“And, Here Comes Baraky! “
Opinion September 10, 2018
Sorry, but using Johnny Carson’s stage entry line as a metaphor in an essay may be a bit churlish but damn it, it fits. That cheap schmuck Barak Obama simply couldn’t stand it anymore and had to come clambering back onto the political stage like he was really wanted.
Trumps robust America, almost out of the starting gate, is more that any marxist should have to endure. Barak’s brand of economic and social Obamaism that we endured for eight long miserable years, produced nothing meaningful for American except to apologize for Americas needed role of world leadership, import Islam, throw open our borders to the worlds peasants (voters), destroy American culture and kill American production and freedom by high taxes and over regulation. In the end, all he created was a “Deep State” that is struggling for its very survival under Trumps incessant pounding. After all, the State must be preserved at all costs.
So here comes Barak, the slick tongued, greasy used car salesman and community organizer, trying to claim credit for Trumps instinctive economic triumphs. He no longer apologizes for Americans supposed failures, but denigrates Trumps robust economy as actually the result of his policies of onerous regulation and oppressive taxation. They would have come to full bloom if only he had had a few more months. He trashes Trumps foreign policy as dangerous and war-mongering but his own policies, leading from behind, proved more dangerous to a stable world.
Comparisons in leadership, which he promotes, cannot stand comparison.
So, as expected, Obama slithered out of his dark hole to protect his legacy. Yes, he has one but its a legacy of failure in social, economic, political and foreign policy. According to Obama’s calculations, Trumps robust economy, the low unemployment numbers, higher incomes and jobs for all, wasn’t really the product of that awful Donald Trump, but was an economy he had primed and ready to spring upon the world if he had had just one more term. Oh, really?
Obama still draws a crowd of college students, but they don’t scream and holler like Trumps crowds do. His admirers cling to the hope that only Obama’s brand of Socialism can possibly succeed for America. Yet, the democrat party is morphing right before our eyes into something potentially dangerous if Conservatives don’t take to the stage as well to kill the dragon.
The Democrat Party is caught between a rock and a hard spot because the old socialists that made up the party for decades and have run the party into the ground, still retain leadership despite the dementia we see creeping in. They are now being challenged by an even more radical left-wing brand of Marxists in the guise of ignorant young millennials heartened by Bernie Sanders near success at achieving the 2016 Democrat nomination. They bought into the ‘entitlement for all’ notions, are not taking kindly to the current elderly democrat leadership.
Their disappointment was when it was revealed that Sanders was beaten out of the nomination by the skullduggery of Hillary’s Democrat machine, and that will not be forgiven. The new Marxist even have their own “shock troops” in the guise of Antifa’s and BLM’s for street deployment. And their politicians, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, et. al, are there to stir the pudding of what was once gentlemanly political debate.
America faces a crisis. The Marxists can still count enough voters, even dead ones, to change the character of local politics if conservatives don’t stay prepared. We must get out and vote. We cannot drop our guard or our America can be snatched back into the jaws of growing tyranny. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get’m! (09Sep18)
Justice Denied, Again?
Opinion August 31, 2018
The word is out there but for some inexplicable reason, it hasn't caught fire that Hillary & #39s hacked
email server caused the executions of all of America’s human assets (spies) in China. Perhaps
it’s because the Republican candidate for Florida’s governorship used the racist word “monkey”
and the deranged media went nuts again. The PoPO’s (Party of Perpetual Outrage i.e.:
Democrats) go nuts over just about anything if it advances their agenda, but Hillary must be
saved at all costs. Peter Strzok apparently knew about it! Is justice to be denied yet again?
The consequence of Hillary Clintons hacked illegal email server, crimes that still lie on fallow
ground for purposes of criminal justice cannot be denied. It now appears it wasn’t the Russians
as the PoPO’s staged, who hacked Hillary's server, but the ChiComs. Everybody else was
simply invited in to read DNC emails by John Podesta, the DNC Chairman who assumed control
after the feckless Debbie Wasserman Schultz opened the gates of the DNC website to the eyes
of the Jihadist world by hiring a family team of Pakistani IT experts, to run their site.
Accusations of collusion with those pesky Russians could better serve Hillary’s interests if it was
alleged that it was that awful Trump who collided with them, not Hillary. To this very minute,
Hillary’s totally debased and discredited scheme to destroy Donald Trump is still plodding its
way through a legal morass of lies, innuendos, and deceptions, all of which have exposed the
frightening depths of FBI and DoJ corruption, “not a smidgen” of evidence to implicate Trump.
But, back to Hillary. It is now reported that it was in fact, a Chinese firm, operating in Wash. DC,
that actually hacked Hillary’s unlisted, unauthorized and unsecured email server, reading every
word that passed between her and the State Department, her and Obama, and her and the
heads of the several US Intelligence agencies entwined in the web of her corrupt machine.
Consequently, US Spies in China were summarily rounded up and executed. Thank you, Hillary,
and Barak, Brennen, and Clapper for your good works protecting America whilst delivering our
human assets to the executioners of the Chinese state. I don’t know if a body count of deaths
directly attributed to Hillary Clinton can ever be tallied, let alone adjudicated in a court of law but
we don’t forget the things we did see, i.e.: the brutality of the deaths of the Benghazi four, the
poor young sot who was a DNC staffer murdered on his Washington DC door steps allegedly for
passing DNC emails to Wikileaks and now, a dozen or more US spies in China.
Yet, the attacks go on. Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal had the audacity to insist that
Robert Mueller could mount a case against Trump for obstruction of justice after Trump
confirmed that White House counsel Don McGahn would be leaving the administration in the
fall. This came from a politician who claimed Vietnam wartime exploits he never achieved
because he was never there. To be fair, he was a Sgt. in the Marine Corps Reserve. That was it.
Hillary’s crimes are nearly an open book of treasonous activity easily provable in a court of law.
