Joy Behar of ‘The View’ has decided that lifetime appointments to the U.S. Supreme Court, and the Electoral College, both of which are enshrined in the United States Constitution, are un-American.
Do you think she would feel that way if the Supreme Court was majority liberal, or if the Electoral College system favored Democrats? Not a chance.
Who is she to decide what is un-American? Just a reminder… The View is considered part of ABC News.
Nicholas Fondacaro reports at NewsBusters:
We ‘Need to Fix’ It: Behar Decries the Constitution as ‘Un-American’
Joy Behar, the same co-host of ABC’s The View who thought the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) was the military alliance that defeated Adolf Hitler and the Nazis, was back with more of her wisdom during Friday’s show. According to her, two elements of the U.S. Constitution – both present since the founding – were “un-American.”
“These lifetime assignments [to the U.S. Supreme Court] have got to stop and they need to fix the Electoral College also because that’s un-American,” she shrieked.
Behar was triggered by newly released, years-old photos of an inverted American flag allegedly outside the home of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito several days AFTER the riot at the Capitol. The latest smear campaign against conservative justices suggested – without evidence – that it was to show solidarity with the rioters.
Ignoring or ignorant of the meaning of an inverted flag, Behar declared it was something wholly invented by “MAGA people”:

The View is one of the most politically toxic shows on television. It’s scary and sad that there are people who get their news from this ABC News sewer.

The list of failures and shortcomings of French President Emmanuel Macron is too long to compile, but suffice to say he has managed to antagonize the whole Republic against him – and it’s reported now that even his older wife Brigitte has lost her patience and is interfering on his train-wreck of a second (and last) Presidential mandate.
He went to Marseille and launched a ‘crackdown on trafficking’ – but police rounding up the usual low-level small fish is hardly a compensation for the debacle of the escape by drug kingpin Mohamed Amra, aka La Mouche (The Fly), was freed from a prison convoy in an audacious ambush that saw two prison officers killed and others wounded.
Below, we see the British press going at the Globalist poster boy, a former Rothschild banker with unusual vehemence.
Daily Mail reported:
“Since Macron took office promising a new dawn for his country, Islamic militants have burned churches, murdered a priest saying mass and beheaded a teacher who offended a Muslim student. Anti-Semitic incidents have increased 300 per cent. The Holocaust memorial in Paris was attacked this week and yesterday morning, police shot dead a man armed with a knife who set fire to a synagogue in Rouen.”
The Mail highlights that Paris will host the 2024 Olympics, which would be a spectacular opportunity for Macron to show off on a global stage.
But we’ve known for a while that security officials are ‘terrified that the games will also provide a platform for terrorists and criminals’.

Police is overwhelmed by criminality all over the country.
Macron is as weak as it gets.
Support for Marine Le Pen’s National Rally continues to rise.
Pollsters are certain that Le Pen is virtually certain to replace Macron in the next presidential election in 2027.
It’s quite a difference for the leader that arrived signaling hope and change for France.
“But all degenerated quickly. In the first months of his presidency he clumsily reduced taxes for the wealthy and increased those on the fuel vital to French workers, sparking months of violent protests that ended only with the Covid lockdowns. He was re-elected to a second five-year term in 2022 by a hugely reduced margin then weeks later lost control of the National Assembly in legislative elections.”
And the situation gets worse and worse. Widespread gun-related killings in Marseille and elsewhere, French troops expelled from Africa, near civil war in the French overseas territory of New Caledonia, in Oceania.
So his old-time ‘mentor’ and lover steps in to ‘save the day’.
“Meanwhile, with Macron in trouble, his wife (and former high-school drama teacher) Brigitte, 24 years his senior, is reportedly so exasperated that she is attempting to purge his senior advisers. Paris insiders call this the revenge of the ‘Madame wing’ of the Élysée Palace.
She’s thought to have been behind the president’s latest pathetic stunt, being photographed by the Elysee’s official photographer channelling Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky Balboa, pummelling a punch bag. The message was supposed to be that the president is tough. But boxing fans said his jab was feeble.”
The British paper says that is Macron good at ‘making announcements’ – what Politico called ‘The Grand Master of Grandstanding’.
“As for the Olympics, Macron, Panglossian as ever, has brushed aside security concerns and after a recent warning that the Seine is too contaminated with sewage to hold the open-water swimming events, has promised to dive in himself, to prove the water is safe. A promise as yet unfulfilled. Perhaps the Olympics will be a triumph, although it will be hard for Paris to match London 2012. Perhaps escaped prisoner Mohamed Amra will be captured. Perhaps Brigitte Macron can talk some sense into her husband — after all, he was her former pupil.”
Ouch! That is unexpectedly harsh even for Brits post-BREXIT.

