Dear Lord! — Will we [I][B]ever[/B][/I] be rid of the Clintons?

Chelsea Clinton reportedly being groomed for congressional run

[B]Clint[/B], now will come good times for USA and the world?

This question is similar to the one you asked 4 days ago.

At that time, I gave you my opinion. It hasn’t changed. For now, it’s all I have in the way of opinions.

I’m not a fortune-teller. I can’t predict the future.

In a few years, history will provide the answers to both of your questions.

I believe that some profound changes are coming in the way the U.S. government is run.

And I [I]hope[/I] that these changes will bring prosperity and peace — the “good times” you refer to.

Edit (Monday 11/14):

Here is [B]a good article[/B] from yesterday’s [I]Washington Post[/I] on the rejection of the Establishment in many countries around the world. Donald Trump is part of this worldwide movement, but he didn’t start it.

The writers at the [I]Washington Post[/I] — a left-leaning newspaper not known for saying positive things about conservatives or their agendas — are clearly wringing their hands over the Trump victory, and its broader implications. We conservatives, on the other hand, can celebrate the fact that anti-establishment sentiment is gaining traction around the world.

In this article, you’ll find a more complete answer to your question, than the one I gave you.

The following article by Thomas Lifson appeared in [I]The American Thinker[/I] on April 30, 2015. It gives a brief explanation of a portion of the money-laundering scam run by The Clinton Crime Family Foundation, using offshore collection points to receive untraceable donations to the Foundation from unidentified foreign donors.

[B]The Clinton Foundation as a money-laundering scheme[/B]

As far as I’ve been able to determine, this is an original-source document.

Nine days before the November election, a similar piece appeared in a blog called [I]GlockTalk,[/I] and was subsequently emailed around in the Pro-Second-Amendment community. This piece purports to be a transcript of an interview with Dr. Charles Krauthammer on the Bill O’Reilly show.

Some people have questioned the authenticity of this transcript, and have claimed that Dr. Krauthammer has not confirmed that these are his words. With that disclaimer in mind, you might nevertheless be curious to read this blog version, and you can do so HERE.

Justice is served by the appointment of Jeff Sessions

MSN Editor’s note: The opinions in this article are the author’s, as published by our content partner, and do not necessarily represent the views of the lefties at MSN or Microsoft, or the views of the wussy snowflakes who typically read our crap.

Donald Trump’s appointment of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) as attorney general does a lot to signal the president-elect wants a no-nonsense, by-the-book Justice Department. Sessions has been my friend for 30 years and my senator for 20 years. His Justice Department will not meddle with local governments, it will be respectful and deferential to state legislatures and it won’t look to make trouble with universities, school systems or private businesses.

Importantly, Sessions’s appointment tells the United States’ beleaguered law enforcement agencies help is on the way. It also shows Trump wants to strike a blow to the corrosive, pretentious, sanctimonious political correctness his voters soundly rejected on Nov. 8.

By making the appointment, Trump is confirming he dismisses the residual effects of the decades-old smear campaign the Democrats ran against Sessions when his nomination to be a federal judge was before the Senate for confirmation in 1986. It turns out the gods — with Donald Trump’s help — are continuing to vindicate Sessions, who was attacked with condescending stereotypes Southerners and fair-minded people everywhere reject. Because of the Democrats’ efforts to discredit him, Sessions wasn’t confirmed — but that same man was elected to the Senate, served with distinction on the Senate Judiciary Committee and now, it appears, will be America’s next attorney general.

It is also safe to assume that Sessions will be in the first chair when it comes to advising Trump on judicial appointments, and you can be sure that he will recommend real judicial scholars — proven conservative judges and lawyers who have practical experience and a common-sense approach to interpreting the law as it is written and as it was intended. Laws will be enforced — not created — in a Sessions Justice Department.

Jeff Sessions will be one of the adults in the room. He is tireless, studious, good-natured and a patriot.
He does Alabama proud. Roll Tide!

With 304 votes, Electoral College seals Donald Trump’s election as president

Los Angeles Times article

After all the Democrat attempts to intimidate and threaten Electors pledged to Trump
— in order to pressure them to switch their votes to Hillary Clinton —
Donald Trump actually increased his lead in the electoral count by 3 votes over Hillary Clinton.

Trump’s edge after the General Election (November 8): 306 - 232 = 74 electoral votes.

