Musings on the
Week
April 13, 2019
Constitution – "We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution." Abraham Lincoln.
Politics – After 675 days of
investigation, 2,800 subpoenas, 500 warrants, and 500 interviews with the
release of the Mueller Report,
we finally know there never was any collusion between President Trump or his campaign and the Russian government, nothing
but false charges, innuendo, slander, and a smear campaign by sore losers and
megaphone media.
Politics – Trump was
known for his TV catchphrase, “You’re
fired!” so why are
people surprised that he continues to replace Cabinet appointees who do
not deliver results?
Politics – The vast
majority of people who are against socialism and communism either lived under
or remember the abysmal conditions under socialism and communism.
Politics – In the Democrat Party failure qualifies you for higher office
as first “Beto”
O’Rourke loses his Senatorial bid and now Mayor
de Blasio proves as he moves New York City
closer to bankruptcy, he joins the gaggle of failed
politicians yearning to run for President.
Politics – The “bad news”
is the 2020 Democrat primary field offers many intersectionality permutations for voters to choose
from, but they are all are trying to appear more
leftist.
Politics – The “good news”
is the 2020 Democrat primary field is huge and will waste
a lot of money disparaging each other to gain the nomination prior to the general election.
Politics – Reparations are
naked redistribution of wealth
to close financial gap between African-Americans and other Americans, and nothing about redemption or reconciliation.
Politics – Trump’s reelection chances continue to rise as Democrat
presidential candidates “out left” each other with ill-conceived,
unaffordable and unworkable campaign proposals.
Media – After propping up Obama’s
approval for eight years, the mainstream media has been mostly negative
to Trump but his approval
rating is higher at the same time in office.
Media – Republican should match
actions to words, boycotting all appearances and
interviews with “fake” mainstream
media: ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, MSNBC, CNN, NYT, WaP.
Truth - “I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.” Abraham Lincoln.
Economy – The Trump
tax and deregulation reform, which Speaker
Pelosi called “the worst disaster in history”, maintains
a full employment, noninflationary economy with rising family purchasing power
and a growing workforce.
Labor – Since the Supreme Court
decision prohibited forcing nonmembers to pay “agency fees”, union
membership fell to 10.5% in 2018 with only 6.4% of private sector membership,
with the AFSCME losing 98% of agency fee payers and
SEIU losing 94% of agency payers.
Internet
– Documents
confirm Google maintains a “XPA news blacklist”, implementing their "misrepresentation
policy" and the "good neighbor policy" that targets conservative outlets.
Immigration – There are 82 miles of border wall completed now, mainly from
renovating existing fencing, another 97 miles by
the yearend, and another 277 miles the year after that.
Energy – The Achilles heel of
alternative energy production is that there is no
disruptive technology pipeline that can deliver components necessary for uninterrupted
service.
Environment – The last
three warming periods, the Minoan (Bronze Age), Roman (Iron Age) and
Medieval (High Middle Ages), corresponded with
large advances in global culture, science and technology, and were all
much warmer than our current temperatures.
Education – There are 24 states and the District of Columbia that require public
schools to teach Sex Education – who approved the content of this
indoctrination?
Sexuality – The medical term "transsexual"
was introduced in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)
in 1980; the 1994 DSM introduced the term ‘gender identity disorder’; then
2013 DSM stopped transgenderism being an identity disorder,
but merely a “dysphoria” or an unpleasant feeling completing
its transformation to “normality”.
Crime – Criminal aliens
make up nearly 20% of the population in U.S. federal prisons, with the vast majority of
criminal aliens being Mexican nationals.
Crime – The “hate crime surge” is a false
narrative
because the number of hate crime hoaxes actually exceeds the number of
convictions with the majority never happened.
Failure – “The probability that we may fail in the struggle ought not to deter us from the support of a cause we believe to be just.” Abraham Lincoln.
Iran – President Trump has designated
the Islamic Revolutionary Guard as a Foreign Terrorist
Organization and Iran as a State Sponsor of
Terror, promoting terrorism as a tool of statecraft.
