Putin Shuts All Trump's Businesses In Russia And Across Europe.

That is the headline that would shock the world, but it will never happen because a President Trump will fold like a cheap suit and give America away to Putin on a silver platter.

Donald Trump has the most wealth of any past presidential candidate invested in Europe, and Putin controls Europe. This makes Trump the highest security risk ever presented or personally faced by a sitting president.

It is no secret that Putin has threatened European countries in the past and he holds too much power by way of his supply lines of fossil fuels.

From Wikipedia...'The Russian Federation supplies a significant volume of fossil fuels and is the largest exporter of oil and natural gas to the European Union. In 2007, the European Union imported from Russia 185 million tonnes of crude oil, which accounted for 32.6% of total oil import, and 100.7 million tonnes of oil equivalent of natural gas, which accounted 38.7% of total gas import.[1]...'

'In 2007, 38.7% of the European Union's natural gas total imports and 24.3% of consumed natural gas originated from Russia.[1][5] As of 2009, Russian natural gas was delivered to Europe through 12 pipelines, of which three were direct pipelines (to Finland, Estonia and Latvia), four through Belarus (to Lithuania and Poland) and five through Ukraine (to Slovakia, Romania, Hungary and Poland).[5] In 2011, an additional pipeline, Nord Stream (directly to Germany through the Baltic Sea), opened.[6]'


'The largest importers of Russian gas in the European Union are Germany and Italy, accounting together for almost half of the EU gas imports from Russia. Other larger Russian gas importers (over 5 billion cubic meter per year) in the European Union are France, Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, Austria and Slovakia.[7][8] The largest non-EU importers of Russian natural gas are Ukraine, Turkey and Belarus.[7]'

Trump could have billions invested across Europe and there is no way to stop the Russian strongman Putin from financially ruining Trump, so naturally Trump will succumb to Putin's threat to bankrupt him,  and will become Putin's puppet in the White house, as Hillary predicted. Trump does not have the will to refuse Putin. 


Trump does not have the resources to go up against a country... Putin has the power of Russia behind him, while Trump is just a businessman. Trump cannot use the power of the White house to wage war against Russia for personal business.

If behind closed doors, Putin orders the European union members to shutter Trump businesses, those countries are helpless to resist such orders as Trumps businesses are not important to the running or existence of these countries. Trump is just one of millions of businesses in Europe so no one will care if he goes out of business.

This is the greatest threat to America and the White House now, as we have never had a President who has so much wealth to lose and is such an easy target to blackmail...

Tea Party Popularity Drops

Like the age old story of everything that waxes and wanes...so too the Tea Party has joined the ranks of all that have gone before, that have fallen from Grace. Am I being too Dramatic?...Maybe... The bottom line is that there  is a lot of Buyer's Remorse going on here. The question on everyone's lips is...Why? Why has the party fallen from the good Graces of all who have left...and in this case that is a considerable amount...and increasing.


The answer is as palin...er... plain as Day...One can see Russia from her house...One wasn't a witch...One is Batshit crazy...one sees Headless Corpses...one is intent on Dismantling the Unions and he refuses to hear anything about Collective Bargaining... and that is just the A List...there are many more... All of them are intent on giving Bigger and Bigger breaks to the Super Wealthy Two percent and the Multi Billion Dollar Corporations while the real Tea Party Faithful get swept away in stupid laws that are meant to squeeze the last droplet of Blood from them and leave them in the throws of poverty for Generations to come... keeping them slaves to the system of the Rich getting Richer while the Middle Class is systematically eliminated.


The Tea Party faithful got what they wished for... they won the seats they wanted in the last election and they got the promises made to them. They did not realize those same promises would also make them feel the bitter slice...or should I say stab... of dismay and treachery that they thought would have visited only the "other side"...the Democrats and their faithful.


There are now thousands of ex Tea Partiers being foreclosed on...being let go from Companies who are taking Jobs to foreign Countries, their Social programs, Education programs and everything they depend on to live a decent life are being taken away in Draconian "Cuts" that minutely reduce the Deficit...all because the Republicans are sabotaging everything the President is doing to try to bring us out of this recession. The Frum Forum gives a good account of the falling numbers, and I am sure there is more to come soon...as their Dwindling numbers at the Tea Party Rally on Thursday March 31st in Washington showed.

CLASS WARFARE, SLAVES TO THE WEALTHY, BY GEORGE CARLIN

Well, everyone has now seen how badly this "Bush Tax Cuts" debate has gone so far...there was no debate. The Republicans said ...massage my shoulder will ya? The Democrats are now the masseur, massaging the Elephant's shoulder, putting lotion on his feet...and kissing where the sun don't shine... cleaning up their shit, adding at least 700 Billion dollars more to the deficit... This shit certainly leaves a bad taste in our mouths. That is some shit...


My head is spinning, I am gravely hurt by the President's speech on Monday December 6th, where he seems to have bowed down to his aggressor who wants the poor in this country to become slaves to the wealthy, to have no dignity and pride in themselves or their families...their Parents...Their Spouses...Their children. I feel like I am in the days of slavery all over again...I feel the pain and anguish they...the Slaves must have felt...stripped of every shred of self worth, pride and indeed Human dignity and decency, as if "We the people" are not worth it, and no one gives a damn.


Certainly I wonder sometimes if our Leaders don't give a damn, because it appears they are not willing to fight for us. We did not elect leaders to go there and surrender for us, If we wanted to surrender, or be defeated,  we would have sent someone who we knew was an idiot or a coward...we didn't. We sent educated people, who we think are capable of getting the job done, who are willing to fight, because when the fighting is done, we would be assured that what we get would have been the best we could get...But right now, the Democrats are not fighting, they are just massaging the Elephant's shoulders, following their orders, and being a Disappointment to the American People...the 85% of us who did not vote in November, for the Republicans.


Maybe I am wrong, or misinformed...maybe there was a fight that took place and "We the People" just did not see it, did not know it, because it was behind closed doors, against very powerful entities, Foreign and Domestic. I have often said the President is privy to more information than I am...so maybe he knows what he is doing more than I know what he is doing. Maybe he saw the light at the end of the tunnel, and I am just slogging through the darkness looking for a helping hand out of poverty. 


 I am anything but speechless, but there is a traffic jam...a bottleneck in my throat, because there are too many words trying to come out at the same time...it's choking me...so I will let the Late and always Great Mr. George Carlin do my talking for me...because I am really hurting by the Democrat's surrender without a fight...Some say The President paid the RANSOM...I agree with that, I understand the hard road...but it still sticks in my craw...


Stephen Colbert says he can't wait for the Taxes to stay the same so he can create all those jobs...Stephen got it right...no one in the Wealthy Country Clubs will be creating jobs...maybe we can give away Social Security while we are at it...I just had to add Stephen's video as well. Let me clarify, I Blame the Republicans for Blackmailing us, I do not blame the President for making the best deal he thinks we can try to get, rather than getting nothing at all... 


I think upon further reflection, I will support the President...my President...because he can do for me what I cannot do for myself...secure a better future for my children. The old people have a saying...Stoop to Conquer... so I will Stoop with my President...so we will get stronger and rise higher later.

Is America Dead?

Kumbaya my ass!!  ...I just wanted to start with that. The verdict is in...It is the general feeling that the President is a house negro. You can put your own meaning to that, but it generally means he will do what he is told by his Master, which in this case is Corporate America. The President is now being thought of as being "Republican Light"...sort of like what light beer is to real beer. How is he a "Republican Light" you ask?

 Well he raised more Corporate money than Hillary Clinton in 2007 when running against her. He also hired Larry Summers, the same guy who is thought to have deregulated Wall St during the Clinton years...and the same guy that Dr. Henry Kissinger said should be given a White House position...This is a snippet of what Wikipedia has to say..."As Treasury Secretary, Summers led the Clinton Administration's opposition to tax cuts proposed by the Republican Congress in 1999. Also during his stint in the Clinton Administration, Summers was successful in pushing for capital gains tax cuts. During the California energy crisis of 2000, then-Treasury Secretary Summers teamed with Alan Greenspan and Enron executive Kenneth Lay to lecture California Governor Gray Davis on the causes of the crisis, explaining that the problem was excessive government regulation. Under the advice of Kenneth Lay, Summers urged Davis to relax California's environmental standards in order to reassure the markets." I recently wrote an article titled America died last night...seem's like it is coming to fruition.

