“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Galatians 5:1
Happy Birthday America and thank you George Washington! It has been over a decade since America could actually celebrate its birthday and not feel guilty about it. Whether it was protesting the war or the eight years of Obama trashing this Country one speech after another we finally have someone in office who loves America and what she stands for. America has been the beacon of freedom in a world of dictators and despots who oppress their people in economic and actual slavery and now reflecting those freedoms for all to tweet.
The America haters on the left are catatonic as their latest ACME Russian Rocket is staring them right in their faces. They loved shackling and enslaving Americans with draconian laws and regulations meant to force people into indentured servants of the state. They did everything in the gummit’s vast array to hold America down as the main oppressor in the world when in reality they were the Monarchs and now are out of power.
This Independence Day the oppressors are being oppressed as the regular folks ignore their childish outbursts while enjoying the freedoms as one regulation after another are being eliminated. Americans are beginning to breath the cool air of freedom and prosperity as the Three Pillars of Propaganda (Academia, media and the DNC) are collapsing into the Ash Heap of Histoir.
Academia is seeing all of their anti-American theories being destroyed by this Administration’s proclamations of not following their doomsday predictions. Chief among them is the elimination of the Climate Change Accord and ignoring draconian studies wanting to stop fracking and the Keystone pipeline as well as the expansion of coal energy. All of these fake studies were intended to stop industrial expansion and relegate the average American to serf status for the state with high energy costs, good little Marxists all.
We are watching the Academic institutions turn into war zones as these professors lose their High Priest status and ignored by the very people who gave them their power. There is no longer a Holy alliance between the professors and gummit since their conduit the DNC is out of power and developer Trump is one of those who were handcuffed by those theories Academia invented and their gumment enforced. Their extended power is gone so they are left to police what can and cannot be said in their campus fifedoms so they are stopping any conflicting thought on campus and only allowing agreeing speech while disallowing any thoughts they deem hate. You just have to love how they are the last sanctuaries on the planet who believe communism works in spite of 200 million graves around the world proving otherwise. If you add our 60 million abortions you see the bones of Marxism.
We have never seen the media in this level of meltdown in our lives. Sure it was its usual traitorous self during the Bush administration and attempted to oust Reagan over Iran Contra, but this is an entirely new level these maniacs have gone to. They rant into their hate speech every time they go off script showing their absolute contempt and vitrial they have for President Trump which makes him want to throw a gallon of gasoline on their fire every few days and watching for the explosion.
This is not only a hatred for the President it is a pure hatred for the patriotic Americans who voted him in and those Tea Party nutcases who love this Country. The media all hate America and the freedom it represents. They are all cultists who are also High Priests and enjoy the fruits both monetarily and status wise as they are able to sit with the very highest officials in the land. Theirs is the highest positions in their church and rub elbows with the other High Priests who weld the power and money which fruits they enjoy and now it is crumbling as people mock and laugh at their canned phrases and clichés of nonsense. They have become the Wiley Coyotes of the national stage as Americans laugh at their one ACME plan after another blow up in their smug nip and tucked faces. At this point they are making old Wiley look like a genius as Trump tweet, tweets.
The poor DNC, having to push a theory that they actually consider an enemy of America an enemy. Talk about getting out of your comfort zone as they have embraced every enemy America has had starting with the Soviet Union and falling in love with China, Viet Nam, Laos, North Korea, Gorbechez, Al Queda, Mooselimb Brotherhood and every America hating group under the sun and now are outraged Trump had people talking to Russian
Ambassadors. Nobody with half a brain is buying it which is why it is only selling in Havana on the Hudson and Moscow on the Potomac. That ACME exploding cigar has gone out and Wiley Coyote News Network is putting it in his mouth to see what is wrong.
