Free Republic

Can you imagine waking up on November 4, after the election, to news that Donald Trump convincingly won the elections? Electoral and popular votes? Smoke would still be rising from cities across the country.

BELLER: “Even if Biden wins, we go for all the Republican voters, and Homeland Security will take their children away. What do you think about that?” WOMAN: (Laughs) BELLER: “And we’ll put them into re-education camps.” WOMAN: “Amen.” BELLER: “In these times, which are unique, I mean, Trump is close to Hitler.” WOMAN: “What are you going to do if we don’t win?” BELLER: “Go to the White House and throw Molotov cocktails.” (…) BELLER: “Kids who are growing up, knowing nothing but Trump for four years, wonder what they’re going to be like. Are we raising a generation of...

Carlo is survived by his three daughters, Susan Bowers, Jennifer Flickner, and Dorothy Maloy, his two sons, Michael Morelli and Matthew Morelli, his five grandchildren, Brandon Morelli, Nicholas Maloy, Andrew Maloy, Annie Flickner, and Kaitlyn Koroleski, and his great-granddaughter Sophie Green.

(Vanity question) What exactly is the truth about POTUS' finances? Deutsche Bank has fired Trump's account manager and is walking away from him. Politically motivated, obviously. As are the social media companies. There is a minor problem with that conclusion. It is this: if Donald Trump had remained completely politically inactive, and given Deutsche is in such massive trouble it still would've come a-knocking. POTUS has had about $300m of debt forgiven or written off since 2010, and still owes more than that to Deutsche Bank. Some very big financial gurus are now ing, in hindsight Trump was rolling back...

The film begins in Lafayette Indiana, where a young man by the name of Jeremy Camp (KJ Apa) heads to Calvary Chapel College in Murrieta, California. The first night he gets settled in, Jeremy goes to a Christian concert to see a Canadian band called “The Kry”, and meets its lead singer, Jean-Luc Lagoie (Nathan Parsons). Jeremy asks Jean-Luc how to make it. Jean-Luc tells Camp that “it’s not about making it. It’s about what our songs give people.” Then he asks Camp, “So what do you want to give people?” This question forces Camp to see where his priorities...

---SNIP--- On Saturday, Sept. 26, as advertised by the Biden campaign, Madison poll workers turned out across the city to register voters and collect absentee ballots, even though in-person absentee ballot collection is not supposed to start until two weeks before Election Day, according to Wisconsin state election law. Several of McKenna’s listeners showed up to photograph the city government workers’ activities promoted by the Biden for President campaign. The poll workers stuffed ballots into “red zipper bags with no security whatsoever. The poll workers witnessed people’s (blank) ballots, just like you would if you did an in-person absentee ballot,...

Good old Glenn, one of the few standing classic liberals, pointing out the dangers of the New Left: For years, I heard it's invalid to object to political censorship by FB & Twitter because, if you don't like it, you can just create a competing social media platform. Parler tried. And in 24 hours, Google, Apple & Amazon united to destroy it. That's what monopoly power means. — Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) January 10, 2021And giving everyone on both sides reason to at least give pause to think about what they’re up to: The new corporate authoritarian liberal-left monoculture is going...

The military has to know what's going on... At least I hope to God they're smart enough to have seen what was going on...

John Sullivan, a noted leftist leader from Utah, stormed the US Capitol with fellow activists on Wednesday. The mainstream media and the fact-checkers tried to protect him and claimed that he was there only to film the whole situation. Even far-left PolitiFact reviewed Sullivan’s video of the mob into the Capitol and Babbitt’s shooting. They say that it doesn’t show Sullivan clearly engaged in the violence or leading the run-up to the Capitol, although it does show him animated as he spoke with police and rioters from the frontlines. At points in the video, Sullivan can be heard telling others...

Start with the car seats. They hulk in the back seats of any normal sedan, squeezing the middle seat from both directions, built like a captain’s chair on Star Trek if James T. Kirk was really worried about taking neck damage from a Romulan barrage. The scenes of large-family life from early in the automobile era, with three or four kids jammed happily into the back seat of a jalopy, are now both unimaginable and illegal. Just about every edition of Cheaper by the Dozen, published in 1948, uses an image of the Gilbreth kids packed into the family automobile,...

