Jig Wiggly is a racist. He was born a racist. It’s bred into him. But, he is not alone. We are all born racists. The proof of this unassailable fact is judging by the color of one’s skin. Sure, some racists have a 140 IQ, some have a 90 IQ, but all are born racists. MLK is being thrown under the bus precisely because he DID NOT judge a man (or woman) solely by the color or their skin.
Boy, the Huff-n-Puff Post certainly has changed.
“The point I was making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn’t. But she is a typical white person who, uh, if she sees somebody on the street that she doesn’t know there’s a reaction that’s been been bred into our experiences that don’t go away and that sometimes come out in the wrong way and that’s just the nature of race in our society. We have to break through it…” – Senator Barack Obama
“Can you imagine if Hillary Clinton said someone was a “typical black person?”
“Seriously, Barack Obama basically called all white people racist. You know, because when us typical white folk walk down the street and see an African American coming our way we run to the other side of the road.”

What struck me most since the Squad alleged that Pelosi is a racist (and by extension all white people who are at odds with the Squad)) was this statement by Tlaib: Pelosi Has to ‘Be Aware’ We Are Women of Color When She Targets Us.”
Hmmm. So, when you talk to the Squad and call them out on policy differences, one must first and foremost see them through the prism of race and their group identity. Not their harebrained ideas, but through Identity Politics. Got it. See our differences first.
“House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden have both recently been accused of racism, or engaging in racist tropes, or whatever we’re calling it now. The attacks are nonsensical and absurd. Ultimately, so too are the attacks on Trump. Racism has become the new pornography. We know it when we see it, maybe. Or maybe we are wrong. Maybe saying “Whiteness is bad” is perfectly fine and everything is about the color of our skin.”
“I hope this isn’t the case. But I worry my hope is a rusted penny dropped in a fountain that can grant no wishes. My better and sensible mind knows that, just like pornography, racism will flourish under a “I know it when I see it”

“President Trump has won the second of three lawsuits alleging he violated the Constitution because foreigners and state officials patronize his businesses, such as the Trump Hotel in Washington, D.C.
“The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeal dismissed the claim by Maryland and the District of Columbia that Trump was violating the Constitution’s domestic and foreign emoluments clauses.
“In throwing out this latest suit, the Fourth Circuit chastised the plaintiffs for wasting the court’s time with a plainly meritless case.
“The court also scolded federal judge Peter Messitte, a Clinton appointee, for not throwing out the case sooner and for refusing to let the president appeal his erroneous rulings. Judge Messitte’s faulty reasoning “blinks reality,” the court said, and his actions “amounted to a clear abuse of discretion.”
“Judge Messitte’s rulings were so erroneous that the Fourth Circuit didn’t even wait for an appeal. It accepted the president’s request for writ of mandamus — a rarely granted procedural tool that allows early review of an otherwise non-appealable issue — to take the case away from Judge Messitte, reverse his rulings, and force him to throw the case out for good, without the possibility of further appeal.”

I took great interest in the fact that when Trump went to Merry O’ England, the FBI questioned Steele for 16 hours. Time will tell what the investigators were told. That time is approaching.
John Solomon on the Dossier.
“Multiple sources familiar with the FBI spreadsheet tell me the vast majority of Steele’s claims were deemed to be wrong, or could not be corroborated even with the most awesome tools available to the U.S. intelligence community. One source estimated the spreadsheet found upward of 90 percent of the dossier’s claims to be either wrong, nonverifiable or open-source intelligence found with a Google search.
“In other words, it was mostly useless.”

The Lefties keep telling us that the FICA warrants (especially the one on George the Greek to literally spy on the Trump Campaign) did not rely on the Dossier. In so, no other evidence or sources have been revealed to date. Time will tell.
Is this not the same crowd who told us about Kavanaugh’s high school days of running a serial gang rape ring? I believe it is.
—————-
Molly Hemingway, another reporter will unassailable credentials , wrote a book on the Kavanaugh circus
We Can’t Get Him One Way, We’ll Get Him Another
“They refrained from attacking accuser Christine Blasey Ford personally—they did not publicize her own alcohol-fueled escapades “in high school and college,” which were “dramatically at odds with her presentation in the media”—but they aggressively disputed her claims, and Kavanaugh “wanted a public hearing to clear his name.”
While Ford’s lawyers and the Democrats stalled, Kavanaugh was attacked with additional accusations. The media, drunk on the prospect of the Me Too movement toppling a Trump Supreme Court pick, hyped every new allegation. But unlike other Me Too cases, each new charge was less believable. The Democrats and their allies sought to establish a pattern of sexual misconduct by Kavanaugh, but the pattern they actually demonstrated was their willingness to promote any story, no matter how outlandish, to stop his nomination.
“After Ford and Kavanaugh finally testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Democrats leaned on Republican Sen. Jeff Flake and dramatically secured a delay for a new round of FBI interviews. This “frustrated Kavanaugh’s supporters, but the investigation turned out to be a godsend.” By the end of that weeklong effort, “each of the three main allegations against him was crumbling.” Reviewing the claims against him emphasizes that they ranged from implausible to insane.”
A Herd of Unproven Allegations
“Julie Swetnick’s lurid tales of high-school gang rape were “obviously ridiculous,” and her lawyer, Michael Avenatti, is a sleaze who is now facing a multitude of unrelated federal felony charges. Deborah Ramirez’s allegations were also self-discrediting. She refused to testify, no one at Yale University remembered seeing Kavanaugh expose himself to her, and she claimed to have clarified her recollections by spending six days wracking her alcohol-soaked memories “with an attorney provided by Democrats.”
“Blasey Ford’s story was the most credible of the accusations, and her emotional testimony impressed many. But former prosecutor Rachel Mitchell’s gentle questioning revealed how insubstantial Ford’s claims were: no location, no date, no recollection of how she got to the party or got home. Furthermore, the witnesses Ford named as having attended the party, including her longtime friend Leland Keyser, recalled nothing of the sort.
“Initially, Keyser had declared that although she could not corroborate her friend’s story, she still believed her. But “Justice on Trial” reveals that after her first interview with the FBI, Keyser had time to reflect and review details of the summer of 1982, and2 she lost confidence in Ford’s account of the incident and came to the conclusion that she had to supplement her statement to the FBI…During the second interview, Keyser described the summer with much more detail, adding that she didn’t believe there was any way she was at this gathering. She expressed concern at the pressure she had felt to go along with the story…She detailed certain parts of the story that didn’t make sense to her.
Keyser no longer trusted her old friend’s account, and though she did not want Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court, she would not lie to try to keep him off of it. Without corroboration, and with her inconsistencies exposed, Ford’s tale withered, leaving Democrats with nothing but bizarre theories about the juvenile jokes in Kavanaugh’s high school yearbook (had he perjured himself by wrongly defining “boof”?) and petulant complaints that he had become too upset when they falsely accused him of gang rape.

The question is not something of the past….more oriented to future programs and how you feel about liars. Nothing seems to upset you than someone who lies. Nothing. It’s like a trust issue you have or the search for that perfect human. Knowing how a lie upsets you so, i was wondering if you could bring yourself to interview a known liar. Any known liar. Most journalists would interview Charles Manson or a Richard Spenser, but you are not a journalist. Maybe you got daddy issues or abandonment issues, I don’t have a clue, nor care.
Just judging from your recoiling at any lie, I was asking if you would have a known liar on your program…ever.

Thanks Fish. There are some folks who I know every other word coming out of their mouths is a lie. Not a mistake, but a lie. I expect it, so I just take it with a grain of salt and consider the source.
(DON’T) LEAVE IT TO CLEAVER
Roll Call has a good account of what happened on the House floor yesterday as Nancy Pelosi violated House rules for the all-important purpose of calling President Trump racist. FOX News has a fuller story here.
When Rep. Doug Collins challenged the propriety of Pelosi’s remarks, Pelosi asserted that she had cleared them with the House parliamentarian. This appears to have been a lie. Roll Call reports:
Collins set off a more than hour-long review and debate over Pelosi’s comments before a decision could be rendered.
Finally, after a staffer could be heard saying to Cleaver, who was presiding over the House, that it was time to announce, “the chair is prepared to rule” and read a prepared statement, Cleaver instead said, “the chair is ready to make a statement” and set aside the printed remarks.
“I came in here to try to do this in a fair way. I kept warning both sides let’s not do this, hoping we could get through,” the Missouri Democrat said, referring to multiple times during the debate in which he had to admonish members for their language that didn’t comply with House rules.
“We don’t ever, ever, want to pass up an opportunity, it seems, to escalate. And that’s what this is,” he added, referring to Republicans’ motion to strike Pelosi’s remarks. “I dare anybody to look at any of the footage and see if there was any unfairness, but unfairness is not enough because we want to just fight.”
You won’t catch me screaming “Nancy Lied! Liar! Liar!!” No, I just would say ”Nancy Pelosi is a lying sack of shit”. Same with the lying sacks of shit AOC and Omar. To each their own. I know it’s who they are. Speaking of a lying sack of shit….
“When Rep. Doug Collins challenged the propriety of Pelosi’s remarks, Pelosi asserted that she had cleared them with the House parliamentarian. This appears to have been a lie.”…
“The Hill adds some poignant details to the story. As deliberations took place, the Hill notes, Pelosi exited the chamber despite members who have been flagged for potential violations being expected to remain on the floor. she apparently knew what was coming.”

In other news, time to crap on the Wa Compost…again.
Wa Compost quote: “[Trump’s combustible formula of white identity politics] has pushed Democratic presidential candidates sharply to the left on issues such as immigration and civil rights, as they respond to the liberal backlash against him.”
The good news is that the Post has been forced by events to acknowledge that Democratic presidential candidates have moved “sharply to the left.” The bad news is that the Post has a fallback position: the move to the left is President Trump’s fault.

The pony tail of ignorance has another prognostication go down in flames, no impeachment for your popcorn fest!
The vote — 332 to 95, with one lawmaker voting “present” — marked the first time the Democratic-controlled chamber has weighed in on impeachment, an issue that has created a widening schism within the party. Progressive newcomers and several 2020 candidates have pushed for impeachment proceedings, but the House leadership, including Speaker Nancy Pelosi, has been resistant.
All Republicans joined with 137 Democrats and the lone independent, Justin Amash, to table the resolution. Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., voted against killing the resolution, which his spokesperson said was because he believed the House should have sent it to the Judiciary Committee for consideration.

Jig 255pm – It appears that with you the requirement to labor the obvious is always withstanding. You socialists have no idea how open markets work. The demand for physicians and healthcare workers is self-evident as the population grows. Their supply is hindered by both regulatory hurdles and price controls that is the specialty of your kind of governance. When you talk about too many old people causing the ‘doctor shortage’, you’re blowing it out from where the sun don’t shine.

Rebane-
Seems as if you somehow, through osmosis maybe, understand the ails of the health care system better than the CDC, AMA, and the WHO. But of course, you are the world’s expert on anything that crosses your desk, just ask you, so I shouldn’t be surprised. Your sheep will believe.
“The demand for physicians and healthcare workers is self-evident as the population grows” is buffoonery at it’s maximum. You feign ignorance of the fact that YOUR segment of the population siphons the majority of the health care, not the young illegal immigrants you and Mr Juvinall cast judgement upon. You expect a one to one increase in the number of “doctors” entering the system to match the gray wave exiting the planet.
The “demand is self evident” but this is not the 60’s when doctors left school for family medicine and general practice. The vast bulk of today’s doctors are specialists, sorry if you can’t find an open GP in Grass Valley, but you’ll be far better off today if you need a neuro surgeon than you would have been 20 years ago. It isn’t simple, though you pretend that is nothing more than a simple game fostered on us by “the left.”

