Friday Talking Points -- #MoscowMitch

[ Posted Friday, July 26th, 2019 – 17:47 UTC ]

We're going to wait until the talking points to fully delve into the catchy hashtag #MoscowMitch, because we feel the point being made is an important one that may just get a whole lot more attention over the next month or so (if the Democrats are capable of following through, that is -- always an open question). Suffice it to say for now that Mitch McConnell is taking an absolutely indefensible stand by essentially aiding and abetting America's enemies.

The big story of the week this week, however, was Robert Mueller's testimony before two different House committees. Our reactions to this spectacle weren't exactly what everyone else in the media focused on, but then that's not saying very much since everyone else was grading Mueller on whether his televised testimony was sufficiently entertaining enough to get high viewer ratings. We sincerely wish we were making that up, but we are not.

Instead, we wondered about the talking point that Democrats in the first committee -- for once -- were universally insistent upon using, usually at the very end of their allotted time. But does the phrase "no one is above the law" actually mean anything anymore? Would an incoming Democratic president really spend their political capital on going after Trump in the courts in a big way, or would the impetus to "move on and look forward" be too strong to resist? It's a fair question, especially when you consider what Barack Obama did when he first entered office. But anyway, we wrote all about that earlier in the week.

The other rather irreverent reaction we had to the hearings was very specific. At one point, a Republican questioner used a phrase which should have immediately generated a forceful Democratic response. After all, if they're not willing to smack this down, then who will be? What I would have dearly loved to have heard at that point would have gone something like this:

"Point of order, Mr. Chairman. POINT OF ORDER!!! My Republican colleague just used a phrase that is meaningless because the entity he described does not actually exist. I would like to move that he be given the chance to withdraw and amend his remarks, or that they be stricken entirely from the record. To state the obvious, there is no such thing as the 'Democrat National Committee.' It does not exist. Such a blatant error should not be allowed in our committee's testimony in any way. How big an idiot would I appear if I used the phrase 'Republic National Committee,' after all? So I would move that the remarks be either withdrawn and amended or stricken from the record completely, as a point of order."

Seriously, when are Democrats going to push back on this idiocy? Republicans think it is some sort of slur to use "Democrat" when they should say "Democratic," which has never really made much sense to begin with, but when one of them tries to do so in official committee testimony misstating the official name of the party's central committee, then Democrats really should push back as hard as parliamentary rules allow them to.

Hmmmph.

The Mueller testimony was the focus of the week, of course, but that focus went pretty fuzzy for most mainstream media sources, television and print combined. The real story, we were told, was that Mueller simply wasn't good television and therefore Democrats would instantly cease trying to impeach Donald Trump. A few voices in the wilderness pushed back against this silliness, most notably in Salon:

If they were reporting on the news, the takes and the headlines would read much differently. They would say things such as, "Mueller testimony reveals extent of criminality in Trump's orbit" and "Mueller affirms that Trump could be arrested for felony crimes after leaving office." Other exciting headlines, based on what was actually said, could read, "Republicans use misinformation and conspiracy theories to try to discredit Mueller" and "Trump's greed, immorality led him to betray country, hearing reveals."

But that's real news, the sort that is based on actually listening to the hearing and reporting on the contents, instead of playing video games on your phone and waiting for the music to swell so you know that it's finally, after all that jibber-jabber about DOJ protocols and investigative practices, about to get good.

This article also referenced a rather amusing tweet from The Atlantic writer Adam Sewer: "The putatively objective press has internalized Trump's own metrics for evaluating public events. Mueller testified that the president is an unprosecuted felon. His testimony however, lacked a compelling musical number."

The one Democrat on the committee who really stood out was its chairman, Adam Schiff. Schiff took his time to run down some very basic questions with Mueller. The answers were just about the only real viral moments of the hearings, as Schiff got Mueller to confirm that his investigation was not a witch hunt, that Russian interference in our elections was not a hoax, and that his report in no way vindicated Donald Trump. Which proves how much Trump has been lying about what the report said, for months now.

There were other media articles written which took a much more sober and intensive look at Mueller's testimony, such as the one Politico ran (claiming Mueller's performance was "awesome"), but for the most part such nuance was pretty hard to find, as everyone else obsessed over the TV ratings of two congressional hearings. Again, we sincerely wish we were making this up, but we are not.

In international news, the United Kingdom got its very own orange clown with bad hair to lead their country. Let's see if their experiment turns out any better than ours! We should know this pretty soon, since Brexit is now slated to happen on Hallowe'en (seriously -- who agreed to that date?!?). Ivanka Trump cheefully welcomed Boris Johnson to the job of "Prime Minister of the United Kingston," which somehow sounds like a Jamaican soccer team. The tweet was swiftly deleted, but not before everyone had a big laugh about her idiocy on the internet (of course).

Elsewhere in the Caribbean, a "PR problem" got solved (so to speak), as the governor of Puerto Rico officially threw in the towel after a significant portion of the island's populace turned out in a gigantic protest against him. He had initially tried to get away with not resigning but merely announcing he would not seek re-election, but that simply was not good enough for Puerto Rico's people. After hundreds of thousands of them protested over the weekend, the governor finally announced his upcoming resignation.

Moving further afield, Trump cavalierly spoke of incinerating 10 million people this week. No, really -- here's what he said in an interview: "If I wanted to win that war, Afghanistan would be wiped off the face of the earth, it would be gone, it would be over literally in 10 days and I don't want to go that route. I just don't want to kill 10 million people." Um, we suppose that's something to be thankful for, at the very least.

In the same region, Donald Trump made a claim about his dealings with the leader of India this week that was just a product of his own twisted imagination. Here's the story:

"I was with Prime Minister Modi two weeks ago," Trump recalled. "He actually said, 'Would you like to be a mediator or arbitrator?' I said, 'Where??' He said, 'Kashmir.' Because this has been going on for many, many years. I was surprised at how long it's been going on," Trump added, revealing his lack of knowledge about the history of the conflict.

Trump added: "I'd love to be a mediator."

This simply did not happen. As the story later points out:

Indian government spokesman Raveesh Kumar flatly repudiated Trump's claim less than an hour after the White House meeting.

Kumar tweeted India's response, assumably so that Trump would actually read it and pay attention to it:

We have seen @POTUS's remarks to the press that he is ready to mediate, if requested by India & Pakistan, on Kashmir issue. No such request has been made by PM @narendramodi to US President.

Both Indians and Native Americans were pushing back on Trump this week, as the New York Times published a piece by Representative Deb Haaland of New Mexico, who is one of two Native American women to be elected to Congress. Haaland pushed back on the president's racist "go back home" nonsense against the other freshmen Democratic House members in a big way, as only a Native American truly can do:

The president and his followers lack the moral authority to tell anyone to leave this country because they are not indigenous to this land. The fact that the president claims this country as his own and wants to keep everyone in their place proves that he doesn't understand his place. I question the standing of anyone who would call to send my sisters and colleagues... or any other American "back." As a 35th-generation New Mexican and a descendant of the original inhabitants of this continent, I say that the promise of our country is for everyone to find success, pursue happiness and live lives of equality. This is the Pueblo way. It's the American way.

Note that "35th-generation" remark, which gives Haaland the moral standing any relative newcomer like Trump will never have.

Let's see, what else? We celebrated the 50th anniversary of the first lunar landing last week, marking a half-century since Neil Armstrong flubbed his lines. For a long time, history books given to children reported that what he said after first setting foot upon the moon was: "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." However, the actual tape shows he skipped over that important "a" in there, making the phrase almost circular in logic: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." But as always, everyone forgives him the flub, since his intended quote is such an astoundingly historic thing to utter on such a momentous occasion. Personally, we enjoyed hearing from Michael Collins during the coverage of the anniversary, since he was the forgotten third man who never actually got to walk on the lunar surface. He only got one song out of his feat, "For Michael Collins, Jeffrey, And Me" by Jethro Tull, so it was good to see him get another moment in the sun.

And finally, we have to close on a bit of trolling, because some student shamed Trump in a very big way this week. In a speech in from of "Turning Point USA," a conservative group hosting a Trump speech to students, an image of the presidential seal was projected behind Trump. Except it wasn't the official seal at all. It was a spoof with a double-headed Russian eagle clutching a set of golf clubs (rather than arrows) and a wad of cash (rather than olive branches). Above the eagle's two heads was the phrase: "45 is a puppet" in Spanish.

HuffPost tracked down the guy who created the image (which he used to sell some T-shirts online), who was vastly amused by the whole thing:

But the man who created the doctored, satirical seal has only kind words for whoever pulled the stunt.

"I love them," said Charles Leazott, a former Republican and graphic designer who was tracked down by The Washington Post on Thursday. Leazott created the seal as a joke just after the 2016 election and told the Post he never expected it to blow up in the news.

The designer said he couldn't be sure whether the person who chose his graphic was "wildly incompetent or the best troll ever," but suspects the explanation given by the conservative group Turning Point USA, which hosted Trump, is nonsense. Turning Point said the seal ended up onscreen due to a last-minute error in finding a high-resolution image to project behind the president.

Personally, we think his fake seal is entirely appropriate for Donald Trump. Heh.

 

Most Impressive Democrat Of The Week

Filmmaker Michael Moore deserves at least an Honorable Mention this week, for a performance on last night's Late Night With Seth Meyers. Moore laid out a very simple two-part plan Democrats should use to win back the presidency in 2020, and it sounds like a pretty good idea to us.

First, nominate a candidate who is likeable. That's harder than it might first sound, but it is crucial. We need someone people can root for head-to-head against Donald Trump. Also, the candidate needs to be a "street fighter" in order to hold their own against Trump in a debate and on the campaign trail. A likeable guy or gal who is a street fighter sounds like a great idea, to us.

Second, use ballot initiatives wherever possible to boost voter turnout. According to Moore, Democrats won big in Michigan in 2018 for a big reason: there were two very popular voter initiatives on the ballot, one to legalize recreational marijuana use and one to outlaw gerrymandering. Both passed with large majorities.

So for Moore's prescription of nominating a likeable street fighter and pushing popular ballot measures as a way to boost Democratic turnout (specifically in Midwestern states), we have to say that's worthy of at least an Honorable Mention.

But this week we're going to give the coveted Most Impressive Democrat Of The Week award to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi once again. During a very contentious week, Pelosi managed to tamp down a lot of the drama within her caucus, and she negotiated a budget deal with the White House that means the debt ceiling won't be taken hostage until at least after the 2020 elections. This budget deal was a compromise with the Republicans, of course, but as always Pelosi got more out of the dealmaking that the GOP. She got a bigger boost in non-military spending than in military spending, and she agreed to finally bury the concept of the "sequester" -- which was always an accounting fiction to begin with.

Not everyone in Pelosi's caucus was a big enough fan of the budget deal to vote for it, but she did manage to get 219 Democratic votes, which would have meant (if it had been necessary) that she could have passed the bill without a single Republican vote. That's a show of strength.

Pelosi was far better at whipping votes than President Trump was, it should also be noted. Although Trump leaned hard on the House Republicans, only 65 of them (out of 197) voted for the budget bill. That's a show of weakness.

Pelosi wrapped up the week by appearing at an event to celebrate the first 200 days of the Democratic House. She gave a short speech where she laid out what Democrats will be campaigning on as they put as much pressure on the GOP Senate as they can over the August break:

We promised to lower health care costs and have sent ten bills to the Senate to reduce prescription drug prices, protect the pre-existing conditions, and reverse the GOP sabotage of health care.

We promised lower health care costs, increase workers' paychecks, and we gave 33 million workers a pay raise by raising the minimum wage, passed paycheck fairness, equal pay for equal work and passed key investments in job creating infrastructure as well as protecting the pensions of our workers.

Lower health care costs, bigger paychecks, cleaner government. We promised to clean up corruption and, in March, we passed H.R. 1, the For The People Act to reduce big, dark money in politics, advance fair and secure elections and restore ethics to government. And, at the same time, fight against any foreign intervention into our elections.

While the media has completely ignored it, the House under Pelosi has actually been passing significant bills which would make the lives of millions upon millions of Americans a lot better. The Senate refuses to act on any of them. This presents a very clear case to the voters about which party has a forward-looking agenda and which one can only say "No" to any good idea the other side has -- because they've completely run out of ideas of their own. That's a pretty good picture to paint out on the campaign trail, and it is all possible because while the media obsessed over every shiny object in her first 200 days, Pelosi was busy passing bill after bill after bill.

So taken in total, we have to say that Nancy Pelosi is the obvious choice for this week's Most Impressive Democrat Of The Week. Here's hoping the next six months can be as productive in Pelosi's House as the first six months.

Most Disappointing Democrat Of The Week

This is fairly low-level, involving only a candidate for a state legislative office, but it is so odious that we feel it rises to the level of a Most Disappointing Democrat Of The Week award. Here's the full and sordid story:

A former Florida state House candidate who claimed to have removed 77 bullets from 32 victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting has admitted the harrowing story was a lie.

According to documents released by the state Department of Health on Wednesday and reported by online media outlet Florida Politics, Democrat Elizabeth McCarthy, who was running for House District 28, came clean during an investigation of the matter.

"It is a false statement. I just made it up," she said. "I wanted to be somebody in the community, and I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I gave any impersonation. I knew it was wrong and I should have stopped -- by no means did I ever mean to put anybody in jeopardy."

During an Orlando town hall discussion on gun safety in March, which was hosted by Rep. Darren Soto (D-Fla.), McCarthy was introduced as an emergency room doctor, and painted a vivid picture of her response to the 2016 shooting at the LGBTQ venue, which left 50 people dead, including the gunman.

"The night of Pulse I was working at Orlando Health, and you're never prepared for it, we've never experienced something like that, something so horrific," she said.

McCarthy then described her wing of the hospital as having been set up "like an assembly line" with teams extracting bullets, preparing victims for operations and performing surgeries.

"The hardest part for me was wheeling a body into the morgue and hearing the cellphones of people that had passed where their loved ones were trying to reach out to them and they couldn't obviously answer," she said.

The then-candidate's speech became even more personal when she noted that "because I'm gay, it struck me even harder," calling the victims "my people."

Florida Politics didn't take her at her word, and instead investigated her story. They found that McCarthy had never been issued a state medical license. She had previously worked as a registered nurse, but never as a doctor. After initially denying the facts Florida Politics uncovered, she finally decided to end her campaign after her lie was so badly exposed.

This is seriously beyond the pale, folks. Making yourself the hero of your own narrative is fine and good, within the confines of your own mind. But telling such tales in public, and then actually running for office on them as a foundation shows a serious lack of humility, to say the absolute least. And a serious lack of intelligence, we might add.

While she's gone from the campaign trail, her problems aren't completely over, though:

She now faces charges from the Florida Department of Health for fabricating her career as a doctor. The department is seeking $1,000 in fines in addition to $2,095 in investigative costs, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

Attempting to perpetrate a hoax over an incident in which many people died is one of the worst reasons we can remember for awarding the MDDOTW. The whole incident, in a word, is downright disgusting.

So even though this is a low-level office and a candidate not an officeholder, we still had to give this week's Most Disappointing Democrat Of The Week to Elizabeth McCarthy of Florida. She should really be hanging her head in shame, right about now.

[Elizabeth McCarthy is no longer a candidate for public office and is a private citizen. It has always been our policy not to provide contact information for such persons, sorry.]

 

Friday Talking Points

Volume 535 (7/24/19)

We realize this is the second week in a row without discrete talking points, but today we were struck by a news story that seemed awfully familiar to us. Because Joe Scarborough echoed an idea we wrote about last month, and (Joe having a much bigger audience than we do) it immediately went viral with a very catchy hashtag. This all ties in with the announcement earlier this week that Democrats plan to make this a very big deal on the campaign trail over the next month. Now, we're not going to attempt to claim any sort of credit for these developments, but see for yourself where we are now versus (at the end) where we urged Democrats to go, last month.

Our story begins with ex-Republican Joe Scarborough, excoriating Mitch McConnell on his Morning Joe cable show, for blocking every effort (both Democratic and bipartisan) to shore up America's election system to protect it from Russian attacks. Here's the part that went viral:

[President Donald Trump] is aiding and abetting [Russian President] Vladimir Putin's ongoing attempts to subvert American democracy, according to the Republican F.B.I., C.I.A., D.N.I., intel committee. All Republicans are all saying Russia is subverting American democracy and Moscow Mitch won't even let the Senate take a vote on it. That is un-American.

Immediately thereafter, "#MoscowMitch" began trending on Twitter.

Mitch McConnell deserves the abuse, and as much more of it that Democrats can dish out during August town hall meetings. Last year, he halted a bipartisan bill to require all states to use paper ballots and conduct post-election audits. This year, he stalled the same bill. This week, not only did Robert Mueller sound the alarm on election security and Russian attempts to breach it, but so did F.B.I. Director Christopher Wray and the Senate's own Intelligence Committee.

HuffPost went into more detail:

State election officials are anxious and underfunded, some running systems with outdated software and scrounging for replacement parts off e-Bay.

And on Thursday a report from the Senate Intelligence Committee concluded all 50 states were targeted in 2016 and ahead of the 2018 election "top election vulnerabilities remained."

But there's no help coming from Congress.

It's a risky calculation heading into 2020, when the stakes will be high for an election that could see record turnout as President Donald Trump runs for a second term. Primary voting is six months away.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday blocked a House-passed bill that would authorize $775 million to beef up state election systems. GOP leaders made the case that the Trump administration has already made great strides in protecting the vote and they say no more funding is needed.

The Senate Democratic leader, Chuck Schumer of New York, called inaction by Congress a "disgrace" and pledged to keep pushing for votes. Mueller's testimony "should be a wake-up call," he said.

"Leader McConnell, let me read you that sentence," Schumer said from the Senate floor, citing Mueller's testimony Wednesday before the House committees about Russian interference. "'They're doing it as we sit here, and they expect to do it in the next campaign.'"

It's not just McConnell who is guilty of aiding and abetting our enemies, but he's obviously the ringleader:

"The Russians are absolutely intent on trying to interfere with our elections," F.B.I. Director Christopher Wray told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday.

The next day, only hours after Mueller testified to the same effect, Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith of Mississippi, a Republican, blocked two election-security bills and a measure regarding cybersecurity for Senate staff.

Democrats had hoped to pass a pair of bills requiring campaigns to alert the F.B.I. and the Federal Election Commission if they received offers of assistance from abroad. Another bill would allow the sergeant-at-arms to offer voluntary assistance to help secure the personal devices and accounts of senators and their staff.

Hyde-Smith blocked all the bills without offering any explanation for her action or stating whether she made the motion by herself or on behalf of her party. Her move is generally in keeping with Republican arguments that Congress has already responded to election security issues, which primarily fall on state officials.

. . .

Last month, another freshman senator, Republican Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, blocked similar legislation. The Secure Elections Act, co-sponsored by Sen. James Lankford of Oklahoma and backed by Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, all Republicans, would streamline cybersecurity information-sharing between federal intelligence agencies and state election authorities and provide security clearances to state election officials. It would also make relevant grants eligible to local jurisdictions.

When Republicans controlled the House last summer, they eliminated new funding for states to strengthen election security. After years of unsuccessfully trying to defund the federal Election Assistance Commission (E.A.C.), Republicans defeated a bill to extend funding for a state grant program meant to ensure that the voting process is secure.

The E.A.C. is the sole federal agency that exclusively works to secure the integrity of the democratic process. It has worked with the F.B.I. to examine an attack on the agency's computer systems by a Russian-speaking hacker after Trump's election.

Late last month, the Democratic House majority passed an election security measure that authorized an additional $600 million to states as well as $175 million every other year to bolster election infrastructure. The bill would also require voting systems to use paper ballots as a backup to electronic systems, and would require that all 50 states conduct audits after elections. A recent analysis by the Associated Press found that many of the 10,000 election jurisdictions nationwide use old or outmoded operating systems to create their ballots, program voting machines, tally votes and report counts.

