Perfect Life "Black and white photos often make events and moments in recent history feel older than they really are. As a result, we usually don’t relate to them as we do with a photo that is in color. So what happens when you take old black and white photographs, and colorize them? Take a look at these photographs and see if you feel any different about them…"

WATCH: Sarah Sanders Destroys Philadelphia Eagles Over ‘Political Stunt’
Daily Wire White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders slammed the Philadelphia Eagles during Tuesday's press briefing, accusing the team of engaging in a "political stunt."
"During the briefing, ABC News’ Jon Karl asked if President Donald Trump was aware that not a single player from the Eagles team had taken a knee during the national anthem all season long.
""There were 80 members of the Eagles' organization that RSVPd and committed to attend this event as recently as Friday as well as over 1,000 fans of the Eagles' organization," Sanders said. "The Eagles, are the ones that tried to change their commitment at the 11th hour and the president frankly thinks that the fans deserve better than that and therefore we changed the ceremony to be a focus on celebrating our great country."
"Karl persisted in obnoxious fashion, interrupting another reporter that Sanders had called on, suggesting to Sanders that something bigger was going on as Lebron James and Stephon Curry have indicated their NBA teams will also not travel to the White House.
" 'Look, if this wasn't a political stunt by the Eagles' franchise then they wouldn't have planned to attend the event and backed out at the last minute," Sanders replied. "If it wasn't a political stunt then they wouldn't have attempted to reschedule the visit when they knew the president was going to be overseas and if this wasn't a political stunt they wouldn't have waited until Monday, well after 1,000 of their fans had traveled and taken time out of their schedules to offer only a tiny handful of representatives to attend the event.' " . . .

Why Masterpiece Cakeshop Is a Win for Religious Freedom
SCOTUS didn't touch the First Amendment issue, but Kennedy's decision smacked down anti-Christian hostilityMark Hemingway at Weekly Standard . . . "The court ruled that the government has an obligation to act neutrally with regard to religious beliefs when evaluating whether forcing someone to violate those beliefs is ultimately in the public interest, and that that the commission did not do so in regard to Phillips. The majority opinion written by Anthony Kennedy, the court’s swing vote and author of Obergefell majority opinion, really hammered this point home:
The commissioner even went so far as to compare Phillips’ invocation of his sincerely held religious beliefs to defenses of slavery and the Holocaust. This sentiment is inappropriate for a Commission charged with the solemn responsibility of fair and neutral enforcement of Colorado’s antidiscrimination law—a law that protects discrimination on the basis of religion as well as sexual orientation. The record shows no objection to these comments from other commissioners. And the later state-court ruling reviewing the Commission’s decision did not mention those comments, much less express concern with their content. Nor were the comments by the commissioners disavowed in the briefs filed in this Court. For these reasons, the Court cannot avoid the conclusion that these statements cast doubt on the fairness and impartiality of the Commission’s adjudication of Phillips’ case. . . .
The Supreme Court took an important step in recognizing that the First Amendment remains in force. It also confirmed what I have said for years, namely, that LGBT activism is the principle threat to freedoms of religion, speech, and conscience in America. May the pushback against this extremism continue.
It's Now Against The Law In California To Shower And Do Laundry On The Same Day
The Organic Prepper
"Governor Jerry Brown is retiring but not before he passes a few draconian laws as parting gifts for California. Two bills were signed into law on Thursday of last week to “help California be better prepared for future droughts and the effects of climate change.”
"The mandatory water conservation standards will be permanent, according to their wording, and not just for use in times of crisis. To make a long story short, now that these bills are law, it’s illegal to take a shower and do a load of laundry in the same day because you’ll exceed your “ration.”
"Here’s the wording of the new laws.
"Senate Bill 606 establishes a “governing body” to oversee all water suppliers, both private and public and will require extensive paperwork from those utility companies.
"Assembly Bill 1668 is where it gets personal. This establishes limits on indoor water usage for every person in California and the amount allowed will decrease even further over the next 12 years.

