BABY PARTS: Two companies have admitted guilt for selling baby body parts in a $7.7 million settlement with the district attorney in Orange County, CA. In the agreement, DV Biologics LLC and DaVinci Biosciences LLC must cease all operations in California within 60 to 120 days and admit liability for violations of state and federal law prohibiting the sale or purchase of fetal tissue. This news comes just days after the Justice Department started an investigation into the trafficking of fetal body parts.

TAX CUTS: The Treasury Department says the GOP’s proposed tax plan “would pay for itself and more, actually boosting revenue by $300 billion over 10 years.” Treasury’s numbers differ from that of a congressional forecast by taking into account the potential for stronger economic growth.

HYPOCRITE: New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand tooted, “We won’t be silenced”, about Trump’s alleged history of sexual abuse. Ben Shapiro and others pointed out that she had not only been silent for years about Bill Clinton, while she benefited from her association with the Clinton family, but had literally fawned over Slick Willy in public.

SPACE: Remember when Obama told NASA to focus on making Muslims feel good about their contributions to science while proving climate change would kill us all? Trump just signed his first Space Policy Directive 1 (SPD-1) directing NASA to lead an innovative space exploration program to send American astronauts back to the Moon, and eventually Mars.

SICK: Big name celebrities are preparing to celebrate Baby Jesus’ birth by fundraising for America’s largest producer of aborted babies.

Obama still doesn’t get it – optimism, not whining, grows an economy

IT’S SIMPLE. HE HAS NO CLUE HOW AN ECONOMY WORKS AND COULDN’T CARE LESS. HIS FOCUS WAS ON SHOVING SOCIALISM AND RACIAL HATRED DOWN THE AMERICAN PEOPLE’S THROATS. HE REVELED IN THE MISERY HE CAUSED.

What Obama never understood is that there is a close and important correlation between optimism and growth. Optimistic consumers spend money. Optimistic investors buy stocks. Most important, business leaders who view the future positively will invest in growth.

The optimism unleashed on November 8, 2016, was astonishing. The very next month, consumer confidence soared to a 15-year high, according to the Conference Board, “well ahead of analysts’ expectations.” To be precise, the index rose to 107.1 from 98.6; economic gurus were forecasting 101.5. It wasn’t the “current conditions” survey that popped, but rather the “future” outlook that jumped to the highest level since 2003.

Trump Blames NYC Terror Attack On Immigration Policies

Today’s attempted mass murder attack in New York City—the second terror attack in New York in the last two months—once again highlights the urgent need for Congress to enact legislative reforms to protect the American people,” Trump said in a statement.
The alleged terrorist Akayed Ullah, 27, entered the U.S. in 2011 through extended family chain migration. The terror attack left four, including Ullah, injured.

Sarah Sanders Gets Into It With CNN Over Fake News Question: ‘I’m Not Finished!’

I ALWAYS CONSIDERED THE LATE TONY SNOW AS THE BEST PRESS SECRETARY I EVER SAW. BUT SARAH SANDERS SURE IMPRESSES ME. FOR ALL THE BITCHING IN THE MEDIA ABOUT BULLYING, THEY ARE BY FAR THE RUDEST AND MOST ILL-MANNERED EVER TO CRAP ON THE PROFESSION. SHE GIVES AS GOOD AS AND BETTER THAN SHE GETS. YOU GOTTA LIKE THAT.

“There’s a very big difference between making honest mistakes and purposely misleading the American people. Something that happens regularly. You cannot say that it is an honest mistake when you are purposely putting out information that you know to be false or when you’re taking information that has not been validated, hasn’t been offered with any credibility and continually denied by a number of people including people with direct knowledge of an instance. I am speaking about the number of reports over the last couple weeks. I am stating that there should be a certain level of responsibility in that process.”

Journos Fret Over Sarah Sanders Calling Out Fake News

Journalists lost their minds on Monday when White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders battled CNN’s Jim Acosta over fake news.

“A number of outlets have had to retract and change and rewrite and make editor’s note to a number of different stories,” Sanders said of the false stories being peddled by the likes of CNN, Bloomberg, and ABC. “There’s a very big difference between making honest mistakes and purposely misleading the American people.”

Dem Rep. Bobby Rush Sued for $1 Million to Collect Unpaid Loan for Church He Founded

Wellness center connected to church has received $17 million in gov’t grants

FOR THOSE OF YOU NOT FROM ILLINOIS, BOBBY RUSH IS A FORMER BLACK PANTHER WHO IS JUST A BIG A CROOK AS THE REST OF THEM. A YOUNG COMMUNITY ORGANIZER NAMED BARACK OBAMA RAN AGAINST HIM IN 1990. HE WAS DEFEATED SOUNDLY BECAUSE HE WASN’T BLACK ENOUGH FOR CHICAGO’S SOUTH SIDE.

Democratic representative Bobby Rush is being sued for $1 million after failing to make payments on a loan he received for a church he founded in his home district in Illinois.
A wellness center linked to the church has also collected more than $2.6 million in taxpayer-funded government grants in 2017 and more than $17 million in grants since 2008, according to records.

Now, the loan Rush secured has gone delinquent, and the creditor is seeking to recoup the money through the Cook County court system. A $1.1 million judgment was issued against Rush for $542,000 in unpaid principal, $441,000 in interest, and nearly $50,000 in attorney fees.

Jerry Brown: ‘I Don’t Think President Trump Has a Fear of the Lord’
California Governor Jerry Brown went Biblical on Sunday evening, telling CBS News’ 60 Minutes that President Donald Trump does not fear God because he does not believe in climate change.

[CtH: Seriously?  I’m supposed to CARE what Jerry Brown thinks about God?]

Ms. Lerner and her former chief lieutenant, Holly Paz, have said they faced death threats in the past, and say they fear any more attention to their behavior would spur a new round of harassment.

They said there’s “exceedingly low” public interest in having their depositions released, and they said tea party groups are pushing for disclosure out of “spite.”

SPITE? IS THAT WHAT YOU CALL COMMITTING CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES?

Dem Senators Call on Trump to Resign ‘Immediately’
“I think he should immediately resign, and if he doesn’t, we should have the investigation,” she said, calling the allegations “credible.”

Three of her colleagues, Sens. Cory Booker (D-NJ), Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Jeff Merkley (D-OR), agree Trump needs to go. His crimes, they argue, are equal to or worse than those that derailed their colleague Al Franken’s career.

The Latest: Trump blasts Gillibrand over resignation call

President Donald Trump is lashing out at Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, who has called on him to resign over allegations of sexual misconduct.

In a tweet on Tuesday, Trump calls the New York Democrat “lightweight” and “a total flunky for Chuck Schumer,” the Senate Democratic leader.

Trump says Gillibrand “would come to my office “begging” for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them).”

We’ll teach you not to wish Jake Tapper a “Merry Christmas”

Horror of horrors, when the interview concluded, Ambassador Haley said, “Merry Christmas” to Tapper. Why is that an issue? Because Jake Tapper is Jewish. Despite the fact that this goes on between people of all faiths (or none) all over the country every day at this time of year, you just knew somebody would jump on it.

At the conclusion of his next interview with Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), Tapper demonstrated how to acknowledge someone of the Jewish faith.

“If I don’t see you before Tuesday,” Tapper told Schiff, “Happy Hanukkah and Happy New Year’s as well.”

“Same to you, sir,” Schiff agreed.

Palestinians use ambulances to transport and shield rioters

A repeat during anti-Trump riots of what we saw in Gaza 2014, the misuse of medical facilities and transport.

Some Warm Feelings Just for You

All you’ll hear about today is the showdown in Alabama. All the news crews are down there, ready to preen before the camera and try to act like it’s simply reportage and not the culmination of a six week jihad to ruin a Republican senate candidate. Plenty of time for that. Consider this a sort of palate cleanser for the hard news yet to come.

This is the time of year where acts of love and compassion are most keenly felt. Like the characters in Scrooge who call on the old miser to solicit funds to buy some food and warmth for the truly needy, our own souls must be replenished to remind us that we are made by God and life is a temporary condition. Through the daily assault on our faith, our morals, and our way of life, we need reminders from time to time that God has got this. Trust in Him and we’ll be OK. This Christmas is especially joyful because Israel has a powerful new ally.

I POST THIS EVERY YEAR. I NEVER GET TIRED OF IT. HOPE I NEVER WILL.

Wreaths Across America caravan begins annual journey from Maine to Arlington

The Wreaths Across America caravan departed Sunday from Columbia Falls, where the wreaths were made. It’ll travel through Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and Washington D.C., before arriving in a week in Arlington, Virginia.

Medal of Honor recipient Roger Donlon and his wife Norma, seen here at a Capitol Hill reception in 2007, are the grand marshals for this year’s Wreaths Across America caravan.

The tradition began when Maine wreath maker Morrill Worcester donated 5,000 wreaths to Arlington Cemetery. This year, there will be more than 200,000 of them placed at Arlington alone. A total of 1.2 million wreaths will be placed on markers across the country in 1,238 locations.

World War II Mansfield veteran gets a boost from firefighters

WANNA SEE A REAL BADASS?

Decorated World War II veteran Walter Gilbert and his wife Mary are both 95 and still manage to live in their own home. But they have some mobility issues, including difficulty with stairs, such as the ones from their home.

About a half-dozen firefighters left their regular shift Friday morning and headed over to the couple’s West Street home to install a ramp Veterans Agent Michael Raymond was able to get for the Gilberts.

