The law stipulated that anyone who held “any other person in involuntary confinement or to any involuntary service” shold be “deemed guilty of a felony and pay a fine uf up to $5,000 dollars.

While having racial debates and racial reconciliation discussions with Democrats today are almost impossible due to ignorance of the facts, most of the progressives and democrats today do not know that the hold membership in a historical confederate organization which caused slavery, the KKK and Jim Crow is a real ethical and “human rights’ problem.  Even today, nobody is sure how anyone in good conscience can pay dues and remain a member of a historically confederate group which was responsible for the: death, enslavement, terrorism and rape upon so many poor citizens of the United States.

 

In sum, many today are protesting that democrat party should be disbanded by the government for being complicit in the crimes of slavery, terrorism, hate monuments, war crimes, and the loss of 500 thousand young Christian boys killed in the Civil War, and other human rights crimes.

President Trump’s biggest accomplishments of 2019!

 
FROM The White House • December 30, 2019

TOP 10: President Trump’s biggest accomplishments of 2019!

Americans saw plenty of Washington at its worst this year, with one party in Congress obsessed with a partisan impeachment stunt and obstructing progress at every turn. But despite getting no help from the far left, America today is soaring to new heights.

It’s tough to pick only 10 accomplishments from such an extraordinary year, but here are just a few of the biggest things President Donald J. Trump has gotten done for the American people in 2019:

  1. The Trump Boom is going strong. The unemployment rate recently hit its lowest mark in 50 years. All told, since President Trump’s election, our economy has added more than 7 million jobs—over half a million in manufacturing alone.
  2. The stock market keeps breaking records: The Dow Jones and S&P 500 hit record closes again on Friday. 
  3. The working class is thriving, as are previously forgotten communities. Wages are now rising the fastest for low-income workers, and poverty rates for African Americans and Hispanic Americans have reached all-time lows.
  4. Accountable government is back. Since taking office, President Trump has rolled back nearly 8 regulations for every new one, saving American taxpayers more than $50 billion in the process—with bigger savings still to come.
  5. Better trade deals are putting America back in the driver’s seat. Congress approved President Trump’s USMCA this month—a huge win for U.S. workers, farmers, and manufacturers that will create 176,000 new jobs.
  6. Trade with China in particular is about to get a whole lot fairer. As part of a historic “phase 1” deal, Beijing has agreed to structural reforms in its trade practices and to make substantial purchases of American agricultural products.
  7. Securing the border is paying off and making our country safer. President Trump struck new agreements with Mexico and Central American countries this year to help stop the flood of illegal immigration. Thanks to this swift action, border apprehensions fell by more than 70 percent from May to November.
  8. On health care, President Trump is fighting to give our patients the best system on Earth. While Democrats try to take away choice, the President’s focus on affordability led to the largest year-over-year drop in drug prices ever recorded.
  9. American interests are taking center stage abroad. In just one example: After years of not paying their fair share, NATO Allies will have increased defense spending by $130 billion by the end of next year.
  10. Our great military took out the world’s top terrorist in October. (Meet Conan, the hero dog who helped them do it!) Our troops are now getting the support they deserve. President Trump recently signed the National Defense Authorization Act for the 2020 fiscal year, which includes the biggest pay raise for our military in a decade.

On behalf of President Trump and his entire Administration, have a blessed and wonderful New Year!

WATCH: “Our best days are yet to come!”

It’s Peace and Prosperity Stupid ™ – 3/4ths of American voters approve of the economy under President Trump. In a CNN poll this week, 76% say the economy is very good or “just plain” good. A stunning 60% of large and small business owners in a CNBC Poll say they approve of President Trump’s Job Performance which is an “All Time High.” – Trump’s Kitchen Table Talking Points for the New Year

Ten Reasons that 3/4ths of American voters approve of the economy under President Trump. In a CNN poll this week, 76% say the economy is very good or “just plain” good.
A stunning 60% of large and small business owners in a CNBC Poll say they approve of President Trump’s Job Performance which is an “All Time High.”
1. A whopping 7 Million new jobs. By cutting Obama’s new taxes on small businesses, the economy has grown organically for the first time in 30 years. While Obama fought to bring back jobs lost while in his 1st year as president, Obama created trillions of new debt just to temporarily hire back a few of the 5 million workers who had been laid off in 2009. In contrast, President Trump has created “new jobs” and the best economy in 50 years in just 3 years.
2. No Wasteful Wars – Real Foreign Policy and Real Diplomacy. Obama got us into new wars in Syria, Libya, and Yemen and more. During Obama, diplomats and Ambassadors were assassinated and one of our nations consulates was invaded and blown up.
3. Hispanic, Asian, and All Minority Employment has hit all time records. All minorities have finally benefited under a president. Overall unemployment has fallen from 4.8 percent to an unimaginable 50 year low of 3.5% percent. In a recent CNBC Poll, 85% of workers happy with their jobs under Trump which is nothing short of amazing.
4. Fair Trade – USA is forcing other nations to play fair. Not a single beaurocrat supported the renegotiation of NAFTA, NATO or TPP. The USA has entered a new paradigm of diplomacy where our diplomats are negotiating fiercely for worker families to prevent bad deals. Withdrawing from bad deals of the past which has hurt working families and killed jobs on the East and West Coast for a generation.
5. Fair Taxes on small business and corporations which hire people. Rather than the worst in the world, the Trump Tax Reform has made the USA the most competitive place to do business. The new small business deductions and larger standard deductions have increased worker paychecks and spending on main street. Under Obama in 2016, the USA business taxes were ranked the worst in the world.
6. Strong Stock Markets Under Trump Help over 50% of all working families with a Better Retirement. Trump’s economic strategy has helped create 10 trillion in new wealth for our nation. In contrast, the NASDAQ was at the same in 2016 under Obama as it was during Clinton 17 years before. A study by the Federal Reserve Board found that in 2016, 51.9 percent of families owned stocks, either directly or as part of a fund.
7. Fair Immigration – We have plenty of elderly, orphans, widows, and needy located in the USA. As an international lawyer who has studied immigration law and trade, we must make it fair again for our citizens and relatives abroad. Lastly, there are over 50 American Nations and territories in our American hemisphere. Thus, there needs to be a conscious innovation of immigration laws for every country. Talk to any immigration lawyer and they may tell you that the laws for H1B, Asylum and Refugees have been outdated and were written before Obama even attend law school.
8. Reduction in Crime, Drug Death, and Riots – While inner city crime is still a problem in big city controlled strongholds such as Detroit and Chicago, crime has gone down 5% less under Trump which is massive. We had the first reduction in Drug Death under President Trump as opioid death went down 2.8 percent from 2017 to 2018. While Obama was in office, about 500,000 died from opioid related death with the number going up each year under Obama, but that number is finally going down under Trump’s border control strategy and other common sense “law and order” policies. There have been 1 million parents or children who lost a child or parent under Obama, and these voters may be inclined to support a leader who cares about and invests into combating the issue.
9. Affordable Education – Education Costs Coming Down With More Skills Courses Available – With new initiatives from the White House, new online programs are being expanded to support those who want affordable education. From Coursera to EdX to Google and others, new online programs supported by the Trump Administration are now available to working parents, the disabled, elderly and those in rural areas. Some courses and degree programs are at little or no cost. Higher education will have many changes in the near future as more options are available.
10. Cost of Debt Went Down for Families Thanks to President Trump. – President Trump is the first president in history to lobby the Federal Reserve to reduce the interest rates on mortgages, credit cards, and auto loans. Trump is the first president to comprehend that raising interest rates on working families kills the ability for working moms and dads to pay bills or save money. The Federal Reserve’s new higher rates in 2017-18 hit hardest the people living from paycheck to paycheck, and President Trump was able to “wake up” the Fed to the “disposable income” realities of working folks outside of DC and New York.
In the end, if you know somebody who dislikes President Trump and loved Obama and Clinton, that is common because the New York media told the American people that Trump only had a 7% chance of winning. Today, millions of people are truly sad with the performance failures of the Obama Presidency. Some are also having trouble recovering from the failures of the Clinton’s various runs for president. Obama had a rough time coming back from the Federal Reserve rates of over 5% in 2007 which wiped out the economy for Bush and Obama. Obama spent almost all of his presidency trying to get the 5 million jobs back that were lost in his 1st year in office, but Obama’s tax and regulatory framework were too punitive for workers and small businesses which kept wages and growth at a standstill.
It is fundamentally amazing that a reduction in: taxes, red tape, war, and waste could create such a vibrant economy under President Trump and Leader McConnell. The rest of the world is looking at the USA like they did during the Reagan years, and we are all grateful for this moment in time of: “Peace and Prosperity.”