In a kitchen you do not use a butter knife to chop your meats and vegetables, in the same way you cannot expect to put a Priest in the White house and expect him to deal with Wall St with an iron fist. You need a man who can play both sides of the aisle, so he can juggle and keep both Wall st. and Main st. functioning. The President said as much when he suggested that if we wise up and realize that he is a Corporatist in disguise, we must rise up and make him do what we need him to do....and he is willing, but he is waiting until we demand as much of him, with our actions.  He can't go against the Corporations without our demands being his reason to do such an act. He is walking a fine line between Wall st and Main st, because he has no choice, and the argument is that if he does not appease his Corporate Financiers a bit, they threaten to pull out and crash the economy. He has to make Wall st work for Main st, by our instruction.

Now I would like to point out that some want Tax cuts for the wealthy Multi Millionaires, the Billionaires and by extension the Corporations,  in order for them to create jobs. Well they are the ones who have been shipping the jobs away, outsourcing jobs while they receive their tax cuts. The Corporations are also accused of encouraging the immigration problem by offering substandard jobs for little pay, while collecting tax breaks to generate these jobs. It is said that the immigrants are taking jobs that American workers want.

To put it simply, The Corporations are causing many of the problems we face today. The tax cuts they are enjoying and lobbying for are not being used to generate jobs, it is being used to reinvest and generate jobs in foreign countries. They are firing the immigrant workers who do get their status legally changed to work, and replacing that now jobless immigrant with another undocumented worker.

Walmart and other companies will bring products from China costing them 5 cents while the same product produced in America costs 50 cents. The way to stop this is for the Customs practices to change so that the imported Chinese products are charged a Tariff of 45 cents to level the cost factor for the Companies. This way the companies will not hesitate to produce the products right here in America. This is also a way for America to generate some extra cash, and may even help to lessen the tax burden on the American people.

What happens when a drug pusher is arrested? There is a vacuum created and like it or not,  the pusher is soon replaced by another ambitious Free Market Capitalist. So...the answer is simple, take away the tax cuts for the rich because they are not using it to create jobs, this will save Billions... then start charging Tariffs on the imported products, which will leveling the playing field and the jobs will come back to America. If the Companies choose to leave, there will be another Ambitious Free Market Capitalist Company waiting to fill that vacuum and produce the same products and jobs here in America...with or without Tax Cuts.

This will in turn solve the Immigration problem, because we will now have 50 to 100 million jobs available as a result...for example, a Car Manufacturer needs dozens of other industries to make parts and supplies to support it. That means thousands of jobs just in that one Product. Think of this happening on a massive, Country-wide scale...This would create the need for both the unemployed Americans and all the immigrants to fill those jobs.

 As a side note, when we produce these millions of jobs, we will also have a greater need for more Teachers, Nurses, Doctors and a whole Technology system, and a much larger Transportation and Logistics system to sustain the growth we will experience, that translates to thousands more skilled jobs and millions more to support those jobs, which will again bring America to the top of the Global Food Chain and use up all of our unemployed. The ripple effect will hit the Agriculture belt like a Hurricane and we will again produce more foods and revitalize our Farming Industry.  The failing infrastructure will then need to be rebuilt, thus adding more jobs.

The Problem started with the Corporations...and we should start there, to bring our country back...back to where the people have a voice and our children have a future. Just in case you think the Corporations are our best friends...watch this video...

American 60% Non-Voters Just Don't Give A Rats Ass?...Apparently So...


                                                                                                                                                         The NEW numbers are in, and according to the United States Election Project, There was an average of 218 Million eligible voters, out of whom an average of 40 % voted... which amounts to around 88 Million voters. This average number, if taken to mean a 50/50 split for each party, suggests that a mere average of about 44 Million voters, in effect made this election a victory for the Republican Party...a mere 20% of all eligible voters... a mere 20% steered the Country down this rabbit hole.

For those who are interested, the US Population is 308 Million people, which means that this 20% of eligible voters who were allowed to elect a Republican majority in the House is actually 14.2% of the US population....14.2%....a minuscule 14.2% of the US Population elected the House Majority...

I HAVE TO SAY...14.2% IS NOT A SHELLACKING BY ANY MEANS!! Because it means more than 85% DID NOT VOTE FOR THEM!!

The numbers further suggest that we have to "Thank" for this Republican victory...the remaining 60% of non-voters...the 130 million who did not vote. Of course "Thank" is not exactly the word this author wishes to use, but for want of a better word... we will go with "Thank." Apparently most of these non-voters thought it was not worth their time to be Patriotic and do their duty...and vote, to keep this ship upright, so they let 20% win part of the Elections and Control of the House. That is indeed a shame and I might add...they need to keep quiet when they feel the strain of unemployment and hopelessness that we know will soon come, at the hands of the Republicans... because they caused this by not voting.

We now have a very rocky road to traverse in the coming future with the Republican hands itching to grab the reins of power. We all know of the purely crazy intentions the Republicans have, of trying to repeal Health Care so that our Seniors and our kids will be rendered helpless and uninsured, due to preexisting conditions or being over 21yrs old in the case of the kids. We also know of their intentions to Sabotage and bring the efforts of the Recovery to a halt so that the President will be seen to fail in his attempt to bring the Country back from the brink of disaster... causing them to win the 2012 elections.

The sad thing is that the same 20% of voters who voted for the Republicans are going to have their Seniors and kids affected as well by the Whacky Republican ideas. They did in fact vote against themselves and their Families' interests, being none the wiser to this.

This is all part of a further attempt by Republicans to appease their Corporate masters who call the tune for the Republicans to follow. The Republicans' twisted plans can be thought of in terms of a broken down Taxi Cab in need of repairs. The mechanic wants $100 to repair the car, but in an attempt save money, the Republican owner tells the mechanic that he will not pay for repairs but will instead pay $20 storage fees per month to keep the car in the garage. The owner in the meantime loses $1000 per month, by the Taxi not being able to work and bring in an income, plus he has to find other means of transport which costs him money as well. In five months, of course, he also loses the $100 he is trying to save, with his short-sighted ideas. For further explanation...the Country is the Taxi Cab.

20% of voters for Republicans means 80% DID NOT vote for them...85% of the population...85% of The American People DID NOT vote for them...REMEMBER THAT WHEN THEY TRY TO DISTRACT YOU WITH THEIR LIES...AND THEIR SPIN OF THE TRUTH !!!

THEIR "AMERICAN PEOPLE" IS 14.2%...OUR "AMERICAN PEOPLE" IS 85% !!!

At the end of the day though, I remind you we are still one people, one country, 100% of 308 million...one America... so please be civil to each other.

One piece of advice...when anyone presents their theories and ideas...just ask them to explain HOW that plan would work...throwing around talking points is fine, if you can't back it up with facts...so remember to ask WHY...let them explain their theories. Most do not have a clue about the ideas and talking points they offer.

Respect for the President

Many pundits sound like they have better ideas about how to run this country with the plethora of problems President Obama inherited. I used to say that anyone who wants to be President after Bush, was an idiot. I said that Kerry willingly lost because he came to his senses and saw how difficult the job would be. I still think you have to be crazy to take the job, but very smart and loving really... I do not have the courage, love or conviction to do it. I think I would rather run away. If the pundits think the job is easy then they are blind. That job, after Bush, is the worst thing I can imagine. Hat's off to President Obama, he is a better man than I am. At least I am not going to bad mouth the man who is trying to give my children a future. I'm old enough, maybe I'll die of old age soon, but he is giving my kids what I can't...a better future and for that I understand and respect him...more than I do Bush and the Republicans... who took it all away. I don't hate Republicans, I never met one...they only exist in the TV, in the House and in the Senate, the rest of us are just ordinary loving folks right?...I just hate that they took away our future. Why should we re-elect them again, so they can do it to my kids one more time? I'm not that stupid.
