During MSNBC’s coverage of the London attack yesterday, Matt Bradley expressed more concern about the violence helping conservative politicians than about the harm it had done to the victims!
Bradley also downplayed any possible connection between the attack and Islamic terrorism, saying that MI-5 had found no terror link so far.
Minutes later, London police announced there was a terror link.
Meanwhile, the political editor for the British magazine New Statesman tweeted:
Never mind that they all spilled the same color blood.
Former Obama advisor David Plouffe has been fined$90,000 by the Chicago Board of Ethics for illegally lobbying Mayor Rahm Emanuel on behalf of his post-White House employer, the Uber taxi company. His Democrat contacts made it easy for him to lobby for his employer with the Democrat mayor. The problem is that Plouffe never registered as a lobbyist.
Some college students are saying they will castrate themselves if Trump builds the wall. Yeah, right. And all those celebrities were going to leave the country if Trump got elected.
Judicial Watch is planning to sue the FBI, CIA, and NSA if they do not hand over records related to the wiretapping of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.
More FAKE NEWS: Journos are claiming Trump referred to a terror attack in Sweden that never happened! Oh noes! Except Trump NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT A TERROR ATTACK. He said Sweden is having terrible problems because of all the refugees they took in, which is true.
Reuters interviewed a captured ISIS soldier who says he reads the Koran all day in his tiny jail cell to become a better person. He also says he raped more than 200 women from Iraqi minorities, something he said was encouraged and even considered virtuous by ISIS leaders. A total of 5,270 Yazidis were abducted last year, and at least 3,144 are still being held.
A woman Obama appointed to the FEC has submitted her resignation. She’s apparently been a no show at her job anyway since, it appears, Trump was elected. What a shocker. In 2014, she made an attempt to impose FEC regulations on online political web sites, including Drudge.
The Southern Poverty Law Center “reports” that anti-Muslim hate groups shot up from only 34 in 2015 to 101 in 2016. They got this faux figure by counting the 45 chapters of a single organization as 45 groups. This same group was listed as a single group in the 2015 report and it’s not a hate group. They also counted a bar sign as a hate group, because it had a politically incorrect message on it for a while. They also counted as “hate groups” a store that had posted a sign saying they wouldn’t sell to Clinton supporters or Muslims and an artist who drew a cartoon mocking Mohammed. They also listed conservative bloggers, the David Horowitz Freedom Center, the American College of Pediatricians, the Family Research Council, and the Jewish Political Action Committee as hate groups.
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.’
President Trump: We Are at Risk Because of Legal Fight Over Travel Restrictions
On Wednesday morning President Trump spoke to US law enforcement leaders in Washington D.C.
The president opened his speech reading the federal law that gives him the right to suspend entry of any class of aliens into the United States.
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.
Had a checkup today. The good news is, my pacemaker’s doing fine. The bad news is the day ain’t over. Had lunch with DW at the tres chic Taco Bell. (I have a weakness for gordita supremes.)
There is the usual cascade of items today, but there are so many videos I thought I’d post some here and leave the heady stuff for the comment section.
The Super Bowl is Sunday, in case you haven’t heard. Not decided if I’m going to post any of the hopelessly overpriced ads. The New England Patriots’ owner, Robert Kraft, the coach, Bill Bellichek, and the star quarterback, Tom Brady are all friends of the President. Brady is getting all kinds of grief and even people who hate football are certain to tune in, in the hopes of seeing him get hurt for his unforgivable behavior.
To cleanse the palate, imagine archaeologists thousands of years from now sifting through the digital rubble of our civilization in search of scant bits of cultural data — and finding this. They would probably conclude that it’s newsreel footage from an esoteric tribal war fought long ago by lunatic warrior-poets, speaking ecstatic gibberish as they slaughter each other.
Which, pretty much, yeah.
Relatedly, how many times this weekend will various media remind us that Tom Brady is palsies with the president and that that’s a doubleplusungood thing to be?

Sharpton: Schumer Needs to Give Republicans ‘The Big Payback’ Over Gorsuch Nomination
Two days ago, President Trump signed an Executive Order about visa entry procedures and refugees from Syria. Although leftists’ heads are exploding,their claims are either totally exaggerated or flat out FAKE NEWS.
I have read the Executive Order and summarized it below in simple terms.
First, there there is no “Muslim Ban.”There is a postponement of entry from 7 countries (Iraq, Syria, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen) previously identified by the Obama administration as posing extraordinary risks. Most of the Muslim countries are not on the list.
Second, the list has nothing to do with Trump’s foreign business concerns.It was PRESIDENT OBAMA who first restricted visa waivers for those seven Muslim-majority countries. Funny how nobody complained or marched in protest, but now Trump does it and heads are exploding?
Third, it’s a suspension, not a ban.Trump has ordered an immediate evaluation of our visa procedures to better screen out those who would pose a risk to our safety.
Fourth, the suspension does not affectforeign nationals traveling on diplomatic visas, North Atlantic Treaty Organization visas, C-2 visas for travel to the United Nations, and G-1, G-2, G-3, and G-4 visas. Also, it allows waivers on a case-by-case basis.
Fifth, they’re also going to create a biometric entry-exit system to track travelers,as was recommended by the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States.
Sixth, refugees will be limited to 50,000 for 2017 and the feds will no longer dump them on state and local communities without their consent.
Seventh, the Attorney General is going to begin collecting and making publicinformation regarding foreign nationals who have been charged with or convicted of terrorism-related offenses and/or gender-based violence against women, including honor killings.
There’s nothing here that should warrant all the hyperbole and sign waving. The order is about keeping Americans safe from people who want to hurt us. Anybody who has a problem with that needs to get his head examined.
TEXT OF January 27, 2017: Executive Order signed by President Trump
PROTECTING THE NATION FROM FOREIGN TERRORIST ENTRY INTO THE UNITED STATES
CtH 1/29/17: For some reason, this one is not posted yet at the White House web site. Maybe the web gremlins don’t work weekends. CNN says this is the full text.
PLEASE JOIN ME in praying for binding of evil forcesand multitudinous blessings upon all the good folks attending or providing security for Inauguration Day.
Part Two of Project Veritas’ undercover video of Disrupt J20’s plans: Chain the Trains & Shut Down DC During Inauguration [10:46]
I saw someone on my Facebook feed saying that she truly fears Donald Trump. I don’t get it. We don’t do this kind of thing!! This is the crap the LEFT pulls.
Compare the two inaugurations of George W. Bush with the two inaugurations of Barack H. Obama.
Bush and his wife had to ride in an armored car, because protesters were dangerously hostile. I have photos of their car getting egged.
Obama and his wife WALKED down Constitution Ave. both times, smiling and waving and perfectly safe.
By now you’re all aware of the heinous act of savagery committed against a mentally handicapped white man by four mindless animals that are so common among the urban parasites. Four thugs have been arrested and the excuses have begun about how it isn’t a hate crime, blah, blah, blah. Turns out it wasn’t the first act of unspeakable cruelty by these subhumans. I had a number of links to post but I decided to forego posting anything about them since there’s really nothing new about it. Black on white crime has skyrocketed since Obama gave it his tacit approval. Hopefully it may ebb just a bit when Trump takes office, but, as they say, a leopard doesn’t change it’s spots and violence bred of ignorance and hate feeds upon itself and reproduces more grist for the racial hatred mill at a disturbing rate. Therefore I’m just going to let things be for now. There’s plenty of other news going on.
Obamacare Repeal Budget Resolution Passes Senate With 51 Votes THANK YOU, HARRY REID
The resolution, which used the reconciliation process to repeal elements of Obamacare with only 51 votes, was introduced Tuesday by Sen. Mike Enzi (R., Wyo.), the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee.
Democrats: GOP Wants To ‘Make America Sick Again’ This is similar to Alan Grayson’s — Republicans want you to ‘die quickly.’
It back to the old scare tactic of throwing granny off a cliff. This is why Dems lost 1000 seats in the last few elections.
[CtH: By Schumer’s reasoning, my kidneys failed because of Obamacare. So if the Republicans repeal it, I should start to get better!]
Earnest said Obama would not factor Trump’s tweet into his decision-making on the prison. Trump, he said, would have “an opportunity to implement the policy that he believes will be more effective when he takes office on January 20.”
NYAH, NYAH, NYAH… YOU CAN’T STOP US.
[CtH: It’s so obvious what a Big Fat Lie their “let’s have a smooth transition” is. It feels to me like every time Obama says this, he’s really saying, “Don’t demolish my legacy all at once!” Loser.]
Obama is going out in a blaze of self-interest Of all Barack Obama’s costumes, the most ill-fitting is that of the hawk. The guise doesn’t work for all sorts of ideological and historical reasons. Plus there’s the fact that he’s rushing to put on the outfit as he’s heading out the door.
Trump said Democrats, led by “head clown Chuck Schumer,” understand how bad the law is, but they’re not trying to work and fix it. Instead, all they’re doing is blaming, he added.
[CtH: As an unwilling constituent of Schumer’s, I second Trump’s remark. That inane comment about repealing Obamacare making America sick again was almost as bad as Pelosi’s “we have to pass it to find out what’s in it” statement.]
MSNBC host Rachel Maddow said Wednesday night that if Donald Trump ever appeared on her nighttime show, she would ask the president-elect if he intends on sending her or anyone else she knows “to a camp.”
YOU GOT TWO CHANCES OF TRUMP GOING ON THAT SOPHISTRY YOU CALL A SHOW… SLIM AND NONE. FAT TOOK THE TRAIN.
Hollywood Moonbat Nancy Sinatra Apologizes To “The Man Who Saved America,” Barack Obama, For The “Unprecedented Racism” He Faced.
YOU HAD ONE HIT RECORD IN ABOUT 1965 AND YOUR DADDY WAS A GANGSTER’S BUDDY. KINDLY PUT ON THESE BOOTS AND WALK ON OFF THE STAGE AND STAY THERE.
[CtH: I would really like to know what standard they use for saying he “saved America.” We were never in any danger of being invaded and conquered; he’s overseen the worst recession recovery in history; and he’s gotten us into more wars than any previous president. Did I miss anything?]
President-elect Donald Trump has picked Katie Walsh as deputy to chief of staff Reince Priebus (ryns PREE’-bus). Walsh worked for Priebus at the Republican National Committee and helped with party fundraising.
Rick Dearborn, who used to work on Capitol Hill, is taking over a top job dealing with Congress.
Joe Hagin – who’s worked in three GOP White Houses – is coming on board as deputy chief of staff for operations.
“On May 7, 2015, Donald Trump tweeted, ‘I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid.'”
[CtH: Earth to Bernie … the changes to Obamacare will not affect Medicare or Medicaid. Duh. The changes are about making free market health insurance more affordable by allowing health savings accounts, by removing state line bans (like we have in NY where Blue Cross/Blue Shield has a monopoly and our rates have been sky high for decades), and by allowing people to deduct health insurance premiums from their income tax. Employers have been allowed to deduct the premiums they pay on employees, but employees could not opt out of their employers’ plans and then deduct premiums. Nor could the self-employed deduct their premiums! It’s totally unfair AND it keeps health insurance tied to employment, which was a BIG factor in problems Dems cried about needing O’care for — i.e., insurance gaposis between jobs, with attendant waiting during new job start up periods and pre-existing condition exclusions. Health insurance should be totally private market, not tied to employment, where employees are forced into a plan that may not suit their needs and where they lose coverage if they get laid off or decide to change jobs, go back to school, move with a spouse to a new area, etc.]
Video of the infamous encounter between Casebolt, who is white, and the then 15-year-old Becton, who is black, brought national attention to McKinney and Craig Ranch, the neighborhood where it happened. In June 2016, Becton’s attorney asked the City of McKinney for $2.5 million to avoid a lawsuit, but the city didn’t take the deal, according to The Dallas Morning News. Later that month, a Collin County grand jury declined to indict Casebolt, who resigned four days after the party.
Clinton Mulling NYC Mayoral Run
Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is “talking about” running for New York City mayor, Newsmax reports. (SORRY… ONLY IMAGE WITH HILLARY’S NAME IN IT I HAVE RIGHT NOW)
It has only been 57 days since President-elect Donald Trump defeated Clinton. During the election slog, Clinton, 69, collapsed getting into a Secret Service van, had multiple coughing fits during speeches and seemed to have trouble walking up steps at a rally in Lake Worth, Fla.
“If she ran, she’d win,” a Newsmax source said.
SHE SHOULD… DEMOCRATS OUTNUMBER REPUBLICANS 3-1 IN NEW YORK. THAT’S WHY SHE DECIDED TO RUN OR THE SENATE THERE. IT’S A STACKED DECK.
Below is just part of the post at Hope ‘n Change, which has been somewhat modified by CtH. You can see the original in full at the URL below.
JANUARY: John “You Rang?” Kerry downgraded our nation’s goal from “destroying, degrading, or disrupting” the maniacal killers to merely “denting” them. He apparently hopes to make Hillary look like only the second worst Secretary of State ever.
FEBRUARY: Beloved conservative Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia suddenly dies. Obama decides to skip Scalia’s funeral owing to an absolutely unavoidable scheduling conflict involving a critical tee time.
MARCH: A series of deadly explosions rocked Brussels, targeting the Belgian capital’s main airport and metro system. ISIS claimed responsibility. Rather than doing diddly-squat about the carnage in Brussels, Obama attended a baseball game with new BFF Raul Castro, then jetted off to Argentina where he performed a stiff and rather bloodless tango at a state dinner.
APRIL: The tone deaf president assembles a group of allegedly popular rappers to help with his “Brother’s Keeper” initiative which aims to keep young minority men out of the criminal justice system. During the president’s remarks, rapper Rick Ross’s court-ordered ankle bracelet went off. It turns out that the man selected by Mr. Obama to serve as an exemplary racial role model was required to wear the device until his trial date for aggravated assault and battery, pistol-whipping, and kidnapping. According to Rolling Stone, other role models at the meeting included Ludacris (left album graphic) and Nicki Minaj (right album graphic).
MAY: By a significant margin, Hoosiers go to the polls to declare that they find Trump to be the candidate who is outstanding in the field. And trust us, Indiana folk (like us!) love jokes about fields. Cruz drops out of the race, practically guaranteeing Trump’s nomination.
JUNE: On June 12, 2016, Omar Mateen shot and killed 49 people and wounded 53 others at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. During the shooting, Mateen called 911 and swore allegiance to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. After a three-hour standoff, Mateen was shot and killed by police.
JANUARY: “I think that by the end of 2016, our goal of very seriously denting Daesh in Iraq and Syria and of trying to have an impact on Mosul (in Iraq) and Raqa (in Syria) will be achieved,” Kerry told reporters on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, using an alternative name for ISIS.
FEBRUARY: Obama had no public schedule on the day of Scalia’s funeral. The last Supreme Court justice to die in office was Chief Justice William Rehnquist in 2005. President George W. Bush gave the eulogy at his funeral.
MARCH: After delivering brief remarks on the terrorist attacks, Obama went to a baseball game. He defended his decision, saying to cancel would have played into the terrorists’ hands. “The whole premise of terrorism is to try to disrupt people’s ordinary lives.” Plus, you know, baseball. Then, Obama went to Argentina where he danced a tango with a professional dancer. While Stilton referred to this as “pelvis grinding”, I noticed the president kept a LOT of air between his pelvis and his partner’s. Well, Michelle was there, after all. And we saw in 2013, when they attended Nelson Mandela’s funeral (yes, he did go to THAT funeral), how she reacted to him getting too flirty with another woman. Pelvis grinding? Not gonna happen.
