Gee, I heard he did not want to live in the White House.. It was a step down... LOL..

The most selfish and greedy people that I know are well off to truly very rich. They have the same needs, they want more and more no matter how much they have.

While Trump seems to fit that pigeon hole very easly, of course I do not know.. We will simply have to wait and see..

I am not jealous... I have enough to be comfortable and happy as I do all this boring stuff for a few more years... Like where and how I live and my family and coffee klatch.. And so on and so forth...

GALT, Calif. (AP)€” California is taking its fight against global warming to the farm.

The nation's leading agricultural state is now targeting greenhouse gases produced by dairy cows and other livestock.

Despite strong opposition from farmers, Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation in September that for the first time regulates heat-trapping gases from livestock operations and landfills.

Cattle and other farm animals are major sources of methane, a greenhouse gas many times more potent than carbon dioxide as a heat-trapping gas. Methane is released when they belch, pass gas and make manure.

"If we can reduce emissions of methane, we can really help to slow global warming," said Ryan McCarthy, a science adviser for the California Air Resources Board, which is drawing up rules to implement the new law.

Livestock are responsible for 14.5 percent of human-induced greenhouse gas emissions, with beef and dairy production accounting for the bulk of it, according to a 2013 United Nations report.

Since the passage of its landmark global warming law in 2006, California has been reducing carbon emissions from cars, trucks, homes and factories, while boosting production of renewable energy.

In the nation's largest milk-producing state, the new law aims to reduce methane emissions from dairies and livestock operations to 40 percent below 2013 levels by 2030, McCarthy said. State officials are developing the regulations, which take effect in 2024.

"We expect that this package ... and everything we're doing on climate, does show an effective model forward for others," McCarthy said.

Dairy farmers say the new regulations will drive up costs when they're already struggling with five years of drought, low milk prices and rising labor costs. They're also concerned about a newly signed law that will boost overtime pay for farmworkers.

"It just makes it more challenging. We're continuing to lose dairies. Dairies are moving out of state to places where these costs don't exist," said Paul Sousa, director of environmental services for Western United Dairymen.

The dairy industry could be forced to move production to states and countries with fewer regulations, leading to higher emissions globally, Sousa said.

"We think it's very foolish for the state of California to be taking this position," said Rob Vandenheuvel, general manager for the Milk Producers Council. "A single state like California is not going to make a meaningful impact on the climate."

Regulators are looking for ways to reduce so-called enteric emissions€” methane produced by bovine digestive systems. That could eventually require changes to what cattle eat.

But the biggest target is dairy manure, which accounts for about a quarter of the state's methane emissions.

State regulators want more farmers to reduce emissions with methane digesters, which capture methane from manure in large storage tanks and convert the gas into electricity.

The state has set aside $50 million to help dairies set up digesters, but farmers say that's not nearly enough to equip the state's roughly 1,500 dairies.

New Hope Dairy, which has 1,500 cows in Sacramento County, installed a $4 million methane digester in 2013, thanks to state grants and a partnership with California Biogas LLC, which operates the system to generate renewable power for the Sacramento Municipal Utility District.

Co-owner Arlin Van Groningen, a third-generation farmer, says he couldn't afford one if he had to buy and run it himself.

"The bottom line is it's going to negatively impact the economics of the California dairy industry," Van Groningen said of the new law. "In the dairy business, the margins are so slim that something like this will force us out of state."

State officials say they're committed to making sure the new regulations work for farmers and the environment.

"There's a real opportunity here to get very significant emissions reductions at fairly low cost, and actually in a way that can bring economic benefits to farmers," Ryan said.

This story has been corrected to show that New Hope Dairy has a partnership with California Biogas, not local utility.

Sigh.
Climate change kooks looking to put the dairy industry out of business. Good way for people to lose jobs and food, ergo, another handhold on population control.
I hope that the farmers are able to relocate.
So sad.

Anywhere American law and Islamic law conflict, it’s American law that has to give way.

Islamic supremacists and Muslim Brotherhood organizations like CAIR have once again called upon their running dogs at the Department of Justice, to impose the sharia and usurp American law for Islamic law. The DoJ has become the de facto legal arm of terror-tied Muslim Brotherhood groups in this country. What small town can go up against the U.S. government’s vast resources and endless taxpayer-funded muscle?

In a striking violation of the establishment clause, Obama’s lawless administration is imposing the Shariah nationwide, allowing the rampant construction of rabats and jihad recruitment centers at a time when we should be monitoring the mosques and restricting construction of Muslim Brotherhood beachheads and Islamic State madrassas.

“Justice Dept. sues NJ township for rejecting mosque,” by Kelly Cohen, Washington Examiner, November 22, 2016:

The Justice Department announced on Tuesday it is suing Bernards Township, N.J., because it denied zoning approval for the Islamic Society of Basking Ridge to build a mosque on land it owns.

