Enough! Close the Border – Today

Enough!

Enough of invaders from Mexico and points south crashing our borders and overburdening our immigration system.

Enough of asking Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador for help in enforcing our immigration laws and stemming the flow of illegals heading to Norteamérica.

Enough of indifferent, lackadaisical Democrats and Republicans refusing to do their jobs and protect our borders but then block the president’s efforts when he tries doing his.

Enough of presidential threats to close the border sometime in the future if the flow of illegals rushing north doesn’t stop soon.

Enough of the immigration madness mess. Here’s a simple 3-point plan to help force immediate action on our southern border.

Close the border – NOW!

Closing the border will get the immediate attention of everyone involved and stress the seriousness of the situation.

Undoubtedly it will cause short term economic pain and incessant whining from different quarters, but that temporary pain and inconvenience will be nothing compared to the long term costs and consequences of housing, supporting, educating and policing hundreds of thousands of people here illegally.

Keep the border closed until…

…Congress works out a feasible, pragmatic immigration solution. Congress grumbles about what the president is proposing and insists immigration policy is their responsibility, so let them take responsibility (for a change) and craft an immigration plan that puts America and its taxpayers first.

If Congress wants open borders, then let them craft a bill saying that and face the voters in 2020.

Petition the Supreme Court for certiorari before judgment

Certiorari before judgment permits the Supreme Court to expedite a case by accepting the case for review before an appellate court has decided it. Our immigration emergency is serious enough to qualify for immediate review by the Supreme Court rather than taking months to weave its way through the legal slalom course of lower courts.

Let federal judges in Hawaii and Washington state who have thwarted Trump’s attempts to address the border emergency issue defend their legal reasoning, and cite legal precedents justifying how un-elected judges forcibly stymied efforts by previous presidents attempting to deal with illegal immigration.

Isn’t it odd that Congress has appropriated millions of dollars in border protection over the years for countries all over the globe, but is unwilling to draft legislation now to defend a porous border in its own homeland?

It’s enough to make you wonder if the drug cartels aren’t the only ones making money off America’s lax immigration security.

Thanks for reading Dean Riffs. Welcome to all those who love American liberty, free enterprise, and who believe God has blessed our country. For those who believe free speech is hate speech, move on – there’s nothing here for you to see.

March Madness and Mueller Hysteria

deangeorge March 26, 2019 March 26, 2019 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"2 Comments

Last week millions enjoyed wall to wall basketball for four days but Sunday afternoon brought an extra bonus for political junkies.

The icing on the March Madness cake was topped Sunday afternoon with this cherry of just desserts: a stake in the heart of the Democrats’ deluded illusion of Russian collusion.

For those who follow the news, the ending of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s 675-day, $25 million-plus investigation shall forever be known as “Mueller’s March Madness.”

Mueller’s diary of supposed Trump collusion and obstruction findings was revised to an Attention Deficit Disorder-friendly four-page summary by Attorney General William Barr and emphasized what people who never watch CNN or MSNBC have known all along – there is no there there.

Shocked and stunned Democrats, the media mongrels that have fed this impeachment pablum to their duped audiences, and Hollyweird elitists who fantasized about playing a starring role in the made for TV movie about Trump’s removal from office, are suddenly left with nothing more than blubbery tears and impeachment fantasies.

Bette Midler was “sick at heart” with an “uncontrollable rage.” Cher remained in denial about Trump’s crime, corruption and ties to Russia. Actor Sean Astin mocked Mueller for his seeming inability “to indict a ham sandwich.”

How unhinged was Hollyweird’s reaction to the news? Rosie O’Donnell was reconsidering her earlier promise of getting a Mueller tattoo and Chelsea Handler confessed “my sexual attraction to him (Mueller) is in peril.”

No doubt Mueller is losing sleep at this news.

Media pundits suffered, too. Rachel Maddow interrupted her vacation to cry on air. Chris Matthews was livid. Bill Maher doubled down on Trump being a traitor and “a whiny bitch.”

CNN’s Chris Cillizza argued Mueller’s milestone “is the end of the beginning, not the beginning of the end.”

This seems appropriate since liberals are already chasing their ridiculous impeachment tale in circles – like the mongrels they are.

But guess what? Democrat dyspepsia is about to get worse and here’s why: Trump now holds all the cards.

The president can declassify the FISA documents. He can go public with all the documents the Justice Department and FBI refused to release.

He can and should ignore congressional subpoenas and requests for testimony and documents already investigated by Mueller.

In short, he can now go on offense against all the swamp creatures that have hounded and persecuted him, his staff and his family members the past two years.

The hunted is now the hunter. There is nowhere those attempting a coup of a duly elected president can hide.

Trump knows it. His supporters know it.

Soon Deep State players like John Brennan and James Comey will know it too.

The S.S. Democrat is Sinking

deangeorge March 13, 2019 March 13, 2019 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"Leave a comment

Mark the week of March 4 on your calendars as the day the Democrat party hit a political iceberg – a titanic one.

First, bartender turned socialist broken record Alexandria Or Else Communista continued her dogged opposition to cow farts and the banning of airplanes outlined in her climate change fantasy New Green Deal.

More recently “The Boss” tagged Ronald Reagan as a racist “screwing over working class Americans,” said Americans without jobs are left to die, and just today accused the CEO of Wells-Fargo of financing human rights abuses and environmental disasters.

Next, Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar, the Somali-American that moved to Minneapolis’ Little Mogadishu district as a teenager, continued to inadvertently stump for President Trump and Republicans recapturing the House with anti-Semitic slurs that would make Nazis dead and alive proud.

Her comment last week that Jews supporting Israel have dual allegiance was met with immediate expulsion from the influential House Foreign Affairs Committee and unanimous censor by her fellow Democrats.

Just kidding.

Actually San Fran Nan and the Democrat leadership folded faster than a circus tent in a F-5 tornado.

Not only was Omar not mentioned by name in the bill her hateful words forced the Dems to write, she was allowed to help write the legislation condemning hate in all its hateful forms.

In short, H. Res 183 “Encourages all public officials to confront the reality of anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, racism, and other forms of bigotry, as well as historical struggles against them.”

It’s doubtful that this scatter gun condemnation of hate will comfort nervous Jewish constituents since it was their allegiance and theirs alone she questioned.

The bill also warns the following forms of hate will not be tolerated:

“Whereas white supremacists in the United States have exploited and continue to exploit bigotry and weaponize hate for political gain, targeting traditionally persecuted peoples, including African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and other people of color, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, the LGBTQ community, immigrants, and others with verbal attacks, incitement, and violence.”

Whew – that’ll certainly come in handy when those bigoted Southern Baptists clinging to their guns and Bibles spread their intolerance and hate during an anti-Islamic jihad call to prayer in Everytown, USA.

Or when fascist Christian bakers refuse to cater a LGBTQ wedding between a visual and hearing challenged one-legged transgender ex-nun marrying zir’s German Shepherd-Shih Tzu mix.

With Democrat firebrands like Omar and Occasionally-Cognizant spewing such sophistry, #Trump 2020 is all but guaranteed.

Random Thoughts Before the Election

deangeorge November 1, 2018 November 6, 2018 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"2 Comments

Random thought #1: We need to start an annual awards show for those seeking their 15 minutes of fame by accusing political appointees of decades-old sex crimes. The best worst accuser would be awarded a Blasey.

Random thought #2: Let’s get this straight: President Trump is blamed by the mainstream media and Democrats for motivating anti-Semite Robert Bowers murdering 11 Pittsburgh Jews while they prayed in their synagogue.

The fact that the president’s son-in-law and daughter are Jewish as are three of his grandchildren seems irrelevant to the illogical.

The baseless accusation is also odd considering the president fulfilled a longstanding promise to move our American embassy in Israel to Jersusalem and enjoys widespread support there for his pro-Israel policies. Heck, the Israelis even named a high-speed train station in Old Jersusalem for him.

You see, even Jews in Israel are climbing aboard the Trump train.

Random thought #3: Democrat Florida gubernatorial nominee and former Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum has spun numerous excuses for his entanglement in a federal corruption probe, illegal acceptance of trips and taking free gifts from an undercover FBI agent.

When all else fails from those trying to hold him accountable, Gillum always falls back on the trusted Democrat anti-Trump card: “You’re a racist.”

An avowed socialist, hopefully this George Soros stooge and race card joker will be “trumped” by Floridian voters who see through his campaign nonsense.

Random thought #4: Republicans this fall have been running on the booming economy, increased consumer confidence and enforcing our immigration laws.

Democrats are running and whining on agitated resistance, in-your-face confrontations and interrupting thoughtful moments of silence with senseless harangues about American nationalism – in a house of worship.

And that’s just a preview of things to come if Democrats win Nov 6.

