Hey UK police... management and government officials...at least let your everyday police officer carry weapons for self defense and defense of your citizens who have no 2nd Amendment rights to bear arms..
The real hit of President Donald Trump’s trip overseas may have
actually been the first lady. In almost every country she went to,
Melania Trump made big news, particularly for her fashion.
Nowhere was that more evident than when Melania took a picture with the other wives in NATO. As you can see, she’s the star of the room — and America knows it.
Now, the New York Post
reported that all of the designers who swore they wouldn’t dress the
first lady are “softening” to Melania Trump after her first round of
appearances.
As you can see from the picture, Melania Trump is clearly a commanding
presence, even among the many women who form the first wives of NATO. She also clearly outclassed the new first lady of France, Brigitte Trogneux.
As a photograph of Kathy Griffin hoisting the fake,
decapitated head of President Donald Trump swept the Internet this week
and led to her firing from CNN and the cancellation of at least one stop
on her current comedy tour, one celebrity is urging Americans not to
worry about it.
Jim Carrey told the audience at the premiere of his new Showtime comedy
series that Griffin should double down on the now-infamous photograph.
From Breitbart
“Hold up a severed leg as well,” he advised Griffin in a
speech at the event, according to People magazine. “I don’t know if it’s
funny, but I don’t think the joke is the problem. Don’t worry about it.
Don’t worry for your existence. All of this is meaningless… all of
creation is just God’s Fidget Spinner. It’s really not important. What’s
important is that we’re all here.”
The graphic photo of Griffin holding “Trump’s” head, taken during a
shoot by L.A.-based photographer Tyler Shields, sparked severe backlash
online and drew responses from the president and First Lady on
Wednesday. Griffin was fired from her role on CNN’s annual New Year’s
Eve Live broadcasts, and the Route 66 Casino in Albuquerque cancelled
the comedian’s scheduled performance there. The toilet accessories
company Squatty Potty also pulled its advertising campaign, in which
Griffin had starred.
Still, Carrey believes that in times of political turmoil, comedians
often become the only source of comfort and reassurance for concerned
citizens.
“I think what happens is, when these extraordinary times politically
happen, and we’re going through terror and the fear of the end, comics
are the last line of defense,” he told the audience. “We tell them the
truth, and we make something beautiful out of it.”
The 55-year-old actor made the comments at the premiere of the new
Showtime series I’m Dying Up Here, which follows a group of young,
up-and-coming comedians making their way in the comedy scene in 1970s
Los Angeles. Carrey serves as an executive producer and a writer on the
project.
“This is a labor of love,” he said at the event. “It was an idea that
was rolling around in my head for a long time, and I really wanted to
see the comedy world as it really was and the extraordinary experience
that I actually was lucky enough to have.”
On Wednesday, a Los Angeles judge ruled that a wrongful death case
against the actor — related to the 2015 overdose death of his
ex-girlfriend, makeup artist Cathriona White — could move forward.
White’s parents accused Carrey of supplying the prescription painkiller
medication on which the makeup artist overdosed.
The actor has vehemently denied the claims.
Comedian Kathy Griffin
pushed the envelope just a little too far this week when she released a
photo of herself holding a prop that was designed to resemble the
severed head of President Donald Trump.
The backlash to Griffin’s appalling stunt has been both widespread
and bipartisan. Even first lady Melania Trump, who has generally avoided
political fights, issued a blistering statement condemning Griffin’s
action, the U.K. Daily Mail reported.
“When you consider some of the atrocities happening in the world
today, a photo opportunity like this is simply wrong and makes you
wonder about the mental health of the person who did it,” read a
statement released by the first lady.
Ouch! That was just straight-up savage — and well-deserved.
Melania was undoubtedly outraged over this stunt because reports have indicated it deeply affected Barron Trump, Melania and Donald’s 11-year-old son.
TMZ reported that Barron was watching television when the image
came up, and it really freaked him out. He initially didn’t know it was
just a prank and ran screaming to his mother, according to the report.
No child should ever be forced to live through something like that, and both Trumps have every reason to be outraged over the pain this image caused their son. The Washington Post
noted that Melania Trump’s unusually harsh response is “in line” with
actions she has taken when her family, not just her husband, has been
attacked by liberals or by the media.
Trump showed the world
that you don’t mess with her family and get away with it. She may not
court the spotlight — and she may actively avoid it — but if she needs
to, she can be just as bold as her husband.
Maybe now people will think twice before attacking the Trump family — though we doubt it. The past few years have shown that liberals rarely learn from their mistakes.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said it was “theoretically possible”
that “patriotically minded” private Russian citizens could have taken
it upon themselves to interfere in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
“If they are patriotically minded, they start making their
contributions — which are right, from their point of view — to the fight
against those who say bad things about Russia,” Putin said Thursday.
The Russian president, however, insisted the Kremlin was not directly involved in any coordinated hacking efforts.
“We’re not doing this on the state level,” Putin said.
U.S. intelligence agencies in January assessed with high confidence that
the Russian president personally ordered an influence campaign in 2016
aimed at harming then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
But Putin has said repeatedly that neither he nor the Russian government had any direct involvement in the election.
He said independent hackers “are like artists” who select their targets depending on how they feel any given day.
Putin said he was concerned that modern technology could have
modified a hacker’s digital footprint to make it seem like the Kremlin
was the source of the attack.
“I can imagine that someone is doing this purposefully — building the
chain of attacks so that the territory of Russian Federation appears to
be the source of the attack,” Putin said.
“Modern technologies allow to do that kind of thing, it’s rather easy to do,” he added.
The Russian president said there’s no way an independent hacker could radically influence the outcome of a sovereign country’s election.
“I’m deeply convinced that no hackers can radically influence another
country’s election campaign,” he said. “No hackers can influence
election campaigns in any country of Europe, Asia or America.”
Putin said the perpetuation of “Russo-phobic hysteria” over election
hacking has made it difficult to maintain cordial relations with the
U.S.
“It’s having an impact, and I’m afraid this is one of the goals of
those who organize it are pursuing and they can fine tune the public
sentiments to their liking, trying to establish an atmosphere that is
going to prevent us from addressing common issues, say with regard to
terrorism,” Putin said. What do you think?Scroll down to comment below.
Hillary Clinton asked a top aide in 2011 whether she could fly
on a separate airplane from former first lady Michelle Obama to Betty
Ford’s funeral, according to a newly released email.
Judicial Watch released on Thursday more than 2,000 emails from
Clinton’s unauthorized private email server she used as secretary of
state. One of the documents revealed a conversation between Clinton and
then-Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin about how she would rather not
ride the same plane as Obama en route Ford’s funeral in Palm Desert,
Calif.
“I’d be honored to speak,” Clinton said in reference to Betty Ford’s
funeral. “Is it OK that we and Mrs. O take two separate planes?”
The recent email release allegedly shows Clinton
receiving and sending more classified information via her private
unsecured server. Many of the conversations revolve around the
individuals involved with the Clinton Foundation receiving favors from
Abedin.
From The Washington Examiner
Kathy Griffin is holding a press conference on Friday to
complain about the “bullying from the Trump family that she has endured”
following the release of a photo spread showing the comedian holding up
a bloodied head of President Trump.
Lisa Bloom, the daughter of famed feminist litigator Gloria Allred
and Griffin’s newly hired lawyer, made the shocking announcement on
Twitter.
From The Daily Caller
Bloom says that she and Griffin will “announce the true motivation” behind the photo shoot.
"Griffin has already suffered financially from the photo
spread. CNN dropped her as a host for its New Years Eve broadcast.
Squatty Potty, a company that sells toilet stools, also dumped Griffin.
Trump and several of his family members have responded to Griffin,
though nothing they’ve said would seem to constitute “bullying,” as
Bloom asserts.
Trump took to Twitter to respond to the photo."
First lady Melania Trump issued a statement blasting the 56-year-old Griffin.
“As a mother, a wife, and a human being, that photo is very
disturbing. When you consider some of the atrocities happening in the
world today, a photo opportunity like this is simply wrong and makes you
wonder about the mental health of the person who did it,” she said.
Griffin published a tweet saying she was sorry for posing for the photo, which was taken by photographer Tyler Shields.
President Trump's courageous decision to abandon the economically destructive Paris Global Warming Treaty has unleashed the fury of liberal HELL against the President.
If you listen to the news, you'd think that the President just signed
the death warrant for the entire world! Trump is being called a
"traitor." They say he has gone "rogue." The Pope called it a "slap in
the face." One German newspaper led with this headline: "Earth to Trump:
(Bleep) You." Elon Musk (who has built his entire empire on receiving
"green" money from the federal government) and other tech titans say
they won't work with Trump anymore.
The fact is, the President is doing the RIGHT THING and keeping his promise to DRAIN THE SWAMP and put AMERICA FIRST. The Paris boondoggle put America at a huge economic disadvantage and would have cost millions of U.S. jobs.
Now, the FURY OF LIBERAL HELL is coming against President Trump!
This
is by far the boldest decision President Trump has made and the
clearest indication that he is committed to DRAINING THE SWAMP and
PUTTING AMERICA FIRST! And now, the President needs our support!
+ + Tell The President You Support His Decision!
Grassfire is launching a "Bye, Bye Paris" petition to let President
Trump know that citizens across this country support his decision to
withdraw from the Paris Global Warming Boondoggle.
We
were forwarded an internal briefing from the White House which makes it
clear the Administration has been bracing for ENORMOUS PUSHBACK because
of this decision. That's why it is imperative that we respond.
Grassfire wants to deliver 50,000 petitions to the White House within 7 days, but to do so, we need your help.
Thanks for taking a stand and PUTTING AMERICA FIRST!
Steve Elliott, Grassfire
P.S. This is President Trump's boldest act yet to DRAIN THE SWAMP and
PUT AMERICA FIRST -- and the fury of liberal hell is being released
against him. If you stand with the President, sign here and we'll deliver your message to the White House.
The crushing economic ramifications of the Paris Global Warming Boondoggle:
--6.5 million lost American jobs
--Key industries crushed: iron and steel down 38%, coal down 86%, natural gas down 31%.
--$3 trillion cost to the economy in lost GDP
--$7,000 lost income per household
It didn’t take long for so-called comedian Kathy Griffin to realize
that, even with all of the anti-Trump sentiment swirling around our
country, no one found her photoshoot stunt very funny. In collaboration
with professional troll Tyler Shields, Griffin took pictures of herself
holding up the severed “head” of President Trump, with dark blood
running down the mask’s face. The photos, unmistakable in their
similarity to the shocking Islamic State videos, were published by TMZ
on Tuesday and were immediately the subject of intense backlash.
Before Griffin found her way clear to apologize, she tweeted: “I
caption this ‘there was blood coming out of his eyes, blood coming out
of his…wherever’ Also @tylershields great photog/film maker.”
A few minutes later, she wrote, “OBVIOUSLY I do not condone ANY
violence by my fans or others to anyone, ever! I’m merely mocking the
Mocker in Chief.”
Er, “mocking” usually involves humor of some kind. The caption she
tweeted bears some vague resemblance to humor with its reference to the
whole Megyn Kelly thing from last year, but the photographs themselves
are not funny in any possible sense of the word. You can despise Donald
Trump from the very depths of your soul and still see that this is
unacceptably vile. Think what you will of him, it’s not amusing in the
least to “joke” about killing the president of the United States – or
anyone else, really.
Late in the night – no doubt after liberals like Chelsea Clinton and
Griffin’s pal Anderson Cooper publicly registered their disgust over the
photos, the star (?) finally realized that there was no one beyond her
and Shields who found the pictures appropriate.
“I am sorry,” she said. “I went too far. I was wrong.”
The president himself weighed in on Griffin’s “art” with a tweet late
Tuesday. “Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself,” he wrote. “My
children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time
with this. Sick!”
