In the second year of the Trump administration, there were Russia conspiracies galore (John Heilemann asked if Devin Nunes was a “Russian agent”), insults to throw around (“Morning Joe” host Mika Brzezinski called the secretary of state a “wannabe dictator’s buttboy”) and fates to ponder (Katy Tur wondered if her entire life was “pointless” because of climate change).
Donny Deutsch said Brett Kavanaugh would never reach the Supreme Court. Lawrence O’Donnell called the U.S. Senate an “unfixable crime against democracy” because it confirmed Kavanaugh. Chris Matthews melted down over Anthony Kennedy’s retirement from the Supreme Court and yelled at Steve Kornacki. Michael Steele warned viewers “your kids could be next” to go into “concentration camps” at the southern border.
As long as there’s not a socialist democrat in the White House these blow dried, preening pricks will gripe as if anybody cares about their opinion.
7 Times Hollywood Celebs Wished Violence Against Trump in 2018
Once again, several Hollywood celebrities spent the year fantasizing about violence against President Donald Trump, his family, members of his administration, and his supporters.
While down from the more than dozen celebrities who imagined violence against Trump in 2017, the Hollywood hate was still savage from the likes of Jim Carrey, John Legend, and Rosie O’Donnell.
The democrats have been wildly successful at keeping the majority of the black population ignorant and lazy by forcing them into sub standard schools. These people don’t realize that’s why they’re all set against charter schools where some of their victims may get a decent education and come to realize they’ve been played for fools for almost 60 years.
Walmart Heirs Promote Charter Schools Among Black Community
Charter schools, which are publicly funded and privately operated, are often located in urban areas with large black populations, intended as alternatives to struggling city schools. Black enrollment in charters has doubled over the course of a decade, to more than 760,000 students as of 2015-16, according to the latest federal data, but the rise also has been marked by concerns about racial segregation, inconsistent student outcomes, and the hollowing-out of neighborhood public schools.
While some black leaders see charters as a safer, better alternative in their communities, a deep rift of opinion was exposed by a 2016 call for a moratorium on charters by the NAACP, a longtime skeptic that expressed concerns about school privatization, transparency and accountability issues. The Black Lives Matter movement is also among those that have demanded charter school growth be curbed.
Financial analyst describes Fed chair Powell as ‘train wreck under the Christmas tree’
Jerome Powell is a partisan bastard who never ran a company but was so determined to harm Donald Trump as severely as he could that he didn’t care if he crippled the stock market and cost investors, including many working class Americans who have 401(k)s tied to it many trillions of dollars. He shares the same kind of seek and destroy tunnel vision the rest of the left are infected with.
The U.S. markets in December have taken a beating, posting the biggest losses for the month since 1931.
“Here’s a guy who claims he’s a businessman in Powell, and he’s a country club privileged person from Princeton who has never run a business, never been an economist, making some major mistakes,” Flickinger said.
“I want a really good credentialed person running the Fed instead of getting this trainwreck under the Christmas tree,” he added.
House Democrats Are Lining Up Behind What Could Be The Largest Expansion Of Government In Decades
Democrats are lining up to support Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “Green New Deal.”
It calls for creating a House committee to draft legislation to fight global warming and turn the U.S. economy into something akin to what Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders envisions.
The proposal would require the largest expansion of government since the Great Society or New Deal, costing tens of trillions of dollars and could be a preview of what policies the Democratic Party will back in the 2020 elections.
BORDER WALL: “The wall is the will of the American people.”— In 2016, I remember listening to Campaign Donald talking about his Big Beautiful Wall and thinking, “WHATever.” But you know … the longer and louder and harder the Left fights to keep it from being built, the more sold I am on The Donald’s vision. We’re tired of government standing with illegals over citizens! Build The Wall!! MAGA!!!
RAND PAUL FINDS MORE THAN $114 MILLION IN WASTE: Here are just a few places where we could free up some money for the wall … NOT studying the sexual habits of quails on cocaine: $874,503 … NOT supporting “legislative priorities” in Libya: $1,000,000 … NOT supporting Egyptian tourism: $18,000,000 … NOT studying daydreaming (NIH): $2,488,153.
TRUMP DERANGED MEDIA: On Christmas Day, while Mr. and Mrs. Trump were flying to Iraq to visit troops, NBC and MSNBC published “President Trump becomes first president since 2002 not to visit troops at Christmastime” with a photo of President Bush visiting a soldier in a hospital bed. Cuz we all know how much NBC and MSNBC admired W … right?
NOT SURPRISING: They need someone to tell them what to do — Chuck Schumer is a spineless weasel and Nancy Pelosi seems to be suffering from some form of dementia. If only we knew what unelected individual or body was actually pulling on their puppet strings. And for the record, Fed Chair Powell is the one causing the stock market to dive and SecDef Mattis wasn’t fired, he’s retiring.
