CNN Tries To Explain Away Its Own Viewer Poll’s HUGE Numbers For Trump

By Patrick Howley

CNN’s David Chalian struggled to explain why President Trump scored 76 percent “somewhat positive” or “very positive” in the cable network’s instant poll. The poll only counted “speech watchers,” Chalian explained, so Trump’s supporters might have been over-represented because they were watching the speech.

CNN seems to be having a tough night. Incidentally, the CBS News viewer poll also clocked in at exactly 76 percent approval for President Trump’s State of the Union address.

President Donald Trump urged Americans to come together to “Choose Greatness” in his State of the Union address on February 5, 2019.

“Members of Congress, the State of our Union is strong,” President Trump said as members of Congress chanted “USA! USA!”

“That sounds so good,” President Trump noted.

America is on a roll, and the only thing that can stop it is foolish wars, politics, and partisan investigations.

“We must reject the politics of revenge” and work for the “common good,” President Trump said.

“Together we can break decades of political stalemate, we can…build new coalitions.”

“The decision is ours to make. We must choose between greatness or gridlock…vision or vengeance, incredible progress or pointless destruction. Tonight I ask you to choose greatness.”

“We are just getting started.”

“Wages are rising at the fastest pace in decades, and growing for blue-collar workers.”

“Nearly 5 million Americans have been lifted off food stamps.”

“We are considered far and away the hottest economy anywhere in the world. Not even close. Unemployment has reached the lowest rate in nearly half a century.”

“African-American unemployment, Hispanic-American unemployment, and Asian-American unemployment have all reached their lowest levels ever recorded. Unemployment for people with disabilities has also reached an all-time low. More people are working now than at any time in the history of our country. 157 million people at work.”

“We are a net exporter of energy.”

President Trump focused on Christians’ ability to get off drugs. President Trump highlighted the story of Matthew Charles, the first man to be released from prison in accordance with President Trump’s First Step Act.

Relatedly, President Trump vowed to put the drug cartels out of business. Troops are at the border to meet the caravans. “This is a moral issue. The lawless state of our southern border is a threat…to all Americans,” Trump said.

Democrats live behind walls. Why can’t our country?

“Simply put: Walls work, and walls save lives,” President Trump said.

Women in the Democrat caucus gave a rousing ovation for Trump’s announcement that there are more women in the workforce than ever before. “You weren’t supposed to do that!,” the president joked. “Don’t sit yet, you’re going to like this! We now have more women serving in Congress than ever before.”

“USA! USA! USA!” Congress chanted.

“That’s great,” President Trump said.

President Trump demanded Congress pass a bill “to ban the late-term abortion of children who can feel pain in the mother’s womb.”

“We were born free, and we will stay free,” President Donald Trump vowed.

“America will never be a socialist country.”

“Great nations do not fight endless wars.”

“Our most thrilling achievements are still ahead.”

“Our biggest victories are still to come.”

“We do the incredible. We defy the impossible. We conquer the unknown. This is the time to re-ignite the American imagination.”

“This is the time to rekindle the bonds of love and loyalty…that link us together as American citizens, as neighbors, as patriots.”

“I am asking you to choose greatness…We must go forward together…We must keep America First in our hearts. We must keep freedom alive in our souls. And we must always keep faith in America’s destiny…”

“Thank you, God Bless you, and God bless America,” President Trump said.

 

Sheila Jackson Lee Triggered After Whitaker Trolls Judiciary Committee, “Mr. Attorney General, Your Humor is Not Acceptable” (VIDEO)

 

CAP

Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker appeared before the Democrat-led House Judiciary Committee for a hearing Friday morning.

Whitaker trolled Chairman Jerry Nadler right away when he warned the Democrat that his “five minutes is up.”

The trolling continued and Democrat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas became frustrated with Whitaker.

Sheila Jackson Lee parroted Democrat talking points as she began to question Whitaker — Lee brought up the fact that Whitaker was never confirmed by the Senate then stupidly asked if he had ever appeared in front of an oversight committee — she demanded he only answer “yes” or “no.”

Whitaker refused to answer in a “yes” or “no” format so Chairman Nadler and Sheila Jackson Lee accused him of stalling to use up her five minutes.

Sheila Jackson Lee repeated her stupid question to Whitaker so he continued look around. At this point Sheila Jackson Lee got triggered by Whitaker’s trolling.

“Mr. Attorney General, we’re not joking here. And your humor is not acceptable,” Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee said.

Even after Sheila Jackson Lee scolded Whitaker, he refused to answer in a “yes” or “no” format.

This is so epic. Whitaker knows that Bill Barr will be confirmed as Trump’s new Attorney General in a week or two so he’s mocking the Democrats.

SAN FRANCISCO’S DRUG ADDICTS NOW OUTNUMBER HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

San Francisco's Drug Addicts Now Outnumber High School Students

Leftist utopia turning sour

 | Infowars.com – FEBRUARY 7, 2019

San Francisco’s drug addicts now outnumber high school students as it was revealed that the city handed out a record 5.8 million free syringes last year – about 500,000 more than in 2017.

