Another weekend in the country with lousy wi-fi

I believe in "freedom of the press", but this is carrying it a bit too far...To compare Trump to Hitler ? If I were Trump I would look into the possibility of a slander lawsuit. Being a "writer" doesn't give you "writers priviledge" to slander someone just because you, personally don't like him. Seeing who we have to choose from, He's still #1 on my voting list

This is how fascism takes hold: The media is turning Donald Trump into just another candidate
Salon       NEAL GABLER1 day ago

There is no sense in mincing words, even at the risk of sounding alarmist: Donald Trump is an existential threat to American democracy. Andrew Sullivan, in his much-discussed essay in New York Magazine, said as much, calling Trump “an extinction-level event.”
Robert Kagan, writing in The Washington Post, concurred. His piece was titled: “This Is How Fascism Comes to America.”

A few exerpts from the article below
//////////////////////////////////////////////////

And those are neoconservatives. Others who are normally temperate and cautious also have weighed in with the same idea.
This is their existential moment, as well as ours. Normalizing Trump is almost certainly the only way he can be elected because it gives voters the license to cast their ballots for him and for their blackest impulses. I wonder if these executives are asking themselves what they would have done had they been running the media in Weimar Germany when Hitler was on the rise.
 

///////////////////////////////////////////////////

[Network news has] been treating Trump not as a demagogue, or as the strangest and most dangerous individual ever to be nominated by a major American party, but as just another candidate.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I realize that Hitler comparisons are the cheapest political currency, not to mention that they are almost always misguided and wrong. Comparing anyone to Hitler immediately empties the argument. But if Trump isn’t Hitler — for one thing, Hitler was, unfortunately, programmatic; Trump is not — this may nevertheless be America’s Hitler moment as well as its existential one, the moment when Trump is either ostracized or normalized.

It’s a Zoo, Not Chuck-E-Cheese

Todd Starnes   Posted: May 31, 2016

 

Zookeepers in Cincinnati had a split-second decision to make: spare a gorilla – or save a four-year-old child.
It appears that many animal rights activists and Hollywood celebrities believe the zoo made the wrong choice.
The child was saved. The gorilla was shot.
The ensuing outrage is beyond belief. Tens of thousands have signed petitions – demanding the parents be charged.
The hashtag gorilla lives matter trended on Twitter.

Rush Limbaugh Hails Trump's Media Bashing

Radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh Tuesday cheered Donald Trump's attacks on the media at a news conference about the $5.6 million he said he raised for veterans' groups, asking, "How many years have people been begging for a Republican to just once take on the media the way Trump did?"
"He took 'em all on," Limbaugh said, according to a transcript of his afternoon talk show. "How it is that Trump is succeeding in getting a bunch of people that literally hate him to help him out? It's
fascinating."READ MORE

"All they can do is try to destroy Trump, but they don't know how," he added. "Because they didn't make Trump, they can't destroy Trump."

Obama Spit On Veterans’ Graves By Doing This In Japan 

Maybe you missed it but Obama did one of the most despicable things in his entire elected history just a few days ago while in Japan.
In a whirlwind tour of the Far East President Obama decided he need to take our country down yet another peg or two, or three.  
HE SAID.....
     “Seventy-one years ago on a bright cloudless morning, death fell from the sky and the world was changed,” Obama said. “A flash of light and a wall of fire destroyed a city, and demonstrated that mankind possessed the means to destroy itself.”
   “We come to ponder the terrible force unleashed in the not so distant past,” the president went on to say. “We come to mourn the dead, including over 100,000 Japanese men, women and children, thousands of Koreans, a dozen Americans held prisoner. Their souls speak to us.”
    Obama went on to say “we’re not bound by genetic code to repeat the mistakes of the past. We can learn. We can choose.”

When blacks are protesting and demanding ALL statues, memorials, flags, etc. from the Confederacy be removed because they remind them of slavery and hangings then WHY would they want a memorial to slavery ? wouldn't that also remind them of slavery and hangings ? I find this memorial OFFENSIVE and think it should be taken down. Are blacks a bunch of PANSIES ? The Italians and Irish were also enslaved but you don't hear THEM crying and protesting over something that happened a couple hundred years ago. They want reparations (free money) for something done to their ancestors. Why don't they go to Africa, find the ancestors who SOLD them into slavery and demand that they pay them reparations. They would be laughed out of the country.....

Millions Who Were Killed and Sacrificed in Slave Trade To Create America’s Riches

March 26, 2015 | Posted by Nick Chiles

  

Visitors to the United Nations headquarters in New York will get a powerful reminder of the brutality of the transatlantic slave trade and its enormous impact on world history through a visually stunning new memorial that was unveiled yesterday in a solemn ceremony.
There were speeches intended to touch the emotionality of a system that operated for hundreds of years, killing an estimated 15 million African men, women and children and sending millions more into the jaws of a vicious system of plantation slavery in the Americas.
U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called slavery “a stain on human history.”

