Bits and Pieces
President Trump asked Ben Carson to open the Cabinet meeting with prayer.
SHAMEFUL! (But not surprising.) “So far there is near silence from the mainstream media about the blockbuster Politico Magazine investigative report on how the Obama administration from the top down interfered with U.S. law enforcement efforts to take down Hezbollah’s drug running of cocaine into the U.S. in order to facilitate the Iran nuclear deal.”

LOTS MORE BITS AND PIECES IN COMMENTS! Dearest installed and fired up a new electric heater in the living room this evening. Consequently, I am trapped in my office with little else to do while it out-gasses. You’re welcome. 🙂

Trump’s Leadership: Generosity of Spirit
Editorial of The New York Sun | December 20, 2017
A glimpse of President Trump’s modus operandi is afforded by his decision to gather the Republican legislators so he could thank them for their role in passing the pro-growth tax cuts that will now going into law with his signature.
Many of the congressmen and women had been working on tax reforms for years.
“I want,” said Mr. Trump, gesturing to the scores who worked on the bill and were gathered on the White House steps, “to have them come up and get the glamor and the glory.”
This generosity of spirit is a feature of Mr. Trump’s leadership that one rarely sees acknowledged in the Democratic Party papers and contrasts with his gruff reputation.

Chess vs Checkers?
“Chess vs. checkers is standard shorthand for suggesting a president is either smart, or not. President Trump’s forte is the latter; it’s a simple game that doesn’t call for much strategic forethought.”

Oh the humanity!
Democrat politicians tried to spin “taxpayers keep more of their own money” as “Republicans steal from the government”:
In other news, two major corporations announced they will be handing out hundreds of thousands in bonuses to their employees and investing hundreds of millions:
DAMN those Republicans!

Tim Scott is a classy guy
Liberals hate Black Republicans, so it isn’t surprising that a HuffPo contributor tweeted this about the photo above:
What a shocker… there’s ONE black person there and sure enough they have him standing right next to the mic like a manipulated prop. Way to go @SenatorTimScott. #trump #taxscambill — Andy Ostroy (@AndyOstroy) December 20, 2017
But the worthy senator from South Carolina responded with his usual class:
Uh probably because I helped write the bill for the past year, have multiple provisions included, got multiple Senators on board over the last week and have worked on tax reform my entire time in Congress. But if you’d rather just see my skin color, pls feel free. — Tim Scott @SenatorTimScott December 20, 2017
Funny … I don’t remember anyone talking about BLACK PROPS when THIS picture made the news.

That stupid Russia collusion story never did make any sense
- It was OBAMA who reassured Putin he could be more flexible after he got re-elected.
- It was CLINTON who sold the Russians a significant amount of U.S. uranium.
- It was TRUMP who campaigned on putting America First.
Putin would’ve had to be a total moron to back Trump! And if he had, he certainly is getting screwed over, cuz Trump just approved the sale of lethal arms to Ukraine, which is fighting with pro-Russian separatists in its eastern provinces.
FYI Leftie Conspiracy Theorists: Obama refused to approve the sale of arms to the Ukraine‘s western-aligned government.

New study reiterates: Abortion is not pro-woman
A new study published in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons found that abortions are not helping or empowering women.
Nearly 1,000 post-abortive women were interviewed.
- 74% said they had felt pressured or coerced to abort their unborn babies.
- 58% said they had had their abortions to make other people happy.
- 20% said they did not feel any pressure whatsoever to abort.
When asked what ways the abortion positively impacted their life, 53% said either said “none” or did not provide a response.
Dr. Jane Orient, managing editor of the journal, told OneNewsNow that most of the women sought some sort of counseling after their abortions.
Before the pregnancy that led to an abortion, only a very small number of women had had any type of psychiatric or psychological care or counseling. Afterwards, the great majority of them had to have some sort of counseling to help them cope with post-abortion emotions.

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.
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.
