Illinois Democrat Apologizes After Fundraiser Includes Mock Assassination Of Trump | The Daily Caller:
An Illinois state senator from the Chicago area was forced to apologize after a weekend fundraiser included a mock assassination of President Donald Trump.
Martin Sandoval held the $250-minimum-donation event Friday at the Klein Creek Golf Club, and at first, things appeared to be going well. A number of supporters came out to the event in costume — mainly Marvel Comics Universe superheroes like Captain America, according to local CBS affiliate WCIA.

Kurt Schlichter--Ignorant Liberals Need To Go Visit America
"...My recent travels through parts of the country that aren’t populated and controlled almost exclusively by liberal nimrods gave me some hope for the future.
America as a whole does not appear eager to become Scat Francisco.
The problem is the people who want to transform our entire country into a socialist open sewer know nothing of this country outside their reeking pinko enclaves.
...Locked up in their largely child-free urban playgrounds, our garbage elite is utterly unaware of the real America and of real Americans themselves.
And it is dangerously unaware of – even actively hostile to – our true history.
There are lessons there they need to learn as they continue to bully and provoke the mass of Americans who just wish to be left alone.
Anyone who causally suggests confiscating millions of weapons from millions of American patriots and who has not walked through Lexington and Concord is a fool.And, sadly, our blue elite is full of fools."
"For a look at what happens if the left wins, check out my action-packed yet hilarious novels about the United States’ split into red and blue countries, People's Republic, Indian Country and Wildfire.
The Never Trump losers tried to label them “Appalling” for refusing to submit to the liberal narrative in return for pats on the head, so you know they’re good." (I've read them all, excellent!!)

We've been setting our thermostat wrong all this time, and people are freaking out | MLive.com"Wait, what?
We've been setting our thermostats wrong during summer all this time?
Apparently so says the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Energy Star.
Believe it or not, Energy Star recommends you set your AC at 78 degrees when you're home to save money and energy.
When you're sleeping, you should set the AC at 82 degrees and even four degrees warmer if you're using a ceiling fan.
You should set it at 85 while you're gone.
These recommended settings have a lot of people in shock.
Here's some of their reactions."

Limbaugh commented Monday: “That’s the New York Times rewriting the founding of America and rewriting American history. It’s another hoax! The Russia hoax bombed out. The Covington kids hoax bombed out. They’ve tried a number of different hoaxes to get rid of Trump, and they have all blown up, and they are at their wits’ end. They are unable to harness any kind of sanity, folks. I think this hatred of Trump has rendered them poisoned.
“Stop and put yourself in their shoes,” he suggested. “These are the people that are able to get rid of any politician or any public figure they want at any time, including presidents. They are able to destroy the credibility of people. They’re able to ruin administrations. They are able to, in the case of Nixon, actually get rid of one. But the point is in their minds they set their sights on somebody and they’re able to take ’em out.”

Portland Police: 'We Wish There Were Some Kind Of Organized, Armed Force That Could Fight Back Against Antifa' | The Babylon Bee:
PORTLAND, OR—In a press release earlier this week, Portland police chief Danielle Outlaw (her actual name), appearing somber and exhausted, said she just wishes there were some kind of group with the firepower and authority to fight back against Antifa.
In a candid moment, Outlaw (seriously, her actual name) said there was just nothing the police could do, as they'd need to have some kind of organized, armed force specifically created to protect and serve the people.
"Like, what if we took money from everyone to fund a force that could then defend them in a time of need?" she pondered aloud.
"They could have patrol cars, firearms, and attack dogs.
Maybe even some tanks.
That would be so frickin' rad.
They could have a badge to show their authority.
Then, when a rogue group like Antifa shows up to take over our city every weekend, they could be repelled using force if necessary."
"I know it sounds crazy, but a girl can dream, right?" she added wistfully.
Sadly, there is no such force in Portland, so citizens have been forced to turn to an even crazier idea: taking responsibility for their own safety and well-being, and maybe even buying a gun to protect themselves."

Proposed California Curriculum Riddled With Anti-Police Rhetoric, Anti-Israel Bias | The Daily Caller
Proposed California Curriculum Riddled With Anti-Police Rhetoric, Anti-Israel Bias | The Daily Caller:
A proposed California schools curriculum includes anti-Israel programming and also aims to teach students a one-sided view of police officers and police brutality.
The Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum, proposed by the California Department of Education, includes anti-Israel bias and aims to teach students about the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement, a Palestinian-led anti-Israel initiative. The curriculum also has students study issues of police brutality and asks teachers to find incidents of bias by police in their own communities.