"If you’re wondering how the government would know how much water your family is using, the utility providers will be obligated to rat you out of face massive fines. And they’re encouraged to spy in all sorts of creative ways. They “shall use satellite imagery, site visits, or other best available technology to develop an accurate estimate of landscaped areas.”
Some analysis "Now, if you’re wondering where I get my assertion that you can’t shower and do laundry on the same day, here’s some math:
An 8-minute shower uses about 17 gallons of waterA load of laundry uses about 40 gallons of waterA bathtub holds 80 to 100 gallons of waterA dishwasher uses 6 gallons of waterVia Zero Hedge: Don’t think this only affects California
- These stringent measures set a dangerous precedent for the rest of the country.
- There could be a shortage of food coming out of California because there isn’t enough water to produce it.
- The food we do get from there will cost a lot more.
If Hillary Is Indicted, President Clinton Could Pardon Herself and Congress Might be Helpless
From 2016: Law & Crime
It is Friday, January 20, 2017 and Hillary Clinton has just been sworn in as the 45th President of the United States after narrowly defeating Donald Trump in November. Republicans managed to hold both the House of Representatives and the Senate. A few weeks after winning the election, however, the Department of Justice handed down a multi-count indictment against Clinton over her handling of classified information and her involvement in an alleged pay for play scandal with the Clinton Foundation during her time as Secretary of State. It is a scenario that several of our commentators, and twitter followers have asked us to analyze.
. . .
"In Clinton’s case, however, the conduct underlying this hypothetical indictment occurred prior to her taking office. The House of Representatives, as far back as 1873, has determined that a person cannot be impeached based on conduct prior to them holding office. In other words, House precedent says a President Hillary Clinton could not be impeached as president for crimes related to the e-mail server or the Clinton Foundation." . . .

The ongoing shame of CNN
Look, I hate to be That Guy but the anti-Trump nonsense is not liberal politics. It is corporate decision. Comcast (NBC), Disney (ABC), and Time-Warner (CNN) want globalism because they believe in the long-term, globalism will mean fatter executive checks and larger bonuses. Don SurberThomas Lifson: Slam dunk video exposes CNN/MSNBC idiocy on Trump:
Last Friday, when President Trump tweeted that he was looking forward to the jobs report, about to be released, they went into high dudgeon.
"Amusing though that sort of indignation can be, it gets hilarious when they make up an imaginary contrast with their fantasies about the wonderfulness of ex-President Obama. Add in a dare to find an example of Obama doing the horrible, terrible, probably illegal and impeachable thing that President Trump did, and they set themselves up for serious embarrassment and humiliation,
"Watch the one minute video from the GOP below and be rewarded with a dose of exquisite schadenfreude."
. . . "Jim Sciutto of CNN posted the picture and snottily wrote, "Trump is smiling next to a man who runs a gulag jailing some 200,000 North Koreans and who oversaw the sinking of a South Korean Navy ship killing 46 and the hacking of Sony North America."
"I posted a photo of FDR and Stalin smiling during World War II. Among Stalin's many, many atrocities was the starvation of 6 million Ukrainians during the Holodomor. They were reduced to cannibalism." . . .

He works for a network that cut a deal with Erdoğan to keep one of its international channels open. Turkey is not the only dictatorship that Time-Warner through its CNN beds with. The most infamous case was when it covered up the war crimes by Saddam Hussein to keep its bureau open in Baghdad, which became a propaganda arm for Hussein.

The Democrats Descend Into Farce . . . "Or how about this? The May jobs numbers were posted last week and the economy is flying high. Unemployment is as low as it's been in decades and black unemployment is lower than ever. Here's what Don Lemon — CNN's Dumb to Chris Cuomo's Dumber — says about the report: "There's no question today's job report is good news, including the news that we're as close as we've ever been to full employment in the black community. But what's full employment without full respect?" Don apparently thinks Americans don't respect all black people. Who's going to break the news that it's just him we don't respect?" . . .
Whining about good news "CNN's Don Lemon on Friday's record job numbers report for blacks: "What's full employment without full respect?"

Money pays the rent and furnishes food for the family. Respect won't buy you a teacup of Starbucks, but then Don Lemon's cup is always way more than half empty.
