So many questions surround how Melania Trump's parents received US green cards, as President rails against 'chain migration and now they`ve just became in American Citizens.
How easy was for them to become in American Citizens while some Latinos families are separated 'Put in cages' or 'taken care of': How separated immigrant children are ....
If they were Mexicans, would they be able to get green cards and then naturalized as American citizens?

Former CIA Officer and whistle blower Kevin Shipp says what Hillary Clinton did with her charity and Uranium One while she was Secretary of State was a crime for the history books.

Shipp explains, “Hillary Clinton used this to launder money in foreign banks so it wasn’t subject to U.S. laws, congressional subpoenas or FOIA demands for the evidence. This was done to launder this money globally into the Clinton Foundation so the U.S. government could not examine it at all.”

Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller was the head of the FBI while the Uranium One deal was being done by Clinton and the Russians. One fifth of U.S. uranium production was bought by the Russians in a deal Clinton pushed and approved. The Clinton Foundation received more than $140 million from some of the same Russian players who were involved with Uranium One. Why didn’t Mueller stop the deal? Shipp says,

“Mueller is either a complete moron, which he is not, or he overlooked the biggest counterterrorism cases in U.S. history. It involved Hillary Clinton, the Clinton Foundation, Uranium One and, of course, the destruction of all the emails and evidence and her secret server, and on and on and on it goes, and he (Mueller) ignored it all.”

How did she get away with obvious crime? Shipp says,

“The most bizarre thing is the people who protected her from clear felonious activity and violations of the Espionage Act. James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence, was protecting her and leaking things to the media and lying. You had John Brennan, Director of the CIA, protecting her by starting a false investigation (on Trump) and stirring things up with this (false/unverified) dossier. You had James Comey, Director of the FBI, protecting her...

Then, you’ve got Peter Strzok protecting her, and now it appears the United Kingdom GCHQ was using NSA information to target Donald Trump and protect Hillary Clinton. You have to ask yourself what kind of power or connections does this woman have to get all of these members of the Deep State, Shadow Government to risk their own criminal penalties to protect her and try to get her elected? That is the Shadow Government. That is the Deep State. That is what is so chilling about this whole thing...

This is deep. This is dark. This is as dark as it gets, and this is the biggest espionage case involving government officials in the history of this country.”

"The plastic straw ban is important for gun control. It stops pea shooting and spit balling which are gateway guns." - Nancy Pelosi

Hey people.
Since the earliest i can remember, i was always reading. Marvel Comics, illustrated books, Readers Digest and Arthur Mee's Children's Encyclopedia, apart from most pf the classics, all of Enyd Blyton's Famous Five and Agatha Christie's Poirot works.
But a great book which I kept going to over and over from early reading stage to late teenager was a well gnarled copy of Aesop's Fables and all the lessons learned from it.
However the most powerful story that eventually guided me through my life was Hans Christian Andersons's The Emperor's New Clothes.
It taught me to always say the truth !
Politicians the world over today badly need the morals of Aesop's Fables, and the lesson learned from Hans Christian Anderson's fashion inspired tale. Really.
Peace !

The Lincoln Model

Today there are many Republicans who blame Trump for the de-Reaganization of the Republican Party and wistfully pine for the 1980s era of gentleman’s politics. This is, by the large, the main source of anxiety about Trump in some Republican quarters, and it is also the driving momentum of the so-called “Never Trump” movement.

I came of age in the Reagan area, and I too prefer a more civil political climate. But that is not the America we live in now. Reagan’s policies and style were perfectly calibrated to deal with the specific problems and specific political environment of the late 1970s. Today, however, a good deal of Reaganism is obsolete. Not only has stagflation disappeared and the Soviet Union collapsed but Reagan himself would be a fish out of water in the dark, roiled currents of today.

But Lincoln wouldn’t. His political environment was even more roiled than the one we have now. And Lincoln would have seen that, in this environment, an environment made by a gangster clan of Democrats like Obama and Hillary, you don’t get very far with Reagan’s gentlemanly style. In short, Trump is the man of the hour, not Reagan. Trump has the chance to do what Reagan never even dreamed about, taking a page from Lincoln and smashing the Democratic plantation.

