Second 'toon fits the HATE HILLARY theme!

Ambassador Stevens could not be reached for comment
Something has gone very, very wrong at Netflix. They recently made a deal with Barack and Michelle Obama to develop exclusive content for the streaming service. And now, they've made Susan Rice a member of their board of directors, owing to her "great expertise" with foreign policy.
This is a woman who lied her ass off about the Benghazi nightmare, and then went on to be instrumental in the "outing" of individuals who were caught up in the illegal surveillance of people surrounding Donald Trump. She doesn't even deserve a first class prison cell, let alone a high-paying job in which she can inject more of her lies into the nation's bloodstream.
We like Netflix, subscribe to Netflix and, thanks to a fortunate stock purchase, have Netflix to thank for the best part of our retirement funds.
But if they're going to keep up this nonsense, we'll have no problem dumping their service and sticking with the programming on Amazon Prime. Unless, of course, Amazon hires Hillary.
PAPAL BULLETIN
In a surprise announcement (to put it mildly), Pope Francis is alleged to have declared to a journalist that "there is no Hell," and that sinful souls actually just disappear. Perhaps with their soulful feet embedded in a wash tub of cement which is dropped to the bottom of the river Styx.
We should note that the Pope didn't say that last part, although we feel pretty solidly that it's implied.
The Vatican has subsequently released a statement suggesting that the Pope's remarks may have been misconstrued, as an official lack of eternal punishment in Hell might lead some folks (Progressives, for instance) to more fully indulge in their numerous bad habits.
Our take on this is that the Pope is simply aware that Easter and April Fool's Day fall on the same day this year (for the first time in 847 years), and he's making the most of it with a gag which people will have all eternity to laugh about...or regret.
In any case, we wish a sincere Happy Easter to the faithful among us...and encourage others not to use the Pope's pronouncement as an excuse to cause more Hell on Earth.

This she-devil deserves nothing less than a firing squad!
Now now, lets leave the innocent be....my motto is
Save the rhinos, get rid of the RINO's!
President Trump invited the Pope for lunch on his mega yacht.
The Pope accepted. Several boats with reporters, who are not allowed on the yacht, trailed along.
During lunch a puff of wind blew the Pontiff's hat off, right into the water. It floated off about 50 feet, then the wind died down and it just floated in place.
The crew and the Secret Service were scrambling to launch a boat to go get it, when Trump waved them off, saying, "Never mind boys, I'll get it."
Then Donald climbed over the side of the yacht, walked on the water to the hat, picked it up, walked back on the water, climbed into the yacht, and handed the Pope his hat.
The crew was speechless. The security team and the Pope's entourage were speechless. No one knew what to say, not even the Pope.
But that afternoon, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC reported: "TRUMP CAN'T SWIM"!
Bitter Hillary Clinton Trashes America’s Heartland, Calls States That Didnt Vote For Her “Backwards”
The poisoning of Sergei Skripal leads right to Hillary Clinton and the DNC
What did Skripal know about the Steele dossier?
by Alex Christoforou Alex Christoforou
March 10, 2018, 17:42
On Wednesday, The Telegraph revealed Col Sergei Skripal, the Russian double agent who was poisoned in Salisbury, England last weekend, is linked to dossier author Christopher Steele.
The Telegraph revealed that Sergei Skripal, the Russian “double agent” who was poisoned in Salisbury, England last week, has ties to Christopher Steele, the author of the infamous anti-Trump dossier and former British spy, who is tied to Fusion GPS, which is directly connected to the DNC and Hillary Clinton.
Click here for the best news on Russia >>
All of this begs the question, was Skripal the latest victim of the Clinton mafia’s murder machine?
The poisoning was carried out in a sloppy and amateurish fashion, and screams of a private contractor, knowing that the UK government (and blowhards like Boris Johnson) would immediately link this to a state (Russia) sponsored attack.
Skripal’s daughter Yulia lives in Russia…why would Russia wait until she went to the UK to poison her?
