DeSantis Drops Epic Burn on NYC's Potential Refugee Crisis: 'Gonna Have to Charge an Entry Tax'

Oh, the drama in the Big Apple. As New Yorkers had braced for what could be the ultimate "get me outta here" moment in the mayoral race, the chatter's a mix of eye-rolls, escape plans, and, let's be real, a whole lot of schadenfreude from the rest of us thankfully living elsewhere.

Now that comrade Zohran Mamdani pulled off the win, we're talking biblical-level exodus. A Daily Mail poll drops the bomb: 765,000 folks would bolt for the hills "definitely," with another 2 million mulling it over like finding out your Tinder date was not the gender you though they were.

"The departure of at least 765,000 citizens would be one of the biggest mass exoduses in American history, with a population equivalent in size to Washington DC, Las Vegas or Seattle leaving the Big Apple," the outlet helpfully reminds us. 

Yes, nothing says "progress" like turning the city that never sleeps into the city that never stops hemorrhaging residents. So, where do all these freedom-seekers scatter? Straight to the red-state promised lands, baby. Places with sane taxes, actual beaches, and governors who don't treat businesses like piñatas at a Castro family reunion. So Florida's at the top of the list, now that Mamdani beat the two narcissists, Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa.

Ron DeSantis, the Sunshine State's unflappable boss, has been fielding this refugee roulette like a pro for months. Back in early July, right after Mamdani snagged the Dem primary like it was free kale at a Bernie rally, DeSantis unloaded on Fox News with Sean Hannity:

"We've absorbed a lot of people over the years," DeSantis told Fox News' Sean Hannity on Tuesday evening. "I think this guy's policies, soup to nuts, are probably the most radical left that I've ever seen of a major party candidate in a big jurisdiction." 

"I'm telling you, I think I'm going to have to charge an entry tax or something because of this guy, because I don't know if we're going to be able to absorb everyone that's going to flee his poor rule if he gets in." 

Classic DeSantis: part policy wonk, part stand-up comic. He doubled down on Election Day because why not troll the coastal elites when they're handing you the mic? He even joked (perhaps only half jokingly?) with one X user that he'd consider sending the NYC refugees to southern Connecticut if necessary. 

Now, let's get real for a second, because this isn't just DeSantis' problem, it's the eternal gripe of every red-state conservative who's watched their quiet slice of paradise get "Californicated."

You know the drill: Blue-city refugees flood south, wallets fat from remote work, griping about the old regime... only to start voting for rent control, bike lanes that go nowhere, and school boards that prioritize pronouns over phonics. Suddenly, your affordable suburb's got avocado toast prices and drag queen story hours on speed dial.

Don't get me wrong, Florida has the room, and DeSantis is the guy you'd want manning the border (irony noted). But here's my hot take, unfiltered: If you're ditching a blue hellhole because it's too pricey, too regulated, too everything, do us all a solid and leave the socialism at the Holland Tunnel. Don't waltz into Raleigh, Austin, or Miami preaching the gospel of "tax the rich" that turned your old zip code into a ghost town.

Call it gatekeeping if you want, or call it tough love. But in a world where the left's "compassion" means funding open borders and defunding cops, red states are the last bulwark against the madness.  Vote wisely. And maybe leave the DSA membership card behind.

Let's wait and watch what happens next in the newly elected blue cities.

Biden’s White House Clusterfrack: Secret Service Whistleblower Spills the Tea

A Secret Service whistleblower just dropped a bombshell about Joe Biden’s time in the White House, and it’s going to blow the cover of the Democratic Party.

 The Delaware Democrat’s health cover-up saga just got juicier, with whispers of a prostate cancer diagnosis swept under the rug. Biden recently admitted he’s battling stage four metastatic prostate cancer. But newsflash, that type of cancer doesn’t just sneak up on you in a few months. Chances are, he was dealing with it from day one of his so called presidency. 

But the real kicker? The whistleblower’s dish isn’t just about his physical health, it’s about Joe’s mental meltdown, which was apparently so bad he’d get lost in his own closet. Yes, according to the New York Post, Old Joe would get lost in his own closet.

