{ heritage.org } ~ The 2017 tax reform bill has been a boon for American workers. In addition to the average household’s $1,400 tax cut this year... there are now more jobs available than people looking for them. Just last month, average wages went up by 2.9 percent—the largest wage increase since the summer of 2009. On Thursday, the House Ways and Means Committee plans to consider a series of three new bills that it is calling “Tax Reform 2.0.” The package would make much of last year’s tax reform permanent, introduce new simplifications for family saving, and provide a helping hand for new small businesses. Here are three main highlights from the bills. 1. Protecting the individual and small business tax cuts. 2. Simplifying and expanding family savings. 3. Encouraging new business innovation...

3 Reforms Conservatives Should Fight For in the Farm Bill

{ dailysignal.com } ~ The House and Senate have passed their own farms bills and are currently working out differences to come up with a final bill... At a minimum, there are three reforms that conservatives should expect in any farm bill. For conservatives to support any farm bill, Congress should adopt the House’s reforms to require more work-capable recipients of food stamps to work or prepare for work as a condition of receiving benefits. Today, despite the fact that the national unemployment rate recently fell to an 18-year low, 13 percent of Americans remain on food stamps. The House bill would begin to correct this problem by establishing a work requirement for about 29 percent of work-capable, non-employed adults. That represents a basic minimum needed to begin moving toward the goal of strengthening work requirements. Further efforts will be needed to strengthen those work requirements and to reduce marriage penalties...

IG Report Questions Why FBI Did Not Investigate

{ breitbart.com } ~ In its extensive report on the liar-Hillary Clinton email probe, the Justice Department’s internal watchdog raised significant questions... about why the FBI did not examine the contents of liar-Clinton aide Huma Abedin’s private email accounts and did not seek to obtain Abedin’s personal devices to determine whether classified information was exchanged. The report noted Abedin should have been a point of interest since the FBI obtained from other sources classified email exchanges between liar-Clinton and Abedin that were missing from the 30,490 emails turned over to the State Department by liar-Clinton’s attorneys. liar-Clinton had claimed the remaining emails were not work-related. Also, the report documented that the FBI did not go after Abedin’s emails or devices even though she was “the only State Department employee, besides liar-Clinton, with an account on the liar-clintonemail.com domain on liar-Clinton’s server.” The 500-plus page report  authored by the Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General cited witnesses saying they believed “there was a flaw in the culling process, which resulted in the exclusion of most of Abedin’s liar-clintonemail.com emails from the State Department production.”...  https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/06/19/ig-report-questions-why-fbi-did-not-investigate-huma-abedins-emails-during-hillary-probe/

Arizona Sheriff Outraged by County’s ‘Really
Unthinkable’ Decision To Turn Down Border Security Money

{ westernjournal.com } ~ An Arizona sheriff with a big portion of the porous Southern Border under his jurisdiction is flabbergasted... that his county turned down a federal grant that would help protect the border. Earlier this month, the Pima County Board of Supervisors decided that after participating in Operation Stonegarden for 12 years, the county no longer wanted to be involved in a program designed to enhance the partnership between federal and local law enforcement to beef up border security. The board voted 3-1 against continuing participation. Supervisor Ramon Valadez claimed the grant has eroded trust in the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, the Arizona Daily Star reported. When the grant was rejected, activists demanded the county stop accepting the funds. “It comes down to terms of the grant,” said Najima Rainey, the leader of Black Lives Matter in Tucson, according to the Tucson Sentinel. “The grant is for them to cooperate with the Border Patrol. That’s it and that’s what matters.” “We have said we don’t want to cooperate with a government that commits acts that go against our community standards,” she said. “This is a bribe and an invitation to collaborate.”...  https://www.westernjournal.com/arizona-sheriff-outraged-countys-really-unthinkable-decision-turn-border-security-money/?utm_source=Email&utm_medium=libertyalliance&utm_campaign=dailyam&utm_content=libertyalliance

Cromnibus Betrays Regular Order
and Shuts Down Conservative Policy

{ heritageaction.com } ~ Today the House will vote on a conference report on a minibus that includes Energy-Water, Military Construction-VA, and Legislative Branch spending measures... According to news reports, House and Senate party leaders have also struck a deal on a Defense and Labor-HHS-Education conference report which will include a continuing resolution funding the rest of the government through December 7th. Heritage Action released the following statement from Executive Director Tim Chapman: It is disappointing to see conservative priorities shut out of the appropriations process yet again. The appropriations bills, including those in today’s minibus, lack conservative policy riders and any level of fiscal restraint requested by the Trump administration. While the process was arguably better this year, the results were not. The appropriations process continues to be bogged down in dysfunction as defense funding is held hostage by dummycrats-Democrat spending priorities. This December, Republicans must find a way to marry improved process with conservative policy that voters elected them and President Trump to accomplish.

