Dead guy found in Brooklyn: socialist points at Trump

A dead dude washed up in Brooklyn's Mill Basin area at East 58th Street and Avenue U, just blocks from the King's Plaza Mall. 

Mill Basin is known for its residents with million dollar homes who work in the construction, cement and meat packing industries, and many with broken noses . . . if you know what I mean.

The body was tied by an electrical cord to a cinder block and fastened to his legs, and he was wrapped in a blue tarp.

The body was discovered on Saturday just before 11:00 a.m. police said.

Foul play cannot be ruled out but the body showed no obvious signs of trauma, so perhaps it was an unfortunate accident. The City Medical Examiner will determine the cause of death but drowning seems to be a strong possibility.

New York City Mayor, Bill de Blasio, blames President Trump for the death of the man and is looking for proof of his involvement, much like officials are doing regarding the Russian involvement in the 2016 presidential campaign.

We say to NoKo we're ready to use force, but . . .

United Nations -- The United States made it clear on Wednesday that it is ready to use shock and awe if it must, in order to put a halt to North Korea's nuclear ambitions. 

But while President Trump said that the "age of strategic patience is over," NoKo has apparently developed a hydrogen bomb that's ten times more powerful than what they've already developed. The ballistic missile that would carry such devastation has the ability to reach Alaska and Hawaii, yet we're still saying that we'd rather use diplomacy.

Diplomacy has not worked and our stark warning has also gotten nothing but contempt and further nuclear development from Kim Jong Un. Of course, it's easy to sit here and call for a military response, but what else can we do?

U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley met with U.N. Security Council and said that North Korea's actions were "quickly closing off the possibility of a diplomatic solution" and the United States is ready to defend itself and our allies.

"One of our capabilities lies with our considerable military forces. We will use them if we must, but we prefer not to have to go in that direction," Haley said. She again urged China to intervene as they are North Korea's only major ally.

U.S. Defense Secretary James Mattis spoke with his Japanese counterpart Tomomi Inada, and emphasized our "ironclad commitment" to defend Japan and provide "extended deterrence using the full range of U.S. capabilities," Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White said in a statement.

Last Tuesday's missile launch is a direct challenge to Trump and his promise to prevent North Korea from being able to reach the U.S. with a nuclear missile.

Haley said the U.S. would propose new U.N. sanctions on North Korea in the coming days and if Russia and China didn't support the sanctions, "we would go our own path."

While not going into specifics, Haley outlined possible options:

"The international community can cut off the major sources of hard currency to the North Korean regime. We can restrict the flow of oil to their military and their weapons programs. We can increase air and maritime restrictions. We can hold senior regime officials accountable."

China has not been fully enforcing the international sanctions currently in place on North Korea and they have also resisted tougher sanctions such as an oil embargo, bans of North Korean airline and guest workers, and measures against Chinese banks and other businesses being carried out with NoKo.

"Much of the burden of enforcing U.N. sanctions rests with China," Haley said. 

According to U.S. officials, we might need to take unilateral action and sanction Chinese companies that do business with North Korea, particularly the banks.

China's U.N. ambassador, Liu Jieyi, told the UN Security Council that the missile launch was a "flagrant violation" of U.N. resolutions and "unacceptable," but apparently Pyongyang doesn't care if they accept it or not--they're just words.

Technically, the U.S. is still at war with North Korea because the Korean conflict ended with a truce, not a peace treaty. For sixty years there have been periods of antagonism and harsh words, but so far they've fallen short of active combat.

NoKo dic-tator Kim Jong Un said the ICBM test completes their strategic weapons capability, including atomic and hydrogen bombs, the KCNA state news agency said.

Kim has vowed that they will not negotiate with the United States to give up their weapons until we abandon our hostile policy against them, KCNA quoted Kim as saying.

Kim's real fear is that he will be overthrown and either be killed or end up having to eat grass and family pets in order to survive, much like the people he rules with a fat iron fist.


Trump will be discussing strategies to rein in NoKo's weapons program with other leaders from the G-20 nations meeting in Germany this week.

Russia's deputy U.N. envoy said that the U.S. should not consider military force against Pyongyang and called for a halt to the deployment of a U.S. missile defense system in South Korea. 

They would also like us to dispose of our nuclear arsenal, disarm our military, impeach Trump, make Hillary Clinton president, and learn to speak Russian, 

Screw Russia--we can't leave South Korea defenseless against a lunatic like Kim.

The Russian envoy also said that attempts to strangle North Korea economically were "unacceptable" and that sanctions would not resolve the issue.

Unacceptable?

So Russia's alternative for us is to simply allow North Korea to expand their ballistic missile and nuclear program and mind our own business. Gee, that sounds like a good plan . . . if you're Russian.

Sure, we can defend ourselves against a NoKo ballistic missile, but allowing them to get to the point of firing one at us is unacceptable, to use Russia's word.

Pentagon spokesman Navy Capt. Jeff Davis discussed a successful test last month where a U.S.-based anti-missile missile knocked down a simulated incoming ICBM. 

However, we have not tested our ability to knock down 50 simultaneous incoming ICBMs.

"So we do have confidence in our ability to defend against the limited threat, the nascent threat that is there," Davis told the media, and acknowledged the "mixed results" of the past tests.

The North Korean launch this week was both earlier and "far more successful than expected," said John Schilling, a U.S.-based missile expert. 

It would now probably be merely a year or two before a North Korean ICBM achieved "minimal operational capability," he added.

Schilling admitted the U.S.'s missile defense system was "only minimally operational" and would take over two years to upgrade to give us a more reliable defense against incoming missiles.

Let's hope it won't be needed before then.

An analysis of Trump's galavanting to Texas and Louisiana

President Trump returned to Texas for a second time since Hurricane Harvey struck. 

The first time he flew there in Air Force One, burning all that fuel on the taxpayer's dime, his wife, Melania, went along for the ride and had the audacity of hope to wear stiletto heels when boarding the plane. This time she symbolically flipped off the media and PETA by wearing alligator stiletto heels. 

How dare she? Who does she think she is?

It's horrifying to think that on the first trip to the flood ravaged state, President Trump refused to take time for photo ops with regular people. Instead, he wasted precious time discussing strategies with officials from the Army Corp of Engineers and such, when he could have been spending quality time with frightened children, especially undocumented immigrants who are fearful they will be refused services unless they present the proper paperwork.

How dare Trump refuse to help undocumented immigrants. How dare him.

Now Louisiana has been hit by Harvey so Trump will be galavanting to that neck of the woods to show his face and Melania's stilettos, that is, unless she does what she did the first visit and change into sneakers.

It's been said that Trump is going to request $14.5 billion in immediate Harvey aid. That's a lot of money to request just for a bunch of alt-right rednecks who voted for him. 

Trump being inappropriate
with a child

He urged Congress for about $7.9 billion in the immediate aftermath of the storm on August 25th as a Category 4 hurricane. Now he wants to show off to all his cronies by asking for as much as $14.5 billion--so says The New York Times, a newspaper that never misses the mark. 

Congress returns Tuesday, after the Labor Day holiday and assures Republican leaders of the GOP-controlled House and Senate that they'll get right to work on Trump's request.

Of course they would--if the House and Senate were controlled by the Democrats, they wouldn't give in to his demands.

House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) tweeted Friday evening:

"As families & communities begin long recovery from Hurrican Harvey, House will act quickly on @POTUS request for emergency relief funding."

It's obvious to those on the left that the only reason Ryan is going along with [impeach] Trump is to get himself reelected.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) also promised to move fast on the president's request for federal assistance. There goes another old white man spending the people's money just to look good.

So far at least 47 people have died from Trump's storm and about 72,000 have been rescued.

If it wasn't for Donald J. Trump recklessly trying to set records, this hurricane probably wouldn't have happened.

Because everything bad is Trump's fault--if you don't believe me, check out CNN.

Aunty Maxine refuses to blame Trump for surging economy

Rep. Maxine Waters (Dummy--Calif.) claims that President Trump deserves no credit for the surging economy. 

This statement is coming from the free-range dementia patient who, in 2011, said on Meet the Press that the United States needed to spend a trillion dollars more on a jobs program.

"The president must be bold," she told David Gregory. "I agree that he [Obama] must have a jobs program, he must create jobs. I'm talking about a jobs program of a trillion dollars or more. We've got to put Americans to work. That's the only way to revitalize this economy. When people work, they earn money [she's just so profound], they spend that money, and that's what gets the economy up and going."

Waters. who gave former President Obama an "A" grade for his first 100 days in office,  but on The View, despite a record-high stock market, low levels of unemployment and fantastic economic reports, had nothing good to say about Trump's performance.

The host Jedediah Bila asked Waters the question: "Are you willing to give him [Trump] some credit in that arena, on the economy, that he's making some progress?"

The senile dementia sufferer responded, "Absolutely not." She added, "I think," she lied, "too much credit is given to presidents about how the markets are working, and I really don't think," (which is true) "that he's done anything that he can take credit for."

The truth is, there is nothing President Trump can do, nothing, that the left will give him credit for, and the media and Maxine Waters with her one working brain cell, show that every day.

Waters is possibly suffering from senile dementia, as I implied above. She has made gaffes that make Joe Biden sound like Winston Churchill. "I was a millennial once," she said in a speech.

The congresswoman advised young leftists to "stay woke," using a political phrase made popular by neo-Marxist racial agitators to convey awareness of invisible forces such as "systemic [and] institutionalized racism."

When the health care bill was signed in April 2010, she denounced flag-waving at a Tea Party rally. "I was amazed; I really was. I didn't say anything to anybody. I just watched--the Republicans were out there--they were having a great time. They were laughing, they were waving the American flag, they were egging them on, and I thought that was outrageous behavior; I really did."

And before the health care bill episode where she showed her true patriotic colors, she was lecturing oil company executives in 2008. It seems that Aunty Maxine can't hide her socialist ideology: "Guess what this liberal would be all about. This liberal would be about socializing . . . ummm . . . would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies."

Now let's take a ride in the "Way-back Machine" to 1993. In an interview with the Los Angeles Times Waters said:

"Policy, for the most part, has been made by white people in America, not by people of color. And they have tended to take care of those things that they think are important. Whether it's their agricultural subsidies, or other kinds of expenditures that are certainly not expenditures for poor people or for people of color. And so we have to band together and keep fighting back."

During the Rodney King riots in her own congressional district, Waters excused the violence, while her constituents burned building after building. The Los Angeles Times quoted her saying: "If you call it a riot, it sounds like it was just a bunch of crazy people who went out and did bad things for no reason. I maintain it was somewhat understandable, if not acceptable. So I call it a rebellion."

By now it should be apparent that Maxine Waters is a socialist who sees conservatives as white people of privilege or worse. There is nothing a Republican can do that will ever sit well with her. 

Liberals who decried harsh conservative attacks on then-President Obama, need to remember how in 2005, Waters said of then-President Bush and Vice President Cheney: "The President is a liar. Dick Cheney, the chief architect of the Big Lie, is not only a liar; he is a thief."

If Waters was not so toxic, she'd be comical.

Clueless Antifa violence confuses the left

Photo: AP

A man named Ken Farr provided me with an interesting analogy regarding what appears to be taking place in the U.S.A. 

He compared the nation's hatred of President Trump, the rioting that we see with the ideology-less Antifa and other intolerant leftist mobs, and the general malaise of our country, to a forest fire.

In order to have growth in the forest, fire must destroy the trees, which, in Farr's analogy, are symbols of the past. Once the trees are destroyed, they are eventually replaced with seedlings that slowly sprout and grow stronger trees and a more verdant forest.

Therefore, using this line of thinking, our country will grow stronger and freer  only after we suffer the 'slings and arrows' imposed upon us by the hatred we witness today, to wit, Antifa violence.

An example of Antifa's mindless violence happened in Berkeley, Calif. Approximately 100 black-clad terrorists (called 'activists' by the leftist media) carrying homemade shields and clubs descended on the town over the weekend and attacked a small group of protesters. 

Antifa often attacks smaller groups or women because they fight like baby kangaroos.

The left-wing terrorists kicked and punched demonstrators who had fallen in the street. They swung batons at others still standing and threatened to destroy cameras of anyone documenting their violence.

Antifa, short for Anti-fascist, have increasingly made their violent presence known at counter-protests and progressive demonstrations. They have attacked alt-right groups and violated the First Amendment of other speakers and appear to have no actual ideology other than the idea that if they don't approve of what you're saying, they will attack you.

Photo: AP

The irony, of course, is that such behavior is fascism. And now the left is questioning whether Antifa is causing more harm than good, which begs the question: name one good thing Antifa has done.

The violence of Antifa plays into the hands of white supremacist groups such as the neo-Nazis and the KKK.

In spite of Antifa tracing its roots back to militant anti-fascists in Nazi Germany in the 1930s, the current members are mostly comprised of radical anarchists who focus more on physically fighting far-right ideology than pushing forth pro-left policies. 

Again, the ideology of Antifa is non-existent other than to fight anyone whose ideas they don't approve of. 

The left was generally mute over Antifa violence, as witnessed in Charlottesville, Virginia, in which they only criticized the alt-right white nationalists, neo-Nazis and KKK, then went after Trump for being too slow to criticize the alt-right. 

Instead, President Trump rightly criticized both sides, although he should have immediately gone after the white supremacists and singled them out along with Antifa.

Since Trump's election, Antifa has become more active. They were quite possibly to blame for most of the destruction in Washington D.C. on Inauguration Day.

