[WASHINGTON—President Trump is elevating the issue of immigration, which drove his 2016 campaign, with the aim of animating Republican voters in a midterm election that threatens to derail his agenda if Democrats retake the House. Mr. Trump’s latest comments came Thursday as he warned about an “onslaught” of migrants reaching the southern U.S. border with Mexico and threatened to deploy the military if the caravan isn’t stopped.]

I bet the suspect was a loner living with his mother, a man at the bottom, a man who got tired of being called a deplorable and irredeemable and just recently Joe Biden called his kind a “Dreg of Society.” A dreg. A dreg of society.
He had to hate them for calling him a knuckledragger on TV as he saw all the Antifa violence going down and the foaming at the mouth Blue Mobs roaming the streets busting persons, places, and things.....and he felt threatened and frightened. He felt he was under attack, that he was next to feel the wrath of the fire breathing TDS haters everywhere he turned, egged on by the unhinged.
Poor guy, he got beat down and bullied and ridiculed so much that he just snapped. The Left always bullies the down trodden. Calls them all sorts of unflattering names as they sear looking down their noses at the less fortunate from the Ivory Towers. It’s who they are.
The whole Crooked Hillary colluding with the Deep State to steal an legal election and trying to pin it on Trump along with all the hate oozing 24/7 from Lamestream Media and MSNBC and CNN and Huff-n-Puff Post and all that vermin was simply more than that unstable man could handle. Hanging around the gym was the only place he could do to get away from it all. A lesson for us all. Bullies are not cool. They probably had CNN on at the gym, poor tortured soul.
Moving forward, I eagerly look forward to the new nice civil talk emitting from the Leftinistas. To tell ya the truth, they were beginning to scare me with all that horrid vitriol spawn our way. A violent bunch and not safe to be around. Dangerous on sooo many levels.

Are you saying the accused bomber was justified in his actions because he was driven to it by the left?
Posted by: Paul Emery | 26 October 2018 at 02:58 PM
Well here’s what we know so far......
John Harwood of NBC says he’s an “angry white male” but he (Sayoc) claims to be Filipino and Seminole Indian. The Seminoles are saying they don’t know him but since 1/1024% Indian blood gets you affirmative actioned into Harvard Law and the “Pow Wow Chow” cookbook I think we get to call him Native American.
He’s certainly not nearly white enough to work for the Sierra Business Council!!

Mobilizing the underserved voters -
“The worst tendency in our politics is to tell people what they should believe based on their race or religion or color or creed,” continued the president, “We reject the politics of division, and we embrace the unity of being American.”
The crowd cheered, waving their red “Make America Great Again” hats in the air.
“The Democrats are very nervous. They do nothing for you, and [your vote] was supposed to be automatic,” President Trump said.
“Our agenda of America First belongs to every citizen,” President Trump continued, “Why is [‘America First’ called] racist? — Does everybody in this room agree, you’re living in America. America first, right?”
The audience responded by erupting with cheers and chants of “USA!”

Question: With the felonies on the suspect’s record, how did he remain a registered Republican? He was, under FLA law, to be flushed from the voter rolls unless he applied for his vote to be restored by the Florida Clemency Board. Don’t make sense. Maybe someone sued under the guise of voter suppression and his name was put back on the rolls. More to be revealed
Irony alert. Florida has a ballot initiative to restore voting privileges to the convicted felons, some sitting in prison, lol.
Maybe the domestic terrorist will get pardoned.

Its only been 3 weeks!
On Thursday, nearly three weeks after Kavanaugh's confirmation, NBC News published an article headlined, “New questions raised about Avenatti claims regarding Kavanaugh,” that detailed "inconsistencies" with Swetnick’s claims. In the article, NBC News admitted the unidentified woman repudiated the sworn statement Avenatti provided to the Senate Judiciary Committee on her behalf to corroborate Swetnick's claims.
“Reached by phone independently from Avenatti on Oct. 3, the woman said she only ‘skimmed’ the declaration. After reviewing the statement, she wrote in a text on Oct. 4 to NBC News: ‘It is incorrect that I saw Brett spike the punch. I didn't see anyone spike the punch...I was very clear with Michael Avenatti from day one,’” NBC News reporters Kate Snow and Anna Schecter wrote on Thursday.
"I would not ever allow anyone to be abusive in my presence. Male or female,” the woman told NBC when pressed about Avenatti and his client’s claims, according to NBC’s report.
“I will definitely talk to you again and no longer Avenatti. I do not like that he twisted my words,”
Can we spell disbarment? ;-)