WHILE DEMOCRATS SHUT DOWN GOVERNMENT: Trump shut down “catch and release”— On Dec 20, 2018, Homeland announced the United States will begin the process of invoking Section 235(b)(2)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act requiring aliens to wait for immigration court dates outside our borders.

ALGORE’s INCONVENIENT TRUTH: Twelve years of being wrong — Former Vice President Al Gore won an Oscar and Nobel Prize for sounding the alarm in book and film as a Climate Control Caped Crusader. He also got filthy rich wrongly predicting Rising Sea Levels (yet he purchased a beachfront mansion!), Increased Tornadoes (they’ve been declining for decades), A New Ice Age in Europe (never happened), South Sahara Drying Up (never happened), Massive Flooding in China and India (never happened), Melting Arctic (2015 had the largest refreeze in years), Polar Bear Extinction (they are increasing), Temperature Increases Due to CO2 (there has been no significant rising for over 18 years), Katrina a Foreshadow of the Future (nope), and The Earth Would be in a “True Planetary Emergency” Within a Decade Unless Drastic Action Taken to Reduce Greenhouse Gasses (his home consumes uses 34 times more energy than the national average).
He’s right: The Left hates Christians, especially those of the Catholic persuasion — As Democrat senators attacked a judicial nominee for belonging to the Knights of Columbus, New York State was putting left-wing politics above the needs of orphans. Empire State officials have threatened to close down New Hope Family Services in Syracuse, New York, if they don’t stop placing children only in homes that have a married mother and father.
For an open-minded, fair-thinking person (IOW, not Nancy Pelosi), building the wall should obviously be the most compassionate, sensible and moral thing our nation could do in addressing concerns over our southern border. Here are five reasons why:
Building a strong border boundary would allow more people from Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to staff the designated ports of entry, so as to process more quickly and efficiently those seeking asylum, as well as those hoping to find jobs in America. As it is today, thousands of personnel from CBP and the Department of Homeland Security have to patrol our very long, open and porous border with Mexico. Democrats, Republicans and others rightly bemoan the plight of desperate people seeking freedom and safety in America. Why would one not want to enable more of these people to have their cases resolved expeditiously?
By having an effective, permanent wall, the government could actual increase the number and locations of designated ports of entry, again allowing more people to be processed in a timely manner. By stopping illegal entry into the country where there is no barrier, those with nefarious reasons to enter would more likely forego an attempted entry, allowing for those with legitimate and understandable reasons to come here and to be granted entrance more quickly.
The flow of illegal drugs across the border is both a moral issue and a matter of life and death. Millions of people in the United States are victims of drug addiction and death due to the relative ease with which drug cartels move drugs and cash back and forth over the border. While some drug smugglers are caught trying to enter at a port of entry, many simply walk or drive across where there is no barrier.
Human traffickers routinely transport people across the border. Many of their victims end up in the sex trade or in forced-labor situations. Most of them are minors. Desperate and trusting parents in Mexico and Central America often pay thousands of dollars to these traffickers, hoping to secure a better life for their children in America—only to have this happen. Traffickers also take advantage of runaway or orphaned children. This is a blight on our nation’s soul and a human tragedy that is repeated virtually every day. What kind of misguided thinking would not see this as an enormous moral issue? Based on this alone, a border wall to stop this victimization of innocent people is a moral imperative. As serious as the matter of drug-smuggling is, human smuggling is even more stark and gut-wrenching. Even if this were the only reason to have a strong border—it would be sufficient to justify such an undertaking.
Finally, if one believes our government has a moral obligation to protect its citizens, the national security implications for border security are indicative of the need for a border wall. Hundreds of illegal immigrants apprehended at our southern border each year are not from Central or South America, but rather are from the Middle East and Africa. After the events of 9/11, one of the findings of the investigation following the attacks was that the United States had a “failure of imagination.” We simply did not imagine the lengths our enemies would go to attack our nation. We could not grasp the idea that they would be so creative as to thwart our transportation system and use planes full of people as guided missiles. What are we overlooking at our southern border? What people, and with what weapons, would exploit our porous and ineffective border to plan and launch another devastating attack on the homeland?

I like to make my gifts, so I’ve been too busy with Christmas crafting to post a Bits & Bytes for several days. But today, Dearest is with his sibs, the Buzzers are with Daddy Buzz’s clan, the Texans are probably comatose after their first Christmas season as retailers, and the former Marines are at home with their preemie who is still too fragile to leave home. I do have a gf coming for dinner, so you don’t have to feel sorry for me. 🙂 I just wanted to explain why I’m posting this on Christmas!
