Whose enemies list contains Clintons, Obamas, Soros and CNN?

rhetorical question.

https://www.rawstory.com/2018/10/msnbc-reporter-blames-republican-conspiracy-theories-for-bombs-targeting-clinton-and-obama/

MSNBC reporter Hans Nichols put the blame for today’s attempts to bomb Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama squarely on the Republican party, saying their constant fearmongering and conspiracy theories had likely inspired the bomber.

“It’s an indication of just how seriously they are taking it here at the White House that we could have actual political violence with bombs detonating, potentially at homes of political leaders,” said Nichols, who said the White House did not “want to be in any way tied to it.”

Don’t forget, that’s one of trump’s favorite tricks. Makes me wonder what he’s up to while everybody is busy covering this new story - SERIES of stories. Why is all this going on, with explosive devices that all seem similar so far, turning up at different places at the same general time?

Authorities in NYC say this is “a pattern.” SHIT - now Governor Cuomo’s office has gotten one, too.

How many is that since George Soros got one on Monday night?

My guess is - this is a coordinated stunt to provoke fear, disruption, chaos, and intimidation. My husband is now reminding about Kristallnacht.

I wouldn’t put it past these trump bastards. Whatever works. Especially IF YOU’RE UP TO SOMETHING and you don’t want anybody nosing around while you’re setting it up.

What are they using this to distract our attention FROM?

Right-wing hate radio has peddled conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory against Democrats since the 1980s. Meanwhile, Newt Gingrich, Mitch McConnell and other "mainstream" Republicans have never really batted down these insane theories. They've even embraced some of them in order to win elections.

And don't think McTurtle is going to call for civility. Instead, he'll say he's getting death threats (without any evidence) and call for Democrats to disavow the "mob". He's partisan through and through.

WHO exactly is the "Angry Mob"?

I don't think that the people's exercise of free speech comes
anywhere close to some hate filled maniac's sending of bombs
to the people that "Il Duce" rails against during his fantasy rallies!

I also get a real kick out of how Mrs. Greenspan is busy playing "Both Siderism"
right now on MSNBC, trying to point out how bad Dems are too with their approaching
Repubs in public! Yes, the two things are truly equal! Gimme a break!

badly. The terrorist attacks on Democrats will not gain them votes, neither will it deter well thinkers from voting. Violence is the inevitable result of the hate rhetoric spewing out of the Whitehorse and GOP rallies. They are desperate, and showing it. Sadly l fear this is an acceleration that will continue until we are free from the tentacles of dictatorship.

If they gave MBS the data he needed and pushed him to take action against their mutual foe, they are murderers, and it's been reported that Kushner did exactly that. So, this could be just part of a murderous pattern against Democrats and any foe of drumpf. I also don't trust that they won't plant evidence to show it's the action of a Democrat, I don't trust this government, not one tiny little bit!! drumpf even outted himself as a Nazi yesterday, which was already obvious but now he's virtually admitting it. God, I wish something awful would happen to him quickly. So many lives would be saved.

they get mentioned now on a regular basis as enemies of america, wanting to destroy the constitution, etc

here's limbaugh yesterday and somewhere else he blamed soros again, been doing this ever since he got the memo to atack the caravan....

he does this shit all day every day when he's not making excuses for trump he's egging on the base

I check the New York Times and there it is spreading fear telling lies.
Election this caravan thing you know I continue to study this and try to pick it apart don't analyze it and make sense of it from a political standpoint. And I still can't find anywhere in the media any concern about it. I can't find anybody concerned or worried or thinking that it is anything abnormal about it. What you find in the drive by media is entire total mischaracterizations.

These are desperately poor people wonderful people fleeing poverty in their homeland and that's not at all what they are. They are part of an organized mob. There is no question about this. It is an organized mob and like everything else. The left is behind at some point in the future we're going to learn exactly how this thing was pulled up. We're going to learn who did it. We're going to learn who paid for it. We're going to learn who scripted just like we've learned how they did the Cavanaugh's thing with Dr. Ballsey (Ford) and how that was structured how that was planned how it was kept in reserve. What is that. Nothing that appears spontaneous or organic where it benefits the left is spontaneous or organic. It is all structured. It's all planned. It's all scripted and it's all paid for. It's all focus grouped.

It's poll tested and from their perspective and the the obvious. There's no look at this. You look at this caravan and it is it ought to scare everybody. It is exactly the threat this country has faced for years. We now have a focused concentrated microcosm of with 7000 people that maybe 8000 or 10000 if they get here by Election Day there's still a thousand miles away yet vowing to get here by Election Day. The drive bys claim they're walking they're not walking. They can't they'll never cover a thousand miles in two weeks and they're walking it physically not possible.
So when the cameras aren't there some of these people have to be being driven.

But it is all orchestrated. None of this is organic. None of it is real from the standpoint that individuals totaling 8000 people decided on the same day or in the same week or even in the same month to start walking from Honduras to the United States. That just didn't happen. It doesn't happen. Somebody is making this happen. Somebody set this up it obviously is a bunch of leftists to set this up and when you look at that and examine it from that standpoint you've you've got to wonder what it is that makes them think they are going to win massive elections. And it is clear to me not only examining the caravan the mob see there I go I even got caught up calling it what it is it's not a caravan it's a mob. It's a bought and paid for and structured scripted mob. The Democrats clearly believe and they have believed since the 2016 election that the way to win back their power is to stoke and create Trump hatred that they think organically naturally exists in either a majority of Americans or close to it. And that's what they're trying to capitalize on is massive Trump hatred massive Trump resentment they're not doing it by talking about issues now in individual campaigns you'll hear Democrats promised to repeal the tax cuts and roll back things that have led to economic prosperity. But in terms of the national message from the Democrat party you're not getting what you're getting trump fear Trump hatred promoting it and exacerbating it or what have you.


after reading a liberal’s angry tweet he spent a much of the 10/9/18 show doing this crap, over and over and over

The left does not wish to coexist with the right in this country they wish to extinguish the right.
This is our opposition. This is the American left today. This is the result of two generations of college education that campus and the the corruption and the perversion there has become mainstreamed in American pop culture. It's not on the fringes. Is my point. It's not out there on the fringes and it is not something that you would say that is not representative or descriptive of the mainstream of the American left. This is who they are.
According to Obama and the left America is not a country bound by common history or anything of the sort.

There is there is no common ethnicity. There is no common trace to our similarities. We don't have we have nothing in common at all. Instead America is a set of values a set of values and that's all America is a set of values The left defines build a country around but there's a dark side to that rather than culture and society and commonalty defining values.

The left defines values based on their political perversions and corruption. And if that's all a country has a set of values then somebody who does not share those values is not permitted to be a member of the community. And that's us folks conservatives we don't share their values their values define America. We're out.
And anybody who doesn't subscribe to them is not welcome in the so-called nation or the community. you don't share the values of the American left then you're not really a member of this national community. You're not deserving of its basic protections like presumption of innocence because you're flawed from the get go. If you don't share the values of Christine Ballsey Ford in the Senate Democrats on the committee then you don't get any presumption of innocence you don't get any benefit of the doubt. You don't deserve to be on the court because you represent a threat to their set of values. Illegal immigrants. They belong they are accepted members of the community provisionally because they share the same values.

I turned to Fox News to find their take on the attempted bombings and they say it's too early to put any political motivation behind the attempt. There is just not enough known, although the nation has never seen anything like this since the left wing Weather Underground...
