After a beehive of activity, Jared Kushner will finally be unveiling his comprehensive immigration plan!

True then, true now

Ann Coulter  . . . "Trump's genius was that he was pushing policies that were popular. The fact that the media said they weren't just made him look brave. He used the media's lies against them. 
"Political analysts kept droning on and on about Trump's mysterious appeal, but in all their prolix analyses, I can't find a single one saying, Boy, were we wrong about immigration! 
"Trump proved it's not a suicidal act to notice that high levels of immigration do not benefit most Americans. Republicans refuse to understand that not all rising tides lift all boats. There are ways the rich can do well while most of the country does worse. ... 
"Some Republicans surely knew in their hearts that dumping millions of low-wage workers on America was hurting the people who lived here, but they were too scared of not getting the fat checks to say so." . . . 
. . . 
"Elected Republicans run for office on defending the middle class, then get to Washington and concentrate on gifts to big business. They'd say, Of course we're with you on immigration, but unless you write us a check there's nothing we can do. 
"Then they get elected and say, Oh yeah ... about immigration, we'll be screwing you over on that -- but we are going to pass a job-killing trade deal! And don't worry -- Wall Street will be getting a blank check. I think a little gratitude is in order. 
"That's not what we asked for! 
** ** ** 
"We had no choice but to vote for Trump. Hillary was promising to take us straight to hell. I've got it all mapped out, the coordinates are in the GPS, I'll have us in hell within 24 hours! Trump was promising to take us in the exact opposite direction. 
"We elected him. But that didn't happen. It turns out that instead of taking us away from hell, he's zigzagging all over creation, sometimes getting stuck in a parking lot, sometimes heading straight for hell, then suddenly taking a left at the last minute, so that it's never clear where we're headed. 
"But on the eve of the big immigration plan unveiling, let's remind him what we voted for. (By "him," obviously I mean Jared.)" 

Does Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Deserve Its Official ‘Terrorist’ Designation?

Noisy Room

"Only weeks after the U.S. State Department officially designated Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization, a new, extremely militant commander has been appointed to lead the elite organization.
"Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei demoted longtime Revolutionary Guards leader Maj. Gen. Mohammed Ali Jafari on April 21 and replaced him with his deputy Brig. Gen. Hossein Salami.]
"According to the Times of Israel:

“ 'Salami has frequently vowed to destroy Israel and ‘break America.’ Iran was ‘planning to break America, Israel, and their partners and allies. Our ground forces should cleanse the planet from the filth of their existence,’ Salami said in February. The previous month, he vowed to wipe Israel off the ‘global political map,’ and to unleash an ‘inferno’ on the Jewish state.“ 'Any new war, he said, ‘will result in Israel’s defeat within three days, in a way that they will not find enough graves to bury their dead.’”

"During a July 2016 speech in Tehran, Salami stated, “Today, more than ever, there is fertile ground—with the grace of God—for the annihilation, the wiping out, and the collapse of the Zionist regime.”
"Salami continued: “Only in Lebanon, more than 100,000 Qaem missiles are ready for launch … so that any time the Zionist regime seeks to repeat its previous mistakes with miscalculations, these missiles would … come down on the heart of the Zionist regime and be the prelude for a big collapse in the modern era. … They are just waiting for the command so that when the trigger is pulled, the accursed black dot will be wiped off the geopolitical map of the world, once and for all.' ” . . .

CNN, again doing what CNN does

How much more racist will CNN be?  "Just when you thought CNN couldn't get any lower, it plummets to rock bottom, asking:"

. . . "So let's also ask, how American will the royal baby be?  Hmmm.  Will he speak English with a British or an American accent? Town and Country magazineasks.  Or will he be American enough to run for president of the U.S., as some speculate, since he probably won't be king — which has nothing to do with his race — because his cousins, the children of Harry's older brother William and his wife, Kate Middleton, have priority?  Or something.

"Now, to answer Blake's question, "how black will the royal baby be?"  According to my limited knowledge of and interest in the subject plus too long ago elementary school math, the royal baby is 25% black, as one of his grandparents is black, and the other three are white.

