President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump Welcome Their Majesties King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein and Queen Rania Al Abdullah To The White House…


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree House on June 25, 2018 by

Earlier today President Trump and First Lady Melania welcomed King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein and Queen Rania Al Abdullah of Jordan back to the White House.  This is the second official visit of King Abdullah and Queen Raina.

In the background it is likely much of the executive conversation surrounds the current issues with Iran, the state of Syria, Israel and the Palestinian Authority as it pertains to regional stability overall and Jordan specifically.   In the quiet distance, and entirely overlooked by Western -mostly U.S. media, President Trump has been positioning the EU via economic leverage against Iranian influence.

.

[Transcript] PRESIDENT TRUMP: Thank you very much. It’s a great honor to have the King and Queen of Jordan with us. They’re friends. We’ve known each other now for quite a while. Long before this.

But you have done an incredible job on the refugees and the camps and taking care of people. And I just want to say while our nations have a very good relationship, we now have a great relationship. But the job you do on a humanitarian basis is fantastic. And I would like to thank you very much.

KING ABDULLAH II: Thank you. And if, sir, I could thank you and the United States and the people of America for all the support you’ve given our country. If the rest of the world just took a little bit of your humility and your grace to help us, we’d be in a lot better position.

But if it wasn’t for the United States — just on behalf of myself and my people, thank you so much for all that you’ve done.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: Remember, he used the word “humility” with respect to me, so I am very happy with that word. That’s probably the nicest compliment I’ve been given in a long time.

No, the job you do is fantastic. And yes, we do — we spend a lot of money, but we spend a lot of money in a lot of places. And people don’t do the job that you do, so I want to thank you very much.

KING ABDULLAH II: Thank you, sir. Thank you.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: Okay. Thank you very much, everybody.

Q Mr. President, do you regret signing the executive order?

PRESIDENT TRUMP: No, no. The executive order was great. It was something that I felt we had to do. We want children staying together. The law has been this law for a long period of time. You would understand this better than most because of the great job you do in your country.

No, it was — there was a false story, fake news in the New York Times. Just the opposite: I wanted to sign that. In fact, I was saying yesterday, before I read this phony story in the New York Times, that I was very, very happy that I signed that.

And it also — it shows. You know, we’re all talking about humanity, whether it’s what you’re doing in Jordan or whether it’s what we’re doing here. The laws are obsolete. The laws are horrible having to do with the border, both in terms of security and in terms of taking care of people.

President Obama had a big problem. In fact, a lot of the pictures used they thought would be — I guess, I don’t know what you folks did. You used pictures from 2014. They were all taken during the Obama administration. But the Bush administration had the same. It’s the same laws. They’re a disaster. The laws have to be changed. And whether it’s North Korea or whether it’s so many different things like trade, we’re taking care of a lot of problems that should have been taken care of over the years.

Well, one of the highest on the list is immigration. And we have to change our laws. We have to make them sensible. They came in to see me last week; they said, “We’d like to hire 5,000 more judges.” Five thousand. You ever hear of thing like that? Judges. Well, we’re appointing 145 judges here, and everyone goes through this extreme vetting process. You’re talking about 5,000. Where do you find 5,000 people to be judges? And you know what it leads? It leads to graft. It leads to a lot of other things.

We want a system where, when people come in illegally, they have to go out. And a nice simple system that works. You know, Mexico holds people for four hours, for five hours, for two hours, and they’re gone. We have people for four, five, six years and they never leave. So we want to have a great immigration.

What we have is very simple. We want strong borders and we want no crime. Strong borders. We want no crime. The Democrats want open borders and they don’t care about crime, and they don’t care about our military. I care about our military. That’s what we want and that’s what we’re going to get. And we’re going to get it sooner than people think.

Thank you very much. Thank you everybody. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you all very much.

Q What about the Middle East? Chances of peace better in the Middle East?

THE PRESIDENT: We’re doing very well in the Middle East. We’re doing very well in the Middle East, yes.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Q When do you want to release the Middle East peace plan?

THE PRESIDENT: I can only say this — and His Majesty knows we’re doing very well in the Middle East. A lot of progress has been made in the Middle East. A lot. And it really started with the end of the horrible Iran deal. That deal was a disaster, and things are a lot different since we ended that. A lot different.

Thank you all very much.

END 2:14 P.M. EDT

Those who know how to notice the Trump Doctrine at work will clearly see a very familiar pattern amid the latest geopolitical strategy currently underway by President Trump.

The president is using economic leverage against the majority EU influence agents, vis-a-vis EU trade positioning within the auto-sector which directly targets Germany¹. The Trump Doctrine as currently deployed is structuring a two-fold win/win. Leveraging EU auto-sector trade tariffs will likely end up with Germany removing all trade restrictions.

The removal of a looming 20% trade tariff benefits the German auto-sector; secondarily it reaches the economic goal of the administration to remove all trade barriers, ie reciprocity. Win #1 (majority benefit EU, minority benefit U.S).

