“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. Galatians 5

The latest fraud ABDNCBS is trying to fool the people with is this economy has nothing to do with President Trump and is simply the fruits of Obamanomics. If that were true why these same mediots were claiming the sluggish economy was Bush’s fault for the last eight years? Why did none of this boom happen during his years if his economy was so wonderful and only began the night Trump was elected?

The fact is the economy is a function of the cost of energy and Trump has lowered those costs with the supporting the Keystone and Dakota pipelines as well as the deregulating of the coal industry. This will bring lower and lower gas and electrical costs lowering expenses for individuals and businesses. These lower costs are passed on to the rest of the economy as every item you buy or use is brought under control or lowered.

Eliminating America’s participation in the fake science of Global Warming Paris Accords has taken the shackles off the energy industry and inefficient green energy.

Marxists always make up lies to promote their agenda since the truth always goes against their agenda. Just like the economy is now recovering in spite of everything the numerous academics predicted it actually loves freedom and low energy costs. We now have both starting to sprout and already bearing fruit.

In addition to the positive moves Trump has made with the energy industry there has been a large number of strangling regulations eliminated such as opening more oil reserves as well as encouraging drilling and fracking. He is simply running the gummit like a business for the first time in our lifetimes and the business is beginning to show profits, which is just the opposite of the Cash for Clunkers economy we just suffered through.

When you lower energy prices you lower the cost of every product and service you use. Energy is the basic building block of every product produced. Whether it is a home or a hamburger it is all costed out as how much energy is put into the product. The more costly those energy units and the more units a product requires the more costly the product in a perfect economy.

There are other forces such as supply and demand, but when costing an item such as the hamburger the basic costs are purchasing the meat and buns as well as the transportation and energy required to refrigerate and cook those burgers. All of those items require energy units and generate the cost of the hamburger. If you can lower those energy costs you lower the cost of the burgers and increasing profits.

This is what President Trump is doing and why the markets are reacting so positively to his actions. Not only are they seeing real results immediately the market predicts future activity far better than fake polls and it is predicting a very strong economy in the future. It has discounted the collapse of Obamacare as a necessary evil and is now anticipating some relief on taxes.
Unfortunately Trump is the only one in Moscow on the Potomac who understands capitalism so Congress will minimize the tax cuts and limit the benefit this could allow. If they would do real tax cuts throughout the economy there would be an absolute economic explosion.

The markets do not believe there will be much of a tax cut since they have already discounted the courage of the Republicans as their managers will tell them to fight Trump to get elected. This is just the opposite of what is right, but nobody in DC believes in doing what is right only what they are told to do by the media and establishment.

Unlike what fake news is saying the entire economy is reacting to President Donald J Trump and nothing else. As hard as the Democrat establishment is trying to stop him and the recovery as it exposes their Marxist failures, he is beating all of them singlehandedly. The Congress has nothing to do with it, the establishment has nothing to do with it and neither does the District of Corruption, only Trump. He is doing what no other President could or would do.

This recovery and President Trump are the biggest threat to the establishment on both sides of the aisle. In reality they are both filled with Marxists who believe in centralized gummit and benefit from that centralization in power, graft and corruption. This is why they fight him and the people who elected him, because they are the real threat to their world and all the benefits it provides. This is why they have to minimize his role in this record recovery and why they will continue to give everyone else the credit including their messiah who nearly destroyed America for the past eight years. Donald J Trump is rebuilding the Shining City on the Hill and Ronnie would be proud.

Pray America woke

Mostly unwatchable.

The deck is stacked against the good guys today.

[rodguy911]

I always like to hear from Kellyanne... lots going on this week,big week.

[Fhios]

Going to be interesting to hear Chris Christie on the CNN sunday show. Will he stab Trump in the back or will he just flagellate between support and non-support.

[bray]

NeverTrump Sunday.

[rodguy911]

Great piece and it is all about energy and how the US will one day become the Number one producer if we are not already there.

Trump's recent rally in West Va. is a great example as well. The obama/jarrett adm. waged a huge war on coal and almost put them out of business simply by regulating every thing they possible could.The stupidest regs ever devised were use to make sure big coal died.

