trump (120)

BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 520, July 6, 2017

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The July 2015-February 2017 interviews with Vladimir Putin by US filmmaker Oliver Stone, now streaming on Showtime, provide surprising insights into the mind of the Russian leader. “We like President Trump,” Putin admits, recalling that during the election campaign Trump was open to a new relationship with Moscow. Further progress was stalled by Russo-gate. Trump should not buy Putin’s reasons for his Ukrainian and Syrian interventions, but would be wise to be open to renewing a limited partnership with Russia against Islamic terrorism and Pyongyang’s rogue regime. 

2016 Russo-gate and 2012 America-gate

President Trump must remind the Russian leader that his election intervention denials have been exposed as false, as US intelligence was able to record his June 2016 orders to hack Hillary Clinton’s emails. However, he should also address Putin’s charges that twice – during the 2000 and particularly the 2012 Russian elections – Washington aggressively rallied the opposition and funded anti-Putin events. Putin also accuses US diplomats of supporting, controlling, and funding NGOs seeking to influence the outcome of elections. He thus implies that his interference in the 2016 US elections was payback of sorts.

“Dostoevsky character”

Henry Kissinger has described Putin as a “cold calculator of Russia’s national interest” and a “Dostoevsky character.” Indeed, much like Dostoevsky, the Russian president underwent a Kafkaesque metamorphosis from young, progressive revolutionary to conservative thinker and fierce defender of empire and orthodoxy. Stone makes clear, however, that he does not know what to make of Putin’s repeated references to God or his stance as defender of the Orthodox faith, which the Russian leader addresses when he takes him into his private chapel at his dacha.

In fact, Putin has genuinely embraced God, Russian orthodoxy, nationalism, and patriotism – but is humble about it. “I didn’t make the church popular … it was done by the Russian people,” he says. “The communist ideology ceased to exist and there was an ideological vacuum. The vacuum could be filled by nothing else but religion.”

Repudiation of chaotic Gorbachev-Yeltsin reforms

After the 1989 East German revolution, Putin, based in Dresden as a KGB lieutenant colonel, returned to his native city, St. Petersburg. At that time, Moscow maverick Boris Yeltsin and Putin’s former law professor, Anatoly Sobchak, were unleashing revolution from below in the form of free elections and economic reforms. Putin helped Sobchak become the city’s mayor and served as his deputy for foreign economic relations. He can thus raise a glass with Trump on the common ground of economics, investment, and trade. (It will have to be a non-alcoholic toast, as neither of them drinks.)

During the August 1991 coup, Putin joined Yeltsin and Sobchak in fighting the Communist putschists and resigned from the KGB. “I didn’t agree with the actions undertaken by the Communists in the attempted coup against Gorbachev,” he says. Moving to Moscow in 1996, he worked for Yeltsin in his legal department, finally becoming head of the FSB, the KGB’s successor. When Yeltsin became ill, he appointed Putin, known for his hard work and loyalty, as prime minister and then as acting president. “In four years I was acting president,” Putin recalls. It was “an incredible story.”

Eventually Putin concluded, however, that privatization and the transformation of Russia to capitalism under Yeltsin were too chaotic. Thus, he came to preside over state capitalism and a highly controlled market economic system. Trump should not be confused by Putin’s skillful selling of Russia as a genuine democracy. It is not.

“Russia should think about joining NATO”

An important issue covered in Stone’s interviews is how the new Cold War began. “In the 1990s,” Putin says, “we assumed the Cold War was over.” He recalls half-jokingly telling President Bill Clinton that “Russia should think about joining NATO.” Clinton responded, “Why not? I think it’s possible.” But when Clinton brought up the idea with his team, “They were bewildered and frightened.” Putin himself began to have misgivings. He ultimately concluded that “There are only two opinions in NATO: the American opinion and the wrong opinion.”

Nevertheless, Trump should explore closer cooperation between Moscow and NATO. Can the partnership with Russia that prevailed during the early George W. Bush years in Afghanistan be restored? And if so, how?

Against regime change

The above question must begin with an examination of American follies in Iraq, Libya, and Syria. Like Trump, Putin did not agree with the US intervention in Iraq. “We had exact data there were no WMDs whatsoever in Iraq,” he says. “The most depressing thing is to change the regimes in that part of the world with the hope the next day there will be American-style democracy.”

Americans were happy when the Libyan dictator was killed in 2011, but, as in Iraq, the war in that country became a catastrophe. Before Qaddafi’s death, there were few terrorists in Libya – but they came in as US-armed rebels, some of whom were jihadists, gained control of the country. Something similar could have happened in Syria, but the 2015 Kremlin intervention saved Assad from Qaddafi’s fate.

Putin, McCain, and “Carthago delenda est”

John McCain will be shocked if he watches the Stone interviews. Putin reveals another side of his character when he professes to like the perennial hawk. “I like him because of his patriotism, and I can relate to his consistencies in his own fighting for the interests of his country.”

Putin cites the motto of Marcus Porcius Cato, the elder of ancient Rome: “Cartego delenda est [Carthage must be destroyed].” The wars between Rome and Carthage, he explains, were exploited by barbarians who took advantage of the feud and eventually succeeded in destroying RomeThe lesson? “If these cities had not fought one another and had agreed on fighting a common enemy … they would have both survived.”

By citing history in this way, Putin again makes the case for a new partnership with America. “We’ve been supporting the US fight for independence. We were allies in WWI and WWII,” he says. “Right now there are common threats we are both facing like international terrorism [the modern barbarians].”

Why Putin didn’t conclude a 2016 Syria agreement with Obama

The agreement on Syria with the Obama administration was that the two powers were supposed to perform strikes jointly there on designated terrorist targets. Putin blames the US for giving up on the agreement for political reasons. He also maintains that Moscow held discussions with the Obama administration on resolving the Syrian crisis, only to conclude in October 2016 that time had run out. The Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs would talk instead to the incoming US administration.

The “art of the deal” on Ukraine

Trump should not take seriously Putin’s explanation that the intervention in Georgia happened simply because of the aggressiveness of Georgian leader Saakashvili . This is only part of the story. Nor should he buy Putin’s convoluted expositions on the conflicts in Crimea and eastern Ukraine, both of which began with Russian military intervention. Trump should lift western sanctions only if Putin volunteers to withdraw his forces from Ukraine and to recognize its territorial integrity and neutrality.

On Israel and the Jews

Putin is perhaps the first Russian leader in history who is not anti-Semitic. He knows that some 40% of Israel’s Jews or their ancestors hail from Russia. He compares the initiators of Russo-gate to anti-Semites who always blame the Jews for their own failures. He clearly does not support the Palestinians, recalling former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s words: “Mr. President, right now you are in a region where no one can ever be trusted on any matter.”

For Trump it is America First. For Putin, it is Russia First

The crescendo of the interviews comes when Stone argues that he himself ineither pro-American nor pro-Russian; he is pro-peace. Putin lectures the Hollywood leftist, “…You’re a man of peace. And I am pro-Russian … You are too anti-American, and I don’t want to be dragged into it.” Clearly this is a message for Trump that Putin understands his strategy of “America First.” Trump defends his country’s vital national interests, and so does Putin. Russia First! The art of the deal is to reconcile the interests the two powers have in common. This will not be easy.

The North Korean crisis makes partnership with Russia a necessity

Putin does not reveal the details of his phone conversations with Trump on North Korea, which launched its first ICBM on America’s Independence Day. This move will likely be met by a strong, perhaps military, response by the US. But no matter what response Trump chooses, he will need Beijing’s and Moscow’s strong cooperation on both North Korea and Syria.

Trump should use his skills at the art of deal-making to end the new Cold War with Putin. America and Russia need each other.

This time around, Washington, DC HealthCare legislation is for the Republican Party to repeal and replace ObamaCare as promised in previous elections.  Enact a new family based HealthCare policy.

President Trump should insist GOP leaders to especially allow Capitol Hill Conservative Republicans, to have political input on a new HealthCare plan.  This HealthCare presentation is the equivalent of a national ‘Republican Primary’ election.

A national TV ‘PRIMETIME’ debate with Sen. Ted Cruz’s HealthCare plan v. the Senate and House versions of our Moderate Capito Hill GOP leaders should be debated.  Americans and specifically Conservative Republicans deserve to be allowed to see these plans.

