If anybody knows how to jerk the press around, it has to be Donald Trump. I can imagine he gets a real kick out of them making fools of themselves as they try to trip him up at every turn. He slipped out the other night to have dinner with his family at 21, a high-end steak house. It so happened there was a reporter there who immediately tweeted to all his co-conspirators that he was there. High dudgeon all around. How dare he actually go to dinner with his family without checking with them first? The nerve of the guy! Who does he think he is, the president?
FROM NBC:
As Trump Leaves Press Behind for Steak Dinner, Incoming Admin Already Showing Lack of Transparency
In a highly unusual move, President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday night left his Manhattan residence without notifying the reporters covering him or giving any indication of where he was going.
The maneuver seemed to deliberately limit access to the media.
The only way the press eventually ascertained his whereabouts was after a Bloomberg reporter, who happened to be dining at the 21 Club, tweeted a photo of Trump and some of his transition team in the Midtown steakhouse.
While the dinner choice left the media mad, diners inside the former speakeasy were ecstatic.
“There was a standing ovation when he came and left,” said Andrew Testo, a 43-year-old who was eating with friends. “He was with his whole family. It was like Sunday dinner with the Trumps, but on a Tuesday. It was awesome.”
THINK HE DID IT ON PURPOSE? YOU BETCHA. AND WITH GOOD REASON.
MEDIA WAR ON TRUMP: Top 28 of 35 US News Stories on Tuesday were Anti-Trump Hit Pieces
The top stories on Tuesday show the absolute anti-Trump bias by corrupt American media.
28 of the top 35 articles are anti-Trump hit pieces.
The headlines include:
— Trump Transition Shake-Up Part of ‘Stalinesque Purge’ of Christie Loyalists
— Was Steve Bannon, Donald Trump’s Attack Dog, Paid Illegally?
— There’s No Such Thing as a Good Trump Voter

Noted Constitutional Scholar, Barbra Streisand, Urges Obama To Bypass Senate, Appoint Supreme Court Justice Unilaterally
“According to the Washington Post, he has the power to do this since Congress has refused to vote, and apparently that can be considered a waiver of its rights to advise and consent,” she said.
Her Washington Post citation referred to an April 8 op-ed by Gregory L. Diskant, a national board member of the liberal advocacy group Common Cause, who argued that the Senate would have “waived its right” to confirm a justice if it failed to do so in a “reasonable amount of time.”
Democrats’ new Senate leader open to filibustering Trump’s Supreme Court picks
COUNT ON OBSTRUCTION AT EVERY TURN
Sen. Charles E. Schumer, New York Democrat, said nominations to the high court should get support from both parties, and said the filibuster is a way to enforce that on a president. He pointedly noted that when his party changed filibuster rules three years ago, they left intact the ability to filibuster at the Supreme Court level.
“I’ll underline that we did not change the rules for Supreme Court because we thought on something as important as this, there should be some degree of bipartisan agreement,” Mr. Schumer said.
Nancy Pelosi On Trump Win: “We’ve Been Through Hell”
A lot of the newer democrat reps think after 14 years as leader, it’s time to put this swaybacked nag out to pasture.
One senior House Democratic aide described Tuesday’s meeting as being unusually contentious as members grappled with how the Democratic Party should rebuild following last week’s election losses, with some wanting new blood in leadership.
“After every single election cycle, she (Pelosi) says things are going to change” in how she interacts with the caucus, the aide said characterizing lawmakers’ concerns. “But then, she doesn’t do anything different. It’s the same inside circle” surrounding her.
President Trump is Going to Hit Some Very Nasty Greenies Where it Really Hurts
Like a baby sea otter on MDMA, basically: frolicking and swooping and frisking and diving in the lovely warm, salty water made up entirely of the tears of Hillary voters, greens, and the bien-pensant wankerati.
THE BIEN PENSANT WANKERATI…. DELINGPOLE HAS A WAY WITH WORDS
When it comes to dealing with people who behave badly and ruin the lives of others, I’m with the Old Testament rather than the New one: don’t turn the other cheek, let alone love them as thyself, but smite them, salt them, and crush them underfoot like the mutant slugs they are.
Nowhere, it seems to me, is the kind of retribution more necessary than in the field of environmentalism.
The MSM Savaging of Melania Trump Begins
And so, a piece at Yahoo News made an issue of a dress that Melania Trump recently wore. The headline read: “Melania Trump Wore a $1,655 Fiery Red Dress for 60 Minutes Interview.”
Were readers supposed to be outraged by the price tag? Given the media’s predisposition to smear the Trumps at every turn, I’ll assume the worst intentions about the headline.
COMPARING MELANIA TRUMP TO MICHELLE OBAMA IS LIKE COMPARING A MASERATI TO A DUMP TRUCK
Anyone remember the dress Michelle Obama wore a couple of years ago when she and Barry hosted French President Francois Hollande at the White House? It cost $12,000.
OF COURSE HER DRESSES COST MORE…. IT TAKES 40 YARDS OF MATERIAL FOR CHRISSAKE
Hillary Makes First Appearance Since Concession: I “Never Wanted To Leave House Again”
WHY, HILLARY…YOU LOOK LIKE SOMEBODY JUST WALKED OVER YOUR GRAVE
(IF YOU WATCHED “TOMBSTONE” YOU’LL GET THAT ONE)
A weary-looking Hillary Clinton said Wednesday evening at her first public appearance since she conceded to Donald Trump that she considered cancelling her speech to the children’s advocacy group but kept the commitment out of respect for her mentor.
‘I will admit coming here tonight wasn’t the easiest thing for me,’ she said at the Children’s Defense Fund’s gala in Washington, D.C.
Jason Chaffetz: We Aren’t Done With Hillary Yet
“We have to get to the truth. It was was never about a political targeting of Hillary Clinton. She created one of the biggest security breaches in the history of the State Department. We still have tens-of-thousands of documents we still haven’t seen, there’s more than Hillary Clinton involved in this, you have dozens of people within the bowels of the organization,” Chaffetz said.
With Trump’s Signature, Dozens of Obama’s Rules Could Fall
Dozens of major regulations passed recently by the Obama administration — including far-reaching changes on health care, consumer protections and environmental safety — could be undone with the stroke of a pen by Donald J. Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress starting in January, thanks to a little-used law that dates back to 1996.
And it comes with a scorched-earth kicker: If the law is used to strike down a rule, the federal agency that issued it is barred from enacting similar regulation again in the future.
No, Obama can’t grant ‘amnesty’ by pardoning illegal immigrants
In reality, the president does not possess this authority, as unauthorized presence in the U.S. is a civil violation, not a criminal one. Presidential pardon power only applies to federal crimes, described as “offenses against the United States” in the Constitution. As such, “a pardon can’t make someone a citizen or lawful resident,” explains John Harrison, a law professor at the University of Virginia. “Deportation is not a criminal proceeding, it’s a civil process that removes from the country someone who is not entitled to be here.”
Giuliani: Trump can disavow Iran deal on day one
Former New York Mayor explains that Trump is not bound by Iran deal since Obama never brought it to the Senate for approval.
“First of all, the president has a lot of options. President Obama didn’t do what he should have done, under the Constitution. He should have submitted that to the Congress, that’s a treaty. There’s no way of escaping the fact that that’s a treaty,” argued Giuliani.
“It should have been submitted to the Senate… he never did. What that means is, that deal is over with the current president. Trump can disavow it, as a matter of law, like that,” he continued.
Jason Riley: Harlem Gives President Trump a Chance
When I asked Pace, who retired from a job in dress manufacturing several years ago, if he thought Mr. Trump would ever win him over, he responded: “He said he’d protect Medicare. I can go along with that. He said he’d get rid of the Bloods and the Crips and the gangs—get them out of here. I like that. If he does those two things, he’s my man.”
USGS Announces Largest Oil And Gas Deposit Ever Assessed In U.S.
TRUMP KNOWS ENERGY IS THE LIFE BLOOD OF THE ECONOMY. HOPEFULLY, HE ALLOWS PRODUCTION TO START
On Tuesday, the USGS announced that an area known as the Wolfcamp shale contains 20 billion barrels of oil and 16 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
That is nearly three times more petroleum than the agency found in North Dakota’s Bakken shale in 2013.
“The Texas discovery is in a place that has been drilled before by conventional methods,” Jeff reported for NPR’s Newscast Unit. “But now that oil companies use horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing — or fracking — they can access reserves that previously were out of reach.”
Liberal hysteria over Trump is rapidly becoming self-satire
It turns out that the hundred million dollars’ worth of Hillary campaign demonization has paid off in creating millions of people gripped by hysteria over the utter evilness of Donald Trump. Calling Trump Hitler is already passé so the quest for superlatives of evil is running out of material. According to a U.S. Congressman, Hitler, and even Stalin and Mao are all pikers in terms of mass killing.
This Is No Time to Go Wobbly, Donald
Trump must continue to refuse to play the game.
Democrats have repeatedly proven that bipartisanship to them means that Republicans roll over for whatever Democrats want. If not, Republicans are tarred as obstructionists, racists, or whatever other epithet du jour. That’s because progressives are cultists hungry for more power so they can impose their ideological vision by any means necessary. Like Goldfinger, they don’t want Republicans to talk, they want them to die.
Obama sets new record for regulations, 527 pages in just one day
“This is astonishing and should be of great concern, and intolerable, to policymakers. It is remarkable enough that the all-time record has been passed before Thanksgiving,” he added.
Obama has promised to regulate by executive authority, but the sheer number of pages of regulations being rushed through is astonishing.
Trump Could Cut $42 Billion Worth Of Regs Upon Taking Office
Trump said on the campaign trail that 70 percent of federal regulations “can go,” so the American Action Forum (AAF) put together a list of 48 major regulations Congress could invalidate under the Congressional Review Act (CRA).
“Together, those rules impose more than $42.5 billion in total costs, $6.5 billion in annualized costs, and 53 million paperwork burden hours,” AAF analysts Sam Batkins and Dan Goldbeck wrote in a new report.

