    It sure seems declaring "Yes, she is Native American" because of one ancestor six-to-ten generations back would be insulting to someone who is actually Native American, but what do I know?

    Democratic candidates in mid-term races have almost completely ignored the Trump/Russia issue because "most Americans are barely following the Mueller investigation’s intricate legal movements" & "voters don’t want to talk about it."

    IT TOOK THEM TWO DAYS TO CORRECT THIS. During that time, most media outlets, and many political hacks, RT'd this fake STORY. Many continue to argue that the original tweet was right even now! You want to know why the media can't touch Trump? THIS IS WHY.

    CORRECTION: An earlier tweet misidentified the general President Trump described as "incredible" at a rally in Ohio. It was Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, not Gen. Robert E. Lee. An attached video clip lacked the full context for Trump's remark. Here is the full clip.

    A sword?

    Tonight in NYC the called people they considered to be “antifa” faggots as they beat them up. Gavin McInnes brandished a sword. The police provided them with protection. Then created this bullshit story.

    They chose an incredibly flattering photo of her. I suspect that matters much more than whatever is in the article I haven’t read yet—and may never (a lesson we learned from Reagan).

    This rings true. The anti-patriotism stuff was BS. But it’s not a great film.

    Just got back from "First Man." I'd advise taking a pass on it. The flag issue was silly, but it's just not a very good movie. Way too much shaky cam and pan-zoom blur outside of action sequences, plus surprisingly grainy (saw it on Imax).1/x

    Look, I’ve been as caught up in the ‘Beto-is-cool bromance’ as anybody. But at some point, this becomes a parody of itself.

    You don't get opportunities through your college network. You get them through your personal network. If you went to college, you met some of those people in college. If you didn't, you met them wherever else you did. You build relationships and reputation, you don't buy them.
