“Can only be one person…” Donald Trump’s In London Town

Modern city, late 20th century: dozens killed, mobs in the street, hundreds of fires, widespread looting, and troops called out after a week to restore order, all because some career perp thug got thumped on. And you’re going to deal with that x1,000? Sh’yeah right. Best wishes with that plan. Send me a postcard. Raconteur Report: Once More, Harder

File Under: “I done tol’ you dat bitch was crazeee!”What we call Progressivism has curdled into a feminist cult. Maybe it was always thus, but not always obvious, and the election made it plain. Maybe the election was a triggering event. Either way, the Left is now just angry women who can’t get past the fact Hillary Clinton lost the election. To cope with this, they have concocted a number of fantasies about why it happened. The most obvious one involves Boris and Natasha colluding with Trump.

What did Ruth Bader Ginsburg mean when she referred to “populations that we don’t want to have too many of”? In New York City, thousands more black babies are aborted than born alive each year, and the abortion rate among black mothers is more than three times higher than it is for white mothers. According to a city Health Department report released in May, between 2012 and 2016 black mothers terminated 136,426 pregnancies and gave birth to 118,127 babies. By contrast, births far surpassed abortions among whites, Asians and Hispanics.

Chait’s drool-cup doth runneth over: What If Trump Has Been a Russian Asset Since 1987? “But the flowchart is amazing. Please, Mr. Chait – do a similar story on Barack Obama / Putin / Medvedev -open mic – tell Putin to give me space / Indonesia / Hawaii / Harvard / Chicago / H. Clinton / Bill Ayers / company after company / country after country / world tour as impoverished student / Africa / brothers / Valerie Jarrett / millions for ACA programming / millions more as programming doesn’t work / meetings with billionaires / B. Clinton / and so much more.”

More headline felonies: ” ‘Woman beats a 91-year-old Mexican man with a brick, tells him to “go back to your country”‘” WaPo wrote this headline purposely to lead people to believe the attacker was perhaps a white Trump supporter because the comments under the social media post were full of unhinged leftists blaming Trump.

I sure hope they’ve got a bit more than this nothingburger when it comes to identifying and stopping assassins. Secret Service rolls out new ways to identify and stop student attackers  “In the operational guide, the Secret Service says there is no profile for a student attacker. It could be male or female. It could be a good student or someone who struggles academically. It could be someone who is a loner, or well-liked.”

The Shock of Recognition: Watching the strange eyes of disgraced FBI agent Peter Strzok responding to Trey Gowdy’s questions this morning at the House Judiciary Committee Hearings I  thought “This soul? Demonic Possession?”

No, no, no. Let her rock and roll her way to oblivion:   African-American Leaders on Capitol Hill Demand Speaker Ryan Censure Maxine Waters   Maxine “is the unchallenged face of the Democratic Party,” [There’s a thought.

More like a dwindling 20% at best.] As such, he “encourages her to respect our liberty and issue a retraction” to her call to followers to harass Trump supporters.

Reading the details of the story under this “Piled Up” headline you understand that he bought the tickets in a block for himself and his friends and was repaid by said friends. Seems to me this method of buying tickets to get the discounted bulk price and the frequent flyer miles is pretty common throughout the known human universe.

    The whole group in the photo looks thuggish and debased.

    Slowly tuning back into the news after being on vacation/work for 3 plus weeks. That’s the FBI guy who hosed his whole bureau with the excremental text?

    I just think it bears repeating that the FBI, after the nightmarish shit they’ve pulled in the past handful of years, are a pack of armed and authorized seditionists. Only some were bad, you say? I think not; I assert the whole organization is peppered with agents who will shoot you for wrongthink if the circumstances line up. The head guy Trump fired is possibly more evil than the entire cast of Watergate put together.

    Watch your six.

    Apart from the fact that the Nats are just barely at .500, there’s nothing wrong in Kavanaugh’s purchasing a block of tickets to go with friends see them play. They could use some more fans now that Krauthammer’s gone. And any justice who likes baseball (and has friends who go to games with him) has to be a good guy in other ways.

    Folks, this may not be the place to post this, but I couldn’t find anywhere else. “Ol’ Remus” at The Woodpile Report has this update entry on his website, posted last night:

    I’m deeply humbled by your prayers and notes of well wishes. My sincere thanks. Wish I could answer each email. Too many. And I’m too drugged up and spacey to manage it. Into O.R. Friday morning. “All out effort,” they say. All else has failed. I’ll stop here.

    Thanks Bill. Sad and distressing news. Prayers.

    I hate articles like the one in The Bridgehead (The Conscience of a Cuckservative). We’re supposed to hate RBG because she once said something that might be interpreted as favoring a reduction in the number of crack babies? If that is what she meant it may be the only intelligent thing ever to escape her mind. We should be practicing eugenics. I guess The Bridgehead writer would rather live under Idiocracy than take any reasonable action to reduce “growth in populations we don’t want to have too many of.”

  • Bunny July 13, 2018, 2:57 PM

    It is ironic that RBG referred to “growth in populations we don’t want to have too many of, ” considering her ethnicity and the history of eugenics. It’s always more of me, less of you, isn’t it?-an inversion of John 3:30, “He must increase, I must decrease,” or more of You, less of me. Don’t be evil.

  • Gordon Scott July 13, 2018, 7:21 PM

    It always comes down to eugenics for progressives. They are not immune to math. Well, some of them. They can calculate the long term effects of the policies they use to gain power. We can afford a welfare state, indefinitely, if we just kill off enough of the welfare recipients.

  • Hound of the Times New Romans July 13, 2018, 9:37 PM

    Mr. Bunny and Mr. Scott,

    Eugenics is not “killing off” anyone, as you simplistically put it. Encouraging selective breeding for health and intelligence is perfectly reasonable, except to Bible-thumping ideologues.

    Given your mentality, your reward will be to live on an even more overpopulated, dumbed down planet. Enjoy the fruits of your faux virtue signaling.

  • Bunny July 14, 2018, 3:02 AM

    Just how will that selective breeding be encouraged?
    “Davenport became the darling of the Eugenics movement, and secured funding for many projects including the Eugenics Records Office, which was designed to examine genetic records from hundreds of thousands of American families, even by grave robbing, to determine who had genetic stocks fit enough to breed. The ivory tower eugenics researchers then plotted whom among hundreds of thousands of families would be removed from history by positive law. With the ‘cutting edge research’ of Davenport and the main institutes for science, Indiana became the first state of 30 states to pass involuntary eugenics laws which would require forced sterilization on any that the state eugenics board would deem ‘feeble-minded’. To most of us this sounds like something out of 1984, but this is precisely what happened, in 1907! ”

    Apologizing in advance if this is a double post.
    Just how will “selective breeding” be encouraged? Who will be doing the selecting?

    On second thought, maybe human beings are animals, as opposed to vegetables or minerals, but although we can be beastly, we are not JUST animals. As to the Bible, lol, I don’t care, call me Thumper. It’s okay to be virtuous. And Idiocracy is only a movie.
