Progs Are Pissed That The Feds Are Going After Eco-Terrorists

PipelineThe media splash stories in large font types “above the fold” when pipeline failures fit their progressive narrative. But we never hear a peep out of them when the source of those failures is a man (woman, whatever)-caused disasters at the hands of liberal Eco-Terrorists.

In October 2016, a group of five demonstrators cut through padlocks and chains to enter the flow stations of the Dakota Access Pipeline.  Dubbed Valve Turners, they shut off the pipeline’s valves, temporarily stopping the flow of oil through the pipeline.  Local law enforcement officials in North Dakota apprehended the group. A court found two of the protestors guilty of felony charges, two more are awaiting trial, and a fifth was found guilty of second-degree burglary.

Abortion Statistics: “Inexpedient to Legislate,” Says N.H. House

statehousehouseThe New Hampshire House today rejected HB 471, on abortion statistics. The bill would have put New Hampshire in line with the Centers for Disease Control, which has collected statistics for abortion surveillance for many years.

The vote on an “inexpedient to legislate” motion was 200-154.

Two hundred legislators voted like people who are afraid of evidence-based public health policy and afraid of political retribution from abortion providers.

How many children are terminated annually? It doesn’t matter, was the unspoken message in Representatives Hall.

Deep State Creeps

2017-12-05-8bb51beaThe short story emerging from “Mueller Enterprises Unlimited” is this – in my humble opinion.

Long before Donald Trump came along, a rogue FBI agent – the Bureau’s Associate Director, teamed up with two knucklehead Washington Post employees to take down a sitting president.

The highly placed FBI source of damning information against then-President Nixon was called “Deep Throat.” His name was eventually leaked decades later. It was Associate FBI Director Mark Felt.

New Year’s Resolution for NH Politicians – Stop Lying to Voters

stopthelies

January 1st is usually a day of reflection for many people over the previous year. It’s also a day where people create New Year’s Resolutions to make some sort of change in the new year. Political Buzz decided it might be a good time to create a New Year’s Resolution for politicians in New Hampshire, of any political affiliation, to stop lying to voters.

It’s really quite simple. If you want to pass legislation, use facts about it to explain why to voters. If you oppose legislation, use facts about it to explain why to voters.

Unfortunately, there are too many politicians who chose to lie about legislation to voters. That has to stop. Voters deserve better than to have elected officials lie to them about changes they seek to make in New Hampshire laws. Lying does no one any good and it keeps voters uninformed. That’s simply not fair to Granite Staters.

“Small arsenal”? Sounds to me like the guy was getting ready for a 3-gun match

3 gun competitionI am by NO means a gun expert but this headline at Fox was guffaw bait:

Man found with small arsenal on Houston Hyatt Regency’s top floor before New Year’s Eve celebration, police say.

Don’t worry, Fox, other media outlets had similar headlines but being more of a conservative outlet, you had NO one there to double check the copy first (that is, if he or she could stop laughing first)?  You know – facts?  Correct description?  Then I saw what constituted a “small arsenal”:

Happy New Year – 2018

Well, it has been quite the year, hasn’t it?  Certainly there’s been no dearth of issues, ideas, subjects, people, and pet peeves to write about (and the occasional Palate Cleanser along the way). The problem for most of us is not what to write about but getting the time to do so with family, friends, … Read more

Happy New Year 2018 – hardest hit is the Socialist union known as SEIU and the Fight for $15 union organizers

SEIU Fight for 15

Heh!

Do you notice the irony of a giant tax cut motivating big companies to institute a $15/hour minimum wage for their workers? Could we at least get an “Amen!” from the Fight for 15 people?

Remember a while ago that agitators from various unions, especially the SEIU, were flogging and picketing fast food chains like McDonalds, Wendy’s, and Burger King, especially in bigger cities?  They wanted the employees to step out of their stores and demand far more than what they were worth at the time.  Led by union organizers from the SEUI (who could have cared less about their future members – they spent millions in trying to acquire millions of new dues paying members), they made it a national news story.  While the cameras were out front, the unions were getting their faces into their Democrat elected officials to get their economic demands codified into law – notably in California and New York (who knew?) with the expected results now that the minimum wages are skyrocketing. So I have to laugh – Trump has screwed them all over.  Instead of

A wee tilt for the Party of Government by the Government?

Money - SatchelThat would be the Democrats and are well known as the Party of Government.  Why not? It seems that most of the employees are tilted towards one Party and it aint the Republicans.  Like this department:

VIRTUALLY EVERY DAY OF 2016, SOMEBODY IN DOJ DC WAS GIVING MONEY TO HILLARY: More than 2,600 individual donations were to the Clinton campaign by donors who listed the Department of Justice or one of its elements, like the FBI, as their employers. Their contributions totaled more than $416,000. Trump got a little more than $20,000 from a mere 61 such employees.

Only 268 of them lived in the Washington, D.C. but their combined total of more than $242,000 was half of all the DOJ/FBI donors to Clinton. That’s a drop in the bucket of $1.2 billion that Clinton spent in losing to Donald Trump but the huge gulf between DOJ backers of Clinton and Trump sheds additional light on why congressional Republicans are raising a growing stink about partisan bias in DOJ and the FBI.

I guess they did put their money where their mouths were –

Best female UN Ambassador since Jeane Kirkpatrick!

I had been hoping for John Bolton but Nikki Haley has performed magnificently in putting America (and our interests) First instead of playing footsies in the UN swamp.  Really like the “taking names” bit and no longer playing the kumbaya “one big world family” farce. (H/T: Powerline)
