Director Rob Reiner Sad That MSNBC’s ‘Intelligent People’ Have to Watch ‘Racist’ ‘Liar’ Trump  But who’s going to watch the racist liar Rob Reiner?

Donald Trump booed in his first State of the Union after hitting out at ‘chain migration’  This isn’t precisely cherry-picking; perhaps ‘turd-picking’? This reminds me of the old joke about the race between a Russian and an American where the Soviet press reported that the Russian came in second and the American next to last.

Bernie Sanders: I don’t understand how the President can give a State of the Union and not mention climate change  Oh, Bernie. One could make a career out of listing the things that you don’t understand.

Chuck Todd: Trump’s Speech ‘Set Things Back,’ ‘Offended a Lot of Democrats’  By ‘set things back’ I guess he means ‘pushed Trump-haters back into denial’.

Some dreams are nicer than others.

Xinran Ji, 24, had big dreams. But demons demolished them.

The bright hopes of young Ji, a University of Southern California engineering student from Inner Mongolia, died in 2014 at the hands of a then-19-year-old “Dreamer” and his thug pals.

Mexican illegal alien Jonathan Del Carmen, who first jumped the southern border at age 12, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder last summer in the savage robbery and fatal beating of Ji—who was walking home from a study group after midnight.

No, it wasn’t President Donald Trump, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, Republicans, or conservative talk show hosts who racially profiled Ji. It was “Dreamer” Del Carmen and his partners in crime: Alberto Ochoa, 17; Andrew Garcia, 18; and Alejandra Guerrero, 16.

The gangsters targeted Ji because he was Asian and assumed he “must have money.” Guerrero had sent Facebook messages about wanting to “flock” (rob) white and Chinese people. Off-campus neighborhoods around USC are dominated by Mexican Mafia affiliates that target foreign students and shake down local businesses owned by law-abiding immigrants.

People who break one law are often less reluctant to break others.

Though Maxine Waters — who boycotted President Trump’s State of the Union address — declined to give her empty SOTU seat to Ricky Taylor, the Army veteran still got to take attend Tuesday’s address.

The Daily Caller caught up with Taylor, who ended up attending as a guest of Congressman Sean Duffy, in Statuary Hall on the Hill Tuesday night, during which he poured a little more salt in Waters’ wound.

“It’s disrespectful honestly,” Taylor says, “That’s what I really believe. It’s very unpatriotic, regardless of if you like the President or not.”

That’s never stopped them before. The D in Democrat also stands for Disrespect.

As Scott Adams has pointed out, a rational immigration policy will necessarily have a ‘disparate impact’ because the places that have the highly intelligent and highly educated people we want tend to be full of white and yellow people, while the shitholes that have the people we don’t want tend to be full of black and brown people. That’s just a fact.

To backtrack from ‘disparate impact’ to racist (which is a matter of intent, not impact) is one of the intellectual smoke-and-mirrors jobs that the SJW Left has gotten away with for years. They need to be called on it every time it’s trotted out.

In 2012 the Chinese naval ships operating off Somalia were seen accompanied by what appeared to be a cruise ship. It was actually the first of two “barracks ships” that the Chinese Navy has built since 2011. Both are 30,000 ton ships that appear to be based on cruise ship designswith lots of topside cabins with windows and large open decks for recreation. These two ships are indeed “barracks ships” but were designed to be quite flexible.

They were first seen in operation off Somalia and described as an example the Chinese Navy learning how important morale at sea was. Until 2008 Chinese warships rarely spent more than a week away from port but since then China has been sending “Naval Escort Task Forces” to participate in the anti-piracy patrol off Somalia. There, for four months (plus a month to get to and from China) the two warships (accompanied by a supply ship) look for pirates and escort merchant ships. On those long voyages Chinese officers soon noted that many months at sea put more strain on sailors than the usual shorter training voyages.

Tech Sgt Geraldine Lovely has been “removed from her supervisory role” after the Facebook post went viral over the weekend, officials at Nellis Air Force Base near Las Vegas have said.

The Sergeant is female and apparently white or Hispanic.

“It pisses me the f*** off that they have no respect and constantly have attitude,” Ms Lovely says in the video. “What the f*** is up with that?”

That’s the way they were raised. Good manners have no value in the ‘hood.

We are already at war with North Korea, and we’re winning. Trump knows how to handle this.

The trouble with most news media coverage of Trump is that ‘journalists’ have no experience in business outside of their own narrow field and so they’re constantly coming up against things that are usual in business but totally outside of their ken. Thus the OMG! headlines about stuff that any American CEO would consider SOP.

Police in the Dutch city of Rotterdam have launched a new pilot programme which will see them confiscating expensive clothing and jewellery from young people if they look too poor to own them.

Officers say the scheme will see them target younger men in designer clothes they seem unlikely to be able to afford legally – if it is not clear how the person paid for it, it will be confiscated.

The idea is to deter criminality by sending a signal that the men will not be able to hang onto their ill-gotten gains.

From the US, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Gates Institute, the Population Reference Bureau, the Population Council and the Ford Foundation are very active. In Britain, the charity Population Matters sees checks on population as vital to Africa’s ability to combat shortages of food, while the British quality press decries what it calls ‘unsustainable’ population growth in countries such as Nigeria. More broadly and more importantly, the US State Department, USAID, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and Britain’s own Department for International Development quietly spend billions on what they delicately call ‘family-planning’ in Africa.

…

All these bodies trumpet what appear to be noble causes: a planet where every pregnancy is wanted, a woman’s right to choose, sexual and reproductive health, and women’s empowerment. Yet while people should and do fight for these goals in their millions all over the world, in Africa they are imposed from on high and from outside by moneyed, bureaucratic agencies. The sums spent, though fairly modest in the Western scheme of things, are more than a little influential in Africa; and the results are not pretty.

Even less pretty are articles such as this one. I don’t see anyone forcibly sterilizing Africans. If people are willing to take money not to reproduce, or be persuaded by money spent on propaganda, that’s not ‘imposing’ anything.

Those who characterize persuasion as force seriously need to recalibrate their brains.

Guns are how a civil war ends. Politics is how it begins.

How do civil wars happen?

Two or more sides disagree on who runs the country. And they can’t settle the question through elections because they don’t even agree that elections are how you decide who’s in charge.

That’s the basic issue here. Who decides who runs the country? When you hate each other but accept the election results, you have a country. When you stop accepting election results, you have a countdown to a civil war.

Mayor Joy Cooper of Hallandale Beach, Florida, was forced to resign by Sunshine State Governor Rick Scott on Friday after her Thursday arrest on three felony charges: campaign finance violations, official misconduct and money laundering. At least four Florida news outlets have run reports failing to tag Cooper, who is accused of accepted illegal campaign finance checks from Russians, as a Democrat

Sure, there’s a bit of double-standard here — a Republican would be so identified in the first sentence — but I don’t think that it’s a big deal. The thing is that this sort of behavior is kinda-sorta expected from Democrats; it’s not news. For Republicans, on the other hand, which it’s not unknown, it is rather less common; that’s news.