President Trump & Louisiana’s Governor Jon Bel Edwards – The DINO Issue

President Trump &  Louisiana’s Governor Jon Bel Edwards

The DINO Issue

Growing up in Louisiana, there were terms  known as “Conservative Democrat” or Blue Dog Democrat. Having been raised in the same general neighborhood as Britney Spears’ parents and the family of Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards, we all knew what it meant to be fiscally conservative and we knew how to care for our environment to protect hunting, fishing, farming, and tree cropping.

Governor Edwards won re-election this weekend. Did I think he would win? Yes, and it had nothing to do with President Trump. As a matter of fact, the overwhelming winners statewide  in Louisiana were republicans in recent elections where one statewide Republican candidate beat the Democrat by 250,000 votes 59%-41%

In the end, John Bel Edwards only needed a fraction of the Republican or Blue Dog vote to win 51-49%.  Because of Governor Edwards’ credentials from the military and other right of center issues such as being pro-life, he is a natural candidate for traditional & centrist Louisiana voters.  Thus, anyone saying that Trump helped Edwards get elected is a political buffoon if they see the facts.

So, what is the moral of the story?  Do I think that Democrats will begin running “pro-life” veterans in all of the states to capture power in the elections? The answer is no because to win the nomination and the primary, the candidates need to appease the 33%+ hard core leftist voters who have some fairly extreme litmus tests to follow.  Today however, Governor Edwards is being labeled a DINO Democrat in Name Only.  Honestly, that is not a bad label to get these days.

In the case of Gov. John Bel Edwards, he only needed 4-6% of the Blue Dog or Republican vote to take the statewide election. However, the sad news is that when governors like Edwards win, the spoils tend to go almost exclusively to the democrat party loyalists where the vast majority of entrepreneurs, small business and working folks who are not registered Democrats are cut out.

This weekend, I spoke to an UBER driver in New Orleans at length, and she said that the democrats were primarily unified on one issue which was Medicaid expansion.  Medicaid expansion was not the original intent Obamacare. Thus, Obama crashed the free Louisiana Health Care System for the most needy, and now, Medicaid expansion is the only way to keep the least fortunate covered. Medicaid pays for health care for more than 74.5 million people nationally. Although participation is optional, all 50 states participate in the Medicaid program.  As crazy as that sounds, Medicaid may be the only issue that holds the democrats together that they can all agree upon particularly when a DINO is running for office.

The moral of the story is that any progressive or  conservative can win an election if they support family & business, support the military &  teachers, keep taxes fair, support law & order, and support health care for the most needy.

Harvard finds majority of voters in USA against immigration.

A recent Harvard-Harris poll found that 76% of registered American voters do not believe the United States should have “open borders,” and 61% said current U.S. border security is “inadequate.”

Powerline says that Immigration is a BIG loser for Democrats.

https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2018/07/immigration-a-loser-for-the-democrats.php

CBS poll released in June showed that most Americans  want illegal alien families either detained or deported all together. Also, that same poll shows that a Majority of 51% of Americans want a wall along the United States southern border.

Top Ten Failures of Barack Obama – 10 Biggest Failures Fiscal/Debt Breakdown, Tax Bondage for Workers, Failed Conflicts/Wars, Violence/Crime, Health Care Disaster, Drug Infestation, Education Debacle, Border Security Collapse, Job Crash and Record-U6-Unemployment, Incompetent Leadership for not Unifying the Country

Top Ten Failures of Barack Obama & His Administration – 10 Biggest Failures
Fiscal/Debt Breakdown, Tax Bondage for Workers, Failed Conflicts/Wars, Violence/Crime, Health Care Disaster, Drug Infestation, Education Debacle, Border Security Collapse, Job Crash and Record-U6-Unemployment, Incompetent Leadership for not Unifying the Country.

1) Fiscal Sustainability Failure – National Debt to 20 Trillion – Ten Trillion spent in the last 8 years. This is 10 Trillion : 10,000,000,000,000,000,000 (the new debt since 2009) PS. The money was not used for infrastructure, roads, bridges, or schools.
* Ten trillion divided by 124.6 million US Families = $80,256 Dollars Per Family. You could have had: A small home, a car, clothes, TV, new phone, paid off debts, and a few vacations, seasons tickets every year, & a fresh brewed Latte every morning. Obama and his team single handedly created an unsustainable structure of government paying political appointees and civil servants 3-5 times what an American worker makes. Obama’s government was giving to cronies: 250 thousand dollars per year salaries, plus pensions and health care while the rest of the country can barely send their kids to a safe school or college.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2015/01/07/the-story-behind-obama-and-the-national-debt-in-7-charts/?utm_term=.c9f25ebe02aa

https://www.thebalance.com/national-debt-under-obama-3306293 On January 20, 2009, when he was sworn in, the debt was $10.626 trillion. On January 20, 2017, it was $19.947 trillion. That’s why most people say Obama added $9 trillion to the debt, more than any other president.

2) “The Failed War President” – USA Wars, Good-will, and Arabia – Obama is the 1st president in the USA to be at war for ALL 8 year of his service. Clinton and Obama messed up Foreign Relations and the US leaders created more wars and increased our globally enemies in places such as: Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Egypt, Palestine, Oman, Yemen, Philippines, China, Russia, and Iraq.

http://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2017/01/18/510447582/after-8-years-of-unbroken-war-obama-hands-over-conflicts-to-trump

3) “Tax and Spend” Failure – Worker Rights, Tax Bondage, & Bargaining – Taxes were raised by more than 20% upon the middle class by Mr. Obama including new taxes on the hardest working women, children, and men in this country. Higher taxes, fees and fines for “hard work”is abuse & economic bondage which does not allow the working class to rise up to new wealth. The ACA-Obamacare “Grinch” penalty taxes effectively robs the working poor of their disposable income for the year end and holidays, to buy gifts for family. http://www.atr.org/full-list-ACA-tax-hikes-a6996 & http://humanevents.com/2015/01/30/obama-loads-taxes-on-the-middle-class-again/

4) Health Care Failure – A Signature Failure – Costs doubled and tripled for many working families while deductibles skyrocketed 300% which destabilized the health care system. The extreme deductibles fundamentally destroyed the usability of the insurance policies for families and children for basic sickness and medicines. http://www.cnbc.com/2016/10/26/obamacare-deductibles-are-on-the-rise-for-2017-along-with-monthly-premiums.html

5) Crime and Hard Drugs – The Lost Generation – Violent crime and rape in the USA skyrocketed under Obama in recent years . The only reason that the Murder rates were not through the roof was that: cell phones and “life saving” EMT techniques prevent many gunshot deaths in the street, and most of the victims of a “knife wound” or “gun shot” can make it into the hospital before death. http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/25/politics/violent-crime-report-us-cities-homicides-rapes/

Streets and Workplace Safety – Again violence and crime against women and police were on the rise for the last 8 years. http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/25/politics/violent-crime-report-us-cities-homicides-rapes/

6) School Failures – Education is this country declined for 8 years straight under Obama. Schools became less safe. According to the latest results from the National Assessment of Educational Progress, often called “the nation’s report card,” academic achievement generally declined under Obama’s watch.

7) Domestic and Global Terrorism – Obama failed to stop various attacks in Boston, California, Florida and many other US cities. US and foreign cities were hit by bombs, automatic weapons, or using trucks to run over families and children. http://www.johnstonsarchive.net/terrorism/wrjp255a.html & http://nypost.com/2016/06/16/america-has-suffered-a-terror-attack-every-year-under-obama/

8) Border Failure and Immigration – Criminal immigration, un-checked asylum, un-checked refugee and other unskilled immigrants allowed into the USA without review created decreased wages and increased crime across the USA depriving women and minorities of jobs. http://www.nationalreview.com/article/382338/black-americans-true-casualties-amnesty-j-delgado

9) Employment Failure and GDP Growth – 8 Years of Failure – 95 Million do not have jobs. Labor force participation rate lowest point since 1977. 13 Million MORE people on Medicaid and 11 Million MORE people on food stamps since Obama took office. http://freebeacon.com/issues/entitlement-programs-gained-tens-thousands-beneficiaries-obama-administration/ The percentage of 18-34 year olds living with parents or family hit a 70 year high. http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article57681.html Social Security Disability increased by 5 million under Obama http://www.independentsentinel.com/social-security-disability-increased-by-5-4-million-under-obama/
** Obama is 1st president not to achieve a single year of 3% GDP growth http://money.cnn.com/2016/07/28/news/economy/obama-clinton-economy/

10) Leadership Failure – Worst Leadership & Approval Stats – 71% of Americans dislike the USA leadership direction during the Obama Years. Lowest approval of any exiting president in recent times. Obama was elected by the people with millions of “Eurasian-American Peoples Votes” to bring this country together, but after elected he used ethnic divisiveness as a political tool, refused to cooperate with the other leaders, and did NOTHING to heal this nation. http://www.politico.com/story/2015/08/qpoll-issues-213177 Could not and failed to unite Americans who voted for him to help reduce the divisiveness of the country.

The Final Report Card on Obama – Grade D- or Fail depending on how much you like him.
