New York Daily News hits new low with disgusting Jerusalem embassy opening cover
We don’t want to hear about the maniacs. We don’t believe in giving publicity to publicity hounds, and we don’t want to hear about their self-barbarism, either. We wanted to see Ivanka, and the Daily News went to the bathroom all over her picture, trying to pin something on her that she had nothing to do with, all out of an appalling spitefulness against President Trump.

Donald Trump is a businessman, not a politician. That fact, as much as perhaps any other, is why he bested 16 other primary foes and stunned the nation by besting the heir apparent, a sociopathic liar who never met a dollar she didn’t covet. Make no mistake, he is a far, far better alternative to the evil Cankles was prepared to wreak. Still and all, Trump’s forte is making deals. The republicans gave him nothing. He did away with a lot of onerous regulations and the climate change scheme through executive order, but was so eager to appear presidential he’d have signed any legislation they sent him.
They gave him nothing. No border wall funding, no tax cuts, not even the so-called ‘skinny repeal’ of Obamacare. Whether out of spite or cowardice, they have fought him on almost anything. So, Trump decided if they won’t deal with him, the democrats will. And they did. Democrats had absolutely no power to stop anything, and Trump handed them the power to attach amendment to any legislation while denying anything to republicans. DACA will be the first amendment rider with making Obamacare permanent close behind. The dems now have the best of both worlds… they get to have their own way and trash Trump like they always do. Witness the savagery displayed after Sessions announced the ending of the DREAM act, only to have Trump gave Congress 6 months to fondle each other after which he will “revisit” it.
Will Democrats Take ‘Yes’ For An Answer on DACA, or Demagogue Compromises to Protect a Wedge Issue? IF YOU DON’T KNOW THE ANSWER YOU’RE NOT PAYING ATTENTION
Unforgivable: Donald Trump just made Chuck Schumer POTUS The president’s total capitulation occurred in a Wednesday meeting with congressional leaders from both parties. Earlier, Minority Leaders Pelosi and Schumer proposed a plan to tie Hurricane Harvey relief to a short-term debt ceiling increase until mid-December. President Trump agreed to support the Democratic plan. To make matters even worse, the president said Wednesday that his administration will always “automatically” agree on increasing the debt ceiling.
YOU CAN KISS THE 15% CORPORATE TAX RATE GOODBYE. DEMOCRATS WANT NO PART OF IT AND THE REPUBLICANS CAN NO LONGER DO ANYTHING.
GOP leaders ‘shocked’ following Trump deal with Democrats Several Republicans briefed on the meeting said that Trump, who has been absent a major legislative achievement for his first seven months in office, was hungry for a deal.
“The President was in deal-cutting mode,” a Republican familiar with the meeting told CNN. “He was sick of this fight.”
TRUMP Goes Around Do-Nothing Republican Leaders and Strikes Debt Limit Deal with Pelosi-Schumer
During a meeting with congressional leaders at the White House, Trump surprised his GOP colleagues when he granted Democrats’ request that Republicans pass a Hurricane Harvey relief package with a three-month debt increase. Top White House officials and GOP leaders had spent the past few days urging Republicans to raise the debt ceiling through the 2018 midterm election.
How Trump Caved To Dems Over Debt Ceiling, Govt. Funding “We had a very good meeting with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. We agreed to a three-month extension on debt ceiling, which they consider to be sacred — very important — always we’ll agree on debt ceiling automatically because of the importance of it,” Trump told reporters Wednesday aboard Air Force One.
Trump’s Deal with Democrats Is a Warning to Republicans — Establishment and Conservative Alike The deal is a warning to Republicans — primarily to the party establishment, which has fought Trump at every turn, but also to conservative Republicans, who have long worried about Trump shifting leftwards.
By working with Democrats, Trump can bypass the Republican leadership, GOP moderates, and personal foes like Sen. John McCain (R-AZ). However, it also means that he can cobble deals together between liberal Republicans and the Democrat minority, leaving conservatives out in the cold.

Ivanka Trump Pitches Conservative Leaders on Doubling Child Tax Credit Trump did not provide numbers on what the policy would cost overall, or whether it would apply to all taxpayers or just those who are below a certain income bracket. The initiative is one previously alluded to in an April White House document that outlined the administration’s vision for tax reform. Part of the appeal of the tax credit is that it benefits regular working families, according to meeting attendees who spoke to Politico.

Congress has to pass an emergency funding bill for the victims of Hurricane Harvey in Louisiana and Texas and raise the debt ceiling. They also need to pass a budget or a continuing resolution to prevent a government shutdown. The group also discussed the future of DACA recipients and Trump’s six-month window allowing Congress to come up with a solution before the program ends.
Ann Coulter: We Made Donald %#&@ Trump PRESIDENT — What Else Can We Do?
Congress has tried to sneak through amnesties three times in a little more than a decade. Every time, the American people somehow found out — despite the best efforts of the press — rose up in a rage and killed the proposed bills.
After a much-needed weekend respite we’re back, slaving over a hot keyboard. As Sgt. Joe Friday once said of being an LA cop: ‘It’s an endless, glamor-less, thankless job that’s gotta be done.’
Friday was spent on beautiful Lake Geneva with a good friend. Got lots of fish and too much sun. Saturday I had a tire go flat while I was delivering papers. Fortunately, I made it home and Miss Isabel’s dad is a mechanic who came over and fixed it.
Saturday night we enjoyed chicken and mashed taters with genuine chicken gravy and fresh green beans with our best friends. Yesterday RJ played his last regular season baseball game. He’s already practicing for Freshman football and DW’s son came by with pizza last night.
I glanced at the news infrequently, as nothing ever changes much. My queue runneth over with news tidbits and I’ll try to cover some of the more notable things.
First, the G20 summit went as most people expected. One news reader on the radio said it was more like “the G 19 and Donald Trump.” It doesn’t take a genius to assume the sworn enemies of truth, the American media, will savage Trump from pillar to post no matter what he does.
FROM THE NEW YORK SLIMES:
At G-20, world aligns against Trump policies ranging from free trade to climate change
THE UNITED STATES REFUSED TO PLAY ALONG WITH THE CLIMATE CHANGE HOAX AND SURRENDER BILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO THESE POMPOUS PRICKS.
The tensions were a measure of Trump’s sharp break with previous U.S. policies. They were also a warning signal of Washington’s diminished clout, as the leaders of the other 19 nations gathered in Hamburg mulled whether to fix their signatures to statements that would exclude Trump or to find some sort of compromise. Two European officials said they were leaning toward a united front against Washington.

TRUMP KILLED IT at G20 — But You Wouldn’t Know it Unless You Read the Foreign Press.

President Trump won on climate and trade and energy production.
Trump shuns G20 lapel pin worn by other leaders, struts US flag instead
AS SOON AS THIS HAPPENED THE MEDIA WHORES WERE SCREAMING: OBAMA DID IT FIRST!!
(For the record, former President Barack Obama wore an American flag pin to the G20 summit in 2016.) The G20 motto reads, “Our task is to shape the interconnected world.”
Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany took issue with Trump walking away from the Paris accord on climate change.
LIBERALS COME UNGLUED After Ivanka Briefly Sits in For Her Father at G20 Session
Ivanka Trump briefly filled in for her father at a G20 session and the liberals are throwing a tantrum. This practice is common among leaders at the G20 but it didn’t matter to liberal pundits.
“Ivanka was sitting in the back and then briefly joined the main table when the president had to step out and the president of the World Bank started talking as the topic involved areas such as African development, areas that will benefit from the facility just announced by the World Bank,” the official said.
Brian Fallon, a CNN political commentator and former spokesman for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, responded to the news with a tweet: “I’m sure Republicans would have taken it in stride if Chelsea Clinton was deputized to perform head of state duties,” he wrote.
Barack Hussein Obama was the first president to take the chairmanship of the U.N. Security Council which many argued is a violation of section 9 of the Constitution yet the media cheered him on as ‘King of the world’.
The liberals also insulted Ivanka Trump by saying she’s only a shoe designer or a handbag designer so she has no business being there.
IVANKA: You ceded your nation to fascist thugs and told German women they should stay home if they didn’t want to get raped.
Trump defends the West — and the Left screams foul Imagine that President Trump gave a speech praising a strong Europe.
Imagine that he called forthrightly on Russia to stop its aggression in Ukraine and join the community of responsible nations.
Imagine that he embraced the mutual-defense commitment, so-called Article 5, of NATO.
He said that large economies and fearsome weapons aren’t enough for our survival; we need “strong families and strong values,” and “bonds of history, culture and memory.”
It argued that we must demonstrate civilizational self-confidence, the will to defend our values.
Finally, it unapologetically invoked “the West,” which, Trump noted, writes symphonies, rewards brilliance, values freedom and human dignity and has created a truly great community of nations.
All of this strikes the ears of Trump’s progressive critics the wrong way. They believe that nations are best constrained by multinational or supra-national institutions like the EU. They think that all the non-material things that lend our lives meaning — God, family, national loyalty — are atavistic, overrated or best not spoken of too much.

The G19 got schooled.
Hamburg (AFP) – US President Donald Trump won key concessions on climate and trade Saturday from world leaders at the most fractious G20 summit to date, in exchange for preserving the unity of the club of major industrialised and emerging economies.
In a final statement agreed by all 20 economies, 19 members including Russia, China and the European Union acknowledged Trump’s decision to go his own way on taking the US out of the 2015 Paris climate accord.
‘I won’t forget what you said!’ Trump tells Pope after Francis urges him to be an ‘olive tree for peace’ at Vatican meeting – where he jokes with Melania about what she feeds the president

Pope Francis Looking Super Sad With The Trumps Is A Divine New Meme
Trump’s differences in opinion with the pontiff over issues such as immigration and climate change are well documented. But it would be unfair to say the pope looked completely forlorn throughout the president’s visit.
Reuters news agency noted how he “smiled faintly” as he greeted Trump, but also pointed out that the pontiff was “not as gregarious as he sometimes is with visiting heads of state.”

Now for the regular stuff. Egypt scuttles UN vote on Israeli settlement after Trump warning OBAMA WAS GOING TO LET THE CONDEMNATION STAND… TRUMP DROPPED A DIME ON EGYPTIAN PRESIDENT SIS, WHO PULLED THE RESOLUTION. HE KNOWS THE DONALD DON’T PLAY.
Egyptian officials scrapped a plan to proceed with a United Nations Security Council vote condemning the construction of Israeli settlements, following pushback from Israeli officials and President-elect Trump.
Israeli settlement construction drew condemnation from the State Department earlier this year, in addition to the rebukes of more customary critics, raising fears in Israel and among congressional Republicans that President Obama might not veto a resolution on the matter in the waning days of his presidency.

Everyone should be treated with respect — unless you’re a Republican Thursday, Ivanka Trump and her family were accosted by Dan Goldstein, a lawyer from Brooklyn, who yelled at her that her father, who has yet to take office, was “ruining the country.” It wasn’t a spontaneous outburst. Goldstein’s husband had tweeted from the JetBlue terminal at JFK Airport that Goldstein was “chasing” Ivanka and her family to “harass” them.
