Donald Trump Just Delivered The Mature Foreign Policy America Needs

Donald Trump Just Delivered The Mature Foreign Policy America Needs Whether this President lives up to his vision is another matter and will largely be for history to judge. But his stated foreign policy is mature, stable, and needed. It is grounded in historic American leadership around the world, not isolationism, and not multinational interventionism. President Trump's immediate predecessor took the world stage and often made it seem he though no nation was better or worse, but all were equal. Every nation said the same thing about how great their nation was and their nation was the best. We did it too as team sport, in Obama's mind, but his policies were premised on us not being the best nation. Yesterday at the United Nations, President Trump all but declared the United States actually really is the best damn nation that ever was, but is humble enough not to try to force everyone to our level. I'll take it!

How Women are Treated by Islam...No Respect!

How Women are Treated by Islam by Denis MacEoin • September 16, 2017 at 5:00 am "No one wants to demonise a particular community but the fact that this is happening again and again in the same circumstances and communities is a fact we cannot ignore. I think there needs to be a national approach..." — Greg Stone, Liberal Democrat party. If we look at a list of 265 convictions for grooming gangs and individuals in the UK between November 1997 and January 2017 (and if we add on another 18 for the recent Newcastle gang), we will note that more than 99% are for Muslim men, mainly young men in their 20s and 30s. It is, however, not just white (that is, non-Muslim) women whom Muslim men hold in such contempt. This abuse starts at home in Islamic countries in the treatment of Muslim women. Its roots lie in aspects of Islamic law and doctrine that are retained in the 21st century, despite having been formulated in the 7th century and later. The idea that a man is not responsible for rape or other sexual assault and that women bear the blame for such a crime goes far to help explain why Muslim men in Britain and elsewhere may feel themselves justified in grooming and sexually abusing young women and girls far less well covered.

(Photo by Paula Bronstein/Getty Images) Newcastle upon Tyne is a small city in the North-East of England which, in 2017, was acclaimed the best city in the UK in which to raise children (London was the worst). Imagine, then, the shock when the city again became national news on August 9 when a trial at the Crown Court ended in the conviction of 18 people for the sexual grooming of children. Juries "found the men guilty of a catalogue of nearly 100 offences – including rape, human trafficking, conspiracy to incite prostitution and drug supply – between 2011 and 2014." Of the 18, one was a white British woman. The rest were males of Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Indian, Iraqi, Turkish and Iranian backgrounds, all with Muslim names. Continue Reading Article

Trump’s Paycheck....

This will hit the news sooner or later! Recently, the Trump administration released their annual report to Congress on White House Office Personnel. It includes the name, status, salary and position title of all 377 White House employees. The report also said that Trump decided not to take a dime of his salary, instead he donated it to an amazing cause! (see below) The report also showed that President Trump is far better at saving money than Obama was. The total annual White House salaries under trump are $35.8 million vs. $40.9 under Obama, a savings of $5.1 million. Here are some other key findings: There are 110 fewer employees on White House staff under Trump than under Obama at this point in their respective presidencies. Nineteen fewer staffers are dedicated to The First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS). Currently, there are five staffers dedicated to Melania Trump vs. 24 staffers who served Michelle Obama (FY2009). However, it’s what the report said Trump did with this salary that has everyone talking. Instead of taking his salary, Trump donated all $400,000 to the Department of the Interior, where it will be used for construction and repair needs at military cemeteries! It’s so great to have a President who loves our brave military men and women so much. Oh, and where’s the media coverage of this? Oh that’s right, they don’t cover anything good that the president does. "Our democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not." -- Thomas Jefferson The penalty for wise men that refuse to concern themselves with the affairs of Government, is to be governed by unwise Men -- Plato

Thoughts concerning today’s military commanders...

After spending 30+ years in uniform Iam very critical of the recent/past military promotion of field commanders. I believe that many have been promoted and given command based on their political correctness and willingness to parrot the feel good social engineering emphasized by political leaders over the last 10 years or so! Officers and Ncos failings political correctness qualifications and/or not parroting the social engineering party line were not promoted and/or driven out of the services. Cases in point: the Navy’s recent series of collisions at sea, The number of senior officers releaved of command and/or driven out of the services after the Obama/Clinton Bengahzi debacles! It’s time to get back to promoting and assigning those officers and ncos capable of leading our troops and defeating the enemy! Screw political correctness, social engineering experiments and the ass-kissing cocktail groups currently

screwing up our military!!!