A Secret Service whistleblower claims that former President Joe Biden was so out of it at the White House that he would “get lost in his closet,” Sen. Josh Hawley revealed Friday.

This isn’t merely a senior moment; it’s a full-blown scandal. Hawley is calling it one of the biggest cover-ups in presidential history, and he’s not wrong. The Democrats played hide-the-truth while Biden wandered around like a patient on the Alzheimer ward.

“This Secret Service whistleblower actually was assigned to Biden,” the Missouri Republican told Fox News host Sean Hannity.

“He told me that Biden used to get lost in his closet in the mornings at the White House,” Hawley claimed, noting that he spoke to numerous Secret Service agents while investigating the assassination attempts against President Trump.

“I mean, the guy literally stumbling around in the White House residence couldn’t find his way out of his own closet,” Hawley continued. “The president of the United States. This is outrageous. We were lied to.”

 
Lost in his closet? Come on, man! This isn’t a sitcom; it’s the White House. And it really isn't funny, or maybe it's both funny and sad.

And yet, the media clowns who propped up this circus are now peddling books with “shocking” tales of Biden’s decline—like they weren’t in on the scam from the start. They gaslit us, swore up and down Joe was sharp as a tack, while the guy was probably asking his socks for foreign policy advice.

We called it. They lied. Game over. 

So, when will Congress fire up the hearings to get to the bottom of this mess? The American people deserve answers, not more smoke and mirrors.

NY Times bans reporters from far-Left TV

The New York Times has finally decided to try harder at being "journalistic" and have banned its "reporters" from several TV shows that are obviously partisan: MSNBC's Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell, and Don Lemon of CNN [aka: the Compromised News Network]. 

MSNBC, whose ratings are lower than whale poop, is upset about the new policy, according to anonymous sources at Vanity Fair. This was discovered after a Times reporter cancelled a scheduled appearance on Rachel Maddow's show. Her producer was informed that New York Times reporters are asked not to appear on partisan shows to discuss politics. The ban supposedly extends to Comrade O’Donnell and "The Lemon," as well as Fox news hosts Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity [where the chances of them appearing in the first place is as likely as spotting Bigfoot dancing with Richard Simmons.]

The Times explained to Vanity Fair of a policy in their ethics handbook that says reporters should “avoid strident, theatrical forums that emphasize punditry and reckless opinion-mongering.” New York Times reporters have appeared on Maddow’s show for years, but leadership at the former newspaper finally woke up to the fact that some of these shows have gone off the rails in recent months.

Times Executive Editor Dean Baquet and others at the canary cage liner don’t want their so-called "unbiased" reporters to be associated with the increasingly obvious bias of people like Maddow.  “Their view is that, intentionally or not, it affiliates the Times reporter with a bias,” an anonymous source said.

It’s not clear exactly where The Times is drawing the line for shows that are and are not permissible to bloviate on. Some of their reporters, including hard-left-leaning White House correspondent Maggie Haberman, are paid contributors at the networks and have the same blatant bias as the hosts of the shows they appear on. This does not bode well for The Times.

The guidelines are “inconsistent, incoherent and poorly conceived,” an unnamed source at one of the networks told Vanity Fair, which suggests the guidelines were written by the staff at the former newspaper.

MSNBC's Maddow has numbers lower than a sunken ship's head

The numbers tell the story--Rachel Maddow the MSNBC prime time anchor has viewership ratings lower than sunken ship heads. [Look up the meaning of a ship's head for more information on the analogy given.] And she is maintaining a trend in which her numbers continue to plummet every month this year.

Maddow’s show has dedicated years and viewer time to intensive coverage surrounding the Mueller investigation. She averaged 2,608,000 viewers per night with 410,000 in the key 25-54 age demographic in May, according to Nielsen Media Research. That's about the same number of New Delhi riders on the roofs of buses in their morning commute.

Maddow's show came in third for cable news behind Fox News prime time hosts Sean "Thirty Million On Food Stamps" Hannity and Tucker Carlson. 

