Republicans will take Obama care from all except themselves,families,and staff

Republicans are set to get Obama care stripped from Americans. They are cruel and have no heart. Each member of congress gets Congressional perks that most Americans can not afford. They now have set into play an action to add to it. Obama care will be stripped from most Americans if President Trump and his acolytes get their way. Obama care stays for members, their family, and all staff with their families. "Americans and their families will be left by the side of the road. Why? President Trump and his acolytes do not care for any one but themselves.  Voters are only necessary every four years."  Trump care is immoral because it makes people suffer. Congress and their families plus staff do not suffer. They will keep Obama care. Please read the links below especially the first link. Read the last link about Congressional perks. I could have filled three pages on links of this kind. I picked one. Google congressional perks and choose. If this is too old, do what I did. Google again for 2016 and 2017 results. If it makes you mad, tell Trump and other Republican acolytes about it.

Today was the day President Trump was required to show proof of wiretapping

Today was the day that President Donald Trump was required to present proof about his claim of wiretapping. Sean Spicer came out with what the President really meant. "He was talking about general surveillance." Just last week Mr. Spicer said the tweets "speak for them self." He stated wiretapping was not what the president meant. Kellyanne Conway made a spectacle of herself by stating Trumps microwave took pictures. It's time if Mr. Trump wants to be taken seriously to change himself. One is to own up to what he has said. Two involves change on what he does. Three needs to have Trump and his staff hold them self to higher standards.

Trump claims phone at Trump Towers wire tapped by Obama

It is extremely wrong what President Donald Trump is up to. His people are getting into trouble and being looked at close for not being forth coming about talking to Russian  Ambassador Sergey I. Kisylyak.  Trump took this early morning to stir "Poop" on twitter. He claimed without any proof that the previous President Barack Obama had wire tapped his phones at Trump Towers. He is trying to blow smoke off his fire onto somebody else. The problem is that it is not true. This behavior is what I would expect out of young grade school children. Our President must meet higher standards.

President Trump seems to lack knowledge of what a President can or can not do. There is a system of checks and balances in place. See the links below. A President can not order a wire tap on an U.S. citizen. It must go through a series of legal steps. These were not started on Donald Trump. President Trump made a series of false statements about Barack Obama without proof. For the average citizen, they would be in legal trouble.

A.G. Jeff Sessions recuses self from investigation into Trump's campaign

Attorney General Jeff Sessions  recuses himself from President Trump's campaign investigation. He failed to let his confirmation hearing know he  had two pre-election meetings with the Russian ambassador Sergey I. Kisylyak. He later stated that he could not remember if he discussed anything with the Ambassador about Trump or the election. See the last link it refers to Russian Ambassador attending Trump's Congressional speech.

It seems that members of President Trump's entourage still has one major problem. It is called "Alternative Truth." In case his people never learned at their parent's knee, they need to learn one thing now. Truth is unchanging. It is neither pretty or ugly. Simply put, "It is what it is." When it is changed to look or sound different, it is something different. It is now a lie. the only alternative to the truth is a lie.

Trumps Muslim ban makes terrorists happy

Steve Bannon is a President Trump advisor and white nationalist. He declared the media to be the enemy. His bigoted remark about the war being with Muslims got him front page status on one of Al Qaedas newspapers - Al Masra. See the first link for his debut.

Daesh / Daw'aish and Al Qaeda are pleased as punch that what they said about the United States being at war with Islam is made true by President Donald Trump. This is what other Islamic terrorist organizations are happy about also. Two previous Presidents worked hard to let Muslims know they were welcome and had certain rights. President Trump destroyed that in one day.  Daesh / Daw'aish and other terrorist organizations are using Trump's bigotry against him. It has been posited that killing more in a cruel manner will cause more reaction from Trump. This will be used to recruit more Jihadists because America has declared itself at war with Islam.

It seems that our way has been lost. Immigrants from various countries were dumped here.. Different backgrounds and cultures came together and forged this country till we were one. Now bigotry and small minds are putting our country at risk. We need to remember who we were in order in order to maintain who we are.

It's legal to abuse women in Russia.

It's hard to read about any country sliding back into a culture that promotes violence. Vladimir Putin is not helping the image of his country. No longer is it a crime to abuse women. Domestic Violence has been partially decriminalized. There are no guidelines for this. I guess as long as the woman is not in danger of dying, the police will look the other way. According to the link, "Women are told to be proud of their bruises. It means their husband loves them."One sick reason given for the abuse is that it will help women to give birth to boys.

The scary thing is what our President Donald Trump says about Vladimir Putin. He admires the man. I know God has said we must pray for our leaders. Been doing that since he slipped into office. Most afraid that God is letting him stay the way he is to teach us a lesson.

President Trump, justification is an alternative truth cover-up for new Muslim Ban

The Department of Homeland Security working with the Justice Department is busy trying to build a case to back up Trump's travel ban.  These agencies are trying to find evidence that these seven countries are a substantial threat to the security of the United States. They have expanded the definition of threat to make their job easier to explain.

Dudes seeking a pretty policy to cover up a wrong is not even worthy enough to be called "Grade School" pedantic. Doing work to make a policy after damage is done is not worthy of anyone elected to serve the people of this "Great country." They should cover their behinds and / or their bosses on their own time not while working for the United States.

President Trump to try new approach to Muslim Travel Bam

President Donald Trump has delayed the release of his updated Muslim Travel Ban. The original ban was stopped by an United States Court of  Appeal. It was unconstitutional because it discriminated against those who were Muslim. No pretty words could change that. It affected all who had visa's and those who not started the visa process. This ban also affected those with "Green Cards"or legal permanent residence.  His attempt to change and stream line his ban might or might not help him. Only he knows what his ultimate goal is. Trust when lost is hard and often impossible to regain.

I've heard arguments on both sides of the fence for and against the Muslim travel ban.  This reminds me of the lesson that I gave my son on lies hidden under pretty words. I took him to a park that had a large population of ducks from domestic to wild. We sat on a park bench describing the birds we saw without using the word "Duck."After about 30 minutes, my son looked at me and asked if we could play another game. He stated that the words we used  did not change the fact that all the birds in front of us were ducks. I smiled and told him that he had learned a lesson that many adults had not learned.
Pretty words can not change the truth.
