Over the weekend Donald Trump tweeted some criticism of the Hate America "Squad." It was immediately and deliberately delivered as fake news, even by Drudge Get out of USA, Trump tells congresswomen!The AP began the reported this way: Leave the US, Trump tells liberal congresswomen of colorStarkly injecting race into his criticism of liberal Democrats, President Donald Trump said Sunday that four congresswomen of color should go back to the “broken and crime infested” countries they came from, ignoring the fact that all of the women are American citizens and three were born in the U.S. His attack drew a...

Please stop raising your hands in unison to provide answers to questions that might destroy whatever chance you might have to win the 2020 presidential election. That is the big worry of Washington Post columnist E.J. Dionne. And he is right. Answering affirmatively by raising your hand to the question of if you approve of giving health care to illegals or decriminalizing the unauthorized crossing of the border is pretty much a deal killer for the vast majority of American voters. Those raising their hands might get a warm, fuzzy feeling as well as the approval of the leftwing of...

I need advice on the Program Campfire for writers. Is it compatible with Apache Open Office? And is it any good for organizing data for a book?

I want to say this before I start off: I have no problem with a person’s sexual orientation or a person’s want or need for sexual experimentation. Now with that said, these boys are the reason why we need to stop claiming that black children don’t need their fathers…these little boys who look like any little girl you find out in the neighborhood. The black race has become an androgynous race. The black race looks like the 80s. You don’t know who is what. The women look like men, the men look like women…black women, you have failed.” — Atlanta...

If ever there was a sick society, it is Britain. Eaten from the inside first by Marxism, which collapsed its faith, families and traditions, the nation was then beset by massive Islamic immigration, which introduced new predators into the decaying socialist ecosystem, some of whom would target the weak, English girls, in new and horrific ways. These young girls, who, in this already broken society...

Hawaii Gov. David Ige signed two new pieces of gun control legislation seven days ago, severely restricting the rights of thousands of travelers entering the state with firearms and imposing potential gun consifactions without due process. Senate Bill 600 effectively raises the minimum age to transport a firearm into the state to the age of 21. This legislation discriminates against lawful, adult Americans who may otherwise travel to the state for the purposes of hunting, target competition, or even relocation. Speaking of relocation, the state of Hawaii plays host to more than 36,000 U.S. service members who currently live and...

Beto O’Rourke will report raising about $3.6 million from April through June, a startlingly small sum for a candidate whose presidential campaign once appeared ascendant and who raised massive amounts of money for his 2018 Senate race. The total, which O'Rourke's campaign will send to supporters tonight in an email, is less than half the $9.4 million O’Rourke raised in the first quarter, and well below the $6.1 million O'Rourke raised in the 24 hours after he announced his presidential campaign in March, which raised early expectations for his campaign.

The growing ranks of homeless persons and the continued invasion of our country by millions of illegal immigrants have generated a severe shortage of housing across the US. The editors of the New York Times have offered an "outside-the-box" solution that "would tap into the housing surplus currently being squandered by archaic attitudes toward property rights." The editors start off by pointing out that "as a general rule, most Americans have more house than they need. What we are suggesting is that the appropriate public policy could put this surplus to more efficient use by requisitioning this space for the...

President Trump has refused to walk back his racist tweets targeting a group of Democratic congresswomen of color in part because he believes his supporters will stand by him. CBS News' Ed O'Keefe spoke to a number of Trump supporters on Monday who say they do. "I know some people don't like his tweets and they think he's crass. I -- that's why I voted for him," said retired businesswoman Mary Lou Kohlhofer. Another supporter, Doug Thomas, said, "It's unfortunate he had to do it the way he had to do it… It's really the only way he can to...

VIDEO Norah O'Donnell debuted as the anchor of the CBS Evening News on July 15 and, of course, her broadcast was chock full of the utterly predictable attacks upon President Donald Trump. In addition, she dished up gobs of nausea by invoking the name of Edward R. Murrow to go to Level 10 mode of extreme smugness and to imply that she will be using television as a "weapon" to continue attacking Trump. Note: My running commentary on these brief clips provides added value thus constituting fair use plus I've had all my shots. Therefore no need to go thru...

Whether you Write about it, Record it or Photograph it, Documenting your Adventures Helps you Cherish them all the more. The bear’s wet hide and piercing eyes are still burned into my memory. The way he rushed us only to stop just a few feet away is a constant reminder of how close we really came to having a "big" problem. Then there was the way he tore our raft apart the night before, leaving ragged pieces of rubber scattered on the gravel bar in front of our camp. What great memories of an incredible hunt on the Wulik River!...

“IF you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream - and not make dreams your master; If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and...

Why could the Pigrims, Puritans, Founding Fathers, and a host of others carve out a nation and lay the foundation for the greatest nation ever known to humanity? If migrants, machismo or no machismo, can accomplish just about anything they set their minds to, why can't they seem to harness the abundance of natural resources, minerals, etc, found all over Africa and throughout Central and South America, and create thriving societies? Why could the Founding Fathers throw off the then most powerful military in the world but migrants cannot seem to throw off the corrupt governments they are said to...

The Broad Squad took to the podium yesterday to call President Trump a white nationalist, demand his impeachment, denounce the holding of illegal aliens at our border (presumably because President Trump is a white nationalist), demand the children be let “out of their cages,” and - did I mention - President Trump’s impeachment? Otherwise they seemed to be there simply to display their individual and collective awesomeness. Presumptuously speaking for the United States of America the 4 women of color (although only 2 of them technically are), 2 Muslims (one head-wrapped, 1 not), 1 social media star from Westchester by...

It seems it should be the opposite, that Mozart should be grafted onto Bach. But in this instance, I can’t hear any player of the Gigue from Bach’s French Suite No. 5, playing it with any vision of how it should sound, so fast that they just seem to want to get through it so their teachers, who assigned them the piece, will get off their backs. (It seems like they all hate the piece, as if they’re escaping from hell while being dished out a dose of castor oil.) My vision is for the French Suite No. 5 Gigue to...

Things Jordan Peterson is wrong about: 1, gnostic views of Christ (his views seem to imply he doubts Jesus’ divinity but maybe I am wrong) 2. His belief that there is a place for the left in politics and that we would have too rigid hierarchical structures without the left. I see no problem with long term meritocracy and the left’s rejection of freedom is bad. He discusses this in depth on the Joe Rogan podcasts. 3. His lack of understanding of present day right wing thought - he seems to think it is authoritarian in nature. Right wing thought...

There is an effort being waged – by politicians, media, and pop culture figures – to convince Americans that we should feel sorry for the illegal aliens on our southern border. Now, in one way, this is unnecessary, because we already do. As individuals, American are famously generous and compassionate; American citizens give more to charities, both at home and abroad, than the citizens of any other country. If anything, the effort is offensive, because it gives the impression that we don’t already feel sorry for them, when we most certainly do. We don’t need to be convinced to shed...

How do you become “dangerous”? Writer and Portland-based podcaster Nancy Rommelmann would have thought she was the last person to answer that question — until she publicly dared to raise some questions about the #MeToo movement. Then her life suddenly changed and she became public enemy number one. She tells her astonishing story — what happened and why — in this compelling video.

Alienating blue-collar whites is a sure way to keep losing. One of the laws of gravity in American politics is that the opposition party gains ground in the midterm elections, so the Democrats should be a lock to win control of at least the House of Representatives in November, requiring a net gain of 23 seats. Then again, it’s hard to say what rules still apply after Trump’s win. Maybe the slate’s been wiped clean and we’re starting from scratch again. While there are plenty of signs that the Democrats can fulfill historical expectations four months from now, a recent...