One of the reasons Gilbert needs the ramp is because of injuries to his legs he suffered in the war.

Terry said he sat down and talked to Gilbert, learning he endured about 180 days of combat, and was wounded twice. He fought in the Battle of the Bulge where he took shrapnel.

Despite his service to our country and what he went through, Gilbert is humble and gracious for the support from the town.

When told he deserved it after his service he said, “Well I don’t know about that.”
Terry advises area residents to contact their community’s veterans agents to see what is needed

Widow, 94, breaks down as husband’s ring lost after he was killed in WWII plane wreck is returned to her

BEHOLD THE COMPASSION OF ALMIGHTY GOD


Robert and his good luck charm made it through 38 successful missions but unfortunately he lost his life during the 39th. The ring survived and was discovered amongst the shattered plane in New Guinea 40 years ago.  It was returned recently to Greebull’s wife who hasn’t forgotten her love for him–not at all.

‘He was a wonderful, wonderful guy,’ Betty McAleenan said to KLTA. ‘And I fell madly in love like all people do at that age,’ she continued.

A little help here? Baby signs distress signal from mall Santa’s lap

THIS IS ADORABLE

Kerry Spencer taught both of her children to sign using American Sign Language before they could speak because she found it useful to be able to communicate with them when they were babies.

Samuel was just one year old when he used his baby version of ASL to sign “help” to his mom while the photographer at the Provo Town Center Mall in Provo, Utah, snapped his picture. “I was standing to the side when the pic was taken and actually didn’t see that he was signing for help until I saw the photo,” his mom told TODAY Parents.

Bucking a trend, these churches figured out how to bring millennials back to worship

Pastors Kyle Turner, 36, and wife Liz, 37, say they had “discerned a call” to build a church for younger people when they moved to Kansas City from Oklahoma in 2009.
Today, The Cause has its own digs, a space at 4646 Belleview Ave. that feels more like a tech start-up than a place of worship. To the right of the entrance is a small work space and complimentary coffee bar. To the left, “Jesus Over Everything” beams in an aqua neon light. In one corner is “The Welcome Spot,” a teal room where prospective members can learn more about the church. Across from there is the sanctuary, with rows of chairs facing a stage festooned with a neon-beamed backdrop.


THE METHODS OF PREACHING MATTER FAR LESS THAN GUIDING YOUNG PEOPLE TO GOD’S MERCY AND OUR REDEMPTION THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS.

Out of Wedlock Birth Rates High in America; End of Shotgun Weddings Partially to Blame

IN FULL DISCLOSURE, I MUST PLEAD GUILTY. MY FIRST WIFE WAS PREGNANT WITH RJ’s MOM WHEN WE WERE MARRIED.  THERE WAS NO QUESTION … YOU JUST DIDN’T WALK AWAY. YOU TOOK RESPONSIBILITY.

The proportion of mothers who are unmarried is at 40 percent, up from five percent in 1960; two-thirds of first births to women under 30 are to unwed women. Determining why out-of-wedlock pregnancy and birth has spiked is the subject of a new report, released Monday, from the Social Capital Project.

Between the early 1950s and the late 2000s, the proportion of births from unwed pregnancies increased from 10 to almost 50 percent. Similarly, the rate of births to previously unwed couples who married after conception but before birth was 43 percent in the early 1960s; it dropped steadily to nine percent in the late 2000s.

The other most significant factor is the vanishing of the so-called “shotgun marriage,” the sequence of events where a woman becomes pregnant, and then she and the father of the child are socially pressured into tying the knot.

Nativity scene with Jesus in migrant boat is not going over well

A Catholic bishop condemned a nativity scene that depicts Mary holding Jesus in a rubber boat to symbolize the plight of migrants crossing the Mediterranean.

“I’m not saying a crib cannot be enriched by other elements, and certainly, a boat is a symbol that reminds us of the need for hospitality, but don’t forget that Jesus is the savior of all problems, not just one,” Vecchi said, according to International Business Times.

Our World: Trump’s great and ingenious gifts

Turning his back on the legacy of president Barack Obama, Trump beats a new path in American-Israeli relations.

With his recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital on Wednesday, US President Donald Trump gave a Hanukkah gift to the Jewish people. But he also gave a Christmas gift to the American people.

Trump’s gift to Israel is not merely that 68 years after Israel declared Jerusalem its capital, the US finally recognized Israel’s capital.

To understand why it was both courageous and wise, consider the political, institutional and geopolitical contexts in which Trump acted.

Politically, Trump made his declaration in a poisonous political environment at home.
The Democrats responded to Trump’s victory last year over Hillary Clinton by seeking to delegitimize his victory. To this end, they chose to oppose everything that he says and does.