The Three Pillars are crumbling which bodes well for freedom. Academia needs to be rebuilt where all ideas have equal value on campus. How can you claim to have free thought when over fifty percent is not allowed? Guess some thoughts are more freer than others. These have become little dictatorships of thought where only correct think is allowed and every other thought will be met with violence and intimidation. Sounds a lot like communist China and Cuba where dissention is met with a gulag or a pock filled brick wall. Until conservative professors and all forms of thought are welcome they are not education but simply communist indoctrination facilities.
The media is in even worse condition. You are seeing such pure and utter melting heads as their practiced clichés and bumper sticker talking points are not working. Again you have purity of thought and only Democrats are allowed to have positions of power since it has become nothing more than a bullhorn for the DNC. Once again you need a variety of opinions if you want to claim you are reporting the news rather than indoctrinating your viewers. If your viewers want to be indoctrinated by one slant or another it is one thing, but there needs to be stations which report both sides of the story which require newsmen who come from the Conservative side as well as the Liberal. They have lost their power and are now like raving maniacs in the town square lashing out at anything and everything while screaming their droll.
These two pillars held up the DNC and we are perhaps seeing it fall into the abyss. The people are having the scales fall off their eyes seeing how they have not been for them, but for the worldwide gummit to enslave Americans. This was not a surprise to those watching, but for the hardworking Bluedog Democrats this was a shock and now they are getting a taste of what could be if the gummit was for them rather than against. They are witnessing a President who loves America and the flag. Even though they are being beaten down for supporting Trump when you get them alone where they won’t be reported to the Three Pillars they will tell you how much they appreciate what he is doing and expect so much more. This is devastation for the DNC in the upcoming elections as they whistle past the gallows.
The Three Pillars have not seen a threat to their way of life since Reagan and even he did not have the freedom to tweet any time he wanted. President Trump has made America more free and unleashed more economic power than any President since Wilson. If he can repeal Obamacare and get a tax-cut bill through America will see an economic boom not felt since the Roaring 20’s as countries around the world come to the safest place to do business. We are witnessing the death shakes of the Three Pillars and that makes for a great Independence Day, Happy 4th of July.
Pray America woke

Thanks for thread A.B. Loser Kasick will be a pain in the a$$ throughout the remainder of his lame duck Governorship (ends in 2018) as he preps for 2020. He is the new McCain.
Rand Paul is different at best.
But IMHO, he’s just one of a number of bozos keeping the Presidents bill from being passed.
Morning all and happy Fourth of July week from the fabulous Fla. Keys where every tourist in the world is about to clog our highway one more time.
There’s yer dam ten Larri.
And i'm enjoying every bit of it. Thank God for President Trump!
Circa has a brilliant piece about an FBI agent Robyn Gritz who got tired of being savaged because she was a female in a near all male agency the FBI.
Gritz is a female agent who has proven herself in every way possible in the field where it counts. In addition she has served on inter-agency task forces so other agents in other agencies know who she is as well.
She has a stellar rep as an A1 agent.Therefore when she filed a discrimination suit against some higher ups and Mccabe it got some attention. McCabe went after her immediately questioning her sanity and anything else he could make up out of thin air.
Seems Gen. Flynn came to her aid and he too was targeted for destruction by McCabe.Seems that's where the Russian BS story began since they needed something they could fake that would have legs and the Russia theme seemed like a winner.
So far it has been.
Problem for McCabe currently is that there are three separate investigations all looking into his actions and hopefully the Ax will fall soon.
The FBI needs Christopher Wray in as its head and soon.
And don't think the Left-leaning technology companies are immune. President Trump may trot out this soon-to-be infamous picture, dated February 2011:
Trump will ask what was discussed at that dinner with prominent technology CEO's and was there a gentlemen's agreement to essentially censor the political Right over the public Internet with President Obama's approval, which would put several prominent technology companies liable in a First Amendment free speech lawsuit....
You can’t count!
Sharyl on in 4 minutes.
Deep state toasting their hate of America one more time.
I think she is on at 9:30am Eastern....
Observation...Lee and Kasich were sent in to do Ryan’s and McConnell and McCain’s dirty work this morning...they think they are on break already, and I suspect they think they won this healthcare, tax, wall, and any other debates with Trump.
I hope Trump has some tricks up his sleeve.
Trump will ask what was discussed at that dinner with prominent technology CEO’s and was there a gentlemen’s agreement to essentially censor the political Right over the public Internet with President Obama’s approval, which would put several prominent technology companies liable in a First Amendment free speech lawsuit.... .
...
Astutely put...he should ask, not sure if he will ask.
Happy 4th of July all Freepers!
Morning AB, All. As always, thank you AB for doing this thread so reliably and keeping the peace with gentle thread policing. Thank you Bray for weekly written wisdom, Thank all yon contributors for excellent commentary to flesh it all out.
Below are the words from my daily political diary. It is quite long so scroll on by if not interested. But do stay around and add your commentary and point of view to the thread.
Tuesday Date-6/27/17
And folks, this minimum wage is not helping the people it’s supposed to help? $15.00 an hour?
I think this is in California but give it time and we’ll lay off all those just entering the work force who are hardly worth $15 an hour and have no job they’re qualified for.
Mark Levin has a new book out and you’d have to be dead and buried in Asia not to have heard him out and about everywhere.
It’s now number one on Amazon so kudos to Mark. If he sends me a copy I’ll do a review of it. I will take a Kindle copy.
Wednesday Date-6/28/17
White House Meets over Health care vote; vote now delayed until after July 4 2017 recess.
There was a meeting of all the senators yesterday and nothing much happened.
Did y’all hear what the lovely, sparkling and very clear speaking Collins woman said? She said Trump was too new at legislative workings and he would need more practice.
She said this publicly.
The Bitch!!!!!!
She could have gossiped with other GOPe types but no, she has to go out in public and lambaste her party’s leader, the President of the United States.
Hateful woman. If she was on fire I wouldn’t pee on her to put it out.
So after the July 4 recess a new health care bill will be passed.
If it doesn’t the base out here is going to be mad….MAD I TELL YOU!
Thursday Date-6/29/17
The REAL Mike Flynn story
For if we’ve learned nothing from all this Russia nonsense it’s that the FBI has more power over us than we ever knew. And they lie and deal with politicians and they have strippers come visit when they are out of town guarding the President.
Zeros. The FBI is now filled with zeros as everything else of value has been destroyed by the Democratic administrations before.
So the Assistant Director of FBI, the guy helping silly and stupid Comey lie and deceive and have queasy stomach, McCabe.
McCabe’s wife was running for Governor of Virginia and she received lots of donations from Terry McAuliffe’s PAC.
Not that the FBI folk mingle in politics, perish the though.
So there was a female FBI agent who claimed she was discriminated against based on gender. Mike Flynn wrote her a hearty endorsement, describing what a loyal worker she was and how much he loved having her on his team.
Well this made MCCabe mad as he was one of the defendants in her suit. So the very decent, smiling and fair FBI decided to rig it up so President Trump would have to fire him.
The very fine, intelligent, wonderful, fair, non-political…
…..LIARS AND DECEIVERS OF THE FBI!
Bear in mind that Flynn did not endorse the woman’s lawsuit. He simply shared good words of his experience with her but do not make the FBI mad folks.
For they will get you. They will get you.
Friday Date-6/30/17
Donald’s tweets sending the libs to the moon.
First, they found the body of a dead woman in Joe Scarborough’s office, did you know that? I don’t think this fact is repeated nearly enough and for sure Mika and Joe would be talking about it if they found a dead woman in President Trump’s office.
Second, I cannot stand this Mika and Joe morning people, they are mean, ugly and stupid.
So Trump had enough with those two and their bratty childish behavior, calling the president a thug, thief, pervert….on and on and on and meanwhile Bill Clinton merrily seduced young interns in our oval office and the libs said very little about this.
I love Trump’s tweets, let us be clear about that. Sure he tweets stuff maybe not as glib as we’d like at times, but I love how he gives the media the finger and talks directly to the public.
I do wish Trump would stop with the women bleeding stuff. He’s talking about having a period, we are not stupid. And women do have periods every month, we know that, but only women have periods out of the two sexes and Trump using that as an insult kind of insults all women.
Back in the day when I was a woman’s libber, not that I am proud of this, I would have organized marches and rallies against Trump.
Trump’s tweet about the darlings of MSNBC told a tale about two crap turds who demanded the right to stay at Mar-A-Lago even though they act like they hate the man.
I do not blame Trump for fighting back. One of the people I most disliked on this planet was George Dubya Bush, who crossed his arms and in his terror and fear, never fought back.
Said he was too noble, that the presidency was above that.
No it’s not.
Joe Scarborough and Mika Facelift, two of the most despicable people on this planet.
Delaware and the joke of the prevailing wage.
So a candidate for the Governor of Virginia says on Fox news this morning that Virginia is below every state in economic growth except Delaware.
Delaware is, of course, much smaller than Virginia but the fact does show how terrible Delaware is doing economically.
Part of the problem, a BIG part of the problem, is this prevailing economic wage things.
For the politicians in Delaware are supported greatly by the unions and they need to do a quid pro quo, no?
Below a table I copied from a GOP legislators email.
Here are Delaware’s prevailing wages for several common occupations typically associated with the construction industry.
Occupation Hourly* Annual**
Painters $48.47 $100,818
Carpenters $53.81 $111,925
Laborers $44.70 $ 92,976
Electricians $66.85 $139,048
Bricklayers $51.99 $108,139
Plumbers $51.48 $107,078
* Hourly wages are for the category of “building construction” for projects located in Kent County using the current - March 2017 - Delaware Division of Industrial Affairs posted prevailing wage scale. Click here to view source.
** The annual earnings assume a 40-hour work week for 52 weeks of the year (2,080 hours total)
According to the most recent data for Delaware (May, 2016) from the U.S. Dept. of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, here is a sampling of the median hourly wages for several common occupations typically associated with the construction industry:
Occupation*** Hourly**** Annual
Painters $18.56 $38,694
Carpenters $21.45 $44,616
Laborers $16.57 $34,466
Electricians $26.17 $54,434
Brick masons $26.82 $55,786
Plumbers $26.98 $56,118
*** BLS “Construction and Extraction Occupations” (47-0000)
**** hourly wage is the median (midpoint) for this occupatio
So in Delaware painters earn $48.47 and hour but everywhere else they make $18.56 an hour? Same with all the other building trade occupations, what Delaware must pay to build schools and government buildings.
Schools where they don’t even want to teach cursive.
Seriously folks, this is allowed to go on and nobody says anything? I know the Delaware Republicans are on it, this is where I copied this information. Delaware Republicans, all two of them.
It’s also probably why Delaware is the lowest in economic growth in the country, you think?
I think you’re right about Rand Paul.
He acts all noble and righteous but he’s not more than another hack looking to overshadow the President.
He gripes me to no end.
Get outta here RG.
The tourists can’t possibly be clogging your highways cause they’re up here clogging ours.
Took me 25 minutes TO GET OUT OF A WAWA PARKING LOT yesterday!!!
And if I ever get a chance I am going to stop one of those tourist-burgers and ask them WHERE YOU COME FROM YOU’RE ALLOWED TO BLOCK INTERSECTIONS???????
Cause they got to get through and one shitty vehicle blocks cars from going any of four ways. If this happens to me and I’m blocked I put my hand on that horn and do not let up. The people in the car blocking the intersection go nuts, doing everything to move.
Maybe they should wait until they know they can make it to the other side before entering the intersection, you think?
When are they going to ask Joe and his Ho how long have they been cheating on their families? Everyone acts like they are Romeo and Juliette and they are ugly cheaters fishing off the company dock.
