It's not a "Muslim ban"





And then:







..."President Trump is not suspending visas from countries his team selected, they are simply suspending visa approval from countries President Obama selected. Additionally, Trump is suspending ALL Visa applications from those countries - nothing to do with Muslim applications..."

Donald Trump turning GOP into "party of working men and women"



"The lengthy, public and early meeting with the union leaders was, among other things, first-class, primo political pocket-picking," she said. "The Trump White House was showing the Democratic Party that one of its traditional constituent groups is up for grabs and happy to do business with a new friend. It was also telling those Republicans too stupid to twig onto it yet that the GOP is going to be something it's actually been within living memory: the party of working men and women, a friend of those who feel besieged."

Vile: Women’s March Featured Speaker Who Kidnapped, Raped And Tortured A Man







...Hylton’s name is listed on the Women’s March website alongside prominent liberals like Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards, actress Gloria Steinem, filmmaker Michael Moore and CNN commentator Van Jones.

Hylton, along with three men and three other women, kidnapped 62-year-old real-estate broker Thomas Vigliarole and held him for ransom, before eventually killing him. As noted in a ◼ 1995 Psychology Today article, when asked about forcibly sodomizing the victim with a three foot steel pole, Hylton replied: “He was a homo anyway.”
For the next 15 to 20 days (police aren't sure just when Vigliarole died), the man was starved, burned, beaten, and tortured. (Even 10 years later, Spurling could recall Rita's chilling response when they questioned her about shoving a three-foot metal bar up Vigliarole's rear: "He was a homo anyway." How did she know? "When I stuck the bar up his rectum he wiggled.")

Spurling himself interviewed Donna: "I couldn't believe this girl who was so intelligent and nice-looking could be so unemotional about what she was telling me she and her friends had done. They'd squeezed the victim's testicles with a pair of pliers, beat him, burned him. Actually, I thought the judge's sentence was lenient. Once a jailbird, always a jailbird."

Speaking about Hylton, New York City Detective William Spurling told Psychology Today: “I couldn’t believe this girl who was so intelligent and nice-looking could be so unemotional about what she was telling me she and her friends had done. They’d squeezed the victim’s testicles with a pair of pliers, beat him, burned him.”

Busted: ABC News Apologizes ...



Former press secretary for President George W. Bush, Ari Fleischer, was interviewed by ABC News's “Nightline” and said he believes that Spicer did a good clean up job after the Saturday briefing:

“It looks to me if the ball was dropped on Saturday, Sean recovered it and ran for a first down.”

However, when ABC News aired the segment, part of Fleischer's quote was cut off, altering Fleischer's opinion:


“[Spicer’s Saturday] briefing made me uncomfortable. It was too truculent, too tough. It looks as if the ball was dropped on Saturday.”

After noticing the edit, Fleischer tweeted his original quote:



Then blasted ABC News for manipulating his quote and said, “If this is how the press reports, Trump is right to go after them”

Hours after Fleischer's tweets, ABC News released a correction to the story:

"Nightline aired a segment Monday night about the first three days of the new administration including Sean Spicer’s statement to the press on Saturday. As part of the report, we interviewed former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer. In editing the piece for air, his quote was shortened and as a result his opinions mischaracterized.

Will the Press cover #MarchForLife?







The MRC found that the big three broadcast networks (ABC, NBC, CBS) gave last year’s March for Life a grand total of 35 seconds of coverage on their evening and morning news programs. Despite a major winter storm bearing down on the nation’s capital (which would dump two feet of snow), tens of thousands came to show their support for the lives of the unborn....

ABC News was the only broadcast network to cover the event, with Good Morning America anchor George Stephanopoulos taking 13 seconds to say the event to “protest abortion” would take place despite the winter storm warnings. The network later briefly referenced a high school group having trouble getting back to Kentucky following the march due to the severe winter weather.

Gun owners across America have scored a significant victory! NRA Wins Victory as Congress Reverses Obama's Social Security Gun Grab

◼ The National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA) today scored a significant victory when Congress agreed to review a final rule by the Obama administration that would wrongly strip law-abiding Americans of their Second Amendment rights.

“Congress's decision to review the Obama administration's back-door gun grab is a significant step forward in restoring the fundamental constitutional rights of many law-abiding gun owners,” said Chris W. Cox, executive director, NRA-ILA. "The NRA has been fighting this unconstitutional government overreach since it was first discussed and we look forward to swift congressional action to overturn it." ...

Dam operators are gradually dialing back releases into the lower American River below Folsom Dam. That should allow the lake to rise again.



Folsom Dam operators say the low levels are necessary to protect Sacramento from flooding. With runoff from recent storms subsiding and forecasts of sunny skies through early next week, dam operators are gradually dialing back releases into the lower American River below Folsom Dam. That should allow the lake to rise again....

That’s small comfort for some local residents, such as Steve Clark, who grew tired of seeing their lake drained practically dry during California’s historic five-year drought.

Clark said he’s frustrated that the lake’s been reduced to an “ugly brown puddle,” and he’s worried that even with bountiful rain the lake won’t be allowed to fill this spring. He argues that draining Folsom Lake is bad for local property values, limits summer recreation and harms the region’s water supply....

Louis Moore, a spokesman for the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, which manages Folsom Dam, said he understands such complaints, but dam managers are required to keep space in the lake as a buffer to protect Sacramento from flooding.

"I will be asking for a major investigation into VOTER FRAUD"









Somewhere between 38,000 and almost 2.8 million non-citizens voted in the 2008 elections, according to a study published in Electoral Studies journal in 2014.

Old Dominion University professors Jesse Richman and David Earnest, the study’s co-authors, concluded that “some non-citizens participate in U.S. elections, and that this participation has been large enough to change meaningful election outcomes including Electoral College votes, and Congressional elections.”

Journos, Celebrities Falsely Claim ‘Fascism,’ ‘Censorship’ After National Park Tweets Taken Offline



Liberal journalists and celebrities praised the Badlands National Park’s brief moment of “defiance” against the Trump administration Tuesday when it published a series of tweets related to global warming.

When Badland’s tweets were taken down, journalists and actors decried the “fascist” Trump administration for censoring scientific facts.

Well, it turned out none of that was true. The National Park Service put out a statement claiming a former employee “compromised” its official Twitter account. The Park Service also said the Trump administration did not tell them to remove the tweets, and that it did it on its own....
