One thing is becoming more and more obvious every day: The United States is no longer united. When it comes to the term "America," people in this country are not of the same mind. We don't even believe in the same flag or what it stands for. Any spirit of nationalism or of standing together has long since been eliminated by the Obamas, the Spiros', the Clintons, the Waters, the Lees, the Pelosi's, the Schumers and the rest of the mean-spirited, spiteful and vindictive left created by those who are outright liars when they profess to want the best that can be had for this country.
Nothing... nothing... going on in this country today is going to instill in those who will hold the future of our country in their hands, the youth, with any sense of patriotism, of justice, of history, of right versus wrong. I honestly think Trump is trying to jerk the ship of state back around to its proper course, but he is fighting almost insurmountable odds. Not only have the leaders of the country abrogated their solemn, pledged obligations to follow our Constitution, but we Americans have allowed them to do so with a mere shrug of the shoulders and a feeling of resignation.
When you create a nation of sheep who don't care anymore, the conditions become ripe for the overthrow of the government; chaos and insurrection will always follow. The decision as to whether or not to allow that to happen is in our hands.
Please don't pull an NFL and fumble the ball.

South Korea says North Korea is getting ready to launch a satellite into space. Given what we know about their nuclear weapons program, it is entirely possible that this "satellite" launch is a coverup for something far more sinister.
We already know that they have missiles capable of reaching the U.S. The only thing preventing their ability to use such a missile to send a nuke to U.S. soil is the ability to miniaturize a nuclear bomb to the point that it can be carried by that missile. The "full-speed-ahead" strategy for their program makes it entirely possible that they are close to that point. Therefore, this "satellite launch" could be a test to see if their missiles can successfully carry an object the size and weight of a miniaturized nuclear bomb.
The sanctions they are under prohibit missile launches and satellite launches, so this upcoming launch is another poke in the eye for the U.S. anyway and it signals that Kim Jong un doesn't care how many sanctions we put on his country, he is bound and determined to achieve nuclear launch capability early in 2018.
His next likely move would be to order the U.S. to get out of South Korea... or else. And we all know what his next likely move would be after that.
Forget all of the talk and the sanctions. They're not working and are not going to work. Kim has backed himself into a corner by his continued rhetoric; backing down would amount to losing face and could even lead to his overthrow. He is totally aware of that possibility and is therefore committed to proceeding, no matter how tough the going gets.
To his credit, Trump has no intentions of allowing allowing any tin-horn dictator to hold our country hostage.
This all leads to the inescapable conclusion that military action will take place in 2018. And my analysis of the probability that North Korea would start firing off artillery at Seoul is that it is a decision similar to the one Truman had about using the nukes on Japan to bring about the end of World War II: it would be a better proposition to risk the lives of 200,000 or more people in Seoul than the lives of a million in Los Angeles. Had not Truman acted, millions undoubtedly would have been killed before the end of WW II.

This new tax bill does leave a lot to be desired. Tax simplification? Seven brackets? Investment tax credit? Forget it.
But, it's still better than nothing and maybe... hopefully... it's a start for better things to come.
I just don't understand why everybody is so gleeful about it.
All of this makes me wonder, of course... Does Santa Claus pay taxes?
See you next week and let's all pray that Kim Jong Umpf doesn't get missile toes.

Intelligence sources indicate that both China and Russia are gearing up to attack the United States if we try to do anything militarily with their ally, North Korea.
What a fine kettle of trepidation Obama got us into, but then again... he thinks Chairman Mao was the cat's ass.

The United States Department of Justice is infected with scum. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is an obstructionist who is stonewalling Congress on requests for documents and information; he hired Robert Mueller as Special Counsel to investigate alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, but that project has branched out and escalated into a full-fledged investigation of all top-level Trump employees and associates and is not confined to "Russian-Trump collusion."
It is has been evident from the start that the Office of the Special Counsel was not established to provide an even-handed, unbiased investigation. Instead of hiring experts with apolitical backgrounds, Mueller has hired a team of Democrat cronies and it is becoming increasingly evident that they all despise Trump as well as anyone associated with him. Some of them even forked for one or more of the Clinton operations. However, most of us expected that the investigation would be fair and actually looked forward to it.
The FBI has also proven itself to be a political organization of the Clinton-Obama machine. Their mission has morphed from investigating crime and providing justice in the good old American way to carrying out the political objectives of the Democrat regime and covering for the associated criminal activities.
Presiding over all of this is Attorney General Jeff Sessions. It appears to even the novice watcher that he is either part of the machine that seeks to unseat Trump or that he is incapable of being in the top leadership role in the department. Any man of responsible integrity would have ended the Mueller charade months ago.
Mr. Trump, it's time to clean house.

