Fenris,

That "Space Force" emblem doesn't appear to be official. Smile It is the work of guy on the Deviant Art site created in 2013 here:

Note in his "sci-fi" narrative the Space Force is created in 2051. LOL Big Grin

You also need to resize it in your post as it is HUGE! Frown

Did anyone see DHS Sec Kirstjen Nielsen give that press conference about this whole "OMG EVIL TRUMP RIPPING CHILDREN AWAY FROM THEIR MOTHERS AND SENDING THEM TO CONCENTRATION CAMPS!" bullshit from the DNC/MSM Complex that all of a sudden is everywhere? I think she did amazingly great with these fucking sharks from the media waiting to pounce on her; she calmly explained that the vast majority of these kids are in fact NOT being taken from the parents and the ones that are being separated from the people they are with WERE SENT HERE UNACCOMPANIED, as in their own parents sent them alone to break into our country and that they are being given food, shelter, education and entertainment. Of course none of these sharks wanted to hear all that and kept talking about how "heartless " this was for the Trump administration to be "putting children in cages".

They are getting more frantic about these mid-terms and I think are making a HUGE mistake thinking that the average non-whacko leftist doesn't want exactly what Trump is doing here.

I watched the whole thing. She was very impressive, calm, organized, factual, responsive.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

I'm only sorry she didn't respond to that one reporter who would not shut up about "children in cages!" with something like:

"Oh, you mean those pictures of children in cages during Obama's time in office? The pictures you didn't seem too worried about when it was a Democrat in office? Those pictures of children in cages, pal?"

They think they finally have something and are going for broke. Did you hear Michael Steel? What a piece of junk he turned into.

Democrats are the problem. They don’t care about crime and want illegal immigrants, no matter how bad they may be, to pour into and infest our Country, like MS-13. They can’t win on their terrible policies, so they view them as potential voters!

GOOD!

It's just too damn bad it doesn't say "Trump to withdraw the United States completely from the UN and kick them out of NYC."

Trump To Withdraw From UN Human Rights Council Today

quote:

Two years after Russia was kicked out of the UN Human Rights Council, while that paragon of humanitarian virtue Saudi Arabia was reelected, the WaPo reports that the Trump administration is set to withdrawal from the United Nations Human Rights Council as soon as today, making good on a pledge to leave a body that Trump has repeatedly accused of hypocrisy and criticized as biased against Israel.

Per The Washington Post, the decision to leave the 47-nation body, as most observers anticipate, would be more definitive than the lesser option of staying on as a nonvoting observer.

It would represent another retreat by the Trump administration from international groups and agreements whose policies it deems out of sync with American interests on trade, defense, climate change and now, human rights.

And it would leave the council without the United States playing a key role in promoting human rights around the world. This is the first time since the Human Rights Council was formed in 2006 that a sitting member would volunteer to step aside, though Libya was suspended in 2011 after a government crackdown on unarmed protesters.

However, a U.S. departure would deprive Israel of its chief defender at a forum where Israel's human rights record comes up for discussion at every single meeting, a standing "Item 7" on the agenda.

"It's true, the Human Rights Council continues to disproportionately focus on Israel," said Peter Yeo, an official with the United Nations Foundation that connects the organization with private and nongovernmental groups and foundations.

"But with U.S. leadership, the attention Israel brought has dropped significantly. U.S. leadership matters. We're still the only ones with credibility on human rights on the world stage."

The marxists lost the narrative on MS13, North Korea, the economy, etc. Now they are hoping to win on crying kids at the border.

As Mark Steyn said last night, there’s a way to prevent this - post a sign at the border saying, “If you cross this border you are subject to being separated from your children.” I don’t even think a sign is necessary, as the word should have gotten out by now.

I watched this during my lunch...President Trump addressing the National Federation of Independent Business. Another terrific, upbeat speech.

Nothing more important than victimhood!

Have a friend that 5 years ago said that that the Dems next move would be to marginalize Americans, and elevate illegals aliens above them, seems he was right.
