From Brexit to Trump, Elite Contempt Shines Through

Not long ago, to support Great Britain’s departure from the European Union remained the hoppy heady preserve of the corduroyed English fruitcake. Only the niche, and utterly mental clung to such opinions. Those trifling oddities, blimpish and better suited to reliving colonial exploits in faraway lands, were not of polite society. To be a Euroskeptic invited the label of weirdo, or, if they liked you—“eccentric.” That argument was settled. Britain, and indeed the world, owed and pinned its future not to outdated concepts such as nationhood, borders, or common culture­­—oddities, pined for by oddities. To be British was embarrassing,

I´m not so sure I agree with the author´s conclusion that we´ve already won, but both countries are on the path to victory. I think we might have an edge on our British cousins, we´ve got President Trump, the antidote to elitism.

As Turtle Boy plots stabbing America´s Hero in the back with a veto override, I don´t imagine President Trump is surprised by his mendacious promise to back the National Emergency if PDT reopened the government.

TK and I are awaiting our Commander in Chief´s call for patriot reinforcements in D.C. The Grand Cherokee is gassed up and ready to go. (Its white and we call it "Elizabeth Warren".)

It seems, to me anyway, that the elites define their lives as successful if they make tons of money and force their so-called inferiors, namely we deplorables, to associate with people that we dislike, distrust, fear or have nothing in common with. Oh, and by skiing in Gstaad and swilling wine in Davos with George Soros. They are not only shallow, insipid, selfish and uninspiring they are dangerous.

# 1, do you KNOW that McConnell is plotting to stab the president in the back? Is he going to reverse his own vote and twist some arms to get to 67 on the override? If so please let us know where you got this information. Thanks.

He´s right. We already won. The immensity of the 2016 election results were so varied in their ramifications, so fried the circuitry of the graft establishment political machine that even now, three years later, people can´t get their minds around what happened. The libs thought that they were going to win it all; the decisive victory that would cement their rule for the next generation. Instead they got decapitated. The Dems are in no position to win back power, and are wandering about like the dazed survivors of nuclear war. We won, completely and decisively. The only thing left for us to do is to fan out across the battle space and shoot the wonded.

#3 - I got my information from Conservative Treehouse. Sundance proposes the possibility there are 8-9 more Repuke senators ready to override the veto so Turtle Boy can embarrass the president. Due to Turtle Boy´s lifetime membership in the Swamp, I´d say its even money that Sundance is right.

Biden swore to overhaul immigration. But
immigrants remain in limbo.

Since he took office, President Joe Biden has sworn to overhaul draconian Trump-era policies, crafting a kinder, gentler immigration system where everyone — from refugees to asylees to students to billionaire CEOs — is welcome. There’s just one problem: Despite the massive immigration package he introduced on Day One and the flurry of executive orders that soon followed, Biden's policies have yet to catch up with his rhetoric. To be sure, Biden inherited a complicated puzzle — a convoluted system designed to do the exact opposite of what he wants it to do. He’s only been in office for six weeks. And much of his energy has been focused on battling the

Arizona and Montana are taking legal action (pdf) to block new Biden administration immigration regulations, saying that these would cause negative consequences for the states. The new rules would limit the capability of ICE to detain some illegal immigrants unless they pose a threat to national security, entered through the border after Nov. 1, or committed aggravated felonies. The Biden administration says that the rules don’t impair arresting or deporting people, but the officers in the field would need to request permission from their superiors to arrest people outside of the aforementioned cases.“If asked about the poorest policy choice I’ve ever seen in government, this would be a strong contender,”

Get ready, black America! You’re about to get forty acres from a fool.

A new term has entered the political lexicon in recent months, and it appears to have left-wing activists sputtering with rage.

As Joe Biden constructs his new administration, individuals from the Obama administration are quietly resurfacing in positions of power. Some of these people are well known, others lesser so. But they all played critical roles at various times during the Obama administration. Susan Rice, Obama’s national security adviser and now the “top adviser to the president on domestic policy and related decisions,” has admitted to participating in the unmasking of members of the Trump transition team. Unmasking is the process whereby a U.S. citizen’s identity is revealed from collected surveillance. Initially, Rice publicly denied the allegations, claiming that “I know nothing about this.

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