So, it’s been pointed out a thousand times, but can you just imagine
what the backlash would be if she had done this with an Obama mask? She
would be shunned from mainstream society. There wouldn’t be a TV channel
in the WORLD that would have her on, even to apologize. You think
she’ll suffer any such consequences for this stunt? We get a
half-hearted “we’ll re-evaluate her role in our New Years’ Eve special”
statement from CNN, but we’ll bet you dollars to doughnuts that she’ll
be standing right beside
Cooper when the ball drops. Because who really
cares, right? It’s just Trump, a dirty Republican, right? Barely even
qualifies as a human being.
As foul as these photos are, we should probably be grateful every
time one of these liberal psychos forgets to wear their mask of civility
in public, because it lets your average, sit-the-fence Independent and
your average “I guess I’m a Democrat” voter know what the left is really
all about.
First lady Melania Trump
let loose her anger Wednesday over reality TV star Kathy Griffin’s
photo shoot that showed her holding a prop made to look like the severed
head of President Donald Trump.
“As a mother, a wife, and a human being, that photo is very
disturbing,” said the first lady, joining the rounds of condemnation
issued by the Trump family.
“When you consider some of the atrocities happening in the world
today, a photo opportunity like this is simply wrong and makes you
wonder about the mental health of the person who did it,” she added.
Although Griffin has apologized
for sharing the photo on social media, she has been roundly criticized —
even by some who vehemently dislike the president — for going too far.

“I work with Christians whose family members have been decapitated. @KathyGriffin is sick and disgusting,” Rev. Franklin Graham commented on Facebook and Twitter.
However, Tyler Shields, the photographer who took the image, said the fuss was to be expected. “That’s the beautiful thing
about stuff like this: there’s always going to be backlash. I think a
lot of people fear backlash,” he said. “I think there will be a lot of
people who will absolutely hate this, but again, that’s the beauty of
it. That’s the fun of making things. Am I saying that anyone should
actually be killed? No, it’s like a movie. How many movies are there
where the president gets killed or this happens? Tons upon tons.” “The great thing about making something like this is that, look, you
make it and people have their opinion on it and that’s the fun of it. A
compliment and an insult are the same thing; the insult just takes
longer to write,” he also said. What do you think?Scroll down to comment below.
During one of those glorious late-night Twitter tirades, the President
Of These Here United States -- one Donald J. Trump (suck on it forever, media) -- accidentally typed the following
Tuesday night, "Despite the constant negative press covfefe" -- and
then he stopped … and left us all hanging … for hours … while he slept
the dreamless sleep of a man who has no dreams left to come true. When
you're a billionaire snuggled up next to a supermodel in the White House
residence, what's left?
Meanwhile, the rest of the world tossed and turned. "What in the world is 'covfefe,'" we asked and asked
and Asked and ASKED? Well, Trump isn't talking. A few hours later,
while laughing maniacally (we assume), the President deleted his
already-famous "covfefe" tweet and replaced it with this: "Who can
figure out the true meaning of 'covfefe' ??? Enjoy!"
He then returned to the vital business of dismantling the legacy of
the man who illegally spied on him, specifically that stupid Paris
Climate agreement … which is stupid.
And then something pretty wonderful happened.
Suddenly all of America was in on the joke. For a few brief hours, even during the CNN-Star-Beheads-Trump
uproar, we all kind of came together -- left and right alike -- to
chuckle over "covfefe." Even Trump himself was enjoying the laughs at
his expense. What a strange thing it was to peer over the line of
scrimmage, lock eyes with the other side, and start laughing together
because we just couldn’t help it. It was a nice moment for America, a
coming together moment, a sign of hope that maybe we can all-- record scratch.
Oh my dear gawd Hillary just ruined everything again.
We have all been at a gathering of some sort where things have
loosened up, the conversation is easy, and everyone is having a good
time -- at least until someone who has no idea what you are all
chuckling over decides to pretend they are in on the joke. And so,
feeling more than a little resentful and left out, they loudly barge
into this easygoing situation to drop a big, fat, insecure stinkbomb.
And while they are laughing (all alone) at the turd they just dropped
in the punchbowl, everyone else is giving each other the side eye.
Yeah, that is exactly what Hillary did to all of America yesterday with this tweet:
Awkwaaaaaard.
Even though it doesn’t help, I'll still share the context with you...
