Newsweek is Pro Militia Now

As long as it's these guys:

Has any "news" magazine fallen further than Newsweek? What a train wreck. I saw they also just got taken to the woodshed, including by a host of left leaning media/people about "evil Melania chopping down the sacred White House tree". What a bunch of losers. The guy who paid the $1 to buy them paid 99 cents too much.

Ivanka Trump Wears Her Company's Clothes In Social Media Posts, Raising Further Conflict Of Interest Questions

Quote
White House senior adviser and fashionista Ivanka Trump has reportedly flaunted many of her style and fashion company’s products during the majority of her time in Washington, again raising questions about conflicts of interest within an administration heavily linked to the business world.

The president’s eldest daughter was shown wearing dresses, jewelry, bags or shoes from her company, IT Collection LLC, in 46 out of 68, or 68 percent, of pictures posted to her social media accounts between March and October, according to an analysis conducted for The Wall Street Journal.

The report described Trump as a “walking billboard for her brand,” another terse accusation tossed at President Donald Trump’s administration of potentially profiting from running the country’s executive branch.

Ivanka Trump pushed back, stating she would not have entered the public sector if profits were her original goal.

“If what motivated me was to grow my businesses and make money, I would have stayed in New York and done just that,” Trump told The Journal in an emailed statement.

At thy right hand pleasures for evermore.

I sort of wonder if they think they are fooling anyone or do they actually think people want to see this? 

Or is it just worker drones printing what the boss tells them to.  A lot of these publications are owned by wealthy people who take a loss on them.

I know, right!  And if she wore somebody else's line she would catch hell for that too.  It would be too expensive or didn't support children's age old right to work or some other bullsquat.

Leftist tend to be "pro-gun" until they get power.  And then it is time to disarm everyone else.

So, if I want to keep my guns AND be looked at favorably by Newsweek, all I have to do is profess to be a Communist?

Eventually, they'll tire of that, and the various outlets will finally get their overdue demise.
I promise not to duck.

I love going into my local library and seeing their years old copy of newsweek on display with the heading "Last Print Issue!" on the front.

Will this t-shirt work?  I can finally wear it in public after having it for 12+ years w/o being conscious of my weight.

I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.
