Happy Fourth: Obama In Indonesia Says Too Much Patriotism Is Bad | Daily Wire:
"Obama pushed globalism throughout his two terms as president. He entered bad trade deals, signed off on dangerous treaties, eased sanctions on dangerous dictatorships. And his Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, sought to pick up that mantle and carry it even further.
But Americans said no. They rejected the notion that the world comes first, and America second. They embraced Donald Trump's call to "make America great again" — and, frankly, they realized that America is always good, but could be better."

Flashback: U.N. Says Global Warming Will Destroy ‘Entire Nations’ … by 2000
"Climate change alarmists often talk about the dire need to solve the world’s global warming “crisis.”
If we don’t act soon, they claim, the world will face disasters unlike anything we’ve ever seen before.
“Trust us,” they say.
“This is science.
Don’t be a ‘science denier.'”
Admittedly, I once “trusted” the “consensus” that global warming is being caused by humans and will soon be catastrophic.
Over time, however, as many of the predictions made by the alarmists failed to come true, I became increasingly skeptical of their claims.
...Below is one example I recently came across that’s particularly laughable.
Enjoy."

“A senior environmental official at the United Nations, Noel Brown, says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the earth by rising sea levels if global warming is not reversed by the year 2000. Coastal flooding and crop failures would create an exodus of ‘eco-refugees,’ threatening political chaos, said Brown, director of the New York office of the U.N. Environment Program. He said governments have a 10-year window of opportunity to solve the greenhouse effect before it goes beyond human [control.]”Published on June 30, 1989, San Jose Mercury News (CA)"

Paradise Lost: San Francisco Leftists At Their Finest | Daily Wire:
"Growing up in San Francisco, I thought I was the luckiest kid in the world.
A beautiful city built right on the bay.
...The constant tax increases, in property tax, sales tax, property tax levies, and continually burdensome regulation has made it almost impossible to live and raise a family.
So, I started to look at where all the money really goes…
The City of San Francisco, a city of 870,877 people and only 49 square miles, is slated to spend $10.1 billion dollars next fiscal year, which started July 1.
You read that right: a city of less than 1 million people plans to spend over $10 billion dollars.
Let’s compare that to other California cities of even greater size:
San Francisco has less than half the size in land area and a few hundred thousand less people, yet spends over three times the amount of money per year.

For years, San Francisco has created and maintained a Homeless Industrial Complex.
One of the most expensive cities in the country literally pays for more homeless people to pour in. Non-profit organizations, many of which are paid to serve the homeless or very low income individuals, will be dividing $600 million dollars under the 2017-18 budget.

How Iran went from being an American ally to the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism – Israel Video Network:
"Iran’s nuclear ambitions are a real danger to the entire world.
Iran was a modern country that looked up to the West.
But after 1979, when radical Islamists came into power, the country became anti-Western and began to threaten global security.
Today, after the Obama administration managed to negotiate a bad deal with Iran over its nuclear development capabilities, Iran is closer than ever to building a nuclear bomb with which it will threaten the West.
Iran is responsible for the spread of Islamic terror and is directly involved in terrorist attacks around the world.
Western nations can and should stop Iran before it is too late."

Once home, Mohamud plotted to get weapons that could murder American military officers and other government employees in uniform. Mohamud was even scoping out locations for the attack, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) investigation into the plot."

"Australian academic and feminist Dr. Susan Carland recently spoke about sharia law, but not to denounce it as a sexist system of law that treats women as property but rather, to support it as an effective mechanism for promoting women’s rights.
Yes, Dr. Carland believes that sharia law can be used to persuade Muslim men that it’s wrong, for example, to stone and/or whip women who are victims of rape or for adultery.
Of course, this idea will remain theoretical since I’m not aware of any Islamic Republic in which sharia is used to champion female empowerment..."

Trump Launched An Energy Revolution While Everyone Was Obsessing On His Tweets | Stock News & Stock Market Analysis - IBD:
"...On Thursday, Trump said he was ushering in a new energy policy that marked an end to decades of fretting about an alleged "energy crisis" brought on by supposed limited domestic supplies and an insatiable demand for fossil fuels.
"We now know that was all a big, beautiful myth," Trump said in remarks at the Department of Energy.
"The truth is that we have near-limitless supplies of energy in our country."
Trump had already taken several steps toward unleashing domestic energy supplies, but he announced six more that he plans to take, including
"The golden era of American energy is now underway," he said.
If that sounds overly dramatic, it isn't.
Recent developments in drilling technology have made vast domestic supplies of oil and natural gas available for production.
That, combined with the country's abundance of coal, means the U.S. could be a net energy exporter in nine years..."

