Dems on WH Meeting: Suspiciously Closed Curtains, Chair Placement!
by Shifra on May 23, 2019The curtains were…closed? Ok, now it’s all beginning to make “sense.” From “Russian collusion,” to “obstruction of justice,” and now: cover-up! Yes folks, the WH windows were covered up with curtains! POTUS needs to be impeached for covering up…the windows! Or something. Via Washington Examiner. Democratic leaders fixated on the decor of the room after President Trump abruptly shut down an infrastructure meeting at the White House on Wednesday. Two lawmakers — Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md. — noted how the Cabinet Room was set up in an uninviting fashion when they arrived…. In an interview with MSNBC, Hoyer also mentioned the curtains, as well as the lack of a certain chair....

North Carolina Town Sues Car Dealership For Flying Massive American Flag
by Shifra on May 22, 2019How is the American flag a nuisance? Bravo to Camping World. The city of Statesville? Not so much. Via WSOCTV.com The controversy over a massive American flag is now reaching a new level as the company responsible for flying the flag is rallying community support to fight the City of Statesville, which has reportedly filed a lawsuit to have the flag removed. Camping World posted a message to its Facebook page on Saturday saying the city has filed an injunction against Camping World, fining the company $50 per day going back to Oct. 15, 2018. That totals nearly $11,000. The company said it flies the 40-by-80-foot flag outside of its Gander RV location as a way of paying tribute to...

Kamala ‘No More Gender Pay Gap!’ Harris Paid Men More Than Women in Senate Office
by Shifra on May 21, 2019Looks like Kamala has some ‘splaining to do. Guessing she will respond with another “Let’s have a national conversation” ‘bout it. Via Free Beacon. A new plan from Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) to eliminate the gender pay gap would fine companies if they are unable to prove they’re paying men and women equally, something Harris isn’t currently achieving in either her official office or on her campaign, a Washington Free Beacon analysis found. The policy proposal from Harris mandates large companies to obtain an “equal pay certification” by showing they are paying men and women equally. Companies would be fined 1 percent of their daily profits for every 1 percent of a gender pay gap that exists, unless they...

Ocasio-Cortez Calls For End To ‘Colonial’ Approach To… Cauliflower
by Shifra on May 21, 2019No, Sandy’s little ‘word salad’ lecture about the cultural context of cauliflower is not from The Onion. No justice, no peas! Or something. Via Washington Examiner. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., explained Sunday that a “core component” of her Green New Deal legislation is ending “colonial” attitudes that dominate community gardens. “What I love too is growing plants that are culturally familiar to the community. It’s so important,” the freshman congresswoman said in an Instagram video while exploring a Bronx community garden. “So that’s really how you do it right. That is such a core component of the Green New Deal is having all of these projects make sense in a cultural context, and it’s an area that we get the...

Terrorist Group Hezbollah Feels Pain of Trump Iran Sanctions
by Shifra on May 20, 2019Hezbollah gets 70% of their funding from Iran, which makes it even more enraging that Barack Hussein Obama sent billions in cash and gold to the Iranian regime. Via Daily Caller. Hezbollah has been forced to make “draconian cuts” to its expenditures as a direct result of President Donald Trump’s 2018 sanctions on Iran, according to The Washington Post. Hezbollah, a U.S.-designated terrorist group, received upwards of $700 million a year, or 70% of its revenue, from Iran in the past. But Iran’s ability to finance the Lebanese militia group has been significantly curtailed after Trump pulled out of former President Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal, WaPo reported on May 18…. Some Hezbollah fighters have been furloughed and others have...

Swalwell’s Finances: Credit Card Debt, Cashed-Out Pension, Student Loans
by Shifra on May 20, 2019Yes, definitely the perfect profile for a Dem 2020 candidate: a financially-illiterate failure. Go for it, Eric! Via Free Beacon. In the six years since Rep. Eric Swalwell (D., Calif.) began earning the big salary that comes with being a member of Congress he has failed to pay down his student loans, cashed out his pension, and accumulated credit card debt. Swalwell graduated from law school in 2006 and was first elected to Congress in 2012. He spent the years in between as an Alameda County prosecutor and town council member in Dublin, Calif.—which earned him $118,548 in his last full year of work. The 38-year-old congressman began earning even more, $174,000-a-year, when he entered Congress in 2013, but his...

Madonna ‘Bombs’ in Tel Aviv, Violates Rules of Eurovision Contest
by Shifra on May 19, 2019Last week, Madonna refused to bow to pressure from the anti-Israel BDS crowd, and went ahead with her planned special appearance over the weekend at the Eurovision Song Contest, held this year in Tel Aviv. If you praised her “courageous stance,” as I did… well, we were all too quick with the ‘kudos.’ She clearly violated the Eurovision rules by having a dancer wear a ‘Palestinian’ flag. And what’s up with dancers wearing…gas masks? Her lackluster performance was summed up by Piers Morgan, who tweeted: RIP Madonna’s career. 🙈🙈 pic.twitter.com/KIYmJjdYLV — Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) May 18, 2019 Via Daily Mail. Madonna left fans disappointed on Saturday night with her poor performance of 1989 hit Like a Prayer at the 64th...

Study: Many Democrats Exaggerated ‘Mental Distress’ After 2016 Election
by Shifra on May 19, 2019Now that many Dems have been outed for faking their “mental distress” after the 2016 election, will they act like grown-ups and quietly accept the election results when Trump wins again in 2020? Don’t hold your breath. Via PJ Media. In the wake of the 2016 election, liberals nationwide were claiming significant mental/emotional distress. Last month so-called comedian Chelsea Handler claimed Trump’s election drove her to drugs and to seek psychiatrist help for anxiety relief, yada, yada, yada. But, according to a new study published in SAGE Open (an open-access, peer-reviewed, academic journal), many registered Democrats were embellishing their mental anguish “as a means to back their party.” But, according to a new study published in SAGE Open (an open-access,...

Video: Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters Spews Anti-Israel Hatred in Bizarre Rant
by Shifra on May 17, 2019It would be easy to dismiss Waters’ rant as just unhinged babbling from an aging rocker who might have taken too many drugs over the years, or maybe needs medical attention. However, Waters is a prominent spokesperson for the anti-Israel BDS movement – Boycott, Divest, Sanction – which claims they are not anti-Semitic, even though he and his buddies, including UK Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn – routinely praise Hamas for their terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians. This clip exposes what the BDS movement really stands for: Denial that Jews have a legitimate claim to the land of Israel. His face is twisted with rage because Israel is hosting the Eurovision song contest this weekend. And what brings him “joy” ?...

Dems Back Bill To Ban Sale Of Gas-Powered Cars By 2040
by Shifra on May 15, 2019Why ban sale of gasoline-powered cars by 2040? That’s twenty-one years from now, and didn’t noted village idiot, er, environmental scientist (or something) Ocasio-Cortez warn that the world will end in twelve years if we don’t aggressively fight climate change? Oh wait, that was sarcasm and dry humor. Never mind… Via Daily Caller. Democrats will introduce legislation to completely phase out the use of gasoline-powered cars by mandating that only zero-emissions vehicles can be sold by 2040. “When I take a lungful of air in this moment, it has 30 percent more carbon in it than when I was born,” Oregon Sen. Jeff Merkley, the bill’s main sponsor told The Huffington Post on Wednesday. “That is a change that has...

Madonna Refuses To Bow To Anti-Israel Boycott, Will Perform In Tel Aviv
by Shifra on May 14, 2019On this side of the “pond,” the Eurovision Song Contest is mostly ignored. But last year, it was watched by an estimated 189 million viewers from forty countries. And in Israel, this contest is huge: a combination of the “Super Bowl, World Series and Academy Awards.” Adding to the excitement is the fact that last year, Israel won, and the rules state that the Eurovision contest takes place in the last winner’s country. Brava to Madonna for ignoring calls for her to cancel her Tel Aviv performance. And shame on anti-Israel Jew-hating Roger Waters from Pink Floyd, who is working overtime to try to get Israel banned from Eurovision. Via Jerusalem Post. Pop superstar Madonna on Tuesday explained her decision...

NYT Blames Wine Consumers For Climate Change, Calls For Switch To Boxed Wines
by Shifra on May 14, 2019Before bombarding your fav liquor store with these suggested questions, we need to find out if the NYT was being “sarcastic,” or offering “dry humor.” Or just being hysterical. Via CNS News. Wine drinkers contribute to climate change when they don’t do proper research and make the right purchase decisions, The New York Times warns in a how-to guide…. The Times advises wine buyers to research winemakers to find answers to questions like: • Do they plow or till, or do they have a crop cover? • Do they mow their crop cover, instead of rolling it? • Do they make and use their own organic compost? • Do they still use combustion engines, or have they switched to electric...

CNN Host Corrects Tlaib’s Holocaust Remarks: ‘She Can’t Rewrite History’
by Shifra on May 13, 2019Kudos to John King for calling out Rashida Tlaib for her recent Holocaust remarks. He and his guest have it exactly right. Via Free Beacon. During Monday afternoon’s broadcast of Inside Politics, CNN host John King corrected Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) for her recent remarks that Palestinians provided a “safe haven” for Jews after the Holocaust. King noted that Palestinian leaders had sided with Hitler during World War II. In a podcast for Yahoo News released on Saturday, Tlaib said, “there’s always kind of a calming feeling,” when she thinks about how her Palestinian ancestors provided a “safe haven” for Jews when the state of Israel was officially established in 1948. Tlaib, “ignored the fact that Palestinian leaders at...

Ocasio-Cortez Now Claims ‘World Ending In 12 Years’ Was ‘Sarcasm’
by Shifra on May 13, 2019Poor Sandy needs to brush up on Word Definitions For Dummies. Or something. She now says her warning about the world ending in twelve years was…“sarcasm” ? 1) Sarcasm: the use of irony to mock or convey contempt. But exactly who was she mocking when she made that bizarre and idiotic statement? She also says anyone who took her statement literally has the intelligence of a “sea sponge.” So here is the second word she needs to learn, asap: 2) Projection: An unconscious self-defence mechanism characterized by a person unconsciously attributing their own issues onto someone or something else as a form of delusion and denial. Via Daily Wire. On Sunday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said that she was joking...

ICYMI: Pete Buttigieg Tries To Troll Trump. It Backfires ‘Bigly’
by Shifra on May 13, 2019Memo to Mayor Pete: Rookie mistake to mess with Mad Magazine. They have been mocking celebs and politicians since 1952. Google them! 🙂 Via NY Post. President Trump is “Mad” at Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg. “Alfred E. Neuman cannot become president of the United States,” Trump told Politico on Friday, using the name for the gap-toothed, big-eared Mad magazine mascot to refer to Buttigieg. But the 37-year-old mayor of South Bend, Ind., had a millennial pause before he could respond to the diss. “I’ll be honest. I had to Google that,” Buttigieg said. “I guess it’s just a generational thing. I didn’t get the reference.” And then, Mad Magazine got…mad 🙂 Who’s Pete Buttigieg? Must be a generational...
