Boonsboro, MD: Black Lives Matter and Leftists’ Dirty Tricks

Earlier this year Dan’s Restaurant and Taphouse became the central organizing location for Black Lives Matter in Washington County, Maryland.

Update below!

Boonsboro, Maryland is a small rural town in conservative Western Maryland. It is near where I live and for the last 35 years I’ve visited friends there, gone to doctor’s appointments there and shopped in its small shopping plaza. It is a town where one could live a peaceful life—until now.

….Until a few obviously Leftwing activists associated with internationally famous and now wealthy author Nora Roberts (whose birth name was Eleanor Marie Robertson), began a campaign in support of Black Lives Matter.

Charlotte Aufdem-Brinke told interviewer Bernadette Wagner that she wanted to see “progressive change come to Washington County” saying she was modeling for her children. Watch the whole interview beginning at the 22:40 mark here: https://primetime4women.com/show-10-in-season-2-with-marie-hawse-and-charlotte-aufdem-brinke/

In June, after George Floyd’s death in Minnesota, Roberts’ daughter-in-law, a co-owner of Dan’s  Restaurant & Taphouse, Charlotte Aufdem-Brinke and the restaurant became the central location for Black Lives Matter organizing.

(Aufdem-Brinke is Nora Roberts’ first married name. Charlotte’s present marital status to her son Dan is not clear and doesn’t matter.)

Fine and dandy, Ms. Aufdem-Brinke is free to voice her opinions, organize for Progressive causes, and model her political views for her children.

However, it is what happened next that has many in the community outraged.

She apparently was a lead organizer behind a billboard that was placed prominently in town funded via a GoFundMe account where Aufdem-Brinke is the first donor listed ($500).

(The image below is the ‘corrected’ second billboard as the first one credited “the people of Boonsboro” for paying for the billboard.)

 

If you want to read the Battle of the Billboards by controversial local agitator Ryan Miner, see it here  but just know that he calls local, long-time residents of the community “hayseeds,” and “Boonsboro’s finest happy-go-lucky hubcap shiners.”

Calling names is a universal trait it seems for Progressives pushing their agenda.

By the way, Miner was not always on the Left, but that is a story for another time.

This is what you really need to know—Progressive Dems cheat (duh!)!

Del. Parrott is a decent and honorable man, no wonder he would be surprised someone would play this dirty.

Aufdem-Brinke and fellow Progressives can put up all the billboards they desire, but somehow these Leftists who “model for their kids whose hearts are so pure” can’t seem to not cheat  as we learned in October when it was discovered that someone affiliated with Black Lives Matter and Nora Roberts’ daughter-in-law, listed well-known local conservative Republicans as donors to the billboard fundraising campaign including 2020 Republican Congressional candidate Neil Parrott founder of the Hagerstown Tea Party.

From the Herald Mail less than two weeks before the November election:

Several Washington County Republicans’ names falsely listed as supporting BLM fundraiser

Several prominent Washington County Republicans say they have been falsely associated with donating to a Black Lives Matter fundraiser.

Washington County Republican Chair Jerry DeWolf sent an email Thursday morning to Washington County Sheriff Doug Mullendore stating he and several others were fraudulently listed as donors on a GoFundMe fundraiser to put up a Black Live Matter billboard near Boonsboro. He requested the sheriff’s office begin an investigation into the fundraiser organizers and “others who may have participated in this fraud.”

The email also was sent to The Herald-Mail, Maryland Republican Party Chair Dirk Haire and Maryland Republican Party Executive Director Corine Frank.

In DeWolf’s email, he said he assumed the act was a “politically motivated attack designed to harass and intimidate,” and he would “personally be interested in pressing the maximum charges available should (the sheriff’s) office find it warranted to do so.”

Of course, the sheriff found nothing criminal. Didn’t this raise identity fraud legal questions?  (We have a weak sheriff here in Washington County.)

Del. Neil Parrott, R-Washington, who is a candidate to represent Maryland’s 6th Congressional District in the U.S. House, was listed as donating $50. He said Friday the donation was not made by him. He said he was made aware of the donation in his name and was surprised that someone would do that.

We must get it through our heads that playing dirty, cheating and lying is how the Left plays this game!  The stolen 2020 Presidential election is a prime example of how far they will go.

Others listed as donors have confirmed the legitimacy of their donations, such as Charlotte Aufdem-Brinke, co-owner of Dan’s Restaurant & Taphouse. Aufdem-Brinke, who was the first donor listed, said Thursday that the donation for $500 was legitimate.***

Aufdem-Brinke said she liked the fundraiser’s message, saying it aligned with the Taphouse’s stance on inclusivity and ending a “hateful mindset.”

