Democrats and MSNBC watchers – which are pretty much the same thing – cannot tolerate anyone making a contrary point. On Monday afternoon‚ MSNBC host Katy Tur interviewed former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for almost 15 minutes. She asked the usual between-us-Democrats questions‚ starting with how much the Democrats can insure untrammeled abortion on demand if they can stay in power. Tur worried out loud that the anti-Israel protests on campus could hurt Democrats‚ as radical and violent protests at the 1968 convention helped elect Nixon. But Pelosi lost all patience with Tur at the tail end of an answer lasting two minutes and 40 seconds without interruption about how Biden is great: PELOSI: There are those who have real legitimate concerns about immigration‚ globalization‚ innovation‚ and what does that mean to their job and their family’s future&;#63; And we have to address those concerns. And Joe Biden is doing that. Created nine million jobs in his term in office. Donald Trump has the worst record of job loss of a president. So‚ we just have to make sure people know. Tur interjected with a fact: “That was during a global pandemic.” This inflamed Pelosi.   “He had the worst record of any president‚” Pelosi repeated in anger‚ karate-chopping the air in Tur's face. “We’ve had other concerns in our country. If you want to be an apologist for Donald Trump‚ that may be your role‚ but it ain’t mine.” “I don’t think anybody can accuse me of that‚” Tur said. Pelosi expects MSNBC hosts to be an apologist for Pelosi. Like Andrea Mitchell‚ Katy Tur hits the &;quot;Trending&;quot; bar on Twitter when the MSNBC base thinks they are so Republican they should just defect to Fox News. The big &;quot;Really American&;quot; account got out the flame emojis:  🚨If you only watch ONE video today‚ watch Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi stuffing Katy Tur into a locker for being &;quot;an apologist for Donald Trump&;quot; after Tur attempted to defend his abysmal job loss record. Extremely satisfying&;#33;🔥🔥pic.twitter.com/hPkVtfKr1o — Really American 🇺🇸 (@ReallyAmerican1) April 29‚ 2024 Tur closed out by asking about the House Democrats uniting against efforts by a few Republicans to remove current Speaker Mike Johnson‚ and then concluded with gushy thanks: &;quot;Thank you very much for joining us. It's really wonderful to see you in person. I appreciate it.&;quot;

New York Times national politics reporter Jazmine Ulloa has deputized herself to patrol the parameters of acceptable political discourse from her liberal perspective‚ attacked Republicans candidates again for daring to call the influx of immigrants across our southern border an “invasion‚” in Sunday’s edition: “Talk of an Immigrant ‘Invasion’ Grows in Republican Ads and Speech.” As the elections loom‚ Ulloa’s hypersensitive language radar seems tuned only to the words of one political party. A campaign ad from a Republican congressional candidate from Indiana sums up the arrival of migrants at the border with one word. He doesn’t call it a problem or a crisis. He calls it an “invasion.” .... It was not so long ago that the term invasion had been mostly relegated to the margins of the national immigration debate. Many candidates and political figures tended to avoid the word‚ which echoed demagoguery in previous centuries targeting Asian‚ Latino and European immigrants. Few mainstream Republicans dared use it. .... The resurgence of the term exemplifies the shift in Republican rhetoric in the era of former President Donald J. Trump and his right-wing supporters. Language once considered hostile has become common‚ sometimes precisely because it runs counter to politically correct sensibilities. Immigration has also become more divisive‚ with even Democratic mayors complaining about the number of migrants in their cities. Democrats and advocates for migrants denounce the word and its recent turn from being taboo. Historians and analysts who study political rhetoric have long warned that the term dehumanizes those to whom it refers and could stoke violence‚ noting that it appeared in writings by perpetrators of deadly mass shootings in Pittsburgh‚ Pa.; El Paso‚ Texas; and Buffalo‚ N.Y.‚ in recent years. If one truly wanted to police offensive and threatening language‚ Ulloa should look no further than a “pro-Palestinian” rally at the nearest “progressive” college campus. Republicans defend using the word and see it as an apt descriptor for a situation that they argue has intensified beyond crisis levels and one that could help sway voters. Ulloa extrapolated wildly‚ going from the word “invasion” to mass murder in three sentences flat. &;quot;Analysts&;quot; of &;quot;extremism&;quot; say the I-word suggests racism and anti-semitism. Analysts who study political rhetoric and extremism have continued to raise alarm that the word invasion and what they describe as similarly inflammatory language regarding immigration plays into replacement theory. The racist doctrine‚ which has circulated in far right-wing corners of the internet‚ holds that Western elites‚ sometimes manipulated by Jews‚ want to “replace” and disempower white Americans. The shooters in Pittsburgh‚ El Paso and Buffalo echoed the theory in online posts‚ and targeted Jews‚ Hispanics and Black people in their killings. She accused Donald Trump of “using language that invokes the racial hatred of Hitler” (Trump’s “poisoning the blood of our country” remark) before relaying concerns about “Republican fear-mongering about migrants&;quot; from a researcher at America’s Voice. America’s Voice is hardly a non-partisan one. Their main goal‚ according to the group’s website‚ is to “win reforms that put 11 million undocumented Americans on a path to full citizenship.&;quot;

House Democratic leaders announced that if GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia moves to oust House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) from the speakership‚ they will vote to table her motion.&;quot;We will vote to table Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's Motion to Vacate the Chair.

