This sucks. But.....

As Kurt Schlicter has said, "The Left will not enjoy living by the rules they have established."

Last week, Kato Mele’s 23-year-old daughter said some things on Facebook that many people found appalling. She wrote that the White Rose Coffeehouse in Lynn, which her mother owns and where she worked, would never host a “coffee with a cop” event, klatches designed to build goodwill between police and the community.

It goes on from there.  And it's not nice.  In fact, it's rather horrible.  But it was just as horrible when a Christian baker was hounded out of business and fined hundreds of thousands of dollars.  It was just as horrible when a non-political pizza shop was hounded by Leftist zealots.  It was just as horrible when a Christian florist was hounded out of business BY THE STATE SHE LIVED IN for expressing non-approved Leftist views. 

People are sick of it.  They're lashing out, and this is what happens.  And it can be blamed entirely on the Left.  These are their rules.  We're just playing by them.

Things what make me like Trump's tax plan

Rand Paul is on board.

I’m all in for tax cuts @realDonaldTrump. The biggest, boldest cuts possible - and soon!

— Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) October 20, 2017

There's quite a bit that Libertarians and I don't see eye to eye on, but Taxes is one issue where we're shoulder to shoulder.  If Rand Paul likes the plan, I'm inclined to give it the benefit of the doubt.

Light Blogging Alert

Here's my schedule for the next ten days:

0430 - out of bed.
0545 - leave house, head to course
0700 - start course
1930 - finish course, head home
2030 - arrive home, eat, fall into bed.

Repeat until 30 October.

I might post music or YouTube.  Not much else.

Reminds me of the petition to ban Dihydrogen Monoxide.

College students love Trump's tax plan when told that it's Bernie Sanders'.

President Donald Trump’s proposal for comprehensive tax reform was almost immediately dismissed as heartless and impractical by his political opponents. 

But what would some of those opponents think if they were told the same plan was being proposed by someone they adore—Senator Bernie Sanders?

I expect college kids to be somewhat ignorant - they're in college.  They haven't really learned anything yet.  But these kids are just reacting to the name of Trump or Sanders, and not bothering one bit to actually see what the plan is.

Our education system needs to be destroyed.

That's funny shit right there!

HAH!

Things the Democrat Media Complex don't want to tell you.

Like, California was keeping an illegal alien criminal arsonist away from ICE before the Sonoma fires went ka-floom.

“Once again, a non-cooperative jurisdiction has left their community vulnerable to dangerous individuals and preventable crimes. ICE lodged a detainer against Jesus Gonzalez with Sonoma County jail officials on October 16, following his arrest on felony charges for maliciously setting fire to a property. This is especially troubling in light of the massive wildfires already devastating the region. Over the past year, ICE has lodged detainers against Mr. Gonzalez after four separate arrests by Sonoma County on various felony and misdemeanor charges. ICE was never notified of Mr. Gonzalez’ various releases. Additionally, Mr. Gonzales has been returned to his home country of Mexico on two separate occasions. The residents of Sonoma County, and the state of California, deserve better than policies that expose them to avoidable dangers. Non-cooperation policies – now enshrined in California state law – ensure only one thing: criminals who would otherwise be deported will be released and left free to reoffend as they please.”

I have one little quibble - the state of Kalifornia and the residents of Sonoma County do NOT in any way deserve better.  The state of Kalifornia, and especially the uber-liberal residents of Sonoma County have voted for exactly the things that have happened.  They deserve to have everyone else walk away and leave them to fester in their burned-down sanctuary city.

But Americans, being decent and good people, won't do that.  Mores the pity.

Democrats attempt to shit on Donald Trump, shit all over a Gold Star Family

And Gen. Kelly responds.



I was going to post a whole screed, but I don't think I need to do so.

Well, that explains it

I've often wondered why Cara Delevingne was a lesbian.  I mean, hot girl, famous, could have any guy she wants, and goes muff diving.  Turns out that 'ol Harvey Weinstein was attempting to be the fatty meat in a Delevingne sammich.  If that doesn't turn you off from guys forever, I just don't know what would.

