I had to post this today because tomorrow is too late.
Look up on Sunday! A ‘full cold supermoon’ is set to grace the skies this weekend: Here’s how to see it
A supermoon appears when the moon and Earth are at their closest point
The moon appears to be 14 per cent larger and 30 per cent brighter in the sky
The best time to see will be at 08:45 GMT (03:45 EST) on December 4
At this point the moon will be 222,135 miles (357,492 kilometres) from Earth
Skygazers are set to be treated to a ‘full cold supermoon’ this weekend.

As the moon orbits the Earth every month, there is a point in every cycle where the moon is closest (perigee) and a point where it’s farthest away (apogee).
There is also a monthly lunar cycle where you can see varying amounts of the moon depending on it’s position relative to Earth and the sun.
For a supermoon to happen, these need to line up – something that will occur this Sunday.
If the skies are clear then there should be no difficulty spotting the supermoon

Woman Driving By Notices McDonald’s Strange Nativity Scene, Posts Pic That Goes Viral
With Christmas just around the corner, it’s easy to get wrapped up in the trees, twinkling lights and presents. So when one woman drove by a McDonald’s restaurant in Spring Hill, Tennessee, and saw something shocking in the window, she immediately snapped a picture.
The employees at this McDonald’s made a huge statement with their unique and very powerful window display.

These days, it’s common for people, especially young children, to not understand or acknowledge the true meaning of Christmas. With all the hoopla surrounding Santa, his eight reindeer and bag of toys, people forget about the birth of Jesus on a cold winter night.
Fortunately, Amy Basel recently visited a McDonald’s that not only recognized the meaning behind the joyous holiday, but is displaying it proudly for everyone in the city to see.

In a day and age where Santa is more popular than Jesus, it was refreshing to see some people still understood the true importance of the holiday.

Why Christians support Donald Trump, via @Liz_Wheeler [3:04]
It looks to me like this Archbishop of Canterbury represents the heretical, left-wing, so-called “Christians” of the world. In the U.S., we call them “Democrats.” These are the “Christians” who will enthusiastically welcome the Anti-Christ and help to elevate him to world domination.

Illegal Alien Who Shot Kate Steinle Found Not Guilty Of Murder
A jury has found Jose Ines Garcia Zarate not guilty in the murder of Kate Steinle, the woman whose shooting death on a San Francisco pier in 2015 provoked an immigration debate.
Zarate was found not guilty of first-degree murder, second-degree murder or manslaughter. However, he was found guilty of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
HE MAY BE SUBJECT TO DEPORTATION. HE ALREADY HAS BEEN DEPORTED 5 TIMES. IT WILL TAKE HIM ABOUT A WEEK TO GET BACK HERE, FELONY CONVICTIONS AND ALL.
Steinle was 32 years old. She was walking on the pier with her father, Jim, when she died. Her final words were “help me, Dad.”

Illegal Alien Jose Ines Garcia Zarate Found NOT GUILTY in Shooting Death of Kate Steinle
Garcia Zarate showed little emotion when the verdict was read but hugged his attorneys. Public Defender Jeff Adachi, whose office represented Garcia Zarate, said his client was “extremely relieved.”
“He knew what was at stake — his life was at stake,” Adachi said. “I think he feels tremendous sympathy for Kate Steinle and her family — we do as well — but unfortunately these types of horrible, tragic accidents happen every day.”
KIND OF MAKES YOU FEEL SORRY FOR HIM, DOESN’T IT?… LIKE HELL!!

BREAKING: Illegal Alien Jose Ines Garcia Zarate Found NOT GUILTY in Shooting Death of Kate Steinle
Defense Attorney For Illegal Alien In Steinle Case Says Trump, Pence, Sessions Under Investigation Themselves
He got the jury nullification he wanted.
A coalition of Bay Area immigrant advocacy organizations — among them the California Immigrant Policy Center, the Asian Law Caucus and La Raza Centro Legal — extended their condolences to the Steinle family. During these difficult moments, the coalition said in a statement, the American people and their elected representatives face a choice:
The group also said sanctuary policies “are vital to defending all people against troubling abuses of federal power, limiting racial profiling and addressing a growing crisis of confidence in law enforcement.”
The Rev. Jon Pedigo, director for advocacy and community engagement at Catholic Charities of Silicon Valley, said it was clear from the start that the shooting was unintentional.
Ann Coulter: Kate Steinle ‘Would Still Be Alive if We Had a Wall’
Following the shocking verdict, Ann Coulter took to Twitter to share her disgust with the decision, saying Steinle’s death would have never occurred if a border wall had been constructed decades ago in order to stop illegal immigration in the country.

THINK THE LEFT FEELS ANY SYMPATHY FOR THE VICTIMS OR THAT THE HATRED THEY FEEL FOR THE PRESIDENT EVER ABATES? THINK AGAIN:


OUR FRIEND GP NOTED ON FACEBOOK THIS WILL LEAD TO TRUMP BEING RE-ELECTED. I WOULD HOPE SO, BUT IT’S AN AWFUL PRICE TO PAY.

I started college with the intention of majoring in cinema. Two weeks in, after actually attending the first class of Cinema 101, which was taught by the department head, I dropped out. He showed us this inane, homemade film called “Window Water Baby Moving.” You don’t need to see it to imagine what it showed. A window. Some water. A baby. Something I forget what that was moving. Oh, and the filmmaker, whose work was SO IMPORTANT that it merited being the first thing we saw in Cinema 101, had also, wait for it, scratched some of the film with a pin.

Just a smorgasbord of things today.
My stepson is 36 and he and some of his friends were on Facebook yesterday talking about “the old days” and how good things were back then. Being the old grump I am, with all my filters long since gone, I had to inject myself. I simply commented that they weren’t old enough to have any ‘good old days’ yet.

Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey Storm Al Franken’s Office Demanding His Resignation
Juanita Broaddrick and Kathleen Willey stormed Senator Al Franken’s D.C. office Wednesday, demanding the embattled lawmaker resign over multiple sexual harassment allegations against him. Reporter Melanie Morgan, a Franken accuser, joined Broaddrick and Willey. Of course, Broaddrick and Willey are two of former President Bill Clinton’s most famous accusers.
After a few minutes of waiting for Franken, Morgan shouts, “Don’t be a coward, come out and talk to us!”
“Speak to us! We have something to say to you!” Morgan says.
Franken’s handlers then tell the women that he’s busy and will not have time to meet with them, prompting Morgan to recount allegations against the then-comedian. Franken allegedly stalked Morgan after they disagreed on the OMB’s budget numbers during a taping of ABC’s late night show Politically Incorrect in 2000.
Capitol Hill police then show up to Franken’s office, demanding the group of women leave.
“This is a place of business,” the officers say.

Destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism: Trump Hits Back At Theresa May
May condemned Trump earlier Wednesday for retweeting three videos from the right-wing group Britain First that purported to show Muslims attacking Europeans, breaking a statue of the Virgin Mary, and beating someone to death.
Trump retweeting these videos has lead to a firestorm of media criticism. MSNBC labelled Britain First a “white nationalist” group continuously throughout the day.
CNN’s Dana Bash also claimed that the “only people who are supporting what the president did are racists and fascists and bigots,” something that gave her a literal “stomach ache.”
THEY KEEP REFERRING TO BRITAIN FIRST AS A “FAR-RIGHT” GROUP AND CLAIM THESE VIDEOS ARE FAKE.
EUROPE STILL REFUSES TO ACCEPT THAT THEIR WELCOMING IN MILLIONS OF THESE MURDEROUS PIGS WILL END IN THEIR DESTRUCTION.

President Trump: ‘Investigate’ Joe Scarborough’s Dead Congressional Intern
THIS WAS A STUPID MOVE. ON A DAY IT WAS ANNOUNCED THE GDP HIT 3.3%, WHICH HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOUTING, HE’S GIVING CREDIBILITY TO SOMEONE MOST PEOPLE HAVE NEVER HEARD OF.
“So now that Matt Lauer is gone when will the Fake News practitioners at NBC be terminating the contract of Phil Griffin?” Trump tweeted, adding, “And will they terminate low ratings Joe Scarborough based on the “unsolved mystery” that took place in Florida years ago? Investigate!”

Tired of all the winning? 3Q GDP revised upward to higher than expected 3.3%
Yet there is a connection. The free market is happily responding to thousands and thousands of regulations being cut, an end to business being targeted as the enemy, and the prospect of fairer taxes. What it means is jobs, jobs, jobs, and lots of investment bringing more growth.
The Obama years were years of subpar growth, where GDP never broke the 3.0% growth line in any quarter. Averaged in with the Beltway bureaucrat bonanza, the weak, anemic Obama-era figures reflect how much was lost around the rest of the country – as money went to Washington, and voters grew poorer. This is the cash the Ohios, the West Virginias, the Pennsylvanias – and other neglected states – sent, virtually all of whose voters defiantly cast their ballots in 2016 for Trump.
It’s what normal people call change.

