“A growing number of illegal aliens from terrorist nations – including Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh – have tried to enter the U.S. through Mexico in the last few years,” Judicial Watch said.

Let them eat Big Macs – why Trump gets America | Spectator USA

Let them eat Big Macs – why Trump gets America...More than snobby Washington ever will

"...JESSICA (Harvard ’09, JP Morgan ’10 to ’12, Obama White House Staffer ’13 to ’16) is returning to her Georgetown apartment after her morning Tibetan throat singing class. 
There is a yoga mat under her arm. 
She shares the apartment, and a lovingly open relationship with ZAK (Columbia ’10, Senior Green Urban Planning Correspondent at Vox.com, Fellow of the Aspen Institute for Ideas ’14 to ’17), who is blogging at their Hygge-influenced open-plan kitchen. 
JESSICA looks visibly disturbed.

ZAK

Honey, what is it, is everything OK?

JESSICA

It’s… It’s…

ZAK

Don’t worry about the Whole Foods delivery. It came just after you left. The chia seeds, flax seeds, pea protein, dried goji berries, resistant potato starch, turmeric powder, and collagen hydrolysate were all in there. They even remembered the coconut oil this time!

JESSICA

No it’s not that.

ZAK

What is it?

JESSICA

It’s Trump… Did you see what he did this time?

ZAK

The Big Macs?

JESSICA begins to ‘literally shake’. Her yoga mat falls to the floor and unfurls.

JESSICA

Not just the Big Macs… He put packets of Hot Mustard sauce in the Eleanor Roosevelt silver servewear… Zak, I – I don’t think…

ZAK pushes back on his chair and slowly runs both hands through his hair. He gets up and hugs JESSICA.

ZAK

It’s going to be fine baby. Just remember your breathing exercises, OK? Alternate nostril breathing, just like you were doing this morning, OK?

JESSICA begins to weep.

JESSICA
(Sobbing)

I think I need to some send some tweets now.

FIN.

The Trump presidency is the great bowling ball that has smashed the snobberies and shibboleths of liberals worldwide. 

Like a maimed group of skittles, their assumptions about the world, about politics and about human nature itself have collapsed. 

All that survives is a near carnal sense of rage..."

Britain's 'First Transgender Family' Now Transitioning Their 5-Year-Old Son To Female | Daily Wire
"A family dubbed Britain’s "first transgender family" has announced that they are encouraging the gender transition of their five-year-old son, Jayden.
According to the family, Jayden, a biological male, likes dresses and hates "everything about being a boy."
The little boy's "step-dad," Greg Rogers, is a 27-year-old biological female who now identifies as a male. 

The child’s mother is a 21-year-old woman named Jody.
...Jody and Greg have signed Jayden up for Young People's Gender Service where he will receive gender-related counseling. 

The five-year-old is too young to receive hormone treatment now, but can in a few years, noted Heart.com..."

Why Aren't Gillette Razor Blades the Best That Blades Can be for More Than a Few Months at the Beginning of Each Product Cycle?

...Speaking of Gillette, Mickey Kaus wrote in Slate in 2010:

Mickey’s Assignment Desk–The Gillette Cycle of Despair: Here’s an evergreen story idea I’ve wanted someone to nail down for decades: Why do Gillette’s fancy razors seem to work so well when they are introduced, then gradually get worse and worse until a new, fancier razor is introduced? … The most recent example: When I first bought a Gillette Fusion five- blade razor, I thought it was absurd (and absurdly expensive). But it was fantastic. Best shave ever, etc. And the blades lasted for months. … A couple of years later, however–in an all-too-familiar development–I’ve noticed that the expensive replacement blades for this razor don’t seem to cut as smoothly, and they seen to wear out much faster. Experienced Gillette customers intuitively know what this means: the company is about to introduce a newer, more complex, and even more expensive shaving system. … And sure enough, here it is , the Fusion ProGlide! ..."