Rudy Giuliani, the former Mayor of New York City and stalwart defender of law and order, was served with an Arizona indictment during his 80th birthday event in Palm Beach on Friday.
The indictment, issued by a state grand jury in Arizona, has indicted GOP state legislators, former Arizona GOP chairwoman Kelli Ward, and others who acted as alternate electors for Trump in 2020.
It was announced by Arizona’s Democrat Attorney General Kris Mayes. Critics have labeled Mayes’ actions as part of a broader Democratic strategy to intimidate and silence opposition ahead of the 2024 general election.
“We conducted a thorough and professional investigation over the past 13 months into the fake electors scheme in our state,” Arizona’s Democrat Attorney General Kris Mayes said in a video announcing the charges.
“I understand for some of you today didn’t come fast enough. And I know I’ll be criticized by others for conducting this investigation at all. But as I’ve stated before, and we’ll say here again, today, I will not allow American democracy to be undermined.”
AG Mayes defended her actions, claiming a commitment to protecting American democracy. Yet, her office’s tactics tell a different story. Knowing that the alternate electors would likely invoke their Fifth Amendment rights—a fundamental protection against self-incrimination—Mayes nonetheless compelled their appearance before a grand jury. This unusual strategy could easily prejudice the jurors into assuming guilt where none is proven.
The grand jury ultimately indicted 11 individuals associated with the Trump campaign, including state legislators and GOP activists.
Notably, President Trump himself was referred to as “Unindicted Coconspirator-1” linked to communications about ballot counting with former Governor Doug Ducey. Rudy Giuliani was also indicted, but his name was redacted.
For two days in April, Arizona officials were allegedly on a manhunt for Giuliani in New York City. They even resorted to sending certified mail, Spectrum News reported.
“Agents spent two days (April 25-26) in New York City attempting to serve the defendant at his residence. Multiple attempts to contact the defendant by telephone to arrange service were also unsuccessful. The defendant was also sent service via certified mail, we have not received notification that attempt was successful either,” wrote Richie Taylor, the communications director for Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes, in an email.
The evening of May 17 was supposed to be a joyous occasion honoring Giuliani’s decades of service to both his city and his country. However, it was overshadowed by a calculated move by Arizona’s Democratic Attorney General Kris Mayes, who chose this particular moment to serve Giuliani.
Sources close to Giuliani likened the scene to a military operation, stating that the serving of the indictment was executed “like it was Normandy,” disrupting not just Giuliani but also the attendees, including notable figures such as Roger Stone and Steve Bannon, according to The Post.

Ted Goodman, Giuliani’s political advisor, criticized the timing and approach of the service.
“It’s unfortunate that they chose to barge up and startle guests during a celebration of this man’s 80th birthday,” Goodman told The Post. “They could’ve shown a little more respect for the man who comforted the nation following September 11th and who stands up for law enforcement and the men and women in blue.”
New York Post reported:
In front of nearly 75 guests, two officials with Arizona’s attorney general’s office arrived at the shindig around 11 p.m. to hand Giuliani the papers in the case alleging he and 17 others were involved in a plot to overturn the 2020 election, the sources said.
Some partygoers started screaming and one woman even cried as Giuliani was served.
“While crime in Arizona is at an all-time high the Arizona Secretary of State’s office felt it was a good use of resources to send multiple agents across the country to storm an 80th birthday party like it was Normandy,” said Caroline Wren, a top GOP consultant, who hosted the birthday party at her home.
[…]
Giuliani was the last of the 18 defendants in the case to be served in the indictment that was returned by a grand jury last month, Arizona officials said.
After he was served, Giuliani got in his car and left, sources said. Charges against those indicted in the so-called “fake electors” plot include fraud, forgery, and conspiracy.
In an audacious and blatantly radical move, Kris Mayes boasted about serving Rudy Giuliani, arrogantly announcing, “The final defendant was served moments ago. Rudy Giuliani, nobody is above the law.”
The justice system is dead in America.

