The Morning Report 4/23/18
Good morning kids. In the wake of last week's horrific double ambush murder of two police officers, we begin the new one with a shooting at a Waffle House restaurant early Sunday morning in Tennessee. Four are dead, but an incredibly brave customer was able to wrest the weapon out of the shooter's hands and toss it away, causing him to flee. He's still at large but has been identified. The Democrat-Left-Media complex of course is jumping all over the dead bodies, and shrieking for more gun confiscation. The loudest among them is Shaved Guevara who appears to have a bright future as a professor at Fresno State. The little Commie stooge is demanding confiscation of all semi-automatic weapons. Come and take them, sweetheart.
In the coup against President Trump, now that Russian collusion and the phony Steele/Clinton/Obama dossier has been debunked as a fraud, we have an interesting analysis from William Jacobson at Legal Insurrection; to wit, the effort to now go after PDT's personal business via the Michael Cohen investigation at the Southern District of NY has been ginned up by, you guessed it, Fusion GPS. So, even if Mueller packs it in and slinks off somewhere, and Rod Rosensteinpenis is fired and Snoozy McSnoozerson resigns as a result because muh principlez, a new and improved sham investigation out of NY will still continue to gin up dirt and rumors to taint the President or trump up charges against him via intimidated witnesses. My thoughts; just like the collusion angle, this too will blow up in the Democrat-Left-Media complex's and Renfield-esque NeverTrumper's faces.
In fact, Mark Levin points out that the Democrats might have just royally screwed themselves with the phony stunt of suing Russia, Trump campaign officials and WikiLeaks for stealing the 2016 election. The discovery process is going to be a sight to behold so go long on Orville Reddenbacher futures. Even if they now realize what they did, if they withdraw the lawsuit, their base will go ape. Along with that, PDT has countersued the DNC - and rightly so - over their servers, Clinton e-mails and "the Pakistani mystery man." As usual, the great Daniel Greenfield's take on this is spot on:
Before and after the last election, the Democrats conspired to rig their primaries, plotted to tamper with the general election, and then sought to reverse its outcome and tamper with the next election. In the typical manner of the left, they justified their crimes by attributing them to their victims. Extensive coordination between political operatives, elements in the justice system, law enforcement, the State Department and the media manufactured crimes and built investigations around them. Some call this network, a "Deep State." But that shifts responsibility from the Democrats to an amorphous conspiracy that encompasses everything. And that lets the Democrats off the hook. The investigations of Trump aren't tainted because everyone in the FBI is bad. They're tainted because Democrats tried to use them to rig one election and are trying to use them to rig another one.
Moving along to the international scene, evidently there have been violent riots in the socialist paradise of Nicaragua over their own version of social security reform; that is the corruptocrats have all but run out of other peoples' money and are allegedly staging the riots to strong-arm private businesses, such as they are there, to fork over more money. Meh. Just do like South Africa, the country whose Constitution Ruth Baader-Meinhoff thinks we should replace ours with, and take it away.
Despite the seeming breakthrough with North Korea, the President seems to be taking a pragmatic and cautious view of their announced commitment to scrapping nukes and ending the almost 68-year-long Korean War. And over in Persia, the Farsis are threatening the President if he withdraws from the Obama/GOP-e illegal nuke deal sellout. And directly related is an interesting piece on just what Iran is teeing up in Syria vis a vis Israel.
Closer to home, on the political front, despite the GOP-e doing all it can to sabotage the midterms, Ace reported late Friday that Mitt Romney will now have to face off against a conservative primary challenger for the Utah senate seat. Meanwhile, Tom Steyer's mutt-million dollar effort to impeach PDT has fallen flat, while the "progressive" freak show convened in Atlanta to plot their next moves in taking down the republic as founded. Lastly, former New Black Panther Party leader Malik Shabazz went on an extended tirade, demanding that Florida be given to black people as reparations. And speaking of which, guess what's going to be front and center in the Democrat Party platform in the next few years? It is so goddam infuriating that we do not have a political party that actually represents us because we would be wiping the floor with these freaks, politically speaking. Sigh.
In any case, Scott Pruitt is declaring the war on coal dead while Mick Mulvaney is gumming up the works at the CFPB - or is that the BCFP? Yes, a name change may not seem like all that big a deal, but some on the left are noticing it and are pissed. Read the link. Also of note, SCOTUS will be taking up the President's travel ban case. Considering almost everything from the 9th Circus gets overturned, I'm hoping sanity prevails as in that kind of world, this is an open and shut case. Then again, Chief Just Julia Roberts will rule it to be a tax.
Anyway, links from around the world, across the nation and up your street. Have a better one and remain blessed.
