Oregon Gov. Brown under pressure to veto sanctuary-state bill after high-profile arrest - Washington Times:

"“Under no circumstances should an alleged sex-offending criminal illegal alien get off scot free from their heinous crimes,” Senate Minority Whip Dennis Linthicum said in a statement. “This is why we have rules, laws and the legislature … these institutions protect people.”
He said that sanctuary states like Oregon “excuse lawless behavior and perpetuate criminal, rape and gang cultures. Every Oregonian should be outraged to see criminals let loose into the streets. Career Democrats shouldn’t sacrifice Oregonians’ safety on the altar of their extreme political agenda.”"

"ROSEVILLE, Mich. – Parents are raging after a Detroit area school district sent a packet to parents that lists the U.S. flag among items banned by the school dress code.

“A student’s dress should not interfere with the learning environment,” Roseville Community School officials wrote. “The following are prohibited:”
The items include the typical slippers and sagging pants, spaghetti straps and bare midriff tops, but between “Hats or head gear” and “Low cut shirts,” the letter lists “U.S. Flag.”

Parents and others raged on Facebook Thursday..."

Retired generals, admirals thank President Trump for banning transgender troops - Washington Times

Retired generals, admirals thank President Trump for banning transgender troops - Washington Times:

"More than a dozen retired generals and admirals have signed a letter to President Trump thanking him for his announced policy to ban transgender people from the armed forces.
“We write today to express our gratitude to you for making the extremely courageous decision to reverse President Obama’s transgender social experiment,” the conservative retired flag officers wrote. “There may be an enormous amount of vitriol directed at you for making this policy correction, but please know that overturning this policy may have done more in the long-term to save the culture and war-fighting capacity of the U.S. military than perhaps any other military policy you will adopt as president.”"

Crabber Says Sea Level Same Since 1970 | The Daily Caller

Crabber Says Sea Level Same Since 1970 | The Daily Caller:
"Al Gore was challenged on climate science Tuesday night when the mayor of Tangier Island, a community threatened by coastal erosion, told the environmentalist film producer he hadn’t seen the sea level change since he began his first career as a commercial crabber in 1970.
Gore was taking questions from the audience at a CNN town hall with Anderson Cooper when the fisherman and Tangier Island mayor James Eskridge refuted Gore’s assertion that rising sea levels were endangering coastal communities.
“I’m a commercial crabber and I’ve been working the Chesapeake Bay for 50+ years.
I have a crab house business out on the water and the water level is the same as it was when the place was built in 1970,” Eskridge said.
“I’m not a scientist, but I am a keen observer and if sea level rises are occurring, why am I not seeing signs of it?”
Eskridge went on to say that erosion was slowly eating away at the island, but it was a natural force caused by “wave action [and] storms.”
“Have [the storms] increased any?” Gore asked.
“Not really,” Tangier’s mayor responded..."

Sorry: Trump’s excesses don’t normalize Obama’s | New York Post

Sorry: Trump’s excesses don’t normalize Obama’s | New York Post: 
"Last week, President Trump tweeted that the US government “will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the US military.” 
The tweet caused a predictable uproar.
Liberal politicians and organizations tripped over themselves to condemn the move.
What’s interesting about it, though, is the total silence about transgender people serving in our military during Barack Obama’s presidency. 
It actually wasn’t until July 2016, just last year and a full 7 ¹/₂ years into the administration, that transgender people were allowed to serve openly. 
Where was the outrage? 
Where was Elizabeth Warren calling it “shameful” or the Southern Poverty Law Center calling the policy “disgraceful”?
But pointing out hypocrisy like this is frowned up these days as some kind of anti-anti-Trumpism or so-called “whataboutism.”
“Whataboutism” was a classic Soviet deflection mechanism. 
Sure, we have no bread, but have you seen how racist America is?
...Obama supporters are so invested in preserving the fiction that his presidency was “scandal-free” and cool under fire that their lack of introspection only serves to weaken their attacks on Trump. Whataboutism isn’t propaganda; critics are merely trying to hold Obama accountable.
...When Trump spoke to the Boy Scouts last week, many were shocked by his partsian speech. 
Yet a few years ago when Vice President Joe Biden spoke to fifth graders at Oaksted Elementary School and peppered his speech with comments on the “God awful recession,” “third party validators” and “upside down mortgages,” few in the media paid attention. 
In fact, the visit was covered as any other staid stop a veep would make. 
Where were the cries of inappropriateness?..."

