Chinese Zodiac: 2019 Is The Year Of The Pig

Let's have some fun!

According to Google Search:

Pig is the twelfth in the 12-year cycle of Chinese zodiac sign. The Years of the Pig include 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019, 2031, 2043...

and

A pig represents luck, overall good fortune, wealth, honesty, general prosperity, symbolizing a hard working, a peace-loving person, a truthful, generous, indulgent, patient, reliable, trusting, sincere, giving, sociable person with a large sense of humour and understanding.

The 2019 Year of the Pig begins on February 5.

In honor of the 2019 Year of the Pig (my idea, Warren's art work for the graphic below):

Why Trump Tweets

And should continue to Tweet (HERE and HERE, two different Twitter accounts).

The Democrats, the establishment GOP, and the media want President Trump to stop Tweeting because his Tweets are interfering with and eroding the narrative.

As Donald J. Trump Tweeted @ 8:23 this morning:

The Fake News Media hates when I use what has turned out to be my very powerful Social Media - over 100 million people! I can go around them

Trump And The Media

Received via email:

Lunch with the Pope

President-elect Trump invited the Pope for lunch on his mega yacht.
The Pope accepted and during lunch, a puff of wind blew the Pontiff's hat off, right into the water.

It floated off about 50 feet, then the wind died down and it just floated in place.

The crew and the secret service were scrambling to launch a boat to go get it, when Trump waved them off, saying, "Never mind, boys, I'll get it."

The Donald climbed over the side of the yacht, walked on the water to the hat, picked it up, walked back on the water, climbed into the yacht, and handed the Pope his hat.

The crew was speechless. The security team and the Pope's entourage were speechless.

No one knew what to say, not even the Pope.

But that afternoon, NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, CNN reported:

"TRUMP CAN'T SWIM!"

Paris: Shooting at Charlie Hebdo HQ ---- Hebdo is the Mad Magazine of France --- UPDATED CONSTANTLY

THIS IS A BIG STORY, FOLKS.

IMAGINE IF MUSLIMS MURDERED THE PEOPLE AT MAD MAGAZINE, THE STAFF AT BILL MAHER, OR TREY PARKER AND MATT STONE FROM SOUTH PARK.

THAT'S WHAT THIS IS. 

Another attack's been made at the office of the satirical weekly, and this time, tragically, there appear to be casualties of jihad:

Several people have been killed by armed gunmen in a shooting at the Paris offices of a satirical magazine, according to French media reports.

Shooting was heard at the headquarters of Charlie Hebdo, a satirical magazine known for publishing controversial cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed in 2012.

"Several men in black cagoules were heard to shout 'the Prophet has been avenged'", wrote Pierre de Cossette, a broadcast journalist with Europe1 News.

"I think there are casualties," said the publication's cartoonist, Renaud Luzier.

The magazine is based in Paris's 11th arrondissement.

It should be clearer than ever now that France is under siege by jihad, and this was bound to happen. But is the leftist government now in charge going to take effective action? There's no telling if they will.

REPORT: A Car Has Exploded In Front Of A French Synagogue

French media outlet Metronews reports that there's been a car explosion in front of a synagogue in Sarcelles, a city near Paris where two were two gunmen attacked the office of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo just hours earlier.
It is not clear whether the two events are connected. The Paris version of Metro reports that this event was an incident unrelated with the attack at the magazine.
The car was parked in front of a synagogue, and reportedly exploded at about 2.30 p.m. local time (1.30 p.m. GMT).

At the time of writing, the shooter who attacked the newspaper office in central Paris are still at large in the French capital's suburbs.

Here is a map of the two events:

The attack at Charlie Hebdo, a well known irreverent magazine which has previously been the target of attacks, up to 12 people dead and several more injured. 

The paper's editor-in-chief and three leading cartoonists are reportedly among the dead.

Allah Arrested For Theft

Charges to be filed.

It's about time that charges were filed against Allah. Specifically, a fellow named Universal Knowledge Allah.

Not from the Onion, but rather from Jihad Watch, citing this source:

Allah arrested for theft of 300-year-old Stradivarius violin worth $6,000,000

MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee police have announced the names of the people they believe stole a 300-year-old Stradivarius violin worth six million dollars. Police have also confirmed the recovery of the rare violin.

36-year-old Universal Allah, 41-year-old Salah Jones and an unnamed female were arrested by Milwaukee police on February 3rd. The Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office plans to have charges filed and a criminal complaint issued by February 7th....

Do away with the damned flutes and strings!
And behead any person who sings!
Every band, every choir
Gets thrown in the fire!