When we consider Trump’s two big Republican “heresies”—his positions on trade and immigration—we can see that they might be heresies from Reagan’s point of view, but they were not heresies from Lincoln’s point of view. As Gabor Boritt shows in Lincoln and the Economics of the American Dream, Lincoln’s GOP was unabashedly protectionist and viewed tariffs as a necessary and valid economic strategy to protect American workers and American industry from mercantilist competition from European powers.

And while many progressives as well as conservatives insist that tariffs have never worked, Trump seems to be making them work, as evidenced by the recent agreement with the EU to lower its tariffs. Historically, Boritt shows that America had tariffs from Hamilton’s time through the end of the 19th century, and it was during this period that America grew most rapidly and became the largest economy in the world, surpassing Great Britain.

On immigration, too, Trump and Lincoln can be seen as generally aligned. This point is hardly obvious, but we get a vital clue about how Lincoln would have thought about today’s immigration debate but considering the position Lincoln actually took on extending civil rights—the right to full citizenship, the right to vote, the right to serve on juries—to blacks. Lincoln basically held that it is wrong for any people, anywhere, to enslave another people because slavery is wrong or, to put it philosophically, against natural right.

But natural rights are not the same as civil rights. Civil rights are the product of living in a particular community. The community is a social compact between the citizens who have formed that community. These existing citizens have the right to decide who gets to be a member of their club, and on what terms.

Liberals, lacking facts, manufacture them. That's come to be known as Fake News. Case in point.

What year did the Russians tamper in our elections? What’s the allegation? 2016. That was the election they tampered in.
The absurdity of the Russia investigation

If Russia interfered with the 2016 election, who was responsible?

In 2016
President – Barack Obama
Vice President – Joe Biden
Attorney General – Loretta Lynch
Secretary of Homeland Security – Jeh Johnson
Director if FBI – James Comey
Director of CIA – John Brennan
Director if National Intelligence – James Clapper

These people were in charge of keeping the country safe.

Not only that, the Director of FBI before Comey – Robert Mueller

Only one of these people said anything to Russia about them meddling with America's affairs.

That was President Obama, when he boldly told Russia to “Knock it off”.
Now that's real statesmanship. Real leadership.

So now it’s two years later, it’s 2018, and all of those people are blaming who for all this? Donald Trump.

Once again liberals, lacking facts, manufacture them. That's come to be known as Fake News.

And don't want to cramp all who is onThe Trump line style . But we need some flava in this place. Too much politics now. I feel as if I am a politician now..
Need some more spicy topics plz..

"You will hear very little about the extraordinary success of the Trump economic program. What a shame. What a media disgrace. Because prosperity is the glue that will bind America together again. And so far, that is President Trump’s outstanding success." —Varney & Co.

President Donald Trump turned to Twitter Wednesday to slam critics of his meeting and press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday.
“So many people at the higher ends of intelligence loved my press conference performance in Helsinki,” Trump wrote on Twitter.

He said the meeting was successful, insisting he had made progress on several issues important to the United States.

“We got along well which truly bothered many haters who wanted to see a boxing match,” he wrote. “Big results will come!”

He accused critics of wanting to go to war with Russia, rather than work together on key issues.

“Some people HATE the fact that I got along well with President Putin of Russia. They would rather go to war than see this,” he wrote. “It’s called Trump Derangement Syndrome!”

Trump said the sanctions on Russia would remain but that Putin was willing to help handle North Korea.

............. Many people think that Hitler was not good at his head. It is said that he might even have psychological illnesses. But I think that is all but true. Hitler has played it very cleverly. Within fifteen years Germany became a leading country of a suffering country. After WWII, Germany was severely affected by the Treaty or Diktat by Versailles. France, England and the US could exercise a lot of power over Germany at that time. But when the NSDAP came to power it completely changed in a short time. Ten years may sound long, but it is a maximum of one millimeter on a timeline. First the Tripple Entente ruled Germany, but now they had to start with the appeasement politics. They tried to stop Germany in vain, but are clearly a bit stunned by this return of Germany. I think that Hitler played this smartly. He had half a good working brain. The only thing is that Hitler was not wise. My opinion is that Hitler was smart, not wise.
Are there more people who are thinking about this
