Continued prayers for Rep. Steve Scalise, whose condition has been upgraded to serious following additional surgery, and for his family, friends, and medical team. May God grant them strength and skill and peace. Amen.
Prayers for the sailors who lost their lives on the USS Fitzgerald and for their families and friends. May God have mercy on their souls and grant them peace. Amen.
We’ve witnessed a comedian holding up a severed ‘head’ of the President, and a Shakespeare play where Trump is assassinated instead of Caesar, then last week’s attempted massacre of GOP politicians. No matter, Senator Elizabeth Warren says: “Donald, you ain’t seen nasty yet.” Real classy, Senator Warren.
Today, President Donald J. Trump will host a working session with technology leaders in the private sector to develop creative solutions that will streamline government services. Modernizing government is an enormous undertaking and requires the best minds working in concert toward providing services that are effective and cost-efficient.
OK, maybe I could have been a bit more sensitive, but this gets so tiresome. Give them the slightest opportunity and they respond like a Pavlovian animal. Their actions are as repulsive as they are predictable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GDh7O6lslQ Sessions met with Russian envoy twice last year, encounters he later did not disclose
THE DEMS PARLAYED THIS INTO: HE LIED!! HE LIED!! HE MUST STEP DOWN! IMPEACH TRUMP!!
In a statement issued Wednesday night, Sessions said he “never met with any Russian officials to discuss issues of the campaign. I have no idea what this allegation is about. It is false.”
Justice officials said Sessions met with Kislyak on Sept. 8 in his capacity as a member of the armed services panel rather than in his role as a Trump campaign surrogate.
“He was asked during the hearing about communications between Russia and the Trump campaign — not about meetings he took as a senator and a member of the Armed Services Committee,” Flores said.
Pelosi calls for Sessions’s resignation “Jeff Sessions lied under oath during his confirmation hearing before the Senate. Under penalty of perjury, he told the Senate Judiciary Committee, ‘I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign, and I did not have communications with the Russians.’ We now know that statement is false,” Pelosi said in a statement.
“Now, after lying under oath to Congress about his own communications with the Russians, the Attorney General must resign. Sessions is not fit to serve as the top law enforcement officer of our country and must resign.”
Cummings says Sessions should step down over conversations with Russian ambassador “Attorney General Sessions should resign immediately, and there is no longer any question that we need a truly independent commission to investigate this issue.”
The Washington Post on Wednesday reported that Sessions spoke once privately with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. He also spoke with Kislyak and other ambassadors during an event in July.
Manchin: Sessions should resign if he lied about Russia contacts The only Senate Democrat who voted to confirm Jeff Sessions for attorney general says Sessions should resign if he misled Congress about his meetings with a Russian ambassador last year.
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) made the comments to The Daily Beast as Democrats step up their calls for Sessions to resign, or at least recuse himself from any investigations related to the Trump campaign and Russia.
Warren Joins Dems in Call For Sessions to Resign: ‘This Is Not Fake News’ Sen. Elizabeth Warren is joining Reps. Nany Pelosi and Elijah Cummings in calling for U.S. Attorney Jeff Sessions to step down after a Washington Post report revealed that he spoke with Russia’s ambassador to the U.S. twice over the last year.
“It’s a simple q: ‘Have you been in contact with anyone connected to any part of the Russian government about the 2016 election?'”
“Jeff Sessions answered ‘No.’ Turns out he met with the Russian Ambassador. Two months before the election.”
“This is not normal. This is not fake news. This is a very real & serious threat to the national security of the United States.”
The left remains blissfully ignorant that their ad hominem attacks on the president and his Cabinet accomplishes little except to expose them as petty, petulant whiners who have no interest in the welfare of the country or its people, rather advancing their own personal vendettas against those they lost power to.
Yesterday may be most aptly described as a three ring circus.
Ring #1 had the Democrat hissy fit failing to stop the confirmation of Betsy DeVos as Education Secretary. Undeterred, they continued to stomp their feet and act less like the most deliberative body in the nation and more like kindergartners desperately in need of a nap. Today they aim their anger at AG nominee Jeff Sessions. Dizzy Lizzy Warren made such an ass of herself she’s not allowed to speak at all today.
Ring #2 had three liberal hacks in black robes assuming to dictate immigration policy and decide if the president should be tasked with what kind of freeloaders are allowed into the country or will they? The questions ran far afield as they grilled government representatives when they shouldn’t even be hearing the case.
Ring #3 was what CNN termed as a debate on Obamacare between Senator Ted Cruz and Bernie “the brain” Sanders. It wasn’t much of a contest as Cruz had his facts in order and poor Bernie had 3 weak talking points. It was 90 minutes of an old socialist taking a beat-down.
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said on the Senate floor Tuesday that Warren had violated the upper chamber’s rules as she delivered a harsh speech opposing the nomination of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) for attorney general.
“Tonight I wanted to read that letter, and Sen. Mitch McConnell and Republicans came to the floor to shut me down for reading that letter,” Warren said in a Facebook Live video late Tuesday night. “So right now what I’d like to do outside the Senate, I just want to read the letter.”
Senator Elizabeth Warren Is Told To Take HER SEAT For Inappropriate Language
“I will not be silent while the Republicans rubber stamp an AG who will never stand up to the @POTUS when he breaks the law.”
Speaking on the Senate floor, Warren quoted from 30-year-old correspondence from Coretta Scott King relating to Sessions’ failed judicial nomination in the 1980s. It was part of a barnstorming speech by the Massachusetts Senator against Sessions’ suitability for the post and attacking his record on civil rights.
Mitch McConnell, the Republican majority leader, objected that Warren had broken Senate rules that prohibit one member impugning the conduct of another. Senators then voted 49-43 to uphold a ruling in McConnell’s favour.
He asked the court to ‘immediately’ lift a judge’s injunction or, a the very least, reinstate the part of Trump’s order that ‘extends beyond people who are in the US or who have been in the US.’

Ted Cruz CRUSHES Socialist Bernie Sanders in CNN Obamacare Debate It was a debate for the ages. Texas Senator Ted Cruz, a constitutional conservative versus Soviet-style socialist Bernie Sanders on CNN Wednesday night over the future of the failed Obamacare debacle.
It was such a bloodbath for Soviet Sanders — so much so that leftist CNN decided not to have a discussion panel after the much-ballyhooed debate event and Twitter decided to downplay by refusing to trend any of the relevant hashtags that normally would go viral.
Sanders refused to address broken Democrat promises, promises that Americans are painfully experiencing today.
As expected, CNN filled the audience with sob stories from people touting Obamacare as the second coming.
Ted Cruz treated them with compassion, grace, and logic in responding to their concerns about the repeal of Obamacare and the replacements being discussed that would not negatively affect their current coverage.
When some in the audience gave specific personal testimonies how their lives were damaged by Obamacare, heartless socialist Sanders treated them like the number they would be under socialized medicine, often turning to his Marxist talking points to bail him out when he had no logical answer to the failed Democrat Party disaster.

“Senator Cruz, can you promise me that you and the Republican leaders in congress will have – actually have a replacement plan in place for people like me who depend on their Medicaid? In other words, I like my coverage, can I keep it?”
Below is a close up of the question that was asked to Senator Ted Cruz. The email is from a Gmal account as you can see from the top of the paper. The subject line reads “Your Question,” as the two photographs below show.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) refused to shake the hand of Betsy DeVos, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to head the Department of Education, following a contentious Senate confirmation hearing on Tuesday.
‘It’s been an honor’ President Obama began his final press conference on a surprising note. Despite “not liking all of the stories you’ve filed,” he told the gathered White House press corps that it’s your duty to ask “tough questions” and not be “sycophants.”
Too bad reporters were apparently not paying attention.
What followed was one softball after another, with rhetorical foot massages sandwiched between.
“Thank you, Mr. President,” each reporter began.
“It’s been an honor,” said another, before literally making the “call me” expression while pointing at her cellphone.
[CtH: GAG ME!!]
A reporter for The Blade, Chris Johnson, used his opportunity to ask the president a question to instead list a series of LGBT “accomplishments” Obama enjoyed during his tenure — before setting the president up to attack Trump.
Back in the day, when I was a working stiff, one of the accounts I serviced had an R&D department. On one of the engineers’ desks was a sign that read: “There comes a time in the history of every project when it becomes necessary to shoot the engineers and begin production.”
There is at least a score of links I have bookmarked, so the time has come to begin production. There is no particular rhyme or reason for anything you find here, but you should be used to that by now.
Are there any adults left in the Democratic Party? Since Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton, Democrats’ behavior has been sad to watch.
It’s fairly easy to laugh at this childishness, even from the famously petty president of the United States. But the left’s road trip to Crazytown took a darker turn when accusations that Russia hacked the election results to make Trump president were made by formerly “respectable” voices and given oxygen by the media and Democrats.
VA manager bans Christmas tree from office cubicle TRUMP NEEDS TO GET RID OF THIS NEST OF VIPERS AT THE TOP OF THE VA AND APPOINT SOMEBODY WHO CARES ABOUT OUR VETERANS.
THE VERY FIRST THING HE SHOULD DO IS ISSUE AN EXECUTIVE ORDER THAT VETS CAN GO TO ANY HOSPITAL THEY CHOOSE FOR TREATMENT. ONE CASE OF A VET COMMITTING SUICIDE BECAUSE HE CAN’T GET MEDICAL HELP IS TOO MANY. AND I’VE SEEN MORE THAN ONE.
“There is a Christmas tree, ornaments, and decorations in the cubicle across from Luis Stevenson’s desk (the same cubicle where the scanner is housed),” wrote VA supervisor Rebecca Cellucci. “If this belongs to you, please claim it. Otherwise, it will be discarded on Friday.”
“Either management has a policy against any mention of Christmas or religion, or they are absolutely tone deaf, to talk about executing a Christmas tree a couple of weeks before Christmas,” the employee said.