As of Wednesday. Hillary had entered day 205 of her increasingly
pathetic "Boil The American Voters' Rabbit Tour" -- you know, where she
proves she can't handle rejection and won't to go away because "I'm not
going to be ignored, Dan" and becomes increasing maniacal… That tour?
Hillary is now on excuse numero ocho as to why she lost, and oddly
enough NOT EVER ONCE CAMPAIGNING IN WISCONSIN didn’t make the list.
For her epic humiliation, Hillary is blaming the same Russians she
gave our uranium to, the same FBI that refused to recommend she be
charged with crimes she committed, and the same Democrat National
Committee that rigged the primary against Bernie Sanders in her favor.
Trump responded to her latest boiled rabbit frenzy by reviving his
gorgeously accurate "Crooked Hillary" moniker…
Hillary then responded by barging into an America enjoying a rare shared laugh to drop that turd.
What a weak, divisive, insecure piece of work Hillary Clinton is.
But when nothing you've accomplished in life (which isn't all that
much to begin with) would have been possible had you not agreed to be
publicly and serially-humiliated by theman who made it all possible, you are almost always going to end up with a neurotic, bitter, paranoid Pantsuit Monster.

Men of good will can all agree with that sentiment. So how come men of
ill will then turn around and conflate those who oppose their subversion
as “haters”? (TriMet/Facebook)
“Attacks like Portland’s will keep happening unless we all fight white supremacy,” lawyer Arjun Singh Sethi writes in The Washington Post.
He was referring to accounts of multiple stabbings by a violent racist
that left two dead and one injured when they stepped in to intervene
against harassment of two teenage girls, one reportedly a Muslim. And,
as a wade through his opportunistic screed reveals, he’s dancing in the
blood to reinforce cherry-picked numbers
and advance the meme that “The greatest threat facing our country comes
from homegrown white supremacists, not Muslims or refugees.”
It happened in “progressive” Portland on a train where knives with blades over 3½ inches are banned
(law enforcement exempted, of course), and the stabbing victims appear
to have all been white. But if you ignore law being ignored and the
reality of who was actually injured, and just let Sethi control the
narrative, it feeds the real idea being promulgated — that it’s Donald
Trump’s fault:
“Hundreds of hate groups now champion white supremacy and
draw inspiration from President Trump, whose rhetoric and policies have
emboldened their nativism and prejudice.”
That, of course, means anyone who does not support open borders is a bigot and a xenophobe.
Much is made of the suspect’s Nazi sympathies, to further bolster the
“right wing extremist” smears against Americans who reject
“progressivism” and instead believe in government of limited powers as
delegated and enumerated in the Constitution. The glossed-over problem
with that: The Nazis were “National Socialists.” And while liars try to
refute that by pointing out how Hitler was bitter enemies with
communists, that struggle was over whose totalitarian vision and regime
would prevail.
“It is now clear beyond all reasonable doubt that Hitler and his
associates believed they were socialists, and that others, including
democratic socialists, thought so too. The title of National Socialism
was not hypocritical,” author George Watson documented in “Hitler and the Socialist Dream.” (By way of “credentials,” Watson
was a “scholar, literary critic, historian, a fellow of St John’s
College and professor of English at Cambridge University,” who, rather
than being some “far right” apologist, was also, incidentally, “an
active member of the Liberal Party [who] in his will … left £950,000 to
the Liberal Democrats.”)
If political and media opportunists really want to play the game of
blaming races and ideologies, plenty of counter-examples can be
provided, including the inconvenient truth that the alleged killer
appears to have been a Bernie Sanders supporter, and the only reason he’s glad Trump beat Hillary was “I take the fast poison over the slow any day.”
The reason for that blame game is obvious: A faction determined to
culturally terraform the Republic wants to establish political control
by using United States immigration policies to bring in foreigners who
can be placed on a “pathway to citizenship.” That’s because all reliable
indicators and experience shows that will give Democrats
unchallengeable legislative majorities, allowing them to pass whatever
edicts they like — and to appoint judges who will uphold them. And the
best way to scare off or otherwise neuter critics of that policy of
national suicide is to label and ostracize them as racists.