To the reasonable American citizen, one who could be empaneled as a juror say, the cries of
“treason” ring out loud and clear. Why does no one in the halls of justice seem to care? Why do
politicians, in both parties, not care. Why don’t we agree to execute spies? We used to. We
execute criminals, murder babies in the womb but we don’t kill spies. Why? There’s a nest of
them in Obama’s administration that, if properly investigated and tried, would find themselves
quickly standing on the hangman’s scaffold. Maybe we could hire a Chinese executioner who
has no compunction to doing his duty. Just saying!
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get’m! (30Aug18).
Short Takes – The Questions About Mueller
Opinion August 1, 2018
The Questions About Mueller
It continues to amaze me that the Leftist media and their lackey’s in the Democrat party continue to asseverate the now thoroughly debauched GPS Fusion report as the one, truthful, legitimate document upon which Mueller can continue his persecution of Donald Trump. It’s as though they wish to preserve the Fusion report as a recently found lost book from the Gospels.
The Left’s attitude of complete contempt for the Congress was clearly manifest with the Congressional hearing of Mr. Peter Strzok, formerly an important cog in the anti-Trump FBI-DOJ cabal fixated on preserving the Clinton crime family and the Clinton Foundations money laundering scheme by pinning her nefarious activities to Trump’s campaign. They just can’t stand to lose but, by losing, they themselves stand in the cross hairs of judicial retribution and they know it. That’s why they are fighting so hard against Trump, to save themselves. Mueller isn’t the God sent angel the Left would have us believe. He has a history of targeting innocent people that has left an indelible stain on American jurisprudence. Can Justice be trusted?
A review of Mueller’s working history shows that he is capable of being quite ruthless in using the tactics of threats, harassment, prosecution for minor offenses and even forcing witnesses into bankruptcy, to admit to or claim anything against his target. Currently it’s the President of the United States, and the few who have lost to Mueller’s tactics, like Lt.Gen. Flynn, Paul Manafort and now Trumps personal lawyer, Mike Cohen, are evidence enough of his complete ruthlessness to protect the deep state. it certainly appears Mueller will do what it takes to bring down Trump except for one missing item…. accepting the truth.
What did Eric Holder of Fast and Furious (not the TV show) fame have to say about former FBI Director Mueller? “I’ve known Bob Mueller for 20, 30 years; my guess is he’s just trying to make the case as good as he possibly can.” Holder knows him. As Attorney General he was Mueller’s boss when Mueller was Director of the FBI. He has seen Mueller at work when Holder himself was obstructing justice and being held in contempt of Congress. He knows Mueller framed innocent people without remorse, but what can he say but good things? Peas in a pod!
It “shocks, shocks” the system realizing that Mueller’s history of connivence reveals his true dark character. Placed as he was by Deputy Atty. General Rob Rosenstein, in a position to conduct a ‘coup’ against a lawfully-elected President, signals just how far down the toilet American politics has descended under the protection of a corrupt DOJ.
You can figure any Republican who say “Bob Mueller will do a good job as Special Counsel,” or “Mueller has a great reputation for being fair,” and knows Bob Mueller, are “Never Trumpers” who desire President Trumps removal from office by any means necessary, be it inditement, chicanery, past business practices, emoluments, or consorting with weird women. They do not know , or care, about the many outrageous problems found in Mueller’s professional history. These people believe they are cultivating votes for a future run as a Senator or even President perhaps, like John Kasich for example.
Mueller, like Comey, were never trained Special Agents of the FBI. They were lawyers before, they were lawyers after and they are still lawyers. Many assume lawyers, especially with long careers in the DOJ would make great Directors of the FBI. Not so! A capable director with years of field experience, who comes up through the ranks is far better prepared to keep the FBI out of cut-throat politics than lawyers. Comey, Strzok and Mueller are exceptions.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way Now, go get ‘em! (27Jul18)
Short Takes – A Not Unlikely Solution to the North Korea Problem

A Not Unlikely Solution to the North Korea Problem
A time, date and place has been picked for the historic first meeting between a North Korean family oligarch despot and a definitely nonpolitical mover and shaker President of the United States. The world stands back in breathless anticipation. I still think that “Rocketman” will generate an excuse to back out except, he has lost the favor of China. but, we’ll see!
When one views the whole of the Far-East Asian sphere from space, nearly all the countries, especially Communist China, the largest, are enjoying unparalleled economic prosperity, except there sits, nestled among them North Korea, a small squalid little country, a rotten black spot on the earth un-illuminated by either the science of electricity, the ingenuity of invention or any level of prosperity for its starving people; a savage little kingdom that spends any money it gets on the toys of destruction. and exists only by the power of its threats.
One could suppose the only reason for North Korea’s existence is to keep South Korea from being an Island. We know it exists because we can see it from space in the daylight but as the shadows of night envelope the Korean peninsula, the hermit kingdom retreats like a sea worm back into its dark hole of obscurity, save for the occasional nuclear test flash.
North Korea only exists at China’s pleasure. Now they are becoming a nuisance with their nuclear threats to America, their nuclear detonations that have collapsed a mountain and spewed radioactive contamination, and is still contaminating, a large area of Chinese Manchuria, North Korea itself, the aquifers that lie beneath them, and the Yalu River that is now carrying the poisonous contamination to the Sea of Japan.
China does not want a united Korea on its borders, especially one united under the South Korean model. So, what to do? To solve the problem of the petulant Kim Jung Un, once and for all, China should remove Kim and the hierarchy of the North Korean government that supports him and replace it with a Chinese approved North Korean puppet government and allow No. Korea to enter the prosperity sphere enjoyed by all other asian countries and, that quickly, the Kim problem is solved for everyone. China doesn’t need Kim, it needs quite.
