Praying that Donald Trump can save America in 2024!

TRUMP’S FIRST BIG MISTAKE!

I have supported our President since he announced his intention to seek the office. The reason for my decision was that he was only the second American from a major political group to seek the office who was not a career politician. The other was Dwight Eisenhower who was also the first person I was able to vote for to be President a long time ago. I had spent over four years in the Navy, three and a half on active duty. I was Married with one daughter and one on the way when I cast my first vote for anything.

Now we have Americans voting at 18 that can’t add 2 + 2, ignored by society or preparing to enter a college or University. After four years of being taught to ignore the Constitution, how to spit on or burn our flag, hate our military and demonstrate before they graduate. This has been happening long enough now to divide the people and spew hate in every direction. The hate in America appears to have reached a crescendo that will end with another civil war if Trump fails.

Watching every move Trump had promised to do, several have ended up squashed by Congress, the political driven Supreme court or the Demoncratic Secret Society. These groups have funded protest for everything possible and are corrupting every Federal Agency including the FBI, the State Department and likely every arm of Government. The media is using every event to stir up Americans with fake news, hysterical lies, innuendos to motivate the young people to riot, damage property and hate our country.

Trump has been systematically doing things he promised in the months of bloodthirsty and savage campaigning. He has started draining the swamp as promised while having to fight both the Republican and Democratic losers who have nearly led and managed America to bankruptcy and third world stature.

Much to my surprise he has now attacked one of the most innovative and expertly managed companies since Sam Walton started Sam’s Clubs and Walmart. He has, for some strange reason, mounted an attack on Amazom.com for taking advantage of a contract with the Postal Service. If he has a problem with Jeff Bezos he should attack what Amazon has done wrong. I doubt the Amazon folks took advantage of an agency that has never made a profit in history. President Trump should have avoided the Postal Service, Tennessee Valley Authority and Amtrac when starting a fight with anyone about failure. He should be trying to privatize these perennial failures and eliminate the losses written off every year. If he is jealous of Bezos wait until he is no longer President. He should be trying to get Amazon to modernize every government agency that exists and save us Trillions by “Doing the Right Things Right the First Time”. This was the slogan for my companies

If the truth were known I imagine the contract Amazon has with the Postal Service was sought after by the USPS? Before he attacked by backstabbing Amazon he should have asked some questions.How many people did the USPS employ just to do the increased Amazon workload.

If it was none, what were the people doing before the added work?

If it was 2,000 new people, what will they do if the Amazon contract is ended? My guess is nothing, what is your guess?

Of all the recent new companies Amazon operations and leadership should be used to teach our Government how to be successful. I doubt Amazon has a pension program that allows people to retire after 20 years service. I spent 27 years, 25 in management, for a major corporation. I did leave them to improve my family’s life but had my 27 years been in management for a Government Agency I could have retired at 47 instead of 63 and be enjoying my 40th year of a fat Government pension. Instead I retired at 65 with the 27 years of service. I have drawn $221.47 each month for 22 years now with zero, none, nada other benefits.  

If “Joe American” working in any position similar to a Government worker had any idea the difference he will get in pension benefits there would be Hell to pay explaining why. I hope President Trump will keep his focus to level the playing field and adjust the Government employee benefits to match private industry. Leave Amazon alone unless they break the law. Get the FBI honest and make every Government agency out there justify their existence. Start with the USPS as I feel certain any successful business in America could make a profit managing them in less than two years. I know I could if I had the funding.

WASHINGTON WITCHCRAFT?

It amazes me how our current President, his entire horde of Czars, his communist advisers, the mainstream media and the entire Democratic Party believe that the majority of Americans are stupid. I will agree that those who voted for them are stupid but I can’t believe they are the majority of American voters. They have lied, covered up snafus, hidden written documents, misused their lawful power and are regulating us into bankruptcy with little or no resistance.

Well the “Wicked Witch of the West”, Hillary Clinton, has been caught with her panties in a knot for actually ignoring a federal law and committing a federal crime. Now we face several months of lies, smoke screens as she prepares to succeed our “Liar-in-Chief” as President.

Prepare yourself for a performance that will be so filled with drama it would win an Academy Award. If she is elected the Hollywood loons will probable give her that award after serving her eight years as President? All she has to do is keep the women’s vote and the abortion zealots in the Republican Party will make sure to help her.

I have spent the day listening to and reading articles related to Hillary’s use of a private E mail service to conduct even top secret correspondence while she was Secretary of State. That alone is a revelation of how our government has become a secret society within itself.

The most ridiculous event in the news today was that the White House counsel’s office was not aware at the time Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State that she relied solely on personal email to correspond. They admitted it was the congressional investigation into the Benghazi attack that alerted them of the crime. If that is true, why did the White House and Eric Holder’s Justice Department ignore the crime that was exposed over a year ago? Even the stupid and women know the answer, “Politics as Usual.”

Another bothersome action I read was that the State Department turned over some of her messages in connection with the Benghazi probe after she left office. They knew a year ago she had ignored federal law when the White House counsel’s office asked the State department to ensure that her email records were properly archived, according to the article I read.

Clinton announced in a late-night tweet yesterday that she wants her emails released. She asked the State Department to vet the 55,000-plus pages she handed over, leaving the diplomatic agency with the intensely politicized task of determining which can be made public. Why can’t they be released to Congress committees who have security clearance? The answer, “Politics as Usual.”

John Kerry told reporters today during a trip to Saudi Arabia that the State Department will move immediately to review the emails but cautioned it will take time. “We will undertake this task as rapidly as possible in order to make sure that we are dealing with the sheer volume in a responsible way,” Kerry said. The reason for any delay is “Politics as Usual.”

Even though they suspected something was being hidden, the committee, chaired by Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., announced Wednesday that it has issued a subpoena to Clinton directly for all of her communications relating to Libya, including emails from her personal server, texts, attachments and pictures. If there is nothing confidential in her E mails why do they have to be screened by Kerry and why can’t Hillary give them direct access?

I just read in the Federalist that Hillary Clinton and her allies may be claiming that her private e-mail system is no big deal. “Hillary’s State Department actually forced the 2012 resignation of the U.S. ambassador to Kenya in part for setting up an unsanctioned private e-mail system. According to a 2012 report from the State Department’s inspector general, former U.S. ambassador to Kenya Scott Gration set up a private e-mail system for his office in 2011”. “Politics as Usual?”

Watching what happens will be interesting. Look for excuses that will put tears in the eyes of every American female voter both dead and alive. They have enough time to make it look like discrimination against women. We have women who are more than qualified than our last several Presidents and are capable of leading America back on a Constitutional path. It is time to give a woman a chance to prove me right but not Hillary Clinton. At least find a woman who is truthful, honest, ethical, and loves America as much as I do from either political party.

The Clintons have so many skeletons buried from the Ozark’s to the Adirondack Mountains that it will be a field day to watch NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN and PBS manipulate the facts to get Hillary elected in 2016.

Honesty, truth, ethics and true love for America are no longer a requirement for the media or politicians. 

“WASHINGTON WITCHCRAFT IS POLITICS AS USUAL.”

WILL AMERICANS EVER WAKE UP?

THE GOVERNMENT HAS SLOWLY TAKEN OVER STATES RIGHTS. NOW ITS CITIES AND TOWNS.

Just in my 84 years the centralized power of our government has increased to control about every aspect of Americans rights provided by our Constitution. We have an Energy Department that can override state laws. We have an Education Department that uses money to force states to follow federal guidelines to decide what our children can learn.

We can’t buy a gun anymore without federal registration. Soon the same will apply to ammunition. We are told what kind of vehicles must be designed to meet on energy standards  that are based on environmental standards with no scientific reason and just increase costs to the consumer. By stopping pipelines and scaring people with irresponsible dangers of new technology the government will stop the success of using our own oil now instead of buying it from our enemies. Oil will be outdated someday so why waste our advantages today?

Homeland Security is now responsible for our borders, enforcing our immigration laws and doing neither as our President and Attorney General don’t like the laws. The Hispanics will work so Americans on welfare and bogus disability can continue to create more civil disobedience and divide the Americans to hate each other more.

There seems to be no end to the thousands on actions by over zealous government employees like the IRS, EPA and our Department of State that have caused America to be a buyer of products rather that an exporter.

This week we have watched the government caused riots, plunder, damage and pain because Obama, Eric Holder and Al  Sharpton did not agree with a legally empale a Grand Jury that was not even necessary to determine that local law enforcement had done their job within the local and State laws. The damage was allowed as the National Guard was withheld from doing their duty for purely political reasons.

Now we have watched Obama begin a plan and send Eric Holder on his last mission as Attorney General to set in motion controls to take over local law enforcement and tell Mayors, Sheriffs and Police Chiefs how they must manage your local law enforcement operations.

If the government would start a program to show farmers and ranchers how to use and dispose of bull dodo, they unquestionably have the education and experience to be involved The IRS failure when they took over a bar and legal brothel in Nevada and make a profit, should have caused Americans to stop this mismanagement a long time ago. The TVA, Amtrak and the Postal Service are great  examples of government managed for profit services.

You would think that destroying the greatest healthcare program in the world would have been enough for the Democrats but they will never give up until they can tell you what to eat, what to wear, what you can learn and take all of your money and even tell you when you can go to the bathroom. Laugh at me but remember my words if you don’t wake up. C Brewer

 

POLITICAL QUALIFICATIONS!

My good friend Chris Landon sent me this announcement that needs to be shared with all American voters now.

In a news conference Deanna Favre announced she will be the starting QB for the Green Bay Packers next season.

Deanna asserts that she is qualified to be the starting QB because she had spent 16 years married to Brett while he played QB for the Packers. Even though she has actually never played football at any level from grade school up and never run the offense of any team or played the game.

During this period of time, she became familiar with the definition of a corner blitz, the nickel package, and man-to-man coverage, so she is now completely comfortable with all the other terminology involving the Packers offense. A survey of Packers fans shows that 50% of those polled supported the move.

Does this sound idiotic and unbelievable or familiar to you? Hillary Clinton makes the same claims as to why she is qualified to be the President and over 50% of Democrats polled agreed.

She has never run a city, county, or state during her “career” of being Bill Clinton’s wife. Hillary Clinton says she has the experience because she lived for 8 years in the White House with the President of the United States. My immediate thought was “So has the pastry chef.”

When it comes to running the State Department, her biggest achievement was getting a US Ambassador and 3 other Americans killed, by pretending terrorism had been defeated.

The irony is Hillary will likely be our next President but poor Deanna will never make the Packers team. Qualifications are a moot point with Democrats. If you question this explain how we got Obama and then re-elected him with no qualifications.

Go vote and remove Harry Reid from power.

LEADERSHIP – MISSING IN AMERICA!

I was raised and educated to accept and believe that the leaders of the United States of America met every one of the definitions I have listed below. Read these definitions as carefully as I have and try to answers some specific questions that follow.

INTEGRITY

The adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty.

HONESTY

The quality or fact of being honest, upright, fair, truthful, sincere, or frank with freedom from deceit or fraud.

MORALS

Ethical principles it takes to do what is right when it may cost more than you are willing to pay. Who you are and what you do when no one is looking.

ETHICS

Fundamental principles of right conduct rather than legalities.

VALUES

Important beliefs. Not all are ethical, some are neutral or non-ethical.

CHARACTER

The action taken to carry out the values, ethics and morals that you believe in. Consistency between what you say you will do and what you actually do. Putting the ethics into action, defines, builds, or breaks your reputation.

Generals and Admirals were always the perfect example of leaders. Respect was earned with performance. Recent actions by some of these military leaders has been embarrassing. Do you feel they have been honest, moral, ethical and earned respect for their character?

Our President stands before us daily and lies, distorts with his own words, positions he both approves and disapproves depending on when he was recorded. Do you believe his actions are honest and ethical? I do not.

We have Congress Persons who answer the same questions with opposing views depending on political gain and re-election on the same day. Do you feel that we have even one Congress Person who is honest or has any moral character? I do not. 

Recent actions by government agencies like the State Department, Internal Revenue Service, Justice Department and the Intelligence groups is unlawful and shameful. These people would not know what the truth is and flaunt their power with deceit and lies. Do you respect them? I don’t’.

Our Supreme Court has become a court of political beliefs rather than resolving the destruction of our Constitution and Bill of Rights by minority zealots who are destroying our freedoms at warp speed. Do you feel they follow the law or their political beliefs?

I truly believe something has happened to our leaders and they have developed a new set of rules that I don’t like them. Do you?

“Character is not reflected by what we say, or even by what we intend, it is a reflection of what we do.” – Anonymous

Do me a favor and sit down and make a list of current living American leaders that you feel meet all of these requirements 100% of the time. I have tried hard to find anyone in government that qualify’s.

I do expect to get comments that no one in America can meet all of these requirements and I agree that none do before you waste your and my time trying. The sad part is that they all swore on the bible that they are moral, honest, ethical and have the values and character that meet these 100% of these requirements. We know they are lying but we just keep electing them anyway for some goofy reason. Americas values disappeared when the lawyers took over the leadership a long time ago and we just ignore the moral decay and normal. WHY?

HOSTESS BANKRUPCY NEWS

I am sure that most Americans are aware that all of the Hostess Bakery plants shut down due to union strikes.  

 

I feel certain that you have not heard how some of the 18,000 workers were provided with government jobs.

 

The State Department hired all the “Twinkies”.

 

The Secret Service hired all the “HoHo’s”.

 

All of the “Cupcakes” are sleeping with Generals.

 

AND

 

The voters sent 535 “Ding Dongs” to Congress.

CONGRESSIONAL CON GAMES

 

They can’t wait until the public calms down to use other ways to deceive the folks about wasteful spending. Regardless of how many devious ways to waste money to get re-elected are exposed, they will find others. One new republican Senator discovered a method with little exposure as a way to hide extortion type pressure from being associated with him even before the election. Chicago style politics seems to have no party affiliation with even republicans being sent to prison. 

Senator Mark Kirk R-Illinois won the Senate seat that Obama vacated to run for President. During his campaign he stated that he would oppose Speaker of the House, Nancy Polisi’s trillion-dollar stimulus plan. He along with many other republicans squealed loudly about pork-barrel spending and the use of designating money for special projects via “earmarks”.

Mr. Kirk understood political pressure, for example, he sent a letter to the Department of Education on September 10, 2009, asking the release of money “needed to support students and educational programs” in a local school district. The New York Times (NYT) obtained a copy of the letter from the Citizens Against Government Waste group that had obtained the copy under the Freedom of Information Act. The Woodland School District 50 later received $1,100,000.00 in stimulus funds.

The NYT reported that his spokeswoman, Susan Kuczka, reported, “Senator-elect Kirk became the first member of the Appropriations Committee to stop requesting earmarks and voted against the stimulus bill. He has and will continue to be an advocate for his Illinois constituents before administration agencies but will not request Congressional earmarks to be included in House or Senate legislation.”

Watch the weasel words as he made no mention that he would not use the alternatives of lettermarking or phonemarking which are alternatives to hide themselves from the spending. Let me show you how. Lettermarking which takes place outside the Congressional appropriations process is another way to let the Congressperson provide money back home and the money comes from the budgets approved for that government agency. I am sure that a Congressperson would not include money for that agency in the preparation of their annual budget. If you believe that, I have some swamp land you may want to buy!

Phonemarking is where the lawmaker calls an agency requesting money for a home district or State for specific projects. They should be called soft-earmarks which is merely suggesting that money be used for home projects or Hard-earmarks where they demand that funds be available for their district/State.

These are not new scams as they have been used for years. If we did this it would be called bribery or fraud. Both Presidents Bush and Obama issued Executive Orders to all government agencies to not finance pet projects requested from a Congressperson. Anyone out there really believe they actually stopped the practice? Would you say no to the people who approve your budget? No one would be that stupid.

Representative Jeff Flake R-Arizona sees merit in banning all of these practices. He has raised the issue with the new Speaker of the House, John Boehner who has not committed to banning all types of  soft/hard earmarks.

Soft earmarks accounted for billions of dollars in 2006, the last year they were examined, according to the Congressional Research Service. It sort of makes you wonder why but remember they will find another way regardless. In 2006 most were in spending bills for the State Department, US Agency for International Development and other foreign aid programs. Maybe these billions would have prevented the unemployment situation we have today!

Let me share just one example of how these pet projects are forced on the government agency. The 2010 military bill contained $2,500,000,000.00 for more C-17 transport aircraft; $825,000,000.00 for all-terrain vehicles; $732,000,000.00 for other airplanes and $500,000,000.00 for a second engine for the F-35 aircraft. The Pentagon did not request these funds and did not desire to spend the money. I wonder why it was there, do you?

Taxpayers for Common Sense found 146 such undisclosed earmarks totaling nearly $6,000,000,000.00 in 2010 spending bills.

You will find some more interesting things in my AMERICAN ROYALTY-PART 5 next Tuesday 1-4-11.

Let me leave you with a question. Do you really think that 2011 will see major change to the waste we are watching? I do not. Bring on a third-party to change Washington. The last time this happened was when Lincoln was elected and sadly it produced the Civil War, read your history, I did.
