The Justice Department revealed new charges against a Texas man who allegedly participated in the Capitol attack and posted online death threats against Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and a US Capitol Police officer.

Garret Miller of Texas faces five criminal charges stemming from the Capitol insurrection, including trespassing offenses and making death threats. Miller allegedly tweeted, “assassinate AOC,” according to court documents.

While we’re not supporting any kind of violent speech anywhere, let alone on social media where relative anonymity creates courage, people like Miller (as well as others captured following the “riot”) are not characteristic of those who attended Tea Party and Trump rallies.

In the ongoing displays of double standards, the level of law enforcement reaction and media outrage has been significantly higher when it comes to threats directed at AOC than was President Donald Trump. While social media posters and celebrities issued threats to the president and once busted gave the usual “was joking” response, some of the offending product is still readily found online and it’s safe to assume none of them have been arrested or charged.

Here’s just a few examples of death threats directed at President Trump while #KillTrump is a currently acceptable hashtag on Twitter. Yes, some of these captures are old but they haven’t been scrubbed either and we all know #BigTech knows how to make things they find offensive go away.

Had people in #BigTech put as much effort into taking down offending posts and social media accounts with the same zeal they did keeping Hunter Biden stories off their platforms prior to the presidential election, maybe some people would get it into their heads that either calling for the death of anyone (let alone bravely asking someone else to do it) is a bad thing. The possible ramifications could’ve been profound. Maybe congressmen wouldn’t have been shot during a baseball practice in Virginia or a senator wouldn’t have been near beaten to death on his front lawn.

Wouldn’t want to leave them out another of today’s realities that threats to kill police are also enjoyable, protected free speech.

But hey, it’s all in good humor when death threats are directed towards Republicans and an actionable outrage should they be directed at a Democrat.

Those are the rules.

…
Add the power of an elected seat and some women appear to feel free to threaten the livlihoods (and maybe freedom) of those whose politics just piss them off.

Most men would be very careful about issuing such an implied threat; that is, men who didn’t enjoy the shield of armed protection. Conversely, a lot of women feel no need to think before speaking and unhinged liberal Democrat women are letting it rip.

Speaking of “deleted Tweets”….

This “Trump Accountability Project” isn’t just a means to kvetch. It appears to be very real, specific and threatening.

Their mission is clear.

They’ll look the other way for some.

Former Obama Officials Are Riding Out The Trump Years By Cashing In
For all the damage the Trump administration is doing to American democracy, several prominent Obama alums seem to have quietly made their peace with a subtler attack on the legitimacy of U.S. institutions. Today, many are lending the prestige of their White House resumes to scandal-fraught organizations in return for large sums of money.

Elite Washington is comfortable with what it calls “the revolving door” ― the movement of government officials into lobbying, contracting or consulting jobs where they can exploit government connections for profit. It’s not considered a particularly admirable career path, but it is nevertheless accepted as a normal part of life in the nation’s capital.

The Trump Accountability Project’s mission is to target:

Those who elected him.
Individuals who worked for the Trump for President campaign, Republican National Committee, and affiliated PACs in 2016 or 2020.

Those who staffed his government.
Individuals who worked in any role as a political appointee in the Trump Administration.

Those who funded him.
Individuals who used their massive personal wealth and influence to bundle money for Trump.
— Trump Accountability Project website

Over the two-plus decades of covering politics, I can’t remember any man who publicly threatened to target political opponents from a previous administration. That’s not to say it wasn’t done; it just wasn’t in your face.

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Emily Abrams “National Surrogates Director, Pete for America”, and other women are ratcheting up potential punitive and/or violent actions against individuals and groups. We all know Ocasio-Cortez and Abrams won’t be physically engaged in the activities themselves; they’ll get others amped up to do it for them. It’s what full-of-yourself mean girls do.

While I’d never seek or endorse retaliatory actions, some people are not going to sit by and allow some loudmouthed women to destroy their finances, be doxxed and harassed at their homes, restaurants and places of business, and be left physically vulnerable to the liberal crazies in the street.

Any of them showing their face, I will never ever forgive them for undermining the possibility to help their own people and their own communities. It is absolutely unconscionable. And for those young Black men who think somehow they can align themselves with Trump, not only are they terribly mistaken. Black men who don’t understand… if they’re not listening to our voices, they have a price to pay.
— Rep. Maxine Waters, 10/30/20

A price we all know Waters won’t personally issue but sit back and goad others to do for her and the “list” is very real.

— h/t @McAdooGordon

The 2020 Election is almost over. These vindictive, cowardly women didn’t get all of what they wanted. They’re calling for payback while knowing should any blow-back occur, they’ll play the “You can’t hit the girl” card.

The Trump Accountability Project website implies the targets will mostly be men. The fallacy of that assumption is a lot of those Trump-supportive men have wives, other female family members and associates who will be adversely affected by TAP’s punishment. Those women will be pissed, this could get very ugly, and they’ll have no problem hitting back.

