Ridley’s Believe It Or Not For July 13, 2017 The Russian collusion delusion that has the Blues
lathering like a bunch of rabies infected infected dogs just got even stranger
when we learn that the Russian lawyer Donald Jr. met with who was denied a visa
evidently had the Obama administration probably Lynch overrule that decision to
allow her entry (if there are any sane heads left in the Democratic Party which
sadly watching Harris and Warren is problematic, time for them to step up and
quell this utter nonsense that Tim Kaine, Blumenthal and Schiff are ranting
about treason); Joe Scarborough announced what many have known for years that
he is leaving the Republican Party (good riddance and perhaps he should turn in
any press credentials as his objectivity has been flushed down the toilet years
ago); Gore who probably has the largest carbon footprint of any human being on
the planet was ranting in Australia that climate change ranks on the same par
of concerns with slavery, apartheid and nuclear proliferation (really Al?); the
drama over repeal and replacement of a failed Obamacare continues with the
Republicans struggling and the Democrats refusing to join the discussion;
President Trump is in France to celebrate Bastille Day with President Marcon
and gets slammed by MSNBC (the same network with leftist Joan Walsh that slammed
Ivanka Trump for wearing a dress at the G-20 that looked “girlish”) for
commenting that Marcon’s wife looked in great physical shape; through
July 12, 1944 people have been shot in Chicago 338 of whom have died (hopefully
the ATF agents Trump has sent in will help put a damper on this carnage.

1.
Embrace Your Geekness Day—where
would this country be without our geeks in the forefront of science and
technology?
2. Last
Day of Naadam—if in Mongolia this is your last chance to be watching Mongolian
wrestling, archery and horse racing in venues across the country.
3. 1980 Number One Song—the number one song in
1980 on a run of 2 weeks in that position was “It’s Still Rock and Roll to
Me” by Billy Joel. Here is a performance by him of the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eAQa4MOGkE
4. Word
of the Day—today’s word of the day is “ingeminate” which means to reiterate
or redouble which is what the Reds have to do when in comes to efforts to
overcome the obstruction of the Blues on healthcare and tax cuts.
5. Solo
Man--celebrating the birth on this day in 1942 of Harrison Ford,
noted actor famous for roles of Hans Solo in Star Wars and President Jack Ryan.
On this day
in:
a. 1863 the New York
City Draft Riots began to protest conscription and the fact that for $300 a
wealthy person could be exempted; the riots quickly turned into a race riot
against blacks and did not end until three days after and needed several
regiments of troops and militia to restore order.
b. 1923 the Hollywood
Sign was dedicated in the Hollywood Hills overlooking Hollywood.
c. 1973 in a beginning
of the end moment for Nixon, Alexander Butterfield revealed to the Senate Subcommittee
investigating Watergate the existence of the taping by Nixon of his
conversations (HRC worked on that subcommittee which is probably why she set up
her private server and destroyed or tried to destroy all emails on it to
conceal her qui pro quo dealings while Secretary of State).
d. 1985 Vice President
George H.W. Bush became President of the U.S. for a day when Reagan underwent
surgery to remove polyps from his colon.
e. 2016 following the
voters in the U.K. voting in favor of Brexit, Prime Minister David Cameron
resigned and was replaced by Theresa Nay.
Reflections
on Brexit from the candidate Macron defeated: “I chose as the
campaign logo a blue rose, which means 'make possible the impossible.' I think
the British with Brexit, then the Americans with the election of Donald Trump,
did that: They made possible the impossible. Marine Le Pen Please enjoy the poems
