VIDEO Who could have believed even in the recent past that one day a major American city such as Los Angeles would be afflicted by the threat of typhus and bubonic plague? Those diseases, which were associated with medieval times, now threaten the people of Los Angeles. So what is the major concern of its mayor? To oppose Donald Trump by openly opposing enforcement of immigration laws via its "sanctuary city" policy. No wonder there is a recall petition for Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti who has FAILED in his most basic duty of protecting the citizens of that city.

Apparently, an unnamed senior Dem aide is texting around a photo of a Goomba puppet from the video game Mario Bros. to slam Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as a “puppet” of “elitist white liberals”:

Let me posit this hypothesis, liberalism is the new secular Puritanism. Instead of believing in a just and almighty God they believe in government. Instead of basing their beliefs and religion on the Bible they base it on their own – ever expanding – belief system: the principles of government. The Puritan ideal of living a life of pious, consecrated actions translates for the new Puritans to insisting that YOU live a pious life, consecrated to THEIR principles. Because you were born too stupid to determine what’s best for you. Hence the need for social engineering; here’s an example of...

Historically, economic prosperity has carried incumbent presidents to reelection. After two-and-a-half years of the Trump Administration the US economy appears very prosperous. GDP is expanding at a rate that former President Obama insisted would never be seen again. Stock prices are reaching record highs. Unemployment is at historic lows. Wages are rising. The task of Democrats seeking to persuade voters to unseat Trump would seem to be daunting. Nevertheless, several of them are trying out arguments against the Trump economic gains. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (Mass) played the envy card, pointing out that "a 3% gain on a billion dollar income...

The Trump administration on Friday asked the Supreme Court to lift a freeze on Pentagon money it wants to use to build sections of a border wall with Mexico. Two lower courts have ruled against the administration in a lawsuit over the funding. Last week, a divided three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco kept in place a lower court ruling preventing the government from tapping Defense Department counterdrug money to build high-priority sections of wall in Arizona, California and New Mexico. At stake in the case is billions of dollars that would allow...

Antifa is a violent group of domestic terrorists that like to assault people for their political beliefs. Many conservatives and notable journalists have been attacked during Antifa riots. The group believes they are fighting fascism in America. This is not the case, Antifa is fighting non-existent American fascism by turning themselves into fascists. Fascism is a political structure headed by a dictator, that puts race and nationality above individual behavior. Fascists also believe it is moral to suppress the opposition by using force. Along with that, they believe in controlling social structure and the economy. The most recent and notable...

Friday night entertainment BUMP. Classic from Metallica.

My dear friend's daughter was just crowned Miss Puerto Rico last month and she'll be participating in the Miss Universe Pageant in December. All we know is that the pageant is in December - we don't know the date nor the location. Some say it'll be in Las Vegas or South Korea. This is a total lack of planning and organization. When Trump was head of the Miss Universe Organization, a few Puerto Ricans won the crown under his watch, so we got to know him well in the beauty pageant world because he came down to the island with...

How about instead of giving D.C. statehood, we just allow them to annex Montgomery and PG Counties MD and Fairfax County VA. These three counties surround D.C.. D.C. gets some more power, which is all they want anyway, and the DPRM and VA get to shed some commie territory (though FFX is not as extreme as the other two, at least not yet).

We all know Facebook is anti-Conservative, and they are doing a variety of underhanded things to remove Conservative voices from their "unbiased" platform. Well, they got me a couple of weeks ago --- in a new and interesting way. One of my totally apolitical posts on my Business Facebook page "went viral" to my surprise. Yes, I post political messages all the time on my Political page, that started out as my Campaign page in 2012. The viral post was on a different Business page, and about a cat. So, I get this message from Facebook: "You can't publish as...

The democrat party has become the party of Hamas. Bill Clinton, as have all recent Presidents, tried to his best to negotiate a Middle East peace but failed. Nearly a year after he failed to achieve a deal at Camp David, former president Bill Clinton gave vent to his frustrations this week over the collapse of peace in the Mideast. And Clinton directed his ire at one man: Yasir Arafat. On Tuesday night, Clinton told guests at a party at the Manhattan apartment of former U.N. ambassador Richard Holbrooke and his wife, writer Kati Marton, that Arafat called to bid...

VIDEO This video reveals how YouTube is shadow banning vidos it wants to suppress by not allowing them to show up in their search engine. As you will see, even when the search is filtered according to UPLOAD DATE, an objective criteria, YouTube will often refuse to allow many videos to appear in the search. I provide the very specific example of a video I uploaded on July 11 about Hunter Biden yet when you do a search according to upload date, it DOES NOT APPEAR. Next week, the Senate Subcommittee on the Constitution, chaired by Senator Ted Cruz, is...

SACRAMENTO, CA—California is offering free healthcare to illegal immigrants, once again becoming the first state in the nation to enact a wacky proposal that sounds like the right's satire of the left and not an actual policy. But Governor Gavin Newsom was quickly forced to clarify that the free healthcare offer only applies to immigrants who've made it safely out of the womb. Immigrants who are still in the womb are still subject to killing at a moment's notice. "We wanted to do the compassionate thing here," Newsom said at a press conference. "We have to pay for the healthcare...

After feedback from the field, Hornady took another stab at its DGX and gave it a bonded core, creating a bullet that ‘is both sound and stout, and represents a great value for any hunter.’ Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you will have noticed the number of Hornady bullets that have been released over the last decade or so. The ELD-X, the ELD Match, the pair of the DGS (Dangerous Game Solid) and DGX (Dangerous Game eXpanding), and the all-new A-Tip match bullet are just a few. Regarding cartridge development and revitalization, Hornady has been been instrumental in...

Trump’s goal with the census question was the same as with his 4th of July celebration announcement. Get Democrats to strongly oppose a popular and common sense idea. With the issue of whether or not to include a question about citizenship on the census survey now seemingly tabled, it’s a good time to look once again at how Trump trolled Democrats into publicly opposing something that most people find to be simple common sense. But first, let’s go back a few days to the July 4th holiday because Trump used almost the same technique to great effect. Before the July...

The upcoming Meuller fiasco is going to be interesting. Trump and his lawyers have pointed out the "Conflicts of interest" with Meuller taking the SC job. Media isn't interested. This seems to be a huge and serious problem. Now Dershowitz is involved with Epstein. He has represented JE in the past. He was listed as a lawyers for the victims in the previous case(ongoing). Now he is getting free air time to spin his story and block for BJC. When will someone tackle these problems? Making tons of money which is not accounted for, also!

(snip) Booker also said Trump has created a "fear-based culture" that made the media write about migrant caravan as if they were an existential threat to the United States. The Senator said ICE should be prioritized for "real challenges to our public safety" and not raids that take children away from their parents. "Anderson, this is somebody who is trying to drive within this great country a fear-based culture," Booker told the host. "He tried to tell us we should be terrified about migrants coming up from the south, to the point that he had the media writing about a...

Rep. Clay went on to say “I find it juvenile, their tactics, and I find their ignorance to be beyond belief about American history…how dare they try to play the race card at this point, it shows you the weakness of their arguments.”Why, Rep. Clay sounds like a Republican. And then there’s this:The creators of “women must be believed” #Metoo are now shocked and offended that a candidate is banning a female journalist from “shadowing” him. The journalist whose request to accompany the candidate was rejected immediately accused Foster of sexism, thus squaring the circle as only the left can...
