US delegation chased out of Bethlehem:
'You are not welcome anymore'
by Loveday Morris
{ jewishworldreview.com } ~ Angry protesters chased a group of U.S. diplomats out of the Palestinian town of Bethlehem on Tuesday... amid frustration over President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. "You are not welcome anymore!" shouted one of the demonstrators as they broke into a training session organized by the U.S. Consulate in Jerusalem and held at Bethlehem's chamber of commerce and industry, video posted online showed. The event aimed to educate local businesses on the benefits of social media, and an American expert had been scheduled to speak. "America = ISIS = Terror" read one sign held by a protester, with a picture of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. "You are not welcome anymore!" one shouted. The men pelted the U.S. delegation's car with tomatoes as it drove off, and broke off a wing mirror... http://www.jewishworldreview.com/0118/chased_out_of_bethlehem.php3.
Democracy Dies in Dismal Retirement Plans
by Bill McMorris
{ freebeacon.com } ~ The world's richest man has drawn the ire of Washington Post workers who are displeased with union contract negotiations... On Tuesday, the Washington Post Guild, a member of the Washington-Baltimore News Guild, went public with its dissatisfaction with the newspaper's contract offers after several months of negotiation. The union fumed after the newspaper offered its reporters an average raise of $520 per year and refused to increase its current retirement contribution match of 1 percent of employee salary even as it asked for severe cuts in severance pay and layoff procedures. "We have been surprised and unsettled by the Post’s stance since bargaining began in May. The company has refused to negotiate at all over things that are of importance to us, such as improving our retirement benefits or increasing paid parental leave, while demanding significant concessions from us," union spokesman and Post transportation writer Fredrick Kunkle said in an email... http://freebeacon.com/issues/democracy-dies-dismal-retirement-plans/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=cca9a725fe-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_01_30&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-cca9a725fe-45611665 .

Partner with Rabid Islamists
by Steven Emerson
{ jewishworldreview.com } ~ Why are Google and YouTube sponsoring a day-long symposium featuring a roster of speakers including known Islamist anti-Semites... as well as known militant Islamists who are long time Israel bashers and Hamas supporters? And why are Google and YouTube providing a forum for Islamists who approve of Sharia-imposed "death by stoning?" This Wednesday's online conference by the British-based Imams Online features a rogues' gallery of Islamists and virulently anti-Semitic, anti-Israel speakers and it's all being done "in official partnership with Google and YouTube. One of the conference's three primary goals is "Tackling Rising Islamophobia and the Far Right Threat."... http://jewishworldreview.com/0118/google_jihad.php3 .

Can the Gang of Eight Nostalgia
by JONATHAN S. TOBIN
Since the end of his disastrous 2016 presidential run Jeb Bush hasn’t been getting much attention from the media. So there Bush was recently, criticizing Senator Marco Rubio... for his low profile in the immigration debate. Bush’s attack on Rubio for abandoning his 2013 stance in favor of a comprehensive reform package that would have provided a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants proved something conservatives have long known: To the mainstream media, bipartisanship means Republicans coming around to Democratic positions. But that still leaves us with the question of how to define leadership. According to Bush, it should require Rubio to stick to his previous position even if the political landscape has been completely altered over the past five years. Displaying some of the rancor that still lingers from the 2016 race in which the two men effectively sabotaged each other’s chances of winning the Republican presidential nomination, Bush mocked Rubio: “God forbid you actually took on something that was controversial and paid a political price.” That sounds good to critics of the Republicans who believe their stance against amnesty and demands for border security and the wall President Trump has demanded are inherently unreasonable. From their point of view, anything short of Rubio choosing to go down with the Gang of Eight ship that sank five years ago is evidence of cowardice... http://www.nationalreview.com/article/455953/gang-of-eight-immigration-bill-no-basis-daca-deal?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=NR%20Daily%20Monday%20through%20Friday%202018-01-31&utm_term=NR5PM%20Actives.

SOTU: WE Make America Great Again
by Thomas Gallatin: “Over the last year, we have made incredible progress and achieved extraordinary success,” President Donald Trump stated early in his State of the Union address last night. “We have faced challenges we expected, and others we never have imagined. We have shared in the heights of victory and the pains of hardship. We endured floods and fires and storms. But through it all, we have seen the beauty of America’s soul, and the steel in America’s spine.” The president maintained this unified theme throughout his speech, which was more impressive than his speech last year to Congress. He used the pronouns “we” 129 times and “our” 104 times, while referencing “I” only 29 times — that’s essentially the opposite of what Barack liar-nObama practiced — and the unifying optimism was palpable. Trump’s speech was also well received by the American public, with a CBS News poll showing an approval rating of 75% among viewers. However, congressional Democrats were clearly having none of it. While historically Republicans don’t stand and applaud statist policies and Democrats don’t stand and applaud free enterprise and individual liberty policies, generally both will stand and applaud clearly bipartisan issues such as good employment numbers and a growing economy. But it appears that Trump Derangement Syndrome has so infected congressional Democrats that it precludes them from even acknowledging objectively good news. They simply sat on their hands and pouted like little children who didn’t get their own way.
Our Mark Alexander will have more analysis on Trump’s speech later, but a quick observation to note here. The contrast between Democrats and their extreme anti-Trump crusade versus Trump’s sensible, inclusive, positive and pro-America agenda is striking. One wonders if the non-stop rabid partisanship among Democrats and their Leftmedia sycophants — the relentless #Resist campaign against peace and prosperity — is wearing thin on average Americans, especially since Trump’s and Republicans’ accomplishments are proving to benefit the vast majority of the American working class. Trump’s America First realism versus the Democrats’ hard-leftist and globalist ideology may only drive working class Democrat voters toward Trump. Democrats, by being so blindly committed to resisting Trump, are unwittingly alienating what used to be their base. As Ronald Reagan did in the 1980s, Trump is successfully appealing to working-class Democrat voters whose party has left them behind to join him in making America great again. Last night’s speech was just another example of why so many Americans voted for Trump. ~The Patriot Post
