A blatantly bigoted lesbian-owned, vegan cafe in Melbourne, Australia charged an 18% “man tax.” The ‘Handsome Her’ cafe folded after less than two years in business.

The restaurant made headlines in 2017 when it announced rules giving preferred seating to its female customers and charging an 18% premium for men to “protest the gender pay gap.”

Men and women didn’t like it and they were pilloried by everyone. Their bigotry was based on an illogical gender penalty.

The owner hasn’t learned a thing from the experience. The ideologue who owns the place, Alex O’Brien, a feminist activist, said the backlash that her “man tax” caused underscores why lesbians must “dismantle the patriarchy.”

She claims they were making enough money and there were plenty of customers. O’Brien says she just doesn’t want to own a cafe any longer.

The soon-to-be former owner really seems to resent men and appears to live with paranoid rage over men.

Joke of the day (or is it)? —

Question: So exactly, how did that “18% ‘man tax” aka “protest the gender pay gap” aka war on the patriarchy go?

Answer: “Not well, we’re out of business.”

Third party and like every other business owned by Progressive useful idiots who put ideology first chimes in: “Me too.”

Trump Blasts FAILED Obamacare Repeal Vote Sunk by McCain.

There is simply no excuse other than to say that after seven years of lying to the American people about the repeal and replace of the failed Affordable Care Act, that for a legislative body refused to express and act on the will of the voter, it is business as usual.

Because of their disdain for President Trump which reflects their disdain for we, the People and the fact that their hearts until this day was never into repealing and replacing Obamacare, the so-called Skinny Bill. Republicans and their Marxist counterparts on the left failed the nation AGAIN.

So yeah, damned right, President Trump is angry, damned right and he is not alone.

Washington Free Beacon by David Rutz

Three Republicans and all 48 Democrats and Independents voted down the stripped-down repeal measure of Obamacare that some Republican senators didn’t even want to become law, but rather wanted to continue the legislative process to improve the bill. The unusual scene played out around 1:30 A.M. on Capitol Hill.

Trump had called via Twitter over recent weeks for Republicans to “step up to the plate” and keep their promise to repeal Obamacare, writing repeatedly that it was up to them to get it done.

After another setback to this agenda Friday, Trump wrote, “3 Republicans and 48 Democrats let the American people down. As I said from the beginning, let ObamaCare implode, then deal. Watch!”

Continue Reading

RINO Senators John McCain (R-AZ), Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) along with the comrades on the left did not disappoint when they voted NO.

Taking into account that Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell never intended to repeal Obamacare from the start, the decision to hold out until the return of McCain makes perfect sense. For the GOPe, last night was mission accomplished so now let’s move on.

Jonathan Gruber counting on “stupidity of the American voter” again.

Oh buddy.  Jonathan “the stupidity of the American voter” Gruber tried to blame President Trump on the failings of Obamacare during an exchange  this weekend on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace.

Wallace, of course, called Gruber out at which point Gruber tried to back up his statement by claiming that the President refused to honor Obamacare’s obligations to healthcare insurers.

In Gruber’s twisted mind that is the reason for healthcare insurers dropping out of the exchange.

Gruber didn’t count on, however, Karl Rove’s whiteboard (not that it or Rove was needed.)

Another case of Progressive revisionist history. All LIES.

Hospitals, doctors and healthcare insurers began dropping out of Obamacare as far back as 2013, four years before Donald Trump was elected.

The Five: Greg Gutfeld Vets the Progressives’ “Hysteria vs. facts.”

While I often find myself in disagreement with The Five’s Greg Gutfeld whose sometimes outlandish statements leave me cold (my take), on Tuesday Gutfeld got it right when he called out the ridiculousness of the fear mongering and hysteria from Progressives in the following 12-minute monologue (my take again).

In case you didn’t exactly pick up on what was going on there with Nancy Pelosi, below is a clip of the Progressives broken mic moments on the steps of the Supreme Court.

At 2:14 of the video, Pelosi who obviously has never done anything on her own, while someone else is adjusting the mic ask, “Should we sing ‘This land is your land’ again until they get the sound working?”  Progressives are embarrassing themselves.

“Look at that moon. A new moon.”

“Introduce the real people now.”

What the heck was that?

The above videos prove just how out of touch Pelosi and her underlings in Congress are along with their awareness that very few have bought into their dog and pony show which is nothing more than a cry for relevance and an effort to mainstay their power.

It is also proof that the Progressive establishment has been in office unchallenged by their constituents, with whom they are out of touch for so long that they actually believe that they possess a mandate to usurp the will of the voters, the Constitution of the United States and to delegitimize the 2016 presidential election.

Oops, I almost forgot another Pelosi hot mic moment that will follow the party of race baiters into the history books.

Pelosi was caught on mic encouraging Black Congressman, Rep. Andre Carson (D., Ind.) to say that he’s “a Muslim.” So, did he?  You betcha!

Watch as Pelosi introduces Carson as a Muslim and Carson proving yet again that Blacks are in the 21st century nothing more than slaves to the Democratic Party, like a good house slave followed his master’s direction.

[It would be quite interesting to hear what members of the Congressional Black Caucus are saying behind Missus Pelosi’s back.]

These people are in a zone of their own making and it is for that reason that every bureaucrat who stood on the steps of the U. S. Supreme Court with Nancy Pelosi are a threat to our national sovereignty, a threat to national security and a threat to our President.

Rant over.

Voters Rejecting Obama’s Hope & Change, Opt this Time Around for Trump

There is an article up at New York Times about Americans who are this presidential election voting for Donald Trump. Whether Democrat or Republican, what these voters all have in common is that in 2008 and 2012, they voted for Barack Obama and his promise of “hope and change.”

Each voter interviewed has a story to tell and whether it is the loss of a job brought about by Obama’s economic policies, draconian regulations, war on small businesses, the targeting of Americans, weakening our law enforcement and military, duping voters on the Affordable Care Act, his role in the racial division that has swept across the nation or backroom deals with special interests, all of which resulted in the American people being the loser, Obama has opened the eyes of some and disappointed many.

New York Times by Yamiche Alcindor

It didn’t take long for Jack Morris to regret voting for President Obama. A few months after Mr. Morris, a lifelong Republican, cast his first vote for a Democrat in 2008, he learned that the carpet company where he worked planned to lay off 36 people in Pennsylvania and move his job to Maryland….

Mr. Morris is one of a small subset of voters who supported Mr. Obama in 2008 and have now embraced Mr. Trump, attracted by his vow to shake up the political status quo and restore lost jobs. A CBS News poll conducted last month found that 7 percent of likely voters who supported Mr. Obama in 2012 now back Mr. Trump, a ray of hope for a candidate who remains behind in most polls and has alienated many centrist voters[…]

Read full article

In the article, Chuck Linton, age 69, a Black voter living in Baltimore, Maryland describes Barack Obama as condescending.

Linton, a retired military veteran, has like many other Black Americans are tired of Democrats telling him how to vote.

“Have you ever seen somebody that talks so good and makes you feel that he is in your favor, he’s in your corner, but the truth of the matter he’s not? That’s Obama.”

Debunking the attacks against Trump by Progressives for asking Black Americans, “what do you have to lose?”

Linton, familiar with the Black on Black homicides that plagues Black communities across America responded, “That’s a very good question…He’s absolutely right. We need to try something else.” A response not shared by the author of the article who saw fit how to mention how many “recoiled” from Trump’s “stance on racial justice.”

Americans are, this presidential election, rejecting all of the above and more of the same.