Moderate Capitol Hill Republican Party leaders should not refuse Sen. Ted Cruz’s ‘Repeal and Replace’ of ObamaCare?  Why should or would a few leaders’ members of the Capitol Hill GOP disallow Conservative GOP leaders to participate in legislation of ‘Repeal and Replace’ of ObamaCare as promised to ‘We the People’?

President Trump, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan should offer a national TV ‘debate’ in ‘PRIMETIME’.  Allow Americans, and especially Conservative Republicans, to have input.  This new legislation may represent a ‘shining star’ for the GOP for generations to come.

A few Capitol Hill GOP Moderate leaders should not be making all decisions, behind closed doors, as to who may participate, and what will be allowed to vote on the floor of the Senate and House.

““Currently, for a variety of reasons, we are not ready to vote for this bill, but we are open to negotiation and obtaining more information before it is brought to the floor," Cruz said in a joint statement with U.S. Sens. Rand Paul of Kentucky, Mike Lee of Utah and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin.” 

Why does the Moderate Capitol Hill Republican Party leaders refuse to either offer Sen. Ted Cruz’s ‘Repeal and Replace’ of ObamaCare?

Americans deserve better.  President Trump, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan should offer for a TV ‘debate’ in ‘PRIMETIME’.  Allow Americans to have input.  A few GOP Moderate leaders, behind closed doors, should not be making the decision as to what will be allowed on to vote in the Senate and/or in the House.

You may remember it was Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell who allowed the so-called Ominous Budget 2015 to be voted on, and whereas Sen. Mitch McConnell cut a ‘hidden’ financial deal with President Obama and Democrat Senate Majority Leader, Harry M. Reid for Kentucky to get millions of dollars for himself; over the entire American budgetary system.

Democrats fishing in a dry pond

Every day, Democrats are attacking President Donald Trump, and his nominees.

President Donald Trump and his administration are restoring Constitutional freedoms based on Judeo-Christian values. 

Democrats claim erroneous charges against Republicans, without supportive evidence. On these issues, Democrats are losing. 

The Democrat Party is deteriorating.  During President Obama’s term, Democrats suffered a net loss of 1,042 state and federal Democratic posts; congressional and state legislative seats, governorships, and the presidency. 

The Democrat Party supports big government, more regulations, more taxes, and illegal immigration.  Democrats choose Socialism; provide everything to everyone, at any time. 

Democrats dislike President Trump.  History illustrates Americans are shifting their politics toward Republicans of smaller government, less regulation, less taxes, and legal immigration.  The National Debt must be reduced. 

During President Obama’s term in office, Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats did change America; absent from ‘ALL’ earlier Presidents combined. 

Democrats should join in.  Democrats are failing to find illegal activity, with supportive evidence, against Republicans. 

Democrats must clean up their own deceit before searching the GOP.  These GOP ponds are near dry and without corruption. 

Democrats should direct their politics joining President Trump’s ‘Make America Great Again’.

4064372495?profile=originalMEGYN KELLY RETURNS - UNDRESSED TO IMPRESS

 

                                                                                     By

     

                                                                       Daniel John Sobieski

 

Former Fox News star and now NBC darling Megyn Kelly has a new show starting June 4 on the peacock network, appropriately nicknamed considering the prima donna status of its new centerfold, er, centerpiece of  NBC. Fpr her first show, she interviewed Russian President Vladimir Putin at an international economic forum in St. Petersburg. NBC released a publicity photo of her sitting with Putin and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.  Her attire seemed somewhat inappropriate for a past victim of sexual harassment and a self-proclaimed opponent of sexism in politics and the workplace. As Kristinn Taylor noted at Gateway Pundit:

NBC News starlet Megyn Kelly dressed like a hooker for her interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin that is scheduled to air on Sunday. A publicity photo shows Kelly interviewing Putin while wearing a low-cut, off the shoulder blue velvet dress that is slit to mid-thigh, accented by black open-toe shoes with stiletto heels.

Kelly has posed, no pun intended, as a champion of empowered women an opponent of a culture which objectifies women in and out of the workplace.  Yet, like Hillary Clinton, who rode her husband’s coattails to political prominence, Kelly has shown no reluctance to put her feminist mindset aside for the sake of her career. Some may know of her claims of harassment from former Fox News chief Roger Ailes, but maybe not that she kept it hidden from public view until shescould use it to sell her book, “Settle For More”. As Kate Scanlon wrote last November on The Blaze:

Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly said Tuesday that she did not come forward sooner with allegations that former Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes sexually harassed her because it would have been a “suicide mission” for her career.

During an interview on ABC’s “Good Morning America” about her new book, “Settle for More,” Kelly said that in the beginning of her career at Fox News Ailes tried to kiss her three times in his office and that when she rejected his advances “he asked me when my contract was up”…

Kelly called Ailes’ actions “disturbing” but said she didn’t immediately come forward because “realistically, that would have been a suicide mission for me and my career.”

“I wasn’t Megyn Kelly of today. I had no power, and he was on the cover of industry magazines as the most powerful man in news,” she said. “There was no one to go to.”

 Well, the Megyn Kelly of today remains the same opportunist she was then. Certainly the first GOP presidential debate on August 6, 2016 was an opportunity she wouldn’t let pass her by. Her question, directed at Donald Trump was incendiary and provocative and, in retrospect, a bit hypocritical:  

KELLY: Mr. Trump, one of the things people love about you is you speak your mind and you don't use a politician's filter. However, that is not without its downsides, in particular, when it comes to women.

You've called women you don't like "fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals."

(LAUGHTER)

Your Twitter account...

TRUMP: Only Rosie O'Donnell.

(LAUGHTER)

KELLY: No, it wasn't.

(APPLAUSE)

Your Twitter account...

(APPLAUSE)

TRUMP: Thank you.

KELLY: For the record, it was well beyond Rosie O'Donnell.

TRUMP: Yes, I'm sure it was.

KELLY: Your Twitter account has several disparaging comments about women's looks. You once told a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice it would be a pretty picture to see her on her knees. Does that sound to you like the temperament of a man we should elect as president, and how will you answer the charge from Hillary Clinton, who was likely to be the Democratic nominee, that you are part of the war on women?

Kelly’s concern about demeaning women and insisting they be treated with respect doesn’t jive with an interview with Howard Stern, famous for asking women guests “are those real”, in 2010, when she was also not the Megyn Kelly she is today.  Then, one supposes, it was okay to talk about breast and penis size with the world’s most famous pervert.

Then there is the famous GQ photo shoot for that magazine’s December, 2010 issue in which the rising Fox News star poses provocatively in lingerie, an odd occurrence for someone who would later pompously condemn the objectification of women, except when used to advance her career. Trump would bring this up after the deabate. As Politico reported:

Donald Trump continued his onslaught on Fox News host Megyn Kelly on Thursday, retweeting a follower who criticized a photo shoot she did for GQ Magazine.

“And this is the bimbo that’s asking presidential questions?”, the tweet said. It included two photos of Kelly posing provocatively and the following text: “Criticizes Trump for objectifying women ... Poses like this in GQ Magazine.”

A fare question one would think. After that debate viewers noticed the change in Kelly’s persona from the wholesome girl-next-door look to one more appropriate for a more sophisticated image. As journalist Peter Barry Chowka observed:

Throughout 2016, Kelly had been increasingly criticized but not only for her apparent hostility to Trump. She appeared to be focusing and reporting increasingly and obsessively on herself and changing her appearance and persona from a smart, girl-next-door type to a cold and calculating feminist icon-wannabe. In a July 19, 2016 article at Breitbart, Matthew Boyle quotes a “top Fox News host:”

“If Fox wants to become the ‘all about Megyn Network,’ that’s fine. We stand with Roger [Ailes]. And real anger has emerged that the so-called Megyn incident [alleged sexual harassment by Ailes] happened 10 years ago. The consensus among the hosts and contributors is: ‘Why didn’t she say anything then? Really, the same woman that posed half naked in GQ? The same woman on Howard Stern saying what?’”

While Kelly was attacking Trump, she ignored the resurrection of talk about Hillary Clinton being an enabler of her husband’s extra-marital activities at the same time the anti-Trump media was hyping the “Access Hollywood” tape in which Trump engaged in dirty talk about women. Newt Gingrich confronted Kelly about her double standard in a segment on “The Kelly File”: 

The exchange, as reported by the New York Times, went as follows, with Kelly arguing that Trump’s dirty talk in a trailer was worse than Bill Clinton’s turning of the Arkansas governor’s mansion and the Oval Office into a personal Playboy penthouse:

“You are fascinated with sex and you don’t care about public policy,” he told Ms. Kelly.

