Good luck with this.

"Gov. Signs Law Dooming California To A Quick Death:

"Jerry Brown created and signed a new law regarding online merchants and state tax collection. It was obviously targeted at Amazon and only serves Jerry Brown's personal interests and not the states.

"So now local small businesses will be able to sell much less and most likely wont be able to sell at all and many will go out of business. The ones that go out of business will fire their employees increasing unemployment and decreases revenue and income taxes for the state along with increasing welfare payments by the state. It also eliminates the brick and mortar sales tax income for the state.

"Along with a myriad of other consequences that increases all of California financial and social problems far more than the nonexistent tax revenue it will generate now that Amazon cut everyone off and refuses to pay California in the future or for past sales. Oh and did I mention this law is going to drive EBay and Paypal out of California further adding to our problems. This and much more are the reasons we need to impeach Jerry Brown now.

"So how is this good Jerry Brown? I never thought I would actually wish we could go back to a Governor like Gray Davis. Please help California become a better state and rescue us from the maniacal, self-serving man we refer to as Jerry Brown." . . .

Updated: Liberal California Now Leads All Other States In Poverty

"Liberal California now has the distinction of being the state which leads the nation in poverty. All of their big government and big spending policies haven’t helped at all.

PJ Media reports:  What’s the Matter with California?  "This just in from what was once the best state in the Union:" . . .

. . . It's a perfect racket, and one that will continue unless and until the California Republicans get their act together and begin vigorously contesting what has become a one-party state designed to enrich those at the top, beggar the middle class, and keep those on the bottom in permanent penury. . .

Victor Davis Hanson writes: 21st Century California Reverts Back to the Wild West  . . . "California is hyper-lawful and lawless, completely free and without freedom, a condition entirely predicated on one’s sense of income and dutifulness. If one picks and chooses legal compliance, claims grievance, and earns ideological sympathy on the basis of race and class, then the law is negotiable; otherwise, he is a ripe target for bureaucracies and agencies to monitor every aspect of his life—on the principle that because millions now do not pay traffic fines and income taxes, file proper and legal names, and obey bureaucratic summonses, a few thousands must to the nth degree."

What counts, character, sex, or race?

If it can be said, I personally judged Obama by his character and not his race. Unfortunately I found his character to be that of a petulant, vindictive juvenile. Examples can be happily listed on demand.  The Tunnel Dweller

CNN Wins Big Time In Trump’s Fake News Awards

Daily Caller  . . . "The awards to CNN included falsely reporting “that candidate Donald Trump and his son Donald J. Trump, Jr. had access to hacked documents from WikiLeaks,” along with editing “a video to make it appear President Trump defiantly overfed fish during a visit with the Japanese prime minister. Japanese prime minister actually led the way with the feeding.”

"The other two awards to CNN were for retracting a story about Anthony Scaramucci and reporting that “former FBI Director James Comey would dispute President Trump’s claim that he was told he is not under investigation." . . .

Trump’s ‘Fake News’ award winners are …  "The eagerly awaited “Trumpies” awards are in, with the New York Times heading the list.

"First place in President Trump’s touted awards went to the Times’ Paul Krugman, who “claimed on the day of President Trump’s historic, landslide victory that the economy would never recover,” according to the list of awards posted on the Republican National Committee website.

"ABC News placed second for Brian Ross’ error that caused a brief stock market crash, and CNN placed third, sixth, seventh and ninth.

"Trump announced in a tweet Wednesday night that the winners had been chosen.

“ 'And the FAKE NEWS winners are…,” Trump tweeted, along with a link to the results.

"But that link — promptly swamped by web traffic — connected users to the Republican National Committee website, which apparently had taken over award duties from the president." . . .

UPDATED! rump is healthy! Oh no! This can't be!

Media Meltdown After Hearing Trump Is Healthy  . . . "The flurry of questions reporters asked about President Trump’s physical examination results reveal so much about their agenda.

‘Loathsome Little Demagogue’: Tucker Rips Apart Sanctuary City Supporter [VIDEO]

Daily Caller

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson took on Democratic Chicago alderman George Cardenas Wednesday over sanctuary cities for illegal immigrants.

"The Daily Caller co-founder asked Cardenas, “Do you think, here’s the question, now let’s see if you can answer it, do you think that you have an obligation to represent American citizens first, above people who are here illegally?”

"Cardenas answered, “I represent my citizens very well, thank you, Tucker, every one that comes through that door…”

"Carlson burst into laughter and said, “Okay, so you weren’t willing to answer that question.”

