G Barr: Democrats Are Now the “Rousseauian Revolutionary Party That Believes in Tearing Down the System”

US Attorney General Bill Barr slammed the Democrat party for embracing political violence in a one-on-one interview with Fox News host and constitutional scholar Mark Levin.

Barr said the Democrats are now the “Rousseauian Revolutionary Party that believes in tearing down the system.”

“They’re not interested in compromise. They’re not interested in [a] dialectic exchange of views. They’re interested in total victory…It’s a substitute for religion,” he said.

Barr said many of the Democrat lawmakers are cowards for not calling out Antifa violence

Illinois School: ‘Black and Brown students’ will get priority placement for in-person instruction

Evanston is a city in the Chicagoland area. It is located in Cook County, Illinois, situated on the Chicago North Shore along Lake Michigan.

On July 22, School District 65 announced that it plans to reopen the schools for in-person instruction on Sept. 29, assuming it is safe to do so. At that time, the District provided general guidance on the safety precautions it plans to take, and it provided additional details in a report, “Reimagining Education, A Guide to the 2020-2021 School Year,” which it posted the next day. The District provided still more information in a 90-minute online town hall session at which administrators provided answers to pre-submitted questions on July 29.

“students receiving free or reduced lunch, Black and Brown students, students who received an I [Incomplete] or less than 50% on their report cards, emerging bilinguals, and students with IEPs…”

Latarsha Green, Deputy Superintendent, School District 65

Priority for In-Class Learning

Under applicable guidelines, the District said the maximum number of students allowed in each building are as follows: JEH 172; Chute 466, Dawes 354, Dewey 359, Haven 556, King Arts 388, Kingsley 275, Lincoln 486, Lincolnwood 291, Nichols 418, Oakton 335, Orrington 303, Park 181, Bessie Rhodes 343, Walker 276, Washington 416, and Willard 297.

Historically, the enrollment at each school significantly exceeds these numbers.

The second factor that may impact enrollment in on-site learning is the number of teachers who are willing to teach on site, due to concerns about being infected by COVID-19. Some teachers may have a concern based on their own risk factors or of people in their household. At this point it appears that the District is honoring teachers’ decisions on whether to teach on-site or not.

Dr. Horton said the District is not setting teachers up to say, “You must come back.”

Latarsha Green, Deputy Superintendent, said that one of the District’s task forces considered what the District should do in the event more students applied to take on-site learning than there were available slots. She said the task force and administrators decided to give the following categories of students a priority: “students receiving free or reduced lunch, Black and Brown students, students who received an I [Incomplete] or less than 50% on their report cards, emerging bilinguals, and students with IEPs. There are also other categories in relation to students who are not performing according to reading or math grade-level expectations, and students with no comorbidity factors.”

Mark Levin: Dems want mail-in voting 'extended' so even if Trump 'wins they can call him a fake president'

Levin says Democrats are 'suddenly' interested in mail-in voting to 'collapse' and 'overwhelm' the system

Democrats want mail-in voting “extended” so even if Trump wins the 2020 election “they can call him a fake president,” Mark Levin, host of “Life, Liberty & Levin,” said on Sunday morning.

Levin pointed out on “Fox & Friends Weekend” on Sunday that President Trump “never said he wouldn’t leave office.”

“The president said I got to see what happens on Election Day because all of us see what’s going on,” he continued. “The states are incapable of doing 100 million potentially or 80 million or 60 million people with mail-in voting.”

“We’ve never seen this before,” he noted.

Levin was referencing an interview President Trump did with "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace last month where he warned that mail-in voting would “rig the election.”

During the interview, Wallace asked Trump whether the president would accept the results of the presidential election in November, and asked whether the president was a “good loser.”

“I’m not a good loser. I don’t like to lose. I don’t lose too often. I don’t like to lose,” Trump said. “You don’t know until you see. It depends. I think mail-in voting is going to rig the election, I really do.”

The president and Republicans have been warning about possible voter fraud connected to mail-in voting for months, while Democrats and the media have often pointed to a lack of evidence that mail-in voting, and absentee voting, lead to voter fraud.

On Sunday, Levin brought up Nevada’s expanded mail-in voting for the upcoming election.

The Trump campaign and the Republican state and national committees filed a lawsuit against Nevada, claiming Assembly Bill 4, which would allow ballots to be mailed to all registered voters in the state, will undermine the election’s “integrity,” FOX 5 in Las Vegas reported.

Gov. Steve Sisolak, a Democrat, signed the bill last week after it passed the state legislature along party lines, the Nevada Independent reported.

KILLER FAUCI: Even Developing Nations Algeria, India, Indonesia, Cuba That Used HCQ Fared Better than US in Treating Coronavirus — By an Average of 79% Better!

The liberal mainstream media can’t hide this truth from the public forever.

The latest international testing of hydroxychloroquine treatment of coronavirus shows countries that had early use of the drug had a 79% lower mortality rate than countries that banned the use of the safe malaria drug.

This means that Dr. Fauci, Dr. Birx, the CDC, the liberal fake news media and the tech giants have been pushing a lie that has had deadly consequences!

America has lost (reportedly) over 150,000 lives.

That could have been lowered by possibly 80% if HCQ use would have been promoted in the US!

We are talking over 100,000 American lives could have been saved!

'Spiritual Health Is Essential': Godspeak Church Defies Restraining Order, No Police in Sight

On Sunday, Godspeak Calvary Chapel and Pastor Rob McCoy held services, violating a temporary restraining order enforcing Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D-Calif.) ban on in-person gatherings. The church reportedly hit capacity and had to leave some parishioners outside. Others came to support the church’s worship while a few pro-lockdown protesters gathered to face the crowd. As observers noted there were no police in sight to enforce the restraining order, a disgruntled woman took to social media to tattle on the church to the local sheriff.

“Here outside Godspeak church this morning in Newbury Park, where the parking lot is filling up fast. Despite a temporary restraining order being put in place Friday, hundreds are showing up this morning for services. Services are planned for 9, 11 and 1,” Kyle Jorrey, editor at the Thousand Oaks Acorn, tweeted with a video of parishioners arriving.

A large group of church supporters arrived with signs reading, “Church: More Essential Than Marijuana Shops and Abortion Clinics,” “Spiritual Health Is Essential,” “Where The Spirit Of The Lord Is, There Is Freedom,” and “Free California.” In a similar case involving Grace Community Church Pastor John MacArthur, Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund lawyer Charles LiMandri noted that Gov. Newsom has supported Black Lives Matter protesters and is not extending the same lockdown rules he applies on churches to marijuana dispensaries, retail outlets, and abortion clinics.

Some claimed that “thousands” came out to support religious liberty, although the crowd does not seem that large.

A small group of pro-lockdown protesters also arrived. They held signs reading, “God Can Hear You At Home, Don’t Be Free-Dumb,” “Jesus Loves You, Rob McCoy Loves Himself,” and “This Church Endangers Us All.”

A small scuffle broke out between the pro-church protesters and the pro-lockdown protesters.

French Passengers Sue Costa Cruises Over Virus Ship Ordeal

Around 850 French passengers who were onboard a coronavirus-riddled cruise ship that was turned away from numerous ports in March have filed a collective suit in Paris with 180 complaints, including manslaughter, against Costa Cruises, their lawyer said Sunday.

The class action, which includes complaints from the families of three passengers who died of COVID-19, accuses the Italy-based cruise giant of negligence and various faults during their trip on the Costa Magica.

From March 6 to 13 the ship was refused to dock in most of the Caribbean islands it visited, including Trinidad and Tobago, Grenada, Barbados and Saint Lucia.

In the absence of stopovers, the crew encouraged the passengers to use the ship's shops, spas, restaurants and casino without sufficiently putting health measures in place or informing them there were suspected infections onboard the complainants said in their suit.

"It was meant to be a dream cruise, but it ended in an ordeal," he said.

Costa Cruises, which is part of the Carnival group, has suspended its trips worldwide until August 15 due to the pandemic.

Shifting Consumer Shopping Trends Fueling Contactless Payment, AI-Driven Stores

Ecommerce sales for June were up more than 76% from last year

63% of consumers say they would shift their patronage to stores taht embrace contactless payment options

Retail automation company Prexevia has secured $1.18 million in venture capital to expand its AI-driven smart store concept throughout Europe

With the fear of contracting the coronavirus pervading most aspects of daily life, consumers are embracing contactless systems for transactions and spurring the growth of artificial intelligence-driven smart stores.

Ecommerce had been growing steadily before the pandemic hit, and the contagion only accelerated the trend away from brick-and-mortar operations. Total online sales reached $73.2 billion in June, up 76.2% from one year ago, Adobe Analytics reported.

Coresight Research said the pandemic has forced retailers to innovate, leveraging technology to create a more efficient supply chain and generate growth. At the same time, it has become necessary to reduce contact between employees and consumers, forcing retailers to embrace curbside pickup, cashier-less stores, contactless payment and vending machines.

“The coronavirus pandemic has significantly impacted the ways in which consumers engage in retail, and we expect demand for contact-light shopping to become the new norm,” Coresight said.

Visa reported last week 78% of consumers have changed the way they pay, and 63% say they would switch to businesses that offer contactless payment options.

“Consumers are putting COVID-19 safety measures at the top of their shopping lists and rewarding businesses that do the same,” Suzan Kereere, global head of merchant sales and acquiring for Visa, said in a press release.

“Historically, we see behavior change at the point of sale as a gradual shift over time. But, COVID-19 has created an immediate need for safer, more efficient shopping experiences both on and offline and consumers are responding by rapidly migrating to digital commerce. We want small businesses to know that Visa is here to help them navigate these new consumer needs and expectations, which will make their businesses stronger now and in the long run.”

Retail automation company Prexevia has taken the concept even further with AI-driven smart stores that can sanitize themselves when they detect no people present. Prexevia secured $1.18 million in venture capital from Wolf Capital, Open Circle Capital, Practica Capital and several angels to expand its concept throughout Europe. Prexevia opened its first smart store last summer in Vilnius, Lithuania.

“Contactless technologies have become essential in the world of the pandemic, as they minimize unnecessary physical interaction, thus reducing the potential exposure to contagious diseases,” the company said in a press release, also pointing out that long lines at checkout cost retailers money.

Walmart began testing a cashier-less store in Fayetteville, Arkansas, this summer, coupling self-checkout with its Walmart Pay touch-free payment system. Amazon took the plunge in February.

Self-aware much? CNN's Stelter says right-wing media outlets exist 'to tear down Joe Biden,' sees nothing like it on the left

CNN host Brian Stelter has attempted to give viewers what he called "a reality check about the alternative reality" of right-wing media, which he said exists to tear down Democrat Joe Biden, failing to see any irony in the claim.

"Let's go on a trip together to a totally alternative universe," Stelter said on his Sunday show. "You never hear what's happening there unless you tune into rightwing talk radio. But you need to know what they are saying because they're the most popular, the most powerful talkers in the whole country."

After warning viewers of the offensive and "mind-boggling" things they were about to hear, Stelter proceeded to show examples of how Fox News and conservative radio hosts like Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro have suggested that Biden has deteriorated mentally.

Yet even some Democrats, including former presidential candidates Julian Castro and Cory Booker, have also raised questions about Biden's cognitive fitness. Levin, however, resorted to some hyperbole, quipping that Biden needs to be in a nursing home and that he's an "invalid."

Pointing to a clip of Biden riding a bicycle as proof of his fitness to be president, Stelter said, "I'm not here to say he's perfect. He screwed up a couple of times in an interview with minority journalists . . ., but I am here to say, Joe Biden is not an invalid."

Stelter told his panel of guests that conservative media's attacks on Democrats are getting more severe and asked, "When you see entire media companies essentially exist to tear down Joe Biden, is there an equivalent to that on the left tearing down Trump?"

Apparently ignoring the mainstream media's relentless attacks on Trump, panelist Errin Haines said, "There really isn't. It's really a diet of this type of information that a lot of these voters are getting." She said many Americans are hearing only rightwing media and the Trump campaign's social media programming.

"If that's all they're getting, to the exclusion of kind of the more traditional legacy media, then it really is no surprise what their understanding is of this country and of our politics," said Haines, editor-at-large for The 19th, a website that covers "the intersection of gender, politics and policy."

Stelter offered no pushback to the notion that mainstream "traditional legacy" media is balanced, and he expounded on Haines' point about the Trump campaign's efforts on social media, saying it created "an even safer space than Fox News" for his supporters.

Twitter users were quick to mock the CNN host's suggestion that there is no equivalent to rightwing bashing of Biden. "I'm convinced this is an SNL skit," one person wrote, while another said: "Vampires cast no reflection."

One tweeter said in reply to Stelter's question, "Let's see: CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC . . . . Are we done yet?"

Sen. Ron Johnson: Suppressing Breitbart News Is Part of Google’s Electioneering for Democrats

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) identified Google’s suppression of Breitbart News within its search engine as an example of the technology company’s left-wing political agenda to assist the Democrat Party, offering his remarks on Friday’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Tonight with host Jerome Hudson.

Johnson recalled Google’s near-complete removal of Breitbart News from its search results.

Google manipulates search results for those “investigating politics,” Johnson said. “They’ll send you to everything positive about Joe Biden and everything negative about Donald Trump.”

“[Google’s] manipulation can be powerful,” Johnson added, “and then, of course, what they’re doing with other search results, which is why Breitbart’s results are down so low. It’s obvious that they have political bias.”

Johnson wrote of Google’s suppression of Breitbart News in a letter he co-authored with Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) to Google CEO Sundar Pichai on Thursday regarding:

Conservative outlets have continued to face diminished search results n Google. Breitbart News’ editor-in-chief Alex Marlow said during an interview last week that Google was limiting exposure of Breitbart news in Google searches, so much s that Breitbart’s visibility index is down 99.7% since 2016 and overall their Google traffic is down nearly two-thirds.

Johnson and Lee requested “assurances” from Pichai that Google would “not allow any sort of electioneering or use of politically-biased algorithms on its platform” given the company’s power over the global flow of information.

Google is “wielding such a massive ability to show people information or not show people information,” Johnson stated.

Pichai’s denial of Google’s political shaping of its services is “laughable,” Johnson determined.

Johnson warned, “It should concern all of us [that Google is] completely being partisan and supporting Democrats, and it’s scary.”