All but one Republican in the House opposed the bill. The day after Mueller's testimony, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell blocked the bill in the Senate.

Finally, Democrats are beginning to realize the political potency of this issue, and it looks like they'll be hammering on it throughout the August break. The gift of the #MoscowMitch tag is merely icing on the cake, as it were. Even before Mueller testified, Democrats were signaling they'd be making this a big political issue, as well they should:

"The only people that are stopping these kinds of common-sense measures from becoming law of the land are... leader McConnell and President Trump," Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, the Senate Intelligence Committee's top Democrat, said during a Capitol Hill press conference.

While Republicans and Democrats alike have attempted to pass a variety of legislation to improve election security over the past two years in response to Russian interference, McConnell has repeatedly stood in the way of the bills and argued against the need for a greater federal role to protect voting.

"We're talking about low-hanging fruit that, if it came to the floor of the Senate, they would pass with close to 80-plus votes," he added, referencing previously introduced measures that would require states to use paper ballots and conduct post-election audits, impose sanctions on Russia if it attempted to interfere again and mandate that campaigns contact law enforcement if contacted by a foreign power.

When it comes to election security, McConnell "is not afraid of the Russians. He's afraid of the United States Senate, a Republican-controlled Senate," according to Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.).

McConnell would "rather run the risk that we would have an election result that doesn't reflect a democratic vote" than tackle the issue, he said. "That, to me, is a low point in the history of this country."

. . .

Rep. John Sarbanes (D-Md.), who chairs the House Democracy Reform Task Force, said the chamber had tried to accommodate McConnell by breaking out the ballot box security provisions from a larger measure that was a grab-bag of election reform efforts.

But now "that's piling up on the Senate side against the door that Mitch McConnell has barred when it comes to protecting our democracy," Sarbanes said, noting that last month the House passed a Democrat-backed bill that would require election systems to use voter-verified paper ballots.

"The alarm bells are going off, the lights are flashing and Mitch McConnell is blithely sleepwalking through it all," he said.

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), a member of the Intelligence Committee, predicted that a "host" of foreign nations will look to interfere in 2020 and that local and state officials "don't have the funds" to fend off such an onslaught.

He said that he and other Democrats would act as "election security Paul Reveres" over the August recess to warn of the looming threats.

That's an ominous phrase if ever we heard one, for Republicans. After all, it's pretty hard to defend what McConnell is doing. No matter how hard he tries, "making elections safe and fair" is just never going to sound partisan in any way to American voters -- instead it's going to sound like a pretty good idea to make elections safer and more fair. But Republicans have painted themselves into the corner of explaining why having paper ballots that can be counted later is some sort of dastardly Democratic plot.

Obviously, it isn't. And obviously, Democrats should be making this case. Loudly. As we mentioned, over a month ago we prodded the Democrats to do precisely this, using the same phrase Joe Scarborough began with. In an article titled "Aiding And Abetting The Enemy," we suggested some boilerplate speechifyin' Democrats should be using out on the hustings. The only thing we'd really change would be to sprinkle the taunt "#MoscowMitch" throughout, but that's a pretty easy edit to make. In any case, to close on, here's what we wrote back then:

When America has been attacked in the past, politicians in Washington have put aside partisan differences to meet these dangers head-on, standing together. We unite in times of crisis to battle America's enemies. That has been a bedrock of our democracy for over two centuries. But now we are under attack again, and one party seems content to just sit back and let it happen.

This is a disgrace. I'd like to ask all Republicans in the Senate what they think Ronald Reagan would say about standing up to a Russian attack on our elections, if he were still alive today. What would Ronnie do? Allow Mitch McConnell to aid and abet the Russians by refusing to even consider legislation to protect the foundation of our democracy -- our free and fair elections? Or would Reagan fight back against Russia? Which do you think is more likely?

For over a half-century, one of the Republican Party's core beliefs was the existential threat Russia posed to America. They have thrown all that out the window, folks. They are now content to allow Moscow to attack our elections with impunity. There are House bills waiting for action in the Senate to fight back against these attacks, but Mitch McConnell doesn't want to give the Democrats a political "win" by bringing them to a vote. There are bipartisan bills written by Senate Democrats and Republicans together which are also being ignored by McConnell. This is an absolute disgrace.

Every member of Congress swears an oath to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic, but Republicans are allowing Mitch McConnell to shirk this defining duty. We call on every Republican who cares about defending America from foreign attack to demand that Mitch McConnell end his petty partisan posturing and allow the United States Senate to get to work on legislation to protect American elections. Anything less is a blatant dereliction of duty.

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court cleared the way Friday for the Trump administration to tap billions of dollars in Pentagon funds to build sections of a border wall with Mexico.

    The court’s five conservative justices gave the administration the greenlight to begin work on four contracts it has awarded using Defense Department money. Funding for the projects had been frozen by lower courts while a lawsuit over the money proceeded. The court’s four liberal justices wouldn’t have allowed construction to start.

    The justices’ decision to lift the freeze on the money allows President Donald Trump to make progress on a major 2016 campaign promise heading into his race for a second term. Trump tweeted after the announcement: “Wow! Big VICTORY on the Wall. The United States Supreme Court overturns lower court injunction, allows Southern Border Wall to proceed. Big WIN for Border Security and the Rule of Law!”

    The lawsuit at the Supreme Court was brought by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of the Sierra Club and Southern Border Communities Coalition. The justices who lifted the freeze on the money did not give a lengthy explanation for their decision. But they said among the reasons they were doing so was that the government had made a “sufficient showing at this stage” that those bringing the lawsuit don’t have a right to challenge the decision to use the money.

    EXCLUSIVE: Ilhan Omar SPLITS with her husband and moves into luxury penthouse as she heads for SECOND divorce with father of her three children

    Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and her husband Ahmed Hirsi – the father of her three children – have split, DailyMail.com has learned exclusively

    Omar left her husband and has moved into a penthouse apartment in one of Minneapolis's trendiest neighborhoods

    'Wow,' said Hirsi, when approached about the split by DailyMail.com. 'I can't comment on that. I'm sorry, I just can't say anything'

    Omar did not return calls requesting comment from DailyMail.com by deadline

    The news comes as critics are demanding Omar answer questions about whether she married her own brother in a successful bid to get him into the US

    'Obviously we are proud that a Somali-American has been elected — but we just think it is the wrong Somali-American,' a community leader told DailyMail.com

    Omar first married Hirsi in an Islamic ceremony in 2002 when she was 19, but six years later they 'reached an impasse in our life together,' and divorced

    In 2009, Omar married Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, a British citizen, who has been identified as her brother - but this has not been proven

    Omar had a third child with Hirsi in 2012, even though she was still legally married to Elmi - who she divorced in 2017 and married Hirsi in 2018

    This THIRD Husband rumored to be Omar's son from a previous PREVIOUS marriage.. :D

    Funny how Dumbocrats carp on an on about President Trump's alleged immorality, but don't care one whit when the face of the Democrat Party marries siblings to commit immigration fraud...

    Drazkowski told DailyMail.com that Omar may be 'the most crooked politician in Minnesota history.

    'She seems to have a deep and pervasive disdain for the law which is ironic given the fact that she is a United States lawmaker,' he added. 'Marrying your brother is a violation of the law in Minnesota.

    'Ilhan Omar has already established a lengthy and extraordinary record of legal convictions and fines,' he said, referring to a $500 fine she was levied for campaign finance violations on top of $3,500 in donations that she had to repay. 'This is a record upon which a House Ethics Committee should begin its investigation.

    'But first she needs to come forward and tell us the truth. She won't even identify her own siblings at this stage.'

    Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton said: 'The evidence is overwhelming. Rep. Omar may have violated the law and House rules.

    'The House of Representatives must urgently investigate and resolve the serious allegations of wrongdoing.'

    Fitton said she should be investigated for perjury, immigration fraud, marriage fraud, state and federal tax fraud and federal student loan fraud.

    CW: Attempting to perpetrate a hoax over an incident in which many people died is one of the worst reasons we can remember for awarding the MDDOTW. The whole incident, in a word, is downright disgusting.

    It truly is beyond the pale when anyone does this and immediately brings to my mind a bit of GOP debate history:

    How did he keep us safe when the World Trade Center -- the World -- excuse me [as the crowd booed]. I lost hundreds of friends! ~ Donald Trump, South Carolina debate, February 13, 2016

    After the debate, a Senator from South Carolina commented:

    This is clearly getting under Donald Trump's skin. I hope the people of South Carolina will send a message to Donald Trump that we don't like Putin, we like W. ~ Senator Lindsey Graham

    So don't bore us with all the bullshit about nobody ever mentioning Trump/Putin until after election day; that is the real hoax being perpetrated on this country. Need I remind the Trump sycophants that Lindsey Graham happened to be the one who encouraged John McCain to turn over the Steele Dossier to the FBI long before the election? Graham couldn't help himself; he spoke about Trump and Putin in early 2016, but I digress.

    The next day when questioned about the debate and his "hundreds of friends," Trump changed his statement to "many, many friends" who died on 9/11. When his campaign was then repeatedly asked by journalists for a list of Donald Trump's friends who died on 9/11, not a single one was given. Further research revealed that Trump had zero friends who died on 9/11 and that he had attended zero funerals of those who were murdered... not a single one.

    The research did uncover a statement made by Trump on 9/11 bragging about his building now being "the tallest":

    40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan and it was actually, before the World Trade Center, was the tallest — and then, when they built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second tallest, and now it’s the tallest. ~ Donald Trump, September 11, 2001, phoning in to WWOR-TV

    No mention in the phone call the day of the incident about his concern for his "hundreds of friends" in the Twin Towers or regarding their whereabouts, but he did mention one who bought the tower who hadn't moved in yet.

    Ask yourself what kind of person it would take to seek to boost himself in a political debate by claiming a connection to hundreds of American citizens who were murdered in one of the worst attacks on this country in our nation's history, who would brag the same day that thousands of people were murdered that his building was now the tallest, and what kind of person would turn a blind eye and lie repeatedly about Russia's involvement with his campaign when he knew full well what was taking place?

    That kind of repeated pathological lying in order to advance a personal agenda says a lot about a person like Trump, but what does it say about our lawmakers, representatives, and electorate if we shrug and keep ignoring this grifting con?

    The 5-4 ruling, which broke along ideological lines, means President Trump can tap into military funds to begin work to replace fencing along the southern border in California, Arizona and New Mexico. Earlier this month, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco had agreed with a lower-court ruling that prevented the government from tapping that funding.

    Trump declared a national emergency along the border to get up to $8.1 billion for wall construction, including the $2.5 billion from the Defense Department. He called the ruling a big win for "Border Security and the Rule of Law."

    "Wow! Big VICTORY on the Wall. The United States Supreme Court overturns lower court injunction, allows Southern Border Wall to proceed. Big WIN for Border Security and the Rule of Law!" he tweeted.

    The President’s Son Was ATTACKED While With Friends In Chicago — Secret Service SWARM!

    It’s a known fact that leftists have no tolerance for free speech. They genuinely are a disease to the freedom and liberty that we enjoy. But what happened to President Trump’s son Eric is off the map.

    Eric told Breitbart News that he was attacked by an employee of an upscale restaurant when she spat on him after he entered the premises.

    Yep... Dumbocrats have nowhere to go but down..

    Impeachment has struggled to get the support of Democratic members of Congress, it doesn’t rate in public opinion polls, and Robert Mueller did nothing to give it a jump-start with his testimony on Wednesday.

    61% of Americans don't want President Trump impeached..

    He stayed within the four corners of the fact and judgments already written down in his report. Rather than adding performative sizzle, he often knew less about his work product than his interlocutors on the right and on the left, and he regularly asked for questions to be repeated. He didn’t even attempt to answer what is the precedent or authority for his not-exonerated standard, even though Republicans were obviously going to press him on it. If this had been a confirmation hearing, he would have flunked.

    Yep.. His performance was THAT bad...

    It’s just as well that Mueller didn’t perform the function that Democrats hoped he would. He’s already violated, at minimum, the spirit of the special-counsel regulations that were meant to closely tether special counsels to standard Justice Department operating procedures rather than empower them to serve up de facto impeachment referrals to Congress. This is what Mueller’s office did anyway (with Justice Department officials hesitant to exercise proper supervision lest they, too, be accused of obstruction of justice). It’s even more inappropriate for a special counsel to go and talk about the conduct of someone, in this case, the president of the United States, who hasn’t been indicted or even accused of a crime.

    Of course if the America hating Hillary sycophant team was going to be "appropriate" they wouldn't have tried to engineer this coup in the first place...

    Trump’s critics say that the only thing that stopped Mueller from charging Trump was the Office of Legal Counsel guidance against indicting a sitting president. They briefly got their hopes up when the special counsel seemed to say as much, in an exchange with Representative Ted Lieu, but Mueller had been unclear and revised and extended his remarks. As the report says, he never reached a judgment on whether or not Trump has committed the crime of obstruction.

    Yea, our very own cock-holster Russ, tried to pass that bullshit off as fact.. Of course he was bitch-slapped all over the forum by yours truly and ran away to lick his wounds...

If Democrats are going to impeach Trump, they will now have to do so without the hope of Mueller’s making their case for them — and with less hope than ever of rallying most of the public. As for the Republicans, they will understandably be even more motivated to learn more about the origins and the conduct of the investigation, given that Mueller performed more like a poorly briefed figurehead for a staff-driven operation rather than its leader.

    Mueller's testimony proved one thing beyond any doubt.. He was nothing but a figure-head.. A patsy to support the delusion that this was an actual investigation instead of the coup attempt it really was..

    Everyone

    Anyone interested in the recent polling I was referring to regarding impeachment statistics versus the outdated bullshit the board troll pulled out of his ignorant ass, you are welcome to the newer data along with some other interesting figures showing Trump's disapproval rating at 57%:

    POLITICO/Morning Consult, 07/25/2019

    POL13: As you may know, the first step toward removing a president from o?ce is impeachment. Do you believe Congress should or should not begin impeachment proceedings to remove President Trump from o?ce?

    37% Yes, Congress should begin impeachment proceedings
    46% No, Congress should not begin impeachment proceedings
    16% Don’t know/No opinion

    https://www.politico.com/f/?id=0000016c-2f87-d23a-adec-bfb73c1b0001

    If Fox News is more your "thing," their most recent impeachment polling data:

    Support for impeaching Trump and removing him from office has stayed between 39-43 percent since June 2018. Currently, 42 percent of voters support that approach. Another 5 percent want him impeached but not removed, while 45 percent oppose impeachment altogether.

    FOX News, July 21-23, 2019

    Should President Trump Be Impeached
    And Removed From Office?

    42% Impeached And Removed
    5% Impeached, But Not Removed
    45% Not Impeached

    So to recap: The "40 something percent" figure to which I was referring is the most recent polling data from multiple polls versus data that is over a month and a half old.

    For historical comparison, when hearings against Nixon began, data regarding those in favor of impeachment were around the mid 20 range... so Trump is beating Dick with a solid high 30s to low 40s percentage! Winning! :)

    “I regret that I will miss the rest of the revolution. Doing what I can to help defend my precious and wondrous people is an experience too rich to describe. I am Antifa,” wrote Willem Van Spronsen.

    Given Van Spronsen’s unambiguous, self-proclaimed association with Antifa and his history of activism on behalf of the group, his motivation for attempting to carry out a violent, presumably murderous act against the staff at an immigrant detention facility in Tacoma, Washington was clear.

    “I am Antifa” leaves little room for debate.

    CNN, however, interprets these three incriminating words differently:

    “The motive behind the armed man’s pre-dawn attack is unclear.”

    It may or may not be intentional, but the benefit of the doubt is selectively applied: it’s only present when the act in question is a result of left-wing violence. And the issue isn’t whether or not activist groups should be held accountable for rogue actors, it’s that the media’s standards for association differ profoundly based on political affiliation. They willfully ignore credible leads inconsistent with their narrative.

    The recent hate crime hoax involving Jussie Smollett demonstrates this disparity. Vanity Fair was bold: “Empire’s Jussie Smollett Hospitalized After Racist, Homophobic Attack” as was CNN: “Empire” actor victim of racist and homophobic assault”.

    Following this, the Tacoma attack headlines might have read “ICE agents victim of failed Antifa attack”. That’s an entirely different tone.

    These “mistakes” happen too frequently. The media is trigger happy when it comes to associating an act of violence with racism, homophobia, or any form of bigotry.

    GQ originally published an article entitled “The Racist, Homophobic Attack on Jussie Smollett Is Far-Right America’s Endgame” before changing the title to accommodate recent developments in the case: “GQ made two errors in editorial judgment. We failed to clearly present the post as an opinion piece. And we regret applying unfounded political motivations to then-breaking news with the original headline.”

    CRS-17

    Sloppy thinking about the notion that a lack of physical connection to the internet equals security from hacking. The sad part is you are not alone. From an ABC report on that subject:

    Election officials make a consistent point: Their machines are not connected to the Internet, meaning hackers can’t reach them from afar. Nor are they (usually) connected to each other, meaning a hacker would have to attack many machines to change votes on a broad scale.

    “I don’t think anybody can get into our machines, so security wise, I am not concerned about them,” Delaware Election Commissioner Elaine Manlove told ABC News in August.

    Cybersecurity experts, however, aren’t so sure. Sophisticated hackers can breach even those “air-gapped” networks, they say, and voting machines might come into contact with the Internet in other ways. Experts point to potential vulnerabilities along the supply chain of a vote, perhaps in the computers used to program the voting machines or those used to tally the votes.

    “The argument that you have to hack them one by one is a misconception, in my opinion,” DEF CON organizer Harri Hursti told ABC News, because “the programming of the voting machines is always coming from a central location” that could be hacked.

    Practices vary widely county by county , and some states have been more active than others in addressing threats, which can make the overall landscape of vulnerabilities difficult to assess.

    “It’s absolutely a patchwork of strengths and weaknesses,” Halderman said.

    Unbelievably, Pelosi — long a G.O.P. target for her unalloyed liberalism — is derided by the far left for her pragmatism. But she has been through enough Washington wars to know that idealism, untempered by realism, is dangerous.

    An impeachment could return Trump to power. The highchair king from Fifth Avenue would exult in his victimhood and energize his always-ready-to-be aggrieved followers.

    It could also lead to Democrats losing the House as their moderates fall and help Republicans hold the Senate. No Republicans would vote for impeaching Trump and some Democrats might refuse as well. Even if the House acted, Mitch McConnell would smother it in the Senate, just like he did Merrick Garland.

    It’s better to pull out Trump by the roots in the election and firmly repudiate him. The Democrats should focus on the future, not the benighted past that we have been relegated to under Trump.

    Democrats have come to the full realization that they are going to lose and lose big in Nov of 2020..

    That is why impeachment is now on the front burner...

    The progressives’ cry that they don’t care about the political consequences because they have a higher cause is just a purity racket.

    Their mantra is like that of Ferdinand I, the Holy Roman Emperor: “Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.” “Let justice be done, though the world perish.”

    Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted a call for those affected by the 2017 data leak to make a claim, saying they could get $125 — “a nice chunk of change.”

    But only $31 million has been earmarked for the payments, and the more who file claims, the less each person gets.

    “Everyone: go get your check from Equifax! $125 is a nice chunk of change,” she said. “Get that money and pay off a bill, sock it away, take a day off, treat yourself, whatever you’d like – but cash ???????? that ???????? check! ???????? ???? It takes one minute.”

    The clauses stated above are among the first lines in a petition the committee filed late last week in federal court “FOR AN ORDER AUTHORIZING THE RELEASE OF CERTAIN GRAND JURY MATERIALS.” Those documents pertain to the Mueller Report. They could help lawmakers set the stage for impeachment.

