Trump is fundraising tonight, just got another robocall asking me to pay for a brick for Nancy Pelosi
They really do think we're stupid.
The McCabe story has sucked all the oxygen out of the Trump immigration betrayal story today on conservative talk radio
I don't believe in conspiracies, but . . ..
They'd rather talk about anything but the self-immolation of their president.

Like Dan Bongino on Levin last night, Limbaugh is conceding on the border deal, fearing a shutdown
Spineless cowards, as always.
Drudge joins Trump in gaslighting on The Wall, shows picture of a wall but not the levee fence mentioned in the story
From the news release by US Customs and Border Protection last November:
This project includes the construction and installation of tactical infrastructure including a reinforced concrete levee wall to the height of the existing levee, 18-foot tall steel bollards installed on top of the concrete wall, and vegetation removal along a 150-foot enforcement zone throughout the approximately eight miles of levee wall system. The levee wall system will include detection technology, lighting, video surveillance, and an all-weather patrol road parallel to the levee wall.

Trump is gaslighting his supporters about wall "being built" and Limbaugh is his talk radio Gauleiter
Ann Coulter
BREAK GROUND, NOT PROMISES
January 23, 2019
Several months into the Trump administration, I started running a daily
"Border Wall Construction Update" on Twitter, announcing how many miles
of the wall had been completed that day and how many miles since the
inauguration. It was always the same numbers: 0 and 0, respectively.
I was immediately attacked by people in the Trump base. You're being unfair, he hasn't had enough time, there's a legislative process, he's doing the best he can.
As days turned to weeks and weeks turned to months and months turned to years, and not 1 inch of the wall was built, the "3-D chess" crowd dwindled.
Sometimes Trump would concede he hadn't built any part of the wall. Sometimes he would fib and claim it was being built. There's no way to sugarcoat it: That was a lie.
Drug dealers, drunk drivers, criminals, welfare dependents and low-wage workers driving down American wages continued to flow across our border.
We are now past the midway point of Trump's first term, maybe his only term. If Trump couldn't come up with a legislative fix when he controlled both houses of Congress, he's sure not going to now that he's lost the House.
We are headed for another failed Republican presidency.

The occasional fib that the wall was being built has now become the refrain, but it's still a lie.
And Rush Limbaugh is endlessly repeating it on his show today. What a joke, and it's on you.

Traitors to the middle class: Kamala Harris, Mike Lee, Zoe Lofgren, Ken Buck, and of course the Koch Bros.
A plan known as the Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act
introduced in the Senate by Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) and Sen. Kamala Harris
(D-CA), as well as Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) and Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO),
would eliminate the U.S. country caps in the legal immigration system
that would fast track outsourcing of white-collar American jobs to
mostly Indian and Chinese nationals imported to the country by
businesses, outsourcing firms, and multinational corporations.

Ridiculous budget deal chops Trump's previous wimpy immigration enforcement request by 75%
This is what you get when no one is serious about the immigration problem, including Donald Judas Trump.
The tentative deal includes $1.375 billion for physical barriers — a type of fencing that resembles the “steel slats” that Trump has specifically called for, according to a congressional aide briefed on the talks. It includes a total of 55 miles, which is just 9 miles shy of Trump’s last budget request. ...
The final deal is only slightly higher than Democrats' offer of $1.3 billion for border fencing and falls far short of Trump's demand for $5.7 billion in border wall funding that led to the government shutdown in December. And if Trump doesn't agree to sign the bill, negotiators could be back at square one, staring down another potential shutdown later this week.

LOL, George Soros says European Union may go away just like Soviet Union did, blames existence of political parties and freedom!
The disappearance of the Soviet Union was a good thing, but obviously not to George Soros.
The existence of political parties is a manifestation of freedom, but Georgie Boy obviously would prefer a one-party state, complete with police-state powers to impose its will.
This guy really is as awful as people say. The socialist mushrooms popping up in the Democrat-controlled US House must mean to him it's now an opportune time to say these things openly.
In his own words:
"Europe is sleepwalking into oblivion, and the people of Europe need to wake up before it is too late. If they don’t, the European Union will go the way of the Soviet Union in 1991. ... anti-European forces will enjoy a competitive advantage in the balloting. There are several reasons for this, including the outdated party system that prevails in most European countries, the practical impossibility of treaty change, and the lack of legal tools for disciplining member states that violate the principles on which the European Union was founded."
Lol, Limbaugh keeps trying to point everyone away from the Dec 20th transcript
He just claimed the instant message story was Dec 19th when it was Dec 20th.
Check your own archives, Rush!
Rush Limbaugh 12/20/2018: "Trump had better not sign that", 10 minutes later gets instant message
Lol, Rush is pretending again today that it's just a coincidence he got the instant message right after warning Trump on 12/20:
The President Tells Me It’s Money or Nothing
... If it’s that, then Trump had better not sign that. There has to be
some serious appropriation. So, I mean, it’s time for applause.
(clapping) Yes. This is a great, great first step. But it’s not a
full-fledged veto. Not that we want a veto; don’t misunderstand. This is
simply the president telling the Republicans, “I’m not signing this.
There’s no border security in it.” So now the Republicans are gonna go
back and put some border security in their version of the continuing
resolution. We’ll know what that is soon enough.
Then when they finish doing that and they vote on it — and it will
pass — they’ll send it over to The Turtle, Mitch McConnell in the
Senate, and then they will deal with it. The Senate was very happy to
have not a penny in this CR for border security. So it looks like the
onus now is… It looks like it’s on the House, but it’s actually gonna be
on the Senate, because we have to assume the House is gonna put
something in this. Meadows was dead serious about this. Ryan? I don’t
know. But it’s still his House. He’s still speaker for a while. So
that’s where we are. But it’s great news that the president refused to
sign this.
Now we have to keep our eyes on what they come up with as border security.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Okay, folks, this is good. This is interesting. I just got a
phone call. Well, I got an instant message. It’s the equivalent of you
getting a phone call. That’s how people communicate with me,
particularly during the program. It’s impossible to use the phone during
the program. Anyway, I just said less than 10 minutes ago in my
translation of what’s happened here, “The president told Republicans
he’s not going to sign this. It’s not a veto yet, but he’s not gonna
sign it until there’s border security in it.” ...
So I get this direct message: “You tell Rush that if there’s no money
in this, it’s getting vetoed. If there’s no money — if there’s no money
for a wall — I’m vetoing this, plain and simple.” This was the message
that I just got, and I trust it and I believe it to be the case. By the
way, it’s a legitimate question. I mean, the way the media reports this —
and it was not just the media. It was Paul Ryan saying, “The president
cares deeply about border security. So we’re gonna go back and we’re
gonna get some border security in this thing.
Richard Spencer's cuckery is on display when he attacks Boomer morality when what he really means is Christian morality
Spencer is servile to the hegemony of the status quo just as much as anybody, where publicly attacking religion is still verboten, so he veils it by attaching it to an easier target, a demographic cohort, the new elderly. It's not a coincidence that the godless right and left view the most vulnerable in society as the prime enemies of the good life.
Pace Spencer, the chief impediment to the success of race identity in America isn't ideology. It's capital, stored by the 78 million who own and occupy their homes (73% of whites, 58% of Asians, 47% of Hispanics, 42% of blacks). They don't want violence in the streets in front of their homes no matter what color it takes, whether it comes from Black Lives Matter, Antifa, MS-13, the KKK or Unite the Right. They want law and order. Republicans win when they run on that.

By the way, electricity from renewables is up 268% in 2017 from 2007, but . . .
renewables still provide less than 10% of total generation.
Unfortunately, America produced less total electricity in 2017 than it did in 2007, too, by 3.1%.
And the price of a kilowatthour is up 14.8%.
Reducing energy production and making it more expensive is no way to grow an economy, son.

Joe Biden 1975: Thanks to me anti-busing is no longer a racist position
“The pro-busers and the civil rights lobby were dumbstruck … although
I had put them on notice months earlier,” said Biden in the interview.
“I think I’ve made it possible for liberals to come out of the closet …
If [anti-busing] isn’t yet a respectable liberal position, it is no
longer a racist one.”
Read my lips: No second term
Trump Reverses Wage-Boosting Campaign Commitment, Demands More Legal Immigration: ‘We Need People’
The statements are a break from the president’s commitment in 2015, 2016, 2017, when he continuously advocated for reducing overall legal immigration to raise the wages of American workers.

Another one-two punch for us here in western lower Michigan from Mother Nature, where it's now 45F and the ice storm has melted away. Going down to 17F by midnight, though. Been there. Doin' it again.

More "peak capitalism" from the Democrat Party's Marxists
The Marxists have been waiting for peak capitalism since Marx himself, just as the Christians have been waiting for the end of the world since Christ himself.
So they're good, then.
Virginia turns into political Chernobyl, now attorney general admits, sort of, to blackface
The governor's med-school yearbook shows somebody in blackface on his page, for which Democrats everywhere have said he must resign.
Next in line is the Lt. Gov., a black man accused of sexual assault by a woman about whom the Lt. Gov. is reported to have recently said, "F*ck that bitch".
Next in line is the Attorney General, who has come out admitting to appearing in "brown make-up" when he was 19, reporting which the NYT is taking flak for underreporting the facts of blackface, nevermind the Attorney General is.
Not sure who is next in line, but from the look of things, this might take a while.
And to think a chink started it all.
Kellyanne Conway baldly lies on The Rush Limbaugh Show, claims over 7 million jobs created
You don't lose control of the US House after creating over 7 million jobs in just over two years.
These people are blind, but the voters are not.
There is NO measure which comes even close to over 7 million new jobs.
Total nonfarm payrolls (Establishment Survey) between Nov 2016 and Jan 2019 are up 5.3 million, seasonally adjusted, 1.7 million not seasonally adjusted.
Civilian employment (Household Survey) is up 4.5 million seasonally adjusted, 2.6 million not seasonally adjusted.
The sum of usually full time and usually part time (Household Survey) is up net 4.5 million seasonally adjusted, 2.6 million not seasonally adjusted (mirrors civilian employment level).
The employment-population ratio is up from 59.8% to 60.7%, an increase of 4.6 million jobs from 152.2 million to 156.8 million.
And 78% of these new jobs have gone to minorities, not to the white majority.
CONWAY: . . . He’s going to talk about the booming economy, and it is the Trump economy. Over seven million jobs created, wages are up, unemployment is down, small business formation is going well. People are just… They’re back to work. We’re a country that works.

Did Texas give preferential treatment to American Indian takers of the bar exam in 1986?
Looks like Elizabeth 1/1024 Warren, born white in 1949, thought of herself quite seriously as American Indian at the age of 37 or so.
