The Democrats have one fear that tends to permeate the party above all others:  That Donald Trump will get reelected in 2020’s election.

They are wholly justified in this fear, as well.  Trump remains incredibly popular among Republicans, both those in Congress and those in the general constituency, and is even winning over a decent swath of independent voters on account of his intrepid mission to drain the swamp and battle the so-called “Deep State” on the behalf of Americans everywhere.  Witnessing the swamp itself rise up to “resist” him has only tempered the resolve of Trump’s supporters as well, as this carte-blanche opposition to the President’s agenda is simply further proof that not all is well in our nation’s capital or Capitol.

Now, with articles of impeachment introduced into the equation, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff is admitting what Democrats are really up to here:  Damaging the President’s chances at reelection.

Schiff briefly addressed critics who say that Democrats should simply wait for the American people to judge the president in the 2020 election.

Democrats, Schiff suggested, cannot allow that, because it would essentially allow Trump to “cheat” in one more election. His remarks echo the Democrats’ longheld belief that the Trump campaign “colluded” with Russia in 2016, despite the fact that the Mueller report debunked the narrative, finding no evidence of collusion or conspiracy between the two.

“The argument, ‘why don’t you just wait?’ comes down to this: Why don’t you just let him cheat in just one more election?” Schiff stated. “Why not let him have foreign help one more time?”…

Of course, impeachment itself has already been determined likely to fail during the Senate trial, making this entire process all for naught in the long run.  The Democrats are simply using this extra TV time to lambast the Commander in Chief before the nation heads to the polls next November.

And isn’t that just election meddling by another name?

Perhaps it’s time that we have a talk about patriotism and how it relates to our national interests over our personality differences.

We have, for too long, been on a steady slide toward partisan implosion here in America.  We are taking the political processes that are required to operate America and turning them into personal, ugly attacks on one another.  This drives us apart, as opposed to uniting us, and it allows the rest of the world to look in and laugh at us.

This is precisely the sort of thing that Vladimir Putin of Russia would like to see; a divided, pedantic, childish America who can’t come together on any issue, and who then becomes the laughing stock of the global community.

Worse still, there are Democrats out there who are actively helping to promote this immaturity by attempting to embarrass our President on the world’s stage.

Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden’s presidential campaign released a digital ad Wednesday evening that includes the now-infamous footage of world leaders appearing to mock President Trump.

The ad includes clips of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, French President Emmanuel Macron, and U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson at a reception amid the backdrop of a NATO summit in England, where Mr. Trudeau was caught making an off-the-cuff remark about Mr. Trump’s lengthy question-and-answer sessions.

It also features a clip of Mr. Trump eliciting laughter from the United Nations when he declared last year that his administration had accomplished “more than almost any administration in the history of our country.”

“The world sees Trump for what he is — insincere, ill-informed, dangerously incompetent, and incapable, in my view, of world leadership,” Mr. Biden says in the ad.

Our global adversaries, particularly those in the Kremlin, want the American people to turn on Donald Trump, and Vladimir Putin himself would like nothing more than to see a weakening of the office of the President.

Biden is now simply doing his bidding.

For well over nine months now, the writing has been on the wall for Senator Kamala Harris’ bid for the Democratic primary in 2020.

It was back in February that Harris foolishly attempted to defend her record as a hard-nosed prosecutor by joking about “smoking marijuana” and “listening to Tupac” when grilled in an interview about her tough treatment of non-violent drug offenders.  Worse still, the story was a lie – a fact that only took several minutes for the internet to discover.  Then, to top it all off, Kamala made the ill-advised attempt at humor during Black History Month.

Yikes.

This incident sent Harris’ polling numbers crashing down into the low single digits, where they have remained since.

Now, someone in her camp has finally pulled the plug on the long-doomed campaign.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) ended her bid for the White House on Tuesday amid dropping poll numbers and reports of turmoil in her campaign.

“I’ve taken stock and looked at this from every angle, and over the last few days have come to one of the hardest decisions of my life. My campaign for president simply doesn’t have the financial resources we need to continue,” Harris said in a statement. “I’m not a billionaire. I can’t fund my own campaign. And as the campaign has gone on, it’s become harder and harder to raise the money we need to compete.”

“In good faith, I can’t tell you, my supporters and volunteers, that I have a path forward if I don’t believe I do,” the California Democrat concluded.

The development comes after Harris canceled a Tuesday fundraiser at the Paul Weiss law firm in New York City over what her campaign described as a “personal matter,” reports CNBC. The event, which was expected to draw Wall Street investors Marc Lasry and Blair Effron, had not been rescheduled by the campaign.

The Democratic Senator’s exit from the race should act as a catalyst for others to abandon their ill-fated bids as well, allowing the Democratic Party to finally get down to business of trying to push Joe Biden over the top despite his constant, creepy gaffes.

Colin Kaepernick, the former second string NFL quarterback famous for the trend of kneeling during the National Anthem, has had a rough few weeks.

A recent “NFL workout” stunt portrayed as an attempt to find a job in the NFL didn’t go quite according to plan, with Kaepernick receiving zero calls in the days following the event.  The workout itself was lackluster, with observers noting that Kaepernick didn’t appear particularly sharp with his passes.

But, that lack of accuracy allowed one of the wide receivers involved in the workout to get noticed.

Colin Kaepernick’s high-profile workout on Nov. 16 for NFL scouts, coaches and executives has yet to generate any opportunities for the free agent quarterback.

However, Jordan Veasy —one of his wide receivers from the workout — has earned an opportunity to tryout with the Cleveland Browns.

According to Howard Balzer, Veasy was among the six players who the Browns worked out on Monday.

