Ok before you get bent out of shape about his 'article' - it is not fake news, it is from a satirical website... and I do think it is funny. The problem with news today is that it is difficult to know for sure what is real what is fake and what is satire.

Warren Returns To Tribe In Shame After Failing To Take Land Back From The Pale Faces

March 5th, 2020

.

.

CHEROKEE NATION—Having dropped out of the presidential race, Elizabeth Warren rode in solitude back to her reservation, having failed to take the land back from the pale faces.

"I am sorry, my people. I have failed," she said somberly, a single tear rolling down her cheek. "The white man still holds our land, and the very trees cry out against them. May Great Spirit grant us another chance in 4 harvests." The Cherokee people looked confused, so she clarified: "That means years according to the Indian talk book I picked up."

The Cherokee expressed mixed emotions at seeing Warren return, from "Who are you?" to "How many times do we have to tell you that if you're not gonna play some slots at the casino, then you're gonna need to leave?"

Warren nodded, accepting her banishment from her once-great place among the Cherokee people. "I accept my punishment and vow never to return until the sun once again never sets on the Cherokee Nation. As I depart, let me simply ask you if you have ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon? Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grins?"

"Wait, now you're just quoting Pocahontas," one tribal security guard said. "Alright, lady, let's go. The buffet is having crab legs tonight but other than that you're gonna have to scram."

At publishing time, Warren had sought advice from Grandmother Willow as to who it is that she should endorse.

Brian Williams, NYT's Gay criticized over math flub: 'Saddest clip in TV history'

BY JOE CONCHA - 03/06/20 10:33 AM EST

MSNBC's Brian Williams was mocked over math on social media after quoting a tweet claiming that former 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg "could have given each American $1 million and still have money left over" during an interview with New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay. 

The blowback comes two days after Bloomberg dropped out of the 2020 presidential race. The billionaire had a dismal Super Tuesday showing that registered no wins in any of the 14 Super Tuesday states — although he did capture some delegates in the U.S. territory of American Samoa — despite spending more than $500 million on the race after jumping in last November.

“Bloomberg spent $500 million on ads. The U.S. population is 327 million. He could have given each American $1 million and still have money left over, I feel like a $1 million check would be life-changing for people. Yet he wasted it all on ads and STILL LOST," Williams said in quoting a tweet by journalist Mekita Rivas.

“It’s an incredible way of putting it,” Williams concluded.

“It’s an incredible way of putting it. It’s true,” Gay added. “It’s disturbing.”

The U.S. population is currently 327 million people, which if evenly divided by $500 million comes to $1.53 per person.

The hashtag "BrianWilliams" quickly trended on Twitter Thursday night after the flub. 

I weighed myself on Saturday morning...266.3 lbs
I am still eating good (that is, well) but if I am going to lose weight - still have to cut down calories.  


IT MIGHT BE TIME TO CONTACT YOUR UNIVERSITY THAT YOU GRADUATED FROM AND ASK FOR A REFUND.... YOU ARE A DOPE!

Mara Gay

Mara Gay is a member of the New York Times editorial board, focusing on New York State and local affairs. Before coming to The Times in 2018, she was a City Hall reporter at The Wall Street Journal, covering Mayors Bill de Blasio and Michael Bloomberg, and dozens of other stories that have shaped the nation’s largest, most dynamic city. Ms. Gay has also worked for the New York Daily News, The Atlantic and The Daily, an all-digital newspaper owned by News Corp. She has a degree in political science from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, is a New York City native and lives in Brooklyn.

AND YOU MR. BRIAN WILLIAMS....

You have already been shamed for being a LIAR.

Of course, lying is not enough to get you fired from MSNBC - that's what they do.
Lying on MSNBC is an actual prerequisite to 'success' on that network.

But even you managed to disgrace yourself for being dishonest.

That is hard to do in the liberal left wacky dishonest disgusting news media....

Now you can add nincompoop to your resumé.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN

These days, the greatest enemy of the brainwashed leftists is the defeat of Bronze Statues in America.  Apparently (for the time being) President Abraham Lincoln is 'under the radar'. He does carry the 'original sin' of being a Republican, but even this 'character flaw' has proved insufficient to brand him a racist. I guess the fact that he freed the slaves is a tough one to ignore, even for the leftists that 'educate' our youth in American Universities. Lincoln was probably against gay marriage. Of course, back in the 'olden days,' for example, 10 years ago, there were not that many sane people who thought this was a good idea, or who even thought that it was a serious idea. Let me give an example of this. During the Presidential campaign of 2008, a whopping 9 years ago, the internationally famous confirmed homophobe, Barack Obama, was against gay marriage and unabashedly espoused his hateful rhetoric on national TV in front of millions of Americans. He explained that he came to this conclusion from his religious beliefs. Some people have claimed that he is some kind of secret Muslim, but he unabashedly explained that gay marriage was not accepted within the framework of his Christian religion. A couple of years later, his Vice-President, Joe Biden came out for gay marriage, and Barack Obama was able to quickly jettison his Christian values and hop onboard the gay marriage express. There was a name for this: evolution. It was said, at the time, that Barack Obama had 'evolved'. President Abraham Lincoln will never have the opportunity to evolve. One better enjoy his statues while they are still acceptable to the left. Abraham Lincoln's days are numbered. Lincoln was assassinated once before, he will likely be assassinated again. 

