ARIZONA DEMOCRAT THE LATEST (D) TO BE CONVICTED AND SENTENCED TO PRISON FOR CHILD MOLESTATION. Democrats, can you please leave children alone?

LATEST CORPORATE MEDIA HOAX – PRETENDING TRUMP INTIMIDATED A WITNESS – GETS EXPOSED AS A LIE IN RECORD TIME. Over and over again these lies get shot down, but the slobbering psychopaths who hate Trump fall for them every single time. They are the most ignorant, uninformed and emotionally unstable people I’ve ever encountered. If Trump was accused of leading an invasion from Mars, those imbeciles would believe it.

GREITENS CALLS OUT HOW THE PARTISAN LAWFARE AGAINST OPPOSITION LEADER TRUMP IS A WAR ON THE LEGAL SYSTEM ITSELF.

len kabasinskiLen Kabasinski, the indie filmmaker behind such productions as Curse of the Wolf, Pact of Vengeance, Ninja: Prophecy of Death and many more, was kind enough to drop by Balladeer’s Blog and add his thoughts about the late Leo Fong.

Fong worked with Kabasinski on a few films and Len’s fond remarks about his late fellow action star reinforce what a gem Leo Fong was and what a gracious man Len Kabasinski is. Click HERE.

biden plutocratJOE BIDEN: DISASTER UPON DISASTER

DEMOCRATS VS THE REST OF US: JULY 22nd.

FORMER TRUMP HATER DISCOVERS THE TRUTH AND BEGINS SINGING HIS PRAISES.

BIDEN, CUBA AND CHINA’S REGIMES CONTINUE SUPPRESSING DISSENT.

aaaaaa

NO DEMOCRAT WOULD ALLOW THIS SIGN IN A CLASSROOM OR OFFICE.

DEMOCRAT UGLINESS IN ITS MANY FORMS.

Some excerpts: “AT PRESENT, DEMOCRATS PUSH DIVISIVENESS EVERYWHERE – Democrats, despite the fact that their political party was behind so many atrocities in America’s past, presume to lecture the rest of us. Hell, the senile and corrupt Joe Biden eulogized an actual Ku Klux Klan official, fellow Democrat Senator Robert Byrd. Biden’s 1994 legislation has long been called out for its draconian punishments which fell mostly on African-Americans.

“Joe Biden and his son Hunter have been caught repeatedly in racist comments and using racial slurs, yet the pathetic Biden tries lecturing THE REST OF US about “racism” and “White Supremacy.” You know … the kind of White Supremacy pushed by the Ku Klux Klan, founded by Democrats and which Biden’s eulogized buddy Robert Byrd held a leadership position in.

“It is DEMOCRATS who keep pushing “transition” drugs on increasingly young children, yet too many people shy away from pointing this out.

It is DEMOCRATS who insist just about everything makes them feel “unsafe”. Continue reading

APRIL 26th ROUNDUP OF NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS

Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog presents another look at current events from Joe Biden’s corporate fascist kleptocracy, where he and his regime victimize the poor and the working class. 

hamas to bidenDEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLETS CALLED OUT FOR IGNORING THE FACT THAT HAMAS STILL HOLDS AMERICAN HOSTAGES. All just to try protecting callous, uncaring and catastrophic Joe Biden.

BIDEN’S INFLATION ACCELERATES WHILE GDP SLOWS, CAUSING MORE STAGFLATION. But Joe Biden and his fellow one percenters are doing just fine.

ANOTHER OF BIDEN’S ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ASSAULTS MULTIPLE WOMEN, THIS TIME IN MICHIGAN.

mandela and trumpDEMOCRAT FASCISTS STILL REFUSING TO GIVE TRUMP THE RIGHT TO MOUNT A DEFENSE, PROVING ONCE AGAIN THAT THESE ARE JUST POLITICAL SHOW TRIALS

TRUMP PROSECUTORS HAPLESSLY PROVE THEIR OWN WITNESS IS A LIAR WHO FAKED EVIDENCE. But let’s face it, the judge and company decided Trump was guilty long ago.

biden is not legitDEMOCRATS AT GOOGLE VOW TO ONCE AGAIN BLOCK NEWS UNFAVORABLE TO BIDEN LIKE THEY DID IN 2020. And the Hunter Biden laptop revelations – which Big Tech pretended were “misinformation” – were just the tip of the iceberg. 

*** ATLANTIC CITY DEMOCRAT ARRESTED AND CHARGED WITH ELECTION FRAUD. But no matter how many times this type of thing happens every year, Democrats pretend it doesn’t.

JOHNSON CALLS OUT THE BIDEN REGIME’S COORDINATED LAWFARE AGAINST OPPOSITION LEADER DONALD TRUMP. More HERE.

NEW YORK UNION LEADER: “MY MEMBERS SUPPORT TRUMP BY THREE TO ONE.” More HERE. And HERE. Union leadership sold out to corporate interests long ago, but the rank-and-file members love Trump. Trump was the greatest president for the working class and the poor during my lifetime.

L’INFERNO (1911) SILENT MOVIE

infernoL’INFERNO (1911) – This 71-minute movie was an adaptation of Dante’s epic poem Inferno, one-third of his Divine Comedy along with Purgatorio and Paradiso. It was also Italy’s first feature-length film, beating Cabiria to theaters by three years.   

Three directors collaborated on this production – Francesco Bertolini, Giuseppe de Liguoro and Adolfo Padovan. Obviously, L’Inferno is a very condensed version of Dante’s work but the special effects are impressive for the time period.

Even if I wasn’t a silent film geek aspects of this movie would have stood out to me. First, it was made in Italy toward the end of the Belle Epoch, lending it a certain poignance as the global conflict was approaching an oblivious world. 

dante and virgilSecond, L’Inferno has a certain grandeur from being filmed in Italy itself, the home of Dante Alighieri and his guide through Hell, Virgil. And third, nearly all of the footage set in the realm of the damned was filmed amid extinct and semi-extinct volcanoes in Italy, adding immeasurably to the infernal atmosphere.  Continue reading

Time for another current events roundup by Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog.

biden bloodBIDEN REGIME HANDS OVER ONE HUNDRED TEN MILLION DOLLAR MILITARY BASE TO THE JUNTA IN NIGER – WHICH THEN TURNS IT OVER TO PUTIN’S RUSSIA. Joe Biden is a disaster all day every day and this action further demonstrates the idiocy of people who pretend Trump is pro-Putin.

OBAMA SENIOR POLICY ADVISOR ARRESTED FOR CHILD SEX CRIMES. Democrats, can you please leave children alone?

SCATHING PIECE TITLED “ILLEGAL ALIENS UNDERSTAND NONE OF THE RULES APPLY TO THEM“. A better title would have pointed out how none of the LAWS apply to them.

DEMOCRAT STATE SENATOR ARRESTED FOR FIRST-DEGREE BURGLARY. Democrats’ latest innovation – branching out from white-collar crime to a more hands-on approach.

JUNE 2021: LOOKING BACK

FOR PART ONE (2016) OF THIS RETROSPECTIVE FROM INDEPENDENT VOTER SITE BALLADEER’S BLOG CLICK HERE.

biden the fascistTHE PEOPLE VS JOE BIDEN. And the long list of abuses by this grotesque little man named Biden has grown considerably since this June of 2021 blog post.

JOE BIDEN CLOSES THE OFFICE WHICH TRUMP HAD ESTABLISHED TO HELP THE VICTIMS OF ADDITIONAL CRIMES BY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. The early months of the Biden Regime’s policy “Illegal immigrants uber alles!” 

populismESTABLISHMENT FEAR OF POPULISM. From Eugene Debs to Donald Trump, America’s political establishment really hates it when the people push back on their misrule.

democrats vote fraudOVERSEAS READERS REQUESTED CLARIFICATION OF THE ISSUES OVER THE TAINTED AND CORRUPT 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. I went into great detail and also looked at America’s tainted and corrupt 1876 and 2000 presidential elections as well. Joe Biden, George W. Bush and Rutherford B. Hayes were “selected, not elected.” Too many Americans pretend “it can’t happen here.” Input from others HERE. 

… AND YET ANOTHER ITEM THAT TRUMP WAS ACCUSED OF “LYING” ABOUT HAS ENDED WITH HIM BEING PROVEN RIGHT. And this pattern has continued to repeat itself to this very day as the country’s corrupt political establishment continues to persecute him. Continue reading

APRIL NINETEENTH ROUNDUP OF NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS

political persecution of trumpFrom the corporate fascist kleptocracy run by career criminal Joe Biden comes another current events roundup by Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog. And remember, Biden continues to flout a Supreme Court ruling against him.

tim scottSENATOR TIM SCOTT BLASTS THE KANGAROO TRIALS AND COURTROOM TRAVESTIES AGAINST OPPOSITION LEADER DONALD TRUMP. He also cites how the obvious bias of the judges has helped drive people to Trump. More HERE.

JUDGE IN THE LATEST SHAM TRIAL OF TRUMP IN NEW YORK TAGGED AS A JOE BIDEN DONOR. An honest judge would have recused themselves, but this hack prefers to keep Biden’s opponent Trump off the campaign trail and in a courtroom. He refuses to even let Trump attend his son’s graduation.

        As I’ve often mentioned, America’s political establishment is a cesspool of corruption, and its members will not let the voters select their own candidates and they don’t care how blatant they have to be about it.

INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND OFFICIAL JOINS THOSE POINTING OUT THAT JOE BIDEN’S OPEN-BORDER POLICY HURTS AMERICAN CITIZENS’ WAGES. But Joe and his fellow one percenters are doing just fine.

the system is evilBIDEN REGIME SURRENDERS TO REASON AND REINSTATES TRUMP’S SANCTIONS. Childishly opposing every action taken by Trump just because it was taken by him has wasted so much time, energy and money. Anti-Trump loons need to grow up.  

HARLEM AUDIENCE CHEERS ON DE FACTO THIRD PARTY PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP DURING A PERSONAL APPEARANCE. Democrat media outlets will still tell you to ignore the evidence of your own eyes and instead listen to their demonization of Trump.

NEW YORK DEMOCRAT COUNCIL MEMBER ARRESTED AND CHARGED WITH FAKING SIGNATURES OF DEAD PEOPLE ON ELECTION PETITION. That’s Democrats – bringing fraud to every aspect of elections, both general and primary!

VOTERS OF COLOR IN PENNSYLVANIA MOCK BIDEN WITH SIGNS SAYING “DONALD TRUMP IS WHO WE WANT.” Video HERE and HERE. “We need Trump back.”

TRANSGRESS WITH ME: APRIL 18th

orwell on the party and truthIt’s been a while, so here’s Balladeer’s Blog’s latest installment of Transgress with Me. As usual, it’s only for the courageous and mixes old with new.  As I’ve often mentioned in the past, I used to be a Democrat before their increasing intolerance and fascism drove me to leave the party and become an Independent Voter.

*** Increasingly deranged Democrats sanctimoniously pretend they are THE moral models for everyone else, yet that attitude is what they used to bash the religious right for.

*** PEOPLE WITH CLOSED MINDS MISTAKE SUCCESSFUL CENSORSHIP FOR “BEING IN THE RIGHT.” 

*** People who say that teaching is a political act should never be trusted with authority over vulnerable young minds.

*** Reasonable people believe that voters of color are capable of making up their own minds about which political candidates they support, but Democrat fascists insist any voters of color who don’t support their party are “race traitors” and harass them even to the point of violence.

*** JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS COUNTER-INTUITIVE IT DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY MEAN IT IS “DEEP” OR “INTELLECTUAL.”

freedom of expression is a human right*** Authoritarian Democrats are only content in environments where they have a captive audience, like in schools or wherever they can use the full force of the government or other higher “authorities” to impose silence on those who disagree with them.

*** Democrats are neither liberal nor progressive and are interested only in furthering the interests of The Party. 

*** THE SUPPOSEDLY “INTOLERANT” DEAD WHITE MALES OF THE PAST RECOGNIZED WHAT THE FASCISTIC POLITICAL LEFT DENIES – THAT FUTURE GENERATIONS SHOULD HAVE THE FREEDOM TO AMEND THE LAWS ACCORDING TO EVOLVING PHILOSOPHIES AND ATTITUDES. INSTEAD THE LEFT INSISTS THEY HAVE “THE ONE TRUE WORLD VIEW” AND THAT THEIR NARROW-MINDED VALUES ARE ENTIRELY AND ETERNALLY “RIGHT.” NOW AND FOREVER. 

*** Democrats demonize and dehumanize anyone who does not support their every opinion, yet they pretend to be models of “tolerance”. Continue reading

SARAH BERNHARDT: HER SILENT FILMS

Here are the silent films of the iconic and world-famous actress Sarah Bernhardt. This revered stage thespian was born in 1844 and died in 1923. She was practically royalty when she deigned to appear in a few silent films.   

duel in hamletLE DUEL D’HAMLET (1900) – In this roughly 2-minute short, the 56-year-old Bernhardt gave cinema a gender-flipped Hamlet as she fenced with Pierre Magnier as Laertes in the climactic duel.

“The Divine Sarah” as she came to be called, was spryer and more athletic than women half her age. This brief moment of history was the first time ANY scene from Hamlet had been presented on film. 

sarah in toscaTOSCA (1908, 1912) – Bernhardt portrayed Floria Tosca in this adaptation of the Puccini opera. (Yes, it’s a silent movie version of an opera.) The entire story was condensed into just 40 minutes and Sarah was so appalled with the production that she insisted that it not be released and, in fact, wanted it destroyed!

Luckily for cinema history, it was merely shelved for 4 years and wound up getting released to cash in on the success that Sarah’s silent movie about Queen Elizabeth the First was enjoying in 1912. Continue reading
