Making Liberty Great Again

The streets of Little Havana in Miami are still filled with celebration over the death of the murderous communist dictator Fidel Castro. As quoted during one Fox News segment a Cuban-American shares:

…I’m happy Fidel Castro is dead and Donald Trump is my President”…

(Via Donald Trump) “Today, the world marks the passing of a brutal dictator who oppressed his own people for nearly six decades. Fidel Castro’s legacy is one of firing squads, theft, unimaginable suffering, poverty and the denial of fundamental human rights.

Diverse interview with Nigel Farage this morning discussing the death of Fidel Castro, the nuances of the Donald Trump transition to power and the roadblocks faced in Britain by those who oppose Brexit…

Just in time for Christmas if you have an extra $2,800 for that special cowboy in your life, well, there’s a first-edition Texas cattleman’s style Trump cowboy hat available:

TEXAS – It was through acquaintances that [American Hat Co.] was asked to make Trump an authentic cowboy hat. Mundee said Trump, during a campaign stop recently, had mentioned the quality of Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller’s cowboy hat. Treasure Maddox, daughter of American Hat Co. owners Keith and Susan Maddox, and her significant other, Andrew Graves, are acquaintances with Eric Trump, Donald Trump’s second oldest son.

(Via Bloomberg) Hillary Clinton’s campaign lawyer announced plans to participate in vote recounts of Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan if they take place, yet doesn’t expect to overturn the election of Donald Trump as president.
[…] The Democrat’s campaign didn’t plan to initiate recounts on its own because it hasn’t found “any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology,” Elias wrote.

Oh boy, this has been one stupendously wonderful Thanksgiving weekend so far.
Andrew Breitbart always knew the best way to create SSH (Spontaneous ‘Splodey Heads) was to enjoy life.  Nothing makes a miserable blame-casting leftist more filled with angst and teeth gnashing rage than to see people enjoying life.
The professional white-paper analysts are calling it the Trump effect:
♦ The stock market is soaring; ♦ domestic futures are through the roof; ♦ the KPI economic indicators are all pointing to the cusp of massive economic expansion; ♦ the first 24 hours of holiday sales are exceeding all expectations; ♦ and the consumer confidence index has had the largest single two-week surge in its history.   A White Hat Salute is in order:

It is entirely doubtful that anyone with a modicum of political knowledge doesn’t already know this.  However, that said, a new report from The Hill outlines a phone call between President Obama and candidate Hillary Clinton urging her to concede:
(Via The Hill) […] “You need to concede,” Obama told his former secretary of State as she, her family, and her top aides continued to watch results trickle in from the key Rust Belt states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. The latter state, called after 1:30 a.m. by The Associated Press, was the clear tipping point for the White House race, ensuring Trump would crest over the 270 electoral-vote threshold needed to win.
Clinton ultimately heeded Obama’s advice and called Trump to acknowledge her defeat in the early morning hours Wednesday. (more…)

The difference between the Democrat and Republican party has always been the distinction between one side who will do anything, say anything, manipulate anything, and fight to the death to get their way – and the other party being polite Republican surrender monkeys.

Any intellectually honest observer didn’t need to look any further than the construct of ObamaCare in 2009/2010 to find the legislative representation of this political truism.
Or perhaps a person might remember the leftist takeover of the Wisconsin capitol building because they lost the 2010 election.  Further still remember the newly minority Wisconsin Democrats actually fleeing the state and attempting to disrupt the legislative session simply by refusing to participate.
The Jill Stein filing for a recount in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania is simply an extension of this aforementioned behavior.   The goal is not to change the election outcome, that possibility is beyond absurd, the goal is Alinsky opposition: create mayhem, cause angst, create disruption, seed doubt, undermine, isolate, marginalize the opponent. These moonbat behaviors are simply the antagonistic leftists fulfilling the nature of their ideology.

*Note* It appears the Trump Transition Website has be having technical issues.
Breitbart is announcing the addition of Don McGahn as Chief White House Counsel, which follows a natural flow from McGahn’s prior role as campaign counsel:
(Via Breitbart) President-elect Donald Trump has selected former FEC chairman Don McGahn to serve in his administration as White House counsel and an assistant to the president.
“Don has a brilliant legal mind, excellent character and a deep understanding of constitutional law,” Trump said in a statement. “He will play a critical role in our administration, and I am grateful that he is willing to serve our country at such a high-level capacity.” (read more)

Breitbart is also announcing that KT McFarland will be joining the White House National Security team: (more…)

A very interesting and insightful interview with King Abdullah II of Jordan.  The discussion includes perspectives on the incoming Donald Trump presidency, the Syrian and Mid-East conflict and the larger issues of radical Islamic extremism.
Well worth watching, especially if you have followed the evolutionary relationship between Jordan, Egypt and Russia. If you don’t have time for the full interview watch the first 7-8 minutes:

The people who make this stuff are brilliant.  So creative and funny. Enjoy:
