Political correctness continues to run amok, with the latest stampede to run from guns!


For far too long corporations have caved to the misguided demands of the left with no regard to their conservative customers or suppliers. They are allowed to behave in this manner because they receive little, if any, push back from the right. Thankfully this is changing and those who think Donald Trump has nothing to do with it are amazingly naive.

It’s been reported that Dicks Sporting Goods has hired a team of DC Lobbyists to pressure Congress into more gun control. As is usually the case ‘feel good’ gun control proposals will only affect law abiding gun owners. In response to Dicks action gun manufacturers Springfield Armory, MKS Supplies and Mossberg have announced they will no longer do business with Dicks Sporting Goods. The gun industry is one of countless industries whose constitutional rights are under attack. When possible let’s make these gutless decision makers pay a price.

Trump making, Make America Great Again


For those paying attention to the important issues affecting the security and freedom of all Americans it was a very good week. From the floor of the National Rifle Association’s annual meetings we heard the President reaffirm his commitment to protect and preserve the Second  Amendment to the Constitution. The right of law abiding citizens to protect themselves and their families is secure for now. We must never
forget that the progressive left won’t rest until gun confiscation begins.

The day after this important speech the President, while visiting Cleveland, met with a group of small business owners and their employees. The President delivered a speech proudly describing a roaring economy that will only get stronger. Thanks to the Trump tax cuts businesses are growing and new jobs are being added in big numbers. The unemployment rate is at a 17 year low with African American and Hispanic unemployment rates at all time lows. And best of all more of the American workers’ money is going where it belongs – in their pockets.

Donald Trump is delivering on the promises that got him elected, but there’s much left to do. He needs to secure the border and he needs to
build the wall to do it. He needs to continue filling the judicial system with freedom loving jurists who understand the rule of law while following the Constitution of the United States. He needs to defund the country’s largest provider of abortions – Planned Parenthood. He needs to help develop a free market healthcare system and completely repeal the big government power grab known as Obamacare.

We live in the greatest nation in the world. Ours is a resilient Republic that has withstood 8 years of the most divisive presidency in modern history. In November we must show up and elect those who will help President Trump ‘Make America Great Again.’

These groups: ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC are now the Propaganda Arm of the DNC


ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, NPR – take your pick, they’re all corrupt and their common mission is the take down of President Donald Trump. Just when we thought these gutless cowards had gone as low as they could CNN found a way to get even deeper into the swamp scum.

Fresh off the Parkland, FL massacre CNN organized an event they advertised as a “Town Hall Meeting.” They invited grieving students, their parents and teachers with only a couple of requirements: stick to our script and shout down the opposition as often as possible. This is the same tactic being employed on college campuses across the nation to shut down conservative voices.

The left’s shameful exploitation of our youth, and the complete politicization of this horrific assault was predictable and expected. Democrats, and the media, have no interest in pursuing ideas that could limit these mass shootings unless the blame is put squarely on guns, Donald Trump and the NRA.

The agenda of the left is to abolish the Second Amendment and begin gun confiscation – nothing less will be acceptable. If new legislation doesn’t move the narrative in that direction they have no interest in pursuing it. This political strategy will prevent any meaningful legislation from ever becoming enacted and the slaughter will continue.
The left understands this and will continue to use it as a political wedge issue for reelection.

SOTU — MAGA


President Trump’s State of the Union address has successfully turned a mirror on the Democratic Party. They appeared confused and angry as the president listed his first year accomplishments. In addition to a roaring economy he reaffirmed his pledge to secure our borders while showing a willingness to compromise on the illegal immigrants known as “Dreamers.”

The Democrats’ disdain was on display as the president honored our veterans, showed pride in our flag and paid tribute to our national anthem. They refused to stand for the families whose children were murdered by the savage M-13 gang. They even refused to honor a 12 year old boy whose mission it was to place flags on the graves of veterans on Veterans Day. The Congressional Black Caucus wouldn’t even acknowledge the lowest in history unemployment rate for African Americans.

For eight years America survived a president who stood proudly over the demise of our republic. We were told the rotting of our nation’s foundation was the new norm and the Democrats were the right party to manage this decline. Freedom loving Americans rejected this lie and did something about it.

Donald Trump was elected to “Make America Great Again” and as his speech suggested, he’s just getting started. Democrats fear a successful Trump presidency and their behavior at the SOTU address helps prove that. What Democrats understand, and what will become apparent to the American people, is that resistance is all they have to run on.

