John McCain viciously undermines Trump to world leaders in absolutely inexcusable message to our allies

Senator, this is how you will be remembered.



BPR   "Poor John McCain. The Arizona senator, who’s battling terminal brain cancer, thinks someone died and made him the leader of the free world.

"Proving that he’s determined to be a thorn in President Trump’s side even on his deathbed, McCain once again tried to undermine the billionaire by slamming the tariffs Trump slapped on China and Canada (you know, like the ones they charge on American goods).

"Senator McCain tweeted during the G7 Summit: “To our allies: bipartisan majorities of Americans remain pro-free trade, pro-globalization and supportive of alliances based on 70 years of shared values. Americans stand with you, even if our president doesn’t.”

"For the record, a senator does not make U.S. trade policy, nor does he speak for all Americans.

"McCain was reacting to President Trump’s controversial announcement that the U.S. will impose tariffs on some imports from Canada and China to make up for the decades-long trade deficit with the two countries.

"Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau and Chinese president Xi Jinping responded by imposing retaliatory tariffs.
To our allies: bipartisan majorities of Americans remain pro-free trade, pro-globalization & supportive of alliances based on 70 years of shared values. Americans stand with you, even if our president doesn’t.

What If Liberal Journalists Decided To Dox You For Thoughts On Social Media They Don’t Like

Weasel Zippers
So far I have only seen this done by liberals. Conservatives, let's keep it that way. Although it seems very tempting to "DOX" someone who has done that to others. TD


"It happened to a woman on Twitter who had 220,000 followers. Was very supportive of Trump and critical of Islamic extremism. Because the Huff Po decided they didn’t like what she said they hunted her down, doxxed her, went to her husband’s job and got him fired, named her brother and where his family’s business was, all to sic a social media mob on her. Extremely scary and troubling stuff. Yet they still see nothing wrong with it and the Huff Po supports the reporter.
Via Fox News:
Doxing is bad, just ask journalists who … do doxing. Wired describes doxing as “the distribution of someone’s personal information across the internet against their will.” It’s become an awful tool of online combat. It can result in threats and job loss. It’s been used by extremists of almost every political stripe.
Lately, it’s become a tool of so-called journalism. The Daily Beast used it to target the daughters of conservative Pamela Geller. This time it was used both by and against HuffPost staff. Reporter Luke O’Brien went digging into the woman behind a popular Twitter account with about 220,000 followers.
O’Brien’s subsequent article didn’t just attack the author of the account. It went after her family. Here’s the unsubtle headline: “Trump’s Loudest Anti-Muslim Twitter Troll Is A Shady Vegan Married To An (Ousted) WWE Exec.” Only at the time he wasn’t “ousted.” . . .
The story mentioned the woman’s husband who worked for pro wrestling’s WWE by name. O’Brien didn’t stop at targeting the man’s wife. He went after the man’s employer, asking for comment about the Twitter account.

When will Colorado apologize to the owner of Masterpiece Cake?

In this case, the Court ruled that the government of Colorado's enforcement arm for civil rights was bigoted, unfair, and arbitrary. If that doesn't warrant an apology, what does?
Rick Moran  "Will the state of Colorado apologize to Masterpiece Cake owner Jack Phillips for putting him through years of bureaucratic hell? The Colorado government has an obligation in this case to try and make right a tremendous wrong they visited upon one of their citizens. This is especially true given the narrow nature of the Supreme Court's ruling last week.
The court may have ducked whether a religious baker has a First Amendment right to refuse to craft a custom cake for a same sex wedding. It did not shrink, though, from the question of whether Colorado provided the hapless Christian a fair hearing.
The court concluded that Colorado failed. Colorado, the justices asserted, owed the baker, Jack Phillips of Masterpiece Cakeshop, “an adjudication in which religious hostility on the part of the State itself would not be a factor.” Yet, the justices determined, “When the Colorado Civil Rights Commission considered this case, it did not do so with the religious neutrality that the Constitution requires.” . . .

Anthony Bourdain’s Haunting Tweet Weeks Before His Suicide About How Hillary Clinton’s Goons Harassed Him

True Pundit





"Back in October of 2017, CNN’s Bourdain made statements regarding Harvey Weinstein, suggesting Hillary Clinton had to know of his history of being a sexual predator. Bourdain’s girlfriend, actress Asia Argento, accused Weinstein of raping her.
know what Hillary Clinton is NOT? She's not stupid. Or unsophisticated about the world. The Weinstein stories had been out there for years
"The tweet angered Hillary spokesman, Brian Fallon. He took to Twitter to tell Bourdain to “eat a scorpion.' ”
"It’s no secret that people who cross the Clinton’s wind up dead…mostly from suicide. Just this week, famous designer and Clinton Foundation member, Kate Spade reportedly killed herself. Are Spade’s and Bourdain’s deaths both coincidences, or are they added bodies to the list of folks who made the mistake of angering Hillary and Bill?"