Naturally the media proclaims these agitators are merely exercising their free speech rights. I doubt the media would feel that way if their telecasts were interrupted by MAGA shouting conservatives with bullhorns.

Random thought #5:

Hillary Clinton recently joked that all black men look alike and the mainstream media laughed at her obvious reference to a clichéd old stereotype. Ron DeSantis makes an offhand comment that if elected Florida governor Andrew Gillum would “monkey” things up and DeSantis is labeled a racist, a white nationalist and a bigot.

Think media bias is a figment of conservatives’ imagination?

In addition to the liberals boorish refusal to accept Donald Trump as the legitimately elected President of the United States two years after the election, they apparently are blind to their own hypocrisy.

Thanks for reading Dean Riffs. Welcome to those who love American liberty, free enterprise, and who believe God has blessed our country. For those who believe in open borders, safe spaces, and who think free speech is hate speech, move on – there’s nothing here for you to see.

Buckle Up for More Liberal Angst

deangeorge October 18, 2018 October 19, 2018 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"2 Comments

Remember the hullabaloo candidate Trump caused in the final presidential debate when he said he might not accept the results of the 2016 presidential election if it was “rigged” against him?

The mainstream media and political left went full-blown Trump Derangement Syndrome, sometimes referred to in the mental health community as Bat Guano Loco.

How ironic is it that the same folks who took umbrage at Trump’s claim about accepting the election results refuse to accept him as a legitimate president two years later?

Not to mention that there really was a plot to rig the election against Trump – followed by Deep State cloak and dagger games to force him out after his inauguration.

Even when they cheated by stacking their liberal deck of lies and deceit and hid their maniacal machinations from the voting public, the left still couldn’t win.

Since that time the left has grown increasingly hostile, mean spirited and nastier than Joy Behar at a Christian prayer meeting laying hands on the president.

This begs the question: what kind of temper tantrum will liberals throw if they fail to regain the House of Representatives? (They can forget about reclaiming the Senate due to their despicable behavior during the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing.)

If Trump and the Republicans beat them again there’ll be enough liberal tears to irrigate the Sahara Desert until mid-century.

The wailing and gnashing of teeth will reach Biblical proportions not seen since Biblical times – or roughly since 2020 Democrat presidential front runners Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders were grade-schoolers.

Win or lose, Democrats have a serious problem best illustrated by the Marvel nemesis Venom. Just like Eddie Brock, the Democrat party has been taken over by a Symbiote form requiring a host body to carry out its nefarious plans.

The open borders/sanctuary cities crowd, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, #MeToo movement and Never Trumpers are the Symbiote life form and the Democrat party – well, it’s the headless host body.

All these social justice groups have annexed the Democrat Party apparatus and moved it so far left it defies electoral gravity and political commonsense.

If the Dems win the House November 6, Speaker Pelosi (*shudder*) will have to work her Botox injection appointments around corralling the violent mobs her party has encouraged the past two years.

If they lose, the Symbiote will almost certainly ravage the host body and Democrats will become the 21st century version of the Whig party.

The downside for Americans is they’ll be forced to deal with the mess either way.

Will Dr. Blasey Ford Show or Not?

deangeorge September 26, 2018 September 26, 2018 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"Leave a comment

California psychologist and Palo Alto University statistics professor Christine Blasey Ford is scheduled to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee Thursday at 10 a.m. that Judge Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her while both were in high school.

Statistics are all about probability, so here’s a probable statistic: there’s a very good probability that Dr. Ford doesn’t even show up, let alone testify, at tomorrow’s hearing.

Four reasons why:

First, since initially bringing the charges earlier this month, her story has crumbled faster than an Animal House cookie run over by the Indianapolis Colts offensive line.

Know the saying, “There’s no there, there?” With Dr. Ford’s story, there’s not only no there, there, but there’s also no where, when, or who was present. Her story has more holes than a a Special Forces gun range target.

Second, she’ll be under oath and her testimony will be subject to perjury charges. Not to mention the challenge of presenting as truth long repressed memories brought forward by hypnotherapy – 30 years after the fact.

Third, if any of this political soap opera is to be believed at all, she never wanted her allegations to go public. Desperate to slow, delay and obstruct Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation, it was only after the confirmation proceedings were concluding that California Democrat Senator Diane Feinstein went public with the allegations.

It’s one thing to subvert a judicial confirmation by delaying the proceedings with outlandish allegations from afar, but something else entirely to testify under oath before millions on national TV.

Finally, if she does testify, the Democrats risk exposing their filthy deeds in this despicable charade, including who leaked Ford’s allegations to the Washington Post, whether she was asked specifically about Brett Kavanaugh on the polygraph we’re told she passed, and what Democrats promised her to come forward and testify.

If they promised that going public with her story was no big deal, she may want to consider who the real villains are.

Take it to the bank: there’s a better chance that this whole episode blows up in Democrats’ faces than Dr. Christine Blasey Ford testifies.

And if she does testify and tells the truth, complicit Democrats may have more to fear than Judge Kavanaugh does.

Kavanaugh Confirmation Hearing: Day One

deangeorge September 18, 2018 September 20, 2018 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"One Comment

EDITOR’S NOTE: Since this article was posted, attorneys for Dr. Christine Blasey-Ford have reneged on their earlier pledge that she would be willing to testify under oath anytime, anywhere about her claims against Judge Brett Kavanaugh. Regardless, many clowns and other liberal entertainers are sure to keep this confirmation circus going until Judge Kavanaugh is confirmed.

Based on their pathetic efforts to obstruct the nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh, who knows what silly sophistry the Dems will exhibit next Monday when the esteemed judge and the “regressive hypnotherapy”-practicing California professor appear before the Senate to address 36-year-old scurrilous charges she raised anonymously two months ago.

Whatever political posturing they display, it’ll be hard for Democrats to outdo the political theatrics and somersaults of stupidity witnessed by millions when Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings began with multiple objections from “Car Mall” Harris, “I Am Spartacus” Booker and “Klondikebar” Klobuchar.

Immediately after the hearing began, senators demanded one by one the hearing be delayed because, well, climate change or something. This was just like Director of Political Circus Productions Chuck Schumer scripted it.

Senators objected to everything from the vetting process and the number of Kavanaugh papers that weren’t provided to the 42,000 that were provided and the way Kavanaugh parts his hair.

“We cannot possibly move forward, Mr. Chairman, with this hearing,” said Kamala Harris at the top of the proceedings. Sorry Car Mall, but they can and they did.

When that dog and pony show got old, enter the pink pussy hat parade and other Trump Derangement Syndrome protesters who were arrested one-by-one, but not before collecting their cash bail money from protest organizers. Over 60 protesters were hauled off and arrested in the worst mass case of needed spanking in recent memory.

Also on that first day of confirmation hearing temper tantrums, a fervent anti-Trump doctor almost blew up the Internet when tweeting a photo of Republican legal operative Zina Bash secretly flashing a “white power hand signal” to millions of viewers watching the hearings.

This brief melodrama was later quashed when Bash’s husband alerted the media that his wife was born in Mexico, her mother is Mexican, her father is Jewish, and her grandparents were Holocaust survivors.

Perhaps if the doctor had demonstrated more “patience,” she wouldn’t have committed intelligence malpractice.

Friends, never underestimate the ability of Democrats to obliterate commonsense and basic etiquette when the world is watching. Hopefully in November voters will put them in a two-year timeout without supper or safe spaces.

Protesters Perform Free Broadway Show

deangeorge August 14, 2018 August 14, 2018 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"2 Comments

The adage “The show must go on” is often associated with the theater, but it’s origins actually go back to 19th century circuses.

Knowing that, the adage is still appropriate considering the recent protest circus sponsored by Rosie O’Donnell and her Broadway show troupe of progressive malcontents.

On August 6 Rosie and a horde of Broadway stars clustered in Lafayette Park across from the White House and protested President Trump and his policies – in song.

If those witnessing the event were hoping to hear protest classics such as “We Have Overcome,” “Revolution” or “This Land is Your Land,” they left sadly disappointed. Instead the protest featured show tunes from Les Miserables and The Sound of Music.

Nothing says we hate Trump like “Climb Every Mountain” and “Do You Hear the People Sing.”

Inspired by #KremlinAnnex, an ongoing series of grassroots Trump protests in response to Trump’s meeting with Vladimir Putin last month, O’Donnell thought it would be clever to fill a bus full of Broadway performers and protest the president by serenading the White House.

All that was missing was Robert Mueller’s team sniffing around #KremlinAnnex for Russian collusion, while nonchalantly mingling with protesters wearing (I’m not kidding) T-Rex and shark costumes.

That’s not Broadway, it’s theater of the absurd.

In case those in attendance missed the gravity of the protest/musical, Rosie said this:

“Where we are as a nation, we have now till November to see whether or not democracy is going to survive.”

Note to Rosie: If America can survive pretentious protesters like you and musical company members from Hamilton and The Phantom of the Opera lecturing voters about what a liar and traitor our president is, it can survive anything.

To recap: a busload of Broadway performers, led by Queen of Never Trumpers Rosie O’Donnell, chose to protest a president who wasn’t there, charging him with crimes he never committed (treason), by singing tunes from classic Broadway shows, while accompanied by anonymous people in silly costumes.

Just another case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, but at least one you can dance to.

Straw Poll: Seattle’s Straw Ban Sucks

deangeorge August 7, 2018 August 7, 2018 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"2 Comments

Was Seattle’s goofy effort to ban plastic straws and utensils July 1 the last straw for commonsense?

Is banning the durable plastic straw the infamous straw that broke the camel’s back?

Will July 1, 2018 be forever known as Seattle Slew Plastic Straws Day?

Of all the problems America faces (illegal immigration, terrorist threats and Antifa whiners), Seattle is the first major city to go all in on combating…plastic.

With the mid-term elections less than 100 days away, the left is literally grasping at straws when it comes to addressing serious issues Americans care about.

While cities like San Francisco, Portland and Seattle adopt sanctuary city status and subsidize homelessness, all these progressive utopian cities are also confronting disgusting “byproduct” issues like public urination and disposal of #2 droppings.

Meanwhile, Seattle’s 5,000-plus restaurants are threatened with a $250 fine for providing patrons with a hygienic-friendly, plastic straw or eating utensil.

And that was after more than 200 Seattle eateries voluntarily adopted the ban last year.

Imagine dining in The Emerald City but having to sidestep syringes, urine puddles and human feces to get to a restaurant. If that doesn’t whet your appetite, after checking the bottom of your shoes and once seated, you are then denied a plastic straw because Seattle views them as what? An environmental health hazard.

Happily I don’t live in Seattle, but if I did they’d have to pry my plastic spork out of my cold, dead fingers.

I live in Indiana where plastic straws are not on the endangered products list, but where the nation’s only paper straw manufacturer is located in the state’s second largest city, Fort Wayne. And Aardvark Straws is enjoying unprecedented growth thanks to plastic-phobic cities like Seattle and Malibu, California.

So three cheers from the Heartland for progressivism! Your paper straws are what stirs our free market drink.

Dems Pin Hopes on a Latina Lodestar

deangeorge July 26, 2018 December 6, 2018 Run and Gun itemprop="discussionURL"2 Comments

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the Latina gift that keeps on giving – to Republicans.

Since upsetting 20-year-incumbent Joe Crowley in New York’s June primary, the avowed Democratic-Socialist has become the darling of progressives and in the words of DNC chair Thomas Perez, the future of the Democrat party.

Wait a sec. President Trump recently said that Maxine Waters is the face of that party, so Ms. Cortez must be the post-face lift face of the Democrat Party. Regardless, to quote yet another Democrat face: “What difference does it make?”

Since the 28-year-old Latina first came to the nation’s attention, she has demonstrated the political acumen of a 7th-grade social studies student and the oratorical skills of former Vice-President and longtime former Delaware senator “Crazy Uncle” Joe Biden.

For instance, when recently asked by a PBS host about what she meant by the occupation of Palestine, she said this:

Surely her comment about not being a geopolitical expert was self-deprecating humor since she majored in international relations and economics at Boston University.

It must have been an interesting economics class at BU what with all the talk about “no holds barred, Wild West, hyper-capitalism.”

Further demonstrating her grasp of how the economy works, she had this to say about the record low unemployment numbers under Trump.

“The unemployment rate is low because everyone has two jobs. Unemployment is low because people are working 60, 70, 80 hours a week,” Ms. Ocasio-Cortez said during her PBS interview.

Guess we need to revise the bumper sticker that says “My Labrador is Smarter Than Your Honor Roll Student” to read “My Labrador is Smarter Than Your Millennial Grad. ”

And finally there was Alexandria the Great’s recent appearance stumping with that curmudgeonly Vermont socialist Bernie Sanders in Kansas. In the clip the Democrat diva said she and Bernie were there to help flip the state red.

Apparently Boston University offers primary colors art courses in their curriculum, too.

Whatever color Ocasio-Cortez flips, Democrats should know that embracing socialist candidates like her mean the Democrat Party isn’t in Kansas anymore.
