Next Saturday will mark the first 100 days of President Trump’s time in office. During his Presidency, the Commander in Chief has made a substantial amount of progress. For starters, he signed an executive order that will protect this country from unknowingly importing foreign terrorists. The President also signed the ‘Buy American, Hire American’ executive order, an order that will ensure the security of American workers and halt abuse of the U.S. H-1B work visa program. Additionally, he took the initiative of prohibiting drug misuse and promoting women in STEM fields. Protecting this nation from terrorism and people who seek...

Important to remember this as the cuck Dems and their allies in cuck the media attack Trump everyday. That's how it is going to be and we can handle it. So can Trump. We are slowly getting the ship of state righted and heading in the right direction. It takes time to shift the course of such a bloated bureaucracy. He’s cancelled TPP (The Trans Pacific Partnership) that would have caused more jobs to go overseas. He met with Tech giants like Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook and Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos along with many others all at once to discuss...

Every means possible to stop Trump continues. Nothing is considered unethical or unfair. So let’s take a look at his amazing achievements. Getting acquainted with them before opponents airbrush them out of the picture.

In Carly Fiorina’s interview with Katie Couric from May, Fiorina went on and on about how if you don’t have a room full of “diversity” when making an important decision, you will not get the decision right. For Fiorina, it’s all about hiring women (and of course anyone else who isn’t a straight white male), and she goes on at length insisting that women in top positions absolutely and necessarily equates to merit; guarantees merit — the same thing Hillary Clinton just said, by the way. I had been inclined very favorably toward Fiorina, especially because of her ability to...

Eight years ago Barack Obama bound his own party to what proved to be a successful class warfare platform–for him, at least. Unfortunately, and largely due to him, that binding turned out to be more of a hamstringing: there isn’t much of the party he brought along with him left in Washington. Obama’s constant narrative of division by wealth, sex, race and geography (urban vs. suburban/rural, coasts vs. heartland), is wholly dependent upon grooming and molding enough elected talent within the party to keep it growing. And yet all that’s left of the vibrant, rising, seemingly invincible party that Obama...

Meteor of death Hillary Clinton’s trail of fire, devastation and scorched earth leaves nothing living in its wake. Would any serious person hire someone with this résumé to be chief executive of a pizza parlor, never mind the government of the United States? Here’s a list of Hillary’s “accomplishments” during her career.  Behold her curriculum vitae: Watergate Judiciary (1973):  Jerry Zeifman, chief counsel to the House Judiciary committee during Watergate, said he fired Hillary for “unethical behavior” and conspiracy to deny Nixon counsel during hearings.  “Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She...

First President to apply for college aid as a foreign student... then deny he was a foreigner. First President to have a social security number from a state he has never lived in. First President to preside over a cut to the credit-rating of the United States. First President to violate the War Powers Act. First President to be held in contempt of court for illegally obstructing oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. First President to defy a Federal Judge’s court order to cease implementing the Health Care Reform Law. First President to require all Americans to purchase a...

Using the measure of positive accomplishments, only one candidate this year has achieved the meaningful, conservative change in Washington that we need. That candidate is the only one whose past performance will ensure the conservative, free market, pro-liberty solutions that will save our country and return us to prosperity. That candidate is Newt Gingrich.

“I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president — with the possible exceptions of Johnson, FDR, and Lincoln — just in terms of what we've gotten done in modern history.” So spake Barack Obama, in an interview with 60 Minutes earlier this month. The news program left the above braggadocio out of its broadcast, a fact some attribute to media bias. According to my sources, however, the real story is that by that time Obama’s head had swelled to a point where it blocked out the camera. Critics were quick to...

You don’t have to look far to find “stupid” or “dumb” remarks about Sarah Palin. Whether it is comments in online editorials or people voicing their “stupid” remarks about her in youtube videos, you can always find some critical voice bewailing her alleged stupidity and lack of education. But is Sarah Palin really as stupid as some people would like to think? Let’s take a look. Governor Palin is the daughter of a school teacher. Of course, that alone would tell most people that having an educator for a parent probably ensures the child will end up with a good...

