[BREITBART] Actress Kirstie Alley has blasted Hollywood’s left-wing tastemakers over their disdain for supporters 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... , comparing their refusal to work with Republicans as comparable to refusing to work with gay people.
In a tweet on Friday, the Cheers actress said that Hollywood’s insular approach to politics amounted to a form of hypocrisy.
"I refuse to be part of the Hollywood asshats who can’t see that ’NOT working with Republicans’ is as stupid and NASTY as ’REFUSING to do business with gay people,’ she wrote on Twitter. "STOP ACTING above the FRAY ya damn hypocrites...WE are the same species! let’s help each OTHER ya damn yahoos."
Alley’s call for unity comes as Hollywood progressives continue to ramp up their attacks against Trump and his supporters. Will & Grace co-stars Debra Messing and Eric McCormack demanded last week that the identities of those attending President Donald Trump’s fundraiser next month be made public.

Hollywood has always had blacklist that were politically motivated. During the McCarthy era the actors were blacklisted by Hollywood, not the government. This is how they work. Get on the casting couch, or be blacklisted. Give them your kids for the casting couch and let them have their way with them, or get blacklisted. Fall in line with the politics of the day, or get blacklisted. Its the Hollywood way...

There were many Communists in Hollywood. Supposedly when Hitler invaded the Soviet Union, some famous actress exclaimed "The Motherland has been invaded!"

[BREITBART] The president of Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, argued in favor of safe spaces in a recent op-ed, suggesting that they "promote intellectual diversity" and remove "the threat of harassment or intimidation." Campus climates across the country after the spread of safe spaces, however, have shown an increase in sensitivity, hostility, and Groupthink among students, leaving conservative students to bear the brunt of "safe space policies."
Wesleyan University President Michael S. Roth defended college "safe spaces" in a recent New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... op-ed, arguing that while the concept of a safe space can be taken too far, "it still underlies the university’s primary obligations," and that schools should prioritize them, in order to "promote intellectual diversity."
Roth maintains that it is a school’s priority to take the "conscious steps to protect and nurture students emotionally as well as physically should be welcome" in order to prevent perpetuating "environments where the entitled continue to dominate those around them and students never learn how to build a more equitable, inclusive community."
"We must promote intellectual diversity in a context in which people can feel safe enough to challenge one another," says the university president. "Students should be able to participate in argument and inquiry without the threat of harassment or intimidation."
In his op-ed, the university president goes on to acknowledge critics of safe spaces, describing them as people who "claim to worry about the preservation of free speech on campus," as well as the likelihood of safe spaces encouraging "the isolation of groups of students from questions that might take them outside their comfort zones."

When they appeal to prevention of harassment and intimidation, I always note that they are never able to provide a single instance where this has actually happened.

[Breitbart] Sunday on MSNBC, House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC) wondered if the Bill of Rights would pass in today’s "climate."
Clyburn said based off of conversations he has all the time, he believes there would be "strong support against the Bill of Rights" among people who would like to see many of the guarantees "uprooted."
"I really believe sincerely ‐ the climate that we’re in today ‐ if the Bill of Rights, the first 10 amendments of the United States Constitution, were put before the public today, I’m not too sure that we would hold onto the Bill of Rights," Clyburn declared during the interview with MSNBC. "Especially when I see what people are doing with the Second Amendment and no telling what they would do with the First Amendment."
MSNBC’s David Gura responded, "You really believe that? That’s a startling statement. You believe that?"
"Absolutely," Clyburn replied. "There would be a strong support against the Bill of Rights. Go through the Bill of Rights and I’ll tell you I run into people every day who would like to see so much of those guarantees uprooted."

They really wouldn't want to change the Bill of Rights while Trump is in office. "CNN isn't protected any more? Get me the commander of the 82nd Airborne."

If he doesn't like the Bill of Rights, he is free to submit amendments to the Constitution to remove them.

I believe he is correct.
I also believe that it is good the founding fathers added it when they did (which at the time was hotly debated) so it can keep people like Clyburn from completely depriving us of those rights.

