Obamas Are Big Fans
Michelle and Barack Obama are big fans of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, frequently filmed at concerts dancing to their performances.
In July of 2018, Rolling Stone magazine reported that the former First Lady had been spotted dancing “joyously to Jay-Z‘s ‘On to the Next One,'” which contains questionable lyrics interspersed with generous use of racial slurs.
Barack has also been seen getting down at the music duo’s concerts.

Former NFL player Colin Kaepernick caused controversy when he began kneeling for the national anthem before football games, claiming that it was a protest against police brutality and not a statement of disrespect toward the military.
This year’s game saw four centenarian World War II veterans honored by participating in the opening coin toss.

The president also recently reminded Sanders and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nomination was stolen from them by Hillary Clinton and the Democratic establishment .
That old guard is currently represented by Joe Biden .

The president realizes that and also kens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an intramural leftist rumble .
With the 2016 memory of the Sanders betrayal by his own party still fresh inside the Sanders campaign , and with hordes of gullible airheaded young people flocking to the socialist banner , Trump will alternately personally go soft on the Senator while hitting him on his views .
It ’ s the old and effective political strategy of holding him by the nose while kicking him in the rear .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-02-03--Democrats Redistribute Punishment From Offenders to Victims

Many Democrat politicians refuse to enforce current gun laws while simultaneously pushing for new gun laws that punish law-abiding gun owners rather than criminals .
Not surprised , but this diabolical dichotomy doesn ’ t end with gun laws .
Cities in the Northwest , including Seattle , continue to punish law-abiding crime victims rather than those committing crimes against them .
And the trend of leftist governments punishing the law-abiding over the law breaking is escalating .
For example , punishing law-abiding gun owners when some dirt bag or a mentally deranged person commits a crime with a gun @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dirt bag or a mentally deranged person commits a crime with a car .
I mean , what does my next-door neighbor , Matt , who is a safe driver and obeys traffic laws , have to do with the criminal , Fred , who lives down the street and commits vehicular homicide ?
Would you make it harder for Matt to own a car , prohibit him from owning certain kinds of cars ( like a Ford Mustang or a Dodge Viper : you know , “ assault vehicles ” ) , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Fred committed a crime with his Viper ?
Gun or car , there ’ s really no difference , is there ?
Yet , if the left were consistent , they would call for laws that would punish Matt , who is a safe driver and obeys the traffic laws , whenever Fred breaks the law with his car .
Law-abiding safe driver Matt has nothing to do with law breaking Fred who commits a crime with his car .
Still , leftists would punish Matt the gun owner because Fred committed a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sense .
But the leftist phenomenon of punishing the victim is expanding beyond guns .
In Seattle , government refuses to prosecute certain crimes such as driving with a suspended license 3rd Degree ( if you ’ re a poor minority ) , property destruction by graffiti , stealing shopping carts , etc .
For example , also in Seattle , the government imposes fines on graffiti victims who do not clean up the property damage the criminals caused .
At the same time , the city prosecutor rarely punishes graffiti vandals .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ t recall going to court even once for graffiti .
However , in 2019 , the city threatened to fine Cancer Pathways , a cancer education and support organization , $ 100 for each day they failed to remove the graffiti a vandal sprayed on their property .
The fines against the victims the city enforces ; the crimes committed by the vandals the city doesn ’ t enforce .
In Wilmington , N.C. , they ’ ve gone a step further .
The Port City Daily reported , “ The City of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ downtown – and the rest of the city – up to a certain aesthetic standard .
But that enforcement means punishing the victims of the crime of graffiti .
That ’ s the case even when the victims have paid an additional tax to protect them from such vandalism.
” [ emphasis mine ] Now , these same city officials who punish victims , such as in Lakewood , WA.
, are moving on toward their illogical , but for them inevitable , handling of other crimes .
They ’ ve decided how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ carts from grocery stores .
Arrest the thieves and prosecute them , right ?
Nope .
That would make too much sense .
No , instead , they plan on fining grocery stores that fail to collect their stolen shopping carts from wherever the thief has abandoned it .
How perverted is that ?
Now , grocery stores who pay taxes for government services , can be fined if someone damages or steals their property .
Boggles the mind of clear thinking people .
Oh , if you ’ re wondering , stealing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a crime : RCW 9A.56.270 .
But we have to consider the leftist ’ s focus .
Most of these grocery stores belong to “ rich ” corporations : Safeway , Albertsons , QFC , etc .
Leftists seem to believe these corporations have repositories of cash just waiting for someone to shovel money into wheelbarrows to pay the fines associated with being a crime victim .
The thieves , on the other hand , are just the poor victims of society .
They ’ re not responsible for their bad behavior—you are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Again As She Attacks Republican Senator It seems the social justices ’ idea is to punish not those who commit crimes but those who can afford to pay the fines .
Punishment Redistribution : remember , you heard it here , first .
This policy is unscrupulous on steroids .
There ’ s no way someone who supports this strategy doesn ’ t understand what they are doing is unethical .
It ’ s bad enough the left has an affinity for protecting criminals , but now they ’ re going even further @ @ @ @ @ @ @ policy of punishing crime victims .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-02-03--Let’s Make the Twenties Roaring Again

