    A O-C is my new hero. Sadly, @MARIS61 is too blinded by his own rhetoric that she is the savior of the party, and probably planet.

    She is not right in the head.

    I find it alarming that she was allowed to serve drinks to people.

    Get informed, then post.

    She lied to America, and was caught red handed.

    Totally.

    Trump played her like the kazoo she is.

    She’s now exposed as an absurdity and a corrupt loser pursuing a personal hatred of the POTUS.

    Now when he gives the SOTU it will be an historic victory speech detailing how he overcame the Dems treasonous attempts to weaken our country.

    2020 is in the bag.

    McCarthy blasts Pelosi for giving House '3-day weekend' amid government shutdown

    By Brooke Singman | Fox News

    Pelosi gives House members a three-day weekend, no deal to end government shutdown on the table!

    California Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy says that as federal employees are set to miss their second paycheck, Nancy Pelosi is sending House members home instead of working on legislation to end the partial government shutdown.

    House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy on Thursday blasted Speaker Nancy Pelosi for canceling a Friday session of Congress and giving members a “three-day weekend,” after yet another failed attempt on Capitol Hill to pass bipartisan legislation to re-open the government amid the longest shutdown in U.S. history.

    Friday will mark the 35th day of the partial government shutdown and the second missed paycheck for more than 800,000 federal workers and contractors working, or furloughed, without pay.

    “People are going into their second week of not getting their paycheck,” McCarthy said on Fox News' “The Daily Briefing” on Thursday. “Speaker Pelosi just gave the members of Congress a three-day weekend and canceled Friday, instead of staying here and solving the problem.”

    McCarthy, instead, said he was “asking that all leaders come together” on Friday and “not leave” until they reach a bipartisan agreement on a spending package to re-open the government.

    “Speaker Pelosi is a very strong leader—she holds her members back and forces them to do things they don’t want to do,” he said. “She just gave a three-day weekend, while 800,000 federal workers are missing their second paychecks.”

    Over the weekend, the president announced a potential compromise package. Trump said he was prepared to back a three-year extension of protections for 700,000 immigrants who came to the country illegally as children and were shielded from deportation under the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. This, in exchange for his requested $5.7 billion for a barrier on the U.S.-Mexico border.

    Democrats, though, largely opposed the plan. Dueling Senate bills, one of which represented Trump's compromise offer, failed Thursday on procedural votes, sending lawmakers back to the drawing board on a potential resolution.

    "I know some people call her 'Fancy Nancy' -- these days, I think a better nickname is 'Dr. No,'" White House adviser Kellyanne Conway told Fox News on Thursday, referring to Pelosi. "Just keep hearing 'no' -- just 'no no no' all the time - you can't just stomp your feet and say, 'Harrumph.'"

    Meanwhile, Texas House Rep. Dan Crenshaw noted on "Fox & Friends" that Pelosi and Democratic leaders are actively blocking Republican efforts to ensure that federal workers are paid.

    “This is a very little known fact but it’s very important," Crenshaw said. "Over the last week, we voted twice on a motion to recommit, which would send an appropriations bill back to committee, in order to pay federal workers.

    Now this is separate from the bipartisan plan to give them backpay. That’s separate. This is two other bills that would actually pay them in real time.

    This would actually pay them right now."

    If Democrats' "priority is really federal workers," Crenshaw said, "then let’s actually pay them so that they can’t be used as pawns."

    She's offered the same deal that the Senate, the House and the public all prefer. So, what's the holdup? Trump, that's what.

    Rep. Ilhan Omar facing new scrutiny over past effort to win leniency for 9 men accused of trying to join ISIS
    By Lukas Mikelionis | Fox News

    Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar is appointed to the House Foreign Affairs committee despite anti-Israel remarks
    Former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer weighs in on Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s decision to place Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar on the House Foreign Affairs committee.

    Embattled congressional freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., once asked a judge to show leniency toward a group of Minnesota men accused of trying to join the Islamic State terror group.

    The nine Minnesota men were facing decades in prison after being accused in 2015 of making plans, including buying fake passports, in an effort to travel to Syria and fight for ISIS, which was at its peak level of activity and held territory in Syria and Iraq.

    REP. ILHAN OMAR FACES BACKLASH AFTER CLAIMING TRUMP IS BACKING ‘COUP’ IN VENEZUELA

    Omar, who was then a Minnesota state representative, was part of a group that sent letters to Judge Michael Davis urging him to give shorter sentences, arguing that harsher penalties would only lead to more people joining the terror group.

    “Incarcerating 20-year-old men for 30 or 40 years is essentially a life sentence. Society will have no expectations of the to-be 50- or 60-year-old released prisoners; it will view them with distrust and revulsion,” read Omar’s letter to the judge, as obtained by FOX 9 of Minneapolis-St. Paul.

    “Such punitive measures not only lack efficacy, they inevitably create an environment in which extremism can flourish, aligning with the presupposition of terrorist recruitment,” she added.

    [​IMG]Video
    Omar’s letter seeking more lenient sentences resurfaced on social media amid criticism over her attack on Sen. Lindsey Graham, Covington Catholic High School students, and the endorsement of socialist Venezuelan dictatorship.

    REP. ILHAN OMAR DELETES TWEET ATTACKING COVINGTON STUDENTS, AFTER BACKLASH

    One of the men in particular, Abdirahman Yasin Daud, was facing over 30 years in prison for trying to join the terrorist group. He admitted in court that he wasn’t trying to enter Syria on humanitarian grounds, but rather to participate in the activities of ISIS.

    “I was not going there to pass out medical kits or food. I was going strictly to fight and kill on behalf of the Islamic State.”

    — Abdirahman Yasin Daud


    But Omar told the judge that the best way counter extremism was with empathy rather than punishment.

    “A long-term prison sentence for one who chose violence to combat direct marginalization is a statement that our justice system misunderstands the guilty. A restorative approach to justice assesses the lure of criminality and addresses it.”

    According to media reports, almost all the men on trial received lengthy sentences, with Daud serving 30 years in prison after he was found guilty of trying to provide material support to ISIS and conspiring to commit murder overseas.

    The Associated Press contributed to this report.

    She's a typical Islamist, whatever that means. Maybe it means she is a Muslim. Ooh, a dirty word.
    Anyhow, she's famous for supporting radical terrorists who just want to blow things up and kill Americans. I mean, you can easily tell. Just look at her skin color. Now, look at her head scarf. It's as if she had a bright neon sign saying I am a terrorist and I am a Muslim bringing crime, disease and drugs into the U.S.A.