As usual, the GOP lied

And now they're trying to find any way they can to save Obamacare.

Alexander said he’ll present details of the package to Republicans this week. Along with the insurance subsidies, the package would give states new flexibility on how their Affordable Care Act markets are run. It will also encourage states to meld their markets together, and let more people buy low-cost, limited-coverage plans.

"But Dave, that's just Lamar Alexander, not the whole GOP!"  Nope, they've lost the benefit of the doubt.  Until the GOP actual does what they promised to do for almost a decade now, every time I see something like this floated like a turd in a pool, I am assuming that it's got the backing of the GOP establishment. 

The GOP, especially the Senate, have proven time and time again that they care more about keeping Obamacare than they do about listening to the people who got them elected into office.  That's why Steve Bannon is out on a rampage right now working to get primary challengers to these noodle-spined statists that infest the GOP.

Bergdahl pleads guilty

Gosh, I'm so glad we traded five top Taliban leaders for this fuckwit.

Bergdahl, 31, is accused of endangering his comrades by abandoning his post without authorization. He told a general after his release from five years in enemy hands that he did it with the intention of reaching other commanders and drawing attention to what he saw as problems with his unit. 

It wasn't immediately clear whether his defense has conceded that he's responsible for a long chain of events that his desertion prompted, which included many decisions by others on how to conduct the searches. Despite his plea, the prosecution and defense have not agreed to a stipulation of facts, said one of his lawyers, Maj. Oren Gleich.

Bergdahl walked away from his post. He set down his rifle and walked the fuck away, straight into the Taliban's arms.  Good men died trying to rescue him.  Good men who should not have had their lives wasted trying to rescue a fucking moron who walked the fuck away from his post.

Bergdahl was not worth those men's lives.  He wasn't worth the five Taliban leaders that Obama willingly set free, who are now back fighting against our troops in the Middle East. 

At this point, I don't even want this fucking dolt in Ft. Leavenworth, because I don't want the military to spend any more time on his worthless ass.  Dishonorable Discharge, forfeiture of all pay and benefits, reduction in rank to Private, and kick his ass to the curb.  Let him go back to smoking dope and being a drain on someone else. 

Things what help keep me awake

Especially when I'm being run ragged.

It's coffee pouches that you use like snuff or dip.  They were invented to help people quit using chewing tobacco, but I've found they're great at helping me stay awake.  Nothing but coffee and flavor, so you're not spitting everywhere.  And each pouch is about the equivalent of a quarter-cup of coffee.  I'm about to take a ten-day class that'll be running my ass into the ground.  I'm getting a six pack of these bad boys. 

Am I glad I voted for him?

How's Trump doing these days, eh?

Now, almost nine months into his first term, how is he doing? Real unemployment is on the wane. The stock market is at an historic high. So is consumer confidence. Illegal immigration is down nearly 70 percent. America is now a net exporter of energy. Just a few days ago, Trump declined to re-certify the malevolent nuclear deal that Obama made with Iran, winning from Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu this commendation: “I congratulate President Trump for his courageous decision today. He boldly confronted Iran’s terrorist regime. . . . If the Iran deal is left unchanged, one thing is absolutely certain—in a few years’ time, the world’s foremost terrorist regime will have an arsenal of nuclear weapons and that’s a tremendous danger for our collective future.” 

Just a couple of days ago, Trump, having been disappointed by a supine Republican Congress, issued an executive order that will make it easier for people to band together to obtain health insurance tailored to their needs (instead of being forced into federally defined, one-size-fits-all plans) while also ending the unconstitutional federal subsidies (unconstitutional because the money wasn’t appropriated by Congress) to big insurance companies, amounting to some $7 billion per year (the price of getting those companies on board with Obamacare in the first place).

Can you imagine how much we could have accomplished of the GOP Establishment wasn't a bunch of big-government socialist fucktards trying to stymie Trump at every turn?  Ho.  Lee.  Crap.