In November 2020 The Gateway Pundit published information on a little known YouTube video with only about 50 views at the time. In the video that was posted in August 2020, Gabriel Sterling joins in to discuss a number of things regarding the election process.
Gabriel Sterling was appointed the COO of the Secretary of State’s office by Brad Raffensperger shortly after Raffensperger was elected to the position in November 2018.
Sterling, as COO, would be in charge of budgetary, human resources and administrative operations for the Secretary of State’s office. Sterling, strangely, has also been referred to, in multiple media accounts, as Georgia’s “Statewide Voting System Implementation Manager.”
Starting at the 7:00 mark Sterling brags about expanding the emergency rule to provide for drop boxes to go through the entire election cycle now. Again this video was published in August 2020.
At the 8:00 mark Sterling brags about hiring election poll workers from the ACLU to work the elections in the state.
Gabe Sterling: “We allowed for early scanning of ballots. Those things come out of the SEB (State Election Board). And then we work with the county elections officials directly to train them, for them to train the poll workers. And this year we really stepped up a lot in terms of getting poll workers in, in the lieu of the COVID situation, we set up a portal. And as of today, working with our partners, especially the ACLU and the Metro Chamber of Commerce, we’ve already given over 6,000 names to counties for people to sign up as poll work.”
Here is the video.
How in the world did this far-left radical, Gabe Sterling, get hired as the Georgia statewide voting systems manager under Brad Raffensperger?
And what kind of Republican would partner with the ACLU to hire election workers to process absentee ballots?
Here is the entire video that is still live on YouTube.
In August 2023, investigative journalist Paul Sperry echoed our earlier reporting and confirmed via POIA records, that Fulton county officials in 2020 deputized hundreds of anti-Trump Democrats from the ACLU and gave them power to process absentee ballots.
Gabe Sterling bragged about this back in 2020.
BREAKING: New FOIA records reveal Fulton election officials in 2020 deputized 100s of anti-Trump Dems from ACLU, gave them power to process absentee ballot apps rec’d thru online portals & then equipped ACLU poll workers w/ iPads to cancel absentee ballots w/o county supervision
— Paul Sperry (@paulsperry_) August 24, 2023
In every battleground state in 2020 state officials hired election workers from far left groups who acted in completely lawless ways.
In Detroit, Michigan the far left poll workers threatened Republican poll workers and locked the door and boarded up the windows to prevent anyone was observing their “work” during the counting process.

In Philadelphia they locked out ALL Republican election observers from the counting room for days.
WOW! They Want You to Believe This! — Biden Gained Over 1 Million Votes in Pennsylvania SINCE THE MORNING AFTER THE ELECTION!
In both Philadelphia and Detroit far left election workers were allowed to drag in backpacks and suitcases into the election room.
WOW! They Want You to Believe This! — Biden Gained Over 1 Million Votes in Pennsylvania SINCE THE MORNING AFTER THE ELECTION!
In Georgia, leftist election workers were allowed to film inside the counting rooms where ballots were processed in private cubes and were scattered all over the counting room in piles!
NEW VIDEO Shows Anti-Trump Georgia Ballot Counter Ruby Freeman with Piles of Ballots, Walking Past Boxes of Ballots, Working Alone in Cubes WITH NO GOP OBSERVERS IN SIGHT!
And now this…
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and his sidekick Gabe Sterling are already working with a Soros-funded group to ensure that only leftist election workers will be hired in Georgia this year.
Is the Republican Party paying attention?
Natalie Winters at The War Room reported:
George Soros and a slew of anti-Trump activists are backing an effort to recruit poll workers for the 2024 election in collaboration with state election offices.
Founded in 2020, Power The Polls appears to be gearing up for the 2024 election, recently announcing a new Advisory council to roll out a vast army of poll watchers ahead of November. The group boasts of recruiting over 700,000 poll workers for the 2020 election and is currently working with state election offices including Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger ahead of the 2024 election.
Politico noted that Power the Polls was “stood up” by the Open Society Foundation, the hub of Soros’ political activism and far-left giving. A deeper investigation reveals the group is part of Work Elections, which is a project of the Fair Election Network. In turn, the Fair Election Network is backed by the New Venture Fund, the leading billion-dollar dark money group supports President Joe Biden and counts Soros among its donors.
Similarly, individuals from far-left activist organizations that have received funds from Soros-linked groups including the Open Society Foundation and New Venture Fund such as the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition, llumiNative, and the Civic Rights Responsibility Project are on the advisory council.
While Power The Polls, which describes itself as the “nonpartisan leader in poll worker recruitment” claimed the new 14-member group was a “bipartisan” effort, its lack of any pro-Trump activists suggest otherwise. Furthermore, the council is co-chaired by actress Kerry Washington and infamous critic of President Trump Rep. Adam Kinzinger…
…Even more concerning, however, is the participation of current election officials including Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and his Chief Operating Officer Gabriel Sterling. It remains unclear the scope of Power the Polls’s influence over these offices. Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar, for example, is also involved, alluding to collaboration between his office and Power the Polls: “By connecting election officials with potential poll workers, Power the Polls helps jurisdictions across the country serve voters and ensure safe and fair elections.”
Brad Raffensperger and Gabe Sterling are up to their old tricks again to do all they can to steal the 2024 election from Donald Trump. Why not? It worked last time.
Republicans, are you paying attention?

