With President Donald Trump back in office, the constant protests from liberals who apparently have nothing better to do are also back. And they are already being coddled by Los Angeles Democrats.

Much has been made of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) pumping their pruney fists and chanting “we will win!” at their rally outside the Treasury Department on Tuesday.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s meeting with President Donald Trump, the first post-inaugural White House visit by a foreign leader, could shape the Middle East for generations. Pre-meeting speculation centered on how the leaders would handle the Hamas-Israel war.