I recently sent a very liberal friend of mine my opinion that Obma is incompetent and has accomplished anything. To which she proudly sent me a list of his accomplishments thinking that would shut me up. Here is what she wrote: As of March 18, 2010: 1. Ordered all federal agencies to undertake a study and make recommendations for ways to cut spending 2. Ordered a review of all federal operations to identify and cut wasteful spending and practices 3. Instituted enforcement for equal pay for women 4. Beginning the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq 5. Families of fallen...

Due in part to the ineptness of the McCain campaign in 2008 and the mischaracterization and flat out lies from the media over the 20 months, Governor Palin's gubernatorial accomplishments are largely either misunderstood or unknown. However, Governor Palin accomplished quite a lot in her 2 and a half years as governor of Alaska. As supporters of the Governor, I thought it might be a good idea to have a handy resource of Palin's gubernatorial accomplishments. This may allow us to correct the record for our friends and family who may still think that the Governor personally shot wolves from...

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27, 2010 – Most people would be hard-pressed to squeeze the highlights of their past year – and what they hope to accomplish in the year ahead -- into 50 seconds. Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates took a crack at it in, ticking off the Defense Department’s most significant milestones since January 2009. The secretary focused on three top efforts: the war effort in Afghanistan, the drawdown of U.S. forces in Iraq, and submission of a defense budget that supports major reforms while increasing military capabilities and taking care of troops and their families. Operations in Afghanistan topped...

Obama was awarded the Nobel Prize only twelve days after his inauguration. By then, some anonymous figure decided Obama had already saved the world, and by then, the liberal/socialist fix was in. Obama now shares the honor of receiving a Nobel Prize with his fellow agent of man-caused disaster (which the left likes to call "change"), Yassar Arafat. And of course, he also shares the great honor of the Nobel with the previous Worst American President Ever, Jimmy Carter. Someone tracked down the itinerary of the Twelve Days That Saved The World: January 20: Sworn in as president. Went to...

The last 45 of my 66 years I’ve spent in a commercial fishing town in Alaska. I understand Alaska politics but never understood national politics well until this last year. Here’s the breaking point: Neither side of the Palin controversy gets it…It’s not about persona, style, rhetoric, it’s about doing things. Even Palin supporters never mention the things that I’m about to mention here. 1- Democrats forget when Palin was the Darling of the Democrats, because as soon as Palin took the Governor’s office away from a fellow Republican and tough SOB, Frank Murkowski, she tore into the Republican’s “Corrupt...

ABOARD A U.S. MILITARY AIRCRAFT, July 29, 2009 – Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates said today he is heartened by his visit to Iraq, and that he urged Arab and Kurd Iraqis to use the good offices of the United States to help solve their problems. Gates said he is so encouraged by the situation in Iraq that American forces may speed up their drawdown, with an additional brigade coming out of the country before the elections in January. He said his view was bolstered by conversations with Army Gen. Raymond T. Odierno, commander of Multinational Force Iraq. Gates visited...

When I was about 5 years old, my best friend’s house burned to the ground. Our family was awakened in the middle of the night and I remember looking out the window in my sister’s bedroom watching as my friend’s house was burning. Mother and my sister were both crying while Daddy went to see if he could help our neighbors. I asked my mother why it had happened. I remember her answer as clearly today over 50 years later; she said, “Nobody really knows why bad things happen to good people, but it always seems that it works out...

As the 110th Congress comes to a close, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says he's feeling pretty good about the work he and his colleagues accomplished. "Democrats were able to achieve many things for the American people," he said, offering as examples raising the minimum wage, increasing funding for veterans and helping consumers in a struggling economy. Add to that list new lobbying rules, an energy bill, a farm bill, and most recently an economic recover package. But as significant as those new laws are, Democrats have just as long a list of priorities they were not able to bring...