The township in December unanimously voted down the Islamic Society’s application to build a mosque, which the Justice Department says violates the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act.

In the complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, the department said the denial was discriminatory based on the Islamic Society’s members’ religion. The denial imposed a substantial burden on the Islamic Society’s religious exercise, according to the complaint, it said.

The complaint also alleged that the township violated the law “by amending its zoning ordinance in a manner that imposes unreasonable limitations on all religious assemblies.”

According to Justice Department officials, the land where the Islamic Society wanted to build the mosque is located in a zone that permitted construction of places of worship as a matter of right at the time of the zoning request.

“As alleged in the complaint, Bernards Township has treated the Islamic Society of Basking Ridge differently than other houses of worship,” said U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Paul Fishman in a statement. “RLUIPA ensures that municipalities must treat religious land use applications like any other land use application. But here, township officials kept moving the goalposts by using ever-changing local requirements to effectively deny this religious community the same access as other faiths.”…

I never head of this guy's company and I believe since he is so small that none of this matters. However, I would question whether this is legal. Any person's vote is sacred. I doubt that it is legal to discriminate against anyone by who they voted for.

Now one could question what the difference is between not doing business with those you politically disagree with and Christian bakeries declining to bake Gay Wedding cakes. The difference is that Christian bakeries did not refuse to do business with Gays. They merely refused to create a product, Gay wedding cakes, that violated their religious beliefs. They gladly would sell to Gays any other baked goods they normally create.

This gentleman is not refusing to provide some new service or product. He refuses to do any business with those he opposes politically. I think he is in violation of any number of laws.

Gowdy is my favorite Congressman and I really think he tears into Democrat Congressmen very adeptly. Here is a very good opportunity to hear him talking with the Hag of Chappaqua when he was acting as the chairman of the Special Committee that had been appointed to chair this committee that the Demoncrats felt was no different than the other 7 or 8 committees who hadn't questioned so many witnesses that Gowdy wanted to talk with. Please watch the look on the Hag's face throughout this thing. She has that very arrogant look of Democrats who always seemed to hurt Republican chairmen. Her arrogance never worked on Gowdy but she kept on trying.

There is no low, low enough for the liberal media. God help us and protect our children.

The clapping-seal social media of the largely lib-left anti-Trump movement will do anything and everything to keep Donald Trump from stepping foot into the Oval Office—even throw their own humanity into the wind to go after his 10-year-old son, Barron.

Ravening wolves have come howling at the bedroom door of Barron Trump in a blood-curdling shrieking wolf pack worse than any scene from a Hollywood horror movie.

“Someone” put together a video suggesting that young Barron is autistic. Released one day after Donald Trump’s victory speech, ‘Is Barron Trump Autistic #StoptheBullying’ has already been watched by 1.2 million viewers.

But this time a hysterical, hate-filled social media and their supporting ‘Progressive’ friends have really crossed the Rubicon, because by going after Barron, they are apt to encounter their biggest, most fearsome enemy to date: millions of Mama Grizzlies willing to fight to protect children from the unwarranted and brutal attacks of the Democrats’ sleazy Pretorian Guard.

This is one battle that will see the Mama Grizzlies kicking the butt of social media all the way to where they belong: out on the streets with the Snowflakes protesting Trump’s election.

Millions the world over were proud of young Barron, shown stoically standing behind his father during his November 9 victory speech.

Yet one day later, a video—including gross verbal abuse directed at Barron —was released and is now making its way viral over the Internet.

The video assigns to young Barron the same rolled-back eyes film footage of Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Hillary Clinton is 69. Barron Trump 10.

Because of its filthy expletives and unacceptable brutal bullying of a 10-year-old boy, Canada Free Press is sending readers off site if they want to watch the video, rather than linking to it from here.

The progs and their media have hit rock bottom with the YouTube doing the rounds on this Thanksgiving weekend. A video that ends by coyly asking viewers: “Do you think Barron is autistic?”

The question leaves Barron open to intense speculation.

In video clips that may or may not have been tampered with, the YouTube takes us back to Trump’s election night victory speech when Barron so stoically stood behind his father.

Were the camera clips showing Barron on election night deliberately doctored?

You be the judge.

Though the video narrator suggests after the bullying of Barron as a “blinking little bast—-d, telling him to “Wake the F—k up”, that “bullying is unacceptable whether he is autistic or not”, he adds, “It’s unclear why the Trump family is refusing to confirm or deny if he is autistic”.

The Trumps have “REFUSED” nothing, and all parents—including the Trumps—have the right to want the best for their children and to protect them.

We now live live in a society where 10-year-old children are openly abused on social media.

God help us and protect our children.

I don't. He's going way overboard for some reason. Who would want that man for a boss in the first place?!!
I think he's purposely doing this to try to stir things up, and we ought not take the bait.
I say leave him alone and let his ship sink.
