Live results: Alabamageddon
Why watch the results, then? Because: There are potentially major implications for Trump if Strange either strongly overperforms or underperforms. Trump has endorsed Strange repeatedly on Twitter over the past week; Strange is also backed by Mitch McConnell, who sees him as more of a team player in his caucus than either Brooks or Moore would be. (Case in point, both of the latter have endorsed ending the filibuster for legislation, something McConnell and a majority of the Senate oppose.)

Curtis wins Republican primary in Utah, favored to replace Chaffetz
The mayor in the Mormon stronghold of Provo won a three-way Republican primary Tuesday in the race to replace former Rep. Jason Chaffetz, putting him on track to clinch the congressional seat in the general election in the overwhelming GOP district.
John Curtis pulled off the win despite being dogged by attack ads from deep-pocketed outside groups in a race whose three candidates were emblematic of the divisions roiling the GOP under President Donald Trump.
The bottom-feeding belly-crawling reptiles commonly known as ‘democrats’ are forever whining about being “tolerant.” What they mean is we’re supposed to shut up and let them get away with their thuggish behavior without question. Of course, it only goes one way. If we object they shout us down. They would be nothing more than whiny little pissants were it not for the media protecting and defending them. On an even playing field they get bitch-slapped on a regular basis. The examples I’m citing here are all from yesterday and today. No need to archive anything, since they live on a steady diet of boorish behavior.
Cuccinelli Tells Liberal to ‘Shut Up!’ When CNN Host Won’t Stop Her Interruptions
After CNN Host Chris Cuomo failed to defend him from being repeatedly interrupted by former national press secretary for Bernie Sanders Symone Sanders, former Virginia attorney general Ken Cuccinelli finally took matters into his own hands, telling Sanders to “Shut up.”
SHE SURE GOT HER PANTIES IN A TWIST. IMAGINE THE BULLY IN “A CHRISTMAS STORY” AFTER RALPHIE KICKED HIS ASS.
CNN’s Symone Sanders Calls Out White Pundit Who Told Her To ‘Shut Up’ On Live TV
“I highly doubt if I were a white man, he would be telling me to shut up,” she told HuffPost.
His remarks came amid a discussion about the circumstances that led to Saturday’s rally. Sanders said Cuccinelli was “dismissing” the real danger of white supremacy and reminded him of how the violent demonstration was an “egregious symptom” of America’s widespread issues of racism.
Moments later, after Sanders briefly interrupted Cuccinelli to acknowledge the death that resulted from the rally, he replied: “Will you just shut up and let me finish, Simone?” http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/cnns-symone-sanders-calls-out-white-pundit-who-told-her-to-shut-up-on-live-tv_us_5991ba96e4b08a24727608f7?ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009
CNN Panel About Racism Gets Heated: ‘Shut Up for God’s Sake’
CNN’s Acosta Tussles with President Trump (Again)
The never-ending saga of CNN’s Jim Acosta making a fool of himself in front of the Trump White House took another turn on Monday, as he hurled questions at President Trump following a White House event that allowed the President to respond by calling him “fake news.”
Once Trump finished announcing a probe being launched into China’s questionable trade practices, Acosta yelled: “Mr. President, can you explain why you did not condemn those hate groups by name over the weekend?”
ACOSTA: And why are we not having a press conference today? You said on Friday we’ll have a press conference.
TRUMP: We had a press conference. We just had a press conference.
ACOSTA: Can we ask you some more questions then, sir?
TRUMP: It doesn’t bother me at all, but I like real news, not fake news. You’re fake news. Thank you everyone.
ACOSTA: With all due respect — Mr. President haven’t you spread a lot of fake news yourself, sir?
Acosta tweeted afterward about that final jab he got in at the President like it was such a proud achievement. Gold star for you, buddy. Not all heroes wear capes. You can find all of Jim Acosta’s faceplants here because, surely, those would be worth an infinite number of gold stars. https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/curtis-houck/2017/08/14/
CNN’s Jim Acosta Continues to Disrespect Our President and Should Be Immediately Removed from White House Premises
This time Acosta was way out of line. Never has a reporter been so brutally disrespectful to our American President. Acosta’s actions are embarrassing, childish and way out of line.
In all the years, this moment shows CNN at its worst and it showed how far down CNN has gone.
This is not the first time Acosta interrupted the President at a press conference. In January Acosta was as loud and obnoxious as any reporter has ever been at a news conference.
Again in February Acosta was in the White House and rude in his questioning of the President.
It is long past due that CNN removes their reporter Jim Acosta from the White House. His disrespect of our President shows his disrespect for the 30+ states that voted for President Trump and Acosta’s disrespect for the country as a whole.
THIS REPULSIVE SNOTWEASEL IS TROLLING FOR HIS OWN SHOW
Liberal Snowflake Suffers Major Meltdown After NY City Police Officer Cracks Joke
Far left protesters took over the streets of New York City on Monday night in anticipation of President Trump’s return to New York City.
THE LEFTARDS CAN’T TAKE A JOKE… THEY HAVE NO SOUL
One police officer told far left protesters to move away from Trump Tower and joked with them after they asked him why he was a police officer, “I sold my soul for a badge.”
This didn’t sit well with the indoctrinated snowflake. Poor girl suffered a major meltdown. “You roll your eyes because you’re f*cking weak! Cuz you know you’re wrong. Because you’re a man and you know you can roll your eyes at a young woman!”
There are actually TWO special elections today… One you probably know about, one you probably don’t.
In Alabama, it’s a barn burner of a primary in the race to replace Jeff Sessions in the U.S. Senate.
McConnell’s handpicked boy Luther Strange, Judge Roy Moore, and Mo Brooks, who was Cruz’ campaign manager during last year’s presidential primary. Most of the quotes from Strange attacking him came during that period when he criticized Trump. If no candidate gets more than 50% of the vote, there will be a runoff in October. For reasons known only to himself, Trump is said to be backing Strange, probably at the behest of the sniveling, backstabbing Senate majority leader, as he tries to solidify his elitist cabal.
The Battle of Alabama: Mitch McConnell Influence Test Comes Up Tuesday
The question as to whether Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will maintain a rock solid grip on power over his Senate GOP conference for years to come will face voters in a deep red state in Alabama on Tuesday, as the McConnell-backed appointment-created incumbent Sen. Luther Strange (R-AL) faces the serious possibility of losing his election before he even gets to a runoff.
It is worth noting that despite all his bluster about being pro-Trump, Strange and his campaign refused to appear on Breitbart News Saturday this weekend. He is refusing to appear in front of Trump-supporting audiences everywhere and has not been willing to publicly back the president and his agenda when it comes down to whether someone supports McConnell or supports Trump. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/08/13/the-battle-of-alabama-mitch-mcconnell-influence-test-comes-up-tuesday/
Alabama U.S. Senate GOP Primary Preview–What to Watch For
Moore has been a fixture in Alabama politics through the last three decades. He comes out of Etowah County, where he originally made a name for himself in the 1990s as a circuit court judge. At the time, he made waves by hanging a wooden plaque displaying the Ten Commandments behind his bench.
That display drew the ire of the American Civil Liberties Union, which filed suit in 1995. The ensuing controversy sealed Moore’s status as a national figure.
The attention Moore received from that suit catapulted him to win an election for chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court.
Moore and Brooks have both been the targets of an attack ad campaign by the Senate Leadership Fund, a super PAC controlled by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and which has been decidedly pro-Luther Strange.
The ads have focused on comments Brooks made while supporting Trump’s opponent Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) in last year’s GOP primary.
In recent days, the Senate Leadership Fund has also started targeting Roy Moore. One of their ads, titled “More for Moore,” suggests that Moore and his wife financially benefited from his Foundation for Moral Law, an organization Moore was a part of after being removed from the Alabama Supreme Court in 2003.

