Scott Adams: Republicans Need to Vote Because 'They're Coming for You Next' | Breitbart

Scott Adams: Republicans Need to Vote Because 'They're Coming for You Next' | Breitbart
"Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams does not vote. 
But for the first time, he said Sunday, he is thinking about it — thanks to the effort by opponents of Donald Trump to ostracize people who support the president.
Adams, who predicted Trump would win the 2016 election en route to becoming an influential political writer, was reacting on his daily Periscope broadcast to “conservative” Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin, who defended a Virginia restaurant owner who ejected White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Friday.
it is not altogether a bad thing to show those who think they’re exempt from personal responsibility that their actions bring scorn, exclusion and rejection. https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/wp/2018/06/23/sarah-huckabee-sanders-and-the-lost-art-of-shunning/ 
“This doesn’t end well,” Adams said, calling her position “anti-free speech,” in the sense that people would no longer feel free to disagree with one another. 
“If citizens can do what government used to be able to do, which is censor … Free speech is no longer practical. It’s still legal, but no longer practical.”
He noted that former CA director Gen. Michael Hayden had also compared the president to Hitler and his supporters to Nazis.
“I’m not a Republican and I don’t vote,” he said.
“But because I’ve been labeled as a Trump supporter … I’ve stopped appearing in public … because of the physical danger.”
If a “Blue Wave” appeared in November, and Democrats won the U.S. House and impeached the president, “I think it would be a dangerous situation for Trump supporters, wouldn’t you?” Adams observed.
“And I’m feeling like the best reason for Republicans to vote is they’re coming for you next. And they’re not hiding it. They’re coming for Trump right now, but they’re making it pretty clear they’re coming for Trump supporters next,” he said.
“The one and only way to protect yourself is to make sure they lose the election,” he concluded...

It's hard to believe that the FBI's political bias wasn't working against Trump - Washington Times

It's hard to believe that the FBI's political bias wasn't working against Trump - Washington Times:

Image result for flickr commons images washington dcAmong the things people hate about Washington is that no matter how many higher-ups are alleged to have broken laws and violated ethics codes, few are held accountable. The fix was in on Hillary Clinton even before she was interviewed with two of her lawyers present, which the IG report says violated accepted practices.
Mr. Horowitz and Mr. Wray are now testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee. While Democrats will categorize the IG report as nothing, Republicans must burrow in and get even more facts than the disturbing, even disgusting ones he has already uncovered. The Justice Department should then hold accountable those people who broke the law and the rules.

Canada, EU and Germany Signal Compliance With President Trump Trade Demands… | The Last Refuge

Canada, EU and Germany Signal Compliance With President Trump Trade Demands… | The Last Refuge

This win needs to be sipped slowly for maximum enjoyment.  

First, we would draw your attention to May 23rd, when President Trump announced an instruction to Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross to begin a Section 301 review of the auto industry a week prior to the implementation of the Steel and Aluminum tariffs.
At the time when all media were discussing other ‘matters’ CTH pointed out the strategy that was visible in the Auto-Sector.  China, the EU (specifically Germany), and Canada were the strategic trade targets in the approach.  About a week later, Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland snarkily announced her “sisterhood in trade” with EU Trade Minister Cecilia Malström, and how together they formed a strategy and were going to block President Trump.  They were very pleased with themselves (please watch).
Freeland and Prime Minister Justin from Canada, then strategized with Emmanuel from France and Angela from Germany on how they were going to use the G7 to embarrass President Trump on trade conflict issues via the summit; and subsequent use of media press conferencesThe entire thing back-fired, bigly President Trump announced the tariffs would continue until trade reciprocity improved.
It’s been two weeks since the best-laid-scheme was attempted. 
 In the interim, the international audience has watched President Trump’s unrelenting approach toward China..."

Dems’ true goal is to end all border enforcement

When Republicans this week proposed fixes to remove these perversities in the law and to expedite the asylum process and provide for more detention space, Chuck Schumer had no interest. He thought he could back down Trump unilaterally from the family separations — correctly, as it turned out — and Democrats have no interest in making it easier for Trump to remove anyone from the country.

Must read!!-----When the left wins-"If you think leftists are insufferable now, wait until they regain power..."

When the left wins:
"If you think leftists are insufferable now, wait until they regain power.  
It is not enough that we disagree about the ideological path forward for our country; the left has ascribed animus to our worldview, and by extension, to us individually. 
Leftists alone care for humanity – we (in their opinion) are advancing its death.
See the source imageWatch the nightly news. 

  • We are Nazis, fascists, racists, homophobes, xenophobes, white supremacists, misogynists, and murderers.  
  • We are ripping children from their parents.  Border Security is anti-immigrant.  We and the NRA want dead children.  
  • Tax reform was designed to benefit the evil rich, at the expense of the poor.  
  • Health care reform will kill millions of Americans.  
  • Being tough on North Korea is reckless, but willingness to discuss the surrender of nuclear ambitions is more reckless still.   
  • Education reform is intended to suppress people of color.  
  • Christianity is hatred toward women and gays.  
  • Opposition to climate change prognostications is science denial.

Hyperbole and projection much? 
Ascribing evil intentions to our worldview justifies their actions – any action, up to and including violence.
When reason (and sanity) has been abandoned, how does one bridge these ideological divides? 
In my opinion, our political and ideological divide will never be bridged. 
Our saving grace is that we conservatives currently hold a small majority of the political seats of power.
If and when the left regains power, do not think for a minute that leftists will work to bridge our differences.  
No, when they regain power, expect draconian measures to suppress the open expression and the living out of our worldview..."

White House press corps broken beyond repair - Washington Times

White House press corps broken beyond repair - Washington Times
"It all really began with Sam Donaldson.
Back in the days of Ronald Reagan, the brash and cantankerous reporter with the worst toupee in television history made his name by yelling at the president.
See the source imageHe’d yell at him at White House events, on the South Lawn (where Reagan would pretend he couldn’t hear Donaldson over the chopper blades of Marine One), even in the Rose Garden.
His aggressiveness (read: bad behavior) made Donaldson one of the first “star” reporters at the White House.
(He was voted best television correspondent in 1986, ‘87, ‘88 and ‘89 by readers of the Washington Journalism Review.)
Sure, there had been other famous reporters (early Helen Thomas, Bill Plante, Merriman Smith), but all of them conducted themselves with the proper decorum and respect when covering the White House.
Since then, it’s only gotten worse. Bill Clinton got a pass from the mostly liberal mainstream media, but when George W. Bush took office, the White House press corps went to hell..."
