Angry Salon Customers Hang Blow Dryers on Tree Outside Nancy Pelosi’s House
by Shifra on September 4, 2020Nancy Pelosi has held public office since 1987. And what will she be remembered for? Getting her hair done without a mask, violating state restrictions, and then throwing the salon ‘under the bus.’ ‘ Oh yeah, and the designer ice cream in her $24,000 refrigerator.

Biden Bloopers: Trump Responsible For ‘Birth of Right American Future’
by Shifra on September 1, 2020Biden’s Pittsburgh speech yesterday was, as expected, hailed by the Dems and MSM (but I repeat myself) as a big success.

(see below) But I do admit to enjoying the ‘highlights’: HT Breitbart. Joe Biden's campaign is a complete mess. They can't sort out technical difficulties at his campaign stop in Pittsburgh, PA. pic.twitter.com/u3grhOwVPW — Steve Guest (@SteveGuest) August 31, 2020 Trump is responsible for the ‘birth of the right American future’ ?

by Shifra on August 24, 2020There were so many lies, er, untruths, at the Democrats’ Trump Derangement Syndrome Telethon, er, Amateur Hour, er, Orange Man Bad Show, er, convention, that it was hard to keep track. But along with their absurd claims that President Trump was somehow responsible for COVID-19, and that the amazing economic recovery of the past three years was thanks to Obama (um, no!), there were also many lies of omission. Yes, it would have been nice if someone had acknowledged the reality of the violence in (Democrat-led) cities. But here is something else they conveniently omitted: the Obama-Biden Team response to the H1N1 virus, as Kimberley Strassel reminds us: Via Wall Street Journal.

Epic Fail: DNC Native American Caucus Features… Elizabeth Warren
by Shifra on August 19, 2020Is anyone actually in charge of this DNC disaster, er, convention? Or are some recently hired high school interns running the show? Via Washington Examiner.

by Shifra on August 18, 2020Michelle’s depressing speech was so full of lies, er, distortions, that I was waiting to hear her claim that President Trump was spotted trying to steal the mailbox on Martha’s Vineyard.
