<p>It&#8217;s been a constant as far back as most of us can remember that Democrats have been playing fast and loose with their variation of the sociopathic mental disorder known as <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/projection" target="_blank" rel="noopener">projection</a>: disparaging others for doing what they knowingly do themselves.</p>
<p>Today&#8217;s Democrat Party and their media depend on the cultivated ignorance of their voters to portray Republicans as extremists for daring to look into numerous, blatant irregularities in the 2020 election while demanding the American people accept Democrat victories as legit and final simply because they say so. No denial is tolerated when the Democrat wins.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you&#8217;re talking about a political party that&#8217;s been around as long as the Democrats, you can say they&#8217;re a lot of things; stupid isn&#8217;t one of them.</p>
<p>During Donald Trump&#8217;s first term, Democrats were in vocal and legislative opposition but they weren&#8217;t hurting financially either. Their personal portfolios have benefited like those of millions of Americans. But after the 2018 midterms, a political fissure erupted within the Democrat Party; a fissure that was unprecedented and probably horrifying to blindsided leadership.</p>
<p>It was called gross insubordination by punk ass freshmen.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi.jpeg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-14021 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-150x100.jpeg" alt="" width="150" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-150x100.jpeg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-500x333.jpeg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-768x511.jpeg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-360x240.jpeg 360w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-600x400.jpeg 600w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi.jpeg 1000w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a><strong>Speaker Nancy Pelosi implored her majority, after days of high-profile public infighting, to focus on common goals — including defeating President Donald Trump — and to silence the sniping that threatens their fragile hold on power.</strong> The lengthy closed-door session underscored the broader divisions between her centrist and liberal members — and between Pelosi and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez with her “squad” of star-power freshmen — that are testing party unity and reshaping Democrats ahead of the 2020 election.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;">“We’re a family and we have our moments,” Pelosi told colleagues. “You got a complaint? You come and talk to me about it. But do not tweet about our members and expect us to think that that is just OK.”</span></strong><br />

<p>Incoming freshmen were traditionally given closet-size rooms on the top floor of the Cannon House Office Building, furthest away from the elevator and closest to the stairs. They <em>may</em> receive insignificant committee assignments, if at all. Their first term was one of learning the ropes, and above all else, respecting the established hierarchy. The 2018 Democrat freshmen class, led by AOC, blew that up.</p>

They, especially a Democrat speaker, don&#8217;t like it when they&#8217;re accused by petulant &#8220;women of color&#8221; freshmen. You know Pelosi was privately fuming&#8230;.</p>
<p>According to the media, there was a reconciliation.</p>
<p>Really?</p>

If you go by James Carville&#8217;s &#8220;It&#8217;s the economy, stupid&#8221;, higher ups within the DNC were probably ready to throw in the 2020 towel. But there was another problem: AOC and the Squad had the attention of millions, they were driving a socialist agenda that was way too radical for a party that always tried to appear level-headed and &#8220;moderate&#8221;. The Squad&#8217;s followers were rabid and out of the control of Pelosi and other senior party members.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>Could the total upheaval of norms we&#8217;re seeing today be a plot to assure Democrats lose ugly in 2020?</strong></span></h2>
<p>After every presidential election, there is that customary public postmortem.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-hands-up.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-14375 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-hands-up-150x100.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-hands-up-150x100.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-hands-up-500x334.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-hands-up-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-hands-up-360x240.jpg 360w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-hands-up-600x400.jpg 600w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Pelosi-hands-up.jpg 940w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Speaker Pelosi will not accept any blame for a Trump landslide victory. She will not pile on the Democratic National Committee or any party PAC. Democrat Capitol Hill leadership will not assume responsibility for an electoral beat down. Despite any political loss, Pelosi and her party leadership will personally weather any storm so burning down the house will not put them on the street.</p>
<p>However, Democrats <em>might</em> blame a 2020 presidential and down-ballot shellacking on the disastrous messaging from irrational freshmen and call for a more reasoned and traditional agenda for the Democrat Party. Translation: they&#8217;ll summarily set the insubordinate children up to be primaried and hopefully banished in 2022.</p>
<p>Seriously, even the staunchest of Democrats weren&#8217;t for a job-killing Green New Deal, let alone the violence and destruction associated with #BlackLivesMatter and a George Floyd crisis not wasted. Most Democrat voters aren&#8217;t for dismantling police forces around the country. Liberal CEOs, professionals, academics, entertainment celebrities, and other big money donors nationwide are being bit by the millennials&#8217; #CancelCulture and you know whose private phone numbers they have on speed dial.</p>
<p>Maybe the party is giving their socialist know-it-all loudmouths the rope to hang themselves.</p>

The Democrat base is being set up for a face plant into the concrete. Look who they&#8217;re presenting to their base as the party presidential nominee. A possibly senile old man who really has nothing to lose when it comes to a political career, unlike those whose names are being bandied about. Why do you think it&#8217;s taking so long for Joe Biden&#8217;s campaign to find a running mate? Who&#8217;s going to want that on a resume once the long knives of finger-pointing begins the morning after a Trump landslide?</p>
<p>A mass defection to Donald Trump combined with a depressed party turnout mean Democrats could find themselves in the minority again. Do you really think Nancy Pelosi will accept blame when having to give up the gavel while positioning herself to be Minority Leader? Do you think any of the senior members will decide embracing and publicly justifying socialism, CHOP zones, vandalism and/or removal of monuments, and &#8220;mostly peaceful&#8221; protests in the streets will be the template for 2022 success?</p>

<p>Washington, D.C. should be renamed to what it&#8217;s always been known for: Washington CYA. Specifically, that&#8217;s how Democrats become old Democrats.</p>
<p>There will be a concerted effort, should the Election 2020 Democrat ass-whuppin&#8217; be felt from Capitol Hill down through every state legislature, to have a message publicly sent that things will go back to the ways they&#8217;ve always been done. Democrats will again want to appear moderate and they&#8217;ll promise to go back to their safer default where they can <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/post/pelosi-defends-her-infamous-health-care-remark/2012/06/20/gJQAqch6qV_blog.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>&#8220;pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it&#8221;</em></a>.</p>
<p>The media will be directed to turn on The Squad. Their arrogance will be highlighted and replayed in slow motion. Apologies won&#8217;t be issued, making matters worse. The inside-the-Beltway establishment will assert their rightful authority, showing no desire to spare the rod. Like the old days, these children will be spanked in the street for all to see.</p>

<p>Who does that?</p>
<p>Again, the question should be why&#8230;.</p>

<p>But that didn&#8217;t stop Ronna from basking in yet another Fox News appearance to make excuses for defeats by blaming the candidate: a deflection that will surely be employed for years to come.</p>

And while her tenure as chair has brought in highly-touted record amounts of fundraising for the party, like most nonprofits, the only people who appear to benefit are those within the GOP apparatus. Certainly not down-ballot candidates or ultimately Republican voters.</p>

According to <a href="https://www.fec.gov/data/committee/C00003418/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">FEC filings in 2019</a> alone, it appears <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>a whopping 71%</strong></span> of the monies raised in 2019 has gone to &#8220;operating expenditures&#8221;, meaning pricey office spaces, travel costs, lots of meals, overhead expenses and very generous GOP staff salaries that keep them visibly well fed.</p>

<p>If 2018 was any indication, it doesn&#8217;t appear that the Republican Party supports <a href="https://docquery.fec.gov/cgi-bin/forms/C00003418/1233307/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">state and/or local candidates</a> if at all.</p>

The state and local Republican <em>(nonprofit)</em> parties don&#8217;t appear to be any better off as those at the top find it easier to blame their voters and not their lackluster attempt to inspire them with a solid ground game and exciting candidates.</p>
<p>For example, Bill Card, Chairman of the Prince William County Republican Committee in Virginia laid most of the blame for 2019 flips of Democrat-to-Republican seats on GOP voters and did so on local Washington, D.C. radio.</p>

<p>Between hiring inexperienced, victory-challenged millennials to charge top dollar and consistently run losing campaigns to lazy and literally fat-and-happy heads of state and local Republican parties who show little interest in providing near zero evidence that Republicans are even on the ballot, it&#8217;s no wonder why disciplined Democrats are winning seats previously held by Republicans for decades.</p>

While those running the national, state and local Republican parties will continue to absolve themselves of results that would have gotten them run off The Apprentice long ago, Republicans in many locales will be forced to endure higher taxation, sanctuary states, counties and/or cities, infanticide on demand, anti-police #BlackLivesMatter and #Antifa promotion, assaults on the 2nd Amendment, <a href="https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=LGBTQIAP%2B" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">LGBTQIAP+</a> anything and everything in schools, climate change mandates, Muslim special treatment, voting rights for super majority Democrat felons, gerrymandering run amok, pro-illegal alien programs and oversized welcome mats for &#8220;refugees&#8221;, complete with every housing, food and cash demand that can be doled out at taxpayer expense.</p>
<p>Yes, this is what happens when Republicans don&#8217;t vote.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also what happens when the RNC party leadership provides little-to-no support for candidates, that is if we don&#8217;t provide Democrats the gift of more <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2018/10/10/fireronna-39-house-races-had-no-republican-candidate-on-the-ballot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">uncontested seats</a>.</p>

<p>Only someone who considers donors and voters stupid could make such a blatantly dishonest statement on national television with a smile.</p>
<p>Ronna Romney McDaniel is a self-serving, empty plus-size and the continued examples of her failed &#8220;leadership&#8221; has tricked down to the local level and the Republican Party is being made quite irrelevant.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s almost like this could be part of some divine plan to plow a path for a possible savior.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is not meant to become an elongated theological discussion but just asking a mere hypothetical.</p>
<p>When the prophet Isaiah ben Amoz wrote Book of Isaiah, chapter 11, verse six&#8230;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">The wolf shall dwell with the lamb,</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together;</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;"><strong>and a little child shall lead them</strong>.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah+11%3A6-9&amp;version=ESV" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Book of Isaiah, 11:6</a></p>
<p>&#8230; do you think he would&#8217;ve added a few caveats knowing a future society would produce a couple generations of arrogant, self-absorbed narcissists that would inevitably rise to a modicum of power and influence?</p>
<p>What if we could&#8217;ve used Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) as a hypothetical&#8230;?</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" class="rumble" src="https://rumble.com/embed/vj7xg6/?pub=6btuj" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe><br />
It would&#8217;ve been an interesting conversation to have been had.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While the political world in the United States over the last three years has been focused on Russian interference in our election; an accusation we most surely wouldn&#8217;t have heard had Hillary Clinton been elected, it appears manipulation of votes has happened on a mass scale and it&#8217;s not a foreign problem.</p>
<p>It appears to be very domestic.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://twitter.com/drrepstein" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-5003 size-medium" title="Dr. Robert Epstein" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Epstein-1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Epstein-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Epstein-1-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Epstein-1.jpg 400w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Epstein-1-125x125.jpg 125w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a><span style="color: #333399;">The idea that Google is subtly pushing masses of voters to the left has the ring of conspiracy, and thus the work of Robert Epstein is warmly embraced by conservative lawmakers — as well as a president — convinced big tech is plotting against them.</span></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #333399;">Epstein, a former Psychology Today editor in chief who runs a nonprofit institute in California, calls the phenomenon he has explored the </span><strong><a href="https://www.pnas.org/content/112/33/E4512" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Search Engine Manipulation Effect</a></strong><span style="color: #333399;">. <strong>“These are new forms of manipulation people can’t see,”</strong> he said. <strong>The technologies “can have an enormous impact on voters who are undecided. … People have no awareness the influence is being exerted.”</strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #333399;">Google dismisses his research as the work of a misguided amateur. Company Chief Executive</span> <a class="Link" href="https://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-google-congress-pichai-20181211-story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sundar Pichai said at a House Judiciary Committee</a> <span style="color: #333399;">hearing in December that Google had investigated Epstein’s findings and found his methodology flawed.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333399;">&#8212; </span><a href="https://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-google-search-bias-elections-20190322-story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Los Angeles Times, 3/24/19</a></p>
<p>Of course they would, but to be fair, Google shouldn&#8217;t be singled out. Facebook and Twitter have similar capabilities and accusations of their abuse of right-leaning users abound.</p>
<p>Judge for yourself if Epstein is this &#8220;misguided amatuer&#8221; or if he&#8217;s hitting too close to home for Big Democrat Tech&#8230;.</p>
<div style="width: 600px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-4999-1" width="600" height="338" poster="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Epstein.jpg" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/DontBeGoogle.mp4?_=1" /><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/DontBeGoogle.mp4">https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/DontBeGoogle.mp4</a></video></div>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">&#8230;</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #333399;">More Americans voted for Hillary Clinton than any other losing presidential candidate in US history. The Democrat outpaced President-elect Donald Trump by almost <strong>2.9 million votes</strong>, with 65,844,954 (48.2%) to his 62,979,879 (46.1%), according to revised and certified final election results from all 50 states and the District of Columbia.</span><br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-99752 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Illegal-voting-150x100.png" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Illegal-voting-150x100.png 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Illegal-voting.png 300w" alt="" width="150" height="100" />By the year 2018 in the United States of America, the rules for running and participating in an election should be easy.</p>
<p>One has months to make sure he or she is registered to vote. There are many ways to do this: register by mail or find a way to get to an office by way of the same modes of transportation as one uses to go to a supermarket or coffee shop or a mall. Voting is accomplished by the same means and millions of taxpayer dollars are allocated to election divisions on the local level to assure all votes are counted on Election Night so winners and losers are certified and the American people know who their representatives will be.</p>
<p>At least that’s the way it’s supposed to be and was until a few years ago. For example….</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a title="Ballot harvesting in Santa Clarita, CA" href="https://youtu.be/0s-9Q_N09H0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-132025 size-medium" title="Ballot harvesting in Santa Clarita, CA" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Ballot-harvesting-150x96.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Ballot-harvesting-150x96.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Ballot-harvesting-500x319.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Ballot-harvesting.jpg 642w" alt="" width="150" height="96" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">In 2016, California Gov. Jerry Brown opened the door to fraud by signing a law allowing anyone to drop off a ballot for another person. This gave rise to a new practice known as “<strong>ballot harvesting</strong>” in which Democratic Party canvassers visited people who had not voted on Election Day and collected their mail-in ballots and turned them in on their behalf.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">So what the Democrats did was they looked at the Election Day returns and then targeted those districts they lost but where the margin was close enough that victory might be snatched from the jaws of defeat by a little ballot harvesting.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">—</span> <a href="https://www.westernjournal.com/dick-morris-dems-stole-seven-house-seats-california/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dick Morris, 12/3/18</a></p>
<p>So, it appears<strong> the electorate officially votes until a certain time and the results are observed unless the Democrat is losing. Then all efforts must be made to “count every vote” until the Democrat wins.</strong> At least that’s the only impression one can walk away with after the 2018 midterm elections.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="TJ Cox (D)" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/TJ-Cox.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-131281 size-thumbnail" title="TJ Cox (D)" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/TJ-Cox-103x103.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 103px) 100vw, 103px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/TJ-Cox-103x103.jpg 103w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/TJ-Cox-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="103" height="103" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">Fresno Democrat TJ Cox has overtaken incumbent David Valadao in their race for California’s 21st Congressional District seat. Cox now holds a 438-vote over the Hanford Republican – 55,650 votes to 55,212. This is Cox’s first lead in the race. It appears Cox is on his way to delivering Democrats their 40th flipped seat – one that analysts and news media called for Valadao on election night.</span><br />

<p>Why are there “ballots left to count”? For previous decades until today, what happened to all of those ballots after races were called on election nights of the past? Were they left in some room or destroyed?</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="Katie Porter (D)" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Katie-Porter.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-131885 size-thumbnail" title="Katie Porter (D)" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Katie-Porter-100x100.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Katie-Porter-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Katie-Porter-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">Southern California Rep. Mimi Walters was ousted Thursday night, the latest House Republican to lose their seat in the formerly deep-red Orange County. The Associated Press called the 45th congressional district race with Democrat Katie Porter leading Walters, a two-term incumbent who previously served in the California senate, by just over 6,000 votes as ballots continue to be counted.</span><br />

<p>Sorry, but I can’t remember votes being counted the weekend after an election in years past.</p>
<p>Must be the “new normal” when a Democrat is losing.</p>

The Florida secretary of state reported 900 fewer votes than were tallied originally, and that number is expected to balloon by 2,000 more votes when results from Broward County are reported. Although this number of votes would not necessarily swing the election from one candidate to another, it’s certainly enough to cause concern.</span><br />

<p>Broward County isn’t some rinky-dink, podunk in the sticks.</p>

<p>Florida has allocated <a href="http://www.broward.org/Budget/Documents/FY18/ElectedOfficialsFY18AdoptedOperating.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">millions of dollars</a> to staff and maintain their election apparatus yet they still manage to be a national example of gross incompetence, conveniently helmed by a black woman of equally questionable competence.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="Brenda Snipes, Supervisor of Elections for Broward County, Florida" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/BrendaSnipes.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-131282 size-thumbnail" title="Brenda Snipes, Supervisor of Elections for Broward County, Florida" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/BrendaSnipes-103x103.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 103px) 100vw, 103px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/BrendaSnipes-103x103.jpg 103w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/BrendaSnipes-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="103" height="103" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">Broward County’s ballot recount hit yet another snag Saturday with 2,040 ballots lost or misplaced. The county’s eternally beleaguered Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes said they either misplaced, misfiled or mixed in with another stack. One thing she said she was sure of: “The ballots are in this building. There would be nowhere else for them to be,” Snipes said. “The ballots are in the building. The ballots are in the building.”</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">With a noon Sunday deadline looming, the three-person Canvassing Board was nonplussed and uncertain what to do. “We are concerned with the ramifications of failing to complete this task,” said Broward County Judge Betsy Benson, a member of the board. “But we don’t want to disenfranchise 714,859 voters at the expense of 2,000 voters.”</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">With no chance of the missing ballots surfacing, the proposed fix involves some math.</span><br />

<p>If any of us “lost” the very work materials necessary to do our jobs, we’d be reprimanded at the least. If it happened repeatedly and your name became a national adjective, you’d lose your job in a heartbeat.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="Brenda Snipes" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Brenda-Snipes.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-131882 size-thumbnail" title="Brenda Snipes" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Brenda-Snipes-100x100.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Brenda-Snipes-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Brenda-Snipes-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">Gov. Rick Scott late Friday suspended embattled Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes even though Snipes had already agreed to step down from her post in early January. Scott replaced Snipes with his former general counsel even though Peter Antonacci has no elections experience. Snipes responded by rescinding her previous resignation — and will now be “fighting this to the very end,” her attorney said during a Saturday news conference.</span><br />

<p>But as we’re talking about government, rules of competence don’t apply and if it means possibly breaking the law…?</p>

The altered forms surfaced in Broward, Santa Rosa, Citrus and Okaloosa counties and were reported to federal prosecutors to review for possible election fraud as Florida counties completed a required recount in three top races.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">But an email obtained by the USA TODAY NETWORK – Florida shows that Florida Democrats were organizing a broader statewide effort beyond those counties to give voters the altered forms to fix improper absentee ballots after the Nov. 5 deadline. Democratic party leaders provided staffers with copies of a form, known as a “</span><a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/5130053-Altered-form-Affidavit-vote-by-mail-ballot-cure.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">cure affidavit</a><span style="color: #808080;">,” that had been modified to include an inaccurate Nov. 8 deadline.</span><br />

<p>Have you noticed that “voter disenfranchisement” mainly happens in black districts? If there are any lingering racist remnants from the segregation era, Democrats <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2009/01/14/democrat-race-lie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">still haven’t owned that</a>.</p>
<p>Instead of blaming the incompetence of paid election officials like Brenda Snipes, Democrats prey on their constituents and portray them as physically and/or mentally unable to do what other citizens have done for decades, relatively unimpeded. A notion that’s insulting to black people… should they even be asked.</p>
<p>In 2012, Bob produced a video that actually included those you rarely hear from in the liberal media.</p>
<blockquote><p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/emO2x5WBkwE" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p></blockquote>
<p>Moving forward, how are the law-abiding expected to proceed, especially when liberals improvise new ways to dilute the concept of one person, one vote? You know it would only be palatable if it resulted in Democrat victories.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Ranked choice voting (RCV) makes democracy more fair and functional. It works in a variety of contexts. It is a simple change that can have a big impact.</span></p>
<p>Always be wary of the Democrats’ use of the word “democracy”.</p>

Candidates do best when they attract a strong core of first-choice support while also reaching out for second and even third choices. When used as an “instant runoff” to elect a single candidate like a mayor or a governor, RCV helps elect a candidate that better reflects the support of a majority of voters. When used as a form of fair representation voting to elect more than one candidate like a city council, state legislature or even Congress, RCV helps to more fairly represent the full spectrum of voters.</span><br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Look at the Democrats and how they run political campaigns. They seldom make unforced errors based on repeating mistakes from years ago. They are focused, targeted, and experienced. Unlike those allegedly on our side.</p>
<p>Too many uninformed conservatives <em>(who have the ear of our candidates because they donate to them)</em> believe millennials should be running our campaigns because they have ‘less responsibilities’ and can devote more time to what has to be done on the ground. Not sure where that wisdom came from but it’s too bad the consistent bad results aren’t the massive red flag they should be.</p>

<strong>Greg Bannon</strong> ran for United States Senate in North Carolina and lost.<br />
<strong>Roy Moore</strong> ran for United States Senate in Alabama and lost.<br />
<strong>Chris McDaniel</strong> ran for United States Senate in Mississippi and lost.<br />
<strong>Corey Stewart</strong> ran for Governor and United States Senate and lost.<br />
<strong>Paul Nehlen</strong> ran for United States Congress in Wisconsin and lost.</p>
<p>Now what do you think these candidates all have in common?</p>
<p>Arrogance, condescension and a group of North Carolina political operative millennials whose only real accomplishments are separating Republicans from their wallets.</p>