That tack effectively buries the argument that, as with everything
else it is supposed to do, government’s immigration policies ought to be
enacted to fulfill its purpose as laid out in the Preamble to the
Constitution, specifically:
“[T]o form a more perfect Union, establish Justice,
insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the
general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and
our Posterity…”
After seeing the examples of Europe, in recent years, allowing masses
of foreign nationals into this country that cannot be properly vetted,
and giving “sanctuary” to the illegal ones, hardly seems the best way to
attain those goals. Nor does demonizing as haters American citizens
committed to “guard with jealous attention the public liberty”…
UPDATE by Stewart Rhodes: Video footage shows
Trump supporters kicking Portland stabbing killer Jeremey Christian out
of their free speech rally/march on April 29, 2017:
The lying leftist media is insisting that he was part of that April
29 pro-Trump free speech march, and therefore was a Trump supporter,
when clearly the rally organizers and attendees wanted nothing to do
with him and kicked him out of their march, with the assistance of the
police (one officer literally pushes him away from the Trump people).
The police made the right call, as the event organizers and pro-Trump
marchers had a right to freedom of association and speech (they
shouldn’t have to let someone else co-opt their event and their
message).
He was still free to speak his nonsense, but not in their midst. He
could stand separate from them, and say whatever idiotic crap he
wanted – he was calling a white Antifa kid a “white nigger” and throwing Nazi salutes, aka “Roman salutes” while yelling “hail victory” and “Sieg Heil, “according to his own account of the day
– but he had no right to force himself on the Trump supporters who were
NOT racists and co-opt their event. A good example of why event
organizers need to be aware that infiltrators and nuts will try to worm
their way in to co-opt their event and message, and have a plan for
dealing with it. And a good example of the police handling it in the
right way, to protect both the right to freedom of speech and the right
to freedom of association for everyone. – Stewart

The Associated Press (AP) reported
on Tuesday afternoon that, after severe backlash from conservatives and
military supporters, the military financial services organization USAA
will resume showing advertisements on conservative talk radio host Sean
Hannity’s Fox News Channel show. “The USAA financial services firm says it is reinstating its advertising
on Sean Hannity’s Fox News Channel program after receiving heavy
criticism from many of the military members and veterans that it
serves,” the AP wrote. See More: http://sharlaslabyrinth.blogspot.com/2017/05/breaking-vets-organize-massive-boycott.html
In response, Media Research Center president Brent Bozell
declared: “It goes without saying that USAA has not experienced this
kind of customer outrage in its entire history.”
<<< Please support MRC's NewsBusters team with a tax-deductible contribution today. >>>
As readers may recall, USAA withdrew its advertisement spots
on Thursday from Hannity’s FNC show after pressure from far-left
organizations running a smear campaign in hopes of causing Hannity to
lose his job.
USAA stated in a litany of tweets that they did so under the guise of being an “opinion” show and not one of the network’s “news programs.” The sorry excuse immediately backfired.
The Media Research Center’s Tim Graham wroteon Friday that this claim that they had advertised on “opinion shows” in
error was dubious at best. USAA had prominently advertised on the
eponymous shows of MSNBC pundits Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O’Donnell.
Here’s more from the AP story on the announcement:
USAA was one of 10 companies that had pulled ads from “Hannity,” who
had been attacked for reporting a discredited story involving the death
of a Democratic National Committee staff member. Hannity has said he
will no longer talk about conspiracy theories on Seth Rich’s death last
year.
USAA said it is continuing the commercials while reviewing its overall advertising policy.
This is quite a reversal from last Friday, when the AP began a report this way:
Financial services firm USAA, facing a backlash to its decision to
pull advertising from Sean Hannity's show on Fox News Channel, says it
is withdrawing from other opinion-based television programs.
The company, which sells insurance and other products to members of
the U.S. military, veterans and their families, had cited its aversion
to opinionated programming in backing away from Hannity.
Yet the conservative watchdog Media Research Center noted that USAA
ads had run in recent weeks on left-leaning shows hosted by Rachel
Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell and Chris Matthews on MSNBC.