The primary getting far less attention is the one to replace useless slug Jason Chaffetz in Utah, another deep red state.
Race Tightens for Chaffetz’s House Seat a Day Before Primary
Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) shocked the country last year when he said he planned to step down from his seat. Now those in his GOP-dominated district will hit the polls on Tuesday to determine the GOP candidate for the special election, who will probably have no problem winning next November.
Who will win tomorrow? The GOP establishment has backed a candidate “with a Democratic past” while two other candidates have received backing “from national GOP heavy-hitters.” Massive money donations from outside super PACs have also helped narrow the lead from the establishment pick.
John Curtis, the Provo mayor who has drawn support from the GOP’s more moderate flank, is the only candidate who didn’t vote for Trump, saying he had significant moral concerns about supporting the billionaire businessman.
Tanner Ainge, the son of Boston Celtics president Danny Ainge endorsed by Sarah Palin, said he voted for Trump because he always votes for the Republican candidate in presidential elections.
George Bush won the war. Democrats lied about it and then Barack Obama waltzed in and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. This isn’t my politically-blinded opinion. This is what really happened. It’s what my kids, who were THERE, have told me.
The original plan was to do a post on different news — anything to avoid having to talk about the 800 pound gorilla in the room. But stoking the fires of racial hatred has always been a favorite sport of the media whores, taken to an art form by Emperor Barack I, who showed them how to do it. Fort Hood, Trayvon, Ferguson, Baltimore, always quick to accuse police and white people before any relevant facts are known. I believe his attitude was interpreted by some as approval to take revenge on innocent victims.
We have long been accused of racism, homophobia, xenophobia, sexism and all manner of other phobias. The handful of White Nationalists foolishly gave Antifa and BLM an excuse to do what they do best — beat up innocent people when they have them outnumbered 20-1. It was the validation of every leftist’s masturbatory fantasy of seeing white extremists get their comeuppance. Facts matter little when there is an agenda to be advanced.
The white group had a permit and a legal right to assemble. It was the obligation of law enforcement to keep the counter protesters at bay, as they did for the Nazis when they marched in Skokie. Then came the intervention by the lowest form of egg-sucking bastards who ever drew a dishonest breath,Terry McAuliffe, who ordered police to stand down. He pulled their valid permit and funnelled them into the waiting arms of mouth-breathing bastards who live to hurt people. If you think it sounds like a George Soros operation, you may be right.
President Trump came out and denounced ALL violence. That wasn’t nearly enough for the pricks who scream “BLACK LIVES MATTER.” He had to issue a second condemnation singling out the separatists.
Of course, when there exists a white-hot rage against someone who is despised as having interrupted their dreams of a socialist utopia the bile flows like an ocean tide.
Mainstream Media Exploit Charlottesville Violence to Help the Left
The mainstream media enjoys grousing about supposed threats to the First Amendment under President Donald Trump. But few are bothering to stand up for the basic right of freedom of speech in the wake of violent clashes in Charlottesville, Virginia between white supremacists and left-wing “anti-fascist” rioters. http://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2017/08/13/media-exploit-violence-help-democrats/
Charlottesville Mayor Michael Signer says Trump campaign gave hate groups ‘a reason to come in the light’
Signer said he believes that Trump’s campaign and the rhetoric that he used on the campaign trail last year emboldened racists and neo-Nazis across the country.
“I think they made a choice in that campaign, a very regrettable one, to really go to peoples prejudices, to go to the gutter,” Signer said. “These influences around the country, these anti-Semites, racists, Aryans, Nazis, KKK, they were always in the shadows, but they’ve been given a key and a reason to come in the light.”
