Computer-Model Deaths, Feinstein Smears, Kerry Negotiations with Iran, Google Helping Hillary, and Woodward Writing the Script -- But the Constitution and President Trump Will Save America

AS WE START THE WEEK, AMERICA CELEBRATES CONSTITUTION DAY. This must be one of the least celebrated of all American events. And it is too bad, for America and its Republic depend on the Constitution. And, right now, the Progressive anti-Trump cabal is shredding the Constitution every day. • • • USING COMPUTER MODELS TO CALL TRUMP A LIAR. That is what the Puerto Rico fight is allabout. We all agree that when anyone dies in a hurricane, it is too many. But, the ProgDems and their propagandist media are using computer models instead of real data from those who recovered and buried the Hurricane Maria dead in Puerto Rico to give the ir version of the number of deaths. Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin -- the WP "house conservative" -- wrote that President Trump is "crazy" because he says the vast number of deaths in Puerto Rico during Hurricane Maria last year was supposedly made up. Here's what Rubin wrote : "On Thursday morning, President Trump showed once again that he lacks even a tangential relationship with reality." American Thinker's Jack Hellner pointed out that : "What is actually crazy is when an independent research firm used computer models to determine the number of deaths from the hurricane instead of the actual body count from the coroners. So do Rubin and the other WaPo Democrat stenographers ever have any actual questions about those computer models? They don't seem to, because they just repeat whatever they are told, no questions asked." Here's what the WP wrote about counting the Puerto Rico deaths : "Using a study from a team of independent researchers, officials in Puerto Rico said they're raising the official death toll from Hurricane Maria to 2,975 from 64. Researchers have determined that an estimated 2,975 people died from September 2017 through the end of February 2018. The independent study, from George Washington University's (GWU) Milken School of Public Health, was commissioned by the Puerto Rican government. The estimate of 2,975 was determined using a mathematical model based on historical patterns, with adjustments made for age and sex, researchers said. That sum is more than 4,500 percent higher than the original estimate of 64." As Hellner says, it is nonsense : "You don't determine body counts by math models. Yet people at the WaPo are so crazy that they even say Trump is complicit in causing Hurricane Florence. They need their heads examined. • Hellner then notes that the same thing has been happening with climate change for many years. Here is what hellner said about that : "The WaPo never cares about whistleblowers when their news conveyed doesn't fit its agenda, especially on climate change. Get a load of this : A key Obama administration scientist brushed aside inconvenient data that showed a slowdown in global warming in compiling an alarming 2015 report that coincided with the White House participation in the Paris Climate Conference, a whistle blower is alleging. 'In the summer of 2015, whistleblowers alerted the Committee that the Karl study was rushed to publication before underlying data issues were resolved to help influence public debate about the so-called Clean Power Plan and upcoming Paris climate conference,' Smith said in a statement. 'Since then, the Committee has attempted to obtain information that would shed further light on these allegations, but was obstructed at every turn by the previous administration's officials.' Computer models can easily be manipulated to get any result an activist lefty wants. It is clear that scientists have cooked the books (committed fraud) on global warming/climate change to push an agenda, but the crazy Rubin and her coevals don't really care about facts because they have an agenda. Essentially, when scientists didn't get the results they wanted, 'the scientists [were] trying to manipulate data through their tortuous computer programs, always to point in only the one desired direction -- to lower past temperatures and to 'adjust' recent temperatures upwards, in order to convey the impression of an accelerated warming.' " • In fact, back in 2009, the UK Telegraph wrote a long article aboutthe cooked climate change data, calling it "the worst scientific scandal of our generation." The Telegraph wrote : "James Delingpole, on his Telegraph blog, coined the term "Climategate" to describe the scandal revealed by the leaked emails from the University of East Anglia's Climatic Research Unit....Professor Philip Jones, the CRU's director, is in charge of the two key sets of data used by the IPCC to draw up its reports. Through its link to the Hadley Centre, part of the UK Met Office, which selects most of the IPCC's key scientific contributors, his global temperature record is the most important of the four sets of temperature data on which the IPCC and governments rely -- not least for their predictions that the world will warm to catastrophic levels unless trillions of dollars are spent to avert it. Dr Jones is also a key part of the closely knit group of American and British