The IRS and Humana put two more nails into Obamacare's coffin

Thanks to a recent Executive Order from President Trump the Obamacare individual mandate is no longer mandatory.

Yowza! The individual mandate is dead! And with it, the funding "glue" that John Roberts decided was necessary to hold Obamacare together is gone, perhaps for good.

And if this news isn't enough to bury Obamacare, how about one of the nation's largest insurers pulling the plug on the exchanges?

Translation — we're losing too much money on old, sick people. Which is what everyone with a brain said would happen when Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi foisted this debacle onto us.

Did they listen? No. And so here we are, in the final stages of Obamacare's death spiral.

All we need to do now is wait, and get ready for the GOP replacement, coming soon to a congressional committee hearing room near you.

NJ Dems concoct a plan to soak taxpayers for federal dollars withheld from sanctuary cities

Three New Jersey Democrats think they've found a sure-fire way to sidestep President Trump's plan to withhold federal funds from sanctuary cities — have NJ taxpayers make up the difference.

Let me put this in words you three turkeys can understand.

No. Way. Jose.

The people of Union City and the 33rd District may have voted for you, and you might think your loyalties lie more with illegal aliens and less with your taxpaying constituents, but that's not my problem, it's theirs. And I stand with President Trump in wanting to see equal enforcement of our immigration laws. Which means if anyone should be on the hook for your virtue signalling, it's the people in your District, and not the rest of us.

Then let's see how they feel about your activism when you're raiding their pockets. Because I'm thinking they're not gonna be too pleased.

Fortunately Governor Christie would be insane to sign this bill into law.

So it's all just grandstanding on the part of Hudson County progressives, for now. But if NJ's voters are dumb enough to put Phil Murphy into the governor's office next year then throwing tax dollars at illegal aliens will be the least of our problems.

The mayor of Prospect Parkistan, NJ lays out the welcome mat for illegals and jihadis

I don't understand the idea of welcoming criminals into your town. But I'm not a liberal. The mayor of Prospect Park, NJ is, and he's opening the gates and beckoning the barbarians inside.

Prospect Park Mayor, Mohamed T. Khairullah, signed an executive order to reassure residents that they will be protected from President Donald J. Trump's executive order to ban green card and visa holders, along with refugees, regardless of any resident's immigration status.

Break the law, we won't care!

His name's Mohamed, so I'm guessing if someone breaks Sharia law, he'll care, a lot. Immigration law, not so much.

In his executive order, he made it clear that all citizens, regardless if immigrant, refugee, green or visa card holder, are safe in Prospect Park and will not turn anyone to the federal government unless they have committed unlawful actions.

Yo, Chief, "citizens" implies "valid American." Ergo, no issue re immigration, green cards, visas, or refugee status. On the other hand, overstaying a visa, or sneaking into the US, they're "unlawful actions." Really, you could look it up. Then there's jihad; it's pretty "unlawful" too, not that you'd rat out your friends, right?

So it looks like Prospect Parkistan is now a safe haven for anyone looking to hide out from DHS, no matter why. What could go wrong?
