I will say her name: Ashli Babbitt. Killed by Capitol Police on January 6

The propagandists in the Democrat Party and their willing accomplices in the media continue to insult us with their details of the so-called “insurrection” at the U.S. Capitol on January 6. 

Their quick summary always states something like, “during the insurrection a woman was shot and killed inside the Capitol.”

Generally they avoid mentioning her name and who shot her.

Their hope is that by eliminating as many details as possible, and repeating their mini-version of the story over and over and over, the public at large will believe the shooter was a wild-eyed Trump supporter who crashed the Capitol and the victim was a Congressional staffer or perhaps even a Capitol police officer.

And that’s exactly what most in the public now think. 

Actually, as those read this website know, the deceased woman’s name is Ashli Babbitt. She was from Southern California. Ashli was 36 years old. There was a memorial held for her this Saturday. Those closest to Ashli described her as a loving, passionate, patriotic woman.

When the media’s talking heads do reveal Ashli’s identity they make her out to be a conspiracy kook.

Hardly the case.

According to a GoFundMe account set up to fund her memorial:

Ashli’s love for America started early. She joined the United States Air Force in 2003 at age 18 and served for the next 14 years. During that time, Ashli deployed four times.  It was during one of those deployments she was injured during an attack. Throughout her challenges, she never lost her unwavering patriotism and love for her country. After active duty, Ashli joined the National Guard and went back to school to earn a degree in business. She used that knowledge to run her own company along with her husband, Aaron.

She was also a proud supporter of President Trump. That’s why she was in Washington D.C. on January 6.

What do we know about the person who killed Ashli Babbitt?

Only that he or she is a Capitol Police officer. We’re told a preliminary investigation did not find enough evidence to criminally charge the officer.

Unlike other police killings in the United States, this officer’s identity is being withheld. Unlike other recent police killings, the victim’s name is not continually being repeated by talking heads and activists screaming, SAY HER NAME.

Ashli’s parents certainly raised a wonderful daughter. It sounds as if all of our lives would have benefited from knowing Ashli.

Let’s keep her family and friends in prayer.

Where did the Left learn their effective “fake news” tactics?

In Episode 80 of Hidden Headlines I discuss the effective use of Propaganda by the Democratic Party and the Left in general.

They have become excellent at making the public believe whatever fake news will serve their purposes.

Where did they learn this?

From the  “father of public relations,” Edward Bernays.

Edward Bernays could sell anything.

In his 1928 book, “Propaganda,” Bernays hypothesized that by understanding the group mind, it would be possible to manipulate people’s behavior without their even realizing it. For example, in his first big test of this hypothesis, Bernays launched one of his most famous public relations campaigns: convincing women to smoke.

In 1929, it was taboo for women to smoke in public and those who flouted convention were thought to be sexually permissive. Bernays’ client was George Washington Hill, president of the American Tobacco Company, who envisioned breaking this taboo to broaden the market for his Lucky Strike brand. Bernays asked Hill for permission to consult with New York’s leading psychoanalyst and Freud disciple, Dr. A.A. Brill, and was granted this unusual request.

This was the first but not the last time Bernays would consult with psychoanalysts to help shape his public relations campaigns. When asked what cigarettes symbolized to women, Brill’s response was that cigarettes were symbolic of male power.

Equating smoking with challenging male power was the cornerstone of Lucky Strike’s “Torches of Freedom” campaign, which debuted during New York’s annual Easter Parade on April 1, 1929. Bernays had procured a list of debutantes from the editor of Vogue magazine and pitched the idea that they could contribute to the expansion of women’s rights by lighting up cigarettes and smoking them in the most public of places—Fifth Avenue. The press was warned beforehand and couldn’t resist the story. The “Torches of Freedom Parade” was covered not only by the local papers, but also by newspapers nationwide and internationally. Bernays was duly convinced that linking products to emotions could cause people to behave irrationally. In reality, of course, women were no freer for having taken up smoking, but linking smoking to women’s rights fostered a feeling of independence.

Bernays not only helped move products, but he learned how to move ideology as well for politicians and non-profits.

The Left uses his books as their primary resources to this day: Covid, the January 6th “insurrection,” and so on.

It’s a fascinating podcast. Hope you’ll listen and share.

