But allowing felons to vote does just that, because felons make law when they vote on ballot propositions, which become state law when they pass. - [Sessions out as attorney general](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/07/sessions-out-as-attorney-general/): The move was a long time in coming, and the only question that remained to be answered was how soon after midterms Sessions would go.

This eager](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/06/how-eager-is-msnbc-for-the-dems-to-win-big-this-eager/): Is this another instance of fake news, or was MSNBC merely indulging in a little wishful thinking? - [Cartoon of the Day: Nervous wreck](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/06/cartoon-of-the-day-nervous-wreck/): Trump economy - [Bombshell: Man says he had encounter with Christine Ford just like the one she describes](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/06/bombshell-man-says-christine-blasey-ford-likely-mistook-brett-kavanaugh-for-him/): Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, who made then-Judge Kavanaugh's life a living hell that has endured even after his swearing in as a Supreme Court justice knew some of the information about this unnamed witness during the hearings but chose to remain tight-lipped about it. - [Michigan reporter captured on tape saying, ‘F*ck, could you imagine John James winning?’](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/06/michigan-reporter-captured-on-tape-saying-fck-could-you-imagine-john-james-winning/): James, who was at one point down by 20 points in multiple polls, is now behind only by 2 points, according to a Change Research poll released just less than 24 hours before the elections. - [The compromised comms of CIA, State, and Hillary Clinton](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/06/the-compromised-comms-of-cia-state-and-hillary-clinton/): Pervasive insecurity. - [In 2016, George Soros boasted of spending half a billion dollars on migrants](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/05/in-2016-george-soros-boasted-of-spending-half-a-billion-dollars-on-migrants/): The Times also acknowledged that Soros has contributed $75 million to federal candidates and political committees, as well as $32 billion to his liberal-leaning Open Society Foundations. - [Cartoon of the Day: Crazy times](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/05/crazy-times/): Crazy Democrats - [Chelsea Handler strips down to her skivvies to encourage fans to get out and vote](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/05/chelsea-handler-strips-down-to-her-skivvies-to-encourage-fans-to-get-out-and-vote/): I'm still not clear on the association between losing one's close in front of a camera and getting out the vote.

In reality, they are neither. - [Black Panthers armed with assault rifles campaign for Stacey Abrams; one problem](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/05/black-panthers-armed-with-assault-rifles-campaign-for-stacey-abrams-one-problem/): One of amusing irony of the quasi-military group's decision to march with rifles in support of Abrams is that she has stated that as governor she intends to confiscate Georgians' guns. - [NYPD search for teens who hurled metal pipe through window of synagogue](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/05/nypd-looking-for-teens-who-hurled-metal-pipe-through-synagogue-window-during-sabbath-services/): The area, which is largely inhabited by Jews of the Hasidic sect, has long been a hotbed of racial tension. - [Ocasio-Cortez says impeaching Trump is a ‘no-brainer’](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/05/ocasio-cortez-says-impeaching-trump-is-a-no-brainer/): When all is said and done, you can't vote to remove a president from office merely because you don't like him as a person.

Candidates for that dubious distinction include the fact that the murder was premeditated — 15-year-old Gregory Logan Ramos awakened his sleeping mother hours after they argued about his poor grades and strangled her. - [NYC synagogue vandalism suspect is Dem activist, former City Hall anti-hate crime intern](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/03/nyc-synagogue-vandalism-suspect-is-former-city-hall-anti-hate-crime-intern-democratic-activist/): In other Facebook posts, Polite rails against Israel and posts about Palestinian causes. - [Marxist Gillum campaign worker assaults College Republicans](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/03/marxist-gillum-campaign-worker-assaults-college-republicans/): 'A new report from Politico claims Gillum used an official Tallahassee Mayoral office account to pay for a private flight to visit with potential donors to his Gubernatorial campaign.' - [Trump’s ‘rock-throwing’ threat blamed for event that took place before he made it](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/03/trumps-rock-throwing-threat-blamed-for-event-that-took-place-before-he-made-statement/): It’s more than just despicable.

Sanctuary policies not only provide a refuge for illegal aliens, but they also shield criminal aliens who prey on people in their own and other communities.’ - [If Democrats retake House, it will be due to lies they have peddled about pre-existing conditions](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/03/if-democrats-retake-house-it-will-be-dye-to-lies-they-have-peddled-about-pre-existing-conditions/): The Democrats have kept these realities tightly under wraps, along with another important one.

They didn't. A search for Leighton's name in The New York Times, Washington Post, and broadcast networks returned zero results. - [Second caravan reaches Mexico — and they’re armed](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/02/second-caravan-reaches-mexico-and-theyre-armed/): The Associated Press reports that the mob has been much more unruly than the first with some allegedly carrying weapons and firebombs made from improvised soft-drink bottles and gasoline. - [Republicans see electoral boost from migrant caravan; Dems continue to avoid the issue](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/02/republicans-see-electoral-boost-from-migrant-caravan-dems-continue-to-avoid-the-issue/): The Nov. 6 midterm elections will be a big indicator as to how Trump’s messaging and support helps GOP candidates, as he has endorsed dozens of candidates across the U.S. and has held campaign rallies for many others throughout the last several months, making illegal immigration the center focus during many of his speeches. - [Cartoon of the Day: Angels in disguise](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/02/cartoon-of-the-day-angels-in-disguise/): Migrant caravan - [Airline passenger to man wearing MAGA hat: Your hat ‘sanctions murder and evisceration’ of Jews](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/02/airline-passenger-to-man-wearing-maga-hat-your-hat-sanctions-murder-and-evisceration-of-jews/): The note reveals much. It suggests that the writer is young and emotionally high-strung. There are a great many Jews living in America who, like her, lost family in the Holocaust, but I doubt that that many hopped aboard transcontinental flights after learning that 11 total strangers of the same faith were massacred. - [Andrew Gillum campaign: Florida is 'f***d up', 'cracker state'](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/02/andrew-gillum-campaign-florida-is-fd-up-cracker-state/): Gillum's proposed tax increases, while substantial, would not be nearly enough to pay for his healthcare plan. As attorney Hans Bader noted earlier, Gillum's policies would lead to increases in the crime rate, inadequate punishment for some murderers, less safe prisons, and unnecessary increases in Florida's corrections budget. - [Anti-Trump women strip naked in attempt to persuade people to vote against Republicans](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/02/anti-trump-women-strip-naked-in-attempt-to-persuade-people-to-vote-against-republicans/): No word yet whether she will be taking her motley crew on the road between now and Election Day, but erotic novelist Dawn Robertson has hit on a curious message that she hopes will persuade voters to cast their ballot for Democrats on November 6. - ['Today' show's Al Roker dresses as white character for Halloween; NBC evidently has no problem](https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/11/01/nbcs-al-roker-dresses-as-white-character-for-halloween-network-evidently-has-no-problem/): Roker didn't merely talk about dressing up as a white character.
