Funniest Observation of the Election Season Spotted in WaPo Comments Section

I kid you not.

A querrolous John Wagner at the Washington Post offers YARFHIL ("Yet Another Reason for Hillary's Ignoble Loss"), now that the James Comey, Russia, John Podesta, spirit cooking, Wikileaks, global warming, and redneck revolution theories have all been disproven.

No, Wagner reports that the vaunted Democrat computer analytics program was the culprit ("What Ada Got Wrong"):

TOLERANCE: Pro-Israel Artist From Soviet Union Faces 5 Years in Prison for Campus Anti-Terror Posters

By Daniel Greenfield

It's not a story out of the Soviet Union though Oleg Atbashian, an artist, activist and commentator, had gotten in trouble for defying the authorities there too.

"Back in my Soviet dissident days, when I was collecting signatures in defense of Andrei Sakharov, I was screamed at, threatened, and lectured by the KGB and Communist funcionaries. What I never imagined was that in the United States, the land of the free, I would not only be subjected to similar treatment, but go to jail," Oleg writes.

But that's exactly what happened to him.

A LEFTIST'S GUIDE TO ANTI-TRUMP PROTESTS: Chapter 12 --- How to Wear Your Protest Safety Pin

SOROS AND SORE LOSERS: Far Left Anarchists Planning Huge Protest of the Constitution on Inauguration Day

By Michael Snyder

We have seen very large protests in major cities all over America since Donald Trump won the election, but the biggest one of all is being planned for January 20th. Radical leftists are calling for thousands upon thousands of activists to descend upon Washington D.C. on Inauguration Day, and they are planning to disrupt the inauguration festivities as much as they possibly can. And if you doubt that the “Not My President” movement can pull this off, you may want to consider that 25,000 protesters showed up in New York City on Saturday on very short notice. These people are bitter, angry, frustrated and incredibly motivated. At this point they still have more than two months to organize their forces, and many are expecting that this is going to be the most chaotic Inauguration Day in American history.

YES, PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL BUILD A WALL: "I'm very good at this, it's called construction"

So relays Louis Nelson at a very butthurt Politico:

“What we are going to do is get the people that are criminal and have criminal records, gang members, drug dealers, where a lot of these people, probably 2 million, it could be even 3 million, we are getting them out of our country or we are going to incarcerate,” he said in the interview, to air on “60 Minutes ... But we're getting them out of our country; they're here illegally.”

Only then, Trump said, will he figure out a plan to deal with the “terrific people” who are in the U.S. illegally but have otherwise clean criminal histories. Securing the border, he said, is a prerequisite for any other action on immigration...

...One unchanged part of his immigration platform has been his plan for the construction of a wall along America’s southern border with Mexico, something he said he would force the Mexican government to pay for by threatening to cut off the flow of money from immigrants to their families south of the border. Trump said Sunday that while an actual wall will be necessary along some portions of the border, a mere fence will suffice in others.

“I'm very good at this; it's called construction,” he said.

If I were President-Elect Trump, I'd have added the word "dumbass" to my response, but that's -- perhaps -- the reason I'm not the President-Elect.

TRUMP AND ISRAEL: What a Difference a Day Makes

By Dan From New York

Even before he’s been inaugurated, President-Elect Trump is already showing us what it's like to have a pro-Israel Commander-In-Chief.

Feels great after eight years of a crypto-Jihadist at the helm, doesn't it? Eat your hearts out George Soros, J Street, Alan Dershowitz, Arthur ("Putz") Sulzberger, and Reform “Rabbi” Rick Jacobs. Along with the rest of the “progressive” cretins who publicly supported Crooked Hillary.

MEET THE NEW CLINTON, INC.: What Hillary's Concession Speech Really Means

By Mark St. Cyr

No matter what side of the political aisle you stand, one thing is certain: The resulting outcome; on so many levels, as well as metrics; is one for the ages. The political fallout and its ever-increasing shaking of political norms and assumptions have now been cast into the trash bins of political history and forecasting, with some of those “dumpsters” being set ablaze.

Where things go from here is anyone’s guess. All one can do is watch, anticipate, and act accordingly. That’s what being in business is all about.

So it’s through this prism (for it’s what I do) as I watched Mrs. Clinton’s concession speech I couldn’t help but marvel at what I believed to be watching. For if I’m correct, what transpired at that presser was more inline with a business turnaround, or business crisis PR announcement event (think Tylenol® or even Wells Fargo™ for base-case relevance) rather than just your typical political concession speech.

What happened? From the beginning, Obama pushed the left-most plausible agenda without regard to political consequences. His signature initiative, ObamaCare, was forced through Congress despite its manifest unpopularity and with the crucial assistance of obvious falsehoods (i.e., that it would reduce premiums and people could keep their doctors).

When Obama’s initial legislative overreach cost him his congressional majorities, he proceeded with executive overreach, especially on environmental regulation and immigration. His attitude was that everyone had to get with his program and that if they didn’t, they were either stupid or spiteful. He believed less in the usual political arts of compromise and personal relationships than in the irresistible power of his own words." --Rich Lowry

The Most Interesting Tweets in the (Political) World

Tonight's edition.


SOMEONE PINCH ME: Michael Moore Probably Summed Up the Election Best

Laughingstock media continue to market the outrageous "Trump supporters are racists" lie.

Tarring Trump supporters as racists because some obscure and tiny group of his backers are "white nationalists" is no different that Republicans claiming that Obama supporters were all Islamists.

After all, Obama and Hillary were supported by huge majorities of Muslims, significant percentages of whom sympathize with or outright support Sharia law. Sharia law, of course, brutally subjugates women and levies the death penalty on gay people and apostates.

In fact, the "Trump supporters are racists" lie was repudiated by none other than Michael Moore earlier today.

MARK LEVIN: President Trump Needs to Avoid Associating with Losers Like Bob Corker

By Chris Pandolfo

Mark Levin has a special message regarding speculation that Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn. (F, 45%) is being considered for secretary of state in the administration of President-elect Trump: Hell. No.

Sen. Corker, you will recall, single-handedly enabled the Obama administration to enact the Iran Nuclear Deal by surrendering the treaty clause of the U.S. Constitution to Obama.

President-elect Trump must not nominate Corker for secretary of state: “We will go to war over this!” Levin exclaimed.

WHEN A PICTURE IS WORTH A MILLION WORDS: Faces Of White House Staffers Priceless as President Trump Arrives

After President Trump's inauguration, I would like to ask that any former member of Valerie Jarrett's Secret Service detail (why she warranted such a force is worthy of its own investigation) contact me. I have a case of beer I would like to send each and every one of you.

A Quick, Heartfelt Thank You Note to My Democrat Colleagues

The headline at Ann Althouse's place says it all: "The Democrats will now control next to nothing above the municipal level."

She points to a a despondent Jim Newell at Slate (I read it, so you don't have to) who offers us a long overdue obituary for the mummified husk of the far left Democrat Party.

The Democratic Party Establishment Is Finished

The Democrats will now control next to nothing above the municipal level... The Democratic Party establishment has beclowned itself and is finished...

...I think of the lawmakers, the consultants, the operatives, and—yes—the center-left media, and how everything said over the past few years leading up to this night was bullsh**...

They lied and manipulated their data in a concerted effort to intentionally falsify reality. There should be no doubt, EVER, in the mind of any political observer as to what took place within the expressed and broadcasted polling which fueled over two years of broadcast news.

They knew the truth. The same tools available to us, and to those who were ridiculed for truth-telling, were available to them and many more. They did not get it wrong. They chose to lie to you the American electorate. " --Sundance

Handicapping the Trump Cabinet

There's a lot of speculation out there, but here are my guesses for President Trump's (doesn't that phrase feel good?) cabinet.

  • Attorney General Rudy Giuliani
  • Secretary of State former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich
  • DHS Secretary Gov. Chris Christie
  • Secretary of Defense Sen. Jeff Sessions
  • Department of the Interior former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin
  • Secretary of Energy Harold Hamm
  • Surgeon General Ben Carson
  • National Security Adviser Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn
  • Chief of Staff Reince Priebus
  • Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin
  • Secretary of Agriculture former Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue
  • Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross
  • Secretary of Labor Victoria Lipnic
  • Secretary of Education William Evers
  • Veterans Affairs House retiring Veterans’ Affairs Chairman Jeff Miller
  • EPA Director Myron Ebell

Alright, you geniuses: what did I get wrong?
