    My good friends at Free Republic. We must force Congress to live under the same laws as all of us normal Americans. The time is now. We are not surfs. We own this country, we make it run. The Trump Presidency has given us the window we need to fix our criminal Congress. No Congressman should get lifetime anything in excess of what any U.S Soldier, Sailor, Airman, or Marine, Coast Guard earn defending this country. No special health care, No lifetime perks, no insider trading. We must show up at every event where our elected representatives and make it...
  • Vanity: Trump did not realize he needs multiple kamikaze teams in the executive branch

    07/26/2017 2:21:14 PM PDT · by ArgylEllis · 14 replies
    President Trump did not realize, in the beginning, that he would need "kamikaze teams" in the executive branch. (This expression is taken from Yegor Gaidar, Russia's prime minister from June through December 1992, who afterwards said his was a "kamikaze team" to implement as much free-market reform as possible before inevitably being thrown out.) Also one can think of Mikheil Saakashvili, the former Georgian prime minister, who in 2000-01 was first the well-regarded and very successful justice minister, who reform corrupt police system. He said later, "After six waves of reform, the cops finally stopping pulling you over on the...

    The politicians often refer to "regular order." Yesterday John McCain called for a "return to regular order". Can anyone explain to the uninitiated what "regular order" is and how it differs from "irregular order"(!) ?

    Who sent out the "loyal supporter" memo? It's like an army of, douchey wind-up cacklers was set upon us. Please stop. Someone tell me what kind of "loyal supporter" Attorney General wakes up one day and recuses himself from the most high profile witch hunt in history - without even the courtesy of a SIMPLE PHONE CALL. I didn't know "Loyal Supporters" ™ made a practice of surprising their bosses in such a way. "But Jeff was there in the beginning." Yes - for himself. In his very pro-Trump constituency, he risked NOTHING and gained everything by backing Trump. We...

    Just listened to a segment on a local radio show this morning with that pinhead NeverTrumper Lt. Col. Ralph Peters. This putz was actually trying to defend the NYT, WaPo and CNN claiming that they are doing a good service for the American public through their investigative reporting. He should go clean McCain's colostomy bag.

  • ALASKANS HAVE TO BEG FOR AN ELEVEN MILE ROAD

    07/23/2017 1:07:26 PM PDT · by cradle of freedom · 57 replies
    I was shocked by what I saw on CSPAN a few days ago. There was a session in the House composed of a small group of both Republicans and Democrats debating whether a small town in Alaska should get money for an eleven mile road to connect up to civilization. The Alaskans were Republicans and the Democrats consisted of Niki Tsongas (Massachusetts), Grijalva (Arizona) and a couple more Democrats from other states. The Alaskans asked for the road so that people could get to an airport to access a hospital. Niki Tsongas said no because it would harm the environment...

    Putting Mueller Back in the Box Rod Rosenstein violated DoJ Regulations when he appointed a Special Counsel. Then Special Counsel Mueller overstepped his jurisdiction. Let's break that down. Here is the appointment. The Special Counsel is authorized to conduct the investigation confirmed by then-FBI Director James B. Comey in testimony before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence on March 20, 2017, including: (i) any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump; and (ii) any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation; and (iii) any other matters...

    Wall Street Journal writer Joseph Rago found dead in his apartment . He was reportedly investigating Hillary's involvement in the purchase of Russian drug company Veropharm by Abbot Labs at a time in 2014 when sanctions against Russia would have prevented the sale. The purchase was accomplished by a US shell company named Kew Garden Hills, LLC (registered in Delaware –and- Hillary Clinton’s home State of New York) acquiring approximately 98% of Veropharm shares—and then their being bought by Abbott Laboratories. Hillary has ties to both Abbot Labs and Kew Garden Hills LLC. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/nation_world/wall-street-journal-writer-joseph-rago-found-dead-in-his-apartment-20170722.html Critical to note about Abbott Laboratories...

    07/22/2017 4:45:03 PM PDT · by cradle of freedom · 22 replies
    Here are some of Obama's classic gems as spoken on national television from his own mouth. 1)On the superiority of Obama care to the previous system that he wrecked: Before, doctors instead of teaching diabetics about proper eating and exercise, they would just let them get sick so they could just cut the patients foot off so they could get more insurance money. 2) The police acted stupidly. 3) If I had a son he would look like Trayvon Martin. (Hint, hint get the gasoline. Lots of 100% discounts tonight.) 4) We are going to punish our enemies and reward...

    When a relative of mine who lives in Congressman Bergman's district in Michigan called his D.C. office to ask them why he was one of only 24 Republicans who voted against the amendment to stop funding for transgender surgeries in the military, a staff member for Congressman Jack Bergman, retired United States Marine Corps Lieutenant General, and the current U.S. Representative for Michigan's 1st congressional district (Northern Michigan - Bart Stupak's old seat), said that both President Trump and Bergman's friend and fellow retired Marine, Secretary of Defense James "Mad Dog" Mattis, both advised Congressman Bergman to vote against that...

    We're hardly hearing anything about this but it stinks to high heaven. Fox finally reported on it this AM and said that Mohammed is not talking with investigators. This tells me there's WAY more to the story and it's all about his religion. If he's not talking, what happens? Does liberal MN just cut him loose and chalk it up to itchy fingers? Are the other reported cases about him related to his religion as well? When will we hear more from Harrity, his partner? It's time to expose this evil for what it is. The silver lining is that...

    Response time seems to be back to normal (for now). Sorry, don't know why. The system was dragging all day, but started working normally for the past hour or so. Thought maybe John had found and fixed the problem, but he said no. He doesn't know either. We have several servers running at the data center and most of them have been running fine. Could be the network switch or the front-end router/server (but it seems to be working fine). The database server isn't even breathing hard. The webservers are getting bogged down occasionally, but don't know yet if that's...

    The GOP must repeal and replace Obamacare now. We don't need to collaborate with the Dems. We don't need to Repeal now and Replace later. The Replace part will happen later and will happen desparately. The Senate GOP has to twist arms until they get 50 Senators to vote YES.
