‘PolitiFact’ Fact-Checks… A Joke About Hillary
by Shifra on March 12, 2020Proving once again that Libs have no sense of humor. Via Washington Examiner. …It should not go unnoticed…that the news media’s newfound concern for political satire is reserved almost entirely for jokes told by people on the Right.

If you can believe it, Magnafici’s clowning on the failed two-time presidential candidate landed the state representative in hot water with the media fact-checking group...

Chuck Schumer Tries To Walk Back His Threats To Supreme Court Justices
by Shifra on March 5, 2020Schumer claims he did not make any threats. It’s just that he’s from Brooklyn, and “we speak in strong language.” Really? Well, here is something else from Brooklyn: Fuhgeddaboudit! Schumer’s lame attempt to excuse his behavior is inexcusable. Via NY Post. Sen. Chuck Schumer on Thursday tried to walk back his threat against two conservative Supreme Court justices — claiming the remarks didn’t come out the way he intended because he was “angry” over abortion rights. “I’m from Brooklyn. We speak in strong language. I shouldn’t have used the words I did, but in no way was I making a threat,” Schumer said on the Senate floor.

Australia’s Leftists Play Climate Change Blame-Game
by Shifra on January 14, 2020Oh, look: For some reason, Barack Obama felt the need to chime in with this dumb, er, nonsensical, er, “progressive” talking point: That's odd The Australian police have arrested two hundred folks for arson https://t.co/wzrBjy2DhR — Jim Hanson (@JimHansonDC) January 13, 2020 Via WSJ. ….The current round of blazes started late last year.

by Shifra on December 20, 2019Hey BDS-loving Jew-haters: Say ‘Cheese’ 🙂 Via Middle East Forum. Berkeley Peace and Justice Commissioner Hatem Bazian has issued a call-out on his Facebook page to boycott Trader Joe’s for daring to stock Israeli feta cheese. Hatem writes: “Trader Joe’s is having Israeli Feta on its shelves! One more reason to stop shopping at the store. “…. Hatem may not remember the 2009 BDS action against Trader Joe’s.

Dems Wear Black To Show They Have ‘The Sadz’ Over Impeachment
by Shifra on December 18, 2019Yes, the Dems really think we are dumb enough to fall for the “black dress code equals somber mood” schtick. But what they don’t understand is that black was indeed very appropriate, but for another reason: Today is the beginning of the political death throes of a whole bunch of them. RIP, Democrat Party. Via PJ Media. Desperate to give the false impression that impeachment isn’t what Democrats have always wanted since the moment Trump was elected, House Democrats have received strict orders on how to handle themselves as the impeachment vote proceeds. Axios reports that “House Democratic leaders told caucus members not to cheer or applaud when today’s impeachment vote totals are announced.” One Democrat from a Trump district...

by Shifra on December 4, 2019This bitter, angry law prof apparently lives by Michelle Obama’s “When they go low, we go…”despicably lower…Or something. Via Washington Examiner. President Trump’s campaign blasted Stanford law professor Pamela Karlan for mentioning 13-year-old Barron Trump while she attacked his father during a hearing in front of the House Judiciary Committee. “Only in the minds of crazed liberals is it funny to drag a 13-year-old child into the impeachment nonsense,” Kayleigh McEnany, a Trump campaign spokesperson, said in a statement on Wednesday. “Pamela Karlan thought she was being clever and going for laughs, but she instead reinforced for all Americans that Democrats have no boundaries when it comes to their hatred of everything related to President Trump.

Flashback: WaPo Columnist Who Mocked Melania’s Coat Called Hillary ‘Style Icon’
by Shifra on December 3, 2019According to Wapo’s Robin Givhans, Melania Trump’s coat is “ridiculous.” But Hillary Clinton is a style icon ? OK, got it. Whatever… Via Federalist. You’ve likely noticed that many in the media are a bit emotionally invested in defeating Donald Trump.

Designers have responded in ways that have been inventive, charming and reassuring. They have refused to be caught up in all the old clichés of polished jackets and below-the-knee skirts. And they are thinking...

by Shifra on December 2, 2019Confused Libs. And I think I just repeated myself. 🙂 Via NY Post. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has been named WholeFoods Magazine’s person of the year. No, not that Whole Foods. The popular grocery chain sent out dozens of tweets this week clearing up the confusion and emphasizing that the publication has no affiliation with its company.

Schiff’s Quid Pro Woe: Independents Are Tuning Out Impeachment ‘Show’
by Shifra on November 18, 2019As reported in WaPo, Adam Schiff once dreamed of becoming a screenwriter: When Adam Schiff was a young assistant U.S. attorney living in Los Angeles, he did what everyone does when they move to Hollywood. He wrote a screenplay. He spent hours at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, reading the scripts for “Silence of the Lambs” and “Witness” in the library. (it was the ’90s). He leaned on his courtroom experience, thinking back on snippets of dialogue during trials as he typed out a crime thriller. The prosecutor was the hero, naturally. He called it “Minotaur,” and, if you ask Schiff, it was pretty good…. But his latest “work,” the Impeachment Show, is fast becoming a dud....

NY Post Cover Mocks Impeachment Hearings: ‘Guilty! Now For The Trial’
by Shifra on November 13, 2019The NY Post cover says it all. Perfectly. Via Daily Wire.

Flashback: Biden, 29, Won Election By Highlighting Opponent’s ‘Old’ Age
by Shifra on October 16, 2019Just in case you feel sorry for Joe being attacked for memory lapses, goofy misstatements and gaffes galore. Via WSJ. In 1972,…Cale Boggs was a two-term U.S. senator from Delaware. He was 63. Reporters in their coverage of the campaign described his “thinning hair” and said he sometimes got “tongue-tied.” His challenger, meanwhile, a one-term county councilman, was 29.

Sanders: ‘Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist,’ Plans Confiscating Half Their Wealth
by Shifra on September 24, 2019Bernie Sanders’ net worth is over a million dollars, so maybe ‘millionaires shouldn’t exist’ and we should confiscate half his assets? I hear his $600,000 beach house is lovely this time of year. Via Business Insider. Sen. Bernie Sanders rolled out a plan to tax the wealth of the nation’s ultra-rich on Tuesday, going further than his Democratic primary rival Sen. Elizabeth Warren with his proposal that could greatly erode the fortunes of billionaires with steep taxes. Sander’s wealth tax is more aggressive than Warren’s given its wider scope and scale. It would impact more households, levy a higher marginal tax rate, and ultimately bring in more money for government coffers to help pay for some of his ambitious proposals...