82nd? Nah. 75th Rangers training regiment is in the state and would be plenty effective at visiting some responsibility on CNN's seditious and lying disinformation factory and its commissars.
[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] Washington DC senior Jayne Zirkle was forced to leave her high school after continued harassment and threats from her liberal classmates for supporting President Trump. And Jayne says the teachers were not helpful. She even had instances where the liberal teachers lowered her grades because she supported the president.
The principal of a high-performing magnet high school located in the Foggy Bottom neighborhood of Washington, D.C. has jeopardized the safety of one of his students because of her support for President Trump.
Jayne Zirkle, a senior at School Without Walls High School, known as "Walls," will spend the rest of the school year taking classes online. The severity of threats and harassment coming from her classmates has made it impossible for her to attend the public school without fear of physical harm.
Separate but unequal.
When Zirkle went to D.C. public school leaders, including the principal of Walls, Richard Trogisch, she presented them with 200 pages of evidence outlining harassment, threats, and cyber-bullying from fellow students.

Conservative adults learn to live stealthily in blue areas lest they get their tires slashed and cars keyed. She's learning that same lesson the hard way.

I recall a time when a young girl was hated, threatened and harassed severely just for daring to go to a school where she would challenge long-held prejudices and violent beliefs of a mono-culture...
September 10th.
In Birmingham Alabama.
1963.
Welcome to the ideological successors to the Democrats of the past, such Democrat luminaries as Bull Connor and Exalted Cyclops of the KKK Robert Byrd.

Principal Trogisch went into action when swastikas and other "hateful paraphernalia" showed up in the school's bathrooms. The Walls principal contacted the Metropolitan Police Department to investigate the matter.
Anyone else thinking he drew the swastikas himself? What a hateful little man.

For better or worse, the Democratic establishment apparently has decided it has no choice but to embrace the former vice president. Can he be propped up and pampered for the next 14 months?

They are making the same mistake they made with Hillary. His health will fail. So what happens when he falls over dead just before the election? That will be fun...

..technically one of the reasons for the Electoral College. We don't elect Presidents, we elect the electors.
[BREITBART] On Saturday, New Hampshire Democratic Party chair Raymond Buckley opened his state’s Democratic convention by suggesting President Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... is the devil.
Buckley said, "First off, I want to apologize. Two weeks ago, Donald Trump was here, and we did our best to get the sulfur smell out of here, and I apologize, but they’re still a lingering scent." Ha ha. Hoogo said it first, ya commie tool
He added, "But the good news when everyone is inside, you’re not going to see an empty seat like we saw with Donald Trump. Sorry, Donald, but once again New Hampshire Democrats whooped you."

After 8 years of Obama, it will take more than three to remove the stench.
Proverbs 6:16-19 New International Version (NIV)
16 There are six things the Lord hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
[POLITICO] Former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford on Sunday announced he will challenge Donald Trump ...the Nailer of NAFTA... for the Republican Party’s 2020 presidential nomination becoming the third member of his party to do so.
Sanford told "Fox News Sunday" he believes the GOP needs to have a conversation about what it means to be a Republican, adding, "We have lost our way."
The former governor, who was also a congressman from 1995 to 2001 and 2013 to 2019, highlighted a need to discuss the country’s ballooning debt and deficits, as well as Trump’s turn toward trade protectionism.
"One of the hallmarks of the Republican Party and the conservative movement has always been: How much do we spend?" Sanford said, offering a nod to the famed University of reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel... economist Milton Friedman.
The candidate also said he wants to shine a light on how "institutions and political culture are being damaged by this president."

Once again: not a single word about the plight of the American people. All he can think about are the interests of his own people, and that's as far as his horizons go.

Mark Sanford lost his way when he betrayed his family for a house wrecker, adulterous woman from Argentina.
Mark Sanford then showed his true colors when he opposed the so called "Muslim emigration ban" of Donald Trump
which would help prevent rewarding people who hate America by giving them US citizenship
so they could use our freedoms to undermine our country.
Promotion of the emigration of people into the United States of people who I consider to be anti-American
was a favorite program of Obama because Obama hates Christians just like he hates the state of Israel.
That is why Obama did what he did.
What is Sanford's motivation for challenging Trump?
Is it better than an Argentinian affair?

...I'd say the voters returning a Congress so oriented since they are the 'purse' of the republic. However, since the GOPe controlled both the house and executive for many years, I didn't see any real attempt to solve the deficit issue. Won't be solved till it implodes and the people reject indentured servitude for the generosity of the ruling class.

And Sanders is just the guy to lead the Pubs out of the wilderness (sarc)? That's rich. Maybe he should think about changing parties and become one of the horde of horrible Dems running.
