The simple fact is that the U.S. is not winning the war.The ceasefire in Afghanistan came to an unmistakable end Wednesday when 30 Afghan government soldiers were killed in a Taliban attack in a western province. You may not have noticed the end of the ceasefire because you may not have noticed the start of the ceasefire, just a few days earlier. You should not feel guilty. Seventeen years after the U.S. invaded, there is still not much reason to pay attention to Afghanistan, because nothing ever changes much. Yet we remain there in the obstinate hope that something will. We stay because we don't know what else to do. The simple fact is that we are not winning the war—and if you ...
Harley-Davidson Will Shift Manufacturing Overseas To Avoid Tariffs

It can do that because it's a global brand, but other businesses aren't as lucky. And workers everywhere stand to lose. Harley-Davidson, the iconic American motorcycle brand, will shift some manufacturing overseas in response to the raising of trade barriers on both sides of the Atlantic. In a filing made Monday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Wisconsin-based Harley-Davidson disclosed plans to move some of its manufacturing facilities from the Rust Belt to the Old World in the hopes of avoiding higher costs created by new European Union tariffs that target American-made motorcycles, along with other cultural products like whiskey and blue jeans. Those 25 percent ...
Red Hen's LGBT employees should have made sure Sarah Huckabee Sanders got served

The LGBT community understands bias and has pleaded for tolerance. How could the Red Hen's LGBT employees lobby to eject Sarah Huckabee Sanders?When Sarah Huckabee Sanders walked into the Red Hen restaurant in western Virginia, it is a safe bet she just wanted to enjoy a meal. She was in America’s heartland and wanted what everyone else did that evening at the Red Hen — a farm-to-table dinner. What Sanders received, however, is a stark reminder that half a century later, America is still asking who has a seat at the lunch counter, and the dinner table.“I would have done the same thing again,” co-owner Stephanie Wilkinson told The Washington ...

President Trump said early Monday that the Virginia restaurant that refused to serve White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is "dirty" and "needs a paint job." “The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders," the president wrote on Twitter. "I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!" The president's tweet comes after Sanders confirmed over the weekend that the owner of a restaurant in Lexington, Va., asked her to leave while she dined out with ...

(Bloomberg) -- To arrive at the El Paraiso water-filling station in Caracas by sunrise, Rigoberto Sanchez wakes before 4 a.m. Hours later, his tanker is in a slow-moving line with a dozen others. Only two of the 10 pumps work and Sanchez will have time for a couple of deliveries if he’s lucky. If he’s luckier, the military won’t intercept him. “They hijack our trucks, just like that,” said Sanchez, leaning on a rusty railing. “Once that happens, you’re in their hands, you have to drive the truck wherever they want you to.”’ Venezuela’s military has come to oversee the desperate and lucrative water trade as reservoirs empty, broken pipes ...

Maxine Waters wants more people to harass Trump administration officials in public spaces. The California Congresswoman went on a shouting rampage during a toy drive outside the Wilshire Federal Building on Saturday. After claiming Trump is”sacrificing our children,” referring to the illegal immigrant kids separated from their “parents” near the border, Waters again called for the president’s impeachment, triggering loud applause from the baying mob. “History will record while he tried to step on all of us, we kicked him in his rear and step on him,” she yelled, whipping up the crowd. “If you think we’re rallying now, you ain’t seen ...

Video of a white woman allegedly calling the police on a young black girl who was selling water bottles in San Francisco has gone viral. The child's mother, Erin Austin, posted the video on her Instagram account. In it, she follows a woman named Alison Ettel, who is holding a phone to her ear. Austin, who recently lost her job, told All the Moms that her 8-year-old daughter Jordan was trying to raise money because she wanted to go to Disneyland. Jordan was selling the water bottles outside the family's apartment building, which is across the street from AT&T Stadium, where the Giants were playing. Caught off guard when Ettel approached 8-year-old Jordan for a permit, Austin ...

Townhall.com Freedom’s Essential Hierarchy Paul Jacob 6/24/2018 12:01:00 AM - Have Americans forgotten that freedom makes getting along easier? We do not all have to like each other. We do not even all have to be nice to each other. We just don’t have license to hit or hornswoggle our fellows. Hate speech may be bad, but it is hate assaults — not talk — that should be punished by law. This distinction, between talk and act, is important. One way to look at it is to accept it as a “hierarchy.” And when it comes to hierarchy, you cannot get more deep into it than in thinking theologically. Which is why freedom of conscience was so key to the development ...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department says it has given House Republicans new classified information related to the Russia investigation after lawmakers had threatened to hold officials in contempt of Congress or even impeach them. A spokeswoman for House Speaker Paul Ryan said Saturday that the department has partially complied with subpoenas from the House Intelligence and Judiciary committees after officials turned over more than a thousand new documents this week. House Republicans had given the Justice Department and FBI a Friday deadline for all documents, most of which are related to the origins of the FBI's Russia investigation and the handling of its probe into ...
What Purpose Do Mosquitoes Serve?