More here.

Message to local readers:  No “hayseeds,” as Aufdem-Brinke’s pal Ryan Miner calls you, should spend a single dime at Dan’s Restaurant & Taphouse in Boonsboro, Maryland. 

Message to national readers:  GoFundMe can easily be manipulated by devious Dems who appear to have no moral compass and who obviously believe that the ends justify the means.

***See the GoFundMe account for the Boonsboro Black Lives Matter billboard and see who the legitimate donors are (after the Republicans were able to remove their names).  How many are actually from Boonsboro?

I’ve created a whole new category here at Frauds & Crooks that I am calling Leftists’ Dirty Tricks.  It appears I will need it going forward.

Update!

Is this what the good folks of Boonsboro are supporting.  This happened in Washington DC yesterday:

Democrat House Quietly Paid Off Pakistani IT Worker at Center of 2016/2017 Investigation

Remember this guy?  He and his family members worked for the House of Representatives doing who knows what with vital US secrets.

Well, the Democrats have quietly paid him off for his pain and suffering at the hands of the “right-wing media.” (Ha! Ha!)

California AG Xavier Becerra at center of circle of questionable characters and circumstances.  Have they found Seth Rich’s killer yet? Just wondering. https://patch.com/california/orange-county/california-attorney-general-seeks-postpone-imran-trial

 

From Frontpage magazine (hat tip: Judy):

Democrats Pay Off Intrusive IT Man Imran Awan

And Biden taps Awan’s collaborator Xavier Becerra for HHS boss.

“Congress Pays $850,000 to Muslim Aides Targeted in Inquiry Stoked by Trump,” reads the November 25 New York Times headline. According to the story, the previously unreported settlement is one of the largest to resolve discrimination or harassment claims, in this case by people who “lost their jobs and endured harassment in part because of their Muslim faith and South Asian origins.”

Reporters Noam Scheiber and Nicholas Fandos give no date for settlement and do not explain why it was “previously unreported.” Congress reportedly made the payment but the only House member quoted is Florida Democrat Ted Deutch, a leading figure in Democrats’ charge that candidate Donald Trump was guilty of collusion with Russia and a vocal proponent of impeaching President Trump.

“It is tragic and outrageous the way right-wing media and Republicans all the way up to President Trump attempted to destroy the lives of an immigrant Muslim-American family based on scurrilous allegations,” Deutch told Sheiber and Fandos. As they explain, the settlement was also “an attempt to bring a close to a convoluted saga that led to one of the most durable — and misleading — story lines of the Trump era.”

What started as “a relatively ordinary House inquiry into procurement irregularities by Imran Awan, three members of his family and a friend, who had a bustling practice providing members of Congress with technology support, was twisted into lurid accusations of hacking government information.” That side of the story could use more detail.

Of all the IT people in all the IT firms in all the world, House Democrats thought Imran Awan was best man for the job. Sometimes working from his native Pakistan, Awan and his family team accessed the computers of some 40 Democrats, including those on the intelligence and foreign affairs committees. Without their consent Awan and his team stashed the Democrats’ data on a server controlled by Xavier Becerra, chair of the House Democratic Caucus.

Capitol Police wanted a copy of the server but the one Awan produced turned out to be a fake. In February, 2017, Awan and his team got booted off the House computer network, but Becerra had already fled to California where Gov. Jerry Brown made him state attorney general. Becerra had nothing to say about Awan’s IT intrigue, and he got additional protection from federal judge Tanya S. Chutkan.

Continue reading.  And, see my previous post on the judge and this case.

Interesting tidbit here:  Shahid Imran Awan got here by ‘winning’ the green card lottery another immigration scam on the American people.

I wonder if there is more information about this case that the President might see fit to declassify?  With the public no longer trusting the FBI/DOJ you never know what they might be hiding.

Now for your daily chuckle!

I have been itching for an opportunity to post the video of bumbling Biden announcing a big job for Becerra.  Listen to him completely butcher the name and not even know that the Department of Health, Education and….. hasn’t existed since 1979!

It really is pathetic how the crooked Dems used this mentally incompetent man.

LOL! Wouldn’t you like to know what Queen Kamala is saying behind that mask!

I bet it goes like this: ‘Keep it up Joe and I will be President before you spend one night in the White House!’

Everyone is Leaving Facebook and Twitter, what about you?

