Good news, if true…

“WASHINGTON (AP) — Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed special counsel Robert Mueller and remains his most visible Justice Department protector, is expected to leave his position soon after William Barr is confirmed as attorney general, a person familiar with the plans said Wednesday…”

WATCH: Brian Williams, James Carville Rip The Pelosi & Schumer Response Video

"I've been more excited about colonoscopies than he was giving the speech tonight."




"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."

What was Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doing, making a third Democratic response to Trump's wall speech?
By Monica Showalter

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is making herself an even bigger headache to her fellow Democrats, giving a wild third response to President Trump's speech, which pretty well eclipses the Democrats' carefully crafted messaging.

This shows just what a mess the Democrats are these days, and how she's happy to be their problem.

The Trump speech started as a duel between Trump, who spoke out about a border wall last night, and not one, but two Democratic responders. That had a precedent in how a State of the Union address response goes to the other party, but the Democrats couldn't even agree on a single responder. They had a pair of them, hoping to hog more camera time, perhaps, but it came at a cost of a unified message. Nancy Pelosi, who leads the House, was a logical response agent, but Democrats went and put New York Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer up there as well. The result, as they stared out at the TV cameras together, all botoxed and heavily made up, was "American Gothic," except maybe with oily game show hosts instead of farmers. The image was so strong (and not in a good way) that it was hard to pay attention to whatever their words were.

Trump spoke of national security and crimes against Americans as the result of an open border. Pelosi and Schumer responded with a twofold split defense of government worker paychecks, which is not a great topic of sympathy for U.S. workers, given the former's bloatedness, along with a "trust us: we'll discuss border security after the shutdown is over; just open the government," which, coming from Schumer, came off as credibility-challenged. (Where was he in the discussion of this in the first two years of the Trump administration?) It was odd stuff, seeing him up there. He's the Senate minority leader, not the power guy, so just his being there making forked-tongue promises looked like an ego trip.

But that was the least of it. Now we have incoming, buck private-ranked Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez weighing in for a third Democratic response, the voice of the radical left, and her messaging was way out in left field compared to the other two. Pelosi and Schumer, whatever the weakness of their message, did try to come off as mainstream and compassionate so as to win voters over. They didn't call Americans rats for not liking illegal alien crime; they didn't promise illegals more goodies or argue much for the lawbreakers' interests over those of American citizens. They were actually trying to persuade by making Trump look like the unreasonable one. And don't think their bid to seize the "narrative" wasn't carefully and painstakingly crafted.

Yep.

I didn't watch the address last night (since the wife and I cut the cord), but when I walked past a TV elsewhere this morning the "news" anchor was just starting their story on the address with the following sentence (paraphrased): "President Donald Trump took to the airwaves last night for a 14 minute national address riddled with factual innacuracies..." and then proceeded to launch into how/why he was wrong as I walked away.

Not "here's a report on what the President said last night, in case you missed it". That would actually be reporting the news. Just "the President said some stuff last night and IT WAS WRONG AND HERE'S WHY!!!!1".

I don't recall the channel, but it was one of the major basic networks.

Reason #473 why I don't watch TV.

That's not journalism they practice, it's all opinion.

They are TERRIFIED that Trump will get through to average Americans with his message and the people will start pressuring their Congresspeople to give him the money he needs.

In the long run, that's more important than looks.

Yep, Democrats are frustrated because they can't manipulate him according to his supposed creed.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