Along the U.S.-Canadian border, frayed ties and daily hassles

Washington Post · 1 hour ago

© William Marsden/For The Washington Post Along this 620-yard stretch of Highway 247, called Canusa Street in Vermont and Rue Canusa in Quebec, the border runs more or less down the middle of the street…

STANSTEAD, Quebec — For some folks living in a cluster of small towns straddling the U.S.-Canadian border here, life could not feel more comfortably secure.

Six Canadian and U.S. checkpoints service the 21/2-mile stretch of frontier that cuts through the villages of Derby Line and Beebe Plain, both in Vermont, and the town of Stanstead, in Quebec. Street cameras, satellite and sensor surveillance, vehicle patrols, and the occasional thumping helicopter overhead ensure that residents can’t budge without someone watching.

It’s no wonder that many don’t bother to lock their doors.

Glenn Beck SUSPENDED Immediately for what he said about TRUMP on air

Written by The Analytical Economist on May 31, 2016

For the last several months, conservative talk show host Glenn Beck has been dealing with some negative press. As a fervent Ted Cruz supporter, Beck seemed to publicly melt down as Cruz’s presidential prospects dimmed. Beck smeared his face with Cheetos. Then there was the announcement that his company was laying off 40 workers and losing money hand over fist as his media empire appeared to be crumbling.

Now he may just have hammered in the last nail over comments he made about Donald Trump on air.

SiriusXM has announced a temporary one-week suspension of Beck’s radio program. As Breitbart reported; Sirius issued a statement that “comments recently made by a guest on the independently produced Glenn Beck Program, in our judgement, may be reasonably construed by some to have been advocating harm against an individual currently running for office, which we cannot and will not condone. For that reason, we have suspended The Glenn Beck Program from our Patriot channel for the coming week and are evaluating its place in our lineup going forward.”

The suspension is in response to the interview Beck did with fiction author Brad Thor last Wednesday, in which Thor likened the GOP’s presumptive nominee Donald Trump to a South American-style dictator who would cause an “extinction-level event” for the country if elected. Thor then declared that in such a case, Congress would not be able to remove Trump from office by “legal means” through impeachment, so Thor asked “what patriot will step up and do that” if Trump oversteps his Constitutional restraints. Beck agreed with Thor’s assessment.

It was widely interpreted that Beck was condoning the assassination of Trump. Considering that Beck can’t seem to go a day without comparing Trump to Adolf Hitler, it wouldn’t be a stretch to interpret his comments this way.

Will this be the end of Glenn Beck’s career? We shall see.

Wes Criddle· Mineola, TX ·

The US has entered into a contract with a real estate firm to sell 56 buildings that currently house U.S. Post Offices. All 56 were built, operated, and paid f...or by tax-paying American citizens. Now enjoy reading the rest: The government has decided it no longer needs these buildings, most of which are located on prime land in towns and cities across the country.

The sale of these properties will fetch about$19 billion!
A regular real estate commission will be paid to the company that was given the exclusive listing for handling the sales. That company is CRI and it belongs to a man named Richard Blum.
Richard Blum is the husband of Senator Dianne Feinstein!(Most voters and many of the government people who approved the deal have not made the connection between the two because they have different last names).
Senator Feinstein and her husband stand to make a fortune, estimated at between $950 million and $1.1 BILLION from these transactions!
His company is the sole real estate agent on the sale!
CRI will be making a minimum of 2% and as much as 6% commission on each and every sale. All of the properties that are being sold are all fully paid for. They were purchased with U.S. taxpayers’ dollars.
The U.S.P.S. is allowed free and clear, tax exempt use. The only cost to keep them open is the cost to actually keep the doors open and the heat and lights on. The United States Postal Service doesn't even have to pay county property taxes on these subject properties. QUESTION? Would you put your house in foreclosure just because you couldn't afford to pay the electric bill?
Well, the folks in Washington have given the Post Office the OK to do it! Worse yet, most of the net proceeds of the sales will go back to the U.S.P.S, an organization that is so poorly managed that they have lost $117 billion dollars in the past 10 years!
No one in the mainstream media is even raising an eyebrow over the conflict of interest and on the possibility of corruption on the sale of billions of dollars worth of public assets.
How does a U.S. Senator from San Francisco manage to get away with organizing and lobbying such a sweet deal ? Has our government become so elitist that they have no fear of oversight?
It's no mere coincidence that these two public service crooks have different last names; a feeble attempt at avoiding transparency in these type of transactions.

If this doesn't upset you, don't complain about the corruption and the ineptness in D.C.

One of the big news stories this week is the outrage by the loony left after a gorilla was shot at the Cincinnati Zoo in an attempt to rescue a child that fell into the enclosure

As you might imagine, liberals everywhere were outraged about the gorilla and could care less about the human child. Not surprising though, considering how much they just seem to adore murdering the unborn in the womb.

However, one of the more ridiculous outcries to come from folks was that the killing of the gorilla was racist and was about saving a “white kid.”
Yes, the ridiculous myth of white privilege reared it’s ugly head, but there’s just one problem......

