- TIME: Dismantling government as we know it is a bad thing.

A Peek Inside PN’s Garden Shed
Two of our founders, Bob and Frankly, have been playing SCRABBLE for years. They recently noticed a game had developed a theme and decided to try and play it out without straying from said theme. I think the result explains a lot about PoliNation. ::snerk::
I used to be part of their games until my puter got too far behind the trailing edge of technology. I’ve got a new-old puter, Daddy Buzz’s previously owned laptop that he outfitted for on-line gaming. I’m hoping it’ll be more than up to the challenge of dumb ol’ Facebook SCRABBLE! Now if I could just muster enough Hyphenated brain cells to get it set up …
What is the Alt-Right?
The Alt-Right is a very small, white nationalist movement that actually has far more in common with the Left than it does with the Conservative Right it opposes. Like the Left, it is obsessed with race, rejects God, and disdains the individual.

Stop Grandstanding About Niger
At The Daily Signal, former Green Beret and Heritage Foundation Fellow Steven Bucci urges politicians and the media to stop unnecessarily politicizing the work that American special forces were conducting in Niger, writing that “grandstanding senators and talking heads don’t help make America safe, but missions just like the one in Niger do.”
EXCERPT: The loss of four special operations soldiers in Niger is a tragedy. We grieve as a nation, rightly, whenever we lose any of the brave young men and women who serve in uniform.
That said, politicians and news media are turning the event into a farce.
Having served as an Army Green Beret for 28 years, I cannot let the mischaracterizations — many by leaders who clearly know better — continue without a comment. …
The U.S. has conducted these kinds of missions around the world since the 1950s. At times we have had as few as a dozen of these operations, and at others several hundred in as many as 80-plus countries simultaneously.
These missions are routine and have short-circuited conflicts on nearly every continent in the world at one time or another.

Reality Check: Trump’s Tax Cuts
Leftists are just SURE that Trump’s tax cuts are all about lining the pockets of his corporate cronies. What they don’t want to admit is that under President Obama, real corporate profits rose 11 percent a year but “the pass-through to workers” was only 0.3 percent.
Nancy Pelosi called Trump’s plan to eliminate the SALT deduction “an insidious effort to raise taxes on middle class families … across America.” Investors Business Daily explains that “the benefits of the SALT deduction go almost entirely to upper-income families.”
The chairman of the president’s Council of Economic Advisers, Kevin Hassett, says cutting the corporate tax will deliver growth and higher wages. Unsurprisingly, this ignited the Left. George Will explains why he’s probably right.
Wall Street Journal Editorial: “What do left-of-center economists have against a tax cut that would raise wages for American workers? They’re always telling us that America needs a raise, and that labor isn’t capturing enough of corporate profits, yet along come Republicans promising to raise wages by encouraging more investment in the U.S., and they react with shock and smears.”

Some goodies at YouTube
Conservatives are the true feminists.
How to raise kids who are smart about money. When my girls were young, I asked a female banker with grown kids for advice about teaching my kids about money. She told me she had never done anything, just expected them to learn it by osmosis or something. I wonder if she felt the same way about learning to read and do math. Sheesh.
How many times has CNN told us an apple was a banana?
- CNN has repeatedly claimed that heavily regulated and difficult to obtain weapons are legal and easy to obtain.
- One month after President Trump made an Article 5 commitment to our NATO allies, CNN said he had never done it.
- CNN “reported” the non-fact that Republicans wanted to make rape and domestic violence pre-existing conditions in their Obamacare repeal bill. They even interviewed rape survivors so they could get their reactions to the fabrication.
- CNN spent hours pushing a four-byline story that alleged James Comey would publicly dispute the president’s claim that the former FBI director told him on three occasions that he was not under investigation. Comey did the opposite.
- CNN host Chris Cuomo, who has a law degree, said “Hate speech is excluded from protection” under the First Amendment. Hate speech is the REASON for the First Amendment. Nobody needs to be protected for warm cuddly speech!
- CNN Sally Kohn and her cohosts raised their hands in the air in a nod to the “hands up, don’t shoot” slogan and CNN pushed the video out on its social media channels. Yet nothing in the Michael Brown case, not the ballistic or the DNA evidence or the witness statements, backs up the contention that Brown was shot with his hands up.
