Break up the Yankees!

Break up the Yankees!

It was a refrain that was heard from time to time in the middle of the last century.  The New York Yankees were the best team in Major League Baseball (MLB) for a long time. From the time of Babe Ruth, through Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle and Maris they piled up American League pennants and World Championships in the House That Ruth Built, Yankee Stadium.

Not. One. Single. Whisper. Of. Scandal.

      Comments Off on Not. One. Single. Whisper. Of. Scandal.

Apparently Joe Biden’s campaign is going to be built on a foundation of lies. His video launching his campaign falsely accused PDJT of equating haters with people who stood up to hate during the Charlottesville tragedy.   This drew rebuke from both sides of the aisle and even on some Democratic MSM outlets.

On Friday Biden decided to double down on this tactic when he went on “The View” and stated that the one thing he was proudest of during his time in the Obama administration was that there was “not one single whisper of scandal.” He was enthusiastically supported in this statement by the co-host Joy Behar.

Are You Kidding Me?

Former Vice President Joe Biden made it official on Thursday.  Once again he has thrown his hat into the ring for President of the United States.  This will be the third time that he has tried.  The long-anticipated announcement came at a train station in Wilmington, Delaware.  This came after he was rebuffed by Charlottesville VA for his launch point.

George Orwell Walks Among Us

      1 Comment on George Orwell Walks Among Us

Orwellian thinking walks among us.  The author of 1984 might be surprised at how accurate his thoughts on governments attempting to control the public’s thinking have turned out.  None of this is possible without the complicity of the MSM.  The idea that night is day and day is night may be the next job that the MSM is tasked with doing.

The Mueller investigation is a clear example of this Orwellian thinking.  For two long years we were bombarded with supposed bombshell stories about conspiracies between members of the Trump campaign and Russian operatives.  We heard time and again that indictments were imminent against members of the campaign and of the Trump family.  Most of the MSM devoted nearly 90% of their reporting to propagating this false story during this time.  Members of the Democratic Party teased stories about their “inside” knowledge of the investigation.

Hell Freezes Over

      Comments Off on Hell Freezes Over

Has hell frozen over?  On the day before federal tax returns were due to be filed last week, the NYTimes ran a piece that admitted, rather belatedly, that PDJT’s tax reform package of 2017 resulted in lower taxes for the vast majority of Americans.

The reductions were broad-based and hit all levels of the middle class just as PDJT and the Republicans said it would.  This is logical since the tax rate for middle-income earners was cut and the standard deduction was increased. Fewer than one in ten households across the entire spectrum of tax filers, rich and poor, actually saw an increase in federal taxes.  And less than 2% of lower income filers were in this category.

Christianity Under Siege

      1 Comment on Christianity Under Siege

The Democrats’ anti-Christian bias was on display again.

Without a doubt Christianity is the most persecuted religion worldwide including in this country.  Christians expressing their beliefs are attacked in this country as being “bitter clingers,” racists, homophobes and worse simply for expressing their beliefs.

On Sunday a series of horrific attacks killed almost 300 people in Sri Lanka and injured hundreds more.  It was the biggest mass terrorist attack in a long time.  A radical Islamic religious group has been identified as perpetrating the coordinated attacks.  The vast majority of the victims were Christians attending church services on Easter Sunday morning.  They were targeted because they are Christians.

Collusion, Collusion, Collusion

      Comments Off on Collusion, Collusion, Collusion

Collusion, collusion, collusion…That’s all that  the Democrats and a compliant MSM said for two years.  Despite no evidence being produced, the public was deluged with claims of illegality and criminality on the part of the Trump campaign.  It was all because the Democrats could not accept the fact that HRC lost the election they had tried to rig for her.  Their hatred for PDJT did not allow them to look at events rationally.

What is collusion?  Webster’s defines collusion as a secret agreement or cooperation especially for an illegal or deceitful purpose.  As Mueller took pains to point out, collusion per se is not a crime under our federal laws. However, conspiracy is.  And conspiracy has a definition that for all intents and purposes is the same as collusion.  Under Webster conspiracy is joining in a secret agreement to do an unlawful or wrongful act or an act which becomes unlawful as a result of the secret agreement.

The Mueller Report notes that collusion generally equates to conspiracy. This is defined on page 180 of Volume 1. ”…collusion is largely synonymous with conspiracy as that crime is set forth in the general federal conspiracy statute, 18 U.S.C. § 371. “