Fatal Courtroom Act Ruins Michael ‘hockey stick’ Mann | Principia Scientific International
Fatal Courtroom Act Ruins Michael ‘hockey stick’ Mann | Principia Scientific International
- "Penn State climate scientist, Michael ‘hockey stick’ Mann commits contempt of court in the ‘climate science trial of the century.’
- Prominent alarmist shockingly defies judge and refuses to surrender data for open court examination.
- Only possible outcome: Mann’s humiliation, defeat and likely criminal investigation in the U.S.
The defendant in the libel trial, the 79-year-old Canadian climatologist, Dr Tim Ball (above, right) is expected to instruct his British Columbia attorneys to trigger mandatory punitive court sanctions, including a ruling that Mann did act with criminal intent when using public funds to commit climate data fraud.
Mann’s imminent defeat is set to send shock waves worldwide within the climate science community as the outcome will be both a legal and scientific vindication of U.S. President Donald Trump’s claims that climate scare stories are a “hoax.”
Mann’s imminent defeat is set to send shock waves worldwide within the climate science community as the outcome will be both a legal and scientific vindication of U.S. President Donald Trump’s claims that climate scare stories are a “hoax.”
As can be seen from the graphs below; Mann’s cherry-picked version of science makes the Medieval Warm Period (MWP) disappear and shows a pronounced upward ‘tick’ in the late 20th century (the blade of his ‘hockey stick’).
But below that, Ball’s graph, using more reliable and widely available public data, shows a much warmer MWP, with temperatures hotter than today, and showing current temperatures well within natural variation.
But below that, Ball’s graph, using more reliable and widely available public data, shows a much warmer MWP, with temperatures hotter than today, and showing current temperatures well within natural variation.
Michael Mann, who chose to file what many consider to be a cynical SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation) libel suit in the British Columbia Supreme Court, Vancouver six long years ago, has astonished legal experts by refusing to comply with the court direction to hand over all his disputed graph’s data.
Mann’s iconic hockey stick has been relied upon by the UN’s IPCC and western governments as crucial evidence for the science of ‘man-made global warming.’..."

Do Therapy Animals Help? Not Really | Science Codex:
"Therapy animals are on trend, everyone is getting some sort of certification so they can take their pets on the plane and into restaurants, but though no one in business wants to mess with mental illness, there is not much evidence they are more than placebo.
Instead of being able to show they really do much to help, a review showed some positive short-term effects, most often found no effect and occasionally identified higher rates of distress.
...“That kind of thing has almost driven the field, and the research is playing catch-up.
In other words, people are recognizing that anecdote isn’t enough.”
Like homeopathy, this has survived hundreds of years despite no evidence it works.
Like a lot of woo, such as eating placentas and environmentalism, this had a resurgence in the "natural" movement of the 1960s."

History
By Tammy Derouin
When you step back in time by visiting
a historical site, you develop a different kind of appreciation for
what those who came before us endured. It's one thing to read about
historical events or battles, it's another to actually see the
landscape and structures or touch items and artifacts from years or
even centuries ago.
The incline to Fort Mackinac is steep
but it's worth the climb. The view is spectacular and the history is
fascinating. I've traveled to the Mackinaw Island a few times. On my
most recent journey, as usual, the fort is my first destination. It's
where I spend the most amount of time. For me, there's something
very intriguing about walking along the same path, entering rooms and
touching the same objects which were touched by so many over the
course of generations. I wonder about the conversations which took
place and the everyday challenges of a bygone era.......

"There are many discussions about the President Trump “wrestling” CNN tweet, but it’s time to get to the heart of the matter: that the tweet was brilliant, anticipating a ridiculously overwrought reaction by the legacy media, and boy, did they deliver.
It’s one thing to say the media is fake and can’t be trusted, and quite another to show it to the American people.
So consumed with their loathing of the president, some in the legacy media can’t see past themselves and did exactly what you’d expect the pathologically obsessed to do: pathologically obsess.

"America is under attack as never before—not only from terrorists but also from people who provide a justification for terrorism.
Islamic fundamentalists declare America the Great Satan. Europeans rail against American capitalism and American culture.
South American activists denounce the United States for “neocolonialism” and oppression.
Anti-Americanism from abroad would not be such a problem if Americans were united in standing up for their own country.
But in this country itself, there are those who blame America for most of the evils in the world...
Here, then, is my list of the 10 great things about America.
1. AMERICA PROVIDES AN AMAZINGLY GOOD LIFE FOR THE ORDINARY GUY...
