Undeterred by the waves of criticism coming at him from the left, President Donald Trump continued slamming Rep. Elijah Cummings on Sunday, tweeting that the House Oversight Committee Chairman was actually the “r****t” one in their feud.

“If r****t Elijah Cummings would focus more of his energy on helping the good people of his district, and Baltimore itself, perhaps progress could be made in fixing the mess that he has helped to create over many years of incompetent leadership,” Trump wrote. “His radical ‘oversight’ is a joke!”

The attack on Sunday was a continuation from Saturday when Trump labeled Cummings a “brutal bully” for his remarks on the Border Patrol. Trump said that there were places in Cummings’ Baltimore district that were “far worse” than any migrant detention center in the country, a fact that few Democrats wanted to acknowledge. Alas, since it would take a pretty astounding battery of lies to actually refute Trump’s comments about Baltimore, Democrats did what they always do when backed into a corner: They screamed “r****t” and fled for the doors.

“We all reject r****t attacks against Cummings and support his steadfast leadership,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tweeted Saturday.

Trump didn’t hesitate to respond: “There is nothing r****t in stating plainly what most people already know, that Elijah Cummings has done a terrible job for the people of his district, and of Baltimore itself. Dems always play the race card when they are unable to win with facts. Shame!”

The t***h is, there is no message that Democrats can use to refute Trump’s comments without resorting to the R-word. Cummings’ insistence that he fights daily for his district is undermined by the fact that he’s been representing them since 1996. For more than 25 years, this i***t has had every tool at his disposal to actually do something meaningful and productive for his constituency. Now, the question is, what has he done in all that time?

Well, Baltimore, as reported by all the left’s favorite news outlets like the New York Times, is doing worse than ever. In 2017, the city had an astounding 2,000 violent crimes per 100,000 people. These statistics make the city more dangerous than 99% of American cities. This is evidence of the great work Elijah Cummings is doing in Baltimore? We’d h**e to see what the city would look like if he didn’t do anything.

But this is the man deemed competent enough to provide “oversight” on the Executive Branch. The very idea is silly beyond words. And Democrats’ inability to face the hard t***hs about many of the cities under their control is exactly why we need desperately to keep them out of the White House.

It's a joke to call Trump a r****t do to the fact that Rep. Elijah Cummings is black. That is what they are doing.

1984 On Steroids: California to Launch Cradle to Career Data Tracking
• Just in case we haven't provided you with enough creepy dystopian news lately, the nation's leader in Creepy Dystopia, California, has a brand new program.
• The "Cradle to Career Data System" will study and document everything about a child born in the state.
• But don't worry, it's for your children's own good.
• What the heck is the "Cradle to Career Data System"?
• Beginning at birth and stalking the child until he or she joins the workforce, California wants to keep an eye on all sorts of demographics and variables.
• They'll do this by collecting information from "partner entities."
• They'll use this information, according to the Pasadena Star, to "provide appropriate interventions and supports to address disparities in opportunities and improve outcomes for all students."
• Who are these partner entities, you ask?
• The "partner entities" include (but are not limited to):
o State entities responsible for elementary and secondary education data
o Entities responsible for early learning data
o Segments of public higher education
o Private colleges and universities
o State entities responsible for student financial aid
o Childcare providers
o State labor and workforce development agencies
o And state departments administering health and human services programs.
• So, your kid's teachers, principals, professors, babysitters, and the purveyors of any state services you happen to use will all cough up every detail of your child's life.
• Of course, California just wants to help.
• This to me has hints of c*******t countries who pluck the brightest students from their home.
• And educate them to work for the state.
• However, the admitted goal is data collection for the folks who make the rules.
• Easily the creepiest thing to come out of California since "The Silence of the Lambs" was released into theaters, the "Cradle to Career Data System" aims to collect the ethnic, economic and educational records of every child in the state.
• Track their grades and their progress into early adulthood.
• And make some form of the data available to policy makers, analysts and activists.
• This isn't a maybe.
• It's already passed as a trailer bill (so it didn't go through the usual legislative process).
• And has been funded with a budget of $10 million.
• The governor's Office of Planning and Research is now authorized to enter into contracts with "planning facilitators" who will convene advisory groups "comprised of representatives of students, parents, labor, business and industry, equity and social justice organizations, researchers, privacy experts, early education experts, school districts, charter schools, and county offices of education."
• Californians, your children's privacy is at stake here.
• They are going to become part of a pile of data that will be used to enact future laws to assure "equity."
• But at any time, these records will be there, the life of your child, every time they got sent to the principal's office, who stands up to authority, who has special sk**ls or talents, what the child's parents are like.
• That person's entire life in one handy file.
• And pardon me if I don't believe the data collection will stop once they get a job.
• Data is king right now.
• So why give up on a good thing?
• We're already tracked everywhere we go once we're old enough to have a cellphone or use the internet.
• But this starts right, as the title of the program points out, at the cradle.
• Why are they doing this?
• It's all about "social justice."
• Think quotas on steroids.
• "Advocates have been demanding data for the people in the Golden State for years," the Equity Alert explains.
• To "answer key questions about whether and how our state schools, colleges, universities, and workforce systems are closing racial equity gaps and serving Californians."
• It sounds as if the goal is to go beyond laws that ban discrimination and beyond affirmative action into a brave new world, one in which government bureaucrats tally the economic success of each racial and ethnic group and sub-group and award government funding in an effort to reach "equity."
• Of course, we all know that things like this are actually not equitable.
• At least not to kids from groups who are not considered to be "at risk."
• There's no word yet on whether or not parents will be able to opt out on behalf of their offspring.
• This certainly normalizes being surveilled.
• We've written a great deal on this site about the social credit system and the surveillance state in which we live.
• To me, a program like this seems like just another nail in the coffin of privacy.
• Don't think that this will stop at the border of California.
• These kids will, from their first moment of awareness, be concerned about their permanent record.
• That's an awfully big burden to put on someone who still eats with his fingers and wears pull-ups to bed.
• These children will spend their entire lives under a microscope, for better or for worse, while some data entry person types their every action of note into their record.
• If you want to have a social credit system like the one in China, I guess you've got to start early.

