"Social media has been full of the Democrats talking about the Stormy Daniels affair with the joy and sniggers of three-year-olds who just discovered there’s a word for what you do on the potty.
This is predictable and not at all upsetting, because if these people had any political sophistication and understanding of history, they wouldn’t support a party that is more fully behind the full-on communism that has killed a hundred million human beings in the 20th century and bids fair to at least an attempt to continue its work in the twenty-first.
...All they’re really doing is signaling their membership in the “tribe.”
...This worries me because it tells me just how far from reality their mental processes have gone, particularly their image of us.
...the problem is that the Left believes a lot of things about us that spectacularly aren’t so.

They believe we’re all religiously conservative.
They believe we all live in small southern towns and dropped out without a high school diploma.
They believe we are all violently anti-gay, believe men should command women, are all white supremacists, etc., etc., etc.
...This illusion of the Left is necessitated by the fact they have elevated Marxist credo to a messianic religion.
They believe it as one believes revealed truth, with no doubt and no thought. (If they thought, they wouldn’t believe it.)
And in believing it, they think that, of course, anyone who opposes them must be evil.
...The Left doesn’t get the desperation, or the degree of desperation most of us feel.
Being as innocent of economics and history as a duck is of astronomy, they don’t get the grave peril the whole country stood in and still stands in.
They don’t understand that the world is not one of unicorns and rainbows.
Their pig ignorance of the world and their smug and stupid imagined superiority over the rest of us don’t allow them to know what they’re doing.
And what they’re doing is tap dancing on a powder keg and calling for more candles to properly illuminate the series."

Ocasio-Cortez And Her Chief Of Staff ‘Could Be Facing Jail Time’ If Their Control Over PAC Was Intentionally Hidden, Former FEC Commissioner Says | The Daily Caller
Ocasio-Cortez And Her Chief Of Staff ‘Could Be Facing Jail Time’ If Their Control Over PAC Was Intentionally Hidden, Former FEC Commissioner Says | The Daily Caller:
“If the facts as alleged are true, and a candidate had control over a PAC that was working to get that candidate elected, then that candidate is potentially in very big trouble and may have engaged in multiple violations of federal campaign finance law, including receiving excessive contributions,” former Republican FEC commissioner Hans von Spakovsky told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Don't listen to the naysayers — Trump's economy is booming
Don't listen to the naysayers — Trump's economy is booming:
President Trump has had seven consecutive quarters of 2 percent-plus growth — despite the Fed having raised rates eight times and trimming its balance sheet.
That growth also comes while placing tariffs on China and Europe to restructure trade for the long-term good of the US economy.
New hires are also soaring. In December and January, the US added more than 600,000 jobs in 60 days.

"Democratic Operatives Used Misleading Facebook Pages To Suppress GOP Turnout In Midterms.
Democratic operatives, led by a former Obama official, bought ads on misleading Facebook pages to suppress GOP turnout in the midterm elections.So Democrat-supporting pages, purporting to be from disgruntled conservatives but actually funded by a lefty billionaire.
The pages appear to be designed to give the impression that they were operated by disgruntled conservatives rather than Democratic operatives.
The operatives were funded by left-wing billionaire Reid Hoffman, who previously funded a “false flag” effort in the 2017 Alabama special election.

Ocasio-Cortez chief of staff Saikat Chakrabarti — a wealthy Silicon Valley entrepreneur who recently bought a $1.6 million home in Maryland — would be protected from having to follow the public disclosure laws.
The Examiner noted that a government watchdog group, the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), "said the $80,000 salary cap for Ocasio-Cortez’ senior staffers was concerning because it could be used to intentionally evade financial disclosure laws."

"Over the past few weeks I have given several descriptions of the Colorado sex ed bill, HB-1032. However, it is such a complicated and comprehensive bill it is hard to capture all that is within this legislation.

The most glaring omission is anything relating to heterosexual marriage.
"Over the past few weeks I have given several descriptions of the Colorado sex ed bill, HB-1032. However, it is such a complicated and comprehensive bill it is hard to capture all that is within this legislation.
Here is another facet to this radical bill, this time considering what is not included.
The most glaring omission is anything relating to heterosexual marriage.
The bill bends over backwards to require the instruction of other human relationships, including the entire LGBT+ spectrum and even singles out a requirement that “immigrant communities” be represented in the discussions.
However, nowhere is there anything that would indicate that “comprehensive human sexuality education” includes instruction on sexuality within the context of a heterosexual marriage.
A quick search of the reengrossed version of the bill yields not one use of the words “marriage,” “baby,” “child,” “wife,” “husband,” “man,” or “woman.”

Martina Navratilova sorry for transgender 'cheat' language as she re-enters debate - BBC Sport
"Tennis icon Martina Navratilova has apologised for using the term "cheating" when discussing whether transgender athletes should be allowed to compete in women's sport.
"Tennis icon Martina Navratilova has apologised for using the term "cheating" when discussing whether transgender athletes should be allowed to compete in women's sport.
Navratilova - one of the most successful tennis players of all time - has been criticised as "transphobic" for writing that transgender women had "unfair" physical advantages over female opponents.
On Saturday, former British swimmer Sharron Davies told BBC Sport that many current athletes "feel the same way" and that trans athletes should not compete in female events to "protect women's sport".
However, transgender cyclist Rachel McKinnon, who won a UCI Masters Track World Championship title in October, said Davies was "sharing hate speech".
Athlete Ally - a US-based organisation that campaigns for LGBT sportspeople - cut its links with Navratilova in the wake of the 62-year-old's original comments, saying they "perpetuate dangerous myths".

In a new blog published on Sunday, Navratilova said:
- She was "sorry" for using the word "cheat"
- She had been "vilified" as "transphobic" since her initial comments on the subject
- Creating further separate categories in sport for trans athletes could cause "confusion" and would be a "big mistake" in tennis
- She "stumbled into a hornet's nest" and got a "barrage of quite nasty personal attacks.

Ocasio-Cortez Has Temper Tantrum After New York Post Exposes Her As A Fraud
Ocasio-Cortez Has Temper Tantrum After New York Post Exposes Her As A Fraud
"New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had a temper tantrum after The New York Post outed her as a hypocrite.
In a scathing story this weekend The Post showed how the 29-year-old goes against everything she preaches.
But the woman who boasts of a “razor-sharp BS detector” seems to have trouble sniffing out her own.
Since declaring her candidacy in May 2017,
...She did not like the expose, which delved deeper into her hypocrisy and is a good read, and she did what she does best.
She lashed out on Twitter at The Post and its story exposing her as the fraud that she is.
...The socialist representative is a charlatan and a hypocrite and she does not like when she is exposed."
"New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had a temper tantrum after The New York Post outed her as a hypocrite.
In a scathing story this weekend The Post showed how the 29-year-old goes against everything she preaches.
- “We’re like, ‘The world is going to end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change,’” Cortez said in January, The Post reported.
- “And, like, this is the war; this is our World War II,” she said, talking more like a teenager than a Congresswoman.
- “It is basically a scientific consensus that the lives of our children are going to be very difficult” she said last week.
- “And it does lead young people to have a legitimate question: is it OK to still have children?” she said.
- She wants to have a “a full transition off fossil fuels and zero greenhouse gases” in the next decade.
- And her Green New Deal insists that we need to “totally overhaul transportation by massively expanding electric vehicle manufacturing, build charging stations everywhere, build out high-speed rail … create affordable public transit available to all, with goal to replace every combustion-engine vehicle,” The Post reported.
But the woman who boasts of a “razor-sharp BS detector” seems to have trouble sniffing out her own.
Since declaring her candidacy in May 2017,
- Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign heavily relied on those combustible-engine cars — even though a subway station was just 138 feet from her Elmhurst campaign office.
- … Her campaign embraced the friendly skies, logging 66 airline transactions costing $25,174.54 during campaign season.
- The Democratic firebrand or her staff took Amtrak far less — only 18 times — despite high-speed rail being the cornerstone of her save-the-world strategy.
- Most of the flights came after her primary win gave her superstar status and Ocasio-Cortez spent weeks jetting around the country, burning fuel to support her fellow Dems.
...She did not like the expose, which delved deeper into her hypocrisy and is a good read, and she did what she does best.
She lashed out on Twitter at The Post and its story exposing her as the fraud that she is.

"Global Warming: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration may have a boring name, but it has a very important job: It measures U.S. temperatures.
Unfortunately, it seems to be a captive of the global warming religion.
Its data are fraudulent.
What do we mean by fraudulent?
How about this: NOAA has made repeated "adjustments" to its data, for the presumed scientific reason of making the data sets more accurate.
Nothing wrong with that.
Except, all their changes point to one thing — lowering previously measured temperatures to show cooler weather in the past, and raising more recent temperatures to show warming in the recent present.
This creates a data illusion of ever-rising temperatures to match the increase in CO2 in the Earth's atmosphere since the mid-1800s, which global warming advocates say is a cause-and-effect relationship.
The more CO2, the more warming.
But the actual measured temperature record shows something different..."

The Stunning Statistical Fraud Behind The Global Warming Scare | Investor's Business Daily
The Stunning Statistical Fraud Behind The Global Warming Scare | Investor's Business Daily:
Far from legitimately "adjusting" anything, it appears they are cooking the data to show a politically correct trend toward global warming. Not by coincidence, that has been part and parcel of the government's underlying policies for the better part of two decades.
What NOAA does aren't niggling little changes, either.
As Tony Heller at the Real Climate Science web site notes, "Pre-2000 temperatures are progressively cooled, and post-2000 temperatures are warmed. This year has been a particularly spectacular episode of data tampering by NOAA, as they introduce nearly 2.5 degrees of fake warming since 1895."
So the global warming scare is basically a hoax.

"The media and the Acela corridor are fixated today on the Michael Cohen saga like a hungry kid outside a candy store, looking for a sugar rush to sate their Trump Derangement Syndrome.
But it is still rather amazing that even our ego-centric, Beltway-obsessed media is giving almost no attention to the possibility that full scale war may be about to break out between India and Pakistan.
I’m having to scour the European press, like the Irish Times, to find any reporting.
India has sent some warplanes into Pakistani-held territory around Kashmir, and it is reported that Pakistan has apparently shot down at least one Indian fighter jet.
India and Pakistan have long disputed Kashmir, but recently a Pakistani-linked militant group carried out an attack in Kashmir that killed 40 Indian soldiers.
The first Indian counterattack by air is reported to have killed 300 Pakistanis.
As everyone knows, India and Pakistan both have nuclear weapons, and it is still not widely known on the Acela corridor that India and Pakistan were close to war once in the late 1990s, and it supposedly required the strenuous interventions of Tony Blair and Bill Clinton to keep that crisis from escalating..."
