If the report from Axios is accurate, the nomination of communist Saule Omarova to Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is sunk.

However, this could also be viewed as an Overton window maneuver where the next radical nominated will be only slightly less communist, and thereby gain appointment.

AXIOS – […] In phone call on Wednesday, Sens. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) Mark Warner (D-Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), all members of the Senate Banking Committee, told Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) — the panel’s chairman — of their opposition. They’re joined in opposing her by Sens. John Hickenlooper (D-Colo.) and Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.). (more)

Senator Mark Warner’s opposition is a little unusual. Perhaps this is a downstream consequence of the recent Virginia election.  Regardless, at least this is one nomination that did not get through.   So far, Biden’s economic, energy and finance policies have been disastrous for Main Street; unfortunately, that also looks like a feature not a flaw.

[NEW YORK – Nov. 23, 2021] Project Veritas released a new video today refuting The New York Times’ legally flawed claim that the New York State Supreme Court acted in an “unconstitutional” way when it ruled that The Times must temporarily stop publishing Veritas’ attorney-client privileged communications with the attorneys representing Veritas in the defamation case, and further ordered The Times to explain the reasoning behind why they did so in an article earlier this month.

Veritas is currently suing The Times for defamation after they libelously labeled a September 2020 video exposing ballot harvesting in Minnesota as “deceptive.” The lawsuit was filed over a year ago. (read more)

At first I thought this was a parody of news media outlooks.  However, once I saw the article [ABC News] I realized it was not a spoof; it’s very real.

The San Francisco news desk of ABC7 actually has a position called “race and social justice reporter” who claims the term “looting” is a politically and culturally incorrect way to describe the looting that has been taking place over the past several days.  However, I’m not exactly sure of the journalist’s qualifications for reporting, because he also claims not to be able to see the race of the people doing the actual looting.  WATCH:

… In order for the ideological leftists to continue advancing their insane ideology, they have to pretend not to know things. Race and social justice reporter Julian Glover is certainly proving that point by pretending not to see who is doing the robberies.

For the past few weeks, rumors have been swirling about Nancy Pelosi traveling to the free state of Florida to view property for another home [link].   Everyone knows if Democrats get crushed in the 2022 mid-terms, she will exit congress faster than a fat kid playing dodge ball.  Pelosi was spotted on the same flight as Marjorie Taylor Greene [link], and then spotted again looking at a specific $25 million beach estate [link].

Obviously, it would be a little hypocritical for Speaker Pelosi to politically rail against the policies of Governor Ron DeSantis and yet support those policies with a physical move to the state.  However, that said, Democrats -particularly those in political leadership- are notorious for double standards.

John Cardillo indicates Speaker Pelosi has purchased this specific home on Jupiter Island:

There’s a lot of speculation, and not any specific evidence to support the claims.   Here is a LINK to the listing, which does show the home has recently changed to “pending” status.   The home sold in 2015 for $15 million and was then put up for sale again this year in May for $25 million.  That gives you an idea how rapid the home values in Florida have risen in the past few years.

If Pelosi has purchased that house, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will have a fun talking point in his reelection campaign; especially because the official Democrat funding mechanisms (Democrat Governors Association) have admitted it would be futile to try and defeat DeSantis – they ain’t wasting money trying.

The self-proclaimed black supremacist, who used his vehicle as a weapon to kill five people and injure 40 more, has his first court appearance scheduled for 2:00pm CT tomorrow (Tuesday November 23, 2021) [Details Here].

Suspect Darrell E. Brooks will have his preliminary hearing under the careful control of the U.S. Dept of Justice Community Relations Service (DOJ-CRS) who oversee all U.S. criminal cases when race is identified as the underlying motive for an attack.

Due to the high visibility of the case; and specifically because the DOJ-CRS are the primary stakeholder in the judicial proceedings {Go Deep}; the Community Relations Service has provided a court order instructing the Waukesha judiciary how they must engage/control media access.  [Media Instructions Here]  The CRS provides the template and Chief Judge Jennifer Dorow signs the order.

The primary concern for the CRS, aka ‘federal peacekeepers‘ is control over the national media narrative.  The techniques behind the court order are familiar:

Long term CTH readers have familiarity with how the peacekeepers work to tamp down issues and control criminal cases that are adverse to the interests of the federal government.

Ironically, and purposefully, the claimed need for national racial cohesiveness is the statutory justification for federal control.  Ironic, because the DOJ-CRS support the use of race for political benefit, then the CRS claims to protect national unity against the outcome from using race for political benefit.  The propaganda is thick.  I digress…

FOX6 did a great outline of the prior criminal record of Mr. Darrell Edward Brooks in one of their broadcasts.  WATCH:

With three independent eye witnesses {link}, and now confirmation from New York Post journalist Karol Markowicz {LINK}, we can confirm the suspect who was driving the maroon Ford Escape was a black male named: Darrell Edward Brooks Jr, 39 years-old, from Milwaukee Wisconsin.

