They cry over Trump’s executive order to enforce Obama’s immigration act from seven Muslim majority nations.
They scream that the ban is undermines “American values” and is “evil”.
Do we need to go over the numbers as to how many people of Muslim faith were killed in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and Libya? One million, five million?
“Fake Tears” Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi are anything but sympathetic toward Muslims.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi looked foolish trying to protest Trump’s executive order on immigration.
Microphone malfunctions, breaking out in song…it was weird and sad to see how low the Democrat party has sunk.
Pelosi continuously said to the crowds gathered on the steps of the Supreme Court…“Can you hear?”
The crowds could not hear anything, and so they resorted to singing “This Land Is Your Land”, and chanting “Lock him up!”
Pelosi at one point went totally off script talking about the “new moon.”

How the Democratic Party still decides its leaders (click to enlarge)by Gaius PubliusIn most of the developed world, the leaders of a political party are elected by the voters in that party, not party insiders. For example, in the U.K. in 2015, Jeremy Corbyn was elected leader of the Labour Party — not Prime Minister, party leader — with 59% of the vote.

Nobody Won the 2016 Election

Yesterday Kyle Kondik, Managing Editor of Sabato's Crystal Ball reported they're not seeing any evidence of the big swing towards the Democrats that Pelosi and her team are running around hyping.

These are your Democratic Party Fast Track villains in the Senate, at least the visible ones.

Before announcing for President in the Democratic Primaries, Bernie Sanders told the people he would not run as an Independent and be like Nader—invoking the politically-bigoted words “being a spoiler.” Well, the spoiled corporate Democrats in Congress and their consultants are mounting a “stop Bernie campaign.” They believe he’ll “spoil” their election prospects.

The famous "Yes We Can" theme, just before its conversion to "No I Won't." Why is this painful to watch? Six years of broken promises and a party-wide TPP cave by its leaders have rebranded Democrats for a generation. by Gaius PubliusTPP and Fast Track may be closing down the show and heading home. We may (or may not) know its fate very soon.

FRIDAY AFTERNOON UPDATE:Fast Track fizzles in the HouseAs you recall, the way the thing was structured, with the House having to pass exactly the same bill the Senate did in order to get it onto the president's desk, a snag in any piece of the legislative puzzle meant the whole thing falls apart, at least for now. And as the NY Times's Jonathan Weisman wrote this afternoon:
