The two-tier justice system is alive and well.


I am sure that you are aware of the hoax perpetrated by Jussie Smollett, but I will give you a quick overview of it just in case. Jussie Smollett is an actor who is overpaid, self-centered, and greedy. He is also apparently a friend of the Obama’s. He decided that the hundreds of thousands of dollars he was being paid yearly is insufficient compensation for someone of his talent. (His opinion, not mine.) So he arranged to have a couple of men conduct a fake attack on him, and he filed a false police report attesting that they yelled racial slurs at him during the attack. In addition, he claimed that they identified themselves as Trump supporters. So the fake attack was intended to cast him as a poor victim, and also incite hatred for Trump supporters. He intended to use his new-found “victim status” to enhance his efforts to increase his already over-inflated salary. The Chicago police were able to establish very strong evidence of his criminal hoax and instead of supporting his hoax, they filed criminal charges against Smollett. What Smollett did is a disgusting, grossly self-serving attempt to obtain more money to fulfill his overwhelming greed. However, it gets worse.

            As I noted above, Smollett is a friend of the Obama’s, and the criminal charges were filed with the state attorney, who is a staunch democrat who apparently believes completely in the two-tier justice system. Let me describe the two-tier justice system. This is a system initiated by, supported by, and enforced by high ranking democrat leaders to ensure that anyone who has high-level political connections to democrat leaders will be protected from prosecution for criminal behavior. I also believe that it is not incidental that Smollett and the state attorney are both black activists. To continue with the story, when the charges were filed with the state attorney, there was an alleged phone call from the Obama’s to inform the state attorney that Smollett is a friend of the Obama’s. She then promptly proceeded to not only drop all the charges against him, but she also tried to have the whole thing expunged from his record. The most obscene point of all of this is that now Smollett is trying to sue the Chicago police department. If it is left up to the democratic leaders and the corrupt state attorney, Smollett will not only skate out of the criminal charges, but the Police department will be punished for daring to actually enforce the law. Disgusting!!

Hate should be condemned


There has been a number of articles written about Congresswoman Ilhan Abdullahi Omar from Minnesota in the last few weeks. Very few of the articles have been complimentary, and I can understand why!. It is shameful that we have a member of congress that is so blatantly hateful toward the Jewish people. The democratic leaders have either fallen all over themselves to excuse Omar’s exhibition of her hatred, or they have been totally silent regarding her demonstrated hatred. Pelosi even made a feeble attempt to defend Omar by claiming that she did not understand the hateful impact of her words. Hogwash!!! Any person with a brain can clearly see Omar’s hatred, and arguing about how much hatred constitutes anti-Semitism is idiotic.

          In addition, Omar’s flagrant use of her power as a member of Congress to attack people that she hates is despicable. It is embarrassing to see a member of our congress acting like a third-world dictator by using her power in a vendetta against a whole group of people. The democrats apparently believe that since Omar is a black Muslim female immigrant she should be able to express racial hatred, religious hatred, or any other hateful feelings without recrimination. Hogwash!!!!!

          The House democrats should censure Omar for her hateful actions, and she should have to publically apologize for her boorish conduct before there is any relief from the censorship. But don’t hold your breath waiting for any action from the democrat leadership. If you aren’t aware, Omar is simply expressing one of the hateful attitudes endorsed by the majority of the democrat leadership. For examples, just look at Ellison, Farrakhan, Black lives matter, Antifa, and hate anything Trump. The common denominator is HATRED!!

Identifying some RINOS


Many years ago Congress passed the law giving the President the power to declare emergencies and then to provide money to handle the declared emergency. This is a lawful use of power delegated to the President which is completely within the constitution, and which has been used dozens of times by multiple Presidents since the law was passed by Congress. President Trump’s declaration of an emergency is fully within the scope of the law and is fully constitutional in exactly the same regards as the dozens of emergency declarations by previous presidents were. Anyone attempting to state that President Trump is exceeding his authority is simply ignorant or plain stupid.

            In addition, the law does not require or imply that congressional approval of the declaration of an emergency is required. It expressly gives the President the right to determine if there is an emergency, and the right to act unilaterally to handle the emergency. Nowhere in the law does it states that the congress has reserved the right to override the President in this process. To restate the obvious, it is the unfettered right of the President to determine if there is an emergency, and it is plainly stated that he has the right to provide funds to handle the declared emergency.

            It is also plain that congress may, at their discretion, withhold this power by passing a new law, but it is also plainly obvious that the President may veto the bill. However, it is absurd for anyone member of congress to attempt to justify voting to stop the President by claiming that he does not have the power to declare the emergency. CONGRESS HAS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED THAT POWER. It is also stupid to claim that the President does not have the SOLE DISCRETION to declare the emergency. CONGRESS HAS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED THAT POWER. Having said that, the only reason that a member of Congress can vote to stop the declaration of an emergency is because he/she simply does not want to address the existing emergency. In other words, the member does not care about solving the problem.

            In my opinion, the only reason for anyone to oppose the declaration of an emergency is because they hate President Trump and will oppose him in everything regardless of the consequences. Therefore, I can only conclude that the Republican house members who voted against the emergency declaration did so out of a hateful opposition to President Trump. If you support President Trump, and especially if you want the crisis at the border corrected, I assume that you do not support any republican house member opposed to the declaration of an emergency. The 13 Republicans who joined the Democrats in rebuking the emergency declaration were Reps. Justin Amash and Fred Upton of Michigan, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Mike Gallagher and Jim Sensenbrenner of Wisconsin, Jaime Herrera Beutler and Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington, Will Hurd of Texas, Dusty Johnson of South Dakota, Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Francis Rooney of Florida, Elise Stefanik of New York, and Greg Walden of Oregon. If you want the crisis at the border dealt with, then I cannot see any way that you can support these Republicans for re-election, and I certainly oppose their re-election. Maybe they can run as a Democrat.
