“Reverend” Al Sharpton gained his notoriety by perpetrating a hideous hoax on the public and slandered police officers with his Tawana Brawley hustle. Since then, he’s been at the forefront of every opportunity to spew racial hatred and grab tons of cash from businesses he extorts with his threats of mob action. Corey Stewart, candidate for the senate from Virginia, called him out. Continue reading

President Trump’s 1st Year in Office an ECONOMIC MIRACLE: All Time Stock Market Highs – Most Jobs in History – Highest GDP Ever
President Trump’s first year in office resulted in the greatest year in stock market history! The Dow ended up nearly 5,000 points for the year which was the highest increase in the Dow’s more than 100 year history. The Dow reached all-time new highs a record 71 times in 2017, breaking the record for the most all-time highs in a calendar year set in 1995.
At the final bell for the year the Dow closed near its highest closing amount ever at 24,719. Since last year’s election the Dow is up 35%!

Finally: Signs of a real economic recovery for the US
US GDP, for example, is now on pace to grow at an annual rate of about 3 percent for the first three full quarters of President Trump’s term. Compare that to the less than 2 percent average annual growth under President Barack Obama.
Indeed, not a single year saw 3 percent growth or more under Obama, the only president in modern history with such a sorry record. Things may finally be turning around.

Trump wishes a Happy New Year to his supporters, haters, enemies and fake news
President Trump wished Americans a Happy New Year from his Mar-a-Lago luxury resort in south Florida on Sunday, saying that his New Years wishes extended to not just his supporters but also his “enemies” and the “fake news” media.
“As our Country rapidly grows stronger and smarter, I want to wish all of my friends, supporters, enemies, haters, and even the very dishonest Fake News Media, a Happy and Healthy New Year. 2018 will be a great year for America!” Trump tweeted.
Trump pulls brakes on $13B Obama-backed rail-tunnel plan
An Obama-era plan to have the federal government finance half of a $13 billion rail tunnel project ran into a red light Friday from the Trump administration.
The original Obama-era plan called for costs to be split among New York state, New Jersey and the federal government.
But in a letter Friday, the Trump administration notified New York and New Jersey that the Obama-era deal was now “non-existent” because the states recently requested that their portions be covered by loans from the federal government — meaning Washington would supply all of the initial funding for what the Trump White House is calling “a local project.”
Trump dumps entire White House HIV/AIDS council
Months after a half-dozen members resigned in protest of the Trump administration’s position on health policies, the White House dismissed the rest through a form letter.
The notice “thanked me for my past service and said that my appointment was terminated, effective immediately,” said Patrick Sullivan, an epidemiologist at Emory University who works on HIV testing programs. He was appointed to a four-year term in May 2016.

Judge Upholds Controversial Bill Requiring Taxpayers to Fund Abortions in Illinois
The bill forces Illinois state residents to fund abortions of Medicaid recipients and state employee health insurance beneficiaries and sets no expense ceiling nor a limit on the number of abortions that Medicaid will cover.
Rauner said that the state should fund abortions because wealthy women should not have reproductive options not shared by poor women
According to Illinois House Republican Floor Leader, Peter Breen, the new law will oblige taxpayers to foot the bill for “an expected 20,000 to 30,000” abortions per year.

Former Israeli Ambassador To The US: Obama Rejected Iran Green Revolution For Nuclear Deal
US President Barack Obama chose not to support the 2009 Iranian Green Protest Movement, because he hoped to reach a deal with Iran on its nuclear weapons that he signed six years later, then-ambassador to the US and current Deputy Minister Michael Oren (Kulanu) said Monday.
Obama’s failure to help Iranian protesters has been criticized since then by Israeli officials, led by Jewish Agency chairman and former Soviet dissident Natan Sharansky, who has called it the biggest failure to help human rights in modern history
Ex-Obama State Dept. Spox: We Didn’t Support Iran Protesters in 2009 Because They Asked Us Not To
More from the woman who claimed “job opportunities” were the key to defeating ISIS.
Substitute host Dana Perino didn’t hesitate to put Harf on the hot seat, comparing Obama’s lack of support for Iranian protesters in 2009 with President Trump and VP Pence’s support for the protesters in Iran today.
Exemplifying Obama’s losing, “leading from behind,” approach to foreign policy, Harf said:
“The reason we didn’t [support the protesters] was that it was our judgment—and we were hearing from Iranians protesting on the streets that your support will not help us.”
Former Obama Advisers Tell Trump to ‘Be Quiet’ on Iran Protests
HE WAS WILLING TO LET INNOCENT PEOPLE DIE TO SAVE HIS PRECIOUS IRAN DEAL.
Former National Security Advisor Susan Rice tweeted a New York Times op-ed by former Obama aide Philip Gordon, “How Can Trump Help Iran’s Protesters? Be Quiet.” The author argues that supporting the protests, and taking steps to end the Iran nuclear deal, will only help the regime to delegitimize its internal opponents.
Iran blocking social media to ‘maintain public safety’
“Iranian authorities are blocking access to Telegram for the majority of Iranians after our public refusal to shut down … peacefully protesting channels,” Telegram CEO Pavel Durov wrote on Twitter.
Tehran claimed that social media censorship was necessary to maintain public safety.
“With a decision by the Supreme National Security Council, activities of Telegram and Instagram are temporarily limited,” according to a statement on Iranian state TV.

“Exodus in Progress?”: Mystery Aircraft Leave Iran With “No Callsign, Origin, or Destination” As Protests Rage
Last night, a large number of aircraft were spotted leaving Iran with “no callsign, origin, or destination.” Strategic Sentinel, a DC-based firm that provides “nonpartisan international relations and national security analysis,” raised the prospect that the live flight radar data may suggest an “exodus,” is in progress.

Friday Afternoon Matinee
Had a checkup today. The good news is, my pacemaker’s doing fine. The bad news is the day ain’t over. Had lunch with DW at the tres chic Taco Bell. (I have a weakness for gordita supremes.)
There is the usual cascade of items today, but there are so many videos I thought I’d post some here and leave the heady stuff for the comment section.
The Super Bowl is Sunday, in case you haven’t heard. Not decided if I’m going to post any of the hopelessly overpriced ads. The New England Patriots’ owner, Robert Kraft, the coach, Bill Bellichek, and the star quarterback, Tom Brady are all friends of the President. Brady is getting all kinds of grief and even people who hate football are certain to tune in, in the hopes of seeing him get hurt for his unforgivable behavior.
To cleanse the palate, imagine archaeologists thousands of years from now sifting through the digital rubble of our civilization in search of scant bits of cultural data — and finding this. They would probably conclude that it’s newsreel footage from an esoteric tribal war fought long ago by lunatic warrior-poets, speaking ecstatic gibberish as they slaughter each other.
Which, pretty much, yeah.
Relatedly, how many times this weekend will various media remind us that Tom Brady is palsies with the president and that that’s a doubleplusungood thing to be?

Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse found evidence that liberal protesters at the Supreme Court Tuesday were ready to protest any nominee put forward by President Donald Trump.
Trump nominated Judge Neil Gorsuch to be a Supreme Court associate justice.
Sasse found signs that read “Stop,” with Gorsuch’s name written in marker.
UC Berkeley cancels right-wing provocateur’s talk amid violent protest
“This is what tolerance looks like at UC Berkeley,” Mike Wright of Berkeley College Republicans, the group that invited Yiannopoulos to the campus, said outside the student union building as smoke bombs went off around him.

Variety Writer Calls for Protests at Oscars: ‘Our Very Perception of Reality is Up For Grabs’
Gleibermann concedes that in recent years “Oscar-night advocacy has become, more often than not, a breed of self-abrogating kitsch…conforming to what I’m tempted to call the Susan Sarandon Principle: The bigger the star, the more off-putting — and therefore ineffective — the display of high-minded compassion.”
However, to Gleiberman, protesting President Trump is not about specifically policies but because Trump lacks empathy.
RNC Highlights Democrats’ ‘Hypocrisy’ Over SCOTUS Nominee Filibuster
The new video from the RNC includes clips of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.), ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee Patrick Leahy (Vt.), and Sen. Warren. The clips come from a variety of television appearances and Senate floor speeches in which lawmakers urged their Republican colleagues to hold hearings and votes on President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee from last year, Judge Merrick Garland.
Sunday Special Edition
With a mere five days until we are liberated from the Obama reign of terror, there is still so much going on it’s a full time job keeping up with everything. There is one constant in life … that is that Democrats act like thugs when they don’t get their own way.
The left and the media (redundant) have never dealt with someone who is strong-willed, owing to no one and won’t take shit from anybody. The attacks started some time ago and will last as long as he’s president. Anything he’s for, they’re against. If it benefits people, it makes no difference.
Democrats are using the acid-tongued phony civil rights icon, John Lewis, as an excuse to skip the inauguration. Every wacko in the country is going to attempt to disrupt the ceremony, something Republicans would never dream of doing. They have manners.
Tarbaby Sharpton, the has-been race hustler made an attempt Saturday to be relevant temporarily when an MLK march turned into an anti-Trump rally.
Protesters shouted chants of ‘we will not be Trumped’ and ‘love Trumps hate.’
Thousands of Bikers for Trump Ready to Stand up to Protesters at Inauguration
The security will be unprecedented, as is warranted. If the protesters try to crash the party en masse, they will face 5,000 Bikers for Trump, who I suspect are itching to administer some ‘education’ to the snowflakes.
Bikers for Trump, a group of motorcycle enthusiasts, will likely be toeing the line with protesters, who are also expected to be at the event. “The bikers are certainly used to being outnumbered and we are prepared to form a wall of meat,” Chris Cox, the founder of the organization, told the FOX Business Network.
Growing Number Of Democrats Plan On Boycotting Inauguration
As Jan. 20 draws near, 17 Democrats have announced they’ll boycott the inauguration. Here’s a running list of who’s skipping the event.