"So little of what could happen does happen." – Salvador DaliTick-Tock-Tick-TockThis is what happens when you have no objective source for news – an organization that simply gathers and presents events and facts for you to process. You get masses of disinformation served up with bias from both sides; and conspiracy theories. Now I love a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy but at a certain point my pragmatism kicks in. The Storm is not coming, there is no Great Awakening that will arouse the slumbering sheeple. Joe Biden will be sworn in on the 20th regardless...

Echoed By Mark Levin·29 minutes agoJohn Matze 🇺🇸·@John1 hour ago·6051527 Sunday (tomorrow) at midnight Amazon will be shutting off all of our servers in an attempt to completely remove free speech off the internet. There is the possibility Parler will be unavailable on the internet for up to a week as we rebuild from scratch. We prepared for events like this by never relying on amazons proprietary infrastructure and building bare metal products.We will try our best to move to a new provider right now as we have many competing for our business, however Amazon, Google and Apple purposefully did...

Democrats and liberal media have already dismissed the concept of radical leftists or Antifa being at the Capitol protest, that all the people there were Trump supporters. But as we reported, that’s not exactly true. What is true was there was at least some radical leftist presence there among the Trump supporters. What they did or what influence they may have had in the action is not clear. BLM protest organizer John Sullivan who frequently posted with BLM and Antifa hashtags was there at the doors to the Speaker’s Lobby next to Ashli Babbitt when she was shot. In fact,...

Mozilla, the developer of Firefox browser, says “more must be done” to rid cyberspace of President Trump and other bad actors. Mozilla argues that banning and permanent removal of bad actors is not enough. Mozilla tweeted out that the unrest at the Capitol was the “culmination of a four-year disinformation campaign orchestrated by the President.”

I have suspended my own Twitter account in protest against Twitter’s fascism. I ask all my followers to join me now on Parler and Rumble. https://t.co/XswC88juiGhttps://t.co/1YeTi0ywBk— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) January 8, 2021

Richard Feynman, physicist Just two months ago, at a drive-in rally in Willington, Delaware Joey B pumped out this pabulum after his alleged election: “I pledge to be a president who does not seek to divide, but unify, who doesn’t see red states and blue states, but only sees the United States.” If this is Joey’s idea of unification we may as well draw up the articles of secession: Very quickly, the Democratic Party’s allies in at Google, Twitter, Facebook, and Apple have moved to shut down many legitimate and popular conservative and Republican news outlets, including the Twitter feed...

---SNIP--- For four years, we’ve been ridiculed, told we are conspiracy theorists, our votes negated, our voices censored—suffered as we watched the President we supported be lied about and attacked in every possible way. We’ve been told we are white supremacists. We have been subjected to Covid rules that were meaningless. We’ve been polite. As cities burned without consequences, we stood by helplessly, watched our friends and families lose their businesses, and the people we love have needlessly died alone in hospitals and nursing homes. We have tried every legal means possible to expose lies along the way and, now,...

Just a general survey. Who considers themselves certainly not against Trump (per se), but not all-in for everything Trump does (per se)?

“The army of the emboldened and gleefully ill-informed is growing.”― Andrew Breitbart Martin Luther King Jr., 1968I woke up today angrier than yesterday, and angrier than the day before that. This has been going on so long you’d think we’d all have reached the final stage of the grief cycle by now. Thankfully no, many of us still have a fire burning in our belly and are still squarely entrenched in the “anger” stage with no intention of allowing it to abate. In seems righteous.Sarah Hoyt comes closest to expressing my feelings, albeit with a lot more youthful, uh, vigor,...

I want to get this down while it is still fresh in my mind so no responses tonight. I'll answer any questions, as I can, tomorrow. People need to hear what happened to keep abreast of the media narrative that is being formulated. Drove into D. C. and got into town around 4:30 PM. Since I have never been to DC I did the usual tourist thing of walking around and taking pictures of various historical monuments. I even scouted out the are around the National Christmas Tree where the main event was supposed to take place. I waved at...