The anarchist group also clashed with police and right-wing activists in cities across the country, and even went to the G-20 summit site in Hamburg this year. 

In February this year, about 150 masked and black-clad Antifa anarchists rampaged through Berkeley and caused $100,000 worth of damage and forced the University of California to cancel a speech by Milo Yiannopoulos, a far-right scumcrumpet.

The forest is burning and the seedlings have appeared: in addition to conservative lawmakers and far-right activists, who are targeted by Antifa, some mainstream politicians and even some editorial boards of large leftist newspapers, are beginning to harshly criticize Antifa for promoting violence. Some politicians are even calling for the group to be labeled a 'terrorist organization'.

Normally a poster girl for senile dementia, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said in a statement on Tuesday that Antifa's violent attacks in Berkeley "deserve unequivocal condemnation, and the perpetrators should be arrested and prosecuted."

The Los Angeles Times editorial board called Antifa "traitors to the thousands of peaceful demonstrators who gathered in Berkeley's Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Park to counter a 'No to Marxism in America' rally" and they even called the group's actions "thuggery, not activism."

So on a bright note, Antifa is causing the left to be honest.

Regarding Pelosi's statement, Antifa posted a response saying that the congresswoman has a lower approval than Trump and added that they don't care what she thinks.

In spite of the condemnation of the movement in the wake of Sunday's violence, the anarchists still have numerous anarchist cheerleaders in academia.

Mark Bray, a visiting professor at Dartmouth University, defended Antifa's use of violence during many TV interviews. 

"I think that a lot of people recognize that, when pushed, self-defense is a legitimate response to white supremacy and neo-Nazi violence." Bray is the author of "Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook." 

He has not suffered property loss or physical assault for his ideas by anyone on the right.

Cornel West, a Communist and Harvard University professor claimed that "If it hadn't been for the antifascists protecting us from the neo-fascists, we would have been crushed like cockroaches."

But there is no evidence the neo-Nazis or KKK actually initiated the violence--there are some witnesses who say that Antifa started it. And Cornel West hates America.

Cops, EMS: not down with the Browns

Taking a knee during National Anthem

Cleveland -- While the Cleveland Browns players refuse to stand for the National Anthem, local police and EMS refuse to stand for the Cleveland Browns unpatriotic behavior.

Cleveland safety forces have backed out of an agreement to hold a large American flag on the field for the opening game. 

This comes after a recent preseason game in which the "CB Scumquats," as they are now known to American patriots, "took a knee" during the anthem, creating the largest anti-America demonstration in the NFL since San Francisco's head Scumquat Colin Kaepernick started his protest last year.

So local police and paramedics have decided to do something about it. 

The Cleveland Police Patrolmen's Association and ILA Local 1975, who represent the city's dispatchers, EMTs and paramedics, said the Browns leadership came to them several weeks ago saying they wanted city safety forces to hold the flag on the field for the opening game.

EMS union president Daniel Nemeth liked the idea until a group of CB Scumquats took a knee during the anthem.

"This hit home with me. I am a veteran, an 8-year veteran with the U.S. Marine Corps. So, to disrespect the flag by taking a knee is not something I was going to be part of," Nemeth said.

Police union president Steve Loomis also spoke about the situation. "I'm here at a national police convention, and soon as they hear that I'm from Cleveland, the first question is 'What about those stinking Browns?' So if the ownership of the Browns and the league are going to allow that type of stuff to happen, and then come to us and say, 'We want you to help us with the flag,' that's hypocritical. We're not going to participate."

A city spokesman said the police were told the Browns will replace the cops, paramedics and firefighters with members of the military. That's too bad--they should have also refused that crappy team the courtesy until the team leadership insists the players stand in respect for the country and the fans--they certainly make a ton of money from them.

The players claim that they are kneeling to pray.

But Nemeth said even if they kneel to pray during the anthem, why then? Everyone with a brain knows it's a lie.

"Never really saw it a problem to pray before the game, after the game, during halftime. You told me, and you showed me what your true feelings are," he said.

The Browns issued a statement earlier when this garbage all began: 

"As an organization, we have a profound respect for our country's National Anthem, flag and the servicemen and servicewomen in the United States and abroad. We feel it's important for our team to join in this great tradition and special moment of recognition, at the same time we also respect the great liberties afforded by our country, including the freedom of personal expression."

But what do you want to bet that if fans actually boycotted the games and advertisers they would change their tune? Right now they don't see it as a problem, but money talks and you know what walks.

