What’s happening at the New York Times and other outlets is that the young communists are pushing out the older liberals.
Terrible, right? But wait a minute. Who hired those young communists? The liberals.
Nope. Now he fades away. The voters recused him tonight.
He got what he gave ... the voters recused him tonight.

Office of the Press Secretary
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
July 14, 2020
___________________________________________________________
July 14, 2020
Dear Madam Speaker: (Dear Mr. President:)
Pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) and the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), I hereby report I have issued an Executive Order (the “order”) that declares a national emergency with respect to the recent actions taken by the People’s Republic of China to fundamentally undermine Hong Kong’s autonomy. The order further declares that Hong Kong is no longer sufficiently autonomous to justify differential treatment in relation to the People’s Republic of China under the U.S. laws and provisions set forth in the order. The order directs the heads of executive departments and agencies to commence all appropriate actions to carry out the policy of the United States to suspend or eliminate different and preferential treatment for Hong Kong, to the extent permitted by law and in the national security, foreign policy, and economic interest of the United States.
The order blocks the property and interests in property of foreign persons determined by the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, or the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State:
* To be or have been involved, directly or indirectly, in the coercing, arresting, detaining, or imprisoning of individuals under the authority of, or to be or have been responsible for or involved in developing, adopting, or implementing, the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Administrative Region;
* To be responsible for or complicit in, or to have engaged in, directly or indirectly, any of the following:
* actions or policies that undermine democratic processes or institutions in Hong Kong;
* actions or policies that threaten the peace, security, stability, or autonomy of Hong Kong;
* censorship or other activities with respect to Hong Kong that prohibit, limit, or penalize the exercise of freedom of expression or assembly by citizens of Hong Kong, or that limit access to free and independent print, online or broadcast media; or
* the extrajudicial rendition, arbitrary detention, or torture of any person in Hong Kong or other gross violations of internationally recognized human rights or serious human rights abuse in Hong Kong;
* To be or have been a leader or official of:
* an entity, including any government entity, that has engaged in, or whose members have engaged in, any of the activities described above; or
* an entity whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order.
* To have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of, any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this section;
* To be owned or controlled by, or to have acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this section; or
* To be a member of the board of directors or a senior executive officer of any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this section.
The order also delegates to the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, the authority to take such actions, including adopting rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to the President by IEEPA as may be necessary to implement the order.
Under section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (8 U.S.C. 1182(f)), the order also suspends the unrestricted immigrant and nonimmigrant entry into the United States of aliens determined to meet one or more of the criteria above for the blocking of property and interests in property, and their immediate family members, as well as aliens determined by the Secretary of State to be employed by, or acting as an agent of, such aliens determined to meet the criteria.
I am enclosing a copy of the order I have issued.
Sincerely,
DONALD J. TRUMP

We fought a good fight and the people of Alabama have spoken. So many people have helped me in this campaign and over the years, they love this state and I love them.
I could not have done it without the loving support of my family – my wife Mary, my daughters Mary Abigail and Ruth, and my son Sam, and all of my ten grandchildren. I am eternally grateful for your sacrifices and support.
I want to congratulate Tommy Tuberville on his victory tonight. He is our Republican nominee. We must all stand behind him in November.
Now more than ever, we need to stand up for the Rule of Law, our Constitution, and our great and glorious country.
We must not cede our nation to the mob or globalist forces. We have borders, laws, and history that must be defended.
The Republican Party must defend the real interests of the American worker, and not be co-opted by special interests on Trade, Immigration, and China. If we fail to do that, we will fail as a Party.
Ours is a state of honorable, decent, conservative, Republican people. Doug Jones is on the other side, he’s a foot soldier in the ambitious army of
@SenSchumer
. Plain & simple,
@DougJones
cannot use Alabama as a platform to advance such an agenda. The stakes are extremely high.
Although this chapter is closed, we all must continue to stand up for what’s right – in the right way.
Alabama IS worth fighting for, and America IS worth fighting for.

Got a hunch that’s not the last we’ll hear from Mister Sessions.
Establishment Dems are going to lose their minds shortly. Very shortly. Buckle up

HM. One comment; “ RBG”
I wonder if the president has someone lined up in case RBG does “retire”. Hopefully someone better than Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, who seems to be craving some acceptance and approval from the libs.
He will take a name off “the list “. Each will try to prove their independence and do as little damage as possible.
Breakfast looks delicious. Have critters fed. I’m next. Bacon and an egg. Still watching carbs.
Good morning, lysie!
Pannacakes and BACON—what is not to like?!
Thank you!
Good news,pax!
Hope you get a good sleep—you deserve it!
