THE DANES HAVE HAD IT WITH ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CRIMINALS

 We, the people, won't  concede this country to illegals and drug lords without trying to stop them

Taking more bad guys out of circulation and in jail etc = less crime in our society

December 7th, '1941 - DAY OF INFAMY'

Imperial Japanese Navy committed a sneak unprovoked attack early Sunday morning on Oahu, Hawaii USA Naval base. This happened while negotiators were in Washington and while most servicemen were sleeping or at church services, these actions were considered taboo or dishonorable by ancient Japanese worrier code called Bushido. The ultimate goal of Admiral Yokamoto was to rule the entire Pacific of any white sovereignty, but this devastating attack that murdered some 3,000 people including military civilians, MIAs had the opposite affect as in the Admiral's Harvard trained mind "I' m afraid we might have woken a sleeping giant." causing USA to finally close the ambitious Pacific war with the horrific atomic bombing of their major industrial cities.

Nota Bene:

We are still uncovering MIAs :-(

To all washed under the waves.......R.I.P.

Stories like this is never in the news;

it should be  !!!!   

 

When the Trump administration released its annual report to Congress on White House Office Personnel, It includes the name, status, salary and position title of all 377 White House employees an that Trump did not take a dime of his salary. 

The total annual White House salaries under Trump are $35.8 million vs. $60.9 million under Obama, a savings of $25.1 million.  There are 140 fewer employees on White House staff under Trump than under Obama at this point in their respective presidencies.

 

Thirty-nine fewer staffers are dedicated to The First Lady. Currently, there are only five staffers dedicated to Melania Trump vs. forty-four staffers who served Michelle Obama (FY2009) 

 

However, it's what the report said Trump did with this salary that has everyone talking. 

 

During his 2016 presidential campaign, Republican candidate Donald Trump,  vowed  that if elected he would forgo the $400,000 annual presidential salary. So has has handed over checks every three months for various projects overseen by different government departments. 

 

In the first quarter of 2017, President Trump  donated  $78,333 (his $100,000 salary for that quarter, after taxes) to the Department of the Interior, for the National Park Service’s maintenance of an historic Civil War site. His contribution was put towards two projects at Antietam National  Battlefield  in Maryland. 

 

In July 2017, the White House announced in a  press release  that President Trump had donated his second-quarter salary to a science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) camp for children, overseen by the Education Department. He signed over his third-quarter salary to the Department of Health and Human Services for a public awareness campaign about opioid  addiction , and the last of his 2017 salary went towards an infrastructure grant  program  overseen by the U.S. Department of Transportation. 

 

Trump continued his tradition in 2018, donating his first-quarter salary to the Department of  Veterans Affairs , a sum which then-Acting VA Secretary Robert Wilkie said had been earmarked for “caregiver support in the form of mental health and peer support programs, financial aid, education training, and research.” The president donated another quarter’s  salary  to the U.S. Small Business Administration for the purpose of establishing an “Emerging Leaders” program focused “on helping veterans start small businesses after military life.” 

 

Where's the media on this?

They don't cover anything decent the President does. 

 

 

People who follow politics, even casually, learn not to expect high moral standards from politicians. But there are some outrages that show a new low, even for politicians.

 

Among the consequences of Democrats' recent election victories, especially at the state and local levels, is the election of officials who have publicly announced their opposition to charter schools, and their determination to restrict or roll back the growth of those schools.

 

What have the charter schools done to provoke such opposition?

Often located in low-income, minority neighborhoods, these schools have in many cases produced educational outcomes far better than the traditional public schools in such neighborhoods.

 

A Success Academy charter elementary school in Harlem had a higher proportion of the children in one of its classes pass the statewide math exam than in any other class at the same grade level, anywhere in the state of New York.

As a result of the charter schools' educational achievements, it is not uncommon for thousands of children to be on waiting lists to get into such schools — in New York City, tens of thousands.

