From New York City television:
New video surfaced Tuesday evening of more NYPD officers being doused with water. The most recent incident in Queens has compelled lawmakers to announce a new bill that cracks down on anyone who disrespects the badge, CBS TV-2 reported. There have been at least four separate cases in recent weeks of citizens showing contempt for officers, prompting some fed-up lawmakers to say enough is enough. They want anyone who does it to go to jail.

“The Democratic presidential candidates have revived the anti-police rhetoric of the Obama years. Joe Biden’s criminal-justice plan promises that after his policing reforms, black mothers and fathers will no longer have to fear when their children “walk[] the streets of America” — the threat allegedly coming from cops, not gangbangers. President Barack Obama likewise claimed during the memorial for five Dallas police officers killed by a Black Lives Matter–inspired assassin in July 2016 that black parents were right to fear that their child could be killed by a police officer whenever he “walks out the door.” South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg has said that police shootings of black men won’t be solved “until we move policing out from the shadow of systemic racism.” Beto O’Rourke claims that the police shoot blacks “solely based on the color of their skin”

You reveal how little you know about elected officials. Some leave to run for higher office, to cash in as lobbyists, or because they get sick of the toil it takes on their family. When they leave en mass, as the Republicans are now starting to do, it’s because they know they’re in a hopeless situation. They can see they’re going to continue to be stuck in a useless minority or they know they won’t be able to win re-election. “Running scared?” That’d be why there was a far higher number of GOP than Dems heading for the exits in 2018 and why it’s already happening again, in even bigger numbers. Trump’s racist nationalism is going to kill the current GOP, er Party of Trump. All you jokers here think it’s great, but the other two thirds of the country don’t agree.

ABob at 9:39. President Trump is no racist anymore than Joe Biden or Nancy Pelosi. I thank God he is a nationalist. Let there be European solutions for Europe, African for Africa, Middle East for Middle eastern etc. All democracies have transferred economic and political power to their capitols. The respective flyover country in America, Britain, France, Italy etc. is stultified.The ever distant elites and their disconnected decision making erode individual faith, hope, patriotism, liberty and power.
President Trump has reversed this internationalist malaise by more jobs, money, hope, power and liberty in our individual lives than the Washington Party has ever done. Our GDP is around 3%, double his predecessor’s bet efforts. France is struggling to get to under 1%. Germany will barely grow its economy by 1%. This is huge. Can we drain the swamp of wasteful spending and reduce interest on our debt we’ll be golden.
As a conservative I love the fact that the president, a non ideologue, will blow up any RINO as happily as any Lefty. Drain the SWamp!

From Hilton’ new book >Positive Populism:
From the publisher: Steve Hilton shows how populism can be a positive force for improving lives with revolutionary ideas to restore the economic security that working Americans once took for granted and rebuild the ties of family, community, and nation that have been ripped apart by decades of policies that favored big government, big business, and the powerful.

“Diddled an intern” means you must send in your feminist membership and sacrifice any given woman on the altar of Democrats. Monica was a 20 yr. old intern servicing her 60? year old boss. His reaction? Lie repeatedly. In your face. Slick Willy (har!) exposed himself to Paula Jones who told him he’d see her in court which he did. His response? Perjure himself in federal court, get busted give up his law license, pay Paula Jones $850,000 and slink off the stage. When busted on the “diddling an intern” he claimed he was a sex addict, remember?
Jemmy Carter, George H.W. Bush, GWB, Bob Dole and Mitt Romney had excellent character as seen by honoring their marriage vows, raising capable children, upholding their oaths of office and not spending time in jail or getting busted for perjury. My guess is that it is because they had coherent parenting, a thing denied Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, through no fault of their own.
Clinton character was best summarized by Christopher Hitchens who called this chapter “no one left to lie to.”
