Mulvaney said, “I blame the people who pulled the triggers. Is someone really blaming the president? These people are sick. And until we address why people think this way. This young man —let’s be clear, we know nothing about the shooter in Dayton, we’re just talking about the shooter in El Paso. This was a sick person. You can go and read the things the person wrote, now available to the public, making the person famous.”

Mulvaney: Shootings Not Trump Fault — 'I Blame the People Who Pulled The Trigger' | Breitbart:
Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney said President Donald Trump should not be blamed for mass shootings.
Mulvaney said, “I blame the people who pulled the triggers. Is someone really blaming the president? These people are sick. And until we address why people think this way. This young man —let’s be clear, we know nothing about the shooter in Dayton, we’re just talking about the shooter in El Paso. This was a sick person.

D.C. Metro Report: 'Single, Self-Cleaning' Toilet Cost $500K to Maintain...Hasn't Flushed Since 2017 | MRCTV
"Washington D.C. is known for being completely full of crap because of the politicians that inhabit it, but this is ridiculous.
The Office of Inspector General, headed by Geoffrey Cherrington, recently came out with a semi-annual report about the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) system, known to locals as the "Metro.
...According to the report:
OI [Investigations] received a referral from OA [Audits] indicating that WMATA spent approximately $500,000 maintaining a single self-cleaning toilet located at the Huntington Metro Station..."Read all!
World Bank Study Finds That Deregulation Reduces Extreme Poverty | Craig Eyermann
World Bank Study Finds That Deregulation Reduces Extreme Poverty | Craig Eyermann
Regardless of where you might live around the world, if you live on less than $2 a day, you would be considered to be living in extreme poverty.
Regardless of where you might live around the world, if you live on less than $2 a day, you would be considered to be living in extreme poverty.
According to the World Bank, in 2015 about 736 million people around the world, or just under 10 percent of the world’s population, had incomes that put them below this international poverty line.
Believe it or not, that is extraordinarily good news because poverty rates around the world have fallen dramatically since 1981 when 42 percent of the world’s population lived on an inflation-adjusted $1.90 or less per day.
Believe it or not, that is extraordinarily good news because poverty rates around the world have fallen dramatically since 1981 when 42 percent of the world’s population lived on an inflation-adjusted $1.90 or less per day.
World Bank economists studying a portion of this decline in the nine years from 2005 through 2013, when the extreme poverty rate was cut nearly in half from 21 percent to 11 percent, have discovered that much of this reduction in global poverty came about because of deregulation, as governments around the world have been reducing the regulatory burdens they impose on their citizens..."

Climatologist: July 2019 Was Not The Warmest On Record | Climate Dispatch
"July 2019 was probably the 4th warmest of the last 41 years.
...We are now seeing news reports (e.g. CNN, BBC, Reuters) that July 2019 was the hottest month on record for global average surface air temperatures.
One would think that the very best data would be used to make this assessment.
After all, it comes from official government sources (such as NOAA, and the World Meteorological Organization [WMO]).
But current official pronouncements of global temperature records come from a fairly limited and error-prone array of thermometers which were never intended to measure global temperature trends.
The global surface thermometer network has three major problems when it comes to getting global-average temperatures...

Cruz: 'Universities are trying really hard to raise a generation of pansies'
"Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz bashed universities in a Thursday speech, saying that America’s colleges are raising a “generation of pansies” and doing a disservice to students by shielding them from “scary ideas.”
Cruz let loose on academia at Young America’s Foundation National Conservative Student Conference, telling the crowd “if you are a university administrator, the ideas that are represented in this room are terrifying.”

“There are no ‘safe spaces’ in this room,” he added.
During the question and answer session, one Binghamton University student shared with Cruz his experience of having to employ trigger warnings during college debate competitions, as well as everyone having to share their preferred gender pronouns before a competition and “gender minority” female-only debate tournaments.
“We’re all gonna die,” Cruz said jokingly, before taking a more serious jab at the practice of “trigger warnings” in general..."

Stepping Over Mueller’s Cadaver – American Greatness
Stepping Over Mueller’s Cadaver – American Greatness:
There are few hoaxes in the history of journalism as disgraceful as Russiagate, and few events underscore the media’s shame quite like its tragic, unintentionally humorous coda.
Liberals expected Robert Mueller’s testimony to be a moment of truth for Trump; but it turned out to be the only truthful moment in this soap opera. How quickly fact goes to work; in an afternoon, the number one “news” story in America for two years had completely evaporated, along with the reputation of its protagonist.

