[Breitbart] Sunday on CBS’s "Face the Nation," while discussing President Donald Trump’s inaugural address calling for his policy to be informed by putting "America first," Sen. Lindsey Graham, (R-SC) said, "I don’t know what America first means."
Graham said, "To the president, if America first is a throwback to the 20’sand 30’s isolationism when it was first used as a phrase, the world would deteriorate even quicker, if it is a new way of Ronald Reagan’s peace through strength I would like to work with him. I don’t know what America first means." Poor helpless wanker. I could explain it to him over a beer, but I don't drink with people that dull and uninspiring.

Once again, someone from 'across the pond' (UK?)has more insight into the US than the average media mogul.

What the hell is up with SC that they keep electing this turd?
Trump has made it clear that America First means that we shouldn't be pretending to be Globalist Citizens of the world. Of course for some it's not a pretense, yeah graham cracker I'm looking at you.

I can't explain Lindsey Graham. For example, why do the good people of SC keep electing him?
#1 Skidmark. but I don't drink with people that dull and uninspiring. Skidmark, you've got a lot of leeway in choosing drinking partners. No one is as dull and uninspiring as Lindsey Graham.

If you want to drink with someone from SC, try Senator Tim Scott. I saw him speak at the March for Life a few years ago. That man can preach!

Rob Crawford, funny to think about. The losers prefer to be in the minority party. Perhaps their attitude would infect the Democrats and keep them in the wilderness a bit longer.

SC will elect Republicans, period...the only way to get rid of him is a primary challenge, and he faced a divided primary with no strong candidates running against him in 2014. However, he should be very afraid of Mick Mulvaney or Nikki Haley in 2020.

Perhaps they could review all of the FCC licensees for promoting 'hate speech' masked as opinions or cutting journalism. Start with FOX and shepard smith.

...I am going to confess, my brothers and sisters... I am a regular NPR listener. My experience has been that - as long as you allow for windage - they do some of the best reporting out there.
The problem is that one shouldn't have to 'allow for windage' in the first place, and the government shouldn't be paying for anybody to tell me or interpret the news. NPR - and PBS, for that matter - can stand or fall on their own.

Extortion funded media is something that should never have been allowed in America and certainly not after the Berlin wall fell.

Trump Should End Government Funding of NPR's Biased News
Rather than devoting precious time on the funding of individual programs one would think the President has more pressing issues. Besides, relatively speaking, NPR/PBS are tiny spuds. Granted the Executive administers and regulates as they see fit but allocation of funds for government programs should be primarily left to the Legislative branch. And fergawdzsake we don't need another term with department level bureaucrats thinking they alone control appropriations.

The way I understand it the National Endowment for the arts spends a large chunk of their money in Manhattan, a very wealthy location dominated by one political party that could afford to pay for their own arts.
If the NEA survives the money should be reallocated to school art programs. Let the left get in a twist about that.

My wife is an artist. I never thought of applying for an NEA grant. Too late now, I guess. Oh well.

PBS, NPR, NEA, NEH all products of the Great Society spending spree. 20 trillion in debt and you can't even make the easy decision to get out of programs you no longer can afford. It's all affordable, on other peoples' money, till it isn't anymore.
Caution: This video not suitable for family or office.
[Powerline] I was traveling home from Texas yesterday and missed the various women’s marches, but I heard that actress Ashley Judd went totally bonkers at the Washington DC rally. The video of the speech rant is below, and it is indeed off-the-chart crazy.
But you should approach it with an open mind and entertain the possibility that she’s actually a mole from the Trump campaign. I think the circumstantial evidence indeed supports this hypothesis.
Think about it for a moment. The whole thing was a far left hootenanny, but no one is really going to pay attention to unrepentant Communist Angela Davis (yup--she was there), or even Gloria Steinem, who has to be about 145 years old by now. So the Trump campaign infiltrated the program with Judd, and supplied her with a "poem" from a 19 year old in Tennessee who will no doubt go on now to win a MacArthur genius award. And the crowd loves it! Best part is, as you can see at the beginning she even takes in Michael Moore.

Somebody posted a video on FB yesterday that showed the Ashley rant, embedded into a Star Trek episode. They kept cutting from Ashley melting down to the bridge crew doing facepalms or looking amazed at the stupidity.
My wife asked me to turn the volume down so she didn't have to listen to it.
My comment was that Ashley needs to up her meds.

According to Instapundit:
"In fact, Trump’s basically gaslighting them. Knowing how much they hate him, he’s constantly provoking them to go over the top. Sean Spicer’s crowd-size remarks are all about making them seem petty and negative."
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
