Thousands Of Ohio Teens Can’t Get Licenses Because Their Parents Are Illegal Aliens

The Ohio BMV has been sued for discriminating against children of undocumented immigrants by not allowing their parents to cosign on their driver’s license or state ID card applications — even if their children are U.S. citizens.

The denial or delay of a driver’s license or state ID hinders the ability of children of undocumented immigrants “to travel to their places of school and employment, transport other family members, provide identification for purposes of opening a bank account or obtaining employment, and otherwise participate fully in civic life,” according to the 27-page complaint filed Oct. 16.

What A Massive Waste Of Air

Obamas to Make Anti-Trump Netflix Show

Barack and Michelle Obama are working on an anti-Trump Netflix show. The new show will show Obama as a hero and the incoming Trump administration as bumbling rookies.

It will be a fantasy show.

Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama have acquired the rights to adapt Michael Lewis’ book The Fifth Risk as part of their overall deal with Netflix, Deadline reported Wednesday.  Lewis’ book describes the disorder within the Department of Agriculture, Department of Energy, and Department of Commerce that took place during the transition between the Obama administration to the Trump administration.

Netflix in May announced a multi-year deal in which the Obamas would produce shows for the streaming platform.

The problem with working nights is that you can’t sleep on your night off. So here I am, ready to waste bandwidth with stuff you either already knew or didn’t care to know.

Almost $600,000 Raised for Justice Kavanaugh Will Help Catholic Youth Programs

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh is declining to accept the more than half a million dollars raised in a Go Fund Me campaign during his bruising confirmation hearings, citing ethical concerns. But the North Carolina man who started the effort said the money would go to three Catholic youth programs that Kavanaugh has supported in the past.

Bits & Bytes

YAY ME! I just got my latest round of blood work and my eGFR (kidney function) is up to 47. Twenty-seven months ago, when I landed in the ICU with kidney failure, it was 14. My nephrologist told me that anything above 25 was sustainable, but below that, I was headed for dialysis, a transplant list, and death, so it was a Very Big Deal when I finally broke 25. But for a long time, it’s been stuck in the low 40s. I’m so excited to hit 47! And my creatinine (another kidney thing) has dropped from over 1.2 to 1.16. Neither test is in the normal range (yet!) but it’s super good news that my kidneys appear to be healing from whatever knocked them out in 2016. I had a bajillion tests done, but they never found a single thing wrong with my kidneys … except they weren’t working! When my nephrologist ran out of tests to do, he sighed and said, “I just keep getting back a whole lot of NORMAL.” Except for the eGFR and creatinine tests LOL. So anyway, PRAISE GOD!

2018_11 Use it

TRUMP TWEET: President Trump tweeted this video decrying illegal alien murderers that Democrat policies have allowed into our country. Some declared this was a “racist” ad. Many others said no, it’s just factual. My favorite was, “Illegal alien murderer isn’t a race.”

TUCKER CARLSON: “Let’s fix Honduras” bwahaha.

TUCKER CARLSON: The caravan is about 70% young, dangerous males.

RUSSIAGATE: HOW many months did Dems and their Yammering Media spout apocalyptic horror over Russia’s alleged control over Trump and our election process? But now that we’re in the countdown to an actual election with huge significance to Trump’s agenda … the whole issue is MIA.

2018_10 Pelosi

CIVILITY: On Tuesday during a campaign event, Bernie Sanders called President Trump “the most racist, sexist, homophobic, bigoted president in history.” I’m so glad to see that Democrats have taken last week’s mail bomb scare and lethal synagogue shooting to heart and toned down the sensationalist, violence-mongering rhetoric.

PASS THE POPCORN: Sen. Claire McCaskill called a Missouri state senator a “crazy Democrat” — so she called McCaskill a “piece of shit” and compared her to a slave owner. And we’re less than a week from election day.

