“ In telephone surveys , the share of Democrats saying this is higher than at any point since the question was first asked by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there has been a corresponding decline in the share saying the U.S. stands above other nations.

Chuck Schumer is trying to take back the Senate .

The truth of the matter is that Chuck Schumer is willing to destroy executive privilege .
I can only imagine what he would be saying if this were a Democratic President .

The National Security Advisor to the President , his Chief of Staff , the Secretary of State and the OMB Director .
Four people essential to any presidency , and he couldn ’ t give a damn if Trump loses executive privilege .

“ I think 2020 is going to be a blow out , ” he said .
“ By the time impeachment is over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , there is going to be a backlash… Most Americans jealously guard the right to pick their own leaders , and I think they ’ re going to hold it against politicians who take that right away.

The event featured a myriad of golden pens handed out as mementos, smiles, picture taking, and fist pumps.
“Nancy Pelosi’s souvenir pens served up on silver platters to sign the sham articles of impeachment,” White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham tweeted in disgust.
Cruz took particular aim at those little commemorative pens, and crushed the Democrat charade in all of twelve words.
“Given the circus in the House, I’m surprised she didn’t use crayons,” he tweeted.

Pelosi Criticized by CNN
Honestly, Cruz’s addition of circus tent and crayon emojis is next-level.
He wasn’t the only one calling out the House Speaker for the pomp and circumstance surrounding an event she insisted was somber and caused her to pray daily.
Even normally compliant CNN hosts called the optics “jarring” and “off-message.”
“It was unusual to see that kind of ceremony and handing out the pens and smiling for a picture in this kind of situation where the House Speaker has bent over backwards to say publicly and privately this is somber, this is not a time for celebration,” host Dana Bash said.
“You heard Nancy Pelosi say that this is a sad and tragic day, and then there she is holding up the pen and having photographs taken with those pens, so it is a little off-message,” her guest added.
McCarthy mentions that Pelosi has said Trump is impeached “forever.” Pelosi, walking down aisle to sit back down next to Schiff, says loudly enough that we can hear in gallery, “He is,” & pumps her right hand in the air.

Aside from golden pens, Pelosi was caught pumping her hand with excitement when she announced that President Trump is impeached “forever.”
California Rep. Maxine Waters (D) was seen holding her pen aloft, an unerasable smile stapled to her face.

“This afternoon’s show from Pelosi and crew underscores just how bogus their impeachment charade is,” the Republican National Committee said in a statement.
More than a charade, it is, as Ted Cruz suggests, a clown show.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-01-10--NY Democrats Passed A Bill That Automatically Registers People Applying At The DMV To Vote (Updated)

New York Senate Democrats passed a bill that , if signed into law , would automatically register people to vote when they interact with the DMV .
This comes just months after governor Andrew Cuomo signed the ‘ Green Light Bill ’ into law which allows illegal aliens in New York the right to a driver ’ s license .
The summary of the bill states its intent to “ establish an electronic personal voter registration process integrated within designated agency applications.
” Documents processed at the DMV and Department of Health would apply .
This legislation “ would create @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a person submits an application to the Department of Health or the Department of Motor Vehicles , ” CNN reports .
Individuals applying for a driver ’ s license would have to physically “ opt-out of voter registration at the point of service ” per the bill ’ s summary .
The bill calls for a check box which applicants would need to select in order to ensure they are not registered .
Obviously this is not fail-safe as the individual would have to pro-actively check a box to opt out and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a non-citizen were to register or pre-register using the system .
The bill will now move on to the Democrat-controlled Assembly , and if passed , could be signed into law by Cuomo .
It would take effect two years after becoming law .
Republican state Senator Jim Tedisco , who voted against the legislation , previously explained that granting licenses to illegals is a slap in the face to people who come to this country legally .
“ Giving driver ’ s licenses to those here illegally sends the wrong message to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are trying to do the right thing and have been in line for quite some time to become American citizens , ” he said at the time of the ‘ Green Light Bill ’ being signed into law .
Will this new legislation allow for voter fraud issues ?
If so , it would be absolutely reprehensible .
“ Some people have more concerns than others – I don ’ t believe that there ’ s this great conspiracy , but I think the system is susceptible to those that are undocumented , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to vote in New York State , that would automatically be registered , ” Gallivan said .
Erie County Clerk Mickey Kearns , a longtime opponent of the ‘ Green Light Law ’ points out a conflict between the two bills that could create a problem .
The Political Insider in June warned of the potential of voter fraud if illegal aliens are given a driver ’ s license , citing reports of a loophole in the law that would allow it .
Rensselaer County Executive Steve McLaughlin said at the time , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and I ’ m guaranteeing within a year , they ’ re going to start to say let ’ s just let them vote , they ’ re here anyway.

