‘Walls Work!’ Trump goes to bat for his wall again in early morning tweets as he quotes Obama and Hillary historic statements calling for better borders

  • Trump tweeted on Sunday quotes from former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton calling for better borders
  • He added that the reason Democrats are against building a border wall is because ‘walls work’  
  • Senate minority Chuck Schumer revealed Trump threatened to prolong the  partial government shutdown for ‘months or even years’
  • The president confirmed this during a Rose Garden press conference and added he was ‘proud’ to do so
  • The shutdown began on December 22 and is now in its sixteenth day 
  • Trump added he’s considering declaring national emergency to get the wall built
  • Vice President Mike Pence floated a $2.5 billion compromise from Congress

*** begin quote ***

President Donald Trump went to bat for his wall at the US-Mexico border by quoting  his predecessors.

The commander-in-chief sent out tweets early Sunday morning that drew on past statements made by former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

‘”We simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States undetected, undocumented, unchecked…” Barrack [sic] Obama, 2005,’ the first part of the tweet reads, which was spoken by Obama at a December 2005 press conference in Florida.

*** end quote ***

Clearly this is ALL political.  All politics all the time.  And tiresome.

For two years, when the R’s controlled everything, Obamacare was NOT repealed and the Wall wasn’t funded.  Now suddenly, it’s a problem.

Why do we have such problems on the Southern Border but not on the Northern one?

I think having “illegal immigrants” die in the desert of the Souther Border is unacceptable.

I think having “illegal immigrants” collecting welfare is unacceptable. (Anyone collecting “welfare” is unacceptable.)

I think having “illegal immigrants” being forced to come here illegally  is unacceptable.

I think that the politicians and bureaucrats politicizing “illegal immigrants”  is unacceptable.

Argh!

The American Dream is Being Held Hostage – Gold Telegraph

Saturday, January 5, 2019

If the current trend of cutting taxes without decreasing entitlement programs continues, the budget deficit will likely reach or exceed $2 trillion within the next ten years. It will bloat from 3.8 percent of GDP in 2018 to an excess of 7 percent of GDP in a decade. By 2018, the budget deficit will reach 10.5 percent of GDP. Within 20 years, the national debt with be 148 percent of GDP. Americans will become hostage to massive spending and out-of-control debt. With Democrats viewing increased spending and more government expansion as a magic carpet ride, the debt explosion may already be in sight. Their siren song of “Medicare for all” is attracting a great deal of favorable attention.

Grubhub Class-Action Suit Filed by Philly Indian Restaurant Chain Tiffin

Saturday, January 5, 2019

The thing is, points out Narula’s lawsuit, the phone number listed on the Grubhub app is not actually the restaurant’s phone number. We checked the Grubhub landing pages for several Philadelphia restaurants and, sure enough, a different number is listed than the one registered to the restaurant. When you call the number on the Grubhub landing page, the call is rerouted to the restaurant’s own phone number, and you have your conversation with the restaurant directly. Grubhub has no involvement.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Proposes Massive Tax Hike on the Wealthy

Saturday, January 5, 2019

The 29-year old congresswoman, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who just took office says tax rates for the nation’s wealthiest should increase to as much 70 percent to fund a new initiative to combat climate change — even if that means she’s labeled a “radical.” “If that’s what radical means, call me a radical,” she said in an interview with CBS’ “60 Minutes” that will air in full on Sunday. “That

This is What Socialism Looks Like: Venezuela Oil Exports Slump to a 28-Year Low

Saturday, January 5, 2019

Nicolas Maduro Venezuela is home to the world’s biggest crude reserves, but the country exported only 1.245 million barrels a day last year, the lowest since 1990. This is what happens when a dictator runs a sector of the economy in socialist style and launches an immediate money grab.

A doctor who tweeted that she would ‘purposely give all the Jews the wrong meds’ has been found to have been posting anti-Semitic messages on social media for years.

Dr Lara Kollab, 27, a former resident at The Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio, wrote in now-deleted posts that she hoped ‘Allah will kill the Jews’ and referred to Jewish people as ‘dogs’.

The Cleveland Clinic has since condemned Dr Kollab, who retains her medical license, and confirmed that she is no longer working at the hospital.

*** end quote ***

Clearly, this is unacceptable in the USA.

Not that she can NOT have racist views.  But she can’t overtly threaten to harm people.

For that reason alone, she should lose her medical license.

She can always do pharma sales calling on only Jewish doctors?

That sounds like a plan.