Mosquitoes seem to serve no purpose other to annoy us. But from the mosquitoes' point of view, their purpose is to make more mosquitoes. From the point of view of birds, fishes, frogs and other animals that eat them, their purpose is to provide a source of food. But does the world actually need mosquitoes? It's hard to find a reason. An article by Janet Fang in the July 2010 magazine Nature asked scientists what the world would be like without mosquitoes. Most of them thought that we wouldn't miss the annoying little creatures. Disease among humans would decrease, if the mosquitoes that spread malaria, dengue fever, encephalitis and other illnesses disappeared. In the ...
Restaurant That Booted Sanders Closes the Next Night

The little Red Hen restaurant in rural Virginia found itself squarely in the middle of a big Beltway brouhaha after Sarah Huckabee Sanders was turned away on Friday night, and now the owner gives the Washington Post the backstory. Stephanie Wilkinson was home when her chef called around 8pm to say that Sanders had walked in with a group, and wondered what to do. Wilkinson drove to the restaurant, confirmed that it was indeed Sanders, and asked her staff, "Tell me what you want me to do. I can ask her to leave." Wilkinson notes that some of her employees are gay. "They said 'yes.'" Wilkinson says she asked Sanders to step outside, and though "I was babbling ...

I note that RimJob's quarterly grift has consumed almost all of the current quarter yet again. With just six days left in the month, it's currently at 97% and slowing down - they'll be lucky to have a handful of days without the heavyhanded begging notices all over the place - and I bet they can't wait for the next one to begin a week from today. And yet, after all these years and all those millions of dollars - a user still cannot edit a posting to correct errors or update the content. But a lot of fun was had at Olive Garden, I'm sure........ If anybody still hasn't been booted, like me, for doubleplusungood thoughts, please ask them if the Bush Picturelickers ...
Henry Kissinger’s Kind Words About President Trump: Tactical Strategy Or Hope?

Op-Ed by Catherine J. Frompovich Former U.S. Secretary of State, and apparent New World Order guru of the first order, since God only knows when, Henry Alfred Kissinger [1], has made several “on the record” statements about President Donald J. Trump some folks, if not most, would not expect—nor agree with. Why? Probably because of the unfair and one-sided mainstream media hype and coverage to take down Mr. Trump from actively being U.S. president, an agenda that started during the 2016 presidential campaign season, but perfected in intensively due to the Hillary Clinton criminal activity regarding personal email servers she maintained as U.S. Secretary of State ...
Citizenship Checkpoints Start to Spread Across The Constitution-Free Zone

As the immigration debate continues to rage in America, the application of the Constitution-Free Zone that extends 100 miles inland around the borders of the U.S. is spreading its application into what is blatantly being referred to as “citizenship checkpoints.” This type of “fishing expedition” flies directly in the face of the 4th Amendment which guarantees that “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath of affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the ...

The corporate media is reporting intrepid crusader Robert Mueller is preparing to do a Pontius Pilate on his special council investigation of Russia and the Trump campaign. According to WaPo, Mueller has beefed up his team with a number of prosecutors and the job of prosecuting Russian nationals for supposedly influencing the 2016 election will be fobbed off on them. “The Post reports that the new hires are the first indication of Mueller preparing for the end of his investigation,” WaPo reported. The Trump component is in the process of performing a disappearing act in slow motion. The investigation petered out months ago. Democrats continued to pound on it. ...
Lawsuit Argues Honking Your Car Horn Is Protected By The First Amendment

from the #LEGALIZEIT dept The First Amendment covers a whole lot of area. Since it covers "expression," it doesn't necessarily have to be anything commonly thought of as "speech." It doesn't have to be printed. It doesn't have to be said. Lighting a flag on fire requires no statement of intent. The act itself is expressive enough. Passively gathering information (like recordings or public records) is protected by the First Amendment. Taking photos is a protected act, even if the photos are never used to express anything more than a memory of an event or place. It has been argued nudity or partially-exposed bodies are expressions deserving of protection by ...

Dos Palos, CA – Dos Palos resident George Aguaristi filed a $1 million dollar suit in Merced County after authorities came onto his property without a warrant last month and the killed his 5-year-old pitbull, Samson. The entire ordeal was captured on surveillance cameras installed on the property. To add insult to injury, after killing his dog, whom Aguaristi referred to as his “best friend” and “son,” the officer can be seen urinating on Aguaristi’s fence. Authorities have yet to explain why they came onto the 61-year-old Dos Palos resident’s property despite signs being posted on the front gate noting “No Trespassing” and “Beware of ...

My nine year old grandson just told me this joke: So, three FBI cadets are at their final stage of training for proficiency with firearms, hand to hand combat, and loyalty to the agency. They are brought into a hallway with three doors. The first cadet goes into the first door and comes out and says, “I will not shoot my father”. He is immediately dismissed from consideration. The second cadet goes into the second door and comes out and says I will not shoot my grandmother. He is immediately dismissed from consideration. The third cadet goes into the third door. There are five gunshots and a lot of commotion. The instructors burst into ...

By now most Americans, for or against, get the idea. All an individual or family need do to live in America, and off the avails of the American taxpayer, is to arrive at an approved port of entry and “lodge a legal claim to stay.” That’s it. The same understanding animates an entire, parasitical industry that has arisen to coach the claimants in their claims-making. The refugee and illegal-migrant racket sprung-up on the backs of the American people is Third World cronyism at its best. “The Trump administration plans to pay a Texas nonprofit nearly half a billion dollars, this year, to care for immigrant children who were detained crossing the U.S. border illegally, ...