Republicans Concerned About Fraud
Republican state Senator Jim Tedisco, who voted against the legislation, previously explained that granting licenses to illegals is a slap in the face to people who come to this country legally.
“Giving driver’s licenses to those here illegally sends the wrong message to honest, law-abiding citizens and those who are trying to do the right thing and have been in line for quite some time to become American citizens,” he said at the time of the ‘Green Light Bill’ being signed into law.
Will this new legislation allow for voter fraud issues? If so, it would be absolutely reprehensible.
State Senator Pat Gallivan expressed concerns on the matter.
“Some people have more concerns than others – I don’t believe that there’s this great conspiracy, but I think the system is susceptible to those that are undocumented, and here, undocumented and not eligible to vote in New York State, that would automatically be registered,” Gallivan said.
Erie County Clerk Mickey Kearns, a longtime opponent of the ‘Green Light Law’ points out a conflict between the two bills that could create a problem.
“What it did is it put it in conflict with the Green Light Law because according to the Green Light Law, we are not allowed to ask someone what their status is, and in this bill, it says we will have to ask for status.”

Democrats have pointed out that section 5 of the bill would prevent non-citizens from being automatically registered.
That section below reads: “Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, no agency designated under this section shall transmit to the state board of elections any application for registration for a person that is … ineligible to register or pre-register to vote by reason of age or not being a citizen of the United States.”
“5 NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER LAW TO THE CONTRARY, NO AGENCY DESIGNATED UNDER THIS SECTION SHALL TRANSMIT TO THE STATE BOARD OF ELECTIONS ANY APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION FOR A PERSON THAT IS, BY VIRTUE OF DATA COLLECTED BY THE AGENCY DURING THE SAME APPLICATION FOR SERVICES OR CHANGE OF ADDRESS OR NAME TRANSACTION, DEMONSTRABLY INELIGIBLE TO REGISTER OR PRE-REGISTER TO VOTE BY REASON OF AGE OR NOT BEING A CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-01-17--Leftists Attack Stephen King for Saying Quality More Important Than Diversity

Stephen King felt the wrath of his fellow liberals when he tweeted that quality is more important than diversity “ in matters of art.
” “ I Never Consider Diversity in Matters of Art ” As a screenwriter , Stephen King can nominate people and films for the Oscars , and decided to tell the world about his thought process when considering who to put forward .
“ As a writer , I am allowed to nominate in just 3 categories , ” he tweeted .
“ For me , the diversity issue… did not come up .
That said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matters of art .
Only quality .
It seems to me that do otherwise would be wrong , ” King continued .
This was , of course , unacceptable to the left who immediately pounced on him .
Some described King as “ backward and ignorant , ” with others writing that his comments were “ painful to read.
” King was forced to backpedal later , saying that the most important thing that the creative industries could do is “ make sure everyone has the same fair shot , regardless of sex @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t win awards if you ’ re shut out of the game.
” This still didn ’ t satisfy the baying crowds however .
The only Hollywood celebrity who seemed to be defending Stephen King was none other than Superman himself , Dean Cain .
Cain told Tucker Carlson that the backlash that King was receiving was “ terrifying.
” “ If you are not woke enough , you are out .
He has put some of the most woke tweets out there ever and he has said something that ’ s patently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ judged on art , not diversity .
It should be about the art .
It ’ s what Martin Luther King Jr. asked for .
A day when you are ‘ judged by the content of your character , not by the color of your skin ’ , ” Cain added .
Carlson asked whether the diversity mentality was a concern for those who care about art , and Cain agreed .
“ Denzel Washington won best actor because he was the best actor , ” he said .
“ I wouldn ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he ’ s black .
Yeah , he ’ s my favorite actor , but it ’ s not because he ’ s black .
It ’ s because he ’ s the best actor I know .
I don ’ t think he wants to be judged just because he ’ s black.
” RELATED : Outrage After No Women Are Nominated For Best Director At The Oscars I almost feel sorry for King .
He ’ s gone along with the liberal dogma for most of his life , and bashed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now at every opportunity , like calling him a “ vile , racist , and incompetent bag of guts ” and a “ horse ’ s ass , ” but then says one thing that ’ s out of line and gets immediately # cancelled by the woke Twitterati !