What would China ask in return? How badly does China want their problem child on its border neutralized? I suppose they would demand the return of Taiwan for sure, complete hegemony in the South China Sea, both economic and militarily, and a demand the US Fleet stay out of its waters. Naturally, Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Australia, Malaysia & etc. would never agree to that but, those are the cards laid out on the table and they’ll have to be played or negotiated. Trump is the very man for that.
Of course, for successful US policy, the Democrats can never, ever be allowed again to have a seat at that table. If Obama’s foreign policy fiascos are indicative of how a future Democrat government will govern, then it would be a greater danger to the entire world than is Kim.
Obama and Kerry’s Iranian fiasco, their leadership characterized only by back door agreements with Islamist militants, unsupported by any treaty, but agreed upon by a sheepfold of political lackey’s, then Kim and his Ilk, would stay in power forever.
it’s in the Democrats genes to ruin anything that would make America Great Again and doesn’t support inclusion, diversity, multiculturalism, perversion, and etc., etc., & etc.!

Short Takes – What Has Hollywood Done Now?
Opinion January 11, 2018
What has Hollywood Done Now?
Well, well, well, In yet another staged gala event awarding themselves statues and recognitions, The Golden Orbs awards ceremony, filled with Hollywood’s beautiful people dressed in black to make a visual statement about something that irks them, joined together with unbridled enthusiasm to proclaim their new messiah, Oprah Winfrey as their 2020 Presidential choice.
That won’t go well with the Democrats who still have their usual suspects, the elderly Joe Biden, Chuckie Schumer, Barry Sanders, the Indian maiden, Liz Warren, and dementia challenged Nancy Pelosi, hanging around their necks like albatrosses or hangman nooses. No, Oprah is good for preaching the Progressive line, expressing costly empathy for the poor and downtrodden, the illegals and homeless and those living in the shadows, but not as president. That simply won’t do! One presidential disaster is enough to overcome.
Admittedly, Oprah made a wonderfully stirring speech against something or other, the powerlessness of women one supposes, that could be classified right up there with Obama’s speech to the Democratic Party Convention in Chicago a few years ago. That speech, like Oprah’s, quickly brought Obama instant political recognition and then the presidency a few years later which he promptly set about “changing.” Obama was a fascist. Oprah is a products salesman.
For 2020, the elephant in the room is the sitting President, Donald Trump. He is getting things done by setting America back on it constitutional tracks, while being the constant object of left wing media derision, fake news attacks designed to undermine his administration, and personal attacks against his family, his associates and his administration. Oh, hell, attacks against anything Conservative and everything Trump.
The need to make comparisons cannot be ignored. Both Trump and Oprah are very wealthy in their own rights and that recommends them for good business sense. Trumps skills lie in recognizing where money can be made, not out of wacky ideas or from printing presses, but of seeing potential in community growth, offering people what they want and buying property to build structures that will accomplish those goals. He spreads the wealth. So does Oprah, but on a commercial scale of product identification and salesmanship. She’s very good at it.
Other skills Trump enjoys is the ability to successfully negotiate with people, to make them happy with the deal, as well as making his investors happy. That’s called Capitalism and the fall out for it is increased employment for the communities he builds in and taxes for government.
Oprah is wealthy because she knows how to sell products, save her money and spread wealth and happiness to the people she employees and the people she hocks her products to. Not too shabby, and another great example of Capitalism at work. Both are hard workers and it shows,
But Trump also saw how quickly a rogue government can steal a populations economic vitality by ignoring the rules of economics (socialism) through onerous rules and regulations. He sought to correct it by running for President with the expressed purpose of making America great again. The people bought it and he is doing exactly what he promised he would do, like Jesus kicking the money changers out of the temple. 2020 is three years away. Can Hollywood really sell us Oprah? Can she do what Trump has done? That remains to be seen, but don’t bet on it.

Short Takes – The Real NFL
Opinion October 26, 2017
The Real NFL
The members of the Negro Football League (NFL), serve less as ‘slaves’ than they do as ‘Gladiators.” They are contestants in combat for the public spectacles in which they choose to perform. They are supplied with proper protective equipment to deflect the blows of their adversaries, their own weapons, their speed and agility.
They are, as well, paid unbelievably high salaries to defray the cost of their off season pleasures. Being an all male clique, they must supply their own women, booze and drugs while avoiding the police who will arrest them if stopped and, they hate to be stopped.
As high paid Gladiators we expect them to perform in the public arena without comment, certainly not to defame or disrespect the people who pay them, or the nation that sired them. They have no other useful purpose in society except for our entertainment. It is a narrow platform upon which they perform and politics, not one of their better subjects, should be avoided at all costs. But, It’s too late. Disgust is permeating the fan base.
To be held forth as grand examples to little children is to tell a gross lie. Proud of their individual histories of incarcerations for illegal firearms possession, drug use and trafficking, arrests for family violence, manslaughters by DUI, and fathering children by multiple women, does not qualify for any status above an employed factory worker struggling to support a family, or an unemployed worker seeking a job. Only their salary makes them unique.
These are ignorant people and many have only recently learned to peel bananas with their hands. That’s why they must play in sports. That’s why many subsequently experience careers shortened by injuries leading to even shorter life’s. Their only individual goal is to achieve a niche in the Hall of Fame or claim a garish piece of finger jewelry to prove their bragging rights. They demand respect yet refuse to give it. Respect is earned, not in the arena of combat, those rewards are money and trinkets, but in the conduct a man demonstrates in living his daily life.
Americans are tired of them claiming a status to which they do not belong but earnestly aspire, as victims because they are black. The thoughtless impulses that has driven most of them to “take a knee” and display a morbid disrespect to American traditions, lies in the psychology of group think. Group think is exactly what Karl Marx intended for the laboring classes. Many, gifted with reading skills ending at the eighth grade level, can only find their emotional release on the playing fields of equals, where end zone displays for crossing a line with a pointed ball, simply reveals the true depth of their real nature.
