    After huffing about Trump thanking Mexico for stopping the caravan of 3,000 - 4,000 “migrants”, White House correspondent Tara Palmeri asserted Trump was blaming Democrats with no evidence. “Weeks away from the midterms, Trump in Elko, Nevada rallying for Republicans in tight races and sharpening his attacks; blaming the Democrats without any proof for the crisis on the border,” she said.

    No American should be confused or undecided this November. If America falls, the world will fall with it With all that is going on today in our social and political culture, especially the audacious unmasking of what liberals and the Democrat Party are now demanding, it would not be difficult to imagine an America ruled by the Left, the modern liberal, the modern Democrat Party. I say modern liberal because it is a far cry from the classic liberal of the forgotten past. The classic liberal would advocate Constitutional Republicanism, a limited government with basic inalienable rights entrusted upon its...

    Hate is the only real message the Democrats want to convey Over the next several weeks, Americans will be going to the polls in the most eagerly anticipated and consequential midterm election in our nation’s history. Voters will decide whether to continue the President’s agenda which includes cutting regulations and taxes, boosting our military, renegotiating our trade deals, and focusing on border security. This agenda has produced incredible economic results in less than two years. This week, the World Economic Forum rated the United States as the most competitive economy among the 140 countries ranked. This is the first time...

    Affirmative action, quotas, and other forms of government-approved and academia-sanctioned racial discrimination do not make everyone “equal” or “diverse,” it just suppresses everyone A social media post captured my attention. A millennial was boasting about a recent home purchase. Nothing out of the ordinary, home ownership is a good thing and people take pride in owning their own place, private property is the bedrock of capitalism and freedom. This millennial was buying in one of the country’s most expensive real estate markets. While boasting about a “privileged” status of people who could afford to buy homes because they had inherited...

    With mainstream and social media as their cheerleaders and with Facebook and Twitter followers as phony as the Fake News they propagate, they are now dictating that you are not allowed to be seen in public as a Republican/Conservative It’s late in the day and a loud and ugly mob mentality is utterly dominating midterm elections. The Protest that was the legacy of ex-President Barack Obama is no longer out in the town park or on the street, it has moved into the restaurants where average people stop for a bite to eat, the gas station where they go to...
  • The Week in Review: A Week of Democrat/Media Narrative Epic Fails

    DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon
    The Campaign Update Week in Review (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Every week in American politics is different. They all have their ebbs and flows, their dramas, their comedies, their pratfalls and their tragedies. Typically, they all have their own narratives, the overriding major story or stories that our fake news media conspire with the Democrat Party to push into the public domain for political advantage. Sometimes, a single narrative dominates the entire week – as happened a few weeks ago with the whole Kavanaugh drama. Most of them end up being ineffective, although a few end up having legs,...

    The London Free Press ^ | October 20, 2018 | The Telegraph
    South Korea’s women have begun to rebel against impossible standards of beauty in a country known as the plastic surgery capital of the world. Women who call themselves “beauty resisters” have been destroying their cosmetics, cutting their hair and denouncing the pressures imposed on them by a patriarchal society which emphasises flawless beauty as the key to career and marital success. The trend, which has spread across social media and has been dubbed the “remove corset” movement, is the latest in a series of feminist initiatives in South Korea since the MeToo campaign began. Lina Bae, a beauty YouTuber, racked...

Only three-minutes long, this little video tells you everything you need to know about the public school system. Please share. ------------------------------------------------------------- I made it 6 years ago. The primary purpose was to test new video software called Xtranormal. You first type your script, then you can have characters move around and speak your words as you see in this video. Quite remarkable. Some of you would enjoy experimenting with it. Unfortunately Xtranormal, which was free, is dormant. Other options are now available but...

    Elizabeth Warren is the gift that keeps on giving. She’s making a good bid to replace Hillary Clinton in that important role. Who can doubt that if/when Warren runs for president, her tribal identity is going to come up as a daily matter, no matter how hard she tries to make it “old news.” I haven’t had this much fun since . . . Tuesday.

    Pretty sure this girl just isn’t right in the head. – Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the middle midget Democrat who is going to represent the Bronx in congress after this election, is back the news for saying something incredibly stupid again. Because of course she is. At a campaign event on Friday, Ms. Cortez, advocated we mobilize our entire economy to fight “global warming” (she doesn’t even know that the scammers want her to call it “climate change” these days) because it is an “existential threat” just like the Nazis. I swear I don’t make this stuff up: “So, when we talk...

    In a packed room in College Hall on Wednesday night, former Governor of Florida Jeb Bush gave his first talk at Penn since being named the second Presidential Practice Professor. Bush addressed the partisan nature in politics today and the lack of dialogue that exists across the aisle, urging conservatives to return to the idea that America is the land of opportunity. The event, co-hosted by the Andrea Mitchell Center for the Study of Democracy and Penn Political Union, focused on the state of American democracy and what Bush calls increased “tribal tendencies” in partisan politics in a time of...

    .... When social media mobs start yowling for blood because they don’t like a joke you told or they’re offended by some common sentiment you utter, the first thought you may have is, “If I apologize, maybe all of this will go away.” Unfortunately, that is not how it works. To the contrary, an apology is taken as an admission of guilt and evidence that their pressure is working. It’s not about getting an apology for these people; it’s about people with meaningless lives getting a sense of accomplishment by punishing you. Don’t give them the satisfaction. The people who...

    Senator Cory Booker (D-N.J.) was blasted on social media for comments he made about Canada being more American than the United States was. Booker was speaking to students at Allen University in South Carolina to help get out the vote for Democrats ahead of the midterm elections. He said that other countries, including Canada, were “out-Americaning” the U.S. by providing cheaper college opportunities. “Other people talking about college debt, you’ve got to be kidding me,” Booker said. “Every country we are competing with is driving down the cost of college,” Booker claimed. “Germany – it cost between zero and four...

    What can hidden "Resistance" leader, former President Barack Obama and his handpicked protege for the 2016 presidential election possibly do to the USA from their D.C. underground activism network? Send a 2,000-and-still-growing march of Hondurans on the U.S.—with a Nov. 6 Midterm Election Day arrival just for sport! The marching Hondurans are marching on America now, because Obama and Clinton planned it that way since as far back as 2009. In trying to take down President Donald Trump, any port will do for activism-crazed Barack Obama and hopelessly embittered- in-defeat Hillary Clinton. "Obama and his then Secretary of State Hillary...

    Like good real estate attracts more money, a strong economy attracts stronger investment. More Promises Made and Promises Kept Every time I start to write about the economy, I worry that I might drill down too deep, because most people don’t care as much about the details of the economy as they care about how much money is in their bank accounts and wallets. I get that, but I think it is important to offer some thoughts on the internals of the economy that may or may not be known to most. As I used to teach my students, it...

    It is President Donald Trump and not “resistance” leader, ex-president Obama who is Making America Great Again For eight long years the mainstream and social media, controlled by his Party, worked to portray Barack Hussein Obama as “the smartest guy in the room”. Obama, of course, was never the smartest guy but only the most devious ‘swiper in the room’. Obsessed with undermining America from lavish “resistance” headquarters within easy walking distance of the White House, Obama must have been tuned in to President Donald Trump’s midterm campaign rallies, the ones drawing millions of viewers, while he could only bring...

He purposely puts up psy-ops articles to help his side. This preamble applies to every gubernatorial election. To streamline the discussion of the gubernatorial races featured in this report please read these following paragraphs as the first part of the report on each race. The Republicans have very wisely nationalized this election so all of their candidates are Donald Trump and all Democrat...

Even better, according to the report in this Washington Times, “The applications were pre-addressed to elections officials, which is likely what left many voters to believe they were receiving an official communication from the...
