First Lady Jill Biden was gorgeous as she presented two awards at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday, February 5. Biden presented one of the major awards for the night when she announced the winner of the Song of the Year winner, which went to Bonnie Raitt for her song “Just Like That.” She looked absolutely stunning as she presented the major award. The first lady’s Oscar de la Renta-designed gown was shining silver and it also had some nature-inspired designs throughout it. Besides the sparkling silver, there were some gold leaves on the dress. She looked excited to...

I've ben trying real hard to put myself in side the head of a typical democrat. There has to be something going for the party if they can get 60 million(plus 20 million added) to vote for them. So I've put myself in the shoes of a typical democrat (probably something like a suburban millenial or intercity minority). Here is what I believe and why I love Biden so much. I believe it is better to import oil at high prices rather than use our own oil. I believe I want the right to kill my babies up until birth....

My wife and I went to see Elvis…again…I am seldom moved by a motion picture but this one is special. First let me lead with the fact that I am 75 years old. Elvis was a big part of my youth and life. His career span 23 years, a relative short time for the impact he made. He’s been dead for forty five years and as far as I know no single artist has even gotten close to his success. The Beatles and Stones have but I said single artist. I was seven years old when he started out, I...

The Pelosis may want to skip the wine tasting this time. A little more than a month after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband Paul was busted for DUI in California — leaving him facing jail time — the multi-millionaire couple was spotted at a ritzy resort on the Italian seaside owned by legendary tenor Andrea Bocelli. The Post exclusively obtained photos of the couple — Nancy dressed in all white with Paul clad in dark-colored shorts and shirt — hanging with Bocelli, his wife Veronica Berti, and others at the Alpemare Beach Club. The California Democrat was also pictured in...

A group of topless women ran onto the court at a WNBA game in Brooklyn on Tuesday night to protest the leaked Supreme Court draft decision that could overturn Roe vs. Wade. The women stormed the floor during the New York Liberty's game against the Minnesota Lynx on Tuesday night at Barclays Center in New York City. They are seen in multiple videos taken by fans in attendance walking onto the court holding signs, with some only covered up by what appears to be green paint. Several also had red paint between their legs. As the women ran onto the...

2021 09 16 By Pollock **UNDERSTANDING THE LEFTIST AGENDA** I posted the following on Sept. 25, 2016 ..just weeks before the election. Hillary's defeat was likely the luckiest thing to happen in the history of our nation...unfortunately not all of our citizens recognize that ..YET..!! The battle is constant and very far from over. Hillary's loss has further emboldened and turned the Left and ALL the long time corrupt Political Establishment into a huge seething pack of cornered Rats fighting to the death to maintain their power and wealth...a fight for their very existence. That should be obvious to anyone...

Americans and most of the global population for over a year have been consumed with fear, sacrifices and concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic. But few people have understood or been given a chance to support or reject what is best seen as the wait for the vaccine pandemic strategy. Hidden from public view was a most substantial tradeoff between doing what was feasible to save lives of most people infected by COVID starting in the early months of the pandemic versus placing priority on waiting for COVID vaccines to be the pandemic salvation. This tradeoff violated key principles and ethics...

Dear Patriots, This is going upset some people but tough dodo. We need constitutional amendment to change the constitution. Let me explain. The newbie goes to Washington full of Piss and vinegar, then he gets to Washington, then he meets the swamp creature’s democrat and republican and the committee chairman tells them he has to vote the way they say/ want (no choice) not to rock the boat. Because they have the power. The Swamp people who have been there in Congress for 10 -20-30-50 years tells the newly elected congressman OR woman that unless they vote the way the...

White House adviser Ivanka Trump on Tuesday was met with a friendly reception from the crowd while delivering a keynote address at the CES tech gathering in Las Vegas, the nation's biggest consumer electronics trade show.(Snip) Brianna Wu, a video game developer who is running for Congress in Massachusetts, tweeted before the event that Ivanka Trump "is not a woman in tech" and that her invitation to CES was a "lazy attempt to emulate diversity."

Hunter Biden spent several thousand dollars at a Manhattan strip club during a pair of visits — including one that sent a staffer scrambling to buy a sex toy so strippers could use it on him, sources told The Post on Wednesday. Biden — who’s been dogged by a series of strip-club allegations uncovered by The Post this week — was accompanied by a woman both times he went to Larry Flynt’s Hustler Club NYC in Hell’s Kitchen about a year ago, the sources said. On each occasion, he and his companion holed up in a private room, where they...

Murderers with poisonous ideologies have taken the lives of innocents once again. And the response is the same as it always is: Politicians turn to the proven solution of creating yet more felonies to criminalize law-abiding gun owners. Won’t it be fun to imprison an elderly widow who transfers her husband’s old shotgun to a neighbor without a background check? Or give a felony record to a young worker who has a rifle the bureaucracy classifies an “assault weapon” because it has one of those deadly adjustable stocks? Almost all guns are sold by licensed dealers, who are required to...

Ah well as they say, Christmas comes early for us on the sane side of the aisle. Doyenne F. In a last second, hail Mary bomb, tried her damndest to sabotage the nomination of Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Firstly, I hope the reps hone in on this and drive it down the throats of America, the cheap, back-handed, dirty politics that this ilk will stoop to to get their way. Which is to say, they will do anything. It is a tremendous campaign point and I would hope that someone would (leak the substance of this report, or should...

President Donald Trump has been formulating a plan to fire Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Vanity Fair reported on Wednesday. Sessions has been a target of Trump's ire since he recused himself from the FBI's Russia investigation last March, following reports that he was not forthcoming during his Senate confirmation hearing about his contacts with Russian officials during the 2016 campaign season. Sessions' recusal is a key point of frustration for Trump, who once reportedly asked why he couldn't order "my guys" at the "Trump Justice Department" to do what"weak" and McCabe, whom Trump described as "a Comey friend who McCabe...

When a cop needs an excuse to search something (but can't manage to talk the citizen into consenting) there's almost always a four-legged cop waiting in the wings to give the cop permission to do what he wanted to do anyway. You will rarely hear testimony given in any court case where a K9 hasn't "alerted" to the smell of drugs. Once this "alert" is delivered, officers are free to override objections to warrantless searches under the theory that a dog's permission is all that's needed. What's willfully ignored by law enforcement officers is the nature of the beasts they...

AA JEFFERSON COUNTY — Written by Jeff Branick: I originally wrote this letter in October, but at the request of a friend, delayed sending it for 90 days. It is now shorter than it was originally. I grew up in Port Arthur with a grandfather, uncle, father, brother and sister who were union members and then I went to law school. My earlier experiences led me to believe, as I still do, that collective bargaining and a fair civil justice system are good things. Those experiences also led me to become a member of the Democratic Party because I believed...

Commission on Human Rights One's internal, deeply-held sense of one’s gender as male, female, or something else entirely. A transgender person is someone whose gender identity does not match the sex they were assigned at birth. GENDER IDENTITY In New York City, it’s illegal to discriminate on the basis of gender identity and gender expression in the workplace, in public spaces, and in housing. The NYC Commission on Human Rights is committed to ensuring that transgender and gender non-conforming New Yorkers are treated with dignity and respect and without threat of discrimination or harassment. External representations of gender as expressed...