Jig 329pm – Jig, you continue to embarrass, I claim no expertise per se. You are welcome to add to your hot air and show me anywhere in this 13-year archive where such expertise is claimed. That or a retraction will be your next post.
But re the physician supply. I’m sure you tried to make a point somewhere in there, but I wasn’t able to dig it out. Can you say it more simply? For openers, you don’t seem to share the definition of ‘demand’ that is taught in all the economics schools. For you it’s something calendar based, or some such. The rest of us base it instead on the notion of shortage.

in the “he’s not really a racist” category –Senator Lindsey Graham said, ” “A racist says ‘Go back to Somalia’ because you’re Somali or Muslim or whatever. That’s just the way he is. It’s more narcissism than anything else.”
In other words, trump is not a racist… he is just mentally ill.. In 2015, Graham referred to Trump as a “race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot,” but hey, that’s what political parties are for, to turn the other cheek and put your finger to the wind and your head up your ass.
And all this time I thought trump was just a racist. thanks to Graham I now know trump is a mentally ill racist. Who would have thought?

Rebane-
I gave you six or more links regarding the doctor shortage yesterday. Obviously you didn’t deign to read them. You apparently don’t need to. In these articles from across the nation (not just California) the notion of shortage seems to be well understood and established, despite your fingering with semantics and assertion to the contrary. Again, they (not just I) must all be wrong if only you are right.

Answer Rebane or he will stomp his feet like Punchy, but worse. Drop everything and be at Jigger’s beck and call. He wants to argue.
Heck, I met a local whose daughter went off to John Hopkins around the time Obamacare had been launched for a year or two. One of the top physicians pulled her aside and had a long talk with her to not get into medicine. The paperwork, the reimbursement rate, etc….don’t do it. So, she left and came back home to decide what to do next. My Doc dropped taking Obamacare after giving it a try. It’s quite the dirty word….and he was their earliest advocate. There has been warnings of Dr. shortages in the pre-Obamacare debate. I got laughed at over at the old Union site when Jeffie was the moderator. I was ringing the warnings about doctor shortages ahead, not enough in the pipeline. They mocked me. Hurt my feelings.
And those firm projections of 4% and 5% GDP annual growth and maybe 9% in twenty five years to pay for it. A savings of $1,500 per family. And Obama saying we need more doctors and if a black person wants to go to a black doctor, he should get that too. And he talked about training new doctors. We need more doctors, duh.
Thanks for nothing, my fine feathered friends with bird brainer. Love ya, chia tea.

Looks like Russia’s slave in Syria has problems and vlads troops can do no better –
AMMAN (Reuters) – Russia has sent special forces in recent days to fight alongside Syrian army troops struggling to make gains in a more than two month assault in northwestern Syria to seize the last opposition bastion, senior rebel commanders said.
They said although Russian officers and troops had been behind front lines directing the operations, using snipers and firing anti-tank missiles, this was the first time Moscow had sent ground troops on the battlefield in the campaign that began at the end of April.
“These special Russian forces are now present in the battlefield. The Russians are intervening directly now,” said Captain Naji Mustafa, spokesman for the Turkey-backed National Liberation Front (NLF) coalition of rebel factions.
Russian ground forces entered the battle with government forces to seize the strategic Humaymat hilltops in northern Hama that fell into rebel hands last week, regaining it after previous successive attempts by the army failed.
“When (Syrian President Bashar) al-Assad’s forces failed to advance, Russia then intervened directly … after bombing the area with more than 200 sorties,” Mustafa said.
Russian defense ministry officials were not immediately available for comment.
More than two months of Russian-backed operations in and around Idlib province have yielded little or nothing for Russia and its ally President Bashar al Assad.
It is a rare case of a military campaign that has not gone in Russia’s favor since it intervened in 2015.
“Russia did not only fail but has been exposed to defeat,” Mustafa said.
The head of a major rebel group said Moscow’s deployment of undisclosed numbers of ground forces came only after elite Syrian troops known as the Tiger Forces and allied militias were unable to make “any significant territorial gains.”
“The Syrian army found itself in a crisis and were forced to ask for Russian troops on the battlefield,” said Jamil al-Saleh, the head of Jaish al Izza rebel group

Hmm. Who is that black man with a twitter machine? Now, be nice.
“Jon Miller, host of Blaze TV’s “White House Brief,” exposed Pressely’s not-so-veiled bigotry in a single tweet.
“Well by being black, my voice is automatically a black voice. That’s how it works,” he wrote. “What she ACTUALLY means is we don’t need minorities who don’t want to be a progressive voice.”
“And that, my friend, is the true definition of discrimination.”
