Do Democrats really care about Dreamers? No, they will do anything to score political points | Fox News:
"Democrats are threatening to shut down the federal government, refusing to pass a spending bill unless it contains a path to legal status for the so-called “Dreamers” protected under President Obama’s DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) program.
Are the Democrats really concerned with the status of these young people brought to the U.S. illegally as children, or with reforming our broken immigration system? No. They are trying to score political points."

Pentagon shifts away from terrorism threats, sets sights on Russia, China in new defense strategy - Washington Times:
"Defense Department and national security officials within the Trump administration outlined this doctrinal shift in its new National Security Strategy (NDS), released Friday. Defense Secretary James Mattis made the case for the administration’s divergence from extremist terror threats to those posed by global powers during a speech Friday in Washington.
“We face growing threats from revisionist powers as different as China and Russia. Nations that seek to create a world consistent with their authoritarian models,” Mr. Mattis said during his speech at the Johns Hopkins School for Advanced International Studies."

'Lack of regulation' leads Delta Air Lines to tighten its service animal policy - Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal:
"It's common for pet owners to game the service animal system, with websites allowing people to register any dog without proving qualifications or need online for less than $100.
Some move beyond dogs.
"Customers have attempted to fly with comfort turkeys, gliding possums known as sugar gliders, snakes, spiders and more,"
Delta said in its release. "Ignoring the true intent of existing rules governing the transport of service and support animals can be a disservice to customers who have real and documented needs.""

Governor Granholm Called to Underfund Pensions 6 Years Before Company Bankruptcy [Michigan Capitol Confidential]
Governor Granholm Called to Underfund Pensions 6 Years Before Company Bankruptcy [Michigan Capitol Confidential]:
She made this point:
"Because many of our manufacturers provide their employees with defined benefit pension plans, they are required to set aside unrealistically high reserves to meet future obligations.
This siphons off company reserves that could better be used to invest in new technologies, new plants, and advanced training for workers."
Within six years, the company would be in bankruptcy, the employee pension plan was terminated and taken over by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.
That government agency, for its part, also has an underfunding problem.
And because not enough money was set aside for Delphi retirees, pensioners took major cuts to their benefits..."

Report: 'Dreamer'-age Illegals Have Crime Rate Double Young Americans - Breitbart
Report: 'Dreamer'-age Illegals Have Crime Rate Double Young Americans - Breitbart:
"DACA-aged illegals commit crimes at twice the rate of young Americans, says a comprehensive summary of crimes and convictions in Arizona during the past 32 years.
The report punctures claims by pro-amnesty advocates that young ‘dreamer’ illegals are vital to U.S. industry and civic life, and indicate that any amnesty will ensure that many more crimes — including murders and rapes — will be inflicted against Americans and legal immigrants, including Hispanics and blacks.

BREAKING=> FACEBOOK to Start Ranking News Outlets -- Promote "Reputable" Pages to Users-"by Jim Hoft
"...During the 2016 election millions of Americans bypassed the liberal media and went to social media to learn about the candidates.
Liberals in America are working to make sure that never happens again.
Facebook announced today they will start ranking US news outlets and promote news from “reputable” outlets.
Anyone who knows how the leftist hordes operate on social media knows this is the end of conservative news on Facebook.

Landmark British study debunks UN's worst-case global-warming scenarios - Washington Times
Landmark British study debunks UN's worst-case global-warming scenarios - Washington Times:
"A groundbreaking British study throws cold water on the U.N.’s most extreme climate-change scenarios, finding little chance that the planet will heat up by 4 to 5 degrees over the next century.
The UN International Panel on Climate Change has predicted for 25 years that global temperatures are likely to increase between 1.5 and 4.5 degrees Celsius by 2100, but the latest research narrows the range to 2.2-3.4 degrees Celsius.
“Our study all but rules out very low and very high climate sensitivities, so we now know much better what we need to,” said University of Exeter professor Peter M. Cox, the lead author of the study, in a press release."

Wise answer!-----I answered this question today: "How do you expect people to support a family on minimum wage?"
Fans of Best of the Web Today:
"I answered this question today:
"I answered this question today:
"How do you expect people to support a family on minimum wage?"
1. I don't. The real minimum wage is zero.
2. Don't take on additional responsibilities until you can take care of yourself. If you are still living in your parent's basement, that's a sign you aren't ready.
3. Don't have a family until you can financially support one. My wife and I didn't even get married until both of us could support ourselves and we didn't have kids until we could afford them.
4.. Supporting a family means financial security and financial security means a steady job. The way to get out of minimum wage jobs is to get an education of vocational training in a discipline or a skill that is in demand.
5. You do not have a "right" to have a spouse, a partner or children. These are choices you make. Society does not have a responsibility to support them for you so you can live a life as comfortable as others who made better decisions.
6. Sure, success always involves some degree of luck - right time, right place, right people - but if you don't prepare yourself to accept those opportunities, that's nobody's fault but yours.
7. Sometimes you have to go where the jobs are - if there is profitable work in North Dakota, don't expect it will come to South Carolina in search of you - you have to go to it.
8. Being stuck in a minimum wage job is completely avoidable for 99.9% of people - for most it is a choice, not an inescapable reality.
