Hillary Clinton now 'advising' Kamala Harris how to be popular
{American Thinker] If anything out there sounds like Mission: Fail, it's the unpopular Kamala Harris going to the unpopular Hillary Clinton for advice on how to be popular with voters.

Even Democrats can't stand her. It's like Joe Biden going to Jimmy Carter on how to get a rip-roaring economy going. (And that seems to have happened, too).

So here we are, with the mendicant and her mentor -- with cackling that can be heard a mile away:

Democrats Try to Revive Build Back Better Amnesty, Green Card Giveaway
[Breitbart] Democrats and their business allies are trying to revive the huge immigration giveaways in President Joe Biden’s semi-defunct Build Back Better (BBB) spending plan.

The bill has been blocked by Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), who has repeatedly stated he opposes the $1.7 trillion spending plan because it will likely increase inflation.

But "Democratic lawmakers, lobbyists and experts at think tanks believe Manchin might be won over if the bill is revised to include fewer programs for a longer period of time," the Hill.com reported December 23. The outlet continued:

Progressives want the revived bill to include all the immigration giveaways in the $1.7 trillion draft bill. Manchin has not announced any opposition to the immigration giveaways in the bill.

Those giveaways include an amnesty for 6.5 million, as well as new rules to help the Fortune 500 companies hire an uncapped number of foreign graduates, instead of American graduates, and a dramatic acceleration of chain migration into the United States, regardless of the damaging impact on Americans’ wages, families finances, and housing prices. The changes would have a big impact on Americans’ pocketbooks but would cost the federal government a small share of the spending plan.

But Democrats face a critical problem. The Senate’s parliamentarian has repeatedly excluded their amnesty plans for the 6.5 million illegals from the fast-track spending bill — and some Democrats do not want to pass the Fortune 500 giveaway without also passing the amnesty plan for migrants.

Media outlets that are allowed onto Capitol Hill have not asked the Democrats about their plan to escape this both-or-nothing dilemma.

Similarly, the approved media outlets have stayed silent about the Democrats’ plan to accelerate chain migration — even though it would deliver millions of new voters to Democrats while also providing millions of extra workers, consumers, and renters to the Democrats’ business allies.

Manchin reportedly approved a smaller spending bill before negotiations collapsed. But media coverage of the revived BBB plan is silent about his negotiations with the White House over the migration giveaways. For example, the Washington Post published a December 20 article about Manchin’s BBB priorities — but ignored the migration issue:

Rep. Josh Gottheimer says progressive protesters shouted 'Jew' at NJ event
[NYPOST] Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo
...Dem politician, serving since 2021 as the Secretary of Commerce in the Biden Administration. She previously served as the 75th and first female Governor of Rhode Island from 2015 to 2021. Before that she was General Treasurer of Rhode Island from 2011 to 2015. Following her graduation from Yale Law School, Raimondo served as a law clerk to federal judge Kimba Wood of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York...
is backing up a Jewish congressman’s incendiary claim that he heard protesters scream "Jew!" at him during a September event in New Jersey.

Garden State Democratic Rep. Josh Gottheimer caused a stir during a Dec. 13 speech at Rutgers University in which he said he was set upon by anti-Semitic protesters on Sept. 20 as he and Raimondo made a series of stops in Bergen County promoting President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. An incredibly corrupt version of Jar-Jar Binks, only well into his dotage. The dumbass who abandoned Afghanistan....
’s infrastructure bill.

The pair were greeted by around 100 hecklers in Glen Rock — most of whom, Gottheimer claimed, came from the local chapter of the Working Families Party.
... a minor party of about 50,000 members across seventeen states and Washington, DC that claims to be “democrat socialist”. But really, with activist members like ACORN, we know what they really are, and why they don’t like Jews...
The situation was intense enough that Raimondo’s security detail insisted the pair travel in the commerce secretary’s vehicle.

"They were going from store to store protesting and as we were going into the bakery someone from the crowd derisively screamed ’Jew!'" Gottheimer said, adding that Raimondo heard the remark too and reacted with disgust. "She couldn’t believe it. I remember looking at her."

Raimondo told The Post this week she too heard the hateful jeers.

"Anti-Semitism is wrong, reprehensible and unacceptable. I join Congressman Gottheimer in condemning these hateful attacks that have absolutely no place in our politics," Raimondo said.

Though a Democrat, Gottheimer is among his party’s most moderate voices and his attacks on "The Squad" and progressives has long drawn activist ire. WFP endorsed his unsuccessful 2020 primary opponent Arati Kreibich — who was at the protest herself.

#1  Who are they really, and why don't they like Jewish people?
Posted by: Sheter the Lesser9291 || 12/26/2021 2:07 Comments || Top||

#2  They’re really Communists, Sheter the Lesser9291. Communists have never liked Jews, not even Karl Marx himself, whose Jewish parents converted to Christianity before he was born.

#3  Being called a Jew is not a bad thing. We are what we are.

#4  and Jesus Christ was a Jew

#5  ...as were his parental units and the apostles.

#6  Good point
Posted by: Frank G || 12/26/2021 9:08 Comments || Top||

#7  I'd say, to the cadre of them that still votes hard against Christian interests (and their own) "You can stop now."
Posted by: M. Murcek || 12/26/2021 9:16 Comments || Top||

#8  Communists also don’t like Christians, so their connection to that notorious Jew, Jesus Christ, is no recommendation. ;-)
Posted by: trailing wife || 12/26/2021 11:09 Comments || Top||

#9  So, one drop of communist blood (theoretical construct, I know) overcomes all other actual human DNA. Creepy.
Posted by: M. Murcek || 12/26/2021 11:11 Comments || Top||

#10  #2 They’re really Communists

Yes. We need to stop using that BS term, "progressive," to describe these characters. They're just Marxists without a formal Communist Party structure behind them.

#3  That dog can hear your comment, Skid ;-) . Of course, they had to drag Beau's corpse out for "empathy". They forgot to mention Hunter banging his widow.

#4  Dogs don't bother me. Some "dog people" turn me waaaaaay off.

#5  The media were all kicked out before any troop greetings lest another Let's Go Brandon moment occur. Truly an administration of the people.

#6  "Commander", huh? At least now we know who's in charge....

#7  Well, the dog probably has some control over when he eliminates.

#10  #3 They forgot to mention Hunter banging his brother's widow

...and hitting on her 14 year-old daughter. To the point where her mother, his brother's widow whom he was banging, frantically told him to stay away from her underage daughter -- i.e. his niece.

What a disgusting, sick band of grifters. That dog is cleaner than these filthy animals.
