The University of No Characteristics Whatsoever

Mike Adams

"Dear Professor Meinhold, Members of the Faculty Senate Steering Committee:

"It has been several weeks since I published my column “My Faculty Values and Your White Privilege” on Townhall.com. In that column, which I have linked here, I warned you about the dangers of a resolution you passed condemning faculty members for publicly commenting on the demographic characteristics of students. I specifically enumerated five problems with your statement, which was an overreaction to a free speech controversy involving a faculty member (yours truly). The problems I enumerated demonstrated that your committee did not think matters through before passing the emotionally driven and politically motivated resolution.

"Please recall that I also gave you an opportunity to rescind the resolution. I cautioned that if you refused to do so, I would be forced to submit a series of proposals that would ensure compliance with your stated values and would result in significant cuts to the university budget. Accordingly, I write today to recommend that we get rid of the following programs and initiatives in order to address some glaring inconsistencies: 

"The Black American English Guide. Seven years ago, I wrote a column (under the title “Wigger, Please!”) about one very confused UNC­Wilmington education professor who was teaching white education students how to “talk black” in order to be better prepared to teach their black students. In case you think I’m joking, I have provided a link to the column, here. 

Professor Mike Adams: After his involvement in a well publicized free speech controversy in the wake of the 911 terror attacks, Mike Adams became a vocal critic of the diversity movement in academia. He has since made appearances on shows like Hannity and Colmes, the O'Reilly Factor, and Glenn Beck. His column on TownHall.com has earned him countless hate mails - often from radical feminists who hate males.

Assange says a 14-year-old could have hacked Democratic emails as he reveals John Podesta’s password was 'password'

Weasel Zippers

"Via Daily Mail:"

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has said a 14-year-old could have hacked into the emails of Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman.

John Podesta’s emails were made public by the whistleblowing website and proved to be a hammer blow to the Democrat’s election campaign as she lost out to Trump.

In an interview, Assange revealed the campaign chairman’s password was ‘password’ and that he had responded to phishing emails.

The Wikileaks founder said he was 1,000 percent confident the Russians did not hack the Clinton campaign, adding Barack Obama was ‘trying to delegitimize the Trump administration’.

A Victory for Law in Israel

Max Boot

"The Palestinian Authority, the “moderate” alternative to Hamas, has become notorious for celebrating terrorism against Israel.

"A recent example occurred on October 9, when, as CAMERA reports, a “Palestinian terrorist named Musabh Abu Sbeih murdered two Israelis, a 60-year-old grandmother, Levana Malihi and a 30-year-old police officer, Yosef Kirma, in a shooting rampage in Jerusalem.” Sbeih, who wounded five others before he was killed by police, was hailed by Fatah, the dominant political party in the Palestinian Authority, as a “shahid,” or martyr. It was not long before Fatah published a celebratory cartoon “depicting a hand waving a machine gun from the top of the Dome of the Rock.” In the cartoon’s corner was “a pool of blood and two helmets with Stars of David, symbolizing two murdered Israelis.”

"It is this mindset, rather than, as Secretary of State John Kerry and the United Nations seem to imagine, Israeli settlements in the West Bank that prevent the conclusion of peace between Israelis and Palestinians. Granted, Israelis are sometimes guilty of brutality against Palestinians as well. The difference is that Israel is a rule-of-law country where those who commit human-rights violations against Palestinians, of the kind that are inevitable in all struggles against terrorism, have a good chance of being tried and convicted." . . .

Actors get super-secret training on how to bash Trump

. . . . Remember “After the election, Hollywood continued to show what little sway it has on the public at large as well while showing how hallow their promises are. At last check, the celebrities who vowed to leave the country if Trump won – Lena Dunham, Bryan Cranston, Samuel L. Jackson, Miley Cyrus, Amy Schumer, Chelsea Handler and Whoopi Goldberg, among many others, have not left the country as promised." . . .

WND

"Hollywood celebrities never really have had trouble telling the nation what they want to happen.

"They told voters to vote for Hillary Clinton before the election, and when she lost, a team of mostly B- or C-list names insisted they wanted at least 37 Republican electors to be turncoats to their party and vote for someone other than Donald Trump.

"Their failed effort, had it succeeded, would have accomplished nothing anyway, since the election, if Trump had not gotten the 270 Electoral College votes needed, would have ended up before the Republican-dominated U.S. House of Representatives where he and Hillary Clinton would have been the only candidates.

"Even names that at one time were big, like Cher, got into the act, with her threat to “leave the planet” if Trump won. Cher, a septuagenarian who is actually is a month older than Trump, failed to keep her promise.

"But now there’s a new move afoot.

"A clandestine strategy by union officials to train actors to be more effective in protesting Trump.

"According to an email, obtained by WND, from Actors Equity, the group is planning secret training sessions across the country for its members.

“ 'The training is open to Equity members in-good-standing only, and we ask that you not publicly post the announcement of these trainings,” the union instructed." . . .