    So are Congressional Democrats trying to impeach the President or not?

    “An impeachment inquiry is not an official thing,” said one Judiciary Committee counsel.

    Instead, lawmakers on the committee say the court filing is just part of a Democratic inquest "to determine if they should recommend articles of impeachment."

    Perhaps Congressional Democrats are attempting to hold paradoxical postures. Impeaching Mr. Trump. But not really. It’s like the duality of superposition in quantum mechanics. Things which simultaneously occupy two linear states.

    Is this possible?

    Could the St. Louis Cardinals also be the Chicago White Sox? Is chocolate ice cream also Jamoca caramel fudge? Was Dick York also Dick Sargent playing Darren on Bewitched?

    Democrats on the Judiciary Committee tried to straighten this all out for reporters at a puzzling press conference Friday. But they may have inadvertently muddied it for everyone.

That's what's behind his surprise Twitter assault that began with Rep. Elijah Cummings and his rat-infested Baltimore district, which pretty much came out of the blue.

The video of the Baltimore resident decrying the Democratic area's neglect is absolutely deadly.

    Obviously, Trump's aim is to cut deep into the black vote, by laying the blame for the decayed urban cities many are forced to live in, on Democrats and forcing them to defend that record. Blacks are Democrats' political base, and they're also the prime victims of blue-city policies as well as all the neglect inherent in them as Democrats focus on saving the earth by banning plastic straws or else offering free health care to every illegal border crosser, so it's an unusually bold attack.

    How are Democrats going to defend themselves from this one? In one-party blue cities, states and districts, there's no one to blame but themselves. Trump's tactic is particularly ripe for propagation in solid-blue, shambling expensive California and already Trump is moving his attack onto Pelosi with his latest tweets.

    Thus far, Democrats are fighting back by yelling 'racism.' It's a tired, weak weapon, grotesquely overused, and unlikely to rally black voters to Democrats, given the truth of Trump's tweets. What's more, it can't be employed by Pelosi, who's white. The issue and the narrative Trump is pushing out there is that all-blue cities are hellholes and they've been made

    Of course, Democrats resort to their lame Race Card.. But, as has already been PROVEN beyond any doubt, calling Democrat Ruled areas of the country shitholes is NOT racist..

The Deep State frauds looking to spy on Trump and frame him needed a famous, credible name to give them cover. To protect them from charges of “witch hunt” they choose Mueller, a former FBI chief who was a registered Republican.

    They chose a feeble, elderly man who was never capable of leading a complex, two-year probe of the president. This was never his investigation. And that’s precisely what they counted on. Mueller was a shill.

    It belonged from Day One to liberal, biased Hillary Clinton supporter and donor Andrew Weissmann. He hired 19 angry Clinton and Barack Obama donors to frame Trump. The fix was in, and Mueller had no clue what was going on. It became the partisan witch hunt of all-time with no adult supervision.

    We can all stop calling it the “Mueller report.” It was always from day one the “Weissmann Witch Hunt.”

    The fraud has been exposed. Trump is now exonerated. Impeachment is over. Re-election is all but assured. And Andrew Weissmann is now in the crosshairs of the DOJ.

    How short of expectations did Mueller fall? His appearance was the Al Capone’s Vault of political news. Just a few months ago this is how liberals saw him: “Bob Mueller may as well have been Elijah, the prophet for whom Jews reserve an empty chair and cup, whose coming symbolizes the answers to all the world’s remaining questions,” read a dispatch from the Washington dinner-party scene in the Washingtonian. Vogue called him “America’s newest crush.” Portland Monthly said “the hottest gift this holiday season” was a Robert Mueller devotional candle. Old people lamented, with their dying breaths, that the thing they really minded was not getting to hear from Mueller.

    Mueller was the Democrats’ prophet-boyfriend. But he turned out to be a dud between the sheets, or rather the political-nerd equivalent of that, the hot seat in front of Congress. Which was the chair where Jerry Nadler inexplicably placed this tired and taciturn old man in the entirely fanciful hope he would turn out to be the Yoda of the Resistance.

    OK Let's start phase II by Fact-Checking President Trump's Baltimore claims..

    ALLEGATION: Baltimore is considered the worst-run city in America.

    ANALYSIS: True.

    The BBC featured the city in a scathing report on poverty in America. At least 25 percent of the people in Cummings' congressional district live in poverty.

    "If you want to know what poverty in America looks like, well this is it," the BBC reporter declared.

    One resident told the television network that "despair is a way of living" in a congressional district where second and third generations of Americans live in poverty.

    The resident said the houses are "rat infested, regardless of what you do as a person living there, roaches, mice, an epidemic of bed bugs."

    "The neighborhoods have fallen apart, not because the people are bad people," the man said.

    Baltimore city schools rank among the lowest in the state of Maryland, according to the CBS television affiliate in Baltimore.

    In 2015 the Washington Post reported that the average life expectancy in some of the city’s poorest neighborhoods is nearly 20 years below the national average.

    “Fourteen Baltimore neighborhoods have lower life expectancies than North Korea,” the Washington Post reported. “Eight are doing worse than Syria.”

    Even Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., currently a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, was shell-shocked by the city’s deplorable living conditions.

    “Anyone who took the walk that we took around this neighborhood would not think you’re in a wealthy nation,” Sanders said during a 2015 visit reported by the Baltimore Sun. “You would think that you were in a Third World Country.”

    OK, so Democrats and Sanders and President Trump all agree...

    Baltimore is a shithole.. But is it a rat and rodent infested shihole...

    ALLEGATION: Baltimore is infested with rats and rodents.

    ANALYSIS: True.

    According to Orkin Pest Control, Baltimore is one of the most rat-infested cities in America. The pest control company ranks Baltimore No. 6 on its list. All of the Top 10 most rat-infested cities are controlled by Democrats, by the way.

    Apparently, Baltimore IS a rat and rodent infested shithole..

    Interesting to note that the TOP TEN cities in America that are rated for rat infestation are ALL Democrat run cities..

    Not that THAT is surprising...

    Rats like DemcoRAT cities.. Rats get free reign...

    See what I did^^^ there :D

    OK.. So, Baltimore IS a shithole and IS rat and rodent infested..

    But is it a filthy mess, as President Trump says..

    ALLEGATION: Baltimore is a filthy mess.

    ANALYSIS: True.

    In April the Baltimore Sun Editorial Board called out the city's trashy reputation.