My Dear Friends, Hope all is well and you are having a nice summer. The fall season is just around the corner. I have embarked on a very important civic mission in defense of the USA and ask for your assistance. If you have kept up with developments of the past week you know the USA must rid itself of all vestiges of racism and intolerance. My civic mission is simple and if you follow the instructions below you will greatly assist me and our great country. 1. Get a shoebox size container. 2. Fill that with US Currency in denominations of $1/$2/$10/$20/$50/$100. The persons pictured on these bill are alleged slave owners and a threat to the existence of the USA. 3. Mail that on a monthly basis to me, I will dispose of the currency and I will reimburse you for postage.

PS: Pass this on to like minded Americans dedicated to a better America for all. Regards, JMM

Navy Sailor Refuses To Stand For National Anthem - IMMEDIATELY Regrets It. WRITTEN BY DAVID MILLER

It may work for the NFL but not for the Armed Forces. One way for people to learn discipline, since the Schools no longer have any, Actions=Consequences..... GOODBYE PETTY OFFICER 2ND CLASS JANAYE ERVIN! Article 92 of the UCMJ A former Navy intelligence specialist recently took a page out of Colin Kaepernick's playbook and refused to stand for the national anthem during morning colors. However, she quickly learned she'd made a huge mistake. Conservative Tribune reported that Petty Officer 2nd Class Janaye Ervin was stripped of her security clearance and assigned to menial labor for a few days before she was forced to leave the Navy for disrespecting our country so blatantly. It all started on September 19, when Ervin refused to stand for the anthem when she was on reserve duty at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Hawaii. The International Business Times reported that Ervin claimed she was trying to make a statement about blacks being persecuted in the United States by doing this. "I just didn't want to stand at that moment," Ervin said. "I can't stand for this song knowing that the song isn't for me, being black. The song doesn't represent me at all. To be honest, I never really thought about the flag my entire life, I had no reason to. It's just a flag." The next day, Ervin's superiors read her her rights and gave her a warning about potentially compromising her security clearance, which she needed for both her military and civilian job. One day after that, she was stripped of her security clearance and escorted out of the secure area where she was working. Ervin is now claiming that she was never told which order she was violating, but this is clearly a lie since she violated the 10th general order for sentries , ( To salute all officers and colors and standards not cased. ) which is taught in Navy boot camp. All members of the Navy are forced to memorize all 11 general orders in boot camp, and they are aware that violating any one of them is subject to Article 92 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and is subject to whatever punishment is decided by court-martial. On September 21, Ervin took to Facebook to publicly whine about how "unfair" this has been for her. "The Navy has decided to punish me for defending the Constitution and has taken away my equipment I need to do my Naval job," she wrote, according to PopularMilitary.com . Hey, Janaye, the Navy did not take ANYTHING from you - you forfeited your own job when you knowingly violated a general order. SHARE this story if you think she got what she deserved

NFL protesting the flag - POWERFUL! I will forward this and am fully in agreement with the letter below!

I don't think this could have been said any better and it definitely is about time someone said it. Hopefully, this will go out over EVERY computer in the U.S. and maybe, just maybe, these sports people will get the message of just how ridiculous they are to disrespect our flag, and how little what they do in sports compare to what our great military has done for this country.. NFL protesting the flag – POWERFUL! image Ret. Marine Col. Jeffery Powers wrote to the NFL commissioners the following: Commissioners, I've been a season pass holder at Yankee Stadium, Yale Bowl and the Giants Stadium. I missed the '90-'91 season because I was with a battalion of Marines in Desert Storm. 14 of my wonderful Marines returned home with the American Flag draped across their lifeless bodies. My last conversation with one of them, Sgt. Garrett Mongrella, was about how our Giants were going to the Super Bowl. He never got to see it. Many friends, Marines, and Special Forces Soldiers who worked with or for me through the years returned home with the American Flag draped over their coffins. Now I watch multi-millionaire athletes who never did anything in their lives but play a game, disrespect what brave Americans fought and died for. They are essentially spitting in the faces and on the graves of real men, men who have actually done something for this country beside playing with a ball and believing they're something special! They're not! My Marines and Soldiers were! You are complicit in this! You'll fine players for large and small infractions but you lack the moral courage and respect for our nation and the fallen to put an immediate stop to this. Yes, I know, it's their 1st Amendment right to behave in such a despicable manner. What would happen if they came out and disrespected you or the refs publicly? I observed a player getting a personal foul for twerking in the end zone after scoring. I guess that's much worse than disrespecting the flag and our National Anthem. Hmmmmm, isn't it his 1st Amendment right to express himself like an idiot in the end zone? Why is taunting not allowed yet taunting America is OK? You fine players for wearing 9-11 commemorative shoes yet you allow scum on the sidelines to sit, kneel or pump their pathetic fist in the air. They are so deprived with their multi-million dollar contracts for playing a freaking game! You condone it all by your refusal to act. You're just as bad and disgusting as they are. I hope Americans boycott any sponsor who supports that rabble you call the NFL. I hope they turn off the TV when any team that allowed this disrespect to occur, without consequence, on the sidelines. I applaud those who have not. Legends and heroes do NOT wear shoulder pads. They wear body armor and carry rifles. They make minimum wage and spend months and years away from their families. They don't do it for an hour on Sunday. They do it 24/7 often with lead, not footballs, coming in their direction. They watch their brothers carted off in pieces not on a gurney to get their knee iced They don't even have ice! Many don't have legs or arms. Some wear blue and risk their lives daily on the streets of America. They wear fire helmets and go upstairs into the fire rather than down to safety. On 9-11, hundreds vanished. They are the heroes. I hope that your high paid protesting pretty boys and you look in that mirror when you shave tomorrow and see what you really are, legends in your own minds. You need to hit the road and take those worms with you! Time to change the channel. Powers originally sent his letter to former Florida congressman Allen West. West then posted the letter to his news website. As of last week, at least 18 NFL player had protested the anthem by either kneeling during the anthem or raising their fists, according to USA Today Sports. If you agree with what he said please pass this on.

