In Case You’re Not Keeping Up

There’s a battle raging in D.C. that you may not be aware of or even fully understand. Here’s an attempt to simplify things a bit.

Consumer Protection Finance Bureau … that’s the last time I type that because pecking away at this keyboard I’m 8 thumbs and two middles fingers. Henceforth it is now simply CFPB.

This dirty little deed came about during the Dodd-Frank disaster that ruined the economy and led to the ascent of one Barack Obama. Lieawatha Warren was once the head of this thing.

Rush can summarize it far better than I can:

Democrats Set Up Unconstitutional CFPB to Launder Money for Liberal Causes

 

Rush:  The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. This is another little liberal enclave that was established by liberal Democrats, including Elizabeth Warren, that was set up as an agency that was unaccountable to anyone. It even had a budget that was unaccountable to the U.S. budget. Barney Frank and Chris Dodd set this thing up and Elizabeth Warren was the real driver of this particular organization, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

This was an independent agency set up to be able to legally get money from the financial industry and then turn around and give it to left-wing activist groups. And that’s what they were doing with it. And that’s why they are so desperate to hold on to it. The point is, it’s unconstitutional, and that’s the only thing that matters.

RICHARD CORDRAY, WHO IS STEPPING DOWN TO RUN FOR GOVERNOR OF OHIO, ILLEGALLY APPOINTED HIS UNDERLING, LEANDRA ENGLISH, AS ACTING DIRECTOR.  HE HAS NO AUTHORITY TO DO THAT.

Rush:  There’s something called the Federal Vacancies Reform Act which allows the president, who runs the executive branch, to appoint successors to people in federal agencies under the executive branch umbrella leaving. This thing was set up to be an independent agency accountable to no one. Its very existence is unconstitutional. The left knows it. That’s why they’re hell-bent, Cordray named this Leandra English to succeed him.

The money went to unions. The money went to states and teachers and union members to keep them employed during the Great Recession. The reason for that is, those people need to be employed in order to pay union dues. Union dues are collected from what they make and are sent in a circuitous route back to the Democrat Party in the form of campaign donations. So the stimulus was a substitute for Obama walking over to the Treasury and writing a check for $800 billion to the Democrat National Committee.

Democrats Set Up Unconstitutional CFPB to Launder Money for Liberal Causes

Consumer Bureau execs, workers gave 593 donations to Democrats, 1 to GOP

A quick count of donations found:

•$46,611 to Hillary Rodham Clinton.
•$13,190 to Sen Elizabeth Warren.
•$19,988 to President Obama.
•$10,075 to Democratic campaign committees.
•$1,129 to Sen. Bernie Sanders.

CFPB Joins Justice In Shaking Down Banks For Democrat Activist Groups
The CFPB plans to create a so-called Civil Penalty Fund from its own shakedown operations targeting financial institutions. Through ramped-up (and trumped-up) anti-discrimination lawsuits and investigations, the agency will bankroll some 60 liberal nonprofits, many of whom are radical Acorn-style pressure groups. It says these organizations will provide “financial coaching” for low-income homebuyers, as well as “housing and social services.”

Obama’s Department of Housing and Urban Development is also getting in on the act.

In a $200 million settlement with Associated Bank, which the agency accused of lending discrimination, HUD is forcing the Wisconsin bank to funnel tens of millions in “donations” to “community groups.”

This is extortion of private business by government. Congress’ new leadership must call on the agency’s inspector general and the Government Accountability Office to audit these pernicious payola schemes.

https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/cfpb-diverts-civil-penalty-funds-to-democrat-activist-groups/

It turns out that Cordray, quite illegally, on his way out named his deputy, Leandra English, as the temporary director. When Mulvaney arrived at work Monday morning, he was forced to issue a memo saying “Please disregard any instructions you receive from Ms. English in her presumed capacity as acting director.”

Who is Deepak Gupta? Ex-CFPB employee emerges as leading anti-Trump litigator

This week, Gupta was in court representing Leandra English, who claims she is acting director Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. When Trump picked Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney to fill the position, English sued, arguing that as deputy director the law puts her in charge.

Secret Donors Are Financing Leandra English Lawsuit Against Trump

The D.C. lawyer appeared caught off guard when CNBC hosts asked who was financing his effort. He stumbled over his words in his first answer and said some form of unidentified “structure” was being put in place to accept funds from anonymous donors.

“Well, uh, it’s, it’s not, um, Miss, um English, um, ah. There are ethics lawyers that we’ve consulted, and we have a structure set up that is with ethics rules and, um, we’ll and we’ll be talking about that once we have that,” he told CNBC.

Elizabeth Warren leads protest to block Trump’s CFPB appointment

The CFPB, an agency created by the Dodd-Frank banking law that passed during former President Barack Obama’s first term, has become the focal point of a new fight over presidential authority in recent days

Maria Langholz of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, which helped organize the Tuesday protest, added in a statement that “Trump is trying to undermine the CFPB by breaking the rules to install a guy who is wholly unfit for the office and has numerous conflicts of interest.”

The CFPB Coup Attempt Is Over, Court Rules In Favor Of Trump Administration

A U.S. District Court judge in Washington handed a big victory to President Donald Trump, ruling in favor of the administration in its bid to install White House Budget Director Mick Mulvaney as acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Judge Timothy Kelly denied a request by Leandra English, who was named last week as acting director by outgoing CFPB chief Richard Cordray, for a temporary restraining order to block Mulvaney from taking the post.

Kelly said there was not a substantial likelihood that the case would succeed on its merits.

Court Rules with POTUS TRUMP – Tells Far Left Hack to Clear Contents of Her Office into Box and Evacuate the Premises

Recent Trump appointee ruled today in favor of President Trump and rejected a lawsuit from an official who claims that she, and not President Trump appointee Mick Mulvaney, is the rightful director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

THANKS AGAIN TO HARRY REID FOR ALLOWING TRUMP TO APPOINT HONEST JUDGES… WINNING!

CFPB Acting Director Mick Mulvaney Orders 30-Day Hiring, Regulatory Freeze

Mulvaney declared that President Trump “wants me to get it [the agency] back to the point where it can protect people without trampling on capitalism.”

The hiring freeze came amidst a feud between current director Mulvaney and deputy director Leandra English, an Obama-era appointee to the CFPB, who argued that she remains the rightful director of the financial regulatory agency.

Who Knew?

At some point, exactly when is unknown as far as I can tell, the slime merchants who infest Washington, D.C., who laughingly refer to themselves as “representatives of the people” knew to concoct something called an Office of Compliance, funded with taxpayer dollars to pay off the victims that they pinch, paw and fondle on a regular basis. The numbers that have been made public say that 256 victims have been paid over $16 million to date.

These victims have little choice except to take the money and sign the standard ‘confidentiality agreement.’ If they report the molester, they get exposed, the big shot goes to trial (maybe) and gets no punishment. Meanwhile, the victim resigns/gets fired and is left with nothing and no future. The ones with the power hold all the cards. They know it, which is why they act with such blatant disregard for the laws they write to make everyone else follow.

If the Weinstein case had come up in January of 2016, Donald Trump may never have been elected president. Considering the ferocity the leftists/media/DC elite are assaulting Roy Moore, how many phony “victims” could they have created to smear Trump? That’s all you would have heard about. Media whores are experts at putting pressure on republicans, regardless of how obviously unfounded the accusations may be. The abuse by the powerful of those they prey upon has been happening for a very long time and will certainly continue unabated, if unreported. As the old saying goes: power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

The Party of Women: Dem Rep Says Sexual Misconduct Allegations Against Conyers ‘Could Be Made Up’
Republicans and Democrats are in the crosshairs. Liberal media figures have also fallen. Yet, the Left is still engaging in the Bill Clinton protocol, circling the wagons and trying to downplay the accusations. Right now, Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) has four women, two of which wish to remain anonymous, alleging that he groped them.

The other Democrat in the news is Rep. John Conyers (D-MI), who has had sexual misconduct allegations lobbed against him, with financial settlements providing a paper trail of possible bad behavior.

HE PAID OFF ONE VICTIM WITH $27,000 FROM HIS BUDGET ALLOWANCE, SO BASICALLY IT CAME OUT OF YOUR POCKET, NOT HIS.

“You can’t jump to conclusions with these types of things,” Clyburn said, despite the documented complaints. “For all I know, all of this could be made up.”

John Conyers Admits To Settling Sexual Harassment Case, Denies Wrongdoing + Charlie Rose Fired

Watch how Charlie Rose covered sexual harassment

Wait—isn’t the rule that all women should be believed no matter what? Is Clyburn suggesting that some due process should be involved in these cases? Isn’t this part of the “war on women”?

Sex abuse allegations expose the media’s hypocrisy on Trump

“Not every horny narcissist with bad judgment is named Donald Trump.”

That was the actual “reportage” of New York Times reporter Glenn Thrush last year, in an article referring to the online sexual exploits of former congressman Anthony Weiner.

It appears, in retrospect, that Thrush might well have been describing himself.

Al Franken’s Newest Excuse For Groping Allegations: ‘I Hug People’
Democratic Minnesota Sen. Al Franken’s latest excuse for the groping allegations against him is that he is a “warm person” who likes to “hug people.”

Some women have found my greetings or embraces for a hug or photo inappropriate, and I respect their feelings about that. I’ve thought a lot in recent days about how that could happen, and recognize that I need to be much more careful and sensitive in these situations.”

TRANSLATION: ‘I’M NOT GOING ANYWHERE SO YOU CAN ALL GO F**K YOURSELVES.’

[CtH: Yeah, cuz “hugs” always include woodies and tongues. smh]

Dem Rep: ‘No Offense,’ But Ethics Committee Investigations Aren’t Going to Help

Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-NY) is so far the only Democratic representative brave enough to demand Rep. John Conyers’s (D-MI) resign over sexual assault allegations.

“No offense,” she told her colleagues, but their efforts are not going to result in any real accountability.

THE FACTS ARE DEMOCRATS HAVE NO MORALS, NEVER CLAIMED TO HAVE. FOR THE MOST PART THEIR VOTERS ONLY CARE ABOUT KEEPING THE FREE STUFF FLOWING. CIVILIZED BEHAVIOR IS NOT REQUIRED NOR EXPECTED.

[CtH: I don’t EVER want to hear another word about the Roman Catholic Church’s sex abuse issue.  The RCC instituted zero tolerance rules in every parish.  (Mama Buzz had to have a background check done on her before she could ASSIST in a Sunday School class room.)  AND they have OUTSIDE auditors ensuring that every part of the American Catholic Church is in compliance.]

Happy Race Neutral Friday

The original title was going to be “Happy race neutral, non-gender specific, nonbinary, gluten-free, nonjudgmental, pasteurized, homogenized, lactose free, gun free, zenith of crass commercialism Friday.” But it wouldn’t fit.

We have entered the month of retail Armageddon known as the Christmas shopping season. My promise to you is that you will never see ‘xmas’ in any reference to the celebration of Christ’s birth in anything I post. We are not ashamed of who we are.

Doing my paper delivery this morning, I passed through the parking lot of a Menard’s and a Target store. There were a few people at 3:30, but it’s not like it was some years ago when stores didn’t begin the orgy of spending on Thanksgiving night.

There was a time in my foolish youth when I enjoyed going to shopping malls, buying gifts, fighting crowds, immersed in the frenzy of the day.

When I was in college we played a game called ‘the parking lot game.’ Sick, but fun. We’d park in the last row at the mall and go inside. When we came out there were cars circling the parking lot like so many mechanical buzzards, cruising for a parking spot near the front. We’d take out our keys and pretend we were looking for where we parked and see how many cars we could get to follow us looking to grab a spot, like so many sheep following a Judas goat. Three was the most we ever scored. Perverse, twisted, cruel, but all we were really doing was using other peoples’ greed and sloth to amuse ourselves.

These days I can’t imagine people actually subjecting themselves to the bad attitudes of sales people and the short tempers of shoppers looking for deals on big screen TVs. What little shopping I do is accomplished from right where I’m sitting now. Go online, order what you want, and they send it to your door. No muss, no fuss, no smart asses playing the parking lot game.