Insurrection by Trump Supporters? No — but the leftist mobs this summer WERE

What we witnessed yesterday in our Capitol was NOT insurrection. The insurrection occurred all summer in cities like Portland and Kenosha and were carried out by violent radicals associated with Antifa and Black Lives Matter, both of whom are enforcement arms of the Democrat party.
Just recall what Democratic state Rep. Cynthia Johnson (MI), said to supporters of President Donald Trump during a Facebook live video last month: “This is just a warning to you Trumpers,” she threatened: “Be careful, walk lightly, we ain’t playing with you. Enough of the shenanigans. Enough is enough. And for those of you who are soldiers, you know how to do it…make them pay.”
Many of the radicals we saw on the streets this summer, burning buildings, rioting, and seriously harming both citizens and police, were paid professionals trained by The Ruckus Society (ruckus.org), a group founded in Berkeley over twenty years ago. Ruckus equips extreme demonstrators in everything from political rhetoric to paramilitary tactics. Their motto is, Pick a Fight, Break the Rules, Build the New.
The tactics we saw these for-hire anarchists accomplishing yesterday included bursting barriers, scaling walls, breaking and entering, and stirring small portions of a massive crowd into a frenzy. This what these deviants are well-trained to do. Their calamitous acts are conveniently aided, abetted, and excused by a willing media.
As for yesterday’s gathering, what we saw were thousands upon thousands who understand where their country is headed without someone at the helm who is willing to stand up to an establishment filled with payoffs, blackmail, and murder.
And I’m talking about both Democrats and Republicans.
May God bless you, and may He have mercy on this nation.
My final social media post will follow soon.

Pelosi’s Covid Exception, Death by “Complication,” and Shots Fired

It’s certainly a strange time in American politics.

The COVID pandemic is so horrible that Democrat lawmakers have shut down businesses, ruined lives, kept kids from school, and forced healthy people to wear masks.
 
But Democrats like Nancy Pelosi don’t have to follow these rules. She’s not just essential, she’s special. In September Nancy Pelosi was caught getting a blow out at her San Francisco hair salon.
 
Then yesterday, in her desirous effort to maintain the Speaker’s gavel, Pelosi dragged Rep. Gwen Moore out of quarantine to vote for her as the House leader despite Moore having TESTED POSITIVE for the coronavirus just 6 days ago.
 
Pelosi needed her vote for speakership so Democrats decided to temporarily break the quarantine.
So much for safeguards against the pandemic.
And then there’s this: quite a few prominent Republicans have been dropping dead lately.
On December 29th, congressman-elect Luke Letlow of Louisiana died as a result of “complications” from COVID-19.  Luke was in good shape, 41, and died from “complications” of Covid-19, just days before he was set to be sworn into office.  Letlow, a Republican, was elected to represent Louisiana’s 5th Congressional District in a runoff this month.
On January 1st, the death of Virginia State Senator Ben Chafin Jr. made headlines all over the country. 
The 60-year-old Republican died of COVID-19 “complications.”
On January 2nd, Pennsylvania House Republican Caucus chairman Mike Reese suddenly died from “an apparent brain aneurysm”He was was said to be in great health and an avid outdoorsman. Reese was only 42 years old, and he was one of the most important members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly.
Also on January 2nd, a former state representative in Connecticut suddenly passed away.
Dick Foley, a former state representative from Oxford who served as chairman of the Connecticut Republican Party and was an adviser to several governors and would-be governors, died Saturday at his home. He was 71.
Of course, a few days ago I reported on the Kelly Loeffler staffer/former David Perdue intern/boyfriend to the Georgia governor’s daughter who was killed in that bizarre car crash which resembled an ISIS car bomb.
And then there’s Jovan Pulitzer, the man who has the ability to determine the validity of millions of ballots in a day. He and members of his team have been shot at! Pulitzer spoke last week in Georgia and offered to review the absentee ballots in Fulton county for free.  He said he could go through the 500,000 or so absentee ballots in the Atlanta based county in a couple hours and determine which ones are valid and which ones are frauds. Last Wednesday, the Georgia Senate passed a motion to have Pulitzer and his team go through the ballots there. One of Pulitzer’s team member’s took five shots through his house in a drive-by, right next to his daughter’s window.

Much of what I’ve described is an illustration of the Devil himself caught in a corner. The Bible makes it clear that often when about to lose, Satan gets vile. Just look what happened when King Herod discovered that a child who would be King (Messiah Jesus) was born in Bethlehem:

Then when Herod saw that he had been tricked by the magi, he became very enraged, and sent and slew all the male children who were in Bethlehem and all its vicinity, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the magi (Matthew 2:16).

I’m not sure exactly what happened to those representatives who suddenly died of late, but I do know dirty deeds occur in politics. I see all of this chaos and tragedy as Satan lashing out because he’s about to lose a big battle.
Given that this is such a monumental week, please take a moment to pray with me.
Lord, please protect the men and women who are fighting for justice. Supernaturally place a hedge of protection around them; and of course that includes President Trump. Give wisdom to those who are working hard to see the truth of this election fraud revealed–wisdom beyond their years and ability. And I pray that there are some–perhaps many–who have opposed this process of electoral discovery to suddenly switch sides and acknowledge the truth. Father, may the votes of millions not be stolen. Give the USA another chance to be a light to the nations. 
In the Savior’s Name. Amen.