Hillary, Barack and Uranium One


Americans paying attention have known about the Clinton, Russia uranium deal for quite some time. Those who get their news from the main stream media are most likely clueless. Check out Judge Jeanine Pirro as she lays out the facts surrounding the Obama administrations, and more specifically, the Clinton crime families involvement.

At long last the House Oversight committee is beginning a probe into this massive security breach. God willing the day will come when the chant “lock her up” will become a reality. Perhaps the sexual predator she’s married to can arrange an adjoining cell.

Time to change the channel


Last year the NFL lost millions of viewers because of the shameful behavior of Colin Kaepernick and the feckless response from the NFL. I was one of those viewers. Based on preseason games it appears there are others ready to take the place of the, up to now, unemployed  Kaepernick and his disrespect for our flag.

This powerful email was around last year and is equally relevant this year. The anti-American left is very effective when boycotting corporations and the advertisers that go against their leftist agenda. It’s past time freedom loving Americans do the same to the cowards, like the NFL, that do little to protect our constitution and the freedom it offers. Does Kaepernick have the right to shame himself and his employer on national television – of course he does. Does the NFL have the right to prevent their employee from doing so – of course they do. The NFL is dead to me – I have changed the channel.

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. LS

NFL protesting the flag- POWERFUL!!

                                       

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 besides 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 on 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.

McCain is sliding deeper and deeper into the swamp


Our nation’s political process is under siege and the coup is being led by the corrupt main stream media and the big government progressives on the left. The political cowards that make up the Republican establishment also deserve credit for their part in this attack on our freedom. It has become clear that the once peaceful transition of power enjoyed by our country no longer exists.

As he promised President Trump remains focused on making America great again. Economic confidence is soaring as the president repeals job killing regulations enacted by Barack Obama. Illegal border crossings are down 60% and sanctuary cities will finally be forced to pay for their crimes. With Neil Gorsuch ready to assume his seat on the Supreme Court our Constitution is more secure and the rule of law will once again prevail.

Having said that, President Trump should use caution when calling out the conservative wing of the House of Representatives. The media, the Democrats and the Washington establishment are his enemies, not the Freedom Caucus. These are principled members of Congress who were instrumental in delivering historic Republican victories in 2010 and 2014. They were early supporters of Donald Trump when the Republican establishment was nowhere to be seen. These are legislators who want their President to succeed and had nothing to do with the poorly written and ill-conceived health care legislation. What sense does it make to replace a horrible health care law, Obamacare, that is completely owned by the Democrats with a horrible health care law completely owned by Republicans. It would be a political blunder to let Democrats off the hook that easily.

The Freedom Caucus understands that they won’t end up with everything they want. They also understand that as a party they need to present something that actually repeals Obamacare. Why was there such a rush put on this all important legislation? Why the deadline and why no input from conservatives? This could eventually still be a win. Congress needs to get back to work and come up with a better deal for the American people.

The Freedom Caucus should be commended for the political courage they have displayed. Unlike the DC establishment these are not the folks that populate the swamp President Trump promised to drain. These are the patriots that will help him drain it.

John Boehner on Ted Cruz


“I have never worked with a more miserable son-of-a-bitch in my life”. These words, aimed at Senator Ted Cruz, were delivered by former Speaker of the House, John Boehner. How sad Boehner refused to show this type of contempt toward Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reed while they rammed Obamacare down our throats and added $5 trillion to our national debt. He’s a political coward and deserved to lose his job. There are many who deserve the same fate.

There are no longer two parties in Washington, there is only one corrupt mess of big government progressives from both sides of the isle.  Getting re-elected and amassing power is what they seek and the American people always take a back seat to these goals. We don’t need to be lectured by out-of-touch political hacks like John Boehner. Unless the status quo is challenged, and defeated, the rotting of our Republic will continue and the Constitution of the United States will disappear.

The Republican Party, the RNC, Created Trump!


Post By Jeff Longo

In a recent column, Washington Post opinion writer George Will warns, if Donald Trump wins the presidential nomination prepare for the end of the Republican Party as we know it. For many of us that transformation had already begun long before Mr. Trump took the stage. Let’s be clear, Donald Trump’s political success is the product of a Republican establishment that has abandoned the values that got them elected. They have no one to blame but themselves.

With majorities in both houses they have failed to control spending while fully funding Obamacare, Planned Parenthood and the Syrian Refugee Program. There have been no meaningful steps taken to secure our border and they have failed to stop a lawless president who has done great damage to our country.

Democrats have allowed their party to be hijacked by the corrupt left who have driven wedges between the American people while creating a culture of victimization. The Republican establishment is doing much the same within their own party. They have lost the trust of many from their conservative base and they can no longer take my vote for granted.