DHS INSIDER Just BLEW THE WHISTLE on OBAMA – Our WORST FEARS, CONFIRMED!    May 29, 2016

An officer at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) just exposed the Obama White House in a huge way. He’s furious that Obama received critical intelligence about the islamic terrorist attack in San Bernardino, California but ignoredThis is outrageous, and now Obama is exposed in this bombshell new report:

An officer at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) just exposed the Obama White House in a huge way. He’s furious that Obama received critical intelligence about the islamic terrorist attack in San Bernardino, California but ignored it.

The case drew the “concern” of the State Department and the DHS’s Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Office. Not because it alerted frontline officers to a threat to the nation’s security, but because the Obama administration believed it unfairly singled out Muslims.

To the astonishment of Haney and many of his colleagues at the National Targeting Center – which provides background and actionable intelligence to Customs and Border Protection agents – the Obama administration ultimately shut down the case.

The intelligence was ignored despite having been used to connect members of the movement to terrorist organizing and financing at the highest levels, including for Hamas and al-Qaida.
In addition, 67 records of individuals and organizations linked to the case that Haney had compiled were completely eliminated by orders from “upper management.” via WND

The Nanny State Groweth: NYC to Start Issuing Salt Fines to Restaurants  Leah Barkoukis  May 29, 2016

If you thought the war on sugary drinks in New York City was bad enough, the Big Apple will now be cracking down on another apparent evil: salt.

After getting the green light from an appeals court this week, the city will start enforcing that chain restaurants use icons on their menus to warn customers if foods are salty.

The good news for freedom-lovers is that the appeals court's ruling isn't necessarily the final word on whether the regulation will stand.
The Associated Press reports

The novel rule took effect in December, and some eateries already have added the requisite salt-shaker-like icons to menu items that contain more salt than doctors recommend ingesting in an entire day.

But penalties have been in limbo as the National Restaurant Association fights the measure in court. That clash is ongoing, but an appeals court Thursday lifted a temporary hold on issuing the fines while the case plays out. Fines can be up to $600.
The city will start enforcing the rule June 6.

Of course Mayor Bill de Blasio loves the new rule, calling it a “common sense regulation that will help New Yorkers make better decisions and lead healthier lives.”
And while the city won the first part of the lawsuit in February, the restaurant association appealed, and they are hoping New York will delay enforcement until the appeal is settled.
"Today's decision ... will force the men and women that own New York City's restaurants to start complying with this unlawful and unprecedented sodium mandate before the court has the chance to rule on the merits of our appeal," the organization said in a statement.
The association argues that nutritional warnings should be left up to federal regulators, especially given that there’s disagreement among scientists over excessive salt intake levels. On top of that, the group is also saying the new rule violates the free speech rights of restaurateurs. 

Memorial Day Tribute “Mansions of the Lord”

A haunting tribute from the Hillsdale College choir.

On this Memorial Day weekend, we remember those who sacrificed their lives for “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who are grieving. May we, as Abraham Lincoln famously said, “highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain–that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom–and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

LOOK: NASCAR Pokes Fun at NC Bathroom Law  Cortney O'Brien May 29, 2016

  NASCAR has a sense of humor.

CHARLOTTE - Signs on the porta-potties in the parking lot at the Coca-Cola 600 NASCAR race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina on Sunday poked fun at the ongoing controversy in the state--and the nation--over a bathroom law that requires people to use public restrooms that correspond to their biological gender. 
Take a look:

North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory is in attendance and received a mostly warm welcome and cheers from the crowd.
Update: The signs were removed. 

Obama's eight-year War on Normal is nothing new, but last night the Congress hit an all-time low.

Obama and his demented liberal colleagues in the Congress and elsewhere have been ceaselessly trying to homosexualize and feminize every aspect of the American experience (including, sadly, our military), and to strip every reference to God from public life.

And if the truth be known, they've had great success, thanks in large part to the high number of cowardly and outright dishonest Republicans who express strong, conservative, Judeo-Christian viewpoints on the campaign trail, but somehow lose all of their political testosterone on the way to the Capital to cast votes.

But last night the House actually voted to forbid Jewish and Christian companies from doing business with the federal government because of their moral beliefs in matters of human sexuality!

And they did it with the Vichy votes of dozens of limp-wristed, turncoat RINOs, Republicans In Name Only.  Another sickening, immoral surrender by a Congress supposedly controlled by REPUBLICANS.

A Scary, Real World Example Of Why You Need To Prepare For When The SHTF

People accuse preppers of being panic stricken people, focused on the negative, and prone to exaggeration. Like all groups of people there are certainly some preppers who fit negative stereotypes. But the vast majority of people who are interested in prepping are simply realists who have studied history and deal with reality.
Stop for just a moment and think about the current election in America. Bernie Sanders, an open socialist, has come on surprisingly strong against Hillary to vie for the Democratic Party nomination for President. Couple that with people pushing for increasing the minimum wage to the point where they are pricing themselves out of jobs, as is essentially happening at 6,000 Wendy’s restaurants at the time of this writing, and you have a serious strong push towards an economic policy (socialism) that could seriously have devastating consequences in the United States.
