Tax Revenue, Energy Prospects Driving Trump’s Cal Offshore Drilling Plan
by CHRISS W. STREET

The Trump Interior Department’s plan to sell offshore oil and gas drilling rights is an effort to make California pay for being the largest state beneficiary of federal spending.
Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke’s release of a proposal Jan. 4 to sell federal rights to drill for oil and natural gas in all United States offshore waters was met with extreme anger and threats by California’s Democrat leadership and their environmentalist allies.
Gov. Jerry Brown demanded an immediate state drilling moratorium, while California Attorney General Xavier Becerra threatened to file his 25th lawsuit on behalf of progressive Democrats against the Trump administration in the last 11 months. Both Democrat Senators and all 40 Democrats from California’s 53 U.S. House seats oppose offshore drilling.
It should not be surprising that the Trump administration is advocating offshore oil drilling as its first initiative after passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on the promise that lower corporate tax rates would stimulate U.S. domestic investment and drive higher federal tax collection. According to Forbes, the oil industry paid the highest combined federal, state and local tax rate at 45 percent, versus an average U.S. corporate tax rate of 24 percent.
With five percent of America’s proven reserves, California has been actively engaged in offshore oil production since 1896. There currently are 24 drill rig platforms off California’s coast, with most around the Santa Barbara Channel. After the 1969 Santa Barbara Oil Spill, Congress issued moratoriums against offshore drilling until 2008.
That year, Exxon proposed drilling wells in Santa Barbara County’s Tranquillon Ridge field. To avoid California jurisdiction, Exxon planned to drill directionally from their existing offshore Irene Platform in federal waters and onshore from Vandenberg Air Force base.
With California on the verge of bankruptcy in 2009, then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and several environmental groups supported limited offshore oil drilling. But the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico caused Schwarzenegger to pull his support.
With untapped offshore reserves of 3.42 billion barrels, the international price of oil over $69 a barrel, and the cost of building an offshore platform averaging $650 million, the Trump administration sees California drilling as key to an energy investment and tax boom.
California’s overwhelmingly liberal political leadership complains that the state is already a donor to the U.S. government, because it only ranks 38th out of 50 states with just 15.7 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) coming from the feds, versus a national average of 18.3 percent, according to Pew Research.
But in 2013, California was ranked as the #1 recipient for total U.S. federal spending, with $343.7 billion in receipts, over $109 billion more than #2 Texas at $234 billion. For every dollar California residents paid in federal taxes, the state received $1.18 in federal spending.
Public Policy Institute of California polling has seen opposition to offshore oil drilling along the state’s 1,270-mile shoreline consistently rise from 43 percent in 2009 to 73 percent in 2017.
Report: Nancy Pelosi Now a Lock for Speaker of the House in 2019
by JOEL B. POLLAK

Axios.com’s Mike Allen reports that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is now considered a lock for Speaker of the House in 2019, as her party is expected to sweep the 2018 midterm elections.
If so, it would be one of the most remarkable comebacks in political history, after Pelosi led her party to an historic defeat in 2010 after serving as the first female Speaker for four years, then clung to power over a shrinking minority party for eight.
Allen notes: “It would take a flip of 24 seats for Dems to take over. The average loss for the president’s party in his first midterm is about 32 seats, and we’re hearing forecasts of 40+ losses.” He acknowledges, too, that the existing district map, and the past demographic patterns of voter turnout in midterm elections, favor the Republicans. But there are many signs of Democratic momentum, and many prominent Republicans have already retired their seats.
Pelosi came to power after the 2006 midterm elections, a wave that was propelled by public fatigue with the Iraq War, skepticism of President George W. Bush’s proposed Social Security reforms, and a series of scandals that hit House Republicans — including alleged sexual misconduct with congressional pages. Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-IL) masterminded a campaign that recruited conservative Democrats to challenge Republicans in moderate districts.
The new Speaker had promised to “drain the swamp” in Washington. But that promise soon proved empty, as she backed Rep. Jack Murtha (D-PA), known for his abuse of earmarks, for Majority Leader. “Pelosi’s endorsement suggests to me she was interested in the culture of corruption only as a campaign issue and has no real interest in true reform,” said the left-wing Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) at the time.
