Here is what all the fuss is about.

As president of the United States of America, Donald Trump puts his life and family on the line every day. Trump and his family are repetitively threatened with death and various other sorts of harm – not only by operators on foreign soil, but by seeming lunatics inside America itself.

He is under constant threat by those who state they want him dead or torn to pieces, that they want his family kidnapped, raped, beaten, or killed.

A few prominent names of those expressing stated dislike of Donald Trump are Robert De Niro, Tom Arnold, Maxine Waters, Don Lemon, Van Jones, LeBron James, Eminem, Madonna, Cher, Michael Moore, and many others too numerous to list here. Why do they seem to feel this way – and liberals, all?

Leftists call his wife a "whore", and run around with signs saying "rape Melania". They hold up his bloody and severed head as a "joke", call for his assassination as a "joke", call his 10-year-old son a rapist and autistic and a homeschool shooter, and they are suddenly claiming the moral high ground? ...

And the more he fights back, the more the Left rages...and the more the media exposes themselves as being utterly corrupt, and how truly hateful the Left has become. Nor is this a fringe element. This is the Left. They are putting on a show for all to see, and are too stupid to realize that everyday Americans are paying attention.

Now this is interesting given the bill that has recently passed that allows confiscation of farmland without compensation. If I understand the story correctly Julius Malema was the one pushing the ANC really hard for this bill and saying the whites stole the land from blacks.

Now this is where it gets interesting. It seems blacks are still moving to South Africa from other less fortunate countries in Africa, and not being welcomed in by some of the blacks that are already there. In fact some are being murdered because their accent gives away their origins. Well Julius Malema is trying to stop the murders and grow his political support by gathering these newcomers into his camp. In an effort to do so he is trying to get the blacks that have been there from attacking the newly immigrated. Which leads to this. He recently gave a speech admitting that all the Bantu people there were not native to that part of Africa.

Instead of me rambling on about a subject I have only heard about, I'll provide a link to an interesting video on the subject. I admit I don't know much about Willem Petzer who makes videos on youtube, but he uses actual footage of Ju;ius Malema speeches to make his point. I doubt this will have much effect on the new law, but it is worth watching IMO.

The balance of power on the Supreme is shifting to the right me thinks.

66 long years and now the change. The long silence between North and South Korea is about to end.

This is a very historic moment and even the PM of Japan has applauded our President's initiative on this change.

The Greek crisis


It is a beautiful day in a small Greek village. The streets are empty; they are bad times, because everyone has debts, and all live on the puff.
Then a wealthy Dutch tourist drives into the Greek village and stops at a small hotel.
He tells the owner that he would like to view the rooms in order to rent a room for one night, and pays 100 Euro at the counter as collateral.
The owner gives him a few keys.
When the visitor is up the stairs, the hotel owner picks up the money, runs to the butcher and pays his debts.
The butcher takes the 100 Euro, walks out of the street and pays the farmer.
The farmer takes the money and pays his bill at the cold store.
The man there takes the money and runs to the pub to pay for his liquor bill.
The pub boss pushes the amount to a prostitute sitting at the bar, where he still had debts.
The prostitute runs to the hotel to pay her outstanding bill of 100 euros.
The hotel boss puts the money back on the counter.
At that moment the tourist comes down the stairs again, takes the money from the counter and indicates that the rooms are not on him and he leaves the village. Nobody has produced anything.
Nobody has earned anything.
Everyone has lost their debts and looks forward to the future with optimism.

So, now you know how it is. The rescue package works that simple !!!!

As a trade war heats up, Canada is making our own stance in regards to the illegal tariffs that are being slapped on the free trade goods. Even the US NAFTA negotiator said that Canada's move was brilliant, targeting those areas and states that would affect trump supporters.

The current trade war isn't because of Canadian steel and aluminum, but is actually due to the fact that we don't accept US dairy products into Canada. As the US injects their cows with rBGH, a synthetic growth hormone (supplied by Monsanto), Canadian scientists tested it years ago, and could not confirm Monsanto's claims, and thus banned the substance and US dairy. At that time, the scientists were fired by the conservative government, but not before they released their findings, thus ensuring that Canadian health was protected.

Current testing is inconclusive, however rBGH has been known to increase certain cells that cause breast, ovary and prostate cancer. With the number of cancers in western civilization, we don't need to exacerbate that in any way shape or form. Nor do I think we need to put Canadian health at risk, or to decimate our own dairy industry.

I wrote a few weeks ago how I'd run into a dairy farmer and how he'd asked me not to post photos of his farm and house on the local Facebook page. I hadn't, but he wanted to ensure that I didn't, either. No problem. He told me at that time he's a key figure in the Dairy Farmer's of Canada organization.

As this dairy issue is coming to a head, I contacted him today via a fb message asking him why negotiations to take illegal US milk were even a consideration and what about protecting our own dairy industry? He responded that he would get back to me as he was in a meeting and thanked me for my concern on this issue.

These current tariffs are punishment for not accepting the dairy into Canada, and as far as I'm concerned, an illegal substance is an illegal substance and there's no room at all for any negotiation on it.

Canadians are generally sick and tired of the US' bullying in regards to our resources and trade, and we haven't forgotten the $5 billion that California still owes us for power they were sold when they didn't have enough and the $5 billion that the courts ruled the US owed us on softwood lumber that was also never paid (and some idiot minister forgave). Despite the courts ruling that the US owes the $5 billion for the power, we have yet to see a penny of it. It'd be great to see another power shortage in Ca and for Canada to tell them so sorry. No can do, you don't pay your bills. If Ca has one of the highest economies in the world, then why can't they pay their bills? Maybe it's why they have one of the highest economies, they screw over their suppliers.

Regardless of that issue, there's simply no reason for Canada to have to bend over to take the excess milk and dairy that the US can't dump anywhere else. The EU won't take it, and up until now, neither has Canada, nor should they. They need to find other markets for their dairy, and if Canada and the EU won't take it because of the hormones injected into the cows, then perhaps they need to rethink their methods.

As far as I'm concerned, the trade war can go on indefinitely, Canada can start restricting her sale of resources to the US and adding tariff upon tariff in retaliation and an effort to protect OUR country and citizens. There are many other trade partners in the world, and it's more than time Canada sought other partners.

The US should be careful about insulting us, considering we supply them with much needed power. And it's always a Republican president who starts this divisive bs, pissing off their allies. As much as I love my US friends, this trade war is not doing either country any good, and I hope our PM has enough balls to tell trump to shove his dairy where the sun doesn't shine.

Looks like it may be time for Canadians to burn down the White House again, metaphorically speaking.

Give credit to whom it is due. Suck it liberals.

Especially you Pelosi.