What do you suppose goes on in "closed society" Muslim enclaves such as those in Dearborn, Michigan and parts of Minnesota, just as in the "no-go" zones in European countries?

Do you think the imams in the neighborhood mosques hold classes on U.S. Constitution 101? Do you honestly believe those folks give a rat's touchas about infidel laws that contradict those of Sharia where no outsiders are looking over their shoulder?

Say, can I interest you in a beautiful beachfront property only a half hour's drive from Tucson? 😁

Everything I Don’t Like Is R****t

The Democrats’ 2020 Campaign Theme Is 'You Americans Are Terrible'

There is a new trend in politics that’s a hit with all the kids. It’s been around for a while, but was never really as popular as it is right now. So, in the interest of science, I’ve decided to hop on “The Squad” train and try thinking like a progressive member of Congress. How hard could it be?

I was driving to the grocery store the other day and the person in the left turn lane ahead of me did not turn when there was clearly enough room for him to go. I sat there, angry, and then I asked myself, “What would Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez do?” Then it all came together.

Whoever this concentration camp guard in front of me was, he was clearly a r****t. I was driving, so I couldn’t tweet about my oppression; I had to settle for yelling, “C’mon, man, stop being R****T!” out the window. This only seemed to confuse the guy. Then I it occurred to me that the person driving that gave the appearance of a balding middle-aged man might not identify as a man. The government, I thought, should require people to put their preferred pronouns on bumper stickers so no one mis-g****rs them while cursing them out.

Once inside the store, things did not improve.

I couldn’t help but notice a white woman buying avocados. Cultural appropriation much? I shot her the evil eye. It didn’t deter her from buying four, but I think my point was made.

Well, I thought my point was made. Later, I saw her with tortilla chips and salsa in her basket too. I h**e crime, right there in the chip aisle. Did I mention she was white? She should stick to potato chips!

No one else seemed bothered, which made it all the more difficult to take. I felt like a stranger in my own Safeway. Then I channeled by inner-Ilhan Omar to solve the problem. No, I didn’t marry my brother (allegedly) or blame the Jews, I thought of her strength in being able to move that wonderful Utopia that is Somalia to the horrible, awful, no good, cesspool of the United States. The years of oppression as she was educated in a land that was seemingly founded to keep her down. Still, she rose. The r****t state of Minnesota that was so cruel it elected her to its state Senate. The country, so Islamophobic that it elected her to the United States House of Representatives. Her surviving those horrors, gave me the courage to endure.

But that courage was soon tested in the meat section.

While browsing through various cuts of beef, pork, lamb, chicken, etc., I came across bags of sauerkraut. I’m part German, so you could imagine my horror over finding one of the foods of Germany, of “my people,” tossed indifferently among packages of meat. I nearly dropped to the floor, ready to go fetal and yearn for some Playdoh and a safe space.

It was then I remembered the words of Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts who, bravely, demanded conformity from people, especially people of color, when she said, “We don’t need any more brown faces that don’t want to be a brown voice. We don’t need any more black faces that don’t want to be a black voice.” As a part German, I would be a part German voice. I was ready.

Of course, it was just sauerkraut, so there wasn’t anything to do about it. But I came away stronger. I came away ready to confront other affronts to my people, should they occur. I now feel prepared to deal with any corned beef or, God forbid, Haggis I may encounter. I will be a voice for those of us with no color, or the “clear,” as I identify.

Or at least I thought.

I was confused by an endcap display of mayonnaise (typical, am I right?) and suddenly discovered myself in a section of the store I generally avoid – the greeting card section. There were cards for every occasion, and worse, cards for g****rs…exactly two g****rs. How exclusive.

Then I remembered the example of Rashida Tlaib. How would she handle this injustice, I wondered? With the grace and dignity for which she is known – she would have cursed out everyone in the aisle and likely the cards themselves. How else would everyone else, and even the cards, learn how r****t they were, even though this had nothing to do with race? Only a N**i would ask such a question.

While I didn’t yell the prospect of it brought me back from the edge.

All of this r****m was almost too much to handle. Thoughts of the Squad got me through. I owe them a debt I’ll never be able to repay, a r********n I’ll owe in perpetuity, if you will.

Then I realized this was a horrible way to go through a trip to the store, let alone life. I turned my brain back on, paid for my groceries, and thanked the Good Lord that I don’t live on the planet liberals have created in their minds. All we have to do now is work tirelessly to ensure left-wing guttersnipes like the Gang of Four are never in a position to make their fantasy our reality.
