CNN. We Do Not Want To know Your Opinions

I like this: "after Avenatti rose to CNN stardom", in an article. Wow. Talk about shaky ground. The once mighty news agency that has turned itself into a bastion of wannabe rich pundits willing to sacrifice their futures and the integrity of everyone in the world with any sense... for what? For money. Just my opinion.
My tweet to Mary Clare Jalonick and Eric Tucker...of the mighty, omnipotent and all knowing Associated Press...regarding what was presented as a news piece but turned out to be an anti-Trump editorial in our Post and Courier this morning,
"This is an editorial disguised as news. We do not want to know your opinion. We don't know who you are or what your background is. You are assuming bona fides to which you have no license."

Reading Sean Davis at TheFederalist.com

NBC News’ Dilanian — known as Fusion Ken for his close ties to Democratic firm Fusion GPS, which was hired to create the Steele dossier — reports this reception for diplomats and other important figures in the manner to which we’ve been accustomed:

Five current and former U.S. officials said they are aware of classified intelligence suggesting there was some sort of private encounter between Trump and his aides and the Russian envoy.
That would be a huge problem for Sessions, who has already come under fire for failing to disclose two separate contacts with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
This from Sean Davis at  TheFederalist.com.  Where's our Attorney General? Firing McCabe looks like a damn smart thing to do. Comey, Yates. Franken and Leahy, too. This story is coming together nicely...easy to understand...even for a Republican. Someone needs to go through from the middle of it and go right through to Hillary's Pay for Play treason. Mueller? POTUS should not talk to Mueller. He obviously believes a narrative that is clearly proven to be a Democrat produced epic fiction. Please do not expose yourself to his corrosives. He doesn't have  a leg to stand on. Don't give him one. You know he has witnesses lying and you know he will try to prove you are lying with their lies. There is no good ending by interviewing with his people.
Just my opinion.

MSM and Snowflakes

   From our time share in Orlando, Florida! When I was young, the paper and the evening news  were our primary sources of news. I remember my parents sitting at the breakfast table reading the paper everyday. If we had a comment on an issue and we wanted to share it we had to write a letter to the editor and mail it.  I read the paper even as a child.
   Now the internet plays that roll. And it's two way! Comment here, comment there. Don't think about it. Just do it. You don't even have to have a real name to leave "News" and comments on many sites.
   Now we have taken it a turn further. Big Media News has begun using data from the internet as sources. It doesn't have to be true. I could produce the results of a non-existent poll from my chair right now. It would only take a few minutes. That's sort of scary. I might actually make something happen... based on fake news.
    We talk about snowflakes and I wonder how many of them are just misled, "not quite completely brain developed", for one reason or another, people who have found others like themselves. Remember, years ago, without the internet, it was almost impossible to form a nationwide protest about anything. Now they find MoveOn.com or Acorn or some liberal garbage dump, with money to pay them, and transportation and they have themselves  a "By God" protest movement all atb the touch of a keyboard.  They talk gibberish that people can't help but fret over, like impeaching the President...like Tom Steyer...and we worry. But we shouldn't. These people have historically been hidden by their parents as they tried to help them to see the importance of building skill sets and behavioral characteristics that would make employers want to hire them. Now they have found friends, and support from outside the family...like a gang. The snowflakes have less pressure on them to conform so they will last longer, and they will leave a larger, nastier class of miserable, non-self-supporting welfare dependents (many of them with serious police records and multiple fatherless children) for us to deal with, but that's really about all they will leave.
   So, what has this got to do with the Media? These people are their new audience. Not only do these snowflakes read and believe whatever they read that they WANT to believe, they create a lot of the news. Our new newsmakers...snowflakes...children who fail to launch. Welcome to the new world, but don't get too upset. Sooner or later most of them will conform. The MSM makes the bunch look like it's huge...but there really isn't enough of them to bother with.So, have another cup of coffee and read the paper. It's going to be a great day!

Democrat Platform is Emblematic of Systemic Failure

The DNC is something like 6 million dollars in the red. Midterm elections are coming soon. Their financial support has failed. With open borders, income equality (which means government checks for doing nothing), taxpayer funded abortion on demand, and what else for their platform? These are items from wish lists from single issue, special interests. Much of it was funded by Obama's 6 billion dollar slush fund paid for with money from fines on banks.
Sane people won't ever buy into that platform. Sessions eliminated the liberal cause slysh fund. So far, so good. Watching the pendulum swing back toward sanity.

Finland Is Done With Equality Handouts

Finland:  You get more of what you pay for. If you pay people for nothing then that is what you will get more of. Nothing. Good people will remain good. A very small number will better their circumstances with lasting improvement. Most  people who make bad decisions will make more bad decisions. Do we have to be so stupid about these things? If we want to give people a lift, give them something to do. An opportunity to work for a living. When they get hungry, they will go to work. THEN they will realize that working for a living presents wonderful challenges and opportunities to grow.