84-Year-Old Korean War vet kills one home intruder in point-blank shot, sends second one running

THIS WAR HORSE IS OLD SCHOOL….TRY TO ROB ME, I’LL INTRODUCE YOU TO GOD… PERSONALLY.

An 84-year-old Korean War veteran killed a home intruder Friday with a single shot right to the chest, and he’s crediting God with his success.  While Lutz is somewhat sore from the struggle, he has escaped without any real injuries and credits his success to his Christian faith.

“I’ve never been afraid in my life,” Lutz said. “God has always been with me, and I’m a hard believer in God and Jesus Christ, and God was with me tonight.”

Lutz is not facing any charges for his act of home self-defense.

Just Killing Time

Long naps in the afternoon often mean short amount of sleep at night. It’s not so bad, though. Television on in the background, the house is quiet. A lot I didn’t get to yesterday. At one time I thought of getting together a group of procrastinators, but I never got around to it.

Donald Trump’s Art of the Insult

New film shows how pushing back hard helped Trump win the presidency.

THE LEFT NEVER FIGURED IT OUT. WE WERE AS SICKENED BY PHONY CONSERVATIVE BLOWHARDS WHO HAD NO SPINE AS WE WERE THE LEFTIST GARBAGE WHO GOT OFF ON FEEDING US A SHIT SANDWICH CLAIMING THEY KNEW HOW TO LIVE OUR LIVES BETTER THAN WE DID. THEN ALONG CAME A MAN WHO WASN’T A PHONY. THE MEDIA WHORES HATED HIM. WE LOVED HIM.

“You speak your mind,” says Megyn Kelly in the early going. As Joel Gilbert’s new film Trump: The Art of the Insult confirms, Donald Trump does indeed speak his mind.

In The Art of the Insult, candidate Trump says he would “bomb the shit out of ISIS” and that the San Bernardino shooter was a “son of a bitch,” and that Mexico would pay for the wall. Someone who speaks his mind like that, even a casual observer might think, would stand no chance of becoming President of the United States. To give away the ending, he did become president and the film helps explain the victory.

In the early going, some journalist wonders why Trump has to fire back every time someone goes after him. He was one of the first to push back hard because, as he said, “The last thing I want to be called is weak.” The aggressive candidate found a target-rich environment in both political parties.

Mahmoud Abbas: US Can No Longer Broker Peace Process
YOU MEAN THE PEACE PROCESS WHERE YOUR HAMAS DOGS SAY ISRAEL HAS NO RIGHT TO EXIST?? THAT PEACE PROCESS??

“We reject the American decision over Jerusalem,” he said, reports Reuters. “With this position the United States has become no longer qualified to sponsor the peace process.”

World leaders ranging from UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to Pope Francis warned President Trump the move could jeopardize the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

[CtH: Methinks if there ever was such a thing as an “Israeli-Palestinian peace process”, it would have accomplished something like peace by now.  The Son of Hamas said it came close once, but the process was deliberately sabotaged by Palestinians whose careers would end if the fighting ended.]

Manufacturing Employment Up 189,000 Since Trump’s Election; Federal Government Employment Down 3,000

In November 2016, there were 12,325,000 people employed in manufacturing in the United States. By this November, that had climbed to 12,514,000.

“Since a recent low in November 2016, manufacturing employment has increased by 189,000,” the BLS said in the press release it put out this morning with the November employment numbers.

China Cutting Tariffs Just Weeks After Trump’s Asia Trip
COME HERE FOR THE INFORMATION THE MEDIA WHORES REFUSE TO TELL YOU.

Following President Donald Trump’s recent trip to Asia, China has released a long list of dramatic tariff cuts on a range of imported consumer goods. In fact, over 200 different products will see an average reduction of approximately 10 percent.

China’s unilateral decision to cut tariffs, however modest, should prove beneficial for its major trading partners, including the United States. The cuts will also benefit the people of China, allowing them greater access to a variety of products at more competitive costs.

Trent Franks Resigns, Effective Immediately
In the wake of Rep. Trent Franks (R-AZ) stepping down from Congress, some disturbing stories have emerged from his former staffers. Namely, he offered one woman $5 million to serve as his surrogate, and his aides were worried that he wanted to have sex with them to impregnate them.

The sources said Franks approached two female staffers about acting as a potential surrogate for him and his wife, who has struggled with fertility issues for years. But the aides were concerned that Franks was asking to have sexual relations with them.

New Poll Finds 92% of Democrats Uninformed, Ignorant and Easily Played

Democrats and the Obama FBI paid cash for a fake Russian dossier so they could spy on Donald Trump at Trump tower.

But Democrat voters are ignorant.

And Democrats rely on the fact that their supporters are stupid and easily played.

