Month: May 2018

If you ever had any doubts about the hypocrisy on the Left, the firing of Roseanne should leave you doubt free.  To the Left’s credit, they don’t even attempt to hide their hypocrisy and they sure as hell don’t apologize for it.

Roseanne’s biggest mistake wasn’t the tweet, it was apologizing for it. Her apology was the green light for the Left to pounce and destroy. Her apology was a small crack in the door which the Left took full advantage of. It was almost like they wet their pants in glee. Their barrage actually has little to do with Roseanne and everything to do with hitting back at Trump and yes, all of his deplorable supporters. You and me.

I honestly think that Roseanne could sue ABC for wrongful termination. A company, including ABC, cannot fire one person for breaking their sudden new ethical standards while allowing others under their employ to do the same things without any consequences. Just one example of this, and there are many is the ABC show, The View. These women make hateful, unacceptable, ugly, hurtful comments on a regular basis and ABC condones this. This is hypocrisy. The Left in totality does the same thing. Watch a Bill Marr show, remember Kathy Griffin holding a severed head of the President? Listen to Morning Joe, take a day and watch CNN and tell me what you see. Read the front page stories on Yahoo. You’ll soon see that our President is compared to apes, Nazi’s, and Satan himself. Where’s the outrage? Where are the firings? Where are the show cancellations?

I don’t condone what Roseanne tweeted, but if the Left, Hollywood, black lives matter, ME-TOO protesters, and the MSM can tout free speech even though its ugly, racist and hateful, then Roseanne’s tweet is little more than child’s play. It all reminds me of grade school chatter. “Sticks and Stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.”

Most good and honest people would like to see all of this kind of speech go away but, it never will because people have differing opinions and the right to express them.

What bothers me the most is the one sided free speech attack. Because we no longer can rely upon the media in this country, we are left to fend for ourselves. I’ve written many times about the MSM being the number one enemy and I believe it as strongly today as I ever have. This one little tweet has caused the complete fake melt down on the Left.  It would be laughable if not so serious. Not the tweet, but the actions taken by the enemy. Of all the things that have been said, this Roseanne tweet is a nothing burger turned into a national conversation.

North Korea, fake Russia collusion, MS-13, immigration, China, Iran, economy, healthcare, ISIS, police killings;  these and many more important subjects have taken a back seat to what? To a tweet calling a person a monkey. Welcome to the MSM’s America.

All we can do is keep fighting for our rights to be heard and for a fairer and equal discussion in this country. Thankfully, we currently have a President who is our mouthpiece. After eight years of complete one-sided Leftist narrative we have a lot to do in order to bring civility back to this country. We can continue our fight for justice and our fight to bring back greatness in America in November by showing up once again and making our voices heard.

“You can always get better. Nobody can stop you from getting better, and nobody can stop you from trying to make something right.” Roseanne Barr

Donald Trump responded to an ad in the paper for President of the United States. The ad read: Wanted, a strong self-motivated individual with proven leadership skills. Successful applicant must have excellent communication and negotiation skills. Potential candidates must have the ability to travel and work long hours. Prior public speaking a plus. Qualified applicants can send resumes to whitehousepersonnel.gov.

After reviewing Mr. Trump’s application, he was invited to interview. Applicants were narrowed down to just two. The other applicant was prior Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham-Clinton. While her resume did not meet the position qualifications, she was granted an interview because she claimed she “deserved” the job because she is a woman.

The Interview:

Mr. Trump: “I think I have an idea what the job entails. Would you mind telling me more?”

Washington: “As you know, the job is for President of the United States. You need to know, should you be selected, that no one on the Left will like you and in fact at least 150 million people will hate you. The position is a four year term with the opportunity to renew your contract for an additional four years based on your performance. As President, you’ll need to secure peace in the Middle East which will include convincing Iran to cease their nuclear program. You will also be charged with the responsibility of removing any and all nuclear capabilities currently enjoyed by North Korea. Worldwide trade has been out of balance for the past 50 years; fixing this will fall under your office’s responsibility. Domestically, during your term, the country will expect you to secure our borders, stop terrorism, solve the on-going immigration problem and develop a new healthcare program that is both affordable and effective. As part of your employment you will be challenged to create millions of new jobs, reduce taxes, rebuild our military and once and for all see to the proper care of our veterans.”

Mr. Trump: “I see, thank you for that. What type of staff can I expect to have?”

Washington: “Well, of course you’ll have the usual department heads reporting to you. In fairness, we should tell you that you will have to fight for each one of your nominations. The current head of the FBI and several of his assistants have made clear that they don’t like you and will do everything in their power to undermine you. In your cover letter you noted that your pick for the Department of Justice would be current Senator Jeff Sessions.  That is fine, however he will recuse himself from the Russia collusion investigation.”

 Trump: “Russia collusion investigation?”

Washington: “Yes.  Once we announced that you were one of the two applicants, the FBI Director informed us that they would be investigating you for possible collusion with Russia. Will that be a problem Mr. Trump?”

 Trump: “There’s been no collusion so I am a little confused by this but, no problem, I like challenges.”

Washington: “We should tell you that the Left has made it clear, that if you are chosen for this job, they will make every effort to impeach you.  Are there any other questions we can answer for you Mr. Trump?”

Trump: “Impeach me; on what grounds?”

Washington: “Funny you should ask.  We asked the same thing.  After listening to them for over two hours, this committee has determined that the only grounds that they have is that they don’t like you and want the other applicant.”

 Trump: “Interesting.  May I ask who the other applicant is?”

Washington: “She has asked us to keep that confidential.”

Trump: “You do realize that she is the biggest liar, maybe ever, right?”

Washington: “To whom you are referring?”

Trump: “It’s not important.  I appreciate the time you’ve spent with me this afternoon. Tell me, what does the job pay?”

Washington: “It depends. If the job goes to the other applicant we expect it will cost us our nation. What will it take to get you on the team?”

Trump: “The job sounds challenging, interesting and I really love the people I’d be working for. I’d do the job for free.  Would that be of interest to you?”

Washington: “Free? You mean that you’ll take the job without being paid anything?”

Trump: “Yes, that’s what I mean. My payment will be the personal satisfaction I would get by fixing everything that is broken and in Making America Great Again.”

Washington: “You’re hired. When can you start?”

President Trump: “I already have.”

The President kept another campaign promise by pulling the U.S. out of the Obama Iran nuclear deal. This of course, has caused outrage among the Left and all of “yesterday’s” political who’s who have come out with “the sky is falling” statements. According to them, the United States will never be trusted again on the world stage, our European partners will turn to our enemies for support, including trade and Iran will increase production of nuclear materials now. And the list goes on.

First, the United States didn’t really make a deal, not in the true since. This deal wasn’t even a treaty between nations because Obama never brought the deal to congress for ratification. This so called deal was between several nations and Obama. So, one man with a pen cut a deal with arguably our worst enemy. He gave them over a hundred billion dollars in US cash, released five terrorist being held in Gitmo and in return, Iran agreed to slow, not stop, their nuclear ambitions. In fact, the deal allowed Iran to produce nukes after seven years, so long as they comply with the terms of the deal; which they have not. Following the deal, Iran held 15 or more US sailors and videoed taped them on their knees with their hands over their heads. Following that, they continued to shoot off missiles and kill American soldiers in Syria and Iraq. All of these acts were strictly prohibited in the agreement. Obama and our European allies simply turned their heads as if none of this was happening.

The thing is; the Iran deal was nothing more than Obama attempting to boost his record as world peace president. Hs legacy was always more important to him than protecting America or the world, for that matter.
President Trump said, during his campaign “The Iran deal is the worst deal of all time.” He continued to say this after being elected and didn’t pull out of it until this week. I suspect because he finally, after 15 months in office, has surrounded himself with people that understand the danger of the agreement and as important, understand him.

Like North Korea, every president in my lifetime has stated that the U.S. will never allow Iran to have nuclear weapons. Also like North Korea, every president except this one has done nothing to truly stop the spread of these weapons. All presidents have talked a big game and in the process have given away hundreds of billions of tax payer dollars trying to buy their way out of these threats. In each case, they have come up empty handed. In all cases these two countries have out-smarted us and have gone back on their word. Reagan’s “trust but verify” was never followed by Bush one, Bush two, Clinton, and certainly not Obama.

When Trump came into office, North Korea was shooting of ballistic missiles that can reach the mainland and an Iran deal that provides Iran with approval to go full-nuclear in seven years. Obama’s deal with Iran only prevented Iran’s nuclear ambitions during Obama’s terms, but not the next President’s term. How anyone can feel good about that deal is frightening. How a U.S. President can have the power to provide billions of dollars to a country that publically proclaims “Death to America” on a regular basis is mind boggling. They burn our flag, burn pictures of our presidents and kill our men and women regularly. I would argue that Obama committed treason. He certainly did not make America or the world safer with this fake deal.

While the Left scream the world is coming to an end, I would say that President Trump, by backing out of the deal, simply reset the field with Iran (and the world) back to reality. It does no one any good to keep our heads in the sand pretending that Iran is playing fair and everything is fine. For God’s sake, Obama’s deal didn’t even allow us to inspect their military nuclear sites. So much for the verify part of the deal.

Other than Israel who praised the president and had all but begged Obama not to agree to the deal, all of our European allies have denounced the president and announced their desire to continue the deal. China and Russia of course like the deal.

