Has COVID caused the left to tip its hand too soon?

The New Neo Posted on May 21, 2020 by neoMay 21, 2020

I’ve been somewhat puzzled by the extreme reaction of the leftist governors to COVID. Don’t get me wrong; I think I understand what’s behind it: some combination of extreme eagerness to control the peons under their rule, and exploitation and … Continue reading →

Ratcliffe confirmed…

The New Neo Posted on May 21, 2020 by neoMay 21, 2020

…as director of national intelligence. That’s a role that’s been rather in the news lately, isn’t it? Here’s a take on it from the Guardian that almost made me laugh: “Trump loyalist John Ratcliffe confirmed as new US intelligence chief.” … Continue reading →

Susan Rice and the memo: the lady doth protest too much, methinks

The New Neo Posted on May 20, 2020 by neoMay 20, 2020

We’ve known for a long time that Susan Rice wrote a strange CYA memo on Inauguration Day that said President Obama: …wanted to be sure “every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities ‘by … Continue reading →

Unmasking, then and now (and Joe Biden then and now)

The New Neo Posted on May 16, 2020 by neoMay 16, 2020

I bet you won’t be surprised to learn that the Democrats, including Joe Biden, were very concerned and upset in 2005 when John Bolton had requested unmasking 10 times within the four years he’d been Bush’s Under Secretary of State … Continue reading →

How unmasking works – and how it worked under Obama

The New Neo Posted on May 15, 2020 by neoMay 15, 2020

Hee’s how unmasking generally works: When unmasking occurs, it must be based upon a valid reason, and only for the person who requests the unmasking; intelligence reports do not get re-disseminated with the name or statements of the U.S. person … Continue reading →

Liberals and liberty

The New Neo Posted on May 15, 2020 by neoMay 15, 2020

Liberals may be into freedom in the sense of throwing off what they consider the shackles of tradition in sexual, cultural, and religious matters, but they don’t seem to be into liberty anymore, and haven’t been for quite some time. … Continue reading →

Perhaps you thought the Flynn case couldn’t get any worse

The New Neo Posted on May 13, 2020 by neoMay 13, 2020

Well, think again. It just got a lot, lot worse. As the pressure builds on the higher-up perpetrators of the attempted coup against Trump – Brennan, Comey, Clapper, and even to a certain extent Obama himself – the Resistance ratchets … Continue reading →

GOP does well in special elections for Congress

The New Neo Posted on May 13, 2020 by neoMay 13, 2020

[See UPDATE below.] Special elections are – well – special. Turnout is often different than in the general, for example. And this year they are especially special, because of the virus, which meant that these were almost entirely mail-in in … Continue reading →

The Flynn case: ask a liberal friend

The New Neo Posted on May 12, 2020 by neoMay 12, 2020

I’ve been thinking about talking to some of my liberal friends about the Flynn case revelations. I’m wondering if they’re even familiar with them, since their news source is the usual MSM. And if they are aware of the latest … Continue reading →

Why did Chuck Todd lie so blatantly about what Bill Barr said?

The New Neo Posted on May 11, 2020 by neoMay 11, 2020

Todd used the old technique of deceptive editing: The completely dishonest editing by Chuck Todd on Meet the Press is exposed below. Attorney General Bill Barr DID “make the case” that he was upholding the rule of law, but Todd … Continue reading →

A “pretty darn invested” Obama rallies the troops and gives them their talking points

The New Neo Posted on May 9, 2020 by neoMay 9, 2020

Within moments of the Russiagate document release, the left and MSM chorused nearly the same thing almost in unison: this is a travesty of justice! And they weren’t talking about the wretched excesses of the state apparatus regarding the framing … Continue reading →

The press, the people, Russiagate, and the truth – plus, whistleblowers?

The New Neo Posted on May 9, 2020 by neoMay 9, 2020

From commenter “Cornhead”: When there are indictments this summer the Fake News can’t ignore that. Actually, they could. But I agree that they won’t. What they’ll actually do is call it a politically motivated lynching, the worst miscarriage of justice … Continue reading →
