Twitter’s janitors called a strike outside the company’s headquarters, causing new boss Elon Musk to fire them all and cancel their contract. The janitors were protesting outside the HQ in San Francisco, California after 20 of their colleagues were fired during the company’s recent major workforce culls. However, when the remaining janitors in the SEIU Local 87 union called a strike on Monday, they were all fired. Twitter also terminated its contact with the company that hired the janitors. “Our cleaning contractor at Twitter was told by Twitter that they are cutting the contract,” said Olga Miranda, union president for...

Advocates from several groups demonstrated outside of Sen. Joe Manchin’s (D-W.Va.) houseboat on Monday, protesting the senator’s opposition to Democrats’ multi-trillion dollar reconciliation package. Representatives from Young West Virginia, Race Matters WV, Center for Popular Democracy Action, Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) and Greenpeace USA protested outside of Manchin’s houseboat in Washington, D.C. in their own boats and kayaks to protest his opposition to the $3.5 trillion reconciliation package, a key component of President Biden’s legislative agenda. The protesters held signs that read “Don’t ink West Virginia,” “Manchin pass the bill,” “BBB brings jobs to WV” — referring to Biden’s...

VIDEOThe FBI is now a Jussie Smollett operation. What I mean is the agency seems to have developed a specialty in faking incidents of racial terror and then "solving them"--all to foster a false narrative for which there is no actual evidence.

More leftist lunacy. Soros involved.

10 days ago a man from Illinois who took part in protests in both Chicago and Minneapolis was caught handing out explosives and encouraged others to “light that b***h and throw it” at police officers. He is facing federal criminal charges, but the mainstream media said that there are no bombs on the peaceful protests and that this man was not guilty Matthew Rupert, 28, was charged with civil disorder, carrying on a riot and possession of unregistered destructive devices, according to a federal complaint filed Monday in the U.S. District Court in Minnesota. And it seems that his bombs...

RIO RANCHO, N.M. (KRQE) – Protesters have gathered about 100 feet away from the arena where President Trump will be speaking Monday night. The crowd has steadily grown in what’s been designated as the “Free Speech Zone” across the street from the entrance where Trump supporters are heading into the Sana Ana Star Center. So far, the protests have been peaceful, with people holding handmade anti-Trump signs. There has been some arguing back and forth with Trump’s supporters and some chanting. People in this crowd believe Trump will not win over New Mexico. “We’re all about love, we’re not about...

U.S. Democratic leaders in Congress said on Wednesday that President Donald Trump’s call for unity after suspicious packages were sent to leading Democratic figures “ring hollow” because of his past statements that condone acts of violence. “Time and time again, the president has condoned physical violence and divided Americans with his words and his actions,” Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and House of Representatives top Democrat Nancy Pelosi said in a statement. They cited the Republican president’s “support for the congressman who body-slammed a reporter, the neo-Nazis who killed a young woman in Charlottesville, his supporters at rallies who get...

The University of Mississippi has condemned a tweet by a faculty member that called on activists to abandon civility and harass Republican senators in public. “Don’t just interrupt a Senator’s meal, y’all,” James Thomas, an assistant professor of sociology, tweeted from his @Insurgent_Prof account on Oct. 6, the day Justice Brett Kavanaugh was sworn into the Supreme Court. “Put your whole damn fingers in their salads,” he wrote. “Take their apps and distribute them to the other diners. Bring boxes and take their food home with you on the way out. They don’t deserve your civility.”

It’s one thing to have activists act like bullies. It’s another thing for Democrats to egg them on. Former attorney general Eric Holder believes Michelle Obama was wrong when she famously said: “When they go low, we go high.” Rather, he told Democrats at a gathering in Georgia, “When they go low, we kick them.” What Holder meant was: “When they win a presidency through the constitutionally mandated process, and the duly elected president nominates a Supreme Court justice with a 12-year exceptional record on the bench, and the duly elected Senate follows all the rules and precedents set by...

Great new ad from the GOP

There’s a race to the bottom and then there’s a mutually agreed upon race to the sludge that settles at the bottom of a slough that actually can hurt people. Barack Obama’s former attorney general, Eric Holder, — who if you recall was actually found in contempt of Congress before exiting with the administration — fully disavowed former First Lady Michelle Obama’s famous phrase, “When they go low, we go high” on Tuesday and, instead advocated violence. “Michelle [Obama] always says, “When they go low, we go high,” Holder said. “No. When they go low, we kick them. Between Holder...

**SNIP** On MSNBC's "All In" on Tuesday, Waters (D-Calif.) - who has been criticized for encouraging people to harass Republicans in public - said Trump is the “poster boy for what a mob protester looks like.” Waters accused Trump of trying to portray peaceful anti-Kavanaugh protests as "mobs." "Well, this president is the poster boy for what a mob protester looks like," Waters said. "He’s the one who has been violent in his speech." **SNIP** "As a matter of fact, this country is past due for the kind of protests that we have seen women do in the last few...

I was in the Senate gallery this afternoon when Justice Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed. You would have thought I was at an exorcism in an insane asylum. Perhaps you were watching on television and heard the disruptions, though you certainly didn’t see them. The attenuated audio probably didn’t catch the frightening, incoherent shrieking – including the lingering screaming and howling as they were being dragged down the hallways outside the gallery. If there was any doubt that the opposition to Kavanaugh was unhinged, uncivil, disruptive, rude, and borderline nuts, my experience in the gallery made it clear. The first example...

The President of the University of Southern Maine is putting the brakes on a course that would have given students a college credit for protesting Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Women’s Studies Professor Susan Feiner attempted to offer a “pop-up course” that would allow USM undergraduate students to take a free bus trip to Washington D.C. Wednesday night. They would have been traveling with protesters and sexual assault survivors asking Senator Susan Collins to oppose Kavanaugh. “This is an opportunity for students to see history in the making,” said Feiner. It’s not clear how many students received the email advertising...

Some 200 protesters march across the lawn of the U.S. Capitol to the foot of the south wing. Inside, the U.S. Senate is wrapping up its debate, hours before the Saturday afternoon vote to confirm Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Members of the crowd rush up the steps, unfurl professionally printed banners, stand defiantly, and pump their fists in the air. “Whose house?” they shout. “Our house!” they answer. By the time of the vote, they’ve moved across the street to the Supreme Court building. After getting word of the vote, again they rush the steps. Two women climb the statues flanking...

The attenuated audio probably didn’t catch the frightening, incoherent shrieking – including the lingering screaming and howling as they were being dragged down the hallways outside the gallery. ... The first example came when Senator Cornyn rightfully railed against the mobs who spent the last three weeks assaulting and assailing Kavanaugh supporters. “Mob rule is necessary,” one...
