Hair

I don’t know about you, but every time I see Donald Trump on TV, no matter what he is doing or saying, my attention is drawn like a magnet to, of all things, his hair. I just can’t help it; it’s like it happens against my will. And I unwillingly submit to this negative subliminal message – his hairstyle makes him look like a dufus. It detracts from his appearance. It detracts from his message. It detracts from his credibility. It’s embarrassing.

It’s so unnecessary. Trump is a handsome man. Maybe the two beautiful women in his life who he loves and trusts the most, wife Melania, and daughter Ivanka, should take him aside together, sit him down, and gently suggest to him that the 1970’s was 45 years ago now. He’s been wearing his hair in the same style for more than 45 years. It’s time for a change. It looked good on him then. But now he’s 70 years old. He would benefit enormously today with a more clean-cut conservative look.  

So I looked and found this picture on the Internet. This is what Mr. Trump could look like if he only found the courage to take the plunge, and tell his barber to go for it. He would look great and when he appeared to the public I know it would cause a positive sensation. His fans would love it. Even his detractors would grudgingly have to admit that it actually makes him look presidential. I honestly think that a lot more people would vote for him if he simply changed his hopelessly out of date hairstyle. The negative subliminal message (dufus) would disappear. The unwilling obsession with his hair would be gone.

Just do it, Donald! Your political fortune might depend on it. 

The air conditioners are coming

Forget about ISIS. Forget about Al-Qaida. Forget about all the savage Islamic terrorists. The air conditioners are coming. Yes, dear readers, what is even more life threatening – what you have to fear the most -- is the army of air conditioners and refrigerators.  They’re out to get you. They’re going to kill you.   

Do you think I’m joking? Well, I’m not joking. That’s what United States Secretary of State John Kerry warned in all seriousness while in Vienna Austria last week working to amend the 1987 Montreal Protocol that would phase out hydro-fluorocarbons (HFCs) from those common appliances.  Air conditioners and refrigerators are as big of a threat to life as the threat of terrorism posed by groups like the Islamic State.

“As we were working together on the challenge of [ISIS] and terrorism,” said Kerry. “It’s hard for some people to grasp it, but what we–you–are doing here right now is of equal importance because it has the ability to literally save life on the planet itself.” This is spoken from a powerful rich man who has never gone without air conditioners and refrigerators during all his pampered and privileged life.

He doesn’t mention that air conditioners and refrigerators are probably the greatest invention since the wheel. Together, they have enhanced and saved more lives than just about any other invention I can think of. Can you imagine your life without air conditioners and refrigerators?

I can’t; and John Kerry can’t either. He’ll always enjoy the benefits of his air conditioners and refrigerators. I’m sure he has a lot more than one of each in his many homes and motor vehicles. He just wants to make them more expensive so the poor folks can’t have them and the middle class would be forced to sacrifice in order to keep them.

It’s been 95 degrees plus Fahrenheit this week in Philadelphia where the air conditioners and refrigerators have been running at full blast to keep all the hypocrite Democrat climate change hoaxers like John Kerry cool and well fed in their hotel rooms and at the Wells Fargo Center during the Democrat National Convention. They like ice in their drinks and they don’t like to break into a sweat.

It just goes to show you how much they really care about the “threat” of the air conditioners coming to end their precious privileged lives.

Statist politicians are a menace to society

I don’t know why people tolerate these perennial scumbags. You know; all those statist politician parasites on the planet who’ve been feeding off our blood sweat and tears – spoiling the liberty, property and happiness of humanity -- since the beginning of civilizations. 

They’re a menace to society. They ruin businesses; wreak havoc upon commerce and prosperity; tell us what we can and can’t do with our lives; interfere constantly and incessantly with our wellbeing. The meddling never ends.

Consider for example the United States House of Representatives. They just passed a bill which will cost Boeing aircraft company, its employees, shareholders, and yes, the people of the United States of America; you and me, $25 billion dollars in valuable international business.

The company just reached a lucrative deal with Iran Airlines for the sale of several passenger planes. We’re not talking about war planes here just passenger planes. But the statist politicians in Washington want to kill that deal. They don’t want any Americans to do business with Iran. They don’t care if that results in other countries – Russia perhaps – getting the benefits. After all, it’s not money out of their pockets. It’s simply politics which will hurt Boeing and the rest of us.

Or how about the new mayor of the city of Turin Italy; she tells the hapless inhabitants under her jurisdiction what they should and should not eat. That’s right. This statist politician doesn’t like meat. She’s a vegetarian. So she thinks that since she’s been elected mayor that gives her the authority to dictate what her subjects eat.

Can you imagine that; a mayor who claims authority over eating habits? Sure you can. New York mayor Michael Bloomberg claimed exactly the same authority over the citizens of his town.

Turin’s new Mayor Chiara Appendino and her anti-establishment Five Star Movement is advocating for plant-based foods as an alternative to the authentic meat dishes that have inspired cooking in northern Italy for centuries. 

The 32-year-old statist pledged that the promotion of vegetarian and vegan diets will be a “priority” in her administration -- an unprecedented move in Italian government. 

No more spaghetti and meatballs in her town.

“The promotion of vegan and vegetarian diets is a fundamental act in safeguarding our environment, the health of our citizens and the welfare of our animals,” explains her five-year political manifesto. Her administration plans to work to educate the city’s school children about the drawbacks of meat consumption in hopes of leaving a lasting impression on future generations to come.

Yes, just more proof that statist politicians are a menace to society

TSA thugs brutalize mentally disabled terrified teen

Take a good long look at this picture. See for yourself what TSA airport security goons – United States government thugs – did recently to this innocent mentally disabled terrified teenager at Memphis International Airport. They put their menacing hands on her. She panicked and reflexively resisted. So they beat her bloody. That’s what they do. They use violence first and ask questions later.

Hannah Cohen was with her mother and on her way to undergo treatment for a brain tumor when she encountered her uniformed airport assailants. The security checkpoint metal detector sounded as she passed through so the thugs led their terrified victim away for additional screening.

 “They wanted to do further scanning, (but) she was reluctant — she didn’t understand what they were about to do,” said her mother, Shirley Cohen, who tried in vain to explain to them that her 19-year-old daughter is partially deaf, blind in one eye, paralyzed and easily confused, but police kept her away from the security agents. 

That prompted the frightened and confused victim to panic and try to run away so the goons wrestled her violently to the hard ground. “She’s trying to get away from them, but in the next instant, one of them had her down on the ground and hit her head on the floor,” mom explains. “There was blood everywhere.”

The thugs weren’t finished with their victim just yet. She was arrested and booked into jail. When they finally realized the gravity of their mistake, too late as it were, all charges were dropped and she was eventually released.

A lawsuit is pending against the goons. Naturally, their representatives aren’t talking. That’s because what they did to that girl was indefensible. A TSA spokesperson said passengers should notify agents ahead of time if they have special needs. “Passengers can call ahead of time to learn more about the screening process for their particular needs or medical situation,” she explained.

Well, that’s good to know. But it hardly would have prevented this incident as these government goons have violence imprinted upon their genes. They’ve not been trained to listen to explanations which might mitigate their compulsive aggressive tendencies. The mother tried to tell them. They don’t listen to mothers. They don’t practice restraint.

They just brutalize mentally disabled terrified teens.

Gagged!

If anyone is unsure or still undecided on the question of whether Hillary Clinton’s legal problems were “fixed” by President Obama’s Department of Justice and the FBI this latest development should convince you once and for all that political corruption is involved at the highest levels of government and the stench of it all is permeating the nation.

FBI director James Comey has gagged his agents to prevent them from telling us the whole truth about Clinton’s crimes and exactly why and how she’s escaping justice.  

Clinton’s husband, former President of the United States, Bill Clinton, arranged a clandestine private meeting with Coney’s boss, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, just days before Comey announced that Hillary was off the hook. When reporters discovered the meeting Clinton and Lynch’s FBI and secret service bodyguard sycophants ordered them away from the spot and not to take any pictures.

Why? Well, because Clinton and Lynch had something to hide and didn’t want inquisitive reporters documenting their “secret” meeting. That’s when Bill Clinton got the news that the fix was in and he could tell his wife that the coast was clear. That’s when Loretta Lynch was told what would happen to her if Hillary were indicted.

Only hours before director Comey went on TV to tell the world that no one outside his bureau knew what his decision and recommendations were regarding Hillary Clinton – whether or not she would be charged with felonies -- Hillary Clinton was on Air Force One with president Obama on their way to a political event where the incumbent President was set to endorse her candidacy as next President of the United States.

Why? How did they know that the coast was clear and that Hillary’s legal problems had been fixed? Well, they know it because the fix was in and they were both part of the fix. President Obama would never have taken the chance to endorse Hillary Clinton then unless he knew for certain that the fix was in.

And now those who know all the facts and the truth about exactly what went down have been gagged. Every FBI agent who worked the case, and there were hundreds of them, was forced to sign a brand new form, entitled “Case Briefing Acknowledgment,” to affirm that they cannot talk about what they know.