Media had no problem calling it a border 'crisis' in 2014 under Obama

Media had no problem calling it a border 'crisis' in 2014 under Obama:

Both Democrats and most news media are yelling as often as they can that there is no border "crisis," even though they spent the last year telling everyone there was and even though they had no problem explicitly calling it a "crisis" in 2014, when the situation was the exact same as it is now.
"We now have an actual humanitarian crisis on the borer that only underscores the need to drop the politics and fix our immigration system once and for all," then-President Barack Obama said in the Rose Garden in 2014. "In recent weeks we've seen a surge of unaccompanied children arrive at the border, brought here and to other countries by smugglers and traffickers."
This is no different than what President Trump said from the Oval Office on Tuesday.

I’ll take Two bags please. – Da Tech Guy Blog:
"The other day I was in line at a store when I overheard the gentleman ahead of me vehemently insist that he didn’t want to take a second bag “…to Save the Earth!”
He said that was such earnest sincerity that I’m sure he believed it.
And I’m sure that when I chuckled at him, that I hurt his delicate feelings.
But if anybody believes that by not taking the extra plastic bag they can “Save the Earth” they are delusional. 
This delusion has fed an unknown number of local ordinances which have criminalized plastic bags, straws, and now printed receipts.
This is bunk.
In fact not using plastic bags is more of a danger to our environment then using plastic bags..."

P&G Challenges Men to Shave Their ‘Toxic Masculinity’ in Gillette Ad - WSJ

P&G Challenges Men to Shave Their ‘Toxic Masculinity’ in Gillette Ad - WSJ
"One of the manliest brands in men’s products has hit on an unusual strategy for divided times: Questioning “toxic masculinity.”

Gillette, the Procter & Gamble Co. brand that for three decades has used the tagline, “The Best A Man Can Get,” is building a new campaign around the #MeToo movement, a risky approach that will be the latest test of how successfully big consumer brands can navigate tricky social movements.

The ad, created by the brand’s ad agency Grey and titled “We Believe,” opens with audio of news about the #MeToo movement, bullying and “toxic masculinity.”...

Is “sorta-Socialist” a sustainable model for American Governance? | Global Liberty Media - The Counter Narrative

Is “sorta-Socialist” a sustainable model for American Governance? | Global Liberty Media - The Counter Narrative:

• "Once it became okay for politicians to promise distributions to individuals from the public treasury, politicians were provided a “license” to purchase political capital with your earnings. 
• And once America’s government was allowed to pose as “provider” to some (using dollars confiscated from others), its exercise of power in this role would grow exponentially; spurred on by politicians’ expertise in converting human needs into political capital.

As has become obvious, “sorta-Socialist” is not sustainable.
It moves toward overt taking of economic and other liberty.
We’re either on our way to the fully-totalitarian control by Central Government that marks every Socialist regime, OR we’re in the process of RESTORING our Constitutional Republic.
There isn’t a middle ground..."

DOJ expert: Dems strategize to take control of elections nationwide - WND

DOJ expert: Dems strategize to take control of elections nationwide - WND:

In the bill — the text is not yet available online — there are provisions to that would enable “House Democrats, leftist groups, deep-pocketed dark money, and those who use election process rules to help win elections – or at least to cause chaos.”
“If you thought the midterm elections had problems, wait until you learn about Nancy Pelosi’s plan to terminate state control over American elections.”
The Democrats’ proposed H.R. 1 is described as an effort to “expand Americans’ access to the ballot box,” but Adams warns it’s really about centralizing elections.
“The bill is a 571-page dreamscape of wild wishes and federal mandates on states. The Constitution decentralizes power over American elections and puts states in charge. H.R. 1 would undo that,” he said.

The devil is using the Democratic Party to destroy America - WND:

While there is no perfect party or politician, God-fearing Americans are asking if the time has come to say “Sayonara” to the Democratic Party as it morphs into a European secularist and socialistic entity. It has become increasingly leftist and anti-capitalist in its pursuit of “social justice” and “income equality.” It’s not the “fringe” or a few factions that believe they must aggressively remove “outdated” policies and “unenlightened” politicians hindering those they deem as the “disadvantaged.”

Charters Top List Of Detroit’s Best Public High Schools – Michigan Capitol Confidential:

• City’s 3 best were charters
