AB-AU It is apparent that the Democrat politicians are following a pattern they have followed since President Trump first took office. It you want to prevent people from investigating your crimes, you blame them on your opponent. When suspicions began to leak of Clinton’s dealings with the Russians, she set up the fake reports to implement Trump and they pushed an investigation of him based on the fake report. The media picked up the accusations and worked to turn voters against Trump to insure a Democrat victory, however, it failed. The Democrats in Congress then pushed the impeachment trial and continued it despite the lack of any supporting evidence. They abruptly ended the investigation when it revealed that Clinton had created the documents to prevent investigation into her dealings with the Russians. They then pushed another impeachment trial blaming Trump for Jan 6 and suppressed evidence showing Trump tried to prevent it by calling for National Guard troops to protect the capital but Nancy Pelosi rejected the request, leaving the capital unprotected. They continued to claim Trump was illegally nullifying the executive orders that Obama created when Obama had no  authority to make them and Trump was just removing them from the books. In fact many of Obama’s executive orders openly violated federal law. He sent a lot of money to Planned Parenthood to spread abortions here and overseas in spite of federal laws which prohibited federal funds from supporting abortion both here and abroad. In addition, they now cry that Trump is planning to destroy Medicare and Social Security in spite of the fact that Biden made severe cuts to Medicaid payments shortly before leaving office that were not set to take effect until after Trump took office so they could blame the cuts on him. It is time that the real criminals are held accountable.

Making America Great Again-E

27 Feb

My wife and I saw this first hand when I broke my hip. We sent the bills to the insurance company for the company I worked for and they returned them saying the company forgot to add me to their medical insurance plan so they paid nothing. We had $10,000 in medical bills. We made agreements with everyone to pay them off in installments. After two years, we had paid off everyone except the surgeon and the hospital. Suddenly, we got a notice that the surgeon’s bill had been taken over by a collection agency and was due in full within two days or it would be sent to court. We consulted a lawyer who told us that we didn’t need a lawyer, all we had to do was show the court we had paid as agreed and the court would throw out the case. However, it never went to court, the judge just signed off on a court order requiring us to pay the money, plus court costs. A court worker later told us the collection agency never came to court, the judge just signs off on the cases and they collect the money plus court costs. We consulted a lawyer who said they couldn’t do that legally and we could appeal it but it wouldn’t help because we would still owe the money plus we would have to pay even more court costs. We signed an agreement with the court to pay it off but after my wife and I deposited our paychecks in the bank, and we wrote checks to cover our bills, the checks started bouncing. The court had seized our paychecks as soon as they hit the bank without notifying us. We consulted another lawyer who told us he could not help us. He could tell us what the court could do legally but the court saw no reason to obey the law so any advice he gave us would not do us any good. Formerly a judge would be disbarred and sent to prison for such actions, but now it is accepted as normal. However, one day those judges will stand before God who will hold them accountable.

 

 

Making America Great Again-D

27 Feb

Liberals have also attacked the rule of Law. It is an old saying that he who makes the law can change the law. With man, if someone makes the law, they can change it when they want. They can ignore it when it effects their friends and use it to harass or punish those they don’t like. We are seeing this openly today where judges ignore the law and rule however they want. If you don’t want a baby, you just declare it’s not a person and is not protected by the law. Then you can kill it and not worry about being prosecuted. However, when God makes the law, no man can change it. David thought he could do what he wanted but Samuel confronted him and reminded him that he was not above the law. The law applies to the king as well as the pauper. A French visitor to the United States once remarked how strange it was to see a car sitting at a stop light waiting for it to change when there were no police or other cars around. Americans respected the law. Now they take their cue from the politicians who ignore the law whenever it suits their purpose. We see it on the highway where people ignore speed limit signs and even stop signs.

It is interesting to see liberals crying because President Trump is making so many cuts to the budget by firing federal workers. President Biden deliberately trashed the economy by spending billions of dollars in the last  three months in office with no authorization from Congress, in order to fuel inflation and make it difficult for President Trump to control it. A lot of it has been untraceable and a lot of it that has been was traced to companies connected to Democrat Congressmen like Stacey Abrams. That is in addition to expanding the national debt to seven times what  it was when he took office. That is going to take a lot of cutting to balance the budget because those expenditures were not in the budget. The Balanced Budget Amendment requires budget cuts equal to every new expenditure. Democrats have consistently gotten around it by constantly forcing increases in the debt ceiling to allow them to continue taxing and spending. That has got to stop. You can only increase the debt so far before you are paying so much interest that you aren’t paying anything on the principle. Then it becomes a Black hole you can’t get out of. There has also been very little oversight of the government agencies in recent years and there has been a tremendous amount of waste building  up. Liberal Congressmen claim President Trump has no authority to make cuts in the various agencies which shows how ignorant they are of the Constitution. The agencies are part of the executive branch and are under the direct supervision of the President with the oversight of the Senate. The President appoints the agency heads and oversees their operation. President Biden did not hesitate to manipulate the agencies to promote his agendas. For instance, he authorized the Post Office to deliver abortion pills to States that did not allow abortion and authorized Veteran’s hospitals to perform abortions in those States in violation of State laws. If President Biden has the authority to order the agencies to violate the law, President Trump definitely has the authority to order them to obey the law.

 

 

Making America Great Again-A

14 Feb

President Trump’s slogan of making America great again appeals to a lot of older people who remember America’s golden age in the 1960s and 1970s when the economy was booming, jobs were plentiful, and our streets were safe. While the threat of nuclear war cast a shadow on the prosperity, times were generally good. Russia knew they could not conquer us with their military because America had a great military. They also knew they couldn’t seize control of the government because Americans would resist and Americans were well armed due to the Second Amendment allowing citizens to own guns. However they had one thing America did not have, and that was patience. They knew that if you chip away at a foundation long enough, eventually the house will fall. It might take  three or four generations, but they were willing to wait.  Like Satan in the  Garden of Eden, socialism appeals to man’s greed. Europe fell fairly quickly because Christianity there was mostly an empty shell. Europeans had long ago given up belief in God even though they retained the outward appearance. America still retained a strong church that taught Christian values and those values were widely accepted beyond the church. The Socialists knew that strong Christians would not support their humanist values. Respect for life, the rule of law, and the value of the individual and personal property are deadly to those who seek to take over the world. Total control requires elimination of your opponents, twisting the law to your advantage, and seizing personal property. In addition, it requires submission of the individual to their control. Dictators require total obedience and those who put obedience to God first will not obey those who want to be the first and the only authority, when that authority requires them to disobey God. They knew that to overthrow America they would have to break down its allegiance to God, which was the foundation of our success.

The various government departments were established to provide a means to carry out the laws passed of Congress. The President is charged with overseeing them with the help of the Senate. Over time, Congress got lazy and began passing vague laws and allowed the departments to flesh out the policies and carry them out. As a result, the various departments have become a law unto themselves and have run rough over the American people, openly abusing their powers. Often departments and agencies have seized property and punished those who resisted with no oversight and leaving innocent citizens with no legal recourse. President Biden used the various agencies and department to get around laws and opposition through executive orders directing them to openly violate federal and State laws. He distributed billions of dollars to Planned Parenthood for abortions here and overseas and used agency power to force foreign nations to accept abortions, in spite of federal laws which prohibit federal funds going to support abortions here or overseas. He directed the veterans hospitals to perform abortions in States that prohibited it and directed the Post Office to facilitate the delivery of abortion drugs to States that had outlawed abortion. Such an abuse of power and violation of federal laws would have gotten any former President impeached but Democrats prevented an investigation. Many people think President Trump is being too heavy-handed but he only has four years to clean out a deeply entrenched bureaucracy.

Government agencies have no real incentive to cut costs. The government has free reign to tax and can demand more taxes when they want to spend more. A practice that President Biden has made full use of. The government has no competition to force them to cut costs and often pads its organization with useless administration positions. The department heads who have been appointed as rewards for supporting the party owe their allegiance to the party. Since their experience is mainly in politics, they have little experience in running things efficiently. It is time we turned  the government over to those who have know how to run organizations efficiently. President Trump is the first President in recent times that has a business background and was not a career politician. He entered his first term with a good understanding of business, but with very little understanding of politics and he was hampered by not having a majority in both houses which made it difficult for him to accomplish much. However, he learned a lot the first time and has been working hard since then so he has come to his second term well prepared for dealing with Congress and the Deep State. He has sought to fill key offices in the departments with people who are well experienced in running large corporations and know how to cut red tape and streamline organizations, rather than political appointees with very little experience.Businesses have to cut waste as much as possible to keep costs down so they do not price their products out of the market.

It seems that FEMA suddenly had lots of money because they rushed aid to California while the wildfires were still burning out of control. It is a serious abuse of power to use government funds to help California when they still had not sent aid to those in N. Carolina who was still struggling to recover after  the Hurricanes that hit it, just because California voted for Democrats while N. Carolina did not. Government help should not be given out on the basis of political affiliation since tax dollars come from taxpayers without regard to political affiliation. The President is supposed to look out for the welfare of the whole country, not just those who voted for him and he has no right to use taxpayer funds to reward his friends and ignore his political opponents. Numerous FEMA workers surveying the damage reported being told to bypass houses that had signs supporting Trump. It is high time for a thorough investigation of the way FEMA has been doing business to see  if this has been a long-standing practice or recent development and the people responsible should be held accountable.

It is interesting to see the liberal media attack anyone who gets in the way of what they want. Liberals are crying how President Trump is violating the Constitution and trashing the 14th Amendment. At issue is birthright citizenship. President Trump is seeking to enforce the 14th Amendment as it is written. It states “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. Liberals have been granting citizenship to babies of illegal immigrants and babies of women who crossed the border so their babies could be citizens of the United States. However, those babies don’t qualify because neither parent is “subject to the jurisdiction of the United States.” Since neither parent has established any legal status the babies don’t qualify. It will not effect those who have at least one parent who is here legally, only those who have come illegally. Since a great many babies have been illegally granted citizenship, it is going to create a real mess. We cannot simply pick and choose what part of a law we want to enforce.  The Amendment places two qualifications on citizenship and one alone is not sufficient. Liberals claim that President Trump is depriving these kids of their rights which sounds terrible but since the law never granted them that right, he is not depriving them of anything. He is merely restoring the rule of law and enforcing it as it was written.

Economics-EF

27 Jan

Democrats accuse the Republicans of refusing to negotiate on the debt limit, but they are refusing to do so as well. They have repeatedly pushed the budget to the deadline and then demanded Republicans give in and raise the debt limit. When Republicans refuse, they accuse Republicans of threatening the stability of the economy by refusing to raise the debt limit and allow Democrats to go on spending.  Now that Democrats no longer have the majority and the ability to raise the debt limit, they have decided to take a lesson from President Biden and simply designate the expenditures as outside the budget. By removing it from the budget, they can continue their wasteful spending without exceeding the spending limit. However, no matter how you look at it, the money comes out of the treasury and is paid for by working Americans. Politicians need to realize that the government doesn’t have an unlimited amount o f money. There comes a point where the American people cannot or will not support the out of control spending in Washington. The American people have to live within their income and the government should do so as well.