Ultimately, Rep. Steny Hoyer, from Pelosi’s former home state of Maryland, won that post. But Pelosi moved to exert her control over her party and over the House, centralizing control in the Speaker’s office to an unprecedented degree.
She cast aside the “regular order” of appropriations and authorizations and used her clout to muscle through massive pieces of left-wing legislation, including the ill-fated 2009 “stimulus” and, most notoriously, Obamacare.
Pelosi’s infamous statement that “we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it” could easily have served as the epitaph of her political career and the Affordable Care Act itself. However, both are still around. Pelosi shut down internal challenges to her leadership, and presided comfortably over a caucus reduced to its liberal core. Meanwhile, Republican Speakers John Boehner (R-OH) and Paul Ryan (R-WI) were stymied by the Senate in their efforts to pass legislation they had promised to Republicans — including, but not limited to, Obamacare repeal.
Should Ryan yield the Speaker’s gavel, it would mark the end of a swift rise for the conservative policy wonk, now nearing 47 years old, who became chair of the House Budget Committee in 2011, was nominated for Vice President in 2012, and returned to lead the House Ways and Means Committee in 2015 before being elected Speaker.
Unlike 2006, Democrats are not running conservative candidates. They are running on a left-wing agenda fueled by opposition to President Donald Trump in districts where college-educated voters are leaving the GOP. They are buoyed by the “#metoo” campaign, which has been turned against Trump, though most alleged offenders are liberal Democrats.
Last year, Pelosi faced her first serious internal revolt. This year, she intends to have the last laugh.

The Media Has Found Its Useful Idiots in #NeverTrump
by JOHN NOLTE
How many times does our national media have to get it wrong before the “adults” in the #NeverTrump movement pause for even a single breath before jumping into their Hot Take Mobiles?
The song is always the same…
Whenever an anti-Trump story breaks, as soon as the marching orders come down from their media masters, these Vichy Conservatives are the first to run amok, to spread far and wide what almost always ends up being fake news.
Even though history has time and again proven that a mature amount of skepticism is warranted, #NeverTrump is the first to spew mindless hate on cable news, their web pages, and Twitter accounts.
#NeverTrump never stops posing as the adults in the room, never stops lording their “maturity” over us deplorables… And yet, these are the same people who never fail to wholeheartedly believe the most dishonest institution in America, never fail to toss aside rational thinking, reason, and simple human decency.
Over the past 18 months, #NeverTrump has become the media’s useful idiots, the media’s most useful mindless slaves in the ceaseless quest to spread fake news about Trump.
And if it is not bad enough that these Renfelds no longer possess the self-control or free will required to wait to hear from the other side — you know, like Tom Cotton or David Perdue, is it too much to ask that they stop lying?
Lying through omission is still lying, and if you are going to brand Trump a racist, shouldn’t a oh-so “muh principled” outlet like National Review have enough intellectual honesty to inform its few remaining readers that in the “shithole” meeting Trump said he wanted to increase immigration from “Asian countries” — a fact no one, including Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL), has disputed.
Hey, I know that reporting a mitigating and inconvenient fact undermines the whole Racey McRacist thing, but what about those “muh principles?”
No one expects fake journalists like Jake Tapper and Chuck Todd to tell that truth, but couldn’t National Review at least pretend to care about presenting the full facts? Or is tribalism now the highest priority?
What we should never expect from #NeverTrump is for the sore loser-scales to fall from their eyes so they can see that this manufactured “shithole” kerfuffle is in reality yet another attack on free speech.
To begin with, a president should have the right to speak freely in shorthand behind closed doors. I certainly would not expect #NeverTrump to exhibit the moral courage required to admit that they have done the same, but what about the precious norm that was violated here?
#NeverTrump is all about protecting precious norms and here you have The Dick Durbin violating a precious norm by tattling to the media after a private meeting, an act that only further undermines the ability for Democrats and Republicans to work together. In the scheme of things, is that not a much bigger deal than the kind of shorthand everyone uses, including your precious Lindsey?