Let’s Make the Twenties Roaring Again

A hundred years ago the nation was just finishing the term of the worst president in American history , Woodrow Wilson .
His sins are numerous .
Prohibition ( dumbest idea in American history ) , direct election of senators ( turning a legit upper house into only a supercharged lower house ) , and the income tax ( supposedly a temporary war measure ) , are only several of his idiocies .
Thankfully , most of the rest of the 20s were filled with sound GOP government , albeit with some minor hiccups .
Kind of like the Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ winning ” , let ’ s turn the the old Roaring Twenties the new Roaring Twenties .
We can begin an era that takes Trumpism and doubles down on the whole shebang .
First , we ’ ll make all fun and most lascivious things illegal .
Thus like alcohol Prohibition in the 1920s , we can get more of them and increase the variety .
There may be some accompanying political corruption and organized crime .
But hey , the Democrats can cover that easy peasy .
As an added bonus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the running boards of cars again .
We keep President Trump until 2025 .
Then the next chief executive is a clone , political or otherwise , of Silent Calvin Coolidge .
Cal shut up when there was no need for babble and liked to trick his staff by summoning them into the Oval Office then hiding under his desk .
We can trade Ariana Grande ( ask your kids ) for George Gershwin ( ask your great grandparents ) and everybody is better dressed .
Which means men are dressed like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like prostitutes .
Unless , well , they ’ re prostitutes .
We de facto legalized the practice earlier in this piece .
Popular literature goes from Stephen King and J.K. Rowling to F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway .
Okay , we take a hit on high tech , communications , and transportation .
But getting rid of the current Oscars in house audience and replacing them with people like cowboy star Tom Mix and the vampy Louise Brooks more than compensates .

By David Kamioner | February 3, 2020
A hundred years ago the nation was just finishing the term of the worst president in American history, Woodrow Wilson.
His sins are numerous. Prohibition (dumbest idea in American history), direct election of senators (turning a legit upper house into only a supercharged lower house), and the income tax (supposedly a temporary war measure), are only several of his idiocies.
Thankfully, most of the rest of the 20s were filled with sound GOP government, albeit with some minor hiccups. Kind of like the Trump era today.
So to continue Trump “winning”, let’s turn the the old Roaring Twenties the new Roaring Twenties. We can begin an era that takes Trumpism and doubles down on the whole shebang.
First, we’ll make all fun and most lascivious things illegal. Thus like alcohol Prohibition in the 1920s, we can get more of them and increase the variety. There may be some accompanying political corruption and organized crime. But hey, the Democrats can cover that easy peasy. As an added bonus, we get to shoot Tommy guns from the running boards of cars again.
Cool.
We keep President Trump until 2025. Then the next chief executive is a clone, political or otherwise, of Silent Calvin Coolidge. Cal shut up when there was no need for babble and liked to trick his staff by summoning them into the Oval Office then hiding under his desk.
Totally.
We can trade Ariana Grande (ask your kids) for George Gershwin (ask your great grandparents) and everybody is better dressed. Which means men are dressed like adults and women aren’t dressed like prostitutes. Unless, well, they’re prostitutes. We de facto legalized the practice earlier in this piece.
Popular literature goes from Stephen King and J.K. Rowling to F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway. Okay, we take a hit on high tech, communications, and transportation. But getting rid of the current Oscars in house audience and replacing them with people like cowboy star Tom Mix and the vampy Louise Brooks more than compensates.
Google them.
We will make very effort to avoid the market correction that happened at the end of the last 20s. But as long as we don’t have a GOP slide rule jock in the White House followed by a Dem socialist dilettante the next decade, we should avoid the former outcome.
So let’s make the Charleston a thing and drink gin from our bathtubs. There are worse things, like having to go through 2019 again.

Not stopping there, Shaffir also posted a video of himself celebrating Bryant’s death.
Shaffir was referring to the fact that Bryant was accused of rape back in 2003 by a 19 year-old hotel employee from Colorado, according to Breitbart News. The charges were later dropped against Bryant when the victim declined to testify against him.
The backlash against Shaffir was swift, as his talent agency Aqua Talent Agency dropped him days later. He also had a show at the New York Comedy Club cancelled after the venue began receiving death threats for scheduling him.

He went on to admit that the helicopter crash actually was terrible.
“Kids dying like that, it’s horrible,” he wrote. “All the other people dying, that [sic] horrible too. It’s horrible he died. Really really sad. What a terrible thing that was that happened.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-02-04--Rand Paul Says the Name of Alleged Whistleblower, Asks if Impeachment Was Rigged from Beginning

On Tuesday , Sen. Rand Paul took the Senate floor , where he read the name of the alleged whistleblower at the center of the House impeachment inquiry .
His comments occurred after Paul was not allowed to read the same statement last week .
He submitted the same question last week during President Trump ‘ s impeachment trial and it included the person ’ s name .
“ I think they made a big mistake not allowing my question .
My question did not accuse anybody of being a whistleblower , ” Paul said Tuesday from the Senate floor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump Would Be ‘ Going Against The Law If He Didn ’ t Investigate The Bidens ’ The question made reference to two alleged Democratic operatives including one who has been reported to be the whistleblower who filed a complaint about Trump ’ s July 25 phone call with Ukraine ’ s President , Volodymyr Zelensky .
‘ I think they made a big mistake not allowing my question ’ “ Now during the proceedings , I asked a question that was disallowed .
And I ’ m going to ask that question @ @ @ @ @ @ @ does protect debate and does protect the asking of questions , ” Paul said .
“ I think they made a big mistake not allowing my question .
My question did not talk about anybody who is a whistleblower .
My question did not accuse anybody of being a whistleblower.
” Paul noted that he “ simply named two people ’ s names , ” then repeated his question , including saying the names .
“ And you say , well we should protect the whistleblower , and the whistleblower deserves anonymity .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” Paul said .
“ His boss is not supposed to say anything about him , he ’ s not supposed to be fired .
I ’ m for that.
” Paul said naming names was necessary to determine if there was a possible plot to take down the president .
“ My point is , is by having such protection , such overzealous protection , we don ’ t get to the root of the matter of how this started , ” the senator said .
“ ‘ Cause this could happen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Donald Trump Jr. praised Paul for asking these questions .
“ Must watch , ” Don Jr. tweeted along with a video of Paul ’ s presentation .
“ Great job Rand Paul for calling this nonsense out.
” Sen. Paul ’ s comments came as both Republican and Democratic senators spent the day making arguments for and against removing Trump from office due to his supposedly questionable dealings with Ukraine .

