rino-Flake, rino-McCain Call Trump's 
Performance 'Disgraceful' and 'Shameful'
{ rickwells.us } ~ Key members of Congress, including some Republicans, criticized President Donald Trump’s performance... at a press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin as “bizarre,” ”shameful” and a “missed opportunity” to stand up to Russia. Some of the harshest words came from Arizona Senators rino-John McCain and rino-Jeff Flake. “Today’s press conference in Helsinki was one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory,” rino-McCain said in a news release. “The damage inflicted by President Trump’s naiveté, egotism, false equivalence, and sympathy for autocrats is difficult to calculate. But it is clear that the summit in Helsinki was a tragic mistake.” “I never thought I would see the day when our American President would stand on the stage with the Russian President and place blame on the United States for Russian aggression,” rino-Flake said on Twitter. “This is shameful.” rino-McCain wasn’t done though...They both don't recall what liar-nObama said in the meeting with Putin and world tour where he blamed America  and they didn't say anything about that meeting or tour. They both shouldn't be senators.   https://rickwells.us/flake-mccain-trump-performance/

Robert Mueller Is Still Targeting Trump

{ eaglerising.com } ~ While Robert Mueller has only charged Russians, he is obviously still going after Trump’s team... Robert Mueller has indicted only Russians so far. Alan Dershowitz and others have pointed out that the DOJ could have done this without a special prosecutor. But just because Robert Mueller has not indicted any American for colluding with the Russians doesn’t mean he’s not going to do so. And he still might fabricate an obstruction charge. Dershowitz also points out that no verdict has been proven yet. By rushing to agree with the indictments that Robert Mueller has made, Republicans might be setting themselves up for the day he indicts a member of Team Trump for colluding with those Russians...

{ nationalreview.com } ~ The Justice Department on Monday announced charges against a Russian national for conspiring to further Russia’s interests in the U.S... Russian citizen Mariia Butina, 29, was arrested on Sunday in Washington, D.C. and charged with “conspiracy to act as an agent of the Russian Federation within the United States without prior notification to the Attorney General,” the Justice Department said in a statement. She appeared in court there on Monday. Butina worked from 2015 to 2017 for a “high-level official in the Russian government” who then became a top executive at the Russian Central Bank, authorities said. The Russian official, whom news reports have identified as Aleksandr Torshin, conspired with Butina to “develop relationships with U.S. persons and infiltrate organizations having influence in American politics, for the purpose of advancing the interests of the Russian Federation,” according to the charges. Torshin and Butina had both fostered relationships with American gun-rights groups. Torshin, who was among a number of Russians hit with sanctions by the Treasury Department in April, is known to have run into Donald Trump Jr. at the 2016 National Rifle Association convention in Kentucky. Butina was also heavily involved with the NRA and started a Russian gun-rights group called Right to Bear Arms...

Mamet’s Girl Personified: “A Brain-Dead Liberal”,

{ theconservativetreehouse.com } ~ Almost exactly a decade ago, David Mamet wrote a rather controversial op-ed for the Village Voice titled: “Why I am No Longer a Brain-Dead Liberal“... A few years later Mamet followed up with an excellent book titled: “The Secret Knowledge“. After a life amid a tribe of toxic liberalism, Mamet began to choke on the inherent hypocrisy of it all.  He began to point out that hypocrisy, causing his tribe to go bananas and dispatch him as if he were spreading Ebola. Later in his evolution he connected the hypocritical dots to the natural outcomes.  Here is the 2018 version of what he describes:.

Standing Against the Rainbow Mafia's Speech-Squelching Agenda

by Arnold Ahlert:  A funny thing happened on the way to another progressive effort, led by the Rainbow Mafia, to restrict Americans’ freedom: Republican Gov. Paul LePage of Maine “just said no.” He vetoed a bill that would have banned state therapists from working with individuals troubled by feelings of same-sex attraction or the idea that their gender identity and chromosomal reality are a mismatched set — a.k.a. gender dysphoria.