Hoping everyone had a wonderful day yesterday. It was quiet around here for the most part, just my stepson and I enjoying a football game and gorging on his mama’s culinary expertise. It all seems so pointless somehow. Two weeks of preparation, two days of getting ready for family, and in a half hour it’s over. Now comes four weeks of shopping, decorating, wrapping, tree buying and installation, and in a matter of hours it’s over. Nothing else to look forward to for four months but cold, ice, and snow. It’s called life and we learn to live it.

There is a mix of regular political nonsense leavened with some warm items to help your digestion today.

Trumps Spend Thanksgiving Serving Meals To Active Duty Armed Forces

“Incredible people, you’ve done an incredible job,” Trump said.

The First Lady jumped in to tell the group: “Happy Thanksgiving!” She smiled and waved with both hands as she spoke.

The president offered to take questions from the Coast Guard, although no one spoke up — which the president says he loves.


JUST THINK… A FIRST LADY WHO DOESN’T NEED A BOOB BELT OR $500 SNEAKERS TO LOOK STUNNING (not saying the Wookie could, on the best day she ever had).

DEMOCRAT NEWS NETWORK: CNN Fails To Report These 24 Democrat Sex Scandals

All of the Democrat sex scandals that CNN has failed to report on have made news in 2017, with 19 of the 24 making news within the last month.

THE MEDIA GOES TO GREAT LENGTHS TO AVOID TALKING ABOUT THE 800 POUND HAM-HANDED GORILLA IN THE ROOM.
When CNN is not busy giving President Donald Trump 93% negative coverage, covering for Islamic terrorists, botching gun reports, or being sued by over 200 African-Americans for racial discrimination, they are busy covering for Democrats across the United States by not reporting on scandals.

Below are 24 recent Democratic sex scandals that CNN has failed to report on their website (documentation showing CNN did not cover the scandals is provided at the bottom of this report).

THIS STORY IS AT ONCE BOTH HEARTWARMING AND INFURIATING.
New Jersey Woman Raises More Than $200K for Homeless Man Who Bought Her Gasoline
Kate McClure, a 27-year-old from New Jersey, told the Inquirer that as she was traveling to Philadelphia to visit a friend, her car suddenly ran out of gasoline. McClure said she was nervous and scared, as the neighborhood where her car stopped was sketchy.
“My heart was beating out of my chest,” McClure said. “I didn’t know what the heck to do.”

After calling her boyfriend, 38-year-old Mark D’Amico, who promised to come get her, McClure said a homeless man named Johnny approached her car to help.

They learned he is Johnny Bobbitt Jr., 34, from the Raleigh, N.C., area. He was an ammunition technician in the Marines. His Facebook page includes photos and posts that trace a romantic relationship from its happier days to its 2014 breakup

According to McClure, Johnny — who takes care of two other men under a bridge in the area — told her to lock her car doors and that he would return.

Johnny told her to sit tight and that he would spend his last $20 to buy gas a few blocks away. “He said, ‘I’ll be back. Trust me,’” McClure told the Inquirer.

Ten minutes after speaking with McClure, Johnny returned with a gallon of gas that he had bought with his last $20.

Johnny told McClure that he is interested in working at the Robbinsville, New Jersey, Amazon warehouse so he can get health benefits and make a decent living.

Though McClure and D’Amico continued passing through to see Johnny in Philadelphia, they still felt they could do more. That is when they decided to fund raise to help change Johnny’s life, setting up a GoFundMe page that has far exceeded the $10,000 goal the couple originally set.

“He knows where he’s at and he knows what he has to do to dig himself out,” D’Amico told the Inquirer. “It’s almost impossible to dig himself out if he has nobody and nothing. If we can raise enough money to set him up for a few months, where he doesn’t have to worry about where he’s going to sleep and what he’s going to eat, then he can get a job and go about his life.”

A VETERAN, NOT UNLIKE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF OTHERS THAT HAVE FALLEN ON HARD TIMES AND ARE LARGELY IGNORED WHILE LIBERALS PISS AND MOAN ABOUT THE “RIGHTS” OF ILLEGALS WE SPEND $100 BILLION A YEAR TO PROVIDE A FREE RIDE TO WHILE THEY CONTRIBUTE NOTHING. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THE HOMELESS VETS, MANY WITH DRUG OR MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, NOT TO GET THE CARE THEY EARNED. OK, I’M DONE NOW.

Union Walmart protests fizzle as a Black Friday tradition
IT REALLY GALLS THE LIBERALS THAT THEY CAN’T BULLY WALMART EMPLOYEES INTO UNIONIZING SO THEY CAN GRAB ALL THAT DUES MONEY TO HELP ELECT DEMOCRATS… PITY.

Unions have stopped trying to use Walmart’s day-after-Thanksgiving ‘Black Friday’ sales to launch public relations blitzes against the corporation, effectively conceding that the once-high profile efforts were making little headway toward organizing a union at the nation’s largest employer

Ritter said the union had determined that Black Friday — traditionally the kick-off of Christmas shopping season and a major event for retailers — was no longer as big of an event due to the growth of online sales.

‘Black Liberation’ Group Vows To Shut Down Black Friday Shopping To Fight Racism

ANOTHER REASON TO SHOP ONLINE.

Black Liberation Front-Seattle, an “assertive” group aimed at fighting racism, also launched a four-hour demonstration called “BlackLivesMatterFriday 4.0 -Racism. It Stops With Me” to show the country that racism is unacceptable.

Approximately 10,000 people have marked “interested” on social media for this event, and over 1,000 people have said they plan on attending the Friday demonstration.

THERE ARE THOSE WHO WANT TO TEAR DOWN AND THOSE WHO WANT TO LIFT UP
‘Miracle Park’ to be built in Rock Hill will be designed specifically for people with special needs


The so-called Miracle Park is a dream of the York County Disabilities Foundation. Last week, the foundation presented the idea to Rock Hill’s City Council, pushing the project forward.

