The Mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico's campaign to make Trump look bad

Geraldo Rivera calls BS on San Juan mayor’s false Trump blame: ‘I’m here. Who is dying?’ "The mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico, may have bitten off more than she can chew in politicizing the Trump administration’s relief efforts following Hurricane Maria now that Geraldo Rivera is on the case.

#SanJuanMayor says residents are "dying," & somehow @realDonaldTrump is to blame. I'm here. Who is dying? Why? Where? Let me help save them.Ads info and privacy

"When not busy cranking out nifty custom T-shirts and hats by candlelight, Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz has made a name for herself complaining about the people who have come to her island to help with recovery efforts."

Puerto Rico Mayor SLAMS Anti-Trump Mayor for ‘NOT PARTICIPATING’ in Relief  . . . "Cruz has repeatedly accused Trump and the federal government of abandoning Puerto Rico. She demanded in a press conference on Friday that Trump do more to help the island, adding that “we are going to see is something close to a genocide” if more is not done.

Mayor Perez told TheDC that the story Cruz is telling the media doesn’t mesh with what he has seen from the federal government.\

“ 'My experience is different. I have been participating in different meetings at the headquarters of FEMA and our government and the help is coming in and right now my experience is different from hers. I’m receiving help from the government, we are receiving assistance from FEMA, I got people over here helping us with applications for the people that have damage in their houses. And we have here in Guaynabo, we have thousands of people that lost partially or totally their houses,” said Perez, who is a member of Puerto Rico’s New Progressive Party.

People notice something ODD about San Juan mayor’s T-shirt during CNN interview…   . . . "With Cruz prioritizing printing political T-shirts over storm relief, is it any wonder Trump took notice? In fact, Trump’s not the only one to notice the lack of action from Cruz. Asked about the situation, a neighboring mayor blasted Cruz while praising Trump’s response:

Guaynabo’s Mayor Angel Perez said he has no idea what the hell Cruz is talking about since his city has been receiving aid. The reason why they are getting help is because Perez has kept on top of relief efforts by attending meetings with officials from FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) and other federal agencies.“I don’t know why she is saying that,” Perez told the Daily Caller. “She is not participating in any meetings. We had a couple already with the governors and with representation of FEMA and of HUD, these whole federal agencies that have given us help. We are receiving assistance from FEMA. I got people over here helping us with applications for the people that have damage in their houses.”

"Meanwhile, real people are suffering in Puerto Rico. Sadly, liberals are more interested in turning their suffering into a political narrative, rather than actually doing what’s required to help themselves." . . .

EVEN Liberal PBS Debunks the Anti-Trump Media’s Puerto Rico LIES!
"President Trump has bent over backward for Puerto Rico, and the governor appeared on PBS, where he praised Trump for his swift response."

On the NFL protests

Football with a side of sanctimony  . . . "Starbucks tried something similar.  In 2015, the coffee company encouraged its baristas to engage customers in conversations about race.  This effort was terminated within a week, amid a firestorm of criticism, indignation, and jokes.  Their customers didn't want coffee served with self-righteousness back then, and football fans don't want to watch sanctimonious football players now.

"The NFL could stop this anytime it wants.  In July 2016, for example, the league prohibited Dallas players from wearing decals in support of five Dallas policemen who had been killed in an ambush. " . . .

 "This prompted the Ravens and the Jaguars to take their lack of respect for our flag overseas.  On September 24 in London, players for those teams kneeled for The Star-Spangled Banner, then stood up for God Save the Queen." . . .

Rick Moran: NFL desperately looking for compromise on anthem protests  
. . . "It also leaves the racial protesters out in the cold, preventing them from fulfilling Colin Kaepernick's promise: "I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color.' " . . .


ESPN is indeed becoming more leftist:

Fox Video

Sharpton missed the boat this time:
Thomas Lifson: Al Sharpton, desperate for a popular cause, chases bandwagon that has already departed  . . . "There are lots of laws that impact “people of color” more than colorless people (as if Caucasians are transparent). Shall we throw out murder laws because blacks commit that crime more often?"
. . . Sharpton "sparked an actual pogrom, an antisemitic riot in Crown Heights, Brooklyn in 1991, and following his denunciation of “white interlopers” (A Jewish-owned store) in Harlem, Freddie’s Fashion Mart was firebombed with 7 deaths."


Kaepernick, the Smithsonian, and the Lessons of History  . . . " Fifty years later, the left has a death grip on the NFL.  There is a complete lack of leadership by the NFL owners and the commissioner to hold players accountable for their on-field political actions." . . .

Wall Street vets are threatening to pull the plug on the NFL  . . . "On Thursday, Allan Jones, founder of Check Into Cash, said that he is pulling all commercials for his lending companies during NFL games for the rest of the season.
"In other fallout, DirecTV said it will refund subscribers of its NFL Sunday Ticket package if they are opposed to the protests". . . 

How Trump beat the NFL   "The biggest story of the weekend is from Canton, Ohio, where suddenly -- spontaneously -- for no apparent reason but plain patriotism, the Pro Football Hall of Fame sprouted 800 American flags." . . .

Blame the NFL, Not Trump  . . . Trump is not adept at governing, but he is a master culture warrior. He is president because he knows his Middle American, working-class supporters, what angers and energizes them. He also seems to get, in a way his Beltway betters do not, the chasms between elite opinion and grassroots sensibility. His antennae detect when the former is woefully out of touch." . . .

The regret I have is not being able to undo the wrong done to black athletes of the past, such as Satchel Paige and so many others who could not participate in mainstream sports. They were not even allowed to eat in the same restaurants nor stay in the same hotels as whites. They are the ones I wish to have gone back in time and make everything right for, not these wealthy, left-wing anti-American malcontents. TD

Everything (That's Not Sexism) Is Racism

"With such a cynical, divisive and mendacious strategy, is it any surprise that the DNC coffers are running low?"

Clarice Feldman  "For some time now, Democrats have played the identity politics game, revving up grievances -- real or imagined -- of different ethnic groups with the only commonality a dismissive prejudice against middle-class white men. This divisive disunity strategy served them well for a while, but no longer. With nothing else to replace it, it’s between Scylla and Charybdis -- risk losing the base and seek broader appeal or crash into obscurity. They continue to choose poorly.

"I don’t know the name of the person who created this, but it shows rather well the arguments of the everything-is-racism in their deck of cards:

. . . 

"So many of the reported crimes purportedly motivated by Islamophobia have proven to be faked (like the crimes of racism and sexism) that rationally we’ve grown to view all with a jaundiced eye. Still, it took chutzpah for Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (former DNC chair) to suggest that the still barely covered Awan brothers scandal was a product of Islamophobia. 

"With such a cynical, divisive and mendacious strategy, is it any surprise that the DNC coffers are running low? Donors and supporters are abandoning the party in droves."

List of NFL Sponsors

Dear NFL: I’m not “boycotting” you. I just don’t care anymore, about you.

"The NFL players’ sideline protests over the National Anthem and flag have angered a lot of people. On the surface, that anger is about patriotism versus a sense of entitlement, with the players having too little of the former and too much of the latter.

"But there’s another feeling of disgust I’m hearing a lot, how the NFL was one of the few remaining places to which we could escape from politics and just be left alone and allowed to enjoy something. The NFL was an escape.

"That’s a sentiment I expressed in my post, NFL picked sides in the culture war, now it has to live with the consequences: . . ."

All Players Stood For National Anthem During Thursday Night's Football Game

Leah Barkoukis

"During Thursday night’s NFL game between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears, every player, staff, and coach stood with linked arms for the national anthem.

"Some fans also followed suit, locking arms with each other, while others put their hands over their hearts. When the Star-Spangled Banner was over, everyone celebrated the show of unity with loud cheers and applause.

"On Tuesday night, quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the entire Green Bay Packers team released a statement, asking fans to stand and lock arms with each other during the national anthem before Thursday night’s game. The players said the team coaches and staff were going to join them as well." . . .

This Bills Player Did Something More Disrespectful than Kneel During the Anthem  . . . "Asked about his stretches after the game, the running back explained that he cares about the flag, but not our "jerk" of a president." . . .

In His Own Words: Colin Kaepernick’s Anthem Protest Was Against The Flag And The Country  . . . "He refused to stand because he did not want to “show pride in a flag for a country.” That’s what he said. Why that country and flag do not deserve Kaepernick’s pride is not irrelevant, but it also can’t inoculate the fact that the action – the choice- to not stand was clearly meant to send a signal of disrespect for the symbol and the country it symbolizes. 

"This is an important historic point because in the wake of President Donald Trump’s Alabama speech last week expressing his wish that NFL owners would fire those “sons of bitches” who do not stand during the national anthem, one of the frequent defenses we’ve heard in the media is that the protests were not against the flag or the country, but merely against police brutality." . . .

‘Women’s studies’ is betraying women under Sharia law

The association doesn't condemn, for example, the atrocities being practiced by Hamas, ISIS, Boko Haram and the Taliban against Muslim women, children and dissidents and against Christian, Yazidi and Kurdish women whom ISIS has captured as sex slaves.

Cartoon added, TD

Phyllis Chesler (From Dec, 2015)   Last week, the National Women's Studies Association membership voted to boycott Israel. The resolution reads, in part:

"As feminist scholars, activists, teachers, and public intellectuals . . . we cannot overlook injustice and violence, including sexual and gender-based violence, perpetrated against Palestinians and other Arabs in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, within Israel and in the Golan Heights, as well as the colonial displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians during the 1948 Nakba."

"This vote is an utter betrayal of both reality and of women — especially women who live under Sharia law.

"In 1970, I taught one of the first Women's Studies courses in the country. What I had envisioned for the discipline has nothing to do with today's anti-American, anti-Israel, post-colonial, faux-scholarly feminist academy. 

"Today, Women's Studies has been Stalinized and feminist professors are less concerned with the "occupation" of women's bodies world-wide than they are with the alleged occupation of a country that has never existed: "Palestine.' " . . .

Phyllis Chesler is emerita professor of psychology and the author of 16 books including "Living History: On the Front Line for Israel and the Jews, 2003-2015."

This video fails to show the decent behavior of the majority of Muslim men in the west. This does, however show what these feminist groups choose to ignore for reasons I cannot fathom. TD

Colin Kaepernick donated $25K to organization named after cop killer

Rick Moran   "The next time that Colin Kaepernick says he's not anti-police, someone should ask him about a $25,000 donation his foundation made to a charitable organization named after a notorious cop killer who escaped from prison and now lives in Cuba. 

"The organization, Chicago-based Assata's Daughter's, is named after Assata Shakur* (pictured right), a member of the Black Panthers, was stopped by a New Jersey state trooper in 1973, during which a gunfight ensued and the trooper,  Werner Foerster, was killed. She was convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to life in prison.

"But in 1979, members of the Black Liberation Army busted her out of jail and she was welcomed with open arms by Castro's Cuba. She has been atop the FBI's Most Wanted list ever since." . . .

*Assata Shakur  . . ."In 1972, Shakur was the subject of a nationwide manhunt after the FBI alleged that she was the "revolutionary mother hen" of a Black Liberation Army cell that had conducted a "series of cold-blooded murders of New York City police officers".^[34] The FBI said these included the "execution style murders" of New York Police Officers Joseph Piagentini and Waverly Jones on May 21, 1971, and NYPD officers Gregory Foster and Rocco Laurie on January 28, 1972." . . .

Mike Lester Made A Clever Cartoon Describing The Issue With Anthem Protests

Conservative Fighters   "The national anthem protests rose numerous reactions, among which the audience can witness hypocrisy of the NFL and its supporters among mainstream media regarding this issue.

"The executive director of the NFL Players Association, DeMaurice Smith, this weekend obviously made dumb remarks, made this remarkably clear:

“ 'No man or woman should ever have to choose a job that forces them to surrender their rights,” he stated Saturday, just one day after President Trump made the vulgar statement that the team owners should fire all the players who disrespect the national anthem and protest.

“ 'We understand that our job as a union is not to win a popularity contest and it comes with a duty to protect the rights of our members,” Smith continued. “For that, we make no apologies and never will.' ” . . .
