Chuck Schumer just got a reminder never to pick a fight with Trump

Americans voted for Trump in part because they didn’t want a repeat of the Bush years. As Evan Sayet wrote a long time ago, Trump is a winner because “He fights.”  Kudos to President Trump for a successful ground-and-pound against a type of man we all know: the schoolyard bully, someone everyone agrees needs to be beaten and beaten soundly.

 Ms. Widberg's column posted in its entirety with pictures added by TD: 
Der Schumerglower
Andrea Widburg  "On Thursday, Sen. Chuck Schumer wrote a letter to President Trump, accusing him of failing in his leadership, thereby creating a void that “left America with an ugly spectacle in which States and cities are literally fending for themselves, often in conflict and competition with each other….” (California’s Governor, Gavin Newsom, by the way, would disagree.) Schumer further insisted that the only way to solve this alleged leadership failure would be for Trump to hand his responsibilities to a military officer who would then take over the country through the Defense Production Act.
"Schumer’s attack on President Trump was not only a lie from start to finish, it represented an unadulterated will to power. If this were 1942 and Schumer thought that rooting for the Nazis would win him the White House, that’s what he’d do.
"For Trump, the counterpuncher, Schumer’s vile accusations on Senate letterhead required a knockout blow and Trump’s responsive letter to Schumer is that blow. The opening line sets the tone: “Thank you for your Democrat public relations letter and incorrect sound bites, which are wrong in every way.”
"Following that first blow, Trump proceeded to pummel Schumer. In his terse response, Trump reminded Schumer of the following:
  1. President Trump had long ago assigned oversight of the federal COVID-19 response to Vice President Pence, adding, “By almost all accounts, he has done a spectacular job.”
  2. President Trump has already been using the Defense Production Act to buy “billions of dollars’ worth of equipment, medical supplies, ventilators, and other related items.” Importantly, because of the power of the DPA, the administration hasn’t had to use it. Instead, the threat is enough to make businesses fall in line.
  3. “A ‘senior military office’ is in charge of purchasing, distributing, etc. His name is Rear Admiral John Polowczyk. He is working 24 hours a day, and is highly respected by everyone. If you remember, my team gave you this information, but for public relations purposes, you choose it ignore it.”
  4. The federal government has gotten all sorts of emergency supplies to New York. The problem with New York is that it was “very late in its fight against the virus.” Further, under our federal system, the states, not the federal government, are the front line. “Unfortunately,” writes Trump, “your state needed far more of a back-up than most others.”
"Having disposed of Schumer’s dishonest narrative, Trump wound up for the knockout blow: If Schumer and his party hadn’t been so focused on impeachment, and had instead focused on New York, the state would have been better prepared for the virus. “No wonder,” the President added, “AOC and others are thinking about running against you in the primary. If they did, they would likely win.”
"That may have been the knockout blow, but the President isn’t above kicking someone as malevolent and useless as Schumer, even when the latter is down. Trump added that others in New York – notably Cuomo and DeBlasio – have been trying to be useful, while Schumer has been useless. He also reminded Schumer that Schumer's open dislike for Cuomo shouldn’t prevent him from working for the people of his state.
"In closing, Trump said that, despite having known Schumer for a long time, until he became president, he “never knew how bad a Senator you are for the state of New York.” 
And then, with a last kick at Schumer’s inert body, Trump offered a snide, disdainful sign-off: “If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call. Or, in the alternative, call Rear Admiral Polowczyk.”
"That, my friends, is how you respond to a letter that is entirely composed of ambition, distraction, uglification, and derision, mixed in with dollops of malice, lies, and a raw hunger for unearned power.
"Schumer, of course, did what all bullies do when someone calls them on their efforts to intimidate: He cried foul. Having started the fight, and then lost, he instantly whined that he was “appalled” and clucked that Trump should “just stop the pettiness.”
Donkey Hotey
"The usual handwringers (here’s an example), sided with Schumer, saying that Trump’s conduct was unpresidential. The handwringers are wrong.
"None of us have forgotten that Bush responded with gracious, dignified silence to the calumnies that Democrats hurled against him. Unfortunately, Bush’s silence gained him nothing and, indeed, lost him political ground by allowing lies to stand unchallenged.
"Americans voted for Trump in part because they didn’t want a repeat of the Bush years. As Evan Sayet wrote a long time ago, Trump is a winner because “He fights.”
"Kudos to President Trump for a successful ground-and-pound against a type of man we all know: the schoolyard bully, someone everyone agrees needs to be beaten and beaten soundly."