The Miracle Park would sit on a 15-acre piece of land, partially on the current “Winthrop Park.” The land is owned by both the City of Rock Hill (7 acres) and Winthrop University (8 acres). City Council agreed to lease the land to the non-profit for $1 a year, so the Foundation could purse the Miracle Park.

“A miracle field is basically a field made of synthetic rubber so that people with disabilities and wheel chairs can play on these fields,” Norman said.

[CtH: One of my offspring took her kidlets to a park like this and said it made her weepy seeing all the disabled kids having so much FUN.  She’s like me … cries when she’s overflowing with joy.]

Nebraska Approves Keystone XL Pipeline

ONE WORD: MAGA!! (actually an acronym) [CtH: I think it’s an acronym that has become a word, though I dunno if any dictionaries have accepted it!  Other words Trump has added to our lexicon:  bigly and yuge.  I’d like to include covfefe, but I have no idea how to pronounce it or what it actually means! LOL]

The Nebraska Public Service Commission approved the Keystone XL pipeline, removing the last regulatory hurdle for the oil project after years of former President Barack Obama’s blocking the pipeline’s approval.

President Donald Trump quickly reversed Obama’s decision after taking office. Trump has pursued an energy policy of “energy dominance,” which sought to undo burdensome energy regulations and open up America’s energy resources.

“CBS This Morning” is reportedly “begging” Oprah Winfrey to fill in for former co-host Charlie Rose, who was fired from the network after sexual harassment allegations.

“They are begging Oprah to fill in,” a source told Page Six. “Not full time … But they are hoping she’ll do one day, two days, one hour, fill in ’til Christmas. Anything.”

“Unless you get a superstar [on the show], it’s always going to be, ‘Charlie’s missing,'” an insider told the publication.

Hillary Clinton: I Couldn’t Run A Real Change Campaign Because Of Obama

HOPE AND CHANGE! HOPE AND CHANGE! IT GOT MY SORRY ASS ELECTED TWICE
HILLARY CLINTON:

… I have high regard for the campaign that we put together, and all of the people who were working in it so hard. But I think it is fair to say that it was hard to break through.  I’ve said a few times that this was the first reality TV campaign. My opponent was the first reality TV candidate, and I was, for better or worse, the candidate of reality. And I think it was a shortcoming of the campaign that the work that I’ve done my entire life. The passion I feel for helping people, the record that I have of doing just that never really could break through.

O’Malley: Obama Devastated Democratic Party Like a ‘Bad Forest Fire’

Wednesday on ABC’s “Powerhouse Politics” podcast, 2016 Democratic presidential candidate and former Gov. Martin O’Malley (D-MD) said former President Barack Obama’s decision to set up Organizing for America rather than “infusing” his energy into the Democratic Party devastated the party on state and local levels like a “bad forest fire.”

Lock Up Lois Lerner
I’VE BEEN REPULSED BY THIS SNEERING HAG SINCE THE FIRST TIME SHE TESTIFIED BEFORE CONGRESS.  SHE COMMITTED FELONIES AND ABUSED HER POWER WITH NO FEAR OF CONSEQUENCES BECAUSE SHE WAS DOING OBAMA’S BIDDING AND HE PROTECTED HER.  THEN TRUMP APPOINTED A MILQUETOAST WHO PROCEEDED TO RECUSE HIMSELF FROM DOING HIS JOB.

Former IRS official Lois Lerner and her deputy are asking a federal court to keep their testimonies in the Tea Party targeting case private forever, over fear of death threats and potential harm to their families if the documents go public.

Only the lawless Lois Lerner would feel threatened by legal proceedings initiated by her abuse of government power. Calling her and her IRS co-conspirators “criminal thugs” is not a threat but an understatement. What she fears is not violence but that the truth about her crimes, what she did and what she got away with, will be finally and fully known and that she would no longer be able to hide behind a bogus and fraudulent Fifth Amendment pleading before Congress.

4 Pete’s Sake… Monday, November 20

So much to do, so little time. I have a couple things in mind to do here in the next day or so, so keep checking back. It all depends on when I can fit things into my busy schedule of sleeping, eating, and watching old westerns on television.

Many Christian conservatives are backing Alabama’s Roy Moore
THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY THESE IGNORANT REDNECKS DON’T JUST DO WHAT THEY’RE TOLD, LIKE THE LIBERAL LEMMINGS DO.

That steadfastness is shocking to many outside Alabama who wonder how any voter who claims to be Christian can stand with a man accused of such acts. The answer is both complicated and deeply rooted in the DNA of a state that prides itself on bucking norms.
The state’s motto — “We dare defend our rights” — is an upfront acknowledgement of a fighting spirit that has put Alabamians at odds with the rest of the nation for generations.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/many-christian-conservatives-are-backing-alabamas-roy-moore/

Alabamians won’t quit Moore because he never quit them
Alabama’s Christian conservatives see Roy Moore as their champion. He has battled federal judges and castigated liberals, big government, gun control, homosexuality, Muslims and anything else that doesn’t fit the evangelical mold.

The Republican Senate candidate has long stood with them, and now, as he faces accusations of sexual impropriety including the molestation of a 14-year-old girl, they are standing with him.

“Nothing has worked. Moore is still in the race,” The Hill’s Alexander Bolton wrote Sunday about the GOP establishment’s efforts to oust Judge Roy Moore from the U.S. Senate race in Alabama.

The article claims the Senate GOP is “running out of options to stop Moore.” It details national Republican leader’s rhetoric and efforts to get Judge Moore, who resoundingly defeated their preferred candidate, appointed incumbent Sen. Luther Strange, in the September primary, to drop out of the race.

Border Patrol Agent Killed While On Duty In Texas
Agent Rogelio Martinez and his partner were responding to “activity” while on patrol near Interstate 10 when both reported they had been injured and were in need of assistance, according to a statement from Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
Shortly after CBP confirmed Martinez’s death, President Donald Trump said the incident showed the need for a wall along the Southwest border.

“Border Patrol Officer killed at Southern Border, another badly hurt. We will seek out and bring to justice those responsible. We will, and must, build the Wall!” the president tweeted Sunday night.

Mediaite Puffs Chris Cuomo: He’s Nonpartisan? And Fights Like Muhammad Ali?
I ONLY INCLUDED THIS SO I COULD STATE MY PERSONAL OPINION THAT THIS WORTHLESS PUNK WOULD BE MIXING PAINT AT HOME DEPOT IF IT WERE NOT FOR HIS LAST NAME. LIKEWISE RONAN FARROW, MIKA BREZWHATEVER, AND ANDERSON COOPER VANDERBILT.

DePaolo compared Cuomo to Muhammad Ali in his interviewing skills, and bizarrely insisted he’s not a partisan. He never got around to asking if perhaps viewers could suspect he’s a Democrat, since his father and brother have been liberal-Democrat governors of New York.

Will Cuomo need to step aside from anchoring duties if his brother Andrew runs for president? Mediaite isn’t asking the tough questions. They’re asking the public relations department questions. The puffery started right from the beginning: Oh, my, Chris’s tweeting, so impressive!

REPORT: ‘Next Wave’ of Sexual Harassment Allegations Set To Rock Washington

If you thought the sexual harassment allegations would stop at Senator Al Franken, you’re sadly mistaken. According to Axios reporter Jonathan Swan, claims against the Democrat lawmaker are the “very tip of the congressional iceberg.”
NOTHING WILL COME OF THIS. LAWMAKERS EXEMPT THEMSELVES FROM THE LAWS THEY PASS FOR REGULAR PEOPLE FOR A REASON.

“A Republican source told me he’s gotten calls from well-known D.C. reporters who are gathering stories about sleazy members,” says Swan.

As previously reported by Cristina Laila, Congress has a rampant sexual harassment problem. In fact the problem is so bad that female lawmakers and aides keep a ‘creep list’ of men who are notorious for lewd behavior.

REPORT: ‘Next Wave’ of Sexual Harassment Allegations Set To Rock Washington

Sen. Al Franken WON’T resign over THAT shocking picture

Sen. Al Franken, the Minnesota Democrat accused of kissing and groping a radio personality in 2006, won’t resign, a spokesperson said.  Instead the embattled senator will spend his Thanksgiving holiday in Washington, D.C., where he’ll be ‘doing a lot of reflecting.’

On Thursday radio talk host Leeann Tweeden came forward and shared how Franken grabbed her breasts without her permission while she was asleep.  She also said he stuck his tongue down her throat as he tried to kiss her as part of a USO show.
TO FEEL REMORSE ONE MUST HAVE A CONSCIENCE. DEMOCRATS DON’T CLAIM TO BE MORAL ANYWAY, SO THEY CAN’T BE HYPOCRITES.

New Orleans elects LaToya Cantrell first female mayor: Another win for identity politics

Mainstream media is hailing Cantrell’s win as a breakthrough for identity politics. Meanwhile, the crime-ridden, impoverished city of New Orleans has been run by a Democratic mayor since 1872. Coincidence?

LaToya Cantrell has a tough job ahead. New Orleans is a poverty-stricken, dangerous city whose homicide rates per capita are higher than Chicago — the murder capital of the United States.

Nine of the 10 most dangerous cities in the United States were run by Democrats as of 2015, according to LawStreet. The 10th city had an Independent mayor.

The Democrat War on Women

Democrats are such hypocrites. They routinely rant and rave about how the GOP is allegedly waging a war on women, ridiculing gentlemen like Vice President Pence and inventing faux gender crimes like Massachusetts Governor Romney’s “binders full of women”, which were actually binders full of women’s resumés that had been compiled by his gubernatorial staff, so he could pack his administration with highly qualified women.

23517427_10214522255278232_6530750535703820122_n

Meanwhile, they continue to vigorously protect their own powerful males by strong-arming female victims who dare to speak out.

  • Congresswoman Debbie Dingell, who told CNN that a ‘prominent’ senator shoved his hand up her dress in 1981, says she is still AFRAID to name him!

Clearly, George Soros and his cabal of Democrat PTBs are DONE with Bernie Sanders and the Clintons.

  • A former Bernie Sanders volunteer reported she was sexually harassed while working on his presidential campaign.
  • A former Hillary Clinton organizer reported she was sexually harassed while working on her presidential campaign.
  • Radio host Rita Cosby asked Hillary Clinton point blank if she regretted the way she treated the women who accused Bill of abusing them.

Holy Crap! It’s Almost Thanksgiving!

It just came too quick this year. It’s one of those rare times when there are 5 Thursdays in November, giving retailers that precious extra week to push their stuff. I hear this year’s hot toy is Fingerlings, some sort of interactive monkey that fits on your finger. I saw a sign at WalMart the other day that said a limit of 2 fingerlings a day. I also heard about something called Hatchimals, which are like an egg and some sort of critter is supposed to hatch out of it. All sounds too creepy to me. Thank goodness my youngest grandchild is 10 and just about over most toys. My wife finally got a smart phone earlier this year and the 10 year old showed her how to operate it and downloaded some apps, whatever they are, for her. I hate being an electronic retard in the digital age. Fortunately I can extort labor from my kids when needed by reminding them who taught them how to use a fork and use a potty.

Hillary Clinton: Bill ‘didn’t tweet’ about his problems in the White House
DID SHE REALLY SAY THAT? AL GORE HADN’T INVENTED THE INTERWEBS WHILE FORMER PRESIDENT BEN T. PENIS WAS IN THE WHITE HUT.

Hillary Clinton took a jab at President Trump on Saturday, joking that as president, Bill Clinton didn’t tweet like Trump does.

“He didn’t tweet about it, he went to work about it, and he actually got things done,” Hillary noted, which got a loud round of applause. Twitter, of course, didn’t exist in the 1990s when Clinton was president. It was founded in 2006.

Progressives call for replacing Al Franken with Keith Ellison as support for resignation builds
SOME CHOICE…A SMARMY LITTLE PERVERT OR A VICIOUS MUSLIM

Justice Democrats, a group of former Sanders campaign staffers and others prominent leftists, launched a petition Thursday asking Mr. Franken to resign following the release of a photo showing him groping Leeann Tweeden as she slept on a 2006 USO tour.

“Franken must go. We do not tolerate those who abuse their power,” said Justice Democrats PAC executive director Saikat Chakrabarti in a statement. “Representative Keith Ellison has a proven track record of integrity and fighting for progressive principles.”

Radio host Rita Cosby grilled failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton over the sexual assault allegations against her husband former President Bill Clinton. The weekend WABC-AM radio host asked Clinton point blank if she regretted the way she treated the accusers.

For decades, both the media and political class protected former President Clinton and his wife from questions such as these. Times have truly changed.

Award recipients included California Congresswoman Maxine Waters, late night host and comedian Samantha Bee, and all of the organizers of the Women’s March.
Waters won the “Lifetime Achievement Award.” According to Glamour, this award was well deserved:

“With 37 years of public service under her belt, veteran lawmaker Representative Maxine Waters (D–Calif.) has long wielded her unapologetically laser-sharp tongue—surgical in its precision, devastating in its impact—in service of her progressive politics,” Glamour wrote of its decision to honor Waters with its “Lifetime Achievement” award.

Influx Of Puerto Ricans To Orlando Could Change The State’s Political Landscape

Already, approximately 168,000 Puerto Ricans have flown into Florida to land in cities like Tampa, Fort Lauderdale, Miami and Orlando in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria. Half of those arrivals usually migrate to Orlando, a city that has seen its Puerto Rican population reach over 1 million since 2000.

The influx of Puerto Ricans could change the political landscape of Florida, a notorious swing state. Most Puerto Ricans tend to vote Democrat and some of the islands’ residents have grown upset with comments from President Donald Trump on the state of Puerto Rico’s infrastructure and its effect on the United States’ budget.

[CtH: Only cuz the MSM reported so dishonestly about Trump re: Puerto Rico. Like that basketball dad, they don’t want to know or talk about anything good Trump does.]

Trump To Spend Thanksgiving At Mar-A-Lago

President Donald Trump will spend Thanksgiving with his family at Mar-a-Lago.
Trump is expected to arrive at his Florida home on Tuesday and leave Sunday, according to a Federal Aviation Administration advisory about a “VIP” movement.

The president dubbed Mar-a-Lago “the Southern White House” in February. He has spent 25 days at the property during his presidency, according to an NBC report.

SO THE REVEREND IS UP AGAINST SOMETHING HE CAN’T BULLY OR PULL THE RACE CARD ON.

“My family and I began to notice changes about three years ago. For a while, I resisted interrupting my work to visit a doctor,” Jackson said in a statement.

“After a battery of tests, my physicians identified the issue as Parkinson’s disease, a disease that bested my father.”

Jackson said he would make “lifestyle changes,” concentrate on physical therapy to slow disease progression, and planned to work on his memoir.

Volunteers Needed

Not a day goes by without another athlete/politician/actor/window washer/ insurance agent/Wal Mart greeter/two-peckered billy goat is not accused of assault, rape, harassment, static cling, or the heartbreak of psoriasis. I feel a little left out, like the last kid picked when choosing up sides for a ball game. What I need help with is this:

I need some women to come forward and publicly announce I was naughty in the 1970s. It has to be that far back since the Pistol Pete thrill ride shut down many, many years ago. I have high blood pressure, severe emphysema, and a pacemaker, so it would kill me anyway. Doesn’t matter, nobody needs proof, just get a hold of Gloria Allred and have her call a news conference. It would make me feel better knowing I’m one of the cool people, even if it’s no more credible than the accusations against Judge Moore.

Jameis Winston Under NFL Investigation for Allegedly Groping Uber Driver

“He sexually assaulted me, and I have every right to tell the damn truth about it.”
IN CASE YOU DON’T KNOW WHO HE IS:

He was a Heisman Trophy winner while he attended (sort of) Florida State. The school won the national championship that year.

He was also accused of raping a white coed, he stole crab legs from a supermarket, and he stood on a table in the student dining hall screaming racial epithets. The district attorney came under enormous pressure not to prosecute by alumni and fans.

She said he “behaved poorly” right away as he shouted “in part, homophobic slurs at pedestrians.” Winston wanted food so she drove him to Los Betos Mexican Food.
Waiting in line at the drive-thru of Los Betos Mexican Food, “he reached over and he just grabbed my crotch,” Kate said, alleging that Winston held his hand there for three to five seconds and removed it only after she looked up in shock and said, “What’s up with that?”

Winston’s representative Russ Spielman denies the accusations. The team has not returned any media requests for comments.

Kate said she does not want money or fame, but wants the truth out. She found courage after so many women have come forward with their stories about powerful men abusing their position.

Women allege sexual harassment while working on Clinton, Sanders campaigns
A former organizer for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and a former volunteer for Sen.

Congresswoman says ‘prominent’ senator sexually harassed her

WaPo Column From ‘Feminist:’ We Must Save Franken Because He’s a Democrat Who Votes the Right Way

Flashback: ‘Lion of the Senate’ Ted Kennedy’s Weird Sex Antics Widely Known
One glaring example proves this point. Remember the man hailed by liberals and the mainstream media as the “Lion of the Senate,” Ted Kennedy? His truly bizarre, off the wall, sexual harassment antics were widely known long before he passed away in 2009 yet there was no condemnation of him and, of course, no call for him to leave the Senate.

GQ magazine published an article about the “waitress sandwich” incident involving both Kennedy and fellow senator Chris Dodd in their February 1990 edition which was reprinted on April 14, 2016. It reveals in excruciating detail the extremely humiliating sexual harassment of a waitress, yet no liberal voice was raised against Kennedy (or Dodd) even though the incident was common knowledge.

Pud Yankin’ Franken

OK, the title’s stupid. What do you want? Shakespeare?
I have to say that Franken is one of the slimiest mouth breathers that inhabit the sewers of D.C. Can’t stand him, never could. He’s done one successful thing in his miserable life and that was write a book, the first two words of which were ‘Rush Limbaugh.’

It became public knowledge yesterday that he’s a pig. In a 24-hour period there’s been so much said about this jerk, I’ll try to recap as succinctly as I can, even though brevity is not my strong suit.

Democrat Senator Al Franken latest to get hit with sexual abuse allegations

On Thursday, model and sports commentator Leeann Tweeden accused Democrat Minnesota Sen. Al Franken of groping her “without my consent” during a USO tour of Vietnam in Dec 2006, and she provided photo evidence of the assault.
“He repeated that actors really need to rehearse everything and that we must practice the kiss. I said ‘OK’ so he would stop badgering me. We did the line leading up to the kiss and then he came at me, put his hand on the back of my head, mashed his lips against mine and aggressively stuck his tongue in my mouth.”

BUT WAIT!! THERE’S MORE!!!

A second female accuser is coming forward with accusation that Al Franken ‘stalked and harassed’ her

Former radio host Melanie Morgan stated that she will be coming forward with her own accusations against Franken soon.

“I didn’t realize his creepy behavior after the show meant it would continue in the days to come.

“He approached Carol, the show’s producer and demanded my home phone number, which was a clear violation of network protocol. I had thought that was the end of the story and was shocked when he started calling my home, badgering me repeatedly.”

Morgan said Franken finally left her alone, but only after she pushed back and threatened “to call the police and make a report that he was harassing me.”

To this day, she says she is haunted by it: “I never forgot that experience and it informed me of his lack of character and obsessive personality. I believe every word Leann wrote.”

That Time Franken Joked About Raping a CBS Reporter
As a comedian and writer for “Saturday Night Live,” Al Franken was quoted in a 1995 New York Magazine article discussing a joke for the show about raping CBS reporter Lesley Stahl.

“’I give the pills to Lesley Stahl. Then when Lesley is passed out, I take her to the closet and rape her.’ Or ‘That’s why you never see Lesley until February.’ Or, ‘When she passes out. I put her in various positions and take pictures of her,’” Franken was quoted saying.

Al Franken Once Joked About Al-Qaeda Assassinating President Bush

In 2004, Al Franken told the sign-language interpreter working at the Republican convention that he should have communicated to Al-Qaeda how to sneak into the White House to assassinate President George Bush.

Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey had this to say about the tasteless joke back in 2008:

“I can already hear the objections. Franken is a satirist! He was joking! He’s paid to make people laugh! Er, yeah … but then Franken was also a political commentator, and now he wants to serve in the US Senate, so his judgment in this is fair game.”

Tweeden recounted that it wasn’t until the end of the tour and she was back in the U.S. that she received “the CD of photos we were given by the photographer” and found the photo of Franken reaching his hands for her chest while she was asleep.
“I couldn’t believe it. He groped me, without my consent, while I was asleep,” wrote Tweeden. “I felt violated all over again. Embarrassed. Belittled. Humiliated. How dare anyone grab my breasts like this and think it’s funny?”

Footage of Al Franken Making BABY RAPE Joke Resurfaces Amid Sexual Assault Allegations

Amid sexual harassment allegations made by model and actress Leeann Tweeden against Al Franken, footage of the Democrat Senator cracking a vile baby rape joke at Rob Reiner’s Comedy Central Roast in 2000 has resurfaced.

“On a typical night, Carl [Reiner] would slip into Rob’s bed, roll him over, swab him down and say something like, ‘I’m thinking about hiring Morey Amsterdam to play Buddy Sorrell, what do you think?’” Franken said as Reiner blurted out, “Oh, Jesus.”

“Well, the success of The Dick Van Dyke Show changed things dramatically, Carl started inviting many of his famous friends to fuck his son,” Franken continued.

“That list includes some of the greats in comedy: Paul Lynde, Dom DeLuise, Rip Taylor, Danny Kaye.”

Democrats and Republicans condemned Franken’s actions, and Franken himself joined calls for an investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee.

Two prominent Minnesota Democrats call on Al Franken to resign
Although many other Democrats have called the former comedian’s actions disturbing, state auditor Rebecca Otto and Megan Thomas, president of the party’s official Feminist Caucus, say he should leave office.

The allegations were made Thursday morning by radio host Leeann Tweeden, who said Franken harassed her during a 2006 USO trip to the Middle East, before he was elected to the Senate in 2008.

GIANT SPHINCTER OF THE SENATE, MAYBE

While he lampoons President Donald Trump, congressional Republicans and the rest of the Washington establishment, he writes that being a senator is the greatest — if not most fun — job he’s ever had. And he figuratively gives lots of big, sloppy kisses to the Minnesota folks back home.

[CtH: I heard the two women in the top stories on the radio yesterday.  The sophomoric boob grab photo didn’t bother me all that much when I finally got to see it, but the abusive, obsessive, stalking behaviors he has exhibited bothered me a lot.  The man has got a serious screw loose and any Minnesotan who votes for him should have his head examined … by a proctologist.]

Victim Shaming? MSNBC’s Hunt: Franken’s Action ‘Not Actually Groping’

Yet, MSNBC’s Kasie Hunt described the now-Senator’s predatory behavior this way:

So it’s not really RAPE rape, is it, Whoopi?

CNN Panel Brushes Aside Franken Allegations to Knock Moore; ‘He Was Just a Comedian’
A Thursday afternoon CNN Newsroom panel showcased political tribalism as three liberal journalists downplayed the disturbing sexual misconduct allegations against Democratic Senator Al Franken (Minn.) by harping on the fact that Franken was “just a comedian” while those against Roy Moore and President Trump were far more serious.

“But just out of the gate, the fact that you have Gloria, you know, Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer, right, from the left and right, both saying there needs to be an ethics investigation. I realize that this was years and years ago, this story, and he was a private citizen at the time, but can he survive this,” host Brooke Baldwin wondered to chief political analyst Gloria Borger.

The D. C. Comedy Tour

Most of you missed the show when it went live yesterday because you have jobs and lives and stuff. I didn’t catch it all since I have severe sleep apnea and doze off frequently. I did, however, attempt to put a reasonable summation of the various acts that took the stage. It was more of a tragicomedy, with the democrats performing their normal roles as rude, classless assclowns.

Rep. Jordan presses Jeff Sessions to appoint special counsel

Sessions pushed back on calls for Clinton special counsel.  It would take “a factual basis that meets the standard of a special counsel” for the Justice Department to make such an appointment, he said during a heated exchange with Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) at a Tuesday House Judiciary Committee meeting.

JIM JORDAN WAS INCREDULOUS THAT SESSIONS WOULD WHINE ABOUT NOT HAVING ENOUGH EVIDENCE IN THE URANIUM ONE DEAL TO WARRANT A SPECIAL COUNSEL WHEN ONE WAS APPOINTED TO PERFORM A RUSSIAN DOSSIER WITCH HUNT WITH NO PROOF.

Rep. Gaetz GRILLS AG Jeff Sessions on Appointing a Special Prosecutor to Investigate Hillary Clinton

Trey Gowdy Meets Jeff Sessions 11/14/2017

Sessions: ‘Looks Like’ Is Not Enough Basis to Appoint a Special Counsel
In a fiery exchange on Tuesday, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) asked Attorney General Jeff Sessions, “What’s it going to take to actually get a special counsel” to investigate the Trump dossier, the unmasking of American citizens, and James Comey’s exoneration of Hillary Clinton, among other concerns.

“It would take a factual basis that meets the standards of the appointment of a special counsel,” Sessions said.

Rep. Trey Gowdy to AG Jeff Sessions: Congress Will Investigate a Politicized DOJ

Under Attorney General Sessions the Department of Justice has ignored any criminal behavior by Hillary Clinton or the Obama administration while launching a Special Counsel to investigate Donald Trump and Russia — a complete Democrat Party hoax.

Rep. Jackson Lee Gets Testy With Jeff Sessions

During a House Judiciary Hearing with Sessions, Jackson Lee asked the AG if he stood by his previous testimony in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee. The Democratic lawmaker’s awkwardly phrased and roundabout question required Sessions to ask her to repeat it several times.

When Sessions was finally able to answer the question, Jackson Lee angrily cut him off again and refused to let him answer.

Rep. Luis Gutierrez plays ‘gotcha’ by bringing up Trump dossier, Sessions promptly destroys him

As you may remember, Rep. Gutierrez is the congressman who called Chief of Staff John Kelly–a retired four-star Marine Corps. General and Gold Star father–a “disgrace to the uniform.”

Gutierrez smugly tried to play “gotcha” with Sessions, but the Attorney General brushed off the Democrat’s attempts to get in a favorable sound clip.

IN OTHER NEWS:

Senate Will Include Obamacare Mandate Repeal in Tax Bill

GOP will add more tax cuts for the middle class with money raised from eliminating the mandate.
THEY COULD HAVE REPEALED THE MANDATE BEFORE, BUT TIME GROWS SHORT AND WITH 2018 LOOMING, THEY NEEDED SOMETHING TO SHOW THE FOLKS BACK HOME.

“We’re optimistic that inserting the individual mandate repeal would be helpful and that’s obviously the view of the Senate Finance Committee Republicans as well,” McConnell said.

It will raise an estimated $300 billion to $400 billion over the next year that could be used to pay for lowering individual and business tax rates even further.

Sen. John Thune (R-SD), the #3 Republican in the Senate, claims that “there has been a whip count and he is confident Republicans can pass a tax bill that includes a measure to repeal the mandate.”

If this is true, that means the other senators who have voted against Obamacare repeal attempts have agreed to vote for the tax bill with the mandate repeal: John McCain (R-AZ), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and Susan Collins (R-ME).

Democrats Grill Sessions Over Rejection of AT&T-Time Warne Merger Democrats Urged Him to Reject

The allegation that the merger approval process had been subject to political influence is particularly ironic because it was only five months ago that several Democratic senators penned a letter to Sessions urging the Justice Department to block the merger.

The group of Senators–which was led by Al Franken (D-Minnesota) and included Bernie Sanders, Sherrod Brown, Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren, Al Franken, and Edward Markey

Jeff Sessions continues to prove he’s Trump’s biggest mistake
The litany of things he couldn’t remember or couldn’t discuss seemed calculated to frustrate rather than enlighten. The fact that he thought non-answers to big questions would be good enough reflects how poorly he fits his job.

His faulty judgment has become a calling card, which is why I’ve argued that appointing Sessions was Trump’s biggest personnel mistake; yesterday’s performance did nothing to change my view.

Distasteful: Matthews Hints Jeff Sessions Being Racist for Attitude Toward Black Dem in Hearing
The baseless and tasteless accusation came in the second of three questions to Jeffries, who was one such member of Congress who participated in the questioning.

The Hardball host then pulled the pin and lobbed the proverbial grenade into the interview: “Did you notice anything sort of ethnic about his attitude in answering your questions, something that rattled him, he seemed disturbed that it was you asking the questions? Did you sense anything there?”

Jeffries replied “not necessarily” and pivoted back to the content of what Sessions told him.

Limbaugh: ‘Search-and-Destroy Mission’ Against Roy Moore Is Really About Mitch McConnell Sending Steve Bannon a Message
“Whether Judge Moore did the deed or deeds or not, what’s really happening here folks, if you really want to know – it’s a multi-faceted search-and-destroy mission here,” Limbaugh said. “But what’s really driving this – do not doubt me about this. But what’s really driving this is Mitch McConnell saying to Steve Bannon, ‘Really? You think you’re going to get your guys elected? You think you are going to get your guys elected and me kicked out of here? Really? Seriously? OK, watch this.’”

McConnell: If Moore wins, he’ll “immediately” face Ethics Committee
I STILL SAY McCONNELL WILL NEVER SEAT HIM.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said that if Alabama’s Senate candidate Roy Moore wins, he’ll face an ethics investigation immediately after he’s sworn into office. “It would be a rather unusual beginning,” McConnell said, speaking at a Wall Street Journal event.

“I’d like to save the seat, and it’s a heck of a dilemma when you’ve got a completely unacceptable candidate bearing the label of your party within a month of the election,” he added.