I'm a big believer in recorded votes because putting Congress on record allows every American to see the truth and provides transparency to our votes. Americans deserve to see the Uniparty on full display. I'm about to give them their coming out party&;#33;&;quot; — (@) GOP Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Republican Rep. Paul Gosar of Arizona have both cosponsored Greene's motion to vacate.&;quot;Hakeem Jeffries vows to save Mike Johnson's Speakership. Why wouldn't he&;#63; Johnson has given the Democrats everything they want‚&;quot; Massie tweeted on Tuesday‚ adding the hashtag‚ &;quot;#UnipartyReveal.&;quot; Massie noted in another tweet that Greene and he &;quot;will hold a press conference tomorrow at the Capitol triangle. Hakeem Jeffries endorsed Mike Johnson to remain as Speaker today. We will discuss how this affects the Motion to Vacate the #uniparty Speaker.&;quot; — (@) Like Blaze News&;#63; Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox.

A Mexico City man is being called the &;quot;Mexican Jeffrey Dahmer&;quot; after police found evidence inside his apartment that he was a serial killer. The relative of two of the alleged victims of Miguel Cortez told KTTV-TV that her sister and 17-year-old niece were the last victims of the accused serial killer. Angela Calles of Santa Ana said that Cortez raped and killed Maria Jose Castillo before attacking her mother‚ on April 16. Calles said her sister had returned from running errands to find Cortez after the attack. &;quot;She found this guy in my niece’s room‚ and she was already dead. He attacked my sister too. She has a stab wound on her leg‚ neck‚ left lung‚ and pelvic area‚&;quot; Calles explained. Cortez tried to flee from the scene‚ but neighbors were able to detain him until police could arrive. During the investigation‚ police searched the man's apartment and found human remains‚ including seven human craniums. &;quot;They found out he was a serial killer‚&;quot; Calles said. Cortez worked as a pharmaceutical chemist. In addition to blood-stained curtains being visible from the street‚ police said they found human bones in his apartment as well as a saw. Mexican prosecutors say they have filed seven homicide charges against Cortez‚ but the families of many people who are still missing in the area believe he may be involved in many more. Critics say that Mexican law enforcement doesn't do enough to investigate cases of missing people until the body count cannot be ignored. Mexico City prosecutor Ulises Lara tried to downplay the attacks by pointing out that only three of the alleged murders had been committed during the present administration. According to Lara‚ Miguel had been allegedly killing people for more than a decade. Lara also said that in the apartment‚ they had found “a series of notebooks that may well be narrations of the acts that Miguel carried out against his victims.”A GoFundMe donation account has been set up to help pay for medical expenses and for Calles' travel to Mexico City to take care of her sister‚ who is fighting for her life in the ICU. In addition to all of that‚ Calles is facing her own fight against cancer. &;quot;He’s a monster; he’s a monster‚&;quot; said Calles of Cortez.

Former President Donald Trump said that Israeli Prime Minister &;quot;Bibi Netanyahu rightfully has been criticized for what took place on October 7‚&;quot; according to Time‚ which noted that the transcript of Trump's remarks had been &;quot;lightly edited.&;quot; Terrorists perpetrated horrific atrocities‚ slaughtering‚ raping‚ and kidnapping people on October 7 last year.&;quot;I had a bad experience with Bibi‚&;quot; Trump said‚ according to the outlet. &;quot;And it had to do with Soleimani‚ because as you probably know by now‚ he dropped out just before the attack. And I said‚ 'What's that all about&;#63;' Because that was going to be a joint and all of a sudden‚ we were told that Israel was not doing it. And I was not happy about that. That was something I never forgot. And it showed me something.&;quot;During Trump's White House tenure‚ the U.S. announced that it had killed Qasem Soleimani. A Pentagon press release described the man as &;quot;the head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force.&;quot;&;quot;I would say that what happened on—the October 7 should have never happened‚&;quot; Trump said‚ according to Time. The presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee said‚ &;quot;People said that shouldn't have happened. They have the most sophisticated equipment. They had—everything was there to stop that. And a lot of people knew about it‚ you know‚ thousands and thousands of people knew about it‚ but Israel didn't know about it‚ and I think he's being blamed for that very strongly‚ being blamed.&;quot;Like Blaze News&;#63; Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox.