Money doesn’t buy dignity nor respect. The Dallas Cowboy’s owner, Jerry Jones comments not withstanding, the whole NFL dilemma is going to represent a sea change in American thinking about exactly what is truly important and what’s worth spending money on. In Atlanta recently, in the new stadium and on the same field where the Atlanta Falcons under perform, the crowd for Atlanta’s soccer team exceeded 74,000 fans, “Houston, we have a problem!”
The opiate of the NFL working class, as Marx might have said, is the cheers and admiration that resounds within the confines of the stadium. To the individual Gladiator, glad handing and high fives, chest bumps and pretending to urinate on a goal post like a dog, while once amusing, are now becoming symbols of cultural depravity. The lessening crowds at NFL games show it. When the well dries up, who’s gonna buy their Mama’s a big house?

Transportation Woes
Leave it to the media to anathematize Trump and Conservatism using any issues that flies by.
The media has become so unscrewed by their hatred of President Trump that, like the NFL, they don’t really see or understand what they are continuing to do to themselves, further tarnish their credibility and diminish their brand name. Now it’s private airplane flights by Tom Price, H&HS Secretary, doing his job that they are attacking. I don’t care.
That Sec. Price used, or had to use, a private conveyance to do his job is a symptom of a problem, not the problem. He asked for and received permission to book his flights so I don’t understand the media’s outrage. The media didn’t express outrage when our Royal Princess, Nancy Pelosi demanded and got, befitting her elitist station, a large Air Force plane to convey her back and forth non-stop to San Francisco every week when she was House Speaker. The media didn’t go berserk when Attorney General Loretta Lynch secretly booked a private plane for her flight to Arizona where incidentally, she accidentally met former president Bill Clinton, also there in his private airplane, to discuss golf and grandchildren. By the way, she doesn’t play golf and has no grandchildren.
The dysfunctional but Progressively obedient media fended off complaints when Obama flew to Hawaii aboard his presidential yacht, a huge fuel consuming 747 costing millions, several times a year not to mention all the other pleasure and campaign flights he took in it. The eight year bill for his highness’s pleasure must have been stupendous but nobody in the media was outraged. Clearly, to do so would have been racist. For Tom Price, it’s “white privilege.”
We haven’t heard one word about the private travel expenses of Obama’s many Czar’s, Department Secretaries, administrators and etc. during the eight years of gracious living they all enjoyed but, one Trump official doing his job, using the most expedient method to do so, and the Leftist media goes completely berserk.
For the media their problem remains. They can sling all the offal their dirty little hands can hold against the wall but nothing sticks because nobody believes ‘em anymore. In fact, nobody really cares because American’s voted in Donald Trump as President and no attack against him, coming from the media’s organs of Leftist propaganda, even from the rear against his appointees, is going to change that.
Every department in the Federal Govt. has a Transportation office. It’s sole reason to exist is to find the least expensive mode of transportation for government officials needing do their job in the most expeditious manner possible. Mostly, almost exclusively in fact, US Commercial Carriers are used for that purpose. Abroad, foreign carriers are authorized as needed.
In order to get that authorization for government travel, temporary duty (TDY) orders have to be cut authorizing the expense, including overnight accommodations. If the overnight is spent on a military installation, including Aircraft Carriers at sea, it still costs money and must be budgeted for. Nothing is free and nobody gets a free ride. It only has to be justified.
Travel expenses are all budgeted a year or more in advance and usually causes no problems. Upon completion of the travel, the official traveler submits a detailed expense voucher, with receipts as necessary, detailing the travel and the expense involved. In the case of Tom Price, some aide is responsible for this task. I used the term TDY, and that’s military jargon so I don’t know exactly how H&HS does it, but, there are only so many dollars budgeted per year for travel and it must be accounted for. The Mean Stream Media doesn’t report those little details. I have no clue how the Obama administration and Hillary did it, but I suspect like everything else they touch, some skullduggery was involved. It’s just a job. The media should get over it.

Continuation of DEAD CHILD YES, BUT MEDIA IS TO BLAME.
By: Candace Hardin
The plot thickens in the New Mexico compound for training school shooters as the
prosecutors from Taos County question the malnourished, mistreated children being trained to
carry out school shootings.
It seems that the leaders of this group were out to “confront corrupt groups or individuals” and
“reveal the truth” to those they chose to exact punishment.
The group was targeting Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta Georgia as one jihad they wanted
to fulfill. They were going to “shoot or otherwise attack” anyone who failed to accept their
message at the hospital. One of the children reported that this target was chosen for the poor
treatment she and her mother had received there.
Grady Memorial is one of the best trauma hospitals in the region, if one is in an accident or badly
burnt. It is also a place where poor, indigent or those without healthcare will be treated with
charity.
However, the plot thickens as the initial child abuse charges against all five adult defendants had
to be dismissed as District Attorney, Donald Gallegos of Taos, failed to follow normal court
procedures and schedule a preliminary hearing for the defendants. The Judge chastised the DA,
but really this is too much of a coincidence.
Why would a district attorney “forget” to follow everyday procedures that a second year law
student could probably handle with ease?
Could it be that because the leader, Siraj Wahhaj Sr, Brooklyn Iman and father of the leader of
the compound, is so well connected to the previous administration, Obama and Hillary Clinton?
Then there is the disturbing question.
Why are there still no protests at all in the area for gun control, anti – NRA, child abuse or any of
the normal upsets to anything remotely connected with a gun?
Could it be that those who pay for violent rallies are not buying a round this time?
Siraj Wahhaj Sr, was connected to school shooter Nicolas Cruz of the February 14 th School
shooting in Parkland, Florida.
Repeat again – the compound operated by his son was training school shooters.
The situation begins to smell just a little worse by one event that happened at Brett Kavenaugh’s
first day in hearings for the Supreme Court.
How can that be connected to the New Mexico compound, one might ask? Read on and see.
Of course, it was a partisan circus from the first moment, a Chuck Schumer scheduled monkey
wrench display, along with vulgar, loud protestors.
One of which screamed that she had to leave Missouri in order to get an abortion. (There are five
Planned Parenthood locations in Missouri. Surely one could contain her rudeness long enough to
perform the procedure.)
However, the big “story” was that Kavenaugh allegedly refused to shake the hand of Parkland
parent, Fred Guttenburg, parent of slain daughter and student, Jaime Guttenburg claims to have been introduced by Senator Feinstein, and was sure that Judge Kavenaugh “just didn’t want to deal with the reality of gun violence.”
Uh huh, you have a dead child, and all sincere condolences are extended, but why is (a previously respected before Trump nominated him for the Supreme Court) judge all of a sudden a “risk of public safety?” (According to a tweet issued by Guttenburg).
Yet a compound training children to be school shooters is not something to be worried about
even though it has a direct connection to the shooter who killed your daughter?
Wouldn’t it be more productive to be in that New Mexico district attorney’s office, or in front of
the judge who barely slapped the defendants initially?
Wouldn’t a sincere person be demanding to know why these people connected to the shooting
death of your child and sixteen others are basically getting off on technicalities?
When one starts to connect the dots, the picture looks and smells more like a partisan paid dead
rat.
Short Takes – GOP’s Success or Failure?
Opinion July 30, 2018
GOP’s Success or Failure?
Trumps success by his individual determination to return pride and economic success to
America with his non traditional bash ‘em policies that “elite" politicians simply do not
understand, is leading the political change in American. Some call it the Trump Train, others
thinks it’s hogwash. If the GOP, even with its few elite rogue elements still holding office, fails to
keep the House, America is in for a very rough ride indeed.
A few Republican politicians understand that we are in a historic cycle of desperately needed
political change and are working to keep Trump’s momentum going. Like him or not, Trump is
making things happen for the best. Does the compassionate conservative of a bygone era,
Ohio’s Governor John Kasich, really believe he can top Trump by reengaging the GOP in the
coils of socialist government elitism? I seriously don’t think he can.
If that were so, then why is the GOP still fearful of a “Blue Wave” in this coming 2018 election?
Is there a “Blue Wave” coming or is all rhetorical media BS designed to frighten voters into
voting Democrat? Democrats have nothing to offer that remotely even compares to Trumps
success. All they can do, and are doing, is filling the airways with peripheral nonsense.
The non ‘Freedom Caucus’ GOP members of the House know full well the dangers of the
Marxist Democrat party regaining power. They want a complete reversal of Trumps economic
success (4.1% growth) so citizens will again become dependent on government provided
Socialism. They want open borders for the worlds immigrants to flood in and they want
sanctuary cities for those already here illegally. if the Senate were to go along with a Democrat
House, then Trump would be removed,“tout suite.” Gone would be his tax cuts, American jobs,
prosperity and freedom. The reward will be an immediate reorganization of the welfare state,
socialized health care and open borders and with it the promise of a Socialist utopia, a la,
Venezuela. When will they ever learn?
To date, remaining members of the GOP ‘elite’ class, still cling to the vain hope that the now
completely phony Mueller inquiry will find something against Trump that will ensure his removal
and the survival of the corrupt deep state, and protect their role in it.
The GOP’s problem is, unlike Trump, they don’t keep their promises. They promised smaller
government and grew it bigger. They promised to balance the budget yet threw it into overdrive.
They promised to repeal ObamaCare and didn’t, and Trump had to do it piece-meal. They
promised to fully, fund and build a wall along the southern border, stop borrowing money that
runs up the national debt, and cut taxes to sustain Americas economic revival.
It is no secret the House has been in need of new leadership. It has a GOP ‘elite’ with Paul
Ryan at the helm but, as it turns out, he is part of the problem and can barely disguise his own
contempt for the President. Ryan doesn’t see the future through Trumps eyes so, because of
the growing in-house opposition against him, he has thrown in the towel and will retire in
November. Until then, the House remains effectively, all but leaderless.
The Freedom Caucus is gaining hegemony in the House with Rep. Jim Jordan in the main role
as Speaker. The old guard still have McCarthy and the bullet ridden Scalise as popular choices
but the scene has changed and their brand of leadership, designed to save the un-savable, will
no longer satisfy the base. It’s time to get on the Trump Train and Make America Great Again.

The Left’s Lost Far Horizons
The Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), a term popularized by Rush Limbaugh, is adversely infecting the common sense of Democrats and Republican Never Trumper’s. Like an undetected cancer spreading through the body politic, its infectious growth manifested itself even on “The View,” the very portal of TDS news speak and the cesspool of Liberal thought. The media is no better. It’s a conglomeration of sick organizations in need of total refits.
Democrat leadership has all but evaporated. Poor Nancy Pelosi still entertains visions of a triumphant return to the Speakership when she can hardly speak without drooling, slurring her words or forgetting her lines all together. What’s left of the sane House Democrats should stop talking about retiring her and just do it. Nancy would be better off on the clean streets of San Francisco administering to the homeless folk and illegals she so desperately admires, then face the humiliation that is surely coming. Her horizons are now far away.
Diane Feinstein, nearing age 85, if she’s not already there, has reached the bounds of her Far Horizons by offering up a desperate bill that would, she hopes, placate her base, while causing Senate Republicans some problems. Her bill, is to ensure that invaders in our country illegally, are not separated from their families or whoever brought them in. Fake outrage over the practice of separating adults and children was merely another issue the democrats thought they could seize on as a cudgel to bash Trump. Feinstein’s bill was poorly thought out, inoperable, expensive and would open all sort of other problems for real American citizens.
Democrats, desperate to make us think the child separation issues at the border are Trump’s doing, ignores the fact they were enforced under Obama. The reason for the separations are clear; children do not belong in jail with adults, and not all the adults who brought them were/are the children’s real parents anyway. No amount of sympathetic feelings will change the fact they are here illegally, and Americans now realize that. Diane, even as we speak, is being ditched.
There’s a family in the neighbor who is anti-gun. They put up a yard sign declaring their house to be a Gun Free Zone. A neighbors sign say’s “This is an armed household. Go next door.” Then they had a sign that screamed “We want Open Borders, immigrants are world citizens.” Somebody took the hinges off their front door when they were away and put up a another sign that says “immigrants welcome, come on in and make yourself to home.”
The Democrat Party simply cannot survive without voters and as American voters, including Americans of African Descent, are ditching ‘em, they must import voters, even illegal ones who cannot read or write English, let alone the Spanish they brought with them. How is given them drivers licenses and entering them on the voter rolls simply because they’re here, helping America? It isn’t. It helps the Socialists impose their socialism on the rest of of us.
In National Elections, votes recorded from California, should be automatically discounted as unverifiable, unreliable and illegal as should the votes of every state that encourages illegals to register to vote. In states the give drivers licenses to illegals should be immediately suspect in neighboring states and the drivers who use them arrested for possessing invalid IDs.
The far horizon, as I see it, is obscured by the moving mass of humanity rushing our borders to get in. With the Democrats help they won’t need to bash the doors down, but simply walk through the open doors and enter the welfare state, like the one(s) they just fled.

Short Takes – How Deep is the Deep State?
Opinion July 20, 2018
How Deep is the Deep State?
The outrage from the remnants of the Bush, Clinton, Obama administration’s, supported by the Leftist media keeps trumpeting against the supposed “faux pas” Trump made in his Helsinki summit with Putin. This includes the seriously nonsensical cries of “TREASON.”
Definitely not treason. I’ll go with a “faux pas” (a stumble) but nothing, absolutely nothing, Trump has done compares with the absolute treasonous activity of Hillary Clinton with her sale of American uranium to Russia, her unauthorized email server passing classified information, her aides destroying evidence (Cell devices) and her Clinton Foundation’s money laundering for Clinton’s profit. All that criminality is ignored by the press, by most Republicans, by the DNC whose deranged activists not only destroyed evidence, but denied the FBI the right to examine the physical evidence of the DNC’s alleged hacked computers, not to mention the DNC’s imported Congressional IT experts, a whole family nest of Pakistani Muslim spies.
The question now circulating is did Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein allow special counsel Mueller to publicize his indictment of several Russian operatives just before Trumps Helsinki Summit with Vladimir Putin to stop the summit, affect its outcome or embarrass the President? Rosenstein said he informed the President three days before Helsinki and Trump didn’t object. Okay! That’s the politics today. I’ll leave it at that because tomorrow there will be yet another outrage for the Democrats to glam up on. It’s just a matter of patience. One day something could stick.
How about let’s play ‘Jeprody,’ except I’ll provide the answer: “Who is Lisa Barsoomian?”
Lisa H. Barsoomian is an attorney, a graduate of Georgetown Law School. She’s a protege of both Robert Mueller and James Comey. She worked for R. Craig Lawrence and represented Bill Clinton in 1998. She also represented Robert Muller three times, James Comey five times, Barack Obama forty-five times, Kathleen Sibelius fifty-six times, Bill Clinton forty more times and Hillary Clinton seventeen times not to mention the FBI at least five times. She’s good!
Unlike the demented Left that seeks fault in Trumps every nuance and demands his immediate Impeachment, the folks she represented were doubtless sued by some organization or another, for some frivolous complaint or other. The courts are filled with this stuff. it’s all a matter of looking it up. She’s a lawyer, a good one apparently, doing the jobs she was hired for. But, who is she and why should we care?
We should care because all her files, documents and court cases relating to the Clinton’s are being purged including her defense of Bill Clinton in the Hamburg vs. Clinton case in 1998 and its appeal in 1999. In my world, once, purges like this, or change of stations, suggested the need to protect an informant in some scheme against a criminal element or a foreign government. Was/is she an Intelligence agent? I won’t speculate further except to note that her email address is with the NIH, a known hiding place for deep cover government operatives. The NIH is the inoffensively titled National Institutes of Health. Just saying!
Much of her professional work was defending American Intelligence agencies from FOIA requests. She has been involved, reportedly, in hundreds of cases representing the US Attorneys office in Wash. DC. But here, I should point out that we’re venturing into the dark world of the American Intelligence Community that Trump allegedly dissed in his Helsinki remarks that has the Left in a tizzy.
Isn’t it the American Intelligence community that has been actively engaged in organizing a Coup against President Trump ever since his election? Which brings us back to the continuing, dull, mind deadening Mueller Investigation that will never cease. Why?
Well, because, among other things, it deals with Trumps tariffs on Chinese steel and aluminum imports, funding the border wall, providing amnesty to the illegal Stateless children (DACA) collecting on our borders, protects the Clapper leaks, the Comey leaks, Jeff Sessions recusal and other dangerous changes to the Deep State that Trump is bringing down.
Where does Barsoomian fit in and why should we care? Because she is Assistant Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s wife. How about them apples? Nothing I’ve mentioned here is secret or classified in any way. It’s all from open sources.

Short Takes – Revealing the Coup
Opinion May 25, 2018
A name rarely mentioned in this tawdry ‘coup’ against Trump business, is recently retired Admiral Mike Rogers, head of the NSA with the dual capacity as the Director of the newly forming Cyber Command. If I were asked to select a candidate for a “Profiles in Courage” award, it would surely be Admiral Rogers, followed by Rep. Devin Nunes..
Over a year ago, both of these men took independent action when they recognized that things were not kosher in Obama’s government after Hillary lost her sure bet election. Progressives reaction to their election loss was disastrous and what Mike Rogers did was unprecedented. In his capacity as head of the NSA, it was his responsibility to share NSA collected intelligence of special interest with the heads of the other Intelligence agencies, but particularly the CIA Director, John Brennan and the Director of National Intelligence DNI, James Clapper.
It was reported that Mike Rogers was reading some reports that crossed his desk that alarmed him by what they revealed. He immediately cancelled all appointments for the day, packed up his briefcase and in an unprecedented move, headed to NYC for a secret emergency meeting with President-Elect Donald Trump in Trump Tower on 08/11/16. Adm. Rogers did not share the need for this secret emergency meeting with the CIA or the DNI, because clearly, they would have attempted to stop him.
The information he revealed to the President-elect was that Obama’s Intelligence Community, John Brennen and James Clapper, had launched a covert post election spying operation against Donald Trump, that included intercepting Trump’s communications in Trump Tower.
Readers may recall the very next day following that ‘secret’ meeting, Donald Trump claimed that his building had been ‘wired tapped’ and he immediately, moved the Trump organization out of Trump Tower, lock, stock and barrel, to another location accompanied by the hoots, hollers, ‘harumps’ and derisive laughter of the Leftist media and, more importantly, the deep state.
Of course, hard wire intercepts of telephone communications (wiretaps) as were common in earlier decades, are no longer used as technology has quickly advanced far beyond those now antiquated methods. Today, cyber systems are now in vogue that sweep the ‘ether,’ collecting any and all data government computers deems necessary to save itself.
Among those important intercepts that crossed Adm. Rogers desk was information that clearly showed the newly elected president, Donald Trump, was being illegally surveilled in his Trump Tower Headquarters. When the laughter died down, sober faces suddenly realized the import of the disclosure. Day’s later, The Washington Post reported a recommendation, allegedly made in in “October,” that Mike Rogers should be removed from his NSA position & etc..
Obama’s heads in the Pentagon and the intelligence community, urgently recommended to President Obama that, Adm. Rogers, should be removed (fired) as the NSA. head. The panic was setting in, the consternation was complete, but Admiral Rogers maintained his loyalty, his dignity and his self-respect. Clearly, Mike Rogers didn’t want to be involved with the spying scheme which was Obama’s post presidency plan to save his legacy and prevent Trump from removing Obama’s embedded loyalists. Rogers unknown loyalty was a risk to the Obama objectives. He was not a swamp creature and the rest is history and it’s still in the making.

Short Takes – The Blame Game
Opinion January 22, 2018
The Blame Game
The few times the US government has shut down in past couple of decades, the Republicans have been blamed. Why? Because the Democrats said so. Now, the Democrats, even in their minority demand a DACA resolution favorable to them before any budget deal to finance the government can proceed. Why is that? We kicked the Democrats, indeed the whole corrupt Democrat political machine out of any authority, over three successive election cycles. I reckon we’ve got it all. Let’s use it. Why are we still afraid to do something positive?
The Schumer Shutdown represents the epitome of Democratic playbook antics that have for years stymied Republican efforts to have a Constitutional Government instead of a corrupt one. Why? Schumer still believes he can hang this on Trump and the Republicans. Historically, Republicans, fearful of legislative combat with the Democrats, have always caved lest they be called racists and bigots..….until Donald Trump.
Democrat hypocrisy is often cited but the word “Hypocrite,” when flung at Democrats has no poison in it because Democrats refuse to react to it. Too, most voters who dwell happily in the in the Democrat sheepfold don’t know what it means anyway. Republicans need to use different words like liars, cheats and thieves. Everybody knows those words because that’s exactly what the Democrat party is, a collection of liars, cheats and thieves. “Dickie” Durban is the most recent prime example of one of these creatures, not to neglect Chuckie Schumer himself.
Republican politicians, at least those that hide their principles by calling themselves “moderates” or “compassionate conservatives,“ are deathly afraid of being accused of racism or bigotry, an accusation the Leftist media is always happy to promote. So, for years, the US government has been guided by the systemic ‘fear’ that has enabled the Socialist agenda.
08 November, 2016 should have ended all that, yet here we are, our legislators in a deadlock with a corrupt minority party over government funding because an unconstitutional, illegal, Executive Order, is considered by them to have the rule of law when it does not. The consequences are enormous for the rule of law, a return to which is essential if we are to help Trump Make America Great again. Tea Parties, take notice.
To ignore the Constitution for so many years, as the Democrats have done, appears to have become the ‘norm’ instead of the exceptional method of running a government. Now a conservative leader is standing up to the Democrats and their socialist agenda and the Republicans can’t seem to get a handle on how to move forward. Good ol’ Harry Reid showed us the way.
If the Republicans want to get moving, do as Harry Reid did, eliminate the senate 60 vote filibuster rule and get on with making America Great Again. I remind Republicans, that Democrats are the minority and should stay that way forever. As for filibuster, if fairness is all that important, than require the Senators, in fact, to stand in the well and filibuster. Then the whole country will know where their Senator really stands.
In their minority, obstructionism is the only tool Democrats have left. Trump is dismantling their years of hard work to drag America firmly into the Socialist camp and ultimately the One World Order scheme. The Democrats love of Marxist-Socialist dogma remains a continuing threat to a Constitutional America. It’s time to move on no matter how painful it might be.

Short Takes – Tax Incentives, Why?

Tax Incentives, Why?
So, Marco Rubio is the newest wannabe ‘Judas’ in the Republican stable. In the GOP Tax reform plan he demands that the tax reform plan must increase child tax credit incentives to the poor, or he won’t vote for it. This is so he can get re-elected in a Florida now filling up with refugees from hurricane wrecked Puerto Rico, not to mention Obama’s islamists, poverty fleeing Haitians and third worlders swarming across our southern borders to join in the fray.