    "Food containers, balled up clothes, paper, banana peels, plastic bags and tons of other pieces of litter line the shoulders of roads, pile up in alleys and are strewn across fields and yards,” an editorial in the newspaper said. “Not only is it unsightly and contributes to a rodent problem, but it can create a glum and gloomy feel in a time when the city is already facing self-esteem issues because of high crime and the scandal surrounding the University Maryland Medical System and Mayor Catherine Pugh, who’s now on an indefinite leave, and her Healthy Holly books. If anything, the city needs a major scrubbing to help restore some of its faith and image."

    Mayor Pugh resigned in May.

    So when the Baltimore Sun calls out the city’s trash reputation it’s an act of public service, but when President Trump does the same thing it’s racist?

    Apparently, Baltimore *IS* a filthy mess... At least that's what it's own hometown newspaper says..

    Funny how when everyone and anyone with a -D after their name says Baltimore is a mess, it's not racist..

    But when President Trump says the exact same thing.. ALL of a sudden, it's racist.. :eyeroll:

    OK, so the FACTS clearly prove beyond any doubt that Baltimore is a shithole and Baltimore is rat infested AND it's a filthy mess..

    But is Baltimore REALLY dangerous???

    ALLEGATION: Baltimore is a dangerous city.

    ANALYSIS: True.

    Baltimore is deadlier than Chicago and Detroit, according to crime statistics released by the FBI, and had the highest homicide rate in the nation in 2018, USA Today reports.

    GunViolenceArchives.org reports that Baltimore was responsible for more than half of incidents involving guns in Maryland. And Baltimore accounted for nearly half of murders involving a weapon.

    Last year, Baltimore had the HIGHEST homicide rate....

    THE.... HIGHEST.... HOMICIDE.... RATE.....

    So, yea.. I guess it is factually accurate that Baltimore is a dangerous city...

    So, let's sum things up..

    President Trump said that Baltimore is the one of the "worst run" cities in the country..

    The facts support such a claim..

    President Trump said that Baltimore is rat and rodent infested.. The FACTS indicate that Baltimore IS, indeed, rat and rodent infested...

    President Trump said that Baltimore is a "filthy mess"... Baltimore's own hometown newspaper says the same thing.. So, THAT is factually accurate...

    Finally, President Trump said that Baltimore is a "dangerous place"... The FACTS show that Baltimore had THE HIGHEST HOMICIDE rate in the country in 2018... So, yea.. It is factually accurate that Baltimore is, indeed, a "dangerous place"...

    So, President Trump's claims are factual and proven factual beyond ANY doubt..

    Now.. it's ya'all's turn...

    Do ya'all have ***ANY*** facts to support your claim that President Trump's totally factual and totally proven claims are racist??

    ANY facts at all??

    No.. You do not..

    A Big Wednesday for 'Populists' on Both Sides of the Atlantic

    Power shifted Wednesday, on both sides of the Atlantic.

    In Washington, the dim performance of Robert Mueller, in the hearings House Democrats insisted on, took the last air out of the Collusiongate balloon. The notion that Donald Trump would be hounded out of office has been revealed as the fantasy it always was.

    In London, Boris Johnson met with the queen and left Buckingham Palace as her 14th prime minister. He proceeded to No. 10 Downing Street and reiterated his promise to deliver Brexit -- British exit from the European Union -- by the statutory deadline of Oct. 31.

    Some of you will recall E. Cummings standing up for the Meadows scumbag after Meadows pulled out his token black woman to claim he isn't a racist during a hearing. At the time I thought Cummings felt forced to defend Meadows - perhaps he knew (as did everyone watching) that Meadows was full of shit. But he felt compelled to make nice anyway. Meadows, naturally, didn't return the favor.

    Controversy over Blue Lives Matter flag forces family of fallen officer to remove it from utility pole

    The family of a Maine police officer killed in the line of duty said it felt forced to remove a Thin Blue Line flag to mark the anniversary of his death after learning of complaints that it was racist.

    Trooper Charles Black was fatally shot during a bank robbery in 1964. His son, also named Charlie Black, decided to erect the Thin Blue Line flag, which is also known as the Blue Lives Matter flag and is meant to honor law enforcement. The son placed the flag on a utility pole near his home, prompting some residents to complain that an offensive symbol was on public property.

    The town manager of York, Maine told News Center Maine that a resident visited his office to complain about the flag.

    “A resident came in and said there’s a problem,” Town Manager Steve Burns said, adding that the resident contended “This is a flag that represents segregation and discrimination.”

    Trump is right about Baltimore — and the Democrats know it

    President Trump blistered Rep. Elijah Cummings on Twitter, calling out the chairman of the House Oversight Committee for raising the hue and cry over conditions on the Mexican border, “when actually his Baltimore district is FAR WORSE and more dangerous. His district is considered the Worst in the USA.” Trump went on to describe Cummings’ West Baltimore constituency as “a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. If he spent more time in Baltimore, maybe he could help clean up this very dangerous & filthy place.”

    Predictably, the Left — including most of cable news — rushed to condemn Trump as a racist. Speaker Nancy Pelosi — whose father was once mayor of Baltimore — called Cummings “a beloved leader in Baltimore, and deeply valued colleague. We all reject racist attacks against him and support his steadfast leadership.” Sen. Elizabeth Warren tweeted, “Donald Trump’s tweets are ugly and racist.” Beto O’Rourke called him “the most openly racist president we’ve had in modern history.” Sen. Bernie Sanders chimed in, too.

    Rep. Ilhan Omar faces challenge from Chris Kelley, a celebrated Iraq war veteran

    When Rep. Ilhan Omar ignited steep controversy in March describing the September 11 attacks as “some people did something,” it was then that a longtime cop in her neighborhood decided he needed to do more than just bemoan what he perceived as a shocking trivialization of a terrorist attack that tore through the fabric of his beloved country.

    Now, Chris Kelley, who has collected eleven military medals as a 27-year veteran of the U.S. Army and Army Reserves and clocked more than 36,000 hours patrolling the Minnesota streets as a 20-year veteran of the Minneapolis Police Force, has his sights set on knocking Omar from her seat representing Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District in 2020.

    “September 11 was a terrible loss of life, not just for police officers and firefighters and other first responders, but 3,000 people and non-combatants died, and to be dismissive of that was an outrage. I could sit and complain or I could do something about it,” Kelley, who is campaigning as an Independent, told Fox News. “And I believe I can be a positive voice in standing up for people in our country, and for our first responders and the people every day on the frontlines.”

    In his view, current representative Omar has devoted too much time to crafting her “celebrity” than on being of service to the community, which he insists he will serve honorably if elected.

    Whomever the Democratic candidate running against the bag of shit and whatever term is used to describe them by JL, me, Russ, Neil, or anyone else, I believe I have made it abundantly clear on this board at least 500+ times now that I want to see Trump voted out of office and held responsible for his crimes as set forth in writing in documents in various courtrooms across America and placed in prison with the other Trump Trash now residing there.