Despite spending an extra $1.8 million dollars last year in an effort to retrieve used needles, the government handed out about 2 million more syringes than it got back.

San Francisco’s junkie population – many of whom live on the streets and use sidewalks as outdoor toilets – now stands at 24,500, an increase of 2,000 drug users since 2012 and 8,500 more people than the city’s 16,000 high school students.

Despite new Mayor London Breed’s promise to clean up the city, 9,659 calls complaining about needles littering the streets were received in 2018, an increase of a third on 2017.

The number of complaints about feces on the streets has also tripled since 2011.

The disconnect between San Francisco’s tech elite and the homeless junkies who camp on its streets was emphasized in a tweet by Erik Finn showing starving, jobless homeless people huddled outside a “robotic coffeebar”.

Investor Bill Blain also expressed horror at what he witnessed during a recent trip to San Francisco, writing, “The squalor we saw in The City was frightful.”

“San Francisco has always been one of my favourite US cities, but the degree of homelessness, mental illness and drug abuse we saw on this trip was truly shocking,” writes Blaine, adding that his liberal friends shrugged it off as always having been that way, ignorant of the fact that it is clearly getting worse.

“I found it quite shocking the number of folk sleeping rough on the sidewalks, the smell of weed and drug impedimenta everywhere, the filth, mental illness and degradation on view just a few meters from the financial centre driving Silicon Valley,” said Blaine.

“It’s a city where the destitute seem to have become invisible to the Uber hailing elites. We found ourselves hopping on one of the beautiful F-Route Trolley Buses to find nearly every seat occupied by someone lugging around their worldly possessions around in a plastic bag. It was desperately sad,” he lamented.

As the video below documents, San Francisco is perhaps the prime example of what leftist nihilism mixed with virtue signalling eventually does to a city.

Russia exploited ‘racist, sexist, anti-Semitic’ US to divide people, tweets ‘insane’ Kamala Harris

Annotation 2019-02-07 155733

A California senator and media-appointed frontrunner for the 2020 Democratic nomination has finally managed to unravel the conundrum of so-called Russian ‘interference’ in the 2016 election — it’s so simple you won’t believe it.

Tweeting out her discovery, Kamala Harris explained that Russia was “able to influence” the last presidential election because it “figured out” that “racism, sexism, anti-Semitism, homophobia, and transphobia are America’s Achilles heel.”

Armed with this top secret information, Russia was “able” to turn Americans against each other in a way never before seen in history (if you conveniently forget most of history, that is).

CAP

Now, you might be thinking, if it was that easy for the Russians to take a glimpse at the various domestic tensions plaguing the US in 2016 and then use the information to (allegedly) throw an election, why didn’t the Kremlin act before now? Surely, if it was so simple, Russia could have been choosing US presidents for decades?

Annotation 2019-02-07 160053

Harris’s tweet was hailed as “important” and insightful commentary from some of her supporters and Russia-obsessed journalists, but was instantly mocked by more skeptically-minded individuals, some of whom took issue with the premise that Russia had affected the 2016 election at all.

CAP

CAP

Others joked that they thought hatred and prejudice had never existed in the US prior to Russia’s “intervention.” Some also suggested that the focus on Russia was a way to distract from the fact that Democrats lost the last election because Hillary Clinton ran a flawed campaign, rather than because of anything to do with Russia.

Somehow Russian influence didn’t matter “until Hillary lost,” another said.

CAP

Some people also took offence, as Harris’s comment appeared to be insulting Americans, implying that they are so “stupid” that “a bunch of Russians” can easily manipulate them on social media.

However, one tweet suggested that the real Achilles Heel was the fact that over 60,000 people read Harris’s tweet and hit the ‘like’ button.

AOC’s Green New Deal Proposal Is Way Too Modest. I’ve Got A Better Plan.

By Matt Walsh

Lawmaker and visionary Alexandria Ocasio Cortez unveiled her Green New Deal today. It aims to reshape the American economy and usher in an era of peace and prosperity. The goal is admirable. The plan to achieve it, sad to say, is far too modest. It seems that Cortez was so focused on practicality that she lost sight of the dream.

blob:https://www.dailywire.com/0fd199ca-c7e3-4071-bf51-292aacbfc53d

Cortez demands, among other things, a railroad across the ocean, a living wage for all Americans (including those unwilling to work), paid vacation for everyone, healthcare for everyone, the replacement or upgrade of every building in the country, and the banishment of all flatulent cows. These are certainly worthwhile and eminently feasible ideas, but they don’t go far enough.

See the source image

If I may, I would like to suggest a few additions. This is my New Green New Deal or Green New New Deal:

1. A free ice cream machine for every American (vegan ice cream, of course, because Cortez is killing all the milk cows).

2. Every sidewalk in America converted to a moving walkway.

3. Every staircase converted to an escalator.

4. Every escalator converted to an elevator.

5. A big bridge connecting North Carolina to Morocco, with, like, refreshment stands and stuff along the way. Also, like, there should be probably little cabins or something for people to sleep in.