"MT on the Chinese housing bubble: Random thoughts on China housing.
On several other occasions I would stare at a high rise being built and try to envision someone buying a flat on the 27th floor knowing that it was just a rough out sans plumbing and appliances and after a month the elevators would likely stop working.
"MT on the Chinese housing bubble: Random thoughts on China housing.
When I saw the Ordos ghost city for the first time, I knew there was some batshit crazy process that had infected their psyches.
Almost a cargo cult mimicking of our real estate development without any sense of the idea that you build for a customer base that’s anxious and ready to buy what you are making.
There was no there there.

Where’s the payback in that?
In Beijing and I’m sure many other places they would go into a neighborhood of ancient brick hovels occupied for a millennium by peasants and clear it out like the razed neighborhoods in Detroit.
Where did those people move?
I think there was such a complete disconnect with everyone that they just imagined that they would magically move into the high rises.
And finally, I think someone here posted a link maybe a couple years ago of a couple of guys who were going around making videos of some of these developments and showing stuff like faux brick veneers sloughing off the exteriors before they were even finished.
So cargo cult financing begats cargo cult communities?
Looks like turtles all the way down."
Renewable energy is a blackout risk, warns National Grid after chaos during biggest outage in a decade | Watts Up With That?
- Company has downplayed the role of wind energy in the power cut
- In April a study warned renewable power sources could risk network’s ‘stability’
- Half UK’s power generated from wind at one point on the day the power failed
The company, which is responsible for keeping the lights on, has downplayed the role of wind energy in the power cut that caused widespread chaos earlier this month.
National Grid had evidence that the shift to renewable energy was putting Britain’s electricity supply at risk months before the biggest blackout in a decade, The Mail on Sunday can reveal..."

Democratic New Mexico Rep. Deb Haaland described Antifa as “peaceful protesters” Saturday, the same day members of the violent group clashed with the right-wing Proud Boys in Portland.
Haaland offered the inaccurate description on CNN after President Donald Trump tweeted “Major consideration is being given to naming ANTIFA an “ORGANIZATION OF TERROR.'”
Ride Sharing Adds to the Crush of Traffic at Airports - AfricansLive
Ride Sharing Adds to the Crush of Traffic at Airports - AfricansLive"Been at an airport lately?
Then you’ve surely been in a backup on the roadways or had to jockey for a place in front of the terminal to pick up or drop off a traveler.
It is not your imagination: Traffic at the airports — even before you get inside — has gotten worse.
The cause is not just the record number of travelers.
It’s also the shift to ride sharing.
One frequent business traveler says her own experience bears this out.
“Airports were planned for taxi lines, not this other large vehicle transportation mode,” said Tanvi Gandham, a management consultant..."

French Scientists Decipher Trees Hidden Intelligence
"Scientists in France have unraveled the hidden intelligence in plants.
At the French National Institute for Agricultural Research in Clermont Ferrand the researchers experiment with a ball of light and a plant.
...According to the scientists the experiment shows that plants and trees not only grow in a straight line because of the earth’s attraction.
...Other studies further demonstrate that trees are able to perceive sounds and smells distinguish their neighbours and communicate with them thanks to a series of sensors."

"If you want to see a bunch of hypocritical leftists squirming with embarrassment, there’s a very clever video showing what happens when a bunch of pro-tax hike millionaires are asked to voluntarily pay more money to the IRS.
"If you want to see a bunch of hypocritical leftists squirming with embarrassment, there’s a very clever video showing what happens when a bunch of pro-tax hike millionaires are asked to voluntarily pay more money to the IRS.
I’ve even debated some of these rich, pro-tax statists on TV, telling them not to make the rest of us victims of their neurotic guilt feelings.
They definitely don’t put their money where their mouths are. There is an official government webpage where people can voluntary send extra cash to Washington, but the amount of money raiseddoesn’t even qualify as an asterisk in the federal budget.
You probably won’t be surprised to learn that people elsewhere in the world also are not keen on the idea of deliberately giving politicians extra money to spend..."

"“Toxic masculinity” has become a buzzword of sorts in media and culture alike.
But in Pennsylvania, Gettysburg College is taking the issue to a whole new level, the College Fix reports.
Students at Gettysburg college who identify as male are now required to watch a documentary entitled “The Mask You Live In,” directed by feminist Jennifer Siebel Newsom.
As seen in the documentary’s trailer (see below), the video’s main premise is that the three most destructive words a boy can hear are “be a man.”..."

“As a society, we cannot afford to allow pastors to be arrested and jailed for attending a public event at which they are deemed to be non-supportive of a particular ideology,” he said.
Yaghtin did not consider himself a protester, but police ordered him to stay away and cross the street where protesters had gathered, the Pacific Justice said.