And dare we hope that the left’s reliable shock troops in #NeverTrump stand up against the media’s ongoing crusade to curtail free speech as they continue to label truths as racist? Because it is simply a fact that these countries are shitholes, but now we are not allowed say so without being smeared as Klansmen.
So, when it comes to the Great Shithole Controversy of 2018, my feeling is: I do not care, not even a little. I’m sorry that it takes someone like Trump to break the spell of silence the Left is forever weaving around us. I wish a man like Ronald Reagan would come along and accomplish the same thing with more wit and grace. But that was another culture. History deals the cards it deals; we just play them. Trump is what we’ve got.
For all the bad language, for all the loose talk, I would rather hear a man speak as a man without fear of the Nurse Ratcheds in the press and the academy than have him neutered and gagged by a system of good manners that has been misused as a form of oppression. Better impoliteness than silence. Better crudeness than lies.
Unfortunately, none of these truths will ever matter to a mob of shameless #NeverTrump grifters able to profit from being the elitist media’s most useful of idiots.
Dr. Alveda King Counters Trump ‘Racism’ Claims, Slams Facebook for Blocking Pro-Life Message
by IAN MASON
Dr. Alveda King, niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., joined Breitbart News Sunday on the eve of her uncle’s namesake holiday, hitting back at racism accusations against President Donald Trump and levying her own complaints against ultra-liberal Facebook.
“I agree that President Trump is not a racist. He has done so much,” King told host and Breitbart News Washington Political Editor Matthew Boyle.
“Just now … [Trump signed] the bill that was sponsored by Congressman John Lewis making the Martin Luther King Jr. historic site in Atlanta a national park — the first park to be named after an African-American man,” King continued. She defended the president against a rash of new “racism” accusations supposedly stemming from vulgar remarks Democratic staffers are claiming Trump made about third-world countries that send the United States massive numbers of immigrants.
She went on:
And there’s all other kind of legislation and things that President Trump is passing, including getting a lot of black folks out of jail — he’s working on doing that believe it or not and putting them back to work. And putting America back to work — African-Americans especially because our job rate or our hiring rate was so low and it’s going up along with everybody else’s rate. So President Trump is not a racist. He cares about America period. And he said, “No matter what color our skin is, we all bleed red.” So he sees black people, all people as people. He sees Americans as the people he is supposed to serve and he’s doing that. And he is not a racist. I just really want to say that.
King, who has been increasingly active in conservative politics and reportedly voted for Trump in his presidential campaign, backed him up, saying, “[Trump] cares about this country. He cares about the plight of everybody who’s been under-served, mis-served, mistreated, and he’s equalizing that. And he means that and I believe him, I really do.”
King also expressed her frustration with tech giant Facebook, who recently blocked the pro-life Roe v. Wade documentary — on which she is collaborating with other activists — from raising funds from the social media site’s ads.
“Facebook has been taking it down, not letting the paid ads go forth and all that,” King told Boyle. “Trying to stop the message that’s overtaking this nation and that is that babies in the womb deserve civil rights like anybody else does. Just because they are pre-born or unborn, they’re human beings.”
“What this movie does is to show the inhumanity against a certain class of people and that’s the little babies in the womb. Why Facebook is blocking it?” King asked. “I guess some of their followers and people are just complaining about it because they don’t want that message to get out, but the message, in my opinion, is now unstoppable.”
Looking forward to the national holiday named for her uncle, Dr. King explained that she and the King Center like to consider Monday not a “day off” but a “day on.”
“We should take a ‘day on’ of learning to do what my uncle Martin Luther King Jr. — I called him uncle M.L. — said: learn to live together as brothers and as sisters or perish together as fools,” she told Boyle. “We should begin to pray for peace and unity, rather than, in the 1960s, [when] we protested, and sometimes we were angry and things like that. Well now, to unite for peace, we need to pray and seek unity.”