Thankfully, it didn't work. The useless war on coal became another obamacare and failed miserably as do most liberal ideas of governing.

Today our president has brought coal back from the brink and soon we will be exporting clean coal to the world if not using more of it here.

Now that nuclear has been around for some time we see it's not without it's problems. We have them down here in the fab fla. Keys as it could be a problem with water supplies and fisheries as well. Coal has no such problems. No spent rods to store or any of that. Advances made to clean it up have brought coal back as a very viable source of fuel. But don't tell that to the left. They hate anything that is not solar or wind even if those wonderful wind turbines kill every bird alive.

[TTFlyer]

NeverTrump Sunday. Unwatchable.

[newfreep]

The “Flakester” is losing in his primary polls to Kelli Ward...so F.Chuck is throwing him a lifeline

[Reno89519]

Seems weak on Trump support. Have the networks opted to shut out the Trump administration?

[mazda77]

Todd can throw Flake an aircraft carrier and it would not stay afloat because he would shoot as many holes in the bottom as he has shot into his foot.

[bray]

Coal and oil are the most perfect fuels ever found. All you have to do is dig or drill it, transport it and burn. This is as efficient as it can get and if the gummit would stop the fake CO2 nonsense it would be more efficient.

[Reno89519]

The only one worth watching will be Chris Christie. He has so damaged himself, maybe began when you opted to reside in NJ, hug Obama, diss the 2nd amendment, close bridges and, recently, parks, which he then used as his private property. What a promising career destroyed. What will he say or do today? Can he redeem himself?

[Sacajaweau]

Glad to see Schiff vs Christie. Christie will clobber Schiff.

[rodguy911]

Here is a post I made over at AT earlier this morining which will be buried as deep as they can for one reason or another.
.............................
There are a lot of players in the op to get rid of Trump or at the very least influence the 2018 election which is what Russia, Russia, Russia is all about.
As Clarice so aptly points out the stock market is booming.Big business knows one of their own is running the show.
Meanwhile, we don't know if Seth Rich is really dead or sunning himself in Israel courtesy of DNC hack Dr. SAVA head of Medstar surgical wing at dc.
The Lynch/Bubba conversation was overheard by the pilot,Dimitri Noonan—now dead, who was then guarded by our best and brightest. The pilot overheard every word. It was recorded by the plane automatically but Paul Ryan sold him out for two million. Noonan is dead and Lynch and Bubba are off the hook.
https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Meanwhile Comey and Mueller have set up the President for losses in the 2018 elections. Numerous interviews of administration higher ups will be slammed with obstruction charges or tricked with a perjury trap. This is your intel agency—CIA op at work using deep staters Comey and Mueller.
Imran Awan may well be ISI and CIA we may never know.You will get a good indication in his upcoming hearing on minor charges that don't even touch the 1,000 cars his car dealer ship bought from Seth Rich killer Alpha Jollah whose gang was arrested for stealing 90 cars and then sold to West Africa.
https://www.youtube.com/wat...
There is a lot more but I'll be lucky if they even run this much on page 7.
.................
Here is another theory that I am in the process of figuring out,it's about just who Imran Awan really is.
This is the guy who has been working for either wiggy Wexler,Hillary or DWS for about 13 years now.
He managed to get control of some 80 congress critters phones and some of their computers as well.He got some top secret info and intel as well. So inquiring minds want to know why this guy is not in jail or dead.
..................
It looks like Imran is a paki ISI agent for sure. One of the things they,the Awan brothers, have been doing over here for 13 years is to gather intel for the Pakis and what better place than to get it from 80 congress critters by supplying them with cellphones and computers.Especially, when you already have the passwords so you can access them any time.
One of the congress critters,Jackie Speier, had access to top secret stuff as well.So that’s a pretty good bet that Imran and maybe some of the rest of his gang are ISI.
My thinking is that if “we” know this it’s likely the CIA knows it as well.
The CIA has going in that region of the world. Everything from making Obama look good by taking out Ben Laden(or his double we will never know) in Abbotobad to the poppy fields in Afghanistan. Those fields are not too far from Pakiville. Bearing that in mind the CIA would either have to deal with Imran or get rid of him.If he's too high up in the ISI they would probably deal with him since they have already pissed off the ISI for a number of reasons. Since pakiville has nukes and spy on lots of terror types the CIA needs them.They still have to deal with them for a variety of reasons.
In other words the CIA has a lot going on in the region.
If they could “turn” Imran which makes good sense and seems likely to me seeing how he gets a pass on almost everything, he could easily be playing both sides,ISI and CIA. Chances are good Imran is either a CIA mole or he would be dead.
IF so does he have diplomatic immunity is the next question?
George Webb has broached that question numerous times.It’s important since he could be smuggling almost anything from enriched uranium rods to heroin from across the border in Afghanistan. Also, a luxury cars fits in a diplomatic pouch as big as a container.
So that’s my theory and it also helps to explain how he gets out of all these jams so easily.He has a little help from some well placed friends not to mention DWS.
If he and his gang are not prosecuted which we will find out pretty quickly, IMHO, that would lend even more credence to him being a double agent.
Also not prosecuting him could get DWS off the proverbial hook for her many many crimes.
I guess we shall see.

Scaramucci fired/retired

---

I am so confused about this White House and the staff.

I thought that Scaramucci was a most handsome fellow but he got involved with that reporter and the curse words and yes, it does give pause, no?

Now we have a new Chief of Staff and it is apparent that President Trump is trying to get the “House” in order, such as it is.

Lots of rumors about the new Communications Director. Could be Laura Ingraham, could be Kelly Ann Conway.

We shall see.

THE BIGGEST STORY THIS YEAR!

---

Let us not quibble.

The arrest and discovery of that hoodlum gang of Pakistani spies in the House and able to dig up all things classified is the story of the year.

For Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is waist deep in this muck and I’m thinking former President Obama is involved and definitely Hillary.

For the Anwans sold used car, property not theirs and American intelligence to the highest bidder.

It is covered, slightly, in the Lamestream media, when there are all the elements of a hit movie.

It is rumored that Debbie Wasserman-Schultz(DWS) is involved romantically with her spy lover. Who worked for McDonald’s, by the way.

Heh.

There is a video showing DWS lambasting the DC police for daring to do their jobs….”there will be consequences”.

Heh.

What’s NOT a joke is that this crew was able to gain access to America’s intelligence and folks the Pakistanis are notorious with telling everyone around them what’s going on.

I am quite sure Hillary’s campaign benefitted from the sale of America’s intelligence.

THIS is the story that should be sweeping the air waves.

Editorial

Missing a couple of days this week because I had a stent put in my leg and all the hoo-hah involving that. Seems to have worked right well but still a bit sore.

There are TWO big stories this week.

One is Debbie Wasserman-Schulz(DWS) and her Pakistani family of her lover, a McDonald’s worker, owner of a money laundering car dealership and somebody’s mother.

Folks, this is a spy ring, pure and simple. Somebody from some terror organization is paying big money for America’s intelligence and DWS, along with President Obama, could care leass about America. It’s how much money they can get to keep themselves in power.

Second big story is Mueller’s grand jury empanelment, why?

Again, they could care less about America, America means nothing to them. It’s money and keeping them in power.

Finally I have figured out why congress of all parties are hiding and protection this gang of thieves, including NOT repealing Obama’s premier law……The Affordable Care Act.

HE WAS OUR FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT!!!!

Not that there weren’t gazillions of honorable black people who could have risen to President but they had to be willing to do Hillary’s bidding, obey Valeria Jarrett and accept money from all over the world, never mind who gives it.

Few meant that criteria except President Obama.

The GOPe and obviously the Democrats do not want to sully America’s first president’s reputation as a scoundrel and traitor and creator of horrible laws. For a real shocker, I think Jeff Sessions and other good guys are part of the plan to not destroy Obama’s reputation.

They are protecting Obama people.

And prosecuting Trump is part of the plan. Americans will keep their eyes here while the sins over here are ignored.

Let’s see how this DWS thing plays out on this week’s Sunday political talk shows.

[LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget]

Flake? Isn’t his approval in AZ around 31%?

Why yes, yes it is.

“Just 31% of those surveyed said they would vote for Flake if the election were held immediately”