Ms. Kelly: “Me? Really?”

Mr. Gingrich: “That’s what I get out of watching you tonight.”

Ms. Kelly: “You know what Mr. Speaker, I’m not fascinated by sex, but I am fascinated by the protection of women and understanding what we’re getting in the Oval Office and I think the American voters would like to know …”

Mr. Gingrich then began to talk about how Mrs. Clinton’s husband, former President Bill Clinton, would return to the White House “because you, after all, are worried about sexual predators,” an apparent allusion to Mr. Clinton’s affair with a White House intern, Monica Lewinsky.

“Listen, it’s not about me. It’s about the women and men of America,” Ms. Kelly replied. She said polls showed that voters were concerned about the allegations against Mr. Trump and believed they were an issue.

As the interview progressed, Mr. Gingrich turned to baiting Ms. Kelly.

“Do you want to comment on whether the Clinton ticket has a relationship to a sexual predator?” Mr. Gingrich said, adding: “I just want to hear you use the words, ‘Bill Clinton, sexual predator.’ I dare you. Say, ‘Bill Clinton, sexual predator.’”

Kelly did not call and has not called Bill Clinton what he in fact was, a sexual predator, insisting instead that the Clinton assaults on women had been covered by her and others and wishing Gingrich well on attending to his “anger issues.”

Kelly, in a sparring contest with Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway essentially called Juanita Broaddrick, who along with other Bill Clinton victims, had resurfaced during the 2015 campaign, a liar: 

Megyn Kelly claimed that Clinton rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick denied any rape in a 1998 affidavit. Close, but no cigar, Megyn. The story is a little more complicated than that. It was not that her story was false as Megyn Kelly implied. Like many rape victims, Broaddrick felt no one would believe her and she simply wanted to put it behind her and not be forced to relive it, particularly in any legal setting: she resisted interviews, fearing no one would believe her charge against a popular President. …

Broaddrick feared the retaliation of Team Clinton as well as the glare of a disbelieving media. Thus she signed an affidavit denying the rape, again trying to avoid being forced to relive the horrible experience. But she told Starr and his office the affidavit was false. Starr didn’t pursue the rape story not because it was false, but because it was not part of his obstruction of justice investigation.

At the Trump press conference, Broaddrick, tired of being accused of being part of a vast right-wing conspiracy, and afraid that her attacker would once again occupy the White House with the woman who orchestrated the attacks on Bill Clinton’s “bimbo eruptions”, repeated her accusation:

“Actions speak louder than words,” Broaddrick said. “Mr. Trump may have said some bad words but Bill Clinton raped me and Hillary Clinton threatened me. I don’t think there’s any comparison.”

Megyn Kelly may or may not succeed in her new endeavor, but she is sure to be sufficiently provocative in her appearance as she was in her GQ shoot and Putin interview. As for the war on women and their objectification, she will say and do whatever is needed to advance her career.

DID BRENNAN COLLUDE WITH FOREIGN SPIES TO HELP HILLARY?

 

                                                                                     By

     

                                                                       Daniel John Sobieski

 

John Brennan defended his thesis that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump win before the Hoiuse Intelligence Committee. He did nothing to disabuse Congressional Democrats or the mainstream media of the notion that Team Trump colluded with Moscow to change the results of the 2016 election.

Brennan  didn’t explain why he thought that the Russians didn’t want Hillary Clinton to win. Perhaps Clapper could explain why they didn’t prefer Hillary who was Secretary of State when President Obama let Russia violate the INF Missile Treaty and colluded with the Russians to kill missile defense in Europe, telling Then Russian President Dimitri Medvedev to tell Putin he would have more “flexibility” after his reelection.

Clapper didn’t explain why he the Russians didn’t prefer Hillary, Secretary of State for an administration that did nothing when Russia annexed Crimea and invaded Ukraine. Why wouldn’t the Russians want the Secretary of State who called murderous Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad a reformer and was there when President Obama drew the first of his “red lines” than did nothing to prevent the slaughter of 500,000 Syrians while giving Russia freerein in that country?

Why would Russia prefer Trump over Hillary after she and husband Bill brokered deals giving Russia and Putin 20 percent of our uranium supply to benefit  Clinton Foundation donors, including Canadian billionaire Frank Giustra.

As the New York Times reported, this mutual back-scratching gave Clinton donor Giustra control of a significant portion of the world’s uranium supply:

Late on Sept. 6, 2005, a private plane carrying the Canadian mining financier Frank Giustra touched down in Almaty, a ruggedly picturesque city in southeast Kazakhstan. Several hundred miles to the west a fortune awaited: highly coveted deposits of uranium that could fuel nuclear reactors around the world. And Mr. Giustra was in hot pursuit of an exclusive deal to tap them.

Unlike more established competitors, Mr. Giustra was a newcomer to uranium mining in Kazakhstan, a former Soviet republic. But what his fledgling company lacked in experience, it made up for in connections. Accompanying Mr. Giustra on his luxuriously appointed MD-87 jet that day was a former president of the United States, Bill Clinton….

Just months after the Kazakh pact was finalized, Mr. Clinton’s charitable foundation received its own windfall: a $31.3 million donation from Mr. Giustra that had remained a secret until he acknowledged it last month. The gift, combined with Mr. Giustra’s more recent and public pledge to give the William J. Clinton Foundation an additional $100 million, secured Mr. Giustra a place in Mr. Clinton’s inner circle, an exclusive club of wealthy entrepreneurs in which friendship with the former president has its privileges….

In February 2007, a company called Uranium One agreed to pay $3.1 billion to acquire UrAsia. Mr. Giustra, a director and major shareholder in UrAsia, would be paid $7.05 per share for a company that just two years earlier was trading at 10 cents per share.

Now isn’t that special. Both the Clintons and their donor made off handsomely. Uranium One, which was gradually taken over by the Russians, would later be involved in a curious deal involving Hillary Clinton when she was Secretary of State. As the New York Times reported:

At the heart of the tale are several men, leaders of the Canadian mining industry, who have been major donors to the charitable endeavors of former President Bill Clinton and his family. Members of that group built, financed and eventually sold off to the Russians a company that would become known as Uranium One.

Beyond mines in Kazakhstan that are among the most lucrative in the world, the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well….

Soon, Uranium One began to snap up companies with assets in the United States. In April 2007, it announced the purchase of a uranium mill in Utah and more than 38,000 acres of uranium exploration properties in four Western states, followed quickly by the acquisition of the Energy Metals Corporation and its uranium holdings in Wyoming, Texas and Utah.

So Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, along with husband Bill, in exchange for donations, gave nuclear power Russia and Putin control of 20 percent of the world’s uranium supply. Is that what Hillary Clinton meant by a “Russian reset”? Yet neither Congressional Democrats, who accuse Trump  of being too cozy with Moscow, nor their wholly owned subsidiary, the mainstream media, are eager to talk about the Clinton uranium deals with Russia.

Based on this assessment, Brennan is wrong that the Russians wanted Hillary to win. They may have hacked into the DNC emails, but they didn’t write them. They didn’t keep Hilary from campaigning in Wisconsin, or make her motivate Trump supporters by calling half of them “deplorable”, or cause ObamaCare premiums to spike weeks before the November election.

There is another scenario as equally plausible as the one saying Team Trump, and perhaps President Trump himself, colluded with the Russians. It is that John Brennan himself colluded with the Russians to help Hillary win to guarantee his continued tenure as CIA Director. It involves the infamous anti-Trump dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele, used by Brenan and others as a pretext for a Trump investigation bonanza.  As the American Spectator reported:

An article in the Guardian last week provides more confirmation that John Brennan was the American progenitor of political espionage aimed at defeating Donald Trump. One side did collude with foreign powers to tip the election — Hillary’s.

Seeking to retain his position as CIA director under Hillary, Brennan teamed up with British spies and Estonian spies to cripple Trump’s candidacy. He used their phony intelligence as a pretext for a multi-agency investigation into Trump, which led the FBI to probe a computer server connected to Trump Tower and gave cover to Susan Rice, among other Hillary supporters, to spy on Trump and his people….