Veasy is no stranger to the NFL, and no slouch.

Veasy played his college football at California but has yet to find a long-term NFL home. He’s had stops on the practice squads of the Titans, Jaguars, Colts and most recently the Bills. He was released in October from Buffalo.

In two seasons with the Golden Bears, Veasy had 63 catches for 797 yards and nine touchdowns.

Meanwhile, Colin Kaepernick has been reduced to hocking casual sneakers for the sweatshop kings over at Nike.

Folks, it’s time to come to a startling and uncomfortable realization about the Transportation Security Administration: They are useless.

These are the blue-shirted, low-authority buffoons that we must navigate in order to board an airplane.  They will make us remove our shoes in search of bombs, they will zap us with unwanted doses of radiation from a machine that can see us naked, and, if all else fails, they will simply grope us and our children with legal protection from the Federal Government.

Oh, and let’s not forget the fact that they have never caught a terrorist – which was the very intention of their impetus.

Yet, still, they continue to waste taxpayer money on new and nonsensical equipment that not only makes our lives more complicated without any additional safety benefits, but also drives us further into the surveillance state that our Founding Fathers warned us about.

Their latest toy sounds like something out of the Inspector Gadget cartoon.

In a field outside Providence, University of Rhode Island researchers are working on new ways to detect and stop explosives popular with terrorists. They’re partnering with the Department of Homeland Security on a sensor – called a “digital dog nose” – that will soon be the size of cell phone. Able to be mounted on a drone, it could can detect homemade explosives as well or better than a bomb-sniffing dog.

They’ve also created a gel called “Schmoo” that can surround an explosive or chemical agent and flash-freeze it so it can be safely removed from a transit hub.

“We think about how to detect and mitigate the threats for today, while we’re still realizing that if we get really good about today’s threats, there’s going to be a different threat tomorrow,” said professor Jimmie Oxley, of the university’s Center for Excellence for Explosives Detection, Mitigation and Response. “What would that look like, and how would we attack it?”

Now, in addition to being disrobed, groped, and nuked by the TSA, you’re also going to get sniffed.

Given how few, (zero), airline-based terror attacks that we’ve seen even attempted since 9/11, and knowing what we know about mass shootings at schools, why haven’t we as a nation reallocated this “security” force to handle an actual danger to our nation?

The school board of District 211 in Illinois voted 5 to 2 in favor of the new policy, which states in part that students “shall be treated and supported in a manner consistent with their gender identity, which shall include students having access to restrooms and locker rooms that correspond to their gender identity.”

Transgender student Nova Maday said he’s “ecstatic” about a “step forward in progress,” and student Julia Burca tearfully explained why she feels “uncomfortable my privacy’s being invaded, as I am a swimmer.”

“I do change multiple times, naked, in front of the other students in the locker room,” she continued. “I understand that the board has an obligation to all students, but I was hoping that they would go about this in a different way that would also accommodate students such as myself.”

Remarkable video. First the cross dressing boy gloating that he gets access to girls locker rooms, and then the girl in tears and terrified now that she has to change around boys. You really are just evil if you support this.

TDW:

The school board of District 211 in Illinois voted last week, in a 5 – 2 decision, to allow biological males into the female locker room at Palatine High School. The board said that all students should be “treated and supported in a manner consistent with their gender identity.” This “support” apparently necessitates obliterating the privacy and safety of every girl at the school.

A student named Nova Maday, a biological male who identifies as transgender, filed a lawsuit in 2017. The lawsuit came after a Department of Education mandate in 2015 forced Palatine High to allow boys like himself into bathrooms and locker rooms with girls. The school tried to strike a compromise, inviting the gender-confused males into girl-designated areas but setting aside a separate, private area for them to use. Maday was not happy with this compromise. He demanded access not just to the girls locker room, but to the exact same area where the girls change. His basic human rights are apparently violated in horrific fashion if he is not able to actually see girls get naked and himself get naked in front of them.

The school board found his deranged arguments convincing, and now every girl in the school must shut up and cooperate as biological males invade their private spaces. More

So his feelings were hurt and they caved? What about the feelings of the girls? Did anyone ask them? They’re forcing them to see a naked boy and that’s okay to them? Not in my book.

Give the transgender students their own private locker room to change and shower in. And if that’s not enough for them too bad.

Some people just don’t know when to leave well enough alone.  Former First Lady Hillary Clinton is just such a person.

Back in 2016, Clinton cemented her reputation as that of a sleazy and conniving political lifer; the kind of character that would put any of the antagonists from House of Cards to shame.  Her rigging of the Democratic primaries, with the assistance of the DNC, was seen as a betrayal by the left’s base.  The former Secretary of State quickly became a persona non grata within the party itself.

That’s why there was no uproar from the Democrats when Hillary looked to be sitting out 2020.  They were likely glad to be rid of her.

Unfortunately for them, they may have spoken too soon.

Failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton joined James Corden on Tuesday’s edition of the Late Late Show to mock President Donald Trump, fuelling speculation that she may be preparing a 2020 presidential run.

Hillary Clinton made a surprise appearance alongside her daughter Chelsea during Corden’s monologue, with the pair receiving a prolonged standing ovation from the audience.

“I’m really fed up with all your Trump jokes. Every single night,” Hillary joked. “If anyone should be telling Trump jokes … it’s me.”

With that, Corden stepped aside and gave the two women a chance to take shots at Trump and his former press secretary Sean Spicer, who has received support from Trump as he continues to compete and win on the dance competition show Dancing on the Stars. 

Clinton recently responded to a tweet by President Trump, daring her to run again in 2020, with “don’t tempt me” – the first of several indications that 2016’s runner up may be getting the band back together.