Liberalism (Libtardian) (Socialist) (Progressive) (Domestic Terrorist) = Democrat

EXCERPT FROM LETTER TO THE EDITOR IN WSJ:

The cause of the left’s disease isn’t that it took identity politics too far—that is just one symptom. The root cause is that the left has abandoned truth for power. The central teachings of the left (welfare cures poverty, only whites can be racist, capitalism is oppressive, gender is malleable, abortion is just a choice, unions help workers, trace levels of CO 2 control the climate) are false, no matter how often they are repeated. Progressive policies (socialized medicine, taxing the rich, alternative energy, centralized control over the economy) don’t work, no matter how often they are tried. I have no worry that I am tipping off the adversary. Liberals never admit that what they are doing is wrong, they just insist that they haven’t done enough of it yet. BRAD TUPI Pittsburgh

New American Civil War Pits Patriots Against The Radical Violent George Soros-Funded Progressive Left by Geoffrey Grider...

New post on Now The End Begins ANTIFA, the domestic terror group that claims to be "anti-fascist" in in fact highly fascist and aggressively violent. They have their beginnings in 2015, started on a Yale campus of all places in 2015, and have grown to be the Left's version of the KKK. Just like the KKK hates blacks, ANTIFA hates Jews. For 8 years, Barack Obama and the radical, George Soros-funded Left in this country did everything they could to enflame racial and political tensions. If you disagreed with Obama Marxist policies, it was because you secretly hated black people. If you complained that Michelle Obama was taking too many taxpayer-funded luxury vacations, it was because you secretly hated women and black people. The list was never ending and always arrived at the same place. Racial divisions. Then Black Lives Matter came along, and in 2016 people started dying. 5 officers were slain in Texas by shooter Micah Johnson with ties to Black Lives Matter. In the same year, in Sterling’s Baton Rouge, 125 people were arrested; an officer struck with a projectile lost several teeth. In Chicago, protesters broke through a police barricade, and multiple people were arrested on charges of battery against police. And in Castile’s St. Paul, Minn., more than 100 protesters were arrested when protesters used an overpass over Interstate 94 to throw rocks and rebar at police, injuring 21 officers, including one who suffered broken vertebrae when a concrete block was dropped on him from above. When one officer was injured, protesters cheered: “One piggly-wiggly down!” If police are even more fearful after all this, they would not be without reason. So where does Black Lives Matter get all the money to hire fleets of buses to bring in agitators from different states? George Soros, through his various shell companies and ghost organizations, funds all of it. ANTIFA in America, the domestic terror group that claims to be "anti-fascist" is in fact highly fascist and aggressively violent. They have their beginnings in 2015, started on a Yale campus of all places in 2015, and have grown to be the Left's version of the KKK. Just like the KKK hates blacks, ANTIFA hates Jews. This is the real face of ANTIFA, still think they are "anti-fascist"? antifa-flyer-charlottesville-fascists-heebs-domestic-terror-group HERE IS THE ANTIFA FLYER HANDED OUT AT CHARLOTTESVILLE RIOTS ADVOCATING FOR GOVERNMENT OVERTHROW OF "WHITE RACISTS AND HEEBS". WELCOME TO THE LEFT'S KKK. As you look at that flyer, and hopefully study it, what conclusion might you come to? If you are honest, you conclude that ANTIFA, funded by George Soros just like Black Lives Matter, is a domestic terror organization using fear, violence and intimidation to force their agenda down our throats. In short, they are the enemy of all freedom-loving, American patriots who desire to be governed by the rule of law. Now, black lawmakers who support ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter, are demanding that statues in our nation's capitol get taken down. “Confederate memorabilia have no place in this country and especially not in the United States Capitol. These images symbolize a time of racial discrimination and segregation that continues to haunt this country and many African-Americans who still to this day face racism and bigotry,” Thompson said in a statement to The Hill. “It is past time for action to remove all Confederate symbols in the U.S. Capitol and on the Mississippi state flag.” So I ask you, where will all this end? You know where it will end. If not checked soon, our current civil war will end exactly like our previous Civil War, with piles and piles of dead bodies. George Soros, the desperately old demon he is, is not running out of money anytime soon. And even when he dies, the criminal organizations he has put in place will last long after his rotting body vanishes into dust. President Trump is one of the only people in Washington to say it like it is, and because he speaks the truth in blaming both sides, he is lambasted night and day by the fake news media and the George Soros splinter groups. America stands right now at a pivotal crossroads, one from which there is no turning back. Leftist thugs cannot be allowed to tear down statues and rewrite the history of our nation. They are anarchists and must be treated as such. Over the last 100 years, we have seen Progressive uprisings in major nations like Russia, Germany and Italy just to name a few, and they always end badly. Russian Progressives created Stalin, German Progressives created Hitler, and Italian Progressives created Mussolini. The end game here in America is to topple our government and install European fascism, the exact same style fascism that groups like ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter claim to be against. Just remember, Hitler came preaching peace and prosperity. How'd that work out for the German people? The new Civil War is well underway so pick a side.

