by Michael Goodwin     The New York Post   October 29, 2016   We must forgive Mark Twain for his error when he declared that “history never repeats itself but it often rhymes.” After all, he’d never met the Clintons. If Twain were alive now, he would be astonished at how the headlines over the e-mail scandal roiling the presidential race are virtual repeats of the family’s 1990s saga in power. Continue reading

A Speech by Donald Trump on October 13, 2016   The only people brave enough to vote out this corrupt establishment is you, the American People.   Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American People.  There is nothing the political establishment will not do, and no lie they will not tell, to hold on to their prestige and power at your expense.

by Joan Alagood   IT IS YOUR CHOICE: a candidate who, from a young age, admires Alinsky and socialist ideas OR a candidate who believes in individual rights, free markets and local control. YOUR CHOICE: a candidate with a family dynasty demonstrating 30 years of corruption and cover-up OR an outside-the-beltway  candidate who wants to "drain the DC swamp”. Continue reading

By Jim Waurishuk                 Colonel, USAF (Ret.)   AND WHY RUSSIA IS NOT IN THE MIX... Here's why the Mainstream Media, Hillary Clinton's campaign, the Democratic Party, the White House and most of the fact checking organizations, which are heavily slanted liberal left-wing, are incorrect and/or delusional about her email scandal:   their rationale, reason, distraction or just plain bogus explanation - Russia and Vladimir Putin and the Democrats' fabricated story that Putin and Donald Trump are longtime friends.

by Colonel Jim Waurishuk (Ret.)   Based on the left's reaction and commentary, they know they are being exposed, and as a result are in a desperate situation with the truth. As a result, we have now witnessed by the Clinton, Democrat Party and White House emails and corroboration with the MSM,  identifying the deliberate and intentionally planned violent attacks at Trump rallies, attempts to conduct voter fraud..

by Colonel Jim Waurishuk, Ret. They will marginalize anti-Trump Republicans labeling them as racists, bigots and xenophobes in order to persuade and push them in to the never-Trump camp to help spread their narrative, while at the same time attempting to and successfully demoralizing voters and creating doubt in their minds and yours that Donald Trump is not qualified, is unfit, or incapable of serving as President.

by Victor Davis Hanson                     October 17, 2016 Donald Trump needs a unified Republican party in the homestretch if he is to have any chance left of catching Hillary Clinton — along with winning higher percentages of the college-educated and women than currently support him. But even before the latest revelations from an eleven-year-old Access Hollywood tape, in which Trump crudely talked about women, he had long ago in the primaries gratuitously insulted his more moderate rivals and their supporters.

By Tom Trinko The media are saying that it’s okay for them to abandon their “impartiality”, as though anyone believed they ever were, because Trump is such an abnormal candidate. That Trump is so horrible that no matter what illegalities Hillary has committed or how frail her health may be, she’s better than Trump. As a proud former member of #NeverTrunp I have no problem saying that Trump is a far more normal presidential candidate than Hillary Clinton. Continue reading

by Bruce Bialosky                            www.Townhall.com In an election that has focused on the personal characteristics of the two major party candidates, I still believe that this election revolves around policy.

Sunday marks a solemn day for me.  It has been fifteen (15) years since September 11, 2001.  I was assigned to and serving in the Pentagon that day, a day forever seared in my mind and a day which each year since, brings forth a retching pain my heart because of what I witnessed and experienced. I've dealt with other crises and tragedies during my career in conflict and war, but 9/11 was most painful because it happened here at home, on American soil, and because it took nearly 3,000 American souls, with thousand more injured and wounded, simultaneously decimating families and friendships.

Labor Statistics Are the Tip Of The Jobless Iceberg The U.S. Government paints a rosy picture of jobless figures, celebrating the unemployment rate in August 2016 as 4.9%.  http://unemploymentdata.com/labor-force-participation-rate-2/.  But these figures only show the tip of the jobless iceberg.

by Allen West                                             posted on Townhall.com August 30, 2016 Something is happening in this presidential election cycle that has some folks totally up in arms. A white GOP presidential candidate is addressing the issues in the black community. And, of course, Donald J. Trump has kicked the hornet’s nest and is consistently castigated with the ultimate denigrating moniker of “racist.” Trump is finding out that there is a super-secret club handshake in the black community. And the only white people who have been provided that code are white liberal progressive socialists. Continue reading

By Bridget Tucker In 2012 Barack Hussein Obama received 66 million votes.  The Republican also-ran received 61 million.  Buried among these statistics is the fact that 93 million voters stayed home sleeping. That was then. Then the invasion at the border was less conspicuous.  Then cops could go to work without mortal danger.  Then children could use a bathroom with only members of their same sex.  Then no one knew Hillary had a secret server. Then few knew Hillary accepted money from Middle Eastern countries who treat women as second class citizens.  Then misogynist refugees were not attacking girls on the streets of Europe.  Then church members could follow their conscience.

What the Blame Stream Media Won’t Tell You... In his landmark immigration speech held in Arizona last evening,  Donald Trump expressed his love for the people of Mexico and his willingness to work together with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto. He reminded the audience that many illegal aliens are good people and that as president, he will treat all people fairly, justly and with compassion. He said we are ALL going to win by creating a new relationship between our two countries that is fair to both.     Continue reading

 August 16, 2016    by Donald J. Trump We are at a decisive moment in this election. Last week, I laid out my plan to bring jobs back to our country. Yesterday, I laid out my plan to defeat Radical Islamic Terrorism. Tonight, I am going to talk about how to make our communities safe again from crime and lawlessness. Let me begin by thanking the law enforcement officers here in this city, and across this country, for their service and sacrifice in difficult times. The violence, riots and destruction that have taken place in Milwaukee is an assault on the right of all citizens to live in security and peace. Law and order must be restored. It must be restored for the sake of all, but most especially the sake of those living in the affected communities. The main victims of these riots are law-abiding African-American citizens living in these neighborhoods. It is their jobs, their homes, their schools and communities which will suffer as a result.

  By Mike Kersmarki HCREC Member   The Johnson Amendment – named after former President LBJ from when he was a powerful U.S. Senator in the 1950s - has essentially taken away the freedom of speech from ministers and preachers and rabbis, etc.   The bottom line?  Religious leaders have been muzzling themselves for decades for fear of losing the tax-exempt status for their churches, synagogues, etc.   This is just plain wrong and yet another reason to end the tyranny of the IRS.

A Civilization That Believes In Nothing Will Ultimately Submit To Anything.  By Bret Stephens At last count, members of the European Union spent more than $200 billion a year on defense, fielded more than 2,000 jet fighters and 500 naval ships, and employed some 1.4 million military personnel.

From Politico By Darren Samuelsohn, Katie Glueck, Kyle Cheney and Daniel Strauss  For Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, their strategies for winning in November are compounded by a significant obstacle: They’ve already lost once in some of the most important counties in this election’s most important swing states. These battlegrounds — spread across the 11 battleground states from Jefferson County in Colorado to Brown County in Wisconsin to Scott County in Iowa — have become epicenters of the 2016 campaign. Both campaigns know it too, and that’s why the candidates and their surrogates have been scrambling to crisscross the country for personal visits to these places as the White House race enters a final lap. Close to 50 interviews with GOP and Democratic party chairs from 25 of the most vital counties on the map — counties that are poised to play a major role in determining their state’s outcome either because of their size or voting history — revealed Trump himself is on his own mission to learn as much as he can from the local officials who know their voters the best.

by Christian Ziegler Just when I thought that the Federal Government couldn't act more ridiculous than allowing "Sanctuary Cities" to harbor law-breakers, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency recently put out a "How To" guide to avoid enforcement by instituting "Safe Zones" for illegal aliens. These "Safe Zones" have been put in place to allow law-breakers the ability to "participate in activities" or "utilize services" in our country "without fear or hesitation". Continue reading

  Call to Action!  August 3, 2016       Dear Joan,      Hat tip to Florida Family Action:  URGENT ACTION ALERT: Florida Governor Rick Scott's office is about to oversee a DCF rule change requiring minor girls in foster care group homes to live in rooms with and sleep right alongside of boys who "feel" like they are girls. Contact Governor Scott immediately and ask him to stop this madness and protect children in foster care by requiring only ACTUAL biological girls to be housed in girls' group homes.  TAKE ACTION NOW: Contact Governor Rick Scott and ask him to protect the safety, privacy, and security needs of all of Florida's children in foster care.     Continue reading