scientists responsible for promoting that picture of world temperatures conveyed by Michael Mann's "hockey stick" graph which 10 years ago turned climate history on its head by showing that, after 1,000 years of decline, global temperatures have recently shot up to their highest level in recorded history. Given star billing by the IPCC, not least for the way it appeared to eliminate the long-accepted Mediaeval Warm Period when temperatures were higher they are today, the graph became the central icon of the entire man-made global warming movement....This comes up so often (not least in the documents relating to computer data in the Harry Read Me file) that it becomes the most disturbing single element of the entire story....Our hopelessly compromised scientific establishment cannot be allowed to get away with a whitewash of what has become the greatest scientific scandal of our age." The Telegrapg article is weel worth reazding. It can be found at < https://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/columnists/christopherbooker/6679082/Climate-change-this-is-the-worst-scientific-scandal- of-our-generation.html >. • • • SENDING KERRY TO IRAN TO UNDO PRESIDENT TRUMP'S WORK. The ProgDems and their propagandist media see nothing wrong with former Secretary of State John Kerry disclosing that he has been conducting rogue diplomacy with top Iranian officials to salvage the landmark nuclear deal and to encourage the Islamic Republic to negotiate its contested missile program. The Washington Free Beacon has reported that : "Kerry, in an interview with radio host Hugh Hewitt to promote his new book, said that he has met with Iranian Former Minister Javad Zarif -- the former Secretary's onetime negotiating partner-- three or four times in recent months behind the Trump administration's back. 'I think I've seen him three or four times,' Kerry said, adding that he has been conducting sensitive diplomacy without the current administration's authorization. Kerry said he has criticized the current administration in these discussions, chiding it for not pursuing negotiations from Iran, despite the country's fevered rhetoric about the US president. Kerry's comments are in line with previous reporting on his behind-the-scenes attempts to save the nuclear deal and ensure that Iran continues receiving billions in cash windfalls. These payments were brought to a halt by the Trump administration when it abandoned the nuclear agreement and reimposed harsh sanctions on Iran that have nearly toppled its economy and sparked a popular revolution. Kerry said he met Zarif in Norway, Munich, and other international forums. As Iran continues to plot terror attacks across the globe and transport weapons to regional hotspots in Syria and Yemen, Kerry has tried to help Zarif preserve the nuclear agreement with European nations. 'What I have done is try to elicit from him what Iran might be willing to do to change the dynamic of the Middle East for the better,' Kerry said. 'How does one resolve Yemen, what do you do to try and get peace in Syria? Those are the things that really are preoccupying him because those are the impediments to Iran's ability to convince people its ready to embrace something different.'....Criticizing the current White House, Kerry lamented that 'it appears right now, as if the administration is hell-bent...to pursue a regime change strategy' in Iran that would 'bring the economy down and try to isolate further.' " • hat is mostdisturbing about all of this Kerry rogue diplomacy is that Kerry, a former Secretary of State, is taking Iran's side against his own current President. Kerry even had the temerity to warn the Trump administration, saying "the United States historically has not had a great record in regime change strategies, number one, and number two that makes it very difficult, if not impossible, for any Iranian leader to sit down and negotiate anything because they're not going to do it in a capitulatory situation." Is this one of the reasons that Iranian leaders have said often in recent months that they will not take any meetings with Trump or his administration? • The current Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, unloaded on John Kerry for actively undermining the US. BizPac Revies says that Kerry may get slapped with official charges, stating : "Secretary of State Mike Pompeo minced no words in condemning John Kerry’s 'unseemly' behavior after his meetings with Iranian diplomats. Pompeo was asked about Kerry’s 'rogue diplomacy' in a press conference at the State Department....'This is a former Secretary of State engaged with the largest state sponsor of terror,' Pompeo said, adding that Kerry’s behavior was 'unseemly and unprecedented. You can’t find precedent for this in US history, and Secretary Kerry ought not to engage in that kind of behavior,' he said. 