  1. Consistent Surge of People Crossing Illegally

     

    http://www.krgv.com/story/31844858/consistent-surge-of-undocumented-immigrants

     

     

    The number of people crossing the border illegally is on the rise. The Border Patrol chief said the number of people coming across is consistent with the surge two years ago.

     

    Chief Patrol Agent and Commander of the South Texas Corridor Manuel Padilla Jr. insisted this time, his agents are better prepared and border security isn’t in jeopardy.

     

    However, some people don’t agree.

     

    More than 80,000 people crossed the border illegally since October. It includes more unaccompanied children and family members from Central America and Mexico.

     

    It’s about the same as during the immigration crisis of 2014.

    YALE PRESIDENT PETER SALOVEY TELLS ME THAT COLLEGE “MASTERS” AT YALE WILL NOW BE CALLED “HEAD OF COLLEGE.”

     

     

    Why?

     

    The title is rooted in ancient and medieval traditions of learning, b
    ut it is also associated with the ownership of slaves.

     

     

    And only idiots don’t know the difference.

     

    And you’ve just told us that Yale is made up of idiots.

     

    Which, I have to say, the past year or so has seemed to demonstrate.

  3. Outrage ?............................yeah, I suppose.

     

    It's almost like Hollywood wants to confirm Conservatives complaints about them when they pull B.S. like this.

     

     

    But mostly I feel sorry for those low information voters on the Left,

     

    who will actually believe some of the lies in the film.

     

     

     

     

    Notice how this project was held until Nancy passed away, they KNOW they are being slimy, but they just don't care.

     

     

    Its best if they are just ignored.

  4. The bathroom panic isn’t quite as baseless or bigoted as progressives claim.

     

    The truth is that transgenderism has changed dramatically in recent years. Today, a person who is anatomically male and has not undergone any surgical or hormonal treatments may “identify as female.” There is also a growing population, particularly in college, of people who consider themselves “non-binary” — neither male nor female — and demand to use whichever restroom they feel like.

     

    Are women bigoted if they don’t want a person with a bushy beard in their public restroom? Are men bigoted if they don’t want a person with breasts sharing theirs? For most, it’s less a question of safety than privacy (an even bigger concern in locker rooms and fitting rooms). But the scenario of a sexual predator putting on lipstick and claiming a female identity to gain access to a women’s facility is not entirely far-fetched.

     

     

    Some propose phasing out all “gendered” restrooms for ones with fully enclosed stalls and common areas for hand-washing. However, this would entail huge expense and discomfort for most people used to gender-specific facilities.

     

     

    More gender-neutral single-user bathrooms would benefit many people, not necessarily transgender — for instance, parents accompanying an opposite-sex child. Locker-room issues can also be resolved with private accommodations.

     

    But compassionate and common-sense solutions may require compromises. The absolutist demand for a “civil right” to have your preferred gender identity validated regardless of appearance or anatomy can only lead to more culture wars.

  5. Hillary Clinton’s gender gap was bigger than Trump’s in 3/3 primaries last night that had exit polls —>

     

     

     

    How women voted in the Acela Primary

    So, Trump again carried the women’s vote in Tuesdays primaries

     

     

     

     

     

    Hillary Clinton wants gender quotas in her administration — why stop there?

  6. Hacking Hillary: Panama Papers Show Danger of Clinton’s Secret Server. “Hillary’s private email was illegal and ill-defended.”

     

    Some of her defenders on Twitter are saying that, well, there’s lots of overclassification. That’s true, but the stuff Hillary shared on unsecured email wasn’t stuff that shouldn’t have been classified. It was supersensitive stuff, whose exposure was extremely damaging.

     

    Any normal government employee — that is, not a political oligarch shielded by the current corrupt Justice Department — would be facing very serious charges.

  7. Nothing that Happened Today Changed Anything

    by Leon Wolf

     

     

    It looks like Trump has swept the Northeast, as he was absolutely expected to do. Almost all of the voting simulations that have happened to date predicted that Trump would get all or nearly all of the delegates today. Save your freakout for another day.

     

    It looks like some of the states, Trump will win by bigger margins than expected. Big deal. Cruz has done that plenty this election cycle, and no one treated that like the end of the world in Trump land.

     

    This election, going forward, is still about Indiana and California. Cruz has to win in Indiana next Tuesday in order for the race to stay static. If Trump wins, the math becomes much more difficult for the anti-Trump forces. If you are a John Kasich supporter and you live in Indiana, voting for Kasich next Tuesday is the dumbest thing you could possibly do because it will just help ensure that Kasich will never see the contested convention that he needs.

     

    Even if Trump wins Indiana, he can still be prevented from reaching 1,237, but only if Kasich quits pretty much immediately, and definitely before California.

     

    That was the calculus when we woke up this morning, and it remains so today.

     

    Anyone who is telling you differently is doing so out of one of two motivations. If they are media, they are doing so because their pecuniary interest demands it. Trump is good for ratings and the media wants to have him around for another six months.

     

    If they are a conservative, it is because conservatives are prone to despair and dismay. It's more or less our default setting sometimes. Conservatives have gotten so used to losing that it feels like it's in our DNA.

     

    As for me, I'm holding my despair, or even my dismay, for at least one more week. It is zero surprise to me that the diseased and defunct remnants of the GOP in the Northeast would support a corrupt huckster like Trump, and it holds zero real relevance to what is going to happen going forward.