Editor: Don’t miss my update to yesterday’s report on the historic event in Washington, DC  on Saturday!

The stories are everywhere and each of you will have to make up your mind sooner or later.  I don’t have the energy this morning to go into all the ins and outs of what is going on with this social media revolution that began long before the 2020 Election was fully underway.

As for me, I am considering leaving both platforms for one major reason, in addition to the desire to no longer participate in building the anti-Trump Zuckerberg and Dorsey family fortunes, and that is that any social media account requires attention to followers daily and I just can’t do that and haven’t been for some time because I want to enjoy living for some portion of each day!.

I was going to apologize again today for being so remiss in responding to everyone’s comments etc. at my e-mail accounts and at Facebook so when many of you in recent days have sent stories (here is one) about the big moves to Parler, I figured it was time to apologize again for my lack of attention.

I will let you know what I decide to do.

That said, I am still using Twitter to find out a lot of what is going on even as I have nothing earthshattering to add myself.

Here is a tweet I pinned to my account yesterday that I am going back to from time to time to laugh and cheer up.

To set the stage an obviously black pro-Trump supporter is holding a flag as a white elitist motorist drives up and either attempts to grab the flag or otherwise does something aggressive.

“All that HATE!!!!”

So there is the value of Twitter for me!

P.S.  Our cable guy comes today to set us up to receive Newsmax TV.  Bye Bye Fox News.

Updated! Rally for Trump Stunning Beyond Belief!

Yesterday, literally hundreds of thousands of patriots of all colors, creeds and ages descended on the Nation’s capital to send a message of support to the President and to protest the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election and the media’s coronation of King Joe and Queen Kamala.

I am so glad I was there or I wouldn’t have believed it. Reading news accounts in the mainstream media last night and this morning confirmed again what a lying bunch of partisans control the media.

Look at this headline from an AP news story:

Thousands rally behind Trump, believing he won race he lost

AP declares the race over even as counting and lawsuits continue. And “thousands.”  I’m telling you there were hundreds of thousands, but they could have been forgiven if they had at least said ‘tens of thousands.’

Estimating would be almost impossible because the first wave filled the entire length of Pennsylvania Avenue from Freedom Plaza to the Supreme Court about a mile across all lanes and on the sidewalks.  Then an hour or so later an entire additional wave filled the same space as the new group of marchers made it to the Supreme Court steps.

And, virtually all of the mainstream media reported that there was violence “on the margins.”  I was there for hours and saw NO violence, only passionate and courteous people who believe the election was stolen. Yes! Stolen!

Here I am surrounded by Virginia patriots and hundreds of thousands of America Firsters from across our great country!

I was there for the big Tea Party rallies of a decade ago, but this beat anything from that era. Yesterday, like ten years ago, the mainstream media, the fake news, downplayed the enormity of the patriot crowds that gathered then and now.

Yesterday was different for another significant reason summed up in one word—diversity.

Tea Party rallies were largely middle to upper class mostly white Americans, while the diversity represented in the crowd yesterday was remarkable.  The supporters of this President, who came to Washington on short notice, are from all walks of life economically and were representative of the ethnic diversity of America. There were people of color sporting their Trump shirts and hats, large numbers of Hispanics and Asians waving Trump and American flags everywhere.

A Chinese woman came up to my friends and I outside the Supreme Court and implored us to fight the “demon” Chinese Communist Party which she feared would have more power in America if Biden is installed as President.

Again, as I saw no violence for the many hours I was there, it surely happened when night fell and the Antifa/BLM thugs came out like rats and roaches as darkness came to DC.

Here the Biden supporters attack the Willard Hotel:

And, here are Biden voters attacking Trump’s people who dared to stay on a Washington street after dark.

 

I have searched through dozens of media accounts and photos but none, including mine, could do justice to the number of America Firsters! who came to Washington, throwing caution to the wind when it came to the Chinese virus, and clearly having decided that being there was more important than possibly dying.

Oh, and when you see accounts that no one was wearing masks, that is wrong.  Many people did wear masks.

Here are a series of still photos from NPR that I thought were mostly good, but you can tell the Lefties at NPR have added a bunch of photos that are meant for the elites to get a chuckle among themselves about the “deplorables” and “chumps” that make up Trump’s huge base.

First, do you want this America?

Happy patriot warriors!

Or, this America?

Biden supporters!

 

And, this man’s sign sums up why so many were willing to risk China virus death to be there! “Give me liberty or give me a 0.016% chance of death!”