Hannity’s average audience was 3,138,000, with Carlson’s coming in at 2,761,000. The Five and The Ingraham Angle rounded out the top five.

The supercilious silly Maddow hit her peak in January this year, averaging 3.3 million viewers. Then in February, that number dipped to 3.1 million and again to 2.9 million in March. 

Her March coverage included the beginning to the end of the Mueller probe, when his office submitted his report to Attorney General William Barr and the investigation went public. 

Maddow’s numbers continued to circle the bowl. 

In April, her show averaged an audience of 2,630,000 people when Barr released a full and mandatory redacted version of the Mueller report revealing that there was no evidence that the Trump campaign conspired with Russian officials to win the 2016 presidential election.

Now she's pushing for the Democrats to poop or get off the pot with impeachment. Why not? It doesn't affect her and could only help her anemic numbers. 

But of course, Nancy "Dancing Hands" Pelosi knows that impeaching a sitting President is political suicide and she has a lot more to lose than Maddow.

Will Hannity be blowing the lid off Mueller report

The following is satire.

Sean Hannity asks the tough questions, especially those related to the Mueller probe. On his Fox News show, where he promises never to be a Trump basher and always be kind to our president, he spoke about the Mueller report and how it's becoming increasingly clear that people "up at the top" are likely involved with going after the president.

"Here's a question I'd pose to you, James Comey, if you had the guts to come on my show: How did you know that you knew what you knew and when did you know that you knew it?" he asked of the former FBI director who was unceremoniously fired by President Trump.

Comey didn't respond to Hannity's question but merely replied to George Stephanopoulos on his show: "I knew what I knew when they said what they said when the dossier was given to me."

Hannity promises us, the American public, that there's going to be a lot more to follow and it's going to be BIG. So BIG that it's going to blow the lid off the FBI and its corrupt leadership, according to investigative reporters John Solomon and Sarah Carter.

Meanwhile, there are still 30 million people on food stamps, and women still have half the rights of men in Saudi Arabia.

More to follow . . . or not.

Dems got it backwards on democracy

The survival of our democracy depends on the adherence to the Bill of Rights. Democracy never depends on banning any right guaranteed by the finest document ever put to paper.

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) is calling for more tech companies to ban more sites that he and his party disagrees with, like Facebook, YouTube, Apple, Pinterest, and Spotify have done to Infowars. Murphy says the survival of American democracy depends on it.

Murphy has it a** backwards: the survival of our democracy depends on our ability to express ourselves and defend ourselves against the tyranny of government, just like the tyranny of censoring free speech erodes democracy.

If it's Alex Jones today, who will it be tomorrow? Ben Shapiro?Sean Hannity? Robert Spencer? Pamela Geller?

Even the speech of Milo Yiannopoulos, which is as detestable as Alex Jones', should not be banned because the more these idiots talk, the more normal people can see their lies.

But Chris Murphy and his ilk are more dangerous than both Jones and Yiannopoulos.

"Infowars is the tip of a giant iceberg of hate and lies that uses sites like Facebook and YouTube to tear our nation apart," Murphy said. "These companies must do more than take down one website. The survival of our democracy depends on it," he tweeted Monday.

Murphy never explains just who determines what are the lies. He also doesn't understand that free speech is not the speech we want to hear, but the speech we don't want to hear. It's a person's right to say whatever he wants to say and our right to not listen, to walk away, to disagree and use more speech to debate.

Speech that calls for violence or puts lives at risk is already illegal.

And no, Alex, we are not 'all Alex Jones'. Just because someone defends your First Amendment right to free speech, doesn't mean they like you or believe a word you say. You are a loathsome individual who deserves not to be taken seriously, but that's the only restriction that should be placed on your words.

Kimmel backs down on anti-gay rant but not anti-Melania attack

"Brave" Jimmy Kimmel recently attacked Melania Trump for her foreign accent. She speaks five languages but has an accent when she speaks English because she learned English after the age of twelve. 

By making fun of Melania's accent, Kimmel is, in effect, making fun of all foreign-born people who have accents--they basically cannot help but have one. 

I'd like to see Kimmel make fun of Arnold Schwarzenegger's accent--not imitate it, but actually make fun of it like he did with Melania's.

The late night host tweeted a sarcastic apology to Sean Hannity hoping to end their Twitter feud. Hannity defended Mrs. Trump and made it clear that he would not stop going after Kimmel until he apologized for Kimmel's remarks suggesting that he and President Trump have a gay relationship.

So Kimmel sort of apologized for the homophobic shots at Hannity, but was unapologetic over his "jokes" about Melania's accent.

In a Sunday note  Kimmel wrote:

"I will take Sean Hannity at his word that he was genuinely offended by what I believed and still believe to be a harmless and silly aside referencing our First Lady's accent. Mrs. Trump almost certainly has enough to worry about without being used as a prop to increase TV ratings."

Unlike Kimmel's use of his baby son as a prop to push his political view on Obamacare. He even referenced his son in the note:

While I admit I did have fun with our back and forth, after some thought, I realize that the level of vitriol from all sides (mine and me included) does nothing good for anyone and, in fact, is harmful to our country. Even in 2018, the vile attacks against my wife and wishes for death on my infant son are shocking and I encourage those who made them to give their words and actions thought. I, too, will give my words more thought and recognize my role in inciting their hatefulness. By lampooning Sean Hannity's deference to the President, I most certainly did not intend to belittle or upset members of the gay community and to those who took offense, I apologize. I will take Sean Hannity at his word that he was genuinely offended by what I believed and still believe to be a harmless and silly aside referencing the First Lady's accent. Mrs. Trump certainly has enough to worry about without being used as a prop to increase TV ratings. I am hopeful that Sean Hannity will learn from this too and continue his newly-found advocacy for women, immigrants and First Ladies and that he will triumph in his heroic battle against sexual harassment and perversion.

Jimmy Kimmel

Kimmel knows where his proverbial bread is buttered and making waves in the gay community is not to his benefit. Making waves with the President's wife, gets him laughter and cheers from his liberal audience.

His apology was as genuine as a ten dollar Rolex watch.

Kimmel's and bits

Long before talk show host Jimmy Kimmel was the late night voice of reason against President Trump, even using his young son as a prop to push his agenda, he was a crude misogynist who used women as props--the video tells it better than words.

Finally, Kimmel's true self made an appearance when he made lewd remarks [he refers to them as jokes] suggesting a homosexual relationship between President Trump and Fox News host Sean Hannity.

But most likely, nothing will happen to him because he's a flaming liberal and they protect their own, until it interferes with their ambitions.

There was quite a heated Twitter war between Kimmel and Hannity after the ABC former comedian suggested that Trump and Hannity were having a sexual relationship. 

Kimmel tweeted in response to Hannity's tweet saying Kimmel sexually harassed young women:

"When your clown makeup rubs off on Trump's ass, does it make his butt look like a Creamsicle?"

Of course, Hannity's claim is clearly true as you can see from the video, but Kimmel continued:

"Don't worry--just keep tweeting--you'll get back on top! (or does Trump prefer you on bottom?) Either way, keep your chin up big fella..XO."

Prior to Kimmel's tweet, Hannity called him a "pervert" and "Harvey Weinstein Jr."

But Kimmel got some pushback from several social media people who said he was alienating his LGBT audience and trivializing their sex style. [I will not quote some of their responses as they will get me in trouble with my blog provider.]

One guy tweeted: 

"YOU THINK YOURE JUST FEUDING HANNITY, CONGRATS PAL YOU JUST ALIENATED YOUR LGBT VIEWERS" --Scott Linnen (@ScottLinnen) April 6, 2018

Another person accused Kimmel of liberal hypocrisy, which is exactly correct.

"Haha..is this the part where liberals are OK with sexual orientation jokes as long as it's about conservatives? Funny stuff."  --Old Submariner (@BerrinAndro) April 6, 2018

The verbal brawl began on Wednesday when Hannity called Kimmel a "despicable disgrace" regarding jokes he made about Melania Trump's accent and grasp of the English language [see video below].

