Pot is dangerous, not funny -- a doctor tells us why | Fox News
Pot is dangerous, not funny -- a doctor tells us why | Fox News:
"...As a physician, my doctoring knowledge tells me that making marijuana legally available is a bad idea, except perhaps for certain medical conditions.
Marijuana is a potent mind-altering drug that can cause serious harm, as I explain below.
It will be just one more substance we have to warn our children to stay away from.
"...As a physician, my doctoring knowledge tells me that making marijuana legally available is a bad idea, except perhaps for certain medical conditions.
It will be just one more substance we have to warn our children to stay away from.
As we all know, many people use marijuana even where it remains illegal.
But legalization will lead to increased use and make many people believe it is not all that dangerous.
...What is especially concerning is the fact that the marijuana of today is not the same as it was back in the 1960s or 1970s.
Over the past few decades, the concentration of THC in the cannabis plant has been increasing, making it more potent than ever.
...Marijuana has both short- and long-term effects on the body..."

FBI tries to claw back credibility – and maybe get on Trump's good side
FBI tries to claw back credibility – and maybe get on Trump's good side:
"Suddenly, suddenly, the FBI isn't so blasé about the doings of the Clinton Foundation, launching a new investigation into its apparently corrupt activities. Might it really be a quest for the FBI's lost credibility?
According to a report from John Solomon of The Hill:"

New tax law is a huge win for renters | New York Post
New tax law is a huge win for renters | New York Post:
"Renters came out winners under the new tax law.
For over a century, the federal tax code catered to homeowners and treated renters like second-class citizens.
Homeowners have been able to deduct interest on their mortgages, home-equity loans and property taxes.
Meanwhile, everyone — including renters — footed the bill for these deductions by paying higher rates.
The new tax law at last begins leveling the playing field between renters and homeowners.
Millions of New Yorkers and Californians will reap the benefits, because these states have among the lowest rates of homeownership in the nation.
So ignore the hyperventilating from Democratic politicians that tax reform is a gift to the rich.
New York Sen. Chuck Schumer condemns the new tax law as “a gut shot to the middle class” while “rewarding the wealthiest among us.”
The truth is just the opposite.
Tax reform benefits renters, who often live in cities and tend to have lower incomes — a key Democratic constituency.
Under the new tax law, everyone — renters and homeowners alike — will have their tax rates cut and their standard deduction almost doubled.
Most will end up paying less..."

In the book, Trump has an impossibly short attention span, refuses to learn from policy briefs and fails to grasp the fundamentals of U.S. government.You never see dementia-Trump in public because he only lives in the heads of Democrats and reporters — but I repeat myself — who are desperate to believe, and who are making fools of themselves in the process."-Posted by Glenn Reynolds at 8:30 am
Where was this version of Trump when giving one of his dozens of interviews, hosting his rallies, or delivering public remarks at any point between 2015 and now?Yes, Trump mostly spoke extemporaneously during the campaign, often repeating words and themes, a phenomenon otherwise known as speaking aloud.
But he’s also delivered dozens of speeches off teleprompters, proving he can actually read, frequently going off-script to offer commentary and then returning to the prepared remarks.During the campaign, from January to September in 2016, he hosted more than four-and-a-half hours worth of press conferences, compared to Hillary Clinton’s 38 minutes worth.Here’s an experiment: Put a truly mentally slow older person, like Dana Milbank, for example, on stage in front of reporters to answer a succession of questions for one hour. Then compare it to the multiple times Trump did it, and see who comes out sharpest.As president, Trump frequently approaches the press pool in order to answer a range of questions, something former President Obama rarely did.In Wolff’s book, he says Trump is perpetually distracted, can’t train his mind on substance, and couldn’t recognize his own friends.Contrast that account with the transcript of a 30-minute interview Trump gave at his golf club in Florida on Dec. 28 to the New York Times. It shows him talking at length about the Russia investigation, the threat from North Korea, and immigration. He even interrupts his thoughts to speak with guests he presumably recognizes.
Trump's DHS Says 700-Mile Border Wall To Cost Just $1.8 Billion Per year - Breitbart
Trump's DHS Says 700-Mile Border Wall To Cost Just $1.8 Billion Per year - Breitbart:
"The pending 2018 budget includes $1.6 billion to build 60 miles new barriers in Texas and to upgrade 14 miles older barriers in California.
The proposed cost $1.8 billion per year cost would consume less than one-2,088th of the 2018 federal budget, expected to be around $3,800 billion. In turn, the wall’s cost would be offset by a reduced northward flow of illegals and drugs, so cutting the federal government’s cost for welfare, unemployment and policing."

"I saw an article by the AP the other day where they were ripping Trump as a know-nothing because he tweeted that the Northeast could use a little of that global warming.
The article said 2017 was the warmest year on record except for El Niño years, which means that it was not the warmest on record.
The article could have been in The Onion for how worthless it was.
The intent was to make people believe that 2017 was the warmest on record.
The article should say that El Niño, La Niña, the Jet Stream, polar vortices, solar activity, and other natural phenomena control the weather and climate.
Meanwhile, a significant number of us repeat over and over again that the climate is cyclical and natural, as it always has been, and we are called stupid.
There was an article in my Illinois paper this week that said in Illinois, 2017 was the sixth warmest on record.
That's another worthless piece of information unless we see the top five.
My guess is that some are in the 1930s, which means that eighty years ago, Illinois was warmer than today, and the theory falls apart..."