And, sadly I never did see the Proud Boys that the mainstream media is so afraid of.  Here praying before the rally. Is there a Proud Girls group I could join?

 

Everyone was hoping to get a glimpse of the President, but alas he drove by early, mouthing “thank you,” before noon and before the most massive crowds had gathered.  Frankly, his motorcade would not have been able to get through the crowds as they swelled to fill that entire space by noon.

 

 

Were you there yesterday?  If so please comment and let us all know what you saw and heard!

P.S. Sorry in advance if Twitter ultimately deletes accounts and this post loses some good Tweets and videos.  I wouldn’t be surprised to find that happens.

Update! Fellow Marylander Gail Weiss shared her photo album with us.

She said “the diversity and sense of HUMOR of the crowd was what struck me.”

And, to wrap up, another reader from Maryland sent me this comment about the Proud Boys in response to me saying I hadn’t seen them:

I saw the Proud Boys twice. The first time was when they came marching down 13th Street into Freedom Plaza. They were all in black and in formation about five people wide — a lot of them. At first glance I thought they were Antifa because of the all-black clothing, but I soon saw that they weren’t. The second time was at the Supreme Court when again they came marching in in formation. They included several black guys. The first time they didn’t look at the bystanders but the second time they exchanged friendly looks with us. It felt kind of comforting having them there.

Election Fraud: Is AG Barr Serious, or is His Move a Sop to 70 Million Americans?

Editor:  You likely know all of this news already.  I started this post yesterday, but my internet went down again.

Surely you have heard this news from Monday reported here at Politico (Leftwingers) who suggest that Barr is not serious, but only making this move to appease the President and us.

By the way, it is often much more useful to read the other side’s media than ours sometimes.

Deep Stater Richard Pilger resigns his post! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8931713/Barr-OKs-election-probes-despite-little-evidence-fraud.html

Whatever the motive, his move forced the director of the DOJ Criminal Division’s Election Crimes Branch to resign his post.  However, you should read this as good news!  I urge you to do a little search on one Richard Pilger who has headed that branch of the DOJ since 2010.

His name will be familiar to anyone who watched the Obama administration’s attack on Tea Party and other Conservative groups attempts to get an IRS determination to be allowed to raise money for their small emerging political action groups.

See one of many stories about him here at Judicial Watch in 2015.

Here is Politico:

Barr OK for election-fraud investigations roils Justice Department

Attorney General William Barr appeared Monday to make a bid to reassure backers of President Donald Trump who have complained bitterly in recent days that the Justice Department was not taking action to combat alleged voter fraud and other election irregularities.

In a memo to U.S. attorneys, Barr authorized them to open election-fraud investigations “if there are clear and apparently-credible allegations of irregularities that, if true, could potentially impact the outcome of a federal election in an individual State.”

Barr’s memo broadening the authorities of prosecutors in the election season had an abrupt and dramatic impact: prompting the veteran career official running the Justice Department branch that oversees such prosecutions to step down from his post, effective immediately.

[….]

Shortly after Barr’s directive was released, Richard Pilger, director of the DOJ Criminal Division’s Election Crimes Branchsent colleagues an email saying he was transferring to another role in the department. The 28-year-veteran federal prosecutor also made unmistakably clear that alarm at Barr’s policy shift prompted his exit from the job he has held since 2010.

Sorry to make you sick this morning but they will all be back if Biden/Harris get away with stealing the election!

Angling for something are we?

 

Vanita Gupta, who served as head of Justice’s Civil Rights Division under President Barack Obama, posted a copy of Pilger’s resignation email online and called it “a testament to how grossly politicized and partisan the Barr DOJ is, in service of Trump.”

Still, the wording of Barr’s memo left unclear whether it was largely a sop to the president’s supporters or whether it portends serious investigations into last week’s election, of which Joe Biden was declared the winner over Trump.

[….]

Gupta suggested the memo was little more than posturing intended to satisfy the president and fuel misperceptions that voting fraud on any serious scale affected the 2020 presidential contest.

“Let’s be clear — this is about disruption, disinformation, and sowing chaos,” Gupta, now president of the Leadership Conference on Civil & Human Rights. “Trump is furious, demanding all ‘his’ lawyers take action. They have no evidence, so they’ll push the PR.”

“Voters decided election & overwhelmingly picked Biden,” added Gupta. “Election was secure & fair. No factual basis for memo. Scaremongering about opening investigations doesn’t change result.”

If I have the energy to continue blogging, it would be fun to feature the Biden/Harris players as they scurry back into government hidey-holes (if they succeed in stealing the election, that is.)
