Mika: Trump another example of right wing hate - UPDATED - Why no coverage of real death threats?

April 01, 2011
Wilson

Writer

Last week, Stu wrote a blog post about the #TrumpDoctrine, which consisted of all the crazy things that Donald Trump might do if elected President. But Stu, and most of America, isn’t really taking his comments all that seriously. Is he really running for President? Maybe. But it’s just as likely he’s trying to drum up ratings and promotion for himself. But that sure hasn’t stopped Mika Brzezinski for calling his statements “hate speech” and tying it all back to conservatives.

“When you thought of Donald Trump, I thought it was bad hair products.  I thought he was promoting Donald Trump, but I've never thought Donald Trump was promoting hate,” Glenn said.

Mika, on the other hand, feels differently. As her hosts were trying to steer the conversation to relevant topics, she took the opportunity to give Trump what he so desperately wants, attention.

“Because you're all are to afraid to say it, everyone likes to start this stuff.  But I like Donald very much.  Well, so do I but you know what?  I don't like this because I think this promotes hate and this brings us back.  And I thought we had gotten past this.  I really do.  And I don't care how he really feels about it.  There are more important things that we need to be talking about.  And he had a chance.  Everybody wanted to hear what he had to say because of exactly where we are in time in this country, and people were beginning to look at him.  And I'm sorry, this is a bad call,” Mika said.

“I thought we were past this, too, I really did,” Glenn said.

“We went through this period of, like, 18 months where they're like, ‘That's such hateful rhetoric, that's such hateful rhetoric, why are the tea parties, why are these people being so hateful, why, why, why, why, why’,” Glenn said.

“And then they [the left] would get on and say, ‘You know what we should do?  We should tear this country apart.  What we should really do is have all the communists come and take all the blood out of people because blood is red, communism is red, and then we sprinkle it all over people’,” he added.

“And nobody said anything.  I thought we were just into the communists and the socialists and the progressives saying hateful things and nobody recognizing it.”

“I, Mika, thought we were past the media and the left saying, ‘Well, that's such hateful rhetoric.  Why, why are they saying that?  We should stop this.’  I thought we were past that, too,” Glenn said.

Later in the show, Glenn returned to Mika's statements to ask why the mainstream media is ignoring real death threats directed at Wisconsin GOP senators from the left.

"So she thought she had gotten past this. Now, she's, probably doesn't like the fact that, you know, Donald Trump bringing up the birth certificate thing is promoting hate because there's so many other stories to report on, on hate, that they haven't gotten past yet. And I hate to even bring this up because the news media has spent so much time on the death threats to the GOP in Wisconsin," Glenn said.

"If I see another front page New York Times story on this, that the Republicans in Wisconsin are getting death threats from Wisconsin teachers and union members -" Pat joked.

Pat played the story on radio:

"The Dame County district attorney says 26‑year‑old Catherine Windels from the village of Cross Plains sent threatening e‑mails to 15 Republican state senators. Windels allegedly sent the messages the night of Wednesday, March 9th after Republicans passed the contentious collective bargaining bill and as thousands of demonstrators gathered outside the capitol. Among the e‑mails, quote: We feel that you and your Republican dictators have to die. I as well as many others know where you and your family live, end quote. The messengers went on to say a group was planning on, quote, putting a nice little bullet in your head."

A reporter added, "Senator Glenn Grothman was among the lawmakers threatened. On Thursday the state Department of Justice said it was concerned about a lack of action on the case. Dane County's district attorneys explained why officers did not originally arrest Windels."

"The person was not placed in custody. So at some point law enforcement did not see the person as an imminent threat immediately so that they would have put them in custody," the DA said.

"Are the teachers possibly complete plants?" Glenn asked sarcastically. "Man, talk about a Manchurian Candidate, forget about Obama.  Manchurian candidates, please, they're the teachers in Wisconsin.  Have you noticed none of them have shown their birth certificates?  None of them.  None of them," Glenn joked mocking Mika, Trump, birthers, union members, and teachers who send death threats all in one sentence.

This MUST be why Trump (allegedly) had NUCLEAR documents at Mar-a-Lago

According to the Washington Post's "anonymous sources," the FBI was looking for documents related to nuclear weapons during its raid of Mar-a-Lago.

Who could have guessed what Donald Trump did with those documents (never mind that he allegedly had them for over a year before the FBI actually did anything)? And who knows why they were searching through Melania's drawers for such top-secret information? Also, isn't it interesting that even after both Attorney General Merrick Garland and Donald Trump asked for the search warrant to be unsealed, only this very unspecific and very damning bit of information was "leaked" to the Washington Post? And just a few months before the midterm elections?

Since the DOJ still hasn't told us much (what was leaked to the media), Glenn did his best to present a few "theories" of his own on "The Glenn Beck Program" Friday. Watch the video clip below to hear more from "The Glenn Beck Program." Can't watch? Download the podcast here.

New details emerge about Trump raid — and 'it doesn't look good for the FBI'

New, alleged details about the raid of former President Donald Trump's home at Mar-a-Lago hint that it's "not looking good for the FBI," said BlazeTV host Glenn Beck on the radio program Thursday.

Trump has faced attacks from every direction, but despite all of it, he has "not been found guilty or had any kind of real, solid evidence against him," Glenn pointed out.

Glenn detailed a long list of investigations, accusations, and lawsuits against Trump, and the latest puzzling revelations about the FBI's raid of Mar-a-Lago, which only seem to raise even more questions. For example, did agents truly refuse to give Trump's lawyer a copy of the warrant upon arriving at the home? Because sources have alleged that his attorney was kept "10 feet away from the warrant" and was not allowed to actually read it. If that's true, then it was absolutely against the law.

Then there was the inordinate amount of time spent going through Melania Trump's closet. And did they have the proper authority to break into Trump's safe?

"That warrant had better damn well say that they can break into that safe because the law is, you can't go into somebody's house and ... just tear it all apart," Glenn said. "You have to have a pretty good idea of where things might be located, and you ask for permission for those areas. And you have to know exactly what you're looking for, and if it's in a safe, you need to specifically say, 'it's in a safe and we're having a safe cracker come in.' If they didn't say in the warrant that they could crack his safe, it's the fruit of the poisoned tree. By the way, there was nothing in the safe."

Glenn also explained that the FBI broke into a specific "safe room" that contained national archives, which Trump was allegedly told by investigators to keep in a locked room.

"[Trump] made a safe room, and put two locks on it, at their request. And that's what they broke into," Glenn said. "This doesn't look good for the FBI," he added.

The NEW 'Axis of Evil': Preparing for economic WAR with Russia & China

There’s an economic axis of evil taking shape right now, and the people in charge of our government are too stupid to acknowledge and deal with what’s happening. The U.S. dollar and the entire financial system are at stake, and, as Glenn Beck reveals on "Glenn TV" Wednesday, our enemies’ PUBLISHED plans to take the entire thing down.

While all of this is happening, our own leaders are making everything worse. We’ve got Nancy Pelosi risking an international incident, accelerating China’s plans to collapse us. And when Biden SHOULD be focusing on the security of our country, he’s instead preoccupied with controlling the weather with his Inflation "Reduction" Act.

Glenn exposes the TRUE numbers on what that bill will do to your family’s budget. Add to that, they’re more than doubling the IRS to make sure you feel the pain. And if you think they won’t come for you, look at what they just did to the former president of the United States. The DOJ and FBI just went after the political opponent of their boss, Joe Biden.

This is what they are focused on, and the threat to the dollar — and the entire financial system — isn’t even on their radar. Pain is coming for us, and they don’t care one bit.

Biden ACTUALLY expects you to believe 'our economy had 0% inflation' last month — isn't fooling anyone

Speaking before signing the “PACT Act of 2022” on Wednesday morning, President Joe Biden claimed that his wonderful economic plan "is working" and that somehow July’s annual inflation rate of 8.5% was actually “zero.”

“I just want to say a number: zero. Today we received news that our economy had 0% inflation in the month of July,” Biden said during a ceremony in the East Room of the White House.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre dutifully echoed the president's not-at-all misleading claim:

The truth of the matter is that last month's inflation rate of 8.5% was a (small) step in the right direction, but only because it was lower than June's 41-year high of 9.1% — and the thing is, anyone who's graduated kindergarten knows it.

So, who do White House personnel think they're fooling? On the radio program Wednesday, Glenn Beck and producer Stu Burguiere broke down how the Biden administration came to this latest disingenuous conclusion about the economy, what the latest consumer price index actually shows, and why the inevitable Biden brag-fest will be unbearable.
