Tarnished Triple Crown?

Oh that race again!

Will the 13th Triple Crown go down in history as a tarnished trophy? It’s hard not to wonder in light of the performance by Justify’s stablemate, Restoring Hope. The question is being nursed by one of the owners of Vino Rosso, Mike Repole, who marked the way Restoring Hope was rushed to the head of the pack and then cut in to pin Bravazo on the rail and block him through much of the race.

The controversy surfaced in a scoop by the New York Post. No one seems to be disputing that Justify is a historic steed. Yet many, including us, had a weather eye out for Bravazo, who, in the Preakness, was accelerating on Justify at the end and would have nosed him had he had a few more yards. In the Belmont, he was right up with Justify almost from the moment they burst from the gate.

Libs’ formula for getting what they want, calling on their “inner Alinsky”

If it’s not one thing, it’s the other.

Here’s one thing:

You know how Communion in the hand was accomplished.  You know how the use of “altar girls” was achieved.

Libs intentionally violate the law until the law is changed.  That’s what happened. Moreover, even the restraints and caveats in the modified laws were ignored.

Libs do whatever the hell they want, while – channeling their inner Alinsky – point their fingers at the slightest deviation of law by more conservative Catholics.

Meanwhile, heap coals on their head, as Paul recommended.

Robert De Niro Slams Trump at the Tonys: ‘F— Trump’

Revolt of the rich and famous.

Robert De Niro had a few choice words for President Donald Trump while the legendary actor was on stage at Sunday’s Tony Awards to introduce Bruce Springsteen’s musical performance.
“I’m going to say one thing, F— Trump,” De Niro said while pumping his fists in the air. “It’s no longer down with Trump. It’s f— Trump.”
The political sentiment earned De Niro a standing ovation from the crowd at Radio City Music Hall, while CBS scrambled to bleep the audio on the live telecast.
