Truth IS: Epstein Grime Primarily Belongs to the DEMS’ Grimy Clintons!

EPSTEIN IS CLINTON’S PROBLEM, NOT TRUMP’S

by  John Hinderaker  at PowerLine:

The Democrats have tried to smear President Trump by association with Jeffrey Epstein, while ignoring the fact that Bill Clinton was a frequent flyer on the Lolita Express. It turns out that Trump actually threw Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago:

President Trump was asked about Epstein — a billionaire who rubbed shoulders with celebrities and world leaders — while speaking to reporters on Tuesday.

“I knew him like everybody in Palm Beach knew him. He was a fixture in Palm Beach. I had a falling out with him a long time ago,” Trump said. “I don’t think I’ve spoken to him for 15 years. I wasn’t a fan. I was not a fan of his, that I can tell you. I was not a fan of his.”

Dana Perino asked James Patterson, who wrote a book about Epstein, about the falling out to which Trump referred:

Score it as another swing and a miss for the Democrats.

America’s Major League FOUL BALL…ITS MEDIA!!

The media are a major contributor to the huge crisis at the border

A few months ago, most of the media, in collusion with other Democrats, were perpetuating the blatant falsehood that President Trump was just lying about the problems at the border.  The mantra that was continually spewed to the public was that it was a “manufactured crisis.”  The purpose of this lie is to indoctrinate the thought into the public’s mind that Trump and his supporters are racist.  The lie allowed Democrats to obstruct funding for the wall and obstruct the building of shelters and enforcing the law, making the crisis far worse.

It doesn’t matter that Trump is trying to enforce the laws Congress passed, that ICE and the border agents are doing their jobs.  The only reason this is happening is that Trump is a racist and he doesn’t want people who don’t look like him to come into the country.  Under Trump, the country continues to accept over one million people each year to legally become citizens.  These immigrants come in all colors.  Facts haven’t mattered in a long time to most of the media.  Electing Democrats is all that matters.

As the crisis has continually become more serious, the same people who say Trump was making up the crisis now blame Trump, the border guards, and DHS for the problem.  What a load of crap!  The crisis has been compounded because Democrats refuse to provide funds, refuse to enforce laws in sanctuary cities and states, and encourage families and unaccompanied children to take the dangerous journey by telling them they can come without risk.  Now the presidential candidates are offering free health care and promised they won’t be criminally charged.  It will just encourage more to come.

Many Democrats, including Obama, Schumer, Durbin, and Bill Clinton, have all talked about the need to rein in illegal immigration.  They have used the same words as Trump.  Yet they were not called racists, and Hollywood didn’t protest.  The hypocrisy is obvious, but as always, the facts are hidden from the public by most of the media.

Democrats had the White House from 2009 to 2016.  They had complete control of Congress in 2009 and 2010.  Yet they did not pass comprehensive immigration.  It appears they like immigration as an election issue.

Here are just a few examples of the lie about the manufactured crisis.

Pelosi and Schumer dismiss Trump’s ‘manufactured crisis’ on border security

After the media and Democrats continually lied about no crisis, Pelosi lied to the public that they never said there wasn’t a crisis at the border.  She knows that the media never hold Democrats to account for their blatant lies and inaction.

Nancy Pelosi: ‘We Have Never Not Said There Was a Crisis’ at U.S.-Mexico Border

Here are some things the media didn’t care about during the Obama-Biden eight-year reign that they pretend to care about now: separation of powers, the rule of law, children separated from their parents, children in cages, and deaths of immigrants on the border.

Doesn’t it indicate fake outrage when the media supported Obama no matter what he said or did?

Something journalists and Democrats didn’t care about when Obama was in office and don’t care about now is all the people who have been killed by illegal aliens each year.

President Obama compounded the immigration problem by dictatorially changing immigration law when he repeatedly said the Constitution wouldn’t allow him to do it.  Anyone with a brain the size of a pea knew that people weren’t going to send back the parents or other siblings who didn’t meet the criteria in DACA, but the media and other Democrats cheered for this violation of the separation of powers.