Case shows judges matter
“A U.S. District Court judge in Washington on Tuesday handed a big victory to President Donald Trump, ruling in favor of the administration in its bid to install White House budget director Mick Mulvaney as acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau,” Politico reported this evening.
When Trump took office, he issued two executive orders to halt travel with seven, and then six, countries. Obama appointees blocked the orders. The Supreme Court eventually stepped in and let the orders go through, unmolested.
That was judicial activism. Those Obama-nauts exceeded their authority.
I keep bringing up judicial appointments because unfortunately the courts have become the dominant branch of the federal government

Another top House Democrat took $50K from taxpayers to keep a former staffer quiet
Arizona Rep. Raul Grijalva’s secret deal with a former female staffer was revealed by The Washington Times on Monday. The payout was negotiated by the House Employment Counsel, the body’s attorney, and cost taxpayers $48,395.
The settlement, however, may have violated House rules, The Times reported. It’s against House rules for a lawmaker to retain “an employee who does not perform duties for the offices of the employing authority commensurate with the compensation such employee receives.”

How Hateful Are the Democrats? This Hateful
WHEN I WROTE A POST THE OTHER DAY COMPARING THE TWO WHITE HOUSES, I KNEW SHE WOULD BE SAVAGED BY THE SAME PRESS THAT CALLED THE WATER BUFFALO A “FASHION ICON.”
You can’t make this stuff up: Vogue, a reliable Democratic Party outlet, has gone crazy over First Lady Melania Trump’s White House Christmas decorations:
Melania Trump unveiled the White House holiday decorations on Monday, which are, as some people on the internet have noticed, very, very white.
White decorations at Christmas? The horror!
This is truly beyond the pale: In a year during which many have speculated that Melania hates her husband and does not want to be First Lady at all (a claim that has recently resurfaced), Melania’s White House Christmas could be interpreted as a snowy and desolate manifestation of her own isolation, which begs the question: Is she trying to tell us something?
You have to see it for yourself, or you would never believe how nutty–speaking of mental institutions–today’s Democrats have become.
Vogue goes on to assemble some of the “best reactions to Melania’s White House creations.” All of which are sick. Here is just one example:
Reports: The U.S. Embassy Move to Jerusalem is Happening
ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS I THOUGHT ABOUT THE NIGHT WE WERE DELIVERED FROM TYRANNY WAS HOW IT LIFTED THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL WHO SUFFERED UNDER THE DISDAIN FROM A PRESIDENT WHO HATED THEM JUST AS MUCH AS HE HATED WHITE AMERICANS
Israeli officials are reportedly expecting US President Donald Trump to make a landmark announcement in the coming days regarding the move of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and recognizing the highly-sensitive holy city as Israel’s capital, according to a local TV report on Wednesday.
The report comes just a day after Trump’s vice-president Mike Pence stated that the President was “actively considering” how and when to move the US embassy.

Team Hillary Clinton cheers Matt Lauer’s firing, says he was mean to her
Another person whose interview with Trump was ridiculously soft and interview with Hillary was incredibly tough: Matt Lauer,” tweeted former Clinton aide Neera Tanden, president of the Center for American Progress.

His tactics were called sexist.
CNN’s Jim Acosta ROASTED for Fake ‘Fact Check’ About ‘Pocahontas’ Being a Racial Slur
CNN’s Jim Acosta never learns. Instead of reporting the facts, something Acosta’s network is challenged at doing, the “reporter,” tries to play ‘Mr. Moral Authority,’ and fails every single time.
After Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders denied the term ‘Pocahontas,’ used by the President in reference to Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) at an event with Navajo Code Talkers, Acosta ‘fact checked,’ that the term is in fact racist. Acosta provided no proof of a fact check, of course.
“WH press sec says “Pocahontas” is not a racial slur. (Fact check: it is.),” tweeted Acosta.
After Acosta’s non-existent fact check, he was roasted on Twitter.
CNN’s Jim Acosta ROASTED for Fake ‘Fact Check’ About ‘Pocahontas’ Being a Racial Slur

