation and raid of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, FL.
Asked if it made sense to Gore why a former president would have classified documents in his Florida mansion, Gore replied, “No, it doesn’t. But I want to hasten to add, I don’t know the facts.&#8221;
Exactly right. Gore does not know the facts, and neither does CNN. But here is the inconvenient truth: the raid was a Democrat abuse of power against a political opponent that they will do everything in their power to prevent running for President again.
&#8220;I’ll tell you what I do know,&#8221; Gore added. &#8220;I know Merrick Garland, and I don’t know that our nation has ever had an attorney general who is more committed to doing things according to the book, according to the proper order. It’s unthinkable that he would take any kind of rash step or violate the regular order. I have tremendous confidence in him, his probity, and everyone who knows him and has worked with him feels the same way. So, I’m sure the Justice Department and the FBI have acted entirely properly. We will learn more about the facts as they come out.”
If Gore genuinely has that kind of confidence in the probity of the FBI, then he&#8217;s living in a delusion. No thinking American doubts any longer that the FBI is a jack-booted arm of the anti-Trump Deep State, and that this was entirely a desperate political maneuver to scuttle the election chances of an opponent that the Democrats just can&#8217;t seem to bring down legally.

Gore on Trump Raid: I’m Sure AG, DOJ, FBI ‘Acted Entirely Properly’

<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2022/08/12/maher-i-dont-think-rushdies-attacker-was-amish-islam-is-still-a-much-more-fundamentalist-religion-than-others/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Friday on HBO’s Real Time</a>, host <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/bill-maher" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bill Maher</a>, one of the rare liberals who has the intellectual independence to occasionally come down on the right side of an issue, said of author Salman Rushdie&#8217;s attacker that he thinks the suspect &#8220;probably isn&#8217;t Amish,&#8221; and then conceded that “Islam is still a much more fundamentalist religion than any of the other religions in the world.”
“We don’t know the motivation yet, but Sal did have some enemies in the past, as I recall,&#8221; Maher stated, referring to the death fatwa Iran issued against Rushdie in the late 1980s for the purported blasphemy of his novel The Satanic Verses. &#8220;So, I’m guessing Hadi Matar is not Amish. Sal…was giving a lecture — how about this for irony — about how the U.S. is a safe haven for exiled writers and other artists under threat of persecution. And making that speech itself is unthinkable in most Muslim countries. Salman Rushdie living in most Muslim countries without getting stabbed every day is unthinkable.
&#8220;So, don’t come at me with &#8216;[that&#8217;s] Islamophobic,'&#8221; he continued. &#8220;‘Phobic’ means fear, right? Well, Sal had a good reason to be fearful, and when you say ‘phobic,’ it’s just a way to shut off debate: transphobic, Islamophobic. And we should have a debate about this. Sorry, but these things don’t go away. Islam is still a much more fundamentalist religion than any of the other religions in the world, and that means they take what’s in the holy book seriously and that has been dangerous for a long time. It’s still dangerous.”
Correct, and bravo to Maher for having the courage to tell his largely Progressive audience the inconvenient truth.