'It’s inconsistent with what foreign policy of the United States is as directed by this president, and it is beyond inappropriate for him to be engaged.' ” Secretary Pompeo suggested that Kerry was was telling Iran to wait out this Administration. Secretary Kerry ought not to engage in that kind of behavior...."It’s beyond inappropriate.” • “Fox & Friends” guest host Katie Pavlich suggested the administration could file criminal charges against Kerry who is “essentially fraternizing with the enemy while trying to undermine current foreign policy. I think you might see the Trump administration take more official action, maybe some charges against John Kerry,” Pavlich said on Saturday. • President Trump wasted no time in addressing the Kerry rogue diplomacy, tweeting : "@realDonaldTrump. John Kerry had illegal meetings with the very hostile Iranian Regime, which can only serve to undercut our great work to the detriment of the American people. He told them to wait out the Trump Administration! Was he registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act? BAD!" • Kerry's answer to the Preisdent of the United States goes far in revealing just how roge he is and just how much the ProgDem cabal is gunning for President Trump at any cost. Kerry shot back with extremely disrespectful tweets referring to Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort who reached a plea deal on Friday to cooperate with special counsel Robert Mueller : "@JohnKerry. Mr. President, you should be more worried about Paul Manafort meeting with Robert Mueller than me meeting with Iran's FM. But if you want to learn something about the nuclear agreement that made the world safer, buy my new book, Every Day Is Extra." Kerry continued to provoke Prezsident Trump in an appearance on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher,” saying President Trump’s “got the maturity of an 8-year-old boy with the insecurity of a teenage girl. That’s just who he is.” • When Fox News host Dana Perino asked Kerry about whether he has been telling the Iranians to wait out the Trump presidency, Kerry did not deny the allegations, stating : “Everybody in the world is sitting around talking about waiting out President Trump.” AND, of course, Progressives have not called out Kerry for what basically amounts to collusion by the Democrat. Secretary Pompeo said it loud and clear : "Actively undermining US policy as a former secretary of state is literally unheard of," adding that he would leave “legal determinations to others.” • The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway gave the Kerry acts some perspective; tweeting : "@MZHemingway. I'm reminded that when Tom Cotton sent a public letter to Iran reminding them of the Senate's role in ratifying treaties according to the US Constitution, Democrats and their media allies claimed it was a criminal Logan Act violation." • We can add that both General Flynn and Attorney General Sessions have been accused by the ProgDems of violations of the Logan Act for doing far less than sitting down with America's enemy to tell its ayatollah leaders how to beat the US. AND, Kerry thinks he has a shot at the 2020 Democrat nomination. Bring him on. • • • WHAT EXACTLY WAS FEINSTEIN'S KAVANAUGH GAME PLAN? It certainly was not what American Thinker' Patricia McCarthy described on Friday : "A Judas goat is a trained goat used in general animal herding. In stockyards, a Judas goat will lead sheep to slaughter, while its own life is spared. Dianne Feinstein is a Judas goat. She, like Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, and Richard Blumenthal, to name just a few, are leading the Democratic Party over a cliff to its certain end among all civilized people. While there is a percentage of the left that strongly approves, in fact encourages the kind of despicable behavior we saw at the Kavanaugh hearings, people who are invigorated by groups like Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, and Antifa who use violence, extreme profanity, and general thuggery to call attention to their cause, most Democrats do not behave like the hired screamers who kept disrupting those hearings. But members of the more civilized left do not speak out against their tactics, either. Apparently, the Democrats running things thought all that noise and rudeness would sway a few Republicans on the committee to vote against Kavanaugh! None of them spoke out against the embarrassing nonsense. Nor did the NYT, the WaPo, CNN, MSNBC, and the other networks. Sadly, they constitute the largest group that approves of such boorish behavior. Amazingly, Ruth Bader Ginsburg finally did speak out against what she observed, but not until yesterday. She rightly called the hearings "a highly partisan show." Indeed, they were." • But, Dianne Feinstein went further. She stepped deeper into the gutter of the Swamp by announcing a "secret letter" from an "anonymous" person who has a complaint against Kavanaugh from when he was in high school. And, she sent her secret letter to the FBI, which ignored it. McCarthy wrote : "The Judas goat evidently thought it was the last-ditch bit of strategy that would take Kavanaugh down. She has had the letter since July; she's been saving it for just the right time, like NBC releasing the Access Hollywood tape a few weeks before the 2016 election. This is how the Dems play the game. And to them, it is a game. No rules, no ethical boundaries. Just win, no matter how dirty you have to play. It is this kind of skullduggery that put Trump in the White House. The American people are sick to death of these duplicitous, underhanded