Apparently “silly season” is not limited to electoral nonsense in D.C. The democrats and the media whores have made Republican presidents the object of non-stop abuse for decades. Then a creature not born of the swamp descended on Washington like a cyclone in a wheat field. Not content to silently take the abuse democrats dish out the way Bush did, Trump hits back. Sometimes swiftly, as in the CFPB attempted coup, other times like Chinese water torture.
Winning: Donald Trump Calls Democrats’ Budget Bluff on Amnesty
President Donald Trump stepped up his budget confrontation with Democratic leaders today and called their bluff on their mumbled threats to block the 2018 budget if it did not include the unpopular ‘Dreamer’ amnesty.
Instead, the Democrats retreated to Congress where they lobbed complaints at Trump. The retreat left amnesty advocates in the lurch, despite months — and years — of media-magnified claims that the American public wants a no-strings amnesty for the 3 million ‘dreamers,’ plus their millions of chain-migration relatives.
Trump dared “them to shut the government” and they folded, said Mark Krikorian.
WINNING! POTUS Trump Gives Presser Next to Empty Chairs for Pelosi-Schumer …. PELOSI FREAKS OUT
Senile Nancy Pelosi threw a tantrum because Trump gave a press conference next to two empty seats after the House Minority leader and her fossil counterpart in the Senate, Chuck Schumer decided to be a no-show Tuesday
“Meeting with ‘Chuck and Nancy’ today about keeping government open and working. Problem is they want illegal immigrants flooding into our Country unchecked, are weak on Crime and want to substantially RAISE Taxes. I don’t see a deal!” Trump tweeted.
In a stunning visual, President Trump gave a press conference next to two empty seats where Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer were supposed to be sitting.

REMEMBER THIS FROM THE RNC CONVENTION?
Trolling the two butthurt Dems with the empty seats in the Roosevelt Room reminded me of another notable empty chair scenario. Picture it. The year was 2012. The Oscar-winning actor/director/legend Clint Eastwood entered the Tampa Bay Times Forum, the site of the RNC Convention, in dramatic fashion with the backdrop screen showing a large silhouette of him from the film “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly”. The speakers in the arena were blaring the score from the film. The crowd ate it up.

CNN to boycott White House Christmas party
Under fire from Trump, the network says it would be ‘inappropriate to celebrate with him as his invited guests.’

“CNN will not be attending this year’s White House Christmas party,” a CNN spokesperson said. “In light of the President’s continued attacks on freedom of the press and CNN, we do not feel it is appropriate to celebrate with him as his invited guests. We will send a White House reporting team to the event and report on it if news warrants.”

“@FoxNews is MUCH more important in the United States than CNN, but outside of the U.S., CNN International is still a major source of (Fake) news, and they represent our Nation to the WORLD very poorly. The outside world does not see the truth from them!”, tweeted Trump on Saturday.

[CtH: It’s no surprise that Democrats seem to dominate in politics and academia, both places where they are largely protected from reality.]
Democrats have one talking point on taxes: ‘It’s a tax cut on the rich.’ And they say it over and over and over and over again in response to everything.
The most important thing for you to know when you’re at home is when they say rich, they mean taxpayer. Every time they say ‘rich’ they mean taxpayers. Why is it?
And the reason is there are not millionaires and billionaires to pay for all the socialism Bernie and the Democrats want.

Along with Charlie Rose at CBS, Lauer is the second morning anchor to lose his job over sexual misconduct allegations. Last month NBC fired political commentator Mark Halperin after numerous women claimed he had behaved inappropriately with them while he was working at ABC/Disney.

Almost Every Graduate Of DC High School Was Truant, Yet All Of Them Were Accepted To College
The majority of graduating students at a Washington, D.C. high school did not attend more than six weeks of high school, but still managed to get into college, an investigation into the students’ records found.
The District of Columbia Public Schools system policy states that students who misses a class more than 30 times should fail that class, according to WAMU.
Despite these absences, all of the 2017 seniors got into a college, a feat for which the school received high praise. One student said the class-wide acceptance was a repudiation of all those who said the school — where at one point only 3 percent of students met the reading standards — couldn’t do it.
Some teachers who spoke to the outlet said they felt they had to graduate failing students due to pressure from the high school administration. Other teachers said the lack of expectations allowed students to do what they wanted and not show up for class.

Bernie Sanders Was Just Nominated for a Grammy
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) may not have won the Democratic nomination for president, but he was just nominated for a Grammy Award. Sanders, along with actor Mark Ruffalo, received the nod for the audiobook recording of Sanders’ book “Our Revolution: A Future to Believe In” in the category of Best Spoken Word Album.
Barack Obama won the Grammy in 2006 for “Dreams From My Father” and in 2008 for “The Audacity of Hope.” Bill Clinton received the honor in 2005 for “My Life.”
