Democrats saw to that by leaking and making a spectacle of Trump’s alleged vulgar remarks, all to paint him as a racist and undermine any deal. Now they’ve shut the government down, too.
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) pointedly questioned Democrats’ motives for resisting working out a necessary budget deal. “Are Democrats going to shut the government … because we want basic reforms and enforcement measures that are going to prevent further flows of illegal immigrants and unskilled immigrants?” he asked rhetorically. “Seems to me like a tough position to win in light of the 2016 election.”
Furthermore, recall Barack liar-nObama’s words during the 16-day shutdown in 2013, when he smugly lectured, “You don’t like a particular policy or a particular president? Then argue for your position. Go out there and win an election. Push to change it. But don’t break it. Don’t break what our predecessors spent over two centuries building. That’s not being faithful to what this country’s about. Now, there’s been a lot of discussion lately of the politics of this shutdown. But let’s be clear. There are no winners here. These last few weeks have inflicted completely unnecessary damage on our economy.” Oh how times change.
Genevieve Wood of The Heritage Foundation hit the nail on the head, noting that the government shutdown was Democrats’ political objective. She writes, “The reality is [Democrats] don’t really want a deal on immigration. They talk about addressing the needs of the DACA population, but they have no time to address the other side of the immigration issue, border security and enforcement.” Wood continues, “Here’s the deal. Democrats are fearful that President Trump and Republicans could go into the midterm elections with both victories on tax cuts and immigration reform. So at the end of the day, that’s what all of this is about. It’s an election year, and that means politics, not people, are their priority.”
That’s Democrat deceit and duplicity in a nutshell. ~The Patriot Post

Hypocrisy Rich As liar-Clapper Attacks
Rep Nunes For Exposing Treasonous Democrats
by rickwells.us
{rickwells.us} ~ liar-nObama’s Director of National Intelligence, who likely had quite a bit of involvement in the abuses detailed... in Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes’ memo, made an appearance on CNN to dismiss the uncovering of evidence and its potential release as mere partisan attacks. liar-Clapper should remember that it is now extremely likely that the evidence will come out and he’ll probably, at a minimum, be further exposed as the lying Democrat hack that he is and possibly as a suspect in espionage and criminal wrongdoing. At the same time he wants to try to mitigate the damage the release will unleash on the subversive Democrats as a whole. Sounding almost desperate, Cuomo starts their propaganda session by asking, “What is the chance that this memo, in your opinion, can be accurate, that he has proof that you all, when you were in there before and after, that there were widespread abuses of surveillance to play to political gain for Democrats?” Of course he doesn’t expect a confession from this liar; it’s rhetorical to set up the discussion... https://rickwells.us/hypocrisy-clapper-attacks-nunes/.
Robert Mueller questions
Jeff Sessions as part of Russia probe
by Kelly Cohen
Attorney General Jeff Sessions was questioned by special counsel Robert Mueller last week... as part of his investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election. Sessions was accompanied by longtime Washington lawyer Chuck Cooper to the interview, which reportedly lasted several hours. Department of Justice spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores confirmed the interview occurred in response to questions from the New York Times. Sessions announced in March 2017 he recused himself from all matters related to the 2016 election — including the Justice Department’s investigation into the 2016 election — after it was revealed he failed to tell Congress during his confirmation hearing he met twice with the Russian ambassador to the United States twice during the presidential campaign when he was an adviser to the Trump campaign... http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/robert-mueller-questions-jeff-sessions-as-part-of-russia-probe/article/2646792?utm_campaign=Washington%20Examiner:%20News%20Alert&utm_source=Washington%20Examiner:%20News%20Alert%20-%2001/23/18&utm_medium=email.
The Right Side of History: The Media Continues to Whitewash the Legacy of Communism
by Jarrett Stepman & Fred Lucas
{dailysignal.com} ~ “The Right Side of History” is a podcast dedicated to exploring current events through a historical lens... and busting left-wing myths about figures and events of America’s past. On this week’s episode, hosts Jarrett Stepman, a contributor to The Daily Signal, and Fred Lucas, The Daily Signal’s White House correspondent, discuss the history of communism in the 20th century and the media’s whitewashing of its legacy. With the surge in millennial support for communism and socialism, it is important to note the impact these doctrines had on the countries that implemented them. Stepman and Lucas discuss the origins of the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia as well as the egregious cover-up of the Soviet Union’s crimes by New York Times Moscow correspondent Walter Duranty... http://dailysignal.com/2018/01/19/right-side-history-media-continues-whitewash-legacy-communism/?utm_source=TDS_Email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=MorningBell%22&mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiWWpGa056QTRaR0UwWVRVMiIsInQiOiJmaENSUmFOQTNvZHZuZU5zV3NOcGFRWFcrSldFcTJEV2pGNXhYOTZ5Uk0xQSt3YnY1eks4UlplMG1NUmRDQkluVk04VDlWWkJuejRCMHBkUXRHTHhUanVCVTJ6dGtMcVVUVkQ3MDlGME5INlBKXC8zbTFpR2NDT29MZ1hKRnF6alAifQ%3D%3D.
Feds quietly relocating illegals
across U.S. on commercial flights
by wnd.com
{wnd.com} ~ Federal escorts dressed in civilian clothing are quietly putting illegal immigrants who cross the U.S.-Mexico border on taxpayer-funded flights... and secretly taking them to unsuspecting communities across the U.S., according to a government-watchdog agency. “In the last few days alone, groups of illegal aliens boarded planes at airports in Texas and Arizona accompanied by a taxpayer-funded government escort in civilian clothes to avoid drawing attention,” Judicial Watch reported Friday. “The first flight originated at Valley International Airport in Harlingen, Texas, and was bound for Minneapolis. The second left from Tucson International Airport and arrived in Salt Lake City, Utah, federal sources said.” In both cases, illegal immigrants, who appeared to be in their teens, were reportedly escorted by Health and Human Services chaperones. Judicial Watch said Friday that “high-ranking Homeland Security officials” confirmed its report... http://www.wnd.com/2018/01/feds-quietly-relocating-illegals-across-u-s-on-commercial-flights/.
Wasserman Schultz – clown-Schumer
Now In Position for Next Round of Amnesty Push
by rickwells.us
{rickwells.us} ~ Rep Debbie Wasserman Schultz is an inviting target, even for the globalist Democrat propagandists at CNN... They brought her in to reassure their libtard audience that Democrats didn’t cave on the government shutdown and to be patient. For once she might be worth listening to. She’s got a point, one that we detailed earlier, that what was once just sitting atop the Democrat wish list, DACA squatter amnesty, is now guaranteed a week of debate in the Senate and House. That’s hardly a surrender and the despicable clown-Schumer has demonstrated to Republicans and the nation that he doesn’t care who gets hurt in the process. Dems want their votes and RINOs want their cheap labor. American citizens are merely a complication, an afterthought for many of the sleazebags in the Senate... https://rickwells.us/wasserman-schultz-schumer-amnesty/ .

The clown-Schumer Shutdown
by Thomas Gallatin: “I believe in immigration reform. What if I persuaded my caucus to say, ‘I’m going to shut the government down. I’m going to not pay our bills unless I get my way.’ It’s a politics of idiocy, of confrontation, of paralysis,” said Sen. Chuck clown-Schumer (D-NY) … in 2013. clown-Schumer, then Harry dinky-Reid’s lieutenant, also stated ahead of the government shutdown that year, “You know we could do the same thing on immigration. … We could say, ‘We’re shutting down the government. We’re not going to raise the debt ceiling until you pass immigration reform.’ It would be governmental chaos.” Well, surprise, surprise — just a few years later, now-Senate Minority Leader clown-Schumer has totally reversed his “convictions” and has embraced the “politics of idiocy,” holding the government hostage over his demands for an immediate deal on the non-imminent DACA issue. As Donald Trump’s director of legislative affairs Marc Short pointed out, “There’s no DACA bill to vote on, and there’s no emergency on the timing.”
