"That which does not kill you, makes you wear sweat pants." JAG Product Placement

Don't cry for them. The Dreamers don't need your sympathy.
And as far as unwinding DACA? It's fruitless to even try.
DACA was intended to swell the numbers of dependent-future-Democratic-voters. The "Architect," Barack Obama never meant for it to be "unwound." Ever.
Just like Obamacare.
It was never about "helping" anyone, not "Kids Living in the Shadows," and certainly not American citizens.
And now that they are here, predictably, it's emotional and unwindable. And who's taking the heat? Not Obama.
But there's no reason to cry for the Dreamers. This week an illegal immigrant appeared on Tucker Carlson. He said he was a lawyer. An Officer of the Court. How does that happen, you ask? Beats me.
Yes, despite what politicians and the mainstream media say, these Dreamers are not kids. Most of them are in their 30s. And Obama brought them here. Not their parents.
He flew them, bussed them, and dropped them into every state of the union. And the media ignored that story, then and now.
And, from the looks of things, these people have already been given a pathway out of the shadows: Good jobs, access to our schools, colleges, health care, welfare and other social benefits. They are issued drivers' licenses and given sanctuary. And the ones who are claimed to "fight for our country?" They compromise only 7 percent.
It is our young 'uns, the Millennials, not the Dreamers for whom you should shed a tear.
Because they're stupid.
And they're in their 30s, too. So old, and so stupid.
Of course they had a lot of help getting that way. Our Uber-Liberal president started it. College professors, Hollywood and the media continued it. Toss in the teachers in public schools, elementary through high school, the ones who protest at Berkeley and advocate violence. The ones who return Dr. Seuss books to the First Lady, and you get Millennials.
And the payoff for Liberals is huge. A stupid electorate is easy to control, and when they are ignorant of their heritage and Snowflake fragile, these people are as valuable as votes in the bank.
You've seen them. They're the ones in YouTube videos who don't know who fought in the Civil War; who don't know who we fought in the Revolutionary War; and who think Jesse Ventura was one of the Founding Fathers.
They prefer Socialism, but can't define it. They love Bernie, even though he'll never level with them and tell them what Socialism really is.
He could have during the campaign. But he didn't. He could have pointed to Venezuela and said, "That's Socialism, kiddies," and explain that Venezuela was formerly a prosperous democracy. But now it isn't.
But then he'd have to tell them that Socialism wasn't doing so hot in Venezuela, that the people there don't have Starbucks, or toilet paper, and have been reduced to eating animals from the local zoo for dinner.
Yet, in all of this, it's Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg I feel sorry for. After all, why paint just Millennials with the Stupid Brush when you can include Hollywood?
Tinseltown loves to tell everyone what to do. This year they said, "Don't worry. You don't have to see a movie to decide who should win the Academy Award. We'll do it for you. And we've picked The Post, Meryl, Steve and Tom."
But I saw The Post, and I am worried. "How will Millennials be able to understand the movie," I fretted. "In fact, how can anyone understand it?" It was that bad.
It was about the Pentagon Papers. That's the only part that was clear. But, who did what...with the Papers...and why were they important?... And why does Streep wring her hands so much...and wear flowered shirtwaist dresses all the time?
If movies are supposed to tell a story, no one connected with this movie knew it.
"But it's a Spielberg movie!" protestors protest. "Tom Hanks is in it! Meryl Streep! It has to win!"
Maybe it's the l e n g t h of the movie that made me grumpy...And the thousands of actors you couldn't keep track of...and couldn't figure out what part they played...And the depressing lighting...
It was clear that Streep as Katharine Graham owned a newspaper, but didn't know what to do, because she was a woman, and owned a newspaper...It was grueling.
The film needed six more edits, but Spielberg wanted a release in time for the Awards. And it showed.
Spielberg said the film was an homage to women who take charge of their power. But it wasn't. It was about what Streep and Hanks said in their scathing personal comments on the red carpet, about the movie, about Trump, and about their preemptive refusal to attend a screening of the film at the White House.
It was about giving the finger to Conservatives. And Donald J. Trump.
But the movie was so poorly crafted, I wonder if anyone got the message.
Hold the line, America.