The Gateway Pundit correctly asks, “so who poisoned Sergei Skripal?”
Who had the most to gain from his assassination?
Russia has denied the poison attack:
Russia’s foreign minister expressed resentment at suggestions Moscow was behind the attack and said the Kremlin was “ready to consider” lending a hand in any investigation, “whether it’s [about] poisoning of some British subjects, whether it’s rumors about interference in the U.S. election campaign.”
Skripal worked for Deep State Christopher Steele’s group linked to the phony Russia dossier.
Steele worked for the Hillary Campaign and DNC in 2016 and joined Deep State officials in their contempt of Republican Donald Trump.
It was Steele’s bogus dossier that the corrupt FBI-DOJ leaders used to spy on Trump, his family, his associates, his transition team and his administration.
So what did Skripal know about the Steele dossier?
Zerohedge reports…
Col Sergei Skripal – who is currently in intensive care after he and his daughter Yulia were poisoned with a suspected nerve agent – was recruited by MI6 while working at the British embassy in Estonia, according to Russian intelligence services.
When Russia discovered that Skripal had allegedly been paid $100,000 by MI6 to expose undercover Russian intelligence agents in 2006 – the same year Russian double-agent Alexander Litvinenko was poisoned, he was sentenced to 13 years in prison. In 2010, however, Skripal was one of four prisoners released by Moscow in exchange for 10 US spies – after which he moved to the UK and befriended an employee of Christopher Steele.
The Telegraph understands that Col Skripal moved to Salisbury in 2010 in a spy swap and became close to a security consultant employed by Christopher Steele, who compiled the Trump dossier. –Telegraph
A recently deleted LinkedIn account revealed that the British security consultant is based in Salisbury, and his employer is Orbis Business Intelligence – Steele’s firm. Steele notoriously assembled a series of memos containing anti-Trump opposition research to Fusion GPS, the first seventeen of which were compiled into the unverified “Trump-Russia” dossier which the FBI relied on to obtain a spy warrant against a Trump campaign associate.
The BBC is calling the poisoning an “absolutely brazen, full-on challenge to Britain,” by Russia’s Vladimir Putin.
“It’s an entirely new game if they’re doing this… this is an absolutely brazen, full-on challenge to Britain” – @edwardlucas on the potential involvement of Russia in the Sergei Skripal incident #newsnight pic.twitter.com/6r0IjaweTm
— BBC Newsnight (@BBCNewsnight) March 6, 2018
The Gateway Pundit adds…
Police have called in the British military to help investigate the attempted murders.
The assassination attempts come amid reports that Steele knew that the Clinton campaign was footing the bill for the anti-Trump dossier and yet the FBI never included this information in its FISA court application for Carter Page.
Steele, who was tasked with compiling the ‘Trump dossier’ for opposition research firm Fusion GPS, has admitted in court that the discredited document contains “limited intelligence.”
Steele also admitted part of “his final December memo,” was unvetted.

Hillary Cancels Part of Trip After Developing Another Humiliating Injury
MARCH 14, 2018
Good thing she wasn’t taking on North Korea at the time.
First, former Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made headlines this week for slipping twice while making her way down a flight of steps Monday at a palace in India.
Now, it turns out the former first lady and secretary of state had to cancel parts of her scheduled visits in Jodhpur, India, (including a trip to a local fort) because of a fresh new injury — and one likely stemming from her humiliating pratfall at the palace.
According to the U.K. Daily Mail, Clinton has sprained her hand. It wasn’t clear exactly how she got the injury, but since she used the hand as a brace to break her fall on the steps, that’s a pretty good guess.
Clinton top aide Huma Abedin, the estranged wife of the sexting, former New York congressman Anthony Weiner, was right behind her at the time.
Maybe Clinton slipped because the ancient steps really were tough to walk down (though no one else was having a problem.) Maybe it was a little too much post-election chardonnay in the middle of the afternoon.
Whatever it was, it wasn’t a good look for the woman who would have been the leader of the free world.
The slips are just the latest in a long series of incidents that have raised questions about Clinton’s physical health — and whether she was physically up to the job of being president of the United States.
Clinton’s health was repeatedly an issue during the 2016 campaign, including unexplained coughing fits, and apparently needing help navigating flights of stairs. And then there was her infamous utter collapse while leaving a 9/11 memorial in New York City on Sept. 11, 2016.
During the campaign, Democrats accused Clinton critics and Donald Trump supporters of being “sexist” when they raised questions about Clinton’s physical condition, but the incident in India shows how important the issue really was.
If it had been a President Hillary Clinton (God forbid), this video would be much more than just a slightly alarming, but generally harmless image of a well-known woman slipping on some steps. It could well be cause for world tensions to rise, as suspicions grew about the staying power of the United States in any commitments Clinton would undertake.
The country needs a president who can stand up to the world, and to do that, the president needs to be able to stand up in the first place. (Failing that, the president should at least be able to hide it well, a la FDR.)
A chief executive who takes public falls on the world stage is not exactly projecting the image of strength the United States needs to dissuade troublemakers in Tehran, the Kremlin or Pyongyang from disturbing the global peace.
Since Trump defeated Clinton in November 2016, Democrats have found endless reasons to attack him — whether it’s the fabricated “Russia collusion” story, unrest in his administration, or even accusing White House adviser Kellyanne Conway of violating a federal law for endorsing Republican candidates on national television (and you know CNN loved that one).
But one thing no one has credibly accused Trump of is not having excellent physical health.
In fact, the White House press corps was incredulous when Navy Rear Admiral Dr. Ronny Jackson, the White House physician, went public in January with the news of just how physically fit the president is.
Clinton was never fit for the office of the presidency on moral grounds alone. The video from India shows just how unfit she was for it physically.
The country dodged a big bullet in November 2016. And for that, it can thank Donald J. Trump.

Un-sacred Cow by Stilton Jarlsberg
Okay, this won't go down in the annals of Stilton's Place as our wittiest punchline - but it's the best we could do without actually invoking language which would make a Tourette's patient blush or get us a visit from the Secret Service.
Because we didn't make up the horrible, anti-American crap Hillary is spewing in the panels above. In India to promote her book "What Happened," Russia's favorite uranium saleswoman launched into this tirade to describe the millions of troglodytes who voted for Trump as hateful, misogynistic racists who would actually have to improve to be Deplorables.
If this horrible woman had won the presidency, it seems very likely that every person who visits Stilton's Place would now be in either an internment camp (the lucky ones) or a cemetery (those who committed Arkancide). Because to paraphrase Sally Field, she "really, really hates us."
And frankly, Hillary, the feeling is mutual.
BONUS: STAIRWAY TO LEAVENWORTH
Fortunately, the Secret Cervix was on the scene.
While in India, an allegedly sober Hillary Clinton took roughly her millionth spill while trying to stumble down a simple flight of steps.
Despite her painful, legs-akimbo, "the baby is coming NOW!" position, medical experts have confidence that her vagina will be completely recovered should it decide to run for office again in 2020.

Vladimir Putin praises Trump, says U.S. is ‘eating itself up’
March 9, 2018
Russian President Vladimir Putin heaped praise on his American counterpart on Wednesday, but didn’t hold back when it came to criticizing the U.S. political system as a whole.
Speaking to his country’s state-run media on Wednesday, Putin admitted that he had “no disappointment” in his relationship with U.S. President Donald Trump and talked about the “good impression” Trump left on him.
But Putin also highlighted the American government’s inefficiency, saying that the U.S. is “eating itself up.”
What gives?
“I have no disappointment at all,” Putin said of Trump, according to a translation from the Associated Press. “Moreover, on a personal level he made a very good impression on me.”
“It’s possible to negotiate with him, to search for compromises,” Putin said.
https://www.conservativeinstitute.org/foreign-policy/vladimir-putin-praises-trump.htm?utm_source=boomtrain&utm_medium=automated&utm_campaign=ci3&utm_source=boomtrain&utm_medium=automated&utm_campaign=ci3
When the pair first met in 2017, Putin also called Trump a “balanced” leader.