If a conservative dared to make a similar joke about Michelle Obama, the media would be all over them. But remember, Kimmel is a liberal and gets a free press pass.

On Thursday night's show, Kimmel made a bizarre sex rant about whether Hannity could get an "erection."

"Sean Hannity's problem is that for eight years, while Obama was President, he was unable to get an erection. For eight years, not one erection. And he tried everything. . . he tried looking at pictures of Paul Ryan with his shirt off. Didn't work."

Evidently, Kimmel is a peeping tom, looking into Hannity's window at night as he gets his own secret, dark thrills.

But seriously, he's a disgusting human being.

MSNBC host sorry for being disgustingly mean-spirited

MSNBC's nasty hateful host Kasie Hunt appeared quite happy Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) was viciously attacked earlier this month and suffered six broken ribs, causing a buildup of excess fluid in his lungs. 

The disgusting excuse for a media host quickly apologized, realizing that even a few liberals might find those on-air words offensive.

"New details today on the incident that left Senator Rand Paul with six broken ribs--this might be one of my favorite stories," the liberal scumquat said, but suddenly realized she was condoning violence of a person with a different political view.

She quickly downplayed her true feelings and appeared to lose her concentration mid-sentence, saying, "Although, of course, we don't . . . clearly Senator Paul still struggling. Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers."

The evil witch later tweeted an apology:

"There's nothing funny about 6 broken ribs--my apologies to @RandPaul for suggesting on air earlier today there was. Hope your recovery is on the right track, senator, looking forward to seeing you in the hallways soon."

Hunt is MSNBC's Capitol Hill "reporter" and is billed as a "straight news reporter" as opposed to an opinion host as Sean Hannity is billed. She is seen as a rising star across NBC--but she obviously sucks at being unbiased. 

Sen. Paul returned to work on Capitol Hill two weeks ago after the blindside attack by his neighbor, Rene Boucher, 59, while he was mowing his lawn.

Meanwhile, Hunt still works for MSNBC and has probably gotten multiple pats on the back from her coworkers.

Trump out tweets himself

MSNBC is about as far left as you can go in media and still pretend to be American. The show Morning Joe with Joe Scarborough and his new sweetheart and bride to be, Mika Brzezinski, have been using President Trump as their private piñata on an almost daily basis.

The loving couple has gone so far as to call the President of the United States "mentally ill," "crazy," "the greatest liar that's ever sat in the White House," "a schmuck," "he looked like a thug," "he looked like a goon," "an idiot," "what an embarrassment to the United States," "he's Vladimir Putin's hostage," and so on. 

To make matters worse, Scarborough referred to Republicans as "fools." Sounds like he's gotten his hands on the Hillary Clinton campaign playbook.

So Trump tweeted in response to Brzezinski's most recent attack that Trump has a fake Time magazine cover of himself displayed at several of his properties:

"I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don't watch anymore)."

Next, President Trump gave Joe and Mika new sobriquets and tossed out an insult aimed at Brzezinski's appearance:

"Then how come low I.Q. Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe, came to Mar-a-Lago 3 nights in a row around New Year's Eve, and insisted on joining me. She was bleeding badly from a face-lift. I said no!" 

So within minutes, Brzezinski tweeted back with a photo of a Cheerios cereal box with the words: "Made for Little Hands," a reference to the accusation that Trump has unusually small hands and that implies small male anatomy (aka 'junk').

On Thursday's White House press briefing, Sarah Huckabee Sanders had the unpopular task of having to defend Trump's tweeting. I didn't envy her and to be honest, as I've said before, Trump needs to stop tweeting every time he feels attacked, especially when his tweets sound like they're being sent from a schoolyard of a high school.

Yes, we like that Trump is outspoken, uncharacteristic and real. But there should be some degree of presidential decorum. Some degree.

It's so easy to bait Donald Trump--just say something outlandish and you have him responding with double the venom.  

He probably should shut off the TV and get his news from his staff.  This is not a reality TV show.

We need to be honest with how we evaluate President Trump. If he can do no wrong, then we only see him as a charismatic leader. If we see when he's wrong, then we're being realistic.