A new poll released this week by CBS News found that 92% of Democrats believe Trump advisors had improper dealings with Russia.
The poll claims 43% of Republicans believe the fairy tale… which is complete rubbish.
Of course, Republican voters are correct. After a year of screaming liberal media headlines and conspiracy theories there is NO EVIDENCE that any Trump official made improper contact with the Russians.

This was all a media lie to destroy Trump.

THEY THINK WE’RE IGNORANT REDNECKS.

Katelyn Caralle of the Washington Free Beacon reports that a DNC sanctioned event intent on reforming the party after its disastrous 2016 election efforts was supposed to bring compromise on divisive issues such as the power of super delegates within their presidential primary.

However, two gentlemen brought pretty benign signs which read “Democratic Party or Undemocratic Party?”

DNC Panel Recommends Huge Cut in Superdelegates to Avoid Nominating Another Loser Like Hillary Clinton

A commission has been set up to reform the DNC’s nominating process after Hillary Clinton high-jacked it and turned the institution into a Clinton-ized (criminal) organization in a desperate attempt to become President.
SHE HAD THE NOMINATION SEWN UP BEFORE THE PRIMARY EVEN STARTED BECAUSE SHE HAD ALL THE SUPER DELEGATES IN HER POCKET.

In her new book, “Hacks: The Inside Story of the Break-ins and Breakdowns that Put Donald Trump in the White House,” Brazile admits the Clinton campaign engaged in “essentially … money laundering,” where state parties were sucked dry to fund her failed presidential effort.

Joy Reid Guest: Roy Moore Voters “Want to Build Wall and Keep Brown People Out”

Bunch of Bible-thumpin’ racists . . .

That’s in essence how a Joy Reid guest has described Roy Moore’s supporters. On Reid’s MSNBC show this morning, Eric Guster, an Alabama lawyer, said:

“Roy Moore’s coalition, they [are] in the rural counties. The Bible Belt. The people who love to go to church on Sunday. The ones who want to build a wall and keep brown people out of the United States.”

[CtH: Translation: “People who love to go to church on Sunday” are RAAACISTS!]

Judge Releases 19-Year-Old Charged in Facebook Video Torture of Disabled Chicago Teen
The first of four Chicago suspects accused of beating and torturing a disabled teenager and broadcasting the attack on Facebook has pleaded guilty, but a judge let her off without prison time, a report says.

The judge did not assign jail time because, he said, “I’m not sure if I did that you’d be coming out any better.”

Hooks insisted that his sentence would give Covington the chance to put her life on a productive path.

YOU’D BE COMING OUT ANY BETTER? BETTER THAN WHAT??  IF THIS HAD BEEN WHITES BEATING A RETARDED BLACK KID SENSELESS, THEY’D DO 50 YEARS IN PRISON.  ONLY WHITES CAN COMMIT HATE CRIMES. THAT’S HOW SCREWED UP THINGS ARE NOW.  (Yes,I was pounding on the keys.)

Alabama ‘Vote or Die Campaign Offering ‘$1-$50’ Payments for Participation

SWEET HOME ALABAMA, WHERE THE PAYOFF’S ARE GREEN.  MY APOLOGIES TO LYNRD SKYNRD AND THE LATE RONNIE VAN ZANT.  I DON’T KNOW WHAT CAME OVER ME

The flyer, which reportedly has been on display at the courthouse in Sylacauga, AL and was featured in an NBC News article by Alex Seitz-Wald, says people who attend rallies “will be given $1-$50” and adds their time and vote “are more valuable than money.”
Every citizen 18 years or older who attends the rally will be given $1-$50 to “Pay it Forward” . Your time and your vote are more valuable than money. Your vote can save the nation.

THE SCUM WHO STARTED THIS SHOULD BE ARRESTED.

THE LATEST EXAMPLE OF MEDIA BUFFOONERY

Shock: Reporters Defend Pres. Trump From Liberal Lie That He Spoke to ‘Mostly Empty’ Pensacola Rally

A photo taken well before Trump spoke showing empty seats is being promoted as proof Trump flopped in Florida.

This is why President Trump is always imploring the media to ‘turn the cameras around’ and show the crowd.

Shock: Reporters Defend Pres. Trump From Liberal Lie That He Spoke to ‘Mostly Empty’ Pensacola Rally

WaPo Reporter Dave Weigel Deleted Bogus Trump Rally Photo After White House Called Him Out Saturday Morning

The White House called out Washington Post politics reporter Dave Weigel early Saturday morning on his lying tweet mocking President Donald Trump about the size of the crowd at Trump’s rally in Pensacola, Florida Friday night, prompting Weigel to delete the tweet within minutes. Later Saturday, Trump went after Weigel on Twitter demanding an apology which Weigel gave.
Weigel was mocking a tweet by Trump posted at 7:41 a.m. EST about the rally crowd being “packed to the rafters”.

