[An Nahar] A budding diplomatic crisis with Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... , Hurricane Michael's wreckage to clean up, stock market jitters, and... President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... 's standout act Tuesday was to brand porn star Stormy Daniels "Horseface."
That wasn't all.
The U.S. leader, who revels in making up nicknames for opponents and critics, also launched tweets about "Pocahontas" Elizabeth Fauxchahontas Warren ...Dem Senatrix from Massachussetts, who traces her noble lineage all the way back to Big Chief Spouting Bull. It has been alleged that she speaks with forked tongue but she denies that... , a liberal senator seen as a potential 2020 presidential candidate, whom Trump ridicules for trying to prove she is part Native American.
But the equine insult was the most startling moment of a day when the White House officially signaled that "THE PRESIDENT has no public events scheduled" -- apparently leaving him free to cut loose on Twitter.
Stormy Daniels, a blond 39-year-old whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, had a defamation suit against Trump thrown out by a federal judge on Monday. The judge also ruled that Daniels should pay Trump's legal fees.
Trump was gleeful.
"Great, now I can go after Horseface and her 3rd rate lawyer," he tweeted.
Daniels is one of numerous women alleging they have had affairs or have been sexually harassed by Trump, who is currently married to a Slovenian-born former model, Melania.
In a recent salacious book, "Full Disclosure," Daniels claimed to reveal the then future president's tendency toward petulance, "tantrums," and the mushroom-like shape of his penis.
But in his jubilant tweet Tuesday, Trump pronounced: "She knows nothing about me, a total con!"
Daniels, reputed to be a hard-driving businesswoman who moved from stripping to adult films to parts in mainstream movies, gave as good as she got -- by Twitter, of course.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present your president," she tweeted.
"In addition to his...umm...shortcomings, he has demonstrated his incompetence, hatred of women and lack of self control on Twitter AGAIN! And perhaps a penchant for bestiality. Game on, Tiny."
- 'POCAHONTAS' JIBES -
Before tearing into Stormy Daniels, Trump let off three mid-morning tweets devoted to Warren, a Democrat who has been one of the president's most biting critics.
Trump has long mocked her assertion to have Native American blood, latching on to a disproven theory that Warren used her tribal heritage claim to advance an academic career at Harvard University.
What was once just a bizarre political sideshow has morphed into a full-blown obsession in which Trump routinely jokes about "Pocahontas" Warren before thousands of laughing people at his rallies.

The Don as a kid was hard to tame by his family so they put him into a military school. His father was not the nicest guy in the world, was actually ruthless and he still ended up needing outside help with his son. Donald conquered the military school and became a top leader there.
Half a century later he has not softened one bit. He likes to fight. He likes to pick fights. It is his DNA.
He just happens to be a very, very rich soldier and one who knows how to win the battles. Just be glad you are on his side. As one ex-wife put it during their divorce, she was very concerned of being his adversary during that event.

While the world is still asleep at 5am, this man is already at the office working hard towards another win.

Right after having the the previous Stormy case dismissed and having Warren cap herself with the DNA thing. Why?
I think Trump does this to provoke his opponents, knowing that if they're worrying about getting even, then they're not planning carefully to win.

It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle. - Sun Tzu

"Fauxcahontas" is a better term that truly fits Elizabeth Warren's BS. She speaks with forked tongue out of both sides of her mouth. "Pocahontas" is a respectable name in English colonial and US history. The PC brouhaha about the way Trump refers to these names just makes the PC crowd look even more foolish - if that is possible.
[NBCNews] President Donald Trump recently announced another wave of judicial nominees, and among them is an openly gay conservative, Patrick Bumatay.
Trump nominated Bumatay to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, based in San Francisco, the nation’s largest federal appeals court. It hears cases from nine Western states and has 29 judges; there are currently six vacancies. Take that libtards
Bumatay is an assistant U.S. attorney in California handling various criminal issues, including opioid abuse and transnational organized crime, according to the White House. He went to Yale and Harvard Law School, and the White House said Bumatay is a member of the National Filipino American Lawyers Association, the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association and the Tom Homann LGBT Law Association.
Bumatay is the second openly gay person Trump has nominated for the federal bench, according to the Washington Blade. The first was Mary Rowland, a magistrate judge who Trump nominated to be on the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois in June; she is waiting to be confirmed by the Senate.
There is currently only one openly gay federal appeals court judge in the U.S., according to the Washington Blade: Todd Hughes, who was nominated by President Barack Obama in 2013 to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
California's two senators, both Democrats, Dianne Feinstein, the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Kamala Harris, have come out against Bumatay's nomination. The Associated Press reported that Feinstein and Harris are opposing the nominations of Bumatay and two other judicial nominees because the California lawmakers were not consulted prior to their nominations. You took the deal to run away and campaign at home lady. You live with it.

Openly homosexual, Filipino (person of colour), California, Harvard and Yale... and conservative? Sounds like a Rantburg kind of guy. Perhaps he can rule on Twitter’s ban of Gay Patriot.
Amusing that in his second year in office President Trump has already doubled Mr. Obama’s count of one homosexual appointed —and that in eight years.
[PRESSTV] The vice chairman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) says he predicts there is "no way" that Republicans would be able to preserve their majority in the US House of Representatives.
Michael Blake made the comment in an interview with The Hill on Tuesday, three weeks before the midterm elections.
"There is no way the Republicans are going to hold the House," he said, downplaying reports of GOP voters becoming more motivated to cast their ballots.
The DNC official said the upcoming elections was becoming similar to 2016 in that many disaffected voters eventually decided to reconcile with their party.
"At the end of the day, the polling has essentially leveled out where we expected. People came back home," he said.
Blake, however, said a repeat of the last presidential election is unlikely as Democrats have learned from their former presidential nominee Perennial Presidential Campaigner Hillary Crooked Hillary Clinton ... former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away... ’s decision to take certain states’ votes for granted.
"The biggest difference is that we didn’t mobilize our base," Blake said. "When you look at Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania in particular, we did not mobilize as Democrats in these areas that we should have. If you don’t campaign in Wisconsin after losing in the primary, if you don’t mobilize in Western Michigan, you don’t mobilize in Western Pennsylvania, you’re going to lose those states."

