Democrats abhor New Hampshire’s low-spending, low-taxes culture. They’d like nothing more than to replace the Granite State of Mind with a California State of Mind. One that Skip noted yesterday includes a plot to pilfer half the savings California businesses would otherwise realize from the FederalReformeform.  Well, they’re not done yet (nor will they ever because for liberals there is no such thing as enough).

Any business in California that cooperates with federal immigration officials will face prosecution, according to state Attorney General Xavier Becerra.

Make sure to add that to your list of First Year accomplishments Mr. Trump. You helped California discover the tenth amendment.

I am on most of the Republican email lists that matter here in NH.  Ditto the Democrat ones – like the US Ambassador to NH Jeanne Shaheen (who demonstrates on a regular basis that what happens in DC should override what we New Hampshireits decide for ourselves).  Now, we all know that almost all, Right and Left, politicians are going to “embellish” from time to time; we all know how and when to discount what they say or write.  However, Shaheen decided to use a blatant lie in order to score political points.  Here’s what she sent on the 19th (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Friends: Right now, Donald Trump and congressional Republicans are just hours away from shutting down our entire government. Why? Because they’re more interested in playing politics than in doing what’s right.

Republicans refuse to protect the nearly 700,000 Dreamers who came to this country as children, provide adequate resources to end the opioid crisis or reauthorize the Children’s Health Insurance Program. It’s absolutely unacceptable. No matter what, I’m going to keep fighting until midnight strikes. But with only hours to go, I want to know where you stand:

Now, I realize that there are two lies going on here (or at best, 1 is a severe misdirection).

So far, their kvetching on Trump’s Tax Reform has turned into a puddle of dried up tears.  And their attempts to dismiss The Wall as being misguided, too expensive, and would never work: they’ll tunnel under it and if it is taller than what we have now, they’ll just use bigger ladders.  Hahahahaha!

Build The Wall: U.S Special Forces Tried To Breach Trump’s Border Wall–They Couldn’t Do It

For those who mock the border wall and think it’s a waste of money, it stopped U.S. Special Forces teams that were testing the prototypes. The towering height made it almost impossible for assault teams to scale the fortification that President Trump wants along our southern border with Mexico. It’s projected to cost $18 billion over the next decade; one prototype for the wall is a staggering 30 feet tall. The minimum height that Customs and Border Protection want for the wall is 18 feet, though up to 30 is not off limits. It also has to be six feet deep. The testing concerning scaling was a three-week endeavor (via CBS Local DFW) [emphasis mine]:

On Friday, a disturbing post was made on social media by an actual school board member in the Timberlane Regional School district. Peter Bealo, who is listed as “Board Chair” for Timberlane/Plaistow, posted a photo of the horrific story about abuse in California, then tried to attribute that behavior to all homeschoolers.

The post has since been removed but not after many parents saw it and expressed their shock and anger over such a horrifying statement:

ONE YEAR AGO TODAY, Hillary Clinton did not become President.

(H/T: Instapundit)

And if you dismiss Trump’s tweets and pronouncements as the Shiny Objects that they are intended to be for the Dems, media, and anti-Trumpers, he’s actually piling up a very good conservative “done” list; just dub him the Anti-Obama.  And this is hillarious (see what I did there?; emphasis mine, reformatted):

How times have changed, how times have changed.  Remember come November, New Hampshirites, that our entire Democrat Congressional coven voted illegal immigrants over American Citizens.  You see, they just showed us that they were willing to take away healthcare for over 9 million poor kids simply to keep illegals into the country.  They showed us that we 1.3 million residents don’t matter, that the Rule of Law doesn’t matter – they are willing to throw the equivalent of a 2 year old’s temper tantrum in refusing to long term fund the SCHIP program – something THEY demanded in this CR (Continuing Resolution to keep the Fed Govt open) and the Republicans gave them.

Today, left-wing organizations rallied together to hold another “Women’s March” in Concord. This year’s rally was vastly smaller than last year’s rally but the sentiments were the same. It seems the people in attendance simply hate President Trump and are protesting his mere existence, all while pushing their own political agenda of course.

The organizers call the rally “inclusive” but what they really mean is that only those who agree with their extreme left-wing ideology are welcomed:

We would love for you to join us for an full day event at the Concord State house in an inclusive rally and day of action and unity! All are invited to join as a show of solidarity with the Women’s March on Washington and in support of our rights, our safety, our health, our families, and our environment. This is an inclusive day of action and unity.

What’s truly ironic is women have more rights since Trump became president – women are no longer forced to purchase health insurance they cannot afford. Trump killed the Obamacare mandate in the tax cut bill, which also allows women to keep more of the money they earn in their own pockets rather than in the hands of the government.

(H/T: Powerline – just a whole lotta good memes from them today!)

Yep, it is.  In fact, Nick (you who hold that Google has NO bias at all so SHUT UP), now even Google is saying “er, my bad” (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Google says it is discontinuing its fact-check feature because it proved to be too faulty for public use, directly attributing the decision to an investigation by The Daily Caller News Foundation. The company has no date set for when it will return, if ever.

“We launched the reviewed claims feature at the end of last year as an experiment with the aim of helping people quickly learn more about news publications,” a spokeswoman for Google said, while also adding that The Daily Caller News Foundation was the catalyst for the recent move. “We said previously that we encountered challenges in our systems that maps fact checks to publishers, and on further examination it’s clear that we are unable to deliver the quality we’d like for users.”

OK, Nick Martin, another example; this one from RedState (again, and reformatted, emphasis mine):

Dave Rubin Conducts YouTube Experiment Proving Google’s Anti-Capitalism Bias

Google’s notoriety in the political bias department has been overtly undeniable as it continuously disadvantages right-learning or Christian thought. Thanks to one of YouTube’s most famous interview show host, Dave Rubin, we can now see that Google has an anti-Capitalist bent as well. On Wednesday, Rubin posted a video to YouTube titled “Socialism Isn’t Cool,” where he outlined exactly how socialism was the bane of society…Rubin went on to say that individualism, not collectivism, is the way to prosperity and that socialism conflicts directly with what it means to be human. It’s definitely worth a watch.

Go to the post to watch it.  What was unsurprising, at least to those of us on the Right, is what Google’s child, YouTube, did:

For nothing is more “Democratic” than the mantra “your money is our money – you just haven’t realized it yet”.  They proclaim “why can’t we do this; we are a wealthy country” as if they truly believe that your money IS their money to spend because y’all are all too stupid and dopey to spend it the right way – that is, THEIR way.  Case in point (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Democrats in California have proposed an amendment to take half of the tax savings businesses in their state get from the recently-passed federal tax cuts. California would seize the savings via a proposed “tax surcharge” on any tax reform benefits, The San Francisco Chronicle reports.

So, they feel entitled to any of your money that the Trump and the Republicans have said “hey, it’s YOUR money and we AREN’T going to take that private property away from you anymore”.  Democrats in CA are saying “No, you can’t keep that money – it belongs to US!”:

A Grandpa chair!

The two soon-to-be-official Granddaughters and the Grandson and me – they love to listen and I love to read to them.  During the day, the Grandson will often bring us book after book after book to read to him and often will ask for the same book to be read over and over and over to him. Which reminds me of this (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Yep, Chuckie Schumer and the rest of his Democrat demi-god-wannabees have decided that if they don’t want to fund the government when the money runs out tonite.  It’s clear what the reason is: DACA.  Now, far be it for me to lament the Feds having to close down (other than the military that protects us won’t get paid) as I have said for years that I don’t care – we’ve got 50 good governments (well, mostly?) that will still keep on going and a lot of stuff is on auto-pilot as well financially.  What will happen is that people will see, once again, how much control the Feds have – and shouldn’t.

All that said, the best line of the day putting Democrats into the proper light:
