Fox Host Blasts ‘Woke’ LeBron James Over China Support
On Fox Nation’s UNPC Friday, host Britt McHenry called NBA star Lebron James a “hypocrite” and “fraud” for criticizing an NBA exec who expressed support for pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong.
After the Houston Rockets general manager tweeted support for demonstrators opposing the repressive Communist regime in Hong Kong, James claimed the GM “wasn’t educated” on the issue. “So many people could have been harmed not only financially but physically, emotionally and spiritually” James told reporters. “Yes, we do have freedom of speech, but there can be a lot of negative that comes with that too.”
“In this scenario, he’s a hypocrite. He’s a fraud. He is defending China,” said McHenry. “Oh, so you’re all about being ‘woke’… when it’s not affecting your bottom line. When it’s not a country with 500 million people watching the NBA with a streaming app that’s worth $1.5 billion to the NBA… Shame on him.”
James has an endorsement deal with Nike that may pay him more than $1 billion. Nike garnered $6.2 billion of revenue in China in its 2019 fiscal year.
Waters: Trump is ‘the Most Corrupt Man in America’
After the White House chief of staff issued a statement Thursday saying there was “absolutely no quid pro quo between Ukrainian military aid and any investigation into the 2016 election,” Rep. Maxine Waters called President Trump “the most corrupt man in America.”
“There was a quid pro quo. Absolutely,” the impeachment-obsessed Waters claimed on CNN’s OutFront, “The president is talking about the reason he’s into this altogether is simply he’s trying to get the president of the Ukraine to investigate corruption.
“He’s the most corrupt man in America, the president of the United States who has cheated, you know, contractor, subcontractors, won’t show his own tax returns to Americans, who has cheated students who in the fake university so-called up in New York, the Trump University and he’s talking about, he’s going all of the way to Ukraine so that he can get the president to investigate corruption. Give me a break. They’re liars. They’re cheaters. These are con men,” Waters ranted.
Waters is arguably the most corrupt member of Congress and an inveterate smearer of her political opponents. Click the profile link above to learn more.
Jones: Hillary Smearing Gabbard Plays Into Russia’s Hands
On CNN’s OutFront Friday, host Van Jones stated that failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s recent podcast attack on 2020 White House contender Tulsi Gabbard — suggesting Gabbard is a Russian asset being groomed as a third-party spoiler candidate — is a “smear” that is “playing right into the Russians’ hands.”
“She’s playing a very dangerous game,” Jones warned. “I mean, Hillary Clinton, if you’re concerned about disinformation, if you’re concerned — what the Russians do is they spread disinformation, they get us divided against each other. That is what just happened, just throw out some information — disinformation, smear somebody.”
“Hillary Clinton’s playing a very dangerous game,” he later reiterated. “If you’ve got real evidence, come forward with it. But if you’re just going to smear people casually on podcasts, you are playing right into the Russians’ hands.”
The independent-minded Gabbard has been seen as a threat by other candidates in her party as well.
Gabbard Tears Into Hillary Over ‘Russian Asset’ Accusation
White House hopeful Tulsi Gabbard lashed out at failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Friday, calling her the “queen of warmongers” for smearing her in the mainstream media as a Russian asset.
In a podcast earlier Friday, Hillary suggested Gabbard was being “groomed” by Russia as a potential third-party candidate, calling her “the favorite of the Russians.” This echoed an accusation last weekend by the New York Times, which called Gabbard “a potentially useful vector for Russian efforts to sow division within the Democratic Party.”
“Thank you @HillaryClinton,” Gabbard tweeted. “You, the queen of warmongers, embodiment of corruption, and personification of the rot that has sickened the Democratic Party for so long, have finally come out from behind the curtain.” She went on to say Hillary was behind the “campaign to destroy my reputation.”
“It’s now clear that this primary is between you and me. Don’t cowardly hide behind your proxies. Join the race directly,” Gabbard challenged.
Biden Campaign Selling ‘Beat Him Like a Drum’ T-Shirt
White House contender Joe Biden’s campaign is now selling t-shirts with the slogan “beat him like a drum” — referring to the floundering candidate’s promise to soundly defeat President Trump in the 2020 election.
Biden used the phrase in Tuesday’s Democrat presidential debate — not for the first time — while defending himself and son Hunter against accusations of nepotism and corruption in Ukraine and China.
“My son did nothing wrong. I did nothing wrong. I carried out the policy of the United States government in rooting out corruption in Ukraine,” Biden protested. “The president and his thugs are lying. He doesn’t want me to be the candidate. If I’m the candidate, he knows I will beat him like a drum.”
Apart from the fact that Biden doesn’t stand a chance against Trump, imagine the Democrat outrage if Trump supporters wore a slogan urging violence against Biden.
Priced at $30, the t-shirt is available for pre-order to begin shipping on October 29th, according to Breitbart.
Steyer Wants Impeachment Inquiry Made Public
Billionaire presidential hopeful Tom Steyer called on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to open her “impeachment inquiry” to the public rather than hold it in secret.
“Poll after poll show that the majority of Americans now support the President’s impeachment and removal from office,” wrote Steyer in a statement released on Friday. “Now is the time for House Democrats to open up the process and let the American public see the full extent of Trump’s criminal behavior. Holding public impeachment hearings will ensure the crimes committed by him and those around him come out from the shadows and onto the national stage…
“The process started with the American people raising their voices and demanding Trump be held accountable, and it will end with the removal of the most lawless president in our nation’s history if Congress makes all of the evidence publicly available,” added Steyer.
Republicans also want the inquiry made public — because it will exonerate Trump.
