GOP Lawmakers Unveil Resolution Officially Calling For Second Special Counsel to Investigate the Investigators  "Fearless warriors in the Freedom Caucus are demanding a second special counsel to investigate the FBI and DOJ because the Justice Department cannot be trusted to investigate themselves." . . .

NYT Columnist Worries Mueller Investigation Actually Helping Trump. . . "Bruni also expressed his concern the Mueller investigation might not find evidence of collusion between Trump and Russia.
" 'Trump “knows that if he sets the bar at incontrovertible evidence of him and Putin huddled over a Hillary Clinton voodoo doll, he just might clear it,” the columnist wrote." . . .

National Review: The Collapse of the Collusion Narrative  . . . "The early righteousness of the anti-Trump lynch-mob was deflated when the Steele dossier was revealed as defamatory lies assembled and paid for by the Clinton campaign. The feeble effort at claiming a boozy conversation between a very junior member of the Trump campaign team and a former Australian politician (who had secured $25 million of Australian government money for the Clinton Foundation) as the source of the investigation has crumbled. The origins were earlier, and Christopher Steele and prominent members of the FBI and CIA shopped his inane and scatological dossier around the media to incite the misplaced belief that there were multiple disinterested sources for its contents." . . .

"Now [Hillary] and her flying monkeys in the FBI, the Mueller problem, and the press attack our president. This is treason."

Obama-Netflix partnership stirs mad backlash, mass cancellations: ‘Will they be paid in pallets of cash?’

Weasel Zippers posts BPR  "Michelle and Barack Obama have signed a multi-year contract with online-streaming giant Netflix to produce and write documentaries and shows.
"While financial details weren’t disclosed, the bombshell deal begs the question: Will the Obamas be paid in pallets of unmarked bills covertly dropped off in the middle of the night à la Barry’s beloved Iran Nuclear deal?

Another Twitter user admonished, “Boycott Netflix or cancel your Netflix subscription. Besides the Obama Deal, Netflix hired Susan Rice, who was the NSA Director in the Obama Admin. She was in charge during the 2012 attack on the US Embassy in Benghazi, Libya that left 4 American Patriots Dead.”

Goodbye, Netflix  . . . "Given that I'm a conservative, one might be inclined to believe that my choice to leave Netflix is predicated upon the company's most recent decision to partner with Barack and Michelle Obama's new company, called "Higher Ground Productions," to produce loads of new content.  In a way, I guess that's correct.  But this choice by Netflix has not alone led me to this decision.  Rather, this was the straw that finally broke the camel's back – the latest in a series of indicators that the network has become little more than a propaganda arm for radical left-wing political actors." . . .

"Allow me to lay out the evidence."  . . . 

                   

. . . "Netflix can continue expanding its role as a propaganda arm for radical leftists if it pleases.  But it'll be doing it without my money moving forward."

2016: James O’Keefe Confronts Katie Couric for Deceptively Editing Gun Video

Project Veritas

. . . Couric can be heard in the interview asking activists from the group, “If there are no background checks for gun purchasers, how do you prevent felons or terrorists from purchasing a gun?”

The documentary then shows the activists sitting silently for nine awkward seconds, unable to provide an answer. It then cuts to the next scene…

…However, raw audio of the interview between Katie Couric and the activists provided to the Washington Free Beacon shows the scene was deceptively edited. Instead of silence, Couric’s question is met immediately with answers from the activists. A back and forth between a number of the league’s members and Couric over the issue of background checks proceeds for more than four minutes after the original question is asked.

"In this new video, James O’Keefe confronts Katie Couric’s use of deceptive editing in her gun documentary. He explains that you can’t trust the mainstream media when they falsely accuse journalists like O’Keefe of selectively editing videos, but then actually deceptively edit and manipulate video to deceive the public. O’Keefe argues that the mainstream media needs to be held to the same standards to which they hold him." . . .

Media Favor California Solar Mandate That Will Cost $10K Per Home

MRC "California is king when it comes to environmental regulations, but the latest decision to mandate solar panels comes at a high price. For homeowners.