 

This represents a huge opportunity for many low-income, minority youngsters who have very few other opportunities for a better life. But, to politicians dependent on teachers' unions for money and votes, charter schools are expendable.

In various communities around the country, charter schools are already being prevented from moving into empty school buildings, which would allow them to admit more children from waiting lists.

 

Denying these children what can be their one chance in life is a new low, even for politicians.

Political rhetoric can camouflage what is happening. But the arguments against charter schools are so phony that anyone with a decent education should be able to see right through them. Unfortunately, the very failure of many traditional public schools to provide a decent education enables their defenders to get away with arguments that could not survive any serious analysis.

Consider the incessantly repeated argument that charter schools are "taking money away from the public schools." Charter schools are themselves public schools, educating children who have a legal right to be educated with taxpayer money set aside for that purpose. When some fraction of children move from traditional public schools to charter schools, why should the same fraction of money not move with them?

 

What is the money for, if not to educate children? The amount of taxpayer money spent per child in charter schools is seldom, if ever, greater than the amount spent per child in traditional public schools. Often it is less.

Another argument used in attacking charter schools is that, despite particular charter schools with outstanding results, by and large charter school students' results on educational tests are no better than the results in traditional public schools. Even if we accept this claim, it leaves out one crucial fact.

 

White students and Asian students together constitute a majority of the students in traditional public schools. Black students and Hispanic students together constitute a majority of the students in charter schools.

 

On virtually all educational tests, black and Hispanic students score significantly lower than white and Asian students. If charter schools as a whole just produce educational results comparable to those in traditional public schools as a whole, that is a big improvement.

If you want to make a comparison of educational results with comparable students, you can look at results among children living in the same neighborhood, at the same grade levels — and with both charter school children and children in a traditional school being educated in the very same building.

 

Such comparisons in New York City showed, almost every time, a majority of the students in the traditional public school scoring in the bottom half in both math and English, while the percentage of charter school students scoring in the top half was some multiple of the percentage of other students scoring that high.

 

This is what the teachers' unions and the politicians want to put a stop to. Who will speak up for those children?

Bill and Hillary Clinton keep going and going ... but are their batteries finally running low?

 

 

Is Clinton's stance on immigration in Europe hypocritical?

 

Clinton says Europe must control immigration to stop growing support for 'right-wing populists'; panel reaction on 'Hannity.'

In 1988, the  Energizer Bunny first appeared in U.S. TV commercials advertising Energizer batteries – and it’s still on commercials today. To make the point that the batteries last a very long time, the pink toy rabbit wearing sunglasses and beating a drum goes on and on,  drumming and rolling along on battery power. The tagline from the narrator has changed a bit over the years, but began as: “Nothing outlasts the Energizer, they keep going, and going, and going, and going ...”

 

In 1988 Bill Clinton had already been governor of Arkansas for five years and Hillary Clinton was the state’s first lady. They went on to the White House when Bill was elected president, and Hillary later became a U.S. senator from New York, secretary of state for President Obama, and a twice-failed presidential candidate.

 

But after all these years, the Clintons are still in the political spotlight today, as they just keep going, and going, and going, and going …

Bill and Hillary Clinton are the Energizer couple of politics. Might they secretly be battery-powered? Should a special counsel be appointed to investigate?

 

The Clintons just can’t stop, and don’t seem to realize they’ve overstayed their public welcome.

 

Once a bright young couple on the political stage, Bill is now 72 and Hillary is 71. But don’t expect them to settle down quietly in a retirement community where they can spend their days taking walks in the woods and sending (and deleting, and deleting, and deleting, and deleting) emails.

 

The Clintons absolutely cannot stand to stop making speeches, making TV appearances, trying to make news, trying to influence the Democratic Party and public policy, and – of course – making money.

At a time when young Democrats are trying to take over leadership of the party, people the age of their parents and grandparents refuse to give up or share power. We have seen this play out with 78-year-old House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi’s all-out effort to become Speaker of the House yet again in January.

