Free Republic

AS we know, the Fake-News media invent things, quote a single anonymous source without confirmation, use anonymous sources without identifying their political agenda, and generally will print anything derogatory about the President. All part of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Nothing ruins a leftist narrative from the Dems and Major Fake News Media than humor. This thread can probably grow throughout the Trump presidency. Note: Try not to succumb to the desire to directly quote some of the Leftist nut-jobs like Maxine Waters. However, a riff off of their nutty pronouncements is great.

After GOP establishment forces inside President Donald Trump’s White House forced out National Security Adviser retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, sources close to the president confirm to Breitbart News there is serious doubt as to whether this early administration shake-up will also see the exit of White House chief of staff Reince Priebus. Specifically, multiple sources close to President Trump with internal knowledge of White House operations told Breitbart News on Monday night that the buck stops with Priebus when it comes to the botched rollout of the executive order temporarily banning most travel to the United States from...

Hillary Rodham Clinton has had an odd career for a feminist icon. Her main occupation has consisted of being the long-suffering wife of a powerful man, infamous for treating subordinate women as disposable conveniences, who abused her ruthlessly and humiliated her publicly. In exchange for standing by her man, she was given an orphaned Senate seat in New York, where she did not live, and two shots at the presidency, which she lost to an unknown back-bencher from Chicago in 2008 and to a reality-television host in 2016. Margaret Thatcher she isn't.

Into the future By Udo Gollub at Messe Berlin, Germany I just went to the Singularity University summit. Here are the key points I gathered. Rise and Fall: In 1998, Kodak had 170,000 employees and sold 85% of all photo paper worldwide. Within just a few years, their business model disappeared and they were bankrupt. What happened to Kodak will happen in a lot of industries in the next 10 years – and most people don’t see it coming. Did you think in 1998 that 3 years later you would never take pictures on paper film again? Yet digital cameras...

As we close out 2016, if you’ll allow me, I’d like to take a risk and venture into a topic I’m personally compelled to think about… a topic that will seem far out to most readers. Today’s extraordinary rate of exponential growth may do much more than just disrupt industries. It may actually give birth to a new species, reinventing humanity over the next 30 years. I believe we’re rapidly heading towards a human-scale transformation, the next evolutionary step into what I call a “Meta-Intelligence,” a future in which we are all highly connected—brain to brain via the cloud—sharing thoughts,...

Americans all, The coming POTUS election, merely days away, offers only two (2) choices, IMHO, one the disappearance of the USA as a truly Free Democratic Republic (Trump) or the embarking into a "Third World" nation such as Cuba & Venezuela (Clinton). It is as simple as that, folks!!! Your choice will be either Freedom/Liberty or Big Brother, big govenment dynasty....where the individual is ruled and controlled by the despot state!!! Either the people will rule, or, the few powerful and criminals will determine your future. For folks like me...it matters little, for I have had my fair shot at...

TOLEDO (13abc Action News) - Self-driving cars are getting closer to becoming a reality in America. Testing is underway in a few places around the country and if you travel the Ohio Turnpike, you'll soon be sharing the road with them. We spoke with drivers and the head of the Ohio Turnpike Commission about the testing. The autonomous vehicles could be on the turnpike by the end of the year.

It’s so great to be here tonight. I am honored to also be joined this evening by Governor Scott Walker, Chairman Reince Priebus, and Mayor Rudy Giuliani. We are at a decisive moment in this election. Last week, I laid out my plan to bring jobs back to our country. Yesterday, I laid out my plan to defeat Radical Islamic Terrorism. Tonight, I am going to talk about how to make our communities safe again from crime and lawlessness. Let me begin by thanking the law enforcement officers here in this city, and across this country, for their service and...

SPACE (8/3) reports that a new modeling study indicates that life on Earth may be “premature,” and that the probability of life emerging throughout the universe in the distant future is 1,000 times greater than it is now. Study Lead Author Avi Loeb, with the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, stated, “If you ask, ‘When is life most likely to emerge?’ you might naively say, ‘Now.’” He added that despite such inclinations, “we find that the chance of life grows much higher in the distant future.” The scientists conducting the research “determined that the main factor influencing the possible evolution of...

Everyone is abuzz over Michelle Obama’s passionate speech at the convention Monday night. The most profound part of her speech came towards the end. “This November,” she said, “when we go to the polls, that is what we are deciding. Not Democrat or Republican, not left or right. In this election and every election, it is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives.” That statement should send chills up your spine. Even if you knowledgeably agree with everything the Obama administration has done over the last eight...

In 1998, Kodak had 170,000 employees and sold 85 percent of all photo paper worldwide. Within just a few years, their business model disappeared and they went bankrupt. What happened to Kodak will happen in a lot of industries in the next 10 years – and most people don’t see it coming. Did you think in 1998 that 3 years later you would never take pictures on paper film again? Yet digital cameras were invented in 1975. The first ones only had 10,000 pixels, but followed Moore’s law. So as with all exponential technologies, it was a disappointment for a...

Western civilisation is on the brink of a collapse like that of ancient Rome because the modern generation does not want the responsibility of bringing up children, the former Chief Rabbi Lord Sacks has warned. ... ultimately, he said, European society as we know it “will die” because of the demographic crisis. And mass immigration is not a solution because of problems integrating new arrivals into existing society. "Europe is going to die because of this because Europe can only maintain its population by unprecedented levels of immigration" - Lord Sacks This makes him one of only a handful of...

Interesting cartoon about socialism.

[So here is an idea that we could build on in America, to counter the lefties who are working to make the future a dark time indeed!

Transhumanism Australia, a non-profit that promotes education in science and technology, has marked March 1 as “Future Day.” It wants this day celebrated worldwide as a time “to consider the future of humanity.” If all of us made a habit...

God commanded Moses to teach all of Israel a song which amounted to a prophecy of the entire future of the children of Israel, from their occupation of the Land all of the way to the very last days. The fact that all Israel knew this song, confirms the personal responsibility of each Israelite, as these events unfolded, to either defect or to stay true to God.Israel knew what would happen, if they had just listened to Moses. * First of all the song recounts the blessing and special benefits God bestowed upon the miracle nation, whom He affectionately calls...

Victor Davis Hanson, whose family has lived in California for generations, has written a new book. Jarrett Stepman of Breitbart reviewed The Decline and Fall of California: From Decadence to Destruction, where Hanson paints a stark picture of California’s decline from a state that exemplified the American dream to one crushed under the weight of its utopian vision. …Clearly modeled on famous British historian Edward Gibbon’s Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Hanson’s book makes it clear that the increasingly dystopian California has been the author of its own decline. A half-century of bad policy and failed ideology...
