Unfortunately, the ones that needed to see the childish behavior of the Dem's probably weren't watching the speech.


I really don't enjoy SOTU addresses, but last nigh the Democratic sourpusses were the highlight. One question: were Joe Manchin's sideways looks to see whether he could stand up and applaud, merely childish or purely craven?

Speaking of Manchin, how is his reelection looking? I hope that gun grabber gets defeated.

My sources confirm that they were there mainly for the post-SOTU KFC chicken tenders buffet.

It's like a time-share presentation thing.

I watched the SOTU address last night, and actually stood up and clapped at the conclusion of Pres. Trump's speech. It was powerful, heart wrenching, pointed in the correct direction, and personal to DJT, and the American people. The right speech at the right time in this Nation. The Demos looked like spoiled children.

Earlier we heard that the FBI had looked at the FISA memo and “could not point to any factual inaccuracies”

Now today the FBI has “grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy.”

We went from “no inaccuracies” to “material omissions”.

President Trump should get FBI Dir Wray, Nunes, and Gowdy in his office and hash this out.

Just let the FBI and whomever voice their concerns and President Trump is going to try to address their concerns by having the memo examined in great detail, but the end result will be the same. Think about it- what difference does it make if the memo is released today, or two weeks from now?

It's going to be released. Patience is in order right now. It's going to be great when it's finally released.

Call me crazy, but I don't expect him to throw the below-top echelon Bureau under the bus.

No need for that, it's already tainted enough. And apparently more when the memo comes out.

Guess we can call it trickle-down "corporate" politics.

Last night Hannity had Donald trump Jr. on to discuss the SOTU. He had a lot of good and insightful comments, but he did discuss specifically some interactions he had with several FBI agents while at the SHOT Show. I'm not sure of the specific time spot, but here's the whole interview.

It's disgusting that the FBI cares more about it's reputation than about the truth.

Sad part is their reputation is already shot, the memo won't change that.

I am rejoicing in this time. Despite the political elite putting a target on Trump's back, attacking all of us, and illegally obstructing and misleading the country, we are stronger now than ever. Even the liberals I deal with can't deny that things have improved drastically in one little year. Obummer has been exposed to even the most ignorant people. Trump is the leader we have wanted and needed desperately.

Let the Demoturds and FBI dick around with the memo. That is all the more opportunity for it to hit harder. Embrace all of the winning. I thank God daily for putting his hand on America and Trump.

The importance of the FISA issue is that we need to be sure that the laws and procedures are appropriate to prevent the use of the enormous power we authorize for good and proper purposes cannot be misused for improper purposes, like appropriation by one group to seize power in derogation of our democratic repiblican principles.

It appears that while we placed great comfidence in the skill, patriotism and integrity of the FBI, some found cracks in the organization, those who betrayed the trust, to subvert the safeguards and process.

We need to know and restore reliability and confidence to the process, or end it.

There’s a wide chasm between how Democrats perceive the Kennedys and the actual truth, and it’s not petty to keep pointing out that gap. There’s a stack of evidence showing that a lot of the Kennedys were horrible, selfish, abusive people who were somehow stage-managed and airbrushed into secular saints. The list of scandals runs generations, from lobotomizing Rosemary Kennedy, to JFK making Jackie get electroshock treatments, to the multiple allegations against William Kennedy Smith, to Patrick Kennedy driving under the influence. And of course, Chappaquiddick.

By Kennedy standards, Congressman Joe Kennedy III is an accomplished 37-year-old: Stanford and Harvard Law, two years in the Peace Corps, several years as an assistant district attorney. Defying his family stereotype, he doesn’t drink. But let’s not kid ourselves; if his name was Joe Smith and his family wasn’t an icon in American politics, he would have had a much tougher time winning a Democratic Congressional primary in Massachusetts at age 32.

That’s why there’s a good reason to cringe when Joe Kennedy III, grandson of Bobby Kennedy and great-nephew of John F. Kennedy and Ted Kennedy, stands before the nation giving the Democratic response to the State of the Union Address and laments “a system forcefully rigged towards those at the top.”

Last night, the congressman contended, “The [administration’s] record is a rebuke to our highest American ideal, the belief that we are all worthy, that we are all equal, that we all count, in the eyes of our law and our leaders, our God and our government.”

The Kennedy family spent the better part of two generations fighting for equality in the eyes of the law for everyone not named Kennedy. As a review of the forthcoming film Chappaquiddick declared, “The fact that the Kennedy family — the original postwar dynasty of the one percent — possessed, and exerted, the influence to squash the case is the essence of what Chappaquiddick means. The Kennedys lived outside the law.”

Let us also acknowledge that when someone from a clan that has been touted as “America’s Royal Family” since at least 1962 sings the praises for equality… it rings hollow.

Joe Kennedy III may be an absolute gentleman with women and I hope he is. But when he salutes America’s women for “bravely saying, ‘me too,’” some of us can only think of John F. Kennedy bedding 19-year-old White House interns and Ted Kennedy making a “waitress sandwich” with Chris Dodd. For a long time, the Kennedy men embodied everything that #MeToo opposes. Some people may object to this point, declaring it unfair to hold past generations’ sins against the Congressman. Of course, if his name was Smith or Jones, would he be giving the response to the State of the Union? Last night Democrats wanted to cash in on the benefits of the family legacy without acknowledging the dark side of that legacy.

Thanks for posting this. Well worth the time to watch. DT Jr. is a great spokesman for his father and might make a good successor to him in 7 yrs.

Trump praised American Exceptionalism and what's possible if we try. He then held out his hand and asked- Let's Try?

The FBI / Justice Department / Memo- The charges cut to the very heart and soul of America and the Republic doesn't exist as we know it if they tried to do what they tried to do.

This came to mind "I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic".

Why even entertain the idea of democratic royalty? Seriously, family legacies in politics is a poison that needs to end. What demonstrates elitism more than a family maintinaing such high political influence simply because of their blood?

Beyond frustrating.