LawNewz.com has confirmed that she’s asked for the video to be removed and has demanded an apology from the person who posted it. The video, which has been viewed more than 3 million times, purports to raise awareness about autism, and claims that Barron exhibits some telltale signs.
It’s no secret that Rosie O’Donnell hates Donald Trump, but she insists that she wasn’t trolling the president-elect when she shared a YouTube video speculating that his 10-year-old son has autism. She has since gone public with her own daughter’s recent diagnosis with the developmental disorder and said that she reposted the clip because she found it “educational and informational.” Trump dines with Romney amid cabinet speculation The president-elect and his guest were greeted by a polite round of applause by the diners at the restaurant.

“I do regret that. Frankly I think many of us will regret that in this congress because it would have been a terrific speed bump, potential emergency break, to have in our system to slow down the confirmation of extreme nominees,” Coons said.
Coons continued saying that blocking President-Elect Trump’s appointments now came down to the will of the American people, arguing that the general public will find his nominees too extreme and sound the alarm with their senators.

WOW! MSNBC Host Calls Out Elizabeth Warren AS “SHRILL,” “UNHINGED” ELIZABETH WARREN: Republicans are taking over Congress, they are taking over the White House, but Republicans do not have majority support in this country. The majority of voters supported Democratic Senate candidates over Republican ones, and the majority supported a Democratic presidential candidate over a Republican one. The American people didn’t give Democrats majority support so we can come back to Washington and play dead. They didn’t send us here to whimper, whine, or grovel.
Black Congressmen Refuse To Condemn Ellison’s Past Proposal For A ‘Black State’ Under the name Keith E. Hakim, Ellison wrote: “Finally, blacks would have the option of choosing their own land base or remaining in the United States. Since black people toiled most diligently in the southeastern section of the United States, this land, quite naturally, would be most suitable. That means Arkansas, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi. Blacks, of course, would not be compelled to move to the black state, and, of course, peaceful whites would not be compelled to move away.”

California regulates cow farts CALIFORNIA DEMOCRATS ARE PERSECUTING HOLSTEINS FOR NORMAL BODILY FUNCTIONS
Despite strong opposition from farmers, Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation in September that for the first time regulates heat-trapping gases from livestock operations and landfills.
Dairy farmers say the new regulations will drive up costs when they’re already struggling with five years of drought, low milk prices and rising labor costs. They’re also concerned about a newly signed law that will boost overtime pay for farmworkers.
But the biggest target is dairy manure, which accounts for about a quarter of the state’s methane emissions.
State regulators want more farmers to reduce emissions with methane digesters, which capture methane from manure in large storage tanks and convert the gas into electricity.
New Hope Dairy, which has 1,500 cows in Sacramento County, installed a $4 million methane digester in 2013, thanks to state grants and a partnership with California Biogas LLC, which operates the system to generate renewable power for the Sacramento Municipal Utility District.