shenanigans." BUT, according to McCarthy : "These Democrats who believe they are so much smarter, so much cleverer than the millions of people who voted for Trump are leading their party to the slaughterhouse of political irrelevance. They are the reason there is a #WalkAway movement, why thousands of former Democrats are leaving the party. The founder of that movement, Brandon Straka, has now been banned from Facebook, that proven adjunct of the Democratic Party. For over two years, the left has used every foul trick in its book of cons to destroy Trump, to no avail. Our self-appointed betters are clueless about how the American people see them. They see them with growing contempt of the variety with which the elites have always viewed the people who live between the coasts and whose values differ from theirs. That Feinstein could even entertain the notion that her secret letter would have any impact on Kavanaugh's confirmation exemplifies her idiocy, her contempt for the Constitution and for the American people." • Did Senator Feinstein expect Ameria to rise up with her and condemn a judge hwose life has emulated goodness and reverence for the Constitution? What fools these ProgDems be...!!! Especailly Senator Kamala Harris of La LA Land, aka California. Fix This Nation labeled Senator Harris' confirmation hearing performance "grandstanding" : "Harris not only embarrassed the Senate with her show-off questioning of Kavanaugh and her attempts to disrupt the proceedings on the first day of the hearing, she outright lied to the American people. On September 7, Harris launched a thousand liberal blogs with a deceptively-edited video clip showing the Supreme Court nominee referring to contraceptives as 'abortion-inducing drugs.' 'Kavanaugh chooses his words very carefully, and this is a dog whistle for going after birth control,' Harris wrote. 'He was nominated for the purpose of taking away a woman’s constitutionally protected right to make her own health care decisions. Make no mistake -- this is about punishing women.' Harris’ original tweet went viral, attracting more than 30,000 'likes' from every leftist who thinks that Kavanaugh is the canary in the 'Handmaid’s Tale' coal mine. Even Hillary Clinton jumped into the mix, retweeting Harris’ lie and adding her own absurd commentary. But Harris’ tweet was created out of such deception that not even the liberal fact checkers at the Washington Post and PolitiFact could ignore it. The Post gave Harris its worst truthfulness rating -- Four Pinocchios -- while explaining that in Harris’ video, she cut off some very important context. See, Kavanaugh wasn’t using the term 'abortion-inducing drugs' to describe his own outlook on certain forms of contraception; he was merely describing the point-of-view expressed by the plaintiff in a 2013 court battle. 'The issue at hand is Kavanaugh’s reference to ‘abortion-inducing drugs,' wrote the Post’s fact checker. 'A plain reading of his sentence, with its reference to ‘they said,’ suggests that he is merely reflecting the plaintiffs’ argument.' This was not an innocent mistake on the part of Kamala Harris. Nor was it even a bad-faith attempt to wreck this nomination, which is almost certainly going through regardless of what kind of circus the Democrats put on. This was nothing more than a cynical show to gather social media cred and bolster her left-wing reputation for the 2020 contest. You can say the same for Cory Booker’s 'I am Spartacus' moment. The Democrats know full-well the Kavanaugh horse is out of the barn; they are merely using these televised hearings as a platform for their partisan clowning. For all the complaining they do about the harm President Trump is doing to our democratic norms, they certainly don’t have a problem twisting what should be serious, thoughtful hearings into an impromptu campaign rally." • There it is again in these villainous antics. The Constitution. It appears whenever the rabid ProgDems push socialism and its cruel abandonement of real people one step too far. The Constitution's verities point to the fact, says McCarthy, "that the Democrat Party deserves to become extinct. These people have betrayed, condemned, even, every single value that made the United States the greatest nation on the planet. With Judas goats like Feinstein, Waters, Warren, Ocasio-Cortez, Harris, Booker, etc., it should not take long. Feinstein's political career should not be spared. It should end now. Like the others mentioned above, she is as corrupt as they come." • • • AND GOOGLE DOES THE PROGDEM DIRTY WORK. Thomas Lifson, the eastute editor of American Thinkr, wrote on September 11 that : "Tucker Carlson broke an explosive story featuring internal Google documents indicating that the company made a 'silent donation' -- its own term -- to the Hillary Clinton campaign by using its information channeling might to mobilize voters it thought would cast ballots for the Democrats' candidate. The move was unsuccessful, but it illustrates the enormous power to shape elections by bringing some information to the voting public while suppressing other information. As Carlson points out, if Russian purchases of a hundred thousand bucks' worth of Facebook ads is supposed to