This week in culture and politics was funny, borderline hilarious, if some of these events weren’t in fact real.
From artist Scott Lobaido releasing 1,000 penis-shaped balloons donning the images of political partisans involved in President Trump’s persecution to US Congress talking about adult beverages in a hearing, fake eye lashes, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shouting to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green: “Baby Girl!

With all of these comical distractions going on, there is still a critical trial taking place in New York. Prosecutors in the “hush money” trial are expected to rest their case on Monday after Michael Cohen’s testimony wraps up. Yesterday, Trump attorney Todd Blanche put Cohen through the ringer, flat out calling him a “liar!” as Cohen gets a little loose with his recollection of a 1 minute 36 second phone call with Trump’s body guard over a prank-caller. Cohen alleged the call was to regarding the payment to Stormy Daniels, but, as the Daily Beast pointed out, text messages before and after that call don’t support that claim. Yes, the Daily Beast…as if this week needed more hilarity.
Even CNN’s Anderson Cooper couldn’t help but carefully tip-toe around how awful Cohen’s testimony was.
Perhaps Cohen can find consolation in his prison pen-pal! According to the New York Times, Michael Cohen, the self-proclaimed “sex symbol” according to Michael Avenatti, has been cozying up to Rosie O’Donnell.
Unlike many, I have been consistent for 6 years: Michael Cohen is a liar and a total fraud/narcissist who cares only about himself. And let us not forget about @womenforcohen and the 700+ ridiculous posts he fabricated in an effort to paint himself as a brilliant attorney, sex…
— Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) May 15, 2024
The New York Times reported that Rosie texted Michael Cohen on Monday before the trial: “breathe – relax – tell the truth – u got this – i love u.” An hour later, she texted him “Ur doing great.”
Cohen reportedly responded, “Thank you and truly love you.”
Sometime during his incarceration, Rosie said that she got his inmate number and sent him a letter. A six-page long letter. The NYT reported:
In the letter, Ms. O’Donnell said she believed that Mr. Cohen had helped Mr. Trump wage his campaign to discredit her. Nevertheless, she said, she was grateful to him, and viewed his decision to turn on his boss as an act of heroism. She believed in redemption and wanted Mr. Cohen to know that she forgave him for everything that had transpired between her and Mr. Trump.
“When someone is in a relationship that unhealthy and breaks free, it’s a very lonely time,” she said on Monday, adding that she did not necessarily expect to hear back from Mr. Cohen. She also realized he might not be seeking her forgiveness.
But Inmate No. 86067-054 soon wrote back.
“He asked me to come visit him,” Ms. O’Donnell said. The last person she visited in prison, in 2004, was her friend Martha Stewart, who was serving five months in a federal penitentiary on charges related to insider trading.
Rosie would go on to visit Inmate No. 86067-054 in Otisville. She anticipated spending about an hour with him but ended up hitting it off and talking for more than six hours.
During her visit, ‘No. 054’ (for short) introduced her to his friends.
“Michael was sort of proudly introducing me to people, the friends he had met there.”
Rosie even said that “they held hands” at one point during the conversation.
Did anyone have ‘Michael Cohen befriending Rosie O’Donnell’ on their “the absurdity that is 2024” bingo card?

Rossana Rodriguez, a self-described socialist serving on Chicago’s city council, believes the idea of punishing criminals is racist.
What does she think should be done with rapists and murderers? Summer camp?
When you look at the breakdown of law and order in cities across the United States, remember that the chaos is being driven by people like this. They are the problem.
FOX News reports:
Socialist Chicago council member says it’s ‘racist’ to punish criminals, America is a ‘garbage society’
A socialist member of Chicago’s city council believes that the idea of using police to ensure safe streets and punishing criminals is “racist” while calling America a “garbage society.”
Rossana Rodriguez is an alderwoman on Chicago’s city council who supports defunding the police and caucuses with the Democratic Socialists. The alderwoman, who explicitly calls for “critical race theory” to be taught to children, is also involved in the council’s Education and Child Development committee.
The alderwoman repeatedly blasts American society in her frequent social media tirades.
According to the councilmember, America is “a garbage society” and “a White supremacist society and system” that “favors White people.” Rodriguez believes that “White people are ahead in the game” in comparison to minority groups…
“When we say #DefundThePolice we mean developing alternatives to racist punishment and brutality. This work has been around for a while and it’s a great tool to rethink our ideas of what public safety should look like,” Rodrigues said in response to a post about “police abolition” in 2020.
Here is Rodriguez pictured wearing a shirt that says ‘eat the rich.’