Upright I: “No country can maintain its character and purpose if it has what amounts to open borders. A common language is lost, there are fewer incentives to assimilate and immigrants can bring with them their own agendas and objectives. The hyphenating of various ethnic groups is proof enough that they seem to be less willing to be called simply Americans.” —Cal Thomas
Upright II: “The Democrats’ hatred reminds me of the time someone asked Israel’s Golda Meier when she thought there would be peace in the Middle East. She said it would only happen when Palestinians start loving their children more than they hate the Jews. It’s the same for America in 2018. Our political civil war will end only when the Democrats start loving their country more than they hate Donald Trump.” —Michael Reagan
Braying Jenny: “I think the president of United States should take responsibility for the kind of violence that we are seeing for the first time in different ways. I think the president of the United States has been dog-whistling to his constituency, making them believe that their problems are caused by those people over there.” —Rep.

On a recent campaign swing through the Silver State for gubernatorial nominee Steve Sisolak, Democratic National Committee Chair Tom Perez touted Nevada as a "model" for the blue wave.
Still, Democrats haven't been able to garner mass enthusiasm for their ticket two weeks away from November.
At the top of the ticket both Republican senator Dean Heller and attorney general Adam Laxalt, the GOP's nominee for governor, are favored to win their races.

Candance Owens who is labeled as a White Supremist by the liberal talking heads owns this nice white liberal.
“The emphasis that you place is always on having a discussion on race. You guys are insistent on having a conversation about race, and telling us that we should see, and implying that we should see race everywhere, and I don't agree with that," Owens told Ball, referring to "white, liberals."
"If you don't look at me according to the color of my skin, you would simply ask me how I thought Trump was doing as a president. Instead, you try to drum up a conversation that is surrounded by race by asking me if there are enough black people in the White House," Owens said.
Good one. “If you don’t look at me according to the color of my skin, you would simply ask me how Trump was going as a President. Instead, you...” Excellent thought process, Candance.

Tell them brother! By Gen. Anthony J. Tata
An Arizona State University study issued this week claimed that 25 percent of 769 students surveyed last year had suffered high levels of stress and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) when Donald Trump was elected president two years ago.
As someone who had the honor to serve our great nation in the Army for 28 years – including in combat in Afghanistan and elsewhere with heroic soldiers who suffered physical wounds and the invisible wounds of post-traumatic stress – I find the whole premise of this study to be both absurd and insulting.
The study is an insult to every combat veteran, law enforcement officer, or victim of physical or emotional violence – along with their loved ones. It openly mocks those truly confronted with trauma and experiencing post-traumatic stress.
Seeing the candidate you supported lose an election – in this case Hillary Clinton in 2016 – is not a traumatic event. It’s called democracy. For young people accustomed to coddling and participation trophies, not getting your way might seem unfair. But in reality, it’s not. It’s life.
The most interesting aspect of this silly study was that it never even defined what symptoms students experienced to lead to the conclusion that they were suffering from post-traumatic stress

“We pointed out many of these problems in the reporting to our hometown paper, the Washington Post, and urged them to put serious thought to it. Instead, we got a reply that lectured us on the subtleties of journalism and insisted that they had done nothing wrong. Then, incredibly, they asked if they could sit in on student classes and ask them “about the negative fallout.

I see the State wants dope sold. EVERYWHERE. Screw what the votes said.(prop 64) Which is par for the coarse in Kalif.
Is "big dope" pushing this?
Well Paul,, so much for that "local control" you yapped about.
https://www.theunion.com/news/local-news/truckee-takes-issue-with-states-cannabis-regulations-removing-local-control/
State officials released late last week a final draft of regulations governing the cannabis industry, which could grant legal access to cannabis statewide despite a local jurisdiction's say on the matter.
On Tuesday, the Truckee Town Council voted to send a second letter to the Bureau of Cannabis Control with concerns that the new rules may limit local control over the industry.
"The state is taking away the authority that's been granted to our local jurisdiction," said Mayor Carolyn Wallace Dee.
Proposition 64 granted local governments the ability to allow cannabis and come up with methods, if any, to regulate how these businesses could operate in town limits. Under the Bureau of Cannabis Control's new regulations, cannabis deliveries would be authorized in any jurisdiction in the state, taking away a town's ability to allow or prohibit commercial cannabis.
It must be the money hungry politicians thinking of the revenue.
But dope smokers are going to buy from the dude down the street, and not the high dollar store fronts.
The tax evasion cops will be really working overtime.

