Different track than either Cuomo, Omarosa, or Mueller. Yesterday, Rush Limbaugh was talking about the United States’ economy. Rush said that currently there is a 9 month wait to take delivery on a new semi-truck. “It’s the economy, stupid.” Seems like the Dems once used that mantra for a Presidential campaign. Yeah, it is. The economy is booming and a big indicator is this backlog of new truck orders.

I drive in around 4am and there's a lot more truck traffic than 4 years ago.

Every time I go to Home Depot I am amazed at the number of new trucks. Even I bought one.

Sarah Sanders:

Historically, former heads of intelligence and law enforcement agencies have been allowed to retain access to classified information after their government service so that they can consult with their successors regarding matters about which they may have special insights and as a professional courtesy. Neither of these justifications supports Mr. Brennan‘s continued access to classified information.

Additionally, Mr. Brennan has recently leveraged his status as a former high-ranking official with access to highly sensitive information to make a series of unfounded and outrageous allegations — wild outbursts on the Internet and television — about this administration. Mr. Brennan‘s lying and recent conduct, characterized by increasingly frenzied commentary, is wholly inconsistent with access to the nation’s most closely held secrets, and facilitates the very aim of our adversaries, which is to sow division and chaos.

“More broadly, the issue of Mr. Brennan‘s security clearance raises larger questions about the practice of former officials maintaining access to our nation’s most sensitive secrets long after their time in government has ended,”

“Such access is particularly inappropriate when former officials have transitioned into highly partisan positions and seek to use real or perceived access to sensitive information to validate their political attacks. Any access granted to our nation’s secrets should be in furtherance of national, not personal, interests.”

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

it is a shame that the WH correspondents make the Sarah Sanders briefings a circus of nonsense.

She is really good. Her value to the administration may be way underrated.

I work for a company that manufactures parts for OEM's manufacturers. We supply many different markets like Ag, Forestry, Trucking, etc. One customer of ours is a supplier to the trucking industry. A large percentage of the U-Joints used in the trucking industry are made by us.

When new equipment is going to be built, orders for parts will start coming in six to eight months before said equipment is built.

Our orders started coming in about two or three weeks after President Trump was elected. We are currently working three shifts; sometimes six days a week. We have been hiring two to three new people every week but are fast approaching the maximum capacity that our plant can produce. We are now afraid that we will have to start turning customers away.

Manufacturers in our area are all having manpower problems. There are just not enough able bodies (of those who want to work) left in our area. I see Help Wanted signs everywhere in town; from grocery stores to restaurants to manufacturers.

Don't know if it's coincidence or not, but the amount of train traffic around here has probably doubled (or more) in the past year-and-a-half as opposed to what we had previously.

I don't see a marked increase in trucks, however.

President Trump tweets (today)

Disgraced and discredited Bob Mueller and his whole group of Angry Democrat Thugs spent over 30 hours with the White House Councel, only with my approval, for purposes of transparency. Anybody needing that much time when they know there is no Russian Collusion is just someone

....looking for trouble. They are enjoying ruining people’s lives and REFUSE to look at the real corruption on the Democrat side - the lies, the firings, the deleted Emails and soooo much more! Mueller’s Angry Dems are looking to impact the election. They are a National Disgrace!

Where’s the Collusion? They made up a phony crime called Collusion, and when there was no Collusion they say there was Obstruction (of a phony crime that never existed). If you FIGHT BACK or say anything bad about the Rigged Witch Hunt, they scream Obstruction!

I hope John Brennan, the worst CIA Director in our country’s history, brings a lawsuit. It will then be very easy to get all of his records, texts, emails and documents to show not only the poor job he did, but how he was involved with the Mueller Rigged Witch Hunt. He won’t sue!

Everybody wants to keep their Security Clearance, it’s worth great prestige and big dollars, even board seats, and that is why certain people are coming forward to protect Brennan. It certainly isn’t because of the good job he did! He is a political “hack.”

Will Bruce Ohr, whose family received big money for helping to create the phony, dirty and discredited Dossier, ever be fired from the Jeff Sessions “Justice” Department? A total joke!

“Bruce Ohr is at the center of FALSE ALLEGATIONS which led to a multi-million dollar investigation into what apparently didn’t happen.” Darrell Issa, House Oversight. We can take out the word “apparently.”

Andrew McCarthy spells out Mueller's game plan

https://www.nationalreview.com...o-read-mind-motives/

With regard to the president, Mueller’s investigation has never been about prosecution. It has been about impeachment.

impeachment is not a legal remedy but a political one. To indict and convict, a prosecutor must establish all of the essential elements of a penal offense; but Congress is not confined to penal offenses in impeachment proceedings

A prosecutor may not legitimately charge a president with obstruction on the basis of constitutionally permissible acts, even if the prosecutor suspects they were corruptly motivated. Congress, however, may impeach the president for such acts on the theory that they are abuses of power. And to reaffirm what we have often observed, the Framers intended that presidential corruption would be addressed by Congress, not by prosecutors.

That explains the focus on the president’s state of mind. Mueller is not writing an indictment for the grand jury.

He is writing a report — one that is technically for the Justice Department, but that the special counsel knows will land in Congress’s lap. If the Democrats take the House in the midterms by a wide enough margin, they will decide that the president’s purported corruption is impeachable — even if he has not acted on his allegedly corrupt motives, and even if there is no indictable offense.

That makes these elections awfully important, doesn’t it!




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Mueller and his gang of 13 angry Democrats are dragging out the fruitless investigation for one principal purpose: to influence the 2018 elections. Mueller claims to be investigating a Trump-Russia effort to influence the 2016 election, but with no evidence of that found, he’s doing worse things himself.

No doubt about it. Whatever he might have, if anything, will not come to light until a few weeks before the election. Then, he'll deny that all of this was politically motivated.

The Donald should have fired his ass a year ago.
