Sunday Overnight Open Thread (7/7/19)

Quote I

“I’m a celebrator of all things good while I fight and try to destroy all things bad and ugly. I’ll be 71 glowing, youthful years old this year — 71! Count them. And in my 71 years — I suspect I was paying attention by 1949 — this is the best president I have ever seen. This is a hell-raisin’, we the people, Constitution, Bill Of Rights, be the best that you can be.

Here’s the battle cry of my favorite president: America first. Woah! That’s radical. Woah! America first. That’s controversial — in Cuba” Ted Nugent

Quote II

“Just like dogs, cats, and human beings, chickens feel pain and fear and value their own lives,” ..... “one that celebrates chickens as individuals, not as beings to kill, chop up, and label as ‘dinner.’” PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman

Quote III

“It’s amazing in this day and age, that if you confront Antifa — which is essentially a domestic terror organization — that social media platforms will ban you,” Joe Biggs

Quote IV

But there is a bright side. I’ve learned how to stand up for myself, and I leave the campus with much thicker skin – and a clearer understanding of my own convictions. As I embark on a career, I can thank St. Olaf College for an education that made me stronger, tougher, and more resilient. I hope students like me keep going there, keep challenging the status quo, and keep fighting for the education they deserve. Even if they don’t get it, the lessons they do learn will surely prepare them for real life.Kathryn Hinderaker

Quote V

What can Oberlin do to reclaim its better self? That’s ultimately a question for the college’s trustees, faculty, alumni and students. But there is a common-sense answer that would probably seem obvious to most anyone in Lorain County or any of a thousand smaller communities around the country: Pay the court’s judgment, don’t fight it; apologize to the Gibson family and to the community and take steps to show you mean it; and then calmly think through all that has happened and do whatever is necessary to reaffirm the institution’s identity as a college, not a cause. S. Frederick Starr

My guess? He is going to need more than the care of God.

Self-made billionaire, Chris Cline, dead in helicopter crash.

The accident that also claimed the life of his daughter, took place on Thursday night when the crash was discovered two miles off his private island Grand Cay. A self-made billionaire, Cline died one day short of his 61st birthday.

Governor Jim Justice broke the news: “Today we lost a WV superstar and I lost a very close friend. Our families go back to the beginning of the Cline empire - Pioneer Fuel. Chris Cline built an empire and on every occasion was always there to give. What a wonderful, loving, and giving man.”

They hate you us!

In the scant two-and-a-half years since his inauguration, on every field, from national security, to economics, to domestic policy, to our global standing, the 45th president has proven that not only are we a great nation but that we are again the greatest nation on the Earth. That is what the Left hates him. But they hated you first because you believed it too and you made his victory possible.

Savor that thought today, as you celebrate our Republic and as the those who loathe America stew in their own bile.

Happy Independence Day America.
