MSBNC Pathetic Attempt To Demonstrate

“Armed Teachers Don’t Stand A Chance”

by rickwells.us 

{ rickwells.us } ~ The MSNBC nag, Stephanie Ruhle, is clearly a victim waiting to happen anytime she is beyond the reach of an immediate response to a 911 call... She’s clueless in her discussion with the supposed expert but that doesn’t prevent her from spewing her leftist, anti-gun crap. It’s MSNBC, accuracy and knowledge and are only passing considerations in their broadcast content. She compares and AR-15 to a handgun in some sort of attempt to discredit the notion that armed teachers are better than unarmed teachers during a school shooting because they won’t have an AR-15. She compares the speed at which a round is delivered, as if firefights are conducted in a manner of a Revolutionary War era duel, in which both sides wait for the “go sign” and the guy with the AR-15 would somehow duck out of the way before the handgun round reached him...She needs to search and seek Israel use of guns for teachers. https://rickwells.us/msbnc-armed-teachers-chance/

President Trump Tweets About 

FISA Abuse – AG Jeff Sessions Responds

by sundance

{ theconservativetreehouse.com } ~ Boy howdy, it only takes a tweet from POTUS to get everyone fired up on the AG Sessions battle-front; including AG Sessions himself...  It seems, generally speaking, responses to the tweet vary in direct relationship to the disposition of the reviewer: My personal view is somewhat different than most.  President Trump is highlighting a genuine frustration, not necessarily with Jeff Sessions per se’, but rather within the institution Jeff Sessions dutifully represents.  This is, after all, what happens when citizen government runs into the bureaucracy of the institutions. We are seeing nothing more than the typical frustration of a ‘results oriented president’ who, like many of us, has had enough of these seemingly endless investigations and wants the DOJ to get-on-with the indictments, arrests and prosecutions. The frustrations are real; however, the punditry opinion of those frustrations is mostly ‘fake news’...  https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/02/28/president-trump-tweets-about-fisa-abuse-ag-jeff-sessions-responds/

Why Turkey Wants to Invade the Greek Islands

by Uzay Bulut

{ gatestoneinstitute.org } ~ There is one issue on which Turkey's ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) and its main opposition, the Republican People's Party (CHP), are in complete agreement... The conviction that the Greek islands are occupied Turkish territory and must be reconquered. So strong is this determination that the leaders of both parties have openly threatened to invade the Aegean. The only conflict on this issue between the two parties is in competing to prove which is more powerful and patriotic, and which possesses the courage to carry out the threat against Greece. While the CHP is accusing President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's AKP party of enabling Greece to occupy Turkish lands, the AKP is attacking the CHP, Turkey's founding party, for allowing Greece to take the islands through the 1924 Treaty of Lausanne, the 1932 Turkish-Italian Agreements, and the 1947 Paris Treaty, which recognized the islands of the Aegean as Greek territory. In 2016, Erdoğan said that Turkey "gave away" the islands that "used to be ours" and are "within shouting distance." "There are still our mosques, our shrines there," he said, referring to the Ottoman occupation of the islands...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/11954/turkey-threats-greek-islands

Is liar-nObamaCare on Its Last Legal Leg? 

by Jordan Candler:  When the Supreme Court upheld liar-nObamaCare by a 5-4 vote, Chief Justice John Roberts inexplicably preserved it. In his warped determination, “The Affordable Care Act’s requirement that certain individuals pay a financial penalty for not obtaining health insurance may reasonably be characterized as a tax. Because the Constitution permits such a tax, it is not our role to forbid it, or to pass upon its wisdom or fairness.” (Keep in mind, Barack liar-nObama argued just the opposite — that it wasn’t a tax.)

          liar-nObamaCare has withstood a healthy dose of lawsuits and severe backlash, but this was by far the most despicable, extreme and surprising vindication afforded by the judicial branch. Justice Roberts professes supposedly conservative bona fides, but his arguing in the law’s favor by invoking the federal government’s tax authority — rewriting the law in order to save it — was about as absurd as it gets. But this week there was an interesting twist: Could Roberts’ legal rendering ultimately result in liar-nObamaCare’s demise?
          Congressional Republicans nullified the health insurance mandate late last year courtesy of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which a new lawsuit is hinging upon in hopes of finally derailing liar-nObamaCare in its entirety. According to Reuters, “A coalition of 20 U.S. states sued the federal government on Monday over liar-nObamacare, claiming the law was no longer constitutional after the repeal last year of its requirement that people have health insurance or pay a fine.”
          Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and Wisconsin Attorney General Brad Schimel are taking the lead on this case. Paxton points out, “The U.S. Supreme Court already admitted that an individual mandate without a tax penalty is unconstitutional. With no remaining legitimate basis for the law, it is time that Americans are finally free from the stranglehold of liar-nObamaCare, once and for all.”
          This is an intriguing argument. As Reuters explains, “The individual mandate in liar-nObamacare was meant to ensure a viable health insurance market by forcing younger and healthier Americans to buy coverage.” In other words, the very structure of the health care law is contingent on the mandate, which is why liar-nObama pushed so vigorously for it. But since Congress has since repealed the mandate, Justice Roberts’ contention that liar-nObamaCare “may reasonably be characterized as a tax” is no longer applicable. Which prompts the question: Under what authority is liar-nObamaCare still “constitutional”?
          Unfortunately, our elected branches’ perpetual failings and the proliferation of judicial activism means the states’ new lawsuit against liar-nObamaCare isn’t a slam dunk. However, if Rule of Law finally prevails — and if by some chance liar-nObamaCare returns to the Supreme Court and Justice Roberts is forced to reconcile his previous vote — this would be the ultimate poetic justice. And tax reform will be praised more than it already is.  ~The Patriot Post
