Continuing my unbroken string of useless, inane, and pointless regurgitation of news of no particular import.
Waters’ Campaign Wrote Off Over $10,000 Spent on ‘Hamilton’ Tickets as Fundraising
44 years … 44 long years she’s been getting away with this because her voters only care that she’s black.
[CtH: Methinks the real power behind her throne (Soros et al.?) only care that she’s greedy and stupid and easy to control.]
The House campaign committee Citizens for Waters paid $10,747.15 for the tickets for the popular Broadway show on Aug. 26, according to a Federal Election Commission report of receipts and disbursements.

Ahead of Halloween, universities nationwide tell students what not to wear
“Unacceptable costumes” listed on a University of St. Thomas diversity flier are “wearing Native American headdresses, dressing up as a ‘Mexican’ by wearing a sombrero, dressing as a ‘geisha,’ any form of blackface.”
“Cultural appropriation is defined as ‘the act of taking intellectual and cultural expressions from a culture that is not your own, without showing that you understand or respect the culture,’” explains a University of St. Thomas diversity memo to students.
[CtH: They’re very, very selective about whose culture is inviolable, so I’m guessing they don’t have anything in there about dressing up as an Irish leprechaun, an Italian mobster, a German Nazi, etc. etc. ]

George Lopez Booed For Anti-Trump Jokes At Charity Event
According to a person at the event, the CEO of Liberty Media, Greg Maffei, asked Lopez “nicely to stop making Trump jokes … George doesn’t, continues, gets booed.”
“Thank you for changing my opinion on old white men, but that doesn’t change the way I feel about orange men,” Lopez responded to the request.
HE WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO LAND A HIT TV SHOW. NOW HE LOVES RUBBING ANGLOS’ NOSES IN IT.
Video posted Saturday on YouTube shows the comedian apologizing for “bringing politics to an event.” Then slams the audience for their “white privilege.”
“Listen, it’s about the kids,” he added. “I apologize for bringing politics to an event. This is America–it still is. So I apologize to your white privilege, but yes I’m sorry. If I was a minority in Denver I would be upset too.”
HE WAS PAID $275,000 FOR HIS APPEARANCE AT THIS CHARITY EVENT.
[CtH: “White privilege” now means having the sacred right to shut up while your “betters” bully you. Gee, thanks, SJWs! It’s just what I always wanted! Not.]
McCain makes speech blasting ‘half-baked’ nationalism
PLEASE GET THE HELL OFF THE STAGE… WE’RE SICK OF YOU.
The former POW and Arizona Republican called the United States “the last best hope on earth” while giving an acceptance speech for the National Constitution Center’s Liberty Medal, according to Politico.
While not mentioning President Trump by name, McCain’s speech was a sharp contrast to Trump’s habits of shunning international institutions such as NATO and the United Nations.
THE AWARD WAS PRESENTED BY HIS CLOSE PERSONAL JERKOFF BUDDY, JOE BIDEN.
[CtH: If half of what his fellow POWs say about him is true, then he’d know ALL ABOUT half-baked patriotism.]

Four GOP Senators Standing in the Way of Progress
COLLINS DECIDED TO STAY IN THE SENATE AND HELP McCAIN SCREW OVER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Four Republican senators hold and have held our country in their hands for most of this year by themselves. They obstruct progress by wielding far too much power than their positions and number merit. They are Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Rand Paul of Kentucky, and John McCain of Arizona.
These four prevented healthcare reform and they now stand in the way of tax reform.

Brigitte Gabriel: ‘Refugee Resettlement’ is ‘About Supplying Cheap Labor’ at U.S. Taxpayer Expense
“Here’s what I mean by that: Most refugees are on some type of welfare and that makes anyone who employs them, any company that employs them, eligible for the federal Work Opportunity Tax Credit. An employer has a greater incentive to hire a refugee because the salary is subsidized by the government, than hiring a good, hard-working American who is looking for a job.”

Seriously? Hillary Clinton Says She Was “Running Down Stairs in Heels With Cup of Coffee” When She Broke Toe
Hillary Clinton canceled her interview with the BBC today. She said, “I was running down the stairs in heels with a cup of coffee in hand, I was talking over my shoulder and my heel caught and I fell backwards. I tried to get up and it really hurt. I’ve broken my toe. I’ve received excellent care from your excellent health service.”
Seriously? Does anyone believe that?
Judge REFUSES to dismiss, says Menendez case going to JURY TRIAL!
DON’T EXPECT TO HEAR A WORD OF THIS FROM THE LSM.
After raising U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez’s hopes last week, a federal judge crushed them on Monday morning.
U.S. District Court Judge William Walls refused to toss any of the 18 charges in the corruption case against U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, despite last week casting doubt on a legal theory that’s at the heart of the prosecution’s case.
BREAKING: Judge REFUSES to dismiss, says Menendez case going to JURY TRIAL!
Deal for Bowe Bergdahl looks worse and worse
To garner sympathy from the sentencing judge, Bergdahl’s defense team is expected to play up his alleged mental health problems, including what they claim is paranoia and schizophrenia.
However, Army shrinks found Bergdahl does not suffer from psychological problems that would prevent him from standing trial. And last month, Bergdahl’s lawyers failed to produce for prosecutors mental health records and other evidence detailing any serious condition.
[CtH: SUCH a SHAME that his conviction will come too late for BHO to pardon him. NOT.]

President Trump to Hillary Clinton: “Hillary, Please Run Again,” In 2020
EPA Chief Scott Pruitt Ends ‘Abusive’ Obama ‘Sue & Settle’ Policy
Under previous administrations, particularly the Obama administration, special interest environmental groups such as the Sierra Club used lawsuits to force the EPA and other federal agencies to issue regulations that advance their climate change agenda. Those groups would sue the EPA and ask the court to compel the agency to enact new environmental regulations.
Critics say the “sue and settle” policy amounts to regulation through litigation, which allowed former EPA administrations to skirt around the agency’s limited rulemaking authority.
Schneider proceeded to tell viewers that the vice president and a majority of the cabinet would have to tell Congress the President is “unable” to discharge his duties. From there, the plan would eventually move to Congress.
The National Democratic Redistricting Foundation—a foundation associated with the National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC), a Washington, D.C.-based organization focused on redistricting efforts chaired by former Attorney General Eric Holder—donated $250,000 to the Virginia Democratic Party on October 11, Virginia campaign finance filings show.
Attorneys general from California and New York say they are prepared to sue the Trump administration to protect health-care subsides that the White House said would be cut off.
McCAIN GETS A PERVERSE THRILL OUT OF BEING A DICK)
I SEEM TO RECALL KAGAN AND GINSBERG NOT RECUSING THEMSELVES ON THE GAY MARRIAGE DECISION AFTER THEY CONDUCTED GAY WEDDINGS. BUT THAT’S DIFFERENT. THEY’RE DEMOCRATS.
Rapper Eminem released a blistering anti-Trump freestyle rap on Tuesday night during the BET Hip-Hop Awards. In a pre-taped video, Eminem rapped about how he hates President Donald Trump, supports people who protest anthems, and how he wants his Trump-supporting fans to pick between either their love of Eminem or their love of Trump.
“It’s time for women to rise up and say we will stand at the gates and say, ‘No more,’” Medina said.
Melania Trump looked drop dead gorgeous in a grey pinstripe pantsuit as she greeted Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau at the White House Wednesday.
SUCH A REFRESHING CHANGE FROM THIS:
“Well, there’s no one to give it back to. What other people are saying, what my former colleagues are saying, is that they’re going to donate it to charity, and of course I will do that.”
With barely a month to go before Virginians choose their next governor, lieutenant governor, and attorney general, all three Democratic candidates maintain statistically significant leads over their Republican rivals, according to a Wason Center survey of likely voters. At the top of the ticket, current Democratic Lieutenant Governor Ralph Northam leads former Republican National Committee Chair Ed Gillespie, 49% to 42%, with Libertarian Cliff Hyra taking 3% of the vote and another 6% still undecided.
I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT NORTHAM, BUT I’M WILLING TO BET HE’S A REPTILE WHO CRAWLS ON HIS BELLY, LIKE MOST DEMOCRATS.
IF I NEVER SAW THIS HEAP OF RANCID PUS AGAIN IT WOULD BE TOO SOON
EVEN THOUGH SCOTUS RULED AGAINST HIM TIME AND AGAIN, THE DAMAGE WAS DONE. COMPANIES SPENT BILLIONS TO RETROFIT THEIR FACILITIES TO CONFORM WITH THE ILLEGAL REGULATIONS. DEMOCRATS SAY THEY CAN’T AFFORD TO UNDO THE CHANGES BECAUSE THERE WOULD BE MORE COST INVOLVED.
Chris Cox, executive director of the National Rifle Association’s Institute for Legislative Action, accused Hillary Clinton of “hypocrisy” for her stance on gun control and criticism of the NRA, telling “Fox News Sunday” that Clinton “will never spend a moment … without armed security” or “live in a high crime area.”
‘She continues to cling to office as a voice for the status quo’
THERE IS A REASON WHY HE HAD ALL HIS RECORDS SEALED BY COURT ORDER BEFORE HE STARTED HIS POLITICAL ACT. PEOPLE WOULD REALIZE HE WAS GIVEN A PASS SOLELY BECAUSE OF HIS RACE. HE WAS FAR TOO LAZY TO APPLY HIMSELF, THAT WAS FOR OTHER, LESS GIFTED PEOPLE TO DO.
“FEED THEY FAMILY”… THAT’S A DIRECT QUOTE. I USE STREET SLANG ON OCCASION TO MOCK THE CULTURE
University of Oregon President Michael Schill was supposed to deliver a speech last week about a $50 million dollar gift to the school. Before he could even take the stage, the event was taken over by student protesters.
PEOPLE WHO RULE BY BRUTE FORCE ONLY UNDERSTAND BRUTE FORCE
This is grotesquely brazen. Because it’s so transparently obvious what Harvey Weinstein is saying here: “Guys, I’m a liberal, I’m going to go after the NRA, I’m going to make a movie that’s about how terrible Trump is, I’m giving money to liberal causes, whaddaya say about maybe giving me a pass here, huh?”
Vice-president Mike Pence and his wife Karen went to the Indianapolis Colts’ football game today to cheer on their favorite team and see the club retire the uniform of former great, quarterback Peyton Manning. But when 23 members of the visiting San Francisco 49ers dishonored America by taking a knee during the national anthem, the VP left. Left-stream media predictably put on an all-out blitz against the VP.
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones will bench players who disrespect the flag.
I HEAR FORT LEAVENWORTH IS LOVELY THIS TIME OF YEAR
‘Why didn’t big mouth Michael Che say anything about Harvey Weinstein on SNL ‘Weekend Update’? He’s got so much opinion about everything else,’ Pastor Darrell Scott tweeted.
How refeshing is it to have a President who actually works to preserve and honor our History as Americans? Barack Obama worked his entire eight years to denigrate and undermine our common culture and History as Americans. Not Trump. Every Conservative – every American – should support Donald Trump in his desire to preserve our History. Our history and tradition of observing Columbus Day is a good example
But the gesture to recognize indigenous people rather than the man who opened the Americas to European domination also has prompted howls of outrage from some Italian-Americans, who say eliminating their festival of ethnic pride is culturally insensitive, too.
For starters, those who were long recognized as American Indians constituted anything but a monolith but, rather, many tribes or nations.
These elitists may not pay us commoners much mind, but money talks, as they say.
Schumer described the National Rifle Association, a group that supports Americans’ constitutional right to keep and bear arms, as a swamp:
In a 219-206 vote, lawmakers approved a budget resolution for 2018 that sets up a process for shielding the GOP tax bill from a filibuster in the Senate.
Then, on Tuesday, Democrats on the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee skipped out on what The Military Times described as a “supposedly friendly roundtable discussion” over how to reform the Veterans Affairs agency.