McDonald’s leaves thousands of American’s in fury after their latest advertisements, I can’t believe that they did this!!
A series of ads for McDonald’s U.K. is painting all Americans as one big
bunch of sports-lovin’, boot-wearin’, motorcycle-ridin’,
big-hair-havin’ burger enthusiasts.
From GOP The Daily Dose
"And you know what? It’s kinda hard to argue otherwise.
As part of the company’s “Great Tastes of America” campaign,
McDonald’s released the commercials for their four new state-themed
burgers — the South Carolina Stack , Tennessee Stack, Louisiana Stack
and New York Stack — and they all revolve around the same silly premise.
Each ad opens with an unassuming Brit pondering his or her lunch
options, usually alongside a friend or co-worker. Once the discussion
turns toward a state-themed Stack burger, each set of acquaintances
inexplicably begins to take on the stereotypical attributes of that
state’s citizens — or the attributes that people in the U.K. apparently
associate with that part of America."
In one commercial, for instance, a man and his female companion
decide on McDonald’s for lunch, since she’s eager to try their new South
Carolina Stack. But as she begins to rattle off its components — two
beef burgers, beechwood-smoked bacon, smoky cheese, etc. — both she and
her boyfriend transform from mild-mannered Brits to mild-mannered Brits
with cowboy hats, boots, and a huge bouffant of Dolly Parton-like hair
(for her).
“Perhaps never before have we seen such a pure crystallization of
what it means to be from South Carolina,” wrote the Charleston City
Paper in their tongue-in-cheek review of the ad.
McDonald’s U.K.’s other “Great Tastes of America” commercials follow a
similar formula, slightly altered to accommodate a new American
stereotype: co-workers become bikers while discussing the Tennessee
Stack; a pair of office workers change into cheerleaders as they yearn
for a Louisiana Stack; and two companions (and their dog) turn into
baseball players in the midst of touting the “chunky coleslaw” served
atop a New York Stack.
McDonald’s U.K. also made headlines earlier this month after they were
accused of exploiting family tragedy to sell Filet-O-Fish sandwiches
(they were forced to pull a commercial which featured a young boy
yearning to be like his deceased father, only to find that he and dad
shared a love of fish sandwiches and tartar sauce).
Dedication going out to the looney left..ya know the Dudes and Dudettes of the elite universities,politicians et al who subscribe to the Progressive CPUSA way of life! #DumbedDown Fools!
.... to true conservatives/patriots
We are getting our collective asses kicked by the progressive looney left...how you ask?
Well because they control media as well as the internet...let me be blunt...one cannot fight a forest fire with a squirt gun...nor take the high road whilst we are leg swept ala the... Karate Kids~ aka trolls... via the media and internet providers! In essence what we have now is the proverbial inmates running the asylum!
Here is my pitch directed at all the wealthy truly conservative patriot/oath keeper millionaire/billionaire executives,actors, pundits and anchors out there:
How about starting a Cable News Network as well as a Independent Internet Provider dedicated to the truth and not being greedy... that will provide a service at a modest cost to the customer..screw that stupid Fair and Balanced nonsense...hello is MSM Fair and Balanced? Hell no they never have been.
Let's call it PNN (Patriot News Network) or ONN (OathKeepers News Network) Instead of the header "Fair and Balanced"...'The truth is out There' The Trump's ,Rush Limbaugh,Michael Savage,Bill O'Reilly,Sean Hannity,Mark Levin many more etc.... should be the founders...they have lotsa money/business smarts and could increase the start up capital substantially by offering a stock purchase of say $10.00 per share...after all there are approximatley 43 million true patriots/oath keepers/constitutionalists out there in the electorate that would be more than happy to invest some hard earned money in a news and internet provider that actually supported them...and hey at $10.00 per share it is well within their budget constraints and would add up to one hella lot of start up capital.
Also salary caps on CEO's COO's News Anchors etc should be set at $1.00 less than the salary of the US President...we want people who are doing the job for the love of it not greed!
~> Well thats my basic pitch...feel free to make suggestions/comments !
oped: President Trump really needs to take the proverbial gloves off as well as his AG Sessions...George Soros, Barack Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton et al need to be prosecuted under 18 USC 2384-85 Seditious Conspiracy as well as the RICO Statues...Know ands ifs or buts about it...anything less is a waste of time and effort with zip zero results!