Obama’s ‘Red Line’ Debacle From the Inside

James Taranto at the WSJ



"Ben Rhodes worked for eight full years as Barack Obama’s deputy national security adviser for strategic communications and speechwriting, a White House position that was inaugurated the same day Mr. Obama was. “Like Obama, Rhodes is a storyteller who uses a writer’s tools to advance an agenda that is packaged as politics but is often quite personal,” journalist David Samuels wrote in a 2016 profile. “Even where the particulars of that story are true, the implications that readers and viewers are encouraged to take away from those particulars are often misleading or false.”
"Is it possible that Mr. Rhodes’s talent for telling tales has gotten the better of him? This week he published “The World as It Is: A Memoir of the Obama White House.” A chapter excerpted in the Atlantic magazine tells the story of the 2013 Syria debacle, in which Mr. Obama backed down from his 2012 warning to dictator Bashar Assad that using “a whole bunch of chemical weapons” would violate an American “red line.”
"Mr. Rhodes’s prose is engaging, and his Syria narrative, contrary to his slippery reputation, is astonishingly candid. We can attribute his honesty to a lack of self-awareness. He depicts himself, Mr. Obama and other members of the former president’s team as not only tragically indecisive and irresponsible but self-absorbed to the point of moral insensateness. Yet there is no indication Mr. Rhodes understands that his account is damning. He even writes a happy ending for Mr. Obama." . . .


More Israel Demonizing Likely at Upcoming Presbyterian Church USA’s General Assembly

Legal Insurrection

A shrinking Protestant denomination that’s still obsessed against Israel


"From June 16-23 the General Assembly (GA) of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) will meet in St. Louis where delegates will consider for passage at least eight Israel-related resolutions.
"By contrast, in terms of its Middle East coverage, the GA is slated to consider only one overture “responding to the current Syrian crisis” and one responding to the devastating humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
"That the PCUSA will be allowing a “concentration of Israel-denunciatory time and energy” throughout its weeklong GA comes as no surprise. As we and others have documented, for nearly 15 years the church has engaged in this “biennial ritual” of obsessive anti-Israel delegitimization:
"As we highlighted, the GA (which takes place every even-numbered year) has long been a “regular scene of controversy” over the denomination’s stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
"The problem has emerged on account of the PCUSA’s Israel/Palestine Mission Network (IPMN), a small but well-organized and highly vocal group of virulently anti-Israel activists who have managed to dominate the Middle East-related agenda at the GA. There, they’ve repeatedly pushed proposals targeting Israel for condemnation and advancing the goals of the BDS (boycott, divestment, and sanctions) movement." . . .

Can someone please tell John McCain he can resign now?

Ed Straker 
McCain is refusing to resign.  Out of spite, he's leaving the people of Arizona without full representation in the Senate.  In a tight 51-49 GOP-controlled body, the absence of one senator is critical on many votes.
McCain apparently does not care.

 "June 1 has come and passed.  Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief.


"Under Arizona law, if John McCain had vacated office before June 1 ("vacated" meaning "died"), there would be a special election in November to replace him.  But having passed this June deadline, if McCain resigns, he can be replaced by an appointee of the governor of Arizona, Doug Ducey, a conservative Republican, and this appointee will serve until 2020.
"The problem is, McCain hasn't resigned.

"McCain has been so ill that he hasn't been seen in the Senate for months.  He has missed countless votes.  Arizona is without half its representation in the Senate, and that's only if you count Jeff Flake.
"So why hasn't McCain resigned?
"The answer is unclear, but it may boil down to one word: Cindy.
"McCain wants his wife, Cindy McCain, to take his place.  McCain may feel that he is royalty and his Senate seat is like a throne that can be passed down to relatives.
One source close to the McCain family said supporters of the senator have quietly let Gov. Ducey know Cindy is the choice of "Team McCain." . . .  
Why do we think of McCain as spiteful? Let us count the ways:

Transgenders Take 1st And 2nd In Girls Track Competitions; One Sets New Time Record

The death of Western Civilization; we've become a silly, silly people and these are the things we bring about. Mr. Dupree is justifiably disturbed by the lack of resistance, but who will resist and face the loss of their career?
The coach who was so tolerant must have visualized his remarks being played on CNN and MSNBC and outrage from "journalists". TD*






"So many people if they agree this is wrong can push back on this type of cheating and stop it as a majority"

"I know how I feel but women today claim they can do whatever a man can do so I will digress and watch from afar. If the transgenders decide to destroy each woman’s track and field record from here to kingdom come, let them. They do not have the mindset to fight against it, and they complain that they don’t need a man to argue for them, so that lets me know it’s time to watch and stay put."
 Yearwood won the Class M sprint titles last year; Miller competed on the boys’ team during the winter indoor season then joined the girls’ competition."Asked about the two girls who worked for years who got knocked out of the finals by Miller and Yearwood and the two girls who finished seventh and eighth in the finals who were denied a chance to compete in the New England championships, CIAC executive director Karissa Niehoff said, “We do feel for them. Fully agree it doesn’t feel good. The optic isn’t good. But we really do have to look at the bigger issues that speak to civil rights and the fact this is high school sports.”"Hillhouse coach Gary Moore told Hearst Connecticut Media that Miller should be able to compete, but the situation “wasn’t fair to the girls,” adding, something should be done to “level the playing field.” He stated, “I’ve been stopped by at least five coaches, all of them saying they really liked what I said in the paper. How come other coaches aren’t talking? This is a big issue a lot of coaches have, that we’ve got to do something, but how come you’re not saying anything? I’ve said what I needed to say. I’m getting a little annoyed with the coaches that we haven’t been able to get together and do what’s best for everybody.' ” . . .
And that would be what?

