FIGHT THE POWER: Second Amendment Sanctuary Movement Spreads To Kentucky. “The Second Amendment Sanctuary movement isn’t just sweeping the state of Virginia, though it’s certainly getting the most attention thanks to the sheer number of counties, cities, and towns that have adopted resolutions in advance of Governor Ralph Northam’s anti-gun agenda seeing action in the state legislature next month. Remember, this movement actually began in Illinois in 2018 before spreading west to Washington State, Oregon, Colorado, and New Mexico. In recent months we’ve seen more Second Amendment sanctuaries take root in Texas, Florida, Rhode Island, Tennessee, and even New Jersey. Now several counties in Kentucky are leading the charge in their state.”

It’s like finding yourself cornered at a party by someone who has a weird obsession, like shower caps or toe nails, and will ramble on and on about it forever, while you consider chewing your own arm or faking death to escape it.

WHY IS CANDIDATE MIKE BLOOMBERG’S OPERATION PEDDLING FAKE NEWS? Fake news report costs Bloomberg $7.6m in fines.
The financial markets watchdog AMF said Bloomberg distributed “information that it should have known was false”.
The AMF said Bloomberg did not respect journalistic ethics “as no verification of the information was undertaken before publication.”
Seems like his White House might be untrustworthy.

MARC THIESSEN: Past few weeks have been the best of Trump’s presidency.
The House of Representatives will soon impeach President Trump. Yet these past few weeks have arguably been the best of Trump’s presidency—not despite impeachment, but in no small part because of it.
Consider the string of successes Trump has racked up in recent days. First came news that the U.S. economy added 266,000 jobs in November, far exceeding economic forecasts. Not only that, but the Bureau of Labor Statistics also revised the August and September jobs reports upward, adding 41,000 more jobs to the Trump economic record. And a new Quinnipiac poll found that 57% of Americans said they are better off financially since Trump took office.
In a move that will further bolster the economy, Trump reached agreement with House Democrats to move forward on the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), giving the president a major win. Within days, Trump also reached a “Phase 1” trade deal with China, postponing new tariffs on Chinese goods that were set to kick in and cutting tariffs on some Chinese products he had previously imposed in half. The administration expects a $200 billion boost in exports over two years from the deal. Both deals will certainly bolster the president’s standing with the rural and working-class voters who defected to Trump from the Democrats in 2016.
That’s not all. Trump also reached agreement with Democrats on a spending bill averting a government shutdown. He secured Democratic support on a tax bill that would repeal three Obamacare taxes, including the “Cadillac tax” on high-cost employer-sponsored health insurance—a major win for union workers. And the House approved a $738 billion defense spending bill that would authorize the creation of his Space Force and his parental leave policy for federal workers, while not including restrictions Democrats had threatened on use of defense dollars to build a border wall.
Trump also got good news from across the pond, when Boris Johnson’s Conservatives trounced the Labour Party by effectively following Trump’s 2016 campaign script—appealing to working-class voters with an anti-globalist message, promises to protect entitlements and make “colossal” investments in infrastructure. The Tory victory showed that Trump’s brand of conservative populism is still potent.

ANDY MCCARTHY: Trump’s impeachment is all too likely to become ‘the new normal.’

I’m really concerned that the irreparable damage that now every president that has a different party in the House, in control of the House, will have to fight impeachment his whole term,’ Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) told Washington Examiner. ‘It’s just a very, very dangerous precedent. There will definitely be some people wanting payback.’”
