[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] Non-U.S. citizens won't be allowed to vote on local matters in College Park, Md., despite city council officials voting in favor of a proposal that would have allowed it earlier this week.
The College Park City Council voted 4-3 Tuesday night to allow legal permanent residents and illegal immigrants colonists to participate in municipal elections. One council member did not vote.
"For most Council actions, a simple majority of Councilmembers present must vote in favor of an item for it to be adopted," the city said in a news release. "However, there's no worse danger than telling a mother her baby is ugly... changes to the Charter have a different requirement. The City Charter was amended in June to require the affirmative vote of six elected officials to change the Charter."
The council had planned to vote on the proposal in August but threats against council members pushed the vote back.

[MSN] While promoting her newly released memoir, Hillary Clinton ... former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, sometimes described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as a crook... has placed blame on several factors for her loss to Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... last November ‐ from her own mistakes, to Russian interference in the U.S. election, and the late intervention by then-FBI director James Comey.
But Clinton has also spoken candidly about how deep-rooted sexism played a hand in her defeat, and about the double standards she faced as the first woman nominated by a major party for president in America’s 240-year history.
In an interview with the New York Times ...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... published Saturday, Clinton spoke further about how misogyny is used as a tool to hold women back.
"This has to be called out for what it is: a cultural, political, economic game that’s being played to keep women in their place," Clinton said.
"The idea that women have to fit certain stereotypes; that’s a weight around the ankle of every ambitious woman I’ve ever met," she added. "We get constant messaging our whole lives: You’re not thin enough, talented enough, smart enough. Your voice isn’t what we want to hear."

Oh, bullshit. For every male chauvinist who voted against her specifically because she's a woman, there are a hundred dim-witted bubbleheads who voted FOR her specifically because she's a woman.
Hillary lost because a sufficient number of Americans-- just barely sufficient-- woke up to the fact that she's a corrupt, lying phony who's about as genuine as a $3 bill.

Clinton: There's a 'game that’s being played to keep women in their place'
Yes and BTW thank you God for keeping this schrew (a small mouselike insectivorous mammal with a long pointed snout and tiny eyes. ) out of the WH.

Just when I begin to think this woman has limits to her hubris and chutzpah, she goes over the top once again and exceeds herself.
I'd love to see that guy with the hook from the Gong Show pull her off the public stage. Are none of the investigations into her nasty, foul, disgusting, filthy, vile corruption ever going to bear fruit?
[FOXNEWS] Princess Chelsea Clinton falsely tweeted Friday that the Michigan House of Representatives had voted to allow emergency medical providers choice in treating patients, specifically giving EMTs the option to deny treatment to gay patients.
"Absolutely appalling," the former First Daughter tweeted, "Michigan House Passed Bill Allowing EMTs To Refuse Treatment To Gay People."
The story Clinton cited was from a website for the LGBT New Now Next Awards, and was posted in 2014. When followers pointed out the story was old, Clinton deleted her tweet.
Not only was the story old, but the actual premise was deeply flawed. What the Michigan House actually passed was a garden variety Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), which would have exempted religious individuals from laws that infringed on their religious beliefs.

Stupid is as stupid does.
You can't fix stupid.
Etc., etc.
[TheAmericanMirror] Not only was Paul Nehlen not invited to attend a Wisconsin Republican Party event, he was actually banned.
The election challenger to Speaker Paul Ryan tweeted an email he received from Kim Travis, chairman of the 1st District Republicans.
"Dear Mr. Nehlen," the Friday email begins.
"Thank you for your interest in the 1st District Fall Fest. Respectfully, we are declining your request to attend the event. We will return your payment. We stand by our policy of being able to decline requests in order to manage and deliver the best experience for all of our guests," Travis writes.
"I’m a team player, a good Republican, but I’m not welcome to a GOP event?" Nehlen wrote before encouraging supporters to call Travis.
Nehlen says he is "running to the right" of Paul Ryan, and has made work visa reform a centerpiece of his campaign against the Speaker.

They wouldn't do this if they weren't scared. The plan to challenge Ryan for his nomination is a good one, and they will fight like hell and use every dirty trick in the book to stop us. They learned their lesson from Trump and Sanders: play by the rules and lose, or cheat and win.

[Lifezette] In an attempt to criticize President Trump for how he is handling the escalating tension with North Korea, Hillary Clinton embarrassed herself by demonstrating she knows little about the Korean peninsula.
During an interview on "The Rachel Maddow Show," the failed 2016 presidential candidate said "The president has basically insulted and attacked South Korea. South Korea is literally, you know, within miles of the border with North Korea. They would be so at risk if something were done by Kim Jong Un."
Of course, South Korea borders North Korea ‐ it is not miles away.
Clinton did not blink at this mistake, nor did Maddow correct her. Watch the embarrassing gaffe above.

Seoul, the capitol of ROK, is close to the border, artillery range close -- a brainfart.
Obviously a brainfart, but Hillary! seems to be making many of them lately. Will Tina Fey and SNL parody this? Not likely...
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.