Not Your Father's Democratic Party The Democratic National Platform of 1960 celebrated self-reliance and individual dignity.   It aimed to balance the budget. “Ask not what your country can do for you, rather ask: what can YOU do for your country?” John F. Kennedy famously exclaimed.  He supported tax cuts and budget surpluses.  Freedom, not socialism.  Personal responsibility, not whining nor blaming.  Continue reading

A young Florida cattleman seeking his fortune acquired a business loan from the Exchange Bank of Tampa, leased 14,000 thousand acres near the Everglades and spent hot sweaty months stringing barbed wire, pole by pole, around the 15 mile perimeter.  Emmett Sumner then purchased 300 head of steer and transported them several hundred miles. It was 1947. Continue reading

OR under anti-constitutional activist judges where “the law is flexible” and undefined, subject to the judge’s feelings of “(social) justice” where in you have no input and become a servant to them (serfdom)?

The one thing made clear by the bizarre decision not to charge Hillary Clinton with federal violations over her reckless endangerment of national security is that Hillary Clinton simply cannot be president.  Whatever else happens, someone so corrupt, so cavalier about the security of the country, so willing to put her own secrets above the basic safety of the nation is unfit at every level to be President of the United States.

Memorial Day Thoughts " Greater Love  Hath No Man Than This, That He Lay Down His Life For His Friends"  John 15:13 WE REFLECT .      WE REMEMBER. WE THANK YOU FOR OUR FREEDOM EVERY DAY.  

Dems Judge Color, Republicans Judge Character Who are the real racists?  It is Democrats who judge you by the color of your skin, your career in law enforcement or your political affiliation.  The level of melatonin in your skin, your profession as a policeman or your voter registration engenders a knee jerk reaction from the ranting racists who reside on the Left. In the mean-spirited minds of the Left, if you are a cop, you must be racist. If you are a Republican, you are racist.  Sorry to tell you Dems, your demagoguery, your retreaded refrain, is getting old. When Dems point a finger at cops and Republicans, there are four pointing back at themselves. Look at the facts. Who fought to maintain and expand slavery?  Democrats. Who was the Party of Jim Crow?  Democrats. The 13th Amendment abolishing slavery passed with 100% Republican support and only 23% Democrat support. Who wages the unsuccessful 50 year War on Poverty, creating five decades of dependence on government and decimating intact families?  Democrats.     Continue reading

TAMARGO SHARES POLITICAL INSIGHT WITH USF WOMEN’S GROUP By Mike Kersmarki Get involved, volunteer, find an internship and, most of all, don’t be afraid to try something new. That was some of the advice given by Deborah Tamargo and others recently to a mostly student audience of several dozen women at the University of South Florida. And for those interested in politics?  Get involved in student government and, more importantly, learn as much as you can from as many diverse sources of information as possible – from think tanks to many types of media - said Tamargo, chairwoman of the Hillsborough County Republican Party. “You can be very natural and very outgoing” to impress voters if you run for office, said Tamargo, a former Florida state representative.  “But you can fail because you don’t have the substantive part in your suitcase … be prepared; you’ve got to have that data.  You also have to have the passion.”  Continue reading

  SEEKING UNITY Advice from Benjamin Franklin - 1787 ‘’The Constitutional Convention had been meeting for five weeks and had hit a perilous deadlock. The large states were insisting that congressional representation be based on population; the smaller states wanted a one-state-one-vote rule. The entire effort to create a stronger union was in jeopardy. Eighty-one-year-old Benjamin Franklin, quiet during most of the deliberations, then addressed the group. According to James Madison's notes, here is what happened next.’’ ’Mr. President: The small progress we have made after four or five weeks close attendance and continual reasoning with each other — our different sentiments on almost every question, several of the last producing as many noes as ayes, is methinks a melancholy proof of the imperfection of the Human Understanding. We indeed seem to feel our own wont of political wisdom, since we have been running about in search of it. We have gone back to ancient history for models of government, and examined the different forms of those Republics which, having been formed with the seeds of their own dissolution, now no longer exist. And we have viewed Modern States all round Europe, but find none of their Constitutions suitable to our circumstances. In this situation of this Assembly groping as it were in the dark to find political truth, and scarce able to distinguish it when to us, how has it happened, Sir, that we have not hitherto once thought of humbly applying to the Father of Lights to illuminate our understandings? In the beginning of the contest with G. Britain, when we were sensible of danger, we had daily prayer in this room for the Divine Protection. — Continue reading