[Screen Grab – Video Source] – [Mugshot Source]

Darrell Edward Brooks [aka Darrell Eugene Brooks, aka Quinton Feilcein] was seen driving the SUV into the crowd.  Twenty individuals were hit by the vehicle, some of them children.  There are fatalities.  Darrell Brooks was just released on a $1,000 cash bond November 19th, two days before his rampage. [Criminal Record Here]

Darrell Brooks was facing six charges related to domestic abuse, battery, disorderly conduct, bail jumping and resisting arrest.

Due to the race of the suspect and the likely motive, this was a race-based attack against white citizens in Waukesha, Wisconsin, in retaliation for the not guilty verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse case. It is almost certain the DOJ Community Relations Service (DOJ-CRS) is now taking the lead on the case [SEE HERE].

Controlling information from local officials and media is what the CRS does with criminal cases that have a racial component.  CRS is the only federal agency dedicated to working with community groups to resolve community conflicts and prevent and respond to alleged hate crimes arising from differences of race. {link}  Hence, Waukesha Police Chief Daniel Thompson told the media there would be no further comment until 1:00pm CT tomorrow.

Dr. Anthony Fauci appears on ABC News to discuss the new definitions of “fully vaccinated“, which now includes the need to receive booster shots.  However, one big issue that stands as a common sense counter argument to the efficacy of vaccines is the number of people dying with/from COVID-19 infections is now higher than it was before the vaccination program began.

Fauci ducks, dodges and weaves around the issue by claiming the Delta variant is more dangerous than the original SARS-CoV-2 infection.  However, scientists still debate whether the mRNA vaccine created the Delta variant.

Regardless, the baseline fact is that more people are presumably dying now with/from the virus -while the vaccine is in place- than were dying with/from the virus before the vaccine was introduced.  Meanwhile, the Fauci, CDC, NIH solution is to vaccinate more…  vaccinate harder… vaccine boosters for everyone.  The political science is committed to the vaccine approach.

A good article outlining why Kyle Rittenhouse was considered a specifically purposeful target for the regime is written at Powerline Blog by Paul Mirengoff [SEE HERE].

What the author essentially describes is something CTH readers have witnessed for over a decade, we called it “The Safari Principle” narrative; and it surfaced in its most modern form during the George Zimmerman case.

In essence, the underlying elements of the Safari Principle narrative begin with a pretense that victims of the mob, any mob or individual predator, have no one except themselves to blame because they did not follow the rules of the safari.  When in the proximity of any person, event or situation that is engaged in an unlawful act supported by the political left, you are not permitted to exit your vehicle or engage in activity that will lead to your targeting.

If you enter their “space to destroy“, you are to blame for your own outcome.  The safari narrative includes catch phrases like “he should not have gotten out of the car,” and “he shouldn’t have traveled to Kenosha,” all based on the same principle.

(Powerline) […] The Rittenhouse prosecution and the demonization of him by the left (including the left-wing media) stems from a simple premise. Leftists, including Antifa and BLM, have the right to take to the street causing chaos and property damage, and when they do, those who disagree with them must stand aside while leftists run riot. If they don’t stand aside, they have no right to defend themselves against members of the mob who come after them — even if someone points a gun at them (as Grosskreutz did). (read more)

The first advocacy for the modern “Safari Principle” surfaced prior to the George Zimmerman trial, in the summer of 2012, when the professionally aggrieved first began the narrative: “He shouldn’t have gotten out of his car”.

Historically, we used to blame the victim by saying he/she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. However, politically it became too difficult to define where the wrong places were, and simultaneously legislators continued to struggle defining the right vs. wrong times law abiding people were allowed to be in these places.

Historically, the political media were skilled at excusing transparently guilty.  However, in the aftermath of the Obama paradigm shift, where the media began accusing the transparently innocent, a more specific rule was needed.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson will be interviewing Kyle Rittenhouse as part of his Tucker Carlson Originals documentary series.  The interview will be broadcast Monday, November 22nd, at 8:00pm ET.

In addition to the interview, there will be a short documentary series as the Tucker Carlson producers have been on the ground with the defense team organizing footage for the program.  Mr. Carlson provided a preview today.  WATCH:

This is a little more interesting than Biden’s off-the-cuff remarks, because Kamala Harris was hand selected in the agreement between Barack Obama and James Clyburn to represent the public face of the professional political grievance industry.   In essence, activist agitation is the primary reason why team Obama put Kamala Harris into the office of the executive.   In the Rittenhouse aftermath, we see that Kamala purpose with a little more clarity.

In this video Kamala doesn’t wait to be asked, she rushes purposefully to the microphones and then instructs them on the purpose.  Its’ a rather telling moment in the background of why Kamala Harris was put into place. [27 seconds, WATCH]:

…”Hey guys, well it was a good trip and um, I know you have questions about the verdict; and the verdict really speaks for itself.  As many of you know I’ve spent a majority of my career working to make the criminal justice system more equitable, and clearly there’s a lot more work to do.”…
