The Party’s Over
Comments Off on The Party’s Over
Now that the Mueller investigation is over, what can be expected next? The normal process does not allow for the release of investigative material unless there is an indictment. The privacy of innocent people who have never been charged with any crime must be protected.
The Democrats will mine whatever the DOJ releases for any crumb that they might use against the President. If the DOJ does not release all of the report, Rep. Adam Schiff and others will claim that high crimes and misdemeanors are being covered up even though he knows better. It will be all about trying to make some political hay out of the disaster that was the Mueller investigation.
Pelosi and Schumer will demand that all investigative materials be declassified and released. They will probably say that full transparency is needed to protect the integrity of the US intelligence community or some such crap like that. The complete investigative file would likely be millions of pages. There would also be wiretaps, emails, text messages, etc.
March Madness
Comments Off on March Madness
March Madness has descended on the country. The biggest basketball event in the country started on Thursday. There is another kind of March Madness going on in the country and it is not a good one. That madness is the embracing of communistic socialism by various Democratic politicians.
Among the mob of Dems embracing this madness are Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and Bernie Sanders. They are both keen supporters of communism. They hide behind labels like Democratic Socialist. But they are communists at heart. Bernie Sanders spent his honeymoon in Russia and has never held a private sector job.
Climate Strike
Comments Off on Climate Strike
The success of the left’s brainwashing machine was on display Friday. Tens of thousands of students around the world walked out of classes to protest climate change. They joined AOC in this country in predicting a future not worth living unless dramatic action is taken by governments world-wide to combat global warming. Of course, they call it climate change since the left cannot make up its mind whether man is cooling (1970’s) or warming (1990’s mantra) the globe.
Brussels, Belgium
Organized by leftist activists at numerous locations around the world, the demonstrations saw students walking out of classes, joined by adult climate activists. The students skipped school supposedly to educate adults on climate change issues. ...
Is AOC A Puppet?
Comments Off on Is AOC A Puppet?
Is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a puppet? Are her every move, her every utterance programmed by her handlers who appear to have recruited her from a bar in NY? There is no doubt that she is an intelligent person. She just does not know very much about the subjects she talks about. Her gaffes and mistakes about economics and socialism are already legendary. So where did she come from? And how did she get to the House?
The video below answers many of these questions. It also forecasts the probability of additional activity like this in coming election cycles. These people are very dangerous to the concept of individual liberty. Keep in mind that these techniques are being used all over the country to try to convert the country into a socialist hellhole like Venezuela. ...
Drive For $15 Recession
Comments Off on Drive For $15 Recession
The Drive for $15 is having consequences that were entirely predictable. During the last two years NYC raised the minimum wage for restaurant workers from $11 to $15. Data show that, as a result, New York City experienced its sharpest decline in restaurant jobs in nearly 20 years. Never before, outside of a recession, have job losses been like this.
Reparations For Pocahontas

Elizabeth Warren has been hunting around for something, anything to save her already floundering campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination. She needs something to distinguish herself from the other socialists/communists who have announced their candidacies.
As with all Democrats she supports the killing of babies. As with all Democrats she supports forcing pro-life doctors and nurses to participate in the killing of babies. As with all Democrats she wants to force you, the taxpayer, to pay for the killing of babies.
As with all Democrats she supports open borders that permit all manner of evil people to invade our country through our southern border with Mexico. This leads to all kinds of crime that would not exist if the flow of Illegal aliens was halted or vastly reduced. This includes sex trafficking, drug smuggling and the expansion of MS-13 gangs.
Normalizing Political Violence
Comments Off on Normalizing Political Violence
In another example of the left trying to normalize political violence, Joseph “Jose” Alcoff (aka “Chepe,” aka “Jose Martin”) has been charged with aggravated assault and ethnic intimidation against two US Marines.
U.S. Marine Corps reservists Alejandro Godinez and Luis Torres, dressed in their military uniforms, testified that a large group of left-wing Antifa activists beat the Marines after mistaking them for participants in a November “We the People” rally in Philadelphia.
The two Marines were in the city for a Marine Corps event. According to the Marines’ testimony, they were touring historical landmarks near Front and Chestnut streets when approached by the Antifa thugs. Godinez testified that they were asked “Are you proud?” to which Godinez remembers responding “We are Marines.” Torres said that he remembers a second question “Are you Proud Boys?” an allusion to one of the alt-right groups behind the rally. Torres said he didn’t understand. “I didn’t know what Proud Boys meant,” he said.
Democrats Lawmakers Party While Federal Workers Go Without
The Federal government shutdown continues. While federal workers go without pay, what are Democratic lawmakers doing? Turns out they are partying in Puerto Rico with K Street lobbyists. As Paul Bedard noted:
Is Macron On The Ropes?
Comments Off on Is Macron On The Ropes?
Will French President Macron survive? France is not Venezuela yet. But, civil unrest continues to be a problem in parts of the country. And the French have a history of overthrowing their rulers and re-writing their constitutions. Since 1789 they have removed three kings, two emperors, and several presidents. During that period of time the country has had 15 constitutions.
