OPERATION LEGEND: In July, the Trump administration started this program to send federal agents to cities with ongoing violent protests to help local law enforcement and to protect federal property.

To date: At least 1,000 have been arrested, more than 200 people have been charged with a federal crime, and roughly 400 firearms have been confiscated.

The effort was named in honor of 4-year-old LeGend Taliferro, who was shot and killed in the early morning hours of June 29 as he lay sleeping at his home in Kansas City, Mo.

Last week, a prosecutor announced second-degree murder charges against his accused killer.

2020: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez did not mention Joe Biden in her 30 minute speech on Tuesday night nominating Bernie Sanders.

After she shut up, they held a roll call vote and nominated Joe Biden for president.

2020_08 20 lying

LIARS: Democrats have used their convention to lie repeatedly about President Trump’s leadership during the pandemic. Just the News compiled a detailed list of more than 100 significant executive actions taken by the Trump administration to fight the virus since it spread from Wuhan, China, earlier this year. They range from fast-tracking a vaccine through public-private partnerships to sealing the border early on from infected locations.

They’ve also lied about the Trump economy, crediting Biden with the incredible job growth experienced prior to the coronavirus pandemic. You know, when Trump was president and Joe Biden was half of the previous administration whose economic recovery was the slowest since the Great Depression. Compared to the final year of the Obama administration, the rate of economic improvement under Trump’s leadership skyrocketed because of his deregulatory agenda and the 2017 tax reform law.

Michelle Obama tried to resurrect the old “Trump locked kids up in cages” lie, but even the AP couldn’t stomach that one. They trashed her with a True Fact Check. The cages were built under the Obama-Biden administration.

SLICK WILLY: A CBS poll from just last week showed that 44% of Democrats did not want to hear Hillary’s husband speak at the Democratic National Convention.

He did anyway. And he beclowned himself with his characterization of Trump as a man who doesn’t know what the Oval Office is for.

BIDEN: [1:18] – They’re not running Joe Biden for president. They’re running Kamala Harris. She’s probably already got a short list of potential VP appointees.

JUDICIAL MALPRACTICE: On August 11th, Judge Mary Brown of Dallas stripped Jeffrey Young of his parental rights, so his ex-wife can force their seven-year-old son to start taking puberty blockers in anticipation of having gender reassignment surgery.

The judge refused to give the father a hearing before granting the mother full custody. Interestingly, Jeffrey is actually the biological father, but they used a donor egg, so the whack job who wants to destroy her son’s life so she can have a daughter is NOT the boy’s biological parent.

Pray for Jeffrey and his son, James.

TOLERANCE: A slide show was shown to Goodyear employees at the Topeka plant.

It explained that the company has zero tolerance for employees expressing support for police, the unborn, and President Trump.

Goodyear responded to criticism with this piece of nonsense that totally ignores the very obvious fact that BLM are LGBT Pride are both known to be left-wing groups that are hostile to Republicans in general and Christian in particular, while Blue Lives Matter and All Lives Matter are right-wing mottoes adopted to counter the Democrats’ support for defunding police and unrestricted access to abortion.

Goodyear is committed to fostering an inclusive and respectful workplace where all of our associates can do their best in a spirit of teamwork. As part of this commitment, we do allow our associates to express their support on racial injustice and other equity issues but ask that they refrain from workplace expressions, verbal or otherwise, in support of political campaigning for any candidate or political party as well as other similar forms of advocacy that fall outside the scope of equity issues.”

On Wednesday afternoon, shares of Goodyear dropped 3.1%, while shares of rival tire maker Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. CTB, 1.28% and the U.S.-listed stock of Japan-based Bridgestone Corp. BRDCY, +1.47% climbed.

The Republican mayor of Coal Run, Ky., announced that his town will no longer be using Goodyear tires for police, fire, and emergency vehicles.

2020_08 20 not hate speech

TOLERANCE: An English professor at Iowa State issued a ‘GIANT WARNING’ on her course syllabus, instructing students that they may not submit papers making arguments with which she disagrees.

[Y]ou cannot choose any topic that takes at its base that one side doesn’t deserve the same basic human rights as you do (ie: no arguments against gay marriage, abortion, Black Lives Matter, Etc.) I take this seriously.”

The university has since released a statement describing Clark’s syllabus as “inconsistent” with its commitment to the First Amendment and the First Amendment rights of its students.

After reviewing this issue with the faculty member, the syllabus has been corrected to ensure it is consistent with university policy. Moreover, the faculty member is being provided additional information regarding the First Amendment policies of the university.”

TOLERANCE: Rome Smith was a county employee. Emphasis on “was.” He’s been canned for the “shockingly insensitive and racist in tone” of his message.

The Left started this whole “cancel culture” thing, with getting people fired for what they say on social media.

What a shock it must be for them to discover it works both ways.

PSA: Foh is an exclamation of abhorrence or contempt, similar to poh and fie.

COURT WIN: In 2017, a judge ruled that four pro-life laws Arkansas had passed were unconstitutional. The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has overturned it!

The laws include restrictions on how to dispose of aborted babies’ remains, a ban on sex-selective abortion, a requirement to notify police and preserve some fetal tissue from abortions committed on girls under 14, and a ban on dilation and evacuation (D&E) abortion procedures.

GRAMMY NOTES: Mama bought some materials to help her teach the Mascots in the way she wishes them to go.

I’m so glad she bought an extra copy of the illustrated Mass book for me. I was an Art History major!