However, in exchange for that benefit President Trump will likely request full EU (France and Germany specifically) support toward renewed and increased sanctions against Iran. Win #2 (majority benefit U.S. foreign policy).

¹ What is particularly interesting about this approach, in this instance, is how President Trump actually created leverage from nothing.  The “threat of” the 20% reciprocal auto tariff is leverage.  The threat would not have as much predictive authority if the Steel and Aluminum tariff did not precede it.  The EU is now forced to accept that even when President Trump proposes something (previously under any other administration they would have ignored), under President Trump it *could* likely happen.  So they must arrange their affairs accordingly.

Red Hen Restaurant Owner Followed Sanders Family To Next Restaurant to Continue Harassment…


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree House on June 25, 2018 by

Stephanie Wilkinson and family, owners of Red Hen restaurant.

Back Story Here –  The story of White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders being kicked out of a Virginia restaurant by the owner, Stephanie Wilkinson, takes on more context today as Mike Huckabee explained during a radio interview.

According to Mr. Huckabee the owner of the Red Hen restaurant not only kicked out Sarah Sanders and her in-laws, but she followed them to another restaurant, organized a group of people to assist her efforts, and then led the mob in continued harassment of the Sanders family.

Mike Huckabee was interviewed by Laura Ingraham for her radio show:

.

For the conservative, when life presents great struggles, he/she knows she has the power to surmount them. Happiness stems from internal strength and perseverance. For the liberal, when life presents great struggles, the system failed, therefore they were at the mercy of a faulty system, and they believe that only when the system is fixed can their life improve.

A progressive liberals’ happiness is built on systemic contingencies, which they will then seek to control or expect someone else to.  One holds herself accountable; the other holds anyone and everyone accountable except herself.

And there it is. There’s where the origin of hate comes from.

The liberal ideology causes that person to cast anger at the world when things go wrong or appear “unfair.” She constantly chooses only to see the “injustices” – and that makes for a very miserable, toxic and blame-casting existence.

IG Report: Footnote #124, Page 164 – Clinton Email Investigation: “The Fix Was In”…


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree House on June 25, 2018 by

Within the Inspector General report into how the DOJ and FBI handled the Clinton email investigation, on Page #164, footnote #124 the outline is laid bare for all to witness. The Clinton classified email investigation was structured to deliver a predetermined outcome.

John Spiropoulos delivers the first video in a series of reports on the Department of Justice Inspector General’s review into the investigation of Hillary Clinton. This segment focuses on DOJ’s legal interpretation that virtually assured Clinton would not be prosecuted. And that, as the IG reports states, the FBI and DOJ knew that “by September 2015″…

Ill-legal migration is invasion


Don’t believe for a second that the leadership of the Democratic Party gives a damn about the children crossing our border illegally. These are not principled people and they have two objectives – amnesty for illegals and open borders. The survival of their party requires voters who are dependent on government. To them illegal aliens are nothing more than future votes. Democrats will never support legislation that secures our border or doesn’t grant amnesty to illegals.

Pardon me if I reserve my sympathy for the American families whose lives have been destroyed by the animals belonging to the brutal MS-13 gangs.

I refuse to be lectured by those who support the slaughter that takes place behind the walls of Planned Parenthood. These are the babies being separated from life, not their parents.

CNN v Trump


Armstrong Economics Blog/Press

Re-Posted Jun 24, 2018 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: It is really getting so bad with CNN they should just be shut down for they are no longer a news organization but a political propaganda machine. They paint Trump as getting a bad deal with North Korea and they then tried to make him look like an idiot saying to Trudeau that Canada was involved in the War of 1812. Am I wrong, but Canada was still British in 1812 and indeed declared war on the United States?

WH

ANSWER: Yes, you are correct. Canada was not an independent nation until the Constitution Act officially proclaimed the Canadian Confederation on July 1, 1867. It was initially with only four provinces: Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. Canada actually declared war on the USA before Britain and it is assumed that they simply had advanced notice. CNN tried to make it seem as if the USA invaded Canada first as if this began the War of 1812. They omit the fact that the British restricted US trade with France and went as far as seizing Americans and forcing them to man ships for the British as if the USA was not even a country.

The United States suffered several very costly defeats at the hands of British, Canadian, and Native American troops who Canada hired. So yes, the “Canadians” who were really British back then,  were part of the War of 1812 and that included the capture and burning of the nation’s capital, Washington, D.C., in August 1814. The Americans were able to repel the British invasions in New York, Baltimore, and New Orleans. The British/Canadians made a good attempt to conquer the United States. Eventually, there was the Treaty of Ghent on February 17, 1815, which ended the war. That still did not resolve all the issues and the British were seeking revenge for the American Revolution. Therefore, the War of 1812 has often been called the “second war of independence” and CNN deliberately misrepresented the facts once again to stab Trump in the back.