Gov. McAuliffe in Charlottesville ‘No Place in America’ for Alt-Right, Refuses to Condemn AntiFa
Originally billed as a protest in favour of free speech — alongside the disdain over the removal of Confederate statues in the city — the “alt-right” rally found itself transformed into a torch-wielding, Nazi-flag waving dereliction of American values — at least considering the publicity afforded to the event, and the behaviour of some of the rally’s attendees. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/08/12/gov-mcauliffe-in-charlottesville-no-place-in-america-for-alt-right-refuses-to-condemn-antifa/
Reporter McKelway: Police Were Called Off When Violence Started – They Said, “We’re Leaving. It’s Too Dangerous”
But when the tear gas started to fly, thrown by protesters, the police themselves began to evacuate then. I asked the guy who was in charge, “Where you going?” He said, “We’re leaving. It’s too dangerous.” They had a chance to nip this thing in the bud and they chose not to.

Rich Lowry on Charlottesville: “There was violence on both sides”
Takes on Joy Reid Over “Anti-fascist” Violence, “White Nationalist” in White House
REID WAS SEETHING BECAUSE SHE WAS JUST A GUEST AND COULDN’T CUT LOWRY OFF LIKE SHE DOES AT MSDNC
Lowry made the point that the so-called “anti-fascists” in Charlottesville also engaged in violence, and the violence was not one-sided, as the videos show. Reid refused to admit that there was violence on both sides, claiming “there was certainly not.”
Kudos to Lowry for having the courage to confront Reid, someone generally unaccustomed to being contradicted.
Real Patriots vs “Resist A Fascist America” Fascist Protesters
August 9, 2017 – 8 AM – NYC – This was the first anti-fascist FASCIST speaker of the “No Nuclear War! The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!” protest. He droned on and on – while standing in front of their mock DRONE – about impeaching President Trump
“The Resist a Fascist America” FASCISTS gathered the day before the anniversary of Nagasaki, in front of Fox News, to defend the TOTALITARIAN hellhole called North Korea. The enemy (for them) is the United States (it’s not just the Trump/Pence “REGIME”). They never met a totalitarian government they wouldn’t DEFEND.
The counter-protest was small, but any opposition makes the anti-fascist FASCISTS very VERY upset, so standing up to their lies is worth it, knowing they can’t handle the truth.
The protest was led this day by Commie-Fascist Debra Sweet (of World Can’t Wait). Under Debra, the tone is never peaceful. This is a woman who sends her minions out to harass, confront, to shut down free speech. Not shy when it comes to initiating confrontation, Debra swirled around the public sidewalk commandeering this public space – no opposition allowed. Police and the opposition were relegated t0 the sidelines. The fascists conquerors made a grand play at calling the shots and using harassment to control “their space” this early morn.
She’s baaack. Fascist recruiter Eva Sahana shrieking her fascist mantra at the passersby on their way to work.
Harassing the Pro-Trump counter-protest was a very important mission for fascist leader Debra Sweet of World Can’t Wait and her minions.
Trump’s threats of nuclear war are a nightmare for humanity and the planet! This nightmare must end. The Trump Pence Regime Must Go.
Join RefuseFascism.org and protest in front of Fox News Headquarters to say NO! “The Trump/Pence Regime MUST GO” before they incinerate humanity.
THIS REGIME MUST BE STOPPED. The lives of millions of Black people, immigrants, women and lgbtq people hang in the balance along with the lives of billions of people around the world as the Trump/Pence Regime threatens North Korea with “fire and fury.” We must get organized NOW, in a serious way, to STOP THIS REGIME. http://pamelageller.com/2017/08/patriots-vs-no-nuclear-war-trumppence-regime-must-go-protest.html/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED HATE SPEECH…THIS IS FASCISTS EXERCISING THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH.
THIS HAS BEEN POSTED SO YOU KNOW WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE AND WHAT IS NOT.
Patriots, prepare for their “War in the Streets,” to turn the tide of their revolution.
I was going to add these bits and bites to Pete’s post, but it was taking too long to refresh.
HATE: Google’s firing of an engineer for committing a “thought crime” has encouraged an atmosphere of hate at Google, with employees tweeting openly that they are keeping track of colleagues guilty of WrongThink.