Hellzapoppin: FBI, DOJ, and Clinton Share the Hot Seat
"...On the Democrat side of the aisle is the threat to shut down the government if the president refuses to extend Obama's unconstitutional run around our immigration laws.
What strategic genius advised them that it would be a good idea to have Grandma worrying about her Social Security checks and soldiers going unpaid to benefit 700,000 illegal aliens, aliens certain to be a drag on our economy and a negative value to our society?

What strategic genius advised them that it would be a good idea to have Grandma worrying about her Social Security checks and soldiers going unpaid to benefit 700,000 illegal aliens, aliens certain to be a drag on our economy and a negative value to our society?
The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) tells us that nearly half of illegal aliens who are eligible for DACA have only a "basic" proficiency of the English language and 24 percent are considered "below basic" or "functionally illiterate." This blows away the claims of the [l]eft that D[REAM]ers are productive members of our society, when it appears most don't want to assimilate at all. ...
Over 92% of foreign nationals in our prisoners are illegal aliens.
Missing from the DACA extension proponents' calculus are these facts:
Read it all!!Illegal aliens account for 13.6 percent of all offenders sentenced for crimes committed in the United States, even though they ... represent [only] 3.5 percent of the population.Illegals account for 12 percent of murder sentences, 20 percent of kidnapping sentences, and 16 percent of drug-trafficking sentences.There are 2.1 million illegal and legal immigrants convicted of crimes, but 1.2 million criminal aliens remain at large in the United States and have not been deported. Remember, the prime demographic for violent crime is young males, broadly covered by the "dream" amnesty.
As of 2013, it was estimated that there were 630,700 illegal aliens residing in Arizona (including American-born anchor babies), a population larger than the total population of any single colony at the time of our Founding. Over 10 percent of the state's public school population is composed of illegal alien children. The Arizona Department of Corrections estimates that illegal aliens compose 17 percent of its prison population and 22 percent of all felony defendants in Maricopa County. When coupled with the fiscal strain of health care and incarceration, the total cost of illegal immigration is $2.4 billion a year.Overall, 87 percent of illegal immigrant families are on welfare..."
Ex-Secret Service Officer Reveals How Bill Clinton's Extramarital Sex Romps Endangered Lives of Agents
Ex-Secret Service Officer Reveals How Bill Clinton's Extramarital Sex Romps Endangered Lives of Agents:
"During one of these rendezvous, a Secret Service officer dubbed “Reverend” hurried to run a red light in order to keep up with Bill Clinton’s car and an oncoming vehicle t-boned him leaving him with a grave head injury.
Bill Clinton and the other agents left the scene of the crash and left the DC police to handle the accident. The police had no idea the president of the United States was slithering around town incognito for sex romps.
Even more egregious, the gravely injured officer had to fight for his medical bills to be paid

Psychologist: Having best friends should be banned because it's 'exclusionary' - The College Fix
Psychologist: Having best friends should be banned because it's 'exclusionary' - The College Fix: "In the latest overly empathetic attempt at shielding young people from the harsh realities of life, a shrink wonders if schools should ban children from having — wait for it — best friends.
Writing in US News, child and family psychologist Dr. Barbara Greenberg says “there is something dreadfully exclusionary” about the concept of a “best friend,” and notes some American and European schools already forbid kids from having them.
...“And, if kids have best friends, does that also imply that they have ‘worst friends?'”"

Trump keeps his promise: Blacks and Hispanics do better with him than Obama | Fox News
"Democratic warnings that President Trump would make life worse for minorities were discredited once again Friday, with the release of new unemployment statistics for December.
In just under one year in office, the president and the Republican Congress have helped minorities make dramatic gains.
Since taking the reins from President Obama, President Trump and the GOP-controlled Congress have embraced free-market and pro-liberty economic policies.
Now – after a year of reducing regulations, approving a tax cut, and encouraging stricter standards for numerous welfare programs at the state level – the economy is thriving.
Working-age minorities are benefitting in ways they have rarely, if ever, have enjoyed in the modern era..."

"Hillary Clinton could be in for a rough 2018. The former Obama-era Secretary of State is facing three investigations and could be part of a fourth investigation, all of which the Clintons insist is nothing more than a manufactured attempt by “Trump” and “Fox News” to divert attention from special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia election probe.

..."That's where Pence ran afoul of the local thought police.
His religious belief is that marriage is something for a man and a woman.
His belief is not radical.
It is shared by a majority of the world, and was the belief just a few years ago of then-President Barack Obama, former President Bill Clinton and never-to-be President Hillary Rodham Clinton.
But to some people, that particular religious belief is not acceptable.
Those holding it need persecuting.
Those people demand that Pence bake their cake.