Obama officials rushed to explain photos from 2014 that went viral showing locked-up immigrant children — and Trump’s facilities look the same

President Obama Speaks on Immigration Reform

What’s more, “it’s meant the heartbreak of separated families,” the President stressed.

20 Times Breitbart Reported on Migrant Deaths During Obama-Biden Years and No One Cared

Why don’t the media report all the lives saved by border patrol agents each year?  The answer is that obviously it doesn’t fit the Democrat agenda to label Trump and his administration as racists, and the Democrat agenda is all that matters.  It would be inconvenient to tell the people the truth.

Border Patrol Agents Rescued 4300 Migrants from Life-Threatening Situations in 2018

Border Patrol agents carried out more than 4,300 rescues of illegal immigrants along or near the U.S. border with Mexico during Fiscal Year 2018, CBP officials reported on Friday. This is up from more than 3,400 the prior year.

Journalists and other Democrats always play the race card to gin up racial hate and violence in order to keep minorities on the plantation. They need their votes to win so they will do and say whatever is necessary to get those votes. The manufactured crisis lies, along with the lie about what Trump said at Charlottesville, are deplorable, irredeemable and disgusting.

Then, after journalists and other Democrats lie to trash Trump and divide the country, they lecture about how polarizing and divisive Trump is. They have trashed and lied about Republicans for decades in order to get votes so they should quit lying or implying that this all started because of Trump.

Here is a riddle: What two common characteristics do the following lies have in common?

Settled science lies, Russian Collusion lies, Obamacare lies, manufactured crisis lies, the hands up don’t shoot lie, the lie that Trump said some Nazis are good, the tax cuts only benefit the rich, and across the board income tax cuts cost the government money.

The first characteristic is that they are all obvious lies. The second is that they are all Democrat talking point lies to push the Democrat agenda and elect Democrats.

When will journalists do their job working for the American people instead of campaigning for Democrats and big government?

Fascistic Dems Favored at Leftist Yale?

Tucker Carlson: How Did CNN’s Chris Cuomo Get Into Yale?

 

FOX News Chanel’s Tucker Carlson wonders why it is so easy for the children of powerful families to get into elite colleges.

TUCKER CARLSON: If you’ve ever watched Chris Cuomo on CNN, you may have wondered: how did this guy get a TV show? Sure, he’s got well-defined abdominal muscles, and good for him. But he can barely speak English. There are nights when Cuomo emits entire paragraphs that mean nothing at all. Just pure gibberish, like pig Latin, or dogs barking. It’s remarkable. Was this guy educated in the United States? Let’s check Wikipedia. Wait it a second. The entry says that Chris Cuomo went to Yale University in Connecticut. That can’t be right. Yale has famously high admissions standards. Your kids couldn’t get in. No chance. They’d have to be incredibly smart — geniuses, really. Is Chris Cuomo a secret genius? Does he have some amazing talent that’s invisible on TV? Maybe he speaks flawless Urdu? Or has a deep grounding in particle physics? Or can calculate pi to the final digit? Actually, no. Chris Cuomo can’t do any of that.

It turns out that he has an even more impressive qualification: His father was the governor of New York. If you want to get into a top American college, it’s best to have a parent who’s a well-known Democratic politician. That’s the most effective credential of all.

Don’t take our word for it. Ask Dante DeBlasio, son of Bill DeBlasio, the incompetent mayor of New York. There’s no evidence the younger DeBlasio did remarkably well in high school. And yet, like Chris Cuomo, he somehow got into Yale.

Once there, Dante DeBlasio found himself surrounded by people just like himself: the thoroughly average children of other prominent liberals. According to press reports, That would include the offspring of at least three Democrats currently-serving in the US Senate: Michael Bennett, Amy Klobuchar and Sheldon Whitehouse. All of them sent kids to Yale.

