Mark Dice Debunks Trump Making Fun of Handicapped Reporter

I have to admit when I first saw the news reports of Donald Trump allegedly making fun of a handicapped reporter I was rather horrified. It was one of a few events that made me wonder if I could actually vote for him.  In the end, Trump got my vote because the thought of a Hillary Clinton reign was too hideous to contemplate- and as flawed as he is, he seemed like our only hope for a better future.

Then Meryl Streep takes the Golden Globe stage to vilify Trump for having mocked that reporter. As I was searching YouTube for the video snippet of her speech, since I did not watch the show, I came across this Mark Dice video. Apparently, that 'spastic' movement is something he has been doing for years.

Makes me feel a little better about the whole thing.

Meryl Streep Blasts Disney For Anti-Semitism While Praising Emma Thompson

The National Board of Review had its annual pre-Golden Globes dinner. Emma Thompson is up for a Best Actress award for Disney's "Saving Mr. Banks", where she plays P.L. Travers, the creator of "Mary Poppins," and Meryl Streep was there to heap praises on good 'ol Emma.  Meryl's 9 minute speech included a rant against Walt Disney himself for his anti-women, anti-Semitic stances, all the while calling Emma "practically a saint." Meryl even wrote a poem for her buddy Emma titled "An Ode to Emma, Or What Emma is Owed."

Calling Emma practically a saint all the while criticizing Disney for supporting anti-Semitic lobbying groups?  Doesn't Meryl know that Emma is queen of the anti-Israel Boycott and Divestment movement, which is just another form of anti-Semitism?

Meryl, Meryl.