Much time was spent trying to verify if the “deleted” Tweet by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was indeed something she authored. We couldn’t prove beyond a reasonable doubt if she Tweeted it or not but hours after screenshots began circulating around social media, @AOC addressed the Tweet in question.

Rep. Ocasio-Cortez has made numerous problematic comments during her short tenure on Capitol Hill, has hundreds of thousands of adoring social media followers and we all know they will cover for Democrats and stifle conservatives on their various platforms. And as far as taking politicians at their word just because they’re politicians, let’s not forget the cover the Constitution grants them.

The Senators and Representatives shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.
— United States Constitution (Article I, Section 6, Clause 1)

In other words, as long as they’re on the clock, politicians can say anything without fear of legal ramifications and it’s not like AOC hasn’t said questionable things before. But as long as Democrats have social media and other so-called fact checkers covering for them. The same “independent fact-checkers” who look the other way when mistruths are widely and gleefully shared about Republicans.

Facebook is one of them and the AOC meme we posted caught the attention of their “independent fact-checkers”.

One should rightly ask why this particular “deleted Tweet” is garnering so much attention from social media “fact checkers”? It seems like a bit of overreach considering the millions of posts of questionable content shared on a daily basis. AOC claims she didn’t Tweet it but she also DIDN’T denounce the sentiment as something she doesn’t agree with and/or it wasn’t a directive she heard from higher-up Democrats on the Hill.

The content of the “deleted Tweet” is really the issue

If keeping businesses closed and putting people out of work is acceptable, communications between Capitol Hill and the states were made directing them to keep their economies squelched just to damage the economy prior to a presidential election, that would be a huge admission with major ramifications for those participating. And those who are doing overtime “fact-checking” and covering for AOC include those who are outspoken in their partisanship and have the means to act on it.

So, for the time being, we’ll leave our meme up and stand by our instincts for three simple reasons:

1. 1. The First Amendment
   2. Politicians can say ANYTHING they want and are Constitutionally protected
   3. So-called “fact-checkers” are hand-picked partisans
   4. IF the Tweet was a reflection of actual Democrat strategy, this could be explosive

The overreaction from the left is telling. They’re squelching the inconvenient message in the name of the messenger.

The economy was President Trump’s reelection ace in the hole. Thanks to COVID-19, the economy was seriously damaged and the political actions resulted in many long-established brands permanently closed, millions of employees losing their jobs, all while the political class made sure they were financially untouched. Punishing Americans so Democrats can win an election is not beyond something they’d be willing and able to carry out.

When the prophet Isaiah ben Amoz wrote Book of Isaiah, chapter 11, verse six…

The wolf shall dwell with the lamb,
and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together;
and a little child shall lead them.
— Book of Isaiah, 11:6

… do you think he would’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?

What if we could’ve used Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) as a hypothetical…?

It would’ve been an interesting conversation to have been had.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez held a 5k in Queens Saturday that she billed as “a Family Fun Run supporting U.S. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal on the Saturday following Earth Day.”

But many of the 400 runners didn’t realize their $30 registration fees were going directly into the lawmaker’s campaign coffers.
— New York Post, 4/27/19

This can no longer be excused as political naïveté. This is intentional, devoid of conscience and wrong.

Even kids as young as 3 became unknowing political donors — ponying up $20 fees to join a kids’ 1k.

Some participants felt fooled.

“The site says it’s to benefit her environmental plan,” said one supporter who would not give his name. “If it is going to go directly to her campaign they should have said so.”

And thanks to the narcissistic arrogance of the youthful left, knowledge of their being screwed is justified.

Another did not mind.

“Even if that’s so,” said a female runner of her money going directly to a campaign, “it’s because it’s her plan and she is the one we need to push it.”

The “Green New Deal” is all about screwing the climate change dupes. Democrats have screwed their constituents as long as there have been Democrats. Ocasio-Cortez has learned well.

Sorry, not true but who are we to debate the wisdom of @AOC and Rashida Tlaib.

The truth is another casualty.

No one will deny that racial hatred is an evil ideology, and that people who kill in the name of white supremacy commit evil—but is it true that white extremists are sowing a growing amount of worldwide mayhem?

The evidence suggests otherwise. Even a superficial glance at the record indicates that of the nearly 20,000 people killed in thousands of extremist killings in 2017, white supremacists were responsible for very few. Almost all the world’s extremist violence is concentrated in a handful of regions, where very few white people live.
— City-Journal, 4/8/19

Last week, the New York Times ramped up the fear-hysteria claiming “white extremist” violence is on the rise and poor Muslims are the preferred targets of racist Caucasians.

.

BTW — Would some certain oft-repeated liberal media narratives be inconvenient to collateral facts?

“I’m proud of the fact that, with two weeks to go, we’re probably the first administration in modern history that hasn’t had a major scandal in the White House.”
— President Obama, interview on “60 minutes,” aired Jan. 15

Tell that to those in attendance at the Bataclan theater in Paris.

One of the guns used in the November 13, 2015 Paris terrorist attacks came from Phoenix, Arizona where the Obama administration allowed criminals to buy thousands of weapons illegally in a deadly and futile “gun-walking” operation known as “Fast and Furious.”
— Judicial Watch, 6/29/16

The terrorists in Paris killed 130 people and ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack; not “white extremists”. The FACT is the vast majority of the over 20,000 killings in 2017 were insignificant black people in Middle East, African, and Asian nations and the killers were Muslim. Most of the victims were Muslim, followed by those Christians who refused to convert to Islam.

The supposed attempted purge of “white extremists” in the United States is not about reducing the scourge of domestic hate but the rationale to target and silence Republican and conservative voices prior to the 2020 elections.

Now, why would Democrats be worried about the next election cycle?

Christchurch shooting coverage and why the ABC chose not to share the gunman’s ‘manifesto’
PM Jacinda Ardern asks public to not share manifesto from Christchurch shootings suspect
Do not share the New Zealand mosque shooter’s screed
New Zealand terror attack: Don’t read manifestos of mass shooters
Kellyanne Conway Blasted for Telling People to Read NZ Shooter’s Manifesto: ‘Monstrously Bad Idea’

The media was pretty much in lockstep here, so any selective information about what Tarrant wrote would have to come through them. See a problem looming? We’ve learned long ago that when the media says NOT to do something, there’s often a partisan, political agenda.

So, we did and it was almost immediately obvious why they didn’t want it out there without their biased filter.

Tarrant first played on the correctly-anticipated Democrat political response to the use of a gun, which would initiate a call for another “discussion” on the need to eliminate the 2nd Amendment, coupled with the quilt-by-association (once again) of the National Rifle Association.

And it was an easy bet who’d take the bait….

Tarrant knew a partisan media would blame his attack on President Donald Trump and he was right.

Democratic senator and CNN rush to blame Trump over New Zealand massacre
New Zealand mosques’ attack suspect praised Trump in manifesto
New Zealand Shooter’s Manifesto Praises Trump
New Zealand suspect wrote in manifesto he supported Trump ‘as a symbol of renewed white identity’
Christchurch shooter Brenton Tarrant supported Trump
New Zealand Mosques Shooting Suspect Called Trump a ‘Symbol of White Supremacy’
New Zealand Mosque Shooting Suspect Allegedly Called Trump ‘Symbol of Renewed White Identity’
New Zealand shooter called Donald Trump ‘a symbol of white identity’ as he murdered 49 people

The media knew most people would either not know where to find or not bother to read the manifesto, so you’d just have to take their word for it. The news disseminators committed (yet again) another example of bias-by-omission because when you read ALL of what Tarrant wrote, it’s clear he’s NOT a devotee of Donald Trump.

“Dear god no” is not exactly a ringing endorsement by someone you’d expect to be wearing a MAGA cap.

Owens responded with an “LOL” in a Tweet.

Not as savvy as advertised….

Tarrant’s endorsement of Candace Owens is a curious one, but he’s just ANOTHER sucked into the fraud she is. Owens is a very-recent conservative convert of convenience, was initially hired by Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk as a black face to cover for his organization’s blatant racism, and her social media musings are hardly original.

It’s sad that despite our well-researched chronicling of Owens’ fraud and her clear disdain for Tea Party conservatives (of whom she hoped would “peacefully die-off in their sleep” so HER millennial generation could take the power she believes she deserves), she’s been repeatedly endorsed by Rush Limbaugh, many other conservative entities and President Trump.

Very sad.

Brenton Tarrant knew our Democrats and their media well, however the left is colorblind when it comes to the desired confiscation of firearms for self-protection and look at the results, i.e. Chicago, Baltimore, New Orleans, etc.

The media also portrays him as a “right wing extremist”.

New Zealand shootings appear to be “ultra right-wing terrorism,” says analyst
Far-Right Terrorist Kills 49 in New Zealand Mosque Shooting

Tarrant doesn’t appear to care much for labels.

Hmm… only saw the “right wing” in the headlines. Bias-by-omission is something the media is really, really good at, especially when they they attempt to control who can see what with their own eyes.

In fact, this sounds more like the far-left recitations of Bernie “one puh-sunt” Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez than anything President Trump or any conservative has ever said. Maybe that’s why none of the media has included this quote from Tarrant’s manifesto.

Oh, and another thing our media hasn’t told the American people: Tarrant is an environmentalist not too happy about the lack of real progress from the “movement”.

We assume our media will get around to this shortly, you know, to competently inform the public.

Tarrant knows our liberal left well and one could speculate that he has Rules for Radicals somewhere on his reading list.

Saul Alinsky wrote, “Never go outside the experience of your people.” In other words, assume your followers are uninformed, use emotion over facts because they rightly assume the Democrat base will act out without any critical thinking and/or desire for additional details. Works every time.

So, no.

Despite the initial assessment and direct finger pointing from Democrats and their media, the Christchurch shooter is NOT a “right wing extremist”, pro-NRA, Donald Trump supporter. Brenton Tarrant knows all the triggers that would play both the media and our politicians.

Mission accomplished.
