<<<Here's why he was charged with contempt: His deputies continued to arrest and deliver undocumented immigrants to federal authorities when there were no state charges against them, long after a local Judge named Snow banned the practice. Yet illegal immigrants are already in violation of federal law simply being illegal immigrants — except in the Obama/Holder world of "let's not uphold that law." So there you go. Arpaio was charged with criminal contempt for attempting to uphold federal immigration law. And that means the good guy was arrested for arresting the bad guys. You do see the irony there?<<<laugh

<<<Arpaio got in trouble for disobeying a court lower court ruling that was politically motivated ruling, which did get over turned. Therefore, the ruling he violated was not correct. What he was doing, following a state law meant to bolster federal immigration law, was indeed lawful.

If the administration at the time had been enforcing federal immigration laws, none of this would have ever happened. The Feds encouraged illegal behavior, the state enacted and enforced a law (via a county sheriff) to counteract the illegal behavior, the feds said the state law was illegal, the state has no right to enforce a law if the feds choose to ignore it, the Sheriff ignored the Feds, the Feds convicted the Sheriff, the illegal law turns out to be legal, the Sheriff gets pardoned by an administration pledging to enforce federal immigration law so that the illegals do not exist in the first place. His case could have been a very interesting precedent for the sanctuary cities, perhaps it still is.<<<<<<

In other words,Arpaio and the State of Arizona put a Crimp into the "Sanctuary-Doctrine" of the Obama ADMIN,thus the Witch-hunt against Arpaio!

- Winston Churchill

Sell the statues. They will be private property and the owners can decide what to do with them; that ends the argument of tax money maintaining the monuments and statues.(with the Caveat not to destroy them)

As I said the other day in another thread, in the UK the activists are now saying they want Nelsons column in trafalgar square taken down due to his use of slavery.
You can tare down every statue, monument, government building, every road sign and remove every piece of literature but you will never change history. If they want to live like that then go live with fat boy in nk!


I agree with you mike, yet there is some process and some one who decides what is 'worthy' of a statue, why not decisions about which statues are no longer 'worthy'?



I can't see how a statue can become "unworthy "msharmony? History hasn't changed has it? Maybe these people should be looking closer to home and get that sorted before worrying about a statue!



easy, just choose the opposite of whatever made it 'worthy'

if there is a statue of a black person erected during the time of slavery,, should it remain there indefinitely? even after a general concensus is reached that hanging black people is not admirable anymore?


there are plenty of issues to be dealt with, and enough people to deal with more than one issue,, simultaneously

Or maybe all this is being thrown out there to distract you from what else is happening?
yep,Pay no Mind to the man behind the Curtain!

I doubt he would resign, would hate to be historically known as the only 'quitter'


but Im not sure what him congratulating Bannon has to do with whether he will resign


very logical points MS harmony - I'm hoping that Trump will resign - I read that his ghost rider for his book "The Art of the Deal" thinks that the whole Russia thing is bigger than anyone thinks and that he'll
resign rather than go to prison. One can only hope...

he "thinks",hmmm?
Back to the Russians now again,since Charlotteville has petered out?

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/450700/espn-marvel-missouri-university-they-all-turned-left-and-hit-rocks

We watch well-established institutions veer to the left, then crash and burn. Consider the state of three longstanding, once (and arguably still) powerful institutions: the University of Missouri, the sports cable channel ESPN, and Marvel Comics. As our former colleague Jillian Kay Melchior detailed earlier this week, the University of Missouri is paying a hefty price for becoming the face of angry leftist protests in 2015. Students claimed the administration was ignoring racial bigotry and more or less took over campus, forcing the resignation of the university system’s president and the campus’s chancellor.

Demonstrators tried to block the news media from protest sites, and Melissa Click, a communications professor, epitomized thuggish leftism when she was caught on video calling for “some muscle” to oust a student recording events. Unsurprisingly, when an institution becomes the national face of surrender to ideological extremists, students lose interest in attending and alumni don’t want to donate. Freshmen enrollment is down 35 percent since the protests, and the university begins this year with the smallest incoming class since 1999. The campus has taken seven dormitories out of service, laid off 100 people, and eliminated 300 more positions through retirement and attrition. Perceptions of a leftist takeover aren’t the university’s only problem; the athletic teams have been terrible, and every school struggles to maintain funding, solicit donations from alumni, and so on. But the decision to capitulate and submit to angry protesters appears to have done lasting damage to the institution.


Across the country, on ESPN’s campus in Bristol, Conn., the long winning streak of the “worldwide leader in sports” has come to a crashing end. After nearly three decades of ever-growing ratings, new channels, Web dominance, and viewer enthusiasm, the Disney-owned institution made a series of high-profile layoffs, from longtime correspondents to ex-player color commentators to a slew of SportsCenter anchors. Undoubtedly, the biggest financial factors were the network’s expensive purchases of broadcasting rights and consumers’ “cutting the cord” from traditional cable packages. But more than a few viewers pointed to the network’s relentless coverage of Michael Sam (an openly gay football player) and Colin Kaepernick (who famously knelt during the national anthem in protest), the prestigious award it gave to Caitlyn Jenner, and its firing of baseball analyst Curt Schilling over an offensive social-media post as evidence that the Disney-owned company had become increasingly overt in progressive political messaging, at the expense of its previous identity focused upon sports. Sports-media analyst Clay Travis put it bluntly: “Middle America wants to pop a beer and listen to sports talk, they don’t want to be lectured about why Caitlyn Jenner is a hero, Michael Sam is the new Jackie Robinson of sports, and Colin Kaepernick is the Rosa Parks of football. ESPN made the mistake of trying to make liberal social media losers happy and as a result lost millions of viewers.” Again, heavy-handed political messages are not ESPN’s lone problem; if the network had never dipped its toe into the realm of politics, broadcast rights would still be expensive and many consumers would still be cutting the cord. But annoying and alienating the demographic of conservative-leaning sports fans exacerbated their woes.

Meanwhile, another branch of the Disney entertainment empire, Marvel Comics, is enduring an incongruous problem. Films about Marvel’s superheroes dominate at the box office several times a year, but sales of the comic books have been increasingly disappointing since 2015, a slump that coincides with the publisher’s increasingly obvious effort to make its core characters diverse: Thor became a woman, African-American characters took over the mantles of Spider-Man and Captain America, and an African-American woman started wearing Iron Man’s armor. (It’s worth noting that Marvel always had racially diverse heroes, particularly in its team titles: Storm, Black Panther, War Machine, Falcon, Rictor, Sunfire, Jubilee, Cloak, Thunderbird, Snowbird, Shaman, Cheyanne . . . ) In March, Marvel vice president of sales David Gabriel offered an assessment of his company’s products that infuriated progressives. “What we heard was that people didn’t want any more diversity,” Gabriel said. “They didn’t want female characters out there. That’s what we heard, whether we believe that or not. I don’t know that that’s really true, but that’s what we saw in sales. We saw the sales of any character that was diverse, any character that was new, our female characters, anything that was not a core Marvel character, people were turning their nose up against.” Some industry analysts argue that this an oversimplification, as sales of non-“diverse” titles dropped as well. And all comic-book publishers face a big fundamental challenge: In a world of endless electronic media options, how do you get consumers to plunk down nearly four dollars for what is usually 22 pages of story and ten pages of ads? But it’s extremely difficult to make thrilling agitprop, and some fans argued the effort to include an explicitly political or ideological message interfered with Marvel’s bread and butter of exciting and dramatic stories. “The point of many of these books is not to tell interesting stories about new characters struggling to be superheroes, but to check off the ‘diversity’ and ‘inclusivity’ and ‘representation’ boxes on the progressive checklist,” one fan lamented. “As such, the characters are bland, flawless sock-puppets for their authors to rant about their progressive agendas. Whatever story that might exist gets lost in the need to virtue signal to the progressive readers who ironically do not buy the books.” They moved into preexisting, relatively apolitical institutions and steered the ship in a new direction, aligned with their political and social goals.

Notice that the progressive-minded revolutionaries in these three cases did not seek to found their own university in Missouri, their own cable sports network, or their own line of comic books. That would require a great deal of patience and effort and risk of failure.
They moved into preexisting, relatively apolitical institutions and steered the ship in a new direction, aligned with their political and social goals. And then they hit the rocks.
In this era of intense political and ideological divisions, it is right and fair to ask what the true purpose of any of these institutions is.

Do we want a university to prepare young people for the work force, to broaden their knowledge and impart some wisdom, or to ensure they are properly “awakened” to the need to enact the progressive agenda?
How much does the viewing audience want the shouting voices around the table on a sports network to resemble those on a cable-news network? And while every storyteller wants to make some statement about people and the world, can you make a political message fun, exciting, intriguing, or surprising in a world of superheroes?
Isn’t one of the core rules of drama that good heroes should have flaws to overcome, and villains can be charming or seductive, an approach that doesn’t lend itself easily to simple “this political philosophy is right” stories?
And shouldn’t progressives ask themselves why they’re so determined to use university campuses, cable sports networks, and comic books as the venues for their arguments?

Daily caller isn't exactly a valid unbiased source. The title of the article by itself should have caused you to realize that it was an anti everything attack piece.

If you want to prove me wrong, find a direct statement by Gore, where he said "global warming means the extinction of all things cold." If you can't find that, you can't support your accusation against him.

The covering of all the Coastal Cities with water definitely necessitates the extinction of "anything Cold"!bigsmile
