Things Worth Reading 3

Unfortunately for Sigi and I both our Pennsylvania state governor and lieutenant governor are socialists.  The governor claims to be a Democrat but routinely displays his socialist principles and the lieutenant governor is an avowed socialist. The saving grace is that both chambers of the legislature are controlled by Republicans.  The next four years will be tough going for our state.  Quote: "We see evidence for the incompatibility between socialism and democracy every day. Think of the executive overreach we observe at the state and federal level and consider what types of policies an activist judiciary typically advances. Socialism and every other flavor of collectivism are fundamentally incompatible with individual liberty. This is a fact that has been born out again and again throughout history and around the world. When the central planners don’t get the outcome they want, the public is subjected to more and more heavy-handed regulation and an even more invasive government. As Margaret Thatcher once noted, “The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money.” She was right then, and she’s right today. Eventually the bill comes due, and it’s never pretty."  Here are the details of our Pennsylvania leadership for those who are interested.     https://mailchi.mp/empowerpa.org/out-of-control-spending-is-a-bipartisan-problem-259413?

The video in this piece is instructive as to how hypocritical, dishonest and irrational Nancy Pelosi's stance on the border wall is.  Quote: "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has told Americans that a border wall is “immoral,” despite the fact that she has voted repeatedly to fund fencing and walls at the U.S.’s Southern border in the past. Newly-elected California Governor Gavin Newsom – who happens to be Nancy Pelosi’s nephew by marriage – stated in his acceptance speech recently that California is now a “sanctuary to all,” thereby inviting illegal aliens from every corner of the earth to breach our borders. Conservative activist Laura Loomer decided to take them up on this offer and the results were truly epic. And there is practically a zero percent chance that any mainstream media outlets will cover what she did."    https://www.americanlibertyreport.com/articles/conservative-activist-hires-illegals-to-jump-pelosis-border-wall-epic/

Another screw up by overly arrogant and irresponsible Nancy  Pelosi.  She asked Trump to delay his State of the Union speech because of the partial government shut down because she could not guarantee security.  First of all presidential security is not her job.  She did not check with the Secret Service whose job it is to protect the president.  She has been around a long time so she should have known that.  Besides the Secret Service says that security of the president is being taken care of. She is unethically playing politics in hopes to show-up Trump in any way she can... The truth is that she is an unrepentant ego maniac and obsessed with power and self importance.   https://godfatherpolitics.com/pelosi-busted-secret-service-says-speaker-never-asked-about-security-plans-for-state-of-the-union/    This follows her failed show of power.  President Trump denied Nancy access to a military aircraft to take a jaunt to the Middle East next week.  He too claimed the reason was the partial government shut down.  But he added that she needed to stay home and work with him on lifting the government shut down.   https://www.newsmax.com/headline/trump-cancels-nancy-pelosi-trip/2019/01/17/id/898677/?   Touche'...That should definitely be her first priority.  BTW President Trump stayed home last week waiting for the Democrats to come and negotiate a solution to the partial shut down.  Democrats, instead, chose to stop doing business and went home.  Nancy and other Democrat legislators took a "vacation" to Puerto Rico.  Who is really looking out for the nation's citizens???  It is definitely not her or her Senate ally, Chuck Schumer or any Democrat in either the House of Representatives or the Senate.

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is one of the worse excuses for a legitimate organization there can be. They supposedly monitor organizations in the country that prove to be hate groups.  But it is so far to the left it completely ignores most left wing hate groups which exist in far larger numbers than anything on the political right, including Christianity.  But the demented people at SPLC see right wing and Christian hate in almost anything and everything they come across.  Of course the political left loves them because they "Prove" that the political right is filled with haters which suggests that the left is populated only with the nicest and most noble people on earth, including members of Antifa and Black Lives Matter.  Anyway, they are the subject of a number of ongoing lawsuits challenging their methods and results as to how they determine what is hate and what is not. At least two more legal cases have been filed that could cause their reputation of left wing purity to crumble.  Quote: "For doing what the SPLC specializes in:  libeling those who disagree with the extreme far left of the Democrat Party on any and all issues as a “racist,” “Nazi,” “white supremacist,” etc., etc.  These two lawsuits are by people who favor a public debate over immigration policy, something the American Enterprise Institute did several years ago and was, of course, then accused of “mainstreaming hate” by the SPLC.  One lawsuit is a racketeering lawsuit by the Center for Immigration Studies and the other is by a Missouri businessman."    https://www.lewrockwell.com/lrc-blog/two-more-defamation-suits-filed-against-the-soviet-poverty-lie-center/   It is a sad state of affairs when irresponsible people doing irresponsible things require lawsuits to resolve issues, establish order and restore proper behavior.

Talk about Demented left wingers.  They refuse to believe provable facts that do not fit neatly into their contrived false narratives.  They are completely unhinged and are a danger to themselves and the rest of us.  Look at this evidence.  Quote: "Ranchers and farmers near the U.S.-Mexico border have been finding prayer rugs on their properties in recent months, according to one rancher who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation by cartels who move the individuals. The mats are pieces of carpet that those of the Muslim faith kneel on as they worship. "There’s a lot of people coming in not just from Mexico," the rancher said. "People, the general public, just don’t get the terrorist threats of that. That’s what’s really scary. You don’t know what’s coming across. We’ve found prayer rugs out here. It’s unreal. It’s not just Mexican nationals that are coming across."  And,  "Government data indicates six known or suspected terrorists were caught trying to enter the U.S. from Mexico from Oct. 1, 2017, through March 31, 2018. However, the Trump administration has stated on several occasions that 3,700 people who were identified as coming from countries with terrorism problems have also been apprehended at that border. "We’ve talked about the thousands — the thousands of terror watchlist individuals who traveled through our hemisphere last year," Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said on Fox News this month. "To pretend there’s not a danger on an unsecured border, on an open border, is just ridiculous. It belies common sense."    https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/border-rancher-weve-found-prayer-rugs-out-here-its-unreal    Here is another example.   https://www.theconservativebrief.com/agents-catch-a-convicted-child-sex-abuser-trying-to-cross-the-us-border/

Anyone who thinks our justice system is filled with people who respect the Constitution and uphold the nation's laws is not slightly off base they are completely off base.  Here's why. The unfortunate truth is that a two tier justice system exists. One for liberals another for the rest of us.  Liberal justices appointed by Clinton and Obama are especially egregious in failing to enforce the law.  They are activists and follow the liberal trends in supporting lawlessness of all kinds.  This is a prime example and will exasperate anyone who thinks justice shoul be blind.  Quote: "The Democratic Party has become so unhinged that it doesn’t just want to keep the U.S. border with Mexico wide open. Now, it wants to stop the Trump administration from deporting illegals with long rap sheets… even child molesters.  It’s gotten so crazy that a liberal judge just chewed out the Trump administration for trying to deport an illegal alien who sexually assaulted a child."  And,  "Judge Brinkema took one look at that—and scolded President Trump for wasting her time!"  And,  "Brinkema, who was appointed by President Bill Clinton, is typical of liberal activists across the country who want to give criminal aliens more rights than law-abiding American citizens. Remember when a federal judge stopped President Trump from banning immigration from terrorist nations? That was Brinkema."   https://thehornnews.com/democrat-judge-orders-trump-to-what/

This freshman representative from New York has an ego way too big for her obviously ignorant and uneducated head. Her irresponsible antics are already legendary. It has been said by others that she is a dangerous person. I completely agree.  Read this item and see what you think.   https://www.dailywire.com/news/42286/ocasio-cortez-uses-violent-sexual-term-describe-ryan-saavedra?  Ocasio-cortez again.  This item serves to point out just how hypocritical, dysfunctional, irrational and irresponsible so many of the political left persuasion really are.   https://patrioticfreedomfighter.com/2019/01/16/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-fined-for-breaking-workers-compensation-law/