Stephen King felt the wrath of his fellow liberals when he tweeted that quality is more important than diversity “in matters of art.”
“I Never Consider Diversity in Matters of Art”
As a screenwriter, Stephen King can nominate people and films for the Oscars, and decided to tell the world about his thought process when considering who to put forward. “As a writer, I am allowed to nominate in just 3 categories,” he tweeted. “For me, the diversity issue… did not come up. That said, I would never consider diversity in matters of art. Only quality. It seems to me that do otherwise would be wrong,” King continued.
As a writer, I am allowed to nominate in just 3 categories: Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Original Screenplay. For me, the diversity issue–as it applies to individual actors and directors, anyway–did not come up. That said… — Stephen King (@StephenKing) January 14, 2020
…I would never consider diversity in matters of art. Only quality. It seems to me that to do otherwise would be wrong. — Stephen King (@StephenKing) January 14, 2020
This was, of course, unacceptable to the left who immediately pounced on him. Some described King as “backward and ignorant,” with others writing that his comments were “painful to read.”
When you wake up, meditate, stretch, reach for your phone to check on the world and see a tweet from someone you admire that is so backward and ignorant you want to go back to bed. https://t.co/nPXOeAebkb — Ava DuVernay (@ava) January 14, 2020
As a fan, this is painful to read from you. It implies that diversity and quality cannot be synonymous. They are not separate things. Quality is everywhere but most industries only believe in quality from one demographic. And now, here you are. — roxane gay (@rgay) January 14, 2020
Stephen King is a great writer of our time & yada yada… but if you truly believe that diversity in art shouldn’t be considered then you simply don’t understand art at it’s core. Art is expression. Expression comes from POV. The only way to have diverse POVs is to consider… https://t.co/i6WpGzARjO — RUM TUM THUGGER (@IfyNwadiwe) January 15, 2020
King was forced to backpedal later, saying that the most important thing that the creative industries could do is “make sure everyone has the same fair shot, regardless of sex, color or orientation… You can’t win awards if you’re shut out of the game.”
The most important thing we can do as artists and creative people is make sure everyone has the same fair shot, regardless of sex, color, or orientation. Right now such people are badly under-represented, and not only in the arts. — Stephen King (@StephenKing) January 14, 2020
You can't win awards if you're shut out of the game. — Stephen King (@StephenKing) January 14, 2020
This still didn’t satisfy the baying crowds however.
Wait until people begin to tweet you with the cleanup tweet he posted two hours later to justify it all. pic.twitter.com/6fcXy5h8q5 — Ava DuVernay (@ava) January 14, 2020

The only Hollywood celebrity who seemed to be defending Stephen King was none other than Superman himself, Dean Cain. Cain told Tucker Carlson that the backlash that King was receiving was “terrifying.” “If you are not woke enough, you are out. He has put some of the most woke tweets out there ever and he has said something that’s patently true, which is art should be judged on art, not diversity. It should be about the art. It’s what Martin Luther King Jr. asked for. A day when you are ‘judged by the content of your character, not by the color of your skin’,” Cain added.
Carlson asked whether the diversity mentality was a concern for those who care about art, and Cain agreed. “Denzel Washington won best actor because he was the best actor,” he said. “I wouldn’t have given it to him because he’s black. Yeah, he’s my favorite actor, but it’s not because he’s black. It’s because he’s the best actor I know. I don’t think he wants to be judged just because he’s black.”

King is Cancelled!
I almost feel sorry for King. He’s gone along with the liberal dogma for most of his life, and bashed the horrible orange President that we have now at every opportunity, like calling him a “vile, racist, and incompetent bag of guts” and a “horse’s ass,” but then says one thing that’s out of line and gets immediately #cancelled by the woke Twitterati! He really should have seen this coming though – how can you be a part of the Hollwood bubble and not realise that questioning the “diversity and inclusion” mantra would mean an online firestorm?! Maybe next time he’ll think before he says something sensible on Twitter.

Michael Moore Blasts Warren For Choosing To ‘Stick A Knife’ In Bernie’s Back – Says She’s Helping Trump Win In 2020

Democrats may be united in their quest to take down President Donald Trump , but that ’ s about the only thing they have in common with one another right now .
