The Democrats have cancelled the State of the Union address scheduled for January 29th. Technically they dis-invited PDJT.
On Tuesday evening PDJT went before the American public to make his case for the building of a border wall. Of course, getting airtime was not a guarantee. Most of the networks would rather do something else than provide PDJT with time to make his case. However, the MSM could not afford to have all the analysis coming from Fox News. So the networks caved and broadcasted his address.
The border wall has been in the news a lot lately since the Democrats refuse to allocate a single penny to protecting our southern border. As a result, there has been a partial shutdown of the Federal Government, not that anybody has noticed except those who are now without paychecks.
There has been a lot of smoke generated about this issue. The Dems will parade some illegal alien who just finished college as proof we should have open borders. Of course this is a far cry from just a decade ago when the Dems were all in for protecting the border. ...
As has been pointed out before, the left wants the American people to accept political violence as normal. Hatred and calls for violence from left wing activists are now so routine that few prominent people bother to condemn them.
Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi have constantly been urging their supporters to confront those who do not agree with their Marxist philosophy, to get in their faces in public, to harass them in restaurants, at department stores, at gas stations. Waters even extended this to harassing people in their homes. The goal is to silence those who disagree with them.
Are the Democrats trying to impose a religious test on candidates for federal judgeships? In particular, are the Democrats trying to prevent practicing Catholics from ascending to federal judgeships? Of course, this would be contrary to the Constitution which specifically states that there can be no religious test for federal employment.
During 2017 confirmation hearings for the 7th Circuit for Judge Amy Barrett, Sen. Dianne Feinstein said, “The dogma lives loudly within you.” Specifically Feinstein was referring to the fact that Barrett was a practicing Catholic who follows the Church’s teachings on life and marriage. Feinstein was attempting to draw a line whereby particular individuals would be automatically disqualified from being judges if they believed in their religion’s teachings. In particular here, abortion on demand was the issue. ...
While there have been members of Congress who were not blessed with great intelligence, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez from NYC, who will take office in January, takes the cake.
She has a bachelor’s degree in economics from Boston University. After four years, (and nearly $300,000 list price), the school promises that BU economics majors will depart “with a firm understanding of core microeconomic and macroeconomic theory” and the “empirical skills that are essential to applying economic reasoning in our increasingly data-driven world.”
Given the above how does one explain the absolute economic illiteracy of this media darling who would make Sarah Palin look like a genius? The Economics Department of BU must cringe every time she shows up on TV. She is certainly not a glowing ad for the merits of their degree program.
Take a listen.
