Folks, YOU know what racism is. And this ain't it!-----Trump to Progressive Democrats: Go Back and Fix the ‘Broken and Crime Infested Places’ They Came From

Trump to Progressive Democrats: Go Back and Fix the ‘Broken and Crime Infested Places’ They Came From...
So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly......

....and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how....

Such countries, he added, “need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough. I’m sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements!”
The tweets came after a week of tensions between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) and a group of freshman House Democrats Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.).
Omar, namely, was born in Somalia, a country that has lacked a functioning government since the late 1980s and has been mired in instability, terrorist attacks, and civil war. Over the weekend, at least 26 people died in an al-Shabaab terrorist attack and hostage situation inside a hotel in Kismayo, CBS News reported.
....it is done. These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough. I’m sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements!

Last week, Trump defended Pelosi against accusations of racism, saying Friday that “for them to call her a racist is a disgrace.”
“I think [Ocasio-Cortez] is being very disrespectful to somebody who’s been there a long time,” Trump told reporters at RealClear Politics. “I deal with Nancy Pelosi a lot and we go back and forth and it’s fine, but I think that a group of people is being very disrespectful to her. And you know what, I don’t think that Nancy can let that go on.”
See the source imagePelosi, on Sunday, responded to Trump’s tweets and defended the other Democrats. “Our diversity is our strength and our unity is our power,” she tweeted.
However, just days before, she questioned their influence in a New York Times interview.
“All these people have their public whatever and their Twitter world,” she told the Times. “But they didn’t have any following. They’re four people and that’s how many votes they got.”
Ocasio-Cortez responded, suggesting that Pelosi is racist because she attacks “elected women of color.”
“When these comments first started, I kind of thought that she was keeping the progressive flank at more of an arm’s distance in order to protect more moderate members, which I understood,” she told The Washington Post.
“But the persistent singling-out … it got to a point where it was just outright disrespectful … the explicit singling-out of newly elected women of color,” she added.

“The entire public is safer when law enforcement works together,” Albence said Sunday on Fox News, reacting to several mayors across the country who declared they would not be helping federal immigration authorities locate and apprehend illegal aliens living in their jurisdictions.

“We do know that the government has downplayed the official figures for years … The French government and media seem to be mostly complicit in their silence, perhaps because the Church and Christianity is seen as a historically powerful majority,” Ellen Fantini of the Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination Against Christians in Europe told the Daily Caller News Foundation in an email Thursday.

It's Not Really a Climate Thing: It's about Control

It's Not Really a Climate Thing: It's about Control
"Fascism, Communism, Nazism -- all gifts to the world from Europe. 
See the source imageNow it's nonsensical worries about climate change resulting in deliberately built-in inefficiencies in everything from household appliances to transportation methods.
Compared to the U.S., Europe’s love of control-down economics leaves it in the dust:
“The US GDP is five times that of Germany, seven times that of France and UK, 10 times of that of Italy, and 14 times of that of Spain in 2018.”...
Still, the control freaks of the left are determined to copy the European model and hamstring us in ways that make us easier to control.
I’ve spent a great deal more time overseas than juniors on their semester abroad in Avignon have, and I can tell you that everything from working mothers to GDP are beset by control economies. It takes forever to do the laundry in Europe. The machines may save energy and water but it leaves housewives having to spend much, much longer to get the family laundry done. So much time it takes to accomplish normal household chores that full-time working mothers are rarer there than here. 
When comparing employment statistics between the United States and the EU, we find that:
  • Women are more likely to be managers in the United States than in the EU.
  • Labor force participation for women is lower in the EU than in the United States.
  • Part-time employment among women is greater in the EU than in the United States.
The gender wage gap is larger in the EU than in the United States...

The flight was carrying 55 passengers and three crew members; the loss of all 58 on board made it the deadliest commercial airliner accident in American history at the time.[2]

College Admissions Are Rigged In Favor Of Prominent Democrats | The Daily Caller

College Admissions Are Rigged In Favor Of Prominent Democrats | The Daily Caller:
Image result for Yale University
The children of sympathetic politicians are an obvious priority for admissions officers. These children’s parents are the same politicians who funnel many billions in tax dollars to colleges and universities every year. Letting a senator’s kid into Harvard is smart business. The quid quo pro is obvious. It’s a form of unregulated lobbying. Remember the Varsity Blues scandal in California, where a group of socially anxious soccer moms tried to game college admissions? This is far more corrupt, except nobody’s going to prison for it.
So, how many Chris Cuomos get into Yale every year? We don’t really know.

New York City outage: Power restored but questions remain

The view of Manhattan's skyline during a partial blackout, from West New York, New JerseyNew York City outage: Power restored but questions remain
"Victor Davis Hanson coined “The Bloomberg Syndrome:”
It is a human trait to focus on cheap and lofty rhetoric rather than costly, earthy reality. It is a bureaucratic characteristic to rail against the trifling misdemeanor rather than address the often-dangerous felony. And it is political habit to mask one’s own failures by lecturing others on their supposed shortcomings. Ambitious elected officials often manage to do all three.

The result in these hard times is that our elected sheriffs, mayors, and governors are loudly weighing in on national and global challenges that are quite often out of their own jurisdiction, while ignoring or failing to solve the very problems that they were elected to address.
Quite simply, the next time your elected local or state official holds a press conference about global warming, the Middle East, or the national political climate, expect to experience poor county law enforcement, bad municipal services, or regional insolvency."

WALSH: 3 Helpful Tips For The Suffering Feminists Who Are Being Persecuted By Air Conditioning | Daily Wire:

Image result for flickr commons images Air Conditioner UnitEvery year around this time, as the temperatures rise and the polar ice caps melt and planetary doom inches closer, our privileged and obviously bored society erupts into a debate about air conditioning. If you are a healthy and sane person who doesn't spend much time on the internet, you might be surprised to learn that air conditioning is the subject of any sort of debate. It is, after all, an objective good — a clear improvement over the alternative, which includes sweltering temperatures, sweaty bodies, heat exhaustion, and death. Air conditioning joins the ranks of indoor plumbing and electricity as a net-positive modern invention that has made life healthier, better, and more comfortable for billions of people worldwide. You would have to be a world-class whiner to find any reason to complain about something so wondrous and useful as air conditioning.

"ICE raids in January 2016, as well as the construction of detention centers and record deportations by the Obama administration were generally met with crickets. 
As with the current round of raids and deportations, the raids 3 1/2 years ago focused on families whose asylum claims had been declined, yet continued to reside in the US."
Twitter doesn’t like these. They’re “potentially abusive.” Lol!!!