He could be right. Or he could be whistling past the graveyard. Time will tell.

Judicial Watch, I believe found that there are some 3.5 million more registered voters than there are live adults in the US. San Diego led that charge with something over 800,000, uh, additional registers vs actual adult population.

Why would anybody expect a DNC liar official to say anything positive about the RNC's chances? The more they talk the more it seems that they are nervous.
#6
I've had a gut hunch that there isn't a blue wave for a while. The party in power usually loses seats during the mid terms like clockwork. But this isn't usual times.
I predict the dems will either be a few seats short or a few seats over for the House. It will basically be deadlocked for the next 2 years.
As for the Senate, the pubs will actually gain 2-3 seats.
So if there is sometime of impeachment push from the house, it certainly won't go anywhere. Expect more deadlock and little of nothing happening for the next couple years.

Michael, since there's ZERO CHANCE, can I bullwhip your ass in the public square on live TV if you're wrong? I mean, there's ZERO CHANCE, right?

A lot of this is self inflicted - several GOP candidates screwed up, and the seats will flip back the next term once they put a decent candidate up.
Senat on the other hand is looking like 54 and maybe as many as 56-7 seats. So go ahead and tryo to impeach Trump - the Senate is where the trial is held, and they'll dismiss it right away.
[DAILYCALLER] Republican Rep. Martha McSally criticized her Democratic challenger Rep. Kyrsten Sinema during the Arizona Senate debate on Monday for saying she doesn’t care if Americans want to fight for the Taliban ...Arabic for students... "CNN reported that in 2003, while [Sinema] was on the radio, [she] said it was okay for Americans to join the Taliban to fight against us," McSally said. "You said you had no problem with that!"
McSally’s comment was in reference to audio that surfaced while Sinema was on a radio show with a libertarian activist.
"As an individual, if I want to go fight in the Taliban army, I go over there and I’m fighting for the Taliban. I’m saying that’s a personal decision," the host said in the interview.
"Fine," Sinema responded. "I don’t care if you want to do that, go ahead."

...I am not a huge McSally fan - while she was flying Hogs, she did her duty and did it well, but with something of a 'hey-look-at-ME' attitude, and my understanding is that she's never wrong; just ask her - but she needs to win this one.

I like her. She was not my rep, but was good enough to converse. I think of her as a fighter pilot, sorta, never wrong, just ask her. I can deal with that. I know maybe eight fighter pilots, they are all the same. God bless them.

[BREITBART] Democrat Ammar Campa-Najjar has deleted an Instagram post in which he referred to his grandfather, Paleostinian terrorist Muhammad Yusef al-Najjar, as a "legend."
Muhammad Yusef al-Najjar was "was "a senior member of the Paleostinian terrorist group Black September that murdered 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics," according to the Times of Israel, and a deputy for Paleostine Liberation Organization (PLO) leader Yasser Arafat.
Earlier this year, when Campa-Najjar’s roots were first reported, he condemned his grandfather’s actions and supported peace.
But in a 2015 Instagram post praising his father, who is a former Paleostinian Authority (PA) official and Paleostinian ambassador, Campa-Najjar referred to his grandfather as a "legend." He offered no criticism or condemnation of his grandfather’s terrorist acts.
Breitbart News reported the existence of that Instagram post on Monday, as well as another in which he noted that his family was close to Yasser Arafat’s. The Campa-Najjar campaign declined to comment, and by Tuesday both posts had been taken down, and the account made "private." Both posts, however, survive as screen shots.

Is Hitler a Legend? Legends are filled with evil gods and bad people after all. I applaud his bringing attention to his families terrorist roots, not to judge him by his ancestors but so voters can see he is proud of them and judge him by that.
#2
AM radio news (not conservative) announced his denial that the PLO was a "terrorist organization". Hunter is my 'critter and I'll still vote for him over
"Campa" Najjar - note the Campa was recently added to try and gin up American Hispanics' support. They don't like illegal floods either.Hunter will win and straighten his shit out or primaried in 2020

[BIZPACREVIEW] For those who haven’t been paying attention, Sen. Orrin Hatch ...Republican Senator-for-Life from Utah. The state does have two senators but nobody can remember who the other guy is... ’s Twitter account can be lit, with the Utah Republican dishing out snark on an epic level, as seen Monday when he mocked Sen. Elizabeth Fauxchahontas Warren ...Dem Senatrix from Massachussetts, who traces her noble lineage all the way back to Big Chief Spouting Bull. It has been alleged that she speaks with forked tongue but she denies that... over her just released DNA test.
Hatch killed it when he tweeted, "These DNA tests are quite something."
Included in the tweet was a joke that he may have the same percentage T-Rex in him as Warren has Native American: "DNA Test Results 1/1032 T-Rex. The rest: other dinosaurs."

Well, He's an aggressive old Senate guy,
Dinosaur National Monument IS in Utah and
Warren is as much a WASP as I am.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
