Schumer’s Shutdown Shakedown
Leftist Democrat Chuck Schumer & Nancy Pelosi
in a recent theatrical newscast repeatedly insulted President Trump over his
desire to secure US borders as part of the budget approval process denying they
would ever approve any security measures for our southern border that included
building a wall despite having said he would approve doing so during the Obama
administration.
They indicated they are not interested in US
border security yet blasted President Trump for pulling out of Syria and not
continuing to secure its security at US expense.
Schumer has long represented the state of New
York, a bastion of progressive, left-wing politicians.
Schumer
has a reputation for political fundraising but has never introduced a
successful bill of his own in Congress despite being in office for more than 20
years. He has, however, been associated
with the Brady Gun Bill, despite being a gun owner. Schumer has never held a job in his adult
life or served in our military or been responsible for a payroll.
The administration’s weaponization of illegal aliens
and refugees may be far more sinister than even the most ardent opponents have
yet imagined.
On
one of these calls, Obama conducted a meeting with his new ‘Task Force On New
Americans,’ chaired by radical Cecilia
Munoz,
former vice president of the radical, Hispanic race-supremacy group La Raza
(‘The Race’).
“Remember
when he (Obama) went to Las Vegas? The media said he was signing an executive
order for five million illegal aliens to become deferred. In reality, what he
did was sign a memorandum that created the ‘Task Force On New Americans,’ which
was going to implement his ‘amnesty mill’ for the five million illegals – which
I believe is going to be more than that… On these conference calls, it became
clear that he’s looking at 13 to 15 million to give protection and move them on
to citizenship.” – Payne
These
initial “new Americans” are to be used as “seedlings” in the construction of a
“country within a country,” which would help complete a full ‘fundamental
transformation’ of the United States.
Specific
cities are being designated as “receiving communities” (sanctuary cities – we now
have 300!) to which illegals are being bused and flown at the expense of
American taxpayers. These communities are being used as incubators for an
entirely new population that assist in bringing ‘people in the shadows’ into
the light – to essentially conquer proper citizens and push them into the
underclasses over time.

Final thoughts: Political Earthquake Coming-Guess Who Will Run
for President?
This
is why I think the GOP lost so much in the past mid-term elections. The Dems/Socialists are tapping into a
growing unrest in America between the haves and the have-nots. There is a coming political earthquake for
this nation.
Social unrest that will erupt more and more frequently
here and around the world if the economic and political elites continue to
behave as they have. Wealth and power have been stripped from the public and
been concentrated into the hands of fewer and fewer people.
In a Pew Research Center study of Americans age 22-37, 57% called
themselves “mostly” or “consistently” liberal. In a Gallup poll of Americans
age 18-29, 51% had a positive view of socialism. And in a University of Chicago
survey of Americans age 18-34, 44% said they would prefer to live in a
socialist country.
Kids today, few of which ever had to fend for themselves or had that
opportunity removed from them by the Nanny State, are drawn to
socialism…they’re broke, they can’t afford today’s high cost homes and autos,
they’re tired of living in basements, they want to make the world a nicer place
– with your money!
Earlier this year…
In the Democratic primary election for New York’s 14th district earlier
this year, democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez trounced incumbent
Representative Joseph Crowley, the fourth-ranking Democrat in the House.
Clearly overconfident, Crowley barely even campaigned. Since then,
Ocasio-Cortez has become a media darling, appearing alongside Vermont Senator
Bernie Sanders, a self-described socialist who narrowly lost the Democratic
presidential nomination in 2016. While much of the energy among Democrats is on
the far left, the party has made a point of selecting candidates with a real
chance of winning in November.
A revolution is
probably coming and the younger generation will likely lead it. That revolution will see several things which
I predict including:
·
A quadrupling of our income tax
·
A national sales tax
·
A single payer health system
·
A $15 minimum wage for everyone across the board nationally
·
A forgiveness of all student debt combined with some
kind of free tuition for college
·
More rights will be eroded such as free speech, gun
rights & even the ability to carry cash over certain amounts [it is already
limited at airports & border checkpoints].
All of this will be in response to the vast growing
inequality income gap in this country which has seen huge declines in our
middle class during the past generation or two.
Many blame the GOP and old line Democrats for maintaining this status quo.
The
middle class has been steadily shrinking, but most Americans still believe that
they are a part of it. Perhaps this is due at least in part to the
egalitarian values which have been pounded into our heads for most of our lives. Very few Americans would
have the gall to define themselves as “upper class”, and I have never met
anyone that would describe themselves as “lower class”. In place of
“lower class”, many politicians now like to use the much more politically
correct term “working class”, but a more apt description might be “the working
poor”. Today, half of all American workers make
less than $30,533 a year,
and you certainly cannot support a middle class lifestyle for a family with
children on that kind of income.
Our
incomes have stagnated as the cost of living has soared, and the middle class
has experienced steady erosion as a result. But despite all that, 68
percent of all Americans still consider themselves Middle Class …
In reality, the middle class
now makes up just over 50 percent of the total U.S. population, according to
a recent report
from Pew Research Center, which used 2016 data. That’s compared to 61 percent in 1971.
CitiBank research indicates Americans are once
again at record credit card debt levels not seen since 2009 and more people are
being denied loans and new credit card applications…they’re even at record
levels of upside down rates in auto loans.
Here’s my big prediction for the next election…Michele
Obama will run for president! Her
current book tour has been in reality, a
trial run. It has been overwhelming
successful. The media and the public
gushes over her every move. With the
backing and blessing of Oprah [which she’ll undoubtedly get] her odds of
winning against any opponent are outstanding.
Obama, Clinton and Alinsky - radical connections
Unless you've been living under a rock for the past decade, you've surely heard of Barack Obama's connections with radicals such as race-baiting, America-hating Reverend Jeremiah Wright and unrepentant terrorists William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, and probably Nation of Islam's Louis Farrakhan, another darling of the Democrats.
Another radical connection you may not have heard of is Saul Alinsky, called the "father of community organizing" in modern America. Many people have been asking, "What the heck is 'community organizing?'" We found this definition: community organizing is the political practice of organizing communities to act in their own common self-interest. This is typically accomplished through agitation. Saul Alinsky is credited with coining the phrase, "Think globally, act locally."
In the opening paragraph of his book, Rules for Radicals, published in 1971 (the year before his death), Alinsky says, "What follows is for those who want to change the world from what it is to what they believe it should be. [Sound familiar?] The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power. Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it away."
In a letter to the editor of The Boston Globe published on August 31, 2008, Alinsky's son David gushed about how well Obama had learned his father's teachings
Clinton wrote her honors thesis at Wellesley College on his work and Obama’s first years in Chicago were spent as a community organizer with a group that based their methods on his teachings
While
writing her thesis on Alinsky, Clinton had the opportunity to interview him
personally on several occasions. That connection led him to offer her a job at
his newly formed Industrial Areas Foundation, which she turned down in order to
study law at Yale.
While
Clinton and Obama incorporated some of Alinsky’s teachings, they both had
critiques for his approach as well. Dedman articulated some of Clinton’s and
summarizes with this:
“I
agreed with some of Alinsky’s ideas,” she explained in “Living History,” her
2003 biography, “particularly the value of empowering people to help
themselves. But we had a fundamental disagreement. He believed you could change
the system only from the outside. I didn’t.”
A Parting Thought or Two…
Entropy The
idea of entropy comes from a principle of
thermodynamics dealing with energy. It usually refers to the idea that
everything in the universe eventually moves from order to disorder, and entropy is
the measurement of that change.
Economist
Stephen Moore told Fox Business that when the Fed raises interest rates “they should
all be fired for economic malpractice”…We
agree!
Yours for a brighter season,
Bruce ‘the Poor Man!’