2018_11 01 Cable

OCTOBER RATINGS: For basic cable, Fox News Channel averaged more (by a lot) total viewers than CNN and MSNBC combined. ::snort::

PANTS ON FIRE: Trump tweeted about Harry Reid’s sponsorship of a 1993 bill to end birthright citizenship. Reid responded by saying he “immediately” changed his mind on that one. But a YEAR later, he wrote an Op Ed for the LA Times saying, “Our doors should remain open, but only wide enough to admit those to whom we can realistically offer opportunity and security. To leave the door unguarded is to create an environment in which no one can live securely and peacefully. And so I am sponsoring a bill in the Senate to reduce immigration-legal and illegal.”

BEN & JERRY’S: They embraced the flaming anti-semite, Linda Sarsour, to launch their new anti-Trump ice cream flavor “Pecan Resist.”

TISSUE ALERT: Three paraplegics have walked for the first time in years after being fitted with a revolutionary new device that electrically stimulated their spinal cords. These signals are thought to have triggered the growth of new nerve connections in the spinal cord of the patients, because the patients were still able to walk after the electrodes were turned off!

LOL!! “How Trump plays the Media”

Anchor Baby Conundrum

The 14th Amendment originally applied to the children of freed slaves. Trump is probably within his power to sign an executive order banning the anchor baby nonsense. Makes no difference. Restraining orders have already been written by a number of leftist hacks wearing black robes.

Trump considering Executive Order ending Birthright Citizenship for children of non-citizens and illegal immigrants

CNN: “This is what the president wants to be talking about seven days before [the election], and we’re taking the bait.”

“We’re the only country in the world where a person comes in and has a baby, and the baby is essentially a citizen of the United States … with all of those benefits,” Trump continued. “It’s ridiculous. It’s ridiculous. And it has to end.”

CtH: I tried to research the “only country” thing. There used to be a minority of nations (about 30) that still allowed this, but as far as I could determine, many and maybe all of the others have eliminated it.

Con-Ye Sells Us Out

‘My Eyes Are Now Wide Open…I Am Distancing Myself From Politics’

Lefties are all aglow … their boy is back on the plantation.

“My eyes are now wide open and now realize I’ve been used to spread messages I don’t believe in. I am distancing myself from politics and completely focusing on being creative,” the 41-year-old rapper tweeted Tuesday to his millions of followers

Candace Owens’ statement on the affair

Right before the post, he told his followers that he had “nothing to do with the Blexit t-shirts, referencing a report that surfaced over the weekend about West reportedly being involved with the line of apparel. The term refers to encouraging African-American voters to “exit” the Democratic party, a shortened version of “black exit.”

Kanye is about to release three new styles of sneaker through Adidas. His current Yeezy’s aren’t selling. Now it’s Christmas, and he’s got to make his deal with Adidas work.

Second, on November 23rd comes an album postponed from a few weeks ago called “Yandhi.” The prior album, “Ye,” was a bust. “Yandhi” has to actually sell copies. Right now, he’s lost his base in the black audience and most of the white audience. “Ye” sold 60,000 actual copies, 250K all in with streaming. That doesn’t pay for first class trips around the world.

2018_10 28 WalkAwayMarch

#WALKAWAY: Thousands of formerly liberal Americans descended on the District of Columbia Saturday to take part in the #WalkAway Campaign’s first march on Washington to declare their independence from the Democrat Party. The #WalkAway Campaign argues that the modern Left, and the party with which it aligns, have abandoned principles such as tolerance, equality, and open discussion that attracted people there in the first place.

INVASION: “The so-called migrant caravan that’s slowly making its way to the U.S. from Central America is many things to many people. But one thing seems pretty certain: it’s not about seeking ‘asylum,’ or ‘refugee status.’ It’s about getting to the United States at all costs. It’s time we take our border seriously, or we’ll end up like those countries in Europe and the Mideast who find their nations no longer governable.” Investor’s Business Daily editorial “Migrant Caravan: A Foreign-Financed, Leftist-Led Violation Of U.S. Sovereignty”

NO’ MO’ ANCHOR BABIES: In 1993, Sen. Harry Reid (the leader of the Senate Democrats from 2005 to 2017 and as the Senate Majority Leader from 2007 to 2015) introduced the “Immigration Stabilization Act of 1993” which would have denied U.S. citizenship to babies born here to illegal aliens. He decried the practice, because it offered an “incentive for pregnant alien women to enter the United States illegally, often at risk to mother and child, for the purpose of acquiring citizenship for the child and accompanying federal financial benefits.” Today’s Democrats are OUTRAGED that President Trump is considering using an Executive Order to accomplish the same thing at least temporarily.

TRUMP ECONOMY: “In 2016, President Barack Obama said then-candidate Donald Trump would need a magic wand to deliver on his promise to bring back manufacturing. Turns out, Trump didn’t need a magic wand — all he needed was tax reform,” Abigail Marone writes in the Washington Examiner. “Since President Trump signed the tax cuts, manufacturing has been booming. At least 100 manufacturers have built new facilities, purchased new equipment, hired new employees, and invested in current employees through bonuses and benefit increases.”

Keep Pushing Forward, Senator

Actual headline from Legal Insurrection:

Senate Judiciary Committee holds nominee hearings during recess, and Dems are pissed

For all the Democrat complaining, no one is stopping them from attending and asking questions. [CtH: See my extra info below.]

So Senate recess was a time for Republicans to halt the judicial confirmation train from rollin’ down the tracks?

Not.

Before you can get to a floor vote, you need a Committee vote. And before you can get a Committee vote, you need a Committee hearing.

So, the Senate Judiciary Committee has continued to hold hearings on nominees, lining up more Committee votes for just after the midterms.

Nina Totenberg at NRP writes, Trump, Republicans Continue Remaking The Federal Courts — Even As Senate On Recess:

… And now, for the first time, the Senate Judiciary Committee is holding confirmation hearings during a Senate recess, over the objections of the minority party.

CtH: Since the recess is campaign season, I was curious who on the Senate Judiciary Committee might be impacted by these meetings. It turns out that only ONE of the members who is up for re-election is considered an “at risk” candidate. And he’s a Republican. All of the four Democrats running are in races that are “considered safe for the incumbent.” IOW, they could go to the meetings if they wanted to do so.

SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP

[BOLD = Incumbents running for re-election, RED = Considered unsafe for incumbent. GREEN: Considered safe for incumbent.]:

REPUBLICANS: Senator Chuck Grassley R-IA; Senator Orrin G. Hatch R-UT; Senator Lindsey Graham R-SC; Senator John Cornyn R-TX; Senator Michael S. Lee R-UT; Senator Ted Cruz R-TX; Senator Ben Sasse R-NE; Senator Jeff Flake R-AZ; Senator Mike Crapo R-ID; Senator Thom Tillis R-NC; Senator John Kennedy R-LA.

DEMOCRATS: Senator Dianne Feinstein D-CA; Senator Patrick Leahy D-VT; Senator Dick Durbin D-IL; Senator Sheldon Whitehouse D-RI; Senator Amy Klobuchar D-MN; Senator Christopher A. Coons D-DE; Senator Richard Blumenthal D-CT; Senator Mazie Hirono D-HI; Senator Cory Booker D-NJ; Senator Kamala Harris D-CA.

Rally ‘Round The Donald, Boys

Most remember, maybe not so fondly, Emperor Barack I rallying the sheeple with cries of racism, hatred and “getting in their faces.” Now, he can’t draw enough people to half a high school gymnasium.

Trump, on the other hand, has drawn massive turn-away crowds since he first began campaigning. The record of those he’s endorsed is pretty impressive.

Trump plans nearly a dozen more rallies before midterms

President Trump plans to hold 11 campaign rallies in seven states in the run-up to the midterm elections.

The president’s schedule includes stops in Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Montana, Ohio, Tennessee and West Virginia.

Trump will be in Florida Wednesday, backing Gov. Rick Scott for the US Senate seat occupied by Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.) He’s also endorsed Republican gubernatorial candidate Ron DeSantis over progressive Democratic hopeful Andrew Gillum.

On Thursday, Trump will be in Columbia, Missouri, to support Republican Josh Hawley, who is trying to unseat Sen. Claire McCaskill, the incumbent Democrat.
