Crazy report for March 4 - 

 

I was out of country recently, and heard an interesting bit on a foreign TV station.  It was a 30 minute show where they discussed this idea: 

 

If American style democracy results in leadership like Trump, is that type of democracy really worth pursuing?

 

A provocative and disturbing question.

Well, yeah, but not Russian Style: Christian style.

Russians are generally Orthodox Christians, very conservative.   Just like your favorite VP, Mike Pence....

 

[UncleVinnys]

A bit scary! But this is a passing phase.

Already the rule of law is catching up with folks like

      Manafort, who sells out to the Russians,

      Kushner, who uses his position to get a $500 million loan

      Trump, who is now getting major push-back from his own party, the Intelligence services, and industry leaders.

 

There are even rumors that Kushner and Ivanka would move back to NYC.

Rumors too that Trump will grab as much money as he can then resign.     

I Don't Know.

But I don't despair either. It's all unfolding according to divine plan.

Crazy Report for March 21 - 

 

At this point, it appears that a portion of American voters may qualify as "crazy".  There is now clear evidence that a number of people used social media to manipulate voter preferences prior to the 2016 election.  The bad news is that much of the manipulation was based on untruths and fake news stories.  And the crazy part is much of the voting public tokk the news from social media as true and correct and never tried to confirm the stories by looking at other sources.  People who were victimized by this were either crazy or dumb.  You decide...

GET OVER IT: Maybe you missed something. Trump won the Presidency with ZERO help from Russia. No proof whatsoever. Just lies. Crooked Hillary lost in spite of fixing the primary against Bernie, employing the Superdelegate scam, getting debate questions in advance, corrupting the DNC, getting millions of votes from illegals, and spending at least twice as much as President Trump. It had nothing to do with Russia. Be an adult and accept the truth. You had a crappy, corrupt, criminal candidate with ZERO personality... oh, and her husband is a rapist. Stop crying like a female dog. Nobody likes adults who whine. Maybe YOU are the dumb one? Checkmate, pal..

Hey Tio Vinny, if the Trump family troubles you so much what about this family..........?   Never hear you complain about them these last 12 years....  

 

 

7 Things You Need To Know About The Clinton Foundation

 

1. The Clinton Foundation was established in 2001. Former President Bill Clinton said that the foundation aimed "to alleviate poverty, improve global health, strengthen economies, and protect the environment." In reality, it became a way for the Clintons and their cronies to enrich themselves.

 

2. For an organization that is supposedly a charity, the Clinton Foundation spent very little money on "direct aid." IRS documents showed that the Foundation raised over $500 million from 2009-2012, and yet the Clinton Foundation only spent $75 million on "programmatic grants."

"The other $425 million was allocated as follows: more than $25 million went for travel expenses; almost $110 million for employee salaries and benefits; and $290 million for 'other expenses,'" reports Discover The Networks.

These numbers were similar in the foundation's 2013 tax returns, which revealed that the Clinton Foundation raised over $140 million but only used $9 million in direct aid, according to the New York Post:

 

3. The Clintons have listed their foundation as a charity for tax write-off purposes. Bill and Hillary Clinton claimed $10.2 million in charitable tax breaks from 2001-2008 due to the Clinton Foundation. In 2015, $1 million out of Bill and Hillary's $1,042,000 in charitable deductions was due to the Clinton Family Foundation, which is separate from the Clinton Foundation but still run by the sleazy political power couple.

 

4. The Clinton Foundation's donors include countries with awful records on women's rights. Via Geraghty, these countries include:

$1-5 million from Qatar.
$5-10 million from Kuwait.
$10-$25 million from Saudi Arabia.

 

5. The Clinton Foundation was used for the Clintons to provide quid pro quo deals to their donors. Some examples include:

The Clinton Foundation used the Haiti earthquake to provide "aid" to the Haitians that was really nothing more than payoffs to Clinton donors that did very little to help the Haitians, as Dinesh D'Souza explains here.
Clinton Foundation donor Joyce Aboussie asked top Clinton aide Huma Abedin in June 2009 for Peabody Energy, a coal company Aboussie consulted for, to have a meeting with Clinton, and Abedin responded: "I hope we can make something work."
Also in 2009, U2 lead singer Bono, also a donor to the Clinton Foundation, wanted "to do a linkup with the International Space Station on every show during the tour this year," according to newly released emails. Abedin and Clinton Foundation director Doug Band didn't know who to talk to in NASA about it, but as Politico notes, U2's most recent tour did feature "a video from astronauts aboard the International Space Station."
The Clinton Foundation gave $2 million to one of Bill Clinton's special friends, as The Daily Wire reported here.
Hillary Clinton's State Department approved of a deal that gave Russia 20 percent of U.S. uranium reserves because it benefited Clinton Foundation donors.
Clinton's State Department also approved of "$165 billion worth of commercial arms sales to 20 nations whose governments have given money to the Clinton Foundation," including "Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Qatar," according to International Business Times.

 

6. Numerous journalists and media organizations donated to the Clinton Foundation. According to Politico, these include ABC anchor George Stephanopoulos, NBC Universal and Time Warner Inc, the parent company of CNN. PBS News anchor Judy Woodruff also donated to the Clinton Foundation's relief fund for Haiti, which, as mentioned earlier, was really a slush fund to benefit Clinton Foundation donors.

 

7. The Clinton Foundation pledged to clear any foreign donations with the State Department before Clinton became the Secretary of State. And yet they didn't clear a $500,000 donation from the government of Algeria in 2010, which is why their pledge to stop taking foreign and corporate donations if Hillary Clinton if elected president cannot be taken seriously.

Crazy Report for March 22 - 

 

Today, the president announced that we need to raise tariffs with China.  Between his announcement and the closing bell, the DOW lost 724 points.  It shows the president's ignorance of how markets operate and react to political news.  Had he spent a little time with his advisors, he would have figured out that tariffs can be raised in ways that don't disturb markets.  Graduated tariff increases is the best approach.  You start with small increases like 2% this year, 3% the next year, an so on.  then markets don't go into the toilet.  The abrupt decisions made by this man reveal his ignorance, naivete, and arrogance.  He is truly crazy.

Eight years ago, Republican values were Free Trade, Fiscal Restraint, and Family Values.  

 

Today, Republican values are:  Draconian Tariffs, Ballooning Budgets, and Screwing Porn Stars When Your Wife is Pregnant.

 

And how do Republicans explain the transformation?   "It was eight years of Obama!"

Crazy report for April 7 (copied from another thread) - 

 

Trump is playing with fire on the tariff issues.  He has no finesse, no awareness of the subtleties, and no understanding of global economics.  Instead, he's rattling markets, investors, and playing poker with a large number of jobs in this country.  Jobs in the states that got him elected.

 

I am more convinced every day that he's pulling these stunts to be certain that he doesn't get reelected in 2020.  He hates his job, can't exercise the total control he could in the business world, and may finally be realizing that he has no clue on how any of this works.  He'll do whatever it takes to avoid another four years.  Even if it means he takes the country down the toilet with  him.  He's no stranger to bankruptcy.

 

The bottom line here is that Trump is playing a game of "My D*ck is Bigger than Yours" with other countries on the tariff issues.   And according to Stormy Daniels, he's not equipped to play this game.

Ironic, isn't it?!!      

He has all the power, all the fame, all the wealth, and yet he's utterly bitter and miserable.

Indeed....!   Take a good look below at what happens when you have no morals or spiritual principles......!

 

[UncleVinnys]

Kind of encouraged.

With the #MeToo movement, with the youth favoring gun control,

and the Blue Wave coming in November, I see a world with a lot less violence,

a lot less abuse, just around the corner.

 

              

[Chris]

Unless you can have your "youth" vote with their phones you are in trouble.....   No blue wave coming....   The MSM is just showing you one side of today's youth.  Actually the youth that are conservative are getting shut out of any press coverage because they are not going along with the script.  Your "blue wave" is being scripted by the MSM, Soros, anti gun organizations, and the democratic party.   Just 7 more years of MAGA for you...!   Chris