It's ALL about the money!-----The fact is that our earth has ice in its veins
The fact is that our earth has ice in its veins"Climate change is a defining issue of our time, especially for young people who are persuaded that we are doomed unless urgent action is taken on carbon emissions.
Activists, with some success, are demanding climate emergencies be declared around the world, making those demands on the basis that temperatures are at record highs, glaciers and sea ice are melting at unprecedented rates, and sea levels rising dangerously.
A cursory examination of the geological literature shows that the first two assertions are simply not true, and that rising sea levels are par for the course.
To assert that today’s temperatures are record highs is mischief-making of the highest order.
Earth has been much hotter (up to 10C hotter) for the vast majority of geological time.
...Sea levels were significantly higher than today just a very short time ago.
Sea levels were also significantly higher in the last interglacial 125,000 years ago; Florida Keys, for example, is the remains of a coral reef that grew then..."

Peter Thiel: Google sharing 'military tech' with top U.S. adversary - WND:
Google terminated the Pentagon contract after employees complained about the use of their research for defense purposes.
“How can Google use the rhetoric of ‘borderless’ benefits to justify working with the country whose ‘Great Firewall’ has imposed a border on the internet itself?” Thiel wrote, referring to China’s censorship of the internet.
“This way of thinking works only inside Google’s cosseted Northern California campus, quite distinct from the world outside,” he wrote.

Alleged leader of massive drug, sex trafficking ring arrested in Monroe after nearly 3-year manhunt:
After a nearly three-year long manhunt, the accused leader of a large human trafficking and drug ring is finally behind bars Thursday morning.
Federal agents arrested 50-year-old Darrick Bell in Monroe late yesterday.
According to Homeland Security agents, Bell ran a major human trafficking ring at the since-torn-down Victory Inn on Detroit's west side. The location was even staffed with lookouts and armed enforcers, authorities say.

Of the 27 Deadliest Mass Shooters, 26 of Them Had One Thing in Common | Mark Meckler
"Suzanne Venker’s recent opinion piece on FoxNews is very, very important, because she points out that almost all of the most recent deadly mass shooters have one thing in common: fatherlessness.
...Fatherlessness is a serious problem.
America’s boys have been under stress for decades.
It’s not toxic masculinity hurting them, it’s the fact that when they come home there are no fathers there.
Plain and simple.
Add that to a bunch of horrible cultural trends telling them that everything bad is good (gang culture, drugs, misogyny, etc.), and we’ve got a serious problem on our hands.

Venker goes on to explain that of CNN’s list of the “27 Deadliest Mass Shootings In U.S. History, only one was raised by his biological father since childhood.
“Indeed, there is a direct correlation between boys who grow up with absent fathers and boys who drop out of school, who drink, who do drugs, who become delinquent and who wind up in prison,” she writes.
“And who kill their classmates.”...

Abusing the system-----Americans Want A Shorter Leash On Emotional Support Animals On Planes
Americans Want A Shorter Leash On Emotional Support Animals On Planes"Airline pilots and flight attendants responded furiously after an emotional support dog bit an American Airlines’ flight attendant July 22, requiring five stitches.
The flight attendant union immediately called for “action in regards to setting standards for emotional support animals.”
...The complaint appears to be that: a) it is too easy to get a doctor’s note attesting to the need for a therapy animal; under the Air Carrier Access Act, airlines are forbidden from discriminating against consumers who have documented disabilities.
Getting this ESA letter is as easy as going online, filling out a questionnaire, chatting over the phone with a therapist, and then waiting for your letter; b) there are too many types of animals that are allowed; and c) the animals are not always trained to handle commercial airplane flights in the same way as service animals (e.g. guide dog for a blind person).
...However, 72% of these respondents agree that some people pretend that their pets are ESAs in order to avoid the usual pet carrier fee of $150 or more, and 46% agree that it is too easy to get a doctor’s note for an ESA..."

PRAGER: How To Tell If A Trump Supporter Is Racist | Daily Wire
PRAGER: How To Tell If A Trump Supporter Is Racist | Daily Wire:
Leftists don't only label the half of the country that supports the president "racist," they label all whites and America itself "racist." If your son or daughter attends or recently attended an American university, it is close to certain he or she was repeatedly told that America and all whites are racist. According to the left, whites are divided between those who admit they are racist and those who don't admit it.
Every conservative and many liberals know this is a big lie. The great question is: Do leftists believe it? It is impossible to know. But this we do know: If you repeat something often enough, and if your Weltanschauung (worldview) and that which gives your life meaning are dependent upon believing something, you will eventually believe it.
So here is a way to show it is a lie.
Ask any white conservative, including one who supports Trump, the following three questions:
