Trump insulted Native American war veterans in front of the worst possible Presidential portrait  Well, actually, he complimented them. As for Andy Jackson, it doesn’t appear that the scraelings he’s addressing seem to mind too much.

Trump’s ‘Pocahontas’ slur ‘carries as much weight as a physical assault’, says Native American activist ‘The President was quickly condemned for his comments by his critics.’ Wow, that’s a shocker. The proglodytes see slurs where no man intendeth.

Sarah Sanders Asked If Trump’s Pocahontas Comment Is Offensive. Her Response Set The Room On Fire

27th November 2017

Read it.

Warren responded to the President, saying “It is deeply unfortunate that the president of the United States cannot even make it through a ceremony honoring these heroes without having to throw out a racial slur.”

I guess, then, that referring to somebody as Martin Luther King would be regarded by Senator Fauxcahontas as a ‘racial slur’.

At Monday’s White House press briefing, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders was asked by a reporter why Trump felt the need to say something that is “offensive to many people ” at the ceremony. Sanders bluntly responded, “I think what most people find offensive is Senator Warren lying about her heritage to advance her career.”

Oh, not so much — most people expect Democrats to lie.

Pelosi Scolds Todd: Focus on Dem Sex Scandals Gives GOP ‘Cover’

27th November 2017

Read it.

Appearing on NBC’s Meet the Press on Sunday, Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi was actually grilled by moderator Chuck Todd on numerous sexual harassment allegations made against Senator Al Franken and Congressman John Conyers. She had clearly grown accustomed to the usual softball treatment she has received on the network and complained about not being given enough time to bash Republicans.

After spending the exclusive interview pressing Pelosi on the accusations against her liberal colleagues and even pointing out her past defense of Bill Clinton, Todd attempted to wrap up the segment: “Leader Pelosi, unfortunately for time, I’ve got to end it there. I appreciate you coming on.” The House Minority Leader was outraged: “You mean we’re not even going to talk about taxes?”

‘MOMMEE! JOHNNY HIT ME BACK!’

Alt-Left Insanity: We Should Have Let Pilgrims ‘Freeze to Death’

23rd November 2017

Welcome to one of the holidays liberals hate the most — Thanksgiving. When the alt-left isn’t hating on Christopher Columbus, bashing Christmas, disrespecting veterans or undermining the national anthem, they find time to target a national day when we give thanks. And when they hate, boy do they hate. This year’s target? The Pilgrims.

When you consider that modern progressivism is just New England Puritanism expressing itself in the political realm (note the constant witch-hunt for Heretics and Sinners), this isn’t actually a bad idea.
