Coronavirus Hysterics

The real pandemic regarding The Coronavirus is the panic being induced by Democrats. This is a fairly benign virus with a low mortality rate, but if you believe The Democrat’s rhetoric, you would think its The Black Plague all over again. Both Schumer and Pelosi made statements intending to cause a panic among the general public stating that President Trump wasn’t allocating enough tax payer money to combat the disease.

According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in the United States the top leading cause of death in 2019 in the USA are as follows:

  • Heart disease: 647,457
  • Cancer: 599,108
  • Accidents (unintentional injuries): 169,936
  • Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 160,201
  • Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 146,383
  • Alzheimer’s disease: 121,404
  • Diabetes: 83,564
  • Influenza and pneumonia: 55,672
  • Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis: 50,633
  • Intentional self-harm (suicide): 47,173
  • Gun Deaths 15,292

 To date, one person has died from the coronavirus in the United States. So we really need to keep things in prospective.

 Worldwide there are 85,000 cases, but the U.S. has only 60 cases. These 60 cases, I believe, are a result of those who have either been brought here for treatment, or travelled here before the travel restriction from China.

 Does anyone besides myself, notice that the countries with the worst outbreaks are the ones with socialized medicine?

Pelosi and Schumer’s Political Posturing

Today, May 22, 2019, there was a meeting scheduled with Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi to supposedly discuss an infrastructure plan with President Trump. Before entering The Rose Garden, however, Pelosi thought it would be a good idea to stop and do some Trump bashing to reporters.

Like any red blooded American, this did not go over too well with The President. President Trump told the two of them that there would be no deals with Democrats until the bogus investigations came to an end. Schumer and Pelosi immediately retaliated and told the bias media that Trump had a temper tantrum. Trump did exactly what he should have done! The time has long passed for President Trump to stop cooperating with these idiots. He has gone far and beyond what he had any obligation to do as far as cooperation goes, and that is where the problem lays.

This is a textbook example of giving an inch, and the opposition taking a mile. It was one thing to cooperate fully with the Muller probe, but that is where the line should have been drawn. Attorney General William Barr should have never been instructed to turn over the report’s findings to the salivating, bloodthirsty, angry, Democrat oversight committee. He was under no legal obligation to do so.

It is now time for President Trump to end the “Mr. nice guy” approach and utilize his executive privilege, or whatever else in his legal authority to end the onslaught from these angry Democrats. If these Democrats are going to continue to throw these baseless accusations at The President, then let them prove them. Last time I checked, this is still a free country, and the burden of proof lies with the accuser, not the accused!

Flawed USA Immigration Policies

I have my own personal “tale of woe” to tell about how our nation’s flawed immigration policies have negatively impacted my life. I want people to really understand the mentality of most of these migrants from a personal interaction perspective. I spent the better part of my life working in construction, side by side with migrants from all different countries; I can tell you first hand some facts that may elude most folks.

 Most of the immigrants that I encountered were here illegally. People need to understand that for the most part, these immigrants come from extreme poverty. Yes! Extreme poverty! The American ghetto looks like paradise compared to this kind of poverty. In most of these Central American countries, for a few pesos one can buy a live chicken and some dried beans or rice, enough for the one or two main meals during the week. These people come from countries where the law is taken into one’s own hands for the most part. The police are mostly pawns for the drug and other illicit trades. Sexual assaults, muggings, robbery, murders, drug overdoses, and homelessness, are simply the normal way of life and a direct result of the dysfunction of how these Dictatorship governed countries operate.

Now back to my original point – when I worked on job sites and had conversations with those who knew enough English, they came here and worked, with the sole intention to bring the rest of their family here. As much of their paycheck as possible was sent back home to be saved up to be able to pay the coyotes to bring their family here. As more and more of these migrants entered the construction field, the price paid out for jobs dropped. As a drywall subcontractor, paid by the square foot, and making decent money, in just a few years, it became impossible for me to afford to have a new vehicle and a mortgage payment. The main companies that I subcontracted work from figured out that it was way more profitable to bring in illegal workers, house them, train them with the skills necessary, in house and pay them less than half of what it cost the company to sub out the jobs. These immigrants came from such poor conditions that to be crammed eight or so people into a small apartment and getting a paycheck of any kind was like a gift from God to them. I have to laugh out loud, when these politicians make general comparison of economic strife of these immigrants to our way of life here in America, and use these skewed guidelines to form the concepts of immigration laws.

This is a story that millions of American workers could tell, if anyone ever had the wherewithal to research it. Every single subcontractor that I was associated with experienced this, and this was back in the early nineties. I can only imagine what has become of the industry now. All this type of labor is probably being done now by first generation immigrants. I guess that’s what President Obama meant when he and other Democrats said “they are doing jobs no Americans want to do”.  What they mean is the jobs that no Americans can afford to do anymore. Fortunately, for myself I was able, with some continued education, a sharp wit, a few lucky breaks, and hard work to change careers. May of my colleagues lost all they had worked for years to accomplish. That is the true immigration crisis in America, not the bleeding heart propaganda about how hard it has been for these people that struggle to reach our border.

Say Good-Bye to America

The last stop for freedom

The Democratic majority of Congress wouldn’t normally be of much concern in days of old. Now, however, it appears to be more like a case of the inmates taking charge of the asylum. The idea that Jerry Nadler and Maxine Waters would head up two Congressional committees is downright frightening at the least. I wouldn’t let these senile old radicals babysit my grandchildren, or pet sit, never mind have Congressional authority over taxpayer expenditures and rule of national laws to be written that direct how and where those expenditures go. These two lunatics in particular, have already been outspoken about their willingness to subvert the Constitution of the United States to attain personal and ideological gratification, despite any opposition, even in their own constituency.

