BUY A GUN: Jews Are Going Underground: A month of terrible anti-Semitic attacks culminated with a stabbing yesterday of multiple people at a Hanukkah celebration at a rabbi’s home in Monsey, New York.
Wait, did I say buy a gun? Buy several. Query: At what point can President Trump invoke his power under the Civil Rights statutes and the Insurrection Act to declare that New York authorities are incapable of controlling their streets, and send National Guard troops to do so? And is his authority broad enough to suspend New York gun laws so that citizens can arm themselves? (Spoiler: Probably).

The shooter probably had Daddy Issues. A toddler’s first image/conception of God is their father. When some are hear at RR raging about Christians (especially near Holidays), they ain’t raging at Christians, they are raging against God. Daddy Issues, especially for women. Unresolved issues.
Oh, some don’t rage at all, like Gregory, Fish, or Scenes. It’s all good. They be cool. But, the wrath against Christmas will return by Easter. Maybe sooner since we will be blamed for Trump’s stabilizing numbers. :). Rather thick this year.
Others, neatly hide their unresolved issues by pointing to hypocritical Christians….and that is a big target rift with examples to support their arguments. You have failed to live up to What Would Jesus Do!! Hypocrites! I hate Hypocrites! Well, everybody hates hypocrites, duh.
Did the same thing myself by pointing out the Crusades…a neatly rehearsed knee jerk reaction anytime somebody dropped of the G word. I had unresolved issues, and I blamed my dad…for years! But, we got that all resolved and balanced the books well before he died. Once I got the G issue resolved, Daddy issues went away with a little bit of work, humility, and a leveling of the pride.

Always said Trump would release his tax returns in the 6 year of his Presidency.
You know, to say that Ukraine was not involved in the 2016 election to benefit Hillary, one would have to totally ignore the long well sourced 2017 Politico piece, the long NYT piece, and the fact that the Ukrainian government had an internal investigation into it and their findings was ‘Yes indeed, Ukraine lent assistance to Hillary Campaign to dig up dirt on her rival using a foreign power. You have to sweep all that aside….the former State Department, the DNC, the articles and the Ukrainian governments own investigation to say its Fakenews or something. A nothing burger.
Sure, that DNC operative says she never been to Ukraine. Tis true. She did not need to go to Ukraine. She went to the Ukrainian Embassy here in the good ole USofA as well as the US embassy here to coordinate with State. Dig up dirt on Manafort. We have his FBI file from 2007-2011 and need to update it. He just got volunteered to run Trump’s campaign. They did not find anything on Trump…yet.
Funny thing. In 2007 there was a big article about Paul Manafort in the WSJ. Long piece about his shady dealing with the pro-Russian political faction in Ukraine. Lobbiest, consultant or something. The author of the article was Glenn Simpson. That was when he was peddling scripts around DC and writing for the Journal….before Fusion GPS.
Anyway, one has to discard a boat load of facts to say the Ukraine Story is a bunch of hogwash, a conspiracy theory to distract from The Telephone Call. They don’t seem as interested in Russia, Russia, Russia interfering in our elections or how the Rooskies did. it. Odd. No curiosity to the biggest story in decades. Man, for awhile their if you went to the gym or store and was standing next to a Russian…..boy, your goose was cooked. Politically, you bought the farm. And then one day…..it just all sort of disappeared leaving only a trail of trash.
Cohen went to Prague! Snuck in the backdoor wearing a trench coat. Oh bother. Even Steele said that wasn’t true, WTF are you talking about? And Buzzfeed and the Lamestream media sent scores upon scores of reporters and researchers to canvass the whole Prague area checking sign in registries of every hotel, chalet, inn, and room for rent looking for any sign of Manafort every being to Prague his life. The mission was to do a deal with Putin…Trump hotels for a election helping hand, roflmao.
Newsflash. Cohen is a common name. Maybe Nellie got it wrong, like the wrong Michael Cohen. No passport, no credit cards receipts. Steele did not write a lot of the Dossier.

The Roaring Twenties was the most fun, dynamic, and frivolous decade in American history. Let’s make a new one
“Now I know we all hate each other because of Trump and everything, but look, there were a lot of people who weren’t nuts about Calvin Coolidge. Even though he was awesome. It doesn’t have to stand in the way of a good time. Whether he wins or he loses, the sky won’t fall, the sun will come up, and when it does, we owe it to ourselves to be stumbling home from a late night of frivolity.
Now I know what you’re going to say. The 1920s didn’t exactly end on a high note. Fine. You can’t have a party without a hangover. I mean, you could, but it would be a very dull party. I for one am willing to take this risk.
So come the New Year, let’s all meet at the Hotel Algonquin to tip a few glasses, cleverly quip, invent some new dances, and slip into this new decade in style. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the ’20s.”

Bill de Blasio blames the rise of anti-Semitism on Trump. Sure, blame Trump.
There has been a noted reluctance of the media, not to mention the cowardly political class in New York, to note the racial angle of the wave of anti-Semitic violence erupting recently in New York. Mayor Warren Wilhelm (“that’s de Blasio to you buster!”) naturally blames it on Trump.
That’s one reason to take in the perspective of Henry Louis Gates, a certified Harvard liberal and old friend of President Obama (remember the famous “beer summit” at the White House?), who wrote the following about the roots of contemporary anti-Semitism in the New York Times:
“While anti-Semitism is generally on the wane in this country, it has been on the rise among black Americans. A recent survey finds not only that blacks are twice as likely as whites to hold anti-Semitic views but — significantly — that it is among the younger and more educated blacks that anti-Semitism is most pronounced.”

ROFLMAO Todd Bashes Christians in MTP Rant Against Misinformation, Trump
“In the midst of their conversation, Todd latched onto a random, almost year-old letter to the Lexington Herald Leader. It was a letter he held up as a “fascinating attempt to kind of explain why some people support President Trump.” Reading from the letter, Todd proceeded to bash Christians, Jews, and Muslims for their religious beliefs:
“Why do good people support Trump? It’s because people have been trained from childhood to believe in fairy tales. This set their minds up to accept things that make them feel good. The more fairy tales and lies he tells the better they feel. Show me a person who believes in Noah’s ark, and I will show you a Trump voter.”
“Look, this gets at something, Dean, that my executive producer likes to say, voters want to be lied to sometimes. They don’t always love being told hard truths,” Todd proclaimed.
In Todd’s report about the evolution of fake news, he spoke with Ben Nim, from Graphika, a social media analysis company. According to Nim, there were “four Ds” when looking at how leaders try to deceive. As explained by Todd:
“Number one, dismiss, attack critics to erode their credibility and invalidate the facts. (…) Number two, distort. If the facts are against you, make up your own facts. (…) Number three, distract. Whataboutism or the “I’m rubber, you’re glue” defense. If are you accused of something, accuse someone else of the same thing. (…) Number four, dismay. Threats and intimidation.
Interestingly, the liberal media have done every one of those things. Todd and the CNN media team have attacked their critics and those who reject the narrative. In fact, later in the show, Todd would compare Fox News to Russian state media. On the second point, NBC and other news outlets were being sued for falsely labeling a 16-year-old conservative as racist because they wanted to invent a racist incident on the step of the Lincoln Memorial. Just to name a few.“

Paul Emeryville. Of course I can explain to the readers why Trump does not release his tax returns NOW. The only reason is because “He has something to hide!!!!!” There is no other plausible explanation.
Or maybe Trump just likes to watch your head pop. I know I certainly do. Release the tax returns NOW? We all know the difference between a demand and a request. Trump, being a certified narcissist, needs to be buttered up. Have you tried asking nicely. Have you asked “pretty please with cherries on top”?
Maybe Trump will release his 2005 tax returns if you really smooze up to him. Rachel Madcow already released his 2005 Form1040 to a captivated audience. It was a stroke of genius and replaced Geraldo’s Al Capone’s vault story as the bonehead story of all time.