But the Russian president also had some not-so-kind words for the U.S. political system on Wednesday, saying that it has “demonstrated its inefficiency and has been eating itself up.”
“It’s quite difficult to interact with such a system, because it’s unpredictable,” Putin explained. According to the Washington Examiner:
Putin’s comments came on the same day that Russia’s ambassador to the U.S. told Politico that lawmakers on Capitol Hill have not been willing to meet with Russian diplomats, and they worry about being criticized while several investigations continue into Russia’s interference with the U.S. election in 2016.
“The Congress, overwhelmed by Russophobia, is led by politically biased emotions, rather than a clear-thinking mind,” Russian ambassador to the U.S. Anatoly Antonov added. “We are bluntly told they fear criticism.”
Keep your enemies closer
The Kremlin’s seemingly contradictory messages leave American Democrats, who have been fighting for months to prove that Trump or his associates had illegal contact with the Kremlin during his campaign or presidency, doubting that the kind words are merely an act of respect. Nevertheless, Putin’s words should be interpreted as such.
The Russian president’s endorsement was a genuine statement of admiration for a president who — unlike his predecessor — has demonstrated strength, resolve, and determination in the face of boundless adversity.
These are qualities that Putin has been known to respect in both his allies and his adversaries. Putin was much less admiring of the spineless Barack Obama administration, which treated him with kid gloves and asked him to “cut it out” after he interfered in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
Causing problems
In fact, President Barack Obama’s administration all but created the impetuous and meddlesome Russian president we know today with an anemic foreign policy that spelled out consequences but failed to uphold them.
When the Russian-sponsored Syrian dictator Bashar Al Assad used chemical weapons against his own people and crossed Obama’s famous “red line,” he was treated with a stern talking-to from the White House.
Assad paid for the same brazen use of force in a much more tangible way less than a year later when, under President Trump’s unforgiving watch, dozens of Tomahawk cruise missile leveled a Syrian air base.
Putin’s “good impression” of Trump was earned through consistency of action. When Russian aircraft bombed moderate Syrian rebel strained and equipped by Obama’s Department of Defense, the 44th U.S. president responded by capitulating to Putin’s demands to “de-conflict” their areas of responsibility in Syria.
However, when pro-regime soldiers back by Russian mercenaries sought to attack American allies in Syria last month, Trump’s military leaders were given the independence to respond with force, killing over 100 Russian mercenaries in the process.
The language of strength
Put simply, Putin respects strength over rhetoric. Political commentator Matt K. Lewis put it best in an article for The Telegraph:
At some level, high-stakes diplomacy is still a game of chicken – where machismo matters.
Russia’s strongarm chief executive only speaks one language: strength. So when he lionizes his American rival, it should be interpreted as the highest compliment — and a signal that American foreign policy is on the right track.
Every American president since the Cold War ended has started out their administration attempting to improve relations with Russia. Trump is no different in this regard.
Unlike his predecessors, however, Trump is attempting to start from a position of strength. So far, it seems to be having the desired effect.

Hillary Clinton to receive Radcliffe award medal at Harvard
While most Americans have had their fill of liberal elitists praising other liberal elitists from the 90th annual Academy Awards this weekend, those who have a lingering appetite for such hubris should turn to Harvard University on May 25. On this day, former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will receive the prestigious Radcliffe Medal from the ultra-liberal Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, celebrating her lifetime of achievement as a “champion for human rights.”
Clinton will receive her award on Radcliffe Day, described by The Harvard Gazette as an “annual gathering to celebrate the institute’s commitment to excellence and inquiry.” The former Obama appointee is being honored for her “transformative impact” on society.
And the winner is …
Radcliffe Dean Lizabeth Cohen issued a stream of flattering adjectives towards Clinton in response to the Institute’s announcement. She called the twice-failed presidential nominee “champion for human rights,” a “skilled legislator,” and “an advocate of American leadership to create a world in which states live up to their responsibilities.”
Of course, America hardly lived up to its global responsibilities while Clinton served as secretary of State. Under her stewardship, Libya was bombed into submission and left in ruins, Iraq was abandoned at a crucial moment, and Syria was neglected enough to give rise to an Islamic terrorist empire.
Clinton’s record on protecting human rights certainly isn’t worth celebrating, either. During her first trip abroad as secretary of State, Clinton intentionally deemphasized China’s atrocious record of human rights abuses, prompting the Boston Globe to write:
[Clinton] gave the impression that the Obama administration is preparing to downgrade human rights and freedom of expression in American foreign policy.
Clinton made another kind of gaffe when she said pressing China on human rights ‘can’t interfere with the global economic crisis, the global climate change crisis, and the security crisis.’
Feminist U
However, Clinton satisfies requirements that are far more important to Harvard than the technical nuances of her actual human rights record. Most importantly, Clinton was born with twin copies of the influential “X” chromosome, making her a candidate for the Radcliffe Award from birth.
Being a woman is not sufficient to win, though. She would also have to stand out as a progressive icon if she wanted to take home the coveted Radcliffe.
Fortunately for Clinton, she passes the liberal smell test with flying colors. According to an analysis of roll call votes by Voteview, Clinton was more liberal than other senators 85 percent of the time — a record not even surpassed by the socialist-leaning Barack Obama’s during his time in the Senate.
Ontheissues.org, a not-for-profit organization whose bipartisan mission is to provide information to voters, concluded that “Hillary Clinton is a Hard-Core Liberal.”
The Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study was certainly impressed by Clinton’s record as a feminist. A legacy from the age of segregated classrooms, Radcliffe College was a means for women to attain a Harvard education until 1999 when it formally merged with the Ivy League school.
Liberals loving liberals
Much of Radcliffe’s feminist student body deplored this integration, even finding the radically leftist Harvard campus too moderately mainstream for their sensibilities. During the merger, Sophia Chang, co-chair of a student group devoted to lesbians, bisexuals, and “questioning women,” recalled:
I came to realize that Harvard was also a white, male institution like any other. In fact, this is the belly of the beast. If there’s any place to be this is it. If you’re fighting the beast, stay in the belly, find out where it goes.
Clinton will fit in well with these militantly vindictive Radcliffe alumni. After her latest disastrous presidential campaign, she insisted that “millions of white people” were to blame, and she called her opponent’s inauguration speech “a cry from the white nationalist gut.”
She fails to stand out in ideology or political persuasion from previous Radcliffe Award winners. This includes a cast of liberal policymakers, including U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen, Supreme Court Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.
Clinton’s nomination from an Ivy League institution where 90 percent of faculty donations went to the Obama campaign in 2012 is hardly surprising. When two-thirds of college professors identify themselves as liberal in comparison to just 10 percent as conservatives, is it any wonder that a remarkably inefficient civic leader like Clinton would be glorified by academics?
https://www.conservativeinstitute.org/conservative-news/hillary-clinton-medal-harvard.htm
Totally agree. No consequences anymore.
The decline has been in progress for years and it's not all the schools' fault. I recall running into a teacher of mine quite a number of years ago.
I asked him how the school was. He replied that he had quit and was selling insurance because anytime he tried to discipline some brat who deserved it, the kid's parents would come in and yell at him!
The schools and classrooms of today's generation are miles from the schools we attended while growing up.
Today's students probably don't even know what a "detention" is!
...and the devil smiled....
Not the school's fault. It's not their job to teach parents' kids their religion. No saying that that could have avoided this either.
On the other hand, it's NOT their job to push Islam on our kids either as I've read numerous times.
I am curious about this. Do you think it is the public schools' responsibility to teach religion? Specifically, do you think it should be one particular religion, given the constitution and the bill of rights? What role should your church and parents play in teaching religion? Should children in school be forced to pray and read the bible?
They removed God from the classrooms and replaced him with guns.
Opinion from another poster >>
Our society has pushed for minimizing the value of the family. An Unborn baby is not human, we put priority even at the elementary level, issues like transgender, gay and bisexuals, passing condoms are part of the curriculum, an under age teenager can get birth control and in some cases an abortion without the parents approval or knowledge.
The word of God is out of the schools and so is respect for our flag. At home violent and sexual movies are available, tv shows for children and preteens portraits parents as stupid including teachers and principals.
Most popular music among young people uses foul language , promotes violence, physical abuse and drug use. Women singers and actresses dress like hookers.
Doctors and educators want hyperactive children to take medication to calm them down.
Psychologists have determined that spanking is child abuse, so parents pretty much don't discipline their children because parents spend so little time with their kids, they feel guilty to do so.
The schools are not allowed to punish children and staying after school as a punishment is unheard of. They tell their kids that they have done a great job when they didn't, everyone gets a trophy even if they lost.
Most of the new generation of men expect the wife to work, so both parents work leaving the child to be raised by daycare, about 50% of families, the parents are divorced, attendance to church of young families have diminished enormously. New technology keeps everyone busy, it is common to see families in a restaurant all of them on their cell phones and not talking to each other, there are not that many families having dinner together, and if they do they are all on the cell phones.
Children are being told they deserve everything, they are not being taught hard work, accountability and that sometimes you don't get what you want.
I can go on, but you get the idea. Society needs to make an enormous effort to change, if they want to change the consequences like the ones today.
I'll believe when (IF) I ever see it. If so, it will be PARTY TIME!
Old clip but very worthwhile viewing. Especially if you can get a Pelosi supporter to watch it! The insanity of unlimited immigration proven with just pure logic (math).

To Nancy Pelosi and all the other libtard morons:
These Rattlesnakes are in need of a home. They're refugees from the Hill Country pushed out by snake hunting, and feral hogs. Now, we think most of these are good snakes and won't bite you, but we are sure some of these will bite you without provocation.
We can't tell you which snakes in the bunch are the ones that will kill you because they all came in together and we can't tell which is which! Some of the biting ones were actually trained to seek out anyone and bite and to hide among the good ones.
Our federal government has promised to figure it out, so don't worry.
So who wants to give all these snakes a good home? They have dreams and rights you know!

Can you do graduate study at the electoral college or is it just undergrad work?
Stocks and Bondage by Stilton Jarlsberg
(has a Hillary tie in at the end)
Is it just us, or does the timing of the wild, stomach-churning chaos in the stock market over the past few days seem awfully convenient for those anxious to distract Americans from the near-coups attempted by Democrats, intelligence agencies, and media outlets?
Following release of the Nunes memo, concerned citizens were just starting to dust off their pitchforks and fill up their tar-and-feather barrels, when suddenly the market dropped faster than Bill Clinton's pants.
Did some highly-placed, highly-funded person or persons know exactly what and when to sell to send automatic trading computers into a cyber-stampede "flash crash?" We don't know, and we have no proof - but then, the idiot who wrote the "Fire and Fury" book about Trump doesn't have proof of anything either, and he got a bestseller out of it! At least the stuff that we're making up is plausible!
According to the head of the financial department here at Stilton's Place, the company retirement fund (and we quote) "took it in the nuts" on Monday. Fortunately, on Tuesday some of the painful swelling went down...although it may still be weeks before our portfolio can again ride a unicycle without agonizing pain.
Normally, we'd look at such a "rogue wave" financial event as being a fluke rather than a blatant manipulation. But now that we've gotten a look at the breadth and depth of the attempted manipulations during the last election, we're apt to be a little more suspicious than usual.
BONUS: COULDA BEEN A CONTENDER
We were hard pressed to decide which image of "Hillary the Spider" to use for Monday's post. Eventually we went with the one we liked best, but we think this more abstract version also has merit enough to deserve posting for the art lovers among you...
If she'd won, we'd currently be papering public walls with these in the dark of night.