THEY STUFF YOUR MONEY IN THEIR POCKETS AND FOOD IN THEIR FACES
Democrats in Congress feel they have the upper hand on the issue of guns and were quick to frame their gun control arguments as anti-terrorism proposals meant to bolster America’s national security after the Orlando shooting, Continetti said.
The speaker and other members of his leadership team were off Capitol Hill, when the protest began because he was scheduled to make remarks at the American Enterprise Institute, where he shared his plans for healthcare reform in 2017.
“Nobody locked the doors, nobody shut off the lights and nobody did anything to keep food off the floor or to keep people from coming and going,” the source said. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D.-Mass.) brought doughnuts and coffee to her House colleagues, including Rep. John Lewis (D.-Ga.).
The House was gaveled out of session, so the feed to C-SPAN was cut from the control board in the House Recording Studio. House Democrats have live-streamed their protest using Periscope, a social media platform owned by Twitter — even though the use of Periscope is also against House rules.

Dem Charlie Rangel: My Constituents Don’t Need Guns, But I Deserve, Need Protection
WHAT AN ASSHOLE… AND THEY KEEP VOTING HIM IN
New York Democratic Rep. Charlie Rangel says members of Congress “deserve” and “need” people with firearms protecting them in the U.S. Capitol building, but he does not want law-abiding residents in his own district to be armed for self-protection.
Rangel made this distinction when he spoke to The Daily Caller Tuesday night about New York Police Department’s gun permitting bribery scandal.
According to reports, four NYPD officials were arrested Monday for accepting trips, expensive gifts and prostitutes from two Brooklyn men in exchange for police escorts, privileged access and gun licenses, federal prosecutors charged.
Just two votes away from violating your rights. Unbelievable, and they’re going to try again.
Senators voted 58-38 to advance the legislation, falling two votes short of the 60 votes needed. The amendment by Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Richard Burr, R-N.C., would have been added to a federal spending bill that included funding for the FBI. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., switched his vote from “yes” to “no” — a procedural move that will allow him to bring the legislation up again later.
McCONNELL PLANS TO SELL YOU OUT WHEN THE PRICE IS RIGHT
First, there was Elizabeth Warren, who profited from falsely claiming she had Native American ancestry. Then, there was Rachel Dolezal, who profited from falsely claiming she was black.
The newest member of the “fake minority” hit parade is Shaun King, who got an Oprah scholarship, which is only given to black men, and has been running Black Lives Matter, again while falsely claiming to be black.
Now that he’s been outed, Shaun is claiming he is the victim of a “white supremacist conspiracy.” He tells a story about a bunch of redneck bullies beating on him in high school. He claims the attack was both vicious and racially motivated.
“A group of guys in the school beat me within a few inches of my life. I missed the next 18 months of school recovering from three spinal surgeries and fractures to my face and ribs. I won’t even try here to explain the depths and extent of my physical and emotional pain, but it was brutal. I got some counseling for PTSD, learned the hard way that spinal surgeries leave a lasting impact, and finally found myself back on my feet.”
The police report says King suffered only minor injuries. Given the soft, brown curls in the lower left photo and the nice pink skin tone showing in the lower right, I have to conclude Shaun King is a lying liar. In my experience, people who lie a lot tend to be the same kind of weird kids that bully packs target. I knew a boy once who swore to me he had spent his summer driving a tractor trailer in Brazil; we were in 8th grade. He didn’t get bullied, because he was so darn big. But he didn’t have friends either.
Aug 19, 2015: Black Lives Matter’s Shaun King is Rachel Dolezal 3.0 [3:47] Dana makes sense. The other guy is delusional.
Another delusional leftist, JoanMar at DailyKos, says,
“I do not care about his race. If he says he’s black, then as far as I’m concerned, he’s black. … I do not care about him getting a scholarship that was intended for a minority. I only care about the work he’s been doing on behalf of a besieged community.”
Hmmm … I wonder what these champions of “whites who steal minority scholarships” would say if the “work” they were doing was for the GOP or, gasp, the Tea Party.
Bogus claims to American Indian blood are nothing new on the Left.
The claims of Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) to having Native American ancestry were debunked in 2012; she repeated the claims in her 2014 autobiography.
Ward Churchill, an activist professor who drew national attention for describing 9/11 victims as “little Eichmanns.” In 1992, Churchill claimed to be one-eighth Creek and one-sixteenth Cherokee; in 1993, he said he was one-sixteenth Creek and Cherokee; in 2005, he said he is three-sixteenths Cherokee. In 2003, Churchill claimed to be “an enrolled member of the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians”, which group then published an official statement saying, “Mr. Churchill IS NOT a member of the Keetoowah Band.” Genealogists have found “no evidence of a single Indian ancestor” among 142 of Churchill’s direct ancestors.
