Sen. Jeff Sessions On Brexit: ‘Now It’s America’s Turn’
breitbart ^ | 24 Jun 2016 | Jeff Sessions

Posted on 06/24/2016 3:31:38 PM PDT by Pollard

The people spoke from their hearts and with conviction. They considered deep and critical issues never discussed by the international elites. Their strong vote arose not out of fear and pique but out of love for country and pride of place. Their experience with a distant government in Brussels was given a long and fair chance to succeed. In the end, however, they concluded that the costs outweighed the benefits. Often, Britain makes changes that precede U. S. action. The Thatcher movement preceded the Reagan revolution. Both were victories for the people over outdated and corrupt forces. Both were achieved against powerful and determined establishment forces. Both resulted in historic and positive periods in their nation’s history.

Now it’s our time. The period of the nation state has not ended. No far off global government or union can command the loyalty of a people like their own country. Vague unions have no ability to call on the people to sacrifice for the common good. They seem incapable of making decisions and when they do, they have difficulty executing the decision.

Far better to celebrate the wonder and proven worth of good nation states and to work hard to use that foundation to build harmonious political and trading relations among the nations. This is the best basis for peace and prosperity.

(UKIP) leader Nigel Farage told Breitbart that Obama’s visit, where he threatened to send Britain to the “back of the queue” if the public voted to leave (EU), backfired and swayed Britons to vote for Brexit.

Obama caused the Brexit vote to Bounce up to 5% at the time the remain/leave polls tallied about even.

For sure he’ll say/do something equally as stupid in the days leading to November (snix).

DONALD J. TRUMP STATEMENT REGARDING BRITISH REFERENDUM ON E.U. MEMBERSHIP

Donald J. trump ^ | 6/24/2016 | Donald J. Trump
Posted on 6/24/2016, 3:03:44 AM by usafa92

The people of the United Kingdom have exercised the sacred right of all free peoples. They have declared their independence from the European Union and have voted to reassert control over their own politics, borders and economy. A Trump Administration pledges to strengthen our ties with a free and independent Britain, deepening our bonds in commerce, culture and mutual defense. The whole world is more peaceful and stable when our two countries – and our two peoples – are united together, as they will be under a Trump Administration.

Come November, the American people will have the chance to re-declare their independence. Americans will have a chance to vote for trade, immigration and foreign policies that put our citizens first. They will have the chance to reject today’s rule by the global elite, and to embrace real change that delivers a government of, by and for the people. I hope America is watching, it will soon be time to believe in America again.

I think Newt will discuss the UN and Agenda 21 with Trump when the time is right, and Trump will realize the UN s a criminal enterprise and effectively shut it down by our withdrawal.

Okay people, this is what we MUST do. 1: Remove all politicians with more that twelve (12) years in office from said office. 2. Once removed from office NO money to them whatsoever. 3. no lobbing for anyone for a minimum of twelve (12) years after leaving office. 4: The total of twelve years in office is the total amount of years for any office. I.E. no jumping from City, to County, To State, and then to Federal Government. Twelve (12) years TOTAL. PERIOD! END OF SUBJECT!!!!!

As I recall,that subject was brought up many years ago when Pat Buchanan was running for president. He had some very definite things to say about it.

Once again Sessions shows himself to be a true statesman. He is a great man and I hope Trump continues to seek his council.

But what about the bureaucrats in power who are not elected? That’s another key place we need to lower the axe.
