[Daily Caller] Forty-one House Republicans voted against a bill Friday that would have secured funding for President Donald Trump’s border wall, addressed Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and included E-verify, among other conservative provisions.
Members voted on an amended version of GOP Reps. Bob Goodlatte of Virginia and Michael McCaul of Texas’s bill that provided more border security funding, only granted DACA recipients a temporary protected three-year legal status with no pathway for citizenship ‐ which moderate Republicans are fervently asking leadership to provide ‐ and included other features.

The bill failed in the House in a 193-231 vote Thursday. (RELATED: Goodlatte Bills Failed In The House)
Here the Republican members who voted against the bill:
Paul Gosar of Arizona
Andy Biggs of Arizona
Jeff Denham of California
David, Valadao of California
Steve Knight of California

Barbara Comstock is my worthless representative; the irony is that leftist routinely protest her office on Route 7 stating she is a rightwing conservative.

Amnesty and add-ons, the bill-killer issues? Would the original Goodlatte bill have been passed? We don't know.
[BOSTONHERALD] This week, liberal celebrities, politicians and members of the media put on a clinic on how to behave badly. On Wednesday, actor Peter Fonda posted about the president’s 12-year-old son on Twitter. “We should rip Barron Trump from his mother’s arms and put him in a cage with pedophiles and see if mother will stand up against the giant (expletive) she is married to.”
Fonda also called on his followers to intimidate the children of federal immigration staff and border agents, tweeting, “We don’t have to take the agents kids, we only need to surround their schools and scare the (expletive) out of them and worry the (expletive) out of the agents. ... We need to scare the (expletive) out of them! Need to make their children worry now.”
He also attacked White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, referring to them in vulgar, sexist terms. He called for Sanders’ children to be taken away and Nielsen to be put in a cage, to be poked by passersby, “Naked and whipped by passersby while being filmed for posterity.”
As is always the case with progressives and progressivism, the victims are women and children.
Hollywood elites were vulgar and crude as expected, but closer to home a local politician took a snarkier, more cynical approach to the events along the border.
U.S. Rep. Joseph Kennedy III tweeted a picture of President Trump in a meeting with GOP lawmakers and administrative officials. He commented, “You might not know this about me, but I’m a white guy. And as a white guy, I would encourage @realDonaldTrump & his fellow GOP white guys to consult a not-white-guy in their efforts to enact comprehensive immigration reform in less than 24 hours.”
That Kennedy would use skin color to evaluate the worth of any group is not only repugnant, but it speaks to a darker ideology of intersectionality that presumes to impugn people based on factors other than their actual thoughts and actions. It is a bleak way to see the world, and equivalent, tangential associations would make Kennedy culpable for the misdeeds of his lineage, including voting against the Civil Rights Act of 1957 as his great-uncle JFK did or creating the current immigration mess we have now by being the driving force behind the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, which his great-uncle Ted was.
Former Celtics star Kevin McHale was set upon by hysterical media types after being spotted at a Trump rally in Duluth, Minn., Wednesday. Nathaniel Friedman of GQ Magazine tweeted, “Kevin McHale is extremely stupid for attending a public Trump event. That, as much as his politics, is why he should never work in the NBA again.”
The website Deadspin piled on, taking a shot at Boston along the way: “Celtics great Kevin McHale enjoys old feeling of being in an arena full of screaming bigots.”
Many celebrities attacked Ivanka Trump, including director Judd Apatow: “My dad kidnapped babies and I said come on dad, that’s not cool. And he said to shut up. So I guess I tried. @IvankaTrump is a cult member. She is a coward.” RTWT. There's lots more.

As almost always the right does not understand what it faces, calls them Liberals instead of Marxists.
That is not understanding anything.
And that was not a tantrum was hate.A threat.

Yes, they are totalitarians not liberals. If you don't agree with them, then you are untermenschen. We've seen this before. It doesn't end well.
[PRESSTV] The Congress of the United States is largely made up of traitors like the Republicans who are owned by the Zionist money, according to Dr. Kevin Barrett, an American academic, researcher and political analyst.
Dr. Barrett made these remarks in an interview with Press TV on Friday while commenting on a report which says a group of senior Republican politicians in US Congress have asked the administration of President 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... to add Iran back on the Financial Action Task Force (FATF)'s blacklist and reverse one of the key agreements that paved the way for the 2015 nuclear deal between the Islamic Theocratic Republic and major world powers.

Barrett published by PRESS Tv, a Iranian-owned news outlet. There's a ringing endorsement (with a bit of sarc).
Barrett has an uncanny resemblance to Stephen Paddock (of Vegas infamy). Barrett, a bit of an academic gadfly?

Dr. Kevin Barrett is a favourite of Iran PressTV. The Muslim 9/11 conspiracy theorist is a former lecturer at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, where for some years he attracted the attention of Ann Althouse.. Nowadays, according to the internet, he hosts obscure radio shows and writes books.
[Right Scoop] Here’s some insane rhetoric from an insane Democrat candidate for the New York governor’s office.
.@CynthiaNixon refers to ICE as a "terrorist organization" while calling for its abolition. Full story at 7p on @InsideCityHall pic.twitter.com/oStc5XPfS9

Watch below:
I mean, even New Yorkers think that’s insane!!! This idiot just knows that the corrupt scam artist Andrew Cuomo can’t be toppled unless you make absurd statements to capture media attention. Even that won’t get her close in this election.
Cynthia Nixon to @theView: "I think we need to abolish ICE."
"They have strayed so far from the interests of the American people and the interests of humanity‐we need to abolish it." https://t.co/J3CyOvcPHJ pic.twitter.com/0CXQdD4eQw

Good luck with that, idiot. You’re gonna need a lot more than screechy rhetoric to defeat Cuomo’s mob ties..

Go rip off the doors and gates of these people's abodes. They don't believe the rest of us are entitled to control who comes in goes in our home, they don't need it either.
[Free Beacon] Cary Kennedy, a former state treasurer now running for governor in Colorado, said she has been "blessed" to be able to send her own children to private school. But at the same time she is running on an education platform solidly opposed to voucher programs, which help move some children out of a failing public school and into a private school.
Many on the right have long criticized these kinds of arrangements as fundamental hypocrisy on education policy, something Kennedy was asked about at a recently televised debate.
"Cary, you're opposed to vouchers in education, and yet you sent your own kids to private school through eighth grade," said Shaun Boyd, a reporter with the local CBS affiliate. "What do you say to parents who want that same opportunity for their kids but can’t afford it?"
"I don't support taking public money‐public taxpayer money‐out of the public education system to send it to private school in the form of vouchers." Kennedy went on to say she believes voucher systems leave the overall public school system with "diminishing resources."

"I don't support taking public money‐public taxpayer money‐out of the public education system to send it to private school in the form of vouchers."
As it should since the public 'education' system then no longer has the high cost of 'educating' the children who use vouchers.

"I don't support taking public money‐public taxpayer money‐out of the public education system to send it to private school in the form of vouchers."
Because if she did the teachers' union would withdraw their support for her candidacy.
