Things To Ponder 3

This item shows how "tolerant" socialist Democrats are of black Americans who support Trump.  Quote: "America has suffered a difficult history that struggled to overcome slavery, promote civil rights and insist that every citizen be treated with fairness and respect. Unfortunately, we are living in an age in which the same party that supported slavery — Democrats — now pushes discrimination based on your beliefs. African-Americans now face a backlash from liberal extremists because they have embraced the Make America Great Again policies of Pres. Donald J. Trump. Following the calls by Democrat leaders such as Maxine Waters to confront and harass Trump Administration officials and supporters across the country, liberal hate knows no bounds."    https://patrioticviralnews.com/articles/uber-driver-kicks-out-republican-interns-over-their-maga-hats/

FBI attorney Lisa Page admits that she meant exactly what she said about Donald Trump.  By inference we can assume the Peter Strzok lied during his testimony before the committee when he said people misconstrued his meaning.  https://www.westernjournal.com/congressman-lisa-page-admits-her-texts-mean-exactly-what-they-say/?     More on what we can expect to learn from Lisa Page.    https://freedomoutpost.com/dems-panic-lisa-page-may-seek-immunity-to-come-clean-on-strzok-comey/ 

An assessment of Trump that will not sit well with his detractors but one that seems to define him and his techniques quite well. Quote: "It really is quite simple. Everyone is smart except Donald J. Trump. That’s why they all are billionaires and all got elected President. Only Trump does not know what he is doing. Only Trump does not know how to negotiate with Vladimir Putin. Anderson Cooper knows how to stand up to Putin. The whole crowd at MSNBC does. All the journalists do. They could not stand up to Matt Lauer at NBC. They could not stand up to Charlie Rose at CBS. They could not stand up to Mark Halperin at NBC. Nor up to Leon Wieseltier at the New Republic, nor Jann Wenner at Rolling Stone, nor Michael Oreskes at NPR, at the New York Times, or at the Associated Press. But — oh, wow! — can they ever stand up to Putin! Only Trump is incapable of negotiating with the Russian tyrant."  And,  "So Trump did what any effective negotiator would do: he took note of past approaches to NATO and their failures, and correctly determined that the only way to get these penny-pinching-cheap baseborn prigs to pay their freight would be to bulldoze right into their faces, stare them right in their glazed eyes with cameras rolling, and tell them point-blank the equivalent of: “You are the cheapest penny-pinching, miserly, stingy, tightwadded skinflints ever. And it is going to stop on my watch. Whatever it takes from my end, you selfish, curmudgeonly cheap prigs, you are going to pay your fair share. I am not being diplomatic. I am being All-Business: either you start to pay or, wow, are you in for some surprises! And you know what you read in the Fake News: I am crazy! I am out of control! So, lemme see. I know: We will go to trade war! How do you like that? Maybe we even will pull all our troops out of Europe. Hmmm. Yeah, maybe. Why not? Sounds good. Well, let’s see.”  And,  "He is a tough and smart negotiator. He sizes up his opponent, and he knows that the approach that works best for one is not the same as for another. It does not matter what he says publicly about his negotiating opponent. What matters is what results months later. In his first eighteen months in Washington, this man has turned around the American economy, brought us near full employment, reduced the welfare and food stamp lines, wiped out ISIS in Raqqa, moved America’s Israel embassy to Jerusalem, successfully has launched massive deregulation of the economy, has opened oil exploration in ANWR, is rebuilding the military massively, has walked out of the useless Paris Climate Accords that were negotiated by America’s amateurs who always get snookered, canned the disastrous Iran Deal, exited the bogus United Nations Human Rights Council. He has Canada and Mexico convinced he will walk out of NAFTA if they do not pony up, and he has the Europeans convinced he will walk out of NATO if they don’t stop being the cheap and lazy parasitic penny-pinchers they are. He has slashed income taxes, expanded legal protections for college students falsely accused of crimes, has taken real steps to protect religious freedoms and liberties promised in the First Amendment, boldly has taken on the lyme-disease-quality of a legislative mess that he inherited from Reagan-Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama on immigration, and has appointed a steady line of remarkably brilliant conservative federal judges to sit on the district courts, the circuit appellate courts, and the Supreme Court. What has Anderson Cooper achieved during that period? Jim Acosta or the editorial staffs of the New York Times and Washington Post? They have not even found the courage and strength to stand up to the coworkers and celebrities within their orbits who abuse sexually or psychologically or emotionally. They have no accomplishments to compare to his. Just their effete opinions, all echoing each other, all echoing, echoing, echoing. They gave us eight years of Nobel Peace Laureate Obama negotiating with the ISIS JV team, calming the rise of the oceans, and healing the planet. We will take Trump negotiating with Putin any day."   https://spectator.org/everyone-is-smart-except-trump/

Consider how irresponsible the political leftist Democrats have become. Quote: "By definition, a socialist forcibly denies an individual’s rights, property, and the money in his or her wallet in favor of the group. These ideas have failed every time, and the twentieth century is filled with their results: horrific poverty, countless deaths, and a complete loss of personal freedom. Socialism is an idea the overwhelming majority of Kentuckians find ludicrous. Now it seems these socialist groups are adding new and dangerous immigration proposals to their already terrible economic policies. In particular, they are calling to abolish the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). ICE was established after 9/11 to protect our homeland. The law enforcement agency’s brave men and women defend this country and our citizens every single day against criminal aliens, drug cartels, gang members and sex traffickers."  Democrats do not care about the consequences.  "The danger to our families and our vulnerable communities is very real. In a single 12-month period, ICE seized nearly one million pounds of narcotics, arrested individuals accused of more than 5,000 sex crimes and captured more than 4,000 suspected gang members. Clearly, ICE continues to serve a critical function for our national security. Its brave agents deserve our respect."  And,  "So then why is the radical-left howling to tear down this organization?"    https://www.courier-journal.com/story/opinion/solutions/2018/07/19/mitch-mcconnell-without-borders-there-can-no-security-ice-immigration/799261002/

This is a most interesting observation and one that the political left will try to refute but will be unable to do so.  Facts are facts.  Quote: "The meme juxtaposes the vile, racist and elitist worldview of those in white coats who unapologetically set out to control the population with the same racism that drove the murderous acts of a bunch of cowards in white sheets. The online graphic reads: "We kill more black lives in 2 weeks than the KKK lynched in a century...Planned Parenthood: Eugenics. No Matter What." The URL in the meme provides the context of how abortion has become the leading killer in the black community. And finally, an image of a noose appears above those words as an instrument of racial violence (which killed an estimated 3,446 African-Americans). Today, an estimated 247 black lives are killed every day by Planned Parenthood with forceps, chemicals and other devices. Thousands liked and loved the meme on social media. It was even posted on Instagram by Bill Johnson – pastor of California megachurch, Bethel Church. I wish more pastors would stand firm in truth and love like he does. If churches actually talked openly about crucial social issues, we'd could better address the brokenness (that only God can heal) in our present. Some were more offended by the image of a noose than the fact that those made in the image of God have been slaughtered by the millions. Soooo the meme is the problem, not the genocide. And yes, I used the word genocide. Fannie Lou Hamer did, too. Oh, and so did pre-pro-abortion Rev. Jesse Jackson. What do you call it when more black babies are killed by abortion than are born alive? This is the grim reality in NYC where Planned Parenthood was spawned."    https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/planned-parenthood-kills-more-blacks-14-days-kkk-lynched-100-years?