             LePage’s reasons for doing so couldn’t be clearer. “This [bill] is so broad that licensed professionals would be prohibited from counseling an individual even at the individual’s own request,” he wrote. “We should not prohibit professionals from counseling an individual even at the individual’s own request. We should not prohibit professionals from providing their expertise to those who seek it for their own personal and basic questions such as, ‘How do I deal with these feelings I am experiencing?’”
               He also struck a blow for religious freedom and parental rights. “Parents have the right to seek counsel and treatment for their children from professionals who do not oppose the parents’ own religious beliefs,” he added. “Because the standard of practice for these professionals already prohibits any practice or therapy that would amount to physical or mental abuse, what we are really trying to regulate are the private, consultative conversations between a licensed provider and a client.
               Anyone remember which side of the political divide champions the right to privacy, to the point of indulging in hysterical paroxysms with regard to the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh and the thought that Roe v. Wade might be overturned? That particular right to privacy has precipitated more than 60 million abortions since 1973, making a complete mockery of liar-Bill Clinton’s 1996 assertion that the dummycrats-Democrat Party’s policy stance on abortion was that it should be “safe, legal and rare.
               The Rainbow Mafia and its allies in the media and   dummycrats-Democrat Party denigrate any conversation between a therapist and a patient that attempts to address an individual’s own concerns with homosexuality and transgenderism as “conversion therapy.” And while a UCLA study revealed that historical concerns about some of the techniques employed in conversion therapy that began as early as the 1890s are legitimate, LePage made it clear he isn’t endorsing anything that could be construed as abusive. “At no time should such treatment take the form of mental or physical abuse,” he wrote, “and such treatment should always be subject to the statutory requirements of the standard of care for that profession.
               The same study reveals that nine states — California, Connecticut, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island and Vermont — as well as the District of Columbia currently ban conversion therapy. Therapists in those states who employ the practice can be disciplined for doing so. Yet even those states can’t ignore the First Amendment: The laws generally don’t apply to religious or spiritual leaders acting in a religious capacity, provided they are not paid for their services.
               The study further notes that opinion polls show a substantial majority of Americans in Florida, Virginia and New Mexico have supported a ban on conversion therapy, and that members of Congress have introduced a bill, The Therapeutic Fraud Prevention Act of 2017, aimed at classifying conversion therapy provided for a fee as consumer fraud.
               No doubt it’s indelicate to ask, but who’s attempting to convert whom? Perhaps polls should be taken to find out whether Americans are on board with state-sanctioned ruination of religious Americans’ livelihoods for failing to embrace the homosexual agenda, or teaching the transgender agenda at the kindergarten level in public schools to children — often with no opt-out choice  given to parents who don’t want their children indoctrinated with “LGBTQ” propaganda.
               Maybe Americans should be asked if they were okay with an liar-nObama administration that mandated the imposition of the transgender agenda absent any input from Congress. Using Title IX of the 1964 Civil Rights Act as their vehicle, liar-nObama & Co. threatened to initiate lawsuits, and withhold federal education funds from states that did not give students claiming to be members of the opposite sex access to bathrooms and lockers rooms of their choice. Other entities followed suit, ultimately leading to a 2015 law in Oregon that provides Medicaid coverage for the gamut of transgender treatments, including surgery — regardless of age.
               The ultimate abrogation of parental rights regarding this  particular type of “conversion therapy”? In Oregon, patients as young as 15 are not required to get parental consent for it. In other words, children can decide on their own to get life-altering vaginoplasties and double mastectomies — but psychotherapy advising them that such drastic measures might not be a good idea is forbidden.
               Matt Moonen, executive director of Equality Maine,  insists  LePage is wrong. “Studies show that this actually causes harm to minors who are subjected to this so-called treatment so this sends a pretty terrible message from the governor to LGBT kids across the state,” he stated.
               Here’s a message for kids across the state: Extensive data  collated in 2016 by Dr. James Cantor revealed that 60-90% of children who believe they are transgender change their minds when they reach adulthood. Here’s another message: These children attempt suicide at a rate 20 times higher than their peers.
               But psychotherapy that might address these realities should be banned?
               LePage pointed out that Maine’s legislature, which failed to override his veto, has a decidedly curious outlook with regard to human rights. Led by dummycrats-Democrats last April, they  voted against a bill that would have criminalized female genital mutilation (FGM) — as in the partial or total removal of the external female genitalia for cultural, rather than medical, reasons. “What we should not be doing is counting potential victims at-risk by counting the number of Somali, Egyptian and Gideon females in immigrant families in Maine. Not unless we are willing to face the racism in that calculation and the racism and misogyny entrenched in so many of us,” declareddummycrats-Democrat State Rep. Charlotte Warren at the time.
               How about facing the calculation that progressives will abide barbaric traditions utterly inimical to American values under the rubric of supporting multiculturalism and diversity?
               LePage sees the irony in the legislature’s priorities. Yet irony is the wrong word, and California’s legislature reveals why. While Maine legislators would like to see certain conversations banned, California legislators passed a law in 2015 compelling  conversations: Pro-life medical clinics were ordered to supply abortion literature to their clients. That law was just overturned (5-4) by the Supreme Court, which viewed the mandate as a violation of free speech.
               How can two different state legislatures reach diametrically opposed ideas regarding free speech? Because protecting it comes in a distant second to serving the progressive agenda. And if it takes diametrically opposed and thoroughly misguided positions on the First Amendment to “win by any means necessary,” so be it.
               Gov. Paul LePage is one governor who won’t be intimidated by the Rainbow Mafia — at least this time. Here’s hoping there are others.