With regard to Weigel’s claim he saw Trump in the photo, there are two issues that a decent reporter would notice: One, the man in question is walking virtually alone with no Secret Service or aides in front and behind him. Second that the man in question is wearing a black tie where as Trump wore a bright red tie at the rally.

Army-Navy Game’s Stunning National Anthem Rendition Puts Every Kneeling NFL Player To Shame

This year marks the 118th time the two teams have met. The teams meet in a neutral city between their respective academies. They often play in NFL stadiums due to the enormous number of active duty and veteran fans who wish to attend.

Before the game, the choirs of the Annapolis and West Point academies joined together to sing the national anthem. It was a solemn moment and was made even more beautiful by the falling snow.

Bombshell: Roy Moore Accuser Beverly Nelson Admits She Forged Yearbook

OOPS! IMAGINE THAT! NO WONDER “PUBLICITY WHORE” ALLRED WOULDN’T ALLOW ANYBODY TO EXAMINE THE BOOK

Beverly Young Nelson has finally admitted that she forged a portion of the infamous high school yearbook that she and attorney Gloria Allred used as proof of her accusations against U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore.

2017_12 Roy Moore yearbook

And in yet another blow to the credibility of ABC News, the disgraced, left-wing network downplayed the bombshell by presenting this admission of forgery as adding “notes” to the inscription. Worse still, the reporter actually coaches Nelson, puts words in her mouth, downplay the enormous significance of her deceit.

Judge recuses in Michael Flynn case

Judge Emmet Sullivan was randomly assigned to take over the case after Judge Rudolph Contreras recused himself.

A court spokeswoman confirmed to POLITICO that the reassignment was due to Contreras’ recusal, but said the court generally does not disclose the reason that a judge begged off the case.

MY THEORY IS THAT CONTRERAS KNEW MUELLER WITHHELD EXCULPATORY EVIDENCE BEFORE HE PRESSURED KELLY INTO A PLEA DEAL. HE WOULD HAVE HAD TO DISCLOSE THAT OR FACE DISBARMENT.

Morning Joe jumps right to dementia over latest Trump video: ‘that speech, that impairment, is chilling’

DOCTOR JOE COMES UP WITH HIS OWN DIAGNOSIS.

On Thursday, the panel on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe”suggested President Trump’s brief slurred words during his Wednesday speech on recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital are indicative of dementia.

Toward the end of the news conference, some on Twitter and Facebook noted that the President’s usual speech pattern changed and that he started to slur his words — and they speculated about what it could mean. … “People can slur their words for any number of reasons. It can be a sign of problems with a nervous system disorder like a brain tumor or a stroke.”

Then There Were Five

December 7, 1941: More than 2,300 American servicemen were murdered in a sneak attack by the Empire of Japan. It drew us directly into a war that had been raging in Europe for more than two years. It changed the course of history and ended a madman’s dream of world domination.

Fast forward 76 years. The USS Arizona still rests in the harbor, along with those joined for eternity. I’ve never been there, but know people who have. You cannot come away from there unmoved if you have a soul. Our WWII veterans are almost all gone now, passing into glory at a rapid rate. After suffering eight years of humiliation at the hands of a man who presided over a country he hated, these few once again have a president who sees them as the legends they are.

World War II Veteran Interrupts Trump’s Pearl Harbor Speech to Sing ‘Remember Pearl Harbor’

During his speech, one of the World War II veterans, Michael “Mickey” Ganitch, interrupted and started singing the song “Remember Pearl Harbor.”

Before President Trump signed a formal proclamation on the 76th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack, one veteran of the Japanese attack broke out in song. Trump said that, following the attack, a “battle cry could be heard by American friends and foes alike: Remember Pearl Harbor.”

The veteran standing closest to him smiled and began singing the lyrics to the Sammy Kaye song. “Let’s remember Pearl Harbor as we go to meet the foe. Let’s remember Pearl Harbor, as we did the Alamo,” he sang. “We will always remember how they died for liberty. Let’s remember Pearl Harbor, and go on to victory.”

The following veterans attended Trump’s ceremony, where the president signed a proclamation for Pearl Harbor Day:

  • Michael Ganitch, chief quartermaster, United States Navy, USS Pennsylvania
  • Jack Holder, Flight Engineer, United States Navy, PBY Ford Island
  • Alexander Horanzy, Private, United States Army, Schofield Barracks
  • Lawrence Parry, Private, United States Army, Fort Armstrong
  • Robert Fernandez, Seaman First Class, United States Navy, USS Curtiss
  • George Blake, Staff Sergeant, Coastal Artillery Battery

THEY ARE A PRECIOUS TREASURE THAT CAN NEVER BE REPLACED.

