Democrats love to play word games: calling the FBI investigation of classified emails on Clinton's home server a "matter" "Loretta Lynch"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2017
Trump was legally empowered to replace Comey, with or without reason. Trump just didn't have the self-discipline to shut up about it.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2017

(Reason). "I think after this tax, my store is going to be closed," one business owner told the city council before it passed the soda tax that will add $2.52 in taxes to the typical 12-pack.
Obviously the 1% must purchase their "fair share" of soda... How soon before we see consumers making soda runs to the suburbs or see guys selling cans from coolers in their trucks?
(National Review). For a second time, the courts are in the wrong.
The Constitution does NOT deny the unalienable right to migrate, you BIg Government whores!
(National Review). Illegal immigration is not just a problem at our borders, it comes from all over the world. But, we are moving in the right direction:
