A woman named Lizz Adams from Los Angeles, CA, sparked a debate about dating short and tall guys when she posted a photo of her “king” of a husband who is just 5’5” (165 cm), while she towers over him in the pic.

Music from South Africa fits the moment we find ourselves in this weekend and so Hugh Masakela and Miriam Makeba followed by Four Jacks and a Jill who all contributed to the popular music scene in the late 1960's. South Africa was the place where around the turn of the 20th Century the first institutions known as "concentration camps" were established by the once mighty British Empire. According to Wikipedia some 26-thousand white South Africans 14-thousand black South Africans died in these places.

.... The SPLC did their best to depict Mr. Miller as a wicked racist that pushes white supremacist propaganda unto giddy, unsuspecting journalists. Since they were able to publish these nefarious claims next to Stephen Miller’s name without consequence, the ante is up and at least 80 Democrat Representatives have lobbied together to call for his termination. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez quickly started a petition to have Miller fired which as of now, claims to have 20,000 signatures. ...It is impossible for anybody to actually quote Stephen Miller and prove that’s he supports white nationalist ideology, a task that would be...

Extreme Concentration of Ownership in the United States The Oligarch Take over of Healthcare and Big Pharma A close-knit oligarchy controls all major corporations. Institutional investors like BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street, Fidelity, and JP Morgan, now own 80% of all stock in S&P 500 listed companies.

On Tuesday's New Day, co-host Alisyn Camerota melodramatically mused as to why ex-FBI lawyer Lisa Page didn't speak out before, given "what she has lived with" due to President Trump's comments about her. CNN commentator Asha Rangappa, a former FBI agent, responded: "It goes to how civil servants . . . really have a culture of being apolitical, of not trying to get into partisan fights or in the crosshairs. It's not in their DNA."Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Shot: Bloomberg: Darned right we need to tax the poor. —Jazz Shaw, Hot Air, Friday. Chaser: “The press went with it without explaining that it was an April Fool’s joke. Patsy Schroeder referenced it on the floor of the House of Representatives, a bunch of other Democrat and liberals. By the way, the condition of the poor has vastly improved since the tax the poor update. That was April 1st, 1991, by the way.” —“20th Anniversary Flashback: Rush Demands We Tax the Poor,” Rush Limbaugh.com, July 31, 2008.

As beloved as they were, Lincoln and Reagan are long gone. But President Trump—the last man standing—is still here fighting to put America and its people first If Ronald Reagan were running in the 2020 presidential election, he’d be swiftly elected, then more than swiftly, impeached. Ditto for Abraham Lincoln, other worthy leaders and anyone—or any thing—standing in the Democrats’ way.

Adam Schiff is helping the very person he wants to destroy, President Trump, with such a misguided and failed mission Since the beginning of the Ringside Politics TV and radio shows, we have enjoyed an annual Thanksgiving tradition of awarding our “Turkey of the Year” to recognize individuals who distinguished themselves in a particularly foolish way. It seems appropriate since turkeys are commonly regarded as one of the most dim-witted animals on the planet.

Marxist takeover strategy that, left unchallenged, will alter the country forever I’m aware that not every Millennial is a nut job. There are a multitude serving our country overseas, in responsible positions, right here, helping to right the ship of state, and large numbers of millennials just working by the rules to make a life for themselves. But, we are in trouble, big trouble, and we had better deal with it. Millennials were born between 1981 - 1996. That makes them between 23 and 38 years old. They have been well indoctrinated in the Marxist religion disguised as liberalism since...

Every time AOC opens her mouth to speak, more pearls of communist wisdom roll out onto the floor. They spread in all corners of the country and disappear, never to be found again. Her socialist ardent supporters just hear “free, free, free for all.” The New Green Deal proposed by radicals in Congress brought back best-forgotten memories of my life under the “paradise of socialism.” I am too old to live under socialism because I like simple luxuries like soap, detergent, toilet paper, electricity, food, clean water, and comfortable shoes, and being able to express my opinion in public without...

Reading MAD is one thing, allowing yourself to live in it is quite another I admit, I occasionally read Mad magazine as a kid. Every feature in it was strange and weird. I was transported to a parallel world of the absurd, the nonsensical. That was, I suppose, part of the attraction. I know I didn’t join their ranks because, in spite of the entertainment value, I still, even now, think it was weird. Not so for millions of others. I scan about 50 or 60 news articles a week, mostly to keep in touch with what is going on...

Deep State Playbook: Comparing Plamegate and Russiagate The only “Mueller Report” that matters was not written by Robert Mueller III. It’s written about him, and his co-conspirators. Long before the Russiagate hoax began, the authors examined the Special Counsel methods of then FBI director Robert Mueller, former Deputy Attorney General James Comey, and once U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald, before and during Plamegate. We found that all three acted with an intent to serve and protect the Deep State.

Mega Thanks to greasy-chinned Rep. Steve Cohen for coming came up with the best slogan of them all for Democrats in the 2020 race: ‘Pigs in the Trough’! Add an ’s’ to the viral ‘Pig in the Trough’ picture of Democrat Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen pigging out on the colonel’s Kentucky Fried Chicken on the day after Attorney General William Barr’s Senate testimony. It’s the picture that best describes Democrats on the 2020 campaign trail. Pigs in the Trough Democrats will demolish anything and anybody if it gains them soul-crushing power.