Trump’s edge after the Electoral College vote (December 19): 304 - 227 = 77 electoral votes.

Two Trump Electors failed to vote for Trump. But, 5 Clinton Electors failed to vote for her.

Not the outcome desired by the Democrats who bombarded Trump Electors with
hate-mail, menacing phone calls, intimidating internet postings, and death threats.

The lunatic fringe of the Democrat Party is not populated by rational people.

.

Most lunatic fringes, Republican or Democrat, are populated by people who may be linked to moon phases.

Hillary Clinton won the popular vote with a margin of 2.8 million votes,
if you count the 3 million votes cast by illegal aliens.

The Islamo-Fascist Caliphate
claims responsibility for the terrorist attack in Berlin

AP Article

Your “god” must be so proud of you sub-humans.
Ollie Ollie Akbar

.

How did the United States come to be the world’s policeman?

Why is the United States responsible for the security of Europe and Japan?

Why do Europe and Japan and several other “dependents” of the United States
refuse to shoulder the lion’s share of the cost of their own defense?

Now that we have essentially mortgaged the future of our children and grandchildren
well into the next century, by paying far more than our fair share of the cost of maintaining world peace,
how can we shift the burden onto those countries that we have been defending for seventy years?

These questions are addressed in the following video, [I][B]American Umpire,[/B][/I]
which is a co-production of Shell Studios in La Mesa California, and WETA in Washington, D.C.,
and is based on the book [I]American Umpire[/I] by Texas A & M history professor Elizabeth Cobbs.

The Islamo-Fascist Caliphate
claims responsibility for the terrorist attack in Istanbul, Turkey

[U]AP Article[/U] —

IS makes unusual claim of responsibility for Turkey attack

[U]Excerpt[/U] —

ISTANBUL (AP) — The Islamic State group on Monday made an unusual claim of responsibility for a major terrorist attack in Turkey, saying a “soldier of the caliphate” carried out the mass shooting at an Istanbul nightclub that killed 39 people as they welcomed the new year…

In its claim, IS said the nightclub attack was aimed at Christians celebrating a pagan holiday, suggesting a symbolic choice of target that can be justified to radical Sunni Muslim supporters as punishment of sinners. But in reality, many of the victims hailed from majority-Muslim nations in the Middle East.

…The President-Elect …

… and the President-Reject…

The power-dynamic in this meeting was obvious — Obama could not even make eye-contact.

.

Maybe a little unfair - the above still was at 2.25mins - full eye contact made between both men at 2.23 and 2.24 mins when they shook hands.

[I]"This was a meeting that was going to last for maybe 10 or 15 mins, and we were just going to get to know each other, we had never met each other.

I have great respect, the meeting lasted for almost an hour and a half. and it could have, as far as I’m concerned, it could have gone on for a lot longer. We discussed a lot of situations, some wonderful and some difficulties.

I very much look forward to dealing with the President in the future, including counsel."[/I]

Quote from President-elect Trump following that meeting.

So, just have watched all the Washington stuff, takes me back awhile, I remember well those words of “America great again”.

Ronald Reagan remains a happy memory, one of the good guys in a ever shrinking good guy world, he set out to make a difference - and that he did.

This side of the Atlantic there was some media hype regarding ‘B’ movies, but mostly it was disregarded, Reagan was seen as a Statesman, a force for what is right.

A US/UK relationship was re-born that was reminiscent of FDR and Churchill.

Sunday past I visited RAF Greencastle, immediately upon construction in 1942 it was handed over to USAAF and renamed AAFStn237 ( Americans liked to use numbers instead of names), I gazed at the broken concrete now used by local farmers for wall boundaries, I remembered how my Mother spoke of Eisenhower and his visit in 1944, her stories of those ‘Yanks’ and their antics, I could see the grass grow over what remains of the runways, and marvel how the Nazis never found it.

Then tonight I watch ITN, a major UK news channel - the focus shook me some - his twitter was ‘America First’. ‘Protectionism’. ‘Borders’. The day internationalism died. Europe be warned - the 1930’s are back"

He was reporting from Moscow on prime time here, how it is that the Russians are rejoicing, the likely break up of NATO and the EU.

Then I recall an old saying, well worth remembering in the Kremlin - be careful in what you wish for.

All blessings to the new President and America.