Delingpole: Australia's Bureau of Meteorology Caught Erasing Record Low Temperatures

Delingpole: Australia's Bureau of Meteorology Caught Erasing Record Low Temperatures:

"The official record must be accurate and trusted. Otherwise, claims of historic extremes — the hottest winter day! — only mislead and public policy gets corrupted. Even if the bureau does have all the answers, it needs to do a better job of taking the public — sceptics included — into its confidence.

The same is true, of course, in the US where organizations like NASA and NOAA  have also been caught red-handed making adjustments to their own temperature data sets, none of these convincingly explained.

But this scandal is not as widely known as it should be, largely because it goes virtually unreported in the liberal-dominated mainstream media. This partly explains the huge discrepancy between the way liberals think about climate change and the way conservatives do. According to this survey, liberals in both the U.S and the UK are dramatically more worried about climate change than conservatives.

Perhaps this is because conservatives are simply better informed."

Top 10 Reasons Why the National Debt Matters

Top 10 Reasons Why the National Debt Matters
"Here are the top ten reasons why fiscal and economic issues should be at the forefront of the 2017 policy conversation.

1. Deficits will grow significantly in coming years. CBO projects that the budget deficit will climb from $559 billion in 2017 to $1.4 trillion in 2027, resulting in a cumulative 10-year deficit of $9.4 trillion.


2. Interest costs are growing rapidly. Interest costs are projected to climb to $768 billion by 2027 and total $5.2 trillion over the next 10 years. In just over a decade, interest will become the third largest category of the budget. With our many important budget priorities, none of us wants interest to become the third largest government “program.”

Wasserman Schultz Can't Blame Racism For Her Growing IT Scandal | Stock News & Stock Market Analysis - IBD

Wasserman Schultz Can't Blame Racism For Her Growing IT Scandal | Stock News & Stock Market Analysis - IBD:

"Awan's brother Abid, for example, ran a car dealership while he was supposedly working full-time for Congress. The Daily Caller, the only news site that has been pursuing this story, found that some of these appeared to be "no show" jobs.

Imran and Abid both had run-ins with the law, including public drunkenness and accusations of insurance fraud. Yet Democrats in the House gave them wide-ranging access to their emails and other potentially sensitive information. Why?

Then there's Schultz's actions after the family came under investigation. She tried to force the Capitol Police to return a laptop that Awan had stolen, threatening "consequences" if they didn't. Until recently, she impeded their ability to search it. She kept him on the payroll even though he couldn't perform his job. She's been avoiding reporters. Why?

Even now, Schultz and her fellow Democrats don't appear to have any interest in finding out what exactly Awan and Co. were up to."

John Kelly Pushed Obama's Jihad Policy Chief Out of DHS - Breitbart

John Kelly Pushed Obama's Jihad Policy Chief Out of DHS - Breitbart:

"The holdover official responsible for implementing former President Barack Obama’s failed “Countering Violent Extremism” policy at the Department of Homeland Security finally resigned just before DHS Secretary John Kelly departed for the White House.
George Selim headed the now-defunct CVE program which tried to offer federal support and legal autonomy to Islamic political groups if they redirected Islamic immigrants and youths away from Islamic militancy and jihad. His resignation spotlighted Kelly’s decision to replace Obama’s failed policy with more direct government involvement in Islamic communities. Kelly may use his new White House job to make his anti-jihad strategy a government-wide policy."

