The sad thing is he believes his own lies.

Obama Says Politicians Lying Is Something ‘We Have Not Seen Before.’ Here Are Three Of His Biggest Whoppers

Former President Barack Obama lamented the state of political rhetoric in the U.S. at a rally in Wisconsin on Friday, saying politicians are “just blatantly, repeatedly, baldly, shamelessly lying.”

  1. In 2011, Obama claimed he “signed into law the biggest middle-class tax cut in history,” referring to the Making Work Pay provision in his stimulus package. Former-presidents John F. Kennedy and George W. Bush signed larger tax cuts into law.
  2. When campaigning for the Affordable Care Act, Obama claimed, “If you like your health-care plan, you can keep it.” After his bill passed, cancellation notices hit at least two million Americans’ mailboxes because of a short cutoff to bring existing plans in compliance with the new law.
  3. Obama referred vaguely to an “act of terror” immediately after the Benghazi attack, but “over a period of two weeks, given three opportunities in interviews to affirmatively agree that the Benghazi attack was a terrorist attack, the president obfuscated or ducked the question” all while sending his lackeys out to proclaim it was a spontaneous protest inspired by a YouTube video.

Caravan Riders Refuse Mexico’s Generous Offer – And They’re STILL Heading to the U.S

Under the Mexican plan, dubbed Estas en Tu Casa plan (translated to “This is Your Home”), asylum seekers would be given identifying documentation, jobs for adults and school for kids. The only catch was that they would have to stay in Mexico’s two southernmost states of Chiapas and Oaxaca.

Why settle for beans when you can get caviar in USA? Free housing, food, medical, cash money and jobs with no taxes they can send money to their families until they can get them here under “chain migration.”

The caravan riders to decided to turn down Mexico’s offer, saying they’ve trekked too far to stop before reaching the United States.

“Thank you! No, we’re heading north!” they shouted as they trekked on.

NBC: The “B” is for Bulls**t

NBC News Deliberately Sat on Information That Would Have Helped Clear Kavanaugh of Gang Rape Allegations

A few days later, on October 3rd, Avenatti revealed his second client accusing Kavanaugh of sexual abuse. The accuser, whose name was redacted, appeared to back up Swetnick’s claims that Kavanaugh was a rapist. This woman said in a sworn statement she also witnessed Brett Kavanaugh and his friend Mark Judge “spike punch” and abuse girls at house parties from 1980-1982.

Since NBC News had already interviewed the second accuser, they knew the sworn statement Avenatti released to the public was full of lies.

NBC News didn’t say a word–they sat back as Kavanaugh was defamed and dragged through the mud.

Democrat Fraud Machine Warming Up

Paper ballots and voter ID would mean the end of the democrat party. If they can’t cheat, they can’t win.

Texas Voters Casting Early Ballots Claim Voting Machines Switching Their Ballot Choices

Voters casting their ballots early in Texas claimed this week that when casting Democratic or Republican straight-ticket ballots, voting machines in at least 80 counties in the Lone Star State flipped their votes to the other party in key midterm races, including the high-profile competition between incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz and his Democratic opponent Beto O’Rourke.

CtH: And what a shocker (not) that it’s flipping parties … seeing as Republicans are way ahead down there.

TRUMP IS HITLER: Chris Cillizza at CNN wrote, “The roots of Adolf Hitler’s rise were built around his emphasis on extreme nationalism — the idea that the only way Germany could be great again was to seize onto the superiority of the German people and drive out those across Europe who refused to acknowledge that superiority.”

Never mind that President Trump has no brownshirts, but Democrats do. Never mind that President Trump has not spied on reporters, which Obama did. Never mind that President Trump has not politicized government law enforcement, something else Obama did.

BIDEN: Back in 2016, while he was still the VPOTUS, Joe Biden said of Donald Trump, “If we were in high school, I’d take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.”

BABYLON BEE: After a string of mail bombings targeting Democrats ended in the arrest of a Florida man, Democrat leaders announced the commencement of a brief moratorium on calling for political violence against their foes … “at least until this whole mail bomb thing is out of the news cycle.” But, “once all this blows over, we will resume demonizing our opponents and calling for mobs to harass people we disagree with in public.”

MEDIA SLUTS: Remember that time the American media was consumed with news that envelopes containing ground castor beans (the substance from which the deadly poison ricin is derived) had been sent to President Trump, FBI Director Christopher Wray, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and the Navy’s top officer, Adm. John Richardson? Me neither. But sheesh … who can remember all the way back to October 2?

TIME’S UP, DEMOCRATS: When Democrats failed to block the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Democrat President LBJ is reputed to have said that his signing of it “would keep niggers voting Democrat for 50 years.” 1964 + 50 = 2014.

HILLARY: This is from the 2016 campaign season. If the candidate collapsing had been a Republican, this man would have been on every morning and evening news show and every t.v. and radio talk show. It’s especially interesting that he was on Hillary’s protection detail for eight years.

The Mutual Admiration Society for Journalists

Having lost their “honest-broker” status and formed into a group with identifiable biases – ones that were always there but which are now unchecked and on the surface – they have opened themselves up to credible attack, which they are getting from President Trump.

And they don’t like it at all. But Trump’s attacks wouldn’t resonate – and he’d cut it out – if so many people didn’t perceive it as the truth. And yet journalists will take no responsibility for any of this.

And so, having taken to the battlefield instead of just covering it, they end up reinforcing each other with love, as in this video nicely compiled by the Washington Free Beacon.

An Unwarranted Assumption

The Supreme Court gave President Trump the power to bar immigration from any country in the interest of national security.  He needs to back it up with a show of force and a willingness to follow through.

These invaders and the democrats who have been funding them all along don’t think he has the nerve to use force. One thing is certain: they are craving a showdown just before the midterms.

President Trump may use executive order to completely shut down border.

“The administration is considering a wide range of administrative, legal and legislative options to address the Democrat-created crisis of mass illegal immigration. No decisions have been made at this time. Nor will we forecast to smugglers or caravans what precise strategies will be employed,” a White House official told NBC News.