The Guardian story is written in a style designed to flatter its sources (they are cast as high-minded whistleblowers), but the upshot of it is devastating for them, nonetheless, and explains why all the criminal leaks against Trump first originated in the British press. According to the story, Brennan got his anti-Trump tips primarily from British spies but also Estonian spies and others. The story confirms that the seed of the espionage into Trump was planted by Estonia. The BBC’s Paul Wood reported last year that the intelligence agency of an unnamed Baltic State had tipped Brennan off in April 2016 to a conversation purporting to show that the Kremlin was funneling cash into the Trump campaign.

Any other CIA director would have disregarded such a flaky tip, recognizing that Estonia was eager to see Trump lose (its officials had bought into Hillary’s propaganda that Trump was going to pull out of NATO and leave Baltic countries exposed to Putin). But Brennan opportunistically seized on it, as he later that summer seized on the half-baked intelligence of British spy agencies (also full of officials who wanted to see Trump lose).

The Guardian says that British spy head Robert Hannigan “passed material in summer 2016 to the CIA chief, John Brennan.” To ensure that these flaky tips leaked out, Brennan disseminated them on Capitol Hill. In August and September of 2016, he gave briefings to the “Gang of Eight” about them, which then turned up on the front page of the New York Times.

Could it be that Brennan himself is the leaker of classified information? There are reports suggesting he is and isn’t that what is going on in Washington these days – bogus investigations based on reports of collusion with the Russians and other shenanigans. Could that be any crazier than investigations triggered by the Steele dossier, a classic work of slanderous fiction? Two things we do know – that the only crime is the leaking of classified information to the newspapers to damage Donald Trump and that Brennan is wrong on ewho the Russians wanted to win.

Capitol Hill Democrats and the ‘Main-stream’ Medias are criticizing President Trump’s firing of FBI Director James Comey.  Most Americans are pleased with Comey’s dismissal.

 

  1. 1.    Evidence shows Hillary Clinton used her own person smartphones to communicate ‘TOP SECURITY’ information with; allowing war enemies, and all others, to know exactly what the American US Military was doing.

 

  1. 2.    Evidence shows Hillary Clinton destroyed or may have had the evidence destroying her personal smartphones used to communicate ‘TOP SECURITY’ information.

 

  1. 3.    Evidence shows Hillary Clinton destroyed or had the evidence destroyed of many thousands of E-mails associated with her government work as Secretary of State.

 

  1. 4.    Evidence shows Hillary Clinton shows that while enemy terrorists were on the way to Benghazi, Lydia.  Ambassador, Christopher Stevens and others were calling out for military assistance for their protection.  Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton denied this military backup support.

 

  1. 5.    Evidence shows that Ambassador, Christopher Stevens, State Information Officer Sean Smith, and Navy Seals Glen Doherty and Tyrone S. Woods most likely would have survived had Sec. Clinton provided the requested military support; that was waiting for State Department clearance to protect the Benghazi compound.

 

  1. 6.    Evidence shows Hillary Clinton with her husband, former President Bill Clinton may have used a quid pro quo system for otherwise, illegally covering huge personal donations.

 

Other questions must be answered.  Although Director James Comey stated he questioned Hillary Clinton in investigating her.  Director Comey, says he found no reason in seeking an indictment. 

 

Even worse, While Director Comey says he ‘NEVER’ questioned Hillary Clinton under oath. 

 

The exchange between Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) and Director Comey requires President Trump’s termination of Director Comey as draining of the swamp http://thefederalist.com/2016/07/07/watch-rep-trey-gowdy-rip-apart-fbi-director-james-comey-about-hillary-clinton/.

How blinding for Democrat Party leaders, other anti-Americans followers, ‘Main-steam’ Medias, and/or others who continue supporting additional Islamic immigration, their Quran, Sharia Law, and other anti-Christian teachings?   

Many left-wing teachings and other anti-Judeo-Christian instructions start from within the Department of Education.

Islamic Muslims’ doctrines consistently persist they will take over the world; destroying and killing Americans, Israelis, and other members of the Judeo-Christian communities.

It has become strenuous for ‘Main-steam’ Medias to ever identify these killers as Islamic Muslims.

Free loving Americans are enraged of seeing and hearing the beheading massacres created by Islamic Muslims; all around the world.  Democrat Party leaders and ‘Main-steam’ Medias report these atrocious crimes as rare radical Muslims.

The facts will prove differently: http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/.

America and the free world are at war with Islamic Muslims; and have been for hundreds of years.  Democrat leaders may be lining their own pockets with Islamic oil-rich nations’ money.

Democrat Party leaders and many members of the ‘Mail-stream’ Medias knowingly support terrorists with their words.  It is a matter of time before Islamic Muslims’ terrorisms arrival on (y)our streets and communities.

Those who depend on ‘Mail-stream’ Medias may be teaching more anti-Americans by reporting left-wing news versions, rather than Constitutional freedoms.    President Trump, and Capitol Hill’s GOP legislators are attempting to reverse these anti-American actions.

Supporters of the Democrat Party, ‘Main-steam’ Medias, and others in refusing to openly condemn Islamic Muslim terrorism, are supporting violence in the USA.

America needs some 2 or more added conservative Justices confirmed on the SCOTUS bench, and a ‘super-majority’ of  conservative members in both legislative branches on Capitol Hill.

Americans have become negligent in allowing our Founding Fathers more important issues to wither away; while the voters have slept in allowing these government changes.  For 2 examples:

1.    In our Legislative branch of government, our Founding Fathers established a balance between the Senate and the House. 

The US Senate was based on an entire state with 2 Senators (votes) representing each state, regardless of their numbers in their populations.

The US House branch (votes) of government was based on population, regardless of their geographic size of their states.

These states legislative balances of votes should have continued on down to each states Legislatures.

The legislatures did remain as a balance in votes until the SCOTUS’s REYNOLDS v. SIMS, (1964), decision under Chief Justice, Earl Warren. http://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supreme-court/377/533.html

SCOTUS’s decision ruled both branches of states’ governments must be represented by population; with the states Senates to increase their representation providing more votes in legislatures of towns and cities.

This SCOTUS decision removed the Founding Fathers balance of representation (votes) in the states’ legislatures; providing a favor toward more representation  (votes) in the more populous towns and cities and a denial and less representation (votes) to the more open rural areas with smaller  populations.

2.    Before the 1963 SCOTUS decision, all children heard a daily devotion in “public schools”.  With these “public schools” daily devotions, almost everyone in (y)our communities attended their “House of Worship”.

When SCOTUS “banned” the Bible teachings “ABINGTON SCHOOL DIST. v. SCHEMPP, 374 U.S. 203 (1963)” from the “public schools”, illegal drugs, guns, evil mindsets, and other threatening actions “entered” the humans’ criminal ideas that damage and/or destroy peoples’ souls. http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=us&vol=374&invol=203

This SCOTUS decision removed our 1st Amendment Constitutional freedoms based on Judeo-Christian values.  Today and since the 1963 SCOTUS decision, many Americans, parents and children alike, may fail to attend any House of Worship, read their Bible, and/or teach their children the word of ‘God’, on any regular basis.

The end results of not hearing and/or reading the ‘Holy Bible’ teachings leads many of (y)our children to reject the, otherwise, unknown Biblical instructions with ‘guidance of conscience’.  This backslide leads them into illegal drugs, guns, gangs, other illegal pursuit, and/or other immoral activity.  Without the ‘Holy Bible’ experiences, America is fighting an internal war in our own communities.

Our US Constitution is/was based on Christian values.  If you read the Founding Fathers’ authors and their writings, you will corroborate the Christian values are established by these creators.  Many Capitol Hill representatives and other unbelievers have infiltrated our political system by penetrating and damaging our Constitutional Judeo-Christian values.  As one separates his/her own life morals from Judeo-Christian values, his/her wisdoms also breaks away.  At those breaks, the saboteur becomes an obstructionist to our extended Judeo-Christian values.

Those legislative issues of balance and the Judeo-Christian values are treasured and should be restored.  SCOTUS can “right the wrong” but the success must obtain more solid supporting Conservatives on SCOTUS and a ‘super-majority’ of members in both Legislative branches on Capitol Hill.

There are more issues in need of reversing SCOTUS on other legislations, but this is a start.

"The foundation of national morality must be laid in private families." - John Adams

John 16:33 (KJV) These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

The Russian debacle part 1

Great interest has been shown in this alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians. I say alleged because this is a story that should have been gone months ago.  The intelligence agencies of this country have presented all parties with the basic intelligence that Russians attempt to influence the intelligence, but none that they succeeded nor of the collusion between the Trump administration and the Russian government.

The question on what they have presented to these committees is this. What exactly is this information that leads to this conclusion? The American people have not seen it because it is being hidden by the intelligence agencies. We keep hearing the 16 different agencies have agreed on the conclusion, and the sycophantic media has followed right along as if this was “settle science”.  And like climate change, the settled science is based on innuendo and rumors from “unnamed sources”

 But let’s just make one thing clear, there has been no evidence, NONE, that showed collusion between the present Trump administration and Russia. It is being used now and for as far into the future as possible to attempt to delegitimize our President and along with paid and planned for riots to sow the seeds of chaos. The New York Times, the BBC, and the Washington Post have all blared this fake collusion far and wide, and all the networks, even Fox start any conversation with “Russian hacking”. But where is the proof. Julian Assange of Wikileaks, the entity who is responsible for the dissemination of the DNC emails has said emphatically that it was not the Russians, but leaked from the inside. No one to this day has asked Assange for any information.

The involvement of the Obama administration with Russia as evidenced in the Uranium One deal was never investigated and neither was Bill Clintons enormous speaking fees. But then again it would have been investigated by the FBI, the same FBI that ignored Hillary Clinton’s treasonous use of a server, and the debacle of Benghazi.

And where was the media during all this? They we accumulating all the information they needed from Obamas intelligence agencies to use against Donald Trump. Since his last election, when he declared during one of his debates to Mitt Romney that the 80’s called and wanted their foreign policy back. Another brilliant move by our past Muslin-in-Chief.

Why is it that Putin invading Crimea and Ukraine did not set off a firestorm, but the hacking (or leaking) of Podesta’s emails and those from others in the DNC did. Could it be that the progressive/socialists running the DNC were finally shown for who they are?

So how did the FBI make a decision that it was Russian hackers that overran the DNC servers and make all this information available. Did they do forensics on the server? NO, the DNC wouldn’t allow thathe FBI, perhaps because of the administration in charge never pushed to do the job it was intended to do. It was based on the information provided by a company called CrowdStrike, a company that recently was caught setting up another Russian Hacking scheme by using false facts.

And what of the FISA courts? In October 2016, BEFORE the election, the Obama administration requested a warrant to target a computer server in Trump Tower. Even after no evidence was found, the wiretap continued. See (http://ufpnews.com/obamas-shadow-government-belongs-jail/).

There are a plethora of interesting aspects to this entire debacle. NSA Director Michael Rogers took part in the National Security Summit where Obama officially blamed Putin on October 8th 2016. On November 17th 2016 Rogers met with President-elect Trump in New York. The next day, the Washington Post reported that there was a “recommendation” from the NSA and the Pentagon that Admiral Rogers be removed from his position. The demand was made by Defense Secretary Ashton Carter and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper who had already lied to Congress about wiretapping of the citizens of this country.

There are hackers of unknown origin blackmailing Democrats to release the product of their illegal actions. There have been a great many Democratic Groups that have been hacked, including those non profit groups that are using grant money to cover the costs of anti-Trump protests along with funding from George Soros.

The DNC, which was the start of this, is a private organization and not in any way connected to the Government. Rather than focus on the information which was disseminated by Wikileaks and which no Democrat can deny, it laid bare the manipulation and outright lies that were used to assure that Hillary would get the nomination. The cacophony of the Democrats over the supposed “Russian meddling” is only because they got caught. So we got Obama sanctioning the Russians knowing full well there was no proof that the Russians had done anything, and not willing to admit that what came out through Wikileaks were just that, leaks from within the government. Blaming Russia and putting sanctions in place were to be used in an attempt to create a higher level of tension between Russia and the new administration and if they could be used to attempt to topple Trump, so much the better. This was accomplished by Obama signing an executive order to further expand the sharing of raw intelligence across all agencies before any classification was assigned.

The government has moved to vilify anyone connected to the Trump campaign. A memo relaeased claimed that Trump’s lawyer Michael Cohen had a “covert Relationship” with Russia. It stated  ” that Cohen’s wife is of Russian descent and her father a property developer in Moscow”. Michael Cohens wife is actually Ukrainian and has been in the United states since 1972. Cohen has proven he never made the trip that the memo describes, and has never been to Czechoslovakia or Russia. An intelligence hoax, why are not the intelligence committees looking for the source, perhaps because the source is within one of our own intelligence agencies.

So for now, I suppose we must continue to listen about Trumps “collusion” with the Russians, and continue to listen to Democrat sycophants like the Washington Post, the New York Times, CNN, and all the other fakestream media about how Trump is Hitle, how the Russians helped him win, Even thought it was Obama who spied on the Associated Press, James Rosen, Susan Attkinson and others, he would never go so far as to attempt to destroy the Trump Presidency.

And we will continue to have to listen to Maxine Waters, the icoherent senile loudmouth who has no basis in fact for calling for the impeachment of Trump, but like a broken record will continue to whine. Where were you Maxine when Benghazi happened, or the targeting of the IRS on conservative groups, or even fast and furious. It is these things that should show you why people don’t listen you do. Selective outrage is your only selling point, and it doesn’t sell to anyone with half a brain.

And we will have to keep watching on our TVs such people as Rep. Adam Shiff, with his serious, “we need to catch a criminal” face telling us that there are mountains of evidence that ties Trumps campaign to Russia. He even was so sure of his superior intellect that he tweeted to our President that no one disputed the fact but Presdient Trump. Bad news Adam, a lot of people know you are a partisan hack and were lying as you proved this morning on CNN. Where is your proof Adam, and where is the apology. And no, most of the country know you are a partisan hack. If you weren’t why aren’t you investigating the ties between the Russians and Hillary and the Clinton Foundation.

This whole debacle is nothing more that Democratic Saboteurs attempting to thwart the will of the people. The people will not be stopped, and if you continue your violence you will learn just how many patriots are tired of your “resistance” and will move things forward far more quickly than you can imagine.

It was June, 2014 at the Virginia State Convention when  conservatives ousted House Majority Leader, Eric Cantor from his US House GOP leadership.  There was a message delivered; however, most Capitol Hill leaders failed to catch on and continued to ignore it.

At that time, and even today, moderate GOP Washington leaders continue to reject ‘We the People’ on critical issues including stopping ‘illegal’ immigration, repeal ObamaCare, stop the ‘out-of-control’ deficit spending, and others.

Social Security recipients continue with near -$0- inflationary incomes for seniors’ while Capitol Hill legislators collect inflated incomes.

Republican Party Senators and Representatives make campaign promises to get their votes; then forget their promises after the elections.

‘We the People’ are becoming angry at those on Capitol Hill who are ignoring or forgetting promises as committed.

Capitol Hill Republican leaders are operating on the American Health Care Act Health Care, just like Democrat leaders did in year 2009 on ObamaCare, as they fail to provide details on the AHCA legislation before the votes are casts.

After faithful campaign promises to repeal ObamaCare, an overwhelming majority of Capitol Hill Republican legislators continue to follow Capitol Hill GOP leaders. These GOP leaders refuse to permit a vote on a cleaner and better AHCA legislation plan as offered by conservatives.

Capitol Hill GOP leaders continue to reject ‘We the Peoples’ ideas while supporting their own personal political agendas.

Would Rep. Paul Ryan set-up President Trump on the American Health Care Act?  Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX-1) says the proposed legislation is a lie.  “I think the President’s being set up for failure,” added Gohmert, “and I know people are anxious just to get this bill passed.”

Gohmert told TheBlaze., “I would love it if Democrats recognized that Obamacare was a problem and it caused them the loss of a majority and it caused them losses in statehouses all over the place. I would love for them to recognize that so we could repeal it in a bipartisan manner.”

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH-4) says, “Our job is to … do what we told the American people we were going to do when they gave us the privilege to serve, and this bill doesn’t do that. This bill doesn’t repeal Obamacare, and that fundamentally is why we’re opposed to it. And unless it changes I do not see the votes there to pass this legislation.

Former Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) of the Heritage Foundation says, “As a broad spectrum of conservative policy experts have been explaining for weeks, the House health care bill was a perfect marriage of bad policy, bad process and bad politics. Since the day it was introduced, this was presented as a false choice of this bill or nothing, and that strategy was proven very wrong.”

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) are conservatives, among others, who are offering alternate Health Care plans. 

Sen. Ted Cruz offers new legislation to repeal ObamaCare and pass a ‘TRUE’ conservative version of the ‘Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act’ for ‘We the People’.

Another idea is to merge the Veterans Administration Health Care into the Medicare Health Care system.  This would provide immediate, professional, and local services to our earned veterans.

Republicans must consider electing new fresh and honorable conservatives and their ideas representing ‘We the People’ and America in 2018.  2018 Primary Elections may be the year when Republicans clamp down on candidates who make promises; only in returning to Washington and ‘continue as the usual’.

It is imperative for Capitol Hill Republicans to become resolute in repealing ObamaCare and starting over with a new Health Care plan; perhaps, replace our Health Care System similar to the former Medicare and Medicaid Health Care system in protecting our citizens.

Capitol Hill majority leaders must invite conservatives in showing respect to ‘We the People’; who symbolize the conduit of the Republican Party.

President Trump, reverse 2 decisions

It appears President Donald Trump ‘MAY’ have made 2 ‘WRONG’ political decisions.

President Trump has made a remarkable number of ‘GREAT’ appointees; he should reverse 2 ‘HORRIBLE’ decisions.

1.    FBI Director, James Comey, may have concocted a cover-up plan protecting Hillary Clinton.  It also may turn out that Comey knew or should have known some US government agencies and/or foreign agencies as they may have been investigating 2016 GOP Presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Should it turn out that James Comes is failing to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, FBI Director Comey should also be investigated, prosecuted, and if convicted, serve an active sentence in prison.

2.    It appears President Trump may be covering up some potentially illegal activity by Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton.

This cover-up appeared to become more aware when newly inaugurated President Clinton praised former President Bill and former 2016 Democrat Party nominee, Hillary Clinton for her attendance to the Inaugural Dinner.  It is important to say only Donald Trump could have invited Bill and Hillary Clinton to this dinner.

If President Donald Trump and his administration allows Hillary Clinton to go free without an investigation, prosecution, conviction, and active sentence in prison, President Trump must justify his reasons.

With millions of dollars donated into the Clinton Foundation, and ‘AFTER’ Sec. of State, Hillary Clinton cut special deals with other governments, and if this turns out to be ‘Quid pro quo’, Hillary Clinton must go to jail and perhaps, former President Clinton, also.

Is President Trump just before allowing Sec. of State, Hillary Clinton to walk free after denying military assistance to protect our members of the US Embassy in Benghazi, Libya?

Is President Trump just before allowing Sec. of State, Hillary Clinton to walk free for her destruction of documents relevant to the freedoms of the USA?

We must hope President Trump and his administration will aggressively pursue Hillary Clinton, and again, President Bill Clinton, on their potentially, illegal activity.

Many American have suffered under the Obama administration.  Many Americans have lost their lives while USA taxpayers’ money being used to finance millions of dollars end up going to enemy nations and groups.

I performed my original song, "We Are Americans," at the Orlando March 4 Trump rally.  It felt like a family reunion, seeing patriots from the early days of the Tea Party movement – lots of hugs.  The mood of the rally was electric.  Everyone was happy, excited, and fired up about President Trump.

Trump March 4 Rally

To the fake news media and Obama, who think their orchestrated lying campaign to destroy Trump is working, I say, "Forget about it!  It ain't workin'!"

Trump-mania is alive and well, stronger than ever!

Vendors were selling Trump caps, t-shirts, and everything in between, including Trump welcome mats.  One elderly patriot adorned head to toe in red, white, and blue Trump paraphernalia told me she feared putting a Trump welcome mat outside her front door.  She said it is unfair that we cannot freely support our president without fear of attacks.

The emcee instructed all us speakers to stay close to the stage.  However, I knew there were a few speakers ahead of me on the program, so I wandered away into the crowd to chat with people.

A white gentleman shared with me his frustration trying to legally bring his foreign wife to the United States.  He said after battling incompetence, submitting a mountain of documents, and spending $18,000 thus far, his wife still has not been granted entry into the U.S.  We talked about the unfairness.  He is respecting and adhering to our immigration laws.  And yet Obama opened the floodgates to illegals, totally unvetted, gifting them government freebies unavailable to Americans.  I told the brother to hang in there.  Trump is cutting bureaucracy.

I met a white woman who is chair of a Republican Club.  She said they have been reaching out to blacks in a sincere attempt to add more diversity to their club.  She asked my advice.  I chuckled and said, "Good luck with that!"  I have been trying to get blacks to break their mindless loyalty to the Democrats for over a decade.  Still, I told the patriot sister to keep trying.  With God's help, suddenly mindsets can change.

I asked a young white kid around 14 years old about the unique flag he was waving: blue with a crescent moon and the word "liberty."  The kid was an encyclopedia regarding American flags, giving me the full history.  Blown away, I said, "You are way too smart for public school.  You have got to be homeschooled."  He replied, "Yes, sir."  I knew it.  In my years of touring the country on 14 Tea Party national bus tours, homeschooled kids were strikingly different: calmer, smarter, behaved, and well educated.  Leftists are at war with parents, trying to outlaw homeschooling.

Everyone was buzzing about Trump tweeting about Obama bugging Trump Tower before the election.  Enraged fake news, Democrats, and other leftists bash Trump for tweeting, declaring it un-presidential.  Clearly, Trump supporters, over 60 million Americans, love it.  They love Trump speaking directly to them, bypassing leftist operatives disguised as mainstream media.

An Asian female speaker addressing the crowd said it took her 35 years to become a legal U.S. citizen with the right to vote.  She expressed how proud she was to be an American.  The audience went nuts.  They loved her.

Representatives from Hispanics, women, and blacks for Trump spoke from the stage.  They were warmly and enthusiastically embraced by the crowd.  We were family, united in our love for our country, excited about President Trump and his agenda: putting America first and making her great again.  Such was the theme of the day.

I chatted with blacks at the rally to support Trump.  Interestingly, they were entrepreneurs.  It is funny how when you're a businessperson trying to achieve your American Dream, you are well aware of the roadblocks placed in your path by high taxes and the government's tyrannical, absurd regulations.

The biggest thing I noticed at the Orlando rally for Trump was the obvious political growth and political sophistication of the participants.  Back in the early days of the Tea Party movement, we were naive patriots.  We thought we were fighting only the socialist policies of a left-leaning president and the Democrats.

Today, we know our enemies: radical leftist Obama and his army of thugs; the fake news media; the corrupt Washington, D.C. political establishment (Republicans and Democrats); and NeverTrumps – united in their mission to destroy Trump's presidency.

We the People are politically well educated and well organized.  We are spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually locked and loaded, really for battle – really to support and defend our new president.

Please continue moving forward, Mr. President.  We the People have your back!

It was recently reported that Jesus Christ helped Trump win the White House and now they’re on a witch-hunt.  Though they don’t seem to be having much luck because the Holy Spirit comes and goes.  The only way they can receive a visit from the Holy Spirit is to confess their sins, and we all know that democrats are too perfect to admit any imperfections.  It was recently reported there was another sighting and move of God when President Trump was prayed for and it left the mainstream media in tears when he said God bless America!  Yes, the liberals are in chaotic fears, they’ve never seen a move of God like this before in America.  Our God with omnipresence, omniscience, omnipotence seems to be aware of the corruption in America and he’s not taking his protective hands off of President Trump. And the democrats are screeching and screaming that it’s not fair.  Stay tuned as we report more Holy Spirit sightings.  Breaking: It was also reported that the democrats have sent their minions to Israel to wait for the Holy Man to come off the cross.  They don’t realize he’s the same today as yesterday.

And forget about all the fake news.

Let me be so indelicate as to suggest that the issue is common sense simple – where you pee ought to be determined by what you pee with. Period. This nonsense about self-identifying as a woman so a man can use the same restroom as someone else’s daughter is just that - nonsense. Just as it is nonsense about the Almighty putting you in the wrong body. You might be confused, but God is not. Male and female He created them and I’m quite sure He knew the difference.

So it was welcome news that President Trump has revoked the Obama administrations “guidance” to educational institutions that requiring bathroom use based on birth gender and genitalia constitutes sex discrimination:

The Trump administration revoked an Obama-era mandate compelling public schools nationwide to permit restroom and locker room access on the basis of gender identity — a move that could have significant ramifications for a case before the Supreme Court concerning transgender rights.

The Departments of Education and Justice issued a joint guidance Wednesday evening rolling back the order. The two-page “Dear Colleague Letter” said the Obama administration had failed to substantiate the claim that Title IX’s prohibition on “sex” discrimination in education also applies to gender identity.

“In these circumstances, the Department of Education and the Department of Justice have decided to withdraw and rescind the above-referenced guidance documents in order to further and more completely consider the legal issues involved,” the order reads. “The Departments thus will not rely on the views expressed within them.”

The guidance also said the federal government must recognize “the primary role of the States and local school districts in establishing education policy.”

This nod to states rights as well as common sense is hopefully a sign that the federal government under President Trump is over using federal power to social engineer society along progressive and liberal lines. It is good news and legal ammunition for states that have resisted this absurd form of political correctness like North Carolina   

North Carolina rightly resisted the politically correct federal bully challenging its common sense law, HB 2, which says restrooms should be limited to people with the appropriate plumbing, and that cross dressers sharing the facilities with your daughter, wife, and daughter is not a good, or safe idea.

North Carolina filed a lawsuit challenging the Department of Justice’s ultimatum demanding that the state cease and desist enforcement of that law  As NBC News reported:

It was the state's response to the US Justice Department, which last week gave Gov. Pat McCrory until the end of the day Monday to respond to a letter that said the law violates federal civil rights statutes.

Monday's lawsuit called the Justice Department's legal position "a baseless and blatant overreach" and a radical reinterpretation of federal laws, especially the Civil Rights Act's ban on sex discrimination.

"Transgender status is not a protected class," under the law, the suit said, and if the Justice Department believes it should be, it should ask Congress to change the law.

Of course, reinterpretation of the law and bypassing Congress was nothing new for the Obama administration, which seems to think that saying that only biological females may use the ladies room is equivalent to having “whites only” drinking fountains. This is. of course, nonsense Rosa Parks made history by sitting in front of the bus. She did not try to use the men’s room at the bus station.

Being black is something you cannot change. Discriminating on that basis is wrong and perniciously evil. But saying a man’s civil right’s are being violated because he self-identifies as a woman and needs to use the ladies facilities is nonsense based on politically correct psycho-babble.  Sorry, dude, if you feel you are trapped in the wrong body, deal with. But you already have a restroom designed just for you.

You are not being denied equal access to a public accommodation. Having the wrong body, if that is to be believed, does not entitle you to use the wrong restroom. It was never the intent of the 1964 Civil Rights Act to allow boys to use the little girls room. It is also dangerous, allowing any creep to put on make-op and a dress and follow your daughter, sister, or wife into the restroom.

This was the same sort of nonsense that led the Supreme Court to ignore both federalism and state laws to say gay marriage was a civil right as much as interracial marriage was. But being black is something one cannot change and allowing blacks and whites to marry did not change the state, culturally, and historically sanctioned institution of marriage as a union between one man and one woman.

Transgender restrooms change everything. Amazingly the right to privacy championed by liberals has been jettisoned by liberals who see nothing wrong or dangerous in the concept. Kimberly Ross, writing for RedState, notes the slippery slope this puts society on:

The attack on gender norms has increased exponentially over the past few years, and will continue as biologically-assigned gender becomes offensive. Even large, middle-class retailers like Target have gotten on board with the trend to erase the fine lines which define male and female. Last August, Target began to remove gender-based signs. Earlier this year, they introduced a gender neutral home goods line, so kids won’t feel like they’re being pushed a specific direction. On the contrary, it is quite alright to encourage the traditional idea that boys should be boys and girls should be girls. In fact, we must…

The slippery slope to accepting everything begins by refusing to acknowledge that DNA is stubborn, and that who you were created to be is a not a mistake. If we never question transgenderism, though it battles against inherent norms, then we’ll begin put a stamp of approval on everything. As recently reported by The Independent, a criminal psychologist  announced online that pedophilia is a sexual orientation, like being gay or straight. While I’m not asserting that trans individuals are in any way child molesters, I do believe that promoting a delusional view of gender, and making rationalizations along the way, has led us to this point to where we must accept and never question anything..

Over a million signatures were gathered on a petition opposing Target’s gender neutral bathroom. These are not bigots but husband’s worried  about wives, parents worried about their children literally being exposed tp something they should not be forced to deal with.

As Todd Starnes writes at Fox News Opinion:

The nation’s second-largest discount retailer announced on April 19 that they would “welcome transgender team members and guests to use the restroom or fitting room facility that corresponds with their gender.”

In response, more than 1.1 million customers joined a boycott sponsored by the American Family Association.

“Nearly everyone has a mother, wife, daughter or friend who is put in jeopardy by this policy,” AFA President Tim Wildmon said. “Predators and voyeurs would take advantage of the policy to prey on those who are vulnerable.”

Breitbart.com compiled a short list from daily news accounts giving a preview of what will become the norm if PC restrooms are forced upon us. A few examples:

Palmdale man arrested for videotaping in women’s bathroom

PALMDALE – A 33-year-old Palmdale man who allegedly dressed as a woman while secretly videotaping females using a department store bathroom was charged with several misdemeanor counts Tuesday, authorities said. Jason Pomare was charged with six counts of unlawful use of a concealed camera for the purposes of sexual gratification, according to Sergeant Brian Hudson of the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department’s Special Victims Bureau.

Sexual predator jailed after claiming to be ‘transgender’ to assault women in shelterA biological man claiming to be ‘transgender’ so as to gain access to and prey on women at two Toronto shelters was jailed “indefinitely” last week after being declared by a judge a “dangerous offender.” Pro-family leaders are pointing out that this is exactly the type of incident they warned of as the Ontario government passed its “gender identity” bill, dubbed the “bathroom bill,” in 2012.

There will be sexual assaults among these incidents to be sure. No responsible parent lets their child use a public restroom without accompanying them. Free-for-all restrooms only make the vulnerable more so. Okay, not all transgendered people are predators. But when did surgically altering your body bestow upon anyone an alleged constitutional right to use another gender’s restroom.

The whole concept of someone being “trapped” in the wrong body is nonsense. Evangelical Christians and others  believe the Almighty does not make such mistakes. If someone is confused about their sexual identity, they should just drop their drawers and take a wild guess. It is ironic that liberals who insisted we stay out of the bedrooms of homosexuals and lesbians now insist transgendered people should not stay out of the wrong bathroom.

We are all equal but we are also different. Deal with it, liberals.

Fellow Americans we are at war. The anti-Donald Trump extremists present a danger to America, this growing movement of angry anti-Trump extremist are misinformed by the establishment and the corporate news media; in fact, anti-Trump extremist are targeting Donald Trump supporters, boycott business and praying in our constitutional rights, our Democratic system and the rule of law. Their demands and their ill understanding of American law and order, void the laws that we have in our communities and our country. Free speech does not include fake news, deception and lies and political demonstrations must not be a cover-up of criminal activities, destruction of private property, aggression, assault and the promotion of hate and domestic terrorism. We voted for Donald Trump because we are fed-up with the Washington corrupt establishment; it is the will of the people to stop corruption in our government and expose the corporate news media the propaganda machinery of the establishment. 

Our enemy is the Washington establishment; the Washington establishment is a shadow group that work in Collusion with the corporate news media, some members of our congress, the senate, some especial interest organizations and some rich private individuals, who are exercising a huge power behind the scenes; they are the forces that select and promote the candidates to be place in office so they be the subservient to the shadow government who are in fact the true executive power that control our country.

Fellow Americans, we are the solution. The President of our country Donald Trump, must not be deprived of his historic position as spokesman for the nation in its relations with other countries. We elected him to represent the people of the United States; we must stop the network of hate; “the corporate news media the propaganda machinery” that is turning Americans against each other and causing this division that will help them with their agenda of globalization and the exploitation of the American working class by their neo-liberalism policies.  If we fail to expose the corporate news media propaganda of hate and misinformation, our country will be demise by the Washington establishment, they are beyond the scrutiny of our democratic institutions, because the officials elected members of our government are subservient to the shadow government that has declare war against Donald Trump and the American people.

The question is; who is worse the criminal’s members of the Washington establishment or the ones that know the truth and fail to inform the people of this country.

A free press that fail to report the true is a propaganda system that must be expose as a danger to the people’s right to know the truth.  The most importance element of information in a true Democracy are; freedom of speech and a free press that report the true.

Executive Orders Are Normal

https://theintercept.com/2017/01/26/executive-orders-are-normal-trumps-are-only-appalling-because-of-what-they-say/

We must ask and question the following:

1-     Why they want to promote free trade and globalization.

2-     Who benefit from the free trade policies? corporations or the working people.

3-     Why millions of US factories closed in the last 30 years.

4-     Why they deceive us and start the Middle east wars.

5-     Why our government cover-up the truth about 9/11

6-     Why the news media fail to report the truth about the Middle East wars

7-     Why the news media fail to report the truth about the Clinton’s history of corruption?

8-     Why the news media hate Donald Trump and report disinformation and lies about Donald Trump policies.

9-     Why the news media call Donald Trump racist for taking action on border security and immigration and illegal immigration policies?

10-  Why the news media is engaging in making Donald Trump’s executive orders ground for impeachment, while they were silent about Obama’s executive orders and mass deportation of illegal immigrants?

11-  Why the news media and our politicians said nothing about Obama’s huge expending budget deficits and increased of or national debt to 20 trillion Dollars.

12-  Why the news media fail to inform the people about our 600 billion dollars military expending per year while we have 60 million Americans living in poverty -  extreme poverty and millions of retire people in social security and army veterans are the forgotten Americans that no one cares about?

13-  Why the news media fail to inform the people about the ill policies of neo-liberalism that destroy the people right to negotiated for better working conditions and pay.

14-  Why the news media fail to inform the people about the ill impact of privatization of government agencies on the American taxpayers.

15-  Why the news media fail to report the truth about the collusion between the FDA and the drug industry, food processing corporation and their failure to protect the American consumer by proper labeling of GMO products.

16-  Why the news media fail to report the people about the collusion of Washington and corporate America to promote monopolies in our country to control the market and the news media.

17-  Why the news media fail to report the people that the family farming was replaced by industrial farming to produce GMO produce that are killing Americans    

Americas must realize that self-scrutiny is not treason. Self-examination is not disloyalty.

Seek the truth and let the people know. Truth and knowledge diffused among the people are necessary for the reclamation and preservation of our Democracy, rights, freedom and liberties.

WE THE PEOPLE ARE THE SOLUTION TO OUR PROBLEM.

We the people voted for Donald Trump because we are fed-up with this corrupt establishment, war monger’s pro-globalization that betray us and send our soldiers to die in the Middle East, under the pretense of fighting terrorism, Democracy, our country’s security and the best interest of the American people. But today we know the truth;  that this was a deception the invasion was to control the oil reserves of the Middle east and benefit the transnational corporation and the U.S. military complex.

We must end lies and deception propagandized by the corporate news media, be inform connect to the Alternative news media that report the truth and expose the corrupt corporate news media propaganda machinery promoters of hate in our country, we must never forget that we are a sovereign country with the right to protect our borders by any means and protect the security of the American people.

On a daily basis, ‘Main-stream’ Medias are reporting as Democrat Party legislators and/or our Judges in the Federal Courts are declaring more unconstitutional activity of President Trump and Capitol Hill Republicans depriving Democrats of their Constitutional ‘rights’.

4064291346?profile=original

Almost all of these falsified charges are from Capitol Hill Democrats, the NAACP, the Federal Judiciary, and their partners, ‘Main-stream’ Medias.  These groups are practicing an old story of; “If you tell 

a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.”  How sad for Democrat Party officials to operate!

The major problem is that a majority of the ‘Main-stream’ Medias have joined forces with now former President Obama and his left-wing anti-Constitutional misrepresentations, the Capitol Hill Democrat Party that has lost its Constitutional freedoms based on Judeo-Christian values, and has joined with the NAACP leadership, surprisingly that has shifted from being a Biblical group to an anti-Biblical assemblage as they follow the Democrat Party for what they ensue.

‘Main-stream’ Medias have lost the confidence of the American people.  The political polls will substantiate these facts.  ‘Main-stream’ Medias are having a hard time ingesting these facts.  The average Americans who watch or listen to the news have determined that most of the ‘Main-stream’ Medias are a distorted version of the truth.

Before the Obama administration came to power in January 2009, there was little to no activity on racial discrimination.  Most Americans got over racial discrimination; up to some 50 years ago.   Obama has wickedly, poured on the fuel to reopen the flames.  Obama’s administrations words and actions have fueled the flames of more protests, rioting, vandalism, looting, and burning private and public properties in their own communities. Additionally, The Obama administration increased our National Debt, without a national disaster or a major war, by $9.7 dollars; almost as much as all previous presidents put together. https://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/debt/search?startMonth=01&startDay=20&startYear=2009&endMonth=01&endDay=20&endYear=2017

There has been many left-wing Judges nominated and confirmed by the US Senate; many of whom were confirmed without proper study on previous history.

Today, Capitol Hill Democrats are doing anything to stop a Conservative movement led by President Donald Trump and in his Cabinet appointees and a SCOTUS confirmation.  Democrat Senators are voting almost unanimously ‘NO’ on each of President Trump’s nominees needed for Senate confirmation.

The November 2016 General Election proves that the distorted version of the ‘Main-stream’ Medias was rejected on many issues by the American electorate.  When will the ‘Main-stream’ Medias accept these facts?  When will the ‘Main-stream’ Medias eliminate all of their news reporters who chronicle fictitious reports?

Freedom of the Press in the First Amendment was inscribed in our Constitution to report the truth to the people as to what was legally or illegally happening in government and elsewhere.  ‘Main-stream’ Medias have no business reporting falsified stories as news facts, anywhere.

Democrats get on board in supporting America and our Constitutional freedoms based on Judeo-Christian values.

God Bless America!

Illegal immigrants seem to care for nothing other than they want to stay in  America; even as ‘ILLEGAL’ immigrants.

When I identify an ‘ILLEGAL’ immigrant, I am saying you are ‘ILLEGAL’ when you are not a citizen of the USA,  do not hold a ‘legal’ Green Card, etc.

When an ‘ILLEGAL’ immigrant comes to America, the first activity is to ‘PURCHASE OR STEAL’ an identity for his/her to stay. This identity will likely be a ‘FORGED’ Social Security, Driver’s License, and/or any other personal identity.  That acceptance and use of the ‘illegal’ document makes the ‘ILLEGAL’ immigrant a ‘CRIMINAL’.

Next for  ‘ILLEGAL’ immigrants may likely be seeking government assistance of government welfare programs to provide these ‘illegals’ with a comfortable home including ‘all’ utilities, food for his/her/their daily meals, all healthcare to include doctor visits, hospitalization, and prescribed drugs for the entire family.  We must not forget to add adequate money for cigarette, beer, miscellaneous money, and perhaps, illegal drugs.  Oh, what a deal!  For many, it is a free ride; at the cost of American taxpayers.

News reports reveal  that ‘Immigration’ legislation cost ‘Trillions of dollars’ to our already $19 Trillion of National Debt.

Americans must come first; before ‘illegals’ get ‘anything’.  Americans welcome ‘Legal immigration’, but oppose ‘Illegal immigration’. 

‘Illegal immigration’ is not broken.  Do not swallow that ‘claim’ from anyone.  President Obama, Capitol Hill Democrats, and a few RINO Republicans are willing to giveaway anything and everything to ‘illegals’ in turn for a political ‘vote’.  Democrat registration will flourish from another legislated form of hidden ‘Amnesty’ while Republican registration will decline.

And, American citizens, legal immigrants, or illegal immigrants must not forget the more than 600,000 Americans who have given their lives in protecting our USA, our Constitution, and our American flag; and millions of Americans have serve our precious nation in protecting our nation.

Do now allow ‘ILLEGAL’ immigrants, left-wing, give-away Democrats, the ‘Main-stream’ Medias. etc. to alter your mind allowing more of an ‘ILLEGAL’ invasion to damage of destroy our USA.

America was built on, by, and for ‘legal’ immigrants; not by unknown ‘illegal’ invasion.
