Louisiana Republicans gain super majority status in State Senate-

Townhall-

“In Louisiana’s Saturday election, Republicans had a lot to cheer about.  Among statewide office-holders, the incumbent GOP Lieutenant Governor (68 percent), Attorney General (66 percent), Treasurer (60 percent, and Agricultural Commissioner (58 percent) were all re-elected without the need for a run-off, under the state’s ‘jungle primary’-style system.  It also appears that the solid Republican majorities in both state legislative chambers will remain intact — with the GOP expanding its Senate advantage into super-majority territory by picking up a pair of Democratic seats:”

But,it gets better-

“No amount of goalpost-moving from Team @JohnBelforLA or @DemGovs can disguise that this was a stunningly poor performance for JBE. Days ago they were confidently predicting he’d beat 50. He lost vote share across the board & didn’t even get a majority in his home parish.”  A plugged-in Louisiana GOP source tells me that the gubernatorial battle is now leans Republican, adding that “DJT coming down definitely got GOP votes out.”  The president certainly did visit ahead of the voting, and he didn’t do so quietly.  This is quite a sound-byte”

Pretty concise rundown of why we are not abandoning the Kurds.-

FontpageMag-

Long article that lays out the history of how we got where we are, but here is the money –

“The Kurds in Iraq are far more capable of defending themselves than the Kurds of Syria. Taking on the defense of Syria’s Kurds would commit the US to an open-ended presence in Syria and justify Turkish antagonism. America’s interests would not be advanced. They would be harmed, particularly in light of the YPG’s selling trait for Obama – its warm ties to Assad and Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps.”

So in a nutshell, why should we get involved in yet another open ended war to protect the YPG and the PPK when both are cozy with Iran? 

Update: Trump forces a third way,oh and ABC caught lying again.

Saw this review of the new Joker movie just out. I haven’t seen it myself as I seldom ever go to the movies. However I did find John Nolte’s review of it interesting-

Breitbart-

“Who are Joker’s mindless followers? Who are these maladjusted malcontents, these adult losers who live with their mothers; these uselessl idiots who exist in literal garbage and keep voting for the same politicians to run their Gotham City…? Who are these crybabies who worship a murderer, these nihilists who hold RESIST signs, who scream KILL THE RICH!, who hate cops, who “don’t believe in anything,” who think something’s wrong with society because they’re not “happy all the time”? Who covers their faces with masks so they can riot and go wilding under the pretense this criminal and cowardly behavior is an act of virtue…?

“If that is not enough of a red pill moment, there’s the gun, or… The Gun.

Joker doesn’t get his hands on The Gun due to lax gun control laws. The Gun comes to him illegally. The Gun empowers a dangerously mentally ill individual who is not getting the mental health help he requires because he lives in an urban nightmare run by incompetent urban politicians.”