"And for the unasked question, the royal baby will be 100% human, as are his parents, grandparents, and ancestors."

CNN contributor makes a truly bizarre claim about abortion  . . . "In a CNN segment fulminating against the new Georgia law that bans abortions after a fetal heartbeat can be detected, Quinn claimed that a baby is not human while it is in the womb.

Trump Asserts Executive Privilege Over Unredacted Mueller Report. Democrats lay down more hate

Legal Insurrection

DOJ: Barr “could not comply with” the subpoena “in its current form without violating the law, court rules, and court orders…”

"President Donald Trump exerted executive privilege over the unredacted from Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

"The move came after the House Judiciary Committee voted along party lines to hold Attorney General William Barr “for failing to comply with a subpoena for the full report and its underlying materials.' ” . . .

Rep. Al Green: We Need to Impeach Trump Because He Might Get Reelected   "Democratic Congressman Al Green proves once again to be the gift to Republicans that keeps on giving." .............................. ...............................................................O’Rourke voted twice against impeachment proceedings as a member of the House.  But that was then. This is now.    Notice how a slippery politician responds.

Democrat Hypocrisy on Trump ‘Inciting Hate’ Brilliantly Summed Up  "If Democrats didn’t have double standards they wouldn’t have any standards at all.

"For the past three years they’ve been claiming that Trump incites hate, when the fact is they’re the ones who are actually inciting the hate.
"The cartoon below illustrates this brilliantly." . . .

The Angry, Scowling Democrats and Mass Hysteria

The Democrats and Mass Hysteria by Michael James   "My father owned a house on a golf course and at night we would sit on his patio.   If we were chatty enough to let it get late there sometimes sounded a helluva riot in the near or far distance.  The coyotes had found prey and were wildly shrieking at a potential kill.  It always sounded like a pack of drunks to me.

"It sounded like mass hysteria." . . .

Rich Terrell

. . . "Somebody should tell the Democrats that behaving like Midnight Coyotes for over two years is wearing on the self and on the body politic.  If they want to preserve the Constitution, they should trust it and abide by it instead of trying to tear it to pieces and devour it in a shared frenzy of mass hysteria.

"I’d tell them, but they never stop howling hysterically long enough to get an authentic thought in edgewise."

Is anybody else getting sick of seeing angry, scowling Democrat faces daily?

Then there is this Democrat punching out a pro-life protestor   . . . " 'Did y'all put these up?" a woman asks in the video. As soon as the man confirms that he did, she rushes in, punching him in the face multiple times and hitting him in the stomach. She concludes by yelling, "F**king terrible person!"

" 'You’re a terrible person. You — this is not okay! This is not okay! This is not okay! Shut the f**k up right now!" she kept yelling. "This is wrong! This is triggering! You’re not an innocent human being. You’re a terrible person."

"The protesters called the cops and told her to stay on site. The police confirmed she will be charged with misdemeanor assault." . . .

Los Angeles Will Celebrate Unveiling of ‘Obama Boulevard’ With Day-Long Party

Did activists like Medea Benjamin ever meet a ruthless dictator they didn't like? For that matter, did Obama?

And they are doing all this . . . why? Socialism at any price apparently. TD

Code Pink refusing to leave Venezuela’s DC embassy as State Dept. slams ‘trespassers’  . . . "The United States and others countries believe Maduro's most recent election was fraudulent and have said he's not the legitimate president of Venezuela. But Benjamin has repeatedly said activists are there to prevent a “hostile takeover” of the embassy. Benjamin said the group has the permission of the Maduro government to stay in the embassy." . . .

No diplomats, no Venezuelans as activists occupy DC embassy . . . “ 'We are placeholders,” Medea Benjamin, co-founder of one of the groups, Code Pink, told The Associated Press. They see Maduro, whose government is recognized by the United Nations, as Venezuela’s legitimate leader.
“ 'We are doing what another country will hopefully do, which is hold the space.” When two countries don’t have relations, it’s common for a third, neutral nation to handle diplomatic functions in place of an embassy or consulate.
"The Trump administration has said the activists are trespassing Venezuelan sovereign territory and need to leave. Gustavo Vecchio, Guaidó’s appointee as ambassador to Washington, has said he’s signed all necessary documents and it is now up to U.S. authorities to clear the building." . . .

Back in 2014: Medea Benjamin: Deported From Egypt, Admired by Obama
. . . "And the “Woman’s Day” event she was touting is actually a holdover from a Stalinist event put on in the Soviet Union in 1934, so it allowed Benjamin and her fellow wannabe communist revolutionaries and acolytes a communist-inspired venue." . . .

Senate Dems Delete Poll After Brett Kavanaugh Beats Ruth Bader Ginsburg

PJ Media

"As you know if you've ever watched a TV show about lawyers, you should never ask a question if you don't already know the answer. You shouldn't be arrogant enough to assume you already know it, just because you really want to believe it's true. Don't get cocky. Don't hurt your own case.
"In other words, don't be the Senate Democrats. They're out of power right now, and until they start winning some elections again, all they can do is complain about being thwarted again and again. Whine, whine, whine:

.@realDonaldTrump and the Republican-led Senate have aggressively pushed to reshape the judiciary with conservatives. Decades of hard-fought progress could be erased. We must take back the Senate.— Senate Democrats (@dscc) May 5, 2019

 "As part of this effort to take back the Senate from those rotten voters who don't know what's good for them, the Dems decided it would be a good idea to hold a Twitter poll. They invited chaos. And unfortunately for them, chaos has a sense of humor.

. . . The poll didn't go the way they planned, they asked a question without knowing the answer, so they just deleted it. That's the Democrat way. If you can't accept what's happening, then... don't. When reality doesn't do what you want, just ignore reality.

POTUS pardons ex-Army lieutenant convicted of killing suspected Al Qaeda terrorist in 2009

iOTW Report  "FOX: President Trump has pardoned a former Army lieutenant who was convicted in 2009 of killing an Iraqi prisoner suspected of being an Al Qaeda terrorist, the White House announced Monday evening.

"White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders cited “broad support” for Michael Behenna, of Edmond, Okla., “from the military, Oklahoma elected officials, and the public” — including 37 generals and admirals, along with a former Pentagon inspector general — as the reason for Trump’s clemency grant. Sanders also said Behenna had been a “model prisoner” while serving his sentence.

“ 'In light of these facts, Mr. Behenna is entirely deserving of this Grant of Executive Clemency,” Sanders concluded.

"A military court originally sentenced Behenna to 25 years for unpremeditated murder in a combat zone. However, the Army’s highest appellate court noted concern about how the trial court had handled Behenna’s claim of self-defense, Sanders said. The Army Clemency and Parole Board reduced his sentence to 15 years and paroled him in 2014, as soon as he was eligible.

"Behenna acknowledged during his 2008 trial that instead of taking prisoner Ali Mansur home as he was ordered, he took the man to a railroad culvert, stripped him, and then questioned him at gunpoint about a roadside bombing that had killed two members of Behenna’s platoon.   more

If the Clinton's were an investment for you, it's too late to sell

‘An Evening With The Clintons’ Tour Ends, Ticket Prices Plummet To $2.00  . . . "The tour dates were scheduled in Clinton-friendly cities yet the struggle to put warm bodies in seats was real. Still, audience reaction has been mixed. Just last month in New York City, a tour stop brought Haitian protesters and a man in a front-row seat yelling out, “Bill, this is boring!” Ouch! That night at the Beacon Theatre, the moderator was Clinton loyalist and political consultant Paul Begala.

"Friday night’s date at Seattle’s WaMu Theater brought out the true blue Clinton supporters. The stop in Seattle, a liberal haven in the great Northwest, included actor Bradley Whitford as the moderator. Does that name sound familiar? Whitford played the role of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Josh Lyman in The West Wing. Whitford plays the role of a political activist in real life. This week he will co-host a fundraiser in Los Angeles for Mayor Pete’s presidential campaign. Ticket prices in Seattle were deeply discounted." . . .

Hillary's solid supporters never tire of hearing her say this. . . . "What she's been telling candidates who went to her: "You can run the best campaign, you can even become the nominee, and you can have the election stolen from you.' "

. . . "More than two years after her loss to Donald Trump, she is still unable to accept the fact that she isn’t the leader of the free world. The Democrats have moved on and are now in the process of determining who will run for president in 2020. The Clinton era is over. Finally."

‘Still too much’: Clintons’ speaking tour prices slashed, available for less than $14

. . . "Tickets can be purchased for less than $14. Saturday evening’s show in Los Angeles saw prices drop as low as $6, while tickets for Friday’s event in Seattle could be picked up for $20. It’s a far cry from when Hillary used to reportedly command $275,000 to make speeches to Wall Street firms." . . .

She must miss the good old days when she was treated like royalty (2014)

" . . ."a presidential suite" for her and "up to three (3) adjoining or contiguous single rooms" for her staff."The Democratic presidential front-runner's "standard travel expenses" also included a chartered airplane, which should be "Gulfstream 450 or larger jet," according to the paper's information request concerning her UNLV appearance this October."Clinton's speaking agency further expected "all ground transportation" to be covered, as well as "all phone charges/cell phones and meals during their stay." "Clinton, a former secretary of state, senator, and first lady, is well-known for her speaking engagements, which are said to command fees north of $200,000. Her staff has previously touted that she donates the money to the Clinton Foundation and that she also gives free speeches." . . .

Don Surber: "The gay mayor is boring"

First, there was the skateboarding, um, oh...I forget. The main reason Democrats love a candidate is that they adore him? 

Mayor Pete's adoration hook is that he has promoted a non-existing hoax dispute against Vice President Pence, leaving the VP wondering where did THAT come from? TD

Don Surber  "South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg is gay and running for president. His surname is pronounced Boot-edge-edge and he is gay and running for president. He has a husband because he is gay and running for president.

"Did I mention he is gay and running for president?

"Because he is gay. And he is running for president.

"I tried to find where he stands on the issues. I went to his campaign web site.

"There is no issues area. He posted no positions on anything. He is all about his bio. He is a military veteran. He is mayor of a mid-sized city. And oh, did I mention he is gay and running for president?" . . .
"What does he want to debate President Donald John Trump on?

Immigration?
The wall?
Tax policy?
Foreign policy?
Tariffs?
Nukes in North Korea?
Health care?

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

"He told Deutsch, "And if somebody wants to raise the question of which one of us has a more traditional attitude on marriage, we can have that fight."

"Why have that fight? Because he is gay and running for president."

Why Progressive Anti-Semitism — and Why Now?

Victor Davis Hanson

Jew-hatred has a natural home on the multicultural Left, and ‘woke’ culture demands that leftists hate anything Trump supports — especially Israel.

"The New York Times International Edition recently published an anti-Semitic cartoon of a dachshund with the face of Benjamin Netanyahu. The composite animal was leading a hunched Donald Trump who had on dark sunglasses, as if blind, and a yarmulke.

"Almost immediately, everyone pointed out that the theme of doglike Jews pulling along their clueless befuddled blinded “Aryan” masters was a favorite in Hitler’s Germany. The theme, style, and imagery of the cartoon might have trumped what was often published in Der Stürmer, the Nazi megaphone of propagandist Julius Streicher. The latter was hanged after the Nuremberg Trials for two decades of fomenting the Jew hatred that helped lead to the Holocaust.

"Stranger still, at first the New York Times merely explained how the sick cartoon got published in its international edition, but without an apology for its publication. Its subsequent second-try mea culpa was rendered a pathetic joke when, a few days later, the paper published yet another incoherent anti-Semitic cartoon of a Benjamin Netanyahu, this time as some sort of blind Moses with selfie stick in one hand and a stone tablet with the Star of David in the other, as he descends from Mount Sinai.

"It has been noted that the Times has had a long history of anti-Semitism, dating to before World War II, and, after that, of serial anti-Israel venom. Certainly, if the cartoon had similarly portrayed any other ethnic or religious group (except heterosexual white Christians), the Times would immediately have fired anyone remotely involved in running such trash. Was it any surprise that the Times recently referenced Jesus as a Palestinian rather than Jewish?" . . .