"Cardenas shot back, “You want me somehow to equate that with–you want me somehow to guess, you want me to just guess, what, cause they have to be blue eyed and blonde, to be able to say, ‘okay you’re American?'”

"Carlson said, “It’s ridiculous that you would even say something like that,” as the two went back and forth.

"Tucker then dropped a bomb on Cardenas.

“ 'You know what,” Carlson said, “what a loathsome little demagogue you are to say something like that.”

“ 'What a loathsome little demagogue you are, Mr. Cardenas,” he repeated."

"Cory Booker slammed for 'mansplaining,' insulting DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen"'

Fox News

"Republicans are slamming Democratic Sen. Cory Booker for “mansplaining” to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen in a sharp and one-sided exchange Wednesday before a Senate committee.

"The New Jersey lawmaker blasted Nielsen's "silence and amnesia" after failing to get the response he sought on her recollection of statements President Trump made in a meeting last week. Booker's hostile tone prompted Republican National Committee Rapid Response Director Michael Ahrens to invoke the millennial term for males talking down to women.

“ 'Picture it," Ahrens said in a news release. "A male Republican senator spends his entire 10 minutes ‘mansplaining’ the female DHS secretary about immigration policy, throws around the term ‘conscientious stupidity,’ yells at her the only time she tries to speak, and concludes his diatribe without even asking her to respond.”

"During the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday, Nielsen said she did not recall the president describing some African and Latin American nations as “s***hole” countries.

"Booker was not satisfied." . . .

I didn't like Booker's playacting either, but please stop with the sexism angle. Judge the incident by what it was: a Democrat showing off for his constituents, hoping to create good TV. Aren't people sick yet from the use of race and sex to divide our nation? TD

Again with the Hitler stuff?

 

Thomas Lifson: Are Trump-haters giving up on Hitler comparisons?

. . . "After Republican Flake opened the door to murderous dictator comparisons, Paul Begala, the CNN commentator and former top aide and propagandist for Bill Clinton (and a veteran impeachment-fighter) jumped in, not only seconding the Stalin comparison, but adding more dictators, none of whom were named Hitler, or even Schicklgruber.

"Alex Griswold reports in the Free Beacon:

"When you compare our president, my president, to Joseph Stalin, to Rodrigo Duterte, the dictator in the Philippines, to Bashar Assad, the dictator in Syria, that's extraordinary," Begala said.

"Do you think that's a fair comparison?" host Brianna Keilar asked.

J. Marsolo: Flake out-McCains McCain by comparing President Trump to Stalin  "I thought California was bad by electing Moonbeam, Feinstein, Pelosi, and Boxer, and by giving Hillary a five-million-plus-vote margin so she could babble that she won the popular vote.  But whereas California gave us quantity, Arizona has given us "quality" in Jeff Flake, who has outdone even John McCain.

"McCain never misses an opportunity to stick a fellow Republican, starting with Ronald Reagan and now President Trump.  McCain voted against the George W. Bush tax cuts and famously gave a thumbs-down to Trump's efforts to repeal Obamacare. 

"McCain is a tough act to follow, but Jeff Flake is a worthy successor.

"Flake attacked President Trump by comparing him to Joseph Stalin, dictator of the Evil Empire, because President Trump has criticized the press in language not approved by Flake.

"Flake must believe that President Trump is the first American politician, or first American, to criticize the press . . ."

ICE plans major sweep through Northern California

Rich Terrell, a Californian, by the way.

For perspective, first see this update: California Neck Stabber Was Illegal Immigrant Deported 7 Times


Legal Insurrection  "Legal Insurrection readers may recall that in October, Governor Jerry Brown signed the “Sanctuary State” rules into law.

"The state policy is designed to prevent local police from helping the Trump administration crack down on illegal immigration. The move was celebrated as a strong #Resistance message and heralded as a successful attack in California’s #WarOnTrump.

"After the measure was signed into law, the feds promised to raid more workplaces and neighborhoods in California.

"File this story, then, under Promises Kept:" . . .

"According to the reports, the raids will target specific types of illegal immigrants:

The operation would go after people who have been identified as targets for deportation, including those who have been served with final deportation orders and those with criminal histories, the source said. The number could tick up if officers come across other undocumented immigrants in the course of their actions and make what are known as collateral arrests.

The sweep would represent the first large-scale effort to target the region since Gov. Jerry Brown in October signed legislation enacting a statewide sanctuary law. Supporters say the law allows undocumented immigrants to cooperate with local police and seek education, health care and other public services without worrying they will expose themselves to possible deportation.

"The response from California’s progressives is as calm and rational as you would expect:" . . .

Warning: Don't count on Brown's bullet train to flee the cops.
