Cold Anger does not gloat; a central tenet is to absorb consistent vilification and ridicule as fuel.Read more here.
The productive and polite life continues, but the larger notations necessarily remain. Keen awareness and acceptance of the surroundings is a trait of those carrying Cold Anger.
Deliberate intent and prudence ensures avoiding failure. The course, is thoughtful vigilance; a strategy essentially devoid of emotion, hence ‘Cold’.
...Cold Anger perceives deception the way a long-term battered spouse absorbs the blow in the hours prior to the pre-planned exit; with purpose.
This blog is looking for wisdom, to have and to share. It is also looking for other rare character traits like good humor, courage, and honor. It is not an easy road, because all of us fall short. But God is love, forgiveness and grace. Those who believe in Him and repent of their sins have the promise of His Holy Spirit to guide us and show us the Way.

Cold anger
Sundance responds to the media with a post on cold anger. Some excerpts:
Economic national security
Sundance is busy at The Conservative Treehouse. One of his posts is, as often is the case, about economics.
...Most are not aware that in reality, Steven Mnuchin has more control over economic national security than Secretary of Defense General Mattis has over military national security. Both Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Defense Secretary Mattis are more reliant on Mnuchin than any other cabinet member.Read more here.
No-one ever fully understood the national security trade leverage, apart from economic sanctions aspect, other than businessman Donald Trump, then candidate Donald Trump, and now President Donald Trump. His economic views/policies are specifically and intensely focused on America’s interests first. Hence, MAGA.
Team Trump (Mnuchin, Ross, Lighthizer, Tillerson etc) are using every angle and point of leverage to unraveling decades of global tentacles undermining our economy. [EXPLAINED HERE] Every single Trump policy is connected to economic security.
As we are seeing in action, the energy sector is the first beneficiary. This makes sense because it underlines all other manufacturing advantages. However, all other manufacturing sectors of a revitalized U.S. industrial economy will also benefit over time as the policies are actualized.
When even Hollywood loved America
hat tip The Conservative Treehouse, where Sundance writes,
Usually we humans can’t adequately find words to express our own sentiments, let alone those of a nation and successive generations to come, but Jefferson and that Continental Congress did just that.
The words have stood throughout several centuries as a clarion call for freedom, for breaking free of tyranny, for men to put aside their individual causes and join together to battle for the right of every man, woman and child together to become a people united in goal and resolve.
Today as we celebrate, today as we pledge allegiance to a flag that has gone from 13 stars to 50, may we remember not only the sacrifice, but the resolve. May we honor not only the words, but the unity and deeds of our forefathers. May each of us dig deep into our hearts and work out our differences for the betterment of our nation and our children and grandchildren.

The Gettysburg Address
Gerard Vanderleun has published a thoughtful piece at American Digest abut the Gettysburg Address. Read it here.
"When red lines mean something, peace through strength is possible."
Chris Plante is a talk radio host in the Washington DC area. After reading about him at PJ Media, I decided to give him a listen.
"No editors, no peace!" That is what New York Times copy editors chanted last week during a walkout to protest coming layoffs. Chris said, "They get so much stuff wrong, it is amazing that these people think they should keep their jobs!."
Chris wishes President Trump could tweet more about his accomplishments and less about people who are ridiculing him in the media. Last week Trump actually had a steady stream of accomplishments. Kate's Law and No Sanctuary for Criminals both passed the House. Syria was getting ready to do another chemical weapons attack, and Trump said, "Don't do it!" When red lines mean something, peace through strength is possible. NATO countries are beginning to pony up for their defense.
Trump also had a couple of victories in the Supreme Court, where Justice Gorsuch is doing just fine.
Joe and Mika have been preening with all the attention. Mika has her recently altered chin held high.
The "Bezos Post gave Trump three pinnochios for telling the 100% truth about Medicaid funding, which will, in fact, continue to increase in the new health care bill.
Trump anti-woman? No, but he is anti-Mika.

Death by socialism
At The American Thinker, Eileen F. Toplansky writes about the case of Charlie Gard, whose parents have raised enough money to bring him to America in an air ambulance for experimental treatment, but the UK government will not allow them to take him out of the hospital. Eileen goes on to site similar situations in other socialist countries here.
"Free and independent states"
Scott Ott reads our Declaration of Independence here.
"With a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor."
Her majesty needed a much bigger staff
Does this surprise you? Jim Geraghty reports at The Corner,
Read more here.
“There are five staffers dedicated to Melania Trump vs. 24 staffers who served Michelle Obama (FY2009).”
On Friday, the Trump administration released its annual report on White House office personnel, disclosing the name, salary, and position title of all 377 White House employees. OpenTheBooks.com, a private organization that tracks government spending, calculates that the Trump White House is costing taxpayers $5 million less, and employing 110 fewer staffers than the Obama White House in 2015.

A real journalist
"We (in journalism) have become conduits and tools to advance the smears of the influencers who put narratives out.
"PR firms sit down with reporters and hand them the research. The reporters don't even try to find out who is behind it."
"Democrats, Republicans and the media are colluding together to fight Trump in any way possible. This includes fake social media accounts. There is now software that the government uses, as well as private interests, that can maintain 20 social media accounts that look like they are from different people but they are being operated by one actor."

Restore the middle class!
Tucker wishes Trump would learn to ignore the media when they ridicule him and try to push him away from what he was elected to do. What was he elected to do?
Secure the border
Keep America out of pointless wars
Replace Obamacare with a system that expands affordable coverage for the middle class
Bring jobs to the heartland
Push back against the vultures on Wall Street

"You can be a dishonest plumber and still be pretty good with a wrench, but you can't be a liar and a journalist!"
The Greg Gutfeld Show is a good place to go to have some fun with the "news" stories of each week. Greg always has some witty things to say. I also am a fan of Greg's sidekick, pro wrestler Tyrus. Greg always has a couple of witty panelists, as he does in this video with comedian Joe Devito and Amy Holmes.
Greg says Trump is us on vacation!
Of course the hot item this week was Trump's tweet about Mika and Joe, who, according to Greg, saved two other people's lives by hooking up! Greg said it is unfortunate that Trump turned "that pretentious pair into victims, when all they do is snipe at other people. Amy thought Trump diminished himself, while elevating his enemies.
Then, Greg played video of Joe Scarborough on the radio saying, "Have you seen Fred Thompson's wife? Do you think she works the pole?" Tyrus said, "and with that, Donald Trump is off the hook!"
Joe Devito says this about journalism: "You can be a dishonest plumber and still be pretty good with a wrench, but you can't be a liar and a journalist!"
In the panel discussion about the border wall, Joe said, "We should make it the most annoyingly environmentally friendly wall of all time!"