Their colleague Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, meanwhile, is one of a stunning number of senate Democrats who’ve sent children Harvard. Senator Bob Menendez of New Jersey is a Harvard parent. So is senate minority leader Chuck Schumer. Schumer sent both his kids to Harvard. Barack Obama sent one of his. So did former New York governor Eliot Spitzer.

The all-time record, though, must go to former Vice President Al Gore. Gore sent four. Imagine that: Four kids in a row to Harvard. What are the odds of that occurring in nature? Statistically, it’s about as likely as being hit by lightning every single day for a year. Yet somehow the Gore family pulled it off. Congratulations.

Andrew Cuomo, the sitting governor of New York, sent one of his kids to Harvard, but the other two went to Brown. That’s also an Ivy League university that your kids could never get into. Brown is, as they say, “highly selective,” at least for the children of non-politicians.

But for pure, 200-proof exclusivity, nothing beats Stanford University outside San Francisco. You could live your entire life in this country and never meet a single person who went to Stanford. It’s that rarified. And yet here’s the amazing part: Hillary Clinton’s daughter breezed right in. How did Chelsea do that? Was it her formidable brainpower? Check out her twitter feed, and judge for yourself.

Now, there’s a chance that Chelsea is intentionally misleading us. It’s possible that her entire public persona is performance art — a subversive, Borat-style parody of mindless lifestyle liberalism. If that’s the case, Chelsea Clinton is utterly brilliant. She’s the Jonathan Swift of our time. But it’s also possible that Chelsea isn’t joking at all.

It is possible, indeed even probable, that she is every bit as dull and self-serious as she seems. In that case, not only is Chelsea Clinton profoundly sub-brilliant, you’ve got to wonder how she holds a paying job. How did someone like that get into Stanford?

You might have the same question about some of the kids at Georgetown University, here in Washington. Georgetown’s alumni magazine is available online, so the next time you’ve got a minute, take a look. You’ll recognize many of the names: Biden, Pelosi, Kennedy. These are the children of famous Democratic politicians. Are they impressive, hardworking kids who deserve to be at one of America’s most prestigious universities? Maybe some of them. Maybe not.

That’s irrelevant. They’re the offspring of prominent Democrats. That’s why they’re at Georgetown. How does this happen? Because our meritocracy is a sham. It’s fake. They tell you that only the most accomplished students get into these schools. They’re lying. Their friends’ kids get first dibs. Fellow members of their social circle. Kids whose families can help them down the road. The children of sympathetic politicians are an obvious priority for admissions officers. These are the same politicians who funnel many billions in tax dollars to colleges and universities every year. Letting a senator’s kid into Harvard is smart business. The quid quo pro is obvious. It’s a form of unregulated lobbying. Remember the varsity blues scandal in California, where a group of socially-anxious soccer moms tried to game college admissions? This is far more corrupt, except nobody’s going to prison for it.

So how many Chris Cuomos get into Yale every year? We don’t really know. Like almost everything about higher education, it’s opaque. Prestigious schools can pretend they admit only the most qualified applicants, because nobody can prove otherwise. The real admissions numbers are secret, hidden from public view.

Elite colleges are like public companies that lie about their balance sheets. They’re cooking the books to defraud shareholders. In this case, the shareholders are the entire country. A handful of schools form the gateway to success in America. If you go to Harvard, you are all but guaranteed to make more over the course of your life than someone who didn’t. It’s that simple. When you rig the admissions system, you’re rigging American society. You’re creating an impenetrable class system for your own benefit. And that’s exactly what they’re doing.

You often hear progressives say they worry about income inequality. They don’t mean it. How do you know? Because if the left really cared about the stratification of American society, they’d make college admissions transparent. They’d force Stanford to open the books and show the rest of us how they’re assembling this year’s freshman class. And yet Democrats in Congress haven’t done this. They seem strangely incurious about the process. It’s like they don’t really want to know how it all works. In fact, they already know precisely how admissions works, and they strongly approve. Why wouldn’t they? Their kids are befitting from it.
