“VD” DAY – THANKS IN ADVANCE TO HARRY REID AS JUDGE KAVANAUGH WILL BE SEATED

UPDATE: Judge Kavanaugh is to be the next Supreme Court Justice. Last night President Trump, in an eloquent presentation, nominated the Judge to replace the retiring Kennedy. What better nomination can you get than Judge Kavanaugh. A man of integrity, judicial common sense and a record to boot. Congratulations to both the President and the Judge. Of course the Democrats will babble with the mouth, but in the end they will choke on their own words.

 

President Trump’s nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to replace retiring Associate Justice Anthony Kennedy has set the stage for a bruising confirmation battle, as Senate Democrats and liberal groups vowed to resist what could be a dramatic and long-lasting rightward shift on the Supreme Court.

Within seconds of Trump’s announcement in the White House Monday night, the far-left political action committee Democracy for America called Kavanaugh, 53, a “reactionary ideologue” whose confirmation would “directly lead to the deaths of countless women with the dismantling of abortion rights.”

Kavanaugh, who is Catholic and formerly served as a law clerk for Kennedy, has long said he would broadly respect legal precedent, including Roe v. Wade. In his time in the Bush White House and his twelve-year stint on the influential D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, Kavanaugh has variously alarmed both pro-life and pro-choice advocates.

PELOSI VOWS TO ‘AVENGE OBAMA’ IN SUPREME COURT SHOWDOWN

Top Senate Democrats, who have long said they would not seriously consider any of the candidates Trump was considering, also vowed to fight Kavanaugh, citing what they called an anti-abortion record.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., called for killing the nomination.

“If we can successfully block this nomination, it could lead to a more independent, moderate selection that both parties could support,” Schumer said.

 

Tonight the Democrats will squirm like little salamanders in the mud. VD day is at hand; ” Victory over the Democrats”- their ideology of legislating from the bench will suffer a near fatal blow; a day where the conservative legacy will be cemented on the Supreme Court; a day honoring our Founding Fathers by interpreting their tome as it should be. But before we rejoice we must wait a few months, say by the end of September when the latest nominee is confirmed. It is now Bader-Ginsburg’s turn to crash and burn. A very sweet scenario to look forward to.

TUNE IN TONIGHT TO SEE THE BIG SHOW! IT BEGINS AT 9 P.M. EDT. YOU WON’T BE DISAPPOINTED

TAKE THIS “CRYING CHUCK SCHUMER” – A SUPREME COURT JUSTICE WHO DOESN’T LEGISLATE FROM THE BENCH

Monday will be a day of infamy! President Trump will be the prime focus when he announces the new Supreme Court pick. Three are in the running, but there is a high probability that a woman (Judge Amy Coney Barrett) will be the one. Nothing would be better than having another woman joining the liberal triumvirate – a conservative one for a change. How about that in “your face” Crying Chuck?

As you recall Schumer’s old time pal, Harry “the pugilist” Reid, was the one who rolled out the “nuclear option.”

Sen. Harry Reid, remarks on Senate floor, Nov. 21, 2013

After years of threats and retreats by both parties, the Democratic Senate majority on Nov. 21, 2013, enacted a controversial rule change called the “nuclear option.”

The change eliminated the filibuster — a blockage of floor action, typically by the chamber’s minority party — for executive branch nominations as well as judicial appointments short of the Supreme Court. Under the new rule, the Senate only needs a 51-vote majority instead of a 60-vote supermajority to end a filibuster and move to a final vote on a nomination.

Schumer, in mid-2007, even suggested that because Democrats were “hoodwinked” by the confirmation testimony of Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito, no more nominees should be confirmed for the balance of George W. Bush’s term, even though he had 18 months left. The point was that it was the end of a presidency:

“For the rest of this President’s term and if there is another Republican elected with the same selection criteria let me say this: We should reverse the presumption of confirmation. The Supreme Court is dangerously out of balance. We cannot afford to see Justice Stevens replaced by another Roberts; or Justice Ginsburg by another Alito. Given the track record of this President and the experience of obfuscation at the hearings, with respect to the Supreme Court, at least: I will recommend to my colleagues that we should not confirm a Supreme Court nominee EXCEPT in extraordinary circumstances.”

Bottom line: it’s pretty clear the debate in 2016 revolved around nominations made in a presidential election year. Democrats are simply spinning a false narrative.

KICKED OFF THE VOTING ROLLS FOR NOT VOTING – WHAT’S WRONG WITH THAT?

Imagine if you will, a voting roll with 5000 potential voters, but on election day for the past five years only 500 of those on the roll voted. Others signed up the day before or at the venue – provisional voters for the time being. Letters were sent out to those who didn’t vote in the past two years asking for their status. And low and behold only 550 were returned.

In the interest of efficiency 4500 voters were delisted. This action torched the liberals. And why? For one thing, a no show voter gives the  lying cheating thug progressives the opportunity to take on someone else’s identity. Yes, voter fraud! They then cast a ballot for the liberal Democrat. WAIT A MINUTE SAYS THE SUPREME COURTOHIO HAS THE RIGHT TO PURGE THEIR ROLLS OF NO-SHOW VOTERS. This has enraged those of the Progressive persuasion.

In a 5-4 decision written by Justice Samuel Alito, the Supreme Court ruled Monday that Ohio and other states are allowed to purge voters from their rolls who are inactive and do not respond to requests to confirm their residency. 

Ohio has removed more than two million voters from its rolls since 2011, with black voters more likely to be purged than white voters. A number of civil rights groups argued that the decision would likely aid Republicans but hurt Democrats and voters of color. Republicans typically have an advantage in low-turnout races.

Still, Alito wrote in his decision that Ohio had done its due diligence and “removes registrants only if they have failed to vote and have failed to respond to a notice.”

Of course the expected wailing will continue, but one fact remains; nothing in the decision is preventing an eligible citizen from voting. Re-register is all there is to it. That is the twist.  A BIG WIN FOR OUR SIDE, THANKS GUYS!

ISLAMIC JIHADIST PREVENTED FROM ENTERING THE U.S.A.

Trump scored a major Supreme Court victory on Tuesday. The 

 

unanimous  decision handed down by SCOTUS was a WIN for Trump and all patriotic Americans. Although we can’t take down our guard, rest assured that Trump will do what has to be done to protect us. If Clinton was on the thrown vicious Jihadists would have been welcomed into our country with abandon. We are grateful to the President for standing up against those who wish us harm.

Additionally, the  House passed Kate’s law throwing a blow against sanctuary cities. The other bill, which would deny federal grants to sanctuary cities, passed with a vote of 228-195 with 3 Democrats voting yes and 7 Republicans voting no.

illegal immigrant crackdown

House Republicans took action Thursday to crack down on illegal immigrants and the cities that shelter them.

One bill passed by the House would deny federal grants to sanctuary cities and another, Kate’s Law, would increase the penalties for deported aliens who try to return to the United States.

Kate’s Law, which would increase the penalties for deported aliens who try to return to the United States and caught, passed with a vote of 257 to 157, with one Republican voting no and 24 Democrats voting yes.

Kate’s Law is named for Kate Steinle, a San Francisco woman killed by an illegal immigrant who was in the U.S. despite multiple deportations. The two-year anniversary of her death is on Saturday.

President Trump called the bill’s passage “good news” in a tweet, adding “House just passed #KatesLaw. Hopefully Senate will follow.”
