Musings on the
Week
February 16, 2019
Immigration – “Any man who says he is an American, but something else
also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the
American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the
English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people.” Theodore
Roosevelt.
Politics – The Republican
2020 political strategy should be to debunk the
socialism myth and expose each program in the Democrat
“Green New Deal” as
ineffective, unachievable and unaffordable, and then unveil next steps in the MAGA plan to “Build on America’s
Success.”
Politics – No matter how much the Democrats demonize
President Trump, they will fail in direct proportion to their openness about their
radical leftist agenda.
Politics – It seems that Americans on the left and on the right now
occupy “alternate realities,” and those of us on the right
can only pity the Left their self-induced (but media-abetted) culture of doom, aggrievement and vilification.
Politics – Since Congress was unable to fund building the border wall in its budget
resolutions, President Trump
was forced to resort to declaring a “national
emergency” to get it done.
Politics – The “Green New Deal” wish
list demonstrates the absurd Democrat future: a
meatless, car-less, plane-less existence where we shuffle to work every day so
that we can pay our gargantuan energy bills and support those “unwilling to work.”
Politics – The Democrat
political strategy is attack Trump with “death by a thousand cuts”, from Congressional
investigations and Southern District of New York investigations, meanwhile distracting Democrats from doing anything useful, or politically
viability.
Politics – Ilhan Omar (D-Minneapoli-stan), Rashida Tlaib (D-Dearborn-istan) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Illegalalien-istan) are the poster children for
the new Alinskyite-Socialists.
Politics – Antifa is the 21st
century equivalent of the 19th century Ku Klux Klan, providing the terrorist action
wing of the Democrat Party to enforce unpalatable policies.
Politics – How many times must
we hear that no evidence was found of any collusion between Trump
and the Russians on the 2016 election before Congress admits the politically
inspired Mueller investigation was a complete waste of
time and resources?
Politics – It is clear that the U.S. government, far more than the Russian one, interfered in
the 2016 campaign, with the Obama administration using
its power to investigate Hillary Clinton’s opponent and leaking
that information to sympathetic members of the press to
hurt Trump.
Media – The mainstream media pretends
that the President is universally hated overseas, but Trump
is actually a hero to the growing number of anti-globalist populists around the
world.
Immigration – “Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country.” Theodore Roosevelt.
Labor – There are more than 91,000 federal employees who out-earn the
governor of their states, even some painters, mechanics, electricians,
and welders who out-earn governors.
Healthcare – The Democrat Medicare-for-All focus is on insuring everyone, but
does not guarantee access to actual medical care, which
is where every single-payer system fails.
Healthcare – The public has already been
burnt once with ObamaCare broken promises, so we now
know that “Medicare-for-All”
will abolish private insurance for everyone.
Emergency – There is something wrong with
the process to declare a National Emergency when these “temporary” Executive Orders
remain open for decades, with no end in sight.
Civil Rights – The Trump administration
is withdrawing support for the “disparate-impact” theory which
asserts that statistical disparities can be proof of discrimination when no
intention is clear, which has been misused to find racial
bias where it does not exist.
Sexuality – Gender theory is a tragic
hoax perpetrated by angry, jealous leftists threatened by the self-evident truth of human
nature, formed man and woman together.
Immigration – “There is no room in this country for hyphenated
Americanism. The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of
preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to
permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities.” Theodore
Roosevelt.
Foreign Policy - "America First" is not
a policy of hate or exclusivity, but rather, it means that we look
out for our own first, and thus are better able to help others.