When Presidential Assistant Omarosa Manigault-Newman resigned the other day, she did so quietly and privately in a meeting with Chief of Staff John Kelly in the Situation Room. The situation room is probably the most secure room in the nation, certainly in the White House, because of the nature of what goes on there. So, that anyone outside the White House knew that she had a meeting there with John Kelly in the first place defies imagination.
She says she only intended to work in the White House for a year and then to get on with her life. She has worked for and with Trump for over 14 years. She says she respects and admires John Kelly and indicates that he has made many positive changes in the White House. Nevertheless, she was "troubled about some things, which she will reveal after her notice is up and she leaves on January 20th.
Now then, CNN hits the headlines the very next day with a story about how she had been dragged out of the White House kicking and screaming after raising a public ruckus in a party with 600 guests and then tried to gain access to Trump's residence, supposedly to scream and yell at him. During all of this alleged conniption fit, Kelly supposedly fired her. Well, the Secret Service denies that version and says Manigault-Newman was not dragged out of anywhere and there were no "scenes" created. She also denies that version and one does have to wonder... with 600 guests in that party, why has not one picture or voice recording of the "scene" emerged?
CNN has proven for the umpteenth time that it is reckless, feckless, irresponsible and worthless.

I've said it several times in my various posts over the last two weeks: The new tax plan about to be shoved down our throats and being misrepresented as the best thing since sliced bread is nowhere near as good as every Member of Congress and the President would like you to think it is. Furthermore, it now seems that more and more people, upon taking a closer look at what the fine print says, are agreeing with me.
- It does NOT make tax filing easier or more simple
- It does NOT reduce taxes for most middle income Americans
Yes, corporations will see some significant breaks and incentives, but you and I will not. What they give us with the one hand, they take away with the other.
It's a sham. It's an exact replica of what they tried to do with the repeal and replacement of ObamaCare: one great big tube of bologna.
If you don't believe me... check out the fine print.

Just how many times have you heard Congressional leaders proclaim, "We'r going to call those culprits before a committee, grill them to the ends of the earth and get to the bottom of this?" And just how many such hearings have they had over the last eight or nine years... 100...500? And just how many times have they forced straight answers and "gotten to the bottom of this?"
ZERO.
The fact is that we're had countless government officials hauled into Congress over the years who have flipped Congress and the American people off and they've gotten away with it. Eric Holder did get held in Contempt of Congress and that was the end of that; no punishment, no sanctions, no firing. The new FBI guy, supposedly fair-minded and non-partisan, just refused to answer several key questions to a House committee and he got totally away with it. You've got the Department of Justice... the Department of Justice... and the FBI and the Department of State... refusing to answer subpoenas for documents or to even acknowledge that Congress wants answers.
But, nothing happens.
It's all one big smoke-and-mirrors charade. They're all in cahoots with each other against us and our Constitution. Nothing is getting done, the country is running adrift and the cultural politics of graft, crime and corruption continues unabated throughout government.
So, just whose responsibility is it to fix this, anyway? And, how do we do it if we just continue to ignore it? You know damned well that we're going to have to pay for our complacency sooner or later.

How long has it been since Congress passed a full annual budget without resorting to half a dozen "continuing resolutions" in the process? Now they're down to passing a continuing resolution that only lasts for two weeks?
And we elect these worthless idiots and follow it up by paying them?
They're obviously all much too busy groping to get the job done.

I wonder how Kate Steinle's family feels now that her murderer got off
scot-free in San Francisco? And, isn't it great that we in California
now live in a sanctuary state? I think that makes us all
complicit in her death and in his innocent verdict, because none of us
in California is standing up and doing anything about it. Merry
Christmas, everybody... enjoy your inner peace what we have all become.

I am beyond angry. I am beyond disgusted.
Jose Ines Garcia Zarate was found not guilty last week by liberal left-wing zealots in the death of Kate Steinle.
The scales of justice no longer exist. Our way of life and our Constitution have been successfully usurped.
May God damn San Francisco and everyone in it. May they all rot in hell.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
Jose Ines Garcia Zarate was found not guilty yesterday in the death of Kate Steinle. What else could we expect out of a city that declares itself to be a "sanctuary" that allows scum like Zarate to run free?
I hope they all can rationalize themselves into being "not guilty" as well. Somehow, I don't think a damned one of them can get past the pearly gates.