‘I think they made a big mistake not allowing my question’
“Now during the proceedings, I asked a question that was disallowed. And I’m going to ask that question again this morning, because the Constitution does protect debate and does protect the asking of questions,” Paul said. “I think they made a big mistake not allowing my question. My question did not talk about anybody who is a whistleblower. My question did not accuse anybody of being a whistleblower.”
Paul noted that he “simply named two people’s names,” then repeated his question, including saying the names.
“And you say, well we should protect the whistleblower, and the whistleblower deserves anonymity. The law does not preserve anonymity,” Paul said. “His boss is not supposed to say anything about him, he’s not supposed to be fired. I’m for that.”
Paul said naming names was necessary to determine if there was a possible plot to take down the president.
“My point is, is by having such protection, such overzealous protection, we don’t get to the root of the matter of how this started,” the senator said. “‘Cause this could happen again.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-02-04--Sad! CNN Complains After Trump Blocks Them From Pre-SOTU Lunch

CNN is accusing President Trump of targeting the network by not inviting any of their reporters to an annual pre-State of the Union lunch .
Commentator Brian Stelter reports that three sources have confirmed the network is being excluded from the lunch .
“ President Donald Trump ’ s targeting of CNN is moving to yet another arena : The annual presidential lunch with television network anchors , ” Stelter complained .
The lunch gathering is considered off-the-record and journalists from most major news networks are typically invited to get a glimpse of the President ’ s mindset prior to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Former CNN Host Reza Aslan Asks If The World Would Be Better Off Without Rush Limbaugh Here Come the Tears Several mainstream media figures were outraged that the White House would dare not invite CNN to the proceedings .
The off-the-record proceedings .
With reporters who are relentlessly anti-Trump .
Hard to imagine why the President wouldn ’ t want that circus surrounding him before a triumphant SOTU address as he nears acquittal in the Senate impeachment trial .
“ Every news organization should stand by its peer CNN , stand up against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the first amendment by boycotting the impeached president ’ s lunch , ” journalist Steven Beschloss demanded .
Likewise , CNN White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins asked of her peers , “ Why would any other anchor go to this ?
” Well , because they don ’ t work for a fake news outlet would be my number one guess .
Interesting that CNN would be outraged over exclusion from the State of the Union lunch .
Especially considering the network themselves boycotted the White House Christmas party in 2018 .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ who gleefully announced it on social media at the time .
“ [ White House ] is hosting a Christmas party for media , ” Stelter relayed .
“ Lots of curiosity about who will [ and ] will not attend .
CNN staffers will not.
” “ In light of the President ’ s continued attacks on freedom of the press and CNN , we do not feel it is appropriate to celebrate with him as his invited guests , ” a spokesperson for the far-left network said at the time .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and they complain when Trump boycott ’ s them .
Which is it ?
If you didn ’ t like the attacks before , what changed your mind to the point where you ’ re begging for an invite ?
Quite frankly , the President isn ’ t about to let up on his attacks against CNN any time soon .
Why ?
Because they have no intention of operating as an organization with integrity any time soon .
He ’ s not obligated to invite anybody , let alone a second-rate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outrage when Barack Obama booted reporters from conservative newspapers off of his airplane ?
Did they stand in solidarity with their colleagues then ?
Spare us the crocodile tears now .

So they complain when they boycott Trump, and they complain when Trump boycott’s them. Which is it? If you didn’t like the attacks before, what changed your mind to the point where you’re begging for an invite?
Quite frankly, the President isn’t about to let up on his attacks against CNN any time soon. Why? Because they have no intention of operating as an organization with integrity any time soon. He’s not obligated to invite anybody, let alone a second-rate outfit.
Anyone recall CNN’s outrage when Barack Obama booted reporters from conservative newspapers off of his airplane? Did they stand in solidarity with their colleagues then?

During MSNBC ’ s coverage of the Iowa caucus on Monday , former second lady Jill Biden said that President Donald Trump ’ s remarks about her stepson Hunter Biden were “ disgraceful.