Obama awards Springsteen, Redford and DeGeneres Medal of Freedom
Before he leaves office, President Obama is decorating a starry list of entertainers, newsmakers and civilians with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
It’s no surprise that Bruce Springsteen made the cut.
On Wednesday, Obama named 21 recipients of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor, which is presented to individuals who have made especially meritorious contributions to the security or national interests of the United States, to world peace, or to cultural or other significant public or private endeavors.
The list honors a who’s-who of Hollywood, including Tom Hanks, Ellen DeGeneres, Diana Ross, Robert DeNiro, Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels, Robert Redford and Cicely Tyson.
Richard Engel: Syrian Doctor Says Obama Hasn’t Done Anything for People in Aleppo
I KNOW, I KNOW, SHOCKED, RIGHT?
The doctor actually said President Obama hasn’t done anything for us anyway. Look what just happened now. He’s in the basement of a destroyed hospital and he frankly didn’t think that anything could get worse,” Engel said.
“And he thought maybe with a new president things could get better, so frankly if you’re at rock bottom, which is what they are at in eastern Aleppo, maybe any change looks good,” he added.
At least 87 people, including four children, were killed Wednesday by air strikes over rebel-held eastern Aleppo, CNN reported.
Dem Rep Calls For Review Of Trump’s ‘Financial Empire’
“We have never had a president like Mr. Trump in terms of his vast financial entanglements and his widespread business interests around the globe,” Cummings wrote. “Moreover, we have not had a presidential candidate in modern times who has refused to disclose his tax returns to the American people.”








There’s been a sense that Democrats could largely write off the rural vote, as rural voters have left the party because the exodus was offset by demographic growth among urban and nonwhite voters, among others, said Tom Bonier, CEO of Target Smart, a Democratic data and polling firm.
It’s not only bad timing and gerrymandering that have hollowed out the Democratic Party. Mo Elleithee, a former Democratic National Committee official, says Democrats have never put enough effort and resources into state legislative races. Republicans, on the other hand, make those races a top priority.
“I have to think that at least part of it though was decisions made in my Justice Department that had at least some impact. I can’t quantify it, but I think it had some impact,” Holder said.
“It was the party platform that brokered the deal between Trump and Christian conservatives — a deal that was sealed in the final debate when Trump vividly described a partial-birth abortion and pledged to appoint pro-life justices,” he concluded. “The Republican Party platform played a key role in bringing Christian conservatives and Trump together.”








THE MEDIA WON’T TELL YOU ABOUT THIS….BUT PETE WILL

REGARDLESS OF HOW HE FEELS ABOUT THE CLINTONS, THE FBI IS STILL INVESTIGATING THE E-MAIL CONSPIRACY.
GIVEN HER WELL-DOCUMENTED TEMPER YOU CAN JUST IMAGINE HOW UNHINGED SHE BECAME
With Donald Trump’s presidency now only a matter of time instead of a hypothetical, border agents are bracing for a surge in illegal immigration at the southwest border as people race to get into the United States before the door shuts.

Obama replaced the Churchill bust with a photo of himself walking on water.
Mr Farage said: “We talked about the prospect of the United Kingdom being at the front of the queue, all of which was met positively.”
Over the last eight years of the Obama administration, the EPA “used the legal rubrics of the Clean Air Act really to pursue a low-carbon energy policy and really not to further environmental protection,” she said.
IT WOULD BE SAFE TO ASSUME PUTIN REALIZES HE CAN’T PLAY TRUMP LIKE THE FOOL CURRENTLY RESIDING IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
“Here’s what’s going to happen. I’m going to put– I’m pro-life. The judges will be pro-life. They’ll very much—” Trump said.