Fake News – Little Girl Was Never Taken From Her Mother


Armstrong Economics Blog/Press

Re-Posted Jun 23, 2018 by Martin Armstrong

 

It turns out that the Fake News has managed to use a picture of little Hondorus girl and told the world she was taken from her mother. The girl’s father has come out and made it clear that she was NEVER taken from her mother and she is with her mother in the immigration center in McAllen, Texas where they have applied for asylum. The girl’s confirmed father, Denis Valera, told Reuters: “My daughter has become a symbol of the … separation of children at the U.S. border. She may have even touched President Trump’s heart.”  The Honduran deputy foreign minister Nelly Jerez confirmed Valera’s version of events.

So once again we have clear evidence of Fake News simply desperate to discredit Trump at every possible step. The United States is slipping into a state of two countries. The left simply hates the right and the right cannot understand the left. This is the very condition that is the forerunner of a civil war. It really does not matter that the truth comes out about this little girl. People believe what they want to believe which is self-evidence of how rapidly the media will jump on anything to create dissent, hatred, and division with the United States. They are doing an excellent job at creating disunity and this will not end well. The War Cycle internally within the USA turned up beginning in 2014 and moves intensely into 2024-2025.

Books We Recommend


Armstrong Economics Blog/Training Tools

Re-Posted Jun 23, 2018 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong,
I stumbled across you a few years ago and found your work refreshingly insightful and the joined the subscription service for the private blog. Though I am just your average middle-class citizen, I am glad that I now have a true picture of what the future holds while many of the sheep walk blindly into the future. Because of your willingness to share I have a general understanding of what is to come and will try to prepare as best as possible. My question is, Is there a book on a period of history that mimics what is going to happen over the next 21 years where I could maybe grab more insight into how the average person can best to position themselves so as not be left out in the cold? Are there any fictional works that nail the future so the average person knows what to do with savings accounts, 401K’s, mortgages, etc in the coming years? Lastly is there the possibility that you would write a special report that we could buy that would be the blueprint for the average American to follow over the next 21 years? I would sure buy it! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and well wishes for many years to come.
Sincerely,
AG

ANSWER: There is no single book that I can recommend. I am trying to find the time to put one together for the sources are many. You can read Herbert Hoover’s Memoirs and I would recommend reading 1931. The problem has been that most of the books have been propaganda and have been written to support a predetermined conclusion. Most of my sources have been contemporary, gathering the facts from many sources and putting it all together. Nonetheless, we have provided a number of books you can look at digitally. It has been a lot of work and my time is so tight. I am trying to get this together soon.

Accidental Honesty – Chief Canadian NAFTA Negotiator Slips-up on Camera and Admits There’s No Actual Negotiations Taking Place…


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree House on June 24, 2018 by

Whoopsie – During a debriefing session between Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland, Canadian politicians and business leaders, the chief NAFTA negotiator for Canada Steve Verheul accidentally told the group, while cameras were rolling, there were no actual NAFTA negotiations taking place.

When a seemingly shocked participant then asked a follow-up question about how could Steve Verheul reconcile that admission against earlier statements about an upcoming  Memo of Understanding (MOU), Ms. Freeland quickly shut down the discussion -in french- until the cameras left the meeting.  [Watch Video Segment Here]

Council Question: “Do you still meet your counterparts? Do you still have committees that are working?  What is the status of the negotiations?

Steve Verheul: “We don’t have any active negotiations. I haven’t talked to them in a little while.”

Council Question: “Since, …since?”

Steve Verheul: “Two or three weeks. Um, I’ll have the odd conversation, but no real engagement, no real negotiation session.”

Council Question: “And when we hear that you were close to a kind of MOU [Memo of Understanding] what was the basis of that?”

Chrystia Freeland: awkward interruption in French. (watch below)

What became evident within the exchange is the Canadian government trying to hide the lack of NAFTA progress from concerned citizens inside Canada.  In essence, the Canadian government is lying to their citizens about the possibility of a NAFTA agreement.

The Canadian economy contracting.  Last month the Canadian economy dropped 31,000 full-time jobs.  Amid an economy one-tenth the size of the U.S, that would be a comparative single-month job loss of 310,000 in the United States.

By contrast the U.S. economy is firing an all cylinders as massive investment flows into America.  In the same month the Canadian economy dropped 31k FT jobs, the U.S. economy added over 223,000 new jobs.

Ms. Freeland and Justin from Canada are trying to keep their electorate from comprehending what is about to happen.  The video segment is a brief window into the collective desperation amid a central cast of left-wing economic characters who are focused on feelings and political sensibilities.

The accidental video snippet was also captured and tweeted:

Representative Maxine Waters Rallies Mob, Demands Political Violence Against Trump Administration…


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree house on June 24, 2018 by

Don’t look away.  Don’t dismiss this.  Pretty soon a group of democrat socialists are going to engage in a violent mass casualty event against Americans they disagree with.  Watch as fascist Representative Maxine Waters openly calls for political violence against any member of the Trump administration.

.

Next up, legislation to require President Trump supporters to wear armbands.  Democrats are returning to their roots.
