Liberal blinders to keep the faithful from getting distracted.

I think we can all agree that many, many people today are wearing blinders. Especially in the media.

That is more than evident when we see the distorted media coverage of the opening of The US Embassy in Jerusalem.

The strategy employed by Israel the last 70 years has been the same that Lincoln wanted to take. We don't attack first, but if you attack we will defend ourselves (eye for an eye) all the while the PLO gets weaker and Israel gets stronger.

However, after Fort Sumnter Lincoln called for volunteers to go fight, this put the 7 slaves states that hadn't left the Union in a predicament -- do we send our men to go fight the other Southern States? That call precipitated the Civil War.

In the same way will the US and others recognizing Jerusalem be a "Fort Sumnter" event for the Arab nations allied to the US?

No wonder Trump is a China first president, ordering the bailout of the large Chinese company ZTE, who was shut down for violations of the Iran sanctions. Trump says, “Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done” (lifting the legal sanctions against XTE). All because China just committed to a billion dollar loan for a Trump resort in Indonesia.

WASHINGTON – A mere 72 hours after the Chinese government agreed to put a half-billion dollars into an Indonesian project that will personally enrich Donald Trump, the president ordered a bailout for a Chinese-government-owned cellphone maker.

“President Xi of China, and I, are working together to give massive Chinese phone company, ZTE, a way to get back into business, fast,” Trump announced on Twitter Sunday morning. “Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done!”


See, a communist is in the WH.

"Just about everything is odd about Trump’s support of Chinese firm ZTE" ~Washington Post online

It's odd that Trump, who campaigned on saving millions of U.S. jobs, suddenly says he cares about a few thousand Chinese jobs.

It's odd that Trump, who championed “America First,” is worried about a single Chinese firm.

It's odd that Trump, who has spent months berating the Chinese for stealing U.S. intellectual property, is coming to the rescue of a Chinese telecom company that's trying to compete with American companies like Apple.

It is odd that Trump, who has put extensive sanctions on North Korea and Iran, seems to be willing to forgive ZTE, a company that admitted it illegally shipped telecom equipment to Iran and North Korea. Trump's own Commerce Department punished ZTE in April for “egregious behavior,” including repeatedly lying to the U.S. government.



Maybe he's one of those democratic communists, like Putin.

If you have a problem with every single word he says and are paranoid about every single twitch of his then you will have no credibility. Why don't you just wait until there is solid evidence of wrongdoing? There are plenty of people trying to dig the dirt.

It's a clear violation of the emoluments clause.

Well then He will be impeached. If the Republicans ignore "a clear violation" of the emoluments clause they will be destroyed in the midterms and Trump will be impeached. That is how it works. This is why Mueller is telling him he doesn't have the authority to indict him. Mueller can provide the evidence of violations of high crimes and misdemeanors and then the elected officials can impeach him.

Should we post that "Peach Foty Fie" video again?

Trump has to be guilty!

You heard it first on CNN.

Or was it that British tabloid?

But what happened to all the other atrocious scandals and "violations of high crimes and misdemeanors" which we have heard about in the last 2 years? Russian collusion? Putin's puppet? Melania's stiletto's?

Poor, poor, Hillary! She has now informed us of some 41 reasons why she lost the election. Reason #41: She is a capitalist! Egads!

Stay tuned for the next segment ...

And isn't it odd that the Trump Org is getting big loans from China for a Trump resort in Indonesia?

I thought the US was trying to prevent the spread of communism but I guess these days communism pays too well.