Today we honor Pearl Harbor Heroes. Thank you to all military for your courage and sacrifice!

Here’s the original version of the song: Remember Pearl Harbor by Sammy Kaye

ON PEARL HARBOR DAY Obama Would Post Photos of Himself — TRUMP Invites WWII Veterans to White House

In December 2013 Barack Obama honored the dead from Pearl Harbor by posting a photo of himself

THIS MAN IS A NATIONAL DISGRACE/

In December 2016, on the 75th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attacks, Barack Obama honored the fallen heroes of Pearl Harbor with another photo of himself.
On December 7, 2017, President Trump honored the fallen of Pearl Harbor by inviting the survivors to the White House.

EVEN ON SUCH A SOLEMN OCCASION, THAT LITTLE PIMPLE FROM #FAKE NEWS STILL HAS TO BE A PAIN.

Frankenbooger, Franken-goner

In full disclosure I can’t stand this overbearing loudmouth punk. Never could. When I first saw him on SNL I wondered where the hell they found this squinty-eyed little moron. Through massive vote fraud, he actually managed to steal a seat in the US Senate from Norm Coleman. His entire tenure has been fraught with crass, vulgar behavior. During Senate hearings he’s been rude, profane, and boorish. Well, karma’s a bitch, and it looks like it may have bitten him in the hind quarters … finally.  Check this out:

‘It’s my right as an entertainer’: Franken staffer comes forward as 7th accuser of sexual misconduct

It appears the worst is not yet behind Al Franken. The Democratic Minnesota Senator was hit by another sexual harassment allegation on Wednesday, bringing the total up to seven.

“He was between me and the door and he was coming at me to kiss me. It was very quick and I think my brain had to work really hard to be like ‘Wait, what is happening?’ But I knew whatever was happening was not right and I ducked. I was really startled by it and I just sort of booked it towards the door and he said, ‘It’s my right as an entertainer.’”

As Franken’s support collapses, Democrats expect resignation

Though the writing appeared to be on the wall, Franken’s departure was not certain. A tweet posted Wednesday evening on Franken’s Twitter account said: “Senator Franken is talking with his family at this time and plans to make an announcement in D.C. tomorrow. Any reports of a final decision are inaccurate.” Late in the day, Democratic Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York added his voice. “I consider Senator Franken a dear friend and greatly respect his accomplishments, but he has a higher obligation to his constituents and the Senate, and he should step down immediately,” Schumer said.

WHEN SCHUMER SAYS IT’S TIME TO GO, PACK YOUR BAGS.

[CtH: Makes me sick they’re leaving it up to him, while simultaneously talking about maybe blocking Moore from taking his seat if he wins!]

MPR Reporting Al Franken to Resign on Thursday

UPDATE: Sen. Franken’s official Twitter account replied to the tweet, saying that the Senator had not yet made a decision. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/christinerousselle/2017/12/06/breaking-al-franken-to-resign-on-thursday-n2419169

So, What Happens to Al Franken’s Seat If He Resigns? The walls are closing in on Sen. Al Franken, with a seventh accuser stepping forward today and multiple Democrats calling for his resignation in the aftermath, including DNC chair Tom Perez and more than 20 Senators (and counting).

Franken is expected to give remarks tomorrow and, well, it’d be pretty crazy if he didn’t resign. The former SNL star’s time in public service should be drawing to a close, and provided it did, what happens next in Minnesota politics? Democratic Governor Mark Dayton is given the ability to make a “temporary appointment to fill any vacancy,” according to state law.

In other words, Dayton can pick whoever he wants and this pick is guaranteed to be a Democrat. Which Democrat? That is still up in the air, but leading candidates would have to be Rep. Keith Ellison, Attorney General Lori Swanson, State Auditor Rebecca Otto and Lieutenant Governor Tina Smith.

MY PERSONAL GUESS IS HE’LL PICK THE MUSLIM RACE HUSTLER. HE’S THE MOST RADICAL OF THE BUNCH (I HOPE).

So, What Happens to Al Franken’s Seat If He Resigns?

IN OTHER NEWS: REMEMBER THAT IMPEACHMENT VOTE FROM CONGRESSMAN GORK, THE CAVEMAN?  YEAH, IT DIDN’T GO SO WELL.

An attempt to impeach Trump today failed 364-58

There are really two ways to look at this effort. One is that this attempt to impeach President Trump got slapped down hard today.  The other is that there are now 58 Democrats willing to attach their names to this desperate action which their own leadership is officially against, at least for the moment.  Again, the message isn’t ‘No’ it’s ‘Not yet.’ The White House responded by labeling Rep. Green and those who voted with him extremists. “Their time would be better spent focusing on tax relief for American families and businesses, and working to fund our troops and veterans through the holiday season rather than threaten a government shutdown.”

BARACK OBAMA Was Worst Economic President Since 1949 – Now He’s TAKING CREDIT For Trump’s Booming Economy Here is the complete list of average annual real GDP growth by postwar president (in descending order):

  • Johnson (1964-68) 5.3%
  • Kennedy (1961-63) 4.3%
  • Clinton (1993-2000) 3.9%
  • Reagan (1981-88) 3.5%
  • Carter (1977-80) 3.3%
  • Eisenhower (1953-60) 3.0% (Post-WWII average: 2.9%)
  • Nixon (1969-74) 2.8%
  • Ford (1975-76) 2.6%
  • G. H. W. Bush (1989-92) 2.3%
  • G. W. Bush (2001-08) 2.1%
  • Truman (1946-52) 1.7%
  • Obama (2009-15) 1.5%

President Trump’s first year in office will beat Barack Obama’s best year ever. President Trump has seen quarterly GDP rates of 1.2%, 3.1% and 3.3%.  The New York Federal Reserve revised its estimated fourth quarter GDP of 2017 to 3.93. This will give President Trump an annual GDP rate of 2.9 in 2017 or possibly higher.

At a conference of mayors in Chicago, Mr. Obama congratulated himself Tuesday for strong employment numbers in the U.S. this year, saying his climate-change policies have contributed to growth. “As we took these actions, we saw the U.S. economy grow consistently,” Mr. Obama said. “We saw the longest streak of job creation in American history by far, a streak that still continues by the way.” He added wryly, “Thanks, Obama.”

[CtH: Typical Obama. He has a long history of taking credit for other’s successes, while denying (like Hillary) that any of his numerous failures had anything to do with him. Also, typical of Obama is the backward tilt of his head, so he’s always looking down his nose at everyone. ]

BARACK OBAMA Was Worst Economic President Since 1949 – Now He’s TAKING CREDIT For Trump’s Booming Economy

Obama Invokes Nazi Germany, Warns Against Voters Becoming ‘Complacent’ The two-term Democrat expressed the importance of a free press and urged the country not to “grow complacent,” saying “we have to tend to this garden of democracy or else things could fall apart quickly.” Hinz writes Obama then brought up the specter of Adolf Hitler, who came to power in Democratic Germany amid the financial crisis of the 1930’s. “Sixty million people died…” he reports Obama said. “So, you’ve got to pay attention. And vote.” On Twitter, Hinz called the comments “remarkable” and framed them as a rebuke of current president Donald Trump. Take that, @realDonaldTrump: @BarackObama makes clear his view that a complacent America could be headed the way of Nazi Germany. Read his remarkable comments at #EconomicClub of Chicago.

[CtH: Mr. FORMER President, sir, we were paying attention and we VOTED.  That’s why Hillary isn’t president.]

Franklin Graham: No President in My Lifetime Has Defended the Christian Faith Like Trump

In a Dec. 1 post on Facebook, the day the tree was lit, Rev. Graham said, “Never in my lifetime have we had a president willing to take a strong, outspoken stand for the Christian faith like President Donald J. Trump has.” “Whether you are Protestant, evangelical, Orthodox, Catholic — all Christians need to get behind him with our prayers,” said Graham.

“For Christians this is a holy season, the celebration of the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The Christmas story begins 2,000 years ago with a mother, a father, their baby son, and the most extraordinary gift of all – the gift of God’s love for all of humanity.

CAN YOU IMAGINE OBAMA SAYING THAT? NEITHER CAN I.

World AIDS Day and PEPFAR Success

Don’t hold your breath waiting on the Left Stream Media to trumpet this news. It might make Presidents Bush and Trump look good. Can’t have that!

President Trump proclaimed December 1, 2017, as World AIDS Day, a moment to “honor those who have lost their lives to AIDS [and] celebrate the remarkable progress we have made in combatting this disease.”

President Bush started the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) in 2003.  Before PEPFAR, only 50,000 people were receiving lifesaving antiretroviral treatment (ART) in sub-Saharan Africa. Today, PEPFAR supports more than 13.3 million men, women, and children on ART.

Mythbusting Trump’s National Monuments Order

2016_12 Trump signs

President Trump’s order seeks to end past overreach and abuse of the monument review process under the Antiquities Act that has closed off land to the public, while continuing to protect objects of significance.

As usual, there’s plenty of misinformation making the rounds. Here are a few quick facts to correct the record:

Myth: No president has ever shrunk a monument.

  • Fact: Monuments have been shrunk at least 18 times—by presidents on both sides of the aisle.

Myth: This move will sell or close national parks.

  • Fact: No national parks are under review, and the Administration adamantly opposes wholesale transfer of any public lands.

Myth: The review was done behind closed doors.

  • Fact: Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke personally held more than 60 meetings with local stakeholders, including numerous tribal groups.
