THIS WEEK’S NEWS
Republican Senate win in Mississippi gives Mitch McConnell
three votes to spare to confirm Trump judges.
Democrats flipped six, possibly seven Congressional seats
from Republican to Democrat in California.
Here’s how they did it. “…a
direct result of ‘ballot harvesting’ allowed under California law for the first
time. That directly caused the (Republican candidate) from being ahead on
election night to losing two weeks later……You can’t just run a traditional
campaign as you did before…..If one party’s harvesting ballots, both parties
need to do it.”
Violent caravan clash after media minimized Trump's warnings. Rock throwing draws tear gas response from
Border Patrol.
Democratic Senator suggests tear gas is like using 'chemical
weapons' on poor migrants..

Ocasio-Cortez likens the would-be illegals crashing the gates of the U.S.
southern border to Jewish Holocaust victims and families fleeing Rwandan

But a new study by USC, hardly a conservative source, finds
that caravan migrants and others like them are overwhelmingly job-seekers and
people looking to join their families. What
they're not is people fleeing violence and persecution. “…improves their
incomes by 1,200 percent by moving to US”
Lice, hepatitis, TB, chicken pox, scabies plague a third of
the caravan migrants.
Seven in 10 Mexicans have a negative view of Central
American caravan migrants. The survey also found that 52 percent of Mexicans
oppose giving work permits to the migrants, 52 percent want those without legal
documents blocked from entering Mexico and 55 percent support cracking down on
future caravans.

The "War on Christmas" has returned once again
this year: Huffington Post skewers a beloved Christmas classic and now lectures
parents on why they should teach their children to say the more inclusive
"Happy Holidays" greeting in December instead of the age-old classic,
"Merry Christmas.”
The media have returned for the time-honored tradition of
bashing the first lady Melania Trump’s White House decorations for absolutely
no reason. After the official unveiling of the decorations Monday, a large
chorus of reporters online have called the First Lady’s Christmas decorations
the likes of “creepy,” “Christmas from Hell,” and “spooky.” The Washington Post
devoted an entire article to criticizing her decorations. Vice said it was a
“Christmas from H**l.” MSNBC hosts said it looked like a scene from ‘The
Shining.’ Slate wondered ‘What message is Melania Trump sending with her red
Christmas trees of death?’

COLUMN OF THE WEEK
Will Brewster 11/29
With every mass murder, bloody war, sexual assault, and
gang-related shooting, there is usually one common denominator:
men. Universally, violence, ambition, aggression, and conquest
appear unique to the male psyche. When unchecked, these attributes
are what many refer to as "toxic masculinity." The
solution to war, crime, violence, and greed is glaringly obvious to
some. We just need to make men less masculine,
right? Would not the world be more peaceful if all men were more
like women? I do not believe so. Today, we need more
masculinity, not less.
Trying to make men more like women does not result in less
toxic masculinity. It results in more. Bad men become good when they are no
longer bad, not when they are no longer men. Violence, aggression, greed, and
ambition cannot be plucked from a male's nature, but they can be harnessed.
The same masculine traits that cause violence were also
found in those young boys who went to Europe in 1942, chasing Adolf Hitler to
his doom. Those same masculine traits that lead to selfish ambition
also led to an American flag being planted on the Moon. Those same masculine
traits that cause greed also led to the development of the American economic
juggernaut. And those same masculine
traits that lead men to make immature and reckless decisions are also those
found in Smokejumpers, the Special Forces, and Coast Guard Rescue
Swimmers. Less masculinity is not the solution to our problems, but
rather better masculinity, and more of it.
Masculinity is a father working hard to provide for his
family; a teenager holding the door open on a first date; a kid who stands up
to the school bully; a team like the Granite Mountain Hotshots, made up of 19
men who burned alive in 2,000 degree heat, fighting a wildfire in Arizona that
everyone else was running from; and a man like Navy SEAL Officer Michael
Murphy, who selflessly sacrificed his life in Afghanistan so his teammate,
Marcus Luttrell, could live.
The growing problem in today's society is not that men are
becoming too masculine, but rather that they are not masculine enough. When men embrace their masculinity, they
become providers, protectors, leaders, and heroes. On the contrary,
when masculinity is lacking, men run away from their true nature, and the
country is littered with the consequences: fatherless homes, leading to an
increased likelihood that their kids will experience anxiety and depression,
get in trouble with the law, and drop out of school; the growing idea that
winning, running up the score, and competition are suddenly a bad thing,
leading to a generation of boys that never learn a crucial lesson in life:
failure; and fewer men brave enough to step up when the times are toughest,
protect the innocent, and engage those who wish to do harm.
Without true masculinity, toxic behavior is not only
increased, but allowed to run rampant, as few good men are left to stop it. We
need more masculinity, not less.

Trump’s successful reading
of the American character and why his crusade as “deprogrammer-in-chief”

GLOBALONEY
The U.S. Global Change Research Program has released its
latest doomsday climate report. The results of the many models are simply
averaged together to create an ensemble of climate models that is used to make
the doomsday predictions. Instead of using the best model to make predictions,
all the models are used as if every model is as good as every other model. The
reason for this is political. If a “best” model were selected, the
scientifically correct approach, that would be breaking the rice bowl of all
the losing modeling groups.

ARTICLES
President Trump is putting the economic screws to Mexico to
control the flood of Central American migrants storming our southern border.
Unlike prior presidents, Trump is driving a hard bargain. Exports are Mexico´s
economic lifeblood. A staggering 81 percent of those exports go to the United
States. That´s why Trump´s threat to close the border -- even for short time --
gets results. Shutting the border shuts down Mexico. Period.
The mainstream media and Democrats have criticized the Trump
administration’s response to the migrant caravans storming the nation’s
southern border. Many of the critiques either don’t provide full context or are
factually incorrect. Here are three
narratives that are wrong.
Liberals constantly assert, without citing any data, that
the U.S. is alone among civilized nations in suffering the phenomenon of mass
shootings. Like so many claims, it suits the Left’s narrative while being
entirely untrue. “Of the 97 countries where we identified mass public
shootings, the U.S. ranks 64th per capita in its rate of attacks and 65th in
fatalities. Major European countries, such as Norway, Finland, France,
Switzerland and Russia, all have at least 25 percent higher per capita murder
rates from mass public shootings.”
Walsh: In the playpen
that has become our politics, feelings are everything. It doesn’t matter what
the facts are, only the emotional effect those facts and their attendant
consequences might have on the party holding the short end of the stick. Lose
an election? Whine and sue. Don’t like the notion of a sovereign nation
defending its borders from an attack using non-lethal means? Emotionalize and
propagandize a picture of a mother and her children fleeing. Everything must
have an emotional component, behind which lies the unspoken accusation: how
would you like it if this happened to you?
Congratulations to the leftists who've taken over the
nation's public education system. They're now producing generations of
Americans who know little about their own country, other than that they hate
it. That's what a new survey shows, anyway.
What’s the matter with Portland?

WORDS
“If duties are too high, they lessen the consumption; the
collection is eluded; and the product to the treasury is not so great as when
they are confined within proper and moderate bounds. This forms a complete
barrier against any material oppression of the citizens by taxes of this class,
and is itself a natural limitation of the power of imposing them.”