be worrisome, the power of Google, which is the information funnel for about 90% of the public, is catastrophe once the giant decides to use its power to control elections." Lifson describes what was going on : "In essence, Eliana Murillo, Google's Multicultural Marketing department head, wrote a series of emails to Google executives, at first carefully maintaining the guise of political neutrality while discussing her (and Google's) efforts to heighten Latino turnout. But, following the shock of Trump's victory, Murillo let the mask slip and revealed the partisan intent, using the words 'silent donation' to describe her efforts. This ought to trigger a Federal Election Commission investigation and ought to be grist for legislators contemplating antitrust measures against this near monopoly in information." • Here is what Carlson Tucker revealed on his Fox News program : "An e-mail obtained exclusively by this show revealed that a senior Google employee deployed the company resources to increase voter turnout in ways she believed would help the Clinton campaign win in the last election. The e-mail came from a woman named Eliana Mario, the head of the multi cultural marketing department. She sent it one day after the presidential election. That e-mail was subsequently forwarded by two Google vice presidents to more staff members throughout the company. In her e-mail, she touts Google’s multi facetted efforts to boost Hispanic turnout. Latinos voted in record-breaking numbers especially in Florida, Nevada, and Arizona of the last of which she describes as, quote, a key state for us. She brags that the company used its power to ensure that millions of people saw certain hash tags and social media impressions with the goal of influencing their behavior during the election. Elsewhere in the e-mail, she says Google, quote, supported partners like Voto Latino to pay for rides to the polls in key states. She describes this assistance as the silent donation. She then says Google helped Voto Latino ad campaigns to promote the rides. Officially it is a nonpartisan entity but that’s a sham. It is vocally partisan. Recently the group declared that hispanics, all hispanics, are in President Trump’s, quote, crosshairs. They said they plan to respond by registering another million Hispanic voters in the next presidential cycle. Voto Latino has clear political goals, goals that Google supported in 2016. We ask both Google and Voto Latino for clarification, what did she mean by a silent donation. This is a potentially significant legal question. Neither company responded to us. At the end of her e-mail she makes it clear that Google was working to get Hillary Clinton elected. This wasn’t a get out the vote effort, whatever they say, it was not aimed at all potential voters. It wasn’t even aimed at a balanced cross section of sub-groups. Google didn’t try to get out the vote among Christian Arabs in Michigan or Persian Jews in Los Angeles -- they sometimes vote Republican. It was aimed only at one group, a group that Google cynically assumed would vote exclusively for the Democratic Party. Furthermore this mobilization effort targeted not the entire country but swing states vital to the Hillary campaign. It was not an exercise in civics, it was political consulting, an in-kind contribution to the Hillary Clinton for President campaign. In the end Google was disappointed as Mario conceded, 'ultimately after all was said and done the Latino community...completely surprised us. We never anticipated that 29% of Latinos would vote for Trump. No one did.'....Google tried to get Hillary elected, they failed this time. We reached out to Google, the company did not deny the e-mail was real or showed a clear political preference. Their only defense was the activities it described were nonpartisan or weren’t taken officially by the company. But of course they were both. Plenty of people in Google knew what was going on and we’ve seen no evidence that anyone at Google disapproved of it or tried to rein it in. Google is more powerful two years later and the left has increasingly become radical in what it’s willing to do to regain political power. What could Google be doing this election cycle to support its candidates? What can they do in 2020? A question almost nobody with a seems interested in even asking. They ought to be interested....what is interesting to me is the left has been very agitated for the past six or seven years about Citizens United and the influence of money on politics....But this is the example, the most powerful influenceer of elections potentially the world has ever known. I don’t think I’ve heard a single liberal say anything about Google’s effect on elections, subverting our democracy, why is that?" • • • ROUGH BEASTS SLOUCHING TOWARD THE WHITE HOUSE. That's what American Thinker's Clarice Feldman called them on September 9. It was a reference to Yeats's poem "The Second Coming," but Feldman said : "Events this week reminded me of the poem and this line : 'the worst are full of passionate intensity.' On the one hand, we have the most effective President in my lifetime, who has...pulled this country out of the economic doldrums, which were the direct result of the idiotic policies of his predecessor in office. US wages rose in August by the most since the recession ended in 2009 and hiring rose by more than forecast....Average hourly earnings for private workers increased 2.9% from a year earlier, a Labor Department report showed Friday, exceeding all estimates in a Bloomberg survey and the median projection for 2.7%. Nonfarm payrolls rose 201,000 from the prior month, topping the median forecast for 190,000 jobs. This is reality. The Democrats' clown show is fantasy. Fortunately, most people care more about reality than fantasy. Still, both confusing the facts and distracting people from them are tactics at which the Left excels. A Democratic Congress never would have passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. In fact, not a single Democrat voted for it. And Hillary Clinton never would have signed it. The progress the US economy has made since Donald Trump took the helm from the hapless Barack Obama is an ongoing rebuke to the Democrats' anti-growth policies. This is one reason the Democrats are so anxious to regain control over the House in November. With the House in Democrat hands, they won't be able to repeal the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, but they will be able to guarantee that no more pro-growth, pro-worker legislation will be enacted. They will focus on impeaching President Trump instead." • The "enemies" of the President have revealed they are in a political death match with the President that they've already lost, says Conrad Black in a biting article quoted by Feldman. Black outlines the September "blockbuster events" of Day One : "the confirmation hearings for Supreme Court justice-designate Brett Kavanaugh identified the Democrats implicitly with the shrieking hecklers who were evicted from the committee room --- then, the Democrats fired an instantly fizzling cannon with the inevitable Bob Woodward's customary pastiche of fabrications, unsourced misquotations, and malicious gossip....Woodward, the old sniper who never dies, on Tuesday had the distinction of being called a liar by two four-star Marine generals, John Kelly and James Mattis, both among the very few holders of high public office in living memory whose integrity could not be and never has been questioned....but this time he took one for the losing team and shot himself in the head with a howitzer. Sending him into battle to win it for the Democrats two months before the election is like dispatching a small brigade of very aged arsonists to fight one of the California summer forest fires that the new prophet of the Democrats, Bernie Sanders, says was caused by this President's opinion of climate change. --- Finally, Robert Mueller accepted written answers to questions from the President on collusion matters....This is a concession that he can't subpoena the President and has no evidence of Trump-Russia collusion and no chance of a perjury trap. The thought, expressed by many in the media, that Mueller could still hang tough on questioning of the President about obstruction of justice is, like the Democratic-media echo chamber's joyous ululations over the Woodward drivel, rubbish. That circus has flopped; strike the tents. Day One was a disaster for the Democrats." Clarice Feldman says : "The results of the Kavanaugh confirmation process were certain before the hearings began. He's a well respected jurist with a spotless reputation. Nothing has changed this, and with Senator Jon Kyl having been sworn into office by the vice president, and McConnell's assurance of confirmation, he will certainly be seated by the time the Supreme Court begins its new term on October 1. Nothing in this fiasco of a hearing has changed that. What has changed, I should think, is any serious notion that Cory Booker or Kamala Harris has a national political future after their outrageous performances this week. Booker has exposed himself as an idiot, claiming he was like Spartacus in revealing classified information which had already been declassified, and which, in any event, showed that the judge had opposed 'profiling.' " • Newt Gingrich once again said it best : "Cory Booker should study history before he tries to use it. Calling a Senate publicity stunt his 'Spartacus' moment was absurd. Spartacus was a gladiator slave who rebelled, lost, was crucified. Booker studied at Stanford, Oxford, Yale Law School. His only risk is being ridiculed." And Feldman finished the job : "Kamala Harris's unsubstantiated charge that the judge had discussed the Mueller investigation with an unnamed lawyer in a private firm at some unnamed date along with bullying the witness again demonstrates that she lacks the character and wit to hold even the senatorial seat, let alone higher office. Worse, for the Democrats, the often paid and completely outrageous effort to bully the Judiciary Committee has to drive any moderate even farther from its ranks. Latest reports say 200 people were arrested for their disruptive tactics." • • • DEAR READERS, President Trump, as American political tradition demands, is taking his case to the American people. His rallies are still drawing tens of thousands of supporters. His litany of his economic and domestic social program