They don't need training; it just comes naturally. Remember this hatchet job TV did on the TEA Party?  "Law & Order": another TV show that sucker-punches half the American population

"We began watching a 2009 episode of "Law and Order" entitled "Fed" last night and I had to shut it off at the start. We saw people like ourselves - TEA partiers, portrayed as rifle-toting, hateful bigots. Only Hollywood is capable of inspiring dislike and outrage by the simple means of the skillful acting of those who portray people like you and me as despicable and violent. They give us the same treatment they give to pharmaceutical  and insurance companies.May God bless all courageous conservatives in our country trying to stem the socialist tide sweeping America because the left has such massive force to bring against them. And the propaganda is being spoon-fed to the American public. How do we stand a chance?

They Clapped while They Took Away Jerusalem from the Jews

Rabbi Aryeh Spero  "Normally, when the U.N. Security Council passes a resolution, a vote is taken and the result recorded. Period.  Something very unusual happened after the Security Council voted to declare Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria as Arab/Islamic land. The representatives of the nations applauded and celebrated what they had just done by giving themselves a standing ovation. They clapped not so much in behalf of what they gave to “Palestinians” but more so in declaring the Jewish tie to the Old City of Jerusalem as illegitimate and Israel’s attachment to the Temple Mount and Judea and Samaria as illegal. It was a celebration by too many of the nations of the world against the history of the Jewish People and their Covenant to the Holy Land. It was an act of anti-Semitism.

"There are over 200 wars currently on the world stage, as well as millions of suffering refugees and people under severe and calculated oppression. The solutions to these conflicts and the suffering of these millions are daily overlooked by the U.N. and the world’s nations. The “Palestinians” are not being tortured and live better than their Arab counterparts elsewhere. And there is a legitimate question whether they even constitute a nation. Yet their complaint reaches center stage as if the tranquility of the entire world depends upon their satisfaction." . . .

Don't blow it, Mr. Trump; the intelligence community can make a president or break him.

Trump Questions Legitimacy Of Russia Hacking Probe  "Donald Trump on Tuesday cast doubt on the intelligence community’s claims that the Russian government was involved in cyber attacks against Democrats during the presidential campaign. 
"Trump also announced, via Twitter, that an intelligence briefing he was set to receive in the early part of the week has been delayed until Friday." . . .

Donald J. Trump 

✔@realDonaldTrump

The "Intelligence" briefing on so-called "Russian hacking" was delayed until Friday, perhaps more time needed to build a case. Very strange!

Chuck Schumer tells the intel community to sic 'em.
"Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer suggested Tuesday night that U.S. intelligence agencies could “get back at” President-elect Donald Trump after he questioned the legitimacy of the intelligence community’s probe into Russian involvement in the hacking of Democratic party officials." . . .

We like to think there is wisdom and reasoning behind Trump's actions, but I fear this will become a millstone about the neck of his presidency.
So far I do not think Kellyanne Conway has been able to pull Trump out of this ditch:

President-elect Donald Trump’s inexplicable insistence on denying the unanimous conclusion of the intelligence community regarding Russian interference with our election forces his surrogates into fits of incoherence. Kellyanne Conway tried to worm out of his declaration that her boss knows “things that other people don’t know.”

Could Trump be right?  "President-elect Donald Trump expressed skepticism over reports that Russia hacked the U.S. election. It is well-known that Russia -- and China, and various of our friends and allies -- spend a lot of time and effort trying to access American military and industrial secrets, as the U.S. does theirs. But in the case of altering the election, Trump’s skepticism appears warranted.

"How did we get here?" . . .

49ers Coach Kelly fired, well deserved

Cartoons added by TD

Lloyd Marcus  "In Texas, Officer Stephen Magnes, saved by his bulletproof vest, is the first policeman ambushed in 2017.  In Oklahoma, a policeman is in critical condition,shot with his back turned during a traffic stop.  In 2016, 64 officers were shot and killed. Twenty-one were ambushed, the highest total in over two decades.

"The racist hate group Black Lives Matter and its political and media supporters are complicit in painting bulls-eyes on the backs of America's brave men and women in blue.  Insidiously, they created and nurtured the lie that police are racists who murder blacks.  Ninety-three percent of black homicide victims arekilled by other blacks.

"Ironically, the left's War on Cops has caused black-on-black violence toskyrocket because police are afraid to do their job, fearful of lies and negative political and media spin.

"Black role model 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick protested the U.S. in support of Black Lives Matter.  Kaepernick's promotion of the lie that police murder blacks trickled all the way down to black youths in high school, instilling disdain for police and America.

"When Kaepernick first dissed our country, taking a knee during the National Anthem, I thought: Where is the 49ers coach?

"Doesn't coach Kelly have authority to say: Keep your political protest off the field; you're hired to play football?

"San Francisco 49ers coach Chip Kelly shamefully ran to microphones supporting Kaepernick and furthered the lie that cops murder blacks.  This is a powerful reflection of Mr. Kelly's lack of wisdom and leadership.

"Yes, I experienced schadenfreude over Kaepernick's and the 49ers' disastrous 2-14 2016 season.  While I do not wish Mr. Kelly any ill will, his firing is well deserved."

