In other news, 95,000 votes are being examined here in Texas to determine whether or not they were citizens at the time they voted.
But non-citizens don’t vote. BS. Hillary lost. And I’ll be damned if foreigners aren’t voting illegally in MASSIVE numbers.

Fallen Ex New York AG Eric Schneiderman Appears To Rebound As Meditation Teacher/
By Carl Campanile and Aaron Feis January 30, 2019 | 7:11pm | Updated
“Now he’s a downward-facing dog.
Disgraced former New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman — who abruptly resigned in May amid bombshell allegations of sexual harassment and physical abuse by four women — appears to have resurfaced as a meditation teacher.
“We are SO proud to announce that we graduated two phenomenal classes of meditation teachers this weekend!” reads a since-deleted Monday Facebook post by Manhattan-based The Path Meditation, above a photo that appears to show the scandal-scarred former lawman beaming amid rows of fellow graduates, his right arm draped over a female classmate’s shoulder. “All are now certified meditation teachers, and we’re looking forward to see how they’ll spread their wisdom and joy.”
The posting did not identify Schneiderman by name.
Pals of Schneiderman told The Post in the wake of his May resignation — just hours after the firestorm allegations were reported by The New Yorker — Schneiderman had indeed been pursuing some sorely needed enlightenment.
“He meditates. He goes on retreats,” a friend previously said. “I think he sought Buddhism to alleviate internal pain.”
But one of Schneiderman’s alleged victims, Michelle Manning Barish, said her former boyfriend was the last person qualified to guide anyone to their inner light.
“This is SICKENING,” Barish tweeted Wednesday afternoon. “#EricSchneiderman has no business teaching anything.”
“This is a disgrace and irresponsible to unleash a predator who has not had proper treatment other than a certificate program at a meditation school to now go and prey on women at ashrams and yoga centers.”

The left loves its own sinners, and a quick counseling retreat (i.e. vacation spa visit) is generally enough to get them fully reinstated, often with additional cred for their “rehabilitation” effort. Hey, it’s a great club – do whatever the hell you want, make some lame apology if caught, and then it’s all good again.

Republicans cave on shutdowns because for some reason they get blamed for them. They are going to have to do one of two things unless they want to be blackmailed into giving democrats everything they want via shutdown blackmail.
They either need to pass the legislation someone came up with that eliminates shutdowns. It basically would default to a CR of current spending with a 1% spending reduction every quarter until a budget is passed. That puts pressure on Dems to give in a little.
The other option would be to do away with Senate 60 vote filibuster rule. Majority leader can still control what bills come to the floor and attempt to get best bill that Republicans can agree to (and then resolve through budget reconcilliation).
If Republicans leave the status quo in place…..they might as well let Nancy Pelosi run the House, Senate, and White House single handedly. They would be useless in any process.

Four years too late — Trump properties should have been cleaned up WELL BEFORE June, 2015!!
After his many campaign pronouncements on illegal immigration (THE issue that made me jump on board right away), I had assumed he knew all about E-Verify and actually USED it. Oh, well, I hope the Dems don’t leverage this, and that he can use it as a “teachable moment”, demonstrate how easy to use and effective it is.

They are using it now. Not using it relies on ability and good intention of low level managers to enforce the law and detect possible fraudulent documents. E-Verify takes human misjudgement out of the picture. That’s why AZ law years ago specified that use of E-Verify by employer would protect employer from claims by worker that he discriminated.
Often the mere sign in the window “WE USE E-VERIFY” will deter illegala from attempting employment.
SOMEBODY should have told candidate Trump, “If illegal immigration will be a main policy issue, best tidy up your own businesses first.” I HOPE this does not become ammunition for Dems, and probably not, ’cause they hate E-Verify!!
What SHOULD be done is pass law to FORCE IRS and Soc. Sec. Admin to share data and alert each individual when their Soc. Sec. number is used to apply for work!!! IRS and Soc. Sec. currently refuse to do this.

Excerpt:
The Public Opinion Strategies survey, conducted for the Republican National Committee, provides some comfort for the president that he retains his knack for connecting with the concerns of people overlooked elsewhere.
The data were collected in 10 districts in Minnesota, New York, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Maine, Virginia and New Jersey. In those locations, voters were more likely to support the president’s position on border security.
‘By a 53 percent-43 percent margin, voters in these Dem-held congressional districts support “building a border wall or barrier to improve security between the US and Mexico,”’ conclude the authors.