successes and his long list of foreign policy agenda items that America supports wholeheartedly, make him a formidable warrior in this battle for the soul of the Republic. And, despite themselves, the #NeverTrumpers in Congress are falling in line behind Mitch McConnell and his team in the Senate and behind the House Trump leadership. Here is the best example of what a dompetent House leader can do. The House Judiciary Committee under Chariman Bob Goodlatte on Thursday approved legislation to curb nationwide injunctions. If passed, the bill will require judges to write rulings that apply only to the individuals and organizations who are part of a specific case. Introduced by Chairman Goodlatte, the Injunctive Authority Clarification Act would prevent the courts from blocking the enforcement of federal policies. Goodlatte issued a statemetn saying : "The Constitution gives courts the authority to decide cases for the parties before them, not to act as super-legislators for everyone across the country based on a single case. It simply cannot be the law that opponents of government action can seek a preliminary injunction and lose in 93 of the 94 judicial districts, win one injunction in the 94th, and through that injunction obtain a stay of government action nationwide despite it being upheld everywhere else.”Attorney General Jeff Sessions has frequently spoken against overreaching injunctions and several times, he has issued new guidance to Department of Justice attorneys to argue against nationwide court orders that exceed constitutional limits. “This trend must stop,” Sessions said in a speech last month. “We have a government to run. When a court grants relief to parties not before the court, it dramatically undermines the ability of the President to carry out the will of the elected branches and the voters.” • And who are the opponents of President Trump who attempt to viciously undercut his every move. Fox News Senior Judicial Analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano aniled it when he was talking aboutthe funerla for John McCain : "As much as I appreciated the kind words about my late friend Senator John McCain and the polite reception those words received, it made me think about how dangerous to life, liberty and property the government has become, how unfaithful to the Constitution have been those in whose hands we have reposed it for safekeeping and how unashamed of their misdeeds are those who have caused all this. Nearly all of the present assaults to liberty can be laid at the feet of the Republicans and Democrats who were sitting in that government-founded church in the nation's capital and listening to the praise of John McCain." • To paraphrase General Douglas MacArthur's immortal Farewell words to the cadet corps at West Point : "Today marks my final roll call with you. I want you to know that when I cross the river, my last conscious thoughts will be of the corps...and the corps... and the corps." On every American's lips and etched into their hearts must be the words : "The Constitution...and the Constitution...and the Constitution."

  1. John Kerry seems to be suffering the same memory lapse as the (and I use the term loosely) lady accusing Judge Kavanaugh of unwanted advance advances way back in 1980 or was it 1981 or 1982, or where they really unwanted, better yet were they ‘suggested repressed memory loss” until a Physiologist or any other type of shrink planted the idea in here current memory. Most Democrats can’t ever remember any thing, and this poor innocent soul has suffered with this repressed memory until she had to tell all. She picked a letter to Sen.Feinstein all about it so the Senator could make it alright via the Judge Kavanaugh witch hunt.

    This last minute letter - wasn’t really last minute, it was given to Feinstein in early July by “someone” with senders name already redacted out.

    Please wake up America. The ProgDem, the Swampers from D.C, the Deep Staters are at work by any conceivable way to bring down the aTrump Administration and or Republic

  2. Donald Trump may well be the most effective President in this modern age. He ran on a laundry list of things he was going to accomplish, and went out on January 21, 2017 with his ‘to do’ list, an empty shopping cart and stated to fill it with accomplished promises.

    One thing happened on his way to the check out counter ...the Democratic Party made a conscience decision to move as far to the extreme socialistic left as possible. Proving that you can lead a horse to water, and the dumb animal will still not drink.

    Instead Chuck Schumer- Nancy Pelosi set out to make Hillary Clinton president at any cost. And the cost is a polarized, a fragmented, a splintered, a just deeper than ever divided United States of America. Comparing the U.S. today to pre/post 1860’s makes Reconstruction seem childishly simple.

    Looking forward there seems to be no compromise or willingness to work together for all our betterment. Only lies and baseless allegations, smear tactics, and unwillingness to save the Republic.

    Anything Republican will not be tolerated. Anything Democratic only reeks of failed policy.

    Is the only thing left a new Political Party?