Ex-Ranger: ‘Communism Will Win’ Soldier Discharged from Army

Christina Wong at Breitbart


Communist "war-resistor"? Oh, yes; those people who, in siding with Hitler during the years before he turned against Russia, called the British "war-mongers" for wanting to prepare to resist Hitler and the Nazis. Every effort Britain made to build up their military was opposed by communists in that nation on orders from Moscow.
Thanks to their efforts, evil almost won out because the British were so ill-prepared. The Tunnel Dweller.

"Spenser Rapone — the Army soldier who became notorious after a picture of him in his West Point uniform holding a “Communism Will Win” sign went viral — was discharged from the Army this month, according to social media postings.
"Rory Fanning, a former Army Ranger and conscientious objector, tweeted on Tuesday that he was sitting down and interviewing Rapone for an event called: “Socialism 2018: A War Resister in the Ranks,” scheduled for July 5.
"A description of the event said:

Spenser Rapone is a former Army Ranger and Infantry Officer recently separated from the military for speaking out against its imperialist violence. He enlisted as an infantryman out of high school in 2010, and deployed to Afghanistan in 2011.
After returning from his combat tour, he applied and was accepted into the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY in 2012, graduating and receiving his commission in May 2016. Deciding he could no longer stomach the immorality of US imperialism, he spoke out against the reprehensible actions of the military in September 2017
He ultimately resigned his commission, and was separated from the Army in June 2018 with an Other Than Honorable Discharge. . . .

'This is the final verdict. My fight is over': Pulitzer Prize-winning Fox commentator Charles Krauthammer, 68, announces he has only 'a few weeks to left to live' in his battle with cancer

UK Daily Mail


  • Fox news contributor Charles Krauthammer, 68, says he just weeks to live
  • The author and former physician announced Friday that despite undergoing surgery to remove a tumor last August, the cancer has returned
  • He said there was no sign of it until one month ago, meaning the cancer is 'aggressive and spreading rapidly'
  • His doctors say he has 'only a few weeks left to live'
  • He was left paralyzed from the neck down following a diving accident at age 22 
  • The writer was awarded the Commentary Pulitzer Prize in 1987 for his Washington Post column

Fox News star Charles Krauthammer reveals he has weeks to live in heartbreaking letter

His fight against liberal influences in America was consistent and unwavering. Obama and his acolytes will not mourn Krauthammer's passing.

Charles Krauthammer: Obama vs. Putin, the mismatch  ". . . Indeed, Obama’s dismissal of Russia as a regional power makes his own leadership of the one superpower all the more embarrassing. For seven decades since the Japanese surrender, our role under 11 presidents had been as offshore balancer protecting smaller allies from potential regional hegemons." . . .

The ladies of The View do not know who Charles Krauthammer is! Yet they call him a narcissist on their gossip show.




No telling which Krauthammer remark calling Obama a narcissist she referred to; it was Charles Krauthammer's consistent assessment of Obama:  Charles Krauthammer on Narcissist Barack Obama Saying "The World Set a Red Line"



Christopher Hitchens called Obama a narcissist as well.

Fox News star Charles Krauthammer reveals he has weeks to live in heartbreaking letter

"This is the final verdict. My fight is over.”
Fox News



"Charles Krauthammer, the beloved and brilliant Fox News Channel personality who gave up a pioneering career in psychiatry to become a Pulitzer Prize-winning political analyst, on Friday revealed the heartbreaking news that he is in the final stages of a losing battle with cancer.

"The 68-year-old’s incisive takes on politics of the day have been missing from Fox News Channel’s “Special Report” for nearly a year as he battled an abdominal tumor and subsequent complications, but colleagues and viewers alike had held out hope that he would return to the evening show he helped establish as must-viewing. But in an eloquent, yet unblinking letter to co-workers, friends and Fox News Channel viewers, Krauthammer disclosed that he has just weeks to live.

“ 'I have been uncharacteristically silent these past ten months,” the letter began.

 “I had thought that silence would soon be coming to an end, but I’m afraid I must tell you now that fate has decided on a different course for me.' ” . . .

"It was in the nation’s capital that Krauthammer trained his mind and talents on political analysis and began penning columns for The New Republic, Time magazine and finally the Washington Post. In 1985, he won journalism’s top prize for his weekly political commentary. In his sobering farewell, Krauthammer said he is “grateful to have played a small role in the conversations that have helped guide this extraordinary nation’s destiny.”

“ 'I leave this life with no regrets,” Krauthammer wrote. “It was a wonderful life – full and complete with the great loves and great endeavors that make it worth living. I am sad to leave, but I leave with the knowledge that I lived the life that I intended.' ”