Sometimes he's really good, sometimes, not so much. 

This is one of the latter times.

Outrage over Julius Caesar assassination of Obama

In swift retribution of a play put on by the left of Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar," staged in New York's Central Park,  the William F. Buckley Theater Group put on a similar production using Scott Lawrence in the role of Barack Hussein Obama and Viola Davis as Michelle Obama.

The senators in the show were played by actual senators.

The left's play used a character who looked remarkably like President Trump and a woman who looked like Melania. In the play, Trump is brutally assassinated by senators.

In the conservative version of the same play, Lawrence gives a brilliant performance of how former President Obama ran the nation into a ditch economically, while causing enormous divisiveness among various identity groups against people on the right side of the aisle.

Sean Hannity from Fox News' "Hannity" attended the play and told his viewers "It was magnificent. If you plan to come to New York, you have to see it. 

"It was a perfect depiction of Obama's failed presidency and massive corruption. I particularly enjoyed how he whispered to Secretary of State Lurch Kerry to take any deal that Iran is willing to accept.

"But my favorite part of the entire show was when Michelle and Barack finally came out of the closet and they sing The Wind Beneath My Pants. 

"It was so hilarious it made my nose run . . . until the stabbing part when he got to the Senate. That made me feel sad, and also as if a giant weight was lifted from the country and you, the American people.

On the other hand, Fareed Zakaria of the Communist News Network (CNN) hated the play. He said, "It's an insult to the greatest president I ever had the opportunity to sit next to and share our thoughts." 

Zakarea added, "It is unpatriotic and quite vulgar to put on a production in which the president of the United States is killed. Just poor taste . . ."

He went on, but the room was beginning to emit a very horrible odor.

Black Live Matter protested vehemently outside the theater in the park. They held signs and dropped 'F-bombs' in order to appeal to the attention spans of millennials. 


Some BLM-ers threw bottles and a few threw punches, hitting one person in the face who, it was discovered, didn't come to see the play, but merely wanted to feed the pigeons. 

She is expected to make a full recovery, her grandchildren said.

Students from nearby community colleges came to protest and began punching and kicking trees and attacking a few random squirrels. Their ire was palpable. 

"Hey hey, ho ho," they shouted, but nobody had been told the rest of the words to the Hey Hey Ho Ho Chant.

Girl council launched in Saudi Arabia but no girls allowed

13 Saudi men speak about girls' issues

You really cannot make this stuff up. In a country trying to show the world it's inaugural girl's council in al-Qassim province, they forgot to include the girls.  No, this is not The Onion.

Or the women.


In a photo released to show off the first Qassim Girls Council meeting, not one female was to be seen on stage--just a bunch of bearded dudes, each with perhaps four wives each, while the women were in another room, linked via video. You see, Muslim women don't mingle with Muslim men unless they're married to them, lest uncontrollable lust and concomitant behavior ensue.

Saudi Arabia is not known for giving women equal rights--just ask Sean Hannity.

The dude photos have been going viral on social media after the Saturday event. It was compared to President Trump surrounded by men as he signed an abortion policy bill in January. But at least Trump is looking to preserve life, both male and female, which isn't the case with the Saudis. 

The Saudi event was led by Prince Faisal bin Mishal bin Saud, the province governor. He said he was proud of the conference and it was the first of its kind in over 1400 years.

"In the Qassim region, we look at women as sisters to men, and we feel a responsibility to open up more and more opportunities that will serve the work of women and girls," he said.

Yes, the work referred to is the cooking, cleaning and sex-on-demand a husband expects. The opportunities referred to is the woman's opportunity to cook, clean and provide sex-on-demand when it's her turn as one of the wives.

The girls' council is chaired by Princess Abir bint Salman, Prince Faisal bin Mishal bin Saudi's wife. She was not allowed in the photograph for obvious reasons.

The Saudis have a state policy of gender segregation between unrelated men and women that is rigorously enforced with beheadings and stonings, unless you're a man.

However, Saudi Arabia may be loosening some of its rules in the future. Its goals include increasing women's participation in the workforce from 22 percent to 30 percent--providing they cook, clean and allow their husbands sex-on-demand.