ABORTION: A Kansas medical board is considering whether to suspend or revoke a Planned Parenthood abortionist’s license after he failed to follow the law regarding a 13-year-old’s abortion. He claims he didn’t know her age. Uhhhhhhhhhhh … shouldn’t THAT qualify for suspension?! I mean, sheesh! Don’t they do some INTAKE at these “safe and legal” abortuarites? You know, like taking the patient’s name, age, weight, medical history, etc.
Perhaps it is fortuitous that this is God’s day and there’s nobody around. There has been a storm brewing for a very long time, instigated by that America-hating racial agitator who once lived in Chicago but is now a nomad, staying wherever he can squat on someone else’s property. It blew up yesterday when people legally obtained a permit to march in Charlottesville to protest the destruction of our history and demonstrate they were sick and tired of being blamed for all the atrocities perpetrated by the far left and their mindless henchmen to whom violence is a way of life.
FROM DIANNY AT PATRIOT RETORT:
And I find displays of racial supremacy repugnant and vile whether from Black Lives Matter or LaRaza or the Tiki Torch Idiots of “Unite the Right.”
But this is what happens when you normalize identity politics.
And that’s exactly what the Left has done.
The truth is, subdividing people by skin color is no longer fringe; it’s become the norm.
Teachers in grade schools, high schools, and colleges are berating white kids for something they have no control over – the color of their skin.
The media has perpetrated this divisiveness by celebrating Black Lives Matter while parroting the claims of “white privilege.”
So is it any surprise that there is pushback from people who claim to be on “the Right?”
This divisive identity politics is exactly what Hillary Clinton exploited in her run for the White House. And she’s exploiting it still by embracing the so-called ResistanceLOL.
THE MOST VICIOUS PUNK IN AMERICA, GOVERNOR TERRY McAULIFFE, ALLOWED THE ‘UNITE THEN RIGHT’ GROUP TO MARCH, THEN ALLOWED THE ANTIFA AND BLM TERRORISTS TO COME IN AND BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF PEACEFUL PROTESTERS. HE ORDERED THE POLICE TO STAND DOWN SO THE ANARCHISTS WHO HIDE THEIR FACES COULD ATTACK AND BEAT INNOCENT PEOPLE UP. A CAR PLOWED INTO A GROUP OF PEOPLE AND KILLED ONE AND INJURED 19. A POLICE HELICOPTER ALSO CRASHED AND TWO OFFICERS WERE KILLED..
THE HEADLINE SHOUT: THREE DEAD!! LIKE THE POOR GUY WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COPS’ DEATHS AS WELL.
THE MEDIA WHORES ARE EATING THIS UP, BLAMING WHITE PEOPLE IN GENERAL AND TRUMP IN PARTICULAR. HOLLYWOOD TYPES, OF COURSE, ARE WHINING ABOUT IT ALL BEING THE PRESIDENT’S FAULT. HE CONDEMNED ALL VIOLENCE, BUT THAT WASN’T GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM. THEY DEMANDED HE SINGLE OUT WHITE PEOPLE FOR BLAME. THE BLACKS WERE JUST INNOCENT LITTLE ANGELS. THE WHITES WERE REFERRED TO AS “WHITE SEPARATISTS”, WHITE NATIONALISTS”, FAR-RIGHT, ALT RIGHT, WHITE TRASH, ANY VILE LABEL THEY COULD THINK UP.
THE MSN ARTICLE WAS PARTICULARLY BIASED
Trump condemns Charlottesville violence but doesn’t single out white nationalists As news broke of a terrorist attack in Paris in November 2015, Trump immediately tweeted that he was praying for “the victims and hostages.” Very soon after a shooting at an Orlando nightclub in June 2016, Trump tweeted that he was “right on radical Islamic terrorism.”
But he kept quiet Saturday morning as a protest led by white nationalists, who arrived with torches and chants in Charlottesville, on Friday night, turned violent.
Trump’s candidacy excited many white nationalists, who were thrilled to hear Trump mock the Black Lives Matter movement on the campaign trail and declare that “all lives matter.” http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/trump-condemns-charlottesville-violence-but-doesn%e2%80%99t-single-out-white-nationalists/ar-AApW7Ln?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=UE12DHP

Who is Behind the Police Stepping Aside and Ignoring Facist Antifa Violence at Events Around the US?
SEE IF YOU CAN GUESS
For over a year at nearly every event NOT sponsored by Leftist Democrat and Black Lives Matter groups, the Police have stepped aside and allowed horrendous acts of criminal violence against event participants while rarely arresting anyone committing these heinous acts.
These violent groups, like Facist Antifa, are now inciting murder at these events. Who is allowing this to happen? Will the FBI please investigate these groups and who is ordering the police to allow them to commit violence?
REMEMBER THIS?

Michael Moore, Other Celebs Blame Trump For Charlottesville Riots
Michael Moore and other celebrities like Rob Reiner and Rosie O’Donnell were quick to blame President Donald Trump for the violence that broke out Saturday in Charlottesville, Virginia.
“Trump’s America: The last days of White rule. It’s always a bitch to have to give up power you’ve held for 300 years,” the 63-year-old filmmaker tweeted after riots broke out in the city during a white nationalist rally between white supremacists and counter protesters. http://dailycaller.com/2017/08/12/michael-moore-other-celebs-blame-trump-for-charlottesville-riots/
CALIFORNICATORS: ‘HEY,WE WANNA BURN SOME SHIT, TOO’
Demonstrators march through Oakland to protest white nationalist violence
Hundreds of protesters marched through Oakland on Saturday night, with some briefly blocking traffic on the Interstate 580 freeway in what organizers called an “emergency solidarity” demonstration in response to the violence at a white supremacist rally in Virginia that left one woman dead and many injured.
Earlier in the day, Bay Area politicians were among the flood of officials condemning the bloody clashes in Charlottesville and President Trump’s equivocal response, in which he did not single out neo-Nazis, members of the Ku Klux Klan or white nationalists, insisting that “hatred, bigotry and violence” were coming from “many sides.” http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Protesters-call-for-Oakland-demonstration-against-11813719.php
IT’S GONE THIS FAR…WHY STOP NOW?
TO THOSE OF YOU WHO WASTED YOUR TIME HERE, I THANK YOU
Los Feliz Daycare (motto: “We do not accept immunized children”) is an ultra-progressive child care center in an unspecified affluent neighborhood on the left coast. Some recent tweets:
HEAVEN—Remorseful for using terms that fly in the face of contemporary progressive sensibilities, God Almighty issued an apology Tuesday for the gendered language found throughout His Word, the Holy Bible.
“The fact that gendered language has been non-offensive for millennia is no excuse, since through my omniscience I knew that by the time the 21st Century rolled around it would no longer be considered acceptable,” the statement, miraculously delivered through a heavenly messenger, read in part.
“Please accept my deepest and most sincere apologies for using such offensive terminology when describing humankind and myself throughout the pages of Scripture, and feel free to edit the eternal Word of God so that it aligns more closely with your current, advanced understanding of the nature of things,” he continued, adding that it was never His intention to advance the agenda of the patriarchy.
“My choices were unfortunate and regrettable, and I have no intention of trying to mansplain them away. I will do better.”
Bible publishers worldwide reportedly began work Tuesday on new translations of the Holy Scriptures, removing any pronouns or phrases which specify a gender either directly or by implication.
“You roll your eyes because you’re f*cking weak! Cuz you know you’re wrong. Because you’re a man and you know you can roll your eyes at a young woman!”
As news broke of a terrorist attack in Paris in November 2015, Trump immediately tweeted that he was praying for “the victims and hostages.” Very soon after a shooting at an Orlando nightclub in June 2016, Trump tweeted that he was “right on radical Islamic terrorism.”
