[Does anyone know what leverage would Trump have to get Dems to agree to border security funding were he to agree on first giving them all they want on illegal aliens in a bill that would also terminate the shutdown?  gjr]

    Daily Quoes:
    “I think the press jumps the gun a lot because we have so much circumstantial evidence against [Trump] that we’re basically hoping that [Michael] Cohen has the goods, and what have you. It’s wishful thinking.” —Joy Behar on the Covington Catholic High School debacle
    Braying Jenny: “When I see the ‘Make America Great Again’ hat now … I am triggered. I’m so triggered. … This Make America Great Again hat is just as maddening and frustrating and triggering for me to look at as a KKK hood.” —CNN commentator Angela Rye
    Echos of crap for brains Ben Emery: “No one makes a billion dollars. You TAKE a billion dollars. You take it from your workers… You plunder it from the environment… You strip it using patents/protections.” —Stony Brook University economics professor Stephanie Kelton
    Hot air: “I wish there was a lawsuit capacity that could hold people liable for such a[n] insane decision as he has made, which is gonna cost lives. People will die because of the president’s [Paris climate accord] decision.” —John Kerry
    D’oh! “Let’s talk about the balance of power. There are two coequal branches of government, the president of the United States and the Congress.” —Elizabeth Warren, who omitted the judicial branch
    Hypocrite: “The death penalty is morally indefensible and has no place in the 21st century. Today, in solidarity with [Pope Francis] and in honor of my father, I will be advancing legislation to remove the death penalty from State law once and for all.” —Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Aug. 2, 2018 (“But gleeful abortion until birth is fine, because morals or something.” —Katie Pavlich)
    And last… “This is your daily reminder that Planned Parenthood was caught on tape multiple times harvesting and selling baby body parts for cash and they still receive $500 million a year in taxpayer funding.” —Charlie Kirk

    Another crackhead bites the dust. Maybe they will build a monument to her like they built for crackhead Marion Berry.
    Wednesday brought another scalp of the #MeToo movement, and this time it was a black woman. Democrat Texas Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee resigned as chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and “temporarily” gave up her gavel as chair of the House Judiciary Committee’s subcommittee on crime, though she’ll retain her House seat — for now. Why? There are, according to The Daily Wire, “claims that she retaliated against a former staffer who accused a Congressional Black Caucus aide of sexual assault.”

    George Boardman is trying to have his few readers believe he is an open-minded man without a racist bone in his body. So he trashes Steven King of Iowa and RR readers. Totally cracks me up. And he prints some stuff from here to back up his claim. Reading it is a hoot! I have no racist bones in me but a liberal can find one in Jesus Christ if he wants to. My position on speech is to keep the dialog open no matter how lousy someone is. And lousy is what the Boardman’s of the planet are. They are the racists as they see everything as color. But he is correct in one assertion. Republicans are so afraid to stick up for anyone accused by the left that they have been neutered in most cases.

    Can you believe those Devos people? They are demanding more airstrips be built for their private jets so they can fly in and decry the carbon emitters that will destroy our planet in 12 years. Oh my.
    In related hot air gas bag news…….
    “However, The Daily Caller asked Ocasio-Cortez in early January if her New Green Deal would include banning private jets, heavy aircrafts with high rates of carbon emissions. The New York Democrat simply answered “no,” as she walked away and a staffer blocked access to any further questions……
    Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a big supporter of the New Green Deal, was previously asked by The Daily Caller News Foundation if he would ban private jets, but did not respond to the inquiry.
    Sanders campaign was criticized for spending $300,000 back in Oct. 2018, but a campaign spokeswoman told the DCNF that “the campaign bought carbon offsets from NativeEnergy to support renewable energy projects and invest in carbon reduction projects to balance out the emissions produced on the trip.”

    George Boardman’s blog – prompted by a commenter above, I went to Mr Boardman’s blog where his last (21jan19) post put up RR and a selected group of its commenters as an “example of why the GOP has a racism problem.” His post didn’t really answer the question because of its flawed logic, but it was an answer perfectly acceptable to any progressive who would happen on it. Mr Boardman, who also is a regular RR reader and frequent commenter, absolves himself and other RR liberals from being members of the RR discussion/debate cadre – only its rightwingers are visible to him.
    What started this latest post is his complete misunderstanding of my question about Rep Steven King’s actual remark that caused him to be expelled from House committee memberships. Boardman attributed that question to my ignorance about King’s history, and that I might only avail myself to rightwing publications and outlets, which again suggests that he may not be paying much attention to my commentaries. Anyway, I appreciate that he never misspelled my name.

    President Donald Trump on Thursday suggested that grocery stores are extending credit to federal employees facing economic crisis due to his shutdown.
    In statements from the White House that will keep fact-checkers busy, Trump defended comments by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross.
    Trump said that banks are “working along” with federal workers who are unable to meet mortgage payments.
    “That’s what happens at a time like this, they know the people, they’ve been working with them for years, and they work along. The grocery stores work along,” Trump claimed.

At this point, and a majority of Americans would agree, ‘shit for brains’ more succinctly describes those individuals who bought/buy into trumps constant stream of lies and misrepresentations that now number over 8,000 documented instances. Add to that disreputable information sites (aka fake news) like Breitbart, Daily Caller, and Drudge that are constantly used as references on this blog and one can only come to the conclusion that the con is on.

    Ttrump is doing just fine considering he picked up politics as a hobby and wiped the table clean of Crooked Closet Hillary and the RINOS and the Bushes. Not bad for a novice. He saiid on Election Day day he thought the New York real estate crowd was a tough crowd, but the Dems are more dshonest than any lying bunch he has ever run across in his entirre life.
    He has taken on lying corrupt Deep State, the lying racist media, the entertainment industry that takes pleasure in calling press secretaries ‘cunts’, people like M who deride FOTUS for being an immigrant, the Globalists, he God Haters, the America haters, the facist Leftinistas, the Western Civilization haters, the lying racist Fakesnews Industal Clinton Media Complex, and all the anti-semites like you and your unhinged TDS manginas. Trump is holding his own just fine.
    By all means, cling to and love on Chuck Todd and CNN and that manboy Rachel Maddcow on MSNBC and the Wa Compost, and theHuff-n-PUfff farting post and all the lying racists on your news feeds. Love on them till cows come and love on them but gooood. Enjoy their facist tactics and pound on your calm to your heart’s content. And Don’t forget to stand in line behind the growing ant-Semitism in the Leftinista Party and feign your moral superiority all you want. Hate on Christians and hard work and merit.
    Trump going just fine, thank you. One little man and a Twitter Machine. It can’t be that hard to throw him in the woodchipper like your loving, tolerate, and lightened bunch wants to Catholic school children….white boys innocently minding their own business.
    Hey, didn’t you recently declare, in a ft of fear and rage, that Trump will be gone by Spring? Relax, Roberta Flack. Spring is right around the corner. Trump will be going bye-bye in weeks….if you are dumb enough to read that crap you call news. News you can trust! Lol. And Buzzfeed got the Golden Shower wrong and they were wrong again just last Friday!! Sweet. You rock my world.

    And about the assignation of Daily Caller, Drudge, Breitbart, … as being unreliable news sources, I would also ask that people consider the source, and what other shenanigans said source has been up to. The genuflecting to that report is decidedly one-sided in circles much larger than the leftwing RR readership.
