[Trump keeps sticking his foot in it at every turn. Now enough crap is starting to pile up so that a significant number of Rs are starting to voice opposition. That can mushroom in the Senate and end his administration. Right now the immediate pile consists of 1) Ukrainian pro quids per Mulvaney, 2) Abandoning Kurds in Syria, and 3) holding the G-7 in his Doral digs. All of which could have been avoided if someone would only tell him, 'Mr President, STFU!!' gjr]

Jordan Peterson, Kamala Harris, and Beto.
“But they claim that if Peterson’s views are openly expressed, he might convince other people that he’s right, and that could lead to the proliferation of conservative thought. Peterson’s “conservative perspectives on feminism and gender,” according to an opinion piece in The New York Times, “are very popular among young men and often are a path to more extreme content and ideologies.” Think about this. Conservative speech is dangerous because it is a slippery slope to the adoption of conservative ideas? This must be satire. Do these clueless cranks know how ridiculous they sound?”

The fact is that Hispanics are flourishing in the Trump economy.

Expect Democrats to increase their identity politics attacks in an effort to skew Latinos against Republicans over the next year and a half.

Hey, you yourself will be tossed in with the Deplorables soon enough. Judging solely by the one and only Green Libertarian, you are a bad libertarian. Bad, bad, bad. Think Rand Paul can just waltz into any restaurant he pleases? First, the Bernie Bro went hunting for dirty rotten Republicans with a list in his pocket and shot at poor Rand Paul at softball practice. An innocent bystander. Then his next door neighbor done came over while Rand was minding his own business mowing his yard and busted up the Kentucky Senator’s ribs. That ain’t showing the good ole Southern Hospitality the South is renown for, no siree. Then last week he walked into a Blue State CA restaurant staffed with a couple of Blue State New Yorkers and was told his free speech rights have been rescinded.

The ground truth of all collectivism is the Big Lie told to the poor and ignorant – your misery is the fault of those who have and produce, for they have cheated you out of your things and jobs. The Big Lie has come in various formats since the time of Lenin. Today his American progeny are the socialist Democrats who have no message of how they would create and spread the wealth, save take from those who already have it. These are very old ideas that go back to the caveman, and they resonate today as much as they did 10,000 years ago. When you examine the Left’s proposals, there is nothing new that doesn’t depend on ‘take and redistribute’. The hardworking nebishes of the land – the apolitical middle-roaders – have no clue that when the Left starts taking, then it will first and foremost be taken from them, because as Willie Sutton said, “Because that’s where the money is.” It was ever thus.

Even the Clinton news network wants answers from abc that are not forthcoming –
ABC News still hasn’t explained how it mistook footage from a Kentucky gun range for authentic video of fighting between Syria and Turkish forces but has promised to dole out internal “consequences” for the error, CNN’s Brian Stelter said Sunday.
“Let’s talk about the most egregious media error of the week,” he said during “Reliable Sources.” “This involves ABC News, showing video from a gun range in Kentucky that they said was video of a slaughter in Syria.”
“It’s actually from a Kentucky gun range,” Stelter added. “Now ABC says it regrets the error, but it has not explained what happened.”
The network issued a correction Monday after reportedly using video from the Knob Creek Gun Range in West Point, while the words “CRISIS IN SYRIA. ISIS prisoners escape as death toll rises in attacks,” appeared beneath it.