The prince said in his speech to the girl's council that women make up half of society. 

And coincidentally, women have half the rights as men.

Hannity meets with Trump: a fake take on the interview

President Trump sat down with Fox News' Sean Hannity tonight and I think I might be able to predict some of what they're going to discuss. I may be wrong, but I still think it'll be fun to try. So below is my predicted dialog between the two titans of something.

Sean Hannity (SH): Hello, Mr. President. Thank you for doing this interview with me.

Donald Trump (DT): Hello Sean. 

SH: I want to put your mind at ease, Mr. President, I will not ask you any questions that I believe may be hard for you to answer. So here's my first question: I carry a gun. I've carried a handgun for years and I have a permit and I'm a very good shot. Do people like me, a guy who spent ten years in construction, have to worry about having my gun taken from me?

DT: Absolutely not, Sean. I'm very, very big on the Second Amendment and I support the NRA and our country's history of people carrying guns, big league. With me as your president, you will never have to worry about your right to carry a gun.

SH: That's great to hear. So here's another in the short time we have: some people say that you will take away the rights of women. I say they're crazy, but seriously, do women have to worry that you'll take away their rights like they do in countries like Saudi Arabia where women can't drive or leave their home without a male escort, and it takes the testimony of four men to convict a rapist?

DT: I love women. Women are amazing and they're an important part of the country's fabric. Women have babies and add beauty to our country. In fact, more women voted for me than any other Republican in the history of the world. I'm very, very woman oriented. Let me assure you and every American woman out there, Sean, that I will never, never stop women from driving or leaving their homes alone. And as far a s rape is concerned, I hate rape. I hate it and I don't want men raping women here. Women will never need the testimony of four men to convict a rapist of rape. I'm exploring how many men it should take and I'll get back to you on that sometime next week at the latest.

SH: On your tax reduction . . . I like my one cent tax plan, but seriously, I forgot how it worked. Next question: global warming--thoughts.

DT: Sean, we have bigger fish to fry than worry about global warming, and the facts aren't all in on that. 

SH: Okay. Let's move on to radical Islamic terrorism. You're the first president to call it like it is. Radical Islam. How do you plan to eradicate it completely?

DT: I'm going to have our military bomb the sh** out of them. Then we kill their goats and kids.

SH: You're going to get a lot of push back on killing kids, Mr. President.

DT: I'm talking young goats, not human kids. Out military is the greatest on the face of the earth and probably on any planet in the galaxy, believe me. We can definitely decimate them and once we do that, we go after the Taliban. 

SH: Have you ever heard the way former President Obama pronounced Taliban? He calls it the 'Tahleebahn.' It's the same way he says Pakistan--he pronounces it 'Pahkeestahn.' Isn't that the way some Muslims pronounce it.

DT: Let's not go there Sean.

And for more, you'll need to tune in to Fox News tonight (Thursday) at 10:00 p.m. It should be a blast.

Mr. President, don't let the door . . .

Chicago -- He came. He spoke. He cried. He lied. 

Lame Duck President Barack Hussein Obama gave his farewell [sort of] speech tonight in his adopted hometown of Chicago. With the number of law enforcement personnel that were there to provide security, it's highly likely that the murder rate soared.

Although he admitted to some disappointments, he really didn't. Instead "No Drama Obama" gave an emotional defense of his vision as they face untold anxiety and dramatic change with Donald Trump taking over. 

He didn't mention Trump by name, but most liberals can add two and two . . . except for the climate changers. 

He spoke of this faith in America's "boundless capacity" for reinvention, and then made the racist remark: "The future should be ours." 

I know it was racist--I felt it was and that makes it true.

While he began as a powerful, eloquent speaker, but the end of the speech he was delicately wiping away tears, or perhaps he was experiencing the vapors. (Fortunately, he had a scented tissue at his disposal.)

But the best part of the speech was after it was over and Sean Hannity attacked every aspect of the lame duck president's life and lack of accomplishments and how the eight years of American misery are over.