If the Cleveland Browns are okay with the image of their team boycotting the National Anthem, maybe it's time to see if they're okay with their team being boycotted by patriotic Americans.

I was never a Browns fan but now I refuse to watch a game in which they play. I don't usually believe in boycotts but I will not watch those arrogant rich kids sitting on their butts while the anthem is being played. 

They disrespect the symbol of those who died that gave them the right to disrespect the symbol, but that doesn't mean we have to accept it.

Screw the Browns!

Keeping ISIS corralled with airstrikes

An Islamic State (IS) convoy coming from Syria in an area they held, was stopped in its tracks by U.S.-led airstrikes last week. 

The goal of the airstrikes was to halt the evacuation of about 300 scumquats and their families from the Lebanon-Syria border toward an IS-controlled area near Iraq.

US officials warned of a strike beforehand but they must have thought we were kidding.

Col. Ryan Dillan, a spokesman for the U.S.-led alliance against IS, said that the airstrike hit vehicles that belonged to IS and were traveling toward the convoy of jihadis and their lovely families. 

Coalition jets also bombed a small bridge and wiped out a road the convoy was to take.

A Hezbollah-negotiated deal that involved the evacuation of IS militants in exchange for the scumquats to hand over the bodies of fighters linked to Hezbollah killed in Syria was what prompted the evacuation.

But Hezbollah was widely criticized for striking such an insane deal. Their leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, defended the group's role in the exchange.

He said the deal was agreed upon by Syrian leadership, and added that the fighters were few in number and were being moved from one Hezbollah-controlled front to another.

Kind of like the devil making a deal with himself in the mirror.

The US-led coalition said it wasn't party to any deals and just might unleash shock and awe on those awful jihadis.

The Hezbollah deal got a sharp response from Iraqi Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi (aka "Haidar the Horrible"). He called the deal "unacceptable."

"We want to end terrorism, not move them from an area to another," he said.

Possible pardon of Assange worries intel community

You have to admit it--sometimes President Trump says dumb stuff. Like the time he said that he loves WikiLeaks because they revealed Hillary Clinton's emails. Now a GOP lawmakers suggested that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange could be pardoned by Trump and that isn't sitting well with the intelligence community.

The probability for a pardon of Assange appears unlikely, but the fact that not only has the president praised the website, Assange's own efforts to question the intelligence community's conclusion that Russia tried to influence the presidential election helped get Trump off the hook to some degree.

So the idea that Trump might pardon Assange is being taken seriously by intelligence organizations.

"It would send a terrible message to the intelligence community," said Robert Deitz, former senior counselor to the director of the CIA and general counsel at the NSA. 

Deitz is currently a professor at George Mason University Schar School of Policy and Government.

"What moral are people supposed to draw from that? Why on Earth would you believe Julian Assange before the intelligence community?" asked Deitz.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) is being investigated for having ties to Russia and he's behind the Assange pardon pursuit. 

The deal Rohrabacher is pushing: pardon Assange in exchange for information he claims proves Russia didn't collude with the Trump campaign in the 2016 presidential race.

He was the first lawmaker to meet with Assange at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London last month. Assange is holed up there for years in order to avoid arrest. Rohrabacher claims at that time, Assange offered him "firsthand" evidence that would prove there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Rohrabacher also claims that a meeting is in the works with himself and Trump to discuss Assange's information and a potential pardon. 

If President Trump pardons the scumquat seditionist, it would be a horrible mistake and it's possible that many people will see it as an indication of some sort of conspiracy.

But a pardon of Assange, while it would be self-serving for Trump, would also cast doubt on the CIA, NSA, FBI and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

And if you don't think that would suck, you might be reading this post from Russia.

"He'd [Trump, that is] show that he'd do anything to skate out of the not just allegation, but clear fact of Russia's involvement [in the election]. That would be appalling," said Glenn Carle, a 23-year veteran of the CIA's clandestine service and who ended his career as deputy national intelligence officer for transnational threats on the National Intelligence Council.

Remember, however, Assange hasn't been charged or convicted of any wrongdoing by the United States, so "It would be extremely unusual to pardon someone who hasn't been charged," said Margaret Love. 

Love served as Department of Justice pardon attorney between 1990 and 1997, and noted the exceptions: Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon, Carter's pardon of Vietnam draft dodgers, and Reagan's pardon of illegal immigrants. 

Michael Borohovski, a former intelligence contractor said that a pardon of Assange would reinforce the idea the it's okay to leak.

"Assange allegedly was involved with a few of the largest intelligence leaks of all time. Pardoning him would make it seem okay," he said.

No, most informed Americans don't love WikiLeaks.