Abraham Lincoln Statue in Lincoln Park Chicago. So far, this statue has escaped the wrath of angry brainwashed mobs.

Seven miles was nice for a morning urban hike.
There was also time for an evening urban hike of six miles too.

DEMOCRATS ARE WINNING

Trump won the election, the war. Democrats have basically won the smaller battles ever since. They created this fake story that Russian interference and Russian collaboration with the Trump campaign was the reason that Hillary Clinton lost. This preposterous, false story has been the biggest (fake) news story for the past few months. Not a shred of evidence has ever been produced, but that matters not to the Democrats and the media. They are winning. One hopes that the President continues to fight. The next fight will be the daily sparring with the 'special prosecutor' just appointed yesterday afternoon. 

The fake news story that Putin secretly controls Trump is the basis for so much comedy these days.  Perhaps  the comedy would be funnier, if the story was even remotely true.

HILLARY LOSES (AGAIN)

One might wonder to what useful benefit to society an organization would organize a poll pitting Hillary Clinton against Donald Trump nearly 100 days into the Trump Administration. One can guess that the Washington Post was hopeful that the result would show that Hillary would now finally clobber Trump 'if the election were held today.' Woe to the pollsters, who surely are reveling in the somewhat low approval ratings for Donald Trump, still Princess Hillary would still lose. That's gotta sting!

Maybe it's time for the lefties of the land to heed this excellent advice.

Lefty loons are never satisfied losing an election. They, apparently, like to lose the same election over and over again. My example was the 2000 election between Al Gore and George Bush. That election was won by George Bush by a sliver of votes in Florida. Naturally the left contested the results in Florida, something to do with 'hanging chads' and spent countless hours and millions of dollars counting and re-counting the votes. They were successful in proving one thing. In every recount, Al Gore lost (again and again)

Wash Post poll hides: Trump still beats Clinton, 43%-40%
by Paul Bedard | Apr 23, 2017, 12:05 PM 

As reported by the Washington Examiner, a new Washington Post poll that declares President Trump as "the least popular president in modern times," waits until the second to last paragraph to reveal another tidbit: He'd still beat Hillary Rodham Clinton if the election were held today and in the popular vote, not just Electoral College.

The poll found that Trump's polls continue to be upside down, with a 42 percent approval and 53 percent disapproval.

Also unchanged: His base still likes him.

It's not until the second to last paragraph of the long story that it's shown Clinton would still lose to the president, despite the high disapproval ratings and problems with his first 100 days detailed by the paper. It reads:

The new survey finds 46 percent saying they voted for Clinton and 43 percent for Trump, similar to her two-point national vote margin. Asked how they would vote if the election were held today, 43 say they would support Trump and 40 percent say Clinton.

ABC's Jonathan Karl tweeted, "According to the ABC/WP poll, among 2016 voters, @realDonaldTrump would beat Hillary Clinton in a rematch — in the popular vote, no less."

CAMPAIGN PROMISES and SKEPTICISM

Does it seem to you that Trump has been in the White House for months already? It appears that he just might have been serious about most of his campaign promises. I still will never be convinced that Mexico will be paying for the wall, unless one calculates the cost savings to America that the additional security will provide. In that case, it is easy to make a case that the wall will pay for itself. When Trump promised to nominate a true conservative to the Supreme Court, there were many Republicans who simply did not believe him. I was skeptical. And hopeful. Apparently we will find out next week if this was yet another promise that will be kept. During the campaign, when Trump was spouting off about a myriad of issues and things he wanted to accomplish, I was skeptical because it largely seemed to good to be true. Each day my skepticism diminishes and I become a believer. We are still in the first week of this new administration. I wonder where we will be after the first month. These are interesting days in America.

DRAIN THE SWAMP

It is amazing to me that I am beginning today's blog with a snippet from a newspaper with virtually no credibility, The New York Times. This newspaper, over this past weekend, publicly promised its readers to 'self-reflect' after the election and re-dedicate itself to truth. (The implication being that truth was not a particularly important goal in their previous reporting.) I doubt that we will be seeing any changes from this left-leaning rag - leopards can't change their spots and tigers can't change their stripes.

Trump Wants to ‘Drain the Swamp,’ but Change Will Be Complex and Costly

WASHINGTON — After President-elect Donald J. Trump promised to “drain the swamp” that he sees in the nation’s capital, his millions of supporters are expecting vast changes in the sprawling federal bureaucracy, and conservative activists are drooling at the chance to remake, resize or reduce the reach of government.

Perhaps I was thinking about 'draining the swamp' when I just happened to pass this giant drain pipe while taking an urban hike in a Cincinnati suburb on Monday afternoon.

With Trump's promise to 'drain the swamp' in Washington, DC.... I decided to climb down into this giant drain that I passed last evening while hiking in a Cincinnati suburb.