TISSUE ALERT!
BUILD THE WALL: Voters want it, Trump promised it— And according to this article, there are sources of revenue in the executive branch that the president has authority to use without congressional approval. And he has the authority to build the wall without congressional approval. Wouldn’t it be SWEET if we got the wall DESPITE the NeverTrumper/Democrat blockade?!
TEAMSTERS SUCK: Seasonal UPS workers got the shaft for Christmas — The Teamsters up and decided everybody has to pay their $500 union initiation fee up front, in one lump sum, even if they’re just seasonal workers who were only brought on to handle the December rush. One woman say she worked 41 hours that week, many of them during the night, and ended up with just $14.52 in her pay check. The stinkin’ union took the rest … then blamed UPS. I’ve said it before and now I’ll say it again: These big unions have become the problem they were started to stop.
Ridiculous. You cannot convince me that any of the food I eat is made from PETA members.
If you consider this harrowing, I can say with confidence you’ve never raised a child.
There’s a good chance you’ve eaten something grown in manure.
There’s a near 100% chance you’ve eaten salad contaminated with human feces.
You cannot spell “Eat broccoli” without “E coli.”
BILL O’REILLY: On Syria pull out — It happens that I was at the White House yesterday when the Syria story hit. President Trump announcing US ground troops will no longer operate in that country because ISIS has been largely defeated.
The media’s negative reaction to the announcement is kind of strange because it supported President Obama’s policy of letting ISIS run wild, which the killers certainly did. Correct me if I’m wrong but I did not hear media cries for American forces on the ground to crush the terror group back then.
But now Donald Trump is President and everything he does is baaaad.
The policy of keeping peace in Syria should be assumed by the United Nations. But that won’t happen. So President Trump is pulling troops back because he doesn’t like to deploy American soldiers on foreign soil. He’s made that quite clear in the past.
US forces will, however, be close in case violence once again develops in Syria. So why all the hysteria?
MSM: Hypocrisy on Mattis retirement — The unhinged media’s shrieking over Mattis’ decision to retire ignores the face that, when he retires in February after two straight years of media hell, he’ll have outlasted three out of four Obama SECDEFs. The fourth one, Robert Gates, was a hold over from Bush. He lasted longer under Obama than Mattis under Trump, BUT as soon as he stepped down, he slammed Obama’s leadership.
KARMA: She’s a bitch — A Hamas terrorist was killed when the tunnel he was building under his home to attack Israel collapsed on him. It is common for these guys to hide among and underneath civilian structures, using civilians as human shields. In this case, it was the man’s own family. I hope he’s enjoying his “virgins.”
LIBERALS SHOW THEIR TRUE COLORS: Good will toward all? Not them! — Those paragons of tolerance, diversity, and compassion for the differently abled have been heaping the vileness in their hearts and minds on to the triple-amputee veteran, Brian Kolfage, who started the immensely successful GoFundMe campaign to raise money for a border wall and on multiple conservative women. I’ll spare you the details. It’s Christmas!
ABORTION: Ohio Update –– Governor John Kasich has VETOED a bill that would have prohibited abortions after an unborn baby’s heartbeat is detectable. A baby’s heart starts beating during the fifth week of pregnancy, but usually cannot be detected until about 12 weeks into pregnancy. Kasich SIGNED a bill to ban dismemberment abortions, where the abortionist reaches into the womb and literally twists and rips the unborn baby’s arms and legs off, then crushes its skull.
The Jewish historian Josephus writing in the first century records that at Passover up to 265,000 lambs would be sacrificed in the Jewish temple at Jerusalem.
The Passover lamb was called “The Lamb of God.”
Those lambs had to meet the strict legal-religious regulations of the Jewish faith. They had to be no more than one year old, male and without spot or blemish. Therefore they had to be born in controlled conditions and inspected for birth defects before being raised in protected conditions.
Where did they get that many lambs? The law also said that animals to be sacrificed had to be born within five miles of Jerusalem.
Bethlehem is just five miles from Jerusalem.
The hillsides around Bethlehem, therefore were a first century lamb factory farm. When the lambs were born they were wrapped up in strips of cloth to protect them and placed in a stone feeding trough in the birthing barn until the priest could come by and inspect them.
This is why the angel said to the shepherds “This shall be a sign for you. You will find the baby wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.” The “manger” was most likely a stone feeding trough, not a wooden crib as we usually see. That comes from the medieval version of the story.
Jesus was therefore born in the same place and at the same time with the same treatment as the lambs that would be sacrificed.
The shepherds knew they were not going to see just any baby. They were going to see the newborn Lamb of God.
That’s why they worshiped him. They knew he was the promised Messiah, the Suffering Servant, the Lamb of God.