AFTER BEING CAUGHT CO-ORDINATING WITH THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN AND PURPOSELY BURYING ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT HER, THEY PROMISE TO DO BETTER. DON’T HOLD YOUR BREATH.
HE’S TRYING TO CAUSE AS MUCH PAIN AS HE POSSIBLY CAN BEFORE HE’S KICKED OUT
THEN ONE LAST WORLD TOUR ON OUR DIME
The president will travel to Athens on Monday, then to Berlin on Wednesday and finally Lima, Peru, on Friday. He’s expected to return to Washington, DC, on Sunday.
HER LEFTIST BUDDIES ARE NOT HAPPY
The Republican congressional leadership is seriously considering an unprecedented procedure to guarantee that its and President-elect Donald Trump’s highest priorities are quickly enacted soon after Congress convenes next year.

Gwen Ifill, the longtime news anchor who had served as a co-host of PBS’s NewsHour and as moderator of “Washington Week,” has died after a battle with cancer, PBS has confirmed. She was 61.

Hmmm. You mean they’re all terrified they might now lose their jobs, and you suddenly realised you’d also lose your $40 million contract with Netflix and your gated mansion in Bel Air, and have to eat paella for the rest of your life.
In February of 2016, The New York Times reported that everyone in Clinton land thought they were going to slaughter Donald Trump. It was hubris. It was typical elitism from the liberal elite. And in the end, the Trump campaign smashed the face of the Clinton operation with a brick, doused it in gasoline, and set it on fire. It was an upset that no one, except for white working class America and die-hard Trump supporters, saw coming, which explains the epic temper tantrums emanating from the Left.
OBAMA AND CLINTON WOULDN’T TURN DOWN A PLUGGED NICKEL. IT’S NOT LIKE THEY EVER HAD A REAL JOB OR ANYTHING.






A record number of anguished calls flooded suicide prevention hotlines just before and after Donald Trump secured his shocking presidential victory.
THEY JUST DON’T GET IT.
DON’T COUNT ON IT
Her life-long dream of total and complete power was shattered for the second and final time. I can’t find one molecule of sympathy for her. Off to the dustbin.
“No Washington insider, regardless of who it is, should serve as President Trump’s chief of staff,” Martin said. “Appointing Reince Priebus (or any other DC establishment insider) would make it more difficult, not less, for President Trump to achieve the change the people voted for. It’s time to drain the swamp — not promote insiders beholden to the Washington establishment who helped create it.”
WHY WOULD THE PRESIDENT GIVE A FOUL-MOUTHED, TWO-BIT PUNK LIKE YOU THE TIME OF DAY?
The cover shows the first lady reclining on the grass in the South Lawn garden, her hair loose and her elbows propped up on a flower bed.
“Pride goeth before destruction,” Proverbs 16:18 reminds us, and so it was in this election.
Mayor Ed Lee and San Francisco politicians are bracing for what President-elect Donald Trump lists as one of his main priorities: blocking “all federal funding” for sanctuary cities.

Ebell is a well-known and polarizing figure in the energy and environment realm. His participation in the EPA transition signals that the Trump team is looking to drastically reshape the climate policies the agency has pursued under the Obama administration. Ebell’s role is likely to infuriate environmentalists and Democrats but buoy critics of Obama’s climate rules.
For years, the UAW has railed against NAFTA and other free trade agreements while Republicans have generally supported free trade deals. This year, Trump turned Republican politics upside down.
Throughout these many months, the Clinton team made it clear that they believed her historic candidacy had the potential to sway portions of the electorate, most especially women voters. They were counting in no small part on the support of sisterhood.
WHAT STANDS OUT IS THAT REPUBLICANS HAVE A FAR DEEPER POOL OF TALENT TO PICK FROM BECAUSE MORE OF THEM HAVE REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE ACTUALLY WORKING JOBS BESIDES GETTING ELECTED AND RE-ELECTED.

They know Donald Trump has their back.
They must have spent a lot of Soros money on this operation.
It figures. Everything they do is fake or paid for.
“The ones I find most upsetting are those who fear, rightly or wrongly, for their own families. These students are requesting that the exam be postponed. On the other hand, I am sure that many students have sacrificed to prepare for the test …Therefore, I am making the exam optional.”










When news broke that Scalia had died unexpectedly Feb. 13, McConnell stunned the White House by almost immediately releasing a statement declaring the Senate would block any Obama nominee to replace him on the bench.
I’LL BELIEVE IT WHEN I SEE IT
IF HE ALLOWS THE DEMOCRATS TO FILIBUSTER TRUMP WILL NEVER GET A CONSTITUTIONALIST APPOINTED TO SCOTUS.
The Global Warming/Climate Change Hoax is the biggest scam ever perpetrated on this planet. It is a socialist scheme to redistribute wealth and control populations by restricting their access to abundant, affordable energy. Myron Ebell would be an excellent choice for EPA Administrator.
Tens of millions of voters cast ballots Tuesday for Hillary Clinton. Except for a relative handful of wealthy and connected people, nobody actually wanted to vote for her.