This brings me to my second point. The seeds of discontent have already been sown to divide  Americans at the very core of our deepest values and beliefs. The Obama Presidency, through complicit social media and public education, has convinced America that rejecting illegal immigration is “un-American”. That Americans can rely on government to provide healthcare, housing, and other services so that no one should do without. Even for those who don’t pay any taxes, are not citizens, or have any allegiance to this country for that matter. To criticism this ideology is now deemed “un- American”.

At the inception of social welfare programs back in the early 1960’s, the concept of support programs for the less fortunate at the time, seemed like the compassionate thing to do. Unfortunately, it was not considered, that to give someone something for nothing, the person would lose the ambition to do anything for oneself. This has led to generational dependency and rampant unchecked fraud. Regardless, the expense required to support these programs is, and has been putting a huge burden on those that are taxed to support them.

In fact, this government of ours has been borrowing, investing, and trying to print its way out of this mess since the inception of the concept and failing miserably. The concept of “budget accounting” is partially to blame. Budget accounting is a fictional process, by which those who do the accounting are not held to account for the expenses. The shortfalls are simply passed on as increases to the next annual expenditure estimate. The federal government has no authority to tax its citizens for  expenses such as Housing and Urban Development, The Department of Education, Environmental Conservation, and a whole host of other “ departments”. The United States Government has one job; to protect its citizens from threats both foreign and domestic, period!

Americans are being fed propaganda from both sides of the political spectrum. Instead of the people governing ourselves, we are now, the governed from the bureaucracy of a two tiered justice, and political system! One side claims fiscal responsibility, while the other claims that more taxation will cover the additional expense of the entitlements. Unfortunately, the metric of what any given individual’s right to claim any given  entitlement is so diminished, at this point, all one has to do is become overweight to receive government assistance or have a “pre-existing condition”.

This brings me to my third point. It’s not about the social welfare, or the responsible execution of these programs, or anything else; it’s about the coffers. It’s about greed, and the possibility of accessing  some portion of the tremendous amount of money that is being generated through the taxation process, being funneled into any given representative’s pocket. The Judicial, Legislative, and Executive branches of this government have become pawns of the extremely wealthy, and politically powerful, able to take advantage of those in even the most sensitive positions through human’s most vulnerable flaw;  the raw fundamental survival instinct of greed!

My fourth, and final point is that with all the whispers of things like “single payer” health care, and “open borders”, politicized Department of Justice,” social  and other types of media censorship”, media bias, voting influences, these are all things that essentially destroy the concept of a government ‘by the people for the people”; In other words, say goodbye to the Bill of Rights, and our Constitution! These things we hold so dear are not designed to survive the guilt laden society burdened with the responsibility to be politically correct about all aspects of life.

When those who are in need outnumber those who can support them, government of and by the people is unsustainable. Ergo the Socialist concept is given birth through a Dictatorship government survivable only by forceful  taxation and oppression of the people it governs. Governed by leaders like Pelosi, Nadler, Waters, Schumer,  Clinton, Obama, Brennan, Clapper, Comey, Lynch, Holder, Ocasio-Cortez, Sanders, Soros, and hundreds of others like them who, through wealth and propaganda, have enabled them to tear at the fabric of this, the last bastion of freedom and democracy in the world… America.

Department of Justice Corruption

It has now become clear that there were improprieties at the highest level of the previous administration’s Department of Justice. It has also become clear that the Democrats are trying desperately to hide these improprieties.  The evidence being dragged out of the deep state actors still employed at The Department of Justice are coming to light on a daily basis. There are now real concerns about the integrity of the Mueller probe. While Chuck Schumer and Adam Schiff are questioning the right of the President to have Congress more closely examine the facts here, only proves further, how far off the rails the Democratic Party has gone.

The fact is that it is the constitutional duty of Congress to examine, and have oversight of any questionable activity that has occurred in the judicial branch of government. Adam Schiff and Chuck Schumer have both made bold claims that Trump’s demanding to have classified documents turned over to Congress, is undermining the rule of law.

The truth of the matter is that the Democrats are the ones who have consistently undermined the rule of law throughout the entire Obama administration. Remember President Obama’s famous quote?  “I have a pen and a phone, and I intend to use them.”  The fact is that the runaway corruption, and lawlessness over the past eight years has become standard operating procedure for the Democrats. The true rule of law is now slapping them in the face, and they are not happy campers. They went “all in” on the gamble that they could circumvent the democratic process at the polls by using the Department of Justice in this corrupt way and maintain power by getting Hillary Clinton elected.

Now to quote Obama’s preacher, “…the chickens have come home to roost.”  Had Clinton won, all this stuff would have been swept under a rug.

This brings me to the final point that only proves that the entire Mueller investigation has been a ruse, a distraction, a way to give the corrupt Department of Justice time to try to cover their tracks. Thankfully, there are still those who work in the department that have the dignity and integrity to both preserve documents, and have the courage to stand against the criminal actors. I have stated it before, but now it really is time to fire Mueller, and have all the documents he has collected over the past eighteen months revealed. Rosenstein should be the next to go, and Clapper, Yates, and Brennan need to be prosecuted, like General Flynn, for lying under oath.

The American people deserve to see equal justice for all these bad actors. It is the only sure way for The Department of Justice to begin to earn back the trust of The American people.

Veto Spending Bill, President Trump

PLEASE VETO THIS SPENDING BILL, PRESIDENT TRUMP!!!!

One has to know that if Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi love the spending bill it has to go against every principle that you stand for. You campaigned on the promise to drain the “swamp”.

These R.I.N.O.’s and Democrats that passed this over 2,000 page bill, are “the swamp”. Not only must this bill be vetoed, but Congress must be forced to stay in session until it’s READ and hammered out!