Well, this is, after all, San Francisco

The Lame Duck Restraint Act

patriotupdate

American Thinker  "The American presidency has historically been accorded a unique place in national and international politics.  The office combines the head of state with the head of government, which no other major nation has done.  Moreover, we have retained the "Lame Duck" period between national elections, again something that no other major nation has done.  Finally, Congress has granted (I would argue beyond its power to grant) effective quasi-legislative powers to the president through a variety of means. 

"Americans today see, in the hands of an infantile and dumb man like Barack Obama, just how dangerous that can be.  His recent designation of various areas as protected from exploration for energy and other mineral wealth after his party lost all power in Washington is evidence of the need for immediate change.

"While it would be best to simply remove all quasi-legislative power from all federal independent regulatory agencies, all executive agencies, and the president and to require, instead, that actions with the force of law be made only by Congress and no one else, that may not be possible until the political power of constitutionalism is stronger." . . .

The Obama mouse that roared

Arutz Sheva

To understand what motivates Obama we must understand his deep and powerful animus against the incoming Trump administration.

"Obama has been perceived for the better part of the past 8 years by many of the world’s leadership as a spineless and weak leader, never feeling comfortable or really knowing how to implement the art of statesmanship. Obama caved in to Putin, the leader of Russia, caved into Assad, the embattled leader of Syria.

"China, Iran, North Korea, Libya, have all exhibited nothing but contempt for Obama who always backed down, stood down, and generally did nothing more than wag his Presidential tail.

"And then there was Israel.

"The objective of the recent Obama-concocted Security Council resolution against the State of Israel is nothing less than a betrayal of the US- Israel alliance and a message to Trump. The Security Council adopted a resolution that brands the Jewish presence in any part of Judea and Samaria ('West Bank') or in parts of Jerusalem as illegal will also make the eight hundred thousand Jews in these areas international outlaws. " . . . 

Petulant, vindictive Obama droppings on the American carpet.

Obama Will Never Leave You Alone  "When George W. Bush finished his second term, he quietly exited the national stage and allowed the age of Obama to begin without interference. Obama has no intention of affording his successor the same courtesy.

"He is a different man than Bush. He loves the spotlight too much to leave. He also knows that the press loves him more than Trump and will run to him for comment on everything Trump does.

If you thought you were rid of Obama, guess again.

"The Washington Examiner reports:" . . .

Obama unleashes 3,853 regs, 18 for every law, record 97,110 pages of red tape  "President Obama's lame duck administration poured on thousands more new regulations in 2016 at a rate of 18 for every new law passed, according to a Friday analysis of his team's expansion of federal authority.

"While Congress passed just 211 laws, Obama's team issued an accompanying 3,852 new federal regulations, some costing billions of dollars." . . .

Midnight meltdown as tipsy Trump-hater Don Lemon has mic cut off by CNN

Thomas Lifson  "CNN anchor Don Lemon has copped the honor of the first on-air Trump-hater meltdown of 2017, year one of the Trump presidency. Sour Lemon’s behavior was so disgraceful and out of place during a celebration of the New Year that the network brass cut his audio feed just after midnight when he began speak of “awful” 2016. But by then he already had been drinking on-air (quaffing tequila with co-host Brooke Baldwin), and had his ear pierced before viewers’ eyes.

"To be fair, Lemon has reason to dread 4 years of Trump:

. . .  "An embedded video is below of the travesty on the broadcast feed of a purported news network. Their decision on what to do about newsman Lemon’s unprofessionalism will tell us a lot about CNN's own professional standards.  As they are Trump-haters in a hole, I advise them to keep digging and pretend that nothing has happened."

Obama: A Political Corpse

Mother: “I can’t understand why your father doesn’t call.”

Me: “Mother, you know he’s been dead for eleven years.”

Mother: “Yes, I know that, but I still don’t understand why he hasn’t called.”

Me: “Dead men can’t call.”

(Brief pause)

Mother: “He could call collect.”

Clarice Feldman  "Obama’s political death -- the Russians have tagged him “a political corpse” -- is spurring him and his administration to deny it by undertaking a series of ever more outrageous acts to preserve what he considers his "legacy." Michael Walsh summed up Obama’s week: “Stab Israel, provoke Russia, grab land -- even the nuttiest Leftist has to admit Obama is out of control.”

"Obama hopes his party’s diminished power over his two terms will be without effect. President-Elect Trump and those who support him see it differently -- the corpse is spewing toxic pathogens, which will not survive a thorough cleansing.

"As a culmination of his eight years in office in which he was unsuccessful in persuading Israel to commit suicide by caving in to further Palestinian demands to give up yet more land for no peace or even a recognition of its right to exist, he manipulated a UN resolution which would have the same effect.

"Secretary of state Kerry followed up with an attempted justification of the betrayal of Israel in the UN. The speech was so outrageous that Britain and Australia rebuked it.  I Indeed, it was so bad that it resulted in a rare show of bipartisanship as leaders of both parties were critical of it: 

"In his remarks, he may finally have done what eight years of Obama’s anti-Israel acts have failed to do -- made clear the anti-Semitic basis of this animus, thereby  weaning  more Jews from the Democratic Party." . . .