We would expect Join McCain to do it. He would claim to see some imminent danger to the Republic if he deigned to support a Trump initiative that would allow Americans to keep more of their own earnings so, he would vote against it. But, little Marco? Naw!
Everything government does is based on a supposed “crisis of human affairs.” Who, exactly determines what that crisis is or should be? Why, politicians of course! California forest fires might fit the definition but people should have fire insurance and not build homes in foothills covered with brush that has the flashpoint of gasoline. The flooding and destruction that comes with hurricanes, unusual storms, zombie apocalypse and etc. could be a concern for government, but not the federal government. It’s not in their job description (the Constitution)! If you want to live in a flood zone, buy insurance. “Ya pays your money you takes your chances.”
What little Marco wants is that you and I, as wage earning tax payers, and we do pay our taxes in order to avoid going to jail, allow the government to take a bit more of those taxes we pay and squander it on other people, basically third worlders unqualified to be productive Americans anyway. Why are they allowed to receive incentives from us the the plight of our veterans is ignored. Why should illegals be rewarded without expending the effort required to get it?
As I understand it, Puerto Rico needs to be rebuilt. So does Haiti. Why are those people here in our country then, living nearly for free? We can’t afford ‘em anymore. Politicians are solely responsible for this near financial disaster of good intentions we are now facing yet, like lil Marco, they keep adding on “benefits” that we can no longer afford. Admittedly, right now, some Americans exult at the rising stock market earning big bucks. When the Europeans stop sending their money here to avoid their own coming EU collapse, and the cash pool available for our government to dip into ends and then we’ll have to face the consequences. It will not be happy.
I should think that welfare, including child incentive tax credits, should have strict, enforceable limits. Recipients of government welfare should be absolutely limited to three children and NO more. Besides, I cannot find one amendment in the US Constitution that permits government to dispense taxpayer money for any other purpose than those enumerated therein. I do read in the 10th Amendment, words that precisely limits what the federal government can and cannot do and that includes doing good deeds. Doing good deeds should belong to the states.
This form of thinking, spending our money outside that permitted by the constitution, is done by politicians who want to keep their jobs by showing favoritism to the abundant numbers of poor voters who will, naturally, vote to maintain free government stuff. If welfare was totally returned to the States, as the 10th amendment allows, the federal deficit and debt, will depress, along with the taxes they steal, and we will all be happier. Taxpayers in states near financial collapses, like California, Illinois and Connecticut are now experiencing, would also put an end to that foolishness. So would term limits for federal politicians. We should have the incentive to spend or save our own money not give it to government to spend foolishly. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (15Dec17)
Short Takes – Israel, A Step Forward?
Opinion December 12, 2017
Israel, A Step Forward
So, Trump enacted a long ignored law passed over twenty years ago that officially recognizes Jerusalem as the legitimate capital of the state of Israel by announcing he will move the US Embassy there. Trump’s announcement set off a pre-arranged, spontaneous mass rage event by stateless people, Arab’s, who call themselves Palestinians and claim to be the legitimate occupants of the area called Palestine, that includes Israel. Will wonders never cease? It’s rarely ever mentioned that the Israelites, ethnically Semites, are also Palestinians.
Since Trump’s announcement, Leftists scream “the Peace Process is over,” that the years America spent trying to bring the Arabs and Jews together will have been wasted. Oh woe! That’s nonsense, of course! The past twenty years, or longer, of “the peace process,” was nothing more than a willful exercise in wishful thinking so far as a ‘rapprochement’ between Arabs and Jews is concerned. So, President Trump, acting on existing US law, did exactly what previous presidents, Clinton, Bush and Obama, proudly proclaimed they would do, recognize Jerusalem as the Capital of the State of Israel, but didn’t. So be it! Let the games begin.
The “Peace Process” has been a sham from the very beginning because the Arabs, as Muslims, have long held the Koranic promise to recreate the Caliphate of The Islamic state of Syria, Iraq, and the Levant (ISIL) was inviolate. The idea of allowing a Jewish State in their midst is non- negotiable and always have been. As the Quran permits, lying to Infidels until the Caliphate is at last created, is permissible. Hence, the droning years of useless Peace Talks. In other words, Islam will never recognize Israel as anything but as a place from which Jewish slaves can be harvested. In 1948, the Arab League recognized Palestine as an Arab state, to create a point of argument against infidels. The Kingdom of Jordan, the Arab state that borders Israel on the east, is also considered a part of the Levant. Two wars have failed to remove Israel.
Like all schemes of the West’s far Left Progressive liberals, the Arab-Israeli problem in the Middle-east has been their vehicle to demean the Jewish State, delegitimize the United Nations resolution of 1948 that created the State of Israel, and maintain a constant atmosphere of political ‘crisis’ that includes, not even subtly, an eventual return to the Third Reich’s scheme for the “Final Solution,” but using Islamic Forces, not SS troops (Europeans).
The planning for this eventuality has long been in the process, especially the decades the Left has spent trying to create a workable form of Marxist Socialism in the United States. Trump has thrown a monkey wrench into the whole scheme and like cheap watches, it’s flying apart
Hamas has announced it is ready to “Fight The Zionist Entity after Trump’s Declaration!” One wonders if the fever might spread to the stateless ones in places like Dearborn, Michigan and other American nests of the Islamic cancer Obama spent eight years importing into the American heartland.
So, what’s new? Arabs have clashed with Israeli forces over the West Bank and the Gaza strip for decades. Predictions of ‘unrest’ were staged within a day after President Trumps announcement, and Israel’s military has been sending additional police and combat units to the old familiar flash points in the West Bank and Gaza, in response. All this has long been Plan “B” for Hamas and Hezbollah to create their Caliphate. The Jihadists have patience and can wait and, while Israel can win a thousand wars, they only need to lose one.
