NPR (NHPR) has some audio up this morning with a very amusing headline above it and an even funnier statement beneath. “Amid Russia Scandals, Conservative Media Provides Air Cover For President Trump.”

NPR not only published this but made it laughable thanks to the copy they added below the audio player (emphasis mine).

Many Americans don’t believe Russia tried to meddle in the presidential election despite intelligence evidence to the contrary.

The only evidence is that there is an investigation which has so far produced nothing actionable. Put another way; there is no evidence of evidence, and NPR knows this.

If you missed this from Monday, Pakistani-born Imran Awan, long-time right-hand IT aide to the former Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairwoman is being investigated by the FBI.

The Capitol Police are involved, there is a criminal investigation, and it looks like Imran, who had extensive access to a number of congressional networks, is in some serious trouble, a problem which THIS news from today can only make more interesting.

The top information technology aide to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., was arrested Monday attempting to board a flight to Pakistan after wiring $283,000 from the Congressional Federal Credit Union to that country.

In July 2015 Severin Borenstein and Lucas Davis released a report titled, The Distributional Effects of U.S. Clean Energy Tax Credits. It sought to examine the distribution of government handouts (incentives) to invest in things the government insisted would be better for the environment. The government is incredibly bad at so many things but thinking it can change the weather is second only in stupidity to the foolishness of the rubes who believe that the weather or the planet has anything to do with these “policies.”

Bjorn Lomborg is a warmist. He’s a climate change guy who buys into the CO2 and man are warming the earth thing, and he’s convinced it matters. But he’s also about doing things that have value to address “the problem, ” and if you’ve been paying attention, he thinks the entire Paris Climate Accord is a nothing-burger PR stunt that will waste trillions of dollars over the next decade and a half for no measurable gains. Money better spent on useful things that might produce “results.”

To that end, he’s got a message for California Governor Jerry Brown that’s just as relevant to the mayors around New Hampshire who are clinging to the useless climate accord.

Tim Gill is a major donor to Democrat’s, the backbone of the gay-lobby, and has been at the forefront of funding gay marriage and other LGBT initiatives across America. What’s his next target?

Anyone who intends to hide behind their first amendment right of association, free speech, and religious liberty are in his crosshairs. He’s prepared to spend every dime in his foundations, and this is a quote, “to punish the wicked.”

No exceptions. No quarter.

There’s a gathering of Democrats this evening at the Exeter Inn, 90 Front Street. They’re having a panel discussion on the left’s so-called ‘Resistance’ and the “Indivisible Movement.” Seriously? The Democrat Party is a divided hot mess in a dumpster fire, and they have a “grassroots group” called the indivisible movement?

Here’s indivisible for you. Put neo-feminist leftists in a locker room shower with penis-bearing trans men. Or arrange for Black Lives Matter supporters to sit in the same room on campus with white SJW..wait, sorry. The whites won’t be allowed in.

Indivisible my…

On July 25th voters in New Hampshire State Senate District 16, will go the polls in a special election. The Democrat in that race is Manchester Ward 1 Alderman Kevin Cavanaugh.  Kevbo is on record in support of making Manchester a Sanctuary city. Seeing as the Kevinator is an elected official in the largest city in a state with a well advertised “opioid epidemic” perhaps he should consider this from The Hill.com.

“… the U.S. Sentencing Commission found that 75 percent of all criminal defendants who were convicted and sentenced for federal drug offenses were illegal immigrants. Illegal immigrants were also involved in 17 percent of all drug trafficking sentences and one-third of all federal prison sentences.

A recent Lawrence, MA, drug raid–a city called out by Governor Sununu as a leading source of the drugs coming into New Hampshire, netted over 30 individuals, many of them illegal immigrants moving drugs to cities like Manchester.

A professional snowflake admits to having to self-censor her own speech to avoid triggering other snowflakes, among other things. A circumstance ripe with opportunity.

 I self-police what I say in activist spaces. I stopped commenting on social media with questions or pushback on leftist opinions for fear of being called out. I am always ready to apologize for anything I do that a community member deems wrong, oppressive, or inappropriate—no questions asked. The amount of energy I spend demonstrating purity in order to stay in the good graces of a fast-moving activist community is enormous.

Zero Hedge is reporting that Klaus Eberwein a former Haitian government official who was expected to expose the extent of Clinton Foundation corruption and malpractice next week has been found dead in Miami at the age of 50.

No one should be surprised by this. Or this,

According to Miami-Dade’s medical examiner records supervisor, the official cause of death is “gunshot to the head.“ Eberwein’s death has been registered as “suicide” by the government. But not long before his death, he acknowledged that his life was in danger because he was outspoken on the criminal activities of the Clinton Foundation. 

He was set to testify next Tuesday.

Snopes.com is not exactly the blessing to truth and transparency it claims for itself. Few on the right trust it to which we may now add a few on the left, assuming the progressives don’t try and burn it to the ground for this. The Lies of Donald Trump’s Critics, and How They Shape His Many Personas.

There are many articles that exist detailing lies and misleading claims made by the Trump administration. This article is intended as a neutral, reliable analysis of the lies, false allegations and misleading claims made about and against Donald Trump since his inauguration in January 2017. We’ve attempted to strip away the hyperbole, name-calling and generalizations, and examine the patterns and trends at work: what characterizes these lies and exaggerations, the effect they have, what might explain them.
