At the time of this writing the Democrats and Republican were meeting to negotiate effective border security. At the same time Speaker Nancy Pelosi was reiterating her stance on the fact that there would be no money for a Wall. This comes as a little bit of a surprise since both she and Senator Schumer said they would be open to negotiations once the Government shutdown has ended. The whole thing shows how the Dems operate. It is eerily similar to their stance at the Kavanaugh hearings when they wished to postpone a vote until another FBI investigation was conducted. In that case they got their wish once the FBI probe was completed they claimed that it was insufficient. In essence this was another of their stall tactics just as in the case of border security.
The liberals are aghast at the thought that President Trump may declare a national emergency and seek funds to build the Wall.
Their cries against Trump for possibly using Executive Action is in sharp contrast to the 6 years that Obama ruled by Executive fiat. ***
Other startling news last week was the fact that several states were poised to emulate New York Governor Cuomo’s signing of a bill to permit drastic changes in the abortion law. One of the most striking proposals being considered is that even after birth the life or death of an infant can be decided by the mother in consultation with her doctor. According to Webster this would be infanticide because his definition of the act is “the killing of a newly born child”. This is the same Cuomo whose most famous recent quote is “America was never that great” in response to Trumps famous MEGA slogan. ***
New looney bird leader. California Democrat Senator Kamala Harris is the new leader of the pack of disingenuous Democrat candidates for President. The most famous plank in her platform is that she would illuminate the health insurance industry as we know it. In her call for Medicare for all she must have been channeling her inner Bernie Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez. None of these three have the slightest smidgen of economics since such a program would not only bankrupt Medicare but the U.S. itself. Their call to raise taxes on the wealthy as a possible solution fly’s in of the face of the fact that even if you raised taxes 100% on the rich you would be only able to run the entire Government for a short period of time.
In addition the last time I checked Medicare only pays for 80% of health care. I wonder where the liberals think the other 20% will eventually come from.
While Harris and her fellow loonies are spouting what they call Socialism, they are actually bordering on the Communist manifesto of “from each according to his means to those according to their needs”.
Perhaps Harris, Sanders, O-C and Beto should sign up for a night class in economics 101 so that they can learn that you cannot expend more money than you can take in. Also a trip to Cuba, Venezuela or France might be in order for this foursome to see up close the many benefits of socialism at work in the real world. ***
Another black eye for the FBI. The most egregious act of the Mueller investigation to date occurred last week when more than 2 dozen agents in riot gear were sent to the home of Trump associate Roger Stone. It took this massive force to arrest a 65 year old individual whose weapons of defense were a couple of tiny dogs and his terrified wife. The pre-dawn raid reminded one of the attack against Osama bin Laden. Just by chance a news crew from CNN happened to be stationed outside Stones home and were able to capture the entire event for the television viewers. When questioned about their coordination with the FBI, CNN responded that it was simply a matter of a newsman’s hunch. Apparently either someone on Mueller’s team or the FBI itself leaked the information about the raid. In response President Trump is now seeking details of how the FBI was ordered to conduct the action. Possibly Mueller’s former connections with the agency were utilized in order to create this show of overwhelming force.