In June, President Trump will meet with North Korea’s leader to discuss the complete dismantling of their nuclear program. Finally we have a President that does believe in trust but verify. This meeting will provide promises we can agree with but it will also ensure results; or their will be no deal. In the meantime, heavy sanctions will be reinstated with Iran. Those sanctions will be held in place until Iran comes back to the table or worse case, see the complete forced destruction of their nuclear sites. While all of this is scary and dangerous, pretending that there is no issue is far more dangerous. Ignoring a country who tells you that they want to kill you is not an option. Remember, the only way to stop a bully is to be a bigger bully.
The Europeans will come around. They are always slow on the uptake. Trust me, they need us far more than we need them. China will do nothing and Russia, who continue to pretend they are big boy players on the world stage are weak, broke and will also be defeated if they engage in this battle.
Trump did the right thing. Allowing this deal to continue, would have forced us to provide nuclear weapons to Israel and Saudi Arabia. How would a Middle East filled with nuclear capabilities make the world a safer place?

The entire region has been at war with each other all of my life (and long before that). If you think that the president’s cancellation of the Iran agreement is frightening, picture these crazy ass people all having nukes.
While I don’t want to get ahead of myself because there is much to do, I believe the world and history will be kind to the President and the United States for standing up against these small rouge nations whose history is to cause death and destruction both inside and outside their borders.
The Left has been proven wrong at every turn and the outcome of this move by Trump will be no different. Keep the faith and never say whoa during a hard pull.

Over a year into the “so called” Russian Collusion Investigation the American people still know very little. Either, special prosecutor Mueller has kept his findings close to his vest or he has no findings. If you listen to any of the main stream media or the liberal left democrats, Trump’s days are numbered. If you listen to Fox News and republican controlled house Intel committee, Mueller, Comey and his band of FBI investigator’s days are numbered. The President, of course continues to say that there is no Trump collusion; only Comey, Hillary, Obama collusion. The debate continues and one wonders, at what cost to the nation.

“So, what are we to believe?”  The Intel committee has been asking for, and now demanding information from the FBI and DOJ.  Director Sessions continues to allow the slow walk, and in some cases, no walk regarding all the requested information.  He claims national security concerns are the reason. This is code for “we don’t want you to have anything.”  This may be the most confusing part of this mess. Jeff Sessions was one of the President’s first supporters. Why doesn’t he release everything? Many in his own party are now against him. In the twitter world he is considered a snow flake, a part of the deep state, a part of the Washington Swamp.

This week there is a good chance that the republican held Intel Committee will file contempt charges against Mr. Sessions if he doesn’t release the requested documents by a certain date. That’s a pretty big deal. There has only been one AG ever charged with contempt. That was Obama’s AG, Eric Holder. Prior to that, this had never happened. Never. That’s how serious and frustrated the Intel Committee has become. However, many of us have long since run out of respect and patience with congress; feeling that they should have filed charges months ago.

While I am pretty frustrated too, I keep wondering if Sessions is actually protecting the President in some unknown way. He certainly has information that others don’t have. By releasing the requested documents will they (the docs) reveal something that would harm the President? By concealing the documents is he protecting the country itself? Will the information bring out past actions that would put the country in a bad light around the world? Does Sessions fear that the release of the information will expose Washington’s past corruption?

It’s just so hard for me to believe that Sessions is purposely protecting the deep state, Comey, Hillary and Obama because you know there was no love lost between them. Having said that, I still haven’t forgiven him for recusing himself from anything Russia in the first place. Obama’s two AGs didn’t cower, no matter what went on. On the surface, Sessions looks like he is afraid of his own shadow but, I also wonder if he is the only adult in the room, stuck in the middle of the biggest scandal in history. If I could talk to him, I would tell him that the American people want the truth and we can handle the truth.

This past week, we finally saw a Judge throw the bullshit flag on Mueller. The Judge called Mueller out and told him he would not grant Mueller anything until Mueller presented the Judge with the back-up documents laying out the case. The Right, me included, is hailing the Judge as a true American Patriot. The Judge told Mueller he isn’t allowed to do anything that he wants in order to bring down the President of the United States. Amen Judge, Amen.

My guess is that most Americans are tired of the whole thing and are more interested in getting on to the business of making America great again. While both political sides point fingers Congress has an approval rating of 14%. The President enjoys a 51% approval rating. Seems like the American people have spoken, again. Yet the games continue.

So I ask, “What are we to believe?” Sadly, all indications point to the fact that it doesn’t matter what we believe. The out of control Washington elites are running the show leaving the rest of us in the dark. While Washington plays their political games, we the people, continue to scratch our heads in wonderment. Meanwhile, justice has become the biggest laughing stock of the nation. Most Americans no longer believe equal justice even exists and justifiably so.

I leave you with this final thought, if we have any hope for restored equal justice and any hope to clean up the Washington swamp, it is with this President. President Trump is the right person. He may be the only person who has the courage and the staying power to see through the cleansing of the deep state and the long standing Washington theft of the American Dream.