Newly released records show that George Soros plans to turn a huge profit by bringing America down.
His stock portfolio reveals that Soros stands to make a fortune if
the U.S. economy tanks — and he’s figured out the easiest way to do that
would be to have President Donald Trump impeached and removed from
office by the end of the year.

The shadowy, leftist billionaire hates all-things Trump, but having
him impeached isn’t just personal anymore; it’s business, too.
According to public filings, Soros Fund Management LLC invested
$764.3 million betting against the two greatest measures of U.S.
business strength this year.
The S&P 500 measures the value of larger U.S. businesses, and the
Russell 2000 measures smaller, publicly traded U.S. businesses. Sponsored: The Secret Meaning Behind Hillary’s Hand Gesture
Soros took a huge loss guessing that both of them would fall in 2017.
But the S&P has increased 5.7 percent this year, and the Russell is
up, too.
Soros, who made $1 billion by breaking the Bank of England in 1992,
set his sights on the U.S. Treasury before the presidential election.
Last June, Soros sold more than a third of all his American stocks
and began investing heavily in gold. Gold prices soar during times of
economic crisis. They hit an all-time high of $1,900 an ounce under
President Barack Obama in August 2011.
Unfortunately for Soros, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
lost the election and wasn’t able to continue Obama’s weak financial
policies. Sponsored: Is THIS why Obama moved 2.1 miles from the White House?
Instead, the economy has been roaring since Donald Trump was elected
president on a promise to cut taxes and make America great again. The
Dow hit an all-time high on March 1, closing at more than 21,000. The
S&P broke its record for highest level 15 times by February. And last Tuesday, the Nasdaq hit its 33rd record high of the year.
American greatness is bad news for George Soros, who had lost nearly $1 billion by January.
Then suddenly, last week Democrats started talking about impeaching Trump, and stocks fell – and fell hard.
Last Tuesday, word leaked that Trump fired James Comey as FBI
director after Comey refused to quit investigating Trump’s alleged ties
to Russia. Sponsored:BEWARE! What’s Hillary been up to since the election?
In a May 16 interview with the left-wing website ThinkProgress, Texas
Rep. Al Green, a Democrat, warned President Trump will continue to act
“with impunity, unless he’s impeached” for obstruction of justice.
ThinkProgress is the “news” website of the Center for American Progress, founded by John Podesta — Hillary’s campaign manager. And both organizations are heavily funded by George Soros.
The threat of impeachment sent the stock market into a nosedive. The
very next day, the S&P 500 had its worst day since last September,
before Trump’s election. The Russell 2000 fell by 2.5 percent. And the
Dow Jones closed down 370 points.

“This is clearly Washington-driven,” Michael Shaoul, the CEO of Marketfield Asset Management, told CNBC.
Investors want Trump to carry through on his promise to get America
working again. Impeachment would scuttle his economic agenda and
paralyze the country.
“An impeachment proceeding would blow the market away,” said Jack Welch, the former CEO of General Electric.
History bears that out. Stocks fell throughout the Watergate scandal.
The S&P 500 was in a freefall for months after Richard Nixon’s
resignation, finally bottoming out on October 3, 1974. Democrats have plenty of reasons to want Trump impeached, and even
more to follow George Soros’ orders – 24 million reasons, actually. Washington Democrats are beholden to the Soros family. George Soros
donated more than $19 million to Democratic campaigns and PACs in 2016,
while his son Alexander gave $4.5 million. Impeachment serves their
political interests and pads his bottom line.
Sponsored:Is America still a Christian nation? Soros thought he would make a windfall by putting Hillary Clinton into office and watching America’s economy go down the drain. Now, he wants revenge – financing politicians who demand Trump’s
impeachment, the fake news outlets that keep the imaginary Russia
“scandal” ginned up, and the left-wing community organizers who make it
look like impeachment has any popular support among the American people. The last few months show that what’s good for George Soros is bad for America. — The Horn editorial team
