[Now that President Trump has revealed that he does incorporate reasoned decision processes and make prudent decisions about engaging US forces in response to abundant provocations by murderous dictatorships, I wonder if the Dems will allow their minions to hear any of this on the media. One can niggle about whether he should have revealed how the latest all came about. gjr]

I thought the Left was for all protecting women’s rights and elevating women. I thunk wrong. I thought right when I previously stated that me thinks the trannies are hijacking the Women’s Movement
“Feminists in Struggle, a nationwide feminist organization, were also “strenuously opposed” to the bill. The door would be open for “sexual predators of various types, from voyeurs to rapists, to reinvent themselves as female by taking on female names and identities,” they explained. “Add to this reality that the majority of female prisoners have been molested, raped, sexually assaulted, trafficked, coerced or forced into pornography and/or prostitution, and the potential harm to incarcerated women and girls is greatly increased.”
“The radical feminist group Women’s Liberation Front also expressed “adamant opposition,” saying the bill would “put women prisoners and women prison guards and staff, at serious increased risk of male violence.” They labeled the bill a “stunning attack on incarcerated women and one of the most extreme examples of elevating men’s feelings over women’s physical and psychological safety.”
“Note: These objections are largely coming from the left. So why won’t Democrats listen?
“Other groups, such as the Transgender Law Center, are single-minded in their pursuit of “transgender equity.” They emphasize that the bill “will help ensure the safety and dignity of incarcerated transgender people within the criminal-justice system.” Similarly, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of California ignores…….

We’re going to have a plan. That’s subject to winning the House, Senate and presidency, which hopefully we’ll win all three. We’ll have phenomenal health care.”

PaulE 905pm – Re nationalized healthcare. As you again saw from the data, no nationalized healthcare systems (NHSs) are sustainable. And the Danes being “generally satisfied” with their healthcare system just goes to underline the other factor about NHSs, all of them have been reducing services and their availability, especially to their older and the more disease stricken citizens (each of them have their own ‘death committees’ that determine who will get what care when).
In the most recent survey, the best that could be said was that “Just under six out of ten people responded that they had confidence in the health system”. This indicates that more than 40% of Danes did NOT have confidence in their NHS (thereby also motivating the most recent “reform” that the NHS is going through). And the numerate reader will understand that this is a horrific stat since over 80% of people use the NHS for relatively minor healthcare services, and a large fraction of these have no confidence in their NHS. One can only presume that the fraction of those requiring life-preserving treatment have very little confidence in their NHS (again motivating “reform”). The innumerates among us gladly drink the kool-aid that the above ‘most people had confidence’ report means that Danes are “happy” with their NHS. Clearly they are not.
https://www.thelocal.dk/20190114/most-danes-happy-with-healthcare-survey
And the bombshell popped by candidate Delaney last told the nation that NONE of our hospitals could operate on the Medicare level payments the Dems plan to implement nationwide when they launch our NHS the level of care from which is foretold by our VA. And ‘Medicare for All’ was just one of the many butt stupid ways the Dems promised to ruin America. Tonight we’ll see these cynical elites double down on their intended “structural changes” for our country – a most dangerous and ignorant lot indeed.

Oh, I saw that wackjob’s column. It was like, “Where do you even begin?” It would take too much ink to deconstruct every single line of her column with facts, timelines, testimony etc. It could be done easily, but a waste of time. Ah, forget it. Let her live in everlasting ignorance.
. She is the one who wrote calling for the Union to endorse Hillary Clinton, the smartest, most capable, and experienced Woman in America…and the most qualified ever to run for President, roflmao.
She is the one who was 100% certain that Cohen flew to Prague to discuss business deals with the Russians, even though Mueller’s own report said it never happened. Never happened, fakenews. The only interaction I had with that hatchet wound was when she argued that George the Greek will get 6 months to 5 years…and he was colluding with the Russians. I said nope. BTW, George the Greek got 12 days and never was charged with colluding with the Russians. Heck, Carter Page was never charged with anything, Russian related or not, lol. And the list goes on and on. Oh, she knows, she knows.
Oh, I could write that the Free Beacon OP research via Fusion GPS did not involve Chris Steele or Russians. McCabe’s firing was due to the IG report, and multiple lies (4) he said to his own FBI, three under oath and for leaking. And McCabe fired by the FBI’s own recommendations from a field office supervisor after their own internal investigation. And McCabe will get his retirement, just has to wait 6 years for full benefits. He will draw a few hundred thousand dollars a year, poor thing.
Bottom line: The Union comment section is not the place to have lengthily exchange of facts. It would be like trying to cram a whole semester’s worth of 40 hours/week of reading into a few paragraphs. It would be like explaining to a child exactly how to build a nuclear facility with Ievery detail included. Why bother.

Since I cannot find the proper place to post to put this under, I will park it here. The blame game: Are religious people to blame for the high suicide rates in the LGBTQ communities across the Western World? What does the research say? New CA resolution (without force of law),
“WHEREAS, The stigma associated with being LGBT often created by groups in society, including therapists and religious groups, has caused disproportionately high rates of suicide, attempted suicide, depression, rejection, and isolation amongst LGBT and questioning individuals…”
“Note the absoluteness of their conclusions, particularly two words: create and cause. Stigma, created by religious groups, causes high rates of suicide.
“Let it sink in. Christians, Muslims, and Jews, your beliefs make gay people kill themselves. If this is indeed true, we are among the worst of the worst kinds of people. These legislators believe this is true and are doing something about it. California is trying to insist that churches, synagogues and mosques, their leaders, congregants, grade schools, universities, and families fully and uncritically support homosexual, bisexual, and transgender identities in every way.
“Thus, any teaching, preaching, writings or practices that are faithful to the clear sexual instructions of these faiths will be beyond the pale of official California values. They will not be tolerated. This charge makes this legislation overwhelmingly serious and consequential because of the seriousness of this charge. Either one party is directly culpable for deaths or the other of making such a dreadful allegation.”
