Month: August 2018

For a month, we watched and prayed for a different outcome for this beautiful young woman who had disappeared. We heard and watched her father plea for help and wondered how he could even stand-up, much less speak.

This week, the story ended like so many others. They found this precious girl’s lifeless body lying in a Iowa corn field. We learned that she had been killed by yet another illegal alien. Alien, not immigrant, alien.

I don’t even begin to pretend what her parents and friends are feeling right now. Their lives have been turned upside; down never to be as it once was.

There are many, too many murders in this country every day. The fact that this one and so many others was preventable makes it so much harder to accept. It makes me so mad and so sad it is difficult to put into words.

Even having learned about this sad moment the politics kept going.  It always does. It is hard to understand why so many of our fellow citizens are apparently so opposed to increasing their safety. We finally have a President that has made it one of his top priorities. He wants to build a wall to help protect us from illegal entry into our country, to help slow the flow of drugs, and to stop the human trafficking.  Yet those in the opposing party dislike him so much that they are willing to put us at risk rather than agree to help. Even worse, by their actions, they openly put non-citizens ahead of citizens. They want this President gone.  They want it so badly that they are willing to do and say anything to accomplish their goal. Simply said, it’s power and politics over the health and safety of those they are elected to serve.

On CNN, Elizabeth Warren said, in reference to Mollie Tibbett’s being murdered, “I know this is hard for the family, but they have to remember that we need to focus on the real problems, like illegals not being separated from their families.”  She made this statement without remorse. Doesn’t she know that an American child has been separated from her family permanently? Sure she does, but she and so many others on the Left could not miss an opportunity to                                                                                          be on television and take a swipe at                                                                                      the President.

When a guest contributor on MSNBC was speaking about the death of Mollie, she said, “Instead of focusing on some girl in Iowa, we should be talking about the fact that two key people in the Trump Administration were just found guilty.” Some girl in Iowa… That is what an American life means to this woman. I read this on twitter. I responded by saying I am sure this black contributor doesn’t spend any time talking about the many deaths occurring every day in Chicago either. It’s obvious that American lives are not important to these people.  What is important to them is getting us to believe how horrible our President is.

When we get to a point that our elected officials no longer place the health and safety of the people who elected them over everything else, we can be sure that America as we know it is gone.

I am what one would describe as, a political junkie. I am reading and watching everything political for many, many hours per day, seven days a week. I can honestly share with you that I cannot give you a single name of a single democrat in congress that has done or said anything to make me believe they care about us. It is all “down with Trump”, and protect the illegals.

According to the reports, this illegal alien has been in the country for five or more years. During his first hearing today he had an interpreter. So, either he was doing what so many of these people do, faking it or he has been in the country for all those years and still doesn’t speak English. Based on his age he would be one of Obama’s so called dreamers. President Trump was right when he said “Trust me, they (Mexico, Central America) aren’t sending us their best and brightest.”

How many more deaths at the hands of an illegal alien must we endure until we allow the President to help make us safer? The wall isn’t the end-all solution; but if Mollie was your daughter and the wall could have kept this man out of the country, wouldn’t you want it built?

Rest in peace dear Mollie. I am so very sorry this happened to you and so sorry that we’ve let you and your family down. You had so much life left to give. Please forgive us and know we will honor your life by fighting for others. God Bless You. You are not some girl in Iowa, you are Mollie Tibbetts, a beautiful young American.

It is not nice to kick someone when they’re down and if I thought, even for one minute, anyone on the Left would agree with that, I wouldn’t be so quick to point out the utter failures promulgated by the Left this week.

In no particular order, I’ll start with the far Left governor of New York, Mr. Cuomo. Every now and then, someone has a slip of the tongue and they give us a glimpse into their true feelings. During a speech this week, Cuomo, when speaking about President Trump’s “Make American Great” platform, he said, and I quote “America has never been that great.”  Even his far Leftist hate America audience gasped at this, some even booed. Governor Cuomo has spent every day since then attempting to explain his comment away. News Flash: It’s not working Governor.

It is, and always has been my honest opinion, that most of the democrats feel as Cuomo feels. They just haven’t come right out and said it. Remember when Obama was President and was asked if he thought America was exceptional? Very aggravated by the question, he responded in a very nonchalant manner; “Yes I think America is exceptional, just as other countries think their country is exceptional.”  I translated that to what he really said which was, “No, we are no more exceptional than any other country.” Just remember, he was the President of the United States.  Cuomo’s comment is now being compared to Hillary’s famous “Basket of Deplorables”.  If you don’t know what that is then none of this means anything to you.

As for Cuomo, that slip of the tongue will not age well.

At the start of the week, Hillary jumped onto twitter to applaud an 11 year girl who chose to kneel during the national Anthem at her school. Ms. “I wanted to be President”, lying Hillary, congratulated the young girl for standing up (you know what I mean) for what she believes. This is just another example of the Left not loving or respecting America.  As for the kid, I don’t know about you, but when I was 11, I was more interested in catching crawdads, riding my bike and trading soda bottles in for money so that I could buy a popsicle than in making any political statement. Does anyone want to guess where her parents stand when it comes to America? The most amazing part of this story was hearing that the teacher was upset by the girl’s action. That gives me some hope. Way to go Teach!

Early in the week, some hundred-plus newspapers joined together to unite against the President for what they believe is his promotion to get rid of free speech. I know what you’re thinking; they continued to do what they always do.  Like they always do, they took a comment he made last week where he accused fake news of being the enemy of the people. Where have you heard that before? The media turned that statement into the President saying “The media is the enemy of the people” and they left out the part about “fake news” being the enemy. Sadly, this is what millions upon millions of Americans heard when they stupidly tuned into any one of the main stream media shows last week. Perfect example of fake news, the very thing they are outraged over.

That was a long way around the bush; bringing us to the next thing that happened this week which gives the Left/Dems another black eye and further points out their obvious hypocritical behavior.

The Left’s new super star, Cortez; she’s the young women who won the midterm primary election over a 10 year senate democrat. Ms. Cortez has since become famous because she has openly favored America becoming a socialist country. She’s gained a lot of attention on the Right as someone with very shallow depth of knowledge. In several interviews since winning, she has been unable to answer fairly basic questions. This week she held a town hall meeting in New York and guess what she did? She banned all media from attending and covering the meeting.  E.g. she was against free speech. Don’t worry though, none of the main stream media nor will any of the hundred plus newspapers cover this story so she’s good…

To wrap-up this post, probably the worst part of the Democrat’s week came when the President’s approval rating hit 50% which is several points higher than Obama’s approval was at the same time in his Presidency. Even more damaging than that is his jump to 36% approval among the Black American community. That is huge! Only 14% voted for him. Many say that if the President gets 25% of the black vote in 2020 his opponents are toast.

Oh well Democrats, one week doesn’t make a year. Keep swinging and maybe, just maybe you’ll have a good week very soon. If it helps at all, to score a victory it would be in your best interest to at least pretend you love America. It would also help if you developed some sort of platform that actually puts the American citizen ahead of illegals, terrorists, kneeling millionaire football players, and plastic straws. Oh, and get treatment for your TDS.

On Tuesday voters went to the polls to cast their ballots in Ohio for an open House seat previously held by a Republican.

The republican candidate was trailing his democratic opponent by double digits. Thanks to the President, who held a rally last week for the republican candidate, the race became a near tie going into Election Day.

The republican squeaked out a lead with less than a 2,000 vote difference. The state is now counting absentee ballots which could sway the election to the Democrat. The general opinion is that the Republican will maintain his lead and go on to be declared the winner. As they say though, it ain’t over until the fat lady sings.

A republican has held this seat in Ohio for many decades, so why suddenly was this race so close? The answer is turnout. The Democrats turned out their voters in much greater numbers than the Republicans. This is the exact same thing that gave us Obama for a second term.

In many ways, this mid-term election may be the most important mid-term election of our lifetime. It certainly is every bit as important as the last Presidential election.

The people did what almost no one thought was possible by electing President Trump. Remember there were no polls who gave the President a chance of winning.  But, the American silent majority came out and voted; turning the election over to the President and half of the country is still in denial over this.

I am very disappointed in the electorate. We are flirting with complete disaster by not getting out the vote and not voting period. My guess is that many Republicans committed the ultimate sin. They “assumed” the Republican would win this race because a Republican has held the seat for so long. We all know what assume means and it couldn’t be truer than in this case.

We did all this work to get the President elected. We beat all the odds and put this President into office. The President is making good on his promises thus there is nothing for us to complain about.  Yet, by not voting we are actually voting against the President that we just elected.

Just think about it. If the Republicans had a super majority in congress we would be much, much further down the road to Making America Great Again. With a super majority we would have already over turned Obamacare. We would have a new, improved immigration law. The wall would be much further along. The tax cuts would be permanent, the second Supreme Court nominee would have already been approved and infrastructure improvements would be in process.

Instead we are stuck in the same old Washington DC deep state mud because we don’t have enough Republicans in the Senate to allow the President’s agenda items to pass.

We owe it to ourselves and the President to get out the vote, to get off the sofa and make the effort. We need to encourage our families, our friends and co-workers to vote. Our country depends upon it. We learned in the last election that our vote does matter. To sit back now and not vote is simply unacceptable.

The Left are on a mission to destroy our Republic. They have clearly shown us what they stand for and trust me, it’s not for you or me or America in general. At every turn they stand for everything that is anti-America and anti-Trump. They want open borders even though not a week goes by where an illegal kills one of our own. They want to eliminate ICE, whose single mandate is to keep us safe. They want socialism even when they cannot point to any example where socialism has worked.  In fact, in every case it has been a complete failure and a disaster for the people who are forced to live that way. They want to and will impeach the President if they gain control in Congress. That’s very clear.

I implore all of you to find out when your state primary elections are scheduled and make plans to vote and to get the word out to all those around you to do the same. This is so important. This is our time to stand up and be counted. Don’t assume anything.  Get this done. It is important for all of us. We may never again have a President like this one who is not a politician and who is willing to fix so many wrongs in our Government. We must give him the power he needs to do the work of the people, not the work of the Government. Don’t treat this like just another election.  It is not.  It is the most important election in your lives.