Trump nailed it again! Chaos, Created & Organized by obamites....

No Images? View Online What the President Said Is True, Whether You Like It Or Not Facebook Twitter The left is leaving no ground to compromise on this issue. They will leave no Confederate monument in the ground. And with no room to compromise I suspect they will not like it when very many Americans who may not care for the President wind up standing with him against the left. And the left can scream and cry bigotry all they want, but they will thankfully be shut out of power for another electoral cycle. American leftists have decided if you are not with them, you are evil and worth silencing. They will allow no alternative opinions and they will allow no dissent. They will not even allow people the courtesy of neutrality. So the average American will probably give them an electoral middle finger, deservedly so. Like it or not, the President made some fair and reasonable points in yesterday's press conference. That the media melted down over them says more about the press than the President and suggests the media will yet again misjudge the lay of the political landscape. Read More...

What has happened to Fox News? Why is it following the Left...?

The following was sent to Fox News from its contact place on its Website: What has happened to Fox News? Why is it following the Left in its characterization of the Charlottesville protests? Is straight news reporting finally slipping away from Fox News, as it has in most of the rest of the former media? I have heard reporting and comments on a number of programs, all condemning the White Supremacy group as terrorist group. Oh, everyone is up in arms. Even the commentators usually relied up as blasting away. But I have heard no reports or comments condemning the Opposition Group as a terrorist group. What is the Opposition Group? Who named it? Why is it not called by its real name, as the White group is called? Isn't it made up of Black Lives Matter, that so respected group? Is it not made up of other groups that have been rioting on college campuses and in the streets? Are those groups not terroristic? Are they not racist? I am not in favor of the White Supremacy group. If you erase it, that would be fine. But we have gone for many months and even years of protest from various groups on the Left and they have not been reported or commented on as terrorist groups. The White Supremacy group had permission to hold a gathering. The Left groups have never had permission to hold gatherings or protests. They just appear, hurt people, stop people from their business and burn and otherwise damage private and public buildings and property. If the Left group, as always paid, had not appeared in Charlottesville, there would have been no deaths, injuries or destruction. All of the blame cannot go to one side. So why not erase it, too? As to the spineless Republicans and other government and congressional officials and those talking asses on television programs who criticize President Donald Trump for his statement, they should be smarter, more fair and even loyal. For instance, they should respect the president for not indulging in what Barack Obama indulged in many, many times: convicting people before even a few of the facts were learned. How soon we forget. A Fox reporter even went so far as to cast doubt on the statement of the mother of the arrested driver of the car that plowed into the crowd. He said she had been interviewed by The Associated Press — that certainly unbiased news agency — and told reporters that she didn't know of the son's intentions. He said she may know more than she was admitting. And to what seer do we attribute that bit of speculation? Black Lives Matter and other Soros groups should be called out as terrorist groups and arrested in huge numbers the moment they move from free speech on sidewalks to the rioting in the streets. Then reporting would be more balanced and more acceptable. I would like for Fox to run an investigation, report how many rioting situations have gone on in the nation since the election or the first of the year or the inauguration. Estimate how much damage has been done, how many people have been injured and killed. That would be some reporting that the people of this nation could understand. Charles Rondinelli