<p>Campaign millennials locate marks, demand and are paid top dollar despite actual accomplishments.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="James Harrison" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/James-Harrison.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-131173 size-medium" title="James Harrison" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/James-Harrison-150x110.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/James-Harrison-150x110.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/James-Harrison-80x60.jpg 80w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/James-Harrison.jpg 262w" alt="" width="150" height="110" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">I came home to find out that my boys received two trophies for nothing, participation trophies! While I am very proud of my boys for everything they do and will encourage them till the day I die, these trophies will be given back until they EARN a real trophy. I’m not about to raise two boys to be men by making them believe that they are entitled to something just because they tried their best… cause sometimes your best is not enough, and that should drive you to want to do better.</span><br />

<p>That’s assuming they really tried their best. Sadly, the “participation trophy” mentality has infected Republican politics.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Moore’s campaign paid two companies more than $730,000, according to</span> <a href="https://www.fec.gov/data/disbursements/?two_year_transaction_period=2018&amp;cycle=2018&amp;data_type=processed&amp;committee_id=C00639401&amp;recipient_name=capital+square&amp;recipient_name=dsgb&amp;recipient_name=fritsch&amp;recipient_name=southern+pines&amp;recipient_name=ti" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Federal Election Commission records</a><span style="color: #808080;">. It paid another $130,000 in total to a GOP consultant and another firm that lists his home in D.C. as its mailing address.</span><br />

<p>These companies, despite a record of achievement, have successfully gotten a stranglehold in Virginia Republican politics and maybe even got Corey Stewart to part with a generous lump sum from a previously, well-earned warchest to feed the millennial losers.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a href="https://www.vpap.org/committees/279159/stewart-for-governor-corey/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-131164 aligncenter" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/StewartForGovernor.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/StewartForGovernor.jpg 1158w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/StewartForGovernor-150x80.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/StewartForGovernor-768x409.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/StewartForGovernor-500x266.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/StewartForGovernor-750x400.jpg 750w" alt="" width="700" height="373" /></a></p>
<p>Another Cruzer who sucked money out of Stewart’s campaign was a so-called “social media marketing” company with a <a href="http://growtowinmarketing.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">very unremarkable website</a>. Again, despite a prior track record of success, it (he?) was paid consistently.</p>

<p>Corey Stewart ran Donald Trump’s Virginia apparatus so we all know where he’s coming from. With that, why would he become associated with ANYONE associated with the very same Ted Cruz campaign that tried to steal Trump delegates in Virginia?</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="Spence Rogers and Ted Cruz" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Spence-Rogers-Ted-Cruz.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-131171 size-thumbnail" title="Spence Rogers and Ted Cruz" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Spence-Rogers-Ted-Cruz-100x100.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Spence-Rogers-Ted-Cruz-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Spence-Rogers-Ted-Cruz-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">In August, U.S. Army veteran Spence Rogers sold his house in Tampa, Florida and bought an RV, and set off with his wife and three children for a cross-country adventure. Rogers, his family and the RV ended up in Iowa — a state he had never before visited — and instead of sightseeing, he signed on to be Cruz’s deputy director for Iowa.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">—</span> <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-ted-cruz-iowa-staffer-whos-living-in-his-rv/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CBS News, 1/15/16</a></p>
<p>Sorry, who does that to their family?</p>
<p>Prior to Stewart’s gubernatorial run, Bob personally sat down with Corey. It ended with him saying he wanted Bob to work on his campaign. However in a subsequent phone call, Rogers didn’t seem to want him on the campaign, said he already had people shooting video with their “tablets” and iphones, and the directive of the candidate was never observed. The pattern of condescension from self-important millennials, despite an ROI of accomplishment is a cancer conservatives need to starting purging.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Stewart’s campaign was managed by Spence Rogers whose outfit, Grow To Win, collected $73,600 for his services. The Stewart campaign used Rick Shaftan’s Atlantic Media and Research for their TV and radio buys, spending $217,631 in the losing effort.</span><br />

<p>Why is this important? Again, the level of documented unprofessional behavior without favorable results.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="Booker and Shaftan" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Shaftan-and-Booker.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-131192 size-thumbnail" title="Booker and Shaftan" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Shaftan-and-Booker-100x100.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Shaftan-and-Booker-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Shaftan-and-Booker-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">Stephen Lonegan aide Rick Shaftan was fired after an explicit tirade to Talking Points Memo about Mr Booker’s unwillingness to ‘take advantage of the perks of office’ during interaction the Newark mayor had with a vegan from Oregon, concluding he tweets like ‘a gay guy.’</span><br />

<p>Granted, Shaftan is older but has set the bad example and should have never been considered for races of monumental importance.</p>

Another Stewart campaign aide, Rick Shaftan, has a</span> <a href="https://www.richmond.com/news/virginia/government-politics/social-media-posts-by-consultant-to-senate-candidate-corey-stewart/article_7d58202c-779a-59b2-a79b-8a8d99e9f1fd.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">history of social media posts</a> <span style="color: #808080;">that includes calling the NAACP a “more violent” version of the KKK and saying only a “fool” would start a business in a black neighborhood.</span><br />

<p>Why anyone who supported Ted Cruz, especially when he and Ken Cuccinelli were trying to <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2016/05/03/video-cuccinelli-dumps-stewart-adds-self-to-virginia-delegate-heist-for-cruz/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">steal Donald Trump’s well-earned delegates</a>, would be hired by staunch Trump conservative candidates is beyond logic.</p>
<p><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="RNC Convention" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/RNC-convention.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-131175 size-thumbnail" title="RNC Convention" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/RNC-convention-100x100.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/RNC-convention-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/RNC-convention-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a>And too many of the people absorbed into their campaigns in paid positions are more about flaunting themselves and instead of updating supporters on the state of the campaigns, are more about posting Facebook live videos of themselves going from one event to another and producing amateurish vertical videos for what are, in some cases, multi-million dollar national campaigns.</p>
<p>We’ve since had negative dealings with some of these people and we’d hope that any Virginia Republican in the future really take a look at their track record before cutting checks to any of these rude, condescending punks. Did we say we had negative dealings with some of them?</p>
<p>In sports, any team in rebuilding mode seeks personnel with a winning record. Very, very few teams hire coaches who can’t point to recent winning accomplishments, but in the world of politics our candidates are given poor advice as to who to hire and end up with consistent losers at the helm.</p>

<p>Many of us remember, before places of employment were transformed into millennial safe spaces, a time when younger workers would sit and listen during conservations in the workplace. It was because older employees were experienced and the youngsters thus had little of value to offer that conversation. But today, we’re told to value them despite their lack of experience and the results permeate throughout society, including our political campaigns.</p>
<p>Like so many other examples we’ve documented, until conservative Republicans learn to vet those they elevate and pay, we’ll continue to look the fool after losing another winnable election cycle.</p>
<p>As one millennial posted above, <em>“rich people are often stupid. As an indicator valuable.”</em> – and there’s no shortage of millennials who are clamouring to take their money.</p>
<p>Let’s stop losing important elections that affect our daily lives and freeze out political predator opportunists.</p>

<p>Let’s get this out of the way from the onset: this is AGAIN about sore-loser Hillary Clinton supporters’ continuing whine about Donald Trump.</p>

What’s wrong with them?</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">For the past two years, the American left has been haunted by a number: 53. It is the percentage of white women who voted for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election. In the sectors of the left where the figure and its implications have become a perennial theme, the number is treated both as disappointing and darkly unsurprising, a reflection of the conventional wisdom that white women would rather choose the racism espoused by the Republican party than join in the moral coalition represented by men of color and other women.</span><br />

<p>More times than not, the condescending may reluctantly admit they know very few of the people they publicly demonize. They’d never admit they’re speaking out of ignorance, thus their statements are totally irresponsible while borderline slanderous. No, it’s easier to point a finger of condemnation towards one group while conveniently ignoring the many factors that should be considered.</p>

<span style="color: #808080;">After the 2016 election, many Americans expressed shock that large numbers of women voted for Donald Trump, a man known for vulgar sexism, anti-feminist positions, and admitted groping. Many experts had therefore predicted women would rally around Clinton in a display of gender solidarity, yet in 2016 she got only 54 percent of women’s vote. And among white women, Trump beat Clinton 53 to 43 percent.</span><br />

<p>Of course Professor Spruill, like most sanctimonious liberals, omit the offenses of liberal Hollywood pigs like Harvey “#MeToo” Weinstein, not to mention the racist past of the Democrat Party and relies on the ignorance she and many others are responsible for when it comes to trite matters like… teaching.</p>

<p>Did she also point out that the Klan was the enforcement wing of the Democrat Party? Of course not because that would require explanations not convenient to the discussion. It would require honest introspection but as the liberal wing of today’s <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2009/01/14/democrat-race-lie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Democrat Party STILL lies about their racist</a>, murderous past that “both parties switched positions”, which requires a total suspension of common sense, Spruill can safely join those who feel safe in pointing out accusations against President Trump while omitting the many documented sexual offenses committed by President Bill Clinton, who is still a warmly invited guest to any and all progressive events and ventures.</p>

<span style="color: #808080;">“White women like me” is a phrase you hear often when you talk with Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner. In this book, she calls on white women to engage in difficult conversations with one another and to become change agents to dismantle racism in America. Keep Marching is a how-to guide for doing just that.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">From the outset, Rowe-Finkbeiner explores the feminist movement’s legacy of prioritizing the experience of white, cisgender, middle-class women above all others. In the book and throughout her work, she uses her own identity and experience to engage other white women in a conversation about race and class that prioritizes the experiences of women of color, of low-income women, of trans and gender-nonbinary people.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">—</span> <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/leliagowland/2018/09/25/white-women-we-have-to-talk-about-race-even-if-its-not-perfect/#54b5f562260c" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Lelia Gowland, Forbes</a></p>
<p>Liberals love to define the rules on their terms without any negotiation. Especially when it comes to millennials, they introduce terms they were indoctrinated with as societal norms that must be observed.</p>
<p>While many liberal women, not only white women, say they have no issues with “women of color” and are hypersensitive to something they will never have to live with, it also doesn’t take much for them to say what they really feel within the comfort of like-minded and excuse the racism within their own ranks.</p>
<blockquote><p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EjuEdoAyX94" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p></blockquote>
<p>Had ANY Republican, Trump supporting woman publicly said what Hillary Clinton said, that white woman would have been crucified in the media, would have lost her job, would be forced to offer mea culpas that would never be acknowledged as enough, and the motivations for her apologies would always be questioned.</p>
<p>But if you’re a privileged white liberal woman, you always get that pass from the very people attacking others who they don’t know and could never understand.</p>

<span style="color: #808080;">First of all, we are the most likely to be around people of color. And to the degree we think we already know all this, we have nothing more to learn, we’re woke—to the degree we think that, we’re going to put all our energy into making sure that YOU know that we’re woke, and YOU know that we’re not racist. So racism comes up and what do I do? Oh, well, “I tutored on the reservation, I’ve been to Costa Rica, I marched in the sixties, I was in Teach for America, I went to a really diverse high school.” We give this evidence that in our minds establishes that we can’t be racist, and it’s actually absurd evidence if we take the time to think about it, which we rarely do, right?</span><br />

<p>Maybe that should’ve been titled, <em>“Why are Liberal White Women So Terrified of Being Called Racist?”</em> Aside of being able to reflexively list their black friends off on more than the fingers on one hand, there are also some very dark realities they won’t admit in front of others, let alone in Elle Magazine.</p>
<p>Liberal white women are more likely to make false allegations of a sexual nature against innocent men.</p>
<p><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="California College Republicans" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/California-College-Republic.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-130960 size-medium" title="California College Republicans" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/California-College-Republic-150x87.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/California-College-Republic-150x87.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/California-College-Republic-768x444.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/California-College-Republic-500x289.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/California-College-Republic.jpg 800w" alt="" width="150" height="87" /></a>Seriously, we all know how our national media would react if a female member of a college Republican group was caught making a false rape accusation. She’d be pounced upon via social media vitriol, she’d “setting women back decades”, making it harder (from here on) for any woman wanting to come forward, yada yada.</p>
<p>And the nastiest dirty secret liberal women that would leave them running from the room flailing their arms: should they need an alibi or are in need of personal attention, the first person that comes to their minds to blame a rape on is a black man. For some strange reason, they seem to believe they’ll be believed and if an innocent black man’s freedom is imperiled or even taken away, that collateral damage is totally inconsequential in their narcissism of questionable import.</p>

In each instance, the initial story was believable because of the troubling belief that<i> a black man is capable of such a thing</i>.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">It’s because we’ve always been told this is what black men do.</span><br />

<p>Sounds a tad bitter and deservedly so.</p>
<p>Have you noticed when liberal feel-your-pain women talk about Emmett Till, they NEVER mention how it was the false allegation of a white woman that contributed to his killing? No, it was that faceless systemic racism that was easier to blame instead of the word of a white woman whose word and perceptions were accepted without question.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="Lisa Lindquist Dorr" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Lisa-Lindquist-Dorr.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-130927 size-thumbnail" title="Lisa Lindquist Dorr" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Lisa-Lindquist-Dorr-100x100.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Lisa-Lindquist-Dorr-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Lisa-Lindquist-Dorr-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a><span style="color: #808080;">Rape has historically been a crime in which the victim is scrutinized in intense detail. In cases of black-on-white rape, however, the victim was almost immediately believed and the assailant assumed guilty. The myth of the “black beast rapist” grew out of perceived threats from a free, politically empowered black population after the Civil War. Black-on-white rape, the embodiment of the black rapist myth, threatened the patriarchal privileges possessed by white men, privileges dependent upon perceived notions of white femininity. Specifically, the myth depended upon the idea that white women were symbols of racial purity and virtue, and should be protected chivalrously by white men. The myth also depended upon the idea that white women were sexually desirable.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">—</span> <a href="https://networks.h-net.org/node/2295/reviews/2415/boggs-dorr-white-women-rape-and-power-race-virginia-1900-1960" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Lisa Lindquist Dorr, University of Virginia</a></p>
<p>Interesting how black men became threatening to white women after “an empowered black population after the Civil War”. That war was a fight for or against slavery and the Union, led by Republicans, won. So, logically, the animosity against an empowered black population came from liberals.</p>
<p><a title="Jemma Beale, multiple false rape accuser" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2013/12/07/hate-hoaxes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-125470 size-thumbnail" title="Jemma Beale, multiple false rape accuser" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Jemma-Beale-100x100.jpeg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Jemma-Beale-100x100.jpeg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Jemma-Beale-125x125.jpeg 125w" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a>Let’s be real; the physical attributes of white women who falsely accuse black men of rape are normally not in that “sexually desirable” column. These are frustrated, angry liberal white women and again, their kneejerk accused-of-choice is that worthless black man.</p>
<p>And again, if Republican women were making racist false accusations against black men, THAT would be the national headline and deservedly so. To date, can you name ONE instance where that’s happened? Oh, and what ever happened to all those women who came out of the woodwork to accuse Herman Cain of sexual assault during his 2012 presidential campaign? As usual, the damage was done and they all went away which, if you look at the aftermath of the Brett Kavanaugh drama, is a pattern they use because it works.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="Emma Gray" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Emma-Gray.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-130928 size-thumbnail" title="Emma Gray" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Emma-Gray-100x100.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Emma-Gray-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Emma-Gray-125x125.jpg 125w" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>White Women, Come Get Your People. (But Who Are Your People?)</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">On Wednesday, I was on no fewer than three group texts between white women asking what they could do about white women.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">It was the day after the midterm elections, and the exit poll numbers showed, once again, that more than half of white women voters voted Republican in key races in Florida and Texas, and that more than three-quarters of white women voters had voted against gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams in Georgia.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">—</span> <a href="https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/white-women-voters_us_5be5ceebe4b0dbe871aa9f4f" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Emma Gray, Huffington Post</a></p>
<p>These narrow-minded liberals don’t realize they are making the same assumptions of ignorance with white women that they’ve always made with blacks.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">We have the latest salvo “The Other Trent Lotts” by New York Times columnist Bob Herbert, in which we get an example of lazy, emotionalism in print that makes his editor masters happy and should keep him employed another day. It’s obviously supposed to give the readers the continued impression that <strong>“since we all look alike, we all think alike.”</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">—</span> <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2002/12/24/the-new-front-line/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bob Parks, 12/24/02</a></p>
<p>Over the next few years, I modified that line to read, <em>“Since we all look alike, we’re supposed to think and vote alike”</em> which is apropos to this discussion. But as is the case with blacks, it’s also predicated by having to insulate oneself of the accusations made of others.</p>
<p><a title="@ppblackcomm" href="https://twitter.com/ppblackcomm" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-129516 size-medium" title="@ppblackcomm" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/PPBlackComm-150x191.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/PPBlackComm-150x191.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/PPBlackComm.jpg 268w" alt="" width="150" height="191" /></a>These are the same caring white liberal women who go batshit crazy at the possible peril of losing that “right to choose”. They’ll also be the last to admit <em>(if they even know)</em> that abortion was normalized via a <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2018/10/06/roe-vs-wade-pro-abortion-decision-based-on-a-false-rape-accusation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">false rape accusation</a> but was originally <a href="http://www.blackgenocide.org/negro.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">aimed at black people</a> and continues to be <a href="https://youtu.be/uKlrgTygLDg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">to this day</a>.</p>
<p>Liberal Democrat white women who are now coming off as morally righteous are every bit as condescending, if not outright racist in their dealings with minorities. Very few would narrow their hiring to the qualified. Instead they embrace the mediocre and presenting them as the “voice” of people white women <em>should</em> be voting for; not because of their political accomplishments but because of a vagina; original or installed.</p>
<p>Screaming misogyny against one man while giving another a longing pass is the height of hypocrisy but is the sad norm for those looking down on others.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many prominent conservatives are making light of DNC chair candidate Sally Boynton Brown’s “response” to Joy Reid’s question on #BlackLivesMatter during Democracy in Color’s “DNC Chair Candidates Forum 2017” at the Jack Morton Auditorium, George Washington University.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" class="rumble" src="https://rumble.com/embed/vvlc4d/?pub=6btuj" width="750" height="422" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p>
<p>The understandable response from the right, politically, is Ms. Brown is the PERFECT person to lead <em>(from behind)</em> the Democrat National Committee because her approach would surely do irrefutable infrastructure damage to the party.</p>
<p><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/SBB-banner.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-111842 size-large" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/SBB-banner-500x225.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/SBB-banner-500x225.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/SBB-banner-150x67.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/SBB-banner-768x345.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/SBB-banner.jpg 795w" width="500" height="225" /></a><br />
Here’s the problem.</p>
<p>While there ARE politics involved, Boynton Brown clearly illustrates why blacks in America continue to languish educationally and economically behind the rest of the American population, especially while the Democrat Party enjoys their unwavering vote.</p>
<p><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="#BlackLivesMatter, Dartmouth College" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/BLM-Dartmouth.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-105430 size-medium" title="#BlackLivesMatter, Dartmouth College" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/BLM-Dartmouth-150x88.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/BLM-Dartmouth-150x88.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/BLM-Dartmouth-500x292.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/BLM-Dartmouth.jpg 600w" width="150" height="88" /></a>On many illustrative instances, Boynton Brown referred to black people as “they” and “them”, something her hypersensitive self should of been conscious of but that’s how liberals look down as blacks as. Giving legitimacy to loud-mouth bullies like #BlackLivesMatter shows how clueless is as demands for increased funding for college “black studies” departments won’t do shit for blacks aside from producing a select few candidates for liberal nonprofits that can’t allow the success of any mission.</p>
<p>For decades, Democrats have expected so little of blacks, they’ve embraced the very policies that exacerbate their bigotry of low expectations. There are probably no “midnight basketball” programs in Boynton Brown’s white neighborhood because young whites are not expected to be out on the streets after 1am doing God-knows-what.</p>
<p><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/010315.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-105121" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/010315-150x139.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/010315-150x139.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/010315-768x710.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/010315-500x463.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/010315.jpg 960w" alt="" width="150" height="139" /></a>There are probably fewer young white males in Boynton Brown’s white neighborhood running afoul of the law because young white males are not expected to be out on the streets after 1am doing God-knows-what. It’s also probably easier for young white people to find gainful employment in Boynton Brown’s neighborhood because their stereotypical depiction is not based on a negative reality.</p>
<p>Hopefully a DNC chair Boynton Brown could “listen” to blacks that were selectively herded into housing projects that were almost exclusively constructed in black neighborhoods, the black family that’s been strategically destroyed by liberal Democrat policies.</p>
<p><strong>Freakonomics 2005: <a href="http://freakonomics.com/2005/05/15/abortion-and-crime-who-should-you-believe/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Abortion and crime: who should you believe?</a></strong></p>
<p>Just whose neighborhoods would this be addressing?</p>
<p><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="22 Feb 1922, San Francsico, California, USA --- Birth control advocate Margaret Sanger in San Francisco where she was denied a passport to tour Japan by the Consul General" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/Sanger.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-100496 size-medium" title="22 Feb 1922, San Francsico, California, USA --- Birth control advocate Margaret Sanger in San Francisco where she was denied a passport to tour Japan by the Consul General" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/Sanger-150x199.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/Sanger-150x199.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/Sanger.jpg 361w" width="150" height="199" /></a>The Democrat Party, under the standard set by liberal icon Margaret Sanger, has been doing their part to fight crime in the inner city by providing as many disproportionate opportunities to abort black babies while distributing as many dollars to Planned Parenthood and NARAL as possible.</p>
<p>There are many issues <em>(perpetual failing schools with irresponsible teachers who’ll toss their children on the street at the slightest opportunity to strike for higher salaries despite graduating students who can’t read, write or do basic math)</em>, that Sally Boynton Brown needs to “listen” to.</p>
<p>Then again, just what have Democrat “listening tours” ever accomplished?</p>
<p>Sally Boynton Brown being the chair of the DNC would be a target-rich opportunity for levity. Unfortunately, lives are not a joke.</p>
<p>Even for “them”.</p>