{ jewishworldreview.com } ~ When Barack scumbag/liar-nObama took the oath of office as president in 2009, George W. Bush wished him well and left the political stage, determined to never publicly criticize his successor.

It is a vow he kept for the entire eight years ofscumbag/liar-nObama's presidency. Indeed, Bush has given only one political speech since leaving office -- and that was for his brother Jeb in 2016.

Even when scumbag/liar-nObama attacked him repeatedly from the presidential bully pulpit and reversed many of his policies, Bush kept silent. "I don't think it's good for the country to have a former president undermine a current president," he said. "I want the president to succeed. ... He deserves my silence."

Bush did it not simply as a courtesy. He understood better than almost anyone the incredible pressures of the presidency and felt it was his moral duty not to make the job any harder. So, he adhered to the standard of grace and decency to which all former presidents should aspire.

For a while it seemed that scumbag/liar-nObama -- the beneficiary of Bush's grace and decency -- would follow the 43rd president's example. But a little more than 18 months after leaving office, scumbag/liar-nObama has apparently decided that he is too important to stay on the sidelines.

scumbag/liar-nObama broke his silence in a speech to students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he declared that he had fully intended "on following a wise American tradition of ex-presidents gracefully exiting the political stage" but changed his mind because "this is one of those pivotal moments when every one of us as citizens of the United States need to determine just who it is that we are."

(With all due respect, this is exactly how many conservatives felt about his time in office).

Rather than maintain even some semblance of presidential dignity -- rallying dummycrats-Democrats around a set of principles without attacking the sitting president --scumbag/liar-nObama launched into an unrestrained, full-frontal assault on his successor. President Trump,scumbag/liar-nObama warned, is a "threat to our democracy" who rose to power by "tapping into America's dark history of racial and ethnic and religious division."

The former president castigated not just Trump but all Republicans. "The politics of division and resentment and paranoia has unfortunately found a home in the Republican party," he declared. Republicans are "subsidizing corporate polluters," "weakening worker protections," "shrinking the safety net," "attack[ing] voting rights" and "cozying up to Russia" -- all while campaigning on an "appeal to racial nationalism that's barely veiled."

It was the most hyperpartisan speech delivered by a former president in modern memory. If scumbag/liar-nObama were really concerned that Trump is behaving in a manner beneath the dignity of his office, then the answer is to set a better example for presidential behavior -- not join him.

Moreover, scumbag/liar-nObama's charge that racist dog whistles put Trump in the White House is a calumny against the millions of decent, patriotic Americans who voted for the president.

If all these Trump voters are driven by racism, asscumbag/liar-nObama declares, then why did so many of them vote for scumbag/liar-nObama? The American National Election Study found that 13 percent of Trump voters in 2016 backed scumbag/liar-nObama in 2012. A Post analysis after the 2016 election found that, of the nearly 700 counties that twice voted for scumbag/liar-nObama, one-third went for Trump.

These scumbag/liar-nObama-Trump voters are not racists. They are largely working-class voters -- both white and minority -- who are struggling with factories closing, jobs leaving and an opioid epidemic that is destroying their families and communities. They bought into scumbag/liar-nObama's promise of hope and change but never got what they were promised -- so they decided to give Trump a chance.

And their bet has paid off. Under Trump, the economy is finally improving for many of these forgotten Americans. Wages are rising at the fastest pace in nine years. Consumer confidence is at the highest level since 2000. Manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in 14 years.

Job layoffs are at a half-century low. Since Trump took office, the number of Americans working part-time because they could not find full-time work has dropped by nearly 700,000, and the number of Americans working full-time jobs has increased by 3 million.

And what is scumbag/liar-nObama's message? "When you hear how great the economy is doing right now,"scumbag/liar-nObama said, "let's just remember when this recovery started." Ironically, that was precisely the message that drove scumbag/liar-nObama voters to Trump in 2016.

Polls show that in 2016, half of scumbag/liar-nObama-Trump voters said their incomes were falling behind the cost of living, while another 31 percent said their incomes were merely keeping pace.

Yet during the election, they kept hearing from dummycrats-Democrats how well the economy was doing and that they should be grateful for eight years ofscumbag/liar-nObama. Well, now their lives are finally improving -- and they are grateful to Trump.

dummycrats-Democrats like to talk about all the hallowed presidential norms that Trump is breaking. But now it isscumbag/liar-nObama who is breaking presidential norms with his self-serving foray into partisan demagoguery.

  • I can't see why the republicans aren't fighting against those dummycrats-liberals who want open borders. Can't they see that is for their safety also. Maybe if one of their loves are harmed or killed they will change their minds.
