Wait, what? You mean the world DIDN’T end?!

Nancy Pelosi called the GOP tax plan bill, “Armageddon.”

But the Tax Foundation says it is pro-growth and will

  • increase revenues by $600 billion,
  • lift the GDP by 1.7%, boost wages by 1.5%, and
  • add 339,000 full-time jobs to the economy.

Hardly the end of the world.

2017_12 GOP tax cuts toon by Ramirez

I got this in an email from Heritage Action for America:

The 2016 election provided a once in a generation opportunity for tax reform. And thanks to your efforts, the Republican-controlled Congress has delivered a huge accomplishment for the conservative movement and America as a whole.

Thirteen months ago, the American people spoke with a firm and resounding message — they demanded sweeping tax reform and lower taxes for everyone!

And this time — Congress listened. Republicans in Congress passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which will help middle class families keep more dollars in their pockets, small business will get the chance to grow and thrive, and large business are now able to bring jobs back to America and increase the wages of workers.

This video is really worth watching.

DEMOCRAT SPEECHES: “Republicans just want you to die!”

“Republicans Pass Tax Reform, Everyone DEAD” by Ben Shapiro

Wednesday dawned to the horrifying cacophony of howling dogs mourning their dead masters – men, women and children killed in a mass slaughter by the Senate’s passage of a rather ordinary tax bill from the Republicans. Yes, the Republicans had been warned that their plan would cause a symphony of darkness to play across the land. They’d been warned that the streets would be strewn with bodies. Worse, they’d been warned that those dead people would then move to Chicago and vote Democratic.

But even Republicans, who are also dead, were shocked to find themselves inhabiting the bowels of Hell – in particular, inhabiting a special place therein reserved for women who did not vote for Hillary Clinton and voters who did not stand with Roy Moore.

And all of this thanks to President Trump, who had pitched the tax cut by stating that he merely wanted what was best in life: to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

It is somewhat awkward writing this piece from the afterlife. It’s even more awkward writing this for a news site that exists on the internet – you remember, the internet, that thing that used to exist before Republicans repealed net neutrality, resulting in the annihilation of entire populations and the end of the internet itself.

And it’s supremely awkward to write it from underwater, given that President Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris Accords doomed huge cities to the realm of Aquaman.

What makes things even crazier is that everything is on fire despite being underwater, since Trump’s decision to move the American embassy to Jerusalem angered the Arab street so much.

By my count, I’ve died several dozen times since President Trump’s election, according to the warnings issued by media and Democrats. Yet I’ve never been able to rest in peace, because dead Republicans just keep on passing legislation that affects dead Americans and dead Democrats and dead media members keep resisting dead Donald Trump.

It turns out that the afterlife looks exactly like regular life.

Except, of course, that Justin Bieber hasn’t released any new songs in the Great Beyond. So that’s nice.

Tax Reform

2017 Tax cuts toon by Branco

Stilton was in fine form:

Despite the good the tax reform plan might do for their voters, Democrats are unanimously opposed because some cuts go to those who pay the vast majority of taxes (the Evil Rich, who should more properly be hung like piñatas and beaten with sticks until they explode in a shower of bloodstained wealth) and other cuts go to corporations to encourage them to produce more employment. And if there’s one thing Democrats hate, it’s jobs.

On Monday, Nancy Pelosi, who has previously praised unemployment for giving people the free time to become artists, writers, philosophers, or meth addicts, was scheduled to speak before a huge rally of angry anti-tax reform protesters. Hilariously, so few people showed up (about two dozen) that Pelosi simply blew off the protesters – perhaps to spend time with her accountant figuring out how the new tax rates will affect middle-class taxpayers like her who have approximately $200 million in assets thanks to “putting a little aside each month” and clipping coupons.

Democrats are universally against the tax reform simply because Republicans, and particularly Donald Trump, are for it. Because the last thing they want to see for the next three years is America and Americans (of all economic levels) succeeding.

Alabama Voter Fraud?

2016 Voter fraud toon by Branco

Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill has decided to launch an investigation into possible voter fraud in last week’s Senate special election that saw Democrat Doug Jones defeat Republican Roy Moore.

The decision came after an interview with a person on FOX10, in which a jubilant Jones supporter told a reporter, “We came here all the way from different parts of the country as part of our fellowship, and all of us pitched in to vote and canvas together, and we got our boy elected!”

SOS Merrill said he is trying to find out who the man is, and if he really meant what he said, or if he only misspoke.

A return to principled realism

2017_09 Obama vs Trump doctrines

President Trump formally unveiled his Administration’s National Security Strategy (NSS).

The main points are:

  • Protect the homeland, the American people, and the American way of life
  • Promote American prosperity
  • Preserve peace through strength
  • Advance American influence

At 65 pages, the NSS will serve as the foundation for more granular security plans, including the National Counterterrorism Strategy, the Nuclear Posture Review, and the Ballistic Missile Defense Review.

Bits and Pieces

OBAMA: There is clear evidence that the Obama administration colluded with the Russian government to free an Islamic terrorist responsible for the deaths of Americans — all in order to appease Iran to pave the way for the Obama administration’s surrender to the burgeoning Iranian nuclear program and Iran’s escalating regional ambitions.

2017 in Review

9th CIRCUS COURT: 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals judge Alex Kozinski has decided to retire instead of defending allegations of sexual misconduct. Trump gets to appoint his replacement!

EPA: No need to work at draining the swamp! Since Trump’s appointee took over at the EPA, 770 anti-Trumpers have quit or retired.

2017_12 Obama v Trump GDP

NBC: The final episode of NBC’s Chris Matthews show will air on July 21. Now, if only MSNBC would cancel Hardball.

HYPOCRITES: Democrats aren’t interested in wiping out sexual abuse. While Roy Moore was running for office, they were all over Franken to step down. Now that Moore has lost, the election, they’re telling him to stay. So much for the moral high ground.

The Evil Obama Did

2017_12 Obama helped Hezbollah

The Iranian-sponsored terrorist group Hezbollah has been a major player in the cocaine traffic into the U.S.

  • U.S. law enforcement came up with an aggressive plan to take down the Hezbollah international network and its key individuals.
  • OBAMA BLOCKED IT.

Politico Magazine has an amazing expose on how the Obama White House ENABLED Hezbollah to continue drug-running into the U.S. The Politico article is so long, so detailed, and so powerful, you should probably just go read the whole thing.

More FAKE NEWS from CNN

Following the vote to rescind Obama era regulations on the internet, FCC chairman Ajit Pai issued this statement:

It’s difficult to match that mundane reality to the apocalyptic rhetoric that we’ve heard from Title II supporters. And as the debate has gone on, their claims have gotten more and more outlandish. So let’s be clear. Returning to the legal framework that governed the Internet from President Clinton’s pronouncement in 1996 until 2015 is not going to destroy the Internet. It is not going to end the Internet as we know it. It is not going to kill democracy. It is not going to stifle free expression online. If stating these propositions alone doesn’t demonstrate their absurdity, our Internet experience before 2015, and our experience tomorrow, once this order passes, will prove them so.

This is how CNN reported it:

2017_12 CNN net neutrality fake news

From what I’ve read, the Obama-era regulations favored the biggest internet providers while stifling investment by the kinds of small companies that were willing to extend better service to rural areas.  That sounds typical of something Democrats would do, doesn’t it?  Anyway, I can believe this is what the regs actually accomplished, because I’ve got a friend who lives in the boonies who, can you believe this, still has DIAL UP.  Her connection is so slow that, if I want to send her a photo, I have to reformat it so the file is less than 100 kb.