López Rivera was not directly linked to any specific bombings.[4][6] Many considered him to be the world's longest-held political prisoner, with a number of political and religious groups calling for his release.[7] U.S. President Bill Clinton offered López Rivera and 13 other convicted FALN members conditional clemency in 1999, which he rejected. On January 17, 2017, President Barack Obama commuted López Rivera's sentence and he was released on May 17, 2017, after 36 years in prison. López Rivera had been incarcerated longer than any other member of the FALN.[8] On February 9, 2017,[9] he was moved from an Indiana prison to Puerto Rico, where he completed the last three months of his sentence under house arrest, before being released on May 17, 2017.[

Posted by: Bill Tozer | 27 October 2018 at 11:04 AM
Can conservatism survive if even making the conservative argument is criminalized? For that matter, can conservative groups compete in the market in the face of Chokepoint 2.0, which could cut them off from financial services? What if conservatives are excluded from law school or medical school? Can conservatives hope to win elections if Silicon Valley muzzles their arguments?
As outlandish as they may seem, those questions are very real. And these actions by New York, which Andrew Cuomo has sought to export to other states, are an abuse of power on par with the Democrats’ “John Doe” investigations in Wisconsin and Barack Obama’s weaponization of the IRS and other federal agencies against the Tea Party.
In essence, the stakes have increased. This is not merely a fight about policy, such as an argument about marginal tax rates or health care. It is now nothing less than a fight for freedom of speech for conservatives.

Sidewalk Labs, an Alphabet division focused on smart cities, is caught in a battle over information privacy. The team has lost its lead expert and consultant, Ann Cavoukian, over a proposed data trust that would approve and manage the collection of information inside Quayside, a conceptual smart neighborhood in Toronto. Cavoukian, the former information and privacy commissioner for Ontario, disagrees with the current plan because it would give the trust power to approve data collection that isn't anonymized or "de-identified" at the source. "I had a really hard time with that," she told Engadget. "I just couldn't... I couldn't live with that."

A bit of a suggestion for AlphabetCorp. They could easily set aside a few hundred acres near their Deathstar and build employee housing. Since they heavily favor new college grads, where to live is a big problem for the recently hired. The company could experiment with various types of urban design concepts and probably help their HR department quite a lot. No doubt the political correctness virus would creep into the algorithms, but you signed away your politics by taking a job there. If they used some sort of AI's for things like crime prevention, no doubt Tay's Law would take effect, but that's a problem for the future.

"Robert Cross" 244, you didn't even wait for the bleeding to stop.
This shooter also hates Trump, perhaps you have more in common with him than you think.

Somebody needs to remind the cross one that these guys were wack jobs long before the 2016 campaign as the evidence clearly shows. The Nazi also hated Trump.
But hey never let a tragedy go unexploited is the motto of the left. So does anyone think that unleashing ANTIFA was a good idea? It was just empowering ALL the wack jobs because they think its open season. Just ask mad Maxine and all the rest. That was a Bernie bro in the Congressional softball game attack. People are going to die because of ______________ (insert what ever bill or candidate) is the DNC mantra now. Does that help?

"The Nazi also hated Trump."
To be fair, I expect that the handful of bonafide Nazis in the US are more pro-Trump than they are the other major Presidential candidates. The real thing were also pro-national healthcare, so the world is a complicated place.
I expect that Pol Pot would have been more in favor of Bernie Sanders than Donald Trump. The real question is whether the Nazis like the Roadrunner or the Coyote better.

This should have the dems worried, very worried -
Chants of ‘We love Trump, U-S-A!’ echoed across the East Room of the White House before, during, and after President Donald Trump’s address to hundreds of young black conservatives.
The President’s address was part of the Young Black Leaders Summit (YBLS), a four-day conference focused on millennial-aged, conservative black Americans. The student-activist group, Turning Point USA, is hosting the event.

It sure didn't take long for the usual suspects to start yapping about gun control.
At least our gun rights are safe with the new SCOTUS lineup.

squirm squirm squirm. Every time some psycho guns down a bunch of people the right squirms like a worm to make excuses and pass the blame on to anything or anyone else. "The killer hated trump" how absurd! It was the hateful anti-immigrant rhetoric trump spewed that sets nutcases off, regardless of the target. It is about hate, not politics but the politics of hate largely contributes to the problem. Every single person who got a bomb had been publicly attacked/threatened by trump. So some nut takes him up on it. That is the politics of hate. What is next, canceling the elections after the Whitehouse mysteriously burns down, martial law, closing the border?
if "never let a tragedy go unexploited is the motto of the left" then the motto of the right is "don't miss the chance to sell a gun and who cares if they kill a bunch of people with it. Money is more important than people's lives anyway."

I dunno. When a person gets arrested for DUI, they usually blame the car, right? In London, they banned guns. Then they banned knives. Now they are banning cars in sections of London.

No one can be surprised that the cross top bun one is not letting facts get in the way of talking points for lefties. "Reasonable arms initiatives' = gun grabs in PC speak. They work so well in Cali and Chicago don't they.

Looks like the Muslims in Gaza wanted to get in on the action on the news of the shooting here.
Plenty of rockets came flying out of Gaza unprovoked.
Israel returned fire, and now the Muslims complain. "It was the other guys!"(translation)

“My point is simply this: No one goes on a bombing spree because of something heard at a political rally. No normal person is moved to murder because he hears an ideological firebrand demonize his opponents. People who engage in mass-murder and other forms of terrorism are either committed to a violent movement or mentally disturbed. In neither event is that attributable to political rhetoric.
Of course we should elevate our discourse. If you want to condemn reprehensible speech because it is reprehensible, I’m right there with you. But let’s not pretend it’s something it’s not. Terrorism and murder are heinous offenses that we punish severely because they involve agency — the people who commit them make a conscious, individual decision, for which they are responsible. We should not, in order to score political points, trivialize such atrocious conduct by suggesting it has been triggered by purple political prose.

YA they never let the facts get in the way of an opportunity for indignation, no matter how fake the indignation is -
NBC News published a bombshell report Thursday that undercut claims made by Michael Avenatti and his client, Julie Swetnick, regarding Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
The company is coming under fire in the wake of the report because the series of events its Thursday report described occurred three weeks ago, before the Senate voted on whether to confirm Kavanaugh. The conservative jurist was confirmed by a narrow 50-48 margin on Oct. 6.
“Was this an intentional attempt to mislead our reporters? Evidence points that way…,” wrote NBC anchor Chuck Todd, apparently suggesting that Avenatti and Swetnick misled NBC journalists.

“What CNN omits from its headline, but is found buried in the article, is that even the previous $10-$19 increases are mostly due to workers making up for subsequently lost hours by working second jobs outside Seattle’s city limits.
Imagine you’re a low-skilled worker who received a cut in hours due to minimum wage hikes, and now you must look for a second or even third job far beyond a reasonable commute. All that to make a meager $10 more a week? Not exactly what I’d call a “boosted income.”
Not only does the cited study show that a quarter of workers were forced to pick up second jobs in effort to offset hour cuts, but it also reports that employee turnover decreased by 8 percent, accompanied with a significant reduction in the overall rate of new entries into the workforce. The study’s authors suggest that Seattle’s minimum wage ordinance brought marginally higher pay to experienced workers at the expense of reduced opportunities for the inexperienced.”

Funny how some people think they are important. I am usually the only person on the comments at the Union against a number of commies and liberals and socialists. Heck I even got physical threats from one dude last week. He published my address. Anyway, I submitted a column as I was told I had been banned from the comments only. We will see. And the outpouring of support for me has been great. Thank you to all on the email and FB. Of course, there are always those that take other peoples thunder as their own and claim some phony high ground. I usuall call them out and keep on trucking. And to all those that sit on their asses and don't help elect decent people, shame on you.

Like any other left wing crazy guy or false flag graffiti emergency, it'll end up in the memory hole. No matter, the Blue Mob is the dangerous thing on a national level, not whacked-out individuals. Things like the 10's of thousands of Trump assassination threats on social media are just kids being kids indulging in internet-era speech. The Mob, on the other hand, is the thing that chases your kids out of restaurants and burns your car.
I see that the free-speech version of reddit (Gab.com) got suddenly kicked off it's hosting service because Nazi shooter guy posted some stuff on it. It seems to me that the Mob's final frontier will be political control of the actual wire to your house.
