Here is yet another reason why no one should take CNN seriously.
The same network that has accused the GOP of “genocide” and ending the country” for violence from Trump supporters on January 6, spent this morning defending a Democrat for what many would call, openly encouraging violence from left-wing protesters (while intimidating a jury!)
California Democrat Maxine Waters went to Minneapolis this weekend to encourage Black Lives Matter protesters to ignore curfews and get more “confrontational” if the jury does not find Derek Chauvin, guilty of murder. She added, “We’ve got to make sure that they know that we mean business” and that they would “not go away” if he was acquitted. Waters made these comments after several days of violent riots and just hours before the Minnesota National Guard and police were shot at in a drive-by shooting in Minneapolis.
After several Republicans called out the Democrat for “inciting violence”, CNN’s New Day spent two segments attacking the GOP instead.
During the 7 am hour, Berman went on a tirade ripping Senator Ted Cruz [R-TX] for calling out Waters.
“That’s Ted Cruz of the not accepting the election results before or after the insurrection, Cruzes, which might lead one to wonder if this is a case of the pot calling the kettle, violent,” he mocked. After playing a montage which included President Trump and Cruz encouraging protesters to “fight for the country,”
Berman added, “Also, it’s not like this guy is some peaceful prophet of gentility. This is a man who wants to do unspeakable things to books that say mean things about him!” he whined, quoting Cruz mockingly encouraging supporters to burn or take a chainsaw to John Boehner’s book, after the retired congressman repeatedly bashed Cruz to promote his book. Berman ended his rant with this snarky zinger, “Ted Cruz needs to look in the mirror, which can be tough, especially for him because you know what they say. When the going gets tough, the pot goes to Cancun.”
Attacking Republicans with false equivalencies while ignoring Waters continued into the 8 am hour.
Co-host Brianna Keilar was reluctant to criticize Waters but was more disgusted by the Democrat’s critics:
Certainly Waters should answer for her words when everyone is on edge. But the irony here is just the stench of it. Republicans like Kevin McCarthy, who has repeatedly given cover to other Republican who have called in such explicit terms for violence. I’m thinking Marjorie Taylor Greene. I’m thinking Donald Trump. The irony here is thick.
Guest Matthew Dowd, formerly an ABC News political analyst, went so far as to argue nothing Waters said deserved criticism. He also likened anti-police protesters to the Civil Rights movement:
It’s incredibly thick and so is the hypocrisy on this, not the least to mention January 6th and what happened on January 6th and the number of Republicans that their words incited that. I actually just listened to Maxine Waters. We all have to be cognizant of what we say. I don’t think what she said in anyway should, we should criticize her for. Of course, we should be more confrontational. That doesn’t mean we should be more violent. But I was thinking about this as I was listening, is Emmett Till was killed in 1955, an all-white jury found the people that did it innocent. Then Medgar Evers, Jimmie Lee Jackson, so many of these folks that were guilty of killings and civil rights were then let off. And the only thing that led to the civil rights legislation to finally pass in 1965 was you know non-violent protests and so I think that’s where we’re going to end up today. The Republicans seem to me on the complete wrong side of history on this.

BRIANNA KEILAR: House minority leader Kevin McCarthy is calling for action against Democrat Maxine Waters. He’s accusing her of inciting violence for remarks she made on Saturday night when asked what protesters should do if Derek Chauvin is not convicted for murdering George Floyd.
REP. MAXINE WATERS [D-CA]: We got to stay on the street. We got to get more active, we got to get more confrontational, we’ve got to get more — we’ve got to make sure that they know that we mean business.
KEILAR: Joining us now chief strategist for the Bush-Cheney 2004 presidential campaign and the founder of Country Over Party Mathew Dowd is with us. Mathew, thank you so much for lending your perspective here. Certainly Waters should answer for her words when everyone is on edge. But the irony here is just so the stench of it. Republicans like Kevin McCarthy, who has repeatedly given cover to other Republican who have called in such explicit terms for violence. I’m thinking Marjorie Taylor Greene. I’m thinking Donald Trump. The irony here is thick.

Waters is nothing but a senile silverback gorilla that either needs to be sent back to the Congo or put in a zoo!
Or at the end of a rope.
Does anyone know who she is and does anyone still watch CNN? Hilarious!
CNN defends MAXINE the communist of course .COMMUNISTS defend each other. if America is so terrible how come the UGLY old bat is still in Congress and very rich? BECAUSE old and UGLY would be poor in Africa. she’d be just another bigmourh old black woman .
I’ve heard it’s watched by people that go to airports, that’s it.
We need some nut with an ar to pay a visit to cnn and get the homos first.

THE 45 COMMUNIST GOALS AS READ INTO THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD, 1963
America in Free-fall (I dare you to read all of this and pass it on)
Communist Revolution in America.
If you were a fervent America-hating Marxist living in the United States, what would you do with a nation that is rich, powerful, and highly successful? What do you do with a nation that has religious freedom, is basically a moral country, respectful of law and order with the Judeo-Christian principles of hard work, the dignity of human life, strong family ties, common decency, a strong desire for education, and a sense of accountability to God?
America has freedom, capitalism, the opportunity to go up the economic ladder as far as your willingness to work hard. It is not a perfect country. Some of its past, like every other country on this planet, is dubious, but it is constantly improving, rearranging, and evolving. It is the envy of the world. You don’t want an educated, moral, focused youth.
What do you do when you have a commitment to turn this nation around to your way of thinking? Now, remember, this is not early 20th century Russia where people lived the life of serfs and Europe was in the midst of an industrial revolution, modernizing, and living in relative comfort.
You certainly don’t try to instigate a violent revolution. Revolution against what? Freedom? No, you change the culture. You let the people make the change.
They just need a push in the left direction. You find its past faults and pull off any scabs you can find to stop the healing. You use their freedom to destroy them.
They are not going to prevent you from speaking. You know it will take decades, but you are willing to put the time in. By the time they figure out what is going on, it will be too late.
You have support from other Communist countries like the old Soviet Union and now Communist China.
Stalin supported various Marxist organizations in the United States by sending people and money (McCarthy was right).
Early on you manage to get your comrades hired as professors, teachers, and philosophers in major universities. The students will listen to you because your theories are quaint, and America is an open society, curious, with freedom of speech. They will always listen to you even if just to avoid being rude, but enough people will always be taken in.
You branch out into America’s favorite pastimes, Hollywood and music. You introduce nudity in movies, a little at first, and then rock music that goes from love songs to heavy metal, satanic at its core. You encourage sexual promiscuity, but call it sexual freedom. You know the by-product will be abortion, thereby cheapening life itself. You pit one group against the other, not fighting racism or misogyny but inflaming it.
You replace a God-centered ethic to a self-centered ethic. You can now freely choose your sexual preference, gender preference, kill your child, whatever.
When enough young people begin to listen, you tell them to live for themselves, tune in, drop out, feel good, experiment with drugs and all that life has to offer. Parents don’t understand, but so what. What do they know? You don’t want an educated, moral, focused youth.
The country now is in a free-fall.
You go into the news business, both TV, print and PC, writing editorials, turning news from information to indoctrination and propaganda, following the path that education took years before.
Your greatest accomplishment so far…you took over a major political party. Luckily, there are millions of people who are sleeping, still thinking the Democrat Party is John Kennedy and believing that government is the answer to all our ills…perfect.
With Donald Trump, your comrades did not have a president willing to play along. He fought you at every turn and was doing much too good of a job. Instead of congratulating him, you fought back with lies, impeachment and then a minor pandemic treated like the Black Death, planned years before to destroy the greatest economy we have ever seen.
When all that failed the big guns came out…a totally fraudulent election that was so extreme, so comprehensive, so well planned and executed by both foreign and domestic enemies, it caught everyone flat-footed, even the Supreme Court that decided to do nothing.
The Left has proven they will do anything for power. The country now is in a free-fall from where it was just months ago.
You now lean heavily on disarming the people.
You can’t have an armed citizenry when they find out what’s in store for them. By coincidence (if you believe in that sort of thing) we have a rash of mass murders in the news, in Democrat cities, of course. Push hard now for gun control.
The cities you created are now the murder and poverty capitals of America, but they are useful, proof that America and capitalism doesn’t work. You must have patience, destroying a culture takes time, but you must work more quickly now, people are beginning to wake up.
The Leninist strategy of revolution calls for a two-prong approach.
The Leninist strategy of revolution calls for a two-prong approach. One is a non-violent phase followed by a violent phase. We are at the beginning of the violent phase.
When you think you have enough of the indoctrinated in government, education, big business, the media and entertainment, even in the churches and synagogues, it’s time to go from persuasion to heavy-handed tactics…the violent stage. You’ve given up on much of the middle-class and now depend on the indoctrinated and the 30+ million illegal aliens you imported who are not accustomed to a representative democracy. If the country shows signs of disagreement, threaten riots.
At this point, people who are not buying are considered insurrectionists, enemies of the state.
At this stage the political system is so corrupt it begins to putrefy. You hide behind thousands of troops that never leave DC in spite of the promises to the contrary. You look more like a third-world country every day, using strong-arm, military tactics to hold on to power.
You know your grip is tenuous. You wonder if there are enough people living in fear that will support your coup. These people are not too bright.
They have little knowledge and virtue, making themselves easy targets for tyrants.
I sense an awakening. Millions of people, if not fully awake, have their collective heads off the pillow. At least in the red states, people are beginning to fight back, passing counter legislation, claiming their 10th Amendment, states’ rights. At least a dozen states are active in that pursuit.
Make no mistake, there is a Communist revolution taking place in America.
The Left is determined and well financed. People had better be aware. Organize and prepare to defend the homeland. We have spent trillions on defense from external attacks, but almost nothing to defend us from attacks from within.
Whether they call it Socialism or Democratic Socialism, it is all the same with the same goal…Communism.