"Those costs of freedom of choice and almost $10,000 higher construction expenses per home didn’t matter much to California’s proponents of solar panels or the liberal media which downplayed costs and critics when they mentioned them at all.

"Many California’s already struggle to afford housing and more regulations will increase prices yet CBS This Morning co-anchor Gayle King declared that it sounded like a “win-win for everybody” on May 9. And The New York Times led with affirming language calling California “a leader and trendsetter in its clean-energy goals” and referred to the latest regulation “a giant step” for those goals on May 10. That story also quoted three times as many quotes proponents as critics (6 to 2)

"The Los Angeles Times unabashedly supported the rule. Its editorial board wrote “Of course California should require solar panels on new homes” on May 11, and a columnist also promoted the requirements saying “Here’s why Big Brother is on to something” on May 21." . . .

“Cost estimates by builders, however, which include the mandate’s additional requirement of more efficient appliances, lighting, windows and insulation, are $30,000 in higher construction costs,” Ohanian and Temzelides wrote.

Bear in mind these solar panels will be "construction grade" materials. The most economical available with a questionable life span, much like the windows in new construction for example. TD 

Why on Earth would Yale invite Hillary Clinton, the whiniest woman on the planet to speak at its commencement?

This woman's speeches, like Michelle Obama's, have the goal of turning us against each other while they hold our coats. TD

Hillary Clinton and the fall of Yale and Harvard  "Why on Earth would Yale invite Hillary Clinton, the whiniest woman on the planet to speak at its commencement?  Did the administrators not have advance knowledge of her psychosis?  Her address to Yale grads was all about her: her loss, her anger at those who did not vote for her.  She is, without a doubt, the sorest of sore losers." . . . "If Hillary's speech at Yale and her award from Harvard are the standard for excellence and achievement these days, no one should let his sons or daughters go to either of those universities.  They have lost all sense of what excellence and achievement are, and if they don't know what it is, they cannot teach it.  If they are willing to sacrifice their own prestige to honor a self-serving, power-hungry political hack, they do not deserve the pleasure of anyone's sons' and daughters' presence on their campuses."   Emphasis mine, TD

Hillary’s whiny Yale commencement speech "I’ve heard my share of commencement speeches both live and via C-SPAN. Typically, speakers offer words of encouragement and advice to graduates. Rags to riches stories aren’t commonly told these days, but commencement speakers often recount tales of achievement against the odds, sometimes by the speaker, sometimes not.

"I once heard a commencement speech devoted to heaping praise on the college president (Jim Kim of Dartmouth). That was an outlier, though.

"I’ve never heard a commencement speech in which the speaker whined about a defeat and provided updates on how she was coping with it. But that is what Hillary Clinton offered graduates of Yale in her commencement speech yesterday." . . .

. . . "To promote such “understanding,” Hillary pulled a gag, playing off the tradition of people wearing odd hats to graduation at Yale:

. . .  “I mean, if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em,” Clinton said, whipping out a Russian hat.

"She should have pulled out an earlier Hillary prop — her “Russia reset” button." . . .

At Starbucks we are really, really nice people, living in fear of social Justice warriors

The Starbucks Incident Promotes Weaponization of Phony Racism
. . . "Starbucks gets what it deserves for being so stridently politically correct, but I don’t believe the Starbucks incident had anything to do with racism. " . . .

Starbucks's new homeless policy doesn't pass the smell test  . . . "When a brand fails to discriminate, to encourage only those who are in its prime customer base, it tells its customers that this is not the right kind of business for them.  Starbucks has always been about appealing to an upper-middle-class crowd.  Serving as a magnet for smelly homeless people teeming with lice and maggots will drive away its prime audience.

"Any person of average intelligence instinctively knows this.  But it is apparent that Mr. Schultz and the management at Starbucks are so wedded to doctrinaire liberalism that they are blind to common sense.  How long before they are out of a job, and Starbucks cafés disappear faster than Blockbuster Video?"

Suicidal Overcompensation in Germany

"When Obama withdrew U.S. protection, Europe suddenly became vulnerable to Putin and jihad." 

I feel it is ironic that German guilt from WW2 would cause Germans  to welcome a culture that deeply hates Jews and served Hitler's armies during that war. They took well to the "Final Solution" and even today chant that Hitler was right. Rich Terrell photosnark

American Thinker, 2016  . . . "Today, Angela Merkel's Germany is making another suicidal gesture by opening the borders to tens of thousands of predatory, war-indoctrinated jihadis – young men of military age, who have been taught to despise, hate, and beat up anybody outside their own Muslim sect.  They are indoctrinated in war theology – the last major war theology on Earth.  Merkel and the EU have drifted into this suicidal fiasco by mistake – but they still refuse to admit it.

. . . 

"Today Angela Merkel and the EU preach peace, peace, but they stupidly let in 50 million easily indoctrinated Muslims – so there will be no peace.  Isaiah (48:22) was right again.  The Swedes, Germans, and French still yearn for that Napoleonic absolutism, and the EU is always frantically denying that it plans to become another Roman Empire.

Methinks they do protest too much.

After Hitler and the Holocaust, West Germany had a long period of stability, under American defense guarantees, and many West Germans repented of the most disastrous mass regression in European history, the Nazi period.

. . . Still – Angela Merkel overcompensated to an insane extreme when she opened Europe's borders to the closest thing to the Nazis since Hitler. This is a madness of Europe's political elites.

ISIS is not at all different from the sadistic mass murders committed by the Nazis and by Stalin.  War ideologies are pretty much the same; only the uniforms, the hats, and the flags change.

Chaos of D-Day revealed in newly released photographs taken from RAF reconnaissance planes that flew over the beaches as allies fought their way ashore

UK Daily Mail  "The extent of D-Day chaos has been revealed in these newly released photographs taken from the RAF reconnaissance planes that flew over the Normandy beaches as allied troops fought their way ashore.

"Taken 1000 feet above the coastline of northern France on June 6, 1944, the dramatic black and white images capture the moment thousands of troops arrived on the beaches as part of the largest seaborne invasion force in history, and have been released to mark the 70th anniversary of the Normandy landings.

"The rarely seen photographs show a number of small ships laden with troops ready to storm the coastline at Sword, Omaha, Juno, and Gold beaches, while larger naval vessels wait further back - providing much needed support to those engaged in the battle that would pave the way for victory over Nazi Germany the following year."

Pictured below: "This aerial view of allied forces arriving at Omaha Beach on D-Day, where US Army troops, supported by the U.S. Navy and the British Royal Navy, fought to secure a beachhead between Port-en-Bessin and Vire River, coming up against opposition from the German 352nd Infantry Division"

Visible and disturbing in this photo is the tremendous waste of lives and materiel. The beach became so cluttered with destroyed vehicles the incoming waves had difficulty landing.  See the photos here.

We haven’t seen these before! 45 mind blowing images of D-Day!

Starbucks Is About To Woke Their Way Out Of Business

Hot Air

"There’s a new policy in place at Starbucks and it has nothing to do with the size of your Grand Chunkachino or whether they spell your name correctly on your cup. The coffee giant has been under increasing pressure from the media and social justice advocates after recent incidents resulting in charges of racism, insensitivity and nearly everything else under the sun. After holding a series of training sessions nationally, the company will now instruct its local managers to make the stores open to anyone who wants to use the restroom or simply hang out there whether they make a purchase or not."
. . . 
"Whatever happened when two black men were arrested at a Starbucks in Philadelphia was obviously handled poorly, but that’s just one store. A certain amount of common sense is required at the local management level to handle such things on a case by case basis. If the company felt that better crafted rules and improved training were required to prevent a repeat of that incident that would be understandable. But now they seem to be going overboard in the opposite direction." . . .

High ranking Democrats and the media seem to agree. MS-13 gang members here illegally are more welcome than upstanding NRA members

Murderers, rapists, and animals. This is how the President views undocumented immigrants. These degrading words are also how despots around the world dehumanize those they persecute.

What Obama and his political Choom Gang did is far worse than Watergate

Washington Times Editorial

. . . "The Obama administration — with or without the knowledge and direction of President Obama himself — perverted one of the most powerful, clandestine spying operations in the world and used it at the very height of a presidential campaign to spy on political opponents, punish them and, ultimately, silence them through extortion.

"If this was orchestrated without the express knowledge of Mr. Obama, then it reveals just how blatantly he instructed by example the weaponizing of the entire federal government to carry out his low, dishonest and unjust ideology. By any means necessary, one might say. Only instead of being driving by visions of justice, these people were driven by visions of undying power.

"If this conspiracy was carried out at the express direction of Mr. Obama or other high officials in his administration, then they belong in jail. From unmasking of political opponents, to leaking their names to the press, to killing legitimate investigations, to launching politically motivated witch hunts, a racket of this scale could not have been carried out without some major juice and cover at the top levels of the Department of Justice, FBI and the White House.

"The rogue henchmen carrying out the dirty work, as always, presented as perfect, decent and most honest little Boy Scouts like former FBI Director James B. Comey.

"Most of the FBI today must be horrified by the degree to which Mr. Comey and his goon squad handed over the entire mission of the FBI to political hacks inside the Obama administration. Still, there were far too many inside the bureau willing to junk their oath in the name of some kind of higher “justice.” Which is just another way of saying “selling their soul for partisan gain.' ” . . . Full article...

Why "dig up dirt on Hillary" when we have always known it and no leftist cares? They STILL want her as president!

Simply stated, the charge that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians to obtain dirt about Hillary is ridiculous and falls apart when one honestly examines Hillary’s record.  Hillary had to pay Steele to make up dirt on President Trump. But the dirt on Hillary is there for anyone who cares to know.

Weasel Zippers

From as far back as 2015 it got like this: Megyn Kelly Is Sick and Tired of the Media’s Endless Trump Coverage: Remember Terrorism?!

And 2016: Tired of media's Trump bashing

And on to today, but meanwhile: Dirt on Hillary  . . . "The logical questions are what dirt could the Russians possibly provide that we do not already know about Hillary, and how could it be worse than the truth about Hillary?

" 'Think about it: dirt on Hillary. Why would we need Russians, or anyone else, to inform us about dirt on Hillary?

"All you have to do is honestly examine Hillary and Bill’s shenanigans since their days in Arkansas. This does take some time and attention given the complex, corrupt history of Hillary and Bill. But it is essentially lying, greed, and abuse of power.

"We already know the dirt about Hillary:  Whitewater, missing billing records, selling pardons, selling uranium to the Russians, stealing White House silverware, FBI files on Republicans, covering up Bubba's rape and sexual harassments, the email scandal, destroying emails under subpoena, Travelgate, attacking the women harassed by Bill, and more. I am sure I missed some.

"The problem is not getting dirt on Hillary. We have the dirt on Hillary. There is so much dirt it is mindboggling for anyone who cares, which excludes Democrats and the Media.

"But none of the real dirt about Hillary mattered to the Dems that nominated Hillary and the Media that promoted her campaign. " . . .

Victor Davis Hanson speculates: If Only Hillary Had Won . . .

"Leakers and lawbreakers rewarded with Clinton-administration jobs — and the American public none the wiser about deep-state corruption. 

"There are lots of possible counterfactuals to think about had Hillary Clinton won the presidency as all the experts had predicted.

"The U.S. embassy would have stayed in Tel Aviv. “Strategic patience” would likely still govern the North Korea dilemma. Fracking would be curtailed. The — rather than “our” — miners really would be put out of work. Coal certainly would not have been “beautiful.” The economy probably would be slogging along at below 2 percent GDP growth.

. . . "The coffers of the Clinton Foundation certainly would be expanding exponentially. Robert Mueller might have been brought back in now and then for his sober and judicious work in finding no wrongdoing in the Uranium One deal."
