Illinois Liberals Destroy Home Values to Fund Union Pensions - The Rush Limbaugh Show
Illinois Liberals Destroy Home Values to Fund Union Pensions - The Rush Limbaugh Show:
"“A speaker from the Chicago Fed proposed levying, across the state and in addition to current property taxes, a special property assessment they estimate would be about 1% of actual property value each year for 30 years.
“Homeowners with houses worth $250,000 would pay an additional $2,500 per year in property taxes, those with homes worth $500,000 would pay an additional $5,000, and those with homes worth $1 million would pay an additional $10,000,” a year for 30 years, on top of existing taxes.
Furthermore, you would not be able to escape this by selling your house and leaving. You know why? You’re not gonna be able to sell your house. Nobody’s gonna buy your house in Chicago with this kind of taxation on it."

"A British police officer has had a go at the establishment opening up about no-go Zones in the UK he has said: ‘There Are Areas We Have To Ask Muslim Leaders’ Permission To Patrol’
The Daily Mail Reported that a Lancashire Police officer has admitted: “There are Muslim areas of Preston that, if we wish to patrol, we have to contact local Muslim community leaders to get their permission”.
Another officer from Yorkshire in the North of England, wrote on an online Police web forum: “I’m not allowed to travel in half blues [uniform] to work anymore IN MY OWN CAR as we’re ‘All at risk of attack” – yet as soon as someone points out the obvious it’s ‘divisive. In this instance he [Trump] isn’t wrong. Our political leaders are best either ill-informed or simply being disingenuous.”

“He’s pointed out something that is plainly obvious, something which I think we aren’t as a nation willing to own up to – do you think a US Police Department would ban officers from wearing their uniforms under jackets etc due to FEAR of their cops being killed by extremists?”...

When the Left bleat about "income equality
When the Left bleat about "income equality...
"When the Left bleat about "income equality" what they really mean is state sanctioned theft of the money of those they don't like.
Bernie Sanders routinely demonises corporations and those that run them as immoral.

As stealers of the wealth of society.
However, that outrage is entirely selective, progressive corporate entities like Beyoncé or Bruce Springsteen who put all their earnings into a production company, in order to avoid paying tax on their income.............well Bernie is just fine with that.

Ben Shapiro: Why Jerusalem Matters — The Patriot Post
Ben Shapiro: Why Jerusalem Matters — The Patriot Post:
"This week, the Trump administration inaugurated the new American embassy in Jerusalem.
The celebration in Israel was palpable; the embassy move came amidst the national celebration of the 70th anniversary of the creation of the state.
The streets filled with Jews of all sorts, cheering and dancing.
Meanwhile, on the Gaza border, Hamas broadened its monthlong campaign to break down the Israel border, staging border “protests” attended by thousands — including terrorists who have used the supposed protests as a staging point for violent attacks on Israeli troops and territory.
...What drives the leftist press’s coverage?
Simply put, antipathy to the West.
Israel is seen as an outpost of colonialism by leftists, and has been since the 1967 war.
Then-President Barack Obama expressed the view well in his 2009 speech in Cairo...
...If Israel exists because Jewish connection preexisted everything else, then Israel isn’t a new outpost of the West; it’s the oldest center of the West.
That’s why Trump’s announcement is important: It’s a recognition that the West was founded on Jerusalem, rather than the other way around..."

LIBERTY REVIEW
LIBERTY REVIEW:
https://libertyreview76.blogspot.com/2018/05/may16-2018-one-waystreet-bytammy.html
Sadly,
we have entered a time in our history where individualism is under
attack by the political Left. The Democratic Party tries to come
across as the guardians of individualism. So why is it that they
attack and belittle those who think for themselves or who see life
differently? It turns out that it's a one-way street. The party
which supposedly champions differences will declare war on you and
will try to destroy you if you step outside of their political box of
enslavement.

As
Americans we enjoy the wonderful blessings of freedom. We have the
freedom to speak, think, believe and live as we choose as long as it
doesn't infringe on the rights of others. As Americans we have the
right to be individuals.
As
I observe the behavior on the Left, one thing has become
transparently clear. And to be clear, I'm talking about the
dictionary definition of transparent, not the Obama muddy waters
definition. Hostility and hate toward our fellow countrymen have
exploded over the past eight plus years......

University stops professor from giving women better grades for being women - The College Fix
University stops professor from giving women better grades for being women - The College Fix
"The University of Akron has put its foot down against a professor who planned to raise the grades of female students so they would stay in his field of information sciences.
After The College Fix quoted an email to students from Liping Liu, an administrator told The Fix that the business and management professor’s gender-based approach was “unacceptable” and that no grades have been artificially raised.
Liu admitted to The Fix that his plan could be “questionable,” but said he wanted to “test the water” to see if this approach could “attract female students into future classes” and help correct chronic gender imbalances in his field.
...The professor informed students that he had sent their final grades to the registrar, and that three “categories” of students “may see their grade raised one level or two.”
Females would get grade raises as part of a “national movement to encourage female students to go [in]to information sciences.”

BOZELL & GRAHAM: California Demands That Christians 'Evolve' | Daily Wire:
"California has a hallowed but questionable reputation as being the birthplace of the radical Free Speech Movement on the University of California, Berkeley campus. Today, they're not just shutting down conservative speakers on the campus. The state's Democrats may pass a law to shut down religious speech and create a statewide LGBT "safe space."
There's a new legislative proposal banning all conversion therapy as a fraudulent business practice — by not just mental health providers but anyone. "

"The Supreme Court has opened the floodgates to sports betting by overturning a federal law restricting legal betting on games.
More than a dozen states are likely to join New Jersey, which brought the suit challenging the1992 federal law, in instituting legalized betting on the NFL, NBA, and other leagues.
Other states, under pressure to balance their budgets without raising taxes, will surely follow.
Don’t bet, however, that this is good news for taxpayers.
Since states began instituting lotteries six decades ago, legalized gambling has spread throughout the United States.
Advocates have often touted gambling as a magic bullet to generate revenues, but it hasn’t delivered. And there’s plenty of evidence that it does harm—to people and to the greater economy..."