 

In early October the Clintons announced that they would jointly be hitting the road on a speaking tour that would take them to 13 cities. They even went so far as to book safe Democratic harbors in hopes of assuring packed venues.

 

Cities like Philadelphia, Boston, Detroit, and Seattle were on the list. Ticket prices for “An Evening with the Clintons” initially were set from $59.50 to $375. At some venues, tickets were priced as high as $745.

Do they give out free cell phones and hammers as door prizes? Reset buttons? Whitewater rafting trips?

 

The Clintons chose Canada to open their tour and their first gig was held this week in a hockey arena in Toronto that seats about 19,000. The arena reported that the couple sold 3,300 tickets and it looked like it from photos released.  A headline in American Thinker summed it up: “Clintons’ speaking tour event in Toronto had 83% of the seats empty.”

 

The secondary ticket brokers like StubHub were hawking last-minute tickets for $6.55 in Canadian money, which translates to about $5 in U.S. money.

 

Like unpopular books on sale on the remainder table, the Clintons have had their price marked down – way down.

 

As a headline in The Star newspaper in Toronto said: “Hillary and Bill Clinton just won’t go away.”

 

The Clintons cannot be shamed. The humiliation of speaking to empty halls and stadiums from sea to shining sea must be tempered by hefty speaking fees, as they struggle to get by. Remember, back in 2014  Hillary told  ABC News: “We came out of the White House not only dead broke but in debt.”

 

Can anyone set up a GoFundMe page for Bill and Hillary? Maybe things are better for the struggling couple now, thanks to the Trump tax cuts.

 

The talk by the former first couple in Toronto was reported as consisting of rants and raves. It was an evening of Trump-bashing and what might have been.

 

Just imagine if Election Day in 2016 had seen Donald Trump defeated. Today first gentleman Bill could be tending to the Rose Garden, planning the White House Christmas decorations, redecorating the family quarters, and picking the menus for state dinners. And President Hillary could be breaking glass ceilings and cellphones, and  fighting what she once called the “vast right-wing conspiracy.”

The Clintons’ shtick in their appearances is a walk down memory lane, revenge, jokes only the most ardent Clinton lovers would find funny, fantasy and tag-team banter.

 

Juxtapose the Clintons’ speaking tour for profit and President Trump’s free-admission appearances to standing-room audiences and thousands waiting outside in cities all across America.

BREAKING NEWS: The Clintons ain’t what they used to be. They are desperately trying to stay relevant in a nation and a party that have long since moved on.

 

I feel sorry for Democrats. They are haunted by the ghosts of Democrats past. The only thing worse than the older Democrats are the younger ones who proudly proclaim themselves to be “democratic socialists.”

 

I remember a time that if you called a Democrat a “socialist” you were defaming him or her. Today, many younger Democrats are upset if you don’t  call them socialists.

 

Democrats are wrestling with an identity crisis: Who are they? What do they stand for? Who are their leaders?

One thing is for sure – America is Clintoned out. I predict that many Clinton appearances will have to be cancelled because not enough people will want to pay to hear their old stories.

What makes it even worse? It is rumored that Hillary is mulling a run for president again in 2020.

 

This couple just keeps going, and going, and going, and going …

New report reveals staggering number of migrants being treated for myriad of health issues, diseases in Tijuana

November 29, 2018 |  Frieda Powers |   

 

 

 

Tijuana health officials are reporting that many of the migrants who have come to the city with the caravan are suffering from serious medical issues like tuberculosis and chickenpox.

More than one-third of the 6,000 migrants now living in the Mexican city are being treated for respiratory infections and other health-related issues, a Tijuana Health Department spokesperson  told Fox News.

 

Data from the health department showed 101 migrants being treated for skin infections and lice while four cases of HIV/AIDS, four cases of chickenpox and three cases of tuberculosis were confirmed, according to Fox News reporter Griff Jenkins, reporting from the border. More than 60 percent of the 2,267 migrants treated so far have respiratory infections.