6. A free blimp for every man, woman, and child.

7. A dog for every person.

8. A foot bath for every dog.

9. Essential oils for every foot bath.

10. No diseases (will cutdown on healthcare costs).

11. Universal joy.

12. A constantly refreshed selection of cereal in every pantry.

13. A lion that can tell me stories and grant wishes.

14. Immortality.

15. A computer type thing like from The Matrix where you plug in and learn how to do karate in five minutes.

16. Bananas that never rot.

17. No more loneliness.

18. Free consensual pony rides.

19. A kind of like robot thing that, like, lifts you out of the bed in the morning and puts on your pants for you and brushes your teeth.

20. All remaining student debt converted into tacos (one dollar of debt equals one taco).

According to my estimates, this plan is extremely affordable so long as we tax everyone at a moderate rate of 6,000 percent. We’d also need to consult with a team of highly-trained genies. I assume Cortez has already assembled that team if she’s planning to provide a livable income and paid vacations to every single person in the country.

And here’s the good news: most Americans will die anyway after Cortez tears down all of our homes and kills our livestock. This will thin the herd (pardon the pun) and make it much easier to provide for the small band of survivors who remain.

FRANCE RECALLS AMBASSADOR FROM ROME AFTER ITALY’S DEPUTY PM VISITS YELLOW VESTS

France Recalls Ambassador From Rome After Italy's Deputy PM Visits Yellow Vests

Rome, Paris relations fraying as populists challenge globalists

France has recalled its ambassador from Rome after a meeting between Italy’s deputy prime minister and leaders of the French Yellow Vest protester movement who have been calling for French President Emmanuel Macron’s resignation.

Luigi di Maio, Italy’s Deputy Prime Minister and leader of the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement hailed the “winds of change across the Alps” yesterday on Twitter after meeting with Yellow Vest activists Cristophe Chalencon and Ingrid Levavasseur.

Screen Shot 2019-02-07 at 11.14.41 AM

In a statement on the decision, France’s foreign ministry accused Italian officials of making “outrageous statements” and “repeated, baseless attacks” for months.

The statement said the attacks were without precedent since World War 2. “Having disagreements is one thing, but manipulating the relationship for electoral aims is another,” it said.

“All of these actions are creating a serious situation which is raising questions about the Italian government’s intentions towards France,” it added, making clear that Paris is increasingly worried by Di Maio and Salvini’s vocal support for the protest movement and its possible ramifications.

A diplomatic feud has been bubbling between Paris and Rome over repeated expressions of support for the protests coming from top Italian officials. Di Maio’s co-deputy PM Matteo Salvini said this week that French people “will be able to free themselves from a terrible president” in May after European parliamentary elections take place.

Chalencon and Levavasseur are themselves planning to run in those elections, according to French media reports.

DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSWOMAN TELLS BLACK TEEN CONSERVATIVE: “BE AFRAID OF US”

Democratic Congresswoman Tells Black Teen Conservative: "Be Afraid of Us"

Nydia Velázquez in bizarre threat

Democratic Congresswoman Nydia Velázquez appeared to threaten black teen conservative CJ Pearson during a Twitter exchange when Velázquez told the 16-year-old, “be afraid of us”.

The spat began when Pearson remarked that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez appeared to be constantly talking throughout Trump’s State of the Union speech while “the woman next to her keeps trying to look the other way.”

Screen Shot 2019-02-07 at 11.00.30 AM

Velázquez responded aggressively, tweeting, “Hi @TheCJPearson, I’m not “the woman sitting next to her”. @AOC and I — and millions like us — are the future of this country. And you’re right to be afraid of us. But you should learn my name.”

Screen Shot 2019-02-07 at 11.01.25 AM

Pearson hit back, tweeting, “I’m sorry, Congresswoman, but as @realDonaldTrump said – socialism will NOT be the future of this country. And Nydia, nothing about you nor @AOC scares me. It’s your policies- that jeopardize the stability of our nation and the future of my generation- that scare me.”

Screen Shot 2019-02-07 at 11.03.24 AM

Velázquez’s remarks were particularly unsavory following the left’s demonization campaign against the Covington high school students, which prompted threats of violence and doxxing.

“Once she realized she’d more or less threatened a black teenager on Twitter, she either a) called an emergency crisis management session of her staff; or b) shrugged and figured the media would cover for her and it was nothing to worry about,” remarked Dan Calabrese.

“B is probably right because neither minorities nor minors get any deference from the MSM if they’re conservative.”

Pearson had the last laugh.

ABC Silent on Behar Blackface

By Patrick Howley

ABC has yet to release a statement on “The View” host Joy Behar dressing as a black woman, replete with light blackface.

ABC News communications head Julie Townsend did not return Big League Politics’ request for comment on whether the Disney-owned network stands behind Behar, who showed her “African woman” costume on the air.

Big League Politics reported on Tuesday:

Joy Behar, the anti-President Trump commentator on ABC’s “The View,” wore blackface at the age of 29 to a Halloween party.

“It was a Halloween party, I went as a beautiful African woman,” Behar said in a past View segment in which she revealed the photo of herself.

Asked if she had tanning lotion on, Behar replied: “I had makeup that was a little bit darker than my skin.”

Jezebel flagged the segment in 2016.
