Ted's Big Adventure

Turns Out Melania’s Speech Writer Was A Democrat

Well, it took a couple of days for everything to come to light, but finally one of Trump’s staffers took credit for the debacle.  TEGNA investigative reporter Brendan Keefe has learned Meredith McIver is shown as a registered Democrat in Lexis/Nexis, a database of information regularly used by journalists, lawyers and government officials. McIver is an in-house staff writer for the Trump Organization who also has ghostwritten multiple books written by Donald Trump. She has been a registered Democrat since 1996, according to the database.

"First of all, of course she’s a Democrat. This is the kind of thing that Democrats do. Maybe it was sabotage. Maybe it was a lack of ethics. I don’t know. But this has seemed fishy from the beginning. Secondly, and I mean this with all sincerity, why would Donald Trump hire a Democrat to write his wife’s prime time speech? Sure, I understand entertainment. I understand that sometimes a gig is just a gig and that writing a speech might be no different. But it still seems strange, doesn’t it? Unless, of course…well, never mind. It sure does seem like any moderately intelligent person would have known that in the digital age, this sort of thing was going to come out immediately." - Poor Richard

What Do Alec Baldwin and Urine Throwing Protesters have in Common?

Cleveland - Police broke up skirmishes between groups of demonstrators a few blocks from the Republican National Convention as large crowds formed Tuesday afternoon. Hundreds of protesters and police took over Public Square in downtown Tuesday afternoon. Some of the larger groups dispersed just after 5 p.m., but new protesters arrived with masks on.

At one time, protesters from Black Lives Matter, Westboro Baptist Church and the KKK were in the square and were said to be throwing urine at each other. The smaller groups included a Tamir Rice group, a man with a sign saying "Jesus Vapes," a woman doing yoga with a pro-police and anti-bullying sign and another person asking folks to tell their best Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump joke. The West Ohio Minutemen are there too, they call themselves a constitutional militia group.

Actor(?) Billy Baldwin, brother of Alec and another leftist nut that fell from the Baldwin family tree was there to marched with some protesters.  He was in Cleveland for the RNC to show his support to activists and display a little white guilt for BLM. 

Scuffles also broke out when noted general of the Tinfoil Hat brigades and radio show host Alex Jones started speaking in downtown’s Public Square. Police on bicycles pushed back a surging crowd, and Jones was whisked away. Minutes later, more officers on bicycles formed a line between a conservative religious group and a communist-leaning organization carrying a sign that read, “America Was Never Great.”

Ah Good Times....Good Times.....

Rapper Believes Blacks Will Continue Targeting Cops

Believe me when I say that I had never heard of rapper Lil Boosie until today. He’s apparently mildly famous (just check out those gold chains baby) and from Baton Rouge. Being from the place where 3 police officers were ambushed and murdered Sunday, Boosie decided to chime in on the killing. His assessment is that black people will continue to kill cops until there is justice and that’s just fine with him.

Lil Boosie made a video for TMZ, and while he pretends to condemn the recent anti-cop killings, he both excuses them and encourages more. He starts out by saying the police ambush was definitely inspired by the Alton Sterling shooting a week before. Sterling, if you remember, was killed by Baton Rouge officers while resisting arresting and trying to pull a gun on them. 

“People I been talking to, they upset about it, and it’s a lot of anger down there, a lot of people are angry down there. Everybody I’m talking to when I call home, they mad. They mad”  

“If that guy don’t get indicted and sent to prison for life, it’s going to be another war. It’s be another shooting. It’s going to keep on going on because if people feel like they not protected by the police and the police trying to kill them, man it’s going to get worser,” 

Yes, he actually said “worser.” But Boosie wasn’t quite done butchering the English language. Check out how he characterizes the ambush of police officers that killed 3 and injured 3 more:

“We’ve been going through a lot of stuff in Baton Rouge for so long, and this was they time to, I guess, to just express they madness. Express they self because they mad. " 

It’s just all out craziness right now. I don’t think it’s going to stop until they really start convicting officers for doing what they do. If they don’t start convicting officers of what they’re doing, it’s just going to keep on escalating.  

Lil Boosie is a career criminal with a long line of arrests and convictions including drug and weapons charges. He was acquitted of murder, but police believe he may be involved in at least 5 other killings. This is a thug that has no respect for the law or human life.

America Seen Through the Eyes of It's Enemies, Both Foreign and Domestic

"The United States appears to be entering another era of dangerous internal instability similar to the one it endured in the 1960s-1970s.......Our enemies increasingly may gamble that provocations won't elicit a U.S. reaction. Or that even if America did respond, the resulting domestic divisions and turmoil would diminish the effectiveness of the response. 

Add to the equation record debt and vast cuts in the defense budget, and our enemies may conclude that we are Rome of AD 500, Britain of the late 1940s, or Russia of the 1980s.

To be blunt, America's vulnerable post-war global order may already seem to those abroad to be bloated carrion ready to be picked apart by opportunistic vultures." — Victor Davis Hanson
