MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Sen. Michael Rounds, R-S.D., Christopher Wylie, co-founder, Cambridge Analytica.

STATE OF THE UNION (CNN): Kudlow; Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine.
I’m struggling to locate ABC, NBC and CBS on West Coast Direct TV.
Anybody know the channel numbers?
Right on every score. That’s why we re so lucky to have president Trump. If anyone can stand up to immense pressure and come out even stronger it’s the Donald.
wannnn does need a keeper,hes lost without one.
Not that you need this advice, and I’m not trying to patronize, but...
Always remember your situational awareness, as it is called.
Be cognizant of the nearest exit, the next closest exits, etc. Watch everyone for strange behavior, shouting, or running. Watch for peoples’ belongings, too and where they put them. A bag left behind could be a bomb. Do not get so wrapped up in what your doing that you are totally focused, but save some of your thinking by being alert. Be positive and practice all the time.
So for example, in the quiet of my den typing away right now, I can hear birds singing outside, the fans of my computers (I have like six servers in here), and traffic on the distant highway. Whenever my outside dog barks I always take a look (she’s a good doggo and doesn’t bark at just everything).
Yesterday it was very cold and raining, but I was outside at my veggie garden readjusting my deer fence. I heard a low growl. My brain was thinking, that’s too close and not the same growl as my German shepherd dog, who was tied up on a lead by the house. I turned and found two huge pit bull dogs stepping out of the outside stall of my barn!
I grabbed a nine foot stout bamboo pole and immediately yelled at them but they stood their ground. I had to get on my tractor and chase them down. Anyway, if I wrote that noise off as my dog or ignored it completely, I might have been in trouble!
ALWAYS be aware.
I am confused.
Did I do something wrong?
I did NOT do the Youtube post last week and hey, if it offends anyone that I even do it at all, with a smile on my face I’ll not do another one.
Maybe I’ll stop posting completely. Long as everyone else keeps posting and commenting, I’d be fine with that.
Absolutely correct, but he cannot be left alone in this fight!
We have a duty to stand by him in every way we can.
That’s why I get so angry like when people here started to turn after he had the immigration talk with the Congress people and told them “You bring it I’ll sign it.” When he also said there MUST be a Wall, end to chain migration and the immigrant lottery. It was like, “Didn’t you even listen, knee-jerkers?”
Then again on the omnibus bill. “Hello folks, it was Congress! Save your venom for them. He wasn’t going back up the escalator! Sometimes you have to take defeats and move on to keep fighting.”
Rather than chastise President Trump we should vow to stand with him. When he does something you don’t agree with, say so but let him also know you stand with him nevertheless.
I will bite my lip again this time and vote Republican right down the line, because what President Trump is doing is so important for us all and he won’t get any of it done with Piglosi back in as Speaker. Hate Paul Ryan all you want, but he’s better than Nancy. I do not like my RINOs in Congress but I have to think of the long game:
Survival of America as WE know it.
You're not kidding, Kabar. That appendix of names is a "Who's Who" of Deep State anti-Trumpers--mostly Obama Administration former foreign policy types. "Obscene" is a perfect adjective for this abomination.
Please unconfuse!
I meant it that I’m glad and thankful you do the Youtube stuff. Honestly, I didn’t even notice you did not do it last week.
I hope you can continue, but know everyone needs time off.
The Youtube postings get NO complaints. I meant I told the complainers (see my post # 21) if we here on this thread talk to much and don’t discuss every show, that you will post the Youtubes later so look there.
I only meant to compliment you.
Sound like liberals to me. Do it my way they insist!!!
I will do the YouTube compilation. If You tube is not getting shot up that day.

Elections, even close elections, are the will of the People.
These former Obama, Bush and Clinton “officials” better well understand that.
If we as a People elect Bozo the Clown, it is our sovereign will at play.
When the People elected Obama, I, and the rest of us, had to accept that. Sure we didn’t like it, and thought it was wrong. We have the Constitution to still protect our Rights; they’re not up to a vote. We had every right to politically oppose him and his party, and we did so by giving the House to the opposition in 2010 and the Senate in 2014.
The democrats and former “officials” better take note they are not in charge—nor are the Republicans—but we are. They can rally and meet us at the voting booth but if they think they can impose their will against us unconstitutionally they’ll be met in kind.
Yup!
Rest assured, I admire you greatly.
If I ever have an issue with you it will be presented in a FReepmail—NEVER publically. And saying that, I don’t!
Never heard Wahn whine when the Soetoro’s went on trips or vacations and, at times, brought along 25++ lackies, all needing SS protection and rental housing at taxpayer expense
SCOTUS is just as politicized. Kennedy will probably be the deciding vote. Deep State is using the courts to run our foreign policy. The very fact that a federal judge in Hawaii supported this crap should give us all pause.
See my post #170 and see the names of the amici curiae. Scary stuff.
I must disagree with you on this. The 80/20 rule applies in all things. Even on this thread. The 20% do the work, the thinking, the rest are moochers.
Just the way the world has always worked and always will work
Well, let us start with the Chief Pirate Roberts himself. He who "interprets" the Commerce clause as a TAX clause. Yes, these are the monsters running the country
No, Hell NO. We have been doing this dance for the last Thirty + years, Bush I comes to Mind - Read My Lips.
In my case I will pull a straight R tickets and removed THREE people.
My U.S. Congress RINO (I do not know who I will vote for at this time
My Texas House critter - same in her case
And my County critter
All three are MAJOR big spenders. If that is what they do, Let the Dems do it better. Venezuela here we come. This Frog is boiled
Truer words were never written.
BTW, LOVE your tagline.
You have to realize that if Trump fails, you fail, I fail and the Republic fails—and falls!
All of what you say would be true, but now we stand on a precipice, and one more lurch to the Left will end us.
Yes, I truly believe that.
In my heart of hearts I believe God gave us Trump as the instrument to roll back out national suicide.
The entire Western world is losing its believe in God and going back to Paganism. Let us rail against that.
Not supporting Trump emboldens the RINOs, but supporting him makes them tow the line. I’d rather deal with line towers than pagan democrats!
Well, that killed any potential for credibility right there.