Germany’s Green Energy Fiasco Leads To Dependence On Russian Gas | The Global Warming Policy Forum (GWPF)

Germany’s Green Energy Fiasco Leads To Dependence On Russian Gas | The Global Warming Policy Forum (GWPF):
"As a direct result of Germany’s climate and green energy policies, it has become Europe’s biggest importer of Russian gas. 
Germany’s dependence on Russian gas is only going to increase in coming years.

...Not far from the Hanseatic town of Greifswald — an area Merkel represents in parliament — the chancellor wants a $10 billion pipeline expansion built to increase the amount of Russian natural gas imported from Siberia, more than 3,000 kilometers (1,864 miles) away.

The project, led by Russia’s state-run Gazprom PJSC, is intended to bolster German confidence that it has enough gas to underpin an unprecedented transition from the coal and nuclear plants, which are being closed, to a future dominated by renewable energy.
...European allies have also objected — worried that the project will deepen Europe’s reliance on supplies from an increasingly antagonistic Russia — and U.S. lawmakers have proposed stiffer sanctions on energy companies that do business with Russia.
...Already Europe’s biggest gas user, Germany gets about 40 percent of what it consumes from Russia...
...“We need gas supplies when coal isn’t used anymore,” said Klaus-Peter Trapp, a 57 year-old cabinet maker from Greifswald. 
“This can have consequences if Russia and Germany don’t get along well anymore.”

Steve Russo - I saw this Ad (on the left) at a bus stop in front...
"I saw this Ad (on the left) at a bus stop in front of the 7-11 I hit every morning in North Hollywood from the tax payer subsidized Ad Council. 
Yes, that's reality. 
A Saudi raising an American flag, on his front lawn in Mayberry USA. 
Yes, that's something we all see everyday. 
The truth is, if a Saudi is living in America, he won't be raising an American flag, he would be raising a Saudi flag. 
And his daughter would be wearing a burqa because exposing her skin in public, while shaking her hips with a Hula Hoop, would be a disgrace to her family and could get her honor killed.
So I fixed the picture (see the one on the right) for the Ad Council. 
I won't charge you for it.
After all, the goal of the Ad Council (besides pushing an overwhelming amount of leftist causes) is... "The Ad Council endeavors to improve the lives of all Americans through public service advertising..."
And what better way to inform and improve the lives of all Americans by showing the public of how Islam could get you killed and how Islam doesn't recognize American laws or our flag or heritage.

[VIDEO] #TalkAboutBias: Procter & Gamble’s Ploy for Toilet Paper Justice – Flyover Culture

George Whipple, oh how we miss you.

...In a new Procter & Gamble ad called “The Talk,” ominous music and fearful black mothers warn their kids about the evils that await them OUT THERE, from racial epithets to the institutional “privilege” of white people. 

One mom kvetches to her daughter that she needs to “work twice as hard and be twice as smart” whereas another darkly says, “when you get pulled over (by police), it’s not about you getting a ticket, this is about you not coming home.” 

You know, because black lives matter, at least when it comes to blood-thirsty cops.

The two-minute anti-white, cop-hating screed ends with a scrolling text:

“Let’s all talk about ‘the talk.’
So we can end the need to have it. 
P&G: My black is beautiful.
It’s time for everyone to #talkaboutbias.

In a crass marketing ploy to grab “buzz” and make Bounty great again, P&G has kicked Mr. Whipple to the curb and with him millions of Americans who want nothing more than squeezably soft toilet paper. 
That the company has chosen to slander their customers based on their race and profession is a load of crap that even Charmin can’t clean up."

"Now it looks as though YouTube, which is owned by Google, will also look to rig its search results, leaving free speech advocates concerned over the reality-shaping leftist scam completely inundating the internet as we know it.

“According to a post on YouTube’s official blog, videos will now be subject to the rule of the mob. If enough users flag a video as ‘hate speech’ or ‘violent extremism,’ YouTube may impose restrictions on the content even if it breaks none of the platform’s rules."