Go for it, Adam Schiff! Make a fool of yourself again

Has any Democrat contributed one idea, one possible solution to the current crisis?  No.  Not one thing.  They are delighted that they have another poke at the bear.  They delight in the blow to the economy; they assume that will prevent Trump’s re-election but his masterful handling of this is ensuring his re-election. 
Patricia McCarthy   "Like night follows day, Adam Schiff is vowing to launch another “investigation” into the Trump administration’s response to the Wuhan flu.  Whether or not it was spawned in that wet market or the Wuhan lab as a bio weapon, China seems to be using it as a cudgel in a diabolical attempt to bring the U.S. to its knees.  Trump likely knows this but for a moment must accede to the hysteria. China thought they had us between the rock and the hard place since they produce so many of our needed drugs, beginning with Tylenol and all manner of antibiotics.  China is also the world’s biggest supplier of active pharmaceutical ingredients.  Donald Trump has been raging against this state of affairs for decades, long before he ever thought of running for president.  Make no mistake; China fears President Trump.
Cleta Mitchell laid out the timeline of Trump’s rapid response to the virus even though China was far from truthful about the severity of the disease.  Read the whole thing.  For example, China denied there was human to human transmission.  But Trump took it seriously anyway.  The first patient suffering from the virus in the U.S. was identified on Jan. 17 and had arrived from Wuhan.  Trump referenced the virus and its potential danger during his SOTU speech.  On the 30th of January, China admitted the virus was contagious among humans, and the next day, Trump banned flights from China.  Passengers from other nations were then screened when arriving from anywhere overseas.  Trump did all this, including setting up the task force of experts with whom we are now all familiar, while every member of the Democratic Party and the left-media were obsessed 24/7 with impeaching the man and dragging that process out for as long as possible. " . . .

 House Judiciary Dems Continue to Believe China's Reported Coronavirus Cases to Attack Trump  "The fact that Congressman Cohen is praising liberal hack pundits who recklessly regurgitate China's talking points during a time of crisis is pathetic, but not surprising." . . .

Adam Schiff's Wuhan Flu Investigation Should Begin with Adam Schiff   . . . "So, naturally, Democrats are doing everything they can to rip us apart. And when one imagines a divisive, insipid, partisan hack who would seize on a national crisis to rip our nation apart with vitriol and discordant bile one immediately conjures the smarmy visage of Rep. Adam Schiff of California." . . .

 Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced she was forming a special House panel to oversee the distribution of billions of federal dollars dedicated to the response to the coronavirus outbreak.   "Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced she was forming a special House panel to oversee the distribution of billions of federal dollars dedicated to the response to the coronavirus outbreak.Pelosi, a California Democrat, said Thursday the panel would “prevent waste, fraud, and abuse” and would be bipartisan. She appointed the House majority whip, South Carolina Democrat James Clyburn, to oversee the panel.“The committee will be empowered to examine all aspects of the federal response to coronavirus and to assure that the taxpayers' dollars are being wisely and efficiently spent to save lives, deliver relief, and benefit our economy,” Pelosi told reporters." . . .

Biden, seeking an answer to irrelevance, walks into Trump’s trap

Andrea Widburg    "Joe Biden has a problem: With all eyes on coronavirus, and Trump functioning as the Commander in Chief during what amounts to a war, complete with a wartime economy, Biden has become irrelevant. Because he’s older and therefore vulnerable to the virus, he can’t even leave his house. Instead, he’s hidden away. This is a lousy situation for someone who is trying to become president in the next election.
"During his stumbling video appearances, Biden has three available tactics: (1) He can support the president during this crisis, (2) he can criticize the president, and (3) he can offer opposing solutions.
"Biden refuses to do Item One, which makes him somewhat akin to Lord Haw-Haw or a Tokyo Rose during World War II, insofar as he is trying hard to undermine the war effort. He definitely does Item Two, non-stop, which is, again, a Haw-Haw or Rose position. And lastly, he tries, desperately, to do Item Three.
"And therein lies another problem, which is that, to date, Biden has no original ideas. On March 11, Biden’s campaign released his COVID-19 plan.
"The plan contained a lot of trite buzz words (“mounting an effective national emergency response”) and urged things that Trump had already been doing (“ensure that public health decisions are made by public health officials”).
"Biden also suggested things that Trump was trying to do, glossing over the fact that the impediments to Trump’s ability to accomplish those action items often were Obama-era regulations. It didn't help that Biden’s plan was premised on the false allegation that Trump did away with the pandemic response team." . . .

GOP Defends Women’s Rights as Democrats Vote for Transgender Ideology

http://www.terrellaftermath.com/
Breitbart  "All but seven House Democrats voted Friday for a bill which ends legal and civic rights for women by allowing men who say they are transgender to freely use women’s legal rights, sports leagues, institutions, and private spaces.
"The radical policy pushed by Democrats ensured that only Republicans in the House debate defended the rights of women and girls to have female-only civic institutions, including sports clubs, private bathing, and shelters.
"Democrats applauded themselves for voting to free individuals’ from civil society and from biology and repeatedly denied the GOP arguments that the legislation would endanger religious freedom, children’s health, parents’ authority, women’s rights, and female sports. Seven Democrats dodged the vote, while 228 Democrats voted to change the legal definition of women.
"The legislation, dubbed H.R. 5 or The Equality Act, is unlikely to get through the GOP-led Senate. But it marks the Democratic Party’s almost unanimous support for the revolutionary claim that every American must accept that each person’s legal sex will be determined by the individual’s current choice of “gender identity.” . . ."

First Obama and now Pelosi with her Democrats fast turning America into a third-world country

Is Pelosi the best this nation can come up with?

Did Pelosi 'Zone Out' During Trump's State of the Union Address Where He Spoke About the Wuhan Coronavirus?
. . . "
"First, she hates Trump. Second, she was about to lose to the White House concerning her shoddy impeachment push against the president. Democrats forgot that you need evidence to convict. And they forgot that there was a Republican Senate that probably wasn’t going to believe most of what reported leaker and liar Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) had against Trump. It’s was a clown show—and she probably knew it." . . .

Rep. Scalise Supports Bill to Rescind $25 Million to Kennedy Center
“Nancy Pelosi literally held up a bill for days to get her pet projects including the money for the Kennedy Center." (Well, it wasn't as if she was holding up money for Ukraine)
"Scalise told Fox News that the Kennedy Center’s actions show “the misplaced priorities of Speaker Pelosi.” He reminded the audience that while Democrats and Republicans worked together on a bill “Nancy Pelosi literally held up a bill for days to get her pet projects including the money for the Kennedy Center.”

Media Feverish About Trump’s Covid-19 Briefings

Victory Girls  "It should come as no surprise that the media has a huge problem with President Trump. Most of the MSM did all it could to make sure Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election and has spent the last 3-plus years doing everything possible to drive Trump from office. At a time when politics should not play a role in their reporting, members of the media continue to put their personal animus against the president ahead of their job to inform the public about Covid-19. Two of the worst have been the New York Times and CNN."
"Our country, in fact the entire world, is caught up in the Covid-19 panic. This is a time when we should be getting information, not propaganda. This is a time when we need to hear our what the president and those advising him have to say about the current situation. Yet we have media mavens (at least in their own minds) urging their networks not to cover the prepared statement portion of Trump’s daily briefings. Yes, I’m talking about Chris Hayes (MSNBC) and Don Lemon (CNN).
"I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that CNN did exactly that. When time came for the president’s Tuesday briefing, CNN didn’t cut away. At least not for the prepared portion of the briefing. In fact, it didn’t go to the briefing until Trump was wrapping up his comments before turning the mic over to Dr. Deborah Birx.
"At a time when the media is beating the “this is the end of the world as we know it” drum, CNN chose not to let Americans hear what our president had to say. They hate the man that much, they are willing to do anything to keep the rest of us from knowing what he has to say on what is probably the most important topic of the day, the week, the month and possibly even the year.
"You know it’s bad when Australian media picks up on it." . . .

The Bill for Globalism Has Arrived; Coulter helps Pelosi and CNN do her job

Coulter teams up with Pelosi against this President: Wednesday on CNN, vicious House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (CA) said that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) inadvertently admitted that President Donald Trump could not “handle the job” by blaming impeachment for his administration delayed reaction to the coronavirus pandemic.


Ann Coulter  "When the after-action report on the current pandemic is being prepared, I’m going to ask the guy with the notepad to write down: “China” and “globalists.”

"Those words won’t be on Trump’s list. He can’t stop gushing about how much he respects China and the American companies that have outsourced jobs there. Even as China withholds vital medical supplies, he refuses to end our suicidal dependence on them.

"His one slight annoyance with China is that it lied about the Wuhan virus, allowing the disease to explode across the globe.

"I have a longer list of complaints, beginning with the fact that they eat bats. The resulting pandemic now raging through our country would be bad enough, but our new crisis is a shortage of medical equipment.

"Too bad we shipped all our manufacturing to China! Not to worry, surely China wouldn’t disrupt the sacred “global supply chain.”

"Oops. China is stockpiling masks and ventilators.

"And there’s more good news! China makes more than 90% of our antibiotics, vitamin C, ibuprofen and hydrocortisone, 70% of acetaminophen, and 40% to 45% of heparin, according to The New York Times. The last American penicillin plant closed more than 15 years ago.

"In early March, the Chinese government ominously warned that if China stopped exporting drugs, “the United States would sink into the hell of a novel coronavirus epidemic.” . . .


Donald Trump has a boatload of problems. Ann Coulter, the author of a 2016 book titled “In Trump We Trust,” is now one of them.
Ann Coulter: What was great about him being a coarse vulgarian was that he didn’t care about the opinions of Manhattan sophisticates, so when they come to him and say, “Oh, no, you can’t say you want to build a wall, that’s such a gauche opinion, that’s held by the people in the outer boroughs.” Anyone else would say, “Oh, no, I’m sorry, was anyone watching? Oh, I didn’t mean Mexicans are sending their rapists. I meant they’re sending their Nobel Prize winners. They’re sending their absolute best here. That’s what I meant.” That’s what any other Republican would have done — instantly gone cowering. He never did that.But something switched Nov. 8. Suddenly it was: “Please like me, Goldman Sachs.”

Elton John discovers that even coronavirus won't stop the pronoun wars

Right now, Sir Elton is taking incoming fire from the woke crowd.  His crime?  "Misgendering" Sam Smith, a male who no longer understands what's living in his underpants.  That's why Smith announced a year ago that he's an "it."  Oh, pardon me.  He's "non-binary," which is the politically correct term for a living being that's neither male nor female.

Andrea Widburg  "One of the constants in social media posts from or emails between conservatives is the hope that the coronavirus pandemic will knock the underpinnings from gender madness.  The reasoning behind this hope is that the "gender is a social construct" theory was the luxury of a safe, affluent society.  With people feeling insecure about both their physical safety and their economic security, "wokeness" will be exposed for the frivolous nonsense it really is and quickly recede.
"The problem with this hope is that it doesn't consider that wokeness is not always frivolous nonsense.  Indeed, it seldom is.  Instead, there are two primary drivers behind gender madness.  The first is a concerted effort to break down traditional Judeo-Christian Western civilization so it can be rebuilt from the ground up.  The second is genuine insanity emanating from those poor souls driven mad by people in that first category (the power-hungry woke activists).
. . . 
"Also appearing was Sam Smith, the artist formerly known as "he."  When introducing Smith, Sir Elton said, "Here, from his bedroom in his home in London, is my dear friend, Sam Smith."  To his credit, Smith did not take umbrage at that introduction, even though it failed to acknowledge his it-ness.
"The woke twitterati, however, were surprised and outraged:"


Kevin 420⬇️@NH420Bottom
Did Elton John just misgender Sam Smith?



Jim BIme (Gamer, Anti-Vape)@BimeJim
Was enjoying the until Elton John called Sam Smith the wrong pronouns. It’s 2020 and we still are discriminating against non-binary people. Elton John has no idea what kind of bigotry and hate Sam Smith has faced. Do better.



Georgina@LabelFreeBrands
A mistake?
A MISTAKE?! 🙀
Calling a non-binary person “he” instead of “they” is an act of cisheteronormative violence.

Good grief.

Support Grows for 3 High School Girls Fighting to Preserve Fairness in Women’s Sports

Selina, Alanna, and Chelsea are not the only girls in Connecticut that have been impacted by this CIAC policy. In fact, two male athletes in Connecticut have taken 15 state championship titles that previously belonged to nine different girls. And they have taken 17 individual meet records that previously belonged to 13 different girls.
Tony Branco*
Alliance Defending Freedom  "Three brave high school girls in Connecticut have done what many of their much older counterparts have been unwilling to do… They have asked the simple question: Do female athletes deserve the right to compete on a level playing field?
"The answer should be common sense. That’s why Title IX was created, after all—to provide women and girls with equal educational and athletic opportunities. But those opportunities are being stripped from these high school athletes. And now they are speaking out.
"You see, in 2017, they started facing a different kind of competition. That’s the year that the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference (CIAC) first allowed male athletes who identify as female to compete as girls.
"That’s why these three girls are taking a stand. Last year, they filed a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education. And while the Department of Education agreed to investigate this CIAC policy, these female athletes are taking extra steps to ensure that the athletic opportunities of women and girls are preserved.
"With the help of Alliance Defending Freedom, they filed a lawsuit against the CIAC in February. Since then, many have voiced their support for these three high school athletes. In fact, on March 24, the Attorney General of the United States and the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice filed a brief in that lawsuit supporting these girls. 
"Let me introduce you to these brave high school girls—who have been personally harmed by being forced to compete against male athletes." . . .  (Emphasis in the original)

Remember the Young Woman Who Died While Waiting for a Coronavirus Test in New Orleans? ...Yeah, Well Now the Truth Is Out

The Gateway Pundit   "Last week the liberal media ran screaming headlines after 39-year-old Natasha Ott was found dead on her kitchen floor while awaiting her coronavirus test results.
"Rest in peace, Natasha.
"Of course, the left ran with the story as a way to whip up panic and attack the Trump administration.
"TRENDING: Remember the Young Woman Who Died While Waiting for a Coronavirus Test in New Orleans? …Yeah, Well Now the Truth Is Out
"But it was not true.
"A second coronvirus test came back negative on Natasha Ott.
"The media reported incorrectly that she died of COVID-19 while waiting for her test results.
"Furthermore, it was not revealed that she was in fact suffering for the last TWO years from an undiagnosed intestinal condition but her boyfriend lied and said she was perfectly healthy.
"She was a “Peace Corps Alumni.”
"The Sun Herald reported:
The exact reason the woman, Natasha Ott, died remains under investigation by the Coroner’s Office, spokesman Jason Melancon said. Such investigations can take several weeks to complete.
Ott’s death drew public notice when her boyfriend, Josh Anderson, wrote in a widely shared social media post that he had found her dead March 20 in her kitchen. Anderson recounted that an ailing Ott, after testing negative for the flu, had been tested for COVID-19 — the potentially deadly respiratory disease caused by the virus — but died before getting the results back.
"So will any of the liberal news outlets correct their lies?
"It’s doubtful."