 

With the migrants camped out at the Benito Juarez Sports Complex near the San Ysidro U.S.-Mexico Port of Entry, officials fear a Hepatitis outbreak due to the unsanitary and crowded conditions as only about 1,000 people can be effectively cared for in the location which has only 35 bathrooms.

Tijuana is reportedly spending about $30,000 a day caring for the influx of migrants who plan to cross the border illegally onto the U.S. There is only enough funding to take care of the thousands of Central American migrants for a few more days, Tijuana Mayor Juan Manuel Gastelum said Tuesday.

“We won’t compromise the resources of the residents of Tijuana,” Gastelum said at a press conference, according to Fox News. “We won’t raise taxes tomorrow to pay for today’s problem.”

And the left continues to slam the Trump administration for not swinging open the border entries and allowing the illegal immigrants to freely enter the U.S. and drain Americans’ pockets to foot their medical bills.

 

An illegal immigrant is suing the United States for the death of her infant daughter.

Migrant sues US for $60 million after infant dies following release from family detention

The mother from Guatemala  alleged that her one-year-old contracted a respiratory illness at a family detention center in Dilley, Texas, six weeks after being released. How the mother who jumped the border in Texas risking her infant’s life managed to hire a law firm to pursue her claim is not clear but the wrongful-death claim was filed against several federal agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

 

Meanwhile, the alarming data from the Tijuana Health Department is coming out as scientists are investigating a new “mysterious illness” that seems to be affecting children.

A polio-like illness caused by a virus has been on the rise, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) which has launched a task force to learn more,  according to American Thinker, which reported: “The disease sleuths at the CDC are befuddled.”

 

The publication noted that scientists are “stumped” by Acute flaccid myelitis, or perhaps “for political reasons” don’t want to reveal too much.

“Perhaps the scientists have some ideas where AFM came from and why it is increasing in prevalence, but if they want to keep their jobs, pensions, and reputations, they feign ignorance,” Denver based physician Brian C. Joondeph wrote.

 

“A task force with a few scientists and many more non-scientists, skilled at media and public relations, will eventually announce their findings, scrubbed of anything politically incorrect or offensive to any of the many victim groups in America,” he added. “But it’s worth looking at who’s bringing this disease in, because it coincides with recent vast waves of illegal immigration.”

The article expounded the details of the new disease and looked into the politically incorrect questions surrounding illegal immigrants entering the U.S., bringing a slew of diseases with them.

“The answer for the CDC is not a bureaucratic and politically correct task force, but common-sense analysis and solutions,” Joondeph concluded. “Secure the border, scrutinize who comes across and stays, and put the well-being of Americans first.”

President Donald Trump was the independently out of the box minded man, who is beholding to no one, was tired of politics as usual, Immigration, unbalanced trade agreements and employment needed fixing. Just the feeling we have a Patriot at the helm and who generally believes the need to put America first is uplifting - at last. And yes, necessarily a wee bit roguish, to change things that was part of business as usual and drain the swamp in the District of Corruption. 

We needed a fresh new leader who understands that we are a united nation of English language, culture, religion, traditions and laws.

Bye the Bye, with every leader of our nation who was great, there was always things that many did not agree with, however the most important part of a leader is that they get the job done that he was elected to do.

E pluribus unum 

TimeLine: March 2005, far more people than usual won big money in a regional Powerball lottery in the U.S. The average for each draw is four winners, but on this special occasion, 110 players were awarded at least $100,000 and as much as $500,000. The reason for the anomaly seemed to have been an oracle that appeared in a number of widely distributed Chinese fortune cookies. It provided five of the six winning numbers. Inspired by this ancient & venerable  stroke of good fortune!

Kirk: This Thanksgiving, Let’s Say Thank You To President Trump

November 22nd, 2018

 

Dear President Trump,

 

Unlike liberals, who tend to always be bitter and angry about something, as a conservative I enjoy Thanksgiving because it is my nature to be thankful. America’s Constitution and free-market system have provided its people with a fulfilling bounty. This year, though, beyond God and family, the thing for which I am most grateful is your presidency and the work you have undertaken since your inauguration.

 

 

What you have accomplished to this point, without any significant level of Party support, has been significant and, in some cases, course-changing. Your rollback of regulation has enabled enterprise to operate more freely. The tax cut legislation has led to the repatriation of wealth and jobs to the United States and has directly caused the rebirth of manufacturing; an impossibility according to your predecessor.

 

The Supreme Court has now been saved for what could be a generation. It is not just who you appointed, but it is how you showed such strong leadership during the Kavanaugh confirmation process. What I and people like me have grown accustomed to over the years is a conservative Republican president or governor receding into the shadows during an attack like the one ravaged upon Judge Kavanaugh, ultimately emerging to withdraw the nomination to live and not fight another day.

 

The battle over Judge Kavanaugh was about more than just a court vacancy. It was truly about permitting legend to replace fact in the course of governing. It was about allowing people to simply declare a truth by fiat about someone and destroy them in the process.

 

 

You recognized it and you stopped it.

 

You have been unapologetic in your criticism of globalism, to the extent that of late you have chosen to embrace the term nationalist to assert American hegemony. That single act alone of rehabilitating the word “nationalist” and allowing the rest of us to use it without fear will change the nature of the discussion for decades. You understand the disproportionate accomplishments of Western Civilization in general, and United States’ particular role as accelerant of those accomplishments.

 

You continue to fight on multiple fronts against the invasion of the United States by those choosing to enter illegally. The assault against your effort comes from the courts, the press, the Democrats, the Republicans, and the activist mob on social media. Yet you fight.

 

From a foreign policy perspective, you have been willing to assert American primacy and strength at every occasion and you have done so where it might be comfortable with enemies (North Korea, China) and where it is less comfortable with allies (European Union, Canada). You seem to be guided by the idea that if it is right for America then it is right to pursue. I like that idea.

 

What you have done by taking on the mainstream media makes me want to come out of my seat the way I do when my beloved Chicago Bears score a touchdown. There is fake news. The media does lie. There is nothing about traditional America that the New York Times fancies. Everybody knows it. Every politician ignores it. You are the first conservative politician ever to publicly confront them. I am especially thankful for that.

 

Your presence in the American political landscape has been disruptive from the moment you began hinting at a presidential run. You were, and remain, an outsider; someone disturbing to the false and deceptive sense of calm derived from convention and pattern. To the professors of American politics, you were the student who wrote down the correct answer without showing your work. Accordingly, they have given you a failing grade, envious of your resonance and befuddled as to how you managed to get to where you now reside.

 

I know that your mission has not been to destroy the Republican Party but to stand it upright and lead it in a battle to restore First Principles and American exceptionalism. It saddens me to see that many in the conservative movement still don’t realize that is what you are trying to do.

 

It saddens me more to see that others who say they are conservatives do understand your agenda, and yet they fight to subvert it because they do not truly share it.

 

I started on my own political journey in order to try to take back our campuses from the big government collectivists. I knew it was going to be a battle. I would be lying if I said over the last six years there weren’t times I have looked around at the national leadership within the conservative movement and found myself discouraged. So many times, I have asked myself “why won’t they just fight?”

 

Now your presidency stands every day willing to engage in the fight. You inspire me. You give me energy. You have also given me something else; the opening line to a speech I will give about 50 years from now at a venue, and to a crowd, to be determined:

 

“I stand before you this Thanksgiving to honor the legacy of the president who courageously reset the course of America more than two generations ago…”

 

Mr. President, I extend a heartfelt and personal wish to you and your entire family for a blessed Thanksgiving, thankful for you and your presidency.