Everybody has seen tape of Trump bitch-slapping the obnoxious gasbag from CNN, Jim Acosta. Here’s something you may not have known. It remains to be seen whether Trump eliminates the daily press briefings since they hate him and the feeling is doubtlessly mutual.
Will Trump End the Media’s White House Daily Briefing?
Who needs the daily White House briefing to communicate when you have Twitter, Facebook and Instagram? Why tussle with the networks, the New York Times and the Washington Post when you can Skype in to the local anchors in Altoona or Milwaukee or Houston? If this were actually done one can only imagine the outcry. There would be story after story attacking President Trump not to mention Press Secretary Spicer. Would it matter – or would it wind up helping Trump?

EVERY ELECTION CYCLE THEY’RE PANDERED TO BY DEMOCRATS WHO DON’T REALLY WANT THEIR VOTE, BUT COULD NOT SURVIVE WITHOUT IT.
DONALD TRUMP RECEIVES STANDING OVATION at Detroit Great Faith Ministries Church
Donald Trump ended his 14 minute speech with a Bible verse.
I’d like to conclude with a passage from First John, Chapter 4: You know it! You see most groups I speak to don’t know that. But we know. If you want we can say it together. “No one has ever seen God but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.”
Trump Tells Black Church: ‘We Need a Civil Rights Agenda for Our Time’
“For centuries, the African American church has been the conscience of our country,” Trump told the congregation as he spoke briefly during the service.
The Republican nominee said African American churches have “lifted up the soul of our nation” and led the civil rights movement.
He said he wants leaders to help heal the nation by providing “a greater platform to the black churches and church goers.”
“I will always support your church — always — and defend your right to worship,” he added. “I hope my presence here will also help your voice to reach new audiences in our country and many of these audiences desperately need your spirit and your thought.”

Trump’s AWESOME answer to the question, ‘WHO is GOD to you?’
“Well I say God is the ultimate. You know you look at this? Here we are on the Pacific Ocean. How did I ever own this? I bought it fifteen years ago. I made one of the great deals they say ever. I have no more mortgage on it as I will certify and represent to you.
‘SHUT IT DOWN’: Reuters cuts only news video feed as black pastor thanks Trump
Reuters was reportedly the only news service to be providing video coverage of Donald Trump’s visit to a Detroit church on Saturday, and a mystery voice could be overheard ordering someone to “shut down” the feed before the event had concluded.
Bishop Wayne T. Jackson was presenting Trump with a prayer shawl and two Bibles when a hushed voice off camera could be heard saying, “I’m shooting this, I don’t care what…”
Moments later, the same voice said “Shut this down?”
“Shut it, yeah,” another voice said.
“Yes, Michael. Do it.”
“Blackout.”
Just then the camera begins to shake as if it’s being moved and the feed goes black.
I WISH WITH ALL MY MIGHT THAT TRUMP WOULD HAVE A CHANCE. THE CYNIC IN ME SAYS IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.

Did Reuters “shut it down” when Obama’s, Rev. Jeremiah Wright said: “God Bless America. No, no, no, not God Bless America. God damn America” or when he said: “America’s chickens are coming home to roost.”
Did Reuters “shut it down” when Obama’s, Father Pfleger said: “America is the greatest sin against God” or when he told Chicago police union president to ‘go to hell’
Did Reuters “shut it down” when Obama’s, Mullah, Screwy Louis Farrakhan said: “The God who taught me calls the white man the skunk of the planet earth” or when he called jews ”“bloodsuckers,” or when he said: “Judaism a “gutter religion”

FOR THOSE OF YOU NOT FROM ILLINOIS, RUSH IS A FORMER BLACK PANTHER.
A YOUNG BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA RAN FOR HIS SEAT.
HE WAS WIPED OUT, BECAUSE HE WASN’T BLACK ENOUGH.
Rep. Rush, who was elected to Congress in 1992, first began paying his wife, Carolyn Rush, in 2002. More than $67,231 in payments were made to her name during this election cycle. For the 2002 and 2004 cycles, Mrs. Rush was paid $6,000 for salary and wages from Citizens for Rush, the congressman’s campaign committee.
Mrs. Rush began receiving checks for “consulting services” in 2008 on top of salary and wages as she pulled in $98,650 from the committee. This amount equated to more than a quarter of the campaign’s total operating expenditures this cycle.
Mrs. Rush’s payments increased again in 2010 to $119,400. She was paid $148,000 in 2012. She took in $66,000 in 2014.