“This is very, very unusual. I’ve never signed one, never circulated one to others,” said one retired FBI chief. “I have never heard of such a form; Sounds strange,” a current FBI agent admitted. Many of them have covertly expressed their disappointment over their boss’s decision to let Hillary go free. “FBI agents believe there was an inside deal put in place after the Loretta Lynch/Bill Clinton tarmac meeting,” said one anonymous source. Another source from the Justice Department was “furious” with Comey, saying he’s “managed to piss off right and left.”

Sadly for us, and for our country, they can’t talk openly about it now.

They’re gagged!

Federal judicial pig grows wings and flies in Richmond

OK, I was wrong. Tom Knapp was right.

Last month I posted my humble legal opinion that a Dump Trump advocate from Virginia was hallucinating when he filed a federal lawsuit seeking to strike down a state law binding him to vote on the first ballot at the GOP convention for the winner of the Virginia primary – Donald Trump.

Tom challenged my assessment. I offered to make a wager that the lawsuit was frivolous and would be dismissed. I lose. Congratulations! You should have bet me, Tom.

U.S. District Judge Robert Payne in Richmond said the Virginia state law creates “a severe burden” on First Amendment rights. That’s right. A judicial pig grew wings and took to the sky in Richmond. Virginia cannot require GOP convention delegates to do what they were delegated to do; honor their pledge to primary voters who elected Donald Trump, said Payne.

The GOP Virginia primary voters apparently have no First Amendment rights – their votes don’t count -- but the delegates who promised to do their will in the primary election enjoy a First Amendment right to stiff them and do as they please. The result of the primary election sponsored by the State of Virginia is meaningless.  The winner, Trump, has won nothing. The primary was a sham according to Judge Payne.

Why even conduct a primary election at all if the delegates aren’t really delegates, but rather free agents who can simply disregard the election results and vote at the convention for anyone they like? This judge just gave the delegates a judicial license to defraud the Virginia Republican primary voters.

I don’t know if there is enough time left to appeal this bizarre decision, but for the sake of justice I hope it is appealed. For now, however a federal judicial pig has grown wings and flies in Richmond.  

Consequences of criminal incompetence

FBI director James Comey and his army of G-men have discovered a mountain of evidence indicating  beyond any reasonable doubt that Democrat Party presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is a serially incompetent dishonest criminal having feloniously violated federal statutes prohibiting the mishandling of classified information during her tenure as U.S. Secretary of State. 

Democrat Clinton, however, won’t face trial and be convicted for her many crimes because Comey, U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and the Democrat Obama Administration have refused to prosecute her. That’s because, as I posted last week, the case against her has been Fixed! She’s guilty as sin but the fix is in.

This mind numbing revelation, startling as it is, has completely overshadowed the other mountain of additional evidence against Hillary Clinton recently reported by the U.S. House Select Committee on Benghazi indicating that the result of her criminal incompetence likely contributed to the cause of U.S. Libyan Ambassador Chris Steven’s tragic death at the hands of murderous Islamic terrorists on September 11, 2012

Hillary Clinton and her State Department knew all along that the security environment in Benghazi was precarious. Ambassador Stevens and his diplomatic compound were left virtually unprotected in the midst of a civil war with Benghazi serving as the home to the opposition and rebel forces.

The State Department’s own threat rating system considered Libya to be a grave risk to American diplomats. Despite all this, over 600 urgent requests by Stevens to Hillary Clinton and her State Department for additional security personnel and equipment at the compound were ignored or denied. Clinton simply didn’t care about Stevens’ predicament.

Yes, they were ignored by Hillary Clinton, but they most likely were not ignored by hostile actors who probably intercepted Steven’s communications and requests by hacking into Clinton’s unprotected private e-mail server. FBI director Comey indicated in his report that Clinton’s server was probably hacked.  Highly classified information on her unsecured server, including the itinerary and daily whereabouts of Ambassador Chris Stevens was easily available to any skilled hacker. That server was like an open book to hostile actors.

The latest Clinton e-mail disclosures include at least one document which pinpoints the whereabouts of Ambassador Stevens before the September 11, 2012 terrorist attack. How many other e-mails that Clinton deleted disclosed similar highly classified information? Those terrorists likely knew that Stevens was in the Benghazi compound when they initiated their deadly assault which left him dead.

Stevens’ tragic death is just one of the likely consequences of Hillary Clinton’s criminal incompetence.