NFL Ratings Crash for the Divisional Playoff Round
by DYLAN GWINN
The Associated Press
The NFL had high hopes that their all-important postseason games, would reverse the terrible ratings trend which has plagued the league all year long.
Those hopes were dashed after the Wild Card round, saw a 13 percent decrease in ratings from the previous year. Which, put an added sense of importance on the Divisional playoff games this past weekend.
Well, the ratings have been tabulated from this past weekend and, unfortunately for the NFL, the numbers do not look good.
According to SportsBusiness Daily, the ratings for all four games fell to the lowest level in nearly a decade.
According to Pro Football Talk, “The good news, if there is any, comes from the fact that the 21.8 rating generated by the Saints-Vikings in the late afternoon/early evening slot was only 0.1 lower than the 21.9 for Steelers-Chiefs last January, even though that game was played in prime time. The bad news is that the apples-to-apples comparison — the late-afternoon Sunday game between the Packers and Cowboys — churned a 28.2.
“The Jaguars-Steelers game played at 1:05 p.m. ET posted a 20.4, the lowest overnight rating in that window in 15 years.
“For the Saturday games, the 17.4 rating coming from Falcons-Eagles was down from last year’s 18.3 from the Seahawks-Falcons contest; that’s the lowest since Ravens-Titans in that same spot drew a 17.0 in early 2009. The 16.6 overnight for the Titans-Patriots game on Saturday night was the lowest since Cardinals-Panthers in early 2009.”
The shame of all this, obviously, is that with the exception of the Patriots-Titans game all of the Divisional round games were excellent. The Falcons-Eagles game may have been low scoring, however it was a hard fought game that went down to the wire.
By all rights, given the quality of games this weekend the ratings should have been great. But of course, the NFL protested their loyal audience away long ago.
The lunatics are leading the asylum again. Palestinian Journalist: Judaism Is A ‘Religion Of Hatred’ Worse Than Nazism
Uriel Sinai/Getty
TEL AVIV – Judaism is a “religion of hatred” that is more cruel than Nazism, a Palestinian columnist claimed in an anti-Semitic oped translated last week by the Middle East Media Research Institute.
Writing in the Omani Al-Watan daily, Palestinian journalist Jawad Al-Bashiti, who resides in Jordan, wrote that Judaism “represents 3,000 years of hostility and hatred … toward mankind as a whole.”
“According to every criterion of human development and progress, cultural, ethical and scientific, especially in the 21st century, there is nothing worse than devotion, in theory and in practice, to the Jewish religion – the Torah and the Talmud – and there is nothing worse than when this devotion takes on a Zionist and political form,” Al-Bashiti wrote.
He falsely charged that Jews avoided assimilation by adopting a “culture of war” that is characterized by “beastliness and hostility toward non-Jews.”
The Jews “invented a god,” Al-Bashiti posited, and “‘Judaized’ the heavens so that they could Judaize the land, in other words, the land of the others, i.e. Palestine, which they saw in their Talmudic visions as the Promised Land.”
The Jews’ god is “angry, rapacious, cruel, hostile and vengeful,” the article, which was first published in August, reads.
“He commands them to usurp the lands of others, burn their cities and their fields, take over their property and kill even babies, children, women and newborns.”
The commandment “thou shalt not kill,” Al-Bashiti falsely wrote, only applies to the murder of fellow Jews.
“If these false delusions remain ‘alive’ in the minds and hearts of the new Israelis, it will be enough to make Nazism seem like nothing but a drop in the ocean of the Talmudic beastliness,” he concluded.
Donald Trump’s Support Among Blacks Has Doubled Since 2016, Amid Racism Claims
by NEIL MUNRO

Two new polls show President Donald Trump’s rising support among black voters, highlighting his political gains from pushing employers to hire Americans instead of lower-wage migrants.
The growing support from blacks — despite furious Democratic claims of racism — could become a shocking political validation in November when Trump will face millions of upper-income Democratic voters who are angry at his “Buy American, Hire American” policies.
Among black men, Trump’s “2017 average approval rating significantly exceeds his 2016 vote share,” admitted a January 11 article in the Atlantic by author Ronald Brownstein. “23 percent of black men approved of Trump’s performance versus 11 percent of black women,” said the article.
That score averages out to 17 percent, or twice the 8 percent score he was given in the 2016 exit polls.
In November 2016, Trump got 13 percent support among black men and 4 percent support among black women, according to the exit polls. That very low support was critical to his victory in the Democrats’ now-demolished “Blue Wall” states.
The poll was “a cumulative analysis of 605,172 interviews SurveyMonkey conducted with Americans in 2017,” according to the Atlantic.
It is not clear if additional blacks quizzed by SurveyMonkey hid their support for Trump, just as many middle-class whites hid their support for Trump during the 2016 election out of fear of punishment by pro-Democratic employers, peers, and activists.
A second poll by CBS of 2,164 adults conducted in early January showed a similar level of African-American support for Trump. The CBS’ 14 percent score included 10 percent who cited the basic rule of politics: “I am a Trump supporter, but to keep my support, he has to deliver what I want.”
Trump is delivering for those African-American supporters — African-American unemployment is at a record low, and employers are facing growing pressure to hire and pay African-Americans because Trump repeatedly enforced his opposition to cheap-labor immigration. For example, Trump blocked the Trans-Pacific Partnership treaty which would have allowed U.S. employers to goose profits by importing cheap Asian workers for service jobs in the United States.
As employers dip deeper into the pool of available labor, workers are coming off the economy’s sidelines. The participation rate for what economists call prime-age workers — those ages 25 to 54 — hit a seven-year high in December. Employment gains have been especially strong for groups that often face discrimination — unemployment for African-Americans fell to 6.8 percent in November, the lowest rate on record.
The Washington Post reported January 12 that the tight labor market is forcing companies to hire employees away from other employers by offering higher wages:
The unemployment rate in December was 4.1 percent, leaving employers struggling to attract and retain good workers and raising the prospect of higher wages as the United States approaches congressional elections in November.
“Employees today have lots of options in all corners of industry, whether you’re in fast food or retail or investment banking,” said Art Mazor, a principal at Deloitte Consulting. “This feels super tight.”
The CBS poll suggested Trump’s support can go higher than 14 percent. Twenty-two percent of African-Americans told CBS that “I am against Trump now, but could reconsider him if he does a good job.”
Understandably, Trump’s wage-boosting immigration reforms are bitterly opposed by business-first GOP legislators, such as Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner, and by immigrant-first Democrats, such as Democratic Rep. Jackie Speier. “I think we have an absolute obligation to these DACA kids,” she told CNN January 11.
Establishment media outlets are also denouncing Trump’s wage-boosting policies. For example, Democrats and their media allies are describing him as a racist for saying he did not want migrants from some poor, war-torn African countries. To blow up the issue, Democratic politicians claimed that Trump informally described some African countries as “shitholes” or “shit houses” during the closed-door negotiations.
Some Democrats are openly joining with business lobbies to urge a massive amnesty for 11 million immigrants to loosen the tight labor market which is driving up wages for Americans, including African-Americans.
1/For those covering immigration note Democrats have made massive concession by dropping decade long bipartisan agreement on need to legalize all 11m undoc immigrants.
2/Leaving full 11m out of deal not only fails to resolve issue in its entirety, but misses opportunity to reduce the deficit, close “the trap door” under min wage which would help all workers. Would provide addt economic boost, be smart policy in time of full employment.
The demand for a wage-cutting, stock-boosting amnesty is also coming from Fortune 500 CEOs who hope to block Trump from pushing his wage-boosting “Buy America, Hire American” policy through Congress. Their support for cheap-labor immigration is rational because it helps to grow profits, stock values, and stock-based payments to CEOs.
Proud to sign this letter along with the CEOs of Coca-Cola, GM, Marriott, Facebook, Microsoft, Apple, Starbucks, Target, Visa, AT&T, Verizon and hundreds more saying Congress must act now to #ProtectDreamers. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2018/01/10/hundreds-of-ceos-tell-congress-bipartisan-daca-fix-needed-immediately/?utm_term=.3fbf3dac2e55 …
But the political benefit of Trump’s immigration policy will help the GOP in November, says Rep. Raul Labrador, a GOP chairman now running or the Idaho governorship.
GOP Majority Leader Rep. “Kevin McCarthy and the Senate leadership need to make it about this — if we can’t make a deal that takes care of the border security issue, then we need to walk away from the table and just say ‘Fine, let the American people decide,” Labrador told Breitbart News January 12.
“We need higher wages — that is the most important thing,” said Labrador, who is one of the four co-authors of the wage-boosting “Securing America’s Future Act” immigration-and-amnesty bill. “I know the American people will be on the side of security and enforcement and they will not stand with the Democrats,” said Labrador, who is retiring from Congress to run for the governorship of Idaho.
Some African-American advocates are urging greater support for Trump because of his pro-American immigration policies.
Wake up black Americans!!! This black Congressman will shut down the US Government for the sake of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. How exactly does that benefit his constituents in his district? http://thehill.com/homenews/house/368951-lewis-i-wont-vote-for-government-funding-without-a-daca-deal?amp&__twitter_impression=true …
11:04 AM - Jan 14, 2018
Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) said Sunday that he will not vote to fund the government unless lawmakers reach a deal protecting immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children.

Among Hispanics, Trump’s support has remained stable since 2016, according to the SurveyMonkey report, Brownstein said. “Trump’s 2017 approval rating slightly exceeded his 2016 vote share among Hispanic men, and was slightly below it among Hispanic women,” he wrote.
Mysteriously, More People Are Fleeing The Highest Taxed States
I wonder what the 2020 census will look like when it comes time to reapportion the nation’s congressional districts? It’s a question which will likely be impacted by new data released by United Van Lines. They keep track of how many people are relocating to and from the various states and one trend which we’ve been seeing for a number of years now has continued in 2017. As the Free Beacon reports, some of the states with the most people packing up and heading for greener pastures seem to be the ones with the highest taxes.
Illinois, New Jersey, and New York were the top states in the nation for outbound moves in 2017, according to data from United Van Lines.
United Van Lines, which tracks state-to-state migration patterns, found that Illinois was the top state for outbound migration with 63 percent of moves going out of state.
“The Northeast continues to experience a moving deficit with New Jersey (63 percent outbound), New York (61 percent) and Connecticut (57 percent) making the list of top outbound states for the third consecutive year,” the report states. “Massachusetts (56 percent) also joined the top outbound list this year.”
So… Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts. Why do those names sound so familiar? Perhaps because the states with the highest tax burdens include the following: New York is number 1, Connecticut is number 6, New Jersey is number 7 and Illinois is number 9. I’m not sure how Taxachusetts managed to stay off the top ten on that list, but they weren’t much further down.

TRENDING:
The entire "flat Earth conspiracy" is a hoax and the media is loving it
Of course, that doesn’t explain all of the list. The rest of the states rounding out the places where people are in the biggest hurry to leave are Kansas, Ohio, Kentucky, Utah, and Wisconsin. None of them are in the group with the highest tax burden. So where are people moving to? The ones with most new residents are Vermont, Oregon, Idaho, Nevada, South Dakota, Washington, South Carolina, North Carolina, Colorado, and Alabama.
Vermont is something of a shock because they actually have the third highest tax burden. Alabama is the only state on that list which falls in the ten lowest tax burden states, coming in at 43. But one of the other driving factors is obviously opportunity. The Dakotas are experiencing a surge in energy exploration jobs, as well as being right to work states. The Carolinas, Idaho, Nevada and Alabama are on that list as well. The explanation for why so many people are going to Washington and Oregon may simply be folks with faulty GPS systems in their vehicles.
Getting back to the census question, New York has been bleeding off residents for a long time now and consistently losing seats in Congress. Looking at these numbers, that may happen again after 2020. It’s also no mystery that the rest of the high tax states tend to be the blue ones. There may be some regional demographic changes which favor the Democrats, but overall, their representation in the House may wind up shrinking because they continue to tax their residents to the point of exhaustion and evacuation.
